About the Project
The Central Maintenance Facility, also known as the Renton Shop, of the King County Department of Natural Resources and Parks is receiving new buildings and yard facilities to improve their workplace environment and operational facilities to accommodate future staff growth. This new operations and maintenance facility supports the park’s management of regional trails and parks throughout the county, with a design that addresses their need for increased office space, meeting rooms and storage, enhanced vehicle and pedestrian safety and improved site circulation and flow. The facility has been designed to achieve Energy Petal certification with the International Living Futures Institute and achieve net positive solar energy production.

A Net-Zero Approach
The facility will also be designed with a range of sustainable functions and utilities to meet the Living Building Institute’s Net Zero Energy requirements, which include mixed mode, natural ventilation along with daylight harvesting systems in office areas and shop spaces.
