Re: Permit #07-106465-00-AD; CONDITIONAL APPROVAL
South 320`h Place Small Lot Development; 31800 32"d Place SW, Federal Way
Dear Mr. Cook:
The City of Federal Way is pleased to inform you that your proposed small -lot demonstration project on
South 320th Street was conditionally selected to advance to the formal submittal phase for development as
a Small Lot Single Family demonstration project.
The proposed South 320t" Place small lot subdivision has been found to be generally consistent with the
small lot demonstration project selection criteria pursuant to Federal Way City Code (FWCC) 20-155.
The proposal is designed to provide a variety of housing design choices; provide attention to architectural
design and building.material selection; and provide for a pleasant streetscape design with incorporation of
alley -loaded garages and incorporation of front porches along the public street. We believe that with a .
few modifications to the submitted proposal, the South 320th Street Small Lot Demonstration Project will
be a welcome addition to the City's housing stock and serve as a good model for small lot subdivisions.
As you are aware, the purpose of the City's Small Lot Single Family Demonstration Project program is to
provide additional opportunities for homeownership and a greater variety of housing types in Federal
Way. In implementing this demonstration program, the City is looking for innovation in site design as
well as a high quality housing product. With these program goals in mind, the South 320'h Place small lot
single family housing proposal is hereby conditionally approved as a Small Lot Single Family
Demonstration Project, subject to the following conditions:
1) Minimum requirements for usable on -site open space pursuant to FWCC 20-156(c) must be
achieved and the formal application shall provide verification of open space quantity.
2) Pursuant to FWCC 20-156(b), the site plan shall be modified to re -locate the active open space
area PT-2 (tot lot) to a more centralized and easily accessible location (for example a location in
the vicinity of lots 31-35) which is more accessible and visible to the overall community.
3) Pursuant to FWCC 20-179(c), the site plan shall be modified to either eliminate the need for, or
minimize the aesthetic impact of, retaining walls terracing lots 12 through 28.Options to be
Permit N07-106465-00-AD Doc. I.D. 43565
Mr. George Cook
Page 2
January 22, 2008
considered may include, but not be limited to, incorporating house designs that relate to sloped
lots and/or increasing lot size in areas with steeper grade.
4) In order to achieve a sense of community throughout the project (small lot demonstration selection
criteria FWCC 20-155[c][3]), the house designs utilized for the project shall:
a) Incorporate front porches on all homes (e.g. series 1570 elevation A shows a stoop
not a porch).
b) Limit double garages to alley access locations only.
c) Incorporate a minimum level of trim detail including window trim, window grids,
and planter boxes (e.g. series 1470 elevation A is not acceptable for the
demonstration project).
5) Pursuant to FWCC 20457, "Pedestrian and Bicycle Access," the following pedestrian connections
shall be established:
■ The pedestrian connection shown within the Olympic Pipeline easement shall be
connected to South 320`s Street for access to transit.
• Provide for an additional pedestrian connection to the BPA easement (future trail) in
the vicinity of Lot 48.
In addition to the conditions above, staff is recommending that the following additional plat modifications
be considered in order to improve the overall site aesthetics and sense of community for the demonstration
project.
6) Modify the site plan to provide open space in the location of Lots 1 and 2 to contribute to sense of
community, provide a distinct entry treatment, and provide a pedestrian connection to open space
at east end of property.
7) Align the two alleys in vicinity of lots 64-67, 72, and 103-105 to provide direct pedestrian
connectivity.
8) Limit the paving width within the alley in the rear of lots 1-11 to the 16-foot minimum and plant
the remaining four feet with shrubs and groundcover to soften the edge transitioning to the storm
drainage and wetland area tracts.
9) In addition to item 8 above, consider additional site design elements to better incorporate the
storm drainage/wetland facility/buffer area portion of the site as an open space amenity accessible
to the residents. For example, incorporate some limited trail access within the buffer/open space
area and look to innovative design solutions to the design of the drainage facility to lessen the
aesthetic impact of pond walls and associated retaining walls.
With this approval, you may submit formal applications for subdivision and environmental review. Please
contact Senior Planner Janet Shull, AICP, at 253-835-2644 to discuss submittal requirements.

Please also find enclosed with this letter a copy of a table staff prepared in response to your request that
we evaluate and respond to your proposed project timeline. Please note that even under ideal conditions
(faster -than -typical staff review time and few if any resubmittal requirements, for example), Quadrant's
desired construction start date of May 12, 2008, can not be achieved. Again, contact Senior Planner Janet
Shull, AICP, with any questions with regard to the project review procedures and scheduling.
Thank you for your interest in small lot single family housing. If you have any questions, please contact
Senior Planner Janet Shull, AICP, at 253-835-2644, or janet.shull _,citygffederalway.com. We look
forward to working with you.

Notes:
1: "Standard" Target Dates scenario should also be considered a "best case" scenario since it assumes that at
each milestone, the project is ready to move forward, not waiting for resubmittals or additional information at
any critical point in the review process.
2. Applicant did not provide target dates for SEPA decision, so may not have factored that process into their
timeline.
3. Both city target date scenarios would necessitate issuing SEPA decision on the heels of the NOA. This may
not allow adequate time for staff review and document preparation.
4. Applicant is proposing concurrent E.N. review and Preliminary Plat review.
5. Application for right-of-way vacation is not addressed in any of these timelines but if pursued will affect the
overall project timeline.

School Access Analysis
New development creates a need for analysis of student pedestrian safety. The Federal Way
School District would prefer an analysis of walking paths to schools and bus stops from new
subdivisions be prepared by the developer prior to final comments on impacts.
Generally a walking route should be planned to assure that school -age pedestrians from a
neighborhood:
• Cross the fewest number of streets to reduce vehicle -pedestrian exposures.
■ Walk on sidewalks or paths where available.
• Walk the shortest possible distance on streets without sidewalks or wide shoulders.
• Walk on the left side of the road facing traffic on streets where practicable.
• Avoid high speed, high volume roads and roads with high truck volume.
■ Make maximum use of protective techniques (traffic control devices, existing crossing
guards, and school patrols).
■ Use easements with walkways through parks or other available areas where student safety
is maximized. Walkways and paths must be cleared of vegetation for maximum visibility.
The analysis of walking paths to schools and school bus stop locations from a
new subdivision should include the following information:
• School location
• Description of sidewalks, pedestrian paths and shoulders including:
➢ Condition and width of shoulder and sidewalks;
➢ Whether shoulders are paved, gravel or grass, or non-existent;
➢ Whether sidewalks and pathways are immediately adjacent to the traffic lanes or are
separated by a planting strip or other means from moving traffic; and
➢ The location of drainage or irrigation ditches.
• Location of all crosswalks, including type of crossing protection offered.
• Medians, pedestrian refuge islands and other pedestrian safety features.
■ Posted speed limits and warning signs, especially all 20 mph school speed limit zones.
• All stop and yield signs.
• Traffic signals, including presence of marked crosswalks and pedestrian signal indication.
Traffic signal timing and phasing for pedestrian crossing.
• Major sight line obstructions as measured from the height of children.
• Bicycle lanes or paths.
4 Other relevant pedestrian safety factors observed.

Joey,
Strictly speaking, the City does not have a clearing and grading permit. Not only that, the City
restricts mass clearing/grading on subdivisions. We only allow clearing and grading in those
areas necessary to construct the plat infrastructure. Bottom line, we do not permit
clearing/grading without some associated, approved permit (commercial, residential, multi-
family building permit and/or engineering approval, which is how we review/approve plats).
I'm not the expert on this. Janet Shull would probably be better prepared to outline the
procedure, but she's out today and I'm out Monday, and I wanted to get you a response, so
you may just want to verify this with her:
The only way we allow for mass clearing and grading of a plat is the applicant must request it
at the Hearing Examiner meeting (a written request to the City should be submitted at the
time of preliminary plat application, that way we are prepared ro address the issue at the
Hearing). Specific reasons should be included to support the request (i.e. amounts of cut and
fill and areas needed to be cleared and graded to construct just the plat infrastructure, etc.)
that show little or no benefit in not being allowed to mass clear and grade the site. Typically,
the Examiner will take it under advisement and City staff will either support or oppose the
request. However, the ultimate decision lies with the City council, so the applicant should be
prepared to address the issue at both the Land Use/Transportation Committee meeting and
the City council meeting.
You should also be prepared to address the amount of significant trees (FWCC Section 22-
1568) that will be removed, retained, and/or replaced, as a result of the mass clearing and
grading of the site.
Hope this helps answer your question. Let me know if you need anything else, and please
contact Janet to verify the procedure I laid out.

Kevin - I was looking for information on obtaining a Clearing and Grading permit online but not having much
luck. Do you know where I can find the city requirements and/or checklist for Clear and Grade?

SOUTH 320TH PLACE
SMALL LOT DEMONSTRATION PROJECT
APPLICATION
December 3, 2007
Quadrant Homes is applying herein for selection as the Small Lot Demonstration Project
builder by the City of Federal Way. Our application for selection is contained in the
attached South 320`h Place land use plan and bound application packet. Quadrant Homes
brings 38 years of homebuilding experience in the Puget Sound area, with 16 new
communities currently selling. We are also completing the three award -winning master
planned communities of Snoqualmie Ridge, Redmond Ridge and Northwest Landing.
We are confident that our wealth of experience in creating new residential communities
and depth of homebuilding experience will translate into a small lot residential
community that the City can look to with pride and can be offered within the price range
affordable to young families.
Quadrant Homes' Small Lot Demonstration Project application was prepared in
accordance with the City of Federal Way application submittal requirements for a "Small
Lot Detached Development" as outlined in Bulletin #064-October 3, 2007. The South
320'h Place land use plan was prepared in accordance with the 2007 adopted
Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Code. The application has addressed most of the
comments contained in the City's November 5'h Pre -application Comment letter. Some
pre -application comment issues will be addressed in more detail in the South 3201h Place
preliminary plat application.
The South 320th Place site is located adjacent to and north of South 320th Street
approximately'`/4 mile east of Interstate 5. The site is bounded on the west by 32nd
Avenue South and on the east side by a Federal Way fire station. The fully signalized
intersection of Weyerhaeuser Way South and South 320'h Street lies south and adjacent to
the site and provides the main entrance to the site. South 32e Street is an arterial street
and provides quick access to I-5 and west to shopping and restaurants along the north and
south sides of South 320'h Street west of I-5.
The South 3201h Place community will consist of approximately 117 homes on 19.2 acres
containing a mix of homes with garages on the front side of the home (front -loaded
homes) and homes where the garage is located on an alley in back of the house (alley -
loaded homes). Lots sizes vary from 2,712 square feet to 7,360 square feet with an
average lot size of approximately 3,000 square feet. The City of Federal Way Zoning
Code, Chapter 22-667, allows a minimum lot size of 2,400 square feet. All lots in South
320th Place will exceed the minimum lot size allowed by the Federal Way Zoning Code
and will average about 3,000 square feet.
South 320'h Place is served by a combination of public roads meeting the requirements of
the Federal Way Public Works Standards and private roads meeting the requirements of
the Federal Way Small Lot Development Standards. The internal local access roads are
proposed as a Type W local access street with a modification to allow two 12-foot travel
lanes plus an 8-foot parking bay. A second entrance into the community is provided ftom
32°d Avenue South which is �roposed to be constructed to an Arterial Road Standard
"O". The connection to 32' Avenue South will provide the second access required for
emergency vehicles. A planter strip is located on both sides of all public roads that serve
the site. Street trees located within the planter strip will create an attractive appearance to
the neighborhood. In addition to the publicly owned local access roads, the site includes
two private road tracts, three alley tracts and one private street that provide access to
homes not accessed by public roads. These Small Lot Development access roads will be
owned and maintained by the South 320th Place Homeowners Association.
The main entrance to the site will feature alley load homes on both sides of the main
entrance street. Garages will be located on the back side of these homes. The absence of
driveways will provide an attractive entrance with a traditional streetscape. The
streetscape for the main entrance is shown in the attached architectural rendering under
the tab "Plans". The front elevations of the homes shown in the rendering display a
number of architectural features such as window grids, shutters and window boxes.
Some of these architectural features will be standard features on the South 320th Place
homes, while other features (such as the window boxes) can be selected by the home
buyer at the time of purchase and will be added to the cost of the home.
South 320th Place has three open space tracts, two active recreation tracts and one storm
water detention pond tract. Open space Tract T-1 is located adjacent to and east of 32nd
Avenue South and contains a City of Tacoma water transmission line. This tract will
serve as a native growth and landscaped enhanced visual buffer and will be maintained
by the HOA in accordance with the City of Tacoma easement restrictions. Open space
Tract T-2, located along the north property line, is within the Bonneville Power
Administration ("BPA") easement area and will be left in an undeveloped condition and
will be maintained by the South 320th Place HOA in conformance with the terms and
restrictions of the BPA easement. Open space Tract T-3 contains an open space area and
two small wetlands and associated buffers. The wetland in this tract will be enhanced
during development of the South 3201h Place site. Tract PT-1 will be cleared of brush and
improved as shown on the attached landscaping park plans to create an open level play
area for active recreation use. It is unlikely that any significant physical structures will be
placed in this park tract in order to comply with the terms of the existing BPA easement.
Active park Tract PT-2 will be developed to include an array of active children's play
equipment. Tract ST-1 will contain a storm drainage detention facility required for the
South 320th Place site. The exact size and location of the storm drainage facilities will be
determined during the engineering phase of the project. Additional engineering analysis
will be required during development of the preliminary plat application to determine the
more precise details of the storm drainage system.
Water and sewer service will be provided by Lakehaven Sewer District. Power and
natural gas will be provided by PSE.
The South 3201h Place neighborhood has been designed with sensitivity to adjacent
properties A single wood PSE power pole will need to be relocated to enable the site
entrance to align with Weyerhaeuser Way. The north margin of South 320th Street will
be improved with the addition of an HOV lane, curb, gutter, sidewalk and planter area as
part of the plat construction of South 320th Place. A 10-foot wide area of Type III
landscaping comprising the north 10 feet of ithe South 320th Street Right of Way will be
constructed during development of the site. The 100-foot wide BPA easement area along
the north side of the site will provide a natural buffer to properties to the north. Tract T-3
will provide an approximately 130-foot wide buffer to the east. Tract T-3 will be
landscaped with the exception of the ST-1 storm water pond. The attached landscaping
plan shows the type of landscaping materials proposed for Tract T-3. Tract T-1 will
provide a 60-foot wide landscaped enhanced native grown vegetated buffer to the west.
Site construction is expected to be typical for a single family project.. The site slopes
gently to the north from South 320th. A small wetland borders the easterly portion of the
site and provides a buffer between the site and the adjoining fire station. The site is
currently covered with a mix of second growth evergreen and alder. Soils are typical for
a site in the Federal Way area.
The South 3201h Place land use plan was configured to conform to existing utility
corridors. A Bonneville Power Administration power line corridor borders the site to the
north. A single alignment of towers containing one circuit of 320 KV power lines is
contained in the corridor. A 115 KV Puget Sound Energy line located on wood poles
borders the site to the south and provides power to an existing power substation lying
south of 320th Street and west of Weyerhaeuser Way. The PSE power poles also contain
a 12.5 KV circuit of local distribution power lines as well as telephone and cable TV
franchise utility lines. An Olympic Pipe Line Corporation main traverses the site from
north to south. The City of Tacoma operates a water transmission line within an
easement that parallels the south margin of the BPA easement including Tract T-1.
Quadrant Homes seeks to build an attractive and diverse community with values similar
to those of the City of Federal Way. It is our intent to build communities that are
compatible with neighboring properties and homes that are in scale with the lots on which
they are built. South 320th Place will have a mix of housing types that provides for
flexibility of family sizes and market conditions. All homes will be single-family, two-
story, detached dwellings.
The demonstration project will highlight the Cottage Collection (22 to 26 feet wide) with
homes ranging from approximately 1,000 to 1,800 square feet. We intend to offer up to
ten (10) different front -loaded garage homes with one -car garages and four (4) different
alley -loaded homes with one -car or two -car garage options. Other options in the floor
plans, such as guest rooms, additional baths or utility rooms, are intended to meet diverse
family needs and lifestyles.
Each lifestyle floor plan will have three (3) elevations. That is, for each plan the buyer
will have a choice of three front fagades which are designed to be pedestrian oriented and
provide visual interest. These elevations will vary in roof form, porch design and/or
facade detailing. We have made every effort to create diversity in plans and elevations.
The success of our communities is based upon this program of offering the buyer choices
that result in varied roof and porch forms, different textures in the siding and exterior
elements, and a mixed color palette on siding, trim, and accents (doors and shutters). The
primary ground floor entries will be oriented toward the streets. Furthermore, facades
will vary from one building to the next to further diversify the streetscape. We also
ensure variety in elevations and scale by not allowing the same home elevations to be
built on adjoining lots.
In addition to the Cottage Collection, the site plan proposes ten (10) home sites that will
allow for a limited number of larger homes. A limited offering of our Olympic (30-foot
wide) homes will provide additional diversity in the neighborhood. These homes will be
available with 2-car garage standard in approximately 1,500 to 3,000 square feet. Many
of the same options are available in these floor plans as well.
The South 320'h Place Homeowners Association will be an essential and important part of
the Quadrant homeowner community. Quadrant Homes values the legacy we leave in a
community. For that reason, we ensure that each community we develop has a
capitalized, educated, functioning Homeowners Association at the time of transition to
homeowner control. The purpose of a Homeowners Association is to maintain the
common areas, ensuring a consistent look throughout the community, and enhance the
sense of community. It is intended to prevent neighbors from making changes to their
homes and using their property in ways that negatively impact property values.
To create that legacy, we use the following tools and techniques to help our HOAs run
well:
• Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions ("CC&Rs") include important use
restrictions (such as restrictions on RV and boat parking), and empower the Board
of Directors to enforce them, including the power to raise, spend and save money
for the benefit of the community over the long term.
Rules and Covenant Enforcement Policy is in place before we open for sale. It
restates the use restrictions in a format people will read. Our property managers
make sure the Rules are enforced during developer control, establishing solid
traditions of compliance.
■ The Property Improvement Handbook is a full -color, illustrated guide to what
changes to the exterior of the property are and are not acceptable. Quadrant
Homes uses an independent architect to manage the property improvement
committee process (others may use the term "Architectural Control Committee"
or "ACC") during development; to educate a Property Improvement Committee
of homeowners before transition; and to provide ongoing services after transition
if the Board wishes.
• Property Managers and other key vendors, such as landscape maintenance
contractors, are under contract to the HOA before the first home closes. Our goal
is for these vendors to provide outstanding service and continue to work for the
HOA before, during and after transition.
• A Build -out Budget is established that includes vendor contracts, so income from
assessments ("dues") is sufficient to cover necessary services without the need to
steeply increase assessments after transition. In addition, we have a professional
reserve study performed before transition, and establish a reserve account. A
reserve study recommends the level of savings necessary to repair or replace all
common area amenities over a 20-year time horizon, and helps ensure financial
stability for the HOA.
• Websites are established for each HOA, where the CC&Rs, Rules and Covenant
Enforcement Policy, Property Improvement Applications, Handbook, and all
other important information are available to homeowners online. Other
homeowner education includes welcome packets, homeowner skills workshops
before transition, and board training afterwards.
The Quadrant Homes Small Lot Demonstration Project application is in compliance with
Federal Way City Code Section 20-155 and the Small Lot Detached Dwelling Unit Use.
See zoning code compliance chart in "Code" tab.
Quadrant Homes, if selected as the Small Lot Demonstration Project builder, would like
to entitle South 320'b Place in early 2008 and begin construction of the plat improvements
in the spring of 2008. Home construction and sales would then commence in early 2009.
The schedule is challenging and will require that the City proceed with parallel review of
the engineering construction plans before final approval of the preliminary plat. A more
detailed development schedule is included in the "Schedule" tab.
Quadrant Homes is a natural choice for the first Small Lot Demonstration Project in
Federal Way. We have over 35 years of land use development history with the City of
Federal Way beginning with our parent company's corporate headquarters and continuing
through the 15-year development of West Campus. Quadrant Homes has over 38 years
of homebuilding experience in the five county Puget Sound area. Quadrant Homes prides
itself on delivering compelling value to our homebuyers, many of whom are young
families and first time homebuyers. We have an extensive array of small lot home plans
that we have built and marketed in the Puget Sound area. These house plans have proven
their value to our buyers. The wide array of house plans that Quadrant can offer and the
range of options available to the buyer will create an attractive and varied streetscape
within South 320'' Place. The streetscape views shown in the "Plan" tab illustrate how
these different house plans will appear from the street.
Quadrant Homes understands the goals and objectives of the City of Federal Way in
creating the Small Lot Development provision of the zoning code. Quadrant Homes is
ready to demonstrate to the City of Federal Way that small lot housing with compelling
value can be created in an attractive and sustainable community and still be accessible to
young families and first time homebuyers. We urge the City to select Quadrant Homes to
complete the first Small Lot Demonstration Project in the City of Federal Way.

The South 320th Place Site plan is a graphic layout of the lots, road, open
space tracts and location of the storm drainage detention pond. The local
access roads are intended to be public. Driveways are shown in light blue
shading. The proposed road sections are shown in the upper left hand area of
the drawing. A preliminary set of more detailed engineering drawings of the
project site is attached to the application booklet.
II) Alley Load Streetscape Drawing
This drawing is a 3-dimensional representation of the main entrance to South
3201h Place. It is a view of what might be seen from the second story window
of lot 100 looking North East toward lots 7 through 11. The architectural
rendering of the homes on lots 7 through 11 are created by using actual
architectural plans for these Quadrant homes. All of the homes shown in this
architectural rendering will be available for purchase by South 320th Place
home buyers. The front elevation of the homes, display a number of
architectural features such as window grids, shutters and window boxes.
Some of these architectural features will be standard on the South 320th
homes, while other features (such as the window boxes) can be selected by the
home buyer at the time of purchase and will be added to the cost of the home.
III) Front Load Streetscape Drawing
This drawing is a 3-dimensional representation of the front load homes on lots
41 through 48 along the cul-de-sac local access street. It is a view of what
might be seen from the second story window of the home on lot 20 looking
westerly. The architectural rendering of the homes on lots 41 through 48 are
created by using actual architectural plans for these Quadrant homes. All of
the homes shown in this architectural rendering will be available for purchase
by South 320th Place home buyers. The front elevation of the homes, display
a number of architectural features such as window grids, shutters and window
boxes. Some of these architectural features will be standard on the South
320th homes, while other features (such as the window boxes) can be selected

RIGHT-OF-WAY IMPROVEMENT MODIFICATION REQUEST
CITY OF FEDERAL WAY
December 12, 2007
I) Description of Modification Request
This modification request is to allow an alternate lane and parking configuration
for City of Federal Way Development Standard Road Section "W". The
requested modification to Road Standard "W" is proposed for use as the primary
local access street be use in the Small Lot Demonstration Project of South 3201h
Place currently before the City for review and selection as the first Small Lot
Demonstration project in the City of Federal Way. The request for modification
is being made pursuant to FWCC 22-1477.
II Requested Code Modification
This is a request to modify Local Access Road Section "W" which is contained in
the City of Federal Way Development Standards. The Development Standards
are an adopted part of the City Zoning Code, Chapter 22, Article XVI,
"Improvements".
II) Reason for requesting Modification
FWCC 22-1477 (1) "The improvement as required would not be harmonious with
existing street improvements, would not function property or safely and would not
be advantageous to the neighborhood or City as a whole "
The proposed modification is to allow two 10 foot travel lanes and one 8 foot
parking lane in lieu of one 12 foot travel land and two 8 foot parking lanes. The
proposed modification to road section "W" would create a modified road section
identical to the paved curb to curb road section of the City of Federal Way
Collector Road Section "S" but with only one 8 foot parking lane. Attachment A
shows the proposed modification to Road Section "W". Attachment `B" shows
Road Section "W" without modification and Attachment "C" shows Collector
Road Section "S". We believe that this road section would function better as a
two way local access road while providing more than the required parking spaces
for the South 320" Place site plan. Since theyrinciple Iocal access road provides
through traffic from South 320t' Street to 32' Ave South a two lane configuration
similar to Collector Road Section S would function more safely than a single 12
foot lane. Since approximately 90 % of the local access streets are single loaded,
only one side of the local access roads will have driveways, a single lane of
parking will provide more than the required paring spaces.
The South 320t' Place pre -application comment letter of November 5, 2007 RECEIVED
requires a Local Access Type "W" road section for the public roads of South
