Notable statistics from 2016-2021 include the following: 1. Government, Healthcare, retail, and professional private business sectors remain the largest in Federal Way. 2. Arts, Accommodations/food services, and "other services" sectors remain the lowest paid sectors, and all have experienced a 10-25% loss of jobs since 2016. 3. Lower paying service jobs have experienced a decline between 10-20% since 2016 (Manufacturing, Food services, Transportation/warehousing, wholesale trade, management and utilities). 4. The information and Professional/Scientific/Technical sectors have experienced the highest job growth rates since 2016, but lag behind national growth rates for cities of similar sizes. 5. In Calendar year 2021, 79% of unique job postings required 1 year or less experience, and 70% of jobs required only High School / GED education. Dr. Ali Modarres of UW-Tacoma will present the findings of the report, a copy of which is attached. Rev. 7/18 PIIIM�Tlo, WASHINGTON I TA A W 14 Assessing the Local Economy and Patterns of Job Postings CITY OF FEDERAL WAY This report focuses on a set of labor analyses based on data provided by EMSI. This is followed by selected analytics related to job postings during the calendar years 2020 and 2021. Given the impact of COVID-19 on the economy, this report provides an analysis of the economy of Federal Way as it has begun to recover from the global pandemic. Section I: Economic Landscape Using data from the last five years, population growth is outpacing job growth, with the expectation that this pattern will continue over the next five years (Figure 1). This is not unusual, since this pattern can be observed in other smaller cities in a metropolitan area. The highest levels of job growth (2016-2021) have occurred in government, healthcare and social assistance, retail, construction, and Professional/technical/scientific (Figure 2). The first three exceed the national average for the number of jobs in cities of comparable size. Percentagewise, information, Professional/technical/scientific, and retail have witnessed the largest growth (Figure 3). As information related jobs have grown from 2016 to 2021, Federal Way has approached the national average in this sector (again for cities of comparable size). That is not the case for professional, technical, and scientific jobs. By the size of their employment, government, healthcare and social assistance, and retail are the top sectors, and all three witnessed growth between 2016 and 2021 (Figure 4). Given the size and growth of healthcare and social assistance, this sector, along with information technology, could become the major economic characteristic of Federal Way, followed by retail. It is important to pay attention to the declining employment opportunities in lower paying service jobs, such as accommodation and food services. The location quotient, which provides a quick assessment of the level of concentration, identifies the same three large employment sectors (government, healthcare and social assistance, and retail) as highly concentrated for a city the size of Federal Way (Figure 5). Analyzing jobs from the perspective of wages provides an additional glimpse into the emerging economy of the city (Figure 6). Except for Healthcare Support, all jobs paying less than $20 per hour (on average) declined between 2016 and 2021 (Figure 6). Higher income category jobs, on the other hand, have grown. This paints a picture of declining service jobs and growth of more employment opportunities in higher paying professional categories. Many of the high paying jobs, however, are small in their employment size, except for healthcare and social assistance jobs (Figures 6). It is noteworthy that government and retail sectors are the largest contributors to the gross regional economy (Figure 7), even though retail is not necessarily high -income generating sector. The two sectors are followed by the information sector, which also provides the largest income for its employees (Figure 8). This might be an economic development opportunity for Federal Way to explore further (Figure 9). That said, should retail employment 1 Report provided by UW Tacoma Office of Community Partnerships' Center forApplied Urban Research (CAUR) opportunities decline further, Federal Way may have to consider its land use and alternative employment potentials for its residents. At this point, retail seems to continue to grow, albeit that the rate of growth remains low.

While job postings are typically a good indicator of labor demands, the last two years (as we have gone through the ups and downs of the pandemic and its impact on the economy) can be highly illustrative of the continuing labor needs of Federal Way and some of the unusual changes/shifts it might have faced. To perform this analysis, we examined all the job postings for the city and compared January to December 2020 (CY (Calendar Year) 2020) period with January to December 2021 (CY 2021). During CY 2020, there were a total of 40,086 postings, with 11,315 being unique (translating to posting intensity of 4:1). During CY 2021, there were a total of 59,959 postings, with 14,945 being unique (translating once again to posting intensity of 4:1). Clearly, the job market expanded from 2020 to 2021, fitting the growth 5 Report provided by UW Tacoma Office of Community Partnerships' Center forApplied Urban Research (CAUR) patterns that started in 2018 (Figure 10). While many jobs posted in 2020 offered annual incomes below $35K, a sizable number offered $60K or higher (Figure 11). This pattern, with a slight shift to higher incomes, was repeated in 2021. This is another indication that Federal Way has a bifurcated economy of emerging professional and high paying jobs, along with sizable services and retail jobs that offer lower incomes. Combining the two, posted jobs in Federal Way have maintained an hourly average wage of about $20 (or an annual income of about $40K) (Figure 12). Surprisingly, more than 40% of jobs in 2020 and 2021 did not require any education, with some asking for high school education (Figure 13). About 60% also did not mention or require any job experience (Figure 14). This might suggest that the majority of posted jobs were targeting low -skilled and/or entry level workers. In both years, Amazon was the major source of employment (Figure 15). However, it is not surprising that the healthcare sector was the second largest recruiter in the city. After all, this is a growth sector for Federal Way, further accentuating the current economic landscape, as well as wage earning potentials. This pattern emerges also in the top-20 posted occupations in both years (Figure 16). Registered nurses and retail salespersons were in high demand in the city. That is the bifurcated employment and economic landscape mentioned earlier. The top recruiting industries also show the same two sectors (Figure 17). Nursing and warehousing were listed among the top desired skills (Figure 18), as well.

At the same time, information and professional/technical sectors are rapidly growing, albeit that they are still small in size. This presents the city with a unique opportunity to build a unique urban experience that focuses on live, work, and play principals that grow a balance of professional and service jobs, offering urban amenities and shopping/entertainment, and reducing the level of commuting. Federal Way has an enviable geography that benefits from proximity to Seattle, Bellevue, and Renton economic agglomeration, complementing their tech sector through small and medium companies. Federal Way could easily become the entrepreneurial and business incubation zone for a professional population that could produce higher expendable income for supporting its retail, entertainment, and the arts sectors.

Mayor Ferrell noted this process has the Council acting in a Quasi -Judicial capacity. He posed the following questions to the Councilmembers: Do any of the Councilmembers have an interest in the property or application, or own property within 300 feet of the property subject to the application? • Do any of the Councilmembers gain or lose any financial benefit as a result of the outcome of this hearing? Are there any Councilmembers who cannot hear and consider this matter in a fair and objective manner? Has any member of the Council engaged in communication outside this hearing with opponents or proponents on the issue to be heard? In response to each question, Councilmembers answered no. Council President Kochmar, Deputy Mayor Honda, and Councilmember Walsh each disclosed they had been asked general questions such as the status of the process by community members, however noting of significance was discussed. City Attorney Call confirmed all public comments made at public meetings previously have been included in the record. Federal Way City Council Regular Minutes Page 4 of 8 August 9, 2022 Mayor Ferrell asked the audience if there were objections to this hearing; hearing no objections, he asked Associate Planner Natalie Kamieniecki to begin the staff presentation. Ms. Kamieniecki provided the background and history on the property and this project. The request is to rezone from Office Park (OP) to Multi -Family (MF). She provided an overview of the public comments received noting concerns with traffic, safety and increased crime. She stated the Planning Commission recommendation following a public hearing was to include a development agreement pursuant to FWRC 19.85 to cover homeownership opportunities and other items deemed appropriate by the City Council. Issues negotiated between city planning staff and the developer and incorporated into the Development Agreement include market -rate townhomes, which allows for each home to be sold individually; dedicated garage parking for each townhome; access to open space; and an "amenities" building. Development Agreements run with the land and will be in effect for 10-years from the effective date, even if the property ownership changes. Development Agreements also require a public hearing before the City Council. Ms. Kamieniecki stated based on the analysis, findings and conclusions, staff is recommending approval of the proposed Comprehensive Plan Amendment, Rezone and Development Agreement. Mayor Ferrell thanked Ms. Kamieniecki and asked the applicant to present information. Eric Labrie, ESM Consulting Engineers, spoke on behalf of the property owner. He spoke to the rezone request, which is consistent with adjacent zoning and improves a long-term blighted area once held by Bally's Athletic Club. He provided information on the plan for the property and answered questions. Liz Soldano spoke on behalf of Intracorp providing information on a possible design for this project, which includes 2,3, and 4-bedroom townhomes over a garage. She noted by developing the property into townhomes that can be sold, the project is supporting the City's Housing Action plan to add "missing middle" housing. At 8:26 p.m. Mayor Ferrell announced the Council would take a brief recess. He also announced due to the late hour, the ARPA Discussion under Council Business on the agenda, would be rescheduled to the next regular meeting; it was not calendared for action at tonight's meeting. The Mayor reconvened the meeting at 8:38 p.m. Public Comment: Kenneth Pratt shared concerns about the proposed rezone, specifically around traffic and school bus safety. Mr. Pratt also expressed favor for owner occupied units opposed to rentals. Alexandre Milsten advocated for the former Bally's property to be zoned as mixed use. Carolyn Davis expressed concerns regarding parking and traffic congestion that were noted during the presentation. Jan Barber expressed worry about the amount of traffic that would be produced from the addition of potentially 145 residential units. Federal Way City Council Regular Minutes Page 5 of 8 August 9, 2022 James H. Kim collected petition signatures opposing the rezoning. He claims that many residents in the in the area are opposed to a zoning change. He proposed the zoning be changed to weekend farming or urban farming. No further public comments were received. Council thanked the presenters and the public for their testimony and asked clarifying questions of Ms. Kamieniecki, Mr. Labrie and Ms. Soldano regarding parking, traffic, the option of mixed -use, and the likelihood of the townhomes being sold or rented. Community Development Director Brian Davis clarified traffic impact is not a requirement of a zoning change rather the hearing is to determine zoning. A site plan for a specific project would be filed following a rezone approval which would be tied to a traffic study. Mr. Labrie stated the developers have agreed to build the project as individual townhomes which can be sold. He acknowledged, due to unknown market conditions at the time of completion; it is not feasible to predetermine when the units would be sold. Additional questions were asked and answered regarding affordable housing and ADA requirements. City Attorney Call noted the development agreement proposed is the result of negotiations between the developer and the city; any additional changes would need to be renegotiated; which may not be possible.

Background Information: Dissatisfied with the amount of money that would accrue to Washington State under a national settlement with AmerisourceBergen, Cardinal Health and McKesson Health, the Washington Attorney General pursued independent legal action leading to this negotiated settlement. The three defendants have agreed to the proposed settlement contingent on all litigants agreeing as well as at least 90% of all cities in Washington with a population over 10,000 agreeing. 90% of all cities must agree by September 23, 2022 in order for the settlement to take effect.
