Bob Dahl, 3612 SW 325th Street
Mr. Dahl requested a follow-up response from the City on his letter dated April 3. He also requested that the City
respond to Mary LeProwse's letter from February regarding speed humps. Mr. Dovey responded to Mr. Dahl that he
will receive a response from the Public Works Department. Mr. Dahl also noted an article in the Federal Way Mirror
regarding speed humps and the reasons the cities of Auburn, Kent and Renton oppose them. He would like to see curbs
installed on the approach side of the speed humps so that people won't drive on the sidewalks to avoid the humps.

development. JEANNE BURBIDGE MOVED, LINDA KOCHMAR SECONDED A MOTION TO
RECOMMEND APPROVAL OF THE MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING FOR THE CELEBRATION
PARK FUND RAISING CAMPAIGN BETWEEN THE CITY AND THE RAINIER AUDUBON SOCIETY,
MOTION PASSED.
PARK MAINTENANCE MANAGEMENT PLAN
Vicki Norris and Derek Matheson have been working on a maintenance management plan since last spring. Part of that
plan included an inventory of all park sites (facilities, trails, open spaces) and preparation of a yearly calendar by
activities with all tasks identified. With the reduction in staff in 1997 and one maintenance employee being on extended
leave, seasonal employees were hired to assist with the work load. AdditionaIly, the parks are no longer being locked
at dusk, which saves in overtime pay to staff and has given the police access to the park at all times. There has been a
decrease in vandalism since the parks have been open. Ms. Norris distributed the analysis to date and Mr. Matheson
explained each of the charts. The plan showed a total of 40,609.5 hours required to manage the existing park system.
Next month, staff will show how existing resources are distributed within the plan and which maintenance activities are
not being addressed due to lack of resources.
HISTORICAL SOCIETY UPDATE
Ms. Schroder gave a brief report on the Historical Society and their use of the Fisher's Pond residence. In January,
Marty Lyon, Landscape Architect, was hired to prepare the pre-application with the Community Development
Department. On February 4, staff received a summary of the pre-application meeting regarding the requirements to
change the property to a park and interpreti ve center. Some of the requirements include conducting a survey of the site,
site improvements to 320th Street, if additional improvements are done to the house then improvements may also have
to be done on 7th Avenue S.W., the condition of the roof is poor and needs extensive repair (at a cost of approximately
$32,000). In addition, the house would need a new foundation, a second restroom would be required, and the greenhouse
structure would have to be removed. After looking at the potential costs and meeting with the Historical Society, Ms.
Schroder suggested possibly demolishing the house and consider allocating funds toward a pre-fabricated building. Ms.
Kochmar suggested the possibility of the Historical Society utilizing the mobile facility at French Lake Park. Her
understanding was that Lakehaven no longer wanted the mobile, although the HV AC system is at the end of its capacity
and the roof is failing, according to Ms. Lindell. Ms. Schroder will update the City Manager on this issue next week.
A written report will be presented in May.

Meeting Dialog and Public Comments:
Fred Beck, HB&B, explained how import the public process and involvement is to the
project especially if the city plans to go after any future lAC grants for the project.
He orientated the group to the site using the latest survey maps.
There was good public involvement at the meeting. The public asked questions and
voiced their comments and concerns.
The following questions were asked:
Q: "What is the jog in the property lines to the west and do you plan to build a road ?"
A: Possible street RO.W. , we need to check to see if it has been vacated or if it is still
RO.W.
Q: "What is the time and date for construction ?"
A: Our goal this year is the develop the park master plan with public input.
Q: 'What are the existing concrete slabs.?"
A: The slabs were part of the old Lutherland camp structures.
Comment: "These old slabs would'be good for picnic shelters or volleyball could be
played on the old slabs."
Q: 'What about using the existing trails in the park, the tiny trail are used for fishing
access?"
A: The survey map show the existing trail in the park and the trails could be enhanced
with wood mulch or gravel.
, Comment: "It would be nice to connect the trails to a boardwalk or raised area for
fishing, and wildlife interpretation."
"Let keep the park semi-developed to low amount of development and preserve the
natural open space."
Q: 'What about parking?" 'Will there be parking on site or will World Vision or the
church across the street be willing to let us use their parking lots for park user ?"
A: These are items the city will have to discuss with the neighbors. World Vision has
already express their concerns about letting the public use their property. World Vision
will follow up with a letter to the city.
Q: "Can the park be used as an outdoor education site for school groups ?"
A: This would be a great opportunity for school groups, another good example of this is
Dumas Bay Wildlife Sanctuary.
Q: "Can the name of the park be changed to Wildlife preserve?"

Q: "Does the survey report talk about the wildlife ?"
A: Yes, under the environmentally sensitive areas it talks about the fish and wildlife
habitat and animal species.
Q: "If the majority of the community doesn't want a large developed park or any
development will the city consider it ?"

Workshop Participation:
The public spent the remainder of the meeting talking to the city officials and the
consultants as they added suggestions to site maps that where located around the
council chambers.
The following are the suggestions the public marked on the maps:
.
.
No Motor Vehicles.
Parking for (6) cars next to World Vision.
South tip of park is a neighborhood "Party Place."
Reforestation plan.
Passive open space and preservation.
Keep picnic sites to be natural type e.g..logs and rocks placed in such a way that
are usable.
Neighborhood park concept sounds good!
Not a destination park.
Restrooms if necessary at park entrance near road. Solar type like state boat
access.
Garbage is a problem - visitors leave trash and don't pack out.
Install coated chain link fence on west property line.
Control night use and security,
No parking and no restrooms.
Fence set back 100' ft. from lake.
Plant irises along lake shore.
I encourage development of a few maintainable trails and restrooms.
Restrooms near park entrance and road.
The fishermen will go to the lake using the maintainable trails, this will reduce
erosion.
There must be trash can near main fishing areas.
I think you should keep the wildlife and as many of the plants as possible and
add some hiking trails.
Play area for kids.
Plant natural plants to remove grass down to lake.
Add fishing areas with small dock or platform.
Where do homeowners on the lake tie up if they row down to the park, without
encouraging ~ boat activity.
I would like to see this developed as habitat with interpretation center.
One restroom is OK near entrance.
Security of the site - how to control after hour users.

Meeting Dialog and Public Comments:
Mr. Beck, HB&B, reviewed and summarized the project to date and explained how
HB&B created Alternative Plan-A and Plan-B. Mr. Beck presented the two plan.
Alternative Plan-A is titled lake Killarney Wildlife Preserve and Alternative Plan-B is
titled lake Killarney Neighborhood Park. Mr. Beck continued to described the
difference between the two plans. Alternative A and B are based on public comment
and input from the first public meeting. The public participated in group discussions
and commented on the two plans. The second public meeting gave the community the
opportunity to select the plan they preferred for the lake Killarney site.
There was good public involvement at the meeting. The public asked questions and
voiced their comments and concerns.
Mr. Beck presented a summary of the site evaluation completed by Urban Forestry
Services Inc. The summary is as follows:
The Urban Forestry Services Inc., completed the site evaluation and identified the
significant and potentially hazardous trees on site. The Urban Forestry Services
described the ten acres of park land to be a rich diversity of Pacific Northwest native
trees, shrubs and ground covers with a few remnant old growth Douglas-fir trees.
Overall the trees and associated plants are healthy with the exception of root rot
evidence in the middle of the western property line. Caution and annual inspection in
the area is recommended after creating snags of those few trees found to be a high risk
of failure.
The following questions were asked:
Q: 'The point is nice area for swimming?"
A: The point is proposed as a demonstration garden with restoration, board walk and
boat access.
Q: 'What about restrooms, garbage on plan - A?"
A: The park would have a restroom facility close to the parking area for easy access fo~
maintenance and there will be trash receptacles located in the park.
Mr. Beck, HB&B, proceeded to described the difference between Alternative A and B:
Plan - A, lake KillarneyWildlife Preserve
Plan-A, A paved park entrance would be off Weyehauser Way, with 5-6 parking stalls,
small restroom facility. From the parking lot, a view point looking out across the open
meadow with the lake in the background. Play structures, tables and benches would be
constructed with the timbers that would have to be cut down in the park, giving the park
a more natural appearance and theme. The park trail system would support
maintenance and emergency vehicles. The park would allow school groups to walk
along the trails and boardwalks, using the interpretation signs in the parks describing
the wetlands, forest, and wildlife in this outdoor classroom. The main trails would ADA
accessible. The boardwalk would be constructed with a post and rail system.
The boardwalk trail would be able to go into the wetland boundary area and along the
shoreline. Mr. Beck indicated that the green area on the plan is the forest area, which
would remain untouch. The lighter areas are the meadows with windflowers, bordered
with native plants. Mr. Beck went on to described the flood areas and pointed out the
area of shoreline that could introduce some of the demonstration gardens
recommended by the King County Surface water Management, Plant Aquatics Plan for
lake Killarney.
Plan - 8, lake Killarney Neighborhood Park
Plan-B, A paved park entrance would also come off Weyehauser Way, with 5-6 parking
stalls, small restroom facility. From the parking lot, you would still see the view point
looking out across a large more maintained grass field, with the lake in the background.
Play structures, tables and benches would be constructed with more of the traditional
park material sold by the industry. The park trail system would support maintenance
and emergency vehicles. The park would allow park users to walk along the trails and
boardwalks. Trails would ADA accessible. The boardwalk would be constructed with a
post and rail system. At this time no interpretation signs would be posted along the
trails.
At the lake's edge, two - three Piers could be constructed for fishing and small boat to
tie up to. An informal swimming area could be possible at the "point", which is located
in the southwest section of the park's shoreline.
Several picnic sites would be placed in the park using the traditional aluminum tables.
The public made the following comments at the meeting:
.
"I would like to see chain link fencing between the park and the Feroy Property."
Mr. and Mrs Harris.
"'like Plan A, Federal Way has an opportunity to preseNe nature trails because
we are at the beginning of our community development" I am concerned that
immediate neighbors would prefer a private preseNe and we need to keep the
public in mind."
"I'm very much in favor of Alternative A. Please preseNe the ecology." Please
keep park maintenance staff strong well-funded. They do great work land its
great that they do so without chemicals." "It's important to educate fisherman to
keep area free of fishing lines, beer bottles and other debris." law enforcement
is vital and frequent monitoring of the area would be great" "Thanks for a good
set of ideas," Liz Marshall.
"for the people who don't live on the lake can't enjoy the lake until you your park
is developed." "'like to fish, Plan B is better." Plan B has a couple of docks,
grass meadow, I think your parking plan is just right!" "Don't like Plan A, there is
no place to fish or swim." "I'm concerned for the people that don't live on the.
lake that would like Plan B." "The people who live on the lake don't need it
because they have that access already." "You keep all the other parks clean, I
think Plan B is a great Idea!" "Think there should be small area for row boats to
go in, would like to see basketball court if feasible." Would like to have
swimming areas, if more people on the out skirts of the lake knew of your project
they would all be happy about Plan B." "People who live on the lake don't
probably want your park, please pay attention to people who don't live on the
lake! Advertise!!"
"I definitely prefer Plan A over Plan B." 1-Park needs to be fenced. 2-lf play
ground equipment is put in - what provisions will be made to keep kids out of the
sensitive areas and wetlands?" 3-Public leaves a lot of trash around lake at
present time." "How will you discourage this?"
"I like alternative A best" Alternative B will attract more people in my opinion,
therefor the 6-7 parking spots are not likely to be enough." Also the traditional
swimming, fishing and canoeing activities are probably going to continue whether
they are provided for or not, so we might as well provide for them. I don't think
the play ground area is appropriate for the site." I would like to see the "point" by
the osprey roost, left as is - no restoration of plants," Keep it as a clear area."
"Park area for the people." "More people in area, potential fire hazard... I put a

Subject:
Sani-Can Services
Background:
Able Spiffy Biffy has been the sani-can vendor for Park Operations since May of 1996. The contract
for sani-can services expired April 30, 1998. Due to the present work load, I recommend postponing
rebidding of the contract until November 1998. This would provide a better transitional time of the
year in the event a different vendor is awarded the bid. This amendment will increase the current
contract by $11,000, for a total of $33,000. City policy requires City Council approval of purchases
over $20,000.
Committee Recommendation:
Motion to amend the current contract with Able Spiffy Biffy by increasing the compensation $11,000
and extending the term to December 31,1998.

CITY COUNCIL PARKS, RECREATION, HUMAN SERVICES AND
PUBLIC SAFETY COMMITTEE
Date:
May 14, 1998
Patricia Talton, CDBG Coordinator v:
From:
Subject:
Request to King County CDBG Consortium/Recapture of 1998 Funds
Background:
In 1998, the City of Federal Way allocated $18,989 in Community Development Block Grant (CDBG)
funds to Easter Seal Society of Washington for the program, Housing Modificationsfor People with
Disabilities. This program assists low- and moderate-income homeowners and renters with housing
modifications to accommodate ADA needs. For example, a home or apartment may be modified to
accommodate a wheelchair by installing shower grab bars, lowering of light switches and widening of
doors.
In March of this year, the Easter Seal Society informed all its funders of the closure of this program.
The agency cited funding patterns, increased challenges of subcontracting, and internal program
performance as factors in the decision. As a result, King County Housing and Community
Development Program staff is in the process of developing a "replacement" program. King County will
develop a program that will serve this client population in the same manner, and potentially utilize the
funds that have already been allocated by participating jurisdictions. The $18,989 in Federal Way
CDBG funds would be transferred to the County's program, once all the necessary logistics are
completed. However, a timeline has not been established by King County.
Options:
The City has the option of making a written request to King County to recapture these funds or to allow
King County to utilize the funding for a replacement program. Council approval is required by the u.s.
Department of Housing and Urban Development regarding a request to recapture these funds. The City
must provide an opportunity for citizen comment on the use of CDBG funds. Below are Council
options with advantages and disadvantages of each and a staff recommendation.
1) Make a formal request to King County to have the funds recaptured. A memo would be
drafted by staff for City Council approval which would request that $18,989 in 1998 Federal
Way CDBG funds allocated to Easter Seal Society of Washington be returned to the city.
Additionally, the city would like to see those funds included in its 1999 CDBG funding estimate
which will be revised in July.
The advantage of this option is that the city would have more funds available to allocate in the 1999
CDBG funding process. The city has received $914,750 in capital funding requests for 1999, with
$400,642 available to allocate. The 1998 funds allocated to Easter Seal Society are capital funds and
could be allocated to another agency or capital project. Given the time involved in program
development and contracting, it is conceivable that the replacement program would not complete any
housing modifications in 1998. This would result in those funds being carried over to the 1999 program
year, which would be the same result if they were recaptured and allocated to another agency.
The disadvantage of this option is that a special population of Federal Way residents may not receive
needed assistance in 1998 or 1999. However, the city could consider funding the County's replacement
program in the year 2000 when the program would be fully operational.
2) Proceed with King County's process to develop a replacement program and allow the
$18,989 to be used for the intended purpose, which is to serve low- and moderate-income
seniors and disabled in need of housing modifications.
The advantage of this option is that senior and disabled Federal Way residents may be assisted with
critical housing modifications potentially in 1998 and definitely in 1999.
A disadvantage to both options is that less clients will be served in 1998 and potentially 1999, due to
the time involved in program development.
Committee Recommendation:
1) Approve the request to recapture 1998 CDBG funds allocated to Easter Seal Society of Washington
and the inclusion of those recaptured funds in the 1999 CDBG funding estimate as outlined above.
Additionally, consider funding King County's housing modification program once it is fully operational.
2) Approve the request to recapture 1998 CDBG funds allocated to Easter Seal Society of Washington
with modifications to the options as specified by the Committee.
3) Proceed with the King County process to develop a replacement program which would serve low-
and moderate-income seniors and disabled with housing modifications.
