SUBJECT: Speed Limit Ordinance - Proposed Changes
BACKGROUND:
�eed Limit Ordinance
The City Council has authority to determine all speed limits in Federal Way, except on state
highways where the Washington State Transportation commission has sole authority. Streets not
explicitly defined in the code default to the state maximum speed limit, which is 25 mph on city
streets. The City Council also has the authority to reduce the minimum speed limit of 25 mph to
20 mph under special considerations.
Staff is updating the code for speed limits within the new annexation areas since 2005, park
roads, gravel roads, and staff requests for three street locations. Citizen requests for the revision
of existing speed limits on three major streets have been received this year.
1) Newly annexed areas where posted limits exist that are not defined by code include the
following:
Military Rd S: S 320 St to SR18
Milton Rd S: S 369�' St to S 376�' St
2) All park internal roadways where posted speed limits exist that are not defined by code
and any future internal park road are proposed at 20 mph and include the following:
French Lake Park
Steel Lake Park
Steel Lake Maintenance
Celebration Park
Community Center
Saghalie Park
Lake Killarney Park
Land Use and Transportation Committee
3) Traffic Staff requests include the following locations:
City Center 20 Ave S: S 312�" St to S 320 St (increase from 25 mph to 30 mph)
S 317�' St: 23r Ave S to 28 Ave S(reduction from 35 mph to 30 mph)
18�' Pl South: S 341 Pl to S 344 St (adopt posted speed limited at 20 mph)
4) Citizen requests include the following locations:
S 359 St: SR99 to 16�' Ave S(reduction from 35 mph to 25 mph)
S 372" St: Milton Rd S to Milton Rd S(reduction from 35 mph to 25 mph)
City Center 23 Ave S: S 312 St to S 317`� St (increase from 25 mph to 30 mph)
Gravel roadways citywide without posted speed limits (see Table 1)
ANALYSIS
Speed Limit Ordinance
The federal Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices, adopted by the city in FWCC Section
19.135.060, lists the following criteria for determining appropriate speed limits:
a. Road surface characteristics, shoulder condition, grade, alignment, and sight distance;
b. The 85�' percentile speed and pace speed;
c. Roadside development and culture, and roadside friction;
d. Safe speed for curves or hazardous locations within the zone;
e. Parking practices and pedestrian activity;
f. Reported accident experience for a recent 12-month period.
Another criterion that staff would consider is consistency with speed limits on similar streets.
The Institute of Transportation Engineer's Traffic Engineering Handbook provides the following
rationale and guidance for setting speed limits:
■"Proper use of speed regulation is based on the recognition that lower speed reduces stopping
distances and generally reduces severity of accidents."
■"Speed regulations and speed limits are intended to supplement motorists' judgment in
determining speeds that are reasonable and proper for particular traffic, weather, and roadway
conditions."
■"However, if drivers do not consider speed regulations to be reasonable, the limits will be
disobeyed and lose much of their value."
■"...the more a driver deviates from the average speed of traffic, the greater his or her chance of
being involved in an accident."
■"The 85 percentile speed as determined by speed studies is a principal factor to be used in the
determination of proper speed limits. It is generally assumed that 85% of drivers operate at
speeds that are reasonable and prudent for the conditions present in each situation. Hence the
85`" percentile speed of a spot-speed distribution is a first approximation of the speed zone that
might be imposed, subject to consideration of other factors, as listed above [citing MUTCD
criteria]."
k:�I.UTC\2010\8-2-10 Speed Limit Ordinance — Proposed Changes Staff Memo.doc
Land Use and Transportation Committee
1) Annexed areas where posted speed limits exist that are not defined by code include the
following:
Military Rd S: S 320 St to SR18 (45 mph)
Milton Rd S: S 369 St to S 376 St (35 mph)
The City has limited collision data on which to base a change in existing speed zones and
no requests have been made to revise these areas. Therefore, staff recommends that the
existing speed limits be adopted and codified.
2) All park internal roadways (depicted in Exhibit A) where posted speed limits exist that
are not defined by code and any future internal park road are proposed at 20 mph and
include the following:
French Lake Park
Steel Lake Park
Steel Lake Maintenance
Celebration Park
Community Center
Saghalie Park
Lake Killarney Park
T'he City Law Department findings dictate that internal roads in City parks qualify as
"highways" by statute, and are therefare subject to the statute that limits a city's ability to
set speed limits to between 20 and 60 mph. Therefore, staff recommends that the existing
speed limits be adopted and codified for these parks.
3) Traffic Staff requests include the following locations:
Cit Center 20 Ave S: S 312�' St to S 320 St
20 Ave S is a two-lane principal collector with a two-way left turn lane and bike lanes.
This roadway is parallel to 23rd Ave S. The posted speed limit is 25 mph, the 85`
percentile for S 312�' St to S 316 St is 32.2 mph and the 10 mph pace is 23 mph to 33
mph. The 85�' percentile for the S 316�' St to S 320�' St is 313 mph and the 10 mph pace
is 22 mph to 32 mph. The roadside is developed multi-family and commercial while
planned for mixed-use high-rise in the vicinity.
The corridor collision history for the last recorded 5 years is listed below:
2005 0 collisions
2006 1 collisions — Fixed Object / Parked Vehicle
2007 1 collisions — Head On
2008 0 collisions
2009 2 collisions - Rear End
Staf the speed limit on this roadway be increased to 30 mph.

S 317 St: 23` Ave S to 28�' Ave S
S 317` St between 23` Ave S to 28 Ave S is a two lane minor arterial with curbside
sidewalks, on-street parking, and has one mid block pedestrian crossing. S 317�' St
connects direct access from I-5 to the Regional Transit Facility for High Occupancy
Vehicles. The 85 percentile speed is 34 mph, with a 10 mph pace speed of 23 to 32 mph
with 58% within that range. Adjacent properties are commercial, retail, and multifamily
housing. Currently on-street parking is permitted, and pedestrian activity is relatively
moderate to low.
The corridor collision history for the last recoded 5 years is listed below:
2004
2005
2006
2007
2008
1 collision - Parked Vehicle
1 collision - Sideswipe, 1 collision - Parked Vehicle
1 collision - by Rear End
2 collisions - Parked Vehicle, 2 collisions - by Approach Turn
3 collision by - Right Angle, 1 collision - by Rear End, 1 collision - by
Backing Up
Since the opening of the S 317 St direct access ramps and the Regional Transit Facility
Center, there are a significant amount of buses using this corridor and an increase in
vehicles using this route. Because of the collision types above with parked vehicles and
the significant increase in turning traffic, the 2010 overlay of this roadway segment will
eliminate parking and provide a two way left turn lane.
In order to provide for this safety component, a parking buffer between pedestrian and
vehicles is removed. Staff recommends reducing the speed limit on this roadway to 30
mph.
18' Pl S: S 341 St to S 344�' St
The Developer Agreement between the City of Federal Way and Christian Faith Center
provides for a 20 mph speed zone for the private school walking area of 18�` Pl S.
Therefore, staff recommends that the existing 20 mph speed limit be adopted and
codified.
4) Analysis of each citizen request follows.
S 359 St: SR 99 to 16�' Ave SW
S 359�' St is a two-lane minor collector with a posted speed limit of 35 mph. This section
of roadway has some paved shoulders that vary in width. The horizontal alignment is
mostly straight with one gentle curve. The 85 percentile speed is 39 mph and the 10
mph pace is 29 to 39 mph with 69% within this range. Adjacent land use is single-family
residential and vacant property. There is little parking activity along the roadway's
shoulders. Although there is limited pedestrian activity, portions of the street are used by
high school students walking to and from Todd Beamer High School. There are no
reported mid-block collisions in the last 5 years to support any existing safety issue.

Land Use and Transportation Committee
Speed data was collected during the school year. Staff performed an additional speed
study in the summer months to evaluate the influence of vehicles driven to the high
school. The results of the additional speed study were the same. Staff is recommending
the speed limit remain at 35 mph along this roadway.
S 372 St: Milton Rd S to Milton Rd S
S 372 Street and Milton Rd South is a two-lane principal collector with a posted speed
of 35 mph. Shoulders are surfaced with a combination of gravel and paved surfaces with
widths ranging from two to four feet. The 85�' percentile speed is 39.6 mph and the 10
mph pace speed is 31 to 41 with 7$% of drivers in this range. The roadside is lightly
developed with single-family residential homes. There are two horizontal curves, one
with a posted advisory speed of 20 mph. There have been four collisions reported in five
years all being property damage only.
Since the 85` percentile is within the target range for a posted speed limit and the
reported collision history is small, staff recommends the speed limit remain at 35 mph. Of
concern is the amount of damage the guardrail is incurring from vehicle collisions that
are not reported at the curve. Staff recommends that we research other countermeasures
to remind drivers of curve advisory speeds.
City Center 23 Ave S: S 312�` St to S 317�' St
23` Ave S is a two-lane principal collector with a center two-way left turn lane, bike
lanes and sidewalks on both sides. The posted speed limit is 25 mph, the 85�' percentile
is 32.4 mph and the 10 mph pace is 23 mph to 33 mph. The roadside is developed multi-
family and commercial while planned for mixed-use high-rise in the vicinity.
The corridor collision history for the last recorded 5 years is listed below:
2005 2 collisions — Fixed Object / Parked Vehicle and Rear End
2006 2 collisions — Rear End and Approach Turn
2007 2 collisions — Right Angle and Head On
2008 4 collisions - Ped/Cyclist and Right Angle and two (2) Rear Ends
Approximately ten (10) years ago, Council directed a reduction of speed to 25 mph. The
current ordinance does not reflect this change. The 85 percentile is within the target
range for a posted speed limit and the connecting roadway of the 23` Ave S corridor is
30 mph. Therefore, staff recommends changing the signs posted at a speed of 25 mph to
30 mph consistent with the current ordinance and the eorridor.

Gravel Roads
Gravel roadways citywide without posted speed limits include the locations listed in
Table 1(below). Gravel roadways citywide currently are not maintained by the Public
Works Department and are not part of the enforcement areas of the City Police
Department. Posting speed limits on gravel roadways will require signage for officer
enforcement and City maintenance. Staff recommends that speed limits on gravel
roadways remain unchanged.

with the terms of an unappealed notice and order, a voluntary correction agreement, or a final
order of the hearing examiner. The city may utilize city employees or a private contractor under
city direction to accomplish the abatement. The city, its employees and agents using lawful
means are expressly authorized to enter upon the property of the violator for such purposes.
(2) Recovery of costs. The city shall bill its costs, including incidental expenses, of abating the
violation to the person obligated to perform the work under the notice and order, voluntary
correction agreement or the hearing examiner's decision, which costs shall become due and
payable 30 days after the date of the bill. The term "incidental expenses" shall include, but not

city; costs incurred in documenting the violation; the actual expenses and costs to the city in the
preparation of notices, specifications and contracts, and in inspecting the work; and the cost of
any required printing and mailing. The ^�+�� ^ or designee, or the hearing examiner,
may in his or her discretion waive in whole or part the assessment of any costs of abatement
upon a showing that abatement has occurred or is no longer necessary, or that the costs would
cause a significant financial hardship for the responsible party. The city may authorize the use
of collection agencies to recover costs. The city attorney is authorized to collect the costs by use
of appropriate legal remedies.
(3) Obstruction with work prohibited. No person shall obstruct, impede or interFere with the
city, its employees or agents, or any person who owns or holds any interest or estate in any
property in the performance of any necessary act, preliminary or incidental to carrying out the
requirements of a notice and order to correct, voluntary correction agreement, or order of the
hearing examiner issued pursuant to this chapter. A violation of this provision shall constitute a
misdemeanor.
(4) Report to city council and hearing on cost of abatement. Where costs are assessed under
this section and the person responsible fails to pay within the 30-day period, the enforcement
official shall prepare a written itemized report to the city council showing the cost of abatement,
including rehabilitation, demolition, restoration or repair of such property, including such salvage
value relating thereto plus the amount of any outstanding penalties.
(a) A copy of the report and a notice of the time and date when the report shall be heard
by the city council shall be served on the person responsible for payment at least five days prior
to the hearing before the city council.
(b) The city council shall review the report and such other information on the matter as it
receives and deems relevant at the hearing. The city council shall confirm or revise the amounts
in the report, authorize collection of that amount or, in the case of a debt owed by a property
owner, authorize placement of an assessment lien on the property as provided herein.
(5) Assessment lien. Following the hearing and authorization by the city council, the city clerk
shall certify to the county treasurer the confirmed amount. The county treasurer shall enter the
amount of such assessment upon the tax rolls against the property for the current year and the
same shall become a part of the general taxes for that year to be collected at the same time and

proceeding unless the same is commenced within 15 calendar days after the assessment is
placed upon the assessment roll.

CITY COUNCIL COMMITTEE STAFF REPORT
DATE: August 23, 2010
TO: Parks, Recreation, Human Services and Public Safety Council Committee
VIA: Brian J. Wilson, City Manager/Chief of Police
FROM: Andy Hwang, Assistant Chief of Police
SUBJECT: Purchase 1/6�' of a 2003 Lenco BearCat Armored Vehicle for Valley SWAT with
$22,400 in VNET State Seizure Funds.
Background
Valley SWAT utilizes armored vehicles during operations. The vehicles are essential to the
success of every mission and are a key piece of equipment that provides SWAT members
ballistic protection. One of the armored vehicles currently used by VSWAT is a 1988 "Peace
Keeper" that was obtained from the military via GSA surplus. Over the years, this vehicle has
served the team well but has required significant mechanical and electrical work to keep it in
operating condition. Most recently, studies of the ballistic armor used in the Peace Keeper have
cast serious doubt on the armors ability to defeat rifle fire. In fact, there are several documented
cases where a wide variety of commercially available rifle ammunition has defeated this type of
vehicle armor.
Due to the continuous expense to keep the Peace Keeper operational and the suspect
effectiveness of the armor, the Executive Board for Valley SWAT has been discussing the need
to replace the Peace Keeper for several years. Recently, the opportunity to replace the Peace
Keeper with an armored vehicle that does meet contemporary operational needs has developed.
In late June of this year, a 2003 Lenco BearCat armored vehicle was put up for sale by the New
York Tactical Officers Association (NYTOA). This vehicle was originally purchased by the Los
Angeles County Sheriff's Office SWAT team who used it until late 2007 at which time they
traded it into Lenco for a new BearCat. Lenco completely refurbished the vehicle, updating it to
current day standards. The vehicle was sold to the New York Tactical Officers Association.
They leased it to a small state of New York law enforcement agency for one year. The agency
did not renew their lease for the BearCat and returned the vehicle to the NYTOA. The NYTOA
put the vehicle up for sale. The vehicle is basically a brand new with only 1,100 miles on it since
it was completely refurbished and updated by the manufacturer. The vehicle currently has only
18,000 total miles on it. The price to purchase the used BearCat is $119,000. This provides a
substantial savings opportunity to the agency that purchases this vehicle instead of buying a new
BearCat, similarly outfitted. The BearCat that Valley SWAT currently owns was purchased in
2007 at a cost of more than $260,000.
At the end of July 2010, the Valley SWAT Executive Board sent a Valley SWAT Commander
and Team Leader to inspect the vehicle. It was professionally inspected by a Ford dealership (it
has a Ford F550 chassis). It was checked for mechanical and electrical problems. The vehicle
was found to be in perfect working order. Because of the need for this type of vehicle the Valley
SWAT Executive Board approved the process to acquire this vehicle. These types of vehicles are
rarely offered for resale and this is an exceptional opportunity to replace the non-useable Peace
Keeper at an extraordinary value.
Funding for the purchase of this vehicle is from the Valley Narcotics Enfarcement Team (VNET)
seized and forfeited assets. VNET will be dispersing $22,400 to each of the six participating
agencies of VNET for the purchase of this vehicle. These same agencies are also participating
members of VSWAT. The funds are State seizure funds and are limited in use and must be spent
specifically to enhance local narcotics enforcement. More than 70% of Valley SWAT missions
are directly related to narcotics investigations. The Renton Police Department has already
purchased the Bear Cat with the approval of the Valley SWAT Executive Board and is preparing
to bill each member agency for their $22,400 in VNET State Seizure Fund reimbursement. The
vehicle will be titled and licensed to the City of Renton and will be an asset for all partner cities
of VNET and VSWAT.
Maintenance and Operation costs are already included in the yearly budgets provided by each
agency for Valley SWAT. This BearCat will be replacing the Peace Keeper and should result in
a reduction of maintenance costs due to prior refurbishing and sound mechanical condition.

TO: Parks, Recreation, Human Services and Public Safety Council Committee
V1A: Brian J. Wilson, City Manager
FROM: Andy J. Hwang, Assistant Chief
SUBJECT: Interlocal Cooperative Agreement Valley Special Weapons and Tactics Team
Background
• The Federal Way Police Department joined the Valley Special Response Team (Valley SRT) in
2001. King County and other municipalities within the Puget Sound area make up the multi-
jurisdictional team know as the Valley SRT.
The team would like to change the current contract to incorporate the following changes:
1. Remove the City of Des Moines as a participating agency
2. Change the team name from Valley Special Response Team (SRT) to
Valley Special Weapons and Tactics Team (SWAT)
3. Update addi•ess information on the signature page and remove

INTERLOCAL COOPERATIVE AGREEMENT BETWEEN AUBURN,
FEDERAL WAY, KENT, RENTON, TUKWILA, AND THE PORT OF
SEATTLE, FOR CREATION OF THE
VALLEY SPECIAL WEAPONS AND TACTICS
TEAM
1. PARTIES
The parties to this Agreement are the Port of Seattle and the municipalities of Auburn,
Federal Way, Kent, Renton, and Tukwila, each of which is a municipal corporation
operating under the laws of the State of Washington.
II. AUTHORITY
This Agreement is entered into pursuant to Chapters 10.93, 39.34, and 53.08 of the
Revised Code of Washington.
III. PURPOSE
The parties hereto desire to establish and maintain a multi jurisdictional SWAT Team to
effectively respond to high risk criminal occurrences as described below.
IV. FORMATION
There is hereby created a multi-jurisdictional Team to be hereafter known as the
"Valley Special Weapons and Tactics Team" ("VSWAT"), the members of which shall
be the Port of Seattle, and the cities of Auburn, Federal Way, Kent, Renton, and
Tukwila. The SWAT Team has been in existence for some time, and this Agreement is
being re-entered into in order to remove the City of Des Moines as a SWAT Team
member. The future admission or elimination of a jurisdiction as a member of the
SWAT Team may be accomplished by an addendum to this agreement.
V. STATEMENT OF PROBLEM
King County and the municipalities within the Puget Sound area have experienced
increasingly violent criminal confrontations due to, among other reasons, increased
gang activity; increased drug abuse, distribution, and manufacturing; increased
urbanization; and increased population densities. The ability to safely control, contain,
and resolve high risk criminal incidents such as civil disobedience, barricaded subjects,
hostage situations, gang member arrests, high risk felony arrests, and narcotic or high
risk search warrants has strained the resources of the members' individual police
departments.
VALLEY SWAT TEAM 08-19-2010
;NTER�CCAL AGREEMENT Page 1
Law enforcement efforts directed at dealing with these high risk criminal incidents have,
for the most part, been conducted by law enforcement agencies working independently.
A multi-jurisdictional effort to handle specific high risk criminal incidents, as well as
incidents involving weapons of mass destruction, results in more effective pooling of
personnel, improved utilization of municipal funds, reduced duplication of equipment,
improved training, development of specialized expertise, and increased
utilization/application of a combined special response team. This results in improved
services for the citizens of all participating jurisdictions, increased safety for officers
and the community, and improved cost effectiveness.
VI. TEAM OBJECTIVES
The individual specialty units from each participating jurisdiction will be consolidated
and combined to form the VSWAT Team. The SWAT Team shall service each
participating jurisdiction. The VSWAT Team may also be available to outside law
enforcement agencies as provided by chapter 10.93 RCW.
The objective of the VSWAT Team is to respond to specific high risk criminal incidents
in a manner that provides for the effective use of personnel, equipment, funds, and
training. The VSWAT Team shall respond as requested by any of the participating
jurisdictions and provide a coordinated response to high-risk incidents. As special
needs arise, it may be necessary to request from other law enforcement agencies
assistance and/or personnel, at the discretion of the VSWAT Team Incident
Commander and/or the VSWAT Team Tactical Commander.
VII. DURATION AND TERMINATION
The minimum term of this Agreement shall be one (1) year, effective upon its adoption.
This Agreement shall automatically extend for consecutive one (1) year terms without
action of the legislative bodies of the participating jurisdictions, unless and until
terminated pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.
A jurisdiction may withdraw its participation in the VSWAT Team by providing written
notice of its withdrawal, and serving such notice upon each Executive Board member of
the remaining jurisdictions. A notice of withdrawal shall become effective ninety (90)
days after service of the notice on all participating members.
The VSWAT Team may be terminated by a majority vote of the Executive Board. Any
vote for termination shall occur only when the police chief of each participating
jurisdiction is present at the meeting in which such vote is taken.
VIII. GOVERNANCE
The affairs of the Team shall be governed by an Executive Board ("Board"), whose
members are composed of the police chief, or his/her designee, from each participating
jurisdiction. Each member of the Board shall have an equal vote and voice on all
Board decisions. All Board decisions shall be made by a majority vote of the Board
VALLEY SWAT TEAM 08-19-2010
INTERLOCAL AGREEMENT Page 2
members, or their designees, appearing at the meeting in which the decision is made.
A majority of Board members, or their designees, must be present at each meeting for
any actions taken to be valid. A presiding officer shall be elected by the Board together
with such other officers as a majority of the Board may decide.
The Board shall meet monthly, unless otherwise determined by the Board. The
presiding officer, or any Board member, may call extra meetings as deemed
appropriate. The presiding officer shall provide no less than forty-eight (48) hours
notice of all meetings to all members of the Board; PROVIDED, however, that in
emergency situations, the presiding officer may conduct a telephonic meeting or a poll
of individual Board members to resolve any issues related to such emergency.
The policies, regulations, and operational procedures in effect pursuant to the previous
interlocal agreement shall be in effect without action of the Board and until such time as
they are subsequently altered by the Board. The VSWAT Team written policies,
regulations, and operational procedures shall apply to all VSWAT Team operations.
Thus, to the extent that the written policies, regulations,.and operational procedures of
the VSWAT Team conflict with the policies, regulations, and operational procedures of
the individual jurisdictions, the VSWAT Team written policies, regulations, and
procedures shall prevail.
IX. STAFF
A Tactical Commander, which shall be a command level officer, shall be appointed
annually by the Board to act as the principal liaison and facilitator between the Board
and the members of the VSWAT Team. The Tactical Commander shall operate under
the direction of the presiding officer of the Board. The Tactical Commander shall be
responsible for informing the Board on all matters relating to the function, expenditures,
accomplishments, training, number of calls that the VSWAT Team responds to,
problems of the VSWAT Team, and any other matter as requested by the Board. The
Tactical Commander may be removed by action of the Board at anytime and for any
reason, with or without cause.
The Tactical Commander shall prepare monthly written reports to the Board on the
actions, progress, and finances of the VSWAT Team. In addition, the Tactical
Commander shall be responsible for presenting rules, procedures, regulations, and
revisions thereto for Board approval.
Each jurisdiction shall contribute six (6) full-time commissioned officers, which shall
include at least one (1) Sergeant or other first level supervisor, to be assigned to the
VSWAT Team. Board approval must be obtained for the jurisdiction to assign less than
this staffing requirement. The personnel assigned to the VSWAT Team shall be
considered employees of the contributing jurisdiction. The contributing jurisdiction shall
be solely and exclusively responsible for the compensation and benefits for the
personnel it contributes to the VSWAT Team. All rights, duties, and obligations of the
employer and the employee shall remain with the contributing jurisdiction. Each
jurisdiction shall be responsible for ensuring compliance with all applicable laws with
VALLEY SWAT TEAM 08-19-2010
�NTERLOCAL AGREENIENT Page 3
regard to empioyees and with provisions of any applicable collective bargaining
agreements and civil service rules and regulations.
The Board may appoint the finance department of a participating jurisdiction to manage
the finances of the VSWAT Team. Before appointing the finance department of a
particular jurisdiction to manage the finances of the VSWAT Team, the Board shall
consult with the finance department of the jurisdiction and obtain its approval. The duty
of managing the finances of the VSWAT Team shall be rotated to other participating
jurisdictions at the discretion of the Board.
The Board may, at its discretion, appoint one (1) or more legal advisors to advise the
Board on legal issues affecting the VSWAT Team. The legal advisor(s) shall, when
appropriate or when requested by the Board, consult with the legal representatives of
all participating jurisdictions before rendering legal advice.
X. COMMAND AND CONTROL
During field activation of the VSWAT Team, an Incident Commander, VSWAT Team
Tactical Commander, and VSWAT Team Team Leader(s) will be designated. The
duties and procedures to be utilized by the Incident Commander, the VSWAT Team
Tactical Commander, and the VSWAT Team Team Leader(s) shall be set forth in the
standard operating procedures approved by the Board. The standard operating
procedures approved by the board may designate other personnel to be utilized during
an incident.
XI. EQUIPMENT, TRAINING, AND BUDGET
Each participating jurisdiction shall acquire the equipment of its participating VSWAT
Team members. Each participating jurisdiction shall provide sufficient funds to update,
replace, repair, and maintain the equipment and supplies utilized by its participating
VSWAT Team members. Each participating jurisdiction shall provide sufficient funds to
provide for training of its participating VSWAT Team members.
The equipment, supplies, and training provided by each jurisdiction to its personnel
participating in the VSWAT Team shall, unless otherwise determined by the Board, be
equal to those provided by the other participating jurisdictions.
Each member jurisdiction shall maintain an independent budget system to account for
funds allocated and expended by its participating VSWAT Team members.
The Board must approve any joint capital expenditure for VSWAT Team equipment.
XII. DISTRIBUTION OF ASSETS UPON TERMINATION
Termination shall be in accordance with those procedures set forth in prior sections.
Each participating jurisdictian shall retain sole ownership of equipment purchased and
provided to its participating VSWAT Team members.
VALLEY SWAT TEAM 08-19-2010
WTERLOCHL AGREEMENT Page 4
Any assets acquired with joint funds of the VSWAT Team shall be equally divided
among the participating jurisdictions at the asset's fair market value upon termination.
The value of the assets of the VSWAT Team shall be determined by using commonly
accepted methods of valuation. If two (2) or more participating jurisdictions desire an
asset, the final decision shall be made by arbitration (described below). Any property
not cfaimed shall be declared surplus by the Board and disposed of pursuant to state
law for the disposition of surplus property. The proceeds from the sale or disposition of
any VSWAT Team property, after payment of any and all costs of sale or debts of the
agency, shall be equally distributed to those jurisdictions participating in the VSWAT
Team at the time of dissolution in proportion to the jurisdiction's percentage
participation in the VSWAT Team as of the date of dissolution. In the event that one
(1) or more jurisdictions terminate their participation in the VSWAT Team, but the
VSWAT Team continues to exist, the jurisdiction terminating participation shall be
deemed to have waived any right or title to any property owned by the VSWAT Team or
to share in the proceeds at the time of dissolution.
Arbitration pursuant to this section shall occur as follows:
A. The jurisdictions interested in an asset shall select one (1) person
(Arbitrator) to determine which agency will receive the property. If the
jurisdictions cannot agree to an Arbitrator, the chiefs of the jurisdictions
participating in the VSWAT Team upon dissolution shall meet to
determine who the Arbitrator will be. The Arbitrator may be any person
not employed by the jurisdictions that desire the property.
B. During a meeting with the Arbitrator, each jurisdiction interested in the
property shall be permitted to make an oral and/or written presentation to
the Arbitrator in support of its position.
C. At the conclusion of the presentation, the Arbitrator shall determine which
jurisdiction is to receive the property. The decision of the Arbitrator shall
be final and shall not be the subject of appeal or review.
XIII. LIABILITY, HOLD HARMLESS, AND INDEMNIFICATION
It is the intent of the participating jurisdictions to provide services of the VSWAT Team
without the threat of being subject to liability to one another and to fully cooperate in
the defense of any claims or lawsuits arising out of or connected with VSWAT Team
actions that are brought against the jurisdictions. To this end, the participating
jurisdictions agree to equally share responsibility and liability for the acts or omissions
of their participating personnel when acting in furtherance of this Agreement. In the
event that an action is brought against any of the participating jurisdictions, each
jurisdiction shall be responsible for an equal share of any award for or settlement of
claims of damages, fines, fees, or costs, regardless of which jurisdiction or employee
the action is taken against or which jurisdiction or employee is ultimately responsible
for the conduct. The jurisdictions shall share equally regardless of the number of
jurisdictions named in the lawsuit or claim or the number of officers from each
VALLEY SWAT TEAM 08-19-2010
INTERLOCAL AGREEMENT Page J
jurisdiction named in the lawsuit or claim. This section shall be subject to the
conditions and limitations set forth in subsections A through G below.
A. Jurisdiction Not Involved In VSWAT Team Response. In the event that a
jurisdiction or its personnel were not involved in the VSWAT Team
response to the incident that gives rise to a claim or lawsuit, and judgment
on the claim or lawsuit does not, in any manner, implicate the acts of a
particular jurisdiction or its personnel, such jurisdiction shall not be
required to share responsibility for the payment of the judgment or award.
B. Intentionally Wronqful Conduct Beyond the Sco�e of Emqlovment.
Nothing herein shall require, or be interpreted to require indemnification
or sharing in the payment of any judgment against any VSWAT Team
personnel for intentionally wrongful conduct that is outside of the scope of
employment of any individual or for any judgment of punitive damages
against any individual or jurisdiction. Payment of any award for punitive
damages shall be the sole responsibility of the person or jurisdiction that
employs the person against whom such award is rendered.
C. Collective Representation and Defense. The jurisdictions may retain joint
legal counsel to collectively represent and defend the jurisdictions in any
legal action. Those jurisdictions retaining joint counsel shall share
equally the costs of such representation or defense.
In the event a jurisdiction does not agree to joint representation, the
jurisdiction shall be solely responsible for all aftorneys fees accrued by its
individual representation or defense.
The jurisdictions and their respective defense counsel shall make a good
faith attempt to cooperate with other participating jurisdictions by,
including but not limited to, providing all documentation requested, and
making VSWAT Team members available for depositions, discovery,
settlement conferences, strategy meetings, and trial.
D. Removal From Lawsuit. In the event a jurisdiction or employee is
successful in withdrawing or removing the jurisdiction or employee from a
lawsuit by summary judgment, qualified immunity, or otherwise, the
jurisdiction shall nonetheless be required to pay its equal share of any
award for or settlement of the lawsuit; PROVIDED, however, that in the
event a jurisdiction or employee is removed from the lawsuit and
subsection (A) of this section is satisfied, the jurisdiction shall not be
required to pay any share of the award or settlement.
E. Settlement Process. It is the intent of this Agreement that the jurisdictions
act in good faith on behalf of each other in conducting settlement
negotiations on liability claims or lawsuits so that, whenever possible, all
parties agree with the settlement or, in the alternative, agree to proceed
to trial. In the event a claim or lawsuit requires the sharing of liability, no
VALLEY SWAT TEAM 08-19-2010
INTERLOCAL AGREEMENT Page 6
individuai jurisdiction shall be authorized to enter into a settlement
agreement with a claimant or plaintiff unless all jurisdictions agree with
the terms of the settlement. Any settlement made by an individual
jurisdiction without the agreement of the remaining jurisdictions, when
required, shall not relieve the settling jurisdiction from paying an equal
share of any final settlement or award.
F. Defense Waiver. This section shall not be interpreted to waive any
defense arising out of RCW Title 51.
G. Insurance. The failure of any insurance carrier or self-insured pooling
organization to agree to or follow the terms of this section shall not relieve
any individual jurisdiction from its obligations under this Agreement.
XIV. NOTICE OF CLAIMS, LAWSUITS, AND SETTLEMENTS
In the event a claim is filed or lawsuit is brought against a participating jurisdiction or its
employees for actions arising out of their conduct in support of VSWAT Team
operations, the jurisdiction shall promptly notify the other jurisdictions that the claim or
lawsuit has been initiated. Any documentation, including the claim or legal complaints,
shall promptly be provided to each participating jurisdiction.
Any jurisdiction or member who believes or knows that another jurisdiction would be
liable for a claim, settlement, or judgment that arises from a VSWAT Team action or
operation, shall have the burden of notifying each participating jurisdiction of all claims,
lawsuits, settlements, or demands made to that jurisdiction. In the event a participating
jurisdiction has a right, pursuant to section XIII of this Agreement, to be defended and
held harmless by another participating jurisdiction, the jurisdiction having the right to be
defended and held harmless shall promptly tender the defense of such claim or lawsuit
to the jurisdiction that must defend and hold the other harmless.
XV. PROCESSING OF CLAIMS.
A. Designation of Lead Jurisdiction.
There shall be a lead jurisdiction for processing a claim that is filed with
and against cities for alleged damages and injuries that occur as a result
of VSWAT Team activities. The lead jurisdiction shall be the jurisdiction
within which the VSWAT Team response occurred; PROVIDED, that in
the event the jurisdiction within which the VSWAT Team response
occurred did not participate in the VSWAT Team response, the lead
jurisdiction shall be the jurisdiction within which the incident that required
the VSWAT Team response originated. In the event that a jurisdiction
that was not involved in the VSWAT Team response receives the claim,
that jurisdiction shall notify the other jurisdictions in accordance with
Section XIV of this Agreement, and shall use its best efforts to determine
who is the appropriate lead jurisdiction.

INTERLOCAL AGREEMENT Page 7
B. Assistance of Tactical Commander.
The VSWAT Team Tactical Commander shall assist the lead jurisdiction
in responding to a claim. The VSWAT Team Tactical Commander shall
be responsible for gathering all records relating to the VSWAT Team
response. These records shall include, but are not limited to, incident
reports, notes, transcripts, photos, evidence logs, recorded statements,
documents from emergency dispatch centers, and warrants from all
jurisdictions that participated in the VSWAT Team response. The Tactical
Commander shall also provide a list of personnel who participated in the
response and their contact information. The Tactical Commander shall
deliver all copies of the records to the lead jurisdiction promptly upon
request.
C. Claims of $5,000 or Less.
i. Lead Jurisdiction Responsibilities.
The lead jurisdiction shall be responsible for working with the
Tactical Commander to gather records relating to the VSWAT
Team response. The lead jurisdiction shall provide records to its
insurance provider and shall assist its insurance provider in
assessing liability for acts associated with the claim. The lead
jurisdiction shall notify the other jurisdictions of any determinations
as to liability. In determining whether a claim should be paid, the
lead jurisdiction and its insurance provider shall, at a minimum,
consider the potential legal defenses to the claim and the costs of
defending the claim. �
ii. Liability Determination — Apportionment of Damages.
The lead jurisdiction, with the assistance of its insurance provider
and risk manager, shall determine whether the VSWAT Team is
liable for damages set forth in a claim, and whether the payment of
the claim would be in the best interest of the jurisdictions and/or
the VSWAT Team. In the event the lead jurisdiction determines
that payment of a claim is appropriate, such determination shall be
final and binding upon other jurisdictions and payment shall be
apportioned equally among all jurisdictions that participated in the
VSWAT Team response. The insurance provider for the lead
jurisdiction shall provide full payment to the claimant, and each
jurisdiction that participated in the response shall reimburse the
insurance provider for its equal share of such payment.
Prior to the payment of any claim, and as a condition of such
payment, the insurance provider providing payment shall obtain
from the claimant a complete and total release of liability on behalf
of all jurisdictions participating in the VSWAT Team and each and
every officer, agent, or volunteer of those participating jurisdictions.
VALLEY SWAT TEAM 08-19-2010
INTERLOCAL AGREEMENT Page 8
In the event the lead jurisdiction determines that the VSWAT Team
is not liable for damages set forth in a claim or that the payment of
the claim would not be in the best interest of the jurisdictions
and/or the VSWAT Team, the lead jurisdiction shall notify the other
jurisdictions of the determination, and such determination shall be
binding on the other jurisdictions; PROVIDED, that another
jurisdiction that determines that payment is appropriate may pay
such claim in full, and shall not seek reimbursement from the other
participating jurisdictions.
iii. Letter From Insurance Adjusters.
In the event a lead jurisdiction, in conjunction with its insurance
provider, determines that payment of a claim is appropriate, the
insurance provider shall provide each of the participating
jurisdictions with a letter stating the determination and the bases
for such determination.
D. Claims over $5,000.
i. Lead Jurisdiction Responsibilities.
The lead jurisdiction shall schedule a meeting with all jurisdictions
participating in the VSWAT Team to discuss the claim and to
determine the appropriate manner in which to respond and/or

with all of the jurisdictions participating in the VSWAT Team to discuss
the lawsuit and to determine the appropriate manner within which to
respond and/or defend the lawsuit. The Board and persons listed in
Section XVII of this Agreement shall be notified of the meeting.
XVII. NOTIFICATION OF CLAIMS AND LAWSUITS.

jurisdiction first file a claim with the jurisdiction in accordance with Chapter 4.96
RCW. Moreover, nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed acceptance of
service of a lawsuit, and the fact that a participating jurisdiction provides notice

CITY OF FEDERAL WAY
MEMORANDUM
DATE: September 14, 2010
TO: Parks/Recreation/Human Services & Public Safety Committee
VIA: Brian Wilson, City Manager/ Police Chief
FROM: Cary M. Roe, P.E., Director of Parks, Public Works, and Emergency Management �-
SUBJECT• I'roposed S 332" Street Alignment, Detention Pond Location, and Relocated Celebration Park
' Driveway
BACKGROUND:
The Federal Way Public School District's Service Center project at 1211 S 332 Street includes a code
requirement to build S 332 Street and 13 Avenue S along the property frontage, along with all
necessary utilities. This project will include removal of a portion of the Celebration Park driveway, and
relocation of the Celebration Park's south driveway. S 332" Street is proposed to be built partially within
the current Celebration Park property boundary to allow proper alignment with existing city streets. The
school district is also proposing a new detention pond located in the southwest corner of Celebration Park
to detain runoff from S 332° Street. Staff is seeking PRHSPSC Committee approval of the location of
S 332" Street, the detention pond, and the driveway. Please see attached plans.
There are several reasons the detention pond is proposed to be located within the park:
• It follows the natural topography and drainage patterns of the area.
• It allows Public Works staff easy access to the pond off of S 332" Street for maintenance.
• A detention pond is preferred over other alternatives, such as an underground vault, due to
maintenance and safety issues.
• The City prefers detention and treatment facilities serving city right-of-way to be located on City
property to avoid access conflicts and other legal issues.
• Currently the subject area is a berm created with excess material from Celebration Park
construction.
• Physical constraints make it infeasible to send storm water runoff from S 332° Street to existing
ponds at either the Community Center or at Celebration Park.
In addition to constructing the pond, the School District is required to remove the existing park driveway
located between the Federal Way Community Center and 13`" Avenue S. This was anticipated as part of
the original design for Celebration Park, once S 332° Street was built. The sidewalk within the park will
remain, and the driveway will be relocated to S 332° Street. It is anticipated that construction of S 332
Street and relocation of the driveway will help reduce cut-through traffic in the park, once the street
system in that area is fully developed and 13`" Avenue S is extended to the north.
This information was presented to the Parks Commission on August 5, 2010. There was no opposition to
this proposal. The commissioners were concerned about safety and recommended fencing the storm
water pond.
If approved, the School District intends to construct the street, pond, and driveway in the spring of 2011.
The Public Works Department would then assume maintenance of the pond and street.

Re: Ciarification of Partial Payment
PCS Site Lease # SE 4653A
Site Address: 1200 SW 312�' Stireet, Federal Way
Dear Mr. Lanba:
The purpose of this letter is to clarify the amounts owed and v�rify receipt of partiai payment for the
amounts owing on the above-referenced PCS Site Lease. The current total amount due and payable
for such lease is $19,152.77. This amount is calculated as follows: $1,160.77 for December 2009; and
$17,992.00 for Januazy 2010 through August 2010 (at a rate of $2,249.00 per month). As you aze
aware, the aforementioned lease term was renewed on 12/15/09 at which time the rent was raised by
the City to $2,249.00 per month. T-Mobile neglected to pay rent from 12/15/09 through the current
month of August 2010 as it considered the validiry of the rental increase.
The City is now in receipt of $12,337.37 in checks dated July 26, 2010, which were sent by T-Mobile
for back rent — but which calculated such rent at the old rental rate prior to the December 15�', 2009
increase. As a result, if the City were to cash these checks, the above lease would be current, roughly,
through the month of May, leaving a balance of $6,815.40 owing on the account.
My understanding based on conversations with Gary Abrahams is that T-Mobile West Corporation,
the current tenant under the above-reference lease, hereinafter referred to as "T-Mobile", has now
agreed to pay the City's new lease rate and is in the process of having the amendment to the site lease
containing such increase executed to formally document its acceptance thereof. In the meantime, the
City has agreeci to accept partial payment of the amount owed by cashing the back-rent checks in its
possession to expedite the process in receiving the totai amount owed. By cashing the checks
currendy in City possession, the City and T-Mobile agree that the City is neither accepting the partial
pa.yment of $12,337.37 as a full payment for the amount of rent due nor is the City agreeing to a lease
atnount less than 52,249.00 per month.
As soon as the City receives confirmation of the understandings in this letter by your duly authorized
signature below, the City will process the back-rent checks in its possession that constitute a partial
payment in the amount of $I2,33737 with the understanding that the amendment to the site lease,
which contains the new Iease rate of $2,249.00 per month, will be executed by T-Mobile and an
_

additional payment in the amount of $6,815.40 (the "Additional PaymenP') will be received by the
City promptly thereafter to bring the lease current ttu�ough the end of the month of August 2010.
Following the City's receipt of the executed amendment and the Additional Payment in full, the City
acknowiedges that the rental payments related to the above-referenced lease will be current tlu�ough
the end of August 2010 and waives any claims related to or arising from T-Mobile's failure to pay rent
in a timely manner prior to September 1, 2010.
Thank you for your continued cooperation.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Parks, Recreation, Human Services 8 Public Safety Council Committee
FROM: Lynnette Hynden, Human Services Division Manager �'�Z�Y
VIA: Human Services Commission
DATE: Septem ber 3, 2010
RE: Human Services General Fund and CDBG Public Services Grant Funding Allocation Process
BACKGROUND
Every two years the Human Services Commission is charged with the overseeing the competitive process of
allocating both the Human Services General Fund dollars as well as the Community Development Block Grant
dollars. The funding process is complete when the commission makes its funding recommendations to City
Council. This process coincides with the City Of Federal Wa�s budget process which also occurs every finro years.
For the 2011 and 2012 budget years the Ciry Of Federal Way Human Services Commission with the support of the
Human Services Division joined in with 17 other cities throughout King County and used a joint electronic
application. The joint electronic application was available to everyone and technical assistance support was also
readily available to all agencies throughout King County. The agency could choose to apply for funding from one
city or multiple cities depending on their service areas. After the process had closed in April, 2010 the City Of
Federal Way received 79 applications that totaled over 1 million dollars in requests for program funding to serve
Federal Way residents.
It is anticipated that for the 2011 and 2012 budgets the Human Senrices General Fund budget line item will remain
the same as this current year. Grants totaling $430,000.00 General Fund and $81,606.00 CDBG are to be awarded
to agencies in 2010 for the 2011 and 2012 budget years. The Human Services Commission preliminary awarded
grants totaling $430,000.00 for Human Services General Fund and $81,607.00 for CDBG Public Services. In
addition the Commission weighed in with two contingency plans one for a 10% increase as well as a 10% decrease
in the General Funds.
The Human Services Commission used four strategies as a guideline for categorizing the grant requests. These
strategies were adopted by the City Council when they approved the Housing and Human Services Consolidated
Plan. Strategy I: Support Basic Human Service Needs through Funding of Emergency Services. Strategy II:
Support Programs that Promote Individual and Community Safery throughout Federal Way. Strategy III:
Comprehensive Human Service Nefinrork and Address the Service Needs of Special Needs Populations to Fully
Participate in the Communiry. Strategy IV: Provide a Supportive Environment & Services for Low-Income Families
with Children.
PROCESS
The Human Services Commission members both alternate and voting members were divided up into smaller task
groups associated with each strategy. A lead was chosen to facilitate the group collectively reviewing their
applications and ranking the applications by scoring each application based on its own merits and information
contained in the application itself. A consensus from the team was not the focus but rather a vigorous discussion on
questions or concerns each member had after reading the application. Outlier scores were asked to be examined
and discussed but members were not asked to bend towards consensus.
The applications were scored based on the same standards regardless of the strategy. The individual scores were
added together and then averaged. Applications were then sorted on the excel spreadsheets from the highest
score to the lowest score. Each strategy had the applications broken down to acceptable applications above the
mid point of the scoring and those below. For the most part the applications were well written but the threshold point
was between 90 and 89 percentile per strategy. It was more highly likely an agency would be funded if it fell above
the 90 percentile than below using the rating tool standard.
The funds were distributed as follows: The line item fund of $430,000 was divided among the four strategies.
Strategy I: 40%; Strategy II: 15%; Strategy III: 30% and Strategy IV 15%. The attached excel spreadsheets will
have a corresponding column that is labeled "Proposed Funding." This dollar amount represents the percentage of
the total funds to be allocated. Contingency Plan 1 is assuming the line item budget is increased by 10%. The
Contingency Plan 2 assumes that the line item would be decreased by 10%.
Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program dollars are automatically awarded to the same agencies at
the same 2010 budget level. Two agencies will need to continue to have both CDBG and HSGF dollars as in the
past; however, we have submitted a request for a waiver due to hardship and the down turn in the economy. While
we are hopeful that we might achieve a waiver from HUD we cannot confirm and/or assume. Therefore, the mixed
funding is required for the two agencies.
FINALIZING FUNDING RECOMMENDATIONS
The attached excel spreadsheets represents the dollar amount assigned to each agency. Funding was also
determined based on factors such as: Agencies ability to demonstrate how their program fits within the City's
Strategies. The internal capacity of the agency and how they can effectively manage the program and the funds is a
significant consideration. The location of the services being provided and access for the Federal Way resident is
essential. While an agency can be located outside of Federal Way their explanation on how they will serve the FW
resident has to be reasonable. Consideration should be given to agencies that are not duplicating services but
collaborating with other like agencies in which to leverage their services, resources and funds. Finally, can the
agency sustain the program and outcomes in the foreseeable future?
It is a very difficutt process to read the applications for funding requests and rate their ability by their story and then
award funding to an agency when funds aren't flowing generously. However, we are in a situation with toda�s
economy that more residents need assistance and more agencies need additional revenue sources in which to
sustain their programs. Having over one-million dollars in requests for a budget of $430,000.00 is extremely
difficult. Not all agencies can be funded at a level which balances the grant with the administrative overhead. At
some point a breaking point will occur where the actual dollar of the grant is weakened by the administrative
overhead. As such you will see that with very few exceptions, suggested funding levels are at a minimum of
$5,000.00.
The next step in this process was for the entire Commission to join together and agree to preliminary
recommendations for funding. This occurred in July 2010. The recommendations will then follow a public process
and to begin with agencies were notified of the preliminary suggested award and invited to speak at a public hearing
at which time the Commission can then take into consideration the public's comments and make necessary
changes to their recommendations.
August 30, 2010 a Public Hearing was held and several agency representatives were present and spoke to their
concerns or shared their support of the Commission's recommendations. There were a slight few changes and the
�nal funding recommendations are attached.

Attachments: Proposed 7�' amendment to the Purchase and Sale Agreement
Background: The City negotiated a Purchase and Sale Agreement ("Agreement") with United Properties of
Vancouver, British Columbia for purchase and redevelopment of the former AMC Theaters site in the City
Center. On March 23, 2010 the City Council approved an extension of the closing date to September 30, 2010
for the purposes of allowing United Properties to pursue active potential development entities interested in taking
over the Agreement. On September 7, 2010, the City agreed to assign the Agreement to Twin Development and
authorized the City Manager to execute necessary documents.
United Properties and Twin Development are now requesting an extension of the purchase and sale agreement's
closing date to March 31, 2011, in order to obtain additional time to market the project as proposed by Twin
Development and obtain financing. Twin Development has agreed to deposit $100,000.00 into an escrow
account by December 31, 2010, that will go towards the purchase price or will be forfeited to the City if the
closing does not occur by March 31, 2011. Both United Properties and Twin Development will be in attendance
at the September 21, 2010, Council meeting to formally make their request and present their commitment to the
proj ect.
Options: 1) Approve the proposed 7�' amendment granting an extension of the Agreement's closing date to
March 31, 2011, and requiring an additional escrow payment of $100,000.00 be made by
December 31, 2010.
2) Modify the proposed 7`� amendment as discussed.
3) Deny the proposed 7�' amendment.

SEVENTH AMENDMENT
TO
REAL PROPERTY PURCHASE AND SALE AGREEMENT
(WITH DEVELOPMENT COVENANTS)
This Seventh Amendment (this "Seventh Amendment") is dated effective this day of
September, 2010, and is entered into by and between the City of Federal Way, a Washington
municipal corporation ("City"), and United Properties — Symphony, LLC, a Washington limited
liability company ("United Properties") and Twin Development, LLC ("Twin DevelopmenY').
A. The City and United Properties entered into a Real Property Purchase and Sale
Agreement ("Agreement") dated effective December 11, 2007, a First Amendment dated effective
September 9, 2008, a Second Amendment dated effective September 11, 2009, a Third Amendment
dated effective November 4, 2009, a Fourth Amendment dated effective December 16, 2009, and a
Fifth Amendment dated effective on or about March 24, 2010. (A Sixth amendment has been
approved by the City but has not yet been executed by the parties)
B. The First Amendment modified Section 10.1 of the Agreement as follows: "closing
shall take place on the date that the building permit for grading, evacuation and shoring and/or
foundation for any portion of the Project is issued to Buyer or September 11, 2009, whichever date
occurs first (the "Closing Date")."
C. A building permit has not been issued.
D. Section 4.7 of the Agreement provides that "Any of the deadlines set forth in this
Agreement or any EXHIBIT attached hereto may be extended for a reasonable period of time
equivalent to the time period of all delays directly or indirectly resulting from any reasonably
unforeseen matter or circumstance beyond the reasonable control of [United Properties]."
E. At the September 10, 2009, special council meeting, the Federal Way City Council
approved a Second Amendment to the Agreement to extend the closing date to November 4, 2009,
the date of a regular City Council meeting whereby the City Council may take action to approve
and/or authorize the assignment to Lander KORUS ("Potential Assignee").
F. United Properties and Lander KORUS immediately began negotiations regarding the
assignment of the Agreement and reached agreement on October 8, 2009.
G. Once an agreement was reached with United Properties, Lander KORUS began
negotiating in good faith with two or three Korean corporations that would be capital partners.
H. Concluding trans-Pacific negotiations during the remaining brief time period has
proven to be challenging due to the significant time difference for conducting business, responding
to inquiries, and the need for translation of some documents and responses.
-1-
I. By letter dated November 3, 2009, United Properties requested an additional
extension of the closing date to provide sufficient time for Lander KORUS to secure and finalize the
financing necessary for the project and close the sale of the property.
J. At the November 3, 2009, City Council meeting the Federal Way City Council
approved a Third Amendment to extend the closing date to December 31, 2009, pending the outcome
of December 15, 2009 regular City Council meeting when City Council may take action to approve
and/or authorize the assignment to Lander KORUS ("Potential Assignee").
K. At the December 15, 2009, City Council meeting Lander KORUS represented that
several investors are interested in funding the entire Project, and that they intend to travel to Federal
Way to view the site and meet with officials the middle of January, which has delayed the conclusion
of the financing.
L. By letter dated December 15, 2009, United Properties requested an extension of the
closing date to provide sufficient time for Lander KORUS to secure and finalize the financing
necessary for the project and close the sale of the property.
M. At the March 16, 2010, City Council meeting Lander KORUS represented that there
was investment interest from other entities regarding the project and that more time was needed to
secure funding since SBCI was not coming forward with sufficient funds; and requested an extension
of up to sixty days without consulting United Properties.
N. The City Council set a Special Meeting following the Finance, Economic
Development & Regional Affairs Council Committee on March 23, 2010 for the purpose of
addressing the request for an extension of the closing date.
O. United Properties became aware of the request for an extension, and by letter dated
March 17, 2010, has requested an extension of the closing date to "whatever date the Council deems
appropriate".
P. At the March 23, 2010, special Council Meeting United Properties indicated that
another developer was also interested in an assignment of the project, and requested an up to six-
month extension to provide sufficient time to secure financing given the current economic climate.
Q. The Federal Way City Council discussed the request and approved a Fifth
Amendment to extend the closing date six months (September 30, 2010) on the condition that United
Properties provide a monthly status report to the Finance, Economic Development & Regional
Affairs Council Committee, and that Council would not grant further extensions to this Agreement.
R. On May 18, 2010 United Properties attended the City Council meeting and introduced
Twin Development and requested that the City Council approve the assignment of this Agreement
using Twin Development's development concept.
-2-
S. The City Council requested that Twin Development participate in open houses to
provide citizens the opportunity to comment on Twin Development's concept.
T. Three open houses occurred on June 1 St , June 8�', and June 15th, 2010,
U. On June 15, 2010 the City Council directed Staff to work with Twin Development
regarding the intended assignment of the Agreement and return in an open public meeting for final
action on or before September 7, 2010.
V. On September 7, 2010, City Council authorized the assignment of the Agreement to
Twin Development as the Sixth Amendment and authorized the City Manager to execute any
documents necessary for closing. The Sixth Amendment has not been executed.
W. On September 21, 2010, both United Properties and Twin Development requested
that the closing date of the Agreement be extended to give Twin Development additional time to
market the project to obtain financing.
X. Section 13.4 of the Agreement provides that the Agreement may only be amended by
written agreement signed by the parties, approved by the Federal Way City Council.
NOW, THEREFORE, the parties agree to the following terms and conditions:
1. Closin /C�osin�.
Section 10.1 of the Agreement shall be amended to read as follows:
The Closing shall take place on the date that the building permit for grading,
excavation and shoring and/or foundation for any portion of the Project is issued to

"Closin�"). Buyer shall give Seller and Escrow Agent five (5) business days'
prior written notice of the Closing Date. The Closing Date may be extended onl�y
mutual agreement in writing_si ng ed by Seller and Buver.

2. Additional Escrow Deposit.
Twin Development, as the potential assignee, shall deposit One Hundred Thousand Dollars
(US$100,000.00) into an escrow account established by the City by December 31, 2010. This
deposit shall be applied to the Purchase Price pursuant to the terms of the Agreement. In the event
that Closing does not occur on or before March 31, 2011, this deposit shall be forfeited to the City.
-3-
3. Ratification
Any act done by either party consistent with the authority of the Agreement after the previous
expiration date and prior to the effective date of this amendment, is hereby ratified as having been
performed under the Agreement as it existed prior to this amendment.
4. Full Force and Effect.
All other terms and conditions of the Agreement not modified by this Amendment shall
remain in full force and effect.
5. Counterparts.
This Amendment may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be
deemed an original and with the same effect as if all parties hereto had signed the same document.
All such counterparts shall be construed together and shall constitute one instrument, but in making
proof hereof it shall only be necessary to produce one such counterpart. The signature and
acknowledgment pages from such counterparts may be assembled together to form a single
instrument comprised of all pages of this Amendment and a complete set of all signature and
acknowledgment pages. The date upon which the last of all of the parties have executed a
counterpart of this Amendment shall be the "date of mutual execution" hereof.
