RE: ST FRANCIS HOSPITAL - AMBULATORY SERVICES BUILDING
34515 9th Avenue South
File No. 00-104174-000-00-PC
Dear Mr. Hoskins:
Thank you for meeting with the City's Community Development Review Committee (CDRC) regarding
your proposed project. The committee includes representatives from the Lakehaven Utility District,
Federal Way Fire Department, and staff from the City's Community Development Services's Planning
and Building Divisions and Public Works Department.
This letter summarizes our preapplication conference on August 31, 2000, at which time members of the
CDRC discussed development requirements as they apply to the proposed approximately 70,000 square
foot building addition for ambulatory services. Where appropriate, pertinent ordinance sections are noted.
The items listed below do not include all regulations applicable to the subject proposal. In preparing your
application, all pertinent portions of the city's land use code must be consulted.
LAND USE DIVISION — Jim Harris, (253) 661-4019
1. Land Use Review —The zoning of the subject site is OP, Office Park. This zoning district permits a
variety of uses, including office and hospital uses, subject to various regulatory controls. The
Department has reviewed your August 28, 2000, written description of the proposed Ambulatory
Services Use. This proposed expansion onto the existing building is not considered a hospital use
for zoning review. The proposed Ambulatory Services Use most closely resembles the definition of
"Office Use" within the Federal Way City Code (FWCC) definition.
An office use is permitted in the OP zoning district pursuant to Section FWCC Section 22-826
(enclosed). Pursuant to FWCC Section 22-826 an office use is permitted subject to Process III
(Project Approval), with environmental review. Process III review is an administrative site plan
review process, with a written decision by the Director of Community based on criteria listed under
FWCC Section 22-365(b). The process III application must be prepared in accordance with the
enclosed Development Application Submittal Requirements Checklist. A checklist and master land
use application are enclosed along with applicable code sections. Building permits are issued
following completion of the Process III review.
Processing time is approximately 120 review days following submittal of a complete application.
This 120-day review period does not include any time during which the City has requested addition
technical information required to review the application. Building permits can be issued after
Process III approval is granted.
2. State Environmental Policy Act { ) — The proposal is subject to environmental review under
the State Environmental Policy Ac PA). Environmental threshold determinations are issued by
the Director of Community Development Services, with any appeals decided by the hearing
examiner.
The environmental checklist should address ultimate build -out of the site, in order to determine key
infrastructure elements and off -site impacts. The SEPA checklist must address, but is not necessarily
limited to, the following:
A Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA) as noted in the enclosed Public Works comments.
Storm drainage review as noted in the enclosed Public Works comments.
All phased actions under the proposal, i.e., how the construction sequence will relate to any
mitigation requirements, e.g., construction of any off -site improvements, or voluntary payment
of pro-rata share for traffic mitigation.
> A wetland delineation/evaluation for the subject property and all areas within 200 feet of the
site must be prepared by a qualified source. Wetlands are present nearby and possibly on the
subject property. A copy of the environmentally sensitive area regulations is enclosed, and
further discussion of the wetlands issues are included below.
SEPA noticing provisions require the applicant to submit two sets of mailing envelopes addressed to
all owners and occupants of property within 300 feet of all property boundaries. Mailing envelopes
must be stamped and addressed, with the City's return address. Along with the mailing envelopes, a
list of corresponding addresses of both owners and occupants must be submitted, and an assessor's
map showing the 300 foot radius from all property boundaries.
3. Binding Site Plan Amendment — A Binding Site Plan is required where there is a subdivision of
properties for sale or lease, and which are intended for commercial or industrial development. In this
case, an amendment to the prior Binding Site Plan must be prepared in accordance with the Federal
Way Subdivision Code as identified in FWCC Section 20-62 and applicable subdivision regulations.
Pursuant to FWCC Section 20-64, a Binding Site Plan amendment follows the same process and
requirements as a Binding Site Plan. The Binding Site Plan is intended to consider all proposed
parcels, parking areas, building envelopes, buffers, easements, etc. The review process for the
Binding Site Plan is similar to the Process III review discussed above and is processed concurrently
with the Process III land use application.
In this case where no proposal for future use of portions of the parcels is contemplated, the Binding
Site Plan should at a minimum consider access and circulation to the remaining parcels. Future
development of theremaining parcels will require subsequent amendments to the approved and
recorded binding site plan. Pursuant to FWCC Section 20-64, a Binding Site Plan is subject to
applicable design criteria of the Federal Way City Code, including but not limited to buffering,
building envelopes, easements, lot divisions, street and pedestrian connectivity and circulation as
discussed in the attached Traffic Division memo.
The new parking area as proposed may not be developed on a stand alone parcel, as a parking area is
not allowed as a primary use in the OP zone. The Binding Site Plan must consider the parking area
expansion and parking must be on the same parcel as the primary site use.
4. Fees — The proposal to develop the project requires the following fees: Process III, $1,554.00, plus
$408.00 over 50,000 square feet (includes fire review fee); and $550.00 SEPA fee. A $310.00 credit
for the pre -application meeting will be granted upon submittal of the Process III application. The fee
for the Process III varies with the size of the proposed building square footage, so please call to
determine application fees if the proposed building sizes are modified during the design phase. Also,
the Binding Site Plan requires a $1,553.00 application fee. Additional fees are associated with other
City and district regulations, recording fees, engineering plan review and other permits. Building
permits must be obtained before any work commences.
5. Expedited Review — Expedited review for a variety of project components is available. Refer to the
enclosed handout for submittal information, fees, and requirements. Please be advised that expedited
review fees are in addition to the fees identified in section four above.
Non conforming Development - Article IV of the FWCC establishes when and under what
circumstances nonconforming aspects of a use or development must be brought into conformance
with the zoning code. FWCC Section 22-334 (enclosed) states that if an expansion of gross floor
area of an existing building with multiple tenants or uses occurs through enlargement of the existing
building footprint, then the applicant shall comply with those development regulations applicable to
the geographic portion of the site where the expansion is proposed. The geographic portion of the
site relative to the expansion includes all new development as well as parking areas and landscape
areas in the general area of the expansion.
7. Bulk and Dimensional Regulations —Minimum building setbacks for the proposed uses areas
follow:
✓ Front setback minimum between 25 - 50 feet (depends on site and building design, see FWCC
Section 22-826, note 2).
✓ Side setback minimum of 20 feet from the property lines.
✓ Rear setback minimum of 20 feet from the property lines.
The preliminary site plan displays an access area intruding into the southern perimeter Iandscape
area. All parking areas, drive aisles, and roadways must comply with applicable perimeter buffer
standards.
An average building elevation height of 55 feet is allowed for office use in the OP zone. Average
building elevation is measured from the finished grade, or existing grade prior to development,
whichever is lower. Please reference note 3 of FWCC Section 22-826, which limits the maximum
height of structures to 30 feet above average building elevation, when within 100 feet of a residential
zone. The property adjacent to a portion of the south property line is zoned residential.
All rooftop mechanical equipment must be screened from the street and adjacent properties per
FWCC Section 22-960.
8. Parking — Parking is required at a ratio of 1 stall per 300 square feet of floor area for the site. An
analysis of the existing and proposed parking stall count and existing and proposed building area
must be provided with the Process III application to determine conformance to the required parking
stall count.
The site has a recorded shared parking agreement, which should be considered in the parking
analysis. Shared parking agreements are subject to FWCC Section 22-1422 (enclosed) and can be
eligible for a 10 percent reduction in on site parking.
Full size parking stall dimensions are 90-degree stalls measuring 81/2 by 18 feet, with a 25 '/z foot
wide two-way drive aisle. Compact stalls are 8 by 15 feet. Up to 25 percent of the proposed parking
spaces may be compact size and must be identified on the site plan.
9. Environmentally Sensitive Areas — Wetlands are present on and/or adjacent to the site. A wetland
del ineation/reconnaissance report is required to identify all wetlands on and within 200 feet of the
site perimeter. The project proponent is responsible for all costs incurred by the City's wetland
consultant in reviewing the proponent's wetland delineation and reports.
Any intrusions, including utilities and grading, within the required wetland setback area (which
setback varies between 25 and 200 feet dependant on wetland classification) must be approved
through a Process IV (Hearing Examiner Decision), following a public hearing by the examiner. If
wetland setback intrusions are requested, the decisional criteria of FWCC Sections 22-1359 must be
met. It is the applicant's responsibility to show how any proposed environmentally sensitive area
setback intrusions meet the decisional criteria of the FWCC. The wetlands on and nearby the site are
connected with the Hylebos State Park Wetlands, and have very high functions and values.
Therefore, reduction of the required wetland buffer may be difficult to justify under the code criteria.
Any proposed intrusions into the wetland or associated setbacks must be designed and justified using
a qualified specialist.
If environmentally sensitive area setback intrusions are proposed, the Process III application
discussed above is replaced with a Process IV application. The Process IV application cost is
$2,520.00.
We encourage you to seek neighborhood input and comments on your project early in the design
phase due to the fact that the Friends of the Hylebos, as well as other private parties, actively
monitor development activity around the Hylebos wetlands. Chris Carrell is the Executive Director
of the Friends of the Hylebos and can be reached at 253 874-8270.
10. Required Landscaping —A preliminary landscape plan, prepared by a licensed landscape architect
in accordance with FWCC Article XVII, Landscaping, is required as part of the site plan submittal.
The landscape plan must contain the following elements:
a. Buffer Requirements — FWCC Section 22-1566(h)(1) requires 10 feet of Type III landscaping
abutting access easements and public right-of-ways. If a public or private access roadway is
required on or adjacent to the site as identified by the Traffic Division, then this ten foot buffer
requirement would apply accordingly_ Type III landscaping consists of trees, large shrubs, and
groundcover that will provide visual separation, including a mixture of six foot tall evergreen
trees and 1.5 inch caliper deciduous trees, interspersed with 24 inch tall shrubs and
groundcover.
Under the non-conformance analysis, the perimeter buffer areas surrounding the most southerly
parking area (just west of the wetland area on the preliminary site plan) would be required to be
upgraded to current standards. A five-foot wide Type III landscape standard is required in this
area.
A minimum five-foot wide Type III buffer is also required adjacent to the most westerly
property line.
FWCC Section 22-1566(h)(2) requires Type I Solid Screen landscaping 15 feet in width
adjacent to residential zoning districts along a portion of south property line. Type I
landscaping is intended to provide a 100 percent solid screen from incompatible uses.
The City has not conducted an analysis of the existing site improvements for conformance with
applicable standards. You must conduct this analysis in conjunction with your plan
development, as non -conforming buffers may or may not currently exist.
I have attached a redline drawing identifying the geographic compliance area and the
corresponding buffers.
b. Parking Lot Landscaping — Type IV landscaping must be provided in the interior of the parking
lot in accordance with FWCC Section 22-1567. Twenty-two square feet of interior parking lot
landscaping must be provided for each parking stall for parking lots with 50 or more stalls.
Parking lot landscaping shall generally be provided at the end of all parking rows and dispersed
throughout the parking area in a manner to reduce visual impact of the parking lot. Pursuant to
FWCC Section 22-1567(c), the minimum width of planter islands at the end of 90-degree rows
is six feet.
The redline site plan identifies the area of parking area and corresponding interior lot
landscaping which will be required to comply with applicable standards under the
nonconforming geographic proportionality requirement.
The preliminary site plan must identify the parking lot landscape calculations.
c. Plant Species — The landscape plan shall state how it conforms to the drought tolerant plant
species requirements of FWCC Section 22-1564(f).
d. Screening — Trash enclosures shall be screened from abutting properties and rights -of -way by a
100 percent sight -obscuring fence or wall, and appropriate landscape screen.
e. Significant Trees — A significant tree inventory must be provided with the land use application
per FWCC Section 22-1568(c)(2). Significant trees are generally defined as 12 inches in
diameter, or 37 inches in circumference, measured 41/2feet above the ground, and in good
health. Significant trees shall not include red alder, cottonwood, poplar, or big leaf maple. If the
development on the site requires removal of more than 75 percent of the significant trees on the
property, significant trees shall be replaced in an amount equal to 25 percent of the significant
trees, which existed on the site before development. Replacement tree standards are found in
FWCC Section 22-1568(c)(5). In the BP zone, significant trees in perimeter buffers must be
retained.
Landscape Modification — Opportunities to modify landscape requirements are available
pursuant to FWCC Section 22-1570.
ll. Design Guidelines — Projects subject to Process III review are subject to the provisions of FWCC
Article XIX, Community Design Guidelines (enclosed). Please review the enclosed design guidelines
for all applicable design elements. Following are key design guidelines, along with staff comments:
In cases of remodeling of existing developments, those guidelines that are, "reasonably related and
applicable to the area of expansion or remodeling" are applied to the project per FWCC Section 22-
1632. Generally, this proposal must address guidelines pertaining to facade treatment and pedestrian
circulation for this existing building near the area of expansion and for all new development. Refer
to the enclosed community design guideline code section. I would be glad to meet with you to
review community design guideline matters.
a. The design guidelines emphasize placing parking areas behind or beside structures in the OP
zone (FWCC Section 22-1638[b]).
b. Pedestrian connections from the sidewalk to the building and parking lots to the buildings must
be provided and delineated by separate paved routes pursuant to FWCC Section 22-1634(d).
With parking located between the street and building, pedestrian circulation is emphasized
(FWCC Section 22-1638[b]). Paint striping as a method of delineation is not permitted.
C. Two of the four -facade modulation and screening standards under FWCC Section 22-1635
must be implemented for facades of new buildings, which are longer than 60 feet and visible
from a public right-of-way or residential use or zoning district.
d. Pursuant to FWCC Section 22-1635(c), building facade articulation must be provided for all
facades visible from a right-of-way or public area, irrespective of item (c) above. The following
concepts should be included to minimize building mass and scale: step-up or step-down with
topography, pitched roofs, cornices, material, and color variation.
e. Pursuant to FWCC Section 22-1636(a), entrance facades shall front on, face, or be clearly
recognizable from the right-of-way; and should incorporate windows and other methods of
articulation.
Project designers shall strive for overall site design continuity by using similar elements
throughout the project (FWCC Section 22-1634[4]).
g. Natural site amenities such as views, trees, wetlands creeks, etc., should be incorporated into
the site design (FWCC Section 22-1634[a]).
ID#46555
h. Submittal of a colors and materials boards is required; and a colored street elevation sketch is
helpful for staff in conducting the design review.
All applicable design guidelines must be implemented in the project design. Please carefully
review the design guidelines and attach with the application how all of the design guidelines are
met.

After reviewing the materials submitted and a visit of the proposed site the following comments and findings
address issues that need to be resolved prior to developing the site:
LAND USE ISSUES
Storm water
Surface water runoff control and water quality, treatment will be required per the 1998 King County
Surface Water Design Manual (KCSWDM), and the City of Federal Way addendum to the 1998
KCSWDM. This project will meet the requirements for a full drainage review, at the time of the site
plan review submittal a narrative addressing the relevance to the project of the 8 core and the 5 special
requirements of the KCSWDM will be required. A Level I downstream analysis shall also be provided.
The city, has available 1"=100', 5 foot contour, planimetric maps that must be used for basin analysis.
Contact Kevin Peterson, Engineering Technician at 661-4126 for further details. The project willneed
to provide water quality treatment per the basic menu requirements of the KCSWDM.
For site plan review submittal, a conceptual drainage facility should be shown on the plan to a size and
configuration approximating the needs of the site.
Please note that the properties are located within the boundaries of the Lake #6latecomer's agreement.
Thus no detention is required on this site. The applicant will need to construct water quality facility
prior to discharging to Lake #6.
Water Quality
The storm drainage system serving the site may not conform to current treatment standards for water
quality control (FWCC Sec. 22-330 and 22-1196) , and may need to be retrofitted. Storm water runoff
from the site is to be controlled thorough the use of facilities designed and constructed in accordance
with the requirements of the 1998 King County Surface Water Management (KCSWM). These
facilities include, as a minimum, a biofil traiton swale, Filter strip, wet pond, wet vault, and others. The
site plan prepared for the project should address water quality for the entire site and depict existing and
proposed facilities.
Traffic/R-O-W Improvements
See attached Traffic Division memorandum from Hazem El-Assar, Traffic Engineer, for traffic related
items.
BUILDING PERMIT ISSUES
1. Technical Information Report MR) will need to be prepared for the project and submitted with the
building permit application. The TIR will require the signature/seal of a Professional Engineer licensed
in the State of Washington.
2. The applicant will need to provide a geotech report that addresses design pavement thickness for the
roadways.
3. The applicant shall reimburse the City for the cost of all required regulatory, warning and street name
signs that are installed prior to acceptance by the City of all other require improvements.
4. Copies of Public Works' standard checklists have been included to assist the applicant's engineer in
preparing the plans and the TIR.
5. Bonding will be required for all improvements associated with the plat. The bond amount shall be 120%
of the estimated cost of the improvements. Upon completion of the installation and final approval by
the Public Works inspector, the bond value will be reduced to 30% of the original amount for the two-
year maintenance period. An administrative fee deposit will need to accompany the bond to cover any
possible legal fees in the event the bond must be called.
6. The developer will be responsible for the maintenance of the storm drainage and street systems for the
two-year maintenance period. During that time, the Public Works inspector will make periodic visits to
assure developer's compliance with maintenance requirements.
When topographic survey information is shown on submitted plans, as may be required, the vertical
datum block shall include the phrase "DATUM: N.G.V.D.-29" or "DATUM: K.C.A.S." on all sheets
where elevations are called out.
8. All drawings shall be drafted/plotted on 24" x 36" mylar sheets with permanent black ink. Site plans
shall be drawn at a scale of 1"=20' or larger. Drawings submitted for plan review shall be printed on24"
x 36" paper.
9. Provide cut and fill quantities on the grading plan.

Based on my review of the submitted materials and a site visit, I have the following comments:
Traffic Impacts
The project is expected to impact some intersections by 10 or more PM peak hour trips. Therefore, a traffic
impact analysis {TTA) is required to assess project impacts and determine mitigation measures. A TIA
scooping sheet will be provided to the project traffic engineer upon receipt of a preliminary trip generation/
distribution study.
Street Improvements
Per FWCC Sec. 20-64, a binding site plan shall be reviewed for conformance with design criteria and
development standards set forth in sections 20-151 through 20-157, and 20-178 through 20-187. FWCC Sec.
20-151 specifies a maximum block perimeter of 1,320 for non -motorized facilities and 2,640 feet for streets.
To meet this requirement, the existing roadway connecting the southern access on 9"' Avenue S and 6th
Avenue S shall be improved to standard cross section R. In addition, this roadway shall be extended with the
same cross section R to the northwest corner of the property, so that it can be connected to S 342"d Street to
1" Way S in the future. Standard cross section R includes 40' pavement, 4' planter with trees, 6'sidewalk, and
streetlights on both sides. To accommodate these improvements, a 66' right-of-way dedication is required.
Per FWCC Sec. 22-1477, the Public Works Director may modify, defer, or waive the above requirements only
after consideration of a written request for specific reasons outlined under that code section.
Site Access and Circulation
In addition to the east -west internal roadway required in the above street improvements, a pedestrian
connection to 40 Place S shall be provided to improve pedestrian access and circulation.

AMBULATORY SERVICES BUILDING
St. Francis Hospital - Federal Way, Washington
STATEMENT OF ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN INTENT
The purpose of the Ambulatory Services Building is to provide St. Francis Hospital with
the ability to continue to meet the community's growing needs by expanding their
outpatient services. The uses of the three existing structures on the site will remain the
same. The services proposed for this new facility are the following: a new outpatient
Cancer Center, expanded outpatient Therapy and Rehabilitation services, expanded
Conference/Training facilities, a relocated state-of-the-art Ambulatory Surgery Center,
and shell space for future needs.
The overall design intent of the Ambulatory Services Building is to reuse the design
elements of the existing Hospital in new and creative ways in order for the entire facility
to appear as one. The overall size and mass of the new facility will also be consistent
with the existing Hospital. The primary design elements that will be utilized on the new
facility are the horizontal bands, the window wall and fixed window elements, and the
plaster -type texture.
The exterior color scheme will include the following: white pre -cast concrete panels with
a sand mixture for the main walls that will have a warm light cream color, white pre -cast
panels for accent wall elements, forest green window mullions that will be similar to the
existing Hospital, and light green insulated glazing that will also be similar to the existing
Hospital. The existing Hospital and adjacent Medical Office Building will be painted a
lighter color that will compliment the color of the new Ambulatory Services Building.
Extensive landscaping will be provided around the new facility, in particular in the new
Healing Garden that will be located between the existing Hospital and the new facility.
This garden will be available to patients and visitors alike for restful meditation in a
natural setting. As many of the existing trees as possible will be saved and will be
incorporated into the new landscaping concept.

Thank you for taking the time necessary today to meet with staff from St. Francis Hospital. As you know,
we have been working with the City of Federal Way since our pre -application meeting in August, 2000.
The communications we have had regarding the City's road request have been confusing. We appreciate
your efforts to clarify the City's intent as well as your flexibility in exploring the different options that
may be available.
We think you appreciate our constraints in looking to improve services at St. Francis for community
residents and look forward to a quick response from your office so we may make necessary decisions on
this important project. If it would be helpful to meet with us again before Christmas to discuss
alternatives and expedite your response, please let us know. We look forward to hearing from you soon.
Happy Holidays.
Sincerely,
Laure Caillouette Nichols

The purpose of this letter is to provide the City with a description of the use of the proposed Ambulatory
Surgery Center (ASC) in the new Ambulatory Services Building Addition (ASB).
OCCUPANCY CLASSIFICATION
In regards to the ASC, the current intent is to relocate the existing ASC located in the medical office
building that is situated to the east of St. Francis Hospital into the new ASB. The ASC will be used for
outpatient services only and will not be operational on a 24-hour basis. These types of services and hours
of operation are consistent with Section 304.1.8 of the 1997 edition of the Uniform Building Code as well
as with the definition of "Office Use" indicated in Supplement No. 23 of the City of Federal Way Zoning
Code. The application for the Master Land Use Permit for this project indicates that the main building of
the ASB will have a "B" occupancy with Type II — One Hour construction. Only the connection building
that contains the vertical circulation elements (elevators and exit stairs) will be an "I-1.1" occupancy
constructed to Type I — FR standards.
ALLOWABLE BUILDING HEIGHT
In :,egards to the allowable, buil.rlip -* height, the proposed building heights are consistent with those of the
existing adjacent Hospital. Supplement No. 18 (Rev) of the City of Federal Way Zoning Code indicates in
Section 22-826 "Office/Retail" that the maximum above average building elevation is 55 feet. Section 22-
831 "Hospitals, Convalescent Centers, Nursing Homes" indicates that the maximum above average
building height is 35 feet. Sections 22-826 and 22-831 indicate that the maximum allowable height can be
increased to 70 feet and 55 feet respectively if five conditions are met. The proposed ASB meets four of
the requirements for increased building height in both categories, but does not meet Item Lb that pertains
to the proximity to a residential zone. A residential zone exists to the southwest of the proposed ASB and
is approximately 106' from the nearest point of the proposed ASB.

Attached is the information that you requested. We have been trying to get an interpretation on the occupancy from
Dept. of Health regarding the ambulatory surgery center because it is on the border of a 13 or 1-1.2 occupancy. I was
hoping to have that interpretation before the pre-app meeting. but we won't be able to meet with them until 9/21- IN
either case, the ambulatory function does not change and about the only construction item that will change is the type
of mechanical system for the ASC.
Another person from Franciscan Health System will be attending the meeting tomorrow, which will result in 5 people
from our side attending. Your letter dated 8/9/00 indicated that we should let you know if more than 4 people would be
attending.

COMMENTS:
A developer extension agreement will be required to relocate existing mainline water and sewer facilities and
install new fire protection facilities to serve the proposed structure. It is recommended that the Owner apply
separately to the District for this process at the same time formal application is submitted to the City of Federal
Way to avoid delays in construction. Please allow 3 to 4 months for plan review and approval.
The District's Capital Facilities Charges are calculated on the basis of Equivalent Residential Units (ERU).
Residential equivalency for Office use is calculated as 0.3 ERU per 1,000 square feet of building area as an initial
estimate. Actual water consumption will be monitored and additional charges may be assessed within five (5)
years of original connection. The District's current Capital Facilities Charges are $3,072/ERU for water and
$2,720/ERU for sewer.

This conceptual drainage report was prepared for the 25,000-square-foot addition proposed at the
southwestern corner of the St. Francis Hospital complex in Federal Way (see Figure 1, Vicinity
Map). The expansion involves constructing a new ambulatory services facility and related utility
extensions and parking lots. The report is part of the building's pre -application submittal.
Federal Way adopted King County's 1998 Surface Water Design Manual (KCSWDM) as part of
their drainage ordinance. This report demonstrates how the proposed drainage facilities comply
with the KCSWDM requirements. In particular, it provides a preliminary design of the water
quality enhancement facilities and discusses the justification for using the regional detention
facility. During the design process, we've drawn on several resources related to the project and
surrounding areas:

The building expansion will extend from the southerly face of the existing hospital structure and
displace two parking lots. To offset these losses and accommodate new parking demands, a lot
will be built on Tract B of the West Campus Business and Office Park immediately west of the
hospital. As planned, the lot will provide 207 parking spaces.
-1-
SITE CONDITIONS
With the exception of the area of the new parking lot, the existing site (see Figure 2, Existing
Basin Map) is developed and includes parking areas, access drives, sidewalks and landscaping.
Consequently, there is no real change to this part of the project site. There is little topographic
relief on this part of the site and runoff is collected in an enclosed storm sewer and directed to a
regional detention facility identified as Lake No. 6 on Figure 21.
The new parking lot is sited on a vacant lot covered with shrubs and young, second -growth
timber. The new parking lot, therefore, converts the surface from pervious to impervious. The
topography is defined by a small knob at the west edge of Tract B and slopes east-southeast
toward the hospital at about six percent. There are no distinct channels or other signs of
concentrated runoff on this part of the site. Instead, rain sheet flows onto the hospital grounds
before entering the collection system and Lake No. 6.
DOWL Engineers conducted a downstream analysis as part of the Technical Information Report
(TIR) prepared for the St. Francis Medical Pavilion. Runoff from both projects leaves the site
through the Lake 6 outlet structure and flows into the same downstream receiving water. As
such, no further analysis is warranted for this project.
The site is part of the Hylebos Creek drainage basin that, prior to Federal Way's incorporation,
King County targeted with basin -specific development guidelines. While the site is no longer a
part of unincorporated King County, the Hylebos Creek Basin Plan included in Reference 2 of the
KCSWDM makes several recommendations worth consideration. A brief review indicates the
following two guidelines are relevant to this project:
BW-1, Basinwide Onsite Detention Standard - Replaces the old 7-day storm event
detention standard with the Level 1 Flow Control standard now in effect under the
KCSWDM. The project proposal addresses this through the existing Lake 6 regional
detention pond.
BW-9, Seasonal Clearing and Grading Restrictions - The old site -specific grading work
exemptions are replaced with KCSWDM Appendix D requirements for erosion and
sediment control. These requirements will be incorporated in the site engineering plans.
King County's Sensitive Area map folio shows Lake 6 discharges almost directly to a wetland
(Hylebos #16). Further downstream (south) across South 348th Street is the West Hylebos
wetland (#18), a Class 1 wetland of major regional significance, Due to the unavailability of the
1983 wetlands inventory, documentation of these wetlands is not included in this report. The map
folio also identifies part of the water course downstream from Lake 6 as an unclassified stream.

CONCEPTUAL DRAINAGE DESIGN
Current Federal Way codes dictate that both the peak runoff control and water quality
enhancement facilities be designed in accordance with the 1998 KCSWDM. The maps that
identify the detention and treatment standards don't extend beyond unincorporated King County
(i.e., Federal Way). As a result, a certain amount of judgement is necessary to arrive at the
appropriate standards.
Flow Control
The old Hylebos Creek Basin Plan identified specific detention standards for the project area
before Federal Way incorporated. As discussed, it required detaining the 7-day storm and Iimiting
its discharge to no more than the existing 2- and 10-year peak rates. The current KCSWDM
replaced this requirement with the Level 1 Flow Control standard, and it applies to the site. In
support of this, King County's Flow Control Applications Map shows all adjacent parts of
unincorporated King County within a Level 1 Flow Control Area.
Lake 6 is part of a network of regional detention facilities within the Hylebos Creek basin. It was
sized to limit the impacts of development in a 71-acre basin that includes the St. Francis campus
and the project site. The design, detailed in the TIR for the Medical Pavilion, assumed
development increased impervious surface by over ten acres.
The proposal increases impervious surface by 1.77 acres from 1.57 acres to 3.34 acres. Because
Lake 6 can accommodate up to a 10-acre increase in impervious surface, the regional facility is
adequate and no additional flow control facilities are needed for this project.
WaterQualily
The KCSWDM's Water Quality Applications Map shows that those parts of unincorporated King
County adjacent to the project site are all within Basic Water Quality Treatment Areas. This is
the standard applied to the project, and we've elected to use a basic sand filter to fulfil this
condition (See Figure 3, Conceptual Site plan and Figure 4, Storm Water Treatment Schematic).
Sand filters require a mechanism to remove suspended sediments from runoff. The KCSWDM
provides two alternatives; a settling basin or a second water quality facility. We've opted to
install a basin upstream of the filter. The basin must incorporate the following design elements:
• Provide a treatment volume equal to 75% of the mean annual storm,
• 3:1 length to width ratio, and
• Depth between 3 and 6 feet.
Equation (6-13) of the KCSWDM defines the mean annual storm as
Vr = (0.90A; +0.25Atg + 0.10Atf) x (R)
-3-
`A' represents the square -foot area of impervious, till grass and till forest respectively, and `R' is
the precipitation from the mean annual storm in feet.
Vr = {(0.90 x 145,485sf) +(0.25 x 61,248sf) + (0.10 x Osf)) x (0.039')
= 5,700 cubic feet
The basin volume is equal to 75% of this volume, or 4,275 cubic feet. This translates to a 4-foot
basin with1,070 square feet of surface area. The pre -settling basin depicted on Figure 3 provides
1,170 square feet of surface.
The basin discharges into a catch basin with a spill control tee that prevents floating debris and oil
from passing into the sand filter. The sand filter design follows the outline in the KCSVWDM and
is predicated on King County's runoff model, KCRTS, which requires certain information:
King County rainfall parameters:
Soil and Site Characteristics:
SeaTac region, scale factor 1.0
Till Grass Area 1.41 acres
Impervious Area 2.19 acres2
Total Area 3.60 acres
The KCSWDM provides two design alternatives. Due to the preliminary nature of the site plan
and the likelihood of its changing, we've elected to use the simple sizing method that produces a
minimum required surface area based on the above rainfall and site data and an assumed depth
water over the sand media.
Aaf = (0.70Cs) x (T;A; + T,gAtg + T.gAog)
= 0.7 x 1.0 x {2.192(1140) + 1.406(240) + 0 }
= 1,985 square feet
The 2,000-square foot filter shown on Figure 3 assumes a maximum of 3-foot-storage depth over
the top of the sand media.
2 The 2.19 acres represents that part of the project's new, pollution generating impervious surface
that reaches the sand filter.

AMBULATORY SERVICES BUILDING
St. Francis Hospital - Federal Way, Washington
STATEMENT OF ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN INTENT
The purpose of the Ambulatory Services Building is to provide St. Francis Hospital with
the ability to continue to meet the community's growing needs by expanding their
outpatient services. The uses of the three existing structures on the site will remain the
same. The services proposed for this new facility are the following: a new outpatient
Cancer Center, expanded outpatient Therapy and Rehabilitation services, expanded
Conference/Training facilities, a relocated state-of-the-art Ambulatory Surgery Center,
and shell space for future needs.
The overall design intent of the Ambulatory Services Building is to reuse the design
elements of the existing Hospital in new and creative ways in order for the entire facility
to appear as one. The overall size and mass of the new facility will also be consistent
with the existing Hospital. The primary design elements that will be utilized on the new
facility are the horizontal bands, the window wall and fixed window elements, and the
plaster -type texture.
The exterior color scheme will include the following: white pre -cast concrete panels with
a sand mixture for the main walls that will have a warm light cream color, white pre -cast
panels for accent wall elements, forest green window mullions that will be similar to the
existing Hospital, and light green insulated glazing that will also be similar to the existing
Hospital. The existing Hospital and adjacent Medical Office Building will be painted a
lighter color that will compliment the color of the new Ambulatory Services Building.
Extensive landscaping will be provided around the new facility, in particular in the new
Healing Garden that will be located between the existing Hospital and the new facility.
This garden will be available to patients and visitors alike for restful meditation in a
natural setting. As many of the existing trees as possible will be saved and will be
incorporated into the new landscaping concept.
