The Final Plat is the last phase in the subdivision process and involves a detailed review of street, utility and stormwater construction standards. Recording of the signed Final Plat drawing is required prior to the creation of the individual lots. Approval of a Planned Development Permit is required prior to approval of the Preliminary Plat application since deviations from the City’s Codes are requested. The purpose of Planned Developments (KMC 18.45) is to provide the opportunity for flexible design concepts warranting deviations from normal development standards. Deviations may be approved if the proposal better accommodates the physical conditions of the property and represents an equal or superior product than if applicable sections of the Code were strictly followed. Deviations Requested: For the Planned Development Permit the following five deviations are required to be granted for the Preliminary Plat to be approved: 1. Per KMC 17.20.010(4)(e) all residential lots shall abut a dedicated street for at least thirty (30) feet. The applicant is requesting a deviation from this standard because he is proposing a gated community without public access and is proposing to use private streets to access all lots. 2. The proposed gates to the subdivision will form a dead end at the end of W. 25th Avenue and W. 26th Avenue and will required a vehicle turnaround area. Per the City’s standard residential street detail 2-1 sheet 3 of 4, the standard turnaround diameter for emergency vehicles is fifty three (53) feet. The applicant has requested the turnaround diameter be reduced to forty (40) feet. Per the City’s Fire Department this is not a required emergency vehicle turnaround. 3. Per Residential/Neighborhood street detail 2-1, sheet 2 of 4, streets are to be crowned in the center with a 2% slope to each side of the street. To help minimize grading the applicant has requested that the center crown be eliminated and the streets sloped 2% from the uphill side to the downhill side of the street. 4. Per Residential/Neighborhood street detail 2-1, sheet 2 of 4, sidewalks are separated 5-feet from the inside face of curb to the sidewalk. The applicant has requested the sidewalks be placed adjacent to the curb to minimize vehicle bottoming out problems from curb to garage. 5. The subject property is zoned Residential Suburban and a minimum density of 3 units per acre is required per the Table of Residential Development Standards (KMC 18.12.010 A.2). The proposed density for the project is .76 units per acre. Footnote 2(b) to the Table of Residential Development Standards allows the minimum density to not be applied if it can be demonstrated that due to environmental and/ or physical constraints on the property the minimum density cannot be achieved.

Rear Yard Setback 15-feet No Modification Requested Max. Building Height 30-feet No Modification Requested Property History: 1. The subject parcel was annexed into the City in 1974 (Ord. No. 1754) with a Residential Suburban (RS) zoning designation. 2. The Southridge Sub-Area plan was adopted in April of 2005 which changed the Comprehensive Land Use designation at the top of the hill from Low Density Residential to Open Space. The portion of the parcel at the lower part of the hill remained Low Density Residential. 3. Although the Comprehensive Land Use was changed with adoption of the Southridge Sub-Area plan the zoning remains RS and is inconsistent with the land use at the top of the hill. 4. In August of 2005, City Council approved the Panoramic Heights #4 preliminary plat (Res. 05-31) to allow 45 single family lots on the subject parcel. The property was sold to the applicant before the lots were created through the Final Plat process. 5. In December of 2008 an application for the development of 27 lots was submitted by the current owner/applicant. A pre-decision meeting was conducted by the Kennewick Planning Commission on October 19, 2009 and there was a recommendation that City Council approve the project. 6. City Council conducted a Public Hearing on November 17, 2009 and continued the item until the next meeting without making a decision on approval or denial. The applicant withdrew the application before Council made a decision. Critical Area: The subject parcel contains “Steep Slope” critical areas which includes portions of the site with greater than 15% Slopes. “Shrub Steppe” critical areas exist on the adjacent parcel to the west, but do not exist on the subject parcel. Since “Steep Slope” critical areas exist on the site a Critical Area report is required per KMC 18.58.140, and additional requirements of KMC 18.62.060 for Geologically Hazardous areas must also be met. The City’s Critical Area Ordinance addresses the control of slope stability and erosion and is not an ordinance to prohibit building on slopes unless the slopes are greater than 40%. A Critical Area Report for the project has been submitted by a registered engineer, which includes a Geotechnical Investigation report and Mitigation Plan. The conditions of approval require compliance with the Critical Area Report and Mitigation Plan for final plat approval and construction on individual lots. Requirements of the Mitigation Plan addresses items such as the design of retaining walls to consider “global stability to ensure the slope below the retaining wall(s) remain stable”, review of individual lot “site grading and drainage plans” by a licensed engineer or construction of homes and swimming pools, and control of irrigation and stormwater so the ground does not become saturated. Density: ---PAGE BREAK--- EXHIBIT A-1 Page 5 of 9 Per the Table of Residential Development Standards (KMC 18.12.010 A.2) a minimum density of 3 units per acre is required. The proposed density for the project is .76 units per acre. Footnote 2(b) to the Table of Residential Development Standards allows the minimum density to not be applied if it can be demonstrated that due to environmental and/ or physical constraints on the property the minimum density cannot be achieved. It is staff’s opinion that there are environmental and physical constraints that make it difficult to apply the City’s minimum density requirements. A large portion of the site contains a “Steep Slope” Critical Area with a portion exceeding 40% slope which makes that portion of the site unbuildable. The sloping land also creates more stormwater runoff and by increasing the density it will increase the amount of impervious surface which makes stormwater a more difficult issue to address. Also, at this time City water cannot be provided to areas that are higher than the 810 elevation and over half of the site is above the 810 elevation. And finally, there have been concerns expressed about traffic impacts on the existing Panoramic Heights neighborhood. If the density were increase to 3 units per acre there would be roughly 4 times as many vehicle trips generated from the project. Traffic: The City’s traffic engineer has estimated that the proposed project will generate 364 vehicle trips per day or 38 PM peak hour trips, and has stated that this project meets Concurrency for Transportation. As part of the mitigation for the SEPA Determination the developer will be required to contribute $20,000 for traffic calming measures in the Panoramic Heights neighborhood that can include up to four speed humps or a traffic circle. Storm Water: The City stormwater standard for residential subdivisions is that they are designed to retain and dispose of a 25-year, 24 hour developed state storm with allowance for the continuous overflow, or a 10-year 1-hour storm if proposed pond(s) have and infiltration system. Prior to Final Plat approval the applicant will be required to submit detailed civil engineering drawings for review and approval to the City’s Public Works department. This submittal will include a stormwater plan that will need to meet City standards. The permit will be conditioned to require proof of ownership for any off site property used for stormwater retention. Streets & Utilities: Private streets are proposed for the project which will be built to City standard with the exception of the above minor deviations requested. Easements will be required over utility lines to allow access to utilities. Water and sewer is available by the extension of the existing utility lines in W. 25th Avenue and W. 26th Avenue. Water is not available above Zone 4 water service (810 elevation) which includes portions of lots 1 through 9 and all of lots 37 & 38. If lots 37 & 38 are developed prior to City water available at those lots, water wells will need Health Department approval. For lots 1 though 9, individual booster and pressure storage tanks will be required for all homes with a floor elevation of 810 feet or higher. Parks: Based on the City’s “Park Fee Determination Process” form, which uses land value and density of living units for the calculation it has been determined that for the 38 dwelling unit project the applicant will be required to pay $20,691.72 to mitigate impacts on park zone 6W (Southridge). Park fees will be collected as the project builds out based on a percent of units in the phase of work that a building permit is applied for. Applicable Regulations: ---PAGE BREAK--- EXHIBIT A-1 Page 6 of 9 Planned Development Permits are regulated by KMC 18.45. The following two sections are important to consider when deciding on approval or denial of a project: KMC 18.45.020(2), “The City may approve deviations from certain standards of this Code if the proposal better accommodates the physical conditions of the property and represents an equal or superior product than if applicable sections of the Code were strictly followed, but there may be no deviations from the street standards contained in KMC Titles 5 and 17. The City may reduce required walkways if adequate, safe, pedestrian routes are otherwise established.” It is staff’s opinion that by approving the requested deviations that the proposal will better accommodate the physical conditions of the property and represent an equal or superior product than if applicable sections of the code were strictly followed. KMC 18.45.040: Findings: A Planned Development Permit may be approved only when the following findings are made: The planned development generally conforms to the Comprehensive Plan and zoning district for use, density, open space, circulation, public facilities, and the standards of development set forth therein; The planned development generally conforms with the zoning district uses; The planned development forms an integrated whole of sufficient unity to justify exceptions to the normal regulations of the Kennewick Municipal Code; and The residential development will produce a desirable and stable residential environment in harmony with the surrounding property; or The Commercial development will have proper traffic circulation and parking and should have no adverse effects upon surrounding property; or The industrial development conforms with the applicable performance standards, railroad or truck access and necessary storage, and should have no adverse effects upon surrounding property. It is staff’s opinion that the above findings can be made for proposed project as conditioned. Other regulatory controls and policies include:  City of Kennewick Comprehensive Plan  KMC Title 5, 17 & 18  City of Kennewick Single-Family Residential Design Standards, KMC 18.75  Critical Area Ordinance, KMC 18.58 and KMC 18.62  Washington State Environmental Policy Act Comprehensive Plan: Staff is of the opinion that this request is consistent with and generally conforms to the City’s Comprehensive Plan, and it will implement, goals and policies of the Comprehensive Plan. Particularly the following: URBAN AREA POLICY 3: “Promote new growth consistent with the Comprehensive Land Use Map, the Capital Facilities Plan and the Capital Improvement Plan.” Single-Family housing is a permitted use within Residential Suburban (RS) zoning and Low Density Residential land use. The RS zoning at the top of Thompson Hill is inconsistent with the Open Space Comprehensive Land Use, however that portion of the site has minimal development proposed. ---PAGE BREAK--- EXHIBIT A-1 Page 7 of 9 CRITICAL AREAS AND SHORELINE GOAL 3: “Regulate or mitigate activities in or adjacent to critical areas or the shoreline to avoid adverse environmental impacts.” A Critical Area report with a mitigation plan has been prepared for this project. By allowing the requested deviations it will give the applicant more flexibility in dealing with some of the environmental issues associated with the site. RESIDENTIAL GOAL 4: “Encourage residential development only in urban areas where services can be provided.” City water & sewer is currently available at W. 25th Avenue and W. 26th Avenue. If lots 37 & 38 are developed prior to City water being available above the 810 elevation, Health Department approval will be required for well water. HOUSING GOAL 1: “Support and develop a variety of housing types and densities to meet the diverse needs of the population.” The City of Kennewick hereby RECOMMENDS that Planned Development Permit #10- 01 and Preliminary Plat 10-02 be APPROVED with the following conditions: 1. Comply with City of Kennewick regulatory controls, policies and codes, including the Single-family Residential Design Standards unless otherwise amended by this PDP approval. 2. Comply with the provisions of the Critical Area Report, including requirements of the Mitigation Plan. 3. All fees required by the City shall be paid prior to the approval of the final plat. 4. Development shall be in conformance with the plat drawing date stamped November 19, 2010, Exhibit A-5. 5. A landscape plan must be submitted for approval of all common areas, open spaces and rights of way not left in a natural state, listing the number, location and species of trees, sizes of plant materials and ground cover prior to final plat approval. The landscape plan shall be prepared by a licensed landscape architect or licensed landscape installer drawn to a legible scale. 6. All landscaped areas to be irrigated with an automatic sprinkler system or drip irrigation system the meets the requirements of the Critical Area Report. Xeriscape landscaping is encouraged. 7. Color of retaining wall material to blend with the existing natural landscape. 8. Areas of the plat with slopes exceeding 40% must be protected with an easement and labeled on the Final Plat drawing as unbuildable areas to be undisturbed and left in a natural state. 9. A Homeowner’s Association must be formed prior to phase 1 final plat approval. Each phase must be incorporated into the Association. 10. The Homeowner’s CC&Rs must be amended to include all items of the Critical Area Mitigation plan. ---PAGE BREAK--- EXHIBIT A-1 Page 8 of 9 11. Execute a written agreement to the satisfaction of the City Attorney which will allow the City to make arrangements for maintenance of the common areas, open spaces, private roads, access driveways, and landscaped areas should the Homeowner’s Association fail or refuse to maintain these areas. The arrangement must be recorded prior to the first building permit being issued. 12. Comply with the Public Works memorandum dated December 16, 2010 (Exhibit A-9). 13. Lots above the 810 foot elevation cannot be served by City water. If those lots are developed prior to City water being available, Health Department approval will be required. If floor elevations on lots are higher than the 810 foot elevation, individual booster and pressure storage tanks may be required. 14. Submit a storm comprehensive plan for the entire site. The comprehensive plan needs to be approved by the City for the entire Plat prior to Phase 1 construction plans. 15. Provide proof of land ownership for land used for stormwater runoff retention if it is located off site. 16. The Geotechnical Engineer shall review and sign the plat construction drawings to ensure they meet the intent of the recommendations contained in the geotechnical report. 17. Sewer service to lots on the north side of W. 25th Avenue and W. 26th Avenue may require a pressure pump to each house. If a pressure pump is required, as determined by the City’s Public Works Department, a note will be required on the construction drawings and Final Plat that these lots may require individual sewer pumps. 18. New sidewalks at the private road shall connect to existing sidewalks at W. 25th Avenue and W. 26th Avenue. Gates may be installed to control access. 19. A permit or notification letter is required from Northwest Natural Gas prior to issuing a DPW permit for civil infrastructure construction for gas line crossing inspection. 20.

Citadel Estates City of Kennewick Municipal Code Deviations Citadel Estates proposes to be a true gated community. To facilitate the capability to close the roads from public access, the road system must be developed as private roads. The City's emergency services will have access through the gate system without community personnel assistance. The diameter of the access tum-around is modified from the standard three-foot radius to a forty-foot radius. Should larger trucks or emergency vehicles need to be turned around, they can obtain access and moved through the development from the entrance on26ú Avenue to the exit on 25tr Avenue. The cross slope of the street section is modified from the standard center crown section to a mono-slope section. This will better accommodate the hillside development of the lots. Drainage structues will be located only on the lower section of the roadway. Sidewalks will be located adjacent to the curb. This will better accommodate the hillside development and driveway accesses. The utility easements will be located behind the sidewalk areas. nf\ q a. c}.å,ô!-lt Signature of Applicant EXHIBIT A-6 Page 1 of 2 ---PAGE BREAK--- PRIVATE ROAD CROSS SECTION: SCALE l":10' 10' 40' ROW 10' UTILITY ESMT. 38, ROADWAY UTILITY ESMT.

The site is currently undeveloped land. The site lies west of the current developed land at Panoramic Heights. The east boundary of the site lies west of the term ination of 25'h and 26'h avenues, The enclosed topographic map shows the general location of the site. Scope of Work The Kennewick Municipal Code, Chapter I 8, Zoning contains requirements for "Critical Areas" contained in the following sections: o Critical Areas-Ceneral Provisions (l 8.58) o Critical Areas- Wetlands (l 8.59) o Critical Areas- Critical Aquifer Recharge Area (.l8.60) . Critical Areas- Frequently Flooded Areas (l 8.6l ) . Critical Areas- Geologically Hazardous Areas (.l8.62) . Critical Areas- Fish and Wildlife Habitat Conservation Areas ( t 8.63) This assessment specifically addresses Sub-sections 18.60 and I8.62 with the companion Sub-section of I8.58 that is common to all sub-sections. The remaining sub-sections have been addressed as not applicable in the SEPA checklist prepared bY others. Summary Conclusion We find no impediments to complying with sub-sections .l8.60 and .l8.62 within the framework of the ordinances. Sub-section .l8.60 does not require any action, while Sub-section I8.62 does require sorne m¡tigation via engineering structures and operational I i rnitations' Assessment Proposed DeveloPment Christensen'shows 27 lots along with a proposed finish floor elevation for the main floor of each home. Access to the development will be served by a looped road tying in with Kellogg Street. The drawing is enclosed with this report. This development does contain existing slopes steeper than I 5%that drives the need for an assessment per COK Ordinance 18 -62. Using the axiom that water runs downhill and settles in a low spot, the development is near the base of "Thompson Hill" so COK Ordinance I8.60 is considered as well.

The attached USCS topographical map shows the approximate site location with¡n the site general topograP hY. Regional StratioraPhv Most of the geologic features in this area consist of sedimentary deposits overlying Tertiary volcanic tredrock. The bedrock has been moved, and is cont¡nuing to move, by a general north-south compress ion of the basalt flows forming anticline structures (long rìarrow hills) with an east-west general bearing. This movement includes Thompson Hill. The site is located on the north flank of Thompson Hill. These structures are still moving in the upward direction at an imperceptibly slow rate. Another sma.ller anticlinal fault, alon g the south flank of Thornpson Hill has been mapped2. Local Stratiqraphy Black3 provided a geotechnical investigation for the site with the following comments on stra,tigraphy from the starti ng at the surface: o Recent Aeolian (wind deposited) silt and fine sand. . The Touchet beds consisting of silt with fine sand or fine sand with silt with various deg rees of cementation fro rn calcium carbonate.

Much of Kennewick and Richland are covered with silt and fine sand in various proportions of each. "Silt is inherently unstable, particularly when mo¡sture ¡s increased, with a tendency to become quick when saturated. lt is relatively impervious, difficult to compact, highly susceptible to frost heave, easily erodible and subject to p¡ping and boiling, Bulky g rains reduce compressibility; flaky grains, i.e. micã and diatoms, increase compress ibility and produce 'elastic silt'."'The silt o US Department of Agriculture (Natural Resources Conservation Service).

Page 4 of B EXHIBIT A-7 Page 6 of 48 ---PAGE BREAK--- Chavallo, Citadel Estates (CAR) - July I, 2009 deposits from slow settling water and windblown silt tend to be bulky grained and subject to collaps e under load. The elastic silts most likely were produced by degraded volcan ic ash. The low permeabi lity for water and the red uction in strength, when wetted, requires special ca.re for this development. The Geotechnical Investigation also exarn ined slope stability of existing topography in the developme nt. The results are discussed below: . For an unsaturated condition, the factor of safety (FOS) is 8.5. Normally a I .5 FOS is considered satisfactory for most residential developments. . For a satura.ted condition, with near surface failure, the FOS: 3.47 o For a saturated condition, with deep seated failure, the FOS: 2.9 The slopes for shallow sloughing or face sliding were evaluated, which is a near surface phenome na, where a shallow sheet slides. Dependent on the direction of water seepage g. 90' is vert¡cal and 0" i s horizontal) the FOS changes dependent on the depth of the slide considered. The slide potential in 0.5 ft. increments down to 3.5 ft. deep resulted in the following results o Avertical or 90" seep affords a FOS exceeding 2 in all cases. o A horizonxal or 0o seep affords a FOS: 0.86 in all cases or failure. o A 26.6'seep has a FOS= 2.9 at 0.5 ft. deep and I .4 at 3.5 ft. deep. o A 60" seep affords a FOS: 1.7 in all cases. We found no evidence of seeps. Paul Christenson, P.E., stated that all stormwater runoff, including retaining wall drainage truater, would be incorporated into the site stormwater syste rn that discharges the water on another property both downgrade and to the north concr usions None of the slope boreholes showed existing or seasonal groundwater fluctuations. Therefore, the site does not impact a "Critical Aquifer Recharge Area" (.l8,60). The site does contain hazards associated with "Ceologically Hazardous Areas" (18.62). The hazards considered are erosion, landslides, and seismic areas. These items are discussed below, based on the premise that development will not only concentrate storrnwater due to impermeable surfaces, but irrigation will add water beyond what the normal rainfall produces. Erosion Hazard Areas The surficial silt and fine sand layer is hig hly erodible and subject to erosion. The existing vegetation currently protects the soil, and mitigation measures will be required during construction. Page 5 of 8 EXHIBIT A-7 Page 7 of 48 ---PAGE BREAK--- Chavallo, Citadel Estates (CAR) - July l, 2009 Landslide Hazard Areas Based on the ana.lysis discussed above, the entire site, in the native condition, is stable unless con siderable water is introd uced to the soíl column. The site will require grading for the home lots and sig nificant elevation differences will require retaining walls to maximum lot sizes. Th e weight of the retaining walls will add loads to the slope and storm or irrigation water, if allowed to penetrate the soil column at depth, will add additional loads. Therefore, it is crucial that the retaining walls receive proper design and construction consideration and water entering the soil column be lirnited. Seismic Hazard Areas The aforementioned slope stability analysis considered seismic loads. Althogh we judge that the se i smic hazard is low, seis rnic loading must be considered for the ãesign of the retaining walls that includes the global stability of the wall and the slope below. Mitigation Requirements COK Critical Areas-General Provisions (l 8-58) dírects mítigation of hazards. lmportant elements, to this project, follonr: o MitiÇarion requirements (t 8.58.16O)- As this is to be a residential developme nt, alteration of the geol ogichazards is required due to grading requirements for home sites, Properly designed and constructed retaining walls, along with water intrusion control to the soil column, will not only mitigate, but reduce geologic hazards. o MitiÇarion sequencing (18.58.170)- The first consideration (l ) requires "avoid the impact" which would require leaving the land in its natural stateand not doing the development. This is not viable. The second consideration addresses critical recharge areas and wetlands that do not apply to the s¡te. The third considerat¡on requires "Minimizing or eliminating the hazard by restoring or stabilizing the hazard area through approved engineering or other meth ods." Engineering will be used to reduce the geologic hazards present in the natural state. Mitigation Plan Black3 provides su bstantial recommendations for mitigation of geologic hazards. ln addition to the geotechnical report, the following mit¡gat¡on measures are required: . The design of all retaining walls shall consider global stability to ensure the slope below the retaining wall(s) rernain stabile. lt is not necessary to design Page 6 of 8 EXHIBIT A-7 Page 8 of 48 ---PAGE BREAK--- Chavallo, Citadel Estates (CAR) - July l, 2009 the retaining walls for an elevated groundwater table given the recom me n dations that fol low. . Each lot shall provide a "site grading and drainage plan" along with the request for a building permit. The plan should be stamped by aregistered professional engineer. As part of the plan, stormwaterdischargetothe developme nt's stormwater pond shall be detailed. ln general, ¡t ¡s important that water not pond adjacent the homes or infiltrate into the soil column. . lf swímmin g pools or water features are to be installed, a registered professional engineer should review and approve the plans to ensure consistenc¡/ with the "site grading a.nd drainage plan." . Based on rny experience, the most important feature to ensuring stabilíty of the slopes and retaining walls, witlr the consequent stability of the homes, is positive cor'ìtrol of irrigation. lnsofar as practicable, Xeroscape landscaping should be ulsed. Drip irrigation poses less risk that pressurized irrigation. Each prope rty should install a sprin kler controller that can be programmed for weather conditions, slopes, and soil type (E.9. "WeatherTrac). The setting of the sprin kler controller should be reviewed by a third party to maintain no water saturation below 24 inches deep. . During con struction, the Excavation Safety Standards (Part N) from the Washington State Department of La.bor will protect the workers from injury and the slo pes from failure. The Washington State Departrnent of Ecology requires a "Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan and a permit (see publication #99-37, October 2008) - Adherence to these req uirements will mit¡gate erosion hazards during construction. . Last, the geotechnical engineer sha.ll review the plat construction drawings to ensure the¡z meet the intent of the recommendations contained in the geotechnica.l report, and to ensure maximum isolation of the lean clay layer. The enclosed drawings show the preliminary planned elevations vs, existing topograph¡2. ln most cases the daylíght basement of each home will be at or above existing grade. ln a few cases the basement will cut into the surficial soil no closer than l5 ft, above the lean clay layers. At this point, in the preliminary stage, the separat¡on is sufficient to inhibit sliding or heaving of the clay laYer.

No. 4 - August 2t, 2007 lntroduction This report provides our findings and recommendations for the proposed residential development. The site has been undeveloped land prior to our investigation. The site lies west of the current developed land at Panoramic Heights. The east boundary of the site lies west of the termination of 25,h and 28,n Àvenues. The enclosed topographic map shows the general location of the site. Scope of Work our investigat¡on included drilling, soil classification, soil testing, and measurement of groundwater elevations. Our design recommendations, covered by this report, include the allowable soil bearing pressures, cut and fill recommendations, sub-grade preparation, seismic design information, and stormwater desi g n param eters. Summary Conclusions This site contains mostly windblown sand and silt overlying gravel or remnants of a basalt flow bottom below. This lithology is normally relatively thin as compared to the elastic silt ¡nterbed below. The only exception was Borehole No. 5 that conta¡ned a fairly thick layer of fine sand and silt. For most of the site, slope stability and foundation bearing, with conventional footings, is not an íssue. However, excessive water introduced into the soil can cause soil heave and near surface sliding. Therefore, irrigation and stormwater management is a crucial element of the site design and each constructed home. The ponion of the site near Borehole No. 5 (southeast corner) will require special consideration for slope stability and soil collapse. However, this can be accommodated by deep foundatíons and careful control of írrigation and stormwater. lnvestigation Reqional Stratiqraphv Most of the geologic features in this area consist of sedimentary deposits overlying Tertiary volcanic bedrock. The bedrock has been moved, and is continu¡ng to move, by a general nofth-south compression of the basalt flows forming anticline structures (long narrow hills) with an east-west general bearing. This movement includes Thompson Hill. The site is located on the north flank of Thompson Hill. These structures are still moving in the upward direction at an imperceptibly slow rate.

The following points summarize the results shown in the attached graph: o A vertical or 90" seep affords a FOS exceeding 2 in all cases ¡ A horizontal or 0o seep affords a FOS = 0.86 in all cases or failure o fi 26.6" seep has a FOS:2.9 at 0.5 ft. deep and 1.4 at 3.5 ft. deep o A 60' seep affords a FOS : 1.7 in all cases Concl usions and Recommendations Building on a hillside carries an inherent risk as the soil and rock moves, over time and settles in a low spot. Water added to the soil both exacerbates and accelerates this process. Particularlywith the relatively impermeable soil and rock layers near the surface, homeowner negligence with irrigation and outside water use can cause significant damage to their home and the homes below. However, with reasonable design and construction practices, along with homeowner cooperation, these risks can be largely mitigated to prevent damage during the life of the homes. It is my understanding that at least three retaining walls will be installed to provide level lots. The potential for sliding can be largely mítigated during the design and construction of the retaining walls. The following general recommendations apply to this site. Sub-orade Preparation and Protection For a general guide, the following criteria are appropriate: . Remove all roots and organic material from all areas to receive foundations or any structural covering (gravel or asphalt). We expect the duff to be 4 to 8-inches thick. The duff may be used for landscaping fill only. . The very loose, Aeolian (windblown silt and fine sand) should be excavated, water conditioned, and compacted to prevent foundation and pavement failures. This layer is generally no more than 4 ft. thick and is lacking across a significant poftion of the site. The north 1/3 of the site or so has these Aeolian deposits. . The final sub-grade should be scarified to a depth of at least 4-inches, moisture conditioned and compacted with at least six passes of a I 0,000 lb. PageSofl4 EXHIBIT A-7 Page 19 of 48 ---PAGE BREAK--- Chavallo, Panoramic Hts. No. 4 - August 2l, 2007 vibratory roller. The Geotechnical Engineer, or Civil Engineer of Record, should witness the initial process for compact¡ng the sub-grade and approve the process or make alterations as required. This provides a "proof roll" verification as well. As the site may encounter two different types of soils, compaction equipment recommendations are provided. Fine sand or silt material is water sensitive (it becomes plastic and pumps when over wetted) and highly erodible. Therefore, construction should proceed during the dry season to prevent excessive moisture accumulation, which prevents proper soil compaction. Furthermore, the soil should be water conditioned to l-2%below optimum moisture as excessive moisture causes pumping and requires soil dry before compaction can begin. A "kneading" rather than a vibration and force method most efficiently compacts this soil. Either a padded drum (e.9. Cat CP-433C) or tamp¡ng foot (e.9. Cat 8ì 5F) will best compact this soil. Gravel -The final sub-grade should be scarified to a depth of at least 4- inches, moisture conditioned and compacted with a medíum sized (say 10,000 lb.) vibratory roller imparting at least 350 lbs. dynamic force per inch of drum (e.9. EssickVR-72-T; Ray-Co 300 or Dyna-Pac CA-25T) to an unyielding condition. As an alternative to the unyielding condition the number of passes and water content may be adjusted to provide a sub-grade strength of 40 kips per inch or a modulus of rigidity of at least 995 psf. The Ceotechnical Engineer, or Civil Engineer of Record, should witness the initial process for compacting the sub-grade and approve the process or make alterations as required. This provides a "proof roll" verification as well. Positive drainage away from the pavement sub-grade should be designed and constructed throughout the project. Anticipate 25-35% shrinkage for fine-grained soils and 15-20% for gravelly soils. Structural Fill Requirements - Structural fill is any fill that supports structures (e.9. homes, driveways, roads). Native soils may be used for structural fill if properly moisture conditioned and compacted. The soil 2 ft. or more below finish sub-grade should be compacted to 92% of Maximum Dry DensiÇ using the Modified Proctor (ASTM D-l 557). The upper 2 ft. shall be compactedto 95% of Maximum Dry Density. All select (crushed gravel from off-site) fill or base coarse should be compacted to at least 95% of maximum dry density per ASTM D1557. Page9ofl4 EXHIBIT A-7 Page 20 of 48 ---PAGE BREAK--- Chavallo, Panoramic Hts. No. 4 - August 21, 2007 Fine sand and silt or elastic silt should be compacted in no more than 8-inch deep loose lifts.

No. 4 - August 21, 2007 The most positive approach to protecting the foundations is to eliminate or mitigate water from reaching the foundat¡on subgrade. This is accomplished from gooã site grading, properly iompact¡ng the soil against the exter¡or stemwall, ãvoiding over-wa-tering from irrigation, and maintaining irrigation and domestic pressure pipes and irrlgation heads. The following subsection addresses this crucial item in further detail. lrriqation & Stormwater and Erosion Control Civen the potent¡al geometry of the lot (slopes), it is imperative that the negative effects of excessive irrigation and Storm water be mitigated to protect sloþes, water from entering the homes, and foundation damage due to water saturation. Negligent pract¡ces from upgradient homeowners will not only impact their hõmls, but potential water-related damage would geometrically increase as excessive groundwater moves to the north. The attached "preventing Subsurfacõ Water Damage" should be read thoroughly and applied for this project.

The relatively thin layer of silt and uld provide an exfiltration rate of about 'exfiltration surface per hour in the annon and Wilson borehole log, this soil is te, which is also the lowest. Use an exfiltration rate of about 0.04 ft3 of stormwater per square foot of exfiltration surface per hour in the vertical direction. The efiective porosity of this soil is about 0'-4? ft' water pgll' of soil. Expect near-term water retention (up to three months) of about 0.33 ft'/ft3. This means that successive storms will reqüi* ,p to 6.25 ft3 of soil per ì ft' of stormwater. Depending on the amount of stormwater requiring management, the northeast corner could suffer saturated soil, at depth, and a hiih groundwater table. For example, a successive storm of 2,000 ft, of water would require 12,500 ft' of soil. This is a 40 ft. diameter area I o ft. deep. while stormwater management can be accommodated on-site, with caution, I understand that the city of Kennewick has a stormwater management system that can be used ¡f the water is piped to their system. This may be the most economical alternative. ultimately, one large downgrade pond may provide the best solution. Weather Conditions It is important to recognize that any geotechnical recommendation assumes that weather conditions are suitable for construction. Excessively hot, cold, or wet conditions can create unsatisfactory conditions for construction. Construction planning must include a consideration of weather related construction difficulties.

CITY OF KENNEWICK ENVIRONME NTAL CHECKLIST REVIEW E.D. File # l0 - 56 Action: PP #10-02/PDP #10-01 Reviewby:þ-@i4 Date: Ma¡ch 21.2011 The City of Kennewick has reviewed the checklist and has made changes on it. Please note the following condition(s): Parks For this proposal, PP 10-O2IPLN-2010-04492 & PDP '10-01/PLN-2010-04491, conditions include the mitigation fees for impacts for the addition of 38 single- family dwelling units in Park Planning Zone 6W - Southridge. ln lieu of land dedication fees are required to be paid to Park Planning Zone 6W - Southridge in the amount of $20,691.72 as calculated per the City's Park Fee Determination Process form. This fee must be paid as a percentage of the total amount based on the number of units to be built in each phase of development. Traffic For PP 10-02/PLN-2010-04492 & PDP 10-01/PLN-2O10-O4491, The developer will be required to provide a $20,000 letter of credit to the City to be drawn upon by the HOA for their installation of up to 4 speed humps per city standard or a single traffic circle per city standard. These traffic calming measures will be constructed within the existing Panoramic Heights neighborhood specifically located to mitigate the impacts of increased traffic caused by the proposed development. Location and selection of traffic calming rneasures will be made by the Panoramic Heights Homeowner's Association (HOA) in accordance with KAC 13-40 and subject to the approval by the City. lf said mitigation measures are not started within 5-years of final plat approval; the developer will be released of this obligation. These comments apply to the initíal 38 lots proposed. Additional structures or development or any change of use that increases the traffìc by more than 20 percent may require additional mitigation measures. The baseline for comparison is 364 daily trips or 38 PM peak hour trips. The measures are required as a result of long tangent sections (greater than 1000 feet) within the proposed development and between the development and the fìrst collector/arterial access point. 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 placements.

Erosion control measure must be in place prior to any clearing, grading or construction. These control measures must be able to prevent soilfrom being caried into surface water (this includes storm drains) by stormwater runoff. A stormwater construction permit from Washington State Dept. of Ecology may be required if there is a potential for discharge from a construction site larger than one acre. A Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (Erosion Sediment Control Plan) is needed for all permitted construction sites. Please contact Ray Latham, at the Dept, of Ecology, (509) 575-2807, to determine if your site needs such a permit. Water Resources The water purveyor is responsible for ensuring that the proposed use(s) are within the limitations of its water rights. lf 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. lf you have any questions concerning the Water Resources comments, please contact Breean Zimmerman at (509) 454-7647. 2lL) W Avc-nuc: .

A salmonid is any fish species that spends part of its life cycle ín the ocean and returns to fresh water. Potential project impacts that may result in a "taking" of listed salmonids must be avoided, or mitígated to insignificant levels. Generally, under ESA, a "taking" is broadly defìned as any action that causes the death of, or harm to, the listed species. Such actions include those that affect the environmental in ways that interfere with or reduce the level of reproduction of the species. lf ESA listed species are present or ever were present in the watershed where your project will be located, your project has the potential for affecting them, and you need to comply with the ESA.

The property is located west of the Panoramic Heights neighborhood; west of South Kellogg Street with the extension of 251h and26ù Avenues (1-0889-401-1681-005). The property identified on the proposed preliminary plat is located within the KID boundaries. The property within this preliminary plat was originally classified as non-irrigable land by the United States Bureau of Reclamation (USBR) meaning that KID water cannot be delivered to irrigate the land until the subdivided land and proposed irrigation system meets KID and USBR Specifìcations. In 2009, KID granted a water allocation to this property but that water allocation does not allow for irrigation water delivery from KID until the final proposed subdivision plan meets the KID and USBR Specifications for irrigable land and irrigation systems. Due to potential geotechnical slope stability issues, the Citadel Estates Planned Development is currently under geotechnical review by the USBR for consideration of public safety. The USBR holds title to the KID Main Canal below the proposed subdivision and the slope stability issue could potentially result in a canal breach and subsequent loss of life and property. Once KID receives the geotechnical review from the USBR, the decision will be made by the KID Board of Directors and the USBR whether KID can deliver irrigation water to the proposed Citadel estates development. If the USBR geotechnical analysis allows KID irrigation water to be delivered to the Citadel Estates Planned Development, KID will have the following conditions of approval by the legislative authority for R.C.W. 58.17.310: 1) The following are KID easement requirements: a. Dedicate to KID an irrigation easement 10 feet in width via a recorded deed to match any existing irrigation system centered on an existing water line. b. Dedicate to KID an irrigation easement 10 feet in width, five feet in width if adjacent to a utility easement, along the road frontage of all lots. L2 W.

This includes providing distribution pipelines and infrastructure improvements adequate to provide individual pressurized irrigation services to each lot within the plat. 3) The property owner or developer is required to submit an irrigation plan designed by a professional engineer for review and approval by the KID. The plan may be hand drawn or computer drafted. The plan shall be accurate and to a scale not to exceed I inch: 50 feet. This is a vital step of the approval process. After approval of the plan, completion of all the facilities is required prior to district signature of the plat. Please contact me at 586- 9111 for more information regarding this irrigation plan. 4) The KID must inspect any new irrigation system installations or modifications. The property owner or developer shall contact the KID to anange an inspection at least 48 hours in advance of the desired inspection date. 5) The current year's (2010) remaining assessment of All Final plat reviewed after May 31 or reviewed prior to May 31 but submitted for signature after June 15, must pay the next year's estimated assessment at arute of l25o/o of the current year's assessment rate. Next year's (2011) estimated assessment (53,266.36) for parcel number 1-0889- 401-1681-005 must be paid prior to KID signature on the Final Plat. 6) The following fees for review and inspection also must be paid prior to KID signature on the Final Plat: a. A Final Plat review fee of $400.00. b. An inspection fee of $680.00 ($300 for the first 20 lots plus $20 per lot after 20 lots). This preliminary plat consists of 38 lots and one tract. c. Total for review and inspection fees: $1,080.00 7) An electronic file (AutoCAD 2004 format) and hard copy (6-mil mylar, sealed by a professional engineer) of construction as-builts must be provided to KID. 8) As of May 12,2010 all subdivisions of land are required to be approved by the KID Board of Directors during a KID Board Meeting. KID Board Meetings are regularly scheduled on the first and third Tuesdays of each month. All conditions must be completed prior to submittal to KID for final approval. The submittal for final approval must be received by KID a minimum of two weeks prior to a regularly scheduled Board Meeting in order to be considered atthat meeting.

At this time, the Bureau of Reclamation and KID cannot approve the delivery of irrigation water to this proposed subdivision due to the geo-technical issues stated below. ln addition, the historical geo-technical investigations for the proposed Citadel Estates subdivision recommend xeroscape landscaping due the instability of the soil and potential slide areas on Thompson Hill when irrigation water is applied to the land and the unreliability of 24 hour irrigation monitoring required if irrigation water were to be applied at strictly scheduled rates and amounts for all lots within the proposed Citadel Estates.

The location of the canal is not identified in the drawings or in the slope stability analyses. 3. The slope stability analyses appears to be inadequate. a. There are no non-circular failure analyses. EXHIBIT A-9 Page 10 of 14 ---PAGE BREAK--- i. For non-circular slope stability analyses, the Spencer method should be used. The slope stability program, Gslope, used by the consultant does not appear to have this capability. b. Some of the slope stability analyses show the crítical slip surface going through the basalt which appears to be unlikely. These critical slip surfaces should be reevaluated. c. The deletion of thin layers of elastic silt that are not continuous between borings for simplification is not conservative, The consultant should add these thin layers and estimate where they pÍnch out. d. While the consultant notes that infiltration of water should be limited through drainage and landscaping, it would prudent for some of their analyses to include wetted surface soil by irrigation and rain events. e. Also, it would be prudent to evaluate the effect of leakage from the proposed canal on the slope stability, 4. The soil propert¡es were chosen from low book values. The consultant should use correlations with blow counts or Atterberg limits to determine values when possible. 5. The consultants properly used zero cohesion values for drained conditions in their slope stability. Zero cohesion is standard practice in the industry and should not be consider overly conseruative. Despíte all my reseruations, the project design may be adequate but without the above information it is hard to determine its level of safety.

Subject: Chavallo development in Panoramic Heights I have only one concern regarding this proposed development of 38 lots at the west end of 25th Avenue and that is the increased traffic that will occur with no increased access. These are obviously going to be upscale homes with likely two cars per household. Add to that service vehicles that will visit daily and you can easily add 100 cars a day to traffic that accesses Panoramic Heights via the lrving roundabout and 25th Avenue. Has this even been cons¡dered? An if so what steps are being taken to mitigate the increase in traffic?
