CITY OF FEDERAL WAY
Planning Commission
DATE: October 1, 1998
TO: CITY COUNCIL
FROM: ROBERT VAUGHAN, CHAIR
SUBJECT: PLANNING COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION - Residential Design
Guidelines
I. BACKGROUND
The Federal Way Comprehensive Plan contains goals and policies that
provide for iesidential design guidelines. In 1996, the City
adopted design guidelines for commercial uses in commercial zones
with the intent of implementing design guidelines for residential
zones and residential uses at a later date.
II. PLANNING COMMISSION PROCESS
The Planning Commission held a public hearing on July 15, and
August 19, 1998. Mark Hinshaw of LMN Architects prepared the staff
report and recommendations. Hinshaw presented design concepts which
the Planning Commission refined.
III. SUMMARY OF AMENDMENTS
The code amendments reviewed by the Commission during this code
revision process included design standards to be applied to
residential uses in commercial zones, multifamily projects in
multifamily zones and commercial and institutional uses in
residential zones. The amendments are written to be consistent with
the existing design guidelines for commercial zones. The desired
goal was to make projects pedestrian oriented, incorporate public
spaces, and to design projects to be compatible with neighborhoods.
The recommendation is a combination of prescriptive and descriptive
guidelines.
IV. PLANNING COMMISSION FINDINGS & RECOMMENDATIONS
The Planning Commission bases its recommendation of adoption of the
proposed amendments to the FWCC relative to the residential design
guidelines on the following:
1. The City's residential areas are an important feature to
the City's character and quality of life; and
1
2. The City of Federal Way adopted design guidelines for
commercial zones in 1996 with the intent of following up with
adoption of guidelines for residential zones and residential
uses; and
3. The proposed amendments are consistent with the
provisions of the Land Use Chapter of the Comprehensive Plan
including the following:
LUG1- Improve the appearance and function of the built
environment.
LUP1- Develop residential design performance standards to
maintain neighborhood character and ensure compatibility
with surrounding uses.
LUP2- Use design and performance standards to achieve a
greater range of housing options in multiple family
designations.
4. The Federal Way SEPA responsible official issued a
Declaration of Nonsignificance on April 28, 1998; and
S. The proposed code amendments would not adversely affect
the public health, safety or welfare.

RECOVE1) E'•)'
City of Federal Way
Planning Commission
Date: July 1, 1998
Applicant: City of Federal Way
Proposed Action: Code Amendments to Chapter 22, Article XIV of Federal Way City
Code (Design Guidelines)
Staff Representative: Mark Hinshaw, FAIR AICP
LMN Architects
Staff Recommendation: Staff recommends that the Planning Commission consider the
analysis and recommendations included in this report as a basis
upon which to develop recommended amendments to the Design
Guidelines section of the City's code for City Council adoption.
I. Introduction
This report describes a number of urban design guidelines that, upon adoption into the City's
land use code, would help shape the quality and character of development in residential and
non-residential areas. The guidelines are intended to:
-- Ensure compatibility between residential and non-residential uses.
-- Ensure compatibility between higher density residential development and
lower density residential development.
-- Ensure the livability of all types of residential development.
-- Promote public safety and security in site and building design..
-- Provide for convenience and accessibility of residents to destinations.
-- Contribute to the visual appeal of the city's neighborhoods, as well as the city
as a whole.
-- Implement the City's Comprehensive Plan
-- Expand upon existing design guidelines to include residential development
-- Achieve a balance between predictability and flexibility
This report describes how these guidelines would relate to other guidelines already in the code,
analyzes the issues, suggests several alternative approaches, and recommends one particular
approach. However, specific code language is not proposed. If the Commission agrees with the
direction of the recommended approach, specific amendments will then be crafted and brought
back for consideration.
II. Background
In 1996, the City adopted a new land use code. Intended to replace a previous interim code,
the new code simplified many provisions and consolidated standards into cross-referenced
charts. The new code also included a set of design guidelines intended to encourage more
desirable forms of commercial development than had been seen. These guidelines have been
applied to numerous development proposals, with markedly better results. Because the city
was experiencing a considerable amount of commercial development, an effort was made to
initially concentrate on commercial areas and eventually extend the use of guidelines to other
uses and areas.
The current guidelines include a wide range of design criteria directed toward site design and
building design. Some guidelines are broad, while others are more detailed. The guidelines
contain illustrations. They also include some statements that use the word "shall," meaning
they are mandatory, and others that use the word "should," meaning strongly recommended.
However, the more suggestive statements reflect city policy; applicants must demonstrate how
they can or cannot achieve the intent of all applicable guidelines.
The City staff applies the guidelines using an administrative process. A report presents an
analysis of a proposal for its compliance with code standards and guidelines and indicates
conditions as necessary.
As a result of several recent projects, it is now apparent that additional design guidelines are
needed to govern several situations. As the community matures, both new development and
redevelopment must respect the character of established neighborhoods and ensure that new,
forms of residential development are safe, comfortable, and attractive.
III. Issues
The current design guidelines do not cover certain situations that are being increasingly found
in various city locations:
Non -Residential Development in Residential Districts
The land use code allows certain types of non-residential uses, such as schools, churches,
senior housing and day care to locate within single family and multiple family districts. In some
instances, recent development of this type has not fully recognized the need to blend in with
surrounding residences. Differences in building bulk and materials, the amount of paved
surfaces, and the intensity of lighting can be abrupt. While some development has carefully
softened its impacts on neighboring uses, others have not been successful. Guidelines would
help staff, in their review of projects, to direct proponents to include appropriate measures to
enhance both site design and building design. Having a set of guidelines "levels the playing
field" by describing clear expectations and providing consistency during review.
Development in Multiple Fancily Districts
Federal Way incorporated after the county had permitted the development of numerous
apartment complexes that are scattered throughout the community. Standards of review were
not extensive and, consequently, a considerable amount of higher density development is
repetitive in design, undistinguished in character, poorly designed, and out of scale with nearby
lower density areas. While much of the land zoned for higher density has already been
developed, there are still areas remaining and some of the earlier projects may be close to being
redeveloped. It is important, therefore, to establish review criteria that will allow staff to work
with applicants in the design of projects.
Multiple Family Development in Non Residential Districts
Increasingly, as the demand for housing grows, apartment and condominiums will be
developed in areas previously considered as commercial. This was anticipated and even
promoted by the City's comprehensive plan as a means of accommodating growth without
altering the character of established neighborhoods. Furthermore, with changing demographics,
such as the aging population, developers will seek out properties that can accommodate
housing to meet demand. Although historically land values in commercial areas were too high
to justify residential development, there are indications that housing may now be a competitive
form of development. design guidelines are useful to ensure that the intent of planning policies
is carried out and that these higher density forms of development are of high quality.
In all of the situations outlined above, there are common concerns. For example, the type and
extent of landscaping can make a huge difference in compatibility and character. The location
and amount of asphalt consuming a site significantly determines it visual impact. The bulk and
scale of buildings can produce either an intrusive presence or one in which different activities
can gracefully coexist. Pedestrian connections between development areas can make a huge
difference to seniors, children and those who use transit. The entire image of the community, in
fact, is affected by the nature of transitions between widely varying land uses. Finally, cities are
increasingly making use of principles known as CPTED or "community policing through
environmental design." These principles suggest ways of preventing unsafe conditions within
neighborhoods and public places so that undesirable activities are discouraged.
IV. Alternatives
The following describes three methods of increasing the number and specificity of review
criteria to address these issues. All of these build upon the existing approach used in the
current design guidelines -- applicable to commercial development -- that have proven to be
both workable and effective.
A. Add Prescriptive Guidelines
This method can produce a high degree of predictability. Guidelines contain quantitative
standards that cannot be waived. Proponents know exactly what is required. There is little
room for interpretation. Such guidelines are useful when certain characteristics are highly
desired; where the city is certain that particular features must be included in all development.
These are also the most legally defensible in that there is no ambiguity.
An example of such as guideline is "All residential development shall include pedestrian
walkways at least 8 feet wide, connecting buildings to the nearest public street." This still
leaves room for some variation in design, such as the precise material used, but it is a clear
specification.
B. Add Descriptive (;Wdelines
This method allows for considerable flexibility, but the wording rarely uses numerical
standards, so words are relied upon to suggest the direction. This involves some amount of
discretionary judgment on the part of the decision -maker. But it does allow for creative
solutions. It is appropriate to use in cases where a wide range of possible designs is acceptable
or desired.
An example of this type of guideline is "The ground levels of principal buildings should
incorporate architectural features, such as courtyards, trellises, seating, and canopies that
encourage and support pedestrian activity." There are many ways to accomplish this; the
reviewer would need to work closely with the applicant to ensure that the intent was met.
C- Add a Mixture of Prescriptive and Descriptive Guidelines
This method offers both some degree of predictability and some degree of flexibility. It would
provide a number of guidelines that are mandatory, relatively specific, and address issues of
primary concern. But there would also be a number of guidelines that would suggest directions
that are strongly suggested. However, these are not mandatory since there may be certain
situations in which the statements are difficult or inappropriate to apply. Even so, the applicant
would need to demonstrate how the intent of the guideline might be met. The City would make
the determination of applicability. All of the guidelines, whether prescriptive or descriptive, are
considered to be important.
The proposed guidelines represent this alternative, ie. a blend of prescriptive and descriptive
standards. The benefit of having both quantitative and qualitative guidelines is that the
fundamental issue of ensuring good design is established, but there is an allowance for creative
variations. Guidelines should not be heavy-handed and dictatorial, but rather should encourage
a development that satisfies both public sector and private sector objectives.
V. Recommendation
The attached chart displays a number of design guidelines applying to site design as well as
building design. Both must be used to achieve a desirable result. The wording of each guideline
is set forth to express the concept; translation into more precise code language may involve
some refinement. Eventually, diagrams will be added to help illustrate the guidelines.
For the purpose of presenting the guidelines, they have been shown in a matrix form, indicating
whether they apply to particular situations. This can allow discussion to focus upon both the
substance of the guidelines and their appropriate application. The recommended applicability of
each guideline is shown, but it expected that further discussion may result in changes. In
addition, many of the statements use the word "shall." Further discussion might result in
changing this to "should" in some cases.
We believe that this array of guidelines will produce development that is significantly more
compatible, livable, and attractive.
Site Design Guidelines
1. Ail significant trees shall be re-
tained within a 20' perimeter
strip around site
2. Landscaped yards shall be pro-
vided between building(s) and
public street(s). Parking lots
should be beside or behind
buildings that front upon
streets.
t
2C9,
3. Parking lots shall be broken up
into rows containing no more
than 10 adjacent stalls, sepa-
rated by planting areas.
4. Pedestrian walkways (min. 6'
wide) shall be provided be-
tween the interior of the project
and the public sidewalk(s).
rKn
5. Lighting fixtures shall not ex-
ceed 20' in height and shall in-
clude cutoff shields.
All principal entries to buildings
shall be highlighted with plaza
or garden areas, containing
planting, lighting, seating, trel-
lises and other features. Such
areas shall be located and de-
signed so that windows over-
look them.
7. Common recreational spaces
should be located and arranged
so that windows overlook
them.*
8. Units on the ground floor shall
have private outdoor spaces ad-
jacent to them so that exterior
portions of the site are con-
trolled by individual house-
holds.*
9. The side of the development
facing any street providing ac-
cess should have fencing no
higher than 30" that allows vis-
ibility into the site.*
Building Design Guidlines
All newbuildings, includingac-
cessory accessory buildings such
as carports and garages, shall
have a roof pitch ranging from
at least 4.12 to a maximum of
12:12.
2. Carports and garages within
front yards should be discour-
aged.
11
. 4, ,
3. The longest dimension, of any
building facade shall not exceed
120 feet. Buildings on the same
site may be connected by cov-
ered pedestrian walkways.
L
120'
4. Buildings should be designed to
have a distinct "base," "middle,"
and "top." The base (typically
the first floor) should contain
the greatest number and rich-
ness of elements such as win-
dows, materials, details, over-
hangs, cornice lines, and ma-
sonry belt courses. The mid sec-
tion, by comparison, may be
simple. (Single -story buildings
have no middle.) The top should
include a distinct roof shape
that is visible from nearby
streets (e.g. pitched, vaulted, or
terraced).
I. a
5. Window openings shculd have
visible trim, either in the form
of actual trim material or
painted detailing that resembles
trim.
6_ Architectural features that re-
inforce a "residential" environ-
ment should be incorporated
into all buildings. These include
entry porches, projecting win-
dow bays, balconies or decks,
individual windows (rather than
strip windows), offsets, and
cascading or stepped roof
forms.

crTY OF
MEMORANDUM
TO: Fedefa ay City Cou
FROM: Nyberg, City Manager
DATE: October 27, 1998
SUBJECT: 1999-2000 Capital Budget Issues
As you know, the City Manager's Proposed 1999-2000 Budget does not contain capital budget
recommendations beyond some projects funded with Surface Water Management (SWM) fees. This does
not reflect a lack of capital facility needs, as there are several unfunded projects included in the City's
Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) and Transportation Improvement Plan (TIP). Rather, it reflects a timing
issue related to the availability of funds for such capital projects.
There are four potential funding sources for capital projects - 1998 General Fund cash carryover (if any),
unspent bond proceeds from the 1995 Street Bond issue, unallocated 1998 Real Estate Excise Tax (BEET)
monies, and unallocated 1997-98 utility tax collections in the amount of $1.3 million. Three of the four
funding sources - the cash carryover and the unspent bond proceeds - will not have accurate dollar
projections until the current accounting year is closed out and the S. 312' Street improvements are closer to
completion. Further, the 1995 Street Bond ordinance requires the appointment of citizen committee before
any unused bond proceeds can be expended. For these reasons, I have chosen to not include a capital
spending plan in the 1999-2000 Budget and to recommend thatthe City Council address capital budget issues
when more accurate figures are available. As the above funding sources can only be used for capital projects,
I was unable to include them in my proposed operating budget.
Attached is a $9.3 million list of projects that are included in the City's CIPMP but are currently not funded.
The projects that I believe have the highest priority are, by category:
Transportation projects that already have significant grants but are short of matching funds to
complete them:
► 23rd Ave. S. (S. 317d' St. to S. 324' St.) $162,200
► SR-99 and S. 330d' St. signalization $225,000
► SW 340' and Hoyt Rd. improvements $33,000
$420,200
2. Parks projects that are designed, under design, or for which the City has made significant
commitments to the public to construct them when funds become available:
► Skate Park $250,000
► Wedgewood Park $50,000
► Celebration Park Maintenance Building $60,000
$360,000
The provision of a grant matching funds so that the City can leverage the use of state, federal, and
other funds. This allows staff to more easily apply for grants that will reduce the impact of CIP and
TIP projects on the City's budget.
In spring of next year, when actual figures / more accurate estimates of capital revenue sources are available,
1 will ask my staff to begin work on a Capital Facilities Strategic Plan. This planning effort will involve City
departments and boards/commissions working to identify a wide range of possible capital facilities - along
with rough estimates of cost and prioritization criteria -for City Council review and approval. Should the
Council desire, this planning process could be made to coincide with the work of a Street Bond citizen
committee.
The final product will be an effective long-term strategy for managing capital issues that takes into account
all of the City's future capital needs, including those highlighted above. Once the plan is complete, the City
Council can make capital funding decisions that are based upon a comprehensive potential revenue package
with more accurate dollar projections.
I look forward to discussing these issues next week during your deliberations on the operating budget.
Again, as the funding sources described in this memorandum are for capital projects only, they cannot be
used for ongoing operations. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.

To The City Council
FROM: Gregory D. Moore, AICP, Director of Community Development Services
Margaret H. Clark, AICP, Senior Planner r"-W—
SUBJECT: 1999 PLANNING COMMISSION WORK PROGRAM AND POTENTIAL
CODE AMENDMENTS
I. BACKGROUND
A list of potential code amendments for 1999 was taken to the Land Use/Transportation
Committee (LUTC) on December 7, 1998. At that time, staff was given preliminary
direction on the prioritization of these code amendments. On January 4, 1999, the code
amendments were taken back to the committee along with a proposed time line for
completion of these amendments.
At the January 4, 1999 meeting, the LUTC further refined the work program and time
line. Following is a description of attached materials.
a) Exhibit 1 — Proposed Time Line for Code Amendments and Other Long Range
Planning Projects for 1999
Exhibit 1 includes Planning Commission, LUTC, and City Council meetings, but
does not identify any staff preparation time. We anticipate using the $50,000
allocated for consultant help in preparing several code amendments. The potential
new code amendments will involve staff from other departments and divisions, such
as the Law Department and Traffic Division. In general, with the exception of the
annual comprehensive plan update, each code amendment is scheduled to take three
months which will include: two meetings of the Planning Commission, one meeting
of the LUTC, and two meetings of the City Council. From experience, we know that
some code amendments will take longer than scheduled, thus impacting the
scheduled time line.

and Potential Code Amendments

Page 2
b) Exhibit 2 — Description of 1998 Code Amendments
Part A.1 of Exhibit 2 lists code amendments that have already gone to the Planning
Commission and are scheduled for the LUTC or City Council in early 1999. Part A.2
includes work items that are not required to go to the Planning Commission, but that
can go directly to the LUTC and City Council, and long range planning tasks
requiring response according to state law. Non -code amendment items, which are not
part of the Planning Commission work program, have been included for your
information because they are also part of the Long Range Division work program.
The second part of Exhibit 2 lists code amendments anticipated to be heard by the
Planning Commission in 1999.
II. REQUEST AND RECOMMENDATION
The Land Use/Transportation Committee recommends approval of the work program as
described in Exhibits I and 2.

EXHIBIT 2
DESCRIPTION OF 1999 CODE AMENDMENTS
January 11, 1999
A. LAND USE ISSUES AND RESOURCE REQUIREMENTS
1. CARRY OVER CODE AMENDMENTS TO BE CONSIDERED BY THE LAND USE/
TRANSPORTATION COMMITTEE (LUTC) AND CITY COUNCIL IN EARLY 1999
a) Formal Process for Yearly Comprehensive Plan Amendments (This went to the
LUTC on January 4, 1999, and will be going back on February 1, 1999.)
Set up a formal process on how to handle yearly requests for comprehensive plan
amendments. This will include how to apply; including key dates and timing of applications.
b) Code Compliance Related Items (This will be going to the LUTC on February 1, 1999.)
i) Address the number of junk cars/storage of vehicles on lots.
ii) Provide Code Compliance Officers authority to issue civil citations.
iii) Address the differences between Federal Way City Code (FWCC), Sections 22-1006
and 10-26 as they relate to hours of heavy equipment operation and associated noise.
c) Sensitive Areas (This will be going back to the LUTC once the stream and wetland
inventory are completed.)
This code amendment is intended to create a wetland classification system to differentiate
between various classes of wetlands, also to allow buffer averaging and to require increased
buffer widths where warranted. The amendment is also intended to review the definitions of
streams relative to artificial water courses and to generally update the city code relative to
recent change in state and federal regulations.
2. OTHER LONG-RANGE PLANNING PROJECTS
a) Height Bonus Program
Adopt guidelines to allow increased height in the City Center (CC) zone if open space or
plazas are provided. This was part of the non-residential code amendments that were never
implemented. These guidelines must go to City Council for approval.
b) Consultant Analysis for Planning in the Potential Annexation Area (PAA)
Provide comprehensive plan designations and zoning for area within the city's potential
annexation area. In 1998, the City Council appropriated $7,000 to determine how much
consulting help would be needed to accomplish this task. We will be hiring a consulting firm
to determine how much consulting help would be required to plan and zone the PAA.
Potential Tasks Include:
i) Update the parcel base for the PAA.
ii) Coordinate with King County on existing development activity within the PAA.
iii) Compare and analyze existing King County comprehensive plan designations and
zoning with potential Federal Way designations and zoning.
iv) Inventory existing land uses within the PAA (can be collected from King County
Assessor's data).
v) Conduct meetings with neighborhood groups and home owners' associations.
vi) Inventory the existing street system (may be available from King County at some
level).
vii) Collect traffic data (may be available from King County at some level).
viii) Traffic modeling based on impact of changes.
1. Expand level of data of existing traffic model within the PAA.
2. Calibrate and run model under existing situation.
3. Run model based on new land use designations.
4. Analyze model results.
ix) Adopt street classification system for the PAA.
x) Once adopted, change the text of the comprehensive plan, update all maps and zoning
code.
c) Changes to FWCC, Chapter 18, Environmental Policy
Incorporate recent changes to state law and make other changes to ensure consistency with
FWCC, Chapter 22, Zoning. An example of a change in response to state law would be the
creation of a planned actions category which allows environmental review earlier in the
planning process (in conjunction with comprehensive plan elements or master plans), with
abbreviated review at the project permit level. Also, address other housekeeping items such
as making changes to bring Chapter 18 into compliance with ESH13 1724.
d) Track and Inventory Buildable Lands
Develop a program to track single family, multifamily, and commercial development, as
well as creation of single family lots on a yearly basis. This process is intended to compare
anticipated growth against actual development over time to determine whether there is
enough suitable land to accommodate expected growth for the 20 year planning period, and
whether urban densities are being achieved.
B. PLANNING COMMISSION SCHEDULE'
1. Adult Entertainment Uses
This will include a review of existing regulations and proposed amendments.
'Depending on the in-house expertise and need for in-house experience, some, all, or portions of each code
amendment may be done by in-house staff or assigned to consultants.
Page -2-
2. 1999 Comprehensive Plan Update
The LUTC is presently reviewing a code amendment to adopt a process for the annual update of
the comprehensive plan. This code amendment proposes a spring update for 1999, ending in the
fall and acceptance of requests in the fall of 1999 for an update in the Year 2000 (please refer to
Section B.I 1 of this description).
3. Transportation Impact Fees
Prepare a Transportation Concurrency Ordinance and/or Traffic Impact Fee Ordinance.
4. Sign Code
The following list of housekeeping amendments to the sign code has been identified (this list will
go back to the LUTC for clarification prior to the start of the code amendment):
a) Pump Topper Signs — The Hearing Examiner recently ruled that signs on top of gas pumps
were allowed, however, there are presently no limits on size or numbers for these signs.
b) Normal Maintenance — The current provisions need clarification on intent and appears to be
overly restrictive.
c) Fifteen Acres Subject Property — Clarification is needed to determine if a site which is a
minimum of 15 acres in size but part of a larger subject property is entitled to its own medium
profile sign and whether it can be separate from the subject property.
d) Clarify that the pole remaining after a sign has been removed also constitutes a sign.
e) Set expiration period for sign permits.
f) Research an amendment to allow A frame signs, not located within the right of way for new
businesses for up to six months.
g) Research an amendment to allow free-standing informational signs for uses such as schools,
churches, and day cares located in residential zones.
h) Clarify whether government signs must obtain a sign permit.
i) Clarify, revise or add certain definitions, e.g., differentiate between a canopy and awning;
define commercial messages, grand opening. Also add criteria for canopy/awning signs.
j) Clarify the following, Exemptions —FWCC, Section 22-1599(c):
i) Address ID's — Does the exemption fall under residential zones or commercial?
ii) Balloons — No definition of display.
iii) Construction Signs —
1. Should we allow advertizing like "We're coming soon..."?
2. Allow a 30 day permit prior to building permit issuance if it is new business with
tenant improvement or building permit?
iv) Directional Signs —
1. Do not have a maximum height or design criteria.
2. The exemption does not match the definition.
v) Fuel Signs —
1. Should 20 percent logos be established on each panel?
2. Businesses would like to combine their fuel sign with their allowed monument
without losing the allowed signage for fuel or for their one monument sign.
vi) Instructional Signs —There is no size limit or type.
vii) Warning Signs —There are no limits on number or size.
Page -3-
k) Permit Requirements, FWCC, Section 22-1599(a) —
i) Fees —
CID's — Clarify whether there should be separate fees for each tenant in order to allow
tracking of a business which needs to have a sticker.
ii) Final Inspections — There is nothing in the code that says they must pass a final
inspection. We can issue an order to pass a final, but the code does not allow for access
to provided at the time of inspection, therefore, structural, electrical, and planning
inspections are limited.
1) Research an amendment to establish guidelines for nonconforming subdivision signs in
rights of way.
m) Research an amendment to define cabinet signs vs. individual channel letters. The sign area
is different for the two distinct types of signs and thus there should be a definition for each.
n) Clarify whether building mounted signs should include all items allowed under code
(FWCC, Section 22-1601[B][1]). There appears to be a conflict as canopy and awning are
listed as building mounted signs in this section, however, this section also allows all building
mounted signs to be electrical and by definition canopy/awning means a non -electrical sign.
o) Clarify whether the definition for instructional or information sign should parallel the criteria
to be set for residential zones. Examples are schools, churches, day cares, etc.
p) Pedestal Sign and Pole Signs — There is an incorrect code reference; change to Section 22-
1601(C) Figures 6 & 7. Also, the word monument has no reference.
q) Sign, sign area, and sign face should be consistent. Definition of sign needs more clarity.
What constitutes one sign vs. two signs. How far apart can they be to be considered one if
individual letters are used together with a cabinet or separately?
r) Research an amendment whether architectural embellishments should be added to
definitions.
s) Roof Sign — A little vague.
t) Clarify wall signs. Wall signs cannot project more than 24" from a wall or building and ca
not have copy of the sides or edges. (What if it is a projecting sign? How far can it project?
What if it is a canopy or awning?)
u) Research an amendment to add definitions and criteria for menu boards.
v) Correct FWCC Section 22-1599 which has subsections (a), (b), and (c), then skips (d), and
has (e), (f) & (g).
w) Prohibited Signs —
i) Vehicle signs need clarity.
ii) Consider adding off -site signs as prohibited, ...unless otherwise specified in FWCC,
Section 22-1599(c)(2)(u) or FWCC, Section 22-1600, Table 1, "Community service
event or civic event." (Off -site sign has definition already.)
x) FWCC, Section 22-1600 Residential Zones Tables 1 & 2:
i) Extend sales/event to 60 days? FWCC, Section 22-1600 Table 1.
ii) Wall Sign Allowances —
1. Not consistent with requiring seven percent.
Clarify whether one wall sign is allowed for each business; can we use FWCC,
Section 22-1602(b) to make that determination?
A variety of sign types are allowed. The maximum number allowed does not
specify whether only one of the choices are allowed or if one of each is allowed.
For example, if pedestal and monument type signs are allowed, does it mean that
one pedestal and one monument would be allowed for each frontage, etc?
Page -4-
iii) Multi family Complex, FWCC, Section 22-1600 Table 2 — Is allowed in an RS zone, but
signs for multi -family complexes in residential zones only allow a two square foot sign.
Change multi -family complexes identification to include RS zones.
iv) Recreation Clubhouse or Area, FWCC, Section 22-1600 Table 2 — One sign is allowed
for each street frontage providing direct vehicle access, yet the location specifies that
there is a five foot setback from the subject property. This means that an entire
subdivision would be allowed a sign at each entrance into the subdivision. (Mar Cheri
wants a swim lessons sign at the entrances to its subdivision.)
v) Allow day cares signs in residential zones with some conditions.
y) Freestanding Signs, FWCC Section 22-1601(a) —
i) High Profile — Tenant directory or kiosk signs do not have design standards set.
Clarification is needed on whether to allow pole signs for these.
ii) Low Profile —
1. Tenant directory or kiosk signs do not have design standards set. Is the intent to
allow pole signs for these?
2. Combined sign package: Clarify what is the correct process to be used.
z) Building Mounted Signs, FWCC, Section 22-1601(B) —
i) Center Identification Signs — Research a code amendment to include the interpretation
which was done for hillside plaza to allow all businesses who have a multi -use or multi -
tenant complex one additional center identification sign per building. If there are no
freestanding signs within the subject property, the center or plaza shall be granted a
maximum of two building mounted center identification signs. The additional sign(s)
shall not exceed seven percent of the exposed building face to which it is attached and
shall not exceed a sign area of 240 square feet, per FWCC Section 22-1601(B) & (Q.
ii) Sign Area Transfer, FWCC Section 22-1601(B)(4) — The last paragraph needs
clarification and also needs to specify whether the seven percent threshold is to be
maintained
aa) Clarify sign area multipliers FWCC, Section 22-1602(C) to specify whether all three criteria
have to be met in order for the sign area be increased by 25 percent.
ab) Research an amendment to add kiosk or tenant directory signs to construction standards.
ac) Landscaping, FWCC Section 22-1602(D) —
i) Clarify the meaning of vegetation as used in this section.
ii) Clarify whether vegetation needs to be a certain percentage of the total area required.
iii) Clarify if a certain percentage is required, within what proximity does it need to be?
ad) Clarify Appeals, FWCC Section 22-1604, including whether fees are required in order to file
an appeal.
ae) Nonconformance —
i) Extension or exemption from amortization FWCC, Section 22-335()9.
1. Are fees to be accessed?
2. Clarify which process should be used. The existing one appears overly restrictive.
ii) Loss of legal nonconforming sign status, FWCC Section 22-335(g). Abandonment or
business cessation FWCC, Section 22-335(g)(3). This section and the definition of
abandoned does not appear to be consistent with the recent amendments to the
nonconformance section.
iii) Sign Alterations —
1. Clarify whether the change to one nonconforming sign should trigger loss to all
nonconforming signs on the site.
Page -5-
2. There is no trigger for a business who wishes to add a sign if they have
nonconforming signs on site. In other words, you can have nonconforming signs on
site and still propose to add a conforming sign without triggering the loss of the
other nonconforming signs.
(af) Simplify requirements for applicants to obtain sign permits by utilizing more fully
information in the existing city sign inventory.
5. Miscellaneous Code Amendments
a) Public Parks —
i) Research an amendment to allow for an increase in the maximum height requirements
for sports field lighting, flag poles, and other structures such as back stops associated
with sports fields. Alternatively, due to the increased height needed for these structures,
a variance from the allowable maximum heights would be necessary.
ii) Research an amendment to the land use chart to provide for a case by case basis (with
guidelines) for landscaping requirements for public parks. This is to provide for
flexibility because parks by their very nature already have significant landscaping.
b) Process —
i) Amend FWCC, Section 22-354. Interpretations to clarify under what situations a
written interpretation versus Process I is appropriate.
ii) Clarify the process to handle appeals of administrative interpretations. Also clarify the
references to appeals of administrative interpretations using Process IV (Hearing
Examiner), i.e., whether this means that appeals of administrative interpretations should
be processed like a Process IV application or whether they should be handled like
appeals of Process IV decisions.
iii) Clarify the differences between the process to handle interpretations vs. inquires.
iv) Research an amendment to allow divisions of parcels in a commercial zone by either
platting or a binding site plan.
v) Clarify the land use process for tenant improvements and minor expansion of buildings.
When the HB 1724 amendments were adopted, the process for tenant improvements
and minor expansion of buildings was inadvertently omitted. In the interim, staff has
addressed this through interpretation.
c) Other Miscellaneous —
i) Research an amendment to exempt recreational vehicles parked within an enclosed
structure from the height and length limits of FWCC, Division II.
ii) Research an amendment to limit the size of residential garages by setting a maximum
size in relationship to the principal structure or as may be regulated by the Uniform
Building Code.
iii) Clarify FWCC, Section 22-723 related to the requirement that there may only be one
gas station at any intersection in the Neighborhood Business (BN) zone and FWCC,
Section 22-754 related to the requirement that there may not be more than two gas
stations at any intersection as these sections apply to gas stations that are part of and
accessory to a convenience store.
iv) Clarify definition of height. The present definition is complicated and difficult to
administer.
v) Research an amendment to the maximum height requirements in order to address the
height of power poles in the rights of ways. Alternatively, a variance from the allowable
maximum heights would be necessary.
Page -6-
vi) Address the differences between FWCC, Sections 22-1425 and Use Zone Charts 22-796
and 22-814 regarding height allowances for above grade parking facilities. FWCC,
Section 22-1425 specifies 135 feet and 100 respectively in the CC-C and CC-F zones,
whereas, Use Zone Charts 22-796 and 22-814 specifies 45 feet and 35 feet respectively.
vii) Incorporate interpretations from the Interpretation Notebook that staff has had to keep
over the years. These are relatively straight forward and are not major policy issues.
viii) Add a provision for canceling incomplete subdivision applications if a substantial
period of time has elapsed without the applicant responding to city requests for
additional information.
ix) Clarify what constitutes vesting of a project, i.e., building permit vs. site plan approval.
x) Research an amendment to site containers for emergency preparedness on school sites.
xi) Research an amendment to allow schools including satellite schools in Business Park
(BP) and Office Park (OP) zones.
xii) Research an amendment to allow expansion of a nonconforming residential use in a
non-residential zone.
xiii) Research an amendment to decrease side yard requirements in existing mobile home
parks in order to allow the siting of larger mobile homes and manufactured homes.
xiv) Research an amendment to the existing Land Surface Modification provisions to
remove any discrepancies between this provision and recent state law changes to the
Forest Practices Act.
d) Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design —
This proposed amendment is a result of training provided to Community Development
Services, Police, and PARCS staff. Examples of ways to reduce crime include the following:
i) Well lit pedestrian, parking, activity, and service areas.
ii) Pedestrian routes without blind corners.
iii) Low fences and see through landscaping.
iv) Building entrances visible from public streets or places.
6. Endangered Species Act (ESA)
Adopt code amendments to bring the FWCC into compliance with the mandates pertaining to
endangered species that are the result of the 1999 legislative session and the ESA Statewide
Salmon Recovery Strategy.
7. Wellhead Protection
Adopt the provisions relating to wellhead protection that comes out of the Lakehaven Utility
District work and/or supplement. The LUTC agreed to put this code amendment on hold until the
Lakehaven Utility District has completed their study.
8. Telecommunications Ordinance
a) How should temporary/mobile towers (cell on wheels) be regulated?
b) Modify definition of a minor facility to match existing technology and clarify under what
conditions they may be collocated on existing structures and buildings.
c) Assess and identify requirements and process for locating telecommunications facilities
within public rights of way.
d) Clarify criteria in FWCC 22-649 for allowing Personal Wireless Service Facilities.
Page-7-
9. Annexation/Development Agreements
a) Clarify the existing process for concomitant agreements to include development agreements.
The Growth Management Act (GMA) provides for the use of development agreements
whereby an applicant and the city may enter into a development agreement, which would
lend certainty to a project by setting out the rules up -front with which a project must comply.
b) Clarify process and specify criteria for annexations in Chapter 19, Article 3, Annexation.
10. Group Homes Type 1
Clarify process for siting Group Homes Type I. Presently, the FWCC is silent as to the locations
or standards for these types of uses.
11.2000 Comprehensive Plan Update
If the code amendment addressing procedures for the Annual Amendment of the Comprehensive
Plan is adopted as proposed, September 30, of each year would be the deadline for accepting
annual requests for amendments to the comprehensive plan. Therefore, the city would be starting
the comprehensive plan amendment process again in the Fall of 1999.

PURPOSE OF REQUEST
CITY OF FEDERAL WAY
REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS
FOR EXECUTIVE SEARCH SERVICES
The City of Federal Way, Washington, ("City") is requesting proposals for the purpose of
acquiring the temporary professional services of a skilled independent executive search
consultant to conduct an executive search that will lead to the selection of a new City
Manager.
Federal Way is a non -charter, council-manager code city with a seven -member City
Council, a Council -elected Mayor, and an appointed City Manager. The current City
Manager has served since 1994 and will retire effective September 30, 1999. The City

consultant will be made on approximately Friday, February 26, 1999.

3. Screening the initial pool of applicants and selecting approximately fifteen
(15) semifinalists using the recruiting specification and applicant

5. Making a site visit to the work place of each finalist to conduct an in-depth
interview of the individual, conduct a detailed background investigation,
and verify references and credentials.
6. Preparing a detailed report to the City Council on each finalist, reviewing
