LD. 61162 CITY OF •�� Federal Way Exhibit A F 1I,� Findings for Project Approval Federal Way Revised Code (FWRC) Chapter 19.65 `Process III Project Approval' AT&T Mobility SS19 - Mirror Lake, File 12-101418-00-UP The Planning Division hereby presents the following analysis to the Director of Community and Economic Development pursuant to content requirements of the Process III written decision as set forth in Federal Way Revised Code (FWRC) 19.65.100(4). Proposal — The applicant proposes to modify an existing Personal Wireless Service Facility (PWSF) by replacing two existing antennas with two new antennas and adding one LTE antenna on an existing 150-foot monopole; no additional height is to be added. The proposal also includes ground equipment upgrades within the existing fenced -in equipment shelter area. The proposed modification is part of AT&T's network implementation plan to provide 4G LTE coverage in the Federal Way area to better serve customers. 2. Site Conditions — The PWSF is located on an existing monopole and the ground equipment is to be located in an existing fenced area on lands owned by South King Fire & Rescue, 31617 1"' Avenue South, Federal Way. 3. Comprehensive Plan and Zoning — The City's Comprehensive Plan designation is High Density Residential and the zoning is Single Family Residential (RS9.6). PWSFs are permitted in the RS zone pursuant to FWRC 19.200.190. 4. Review Process — The replacement and addition of antennas to the existing PWSF is not exempt from State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA) review and is subject to Process III `Project Approval' review. State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA) — The proposal is not exempt from environmental review pursuant to Washington Administrative Code 197-11-800(25)(a)(iii). The city utilized the Optional DNS process as allowed by SEPA Rules. A combined Notice of Application and Optional Determination of Nonsignificance was issued April 20, 2012. No comments were received during the integrated comment period. The city's Responsible Official issued a Determination of Nonsignificance May 15, 2012. The threshold determination appeal period ended May 29, 2012, with no appeals submitted to the Federal Way City Clerk. Public Notice — Pursuant to Process III and SEPA regulations, a Notice of Land Use Application and Optional DNS were published in the Federal Way Mirror, posted at two locations at the subject site, and displayed on the designated city notice boards on April 20, 2012. Notices were also mailed to property owners within 300 feet of the subject property. No comments were received on the land use application or SEPA DNS notice. 7. Prioritized Locations — The applicant proposes to locate the PWSF on "Existing broadcast, relay and transmission towers," which is the second priority location of the five prescribed in FWRC 19.255.010(4). Higher prioritized location, Structures located in the BPA trail, is not feasible as this proposal is an upgrade to an existing facility. There are no alternative BPA towers in the proposed vicinity. Staff finds the applicant has met the burden to utilize the second prioritized location. The replacement of two antennas and addition of an LTE antenna should provide the full benefit of service to the area. 8. PWSF Development Standards — PWSFs located on existing structures shall meet development standards prescribed in FWRC 19.255.020(1). The following are staff responses to each criterion: a. (ii) The PWSF exceeds the minor facility thresholds for number of antennas and size, but creates no more adverse impacts than a minor facility. Based on site photos and detailed drawings, the proposed addition will be installed in the same manner as the previously approved antennas and the visual impact will be unchanged. b. The combined antennas will not exceed 15 feet above the existing structure. The monopole is 150 feet tall; the new antenna will be placed below the existing array; no additional height is proposed. c. This section does not apply as the proposed PWSF is not in a right-of-way. d. The proposed antennas will be painted to match existing tower. The impacts to surrounding uses will be no greater than the existing facility. e. The proposed size and number of the PWSF is necessary to meet coverage objectives as depicted in the project narrative provided by applicant. f. The proposed ground equipment will be added to an existing fenced lease area. The footprint of the facility will not be enlarged and will meet the setback requirements originally approved in 2004. 9. Screening Standards — PWSFs are required to be screened using best available technology and design. The proposed antennas will be screened and painted to match the existing antennas. These measures appropriately mitigate visual impacts of the facility, cause no adverse cumulative effects, and meet aesthetic standards set forth in FWRC 19.255.020(1)(d). 10. Electronics Equipment Standards —Applicant proposes to upgrade the existing equipment enclosure with ancillary equipment. Proposed upgrades will occur within enclosure and no material expansions or changes to the architectural design of the enclosure are proposed. Therefore, these changes are exempt from PWSF standards set forth in FWRC Chapter 19.255 and are permitted outright with no further regulatory action required pursuant to FWRC 19.255.010(3)(g). 11. Security Screening — The PWSF includes existing structure and fencing; no new fencing or expansion of existing fencing is proposed. 12. Cumulative Effects — The city must consider the cumulative visual effects of the PWSF mounted on an existing structure in determining whether additional permits may be granted so as to not adversely affect the visual character of the city. Based on the plans and photo -simulations of the proposed modifications, the PWSF will not adversely affect the visual character of the city. The additional antennas will be camouflaged through best available technology and design and will have less of an impact than creating a new PWSF site. 13. Conditions of Approval — The following conditions of approval shall be a component of the Process III land use decision: ■ Prior to any site work, the applicant shall obtain an electrical permit from the city's Department of Community and Economic Development. 14. Process III Decision Criteria — Based on the above findings, staff has determined the proposal is consistent with applicable site plan approval criteria required for Process III `Project Approval' Findings for Project Approval Page 2 AT&T Mobility SS 19 - Mirror Lake, File 12-101418-00-UP/Doc. LD. 61059 pursuant to the following FWRC 19.65.100(2) items. Staff responses (italicized) follow each criterion: a. It is consistent with the comprehensive plan; The proposal is consistent with the following FWCP goals and policies: PUG1— Work with private utility companies to allow them to provide full and timely service that meets the needs of the city's residents and businesses, both present and future. PUG2 — Work with private utility companies to allow them to provide service in a way that balances cost-effectiveness with environmental protection, aesthetic impact, public safety, and public health. PUP17 — The city should require that site specific utilityfacilities such as antennas and substations be reasonably and appropriately sited and screened to mitigate adverse aesthetic impacts. b. It is consistent with all applicable provisions of this title; The site plan has been reviewed under FWRC Title 19, "Zoning and Development Code, " with specific attention to the following divisions and/or chapters: Division I, Administration; Chapter 19.65, Process III Project Approval; Chapter 19.200, Single Family Residential (RS); and Chapter 19.255, Personal Wireless Service Facilities. c. It is consistent with the public health, safety, and welfare; No adverse impacts are anticipated as a result of the proposal. The PWSF has received approval from Lakehaven Utility District. The Process III MLU application has been reviewed under SEPA, FWCP, and applicable provisions of the FWRC. d. The streets and utilities in the area of the subject property are adequate to serve the anticipated demand from the proposal; The city's Traffic Division has determined the PWSF will not require concurrency review and will not adversely affect the current level of service. The Lakehaven Utility District has determined no sewer or water improvements are required for the PWSF. e. The proposed access to the subject property is at the optimal location and configuration; The facility is an existing site and no changes are proposed to the access points to the facility. f. Traffic safety impacts for all modes of transportation, both on or offsite, are adequately mitigated. As the facility is unmanned, this criterion is not applicable. These findings shall not waive compliance with future City of Federal Way codes, policies, and standards relating to this development.

An environmental impact statement (EIS) must be prepared for all proposals with probable significant adverse impacts on the quality of the environment. The purpose of this checklist is to provide information to help you and the agency identify impacts from your proposal (and to reduce or avoid impacts from the proposal, if it can be done) and to help the agency decide whether an EIS is required. INSTRUCTIONS FOR APPLICANTS This environmental checklist asks you to describe some basic information about our proposal. Governmental agencies use this checklist to determine whether the environmental impacts of your proposal are significant, requiring preparation of an EIS. Answer the questions briefly, with the most precise information known, or give the best description you can. You must answer each question accurately and carefully, to the best of your knowledge. In most cases, you should be able to answer the questions from your own observations or project plans without the need to hire experts. If you do not know the answer, or if a question does not apply to your proposal, write "do not know" or "does not apply." Complete answers to questions now may avoid unnecessary delays later. Some questions ask about governmental regulations, such as zoning, shoreline, and landmark designations. Answer these questions if you can. If you have problems, the governmental agencies can assist you. The checklist questions apply to all parts of your proposal, even if you plan to do them over a period of time or on different parcels of land. Attach any additional information that will help describe your proposal or its environmental effects. The agency to which you submit this checklist may ask you to explain your answers or provide additional information reasonably related to determining if there may be significant adverse impact. USE OF CHECKLIST FOR NON -PROJECT PROPOSALS Complete this checklist for non -project proposals, even though questions maybe answered "does not apply." In addition, complete the Supplemental Sheet for Non-Proj Actions. For non -project actions, the references in the checklist to the words ` roject," "applicant," and "property or site" should be read as "proposal," "proposer," and "affected geo4 aphic area," respectively.

The proposed modification consists of the removal of (2) existing antennas and replacing with (2) new antennas, adding (1) LTE antenna, and ancillary equipment. No height increase proposed. Proposed modifications do not change the use of the existing tower. There is no reduction, material change or adverse impact to landscaping, parking, utilities, approved architectural design, or environmentally critical areas as defined by FWRC 19.145. ANALYSIS OF STEALTH SCREENING FOR PROPOSED FACILITY PER FWRC 19.225.020 4 . The modification will not result in a change in visual impact, and is part of a technology upgrade being performed on AT&T/New Cingular Wireless's network, in order to improve service to its customers and strengthen reliability and capacity in its network. No height increase is proposed. Pursuant to FWRC 19.255.020(20, PWSFs shall be screened or camouflaged through employing the best available technology and design. As proposed, the antennas are not overtly obtrusive. The proposed antennas will be painted to match the existing. The proposed equipment additions are exempt and no review is required as there are no material area expansion of the equipment area. Per the pre -application conference summary (#12-100538-00-PC), the submitted site plans do not need to depict existing landscaping around the existing enclosures. This is an existing wireless telecommunications facility located at the address referenced above. AT&T proposes to amend the facility to keep up with the demand while continuing to offer customers in the area quality service and access to greater and more advanced wireless services. The proposed change would add 4G technology to the site and would expand AT&T's 4G network footprint into and the immediate surrounding area. This proposed change would improve the on -street and in -car availability of 4G services (voice and data support for iPhone 4G phones for example) and would add in -building 4G services in the immediate vicinity of the site. Our current volume and payload data on this site shows a high amount of 3G data traffic. The new 4G technology will improve the overall internet/data experience of the customers in the area. This will mean faster data rate and higher efficiency. The proposed modification is part of an integrated network and if it is located too far or too close to an adjacent facility the network will not work. The location of the site was picked because it is an existing facility. The proposed modification is part of AT&T's network implementation plan to provide 4G LTE coverage in the Federal Way area. The proposed installation of the antennas/ancillary equipment is intended to operate using the existing base equipment and infrastructure at the established site. Installing LTE in another location would require R F 0 3 111 S Jackson St, 210 Floor Seattle, WA 98104 (206) 342 9000 building a completely new site, thus doubling the presence of wireless facilities within the same quarter mile area. There are no alternative sites that would provide the needed height to allow for the proper functioning of the equipment. There are no multifamily, commercial, or industrial structures tall enough to meet the required height coverage for this site. Alternative sites that would provide the needed height coverage would mean that AT&T would need to propose a new wireless tower or utilization of a city light pole and locate its antennas on it or locate on a new multifamily structure and increase its height — these proposals would aesthetically be more detrimental to the neighborhood. A new facility would not be less intrusive than what is being proposed. The proposed location not only will provide the needed coverage for AT&T it will also lead to fewer adverse impacts on adjacent land uses. Here, collocating the replacing the antennas contains the impacts of the additional antennas to a single location, thus impacting fewer properties. In addition, utilizing the existing equipment lease area and ground equipment further reduces impacts to other properties in the area by avoiding duplicate ground installations at multiple locations, eliminating the need for extensive trenching between the existing ground equipment and alternative locations. In addition, the proposed facility is a passive use; there are no activities that will produce airborne emissions, odor, vibration, heat, glare, or noxious/toxic materials. The site will operate continually, 24 hours a day for seven days a week. The site will be unmanned, requiring only frequent visits by maintenance personnel, typically once a month. Due to the limited amount of traffic generated by the proposal, no off -site street improvements are required for this application. The facility will not require water or wastewater facilities or contribute to erosion due to storm water run-off. The construction valuation is $15,000. The above statements are true and complete to the best of my knowledge. I understand City of Federal Way is relying on them to make its decision.
