COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT PLANNING DIVISION
Land Use Designation — The subject property is within the Community Business (BC) zone. The
auto 3aarts retail store is considered other retail not It". 4,yr* "-
if the Director of Community Development determines that the characteristics and impacts of the use
are similar to other listed uses. The proposed auto parts retailer is similar to other general and
specialty retail sales and is permitted in the BC zoning district subject to regulations set forth in
FWRC 19.220.010.
2. Land Use Application — The proposed improvements will require a Process 11 Master Land Use
application. Process 11 is an administrative site plan review conducted by city staff with a fmal
decision issued by the Director of Community Development.
The subject property is comprised of two tax parcels. Six parking stalls, driveway access, and
possible detention facilities will be located on a separate parcel from the building. As such, a
reciprocal access, maintenance, and shared parking agreement/easement will need to be recorded
against the property to allow access if the property were to be sold to a separate entity. The
agreement/easement must be submitted to the city for review and approval prior to recording.
In lieu of the access/maintenance easement above, the applicant may choose to submit a Boundary
ema
lot boundaries on existing lots. Pursuant to FWRC Chapter 18. 10 "Boundary Line Adjustments,"
BLA applications are administratively processed. See enclosed is handout for submittal
requirements.
9. Environmental Review — As proposed, the project is exempt from review under the State —
Environmental Policy Act (SEPA) as the proposal does not exceed flexible thresholds (buildings
larger than 12,000 square feet, parking for 40 or more vehicles).
4. Application Fees —The formal application must be prepared in accordance with the City's
Development Requirements checklist (enclosed) and must be accompanied by the appropriate fees.
As fees change annually, please contact Development Specialist staff for the current application fees

reached at 253-835-2607 or penniteenter@cityoffederalway.com.
5. Key Development Regulations — FWRC 19.220.010, Officehretail, provides specific design and use
requirements for the proposed retail building. The formal site plan must include the following:
a. Required Setback and Lot Coverage — There are zero required setback requirements from the
north, south, and west property lines. The east property line is adjacent to a Multi -family
Residential (RM3600) zone and requires a 2Q-foot .setback. No maximum lot coverage applies.
The buildable area will be determined by other requirements for landscaping, required yards,
surface water facilities, etc.
b. Building Height - The allowed height for a retail building is 30 feet above average building
elevation ( E) since it is located within 100 ft. of a residential zone. As proposed, the project
meets this requirement. Elevations will need to be submitted with the Process II submittal to
verify building height.
c. Parking— Parking requirements from the BC zone use chart are 1 parking stall for each 300
square feet of gross floor area for the retail use. As proposed, the 6,912 sq. ft. auto parts retail
alls.
• FWRC 19.115.050(1) Pedestrian areas and amenities should be incorporated in the overall site
design. Pedestrian areas include but are not limited to outdoor plazas, arcades, courtyards, seating
areas, and amphitheaters. Pedestrian amenities include but are not limited to outdoor benches,
tables and other fumiture, balconies, gazebos, transparent glass at the ground floor, and
landscaping.
• FWRC 19.115.050(4) Pedestrian pathways from rights -of -way and bus stops to primary
entrances, from parking lots to primary entrances, and pedestrian areas, shall be accessible and
should be clearly delineated. At a minimum, a pathway should: be provided to connect the ina n
building entrance, and Pacific Divvy South. Pedestrian pathways and pedestrian areas should be,
delineated by separate paved routes using a variation in paved texture and color, and protected
from abutting vehicle circulation areas with landscaping. Approved methods of delineation
include: stone, brick or granite pavers; exposed aggr-egate,;or stamped and colored concrete. Paint
striping on asphalt as a method of delineation is not encouraged. Bicycle racks should be
provided for all commercial developments.
FWRC 19.115 060 Building facades that are both longer than 60 feet and visible from either a
right-of-way or residential use or zone shall incorporate at least two of the four following options
for modulating and/or screening:
Ms. Parker
Page 4
May 4, 2015
• Fagade Modulation — A minimum depth of two feet, minimum width of six feet, and
maximum width of 60 feet. Alternative methods to shape a building such as angled or curved
fagade elements, offset planes, wing walls, and terracing will be considered, provided that the
intent of the section is met.
• Landscape Screening — Eight -foot -wide Type 11 landscape screening along the base of the
fagade, except Type IV may be used in place of Type 11 for facades that are comprised of 50
percent or more window area, and around building entrances.
• Canopy or,4rcade — Minimum length is 50 percent of the length of the fagade using this
option. Canopy must extend a minimum of six feet outward from the building with at least 10
feet of clearance as shown below.
• Pedestrian Plaza — Plaza square footage is equal to one percent of the gross floor area of the
building, but it must be a minimum of 200 square feet. If this treatment is chosen, the plaza
should be clearly visible and accessible from South 348 1h Street.
The above -referenced "two of four" options shall be incorporated along the entire length o
the fagade, in any approved combination. Options used must meet the dimensional stand r
as sr I"
%ecified above. but if more than two are used,
may be modified.
Additionally, building facades visible from rights -of -way (north, south, and west facade)
must include articulation and scale requirements of FWRC 19.115.060(3). As such, the
materials variation that create a sense of architectural articulation, and reduce the scale of the
structure. Please refer to the list of methods to articulate blank walls identified in FViTRC
19.115.060(3)(b).
FWRC 19.115.090(l)(b) Entrance facades shall front on, face, or be clearly recognizable from the
right-of-way and must incorporate windows and other methods of articulation.
FWRC 19.115.090(l)(c) Building entrances shall be architecturally emphasized and shall
incorporate transparent glass.
FTVRC 19.115.090(l)(d) Ground floor entrances to retail sales or services shall incorporate plaza
features or furnishings, and/or streetscape amenities, in a context -sensitive amount and
combination, considering the scale of the retail use and entrance to the overall building.
7. Crime Prevention through Environmental Design (CPTED) — FWRC 19.115.010(2) CPTED,
requires minimum standards for design review to reduce the rate of crime associated with persons and
ZD
property, thus providing for the highest standards of public safety. CPTED principles are: 1) natural
surveillance; 2) access control; and 3) ownership. The CPTED checklist (enclosed) must be
completed and submitted with the formal application, and CPTED principles should be incorporated
into the project as applicable.
8. Landscaping — The Process 11 application must include a preliminary landscape plan prepared by a
licensed landscape architect in accordance with the landscape requirements contained in FWRC
Chapter 19.125 "Outdoors, Yards, and Landscaping. " Following are the key landscape requirements
for the project.

Perimeter Landscape Buffers — FVvTRC 19.125.060(6) Community Business, BC, requires a
minimum of Type III landscaping five feet in width along all perimeter lot lines, except that
landscaping is not required along perimeter lot lines abutting rights -of -way, where there are no
required yards. The effect is that perimeter landscaping is required along the north property line.
Type I landscaping 15 feet in width is required along the east property line that abuts the RM3604
zone. The existing landscaping on the east side may be adequate. If not, supplemental plantings
will be required to meet Type I landscaping standards.
FWRC 19.125.070(5) requires parking areas to be screened with either a three -foot -tall berm
installed within the pedmeter landscaping buffer, Architectural features, or substantial plantings

Type III landscaping consists of a mixture of evergreen and deciduous trees, large shrubs a
minimum of 24 inches in height at the time of planting, and groundcover; spaced to provide a
visual buffer creating a partial visual separation.
Type I landscaping consists of evergreen trees, large shrubs and UOUDdeover, which will provide
a 100 percent sight -obscuring screen within three years from the time of planting; or a
combination of approximately 75 percent evergreen and 25 percent deciduous trees, with an
allowable five percent variance, with large shrubs, and groundcover backed by a 100 percent
sight -obscuring fence.
interiI r Parking Lot Landscaping — Parking lot landscaping is to break up large areas of
impervious surfaces, mitigate adverse impacts created by vehicle use areas, facilitate the
movement of traffic, and improve the physical appearance of vehicle use areas. Twenty square
feet of interior lot landscaping per parking space must be provided in accordance with FNVRC
19.125.070. Type TV parking lot landscaping is required to be installed at the ends of all rows of
parking and disbursed throughout the interior parking area. Landscape islands must be a
minimum size of 64 square feet and a width of six feet between stalls and at the ends of rows.
The square footage of interior lot landscaping must be listed on the landscape plan, and the
interior landscape areas used for this calculation must be identified on the plan. Permanent
curbing shall be provided in all landscape areas within or abutting parking areas ' Based upon
appropriate surface water considerations, other structural barriers may be substituted for curbing,
such as concrete wheel stops.
9, Clearing, Grading, m
and Tree and Vegetation Retention — The applicant is required to obtain
clearing and grading plan approval as a coponent of the land use approval. Please consult FWRC
19.120.040(l) for items that are required to be included on the plan. Approval and Notice to Pr , oceed
shall be required prior to commencing clearing and grading activities on the site. Reference F)VVRC
19.120.060(2).
A tree and vegetation retention plan as required under FVVkC 19.120.140(2) must also be submitted
with the land use application. The tree and vegetation retention/replacement plan must be prepared by
a certified arborist or certified landscape architect. The standards require each development to it
maintain a minimum tree unit density. The mminium tree density in the BC zone is 20 tree un s per
acre. The subject property's density would be 26 tree units (20 tree units x 1.27 acres). A tree unit is a
value assigned to existing trees retained on the property or replacement trees. The larger the tree, the

The tree and vegetation plan must clearly show where the 26 tree units are to be located. The formal
landscape plan must detail information about tree unit credits and replacement.
10. Garbage/Recycling —The design of the enclosure area should be consistent with the architectural
design of the primary structures on the site. The enclosure shall be screened from abutting properties
by a 100 percent sight -obscuring fence or wall and appropriate landscape screen. Additionally, a
minimum of five square feet of recycling storage space, with a maximum of 1,000 square feet for
every 1,000 square feet gross floor area, with a minimum of 65 square feet, must be provided. Please
refer to RC 19.125.150 for additional requirements.
11. Signage — See FWRC 19.140 for specifies about sign requirements. Separate sign permits will be
required.

In addition to the KCSWDM, our review suggests that FWRC Section 19.30.120, "Nonconforming
Water Quality Improvements" applies to this site. Specifically, the following items are applicable:
I.b. Redevelopment which involves the construction or replacement of a building footprint or other
structure having a surface area of 5,000 square feet or more, or which involves the expansion of a
building footprint or other structure by 5,000 square feet of surface area or more;
Le. Redevelopment which involves the repair or replacement of 5,000 square feet or more of an
impervious surface, when such redevelopment is not part of a routine maintenance activity;
Therefore, water quality treatment will be required for the entire site, including new and existing
pollution generating impervjous�surfiaecs. The prejectlies within An Enhanced BOe Water Quality

Street Frontage Improvements C 19.5)
I . Based on the available records and the submitted materials, it appears that this proposal meets the 25
percent threshold criteria for requiring street frontage improvements as identified in the FWRC
19.135.030. The applicant/owner may submit an appraisal for the subject property, or King County
Assessor's records may be used. The Public Works Development Services Division will evaluate the
submitted appraisal data to determine if the project actually meets the City's 25 percent threshold for
requiring street frontage improvements.
2. The applicant/owner would be expected to construct street improvements consistent with the planned
roadway cross -sections as shown in MapIII-6 of the FWCP and Capital Improvement Program (CI)
shown as Table III-19 (FWRC 19.135.040). Based on the materials submitted, staff conducted a
limited analysis to determine the required street improvements. The applicant would be expected to
construct improvements on the following streets to the City's planned roadway cross -sections:
S-99 is a Principal Arterial planned as a Type "A" street, consisting of a 90-foot street
with curb and gutter, six-foot planter strips with street trees, 8-foot sidewalks, and street
lights in a 124-foot right-of-way (ROW). This cross-section has been fully constructed
along the site frontage; therefore, no further ROW dedication or street improvements are
required.
S 336`h Street is a Minor Arterial planned as a Type "G" street, consisting of a 66-foot
street with curb and gutter, 6-foot planter strips with street trees and streetlights, 8-foot
sidewalks and a utility strip in a 100-foot right-of-way (ROW). Assuming a symmetrical
cross section, 7-foot ROW dedication and half -street improvements are required as
measured from the street centerline.
3. The applicant may make a written request to the Public Works Director to modify, defer, or waive the
required street improvements (FC 19.135.070). Info ation about right-of-way modification
requests is available through e Public Works Development Services Division. These modification
requests have a nominal review fee currently at $105.50.

Sewer
a The site has one (1) existing sewer service connection (SSCP 10539, copy enclosed).
Capping of any existing sewer service connection at/near property line is required for any on -site full
building demolition; a sewer service connection permit (SSCP) from Lakehaven is required for this
(application form enclosed).
A separate Lakehaven sewer service connection permit is required for each new connection to the
sanitary sewer system, in accordance with standards defined in Lakehaven's current 'Fees and
Chit es; Resolution'. Minimn
all other sewer service installation standards, installation of a Type 1, 48" monitoring manhole is
typically required on the private build ' ing sewer line, for all new or modified non-residential
connections. A modification request for the typical monitoring manhole requirement can be submitted
to Lakehaven separately or with application for service.
Based on the proposal submitted (and presuming no significant change in historical domestic water
usage patterns for the site), preliminary estimated Lakehaven sewer service connection
fees/charges/deposits (2015 schedule) will be as follows. Actual connection charges will be
determined upon submittal of service connection application(s) to Lakehaven. All Lakehaven fees,
charges and deposits are typically reviewed & adjusted (if necessary) annually, and are subject to
change without notice.
• Sewer Service Connection Permit Fees (2): $720.00 ($360 each, demolition -disconnect & re-
CORDeCt).
• Capital Facilities Charge(s)-Sewer: $0.00. Sewer system capacity credits are available for this
property from system capacity charges previously assessed, paid directly to Lakehaven, and/or
credited to the property for 8.26 ERU. Please contact Lakehaven for further detail.
• Other (describe): $<None anticipated>.
