CITIZEN COMMENT
Dietrick Jones thanked the Council for approving use of Fishers Bog property and sought
volunteers to assist the Federal Way Historical Society.
Martin Barnes spoke in opposition to the proposed Pacific Place Condominiums~ King County
Building Permit #B97CO270. This property is near the proposed area of annexation -
Applewood.
Harry Horan spoke of his general support of the nonconformance code amendments. He did,
however, express concern relative to changes of use. He felt compliance will be next to
impossible for some.
Alison Corrigan spoke on the unallocated utility tax funds. The Chamber of Commerce, through
Alison, expressed its appreciation for the investment in the downtown revitalization program.
They are, however, concerned with the recent allocations to further fund the Knutzen Family
Theatre and Celebration park. They have urged the Council to place the remaining unallocated
funds into the downtown revitalization program.
Dan Casey spoke extensively on the proposed nonconformance code amendments. Two areas of
concern are the frontage improvement section and the water quality section. He proposed his
own changes to the code for Council's consideration.

Novemb,." 1997 Monthly Financial Report
INTRODUCTION
1e Monthly Financial Report (MFR) is intended to provide an overview of financial activity that have taken place in the
.¿porting period. This report focuses mainly on activity incurred in the following operating funds: General, Street, Arterial
Street, Solid Waste, Snow and Ice Removal,
Paths & Trail, Surface Water Management,
Strategic Reserve, Airport Strategic Reserve, Debt
Service, and Dumas Bay Centre. There is a
synopsis of the City's Capital Improvement Funds
on pages 14 through 16. The Summary of
Sources and Uses (Attachment A) captures
financial activity through November for the years
1993 through 1997.

Overall, operating revenues ($31,047,915) are
exceeding the adopted monthly budget
($29,714,411) as of November, 1997, and
operating expenditures ($24,510,037) are below
I the adopted monthly budget through November
! ($26,099,782). This results in the City's operating
I funds having a projected increase in fund balance
of $2,923,249 as of November 1997. The savings are a result of $1,333,504 in additional revenue mainly due to Utility
Taxes, Real Estate Excise Taxes, Criminal Justice Sales Tax, and State Shared Revenue activity and projected
expenditure savings due to Public Safety, Public Works, Community Development Services, and Parks and Recreation.
Total General Governmental projected savings is $1,411,610 of which $521,862 is in the Public Safety Department due
"'Irimarily to the hiring delay earlier in the year and internal service fund savings. The Parks and Recreation Department's
vings of $297,177 is due in part to the delay of hiring seasonal maintenance workers. The Snow and Ice Fund has
exceeded its adopted monthly budget ($42,369) by $13,923 due to the storms that occurred at the end of 1996 and
beginning of 1997. The adopted monthly budget is one half of the total budget for the first six months with the assumption
that storms occur during the first and last part of the year. Due to the fact that this fund may be overexpended by the end
of the year, the budget was increased by $30,000 in the Mid-biennium Budget Adjustment. Table A identifies the adopted,
revised, and actual fund balance as of November, 1997:

November 1997 Monthly Financial Report
Overall, operating revenues collected through
November total $31,047,915 which is $1,333,504
or 4.5% above the historical monthly budget
($29,714,411). Operating revenues have grown
$3,543,251 or 12.9% compared with activity
through November 1996 ($27,504,664) due
primarily to the addition of a utility tax which was
not effective until the later part of February, 1996,
as well as a rate increase in March, 1997.
Criminal Justice Sales Tax and Dumas Bay
revenues are exceeding 1996 revenues, as well as
the revenue being collected by our new Police
Department (ie: money/property seizures, mall security, licenses and permits). Real estate excise tax as well as State-
Shared Revenues continues to outperform our current year estimates. Finally, Recreation Fees lag by $6,595 or 1.7%.
This shortfall can be attributed to the late distribution of the activities brochure. We will continue to monitor all revenue
sources and report all variances from our estimates. The following describes some of the major revenue sources and the
variances that we are reporting through November 1997.
REVENUES

Sales tax payments received for October total $687,585 which is below the projected budget ($688,847) by $1,262 or .
.2%. Compared to 1996 October, sales tax revenues have increased $20,834 or 3.1 %. Yea r-to-date , sales tax revenues.
total $6,887,819 which is $9,747 above the monthly historical estimate ($6,878,072). Included in the January sales tax
revenues was $16,187 for a major retailer that should have been recorded in December. Considering this correction,
sales tax revenues through October would have been $6,871,632 or $6,440 below the adopted estimate. Government,
which comprised 1.4% of our total sales tax collections through October, has increased $30,878 or 44.9% from 1996,
which was due to a correction that was reported in January, 1996. The services and contracting components have also
experienced growth. The 7.8% increase in services is attributable to an increase in activity for automotive repair shops
and smaller business and personal activity. Construction activity has also increased significantly, which is further reflected
in the City's building permit trends for 1997. However, these gains are offset by a slowdown in wholesaling activity, which
has decreased $146,323 or 27.5%, due primarily to Lucent Technology's one-time large distribution in April 1996.
Retailing activity increased $91,130 or 2.1 %. When considering the correction in January, retailing activity instead
increased $58,756.
Real estate excise taxes through November, 1997 were $1,713,697 and are continuing to exceed projections of $998,323
by $715,374 or 71.7%. Compared to year-to-date through November, 1996 ($1,378,825), they have increased $334,872
or 24.3%. We have not received any detailed information from King County regarding the November distribution, but will
continue to monitor this revenue source.
Building Permits and Related Fees are also exceeding budgetary projections. Through November, we have received
$687,291 which is $7,596 or 1.1% above the adopted estimates ($679,695). These fees are exceeding or meeting all
previous years revenues including 1992 (which was previously our highest year). In addition, this revenue source is
recovering 37.0% of the Community Development operating budget, which exceeds the budgetary recovery rate of 35.7%.
EXPENDITURES
The City has expended $24,510,037 through November, which is below the monthly historical adopted budget of'
$26,099,782 by $1,589,745 or 6.1%, due mainly to savings in the Public Safety, Public Works, Parks and Recreation and
Community Development.

Public Safety has expended $9,521,749 which
is $521,862 or 5.6% below the monthly
adopted budget estimate. The projected
savings are due mainly to the delay of hiring
police officers, savings in the internal service
funds and lack of historical information for our
new Police Department.

PARKS and Recreation are below monthly
adopted budget estimates ($2,694,408) by
$297,177. The savings consists of lower than
anticipated expenditures in Recreation
($201,409) and Parks Maintenance ($95,767).
The projected expenditure savings are due
primarily to the delay of hiring seasonal
maintenance workers. Compared with 1996
activities, expenditures have decreased
$613,361, which would reflect the reductions
that occurred in the Parks and Recreation
department during the 1997 budget process.
In addition, it is anticipated that the Arts
Commission will again carry forward a portion
of its budget for reappropriation in 1998. At
year-end, an estimated savings of $100,000 is
expected by the department.
I. B.qEU kJLB I
,he Solid Waste Division will request a carry forward of over $52.000 in grant funding to be allocated to multi-family
recycling program expansion and other projects for 1998 and 1999. This carry forward will offset the $64,685 variance
through November, when combined with expenditures from the Fall Compost Bin Distribution and the Fall Yard Waste
Calendar production and distribution, which will be recorded as December expenditures.
The Asphalt Overlay Program has incurred expenses of $1,602,556 or 77% of it's appropriated budget ($2,091,661) for
1997. The budget includes $362,189 carried forward from the 1996 Overlay Program due to savings in construction and
administration. 1997 Overlay Program: The City Council approved the overlay streets list at the 3/4/97 meeting. Bids
were opened 5/13/97 and Lakeside Industries, the low bidder of $1,597,988, was awarded the project at the 5/20/97
Council Meeting. The contractor has completed all work on the contract. The contract will be presented at the January
1998 Council Meeting for final acceptance.
CONCLUSION
In summary, the overall operating revenues for November are exceeding the projected monthly budget, with Real Estate
Excise Tax and utility tax exceeding budgetary projections. Building permit fees are also exceeding monthly budget
estimates. The overall operating expenditures are below estimates at this time, with Management Services, Public Safety,
Public Works, Community Development and Parks and Recreation under projections and Civil Legal Services, and Snow
and Ice Removal exceeding projections. It is anticipated that all these departments will meet their budget projections as
the year progresses.

estimate ($6,878,072).

Compared to 1996 October sales tax, revenues have increased $20,834 or 3.1 %. It is estimated that the
sluggish sales during the first two months of the year are due to the snow storm that occurred around the
holiday season, when many of the post-holiday sales occur.

Retailing activity has increased by $58,756 or 1.3% compared to 1996 activities when considering the
$16,187 change due to a major retailing reporting December receipts in January. In addition, the City has
experienced reduced revenues from the closure of K-Mart, Olympic Sports, Home Express and Best. It is
anticipated these lost revenues will be recognized by increased sales in other businesses.
The services and contracting components have all experienced growth. The 7.8% increase in services is
attributable to an increase in activity for automotive repair shops and smaller business and personal service
activity. Construction activity has also increased significantly, which is further reflected in the City's building
permit trends for 1997.
Wholesaling related activity has decreased $146,323 or 27.5% due primarily to Lucent Technologies, which
reported a large one-time project in 1996. The other decreases are due to the loss of Reinhold Petroleum
which in 1996 consolidated its corporate headquarters and warehouse activities to Kent and Curtin Matheson
relocating its business.

City of Federal Way
November 1997 Monthly Financial Report
Government related activity have increased $30,878 or 44.9% due to a correction of approximately $17,000
that occurred in January, 1996.
Iœb..I
Table 3 details, through
October, comparative sales
tax activity between 1991 and
1997 segregated by various
retail centers including the
SeaTac Mall, S 348th retail
center and the Pavilion retail
center. The City's largest
retail center, S 348th retail
center which generates over
16% of the City's sales tax
has experienced growth of
$144,586 or 14.2% in taxable
retail activity as compared
with 1996. The SeaTac Mall
experienced a slight increase
in taxable retail sales for the
month of October. Compared
with 1996, sales tax
collections have increased
$1,514 or .2%. After moderate growth between 1991 and 1994, taxable retail sales activity at the mall has
steadily slowed since 1994. The Pavillion Center has experienced an increase in sales tax collections of
$14,683. Hotels & Motels activity have increased compared to 1996 due mainly to a correction in 1996 and
the difference in timing of returns. We will continue to monitor and follow-up on the reporting of sales tax
revenue for this business.

Graph 7 and Table 4 illustrate collection history for the 1st and 2nd % percent real estate excise taxes. The
table and graph both reflect the cyclical variation in this revenue source. During November, REET revenues
exceeded the adopted budget by $103,551 or 121.2%. The monthly budget estimates are based on historical
REET revenues received since incorporation in 1990 through 1996, a seven year period. Even with this
slight refinement, monthly estimates are vulnerable to certain fundamental economic changes which do not

Utility Taxes
Table 8 summarizes utility tax revenue collections. Through October utility tax collections total $3,023,003
which is $404,235 or 15.4% above the monthly budget estimate ($2,618,768). This reflects the 5.0% rate
which was effective 3/1/97. Since we only had this revenue source for one year, it is difficult to project the
monthly estimates.

GENERAL FUND
District Court Activity
District Court filing fees for 1997 are $18.71 for each traffic infraction and $67.56 for all citations filed. In cases
where bail or penalty is paid or forfeited, the filing fee is reduced to $3.00.
Through November, fines &
forfeiture collections total
$583,118 which is $9,796 or
1.7% below the monthly
estimated revenue
($592,914). However. this
revenue shortfall is offset with
expenditure savings which are
the result primarily of lower than anticipated court activity and contract attorney for Domestic Violence not
coming on board until June/July 1997. Overall, Criminal legal Service expenditures total $678,172 which is
$36,667 or 5.1 % below the monthly estimated budget ($714.839).
Graph 9 compares district
court expenditures and
number of cases filed through

1.
The Proposal is consistent with the following Comprehensive Plan goals

innovation and flexibility in the design of new single family
developments and in-fill.
LUP19 Consider special development techniques (e.g. accessory
dwelling units, zero lot lines, lot size averaging, and planned unit
developments) in single family areas provided they result in
residential development consistent with the quality and character of
existing neighborhoods.
I PAGE 3
ORD#
LUP20 Preserve site characteristics that enhance residential
development (trees, watercourses, vistas, and similar features) using
site planning techniques such as clustering, planned unit
developments, and lot size averaging.
HP14 Amend development regulations to encourage superior
design and a greater diversity of housing types and costs through
such techniques as incentives, inclusionary zoning, planned unit
developments, density bonuses, and transfer of development rights.
HP15 Consider zero lot line standards within planned unit
developments to create higher density single family neighborhoods
with large open space areas.

design and development of new residential subdivisions; and
3.
The Federal Way SEPA responsible official has issued a Declaration of
Nonsignificance on April 27, 1997; and

Section 2. Conclusions. Pursuant to FWCC Section 22-217 and based upon
the Findings set forth in Section 1, the Federal Way City Council makes the following
Conclusions of Law with respect to the decisional criteria necessary for the adoption of
the Proposal:
1.
The Proposal is consistent with the following Comprehensive Plan goals
and policies:
LUP16 Revise existing land use regulations to provide for
innovation and flexibility in the design of new single family
developments and in-fill.
LUP19 Consider special development techniques (e.g. accessory
dwelling units, zero lot lines, lot size averaging, and planned unit
ORD#
, PAGE 3
developments) in single family areas provided they result in
residential development consistent with the quality and character of
existing neighborhoods.
LUP20 Preserve site characteristics that enhance residential
development (trees, watercourses, vistas, and similar feqtures) using
site planning techniques such as clustering, planned unit
developments, and lot size averaging.
HP14 Amend development regulations to encourage superior
design and a greater diversity of housing types and costs through
such techniques as incentives, inclusionary zoning, planned unit
developments, density bonuses, and transfer of development rights.
HP15 Consider zero lot line standards within planned unit
developments to create higher density single family neighborhoods
with large open space areas.

The Proposal bears a substantial relationship to the public health, safety
and welfare because it implements policies aimed at increasing housing diversity
and availability, neighborhood identity and promotes site sensitive development
to protect the environment and neighborhood character.

5. Language in proposed Section 20-312(c) would allow a fee-in-lieu payment Lo be made for
open space at the discretion of the Parks Djrector under certain criteria. The concern
expressed by the Committee was that these monies should be used to provide parks and open
space in the same general vicinity in which the subdivision making the paymenr is loCéll~d.
This raises the question of how to define the boundary of (his 'general vicinity' without being
arbitrary. There appear to be Lhree reasonable choices the City could use:
(a) The City establishes eight Park Planning Areas wirhin the Park Comprehensive Plan.
Five are located west of 1-5 and the other three on the east sidc. Using these Park
Planning Areas has the advantage of lying fee-in-lieu payments to established boundaries
that are specific to the provision of park and open space resources. The disadvnntugc may
be that these Park Planning Areas are larger than what the Committee had in mine!.
(b) The service area boundaries for the elementary schools might also be used. There arc 21
elementary schools in the City, which means Lhese boundaries would cncolllpa.<;s smaller
areas than the Park Planning Areas. The advantage to using school service ar~¡L~ is Ih,lt
ùley generally correspond to a neighborhood scale and are recognized for other funding
purposes. The disadvantage may be that the service areas may be small cnough thm in
some cases there may be no sites suitable for the use of the fee-in-licu payment funds.
(c) The other option would be to use the National Parks and Recreation AssocÍé1tion (NPRA)
standards for park service areas. The NPRA standard for Neighborhood Parks is a service
area with a ~ mile rùdius and would be the one most corresponding to \\ neighborhood
sized area. The disadvantages to this would be that there are no identified boundaries,
making monitoring and implementing of where the fce-in-lieu payments are to be used
difficult for City staff. and that Lhe specific area within the ~ mile radius m,lY not conlain
sites suitable for parks or open space.
6. The Committee suggested that Sh0l1 plats of 4 lots or less be re~ujred to make a fee-ill-lieu
payment for open space rather than having an on-site open space rcquircrnenl. Legal starr has
r~searçhcd (his issue and the RCW is ççur that a fce-in-licu paymcnr must be used in
conjunction with the option of providing oll-site dedication of open space. The underlying

issue was whether or not we would get any quality on-site open spaces wilhin short plulS of 4
or less lots. The Commiltee's position wag that all subdivisions regardless of size should
contribute in some manner to providing open space resources. Leaving the current open
space requirements for short plats in place and allowing for a fcc-in-lieu payment could
address both issues.
7. The Committee also suggested three different levels of review and approval for different
sized plats, This was in response to the recommendation to rclise the number ot" lots
qualifying for Ii short plat from 4 to 9, The concern raised was that the public would nul havc
input to the process for plats of 5 to 9 lots, since the short plat process is administrative. The
Committee suggested a public hearing requirement for plats of 5 to 9 lot,;. but not require a
final plat approval. This can be done, but it still requires rclising the number of lots rTO\TI 4 to
9. The RCW requires a final plat approval process for long plats; the City does not have the
option of waiving this requirement. To eliminate this requirement for plulO; of 5 to 9 loL'\ they
must be eligible for the short plat process. We can add language that would estabHsh the
public hearing requirement for plats of 5 to 9 lots within the short plat regulations.
This raises the issue of who conducts the hearing and who would hear an appeal"! At present
10ng plats are approved based on a hearing examiner recommendation .md city council
decsiol1. Appeals of the council decsion arc made to ~;uperior courl. Assuming the city
council wi11 conduct the pub1ic hearing, then the appeals could be handled two ways: appeal
to superior COUlt. or appeal to hearing examiner and then to court.
8. The Committee heard testimony regarding allowing the use of the proposed PRD regulations
in the SE zoning districts. Staff and I have discussed this and we agree that there may be
situations where (he use of a PRD in the SE lone makes sense. This would be parlicul;.u'ly
true in situations where a parcel is largely constrained by sensitive areas. Our
recommendation at this point would be to include the use of PRDs in the SE zoning dislricts.
9. Finally, a letter submitted to the City by Mr. Scholes raises a good point. As proposed we
would be allowing a fee-in-lieu payment for open space for a standard subdivision. but would
not for a PRD. The effect could be to make the PRD option less attractive and undennine the
incentive to use the PRO option.

Affordable Housing
Adequate housing. for all economic segments of the population. is ó basic need of King County ~ residents and an issue
of Countywide concern. Affordable housing needs must be addressed by local governments working in cooperation with
the private sector and nonprofit housing agencies. .
The Growth Management Act requires Countywide Policie-c: to address parameters for the distribution of affordable
housing. including housing for .all income groups. This complex issues require-c: adequate information regarding cur-
rent housing resources and housing needs., which is being developed for comprehensive plan housing elements. as well
(IS in-depth discussiO~ of values and priorities for housing development (
, Providing sufficient land for housing development is an essential step in promoting affordable housing. Affordable
housing can be enCOUl'aged by zoning additional land for higher residential densities. which helps provide needed'
capacity for growth. reduces land development cost per unit, and allows for lower cost construction types such. as
attached dwellings. Higher density housing includes a range of housing types: small-lot single family. attached single
family, mobile home parks. apartments and condominiums. in addition, zoning changes that permit additional housing
in established areas, such as accessory units. carriage houses, and residences built above commercial uses, increase
.affordable housing opportunities.

procedures as needed to encourage affordable housing, reviewing codes for redundancies an,
inconsistencies, and providing opportunities for a range of housing types, such as accessory
dwelling units, manufactured homes, group homes and foster care facilities, apartments,
townhouses and attached single family housing.
All jurisdictions shall share the responsibility for achieving a rational and equitable distribution of
affordabl~ housing to meet the housing needs of low and moderate-income residents in King
-county. The distribution of housing affordable to low and moderate-income households shall take
into consideration the need for proximity to lower wage employment, access to transportation and
human serviçes, and the adequacy of infrastructure to support housing development; recognize
each jurisdiction's past and current efforts to provide housing affordable to low and moderate-
income households: avoid over-concentration of assisted housing; and increase housing oppor-
tunities and choices for low and moderate-income households in communities throughout King
County. Each jurisdiction shall give equal consideration to local and Countywide housing needs.
A.
Existing Needs for Affordable Housing
Each jurisdiction shall participate in developing Countywide housing resources and programs to assist the
large number of low and moderate-income households who currentJy do not have affordable, appropriate
housing. These Countywide efforts will help reverse current trends which concentrate low-income housing
opportunities in certain communities, and achieve a more equitable participation by local jurisdictions in low
income housing development and services. COuntywide efforts should give priority to assisting households
below 50 percent of median-income that are in greatest need and communities with high proportions of low
and moderate income residents.
By October, 1994, the Growth Management Planning COuncilor-its successor shall appoint elected. and cor"'-
munity representatives to develop recommendations for providing low and moderate-income housing and.
related services. Within one year the committee shall recommend to the Growth Management Planning
COuncilorässu~~ .
New COuntywide funding source(s) for housing production and selVices, and a plan to establish this
funding within three years;
~articipation by local governments, including appropriate public and private financing, such that each
jurisdiction contributes on fair share basis; and

household income that is equal to 17 percent of äs projected net household growth. In addition, each juri .
diction shall plan for a number of housing units affordable to households with incomes below 50 percent OT .'
median income that is either 20 percent or 24 percent of its projected net household growth. For this housing,

the target percentage shall be detennined using the Affordable Housing Job/Housing Index developed using
Census-based information, which is contained in Appendix 3. C.
Each jurisdiction shall show in its comprehensive plan how it will use policies. incentives. regulations and
programs to provide its share of housing affordable to low and moderate-income households, Each jurisdic.-
tion should apply strategies which it determines to be most appropriate to the local housing market, For
example, units affordable to low and moderate income households may be developed through new
construction, projects that assure long-term affordability of existing ho~ng, oraccessory housing units added
to existing structures. loCal actions may include:
a. Identifying the costs to develop and preserve subsidized houSing and other low-cost housing not
provided by private development in the local housing market, and identifying sources of funding;
b. Revising land use regulations as needed to remove any unreasonable requirements that may
create barriers to siting and operating housing for speåal needs groups. Special needs housing
. serves persons, who,' by virtue of disability or other circumstances. face d~fficulty Jiving inde-
pendently and require supportive services on a transitional or long-term b8sis: and .
c. Adopting land use incentives programs or other regulatory measures to encourage private and
nonprofit development
Small, fully built cities and towns that are not planned to grow substantially under Growth Management Act
may worK cooperatively with other jurisdictions and/or subregional housing agencies to meet their housing
targets. In areas identified as city expansion areas, King County and cities should plan cooperatively for
affordable housing development and preservation.

Each jurisdiction shall evaluate its existing resources of subsidized and low-cost non-subsidized
housing and identify housing that may be lost due to redevelopment. deteriorating housing condi-
tions, or public policies or actions. Where feasible, each jurisdiction shall develop strategies to
p~erve existing low-income housing and provide relocation assistance to low-income residents (
who ,may be displaced. .
The Growth Management Planning Councilor its successor shall identify ways to expand techn,ical
assistance to local jurisdictions in affordable housing techniques. Technical assistance should
include project case studies and model ordinances covering such topics as development and
financing of nonprofit housing, provision of housing-related services, incentives programs for
affordable housing, regulations that encourage welJ-designed higher density housing,
improvements to development permit processing and standards to reduce development costs, and
public education and involvement. The Affordable Housing Task Force Report, dated March 1994
contains a summary of actions that local govemments may use to encourage affordable housing.
All jurisdictions shall monitor residential development within their jurisdiction and determine
annually the total number of new and redeveloped units receiving permits and units constructed,
housing types, developed densities and remaining capacity for residential growth. Housing prices
and rents also should be reported, based on affordability to four income categories: Zero to 50
percent of median income, 50 to 80 percent of median, 80 to 120 percent of median, and above'
120 percent of median. King County shall report annually Qn housing development. the rate of
housing cost and price increases and available residential capacity Countywide in its annual
growth reporting. .
The Affordable Housing and Data Technical Forums, which are comprised of city and County staff
and private housing industry representatives, shall develop a unifonn approach for monitoring
housing permit activity. construction. and affordability. Where feasible, the Affordable Housing
and Data Technical Forums shall consider collc~cting statistics such as: housing units receiving
building permits by income category, total units constructed by income category, low and moder-
~te-income housing acquired or preserved, households receiving rental assistance, and other local
housing activities. In addition where feasible, planning and monitoring'for affordable housing I

Every five years. beginning in 1999, the Growth Management Planning Councilor its successOr
organization responsible for monitoring growth management implementation shall evaluate
achievement of Countywide and local goals for housing for all economic segments of the popula-
tion. The Growth Management Planning Councilor its successor shall consider annual reports
prepared under policy AH-5 as well as market. conditions and other factors affecting housing
development. If the Growth Management Planning Councilor its successor determines that
housing planned for any economic segment falls short of the need for such housing, the Growth
Management Planning Councilor its successor may recommend additional actions.
As part of its evaluation, the Growth Management Planning Councilor its success.or shall review
local performance in meeting low and moder:ate income housing needs. The basis for determining
local performance shaff be a jurisdiction's participation in Countywide or subregional efforts to
. address existing housing needs and actual development of the target percentage of low and mod-
erate.income housing units as adopted in its comprehensive plan. In establishing planning targets
to address future affordable housing needs, it is recognized that success will be dependent in part
upon regional factors beyond the control of any single jurisdiction. Anyone jurisdiction acting
alone, or even in concert with other local govemments. mayor may not be able to achieve its tar-
gets in these policies, despite its best efforts. Success will require cooperation and support for
affordable housing from the state, federal and local governments, as well as the private sector.
The significant role of the market must also be recognized. In determining performance the .
Growth Management Planning Councilor its successor shall therefore use reasonable judgment,
and also shall consider these market and other factors, as well as action taken to encourage
development and preservation of low and moderate-income housing, such as local funding, devel-
opment code changes, and creation of new programs.

-----------------------------------------------------------------
I.
BACKGROUND
The Federal Way Comprehensive Plan contains goals and policies
that encourage innovative residential development to address
issues such as neighborhood character, housing diversity, and
appropriate in-fill development. Techniques including planned
residential developments, zero lot lines, smaller lots, density
bonuses, incentives, clustering, and others are suggested for
consideration.
Currently, the City's subdivision regulations provide little in
the way of flexibility in site development and design. For
example, while there are existing provisions to allow clustering
of units within subdivisions, there are virtually no incentives
to do so.
City staff has identified several provisions within the
subdivision regulations for review and possible amendments. The
intent is to further the City's goal of accommodating growth
through in-fill development.
II.
PLANNING COMMISSION PROCESS
The Planning Commission held public hearings on June 4, June 18,
and August 20, 1997. The City's consultant and City staff
provided the Commission with an overview of issues and draft
regulatory provisions. The hearings were attended by several
members of the public, one of which is a local developer.
Written testimony was provided by two of the attendees. The
hearings were devoted to a section-by-section review of the
recommended regulatory language contained in the June 4, 1997
consultant staff report.
The City's consultant and City staff have prepared draft
subdivision regulation amendments and a draft planned residential
development ordinance, the provisions of which are to be included

The following list summarize the major code amendments reviewed
by the Commission during this code revision process.
Subdivisions (Long Plats)
a. The number of lots requiring a long plat process is
raised from 5 to 10.
A new Division 9 is added to Article II to provide a
process for the vacation of approved long plats.
A preliminary plat certificate will be required with
the submitted application.
Short Subdivisions (Short Plat)
a. The number of lots qualifying for a short plat
(i.e. administrative review) is raised from 4

lots to
provisions are added to allow for the alteration and/or
vacation of an approved short plat.
A party owning or having interests in adjoining short
plats shall utilize the long plat review process.
Binding Site Plans
a. Condominiums, manufactured home parks, and recreational
vehicle parks are required to use the binding site plan
process.
Condominiums having an approved binding site plan are
exempted from the general subdivision (long plat)
process requirements.
A new section is added to allow for the alteration of
approved binding site plans.
Open Space Requirements
A fee-in-lieu payment is allowed at the discretion of
the Parks Director instead of providing on-site open
space.
Open space requirements for short subdivisions of 4
lots or less are eliminated.
Open space requirements do not apply to resubdi vided
parcels if they met the open space requirements at the
time of the original plat.

Planned Residential Developments (PRD)
A new section is added to Chapter 20 to provide for the use
of Planned Residential Developments in creating new
residential subdivisions. The pertinent provisions are as
follows:

STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the Planning Commission
use this report as basis upon which the Commission
develops a recommendation of proposed
Subdivision regulation amendments for City Council
consideration. .
I.
INTRODUCTION
Several items have been identified and prioritized by the City Council for completion
during its 1997 Planning Commission work program. One of these tas~s is a review
and update selected portions of the City's Subdivision regulations.
II.
BACKGROUND
In January of 1994 City staff identified a list of topics within the Subdivisions regulations
that needed to be addressed to either bring the code into compliance with State
provisions, make them consistent with other city codes, or that would make them more
helpful to staff and applicants and more applicable to the City's development context.
Staff has since reviewed the subdivision regulations for consistency with State laws and
other City codes. Most recently the subdivision regulations have been updated to
comply with the State legislative requirements for regulatory reform (ESHB 1724).
The remaining items on the list relate to making the subdivision regulations easier to
use and more directly applicable to Federal Way. This list has been partially prioritized
and reviewed again to make sure these items still need review.
:
"
III.
ISSUES & ALTERNATIVES
The topics to be addressed fall into six general categories. Each of these issues
contain several review items, with each item dealt with separately and provided with a
staff recommendation. Relationships between discussion items are also indicated.
A.
SUBDIVISIONS (LONG PLATS)
Subdivisions or long plats are one of the mechanisms by which tracts of land are
divided into individual building lots or parcels. Under current City code a subdivision
process (as opposed to a short subdivision) is required for divisions of land into five lots
or greater. The subdivision process consists of two major parts.
The first step is approval of a preliminary plat. Typically, a preliminary plat is meant to
be general in nature and does not include detailed engineering specifications. In most
cases preliminary plats establish the overall layout of the subdivision, indicating the
proposed street network, general layout of blocks and lots, preliminary location of
utilities, open spaces and sensitive areas, and other major elements of the subdivision.
These are reviewed to ensure conformance with City zoning and engineering
standards. This step is important in that many of the improvements (e.g. streets and
sidewalks) become public and will later be taken over and maintained by the City.
The second step is approval of a final plat, which is more specific as to the precise
locations of utilities, public and private easements, actual number and configuration of
individual lots, etc. Approval of a final plat is usually granted only after substantial
completion or installation of the public improvements that were indicated on the
preliminary plat. Final approval is required before property within the subdivision can
be transferred or building permits issued.
1.
PRELIMINARY PLATS
The issue raised regarding preliminary plats is whether or not they can or should be
processed administratively. An administrative review process does not require a public
hearing. Under the current code, the hearings examiner holds a public hearing on a
preliminary plat and then provides a recommendation to the City Council. The City
Council then makes the final decision based on the established public record. Appeals
of a Council decision are filed in King County Superior Court.
Our conversations with staff suggest that the Council may wish to retain final approval
of preliminary plat applications. This is clearly appropriate in those instances where
concems are raised by adjoining property owners and where the subdivision is of a
scale that could significantly affect the surrounding area. However, there are likely to
be instances where a subdivision is modest in size, meets all City standards, and does
not raise the concems of surrounding property owners. In these cases an
administrative review process might be a better use of City resources and time, and
would also help meet the requirements of ESHB 1724.
2
"
One way to do this is to increase the minimum number of lots requiring a long
subdivision application. The Revised Code of Washington (RCW) 58.17.095 gives the
City legislative authority to increase the number of lots, tracts, or parcels to be regulated
as short subdivisions to a maximum of nine. The short subdivision process is
administrative so by increasing the number of lots qualifying as a short subdivision
more subdivisions will be reviewed administratively. This approach appears particularly
suited for Federal Way since much of the future growth will be in-fill development and
would presumably involve smaller subdivisions.
RECOMMENDATION:
Make the following modification to Chapter 20:
1) Raise the minimum number of lots requiring a long subdivision from 5 lots to 10
lots in Article I, Section 20-1 Definitions. (Note: this will also require changing the
definition of Short Plat).
An additional approach the Planning Commission may wish to consider would be to
have an administrative review of preliminary plats. RCW 58.17.020 allows for the
administrative review of preliminary plats upon adoption of an ordinance to that effect.
The ordinance must allow for appropriate notification of surrounding property owners,
provide a comment period, and allow any effected party the ability to request that a
public hearing be held. The City may also establish a threshold number of lots above
which a public hearing would be required. For example, the City could provide for an
administrative review of preliminary plats containing from 10 to 30 lots within Article II,
Division 6. This would include the requirements from RCW 58.17.020, particularly the
following provisions:
a. Within at least 10 days notice of the application shall be published and
mailed to all property owners within 300 feet of the proposal and notice
shall be posted in five conspicuous places around the proposal.'
b. Any person may provide written comment on the proposed subdivision
with 21 days after publishing notice of application.
c. A public hearing shall be held if any person files a request for 'a hearing
within 21 days of the publishing of the notice of application.
d. A public hearing may also be initiated by the City.
The key features of this approach are that it establishes a threshold above which an
administrative review is not an option (i.e. 30 lots) and allows for a public hearing in the
event an effected party requests one. Note that even though a preliminary plat may be
reviewed administratively the final plat approval would still rest with the City Council.
3
"
2.
TITLE REPORT WITH PRELIMINARY PLAT
One of the items included on the list of code updates was to include a title report as a
required application item for a preliminary plat. The recent code updates relative to
regulatory reform did not address this item. The purpose of this requirement would' be
to disclose at the beginning of the process whether or not some or all of the property to
be subdivided is encumbered by ownership issues, deed restrictions, covenants, etc.
In some cases knowing this information at the outset could enable the City to require
that project sponsors resolve any civil legal issues before committing limited staff time
to the review of the proposal.
RECOMMENDATION:
Add the following submittal requirement to Chapter
20, Division 6, Section 20.110(c):
A complete and accurate title report, dated no more than 90 days prior to the
application date, detailing all encumbrances, liens, covenants, restrictions, parties
with interests, or any other legal commitment that is attached to the subject
property(s).
3.
LONG PLAT ALTERATfONSNACATION
Current City regulations do allow for the revision of long plats, but are silent as to the
process for vacation of an approved long plat. If a long plat alteration involves the
relocation of driveways to streets external to the plat or there is an increase in the
number of driveways, then the plat alteration process is the same as that required for
preliminary plats: initial review by staff, staff report to hearings examiner and a public
hearing, examiner recommendation to city council, and then city council approval. The
basic issue is whether or not the plat alteration process can or should be made
admin istrative.
RCW 58.17.215 provides the basic procedural framework for the alteration of
subdivisions. In general, if the proposed alteration involves a short plat or is considered
a boundary line adjustment and does not create any additional lots, then the alteration
may be reviewed and approved administratively by the planning director. Beyond that it
appears that State law does not allow for the administrative alteration of long plats.
If the intent of making plat alterations administrative is to make more efficient use of '
City resources and time, then it appears that' any reduction in the number of
subdivisions permits that have to go through a full public review process would be a
move in the right direction. Conversations with staff suggest that it is really the smaller
subdivision applications where an administrative review process would best benefit both
city staff and applicants.
The City's subdivision alteration procedures already provide for as much administrative
review as is allowed under State law. The exception may be the threshold
4
",
requirements relative to the relocation of driveways to streets external to the
subdivision. These could be eliminated, but the rationale of requiring public review of
alterations that would impact surrounding streets is a sound one and we would not
recommend changing those thresholds. The one change that could be made to allow
for more opportunity to administratively review alterations to smaller plats would be to
raise the number of lots qualifying for short subdivision review from 4 lots to 9 lots. This
would mean that all plats having fewer than 10 lots could be altered administratively.
RECOMMENDATION:
Increase the number of" lots that qualify as a short
subdivision to a total of 9. (see also issue B.1 in the following
section)
As to the vacation of plats the RCW does not appear to allow for the administrative
review and approval of long plat vacations. This is also true for short plats if the
vacation involves some public dedication, such as a street. However, the City has no
mechanism for plat vacation in its current regulations.
RECOMMENDATION:
Create a new Division 9 in Article II of Chapter 20 entitled
Plat Vacations. Base the procedures for plat vacation on
RCW 58.17.212.
B.
SHORT SUBDIVISION (SHORT PLAT)
"
A short subdivision is currently defined under City code as a division of land that
creates four or fewer individual lots. The current process for short subdivisions
provides for, an administrative review and approval by'the planning director, which
includes review by affected utility providers. The, decision by the planning director is
appealed to the hearings examiner. It should be noted that even though the approval
process for short subdivisions is administrative the planning director must still review
the proposed short plat relative to underlying City design and development standards.
1.
INCREASE NUMBER OF LOTS
One issue is whether to increase the allowed number of lots created under the short
plat process. State law (RCW 58.17) allows a jurisdiction to raise the number of lots to
nine. The advantage to raising the number of lots would be to allow for administrative
review of smaller plats. This is related to the discussions under subdivisions above
where the intent would be to streamline the City's overall subdivision processes.
Another consideration is that future growth within the City will be largely from in-fill
dëvelopment and likely involve the subdivision of smaller parcels or tracts. If such in-fill
development meets City standards and has the effect of implementing the growth
5
'.
strategy of the comprehensive plan, then administrative review of smaller subdivisions
would be an appropriate mechanism for furthering the goals of the plan.
RECOMMENDATION:
Change the number of lots from 4 to 9 in the definition of short
subdivisions in Article I, Section 20-1 Definitions.
2.
OWNERSHIP OF CONTIGUOUS SHORT PLATS
The issue here is that it is technically possible for a single individual or organization to
own contiguous parcels and over time develop these parcels under a short plat process
rather than use the long subdivision process. This poses a problem from the
perspective of trying to plan for orderly incremental growth and the provision of public
services and utilities since it allows for 'leap-frog' development. The City's current code
structure is silent except for not allowing an exemption for alteration of a short
subdivision if it is owned by the owner of a contiguous lot or parcel.
The reasoning for the alteration of contiguously owned short subdivisions should also
apply to their creation. In other words, the effect of developing several contiguously
owned short subdivisions has the same overall impact as the development of a long
subdivision and should be subject to public review.
RECOMMENDATION:
Add the following language to the end of the opening
sentence in Section 20-81 : .
... PROVIDED, however, that this general procedure shall not apply if the proposed
short subdivision is either simultaneously owned or has been owned within the
previous five years by an owner of or a person having substantial financial
interests in a contiguous lot, parcel, tract or short plat at the time of application; in
which case the application procedures governing Division 6, Preliminary Plats,
shall apply. . .
The five year figure is used here since it is consistent with the period of time
used for the completion of subdivisions and limitations on the use of the short
subdivision process found in RCW 58.17. We should note that in our
experience we have not seen an ordinance that deals directly with contiguous
ownership
3.
SHORT PLAT AL TERA TIONSN ACA TION
Alteration or vacation of short plats is provided for in RCW 58.17.060. The RCW states
that the City shall establish an administrative process for the review and approval of
short plat applications, and the alteration or vacation of same. The issue here is what
would be an appropriate process. .
6
",
,"
The City's subdivision regulations do not appear to specify a process for either the
alteration or the vacation of a short subdivision. Since the current short plat approval
process is administrative it may make sense to simply utilize the existing process for the
review of short plat alterations and vacations.
RECOMMENDATION:
Add short plat alterations and vacations to Division 5 of
Article II In Chapter 20. This can be done either by adding
two new sections at the end of the Division 5 or by
Incorporating the words 'alteration' and 'vacation' Into the
opening sections of Division 5.
c.
PLANNED RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENTS (PRD)
One of the items on the code update list is to consider instituting a 'Planned Residential
Development (PRO) process. The current subdivision regulations attempt to introduce
some flexibility in residential plat layout by allowing a developer to cluster dwellings into
one area of the parcel, with the intent of preserving open space and generally lessening
the impacts of the development. In practice the clustering provisions have not worked
well since there are essentially no incentives to encourage their use; for example the
applicant is given no more lots than what is allowed under a standard subdivision
process. There are also few guidelines relative to site design.
A PRO provides more flexibility and discretion in site design and layout than the typical
subdivision process. A PRD process offers incentives, usually density bonuses, for
such things as open space, improved pedestrian circulation, building clustering, building
design, etc. It allows a more flexible approach to accommodating site features such as
slopes, wetlands, streams, and public areas. A PRO can also allow for innovative
solutions to issues regarding impacts to adjacent properties and uses.
At the heart of a PRO process are the incentives provided to encourage innovative and
sensitive development. The City has been interested in encouraging the clustering of
dwellings as a means to lessen the impact of new residential development on
surrounding areas and preserve natural features. A density bo.nus. is not currently
utilized for a clustered subdivision, but should be considered for a project if clustering is
used. However, clustering by itself is no guarantee of the type of development the City
may want. The provision and quality of open spaces, building layout and orientation,
pedestrian amenities, protection of sensitive areas, and other items contribute to quality
development and could be included in a bonus system.
We have provided staff with a draft set of PRO regulations, which include the following
recommended standards and bonuses.
RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt a set of PRD regulations that establish the following
standards and bonus system:
"
7
"
"
PROCESS.
PRDs shall be reviewed as referenced iq Article II, Division 6, PreliDÚnary Plat, and Division 7, Final
Plat.
MINIMUM SIZE.
The minimum contiguous area of a PRD project shall be two acres.
We have rarely seen PRD ordinances with less than a two acre minimum. On tracts less
than two acres there is often not enough space for flexibility in lot locations, lot
configurations, access, and meaningful protection of environmental features. We suggest
this minimum since the size appears to fit with the in-fill growth pattern of the City.
DESIGN CRITERIA - GENERALLY.
(a) The design criteria established within this article shall be used as a guide for an
applicant to follow in developing a preliminary and ~al PRD plan.
(b) These criteria shall also be used as the basis for recommendation and decisions
regarding density increases within a PRD.
DEsIGN CRITERIA - REQUIRED OPEN SPACE.
(a) For the purpose of this article, open space shall be described and provided in all
PRDs as referenced in Article ill Section 20-155(a) through (0.
Note also the discussions concerning open space requirements on page 11, section
'E' of this report.
DESIGN CRITERIA - SINGLE-FAMILY PRDs.
(a) Lot size. A maximum reduction of 25 percent for DÚnimum lot size for PRDs located
in single-family RS residential zones may be permitted according to the following partial
reductions for designated design criteria. The reductions are additive, but in no case may
they exceed 2S percent in total. The exact amount of each partial reduction is determined by
the planning director. '
The primary incentive for using the PRD approach in a single family zone is the
ability to create more lots than is allowed in a èonventional subdivision. The
greater the percent reduction in lot size the more lots are created. However, the
Comprehensive Plan has a goal of preserving the character of single family
neighborhoods. The maximum lot reduction allo~ed should not be so great as to
introduce density that is not compatible with the surrounding neighborhoods. A
25% reduction is suggested here because larger reductions produce lot sizes that
are less than the lot size of the next higher density zoning district, which may not
be compatible with existing neighborhoods.
8
(1) A maximum reduction of 6 percent may be granted if at least 2S percent of the gross
land area of the PRD site is reserved as open space pursuant to the guidelines set
forth in section 20-155. An additional reduction of 3 percent (9 percent cumulative)
may be granted if at least 35 percent is reserved as open space;
(2) A maximum reduction of 7 'percent may be granted if unusual or significant site
features such as views, watercourses, wetlands or other natural characteristics are
enhanced or incorporated into the PRD design;
(3) A maximum reduction of 5 percent may be granted by the use of existing trees and
mature vegetation or innovative landscaping methods for streetscapes,.open spaces,
or recreational areas; and
(4) A maximum reduction of 7 percent may be granted by the inclusion of features such
as variation in building setbacks, use of materials consistent with surrounding
neighborhoods, clustering of buildings, zero lot lines, or energy-efficient siting.
The design criteria are the basis upon which lot sizes are decreased and more lots
created. The percentages given above are similar to many codes we have worked
with and are suggested as a starting point. Each of the percent figures gives a
numerical weight to each of the design categories and are intended to reflect the
relative importance of each.
DESIGN CRITERIA - MULTI-FAMILY PRDs.
(a) Density increase. A density increase of 30 percent greater than that permitted by the
underlying zoning may be allowed for PRDs located in multi-family (RM) residential zones
according to the following partial density increases for designated design criteria. The
density increases are additive, but in no case may they exceed 30 percent in total. The exact
amount of each partial density increase is determined by the review authority.
(1) A maximum reduction of 6 percent may be granted if at least 2S percent of the gross
land area of the PRD site is reserved as open space pursuant to the guidelines set
forth in section 20-155. An additional reduction of 3 percent (9 percent cumulative)
may be granted if at least 35 percent is reserved as open space;
(2) A maximum reduction of 7 percent may be granted if unusual or significant site
features such as views, watercourses,. wetlandS or other natural characteristics are
enhanced or incorporated into the PRD design;
(3) A maximum reduction of 5 percent may be granted by the use of existing trees and
mature vegetation or innovative landscaping methods for streetsca'pes, open spaces,
or recreational areas; and
(4) A maximum reduction of7 percent may be granted by the inclusion of features such
as variation in building setbacks, use of materials consistent with surrounding
neighborhoods, clustering of buildings, zero lot lines, or energy-efficient siting.
(5) A maximum increase of 5 percent may be granted if a variety of housing types is
provided, such as duplexes, fourplexes attached single family, town houses, etc.
(b) Required perimeter buffer vme. A minimum 30 foot buffer zone must be provided
for any PRD of multifamily structures in the RM zone that is adjacent to a RS or SE zoning
district. The buffer zone must be kept free of buildings, structures or parlång areas and .
9
"
"
must be landscaped, screened or protected by natural features so that adverse effects on
surrounding areas are minimized.
DESIGN CRITERIA - STREETS..
(a) Right-of-way width and street roadway widths may be reduced, especialiy where it
is found that the plan for the PRD provides for the separation of vehicular and pedestrian
circulation patterns and provides for adequate off-street parlång facilities as deemed
appropriate by the public works director.
D.
BINDING SITE PLANS
A binding site plan is another way of legally laying out and developing a parcel. They
have typically been uSed for developing commercial and industrial sites, but can be
utilized for mobile home and recreational vehicle parks, and condominium developments
as allowed under RCW 58.17. It is a somewhat streamlined subdivision process in that
it assumes strict compliance with the underlying zoning and, as such, is often processed
administratively.
It can differ from a subdivision in several ways. The land is often held in one ownership
and parceled as leaseholds rather than for sale. Internal roadways and utility corridors
are more likely to be privately maintained instead of being dedicated to the City. A
binding site plan may not necessarily divide the larger parcel into separate lots, but
rather may simply locate the different uses and major features in relation to each other.
There are typically no incentives such as density bonuses or height increases in a
binding site plan process.
The issues raised regarding binding site plans are 1} to review for appropriate process,
2} add provisions for their alteration, 3} allow this process to be used for condominiums,
mobile home and recreational vehicle parks, and 4} clarify that these regulations are for
ground leases only.
In the recent code amendments relative to regulatory reform the City adopted an
administrative review process, essentially utilizing the same process as for short
subdivisions. Since City staff has just recently addressed this issue we have no further
recommendation.
RCW 58.17.040 allows for a binding site plan process to be used for condominiums,
mobile home and recreational parks. The City simply needs to add these uses to the
binding site plan process.
RECOMMENDATION:
Make the following changes to Chapter 20:
1) Article II, Division 4, Section 20-61: Add condominiums, manufactured home parks, and
recreational vehicle parks to the list of uses requiring a binding site plan.
10
.
..
2) Article I, Section 20-3 Exemptions: Add condominiums having an approved binding
site plan to the list of exemptions.
3) Article I, Section 20-1 Definitions: Clarify that a binding site plan applies to ground
leases only. (Note: The same change should be made to the definitions of Short Subdivision
and Subdivision also in Section 20-1)
Current City regulations are silent regarding the alteration of an approved binding site
plan. Since the recently proposed approval process for a binding site plan is
administrative based on the short subdivision process, then it appears to makes sense
to utilize that process for alterations.
RECOMMENDATION:
Add a new section, 20-66 Alteration of Binding Site Plans ,to
Division 4 which states that alterations of an approved binding site
plan shall follow the same process as stipulated for short
subdivisions in section 20-81.
E.
OPEN SPACE REQUIREMENTS
Several questions have been raised relative to open space requirements within the
subdivision processes:
1) Should fee-in-lieu payments apply to long plats?
A fee-in-lieu payment would allow a developer to make a monetary contribution to a
fund rather than provide open space within the subdivision itself. City regulations do
not now provide for fee-in-lieu contributions for subdivisions with lots greater than 5
acres.
One factor to consider is that subdivisions can vary dramatically in size. Requiring
open space in a relatively small subdivision may not create a quality community
space. In addition, if a community has an overall park and open space plan there is
the question of how the open spaces created in subdivisions fit into the plan. Many
communities have found that by requiring open spaces in all subdivisions they have
ended up with many disparate pieces that do not fit into a larger open space
framework.
Allowing for the option of making a fee-in-lieu payment does provide for somewhat
greater flexibility and City control as to where and what kind of open space and park
resources get developed.
RECOMMENDATION: 1) Allow for a fee-in-lieu payment to be made at the
discretion of the parks director after consideration of the
City's park plan, quality, location and service area of the
open space that would otherwise be provided within the
project. The fee-in-lieu of open space shall be calculated on
15% of the most recent assessed value of the property. In
11
the absence of an assessment, the market value shall be
based on an appraisal conducted by a MAl certified
appraiser or another professional appraiser approved by the
parks director.
2) Eliminate the requirement for open space within short
subdivisions.
2 Should lar e lot subdivisions 1 + acre lots hav 0 e s ace re uirements?
An open space requirement is intended to provide for adequate public open space
within subdivisions. Someone owning a 1 acre residential lot is unlikely to be
suffering from a lack of open space opportunities. If in the future the zoning for that
area were to change, then open space would be provided based on the land being
divided into smaller sized urban lots.
RECOMMENDATION:
Do not include open space requirements in the review and approval
of subdivisions having 1 acre lots or larger.
3) Should open space dedications apply to resubdivided parcels if the dedication was
previously met?
In a number of communities any time new lots are created the open space
requirements apply, regardless of whether the original division met the requirements
in effect at the time. However, these communities also employ an impact fee
structure which lends itself to being administered on a per lot basis. Federal Way
does not use impact fees for parks and open space, so provision of open space is
accomplished through the subdivision standards As pointed out in #1 above this
can be a problematic approach.
However, this question is stated in terms of dedications of open space. If the
original plat dedicated an actual tract of land, -then it is unlikely that a functionally
sized tract would remain for further open space dedication. This of course would
depend on lot sizes within the plat, but in most cases requiring an additional land
dedication upon the division of several of the lots will likely be impractical.
RECOMMENDATION:
Do not impose open space dedications on resubdivided parcels if a
dedication had been made at the time of the previous plat.
4) Should the categories relative to how open space is calculated be changed?
The categories of open space used in the subdivision regulations do not appear to
require any modification. Other codes we have worked with or reviewed have
similar categories. Some codes use terms such a 'improved open space' or
'passive' versus 'active' recreation areas, but there is no inherent advantage of using
certain terms or definitions over others. This open space classification system
12
appears adequate for Federal Way's purposes. We are not aware of any other
issues relative to these open space categories' and do not recommend any change
in these categories at this time.
A related consideration would be whether or not to allow for the alteration of the
percentages of open space types on an individual basis. A particular subdivision
may have a preponderance of one type of open space opportunity and not be able
to meet the open space requirements in the other categories. In such cases it may
be in the City's best interests to modify the percentages in order that the open space
type that is there can be fully accommodated by allowing the applicant to count that
one type in meeting their open space requirement.
One approach would be to allow for the administrative alteration of the open space
type percentages by the parks director based on some general criteria.
RECOMMENDATION:
Allow for the administrative alteration of the open space
category percentage requirements on a case-by-case basis.
Review of such cases would be performed by the parks
director and would be based on the following
considerations:
1. The change In percentage requirements would result
In a superior open space plan than could be accomplished
under the standard percentage requirements.
"
2. The availability and types of open space located
within the Immediate area.
3. The presence on-site of environmental features that
are unique or rare or of local importance.
4. The opportunities for the preservation of significant
views and creation of public access to points of interest.
5. The relationship of the proposed open sp~ces to the
City's park plan.
13
oIL.
F. Flag (Panhandle) Lots
Panhandle or flag lots are lots that are created such that the access to a public street is
over a long narrow extension of the lot. Staff has raised several questions and are
seeking clarification on several issu~s relative to flag lots.
1.
MEASURING LOT WIDTH
Subdivision regulation Section 20-152(c) states that all lots should abut a public street.
The question raised is if a long narrow lot were subdivided would it be creating one or
more flag lots? If that were true how would lot width be measured?
It is unlikely that flag lots would be approved under a long subdivision or PRO process.
However, there are situations on older larger lots where there is sufficient space to
subdivide, but the lot is relatively narrow. In these situations flag .Iots might be created
to provide access to a public street, however we Figure 1
have rarely seen situations where there are
'nested' flag lots. Access could just as easily be
accomplished via an easement across the front lot
or across an already established flag lot access.
This would eliminate the need for the 'pole' portion
of a flag lot.
In cases where such lots are created measuring lot
width should be done behind the point where the
'pole' of the flag lot extends out from the main
body of the lot.
RECOMMENDATION:
Do not allow more
than one flag lot to
be created out of
any given narrow
parcel of land. If
multiple lots can
be created the
remaining Interior
lots shall be given
easements across
the flag lot to
provide access to
public streets.

SETBACKS ON FLAG LOTS
The issue here is basically how to determine which
are the front, rear, and side yards on flag lots. We
have dealt with this issue in several client
communities and there is really no good specific
formula or criteria that covers all potential flag lot
configurations and relationships to adjacent lots.
What we have done is use a generalized approach to
establishing setbacks that relies on the arrangement
of the yards on adjacent lots. In general where the
yards of a subject lot abut side yards of adjacent lots,
then those yards are the subject lot's side yards; and
where it abuts front or rear yards on adjacent lots,
those yards on the subject lot become the front or
rear yards.
RECOMMENDATION:
Utilize the following
approach in determining
the yards on flag lots:
The front yard of a flag lot shall be that yard which is
adjacent to where the 'pole' portion of the 'lot
connects with the main portion of the lot; UNLESS if
in the judgment of the planning director the
arrangement of setbacks on adjacent surrounding
lots clearly suggest a different yard arrangement.

CALCULATING LOT SizE/LoT COVERAGE RELATIVE TO EASEMENTS
Staff is looking for clarification on how to measure lot coverage where there are lots
with reciprocal access easements. This question has been asked in terms of two
panhandle lots, but this would apply to any easement situation. This is not strictly a
subdivision issue, but is related.
Calculation of lot coverage is found in the zoning code Section 22-955. It states:
. A vehicular access easement or tract that serves more than one lot will
not be used in determining compliance with the maximum lot coverage
requirement of this chapter..
Our experience with other codes suggests that the intent of this language is to calculate
lot coverage exclusive of the area of a recorded access easement. In other words, lot
coverage will be calculated after the area of the easement is deducted form the total lot
area.
15
-------,,_...., ..,
.
RECOMMENDATION:
Amend Section 22-955 to state that lot coverage is
calculated based on the net lot area after the deduction of
the area of an access easement.
v.
CON ClUSIONS
These recommendations are intended to address the issues raised by staff on certain
specific items in the subdivision regulations. It is not meant as a comprehensive update
since the City has recently gone through an update to several portions of its code.
These recommendations should provide a means for clarifying and streamlining the
overall subdivision process.
