Renton amends municipal code subsection related to vacant structures; council approves ordinance

The Renton City Council adopted an ordinance amending the Renton Municipal Code by repealing subsection 4.1.190(g)(4) while reserving the subsection authorizing corrections. The change was described in the meeting as a docket item regarding vacant structures.

The ordinance was read for second and final reading and approved by roll call. Council members recorded unanimous support.

Why it matters: The amendment alters the code language governing vacant structures as described in the ordinance summary. The council did not discuss detailed operational implications at length during the meeting; staff or the Planning Department may provide further implementation guidance at committee meetings or in subsequent notices.

Next steps: The ordinance takes effect as provided in the text; staff may issue implementing procedures or notices as required by code.
