PUBLIC COMMENT
There was no public comment on any item not included in the agenda.
BUSINESS ITEMS
A. Public Requests for Zoning Code Changes - Six requests from citizens to change existing zoning regulations
were received by staff. Four of those are to allow more uses in the Neighborhood Business zone: churches,
batting cages, higher density multi-family units, and health clubs. The remaining two requests are for changes to
the Business Park zone to allow more flexibility of office uses. The Committee m/s/c recommendation to the City
Council at its June 4, 2002, meeting to set a public hearing for June 17, 2002, to consider moving the requests
forward for more discussion and review.
Possible Expansion of Federal Way Potential Annexation Area (PAA) - At the request of Eric Faison, Land
Use/Transportation Committee Chair, staff conducted preliminary research regarding the expansion of the existing
Federal Way PAA boundary to include three separate areas located in unincorporated King and Pierce Counties.
Officials of both Ki.ng and Pierce County have indicated interest in formal discussions on such proposals. To study
the areas under consideration would increase the current PAA Study contract budget of ,$240,000 by 42% and
would add approximately four to five months to the current project schedule. The Committee suggested that staff
add this project to the 2003-2004 budget process as a new initiative.
Interlocal Agreement for Storage Space - The City is in need of additional space for the installation of a 6000-
gallon liquid storage tank that would hold a liquid de-icing agent for City snow and ice removal operations. King
County has agreed to house the storage tank at the King County Star Lake Maintenance Facility where the County
stores its own liquid de-icing storage tank. The Committee m/s/c recommendation of approval to the City Council at
its June 4, 2002, meeting, of an Interlocal Agreement to establish the rights and responsibilities of the City and the
County.
FUTURE MEETINGS
The next meeting will be June 3, 2002.

Amendments to Federal Way City Code (FWCC) relating to single family
residential non-conforming structures (FWCC 22-334) and single family
residential nonconforming residential uses (FWCC 22-338).
il.
Background
In 1998, Mr. Roger Hyppa submitted two letters to the City Council requesting a Code
amendment which would allow the expansion of a residential use in a zone where residential
uses are currently not allowed (attached as Exhibit A). As part of the Year 2001 Planning
Commission work program, Staff provided analysis outlining arguments for and against allowing
the expansion of a non-conforming residential use. Based on the Planning Commission's
direction, staff prepared a Code amendment for the Planning Commission's review which would
allow the expansion of a non-conforming single family residential use beyond what is currently
allowed by the Code. Additionally, based on discussions with staffand inquiries from members
of the public, staffalso prepared a Code amendment related to nonconforming residential
structures for the Planning Commission's review and recommendation.
Proposal
The Planning Commission conducted a public hearing and deliberated on May 15, 2002. There
were two proposed Code amend~nents before the Planning Commission. One is related to
nonconforming single family residential structures, under FWCC 22-334. The second proposed
Code amendment is related to nonconfbrming single family residential rises, under FWCC 22-
338. Staff recommended to the Planning Commission that the proposed Code amendment related
to nonconforming structures be adopted. Staff recommended that the proposed Code amendment
related to nonconforming uses not be adopted. The staff report to the Planning Commission is
included as Exhibit B.
The proposal before the Planning Commission related to nonconforming single family residential
structures would allow the expansion of a non-conforming single family residential structure
located in a zoning district which allows single family residential uses, so long as the extent of
the existing nonconformity is in no way expanded. The proposed code amendment would clarify
and expand existing Code provisions contained in FWCC 22-334. The proposed Code
amendment is outlined in Section III. A proposed Ordinance adopting the Code amendment is
attached as Exhibit C.
The proposal before the Planning Commission related to nonconforming single family residential
uses would allow the expansion of a non-conforming single family residential use beyond what is
currently provided for under section 22-338. A nonconforming single family use is one which is
located in a zoning district which does not allow single family residential uses. Under the
proposed Code amendment, an existing nonconforming residential use could be increased by
expanding and/or renovating the existing structure and/or the addition of other improvements on
tile site. Any expansion, addition, or improvement would be required to meet the development
standards such as lot coverage and required yards of the RS 7.2 single family zoning designation.
The proposed code amendment would expand existing Code provisions contained in FWCC 22-
338. The proposed Code amendment is outlined in Section llI. A proposed Ordinance adopting
the Code amendment is attached as Exhibit D. A proposed Resolution to not adopt the Code
amendment is attached as Exhibit D. Changes to the existing Code language are shown as
str4k-eom (deletions) and double-underline (proposed additions).
III. Planning Commission/Staff Recommendation
a. Nonconforming Structures
The Planning Commission recommends adoption of the proposed text amendment to FWCC 22-
334 (nonconforming structures) as presented by staff. Staff's recommendation to the Planning
Co~nmission was to adopt the provision related to non conforming residential structures.
Changes to the existing Code language are shown as s ' ~mk-eom (deletions) and double-underline
(proposed additions):
22-334 Nonconforming development.
If any aspect, structure, improvement or development does not conform to the development
regulations prescribed in this chapter, that aspect, structure, improvement or development must
be brought into conformance or otherwise improved as set forth below.
(1) Change of use - Single-tenant site. If any applicant proposes a change of use on property
used or occupied by a single tenant or use, the applicant shall meet those provisions determined
by the director to be reasonably related and applicable to tile change of use. These provisions
shall apply to tile entire site.
(2) Change of use - Multi-tenant site. If an applicant proposes a change of use on only a portion
of property occupied by multiple tenants or uses, the applicant shall meet those provisions
detcrmined by the director to be reasonably related and applicable to tile change of use. These
provisions shall apply only to that geographic portion of the site related to the use or tenant space
on which the change is proposed.
(3) Increase in gross floor area. If an applicant proposes to increase the gross floor area of any
use on the subject property in any one of the following ways, the applicant shall comply with the
development regulations in effect at the time of the proposal, as specified below:
If expansion of gross floor area of an existing building occurs either through addition of
new floors within the structure or enlargement of the existing building footprint, the
applicant shall comply with all development regulations in effect at the time the
expansion is proposed. If the property on which the expansion is proposed is occupied by
multiple tenants or uses, the applicant shall comply with those development regulations
applicable to the geographic portion of the site on which the expansion is proposed; or
bo
If a new and separate structure is being constructed on an already developed site, the
applicant shall comply with all development regulations applicable to the geographic
portion of the site on which the new structure and any related improvements are to be
constructed; or
If the increase in gross floor area involves an existing single family residential dwelling,
the applicant shall comply with the development regulations in effect at the time of the
proposal. For single family residences, existing nonconformities may remain and
continue so long as the existing nonconformities are not being increased or expanded in.
any way. New construction or renovation which involves the increase in gross floor area
of a nonconforming single family structure is subject to all applicable requirements of
the Federal Way Ci.ty Code including but not limited to provisions related to
Environmentally Sensitive Areas (FWCC Art. XIV), Off-street Parking (FWCC Art.
XV), Improvements (FWCC Art. XVI), and Landscaping (FWCC Art. XVII).
b. Nonconforming Uses
The Planning Commission recommends adoption of the proposed text amendment to FWCC 22-
338 (nonconforming uses) as presented by staff. Note that staff did not recommend adoption of
the provision related to non-conforming single family uses. Changes to the existing Code
language are shown as sU4keout (deletions) and double-underline (proposed additions):
22-338 Special provisions for residential uses
If the subject property contains a residential use that became nonconforming as to use or density
as a result of the adoption of this chapter, the following regulations apply:

the structure may be rebuilt; provided, that the number of dwelling units and the gross floor area
in and on the subject property may not be increased from that which existed immediately prior to
the damage or destruction and any other nonconformity of or on the subject property may not in
any way be increased. The provisions of this subsection are only available if the applicant applies
for a building permit within 12 months after the sudden damage or destruction and construction
is commenced and completed under that building permit.
(2) Other than as specified in subsection (1) of this section, the nonconforming use or density

Dear MCr. Watkins,
I was raised on a piece of property in Federal Way located
at 1816 S. 340th. We 'have owned this residence for 48
years. My mother recently passed away, and upon listing
the property for sale, I learned that it had been rezoned
Business Park. This was done without any formal
notification to any of the 6 residences on this road. I
would like to address the committee at their next meeting
on Monday, June 1, at 5:30 P.M.
At this time I would request a code 'admentment so that I
could construct a garage. I would take no more than 5
minutes of the committee's time to explain the unique
situation .of this property.
I am hoping you will offer me this opportunity.
Sincerely,
Roger Hyppa

Dear Mr. Watkins,
The property at 1816 South 340th was purchased in 1950 by
my parents. It has been our residence for 48 years.
Upon listing the residence for sale, I was informed by the
real estate agent that it was zoned (B.P.) Business Park.
I have since learned that no formal notification of change
in zoning was given to any of the residents on this street.
have been informed by the City of Federal Way staff that
this was legal. However, if legal, I would say it was quite
unethical. It was stated it would have been too much of a
task to notify all residents of such a change.' There are 5
houses on this street.
The current value**of this property as B.P. is approxi-
mately $100,000. However, it is virtually impossible to find
someone interested in this small of a piece of property for
B.P. use.
The current value** of the property as a single family
residence is approximately $135,00 to $140,00.
As you can see, the value of this property is much greater
as a home than as B.P. at this time. There is vacant B.P.
property to the south of 340th street that has been sitting
vacant for many years.

The nonconformance (Sec. 22-3404) prohbition on
increasing nonconformance which prohibits adding on the
residence or adding a garage seems totally too restrictive.
Because of these restrictions, I have lost two potential sales
of this home. In essence, the city. of Federal Way has
d(~vahl(~d the property by $40,000. Further, you have
placed me on a strangle hold. I am unable to sell because
the city has taken away my right to use this property as a
residence until it is ready to be developed as B.P.
To remedy this situation, I request that Sec. 22-3404 and
all relating sections prohibiting the enlargement and
expansion of this single family residence be waived or
grandfathered, so that its use may continue until such time
that it is feasible to transfer into B.P. properW.

STAFF REPORT TO THE PLANNING COMMISSION
FEDERAL WAY CITY CODE (FWCC) AMENDMENTS:
Expansion of Nonconforming Residential Uses
and
Expansion of Nonconforming Residential Structures
Planning Commission Meeting of May 15, 2002
I. INTRODUCTION
The Planning Commission met on June 20 and July 18,2001 to discuss a Code amendment
which would allow existing nonconforming single family residential uses to expand.
However, while public testimony was taken, a public hearing on the proposed Code
amendment was not held. Based on the Planning Commission's discussions, staff has
reviewed the existing Code provisions related to residential nonconformities and made
several clarifying changes/additions to the previous proposed Code amendment, Federal
Way City Code (FWCC) Section 22-338. The text of the proposed Code amendment is
attached as Exhibit A.
Based on other nonproject-specific questions from members of the public and City Staff;
provisions related to nonconforming single family structures were also reviewed. Staff
has prepared an addition to FWCC 22-334 to provide a limited exemption to allow
additions to existing nonconfbrming single family residential structures (also attached as
Exhibit A). To aid in your review, background information on the specific Code
amendments is provided below, divided into sections related to nonconforming residential
uses and nonconforming residential structures.
Please keep in mind that nonconforming is a descriptive term in the planning context and
does not necessarily have a negative connotation. It merely refers to a use or structure
which was legally created, but due to a change in zoning, has becolne inconsistent with the
current code provisions applicable to the property and/or zone in which the property is
located.
!I. NONCONFORMING SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENTIAL USES
BACKGROUND
Mr. Hyppa's Request: In 1998, Mr. Hyppa submitted a letter to the City Council
requesting a code amendment that would allow the expansion of a residential use in
a zone where residential uses are currently not allowed. Specifically, Mr. Hyppa
desires to add a stand-alone garage to an existing residence in a Business Park (BP)
zone. MI'. Hyppa owns property located east of Pacific Highway South, between
South 336th and South 344th Streets, in a Business Park (BP) zone. Single-family or
multi-family residential uses are not currently allowed in the BP zone. There are a
number of single-family residences in this area that are a vestige of past
development and King County's zoning.
Adoption of Zoning Code: Upon incorporation of the City of Federal Way, the
City adopted its own zoning regulations and designation for all properties within
the City. During the months of January and February of 1990, prior to the adoption
of the zoning code, the City held numerous public meetings to solicit public input
on the proposed changes to the land use code and zoning map. The issue of
nonconforming uses was specifically contemplated at that time, and a special
provision for residential uses was enacted. The special provision for residential
uses has been reviewed four times, since its adoption in 1990. Each time, a public
hearing was held, in addition to review by the Planning Commission and City
Council. Each time, the decision by the Council was to leave the provision in
substantially the same form as it exists today. In 1991, maintenance work was
exempted from the calculation of improvements that would trigger conformance,
and in 1997, a 90-day abandonment provision and 180-day cessation of activity
provision was deleted from the section.
.Special Provisions for Residential Uses: FWCC, Section 22-338 provides as
follows:
If the subject property contains a residential use that became
nonconforming as to use or density as a result of the adoption of this
chapter, the following regulations apply:
If the improvements on the subject property are damaged or destroyed
by any sudden cause, the structure may be rebuilt; provided, that the
number of dwelling units and the gross floor area in and on the subject
property may not be increased from that which existed immediately
prior to the damage or destruction, and any other nonconformity of or
on the subject property may not in any way be increased. The provisions
of this subsection are only available if the applicant applies for a
building permit within 12 months after the sudden damage or
destruction, and construction is commenced and completed under that
building permit.
(2)
Other than as specified in Subsection (1) of this section, the
nonconfomfing use or density must be corrected if the applicant is
making changes, alterations or doing other work, other than normal
maintenance, in any 12-month period to any structure on the subject
property and fair market value of these changes, alterations or other
work exceeds 50 percent of the assessed or appraised value of that
structure. The applicant may provide an appraisal of the improvement
that has been damaged. The appraisal must be fi'om a source that is

acceptable to the City. The Community Development Director may
require the applicant to provide an appraisal from a source acceptable to
the City, if the assessed valuation appears to be inappropriate. If an
appraisal is provided by the applicant or required by the City, the larger
of the two amounts shall be used.
B. ANAL YSIS
Staff is providing the following analysis outlining arguments for and against
allowing additional exceptions to the Nonconformance chapter of the Zoning Code,
to allow for additional expansion of nonconforming residential uses in non-
residential zones.
Staff has also incorporated several additions to the proposed amendment to Sec 22-
338 related to nonconforming residential uses. While staff does not support the
overall amendment to Sec 22-338, staff made the addition to 22-338(2) to
distinguish between nonconforming single family and nonconforming multi-family
uses and to ensure the designation of a multi-family use is consistent with the Code
definition. The purpose of the proposed addition 22-338(2) is to make clear that
any change in an existing nonconforming single family use is subject to all
applicable requirements of the Code including provisions related to
Environmentally Sensitive Areas, parking, improvements, and landscaping.
A nonconforming use is a use which lawfully existed prior to the enactment of a
zoning ordinance, and which is maintained after the effective date of the ordinance,
although it does not comply with the zoning restrictions applicable to the district in
which it is situated. The right to continue a nonconforming use despite a zoning
ordinance that prohibits such a use in the area is sometimes referred to as a
"protected" or "vested" right. This right, however, refers only to the right not to
have the use immediately terminated in the face of a zoning ordinance that
prohibits the use. University Place v. McGuire, 102 Wn. App. 658, 9 P.3d 918
(2000), citing Rhod-A-Zalea & 33th, Inc. v. Snohomish Co~mty, 136 Wn.2d 1, 6, 959
P.2d 1024 (1998).
The prevailing public policy is to severely limit if not abolish noncontbrming uses.
Anderson v. Island Cozm0~, 81 Wn.2d 312, 501 P.2d 594 (1972); Bartz v. Board ~/'
Adjustment, 80 Wn. 2d 209, 492 P.2d1374 (1972); Colema~ v. Walla I~'~dla, 44
Wn.2d 296,266 P.2d 1034 (1954). Nonconforming uses are unifomaly disfavored
and the Washington courts have repeatedly acknowledged the desirability of
eliminating such uses. Rhod-A-Zalea & 35lh, Inc. v. Snohomish CounO,. at 1028.
citing Ackerley Comm~nicalions, Inc. v. CiO: qf Seatlle, 92 Wn.2d 905. 920,602
P.2d 1177 (1979).
The ultimate purpose of zoning ordinances is to confine certain classes of buildings
and uses to certain localities. The continued existence of those that are
nol~conforming is inconsistent with that object. Rhod-A-Zalea & 35th, Inc. v.
Iqanning Commission .qtafl' I),cport
Snohomish County, at 1027, citing State ex rel. Miller v. Cain, 40 Wn. 2d 216, 221,
242 P.2d 505 (1952). The court in Anderson v. Island County held:
...it is contemplated that conditions should be reduced to conformity as
completely and as speedily as possible with due regard to the special
interest of those concerned and that where suppression is not feasible
without working substantial injustice, there shall be accomplished the
greatest possible amelioration of the offending use which justice
permits...The generally accepted method of eliminating nonconforming
uses is to prevent any increase in the nonconformity and, when changes in
the premises are contemplated...to compel a lessening or complete
suppression of the nonconformity.
The theory of the zoning ordinance is that the nonconforming use is detrimental to
public interests such as health, safety, or welfare. Commentators agree that
nonconforming uses limit the effectiveness of land-use-controls, imperil the
success of community plans and injure property values. Id. at 1028, citing 1 R.
Anderson, American Law of Zoning Sec. 6.02 and R. Settle, Washington Land Use
Sec. 2.7 (d). Although found to be detrimental to important public interests,
nonconforming uses are allowed to continue based on the belief that it would be
unfair to require an immediate cessation of a nonconforming use. However, "[tit
was not and is not contemplated that preexisting nonconforming uses are to be
perpetual." Rhod-A-Zalea & 35t~', Inc. v. Snohomish CounO~, at 1028, citing State
ex. Rel. Miller v. Cain, at 505. Therefore, while status as a nonconforming use
generally grants the right to continue the existing use, it does not grant the right to
significantly change, alter, extend, or enlarge the existing use. Id. at 1027.
In summary, Washington courts permit the "intensification" of nonconforming
uses, but not the "enlargement." This requires that the character of the use remain
unchanged, substantially the same facilities be used, and the use not differ in kind
fi'om tile nonconforming use. Keller v. City of Bellingham, 92 Wn.2d 726, 600
P.2d 1276 (1979); Meridian Minerals v. King County, 61 Wn. App. 195, 810 P.2d
31(1991).
1. Pros:
It is generally accepted that a nonconforming use should be allowed to
continue lbr some period alter enactlnent of tile ordinance making the use
noncontbrming to prevent a substantial injustice. Additionally, there may
be situations in which it is appropriate to encourage the stability and
expansion of noncontbrming residential uses, such as in all area in
transition. For example, ill all area where industrial or heavy commercial
uses are no longer viable due to a lack of appropriate infrastructure,
nonconforming residential uses may be allowed to enlarge or expand and
new residences develop as a transition to a more mixed neighborhood with
residential uses and lighter commercial and retail uses takes place. Such a
I'lanning Commissio.~ ~,t~tl/' aq3Olll
Page 4
l]xpansion of Nonconlbrmin~~ '~
scenario, however, would typically be accomplished by a zoning
amendment to legalize the nonconforming residential uses and create
incentives for lighter commercial, retail or mixed uses.
2. COILS?
First, contrary to the above, Mr. Hyppa's nonconforming use is not being
threatened with immediate termination. It has been nonconforming for over
10 years and, as long as the use is continued without enlargement, it may
continue as a nonconforming use.
Second, contrary to the above, where it was noted that allowing an
expansion of nonconforming residential uses can sometimes provide a
transition to less intensive uses, the exact opposite is the case here. In this
type of case, where the residential use is a vestige of past zoning and
development patterns, and the current zoning is directed to more intensive
industrial uses, the general policy is to prohibit nonconforming uses fi'om
expanding so as to facilitate light industrial development.
Third, the prevailing public policy is to severely limit, if not abolish,
nonconforming uses. Nonconforming uses limit the effectiveness of land-
use-controls, imperil the success of community plans and injure property
values.
Fourth, the uses allowed in the BP zone are vehicle intensive and noisy,
potentially operating 24-hours per day. Uses allowed in the BP zone
include stone cutting, industrial laundry facilities, manufacturing, research
and development facilities, hazardous waste storage and treatmeut, chemical
manufacturing, warehouse, and wholesale distribution. These uses generate
impacts that are generally incompatible with single-farnily residences.
Allowing a single family use to extend it's life by expansion increases the
possibility of conflicts.
Fifth, the City has a finite supply of land available for more intensive heavy
commercial uses. Allowing nonconforming residential uses to enlarge or
expand in these areas reduces the likelihood that the properties will become
available for redevelopment by a more intensive use as intended by the
Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Code.
Sixth, FWCC, Section 22-338 currently contains a special provision for
residential uses. The existing code allows normal maintenance, alterations,
or other work on the structure, so long as the fair market value of the
proposed chauge does not exceed 50 percent of the assessed or appraised
value of the existing structure. Thus, Mr. Hyppa could make changes and/or
add on to the existing structure, so long as the change or addition cont'onns
to the development standards tbr the underlying zone, such as setbacks and
Planning Commission Slal'l' Rcporl
Page 5
height, and the change or addition does not exceed 50 percent of the
assessed or appraised value of the structure. The existing code provisions
would allow construction of an attached garage, but not allow a new
detached garage to be constructed.
C. DECISIONAL CRITERIA
FWCC Section 22-528 provides criteria for zoning text amendments. The
following section analyzes the compliance of the proposed zoning text amendments
with the criteria provided by FWCC Section 22-528.
The City may amend the text of the FWCC only if it finds that:
1. The proposed amendment is consistent with the applicable provisions of
the comprehensive plan;
The proposed FWCC text amendment related to nonconforming residential uses is
not consistent with the Comprehensive Plan, because allowing the additional
expansion of nonconforming residential uses beyond what is currently allowed by
the Code is contrary to the following Comprehensive Plan goals and policies:
L UP29 Provide for a mixture of commercial and residential uses in
commercial areas, except Business Park and Qffice.
L UG5 Develop a quality business park area that supports
surrounding commercial areas.
LUP36
Develop business parks which fit into their surroundings by
grouping similar industries in order to reduce or eliminate
land use conflicts, allow sharing of public facilities and
services, and improve traffic.flow and sqfety.
2. The proposed amendment bears a substantial relationship to public health,
safety, or welfare; and
The proposed FWCC text amendments lack any substantial relationship, and
negatively affect the public health, safety, and welfare. Nonconforming residential
uses are currently provided a special exception under the current Code to make
alterations, renovations or changes, within certain parameters. This expansion is
limited to encourage the re-development of the area to a more intensive use as
allowed by the Code. Any further expansion of these structures increases the
potential for conflict between a residential use (not currently allowed) and a inore
intensive industrial, COlnmercial or office use (which is allowed). The City has
designated the BP zone for intensive commercial uses, which potentially generate
noise, odors, light and traffic impacts, in an area with easy access to Interstate 5,
the m~jor transportation con'idor. Encouraging the further enhancement and
EXHIBIT,
Phmning Commission Staff Report
entrenchment of nonconforming residential uses in the BP zone will preclude the
siting and or expansion of business, commercial or office development, and will
not further the public health, safety, and welfare.
3. The proposed amendment is in the best interest of the residents of the city.
The proposed FWCC text amendments related to nonconforming residential uses
are not in the best interest of the residents of the City, because encouraging the
further enhancement and entrenchment of nonconforming residential uses in areas
designated for more intensive business, commercial or office developments will
increase conflicts between the uses and preclude the location and or expansion of
commercial developments. Business, commercial and office developments
generate tax revenues for the City and provide jobs to the City's residents. A City
needs a mixture of residential and non-residential uses to function properly.
D. RECOMMENDATION
Based on the above, staff recommends not allowing additional expansion of
nonconforming residential uses in non-residential zones beyond that already
allowed under FWCC Section, 22-338. The uses currently allowed in the BP zone
are not generally compatible with residential uses. As the remaining supply of BP
land develops, surrounding residences in the BP zone will be severely impacted.
The nonconforming residential uses within the BP zone should be encouraged to
relocate, in order to increase the supply of available BP-zoned land, and aid in the
economic development of the City to benefit all its residents. Allowing the
expansion of nonconforming residential uses would be contrary to this goal, and to
prevailing public policy.
IlL NONCONFORMING SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENTIAL STRUCTURES
A. BACKGROUND & PROPOSED CODE AMENDMENT
It is important to distinguish between uses and structures. Non conforming
structures are those structures located in a zone, containing an allowed use, where a
portion of the structure may not comply with the current development regulations.
For example, the front of the structure, when constructed, did comply with the fl'ont
setback requirement. However, due to an expansion of the right-of-way, the fi'ont
yard dimension has decreased or, due to the change in zoning fi'om King County to
the City of Federal Way, the front yard requirement has increased, the fi'ont of the
structure is now within the required front yard setback and is thus nonconforming.
Under the current Code, a property owner is precluded from expanding the gross
floor area of a nonconforming single family structure unless the nonconlbrmance is
brought into cont'ormity. FWCC Sec 22-334 requires that an ilnprovement must
comply with all development regulations ill effect at the time the expansion is
proposed (FWCC 22-334). Most jurisdictions allow additions to legal
EXHIB!T
Planning Commission Staff Report
Page7 l-~xpansion of Noncon I'onn lng l>,csidentiiF~ql~ctt~
nonconforming single family structures, so long as the extent of the existing
nonconformity is in no way expanded.
Using the example above: a property owner who's house is nonconforming as to
the front setback is precluded from adding on to the rear of the house unless the
existing nonconformity is corrected, under the current provisions of the Code. The
proposed addition to Sec. 22-334, applicable only to single family structures, would
allow an expansion of the structure, so long as the portion of the structure which is
nonconforming is in no way enlarged or expanded, and the proposed addition
complies with all provisions of the Code. The following is the proposed Code
language:
"If the increase in gross floor area involves an existing single family
residential dwelling, the applicant shall comply with the development
regulations in effect at the time of the proposal. For single family
residences, existing nonconformities may remain and continue so long as
the existing nonconformities are not being increased or expanded in any
way. New construction or renovation which involves the increase in gross
floor area of a nonconforming single family structure is subject to all
applicable requirements of the Federal Way City Code including but not
limited to provisions related to Environmentally Sensitive Areas (FWCC
Art. XIV), Off-street Parking (FWCC Art. XV), Improvements (FWCC Art.
XVI), and Landscaping (FWCC Art. XVII)."
B. ANAL YSIS
Staff is providing the following analysis outlining arguments for and against
allowing the expansion of a nonconforming single family residential structure in a
single family residential zone.
1. Pros:
It is generally accepted that a nonconforming single family residential
structure be allowed to expand so long as the extent of the nonconformity is
not expanded and so long as the expansion conforms to all applicable
provision of the code such as building setbacks/yard requirements, height,
and environmentally sensitive area regulations. Enabling a homeowner to
expand or in other ways renovate their dwelling preserves and enhances thc
character of a neighborhood. As long as the extent of the existing
nonconformity is not expanded and any proposed expansion complies with
the applicable provisions of the Code, negative impacts to the surrounding
neighbors and the neighborhood over and above general development
impacts are expected to be minimal or non existent.
l'lanning Commission Stol/' Report
Pagc 8
2. Cons:
There are those situations where, for example, a single family dwelling is
built so close to a property line that its presence intrudes on the neighboring
property regardless of the expansion being constructed consistent with the
Code. By allowing nonconforming structures to be renovated or expanded
without bring the nonconformity into compliance with the Code, the
nonconformance and any impacts associated with it are prolonged. The
underlying policy regarding nonconformities is that they should be brought
into compliance and not allowed to remain in perpetuity. However, the
Code does provide that a non-conforming structure must be brought into
conformance if"[t]he applicant is making any alteration or changes or
doing any work, other than normal maintenance or other than tenant
improvements, in any one consecutive 12-month period to an improvement
that is nonconforming and the fair market value of the alteration, change or
other work exceeds 50 percent of the assessed or appraised value of that
improvement." (FWCC 22-334(6)) Thus while a new kitchen or bedroom
addition may not trigger the 50% threshold, a more complete renovation of
a single family dwelling would require that the nonconformance be brought
into compliance with the Code.
C. DECISIONAL CRITERIA
FWCC Section 22-528 provides criteria for zoning text amendments. The
following section analyzes the compliance of the proposed zoning text amendments
with the criteria provided by FWCC Section 22-528.
The City may amend the text of the FWCC only if it finds that:
1. The proposed amendment is consistent with the applicable provisions of
the comprehensive plan;
The proposed FWCC text amendment related to nonconforming residential
structttres (FWCC 22-334) is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan, because
allowing the expansion of noncontbrming residential structures, so long as the
nonconformity is not increased or expanded and the proposed addition is consistent
with all aspects of tile FWCC, is consistent with the following Comprehensive Plan
goals and policies:
LUG3 Preserve and protec! Federal Way's single fimfily neighborhoods.

2. The proposed amendment bears a substantial relationship to public health,
safety, or welfare; and
The proposed FWCC text amendment related to nonconforming residential
structures bears a substantial relationship to the public health, safety, and welfare
because if facilitates the renovation of existing nonconforming single family
residential structures, so long as the existing nonconformity is in no way expanded
or enlarged. The proposed addition must meet all aspects of the FWCC would be
consistent with opportunities provided to all other properties.
3. The proposed amendment is in the best interest of the residents of the City.
The proposed FWCC text amendment related to nonconforming residential
structures is in the best interest of the residents of the City, because it affords
owners of single family residential structures the flexibility to renovate and
modernize existing nonconforming structures in a manner which will not increase
or expand the extent of the existing nonconformity. Well kept and modern single
family houses and neighborhoods have a positive impact on the City's residents
and the image of the City.
D. RECOMMENDATION
Staff does recommend approval of the proposed Code amendment related to
nonconforming residential structures (FWCC 22-334), to afford property owners
the maximum flexibility in the upkeep and renovation of their property, so long as
the extent of any nonconformity is not increased or expanded in any way.

2. The proposed amendment does not bear a substantial relationship to public health, safety, or
welfare because nonconforming residential uses are currently provided a special exception
Res. # Page 2
under the current Code to make alterations, renovations or changes, within certain parameters.
This expansion is limited to encourage the re-development of the area to a more intensive use
as allowed by the Code. Any further expansion of these nonconforming residential uses
increases the potential for conflict between a residential use (not currently allowed) and a more
intensive industrial, commercial or office use (which is allowed). Encouraging the further
enhancement and entrenchment of nonconforming residential uses will preclude the siting and
or expansion of business, commercial or office development, and will not further the public
health, safety, and welfare;
and
3. The proposed amendment is not in the best interest of the residents of the city because
encouraging the further enhancement and entrenchment of nonconforming residential uses in
areas designated for more intensive business, commercial or office developments will increase
conflicts between the uses and preclude the location and or expansion of commercial
developments. Business, commercial and office developments generate tax revenues for the
City and provide jobs to the City's residents. A City needs a mixture of residential and non-
residential uses to function properly.
Section 3. Severability. If any section, sentence, clause, or phrase of this resolution should be held
to be invalid or unconstitutional by a court of competent jurisdiction, such invalidity or
unconstitutionality shall not affect the validity or constitutionality of any other section, sentence, clause,
or phrase of this resolution.
Section 4. Ratification. Any act consistent with tile authority and prior to tile effective date of the
resolution is hereby ratified and affirmed.
Section 5. Effective Date. This resolution shall be effective immediately upon passage by the
Federal Way City Council.

Request for final plat approval for the Tresden Place Subdivision.
Tresden Place Subdivision is a proposed subdivision of forty-seven (47) single-
family lots on 8.53 acres. Access for Tresden Place Subdivision is via Military
Road South onto South 296~h and South 298th Streets. All required roads,
sidewalks, storm drainage facilities, sewer lines, and water lines have been
constructed, with limited exceptions. Due to areas of the site where excess cut
material has been stock-piled for future use on the site, sidewalks, planters strips,
street lights and street trees have not yet been installed adjacent to Lots 1
through 19. Additionally, landscaping associated with pedestrian Tract B has
not been installed, again, due to additional grading which will be done during
actual home construction. Finally, property corners at the rear of Lots I - 8 and
25 - 46 have not been installed due to the additionally grading which is required.
Installation of these minor improvements is guaranteed by the applicant's
performance bond which will not be released until the above indicated items are
co~npleted.

History and Background
The Tresden Place Subdivision is a proposed subdivision of forty-seven (47) single-family lots
on 8.74 acres (Exhibit B -Final Plat Map). The Tresden Place Subdivision Preliminary Plat
(Exhibit C- Preli~ninary Plat Map) was granted approval by the Federal Way City Council on
September 19, 2000, per Resolution 00-322 (Exhibit D- Preliminary Plat Resolution).
A proposed Resolution of the City of Federal Way, Washington, to approve the final plat of
Tresden Place Subdivision is attached.
Zoning for the 8.74 acre site is Residential Single Family (RS 5.0), with a minimum lot size of
5,000 square feet. Lot sizes on the final plat range from 5,000 square feet to 7,547 square feet,
with the average size being approximately 5361 square feet.
The developer applied for final plat approval on March 12, 2002. hnprovements required by
Code are now substantially complete or financially guaranteed (Engineering Folder number 00-
103141-00EN). The final plat application was determined complete on May 24, 2002. Pursuant
to RCW 58.17.110 aud Section 20-136 of the Federal Way City Code (FWCC), 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 which 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 final plat of Tresden Place Subdivision for
compliance ~vith preliminary plat conditions and all applicable codes and policies. All applicable
codes, policies, environmcutal processes, and plat conditions have been met or financially

secured as allowed by FWCC Section 20-135.
Part of the construction of the required plat improvements includes the posting of a performance
bond by the applicant in an amount eqnal to 120% of the cost of the improvements consistent
with the provisions of FWCC 20-135. The requisite bond is in place. The majority of the
required improvements with limited exceptions. Areas of the site encompassing Lots 1 through
19 contain excess cut material which has been stock-piled for future use on the site. As such,
sidewalks, planters strips, street lights and street trees have not yet been installed adjacent to Lots
1 through 19. Additionally, landscaping associated with pedestrian Tract B has not been
installed, again, due to additional grading which will be done on Lots 27, 28, 38 and 39 during
actual ho~ne construction. Finally, property corners at the rear of Lots 1 - 8 and 25 - 46 have not
been installed due to the additionally grading which is required for future home construction.
Installation of these minor improvements is guaranteed by the applicant's performance bond
which will not be released until the above indicated items are completed.
Compliance with Preliminary Plat Conditions
Tile following lists conditions of preliminary plat approval in tile same order referenced in
Federal Way City Council Resolution 00-311. Required improvements have been completed or
financially secured as allowed by FWCC Section 20-135.

Prior to final plat recording, the applicant shall either obtain a right-of-way vacation
from the City Federal Way to vacate the westerly portion of the existing South 298'h
Street right-of-way, and execute an agreement to acquire the south half of such vacated
right-of-way from the property owner to the south; or alternatively, the applicant shall
eliminate Lots #47 and/or #48 as proposed.
Staff Response: This condition is being met. The proposed vacation is progressing
through tile approval process concurrently with the final plat application. The applicant
has been unable to secure the rights to that portion of southerly half of South 298th Street
to be vacated. As such, Lot 48 has been eliminated from the proposal; Lot 47 remains
and includes the north half of that portion of South 298'h Street to be vacated. The
Federal Way City Council adopted Resolution No. 00-333 on December 19, 2000
granting a petition to vacate that portion of South 298th Street associated with the
Tresden Place Preliminary Plat. The adopted resolution provided that once the
conditions contained within tile resolution snch as relocating tile utilities within tile
existing right-of-way have been met, tile petitioner must submit the appropriate
documentation for final approval and vacation by the Federal Way City Council. All the
required documentation }las been submitted to the City and is being referred to the Land
Use/Transportation Comlnittee for recommendation on June 3, 2002. A final decision on
the requested vacation will be made by tile Federal Way City Council on June 18, 2002.
2)
If any structures will remain on tile site, all applicable building and zoning
nonconformances must be corrected to meet applicable codes, including structural
setbacks from property lines; and in addition, sheds and/or other accessory buildings are
not permitted as primary uses on single family residential lots.
Sla././'Respouse: This condition has been met. All pre-existing structures have been
removed from the site.

6)
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% of the most recent assessed valuation or MAI appraisal, at that time,
subject to approval by the Directors of Parks and Commnnity Development Services.
StqffRe.sT)onse: This condition has been met. Tile applicant is providing a limited amount of
open space on site in tile form of Tract B, the pedestrian pathway and has opted to make an open
space fee-in-lieu-of payment pursuant to FWCC Section 20-155 for the remaiuder of the required
open space. Tract B is 4,856 square feet or 1.28% of the total plat area, thus the fee-in lieu
payment will equal 13.72% of thc assessed value. The City of Federal Way PARCS Director bas
reviewed the proposed combination and indicated that Tract B is acceptable as providing a
portion of the open space on site aud the fee in lieu percentage is acceptable. Based on assessed

The City's SEPA Responsible Official issued a Determination of Nonsignificance, with no
required mitigation measures, on May 20, 2000. There were no appeals of the decision and the
initial Determination of Nonsignificance became final without modification
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 final plat is substantially
representative of the preliminary plat and the conditions of preliminary plat have been
met or financially guaranteed.
The final plat is in conformity with applicable zoning ordinances or other land use
controls.
SlaffResponse: This criterion has been met and/or financially guaranteed. The plat
meets the zoning standards for the RS 5.0 zoning district. As provided for in FWCC
Section 20-135, performance and maintenance bonds are in place to guarantee the
installation and maintenance of required plat improvements including frontage
improvements, streets, and infrastructure.

Staff Rcpor! Rcqucsl i'or Final Plat Approval Page 7
o
That all conditions of the Hearing Examiner and/or City Council have been satisfied.
Staff Response: This criterion has been met as noted in Section IV above.
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, 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/or adequately bonded as
discussed above, including safe walking route of travel; open space provided via a
pedestrian tract and a fee-in-lieu-of obligation; drainage systems and water and sewer
systems have been installed; and streets improved to the applicable City standards.
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 and storm drainage improvements
have been constructed or financially guaranteed. In addition, all water and sewer lines
have been installed and approved by Lakehaven Utility District. As previously indicated,
limited areas of sidewalk, planter strip, landscaping, street trees, street lighting and lot
corners have yet to be installed due to site grading constraints. A performance bond in
the amount of 120% of the cost of all plat improvements remains in place and will not be
released until all required improvements have been completed (FWCC 20-135). The
Public Works Department estimates that approximately five to ten (5 - 10) percent of the
required improvements have yet to be installed. Since the performance bond exceeds the
estimated cost of the outstanding improvements yet to be completed, adequate bonding is
in place with the City.

I!1. FINDINGS
The Hearing Examiner has heard testimony, admitted documentary evidence into
the record, and taken this matter under advisement.
The Community Development Staff Report sets forth general findings, applicable
policies and provisions in this matter and is hereby marked as Exhibit "1" and
incorporated in its entirety by this reference.
o
All appropriate notices were delivered in accordance with the requirements of the
Federal Way City Code (FWCC).
The applicant has a possessory ownership interest in two adjoining, basically
rectangular shaped parcels of property consisting of 8.53 acres abutting the east
side of Military Road South within the City of Federal Way. The parcels' are
presently improved with an abandoned single family residential dwelling, two small
detached sheds, and fencing. The applicant requests preliminary plat approval to
allow removal of existing improvements and subdivision of the site into 48 single
family residential lots. The south property line abuts S. 298th St., the west leg of
which the applicant will relocate to eliminate its off-set intersection with Military
Road. Proposed lots 47 and 48 are contingent upon the City Council's vacation of
the present 298t~ St. right-of-way following relocation, and an agreement with the
abutting property owner to the south.
The site is within the northeast portion of the City at the northeast corner of the
intersection of Military Road South and S. 298~ St. and approximately 125 feet west
of Interstate - 5.
The plat map shows a looped plat road system with one access near the northwest
corner onto Military Road South and a second access extending north from S. 298~h
St. near the east property line. A .55 acre storm drainage tract is located at the
northeast corner of the site. South 298th St. presently extends east from Military
Road South at an approximate 100 foot offset to the south from 298th on the west
side of Military Road. The plat map shows that the applicant will align the east leg
with the west leg, and that the west leg will return to its present right-of-way
approximately 450 feet east of Military Road. Thus, parcels to the east using S.
298th St. for access will not be impacted.
The site is located within the RS-5.0 zone classification which authorizes single
family residential dwellings on minimum lot sizes of 5,000 square feet, and which
requires front yard setbacks of 20 feet and side and rear yard setbacks of five feet.
The plat shows a minimum lot size of 5,000 square feet, a maximum lot size of

7,565 square feet, and that all required setbacks can be met.
The parcel abutting the north property line is within the RM-3,6QC, Multi-Family zor~e
classification and improved with a mobile home park. The abuttir'~:_ i :parcel to the ea~',~:
is located within the RS-5.0 zone classification and improved ,,~,~th the Steel Lake
Grange. Parcels to the south and southwest are within the RS-9.'~, and RS-7.2 zone
classifications and improved with single family residential dwellir~'r~s. Parcels to the
north and northwest are within the RS-9.6 and RS-5.0 zone clas~-fifications and also
improved with single family residential dwellings. The prbpos~ -~r a single famii'v
residential subdivision on 5,000 square foot minimum lot sizes %onforms with the
zoning and is compatible with existing and future uses in the a~; as contemplatec
by the Federal Way Comprehensive Plan and the Federal Way ,~-------1W Code (FWCC-,.
Most of the site has significant grade changes which will nec~sitate substantia~
grading. Slopes range between 5% and 10% with the exceptic~7 of a 100% slope
located eight to 15 feet north of the north property line. This slc:z:~ ranges from t 2
to 32 feet in height and was artificially created by grading for the --nobile home park_
The applicant commissioned a geotechnical engineering study b~ ~--:~arth Consultar'r~
which was submitted March 16, 2000. The study determined th~: ..-the slope is stabte
in its present condition and configuration and consists of very d~'~._.se glacial till soils_
Site preparation will include grading 75% of the parcel and c~:~ructing retaining
walls varying between two and six feet in height along Military ~d. Conditions cf
approval require a supplemental geotechnical analysis to r-~-~_view final design
specifications, observe land surface modification activities, .v,3rify subsurfa0~-
conditions, monitor construction activities, and ensure corr-EDliance with the
recommendations contained in the present geotechnical repo~
On-site vegetation consists of domestic shrubs and grasses with a variety cf
deciduous and evergreen trees. Approximately 50% of the exis~FT~ significant trees
outside of proposed rights-of-way and the storm water detentior-- :pond tract will be
eliminated, and the applicant proposes replacement trees alom:~:_ the western ant
northern perimeters. A condition of approval requires a final larrr-?-.~cape plan whic.--
will meet the requirements of the significant tree ordinance.
The site supports no threatened or endangered plant or animal s--~==zcifies, but is lik~,,
limited to small birds and animals. Retention of trees and vegeta~:)n where possible
and installation of landscaping will help mitigate the loss of habit's-. :. No wetlands cr
streams are located on the site and the only critical area is the ._~::F~_~ep slope eight tc
15 feet off-site to the north.
The applicant has designed the plat to provide internal pec:~:~trian circulatioc
Improvements will ensure safe access by school aged children 7cz, both internal ar:c:
adjacent school bus stops. The plat map shows a mid blo~,, non-motorizec.
EXHIBIT
PAGE
pedestrian/bicycle pathway between a cul-de-sac in the west-central portion of the
site and the mid point of the internal plat road extending north from S. 298t~ St. The
path will have a paved width of 12 feet and be located within a 20 foot wide tract.
Design requirements include pedestrian scale lighting and no sight obscuring
fencing or landscaping on abutting lots.
13.
The applicant has submitted a preliminary landscape plan which shows street trees
in planter strips along the east side of Military Road, both sides of S. 298th St., both
sides of internal plat roads, and within the cul-de-sac. The a'pplicant will also provide
a minimum ten foot wide Type Ill landscape strip along Military Road in a separate
tract to be maintained and owned by homeowners. The storm detention tract must
also be screened from adjacent streets and residences. The significant tree
replacement plan will also be reviewed and approved with the landscape plan.
Conditions of approval require a final landscape plan depicting all required
landscaping elements.
14.
The City Subdivision Code requires the applicant to provide open space in the
amount of 15% of the gross land area of the parcels, or as an option (which the
applicant has requested), the applicant may pay a fee in lieu of providing the on-site
open space. The Parks Director has accepted the fee as requested.
15.
Right-of-way improvements to Military Road will include pavement widening, tapers,
curb and gutter, street trees in a planter strip, streetlights, an eight feet wide
sidewalk, and a utility strip all constructed within the right-of-way width of 39 feet as -'
measured from the centerline. The applicant will also construct a southbound left
turn lane in Military Road with a storage length of 50 feet at the 298th/Military Road
intersection. As previously found, the applicant will also correct the existing
hazardous offset intersection. The applicant will overlay existing concrete over the
full width of Military Road for the length of the project frontage including tapers to
ensure a safe and consistent road section. Improvements to S. 298th St. and internal
plat roads will include a 32 foot pavement width, five foot wide sidewalks, four foot
wide planter strip, and streetlights within a 56 foot wide right-of-way.
16.
The Federal Way School District will bus elementary and junior high school students
from bus stops within the proposed subdivision and high school students from a bus
stop on Military Road just outside the plat. The sidewalk system will provide safe
routes for students walking to bus stops. The applicant must also comply with the
City School Impact Fee Ordinance and make a per lot payment to offset the impacts
on the district of school aged children residing within the plat.
17.
The applicant will pay an optional fee in lieu of providing an on-site recreational
open space which the City will utilize to improve recreational opportunities within the
planning area of the site. Steel Lake Park is located approximately one mile
EXHIBIT--------
southwest of the site.
18.
Lake Haven Utility District will provide sanitary sewers, domestic water, and fire flow
to the site.
19.
Abutting property owners raised concerns regarding the impact of storm water
runoff. The applicant must design and construct storm drainage facilities in
accordance with the requirements of the 1998 King County Surface Water Design
Manual and the City's amendments thereto. The storm'water plans propose to
collect and convey storm water to a combination water quality/detention pond at the
northwest corner of the site. The pond will then discharge storm water at a metered
rate to the existing City drainage ditch on Military Road. The applicant's grading
plan will assure that all storm water is directed to the storm drainage pond, with the
exception of the runoff from the S. 298th St. pavement near the southeast corner of
the site which will continue to flow to the ditch along Interstate-5.
20.
Prior to obtaining preliminary plat approval the applicant must establish that the
request satisfies the criteria set forth in Section 20-126(c) FWCC. Findings on each
criteria are hereby made as follows:
The proposed preliminary plat is consistent with the Federal Way
Comprehensive Plan adopted December, 1998, which designates the
property as Single Family-High Density. Developing the site with minimum
5,000 square foot lot sizes is consistent with density allowances and policies.'-
The preliminary plat complies with all applicable provisions of the FWCC
including those adopted by reference. The plat must comply with all FWCC
provisions to include those set forth in Chapter 18, Environmental Policy;
Chapter 20, Subdivisions; and Chapter 22, Zoning.
C. The preliminary plat is consistent with the public health, safety, and welfare.
The project complies with the design criteria set forth in Section 20-2 FWCC.
It promotes the effective use of !and by proposing a development in
compliance with both the comprehensive plan and zoning. The proposed
plat avoids congestion and promotes safe and convenient travel on City
streets by providing significant street improvements along Militaw Road to
include a left turn lane and alignment of the east and west legs of S. 298''~
Street. Adequate air and light are addressed by meeting all setbacks, and

IV. CONCLUSIONS
From the foregoing findings the Hearing Examiner makes the following conclusions:
The Hearing Examiner has jurisdiction to consider and make recommendations to
the City Council on the issues presented by this request.
Section 20-110 FWCC requires the Examiner to review a preliminary plat for
compliance with applicable sections of the FWCC and RCW 58.17 at a public
hearing and issue a written recommendation to the City Council which then makes
the final decision.
The applicant has established that the request for preliminary plat approval of
Tresden Place is consistent with the Single Family High Density designation of the
Federal Way Comprehensive Plan and satisfies all bulk requirements of the RS-5
zone classification of the Federal Way City Code.
The applicant has also established that the request satisfies all criteria set forth in
Section 20-126(c) FWCC, the design Criteria listed in Section 20-2 FWCC, and the
development standards listed in Sections 20-151 through 20-157 FWCC and in
Sections 20-178 through 20-187 FWCC.
The proposed preliminary plat makes appropriate provision for the public health,
safety, and general welfare for open spaces, drainage ways, streets, alleys, other
public ways, water supplies, sanitary waste, transit stops, parks, playgrounds,
schools and School grounds, sidewalks, and other planning features that assure
safe walking conditions for students. The proposed preliminary plat will serve the
public use and interest by providing an attractive location for a single family
residential subdivision in a mixed use area of the City while at the same time
correcting existing road deficiencies.
The Federal Way City Council should approve the proposed preliminary plat subject
to the following conditions:

PLANNING VS. PREEMPTION UNDER SENATE BILL 6594
Secure Community Transition Facilities for Sexual Predators
Prepared 4/I/02
_Wily a city should adopt plans
for siting transition facilities
Local Control & Neighbo,'hood Protection -
Planning gives a city greater control over siting of
facilities and the ability to protect residential, etc.,
areas.
Procedural Protection - Planning allows a city to
create extensive review procedures to the protect
public interest (unless more extensive ,'eviews
would be null and void - see other column).
Permanent Protectiott - Tile state could loosen its
· siting criteria in tile furore to create more sites, but
state could not change city-adopted criteria.
Proccdt, ral Complexity- City criteria fl~at are
different fi'om those of the state would be new aud
thus more complicated for the state, which might
make state illOl'e likely to look at a cit5 xvhc~e ~t ~
use ~ts own criteria.
Ah'eady Involved - A citx woulci ha~c it rotc ti, ti~c
siting process via buiJding per n ts even ti'
preempted, so it may not make sense
back out of one-hal f' of the siting debme
Citizen Expectations - Citizens expect their c~t5
play a role in tile siting process- even it' preempted
Planning would bt5 !lit)re proactive ti/ali

Time Constraints- A city must adopt dcxclopmcnl
regulations by 9/I/02. which requires extensive staff
work, planning commission review, city council
review, etc.
Incentives Risk - Ifa city plans and thus create\

DSHS Publishes Siting Gidelines For Sex Offender Secure Community Transition
Facilities
Olympia - Guidelines counties and cities will use to find sites to locate Secure Community
Transition Facilities (SCTF) for sex offenders are now published on the Department of Social and
Health Services [DSHS) Web site. The facilities are for sex offenders moved out of the Special
Commitment Center (SCC) by the courts for further treatment. This fulfills a provision of legislation
(3ESS. B 6151) passed earlier this year that required DSHS to consult with a joint select committee
created by the bill and then publish the guidelines by October 1, 2001.
The Secure Community Transition Facilities are smaller housing units required by the federal court
to provide a community-based treatment setting for SCC sex offenders who have progressed
successfully through multiple levels of treatment over several years. The community facilities will
be the next step in treatment for those who convince a court they have completed the treatment
regimen at the SCC and can be conditionally released from total confinement to the highly
supervised SCTF where they will continue to undergo treatment.
In Senate Bill 6151, the State Legislature decided there must be an equitable distribution of Secure
Community Transition Facilities throughout the state. The Legislature directed local governments to
consider DSHS guidelines in adapting local regulations to accommodate such facilities. Since a
SCTF is considered an essential public facility, no local plan or regulation may preclude a SCTF.
Under the guidelines, DSHS must approve any site selected by the local government. Each site
must be large enough to contain a SCTF with a minimum of three beds.
In no case may a SCTF be sited adjacent to, immediately across a street or parking lot from, or
within the line of sight of risk potential facilities defined in the law as schools, school bus stops,
preschool facilities, day care facilities, public parks, publicly dedicated trails, sports fields,
recreational and community centers, churches, synagogues, temples, mosques or public libraries.
The law requires DSHS guidelines to endeavor to achieve an average law enforcement response
time to the SCTF of not greater than five minutes. The guidelines must also balance the response
time with the proximity to the defined risk potential facilities.
Every site must have access to reliable security monitoring services and back-up systems to
accommodate sophisticated security measures.
Permitting must be possible under the local zoning code.
SCTFs with six or fewer residents must have one staff on duty for each resident during the morning
and afternoon shifts, and at least two staff on duty at night. The law also requires intensive staff
DSHS Publishes Siting Gidelines ]:'or Sex Offender Secure Community Transition Faciliti... Page 2 o1'3
training and background checks.
As required in the legislation, these guidelines follow the August 31, 2001, notification of all
counties in Washington State of the number of SCTF beds that may be needed in each county.
Twelve of the thirteen counties that had at least three residents committed to the SCC on
April 1, 2001, are required by the law to plan for at least a three-bed Secure Community
Transition Facility (SCTF) to be available, if needed, for the period May 2004 through May
2.008. King and Snohomish Counties are required to plan for siting a greater number of
beds based on their proportionate share of SCC residents.

to plan for an SC'fF. However, the legislature provided monetary incentives for any county that
voluntarily provides facilities for more than its fair share of SCTF beds.
Statewide, DSHS projects a need for at least 49 community-based SCTF beds by mid-2007. The
new SCTF under construction at the North Complex on McNeil Island will house 15 SCTF beds and 9
pre-transitional beds.
DSHS is under federal court order to provide SCTF facilities in communities throughout the state
for those sex offenders who successfully complete all phases of treatment in the SCC and are ready
for community-based treatment as part of their transition back into society.
The current population of the SCC is 144 with 142 men at McNeil Island and 2 women at the
Corrections Center in Purdy.

BACKGROUND iNFORMATION
1. What is the Special Commitment Center?
The Special Commitment Center (SCC), located on McNeil Island, is a total
confinement facility designed to provide long-term rehabilitative treatment for
certain sexual offenders. The program, operated by the Department of Social
and Health Services (DSHS), is housed within the secure perimeter of the
McNeil Island Corrections Center. Although the program operates within the
confines of a correctional facility, it is not a prison or criminal justice program.
It is a specialized mental health treatment program.
Sex offenders who have completed their criminal sentences, but are found by
state superior courts to meet the definition of "sexually violent predator" under
chapter 71.09 RCW, may be civilly committed to the SCC for care, control,
and custody. They remain in the total confinement program receiving
ongoing treatment until the court determines that they are ready for
placement in a community supervised living arrangement (LRA).
2. What does "less restrictive alternative" mean? What is a "secure
community transition facility?"
A less restrictive alternative (LRA) placement is defined in the state law as a
living arrangement that is less restrictive than total confinement. An LRA
placement may be in a residential facility program operated or contracted by
the Department of Social and Health Services or in the person's own home in
the community.
"Secure community transition facility" (SCTF) is the statutory name for a LRA
residential facility program operated or contracted by DSHS. As stated in
RCW 71.09.020, "...a secure community transition facility has supervision
and security, and either provides or ensures the provision of sex offender
treatment services." The program offers 24-hour intensive staffing and line-
of-sight supervision by trained escorts when residents leave the facility.
3. How does a court decide when an SCC resident is ready for conditional
release from the SCC? What are the grounds for making that decision?
Each civilly committed person receives an annual review by qualified
professionals to evaluate the person's progress in treatment. A civilly
Department of Social and Health Services
Special Commitment Center
April 2002
committed individual has a right to an annual hearing in the superior court of
commitment to determine his or her readiness for conditional or unconditional
release. The superior court judge or jury makes the decision based on expert
testimony of the person's history and progress. If the court determines that
the community can be adequately protected and it is in the person's best
interest to be conditionally released, the court may order the person's
conditional release to a less restrictive alternative placement. The court's
determination that an individual is ready for conditional release is based on
the individual's behavior, psychological testing, and expert testimony.
4. Why is it necessary to establish LRA facilities?
As required by state law, individuals who have been determined by the courts
to be ready for conditional release have the right to live in settings that are
less restrictive than total confinement. As discussed below, the civil
commitment program must meet the standard of "constitutionally adequate
mental health treatment." This means that residents who are ready for
conditional release must have an opportunity for placement in a less
restrictive alternative placement. Many SCC residents do not have the
personal or family resources necessary to provide the level of support and
supervision required for successful conditional release. A structured and
closely supervised community residential program provides community
protection and an appropriate environment in which the conditionally released
person can continue treatment, learn appropriate life skills, and make a
successful transition to community living while being closely monitored.
In August 1991, a civil rights complaint was filed in federal court alleging
violations of the constitutional rights of SCC residents. In 1994, the Federal
District Court entered an order and injunction requiring the SCC to provide
the residents with "constitutionally adequate mental health treatment." Since
1995, the court has held annual or semiannual hearings on the state's
progress toward meeting the court's requirements. Following the November
1999 hearing, the federal court ordered that a penalty of $50 per day per
resident accrue, but deferred the state's payment of the contempt sanctions
because many improvements had been made within the SCC program. The
court also found that the lack of less restrictive alternative housing options
was a significant issue and ordered the state to "[make] arrangements...for
the community transition of qualified residents, under supervision, when they
are ready for a less restrictive alternative."
Following the July 2001 and February 2002 hearings, the court found that the
state's enactment of legislation (3ESSB 6151 and ESSB 6594) establishing
the McNeil Island Secure Community Transition Facility and providing a
process for siting additional facilities on the mainland was a significant
positive step. However, the coud has continued the accrual of the contempt
sanctions (now well over $4 million) until the state has established LRA
facilities on the mainland.
Department of Social and Health Services
Special Commitment Center

5. Why doesn't the state appeal the federal court orders? What would
happen if the state simply refused to provide less restrictive alternative
housing options?
The state has appealed past federal court orders and lost. At the very least,
a refusal to implement less restrictive alternative housing options may result
in an order requiring the state to pay a large sanction that could continue until
compliance with the court order is met. A refusal could ultimately place the
SCC program in jeopardy and lead to the closure of the program and release
of SCC residents to settings with little or no supervision.
6. How many sex offenders reside in the SCC?
As of April 2002, there are 156 residents in the Special Commitment Center
total confinement program, including one woman who is housed at a special
unit in the Washington Corrections Center for Women at Purdy, and one
juvenile who is in a program outside Washington State. There are also seven
SCC residents who have received court-ordered conditional releases. Three
of these individuals are living in private residences in the custody of their
families, three are in a special needs contracted community program, and
one is in the recently established McNeil Island Secure Community Transition
Facility. For the past several years, admissions to the SCC have been
averaging about 2.5 residents per month.
SCC TREATMENT PROGRAM AND SECURITY REQUIREMENTS
7. What kind of rehabilitative treatment do SCTF residents receive?
Prior to their conditional release, SCC residents participate in an intensive
treatment program at the total confinement facility. The treatment program
requires the resident to participate in intensive individual and group sessions
with qualified professionals, undergo periodic polygraph (lie detector) and
plethysmograph (sexual arousal) tests, and, in some cases, take
medications. Residents who successfully complete the first five phases of
treatment begin their preparation for a community transition placement.
Residents who receive court-ordered conditional releases to an LRA must
continue participating in intensive treatment with a qualified, court-approved
community sex offender treatment provider. The SCTF staff work as a team
with the treatment provider and the resident's assigned community
corrections officer to monitor each resident's progress throughout all aspects
of the community transition progra~T~.
8. What level of security does an SCTF provide for community protection?
State law requires SCTFs to provide a high degree of security and staff
supervision. The coordination and teamwork of the SCTF program staff, sex
offender treatment provider, community corrections officer, and local la,,,,.,
Department of Social and Health Services
Special Commitment Center
April 2002
enforcement are essential to assuring community protection.
measures include:
Security
Specific conditions set by the court. To protect the community when a
person is conditionally released, the court of commitment orders clearly
defined conditions that the person must follow. State law requires the
program staff, treatment providers, and community corrections officers to
immediately report serious violations of court-ordered conditions,
including any alleged criminal offenses, to law enforcement. If the person
is not arrested and detained by law enforcement, the person must be
transferred to the SCC total confinement facility pending the outcome of a
court review.
Proximity of SCTF site to risk locations. When a property is
considered for an SCTF, the law requires DSHS and local governments
to consider and address many factors. Key considerations include the
distances between the SCTF property and "risk potential activities and
facilities" such as child care centers, schools, school bus stops, public
libraries. The law also requires evalua{ing a site to determine if barriers
exist or can be installed to shield visibility between the SCTF and
adjacent properties, if electronic monitoring services are available to the
area, and if there is reasonable access to community services such as
treatment, employment, vocational training, etc.
Intensive staffing. The law requires the SCTF to provide intensive
staffing ratios. In facilities with six or fewer residents, the facility must
provide a ratio of one staff on duty for each resident during the day and
evening hours, and two staff on duty for every three residents during the
night hours.
Close supervision and escorts. Unless otherwise ordered by the court,
each SCTF resident must be closely supervised (on a one-to-one basis)
by a trained staff or court-authorized e~cort when the resident leaves the
SCTF premises for any purpose. The staff/escort must remain with the
resident for the duration of the outing, even when the resident may be
working at a job.
Household security systems. The SCTF facility must have household
and perimeter security systems installed that meet specific technical
specifications and offer appropriate emergency backup provisions. This
includes providing a tamper-proof security panel, emergency electrical
supply system, personal panic devices for all staff, staff photo ID badges,
etc.
Intensive training for qualified staff. SCTF staff must meet specific
qualifications and receive specialized in-service training on a range of
topics before they begin working with residents. Each staff is required to
Department of Social and Health Services
Special Commitment Center
April 2002
pass a thorough state and federal criminal background check and not
have a history of any felony convictions.
Informed staff and escorts. Staff and escorts must be fully informed
about each resident's offense history and behavior patterns. Although
staff and escorts do not carry guns, they must be equipped with cell and
radio phones, and be trained in self-defense and appropriate emergency
response procedures.
Community trips require advance planning. Residents are allowed to
leave the facility premises only for specific purposes, as authorized by the
court order, and only with prior approval of the resident's assigned
community corrections officer, treatment provider, and the SCTF program
manager. Reasons for leaving the facility may include treatment,
employment interviews, employment, training, and other activities, such
as family visits, that are specifically addressed in the resident's treatment
plan.
Individual electronic monitoring devices. Unless otherwise ordered by
the court, each resident must wear an individual electronic monitoring
device.
If an SCTF is sited in our county, will the residents placed there be the
same ones who were committed from our county?
It is possible, but not a given. The court orders the placement and considers
many factors including whether housing is available that meets the court's
conditions and the individual's needs, a qualified community sex offender
treatment therapist has agreed to work with the resident and make regular
reports to the court, the location of victims, etc.
PLANNING AND SITING REQUIREMENTS FOR
SECURE COMMUNITY TRANSITION FACILITIES
lO.What is being proposed? What does the law require?
Two laws have been passed that address the siting of secure community
transition facilities. In June 2001, the state enacted 3ESSB 6151 (Chapter
12, Laws of 2001, E2). This law provides direction to DSHS and local
governments in the planning and siting of secure community transition
facilities. The law requires counties and cities that are fully planning under
the Growth Management Act (GMA) to include a process in their
comprehensive plans and development regulations to provide for the siting of
SCTFs. Counties and cities not fully planning under GMA also must establish
a planning process and amend their development regulations, as needed, to
provide for siting SCTFs. The statute provides specific siting requirer'nents
Department of Social and Health Services
Special Commitment Center
April 2002
and community safety standards that DSHS and local governments must
follow.
In March 2002, ESSB 6594 (Chapter 68, Laws of 2002) was enacted. This
legislation amended some of the siting criteria enacted in the previous
legislation and addressed several other issues that are relevant to the role of
cities and counties in the SCTF planning and siting process. The
requirement to site facilities in areas in which it is possible to "endeavor to
achieve an average law enforcement emergency response time of five
minutes" was deleted from the law. ESSB 6594 provides cities and counties
with immunity from causes of action for civil damages related to the siting of
SCTFs. Cities and counties and their law enforcement personnel are also
granted immunity from causes of action for civil damages if law enforcement
personnel make reasonable and good faith efforts to respond to emergencies
involving SCTF residents.
The 2002 law authorizes two types of contractual agreements between DSHS
and local governments. DSHS and the local government where a facility is
sited may contract with each other to memorialize their agreements on SCTF
operating procedures and their respective roles and responsibilities.
Contingent upon funds being appropriated, DSHS may also contract with
local communities to provide resources to mitigate the impact of the SCTF.
To assure that facilities can be sited in a timely manner, ESSB 6594 provides
the state with limited authority to "preempt and supersede local plans,
development regulations, permitting requirements, inspection requirements,
and all other laws as necessary to enable the department to site, construct,
renovate, occupy, and operate secure community transition facilities..." The
state's preemption authority applies only to six counties (Clark, King, Kitsap,
Snohomish, Spokane, and Thurston) and any of their cities and only to any of
those jurisdictions that fail to comply, by September 1, 2002, with the
statutory planning requirements for siting secure community transition
facilities.
11 .What is the role of the local jUrisdiction? What is the role of DSHS?
Under RCW 36.70A.200, no local comprehensive plan or development
regulation may preclude the siting of essential public facilities, including
SCTFs. State regulations recommend that local governments take a
cooperative inter-jurisdictional approach, consistent with countywide planning
policies, in planning for difficult-to-site essential public facilities of a
countywide, regional or statewide nature.
Cities and counties have the lead role in defining a process and appropriate
areas for siting SCTFs. In other words, local jurisdictions are responsible for
planning and permitting. To pla. n for the siting of these facilities, local
governments must conduct the analysis necessary to identify areas or sites
Department of Social and Health Services
Special Commitment Center
Ap,,-il 2002
that meet the minimum criteria required by state law. As the permitting
authority, local government is not responsible for buying or leasing land or
buildings for SCTFs.
DSHS is required to work with local governments in the planning process. In
the event that DSHS must preempt a local jurisdiction to site a facility, DSHS
will continue to consult with the local government as appropriate. To help
local jurisdictions in the planning process, DSHS will provide program
information, geographic information system (GIS) data and other technical
support. To support this effort, DSHS is building a comprehensive
geographic information system to assist local jurisdictions in the mapping and
review of potentially suitable areas for siting SCTFs. Once a local jurisdiction
has identified appropriate area(s) or zones, and DSHS has determined that a
facility is needed in that area, DSHS will review the available properties within
those areas to identify specific sites. After identifying specific sites, DSHS
will apply to the local jurisdiction for the appropriate permits. If the jurisdiction
has been preempted, DSHS will continue to consult with local government as
appropriate.
12.What is the role of the individual towns and cities within the county? is
my city required to find a site separate from sites that may be identified
by the county?
At a minimum, the state law requires counties and cities within the county to
notify each other of siting plans. The legislation does not further define how
counties and cities must coordinate. Early coordination, with counties taking
a lead role, is advisable because it allows the seamless review of risk
potential facilities and equitable distribution factors.
All counties and cities must establish a process and development regulations
to provide for siting SCTFs. Except where countywide planning policies have
otherwise dictated siting choices, development regulations should provide for
the possibility of siting each of the listed essential public facilities somewhere
within each jurisdiction's planning area. DSHS expects that a coordinated
countywide analysis will determine that some areas within a county's
boundaries will be preferred over others for siting SCTFs.
13.1n August 2001, DSHS notified all 39 counties that SCTFs may need to
be sited within any of 12 identified counties sometime between May
2004 and May 2007. Our county was one of the 12 counties identified,
but it is not one of the six counties that are subject to preemption under
ESSB 6594. Do different planning and siting requirements apply to our
county?
No. ESSB 6594, however, clarifies that a failure of any jurisdiction to
complete the planning by the deadline is not a condition for fiscal sanctions,
appeals to the growth management hearings board, or a private cause of
action. If your jurisdiction is not subject to preemption, it is highly unlikely that
Department of Social and Health Services
Special Commitment Center
April 2002
DSHS would site a facility in your area unless your jurisdiction volunteers as
a location. Jurisdictions that are subject to preemption and that fail to do the
required planning by the deadline run the risk of losing local control over the
SCTF siting, permitting, and construction process if and when DSHS
determines that a facility must be sited in that jurisdiction. If DSHS decides to
site a facility in a preempted jurisdiction, the department will consult with the
local government and attempt to follow local procedures and practices to the
extent possible.
14. What steps does DSHS suggest for coordinating with local
jurisdictions?
Although there will be local variations, DSHS suggests the following steps:
The county and its cities establish a coordinated countywide planning
process. At a minimum, a coordinated process would include sharing
early drafts of revisions to comprehensive plans and development
regulations.
b. DSHS, counties, and cities share data on location of risk potential
facilities and activities and equitable distribution factors.
c. DSHS assembles the data available and provides counties and cities with
digital GIS data.
Counties and cities adopt comprehensive plan amendments and
development regulations, as necessary, that define the siting process,
criteria, and zones, areas or site(s) appropriate for siting SCTFs.
When ready to site a facility in a particular area, DSHS reviews available
sites within the areas identified by the local jurisdiction(s) and approves
sites that meet state requirements. If a jurisdiction has been preempted,
DSHS consults with the local government and identifies appropriate sites.
As needed, DSHS selects one or more potential SCTF sites within the
areas identified by the local jurisdiction(s).
DSHS, in consultation and coordination with the local jurisdiction(s) where
sites under consideration are located, holds public hearings on the sites
as required by state law.
g. DSHS selects the preferred site for the facility.
If the local jurisdiction has not been preempted, DSHS follows the local
jurisdiction's permitting requirements. If the jurisdiction has been
preempted, DSHS consults with the local government, engages the
services of other permitting and construction consultants and resources
as needed (e.g., the state fire marshal) to act in lieu of the local
government.

15.What GIS data is DSHS collecting and making available to local
jurisdictions?
DSHS is gathering data that include:
Locations of the risk potential facilities referenced in the law. These risk
potential facilities include public and private schools, licensed day care
facilities, licensed preschool facilities, public parks, publicly dedicated
trails, playgrounds, and sports fields, recreational and community centers,
school bus stops, churches, synagogues, temples, and mosques, and
public libraries.
The number of registered sex offenders (Levels I, II, and Ill) aggregated
by city and county. Limitations of the data prevent further sub-
categorization by offender level. Data sharing agreements preclude
DSHS from releasing this information at an individual level.
· The number of residential facility beds in each jurisdiction operated by the
Department of Corrections' and the DSHS Mental Health Division.
By mid-May 2002, DSHS plans to make the GIS data available to the
six counties and their cities subject to preemption. Cities may wish to
coordinate their efforts through their county's GIS department to assure
consistency and seamless coverage. Data for the remaining counties and
cities will be limited at this time, but DSHS will continue to build the
system so that over time, information will be available statewide.
16,Who is responsible for the public's participation in the planning and
siting process?
The local jurisdiction is responsible for the public participation process
required for the revisions it makes to its comprehensive plan and
development regulations. State law requires DSHS to conduct a public
hearing process during the final site selection.
Where local government requires public notice and hearings associated with
permits, the DSHS public hearings requirement does not apply to the extent
they are duplicative of the local requirement. Local public hearing
requirements would apply only in non-preempted jurisdictions.
17.What is the amount that will be awarded in a planning grant? Does
accepting the grant make it more likely that DSHS will site a facility in
our jurisdiction?
DSHS is waiting until early May 2002 for responses from cities and counties
about their interest in applying for grants before determining the level of grant
awards. DSHS is considering various award options such as providing
Department of Social and Health Services
Special Commitment Center
April 2002
somewhat larger awards to counties than to cities that apply individually and
providing a small bonus for jurisdictions that apply jointly.
A local jurisdiction's acceptance of a planning grant will have no effect on
DSHS' siting decisions. DSHS will look for the best sites that meet statutory
requirements and program needs and that can be sited in a timely manner.
Because of the urgency to site facilities, DSHS will be looking for sites in all
six counties. In deciding where to site facilities, the department will consider
many factors including which counties were responsible for the civil
commitment of the likely LRA candidates. However, there is no one
overriding factor that will drive siting decisions.
18.What does it mean to "make a commitment to initiate the process to site
a facility?"
Jurisdictions accepting grants will be expected to fully comply with RCW
36.70A. 200. At a minimum, DSHS believes the law requires the following:
The local process and regulations must not preclude the siting of a SCTF.
The land use regulations must be consistent with, and no more restrictive
than, the requirements for siting and operating a SCTF set out in chapter
71.09 RCW.
· The jurisdiction must consider the effect of "equitable distribution factors"
on the siting of a facility as addressed in RCW 71.09.250(8).
The zones, areas or sites that the jurisdiction identifies as appropriate for
siting secure community transition facilities must include potential sites
that meet the criteria in state law. A potential site means either buildable
land or a suitable existing facility that is available for lease or purchase at
a reasonable or fair market rate.
The local jurisdiction's siting and permitting processes that would be
required when DSHS actually sites a facility must be designed to result in
a permitted site in a timely manner.
To meet these requirements, DSHS suggests that a jurisdiction needs to
complete sufficient analysis to determine whether or not the areas or zones
that it designates as appropriate for siting an SCTF will actually yield potential
sites that meet the criteria in chapter 71.09 RCW. This means analyzing risk
potential locations and equitable distribution factors. In considering the effect
of equitable distribution, DSHS suggests the jurisdiction decide whether
equitable distribution is more or less important than other public safety criteria
such as the proximity of the SCTF to risk potential locations, etc. The
process for siting a facility in a timely manner means being able to complete
construction or renovation of the facility so that the facility is available for
Department of Social and Health Services
Special Commitment Center
April 2002
occupancy when it is needed. A reasonable amount of time to complete the
local land use permitting process is 180 days from the date of application. It
is the department's expectation that other local jurisdiction permitting
processes and regulations (e.g., building permits) for SCTFs will be the same
as for similar type facilities. Again, DSHS expects that all local jurisdictions'
processes and regulations will enable the department to site a facility when it
is needed.
19.What does preemption actually mean? What procedures will DSHS
follow if siting a facility in a preempted jurisdiction?
Preemption means that all local and state land use plans, policies and
regulations do not apply to the siting of a facility. This includes state laws
such as State Environmental Protection Act (SEPA), the Shoreline
Management Act, and the Hydraulics Code. The law makes clear, however,
that DSHS must site a facility in an environmentally responsible manner that
is consistent with the substantive objectives of SEPA and consult with the
Department of Ecology to carry out the planning, construction, and operations
of the facility.
DSHS must make a threshold determination if the siting would have a
probable significant, adverse environmental impact. If so, DSHS must
prepare an environmental impact statement that meets the requirements of
SEPA and regulations promulgated by the Department of Ecology.
If DSHS sites in a preempted jurisdictions, the department will also contract
with consultant firms to review and advise on building and site preparation
requirements, the state fire marshal to review and advise on fire codes, etc.
20. How big a site do you need for a 3-bed facility or a 12-bed facility?
The required size of the site will vary by jurisdiction. Several factors must be
considered: Is the site serviced by a jurisdiction's water and sewer systems
or is a well and septic system required? If a well and septic system are
needed, what is the separation requirement? If a septic system is required,
what are the jurisdiction's drain field requirements and how well does the soil
drain on that particular site? What are the jurisdiction's requirements for
setbacks and parking?
DSHS estimates that a site for a 3-bed facility with a well and septic system
will require a minimum of 2 acres. A 12-bed facility with a well and a septic
system would require a minimum of 3 acres. If installation of a well and
septic system is not necessary, the site could be smaller but will still vary by
jurisdiction.
21. State law voids local requirements that are more restrictive than the
statutory minimum criteria. Can local jurisdictions still require that an
SCTF meet local design standards, landscaping, setback, light and
noise restrictions, etc.?
Department of Social and Health Services
Special Commitment Center
April 2002
Yes. In general, the normal physical standards for the jurisdiction and the
zoning district would apply. These might include design guidelines,
landscaping, setbacks, lighting, signage, percentage of site coverage,
location of access to a major arterial, etc. Any conditions affecting the
operation of the facility or imposing additional safety requirements would be
"more restrictive" than those in the state statute.
22. Who can local jurisdictions contact to get more information?
DSHS staff welcome the opportunity to meet with local elected officials and
staff, planning commission members, and others. All of the staff listed
below are knowledgeable about the siting of SCTFs, the SCC program, and
technical land use issues. If the staff person you contact is unable to answer
your questions, he or she will ask the appropriate person to respond.

South 298th Street Vacation
SUMMARY/BACKGROUND: The Public Hearing for the Portion of South 298m Street Vacation was held
at the December 19, 2000 City Council Meeting. No public comments were received, and the City Council
approved Resolution #00-333 directing the City Attorney to prepare an Ordinance vacating a portion of South
298th Street upon the satisfaction of the following:
A. All existing utilities within the right of way area to be vacated.have been relocated into the new
right of way or a utility easement has been granted to the City over Existing utilities.
B. The new street alignment of S. 298th Street involving the substitute right of way has been
constructed and the City has accepted the construction.
The City has verified the substitute right of way is of equal or greater value than the vacated right
of way. If the substituted right of way is of less value than the vacated portion, the Petitioners
shall have paid the difference to the City.
All utilities in the area to be vacated have been relocated into the new right of way. The new street has been
constructed and found acceptable by the Public Works Department. The owner of the abutting property to the
north (Pageantry Communities of Washington) will be dedicating, as substitute right of way, an area of 13,500
fully developed Right of Way. The portion of South 298th Street to be vacated has a total area of 8,840 square
feet
The owners of the abutting properties have satisfied the conditions outlined in Resolution #00-333 and the
substitute right of way will be dedicated as part of the final plat to be approved subsequent to this vacation.
An ordinance vacating the property is attached to this memo for approval, and staffwill be present at the Land
Use and Transportation Committee meeting to answer questions and provide additional information as needed.
RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends forwarding the attached ordinance to the June 18' 2002 Council
meeting for first reading.
