We hope that the information discussed at that meeting was helpful in understanding the general requirements for your project as submitted. This letter summarizes comments given to you at the meeting by the members of the Development Review Committee. The members who reviewed your project and provided comments include staff from the City's Planning and Building Divisions and Public Works Department, and representatives from Lakehaven Utility District and South King Fire and Rescue. This proposal is subject to the provisions of the 1994 Weyerhaeuser Company Concomitant Pre -Annexation Development Agreement (Exhibit 1), and Corporate Park Zone (CP-1) zoning regulations in effect on August 23, 1994 (Exhibit 2). Any procedural requirements must meet today's codes (Federal Way Revised Code [FWRC] Title 19). The key contact for your project is Dave Van De Weghe, 253-835-2638, david.vandewe ghe@cityoffederalway.coin. For specific technical questions about your project, please contact the appropriate Development Review Committee representative as listed below. Otherwise, any general questions about the preapplication and permitting process can be referred to your key contact. PROJECT DESCRIPTION The application proposes construction of 721,000 square -foot single -story warehouse and associated office building. Eighty-one dock doors and 2 drive-ins will be located on the north and south sides of the building, totaling 162 dock doors and 4 drive-ins. The 721,000 square -foot building will be situated approximately 180 feet south of the northernmost boundary line running generally parallel to the northern property line. Surrounding the building will be 476 parking stalls, 100 of which will be for trailers. No tenant has been identified yet. MAJOR ISSUES Outlined below is a summary of the major issues of your project based on the plans and information submitted for preapplication review. These issues can change due to modifications and revisions in the plans. These major issues only represent comments that the Development Review Committee consider most significant to your project and do not include the majority of the comments provided. The major issues section is only provided as a means to highlight critical requirements or issues. Please be sure to read the entire department comments made in the next section of this letter. KG Investment Properties Page 2 9/21 /2016 ■ Planning Division 1. The proposal is -located in the Corporate Park (CP-1) zone on approximately 51 acres. Based on Section VII, Permitted Uses on Those Portions of the CP-1 Zoned Property Lying Outside the Managed Forest Buffer of the Concomitant Agreement (Exhibit 1), corporate offices are allowed outright subject to Process II per FWRC Chapter 19.65. Warehousing and distribution are also allowed, subject to Process IV, Hearing Examiner, FWRC Chapter 19.70, when such facility is within 200 feet of a single-family zone or use. To the east, parcel #152104-9201 is zoned Single -Family Residential (RS 9.6); however, the proposed building is more than 200 feet from this zone. 2. Since the building exceeds 12,000 square feet and there are more than 40 parking spaces, review under the State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA) is required subject to Use Process III. Wetland intrusions fall under FWRC 19.145 and are subject to Process IV. If the development, use or activity that requires approval through Process III is part of a proposal that also requires approval through Process IV, the entire proposal will be decided upon using Process IV, perFWRC 19.15.060 and 19.70.010. Under Process IV, the Hearing Examiner will make the final decision following a public hearing. Per FWCC Sec. 22-1397, a parking analysis must be submitted to justify a decrease in the required number of parking spaces. A modification request to the parking requirement shall be considered as part of the overall development review process. 6. Because the northern property line abuts the OP-1 zoning district, Section III.13.3 of the Concomitant Agreement requires a 50-foot Managed Forest Buffer.

Provisions for extension of time are contained within FWRC 19.15.110, "Lapse of Approval — Time Extension." 7. Key Codes and Development Regulations a) Applicability — The project is subject to the August 1994 Weyerhaeuser Company Concomitant Pre -Annexation Development Agreement (Exhibit 1); the CP-1 Zoning Regulations (Exhibit 2); and, with certain exceptions, the FWCC and development regulations in effect at that time. Unless noted otherwise, the following comments and code citations pertain to 1994 development regulations. b) Critical Areas —As noted in the Major Issues Section above, the site contains regulated wetlands as identified by the City's wetland inventory. The formal application must include a critical areas report prepared by a qualified professional. This report must evaluate the proposal and probable impacts on the on -site wetlands, and provide a mitigation plan in compliance with current code, Chapter 19.145 of FWRC. In addition, the City will not issue any approvals to fill wetlands until all state, federal, or other agency permits as may be required to fill the wetlands have been obtained and verification provided to the City. c) Building Height — Per Section IX of the CP-I Zoning Regulations (Exhibit 2), maximum building height is six stories. If approved through Process IV'Hearing Examiner's Review, the height of the structure may exceed six stories if certain conditions outlined in that section are met. d) Building Setbacks• from Property Lines — Per Section I1I.13 of the CP-1 Zoning Regulations (Exhibit 2), no setbacks are specified except for the continuous Managed Forest Buffer, which states that a continuous Managed Forest Buffer shall be provided around the entire perimeter of the CP-I property. The required depth of the setback is 100 feet when abutting Interstate 5. A 50- foot buffer is required along the northern property line, which abuts the OP-1 zoning district. In accordance with Section IV.B of the CP-I Zoning Regulations (Exhibit 2), a General Maintenance Plan for the buffer must be submitted with the formal application. e) Number of Parking Spaces — Off-street parking shall comply with the 1994 zoning code as modified by the provisions of Section XIII of the CP-I Zoning Regulations (Exhibit 2). The 1994 code has the following parking requirements: File -16-107782-00-PC Doc I D 74388 S KG Investment Properties Page 5 9/21 /2016 • Office — one for every 300 square feet of gross floor area + -Warehouse — one for every 1,000 square feet of gross floor area The preapplication site plan shows only 376 car stalls and 100 trailer spaces. Per FWCC Sec. 22- 1397, a modification request to the parking requirement shall be considered as part of the overall development review process. A parking analysis must be submitted to justify a decrease in the required number of parking spaces. Surface parking and driving areas shall be designed to meet the City's Parking Lot Design Criteria (Exhibit 5). f) Lot Coverage — Section III of the CP-I Zoning Regulations (Exhibit 2) states that; "The aggregate impervious surface coverage by all permitted uses, primary and accessory, shall not exceed 70 percent of the total CP-I zoned property." The fonnal application must provide lot coverage calculations to ensure compliance with this condition. g) Landscaping— Section III of the CP-I Zoning Regulations (Exhibit 2) states that, "The provisions of that section shall modify application of Chapter 22 XVII (Landscaping) of the 1994 Code." Please refer to Exhibit 2 for specific modification language. To summarize, this modification language requires that all portions of the property not used for buildings, parking, storage, accessory uses, and/or landscaping be retained in a "native" or pre -developed state. Identification of significant trees shall not apply in the CP-I zone. The following landscaping requirements of the 1994 Code must be met: (i) Interior Parking Lot Landscaping— Section XI.D of the CP-I Zoning Regulations (Exhibit 2) states that, "New parking areas shall comply with minimum standards of the 1994 Code; except that selection and distribution of plant material conforming to existing development shall be preferred." Based on Section 22-1567(b)(1)(a)(ii) of the 1994 Code, interior parking lot landscaping is required at the rate of 22 square feet of Type IV landscaping per parking stall when 50 'or more parking stalls are provided. The submitted landscaping plan must identify the location and square footage of all areas being included as interior lot landscaping. Landscape islands must be provided at the ends of all rows of parking and must meet the dimensional requirements of Section 22-1567(c). (ii) Parking Lot Landscape Screening— Per Section 22-1567(e)(1) of the 1994 Code, parking areas adjacent to public rights -of -way shall incorporate berms at least three feet in height within perimeter landscape areas; or alternatively, if approved by the Community Development Director, substantial shrub plantings must be added to the required perimeter landscaping, and/or provide architectural features of appropriate height with trees, shrubs and groundcover, in a number sufficient to act as efficient substitute for the three-foot berm, to reduce the visual impact of parking areas and screen automobiles. h) Design Guidelines — Section X of the CP-I Zoning Regulations (Exhibit 2) states that, "Provisions of the 1994 Code relating to facade measurement, modulation, distance between structures, materials, except as those specified, shall not apply." However, the 1994 Code states that one of the purposes of site plan review is, "To encourage proposals that embody good design principles that will result in high quality development on the Subject property." The City adopted non-residential guidelines in 1996, after the effective date of the Concomitant Agreement. The purpose of the design guidelines is to maintain and protect property values and enhance the general appearance of the City. We encourage you to meet the design guidelines in order to complement the other buildings in the area. File 4 16-103782-00-PC Doc, I.D, 74388 KG Investment Properties Page 6 9/21 /2016 i) Land Surface Modification —Per Section 10 of the 1994 Concomitant Agreement (Exhibit 1), a Land Surface Modification Permit (grading permit or equivalent) may be reviewed by the City in advance of a development permit, provided the development permit application has been made and all information required by Article XIII, "Land Surface Modifications" of the 1994 Code has been provided to the City. Issuance of a grading pen -nit for the Land Surface Modification may also be contingent upon meeting the requirements of the adopted surface water design manual, and only after approval of the required Use Process. j) Outside Agency Permits — It is the applicant's responsibility to identify and obtain all required state, federal, or other agency permits as may be required. 8. Technical Review Letter See the enclosed technical review letter (Exhibit 10) issued to a related project, Preferred Freezer, for reference as you put together your submittal. PUBLIC WORKS DEVELOPMENT SERVICES DIVISION (Kevin Peterson, 253-835-2734, kevin.peterson@cityoffederalway.com) Land Use Issues — Stormwater 1. Surface water runoff control and water quality treatment will be required per the 2016 King County ,Sznface Water Design Manual (KCSWDM) and the City of Federal Way Addendum. This project meets the requirements for a Full Drainage Review. At the time of land use site plan submittal, a preliminary Technical Information Report (TIR), addressing the relevance of the project to the nine core and five special requirements of the KCSWDM will be required. A Level 1 downstrearn analysis shall also be provided in the preliminary T1R. The City has 1" = 100', five-foot contour planimetric maps that may be used for basin analysis. The project lies within a Conservation flow control area, thus the applicant must design the flow control facility to meet this performance criteria. In addition to flow control facilities, Best Management Practices (BMP's) are required as outlined in the KCSWDM. The project also lies within Enhanced Basic Water Quality Area. Water Quality Treatment shall be designed to meet the treatment criteria of the Enhanced Basic Water Quality Menu. All Stormwater requirements listed above also apply to the new parking lot(s) that are proposed to be constructed on- (adjacent to-) the existing Weyerhaeuser Technology Center (WTC) building. 3. It appears the site is subject to Special Requirement #5: Oil Control, since it's expected that the site is `...subject to (the) use, storage, or maintenance of a fleet of 25 or more diesel... vehicles that are over 10 tons net weight...'. 4. In addition to the requirements for Water Quality treatment noted above, the site is near an identified Sphagnum Bog (Core Requirement 6.1.4 of the KCSWDM). The applicant's engineer shall dernonstrate in their storrnwater technical analysis if and/or how the project does, or does not, impact this bog, and the means of providing water quality treatment to meet the Sphagnum Bog treatment criteria if stormwater runoff affects the bog. 5. In addition to the KCSWDM, our initial review suggests that FWRC 19.30.120, "Nonconforning Water Quality Improvements" applies to the "remainder" of the existing Weyerhaeuser Technology Center (WTC) site: File 016-103,782-00-PC Doc- I D 74388 KG Investment Properties Page 7 9/21 /2016 La. Redevelopment which involves the creation or addition of impervious surfaces having an area of 5000 square feet or more; l .d. Redevelopment which involves the collection and/or concentration of surface and/or stormwater runoff from a drainage area of 5,000 square feet or more; Therefore, water quality treatment will be required for the entire WTC site, including new and existing pollution generating impervious surfaces. Treatment options must be selected from the Enhanced Basic Water Quality Menu provided in the KCSWDM. 6. If infiltration is proposed, soil logs prepared by a licensed geotechnical engineer or septic designer must be provided to verify infiltration suitability. 7. Detention and water quality facilities for private commercial developments outside the City Center Core must be above ground (i.e. open pond). Underground facilities are allowed only with approval from the City of Federal Way Public Works Department. 8. Show the proposed location and dimensions of the detention and water quality facilities on the preliminary plans. 9. If more than one acre will be disturbed during construction, a National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) construction stormwater permit may be required. Information regarding this permit can be obtained from the Washington State Department of Ecology at htt ://www.ecv.wa. ovl ro2rams/w/stormwatet/constrtction/iiidex.litml or by calling 360-407- 6048. Right -of -Way Improvements See the Traffic Division comments from Sarady Long, Sr. Transportation Planning Engineer, for traffic related items. 2. If dedication of additional right-of-way is required to install street frontage improvements, the dedication shall be conveyed to the City through a statutory warranty deed. The dedicated area must have clear title prior to recording. 3. All stormwater treatment and detention requirements outlined above may apply to any required improvements within the public right-of-way. Building Permit Issues 1. Engineered plans are required for clearing, grading, road construction, and utility work. Plans must be reviewed and approved by the City. Engineering review fees are $1,125.00 for the first 12 hours of review, and $93.75 per hour for additional review time. A final TIR shall be prepared for the project and submitted with the engineering plans. Both the TIR and the plans will require the signature/seal of a professional engineer registered/licensed in the state of Washington. 2. The Federal Way Public Works Development Standards Manztal (including standard detail drawings, standard notes, and engineering checklists) is available on the City's website at: www.citvoffederaIway.com/node/]467 to assist the applicant's engineer in preparing the plans and TI R. File 0I6-103752-00-P(' Doc ID 74388 KG Investment Properties Paoc 8 9/21 /2016 Bonding is required for all street improvements and temporary erosion and sediment control measures associated with the project. The bond amount shall be 120 percent of the estimated costs of the improvements. An administrative fee deposit will need to accompany the bond to cover any possible legal fees in the event the bond must be called. Upon completion of the installation of the improvements, and final approval of the Public Works Inspector, the bond will be reduced to 30 percent of the original amount and held for a two-year maintenance period. Tile developer will be responsible for the maintenance of all storm drainage facilities (including the detention and water quality facilities) and street systems. During that time, the Public Works Inspector will make periodic visits to the site to ensure the developer's compliance with the maintenance requirements. Upon satisfactory completion of the two-year maintenance period, the remainder of the bond will be released. Maintenance for public roads and subdivision drainage facilities then become the responsibility of the City. Maintenance for private roads and drainage facilities, including short plats, remain the responsibility of the individual property owners. 5. When topographic survey information is shown on the plans, the vertical datum block shall include the phrase "DATUM: N.G.V.D.-29" or "DATUM: K.C.A.S.," on all sheets where vertical elevations are called out. 6. Drawings submitted for plan review shall be printed on 24" x 36" or 22" x 34" paper. Site plans shall be drawn at a scale of 1" = 20', or larger. Architectural scales are not permitted on engineering plans. 7. Provide cut and fill quantities on the clearing and grading plan. 8. Temporary Erosion and Sediment -control (TESC) measures, per Appendix D of the 2016 KCSWDM, must be shown on the engineering plans. 9. The site plan shall show the location of any existing and proposed utilities in the areas affected by construction. PUBLIC WORKS TRAFFIC DIVISION Sarady Long, 253-835-2743, sara(fv.longrni citvoffecleralway.com Transportation Coneurrency Analysis (FWRC 19.90) 1. A concurrency permit is required for this development project. The concurrency analysis will determine if adequate roadway capacity exists during the weekday PM peak period to accommodate the proposed development project. Please note that supplemental transportation analysis and concurrency mitigation may be required if the proposed project creates an impact not anticipated in the six -year Transportation Improvement Plan (TIP). 2. Based on the submitted materials for 721,000 square feet warehouse/office, the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) Trip Generation - 9"' Edition, land use code 152 (High -Cube Warehouse/Distribution Center), the proposed project is estimated to generate approximately 87 new weekday PM peak hour trips, 79 morning peak hotn-trips, and 1,211 Weekday trips. 3. The trip generation for the proposed development using the Institute of Transportation Engineers iTE's Trip Generation land use code 152 (High -Cube Warehouse) may not be appropriate for the proposed project. Therefore, the applicant needs to provide a narrative of the proposed use including the total employees and work shift. Alternatively, the applicant's traffic engineer may perform a trip Fde p1(-10;7S'_'-00-PC Doc. I.D 74388 KG Investment Properties Page 9 9/21 /2016 generation study to determine the number of trips including truck trips generated by the proposed development. The methodology for determining the trip generation shall be based upon the guidelines established in the most recent edition of the ITE Trip Generation Handbook. 4. The estimated fee for the concurrency permit application is $4,315.50 (51— 500 Trips). This fee is an estimate and based on the materials submitted during the preapplication meeting. The concurrency application fee must be paid in full at the time the concurrency pen -nit application is submitted with land use application. The fee may change based on the new weekday PM peak hour trips as identified in the concurrency trip generation. The applicant has the option of having an independent traffic engineer prepare the concurrency analysis consistent with City procedures; however, the fee remains the same. Transportation Impact Fees (TIF) (FWRC 19.91) Based on the submitted materials for 721,000 square feet Warehouse/Office building, the estimated traffic impact fee is 81,002,647 (2016 Adopted Fees). Please note, the actual impact fee will be calculated based on the fee schedule in effect at the time a building permit application is filed and must be paid prior to permit issuance. Transportation Impact Analysis (TIA) (FWCC 22-1475) l . A Transportation Impact Analyses (TIA) to identify transportation impacts of development projects and provide appropriate mitigation measures is required. The TIA is required to assess additional project impacts beyond those that were identified under the concurrency permit process. Mitigation improvements necessary beyond those identified in the TIP to meet the City's adopted level -of - service standards are required to be provided by the applicant. 2. A Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA) prepared by an engineer licensed in the state of Washington is required for this development project. The engineer should contact the Traffic Division for a scoping sheet in the initial stages of the study. The TIA should include the following analysis: ■ A specialized land use trip generation study that may be used to adjust the adopted impact fees rate. r Truck Trip Assignment. ■ Pavement analysis per AASHTO on Weyerhaeuser Way and S 336"' St. (truck access routes) to ensure the existing pavement can accommodate the expected truck load. ■ Analysis of intersections impacted by 100 trips in the weekday morning and Saturday/Sunday peak hours. ■ Right -turn and left -turn lane warrant analysis at all driveways. ■ Queuing analysis of access points for morning, evening, and Saturday peak hours. Street Frontage Improvements (FWCC 22-1474) 1. Per FWCC Sec. 22-1474, the applicant/owner will be expected to construct street improvements along the entire frontage and width of the right-of-way that abuts the subject property consistent with the classification of the various streets within the City. Furthermore, FWCC is supported by the Federal Way Comprehensive Plan Policy TP4.5, which requires developments to dedicate right-of- way as needed for development commensurate with the impacts of the development. At a minimum, File r.Ic-103782-oo-Pc Doc I D. 74388 KG Investment Properties PaOc 10 9/21 /2016 setback limits shall be used to assure that buildings are not placed within the right-of-way requirements for planned transportation facilities. As such, the applicant will be expected to construct improvements on the following streets to the City's planned roadway: ■ Weyerhaeuser Way S is a Principal Collector consisting of a 44-foot street with curb and gutter, six-foot planter strips with street trees, eight -foot sidewalks, and street lights in a 78-foot right-of- way (ROW). Assuming a symmetrical cross section, 9-foot ROW dedication as measured from street centerline and full street improvements are required. The improvement shall be along the entire frontage of the subject property. Map 111-3 of the Comprehensive Plan depicted a 5-lane east -west principal collector road (S 324"' Street extension) along the north side of the property extending from SR 5 to Weyerhaeuser Way South. Per code, the applicant would be expected to dedicate rights -of -way and construct full width street improvements along the section of the planned road that abuts the subject property. The S 324°i Street extension shal I consist of a 72-foot street with curb and gutter, five-foot planter strips with street trees, eight -foot sidewalks, and streetlights in a 106-foot right-of-way (ROW). The applicant may request that a credit or credits for impact fees be awarded for the total value of system improvements, including dedications of land, improvements and/or construction provided by the applicant. The applicant may also utilize the S 324"' Street extension to access onto Weyerhaeuser Way South. 2. The owner may be required to dedicate additional right-of-way (ROW) to accommodate additional turn lane improvements if identified in the transportation analysis and/or property corner radius. 3. The applicant may make a written request to the Public Works Director to modify, defer, or waive the required street improvements (FWCC 22-1477). Please note that these modification requests have a nominal review fee. 4. Tapers and transitions beyond the project frontage may be required as deemed necessary for safety purposes; taper rate shall be WS^2/60 or as directed by the Public Works Director. Access Management (FWCC 22-1543) 1. Driveways on Weyerhaeuser Way may not be located closer than 150 feet to any other street intersection or driveway, whether on or off the subject property. The current proposal does not meet access management standards. The northerly Tech Center access/driveway should be closed. 2. There may be no more than one driveway for each 150 feet of lot frontage. Access may be further restricted or prohibited as deemed appropriate by the Public Works Director. 3. Access may be further restricted if such access would interfere with the 95"' percentile queue lengths from any existing traffic control device. 4. For driveways that serve uses other than single-family residential uses and zero lot line townhouse development, the maximum driveway width is 30 feet for a two-lane two-way driveway (FWCC 22- 1542). Driveway widths may be increased in order to provide adequate width for vehicles that may be reasonably expected to use the driveway, as determined by the Public Works Director. An amendment to the agreement is needed to increase the driveway width. File 4I6-103752-00-PC Doc ID 74388 KG Investment Properties Page 11 9/21/2016 Design Criteria The applicant's engineer needs to submit a Vehicle Turning Diagram to the Public Works Traffic Division. This diagram will show ]low the appropriate design vehicle (delivery trucks) can enter, maneuver, and leave the site without encroaching onto opposing traffic lanes or mounting a curb. The analysis shall also include the roundabouts on Weyerhaeuser Way South. 2. The application should be forwarded to WSDOT, King County METRO and Pierce Transit. PUBLIC WORKS - SOLID WASTE AND RECYCLING DIVISION (Rob Van Orsow, 253-835-2770, robr-(a citvoffederahva► -corn) Solid Waste and Recycling Design Considerations Solid waste and recycling design considerations include: • Adequate space allocation for interior and exterior garbage, recycling, food waste, waste oil, yard debris, hazardous waste, or biohazard collection containers. Minimum recycling space allocation is established by FWRC 19.125.150. • For basic solid waste and recycling needs within a single enclosure, clear interior dimensions measuring 10' deep by 20' across are recommended, along with a two -door swing -open or roll - open gate that spans the front width of the enclosure. When gate doors are opened, no structure or hardware should remain above grade across the enclosure opening. Gate pins/holes are preferred for holding gates in closed and open positions to ease service access and maximize the life of gate hardware. • Sites may require a larger enclosure, or multiple enclosures, to accommodate on -site user access and/or additional waste types and containers. • Plan for user access to interior waste and recycling storage areas/containers, and to exterior containers screened by enclosure(s). • Plan for unobstructed, safe enclosure ingress and egress for service vehicles, directly in line with enclosure openings. Allow appropriate turning radii for service vehicles, and minimize potential `blind spots' during ingress and egress. ■ Consider landscaping, setbacks and screening requirements [based on FWRC Section 19.125.040 (4) and (5)]. • Note that larger -scale commercial or multi -unit housing developments may see long-term savings from the use of on -site waste compaction equipment. Planning for this equipment may require larger enclosure dimensions, defined overhead clearances, consideration of power utility access, and drainage management. • Mixed -use developments may also benefit from on -site waste compaction equipment.

Site Description The proposed project is located between Weyerhaeuser Way S and Interstate-5, and generally north of the Weyerhaeuser Technology Center (WTC). The properties are zoned CP-1 and are subject to the 1994 Weyerhaeuser Company Concomitant Pre -Annexation and Zoning Agreement as well as portions of the 1994 FWC. Specifically, the proposed project with include portions of assessor's parcel numbers, 162104-9056, -9030, and - 9013. There is approximately 40' of fall across the property from the northwest corner to the southeast corner of the site. The site is partially developed with asphalt parking lots that serve the WTC, and a mix of large evergreen and deciduous trees. A portion of parking lot serving the WTC is proposed to be relocated and reconfigured to accommodate the new warehouse, office space and associated parking. There are some small wetlands located on, or immediately adjacent to the site as shown on the enclosed site plan. The proposed 721,000 square foot building and associated parking lot is proposing to fill, or partially fill, 6 small, low -quality wetlands. More information, details and justification will be provided in a wetland delineation report to be submitted with the Process III application. Talasaea Consultants will be providing site reconnaissance and wetland delineation for the project based upon the most current critical areas regulations adopted by the City of Federal Way.

Eighty-one dock doors and 2 drive-ins will be located on the north and south side of the building to total 162 dock doors and 4 drive-ins. The 721,000 SF building will be situated approximately 180 feet south of the northernmost boundary line running generally parallel to the northern property line. Parkin Surrounding the building will be 476 stalls, 100 of which will be for trailers. Landscape islands and peninsulas will be located every 10 parking stalls. On the south side of the property, parking stalls will be located approximately 130 feet from the dock doors. We are aware that the proposal does not meet the parking requirements for the size of the proposed uses; however, the number of stalls provided will meet the needs of the future tenants. While a parking modification request will be included in the Process III application at the time of submittal, we would like to understand the City's receptiveness to such a request as soon as possible. Managed Forest Buffer Pursuant to the 1994 Weyerhaeuser Company Concomitant Pre -Annexation and Zoning Agreement, Exhibit C, Section 111.13 there is a continuous managed forest buffer required around the perimeter of the CP-1 zone. The buffer, as it affects this site, is shown on the site plan, and includes a 100-foot buffer along 1-5. There is no buffer proposed abutting the OP-1 zone since the proposed uses are compatible. The OP-1 zoned property contains office uses, and the proposed warehouse also contains office space. Also, warehouse uses are allowed in the OP-1 zoning as an accessory use. We request confirmation that no managed forest buffer is required along the common boundary with the compatible OP-1 zoning. Please note, however, that we propose to provide a 10-foot landscape buffer at this location. Traffic/Circulation Access to this facility will be provided off of Weyerhaeuser Way S in two locations, each being approximately 40 feet in width to accommodate truck turning movements. The northernmost access has been located approximately 240 feet south of the northern property line. The second 40-foot wide access is proposed to be located where the current entrance to the northern parking lot of the WTC is located. This will function as a shared access servicing both the proposed warehouse and the WTC property. Two additional, 30-foot wide access points will be created after reconfiguration of the WTC north parking lot to provide direct access to the WTC. The distance between these two access points is approximately 400 feet. Utilities Water and sewer services will be provided by Lakehaven Utility District. Based upon early discussion, we do not anticipate any limitations doe to capacity; however, we will need to know the anticipated fire flow, fees and any other potential limitations that may impact the development of this project. Mr. Scott Sproul August 3, 2016 Page 3 Storm Stormwater runoff from the new development will be collected and routed to three separate stormwater treatment and detention facilities located around the project. One stormwater pond will be located in the northeastern corner of the project. The remaining two ponds will be located at the southwest and southeast corners of the site, with the southeastern pond falling just outside of the final project boundary. Each pond will be sized per the recently adopted, 2016 King County Stormwater Design Manual. After detention and treatment, stormwater will be released at pre -developed rates to the natural downstream drainage paths. Due to the poor soil conditions anticipated, we do not expect that infiltration of stormwater will be feasible for this project. Boundary Line Adjustment Similar to the Preferred Freezer project, the applicant will propose a Boundary Line Adjustment (BLA) to realign the above -mentioned parcels to accommodate this proposed development. The intent of this future BLA will be to contain the new and existing buildings on separate parcels and remove the lot lines that currently cross the WTC building. Questions/Confirmations for the Develo meet Review Committee 1. Process III - We believe that the project should be subject to the Process III requirements of the Code. We are aware that the City has also looked at Process IV. We would like to discuss this issue further and also understand the specifics of that process (steps and timelines)? 2. Impervious Requirements - We would like to confirm that the 30% impervious requirement is applied over the entire campus, and not on a project by project basis. 3. Significant Trees - Pursuant to the 1994 Agreement, no additional tree retention is required beyond the managed forest buffer outlined in the agreement (Section XI. Landscaping. A. 3.). 4. Offsite Improvements - Please confirm that frontage improvements will be required on Weyerhaeuser Way S consistent with a Type K Street as depicted in the Transportation element of the Comprehensive Plan. 5. Fees - Are there any other impact fees besides Traffic and School that will apply to this project? When is the next adjustment to the traffic impact fees expected to take place? 6. Water Availability - Please confirm that 4,000 gpm at 20 psi is available. Will the fire department allow a 75% reduction versus the standard 50% reduction for automatic sprinklers? 7. Curb Cuts - How many curb cuts can the project have on Weyerhaeuser Way S? What is the minimum separation? What is the maximum width? 8. Buffers - We are depicting a 10-foot buffer along the northern property line and along Weyerhaeuser Way S. Please confirm that this is greater than required under the 1994 Agreement. Mr. Scott Sproul August 3, 2016 Page 4 9. Parking - Based on our intended use, we have assumed 1 space per 2,000 sf of building to meet the actual parking needs of the development, instead of 1 /1000 which is required by code. Will the City support a variance for this reduction? We intend to submit a Process III land use application with a SEPA checklist in the near future, and we'd like to concurrently process the boundary line adjustment. Enclosed with this letter, please find the following materials: • Master Land Use Application (1 copy); • Pre -Application Conference Checklist (1 copy); • Conceptual Site Plan (7 copies); and Submittal Fee ($460.50).
