Sarady Long, Senior Transportation Planning Engineer 'J:Z_
SUBJECT: Federal/State Transportation Demand Management Implementation Agreement
BACKGROUND:
The Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) provides technical assistance funding to
the City for developing and implementing the Commute Trip Reduction (CTR) programs as required by
State law. The CTR program requires a two-year agreement with WSDOT from July 1, 2015 through
June 30, 2017. The purpose of the agreement is to allow the State to reimburse the City its proportionate
share of the technical assistance funding. The work performed under this agreement is as described in the
attached EXHIBIT I, Project Scope of Work Commute Trip Reduction (CTR). The City's current CTR
agreement with WSDOT has expired and a new agreement is required to receive funding.
The agreement capped funding allocation to the City at $38,869.00 for the July 1, 2015 through June 30,
2017 biennium. As in the past, due to workload and expertise the City will continue to use the funding
allocation from WSDOT to contract with King County for their CTR support services. Staff will present
this contract to the LUTC and Council committee as a separate agenda item. ·

2015 -2017 Commute Trip Reduction (CTR) Program .Implementation Agreement with
King County
BACKGROUND:
The Washington State's Commute Trip Reduction (CTR) Law requires the City to develop plans and
programs to reduce Single Occupant Vehicle (SOY) and Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT) commuting trips.
The law only applies to major employers with one hundred ( 100) or more full-time employees scheduled
who arrive at a single worksite between 6:00 am to 9:00 am.
Over the last l 6 years, the City has contracted with King County for their CTR support services to
implement the CTR program. The existing agreement with King County has expired and staff proposes
to enter into a new, two-year Professional Services Agreement. The work to be performed under this
agreement is described in the attached Exhibit A -Scope of Work.
The proposed 2015 -2017 CTR implementation Agreement with King County would be fully funded by
the state CTR technical assistance grant. For the July I, 2015 through June 30, 2017 biennium, the state
capped technical assistance funding allocation to the City at $38,869.00. This agreement will be
presented to the LUTC on September 8, 2015 as a separate agenda item. The State CTR grant would be
sufficient to fund the 2015 -2017 Agreement with King County Metro, which is estimated at $33,646.00.
Please see attached Exhibit B for assumptions of the state grant and expenditures.
Staff believes this is a cost-effective way to implement the CTR program, as most cities have a full-time
CTR coordinator.

WSDOT Fiber Agreement Amendment
BACKGROUND:
In 2009, Washington State Department of Transportation initiated a project to share traffic condition data
between the State and local agencies, called "Traffic Busters". The project connects WSDOT with 22
cities and counties in the region, including Federal Way.
The scope of the project within Federal Way capitalizes on existing fiber optic cable installed by both the
City for traffic signal interconnect and citywide WiFi and King County Metro in support of Transit Signal
Priority for the RapidRide Line A Bus Rapid Transit project. The Traffic Busters project eliminated a gap
in our otherwise continuous run of 24 strands of fiber between City Hall and I-5, where it connects to
WSDOT's fiber trunk on I-5 to their Traffic Systems Management Center in Shoreline.
WSDOT funded elimination of this gap with 24 strands, of which 2 are reserved for the purpose of
sharing traffic data under the Traffic Busters program. The City is free to use the remaining 22 strands
however we choose. Preliminarily, these would be used for traffic signal interconnect, Safe City, and
citywide Wi-Fi. WSDOT also provides additional hardware and software in City Hall to provide
functionality.
The term of the existing agreement is for 5-year intervals, and now requires an extension for another 5
years. Other than the extension of the term of the agreement, City contact information is also being
updated.

King County Flood Control District Sub-Regional Opportunity Fund -Authorization
for Submission
BACKGROUND:
The King County Flood Control District (KCFCD) has allocated a portion of the Flood District's levy proceeds
for a Sub-Regional Opportunity Fund. This fund is made available to jurisdictions throughout the KCFCD on a
proportional basis, based on assessed valuation. Eligible activities include flood control and stormwater
improvements, as well as watershed management activities such as habitat conservation. Currently there is
approximately $532, 157 in the allocation for City of Federal Way. Staff recommends submitting an application
for this funding to fund a portion of the Marine Hills Conveyance System Repairs Project, which is one of the
SWM 304CIP projects.
The Marine Hills subdivision was the first target area of Surface Water Management's conditional asset video
inspection program. Video inspections to date have identified several failing or substandard storm drain pipes and
structures. Marine Hills Conveyance System Repair Project is a proactive repair program to maintain the City's
conveyance assets, protect roadways and ensure resident safety. This project includes analyzing the existing
system, designing of the repair or replacement projects, and ClP construction. This project was initially broken
down into two phases to reduce the project size. Phase I is the northern part of the Marine Hills subdivision which
is located on the north side of S 293rd Street, while phase II is the southern part of the Marine Hills subdivision
located on the south side of S 293'd Street. The planning level cost estimate for phase I is $971,535 and is
$814,375 for phase II, with a grand total of$l,785,910.

Isaac Conlen, Planning Manager%-
Ratification of Countywide Planning Policy Regarding School Siting
Background
The city has received a request from King County to review and ratify an amendment to the Countywide
Planning Policies (CPPs). On July 20, 2015, the Metropolitan King County Council adopted Ordinance
18084, which approved and ratified the amendment on behalf of unincorporated King County.
As a reminder, the CPPs are a broad set of mutually agreed upon policies that are required by the Growth
Management Act. The city's Comprehensive Plan must be consistent with the CPPs. The original CPPs
were adopted in the early 90s. Periodic amendments or new policies are proposed as necessary to address
regional issues.
Amendments to the CPPs become effective when ratified by at least 30 percent of the city and county
governments representing 70 percent of the population of King County. A city is deemed to have ratified
the amendments if it either sends a letter in support of the amendments or does nothing. If a city opposes
the amendments, it must take legislative action within 90 days of adoption by King County. The 90-day
deadline for responding on this proposed amendment is October 31, 2015.
Summary of Amendments to the CPPs
Ordinance 18084 adopts and ratifies the following motion:
Motion 15-1
PF-19A Plan, through a cooperative process between jurisdictions and school districts, that
public school facilities are available, to meet the needs of existing and projected residential
development consistent with adopted comprehensive plan policies and growth forecasts.
Cooperatively work with each school district located within the jurisdiction 's
boundaries to evaluate the school district's ability to site school facilities necessary
to meet the school district's identified student capacity needs. Use school district
capacity and enrollment data and the growth forecasts and development data of each
jurisdiction located within the school district's service boundaries. By January 2016

Land Use/Transportation Committee
Ratification of Countywide Planning Policy Regarding School Siting
Page2
September 3, 2015
and every two years thereafter, determine if there is development capacity and the
supporting infrastructure to site the needed school facilities. If not, cooperatively
prepare a strategy to address the capacity shortfall. Potential strategies may include:
• Shared public facilities such as play fields, parking areas and access drives.
• School acquisition or lease of appropriate public lands.
• Regulatory changes such as allowing schools to locate In additional zones or
revised development standards.
• School design standards that reduce land requirements (such as multi-story
structures or reduced footprint) while still meeting programmatic needs.
In 2017, and every two years thereafter, King County shall report to the GMPC on whether the
goals of this policy are being met. The GMPC shall identifj; corrective actions as necessary to
implement this policy.
Discussion
The new policy requires the city to work collaboratively with Federal Public Schools (FWPS) to plan for
adequate capacity for new school facilities. If it is determined there are barriers to the siting of new school
facilities the policy identifies some strategies to address the shortcoming.
We are in the process of coordinating a meeting to discuss this issue with Federal Way Public Schools.
The city's zoning code is inclusive when it comes to school siting-allowed in all zones except the
Commercial Enterprise (CE) zone. For that reason, it is unlikely that our zoning provisions act as a barrier
to siting of school facilities. That being said, the overall policy of working directly with the school district
on their facility planning needs makes sense.
The LUTC has three options:
1. Recommend the Mayor write a letter in support of the new CPP to King County, which would
have the effect of ratification.
2. Recommend the City Council do nothing, which also is considered to be ratification.
3. Recommend the City Council adopt a resolution opposing the new CPP.
Mayor Recommendation
The Mayor recommends Option 1; write a letter in support of the amendment to King County.
Planning Commission Recommendation

MEMORANDUM
Community Development Department
Subject: Ratification of Countywide Planning Policy Amendment
...
I. BACKGROUND
The city has received a request from Kil.lg County to review and ratify an amendment to the
Countywide Planning Policies (CPPs) (Exhibit 1). On July 20, 2015, the Metropoiitan King County
Council adopted Ordinance 18084, which approved and ratified the amendment on behalf of ·
unincorporated King County. Amendments to the CPPs become effective when ratified by at least
30 percent of the city and county governments representing 70 percent of the population of King
County. A city is deemed to have ratified the amendments if it either sends a letter in support of the
amendments or does nothing. If a city opposes the amendments, it must take legislative action
within 90 days of adoption by King County. The 90-day deadline for responding on this proposed
amendment is October 31, 2015.
II. SUMMARY OF AMENDMENTS TO THE CPPs
Ordinance 18084 adopts and ratifies the following motion, approved by the Growth Management
Planning Council (GMPC):
Motion 15-1 (Approved April 22, 2015)
PF-19A Plan, through a cooperative process between jurisdictions and school districts , that
public school facilities are available, to meet the needs of existing and projected residential
d evelopment consistent with adopted comprehensiv e plan policies and growth forecasts
Cooperatively work with each school district located within the jurisdiction 's
boundaries to evaluate the school district's ability to site school facilities necessary
to meet the school district's identified student capacity needs. Use school district
capacity and enrollment data and the growth forecasts and development data of each
jurisdiction located within the school district's service boundaries. By January 2016
and every two years thereafter, determine if there is development capacity and the
supporting irifrastructure to site the needed school facilities. If not, cooperatively
prepare a strategy to address the capacity shorifall. Potential strategies may include :
K:\Countywide Planning Policies\2015 CPPW's\School Amendment Page I of2
60
• Shared public facilities such as play fields, parking areas and access drives
• School acquisition or lease of appropriate public lands
• Regulatory changes such as allowing schools to locate in additional zones
or revised development standards
• School design standards that reduce land requirements (such as multi-story
structures or reduced footprint) while still meeting programmatic needs
In 2017, and every two years thereafter, King County shall report to the GMPC on whether the
goals of this policy are being met. The GMPC shall identify corrective actions as necessary to
implement this policy.
III. DISCUSSION
The amendment requires the city to work collaboratively with Federal Public Schools (FWPS) to
plan for adequate capacity for new school facilities.
We are in the process of coordinating a meeting to discuss this issue with FWPS, The city's zoning
code is inclusive when it comes to school siting-allowed in all zones except the Commercial
Enterprise (CE). For that reason, it is unlikely that our zoning provisions act as a barrier to siting of
school facilities.
Tlie overall policy of working directly with the school district on their facility planning needs
makes sense.
IV. PLANNING COMMISSION OPTIONS
The Planning Commission has the following options:
1. Recommend the City Council do nothing.
2. Recommend the Mayor/City Council write a letter in support of the amendment.
3. Recommend the City Council adopt a resolution opposing the amendment
Options 1 and 2 are deemed to be ratification of the amendment and Option 3 is non-ratification.
V. MAYOR RECOMMENDATION
The Mayor recommends Option 2; write a letter in support of the amendment.

Public school facilities to meet the needs of growing communities are an essential part
of the public infrastructure. Coordination between each jurisdiction's land use plan and
regulations and their respective school district[sl facility needs are essential for public
school capacity needs to be met. The following poficy applies countywide and requires
engagement between·each scho0l district and each city that is served by the school 7
district. the policy also applies to King ccunty as a jurisdiction for areas of .
unincomorated King <Zounty that are within a sch0ol district's service boundary. The
pglicy initiates a periodic procedure to identify if there are individual school district
siting issues::an.d-if so, a process 'for the scho.ol district and jurisdiction· to ceoperatively

A proposed ordinance adopting and ratifying Growth Management Planning Council
Motion 15-1, which recommends adding a new C.ountywide Planning Policy regarding
planning for school facilities in King County. ·
SUMMARY,
Proposed Ordinance 2015-0231 would amend the King County Countywlde Planning
Policies (CPPs) tG> state that public school facilities are essential in meeting the needs of
growing communities and · that it is,)mportant to coo.rdinate on land use and facility
planning. A new CPP.w_ould also be adqe:d,. PF-19A, Vl(hich would requir~ collaborative.
planning .between school districts and. Lo.~a.1 jurisc;Hction~: regarding school facility needs.
This process would include consideration of cooperative strategies to address any
facility capacity and siting, shortfalls'. The policy would also require ,periodic review of
whether the goals of the · policy are being met, and calls for corrective actions should
they be necessary.
I
If adopted, all local jurisdictions, incluqing-King County, would be required to collaborate
on I.and L1Se and facility planning with the sch_ool district(s) within its boundaries. The
County would also be required _ to report back to the Growth Management Planning
Council (GMPC) on behalf of the school districts and lqcal j urisdictions on the
effectiveness of the cooperative process in meeting the policy goals . According to
Executive staff, this coordinated planning and reporting would be achieved within
existing County resources .
BACKGROUND
The GMPC is a formal booy comprised of elected officials from King County, Seattle,
Bellevue , other cities and towns in King County, and special purpose districts. The
GMPC was created in 1992 by interlocal agreement 1 in response to a provision in the
Washington State Growth Management Act (GMA) requiring cities and counties to work
together to adopt CPPs.2 Under the GMA , the CPPs serve as the framework for each
1 Motion 8733
2 RCW 36.?0A.210
68
local jurisdiction's comprehensive plan, which ensures countywide consistency with
respect to land use planning efforts .
As provided for in the interlocal agreement, the GMPC developed and recommended
the original CPPs, which were adopted by the King County Council 3 and ratified by the
cities in 1992. Subsequent amendments to the CPPs follow the same adoption
process, which is now outlined in CPP G-1 4 and includes: recommendation by the
GMPC, adoption by the King County Council , and ratification by the cities .
Amendments to the CF?Ps become effective when ratified by ordinance or resolution by
at least 30 percent of the city and county governments representing at least 70 per~ent
of the population of King County . A city shall be deemed to have ratified an amendment
' .
to the CPPs unless the city disapproves it by legislative action within 90 days of
adoption by King County .
ANALYSIS
G MPC Motion 15-1
Proposed Ordinance 2015-'0231 would adopt and ratify GMPC Motion 15-1, which
recommends adding a new CPP regarding plahriing for school facilitie$ in King County.
If adopted, the CPPs would be amended to state that public school facilities are
essential in meeting the need$ of growing communities and that it is impo'rtant to
coordinate on land use and facility planning. A new policy would also be added, PF-
19A, which would require collaborative planning between school districts and local
jurisdictions regarding school facility needs. This process would intlude consideration of
cooperative strategies5 to address' any tacmty capacity and siting shortfalts . The policy
would also require periodic review of whether 'fh'e gears of the policy are be~ng met, and
calls for corrective 'actions should they be neoessary.· · 1
PF-19A is intended to facilitate implemeritatio'ri df school' siting CPPs that were adopted
in 2012,6 which were created as a result of recommendatrons from the GMPC's School
Siting Task Force.7 These 2012 policies, PF-18 and PF-19, prohibit schools serving
primarily urban populations from being located in the rural area and generally require
schools serving rural populations to be located in neighboring cities and rural towns.8
The coordination called for in PF -19A was also a recommendation from the Task Force,
and its proposed languag'e was drafted in collaboration · with representatives from the
school districts, cities, and county.

•
If adopted, PF-19A would apply to the cities and school districts in King County, as well
as the County itself as a local jurisdiction. As a result, the County would be required to
coordinate land use and facility planning with the school districts that have populations
within unincorporated areas of King County. Additionally, starting in 2017 and every two
years thereafter, the County would be required to report back to the GMPC on behalf of
the school districts and local jurisdictions on the effectiveness of the cooperative
process in meeting the policy goals. Executive staff have noted that this increased
workload for County staff would be able to be achieved within existing resources, which
is reflected in the fiscal note attached to the legislation.
GMPC action
On April 22, 2015, the GMPC adopted Motion 15-1, which is a non-binding
recommendation to the County Council to adopt PF-19A. Consistent with CPP adoption
requirements, Proposed Ordinance 2015-0231 forwards this GMPC recommendation to
the County Council for consideration and possible approval. If adopted by the Council,
the ordinance would ratify the change on behalf of the population of unincorporated King
County, and would begin the ratification process by the Cities.
There is no deadline for Council action on the proposed CPP amendment; however,
both the school districts and the local jurisdictions are eager to begin implementation of
the proposed policy given the time that has passed since adoption of the school siting
policies in 2012.

This letter transmits an ordinance that will enable King County to amend the King County
Countywide Planning Policies (CPPs) to establish a plan for coordination between school
districts and the jurisdictions within their boundaries, as recommended by tjie Growth
Management Planning Council (GMPC).
This ordinance transinits GMPC Motion 15-1 that was overwhelmingly approved by the
GMPC on April 22, 2015. The ordinance adopts and ratifies the GMPC motion on behalf of .
unincorporated King County.
. '
Motion 15-1 adds a new policy to the CPPs that is a direct response to a recommendation of the
School Siting Task Force Report, which is included -as an appendix to the CPPs. The new
policy states that public schools are an essential and integral part of public infrastructure that is
needed to achieve successful growth management plans by all jurisdictions in King County.
Further, this new policy sets up a plan to facilhate collaboration between the jurisdictions and ,
tqe school districts, establishes guidelines for assessing school district capacity needs, and
identifies strategies for resolving capacity issues should they be identified.
This ordinance integrates the goals of the K!ng County Strategic Plan by recognizing the role
of land use planning in shaping environmentally sustainabl~ and economically viable future for
all people in King County. The County's role in the GMPC fosters the ethic of working
together for "One King County" by actively participating in regional organizations and
defining King County's role in regional issues ..
There are no fiscal impacts to King County government as a result of adoption of this
ordinance.
