status of grant applications submitted in 2003 and the required match:
.
Pacific Highway South HOV Phase III (South 284th to Dash Point Road), the design, right öf way,
and construction phases, received $615,691 from the 2002 County wide TEA21 (Federal) and a
matching amount of $83,118

C. 2004 Litter Removal Contract Award - Since 1993, Vadis has provided a crew of five developmentally
disabled individuals, a supervisor, and a transport vehicle to collect litter from roads and City facilities
throughout Federal Way- Vadis also performs a variety of other low-skilled operations at great savings to
the City. The contractor's annual compensation level of $49,217 was unchanged from 2002 and 2003
contract levels. Funding for this service comes primarily from the Solid Waste and Recycling budget with
additional funding received from Surface Water Management. The Committee m/s/c recommendation of

D. Planning Commission work Program 2004 - At the beginning of each calendar year, the City Council
approves the Planning Commission's work program for that year. This year, there are work program items
left over from 2003 to be carried into 2004. There are items required by State Law. There are listed items
of potential new work items for the 2004 Planning Commission Work Program as well as other Long Range
Planning reporting or monitoring work required annually by King County or the State of Washington. In all,
there were twenty-two items, one of which was relative to a letter received from J and K Productions
regarding the use of a searchlight for off-site auto sales. The Committee discussed the items and chose
twelve of the twenty-two: numbers 1, 2, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, and 18 from a worksheet prepared by
staff. Prior to making a final decision, however, the Committee requested that staff research further the
claims made in the letter from J and K Productions regarding sales tax contributions to the City as a result of
increased sales generated by the use of a searchlight.

2004 Right of Way Landscape Maintenance - Contract Award
TO:
Jack Dovey, Chair
Land Use and Transportation Committee
VIA:
SUBJECT:
BACKGROUND:
Four bids were received and opened on January 22, 2004 for the 2004 Right of Way Landscape Maintenance
Contract. The bids for this contract are as follows:
Company
Tru-Green Land Care
SS Landscaping Services, Inc.
Canber Corps
Green Effects, Inc.
Bid Amount
$90,667.37
$129,764.31 *
$13S,613.76
$210,038.00*
Available Budget Amount
* None responsive bid, missing bid amount for extra hours
$160,000.00
The lowest responsive, responsible bidder is Tru-Green Land Care with a total bid of $90,667.37. The
amount available in the 2004 budget for this contract is $160,000.00. The large difference between the bid
and the budget amount is because the maintenance costs for the SR 99 Phase II project were not included
as part of the bid specifications, but were accounted for in the budget. Also, this project will be rebid in
2005 and we may not have the same success in obtaining such a low bid.
RECOMMENDATION:
Place the following recommendations on the March 2, 2004 Council Consent agenda for approval:
1. Award the 2004 Right of Way Landscape Maintenance Contract to Tru-Green Land Care, the lowest
responsive, responsible bidder in the amount of $90,667.37.
2. Authorize the City Manager to execute the contract.

West Hylebos Creek Restoration - 100% Design Approval & Authorization to Bid
TO:
VIA:
SUBJECT:
BACKGROUND:
The West Hylebos Creek Restoration Project will restore approximately 3,300 feet of stream corridor
between South 3S6th Street, downstream to SR-99 at the Montessori School. The intention of the project is
to stabilize large quantities of in-stream gravel and over-steep banks, plant native vegetation like conifer
trees, and install in-stream habitat features for salmonids.
The Land Use and Transportation Committee approved the 80% design stage of this project on April 7,
2003. Since then, the following changes are proposed to the scope of the project:
1. The project components on the Snyders' property have been deleted due to the property owners'
unwillingness to grant an easement to the City. These consist of one engineered logjam and native
plantings throughout the adjacent wetlands. Removal of this work will not detrimentally affect the
overall project due to the number of engineered logjams being built overall as well as the plantings
on the adjacent property.
2. The replanting work on the City's Blueberry Farm park property has been deleted from this project
as it overlaps work being done by the Friends of the Hylebos Wetlands. The City has coordinated
with the FOHW on the plant selection and dispersion. The City and FOHW coordinated on a first
phase planting in the Fall of 2003 and will do the same on a second planting in 2004.
Currently the project design is completed and hereby presented for your consideration.

Report

III. History and Background
Granville Place Plat is a proposed subdivision including seven single-family lots on approximately 2.09
acres (Exhibit 8 - Final Plat Map). A proposed resolution of the City of Federal Way, Washington, to
approve the final plat of Granville Place Plat is attached (Exhibit C - Granville Place Final Plat Resolution).
The seven lot Granville Place Preliminary Plat was granted approval by the Federal Way City Council on
May 20, 1997, per City Council Resolution 97-252 (Exhibit D - Preliminary Plat Map and Exhibit E-
Resolution 01-2S2).
Zoning for the 2.09 acre site is Single-Family Residential (RS) 7.2, requiring a minimum lot size of 7,200
square feet. Lot sizes on the Granville Place Final Plat range from 7,200 to 10,321 square feet, with six of
the seven buildable lots exceeding the minimum.
The owner applied for final plat approval on March 14,2003. Improvements installed under construction
files (BLD-0734 and 01-100786-00-EN) were deemed substantially complete in May of 2002, consistent
with plat expiration limits, and are now fully complete. Pursuant to RCW S8.17.110 and Section 20-136 of
the Federal Way City Code (FWCC), the City Council is charged with determining whether: 1) the
proposed final plat conforms to all terms of the preliminary plat approval; 2) if the subdivision meets the
requirements of all applicable state laws and local ordinances that were in effect at the time of
preliminary plat approval; 3) if all taxes and assessments owing on the property have been paid; and 4) if
all required improvements have been made or sufficient security has been accepted by the City.
City of Federal Way staff has reviewed the Granville Place Final Plat for compliance with preliminary plat
conditions and all applicable codes and policies. All applicable codes, policies, and plat conditions have
been met or are financially secured as allowed by FWCC Section 20-13S.
IV.
Compliance with Preliminary Plat Conditions
The following lists conditions of preliminary plat approval as referenced Federal Way City Council
Resolution #97-252. No SErA mitigation measures were required for the proposal. All required
improvements have been completed, inspected, and approved by the City.
1.
Prior to final plat approval, the existing structure on Lot 7, located within five feet of the proposed
south property line, must be removed or relocated to conform to building setback requirements as
established by the Federal Way City Code (FWCC); or lot lines must be adjusted accordingly.

February 17, 2004
Staff Response: This condition has been met. A previously existing shed has been removed from
the site.
2.
Prior to final plat approval, the required off-site hydrant must be installed at SW 344th Street at a
location approved by King County Fire District #39, or alternative fire protection measures
implemented for Lot #7, as approved by the fire district.
Staff Response: This condition has been met. The off-site hydrant was installed and approved per
fire department specifications.
3.
Pursuant to the applicant's proposal to pay a fee in lieu of reserving a portion of on site open space,
as provided by the FWCC, a current market value analysis of similarly situated property must be
submitted to the City to determine the amount of the open space fee under this agreement.
Payment of the open space fee shall be required prior to final plat approval.
Staff Response: This condition will be met by payment of the required open space fee of $19,130
prior to recording of the final plat. Open space fees paid to the City are utilized for neighborhood
park improvements in the vicinity of the subject property. In accordance with code, the open space
fee was calculated on the basis of the June 2004 assessed valuation of the property that would
otherwise have been required to be provided in usable open space.
4.
The existing temporary cul-de-sac easement located east of the site at the existing terminus of SW
346th Place shall be relinquished and documents filed with the City for recording. The applicant is
reponsible to prepare and submit the necessary documents in a form approved by the City. The
applicant shall reconstruct the cul-de-sac area to match the existing improvements. Design and
construction of this street section shall conform to Public Works standards and shall include
sidewalks and street trees within the planter strip, as approved by the City.
Staff Response: This condition has been met. The applicant has removed the temporary cul-de-
sac bulb and reconstructed the area in accordance with code requirements as required by the
Director of Public Works. In accordance with the recorded plat of Southampton Court, the temporary
easement automatically terminated with reconstruction of this area.
5.
Design and location of the temporary barricade adajcent to Lot 7 shall be approved by the City of
Federal Way and King County Fire District 39. This temporary barricade shall be removed with future
right-of-way improvements at this location, and the area reconstructed, as required and approved
by the City.
Staff Response: This condition has been met. The barricade has been installed, inspected, and
approved by the City and the fire department. In addition, consistent with previously recorded
subdivisions, signage has been placed on the barricade notifying the public that the barricade is
temporary and the street will be extended with future development.
6.
The proposed temporary cul-de-sac easement located in Lots 5 and 6 shall be relinquished with
future right-of-way improvements at this location, and the area reconstructed, as required and
approved by the City.
Staff Response: This condition has been met. Plat Note #2 states that the temporary cul-de-sac
easement shall automatically terminate with future street extension and street improvements.
7.
Retention/detention facilities used to control runoff from the site to off-site drainage courses shall be
located in a detention tract dedicated to the City at the time of final plat approval, unless located
within improved public rights-of-way.
Staff Response: This condition has been met. The Tract A surface water detention pond has been
dedicated to the City on the face of the plat and by statutory warranty deed. Consistent with FWCC

2.
The final plat is in conformity with applicable zoning ordinances or other land use controls.
Staff Response: This criterion has been met. The plat meets the zoning standards for the RS 7.2
zoning district. Pursuant to FWCC Section 20-15S, the applicant has opted to and paid an open
space fee-in-lieu of providing on-site recreational open space. As provided in FWCC Section 20-133,
maintenance bonds are in place for installed improvements.
3.
That all conditions of the Hearing Examiner and/or City Council have been satisfied.
Staff Response: This criterion has been met as documented in the staff comments above.
4.
That the public use and interest shall be served by the establishment of the subdivision and
dedication by determining if appropriate provisions are made for, but not limited to, the public
health, safety, general welfare, open space, drainage ways, streets and roads, alleys, other public
ways, transit stops, potable water supplies, sanitary wastes, parks and recreation, playgrounds,
schools and school grounds, and shall consider all other relevant facts, including sidewalks and other
planning features that assure safe walking conditions for students who only walk to and from
school.
Staff Response: This criterion has been met. The final plat is consistent with applicable zoning
and subdivision regulations and ensures the public health, safety, and welfare is protected. The plat
infrastructure has been installed and addressed as discussed above, including safe walking routes to
school; open space fee-in-lieu payment; drainage system installation; water system installation;
sewer system installation; and street improvements, including curb, gutter, sidewalks, street trees,
street lights, and signage.
S.
That all required improvements have been made and maintenance bonds or other security for such
improvements have been submitted and accepted.
Staff Response: This criterion has been met. All road and storm drainage improvements for
Granville Place have been completed, as verified by City staff, and as certified in letters from
Lakehaven Utility District and Tacoma Public Utilities, dated September 24, 2003, and April 15, 2003.
6.
That all taxes and assessments owing on the property being subdivided have been paid.
Staff Response: Prior to being recorded, the plat is reviewed by the King County Department of
Assessments to ensure that all taxes and assessments have been paid.
VII. Conclusion
Based on site visits, review of the final plat maps, construction drawings, and the project file, staff has
determined that the application for final plat approval for Granville Place meets all platting requirements
of RCW 58.17.110 and the FWCC Subdivision Code, Division 6, Final Plat. Plat infrastructure
improvements have been fully completed. The project has been developed in conformance with
Resolution #97-252. A recommendation for final plat approval is therefore being forwarded to the City
Council for approval.

requirements, the property owner is responsible to maintain storm drainage facilities as required by
the City (as well as all infrastructure improvements located within City-owned property) for a period
of two years from the date of final plat recording, after which the City will be responsible to maintain
the facilities.
8.
The final plat drawing must establish the open space buffer in an open space tract to be owned in
common and maintained by property owners of the proposed subdivision, and prohibiting removal
or disturbance of landscaping within the tract, except as necessary for maintenance or replacement
of existing plantings and as approved by the City. The open space buffer shall be landscaped to
achieve and maintain a visual buffer pursuant to FWCC Chapter 20-155 and Sec. 22-1565(c)(1), as
approved by the City and pursuant to Condition below.
Staff Response: This condition has been met. Text note #1 establishes the tract as permanent
vegetated open space to be owned and maintained as such by homeowners. Consistent with the
intent of buffer open space provisions of the Subdivision Code, i.e., visual separation with open-area
vegetation, the applicant has planted a row of trees and shrubs within the Tract B buffer.
9. Prior to issuance of construction permits, a landscape plan, prepared by a licensed landscape
,architect, shall be submitted to the City for approval, and shall include the following elements:
(a)
(b)
(c)
(d)
Open space buffer landscaping;
Street trees in planter strips inside plat boundaries and off site as required by Condition
#4, above;
Significant tree replacement plan; and
Visual screening of all property boundaries of the detention tract from adjacent
properties and the right-of-way with landscaping and/or fencing.
Staff Response: This condition has been met. The landscape plan with required components was
submitted, approved, constructed, and inspected by the Departments of Community Development
and Public Works. Open space landscaping was addressed as noted in staff response to #8, above.
Street trees were installed on internal streets as required by code. No off site tree was installed
because no planter strip is available in the existing right-of-way and the existing improvements in
the adjacent residential subdivision do not include street trees. No significant trees were identified
outside of plat construction areas, therefore, no replacement trees are required per code. The
detention tract has been screened with both landscaping and fencing. .
10. Prior to final plat approval, all required improvements must be completed or the improvements
appropriately bonded, per City Code requirements. Design and construction of plat improvements
shall conform to Federal Way City Code, the King County Surface Water Design Manual, the Hylebos
Creek and Lower Puget Sound Basin Plan, and all other applicable codes and regulations.
Staff response: This condition has been met by construction of all required improvements, with no
outstanding improvements remaining or performance bonds required. As provided in FWCC Section
20-135, maintenance bonds are in place for the installed improvements.
V.
Decisional Criteria
Pursuant to FWCC Section 20-134 (as vested), if the City Council finds that the following criteria have
been met, the City Council may approve the final plat for recording.
1.
The final plat is in substantial conformance to the preliminary plat.
Staff Response: This criterion has been met, as the conditions of preliminary plat have been met
and the final plat fully conforms to the preliminary plat.

All appropriate notices were delivered in accordance with the requirements of the Federal
Way City Code (FWCC).
The applicant has a possessory ownership interest in a 2.09 acre, trapezoidal shaped parcel
of property located at the tenninus ofSW 346lh Place, south ofSW 344th St. within the City
of Federal Way. The parcel, bordered on the south by property within Pierce County, is
improved with a single family residential dwelling and accessory structure on the northern
portion. The applicant is requesting preliminary plat approval to allow subdivision of the
parcel into seven single family residential lots. The preliminary plat shows that access to the
site will be provided by extending; SW 346Ú\ Place through the southern portion of plat. Six
lots are proposed for the south portion of the plat and a temporary cul-de-sac is proposed
between lots five and six at approximately the center of the parcel. A storm detention tract
separates lot six horn lot seven which abuts the north property line and is improved with the
existing structures which will remain. Lot seven will continue to use the existing access onto
SW 344th Street.
5.
SW 346th Place presently terminates in a temporary cul-de-sac at the parcel's east property
line. The applicant will remove the asphalt from the cul-de-sac portion of the road, return
said area to grass, and remove the temporary cul-de-sac easement from the title of the
subservient estates.
6.
The east property line is bordered by the Southhampton Court subdivision and the south
property line is bordered by the Stonegate Division II subdivision located in Pierce County.
The north arid west property lines are bordered by single family residential dwellings on
larger lots, .
7.
The site is located within the Single Family Residential-High Density designation of the
Federal Way Comprehensive Plan and is located within the Single Family Residential (RS-
7.2) zone classification of the FWCc. The RS-7.2 classification authorizes single family
detached dwelling units on minimum 7,200 square foot lot sizes. The proposed minimum lot
size is 7,200 square feet and the maximum lot size is 10,320 square feel. The proposed lot
size and density are consistent with abutting and nearby platted properties within both the
City and Pierce County.
8.

requirements outlined in the King County Surface Water Design Manual including surface
water detention, biofiltration, and oil/water separation. The applicant submitted a Level I

The soils consist of Alderwood gravelly, sandy loam which is moderately well drained,
capable of adequate compaction, and able to support the proposed development. The site is
mostly flat with an average slope of three percent. On site vegetation consists of domestic
shrubs and grasses, alder, blackbeny, and other native species. Four significant trees are on

or excepted to inhabit the site. Replacement of the significant trees and incorporation of
street trees, buffering, open space, and landscaping will assist the small birds and animals
currently on the site. The project}s not located within a sensitive area or 100 year floodplain.
10.
The applicant will install full street improvements for the extension of SW 346lh Place from
the present temporary cuI-dc-sac to the new temporary cul-de-sac, and half street
improvements north of said point. Full street improvements include 28 feet of pavement,
vertical curbs, gutters, sidewalks, and street trees within a 56 foot wide right-of-way. The
half street improvements will include 20 feet of pavement, curb, gutter, sidewalk, and street
trees on the easterly side only. The half street improvements will extend from the temporary
cul-de-sac to the north property line oflot seven within a 30 foot right-of-way. Lot seven
will continue to use the existing access onto SW 344th Street which will also serve as an
emergency vehicle access for the plat.
11.
The applicant asserts that since SW 346th Place is a neighborhood access street, street
lighting is not required by the FWCc. Section 22-1522 FWCC states as follows:
Street lighting shall be required on all rights-of-way, except
neighborhood access streets and culs-de-sac.
Section 20-185 FWCC states as follows:
. a.
All subdivisions and short subdivisions shall install street
lighting on all streets, except neighborhood access streets and
cuI-de-sacs where installation is optional, in accordance with
common design standards for spacing, placement, and
luminous intensity.
b.
Light standard and luminar design shall be approved by the
Director of Public Works.
Section 22-1522 is a portion of the zoning chapter of the FWCC and addresses street
lighting on all City streets regardless of whether said streets are located within a
subdivision. Section 20-185 is a portion of the subdivision chapter of the FWCC and
(
(

specifically addresses standards for new subdivisions. Section 20-185 states that it
is optional with the City as to whether street lighting is required on neighborhood
access streets, Such interpretation is consistent with Section 20-144(C) rWCe-which
sets forth a portion of the criteria which the Examiner must evaluate in a plat
alteration application, Said section states that Section 20-185 applies "only to new
roadways proposed as a result of the alteration of the plat." Thus, in all new
subdivision streets, street lighting may be required at the discretion of the City.
School aged children residing in the subdivision will be served by Green Gables Elementary
School, Saghalie Junior High S~hool, and Decatur High School. Bus stops are currently
located within a few blocks of the plat and may be adjusted depending on student
transportation needs. The plat must comply with the City School Impact Fee Ordinance
which is subject to an annual adjustment and update.
Alderdale Park is located approximately one half mile to the northeast of the site; Olympic
View Park is approximately one mile north of the site; and Crescent Heights Park, within the
City of Tacoma, is approximately One mile to the west. Dash Point State Park is 1.5 miles
to the northwest. Section 20-155(8) FWCC requires the applicant to provide open space in
the amount of"15% of the gross land area of the subdivision site". However, since the site
is less than five acres, the applicant is allowed to seek alternative methods to provid.ing said
open space on site. The applicant is proposing to pay a fee in lieu of reservation as pennitted
by Section 22-155 and as required by a conditional of approval hereinafter.
The City of Tacoma has provided a certificate of water availability indicating its ability to
supply both domestic water and fire flow to the site. The Lake Haven Utility District will
supply sanitary sewer service to all lots.
15.
Section 20-120(B) FWCC requires the Examiner to review a request for preliminary plat
approval for compliance with Sections 20-2; 20-151 through 20-157; 20-178 through 20-187
rwcc; and RCW 58.17.
1 G.
The preliminary plat complies with the subdivision design criteria set forth in Section 20-151
FWCC. The traffic is distributed in a logical manner toward a collector street system and
connects with existing streets. A temporary cul-de-sac is provided, but is not more than GOO
feet in length. The site contains no steep slopes and the streets are designed in confonnancc
with adopted standards for sight distance at intersections.
17.
All lots are designed in accordance with the criteria set forth in Section 20-152 FWCC and
are of ample dimension to provide a regular shaped building area which can meet required
setbacks. All lots are designed to provide access for emergency apparatus and abut a public
street right-of-way. No lots will access onto an arterial street. As previously found 1he

subdivision meets the density and lot size criteria of the RS- 7,2 zone classification. The
applicant is not proposing a cluster subdivision, and as previously found, will satisfy the
open space requirements of Section 20-155 FWCC by making a paymentin-lieu of open
space. Pedestrian and bicycle access corridors are not appropriate as the site is not located
near a bikeway or trail. Sidewalks on both sides of the plat road will ensure safe walking
conditions. No view blockage issue are present.
The improvement and density requirements set forth in Sections 20-176 and 20-177 FWCC
are satisfied. Buffers required by Section 20-178 are not necessary since the site is bo.rdered
by single family residential dev~lopment on all sides. Conditions of approval require the
applicant to retain all natural vegetation except that removed for improvements or grading
as required by Section 20-179. Street improvements meet the requirement of Section 20-180.
The City of Tacoma will serve the subdivision with both domestic water and fire flow as is
authorized by Section 20-181 FWCC and the Lake Haven Utility District will provide
sanitary sewer service as is authorized by Section 20-182. As previously found, the applicant

2004 Home Free Guarantee Contract with King County Metro
TO:
VIA:
SUBJECT:
BACKGROUND
Washington State's Commute Trip Reduction (CTR) Law was adopted by the 1991 legislature and
incorporated into the Washington Clean Air Act as RCW 70.94.521 through 70.94.551. Its intent is to
improve air quality and to reduce fuel consumption and traffic congestion through employer-based
programs by encouraging the use of alternatives to single occupant vehicles (SOV) for the commute trip.
The law requires that all major employers, both public and private, employing 100 or more full-time
employees who are scheduled to arrive at a single worksite between 6:00 a.m. to 9:00 a.m. develop and
implement a Commute Trip Reduction Plan.
The 2003 SOV rate for all City of Federal Way employees working at City Hall is 84%. This is a 1%
reduction since the last survey in 2001. The City's current CTR program includes the following incentives:
.
Up to $30 per month in Commuter Bonus/Bonus Plus Voucher for transit, carpool and vanpool
subsidy
Alternative Work Schedule and Compressed work weeks with approval from the department director
Home Free Guarantee Program
Preferential parking for Carpool and Vanpool participants
.
.
.
The combinations of the incentive program, alternative work schedules and the Home Free Guarantee
Program have been very effective in reducing SOVs. Currently, there are 10 to 15 employees benefiting
from the incentive program, and over 74 employees participating in alternative work schedules (City Hall
only).
HOME FREE GUARANTEE
The purpose of the Home Free Guarantee program is to provide employees participating in car or van pools
with a free taxi ride home in case of either an emergency or a need to work late unexpectedly.
Furthermore, this guarantee also applies to members of a car or vanpool whose driver either has to work
late or leave work early unexpectedly. The current 2003 Home Free Guarantee contract with King County
Metro has expired. Staff would like to renew the contract with King County Metro as it's an essential
element of the overall CTR program. Based on an estimated 150 full time employees at the new City Hall,
the 2004 Home Free Guarantee program contract would cost $150 annually.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends placing the following item on the March 2nd, 2004 Council Consent Agenda:
Authorize the City Manager to execute a 2004 Home Free Guarantee contract with King County
Metro in the amount of $150 funded by the Traffic Division.
