BUSINESS ITEMS
B. RFB 04-110; Sewer Extension Bellacarino Woods - Bid Rejection/Request to Re-Bid -The apparent low bidder
has requested authorization to withdraw their bid claiming that it did not include Washington State sales tax in accordance
with the contract specifications. Staff is not recommending awarding the project to any other bidders because: the second
lowest bidder incorrectly added sales tax as a lump sum; the third bidder did not enter a total bid amount on the bid form;
and the fourth bidder's total amount exceeded the authorized construction budget. The LUTC would like staff to include
clarifying language regarding the sales tax requirements in future request for bids documents. The LUTC m/s/c to place the
following project recommendations on the May 18, 2004, City Council Consent Agenda: 1) reject all bids received on April
5, 2004, for the RFB 04-110 Bellacarino Woods Sewer Extension Project (located in the vicinity of SW 356th Street and 6th
Avenue SW); and 2) authorize SWM staff to re-bid the project and return to the City Council for authorization to award the
. project to the lowest responsive, responsible bidder within available funding.
D. Kitts Corner Development Plan & Development Agreement Update - Staff has a preliminary site plan and is
bringing this issue to the LUTC to make sure they are moving in the right direction and for initial feedback on the proposal.
Len Schaadt - He is the owner of two of the properties for this proposal and represents the rest. They began
this process in 1999, It started as a rezone, but with the City's request for a village concept, became much
more. The owners hired an architect and someone to prepare a market study on the proposal. As the project
developed, they hired additional experts (transportation engineer, land use attorney, etc.) in order to develop a
preliminary site plan acceptable to the City. The project has been scaled back from the original idea and will
have a softer impact. The owners are not developers and do not plan to do the actual development; therefore
the preliminary site plan is a conceptual design.
LUTC feels the preliminary site plan is very well done, It was stated that the market study prepared for this proposal shows
a demand for townhouses and not apartments. There is a parcel to the south that would make sense to include. The owner
had been approached in the past and has shown no interest in being a part of this proposal, but this was a long time ago.
Councilmember Faison suggested this owner again be approached to see if he may now be interested in participating,
F. Overview of 2003 Comprehensive Plan Amendments -Ms. Clark presented an overview because there are a
number of components to the 2003 Comprehensive Plan Amendments,
K:\LUTC Agendas and Summa,ies 2004\May 3,2004, LUTC Mlnutes,doc
G. PM Subarea Plan -This is a component of the 2003 Comprehensive Plan Amendments. The Potential Annexation
Area (PM) Subarea Plan assigns Federal Way Zoning to parcels in the City's PM, in anticipation of a time the area is
annexed. The Federal Way Zoning would not take effect until the area is annexed and annexation would occur only if the
citizens of the area request it.
Steve McNey, All American Homes - He represents the Jackson request. They want a commercial type zoning
and have requested Business Commercial zoning from King County. They had originally supported Freeway
Commercial zoning for the site, but they discovered that car dealerships have no interest in the site. They
would like City zoning of Community Business (Be) so that they can build a grocery store. They do not support
the Planning Commission recommendation of a split of Office Park and residential zoning. They feel it would
reduce the value of the property and would mean a smaller amount of the property could be developed due to
the large wetland buffer. They propose to have a grocery store near 320th Street with parking under the power
lines and a public park close to the neighborhood. They want to be a part of Federal Way and intend to annex.
Louise Davis - She is the owner of the Davis property. This is a thriving business. She worked with King
County to have the property zoned commercial and to have it rezoned back to residential would be a tragedy.
Mr. Dohrn delivered a presentation on the background of this project and Ms. Grueter delivered a presentation on the
process, purpose, key elements, and the plan itself. Mr. Young delivered a presentation on the financial aspects of the plan
and of annexing the PM. The overall picture is negative from simply a cash outlook, but he stated that the decision to
annex is about more than just the financial issues. The City should ask if it is important to the City to be a cohesive whole
by including the PM. There are three assumptions critical for understanding the PM Feasibility Study: 1) the level of
service in the PM would be the same as currently in the City; 2) the level of service in the future would remain the same as
now; and 3) the study is based on current state law and City practices. There are six strategies in the PM Feasibility Study
for how to address the negative fiscal impacts
Ms. Greuter went over the site-specific requests and explained the staff and Planning Commission recommendations.
Discussion was held on each of the requests. It was m/s/c to recommend Neighborhood Business (BN) zoning for the
Davis Site-Specific Request. It was m/s/c to recommend Single-Family High Density zoning (RS 9.6) for the North Lake
Site-Specific Request. It was m/s/c (two yes, one no) to recommend BN zoning for the Rabie Site-Specific Request.
The Jackson Site-Specific request was tabled until the next LUTC meeting. It was felt this request could not be adequately
addressed without an understanding of the proposed Freeway Commercial (FC) zone; therefore, Ms. Shull delivered a
presentation on the proposed FC zone. The intent is that this zone would capture retail markets not currently locating in
Federal Way, and would thereby increase the City's tax base.
Steve McNey - He likes the FC zone. At first they were considering a car dealership for the Jackson property,
but car dealerships are not interested in the Jackson area. We don't want to negatively affect the
neighborhood, which is why we are proposing a park, and maybe residential, to the north and a grocery store
to the south. We feel a store in this area would lessen the traffic congestion going into Federal Way.
Cindy Cope - She lives in the neighborhood near the Jackson request and has signed a neighborhood petition
that the northern part of the Jackson request should be zoned residential. Anything else would negatively
affect property values and the quality of life for the neighborhood. We don't need additional retail space in
Federal Way; there are a number of spaces that are currently vacant, such as the former theater. Currently,
the neighborhood is safe for children and their bikes, but that would change with commercial zoning, She
commented that the neighborhood thought the Planning Commission decision/recommendation was a "done
deal" and didn't realize there would be further meetings on the matter.
The LUTC would like to see a comparison of the proposed FC zone with comparable zones in other cities. They would like
to see a comparison of the proposed FC zone with the City's Community Business (Be) zone. The LUTC asked staff to
research whether to allow pole signs in the FC zone and whether a 25-foot tall sign would be tall enough to be visible from
the freeway. The LUTC m/s/c to recommend the City Council adopt the PM Subarea Plan with the Davis, North Lake, and
Rabie Site-Specific Requests as modified, and to table the Jackson Site-Specific Request to the next LUTC meeting.
H. Proposed New Freeway Commercial Zone - This is a component of the 2003 Comprehensive Plan Amendments,
The issue was tabled to the next LUTC meeting.
I. Quadrant Site-Specific Request - This is a component of the 2003 Comprehensive Plan Amendments. This is a
request to delete the planned extension of Weyerhaeuser Way South, north of South 320th Street, as shown on Map 111-27B
(2003-2020 Regional Capital Improvement Plan [CIP)) from the Federal Way Comprehensive Plan (FWCP) and to delete
this project from FWCP Table 111-19 (Regional CIP Project List). It was m/s/w to approve the staff recommendation in order
to allow public testimony.
K:\lUTC Agendas and Summaries 2004\May 3, 2004, LUTC Minutes.doc
Cindy Cope - Why should 32nd Avenue South be extended to 316th? The area is residential and getting in and
out via 316th works fine. Extending the road would bring in traffic that has no reason to enter the area and
would open us up to crime.
Mr. Perez commented that the FWCP supports through roads because Federal Way does not have enough. There is a
planned extension of 31ih over 1-5 and west to Auburn, and the extension for 32nd would be needed for a link (this will not
happen for many years, but it is planned in the FWCP). This is a long-term project. The LUTC m/s/c to recommend that the
full Council accept the Planning Commission's recommendation and adopt an ordinance ap~roving the request by
Quadrant to delete the planned extension of Weyerhaeuser Way South, north of South 320t Street, shown on FWCP Map
111-278 (2003-2020 Regional CIP); delete the project from FWCP Table 111-19 (Regional CIP Project List), replacing it with
32nd Avenue South; and amend (per the Planning Commission Recommendation) FWCP Maps 111-5, 111-6, and 111-278 as
set forth in the April 27, 2004, LUTC Memorandum,
E. Amendments to Countywide Planning Policies to Designate Downtown Auburn as an Urban Center - The
LUTC m/s/c the staff recommendation to move forward to the full Council approval of the amendment to the Countywide
Planning Policies to designate Downtown Auburn as an Urban Center,
C. Trip Reduction Performance Incentive for Federal Way Employers - Washington State's Commute Trip Reduction
(CTR) Law is intended to improve air quality and reduce fuel consumption and traffic congestion through employer-based
programs encouraging the use of alternatives to single occupant vehicles (SOV) for the commute trip, The trip reduction
performance incentive program is a six-month demonstration program designed to reduce commute traffic within the City
by converting SOV commuters to other commuting options, The program introduces trip-reduction strategies to smaller
employers not affected by the CTR program. Staff proposes to use the Traffic Division's operating fund to support this
project. The LUCT m/s/c placing the following project recommendations on the May 18, 2004, City Council Consent
Agenda: 1) authorize staff to proceed with the Trip Reduction Performance Incentive Program for Federal Way Employers;
2) authorize staff to incorporate the incentive program into the next CTR contract with King County Metro (the existing
contract will expire June 30, 2004); and 3) authorize staff to use the Traffic Division's operating funds of $5,050 as a match
toward the project.
A. Potential Annexation Area Expansion - The City Council requested staff to look into the feasibility of annexing an
unincorporated area in Pierce County that is located within Tacoma's Urban Growth Area (UGA), The LUTC m/s/c directing
staff to initiate a Pierce County Comprehensive Plan Amendment and to gather data and acquire Geographic Information
Systems layers,

Follow-up Research for Amendments to the Federal Way Comprehensive Plan
(FWCP) and Federal Way City Code (FWCC) Chapter 22 to add a Freeway
Commercial Zoning Classification (File No. 04-100812-00-UP)
MEETING DATE:
May 24, 2004
I.
BACKGROUND
This is a follow-up to the May 3,2004, Land Use/Transportation Committee (LUTe) meeting dunng
which a proposed new commercial zoning designation, Freeway Commercial Zone (FC), was
discussed. During this meeting, staff presented the Planning Commission's recommendation, which
was to adopt the proposed FC zoning designation and amend the FWCP and FWCC as necessary to
implement the new zone, The LUTC discussed the proposed FC zoning classification and requested
staff to research and respond to the following:
.
Compare the proposed FC zone allowable uses and development standards with those of
other jurisdictions that allow freeway commercial uses.
Compare the proposed FC zone allowable uses and development standards with those of the
Community Business (BC) zone,
Research whether to allow pole signs in the Freeway Commercial zone and whether a 25 foot
tall sign would be tall enough to be visible from the freeway.
.
.
II.
DISCUSSION OF RESEARCH FINDINGS
A.
How does the proposed FC development uses and standards compare with those of
similarly zoned areas in other jurisdictions'?
Staff compared the codes for comparable freeway oriented zones for Renton, Olympia, Fife,
Bellíngham, Issaquah, Burien, and Sumner relative, to the proposed FC zone, A summary of the
permitted uses and development standards for these cities is shown in Table I. The following
highlíghts how the development standards compare to each other.
1.
Permitted Uses: Most communities allowed a wider range of uses than the FC zone as
presently drafted, The range of allowable uses in other cities was more similar to Federal
Way's BC zonc than the proposed FC zone, Please refer to Table I for a complete list of
allowable uses in the Federal Way BC zone. Renton, Olympia, and Issaquah allow uses
similar to Federal Way's BC zone. Comparable zones reviewed in Bellingham and Burien
are more similar to Federal Way's Business Park (BP) zone in that the focus is more on
business park type uses.
2.
Minimum Lot Size: In the proposed FC zone, there would be no minimum lot size except
for a five-acre minimum if the proposed use is new vehicle sales. Most of the communities
surveyed have no minimum lot size established for comparable zoning districts. The City of
Burien requires a minimum two-acre site size for application of the special planning area
zone. and a minimum l5-acre site size with a minimum of three dealers for auto sales,
3.
Lot Coverage: Most communities reviewed established a maximum lot coverage ranging
from 65 to 85 percent. The proposed FC zone establishes no maximum lot coverage; it is
determined by application of development standards. (This is consistent with other
commercial zoning districts in Federal Way,)
4.
Maximum Building Height: Maximum building height ranged from 35 to 50 feet for
similar zones. The average hovered around 40 feet. Issaquah has a base maximum of 35
feet, but will allow up to 65 feet under certain conditions, Bellingham listed no height limit.
The proposed FC zone would allow a maximum of 35 feet with up to 55 feet allowed under
certain conditions. The height limit would be 30 feet within 100 feet of a residential zone,
While none of the other communities identified a reduction in height limit for buildings
near a residential zone, the proposed height requirement for the FC zone is consistent with
height regulations for other Federal Way non-residential zones.
5.
Setbacks:
Minimum front yard setbacks ranged from none to 30 feet. The proposed minimum for the
FC zone is 20 feet.
Minimum side yard setbacks ranged from none to 20 feet. The proposed minimum for the
FC zone is five feet.
Minimum rear yard setbacks ranged from none to 20 feet. The proposed minimum for the
FC zone is five feet.
Special Requirements When Adjacent to Residential: Three out of the seven communities
reviewed provide for an increased setback when development is adjacent to a residential
zone. The increased setback requirements ranged from 15 to 50 feet. The proposed FC zone
requires a minimum 20-foot setback from an adjacent residential zone. For new vehicle
sales, the minimum would be 50 feet. Of the cities examined, only Burien requires a 50-
foot setback when abutting an existing residential area,!
I Burien 's setback requirement is enforced through its landscaping requirements.

Landscaping:
Adjacent to Right-of- Way: Most communities reqUIred a 10-foot wide landscape area
adjacent to public right-of-way, Renton and Burien require up to 15 and 25 feet
respectively, depending on the road classification, Burlen had no landscaping requirements
along a property líne abutting a freeway, The proposal for the FC zone is 10 feet of Type III
landscaping, "
Perimeter When not Adjacent to Right-or Way: Some communities did not identify any
perimeter landscaping unless adjacent to a right-of-way or residential area, For those that
did, either five or ten-foot wide landscaped areas were specified, The proposal for the FC
zone is five feet of Type III,
Adjacent to Residential Zone: The range was quite varied with anything from five to 50
feet. Some communities require a combination of plantings with wood or masonry fences
when adjacent to residential. The proposal for the FC zone is 20 feet of Type e
7.
Signs: Staff focused on the comparison on whether or not freestanding pole signs were
allowed and the maximum height allowances,
Renton and Fife allow pole signs up to 40 feet tall. Bellingham allows a maximum height
of 35 feet, except where development is adjacent to 1-5 and then the height is limited to 20
feet. OlympIa, Burien, and Sumner allowances fall 111 to an overall range of 15 to 35 feet.
Issaquah only lísted allowances for monument signs, The proposal for the FC zone is a
maximum of 15 feet if the subject property is above the freeway elevation, and 25 feet
above the elevation of the freeway if the subject property is lower in elevation than the
freeway. Please refer to Table I for comparison of allowable sign area.
8.
Parking: Parking in most communities is determined by use rather than zone. There were
no great differences in how parking requirements were addressed,
9.
Design Review: Most communities, líke Federal Way, require administrative design
review of commercial development. Staff did not review the specifics of the different
programs,
10. Noise, Light, and Glare: Most communities have adopted standard guidelines to address
noise, líght and glare. There were no specific requIrements for development within the
zones that were reviewed, New vehicle sales in the FC zone can potentially have noise
impacts associated with the maintenance shop and outdoor speaker systems, In addition,
based on the locational criteria, FC zones can potentially locate adjacent to residential
areas, As a result, specific language is proposed to prevent noise associated with these uses
from being heard on adjacent residential areas,
'Type III landscaping is described as a "visual buffer," which is intended to provide visual separation of uses from streets and
main arterials and between compatible uses so as to soften the appearance of parklllg areas and buíldlllg elevations.
\ Type I landscaping is described as a "solid screen," which is intended to provide a solid sight barrier to totally separate
IIlcompatlble land uses.

SUMMARY OF COMPARISON WITH OTHER COMMUNITIES
Overall, the proposed standards for the FC zone fall within the range of development standards
reviewed for other communities, The primary differences staff found are as follows:
.
Number o( Uses Allowed: With the exception of Be]lingham and Burien, which focus more
on business park type development, most of the comparab]es reviewed allowed a wider,
range of uses similar to Federal Way's BC zone, but broader than those proposed to be
allowed I!1 the FC zone,
.
Minimum Lot Size: Most communities did not specify a minimum lot size, or if so, it was
minimal. The FC zone would require a minimum five-acre lot size for a vehicle sales use
(otherwise no minimum). Burien was one exception that had more stringent requirements
than Federa] Way for vehicle sales.
.
Minimum Setback From a Residential Area: In the case of new vehicle sales, the proposed
50-foot setback for the FC zone is about double what other communities require (with the
exception of Burien, which also requires 50 feet), However, for all other uses in the FC
zone, the 20-foot setback is similar to the other communities' requirements,
.
Noise, Light, and Glare: No other community that was studied was found to have a noise
requirement similar to that proposed for the FC zone for new vehicle sales,
How do the proposed FC development standards compare with development standards for
the BC zone?
The LUTC was most interested in how the proposed FC zone compares with the existing BC zone.
Tab]e I provides a comparison of the FC and BC zones,
1.
Permitted Uses: All of the uses proposed to be allowed in the FC zone are already allowed
in the BC zone, Although outlet malls are specifically called out as an allowable use in the
FC zone, it would also be allowed in the BC zone as a general retail use,
2.
Minimum Lot Size: The BC zone does not have a minimum lot size. The proposal for the
FC zone is no minimum lot size except for new vehicle sales, which would require a five-
acre mmm1Llm,
3.
Lot Coverage: All the commercia] zones, including the BC zone, do not have maximum
lot coverage, Lot coverage is determined by application of the other development
regulations,
4.
Maximum Height: The height limit of 55 feet for the FC zone is consistent with what is
currently allowed in the BC zone,
5.
Setbacks: Uses in the BC zone that are adjacent to a residential zone must maintain a
minimum 20-foot setback. The FC zone proposes a minimum 20-foot setback from
residential areas unless the development is new vehicle sales and then it is 50 feet.

c.
The proposed minimum front, side and rear setbacks for the FC zone is 20 feet, five feet,
and five feet, respectively, Setbacks established in the BC zone depend on the specific usc
and rangcs from none to 50 feet, depending on the usc. For example, in the BC zonc, a 40-
foot mInimum front yard setback is required for vehicle service stations.
6.
Landscaping: The proposed landscaping along a nght-of-way withIn the FC zone is 10
feet of Typc III. The existing requirement for the BC zone is five feet of Type III. The
requirement along a property line abutting a residential zone is 20 feet of Type I for the F('
zonc and 15 feet of Type I for the BC zonc, Perimeter landscapIng for other lot Ime
conditions is five feet of Type III landscaping for the both the proposed FC zone, as well as
the existIng BC zone,
7.
Signs: The BC zone allows for a pole sign up to 25 feet tall, with a maximum sign face of
400 square feet (200 square feet per side) under specific circumstances, If these
circumstances cannot be met, then a medium profile sign is allowed up to 12 feet in height
with a maximum sign face of 80 square feet (40 square feet per side) for single-tenant sites
and 128 square feet (64 square feet per side) for multi-tenant sites. The proposal for the FC
zone is to allow one highway profile sign (pole sign) per subject property. This sign could
be a maximum of 15 feet if the subject property is above the freeway elevation, and 25 feet
above the elevation of the freeway if the subject property is lower in elevation than the
freeway. The Freeway Commercial sign could have a maximum sign area of 600 square
feet (maximum of 300 square feet per face) if the elevation of the site is below the elevation
of the freeway, and 400 square feet (maximum of 200 square feet per face) if the elevation
of the site is above the elevation of the freeway.
8.
Parking: Parking requirements are determined by use rather than zone and there is no
difference between the proposed FC and the existing zone.
9.
Design Review: All non-residential development must comply with the City's design
review requirements regardless of zone.
10. Noise, Light, and Glare: The BC zone has a noise requirement for veterinary clinics that
is similar to that proposed for new vehicle sales and related uses in the FC zone, The BP
and OP zones state that truck maneuvering and similar noise generating activities be
located as far away from adjacent residential zones as possible, The BC zone requires that
for auto body, painting, service, and repair uses, ".. .building layout and design mitigate
impact of dust, fumes, noise, glare, odor, or any other discharge on neighboring uses and
natural systems...." The BC zone states that the hours of operation of commercial uses may
be limited to reduce impacts on residential areas, The proposed noise-related requirements
for the FC zone l11corporate a combination of language from all of these zones,
Research whether to allow pole signs in the Freeway Commercial zone and whether a 2S
foot tall sign would be tall enough to be visible from the freeway
I.
Sign Height: As discussed above in Section ILB.7 above, the proposal for the FC zone is
to allow one highway profile sign (pole sign) per subject property, This sign could be a
maximum of 15 feet if the subject property is above the freeway elevation, and 25 feet
above the elevation of the freeway if the subject property is lower 111 elevation than the

freeway. The FC sign could have a maximum sign area of 600 square feet (maximum of
300 square feet per face) if the elevation of the site is below the elevation of the freeway,
and 400 square feet (maximum of200 square feet per face) if the elevation of the site is
above the elevation of the freeway, The following pictures show a freeway-oriented sign in
Bellingham that is approximately 50 to 60 feet tall. The Bellingham sign code allows the
sign to have a total sign are of 600 square feet (300 square feet per sign face) and be 20 feet
taller than the freeway elevation at the closest driving lane. Therefore, a sign that exceeds
the freeway elevation by 25 feet would be visible from the freeway.

2.
Whether Pole Signs Should be Allowed: When preparing the proposed Freeway
Commercial sign provisions, staff researched a number of other cities' freeway-oriented
sign codes and chose the City of Bellingham's sign ordinance as a model. Bellingham
allows signs to be visible from the freeway and allows the maximum sign height to be
based off the elevation of the freeway.
The original language proposed for the FC zone sign provisions required the design of the
posts for a pole sign to be compatible with the architecture of the primary structure on the
site. This is similar to existing language for freestanding signs in the "High Profile"
category, which allows 25-foot tall pole signs. In the "High Profile" category, the base must
be designed to complement the architecture of the primary structures on site or to use some
kind of textured material.
However, after meeting with sign contractors to discuss the new FC sign provisions, this
language was taken out due to the response we received regarding this requirement. Sign

contractors commented that the base would have to be custom designed, which is not a
problem for a 25-foot pole sign, because the base itself is usually 10 feet tall or less.
However, the freeway commercial signs could potentially be as tall as 50 to 70 feet due to
the topography of the land adjacent to the freeway, As a result the base for a freeway
commercial sign could be 50 feet or taller. In this circumstance, the base would have to be
pre-textured and custom designed into various sections just to complete the installation,
Special engineering would be required to complete a step down for the wind load, Such a
requirement would warrant a significant cost to the client, as well as pose significant
maintenance challenges, since a boom truck would be required, After these discussions, it
was decided to allow pole signs without the requirement for architectural compatibility for
freeway commercial signs,
During the May 3,2004 meeting, some members of the LUTC voiced a concern about
allowing pole signs in the FC zone and asked staff to look at some of the signs in Fife. As a
result of this research, and as shown in the following pictures, it appears that 40-foot tall
signs can be designed in such a way to be architecturally compatible with the primary
structure on the site.
Both of the signs are located along 1-5 in Fife. They are 40-feet tall and 250 square
feet per sign face.
Based on the research, staff proposes to add similar language that currently exists in the
design criteria for sign bases. Please refer to Page 3 of Exhibit A (shown as double
underlined), In addition, staff proposes to add a cap of 60 feet for the height of pole signs.
As currently drafted, there is no cap on the height for the FC (pole) signs. Consequently,
the Costco site, which is the lowest known elevation at 62 feet below the freeway elevation
at the closest driving lane, could have an 87-foot tall sign, However, there are other higher
elevations on the Costco site (31 feet below the freeway elevation), which could
accommodate a pole sign, This would result in a 56-foot tall sign. Please refer to Page 3 of
Exhibit A (shown as double underlined) for the proposed new language capping the
maximum sign height at 60 feet.

RELATIONSHIP TO OTHER lAND USE CHAPTERS
2.2
The land use concept set forth in this chapter is consistent with all FWCP chapters.
Internal consistency among the chapters of the FWCP translates into coordinated growth
and an efficient use of limited resources. Below is a brief discussion of how the Land Use
chapter relates to the other chapters of the FWCP.
Economic Development
Federal Way's economy is disproportionately divided. Based on PSRC's 2000 Covered
Estimates by jurisdiction, retail and service industries compose more than 70 percent of
Federal Way's employment base. Covered estimates are jobs that are covered by
unemployment insurance. Dependence on retail trade stems primarily from the City's
evolution into a regional shopping destination for South King County and northeast Pierce
County. Increased regional competition from other retail areas, such as Tukwila and the
Auburn SuperMall, may impact the City's ability to capture future retail dollars. To
improve Federal Way's economic outlook, the economic development strategy is to
promote a more diverse economy. A diversified economy should achieve a better balance
between jobs and housing and supports the City's qualityoflife.
In conjunction with the Economic Development chapter, this Land Use chapter promotes
the following:
.
A City Center composed of mid-rise office buildings, mixed-use retail, and
housing.
.
Community Business and Business Park development in the South 348d, Street
area.
.
Continued development of West Campus.
.
Continued development of East Campus (Weyerhaeuser Corporate and Office
Park properties).
.
Redevelopment and development of the SR-99 corridor into an area of quality
commercial and mixed use development.
.
Continued use of design standards for non-singleJamily areas.
.
Freeway commercial develoRment focusing on attracting and caRturing those
retail dollars Rresently being lost to other communitics and complementing
existing retail uses in the community.

EXHIBIT_-J .,
PAGE-3JF~
The land use map designations support development necessary to achieve the above (see
the Comprehensive Plan Designations Map II-I). A complete discussion of economic
development is set forth in the Economic Development chapter.
Capital Facilities
Capital facilities provided by the City include: transportation and streets, parks and open
space, and surface water management.
Infrastructure and Urban Services
The amount and availability of urban services and infrastructure influences the location and
pace of future growth. The City is responsible for the construction and maintenance of
parks and recreation facilities, streets and transportation improvements, and surface water
facilities. Providing for future growth while maintaining existing improvements depends
upon the community's willingness to pay for the construction and financing of new
facilities and the maintenance of existing facilities. As outlined in the Capital Facilities
Plan, new infrastructure and services may be financed by voter-approved bonds, impact
fees, grants, designated capital taxes (real estate excise tax, fuel tax, utility tax), and money
from the City's general fund.
To capitalize on the City's available resources for urban services and infrastructure, this
Land Use chapter recognizes that concentrating growth is far more cost effective than
allowing continued urban sprawl. Concentrating growth also supports the enhancement of
future transit improvements.
Water Availability
Based on reports from the Lakehaven Utility District, the estimated available yield from the
underlying aquifers is 10.1 million gallons per day (MGD, 10-year average based on
average annual rainfall). The District controls which well to use, thus which aquifers are
being pumped from, based on a number of considerations including water levels and
rainfall. In order to reduce detrimental impacts to its groundwater supplies in the recent
past, the District has also augmented its groundwater supplies with wholesale water
purchased from the City of Tacoma through water system interties. In addition, the District
has entered into a long-term agreement with the City of Tacoma and other South King
County utilities to participate in the construction of Tacoma's Second Supply Project (a
second water diversion from the Green River), which will provide additional water supplies
to the region. As a result, the water levels in the aquifers have remained stable, and the
District's water supply capacity will increase to 14.7 MGD on an annual average basis
when Tacoma's Second Supply Project is completed in 2004. Concentrating growth, along
with conservation measures, should help to conserve water.
Water Quality
Maintaining a clean source of water is vital to the health and livability of the City.
Preserving water quality ensures a clean source of drinking water; and, continued health of
the City's streams and lakes. Maintaining water quality is also important for maintaining

City Center Core
The intent of establishing the City Center Core is to create a higher density, mixed-use
designation where office, retail, government uses, and residential uses are concentrated.
Other uses such as cultural/civic facilities, community services, and housing will be highly
encouraged.
City Center Frame
The City Center Frame designation will have a look and feel similar to the Core and will
provide a zone of less dense, mixed-use development physically surrounding a portion of
the City Center Core. Together, they are meant to complement each other to create a
"downtown" area. A more detailed description, along with goals and policies regarding the
City Center Core and Frame, can be found in the City Center chapter.
Community Business
The Community Business designation encompasses two major retail areas of the City. It
covers the "strip" retail areas along SR-99 and the large "bulk" retail area found near the
South 348th Street area, approximately between SR-99 and 1-5. Community Business
allows a large range of uses and is the City's largest retail designation in terms of area.
The Community Business designation generally runs along both sides of SR-99 from
South 272nd to South 348th. A wide range of development types, appearance, ages,
function, and scale can be found along SR-99. Older, single-story developments provide
excellent opportunities for redevelopment.
Due in part to convenient access and available land, the South 348th Street area has
become a preferred location for large bulk retailers such as Eagle Hardware, Home Depot,
and Costco. Due to the size of these facilities, the challenge will be to develop these uses
into well functioning, aesthetically pleasing retail environments.
To create retail areas that are aesthetically and functionally attractive, revised development
standards, applied through Community Business zoning and Community Design
Guidelines, address design quality, mixed-use, and the integration of auto, pedestrian, and
transit circulation. Site design, modulation, and setback requirements are also addressed.
Through regulations in the Community Business land use chart, the size and scale of
hotels, motels, and office uses have been limited in scale so as not to compete with the
City Center.

corridor, exclusive of the City Center, should be designed to integrate auto,
pedestrian, and transit circulation. Integration of public amenities and open
space into retail and office development should also be encouraged.
Encourage auto-oriented large bulk retailers to locate in the South 348th Street
Community Business area.
Freeway Commercial
The Freeway Commercial designation is intended for areas that border the I-5/South 320(11
and I-5/SR 18interchanges with convenient freeway access and visibility. Freeway
Commercial areas are typically large in size (five acres or greater). The range of
commercial land uses pennitted in these areas is limited to uses that are difficult to site in
the city's other commercially designated areas due to their large site size requirements
and/or difficulty in adapting to pedestrian-oriented areas. Freeway Commercial areas are
particularly suitable for automobile sales, home furnishings centers, and related retail and
service uses that require large tracts of land, convenient freeway access and visibility.

Neighborhood Business
There are a dozen various sized nodes of Neighborhood Business located throughout the
City. These nodes are areas that have historically provided retail and/or services to adjacent
residential areas. The FWCP recognizes the importance of finn[y fixed boundaries to
prevent commercial intrusion into adjacent neighborhoods.
Neighborhood Business areas are intended to provide convenient goods (e.g., groceries and
hardware) and services (e.g., dry cleaners, dentist, bank) at a pedestrian and neighborhood
scale close to adjacent residential uses. Deve[opments combining residential and
commercial uses provide a convenient living environment within these nodes. In the future,
attention should be given to design features that enhance the appearance or function of
these areas. Improvements may include sidewalks, open space and street trees, and parking
either on street or oriented away from the street edge. The function of neighborhood
business areas can also be enhanced by safe pedestrian, bicycle, and transit connections to
surrounding neighborhoods.
The need to address expansion or intensification may occur in the future depending on
population growth. Future neighborhood business locations should be carefully chosen
, and sized to meet the needs of adjacent residential areas.

Subarea Plans
Over the years, citizens from various areas of the City have come forth to testify before the
Planning Commission and City Council regarding their neighborhood or business area.
Development of subarea plans can lead to area specific visions and policies. This type of
specific planning, developed with citizen input and direction, can lead to improved
confidence and ownership in the community. Areas where subarea planning should be
considered include: SR-99 Corridor, South 348th Street area, and Twin Lakes

Neighborhood scale retail development keeps pace with population growth and to an
increasing extent, is actommodated within mixed-use buildings in more concentrated
neighborhood villages.
.
Pedestrian-oriented retail development emerges gradually in the redeveloped City
Center.
.
Small amounts of retail use occur on the ground floor of offices, residential buildings,
and parking structures.
.
Neighborhood scale retail development in concentrated neighborhood villages
emerges in response to growth in multiple-family concentrations in the 1-5/SR-99
corridor and new single-family development on the east side of 1-5.
.
Old, outdated strip centers along the SR-99 corridor redevelop as a mix of retail,
office, and dense residential uses.
.
The large truck-stop facility at the intersection of Enchanted Parkway and South
348th Street is redeveloped into a retail or mixed-use commercial center.
.
Freeway oriented commercial development providing for automobile sales, home
furnishings centers, hotels and related retail and service uses are located in areas
bordering the 1-5/SR-18 and 1-5/S 320th St interchanges within areas of appropriate
size and with convenient access and visibility.
Office Development
.
Offices of regional, national, and/or international finns locate in West Campus, East
Campus, and the City Center.
.
Garden, high-rise, and mid-rise office space, and modern light-industrial buildings
increase rapidly in areas with land assembled for business parks and in redeveloped
retail areas.

proposed PWSFs, including antenna and equipment shelters. In proposing a PWSF in a particular
location, the applicant shall analyze the feasibility of locating the proposed PWSF in each of the
higher priority locations and document, to the city's satisfaction, why locating the PWSF in each
higher priority location and/or zone is not being proposed. In order of preference, the prioritized
locations for PWSFs are as follows:
(I) Structures located in the BP A trail. A PWSF may be located on any existing support
structure currently located in the easement upon which are located U.S. Department of Energy/
Bonneville Power Administration C"ßP A") Power Lines regardless of underlying zoning.
(J2002 Code Publishing Co. Page I
EXHIBIT-L.
PAGE~':)E~
(2) Existing broadcast, relay and transmission towers. A PWSF may be located on an
existing site or tower where a legal wireless telecommunication facility is currently located
regardless of underlying zoning. If an existing site or tower is located within a one mile radius of
a proposed PWSF location, the applicant shall document why collocation on the existing site or
tower is not being proposed, regardless of whether the existing site or tower is located within the
jurisdi-ction of the city.
(3) Publicly used structures. If the city consents to such location, a PWSF may be located
on existing public facilities within all zoning districts, such as water towers, utility structures, fire
stations, bridges, and other public buildings, provided the public facilities are not located within
public rights-of-way.
(4) Appropriate business, commercial, and city center zoned sites. A PWSF may be
located on private buildings or structures within appropriate business, commercial, and city center
zoning districts. The preferred order of zoning districts for this category of sites is as follows:
BP - Business Park
FC - Freeway Commercial
CP-l - Corporate Park
OP through OP-4 - Office Park

CC-F - City Center Frame
BC - Community Business
(5) Appropriate public rights-of-way. For the purposes of this section, appropriate public
rights-of-way shall be defined as including those public rights-of-way with functional street
classifications of principal arterial, minor arterial, and principal collector. A PWSF may be
located on existing structures in appropriate public rights-of-way. Structures proposed for
location of PWSFs shall be separated by at least 330 linear feet. Within any residential zone,
neighborhood business (BN) zone, or professional office (PO) zone, there shall be no more than
one PWSF located on an existing structure. Location of a PWSF on an existing structure in an
appropriate public right-of-way shall require a right-of-way permit in addition to the required use
process approval.
The preferred order of functional street classifications for this category of sites is as follows:
Principal Arterial
Minor Arterial
Principal Collector
If the PWSF is proposed to be located in an appropriate public right-of-way and the
surrounding uses or zoning are not the same, that portion of the right-of-way with the most
intensive use and/or zoning shall be the preferred location.
If the PWSF is proposed to be located in an appropriate public right-of-way and surrounding
uses or zoning are the same, the preferred location shall be that portion of the right-of-way with
the least adverse visual impacts.
(6) If the applicant demonstrates to the city's satisfaction that it is not technically possible
to site in a prioritized location, the city reserves the right to approve alternative site locations if a
denial would be in violation of the 1996 Telecommunications Act, as determined by the city.

West Branch and Main Stem Lakota Creek Restoration Project - Bid Award
TO:
VIA:
SUBJECT:
BACKGROUND:
Council gave authorization to bid this project on April 6, 2004. Three bids were received and opened on April
26, 2004. The apparent lowest responsive, responsible bidder is Wagner Development, Inc., with a total bid
of $792,511. This is approximately 80% of the engineer's estimate and a cost savings of over $172,000.
Reference checks by staff on the low bidder indicate that this contractor has successfully performed similar
work. As a result, staff believes Wagner Development, Inc. can successfully complete this project to the City's
satisfaction. Therefore, the lowest responsive, responsible bidder is Wagner Development, Inc. in the amount
of $792,511.
The third bidder, C. W. WILLIAMS CONSTRUcnON CO, filed a formal bid protest based on the submittals, or
lack thereof, from the first and second bidders of a conceptual traffic control plan. The claim was that the
first and second bidders should be determined non-responsive due to incomplete submittal of conceptual
traffic control plans at the time of bid opening. SWM staff and legal council have reviewed the bid protest in
conjunction with the bid documents and determined the completeness of a conceptual traffic control plan
submittal was a minor irregularity and as such did not warrant elimination of the apparent low bidder.

City Center AC~:S S\UdY - Stake Holder Selection Approval
TO:
VIA:
SUBJECT:
BACKGROUND: The City Center Access Study is a project study to determine viable access feasibility solutions
to the congested access interchange at S. 320th Street, Interstate 5, and the Federal Way City Center. If a
successful and viable solution is found, Federal Way will proceed in developing an Access Point Decision Report
(APDR) to submit to WSDOT. With City and State approval, the report will go to Federal Highway Administration
(FHWA). An APDR is the initial step required by the FHWA before changing an interstate highway interchange.
The City of Federal Way provided a media campaign to solicit participation for stakeholder team members for the
City Center Access Study. A press release was announced in eight newspapers, a legal notice was published in
the Federal Way Mirror, the City of Federal Way Web site carries a notice of the solicitation, a written article was
placed in the Federal Way Mirror, and a Town Meeting was held on May 28, 2004 to present the project and
solicit participation. Attached is a copy of the attendees at this meeting, also invited to attend were the News
Tribune and Federal Way Mirror.
Staff has received eleven requests and/or inquiries for stakeholder placement, which were scored using the
Council-approved selection process. Of the eleven candidates, nine were recommended for inclusion in the
stakeholder team; one of those nine has instead asked to be placed on a citizen information list. Attached to this
memorandum are the criteria scoring and final ranking sheets.
RECOMMENDATION: Staff requests that the Committee forward the following recommendation to the June 1,
2004 City Council Consent Agenda:
Approval of the eight stakeholders as listed on the attached ranking sheet.

Neighborhood Traffic Safety (NTS) Project - Seventh Avenue SW Corridor
TO:
VIA:
SUBJECT:
BACKGROUND:
Residents in the vicinity of the Seventh Avenue SW corridor between SW 356th Street and SW Campus Drive have
requested the installation of traffic calming devices in that area based on concerns of high traffic speeds and
cut-through traffic. Currently, adopted NTS installation criteria are based on a point system as follows:
Total Injury Average Daily 85th Percentile Speed
Accidents/Year Accidents/Year Traffic (mph in either
Points (5-yr history) (5-yr history)* (2-way total) direction)
0.5 0.3-0.5 0.1 500-1100 26-29
1.0 0.5-0.7 0.2 1101-1700 29.1-32
1.5 0.7-0.9 0.3 1701-2300 32.1-35
2.0 0.9-1.1 0.4 2301-2900 35.1-38
2.5 1.1-1.3 0.5 2901-3500 38.1-41
3.0 More than 1.3 More than 0.5 More than 3500 More than 41
" Note: Fatal collisions will count as two injury collisions
Installation criteria are met if the severity score is equal to or greater than 3.0 points.
A traffic study indicated that the subject location had a total of one property damage accident reported in five
years. The average daily traffic volume was documented at 1,864 vehicles per day; the 85th percentile speed
was reported at 33 mph. The total severity score measures 3.0 points, which meets the 3.0-point minimum to
qualify for the installation of traffic calming devices.
On March 26, 2003 staff conducted a neighborhood meeting to discuss potential traffic calming alternatives that
might be effective in reducing speed within the neighborhood. After discussion between the neighborhood
residents, the Homeowner's Association and staff, and in an effort to mitigate the identified problems in the
neighborhood, a consensus was reached to propose the installatiof) of four speed humps along the Seventh
Avenue corridor.

In accordance with established NTS policies, staff sent ballots to property owners and occupants within 600 feet
of the proposed speed hump locations and also to those with the proposal being on their sole access route. The
following table summarizes the ballot results:.

One of the installation criteria requires a 50% majority approval of the returned ballots. Based on the ballot
results represented in the above table, all locations met the balloting criteria with a 78% average approval rate.
On May 12, 2004 staff conducted a second neighborhood meeting to inform the residents about the balloting
results and the remainder of the process.
The estimated Cost of this project is $10,000; there is adequate funding in the 2004 NTS Program budget to fund
this project.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff requests that the Committee place the following project recommendation on the June 1, 2004 City Council
Consent Agenda:
.
Approve the installation of four speed humps, at a cost of $10,000, along the Seventh Avenue SW
corridor between SW 356th Street and SW Campus Drive.

SR 99 at Sout~3Y3;rd~south 332nd Streets - Median Break
{J /11 rL
VIA:
SUBJECT:
BACKGROUND:
At the April 6, 2004 City Council meeting, the City Council approved a temporary median break on SR 99 at South
333rd Street. Furthermore, Council directed staff to evaluate locating the westerly grid road at South 333rd Street
rather than South 332nd Street. The final location of the grid road will determine the permanency of the median
break at South 333rd Street.
Following this decision, the Federal Way School District (FWSD) provided input to the Council expressing their
preference to locate the westerly grid road at South 332nd Street rather than at South 333rd Street. This
preference is due to their interest in locating a new bus barn facility in the immediate vicinity. The FWSD is
concerned that a future road connection of SR 99 to Ninth Avenue South, and ultimately to First Avenue South,
would bisect their potential site between 13th Avenue South and Ninth Avenue South. The extension of South
333rd Street between 13th Avenue South and Ninth Avenue South would significantly impact the School District's
ability to maximize the use of the property for the potential bus barn facility (see attached Exhibit A).
Due to the potential impact, the FWSD is requesting confirmation from the City Council that if chosen, the
westerly grid road of South 333rd will not bisect their proposed site between 13th Avenue South and Ninth Avenue
South.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff requests that the Committee place the following project recommendation on the June 1, 2004 City Council
Consent Agenda:
Approve the FWSD's request to not bisect their proposed bus barn facility site between 13th Avenue'
South and Ninth Avenue South by a westerly grid road at South 333rd.
