D. Marine Hills Stormwater Conveyance System Repair Phase II — 85% Design Status November 15, 2016
Report and Authorization to Bid Consent
Mr. Tang noted that since agenda items D, E and F are all related, he will address
them at the same time and ask the policy questions separately at the end. The
Marine Hills project was created to repair deteriorated stormwater pipes and
structures in the Marine Hills subdivision and was divided into two phases. Phase I
used an open cut method to repair seriously damaged pipe sections that the CIPP
(Cured in Place Pipe) method could not be used and was completed this summer.
For Phase II, the new CIPP repair method will be used to make additional repairs
and construction will begin in 2017. The Phase I project came in under budget.
Mr. Tang briefly noted the final tasks remaining, available funding and estimated
expenditures for the Phase II project. He pointed out that in May 2016 Council
authorized staff to submit an application for the King County Flood Control District
Flood Reduction Grant. The grant was recently awarded by King County and staff
plans to use the funds for the Marine Hills Conveyance System Repair project.

G. Grant Funding for Transportation Improvement Projects — Authorization to Accept November 15, 2016
Grant Funding Business
Mr. Perez stated this particular grant is for the project titled 21st Ave S — S 314th St
to S 316th Street, also known as the Grand Staircase. This is a unique situation in
which King County offered a sub -grant through the State Regional Mobility
program. The intent was to improve mode split approaching major transit stops.
The City applied for the grant with King County and received an award of $500k
towards this project. He outlined other funding sources that will also be used.
Committee forwarded Option #1 as presented.

H. New Street Lighting Prioritization Criteria November 15, 2016
Consent
Mr. Perez explained that the Department policy on street lights is that street lights
are installed as part of all new street improvement projects, to address a pattern
of collisions where street lighting may reduce collision frequency of severity or, in
some cases, where neighborhoods provide for the installation and the City will take
over ownership of the maintenance. The current budget for new street lighting is
$8k per year. Council directed staff to develop a plan to provide street lighting on
all city streets. Roughly 3,000 street lights would need to be added in order to meet
this goal and the estimated cost of doing so would be approximately $18M. A
prioritization process needs to be created to allocate funding. Staff discussed the
proposed scoring criteria that would be used to prioritize locations and stated it
could take about a year to complete the analysis on all the road segments.
Discussion continued regarding how new requests would be scored in the
meantime, adding school bus stop locations into the scoring criteria and how the
Lakehaven Utility Franchise Agreement relates to this.
Committee forwarded Option #1 as presented.

I. Ordinance: for the Adoption of the 2016 King County Washington Surface Water November 15, 2016
Design Manual and the 2016 City of Federal Way Addendum to the King County Ordinance
Surface Water Design Manual
Mr. Walsh indicated there are two separate manuals included in the Ordinance for
adoption. City of Federal Way is a Phase II permittee and we rely on our Phase I
permittee, which in our case is King County, to meet design manual requirements.
We can adopt King County, adopt Ecology's manuals or create our own. By code,
we automatically adopt King County's manual so this is mainly a housekeeping item
to update the code to reflect the 2016 manual as opposed to the 2009 manual. A
couple key changes worth pointing out that are driven by the EPA through Ecology
are revised watershed modeling from event based to period based. This means
that instead of looking at one discrete storm with a defined period, it will look at
a broader date range to evaluate the event over a longer duration. Another change
is updates based on studies, research and best available treatment methods. As
the scientific community finds new and better ways to do things, they will get
incorporated. The last one was mainly driven by Ecology for Western Washington
based on recent experiences in which they increased requirements for stormwater
facilities that are located on steep slopes. The second manual is the City of Federal
Way addendum which takes the manual from King County and makes it specific to

Federal Way. The permit requires the City to take references to King County and
change those references to Federal Way. Department of Ecology also requires the
incorporation of Low Impact Development (LID) language into regulatory
documents. The manuals must be adopted by December 31, 2016.
Committee forwarded Option #1 as presented.
