E. P AA Update - Store Creek and Von Doenhoff
Kathy McClung provided the background on this item. She noted that the city may be required to separate the
two annexation areas for voting purposes. The Boundary Review Board determined that the areas must connect
in some fashion in order to hold one vote. If they do not connect (which is currently the case) a vote must be
done for each area. The staff is researching this issue and possible ways of connecting the areas. This is an
issue for the city because a separate vote may not meet our population requirements per the state tax incentive
and will not meet the requirements for the King County agreement. The City of Milton has not made any
decisions on the Stone Creek subdivision area, but Federal Way staff is proceeding with the Federal Way City
Council's position to prepare an annexation resolution for the area completely within our PAA.
F. Road Connectivity - Comp Plan Policy & Codes
Rick Perez provided the background on this item. Chairman Dovey commented that no decision will be made
on this issue this evening. This item is to inform Council Members of the policies provided in the current city
code and comprehensive plan.
Public Testimony
Jan Mauritz, 31219 36th Avenue SW He lives close to the double cul-de-sac. He feels the overall policy
for connectivity would destroy his neighborhood It isn't proactive. An attempt to solve a problem in
one neighborhood would cause a problem in another neighborhood.
Mary Wendt, resident of Bayview Country Estates, on 36th Avenue SW She understands the need for
roads, but it makes no sense to open up arterials in established neighborhoods. Those who live in the
neighborhood know where to look for children and where to slow down, someone passing through will
not. She doesn't believe the argument that more access is needed for police and fire because she
doesn't believe they would travel such a convoluted route.
James Church, 3620 SW 30cjh Street. Was on the homeowners association a few years ago and work to
ensure police andfire had keys to the gate. He likes his neighborhood the way it is. Opening the gate
would not benefit Bayview or Twin Lakes and would cause deterioration of the neighborhoods. The
streets are narrow and he sees no reason to open the gate.
Robert Hankinson, 3628 SW 30cjh Street. He stated that it seems the impetus for this issue didn't come
from the developer, or even the city, in that it has to do with policy. So he reviewed the policies and
feels thefollowing comprehensive plan policies seem to mandate against opening the gate: TP23,
TP25. and TP37. One consequence of opening the gate is that some traffic will pass through
neighborhoods that are not use to that traffic. This would bring congestion and diminish the security
and safety of the neighborhoods. He is strongly opposed to opening the gate on a permanent basis.
Scott Glasgow, 31503 36th Avenue SW He lives on the north side looking down the cul-de-sac. There is
already a lot of traffic on 36th Avenue SW and the width of the street is a problem. If cars are parked
on both sides of the street, it wouldn't be safe for two cars to pass between them because there isn't
enough room. There is also a dip in the road.

Land Use/Transportation Committee Page 3 September I I, 2006
Christian Jeager, 313th Street SW (near Dumas Bay Park). His home has a direct view of the proposed
connection. He would be directly affected by increased traffic, noise, and light pollution. His folks live
in Twin Lakes near the proposed connection and are opposed to another access to Twin Lakes. There
is no need for additional access. Concerned that while it would provide access for emergency vehicles;
others would use it and would create the need for another traffic light. It would destroy the peace of a
long-standing neighborhood. The question is who would really benefit? He is also concerned about the
land clearing. Who would benefit other than the developer? Developers have been giving carte
blanche to develop what ever pristine land is left within the city limits. Further development degrades
the quality of life in Federal Way. The road connectivity issue seems to be a smoke screen for cutting
down the trees to make room for another development we don't need or want. He asked the city to
consider dealing with the on-going traffic problems at 21st and 22nd Avenues SWat 356th Street.
Ken Wilson. 30908 36th Avenue SW He is the president of the Bayview Estates HOA. There was an
agreement between King County, Bayview Estates, and Twin Lakes for the crash gate. He asked the
City of Federal Way to maintain that agreement.
Council Member Kochmar asked how does the block perimeter standards apply in this instance. Mr. Perez
replied that first it is difficult to be specific on this issue, since the city does not have an application for
Soundview Manor. However, to extend 314th without creating a connection to Dash Point Road could create
two nonconforming issues: one to the block perimeter standard and the other to the maximum cul-de-sac length.
Council Member Faison commented that it is important to have policies in place and the ones we have are
good. However, they should not be applied blindly. Projects should be considered on a case-by-case basis and
what is best for the city and the neighborhood considered.
Council Member Faison commented that there is a project planned for the intersection at 2151 and 356th to deal
with the traffic problems, In regards to development and not caring about the trees, through the comprehensive
plan, the city is trying to maintain its neighborhood character and concentrate growth in the downtown area. As
long as a developer meets the code, it is not up to the city to tell them they cannot develop their property.
Council Member McColgan commented that the City Council must look at the city as a whole. The city is
mandated by the Growth Management Act to have a certain amount of housing growth. The city is researching
a tree retention plan, but that would mean more of a cost for developers, who most likely will pass that extra
cost on to the buyer.
Council Member Burbidge commented that the city has established policies and this discussion has uncovered
some challenges to those policies. Many of the challenges are due to decisions made before the city incorporated.
Chairman Dovey asked if the staff has held any discussions about opening the gate at Bayview Estates. Mr.
Roe replied no discussions have been held by staff on this issue. This is not an issue that has been raised by
staff. Currently, the city does not have an application for development in the area and staff has had no reason to
discuss this issue. The opening of the gate is a concern raised by those living in the neighborhood,
Chairman Dovey commented that he asked that this issue be placed on the agenda so that the Committee could
gain understanding of the policies and give staff guidance. Mr. Roe commented that the general policy does
make sense. Staff may need guidance on where it is most important to implement these policies. Mr. Perez
commented that another area of guidance is how much traffic is acceptable on a particular street. Is there an
acceptable range on the ideal number of lots on a cul-de-sac?
Chairman Dovey asked if the fire department has been included in discussions of the issue. Mr. Perez replied
that the fire department is asked to review proposed developments. In addition, he has discussed this issue with
them and the fire department responded that since they include areas outside of the city, they follow King
County policy. Chairman Dovey asked that the fire department be keep appraised of this issue.

Land Use/Transportation Committee Page 4 September II, 2006
Council Member Faison commented that it is important to emphasis connectivity closer to the downtown and
not so much in outlying areas.
Council Member Kochmar commented that the city has a system of streets build on poor previous policies, The
city must take into account what exists when looking at connectivity, rather than insist on following a policy.
In addition, she suggested that topography be taken into account.
Public Testimony
George Adams. He asked Mr. Perez if he had measured the street, and if so, from where to where. Mr.
Perez commented that he had measured the street and the measurement was from gutter line to gutter
line. Mr. Adams then commented he had spoken to another engineer who had measured the street from
asphalt to asphalt. Mr. Perez replied that measurements for asphalt overlays are to a different
standard (namely asphalt to asphalt). Mr. Adams then stated that while the street meets code, it barely
meets the code width and this should be taken into account when making decisions regarding the street.
Ann Ransome, 314111 Street. She commented that soon after the city incorporated an application was
made to develop condominiums in this area, At that time, the City Council the development should be
denied because of the steepness of the road. Is the city changing their decision?
Chairman Dovey commented that the current City Council makes it decisions on current developments based
on the current city code and comprehensive plan. Because of this, a current City Council decision on a current
development could be different than a previous City Council decision on a previous development.

III. HISTORY AND BACKGROUND
The Tuscany Woods Subdivision is a proposed subdivision of22 single-family lots on a 6.32-acre
site (Exhibit B - Final Plat Map). The Tuscany Subdivision Preliminary Plat (Exhibit C -
Preliminary Plat Map) was granted approval by the Federal Way City Council on October 16,2001,
per Resolution 01-348 (Exhibit D - Preliminary Plat Resolution).
Zoning for the 6.32-acre site is RS 9.6, with a minimum lot size of9,600 square feet. Lot sizes on
the final plat range from 9,604 square feet to 13,660 square feet, with the average size being
approximately 10,311 square feet.
The developer applied for final plat approval on March 31, 2006. Improvements installed under
Engineering Application Number 01-1 03235-00-EN are now substantially complete or bonded. The
final plat application was determined complete on August 28,2006. Pursuant to RCW 58.17.110 and
FWCC Section 20-136, the City Council is charged with determining whether: 1) the proposed final
plat conforms to all terms of the preliminary plat approval; 2) if the subdivision meets the
requirements of all applicable state laws and local ordinances that were in effect at the time of
preliminary plat approval; 3) if all taxes and assessments owing on the property have been paid; and
4) if all required improvements have been made or sufficient security has been accepted by the City.
City of Federal Way staff has reviewed the Tuscany Woods final plat application for compliance
with preliminary plat conditions and all applicable codes and policies. All applicable codes, policies,
and plat conditions have been met. A proposed resolution ofthe City of Federal Way, Washington,
to approve the Tuscany Woods final plat is enclosed (Exhibit E - Draft Resolution of Final Plat
Approval).
IV. COMPLIANCE WITH PRELIMINARY PLAT CONDITIONS
The following lists conditions of preliminary plat approval in the same order referenced in Federal
Way City Council Resolution 01-348. Required improvements have been completed as allowed by
FWCC Section 20-135.
1. The applicant shall obtain the services of a qualified geotechnical engineer to review
engineering design and specifications; be present on site during all land surface modification
activities, including excavation of infiltration pond to ensure the pond bottom is established into
soils which can support infiltration rates; verify subsurface conditions; inspect and conduct
compaction tests for the roads, building lots, infiltration pond, and retaining walls; ensure
implementation of the recommendations in the geotechnical reports; and provide the City with
any additional geotechnical recommendations for plat construction and future homes on the
site, including revegetation of disturbed areas and lot drainage adjacent to the steep slope;
subject to determination by the Directors of Community Development Services and Public
Staff Evaluation for Final Plat of Tuscany Woods Doc. J.D. 37713

Works. In addition, prior to final plat approval, the infiltration system shall be required to be
operational and approved by the Public Works staff. This shall include infiltration tests
conducted by the applicant and visual inspections to demonstrate that the design infiltration rate
is being achieved and the system is functioning properly.
Staff Response: This condition has been met. Engineering plans and the stormwater system
design report, approved by the Public Works department, contained information provided by
the applicant's geotechnical engineer. The design and construction of the stormwater
infiltration and water quality ponds followed the recommendations of the geotechnical
engineer. In addition, results from post-construction infiltration testing demonstrate that the
infiltration design rate has been achieved.
2. Prior to final plat recording, the preliminary plat map shall be revised as follows:
(a) Notation that all driveways must be set back a minimum distance of 25 feet from adjacent
intersections;
Staff Response: This condition has been met. This information is contained in Note #6 of
sheet 2 of 5 of the final plat document.

File #06-1 01 597-00-SU Page 3
Staff Response: This condition has been met. Engineering plans approved by the Public
Works department included required street improvements on 4th Avenue SW. These
improvements were installed, inspected and approved, and/or financially guaranteed.
(g) Steep slope areas and associated 25-foot setbacks on proposed lots 21 and 22 established
in Native Growth Protection Easements (NGPE) with language stating that:
"NGPE conveys to the public a beneficial interest in the land within the easement, that
the interest includes the preservation of native vegetation for all purposes that benefit
the public health, safety and welfare, including control of surface water and erosion,
maintenance of slope stability, and protection of plant and animal habitat. The NGPE
imposes upon all present and future owners and occupiers of land subject to the
easement the obligation, enforceable on behalf ofthe public by the City of Federal
Way, to leave undisturbed all trees and other vegetation within the easement. The
vegetation within the easement may not be cut, pruned, covered by fill, removed, or
damaged without express permission from the City of Federal Way, which permission
must be obtained in writing from the Director of Community Development Services."
Staff Response: This condition has been met. Note #6 on sheet 2 of 5 contains this
language.
(h) Installation of a fence located 25 feet from the top of the steep slope areas associated with
lots 21 and 22 to be installed prior to final plat recording, and to be owned and maintained
in perpetuity by the Homeowners Association;
Staff Response: This condition has been met. The split rail fence along the NGPE has
been installed and inspected, and note #5 on sheet 2 of 5 indicates that the fence shall be
owned and maintained in perpetuity by the Homeowners Association.
(i) Any geotechnical restrictions and conditions for future building development, pursuant to
Condition #1, above.
Staff Response: This condition has been met. Recommendations contained in the
geotechnical engineering study prepared by Earth Consultants, Inc. were incorporated into
engineering plans. No restrictions for future building development were identified. The
applicant has provided a construction project sequencing narrative and a cross section of
the northern portion of the plat. Slab on grade home construction is proposed on sloped
lots utilizing rockeries that range from four to fourteen feet in height.
3. Prior to issuance of construction permits, a final landscape plan, prepared by a licensed
landscape architect, shall be submitted for review and approval by the Director of Community
Development Services, and shall include the following elements:

File #06-101597-00-SU Page 4
(b) Street trees on the project side of 4th Avenue SW, and both sides of 4th Place SW internal
plat street;
Staff Response: This criterion has been met. A landscape plan depicting right-of-way
landscape planter strips was approved by the Public Works department in conjunction with
review and approval of engineering plans. The street trees have been planted, inspected,
and approved.
(c) Vegetative screening of retaining walls on the Cottages West site;
Staff Response: This criterion has been met. A landscape plan depicting infiltration tract
landscaping including vegetation along the base of the retaining walls was reviewed and
approved in conjunction with engineering plans. This plan was amended and approved.
Wall screening vegetation including ivy along the walls has been planted, inspected, and
approved.
(d) Cul-de-sac landscaping;
Staff Response: This condition has been met. A landscape plan depicting cul-de-sac
landscaping was reviewed and approved in conjunction with engineering plans. The
landscaping has been planted, inspected, and approved.
(e) Revegetation of disturbed slope areas (as recommended by the geotechnical engineer
pursuant to Condition #1, above);
Staff Response: This condition has been met. The landscape plan depicting installation of
native trees and shrubs on disturbed slope areas was reviewed and approved in conjunction
with engineering plans. The landscaping has been installed and inspected. The on-going
maintenance of this slope area is identified in the Drainage and Greenbelt Easement
Agreement recorded on June 26, 2006.
(f) Significant tree identification and replacement.
Staff Response: This condition has been met. Significant trees were identified on
landscape plans submitted and approved in conjunction with engineering plans. Tree
replacement was not required for those significant trees removed from future right-of-way
and utility easement areas. Retained trees located on individual building lots will be
reviewed with each residential building permit.
4. Prior to issuance of construction permits, the applicant shall submit elevations and design
descriptions of fences, where visible from rights-of-way or pedestrian areas, showing that these
utilize natural materials and colors; and that fencing of the infiltration pond (if required by the
KCSWDM) is vinyl coated in a dark color and screened by landscaping (pursuant to an
approved landscape plan); for review and approval by the Directors of Community
Development Services and Public Works.
Staff Response: This condition has been met. Engineering plans depicted a split rail fence
separating residential lots from the NGPE. A wood fence adjacent to the street screens the
storm drainage tract from the right-of-way. Perimeter fencing of the infiltration pond was not
required under the KCSWDM as slopes were not severe. However, the applicant elected to
Staff Evaluation for Final Plat of Tuscany Woods Doc. to 37713
File #06-1 01 597-00-SU Page 5
vegetate the infiltration pond with native trees and shrubs. This landscaping has been approved,
installed, and inspected.
5. Prior to final plat recording, the applicant shall pay the alternative fee-in-lieu of providing on-
site open space, as proposed and accepted, which fee shall be calculated on the basis of 15
percent of the most recent assessed valuation or MAl appraisal, at that time, subject to approval
by the Directors of Parks and Community Development Services.
Staff Response: This condition has been met. The applicant has opted to make an open space
fee in lieu of payment pursuant to FWCC Section 20-155. Based on the assessed land value of
$231,000 (Exhibit F - 2006 King County Property Tax Assessment), and as provided by the
Federal Way Parks Director, the applicant has made a payment to the City of $34,650.00, based
on 15 percent of the assessed land value. The plat is within planning Area C of the 2000
Federal Way Parks, Open Space, and Recreation Comprehensive Plan.
6. Prior to issuance of construction permits, the applicant shall submit elevations and design
descriptions of retaining walls and rockeries for review and approval by the Directors of
Community Development and Public Works; showing that these are located outside of the
right-of-way, that these are harmonious with existing adjoining residential uses and promote
residential design themes through such means as terracing, orientation, natural material
selection, use of vegetation, and textural treatment.
Staff Response: This condition has been generally met. Engineering plans approved by the
City included elevations of retaining walls located above the infiltration pond. The walls were
located outside of rights-of-way and are not visible from on-site properties. While the steep
slope precluded terracing, landscape plans depicted vegetation planted on and adjacent to the
walls to soften and screen the concrete structures. As depicted on the cross section of the
northern portion of the plat, rock walls ranging from four to fourteen feet in height are proposed
on individual building lots to provide building pads. As this condition also applies to these
retaining features, the final plat shall reflect this condition, which shall be reviewed during
building permit review.
v. SEPA
A Mitigated Determination of Non significance (MDNS) was issued on June 23,2001, as provided
under the State Environmental Policy Act (SEP A). The following conditions of approval were
identified:
1. As required by the Public Works Director, the applicant shall either construct the
Traffic Improvement Program (TIP) projects at South 356th Street/15t Avenue South-
SR 99 ($7,205,000), prior to final plat approval, or, as may be allowed by the Public
Works Director, voluntarily pay $50,300.00 toward construction of this TIP project
prior to the final plat approval.
Staff Response: This condition has been met. As provided under the condition, the
applicant has made a payment to the City in the amount of $50,300.00 toward
construction of the TIP project.
2. If, for any reason, the storm drainage facility required for this plat is not constructed
and operational under the Cottages West plat, the applicant shall construct the approved
Staff Evaluation for Final Plat of Tuscany Woods Doc. LD. 37713
File #06-10] 597-00-SU Page 6
off-site storm drainage facility in conjunction with Tuscany preliminary plat
construction. The storm drainage facility shall be constructed by the applicant per
approved plans, inspected, and approved by the City before final plat approval can be
granted.
Staff Response: This condition has been met. The storm drainage facility was constructed in
conjunction with Tuscany preliminary plat construction. The storm drainage facility has been
inspected and approved by the City's Public Works Department.
VI. DECISIONAL CRITERIA
Pursuant to FWCC Section 20-136, if the City Council finds that the following criteria have been
met, the City Council may approve the final plat for recording:
1. The final plat is in substantial conformance to the preliminary plat.
Staff Response: This criterion has been met, as the Tuscany Woods final plat is representative
of the preliminary plat and the conditions of preliminary plat have been met or financially
guaranteed.
2. The final plat is in conformity with applicable zoning ordinances or other land use controls.
Staff Response: This criterion has been met. The plat meets the zoning standards for the RS
9.6 zoning district and provides single-family dwelling unit lots that range from 9,604 square
feet to 13,660 square feet in size. As provided for in FWCC Section 20-135(b), performance
and maintenance bonds are in place for the entire plat including frontage improvements, streets,
and all infrastructure.
3. That all conditions of the Hearing Examiner and/or City Council have been satisfied.
Staff Response: This criterion has been met as noted in the staff comments above. All plat
conditions have been met and/or are financially guaranteed to be completed within two years of
final plat approval. All life safety improvements have been completed.
4. That the public use and interest shall be served by the establishment of the subdivision and
dedication by determining if appropriate provisions are made for, but not limited to, the public
health, safety, general welfare, open space, drainage ways, streets and roads, alleys, other
public ways, transit stops, potable water supplies, sanitary wastes, parks and recreation,
playgrounds, and schools and school grounds, and shall consider all other relevant facts,
including sidewalks and other planning features that assure safe walking conditions for students
who only walk to and from school.
Staff Response: This criterion has been met. The final plat is consistent with applicable zoning
and subdivision regulations, and ensures the public health, safety, and welfare is protected. The
plat infrastructure has been installed and adequately financially guaranteed as discussed above,
including: safe walking routes of travel to schools and school bus stops, open space provided via
fee-in-lieu of payment, drainage systems and water and sewer installed, and street
improvements.
5. That all required improvements have been made and maintenance bonds or other security for
such improvements have been submitted and accepted.

Staff Response: This criterion has been met. All road, pedestrian pathway, and storm drainage
improvements have been constructed and/or financially guaranteed. In addition, all water and
sewer lines have been installed and approved by Lakehaven Utility District as identified in the
August 24, 2006, letter of substantial completion from Lakehaven Utility District.
6. That all taxes and assessments owing on the property being subdivided have been paid.
Staff Response: Prior to being recorded, the plat is reviewed by the King County Department
of Assessments to ensure that all taxes and assessments have been paid.
VII. CONCLUSION
Based on site visits, review of the final plat maps, construction drawings, and the project file, staff
has determined that the application for Tuscany Woods final plat approval meets all platting
requirements ofRCW 58.17.110 and Section 20-136 of the Federal Way City Code. Plat
infrastructure improvements have been substantially completed and/or financially secured to
guarantee that the plat conditions and code requirements will be completed within two years of final
plat approval as allowed by FWCC Section 20-135. The project has been developed in conformance
with Resolution 01-348, approving the Tuscany Preliminary Plat. A recommendation of final plat
approval is therefore being forwarded to the City Council for your approval.

MEMORANDUlVI
DATE: September 18th, 2006
TO: Land Use and Transportation Committee
VIA: Neal Beets, City Manager W
FROM: Rick Perez. P.E., Ci(v Traffic Engineer M
SUBJECT: Triangle Proiect Status
BACKGROUND:
Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT), in conjunction with Federal Highways
Administration (FHW A), King County, and the cities of Federal Way and Milton, are in the process of
evaluating the preferred alternative for the environmental process. The primary objectives of the project
are to improve safety and reduce congestion in the 1-5 / SR-IS interchange and at the SR-18
(S 34Sth Street) / SR-161 (Enchanted Parkway S / 16th Avenue S) intersection.
S 356th Street Off-Ramp
At the April 18th, 2006, City Council meeting, the Council adopted staffs recommendation for
Alternative F, which provides an off-ramp to Enchanted Parkway at both S 356th Street and just north of
the 1-5 overpass. City staff proposed a modification to Alternative F by providing two-way traffic on S
356lh Street east of Enchanted Parkway in order to provide access to properties between Enchanted
Parkway and I-5. The ramp connection to S 356th Street diverts more traffic from the S 348lh Street /
Enchanted Parkway S intersection. Based on the City Council's position, WSDOT is moving forward
with Alternative F as the preferred alternative, as discussed in the attached letter.
WSDOT has conducted additional analysis on Alternative F to evaluate City staffs request to consider
two-way traffic on S 356th Street between Enchanted Parkway and 1-5, and has raised concerns regarding
the impact of providing local access to adjacent property on this segment of S 356th Street. City staff has
reviewed the analysis and concurs that queuing on this ramp would conflict with the provision of access
to adjacent property resulting in queues that would compromise the function and safety of the freeway
off-ramp in the design year, 2030. Originally it was assumed that only partial acquisition would be
necessary for construction of the S 356th Street ramp; however, not providing access would require
WSDOT to completely acquire these properties, totaling approximately 4.4 acres of BC-zoned land,
Although WSDOT would be likely to surplus the remaining property, the development of these properties
would depend on the land value exceeding the cost of developing access through adjacent parcels. It is
unknown if and when this might occur.
New Cost Estimate / Impact on Construction Phasing
Since the April 18th, City Council meeting, WSDOT has developed new cost estimates for the project.
Depending on the assumptions for inflation of highway construction costs, the estimate ranges from $194
million to $234 million. Current funding is $114 million. WSDOT is evaluating alternatives for how the
project could be phased to maximize the safety and capacity benefits within the currently available
funding.

Construction Phasing Scenario I would construct the westbound-to-southbound flyover and the
southbound off-ramp to Enchanted Parkway and S 3561h Street. Construction Phasing Scenario 2 would
build the eastbound-to-northbound flyover ramp instead of the Enchanted Parkway off-ramp, but would
allow for nght-of-way acquisition for the otT-ramp to S 356th Street.
Construction Phasing Scenario 1 alleviates the worst safety and capacity issue by constructing the
westbound to-southbound tlyover and address safety and capacity issues at the S 348u1 Street / Enchanted
Parkway S intersection. Construction of the eastbound-to-northbound flyover ramp would be dependent
on RTID funding or some other future funding package.
Construction Phasing Scenario 2 would eliminate all freeway mainline weaving sections between loop
ramps and is estimated to cost $8.6 million less, but would not divert traffic around the S 348th Street /
Enchanted Parkway intersection. Thus, full construction of the Enchanted Parkway off-ramp including S
356th Street would be dependent on RTID funding or some other future funding package.
In either case, if RTID funding is not approved for this project, it is unknown when the remaining project
elements would be funded. WSDOT recommends Construction Phasing Scenario 2 for its resolution of
freeway safety and capacity issues. Given the City's contribution to project in securing funding, its
impact on congestion and safety and meeting approved Comprehensive Plan goals, City staff recommends
Construction Phasing Scenario 1. ~

Mr. Cary Roe
Public Works Director
33325-8th Ave. S
P.O. Box 9718
Federal Way, WA. 98063-9718
Dear Mr. Roe,
Thank you for your message of July 17th 2006, in which you request additional
information on the current design of the S. 356th Street connection of the I-5/SR l611SR
18 Triangle Improvements project. In the voicemail message you mentioned that the City
of Federal Way would like for WSDOT to send written documentation of the design on
the S. 356th Street connection.
As you know, in April, 2006, city staff and WSDOT staff discussed possible connections
between the collector-distributor and SR 161 with the city council's land use committee
and several weeks later with the full council. There was consensual support from the
council for connections at both S. 356th Street and S. 359th Street. Furthermore, if safe
operations could be provided at S.356th Street, the city council preferred to have this
connection function as a "city street".
As a response to the city's request, we instructed the project team to develop several
detailed designs for the S. 356th Street connection. In a subsequent meeting held on April
27th with city staff (Mr. Rick Perez), and various WSDOT staff, one of these designs was
modified to meet the guidelines set forth in WSDOT's Design Manual for transitioning
highway connections between interstate limited access facilities and city streets. This
design allowed access to parcels along S. 356th Street with minimal restrictions.
WSDOT then directed the project consultant to analyze this connection to verify that it
would not affect the safety or traffic operations of the collector distributor or the freeway
mainline. The consultant has analyzed this connection with several levels of
development on the properties just north of S. 356th Street. This analysis has been
provided to Mr. Perez.
Using industry standard trip generation methodology and city zoning information for this
area, the consultant developed three potential PM peak hour traffic volume profiles for
the "city street" configuration of the ramp. Peak hour volumes of 447,224 and 153
vehicles were analyzed accessing the properties adjacent to S. 356th; these volumes are in
addition to the vehicles coming from the collector-distributor. Under all three scenarios,
traffic backed up on the collector-distributor, resulting in an unsafe operation of the
collector-distributor. Based on these results, WSDOT will need to eliminate access to
four parcels along the north side of S. 356th Street and to two existing businesses on the
south side by placing full limited access on the S. 356th Street ramp through its
intersection with SR 161. The only exception would be allowing an access break to the
Chevron gas station, allowing right-in, right-out access as long as the property use
remained as it currently exists. I have attached a drawing showing the proposed design
with limited access.
Finalizing the connection(s) between the collector-distributor and SR 161 is the last
major decision that remains unresolved. At this time we cannot move forward with
completing the environmental document and Interchange Justification Report until this
issue is resolved. Since the results of the operational analysis indicate that access to
adjacent parcels from the S. 356th Street would not be allowable, and since this
understanding may alter the city's position on the need for the S. 356th Street ramp
connection, it is imperative that we receive written confirmation from the city on its
support ofthis scenario. In order to keep the project on schedule, we respectfully request
that that you forward the city's response by 15 August 2006. If you require additional
information, please feel free to contact me.
Finally, I thank you, your staff, the Mayor's office and city council for your strong
support of the Triangle project and we look forward to continuing collaboration on this
project.
Respectfull y,
t8~~
