Section 14.20.100 of the City's subdivision ordinance provides that the Hearing Examiner shall hold a public hearing and submit a recommendation to the City Council relative to the subdivision criteria listed in that section and in RCW 58.17. The Growth Management Act requires written findings showing that the following requirements of RCW 58.17.110(2) are satisfied by the proposed preliminary plat: "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." X. Preliminary Plat Review Criteria. Section 14.20.100 of the Yakima Municipal Code provides that the Hearing Examiner shall review a proposed subdivision during an open record public hearing to inquire into and determine whether or not the following standards are satisfied: 1) Subsection 14.20.100(A)(1) -- Consistency with the provisions of the City's Urban Area Zoning Ordinance: The main purposes of the Yakima Urban Area Zoning Ordinance (UAZO) are to implement the Yakima Urban Area Comprehensive Plan and promote the general health, safety and welfare of the present and future inhabitants of the Sullivan Rowell Properties.

INDEX -1 RECEIVED !MAY 1 5 BM CITY OF YAKIINIA If�IL.aAIIYIiRNIIlIi9QA 11)1147 - Yakima Urban Area. Section 15.01.030 describes goals and policies intended to promote the purpose of the UAZO. Subsection 15.03.030(2) of the UAZO indicates that the intent of the Single -Family Residential (R-1) zoning district is to establish and preserve residential neighborhoods for primarily detached single-family dwellings and to locate moderate -density residential development up to 7 dwelling units per net residential acre in areas served by public water and public sewer. The proposed preliminary plat would be consistent with the intent of that zone by creating lots for detached single-family residences having a density of about 2.65 dwelling units per net residential acre. The final plat would be required to comply with the other provisions of the City's zoning ordinance including the following development standards of Chapter 15.05 of the UAZO: A) Lot Coverage: The maximum lot coverage permitted in the R-1 zoning district is 45% lot coverage and all lots will comply with that limitation. B) Lot Size: Table 5-2 of Chapter 15.05 of the UAZO provides that the minimum lot size for a single-family dwelling is 7,000 square feet and all proposed lots exceed that size. C) Lot Width: Table 5-2 of Chapter 15.05 of the UAZO prescribes a minimum lot width of 50 feet and all proposed lots meet that requirement. D) Density: With a density of about 2.65 dwelling units per net residential acre, the proposed preliminary plat easily complies with Subsection 15.05.030(B) and Table 4-1 of Chapter 15.04 of the UAZO which prescribe a maximum of 7 dwelling units per net residential acre in the R-1 zone. 2) Subsection 14.20.100(A)(2) -- Consistency with the provisions of the Comprehensive Plan: The City's Future Land Use Map I11-3 and Comprehensive Plan designate the property within the proposed plat as suitable for low density residential development consisting primarily of detached single-family residences having a density of less than 7 dwelling units per acre exclusive of roads and rights-of-way.

B) Specifically, the proposed preliminary plat is consistent with Policy G4.1 which is to encourage new urban development to locate first, within the City limits and second, within those portions of the Urban Growth Area where municipal services and public facilities are already present; Policy G4.2 which is to encourage new urban development to be contiguous to existing development to avoid the inefficient "leap -frog" pattern of growth; Policy T3.6 which is to keep curb cuts (driveways) onto collector and arterial streets to a minimum through the use of intersecting streets as access points and the internal design of subdivisions; Policy E1.1 which is to encourage new developments to locate in areas that are relatively free of environmental problems relating to soil, slope, bedrock and water table; Policy E1.2 which is to prevent increased stormwater runoff attributed to new development from adversely affecting downstream properties or structures; and Policy T3.5 which is to require new development to dedicate adequate street rights-of-way for public streets as specified by urban standards. 3) Subsection 14.20.100(A)(3) -- Consistency with the provisions of this title, Title 14 entitled "Subdivision Ordinance": As proposed and with the recommended conditions, this proposed preliminary plat would meet all the design requirements in Chapter 14.30 of the City's subdivision ordinance and in the City's Title 12 development standards. The recommended conditions are intended to ensure consistency with the provisions of the City's subdivision ordinance and other applicable City ordinances. 4) Subsection 14.20.100(A)(4)(a) — Appropriate provisions for public health, safety and general welfare: The construction of new detached single-family residences Sullivan Rowell Properties, LLC "Washington Heights" Preliminary Plat S. 76th Ave. and West Washington Ave. PREL PLAT #6-07, EC #42-07 6 DOC, INDEX REC ED MAY 1 . 20 Ilu CITY 10$F �I!AIKII PLAININIt1104 1011V. which will complement adjacent uses will promote the public health, safety and general welfare insofar as there is a need in this community for single-family residences and insofar as this proposed preliminary plat would be required to comply with all applicable City development standards, all mitigation measures in the SEPA MDNS and all conditions of approval specified by the City Council. Besides conditions noted in the SEPA MDNS, the Development Services Team (DST) comments for the meeting held on February 15, 2008 and the public agency comments were as follows: A) Wastewater: Wastewater needs to see plans for all phases of development. The twelve (12) -inch sewer in Freemont Way and the eight (8) -inch sewer m West Washington Avenue need to be extended through the development. The sewer needs to be extended to the lots on the north. Relative to this proposed project located in the vicinity of South 76th Avenue and West Washington Avenue, utility and transportation corridors and sizing need to address the entire sub basin. B) Stormwater Engineering: Stormwater Engineering has comments on the following subjects: a) The proposed development of Washington Heights poses some drainage/flooding concerns. Due to the approximately 1,000 acres of undeveloped land upstream of the proposed Washington Heights development, the City is concerned with the flooding threat posed to this proposed development when the ground is frozen (rain on snow, Chinook winds after snow, etc.). In an effort to protect the people and property within the proposed Washington Heights Development, the developer must construct an infiltration pond on the west end of his property. There exists, throughout the length of this parcel, a 200 -foot -wide band of soil that drains well and follows the old creek bed down the draw. The infiltration pond shall be constructed within this band of soil and placed so that it captures the floodwaters coming down the draw. The size of the pond shall be two acres with a minimum pond depth of two feet. The bottom of the infiltration pond shall be over -excavated and filled with a two -foot layer of clean drain rock. This is necessary to keep the soil under the drain rock from freezing, and thus allowing the runoff to infiltrate into the ground regardless of the temperature. Sullivan Rowell Properties. LLC "Washington Heights" Preliminary Plat S 76th Ave and West Washington Ave PREL PLAT #6-07, EC #42-07 7 DOC. INDEX RECEIVED MAY 1 5 /fl8 CITY OF YA KIMA PLANNING DPI b) The development will be required to retain the 25 -year storm on- site. The larger of the 25 -year 3 hour short duration storm and the 25 -year 72 hour long duration storm should be used. The design of the drainage system must be completed by a licensed professional engineer from the State of Washington and comply with City of Yakima standards as well as those in the Stormwater Management Manual for Eastern Washington. if UIC wells are used in the drainage design then the UIC wells must be registered with the Department of Ecology and a copy of the DOE UIC well registration form and the DOE issued UIC well registration number for each well shall be delivered to the City of Yakima's Surface Water Engineer before final plat approval will be granted. c) The applicant states that stormwater runoff will be handled by using surface retention areas -and infiltration facilities. Both are acceptable. d) Complete stormwater design plans, specifications and runoff/storage calculations supporting the stormwater design are required pursuant to the Eastern Washington Stormwater Manual and City of Yakima standards. These plans and control measures must be reviewed and approved by the City of Yakima Surface Water Engineer prior to construction. C) Building Codes: Placement of hydrants will be coordinated with Nob Hill Water Company. The vicinity map does not show the future road tie-in for this development. The project requires plan review, permits and inspections prior to occupancy per Section 105 of the 2006 International Residential Code. D) Fire: Fire apparatus turnarounds are required for West Whitman and Spokane Streets. Temporary access could be provided at lots 27 and 16 until the future development of Washington Heights is built out. If this solution works, an easement for that purpose must be recorded and the road must be built to City standards and standards set out in the 2006 International Fire Code, Appendix D. E) Addressing: Street names from north to south will be Zier Road, Perry Street, Spokane Street, Fremont Way, West Washington Avenue, West Whatcom Avenue and West Whitman Street.

Improvements include curb, gutter, sidewalks and street lighting. Nob Hill Water will provide water service. Sewer shall be extended to each lot and to the farthest property lines for future extensions. All existing County D.I.D. and existing sewer lines will need to be relocated to correspond with the street design, or easements will need to be recorded around existing lines. This would restrict building on many lots. G) Water: Nob Hill Water is available to serve Washington Heights. There are two eight (8) -inch water lines stubbed out of the Valleybrook development to serve this property. The lines will be run throughout the development and eventually tie into Zier Road. There is a static pressure of 92 p.s.i. with a flow of 3,500 g.p.m. at 20 p.s.i. available. H) West Valley School District: The school district submitted the following comments about an existing sewer line and easement through the property: a) A twenty (20) -foot -wide sewer easement runs east and west across this proposed development. The school district currently utilizes an eight (8) -inch sewer line that serves the West Valley High School through this easement. The school district has a concern as to how the developer intends to integrate the existing sewer line into this project and provide uninterrupted services to the West Valley School District. b) The sewer line was installed in the early 1990s to alleviate a health concern with the failing septic systems at the West Valley High School. The sewer line is governed by a four -party agreement between the City of Yakima, Yakima County, Terrace Heights Sewer District and the school district. Section 4(c) of the four -party agreement prohibits any other persons or entities from using this sewer line. The school district has been in discussion with the City of Yakima Sewer Department and is willing to transfer this line for public use provided that it continues to serve the school district.

INDEX RECEIVED MAY 1 5 ?flag CITY OF YAKIj PLANNING DIV. the developer relocating the sewer line so as to properly serve both this development and the school district. c) To ensure that the West Valley High School can continue to be served by City sewer without interruption, the school district requests mitigation procedures be required to properly integrate the existing sewer line within the development. Mitigation measures may include moving the existing line at the developer's expense so as not to run through proposed lots, such as lot #18. I) Traffic Engineering: The Traffic Engineering Division had the following comments: a) The 24 -lot development is subject to review under the Transportation Concurrency Ordinance, Yakima Municipal Code Chapter 12.08. b) The proposed development is the first phase of a larger residential, multi -phased plat. New public streets will extend Fremont Way and West Washington Avenue with this phase. Both of these streets will continue westward serving the entire development. The developer may wish to consider incorporating some small residential traffic circles (generally 12 to 16 feet in diameter) at some four-way intersections to keep vehicle speeds controlled. c) The City of Yakima has a planned improvement project at the intersection of South 72nd Avenue and West Washington Avenue for a possible roundabout. This development may be asked to contribute a pro rata share of $1,037 (total) for the planned improvement project. J) Department of Ecology: The Department of Ecology had the following comments: a) Regarding water resources, the water purveyor is responsible for ensuring that the proposed uses are within the limitations of their water rights. If the proposal's actions are different than the existing water right (source, purpose, the place of use or period of use), then it is subject to approval from the Department of Ecology pursuant to RCW Sections 90.03.380 and 90.44.100. b) Regarding toxic cleanup, based upon the historical agricultural use of this land, there is a possibility that the soil contains residual concentrations of pesticides. Ecology recommends that the soils be sampled and analyzed for lead and arsenic and for organochlorine pesticides. If these contaminants are found at concentrations above the MTCA clean up levels, Ecology recommends that potential buyers be notified of their occurrence.

INDEX RECEIVED MAY 1 5 2008 CITY OF YAKI IA PLANNING DIV. c) Regarding water quality, an NPDES Construction Stormwater General Permit from the Washington State Department of Ecology is required if there is a potential for stormwater discharge from a construction site with more than one acre of disturbed ground. This permit requires that the SEPA checklist fully disclose anticipated activities including building, road construction and utility placement. Obtaining a permit is a minimum of a 38 -day process and may take up to 60 days if the original SEPA checklist does not disclose all proposed activities. The permit requires that a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (Erosion Sediment Control Plan) is prepared and implemented for all permitted construction sites. These control measures must be able to prevent soil from being carried into surface water (this includes storm drains) by stormwater runoff. Permit coverage and erosion control measures must be in place prior to any clearing, grading or construction. K) Yakima Valley Canal Company: Yakima Valley Canal Company is an irrigation provider to approximately 2,947 acres within the West Yakima Area. The Yakima Valley Canal Company operates and maintains canals and waterlines for delivery of irrigation water to its various members. In regards to the proposed preliminary plat, Yakima Valley Canal Company owns a twenty -foot -wide right of way and pipeline along the eastern edge of parcel no. 181332-23005. The proposed preliminary plat calls for streets to be constructed over and above the property of the Yakima Valley Canal Company. The proposed roads have not received the written approval or permission of Yakima Valley Canal Company. To date, no agreement has been reached regarding the construction of roads across the Yakima Valley Canal Company pipeline and right-of-way. L) Yakima Regional Clean Air Authority: Contractors doing demolition, excavation, clearing, construction or landscaping work must file a dust control plan with the Yakima Regional Clean Air Authority. Since the property is located within the Urban Growth Area of Yakima, no burning is allowed on or off site. Vegetation may be removed by chipping or transporting it to a landfill M) Yakima County: Yakima County submitted the following comments by way of two letters: a) Last year Yakima County received an application for subdividing the property under consideration in the above proposal which also included a much larger area. The proposed preliminary plat was one phase of many phases in Sullivan Rowell Properties, LLC "Washington Heights" Preliminary Plat S 76th Ave and West Washington Ave PREL PLAT #6-07. EC #42-07 11 DOG. INDEX # AA -1 RECEIVED MAY 1 5 2008 CITY OF YAKIMA PLANNING DIV. the application the County received. The application the County received was also accompanied by a SEPA environmental review application. In its early stages of review, the County found significant problems with the project as it was proposed, and has requested additional information to better understand the impact of the project. b) One of the major issues in the proposal the County is reviewing is the street layout of Phase I. The County found that it did not meet fire and road standards. The County is concerned that subdivision of Phase I of the larger development, as proposed, will cause problems in the future phases as these roads are extended into County jurisdiction. Grades in the sides of the ravine exceed the County's grade standards. There is not enough information on the grading strategy for the County to confirm that roads, intersections, accesses, lot grading and home site construction can all be accomplished together while meeting road and fire development standards. c) An additional issue of concern is that drainage improvement district (DID) drain pipes and easements pass through the center of the development, including the larger development within County jurisdiction. The drainage plans need to be developed that deal with (i) upland flows from off-site, ii). DID facilities, (iii) easements for facilities, and (iv) easements for upland flows in locations that do not pass through residences. d) A SEPA Determination of Nonsignficance would not be prudent for this development. There are significant issues that need to be addressed for which information has not been provided. It is likely that an MDNS will be needed to deal with the issues. e) The County is also concerned that the project will not be reviewed as a whole. Of course it is difficult for the City to review the whole development when part of it is outside the city limits. It would be beneficial for both the City and County to coordinate the review on the entire project to ensure that issues are adequately covered and ensure that unintended consequences are avoided. f) This proposed development is located in the lower end of a 1.5 -mile watershed to the west of South 72nd Avenue. The County -administered Drainage Improvement District 41 passes through this property in the valley low point along its own easement. Not far upstream of this location, DID 41 is an open channel ditch.

During the February 1996 flood, South 72nd Avenue at Spokane Street was closed for one day due to surface flooding from upland flows. The purpose of the DID drains is to remove excess irrigation water as opposed to flood flows. g) With current rapid urbanization occurring in this and other watersheds, and the conversion of rural open land to populated urban development, site layouts in plats have been required by the County to pass upland flows as well as retain site runoff in order to minimize future damage and hardship. The County Engineer designated the Ahtanum—Wide Hollow basin as flood -prone, requiring the passage of the 100 -year design storms for upland flows and retention of the 25 -year site runoff. This County standard was established in response to public concerns expressed on future development to reduce risk, damage and hardship. h) The County does not see upland flow passage on the current development proposal and requests that same be provided for 100 -year flows to avoid unnecessary flooding. From prior submissions to the County it is aware that this development has significantly more area upstream and may have up to 12 phases. The County extends its comments to all phases. Since disposal of on-site stormwater runoff is a City requirement and has not been shown, the County withholds comment. i) The DID line must be designed and installed under the supervision of a professional engineer, licensed in the State of Washington. Plans and specifications must be approved and accepted by Yakima County before any construction can take place. The sponsor and contractor shall coordinate installation and construction with Yakima County to minimize disruption of service and operation of the drain system. The sponsor's engineer must provide "as -built" plans to the County prior to acceptance of the construction by the County. j) In summary, the upland surface and DID discharge passage requirements for land upstream of the proposed development must be maintained in new developments to forego flood -induced hardships.

Residential access streets require a right-of-way width of fifty (50) feet. West Washington Avenue and Fremont Way are both considered residential access streets as they intersect this development. Fire apparatus turnarounds are required for West Whitman Street and Spokane Street by Appendix "D" of the 2006 International Fire Code because they are dead end streets exceeding 150 feet in length. Temporary turnarounds could be provided at lots 27 and 16 until the future development of Washington Heights is built out. If this solution works, an easement for that purpose must be recorded and the road must be built to City standards and standards set out in the 2006 International Fire Code, Appendix D(5). The addresses for the new lots must be shown on the face of the plat. It was determined through Transportation Concurrency Review completed on April 4, 2008 that there is reserve capacity on all impacted arterial streets. 5) Relative to some of the requirements that make appropriate provisions for potable water, all lots shall be served by a public water supply line maintained by the Nob Hill Water Association, or other water purveyor, located adjacent to the lot or development site. Water lines must be extended to the point where an adjoining property owner's responsibility for further extension begins and shall be looped or otherwise constructed in the manner required by the City and Nob Hill Water Association. Applicable connection fees may be obtained from Nob Hill Water Association. 6) Relative to some of the requirements that make appropriate provisions for sanitary waste disposal, public sewer service will be provided in accordance with the City of Yakima's Title 12 standards.

Based upon an inspection of the site, comments received during the 20 -day comment period from the applicable public agencies, review of the City of Yakima Subdivision Ordinance and Urban Area Zoning Ordinance, and review of the Yakima Urban Area Comprehensive Plan, the Administrative Official and Subdivision Administrator makes the following: FINDINGS Applicant: Sullivan Rowell Properties, LLC, 6601 W. Deschutes, Ste B, Kennewick, WA Site Location: Vicinity of S. 76th Ave. & W. Washington Ave Parcel No.: 181332-23005 Zoning: Single -Family Residential (R-1) Project Description: Washington Heights, Phase 1, is a preliminary long plat application. The applicant, Sullivan Rowell, is requesting approval to subdivide an existing lot containing approximately 11.9 acres of Single -Family Residential (R-1) property into twenty-four (24) lots. The lots range from 8,937 sq ft to 25,572 sq ft. The subject property is currently vacant land that was previously used for agricultural purposes. HEARING EXAMINER JURISDICTION Pursuant to RCW Ch. 58.17, YMC § 1.43.080(B), & YMC § 14.20.100, the Hearing Examiner is authorized to make recommendations to City Council on preliminary long plats. YAKIMA URBAN AREA COMPREHENSIVE PLAN The 1997 Yakima Urban Area Comprehensive Plan (YUACP), Future Land Use Map, designates this area as being suitable for low-density residential development. (YUACP, Map II1-3) Low Density Residential is primarily single family, detached residences. Net residential density before considering roads and right-of-ways is less than 7.0 dwelling units per acre, which is considered the lowest residential density to efficiently support public services. (YUACP, p. I1I-9) The proposed project is approximately 2.65 dwelling units per net residential acre. The 1997 Yakima Urban Area Comprehensive Plan goals include the following: Policy G4.1: Policy G4.2: Policy T3.6: New urban development should be encouraged to locate first, within the City limits and second, within those portions of the Urban Growth Area where municipal services and public facilities are already present. New urban development should be encouraged to be contiguous to existing development to avoid the inefficient "leap -frog" pattern of growth. Curb cuts (driveways) onto collector and arterial streets should be kept to a minimum through the following techniques: 1. The use of intersecting streets as access points; and, 2. Internal design of subdivisions. Policy E1.1: New developments should be encouraged to locate in areas that are relatively free Policy E1.2: Increased stonnwater runoff attributed to new development should not adversely affect downstream properties or structures. of environmental problems relating to soil, slope, bedrock and water table. Policy T3.5: New development shall be required to dedicate adequate street rights-of-way for public streets as specified by urban standards. ZONING AND LAND USE The subject property is zoned Single -Family Residential (R-1). The cun-ent use of the property is for a single-family dwelling. The purpose of the single-family residential district is to establish and preserve residential neighborhoods for detached single-family dwellings free from other uses except those which are compatible with, and serve the residents of, this district; and to locate moderate -density residential development, up to 7.0 dwelling units per net residential acre (DU/NRA), in areas served by public water and sewer. Detached single-family dwellings are the primary use in this district. The district is characterized by 45% lot coverage; access to individual lots by local access streets; large front, rear and side yard setbacks; and one and two story structures. Public water, sewer and other urban services are generally available throughout the district. (YMC § 15.03.030) Adjacent properties have the following characteristics: Location Zoning Land Use North R-1 Single Family Dwelling South R-1 Single Family Dwelling West R-1 Vacant Land East R-1 Single Family Dwelling URBAN AREA ZONING ORDINANCE The main purposes of the Yakima Urban Area Zoning Ordinance are to implement the Yakima Urban Area Comprehensive Plan and promote the general health, safety, and welfare of present and future inhabitants of the Yakima Urban Area. (YMC § 15.01.030) The Yakima Municipal Code Section 15.01.030 sets out goals and policies intended to promote the Urban Area Zoning Ordinance purpose. All development within the proposed subdivision must meet the development requirements set forth in YMC § 15.05.020. 2 Sullivan Rowell — Prel Long Plat #6-07 — 76th & Washington INDLX # A -I Lot Coverage: The maximum lot coverage allowed in the R-1 zoning district is 45% lot coverage. Lot Size: The minimum lot size for a single family dwelling is 7,000 sq. ft. (YMC Ch. 15.05, Table 5-2) All proposed lots meet the minimum lot size. Lot Width: The minimum lot width is 50 feet. (YMC Ch. 15.05, Table 5-2) All proposed lots meet the minimum lot width. Dwelling Units Per Net Residential Acre: The maximum number of dwelling units permitted per net residential acre calculation is used to determine the maximum number of dwelling units permitted within a single subdivision, short subdivision, mobile home park, multifamily development, or planned residential development. In the R-1 zone the maximum number of dwelling units permitted per net residential acre is 7.0. (YMC 15.05.030(B) & Ch. 15.04, Table 4-1) The proposed development is less than 7.0 dwelling units per net residential acre. PROJECT CONSISTENCY During project review it has been determined that the applicant's request is consistent with applicable development regulations under YMC § 16.06.020(A) for making a Determination of Consistency as required under RCW Ch. 36.70B. Those project considerations are as follows: 1. The type of land use: Single family housing, which is a Class (1) land use in the R-1 district. 2. The level of development, such as units per acre or other measures of density: The proposed densities are 2.65 dwelling units per net residential acre (DU/NRA)). The residential densities in the R-1 zone are 7.0 DU/NRA. (YMC Ch. 15.05, Table 4-1) 3. Infrastructure, including public facilities and services needed to serve the development: Public facilities and services are able to serve the proposed land use. The developer is required to extend any needed services, which include sewer and water, as part of the subdivision process. 4. The characteristics of the development, such as development standards: Development standards must be met prior to approving the final plat approval. GROWTH MANAGEMENT ACT The passage of the Growth Management ACT (SSB 2929) in 1990 requires local governments to produce written findings for Long Plats. Written findings must be made to show 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. (RCW § 58.17.110) 3 Sullivan Rowell — Pt -el Long Plat #6-07 — 761h & Washington INDEX Schools - West Valley Middle School is located approximately 450 ft to the north; West Valley High School is located approximately 4000 ft to the north; Wide Hollow Elementary is located approximately 4500 ft to the north. Parks - West Valley Community Park is located approximately 1800 ft to the north of the proposed subdivision and is the closest city park to the subject property. The subject parcel is not currently located in a planned parks and recreation area. DESIGN SERVICES TEAM A Design Services Team meeting was conducted on February 15, 2008, to discuss the technical aspects of this request. The following comments were received from public agencies and private companies with an interest in the development herein being reviewed. Wastewater — Wastewater needs to see plans for all phases of development. The 12" sewer in Freemont needs to be extended through the development. The 8" sewer in Washington needs to be extended through the development. The sewer needs to be extended to the lots on the north. The Wastewater Division has the following comment pertaining to the proposed project located in the vicinity of South 76th Ave. & Washington Ave.: Utility and transportation corridors and sizing need to address the entire sub basin. Stormwater Engineering — The proposed development of Washington Heights poses some drainage/flooding concerns. Due to the approximately 1000 acres of undeveloped land upstream of the proposed Washington Heights Development, the City is concerned with the flooding threat posed to this proposed development when the ground is frozen (ram on snow, Chinook winds after snow, etc.). In an effort to protect the people and property within the proposed Washington Heights Development, the developer must construct an infiltration pond on the west end of his property. There exists, throughout the length of this parcel. a 200' wide band of soil that drains well, and follows the old creek bed down the draw. The infiltration pond shall be constructed within this band of soil and placed so that it captures the floodwaters coining down the draw. The size of the pond shall be two acres with a minimum pond depth of two feet. The bottom of the infiltration pond shall be over excavated and filled with a two foot layer of clean drain rock. This is necessary to keep the soil under the dram rock from freezing, and thus allowing the runoff to infiltrate into the ground regardless of the temperature. The development will be required to retain the 25 -year stone on-site. The larger of the 25 - year three hour short duration storm and the 25 -year 72 hour long duration storm should be used. The design of the drainage system must be completed by a licensed professional engineer from the State of Washington and comply with City of Yakima standards as well as those in the Stormwater Management Manual for Eastern Washington. If UIC wells are used in the drainage design then the U1C wells must be registered with the Department of Ecology and a copy of the DOE UIC Well registration fora and the DOE issued UIC well registration number for each well shall be delivered to the City of Yakima's Surface Water Engineer before final plat approval will be granted. 4 Sullivan Rowell — Prel Long Plat #6-07 — 76th & Washington INDEX The applicant states that stonnwater runoff will be handled by using surface retention areas and infiltration facilities. Both are acceptable. Complete stornwater design plans, specifications and runoff/storage calculations supporting the stormwater design are required pursuant to the Eastern Washington Stonnwater Manual and City of Yakima standards. These plans and control measures must be reviewed and approved by the City of Yakima Surface Water Engineer prior to construction. Building Codes - Will work with Nob Hill Water Company for placement of hydrants. Vicinity map does not show future road tie -m for this development. Project requires plan review, permits and inspections prior to occupancy per Section 105 of the 2006 International Residential Code. Fire — Fire apparatus turnarounds are required for Whitman and Spokane Streets. Temporary access could be provided at lots 27 and 16 until the future development of Washington Heights is built out. If this solution works, an easement for that purpose must be recorded and the road must be built to City standards and standards set out in the 2006 International Fire Code, Appendix D.

Nob Hill Water will provide water service. Sewer shall be extended to each lot and to the farthest lines for future extensions. All existing County D.1.D. and existing sewer lines will need to be relocated to con-espond with the street design or easements will need to be recorded around existing lines. This would restrict building on many lots. Water — Nob Hill Water is available to serve Washington Heights. We have two 8" water lines stubbed out of Valleybrook to serve this property. We will run these lines throughout the development and eventually tie into Zier Road. We have a static pressure of 92 PSI with a flow of 3500 GPM at 20 PSI available. West Valley School District — 5 Sullivan Rowell — Prel Long Plat #6-07 — 76th & Washington INDEX # �,� A twenty (20) foot sewer easement runs east and west across this proposed development. The school district currently utilizes an 8" sewer ling that serves the West Valley High School through this easement. The school district has a concern as to how the developer intends to integrate the existing sewer line into this project and provided uninterrupted services to the West Valley School District. The sewer line was installed in the early 199's to alleviate a health concern with the failing septic systems at the West Valley High School. The sewer line is governed by a four party agreement between the City of Yakima, Yakima County, Terrace Heights Sewer District and the school district. The four party agreement section 4(c) does not allow any other persons or entities to use this sewer line. The school district has been in discussion with the City of Yakima Sewer Department and is willing to transfer this line for public use provided that it continues to serve the school district. The school district would also be m favor of the developer relocating the sewer line so as to properly serve both their development and the school district. To ensure that the West Valley High School can continue to be served by city sewer without interruption, the school district requests mitigation procedures be required to properly integrate the existing sewer line within the development. Mitigation measures may include moving the existing line at the developer's expense so as to not run through proposed lots. (as in lot #18) Traffic Engineering — 1. The 24 -lot development is subject to review under the Transportation Concurrency Ordinance. (YMC Ch. 12.08) 2. The proposed development is the first phase of a larger residential, multi -phased plat. New public streets will extend Fremont Way and West Washington Avenue with this phase. Both of these streets will continue westward serving the entire development. The developer may wish to consider incorporating some small residential traffic circles (generally 12 to 16 feet in diameter) at some four-way intersections to keep vehicle speeds controlled. 3. The City of Yakima has a planned improvement project at the intersection of 72nd Avenue and West Washington Avenue for a possible roundabout. This development may be asked to contribute a Pro Rata Share of $1,037 (total) for the planned improvement project. Department of Ecology — Water Resources - The water purveyor is responsible for ensuring that the proposed use(s) are within the limitations of its water rights. If the proposal's actions are different that the existing water right (source, purpose, the place of use, or period of use), then it is subject to approval from the Department of Ecology pursuant to Sections 90.03.380 RCW and 90.44.100 RCW. 6 Sullivan Rowell — Prel Long Plat #6-07 — 76th & Washington DOC C. INDEX A -I Toxic Cleanup - Based upon the historical agricultural use of this land, there is a possibility the soil contains residual concentrations of pesticides. Ecology recommends that the soils be sampled and analyzed for lead and arsenic and for organochlorine pesticides. If these contaminants are found at concentrations above the MTCA clean up levels Ecology recommends that potential buyers be notified of their occurrence. Water Quality - Project Greater — Than 1 Acre with Potential to Discharge Off -Site An NPDES Construction Stormwater General Permit from the Washington State Department of Ecology is required if there is a potential for stormwater discharge from a construction site with more than one acre of disturbed ground. This permit requires that SEPA checklist fully disclose anticipated activities including building, road construction and utility placement. Obtaining a permit is a minimum of a 38 day process and may take up to 60 days if the original SEPA does not disclose all proposed activities. The permit requires that Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (Erosion Sediment Control Plan) is prepared and implemented for all permitted construction sites. These control measures must be able to prevent soil from being carried into surface water (this includes storm drains) by stornmwater runoff. Permit coverage and erosion control measures must be in place prior to any clearing, grading, or construction. Yakima Valley Canal Company — As you may well be aware, Yakima Valley Canal Company is an irrigation provider to approximately 2,947 acres within the West Yakima Area. The Yakima Valley Canal Company operates and maintains canals and waterlines for delivery for its various members. In regards to the Long Plat, Yakima Canal Company owns a twenty -foot (20') right of way and pipeline along the eastern edge of parcel 181332-23005. The proposed preliminary long plat appears to call for streets to be constructed over and above the property of the Yakima Valley Canal Company. The proposed roads cannot be approved unless there has bee express written permission granted by Yakima Valley Canal Company for any road. To date, no agreement has been reached regarding any construction of roads across Yakima Valley Canal Company property. Yakima Regional Clean Air Authority, - 1. Contractors doing demolition, excavation, clearing, construction, or landscaping work must file a dust control plan with YRCAA; and, 2. Because the property is located within the Urban Growth Area of Yakima, no burning is allowed on or off site. Vegetation may be removed by chipping or transporting a landfill. Yakima County — Letter 1 - Last year, Yakima County received an application for subdividing the property under consideration in the above proposal. However, the proposal also included a much larger area — the project in your notice was one phase of many phases in the application we received. The application we received was also accompanied by a SEPA environmental review application. In our early stages of review we found significant problems with the project as it was proposed, and have requested additional information to better understand the impact of the project. One of the major issues in the proposal we are reviewing is the street layout of Phase 1. The County found the didn't meet fire and road standards. We are concerned that subdivision of 7 Sullivan Rowell — Pref Long Plat #6-07 — 761h & Washington DOC. INDEX Phase 1 of the larger development, as proposed, will cause problems in the future phases as these roads are extended into County jurisdiction. Another issue was that grades in the sides of the ravine exceed our grade standards. Another issue is that there is not enough information on the grading strategy for the County to confirm that roads, intersections, accesses, lot grading, and home site construction can all be accomplished together while meeting road and fire development standards. An additional issue of concern is that drainage improvement district (DID) drain pipes and easements pass through the center of the development, including the larger development within County jurisdiction. The Drainage plans need to be developed that deal with (a) upland flows from off-site, (b) DID facilities, (c) easements for facilities, and (d) easements for upland flows in locations that do not pass through residences. As can be seen a DNS would not be prudent for this development. There are significant issues that need to be addressed for which information has not been provided. Such information, it is likely that an MDNS will be needed to deal with the issues. We are also concerned that the project will not be reviewed as a whole. Of course it is difficult for the City to review the whole development when part of it is outside the city limits. We think that it would be beneficial for both the City and County to coordinate the review on the entire project to ensure that issues are adequately covered, and ensure that unintended consequences are avoided. Letter 2 - This proposed development is located in the lower end of a 1.5 mile watershed to the west of S/ 72nd Ave. The County administered the Drainage Improvement Dist. 41 passes through this property in the valley low point along its own easement. Not far upstream of this location, DID 41 is an open channel ditch. Although the defined surface channel in the parcel was removed during the installation of the DID drain, surface flows beyond drain flows can pass to and along the valley bottom through sheet flows over the current undeveloped site. During the February 1996 flood, 72nd St. at Spokane St. was closed for one day due to surface flooding from upland flows. The purpose of the DID drains is to remove excess irrigation as opposed to flood flows. With cun-ent rapid urbanization occurring in this and other watersheds, and the conversion of rural open land to populated urban development, site layouts in the forms of plats have been required by the County to pass upland flows as well as retain site runoff in order to minimize future damage and hardship. The County Engineer designated the Ahtanum — Wide Hollow basin as flood -prone, requiring the passage of the 100 -year design storms for upland flows and retention of the 25 -year site runoff. This County standard was established in response to public concerns expressed on future development to reduce risk, damage, and hardship. We do not see upland flow passage on the current development proposal and request that they be provided for 100 -year flows to avoid unnecessary flooding. From prior submissions to the County we are aware that this development has significantly more area upstream and may have up to 12 phases. We extend our comments to all phases. As disposal of on-site stor iwater runoff is a City requirement and has not been shown, we withhold comment. The [DID] line must be designed and installed under the supervision of a professional engineer, licensed in the State of Washington. Plans & Specifications must be approved and accepted by Yakima County before any construction can take place. The Sponsor and Contractor shall coordinate installation & construction with Yakima County to minimize 8 Sullivan Rowell — Prel Long Plat #6-07 — 76th & Washington DOC. INDEX # _' disruption of service and operation of the drain system. The Sponsor's Engineer must provide "as -built" plans to the County prior to acceptance of the construction by the County. In summary, the upland surface and DID discharge passage requirements for land upstream of the proposed development must be maintained in new developments to forego flood induced hardships. TRANSPORTATION CAPACITY A Transportation Concurrency review, as required under Yakima Municipal Code Chapter 12.08, was completed on April 4, 2008. Under that review, it was determined that there is reserve capacity on all impacted arterial streets. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW This project was not exempt under the State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA) (YMC § 6.88.070).

G. The passage of the Growth Management ACT (SSB 2929) in 1990 requires local governments to produce written findings for Long Plats. (RCW § 58.17.110) This is to ensure that appropriate provisions are made for the public health, safety and general welfare. The proposed preliminary long plat will not create additional need for schools, parks, playgrounds or recreational facilities. H. The following are the closest schools to the proposed subdivision: West Valley Middle School is located approximately 450 ft to the north; West Valley High School is located approximately 4000 ft to the north; Wide Hollow Elementary is located approximately 4500 ft to the north. I. West Valley Community Park is located approximately 1800 ft to the north of the proposed subdivision and is the closest city park to the subject property. The subject parcel is not currently located in a planned parks and recreation area. J. City of Yakima sanitary sewer will serve all lots from a eight -inch sewer mains to be provided within the proposed subdivision. A twelve -inch sewer main must also serve the development, which will be placed along Fremont Ave. Sewer lines must also be extended to the lots on the north. K. An infiltration pond must be constructed on the west end of his property. There exists, throughout the length of this parcel, a 200' wide band of soil that drains well, and follows the old creek bed down the draw.

New construction affecting stormwater runoff must be prepared in accordance with the Eastern Washington Storm Water Management Manual & the City of Yakima Storm Water Management Guide for that construction. N. Fire hydrants are required. Nob Hill Water Assn. and City of Yakima, Fire Department, will determine placement/location of those hydrants. 0. Fire apparatus turnarounds are required for Whitman and Spokane Streets. Temporary turnarounds could be provided at lots 27 and 16 until the future development of Washington Heights is built out. If this solution works, an easement for that purpose must be recorded and the road must be built to City standards and standards set out in the 2006 International Fire Code, Appendix D. P. The proposed subdivision must have the addresses shown on the face of the plat for the new lots. Q. All new lots and development shall be served by a public water supply line maintained by the City of Yakima Nob Hill Water Company, or other water purveyor, and located adjacent to the lot or development site. (YMC § 12.04.010) Nob Hill Water is available to adequately serve the proposed subdivision. Water lines must be extended to the point where the adjoining property owner's responsibility for further extension begins. (YMC § 12.04.020) All water lines shall be looped. (YMC § 12.04.030) Applicable connection fees may be obtained from Nob Hill Water. R. Eight -foot -wide utility easements must be dedicated along the front of each lot in the subdivision. (YMC § 12.02.020) Easements for new and/or future utility lines shall be a minimum of eight feet in width, or twice the buned depth of the utility, whichever is greater. (Id.) S. A DID Line currently exists across this property. If easements are not provided for the line in its current location, the line will need to be relocated to correspond with the street design and appropriate easements granted. T. The City of Yakima maintains a sewer line for the Yakima School District under a four party agreement. That runs in a 20 foot sewer easement across the subject property. If the developer intends to relocate the easement and sewer line, the developer must make arrangements with the City of Yakima Sewer Division and the West Valley School District. U. Lots intended for residential use should not front upon a major or secondary arterial. (YMC § 14.25.040(B)) All of the 24 proposed lots front upon "residential access" streets located within the subdivision, which must be built to Title 12 development standards requiring curbs, gutters, 5 foot sidewalks (YMC § 12.05.020), and street lights. Fifty (50) feet of right-of-way is required for residential access streets (YMC § 12.06.020). W. Washington Avenue and W. Fremont Avenue are both considered residential access streets as they intersect this development. (YUACP, Map III) V. Transportation Concurrency Review was completed on April 4, 2008. It was determined that there is reserve capacity on all impacted arterial streets. 11 Sullivan Rowell — Prel Long Plat #6-07 — 76th & Washington DOC. INDEX W. The proposed subdivision is not exempt from State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA) review. (YMC § 6.88.070(A)(1)(b)) A mitigated determination of non -significance (MDNS) was issued on April 14, 2008.

INDEX # n— 0 Page 1 of 1 Sheffield, Brett From: Meloy, Randy Sent: Wednesday, April 09, 2008 4 51 PM To: Sheffield, Brett Subject: Washington Heights Drainage Comments Kevin The proposed development of Washington Heights poses some engineering problems, but nothing that cannot be worked out. The City of Yakima requires that any new development retain the 25 -year storm on-site. The larger of the 25 -year three hour short duration storm and the 25 -year 24 hour long duration storm should be used. The design of the drainage system must be completed by a licensed professional engineer from the State of Washington and comply with City of Yakima standards as well as those in the Stormwater Management Manual for Eastern Washington. If UIC wells are used in the drainage design then the UIC wells must be registered with the Department of Ecology and a copy of the DOE UIC Well registration form and the DOE issued UIC well registration number for each well shall be delivered to the City of Yakima's Surface Water Engineer before final plat approval will be granted. Perhaps of greater concern to the City is the issue of flooding brought on by the large amount of undeveloped land upflow from the proposed development. There are approximately 1000 acres of undeveloped land upstream of the development and this poses a serious flooding threat to Washington Heights as well as Valleybrook to the east. The bottom of this draw is classified as a Class C flood zone The Yakima County Flood Control Zone District is requiring that Washington Heights be able to pass the 100 -year storm event. While this may protect Washington Heights from the worst of a large flood, it does nothing to protect the neighboring Valleybrook subdivision which has flooded in the past, as 72nd Ave. acts as a dam to the flood flows coming down the draw After doing considerable research into the flooding in this area and using the National Flood Frequency calculator, it has been determined that if a 100 -year storm occurred with the ground being frozen (a worst case scenario) the total direct runoff would be 45 5 acre-feet of water This is a huge amount of runoff and it is unrealistic to try and retain this amount of water before it gets to the developed areas. However, it seems prudent to require some form of stormwater retention on the upland side of Washington Heights to help alleviate the impact from major flooding events and perhaps put an end to smaller localized flooding from smaller rainfall events Using the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service soil maps, there is a band of soil approximately 200 feet wide following the old creek bed up the draw The soil is classified as Logy silt loam, # 69, and drains well The City of Yakima, in an effort to protect people and property downstream of Washington Heights is requiring that the developer construct an infiltration pond on the upstream side of this development and within the band of Logy silt loam soil This infiltration pond must be placed so that it captures the floodwaters coming down the draw. The size of the pond shall be two acres with a minimum pond depth of two feet. A minimum of one foot of the existing ground shall be removed to get to the underlying soils that drain better The bottom of the infiltration pond shall be a layer of clean drain rock at least three feet deep. This is necessary to keep the soil under the drain rock from freezing, and thus allowing the runoff to infiltrate into the ground regardless of the temperature. The pond should have some form of spillway at the two foot mark to release water downstream and prevent overtopping.

Long Plat #6-07) Dear Mr. Benson: MAR 3 1 2008 CITY OF YAKIMA PLANNING DIV. I have a chance to read Mr. Patterson's review comments and would like to provide some additional information to aid your review process. As you know we originally submitted the plat to Yakima County, and they responded with the request for additional information, which prompted another meeting to discuss these issues. I believe that you attended that meeting also. It was our understanding, as a result of that meeting, that Mr. Patterson and Mr. Erickson agreed to review their comments and provide a more specific scope to the request for additional information. At this time we have not received their revised request. As a part of the preliminary plat development process we analyzed the existing ground grades and potential street grades to determine if the roads can be designed to meet the City's and County's grade standards. During this process we determined that it was feasible to develop the entire plat and service it with utilities in accordance with the design guidelines. Subsequently we are in the process of preparing a grading pian that confirms our preliminary design calculations as to the feasibility of the layout. A comprehensive grading plan will be included as part of construction documents. The County has not asked for any additional information regarding the drainage improvement district (DID) dram pipe that passes through the plat. It is and was understood that the DID line will need to be relocated. It is our intent to relocate the line in the same manner that Valley Brook Estates Plat relocated the line. The conditions for design and approval should be the same as they were for Valley Brook as they are an extension of the same valley and DID line. A comprehensive plan will be developed in accordance with DID requirements and will be included as part of construction documents. DOC. INDEX # Q -IR RECEIVED MAR 3 1 2008 CITY OF YAKIMA PLANNING DIV. The development of Drainage Plans will be performed as part of the design process. It is a standard part of the development of the storm water design to analyze the potential for upland flow. A drainage plan is a complex and time consuming process that has many variables that depend on the specific design of the road and its desired drain system. It is not customary to develop a drainage plan for a plat that has not been approved. If the plat has changes it could render the entire plan obsolete, or at minimally, require major time consuming changes to the plan. Ultimately it is our responsibility as part of the road design and review process to develop a Storm Water Drainage Report in accordance with the Stormwater Management Manual for Eastern Washington and City requirements. As part of the Stormwater Drainage Report, a comprehensive drainage plan will be developed and included as part of construction documents. The up -land flow conditions for design and approval should be the same as they were for Valley Brook as it is an extension of the same valley. I believe the Phase 1 of the plat, as well as the plat in its entirety, meets the basic development goal for the City. As you know it is our intent to annex the remainder of the plat into the City as soon as it allowed, and most likely before it is developed. Therefore, we have provided you with the complete plat so you will fully understand our intent for the future plat and can make comments accordingly. Please feel free to contact me with any questions regarding this matter. Sincerely yours, Michael R. Heit, P.E. Design Engineer PRO SERVICES DOC.

VIA FAX & MAIL RE: SEPA Comments on Washington Heights Subdivision — Phase 1 (UAZO EC #42-07 // Prel. Long Plat #6-07) Dear Mr. Benson: Thank you for the opportunity to review the above project. We offer the following comments. Last year, Yakima County received an application for subdividing the property under consideration in the above proposal. However, the proposal also included a much larger area -- the project in your notice was one phase of many phases in the application we received. The application we received was also accompanied by a SEPA environmental review application. In our early stages of review, we found significant problems with the project as it was proposed, and have requested additional information to better understand the impact of the project. One of the major issues in the proposal we are reviewing is the street layout of Phase 1. The County found the layout didn't meet fire and road standards. We are concerned that subdivision of Phase 1 of the larger development, as proposed, will cause problems in future phases as these roads are extended into County jurisdiction. Another issue was that grades in the sides of the ravine exceed our grade standards. Another issue is that there is not enough information on the grading strategy for the County to confirm that roads, intersections, accesses, lot grading, and home site construction can all be accomplished together while meeting road and fire development standards. A.: addiUorial issue of cQncerri :s that drainage improvement district (DID) drain pipes and easements pass through the center of the development, including the larger development within County jurisdiction. The proposed subdivision does not take these facilities into account, nor provide plans for their relocation Drainage plans need to be developed that deal with (a) upland flows from off-site, (b) DID facilities, (c) easements for facilities, and (d) easements for upland flows in locations that do not pass through residences. As can be seen, a DNS would not be prudent for this development. There are significant issues that need to be addressed for which information has not been provided. Such information is needed to determine if Phase 1 can be integrated with future phases. Based on the information, it is likely that an MDNS will be needed to deal with the issues. We are also concerned that the project will not be reviewed as a whole. Of course it is difficult for the City to review the whole development when part of it is onside the city limits. We think that it would be beneficial for both the City and County to coordinate the review on the entire project to ensure that issues arbbl quately INDEX March 26, 2008 Page 2 MAR 2 8 2008 CITU OFYAKIMA PLANNING DIV covered, and ensure that unintended consequences are avoided. We would like to meet with the city to discuss the project in more detail. Thank you for the opportunity to comment on this project.

RE: Comments on City of Yakima notice of Master Application for Environmental Review, Preliminary Long Plat and Public Hearing, from Sullivan Rowell, Parcel 181332-23005, Vicinity of South 76`h' and Washington Avenue Prel. Long Plat #6-074, EC #42-074. Dear Mr. Benson: Thank you for the opportunity to submit comments on the proposed development. Attached are comments provided by Yakima County Surface Water Management Division, including those from the Flood Control District. The comments concern the Drainage Improvement District (DID) No. 41, concerns related to the Yakima County Flood Control Zone District, and stormwater management. This proposed development is located in the lower end of a 1.5 square mile watershed to the west of S 72nd Ave The County administered Drainage Improvement District 41 drain passes through this property in the valley low point along its own easement. Not far upstream of this location, DID 41 is an open channel ditch. Although the defined surface channel in the parcel was removed during the installation of the DID drain, surface flows beyond drain flows can pass to and along the valley bottom through sheet flows over the current undeveloped site. During the February 1996 flood, 72nd St at Spokane Street was closed for one day due to surface flooding from upland flows. The purpose of the DID drains is to remove excess imgation as opposed to flood flows With the current rapid urbanization occurring in this and other watersheds, and the conversion of rural open land to populated urban development, site layouts in the form of plats have been required by the County to pass upland flows as well as retain site runoff in order to minimize future damage and hardship. The County Engineer designated the Ahtanum -Wide Hollow basin as flood -prone, requiring the passage of 100 -year design storms for upland flows and retention of the 25 -year site runoff. This County standard was established in response to public concerns expressed on future development to reduce risk, damages and hardships. -0."" Bruce Benson March 26, 2008 Page 2 of 2 We do not see provisions for upland flow passage on the current development proposal and request that they be provided for 100 -year flows to avoid unnecessary flooding. From prior submissions to the County we are aware that this development has significantly more area upstream and may have up to 12 phases. We extend our comments to all phases. As disposal of on-site stormwater runoff is a City requirement and has not been shown, we withhold comment. In addition the current DID drain capacity is small but must be maintained to allow passage of upstream subsurface flows to the DID drain in Valleybrook development. We allow relocation of the drain (at reasonable depths) provided that the capacity of all segments exceeds or meets current capacity. We require easy access to the DID lines within an easement for maintenance, cleaning and potential replacement. This is usually obtained through relocations adjacent to roads. The line should be tight -lined to avoid collection of local site runoff. The DID drains are not to accept storm drainage. Please pass the following information to the Sponsor. The line must be designed and installed under the supervision of a Professional Engineer, licensed in the State of Washington. Plans & Specifications must be approved and accepted by Yakima County before any construction can take place. The Sponsor and Contractor shall coordinate installation & construction with Yakima County to minimize disruption of service and operation of the drain system. The Sponsor's Engineer must provide "As -Built" plans to the County prior to acceptance of the construction by the county. In summary the upland surface and DID discharge passage requirements for land upstream of the proposed development must be maintained in new developments to forego flood induced hardships.

Water Resources The water purveyor is responsible for ensuring that the proposed use(s) are within the limitations of its water rights. If the proposal's actions are different than the existing water right (source, purpose, the place of use, or period of use), then it is subject to approval from the Department of Ecology pursuant to Sections 90.03.380 RCW and 90.44.100 RCW. Information for the applicant: If you plan to use water for dust suppression at your site, be sure that you have a legal right. A water right permit is required for all surface water diversions and for any water from a well that will exceed 5,000 gallons per day. (Chapter 90.03 RCW Surface Water Code and Chapter 90.44 RCW Regulation of Public Ground Waters) If in doubt, check with the Department of Ecology, Water Resources Program. Temporary permits may be obtainable in a short time -period. The concern of Water Resources is for existing water rights.

Long Plat #6-07 & ED #42-07 Dear Mr. Futrell: This letter is submitted on behalf of the Yakima Valley Canal Company in reference to the Preliminary Long Plat by Sullivan Rowell properties in the vicinity of South 76th Avenue and West Washington Avenue. As you may be well aware, Yakima Valley Canal Company is an irrigation provider to approximately 2,947 acres within the West Yakima area. The Yakima Valley Canal Company operates and maintains canals and waterlines for delivery for its various members. In regards to the Long Plat referenced above, Yakima Valley Canal Company owns a twenty - foot (20') Right of Way and pipeline along the eastern edge of the above property (Parcel No. 181332-23005). For your reference I have enclosed a copy of the Agreement and Deed from a Mr. William Steward to Yakima Valley Canal Company that was signed December 10, 1913 and recorded with the Yakima County Auditor.

Long Plat #6-07 & EC #42-07 Vicinity of S. 76th Avenue and W. Washington Avenue Dear Development Service Team: RECEIVED FEB 2 2 2008 CITY OF YAKIMA PLANNING DIV. After reviewing the proposed Preliminary Plat of Washington Heights, I wanted to draw your attention to the 20' sewer easement that runs east and west across this proposed development. The school district currently utilizes an 8" sewer line that serves the West Valley High School through this easement. The school district has a concern as to how the developer intends to integrate the existing sewer line into this project and provide uninterrupted service to the West Valley School District. The sewer line was installed in the early 1990's to alleviate a health concern with the failing septic system at the West Valley High School. The sewer line is governed by a four party agreement between the City of Yakima, Yakima County, Terrace Heights Sewer District and the school district. I have included this agreement for your reference. The four party agreement section 4(c) does not allow any other persons or entities to use this sewer line. The school district has been in discussions with the City of Yakima Sewer Department and is willing to transfer this line for public use provided that it continues to serve the school district. The school district would also be in favor of the developer relocating the sewer line so as to properly serve both their development and the school district. To ensure that the West Valley High School can continue to be served by city sewer without interruption, the school district requests mitigation procedures be required to properly integrate the existing sewer line within the development. Mitigation measures may include moving the existing line at the developer's expense so as to not run through proposed lots (as in lot #18). If you have any further questions or concern please feel free to contact me at 509.972.6006. Respectfully, 71 Thomas M.

The information relied upon in reaching this determination is available to the public upon request at the City of Yakima, Planning Division. IDENTIFIED ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS & MITIGATION MEASURES: This Mitigated Determination of Nonsignificance (MDNS) is hereby conditioned upon the following mitigation measures, as authorized under WAC § 197-11-660, Yakima Municipal Code (YMC) § 6.88.160, and the 1997 Yakima Urban Area Comprehensive Plan, which contains goals, policies, and regulations that provides substantive authority to require mitigation under the State Environment Policy Act (SEPA). YAKIMA URBAN AREA COMPREHENSIVE PLAN POLICIES The 1997 Yakima Urban Area Comprehensive Plan (YUACP), Future Land Use Map, designates this area as being suitable for low-density residential development. (YUACP, Map II1-3) Low Density Residential is primarily single family, detached residences. Net residential density before considering roads and right-of-ways is less than 7.0 dwelling units per acre, which is considered the lowest residential density to efficiently support public services. (YUACP, p. I1I-9) The proposed project is less than 7.0 dwelling units per net residential acre. The 1997 Yakima Urban Area Comprehensive Plan goals include the following: Policy G4.1: New urban development should be encouraged to locate first, within the City limits and second, within those portions of the Urban Growth Area where municipal services and public facilities are already present. DOC. INDEX Policy G4.2: Policy T3.6: Policy E1.1: Policy El.2: Policy T3.5: New urban development should be encouraged to be contiguous to existing development to avoid the inefficient "leap -frog" pattern of growth. Curb cuts (driveways) onto collector and arterial streets should be kept to a minimum through the following techniques: 1. The use of intersecting streets as access points; and, 2. Internal design of subdivisions. New developments should be encouraged to locate in areas that are relatively free of environmental problems relating to soil, slope, bedrock and water table. Increased stornwater runoff attributed to new development should not adversely affect downstream properties or structures. New development shall be required to dedicate adequate street rights-of-way for public streets as specified by urban standards. FINDINGS A. Water Quality/Construction Stormwater Pollution Control: O Because this project is more than one acre in size with a potential for stormwater runoff, a NPDES Construction Stonnwater General Permit may be required from the Department of Ecology. o A water right permit is required for all surface water diversions and for any water from a well that will exceed 5,000 gallons per day. (RCW Ch. 90.30 & 90.44) B. Soil Contaminants: Based upon the historical agricultural use of this land, there is a possibility the soil contains residual concentrations of pesticides. The Washington State Department of Ecology recommends that the soils be sampled and analyzed for lead, arsenic, and organochlonne pesticides. If these contaminants are found at concentrations above the MTCA clean up levels the Washington State Department of Ecology recommends that potential buyers be notified of their occurrence. C. Stormwater Management: ® Complete stormwater design plans, specifications, and runoff/storage calculations supporting the stormwater design are required pursuant to the Eastern Washington, Stonnwater Manual and the City of Yakima, Stormwater Management Guide. These plans and control measures must be reviewed and approved by the Yakima City Engineer prior to construction. All stormwater shall be retained onsite. 6 The proposed development of Washington Heights poses some drainage/flooding concerns. Due to the approximately 1000 acres of undeveloped land upstream of the proposed Washington Heights Development, the City is concerned with the flooding threat posed to this proposed development when the ground is frozen (rain on snow, Chinook winds after snow, etc.). In an effort to protect the people and property within the proposed Washington Heights Development, the developer must construct an infiltration pond on the west end of his property. There exists, throughout the length of this parcel, a 200' wide band of soil that drains well, and follows the old creek bed down the draw. The infiltration pond shall be constructed within this band of soil and placed so Sullivan Rowell - Washington Heights Ph. 1 — MDNS — EC #42-07 DOC. 2 INDEX that it captures the floodwaters coming down the draw. The size of the pond shall be two acres with a minimum pond depth of two feet. The bottom of the infiltration pond shall be over -excavated and filled with a two foot layer of clean drain rock. This is necessary to keep the soil under the drain rock from freezing, and thus allowing the runoff to infiltrate into the ground regardless of the temperature. • The Washington Heights development will be required to be designed to retain the 25 - year storm on-site. The larger of the 25 -year three hour short duration storm and the 25 - year 72 hour long duration storm should be used. The design of the drainage system must be completed by a professional engineer, licensed in the State of Washington, and comply with City of Yakima standards as well as those in the Stonnwater Management Manual for Eastern Washington. • If Underground Infection Control (UIC) wells are used in the drainage design then the UIC wells must be registered with the Department of Ecology (DOE) and a copy of the DOE UIC Well registration form and the DOE issued UIC well registration number for each well shall. be delivered to the City of Yakima's Surface Water Engineer before final plat approval will be granted. D. Drainage Improvement District: The current Drainage Improvement District (DID) line must be relocated (at reasonable depths) provided the capacity meets or exceeds current capacity or an easement must be granted for the current location at a width equal to the depth of 16 feet or twice the buried depth, whichever is greater. DID transmission lines are not allowed to accept stonnwater runoff. The developer's engineer must provide "As -Built" plans to Yakima County prior to the County's acceptance of the construction. E. Public Services: Fire & Life Safety: • Appendix "D" of the 2006 International Fire Code requires an approved fire apparatus turn -around when dead end road exceed 150 feet in length. Because Whitman St. and Spokane St. are more than 150 feet in length and come to a dead end, a fire apparatus turn -around is required. • "NO PARKING FIRE LANE" signs shall be displayed in the area of the turn -around, as well as striping of the fire apparatus turn -around. • Fire flow for this location is 3500 GPM at 20 PSI. Static Pressure is 92 PSI. • No fire hydrants are shown on the preliminary long plat. Fire hydrants placement will be determined by Nob Hill Water and the City of Yakima, Fire Department. F. Frontage Improvements/Public Facilities: • Full frontage improvements on both sides of the street are required, with a residential street, curb, gutter, five (5) foot sidewalk, and street lighting. (YMC Title 12) • Stop signs will be required on the north and south side of the intersection of 76th Ave./Washington Ave. and the intersection of 76th Ave./Fremont Ave; and at the intersection of 76th Ave./Whatcom Ave. (YMC Title 12) G. Transportation: • Review under the Transportation Concurrency Ordinance (YMC 12.08) was completed on, April 4, 2008. The review indicated that reserve capacity is available for the proposed development on all impacted Arterial streets. 3 Sullivan Rowell - Washington Heights Ph. 1 — M DNS — EC 442-07 DOC. INDEX G • W. Fremont Way and W. Washington Avenue are extensions of public streets continuing westward serving proposed future development. The developer may wish to consider incorporating some small residential traffic circles (generally 12 to 16 feet in diameter) at some of the four-way intersections to keep vehicle speeds controlled. • The City of Yakima has a planned improvement project at the intersection of S. 72nd Avenue and W. Washington Avenue for a possible roundabout. This development may be asked to contribute a Pro Rata Share of $1,037 for the planned improvement project. • Yakima Valley Canal Company has a right-of-way across the east side of the subject property, which would prevent access to the land as proposed. A public access easement must be obtained to allow traffic to continue along W. Fremont Way and W. Washington Avenues into the proposed development. W. Fremont and W. Washington Avenue are the two required access roads for this development. Failure to obtain a public access easement will require the developer to obtain an alternative access the development. H. Water: Nob Hill Water Association has two 8 inch water lines stubbed out of the Plat of Valleybrook to serve this property. Those lines must be run throughout the development and eventually tie into the line along Zier Road. I. Irrigation: The Yakima Valley Canal Company serves the proposed development. J. Sewer: In order to serve this development and future development in the area, the twelve (12) inch sewer main in Fremont Avenue needs to be extended through this development. The sewer also needs to be extended to the lots north of the proposed plat. The sewer line serving the West Valley School District (WVSD) must be relocated and an agreement must be obtained if the developer intends to use the WVSD line. K. Air Quality/Dust Control: Because this site is located within the Urban Growth Area, no burning is allowed onsite or at any other site. Contractors doing demolition, excavation, clearing, construction, and/or landscaping work on this project must file a dust control plan with the Yakima Regional Clean Air Authority. L. Noise: During project construction, all contractors shall adhere to the City of Yakima noise regulations regarding hours of construction. (YMC § 6.04.180) M. Light and Glare: When provided, lighting shall be directed to reflect away from adjacent properties. (YMC § 15.06.100) N. Aesthetics: The purpose of YMC Ch. 15.05 is to establish certain basic development requirements. These are the minimum criteria that must be met to assure land use compatibility and promote public health, safety, and welfare. The proposed project shall conform to all applicable standards including, but not limited to: building setbacks, lot coverage, fence height, ingress/egress access, and building height.

Washington Ave. (Parcel #181332-23005) was received September 17th, 2007. The City of Yakima does not have jurisdiction at this time to approve your land use application. In order to continue processing your request, this parcel of land must be annexed into the City of Yakima. Part of the application can be processed prior to complete annexation. To proceed with the review of your application, Steve Erickson, the Yakima County Planning Official, must first transfer jurisdiction from Yakima County to the City of Yakima. The letter transferring jurisdiction cannot be submitted until after the Boundary Review Board has determined that this property is annexable. Upon receiving the letter from Yakima County, the application will be reviewed and upon determination of completeness, the SEPA notification process will be initiated.
