BEFORE THE HEARING EXAMINER FOR THE CITY OF AUBURN
Phil Olbrechts, Hearing Examiner
RE: River Glen Preliminary Plat
Preliminary Plat FINDINGS OF FACT, CONCLUSIONS
OF LAW AND FINAL DECISION
File Nos. PLT19-0007
OVERVIEW
The Applicant requests approval of a preliminary plat for a 12 -lot single-family
residential subdivision of a 1.73 -acre parcel located at 1907 2nd Street Southeast. The
plat is approved subject to conditions.
ORAL TESTIMONY
Note: This hearing summary is provided as a courtesy to those who would benefit from a general
overview of hearing testimony. The summary is not required or necessary to the decision issued by the
Hearing Examiner. No assurances are made as to completeness or accuracy. Nothing in this summary
should be construed as a finding or legal conclusion made by the Examiner or an indication of what the
Examiner found significant to his decision. Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law are issued in
separate sections of this decision.
Dustin Lawrence, City of Auburn Senior Planner, summarized the staff report. He
confirmed that Ex. 12 contained five additional staff recommended conditions to the
project. In response to Examiner questions, Mr. Lawrence confirmed that the project
area is within an aquifer protection area but that area encompasses the entire city. Best
management practices for protection of the aquifer protection area will be imposed as
part of the engineering review process. The Geotech report recommendations will be
required to be implemented as part of the approval process for final stormwater design.
Mr. Lawrence also confirmed that public works had reviewed the Geotech report and
concluded that the issue of separation between the proposed drywells and groundwater
for individual lots could be adequately addressed during engineering review of the plat.
The City also has adequate standards to ensure that adequate monumenting is
implemented during final plat review.
Trip generation for the project did not trigger the need for a level of service analysis
because, according to James Webb, City Traffic engineer, the threshold for such a
report is 30 peak hour trips and the project only generated 12 peak hour trips. Mr.
Webb had reviewed the project and found that it would not create any significant

impacts to surrounding traffic congestion. Frontage improvements will widen the street
in front of the project with a taper. Existing streets are only 20 feet wide. The required
frontage will be held to the adopted 28 -foot standard. The travel lane width will
actually remain about the same because the extra width will be used to accommodate
on -street parking. The 20 -foot wide streets of the surrounding streets are generally
consistent with City travel lane width standards.
Robert Nehring, Applicant, noted that the Applicant supports the staff
recommendation. The Applicant will be installing a water quality control device
approved by the Washington State Department of Ecology that will protect water
quality. The Geotech report did find that there was sufficient space to implement the
proposed infiltration facilities. In response to examiner questions Mr. Nehring
acknowledged that the boring upon which that conclusion was reached was only dug
in one location, but the groundwater level should be consistent throughout the entire
project site given the type of soils present. Neighboring properties will benefit by the
proposed 600 -foot sewer extension, since they will be able to connect to that main upon
paying their proportionate share. His understanding is that some of the neighbors who
are on septic have needed to connect to sewer but couldn't afford to do so on their own.
Mr. Nehring confirmed that the Applicant would be doing a latecomer's agreement for
the sewer. Mr. Nehring noted that one issue he did have with the recommended
conditions was the restriction on use of the stormwater tract for recreational use. The
Applicant intends on minimizing the size of the stormwater facility so that part of the
tract can be used for recreation. He's hoping to work out something with staff to
perhaps divide the tract into two so that one of the tracts can be used for recreation.
Mr. Nehring confirmed that the Applicant isn't required to provide the recreational
space but would like to do so. Driveway orientation will be ironed out during
construction when the size of the homes can be ascertained.
Dawnelle Knott, neighbor, stated she had not received a response to her letter ahead of
time. She wanted to know if she would have the option to connect to the extended
sewer main without the added expense of another pump station. She also wanted to
know if curb, gutter and sidewalk improvements would be limited to the road frontage
side of the project. She wanted to know if the homes would be mobile or stick built
homes.
In staff rebuttal, Jeff Dixon, City of Auburn principal planner, noted that the service
area and costs for the sewer latecomer's agreement will be determined after holding
another public hearing after approval of the preliminary plat.
James Webb, City traffic engineer, noted that the curb, gutter sidewalk would only be
on the project frontage.
Mr. Lawrence stated mobile homes are not allowed by City regulations at the project
site.

Mr. Nehring noted that the sewer lines would be dug very deep to serve as large an area
as possible and that a latecomer agreement would have a term of 20 years. The homes
will be stick -built.
EXHIBITS
The 10 exhibits identified at page 18 of the November 20, 2019 staff report were
admitted into the record during the November 20, 2019 public hearing. The following
exhibits were admitted during the hearing:
Exhibit 11: Staff power point.
Exhibit 12: 11/13/19 letter to Lawrence from Nehring
FINDINGS OF FACT
Procedural:
1. Applicant, Robert Nehring, MNM LLC, 10515 20th St SE 9125, Lake
Stevens, WA 98258.
2. Hearing. A hearing was held on the application on November 20, 2019 at
5:30 pin at Auburn City Hall, Council Chambers.
Substantive:
3. Site/Proposal Description. The Applicant requests approval of a
preliminary plat for a 12 -lot single-family residential subdivision of a 1.73 -acre parcel
located at 1907 2nd Street Southeast. The proposed lots range in size from
approximately 4,301 sq. ft. to 4,790 sq. ft. Roadways to be constructed include the on-
site approximately 185 -foot extension of U Street SE that will terminate in a cul-de-sac
with two private access tracts stemming off of it. Utility lines will be extended within
the on-site public street and private access/utility tracts to serve the lots. One, 7,366
square foot infiltration pond tract is proposed to manage the on-site stormwater.
4. Characteristics of the Area. The subdivision is surrounded by property
zoned and developed for R-7 single-family use.
5. Adverse Impacts. As conditioned, there are no significant adverse impacts
associated with the proposal. A Determination of Non -Significance (DNS) was issued
under City File No. SEP 19-0022 on August 22, 2019, see Exhibit 4. Pertinent impacts
are addressed as follows:

A. Critical Areas. The proposal will not significantly affect aquifer recharge
areas. There are no critical areas on-site except for an aquifer recharge area,
which is located over the entire City. As testified by staff, the aquifer
recharge area will be adequately protected by best management practices,
which are required as part of engineering review.
B. Drainage. The proposal will not create any adverse stormwater impacts
because the Applicant has proposed a preliminary design that staff have
determined is consistent with the City's stormwater standards. Through the
civil plan review process, the stormwater runoff from the Project will be
evaluated, treated, and detained in individual dry wells and a stormwater
facility located in Tract A, consistent with City's stormwater management
standards.
6. Adequacy of Infrastructure and Public Services. The proposal will be served by
adequate and appropriate public infrastructure. Stormwater facilities have already been
addressed in Finding of Fact No. 5 above. The preliminary design's conformance to the
City's public work standards, as has been verified by the City's public work's staff,
assures adequate of infrastructure. Final design for streets, sidewalks, storm drainage
facilities, and sewer mains will be required to meet the City's Design Standards during
engineering review and shall be required to meet and implement those standards prior
to final plat approval. These facilities will be reviewed as part of the facility extension,
grading, and civil plans to be submitted by the Applicant. The following more
specifically addresses infrastructure and services;
A. Water. The site is located within the City of Auburn water service area and as
such, the project will be required to extend water service onto the site to serve
the future lots as well as stub the water line to the western boundary of the site,
for possible future extensions to the west.
B. Sewer. The Site is located within the City of Auburn sewer service area and
will be required to extend sewer service from the intersection of V Street SE
and. 3rd Ct SE to 2nd Street SE and into the project in order to serve the future
single-family residences. The sewer will also be required to be extended to the
western boundary of the site, for possible future extensions to the west.
C. Transportation. As mitigated the proposal provides for adequate and
appropriate on and off-site transportation facilities.
The Project will be required to construct streets per ACC, Chapter 12.64A ACC
`Required Public Improvements', the City's Engineering Design Standards, and
the Comprehensive Transportation Plan. With the creation of U Street
Southeast into the site and the completion of the half street improvements along
2nd Street Southeast, the City's Transportation Division finds that there will be
no decrease in the road network level of service (LOS) standard. Additionally,
each new residence will be required to pay a traffic impact fee in place at time

of building permit issuance. Two private access roads (within Tracts B & C)
will be constructed off of the northern end of the cul-de-sac. Tract B will
provide access for Lots 5 & 6; Tract C will provide access to Lots 9 & 10.
Details of the road improvements, which are consistent or will be required to
be consistent with the City of Auburn Design Standards, are shown on the
Preliminary Plat and Civil Plans (Exhibit 6).
Based on the City's Comprehensive Transportation Plan, Functional Roadway
Classification Map, all public roadways that require improvements are
classified as "Local Residential" streets.
Written comment expressed concern over roadway width in the vicinity of the
project area. The City's transportation engineer testified that the roads that
serve the project have 20 -foot wide travel lanes, which is consistent with current
city roadway standards. There was nothing in the record to suggest that there
was anything unique about the project area that rendered the City's width
standard inadequate.
D. Schools. Adequate and appropriate provisions are made for schools and
walking conditions to and from school.
The Site is located within the Auburn School District boundary. Per the
Applicant, students residing within the project will attend: 1) Lake View
Elementary; 2) Cascade Middle School, and 3) Auburn High School.
High School students will have the ability to walls to Auburn High School via
a new sidewalk abutting the side on the north side of 2nd Street SE. The
sidewalk will continue transition to a graveled shoulder along the north side of
2nd Street SE to the west. At the intersection of T Street SE and 2nd Street SE,
the walking path will then be via an existing gravel shoulder along the east side
of T Street SE. At the intersection of E Main St and T St SE, the walking path
will be made up of an existing sidewalk along the north side of E Main St, in
which students will be able to walls west until they reach Auburn High School.
Elementary and Middle School Students will be bussed from a bus stop located
near the intersection of 2nd Street Southeast and T Street Southeast to their
respective schools. Students will have the ability to walk to the proposed bus
stop via sidewalk constructed along the north half of 2nd. Street Southeast
abutting the project site. For additional school transportation details, see Exhibit
10.
E. Parks and Open Space. Adequate and appropriate provision are made for parks
and open space as the proposal complies with all applicable requirements. No
parks or playgrounds are proposed for the Project and none are required by city
regulations. Park Impact Fees will be paid at the time of building permit
issuance (currently $3,500.00 per unit). The Fenster Nature Park is located 0.18

miles to the southeast of the Project. Fenster Nature Park provides open space,
gravel trails, and access to the Green River.
F. Police and Fire Protection. Police and Fire services will serve the proposed
development and will be provided by the Valley Regional Fire Authority and
the City of Auburn Police Department. Fire impact fees imposed during
building permit review mitigate demand placed on fire services and facilities.

DECISION
The proposed preliminary plat complies with all applicable requirements for the reasons
identified above, subject to the following conditions of approval:
Condition 1.
Prior to final plat approval, sewer service shall be extended from the intersection of V
Street SE and 3`d Ct SE to 2"d Street SE and into the project in order to serve the fixture
single-family residences of the plat. The sewer will also be required to be extended
within 2" d ST SE to the western boundary of the site, for possible future extensions to
the west, by others. The proposed sewer extension must be configured so that each of

the lots can connect directly to a public sewer main or manhole. Shared side sewers are
not allowed by City Engineering Design Standards unless a deviation is applied for and
secured .
Condition 2.
Prior to final plat approval, Tract A shall be identified as a Stormwater Tract dedicated
to the City of Auburn for maintenance and operation. To avoid compatibility and
operation conflicts, no portion of Tract A will be available for recreation purposes; the
purpose and limitation on the use of Tract A shall be identified on the Final Plat . If
adequate room is available the Applicant is authorized upon staff approval to divide
Tract A into two tracts prior to final plat approval with one of the new tracts dedicated
to recreational use.
Condition 3.
Prior to final plat approval, fencing consistent with current City standards shall be
provided around the perimeter of the stormwater pond on Tract A, the location of which
to be reviewed and determined during the review and approval of the public facility
extension plans (PAC review). A landscaping plan, consistent with City Engineering
Design Standards shall be included with the public facility extension plans. A note shall
be placed on the Final Plat indicating that the HOA shall be responsible for maintenance
of those portions of the stormwater Tract A outside of the fenced perimeter of the
stormwater pond, as determined by the City Engineer. Additionally, the Covenants,
Conditions, and Restrictions (CC&Rs) that are reviewed and approved by the City at
Final Plat application, and as recorded thereafter, shall establish the HOA's
responsibility for regular landscape maintenance.
Condition 4.
Tracts B and C are private access and utility tracts and will be owned and maintained
by the HOA. A note shall be placed on the Final Plat specifying that the HOA is
responsible for maintenance including associated retaining walls (if proposed),
walkways, signage, and other associated features.
Condition 5.
The comments and markups from City of Auburn staff, included on the Preliminary Plat
& Civil Plan drawings, prepared by Pacific Coast Surveyors & Sound Design
Engineering, Inc., dated October 2, 2019, Exhibit 6, shall be addressed as part of the
Public Facility Extension (FAC) plan review and approval and Final Plat review.
Condition 6.
Driveways to Lots must meet access tracts and public ROW at an angle of 90°±5°. Lot
11 does not meet this requirement. Note that for Lots 6 and 9, their orientation may pose
an issue with meeting this requirement. The plat layout of the lots will be required to be
modified meet this requirement as part of the FAC review.

Per COA Engineering Design Standard 10.01.5, driveway connections to the access
tracts shall be configured such that vehicles backing out of the driveways complete their
maneuvers within the access tract without entering another property. Lots 5 and 10 do
not meet this requirement. The plat layout of the lots will be required to meet this
requirement as part of the Public Facility Extension (FAC) plan review and approval .
Condition 8.
Driveway spacing requirements from their respective property lines are not satisfied
around the cul-de-sac. A drop apron would not provide a location with the appropriate
curbing required for the hydrant and lighting. If Lot 4 will access U Street SE and not
Tract B, the driveway width will likely be restricted to 11 ft. Lot 7 may also require a
restricted driveway width or the City may require Lots 7 and 8 to share a driveway.
Please be advised that the plat layout will be required to address these issues as part of
the Public Facility Extension (FAC) plan review and approval.
Condition 9.
It is unclear if Lot 4 will be taking access from Tract B. Per City of Auburn Design
Standard 10.01.5, shared driveways for three or more units must be 26.5 feet in width
and include a sidewalk. As such, either Tract B will need to be widened to meet this
requirement or Lot 4 will be prohibited from taking access from Tract B.
Condition 10.
Per the preliminary plat application submittal Checklist, Preliminary Plat Drawing —
Graphic Representation Section C, Item 12, occupation features (i.e. fences, shed, walls,
etc.) affecting the boundary between the subject site and adjoining parcels are shown.
Any potential unwritten rights associated with the depicted occupation features is a civil
matter between private parties. It is suggested the Applicant or their authorized
representative establish communication with the adjoining property owners to create an
open discussion regarding the occupation features. The City's review of this preliminary
plat application is for its conformity to Auburn City Code and state law, and as such
does not address nor adjudicate any potential unwritten rights that may be acquired by
the Applicant or the adjoiners. If at FINAL PLAT application, the nature and location
of the depicted occupation features remain unchanged. and/or unresolved, then per RCW
58.17.25,5, a "survey discrepancy note" shall be placed on the face of the FINAL PLAT
similar to the following example:

Exhibit 6, Preliminary Civil Plans, on Sheets C3 through C5, Sound Design
Engineering, Inc., October 2, 2019 shows two maintenance drives each from a different
street leading to the infiltration pond on Tract A. The access drive to the infiltration
pond off of 2" d Street SE shall be removed. but the drive from the new internal public
street being constructed as part of the plat (U ST SE) shall remain. Eliminating the drive
from 2°6 ST SE will minimize visual impacts of this access outside of the plat and will
access to the public roadway carrying less traffic.
Condition 13.
If groundwater is encountered during construction that creates less than 5 -feet of
separation between the bottom of the infiltration facility and the groundwater, then
construction shall be halted and stormwater design shall be reevaluated. This may
require groundwater monitoring or revision and. re -approval of civil plans.
Condition 14.
All of the city staff comments as shown on the Existing Features Boundary Topo, Sound

Engineering, dated September 12, 2019, shall be addressed as part of the civil plans
provided as part of the public facility extension application (FAC) prior to Final Plat
approval.
Condition 15.
Prior to City. approval of the construction plans under the Facilities Extension
Agreement (FAC), the plans shall show that appropriate portions of public streets shall
be posted no parking on the appropriate portions of the streets due to its road width or
presence of medians. Also, the cul-de-sacs shall be posted "No Parking" around their
entire perimeter. Posting shall be in accordance with ACC and City of Auburn
Engineering Design Standards.
Condition 16.
Prior to City approval of the construction plans under the Facilities Extension
Agreement (FAC), provide documentation of application to the Washington State
Department of Ecology (WSDOE) for a General Storm Permit, as required for all
