15-102324Jim Ferrell, Mayor Mr. Brad McElroy Christ the King Bible Fellowship 35448 11 th Avenue SW Federal Way, WA 98023 Re: File #15-102324-00-AD ADMINISTRATIVE DECISION Christ the King Bible Fellowship, 35448 11th Avenue SW PILE The city is in receipt of your May 14, 2015, request letter for a driveway addition. The request is to add a second driveway to the Christ the King Bible Fellowship parking lot located at 35448 111h Avenue SW (King County parcel #3021049006), which is zoned RS 7.2 (Single Family Residential). You indicated that you will be adding a second driveway to the parking lot to facilitate traffic in and out of the parking lot by minimizing congestion and improving the directional flow. The site plan that was submitted shows many more parking stalls and other site improvemeats� than exist on the site. In response to our questions, you indicated that only one large tree would be removed in addition to brush and smaller scrub trees under 6 inches in diameter, and that none of the existing 70 parking stalls will be eliminated. rwased upon the submitted materials, it is unclear where the new driveway will connect to the existing parking lot and how the existing stall(s) and drive aisle(s) may be altered to access/accommodate it. You will need to provide a site plan that accurately shows existing site improvements and proposed changes. Federal Wray Revised Code (FWRC) 19.15.030 requires approval of a Process I application to make such improvements. Please submit a completed Process I application (application form and informational handout enclosed) and fee to the city's Permit Center. For reference, FWRC 19.15.030 addresses revicur processes for improvements to developed sites as follows: "19.15.030 Review processes for improvements and additions to developed sites. Improvements and/or additions to existing developed sites, except critical area intrusions as regulated by Division V of this title, shall be subject to land use review processes as follows: (1) or improvements, modifications and additions. Minor improvements, modifications and additions to a site such as parking lot and landscape area modifications and improvements, and/or additions to an existing developed site that are exempt from SEPA shall be processed using process 1, provided the improvements and/or additions do not exceed either of the following thresholds: (a) Twenty-five percent of the gross floor area of the existing use; or (b) Two thousand square feet of new gross floor area." 33325 8th Avenue South, Federal Way, WA 98003-6325 o (253) 835-7000 - www.cityoffederalway.com Mr. Brad McElroy Page 2 June 2, 2015 With regard to tree removal, properties located in the Single Family Residential zoning designation are required to provide 25 tree is per acre. Please review and complete the enclosed tree calculation worksheet and sub mitwith the Process I application. The site may already satisfy or exceed the minimum number of required tree units; however, tl-.tis must be verified and replanting required for the tree to be removed if that is not the case. is= A Stacey Welsh, AICP Senior Planner enc: Master Land Use Application Submittal Requirements for Process I Tree Calculation Worksheet Right -of -Way Permit Application C: Ann Dower, Development Services Erik Preston, Traffic File #13-I02324-00-AD Doc.
