Project Description: Madrona Ridge is a 167-lot detached single-family development of
34.4-acres lying west of Rainier Street, north of the Discovery Road roundabout and
thth
undeveloped 15 Street. Project elements do lie east of Rainier Street and north of 15
Street to incorporate one (1) of the project’s four (4) planned stormwater facilities.
New public internal roads west of Rainier St. will provide public vehicular, non-
motorized and utility access to most lots. A series of private roadways serving some lots
are also proposed. The new internal public street network provides future connections
to lands west and south of Madrona Ridge. Rainier Street, as the principal arterial
serving the site, is shown with additional right-of-way dedication and improvements on
both sides of the project boundary.
Several confirmed wetlands exist both on and off-site. On-site wetlands are shown in
the project as modified but retained as open space through use of buffer averaging.
