The Community Development Staff Report sets forth general findings, applicable policies
and provisions in this matter and is hereby marked as Exhibit" I" and incorporated in its
entirety by this reference.
3.
All appropriate notices were delivered in accordance with the requirements of the Federal
Way City Code (FWCC).
4.
The applicant has a possessory ownership interest in a 22.47 acre, triangular shaped parcel
of property within the City of Federal Way. Southwest Campus Drive abuts the parcel on
the north and the Bonneville Power Administration (BPA) power line easement abuts the
hypotenuse on the southeast. To the east of the site across Southwest Campus Drive and the
BP A easement, are the King County Aquatic Center and Panther Lake Park. Immediately
northeast of the site are Saghalie Junior High School and Saghalie Park. Abutting the site
on the west is undeveloped property classified as Multi-Family Residential (RM 2,400) and
single family residential (RS.7.2). To the north of the site across Southwest Campus Drive
is the multi family project of Glen Park.
5.
A review of the site plan reveals that a single access is provided from Southwest Campus
Drive opposite the entrance to the Glen Park multi-family housing project. The northwest
comer of the site, adjacent to Southwest Campus Drive, is proposed for improvement with
an 18 hole putting range, 54 parking stalls, and batting cages. The golf driving range is
located adjacent to the BP A easement with the tees aligned in a northeast/southwest direction
parallel to said easement. A golf center (pro shop) and 164 parking stalls are located
southwest of the tees in the comer of the site. Significant trees are located around the
perimeter of the site and will be preserved. The applicant proposes to install driving range
protective netting up to 100 feet in height to protect adjacent properties iTom errant golf
balls, and will limit the building height of all other structures to 50 feet.
6.
Upon incorporation of the City of Federal Way on February 28, 1990, the previous owner
of the property (Quadrant Corporation) and the City executed a Concomitant Agreement
which classified the parcel as Multi-Family Residential (RM-3600) and authorized
constrUction of233 townhouse/condominium attached housing units. Said agreement also
authorized the property owners or their successors and assigns to request a zone
reclassification pursuant to the Process III procedure set forth in the Federal Way City Code
(FWCC). The RM 3600 classification as defined in the Concomitant Agreement does not
authorize the proposed use. Pursuant to the City's determination, the applicant is requesting
a zone reclassification to RM 3600-1 which, if granted, will specifically authorize the driving
range, putting course, and batting cages.
7.
Prior to obtaining a zone reclassification the applicant must establish that the request satisfies
the criteria set forth in Section 22-299 FWCC. Findings on each criteria are hereby made
\,
Federal Way Golf Learning Center
April 4, 1997
Page 3
as follows:
A.
B....
The proposed zone reclassification is in the best interest of the residents of the City.
While many parcels witlún the City are available for development into single family
and mult- family housing areas, few parcels are appropriate for recreational uses,
especially golf driving ranges. Such is evidenced by the fact that the City has only
one private golf course (Twin Lakes), no public golf facilities, and no golf driving
ranges. This project will provide residents with a needed and presently unavailable
recreational opportunity.
The proposed zone reclassification is appropriate because conditions in the
immediate vicinity of the property have so significantly changed since the property
was originally zoned RM 3600, that a rezone is within the public interest. The
Campus Drive corridor initially began developing as a medium to high density
residential corridor. However, in the area of the project Campus Drive has developed
into a significant recreational center to include the King County/Weyerhaeuser
Aquatic Center, Panther Lake Park, Saghalie Park, and the BPA bicycle/walking
trail. Saghalie Park combined with Saghalie Junior High School provides several
ball fields, soccer fields, tennis courts, basketball court, and a walking trial.
Development of this parcel will complement existing recreational opportunities by
providing a totally different, yet consistent form of recreation.
Prior to obtaining a zone reclassification the applicant must also establish that the request
satisfies the criteria set forth in Section 22-302 FWCC. Findings on each criteria are hereby
made as follows:
8.
A.
B.
C.
D.
The project meets the criteria contained in Section 22.299 FWCC as set forth above.
The proposed project complies with Chapter 22 FWCC in all respects. The
Concomitant Agreement is proposed for amendment to implement appropriate
development standards to ensure mitigation of impacts on surrounding properties.
The site plan is designed to minimize all adverse impacts of the development on
properties in the immediate vicinity. Major impacts addressed by the City include
aesthetics and lighting. Mitigating measures set forth in the MONS and conditions
of approval hereinafter require limited hours of operation, compliance with the
FWCC lighting and glare requirements, and traffic mitigation. The replica of the
project shows the buffering between. the driving range and nearby residential
projects, and establishes that lighting impacts will be completely mitigated.
The site plan is designed to minimize impacts upon public services and utilities. The
(
(
(
Federal Way Golf Learning Center
April 4, 1997
Page 4
driving range and accessory uses will require typical public services and utilities, all
of which are available. Furthermore, development of the site into a multi. family
complex in accordance with the present zone classification would require
substantially more of such facilities and services.
Prior to obtaining a zone reclassification, the applicant must establish that the request
satisfies the criteria set forth in the Process III review procedure in Section 22.476 et. seq.,
FWCC. Said procedure authorizes the Hearing Examiner to recommend approval or
disapproval of the zone classification request to the Federal Way City Council based upon
whether or not, in the E~iner' s opinion, the request satisfies the criteria set forth in section
22-490 (d) FWCc. Findings on each criteria set forth therein are hereby made as follows:
9.
A.
B.
10.
The project is consistent with the City of Federal Way Comprehensive Plan. The
project implements policy 1UP-15 of the Comprehensive Plan as it adequately
protects residential areas from the impact of non-residential uses, which in this case
is the golf driving range. The project also implements policy TP-S as it protects
neighborhoods from traffic impacts. TIús site will generate virtually no traffic during
the a.m. peak period, and experiences it's most significant use on the weekends.
During the week, the major use of the site occurs from noon to 4:00 p.m., non-peak
traffic periods.
While the 1995 Comprehensive Plan designates the property as multi-family
residential, such is based upon the Concomitant Agreement which the applicant is
proposing to amend pursuant to the procedure and criteria set forth therein.
Furthermore, this project will provide a needed recreational opportunity for residents
of both nearby multi-family projects and the City as a whole, and is complementary
with the area.
C.
The project is consistent with the applicable provisions of the FWCC and will be
subject to the terms and conditions of the Amended Concomitant Agreement.
D.
The proposed driving range and accessory uses are consistent with the public health,
safety, and welfare. Potential adverse impacts were identified and mitigated during
the environmental review, and the recreational opportunity will further the health,
safety, and welfare of City residents.
At the public hearing, Allen Bowman, Polygon 2000 Inc., appeared in support of the project,
but opposed the proposed changes to the ConcomitBnt Agreement. He stated that the original
Concomitant Agreement covered parcels S and 7 which the City always treated together. The
present development is proposed for parcel 7 and the amendment to the Concomitant
Agreement with eliminate the requirement that parcel 7 participate in the cost of extending

lO'h Ave. SW. The Examiner left the record open for the City Attorney to respond to
Polygon's concerns. The City Attorney responded by letter dated March 27,1997, which
included a number of attachments.
11.
In 1990 the Federal Way City Council adopted separate concomitant agreements for parcel
7 and parcelS. At that time the Quadrant Corporation owned both parcels outright and
Polygon held options to purchase said parcels. At some point Polygon exercised its option
and closed its purchase of parcel 5 wlúch meant that Polygon owned parcel 5 and Quadrant
owned parcel 7. In July, 1991, Polygon sold the majority of parcel 5 (now known as parcel
5A) to the City, which along with the Federal Way School District, developed said parcel
into a junior high school and City parle Polygon retained ownership of the remainder of
parcel 5 which was known as parcel5B. The history of both concomitant agreements and
amendments thereto demonstrates that the City has treated the parcels separately when
warranted by separate ownership. Separate concomitant agreements were adopted for the
separate parcels. Resolution 93-128 was adopted to remove parcel 5A from coverage under
the Concomitant Agreement for parcel 5 upon its purchase by the City. The only time the
two parcels (5 and 7) were treated together was in Resolution 93-144 wherein Polygon
applied to develop parcels 5 and 7 together. The City's action in processing Quadrant's
application for development of parcel 7 Independent of any action by Polygon concerning
parcel 5B is correct and consistent with previous actions.
('
The City is correctly interpreting the Concomitant Agreement for parcel 7 by not requiring
said parcel to contribute to the capital cost of improving lOth Ave. SW. The original
Concomitant Agreement for parcel 7 provided:
The Owners shall agree to set aside and dedicate to the City the
necessary right-of-way corridor as established by the Federal Way
City CounciLfor the extension of 10th Ave. SW., 344th right-of-way
corridor.... The right-of-way for the route thus established shall be
dedicated by Owners to the City prior to the issuance of building
permits on either parcels 5 or 7 (paragraph 3].
This requirement covered dedication of right-of-way and not payment of capital construction
costs. Resolution No. 93.144 made it clear that improvement of lOth Ave. SW would be
triggered by development of parcel 5 and that responsibility for capital construction costs
would be borne by parcel 5 and owners of property adjacent to the IO'h Ave. S W extension.
Said resolution eliminated any responsibility for parcel 7 to contribute to the cost of lOth Ave.
SW improvements.
Paragraph 2D of the 1990 Concomitant Agreement for parcel 7 requires that the owner widen
Campus Drive along the property frontage prior to the issuance of occupancy permits. A

similar provision is included in the 1990 Concomitant Agreement for parcelS. The City is
proposing to modify the Concomitant Agreement and clarify that Quadrant is responsible for
widening Campus Drive only along the westernmost 400 feet or so feet of its property, and
that it is not required to widen Campus Drive or construct a left turn lane along the frontage
of parcel 5. City staff has concluded that a left turn lane is not necessary to mitigate traffic
impacts flowing from the project, but that widening Campus Drive will mitigate traffic
impacts. The amendment to the Concomitant Agreement requires Quadrant to dedicate five
feet of additional right-of-way along the frontage with parcel 7 to facilitate the City's
widening of said road. Quadrant will pay its prorata share of the widening project which is
calculated at $46,800.00
IV. CONCLUSIONS
From the foregoing findings the Hearing Examiner makes the following conclusions:
1.
The Hearing Examiner has jurisdiction to consider and decide the issues presented by this
request.
2.
The request for a zone reclassification and amendment to the Concomitant Agreement
satisfies the criteria set forth in Sections 22-302,22-299, and 22-490 of the Federal Way City
Code and therefore should be approved by the Federal Way City Council, subject to the
following condition:
Hours of operation shall be limited to from 7:00 a.m. to 11 :00 p.m.,
seven days per week; provided, however, that the driving range,
putting course, and batting cages shall close to the public no later than
10:00 p.m. The applicant shall diminish the lighting during the last
hour to that necessary to collect golf balls and perform maintenance
to thefacility.
RECOMMENDATION:
It is hereby recommended to the City Council ofthc City of Federal Way that the request for
a zone reclassification and amendment to the Concomitant Agreement be approved subject to the
condition contained in the conclusions above.

1. PROJECT SUMMARY
�
The proposed project consists of the construction of a golf learning center which
incorporates a number of uses. These uses include a golf center with a pro shop of
approximately 10,000 square feet, deli, administration offices, a 100 tee driving range, a
practice putting green, an 18 hole putting course and an 8 to 10 station batting cage. On
site parking will be provided for the proposed uses. The project is lacated on the south
side of Campus Drive, west of the Bonnevilfe Power Administration (BPA) power line
easement at approximately 7th Way Southwest:�
The subject property is covered bya concomitant agreement that was put into effect upon
incorporation of Federal Way on February 28, 1990. The concomitant agreement zoned
the site multifamily residential and provided for the construction of 233
townhouse/condominium type housing units. This agreement contains a modification
provision which utilizes the quasi judicial rezone process or Process III contained in the
Federal Way City Code (FWCC), Article VIII. In addition to amending the agreement, the
city attorney's office has determined that given the use is not allowed under the existing
RM 3600 zoning district, the subject property must be rezoned. It is the attorney's office
opinion that this use cannot be allowed through adding the use through the concomitant
agreement. Therefore, staff is recommending that through the concomitant agreement a
RM 3600-1 zone be established to allow for the proposed golf driving range facility.
In 1993, the property owners requested an amendment to the original concomitant (see
Exhibit D- Resolution 93-144). Resolution 93-144 addressed both the subject property
and Parcel 5, which is wned by Quadrant as well. This amendment is discussed in more
detail in Section 111 below �5
The applicant is requesting modification of a number of sections of the original
Concomitant Agreement. The following is a summary of the requested modifications:
Amend Section 2(B) of the Agreement to reduce the required buffer
adjoining the single family zoned property from 100 feet of Type I to 40 feet
of Type t landscaping.
2. Amend Section 2(D) of the Agreement to eliminate the requirement to widen
Campus Drive for the entire length of the property and construct a left hand
tum lane.
3. Amend Section 2(E) of the Agreement to allow poles supporting the driving
range protective netting up to 100 feet in height and building height of all
other struetures on the site is limited 50 feet.
4. Amend Section 2 to allow the construction of the Federal Way Golf Learning
�
�
Center as described in paragraph 1 of this document.
5. Amend Section 3 of the Agreement to eliminate the requirement for
dedication of right-of-way necessary for the extension of 10th Avenue
Southwest/344th Street Southwest.
6. Staff is recommending that the following subsections be added to Section
2 of the Agreement, which provide additional development standards for the
proposed project:
A. The uses and site shall be developed substantially in accordance with
the approved site plan.
B. The signage standards c�f Section 22-1600, FWCC Table 2
(Recreation) shall apply to the proposed project. Directional signs as
provided in Section 22-1599, FWCC shall be allowed.
C. A 100 foot landscape buffer of Type II landscaping along the length
of the subject property fronting on Southwest Campus Drive, east of the
proposed driveway for the development and adjacent to the proposed golf
driving range area as depicted on the attached site plan. A 50 foot
landscape buffer of Type II landscaping along Southwest Campus Drive west
of the proposed driveway for the development adjacent to the proposed golf
putting courses as depicted on the attached site plan.
D. A 25 foot landscape buffer of Type III landscaping along the easterly
property line abutting the BPA power line easement.
E. The proposed development shall comply with the provisions of Article
XIX, FWCC, Community Design Guidelines.
City staff performed a preliminary site plan review of the project in conjunction with the
rezone%oncomitant agreement amendment process and have found it in compliance with
applicable sections of the code. However, at the conclusion of the rezoning/amendment
process staff will complete the site p�an review in light of any additional conditions or
mitigation that are imposed during the course the public hearing process.

III. HISTORY AND BACKGROUND
When the City of Federal Way incorporated on February 28, 1990, the City entered into
a concomitant agreement for the subject property (vicinity map attached as Exhibit B).
This agreement insured the property owners that the zoning for the property upon
incorporation would be Multi Family Residential, RM 3600 which was consistent with the
King County zoning on the property at the time. The agreement further stipulated
conditions related to review of a building permit that was pending in King County at the
time, landscape buffers, street improvements on Campus Drive, building heights, housing
densities, phasing of development, commitment by the property owners that the housing
units being constructed be a townhouse/condominium type of housing, and dedication of
right of way for the extension of 10th Avenue.
The concomitant agreement provides a process for amending the agreement by the
owners. The agreement requires the owners to file application and the request be
5
• �
processed by using the same process as a quasi judicial rezone request (Process III,
Article VIII, FWCC). The City processed a request to amend the agreement in 1993
(Exhibit E) which resulted in a number of amendments to agreement being adopted
through Resolution 93-144. The following summarizes amendments made by Resolution
93-144:
1. Provide a 24 month extension of the 3 year timeframe stipulated in the
original concomitant.
2. Clarify the original concomitant condition related to 10th Avenue Southwest.
3. Define "proportional share" related to traffic impact of development.
4. Add a definition of "proceeding� to the concomitant.
5. Modify the reqt�ired buffers for parcel 5 and 7 in the areas that are
contiguous to the single family zoned parcels.
On February 12, 1996 the city received a Master Land Use Application from Quadrant and
the developer requesting site plan approval and modification of the concomitant agreement
for construction of the proposed golf park facility.
IV. ENVIRONMENTAL THRESHOLD DETERMINATION
The proposal to construct the golf center, putting greens, batting cage and associated off-
street parking was reviewed with respect to requirements of the State Environmental Policy
Act (SEPA). The proposed project exceeded the thresholds established in the Washington
Administrative Code (WAC) 197-11-800 Categorical Exemptions.
An environmental chedclist for the project was submitted to the city for review on June 28,
1996. Studies including a geotechnical report, wetland reconnaissance report and a traffic
impact analysis were completed and submitted in conjunction with the checklist. A
mitigated determination of nonsignificance was issued on the project and published on
November 20, 1996. The fifteen day comment period on the MDNS ended on December
5, 1996. The fourteen day appeal period on the MDNS ended on December 19, 1996. No
comments were received or appeals filed on the proposed project's MDNS.
V. AGENCIES CONTACTED BY FEDERAL WAY
As part of the review by City of Federal Way staff, site visits were conducted and the
proposal was circulated to the Federal Way Community Development Review Committee
(CDRC) consisting of the following agencies and city departments:
�
�
� City of Federal Way Public Works Department
Q City of Federal Way Building Division
� King County Fire District #39
� Lakehaven Utility District
VI. AREA CHARACTERISTICS
�
As noted previously, the site of the proposed golf learning facility is located on the south
side of Campus Drive abutting the BPA power line easement on the west at approximately
7th Way Southeast. The site is currently vacant and the full range of urban services are
available to the property. Current land uses in the vicinity include:
O West:
O North:
O East/South:
Undeveloped, land zoned Multi Family Residential - RM 2400 on the
north one-third and Single Family Residential - RS 7.2 on the
southerly two-thirds.
Multi family residential, zoned Multi Family Residential - RM 2400.
BPA power line easement, beyond the BPA easement single family
residential zoned Single Family Residential - RS 7.2.
Other major land uses in the vicinity include the King County/Weyerhaeuser Aquatic
Center and the Federal Way Little League Baseball facility to the east/northeast and
Saghalie Junior High and City Park to the west.
VII. HEARING EXAMINER DECISIONAL CRITERIA
As noted earlier in this report, the existing concomitant agreement on the subject property
allows for modification of the agreement subject to the process used for rezoning of
property. The process used for a quasi�udicial rezone or a zoning reclassification of land
within the city is Process III review. This type of rezone is subject to finro sets of decisional
criteria in the FWCC. The �rst set of decision criteria is contained in Section 22-302,
Article III, FWCC. The second set of decisional criteria are contained in Section 22-490(d)
of Article VIII, FWCC which contains Process Ilt procedures. The following are the
decisional criteria related to this application followed by a staff response:
Section 22-302 Criteria:
Criterion 1: The criteria set forth in Section 22-299 are met:
Section 22-299 criteria:
1. The proposed rezone is in the best inter+est of the residents of #he city;
and
7
�
�
2. The proposed rezone is appropriate because either.•
a. Conditions in the immediate vicinity of the subject property
have so significantly changed since the property was given it
present zoning and that, under those changed conditions, a
rezone is within the public interest; or
b. The rezone will correct a zone classification or zone boundary
that was inappropriate when established.
Staff Response:
A communitys quality of fife is often related in part, to the recreation opportunities
available to its residents. At the present time, Federal Way has one private golf
course (Twin Lakes) and no public golf facilities. The nearest public golf facilities
are those located in north Tacoma at the Northshore Golf Club. The proposed golf
park project would provide Federal Way residents a recreational service that is
presently not readily available to them.
In the 1980's the Campus Drive corridor developed primarily as a medium to high
density residential corridor. In recent years, however, this corridor from 1 st Avenue
South to 21 st Avenue Southwest has developed as a recreation corridor. The King
County/Weyerhaeuser Aquatic Center was constructed to host swimming and diving
events during the 1990 Goodwill Games. This facility has subsequently become a
venue for other major local, regional, state and national swimming and diving
competitions. Construction is now underway for an expansion of this facility. The
expansion includes a 5,000 square foot conference facility and redevelopment of
the onsite parking.
A second major facility recently constructed in this corridor is the Saghalie Junior
High/City Park which is located a short distance to the west of the proposed golf
facility. The Saghalie project was a joint venture between the City of Federal Way
and fhe Federal Way School District which combined a junior high school with a
major city park. This facility provides the community with several ball fields, soccer
fields, tennis courts, basketball court and a walking trail.
Other facilities in this corridor include the Federal Way Little League Baseball
' complex, Panther Lake and the BPA power line easement. Panther Lake is a
regional stormwater detention facility. The Federal Way Parks Department has
included improvements to the Panther Lake area in the City's Comprehensive Parks
& Recreation Plan. These improvements include the development of passive park
space such as interpretive trails that connect to the BPA trail system. Phase II of
the BPA trail will extend from 1 st Avenue South to Campus Drive. Currently, the
trail system runs from 324th/11 th Avenue to 1 st Avenue South. Constru�tion is
estimated to begin later this year.

Criterion 2: The proposed project complies with this chapter in all respects.
Staff Response:
This project is somewhat unique in that many of the development standards wili be
designated through the addendum to the concomitant agreement. Staff has applied
development standards that were deemed appropriate given the proposed uses ori
the site and the surrounding uses in the area.
Criterion 3: The site plan of the proposed project is designed to minimize all adverse
impacts on the developed properties in the immediate vicinity of the subject
P►�Pe�'Y•
Staff Response:
Two major concerns staff had regarding the proposed development were the
potential aesthetic impacts of the golf driving range on the surrounding area and the
potential impacts of the lighting necessary for a facility such as this. City staff has
worked closely with the applicant to address these concerns during the
environmental review process on this project. As a result of this process, either the
project was modified or mitigating conditions were included in the MDNS to address
the lighting and aesthetic issues. �
The applicant, as part of preliminary work on the project, held finro public meetings
on the proposed project at Saghalie Junior High. The first meeting was held in
September 1996 when the applicant mailed notices of the meeting to all of the
property owners in the Campus Highlands a�ea. Approximately 100 people
attended this meeting to discuss the project with the appficant. The second meeting
was held in November 1996. The applicant mailed out approximately 1,100 notices
of the meeting to property owners within 1,000 feet of the project. Approximately
30 people attended this meeting at which, the applicant discussed the project using
the 3 dimensional scale model that will be used during the public hearing before the
Examiner. The applicant has indicated that a he has received positive comments
related to the project and broad based support from the surrounding property
owners.
Criterion 4: The site p/an is designed to minimize impacts upon public services and
utilities.
Staff Response:
The site will not be intensely developed in terms of a development that requires an
extraordinary amount of utilities or public services. The site will require typical
�
• �
services and utilities such as power, water, sanitary sewer, storm sewer, telephone,
etc. and is not anticipated to have an adverse affect on these utilities or services.
Section 22-490(d) criteria:
Criterion 1: It is consistent with the comprehensive p/an.
Staff Response:
In 1995 the City of Federal Way adopted a Comprehensive Plan that complied with
the mandates of the Washington State Growth Management Act (GMA). GMA
requires that chapters or elements on land use, transportation, capital facilities,
ho�asing and utilities be included in a community's comprehensive plan. GMA also
allows optional elements to be included in the plan. The following goals and
policies of the comprehensive ptan apply to the proposed project:
LUP-15 Protect residential areas from impact of adjacent non-resider�tial
uses.
TP-5 Protect neighborhoods from traffic impacts. �
NEP-30 The city should restrict the rate and quantity of surFace water runoff
to predevelopment levels for all new development and
redevelopment.
Staff Response: Through the SEPA mitigation process and through conditions
proposed in the concomitant agreement, this project is consistent with the specific
comprehensive plan policies listed above. Additionally, the proposed project is
consistent with the intent of the Capital Facilities chapter of the Comprehensive
Plan in that the additional recreational uses provided by this project will be included
in the City's inventory of parks and recreation facilities. This will help the City
maintain the level of service for Federal Way residents related to recreational
facilities. -
Criterion 2: !t is consistent with all applicable provisions of the chapter, including fhose
adopted by reference from the comprehensive plan.
Staff Response:
As noted above, this proposal is somewhat out of the ordinary in that it is subject
to the terms and conditions of the concomitant agreement which will establish many
of the development standards to which the proposed project would be subject #o.
The project will be required to comply with the provisions of the concomitant and
any applicable provisions of the FWCC.
10
�
�
Criterion 3: It is consistent with the public health, safety and welfare.
Staff Response:
The proposed project is not detrimental to the public health, safety or welfare.
Potential adverse impacts were identified and mitigated during the environmenta)
review of this proposal. Further, given the project will provide a recreational
opportunity to the community that is currently not available locally, the project would
enhance the public health, safety and welfare of the residents of Federal Way by
adding to the community's quality of life by providing these additional recreation
facilities.
VIII. FINDINGS OF FACT
Staff provides the following Findings of Fact as they relate to the proposed project:
1. The subject property is covered by a concomitant agreement that became effective
on February 28, 1990, the date of incorporation of the City of Federal Way.
2. The original concomitant agreement was modified in 1993 by Resolution 93-144
which amended some of the conditions of the original agreement.
3. The subject property is located on the south side of Campus Drive, immediately
west of the BPA power line easement at approximately 7th Way South.
4. Ttye concomitant agreement established the existing zoning of the property which
is Multi-Family Residential, RM-3600, conditions related to the review of a building
permit application that was pending in King County, landscape buffers,
improvements to Campus Drive, building heights, dwelling unit density, phasing of
the project and a requirement that the units built on the site would be a
townhouse/condominium-type housing unit.
5. Land uses and zoning designations of surrounding properties include:
A. West: Undeveloped, land zoned Multi Family Residential - RM 2400 on the
north one:third and Single Family Residential - RS 7.2 on the southerly two-
thirds.
B. North: Multi family residential, zoned Multi Family Residential - RM 2400.
C. East/South: BPA power line easement, beyond the BPA easement single

6. The City's 1995 Comprehensive Plan Map designates the subject property as Multi-
Family ResidentiaL
11
� •
7. The concomitant agreement includes a process through which the property owners
can request the agreement be amended. The amendment process stipulated in the
agreement is the City's quasi judicial� rezone process (Process III, Article VIII,
FWCC).
8. Pursuant to the requirements of the FWCC, on February 12, 1996, the Owners and
Applicant submitted to the City a Master Land Use Application requesting
modification of the concomitant agreement and site plan approval to allow the
construction of the proposed golf learning center.
9. The City issued a Mitigated Determination of Nonsignificance on the proposal on
November 20, 1996. The appeal and comment period on the threshotd
determination ended on December 19, 1996. The City did not receive written
comment and no appeals were filed on the project.
10. Quasi judicial rezone applications are subject to finro sets of decisional criteria
contained in sections 22-302 and 22-490, FWCC. The proposed project is
consistent with and meets the decisional criteria of the above �noted FWCC
sections.
11. The use is proposed on a site which fronts on Campus Drive Southwest. This
section of Campus Drive, from 1 st Avenue South to 21 st Avenue Southwest, has
developed over the past several years as a recreational corridor. Major recreation
uses in this vicinity include the King County Aquatic Center, Saghalie Junior High
School/City Park, Federal Way Little League complex and the southern terminus
of the BPA Trail, Phase II project.
IX. RECOMMENDATION
The proposed Golf Leaming Center will comply with the FWCC, applicable sections of the
Federal Way Comprehensive Plan and any other applicable city regulations. Based on
the findings for this proposal staff recommends that the proposed concomitant agreement
addendum, which includes the rezoning of the subject property to RM 3600-1, be
approved.

THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF FEDERAL WAY, WASHINGTON
DOES HEREBY RESOLVE AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1. Adop�ion of Hearina Examiner Findinas.
Pursuant to Federal Way Zoning Code Section 22-302, the City
Council has considered � the application, and after full
consideration of the entire matter on the record before the Hearing
Examiner, including the Examiner's Recommendation, the City Council
hereby adopts by reference the Findings of the Federal Way Land Use
Hearing Examiner as contained in the Examiner's Recommendation on
Amendment to the Concomitant Agreements, Section III, which
document is attached hereto as Exhibit B, and incorporated herein
by reference, with the clarif ication that the f indings are adopted
solely to the extent they relate to that portion of the
applications approved herein.
SECTION 2. Criteria to Rezone. The City Council adopts by
reference the Findings of Specifie Criteria which an applicant must
meet in order to obtain a quasi-judicial project related rezone
pursuant to Federal Way Zoning Code Section 22-302 (referencing
Section 22-299) as contained in the Examiner's Recommendation on
Amendment to the Concomitants, Finding Number 7, (A), (B), and (C),
with the clarification that the findings are adopted solely to the
extent they relate to that portion of the applications approved
herein.
RES ,� 93-144 - PAGE 4
. , � �
SECTION 3. Council Findincrs on Request A(1). The Council
� finds that the application to amend the Concomitant Agreements for
Campus Crest, parcel B of parcel 5, and Campus Highlands, parcel 7,
with respect to Request A(1) to amend paragraph 11 of the
Concomitants to allow the applicants 24 months following resolution
of issues surrounding the alignment of lOth Avenue South to proceed
with the development proposal pursuant to the terms of the
Concomitant are ��� ::_'`�����i�'�e�`:��td��� �he
�
C3�y,'`and as such, do not meet the criteria set forth in Section
22- of the Federal Way City Code. Compliance with this criteria
is a condition precedent to approval of this portion of the
application, and accordingly, this portion of the application must
be denied. The Council finds that the approval of this condition
would grant ta applicants a"guaranteed" zoning designation for
this property.
While the Council has no present intentions to consider a
rezone of the subject property, the City must comply with the
provisions of the Growth Management Act. Compliance will require
adoption of a comprehensive plan from which will flow zoning
designations consistent with the adopted comprehensive plan
designations. �
Any grant of a guaranteed zoning designation for a specified
term of years may hinder any future potential of the City Council
to adopt zoning designations determined to be in the best interest
of the residents of the City.
RES ,� 93-144 - PAGE 5
. � �
---- �
In addition, in 1990, the City of Federal Way adopted an
Interim Comprehensive Plan. The Interim Comprehensive Plan states�
that it is a"statement of the conumunity's desires and goals for
the future development of the City and provides the framework for
a continuinq planninq process that will beqin with the adoption of
this plan." Council further finds that any guaranteed zoning
designation would be adverse to the City's ability to exercise its
goal of carrying out a"continuing planning process." .
Finally, the Interim Comprehensive Plan Framework Policy IV,
as adopted by the City Council, states that the purpose of the
Federal Way Comprehensive Plan is to "provide a process for
continuous updatinq and amendment of the Plan and its implementinq
plans and regulations." Accordingly, the City Council finds that
any grant of a guaranteed zoning designation for a term of years
would not be consistent with the Comprehensive Plan Framework
Policy to provide for continuous updating and amendment of the Plan
and its implementing plans and regulations.
SECTION 4. Application AAnroval. The Application to Amend
the Concomitant Agreements for, Campus Crest, parcel B of parcel 5,
and Campus Highlands, parcel 7, Federal Way File No. UPR-92-0017,
is approved with respect to the following provisions:
Request�A: 2. Clarify the agreement to address the
funding for the construction of lOth Avenue Southwest.
3. Define "Proportional Share" as used in the
agreements for the purpose of calculating the development traffic
impact.

10o foot Type I Buffer for the portions of parcel 5 and 7 adjoininq
single family zoning to 60 feet. Construction of a solid board

adoption of this resolution, and shall permit the applicant herein
to develop the subject properties, pursuant to the Concomitant
Agreements, as amended hereby.

application therefore, which shall be considered and heard in the
same manner�as a rezone of property. Such action shall not release
owners from any obligation assumed pursuant to the Concomitant
Agreement as currently amended, unless or until any future
amendment has been approved by the City.

Re: UPR No. 96-0023; SEP No. 96-0019, and SPR No. 96-0020
Dear Mr. Causseaua:
At the Public Hearing on 'l�esday, Febn�ary 18, 1997, concerning the above-referenced
applications, you asked for clarification from the City concerning the basis for processing an
application for an amendment to the concomitant Agreemeat for Parcel 7 of the Campus
Highlands while not taking any action with respect to the concomitant Agreement concerning
Parcel SB of Campus Highlands. In particular, we unde�stand that a concern was raised by
Polygon 2000, Inc. concerning whether the City could or should waive what Polygon claimed
were pra�acisting requireme,nts for Qua�drant to beaz, along with Polygon, the responsibility to: (1)
construct the extension of lOth Avenue S.W.; and (2) widen Campus Drive along the entire
frontage of Parcels 5 and 7. The City's response follows. As we understand that the record of
the proccecling has been held ope,� for our response, we request that this letter and its attachments
be included as exhibits and be made part of the record in this matter, referenced above. The City
does not object if the Examiner wishes to leave the record open for an additional period to allow
the applicant and/or Polygon to respond.
- �.r• - : �� � �� .��� Yt
The City's action in amending only the Concomitant Agreement for Parcel7 is correct. Unless
the City were to i�eceive a joint application for development of both ParcelSB and Parcel7, the
City has no legal option but to process an application for amendment of the concomitant
agreement with respect to Parcel7 as separate from anything affecting Parc�15B. The two parcels
are under separate owne�ship and, as such, can be developed separately, including any necessary
common project-spacific zoning changes or concomitant agreement amendments. For example,
as owner of Pazcel 7, the Quadrant Corporation could request a variance to allow proposed
developme,nt on Pazce17. The City would be legally required to consider that application on its
merits, without respact to whether a similar application had been made with respect to ParcelSB.
And, if the City were to grant such a variance, doing so would not necessarily entitle the owner
of Parcel SB to a similar variance just because the two parcels were originally zoned by virtue of
�
Mr. Stephen K. Causseawc, Jr.

�
U
a concomitant agreement. Similazly, the City is required to process and evaluate the Quadrant
Corporation's request for an amendment to the concomitant Agreement u�d�II�IIt of whether
the owner of ParcelSB has requested any concomitant Agreement amendments, and the City's
dec;ision on the Quadrant Corporation's appliration dces not neoessarily entitle the owner of Pazcel
SB to any particular result: applications for the individual parcels must be evaluated on their
respective merits, if any.
The histo�y of the concomitant Agreeme,nts with respect to each p�arcel supports this conclusion.
In 1990, the City Council adopted separate concomitant Agreements for Pazce17 and Parcel 5. i
At that time, the Quadrant Corporation owned parcels 5 and 7 outright, and Polygon 2000, Inc.
held options to purchase. Polygon submitted a site plan review application (SPR 90-0003) in July
1990 for Parcel7, and filed a site plan review application for Parcel5 in August, 1990 (SPR 90-
0222). Polygon then proc;eeded with efforts to develop both parcels, by undertaking traffic
analysis, site planning, PreliminarY engineering and architscture, geotechnical studies, and storm
water analysis. At some point, Polygon exercised its option and closed its purchase of Pazce15.
In July, 1991, Polygon sold the majority of Pazce15 (now known as ParcelSA) to the City of
Federal Way for $1.4 million. The City proceeded to submit plans for development of a junior
high school and city park (92-OOOlUPR). As part of these plans, the City applied for an
amendment to the Concomitant Agreement for Parcel5 to remove ParcelSA from the coverage
of the Agreement. Polygon opposed the requested amendment, claiming that the City was not
entitled to seek am�dment of the c�oomitant "without the concurrence of the other i�arkies to the
Agreement." See Letter dated Decembea' 8, 1992 from Polygon Vice Preside,nt Richard A. Pitt to
Federal Hearing Examiner at 2(capy attached). The Examiner rejected Polygon's protest, and
recommended approvai of the City's application and amendment to the Concomitant Agreement.
On January 19, 1993, the City Council approved Resolution 93-128, which amended the
Concomit�nt Agreeme�t and approved the City's request. Polygon did not appeal or in any way
challenge Resolution 93-128.
Instead, Polygon proceeded with its development plans for both parcels; however, it apparently
could not complete them in the time frame called for by its option agreement with Quadrant. In
December 1992, Polygon approached the C'ity conceming its own amendmea�t to the Concomitant
Agreements for both Paroels 5 and 7, to raduce landscaping buffer requirements and to clarify the
requirement for improvement of an extension of lOth Avenue. Polygon also asked the City to
confirm in writing that Polygon's delay in developing Pazcels 5 and 7 was not Polygon's fault,
'See Concomitant Agreement Relating to the Zoning of That Certain Parcel of Property
Known As the Campus Highlands Town Home Property (Parcel 'n, dated February 27, 1990;
Concomitant Agreement Relating to the Zoning of That Certain Pazcel of Property Commonly
Known as the Campus Crest Properiy (Parcel5), dated February 27, 1990 (Copies attached).

but ra.ther was due to the need to wait for the City to complete its study of alignment options for
the lOth Avenue extensian. Polygon also aslaed the City to agree not to initiate any further rezone
of Pazcels 5 or 7 unti124 months after the City had resolved the alignment issues surmunding
extension of lOth Avenue. See Letter dated December 3, 1992 from Polygon Senior Vive
President Gary A. Young to Kenneth E. Nyberg at 2(copy attached).
The City did not provide the confirmation Polygon requested concerning delay, but did provide
a letter of understanding confirming City staff's agreement to amendment of the Concomitant
Agreements to provide Polygon an additiona124 months following resolution of lOth Aveuue
alignment issues, before the City would consider rezoning the property. The letter also clarified
that the lOth Avenue S.W. impmvem�t requirements would be Polygon's responsibility, by tying
improvements to development bv Po y.gon:
In addition, the Concomitants should be clarified to state that in the event of
n� d�velovm - by Po�gon� Po yg on a�*�c tc� c�nstr�ct lOtih_ AvenLe, or,
as its sole option, contribute its proportional share of the cost of the construction
of lOth Avenue, provided that the first monies paid shall be used, or Polygon shall
receive credit towazd its proportional share, in an amount equal to the cost to
construct the minimum road necessary to access the Polygon development ....
"Proportional share", as used within the Concomitants, is defined to be:
praportional share based upon the formula currently used by the City to calculate
development traffic impact, with a furthes� clarification that at a minimum, �
�arlies contribLtin�n��mm�ortio al chare woLd cb�tit�itP Polygon P�rcpl S�nd
�iacen �1�y owners ('n 1� ing he itvl; provided however, if lOth Avenue
when oonstructed benefits solely Polygon Parcel5 i.e. (Existing solely as an access
road to Polygon Parcel 5 development), the City shall not contribute any dollars
toward construction, but would agree to dedicate that one-half portion of the right-
of-way needed for proper intersection alignment.
Letter dat�d December 14, 1992 from Assistant City Manager Kenneth Nyberg to Polygon Seauor
Vice President Gary A. Young at 2(copy attached) (emphasis added).
Thereafter, Polygon applied for an amendment to both of the Concomitant Agreements. Its
applications contained two parts, "Request A" and "Request B." Request A included the various
items agreed upon and memorialized in Mr. Nyberg's December 14, 1992 letter to Gary A.
Young, while Request B dealt with the reduction in landscape buffers between the sites and
existing single family zoning. See Staff Report, dated April 13, 1993, UPR 92-0017, at 3(copy
attached). The Hearing Examiner recommended that the Council approved the changes "as
requested." Hearing Examine� Recommendation, File No. UPR 92-0014, Hearing Examiner File

Whe,n the matte� was presented to the Council in June, 1993, the Council approved the majority
of Polygon's request, including its request to amend the Concomitant Agreements to clarify that
improvem�t of lOth Av�ue would be i+equired only when Polygon began developme�t of Parcel
5, and that a proportional share of the lOth Avenue improveme,nt costs would be contributed by ,
Polygon Pazce15[A] and the owners of other property adjaaent to the lOth Avenue extension
including the City (unless the lOth Avenue ext,e�►sion served only Polygon's Parcel5, in which
case the City was not obligated to pay). See Resolution 93-144 at 6. Because the City was
moving forward with planning required under the Growth Management Act, RCW 36.70A and
foresaw a potential nced to rezone either or both parcels, the Council rejected Polygon's request
for an additiona124 months of time before any rezoning. See Resolution 93-144, adopted June
15, 1993, at 5-7, Sections 3-4 (copy attached). Thereafter, Polygon chose not to eacercise its
option to purchase Parce17, leaving the Quadrant Corporation as the sole owner of Parcel7.
Thus, the history of the Concomitant Agreements, and amendme,nts to them, demonstrates that
the City has trea.ted the parcels sep2�rately, when warranted by separate ownership. Sepatate.
ooncomitant agreements were adopted for the separate parcels. Subsequently, Resolution 93-128
was adopted, to remove ParcelSA from coverage under the Concomitant Agreement for Pazcel
5. The only time the two were treated together was in Resolution 93-144, which occurred in the
context of Polygon's applications to develop both properties, together. The City's actions in
processing the Quadrant Corporation's application for Parcel 7 independent of any action by
Polygon concerning Pazcel SB is correct, and consistent with its prior actions.
IJe : �� � . �o� . - n - i
The City is also correctly refraining �from requiring the Quadrant Corporation to improve, or
contribute to the capital costs of improving, lOth Ave,nue S.W. The original, 1990 Concomitant
Agreement for Parcel ? provided that:
The Owners shall agrae to sez aside and dedicate to the City the necessary right-of-
way corridor as established by the Federal way City Council ... for the eztension
of lOth Avenue S.W. 344th right-of-way ooaidor. ....The right�f-way for the
rout� thus established shall be dedicated by Owners to the City prior to the issuance
of building permits on either parcel5 or 7.

z Presumably, Polygon did not exe�+cise its option to purchase Parcel7 because, without
the additional time from the City, it would not be able to develop the property within the scope
of its option with Quadrant and without risk thax the property would be rezoned to a single family
designation during adoption of the Comprehensive Plan.

which covered only dedication of right-of-way, not payment of capital c�nstruction costs -- was
subsequenfly clarified by Resolution No. 93-144, to make clear that improvement of lOth Avenue
S.W. would be triggered by development 1��gs�n, and that responsibility for capital
constru�tion costs would be borne by Po ygon Parcel_� and owners of property adjacent to the
lOth Ave,nue S.W. �ctension. Resolution No. 93-144 thus eliminatsd any contractual requirement
arising from the 1990 Concomitant Agreement that the owner of Pazce17 contribute to the costs
of lOth Avenue S.W. Further, the Quadrant Corporation cannot dedicate any right-of-way for
the lOth Avenue ext�.si�, because it does not own properiy adjacent to the proposed extension.
�us, ihe proposed am�dm�t to Conc;omitant A�em�t before you (attached) properly clarifies
that Quadrant is not required to dedicate property for the right-of-way for lOth Avenue S.W.
1. � �• � .,,� �, -
The 1990 Concomitant Agreements for Parcel7 required that:
Campus Drive, along the entire length of the subject property and parcel5, shall
be widened, in accordance with then applicable City standards, to allow for a
center turn lane. This improvemea�t shall be oonstructed and completed prior to the
issuance of oocupancy permits for the first phase of the pmject. ...[The] owners
may apply to the City for authorization to post a bond in accordance with the
applicable provisions of the Federal way Zoning Code to assure the constcuction
of the required improvements and, upon the approval and the posting of a bond in
compliance with the City oodes, oocuP��Y P�� may be issued proved all other
terms and conditions of this Agreement and all of the applicable provisions of the
Federal Way codes have otherwise been fully complied with.
1990 Concomitant Agr�ement, Parcel '7, at 3, Paragraph 2.D. A similar provision was included
in the 1990 Concomitant Agreement for Parcel5, requiririg widening of Campus Drive along
"the entire length of the subject property and parcel7. ..." 1990 Concomitant Agreement, Parcel
5, at 2, Paragraph 2.D. This paragraph, which assumed that Pazcels 5 and 7 would be developed
by the same e,ntity, was not affected by either Resolution No. 93-128 or Resolution No. 93-144.
The proposed Concomitant Agreement Amendments, attached to the Staff Report as Exhibit E,
state at Section 4 that the "requirement to widen Campus Drive for the entire length of the
properly and construct a left-hand turn lane" "shall not apply to the proposed Federai Way Golf
Learning Center project." In the course of reviewing the Concomitants to respond to the
Examiner's request, City staff realized that the proposed language was somewhat ambiguous
(because the existing left lane extends along a portion of the property but not "its entire length"),
and that some additionai confusion might arise given that the 1990 Concomitant requires the
owner of Paroel 7 to also widen Campus Drive along Parcel5. Consequenfly, the City intended
to revise the language contained in page 5, Section 4 Concomitant Agreement Amendments, to

clarify that the Quadrant Corporation is responsible for widening Campus Drive Qn13t along the
westernmost 400 or so feet of its property, and to state that Quadrant is not required to widcn
Campus Drive or construct a left-turn lane along Parcel5.
After further review, however, City staff concluded that exte,nsion of the left turn lane is not
ne�ressary to mitigate traffic impa�cts flowing from the proposed project but that instead, widening
Campus Drive itself will mitigate traffic impacts. Upon further discussions with Quadrant, staff
have revised the Amendment tio Conoomitant A�t to reflect �►at Quadrant will dedicate five
feet of additional right-of-way along Parcel7, to fa�cilitate the City's widening of Campus Drive.
This project is incorporated in the City's Transportation Improvement Program ("TIP"). The
revised Amendment to Concomitant Agreement (attached) also reflects that Quadrant will also
pay its pro rata share of the TIP project, which is calculated at 1.8 % of $2.6 million, or
$46, 800.00.

We hope that the foregoing satisfactorily answers die Examiner's questions. Again, the City does
not object to leaving the record open so that Polygon or Quadrant may respond to this letter.
Very truly yours,

3 The revised Concomitant Agreement Ame,ndme�ts also include the substituted liability
language agreed to by the applicant and the City. Because of publication deadlines, the City was
unable to include this language in the original proposed amendme�t submitted to the Examiner,
but did discuss the language as part of City staff's presentation during the public hearing. The
revised language can be found at page 6, Section 9 of the enclosed, revised Concomitant
Agreements.
