FROM:
SUBJECT: STAFF REPORT ON THE REORGANIZATION AND RE-CODIFICATION OF THE FEDERAL WAY
CITY CODE AND THE CORRECTION OF NONSUBSTANTIATIVE ERRORS.
Staff has researched the feasibility and desirability of a re-codification and republication
of the Federal Way City Code (Code or FWCC) and proposes the re-codification of the Code
into a renamed Federal Way Revised Code (FWRC). Similar to the state RCW's, the new
codification will be based on a decimal system of title, chapter, subchapter and section, with
references being to title, chapter, and section. The current system is based on a chapter,
article, division, and section nomenclature with references being only to chapter and section.
The intent of the reorganization of the Code is to make it more user friendly for both the city staff
and the public. The cost of this process will be approximately $7500 arid will take an estimated
2 - 4 months.
During the process of reviewing the Federal Way City Code (FWCC) for the purpose of
reorganizing and re-codifying, Staff has also located a number of typographical errors,
scrivener's errors, incorrect references, and unclear language in various sections that should be
corrected prior to the final re-codification. A proposed ordinance sets forth each section
needing correction with the proposed corrections.
The reorganization will consolidate provisions dealing with boards, commissions, and
government personnel and departments into Title 2. The tax and finance chapters will be
consolidated. Streets, parks, and public places will be consolidated. Crimes will be
consolidated into a public safety and welfare title. Nuisances will be consolidated into a public
nuisances chapter. Animal regulations will be consolidated into an animal title. Utility regulation
will be consolidated into one title. Alarms and fireworks will be consolidated with the business
title. Building regulations and the fire code will be consolidated. Shoreline management will be
divided from SEPA related regulations. Water quality regulations will be consolidated with
surface water management. The zoning code will be reorganized and renamed the zoning and
development code title.
Some sections will be removed from what is currently the zoning chapter. These include
administrative regulation dealing with city employees, which will be moved to the government
title. Certain nuisance type prohibitions will be moved to the public nuisances title. Water
quality regulations will move to surface water management. Although the planning commission
generally has jurisdiction over matters in the zoning chapter, the commission's jurisdiction is
actually defined by process VI. Although process VI addresses amendments to the text of the
zoning chapter, it also generally covers development regulations throughout the Code, thus the
Planning commission's authority will not be affected by the reorganization. Additionally FWCC
22-59 and FWCC 22-523 provide the planning commission jurisdiction over any council
authorized items.
During this process internal citations will be corrected and made more regular.
Subsections and subparagraph will be re-enumerated to one consistent style, that of the
RCW's, using the following sequence and style: (1 )(a)(i)(A)(I). Numbering will be removed from
definition lists and the words defined shall be indented, italicized, and set off with quotation
marks. Cross references will be updated and expanded.
Staff is recommending proceeding with a Council resolution to direct the preparation of a
draft reorganization of the Code as well as with an ordinance to correct the nonsubstantiative
errors that have been found. Each proposal will be presented to the planning commission and
each council committee. Attached are the proposed ordinance with two appendixes, a
proposed resolution, a comparison outline of the old and new Codes, and a full outline of the
new Title 2 for illustrative purposes.

specific tree plan, drawn to scale, shall be prepared. The tree plan shall show the
precise location of all significant trees on the site, in relation to the proposed
buildings, streets, parking areas, required landscaped areas, surface water
facilities, and utilities. The director of community development shall review the
plan in relation to the proposed development to ensure tree removal is the
minimum amount necessary to comply with the proposed development and meet
the purposes of this chapter.
(~~) When required significant trees cannot be retained (see subsection (f)
of this section), significant trees that are removed shall be replaced with:
&- lll. Transplanted or retained on-site trees four-inch caliper or larger,
which meet the definition of significant tree in all manner except size, and

Interlocal Agreement - City of Federal Way and Lakehaven Utility District for
Office Space Occupancy
BACKGROUND:
Since the acquisition and development of City Hall in the fonner Paragon Building, the City has
attempted to assemble all of the agencies associated with the Permit Process in one facility, with the
intention of becoming a "One-Stop" Permit Center.
In March 2004, the City Council approved a similar Interlocal Agreement between the City and South
King Fire and Rescue (SKF) (formally Federal Way Fire Department). Since occupancy of SKF at City
Hall, the community, SKF staff and City staff have benefited from the improved communication and
efficiency this arrangement has made to the permit process.
This Interlocal Agreement between the City of Federal Way and Lakehaven Utility District (attached)
reflects the City's commitment to improving communication between the agencies as well as service to
our customer base and the community by co-locating the permitting function of both agencies at City
Hall. .

other documents to Seller, without warranty (the "Third-Party Work Product"). If such lawsuit
is filed, the deadlines for Buyer's performance under this Agreement as set forth in the Schedule
for the development of the Project or the Closing of the Sale shall be extended until such time as
the lawsuit is fully resolved and all appeal periods have expired. This Section shall apply
notwithstanding the representations and warranties ofthe Parties in Article 3 ofthis Agreement.

extended coverage owner's policy of title insurance to be issued by the Title Company in the full

Design Guidel ines
Symphony Mixed-Use Project. Federal Way, Washington, November 28, 2007
Relationship to Existing Federal Way Design Guidelines.
These guidelines are intended to supplement and/or complement the City's existing design
guidelines, found at FWCC 22-1634 et seq. Where judgment or discretion is required to
implement the existing FWCC design guidelines. these guidelines are intended to provide
additional, more specific guidance.
A: Site Planning Guidelines
A 1: Site Characteristics: Site planning should respond to specific site conditions and
opportunities, such as:
· Utilize naturally sloping topography
by stepping buildings in response to
elevation changes and locating
parking access at the lower portions
of the site.
· Capture solar access and views by
arranging buildings and open space
with respect to sun orientations and
vistas.
. Make strong and obvious
connections to the adjacent transit
center. Arrange commercial uses and
functions to enhance corners and
activate streets, where feasible.

A2: Enhance Street Grid: Improve the street grid and reduce large city blocks by
introducing new drive lanes and pedestrian crossings.
. Enhance the street grid by introducing a new circulation lane that prioritizes
pedestrian comfort and safety by using textured paving, landscaping and a
"Woonerf" style street (Dutch word for a curb-less plaza-I ike street that blends
people with cars).
. Create a porous and welcoming pedestrian circulation system by encouraging
public access into the site from at least three sides and from both mid-block and
corner locations.
A3: Parking and Vehicle Access: Minimize the impact and amount of on-grade automobile
parking and driveways on the pedestrian environment, ac!Jacent properties and
pedestrian safety.
. Reduce the visibility of parking by using primarily underground parking garages.
· Locate parking entrances at lowest portions of the site with the fewest curb cuts
possible.
· Provide a limited number of outdoor parking spaces for short term parking to
increase access to the park and retail services.
. Minimize exposure of loading bays and integrate such areas into the overall site
and building design.
A4: Open Space: Public open spaces should be planned, designed and constructed to
provide for both passive and active activities for visitors, shoppers and residents and
become an attractive, urban open space destination in the City Center. In addition to the
existing guidelines found at FWCC 22-7640, the following guidelines shall apply:
.
Provide attractive, safe
and visible pedestrian
pathways from the sur-
rounding street grid in
order to encourage ready
and unimpeded visual
and physical public
access to Symphony Park
Utilize attractive, legible
and inviting signage and
other way-finding
methods to encourage
public access to
Symphony Park.

B: Height Bulk and Scale
B1: Height, Bulk and Scale: A multi-building site development shall endeavor to create
variety in the arrangement and design of the buildings so as not to create a repetitive
composition.
. Stagger heights on each building so as to create a hierarchy of forms on the
skyline. responding to the natural topography.
. Vary long and short fa~ade orientations among buildings.
. Use a variety of colors and materials to enhance the massing and/or
architectural features that contribute to breaking down the perception of
overall height. bulk and scale.
. Use architectural modulations and articulations as features that contribute to
breaking down the perception of overall height. bulk and scale.
. Vary the penthouse tops and architectural expressions between buildings.
. Make unique base-level configurations at each building in response to
different ground-level uses by using different materials. signage and entrances
to create a sense of an urban village.

c: Architecture Guidelines
C1: Architectural Concept & Consistency: Building design elements, details and massing
should create a well proportioned and unified building form and exhibit an overall
building concept.
. Follow a tripartite architectural delineation and expression of base, middle and
top.
. The design "parti" for each tower is conceived as an eroded mass, stepping back
as it reaches upward, then culminating in increased areas of glass.
. The tallest tower wi II feature a unique iconic rooftop feature element to serve as
a focal point and an illuminated night beacon for the city.
. Building facades shall be broken up and composed with modulation including
bays, floating frames, sun- protecting eyebrow elements, continuous curtain wall
elements and vertical glass "zippers".
. The design concept is intended to be modern, crisp and fresh. Historicism and
lor appl ied decoration are not intended for the palette of the project.
. Elements of continuity that will knit the various building of the project together
include: unit window patterns, unit balconies, eyebrow treatments, residential
entry canopies, certain color accents, landscape elements and complimentary
exterior material applications and details.
. Elements of distinction between buildings will include varying heights, roof top
treatments, color changes, use of projecting bays, varying retail canopies,
awnings and entrances, signage, retail window proportions. The exterior
expression of interior program differences will also enhance distinction and
variety, such as community college, vs. residential units, VS. restaurant, VS. small
retailer, vs. larger retailer, vs. work-live units, etc.

C2: Human Scale: Incorporate architectural features, elements and details to achieve a good
human scale and promote activity.
. Above-grade setbacks forming terraces at podium level to promote eyes on the
street and park and to break up and reduce ground-level wind from towers.
. Canopies and awnings to provide weather
protection at street level entrances and retail
sidewalks.
. Pedestrian-oriented landscaping at street sidewalks
on 20th, 21st and 316th Street.
. Artistic treatment or landscaping concealment of
ventilation grilles where close proximity to
sidewalk occurs.
. Use of smaller-scale, finer-grain materials, reveals
and patterns at sidewalk levels.
. Use of different window systems and pattern at
retail, vs. residential.
. Widen sidewalks and introduce recessed bays to
encourage sidewalk displays, cafe tables, benches
and landscaping.
C3: Entrances: Principal entries shall be clearly identifiable, attractive and visible from the
street and from primary pedestrian pathways. Canopy protection from the weather is
encouraged.
. Use special entry treatments, signage, window patterns and canopies to create a
distinctive residential address for the towers, different than those used for retail
areas.
. Commercial/retai I entrances shall also receive special treatment of the canopy
and storefront facades.
. Define public parking garage entrances with obvious signage and locations
while still making this function subordinate and less prominent to the pedestrian
entrances and retai I features. Recess garage entrance portions from the prime
fac;ade and locate where topography can minimize impacts.
-Page 5 of 10-
C4: Exterior Materials: Building exteriors should be constructed of durable and high quality
materials that are attractive even when viewed up close. Materials that have texture,
pattern, or lend themselves to a high quality of detailing are encouraged.
. Use a variety of high quality exterior materials and systems to emphasize certain
massing elements, define the general design "parti" and distinguish different
buildings.
. Use materials at ground level that are of a finer grain and promote human
scale with more patterning, reveals and texture.
. Primary exterior building materials may include:
o Continuous high-rise rated glass window wall systems
with integrated slab edge and column spandrel
coverings.
o Several varieties, textures and colors of pre-cast concrete
architectural panels, with pre-stained colors or painted
surfaces.
Steel and glass awnings,
Fabric Awnings.
Several colors and textures
of concrete paving or
masonry terrace pavers.
o Stained and or patterned concrete drive lane pavement.
o Brick masonry
o Profile metal panels and
composite metal panels
o High density composite siding
panels, such as Prodema,
Richlite or Hardi Panel. Either
painted or with integral colors

C5: Commercial Signage: Signs should add interest to the street front environment and
should be appropriate for the scale and character desired in the area.
. Use architecturally integrated wall signage for major tenants.
. Tastefully scaled canopy-mounted and wall signage (not back lit)
. Blade signage along the sidewalk pedestrian zones.
. Develop a campus wide signage program for retail tenants, way finding and
barrier free signage.
0: Pedestrian Realm Guidelines
D1: Street Life: Orient active uses with transparent
window areas toward the acjjacent streets and
Symphony Lane. Minimize blank wall areas.
Activate sidewalks with human activity and/or
interest.
. The interior street of the development
focuses activity where street level
facades have retail, commercial uses,
and the prime resident entry lobbies.
Window and transparency at the
sidewalk is a desired.
. The outer streets of the development
will also have retail commercial uses and activity, but where grade changes
create exposed parking garages or raised terrace conditions, display windows,
landscaping & artistic treatment shall be used to buffer and enhance the
pedestrian experience. Blank walls shall be minimized, landscaped and/or
animated.
. Use wide sidewalks, building indentations and public plazas to create outdoor
cafe and retail display spaces with street furniture, cafe furniture and
landscaping amenity areas.
. Street frontages will be treated in an urban manner to establish a delineated
street wall edge with building storefronts rather than a suburban style set back,
Once established, the street wall may be eroded to allow gathering spaces,
entrances, cafe space, or landscaping opportunities,
-Page 7 of 10-
02: landscaping: Use landscaping for buffers, screens and as a public amenity.
. Create an urban landscape through judicious placement of both greenscape and
hardscape features in establ ish ing Symphony Park as the focus of the Symphony
neighborhood and a civic gathering place for Federal Way City Center.
. Place landscaping at the surface parking area
on Symphony Lane, along the perimeter
streetscapes as buffers and along interior
pedestrian pathways.
. Upper level common and private decks and
terraces shall include landscape tree
containers and potted plants.
. Visually buffer the south property line along
the park with landscaping. Plan for future
expansion and/or connection to adjacent
property if mutually desired by both property
owners.

03: lighting: Appropriate levels of lighting should be provided in order to promote visual
interest, increase vitality and a sense of security for people in commercial districts
during evening hours. Lighting may be provided by incorporation into the building
far;ade, the underside of overhead weather protection, on and around street furniture, in
merchandising display windows, in landscaped areas, and/or on signage.
. Illuminate the sidewalks and public areas of the project.
. Illuminate distinctive features of the building, including entries, signage,
canopies, and areas of architectural detail and interest.
. Allow for lighting in display windows to spill onto the sidewalk.
04: Safety & Security: Design the prQject to
respond to CPTED (Crime prevention through
environmental design a::-{\ guidelines for
defensible and safe public spaces). Appropriate
levels of lighting and pedestrian activity should
be provided in order to promote visual interest
and a sense of security for people in
commercial districts during evening hours and
parking structures at all hours.
. Follow the CPTED guidelines and work
closely with the Federal Way Police
Department to design the project to
prevent crime and unsafe situations.
-Page 8 of 10-
. Activate open spaces with adjacent retail uses that naturally provide visual
surveillance and safety - "eyes on the street".
· Residential bui Idings should arrange semi private outdoor common-use terraces
and private balconies to overlook public open spaces below which naturally
provide visual surveillance and safety.
· Provide access controlled lobbies.
· Structured parking areas should be well lit and have visual access to elevator
lobbies and other public areas.
D5: Screening of Dumpsters, Utilities, and Service Areas: The site and building design
should locate service elements like trash dumpsters, loading docks, mechanical
equipment, and utility cabinets away from the street front where possible. When
elements such as dumpsters, utility meters, mechanical units and service areas cannot
be located away from the street front, they should be situated and screened from view
and should not be located in the pedestrian right-of-way.
· Minimize the exposure and visual impact of these
elements by creating interior shipping & receiving areas
and enclosed trash and recycling storage/pick up areas.
· Utility cabinets, connections and meters should be
placed inside buildings, undergrounded, screened or
camouflaged by landscaping.
E: Park Design Guidelines
E1: Park Design: Design a park that creates open space, hard surfaces and green space and
provides a civic and cultural asset for both the Symphony neighborhood and the greater
community.
. Program: Create an urban park intended for general open space uses including
Frisbee throwing, dog walking, watching and meeting neighbors, strolling, kids
playing on ajungle gym, benches for sitting, cafe sitting areas, observation of a
water feature and small concerts and other civic activities.
-Page 9 of 10 -
. Provide a cultural and civic venue, such as an outdoor performance stage that
allows opportunities for public
assembly, concerts and other stage
performances.
. In addition to hardscape areas,
landscaping areas may include
planting beds, raised and mounded
. earth features, natural rock
formations, trellised arbors, feature
landscape areas including drought-
tolerant planting, open lawn area for
passive recreation and a variety of
drought-tolerant tree species
and sizes throughout.
. The park should also enhance and
soften the adjacent buildings,
entrances and retail uses. In turn,
those users will help keep the park active and safe with "eyes on the park" from
outdoor cafe tables, the retail storefronts, the daycare and from terraces and
apartments above.
F: Sustainability
F1: Sustainability: New development shall attempt to reduce carbon emissions, global
warming and encourage more walk-able lifestyles.
Build an urban infill project, close tojobs, schools, retail
and service in a transit oriented mixed-use development
Create a livable community that discourages automobile
dependence, encourages walking, community
interaction and healthier living by locating in close
proximity to services,jobs and daily needs.
Pursue certification through the USGBC's "LEED NO"
program (Leadership in Energy and Environmental
Design - Neighborhood Development Program).

About Federal Way City Center
Federal Way City Center is in the midst of a transformation from a traditional suburban form, to
a vibrant urban center. Bound by So. 312th Street on the north, Interstate 5 on the east, So. 324th
Street on the south, and the Pacific Highway corridor on the west -- and comprising 414 acres-
the area features 2.7 million square feet of existing retail space (much of it large format), more
than 650 hotel rooms, 225,000 square feet of office and 890 multifamily residential units. The
community hosts world-class cultural institutions, engaging open spaces, and close proximity to
regional educational and health care institutions. Materials describing conditions within City
Center can be found in a supplemental marketing piece to this RFQ, Exhibit 7.
While City Center has seen continuing investment in retail and commercial projects, it has not
seen the same influx of new urban mixed-use developments containing a denser mix of
commercial uses and urban housing as other urbanizing suburban communities in the
Northwest. Urban housing and mixed-use development are a core component of every successful
downtown as it adds vitality to the streets, diversity to the skyline, and buying power to the
economy. Even more important, however, is that urban housing and associated commercial uses
satisfy a well-documented demand for lifestyle-
oriented living that is currently lacking in the
Federal Way market. For these reasons, the Project
represents a unique opportunity to capture part of
the Seattle region's burgeoning market for urban
housing and associated commercial uses in a
mixed-use, lifestyle-oriented format.
A recent market analysis for the greater Federal
Way City Center trade area suggested the
following:
. Population and household growth
consistent with the metro area as a whole
at approximately 1.3 percent annually;
. Median household estimates in a five-mile
radius of City Center were also found to be
higher than the same area around its two
major retail competitors - Tacoma Mall and Southcenter Mall;
· Based on supply and demand conditions across aU major land uses, market conditions
support new construction, greater diversification of development types and the potential
for a vital urban center.
Detailed market findings are available in Exhibit 7.
City Center (shawing the Site highlighted in red)
The City has a number of tools available to assist landowners, developers and investors
undertaking this and other development and redevelopment projects in the City Center. These
are described later in this Request.

Infrastructure
Mix of uses which demonstrate the highest and best use of
the Site; incorporating mid- and high-rise structures with
low-rise components, including residential (both rental and
ownership), office, retail, service, entertainment and
institutional uses, supported by public open spaces.
Intended Land Use
Project Vision and Principles
The City is seeking to select a developer who
shares the enthusiasm and vision for a vibrant
downtown Federal Way as a place to live,
work, shop, and play. The Project envisions a
dense mix of uses, featuring urban housing,
commercial uses and open spaces. A central
approach for the renaissance of City Center
consists of encouraging strategic investment
in a compact environment that contains an
appropriate mix of land uses, gives greater
emphasis to multiple forms of access, and
creates a unique sense of place.
Vision
A well-crafted vision should be realistic and
recognize economic, optical and environmental
constraints. Successful visions must have its roots
in the communitlj and must accurately reflect the
views and aspirations of those who live and work
there. It should be regularly evaluated and if
necessanJmodified. Implementation of t1J.e vision
requires consistent and disciplined public poliCl}.
-- Urban Land Institute (ULl)
The Federal Way City Center will be highly urbanized, mixed-use urban center with a
concentration of housing units, commercial uses, jobs and public spaces supporting public
transportation, pedestrian activity and a sense of place. Predominant land uses will be
page lJ
City Center Mixed-Use Development
RFQ: Federal Way City Center Mixed-Use Development
residential, commercial and public. The Project should serve as a catalyst within this urban
center, designed to bring an active and vital mix of uses to the area in a pedestrian-friendly,
transit.,.supportive format. Different land uses will be found side by side or within the same
structures. The mix of uses will be located in a development with minimal setbacks, reduced
parking requirements, and taller structures, all in an effort to achieve higher densities necessary
to support "the place." It will serve as a catalyst for public and private investment and economic
activity, effectively building off the strengths of the surrounding area and connecting to adjacent
neighborhood.
Desired Components of the Vision
The desired components of this catalyst Project include the following:
.
Highest and best use of the site
Mid- and high-rise buildings as well as low-rise components, achieving the sense of an
"organic" village of structures, not a single "project."
Mix of Uses - residential (both lease! own), office, retail, service, entertainment, or
institutional, etc.
Public open space in a "town square" format that is seamlessly integrated with surrounding
development for activation, programming, passive vigilance, etc., and including art work
and! or artistic expression.
Superior urban design, site planning and building design
Adherence to the Development Principles enunciated below.
.
.
.
.
.
In addition, while not a required component, there is a strong community desire to see the
following included in a redevelopment project on the Site, if feasible:
. Facilities to house either or both the Federal Way campus of the Highline Community
College and the administrative offices of the Federal Way Public Schools. Both institutions
have expressed interest in potentially locating at the Site, as well as participating in a future
development. Please see Exhibit 3 for further details of each institution's needs and general
terms.
Development Goals and Principles
As a development catalyst in a significant location in the Federal Way City Center, the Project
should embody the best of Smart Growth prh'lciples and should be an urban design showcase.
The final development plan to be prepared by the selected developer should incorporate these
goals and principles as a fundamental part of the plan:
Goals:
.
Address underserved market niche
Support stabilization and diversification
Provide direction for targeting and leveraging public investment
Advance a market.,.tested stakeholder vision over the near- and long-term (as expressed
herein)
Advance a physically and economically sustainable plan
.
.
.
.
City Center Mixed-Use Development
page 7
RFQ: Federal Way City Center Mixed-Use Development
Principles:
· Smart Growth Principles, as defined by the American Planning Association (APA), 1998,
including:
· Efficient use of land resources;
· Full use of urban services;
· Mix of uses;
· Transportation options; and
· Detailed, human-scale design.
. "Green" or Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) development principles
to the extent feasible (LEED rating not required)
· Providing maximum opportunities for viable mixed-use commercial development.
· Contributing to the overall character of Federal Way.
· Providing a variety of urban housing opportunities.
· Providing interesting and active fal;ades at the street level.
· Respecting and interacting with surrounding property values and land uses.
Incentives
The City recognizes the physical and financial challenges that can accompany infill
redevelopment, especially when compared with development of vacant" greenfield" sites.
Consequently, the City intends to consider measures that may help to level the investment and
regulatory playing fields. The City further recognizes that no single measure will address this
objective, but rather that a series of measures, designed to capitalize on market opportunities and
overcome barriers, may be appropriate.
The City has identified the following potential partnership incentives and is willing to discuss
their possible application to an appropriate redevelopment project:
.
Provision of a lead staff contact for the Project to facilitate and expedite permit approvals
among various City departments, consistent with the development goals identified in the
RFQ;
10-year limited property tax exemption enacted for residential development and certain
mixed-use development components;
City Center environmental impact statement completed 2006 and resulting Planned Action
Ordinance that substantially lessens the SEP A environmental review burden for individual
developers within the City Center Planned Action Area (that includes the Site).
City Center zoning that allows for higher-density uses, with up to 200 feet in height allowed;
Building Code provisions that allow 5-story wood-frame over concrete construction;
Citizen outreach and assistance with public meetings;
Redevelopment partnership funds. City funds may be made available to help finance public
components, such as public open space, infrastructure, and public parking.
The City will be considering the potential availability of State funds for public development
components through the Local Infrastructure Financing Tool (LIFT) which may be approved
by the Community Economic Revitalization Board (CERB).
Other incentives as negotiated.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
Incentives potentially available from the City are not intended to replace other project financing
from private or public sources. Rather, they are intended to be flexible resources that can
City Center Mixed-Use Development
page 8
RFQ: Federal Way City Center Mixed~Use Development
potentially bridge funding gaps which may be created by the sometimes more difficult nature of
such preprogrammed, infill developments.
Once City-identified criteria are satisfactorily addressed, staff will work with the developer or
development team to further analyze specific details about the project's financial pro forma and
other factors, as warranted. Any potential financial assistance to the project will be determined
based upon the nature and extent of the "gap" between the total project costs, the amount of
public components, and the amount of private investment available to cover those costs,
assuming a market-average rate of return on the private investment. Based upon this
information, City staff will then recommend the extent of the City's potential financial
participation in the project. Moreover, the level of any potential City financial participation will
be dependent, in part, on the fiscal impact of the project to the community and expected private
investment leverage resulting from its participation. The ultimate goal will be to make the
project economically self-supporting as quickly as possible.
Permitting Process
Please feel free to contact Federal Way's Community
Development Services Department via phone, in
person or through their website for detailed
information about development regulations and the
permitting process.
The Community Development Services Department
website may be found at
http://www.cityoffederalway.com/Page.aspx?page=
308.
Selection Process
Process
An evaluation committee of stakeholders from the community and City staff will review the
developer submittals. Additionally, the City Economic Development Director will contact
references and brief committee members on those findings. Also, if needed, the committee will
ask for and review supplemental written responses.
The evaluation committee will evaluate each RFQ respondent's strength vis-a-vis the evaluation
criteria and will determine a composite ranking of the respondents. Based upon the composite
rankings, the Federal Way City Council will select approximately three (3) of the RFQ
respondents to be invited to respond to a more detailed Request for Proposal.

In November 2005, the City and Pacific Harbors Council of the Boy Scouts of America entered into a Purchase and Sale
Agreement for Camp Kilworth pursuant to City Council's authorization. A condition precedent was clearing the title of the
reversionary clause before December 31, 2007. In essence the deed to the property specifies that the property reverts back to
the Florence Kilworth and William Kilworth Trusts in the event Boy Scouts no longer use the property for scouting
purposes.
On October 23,2007, the Court entered its "Order Judgment, and Decree Deleting the Reversionary Right in the 1934 Deed
to Camp Kilworth". The Trusts have appealed the Court Order. Thus, the title to the property is not cleared at this time.
However, it may be cleared in the future by an appellate court.
The proposed amendment to the Purchase and Sale Agreement would account for the pending appeal and any future appeal
by extending the deadline for clearing title and for closing the sale.
Attachments: Proposed Amendment to the Camp Kilworth Purchase and Sale Agreement
Options Considered: I. Approve the proposed First Amendment for the Camp Kilworth Purchase and Sale Agreement.

FIRST AMENDMENT TO REAL ESTATE PURCHASE
AND SALE AGREEMENT OF NOVEMBER 4, 2005
("The Camp Kilworth Purchase Agreement")
The City of Federal Way, a Washington municipal corporation ("Purchaser") and the
Pacific Harbors Council of the Boy Scouts of America, a Washington not for profit
corporation ("Seller"), hereby agree in consideration of the mutual promises in The Camp
Kilworth Purchase Agreement and in this First Amendment to amend The Camp
Kilworth Purchase Agreement on the following terms and conditions:
1. Recitals.
1.1 Court Decision to Delete the Reversionary Clause From the 1934 Deed to
Camp Kilworth (the "1934 Deed"). On September 6,2007, the Honorable Thomas P.
Larkin, Judge of the Pierce County Superior Court, Tacoma, Washington pursuant to
notice and a briefing schedule, held a contested herein on the Seller's Petition to remove
the reversionary clause from the 1934 Deed. The Purchaser joined the Seller in support
of the Petition. On September 10, upon notice to counsel for the Petitioner and the
Respondent Trustees, Judge Larkin visited Camp Kilworth. On September 24, 2007,
Judge Larkin issued a letter including his Findings, Conclusion and Decision. On
October 23,2007, the Court entered its "Order, Judgment, and Decree Deleting the
Reversionary Right in the 1934 Deed to Camp Kilworth" (the October 23,2007
Judgment"). On November 20,2007, Respondents, Key Bank of Washington as Trustee
of the Residuary Testamentary Charitable Trust of William W. Kilworth, Deceased, and
the Union Bank of California as Trustee for the Residuary Testamentary Charitable Trust
of Florence B. Kilworth, Deceased, timely field and served their joining Notice of Appeal
from the October 23,2007 Judgment, to Division Two of the Court of Appeals for the
State of Washington (collectively, "the Trustees").
1.2 Mutual Intent to Proceed with The Camp Kilworth Purchase Agreement.
The Camp Kilworth Purchase Agreement is expressly contingent upon (a) Seller being
able to convey title to Camp Kilworth to Purchaser, free and clear ofthe reversion clause,
by December 31, 2007, and (b) the parties being able to close the purchase by March 31,
2008. The appeal by the Trustees will not be resolved by December 31, 2007. However,
Purchaser and Seller intend to proceed with Closing ofthe Camp Kilworth Purchase
Agreement upon a final, non-appealable decision of the Courts of the State of
Washington affirming the October 23,2007 Judgment deleting the reversionary clause
from the 1934 Deed, and therefore Purchaser and Seller agree to amend The Camp
Kilworth Purchase Agreement to extend the term thereof and the Closing deadline
accordingly.
1
NOW THEREFORE, IT AGREED AS FOLLOWS:
2. Amendments to The Camp Kilworth Purchase Agreement.
2.1 Section 2.3 of the Purchase and Sale Agreement shall be amended as
follows:
Condition Precedent to Closing. The Property was conveyed to Seller by Deed of
February 28, 1934, recorded March 1, 1934 under King County Auditor's No. 2789026
under which the Grantors reserved a right of reversion if the Property were to leave
Seller's exclusive ownership and possession or no longer to be devoted to the teaching of
Scout craft. This agreement therefore is expressly conditioned upon the entrance of a
final Order of the Pierce County Superior Court providing for the removal of the
reversionary right or such other modification thereof as to allow the transfer of the
Property by the Seller. Seller shall proceed forthwith upon the signing of this Agreement
to obtain such an approval Order and Purchaser shall provide Seller reasonable
cooperation in proceeding to obtain such an Order.
On October 23,2007, the Court entered judgment deleting the reversionary clause
from the 1937 Deed, which has been appealed. If the deletion of the reversionary clause
in the 1934 Deed is affirmed and no longer subject to appeal, the parties shall proceed
with the purchase and sale of the property within ninety (90) days of the final decision.
2.2 Section 3.1 of the Purchase and Sale Agreement shall be amended as
follows:
Closing of the Sale. This sale shall be closed ninety (90) days from Purchaser's
notice to Seller of Purchaser's satisfaction of the contingencies set forth in Section 4.1
herein, or at another time agreed to in writing by the parties.
2.3
follows:
Section 4.1 of the Purchase and Sale Agreement shall be amended as
The Contingencies. Purchaser's obligations under this Agreement are conditioned
upon and subject to Purchaser's satisfaction, in its sole discretion, or Purchaser's written
waiver ofthe following contingencies:
(a) Seller shall be able to transfer Title to the Property free of all
encumbrances, defects, or restrictions in accordance with the final, non-
appealable court order.
(b) Purchaser's determination that the soils of the Property, or
structures or improvements on the Property, are free from any hazardous
substances whatsoever. Seller shall reasonably cooperate with the
Purchaser to provide such information that the Purchaser requests to the
extent that such information or documents exist and are under the control
of the Seller, and grant to the Purchaser the right to enter the property at
reasonable times to inspect and obtain necessary samples from the same.
This contingency is solely for Purchaser's benefit and shall be determined
in the exercise of Purchaser's sole discretion;
2
(c) Final approval of this Agreement by the City Council of Federal
Way;
(d) The truth and accuracy of all representations and warranties of
Seller;
( e) The absence of any violation of federal, state or City laws
including without limitation, all City codes, ordinances, resolutions,
regulations, standards and policies, as now existing or hereafter adopted or
amended, effecting the use, occupancy or condition of the Property;
(f) Seller's failure to comply with the order of any court or
governmental authority or agency pertaining to the Property or the use,
occupancy or condition ofthe Property;
(g) The pendency or threat of any litigation or proceeding relating to
the Property; or
(h) Any material change in the Property or the improvements on the
Property occurring after the execution of this Agreement.
3. Confirmation of The Camp Kilworth Purchase Agreement as Amended.
Purchaser and Seller expressly confirm by their respective signatures below, that The
Camp Kilworth Purchase Agreement as amended by this First Amendment shall continue
in full force and effect according to its express provision as hereby amended.

Crestwood Park Voluntary Mitigation Agreement with the City of Federal Way
BACKGROUND:
Northlake Crestwood Park, LLC, submitted an application to Des Moines for a new development
consisting of 68 single family lots. Pursuant to the SEP A process, which required notice to affected
agencies, the City received copies of the SEP A checklist, a Traffic Impact Analysis, and other related
information concerning the proposed development. Based on the Traffic Impact Analysis, as well as the
City's own traffic analysis, the City determined that the proposed development would result in significant
adverse impacts (based on 10 or more pm peak hour trips) to traffic within the City along Pacific
Highway South (SR 99) corridor (SR 99 Phases III and IV TIP projects). To accommodate increased
traffic levels and mitigate direct impacts, the City determined a $36,029 pro-rata share contribution
should be paid to the City.
The item was discussed previously at the November 6, 2007 City Council meeting. A Voluntary
Mitigation Agreement is attached. Staff recommends authorizing the City Manager to execute the
agreement.

Voluntary Mitigation Agreement
THIS AGREEMENT ("Agreement") is dated effective this _ day of 20 . The
parties ("Parties") to this Agreement are the City of Federal Way, a municipal corporation of the State of
Washington ("City"), and NortWake Crestwood Park, LLC, a limited liability company ("Property
Owner").
A. The Property Owner owns or has a purchaser's interest in a real estate purchase and sale
agreement concerning certain real property located within the City of Des Moines ("Des Moines") and
more particularly described in Exhibit A, attached hereto and incorporated by this reference ("Property").
B. The Property Owner has applied to City of Des Moines for a preliminary plat PUD application
of eight lots into sixty-eight single family lots, with zero lot line town-home lots proposed on lots 8-13, to
be known as Crestwood Park, PUD, and pursuant to City of Des Moines File Numbers LUA 06-56
("Permit Application").
C. The proposed preliminary plat is approximately 13.56 acres in size and includes on-site and off-
site improvements consisting of roadway and storm drainage improvements, regulated wetlands, as well
as recreation open space to be located on the Property, which development is more particularly described
in the documents and records on file with City of Des Moines in connection with the Permit Application
("Proposed Development").
D. The Property Owner submitted an environmental checklist ("Checklist") to the City of Des
Moines to determine if significant adverse impacts on the quality of the environment resulted from the
Project, as required by the State Environmental Policy Act ("SEP A").
E. As lead agency under SEP A, the City of Des Moines performed its environmental review and
issued a Determination of Non significance (DNS) on October 18,2007, for the Proposed Development.
F. Pursuant to the SEPA process, which requires notice to affected agencies, the City received
copies of the SEP A Checklist, a Traffic Impact Analysis prepared by Transportation Engineering
NorthWest, LLC, for the Proposed Development (the "TIA"), and other related information concerning
the Proposed Development as well as the DNS.
G. The City has had an opportunity to review the preliminary plat drawings of the Proposed
Development, the DNS, and the other related information concerning the Proposed Development. The
City has also had an opportunity to conduct a traffic analysis for the proposed development which
contains assumptions and calculations regarding trip generation, trip distribution and assignment, level of
service, and project generated traffic impacts.
H. Based on its analysis and review of the Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA) prepared by
Transportation Engineering NorthWest, LLC, dated January 2007, the City determined that the Proposed
{00592739.DOC;4}Crestwood Park PUO Agreement
Federal Way File #07-103724-IA
Doc. I.O. 42863
Development will, without specific mitigation, result in an adverse impact to traffic within the City along
the Pacific Highway South (SR 99) corridor (SR 99 Phases III and IV TIP projects).To accommodate
increased traffic levels and mitigate direct impacts of the Proposed Development, the City determined that
a $36,029.00 pro-rata share contribution should be paid to the City of Federal Way.
L The City and the Property Owner wish to avoid uncertainty and consequent delay of the City of
Des Moines SEP A and subdivision approval processes concerning the Proposed Development, and of any
subsequent appeal process, and therefore have voluntarily entered into this Agreement.
Now, THEREFORE, the Parties agree as follows:
