RE: File #17-104928-00-UP; PROCESS I DIRECTOR'S APPROVAL
Verizon SEA Marklake, 34301 9`h Ave S, Federal Way
Dear Ms. Butler:
The City of Federal Way's Department of Community Development has completed an administrative
review of the proposed eligible facilities request to modify an existing Personal Wireless Facility (PWSF)
located at the above -mentioned address. The proposed modifications include the removal of six remote
radio antennas and six remote radio heads. They will be replaced by 12 antennas, six remote radio heads,
one surge protector and one hybrid line on the existing 120 ft. monopole. There is no increase in height.
The Process I application was submitted and determined to be complete on October 12, 2017. The eligible
facilities request is found to be consistent with the provisions of the Spectrum Act and does not exceed the
substantial change thresholds. The Process I proposal is hereby approved based on the following
statements of fact.
Criteria 1
For facilities outside of public rights -of -way, the modification does not increase the height of the tower by
more than 10 percent, or by the height of one additional antenna array, with separation from the nearest
existing antenna not to exceed 20 feet, whichever is greater.
Staff Response — There is no height increase; antennas will extend horizontally less than 20 feet. This
criterion is met.
Criteria 2
For structures outside of public rights -of -way, the modification does not protrude from the edge of the
structure more than 20 feet, or more than the width of the structure at the level of the appurtenance,
whichever is greater.
Staff Response — Based on the elevations and site plan, the mounts will extend less than nine feet from the
edge of the existing structure. This criterion is met.
Criteria 3
If the installation includes new equipment cabinets, the modification does not include the installation of
more than four equipment cabinets.
Staff Response —No new equipment cabinets are proposed. This criterion is met.
Ms. Butler

Criteria 4
For all existing facilities, [lie modification does not include excavation or equipment installation outside
the current site of the structure or base station.
Staff Response — All proposed modifications are within the existing site area. No excavation or equipment
will be installed outside the existing shelter/facility enclosure. This criterion is met.
Criteria 5
If the facility requires screening methods, the proposed modification does not defeat the existing
concealment elements of the tower or base station.
Staff Response — Current screening methods are not defeated as a result of this proposal; only minor
equipment additions will occur within the existing facility enclosure. This criterion is met.
Criteria 6
The modification may not violate any of the conditions of approval associated with prior approvals.
Staff Response — The proposal does not violate any known conditions associated with prior approvals of
the tower or site. This criterion is met.
BUILDING DIVISION
No building permit is required for this antenna modification. The applicant must apply for electrical work
under a separate permit. For further information regarding permits, please contact the city's Permit Center

relating to this site. This Process I approval does not constitute approval of any building permit.
The effective date of this decision is November 10, 2017, or three days from the date of this letter.

taken within one year, this decision will expire. A one-year extension of time may be granted only if a
written request is submitted to the city's Department of Community Development at least 30 days prior to
