CALL TO ORDER The meeting was called to order at 5:35 pm. 2. APPROVAL OF MINUTES The minutes of the October 7, 1996, meeting were approved as submitted. '-1 3. PUULIC COMMENT There was no comment on any items not included in the agenda. 4. BUSINESS ITEMS A, Soundin¡: Board - The Federal Way caucus of the Sounding Board presented a discussion of their objectives in restructuring transit service in the Federal Way area. A forum for dialogue between the Council and the Sounding Board to share concerns and set priorities was established. The "grid" route system is seen as providing better service than the c~~'qoOp" system. The reduction of articulated buses on residential streets was desirable. Improving service to employment siitis" impacted by the Commute Trip Reduction (CTR) law was identified as key. A need to strike a new balance between DiaL,A....Ride and fixed route service to improve schedule reliability was identified. Future goals include coordination of intercommunity routes with Pierce Transit. B. Bond Issue/Prqject Update - In November 1995 the voters approved a bond issue for street improvemen~. The Committee heard a report on those projects pending, completed, and under construction that are bond issue funded. A J;i,ghtt.urn; lane from South 356th Street onto southbound Pacific Highway South (SR 99) was recently completed. Constrtiction: begán October 14, 1996, on the installation of a traffic signal, channelization, intersection lighting, and sidewalk improve~ents at SW 34Oth and 35th Avenue SW, Construction of a traffic signal at SW Campus Drive and 6th Avenue SW will begin October 30, 1996, The project includes a two-way left t\lJ;n lane at the intersection and extends to the Little League driveway to provide additional left turn storage. Seven other street and traffic improvement projects funded by the bond issue are under design and life scheduled for construction through 1998. C. Comprehensive Plan Update/Public Notification/Fees - The Growth Management Act and HB 1724 provides that amendments may be made to a comprehènsive plan, but no more often than once each year. All proposals shall also be considered by the governing body concurrently so the cumulative effect of the various proposals can be ascertained. The Committee agreed that the City of Federal Way should plan to review the Comprehensive Plan for possible update. Announcement of a Public Hearing should be via typical legal notice. The Committee recommended charging fees to deter frivolous cases. It was the Committee's request that staff return to the next meeting with steps for properly placing the advertisement and a fee schedule for proposed amendments. , ...... D, Plannin¡: Commission Priorities - The Committee discussed at length the Planning Commission Work Plan for 1997. When consensus was not reached, staff was asked to return to the November 4, 1996, meeting with a prioritized list grouping like items together. The Committee asked also that staff research costs of consultants to assist in completing an expanded 1997 Work Plan. . l 5. OTHER ITEMS There were no other items for discussion. 6. FUTURE MEETINGS/AGENDAS The next regular meeting will be held at 5:30pm in City Council Chambers on November 4 ,1996.

The project will widen the street from 3 to 5 lanes, install 12 foot wide sidewalks, street trees, improved lighting, revise the existing traffic signal and resolve the flooding problem that causes the road to be closed during heavy rams. The project is approximately 30% designed and right-of-way aquisition will be required at the intersection of 21st Avenue SW. Two meetings were held with the property owners/tenants to discuss the project and access control. From input received at these meetings we have developed a recommended roadway design and access control plan. An Open House for the public is being planned for approximately November 20, 1996. The 30% complete project plans will be presented at the November 4, 1996 meeting. RECOMMENDATION Place the following items on the November 19, 1996 Council Consent Agenda for approval: 1.

LUTC directed staff to research fees being charged by other jurisdictions in the region and report back to the committee. Staff has contacted the following cities regarding this issues: 1, Kent - charges $500 for comprehensive plan map requests that include a rezone, SErA fee charged on top of the $500 fee. 2, Renton - for comprehensive plan map requests that involve a rezone charge the full fee for the rezone and Y:z the normal comprehensive plan fee. Renton uses a sliding scale for the rezone fees, for instance a comprehensive plan map request that involves a rezone that is less than 10 acres in size would cost the applicant $2,700. This fee includes SErA. A comprehensive plan text request would cost $1,000 and a SErA fee, if applicable. 3. Tukwila - charges a flat $700 fee for comprehensive plan amendment (either map or text), It has not been decided if a separate rezone fee will be charged in cases where a rezone is included, Tukwila has not conducted a comprehensive plan update at this point in time, 4. Auburn - will charge a rezone fee of $250 plus a SEPA fee of $90 for a total of $340, Auburn staff indicated that a fee study will be undertaken by the city early in 1997. , - Federal Way's Fee Resolution adopted in December 1995 does include a comprehensive plan amendment fee. Given the fact that until the 1724 code amendments are adopted, Land Use & Transportation Committee (LUTC) Page 2 October 25, 1996 comprehensive plan amendments can only be initiated by planning commission, council committee or city council this fee has never been used, The following are the related fees from that ordinance: 1. Comprehensive Plan - $500 + $50 per acre (assuming if the request involves a text amendment and not a map amendment the $500 fee would be assessed). 2. SEPA checklist - $900 + $45 Fire District administrative fee. 3. Rezone Fees: to RS zoning district - $450 + $250/acre up to a maximum of $11,000 to RM zoning district - $650 + $800/acre up to a maximum of $17,400 to Commercial/Industrial - $900 + $1,200/acre up to a maximum of $18,500 Direction from LUTC regarding public notice of the comprehensive plan update was to use the normal public notice procedures which would include legal notice in the newspaper, posting city hall and posting the local libraries, Action Requested Recommendation to the full city council for a proposed fee amendment, if any, to the city's fee resolution. Additionally, a recommendation to full council to adopt by motion the public notice process for the annual comprehensive plan update. , ,> N R T E MEMO 0 F E F c To: From: Subject: Date: Greg Moore Greg McCormick, AICP Project Detail on Planning Commission Work Program October 31, 1996 -------------------------------------------------------------------- Project descriptions/work items: 1. 1724 CODE REVISION CARRYOVER a, b. c. d. e. land Use Processes (I - VI) Consolidated review process Notification requirements Appeal provisions Open record hearing/closed record appeal 2.

I N T E R MEMO 0 F F c E To: From: Subject: Date: Land Use & Transportation Committee (LUTC) Greg McCormick, AICP 1997 Planning Commission Work Program - Proposed October 31, 1996 --------------------------------------------------------------------- At the October 21st LUTC meeting, the 1997 Planning Commission work program was discussed. Based on the direction during that meeting staff has prepared the following prioritized work program for further LUTC review and direction: 1. 1724 CODE REVISION CARRYOVER 2.

Wireless Communications Act (if land use regulation changes are necessary to comply with this legislation, staff will comeback to the lUTC for prioritization) Potential legislation passed by the state in 1997 (land Use Study Commission, etc,) With the proposed reduction of two staff from the land Use Division, resources available to the Planning Commission work program will depend primarily on three factors: 1. 2. 3. land use permit activity; Special project work including airport, annexation, economic development, etc.); Changes to the way the land Use planning group operates to free up more' staff time. Given these variables, staff concludes 1 through 6 can be completed during 1997. (Note: Land Use & Transportation Committee (LUTC) Page 3 October 31, 1996 also attached is a more detailed description of content for items 1 - 8) The LUTC asked what additional code amendments could be completed with consultant funds of approximately $100,000. Our recent experience with the Nonresidential Code Revisions & Community Design Guideline project, which involved a consulting team, cost $50,000 to complete, Also, after discussions with Washington State Department of Community, Trade and Economic Development staff estimates that the cost of the Programmatic Environmental Impact Statements for the 348th and City Center subareas (item #2 under comprehensive plan implementation) will be in the neighborhood of $100,000 to $250,000 each depending on the variables involved, depth of analysis and previous completed environmental analysis for the areas. Item #1 under comprehensive plan implementation, 348th subarea plan, would also be very costly in terms of hours spent due to the nature of such plans. If we assume $100,000 in consultant funding, divided by $75 per hour for consultant services (this would include overhead, etc.) that would result in 1,300 hours. Assuming 150 hours per code amendment, that would accomplish about eight of the code amendments under comprehensive plan implementation excluding items #1 & 2. There would also be staff time to administer and monitor the contracts. Requested Action: Recommendation on priorities for the 1997 planning commission work program to the full city council.
