NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of mutual promises and covenants herein
contained in this Agreement, Sound Transit and the City agree as follows:
AGREEMENT
I. SOUND TRANSIT RESPONSIBILITIES
1.1 Project Design
1.1.1 Transportation Improvements
Sound Transit will include in the Project's design, and in the Environmental
Assessment's project description, a description of required mitigation measures to
include the following:
A new traffic signal at the intersection of 23ra Avenue S. and S. 316th Street, to ensure
adequate pedestrian access to the transit center and parking structure.
A new traffic signal at the intersection of 23ra Avenue S. and S. 317th Street, to ensure
access and egress from the transit center and parking structure.
23rd Avenue S. frontage improvements to the Project site between S. 316th Street and S.
320th Street related to the Project as required by the Federal Way City Code.
A future asphalt overlay of S. 317 Street pavement east of 23ra Avenue S. to address
accelerated pavement wear as the result of additional traffic from the Project.
In the event that the transit center and parking structure are completed before the new
ramps are connected to I-5 at S. 317th Street, interim measures will be taken sufficient to
mitigate impacts arising or resulting from operation of the transit center and parking
structure in the absence of the ramps.
1.1.2 Stormwater Management
Sound Transit will include in the Project's design and will construct a stormwater
treatment and detention system which meets the requirements of the Federal Way City
Code (and the King County Surface Water Design Manual as incorporated therein), and
which includes: (a) an on-site stormwater treatment facility capable of treating the runoff
from the Project site and from the widening of that portion of 23rd Avenue S. draining to
the Project site; and (b) an on-site underground stormwater detention facility capable of
detaining two-acre feet of runoff; (c) a conveyance system sufficient to transport runoff
Sound Transit / City of Federal Way MOA
Federal Way Transit Center / Parking Structure
03/14/01, 10:43 AM
from the Project site in excess of two-acre feet, runoff from 23rd Avenue S. Project site,
and runoff from any future transit-oriented development on the Project site to the City's
stormwater conveyance system downstream to the Project site. The on-site stormwater
treatment facility will not provide treatment capacity for runoff from a future transit
oriented development. To the extent possible, the on-site stormwater treatment and
detention facility shall be sited in such a manner as to preserve sufficient space to enable
future construction of a transit-oriented development on land adjacent to 23rd Avenue S.
between S. 317th and S. 316th Street.
With respect to the stormwater detention, treatment and conveyance facilities described
in this Paragraph, Sound Transit agrees to indemnify and hold the City harmless from any
cost increases or damage claims of third parties pursuant to Section III of this Agreement.
1.1.3 Feasibility Analysis of Transit-Oriented Development ("TOD") / Agreement
Sound Transit shall design the parking structure to include such ground-level retail
and/or other transit-oriented development as consistent with and as required by the
City Code.
Sound Transit and the City will prepare and execute an agreement outlining a
cooperative effort to identify an appropriate development that could be placed on the
Project site and complements the transit center and parking structure.
The agreement will also outline a potential approach whereby the Parties would
identify a TOD developer and offer an opportunity to contract for developing a TOD
consistent with Sound Transit Board, Federal Transit Administration ("FTA") and
City policies and appropriate laws and regulations.
Do
The Parties agree that if Sound Transit enters an agreement with a TOD developer
that requires the developer to make payment(s) for use of the property, the income
will be divided between Sound Transit and the City in proportion to each respective
agency's contribution or credit toward the TOD after deduction of any grant related
repayment, if any.
E. The Parties acknowledge that any TOD development at the property may be subject to
Federal Transit Administration review and approval.
1.2 Environmental Review
Sound Transit will respond to agency comments and submit the Environmental
Assessment ("EA") to the FTA and Federal Highway Administration requesting a
Finding Of No Significant Impact ("FONSI") for the Project.
Sound Transit will adopt the EA for State Environmental Policy Act "SEPA"
compliance. The City acknowledges that Sound Transit is currently the lead agency for
the Project and that pursuant to WAC 197-11-600, there can only be one lead agency at a
Sound Transit / City of Federal Way MOA
Federal Way Transit Center / Parking Structure
03/14/01, 10:53 AM
time or nominal lead agency for SEPA compliance per project. The City acknowledges
that pursuant to WAC 197-11-600(4)(a), the City may not subsequently and
independently adopt the EA. If the City is not satisfied that the EA and Sound Transit's
adoption of the EA fully address the impacts of the Project, the Parties acknowledge that
the City retains all of its remedies as provided for in WAC 197-11-600 including the right
to assume lead agency status.
1.3 Design and Review Process
Sound Transit will continue to collaborate with the City to complete design and contract
documents for the Project. Specifically:
Ao
Prior to any construction of the Project, Sound Transit will apply for and obtain all
land use and building permits required by the City Code, and will build the Project in
accordance with the Code and any conditions of such land use and building permits.
B°
Sound Transit will utilize existing preliminary design documents as the basis for final
design, and will incorporate into the final design the design features identified
through the design charette. Sound Transit will provide the City drafts of final design
documents at key review stages, an opportunity to comment, and will incorporate
revisions reasonably requested by the City for incorporation into the final design
documents to the extent that such revision(s) do not adversely impact the Project
budget or compromising essential elements of the design. Revisions required by
federal, state, local laws and regulations (including the City Code) will be
incorporated.
Co
Sound Transit will investigate and explore with the City the possibility of designing
the parking garage to accommodate a building above the garage. The City would be
responsible for additional environmental analyses, documentation and processes
under NEPA and/or SEPA, and the subsequent design, permitting and construction at
a later date. If the Parties mutually agree such a structure is feasible, and if the
Parties enter into a separate agreement setting forth cost allocations, design and other
parameters, then Sound Transit will make appropriate revisions to design documents
to accommodate a building above the parking garage.
Do
Any changes to design documents requested by reviewing agencies shall be subject to
review and approval by the City. In no case will a project revision be made that
conflicts with the Environmental Assessment or FONSI or the SEPA adoption
without applicable revisions as may be required by law to the Environmental
Assessment or FONSI or SEPA adoption.
1.4
mo
Cost Responsibility
Sound Transit agrees to pay the City $569,000.00 to make improvements to 23rd
Avenue S., including new traffic signals at S. 316th Street and S. 317th Street as well

Revision to Draft Proposed Sound Transit Agreement
Background
At the February 21 st Land Use and TransportationCommittee meeting, Public Work's staff presented
a draft of the proposed agreement between Sound Transit and the City for the development of a
Transit Center, Parking Structure, and freeway access improvements. The draft agreement was
presented with the understanding that the agreement may be subject to change pending final review
by Sound Transit and that any revisions to the agreement would be presented to the full City
Council. Since the February 21, 2001 LUTC meeting, Public Works and legal staff have completed
the final negotiations and review process with Sound Transit staff and have attached the final draft of
the proposed agreement for the City Council's consideration.
Summary of Changes/Revisions
The following is intended as a summary of the most significant changes and/or revisions to the draft
agreement that have occurred between the February 21,2001 LUTC meeting and final draft of the
proposed agreement included in the City Council agenda package for the March 20th City Council
meeting.
The final draft of the proposed agreement has been revised in several areas with respect to protecting
Sound Transit in the event they need to condenm any of the necessary properties to facilitate their
proposed project. These revisions include deletingreferencesto assumptions for forty dwelling units
in the proposed project and softening language concerning preservation of space within the project
site for a future transit oriented development.
The balance of the revisions will be highlighted by page number, agreement section, and title.
Page 4, Section 1.1.3, Feasibility Analysis - subsection (A) was added to require Sound
Transit to design the parking structure and/or TOD to include ground-level retail consistent
with City Code.
· Page 4, Section 1.2, Environmental Review- a new paragraph was added that consolidated
portions of the previous Section 2.2 Environmental Review and provided clarification to
what the City's roles and responsibilities are with respect to the EnvironmentalReview of the
Sound Transit project and what the City's remedies are under WAC 197-11-600 if the City is
not satisfied with Sound Transit's Environmental Assessment.
· Page 5, Section 1.3, Design and Review Process - additional language was added to
subsection (C) to provide clarification on the City's responsibilities if the parties agree to
pursue the redesign of the parking structure to accommodate a building above the parking
structure.
· Page 6, Section 1.4, Cost Responsibility- subsection (B) was revised by deleting reference
to the City's Transportation Improvement Program and inserting an Exhibit"A" that lists the
City's Transportation Improvement projects impacted by Sound Transit's proposed project.
· Page 8, Section III, Legal Relations - this section was added and a mutual indemnification
was granted to both parties.
Conclusion
In summary, the majority of the draft agreement presented to the Land Use and Transportation
Committee remained in tact and the revisions that were made primarily provided clarification or
direction.

SUMMARY/BACKGROUND: The City entered into a one-year professional service agreement with the
Federal Way Chamber for the implementation of certain elements of the City's 2000 tourism program. In
December 2000, the City Council unanimously approved 2001-2004 tourism action plan from 2001 through
2004, funded by the 1% lodging tax. Among other programs, the 2001 segment of the work plan calls for the
introduction and the formation of a Business Improvement Area in the city center core; the continuation of
major events through the tourism enhancement grant; the continuation of developing, updating, publishing
nd distribution of tourism information through printed and electronic media; and to work with Sound Transit
to provide space for an electronic information kiosk at the proposed new transit center.
Considering the similarity and overlapping nature within the 2001 programs and also between 2000 and 2001
programs, staff believes it would be most efficient and cost effective, from both administrative and
implementation perspectives, to consolidate these related 2001 program elements into one contract, as an
addendum to the 2000 tourism contract with the Chamber.
CITY COUNCIL COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION: Approve and authorize the City Manger to
execute the proposed contract amendment forward the recommendation to full Council on March 20,

Chamber 2001 Tourism Service Amendment
Background:
The City entered into a one-year professional service agreement with the Federal Way Chamber for the
implementation of certain elements of the City's 2000 tourism program. The agreement includes the
coordination of a joint tourism marketing effort; the production and distribution of tourism information
material; the formulation and the solicitation of a tourism enhancement grant program.
In December 2000, the City Council unanimously approved 2001 - 2004 tourism action plan form 2001
through 2004, funded by the 1% lodging tax. Among other programs, the 2001 segment of the work plan
calls for the introduction and the formation of a Business Improvement Area in the city center core; the
continuation of major events through the tourism enhancement events grant; the continuation of
developing, updating, publishing and distribution of tourism information through printed and electronic
media; and to work with Sound Transit to provide space for an electronic information kiosk at the
proposed new transit center.
Staff Recommendation:
Considering the similarity and overlapping nature within the 2001 programs and also between 2000 and
2001 programs, staff believes it would be most efficient and cost effective, from both administrative and
implementation perspectives, to consolidate these related 2001 program elements into one contract, as an
addendum to the 2000 tourism contract with the Chamber. Attached is the proposed scope of work for
the contract amendment to implement these elements of 2001 tourism program.

Tourism Enhancement Grant
OVERVIEW
The City of Federal Way (the City) adopted a 1% lodging tax for the purpose of promoting and
enhancing local tourism activities. The Greater Federal Way Chamber of Commerce (the
Chamber) also formed a Tourism Commission with focus on the increase of overnight stays in
Federal Way. To achieve these goals, the Chamber and City have entered into a one-year
partnership agreement for a tourism promotion program in Federal Way. One element of the
program designed particularly to increase overnight stays in Federal Way is a competitive
tourism enhancement grant (TEG) to support sports, cultural arts and community events that
will occur in the Federal Way area.

SUMMARY/BACKGROUND: The 2001-02 Human Services Funding Plan (adopted by Council on
11/21/00) reserved $27,000 to contract for domestic violence (DV) community advocacy services with an
agency to be named later. The Human Services Division released a Request for Proposals (RFP) on January
10, with proposals due January 26, 2001. Five proposals were received. Human Services staffanalyzed each
proposal, invited input from expert reviewers at the Federal Way DSHS office and the King County
Community Services Division, and took comments from the City Prosecutor's Domestic Violence Unit. The
Human Services Commission interviewed each applicant at their February 26, 2001 meeting. The
Commission voted to recommend Federal Way Youth and Family Services as contractor. This agency has
five office locations in Federal Way, offering a high level of access~ility to Federal Way clients. The
agency will also take part in regional domestic violence service provision (when providing information and
referral sources to clients), data gathering and system planning.
CITY COUNCIL COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION: At the March 12, 2001 Parks, Recreation,
Human Services, and Public Safety (PRHSPS) Committee meeting, the committee voted unanimously to
forward the following recommendation to the City Council - The Committee recommends selection of
Federal Way Youth and Family Services to provide domestic violence community advocacy for the 2001-02
biennium, as recommended by the Human Services Commission.
CITY MANAGER RECOMMENDATION: Motion to approve the Council Committee recommendation
selecting Federal Way Youth and Family Services as contractor for domestic violence advocacy services.

2001-02 Dome~tiC Violence Advocacy RFP
Background
The 2001-02 Human Services Funding Plan (adopted by Council on 11/21/00) reserved
$27,000 to contract for domestic violence (DV) community advocacy services with an agency to
be named later. The Human Services Division released a Request for Proposals (RFP) on
January 10, with proposals due January 26, 2001. Five proposals were received and copies
were mailed to Human Services Commissioners and placed in the City Council office on
January 30, 2001.
If you have any questions regarding the DV RFP, please contact me at camronpL'~.fedwa¥.or.q
or (253) 661-4153.
RFP Analysis
Human Services staff have reviewed each proposal and have developed the following tools to
assist in the Council's review. The first is a matrix summarizing the services proposed by each
agency and the performance measures offered. This chart can be used to compare and
contrast each proposal. The second tool is a two-page detailed review of each proposal. This
records the staff review and incorporates comments given by two guest reviewers, representing
the King County Community Services Division and the Federal Way office of the state
Department of Health and Social Services (DSHS). Staff also received comments on the
proposals from the City Prosecutor's Office.
The remainder of this memo will provide a brief summary of each proposal (in alphabetical
order), followed by a staff and Commission recommendation.
Catholic Community Services (CCS)
This agency proposes to offer case management, emergency shelter, and advocacy to
domestic violence victims and their families. They also offer community education to increase
awareness of domestic violence issues. CCS is a well-respected service provider in the South
King County area. However, they do not have direct experience in domestic violence advocacy
and focused much of the proposal on provision of emergency shelter. Shelter provision was not
included in the RFP scope of work, as the City already funds emergency shelter services
through several other contracts.
Domestic Abuse Women's Network (DAWN)
This agency proposes to offer crisis intervention (through a 24-hour telephone hotline),
community advocacy and case management to DV victims. Their proposal includes a
community education program. The agency also provides confidential shelter and transitional
housing. DAWN has historically provided community advocacy services to the City of Federal
Way. Due to concerns with quality of services for the past two years, the City chose not to
contract for advocacy services with this agency in 2001-02 through the Human Services
General Fund process. The City maintains a contract for confidential domestic violence victim
shelter services.
The Executive Director position is currently vacant and the Board of Directors has increased
from 6 to 13 members in the last three months. Significant changes are taking place at the
agency, but concerns with quality of service have not yet been resolved.
Federal Way Youth and Family Services (FWYFS)
This agency proposes to expand their current advocacy program to meet the requirements of
this RFP. The services proposed include community advocacy, case management, and a
community education program. FWYFS has a long established DV perpetrator treatment
program and has recently began offering community advocacy to victims in conjunction with the
Federal Way DSHS office. The agency is highly involved in the Federal Way Domestic
Violence Task Force and has five service locations in Federal Way where the advocate can
meet with victims in a safe environment.
Valley Cities Counseling and Consultation (VCCC)
This agency proposes to create a new community advocacy program to complement their
young DV perpetrator treatment program. Their proposal includes community advocacy, 24-
hour crisis response, therapy and victim support groups. VCCC has been providing services to
victims of violence (domestic and otherwise) in Federal Way for seven years. The agency does
not have direct experience with DV community advocacy, but does regularly attend the Federal
Way Domestic Violence Task Force.
YWCA
This agency proposes crisis intervention, community advocacy, case management, support
groups and a community education program. YVVCA is building a sub-regional advocacy
program and has secured contracts with Kent, Tukwila, Renton and Covington for similar
services. The agency has experience in community advocacy, but has not previously offered
direct advocacy services in Federal Way. From offices in Renton and Kent, advocates would
travel to Federal Way to meet with clients at pre-arranged safe locations.
Staff Recommendation
In analyzing the proposals received, staff considered several criteria. These included the
agency's response to the given scope of work, the agency's professional experience in the field,
the cost of service, the amount of time necessary to begin service provision, and the level of
service accessibility for Federal Way residents.
Of the five proposals offered, the FWYFS and YVVCA proposals met the scope of work given in
the RFP, are prepared to begin services immediately, and have the experience necessary to
provide a high level of service quality. Considering this, either agency would be a viable
contractor.
The pdmary difference between the two proposals is the geographic scope of services. The
YWCA proposes a sub-regional approach, by contracting with a number of South King County
cities for similar services. FWYFS proposes a local service, available only to Federal Way
residents. Because domestic violence victims are mobile (for safety reasons) and often
homeless, a sub-regional approach can be beneficial. However, sen/ice coordination for
victims must occur at a local level - with human service providers and criminal justice agencies.
Human Sen/ices staff recommend contracting with Federal Way Youth and Family Sen/ices for
the 2001-02 biennium. The agency has a solid reputation in the Federal Way community and
pre-existing working relationships with local referral sources including the City of Federal Way
Prosecutor's Office, the Public Safety Department, the Federal Way DSHS office and the Multi-
Service Center. Unlike any other proposal, FVVYFS can offer five service locations in Federal
Way (and will meet with clients outside of city limits, if safety demands). While unable to offer
the YWCA's sub-regional approach, FVVYFS plans to take part in County-wide data gathering
and on-going sub-regional DV system planning. Additionally, the agency will participate in
regional DV trainings to learn of and network with area service providers.
Commission Recommendation
The Human Services Commission discussed this issue at their February 26, 2001 meeting.
After interviewing each applicant, the Commission voted to recommend Federal Way Youth and
Family Services as the contractor for domestic violence community advocacy services.
Committee Recommendation
1. The Committee recommends selection of Federal Way Youth and Family Services to
provide domestic violence community advocacy for the 2001-02 biennium, as
recommended by the Human Services Commission. This recommendation is forwarded to
the full City Council for consideration at the March 20, 2001 meeting.
2. The Committee recommends selection of to
provide domestic violence community advocacy for the 2001-02 biennium. This
recommendation is forwarded to the full City Council for consideration at the March 20,
2001 meeting. .,~..),/~,

CITY OF FEDERAL WAY HUMAN SERVICES DIVISION
2001-2002 DV Request for Proposals
Review
Agency:
Catholic Community Services (CCS)
1. Does the proposal adequately address the full scope of work? Yes I ~ Why or why not?
No. Proposal broadly describes services for domestic violence victims including many services
outside of the scope of work such as emergency shelter, children's services and support
groups. Proposal does not adequately address the scope of the community advocacy services
specifically or in depth - instead focusing on provision of shelter. The proposal does not
address safety planning, crisis call response, how victims' safety will be protected, or what kind
or level of training their staff has regarding domestic violence. Regarding education, the
;~roposal noted that two trainings will be provided each month, but does not describe the content
of the community education.
2. Does the agency have adequate experience providing DV community advocacy services? Does
the agency have an established record in providing this service (question 4)? Explain
No. The agency has experience in providing general case management, motel vouchers, and
transitional housing for homeless individuals (which often include domestic violence victims).
CCS does not have documented experience providing community advocacy services as defined
in the scope including safety planning with victims, crisis intervention, and community education
services.
3. How accessible will services be to Federal Way residents- geographic, culturally, linguistically,
etc (question 5-7,9)?
Application states that services will be provided in Kent and does not give any provisions for
serving those who cannot get to Kent.
CCS has linguistic capacity and participates in regular cultural diversity training.
4. Will the City be receiving a good level of service for the amount requested (question 10,15)?
Does the budget seem reasonable for the level of service proposed? Is this program cost-
effective? Does the agency have a diverse funding base?
Annually, the program will serve 84 Federal Way residents at $321 per client. The agency has
offered to provide 60 advocacy hours for the 84 residents - this translates to a cost of $255 per
hour of advocacy (comparing 60 hours to personnel and operating costs of budget). Of the five
proposals, this is the least cost effective in terms of hours of advocacy.
The budget is for 10 months only - meaning the 12-month budget would be $32,400. How will
the agency fund the $5,400 in 2002?
Agency has diverse funding base (although only 26% of the listed revenue sources are currently
secured). The City is requested to pay for 28% of the program, with 72% requested or secured
from other sources.
5. Note 3-4 strengths and weaknesses of this ag
1. Has established a working relationship with
the FW Public Safety Department through the
after-hours voucher program.
2. CCS has more than 12 years experience
serving Federal Way residents.
3. CCS is an established provider with positive
working relationships in the community. Shares
office space in Kent with specialized service
providers who are involved in DV advocacy for
minority populations.
4. Has connection to a broad range of existing
CCS human service programs.
~ncy's proposal.
1. Proposal is more shelter focused than
advocacy focused. It does not adequately
address the scope of work.
2. The agency's domestic violence training and
expertise is not adequately described.
3. No 24-hour crisis response system.
6. Please provide your overall thoughts on this proposal. Then, ranking all the proposals
reviewed, in your opinion, what rank order would this proposal fall?
The proposal does not adequately address the scope of work. The proposal does not
adequately address the agency's experience and qualifications to provide domestic violence
advocacy services, though the proposal states that agency staff have domestic violence
training, it is not clear what that training is. A significant portion of the budget is devoted to
shelter provision, which is outside the scope of the RFP. The City funds emergency shelter and
specifically domestic violence shelter through other programs.
CiTY OF FEDERAL WAY HUMAN SERVICES DIVISION
2001-2002 DV Request for Proposals
Review
Agency:
Domestic Abuse Women's Network (DAWN)
1. Does the proposal adequately address the full scope of work? ~ / No Why or why not?
The proposal adequately addresses the scope of work. Federal Way residents would be served
by a minimum of five agency advocates working in a pool (rather than one advocate taking all
Federal Way cases). The community education curriculum is detailed.
2. Does the agency have adequate experience providing DV community advocacy services? Does
the agency have an established record in providing this service (question 4)? Explain
The agency has provided community advocacy services for a number of years. However,
changes at the agency in the past year and a half have greatly impacted the level of services
per client and the quality of services provided. Though the proposal states that the program
currently has no waiting list for services, it notes that at times the agency does have a waiting
list of three weeks for advocacy services. During 2000 the service year, city staff was told
several times that the agency had a three-week wait for services.
3. How accessible will services be to Federal Way residents - geographic, culturally, linguistically,
etc (question 5-7,9)?
The main agency site is located in a confidential South County location, outside of Federal Way.
The proposal does not emphasize geographic accessibility, but does say that advocates
frequently accompany clients to court (located in City limits). Advocates are also available to
meet with clients at any safe pre-arranged location.
The program has brochures in Spanish and cards in Braille with the crisis line phone number.
DAWN utilizes volunteer interpreters.
Will the City be receiving a good level of service for the amount requested (question 10,15)?
Does the budget seem reasonable for the level of service proposed? Is this program cost-
effective? Does the agency have a diverse funding base?
DAWN's revenue projections include state funding, United Way and pdvate foundations. The
agency has recently lost $362,000 in funding from cities due to concerns about quality of
service, contract performance, and agency operations. Future funding from cities and the
County is uncertain. The proposal does not address what impact this loss will have on the
agency's ability to provide services.
The proposal states that 36 Federal Way residents will be served at $750.00 per client. This
rate seems very high. They propose to offer 360 hours of client advocacy (10 hours per client).
In 2000, DAWN averaged 3-4 hours of advocacy per Federal Way client. It is not clear what
factors contribute to the difference between the level of service proposed for the RFP and actual
past practice.
5. Note 3-4 strengths and weaknesses of this ag,
:ncy's proposal.
1. The agency provides the full range of 1. The agency is in transition with a high
domestic violence services including shelter, number of new board members, a vacant
crisis line, and advocacy, executive director position, and few public
funding sources.
2. 2. Most services are provided outside of the City
at a "central" South King County location.
3. 3. The agency often has a 3-week waiting list for
advocacy services.
4. 4.
6. Please provide your overall thoughts on this proposal. Then, ranking all the proposals
reviewed, in your opinion, what rank order would this proposal fall?
In 2000, the quality of agency services declined and public funding was significantly reduced.
The agency's Executive Director resigned in February 2001.
This agencY is a community-based DV agency that has experience serving Federal Way
residents. It should be noted however, that this agency made an application for this same
service for the 2001-2002 biennium. They were not recommended by the Human Services
Commission, nor did they receive an award from the City Council. Instead, funds for domestic
violence community advocacy were reserved for this RFP process.
Several significant changes have occurred at the agency since they submitted their 2001-02
General Fund Human Services application. The Board of Directors has increased from six to
thirteen, and in February 2001, the executive director resigned. Due to this high level of
transition, an uncertain funding base and quality of service concerns, staff does not recommend
funding this program at this time.
CITY OF FEDERAL WAY HUMAN SERVICES DIVISION
2001-2002 DV Request for Proposals
Review
Agency: I Federal Way Youth & Family Services (FVVYFS)
1. Does the proposal adequately address the full scope of work? ~ I No Why or why not?
The proposal addresses the full range of the scope of work including specifically describing the
advocacy services to be provided.
2. Does the agency have adequate experience providing DY community advocacy services? Does
the agency have an established record in providing this service (question 4)? Explain
The agency is a new domestic violence community advocacy service provider. Federal Way
Youth and Family Services has provided domestic violence advocacy services since the fall of
2000, in partnership with the Federal Way office of the State Department of Social and Health
Services (DSHS). The DSHS contract manager reports a high level of satisfaction with the
FVVYFS program and staff.
The agency has experience in providing domestic violence perpetrator treatment and support
groups for victims.
3. How accessible will services be to Federal Way residents- geographic, culturally, linguistically,
etc (question 5-7,9)?
Services will be very accessible to Federal Way residents, given that the agency has five
locations in Federal Way. The agency has multi-lingual and multi-cultural staff including
Korean, Hispanic/Latino, and Russian/Ukrainian. The agency has a solid relationship with the
City of Federal Way Prosecutor's office and the Victim Assistance Unit of the Public Safety
Department. The agency has made a priority of coordinating service provision for Federal Way
DV victims.
The agency does not have an immediate cdsis response system in place - although they can
respond to calls for service within a 24-hour period.
Will the City be receiving a good level of service for the amount requested (question 10,15)?
Does the budget seem reasonable for the level of service proposed? Is this program cost-
effective? Does the agency have a diverse funding base?
The City will receive a good level of service for the funding requested. The proposal states that
200 Federal Way residents will receive 700 advocacy hours, which is $38.57 per hour or $135
per client. This is a reasonable cost per client. However, the number of service hours to be
provided to each client is 3.5 hours. This seems like a Iow level of services for each client and
may be an issue to address with the applicant during the interview.

This is a strong proposal. The proposal adequately addresses the scope of work and
specifically addresses domestic violence specific issues such as safety planning, confidentiality,
power of control wheel, and crisis intervention. The agency is accessible through multiple
service locations in Federal Way. The agency's multi-lingual and multi-cultural staff is also a
strong asset for the community advocacy program, as the agency has an ability to serve people
from a diverse range of cultures and with diverse languages. Existing relationships with the
Prosecutor's office, Public Safety Department, and DSHS office are a plus and would likely lead
to a high degree of local service coordination.

Agency:
Valley Cities Counseling & Consultation (VCCC)
1. Does the proposal adequately address the full scope of work? ~ / No Why or why not?
The proposal adequately addresses the full scope of work including cdsis intervention, safety
~lanning, and specific criminal justice system advocacy, counseling services, community
education and task force participation. In addition, the application offers support groups as part
of this proposal, which is beyond the stated scope of work.
2. Does the agency have adequate experience providing DV community advocacy services? Does
the agency have an established record in providing this service (question 4)? Explain
The agency provided advocacy services for victims of all forms of violence (including but not
limited to domestic violence) from 1997-99 through a DSHS contract. Since 1992, the agency
has offered the Survivors Support and Therapy program, which provides mental health services
designed to assist with the recovery and to stop patterns of abuse and family violence. In 1999,
the agency began offering domestic violence perpetrator treatment.
While the agency has experience that is related to domestic violence community advocacy
services, they do not have specific domestic violence advocacy experience. It also not clear in
the application what experience and training agency staff have regarding domestic violence.
3. How accessible will services be to Federal Way residents - geographic, culturally, linguistically,
etc (question 5-7,9)?
The proposal describes a geographically accessible program. The agency has a Federal Way
office and the community advocate will meet with clients in their homes and other community
locations, and accompany clients to court (as appropriate). In addition, the agency has a pre-
existing 24-hour crisis response system through a telephone messaging service.
Regarding cultural and linguistic accessibility, the agency contracts with a number of specialized
providers to serve diverse populations including Asian Counseling and Referral Service,
Consejo, Seattle Indian Health Board and services for the deaf and hard of hearing. Staff
participates in annual cultural diversity training.
Will the City be receiving a good level of service for the amount requested (question 10,15)?
Does the budget seem reasonable for the level of service proposed? Is this program cost-
effective? Does the agency have a diverse funding base?
Agency will serve 27 clients and provide 270 hours of community advocacy for the $27,000
requested. An average of ten hours of advocacy will be provided to each client at a cost of
$100 per hour. Though the number of hours to be provided to each client seems like a
reasonable level of service, the cost per hour seems high.
The budget provided in the proposal is incomplete and difficult to interpret. The listed revenue
sources King County and "Private pay and insurance." This agency did apply to the two other
cities participating in the RFP (Tukwila and Kent). These revenue sources, including the
Federal Way RFP amount should be included in the proposed budget. As presented, the
budget shows an annual deficit of almost $8,000. It is not clear why the agency is proposing to
start an advocacy program that may not be self-supporting.
5. Note 3-4 strengths and weaknesses of this ag
~ncy's proposal.

2. The proposal adequately addresses the 2. Though located in Federal Way, the agency

4. 24-hour crisis response system. 4. Proposed budget incomplete and unclear.
6. Please provide your overall thoughts on this proposal. Then, ranking all the proposals
reviewed, in your opinion, what rank order would this proposal fall?
The proposal adequately addresses the scope of work. The agency has no specific domestic
violence advocacy experience and has not submitted a viable program budget. While a
community advocacy program would complement their relatively new perpetrator treatment
program, other agencies have a more established track record for provision of advocacy
services.

2001-2002 DV Request for Proposals
Review
Agency: I YWCA of Seattle/King & Snohomish Counties
1. Does the proposal adequately address the full scope of work? ~ I No Why or why not?
The proposal addresses the full scope of work, and includes additional services that are not in
the scope such as support groups and victim-defendant services. The proposal also addresses
outreach to domestic violence victims through court and other locations. The proposal
emphasizes safety of the client and accessibility of services.
2. Does the agency have adequate experience providing DV community advocacy services? Does
the agency have an established record in providing this service (question 4)? Explain
The YWCA is an established provider in South King County and has a range of domestic
violence services. The Y~VC^ recently began providing domestic violence advocacy for the
cities of Kent, Tukwila, and Covington and will begin service provision to the City of Renton in
April 2001. The agency provides specialized community advocate services for African-
American residents, which is partially funded by King County. The YWCA also provides
domestic violence transitional housing and case management through their Anita Vista facility.
3. How accessible will services be to Federal Way residents - geographic, culturally, linguistically,
etc (question 5-7,9)?
Services will be provided in Federal Way locations that are accessible to clients with emphasis
on safety. Services will be coordinated from the agency's Kent or Renton offices.
The program will work with specialized providers to serve diverse ethnic and cultural
populations and use interpreters as needed. Agency staff participates in diversity training. As
noted above, the YWCA has a domestic violence community advocate who specializes in
working with African-American clients.
The agency has not previously had a significant presence in Federal Way as a social services
provider. They do, however, provide case management services for the Federal Way
Community Caregiving/FUSION transitional housing program.
Will the City be receiving a good level of service for the amount requested (question 10,15)?
Does the budget seem reasonable for the level of service proposed? Is this program cost-
effective? Does the agency have a diverse funding base?
The program will serve 70 Federal Way residents at $386 per client. The agency has offered to
provide 888 advocacy hours for the 70 residents - this translates to a cost of $30 per hour of
advocacy. Of the five proposals, this is the most cost effective in terms of hours of advocacy.
The agency has a diverse funding base, of which almost half has already been secured. City
funds would pay for 25% of the services to be provided to Federal Way residents. This proposal
provides the best opportunity to leverage other funds supporting services to Federal Way
residents.
5. Note 3-4 strengths and weaknesses of this
;ncy's proposal.
1. Proposal adequately addresses the scope of 1. Though the agency is an established provider

services for other South County cities.
3. This program has recently requested United 3.

to serve all South County residents.
4. 4.
6. Please provide your overall thoughts on this proposal. Then, ranking all the proposals
reviewed, in your opinion, what rank order would this proposal fall?
This proposal provides the best opportunity to maintain a sub-regional approach to provision of
domestic violence advocacy services. The agency is currently working with a number of other
South King County cities and is building a strong community advocacy program.
The agency has the requisite experience to provide the service. However, the YWCA has not
had a great deal of previous experience providing services in Federal Way. For that reason,
some start-up time may be required for the agency to build a referral network and develop a
coordinated service approach among local agencies.

ATTACHMENTS: Memo from ChiefKirkpatrick to the Parks, Recreation, Human Services & Public Safety
Committee regarding the City of Fife Jail Interlocal Agreement, and the draft of the Interlocal Agreement between
the City of Federal Way and City of Fife.
SUMMARY/BACKGROUND: Pursuant to the Interlocal Cooperation Act as governed by RCW Chapter 39.34.080,
the City of Federal Way Department of Public Safety requests approval to enter into an Interlocal Agreement with the City of
Fife for a cooperative effort to provide Federal Way Department of Public Safety with cost-effective housing of inmates in the
Fife Jail.
The purpose of this Agreement is to set forth the terms and conditions by which the City of Fife will provide the Federal Way
Department of Public Safety a place of confinement for the incarceration of Federal Way inmates. Fife will provide a minimum of
10 beds per day and shall accept and house a minimum of 10 Federal Way inmates per day. Fife also agrees to make additional beds
.n excess of 10 available to Federal Way on a "first come, first served" or "space available" basis. The term set forth will begin
April 2001 (specific date yet to be determined) and end December 31, 2002 with options to renew automatically for like terms and
conditions or terminate this Agreement as outlined in Section 17. This Agreement also outlines other specific concerns relevant to
mutual expectations and responsibilities.
With the estimated 40% increase to the King County Jail billings over the past 24 months, the Department is exploring several
proactive strategies to reduce jail costs. The benefits realized by this new venture would afford City of Federal Way an
opportunity to build a favorable relationship between the Department of Public Safety and the Fife Jail and allow the
Department to accomplish one of its objectives to reduce jail costs. Fife agrees to accept compensation in the amount of $63.00
per bed/inmate per day and to make any contracted bed not used by Federal Way available for use by other agencies. Both
Municipalities agree that Fife will not charge a separate booking fee.
As requested by Council at the City Council Meeting on March 6, 2001, staff has reviewed and negotiated the changes
requested by Fife. The changes are generally minor and are signified by strike through and underlining within the contract.
The modification to Section 2b clarifies that Fife is not obligated to rent Federal Way's beds at $63.00 per day, and that Fife has
the option to fill the other beds in its facility before Federal Way's. Section 8 now specifies that Federal Way shall pay directly
or reimburse Fife for all medical care and that Federal Way reserves the right to remove any prisoner who requires medical care
to a jail facility, which may appropriately address the prisoner's medical needs.
CITY COUNCIL COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION: At the February 21, 2001 meeting the Parks,
Recreation, Human Services and Public Safety Committee recommended that the proposed City of Fife Interlocal
Jail A~reement be forwarded to the City Council for consideration at the March 6, 2001 meeting.
CITY MANAGER RECOMMENDATION: Motion to authorize the City Manager to sign the Agreement.

39.34.080, the City of Federal Way Department of Public Safety requests approval to enter into
an Interlocal Agreement with the City of Fife for a cooperative effort to provide Federal Way
Department of Public Safety with cost-effective housing of inmates in the Fife Jail.
The purpose of this Agreement is to set forth the terms and conditions by which the City of Fife will

other agencies at a minimum charge of $63.00 per bed/inmate per day, and all amounts received
from such other agencies will be credited to Federal Way's bill. Both Municipalities agree that Fife
will not charge a separate booking fee.
Attached is the draft for an Interlocal Agreement between the City of Federal Way and City of Fife.
Committee Recommendation:
Motion to approve and accept this request for an Interlocal Agreement between City of Federal Way

At the time a person is presented to the Fife jail for booking by a Federal Way
officer, the Fife corrections staff will make a determination if the suspect and/or prisoner will be
accepted for booking. Persons injured, extremely ill, or exhibiting behavior that presents an
obvious danger to the staff or other prisoners will not be accepted.
4. RIGHT OF INSPECTION
Federal Way shall have the fight to inspect, at all reasonable times, all of the Fife Jail in
which Federal Way's inmates are confined in order to determine if such jail maintains standards
of confinement acceptable to Federal Way and that such inmates therein are treated equally
Interlocal Agreement Between City of Fife/City of Federal Way
2
03/13/2001

obligated to manage, maintain and operate its facilities consistent with all applicable federal,
state and local laws and regulations.
5. FURLOUGHS, PASSES, AND WORK RELEASE
Fife agrees that no early releases or alternatives to incarceration, including furloughs,
passes, work crews, electronic home detention, or work release shall be granted to any inmate
housed pursuant to this Agreement without written authorization by the committing court.
Provided, Fife shall be under no obligation to allow furloughs, passes, work crews, electronic
home detention or work release.
6. INMATE ACCOUNTS
Fife shall establish and maintain an account for each inmate received from Federal Way
and shall credit to such account all money which is received and shall make disbursements,

Police for Fife shall be accountable to Federal Way for such inmate funds. At either the
termination of this Agreement, the inmate's death, or return to either Federal Way or indefinite
release to the court, the inmate's money shall be transferred to the inmate's account in care of

It shall be the responsibility of Fife to confine the inmate or inmates; to provide
treatment, including the furnishing of subsistence and all necessary medical and hospital services
and supplies; to provide for the inmates' physical needs; to make available to them programs
and/or treatment consistent with the individual needs; to retain them in said custody; to supervise
them; to maintain proper discipline and control; to make certain that they receive no special
privileges and that the sentence and orders of the committing court in the State are faithfully
executed; provided that nothing herein contained shall be construed to require Fife, or any of its
agents, to provide treatment, facilities or programs for any inmates confined pursuant to this
Agreement, which it does not provide for similar inmates not confined pursuant to this
Agreement.
8. MEDICAL SERVICES
(a) Inmates from Federal Way shall receive such medical, psychiatric and dental
treatment as may be necessary to safeguard their health while housed in the Fife Jail and shall
notify Federal Way prior to any consultation for non-emergency outside services. Fife shall
provide or arrange for the providing of such medical, psychiatric and dental services. Except for
in-house routine minor medical services, Federal Way shall pay directly or reimburse Fife for all
costs associated with the delivery of any emergency and/or major medical service, or pre-
approved non-emergency outside medical and/or dental services provided to Federal Way
inmates; provided that Federal Way has the option to remove inmates, if at Federal Way's
Interlocal Agreement Between City of Fife/City of Federa! Way
3
03/13/2001
discretion, it believes that another jail would be more appropriate for addressing the inmate's
medical needs.
(b) An adequate record of all such services shall be kept by Fife for Federal Way's
review at its request. Any medical or dental services of major consequence shall 'be reported to
Federal Way as soon as time permits.
?
(c) Should medical or dental services require hospitalization, Federal Way agrees to
compensate Fife dollar for dollar any amount expended or cost incurred in providing the same;
provided that, except in emergencies, Federal Way will be notified by contacting Federal Way's
Public Safety Department Watch Commander at (253) 661-4600 prior to the inmate's transfer to
a hospital and nothing herein shall preclude Federal Way from retaking the ill or injured inmates.
9. DISCIPLINE
Fife shall have physical control over and power to execute disciplinary authority over all
Federal Way inmates. However, nothing contained herein shall be construed to authorize or
permit the imposition of a type of discipline prohibited by the Laws of the State of Washington.
10. RECORDS AND REPORTS
Fife shall keep all necessary and pertinent records concerning Federal Way inmates in the
manner mutually agreed upon by the parties hereto. During an inmate's confinement in the Fife
Jail, Federal Way shall upon request be entitled to receive and be furnished with copies of any
report or record associated with said inmate(s) incarceration.
11. REMOVAL FROM THE JAIL
A Federal Way inmate legally confined in the Fife Jail shall not be removed therefrom by
any person without written authorization from Federal Way or by order of any court having
jurisdiction. Fife agrees that no early releases or alternatives to incarceration, including
furloughs, passes, work release, work crews or electronic home detention shall be granted to any
inmate without written authorization from the committing court. This paragraph shall not apply
to an emergency necessitating the immediate removal of the inmate for medical, dental,
psychiatric treatment or other catastrophic condition presenting an eminent danger to the safety
of the inmate or to other inmates or Fife Jail personnel. In the event of any such emergency
removal, Fife shall inform Federal Way of the whereabouts of the inmate or inmates so removed,
at the earliest practicable time, and shall exercise all reasonable care for the safekeeping and
custody of such inmate or inmates.
12. ESCAPES
In the event any Federal Way inmate shall escape from Fife's custody, Fife will use all
reasonable means to recapture the inmate. The escape shall be reported immediately to Federal
Way. Fife shall have the primary responsibility for and authority to direct the pursuit and
retaking of the inmate or inmates within its own territory. Any cost in connections therewith
Interlocal Agreement Between City of Fife/City of Federal Way
4
03/13/2001
shall be chargeable to and bome by Fife; however, Fife shall not be required to expend
unreasonable amounts to pursue and return inmates from other states or other countries.
13. DEATH OF AN INMATE
(a) In the event of the death of a Federal Way inmate, the Pierce County Coroner shall be
notified. Federal Way shall receive copies of any records made at or in connection with such
notification.
(b) Fife shall immediately notify Federal Way of the death of a Federal Way inmate,
fumish information as requested and follow the instructions of Federal Way with regard to the
disposition of the body. The body shall not be released except on written order of the
appropriate officials of Federal Way. Written notice pertaining to the release shall be provided
within three weekdays of receipt by Federal Way of notice of such death. All expenses relative
to any necessary preparation of the body and shipment charges shall be paid by Federal Way.
With Federal Way's consent, Fife may arrange for burial and all matters related or incidental
thereto, and all such expenses shall be paid by Federal Way. The provisions of this paragraph
shall govern only the relations between or among the parties hereto and shall not affect the
liability of any relative or other person for the disposition of the deceased or for any expenses
connected therewith.
(c) Federal Way shall receive a certified copy of the death certificate for any of its
inmates who have died while in Fife's custody.
14. REMOVING OF INMATES
Upon request from Fife, Federal Way shall, at its expense, remove any Federal Way
inmate within (4) hours after receipt of such request. In the event the confinement of any Federal
Way inmate is terminated for any reason, Federal Way shall, at its expense, retake such inmate at
the Fife.
15. GOVERNING LAW
The parties hereto agree that, except where expressly otherwise provided, the laws and
administrative rules and regulations of the State of Washington shall govern in any matter
relating to an inmate(s) confined pursuant to this Agreement.
16. DURATION
This Agreement shall enter into full force and effect from April 2001, specific date to be
determined, and end December 31, 2002, subject to earlier termination as provided by Section 17
herein. This Agreement shall be renewed automatically for likcone year successive periods
under such terms and conditions as the parties may determine. Nothing in this Agreement shall
be construed to require Federal Way to house inmates in the Fife Jail continuously.

17. TERMINATION
(a) By either party. This Agreement may be terminated by written notice from either
party to the other party delivered by regular mail to the contact person identified herein, provided
that termination shall become effective sixty (60) working days after receipt of such notice.
Federal Way agrees to remove any inmate(s) from the Fife Jail by the close of said sixty (60) day
notice period.
(b) By Federal Way due to lack of funding. The obligation of Federal Way to pay Fife
under the provision of this Agreement beyond the close of the current fiscal year (December 31,
2001) is expressly made contingent upon the appropriation, budgeting availability of sufficient
funds by Federal Way. In the event that such funds are not budgeted, appropriated or otherwise
made available for the purpose of payment under this Agreement at any time after December 31,
2001, then Federal Way shall have the option of terminating the Agreement upon written notice
to Fife, except that all services provided to that point shall be compensated at the agreed rate.
The termination of this Agreement for this reason will not cause any penalty to be charged to the
Federal Way.
(c) In the event of termination of this Agreement for any reason, Federal Way shall
compensate Fife for prisoners housed by Fife after notice of such termination until Federal Way
retakes its inmates. Compensation shall be paid in the same manner and at the same rates set
forth under Section 2, just as if this agreement had not been terminated.

19. HOLD HARMLESS AND INDEMNIFICATION
Fife will assume the liability for the custody and care of Federal Way prisoners once they
are in the custody of Fife. Fife shall defend, indemnify and hold Federal Way, its officers,
officials, employees and volunteers harmless from any and all claims, injuries, damages, losses
or suits including reasonable attorney fees, arising out of or in connection with the performance
of this Agreement, except for injuries and damages caused by the sole negligence of Federal

SUMMARY/BACKGROUND: Canada Geese populate the beach at Steel Lake Park and in Celebration Parks wetlands
and sports fields. The geese increase our cost to manage the parks and pose a health and safety risk to the park user. Some of
the most measurable impacts are the increased labor costs to keep the beaches and picnic areas clean, risk to the water quality of
Steel Lake for swimming and pose a threat to the success of the wetland plantings are a few examples.
The most significant tool to manage the Canada Geese population is the Interlocal Agreement for Waterfowl (Canada Goose)
Management Program. Currently 10 city's, including Seattle and Federal Way, Boeing, Seattle Public utilities and the
University of Washington make up the Oversight Committee to monitor this program.
The purpose of this agreement is to provide the joint funding to contract with the Wildlife Services Program of the U.S.
Department of Agriculture (WS) to manage the Canada Geese population within King County. The plan will include an egg
addling program, lethal control, population monitoring and census: mainly of Canada Geese, within King County. The City's
contribution will be limited to $1,550. The term of this Agreement is from January 1,2001 to December 31,2001.
CITY COUNCIL COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION: On March 12, 2001, the Parks, Recreation, Human
Services and Public Safety Council Committee passed a motion authorizing the City to enter into an Interlocal
Agreement for Waterfowl Management Program and forward to full Council on March 20, 2001.

II.
REASON FOR COUNCIL ACTION
FWCC Chapter 22, "Zoning," Article IX, "Process VI Review," establishes a process and criteria
for F~VCC text amendments. Consistent with Process VI review, amendments to the FWCC text
must be approved by the City Council based on a recommendation from the Planning Commission.
III. PLANNING COMMISSION RECOM]VIENDATION
As discussed below in Section V-- Procedural Summary of this staff report and reflected in Exhibit
D - February 2 I, 2001, Planning Commission Minutes, the Planning Commission conducted a
public hearing on the proposed text amendments on February 21, 2001.
The Planning Commission considered the proposed FWCC text amendments (Exhibit ¢) in light of
the decisional criteria outlined below in Section Vlofthis report. By a unanimous vote (7-0), the
Commission recommended that the City Council adopt the Zoning Code text amendments with the
following two changes to be prepared by staff:
1. Provide a definition of Gymnasium.
2. Allow Trade Schools in the City Center Frame (CC-F). The request to allow Trade Schools in the
CC-F was to ensure that the Gene Juarez Beauty School, which is located in that zone, does not
become non-conforming as a result of the code amendment.
In response to the Planning Commission's request, staff made the following changes:
1. Provided the following definition of gymnasium:
A gymnasium is a room or building equipped for gymnastics or sports, which must be
accessory to a school facility. A gymnasium may also be used as an auditorium to hoM
concerts and other performing arts.
The request by the Planning Commission to allow Trade Schools in the CC-F was to ensure that
the Gene Juarez Beauty School, which is located in that zone, does not become non-conforming
as a result of the code amendment. However, the intent of the staff code amendment was to allow
Vocational schools in zones where office uses were allowed and to allow Trade Schools where
more intensive uses were allowed.
Therefore, as an alternative to modifying the code amendment to allow Trade Schools in the CC-
F, staff recommends including beauty schools in the definition of Vocational School. Therefore
the definition of Business or Vocational School would be amended as follows:
Business College or Vocational School shall mean a post-secondary institution that
offers instruction in business principles and practices that will enhance one's ability to
perform in a business setting, i.e., secretarial, accounting, purchasing, computers
programming or usage, or training in fields such as health services, restaurant
management, real estate, beautician training or other professional training or
continuing education.

IV. LAND USE/TRANSPORTATION COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION
It is the City's practice that all land use related items be presented to the LUTC. The LUTC
discussed the Planning Commission's recommendation during a March 5, 2001 public meeting.
During that meeting, the LUTC made a motion to forward the proposed amendments to the full
Council for first reading on March 20, 2001 with the following changes shown as double
underline (additions) and ~ (deletions).
A gymnasium is a room or building equipped for ~'mxartiz: er sports, which must be
accessory to a school facility, health club. social service club such as the Boys and G&ls
Club, or similar facility. A gymnasium may also be used as an auditorium to hold concerts
and other performing arts.
Business College or Vocational School shall mean a post-secondary institution that offers
instruction in business principles and practices that will enhance one's ability to perform in
a business setting, i.e., secretarial, accounting, purchasing, computers programming or
usage, or training in.fields such as health services, restaurant management, real estate,
beautician training or ether professional training or continuing education in these or similar
professions.
Trade (or vocationaO school shall mean a post-secondary institution that trains persons for
qualification in specific trades or occupations, i.e., mechanics; construction trades such as
carpentry, HVAC, and wiring; electronics repair and service including computers;
plumbing; chefs and culinary training; upholstery;_ bartending; etc.
In addition, language is proposed to be added in all zones where there are special height
provisions for structures less than 100 feet from an adjacent residential zone to clarify that only
that portion of the structure within 100 feet, and not the entire structure would be affected, e.g.,
please refer to FWCC, Section 22-674(7)(a).
Finally, the LUTC requested that language be added to the Use Zone Charts to address potential
view blockage that may be associated with increased heights of structures, e.g., please refer to
FWCC, Section 22-639(10) which states "For any structure including gyms, an increase in
height above 30' shall not block views designated by the comprehensive plan."

Amendments to Federal Way City Code OvWCC), Chapter Relating to Allowed
Maximum Heights and other Miscellaneous Changes
A. BACKGROUND
As part of its regular review of development regulations, Staff has identified the need to
amend the text of Federal Way City Code (FWCC), Section 22 to address a number of code
items related to definitions of various types of schools, clarification of where various types
of schools should be located, maximum allowable height of schools, and parking
requirements for churches. When preparing the amendments, staff also found there was a
need to modify the Use Zone Cha_¢ts to ensure consistency in height requirements in the
Multifamily Residential Zones. Please refer to attached Staff Report for a discussion of each
issue.
PROPOSAL
The Planning Commission conducted a public hearing on February 21, 2001. There were two
requests of staff. One was to provide a definition of Gymnasium and the other was to allow Trade
Schools in the City Center Frame (CC-F). The request to allow Trade Schools in the CC-F was to
ensure that the Gene Juarez Beauty School, which is located in that zone, does not become non-
conforming as a result of the code amendment. The intent of the staff code amendment was to allow
Vocational schools in zones where office uses were allowed and to allow Trade Schools where more
intensive uses were allowed.
Therefore, as an alternative to allowing Trade Schools in the CC-F, Staffwould like to recommend
including beauty schools in the definition of Vocational School. Therefore the definition of
Business or Vocational School would be as follows:
Business Co!!e£e or Vocational School shall mean a post-secondary institution that offers
instruction in business principles and practices that will enhance one's ability to perform
in a business setting, i.e., secretarial, accounting, purchasing, computers programming or
usage, or training in fields such as health services, restaurant management, real estate,
beautician training or other professional mining or continuing education.
P^GE .OF
In response to a definition for Gymnasium, the following is recommended:
A gymnasium is a room or building equipped for gymnastics or sports, which must be accessory
to a school facility. A gymnasium may also be used as an auditorium to hold concerts and other
performing arts.
C. RECOMMENDATION
The Planning Commission recommends adoption of the proposed FWCC text amendments as
presented by staffwith the two changes described in B above. Please note that staff has
recommended a change to the definition of Vocational School to address Planning
Commission's concerns of the Gene Juarez School in lieu of allowing Trade Schools in the
CC-F zone.

STAFF REPORT TO THE PLANNING COMMISSION
Allowed Maximum Heights and Other Miscellaneous Changes
Federal Way City Code (FWCC), Amendments
Planning Commission Meeting of February 21, 2001
BACKGROUND
As part of its regular review of development regulations, Staffhas identified the need to
amend the text of Federal Way City Code (FWCC), Section 22 to address the following:
1. Modify the definition for Business or Vocationa! School, Trade School, and School, and
clarify in which zones they would be allowed in.
2. Modify the Use Zone Charts to allow for schools in the Office Park Zone.
3. Allow for increased heights for School Gyms and other school-related structures.
4. Modify the Use Zone Charts to ensure consistency in height requirements in the
Multifamily Residential Zones.
5. Modify parking requirements for churches to address the wide range of uses associated
with churches.
The proposed amendments have been prepared in "line-in/line-out" format, with s~[kecu~
(proposed deletions) and underline (proposed additions) indicated.
II DISCUSSION OF PROPOSED CODE AMENDMENTS
A. Definition for Business or Vocational School, Trade School, and School, and clarification
of which zones they would be allowed in.
The School District has identified a need to prepare high school students nearing graduation for
jobs considered vocational, business-related, or trade in nature. Presently, the definition of
School addresses only instruction in the several branches of learning and study required by the
Basic Education Code of the State of Washington. Therefore, an amendment is being proposed
to widen the definition of school (Exhibit ~1) to address the needs of the district.
When the existing definitions were being reviewed, staff realized that there were
inconsistencies in the existing definitions of Business College, Vocational School, and Trade
School. Therefore, staff has recommended some amendments to address these inconsistencies
(Exhibit A). There were also inconsistencies in which zones various types of schools could be
allowed. In order to address this, the Use Zone Charts are being proposed to be changed as
follows:
EX , C_
PAG
Zone School Business School Trade School Vocational School College University
SE X
RS X
RM X
PO X
BN X
BC X X Add X Add X Add
CC-C X X X-Delete X Add
CC-F X X iX-Delete X Add
OP X X X X
BP X X-Delete
Staff recommends that Trade Schools no longer be allowed in the City Center Core (CC-C) and
City Center Frame (CC-F) zones due to their nature (Exhibit,4) but that they are allowed in the
Community Business (BC) zone. We also recommend that Vocational Schools be allowed in
the BC, CC-C, and CC-F zones, but delete them from the BP zone. Also, that Business Schools
be allowed in the BC zone.
B. Modify the Use Zone Charts to allow for schools in the Office Park Zone
Presently, schools are allowed in all zoning districts except Professional Office (PO), Office
Park (OP), and Business Park (BP). Panther Lake Elementary School is presently located in the
OP zone as a legal nonconforming use. This makes it difficult for Panther Lake to substantially
expand or make substantial improvements without complying with the provisions of FWCC,
Article IV, "Nonconformance." Allowing schools in the OP zone is not in conflict with any
City goal or policy and would allow the continued existence of Panther Lake as a legally
allowed use.
C. Allow for increased heights for School Gyms and other school-related structures
Do
As part of normal review of the zoning code, staff has realized that existing provisions would
not allow construction of a school gym without obtaining a variance to the height provisions of
the code. In the majority of the zoning districts, the maximum height for schools is presently
30-35 feet. However, information from representatives of the Federal Way School District
shows that gyms need to be taller than 30-35 feet to allow for activities. In addition, other
school related structures, if built today to existing City design standards, would need to exceed
30-35 feet. Staff is therefore recommending increased heights for gyms and'Other school-
related structures based on separation standards from adjacent residential zones and increased
setbacks for increased heights. Please refer to Exhibit B--Use Zone Charts.
Modify the Use Zone Charts to ensure consistency in height requirements in the
Multifamily Residential Zones
When the Use Zone Charts were being amended to address the recommendations for increased
heights for schools, Staff realized that there were existing conflicts in the Multifamily (RM)
zone relating to allowed heights of structures in the RM 1.8 zone (Multifamily -- Minimum Lot
Area per unit of 1,800 square feet) when adjoining a Iow density zone. For example, please
refer to Section 22-67d of Exhibit B. Under the Height Structure column, the allowable height
is 30 feet above average building elevation, but under Special Regulations andNotes, the
Planning Commission Staff Report Page 2 Height & Other Miscellaneous Amendments
PAG
maximum height is 15 feet. Amendments are being proposed to make these requirements
consistent in each Use Zone Chart where a conflict was identified. An amendment is also being
proposed for the definition of Adjoining for clarification purposes (Exhibit
Modify parking requirements for churches to address the wide range of uses associated
with churches
Presently, the Use Zone Charts of the FWcc require that churches provide one parking space
for every five people based on the maximum occupancy load in the principle worship area.
During review of development applications for churches, Staff has determined that this may not
result in an adequate number of parking spaces for a church because it has become more
common for churches to have a variety of accessory uses such as day care and schools.
Therefore, staff is recommendi, ng that required parking spaces be based on a Transportation
Management Plan (TMP); which would allow eachchurch to provide adequate parking based
on the activities to be conducted on-site. Please refer to Exhibit B.
III REASON FOR PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION
FWCC Chapter 22, Zoning, Article IX, Process VIReview, establishes a process and criteria for
zoning code text amendments. Consistent with Process VI review, the role of the Planning
Commission is as follows:

ADMINISTRATIVE REPORT
Ms. McClung reminded the Commissioners of the Volunteer Dinner to be held this Friday, February 23,
2001. The city has received new city codes and each commissioner has been given a copy. Ms. McClung
requested the commissioners recycle their old codes. She announced that Greg Fewins has been
promoted to Deputy Director and the city is considering a second Deputy Director for the department
who would concentrate on economic development.
COMMISSION BUSINESS
Public Hearing - Allowed Maximum Heights & Other Miscellaneous Code Amendments
Chairwoman Kirkpatrick opened the Public Hearing. Ms. Clark gave the staff report. The proposed
amendments consist of: 1) a definition for business or vocational school, trade school, and school, and
clarification of which zones they would be allowed in; 2) modifying the use zone charts to allow for
schools in the Office Park zone; 3) allowing for increased heights for school gyms and other school-
related structures; 4) modifying the use zone charts to ensure consistency in height requirements in the
Multifamily Residential Zones; and 5) modifying parking requirements for churches to address the wide
range of uses associated with churches. Ms. Clark went over the specifics of the proposed amendments
and provided the cotnmission with copies of her overheads.
Pursuant to the State Environ,nental Policy Act (SEPA), a Determination of Nonsignificance for this
proposal was issued on February 3, 2001. The comment period ended February 19, 2001. One comment
was received from Jeff Green of the Federal Way School District and was incorporated into the,p~posed
amendments. EXHIBIT
PAGE_
Planning Commission Page 2 February 21, 2001
The commission inquired if a business that does a lot of training fall into the trade school definition. Ms.
Clark replied that the city would research whether the training is an accessory to the main use (business).
The code does allow for accessory uses, and in such a case, the business would not be defined as a trade
school.
The commission discussed the Transportation Management Plan (TMP) proposed to be required of
churches for parking. Concerns were raised over whether it would decrease the number of parking spaces
and if it would add substantially to the cost of a permit. Ms. Clark responded that a TMP could decrease
the number of required parking spaces. TMP's are tailored to each individual project. It is conceivable
that one church with a lot of uses (Sunday worship, meetings throughout the week, a school, etc.) may
require more parking spaces than the current code states, and other with only Sunday worship may
require fewer. A TMP could increase the cost of a larger project, but for a small project, it could be as
simple as a paragraph or two.
Concern was expressed over the Gene Juarez Beauty School that is located in the City Center Frame
(CC-F) zoning district. Which school definition would it fall under? If it is a Trade School, which seems
the most likely definition, the proposed amendments will make it nonconforming. The commission does
not like the idea of creating a nonconforming use. Staff will research this issue.
There was no Public Testimony. Chairwoman Kirkpatrick closed the Public Hearing.
It was m/s/c (no nays) to add Trade Schools back to the CC-F zone. There was no discussion. It was
m/s/c (no nays) to adopt the staff recommendation as modified. There was no discussion.
Public Hearing - Mega-Churches Code Amendments
Commissioner Lopes excused herself from this portion of the meeting due to a possible conflict of
interest.
Chairwoman Kirkpatrick opened the Public Hearing. Consultant Rick Sepler presented the staff report.
The proposed amendments add a definition for mega-church, update the definition of church, and add
mega-churches to the Business Park (BP) zone. Since the Staff Report was sent to the Planning
Commission, staff changed the definition of mega-church to a seating capacity of 1,000, instead of 2,000.
Furthermore, addition letters were received. These have been given to the commissioners at this meeting.
Mr. Sepler asked the commission to keep in mind that the scope of this amendment is citywide, not
property specific. Because the proposed amendments would affect the potential Christian Faith Center
(CFC) project, many of the letters (and most likely, much of the testimony) speak to this potential
project. The commission is asked to consider CFC only as an example.
Pursuant to the State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA), a Determination of Nonsignificance for this
proposal was issued on February 3,2001. The comment period ended February 19, 2001. Numerous
letters were received. They express their concerns and support of the potential CFC project. They express
concern over water quality and wetlands. And they inquire if the city is considering the King County
concerns over mega-churches in rural areas.
Chairwoman Kirkpatrick opened the Public Testimony.

Page 3 February 21,2001
Peter Orser, Quadrant, PO Box 130, Bellevue - He commented that it is important to hear
about a specific site in order to get an idea of what people propose. He supports the
amendment. Churches bring a sense of community and are good neighbors. Traffic would not
be too big of a problem because the church traffic would occur at different days and time then
commuter traffic.
Gil Hulsman, 1001 Shaw Road, Puyallup- He is with Abby Road Development, which is
working on the potential CFC project. He provided the commission with a conceptual master
plan and conceptual elevations for the potential CFC project. He stated that the site is 50 acres,
but that does not tell the whole story. Much of the site would be dedicated to roads, wetlands,
buffers, landscaping, sport fields, etc. Only some 45 percent of the site would be buildings and
parking (i.e. impervious surface), He remarked that the buildings would be designed similar to
office buildings. He asked the commission to keep in mind what churches look like today, and
to consider how the contribute to the quality of life.
Greg Heath, 2214 Tacoma Road, Puyallup - He is the principle traffic engineer for the
potential CFC project. He stated that Federal Way would require a traffic analysis and
mitigation. Traffic would be different than that from a business. The potential private school
would have larger trip generation, but that can be mitigated. A business use leads to the largest
amount of traffic.
Morgan Llewellyn, PO Box 902, Kent - He is the real estate broker for CFC and supports the
amendment. He commented that one of the aspects he considered when looking for a new site
for CFC was where do the people who attend the church live? Most of them live in Federal
Way. He stated that the recent Market Study conducted by the city showed that there is a lot of
BP land in the area. Federal Way has a 20-year supply, and there is also a lot available in
nearby areas, such as the Kent valley. Because of this, the property in question is not being
utilized. He remarked that the church is reaching out to the community to address their
concerns and issues (they recently met with the Friends of the Hylebos). This is a project
Federal Way could be prOud of.
Wayne Rankin, 21024 24'hAvenue South, Seattle - He is the CFC financial officer. He stated
that the sanctuary would be open to many uses. This would be a safe place for children and
youth. The site would house CFC corporate offices and a public bookstore and caf&
Sandra Corronza, 4161 A~gusta Drive - She commented that the benefits of a private
Christian school include: 1) parents move kids to private schools when they don't do well in
public schools; 2) it would provide numerous community service hours; 3) it would draw new
people to the area; 4) it would use existing businesses; 5) the level of commitment of parents
and teachers produces outstanding students; 6) it would provide public uses; and 7) the early
childhood development program would be a safe place for parents to leave younger children.
Molly Venske, 21024 24'h Avenue South, Seattle - She is the creative arts director at CFC and
supports the amendment. CFC would provide drama, music, dance, and television for the
church and community. They offer acting classes and camps and family theater.

Page 4 February 21, 2001
Ray Anderson, 23014 West Edwards - He is a CFC elder who is looking to move to this area
and supports the amendment. He is a marriage counselor who focuses on improving
communication and feels it would be a benefit to the community to be able to offer this service
in Federal Way.
Tom Henderson, 147 South 294'n Place - He is a contractor and CFC member who supports the
amendment. He stated that this is an opportunity to use empty land, provide jobs, and provide
Support for existing businesses.
Rob Scott, 1900 SW Campus Drive - He is a CFC youth worker who supports the amendment.
He commented that church can be a positive influence on young people by teaching them good
values. CFC draws youth from all over the area, not just their school.
'Margaret Nelson, 32904 4'h Avenue SW- She opposes the amendment. One purpose of the BP
zoning is to provide a place for taxable businesses. Business taxes helps t? lower private
property tax. The city has only about 115 acres of open BP land left. She noted that the chart in
the staff report that addresses taxes does not include increases over time. She questioned why a
church school would be allowed in the BP zone, but not public school.
Ida Pressnall, 35530 52~a South, Auburn - She lives on the West Hill of Auburn and opposes
the amendment. She stated that more people would have been at the meeting if there had been
better advertising. She commented that the traffic in the area is a mess, and soon there will be a
new high school and junior high school in the area generating even more traffic. She objects to
the tax base being lost and that the potential CFC project would take of the remaining BP land.
Raymond Lawrence, 4314 SW 32ffn Place - He supports the amendment. He commented that
he has teenagers and the CFC would provide positive role models for them. Churches provide
positive role models and would be positive to the community.
Brooke Scheib, 20718 9tn Avenue South - She suPports the a~endment. She stated that as a
school counselor, she knows we need resources for families. CFC represents some 50 nations.
These people would be part of the community. The church would help families and young
people. She commented that it doesn't matter where you build, there will always be traffic
problems. We need to look at the larger picture of helping people.
Garet Munger, Terra Associates, 12525 Willows Road, Kirkland- He is the CFC wetland
consultant and supports the amendment. He showed the commission an aerial photo of the site
and indicated the three wetlands on the property. He stated that the site also has tributaries to
the Hylebos. He commented that any project would have to address the wetland issues. CFC
would have to meet all city regulations and provide mitigation as needed. Their current
proposal would create some 6,000 square feet of new wetland.
Loretta Morgan, 3202 45'h Avenue NE, Tacoma - She has lived in the neighborhood nine years
and opposes the amendment. She requested the commission delay their decision because only a
few members of the community are here because they only recently heard of the meeting. She
cOmmented that BP zones are located in the most highly congested areas of Federal Way
(mega anything would have serious impacts). She has sent the city an e-mail (a copy was
provided to the commission)stating her concerns and requested tl~y~l~i~ll~d it.~
PAG
Planning Commission Page 5 February 21,2001
She feels the decisional criteria do not support the proposal, specifically, this proposal would
not preserve and protect Federal Way's single-family neighborhoods and it would not protect
residential areas from impacts of adjacent non-residential areas.
Tom Frostad, 2100 South 336'n, R2 - He lives across from the potential CFC site. He stated
that the project would adversely affect traffic on 3362. The city already has too much traffic
and many four-lane roads. The city should save BP land for tax-based businesses. He
commented that the church does not meet the decisional criteria, specifically; it would not
protect residential areas from impacts of adjacent non-residential areas. He supports the
church, but not in that location.
Elizabeth Kari, 2012 South 3 31s' Street - She opposes the amendment. She commented that we
should not kid ourselves. The city says this amendment is not project specific, but Federal Way
does not have an outstanding need for a mega-church, and if it weren't for CFC, this
amendment would not be happening. She stated that a mega-church is not intended to serve a
community; it is a destination. She also feels that the amendment does not meet the decisional
criteria. It would generate a lot of traffic on Saturday and Sunday. She con~mented that the
neighborhoods property values would decline and they would be limited in the enjoyment of
their property. The city should consider the needs of the neighborhood.
Walt Linburg, 31431 8tn Avenue South - He has lived here for many years and opposes the
amendment. The amendment would cause an increase in traffic. It would remove large
amounts of taxable property. It would be an additional burden on fire and police protection,
with no taxes generated for this service. For a city in need of revenue, it doesn't make sense to
remove a taxable source.
Glenn Sawyer, 2005 South 331s' Street - He opposes the amendment. He feels it violates the
mission statement of the Department of Community Development Services, which states in
part, "...to help maintain and improve the quality of life in Federal Way by managing and'
fostering the safe, orderly and beneficial development and implementation of land use,
building construction, code enforcement, neighborhood development and human services
programs..." He asked, "What good is a comp plan if you keep bending the rules'/" He
commented that on one side of him, a radio station with 10 employees is being told to leave,
but on the other we are planning a large church. It would add pollution to Hylebos creek by
runoff from the roads and parking lot. He also commented that there is not enough
infrastructure to support the traffic and it would add to the noise.
Martin Durkan, 330 SW 43~a Street, Renton - He supports the amendment. He commented that
there is a resurgence of all types of religion in the US, and churches are having problems
finding enough urban land. The issues raised tonight are all valuable and he asked people to
remember that this is just the beginning ora long process. He stated that if you can't mitigate,
you can't build. He also stated that public schools are located in areas where private schools
are not allowed.
Rick BrasSfield, 1639 South MO'n, Suites A & B - He stated that he is in agreement with much
of what the City Council has done over the years. He has been a business owner in the area for
20 years. He feels a church would bring more people in and increase business. He stated that
there is a lot of space in Federal Way that can be used.

Marv Smith, 1039 South 310'~, Suites A & B - He has lived and owned a business in Federal
Way for 24 years. He commented that traffic seems to be a moot point because both a church
and a business would bring increased traffic. It seems a church would have more open space
(i.e. a ballfield). He feels it would bring in business.
Maxine Ranta, 29829 8'h Avenue SW- She stated that we are not here to decide if CFC would
be a good neighbor. Traffic is a concern. A school with a church is not an accessory use. It
would be busy all the time.
Chairwoman Kirkpatrick closed the Public Testimony.
Phil Olbrechts noted that currently, a mega-church could locate anywhere a church or school is allowed.
This amendment would limit them to the BP zone. He remarked that in other s~tes, the courts have said
that jurisdictions cannot deny a church because it won't be taxed. Given the climate in this state, he feels
it is likely that should the issue go to trial here, the courts would rule the same. He reiterated that while
the public is welcome to comment on potential projects, this is a citywide amendment and the
commission needs to consider the city as a whole, not a particular project.
The commission had numerous questions and concerns. One concern was allowing a private school in a
zone where public schools are not allowed. Staff commented that a school could be allowed as an
accessory use to a church. The commission also expressed concern over traffic. Rick Perez commented
that any development would have to provide a traffic study that would determine what improvements
would need to be done to mitigate the traffic. Such improvement would probably consist of at least ~
street improvements, including curb, gutter, sidewalk, and street trees.
It was m/s/c to continue the Public Hearing to March 7, 2001, at 7:00 p.m. in the City Hall Council
Chambers. It was m/s/c to extend the meeting for 10 minutes.
To address their concerns, the commission has requested staffto prepare the following analysis and
locate the folloWing materials:
Determine ifa study is available which documents the "spin off' economic benefits for a
community from a mega church. Redmond, Washington and other jurisdictions with
experience in this area should be contacted.
2. Determine the number of employees that a typical mega church would employ on-site.
Prepare a comparison matrix which summarizes the differences and similarities (bulk,
dimensional, coverage, parking, trip generation, etc.) and relative impacts of typical uses
occurring within a Business Park (BP) zoning district and the potential establishment of a
mega church in the same designation.
4. Provide an illustrative map that identifies vacant parcels located within the BP zoning
districts. The map should als~ identify vacant 50-acre sites located in other zoning districts
that currently allow for churches.

ATTACHMENTS: February 22, 2001 Memorandum from City Attorney Bob C. Sterbank to Finance,
Economic Development and Regional Affairs Committee, Draft Ordinance Amending Ordinance 99-359,
and Draft Site Lease Agreement.
SUMMARY/BACKGROUND: Sprint Spectrum previously received City Council approval to lease
City property for purposes of installation ora wirele~acility on and beneath a BPA Tower located
adjacent to 14~ Way SW. Sprint also previously rec~i~ed a franchise from the City Council, in Ordinance
No. 99-359, to install conduit containing power and fiber optic cabling within the City rights-of-way at S.
320t~ Street, and the intersection of S. 324th Street and SR 99, to connect other Sprint wireless antennae on
BPA towers to the power system and switched telephone network. When Sprint received its site lease
approval for the BPA tower installation adjacent to 14th Way SW, it did not request or receive approval to
install power/fiber conduit along the BPA corridor or within 12~ Avenue SW necessary to connect the
wireless antennae to the ~ower system and telephone network. Spriht has requested such authorization,
which requires minor amendments to the site lease and franchise ordinance, and submission of additional
drawings depicting the new installation.
CITY COUNCIL COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION: The Finance, Economic Development and Regional
Affairs Committee voted on February 28, 2001 to forward the proposed franchise and site lease amendments to full
Council with a "do pass" recommendation.
CITY MANAGER RECOMMENDATION: Motion to forward Ordinance amending Ordinance No. 99-359 and
Amended Site Lease to second reading.
