Natalie Kamieniecki, 253-835-2638, natalie.kamienieeki@cityoffederalway.com
1. Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Designation — The city's comprehensive plan designation for the
subject property is Single -Family Residential — High Density. The properly is currently zoned Single -
Family Residential (RS) 7.2.
Note that any area established as an ingress/egress easement, flagpole, access panhandle, or access
tract for each property must be deducted from the underlying parcel lot size per FWRC 19.05.120,
definition of "Lot Area." Please include this "net" lot area on the lot closure calculations and short
plat document.
2. Buildable Lands Calculation — Please provide the following information in tabular form on the site plan:
3. Short Plat Process —Short plats are the division or redivision of land into nine or fewer lots, tracts,
parcels, sites, or divisions for the purpose of sale, lease, or transfer as defined in FWRC Title 18.
Pursuant to FWRC 18.30.010, short plat applications are administratively processed through the
Department of Community Development. The administrative review process requires that the
Director of Community Development issue a decision on the short subdivision request and confirm
conformance with FWRC 18.30.110(2). Public notice of the complete short plat proposal is required
per FWRC 18.30.080, and a 15-day public comment period is provided. However, no public hearing
will be required unless an appeal is filed.

If the director issues an approval of the short plat, the approval typically includes and requires
construction of associated infrastructure improvements. As required by the City Public Works
Department, all infrastructure improvements must be designed, reviewed, and constructed prior to
recording the short plat.
Prior to construction of short plat improvements, engineering approval must be granted by the Public
Works Department. Please see Kevin Peterson's comments below for specific information regarding
engineering requirements.
A master land use application and short plat handout are enclosed; relevant code sections can be
accessed from www.codepublisbing.com/WA/FederalWay.
4. State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA) —The proposal is intended to create three dwelling units and
is therefore considered exempt from SEPA review pursuant to FWRC 14.15.030(1)(a) and WAC 197-
11-800(b)(i).
5. Public Notice— The city will prepare and the applicant will post a notice board or boards on the
subject property. Copies of the Notice of Application will also be posted at the city's designated public
notice areas and published in the Federal Way Mirror. One set of public mailing envelopes must be
submitted with the application. A handout regarding how to obtain mailing labels is enclosed.
6. Single -Family Residential Regulations —Future residences must conform to the following bulk and
dimensional requirements of FWRC 19.200.010, "Detached Dwelling Units": front yard — 20 feet;
side yard — 5 feet; and rear yard — 5 feet.
Lot coverage for residential uses is limited to 60 percent and includes all impervious surfaces, such as
driveways, walkways, patios, and roof overhangs. Maximum height of structures is 30 feet above
average building elevation.
A driveway and/or parking pad in a required front yard may not exceed 20 feet in width (except as
specified in FWRC 19.130.240[1][b]) and may not be closer than five feet to any side property line.
Open Space — All residential subdivisions are required to provide open space in the amount of 15
percent of the gross land area of the subdivision site per FWRC 18.55.060(2), For a conventional
subdivision, all or some of the open space requirements may be satisfied by a fee -in -lieu payment at
the discretion of the 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 with the project. If the
fee -in -lieu option is chosen, a written request to the Parks Director is required. A copy of this request
is required as a component of the short plat application. Open space fees shall be paid prior to
recording the short plat. Refer to FWRC 19.100.070, "Timing of Fee Payments."
8. Environmentally Critical Areas —The city's Critical Areas Map identifies geologically hazardous areas
(GHA's) on the subject property; specifically, an erosion hazard. The application must include the
appropriate critical area studies standards of FWRC 19.145.080 and necessary permitting applications
related to the critical area feature as it is applicable to the short plat application and review.

In summary, any intrusion into the geologic hazard must meet the mitigation sequencing standards of
FWRC 19.145.130. Avoidance of impacts is the first priority, and minimization of impacts is the
second priority. Applicants must demonstrate all reasonable efforts have been made to avoid and
minimize critical area impacts as required by the FWRC. Additional review processes are required for
critical area intrusions. However, city staff cannot determine these additional potential processes as
we do not know the extent of the critical areas or any potential impacts or intrusions proposed into the
critical areas.
a. Geologically Hazardous Areas (GHA) — Portions of the site are mapped as erosion hazard
areas. Erosion hazard areas do not contain standard buffers. A geotechnical report that
identifies any geologically hazardous areas on site and makes recommendations for
construction practices and required mitigation measures must be submitted with the short
plat application per FWRC 19.145.240.
The applicant will be required to pay for any required city consultant review of critical areas reports
and information on a cost recovery basis. The reports will be peer reviewed for compliance with
applicable FWRC requirements by the ek's third party critical area reviewerat the applicant's
expense. This review cast must be pre -funded by the applicant prior to this peer review occurring per
FWRC 19.145.080(3).
9. Tacoma Smelter Plume —The subject property is located in the Tacoma Smelter Plume detect area
containing 20.1 ppm to 40.0 ppm arsenic and lead concentration. Please contact Department of
Ecology Technical Assistance Coordinator Eva Barber at eva.barber@ecy.wa.gov, or 360-407-7094,
regarding the Voluntary Soil Clean -Up Program. Additional information on the smelter plume testing
and cleanup requirements can be found at:
http://www.ecy.wa.gov/programs/tcp/sites brochure/tcoma smelter/2011/ts-hp.htm.
The city will require soil testing and soil cleanup (if applicable) as a component of the short plat
application, review, and site development. The applicant shall provide preliminary soil testing data in
compliance with Washington State Department of Ecology guidelines with the short plat application.
10. Landscaping Around Pond — A minimurn width of three to five feet of landscaping strip for pond
screening is required between the pond and roadway per FWRC 19.115.050.
11, Tree Retention/Replacement — The city's tree standards require each development/redevelopment to
maintain a tree unit density. The minimum tree density requirements for RS zones are 25 tree units
per acre. A tree retention plan prepared by a certified arborist or a certified landscape architect
detailing how the subject property will meet tree unit density requirements shall be submitted with the
short subdivision application. Items required to be included in the plan are itemized in FWRC 19.120.

Transportation Concurrency Analysis (FWRC 19.90)
1. Based on the submitted materials for two new single-family lots, per the Institute of Transportation
Engineers (ITE) Trip Generation — 10°i Edition, land use code 210 (Single Family Detached
Housing), the proposed project is estimated to generate approximately two new weekday PM peak
hour trips and 19 daily trips.
Doc ID:78413
18-104912-00-PC
Mr. Adam Paul
Page 10 of 14
November 27, 2018
2. A concurrency permit is required for this development project. The PW Traffic Division will perform
a 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).
The estimated fee for the concurrency permit application is $1,669.00 (2018 fee for less than 10 pm
trips). This fee is an estimate and based on the materials submitted for the preapplication meeting.
The concurrency applicant fee must be paid in full at the time the concurrency permit application is
submitted with the land use application. 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)
The current traffic impact fee is $3,991 per lot. The total amount of the impact fees will be assessed
and collected from the applicant when the building permit is issued, using the fee schedule then in
effect. The applicant may request at any time prior to building issuance, to defer the payment of the
impact fee to the final building inspection. 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 on each lot. Please
refer to defer payment of impact fee code for process.
Street Frontage Improvements (FWRC 19.135)
The applicant/owner will 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 will be expected to construct improvements on the following streets to
the city's planned roadway cross -sections:
■ Eighteenth Avenue South is a minor collector planned as a Type "R" street consisting of
a 40-foot street with curb and gutter, four -foot planter strips with street trees, six-foot
sidewalks, and street lights in a 66-foot right-of-way. Assuming a symmetrical cross
section, half street improvements and a three foot right-of-way dedication are required.
■ The access easement shall be per Drawing No. 3-2DD and shall serve up to four lots.
This access easement shall be set aside for future shared access with the property to the
south. Lot 1 shall have direct lot access onto 18"' Avenue South and the remaining lots
2 and 3 shall access onto the new private road.
2. 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). Information about a right-of-way modification
requests are available through the Public Works Development Services Division. These modification
requests have a nominal review fee.

Access Management (FWRC 19.135)
1. Block perimeters shall be no longer than 1,320 feet for non -motorized trips, and 2,640 feet for streets
(FWRC 18.55.010 and FWCP Policy TP4.2). However, due to the presence of existing surrounding
developments and topography constraints, no additional street connections appear feasible. Therefore,
staff would support waiving this requirement.
2. 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.
3. The access easement shall be set aside for shared access with the property to the south. The proposed
Lot 1 shall have access onto 18"' Avenue South.
4. Provide street lights at the entrance to the public right-of-way.
5. No street, or combination of streets, shall function as a cul-de-sac longer than 600 feet (FWRC
18.55.010). Therefore, a second access point is required for this proposed development project.
6. Driveways serving a single-family dwelling unit abutting two streets shall be at least 25 feet from the
beginning of the street radius.
LAKEHAVEN WATER & SEWER DISTRICT
Brian Asbury, 253-946-5407, basburya@lakehaven.org
Water
■ A Water Certificate of Availability issued separately by Lakehaven may be required to be submitted with
any land use and/or building permit application(s) (check with land use agency for requirement). A
certificate is valid for one year from date of issuance. If a certificate is needed, allow one to two working
days to issue for typical. The current 2018 cost for a Water Certificate of Availability is $60.00.
A Lakehaven Facilities Installation Agreement will be required to construct the new fire hydrant for the
proposed development. Lakehaven encourages owners/developerslapplicants to apply for Lakehaven
processes separately to Lakehaven, and sufficiently early in the pre-design/planning phase to avoid
delays in overall project development.
• The site has one existing residential water service connection (WtrSvc 4722, %" x'/4" meter). The
existing meter needs to be evaluated under UPC and Lakehaven standards, to determine if it's
adequate for the proposed new residential use.
A water service connection application submitted separately to Lakehaven is required for each new
service connection to the water distribution system, or any modification to an existing water service
connection (e.g., larger meter/service, etc.), in accordance with standards defined in Lakehaven's current
"Fees and Charges Resolution."

any land use and/or building permit application(s) (check with land use agency for requirement). A
certificate is valid for one year from the date of issuance. If a certificate is needed, allow one to two
working days to issue for typical. The current 2018 cost for a Sewer Certificate of Availability is $60.00.
A Lakehaven Developer Extension (DE) Agreement will be required to construct new, abandoned, and/or
modified existing sanitary sewer system facilities necessary for the proposed development; including
extend-to-far-edge(s) in accordance with long-standing Lakehaven policy. Additional detail and/or design
requirements can be obtained from Lakehaven by completing and submitting a separate application to
Lakehaven for either a Developer Pre -Design Meeting or a Developer Extension Agreement. Lakehaven
encourages owners/developers/applicants to apply for Lakehaven processes separately to Lakehaven, and
sufficiently early in the pre-design/planning phase to avoid delays in overall project development.
• The associated DE Agreement must achieve a point of either Substantial Completion or Acceptance, as
determined by Lakehaven, prior to activating any new sewer service connection(s).
■ A separate Lakehaven Sewer Service Connection Permit is required for each new connection to the
sanitary sewer system, or any modification (disconnect, re -align, abandon, etc.) to an existing sewer
service connection, in accordance with standards defined in Lakehaven's current "Fees and Charges
Resolution." Minimum pipe slope for gravity sewer service connections is two percent.
• Based on the proposal submitted, preliminary estimated Lakehaven sewer service connection fees, charges,
and/or deposits (2018 schedule) will be as follows. Actual connection charges will be determined upon
submittal of service connection application(s) to Lakehaven. All Lakehaven fees, charges, and/or deposits
are typically reviewed and adjusted (if necessary) annually, and are subject to change without notice.
