• Planning Division
All residential subdivisions are required to provide open space in the arnount of 15 percent of the
gross land area of the subdivision site per FWRC 18.55.060(2). All or some of the open space
requirement may be satisfied by a fee -in -lieu payment.
■ Public Works Development Services Division
There are identified Erosion and Landslide Hazard Areas downstream of this project site.
Development of the single-family homes will require construction of detention facilities to control
surface water runoff from new impervious surfaces. See additional information under the
Development Services Division comments.
There is an existing 12-inch diameter culvert that discharges onto the project site from Marine View
Drive. This pipe will need to be extended and connected into a downstream drainage system, which
will likely require the procurement of an easement from the property owner to the north. Due to the
aforementioned downstream Erosion and Landslide Hazard areas, some form of in -line energy
dissipation will be required in this tightline system.
s Public Works Traffic Division
■ Transportation Concurrency Management (FWRC 19.90) — Transportation concurrency
permit with applicaliun fee of $1,669 (1 - 10 Trips).
■ Traffic Impact Fees (FWRC 19.91) — Traffic impact fees are required for residential dwelling
units and will be assessed at building permit stage.
■ Frontage Improvements (FWRC 19.135.040) — Construct street frontage improvements along
the property frontage on Marine View Drive.
■ Access Management (FWRC 19.135.260) — The development shall meet access management
standards.

Land Use Issues — Stormwater
Surface water runoff control for the new homes will be required per the 2016 King County Surface
Water Design Manual (KCSWDM). This project meets the requirements for a Full Drainage Review.
At the time of preliminary short plat 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 downstream analysis shall also be provided in the preliminary
TIR.
2. The project lies within a Conservation flow control area, thus the applicant must design the flow
control facility(ies) to meet this performance criteria. In addition to flow control facilities, Best
Management Practices (BMP's) are required as outlined in the KCSWDM.
3. If the detention facility is to be shared by both residences, it should be placed in a separate tract, with
ownership and maintenance responsibilities identified on the short plat documents. Underground
facilities are allowed only with approval from the City of Federal Way Public Works Department.
4. The detention facilities will need to be designed as part of the short plat engineering process, in order
to determine the geometries and area needed for the storm water tract. Show the proposed location
and dimensions of the detention on the preliminary plans.
Right -of -Way Improvements
See the Traffic Division comments from Soma Chattopadhyay, Traffic Engineer, for traffic related
items.
2. All stormwater treatment and detention requirements outlined above may apply to any improvements
within the public right-of-way.

3. FWRC 19.135.280 requires that driveways serving residential uses may not be located closer than 25
feet to any street intersection. Lots and intersections within new subdivisions or short plats must be
designed to meet this standard.
Engineering (EN) Permit Issues
1. Engineered plans are required for filling and grading, storm drainage, and road construction work.
Plans must be reviewed and approved by the City. Engineering review fees are $1,669.00 for the first
12 hours of review for Short Plats and $139.00 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. In addition to engineering approval, projects that will be filling or grading in the area of the future
building pads are required to obtain a separate grading permit from the Building Department.
3. The Federal Way Public Works Development Standards Manual (including standard detail drawings,
standard notes, and engineering checklists) is available on the City's website at
http://www.cilyoffederalwgy.com/index.asi2x?nid= 171 to assist the applicant's engineer in preparing
the plans and TIR.
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.
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.

Transportation Concurrency Analysis (FWRC 19.90)
1. Based on the submitted materials for 2 lots short plat, the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE)
Trip Generation - 106' Edition, land use code 210, the proposed project is estimated to generate
18-101365-00-PC Doc ID:77535
Hans Korve
April 25, 2018
Page 7
approximately 3 new weekday PM peak hour trips. Alternatively, the applicant may submit a site
specific trip generation study for the proposed development.
2. A concurrency permit is required for this development project. The PW Traffic Division will perform
concurrency analysis to determine if adequate roadway capacity exists during the weekday PM peak
period to accommodate the proposed development. 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).
3. The estimated fee for the concurrency permit application is $1,669 (1 - 10 Trips). This fee is an
estimate and based on the materials submitted for the preapplication meeting. The concurrency
application fee must be paid in full at the time the concurrency permit 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 2 single family lots, the estimated total traffic impact fee is $7,750.
The actual fee will be assessed and collected from the applicant when the building permit is issued, using
the fee schedule then in effect (FWRC 19.100.070 3(c)). At any time prior to building permit issuance,
the applicant may request to defer to final building inspection the payment of a transportation impact fee
for a single-family residential dwelling unit (FWRC 19.100.075). If this option is selected, a covenants
prepared by the city to enforce payment of the deferred fees will be recorded at the applicant's expense.
Refer to defer payment of impact fee code for process.
Street Frontage Improvements (FWRC 19.135)
Based on the available records and the submitted materials, it appears that this proposal meets the 25
percent threshold criteria for requiring street frontage improvements as identified in the FWRC
19.135.030. The applicant/owner may submit an appraisal for the subject property, or King County
Assessor's records may be used. The Public Works Development Services Division will evaluate the
submitted appraisal data to determine if the project actually meets the City's 25 percent threshold for
requiring street frontage improvements.
2. The applicant/owner would be expected to construct street improvements consistent with the planned
roadway cross -sections as shown in Map III-4 in Chapter III of the Federal Way Comprehensive Plan
(FWCP) and Capital Improvement Program (CIP) shown as Table III-10 (FWRC 19.135.040). Based
on the materials submitted, staff conducted a limited analysis to determine the required street
improvements. The applicant would be expected to construct improvements on the following streets
to the City's planned roadway cross -sections:
3. Marine View Drive is Local Street planned as a Type "T" street, consisting of a 28-foot street with
curb and gutter, 5-foot sidewalks, and street lights in a 60-foot right-of-way (ROW). Assuming a
symmetrical cross section, half street improvements are required as measured from the street
centerline OR far side edge of travel way with no ROW dedication.
18- 101 365-00-PC Doc ID:77535
Hans Korve
April 25, 2018
Page 8
4. The applicant may make a written request to the Public Works Director to modify, defer, or waive the
required street improvements (FWRC 19.135.070). Inforrnalion about right-of-way modification
requests is available through the Public Works Development Services Division. These modification
requests have a nominal review fee currently at $278.00.
5. 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 (FWRC 19.135)
1. Access management standards are based on roadway safety and capacity requirements. FWRC
19.135.280 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. Please show all neighboring driveways within 50 feet of the proposed driveway(s).
3. Driveways that serve only residential use may not be located closer than 25 ft. to any street
intersection or driveway.
The director may grant a modification administratively to reduce spacing standards by up to 20 percent of
the tabular values with supporting documentation (FWRC 19,135.290). Please note that these
modification requests have a nominal review fee of $160. Once preliminary traffic queuing analysis has
been completed, the applicant's traffic engineer may submit a written request for access modification if
desired.

Marine View Drive located on Parcel
as Ravalcaba Short Plat. . The site
Existing Conditions: The parcel is approximately 31,000 sqft (0.7 acres) and is lightly
covered with meadow grasses and blackberries. Single family residences and Marine View
Drive, to the south; contribute to 8 acres of area which drain to a 12" diameter culvert. This
pipe conveys water from the north to the south side under Marine View Drive SW and onto
the subject parcel. The runoff sheet flows across the site and collects at the middle of the
single family residence immediately downstream of the project site. The conveyance
systems downstream of the subject parcel include storm drain pipes and ditches.
Proposed Conditions: The applicant proposes to fill the southern half of each lot to make
direct access to Marine View Drive practical. The existing access is from the east through a
joint use driveway which is partially inside an existing access easement. Additional fill
material is proposed in the rear of the lots to imitate the elevations of the parcels to the west.
Two proposed single-family residences would replace the existing vegetation with lawns and
approximately 4,000 sf of impervious surface per parcel for a total of 8,000 sf of impervious
surface. A Geotech report has not yet been completed. It is hoped that drywells or other
similar BMP will be utilized to address the new impervious surfaces. If not, the storm water
will be collected on -site and released at a pre -determined rate.
The Upstream basin flow can be addressed by a bypass conveyance system installed to
collect the runoff at SW Marine Drive and connect to the existing system in 296th St.
Questions:
Any issues with the proposed fill on site and access from Marine View Drive?
Any issues with the proposed bypass?
0 Applicant proposes to pay park fee. Any isse?
