The Process I MLU application is hereby approved pursuant to condition listed below and the conclusions based on findings made by the department's Planning Division. Please note — this approval is limited to land use review of the proposed improvements and does not constitute -building permit approval that is required prior to construction. CONDITION Prior to final approval of the associated building permit (11-101542-00-CO) all parking spaces taken out of use as a result of ride placement shall be replaced on site; pursuant to the conditions of the concomitant agreement. CONCLUSIONS The subject property is zoned OP-4. Development activity at the Wild Waves Theme Park is subject to the development regulations contained in Exhibit C of the concomitant agreement adopted by ordinance 98-310. Therefore, pursuant to section 8.2 of the concomitant agreement and section 4 of Exhibit C, the proposed improvements are subject to Use Process I approval. Based on the findings below, the proposed improvements to the developed site meet the following Process I approval criteria and land use review thresholds of Federal Way Revised Code (FWRC) 19.15.030 and 19.55.020: 1. The proposed improvements are consistent with applicable chapters of FWRC Title 19 including, but not limited to: Permits and Review Processes; Process I— Director's Approval; 2. The health, safety, and welfare of the citizens of the city are preserved; 3. There is no change of use; 4. Tliere is no reduction in the amount, ul required landscaping. bLrlTer-ing, open space, or public areas: 5. There is no material change or reduction in the amount of required parking; I'd, )I•100372-00-UP Doc I D 17'3l) Ms. Kim Zier Page 2 May 6, 2011 6. There is no material change in the location of utilities, easements, or pedestrian connections; 7. There is no material change to the approved architectural design; and 8. There are no additional adverse impacts to sensitive areas or significant trees. FINDINGS 0 1. Proposal —The Japplant omitted a Process I MLU application on January 28, 2011, proposing to construct an addition to an existing waterslide consisting of a tubular slide apparatus supported by columns, a new inter -tube elevator, and a catching pool. The proposal was revised to shift the improvements to north of the existing ride. The revised location requires the removal of a small number of parking spaces, which will be replaced on -site. 2. Comprehensive Plan & Zoning Designation —The subject property is located within the Office Park comprehensive plan designation and an Office Park (OP-4) zoned area. Water slides (known as Regional Commercial Recreational Facilities) are permitted, subject to UPI approval in the OP-4 zone. 3. Community Design Guidelines Compliance —The proposed improvements are not subject to the city's community design guidelines pursuant to section 8.2 of the concomitant agreement. 4. Parking— Section 4.2.2 of the concomitant agreement addresses parking for additions/improvements to the theme park. The agreement states that if new improvements are made outside the boundaries of the existing park, a corresponding amount of new parking shall be added to address parking impacts. The proposed improvements are located within the existing development area and are therefore, not subject to the need for additional parking. Replacement parking is required; however, as the proposed location of the ride displaces a small number of existing parking stalls. This land use decision is conditioned to require the replacement of displaced parking spaces, on site, prior to final approval of the associated building permit. 5. Height — The proposed improvements are in Area 3 of the park as designated on Exhibit E of the concomitant agreement. Pursuant to section 3.4 of the concomitant agreement structures in Area 3 are allowed up to 125-feet in height. The proposed improvements are approximately 40-feet in height. 6. Environmental Review — The proposed ride is categorically exempt from an environmental threshold determination pursuant to State Environmental Policy Act Rules 197-11-800(1). New improvements include a pool building of approximately 450 square feet and a tubular waterslide network supported by columns. The total building square footage of 450 square feet is less than the categorical exemption of 12,000 square feet. Traffic Impact Fees — Traffic impact fees, if any, will be determined prior to issuance of the building permit. LAND USE REVIEw FEE An hourly Use Process I review tee of $370 ($74/hr for five hours) must be submitted prior to building permi; issuance.
