City of Federal Way Department of Public Works PO Box 9718 Federal Way WA 98063-9718 RE: Maplewood Office Building Dear Ken: FEDERAL WAY PUBLIC WORKS ADMINISTRATION DIVISION Job No. 326-005-003-0001 As a follow up to our conversation on Wednesday, enclosed is an Offsite Road Study drawing, which we hope illustrates to you that the most desirable position for the future South 333"' Street corridor does not lie centered along the north property line of the Maplewood site. This drawing has been prepared using the City's GIS database together with the site plan sketch for the proposed community center that was provided by the Parks and Recreation Department We have also imported the field topo and proposed building site plan for the Maplewood site. Because of the blending of data sources, the drawing should be considered conceptual; however we believe it is of sufficient accuracy for purposes of this study. On this drawing, we have shown the impact of dedicating 35 feet of right-of-way along the north property line (note: this is less than the 41 feet that was discussed in the Pre - Application meeting because you said the City might accept 35 feet) together with the 20- foot building setback from that property line for the new office building. Should the City require this dedication, the impact to the building would be a loss of a minimum of about 2000 square feet or a total of 6% of the total rentable square footage; about 13% of usable land area; and about 10 to 15 parking stalls. This represents a significant adverse economic impact to the project, in addition to the potential construction cost for the 1 /2 street improvements which you said the City contemplated requiring. These impacts are particularly bothersome to Sound Ventures not only because the contemplated project does not need the South 333d Street road (insofar as our property is completely adequately served by existing 9th Avenue South) but also because grading realities make it highly unlikely our project could ever use South 333d Street Furthermore, Doug Klappenbach of Sound Ventures has stated that requiring them to dedicate a substantial portion of the land for a road they likely cannot use for the project (and even if they could use it, they don't need it!) inflicts unnecessary damage to our property, all out of proportion to the value of the new road to them. 720 South 348th Street Tel (253) 838 6113 Bothell (425) 415 6144 Civil Engineering Land Planning Federal Way.

July 30, 2003 Page 2 We feel that the centerline of the proposed new roadway should be shifted north on park property, substantially as shown on our enclosed drawing, principally for the following reasons: North of the Maplewood site, the roadway would be within the existing berm area, which is currently unusable ground in the park property. 2. Shifting the road further north at that point would reduce the impacts i.e., slopes and retaining walls that might be necessary around the existing building and parking lot west of 9'" Avenue South (ABAM building). There is a significant grade change (more than 10 feet) that would need to be addressed. 3. This would allow for the elimination of a portion of the existing park road, which could provide additional area for the Park Department to develop and relocate the existing bioswale, if necessary. A new driveway to the Park could be located as shown on our enclosed drawing. 4. Shifting the road northerly as depicted on our drawing does not appear to affect the proposed site plan for the Community Center. Also it appears that impacts to the wetland and buffer can be avoided. 5. We are certain that the net effect of the shift will give the City a substantial savings in the overall cost of the new road. In summary, to us it appears clear that the location of the road needs to be north of the existing property line. If the road were centered on the existing property line there clearly would be substantial impacts, not only to the Maplewood development but also to the ABAM Building. We also think it is particularly significant, that the City already owns all the usable ground north of our property line, within which it could locate the new road, so it only seems logical to us that the proper location of the future roadway would be on the City's land. Also, Doug Klappenbach has asked that I add to this letter, the fact that the property is fully serviced by existing 9th Avenue South and has no need for access to South 333`d Street means that it is highly doubtful the City has the power to inflict either the cost or the location of the contemplated road on the property because of the Washington Supreme Courts 2002 decision in Benchmark Land Co. v. City of Battle Ground 146 Wn.2d 685. Having said this, Doug has stated that he would have no objection to dedicating the narrow triangular strip of land along the northeast portion of our contemplated parking lot (located approximately as shown on the enclosed drawing) to the City as part of the permit process if and when the City determines it does indeed need the strip. We understand you are meeting Monday afternoon to discuss this issue. We hope that the enclosed drawing is helpful to you in your discussions and adequately convey to you our point of view regarding this future alignment Mr. Ken Miller, P.E. July 30, 2003 Page 3 We would greatly appreciate it if you can get back to me or Andy Martin of ESM, no later than Monday, August 11, 2003, with a decision on this matter so that we can process our building permit application for our project as presently contemplated.

The site, which is currently undeveloped, is located at the current north-east terminus of 9th Avenue South. To the north is Celebration Park. The property to the east is undeveloped. To the south is an existing office building. To the west, across 9th Ave. is an office park development.. Among existing site amenities are over fifteen trees that are considered significant by the Federal Way Zoning Code. It is our intention to preserve over 50% of these trees, as well as any other native plants, by carefully locating outdoor service areas and by adjusting drives and parking layouts. Celebration Park is an excellent amenity, within easy walking distance from the site. The main entry and majority of architectural building features are located close to and facing 9th Avenue, allowing close pedestrian access and visibility. Planters follow the grade from the entry around the south west corner of the building. A plaza is located on the west site of the building. that takes advantage of southern exposure on the south west corner of the building. The planter walls will be of a height and depth to accommodate seating. The plaza will also include an area for the bicycle rack. All parking is surface parking, with the majority at the rear (east) side of the building. The parking will be fully landscaped with new and existing vegetation. There are no dead end drives, allowing for smooth traffic flow throughout the site. The building, a detached storage structure, and the waste enclosure will be constructed primarily of concrete, with ❑ textured elastomeric paint finish. Colors and reveal patterns will visuallY vc3" [D;.GS33-C o connect the separate built elements. F�W�kIV EO BY CCIMMUNITY.

The site will be appropriately illuminated for security and safety, while controlling light glare to neighboring sites. All facades of the building incorporate several tools to accomplish modulation. The building height varies around the building. While the primary material is concrete, we have include reveals and form patterns in walls, with of blue glass and metal panels. The metal panels are divided by concrete wing walls. The main entry is articulated by a sloping glass curtain wall. Landscaping, canopies, and a pedestrian plaza are also designed to not only provide amenities, but to give additional facade modulation.
