Federal June 17, 2008 Ms. Emily Buchwalter Medici Architects 2233 102nd Place SE Bellevue, WA 98004 CITY HALL 33325 8th Avenue South y Mailing Address: PO Box 9718 Federal Way, WA 98063-9718 (253) 835-7000 www.cityoffederalway.com Re: File No. 08-102254-00-AD; WAIVER OF PREAPPLICATION CONFERENCE APPROVED Cottages at Redondo (aka: Sawyer Cottage Housing); No Site Address Dear Ms. Buchwalter: I am in receipt of your letter requesting a waiver from the preapplication conference process. The letter was prepared because the one-year deadline from a previous preapplication conducted in December 2006 has expired. You are now preparing to submit for the Process III land use review for the proposed cottage housing demonstration project. Your letter states that there have not been any zoning or building code changes or additions with regards to cottage housing since the date of the preapplication conference; and that no new information or changes to the proposal would come from having another preapplication conference. Staff reviewed your request and identified a change to private street standards implemented subsequent to your December 2006 preapplication conference. Please note that the second bullet point under Traffic Division comment #4 of the December 27, 2006, preapplication letter should be replaced with the following: "Internal roadway access to more than four lots shall consist of a 20-foot street with one five-foot sidewalk in a 25-foot minimum ingress/egress and utilities easement." Other than the above change, the comments in the December 27, 2006, letter are still valid. Therefore, your request to waive the preapplication conference is approved as provided under Federal Way City Code (FWCC) Section 22-1653. Please contact Senior Planner Janet Shull at 253-835-2644 if you have any questions about this letter.

The project had a pre-ap in December of 2006. Therefore, a new preapplication conference is required unless the Director of Community Development agrees to the requested waiver. In looking back through the pre-ap letter that was issued, the only item that jumps out at me as having changed is private road standards for small lot, zero -lot, and cottage housing. The proposal has not changed significantly with regard to overall site plan. Please review and let me know if you feel another preapplication conference is necessary. If changed circumstances are minimal, one option is to incorporate reference to such changes in a letter granting waiver of the preapplication conference. Please advise on this matter by Friday, May 30, 2008 if possible.

We request amendments to two of those conditions; "Section 2, 3., c., a. ("Prior to occupancy of any residential building on the site, South 340'b Street from Pacific Highway South to the intersection of 13" Place South extended, and the roadway within the residential area connecting to South 3361' Street, shall be constructed to meet all applicable standards.") and, Section 2, 3., c., b.

Our requested amendments would allow phasing of the infrastructure commensurate with the phasing of the townhome development and the phasing of the mixed use development.
