Re: File #07-104531-00-PC, PREAPPLICATION CONFERENCE SUMMARY
Federal Way Plat; No Site Address, Federal Way
Dear 1&. Tremaine:
Thank you for participating in the preapplication conference with the City of Federal Way's Development
Review Committee (DRC) held September 6, 2007. 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 DRC. 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. Some sections of the Federal Way City Code (FWCC) and relevant information
handouts are enclosed with this letter. Please be advised, this letter does not represent all applicable
codes. In preparing your formal application, please refer to the complete FWCC and other relevant codes
for all additional requirements that may apply to your project.
The key contact for your project is Senior Planner Isaac Conlen isaac.conlen ci oftederalwa .com, or
253-835-2643). For specific technical questions about your project, please contact the appropriate DRC
representative as listed below. Otherwise, any general questions about the preapplication and permitting
process can be referred to your key contact.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The proposal is to subdivide two lots totaling 7.49 acres into 28 single family lots; a stormwater detention
facility will be provided and a fee in lieu will substitute for on -site open space. Current zoning is
Residential Single -Family (RS 15.0). The proposed subdivision is contingent upon a successful
comprehensive plan amendment and rezone of the property to RS 7.2. A secondary option (option B) of
subdividing the lots into 15 single family lots with a stormwater detention facility and fee in lieu for open
space has also been proposed. This option is based upon existing RS 15.0 zoning and does not require a
comprehensive plan amendment or rezone.

preapplication conference. Each section should be read thoroughly. If you have questions, please contact
the representative listed for that section.
PLANNING DIVISION (Isaac Conlen, 253-835-2643, isaac.conlen@cityoffederalway.com)
a) Zoning and Comprehensive Plan Designations — The site is zoned RS 15.0. The minimum lot size
for each lot is 15,000 square. feet. The comprehensive plan designation is medium -density single-
family.
The City will be evaluating the subject properties in conjunction with surrounding properties for a
potential area -wide comprehensive plan amendment to Single Family High Density and
corresponding rezone to either RS 9.6 or RS 7.2. The proposed subdivision to 28 lots is contingent
on rezoning to RS 7.2. Option B does not require a rezone. Timing to evaluate and potentially enact
these changes is in the range of eight months to one year.

b) Preliminary Plat Review — Under FWCC Chapter 20, "Subdivisions," preliminary plats are subject
to City Council approval following a public hearing and recommendation from the Federal Way
Hearing Examiner. The preliminary plat is also subject to environmental review under the State
Environmental Policy Act (SEPA) prior to the Hearing Examiner review, The preliminary plat
application fee is $7,065.50, plus $72.50 per acre. The SEPA checklist application fee is $869.50.
Separate fees are required for Public Works engineering review and inspection. The application must
be prepared in accordance with the submittal requirements listed in the subdivision code and the
enclosed information bulletin.
With the application, provide three sets of stamped, addressed envelopes for property owners within
300 feet of the subject site. Include the City of Federal Way return address (PO Box 9718) on all
envelopes. For our records, provide a list of the property owners within 300 feet of the subject site
and provide a corresponding parcel map showing the 300-foot radius from the subject site. A
handout detailing procedures for obtaining mailing labels from the City is enclosed.
c) Open Space Requirements — Pursuant to FWCC Section 20-155(b), a subdivision must provide open
space in the amount of 15 percent of the gross land area of the subdivision site. A fee -in -lieu
payment may be made to satisfy open space requirements at the discretion of the City's Parks
Director after consideration of the City's overall park plan, quality, location, and service area of the
open space that would otherwise be provided within the project. The fee -in -lieu of open space shall
be equal to 15 percent of the most recent assessed value of the property (at time of final plat). The
City Parks Department has indicated strong support for accepting fee in lieu for this project.
d) Significant Trees, Vegetation, and Grading — All existing significant trees and natural vegetation
must be retained on the site to be subdivided, except that which will be removed for improvements
or grading as shown on approved engineering plans. Clearing and grading of individual future lots is
not permitted during construction of the plat infrastructure, except in locations to be determined by
the City that present extreme topography or other unusual conditions. A preliminary clearing and
grading plan shall be submitted as part of preliminary plat application (FWCC Section 20-179). It is
the applicant's responsibility to demonstrate that the grading limits are the minimum necessary to
accommodate infrastructure improvements.
The City is considering some text amendments to the above noted vegetation retention and grading
requirements. Those requirements noted above may be modified in some way, but it is too early to
provide details regarding the effect of potential revisions to the code.
Trees defined as significant by the FWCC (Section 22-1568) shall be identified and retained or
replaced (with new evergreen trees a minimum of 10 feet in height, or deciduous trees with a
minimum three inch caliper) at the rate of at least 25 percent of the significant trees on the site.
Removal of significant trees that are located within areas to be developed for rights -of -way or other
plat utilities are exempt from the 25 percent retention calculation. The application must include an
inventory of significant trees presently on the site and plat design shall accommodate existing
significant trees to the maximum extent possible.
A landscape plan prepared by a licensed landscape architect, and consistent with FWCC Section 20-
186, must be submitted with the preliminary plat application. The plan shall identify the following:
significant trees to be removed and retained; street trees along the internal plat streets; and
File #07-104531-00-PC Doc ID 42088
Mr. Ron Tremaine

landscaping around all sides of the proposed detention pond. Landscaping between any street and a
storm drainage tract must be a minimum of five feet of screening landscaping and shall be in a tract
owned and maintained by the homeowners' association.
e) Geologically Hazardous Areas — Portions of the site are mapped as erosion hazard areas. The east
portion of the site appears to be relatively steep and may meet the criteria of a landslide hazard area.
A geotechnical report that identifies any geologically hazardous areas on -site and makes
recommendations for construction practices and mitigation measures, if necessary, is required. See
FWCC Section 22-1286.
f) Storm Drainage — All facilities established for storm drainage purposes shall be installed in separate
tract(s), shall not be part of individual building lots, and shall be landscaped as discussed above.
g) School Mitigation Fees — Payment of a school impact mitigation fee is required for each single-
family residence at the time of issuance of individual residential building permits. The current
single-family residential mitigation fee is $3,018, plus an administrative fee of $151 per unit. This
fee is due at the time of building permit submittal and is adjusted annually by the Federal Way
Public School District.
h) School Access —A copy of the application packet has been forwarded to the Federal Way School
District for review of school pedestrian access and circulation. A memo from the school district will
be forwarded to you upon receipt. A school access analysis is required in conjunction with the
preliminary plat application.
i) Existing Improvements — Any existing structures on the subject property must be depicted on the plat
map and must meet the minimum FWCC setbacks from new property lines if they will be retained.
Specifically, a 20-foot front setback from the new road right-of-way and five-foot minimum side
yard and five-foot minimum rear yard setback must be provided. Alternatively, the existing
structures on the site may be removed, which appears to be the preferred option in this case.
j) Final Plat — The City requires a $2,666.50 application fee for final plat (adjusted annually).
Substantial completion of the plat infrastructure must occur prior to submittal and processing of the
final plat. The City allows bonding of only minor improvements identified in FWCC Section 20-135 in
order to process the final plat. FWCC Section 20-136 requires City Council review of the final plat.
k) Timeframes — Under FWCC procedural guidelines, the City will determine if an application is
complete within 28 days of submittal and identify what, if any, additional information is required for
the application to be deemed complete. Regulatory reform does not establish timelines for
subdivision review, although the City strives to process environmental applications within 90 days of
complete application. City review is suspended at any time that the City requests additional
information from the applicant. Throughout project review, the applicant will be notified in writing
of the status of the preliminary plat application. The applicant may also request and pay for 15-Day
Technical Review,' if available (dependant on work load capacity).
See the information bulletin, 15-Day Technical Review Process.

September 14, 2007
1) Submittal Prior to Zoning Change — If you decide to pursue your'subdivision proposal based on RS
7.2 zoning, you will not be able to submit your application until such time as the zoning change
becomes effective.
m) Cluster Subdivision —This project may apply for approval as a cluster, subdivision. Cluster
subdivisions allow flexibility in lot sizes and are generally beneficial where on -site critical areas
constrain developable area: Fee -in -lieu is not available for cluster subdivisions.
n) Limitations = In accordance with code requirements, the applicant must complete the plat
improvements within five years of the preliminary plat approval, or the decision is void. Provisions
for extension of these timeframes are set forth in code.
o) Plat Name —Please choose a unique name for this project before submitting your preliminary plat
application. Otherwise, we end up with. too many projects called `"Federal Way" this and that, which
causes confusion on our end.

necessary beyond those identified in the TIP to meet the City's adopted level -of -service standard are
required to be provided by the applicant to meet concurrency requirements of the Growth
Management Act.
Street Frontage Improvements
Per FWCC Section 22-1474, the applicant/owner would be expected to construct street improvements
consistent with the planned roadway cross -sections as shown in Map III-6 of the Federal Way
Comprehensive Plan (FWCP) and Capital Improvement Program (CIP) shown as Table III-19. Based
on the materials submitted, staff conducted a limited analysis to determine the required street
improvements in meeting the FWCC. Based on the analysis and FWCC, the applicant would be
expected to construct improvements on the following streets to the City's planned roadway cross -
sections:
SW 366"' Street is planned as a Type "S" street, consisting of a 36-foot street with curb and
gutter, four -foot planter strips with street trees, five-foot sidewalks, and three-foot utility
strip in a 60-foot right-of-way. Assuming a symmetrical cross section, 30-foot right-of-way
dedication and half street improvements are required with 20-foot minimum pavement and
one -foot utility strip, in lieu of three feet, plus a three-foot easement. Right-of-way
dedication and improvements are required from 6"' Avenue SW to the east property line.
Also, provide a 25-foot corner radius at SW 366`h Street and 6"' Avenue SW, which must be
dedicated as right-of-way. If access is from the east (0 Avenue South), dedication and
improvements are required to the nearest improved street starting from the west property
line.
Per drawing 3-1A in the Public Works Development Standards, internal streets shall be
planned as Type "W" streets,. consisting of 28-feet of paving with curb and gutter, four -foot
planter strips with street trees, five-foot sidewalks, and streetlights in a 52-foot right-of-way.
Full street improvements are required, except the portion of the street between 6a' Avenue
SW and the east property line of parcel #3021049038, where half street improvements with
20-foot minimum asphalt, curb, gutter, four -foot planter strip, five-foot sidewalks, three-foot
utility strip, and streetlights is required. A 25-foot corner radius at the intersection of the
internal street and 61h Avenue SW must be dedicated as right-of-way. Also, see the access
and traffic circulation sections of this letter, item #2.
2. The 15 lot proposal does not require a second access. If there is no second access, a 30- foot right-of-
way dedication is required on the frontage of the south end property line on SW 366' Street and half
street improvements. A temporary turnaround is required at the south property line. The internal
street shall extend from SW 366"' Street to the north property line. All the other requirements are the
same as the 28 lot proposal.
3. The owner may be required to dedicate additional right-of-way to accommodate additional turn lane
improvements if required by the Transportation Impact Analysis (TIA) and/or property corner radius.
Please show existing and required right-of-way dedication on the plans. Right-of-way dedication shall
be conveyed to the City through a Statutory Warrant Deed and must have clear title prior to recording.

September 14, 2007
4. Per FWCC Section 22-1477, the applicant may make a written request to the Public Works Director
to modify, defer, or waive the required street improvements. Information about a right-of-way
modification request is available through the assigned planner. Such a request has a set review.fee.
Access and Traffic Circulation
1. Access management standards are based on roadway safety and capacity requirements. FWCC
Section 22-1543 provides access standards for streets based on planned roadway cross -sections.
Please note that access classifications are per Drawing 3-1A in the Public Works Development
Standards.
2. FWCC Section 20-151 and FWCP Policy TP21 require block perimeters no longer than 1,320 feet for
non -motorized trips and 2,640 feet for streets. Therefore, north/south connection along the east side
of the property (roadway cross section W) would be required. The north/south internal street requires
extending to the north property line for future extension and to meet block perimeter standards and a
temporary cul-de-sac.
3. Per FWCC Section 22-1496, the applicant would be expected to construct a 20-foot paved access,
curb, gutter, sidewalk, and street lighting to the nearest intersecting improved right-of-way for second
access from SW 36e Street.
Other Comments
1. Please utilize roadway cross-section Z for cul-de-sac terminus dimensions (53-foot radius).
2. Please note that the maximum allowable grade for City streets/access driveways is 15 percent, or as
approved by the fire department.
