Background Summary: Resolution No. 5031 proposes to adopt the Comprehensive Downtown Parking Management Plan (CDPMP), which will guide parking policy development and implementation within downtown Auburn within the following framework: l To manage existing parking assets, assess current parking demand, forecast future parking needs, and develop a first-rate downtown parking system as an additional amenity that keeps up with existing businesses, projects underway, and future development; and l To balance business, residential, visitor, and commuter parking needs in light of redevelopment and increased transit services. Work on the CDPMP commenced in August 2011, following adoption of the Draft Work Plan by the Planning and Community Development Committee in July 2011. The draft Downtown Urban Center (DUC) On-Street and Off-Street Parking Supply and Demand Analysis (Task 1) was presented to the Committee in October 2011 and revised December 2011. Staff subsequently revised the analysis in December 2011, inclusive of feedback received from the Committee and updated data for several City- owned off-street parking lots in downtown Auburn. The draft Downtown Parking Survey Report (Task 2) was presented to the Committee in AUBURN * MORE THAN YOU IMAGINEDACT.B Page 9 of 189 July 2012. The report summarizes responses from Auburn Citizens at-large, downtown Auburn business and property owners, and a diverse cross-section of stakeholders to the Downtown Parking Survey conducted in May 2012, which gauged perception of existing parking and the preferred methods of moving forward in meeting future parking needs in downtown Auburn. The draft CDPMP table of contents was presented to the Committee in October 2012; the draft CDPMP (Tasks 3 and 4), which incorporated and refined the findings of the existing DUC On-Street and Off-Street Parking Supply and Demand Analysis and Downtown Parking Survey, was presented to the Committee in August 2013.The Committee did not express any feedback that necessitated revision of the draft CDPMP presented. The Auburn Transit Center parking portion of the CDPMP was further discussed with the Committee in November 2013 and refined per the feedback received. Adoption of the CDPMP (Task 5) culminates the Draft Work Plan. If recommended for approval by the Committee on January 13, 2014, Resolution No. 5031 will be submitted for potential City Council action on February 3, 2014. The second committee review will be the Public Works Committee.

The CDPMP is also guided by the 7 Simple Rules of Planning for parking: • Pinpoint the Parking• Strike a Balance• Crown the Customer King• Provide “Free” Parking• Reduce the “Last Mile”• Clarify the Code• Change It Up The plan then moves into an overview of the City’s parking system, including existing and future parking infrastructure and resources available and existing and future usage: • Of the approximately 4,879 parking spaces available inventoried as of December 2011, parking areas that experience particularly vexing problems of high occupancy are limited to Wayland Arms (King County Housing Authority) block and Multicare Auburn Medical Center blocks for on-street parking and (on weekdays) the Auburn Transit Center garage and surface parking lot blocks for off-street parking. • In the short term (5 years) there is an anticipated increase in parking demand of approximately 1,483 spaces and increase in parking supply of approximately 806 spaces. At peak hour, considering existing public on- and off-street parking spaces available in the entire DUC, a 243-space deficit is anticipated. • In the long term (10 years) there is an anticipated cumulative increase in parking demand of approximately 1,873 spaces and cumulative increase in parking supply of approximately 806 spaces. At peak hour, considering existing public on- and off-street parking spaces available in the entire DUC, a 633-space deficit is anticipated. Other components of the City’s parking system are the existing organizational and management structure, planning efforts, investment strategies, operations, and maintenance. Opportunities for improvement highlighted include: • Increase in coordination between City departments and divisions with regards to the parking system’s various components (on-street, off-street, citations, marketing, etc.);• Increase in regularity of planning for parking;• Increase in planning for parking impacts on special event days;• Continued coordination with police and potentially increase parking enforcement; and• Refinement of marketing and communications for the parking system. 1ACT.B Page 22 of 189 Case studies follow the review of these parking system components. Parking best practices, including those from the aforementioned case studies, are then summarized and collected into the Best Practices Toolbox (table), based on feedback from the parking surveys received from Downtown businesses and citizens and staff’s research and experience related to parking. Not all best practices are applicable to Downtown Auburn at this time. As such, the recommended actions for each best practice are identified as follows: continuation, modification, implementation, or no action. See Chapter 4 of the CDPMP for the entirety of the best practices toolbox. The CDPMP closes with a detailed action plan of existing best practices that the City can draw from for modification or implementation. The action plan includes proposed near-term recommendations (up to 1 year), short-term recommendations (1-5 years), and long-term recommendations (6-10 years), as follows: Near-Term (up to 1 year) • Revise timed parking limits to 3 hours throughout the DUC• Clarify existing code and implement a parking inventory database• Update the City’s website to make more useful for parking seekers• Design and install updated signs for on-street parking identifying availability and rules Short-Term (1-5 Years) • Expand and modify the residential parking zone beyond D ST NW per demand• Plan for spillover areas on the fringe of downtown• Designate one department or division that is the single point of contact for all parking-related matters, despite whatever organizational structure exists behind-the-scenes• Regularly readjust current parking practices at least every 5th year• Regularly reevaluate peak parking supply and demand every year• Evaluate funding options and implement a multi-faceted plan to finance additional public parking for anticipated parking deficits• Establish a parking ambassador program• Require organizers to better plan for special events• Develop and implement a 3-strikes parking enforcement policy• Design and install easy-to-read off-street parking signs• Create alerts for parking availability-impacting maintenance and construction activity• Design and install trailblazer signs to direct drivers to available off-street public parking Long-Term (6-10 Years) • Increase transit access, citywide/regionally• Revise timed parking limits, as needed• Continue to plan for spillover areas on the fringe of downtown• Increase transit access, around downtown 2 ACT.B Page 23 of 189 1. Introduction 1.1 – Purpose and Approach The Comprehensive Downtown Parking Management Plan (CDPMP) serves the same vision enumerated for downtown in the City’s Auburn Downtown Plan and Comprehensive Plan: to support the continuous revitalization of downtown Auburn as the physical and cultural heart of the Auburn community and development of a mixed-use district. To facilitate that vision, the CDPMP is a concerted effort to manage existing parking assets, assess current parking demand, forecast future parking needs, and develop a first-rate downtown parking system as an additional amenity that keeps up with existing businesses, projects underway, and future development. Initiative for developing the CDPMP emerged in a downtown Auburn at the crossroads of: • Balancing business, residential, visitor, and commuter parking needs in downtown; • Evolving parking demands in downtown, including a new sushi restaurant and gym on E Main ST and additional anticipated redevelopment in the Auburn Junction blocks south of City Hall, the fruits of various downtown public art programs and multi-million dollar investments in streetscape and infrastructure improvements; and • Expansion of Sounder commuter train services. The first step towards the CDPMP were taken with the approval of the Draft Work Plan by the Planning and Community Development Committee in July 2011. It has since progressed as follows: • October 2011 – Downtown Urban Center On- and Off-Street Parking Supply and Demand Analysis was completed. The analysis inventoried all of the parking spaces available within downtown, whether public or privately owned, and their occupancies throughout the day. • December 2011 – Downtown Urban Center On- and Off-Street Parking Supply and Demand Analysis was revised to reflect changes to the user-type for City-owned and/or –operated surface parking lots. • July 2012 – Citizens Survey/Business and Property Owners Survey/Stakeholder Interviews gauged people’s perceptions of parking in downtown, the anecdotal statistics of the parking experience. • August 2013 – Comprehensive Downtown Parking Management Plan (CDPMP) draft is completed. The CDPMP combines the previously gathered numerical and anecdotal statistics of parking in downtown with professional staff insight and experiences of other jurisdictions. • January 2014 – CDPMP is presented to the Planning and Community Development Committee for finalization and adoption of an administrative framework for staff to implement a first-rate parking system in downtown. • Future date – Public open houses will be conducted for further refinement of the CDPMP in future iterations. 3ACT.B Page 24 of 189 1.2 – Plan Components The CDPMP is organized into four components: the Parking System (Chapter 2), Parking Case Studies (Chapter 3), Parking Best Practices Toolbox (Chapter 4), and Parking Action Plan (Chapter 4). Chapter 2 examines the existing parking system, with a focus on City-owned and City-run parking in terms of physical parking resources, administration and planning, operations, and marketing. The chapter is divided into the following sections: Existing and Future Infrastructure, Resources, and Usage • How many and where are parking spaces located?• Where are the most vexing parking issues?• What are occupancy trends in downtown overall?• How will parking demand change over time?• How many parking spaces are expected to be added? Organization, Management, Planning, and Investment • Who in the City is responsible for what?• How has the City planned for parking in the past?• How does the City plan for parking in the future?• How and when does the City invest in additional parking spaces? Maintenance and Operations • How does the City’s parking operate on a daily basis?• How are parking regulations enforced?• How are permit fees and violation fines paid?• How are the City’s parking resources maintained? Marketing and Communications • How does the City get word out about parking options for businesses, residents, visitors, and commuters?• How does the City show where parking is located? Chapter 3 presents case studies of how the above-referenced parking system components are operated in other jurisdictions and institutions. Some policies and practices presented are intended to be best practices (whose applicability to the City is analyzed in Chapter 4) while others serve as cautions. Chapter 4, following review of the City’s existing parking system and case studies, presents the various best practices employed in the provision of parking, parking demand management, and operations of a parking system. Not all policies and practices listed in the toolbox are intended to be applicable for the City in this iteration of the CDPMP; instead, it is a collection of tools that should be considered whenever the City is looking to fine-tune its parking system. Chapter 5, the final part of the CDPMP, assembles a recommended action plan of near-term (up to 1 year implementation), short-term (1-5 year implementation), and long-term (6-10 year implementation) changes to the City’s parking system. 4 ACT.B Page 25 of 189 Aub urn WestAuburnSr HS AuburnTransitCtr Junc tion CityHall City HallAnnex MulticareAuburnMed Ctr PostOffice AuburnSr HS JusticeCtr Au b u r n W a y S A S t S E Auburn Ave N In t e r u r b a n T r a i l H S t N W G S t N W F S t N W D S t N W C S t N W A S t N W N D i v i s i o n S t A S t N E Au b u r n W a y N D S t N E G S t S W F S t S W E S t S W D S t S W C S t S W A S t S W S D i v i s i o n S t B S t N E D S t S E W Main St E Main St 2nd St NW 3rd St NW 1st St NW 3rd St NE 4th St NE 2nd St NE 1st St NE 1st St SW 3rd St SW 2nd St SE 4th St SE Legend Downtown UrbanCenter (DUC) SR-18 1.3 – Plan Area and Applicability The CDPMP, in terms of geographic implementation, primarily addresses parking policy within the Downtown Urban Center (DUC) zoning district, which includes the Auburn Junction blocks where development activity of significant scale is expected (Figure 1.3.1). 5 Figure 1.3.1 - Map of Downtown Urban Center (DUC) and Auburn Junction The physical effects of parking policies applicable to the DUC, however, may not be necessarily quarantined within the politically defined boundaries of the DUC. In response to that potential, staff have identified ACT.B Page 26 of 189 Potential Parking Spillover Areas (PPSAs) (Appendix A) where impacts of DUC parking policies may warrant extension of DUC parking policies into those areas (or at the very least, consideration of toolbox best practices in Chapter 4) to diffuse the impacts. PPSAs were identified based on the following criteria: • Areas within ¼-mile from the DUC and Downtown Business Improvement Area (BIA), whose boundaries include areas not otherwise included within the DUC; and • Where availability of on-street public parking is potentially impacted by spillover parking demand generated from the DUC and BIA and/or large businesses, institutions, public gathering places, and other high parking demand uses within the PPSAs themselves. Operationally speaking, the CDPMP’s recommended action plan in Chapter 5 primarily focuses on City- owned and City-run parking resources. Many best practices identified in the toolbox in Chapter 4, especially those applicable to parking in private development, have already been adopted as part of the development regulations applicable to the DUC contained in Auburn City Code (ACC) Chapter 18.29 or in the Downtown Urban Center Design Standards. 6 ACT.B Page 27 of 189 1.4 – 7 Simple Rules of Planning for Parking The 7 Simple Rules of Planning for Parking serve as guiding principles for development of Auburn-specific parking policy in this iteration of the CDPMP. They derive from the parking supply and demand realities observed in downtown Auburn, the feedback about downtown parking received1, and staff analysis of parking approaches taken in other jurisdictions. 1. PINPOINT THE PARKING Direct people effectively and efficiently to available parking. There is not a parking supply problem everywhere, all the time. 2. STRIKE A BALANCE Address the needs of overlapping and/or competing parking interests. In downtown Auburn, these needs are broadly identified as those of residents, businesses, visitors, and commuters. 3. CROWN THE CUSTOMER KING Prioritize visitor parking. Make visitor parking as easy as possible in prime locations. 4. PROVIDE “FREE” PARKING Avoid paid parking, whenever possible. While parking is never truly without costs, visitors, residents, businesses, and commuters should shoulder part of those costs only as a last resort. 5. REDUCE THE “LAST MILE” Shorten the distance, perception-wise, between parking space and destination. The vibrantly urban, compact, and walkable mixed-use character that downtown Auburn continues to grow into is inherently incompatible with the provision of plentiful home-, office-, store-, and restaurant- front parking. 6. CLARIFY THE CODE Write code that streamlines the process of parking system organization, management, planning, maintenance, and operations. 7. CHANGE IT UP Reassess each component of the CDPMP to meet current needs, as parking system conditions change and new parking best practices emerge. The CDPMP is not intended to be static; it merely establishes the framework for fine-tuning the parking system at any given time. 7 1 Besides specific problematic parking areas, responses from the Downtown Parking Survey conducted in July 2012 also identified the following parking concerns: the distance between parking space and destination, non-residents parking on residential streets, confusing and/or lack of parking signage, and the poor design of parking spaces. ACT.B Page 28 of 189 2. The Parking System 2.1 – Existing Parking Infrastructure, Resources, and Usage EXISTING INFRASTRUCTURE AND RESOURCES According to the Downtown Urban Center On- and Off-Street Parking Supply and Demand Analysis, which cross- referenced code-specified parking and available Public Works data with physical observations for on- street parking and cross-referenced the City’s and Google Maps’ aerial imagery and previous studies and reports with physical counts for off-street stalls, there were a total of 4,8792 parking spaces in the DUC as of December 2011. The different types of parking available, along with the general locations of each type (Figures 2.1.1 and 2.1.2), are as follows: • On-street public parking (unlimited time, time-limited, permit only, and loading zones) Locations: almost all blocks in the DUC • Off-street public parking (time-limited) Locations: within one to two blocks from E/W Main ST,between the Auburn Justice Center and the Burlington Northern-Santa Fe (BNSF) railroad tracks • Off-street permit parking3 (unlimited time) Locations: within one to two blocks from E/W Main ST,between the Auburn Justice Center and the BNSF railroad tracks • Off-street private parking Locations: almost all blocks in the DUC All on-street and off-street public and permit parking spaces in the DUC are located within an approximately 1/4-mile walking distance4 from Auburn Transit Center, Auburn Junction, and Multicare Auburn Medical Center blocks, where demand is currently and anticipated to be the highest (see ‘EXISTING USAGE’ under Chapter 2.1 and ‘FUTURE USAGE’ under Chapter 2.2). This includes parking spaces located across C ST NW/SW and the BNSF railroad tracks to the west for Auburn Transit Center and Auburn Junction blocks and parking spaces located across Auburn Ave N/A ST SE and Auburn Way N/S to the east for Auburn Junction and Multicare Auburn Medical Center blocks (Figure 2.1.3). That being said, there is opportunity for improvement in east-west connections to parking spaces. 8 2 Excluding on- and off-street public and private parking spaces inaccessible due to S Division ST Promenade construction, other off-street private parking spaces in lots inaccessible for data collection, and single-family off-street private garage and driveway parking; this underestimates the number of parking spaces as of January 2014. See ‘Chapter 3 – Methodology’ in the Downtown Urban Center On- and Off-Street Parking Supply and Demand Analysis for how parking supply in the DUC was specifically measured. 3 Including City employee and non-police fleet parking. 4 The widely adopted walking distance that a transit user will tolerate between point of origin and transit station.

On the weekend, the DUC experiences peak parking occupancy during daytime Saturday6, with 1,721 (35%) parking spaces occupied and 3,158 (65%) spaces available. 6 Due to limited resources, data collected on weekends for the Downtown Urban Center On- and Off-Street Parking Supply and Demand Analysis was limited to daytime and nighttime only, rather than specific time segments. For the same reason, off-street parking occupancies are extrapolated, as off-street parking observed does not include all off-street parking spaces in the DUC. Figure 2.1.3 - Parking Within Walking Distance (1/4 Mile) ACT.B Page 32 of 189 Block-by-block, peak parking occupancy also occurs during lunchtime on weekdays, with the average block 43% occupied. Few blocks, even when considering on- and off-street parking separately, ever exceed 85% occupied, the widely adopted threshold for optimal parking occupancy espoused by Donald Shoup, parking professor, researcher, economist, and author of The High Cost of Free Parking. For those blocks that do, very few exceed 85% occupancy for more than one time segment per day. There are 2 types of blocks with on- or off-street parking that exceed 85% occupancy throughout the day (Figure 2.1.4). The less problematic are blocks with available parking spaces nearby when exceeding 85% occupancy (blocks of moderate concern). For example, >85% occupancy in on-street parking on one block is potentially negated with <85% occupancy in off-street parking on the same block and/or <85% occupancy in on- or off-street parking within a 2-block radius. Blocks that fall into this category include the Auburn Avenue Theater, Truitt Building, and Agrishop blocks for on-street parking and the Truitt Building and (on the weekend) Multicare Auburn Medical Center blocks for off-street parking. The more vexing blocks are those without available parking spaces nearby when exceeding 85% occupancy (blocks of heavy concern). These include the Wayland Arms (King County Housing Authority) block and Multicare Auburn Medical Center blocks for on-street parking and (on weekdays) the Auburn Transit Center garage and surface parking lot blocks. 12 ACT.B Page 33 of 189 Aub urn WestAuburnSr HS AuburnTransitCtr Junc tion CityHall City HallAnnex MulticareAuburnMed Ctr PostOffice AuburnSr HS JusticeCtr Au b u r n W a y S A S t S E Auburn Ave N In t e r u r b a n T r a i l H S t N W G S t N W F S t N W D S t N W C S t N W A S t N W N D i v i s i o n S t A S t N E Au b u r n W a y N D S t N E G S t S W F S t S W E S t S W D S t S W C S t S W A S t S W S D i v i s i o n S t B S t N E D S t S E W Main St E Main St 2nd St NW 3rd St NW 1st St NW 3rd St NE 4th St NE 2nd St NE 1st St NE 1st St SW 3rd St SW 2nd St SE 4th St SE Legend Downtown UrbanCenter (DUC) Blocks of ModerateConcern Blocks of HeavyConcern SR-18 13 Figure 2.1.4 - Blocks of Parking Concern (Existing) ACT.B Page 34 of 189 14 2.2 – Future Parking Infrastructure, Resources, and Usage FUTURE INFRASTRUCTURE AND RESOURCES Prior to the Comprehensive Downtown Parking Management Plan (CDPMP), there has been no recent consideration by the City to expand on- and off-street parking resources in the DUC. Per the Comprehensive Transportation Plan, only one future roadway capacity improvement project identified (F ST SE between 4th ST SE and Auburn Way S) includes the addition of on-street parking and is located outside of the DUC. Additionally, neither land acquisitions for off-street parking nor improvement of existing municipal properties for off-street parking have been identified in the 2013-2018 Capital Facilities Plan. The Auburn Transit Center garage and surface parking lots (Figure 2.2.1), which are already at capacity, are not operated by the City, but by Sound Transit. While Sound Transit committed to a second Auburn Transit Center parking garage as part of the Sound Transit 2 package of improvements approved by voters in 2008, and the Comprehensive Transportation Plan recommends that Sound Transit immediately work with the City to create the additional parking, the facility has been put on hold as funding has not been identified. Funding of $1.3 million to $1.5 million, however, does exist from Metro for an Auburn Transit Center- adjacent parking facility that serves commuters during weekdays and other users at all other times, though no specific site has been selected and acquired. The funding originates from the sale agreement for the existing Metro park and ride near 15th ST NE and A ST NE, but no construction date has been forecasted. While the City is open to discussing interim Sound Transit and Metro parking solutions, the planned permanent Sound Transit- and Metro-funded parking spaces are therefore not included as available future supply7. Instead, any physical expansion of overall parking supply in the foreseeable future is anticipated to be code-required off-street parking constructed for private development in the DUC only. As of the report’s writing, only plans for one project has emerged that will noticeably increase parking supply in the DUC. The project occupies half of the northeastern block of Auburn Junction, where Figure 2.2.1 - The Auburn Transit Center garage (above) and surface parking lots (bottom) are already at capacity. 7 Though not anticipated, Scenario 1b in the ‘FUTURE USAGE’ subsection includes as available future supply the number of Sound Transit- and Metro-funded parking spaces matching the anticipated increase in transit demand, solely as basis for analysis of existing public parking resources’ ability to accommodate non-transit demand. ACT.B Page 35 of 189 development activity of significant scale is expected to occur8 in downtown Auburn. Per the plans received by the Planning and Development Department, the project will be a 5-story, 126- unit, commercial/residential mixed use building (Figure 2.2.2) providing a net increase of 1109 parking spaces to the parking supply identified in the Downtown Urban Center On-and Off-Street Parking Supply and Demand Analysis. Three (3) additional blocks of mixed use buildings totaling about 693 units are expected to be constructed in Auburn Junction10 and about 693 parking spaces will be added to the DUC’s parking supply11. Other potential private development and redevelopment activity in the DUC is unlikely to result in increases to the DUC’s overall parking supply. The Market Analysis prepared for the City by Gardner Economics in 2011 noted that structured and underground parking is the biggest barrier to development in the Auburn Junction blocks. In addition, the Auburn Junction Design Guidelines allow for exemption from providing on-site parking for non-residential uses if “adequate parking in public rights-of-way and offsite public facilities” can be demonstrated. For the rest of the DUC, ACC Section 18.29.060(H) also specifies that changes of use in existing buildings, expansions of not more than 25% in floor area, and new retail and restaurant developments of less than 3,000SF are exempt from providing any additional parking spaces at all. While any development or redevelopment activity in the DUC outside of those exemptions are required to contribute to contribute a fee in lieu of providing required parking spaces, the date of construction for a City parking structure, if any, is indeterminate. As such, about 803 parking spaces are anticipated to be added to the DUC overall in the foreseeable future. FUTURE USAGE Parking demand forecasting performed for the DUC derives from known projects in the pipeline, the Market Analysis, Sound Transit’s June 2013 CEO Report, and Sound Transit’s 2012 Station Access Analysis. The three (3) documents identify the primary demand-impacting trends and activities, as follows: 15 Figure 2.2.2 - Rendering of the proposed 5-story, 126-unit, commercial/residential mixed use building in the northeastern block of Auburn Junction. 8 Plans have been received for the northeastern block. The mostly City-owned southeastern and southwestern blocks sold October 2013. See ‘FUTURE USAGE’ subsection for detailed demand modeling. 9 The project will provide 54 parking spaces and repurpose the existing Cavanaugh parking structure, whose 56-space second floor was not included in the parking supply in the Downtown Urban Center On-and Off-Street Parking Supply and Demand Analysis, to provide the remainder of its code-required parking. 10 See ‘FUTURE USAGE’ subsection for detailed demand modeling. 11 Per the Auburn Junction Design Standards, all residential uses in Auburn Junction are required to provide parking spaces on-site per the one (1) parking space per dwelling unit ratio specified in ACC Section 18.29.060(H). ACT.B Page 36 of 189 Market Analysis (Gardner Economics) • Zoning for the DUC is still ahead of the market. Higher density development is not financially feasible under current market conditions. • Demand for retail space in Auburn Junction will arrive only after residential development has commenced. • Demand for office space in Auburn Junction is negligible and speculative office development is unlikely 2010-2013. • Smaller scale (80-100 unit) apartment projects would likely be viable with phased development of commercial space. Condominium project viability is unlikely. CEO Report (Sound Transit) • Three (3) Seattle-bound and one (1) Tacoma/Lakewood-bound Sounder commuter rail roundtrips will be added in the next 4 years (2013-2017), if plans do not otherwise change. Station Access Analysis (Sound Transit) • Auburn Transit Center arrivals by car (park and ride) will decrease over time with shift to arrivals by public transportation, bicycling, and walking. Since anticipated development and redevelopment for the DUC is unclear relative to anticipated development in Auburn Junction and the Sound Transit’s projections only extends to 2017, demand forecasting in the current CDPMP will be limited in scope to the subsequent 10 years. Specifically, parking demand in the DUC can be forecasted with reasonable accuracy in the short term (2014-2018, 1-5 years) and vaguer accuracy in the long term (2019-2023, 6-10 years). SHORT TERM (1-5 YEARS) Residential Parking Demand: The project at the northeastern Auburn Junction block will add 126 studio, 1-bedroom, and 2-bedroom apartment units per application materials received by the Planning and Development Department. As previously identified, the remaining Auburn Junction blocks are likely to collectively add 693 apartment units12. Over the next 5 years, construction of 819 apartment units can be assumed with reasonable confidence. Per the parking ratios specified in ACC Section 18.29.060(H), the total new short-term residential parking demand is 819 spaces. 16 12 The 126-unit building proposed in half of the northeastern Auburn Junction block is reasonably consistent with the Market Analysis. It is consequently realistic to assume that the other Auburn Junction blocks will be developed with no more than 126 units each per half block. Excluding the parcels that contain the Sunbreak Café, a successful restaurant entity that is unlikely to be developed, there are 2.75 blocks available for residential development. ACT.B Page 37 of 189 Commercial Parking Demand: The project at the northeastern Auburn Junction block will add 5,195SF of commercial space per application materials received by the Planning and Development Department. While no project has come forward for the other blocks, ground floor spaces in Auburn Junction that front E/W Main Street and S Division Street are required to be retail, restaurant, or personal service uses per the Auburn Junction Design Guidelines. Given the ratio of commercial space to parcel size in the proposed project in the northeastern block of Auburn Junction, it is assumed that the same ratio for ground floors in the remaining blocks will be developed as commercial space. Under that scenario, approximately 29,075SF of commercial space in total will become available as a result of short-term development activity, of which 22,389SF will be occupied in the short-term. This is based on the total SF of the remaining Auburn Junction parcels plus vacated alleyways, less the following: • The Plaza Park and Sunbreak Café parcels at the northwest Auburn Junction block; the former, a permanent public amenity and the latter, a successful restaurant entity; and • 6,686SF in the northwest Auburn Junction block, whose commercial spaces will unlikely be occupied in the short-term, assuming that this block will be the last to develop (since it has not sold and is not owned by the City, unlike most of the properties in the southeast and southwest blocks) and the lag between development of residences and occupancy of associated commercial space identified by the Market Analysis. The Market Analysis identified this commercial demand as retail or restaurant in nature rather than for office space. More specifically, it predicted positive localized effects of a residential base at Auburn Junction on demand for food (restaurants/groceries), apparel, healthcare, entertainment (public venues/ retail), personal care (services/retail), and books and magazines. As demand for groceries is already served by the existing Safeway just east of Auburn Junction, across A ST SE, it is unlikely that an additional grocery store will locate in Auburn Junction. Since groundfloor spaces in Auburn Junction are required to be retail, restaurant, or personal service uses, it is also unlikely that medical offices will locate in Auburn Junction. Should the occupancy of the commercial space at Auburn Junction be a scenario where it is divided evenly between the localized short-term commercial demand generated by the projected residential base, the following SF of occupancy and associated parking demand per ACC Section 18.29.060(H) is expected: • Food (restaurants) – 4,478SF at 0.5/4 seats13 = 26 parking spaces• Apparel – 4,478SF at 2/1,000SF = 9 parking spaces• Entertainment (public venues) – 2,239SF at 5/1,000SF14 = 11 parking spaces• Entertainment (retail) – 2,239SF at 2/1,000SF = 4parking spaces 17 13 Each seat is 15SF of floor area (excluding kitchens) on average per Design and Equipment for Restaurants and Food Service: A Management View, “A Business Link” (Government of Alberta website), and Chuck Gohn Restaurant Associates NW; 30% of floor area is for kitchens per “The Average Cost of Opening a Restaurant”, based on an Ohio State University Survey. 14 Per ACC Section 18.29.060(H) footnote (1), a parking study may be required to parking demand for uses not listed; in lieu of doing so for the CDPMP, parking demand for entertainment venues in Auburn Junction were calculated at 5/1,000SF, the ratio for commercial recreation (indoor) uses per ACC Section 18.52.020. ACT.B Page 38 of 189 18 • Personal care (services) – 2,239SF at 2/1,000SF15 = 4 parking spaces• Personal care (retail) – 2,239SF at 2/1,000SF = 4 parking spaces• Books and magazines – 4,478SF at 2/1,000SF = 9 parking spaces There is also about 12,254SF of commercial vacancy in the DUC overall, of which 3,200SF is expected to be occupied in the short-term by a business that provides spa-like services. Since personal care (services) require 2/1,000SF, the parking demand for this business is 6 parking spaces. The total new short-term commercial parking demand is therefore 73 spaces. Auburn Transit Center Demand Per the June 2013 CEO Report, Sound Transit intends to add one (1) Seattle-bound Sounder commuter rail roundtrip in 2013, 2016, and 2017, and one (1) Tacoma/Lakewood-bound roundtrip in 2016, for a total of 3 additional morning trips to Seattle and 1 additional morning trip to Tacoma in the short-term (thru 2018). Per the 2013 Service Implementation Plan (SIP), there were 963 daily boardings across seven (7) Seattle-bound trains and 21 daily boardings across two (2) Tacoma-bound trains at Auburn Transit Center. Assuming proportional growth between service and ridership, Sounder commuter rail service expansion in the short-term could potentially bring 425 new riders to Auburn Transit Center. Based on previous and October 2013 Public Works staff observations, 80% of arrivals at Auburn Transit Center are by car (park and ride)16. No statistically significant decrease in percentage of car (park and ride) arrivals is expected in the short term (thru 2018)17. Therefore, the new total short-term parking demand for 425 riders is 340 spaces. Displaced Parking Demand Existing off-street private, permit, and public parking lots in the Auburn Junction blocks will become permanently displaced as part of development in the short term. During lunchtime on weekdays, when the DUC experiences peak parking occupancy, the existing off-street parking lots in the Auburn Junction parcels to be developed are occupied by 251 cars; during the day on Saturday, when the DUC experiences peak parking occupancy on the weekend, the same are occupied by 39 cars18. The displaced total short-term parking demand is 251 spaces on weekdays and 39 spaces on weekends. 15 Per ACC Section 18.29.060(H) footnote (1), a parking study may be required to parking demand for uses not listed; in lieu of doing so for the CDPMP, parking demand for personal care services in Auburn Junction were calculated at 2/1,000SF, the ratio for retail uses in the DUC per ACC Section 18.29.060(H); retail uses below 15,000SF generate the same parking demand as personal service shops per ACC Section 18.52.020. 16 The 2012 Station Access Analysis noted 65% of arrivals by car (park and ride), and the 2011 State of the Stations noted 62% of riders surveyed arrived by car (park and ride). This is contrary to multiple observations made by the Public Works Department and therefore disregarded. 17 While the 2012 Station Access Analysis projects that arrivals by car (park and ride) by 2030 will decrease to 47% with land use projections or 33% with land use projections and Auburn Transit Center-adjacent improvement projects, this is not anticipated to occur based on previous trends observed by Public Works Division staff, demographic information on Sounder commuter rail riders, and anticipated decreases in existing transit services to and from Auburn Transit Center. 18 Extrapolated from off-street parking observed for the Downtown Urban Center On- and Off-Street Parking Supply and Demand Analysis, which does not include data for all off-street parking spaces due to limited resources.

Most of these available public parking resources are located within an approximately 1/4-mile walking distance of Auburn Junction, where the bulk of future non-transit demand is anticipated.

ACT.B Page 44 of 189 LONG TERM (6-10 YEARS) Residential Parking Demand Outside of the apartments developed in Auburn Junction over the short-term, the number of apartments developed in the DUC overall over the long-term is unknown. The Market Analysis did not analyze residential demand for the Auburn Junction blocks only, and no other City document projects the expected apartment units in the DUC overall over the next 10 years with reasonable confidence. Assuming residential market saturation for the DUC and absent any anticipated new significant residential development in the long-term, the total new long-term residential parking demand is hence 0 spaces. Commercial Parking Demand The final 6,686SF of commercial space developed in the Auburn Junction blocks will likely be occupied in the long term, to account for the lag between development of residences and occupancy of associated commercial space identified by the Market Analysis. Should the occupancy of the commercial space at Auburn Junction be divided evenly between the long-term localized commercial demand generated by the projected residential base, the following SF of occupancy and associated parking demand per ACC Section 18.29.060(H) is expected21: • Food (restaurants) – 1,337SF at 0.5/4 seats = 8 parking spaces• Apparel – 1,337SF at 2/1,000SF = 3 parking spaces• Entertainment (public venues) – 669SF at 5/1,000SF = 3 parking spaces• Entertainment (retail) – 669SF at 2/1,000SF = 1 parking spaces• Personal care (services) – 669SF at 2/1,000SF = 1 parking spaces• Personal care (retail) – 669SF at 2/1,000SF = 1 parking spaces• Books and magazines – 1,337SF at 2/1,000SF = 3 parking spaces In addition, assuming the remaining 9,054SF2223 of vacant commercial space in the DUC is occupied in the long-term as a result of the anticipated demand generated by Auburn Junction, and occupancy is divided evenly between the long-term localized commercial demand generated by the projected residential base, the following SF of occupancy and associated parking demand per ACC Section 18.29.060(H) is expected: • Food (restaurants) – 1,811SF at 0.5/4 seats = 11 parking spaces• Apparel – 1,811SF at 2/1,000SF = 4 parking spaces• Entertainment (public venues) – 905SF at 5/1,000SF = 5 parking spaces• Entertainment (retail) – 905SF at 2/1,000SF = 2 parking spaces 24 21 See ‘Commercial Parking Demand’ under ‘FUTURE USAGE – SHORT-TERM (1-5 YEARS)’ for detailed calculation methodology. 22 Based on an October 2013 physical survey of vacant commercial spaces in the DUC, excluding vacancies with off-street private parking. With 1,000+ off-street private parking spaces available at the weekday peak of lunchtime (11am-2pm), it is not anticipated that occupancy of vacant commercial spaces with off-street private parking will generate any on-street parking impacts, nor is it anticipated that the same occupancy will be statistically significant regarding the overall reduction of parking supply in the DUC. 23 Excludes any potential vacancies in the long-term, in the DUC. ACT.B Page 45 of 189 • Personal care (services) – 905SF at 2/1,000SF = 2 parking spaces• Personal care (retail) – 905SF at 2/1,000SF = 2 parking spaces• Books and magazines – 1,811SF at 2/1,000SF = 4 parking spaces The total new long-term commercial parking demand is therefore 50 spaces. Auburn Transit Center Demand While the June 2013 CEO Report and 2013 SIP identify Sounder commuter rail service expansion for the short term, no document projects service levels beyond the short term (thru 2018). For the purposes of estimating parking demand in the CDPMP and absent any projection or promise by Sound Transit, it is assumed that Sound Transit will mirror Sounder commuter rail service expansion in the short-term, and thus parking demand for 3 additional Seattle-bound roundtrips and 1 additional Tacoma/Lakewood- bound roundtrip in the long-term (thru 2023) is anticipated. Using the same assumption of proportional growth between service and ridership24, Sounder commuter rail service expansion in the long-term could potentially bring 425 new riders to Auburn Transit Center. Based on previous and October 2013 Public Works staff observations, 80% of arrivals at Auburn Transit Center are by car (park and ride)25. No statistically significant decrease in percentage of car (park and ride) arrivals is expected in the long term (thru 2023)26. Due to the anticipated mode shift in arrivals to Auburn Transit Center, the new total long-term parking demand for 425 riders is 340 spaces. Displaced Parking Demand Existing off-street private, permit, and public parking lots in the Auburn Junction blocks will already have become permanently displaced as part of development in the short term. The displaced total long-term parking demand is therefore 0 spaces on weekdays and weekends. 25 24 See ‘Auburn Transit Center Demand’ under ‘FUTURE USAGE – SHORT-TERM (1-5 YEARS)’ for detailed calculation methodology. 25 The 2012 Station Access Analysis noted 65% of arrivals by car (park and ride), and the 2011 State of the Stations noted 62% of riders surveyed arrived by car (park and ride). This is contrary to multiple observations made by the Public Works Division and therefore disregarded. 26 While the 2012 Station Access Analysis projects that arrivals by car (park and ride) by 2030 will decrease to 47% with land use projections or 33% with land use projections and Auburn Transit Center-adjacent improvement projects, this is not anticipated to occur based on previous trends observed by Public Works Department staff, demographic information on Sounder commuter rail riders, and anticipated decreases in existing transit services to and from Auburn Transit Center.

Though not only can the new parking demand be absorbed into the DUC’s total existing parking resources, inclusive of permit-only and private off-street parking spaces, it can also be adequately absorbed by only the total available public parking resources in the DUC. Most of these available public parking resources are located within an approximately ¼-mile walking distance of Auburn Junction, where the bulk of future non-transit demand is anticipated. There is opportunity for improvement, however, in east-west connections to parking spaces across C ST NW/SW and the BNSF railroad tracks to the west and across Auburn Ave N/A ST SE and Auburn Way N/S to the east. 30 27 City-owned and/or run unlimited time, time-limited, and loading zones on-street public parking and time-limited off-street parking open to non-permit holders.

Most of these available public parking resources are located within an approximately ¼-mile walking distance of Auburn Junction, where the bulk of future non-transit demand is anticipated.

Per the 2013 SIP, weekend Sounder commuter rail service is not anticipated. ACT.B Page 52 of 189 2.3 – Parking Organization, Management, Planning, and Investment ORGANIZATION AND MANAGEMENT The DUC parking system, which includes privately and municipally owned and/or operated parking spaces, falls under the authority of various private property owners and at least 6 departments and divisions within the City. These City departments and divisions include Planning, Public Works, Maintenance and Operations, Facilities, Police, and the Court Clerk. Some components of the parking system are mainly managed by one department or division while responsibility for others are shared by multiple departments and divisions. Responsibilities are not clearly identified in the ACC. For instance, while signage in the City’s off-street parking lots is collaboratively executed between the Facilities Department and Planning Division, the Public Works Division is identified as the responsible entity for “marking” off-street permit parking spaces for the City’s vehicles per the ACC. As such, there is opportunity for both increased coordination and clarity of roles. Examples of these opportunities include wayfinding signs (Figure 2.3.1) interspersed throughout the City (managed by the Public Works Division) that currently directs drivers towards landmarks only, but not to off-street no-permit parking in the DUC (managed by the Planning Division) and clarity of roles so that Planning and Public Works staff at the Permit Center can either directly provide information on how to pay or contest a parking citation (processed by the Court Clerk) or direct customers to the appropriate City contact with the information. PLANNING The City has not undertaken comprehensive planning for parking in the DUC with regularity, nor has it adopted any framework for future parking planning efforts. Downtown Parking Plan (1996) In fact, the last comprehensive parking plan (the Downtown Parking Plan) adopted for the DUC dates from 1996. The impetus for developing the Downtown Parking Plan was threefold: • Passage of the Commute Trip Reduction law in Washington State, which mandated employers of a certain size to undertake measures to reduce single-occupancy vehicle commutes; the Downtown Parking Plan examined 32 Figure 2.3.1 - Typical wayfinding sign, which does not currently direct drivers to off- street parking ACT.B Page 53 of 189 parking supply and demand management strategies as part of that mandate; • Recurring parking concerns expressed by the downtown business community; and • Anticipation of parking demand generated by a future transit hub (Auburn Transit Center). The scope of the Downtown Parking Plan included the following: • Extensive parking supply and demand analysis, including turnover rates, between the hours of 7am and 6pm for all areas of downtown Auburn29; • Future demand forecasting, incorporating projections from the City’s Comprehensive Plan tempered with observations of development trends in downtown Auburn; • Identification of significant downtown Auburn parking issues ; and • Parking policies to address identified parking issues. The parking policies fell under the umbrella strategy of reducing demand for parking, utilizing existing public parking resources more efficiently, increasing usage of underutilized private parking through lease and shared parking arrangements, and providing guidance for future purchase and establishment of public off-street parking lots in a manner that is phased, cost effective, and affordable for the City and downtown business and property owners. Some specific parking policies directly affecting the City’s physical parking resources have been adopted, such as the conversion of on-street parking spaces along the west side of Auburn Way S, between E Main ST and 2nd ST SE, to unlimited time, no-permit on-street parking, as it exists today (Figure 2.3.2). Most specific parking policies that more indirectly affect the City’s parking system have been adopted in the ACC. Policies such as maximum off-street parking requirements for development, shared parking and other required off-street parking reduction incentives, and employer incentives for non- single occupancy vehicle commutes have been adopted in ACC Chapter 18.52 – Off-Street Parking and Loading, ACC Chapter 33 Figure 2.3.2 - Looking south from E Main ST at on-street parking on the west side of Auburn Way S, implemented as a result of the 1996 Downtown Parking Plan. 29 “Downtown” did not include all blocks of DUC and was generally smaller in geographic area. ACT.B Page 54 of 189 18.29 – DUC Downtown Urban Center District, and ACC Chapter 10.02 – Commute Trip Reduction. Other parking policies have not been adopted and are no longer applicable currently. For example, the proposed policy of encouraging employees to park in the residential neighborhoods east of Auburn Way N/S conflicts with concerns raised about non-residents parking on residential streets in the Downtown Parking Survey. On the other hand, some parking policies were not adopted, but are still applicable, such as better use of signage to direct drivers to available City off-street parking. Comprehensive Downtown Parking Management Plan (CDPMP) (2013) The current CDPMP comes seventeen (17) years subsequent the last concerted comprehensive planning effort. It contains much of the same elements as the Downtown Parking Plan as the level of assessment performed is either equivalent or in excess of that in other cities’ plans. Unlike the previous parking plan however, which was prepared by consultants, the current CDPMP is a product of City staff. The CDPMP also adds the toolbox, which presents the various best practices employed in the provision of parking, parking demand management, and operations of a parking system. It is a collection of tools intended to be updated periodically and should be considered at a glance whenever the City is looking to fine-tune its parking system. In its current iteration it includes best practices for provision of special event parking and real-time parking information, parking topics not addressed by the previous plan. With the toolbox and as a whole, the CDPMP sets the framework for parking planning at a specific point in time and allows for flexibility to update its contents to suit future parking needs. INVESTMENT The City’s current investment in the provision of off-street parking in the future is based on a two-pronged fee-in-lieu-of strategy. All Auburn Junction development, per the Auburn Junction Design Guidelines, must provide required residential parking spaces on-site, though the same does not apply to non-residential uses. Although required non- residential parking spaces do not need to be provided on-site, a fee-in-lieu-of payment30 is required to be made towards a fund for a future parking structure in the DUC if the non-residential demand cannot be adequately fulfilled by existing on- and off-street public parking resources31. DUC development at large also have the option for fee-in-lieu-of payments per ACC Section 18.29.060(H) as an alternative to provision of required spaces on-site32. Unlike the fee-in-lieu-of payments for Auburn Junction development, however, neither the Downtown Urban Center Design Standards nor the ACC direct these payments toward funding a future parking structure in the DUC. 34 30 No per space fee-in-lieu-of payment is defined. Assessed on a case-by-case basis. 31 The radius from an Auburn Junction development within which existing on- and off-street public parking resources may be considered “supply” is not defined. 32 The maximum number of required on-site parking spaces allowed via fee-in-lieu-of payments is not defined. ACT.B Page 55 of 189 2.4 – Parking Operations, Maintenance, and Marketing and Communications OPERATIONS Operation of the DUC parking system falls to the City for on- street parking spaces and off-street public and permit parking lots and private property owners for off-street parking lots located on their own property. Activities associated with parking operations are minimal. None of the City’s on-street parking spaces are metered, so operation is no more than ingress and egress from these spaces. Additionally, no off-street parking lot operated by the City or privately owned ever “opens” or “closes” in the DUC by way of gates or personnel. The only operational activity for parking is undertaken by Multicare Auburn Medical Center, which contracts out to a private company for operation of its complimentary valet service (Figure 2.4.1). OPERATIONS – SPECIAL EVENTS Several seasonal events (Figure 2.4.2) currently draw big crowds to downtown Auburn and introduce additional demand into the existing parking system, while sometimes simultaneously reducing available parking supply. Activities associated with the operation of the parking system on event days, like non-event days, is similarly minimal. No personnel direct drivers to parking for the Auburn International Farmers Market, which takes place weekly in the Auburn Transit Center plaza during summer months. Nor do any personnel direct drivers to parking for the Auburn Good Ol’ Days festival, which takes place annually in the vicinity of E/W Main Street and closes several streets. Maps of parking locations on event days are not available online for either event and are generally not required for permit approval of special events. OPERATIONS – RATES, FEES, ENFORCEMENT, AND FINES RATES No rates for hourly or daily parking have been established for the City. The City’s on- and off-street parking spaces are available to drivers who park for the short-term or for the evening at no cost. Likewise, privately owned and operated off-street parking lots in the City do not charge for customer and visitor parking. 35 Figure 2.4.1 - Complimentary valet parking is advertised at the entrance to Multicare Auburn Medical Center on N Division ST. Figure 2.4.2 - Dancers at the Auburn International Festival (above) and cars along E Main ST for the Auburn Good Ol’ Days festival (below), both events that draw big crowds to downtown Auburn. ACT.B Page 56 of 189 FEES The City charges a $10 per month permit parking fee for parking in its off-street permit parking lots. Permit parking is available for business owners, employees, downtown residents, commuters who are residents of Auburn (until 2014), and Green River Community College students. Parking permits are acquired at the City’s Permit Center. Fees for permit parking are established administratively by the Planning Division. Privately owned and operated off-street parking lots may assess monthly parking fees for its tenants as well. Data for how many private property owners assess such a fee and how much they charge is unavailable. ENFORCEMENT For City owned and/or operated on- and off-street parking spaces, 2 parking enforcement officers in the Police Department enforce maximum time limits, amongst other parking regulations, and impound abandoned vehicles. Enforcement in off-street parking lots owned and operated by private parties varies; typically, private property owners contract out for towing services on larger off-street parking lots. FINES The City issued 3,383 parking citations in 2011 and levies a variety of fines for parking violations cited. These fines include $25 for parking in excess of the maximum allowed time for on- or off-street parking ($35 if not paid within 15 days of the parking citation’s issuance) and $30 for violations of loading zone restrictions. Other parking violations with no fines defined include parking in a no-parking zone and parking too far away from the curb. Fines for parking citations are paid and processed at the Court Clerk. Many parking citations can be waived by participation in community service for non-profits at a rate of $10 waived per hour volunteered. Fines for improper parking in privately owned and operated off-street parking lots are established by private property owners. Towing fees are set by the companies that private property owners contract towing services to. MAINTENANCE Maintenance of the City’s on-street parking, such as striping of spaces and signage, clearly falls to the Maintenance and Operations Division. Maintenance of the City’s off-street parking lots, on the other hand, is not as clearly designated in code or in practice. While the Facilities Department currently maintains off-street parking lot signs, the Planning Division designates off-street public and permit parking spaces, processes parking permit fees, and otherwise manages the City’s off-street parking resources. Both on- or off-street parking owned and/or operated by the City is swept and restriped on a more or less regular basis, but no formal maintenance schedule or plan exists. Likewise, private off-street parking is required to be consistent with the applicable parking code at construction, but is not explicitly mandated by 36 ACT.B Page 57 of 189 any City code section to perform specific maintenance per a formal schedule. MARKETING AND COMMUNICATIONS The City’s parking philosophy and parking policies require further refinement through the CDPMP as neither are currently clearly defined. Regarding the former, the existing Downtown Parking Plan does offer overall direction for the downtown parking. The Downtown Parking Plan, however, dates from 1996 and is not an actively referenced document for downtown parking policymaking. The City’s parking policies and fines themselves are contained in Auburn City Code, rather than at a centralized location on the City’s website, and occasionally contradict with what is signed. There are also opportunities for improvement in promoting City’s off-street permit parking program, administered by the Planning Division at the Permit Center, on the City’s website and on off- street permit parking lot signage. Avenues of promotion beyond the City are currently limited to the passing of information from the Auburn Downtown Association (ADA) and Auburn Area Chamber of Commerce to its members. The question of how to obtain a parking permit and where off- street permit parking exists for the general public is typically answered at the Permit Center, where a map of off-street parking available in the City is available (Appendix B). There is no map, however, that identifies the on--street parking spaces available to the general public. At on-street parking spaces , the City has installed signs that identify time limits, although these signs’ designs are not uniform On the other hand, signs with ‘FREE PARKING’ (Figure 2.4.3) in a large-sized font proclaim available public parking at each City owned and/or operated off-street parking lot. Due to permit parking spaces interspersed amongst public parking spaces (Figure 2.4.4), while signed and marked appropriately, drivers have expressed confusion deciphering whether a parking space was designated for public or permit parking. 37 Figure 2.4.3 - ‘FREE PARKING’ sign in large font at the entrance to the off-stree public and permit parking lots between E Main ST and 1st ST NE at B ST NE. Figure 2.4.4 - Off-street permit parking space (foreground) located adjacent to off-street parking spaces (background), in an area also connected to the Safeway parking lot. ACT.B Page 58 of 189 3. Parking Case Studies 3.1 – Parking Organization, Management, Planning, and Investment ORGANIZATION AND MANAGEMENT Location(s): City of San Diego Approach: One point of contact for all parking, multiple departments with collaborative authority over the parking system. Key Points: • The primary point of contact for the public is the ‘Parking Administration’, which processes residential parking permits, payment of parking citations, and provides general parking information from the City. • Behind the scenes, however, one department or division is clearly defined as the ultimate authority for a certain component of the parking system Location(s): City of Vancouver, B.C. Approach: One point of contact for on-street parking, one point of contact for off-street parking, authority over the parking system split along the same lines. Key Points: • The primary on-street parking point of contact for the public is Engineering Services, which processes residential and commercial on-street parking permits, payment of on-street parking citations, requests for on-street parking meters, and all other on-street parking related matters. • The primary off-street parking point of contact for the public is Easypark (Figure 3.1.1), a non-profit corporation owned by the City, which processes off-street parking permits, payment of off-street parking citations, and all other matters related to off-street parking. Location(s): City of Champaign, IL, City of Lynchburg, VA, City of Monterey, CA Approach: One point of contact for all parking, one department or parking authority with control over 38 Figure 3.1.1 - The City of Vancouver’s EasyPark website features parking lot finder, citation payment system, and citation appeal system for off- street parking - all located front and center on its homepage. ACT.B Page 59 of 189 the parking system. Key Points: • The one department or parking authority usually does not have control over parking standards for private development and enforcement of parking regulations. PLANNING As mentioned previously, the CDPMP matches or exceeds the level of assessment performed in other cities’ parking plans. Where they differ is when cities choose to undertake an effort to produce or procure a parking plan. Location(s): City of Bellingham Approach: Financial shortfalls in the budget. Location(s): City of Pasadena, CA Approach: Struggling downtown and the desire to spur new development (Figure 3.1.2). Location(s): City of Redwood City, CA Approach: Anticipation of new development and visitors who will mostly arrive by car. Location(s): City of Ventura, CA Approach: Simultaneous with update of Downtown Specific Plan. INVESTMENT Of the other cities’ parking plans surveyed, the Downtown Redmond Parking Study from 2008 examines the various options available for financing downtown parking infrastructure most comprehensively. The options below33, however, are not exhaustive nor meant to be mutually exclusive (use of multiple funding sources is the rule rather than exception for public financing). Options Affecting Customers Approach: Event surcharges Key Points: • Ticketing fees that are authorized by a public 39 33 Updated to include current financing options available and not identified in the study. Figure 3.1.2 - A dilapidated building in Old Pasadena in the 1980s (above) and the same building now (below). ACT.B Page 60 of 189 facilities district, such as the one established for the ShoWare Center in the City of Kent. Approach: On-street parking fees Key Points: • Parking meters and/or permits. Approach: Parking fine revenues Key Points: • N/A Options Affecting Businesses Approach: Business improvement area (BIA) Key Points: • Assessment on business owners based on square footage, assessed land value, and/or business and operation (B&O) taxes • Useful for funding parking operations and marketing Options Affecting Property Owners Approach: Local improvement district (LID) Key Points: • Assessment on property owners to repay bonds sold to finance improvement • Benefit to the land must be more intense than to the rest of the city and must be actual, physical, and material, and not merely speculative or conjectural • Useful for funding capital development (ex. parking structure) • Useful as one component of revenue bond without the need for general obligation bond backing (and drawing down the available debt capacity of the city) Options Affecting Developers Approach: Fee-in-lieu-of parking Key Points: N/A Approach: Options affecting developers – public/private development partnerships Key Points: • Ex. public acquisition of land and sale or lease of land/air rights not needed for parking • Ex. private development of mixed-use development with sale or lease back of the public parking portion upon completion, a turnkey project Options Affecting the General Public Approach: General obligation bonds Key Points: • Bonds issued to finance parking improvements underwritten by the general fund when 40 ACT.B Page 61 of 189 repayment of debt is unable to be serviced by parking revenues alone • Bonds can be issued by public vote or council decree • Legal limit for all voter-approved debt in a city is 7.5% of assessed property values; non- voted debt is 1.5% of assessed property values Approach: Refinancing general obligation bonds Key Points: • Refinancing existing debt and shifting savings from the general fund to debt coverage for parking improvements Approach: Revenue bonds Key Points: • Bonds issued to finance parking improvements underwritten by parking and other specific revenues rather than by the general fund; however, unless utilization and revenue projections (such as LID revenues) are strong and predictable enough to cover debt and operations and provide a coverage cushion, general obligation bonds may still be required • Legal limit for debt is not affected, unless general obligation bond backing is required Approach: 63-20 financing Key Points: • Bonds (tax-exempt) issued by a non-profit corporation on behalf of the city • Financed assets must be “capital” and must be turned over free and clear to the government by the time that bonded indebtedness is retired Approach: Public facilities districts (PFD) Key Points: • An independent taxing authority and district under Washington State statue that may charge fees for the use of its facilities, levy an admissions tax not exceeding 5%, and impose a vehicle parking tax not exceeding 10% • State law also allows PFDs to impose two different types of sales and use taxes: local sales and use taxes of up to 0.033% to finance regional centers and local sales and use taxes up to 0.2% to finance, design, construct, remodel, maintain, or operate public facilities (if approved by voters) Approach: Downtown and neighborhood commercial districts Key Points: • Uses incremental increases in local sales and use tax revenue subsequent establishment of the district to finance community revitalization projects, such as “publicly owned or lease facilities” Approach: Community revitalization financing Key Points: • Uses incremental increases in property taxes to finance parking improvements • Tax “increment area” must be established with approval from local governments imposing at least 75% of the regular property taxes 41ACT.B Page 62 of 189 • Tax increment is calculate at 75% of any increase in assessed property value Approach: Local revitalization financing Key Points: • Uses incremental increases in local sales and use tax revenues and property tax revenues within the “revitalization area”, additional funds from other local public sources, and a state contribution to finance parking improvements • Tax increment is calculate at 75% of any increase in assessed property value • State contribution applications are currently closed Approach: State and federal grants Key Points: • No current grants for downtown parking structures have been found Approach: Parking fund Key Points: • Establishes parking commissions and funding mechanisms for parking improvements and maintenance and operations Approach: General fund contribution Key Points: • For a one-time capital improvement or on-going contributions to maintenance and operations of a downtown parking system 42 ACT.B Page 63 of 189 3.2 – Parking Operations, Maintenance, and Marketing and Communications OPERATIONS Location(s): Various Approach: Parking meters and/or pay stations as a tool to promote parking turnover; act as a means of distributing limited amount of on-street spaces in commercial areas where demand exceeds supply; provide short-term parking spaces for shopping or personal errands; improve traffic circulation and economic viability of downtown commercial areas by maximizing the number of patron visits; and to generate revenue for the city. Key Points: • Individual conventional meters that accept coins and credit cards (City of Salem) (Figure 3.2.1) • Individual “smart” meters that accept coins, credit cards, and pay-by-phone, with different prices at different times of the day; has resulted in higher revenues and fewer parking citations, but may result in less turnover (City of San Francisco) (Figure 3.2.2) • Individual “smart” meters that accept coins and credit cards, resets any remaining parking time available to zero when a car leaves, and prohibits drivers from paying for more time when the car has already parked for the maximum time limit applicable to the parking space (City of Santa Monica) • Conventional pay-and-display pay stations that accept coins and credit cards (City of Boulder) (Figure 3.2.3) Location(s): City of Tacoma Approach: Parking operations and maintenance contracted out to Republic Parking Key Points: • Since 1987, Republic Parking has provided daily operational oversight for 2,500 parking spaces located within the city’s lots and garages • The city’s budget for 2011-2012 allocated $1,214,800 for operations and maintenance of 43 Figure 3.2.1/3.2.2/3.2.3 - Meters from Salem, San Francisco, and Boulder, respectively (top to bottom).

ACT.B Page 71 of 189 4. The Parking Best Practices Toolbox 4.1 – How to Use the Toolbox The Parking Best Practices Toolbox is a collection of general best practices employed in the provision of parking, parking demand management, and operations of a parking system. Experiences of other jurisdictions examined and guiding principles from planning and parking literature drove what best practices ended up in the toolbox. The best practices contained herein, however, are not meant to be static; some may be removed and other may be added to the framework of the toolbox as parking patterns and results from parking research continue to evolve. In addition, what is a parking best practice generally is not necessarily a parking best practice specifically applicable to the DUC. As such, the Parking Best Practices Toolbox has been structured as such: • Description of the best practice; • Whether or not the best practice is currently implemented; • The action proposed for the best practice (continuation, modification, implementation, or no action); and • Where to find additional information, if available. In short, the toolbox embodies an at-a-glance evaluation of best practices applicable generally and specifically, in the CDPMP’s current iteration.

ACT.B Page 74 of 189 54 5. The Parking Action Plan 5.1 – Near-Term Recommendations Best Practice 5.1.1 Timed parking Action: Modify Description: Revise parking time limits for the City’s on- and off-street public parking spaces to 3 hours throughout the DUC Pros: • Allows visitors to patronize multiple businesses at a leisurely pace, no matter where they park • Reduces the confusion of brought upon by a myriad of time limits and signs, of which some currently conflict with each other, even on the same street Cons: • Lacks the nuance of area-specific time limits that would address the various needs for different types of parking in the DUC • Additional costs will be incurred to replace signs if redevelopment and increased demand necessitate area-specific time limits again • May be more difficult for parking enforcement officers to discern cars parked all day (cars of commuters and downtown employees, for example) Best Practice 5.1.2 Parking policy transparency Action: Implement Description: Remove all code referencing the City’s on- and off-street parking, create a new parking database maintained by staff, and insert new code specifying available parking that adopts the parking database by reference Pros: • Eliminates code that currently conflicts with on-street parking as-signed/as-marked or is outdated • Parking database can be updated administratively • Parking database can serve double-duty as public information on where to park in the DUC Cons: • Parking database would require time to develop Best Practice 5.1.3 Centralized City parking webpage Action: Implement ACT.B Page 75 of 189 Description: Update website to include easy-to-locate map and information for on- and off-street public and permit parking available in the City (including potentially a ‘Where to Park If This Area is Full’ feature for areas and lots that experience peak parking occupancy in excess of 85%), pictures of all signs and explanations of what they mean, and better marketing for the City’s off-street permit parking program Pros: • Centralizes information for DUC parking • Provides information for alternative parking options when the desired parking lot or street is full • Provides information to help discern whether a parking space is public or permit, addressing the difficulty of doing so raised in the Downtown Parking Survey • Relatively easy and inexpensive to implement Cons: • In itself, may not be the most intuitive tool for finding parking spaces, especially for those that do not plan ahead or use smartphones Best Practice 5.1.4 Easy-to-read on-street parking signs Action: Implement Description: Design and install easy-to-read signs that identify availability and rules of on-street public parking Pros: • Relatively easy and inexpensive to implement Cons: • Additional costs will be incurred to replace signs if redevelopment and increased demand necessitate area-specific time limits again 55ACT.B Page 76 of 189 56 5.2 – Short-Term Recommendations (1-5 Years) Best Practice 5.2.1 On-street permit parking Action: Modify Description: Expand and modify residential parking zone beyond D ST NW per demand; begin by providing 2 free parking permits per single-family residence, duplex unit, or townhouse unit with less than 2 off-street parking spaces (garage or paved), 1 free parking permit per single-family residence, duplex, unit, or townhouse unit with 2 or more off-street parking spaces (garage or paved), and 1 free parking permit per multifamily unit with less than 1 off-street parking space (garage or paved) per unit; charge nominal fee for additional permit and raise fees as demand necessitates; tailor to each residential parking zone by inventory of on-street parking supply Pros: • Provides long-term parking for residents and prevents other cars from parking all day in spaces convenient and valuable to residents, thereby encouraging downtown employees and commuters to obtain off-street parking permits • Free permits to a certain extent is more or less in line with the overwhelming Downtown Parking Survey response of not having to pay for parking • Reinforces a “customer-first” ethic amongst downtown employees who choose to park on- street all day by providing impetus to purchase an off-street parking permit Cons: • Past opposition has stalled implementation of residential parking zones in areas just beyond the DUC Best Practice 5.2.2 Parking spillover area planning, downtown adjacent Action: Implement Description: Consider areas expected to experience impacts from DUC parking, even if not technically located within the DUC Pros: • Addresses potential parking spillover impacts from the DUC so that parking problems are not simply shifted away from the DUC into surrounding areas Cons: • Past opposition has stalled implementation of residential parking zones in areas just beyond the DUC Best Practice 5.2.3 Single contact for all City parking matters Action: Implement Description: Designate one department or division that is the single contact for all parking-related matters in the City, despite whatever the organizational structure is behind-the-scenes ACT.B Page 77 of 189 57 Pros: • Reduces confusion of who is in charge of parking in the City and increases transparency, as perceived by the public; is a more user-friendly approach to interactions with the public Cons: • N/A Best Practice 5.2.4 Regular readjustment of current parking practices Action: Implement Description: Adjust permit rates, time limits, residential permit zones, etc. to respond to current parking conditions in the DUC at least every 5th year in the parking planning cycle Pros: • Responds to current parking conditions in the DUC, implements current parking best practices for the City, and modifies or eliminates failing parking policies Cons: • Additional costs will be incurred if additional consultation and staffing from private parking consultants are required for implementation rather than City staff alone Best Practice 5.2.5 Regular reevaluation of current parking conditions Action: Implement Description: Evaluate supply and demand of parking in the DUC at peak weekday hours (11am-2pm) every year, comprehensively every 4th year in the parking planning cycle Pros: • Evaluates current parking conditions in the DUC to guide implementation of current parking best practices for the City and modification or elimination of failing parking policies Cons: • Additional costs will be incurred if additional consultation and staffing from private parking consultants are required for implementation rather than City staff alone Best Practice 5.2.6 Planning for investment in public parking, per supply deficit Action: Implement Description: Evaluate funding options, existing and potential overflow from Auburn Transit Center, and implement a multi-faceted plan to finance additional public parking, per supply deficit observed Pros: • Addresses potential public parking supply deficit identified by the CDPMP • Reduces risk with diversity of funding options utilized Cons: • Does not consider measures to reduce parking demand and congestion in problem areas of downtown without expanding the physical infrastructure of public parking ACT.B Page 78 of 189 58 Best Practice 5.2.7 Parking ambassadors Action: Implement Description: Assign parking ambassador responsibilities to existing parking enforcement and downtown patrol officers, including provision of information (and informal safety by parking enforcement officers) Pros: • Generates goodwill • Reinforces a “customer-first” ethic by pointing people in the right direction in terms of destinations and parking in the DUC, including alternative parking options when the desired parking lot or street is full • Decentralizes the delivery of information centralized at the City’s Permit Center and website • Provides additional transparency to parking policies • Diversifies the role of existing parking enforcement officers Cons: • Requires coordination between multiple departments and divisions and relies on one representative to convey each department or division’s respective parking policies • Additional costs will be incurred if additional consultation and staffing from private parking operators are required for implementation Best Practice 5.2.8 Planning for special events Action: Implement Description: Require organizers to designate event parking, distribute information for event parking, make multiple exits available, and establish pedestrian paths Pros: • Addresses difficulties experienced during event parking, as expressed in responses from the Downtown Parking Survey • Addresses potential parking spillover impacts from the DUC so that parking problems from special events are not simply shifted away from the DUC into surrounding areas • Generates goodwill with efficient organization of special events Cons: • N/A Best Practice 5.2.9 Soft enforcement Action: Implement ACT.B Page 79 of 189 59 Description: Develop and implement 3-strikes parking enforcement policy wherein the first 2 strikes consist of dismissible tickets and education on where to park Pros: • Generates good will • Allows those genuinely unfamiliar with downtown parking an opportunity to park “correctly” • Reinforces a “customer-first” ethic amongst downtown employees who choose to park on- street all day by providing impetus to purchase an off-street parking permit Cons: • Off-street permit parking demand already exceeds supply • May shift cars to unlimited time on-street parking on residential streets beyond the DUC Best Practice 5.2.10 Easy-to-read off-street parking signs Action: Modify Description: Design and install easy-to-read signs that identify availability of off-street public parking, identifier/location of off-street parking lot, and alternative parking options Pros: • Relatively easy and inexpensive to implement • Reduces perceived last mile when off-street parking lot is easy to identify and remember • Reduces parking demand and congestion in problem areas of downtown without expanding physical infrastructure of parking by shifting demand to underutilized off-street parking lots Cons: • May work too well, shifting parking supply problems to formerly underutilized off-street parking lots Best Practice 5.2.11 Parking alerts, for construction/maintenance Action: Implement Description: Alert interested parties and drivers through the City’s website, emails, text alerts, and pre- closure on-location signage so that they are not caught off-guard when regularly available parking becomes unavailable Pros: • Provides additional transparency to parking availability • Allows people to plan for alternative parking and/or transportation options • Decentralizes the delivery of information centralized at the City’s Permit Center and website (through text alerts and on-location signage) • Utilizes existing City communication channels (website and construction notices) ACT.B Page 80 of 189 60 Cons: • Additional costs will be incurred if additional technological resources are required (text alerts) • May become unwanted information overload if implemented incorrectly Best Practice 5.2.12 Trailblazer signs Action: Implement Description: Direct drivers to available off-street parking Pros: • Decentralizes the delivery of information centralized at the City’s Permit Center and website • Relatively easy and inexpensive to implement Cons: • May work too well, shifting parking supply problems exclusively to off-street parking lots • Additional costs will be incurred to replace signs if comprehensive downtown signage program is implemented in the future ACT.B Page 81 of 189 61 5.3 – Long-Term Recommendations (6-10 Years) Best Practice 5.3.1 Frequent transit access, citywide/regional Action: Modify Description: Evaluate demand and petition for demand-appropriate reductions to current 30-minute headways and expansion of evening service Pros: • Reduces parking demand and congestion by making trips to and from downtown more enticing and feasible, without expanding physical infrastructure of parking • Expands the customer base for the DUC • Responds to anticipated growth in demand required to support increase from current levels of transit access Cons: • May be difficult for buy-in from cash-strapped transit agencies Best Practice 5.3.2 Timed parking Action: Modify Description: Revise parking time limits for the City’s on- and off-street public parking spaces to area- specific time limits as-needed Pros: • Provides nuanced time limits that address various needs for different types of parking in the DUC, especially areas with high peak occupancy • Increases the ultimate number of visitors to the DUC by increasing turnover Cons: • May increase confusion brought upon by a myriad of time limits and signs • Additional costs will be incurred to replace existing 3-hour time-limit signs Best Practice 5.3.3 Parking spillover area planning, downtown adjacent Action: Implement Description: Continue to consider areas expected to experience impacts from DUC parking, even if not technically located within the DUC Pros: • Addresses potential parking spillover impacts from the DUC so that parking problems are not simply shifted away from the DUC into surrounding areas • May be easier to implement in the long-term as potential parking spillover impacts from the DUC become more identifiable ACT.B Page 82 of 189 62 Cons: • Past opposition has stalled implementation of residential parking zones in areas just beyond the DUC Best Practice 5.3.4 Frequent transit access, around downtown Action: Implement Description: Evaluate demand and petition for demand-appropriate reductions to current 30-minute and 1-hour headways, expansion of service area by rerouting, and expansion of evening service Pros: • Reduces parking demand and congestion in problem areas of downtown by reducing the last mile between parking space and destination, without expanding physical infrastructure of parking • Responds to anticipated growth in demand required to support increase from current levels of transit access Cons: • May be difficult for buy-in from cash-strapped transit agencies • Additional costs will be incurred if additional consultation and staffing from private paratransit operators for implementation is required ACT.B Page 83 of 189 Potential Parking Spillover Areas (PPSA's) Printed Date: Information shown is for general reference

Background Summary: Resolution No. 5013 sets the date of the public hearing for Franchise Agreement No. 13-37 for T-Mobile West LLC for February 3, 2014 at 7:30 pm in the Council Chambers. Franchise Agreement No. 13-37, Draft Ordinance No. 6491 is attached as back up documentation for Resolution No. 5013. Per Auburn City Code Chapter 20.06.010, a franchise shall be required of any commercial utility or telecommunications operator or carrier or other person who desires to occupy public ways of the city and to provide telecommunications or commercial utility services to any person or area in the city. T-Mobile West LLC has applied for a Franchise Agreement for wireless telecommunications facilities that are currently in the City’s rights of way on the west hill. These facilities were originally installed under a Right of Way Use Agreement with King County prior to the area being annexed into the City. This agreement will bring T- Mobile into compliance with City Code and allow them to obtain construction permits so that they can make repairs, upgrades and improvements to existing facilities. All construction permits would be reviewed, approved and managed through the City’s permitting processes that are a requirement of the Franchise Agreement. At this time T- Mobile does not intend to install any new facility sites in Auburn. Any new sites would require a review through City processes and an amendment to the franchise agreement.

Section 8. Damages to City and Third-Party Property Grantee agrees that if any of its actions under this Franchise impairs or damages any City property, survey monument, or property owned by a third- party, Grantee will restore, at its own cost and expense, said property to a safe condition. Such repair work shall be performed and completed pursuant to City Code.. Section 9. Location Preference and Interference A. Any structure, equipment, appurtenance or tangible property of a utility, other than the Grantee’s, which was installed, constructed, completed or in place prior in time to Grantee’s application for a permit to construct or repair Grantee Facilities under this Franchise shall have preference as to positioning and location with respect to the Grantee Facilities. However, to the extent that the Grantee Facilities are completed and installed prior to another utility’s submittal of a permit for new or additional structures, equipment, appurtenances or tangible property, then the Grantee Facilities shall have such priority. These rules governing preference shall continue in the event of the necessity of relocating or changing the grade of any City road or right-of-way.

Grantee shall keep the City informed of its long-range plans for coordination with the City’s long-range plans. B. The parties understand that Washington law limits the ability of the City to shield from public disclosure any information given to the City. Accordingly, the City agrees to notify the Grantee of requests for public records related to the Grantee, and to give the Grantee a reasonable amount of time to obtain an injunction to prohibit the City’s release of records. C. Grantee shall indemnify and hold harmless the City for any loss or liability for fines, penalties, and costs (including attorneys fees) imposed on the City because of non-disclosures requested by Grantee under Washington’s open public records act, provided the City has notified Grantee of the pending request and has given Grantee ten working days to obtain an injunction to prohibit the City’s release of records. Section 11. Relocation of Grantee Facilities A. Except as otherwise so required by law, Grantee agrees to relocate, remove, or reroute its facilities as ordered by the City Engineer at no expense or liability to the City, except as may be required by RCW Chapter 35.99 in the event the Franchise Area is required for use by the City in performance of its municipal services. In such event, City will give Grantee prior written notice of the need for such relocation of the Franchise Area. Notwithstanding the foregoing however, and pursuant to the provisions of Section 14, Grantee agrees to protect and save harmless the City from any customer or third-party claims for service interruption or other similar losses in connection with any such change, relocation, abandonment, or vacation of the right-of-way(s).

Following such transfer, Grantee shall no longer be responsible for any liability, maintenance, repair or removal obligations related to or arising from the transferred facilities. B. The parties expressly agree that this Section shall survive the expiration, revocation or termination of this Franchise. Section 13. Undergrounding A. The parties agree that this Franchise does not limit the City’s authority under federal law, state law, or local ordinance, to require the undergrounding of utilities that can be installed underground. B. Whenever the City requires the undergrounding of aerial utilities in the Franchise Area, the Grantee shall underground those portions of Grantee Facilities that can be installed underground in the manner specified by the City Engineer at no expense or liability to the City, except as may be required by RCW Chapter 35.99 or other applicable law. Where other utilities are present and involved in the undergrounding project, Grantee shall only be required to pay its fair share of common costs borne by all utilities it utilizes, in addition to the costs specifically attributable to the undergrounding of Grantee Facilities. Common costs shall include necessary costs for common trenching and utility vaults. Fair share shall be determined in comparison to the total number and size of all other utility facilities being undergrounded and the use thereof by all applicable parties Section 14. Indemnification and Hold Harmless A. The Grantee shall defend, indemnify, and hold the City and its officers, officials, agents, employees, and volunteers harmless from any and all costs, claims, injuries, damages, losses, suits, or liabilities of any nature including attorneys’ fees to the extent caused by Grantee’s performance under this Franchise, except to the extent such costs, claims, injuries, damages, losses, suits, or liabilities are caused by the negligence of the City, its agents, contractors, employees or invitees. Should a court of competent jurisdiction determine that this Agreement is subject to RCW 4.24.115, then, in the event of liability for damages arising out of bodily injury to persons or damages to property caused by or resulting from the concurrent negligence of the Grantee and the DI.B Page 98 of 189 ------------------------------ Ordinance No. 6491 Franchise Agreement No. 13-37 September 24, 2013 Page 9 of 15 City, its officers, officials, employees, and volunteers, the Grantee’s liability hereunder shall be only to the extent of the Grantee's negligence. B. The Grantee shall hold the City harmless from any liability for any damage or loss to the Grantee Facilities caused by maintenance and/or construction work performed by, or on behalf of, the City within the Franchise Area or any other City road, right-of-way, or other property, except to the extent any such damage or loss is directly caused by the negligence or intentional misconduct of the City, its agents, contractors, employees or invitees performing such work. C. The Grantee acknowledges that neither the City nor any other public agency with responsibility for firefighting, emergency rescue, public safety or similar duties within the City has the capability to provide trench, close trench or confined space rescue. The Grantee, and its agents, assigns, successors, or contractors, shall make such arrangements as Grantee deems fit for the provision of such services. The Grantee shall hold the City harmless from any liability arising out of or in connection with any damage or loss to the Grantee for the City’s failure or inability to provide such services, and, pursuant to the terms of Section 14(A), the Grantee shall indemnify the City against any and all third- party costs, claims, injuries, damages, losses, suits, or liabilities based on the City’s failure or inability to provide such services. D. Acceptance by the City of any work performed by the Grantee shall not be grounds for avoidance of this section. E. It is further specifically and expressly understood that the indemnification provided herein constitutes the Grantee’s waiver of immunity under Industrial Insurance, Title 51 RCW , solely for the purposes of this indemnification. This waiver has been mutually negotiated by the parties. The provisions of this section shall survive the expiration or termination of this agreement with respect to acts or events occurring prior thereto. Section 15. Insurance A.

E. Grantee shall have the right to self-insure any or all of the above- required insurance. Any such self insurance is subject to approval by the City. F. Grantee’s maintenance of insurance as required by this Franchise shall not be construed to limit the liability of Grantee to the coverage provided by such insurance, or otherwise limit the City’s recourse to any remedy to which the City is otherwise entitled at law or in equity. Section 16. Performance Security The Grantee shall provide the City with a bond, or other financial guarantee in a form and substance reasonably acceptable to the City, in the amount of Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000) running for, or renewable for, the term of this Franchise.

Section 17. Successors and Assignees A. All the provisions, conditions, regulations and requirements herein contained shall be binding upon the successors, assigns of, and independent contractors of the Grantee, and all rights and privileges, as well as all obligations and liabilities of the Grantee shall inure to its successors, assignees and contractors equally as if they were specifically mentioned herein wherever the Grantee is mentioned.

Background Summary: In February 2012, the Pierce County Regional Council (PCRC) sought applications from jurisdictions to designate Centers of Local Importance for the 2012 transportation funding cycle. Auburn submitted an application requesting that the Pierce County portion of the City be designated a local center. Subsequent to the transportation funding cycle, the Growth Management Coordinating Committee (staff committee that supports the Pierce County Regional Council) was charged with developing criteria for designating Center of Local Importance with the result being recommended amendments to the Pierce County Countywide Planning Policies (CPPs). At the March 21, 2013 PCRC meeting, the PCRC recommended approval of the amended CPPs to the full County Council. The County Council held a public hearing on September 10, 2013 and approved the amended CPPs on September 24, 2013. Once the County Council takes approval action, the amended CPPs are sent to the cities and towns in Pierce County for ratification. The amendments to the CPPs become effective when 60 percent of the jurisdictions in Pierce County representing 75 percent of the total population adopt the amendments. There is an 180-day approval process for amendments to the CPPs. Jurisdictions may take action to approve or disapprove the interlocal agreement, or the absence of a legislative action to disapprove the proposed amendment by March 23, 2014 then amendments are automatically in effect.

This discussion was initiated through a request by the Pierce County Transportation Coordinating Committee (TCC) with consultation with the Pierce County Growth Management Coordinating Committee (GMCC). As you are aware, we are on the verge of beginning another cycle of competition for federal funds managed by PSRC. Historically, for the Countywide share of the funds (not the Regional share), the policy has been that transportation projects in or serving local centers as well as Regional Centers were eligible to receive federal funding; however, since there was no definition or identification of these areas the TCC Scoring Committee has had to take a more subjective approach to determine if a project was really associated with a local center. Consequently, each member of the Scoring Committee has been left to determine individually which projects adequately support V2040’s “town centers and activity nodes” language. The PCRC is being asked to remove this subjectivity from this year’s Countywide funding scoring process. This may be achieved through the identification/ compilation of “Local Centers” as submitted by the County and cities and towns and agreed to by the PCRC. At this time PCRC is formally requesting a list and supporting documentation from each jurisdiction specifying its “local centers” and “activity nodes.” Supporting documentation could include any past legislative action, a completed study, a master plan or anything else a jurisdiction believes makes its case for the local significance of a particular area. The submitted local centers will be compiled on a map and presented to the GMCC along with the associated documentation. Please note that this process is completely separate from the CPPs formal process for jurisdictions to nominate new Regional Growth Centers and Manufacturing Centers. Again, it has not yet been determined by PCRC if this list will be used in the current round of Countywide competitive federal transportation funding through PSRC. If agreed to, we would use the list solely to aid in scoring application for the current (2012) funding competition. Our intention is to have the GMCC review the submitted proposals and forward a recommendation to the PCRC for consideration at its March meeting. Because of the tight timeline associated with the transportation funding process, it is vital that the GMCC be able to start reviewing any Local Centers to be considered at its next meeting on February 23. Please submit your list and supporting documentation to Toni Fairbanks, PCRC Clerk, at tfairba@co.pierce.wa.us. If you have any technical questions, please direct them through your GMCC representative to Ian Munce, imunce@ci.tacoma.wa.us. Only proposals submitted by 4:30 p.m. on February 17, 2012, will be considered. Thank you, Glenn Hull PCRC Chair.
