David Kaplan, 30240-27th Avenue South - As Second Vice-President of the Federal Way Community Council invited the City Council to the next meeting of the Community Council on Thursday, June 7, 1990, at 7:30 p.m., in the School District Board Office. City Manager McFall will be the featured speaker. Ardith Butler, 4214 S. W. 325th - concerned about runoff in the Stonebrook development and has been with Greq Moore. Per Mayor Ertel, John Marchione working on concern. Councilmember Webster stated also met with two principals of the development. the water working is also he has V. PUBLIC HEARING - Campus Park 1. Mayor Ertel asked for any exparte contact by councilmembers or any appearance of fairness issue to be identified. Councilmember Webster advised he had met and talked with two principals of the plat partnership and their attorney on March 18, 1990, regarding possible park purchase, but ORIGINAL City Council Minutes June 5, 1990 Page 2 had no discussion regarding the plat. Counci1member Handmacher had a discussion with the attorney for the applicant on the same subject, but did not discuss the plat. Councilmember Templeton had discussion with Councilmember Webster after his meeting with the principals, but did not discuss the plat itself. No one in audience responded to an appearance of fairness conflict. Stephen Clifton, Senior Planner, handed out an amendment to the staff proposal dated June 5, 1990, and reviewed the additional information with council, which he will clarify during his presentation. This is a preliminary plat started in King County, and as a result of incorporation was pulled from King County review and scheduled hearings and moved to the City Council. The proposal is to subdivide 83.5 acres of land into 45 lots ranging in size from one to three acres. The amendment states uses of the zoning and they are not as intensive as what are indicated on page 2 of the staff report. With further clarification from King County, they indicated only those uses stated in the preliminary staff report to the King County Hearing Examiner are the uses allowed, being office park in nature. Councilmember Handmacher requested clarification by City Attorney John Wallace. This project would be vested for subdivision purposes, but it is not vested to King County zoning in terms of future building permit applications, is that correct? Mr. Wallace said thGY are vested under 58.17.033 to land use regulations, including zoning in effect at the time--building permits would have to comply with the City's building codes, but the use would be vested in King County. Mr. Clifton explained that traffic generation has been identified by the King County Subdivision Technical Committee as a major issue in the preliminary review of this proposal. The traffic impact report was prepared by David Hamlin & Associates in June 1989. On page 5 of the staff report under condition 18 (intersection of SR-99 and South 324th)--when he was reviewing the King County Hearing Examiner report and the preliminary staff report to the hearing examiner he noticed a discrepancy between the wording on condition 18 as it related to intersection of SR-99 and South 324th. The staff stated in their report that until they receive documentation or correspondence from the King County Hearing Examiner the City staff would recommend approval with King County conditions--attached to the back of the amendment is a letter from the hearing examiner received this date and in that letter they state condition 18 is to be worded as it appears in the preliminary staff report and not the hearing examiner's report--the condition as stated in the hearing examiner's report is in error. In regard to transportation, the Federal Way Department of Community Development concurs with the recommendations of the city's consultants, Wilsey & Ham/Pacific, and City Council Minutes June 5, 1990 Page 3 recommends approval of the conditions as stated in the King County Hearing Examiner's report related to traffic. The Federal Way Department of Community Development concurs with the conditions as stated in the hearing examiner's report with regard to wetlands, and the fact that the road is encroaching into the NGPE area. After discussing the main issues, the Department of Community Development recommends approval of the preliminary plat per King County Hearing Examiner's findings and conclusions, with the exception of condition 18 at intersection of SR-99 and 324th Street, sub-part B, as stated in the preliminary staff report shall apply. On page 3 of the amendment states the proper wording. QUESTIONS BY COUNCILMEMBERS Councilmember Handmacher asked about Exhibit 7, which is the traffic report of June 1989, which is prior to the revision on the roads on the 330th connection, but couldn't find anything regarding the intersection of 333rd and 1st Avenue South--the east access out of the property. It is a very dangerous intersection. Mr. Clifton said because of the leval of service existing at that intersection, King County did not require the applicant to mitigate the intersection. Councilmember Handmacher asked if there had been a supplement done regarding this intersection? Mr. Clifton referred the question to Richard Lowe of Wilsey & Ham/Pacific who referred to page 21 of the report. Councilmember Handmacher asked about the intersection at 332nd from SR-99. Mr. Clifton responded the developer would provide access if ever vacated and they would provide access from that point to SR-99 and 330th--he doesn't believe any provisions have been made to connect into this area. As it is designed now, there would not be access into the plat from 332nd--the south access would be from 9th Avenue. City Attorney Wallace asked to correct his earlier response to Councilmember Handmacher--they are vested to the regulations for purposes of considering a subdivision, with no building permit applications filed, they would be governed by the use of regulations at the time of completion. Councilmember Templeton asked about the level of traffic service--he understands that the applicant will make improvements and expects 7,508 trips per day out of this property and the level of traffic service would be improved if there was no development. Mr. Clifton will let the city consultants explain traffic service more thoroughly. There are a high number of vehicles, however, with projections and mitigating conditions the 1995 level of service is improved with intersection improvements and 1995 is when they expect to be built out. APPLICANT COMMENTS City Council Minutes June 5, 1990 Page 4 Joel Haggard, 1515 IBM Building, Seattle - he is attorney representing the owner and developer of the Campus Park property; the developers, Hank Jasper and Tom Dillon are present tonight and have prepared and submitted information regarding the plat to the council. Please refer to section 3, which is a brief chronology of the project. Also, section 4, highlights various catagories, i.e., drainage, wetland, internal traffic, off-site traffic. Section 6 indicates the construction totals almost three quarters of a millon dollars. As Councilmember Templeton suggested, it is difficult to understand that the situation will improve when you put more cars on the road, but it does work. Mr. Haggard introduced Jeri Rinart from David Hamlin & Associates who is a professional engineer involved in traffic, and even though she has been retained by the developer, the county's experts in traffic and Wilsey & Ham's consultant have all come to the same conclusion. They all agree that these improvements are required and 330th need not be extended at this time, in fact, the city's own situation would be worse in the future by extending 330th thru. Ms. Rinart responded to the question regarding stop sign control vs. other control at 11th and South 324th--after analyzing for stop sign control, she realized it wouldn't operate adequately, so they are proposing a traffic signal installation for that intersection, which would be the new northerly access into the proposed development. Councilmember Webster asked about traveling east on 324th out of the development and if there will be a left-turn signal to allow traffic to turn left onto 11th Avenue without having to wait for oncoming traffic. Per Ms. Rinart, as proposed now, is not needed. Councilmember Handmacher asked if it has a stacking lane and Ms. Reinart responded no--it is shown as a 4-lane arterial on both streets on Exhibit G. Ms. Rinart responded to the question about the intersection of South 333rd--that intersection was not requested by King County as one of the critical locations, so was not included in the report as part of the traffic analysis. Councilmember Handmacher said he is concerned about the fact that the County didn't request consideration of that area. Councilmember Templeton inquired how they are getting around the transmission tower. Ms. Rinart responded that she is not a highway engineer, so Mr. Clifton may be able to answer that question. Councilmember Handmacher asked about the effect of the 330th connection on the intersection of 336th and 99. Ms. Rinart referred to information in her report, tables 6, 7 and 8, which reflect levels of service for with and without the project. 1995 ~------------_._-_._--_._--- ---- --- City Council Minutes June 5, 1990 Page 5 Attorney Haggard tried to explain the confusion. As the new street is moved out onto 99 in the middle of the plat there will be more trips on 99 up to 324th or down to 336th and because there are trips there instead of coming in from the westside, there will be a change in the level of service of the critical movement of the turning because there are more cars on 99. Councilmember Webster is concerned about the intersection of 336th and 99 due to the extremely heavy traffic, especially at lunchtime and after 5 p.m. Attorney Haggard invited the City's engineer to respond to the above questions. Richard Lowe explained how he made determinations of traffic flow in the various areas and the synchronization of signal lights. As stated in the Wilsey & Ham letter, it is a compilation of tables 6, 7 and 8 of the report of developer's engineer. Attorney Haggard discussed the issue of drainage, which was not discussed in the City's staff report, but was extensively discussed by King County staff. He presented a diagram as an exhibit prepared by Kent Stepan, who described it in detail to the council. Mr. Stepan explained that the collection system is designed for internal collection and discharges into pond, and is controlled at an outlet. Councilmember Handmacher asked if there is any channelization of water into wetland at this time? Mr. Stepan said yes, it comes offsite from the northwest corner of the project and winds down thru the wetland. It is an intermittent drainage channel and not a creek--it is dry in the summer and wet when it rains. There is a drainage system to the north of the area. The only water that will go into the wetland is what comes from offsite from the plat to the north. The water from their their will be a separate internal system that will go into the pond itself. A condition of the wetland enhancement plan allows only offsite water to go into the wetland. Councilmember Gates asked what type of filtration methods are planned. Mr. Stepan said there will be two methods--structures in the internal system that will degrease oil (traps) and also bifiltration around the pond and biofiltration into the pond from the edges of the pond. Councilmember Stead asked about the pipe coming out of the wetland and going into the retention pond. Mr. Steffan explained it is all offsite water, goes thru the wetland, into a controlled elevation and then into the plat's system. Councilmember Handmacher questioned the transmission towers, which Councilmember Templeton asked about earlier. He said they don't look like there is 60 feet right-of-way between the two towers that will have to be crossed. Mr. Steffan said there is 80 feet between them and they will have to put in a 60-foot improved section (includes sidewalks). BPA has approved it--not only the horizontal distance between the towers, but the vertical distance between the lines--there must be a minimum. ------------------------------- City Council Minutes June 5, 1990 Page 6 Attorney Haggard made one final comment--they went thru the County's staff report, as well as those of the City staff and citizens and all of those concerns have been addressed. For example, he notes thoughout the report--the Federal Way Department of Community Development states it concurs with the recommendations of their consultant, Wilsey & Ham/Pacific, and concludes with the recommendation for approval, subject to the conditions. He recognizes that based on council's personal experiences, there have been some additional factors suggested and some questions raised. He feels we must all trust our consultants on the various issues, and would like to conclude with one comment--his clients concur with City staff and urge approval, subject to the conditions. Mayor Ertel recessed the meeting for 5 minutes at the hour of 8:45 p.m. The meeting reconvened at the hour of 8:50 p.m. PUBLIC COMMENT Mayor Ertel opened the meeting for public comment. Bob Hash - Fire Chief, Fire District No. 39. The department has not taken an active part in land use issues to date, but will take an active part in the future. They are concerned about egress without adequate access to 99. They don't feel 330th and 1st have been adequately addressed, and are very dangerous intersections. Also, 324th and 11th Place South are inadequate for left-hand turns. Also, at 99 and 330th--a traffic light would enable foot traffic to cross safely--in 31 years with the fire department he knows of three fatalities at that location. Ralph Ruppert, 3547 Canterbury Lane, Kent. Has shopped in the area for 25 years, so has seen the area grow. He is a shareholder in the plat--it is obvious that the city will grow and we need services and products. Joe Mahoney, 31416-8th Avenue So. He would like to make the suggestion that from 336th north to 11th Avenue that somewhere in that area would be consideration for bike and recreational areas. Steve Varga, 1403 South 330th. He owns the southeast corner of the property. He operates Midway Auto Wreckers and needs access, so he is able to continue operating his business. Jim Cron, 912 South 296th. As chairman of the Transportation Committee of Federal Way Community Council, and also member of D.I.R.E., he has been reviewing this area for over a year. The developer and engineer were interested in comments from the community and one of their comments was the suggestion to bring the access to the east over to 99 at 330th. He favors the project as it is good use of land and will increase the tax base. City Council Minutes June 5, 1990 Page 7 Suzanne Myra, 842 South 327th. Has lived in area for 20 years--near the power lines. She has raised six children and is a firm believer in families and community and she doesn't see anything that will be beneficial if the land is used as is being proposed. She feels the City needs a park, a senior citizen center, etc. Bob Gerend, 14877 S. E. 50th Street, Bellevue. He is one of the partners in the project and has been elected to speak for the other partners. They carefully selected their developers and feel they are the best experts to put together a quality project, and are anxious to go forward. No other citizens came forward to speak at this time. Attorney Haqqard explained that there will not be any additional load on the schools, there will simply be an increase in tax dollars for the city and schools. In response to Mr. Cron's concern about the intersection of 1st and 333rd--their traffic expert indicated that King County did not require examination because it didn't meet the minimum traffic requirement. After hearing council and citizen remarks tonight he recognizes there may be a concern--he would suggest that the applicant's and city's consultants examine the site distance configuration of the intersection of 1st and 333rd as a result of the traffic associated with this development. Then, as a result of that, any appropriate corrections could be done--there is the assurance that it is looked at, but the record is indicated thus far that there is no significant impact or one requiring mitigation. There was a suggestion regarding 11th and 324th intersection regarding the left-turn movement. He would like to ask Jeri about the possibility of including a third lane for left turns. Mr. Lowe said the lights could be adjusted to allow cars turning left to have some additional time, and can always be changed as traffic warrants. Another choice would be to have a green arrow, as well as the green ball. Attorney Haqqard is willing to accept as an additional condition, condition 25 (since examiner had 24) that would reflect the above comments. He is also willing to accept another condition of the preliminary plat approval, a condition setting aside a "City Pride Park Trail", consistent with field observations and review. Finally, with respect to Chief Hash, he understands his concern about getting into the area for emergencies. He would like to suggest that they will continue to work with him during the project development and building permits to assure all of the adequate UFC and UBC requirements are met. With those additional conditions, he would like to repeat his concluding comments--he finds their consultants and the City's consultants are in agreement, and that their consultants are in agreement with City staff, who are in agreement with King County Hearing Examiner. The record is established, is available and recommends unanimous City Council Minutes June 5, 1990 Page 8 approval, subject to conditions. The conditions as outlined by the examiner, as modified by Mr. Clifton with respect to condition 18(b) using the BALD report (instead of the examiner's report due to the typo) and the two additional conditions just discussed: (1) having the consultants' review, subject to City's review of the intersection with respect to addtional left turn; and (2) with respect to the meandering trail as represented on the exhibit. Councilmember Handmacher: In the original drawing for this plat there was a connection for 332nd, which was dropped as part of the redesign to allow for connection of 330th. He asked if the applicant would have any objection to reinstating the connection to 332nd, as an additional circulation element to the 330th connection. Attorney Haqqard consulted with his clients, and responded they are not willing to add that additional condition. Councilmember Gates asked if grading would be done by City or County standards. City Manaqer McFall explained it would be done under City regulations. She also asked if City staff had talked with the applicant about bike path striping throughout the development. Mr. Lowe said that issue had been addressed in the report--there is a section allowing for bicycles since there is no parking and very few driveways on road. It will need to be addressed further for safety factors. Councilmember Templeton asked if City has heard from the City Pride Park Association. City Manaqer McFall said the City hasn't had a response with respect to this specific subdivision, however, he has had prior discussions which are consistent with the Association's ultimate plans. Mayor Ertel closed the public hearing, and advised that the Council will now deliberate on this plat. COUNCIL DELIBERATION Councilmember Templeton asked if there is a standard for open space and community use. Mr. Stepan responded that the plat is limited to 60% of site coverage, including asphalt and buildings, so 40% of all development is required to be set aside for open space and landscaping, but not for public use. Councilmember Handmacher favors the development as an office park plat, but is concerned about the traffic problem--one being the intersection at 333rd and 1st. He does not want to see the plat approved until that study is completed. Two other problems he is concerned about--the connection to 99 at 330th, which is critical, and that of opening up a connection at 332nd, which could be beneficial. An earlier concern of the Council was opening up new connections, so it relieves existing intersections. He strongly feels the 332nd connection should be part of this plat--330th also needs to be opened, and he feels City Council Minutes June 5, 1990 Page 9 these connections should be made as a part of the preliminary plat approval. Mayor Ertel agreed with Counci1member Handmacher that more intersections are needed. Counci1member Gates also wants 333rd considered as an intersection, especially due to safety. After listening to Mr. Varga she agrees with his suggestion and also wants 330th freed up for the development, as well as respect for Varga's business. She also respects Fire Chief Hash's position and wants to thank him for taking such a position that will ultimately help the Council make its decision. She also wants bike path striping for the public. Councilmember Marks remarked about Exhibit C where it mentions three quarters of a million dollars for road improvements for important intersections--he too is concerned about the senior center, and wants to give an affirmative to the other Councilmembers' suggestions. Councilmember Webster said he has many of the same conerns regarding traffic flow and he is not convinced that an intersection at 330th would be a detriment--he feels it would relieve some of the pressure at 336th. Councilmember Handmacher asked City Attorney Wallace about the Council's options for connecting 330th to 99 for this plat--(l) could we require the developer to obtain the right-of-way and put in the roadway if Mr. Varga is cooperative; or (2) could the City work with the developer to acquire the right-of-way and then have developer install the road connection with City doing so under some type of condemnation procedure--are both of those options open or are there other options? City Attorney Wallace said both are potential options, however, if the developer is not willing to participate, the Council will have to find, as a direct result of the impact of the plat, a need for additional conditions. Councilmember Handmacher moved to continue the public hearing until July 3rd at 7:00 p.m., to take additional testimony regarding traffic at 333rd and 1st Avenue; Second by Councilmember Stead. Discussion: Councilmember Handmacher explained that some helpful information would be an estimate of the cost of acquiring the right-of-way along 330th; City Manager McFall explained we could obtain some rough cost estimates. Councilmember Marks asked if it is possible to approve the plat with the agreement that a traffic study would be done. City Attorney Wallace said it is possible, but the question is whether you want the traffic study information prior to approval or afterwards; an after approval situation would set the requirements for study by City staff and whatever mitigation is identified, the applicant would have to accomplish those mitigation measures--it is mainly for the Council's comfort. Councilmember Stead said he has made it clear that he doesn't like cul-de-sacs and he would like to see more access to this plat; for the applicant's benefit, he would like to see some further investigation even beyond 333rd and 1st regarding access. His concern is that it looks City Council Minutes June 5, 1990 Page 10 like all vehicles will be dumping out of three intersections and that will have a detrimental effect on present traffic.

No. 90-29) A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Federal Way, Washington, Repealing Section 2 of Resolution No. 90-20 and Specifying the Officers and Persons Authorized to Invest and Withdraw Funds of the City Motion to approve Resolution No. 90-29 by Counci1member Gates; Second by Councilmember Templeton. Councilmember Gates explained this is a replacement Resolution since the Interim Finance Director has cycled out and the new Finance Director, John Moir, is coming aboard, and we need to have the correct signature appear on financial reports, checks, etc. Councilmember Templeton spoke on behalf of everyone affiliated with the City, as to the great job Ted Bennett did and how much his work was appreciated.

Councilmember Gates explained that this authorizes the Finance Director, as well as the Staff Accountant, to sign checks. Motion passed as follows: Ertel Stead Yes Yes Gates Webster Yes Yes City Council Minutes June 5, 1990 Page 11 Templeton Marks 3. Yes Yes Handmacher Yes A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Federal Way, Washington, Designating "Family Fest" as an Official Celebration of the City and Declaring the City's Intent to Sponsor "Family Fest" as an Annual Civic Event Motion to approve Resolution No. 90-31 by Councilmember Templeton; Second by Councilmember Handmacher. Councilmember Marks said he feels Family Fest is a good thing, a worthy idea and wonderful for the City, but he thinks other activities are also worthy and doesn't feel one particular event should be singled out. He feels this Resolution is inappropriate and should be thought out more thoroughly. He understands the insurance for this year has already been covered through the City, but doesn't think it should be done on an annual basis. Councilmember Handmacher explained that the City agreed to do this, so Family Fest could be covered under the City's insurance this year. Motion made by Counci1member Stead to amend the Resolution to delete the word "annual" from the preamble and text of the Resolution; Second by Counci1member Handmacher. Councilmember Webster wanted to clarify that this event isn't the only worthy one, but he feels that this type of event could be used as an example of future activities within the City. Councilmember Marks doesn't think the Council should set a criteria. Motion to amend Resolution No. 90-31 passed as follows: Ertel Stead Templeton Marks Yes Yes Yes Yes Gates Webster Handmacher Yes Yes Yes Councilmember Templeton said he feels it is the City's responsibility to be an advocate and agent for programs and activities such as Family Fest and future ones, and should be reviewed on their merits. Those programs will help the City become more liveable, and should be a priority for all. He has no problem endorsing events that will be a positive activity. He feels Mary Ehlis and the Family Fest group, including any future ones, deserve the City's support. Motion to approve amended Resolution No. 90-31 passed as follows: Ertel Stead Templeton Marks 4.

Councilmember Templeton asked for refresher report from staff. Counci1member Stead noted that he had asked to be excused from the prior hearing on this plat, and asks that the record reflect that he is refraining from a vote at this time. Councilmember Handmacher pointed out that since there is an August 15th deadline regarding the determination of an access road, he is not sure whose responsibility it is to make that decision. Per City Manager McFall, it is the City's responsibility since the applicant didn't want to do it and is not required to to do so. Councilmember Templeton is concerned about some statements by neighbors of the plat about possible runoff problems. City Manager McFall explained that the City needs to rely upon engineering expertise, which is saying the release rate is adequate. Councilmember Marks advised he talked with the developer about the drainage problems in the area following the public hearing. Councilmember Gates pointed out that this is the plat with the meandering trail. City Manager McFall pointed out that there shouldn't be any problem with meeting the August 15th deadline. He explained if 44th Avenue could be realigned it would give a cross intersection on Dash Point Road to help control any drainage problems. Motion to approve Resolution No. 90-32 passed as follows: CORRECTED. ~FER TO MINUTES OF J, 17/9ð Ertel Stead Templeton Marks Yes Yes Yes Yes Gates Webster Handmacher Yes Yes Yes 5.

Councilmember Handmacher pointed out that we are reviewing the draft dated June 4th, and stated his recollection was they approved this plat, subject to a full width road with full development on both sides of the road--the Resolution draft doesn't provide for sidewalk on the souths ide of the road. Councilmember Stead recalled that they were only talking about curbs and gutters on one side, but he likes the idea of having sidewalks. Mayor Ertel said when they were discussing half streets, they decided there should be curbs and gutters, but the motion was to require full right-of-way. Councilmember Handmacher said full right-of-way is 60 feet and this says 48 feet. Councilmember Handmacher moved to amend Resolution No. 90-33 to provide for full street improvements on the north and south sides of Southwest 342nd, including curbs, gutters and sidewalks; Second by Councilmember Templeton.
