Steel Lake Park to Downtown Trail Project-Bid Award
Ms. Mullen noted this project is located on the south side of S 312th St from the
Annex entrance to 24th Ave S. She outlined the existing conditions and
explained the project will add sidewalk, bike lane, curb and gutter, and planter
strip. Six bids were received and opened on May 17, 2017. The lowest
responsive, responsible bidder is Ceccanti, Inc. with a total bid of $812,598.56.
She summarized the available funding and estimated expenditures noting that
there is a funding shortfall. Staff recommends the transfer of funds from the
Citywide Pedestrian Crossing Improvement Project to the Steel Lake Park to
Downtown Trail Project to balance the project funding. A brief discussion was
held regarding the location of the sidewalk, and the expected completion time
for construction and pedestrian crossing options.
Committee fo,warded Option #1 as presented.
Moved: Assefa-Dawson Seconded: Koppang Passed : 3-0
ORDINANCE: Amendment to FWRC for Historic Preservation
Mr. Van De Weghe presented the proposed historic preservation ordinance that
has been discussed since last year and it was on the Planning Commission's
Work Program which recommends adoption of a historic preservation ordinance
and applying for certified local government (CLG) status. The CLG status is a
state designation which qualifies local governments for certain incentives for
historical preservation including grants from the state preservation office to
owners of designated historic properties as well as technical assistance to local
governments with historic preservation.
There are five required sections of an ordinance in order to qualify for CLG
status. It must create a Historic Preservation Commission, set criteria to
designate historic landmarks, provide a process to nominate historic landmarks
as well as a process to review Certificates of Appropriateness and finally it must
establish a special tax valuation. Based on discussions held by the Planning
Commission and the Committee, there were two options to consider. The first
was for the City to establish its own historic preservation ordinance from scratch
and establish its own historic preservation commission. The second was to
partner with King County through an interlocal agreement to use their existing
historical preservation services. He summarized the benefits and challenges to
both options.
At the public hearing at the last Planning Commission meeting, it was decided
that there are some efficiencies to partnering with King County so that is the
Ordinance that staff has brought forward for the Committee to consider. He
explained what the process and typical applications would look like, and shared
what criteria would be needed to qualify as a landmark.
Brief discussion followed regarding quasi-judicial roles and Chair Celski asked
Mark Orthmann to clarify what that means. Mr . Orthmann explained this to the
Committee.

Discussion continued regarding the city's ability to create its own Historic
Preservation Committee at a later time in the future, grant availability, and the
requirements for working under King County. Also discussed was who has the
final decision making authority for the appointed city representative, meeting
locations, if there's a limit to how many applications can be submitted once the
city gets started and public outreach.
Committee forwarded Option #1 as amended with the addition of a
neighbor notification requirement and staff review for consistency
with the Comprehensive Plan.
Moved: Koppang Seconded: Assefa-Dawson Passed: 3-0
RESOLUTION: 2018-2023 Transportation Improvement Plan
Mr. Perez mentioned the Transportation Improvement Plan (TIP) outlines a
6-year plan for transportation-related capital project. It's required to be
updated annually and required for grant eligibility. He summarized new
prioritization criteria used and the impacts of those criteria. He discussed the
projects that were completed in 2016, projects that were removed from the TIP,
as well as a few projects that were modified. There were several new projects
added to the 2018-2023 TIP and he provided a brief summary of each.
Additional information was shared regarding the City Center Access Phase 1
Environmental project as well as 4ih Ave SW & SW #20th St project. A brief
discussion was held regarding how projects were selected for removal.

2017 Surface Water Management Capital Improvement Program (CIP) Update
Ms. Thurlow provided background information on the SWM Capital
Improvement Program (CIP) noting this program identifies, plans, designs and
constructs water related projects within the City and enables the City to meet
its NPDES permit requirements. She provided a summary of projects that have
been completed, as well as proposed additions, modifications and one that that
is proposed for removal. She indicated that although the proposed changes to
the SWM CIP will result in significant expenditure of funds in 2018, SWM staff
has confirmed that the ending fund balance projection will remain above the
required 17% of SWM revenues to 2021, at which time a rate increase will be
proposed.

F. Presentation of Data Analysis Report for Upper Joe's Creek Watershed Nutrient
Reduction Study
Ms. Thurlow noted the Upper Joe's Creek Watershed Nutrient Reduction Study
was paid for with a freshwater algae program grant awarded to the City in 2015
and provided a map that illustrated the boundaries of Joe's Creek. The general
purpose of the study was to generate credible and valuable surface and
stormwater quality data to identify and reduce external surface and stormwater
sources of nutrients to the Twin Lakes. The project team consisted of City of
Federal Way Surface Water Management, WA Department of Ecology and
Herrera Environmental Consultants, Inc. Ms. Thurlow provided background
information regarding blue-green algae issues on Lake Lorene beginning in
2012 when Twin Lakes Homeowner's Association TLHOA first engages the City.
She explained the possible sources of phosphorus loading that could be going
into Lake Lorene and Lake Jeane. City staff focused on surface and stormwater
runoff factors to try and identify what nutrient sources may be present. She
outlined the nutrients of interest that were sampled under the study, provided
a map that illustrated all sampling and monitoring stations, and provided a
comparison of medians with four similar urban King County streams. She
summarized the conclusions found in the study as well as what steps staff will
be taking now that the study has been completed. A lengthy discussion
continued regarding possible sources of phosphorus loading, other contributing
variables as well as a possible partnering with the City of Tacoma to address
probable contributions from Tacoma to Joe's Creek.
G. Submittal of Transportation Grant Application
Ms. Winkler stated on March 16, 2017, the City experienced a mud slide on
Dash Point Road. City crews with some contractor support completed
emergency repairs and incidental repair to re-open the roadway. Additional
permanent restoration is required to stabilize the roadway slope but cannot be
accomplished until the City receives permits for in-water work. There is a
strong possibility that the City will receive FHWA Emergency Relief (ER) funds
for the emergency and incidental repairs as well as for some of the permanent
repair work. She provided a summary of the estimated project funding
amounts and sources. A brief discussion continued about the temporary work
that was completed and the remaining work to permanently restore the area.
Committee foawarded Option #1 as presented.

H. Sound Transit -City Services Agreement
Mr. Walsh indicated Sound Transit completed the Environmental Impact
Statement (EIS) for the Federal Way Link Extension. Funding of the project was
approved by a ballot measure. With the approved EIS, and approved funding,
the design process is being advanced. He outlined the overall schedule of the
project noting later this year, Sound Transit is completing the Preliminary
Design with their internal consultant team and they will let a design-build
package. It is estimated that late 2018, the project will be bid and the

Green Gables NTS '16-SW 32Vh Way (Hoyt Road SW to 5P' Place SW)
BACKGROUND:
Residents along SW 329th Way between Hoyt Road SW and 51 st Place SW submitted a petition on December
15, 2016 requesting the installation of traffic calming devices to control vehicle speeds and improve pedestrian
safety along SW 329th Way. Traffic studies were conducted in February and March of 2017, and the results are
as follows:
• Roadway Classification : Minor Collector
• Average Daily Traffic (ADT): 1,324
• 85tl' percentile speed: 3 7.1 mph
• Total collisions (last 5 years): 0
• Injury Collisions: 0
Based on the current adopted NTS installation criteria (per table below), SW 3291h Way scored 3.5 total
severity points. This meets the minimum 3.0 severity points to qualify for the installation of traffic
calming devices.

A neighborhood traffic safety meeting was held on April 12, 2017 with 14 attendees signing in. They all
agreed that something needed to be done about speeding on SW 329th Way and developed 4 prioritized
tiers of possible solutions, described below, that would be proposed as budget and engineering judgement
allowed. If approved, the preferred option( s) could be constructed in the summer of 201 7.

1. Mini-Roundabout at 49th Ave SW: A mini-roundabout at 49th Ave SW would be effective at slowing
traffic in both directions, but especially downhill (eastbound) traffic approaching the all-way stop and
improve pedestrian safety around the mailboxes located at the 49th Ave SW intersection.
City staff supports this proposal.
2. Mini-Roundabout at the 47th Ave SW {currently all-way stop-controlled). Replacing the all-way stop
with a mini-roundabout may not have much effect on approach speeds on SW 329th Way, especially if
the central island size needs to be reduced to accommodate school bus turns. As such, there may only
be limited, if any, safety benefit for vehicles and pedestrians with the cost of the roundabout.
City staff does not support this proposal.
3. Speed humps at the bottom of the hill east of 46th Ct SW, or near 48th Ct SW: A speed hump at the
bottom of the hill could be effective, but would increase the chance of vehicle damage and greatly
impact access up the hill during snowy weather. There could also be a noticeable impact to
emergency vehicle response time. A less severe option in both cases would be to install a speed table
which would better accommodate buses, emergency response vehicles, and inclement weather. A
speed hump near 48th Ct SW between the proposed roundabout at 49 111 Ave SW and the all-way stop
at 47 1h Ave SW is unlikely to be effective. In addition, at least one resident near 48 111 Ct SW would be
sensitive to humps due to a medical condition; a speed table would also be preferable to a speed hump
for that resident. City staff supports the Speed Table proposal east of 461h Ct SW.
4. Speed humps west of 49111 Ave SW or Chicanes near 46Lli Ct SW: A speed hump west of 49th Ave SW
would additionally slow the traffic, but would not address the speeding on the hill near 46th Ct SW.
Chicanes may be an effective way to slow traffic on the steepest part of the hill near 46th Ct SW
without significantly impacting emergency response time, but would collect garbage and debris
within the chicane island or between curbs. They would also present difficulties for snow removal
equipment on this important response route and remove a few on-street parking spaces.
City staff does not support this proposal.
Option 1 -One (1) Mini-Roundabout and One (1) Speed Table
This option would install a mini-roundabout at the intersection with 49th Ave SW. The center island of the
roundabout could be landscaped behind a 6-inch curb. A speed table would also be installed east of the
intersection with 46th Ct SW near the bottom of the steepest section of SW 329th Way where the roadway
grade drops below 8%. See the attached map for the proposed location of both devices.
The proposed devices should be effective in reducing speeds and improving vehicular and pedestrian safety.
However, there may be some negative impacts to the neighborhood including inconvenience and perhaps a
slight increase in emergency response time.
Option 2 -No Action
This option would not build any traffic calming devices and the street would remain in its current condition.
Advisory Ballot
In accordance with established NTS policies, City staff sent a total of 194 ballots to property owners and
occupants within 600 feet (measured along the road centerline) of the proposed traffic calming device
locations. As of the writing of this memo, the two-week postmark deadline for returning ballots has not
passed and is incomplete; final ballot results will be shared during the presentation to the Land-Use and
Transportation Committee. The table below summarizes the incomplete ballot results for the 19 ballots
received to-date (10% return rate):

The Traffic Division staff proposal is in accordance with the balloting results in recommending Option 1.
The proposed locations for the mini-roundabout and speed table have been marked on the street. The
proposed package should be effective in reducing speeds on SW 329 th Way between Hoyt Road SW and
51 st Place SW and may reduce cut-through traffic. However, there may be some negative impacts to the
neighborhood including inconvenience, noise, and a slight increase in emergency response time.
The estimated cost of this project is approximately $16,000 which exceeds the $15,000 per neighborhood
per year budget limitation policy. The currently allocated NfS budget is $50,000 per year with $20,000
designated specifically for school NfS and/or school safety related improvements. Currently, only one
other NfS projects is under construction in 2017, at a cost of $12,000, so $38,000 is still available in the
budget for 2017.

At the time of the submittal of the application, the applicant stated that the property had
been for sale for 18 months and there were no potential buyers interested in the
Professional Office (PO) designation. Prospective buyers have indicated an interest in
Neighborhood Business (BN) zoning. In addition, there are other BN-zoned properties
across 21 •1 Place SW and SW 3121h to the northeast.
3. Staff Comments
There are only ten permitted uses in the PO zone--office, schools, day cares,
governmental facilities, public parks, public transit, public utilities, personal wireless
service facilities (PWSFs), churches, and urban agriculture. Of these ten permitted uses,

five are public uses compared to the BN zone which allows all uses permitted in the PO
zone in addition to other uses such as multi-family housing with ground-floor
commercial, grocery stores, coffee-shops, hardware stores, health clubs, funeral homes,
churches, and personal services such as dry cleaning, beauty, and barbers.
The subject parcel is adjacent to a BN zone to the north and adjoins a BN node to the

Multi-family housing is not allowed in the existing RS 7 .2 zone. However, it is allowed
in the requested RM 1800 zone. The applicant is requesting a comprehensive plan
de s ignation and re zone in order to allow transit-oriented multi-family housing as the
parcel is within one half mile of the planned 272nd Sound Transit L ight Rail Station,

which will be constructed in 2024 at the existing Star Lake Park and Ride, located
adjacent to the intersection of 1-5 and South 272"d Street.
3. Staff Comments
This parcel does not front on a public street and there is no documented access point to
Pacific Highway South. Documented access must be secured before the site will be suitable
for the requested RM 1800 zoning. There is existing RM zoning adjacent and to the west of
the parcel. Single family zoning to the east is buffered from this site by wetlands and a
Native Growth Protection Easement (NGPE), where development is prohibited.

3. Staff Comments
There are ten permitted uses in the PO zone-office, schools, day cares, governmental
facilities, public parks, public transit facility, public utilities, personal wireless service
facilities (PWSFs), churches, and urban agriculture, five of which are public uses. The RS
5.0 zone allows all of the uses allowed in the PO zone, except for office use. The RS 5.0
zone also allows detached dwelling units, senior citizen housing, special needs housing,
attached dwelling units, zero lot line townhouses, and cottage housing.
There is no RS 5.0-zoned land in the surrounding area. Changing the designation of these
two parcels to single family residential would leave an isolated piece of PO-zoned land at
the intersection of SW 320th Street and 21st Avenue SW.

RS 35.0 (one unit per 35,000 square feet). At the time of annexation, language in the
comprehensive plan stated. "The land use/zoning pattern based on the pre-annexation
comprehensive plan and zoning designations would result in urban densities of about four
units per net acre or greater, meeting the Growth Management Act (GMA) goals for urban
level growth. Select areas have pre-annexation comprehensive plan and zoning designations
to accommodate approximately one residential unit per acre on the periphery of the Potential
Annexation Area (PAA), due to sensitive areas and infrastructure limitations." The RS 35.0
zoning of approximately one unit per acre was intended to protect the wetlands in this area.
In June 2015, pursuant to the periodic major update policies of the GMA, the city updated its
environmentally critical area regulations to meet Best Available Science (BAS) requirements.
BAS requirements are intended to protect critical areas such as wetlands, by requiring an
applicant to submit a critical areas report that adequately evaluates the proposal and probable
impacts on a critical area, or its associated buffer and/or setback. Requests #8-13 pertain to
parcels that have a minimum lot size of 35,000 square feet. It may be appropriate to consider
these requests further based on BAS requirements and Goal #2 of the GMA to reduce sprawl
by the inappropriate conversion of undeveloped land into sprawling low-density development.

Site Specific Request # 3 -This request was not studied during the last amendment cycle. This
Puget Center Property subject site was rezoned from Professional Office (PO) to
Neighborhood Business (BN) in 2005 by the City Council at the
applicant's request. Land uses in the immediate vicinity have not
significantly changed during the last five years. The adjacent use to
the north is a single-family development, Parkwood Campus, which
was constructed after incorporation of the city in 1990. The adjacent
use to the east is al s o single-family. The use t o the south across South
312th is a multi-family complex (Greystone Meadows Apartments),
and across the street to the west are a 7-11 convenience store and
Papa John's Pizza on the comer, with a single family residential
subdivision, Mirror Lake Estates, further to the north.

B. Criterion #2 -The proposed amendment is consistent with the overall vision of the
comprehensive plan (FWCP).
Response to Criterion #2 -
The comprehensive plan must be consistent with the GMA. The goals of the GMA include
encouraging development in urban areas where adequate public facilities and services exist,
or can be provided in an efficient manner (Goal #1); reducing the inappropriate conversion of
undeveloped land into sprawling, low-density development (Goal #2); and encouraging the
availability of affordable housing to all economic segments of the population of the state,
promoting a variety of residential densities and housing types, and encouraging preservation
of existing housing stock (Goal #3).
Request Response
Site Specific Request # 2 The Comprehensive Plan states that "The Professional Office
Lakota Rezone designation is intended to allow for well-designed small-scale office

development compatible to adjacent residential neighborhoods"
(FWCP, page 11-17). This parcel is located on the comer of two
major arterials. Changing the designation to BN would be more
consistent with the surrounding area and neighborhood character, in
particular Dash Point Village to the northeast. This is also an isolated
PO property and there are no PO zoning in the block perimeter.
Based on the comprehensive plan, "BN areas are intended to provide
convenient goods (e.g., groceries and hardware) and services (e.g.,
dry cleaners, dentist, and bank) at a pedestrian and neighborhood
scale, close to adjacent residential uses. Developments combining
residential and commercial uses provide a convenient living
environment within these nodes" (FWCP, page 11-15).
Site Specific Request # 3 -The overall vision of the comprehensive plan is to provide an
Puget Center Property appropriate balance of services, employment, and housing. This
comer was designated BN in 2005 to provide for small-scale
commercial uses compatible with adjacent residential neighborhoods;
however, the site has not developed under the existing BN zoning
designation.
Changing the designation of these three parcels to single-family
would be consistent with the overall vision of the comprehensive
plan, which states that "The demand for and development of single-
family housing is expected to continue for the foreseeable future .
Single-family development will occur as in-fill development of
vacant lots scattered throughout existing neighborhoods, and as
subdivisions on vacant tracts ofland" (FWCP, page 11-10).
Site Specific Request # 5 -This parcel has a comprehensive plan designation of Single Family
Campbell Low Density. The comprehensive plan language states that "This
designation is appropriate on or near critical areas, in areas lacking
urban level services and infrastructure; and to retain areas that have
unique area-wide circumstance" (FWCP, page 11-10). Water is
provided by the Lakehaven Water and Sewer District; however, the
parcel is still on septic. Further study is required to determine if the
parcel can be served by sewer. This parcel is not directly constrained
by critical areas . A wetland is located to the north and west of this
parcel and several streams are located to the west and north. Based on
the city's Critical Areas Map, it appears that a portion of the wetland
buffer is located on the northwestern portion of the parcel. Any future
development on the subject property will require a critical area study
to be approved by the city. This must include a wetland classification
and buffer determination under the city's current wetland rating
system.
Request #6 -Shelter According to the comprehensive plan, "The multi-family residential
Resources Park and Ride land use designation represents an opportunity to provide a range of
TOD housing types to accommodate anticipated residential growth. The
increase in population, aging population, increasing diversity, decline
in average family size, and high cost of single-family homes have
created heavy demand for new housing types. The Land Use chapter
encourages the development of housing types, such as duplexes,

townhouses, senior housing, quality apartment units and
condominiums in existing multifamily areas and within mixed-use
development in commercial areas " (FWCP, page 11-12). The
requested RM 1800 zoning is consistent with surrounding uses, as the
parcel in question abuts existing multi-family zoning and a Park and
Ride transit lot. The site's close proximity to transit further supports
the requested zoning, as the comprehensive plan states, "The
overarching goal of VISION 2040 related to land use is to focus
growth within already urbanized areas to create walkable, compact,
and transit-oriented communities that maintain unique local
character" (FWCP, page 11-3).
Request # 7 -Dematteis/ The Comprehensive Plan states that "The Professional Office
Gabrielson Property designation is intended to allow for well-designed small-scale office
development compatible to adjacent residential neighborhoods"
(FWCP, page 11-17). However, as previously stated, there are a very
limited number of uses allowed in this zone . The southern parcel
(132103-9002) is adjacent to an RS 7.2 residential neighborhood to
the south. There is no RS 5.0-zoned land in the surrounding area.
Changing these two parcels in any manner would leave an isolated
approx imately 14,000 square fee t piece of PO zoned land at the
intersecti on of SW 320th Street an d 21st Av e nue SW (p arcel 132103-
9036). As stated in the comprehensive plan, "The demand for and
development of single-family housing is expected to continue for the
foreseeable future. Single-family development will occur as in-fill
development of vacant lots scattered throughout existing
neighborhoods and as subdivisions on vacant tracts ofland" (FWCP,
Page 11-10). Therefore, modifications to the proposal may make it
more viable . Adjustments may include adding the comer piece
(parcel 132103-9036) so as not to leave a small size PO-zoned
property, and designating all three parcels RS 7.2 to be more
compatible with the zoning to the south. Alternatively, changing only
parcel no.132103-9002 to RS 7.2 should be considered, leaving
parcel no. 132103-9091 as PO.
Requests #8-13-Johnson, As discussed in Section V (N), the parcels in question are zoned
Neether, Otteson, Beard, Single Family (RS 35 .0), which requires a minimum lot size of
Ellingson, Dararak 35,000 square feet. At the time of annexation, the adopted RS 35 .0
zoning of approximately one unit per acre was intended to protect the
wetlands in this area.
In June 2015, pursuant to the periodic major update policies of the
GMA, the city updated its environmentally critical area regulations to
meet Best Available Science (BAS) requirements. BAS requirements
are intended to protect critical areas such as wetlands, by requiring an
applicant to submit a critical areas report that adequately evaluates
the proposal and probable impacts on a critical area, or its associated
buffer and/or setback. Given the now adequate protection of critical
areas, such as wetlands, Requests #8-13 are consistent with Goal #2
of the GMA to reduce sprawl by the inappropriate conversion of
undeveloped land into sprawling low-density development. Also ,
providing for smaller lots available for single-family housing would

be consistent with comprehensive plan policy LUP 8, "Designate and
zone land to provide for Federal Way's share ofregionally adopted
demand forecasts for residential, commercial, and industrial uses for
the next 20 years." (FWCP, page 11-9). The requests are also
consistent with Policy HP 15, "As appropriate, reduce minimum lot
sizes to allow construction of smaller, detached single-family houses
on smaller lots" (FWCP, page V-19).
C. Criterion #3 -Whether the proposed amendment meets the existing state and local laws,
including the GMA.
Response to Criterion #3 -None of the requested amendments would be in conflict with local
or state laws if subsequent development of the parcels are in compliance with local and state
regulations, including the FWRC, 2016 King County Surface Water Design Manual
(KCSWDM), and State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA).
D. Criterion #4 -In the case of text amendments, or other amendments to goals or policies,
whether the request benefits the city as a whole versus a selected group.
Response to Criterion #4 -This criterion is not applicable to these requests as they are site-
specific requests and not a request for a text amendment.
If the request meets the criteria set forth in subsections above, it shall be further evaluated
according to the following criteria:
E. Criterion #1 -Whether the proposed amendment can be incorporated into planned or active
projects.
Response to Criterion #1 -If the City Council determines that these requests should be
analyzed further, they can be incorporated into the 2017 Planning Commission Work Program.
F. Criterion #2 -Amount of analysis necessary to reach a recommendation on the request. If a
large-sca~e study is required, a request may have to be delayed until the following year due to
workload, staffing levels, etc.
Response to Criterion #2-None of the requests require a large-scale study.
G. Criterion #3 -Volume ofrequests received. A large volume ofrequests may necessitate that
some requests be reviewed in a subsequent year.
Response to Criterion #3 -Thirteen requests were received. Two have since been withdrawn.
They can all be accommodated in the update process.

Statement of Owner
Application No. 15-104981-00-UP
Request to rezone to
Single Family Residential
Project Name: Puget Center Property
EXHIBIT
-y
Property Address/Location 30901, 31001, 31200 1st Ave S, Federal Way, WA
98003
Parcel Nos. 082104-9074; 082104-9076; and 082104-9167
This property has been owned by the same families for over 40 years. During the
majority of the time, the property was zoned PO -professional office. In 2005, the
property was rezoned to NB -neighborhood business. The property has been listed
for sale for decades. Several sales to developers have been negotiated but were
always terminated by the prospective buyer due to the limitations of the current
zoning and the resistance of the City to a rezone. Consequently, the owners propose
to downzone the permitted use to assist in their efforts to sell the property. On
September 30, 2015, we submitted a Master Land Use Application for rezone to
Single Family Residential. In June 7, 2016 the City initiated a moratorium and
extended it through June 6, 2017, which negatively impacted the Owners' ability to
sell the property as the moratorium was on the expansion or creation of multi-family
housing.
In addition, new Code Amendments proposed in March 2017 to multifamily zoning
and development regulations identified by the City (underground parking,
maintenance and inspection fees funded by landlord) will further restrict the
Owners' ability to sell the property currently zoned NB.
As stated in the application, King County is facing a housing crisis, and the Owners
feel the best use for this land is residential housing, based on surrounding
comprehensive plan designations and zoning as there are single family-zoned
properties (RS 7.2 one unit per 7,200 square feet) to the north and east of these
parcels.
Thank you for your consideration of this Application for Rezone.

TO: Land Use and Transportation Committee
VIA: Jim Ferrell, Mayor
Marwan Salloum ,P.E. Public Works Director Y
FROM: EJ Walsh, P.E. Public Works Deputy Director
Theresa Thurlow, RE Surface Water Manager-"
SUBJECT: Authorization to apply or Department of Ecology Terry Husseman Account (THA) Grant
BACKGROUND:
On July 6, 2017, Department of Ecology (DOE) announced the availability of funding under the Terry
Husseman Account (THA) Grant opportunity. THA Grants fall under the Shorelands and Environmental
Assistance (SEA) Program Funding and can be used to support locally sponsored projects that restore or
enhance the natural environment. Grant awards are typically $25,000 to $50,000.
In answer to a SWM staff inquiry, it was determined that the construction of SWM CIP Project— West
Hylebos Trail and Brook Lake Center Connector — is eligible for this grant opportunity. This project will
connect the end of the West Hylebos Park Wetlands trail and boardwalk to Brook Lake Center, see
attached map.
The West Hylebos Wetlands Park and trail system is critical to SWM's public education and outreach
efforts, including the annual Storming the Sound with Salmon Release Event, which has grown
substantially since 2014. Logistics, safety, and parking are a challenge as the number of students, school
buses, education stations, and salmon fry to be released have increased. At present the wetlands
boardwalk trail terminates at the northern end of Brook Lake, approximately 300 if from Brook Lake
Center. Extension of the trail and boardwalk to Brook Lake Center will allow for adequate parking and
facilities for the students as well as the 40+ volunteers that sponsor the education stations. Connection of
the boardwalk will also exponentially increase efficiency in logistics and decrease demand on SWM
resources that are used to hold this four day event every year. This project was approved by City Council
on June 20, 2017 under the 2017 SWM CIP Update and is scheduled to be designed in 2017 and
constructed in 2018.
