A. Public Requests for Zoning Code Changes – Six requests from citizens to change existing zoning regulations

batting cages, higher density multi-family units, and health clubs. The remaining two requests are for changes to
the Business Park zone to allow more flexibility of office uses. The Committee m/s/c recommendation to the City
Council at its June 4, 2002, meeting to set a public hearing for June 17, 2002, to consider moving the requests
forward for more discussion and review.
B. Possible Expansion of Federal Way Potential Annexation Area (PAA) – At the request of Eric Faison, Land
Use/Transportation Committee Chair, staff conducted preliminary research regarding the expansion of the existing
Federal Way PAA boundary to include three separate areas located in unincorporated King and Pierce Counties.
Officials of both King and Pierce County have indicated interest in formal discussions on such proposals. To study
the areas under consideration would increase the current PAA Study contract budget of $240,000 by 42% and
would add approximately four to five months to the current project schedule. The Committee suggested that staff
add this project to the 2003-2004 budget process as a new initiative.
C. Interlocal Agreement for Storage Space - The City is in need of additional space for the installation of a 6000-
gallon liquid storage tank that would hold a liquid de-icing agent for City snow and ice removal operations. King
County has agreed to house the storage tank at the King County Star Lake Maintenance Facility where the County
stores its own liquid de-icing storage tank. The Committee m/s/c recommendation of approval to the City Council at
its June 4, 2002, meeting, of an Interlocal Agreement to establish the rights and responsibilities of the City and the
County.
