RE: Permit #00-105480-000-00-SM; GUGGENBICKLER
368XX 6th Avenue SW; Right of Way Modification
Dear Mr. Guggenbickler:
(253) 661-4000
Federal Way, WA 98063-9718
This letter responds to your request to waive the required street improvements along 6th Avenue SW
and SW 3691h Street associated with your proposed development.
After evaluating the existing conditions along 61h Avenue SW and SW 369th Street, review of Federal
Way City Code (FWCC) provisions (Sections 22-1496, 22-1477 and 22-1524), and the direction
provided by the City Council, the Public Works Department hereby modifies the requirements for
street improvements applicable to your permit application, as discussed below.
FWCC Section 22-1477 Modification of Improvements Along Property Frontage: This code section
allows the Public Works Director to grant a request to modify, defer, or waive the required street
improvements only after consideration of four specific reasons. The reason most applicable here is
contained in FWCC 22-1477:
(1) Improvement as required would not be harmonious with existing street improvements.
The access road is classified as a local access street corresponding to Federal Way Roadway Section
"V." This roadway section requires a 24-foot-wide paved street with an eight -foot ditch section, a
five-foot concrete sidewalk, and a three-foot utility strip all within a 56-foot right of way.
Application of the required street improvements would result in an improved roadway section that is
not harmonious with existing street improvements, which consist of twelve -foot gravel roads and no
sidewalks, within an 80-foot right of way.
As a result, t e required street improvements are modified to include constructing 6th Avenue SW
and S Street along your frontage to a 20-foot paved road, a ditch section sized to convey the
25-year storm, a five-foot gravel walk, and a three-foot utility strip centered within the 80-foot right
of way. A professional engineer registered in the State of Washington must design road
improvements.
In addition to the above, the applicant is required to execute a "No Protest" Local Improvement
District (LID) covenant in the event that a future LID is formed to make street improvements. A
copy of the LID agreement will be prepared for the owner's signature and must be notarized and
returned to the City with a $9.00 check for recording fees made payable to King County Records and
Elections, prior to issuance of a building permit.
The conditions of this right of way modification will be applicable for one year from the date of this
letter. If a building permit is not issued within the one-year time limit, the right of way modification
will be void and a new request for modification must be submitted.
If you have any questions, call Jim Femling, Senior Engineering Plans Reviewer, at (253) 661-4196.
Sincerely,
Ken Miller, P.E.
