COMMISSION BUSINESS
Discussion; 2021 Federal Way Comprehensive Plan Amendments — Manager Niven introduced the topic.
The city received two citizen -initiated proposed comprehensive plan amendments; the vacant Bally's
fitness center (32818 1" Avenue South) and two parcels on Steel Lake (1931 South 304"' Street). At their
June 15, 2021, meeting the City Council voted to place both proposals on the final Docket for further
study. Earlier today, the Steel Lake proposal was withdrawn, leaving only the Bally's proposal. Associate
Planner Natalie Kamieniecki will be delivering the presentation regarding the Bally's proposal. The intent
of tonight's meeting is for information and questions, not deliberations.
Earlier today Attorney van Alstyne sent the Commissioners information regarding the Appearance of
Fairness Doctrine. Commissioner Noble-Gulliford asked what is the timeframe that Commissioners
should be aware of in regards to ex parte communication? When the hearing has been advertised,
scheduled or? Attorney van Alstyne responded the timeframe for ex parte communications is from the
date the matter became "pending" before the Planning Commission. That date is when the Land Use and
Transportation Committee (LUTC) voted to direct staff to research the applications, which was June 7,
2021. At that point, the applications were destined for Planning Commission consideration.
Commissioner Noble-Gulliford stated that Commissioners don't always know when LUTC decides to
send an item to them, will staff inform us in the future? Attorney van Alstyne replied that staff will keep
the Commissioners informed.
Planner Kamieniecki went into more detail about the comprehensive plan amendment process. Once the
applicant has submitted their documentation (deadline this Friday), staff will begin the SEPA review
process. Once the comment and appeal periods are completed, staff will prepare a report for a Planning
Commission Public Hearing (planned for September). Once that is concluded, the report will go to the
Planning Commission Minutes Page 1 July 21, 2021
LUTC and City Council for deliberation and possible adoption. The applicant is requesting a change of
zoning and comprehensive plan designation from Office Park to Multifamily (RM 1800). The property is
located at the southeast intersection of 1st Avenue South and South 328th Street, is currently vacant, and
consists of six acres. It is surrounded by residential and some businesses. The applicant states that there is
no market demand for a health and fitness club at this location. Demand for housing is rapidly increasing
within the city and region resulting in a lack of diverse housing options and lack of housing inventory.
This amendment will help with that lack.
Commissioner Noble-Gulliford noted this property was developed as part of a master plan community (she
believes in the '70s). Are there any underlying covenants, concomitants, or other restrictions on the
property? Planner Kamieniecki stated she will need to research this issue. More thorough research and
review will be done as part of the SEPA review process.
Commissioner Patrick asked if the city has received inquiries from businesses about using this property. How
does the market look in this area for office? What is the likelihood anyone would utilize it as office use?
Planner Kamieniecki stated she will need to research this issue. For the three years she has been with the city,
there have been no inquires for office use at this location. Manager Niven commented there is research staff
can perform that will give insight into this issue. Staff can check our Planning inquiry folder, we can ask the
property owner if they know of any inquiries, and we can look at how long the building has been empty.
STAFF BUSINESS
Manager's Report — Manager Niven stated the Housing Action Plan (HAP) went to the City Council last
night for adoption and Council Members expressed concern over the small amount of public engagement
and noted that all pubic outreach was done during the pandemic. Council requested staff hold an in -person
open house. It will probably be held in early September. Afterward, the HAP will go back to LUTC and
the City Council. Commissioner Carlson asked if there are meaningful comments to the HAP, will it first
come back to the Planning Commission? Manager Niven replied that if there are substantive comments it
will likely come back to the Planning Commission first. If not, then just to LUTC and Council.
The City Council will likely hold Planning Commission interviews in September.
The state legislative House Bill 1220 was discussed at last night's City Council meeting. The bill speaks
to the placement of homeless housing and emergency shelters. As a result of this bill, King County is
planning such housing in two hotels in Federal Way. There were a lot of contentious public comments.
City staff is preparing code amendments to address this issue and will be bringing them to Planning
Commission for discussion on August 4th and public hearings on August 18th and possibly September 1St
Vice -Chair O'Neil will be out of town on August 4' but may be able to attend via Zoom.
Commissioner Noble-Gulliford asked if the next meeting will be in -person or via zoom. Manager Niven
replied that to date we have not received direction from the Mayor's office. They are working on
technical issues because according to the state, all commission in -person meetings must now be televised.

MEMORANDUM
DATE: 27 July 2021
TO: Federal Way Planning Commission
FROM: Keith Niven, AICP, CEcD
Planning Manager
CC: Brian Davis
Community Development Director
SUBJECT: Proposed Code Amendments For Permanent Supportive Housing and Emergency
Housing and Shelter (File 21-103086-00-UP)
I. BACKGROUND
Homelessness, housing insecurity, and housing affordability have all become common headlines in Western
Washington for the past several years. Although the Federal Way Revised Code (FWRC) provides for some
forms of transitional housing, recently adopted state law imposes new requirements on cities with compliance
deadlines of July and September 2021.
ESHB1220
In May 2021, the state legislature approved Engrossed Second Substitute House Bill (ESHB) 1220
(Attachment 1). According to the newly approved legislation, starting July 25"', "a city shall not prohibit
transitional housing or permanent supportive housing in any zones in which residential dwelling units or
hotels are allowed." Furthermore, by September 30", cities must either: 1) allow indoor emergency shelters
and indoor emergency housing in zones in which hotels are allowed; or 2) permit indoor emergency shelters
and indoor emergency housing in a majority of zones within one -mile of transit.
As identified in this bill, cities retain the authority to impose reasonable regulations on occupancy, spacing,
and intensity of use requirements on the housing types listed above, to protect public health and safety.
However, such ordinances cannot prevent the siting of a sufficient number of these housing and shelter types
necessary to accommodate each city's projected need under RCW 36.70A.070(2)(a)(ii).
FWRC
Currently, the FWRC provides a definition for social service transition housing:
"Social service transitional housing" means facilities providing temporary and transitional housing
to individuals on an as -needed basis, operated by a nonprofit social service agency, licensed as
required by the state, including, but not limited to, emergency shelters, homeless shelters, domestic
violence shelters, and other such crisis intervention facilities; but excluding offices and group homes
as defined in this chapter. Any limitation on the number of residents in social service transitional
housing shall not be applied if it prohibits the city from making reasonable accommodations to
Proposed Code Amendments - 2021 Page 1 of 11
disabled persons in order to afford such persons equal opportunity to use and enjoy a dwelling as
required by the Federal Fair Housing Amendments Act of 1988, 42 USC 3604(f)(3)(b). This
definition shall not be applied to the extent that it would cause a residential structure occupied by
persons with handicaps, as defined in the Federal Fair Housing Amendments Act of 1988, to be
treated differently than a similar residential structure occupied by other related or unrelated
individuals. See FWRC 19.105.060 and FWRC Title 19, Division VI, Zoning Regulations.
As a defined land use, social service transitional housing is currently allowed in the following zones:
■ Multifamily Residential
■ Neighborhood Business
■ Community Business
■ City Center Frame
Determining Projected Need
As stated in ESHB 1220, each jurisdiction is to provide "...a sufficient number of these housing and shelter
types necessary to accommodate each city's projected need." To determine the city's projected need, the city
would generally look for guidance from the state and King County. However, the Department of Commerce has
stated they believe they will not be able to provide relevant data to King County until December 2022. Then,
King County staff will need to allocate the number received from the state to the cities and unincorporated parts
of the county. In other words, Federal Way will likely not receive any relevant data to help inform this number
until mid-2023, despite being legally required to accommodate the quantity of need for such uses now.
In the absence of state- or county -provided data, to determine the number of currently homeless in Federal
Way, the best information available comes from the 2020 Seattle/King County Point in Time Count of
Individuals Experiencing Homelessness. Unfortunately, the information is not provided at a city level. Rather
it has been provided regionally (see below).

Southwest King County includes Renton, Tukwila, Burien, SeaTac, Des Moines, Vashon, Federal Way, a
portion of Milton, a portion of Auburn, and Kent. Looking at total population numbers for these cities,
Federal Way represents approximately 17 percent of the population comprising Southwest King County.
Taking a straight percentage of the total homeless population (sheltered and unsheltered) found in Southwest
King County would mean Federal Way's proportionate share is (822 + 1115) x .17 = 329.
Looking at the growth and decline of homelessness over the past four years (see graph), the absolute change
from 2016 to 2020 (four years) represents an increase over that period of 10 percent. Extending that projection
over 20 years (assuming a constant rate of growth) would generate the following numbers for Federal Way:
2020-2024: 329 x 1.1 = 362
2024-2028: 362 x 1.1 = 398
2032-2036: 398 x 1.1 = 438
2026-2040: 438 x 1.1 = 482
Proposed Code Amendments - 2021 Page 2 of 10
The 20-year need is the current count plus the anticipated 20-year growth or 329 + 120 (482 — 362) = 449.

Although there are several data sources, the street count was conducted on one night (January 24, 2020) and is
generally regarded as an underrepresentation of those truly homeless. (A 2001 study using administrative data
collected from homeless service providers estimated that the annual number of homeless individuals is 2.5 to
10.2 times greater than can be obtained using a point in time count. Stephen Metraux et al., Assessing
Homeless Population Size Through the Use of Emergency and Transitional Shelter Services in 1998: Results
from the Analysis of Administrative Data from Nine US Jurisdictions, 116 Pub. Health Rep. 344, [2001]).
Using a conservative multiplier of 2.5 (see note above), 449 x 2.5 = 1,123. This forecast represents the
combined shelter and permanent housing units to accommodate the city's needs for the next 20 years.
11. PROPOSED CODE AMENDMENTS (Summary)
This section provides a summary of the proposed code amendments. The complete proposed zoning code text
is enclosed in Attachment 2. The issues these proposed code amendments are attempting to resolve are:
1. Ensure the FWRC is consistent with the requirements of ESHB 1220;
2. Create local standards to ensure compatibility, where the statute allows; and
3. Clarify any inconsistencies in the existing code with the provisions of the statute.
A. Since the city's definition for "social service transitional housing" does not closely align with the
definitions of the uses regulated in ESHB 1220, staff are recommending deleting this definition and
replacing it with two newly defined terms:
1. Permanent supportive housing and transitional housing; and
2. Emergency housing and shelter.
B. Social service transition housing and shelters are also listed under the definition for "Essential Public
Facilities." Since the city is choosing to specifically define these land uses and provide use -specific
standards for them, under the city code they will not be considered essential public facilities.
C. The proposed code revision will make the following changes:

D. Since "emergency housing and shelter" contemplates similar uses to the previously existing social service
transitional housing, and to avoid the necessity to invent new standards, "emergency housing and shelter"
is utilizing the separation and intensity standards that belonged to social service transitional housing.
E. Since "permanent supportive housing and transitional housing" is a new land use designation that is not
sufficiently similar to the previously existing social service transitional housing, standards needed to be
created for each of the zones in which it will be permitted. To determine if the separation criteria would
allow for adequate capacity, Attachment 3 was prepared. Attachment 3 identifies that up to 18 facilities of
up to 50 or 110 units could be located in the city generating up to 1,260 residences.
F. Attachment 2 contains the complete changes. The following chart identifies the major discretional
provisions with a comparison to what is allowed currently.

No comments were received as of the date of this memorandum.
V. REASON FOR PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION
FWRC Chapter 19.80.130 provides criteria for zoning text amendments. The following section analyzes
compliance of the proposed zoning text amendments with the criteria provided by this chapter. The city may
amend the text of the FWRC only if it finds that:
1. The proposed amendments are consistent with the applicable provisions of the comprehensive plan.
The proposed FWRC text amendments are consistent with the following Federal Way Comprehensive
Plan (FWCP) policies and goals:
LUP1 Use development standards and design guidelines to maintain neighborhood character
and ensure compatibility with surrounding uses.
LUG3 Preserve and protect Federal Way's single-family neighborhoods.
LUG3.1 Provide a wide range of housing densities and types in the single-family designated areas.
HG1 Preserve and protect the quality of existing residential neighborhoods and require new
development to be of a scale and design that is compatible with existing neighborhood character.
HG2 Involve the community in the development of new housing to a degree that is consistent
with the scale of impact on the surrounding neighborhoods.
HG3 Develop a zoning code that provides flexibility to produce innovative housing solutions,
does not burden the cost of housing development and maintenance, and diversifies the range of
housing types available in the City.
HP12 The FWRC and Land Use chapter of the FWCP will be coordinated to facilitate locating
housing affordable to low-income, very low-income, and special needs households throughout
the City, especially around the City Center and other areas that provide proximity to
employment, safe and convenient access to transportation and human services, and adequate
infrastructure to support housing development.
HP21 Promote fair housing access to all persons without discrimination.
HG7 Develop a range of housing opportunities that meet the requirements of people with
special housing needs, including the elderly, mentally ill, victims of domestic abuse, and
persons with physical and/or developmental disabilities.
Proposed Code Amendments - 2021 Page 8 of 10
HP39 Periodically review the FWRC and remove any regulatory barriers to locating special
needs housing and emergency and transitional housing within the City as required by the
federal Fair Housing Act, to avoid over -concentration, and to ensure uniform distribution
throughout all residential and mixed -use zones.
HG8 Develop emergency shelter and transitional housing facilities for the homeless.
HP44 Emergency shelters should be permitted and regulated to ensure there are adequate
opportunities to locate them within the City, to avoid overconcentration of facilities, to ensure
that such facilities and housing are properly managed, and to avoid or mitigate significant
impacts on existing residential neighborhoods or other surrounding use
2. The proposed amendments bear a substantial relationship to public health, safety, or welfare.
The governmental power to include zoning regulations potentially limiting the rights of property owners
is not unlimited, and must substantially advance legitimate public interests and bear a substantial
relationship to the public health, safety, or general welfare. The proposed FWRC text amendments do not
limit the rights of property owners as it allows newly -defined land uses in established zoning districts
where "permanent supportive housing and transitional housing" and "emergency housing and shelter"
may potentially locate. Also, it establishes separation standards from like facilities, intensity, and setback
standards particular to these uses and creates a public review process that is intended to protect the health,
safety, and welfare of the general community.
3. The proposed amendments are in the best interest of the residents of the city.
The proposed FWRC text amendments allow the city to legally regulate the location (setbacks and
separation requirements), intensity (limit on units in one location), and parking requirements (similar to
other multifamily housing). The proposed amendments clarify existing ambiguities in the code. And, the
proposed amendments require all permits to be reviewed under a process (Level III) where public notice
will be given. For these reasons, the proposed amendments will be in the best interest of the residents of
the city.
Vl. STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Subject to public comment and commission deliberation, based on the above staff analysis and decisional
criteria; staff recommends that the proposed amendments (Attachment 2) to FWRC Title 19, "Zoning and
Development Code," be recommended for approval to the Land Use/Transportation Committee (LUTC) and
City Council with the condition that the separation requirements be revisited in 2023 when the city receives
city -specific need data from King County.

subsection, but are not subject to the requirements of (c)(ii) and
(iii) of this subsection.
(B) Any development or redevelopment other than an industrial
area or an industrial use within a mixed -use area or an industrial
area under this subsection (5)(d)(i) must be principally designed to
serve the existing and projected rural population.
(C) Any development or redevelopment in terms of building size,
scale, use, or intensity shall be consistent with the character of
the existing areas. Development and redevelopment may include changes
in use from vacant land or a previously existing use so long as the
new use conforms to the requirements of this subsection (5);
(ii) The intensification of development on lots containing, or
new development of, small-scale recreational or tourist uses,
including commercial facilities to serve those recreational or
tourist uses, that rely on a rural location and setting, but that do
not include new residential development. A small-scale recreation or
tourist use is not required to be principally designed to serve the
existing and projected rural population. Public services and public
facilities shall be limited to those necessary to serve the
recreation or tourist use and shall be provided in a manner that does
not permit low -density sprawl;
(iii) The intensification of development on lots containing
isolated nonresidential uses or new development of isolated cottage
industries and isolated small-scale businesses that are not
principally designed to serve the existing and projected rural
population and nonresidential uses, but do provide job opportunities
for rural residents. Rural counties may allow the expansion of small-
scale businesses as long as those small-scale businesses conform with
the rural character of the area as defined by the local government
according to RCW 36.70A.030(((16))) (23). Rural counties may also
allow new small-scale businesses to utilize a site previously
occupied by an existing business as long as the new small-scale
business conforms to the rural character of the area as defined by
the local government according to RCW 36.70A.030(((16-))) (23). Public
services and public facilities shall be limited to those necessary to
serve the isolated nonresidential use and shall be provided in a
manner that does not permit low -density sprawl;
(iv) A county shall adopt measures to minimize and contain the
existing areas or uses of more intensive rural development, as
appropriate, authorized under this subsection. Lands included in such

existing areas or uses shall not extend beyond the logical outer
boundary of the existing area or use, thereby allowing a new pattern
of low -density sprawl. Existing areas are those that are clearly
identifiable and contained and where there is a logical boundary
delineated predominately by the built environment, but that may also
include undeveloped lands if limited as provided in this subsection.
The county shall establish the logical outer boundary of an area of
more intensive rural development. In establishing the logical outer
boundary, the county shall address (A) the need to preserve the
character of existing natural neighborhoods and communities, (B)
physical boundaries, such as bodies of water, streets and highways,
and land forms and contours, (C) the prevention of abnormally
irregular boundaries, and (D) the ability to provide public
facilities and public services in a manner that does not permit low -
density sprawl;
(v) For purposes of (d) of this subsection, an existing area or
existing use is one that was in existence:
(A) On July 1, 1990, in a county that was initially required to
plan under all of the provisions of this chapter;
(B) On the date the county adopted a resolution under RCW
36.70A.040(2), in a county that is planning under all of the
provisions of this chapter under RCW 36.70A.040(2); or
(C) On the date the office of financial management certifies the
county's population as provided in RCW 36.70A.040(5), in a county
that is planning under all of the provisions of this chapter pursuant
to RCW 36.70A.040(5).
(e) Exception. This subsection shall not be interpreted to permit
in the rural area a major industrial development or a master planned
resort unless otherwise specifically permitted under RCW 36.70A.360
and 36.70A.365.
(6) A transportation element that implements, and is consistent
with, the land use element.
(a) The transportation element shall include the following
subelements:
(i) Land use assumptions used in estimating travel;
(ii) Estimated traffic impacts to state-owned transportation
facilities resulting from land use assumptions to assist the
department of transportation in monitoring the performance of state
facilities, to plan improvements for the facilities, and to assess

the impact of land -use decisions on state-owned transportation
facilities;
(iii) Facilities and services needs, including:
(A) An inventory of air, water, and ground transportation
facilities and services, including transit alignments and general
aviation airport facilities, to define existing capital facilities
and travel levels as a basis for future planning. This inventory must
include state-owned transportation facilities within the city or
county's jurisdictional boundaries;
(B) Level of service standards for all locally owned arterials
and transit routes to serve as a gauge to judge performance of the
system. These standards should be regionally coordinated;
(C) For state-owned transportation facilities, level of service
standards for highways, as prescribed in chapters 47.06 and 47.80
RCW, to gauge the performance of the system. The purposes of
reflecting level of service standards for state highways in the local
comprehensive plan are to monitor the performance of the system, to
evaluate improvement strategies, and to facilitate coordination
between the county's or city's six -year street, road, or transit
program and the office of financial management's ten-year investment
program. The concurrency requirements of (b) of this subsection do
not apply to transportation facilities and services of statewide
significance except for counties consisting of islands whose only
connection to the mainland are state highways or ferry routes. In
these island counties, state highways and ferry route capacity must
be a factor in meeting the concurrency requirements in (b) of this
subsection;
(D) Specific actions and requirements for bringing into
compliance locally owned transportation facilities or services that
are below an established level of service standard;
(E) Forecasts of traffic for at least ten years based on the
adopted land use plan to provide information on the location, timing,
and capacity needs of future growth;
(F) Identification of state and local system needs to meet
current and future demands. Identified needs on state-owned
transportation facilities must be consistent with the statewide
multimodal transportation plan required under chapter 47.06 RCW;
(iv) Finance, including:
(A) An analysis of funding capability to judge needs against
probable funding resources;

(B) A multiyear financing plan based on the needs identified in
the comprehensive plan, the appropriate parts of which shall serve as
the basis for the six -year street, road, or transit program required
by RCW 35.77.010 for cities, RCW 36.81.121 for counties, and RCW
35.58.2795 for public transportation systems. The multiyear financing
plan should be coordinated with the ten-year investment program
developed by the office of financial management as required by RCW
4 7 . 0 5 . 0 3 0 ;
(C) If probable funding falls short of meeting identified needs,
a discussion of how additional funding will be raised, or how land
use assumptions will be reassessed to ensure that level of service
standards will be met;
(v) Intergovernmental coordination efforts, including an
assessment of the impacts of the transportation plan and land use
assumptions on the transportation systems of adjacent jurisdictions;
(vi) Demand -management strategies;
(vii) Pedestrian and bicycle component to include collaborative
efforts to identify and designate planned improvements for pedestrian
and bicycle facilities and corridors that address and encourage
enhanced community access and promote healthy lifestyles.
(b) After adoption of the comprehensive plan by jurisdictions
required to plan or who choose to plan under RCW 36.70A.040, local
jurisdictions must adopt and enforce ordinances which prohibit
development approval if the development causes the level of service
on a locally owned transportation facility to decline below the
standards adopted in the transportation element of the comprehensive
plan, unless transportation improvements or strategies to accommodate
the impacts of development are made concurrent with the development.
These strategies may include increased public transportation service,
ride -sharing programs, demand management, and other transportation
systems management strategies. For the purposes of this subsection
(6), "concurrent with the development" means that improvements or
strategies are in place at the time of development, or that a
financial commitment is in place to complete the improvements or
strategies within six years. If the collection of impact fees is
delayed under RCW 82.02.050(3), the six -year period required by this
subsection (6)(b) must begin after full payment of all impact fees is
due to the county or city.
(c) The transportation element described in this subsection (6),

(6) The city or county must apply abutting lot setbacks to
accessory dwelling units on lots abutting zones with lower setback
requirements;
(7) The city or county must establish an amnesty program to help
owners of unpermitted accessory dwelling units to obtain a permit;

converted from existing structures, including but not limited to
detached garages, even if they violate current code requirements for
setbacks or lot coverage;
(11) A city or county may not require public street improvements
as a condition of permitting accessory dwelling units; and
(12) A city or county may require a new or separate utility
connection between an accessory dwelling unit and a utility only when
necessary to be consistent with water availability requirements,
water system plans, small water system management plans, or
established policies adopted by the water or sewer utility provider.
If such a connection is necessary, the connection fees and capacity
charges must:
(a) Be proportionate to the burden of the proposed accessory
dwelling unit upon the water or sewer system; and
(b) Not exceed the reasonable cost of providing the service.

"Dwelling unit" means one or more rooms in a structure or structures, excluding mobile homes and outdoor
storage containers and similar structures used or designed to be used as living facilities, providing complete,
independent living facilities exclusively for one family, including permanent provisions for living, sleeping,
cooking and sanitation. A factory -built home or manufactured home is considered a dwelling unit under this
title only if it meets the standards and criteria of a designated manufactured home established in RCW
35 ^�45 35A.63.145. There are the following 4$12 types of dwelling units:
(1) `Dwelling unit, attached" means a dwelling unit that has one or more vertical walls in common with or
attached to one or more other dwelling units or other uses and does not have other dwelling units or other uses
above or below it.
(2) "Dwelling unit, detached" means a dwelling unit that is not attached or physically connected to any other
dwelling unit or other use.
(3) "Dwelling unit, efficiency" means a small one -room unit, which includes all living and cooking areas with
a separate bathroom.
(4) "Dwelling unit, stacked" means a dwelling unit that has one or more horizontal walls in common with or

(7) "Dwelling unit, small lot detached" means detached residential dwelling units developed on multifamily -
zoned property. Each unit is located on its own fee -simple lot. One of the dwelling unit's sides may rest on a
lot line (zero lot line) when certain site development conditions are met.
(8) `Dwelling unit, special needs housing" means housing not specifically defined by this title, and which will
be processed under the classification most closely related to the proposed use, as determined by the director.
(9) `Dwelling unit, studio" means a one -room unit, which includes all living and cooking areas with a separate
