CHAPTER SIX - CAPITAL FACILITIES
6.0 INTRODUCTION
T'he City of Federal Way is expected to add 6,188 housing units and 7,481 jobs between
the years 2001 and 2022. This growth will stimulate the local economy and maintain a
diverse and vibrant community. r r�F �+..�^*°'��, .� It wil( also generate a corresponding
demand for new pub(ic services and facilities, such as schools, parks, and streets. These
new faci(ities, and the financial implications they wil( have for Federal Way and its
citizens, are the subject of this chapter.
The Growth Management Act
`fhe Growth Management Act (GMA) refers to capital facilities planning in two of the 13
statewide planning goals. The two re(evant goals are:
Urban growth. Encourage development in urban areas where adequate
public facilities and services exist or can be provided in an efficient manner.
Public facilities and services. Ensure that those public facilities and services
necessary to support development shalt be adequate to serve the deve(opment at
the time the development is availab(e for occupancy and use without decreasing
current service (evels below locally established minimum standards.
More specifical(y, the GMA mandates that the City prepare a capital faciiities plan which
contains the following components:
• An inventory of existing facilities owned by public entities, showing the
locations and capacities of the facilities.
• A forecast of the future needs for such facilities.
• The proposed iocations and capacities of expanded or new facilities.
• At least a six-year financing plan that will finance such facilities and clearly
identify sources of public money for such purposes.
• A requirement to reassess the Land Use chapter if probable funding falls short.

FWCP - Chapter Six. Capital Facilities
In the pages that fol(ow, this chapter complies with the GMA requirements for a capital
facilities plan.
Funding/Financing
Typically, cities and the residents they service would like to have higher LOS standards
than they can afford. Federal Way has worked hard to provide the highest LOS possible
without raising taxes. It is a difficult balance to maintain and the City is currently a�a
�* .,,�� � :� �� � +� �:�� ^aa:�:^ �� � ° •°, exploring options to pay
iruv
for capital facilities and the associated maintenance and operations costs.
If the City decides to generate additional revenues, there are several sources availabie.
Some of these revenues are "on-going" in the sense that the City levies the tax and the
revenues are added to the City's general fund on an annual basis. On-going revenues
include property taxes, sales taxes, utility taxes, impact fees, and business and occupation
taxes. The other category of funds is called "one time" funds because the City cannot
count on having these funds availabte on an annual basis. These funds inciude bond sales
and grants such as, TEA-21, [AC, and Urban Arterial Eund money. On-going funds can
be used for either capital facilities or maintenance and operations. However, it is prudent
financial management and adopted City policy that one-time funds be used only for
capita! improvements. As is discussed later in this chapter, the City proposed nvo bond
issues to finance capital facilities in the Fall of 1995. As part of that bond issue, voters
�e�e-�s1Eec#-�e approved a permanent utility tax to pay for the maintenance and operations
costs associated with the new capita( facilities.
6.3 PARKS AND RECREATION
Inventory of Existing Facilities
The City of Federal Way adopted the first Park, Recreation, and Open Space
Comprehensive Ptan in December of 1991. The City updated the Plan in 1995, 2000, and
2006. T'his plan, which is now cal(ed the Parks, Recreation, and Open Space Plan, is
incorporated by reference. The planning area of the 2000 and 2006 Parks Plans are based
only on the City limits of Federal Way, a(though the Potential Annexation Area (PAA) is
inventoried and discussed. As in previous plans, the Parks Plan has been subdivided into
subareas, refened to as Parks Plan Planning Areas (Map vI-3), for purposes of long-
range planning.
The 2006 Parks Plan updates the inventory to include new parks and properties added to
the City's system. [n addition to City-owned parks and open space, the Parks Plan also
lists school district, state, and county facilities, as well as private recreation facilities.

When the City incorporated in 1990, there were approximately eight acres of parkland
available per L,000 population in Federai Way. Since that time, the City has purchased
additional property and deve(oped new facilities. These include the Lake Killarney Open
Space Park, Heritage Woods Neighborhood Park, Wedgewood Neighborhood Park, BPA
Trail I, I[, and III, Madrona Park, Cedar Grove Park, Klahanee Lake Community Senior
Center, Dumas Bay Centre, Celebration Park, Steel Lake Annex facilities, and the
Community Center, which opened March 2007. In 2004, Washington State Parks
transferred West Hylebos Wettands Park to the City. King County has also transferred
several properties to the City in the last six years. These parks and facilities are described
in greater detaii in the Parks P(an.
As of 2006, the City is providing 10.9 acres of park land per 1,000 population. The City's
goal is to maintain a level of service of 10.9 as Federal Way grows in popu(ation and
size. In the past, the City has obtained land through plat dedication. The City is a(so now
considering a Park Impact Fee to provide funds for parks acquisition and development.
In addition to acquiring and developing new facilities, the City has taken administrative
actions to take advantage of other available public recreational facilities. The City
enacted inter(ocal agreements with the School District to jointly operate and maintain
school recreational facilities. As a result, the City joint(y operates and maintains a major
communiry park in conjunction with Saghalie Middle School. Also, the City has
agreements to provide recreational programs and scheduie play fields at several
elementary schools, in addition to middle schools. These facilities are now formally
available nights and weekends, year around for use by local residents.
As referenced above, City residents now have access to 10_9 acres of parks and open
space per 1,000 population. This inventory inc(udes City owned parks and open space
within the City iimits. The City currently provides 1066 acres of parkland, which the City
maintains and operates. Of the total 1066 acres, 522.5 acres is developed for recreational
use areas and 543.5 acres is undeveloped.
Note: Washington State Parks has a regional park facility within the City limits, which
Revised , , , 2010. Communitv Faciii5es VI-3
FWCP - Chapter Six. Capital Facilities
residents often use. Dash Point State Park is 230 acres of state land, which provides a
regional (statewide) recreation use for camping, swimming, picnicking, walking trails,
and beachfront. The state park land is not included in the City's LOS simply because the
state owns, operates, and maintains this facility. Eor the purposes of parks planning, the
recommended LOS standard in the City's Parks Plan and this Capital Eacilities chapter is
10.9 acres ofCity owned park(and per 1,000 population.
Forecast of Future Needs
The 2006 Parks Plan states that the inventory• of public park and open space land will be
adequate to serve both the current and fiiture projected population within the City and
PAA. However, much of this acreage is un-programmed, undeve(oped open space. The
primary deficiency, both now and projected, is in improved trails.
T'he updated Parks Plan makes recommendations based on five Core Values identified
through an extensive planning process. Four of these relate to capital facilities and include:
Core Value #l: [mprove Existing Eacilities and Provide Multiple Functions in Parks
Core Value #2: Devetop a Walking and Biking Community Through an [ntegrated
Trail and Sidewalk Network
Core Value #3: Retain and Improve Our Open Spaces
Core Value #4: Create Community Gathering Place and Destinations
Capital faci(ities that respond to these Core Values have been incorporated into the Six-
Year CIP. Some of the major efforts p(anned for this six year period include:
• Design and redevelopment of Lakota and Sacajawea Parks
�„ ,.:�:,._ ,..cr,,..,._ v:i...,...�w ,,.,�t�. � '. �a t� �li,._.. ..�.�:,.
�
• Introduction of community gathering spaces in neighborhood parks
• Site and bui(ding assessments for Dumas Bay Centre
• Trail and Pedestrian improvements
• Upgrade Saghalie Park soccer field to artificial turf
In addition, the City completed a cultural arts survey in (994. The survey evaluated
several alternatives for a performing arts center and concluded that at some time in the
near future, the City would need such a facility with a capacity of about (,000 seats. The
City has converted a portion of Dumas Bay Centre into the Knutzen Family Theatre, a
250-seat civic theater facility. This facility tivi(( begin to fulfill the identified community
need for a performing arts center.

The City biennia((y updates its Parks & Recreation Capital Improvement Plan. T'hese
updates reflect new project priorities, eliminate projects that have been completed, and
add new projects to the program.

6.4 Community Facilities
Significant community investments have been made in the last 10 years to implement the
community's vision for Federal Way. In addition to the investments in the surface water,
transportation, and parks areas, the City also acquired and improved a basic set of
community faci(ities to house City operations and provide space for community
gatherings and recreation.
The City acquired ��" �„�����yTco..�,,..r-o..+e,. �ur r��_�nd Dumas Bay
Centre (a conference and retreat facility) in 1993. Strong local support in community
recreation and arts activities translated into the City Council's adoption of a 2% For the
Arts ordinance to provide funding for arts in public places in 1994, and the construction
of the 254-seat Knutzen Eamily Theatre in 1998. � City Ha(l, which consolidates

Inventory of Existing Facilities
As of January 2007, the City o�vns or occupies a number of facilities, as shown in Table
vI-�l and Map vI-�.
Projected Community Needs
T'he City has identified a number of facilities to help deliver services more efficiently and
adjust to the changing demographics of this community in the future. These projected
needs are beyond the City's ability to fund within the six-year planning horizon.
However, in order to keep the community's vision alive, we purposely did not exclude
any of these community projects. The City Council will periodically review and prioritize
these projects and provide funding when available. A description of these facilities with a
summary list is provided in Table [�I-�.

Pursuant to an interlocal a�?reement, the Cities of Auburn, Burien, Des Moines, Federai
Way, Renton, SeaTac, and Tukwila Washing,ton have a reg ed to jointly develop,
construct, maintain, and operate a consolidated correctional facility to be located in Des
Moines, Washin�ton, to provide correctional services essential to the preservation of the
pub(ic health, safetv, and welfare serve for these cities. As part of this agreement, an
autonomous public a�ency was formed, the South Correction Entity (SCORE) with
representation from the cities of Auburn, Burien, Des Moines, Federal Way, Renton,
SeaTac, and Tukwila. Col(ectivelv, the cities represent almost 340,000 citizens in South
Kin Countv.
As a result of the shortage of jail beds, Kin�Coun ,ty notified the cities in 2000 that theX
wou(d no longer be able to house misdemeanant inmates after 2012. Many cities have
contracted with other jail facilities in Eastern Washington to house inmates as an interim
measure. However, these contracts expire even sooner, in 2010. While these contracts have
provided short term relief for the jail crisis, they are not a(ong-term solution and additiona(
capacitv must be built. For example, the SCORE cities are currently using approximatelv
350 jail beds everv dav. However, the Renton and Auburn jails can onlY house 100
inmates, leaving a need for an additional 250 beds. This is the current deficiency. As the
populatio❑ in the region expands, the shorta�e of jail beds will become even reg ater•
All of the Kin� Coun cities participated in a lon -tg erm jail needs studv in 2006. This
study is known as the Ricci-Greene Study. The study suggested that two sub-re i� onal
jails be constructed. The study revea(ed that 1,440 beds would be needed b,y a(l the cities
by 2026. Of the 1,440 beds. 700 of them are needed in South King Countv. After the
Ricci-Greene Study was completed, the SCORE cities completed a separate feasibility
study to determine if the cities could provide equivalent jail services at a reduced cost.
The feasibili study revealed that SCORE could provide the same services at a reduced
rate, benefiting the tax pavers of the SCORE citizens.
The $80.5 million facilitv will be a sing(e-storY buildin� with a housin�mezzanine
constructed on a sited owned by SCORE located in Des Moines, Washington. The facility
Revised , , , 2010 Communitv facilities VI-8

will be ap�roximately 137 000 s�uare feet with associated parkin� and site improvements
on a 15.613-acre collection of parcels. The site is near Des Moines Creek Park where
South 208` Street intersects with 18`�' Avenue South. T'he facility is desi�ned to house up
to 822 inmates_ There will be ap�roximately 120 employees at the facility. The majority of
those will be corrections officers followed by medical staff and administrative personne(.
Ownership and the financial commitment to SCORE are prorated based on the ci �'s
2007 avera�e dail�prisoner population—for Federal Wav that is 69 operational beds, or
18 �ercent of the project.
Maintenance Facility
The Parks and Pub(ic Works maintenance facility is located at 31 l32 28`�' Avenue South.
The entire site is approximately 1.4 acres, with 1,060 square feet of office space and a
61,000 square foot fenced storage yard. The City acquired two adjacent parcels, for a
total of 2.25 acres, to the north of the facility in 2003. �['oday, the maintenance facility
contains around 3,500 square feet of office space and 90,000 in fenced storage space,
with an additional L� acres of land area availabte for future expansions.
Parks Maintenance operates seven days a week, two shifts per day. The space needed for
the maintenance operations includes a front countedreception area, crew quarters
(inc(uding an area for daily time cards, breaks, and crew meetings/training, etc.), as wetl
as a locker room. Public Works streets and surface water maintenance operations have
similar needs for office space; operating Monday through Friday, year round, one shift
per day. Both Parks and Public Works maintenance operations tend to intensify during
the summer months and require up to 15 part-time, seasonal workers at any given time.

FWCP—Chapter Six, Capitai Facilities
Conference/Performing Arts Center
[n 1994, the City of Federal Way, through the Arts Commission, asked AMS Planning
and Research to conduct a feasibility study of a cultural arts facitity to serve the City.
Under the guidance of a 27-member steering committee, AMS conducted a survey of
locat arts organizations, analysis of existing cultura( and meeting facilities, market
research with residents of the City and surrounding communities, interviews with key
community leaders representing government and business, and meetings and workshops
with the steering committee, all of whom provided base information. The study
recommended a performing arts center to seat 1,000 patrons and a visual arts gal(ery.
The performing arts center proposed in this study included design criteria that
incorporated multi-level seating to accommodate as many as 500 — 600 people on an
orchestra leve(, while sti(( achieving intimacy for audiences.
The construction cost for a performing arts theater was estimated in the 1994 report to be
between $190 —$240 per square foot. Adjusted to 2007, the per square foot cost can
easily be $400 —$500, or $25 to $30 million for construction. Site requirements cal(ed for
a minimum of five acres; two acres for the facility and three acres to provide for surface
parking and to meet additional code requirements. Alternativety, two to two and a ha(f
acres would be needed if structured parking is used_ The additional cost for structured
parking would be $5 to $8 mi(lion. Based on these assumptions, the fu(l developmental
cost is expected to be $35 to $40 million.
Maintenance and operation costs for a facility of this size were estimated to be $750,000 per
year. Projected revenues (using a 171 event day schedule) was $390,000, leaving a net
operating cost of $360,000 to be generated through fundraising or an operating endowment.
Conference/Performing Arts Facility Recommenclation
• 50,000 square foot facility
• Two-acre site
• $35 — $40 million
Multipurpose Competitive Sports Center
The City of Federal Way enacted a� one percent lodging tax and formed the Lodging
Tax Advisory Committee (LTAC) in 1999 to promote and enhance the local tourism
industry. The committee has commissioned a feasibility study for an indoor competitive
sports facility that will increase visitors' stay in local hote(s and complement the Aquatic
Center and Ce(ebration Park, two other regionaUnational amateur sports facilities in the
City.
A number of development concepts have been considered, one of which is a faci(iry for
basketball and volleyball. tournaments with an athletic club for training/conditioning to
generate on-going usage and revenue. One of the considerations for such a faciiity would

FWCP — Chapter Six, Capital Facilities
be its ability to be financiaily self-sustaining. [t would also ideally be developed and
operated by the private sector, with minimum or no public participation.
Conference/Performing Arts Facility Recommendation
• 75,000 square foot facility
• Five-acre site
•$10 —$12 million development and construction only, to be funded by private
deve(oper
Public Parking Facility
The existing city center development is currently near or at capacity with the required
surface parking to business-space ratio. To intensify the development, such as the multi-
story mixed-use devetopments envisioned by the community, additional parking space
will be needed. These additiona( parking spaces wou(d most (ikely be achieved through
structured parking, consistent with the mu(ti-story mixed-use business space.
These structured parking facilities are (ikely needed in order for each of the super-blocks
to regain grounds for redevelopment. With the construction cost of structured parking at a
premium when compared to (and cost, some public/private partnership would likely be
needed for them to be financially feasible. The partnership may be in various forms, but
the essence is consistent that pub(ic funds are invested to secure certain amount of
parking spaces in an otherwise private-business parking facility.
Public Parking Facility Recommendation
200 to 400 designated public parking spaces in conjunction with private(y developed
parking structures for redevelopment projects located within the City Center.
Between $5 —$10 million total. Investments wi(I vary depending on the need and
type of redevelopment projects at eaeh location. City funding sources wou(d be a
combination of the City's economic deveiopment incentive fund and other state and
federal economic development, and/or infrastructure funding sources.
Financing Plan
[t is desirab(e to have al( theses facilities in the community as soon as possible. However,
unless they are funded with private or voter-approved funding sources, the City's projected
revenues will not support either the devetopment or the required operating and on-going
maintenance of these facilities.

South The amended Planned Action sub-area is shown on Map VII-2A. [Onlv this para�raph
and Map VII-2A were revised in 2010. 7
Infrastructure
Most of the existing facilities and infrastructure were inherited from King County. In 1998, the
City adopted new streetscape guidelines related to roadway profiles, streetlights, sidewalk widths,
and street trees. In 1999, South 312` Street between Pacific Highway South and 23` Avenue
South was widened to five lanes, and new sidewalks, street lighting, and street trees were added,
as well as traffic signals at 20`�' Avenue South and 23 Avenue South. In 2001, South 320 Street
was improved with streetscape elements between 11`�' Place South and 30` Avenue South. In
2002, the remainder of South 320�' Street also was improved and 23 Avenue South was widened
to five lanes with sidewalks and streetscape elements. New traffic signals at South 316�', South
317` and South 322 Streets were installed.
Pacific Highway HOV Lanes, Phase I constructed in 2002-2004, widened Pacific Highway South
with an HOV lane in each direction from South 312 to South 324 The project also added
sidewalks, center medians, landscaping, and utility undergrounding. This project was the City's
first of five to improve the Pacific Highway/International Boulevard corridor and was a
continuation of the revitalization of the City Center.
7.2 VISION STATEMENT
By the end of the comprehensive planning horizon, the Federal Way City Center will have
evolved into the cultural, social, and economic center of the City and fulfilled its role as one of
Puget Sound's regional network of urban centers. This role will be reinforced by pedestrian-
oriented streetscapes; an efficient multi-modal transportation system; livable and affordable
housing; increased retail, service, and office development in a compact area; a network of public
spaces and parks; superior urban design; and a safe, essential, and vibrant street life.
The City Center is responsive to the needs of the City's residents. In addition to general services
that draw people from outside the region, such as retail, office, and hotel uses, the City Center is
the primary commercial area providing local goods and services to the surrounding
neighborhoods, and to residents and employees within the center area.
Private development and City initiated actions will have resulted in a balanced
transportation network that accommodates automobiles, public transportation, high
occupancy vehicles, pedestrians, bicyclists, and integrated parking. Pedestrian and
bicycle circulation is emphasized along with other travel modes. The downtown urban
fabric includes smaller blocks, lending itself to efficient and pleasant travel. Concentrated
