Background for Motion: Background Summary: This informational presentation will provide background and outline next steps on the conservation efforts related to the Soos Creek Botanical Gardens. This property is located on Lea Hill and features specialty plant collections, trails, wildlife habitat, community gardens, and cultural/educational programs. The property owner began developing the Gardens in the 1960s and seeks to permanently preserve the site and prevent incompatible development. In 2024, he approached the City about the option for the City to seek King County Conservation Futures (CFT) funds to preserve the property. The King County CFT Advisory Committee has recommended full funding, and the King County Council approval is expected on November 18, 2025, with grant funds becoming available in early 2026. There are multiple steps to move forward with this purchase, which will be brought back before Council in the coming months.

The Comprehensive Plan Map Amendment application seeks to change the designation of fifteen(15) parcels, Pierce County Parcel Nos.0520053001,0520053006,0520053013,0520053014, 0520053015,0520053016,0520053034,0520053035, 0520053036,0520053040, 0520053041, 0520053046,0520053055,0520053060,and 0520054081 from Neighborhood Residential Two to Public/Quasi-Public. CRITERIA FOR COMPREHENSIVE PLAN LAND USE MAP AMENDMENTS 14. The City's Comprehensive Plan contains the following objectives and policy guidance that support the redesignation to Public/Quasi-Public Designation as follows: • Land Use(LU)-111 The primary purpose of this designation is to address public needs while taking advantage of synergies with the adjacent areas where they are sited. • LU-112 Appropriate uses for this designation include facilities that serve the needs of the larger community such as public schools,active parks,city operated municipal facilities, police stations, and fire stations. Page 5 of 10 Page 83 of 465 Staff Member: Reed Date: October 6,2025 • LU-113 Innovative strategies to integrate the uses and sites into the areas where they are sited is encouraged.These strategies should maximize use of the site while minimizing fiscal impacts and impacts to adjacent areas. • LU-119 Coordination with other Institutional entities is essential in the implementation of the Public/Quasi-Public land use designation. • LU-127 Build on partnerships with school districts to expand public use of school facilities for recreation and exercise, and to improve public access to facilities for this purpose,as appropriate. • Capital Facilities (CF)-2 Encourage development where new public facilities can be provided in an efficient manner. • CF-5 Provide additional public facility capacity when existing facilities are used to their maximum level of efficiency(consistent with adopted standards for level of service). • C-10 Establish land use patterns that optimize the use of public facilities. 15. The purpose of the City's Comprehensive Plan document is to provide a policy basis for the zoning changes to ensure that the Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Ordinance are consistent as required by the following city code provision: "ACC 14.22.050 Conformance and consistency. The zoning, land division and other development codes contained or referenced within Auburn City Code shall be consistent with and implement the intent of the comprehensive plan.Capital budget decisions shall be made in conformity with the comprehensive plan." 16. The City code provides certain criteria for decision-making for comprehensive plan amendments as follows: "ACC 14.22.110 Decision criteria for plan amendments. A. The comprehensive plan was developed and adopted after significant study and public participation.The principles,goals,objectives and policies contained therein shall be granted substantial weight when considering a proposed amendment.Therefore,the burden of proof for justifying a proposed amendment rests with the applicant,who must demonstrate that the request complies with and/or relates to the following decision criteria, 1 —6 as outlined in the"Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map Related- Conclusions". CONFORMANCE WITH THE CRITERIA FOR PLAN AMENDMENTS(criteria in italics) 17. The proposed change will further and be consistent with the goals and objectives of the plan and the plan will remain internally consistent; Staff analysis:The proposed change from Neighborhood Residential Two to Public/Quasi-Public aligns with the goals and policies of the Land Use Element and Capital Facilities Element of the Auburn Comprehensive Plan 2024 update,adopted on December 16,2024.The proposed change is consistent with goals and policies to support a new middle school as intended by the site. 18. Whether the capacity to provide adequate services is diminished or increased; Staff analysis:The development will include frontage improvements per city code,construction of a single-land roundabout at Sumner Tapps Highway E and the middle school access, including a right Page 6 of 10 Page 84 of 465 Staff Member: Reed Date: October 6,2025 turn lane into the school,new gated driveway at 16'Street E and Sumner Tapps Highway E Easement for school bus access.Additionally, an estimated$518,056 traffic impact fee will be assessed for the new development. 19.Assumptions upon which the comprehensive plan is based are found to be invalid; Staff analysis:The current land use designation is Neighborhood Residential Two which implements residential uses.The District acquired 15 parcels of the subject site area with the intention of building a new middle school.Amending the 2024 Comprehensive Plan to redesignate 15 parcels to Public/Quasi-Public which implements the P-1 Public Use District which will allow for the development of Middle School No.5. 20.A determination of change or lack of change in conditions or circumstances has occurred since the adoption of the latest amendment to the specific section of the comprehensive plan that dictates the need for a proposed amendment; Staff analysis:The subject site area was originally intended for the development of a variety of housing densities,however,the site is now needed for the development of a new middle school.The District serves a rapidly growing population across Auburn,Algona, Pacific and unincorporated King County. The comprehensive plan land use map amendment request supports the development of Middle School No.5,which is anticipated to be completed and operational in 2027. 21. If applicable,a determination that a question of consistency exists between the comprehensive plan and Chapter 36.70A RCW, the countywide planning policies for either King and/or Pierce County, as appropriate,and Vision 2050; Staff analysis:The change,if approved,would continue to be consistent with the Growth Management Act(RCW 36.70A),the Countywide Planning Policies of Pierce County and"Vision 2050:Growth and Transportation Strategy for the Puget Sound Region". The proposal is consistent because it provides land suitable for a new middle school. Pierce County Countywide Planning Policies states in, Education Policy ED-3"Coordinate with other institutions or governmental entities responsible for providing education services,in order to ensure the provision of educational facilities along with other necessary public facilities and services and long with established and planned growth patterns through:3.1 The capital facilities plan element;3.2 The land use element;3.3 School Site location decisions;3.4 Coordination and,if necessary,formal interlocal agreements between school districts and other governmental entities exercising land use planning,regulation,and capital improvement planning functions..." 22. If the request is to change the land use designation of a specific property on the comprehensive land use map, the applicant must demonstrate one of the following: a. The current land use designation was clearly made in error or due to an oversight; b. The proposed land use designation is adjacent to property having a similar or compatible designation, or other conditions are present to ensure compatibility with surrounding properties; c. There has been a change in conditions since the current land use designation came into effect. Page 7 of 10 Page 85 of 465 Staff Member: Reed Date: October 6,2025 Staff analysis:The proposal is consistent with findings(b)and (c).The subject parcels are bordered by properties with the Neighborhood Residential Two land use designation to the north,east and west within the City of Auburn. Land to the south is unincorporated Pierce County and the land use designation is Suburban Residential. It is appropriate to have a new middle school that is surrounded by residential development providing opportunities for recreational and sport opportunities,and vehicular and pedestrian connections. CONFORMANCE WITH THE CRITERIA FOR REZONE (criteria in italics) 23. The rezone implements the policies of the comprehensive plan;or. Staff analysis: Rezoning the fifteen parcels to P-1 Public Use supports the policies of the Comprehensive Plan by aligning the rezone with the request for the land use redesignation of Public/Quasi-Public. 24. The rezone is necessary due to a substantial change in circumstances since the current zoning;and Staff analysis:The proposed rezone is necessary for the future proposal for a new middle school development.Schools are not an allowed use in the existing zoning of R-2, Residential Low zone. 25. The rezone bears a substantial relationship to the public health,safety, or welfare. Staff analysis:As stated in the applicant's narrative,the District serves a rapidly growing population across Auburn,Algona, Pacific and unincorporated King County.The rezone request supports the development of Middle School No. 5,which is anticipated to be completed and operational in 2027. The new middle school will serve grades 6 through 8 and accommodate approximately 800 students in permanent facilities,along with an additional 250 students in 10 portable classrooms. New recreational fields for track and field, lacrosse,football,soccer,softball and baseball are also planned for the development.The conceptual site plan for the school is sensitive to development needs and protection of the wetland critical area on the west side of the site,as well as retention of dense tree populations along the west,south,and eastern boundaries. The new school will increase student capacity, meet current educational and facility standards, incorporate advanced technology systems,and expand opportunities for community use,providing for public health,safety,and welfare of the students and residents of the City of Auburn and Auburn School District.

This category includes R-2 Residential Low and R-3 Residential Moderate as implementing zoning districts, neither of which permit public schools. As such, the District is requesting an amendment to the 2024 Description Comprehensive Plan to redesignate all of the subject parcels to Public Quasi-Public land use to of Work: support the development of Middle School No. 5, and to implement the P-1 Public Use District zoning. Rezone: Concurrently with the Comprehensive Plan Amendment, the District is requesting to rezone 14 of the subject parcels from their current PUD zoning to P-1, and to rezone the remaining parcel (currently zoned R-2 Residential Low)to P-1 as well. These three actions are necessary to align the land use framework with the construction of the new middle school.

PLANNING GROUP,Inc. Public Policy www.shockeyplanni ng.co m Major Amendment to the Lakeland Hills South PUD Boundary, Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map Amendment, and Rezones Written Statements and Narrative Auburn School District Middle School No. 5 June 3, 2025 On behalf of Auburn School District (District), the following requests are submitted: 1- Major Amendment to the Lakeland Hills South Planned Unit Development(PUD) Boundary 2- Annual Comprehensive Plan Amendment:Amendment of the City of Auburn Comprehensive Land Use Map from Neighborhood Residential Two to Public/Quasi-Public and 3- Two rezone actions:Zoning Map Amendment from Lakeland Hills South PUD to P-1 Public Use &Zoning Map Amendment from R-2 Residential Low to P-1 Public Use Background & Land Use Requests: The District owns 15 contiguous parcels, totaling approximately 46 acres, located south of the intersection of Lake Tapps Parkway SE and Sumner Tapps Highway East in the City of Auburn. The District intends to develop these parcels into a new middle school, referred to as Middle School No. 5. To develop the future Middle School No. 5, various land use requests are proposed to align with the educational facility project. Request 1 — Amend the boundary of the existing Lakeland Hills PUD to extract 14 of 15 of the District's parcels out of the Lakeland Hills South PUD through a Major PUD Amendment. Most of the subject parcels (except for one parcel, Pierce County Tax Parcel No. 0520053013, which is zoned R-2) are currently located within the Lakeland Hills South PUD zoning district, originally established in the 1990s. The Lakeland Hills South PUD district encompasses a large area in the southern section of Auburn and was created to provide enhanced flexibility and alternative residential development standards for a mix of residential densities. However, the subject site is no longer intended for residential subdivision development, as the proposed use is a new middle school. Therefore, the boundary of the existing Lakeland Hills PUD district should be amended to allow the establishment of the appropriate zoning. The area proposed for removal from the overall 768.79-acre Lakeland Hills South PUD is approximately 43.6 acres and would result in zero dwelling units, as it is designated for future middle school development. Page 96 of 465 Request 2 — Amend the 2024 Comprehensive Plan to redesignate all the subject parcels to Public/Quasi-Public land use to support the development of Middle School No. 5,and to implement the P-1 Public Use District zoning. Under the Imagine Auburn Comprehensive Plan Update 2024, the current land use designation for the subject site is Neighborhood Residential Two, which is intended to accommodate a variety of residential dwelling types. This category includes R-2 Residential Low and R-3 Residential Moderate as implementing zoning districts, neither of which permit public schools. Request 3 — Concurrently with the Comprehensive Plan Amendment, rezone 14 of the subject parcels from their current PUD zoning to P-1 Public Use, and rezone the remaining parcel (currently zoned R-2 Residential Low) to P-1 Public Use. These three actions are necessary to align the land use framework with the construction of the new middle school.

The District's compilation of parcels is bisected by Pierce County parcel 0520053025, which is a pipeline/powerline right-of-way owned by Northwest Pipeline Corporation, and parcel 0520053072, which contains a water tower owned by the City of Bonney Lake. These two parcels are not a part of the application. The total site encompasses approximately 46 acres and is currently vacant. It consists primarily of open,vegetated areas,with dense forest located in the western and southern portions. Power lines and gas lines run across portions of the site. Historically, the property included residential Written Statements and Narrative Auburn School District-MS5 SHOCKEY Page 3 v.,is.:cnnunn.- Page 98 of 465 homesites and areas used for commercial equipment storage. The homes were removed in 2006, and the equipment storage use ceased by 2009. Two wetlands, identified in the Critical Areas Report as Wetland A and Wetland B, are both depressional Category Ill wetlands. Historically, these wetlands may have been connected prior to land development activities that altered the landscape. Wetland A is located along the western boundary of the site and extends south toward Lake Tapps. Wetland B is situated to the west of the site. The subject site is bordered by Sumner Tapps Highway East along its northern and eastern edges. Directly across the highway to the north are the existing Four Lakes Apartment Homes, while to the east lies a densely forested area. Beyond the forested area are single-family residences and Lake Tapps Elementary School, situated within unincorporated Pierce County. To the west and south of the site is undeveloped land characterized by dense tree cover, wetlands, and overhead powerlines.The area directly south of the site also falls within unincorporated Pierce County. Requested Actions: Please see the Major PUD Amendment Map (Figure 3), Existing and Proposed Comprehensive Plan Amendment Maps (Figure 4 and Figure 5), and Existing and Proposed Zoning District Amendment Maps (Figure 6 and Figure 7) that illustrate the proposed changes.

Proposed Zoning: P-1 Public Use Map Date: 4/28/2025 Figure 7 Pays 164 of 463 Proposed Middle School Description: The District has provided a preliminary site plan drawing for reference purposes with this application. The FAC permit for the construction of the site and infrastructure has been submitted to the City of Auburn. Full site plan and design details can be found within that project file. The new middle school will serve grades 6-8 and accommodate approximately 800 students in permanent facilities, along with an additional 250 students in 10 portable classrooms. The main school building will be centrally located on the site and is proposed to be approximately 118,000 square feet in size. It will include spaces for administration, specialists, commons, a library, food services, and community use. Primary access to the site will be from Sumner Tapps Highway East, along the northern edge of the property, via a new single-lane roundabout located directly across from the Four Lakes Apartment Homes. A secondary, gated, and access-controlled bus entrance and exit will be provided at 16th Street East, along the eastern boundary, forming a new fourth leg of the existing signalized intersection. Vehicular access from Sumner Tapps Highway East will lead to two parking areas designated for visitors, parents, staff, and event attendees. Located south of the parking areas, the main school building will be accompanied by 10 portable classrooms, hardscaped play areas, and a designated bus drop-off and pick-up zone. To the west of the building and parking lots, two athletic fields are planned: the northern field will accommodate track and field events, football, soccer, and lacrosse, while the southern field will support ball fields and additional soccer and lacrosse use. In accordance with Auburn Municipal Code 18.52.020, 1.20 parking spaces are required per teaching station. With 40 teaching stations planned, 48 parking spaces are required; however, the project will provide approximately 292 on-site parking spaces, significantly exceeding the minimum requirement. The 15 parcels will be later be combined through a boundary line elimination. Pending approval of a capital bond, the new middle school is anticipated to be completed and operational in 2027.

Page 106 of 465 Major PUD Amendment ACC 18.76.140 Findings of Fact: Applications for a major amendment to a PUD shall only be approved if sufficient findings of facts are drawn to support the following: A. Adequate provisions are made for the public health, safety and general welfare and for open spaces, drainage ways, streets, alleys, other public ways, water supplies, sanitary wastes, parks, playgrounds, or sites for schools. The proposed Major Lakeland Hills South PUD Amendment, which would remove 14 of the District's 15 parcels from the PUD boundary, will continue to provide, and improve, public facilities and infrastructure serving the site. The future middle school will provide code-compliant street frontage improvements and utility extensions. Primary vehicular access will be from Sumner Tapps Highway East, aligned with the entrance to Four Lakes Apartment Homes, via a new single-lane roundabout. In addition, a gated, access-controlled bus entrance and exit will be located on 16th Street East, forming the new fourth leg of the existing signalized intersection. Pedestrian and non-motorized access will be enhanced with a new 10-foot-wide sidewalk and upgraded lighting along the site's entire street frontage. Open space proposed on-site includes perimeter landscaping, a track and field facility, soccer/football/lacrosse fields, baseball and softball fields, and a protected, undisturbed wetland area (Wetland A along the western boundary). B. The proposed major amendment to the PUD is in accordance with the goals, policies and objectives of the comprehensive plan. To align the City of Auburn's guiding documents, along with the Major PUD Amendment, a Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map Amendment is proposed to change the designation of all subject parcels from Neighborhood Residential Two to Public/Quasi-Public. Additionally, the concurrent Rezone request would change the zoning of 14 parcels from PUD and one parcel from R-2 Residential Low to P-1 Public Use. These changes are intended to support the future development of Middle School No. 5. Please see Comprehensive Plan section of this narrative that speaks to the how the proposed land use map amendment addresses the goals, policies, and objectives of the Imagine Auburn Comprehensive Plan Update 2024. C. The major amendment is consistent with the purpose of this chapter,ACC 18.76.010, provides for the public benefits required of the development of PUDs and does not result in only Written Statements and Narrative Auburn School District-MS5 SHOCKEY Page-12 Page 107 of 465 increasing the number of units that would otherwise be attained through a development using the existing zoning and subdivisions standards. The removal of the 14 affected parcels from the existing PUD boundary will not result in an increase in the number of permitted dwelling units. On the contrary, it will reduce the overall residential development potential, as the site is being repurposed for a much-needed public school rather than the higher-density residential use originally anticipated under the PUD.There are no dwelling units proposed with this Major PUD Amendment. D. The proposed major amendment to the PUD conforms to the general purposes of other applicable policies or plans which have been adopted by the city council. The proposed Major PUD Amendment, along with the proposed Comprehensive Plan Amendment and Rezone, establishes the necessary land use framework to support the development of a new middle school campus. This coordinated effort aligns with the overarching goals and policies adopted by the City Council, ensuring consistency across all applicable City plans and regulatory documents. E. The approval of the major amendment will have no more of an adverse impact upon the surrounding area than the approved Lakeland Hills South PUD as shown on the official Lakeland plan map. Approval of the Major PUD Amendment to remove the affected parcels from the Lakeland Hills South PUD, will not result in adverse impacts to the surrounding area. The area proposed for removal from the overall 768.79-acre Lakeland Hills South PUD is approximately 43.6 acres, leaving 725.19 acres as a part of the Lakeland Hills South PUD. The subject site would still be bordered by the broader PUD boundary, which includes existing residential and commercial development, and future allowances for additional residential density to keep up with market demands. ACC 18.76.090 Application for approval of major amendment to the PUD: a. The name of the proposed PUD or planning area and a general description of the proposed development requiring the major amendment, including descriptions of buildings, and other site improvements; The proposal is for extraction of 14 parcels, owned by the District, from the larger Lakeland Hills South PUD, for the purpose of a future middle school on the site. b.

P Page 108 of 465 The proposed Major PUD Amendment, and associated Comprehensive Plan Amendment and Rezone, will require review and recommendations from the Hearing Examiner and Planning Commission, followed by final consideration by the City Council. The full review process typically takes approximately six months and is anticipated to be completed by December 2025. The District, in anticipation of its capital bond approval, will submit separate applications for site design review and a boundary line elimination to consolidate all subject parcels. The new middle school is anticipated to be completed and operational in 2027. c. Proposed land uses including the type and amount or densities; Proposed land use is an approximately 118,000 square foot middle school. There is no proposed residential density. d. Number and types of dwelling units in the proposed development requiring the major amendment; There are no dwelling units proposed with the Major PUD Amendment. e. Total amount of open spaces,the designated or proposed use, and the amount of open space designated for public and private use; The middle school site plan designates open space areas, such as landscaped settings, athletic fields, and play area, which totals to approximately 11.33 acres of the overall 46.16 acre site. In addition to the planned open space settings, the protected wetland, dense trees, and natural landscaped areas total to approximately 24.8 acres of the overall 46.16 acre site. f. Plans for the perpetual maintenance and preservation of private spaces and private streets; The subject site is private property and will be maintained and preserved by the District. There are no private streets, such as tracts, proposed.There are internal driveways and drive aisles proposed for traffic circulation. g.

Page 111 of 465 Comprehensive Plan Amendment Written Statement ACC 14.22.110 Decision criteria for plan amendments: A. The comprehensive plan was developed and adopted after significant study and public participation. The principles, goals, objectives and policies contained therein shall be granted substantial weight when considering a proposed amendment. Therefore, the burden of proof for justifying a proposed amendment rests with the applicant,who must demonstrate that the request complies with and/or relates to the following decision criteria: 1. The proposed change will further and be consistent with the goals and objectives of the plan and the plan will remain internally consistent; The proposed Comprehensive Plan Map Amendment, to change the land use category of the subject site from Neighborhood Residential Two to Public/Quasi-Public, aligns with the goals and policies of the Imagine Auburn Comprehensive Plan Update 2024, adopted on December 16, 2024, and overall project intent to use the site as a new middle school.The proposed change would result in internally consistent guiding documents and future development on site. Examples of Comprehensive Plan goals are addressed below. Land Use Element - Goals, Policies, and Land Use Characteristics - Public/Quasi-Public Designation LU-111 The primary purpose of this designation is to address public needs while taking advantage of synergies with the adjacent areas where they are sited. The District's purpose is to provide educational services to students living within its District. Schools are typically placed in the residential neighborhoods they serve.The District acquired these parcels to ensure that Middle School No. 5 could be developed to better serve the needs of Auburn's growing community and surrounding area. LU-112 Appropriate uses for this designation include facilities that serve the needs of the larger community such as public schools, active parks, city operated municipal facilities, police stations, and fire stations. The proposed land use designation, Public/Quasi-Public, is for the intention of a new public middle school. LU-127 Build on partnerships with school districts to expand public use of school facilities for recreation and exercise, and to improve public access to facilities for this purpose, as appropriate. The future middle school development will expand recreational opportunities for both students and residents (during non-school hours), through the construction of a track and field facility, soccer/football field, baseball and softball fields. Written Statements and Narrative Auburn School District-MS5 SHOCKEY Page-17 .,.. Page 112 of 465 Capital Facilities Element-Goals and Policies- Goal 1:Keeping Pace with Growth CF-2 Encourage development where new public facilities can be provided in an efficient manner. CF-5 Provide additional public facility capacity when existing facilities are used to their maximum level of efficiency(consistent with adopted standards for level of service). CF-10 Establish land use patterns that optimize the use of public facilities. The adopted 2024 Comprehensive Plan recognizes and identifies the new middle school, Middle School No. 5, as a part of the District's future projects to accommodate projected growth in the area. Approval of Comprehensive Plan Map Amendment to redesignate the site to Public-Quasi- Public allows the District to move forward with the middle school project which promotes land use patterns that make efficient use of public facilities. 2. Whether the capacity to provide adequate services is diminished or increased; Transportation wise, improvements proposed by the District include frontage improvements per city code, construction of a single-lane roundabout at Sumner Tapps Highway East and the middle school access, including a right turn lane into the school, new gated driveway at 16' Street East and Sumner Tapps Highway Easement for school bus access, and an estimated $518,056 traffic impact fee based on the 2025 fee schedule. The site plan will be designed to adhere to required fire department infrastructure (sprinklers, hydrants, etc.) and access throughout the project. Water and sewer extensions will be made from Sumner Tapps Highway East in accordance with Bonney Lake, for water, and City of Auburn for sewer. Educational services would be increased by allowing the Auburn School District to proceed with the new middle school development. 3. Assumptions upon which the comprehensive plan is based are found to be invalid; The District acquired 14 of the 15 parcels in 2009 and the remaining parcel in 2023 and is now ready to proceed with the new middle school development. The current land use designation for the subject site is Neighborhood Residential Two, which is intended to accommodate a variety of residential dwelling types.This category includes R-2 Residential Low and R-3 Residential Moderate as implementing zoning districts, neither of which permit public schools. As such, the District is requesting an amendment to the 2024 Comprehensive Plan to redesignate all of the subject parcels to Public/Quasi-Public land use to support the development of Middle School No. 5, and to implement the P-1 Public Use District zoning. Written Statements and Narrative Auburn School District-MS5 SHOCKEY Page-18 Page 113 of 465 4. A determination of change or lack of change in conditions or circumstances has occurred since the adoption of the latest amendment to the specific section of the comprehensive plan that dictates the need for a proposed amendment; See response to item number 3 above. 5. If applicable, a determination that a question of consistency exists between the comprehensive plan and Chapter RCW, the countywide planning policies for either King and/or Pierce County, as appropriate, and Vision 2050; This is not applicable. 6. If the request is to change the land use designation of a specific property on the comprehensive land use map, the applicant must demonstrate one of the following: a. The current land use designation was clearly made in error or due to an oversight; This is not applicable. b. The proposed land use designation is adjacent to property having a similar or compatible designation,or other conditions are present to ensure compatibility with surrounding properties; The subject site is bordered by properties with the Neighborhood Residential Two land use designation to the north, east, and west, within the City of Auburn. To the south, is unincorporated Pierce County land, with the Suburban Residential land use designation. These residential based Comprehensive Plan land use designations are compatible with the proposed Public/Quasi-Public land use designation because a middle school is an appropriate and logical land use within this context. The new middle school is intended to serve the surrounding community (and beyond) and locating a school within a residential area supports neighborhood cohesion, recreational and sport opportunities, vehicular and pedestrian connections, and everyday guardianship. c. There has been a change in conditions since the current land use designation came into effect. The District acquired the majority of the subject parcels in 2009 and the remaining parcel in 2023. At the time, the site was designated as Moderate Density Residential and Open Space in the 1995 Comprehensive Plan. It was later reclassified as Single Family Residential in the 2015 Plan, and most recently as Neighborhood Residential Two in the 2024 Comprehensive Plan. With plans now underway for the development of Middle School No. 5, the District is requesting a land use redesignation to Public/Quasi-Public to support the proposed educational use. Written Statements and Nanativc Auburn School District-MS5 SHOCKEY Page-19 x. P Page 114 of 465 Rezone Written Statement ACC 18.68.040 Rezone (zoning map amendment) approval criteria: A. The rezone implements the policies of the comprehensive plan; or The proposed rezone - which would rezone 14 of the 15 parcels from Lakeland Hills South PUD to P-1 Public Use, and one parcel from R-2 Residential Low to P-1 Public Use - supports the policies of the 2024 Comprehensive Plan by aligning with the associated Comprehensive Plan Land Use redesignation request for Public/Quasi-Public. The 2024 Comprehensive Plan lists the P-1 Public Use zoning district as an implementing zoning designation for the Public/Quasi-Public Designation. Land within the City of Auburn is assigned a land use designation and implementing zoning district, which builds from previously adopted Comprehensive Plan Maps, the existing land use pattern, adopted subarea plans, topography, natural features, and targeted goals for shifting the character of specified areas. B.The rezone is necessary due to a substantial change in circumstances since the current zoning; and The proposed rezone is a necessary and logical action to align the site with land use objectives for the new middle school development. The current zoning designation, Lakeland Hills South PUD zoning, is intended for a mix of residential densities and flexible development standards, and R-2 zoning does not permit schools as an allowed land use. C. The rezone bears a substantial relationship to the public health, safety, or welfare. The Auburn School District serves a rapidly growing population across Auburn, Algona, Pacific, and Unincorporated King County. The rezone request supports the development of Middle School No. 5, which is anticipated to be completed and operational in 2027. The new middle school will serve grades 6-8 and accommodate approximately 800 students in permanent facilities, along with an additional 250 students in 10 portable classrooms. The conceptual site plan for the school is sensitive to development needs and protection of critical areas. Key features include: • New parking facilities for visitors, staff, students, and parents • Designated bus pick up and drop off areas • Two new recreational fields: one for track and field, lacrosse, football, and soccer, and the other for lacrosse, softball, and baseball • Preservation of the existing wetland on the west side of the site • Retention of dense tree populations along the west, south, and eastern boundaries Written Statements and Narrative Auburn School District-MS5 SHOCKEY Page-20 „..,.. Page 115 of 465 The new school will increase student capacity, meet current educational and facility standards, incorporate advanced technology systems, and expand opportunities for community use. Consequently, the rezone has a substantial and positive relationship to the public health, safety, and welfare of the students and residents of the City of Auburn and Auburn School District.

The purpose of this critical areas report is to document all wetlands,natural water features, and wildlife habitat areas (WHAs) that are located within 300 feet of the subject property. This report has been prepared in compliance with Chapter 16.10 of the Auburn Municipal Code (AMC) and is intended to serve as a baseline conditions report.

In summary, two probable wetland features (Wetland A and Wetland B) were identified by Grette (Grette Associates 2023).Following the September 2023 reconnaissance,Grette completed a second site visit on October 25,2023 to delineate the onsite wetland feature(Wetland A). No additional critical areas were identified during Grette's site visits. Grette Associates collected wetland delineation data and delineated the onsite wetland feature (Wetland A; Appendix A) according to the procedures defined in the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Federal Wetland Delineation Manual (1987) and the USACE's Regional Supplement to the Corps of Engineers Wetland Delineation Manual: Western Mountains, Valleys, and Coast Region (Version 2.0) (2010). The offsite wetland feature (Wetland B) was visually evaluated using the USACE's Regional Supplement Auburn School District—Site 35 1 November 2023 Critical Areas Report Grette Associates,LLC Page 121 of 465 (2010). Wetlands were rated according to AMC 16.10.080 and the Washington State Department of Ecology's (Ecology) Washington State Wetland Rating System for Western WA—2014 Update: Version 2(Hruby and Yahnke 2023). Wetland delineation summaries, field datasheets and wetland rating forms are presented in Appendices B, C and D, respectively. A summary of the identified wetlands is provided in Table 1. Table 1.

'Wetland A has a moderate habitat score while Wetland B has a low habitat score(Hruby and Yahnke 2024). 3 BACKGROUND 3.1 Existing Conditions The subject property primarily consists of a large developed area that has historically consisted of a mix of residential homesites and commercial equipment storage areas. The residential homesites were removed in 2006,while the equipment storage was removed by 2009. Aerial imagery also shows that in 2009 the site was largely cleared and graded in preparation of site development. The 2009 development activities appear to include the construction of several stormwater ponds and ditches to manage runoff. Undeveloped areas within the subject property are native forest predominantly consisting of Douglas fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) and big-leaf maple (Acer macrophyllum) with an understory dominated largely by salal (Gaultheria shallon) and sword fern (Polystichum munitum; Figures 1 and 2).

''' 3.2 Local Critical Areas Inventory The City of Auburn's online GIS database was queried to identify any potential critical areas on or within the vicinity of the subject property. This database did not have any critical area data available at the time of Grette's inquiry so Grette utilized Pierce County's Public GIS online database to identify any critical areas that are mapped at the local level. Auburn School District—Site 35 2 November 2023 Critical Areas Report Grette Associates,LLC Page 122 of 465 According to Pierce County's database, there are no critical areas mapped within the subject property(Appendix E). Offsite wetland features mapped by Pierce County include Wetland B and a small wetland area located south of the subject property. 3.3 National Wetlands Inventory The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service's National Wetlands Inventory (NWI) was queried to determine if previously-identified wetlands are present within 300 feet of the subject property(USFWS 2023). According to the NWI Interactive Online Mapper, the southern portion of Wetland A and the general area of Wetland B are mapped by NWI (Appendix E). In addition, NWI maps two of the constructed stormwater ponds identified during Grette's site assessments. 3.4 Sensitive Wildlife and Plants The Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife's(WDFW)Priority Habitats and Species (PHS) database on-line mapper was queried to determine if state or federally listed fish or wildlife species occur near the subject property (WDFW 2023). According to the PHS database, in addition to those features mapped by NWI, WDFW identifies the mapped wetland features as small waterfowl concentration areas (Appendix E). No additional PHS features (e.g., streams) are mapped in the vicinity of the subject property. The Washington Department of Natural Resources' (WDNR) Wetlands of High Conservation Value mapper was queried to determine if the subject property occurs in a location reported to contain high quality natural heritage wetland occurrences or occurrences of natural heritage features commonly associated with wetlands (WDNR 2023a). According to WDNR's mapper, there are no records of rare plants or high-quality native ecosystems occurring on or in the vicinity of the subject property(Appendix E). 3.5 State Water Classification System The WDNR's Forest Practice Application Mapping Tool on-line mapper was queried to identify the water typing of any streams mapped by WDNR (WDNR 2023b). According to WDNR,the central portion of Wetland B is mapped to provide potential fish(i.e.,Type- F) but does not map any other type of natural water feature (e.g., streams) in the vicinity of the subject property. 3.6 Soil Information According to the Natural Resources Conservation Service's (NRCS) Web Soil Survey (NRCS 2023a),the soils within the subject property consists of Alderwood gravelly sandy loam (8-15 percent slopes) and Alderwood gravelly sandy loam (15-30 percent slopes; Appendix E). Neither of these soil units are mapped as hydric by the NRCS. 4 METHODS The identified onsite wetland was delineated according to the procedures described in the USACE's Federal Wetland Delineation Manual (1987), and the USACE's Regional Supplement to the Corps of Engineers Wetland Delineation Manual: Western Mountains, Valleys, and Coast Region (Version 2.0) (2010). Paired data plots and soil test pits were excavated to evaluate wetland and upland conditions. Guidance from the USACE's Regional Supplement was used to evaluate the data at each data point. Auburn School District—Site 35 3 November 2023 Critical Areas Report Grette Associates,LLC Page 123 of 465 The boundary of the wetland was established based on changes in vegetation, field indicators of hydric soils,water levels at or below 12 inches,topographic changes, and best professional judgment. Data plots were established in and adjacent to the wetland. The location of the wetland boundary was defined by placement of florescent orange flagging tape. The location of each data plot was defined by the placement of pink flagging tape. The wetland boundary flagging was labeled alpha-numerically (i.e. A-2), where the letter designates the wetland and the number designates the specific flag angle point. Plants were determined to be more or less associated with wetlands based on their wetland indicator(FAC) status. The percent dominance for each plant strata was determined using the 50-20 Rule, which is the recommended method for selecting dominant species from a plant community in instances where quantitative data are available (USACE 2010). In utilizing this rule,dominants are the most abundant species that individually or collectively accounts for more than 50 percent of the total coverage of vegetation in the stratum plus any other species that, by itself accounts for at least 20 percent of the total. 4.1 Hydrophytic Vegetation The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) and the NWI have established a rating system that has been applied to commonly occurring plant species on the basis of their frequency of occurrence in wetlands(Table 3). Species indicator status expresses the range in which plants may occur in wetlands and non-wetlands (uplands). Under this system, vegetation is considered hydrophytic when there is an indicator status of facultative(FAC), facultative wetland (FACW) or obligate wetland (OBL) (Table 2). The hydrophytic vegetation criterion for wetland determination is met when more than 50 percent of the dominant species in the plant community are FAC or wetter. The USACE's National Wetland Plant List(USACE 2020) was used to determine vegetation indicator status. Table 2. Definitions for USFWS plant indicator status Plant Indicator Status Indicator Status Definition(Estimated Probability of Occurrence) Category Abbreviation Obligate Upland UPL Occur rarely(<1 percent)in wetlands,and almost always(>99 percent)in uplands Facultative Upland FACU Occur sometimes(1 percent to<33 percent)in wetlands,but occur more often(>67 percent to 99 percent)in uplands Facultative FAC Similar likelihood(33 percent to 67 percent)of occurring in both wetlands and uplands Facultative Wetland FACW Occur usually in wetlands(>67 percent to 99 percent),but also occur in uplands(1 percent to 33 percent) Obligate Wetland OBL Occur almost always(>99 percent)in wetlands,but rarely occur in uplands(<1 percent) Not Listed NL Not listed due to insufficient information to determine status 4.2 Wetland Hydrology Evidence of permanent or periodic inundation(water marks, drift lines, drainage patterns), or soil saturation to the surface for 14 consecutive days or more during the growing season meets the hydrology criterion. Oxidized root channels in the top 12 inches and hydrogen sulfide are primary indicators and water-stained leaves and geomorphic position are secondary indicators of wetland hydrology. Auburn School District—Site 35 4 November 2023 Critical Areas Report Grette Associates,LLC Page 124 of 465 4.3 Hydric Soils Soils that are saturated, flooded, or ponded long enough during the growing season to develop anaerobic conditions in the upper soil horizons are considered hydric soils. Field indicators include histosols, the presence of a histic epipedon, a sulfidic odor, low soil chroma,and gleying. Soil conditions were compared to the Field Indicators of Hydric Soils detailed in the USACE's Regional Supplement. 5 PRECIPITATION ANALYSIS During the site assessment, the Tacoma #1 National Weather Station (NWS Station 458278)recorded 0.57 inches of rainfall (NRCS 2023b). In the 14 days preceding the site assessment, 1.49 inches of rainfall was recorded at the station(NRCS 2023b). The total precipitation recorded at the Tacoma station from October 1, 2022 through September 30,2023 (30.18 inches) was approximately 74 percent of the normal rainfall (40.81 inches)that occurs during the same time (NOAA 2023 and NRCS 2023b). Table 3 below presents an analysis of the appropriate NRCS WETS table (NRCS 2023b) for the three months preceding the field investigation. Table 3. WETS precipitation analysis WETS Preceding Rainfall Measured 2 Condition Month Percentile Rainfall Conditions Value Month (inches) (inches) Value Weight 30% 70% _ October 2.50 4.76 2.67 Normal 2 3 6 September 0.59 1.78 2.49 Wet 3 2 6 1 August 0.27 0.85 0.26 Dry 1 1 1 Sum: 13 1 1 Observed rainfall for the month(NOAA 2016b) 2 Dry conditions are below 30%WETS table value,Normal conditions are between 30%and 70%of the WETS table values,Wet conditions are above 70%of the WETS table value. 3 Dry equals a value of 1,normal equals a value of 2,wet equals a value of 3 4 Due to the timing of the site assessment,October precipitation results were included in this analysis. Bins were established to evaluate the overall rainfall period during the field investigation; drier (sum is 6-9), normal (sum is 10-14), wet (sum is 15-18). A sum of 13 indicates that hydrologic conditions are normal. 6 WETLAND RESULTS 6.1 Wetland A Wetland A is a palustrine emergent and forested wetland that originates in the northwest portion of the subject property (Appendix A). This wetland feature contains both depressional and slope geomorphic and hydrologic wetland characteristics. Historically, Wetland A and Wetland B were potentially one contiguous feature; however, as land development activities began to occur overtime,a disconnection between these two wetland areas was established. Namely through historical clearing and grading and the construction of a maintenance access road. Auburn School District—Site 35 5 November 2023 Critical Areas Report Grette Associates,LLC Page 125 of 465 Wetland A receives seasonal overflow from Wetland B through an approximate 18-inch culvert situated beneath a maintenance road that provides access to one of the constructed stormwater ponds within the subject property (Appendix A). Surface water discharged to Wetland A appears to sheet flow and infiltrate across the wetland. No defined channelization was observed within Wetland A during Grette's site visits. Any seasonal ponding that occurs within Wetland A is likely limited to small depressional areas that are located throughout the wetland. Based on aerial imagery and Pierce County's wetland database, Wetland A extends south of the subject property towards Lake Tapps. More specifically, Grette delineated the wetland boundary extending to the southern edge of the subject property where it continues downslope towards a previously delineated offsite wetland mapped by Pierce County (Appendix A). 6.2 Wetland B Wetland B is an offsite palustrine emergent/scrub-shrub wetland that is situated within a distinct topographic depression(Appendix A). Based on aerial imagery,the eastern portion of Wetland B contains an area of seasonal ponding that occurs for a large duration of the year and only appears to dry out during the peak of the summer season. The remaining wetland area appears to be seasonally saturated. Seasonal discharge from Wetland B appears to be conveyed to Wetland A from a ditch and through an approximately 18-inch culvert. As noted above, the area where these conveyance features are located appear to have been manipulated over time to manage seasonal surface water flows. According to lidar imagery(WDNR 2023b), there is a well- defined linear ditch that extends from the eastern portion of Wetland B to the culvert beneath the existing maintenance road(Appendix A). 6.3 Wetland Categorization To determine the categorization of the wetlands based on function, the wetland classification guidelines in Ecology's wetland rating system (Hruby and Yahnke 2023) were used. Based on this guidance, each wetland was given a score for each of three functions: Water Quality, Hydrology, and Habitat (Table 4). Table 4. Wetland rating and categorization summary Cowardin Water Feature Class HGM Class Quality Hydrology Habitat Total Category Wetland A PEM/FO Depressional 7 6 6 19 III Wetland B PEM/SS Depressional 7 6 5 18 III Per Chapter 16.10 of the AMC,wetlands are subject to a buffer to protect the integrity and function of said feature and are based on the quality of the habitat function they provide. Wetland A provides moderate habitat function due to the special habitat features available within the wetland(Hruby and Yahnke 2023). However,while in close proximity,Wetland B does not have the diversity of special habitat features compared to Wetland A. As a result, Wetland B provides low habitat function. According to AMC 16.10.090, in addition to their habitat score, wetland buffers are also determined based on whether or not the mitigation measures outlined in AMC Auburn School District—Site 35 6 November 2023 Critical Areas Report Grette Associates,LLC Page 126 of 465 16.10.090(1)(a)(ii) are used. If the applicable measures are adopted in a proposed site design, a Category III wetland providing low habitat function would be subject to a 60-foot buffer and a Category III wetland providing moderate habitat function would be subject to a 110-foot buffer. In the event a proposed project does not include the applicable mitigation measures, the buffers would be 80 feet and 150 feet, respectively. 6.4 Regulatory Considerations Wetlands are regulated by agencies at the local, state, and federal levels. At the local level, wetlands and their associated buffers within the City of Auburn are regulated under their critical areas ordinance (Chapter 16.10 of the ACC). At the state level, wetlands are regulated by the Washington State Department of Ecology through the federal Clean Water Act (Section 401) and the State Water Pollution Control Act (RCW 90.48). The requirement for a Water Quality Certification from Ecology for wetland impacts is triggered by an applicant's applying for a federal Clean Water Act Section 404 permit from the USACE. Ecology may also issue an Administrative Order through RCW 90.48, allowing them wetland regulatory authority without a federal nexus. Additionally, WDFW regulates work within state waters to protect fish life under the State's Hydraulic Code (RCW 77.55) through the Hydraulic Project Approval (HPA) program. At the federal level, impacts (specifically dredging or filling) to wetlands are regulated by the Environmental Protection Agency through the US Army Corps of Engineers. The USACE administers the federal Clean Water Act (Section 404) for projects involving dredging or filling in Waters of the US (lakes, streams, marine waters, and most non- isolated wetlands). While it is the regulatory agencies that make the final determination regarding jurisdictional status, project proponents can infer jurisdiction using the guidance provided by each agency or local government. This inference can be used to design a project based on the anticipated regulatory constraints within the project area. However, it is the project proponent's responsibility to contact each potential regulating agency and confirm their regulatory status and requirements. 6.5 Disclaimer The findings and conclusions documented in this report have been prepared for specific application to this proposed project site. They have been developed in a manner consistent with that level of care and skill normally exercised by members of the environmental science profession currently practicing under similar conditions in the area. Our work was also performed in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in our proposal. The conclusions and recommendations presented in this report are professional opinions based on an interpretation of information currently available to us and are made within the operation scope, budget, and schedule of this project. No warranty, expressed or implied, is made. In addition, changes in government codes, regulations, or laws may occur. Because of such changes,our observations and conclusions applicable to this site may need to be revised wholly or in part. Wetland boundaries are based on conditions present at the time of the site visit and considered preliminary until the flagged wetland and/or drainage boundaries are validated Auburn School District—Site 35 7 November 2023 Critical Areas Report Grette Associates,LLC Page 127 of 465 by the appropriate jurisdictional agencies. Validation of the boundaries by the regulating agencies provide a certification, typically in writing, that the wetland boundaries verified are the boundaries that will be regulated by the agencies until a specific date or until the regulations are modified. Only the regulating agencies can provide this certification. Since wetlands are dynamic communities affected by both natural and human activities, changes in wetland boundaries may be expected. Because of such changes, our observations and conclusions applicable to this site may need to be revised wholly or in part. 7 BIOLOGIST QUALIFICATIONS 7.1 Chad Wallin Chad Wallin is a Biologist with extensive training in wetland science and ecology restoration.

If the hydrologic criteria listed in each question do riot apply to the entire unit being rated,you probably have a unit with multiple HGM classes. In this case,identify which hydrologic criteria in questions 1-7 apply, and go to Question 8. 1. Are the water levels in the entire unit usually controlled by tides except during floods? go to 2 YES—the wetland class is Tidal Fringe—go to 1.1 1.1 Is the salinity of the water during periods of annual low flow below 0.5 ppt(parts per thousand)? NO—Saltwater Tidal Fringe(Estuarine) YES—Freshwater Tidal Fringe If your wetland can be classified as a Freshwater Tidal Fringe use the forms for Riverine wetlands. If it is Saltwater Tidal Fringe, it is an Estuarine wetland and is not scored.This method cannot be used to score functions for estuarine wetlands. 2. The entire wetland unit is flat,and precipitation is the only source(>90%)of water to it.Groundwater and surface water runoff are NOT sources of water to the unit. ig) go to 3 YES—The wetland class is Flats your wetland can be classified as a Flats wetland, use the form for Depressionai wetlands. 3. Does the entire wetland unit meet all of the following criteria? _The vegetated part of the wetland is on the shores of a body of permanent open water(without any plants on the surface at any time of the year)at least 20 ac(8 ha)in size, At least 30%of the open water area is deeper than 5.6 ft(2 m). —go to 4 YES—The wetland class is Lake Fringe(Lacustrine Fringe) 4. Does the entire wetland unit meet all of the following criteria? The wetland is on a slope (slope can be very gradual), The water flows through the wetland in one direction (unidirectional)and usually comes from seeps. It may flow subsurface,as sheet flow,or in a swale without distinct banks, The water leaves the wetland without being impounded. 0—go to 5 YES--The wetland class is Slope NOTE:Surface water does not pond in these type of wetlands except occasionally in very small and shallow depressions or behind hummocks(depressions are usually<3 ft diameter and less than 1 ft deep). Wetland Rating System for Western WA:2014 Update 3 Rating Form—Version 2,July 2023 Page 145 of 465 Wetland name or number lL 5. Does the entire wetland unit meet all of the following criteria? The unit is in a valley,or stream channel,where it gets inundated by overbank flooding from that stream or river, The overbank flooding occurs at least once every 2 years. go to 6 YES--The wetland class is Riverine E:The Riverine unit can contain depressions that are filled with water when the river is not flooding 6. is the entire wetland unit in a topographic depression in which water ponds,or is saturated to the surface,at some time during the year?This means that any outlet, if present, is higher than the interior of the wetland. go to 7 YES—The wetland class is Depressional 7. Is the entire wetland unit located in a very flat area with no obvious depression and no overbank flooding? The unit does not pond surface water more than a few inches.The unit seems to be maintained by high groundwater in the area.The wetland may be ditched but has no obvious natural outlet. 40) go to 8 YES—The wetland class is Depressional S. Your wetland unit seems to be difficult to classify and probably contains several different HGM classes. For example,seeps at the base of a slope may grade into a riverine floodplain,or a small stream within a Depressional wetland has a zone of flooding along its sides. GO BACK AND IDENTIFY WHICH OF THE HYDROLOGIC REGIMES DESCRIBED IN QUESTIONS 1-7 APPLY TO DIFFERENT AREAS IN THE UNIT(make a rough sketch to help you decide). Use the following table to identify the appropriate class to use for the rating system if you have several HGM classes present within the wetland unit being scored. NOTE: Use this table only if the class that is recommended in the second column represents 10%or more of the total area of the wetland unit being rated. If the area of the HGM class listed in column 2 is less than 10%of the unit;classify the wetland using the class that represents more than 90%of the total area. HGM classes within the wetland unit HGM class to being rated use in rating Slope+ Riverine _ Slope+Depressional (Depressional Slope + LaKe rfirigr ---rgre-Fringe Depressional+ Riverine along stream Depressional within boundary of depression Depressional+ Lake Fringe Depressional Riverine+Lake Fringe Riverine Salt Water Tidal Fringe and any other Treat as class of freshwater wetland ESTUARINE If you are still unable to determine which of the above criteria apply to your wetland,or if you have more than 2 HGM classes within a wetland boundary,classify the wetland as Depressional for the rating.

Priority Habitat and Scecies List.'33 This list was updated for consistency with guidance from WDFW. This question is independent of the land use between the wetland unit and the Priority Habitat.All vegetated wetlands are by definition a Priority Habitat but are not included in this list because they are addressed by this rating system. Count how many of the following Priority Habitats are within 330 ft (100 m)of the wetland unit: — Aspen Stands:Pure or mixed stands of aspen greater than 1 ac(0.4 ha). - Biodiversity Areas and Corridors:Areas of habitat that are relatively important to various species of native fish and wildlife.This habitat automatically counts if mapped on the PHS online map within 100m of the wetland. If not mapped, a determination can be made in the field. - Caves:A naturally occurring cavity, recess,void,or system of interconnected passages under the earth in soils, rock, ice,or other geological formations and is large enough to contain a human. — Cliffs:Greater than 25 ft(7.6 m) high and occurring below 5000 ft elevation. — Fresh Deepwater:Lands permanently flooded with freshwater, including environments where surface water is permanent and often deep,so that water, rather than air, is the principal medium within which the dominant organisms live.Substrate does not support emergent vegetation. Do not select if Instream habitat is also present, or if the entire Deepwater feature is included in the wetland unit being rated (such as a pond with a vegetated fringe). ---- Herbaceous Balds:Variable size patches of grass and forbs on shallow soils over bedrock. - Instream:The combination of physical, biological, and chemical processes and conditions that interact to provide functional life history requirements for instream fish and wildlife resources. Do not select if Fresh Deepwater habitat is also present. - Nearshore: Relatively undisturbed nearshore habitats.These include Coastal Nearshore, Open Coast Nearshore,and Pu Sound Nearshore. !-Old-growth/Mature rests: ©€d-Rrowth west of Cascade crest—Stands of at least 2 tree species, forming a mutt- Bred canopy with occasional small openings;with at least 8 trees/ac(20 trees/ha ) > 32 in.

If the hydrologic criteria listed in each question do not apply to the entire unit being rated,you probably have a unit with multiple HGM classes. In this case,identify which hydrologic criteria in questions 1-7 apply, and go to Question 8. 1. Are the water levels in the entire unit usually controlled by tides except during floods? 6_go to 2 YES—the wetland class is Tidal Fringe—go to 1.1 1.1 Is the salinity of the water during periods of annual low flow below 0.5 ppt(parts per thousand)? NO—Saltwater Tidal Fringe(Estuarine) YES—Freshwater Tidal Fringe If your wetland can be classified as a Freshwater Tidal Fringe use the forms for R€verine wetlands. If it is Saltwater Tidal Fringe, it is an Estuarine wetland and is not scored.This method cannot be used to score functions for estuarine wetlands. .:2. The entire wetland unit is flat,and precipitation is the only source(>90%)of water to it.Groundwater and surface water runoff are NOT sources of water to the unit. —go to 3 YES—The wetland class is Flats If your wetland can be classified as a Flats wetland, use the form for Depressional wetlands. 3. Does the entire wetland unit meet all of the following criteria? The vegetated part of the wetland is on the shores of a body of permanent open water(without any plants on the surface at any time of the year)at least 20 ac(8 ha)in size, �At least 30%of the open water area is deeper than 6.6 ft(2 m). r_go to 4 YES—The wetland class is Lake Fringe(Lacustrine Fringe) 4. Does the entire wetland unit meet all of the following criteria? The wetland is on a slope(slope can be very gradual), The water flows through the wetland in one direction (unidirectional)and usually comes from seeps. It may flow subsurface,as sheet flow,or in a swale without distinct banks, The water leaves the wetland without being impounded. l3 go to 5 YES—The wetland class is Slope NOTE:Surface water does not pond in these type of wetlands except occasionally in very small and shallow depressions or behind hummocks(depressions are usually<3 ft diameter and less than 1 ft deep).

The unit is in a valley, or stream channel,where it gets inundated by overbank flooding from that stream or river, The overbank flooding occurs at least once every 2 years. O go to 6 YES—The wetland class is Riverine OTE:The Riverine unit can contain depressions that are filled with water when the river is not flooding 6. Is the entire wetland unit in a topographic depression in which water ponds, or is saturated to the surface,at some time during the year?This means that any outlet, if present, is higher than the interior of the wetland. NO—go to 7 112, he wetland class is Depressional 7. Is the entire wetland unit located in a very flat area with no obvious depression and no overbank flooding? The unit does not pond surface water more than a few inches.The unit seems to be maintained by high groundwater in the area.The wetland may be ditched but has no obvious natural outlet. NO—go to 8 YES—The wetland class is Depressional 8. Your wetland unit seems to be difficult to classify and probably contains several different HGM classes. For example, seeps at the base of a slope may grade into a riverine floodplain,or a small stream within a Depressional wetland has a zone of flooding along its sides.GO BACK AND IDENTIFY WHICH OF THE HYDROLOGIC REGIMES DESCRIBED IN QUESTIONS 1-7 APPLY TO DIFFERENT AREAS IN THE UNIT(make a rough sketch to help you decide). Use the following table to identify the appropriate class to use for the rating system if you have several HGM classes present within the wetland unit being scored. NOTE: Use this table only if the class that is recommended in the second column represents 10%or more of the total area of the wetland unit being rated. If the area of the HGM class listed in column 2 is less than 10%of the unit; classify the wetland using the class that represents more than 90%of the total area. HGM classes within the wetland unit HGM class to being rated use in rating Slope+Riverine Riverine Slope 4-Depressional Depressional Slope+Lake Fringe Lake Fringe Depressional+ Riverine along stream Depressional within boundary of depression Depressional+ Lake Fringe Depressional Riverine+ Lake Fringe Riverine Salt Water Tidal Fringe and any other Treat as class of freshwater wetland ESTUARINE If you are still unable to determine which of the above criteria apply to your wetland,or if you have more than 2 HGM classes within a wetland boundary,classify the wetland as Depressional for the rating.

It is not a complete inventory and it is important to note that fish and wildlife resources may occur in areas not currently known to WDFW biologists,or in areas for which comprehensive surveys have not been conducted.Site specific surveys are frequently necesssary to rule out the presence of priority resources.Locations of fish and wildlife resources are subject to variation caused by disturbance,changes in season and weather,and other factors WDFW does not recommend using reports more than six months old. about:blank Page 182 of at : 1 + 3 5 D U H 3 O D Q W DQG ( F § )I IVI Iwv.

Be careful opening links and attachments Good afternoon Dinah, Thank you for the opportunity to comment on the proposed Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map Amendment and Rezone for new Middle School No. 5 proposed by Auburn School District south of the intersection of Lake Tapps Parkway SE and Sumner Tapps Highway East in the City of Auburn. The PUD, Comprehensive Plan, and Zoning Amendment is interdependent with the construction of the proposed school and ancillary facilities (WAC197-_11-060), and environmental review should not be split between lead agencies (WAC197-11-926).Additionally, review of the impacts of the construction of the new school should not be deferred to a future date when the proposal's environmental impacts can reasonably be fully identified at this stage.The City may wish to review a recent unpublished Washington State Court of Appeals decision, Clark County v. Western Washington Growth Management Hearings Board et. al. (Case No. 86622 2-1, Division One). For the purpose of the SEPA Checklist and this threshold determination,the City is required to review not just the environmental impacts of the changes in these designations, but also the future school and the impacts to the adjacent major utility facilities, including impacts to the City of Bonney Lake water system and access to the reservoir site. As an agency with jurisdiction,the City respectfully requests reconsideration of the DNS and requests to be a party of record for this application and all related applications moving forward.

Be careful opening links and attachments Hi Eric, Thank you for your comments and for reviewing the SEPA Checklist. You are correct that trees will be removed for the proposed middle school development.A significant number of trees will remain along the west, south, and eastern borders of the property. In addition, new trees will be planted to meet code requirements. The proposed landscape plan exceeds the minimum 15% landscape coverage required in the P-1 zone, providing approximately 60% coverage. Portions of the proposed development will occur in areas of the site that are already disturbed, which helps avoid additional land disturbance beyond what is necessary. These tree plantings, retained buffers, and siting strategies are part of the project's mitigation measures to minimize and offset potential impacts to vegetation and wildlife habitat. Please let us know if you have any other questions.

Be careful opening links and attachments Greetings Ms. Reed, Thank you for your reply to my original email message. I am aware that a certain area of tree cover exists on the west and also the south end of the property to be developed, extending both within and outside the land parcels to be incorporated into the space designated for the prospective middle school. Based on diagrams displayed in the PUD Amendment's SEPA Checklist, I expect that some portion of these wooded sectors must be cleared to enable the full apportionment of the land appointed for the school to be utilized. May you kindly confirm whether this is indeed the case? If so, wildlife which relies on those arboreal zones for habitat shall invariably perish when the native flora is removed and replaced with concrete, cement, and other building materials. I understand that none of these species are likely endangered or listed as particularly threatened in terms of population sizes; nevertheless, I maintain that their demise should be mitigated as much as possible (no matter how much time and effort that entails) and, ideally, prevented altogether. Conceiving of and implementing a method to preserve or at least entirely replace elsewhere the vegetation itself should also be a focus at some point in the planning and/or undergoing of this construction operation. I would therefore kindly like to know what related ecological preservation measures (if any) have been proposed at anytime in the past and through the present moment. Thank you again for your attention and consideration.

There will be another SEPA Checklist associated with the development of the property. Any environmental functions to be addressed will be mitigated during that process. The City has thorough regulations addressing wetlands. Buffers are required depending on the significance of the wetland. 2 Page 189 of 465 I will add your name as a Party of Record so that you receive all noticing for the project in the future.

Be careful opening links and attachments 3 Page 190 of 465 Good afternoon/evening Ms. Reed, As a member of the general community surrounding the site of the proposed Auburn School District middle school associated with Major PUD Amendment PLT-2250005 and SEP25-0010, I have a couple of questions about the project. I understand that the public comment period has now concluded, but, considering that I reside in a household which is partly responsible for funding the building of the school and all related tasks to be completed and which will also be impacted by the logistical and environmental effects of the institution's operations, I maintain that receiving answers to my queries here continues to be warranted. I have read through most of the SEPA Environmental Checklist applicable to this enterprise, and my inquiries are based on statements presented in that document. First, what precisely is planned to happen to the area of the property to be utilized for the middle school known as "Wetland A"? In other words, how exactly will this natural feature be changed from its current condition and situation once the proposed structure is fully assembled as well as during its construction? Second, are there any plans to mitigate the (probable or definitive) destruction of or substantial ecological damage to the habitat relied upon by the "small waterfowl" species that can be intermittently found in or near Wetland A according to the aforementioned Environmental Checklist? If so, what are the details of this prospective mitigation effort? I may wish to engage further at a later period about this major PUD undertaking, but the above questions being addressed can satisfy my initial objectives. You may also redirect this message to other Auburn municipality personnel (or, supplementally or alternately, inform me who those people are and how I can contact them myself) if that/those individual(s) might be more knowledgeable of the topics about which I am asking. I am also readily willing to answer any necessary or important questions you may now have for me. Thank you for your time and consideration; I look forward to receiving return correspondence soon.

The District reviews and amends the Plan annually. All changes are made pursuant to the Growth Management Act and the local ordinances. The Plan was prepared using data available in the spring of 2025 unless otherwise noted. The Plan is consistent with prior long-term capital facilities plans adopted by the District. This Plan is not intended to be the sole plan for all the District's needs. The District may prepare interim and periodic long-range Capital Facilities Plans. The Plan will be submitted to jurisdictions located within the District's service area along with a request to include the plan as an element in the jurisdictions' Comprehensive Plans. King County, and the Cities of Algona, Auburn, Black Diamond, Kent, and Pacific must adopt this Plan to enable the District to collect impact fees within their jurisdiction. In the past, the Cities of Algona and Pacific did not adopt a school impact fee ordinance or the District's Capital Facilities Plans. King County Code 21A allows school districts to assess impact fees on every dwelling unit in the District for which a fee schedule has been established. This Plan provides the data and calculations required by King County and the Cities to establish the District's school impact fees for 2025. The District's 2025 impact fee for Single-Family Residences is $8,003. The 2025 impact fee for Multi-Family Residences is $8,966. This multi-family impact fee includes a discretionary adjustment to the fee generated from the King County formula. The adjustment by the District reduces the fee to match the multi-family fee collected by the District in 2024. This reduction was made to establish a more stable impact fee for students generated from multi-family developments. The Plan establishes the District's Standard of Service to determine the District's current and future capacity. While the State Superintendent of Public Instruction establishes square footage guidelines for school capacity, those guidelines do not account for the local program needs of the District. The Growth Management Act and the school impact fee ordinance authorize the District to define its standard of service based on the District's specific needs. The District's Standard of Service is based upon the District's current student-teacher ratio and service models tailored for specific program needs. The Standard of Service and Auburn School District No. 408 Page 195 of 465 2025 Capital Facilities Plan District's school inventory has been used to calculate the capacity of schools in the District. The District's permanent capacity for the 2025-26 school year is 14,550 students. The number of students enrolled in the District as of March 1, 2025, is 17,766 students.

This includes updating District mapping files, analyzing the District using geocoded student data files, developing and researching pertinent demographic data, identifying current and future residential development plans, and preparing a ten-year student population forecast. The data collected and used in the ten-year forecast includes: • an analysis of birth rates and their effect on incoming kindergarten classes, • the effects of student mobility including cohort survival rates, • student yield rates based upon historic housing data and trends, and • a detailed review of future residential development within the district. The methodology utilized by MGT is more extensive than traditional cohort survival projections and has proven to be reasonable and effective in predicting the student population in the District. Historical Enrollment The following table shows the District's October 1 historical enrollment over the past 20- years. The data reveals an average overall growth of 1.15% during the past 10 years. This includes a 4.42% decrease in 2020 enrollment due to the COVID pandemic.

This population is expected to grow by 9.3% in the six-year forecast as larger grade cohorts enter middle school, then slow during the following four years. • High school grades 9-12 show a steady rise beginning in school year 2028 due to smaller cohorts graduating out of the system and being backfilled by large 9th grade cohorts. This grade group is expected to increase by 7.3% in the six-year forecast and 9.9% in the ten-year forecast.

Developers of residential properties must pay a school district the impact fee to help compensate the District for the impact of new housing units on school facilities. This King County code was substantially adopted by the Cities of Auburn, Black Diamond, and Kent. This formula requires the District to establish a "Student Generation Rate." This rate is the average number of students generated by a residential housing unit and is used to estimate the number of students that will be added to the District by each new housing unit. Auburn School District No. 408 Page 202 of 465 2025 Capital Facilities Plan Two sets of data are used to calculate Student Generation Rates - current student enrollment and students generated from recently constructed housing units. This information links each student with a housing unit. Two general housing categories are analyzed - single-family and multi-family. The District also uses the Student Generation Rates to estimate student enrollment in the future. Development data is collected to determine the number of new residential units that may be built in the future. The Student Generation Rates are applied to estimate the number of new students that the planned residential developments may yield. Planned residential development data has been provided by MGT with additional data obtained by the District from city agencies, counties, and major developers within the District boundaries. Student population by residence includes all approved and tentative tract maps in addition to any planned or proposed development that may occur within the project timeframe. The planned residential development information is a current snapshot of the District. The information may change and is updated annually. The following table provides information about recent single-family residential developments in the District and associated Student Generation Rates.

The Standard of Service must identify the school program year, class size by grade span, the types of facilities needed to serve its student population, and other rates identified by the District including the requirements of students with special needs. CURRENT ENROLLMENT The District operates 16 elementary schools with pre-school to grade 5, four middle schools with grades 6 to 8, three comprehensive and one alternate education high school with grades 9 to 12. Student enrollments at these schools as of March 2025 are: • Elementary Schools: 8,524 students • Middle Schools: 3,778 students • High Schools: 5,464 students • Total Enrollment: 17,766 students CLASS SIZE Standard class sizes in the District are subject to state regulations, collective bargaining agreements, and student needs. Class sizes also vary based upon grade level and classroom type. The District's blended class size standards are as follows: • Elementary Schools: 20.29 students per classroom • Middle Schools: 28.02 students per classroom • High Schools: 28.74 students per classroom • Self-Contained Special Education: 12.00 students per classroom PERMANENT CLASSROOMS Permanent classrooms are located at schools owned and operated by the District. The school district does not lease classroom space. The number of permanent classrooms at the District's 24 schools are: • Elementary Schools: 507 classrooms • Middle Schools: 151 classrooms Auburn School District No. 408 Page 204 of 465 2025 Capital Facilities Plan • High Schools: 221 classrooms • Total: 879 classrooms PORTABLE CLASSROOMS Portable classrooms in the District are modular structures that can be relocated. The District uses portable classrooms when permanent facilities do not have adequate space to accommodate its students and staff. Portable classrooms are also used at the school district's Administration Building for training, conference, and office space. The number of portable classrooms in use and their locations are: • Elementary Schools: 26 portables • Middle Schools: 41 portables • High Schools: 41 portables • Support Facilities: 4 portables • Total: 112 portables TYPES OF CLASSROOMS The types of classrooms in the District vary based upon grade level, instructional program, and student needs. Classroom types in the District are: • General Classrooms: Spaces used for general instruction and do not have specialized features or equipment. These classrooms are present in elementary, middle, and high schools. • Special Education Self-Contained Classrooms: Spaces used for self-contained instruction for students with special needs. These classrooms are present in elementary, middle, and high schools. • Specialty Classrooms: Instructional spaces that have unique features or equipment. These classrooms are present in middle and high schools and consist of teaching stations for art, automotive technology, band, business education, career center, choral, construction manufacturing, computer science, culinary arts, drafting, drama, fitness and conditioning, horticulture, kitchen science, marketing, metals, orchestra, physical education, robotics, science, sports medicine, theater arts, and visual communications. • Pull-Out Classrooms: Spaces where students receive specialized instruction for a portion of the school day and are comprised of elementary gymnasiums and music, and elementary, middle, and high school multi-lingual, resource, and Title/LAP classrooms. Pull-out classrooms do not contribute to a school's capacity because students visit these classrooms during the school day while excused from their general classrooms. Auburn School District No. 408 Page 205 of 465 2025 Capital Facilities Plan The standard number of students in a classroom varies based upon grade level and classroom type. Standard class sizes in the District are: • Elementary General Classroom Pre-Kindergarten: 20 students per classroom. • Elementary General Classrooms Kindergarten through Grade 3: 17 students per classroom. • Elementary General Classrooms Grades 4 and 5: 27 students per classroom. • Middle School General and Specialty Classrooms Grade 6: 27 students per classroom. • Middle School General and Specialty Classrooms Grades 7 and 8: 28.53 students per classroom. • High School General and Specialty Classrooms Grades 9 through 12: 28.74 students per classroom. • Special Education Self-Contained Classrooms Pre-Kindergarten — Grade 12: 12 students per classroom. • Pull-Out Classrooms Pre-Kindergarten through Grade 12: Class size varies depending on the grade level and type of instruction being provided. CLASSROOM UTILIZATION As noted above, the District has established standard student class sizes based upon grade level and classroom use. While the District works diligently to assign students to achieve full classroom capacity, it is not possible to always do so. Consequently, the District applies classroom utilization rates to address inefficiencies in assigning classes. The utilization rates are: • Elementary Schools: 100% utilization based on the ability to fully assign classes at classroom size standards. • Middle and High Schools: 76.67% utilization based upon 92% utilization due to elective class sizes x 83% utilization due to classrooms used for planning periods. SCHOOL CAPACITY School capacity is determined by the number of teaching stations present at each school, type of teaching station, class size, teaching station capacity, and classroom utilization rate.

The process includes the formation of community-wide citizens' committees to review facility needs and make recommendations for improvements, modernizations, and new facilities. In 2015, a citizens' committee recommended the District build two new elementary schools, replace one middle and five elementary schools, and acquire property for three Auburn School District No. 408 Page 207 of 465 2025 Capital Facilities Plan elementary schools. In November 2016, the voters approved a bond proposition to build and replace these schools. The last project in this building program was completed in October 2024. In 2023, the District completed a 10-year Facilities Master Plan. This plan identified the following facility needs: • Complete improvements to 22 facilities to address aging equipment, air conditioning, energy conservation, major maintenance, and safety and security improvements within six years. • Replace Alpac Elementary School within six years. • Replace Cascade Middle School within six years. • Build a new middle school within six years. • Replace Evergreen Heights and Gildo Rey Elementary Schools within seven to 13 years. • Replace the Administration Building and Administration Annex within seven to 13 years. • Build a new high school in nine years if current enrollment projections remain accurate. • Acquire new portable classrooms and relocate existing portable classrooms where needed to accommodate localized enrollment growth at individual schools. A citizens' committee was convened in the fall of 2023 and recommended construction of a new middle school to increase capacity, replace an aging elementary and middle school, and provide improvements at 22 existing schools and support facilities. Based upon these recommendations, the District Board of Directors placed a bond proposition on the November 2024 ballot for these projects. This proposition received a 55.05% approval, missing the required 60% approval rate. Here is a record of construction bonds submitted to the voters during the past 10 years. This includes the funding measures identified above. The school district has not submitted a capital levy to the voters for construction purposes during the past 10 years.

It is also considering submitting a capital levy proposition in November 2025 to provide improvements to 22 existing facilities. The District is not eligible for state funding assistance for the Middle School #5 project. The District is eligible for state funding assistance for the replacement of Alpac Elementary and Cascade Middle School. The District will front fund the Alpac Elementary and Cascade Middle School projects because the state funding assistance is not guaranteed for these projects. The new middle school and portable classrooms are part of the District's capacity solution. The new middle school will provide added capacity to serve growth and is the basis for the District's impact fees. The District also plans to purchase or relocate portable classrooms to continue to accommodate growth at the middle and high school levels. The District's six-year facility needs are summarized in the following table.

It has also increased the 2025 student generation rates for single-family and multi-family residences. These student generation rates are based on residential development data compiled for single-family and multi-family dwelling units. The development data for single-family residences was collected from ten residential developments and serves as a fitting representation of students generated by single-family dwellings throughout the District. The development data available for multi-family units was limited to three developments including one development with an exceptionally high Student Generation Rate. This limited data and high student generation rate at one multi- family development has resulted in a high overall Student Generation Rate and high impact fee for 2025 for multi-family dwellings. In recognition of this, the District has made a discretionary adjustment to this fee and reduced it to match the multi-family fee collected in 2024.

The student population is projected to increase during the next ten years but at a slower rate than in the past 10 years. The District built two new elementary schools and replaced five elementary schools with larger facilities during the past five years. This increased elementary school capacity, and it now fully accommodates current elementary students. However, the District continues to lack permanent classroom space to accommodate middle and high school students, including students from new growth. Consequently, 82 portable classrooms are being used to accommodate middle and high school students and are part of the District's short-term capacity solution. Because of a shortage of permanent classrooms in middle schools, the District is considering placing a bond proposition on the ballot in November 2025. This includes funding to build an additional middle school. The District is also monitoring annual enrollment levels and bonding capacity to determine when an additional high school should be built. During the past year, the District experienced an increase in the construction cost for a new middle school and an increase in single-family and multi-family Student Generation Rates. This contributed to an increase in the impact fee for single-family residences from $4,584 to $8,003. It also contributed to an increase in the impact fee for multi-family residences. Based on an application of King County Code 21A and its associated formula, the District's 2025 impact fee for multi-family residences would increase from $8,966 to $14,408. The District has adjusted this fee and reduced it to match the multi-family fee collected in 2024. This discretionary reduction was made to establish a more stable impact fee for students generated from multi-family developments. The District's 2025-2031 Capital Facilities Plan will be submitted for adoption by the Auburn School District Board of Directors. After adoption, the Plan, including its 2025 impact fee rates, will be submitted to King County and the Cities of Algona, Auburn, Black Diamond, Kent, and Pacific. The submission to these public agencies will include a request that the jurisdictions adopt the plan and include the plan as an element in their Comprehensive Plans.

Date of Issue: May 23,2025 Date Published: May 23,2025 Page 216 of 465 SEPA ENVIRONMENTAL CHECKLIST Purpose of checklist Governmental agencies use this checklist to help determine whether the environmental impacts of your proposal are significant. This information is also helpful to determine if available avoidance, minimization, or compensatory mitigation measures will address the probable significant impacts or if an environmental impact statement will be prepared to further analyze the proposal. Instructions for applicants This environmental checklist asks you to describe some basic information about your proposal. Please answer each question accurately and carefully,to the best of your knowledge. You may need to consult with an agency specialist or private consultant for some questions. You may use"not applicable" or "does not apply" only when you can explain why it does not apply and not when the answer is unknown.You may also attach or incorporate by reference additional studies reports. Complete and accurate answers to these questions often avoid delays with the SEPA process as well as later in the decision-making process. The checklist questions apply to all parts of your proposal, even if you plan to do them over a period of time or on different parcels of land. Attach any additional information that will help describe your proposal or its environmental effects. The agency to which you submit this checklist may ask you to explain your answers or provide additional information reasonably related to determining if there may be significant adverse impact. Instructions for lead agencies Please adjust the format of this template as needed. Additional information may be necessary to evaluate the existing environment, all interrelated aspects of the proposal and an analysis of adverse impacts. The checklist is considered the first but not necessarily the only source of information needed to make an adequate threshold determination. Once a threshold determination is made,the lead agency is responsible for the completeness and accuracy of the checklist and other supporting documents. Use of checklist for nonproject proposals For nonproject proposals (such as ordinances,regulations,plans and programs), complete the applicable parts of sections A and B,plus the Supplemental Sheet for Nonproject Actions (Part D). Please completely answer all questions that apply and note that the words "project," "applicant," and"property or site" should be read as "proposal," "proponent," and"affected geographic area," respectively.The lead agency may exclude (for non-projects) questions in"Part B: Environmental Elements"that do not contribute meaningfully to the analysis of the proposal.

Name of proposed project, if applicable: The adoption of the Auburn School District's (the "District") 2025 Capital Facilities Plan("CFP") for the purposes of planning for the District's educational facilities needs. Adoption of the CFP is a nonproject proposal. The District prepares annual updates to the CFP in accordance with the Washington State Growth Management Act, and the codes of King County and the cities of Algona, Auburn, Black Diamond, Kent, and Pacific. The CFP is a nonproject planning document, covers a six-year planning period, and includes: • Future enrollment forecasts for each grade span (elementary, middle and high school). • An inventory of existing capital facilities owned by the District, showing the locations and capacities of those facilities • A forecast of the future needs for capital facilities and the proposed capacities of expanded or new capital facilities. • A six-year plan for financing capital facilities within projected funding capacities which identifies sources of public money for such purposes. • A calculation of school impact fees to be assessed pursuant to RCW 82.02 The District prepares the CFP primarily as a basis for seeking, where eligible, school impact fees to help address school capacity impacts related to residential growth. The District's Board of Directors will review and consider approval and adoption of the 2025 CFP. If approved and adopted, the District will send the CFP to King County and the cities of Algona, Auburn, Black Diamond, Kent, and Pacific for consideration of inclusion into their respective Comprehensive Plans. A copy of the District's draft Capital Facilities Plan is available for review in the District's office. 2. Name of applicant: Auburn School District No. 408 3.

Respond briefly and in general terms. APPLICANT/AGENCY ADDED NOTE: The 2025 CFP is an educational facilities non-project planning document and will not itself direct regulation or serve as the basis for approval of any particular use. To the extent the Capital Facilities Plan makes it more likely that school facilities will be constructed, some of these environmental impacts may be more likely. However,neither approval of the CFP itself nor its inclusion as a part of any jurisdiction's Comprehensive Plan Capital Facilities Element serves as the basis for approval of any potential project referenced in the CFP that may be proposed for action, nor does it direct a land use approval of any site referenced in the CFP. 1. How would the proposal be likely to increase discharge to water; emissions to air; pro- duction, storage, or release of toxic or hazardous substances; or production of noise? The 2025 CFP is an educational facilities non-project planning document and will not itself direct regulation or serve as the basis for approval any of particular use. To the extent the CFP makes it likely that school facilities may be considered for action,there may be increased discharge to water; emissions to air;production, storage, or release of toxic or hazardous substances; or production of noise. Additional impermeable surfaces, such as roofs, access roads, and sidewalks could increase stormwater runoff,which could enter surface or ground waters. Heating systems, emergency generators, and other school equipment that is installed pursuant to the Capital Facilities Plan could result in air emissions. The projects referenced in the Capital Facilities Plan should not require the production, storage, or release of toxic or hazardous substances,with the possible exception of the storage of diesel fuel or gasoline for emergency generating equipment. The District does not anticipate a significant increase in the production of noise from its facilities,with the possible exception of noise production due to short-term construction activities or the presences of additional students/school operations on a site. Construction impacts related to noise and air would be short term and are not anticipated to be significant. • Proposed measures to avoid or reduce such increases are: Proposed measures to mitigate any such increases described above have been or will be addressed for any potential project referenced in the CFP that may be proposed for action during project-level environmental review when appropriate. Stormwater detention and runoff will meet applicable County and/or City requirements and may be subject to National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System("NPDES") permitting requirements. Discharges to air will meet applicable air pollution control requirements. Fuel oil will be stored in accordance with local and state requirements. Noise impacts will evaluated under SEPA Environmental checklist(WAC 197-11-960) September 2023 Page 23 of 26 Page 239 of 465 local and state standards once when project details are known and able to be analyzed, and impacts will be mitigated appropriately. 2. How would the proposal be likely to affect plants, animals, fish, or marine life?

Applicable code and regulatory provisions protecting/conserving plants, animals, fish, or marine life will be followed. 3. How would the proposal be likely to deplete energy or natural resources? The 2025 CFP is an educational facilities non-project planning document and will not itself direct regulation or serve as the basis for approval any of particular use. Should the potential projects referenced in the 2025 CFP be proposed and constructed, they will require the consumption of energy. • Proposed measures to protect or conserve energy and natural resources are: The potential projects referenced in the CFP, if proposed, will be constructed in accordance with applicable energy efficiency standards and requirements, and proposed measures needed to protect or conserve energy and natural resources have been or will be addressed during project-level environmental review when appropriate. 4. How would the proposal be likely to use or affect environmentally sensitive areas or areas designated (or eligible or under study)for governmental protection,such as parks, wilderness,wild and scenic rivers,threatened or endangered species habitat, historic or cultural sites,wetlands,floodplains, or prime farmlands? The 2025 CFP is an educational facilities non-project planning document and will not itself direct regulation or serve as the basis for approval any of particular use and, as such,will not have an impact on these elements itself. Environmentally sensitive areas will be identified during project-specific environmental review of any project referenced in the CFP and proposed for action and will be consistently addressed with local and/or state requirements. • Proposed measures to protect such resources or to avoid or reduce impacts are: Appropriate measures as identified in collaboration with regulatory agencies will be proposed during project-specific environmental review at the appropriate time of formal proposal when project details are known and able to be analyzed. SEPA Environmental checklist(WAC 197-11-960) September 2023 Page 24 of 26 Page 240 of 465 5. How would the proposal be likely to affect land and shoreline use, including whether it would allow or encourage land or shoreline uses incompatible with existing plans? The 2025 CFP is an educational facilities non-project planning document and will not itself direct regulation or serve as the basis for approval of any particular use and, as such, does not in itself dictate certain shoreline and land uses. Any projects referenced within the CFP and subsequently proposed for project-specific review and permitting will be reviewed for compliance with existing plans and would be subject to the relevant jurisdiction's land use process and approval requirements. • Proposed measures to avoid or reduce shoreline and land use impacts are: This 2025 CFP is a non-project planning document and does not in itself dictate certain shoreline and land uses. Any projects referenced within the CFP and subsequently proposed for project-specific review and permitting will be reviewed and conditioned appropriately to avoid or reduce land use impacts. 6. How would the proposal be likely to increase demands on transportation or public services and utilities?

The potential projects referenced in the CFP, if proposed, may create an increase in traffic near District facilities during the school year and during school start/end times. Impacts on transportation,public services, and utilities related to the potential projects referenced in the CFP will be addressed during project-specific environmental review at the appropriate time during formal proposal when project details are known and able to be analyzed. • Proposed measures to reduce or respond to such demand(s) are: This 2025 CFP is a non-project planning document and, as such, does not itself create substantial new demands for transportation,public services, or utilities. Therefore,no measures to reduce or respond to such demands are proposed at this time. Any proposed measures to reduce demands on transportation, public services or utilities have been or would be done at the project-specific level of any project referenced in the CFP if proposed for action. Requirements of the permitting jurisdiction, as well as any additional measures identified during project-level environmental review, would be complied with as a part of the project. 7. Identify, if possible, whether the proposal may conflict with local, state, or federal laws or requirements for the protection of the environment. The 2025 CFP is an educational facilities non-project planning document and will not itself direct regulation or serve as the basis for approval of any particular use and does not conflict with any laws or requirements for the protection of the environment. Specific projects referenced in the Capital Facilities Plan, if proposed, have been or will be reviewed under project-level environmental review requirements. The Washington Growth Management Act (the GMA) outlines 15 broad goals, including adequate provision of necessary public facilities and services. Schools are among these necessary facilities and services. The Capital Facilities Plan satisfies the requirements of RCW 36.70A.070, identifies additional school facilities necessary to meet the educational needs of the growing student populations anticipated in the District, and informs local jurisdictions regarding the impacts of new residential development on public school capacity.

Together, these foundations guide the district's commitment to excellence, equity, and continuous improvement. 4IPage Page 246 of 465 Introduction The Dieringer School District (the"district")was established in 1890 and consolidated with Lake Tapps School District in 1936. Established in 1890, Dieringer School District (the"district") consolidated with Lake Tapps School District in 1936. The District's three schools, Lake Tapps Elementary School, Dieringer Heights Elementary School and North Tapps Middle School, provide K through 8th grade education, and serve as hubs for community activities as well. Dieringer School District#343 is located in unincorporated Pierce County, bounded on the east by the White River, on the west by the Stuck River, on the north by the city of Auburn, and on the south by the cities of Bonney Lake and Sumner. The District surrounds the northern two-thirds of Lake Tapps and covers approximately 5.5 square miles. The current student enrollment is approximately 1,411 students in grades kindergarten through eight. Students in grades first through third are housed at Lake Tapps Elementary, constructed in 2005 as a replacement project. Construction was completed on an addition in September 2017. Dieringer Heights Elementary opened in the fall of 2000, with an addition completed in 2008, and is home to students in kindergarten, fourth and fifth grade. Dieringer Heights Elementary also houses two preschool classrooms and one Transition to Kindergarten classroom. Originally constructed in 1992 and added on to in 1998 and 2009, North Tapps Middle School houses students in grades sixth through eighth.The district supports an additional 614 high school students who may select to attend any public high school. The majority choose to attend Auburn Riverside, Sumner and Bonney Lake High Schools. The district has a long-standing history of providing high quality education for all our students. Our goal is for our students to gain the skills that will allow them to become successful, confident, and contributing members of society. Dieringer is composed of students who come to school well prepared and eager to learn. Parents are concerned with student success and provide outstanding support for their children and the Dieringer School District.The PTA and many volunteers contribute countless hours and resources to our schools and students. The community supports the schools through the passage of funding issues to support student access to current technology and the construction of school facilities. Impact fees, including interest, are held in reserve until used to meet District identified needs for site acquisition, additional facilities and improvements, and/or technology capital expenditures. 5IPage Page 247 of 465 MAP 1: District Boundary Map _ _ _ _ e = ; ; c c E 8 ! a 8 "e E.

This study will be carried out by qualified professionals and will include detailed inspections of structural systems, roofing, mechanical and electrical systems, plumbing, interior finishes, and site conditions. The assessment will identify maintenance needs, code compliance issues, and potential safety concerns, while also estimating the remaining useful life of major building components.The findings from this study will provide critical data to support long-range planning efforts and inform the work of the Capital Levy Planning Committee as it develops recommendations for the 2027-2030 replacement capital levy. 6 ' Page Page 248 of 465 Capital Levy Planning Committee The district plans to convene a Capital Levy Planning Committee in the fall of 2025 to evaluate current and future facility needs and develop recommendations for inclusion in a replacement capital levy for the 2027-2030 cycle. This committee will consist of district staff, school board representatives, community members, and subject matter experts, who will work collaboratively to assess the condition of existing infrastructure, enrollment trends, educational program requirements, and safety and accessibility standards. The committee's analysis will guide the prioritization of projects to ensure alignment with long- term district goals and community expectations. Final recommendations will inform the proposed levy package, which will be presented to voters for approval most likely in February 2026. NTMS Portable To address the lack of available classroom space within the main building at North Tapps Middle School, the district will install single portable classroom in Summer 2025. Prior to this addition, one classroom was being held on the stage, highlighting the need for additional instructional space. The portable classroom provides a more appropriate and functional learning environment and supports the school's ability to meet current enrollment needs without compromising educational quality. Birth Rate Trend From 2016 through 2023, Pierce County saw birth counts decreased from 11,757 to 10,443. This information is relevant to K-12 school districts, as annual birth counts are viewed as a leading indicator of future kindergarten enrollment. The district will continue to monitor annual birth counts in Pierce County for future enrollment projections. Grade Configuration The district has planned a changed in grade configuration scheduled for the 2026-27 school year. Currently, Lake Tapps Elementary serves grades 1, 2, and 3, while Dieringer Heights Elementary houses kindergarten, grade 5, and grade 6. The district plans to transition to a new configuration in which one school will serve kindergarten through grade 2, and the other will serve grades 3 through 5. This reconfiguration aims to better align instructional practices, foster more cohesive academic progression, and streamline transitions for students.While the shift supports long-term educational goals, it also presents immediate facility implications, including classroom utilization, potential remodeling, and transportation logistics, all of which must be addressed in future planning 7IPage Page 249 of 465 Inventory of School and Support Facilities The Dieringer School District maintains almost 200,000 square feet of building space and owns over 29 acres of property.

The data excludes enrollment in the Transition to Kindergarten program. A series of graphs is provided to display the district's enrollment data. Enrollment History Table 4 displays historical enrollment by grade and indicates a gradual decline in Kindergarten class sizes over time. However, enrollment tends to recover in the later grades, suggesting that some families may be opting for alternative Kindergarten programs or moving into the district after the early elementary years.This trend may be influenced by the higher-than-average home values in the Dieringer service area, which could delay family relocation until later stages of a child's education.

Forecasting typically considers past trends to help predict future trends using a "Cohort Survival" method. The shorter the forecast, the more likely it is that is underlying assumptions and predictions will be accurate. The enrollment fluctuations over the course of the pandemic have made recent enrollment trends less reliable in projecting enrollment. When planning for adequate school facilities, the district uses more inclusive and growth- responsive enrollment projections than those used for budget and funding purposes. These projections account for potential increases in student population and ensure that facility capacity is sufficient to meet both current and future needs. By planning for higher enrollment than conservative funding estimates might suggest, the district can better prevent overcrowding, support evolving instructional programs, and maintain flexibility as the community grows. This forward-thinking approach helps ensure facilities are aligned with actual student needs over time. Table 5 presents a six-year enrollment projection for the Dieringer School District indicating that student enrollment is expected to remain steady, with numbers consistently hovering near or above the district's current maximum facility capacity.This trend suggests that while significant enrollment growth is not anticipated, existing facilities will continue to operate at or near their limits, underscoring the importance of ongoing planning to ensure the district can continue to meet student needs without exceeding available space.

At the elementary level, the district plans to maximize the use of state funding available for reducing class sizes to meet the K-3rd grade districtwide class size targets specified by the legislature at 17. Actual class sizes are larger because the state formula includes specialists (e.g. music and physical education) and a portion of special education teachers in the calculation of districtwide class average. Fourth through sixth grade class size target is 27 and seventh through eighth grade is 28. These class sizes have an impact on facilities, and the permanent capacity of each school reflects these class sizes. In the District, rooms designated and assigned for special use are not counted as capacity classrooms. At the elementary level students are provided music instruction and physical education in non-capacity classrooms. Special education and intervention programs are provided as pullout programs and do not provide capacity. At the middle school level, instruction is organized around a six-period day; classrooms are calculated as providing 5/6 (84%) capacity to accommodate teacher planning time in the instructional space. Student generation rates are based on an average of Sumner-Bonney Lake and Auburn 2025 rates. 13IPage Page 255 of 465 Capital Facilities & Financing Plan TABLE 8-Permanent Capacity Projects 6-Year Total Site Current Capacity Capacity Capacity 2026 2027 2028 2029 2030 2031 Lake Tapps Elementary 490 490 Dieringer Heights Elementary 520 520 Elementary#3 400 400 400 North Tapps Middle School 545 112 657 112 TOTAL 1,555 512 2,067 TABLE 9-Capital Finance Plan 2025-2031 Estimated Projects Project Cost Unsecured Sources of Funds Secired Sources of Funds Levy/Bond Unrestricted Impact Fees Levy/Bond Unrestricted Impact Fees Capacity Projects Elementary#3 38,177,090 36,677,090 1,500,000 NTMS Addition 3,846,312 3,246,312 600,000 Total 42,023,402 39,923,402 - - - 1,500,000 600,000 Non-Capacity Projects NTMS Turf Track,Roof,District HVAC 10,651,802 10,651,802 Building Modernization&Updates 17,193,000 17,193,000 Technology 10,350,000 6,900,000 3,450,000 Total 38,194,802 24,093,000 - - r 3,450,000 - - Total Projects 2025-2031 80,218,204 64,016,402 3,450,000 1,500,000 600,000 14IPage Page 256 of 465 Impact Fee Calculation TABLE 10-Single Family(SFR)and Multi-Family(MFR)Impact Fee Calculation Student Student Facility Facility Generation Generation School Site Acquisition Cost Acreage Cost/Acre Capacity Rate SFR Rate MFR Cost/SFR Cost/MFR Elementary#3 12 613,107 433 0.3516 0.3011 5,974 5,116 Student Student Facility Generation Generation School Construction Cost Facility Cost Capacity Rate SFR Rate MFR Cost/SFR Cost/MFR Elementary#3 30,819,806 433 0.3516 0.3011 25,026 21,432 NTMS Classroom Addition 3,846,312 112 0.1080 0.1131 3,709 3,884 28,735 25,316 Student Student $Temp/Total Generation Generation Temporary Facility Cost Sq Ft Facility Cost Facility Size Rate SFR Rate MFR Cost/SFR Cost/MFR Student Student Construction Cost OSPI SF Per State Match Generation Generation State Matching Credit Allowance Student State Match% Per Student Rate SFR Rate MFR Cost/SFR Cost/MFR Elementary 375.00 90 0.5069 17,107.88 0.3516 0.3011 6,015 5,151 Middle School 375.00 108 0.5069 20,529.45 0.1080 0.1131 2,217 2,322 8,232 7,473 Tax Payment Credit SFR MFR Average Assessed Value 947,500 615,875 Capital Bond Interest Rate 4.30% 4.30% Net Present Value of Average Dwelling 7,571,574 4,921,523 Years Amortized 10 10 2025 Property Tax Levy Rate 1.5600 1.5600 Present Value of Revenue Stream 11,812 7,678 Fee Summary SFR MFR Site Acquisition Costs 5,974 5,116 Permanent Facility Cost 28,735 25,316 Temporary Facility Cost - - State Match Credit (8,232) (7,473) Tax Payment Credit (11,812) (7,678) Fee Obligation 14,665 15,281 Fee with Discount of 50% 7,333 7,641 Maximum Fee Obligation per Pierce County Code 4A.30.030 8,054 4,545 Final Proposed Impact Fee(Lesser of 50%of Fee Obligation or Pierce County Maximum) 7,333 4,545 151Page Page 257 of 465 ENVIRONMENTAL CHECKLIST WAC 197-11-960 Environmental Checklist. Purpose of Checklist: The State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA), chapter 43.21 C RCW, requires all governmental agencies to consider the environmental impacts of a proposal before making decisions. An environmental impact statement (EIS) must be prepared for all proposals with probable significant adverse impacts on the quality of the environment. The purpose of this checklist is to provide information to help you and the agency identify impacts from your proposal (and to reduce or avoid impacts from the proposal, if it can be done) and to help the agency decide whether an EIS is required. Instructions for Applicants: This environmental checklist asks you to describe some basic information about your proposal. Governmental agencies use this checklist to determine whether the environmental impacts of your proposal are significant, requiring preparation of an EIS. Answer the questions briefly, with the most precise information known, or give the best description you can. You must answer each question accurately and carefully, to the best of your knowledge. In most cases, you should be able to answer the questions from your own observations or project plans without the need to hire experts. If you really do not know the answer, or if a question does not apply to your proposal, write "do not know" or"does not apply." Complete answers to the questions now may avoid unnecessary delays later. Some questions ask about governmental regulations, such as zoning, shoreline, and landmark designations. Answer these questions if you can. If you have problems, the governmental agencies can assist you. The checklist questions apply to all parts of your proposal, even if you plan to do them over a period of time or on different parcels of land. Attach any additional information that will help describe your proposal or its environmental effects. The agency to which you submit this checklist may ask you to explain your answers or provide additional information reasonably related to determining if there may be significant adverse impact. Use of checklist for nonproject proposals: Complete this checklist for nonproject proposals, even though questions may be answered "does not apply." In addition, complete the Supplemental Sheet for nonproject actions (part D). For nonproject actions, the references in the checklist to the words "project," "applicant," and "property or site" should be read as "proposal," "prepares," and "affected geographic area," respectively.

SUPPLEMENTAL SHEET FOR NONPROJECT ACTIONS (do not use this sheet for project actions) Because these questions are very general, it may be helpful to read them in conjunction with the list of the elements of the environment. When answering these questions, be aware of the extent the proposal or the types of activities likely to result from the proposal, would affect the item at a greater intensity or at a faster rate than if the proposal were not implemented. Respond briefly and in general terms. 1. How would the proposal be likely to increase discharge to water; emissions to air; production, storage, or release of toxic or hazardous substances; or production of noise? To the extent this Plan makes it more likely that school facilities will be constructed, and/or renovated or remodeled, some of these environmental impacts will be more likely. Additional impermeable surfaces, such as roofs, parking lots, sidewalks, access roads and playgrounds will increase storm water runoff, which could enter surface or ground water. Emissions to air could result from heating systems, emergency generators and other equipment, and from additional car and bus trips to and from the school for students and faculty. Any emissions resulting from this Plan should not require the production, storage, or release of toxic or hazardous substances, with the possible exception of storage of diesel fuel or gasoline for emergency generating equipment. Noise may result from additional traffic and from concentrating several hundred children at a new facility, especially before and after school and during recesses. To the extent this proposal allows additional residential development to occur, these impacts would also increase somewhat, but it is not possible to quantify those impacts at this time. The impacts would depend on the type, location and distribution of housing, for example, whether single or multiple family and the location of the school. Proposed measures to avoid or reduce such increases are: Facilities implementing the Plan have been or will be evaluated at the project specific level and impacts will be mitigated accordingly. Storm water detention and runoff will meet applicable County and/or City requirements and, depending on the date of actual construction, may be subject to a National Pollutant Discharge Elimination Page 273 of 465 System ("NPDES") permitting requirements. Discharges to air will be minimal, and will meet any applicable requirements of the Puget Sound Air Pollution Control Authority. Fuel oil will be stored according to local and state requirements. 2. How would the proposal be likely to affect plants, animals, fish, or marine life? The Plan itself will have no impact on these elements of the environment. Depending on the particular site, construction of facilities may require clearing sites of plants and loss of animal habitat. To the extent residential development is allowed, additional area may be cleared and eliminated as habitat for animals. There are not likely to be any impacts on fish or marine life, although some water quality degradation in streams and rivers could occur due to increased residential development. These impacts have been or will be addressed in more detail during project-specific environmental review when appropriate. Proposed measures to protect or conserve plants, animals, fish, or marine life are: Individual projects will be evaluated and mitigated appropriately on a project-specific basis, but specific mitigation proposals cannot be identified at this time. 3. How would the proposal be likely to deplete energy or natural resources? Any actual projects resulting from this Plan would consume heating fuel and electrical energy. Increased traffic resulting from the construction of additional facilities would consume petroleum based fuels. Reduced traffic resulting from construction of another neighborhood school may also reduce amounts of fuel consumed, but it is not possible to quantify such reduction in consumption at this time. These impacts have been or will be addressed in more detail during project- specific environmental review when appropriate. Proposed measures to protect or conserve energy and natural resources are: Facilities would be constructed in accordance with applicable energy efficiency standards. 4. How would the proposal be likely to use or affect environmentally sensitive areas or areas designated (or eligible or under study)for governmental protection; such as parks, wilderness, wild and scenic rivers, threatened or endangered species habitat, historic or cultural sites, wetlands, floodplains, or prime farmlands? The Plan and facilities constructed pursuant to the Plan should have no impact on these resources. It is not possible to predict whether other development made possible by this Plan would affect sensitive areas. Proposed measures to protect such resources or to avoid or reduce impacts are: No specific measures are being proposed at this time. Appropriate measures have been or will be proposed during project-specific review. Annual updates of this Plan Page 274 of 465 will be coordinated with Pierce County, City of Auburn and City of Sumner as part of the Growth Management Act process, one of the purposes of which is to protect environmentally sensitive areas. To the extent the School District's facilities planning process is part of the overall growth management planning process, these resources are more likely to be protected. 5. How would the proposal be likely to affect land and shoreline use, including whether it would allow or encourage land or shoreline uses incompatible with existing plans? The Plan will not have any impact on land or shoreline use that is incompatible existing comprehensive plans, land use codes, or shoreline management plans. Proposed measures to avoid or reduce shoreline and land use impacts are: None are proposed at this time. Actual facilities constructed to implement the Plan will be sited and constructed to avoid or reduce land use impacts. fi. How would the proposal be likely to increase demands on transportation or public services and utilities? This proposal should not create substantial new demands for transportation.The projects included in the Capital Facilities Plan may create an increase in traffic near new District facilities but also reduce traffic by creating the opportunity for more students to walk to a closer school. The construction of the facilities included in the Capital Facilities Plan may result in minor increases in the demand for public services and utilities, such as fire and police protection, and water, sewer, and electric utilities. None of these impacts are likely to be significant. The impacts on transportation and public services and utilities of the projects included in the Capital Facilities Plan will be addressed during project-level review when appropriate. Proposed measures to reduce or respond to such demand(s) are: No measures to reduce or respond to such demands are proposed at this time. 7. Identify, if possible, whether the proposal may conflict with local, state, or federal laws or requirements for the protection of the environment. The Dieringer School District Capital Facilities Plan will not conflict with any laws or requirements for the protection of the environment.

This plan will be submitted for consideration to each of the jurisdictions located within the Federal Way Public Schools' service area:King County,the City of Kent,City of Federal Way, and the City of Auburn and is incorporated in the Comprehensive Plans of each jurisdiction by reference. This plan is requested to be included in the Facilities Plan element of the Comprehensive Plans of each jurisdiction. To date, the City of Des Moines has not adopted a school impact fee ordinance. The City of Des Moines collects school mitigation fees as part of the SEPA process. Discussions with the City of Milton to adopt an ordinance for school impact fees for parcels located within the Federal Way School District's service area is in process. The Growth Management Act requires the County to designate Urban Growth areas within which urban growth can be encouraged. The Growth Management Planning Council adopted and recommended to the King County Council Urban Growth Area Line Maps with designations for urban centers. A designation was made within the Federal Way planning area, which encompasses Federal Way Public Schools boundaries. King County will encourage and actively support the development of Urban Centers to meet the region's need for housing,jobs, services, culture, and recreation. This Plan's estimated population growth is prepared with this underlying assumption. This Capital Facilities Plan will be used as documentation for any jurisdiction which requires its use to meet the needs of the Growth Management Act. This plan is not intended to be the sole planning tool for all of the District needs. The District may prepare interim plans consistent with Board policies or management need. Currently Federal Way Public Schools is nearing the end of Phase 2 Bond projects supporting school expansion and replacement as authorized by the voters in 2017. Prior to the passage of the Phase 2 Bond the District formed a 100-member Facilities Planning Committee consisting of parents, community members and staff This Committee was tasked with developing a recommendation to the Superintendent regarding Phase 2 of the District's plan for school construction, remodeling, and/or modernization for voter consideration in November 2017. The voters passed this $450M bond authorization with a 62%YES vote reflecting a commitment to invest in the modernization of our infrastructure. As of today, the District has completed Thomas Jefferson High School, Evergreen Middle School, Lake Grove Elementary, Mirror Lake Elementary, Star Lake Elementary, Wildwood Elementary, Olympic View K-8 and Memorial Field. Illahee Middle School is currently about 95% complete and will be ready to move in once school is out in June 2025. 2 Page 279 of 465 FEDERAL WAY PUBLIC SCHOOLS 2026 CAPITAL FACILITIES PLAN INTRODUCTION, continued The rebuilding of the schools has and will continue to create additional capacity for students at the elementary and high school levels. The District continues to monitor factors that may have an impact on enrollment and capacity at our schools, including new single-family and multi-family residential developments and any impacts due to the COVID-19. In accordance with the McCleary decision, the State has provided funding to reduce K-3 class size to 17 and 4-12 class size to 25. Beginning in 2019-20 the legislature expected compliance with this funding adding pressure to the need for elementary capacity. In response to this need the district has acquired a commercial building to renovate into classrooms to provide permanent additional capacity. The COVID-19 pandemic negatively affected brick and mortar enrollment in recent years, as well as increased enrollment in the Internet Academy. However, the District's 2022-23 enrollment was higher than projected. We have seen similar growth in the 2023-2024 and 2024-2025 school years, although we have not yet reached our Pre-Covid enrollment numbers. We are anticipating continued enrollment growth, especially considering the City of Federal Way's plans to increase housing in the downtown core in conjunction with Sound Transit's Link Light Rail development. The District has increased capacity at the elementary level over the past several years and shows no unhoused scholars based on the six-year enrollment projections (even with projected growth at that level). The 2026 Capital Facilities Plan shows fairly flat enrollment; however, we will monitor and adjust accordingly our projections yearly based on new housing developments currently being proposed to open in 2027 and beyond. 3 Page 280 of 465 FEDERAL WAY PUBLIC SCHOOLS 2026 CAPITAL FACILITIES PLAN SECTION 1 -THE CAPITAL FACILITIES PLAN The State Growth Management Act requires that several pieces of information be gathered to determine the facilities available and needed to meet the needs of a growing community. This section provides information about current facilities, existing facility needs, and expected future facility requirements for Federal Way Public Schools.

The Federal Way Public Academy serves students in grades 6-10. The programs at Open Doors and Career Academy at Truman High School serve students in grades 9-12. In addition to these programs, TAF@Saghalie serves students in grades 6-12 who reside within the service area and the Employment and Transition Program (ETP) at the Norman Center serves 18-21-year-old scholars. The Growth Management Act requires that a jurisdiction evaluate if the public facility infrastructure is in place to handle new housing developments. In the case of most public facilities, new developments have major impacts on the facilities immediately adjacent to that development. School districts are different. If the district does not have permanent facilities available, interim measures must be taken until new facilities can be built or until boundaries can be adjusted to match the population changes to the surrounding facilities. It is important to realize that a single housing development does not require the construction of a complete school facility. School districts are required to project growth throughout the district and build or adjust boundaries based on growth throughout the district, not just around a single development. Adjusting boundaries requires careful consideration by the district and is not taken lightly. It is recognized that there is a potential impact on students who are required to change schools. Boundary adjustments impact the whole district, not just one school. The final map included represents the city and county boundaries which overlap with the district's service areas. • City of Algona • City of Auburn • City of Des Moines • City of Federal Way • City of Kent • City of Milton • Unincorporated King County 11 Page 288 of 465 FEDERAL WAY PUBLIC SCHOOLS 2026 CAPITAL FACILITIES PLAN MAP—CITY AND COUNTY JURISDICTIONS FEDERAL WAY 11 PUBLIC SCHOOLS Each Scholar!

The Superintendent of Public Instruction establishes square footage guidelines for capacity, but these guidelines do not take into consideration the education program needs. In general, the District's current target class size provides that the average class size for a standard classroom for grades K through 3 should be 17 students to comply with current legislation. In grades 4-5 the target is 25 students. For grades 6 to 12 the target class size is 26 students. Classrooms for students with Individualized Education Program(Special Education) needs are calculated at 12 seats per classroom. Historically, the District has used the OSPI square footage calculation as a baseline for capacity calculation and made adjustments for specific program needs. The District will continue to use this calculation for determining capacity at our middle and high schools. However, for elementary school capacity will be calculated based on the number of classroom spaces and the number of students assigned to each classroom.

Special Education Resource Rooms: Each middle school requires the use of a standard classroom(s) for special education students requiring instruction to address specific disabilities. English as a Second Language Programs: Each middle school and high school require the use of a standard classroom for students learning English as a second language. Middle School Computer Labs: Each middle school has computer labs, except Evergreen Middle School. Wireless access has been installed at all secondary schools. If additional classroom space is needed, these computer labs may be converted to mobile carts. 14 Page 291 of 465 FEDERAL WAY PUBLIC SCHOOLS 2026 CAPITAL FACILITIES PLAN BUILDING CAPACITIES, continued High School Career Development and Learning Center (Resource) Room: Each high school provides special education resource room and career development classrooms for students requiring instruction to address specific disabilities. Preschool/ECEAP: Our district currently offers preschool programs for both special needs & typically developing students at 9 elementary schools. We also have the ECEAP program at 10 sites (6 elementary schools, 3 high schools, and 1 commercial site). These programs decrease capacity at those schools. Alternative Learning Experience: Federal Way offers students the opportunity to participate in an Alternative Learning Experience through our Internet Academy. These students have never been included in the capacity calculation of unhoused students. 1418 Youth Reengagement: Federal Way offers students the opportunity to participate in 1418 Youth Reengagement Open Doors program. These students are housed at the Truman campus but are not currently included in the capacity calculation of unhoused students. 15 Page 292 of 465 FEDERAL WAY PUBLIC SCHOOLS 2026 CAPITAL FACILITIES PLAN BUILDING CAPACITIES, continued ELEMENTARY BUILDING MIDDLE SCHOOL BUILDING PROGRAM CAPACITY PROGRAM CAPACITY School Name Headcount 'Preschool School Name Headcount Adelaide 392 30 Illahee 855 Brigadoon 408 30 Kilo 779 Camelot 378 30 Lakota 786 Enterprise 524 15 Sacajawea 694 Green Gables 439 Sequoyah 585 Lake Dolloff 535 Evergreen 795 Lake Grove 558 30 TAF @ Saghalie 598 Lakeland 455 Federal Way Public Academy 183 Mark Twain 515 TOTAL 5,275 Meredith Hill 606 15 Mirror Lake 514 30 I*1Vhddle School Average r 727 I Nautilus(K-8) 512 Olympic View(K-8) 429 HIGH SCHOOL BUILDING Panther Lake 501 15 PROGRAM CAPACITY Rainier View 607 30 Sherwood Forest 451 6 School Name Headcount Silver Lake 476 Decatur 1243 Star Lake 544 30 Federal Way 1684 Sunnycrest 636 Thomas Jefferson 1600 Twin Lakes 413 30 Todd Beamer 1085 Valhalla 598 TAF @Saghalie 155 Wildwood 597 30 Career Academy at Truman 159 Woodmont(K-8) 474 Federal Way Public Academy 116 TOTAL 11,562 321 Employment Transition Program 48 TOTAL 6,090 Elementary Average I 503 I I 1 ZHigh School Average r 1,403 I Notes: 'Preschool enrollment reduces capacity for K-5 students. 15 preschool students in one classroom. 2Federal Way Public Academy,Career Academy at Truman High School,and Employment Transition Program and TAF @ Saghalie for the high school school grade span(9-12)are non-boundary schools.

It is not an efficient use of District resources to build a school with a capacity for 500 students due to lack of space for 25 students when enrollment fluctuates throughout the year and from year to year. Portables are used as interim measures to house students when increasing population impacts a school attendance area. Portables may also be required to house students when new or changing programs require additional capacity. They also provide housing for students until permanent facilities can be financed and constructed. When permanent facilities become available, the portable(s) is either used for other purposes such as storage or childcare programs or moved to another school for an interim classroom. Some portables may not be fit to move due to age or physical condition. In these cases, the District may choose to buy new portables and surplus these unfit portables. With the school expansion projects funded through the 2017 Bond, new capacity has been created within the new schools and portables have been eliminated from these campuses. The following page provides a list of the location of the portable facilities used for educational facilities by Federal Way Public Schools. 17 Page 294 of 465 FEDERAL WAY PUBLIC SCHOOLS 2026 CAPITAL FACILITIES PLAN PORTABLE LOCATIONS, continued PORTABLES LOCATED PORTABLES LOCATED AT ELEMENTARY SCHOOLS AT HIGH SCHOOLS NON NON INS TRUCTIONAL INS TRUCTIONAL* INS TRUCTIONAL INS TRUCTIONAL Adelaide 1 2 Decatur 8 Brigadoon 1 Federal Way I Camelot 1 Thomas Jefferson Enterprise 3 Todd Beamer 8 Green Gables 1 TOTAL 16 ILake Dolloff 5 1 (Lake Grove Lakeland IMark Twain 3 Meredith Hill 3 PORTABLES LOCATED Mirror Lake AT SUPPORT FACILITIES 'Nautilus 3 Olympic View MOT Panther Lake 4 TDC 9 IRainier View 5 Former TA FA I Sherwood Forest 2 2 TOTAL 9 Silver Lake 1 3 Star Lake Sunnycrest 6 DISTRICT PORTABLES IN USE FOR ECEAP I Twin Lakes 1 2 AND/OR HEADS TART Valhalla 4 Sherwood Forest 2 Wildwood Evergreen Woodmont 3 Total 2 I TOTAL 47 10 PORTABLES LOCATED AT MIDDLE SCHOOLS N ON INSTRUCTIONAL INSTRUCTIONAL Illahee Kilo 1 6 Lakota Sacajawea 5 Sequoyah 2 Evergreen TAF@ Saghalie 4 TOTAL 10 8 • 18 Page 295 of 465 FEDERAL WAY PUBLIC SCHOOLS 2026 CAPITAL FACILITIES PLAN STUDENT FORECAST Student enrollment projections are a basic component of budget development and facility need. Enrollment projections influence many of the financial estimates that go into budget preparation. The majority of staffing requirements are derived directly from the forecasted number of students. Allocations for instructional supplies and materials are also made based on projected enrollment. Other expenditures and certain revenue projections are directly related to enrollment projections. Enrollment projections are completed annually in the Business Services Department. Projections must be detailed at various levels, district total, school-building totals, grade level and program level to include vocational and special education students. The basis of projections has been cohort survival analysis. Cohort survival is the analysis of a group that has a common statistical value (grade level) as it progresses through time. In a stable population the cohort would be 1.00 for all grades. This analysis uses historical information to develop averages and project the averages forward. This method does not trace individual students; it is concerned with aggregate numbers in each grade level. The district has used this method with varying years of history and weighted factors to study several projections. Because transfers in and out of the school system are common, student migration is factored into the analysis as it increases or decreases survival rates. Entry grades (kindergarten) are a unique problem in cohort analysis. The district collects information on birth rates within the district's census tracts and treats these statistics as a cohort for kindergarten enrollment in the appropriate years. The Federal Way School District is using various statistical methods for projecting student enrollments. The resultant forecasted enrollments are evaluated below. In February 2025, the District contracted a demographer to develop projections for the Federal Way School District. The model used to forecast next year's enrollment uses cohort survival rates to measure grade to grade growth, assumes market share losses to private schools (consistent with county-wide average), assumes growth from new housing or losses due to net losses from migration. This forecast was provided as a range of three projections. The long-range forecast provided with this report used a model with cohort survival rates and growth rates based on projected changes in the 5-19 age group for King County. The difference between projected enrollment and actual for Fall 2024 was less than 1% in the positive with 20,690 projected and 21,148 actual. 19 Page 296 of 465 FEDERAL WAY PUBLIC SCHOOLS 2026 CAPITAL FACILITIES PLAN STUDENT FORECAST, CON'T October 1 Head Count Enrollment History and Projections Percent Calendar Yr School Year Hementary Middle School High School Total K-12 Change 2019 2019-20 9.953 5.309 6.516 21.778 2020 2020-21 9.192 4,990 6,385 20,567 -5.6% 2021 2021-22 9.062 4,850 6,393 20.305 -1.3% 2022 2022-23 9.317 4,719 6,532 20.568 1.3% 2023 2023-24 9.461 4,714 6,521 20.696 0.6% 2024 2024-25 9.612 4,893 6,643 21.148 2.2% 2025 B2025-26 9,618 4,794 6,558 20,970 -0.8% 2026 P2026-27 9,628 4,799 6,565 20,991 0.1% 2027 P2027-28 9,637 4,804 6,571 21,012 0.1% 2028 P2028-29 9,647 4,808 6,578 21,033 0.1% 2029 P2029-30 9,657 4,813 6,584 21,054 0.2% 2030 P2030-31 9,666 4,818 6,591 21,075 0.3% 2031 P2031-32 9,676 4,823 6,597 21,096 0.3% Elemenfaty K 5 Middle School 6-8 High School 9-12 Includes Open Doors and Internet Academy IExcludes Preschool and Full-time Running Start Enrollment History and Six Year Forecast 25,000 22,500 20,000 17,500 i 15,000 co = 12,500 m t 1D,DDD in 7,500 5,000 2,500 0 or'' OHO 0`) o`-) mac-) orb �0 �pr� apr� a0r� a�r� a�� �0i) S 6' rP 9 D School Year: Actual• Budgeted• Projected■ 20 Page 297 of 465 FEDERAL WAY PUBLIC SCHOOLS 2026 CAPITAL FACILITIES PLAN STUDENT FORECAST, continued Most of the methods used for long range enrollment reporting assume that enrollment is a constant percent of something else (e.g. population) or that enrollment will mirror some projected trend for the school-age population over time. The report included 5 different calculations to provide a range of possible projections for the District to the year 2034. This model produces a projection that is between 20,933 to 23,730 when applied to the low, medium, and high range modes. This provides a reasonable range for long-range planning and is consistent with estimates from various models. Long-range projections that establish the need for facilities are a modification of the cohort survival method. The cohort method of analysis becomes less reliable the farther out the projections are made. The Federal Way School District long-range projections are studied annually. The study includes information from the jurisdictional demographers as they project future housing and population in the region. The long-range projections used by Federal Way Public Schools reflect a similar age trend in student populations as the projections published by the Office of Financial Management for the State of Washington. Near term projections assume some growth from new housing, which is offset by current local economic conditions. The District tracks new development from five permitting jurisdictions. Long range planning assumes a student yield from proposed new housing consistent with historical growth patterns. Growth Management requires jurisdictions to plan for a minimum of twenty years. The Federal Way School District is a partner in this planning with the various jurisdictions comprising the school district geography. These projections create a vision of the school district community in the future. The COVID-19 pandemic negatively affected brick and mortar enrollment in recent years, as well as increased enrollment in the Internet Academy. As we move farther away from the effects of COVID-19,we hope to see continued enrollment growth, especially considering the City of Federal Way's plans to increase housing in the down-town core in conjunction with Sound Transit's Link Light Rail development. 21 Page 298 of 465 FEDERAL WAY PUBLIC SCHOOLS 2026 CAPITAL FACILITIES PLAN SECTION 4—KING COUNTY, CITY OF FEDERAL WAY,AND CITY OF KENT IMPACT FEE CALCULATIONS Capacity Summaries Site & Construction Costs Allocations Student Generation Rates Impact Fee Calculations Reference to Impact Fee Calculations 22 Page 299 of 465 FEDERAL WAY PUBLIC SCHOOLS 2026 CAPITAL FACILITIES PLAN CAPACITY SUMMARIES All Grades, Elementary, Middle School, and High Schools The Capacity Summaries combine Building Capacity information, Portable Capacity information and the Student Forecast information. The result demonstrates the requirements for new or remodeled facilities and why there is a need for the District to use temporary facilities or interim measures. The District has recently adjusted its capacity calculation method for Elementary schools to better show capacity needed to comply with the K-3 Class Size Reduction. This adjustment is also shown in the portable capacity calculation. In order to allow for flexibility in portable usage the District will use an average class size calculation of 21 for each Elementary portable and an average class size of 25 for each Middle and High School portable. The information is organized with a page summarizing the entire District, and then evaluating capacity vs. number of students at elementary, middle school, and high school levels individually. The notes at the bottom of each spreadsheet provide information about what facilities are in place each year. 23 Page 300 of 465 FEDERAL WAY PUBLIC SCHOOLS 2026 CAPITAL FACILITIES PLAN CAPACITY

Residences Each jurisdiction that imposes school impact fees requires that developers pay these fees to help cover a share of the impact of new housing developments on school facilities. To determine a proportionate share of the costs of growth-related facilities, the District uses a formula first adopted by King County. The formula uses growth related facilities costs, and provides credits for any anticipated State School Construction Assistance Program funds related to the project, and a credit for the anticipated property taxes that would be assessed against the unit for the costs of the same improvement. The final unfunded need is then discounted by 50%based on the code requirement. This formula can be found in King County Code 21A and was substantially adopted by the City of Auburn, Federal Way, and Kent. The formula requires the District to establish a "Student Generation Factor" which estimates how many students will be added to a school district by each new single or multi-family unit and to gather some standard construction costs, which are unique to that district. Impact Fee Calculation When applicable, the CFP includes variables for the calculation of the Impact Fee for single family and multi-family units based on King County Code 21A and the Growth Management Act.

This annual Plan update was prepared using data available in the spring of 2025 for the 2024-2025 school year. This annual update of the Plan reflects no new major capital projects. This Plan is consistent with prior long-term capital facilities plans adopted by the Kent School District. This Plan is not intended to be the sole planning document for all the District's needs. The District may prepare interim and periodic Long-Range Capital Facilities Plans consistent with Board Policies, considering a longer or shorter period, other factors and trends in the use of facilities, and other needs of the District as may be required. Prior Capital Facilities Plans of the Kent School District have been adopted by Metropolitan King County Council and Cities of Kent, Covington, Auburn, and Renton and included in the Capital Facilities Plan element of the Comprehensive Plans of each jurisdiction. This Plan has also been submitted to the cities of Black Diamond, Maple Valley, and SeaTac for their information and inclusion in their Comprehensive Plans. In order for impact fees to be collected in the unincorporated areas of Kent School District, the Metropolitan King County Council must adopt this Plan and a fee-implementing ordinance for the District. For impact fees to be collected in the incorporated portions of the District,the cities of Kent, Covington, Renton and Auburn must also adopt this Plan and their own school impact fee ordinances. This Capital Facilities Plan establishes a standard of service in order to ascertain current and future capacity. While the State Superintendent of Public Instruction establishes square footage guidelines for capacity,those guidelines do not account for local program needs in the District. The Growth Management Act, King County and City codes and ordinances authorize the District to make adjustments to the standard of service based on specific needs for students of the District. This Plan includes the standard of service as established by Kent School District. Functional capacity is based on an average capacity and updated to reflect changes to special programs served in each building. Portables in the interim capacity calculation use the same standard of service as the permanent facilities. 1 Page 312 of 465 The capacity of each school in the District is calculated based on the District's standard of service and the existing inventory of permanent facilities. The District's program capacity of permanent facilities reflects program changes and the state's mandated reduction of class size to meet the standard of service for Kent School District. Portables provide additional interim capacity. Kent School District is the fifth largest (FTE basis) district in the state. Enrollment is electronically reported monthly to the Office of the Superintendent of Public Instruction ("OSPI")on Form P-223.Although funding apportionment is based on Annual Average Full Time Equivalent (AAFTE), enrollment on October 1 is a widely recognized "snapshot in time"that is used to report the District's enrollment for the year as reported to OSPI (See Table 1). The District's standard of service, enrollment history and projections, and use of interim facilities are reviewed in detail in various sections of this Plan. The District plans to continue to satisfy concurrency requirements through the interim use of portables. This Plan currently represents projects in progress funded primarily by the Kent School District's 2016 Bond,the 2018 Capital Levy, and our newly passed 2024 Capital and Tech Levy. Additional information about these projects can be found on the District's capital projects homepage (link). Additionally, project updates sent to our community of stakeholders can be accessed on the KSD website (link). Based on revised student generation rates, our capacity and enrollment projections, the District will stay current with non-collection of student impact fee rate for the coming year.

For this Plan, the District used data from OSPI Information and Condition of Schools (ICOS), Report 1049. King County live births and the District's relational percentage average were used to determine the number of kindergartners entering the system (See Table 2). 7.5%of 23,390 King County live births in 2021 is projected for 1,755 students expected in Kindergarten for October 1,2025.This is a decrease of 248 live births in King County over the previous year. The District's enrollment from 2025-26 to 2030-31 is projected to decrease by an average of 1.5% each year or a total of 2,089 students. The projected enrollment for 2030-31 is 22,343. Early Childhood Education students (also identified as "ECE"), "Early Childhood Special Education ("ECSE") students are forecasted and reported to OSPI separately on Form P-223H for Special Education Enrollment. Capacity is reserved to serve students in the ECE programs at elementary schools. Within practical limits,the District has kept abreast of proposed developments. The District will continue to track new development activity to determine impact on schools. Information on new residential developments and the completion of these proposed developments in all jurisdictions will be considered in the District's future analysis of growth projections. The Kent School District serves eight permitting jurisdictions: unincorporated King County, the cities of Kent, Covington, Renton, and Auburn and smaller portions of the cities of SeaTac, Black Diamond, and Maple Valley. 4 Page 315 of 465 STUDENT GENERATION FACTOR "Student Generation Factor" is defined by King County code as"the number derived by a school district to describe how many students of each grade span are expected to be generated by a dwelling unit" based on district records of average actual student generated rates for developments completed within the last ten years. Following these guidelines, the student generation rate for Kent School District is as follows: Single Family Elementary 0.222 Middle 0.092 High 0.116 Total 0.430 Multi-Family Elementary 0.075 Middle 0.030 High 0.032 Total 0.137 The student generation factor is based on 1,927 new SFD (Single Family Detached) units built between 2018 and 2023. The student generation factor is based on 1,908 new MF (Multi- Family) units built during the same period. The multi-family units consisted of 1,590 apartment units and 318 townhome units. The District sees an average of 43 students for every 100 single family units that are built and an average of 14 students for every 100 multi-family units that are built. The rate for apartment units is higher than for townhome units. The rate for apartments can vary, depending on the affordability of the units and the number of bedrooms per unit for specific buildings. Many of the apartment units built between 2018 and 2023 have market rate rents and they tend to have fewer bedrooms per unit than some of the buildings that were completed in 2016 and 2017.The multi-family rate is lower this year than it was in March 2024 because the date range used in the analysis includes fewer affordable units and fewer multiple bedroom units. In preparing the 2024-2025 to 2030-2031 Capital Facilities Plan the District contracted with Educational Data Solutions, LLC led by Dr. Les Kendrick, a noted expert in demographic studies for school districts, to analyze and prepare the student generation factor. 5 Page 316 of 465 KENT SCHOOL DISTRICT No. 415 ENROLLMENT PROJECTION King County Live Births 2024 2025 2026 Description/Year 2021 2022 2023 (Proj) (Proj) (Proj) King County Live Births 23,390 23,012 22,408 22,236 22,065 21,896 Increase/(Decrease) (248) (378) (604) (172) (171) (169) Kindergarten/Birth (%) 7.5% 7.5% 7.6% 7.6% 7.5% 7.5% Source:https://doh.wa.gov/data-and-statistical-reports/washington-tracking-network-wtn/county-all-births- dashboard Enrollment Projection Grade/Fiscal Year 2025-26 2026-27 2027-28 2028-29 2029-30 2030-31 K 1,755 1,732 1,710 1,687 1,665 1,643 1 1,841 1,784 1,760 1,738 1,714 1,692 2 1,794 1,842 1,785 1,761 1,739 1,715 3 1,956 1,793 1,841 1,784 1,760 1,738 4 1,963 1,949 1,787 1,834 1,778 1,754 5 1,928 1,946 1,932 1,771 1,818 1,762 6 1,906 1,910 1,928 1,914 1,755 1,801 7 1,882 1,861 1,865 1,882 1,868 1,713 8 1,929 1,861 1,840 1,844 1,861 1,847 9 1,930 1,924 1,856 1,835 1,839 1,856 10 1,895 1,902 1,896 1,829 1,808 1,812 11 1,684 1,639 1,645 1,639 1,582 1,563 12 1,631 1,540 1,499 1,504 1,499 1,447 Total Enrollment 24,094 23,683 23,344 23,022 22,686 22,343 Yearly Increase/ (Decrease) (338) (411) (339) (322) (336) (343) Cumulative Increase/ (Decrease) (338) (749) (1,088) (1,410) (1,746) (2,089) Source:School Facilities Organization,Information and Condition of Schools(Report 1049) Enrollment 26,512 26,529 26,523 25,833 25,912 24,543 24,480 24,435 24,432 24,151 24,094 23,683 23,344 23,022 22,686 22,343 2015-16 2016-17 2017-18 2018-19 2019-20 2020-21 2021-22 2022-23 2023-24 2024-25 2025-26 2026-27 2027-28 2028-29 2029-30 2030-31 6 (Prol) (Prol) (Prof) (Prol) (Pros) (Pra11 TABLE 2 Page 317 of 465 Ill - Current Kent School District "Standard of Service" In order to determine the capacity of facilities in a school district, King County Code 21A.06.1225 references a "standard of service" that each school district must establish to ascertain its overall capacity. The standard of service identifies the program year, the class size, the number of classrooms, students and programs of special need, and other factors determined by the district which would best serve the student population. This Plan includes the standard of service as established by Kent School District. The District has identified schools with significant special needs programs as "impact" schools and the standard of service targets a lower-class size at those facilities. Portables included in the capacity calculation use the same standard of service as the permanent facilities. The standard of service defined herein will continue to evolve in the future. Kent School District is continuing a long-term strategic planning process combined with review of changes to capacity and standard of service. This process will affect various aspects of the District's standard of service and future changes will be reflected in future capital facilities plans. Current Standards of Service for Elementary Students • Class size ratio for grades K- 3 is planned for an average of 24 students per class, not to exceed 26. • Class size ratio for grades 4 - 5 is planned for an average of 27 students per class, not to exceed 29. Some special programs require specialized classroom space and the program capacity of some of the buildings housing these programs is reduced. Some students, for example, leave their regular classroom for a short period of time to receive instruction in special programs and space must be allocated to serve these programs. Students may also be provided with music instruction and physical education in a separate classroom or facility. Some identified students will also be provided educational opportunities in classrooms for special programs such as those designated as follows: Career and Technical Education (CTE)—State Program Closing Educational Achievement Gaps (Title I — Part A) - Federal Program Highly Capable Students (HiCap) - State Program 7 Page 318 of 465 Learning Assistance Program (LAP)—State Program Multilingual Education (MLE) - State Program Inclusive Education Service for Elementary and Secondary students with disabilities may be provided in a separate or self-contained classroom sometimes with a capacity of 10-15 students, depending on the program. Current District Standards of Service for Secondary Students The standards of service outlined below reflect only those programs and educational opportunities provided to secondary students which directly affect the capacity of the school buildings per the negotiated collective bargaining agreement with KEA. • The average class size ratio for grades 6-8 is 28 students per class and 135 students per day, with a maximum daily class load/enrollment of 142 based on five class periods per day. • The average class size ratio for grades 9-12 is 32 students per class and 153 students per day, with a maximum daily class load/enrollment of 160 based on five class periods per day. Like Inclusive Education Programs listed above, many other secondary programs require specialized classroom space which can reduce the functional capacity of the permanent school buildings, such as technology labs, performing arts activities, a variety of career and technical education programs, and other specialized programs. Space or Classroom Utilization As a result of scheduling conflicts for student programs,the need for specialized rooms for certain programs, and the need for teachers to have a workspace during their planning periods, it is not possible to achieve 100% utilization of regular teaching stations at secondary schools. Based on the analysis of actual utilization of classrooms, the Kent School District has determined that the standard utilization rate is 64% for secondary schools. Functional capacity at elementary schools reflects 56% utilization at the elementary level. 8 Page 319 of 465 IV - Inventory and Capacity of Existing Schools Currently, the District has a total functional capacity to house 39,705 students, which consists of a permanent functional capacity of 35,494 and interim (portable) capacity of 4,211. This capacity is based on the District's Standard of Service as set forth in Section III. Included in this Plan is an inventory of the District's schools by type, address and current capacity(See Table 3). The ratio between permanent capacity and portable capacity is 89%- 11%. The functional capacity is periodically updated for changes in the programs, additional classrooms, and new schools. Functional capacity has been updated in this Plan to reflect program changes implemented in the fall of 2024. Calculations of Elementary, Middle School and High School capacities are set forth in Table 3. Maps of existing schools are included. For clarification, the following is a brief description of some of the non-traditional programs for students in Kent School District: iGrad - Kent School District has developed the Individualized Graduation and Degree Program or "iGrad". iGrad is an Open Door (Drop-out Reengagement) School that offers a second plus chance to students aged 16-21 who have dropped out of high school or are at risk of not earning a high school diploma by age 21. iGrad is not included in this Capital Facilities Plan, because it is served as a leased space at the Kent Hill Plaza Shopping Center. Over the past three years, enrollment in the iGrad program has averaged over 340 students. Kent Virtual Academy - The Kent Virtual Academy is open to grades 6-12 and is currently serving 167 students. The virtual school offers a flexible learning experience designed to engage students when and where they work best. Each school day includes a combination of live (synchronous) virtual instruction and on-demand (asynchronous) learning opportunities outside of a traditional bell schedule. Students can attend live virtual lessons with their teachers and classmates, participate in live virtual class or small group discussions, check-in or meet with teachers, watch recorded video lessons, work independently on projects and lessons, participate in learning experiences outside the school setting for credit or to meet competencies.Virtual school students may also attend their boundary school for select classes and services. 9 Page 320 of 465 SCHOOL Year 2024-2025 ABR ADDRESS Opened Functional Carriage Crest Elementary 1990 CC 18235 - 140th Avenue SE, Renton 98058 626 Cedar Valley Elementary 1971 CV 26500 Timberlane Way SE, Covington 98042 541 Covington Elementary 2018 CO 25811 156th Avenue SE, Covington 98042 744 Crestwood Elementary 1980 CW 25225 - 180th Avenue SE, Covington 98042 602 East Hill Elementary 1953 EH 9825 S 240th Street, Kent 98031 779 Emerald Park Elementary 1999 EP 11800 SE 216th Street, Kent 98031 653 Fairwood Elementary 1969 FW 16600- 148th Avenue SE, Renton 98058 528 George T.

This bonding authority provided for the replacement of Covington Elementary school,which opened in August of 2018, the new River Ridge Elementary school, and our new Kent Laboratory Academy, which both opened in August 2021. As a critical component of capital facilities planning, county and city planners and decision- makers are encouraged to consider safe walking conditions for all students when reviewing applications and design plans for new roads and developments. This should include sidewalks for pedestrian safety to and from schools and bus stops, as well as bus pull-outs and turn- arounds. Included in this Plan is an inventory of potential projects and sites identified by the District which are potentially acceptable site alternatives in the future (See Table 4&Sitemap). Voter approved bond issues have included funding for the purchase of sites for future schools and district use; the sites acquired to date are included in this Plan. Some funding is secured for the purchase of additional sites but may also be funded with impact fees as needed. Not all undeveloped properties meet current school construction requirements, and some property may be traded or sold to meet future facility needs. The Board will continue an annual review of standards of service and those decisions will be reflected in each update of the Capital Facilities Plan. The Kent School District continues to make improvements to the facilities through completion of the 2016 Bond, 2018 Levy, and the recent voter approved 2024 Levy. At this moment the standing of the current measures are as follows: Measure Complete In Progress Not Started 2016 Bond 85% 13% 2% 2018 Levy 72% 13% 15% 2024 Levy 0% 14% 86% The Kent School District anticipates and is planning to run a Bond in 2028 for additional emergent needs, differed maintenance, tenant improvement projects, and possible facility replacement. As a part of the planning process, the District has been tracking a few major development projects which have affected enrollment and will continue to increase students' forecasts. On Meeker Street in Kent, we have seen several major apartment complexes, ETHOS and Midtown 64 Apartments. These continue to have an impact on enrollment as they fill up their newly built facilities. The Alexian Gateway Project is located on the corner of Military Road 14 Page 325 of 465 and Veterans Drive in Kent and began occupying its 283 units in 2023-2024. In Covington,we are tracking a multi-family house development which has been approved and construction has begun. The 1700-unit Lakepointe Urban Community will fall within our enrollment boundary and proposed completion of Phase 4 is shown to be 2027.

Based on enrollment projections, implementation of full day kindergarten programs, lower state mandated class sizes, functional capacity, and no need for additional interim capacity, the District anticipates no need to purchase or lease additional portables during the next six- year period to ensure capacity requirement (Noted in section V. Six Yr. Planning Construction). During the time period covered by this Plan, the District does not anticipate that all of the District's portables will be replaced by permanent facilities. During the useful life of some of the portables, the school-age population may decline in some communities and increase in others, and these portables provide the flexibility to accommodate the immediate needs of the community. Portables may be used as interim facilities: 1. To prevent overbuilding or overcrowding of permanent school facilities. 2. To cover the gap between the times of demand for increased capacity and completion of permanent school facilities to meet that demand. 3. To meet unique program requirements. Portables currently in the District's inventory are continually evaluated and maintained. The District's goal is to reduce the number of portables so we may provide an equitable learning environment for all. The Plan projects that the District will use portables to accommodate interim housing needs for the next six years and beyond. The use of portables, their impacts on permanent facilities, life cycle and operational costs, and the interrelationship between portables, emerging technologies, and educational restructuring will continue to be examined. 21 Page 332 of 465 KENT SCHOOL DISTRICT FACTORS FOR ESTIMATED IMPACT FEE CALCULATIONS Student Generation Factors-Single Family Student Generation Factors-Multi-Family

periodically updated for changes in special programs and reflects class size requirements, class size fluctuations etc. As shown in the Inventory and Capacity chart in Table 3, the functional capacity is also reflected in the capacity and enrollment comparison charts (See Tables 5 & 5a-b-c). Enrollment is electronically reported to OSPI on Form P-223 on a monthly basis and funding apportionment is based on Annual Average FTE (AAFTE). The first school day of October is widely recognized as the enrollment "snapshot in time" to report enrollment for the year. Kent School District continues to be the fifth largest district (both FTE and headcount basis) in the State of Washington. The P-223 Headcount for October 2024 was 24,432, excluding ECSE and college-only Running Start students. In October 2024, there were 1,159 students in 11th and 12th grade participating in the Running Start program at different colleges and receiving credits toward both high school and college graduation. Of these students, 629 attended classes only at the college("college-only") and are excluded from FTE and headcount for capacity and enrollment comparisons. Kent School District has one of the highest Running Start program participation rates in the State. Based on the enrollment forecasts, permanent facility inventory and capacity, current standard of service, portable capacity,and future additional classroom space,the District plans to continue to satisfy the required capacity through the interim use of portables (See Table 5 and Tables 5 a-b-c). While the District currently shows available capacity to address projected need on a purely statistical basis,there are a variety of extenuating factors that need to be considered.The Kent School District currently makes significant use of portables, which we do not consider as part of our permanent standard of service. We have included portable space in our interim capacity figures, and we do not count that as a permanent space solution. Kent School District is unusual in that it incorporates neighborhoods intersecting with 8 jurisdictions, including Kent, Covington, Auburn, Black Diamond, Maple Valley, Renton, unincorporated King County and SeaTac. The district covers 72 square miles and includes over 40 schools. Within this large geographic area, we expect to have pockets of localized capacity need that are not necessarily reflected in the aggregate figures.As one example,the Lakepointe Urban Village development in Covington may require new classroom capacity even as space may exist in schools on the far other end of the District's boundaries. 25 Page 336 of 465 KENT SCHOOL DISTRICT No.415 PROJECTED ENROLLMENT and CAPACITY TOTAL DISTRICT SCHOOL YEAR I 2024-25 2025-26 I 2026-27 I 2027-28 I 2028-29 I 2029-30 I 2030-31 Actual PR OJEC T E D 'Permanent Functional Capacity 1 35,494 I 35,494 I 35,494 I 35,494 I 35,494 I 35,494 I 35,494 'Changes to Permanent Capacity Capacity Increase(F) 'Additional Permanent Classrooms 0 I 0 I 0 I 0 I 0 I 0 I 0 I Permanent Program Capacity Subtotal 35,494 35,494 35,494 35,494 35,494 35,494 35,494 'Interim Portable Capacity Elementary Portable Capacity Required 3,228 3,228 3,228 3,228 3,228 3,228 3,228 Middle School Portable Capacity Required 375 375 375 375 375 375 375 High School Portable Capacity Required 608 608 608 608 608 608 608 I Interim Portable Capacity Total 4,211 4,211 4,211 4,211 4,211 4,211 4,211 TOTAL CAPACITY 1 I 39,705 I 39,705 I 39,705 I 39,705 I 39,705 I 39,705 I 39,705 I Total Enrollment/Projection 2 I 24,432 I 24,094 I 23,683 I 23,344 I 23,022 I 22,686 I 22,343 I DISTRICT AVAILABLE CAPACITY 15,246 I 15,584 I 15,995 I 16,334 I 16,656 I 16,992 I 17,335 I 1 Capacity is based on standard of service for programs provided and is updated periodically to reflect program changes. 2 Projection Source:School Facilities Organization,Information and Condition of Schools(Report 1049) Kent School District Six-Year Capital Facilities Plan Table 5 May 2025 26 Page 337 of 465 KENT SCHOOL DISTRICT No.415 PROJECTED ENROLLMENT and CAPACITY ELEMENTARY: Grades K -

Finance Plan The finance plan shown on Table 6 demonstrates how the Kent School District plans to finance improvements for the years 2024-2025 through 2030-2031.The financing components include secured and unsecured funding and impact fees.The plan is based on future bond issues, state school construction assistance, collection of impact fees under the State Growth Management Act and voluntary mitigation fees paid pursuant to State Environmental Policy Act. In November 2016, the District held a special election to approve the authorization of $252,000,000 in bonding authority. The projects described below are part of this authorization. The first series of bonds ($80 million) were issued in February 2017, which funded the Covington Elementary Replacement School, as well as other infrastructure projects. Impact fees were used at both River Ridge Elementary School and Kent Laboratory Academy projects due to escalation in construction pricing across the Pacific Northwest. According to RCW 82.02.090, the definition of an impact fee is ". . . a payment of money imposed upon development as a condition of development approval to pay for public facilities needed to serve new growth and development, and that is reasonably related to the new development that creates additional demand and need for public facilities, that is a proportionate share of the cost of the public facilities, and that is used for facilities that reasonably benefit the new development. 'Impact fee' does not include a reasonable permit or application fee." Mitigation or impact fees can be calculated on the basis of "unhoused student need" or"the maintenance of a district's level of service" as related to new residential development. A mitigation/impact fee may be imposed based upon a determination of insufficient existing permanent and/or interim portable school space or to pay for permanent and/or newly acquired interim portable school space previously constructed as a result of growth in the district. A district's School Board must first approve the application of the mitigation or impact fees and, in turn,approval must then be granted by the other general government jurisdictions having responsibility within the district, counties, cities and towns (Kent, Covington, Renton, Auburn, Black Diamond, Maple Valley, SeaTac, and Unincorporated King County). Though the current enrollment projections increase for both elementary and secondary schools are relatively flat, the ongoing need to provide permanent instructional facilities to house students is a driving need as the shifts in our family populations continue, due to ongoing development. Previously collected impact fees may be used to support and address the challenges related to the number of interim instructional facilities currently in use, the replacement of some of these aged facilities,the maintenance of the district's level of services, and the potential expansions to existing facilities in future years. The Kent School District 2024-2025 CFP update includes continued execution of the 2016 Capital Bond Projects, the 2018 Levy Projects, and the data collection and review of our Facility Assessment Reports. The District Facilities and Capital Planning Teams had come together and joined the Capital 30 Page 341 of 465 Bond Planning Task Force (CBPTF) which included District personnel, design professionals, teaching staff, student voices, as well as community members who collaborated and discussed the District's needs. The initial plan revealed priorities including school replacement due to age, and the need for added permanent facilities to (1) reduce and eliminate our need for portables and (2) accommodate future growth as housing in the Kent region continues to expand. We started with a list of 2 billion in needs and through itemizing and prioritizing, we brought the list of essential projects to 495 million. This list was brought before the District's Board of Directors for comments, discussion, and approval. A Capital Bond Measure followed and went out to vote in April 2023 and did not pass with voter approval. After the failure to pass the 2023 Bond, we re-evaluated needs as well as next steps. Surveys went out to the community to see what people would like to prioritize from the list of needed projects. A new list of projects was presented through the 2023 Levy in November. This levy did not pass. This list was again taken and revised to prioritize projects that are critical to operations and life safety within our buildings. In April we set forth our 2024 Levy to a vote, which also did not receive the needed support to pass. We once again reduced the Levy list to include only emergent needs to critical building operations, and the measure was approved by voters in November of 2024. Future updates to this Capital Facilities Plan will include details of any adopted planning. With the opening of Canyon Ridge Middle School, our sixth grade moving from elementary to middle school, and our boundary change, we have advanced opportunities to even out capacity at each site to accommodate our programs, district-wide site capacity, and student-based needs. For the Six-Year Finance Plan, costs of future schools are based on estimates from Kent School District Capital Planning Team. Please see pages 13-14 for a summary of the cost basis. Cost Basis Summary For impact fee calculations, construction estimated costs are based on the last elementary school built in Kent, adjusted for inflation, and projected cost future elementary school, as well as average pricing of nearby school districts recently built new middle and new high school projects. Project Projected Cost New Elementary School $68,000,000 New Middle School $155,000,000 New High School $220,000,000 Site Acquisition Cost The site acquisition cost is based on an average cost of sites purchased or built on within the last ten years. Please see Table 7 for a list of site acquisition costs and averages. District Adjustment The impact fee calculations on Appendix B & C result in a zero-dollar impact fee total for this year but may be adjusted if needed per RCW 36.70A.130(2)(b) provision. 31 Page 342 of 465 KENT SCHOOL DISTRICT No. 415 SIX-YEAR FINANCE PLAN Secured Unsecured Impact SCHOOL FACILITIES * 2022 2023 2024 2025 2026 2027 2028 TOTAL Local&State State 2 or Local 3 Fees 5 Estimated Estimated PERMANENT FACILITIES No School Projects at this time. $0 TEMPORARY FACILITIES Additional portables 3-4 $0 OTHER N/A Totals $o $o $o $o $o $o $o $o $o $o $o " F = Funded U = Unfunded NOTES: 2 The District anticipates receiving some State Funding Construction Assistance for some projects. 3 Facility needs are pending review.Some of these projects may be funded with impact fees. 4 Cost of portables based on current cost and adjusted for inflation for future years. 5 Fees in this column are based on amount of fees collected to date and estimated fees on future units.

The primary changes from the June 2024 Plan are summarized here. Capacity changes continue to reflect fluctuations in class size ratio and program changes. Changes in portables or transitional capacity reflect use, lease or purchase,sale, surplus and/or movement between facilities. The District worked with Educational Data Solutions, LLC to update student generation factors. The updated rates are included in the body of the Plan. The District expects to receive some State Funding Assistance (formerly called "state matching funds") for projects in this Plan and tax credit factors are updated annually. Unfunded site and facility need will be reviewed in the future. The impact fees for 2025 calendar year will result in no collection of impact fees for both Single-Family and Multi-Family due to the capacity study completed in spring 2025. 34 Page 345 of 465 KENT SCHOOL DISTRICT FACTORS FOR ESTIMATED IMPACT FEE CALCULATIONS X - Appendices Changes to Impact Fee Calculation Factors Include: ITEM Grade FROM TO Increase/ Comments /Type Decrease Student Generation Factor Elem 0.229 0.222 -0.007 Single Family(SF) MS 0.087 0.092 0.005 SH 0.113 0.116 0.003 Total 0.429 0.430 0.001 Student Generation Factor Elem 0.109 0.075 -0.034 Multi-Family (MF) MS 0.037 0.030 -0.007 SH 0.054 0.032 -0.022 Total 0.200 0.137 -0.063 State Funding Assistance Ratios("State Match") 52.88% 54.31% 1.43% Per OSPI Website Area Cost Allowance $375.00 $375.00 0.000 Per OSPI Website Link Average Assessed Valuation (AV) SF $594,679 $657,970 63,291 King County AV-Average of Condominiums& Apts.

Discussion The Capital Facilities Element is one of the comprehensive plan elements required by the Washington State Growth Management Act(GMA) (RCW 36.70A). GMA requires the Capital Facilities element to identify existing facilities,forecast future needs,and outline how those needs will be financed. It must also include policies to reassess the land use element if funding falls short,ensuring consistency and concurrency between development and public infrastructure.Updates to the Capital Facilities Element includes text revisions to Pg.CFE-22.These updates are based on the adopted Capital Facilities Plans provided by the four school districts which serve the students of Auburn. Revisions to include updated projects and timelines,as well as the removal of the text"and the associated school impact fees." P/T No.6 Incorporate updates to Table 1 in the Housing Element into the City of Auburn Comprehensive Plan. Discussion Updates to the Housing Element consist of minor changes to the text located on Table 1 —Housing Need by Income and County.These updates include revisions to table headings and revisions to the total new net need from 892 to 832 and>100%-120%from 1,235 to 1,305 units.

P/T No.8 Remove the Core Plan as a supporting document to the City of Auburn Comprehensive Plan. Discussion The core plan is intended to provide an assessment of the current conditions and characteristics occurring within the City of Auburn. Prepared in 2015,this document provides needed context and analysis to support the goals and policies of the Comprehensive Plan.This document also functions as a separate interface between studies such as the Housing Needs Assessment, Economic Development Strategic Plan,and the Buildable Lands report. In the attempt to refine administrative processes,analyses are now directly integrated with the Comprehensive Plan rather that producing a separate interface document to then incorporate into the Comprehensive Plan.The Core Plan is not a required document described in RCW 36.70A and has not been updated as a part of the 2024 periodic update schedule. Page 5 of 11 Page 357 of 465 Staff Member: Clark Date: 10/3/2025 M No.1 (File No.CPA25-0005) Incorporate updates to the Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map. Discussion As a result of the periodic update to the Comprehensive Plan,23 parcels were incorrectly designated as Public/Quasi-Public Land Use.This neighborhood located off of I Street NE includes 23 residential structures with a zoning designation of R-2, Residential Low.Staff proposes CPA25-0005 to correct the land use designation to Residential Neighborhood Low.This change would allow conformance with the overlying zoning district and existing conditions of the neighborhood. FINDINGS OF FACT: Background Summary: 1. RCW 36.70A.130(Washington State Growth Management Act(GMA))provides for amendments to locally adopted GMA comprehensive plans. Except in limited circumstances as provided for in State law and City Code,comprehensive plan amendments shall be considered by the city legislative body no more frequently than once per year. 2. The City of Auburn processed eight(8) policy/text annual updates to be included with the Comprehensive Plan. Four(4)school district Capital Facilities Plans whose districts occur within the City of Auburn,the City of Auburn Capital Facilities Element, Housing Element, Housing Needs Assessment,and the removal of the City of Auburn Core Plan.These updates are proposed to be incorporated by reference in the current Capital Facilities Element,of the current Auburn Comprehensive Plan and are processed as Policy/Text(P/T)amendments and are captured by City File No.CPA25-0003&CPA25-0006. 3. The City of Auburn proposes one(1) Land Use Map Amendment to the City's Comprehensive Land Use Map(City File No.CPA25-0005). 4. The environmental review decision under the State Environmental Policy Act(SEPA)for the school district capital facilities plans were prepared separately by each school district acting as their own lead agency,as allowed by State law(State Environmental Policy Act(SEPA)). 5. The environmental review under the State Environmental Policy Act(SEPA)for the policy text amendments No.5-7,and map amendment No. 1.City-initiated policy/text amendments resulted in a Determination of Non-Significance(DNS)issued for the City-initiated Comprehensive Plan Amendments on August 11 (City File No.SEP25-0013). The comment period ended at 5:00 p.m. August 25',2025,and the appeal period ended at 5:00 p.m.September 9th,2025. No comments on the proposed text amendments were received. 6. The environmental review under the State Environmental Policy Act(SEPA)for P/T No.8.The City issued a DNS for P/T No.8 on September 22nd,2025(City File No.SEP25-0016).The comment period ended at 5:00 p.m.October 7th,2025. No comments on the proposed text amendments were received. Page 6 of 11 Page 358 of 465 Staff Member: Clark Date: 10/3/2025 7. As provided in the City code,the Comprehensive Plan amendments are reviewed during a public hearing process before the City of Auburn Planning Commission,who then provides a recommendation to the City Council for final action which generally occurs,but is not required to, prior to the end of the year. 8. Pursuant to RCW 36.70A.106,the proposed comprehensive plan amendments outlined in this staff report were sent to the Washington State Department of Commerce and other state agencies for the required state review.The Washington State Department of Commerce acknowledged receipt on July 25th,2025, by Submittal ID No.2025-S-9678(CPA25-0003)and on August 22nd,2025, by submittal ID No.2025-S-9780(CPA25-0006). No comments have been received from the Washington State Department of Commerce or other state agencies as of the writing of this report. A copy of the transmittal and acknowledgement is provided as No.2024-S-7564 and ID No.2024-S-7565 CONFORMANCE WITH THE CRITERIA FOR PLAN AMENDMENTS 1. The proposed change will further and be consistent with the goals and objectives of the plan and the plan will remain internally consistent. Discussion Proposed changes identified in P/T Nos. 1-8 and M No. 1 are intended to ensure alignment with the overarching goals and objectives of the Comprehensive Plan and maintain internal consistency across its elements. P/T No. 1-No.5 The acceptance of the School District's Capital Facilities Plans,along with revisions to the Capital Facilities Element,enables full integration of the district's growth and development targets. These updates also enhance coordination with the City's infrastructure planning to support future school sites and capital projects. P/T No.6—No.7 Revisions to the Housing Element and Housing Needs Assessment align the City's planning framework with residential development targets established for 2044.These updates address an error in the Housing Need by Income and County Tables and Figure of the Housing Element and Housing Needs Assessment ensuring Auburn's growth targets are correct within the tables. P/T No.8 The removal of the Core Plan as a reference document is recommended to prevent reliance on outdated or inaccurate information.Although its removal does not directly affect the Comprehensive Plan, it was not updated as part of the 2024 Periodic Update.However,the value statements of the Core Plan are still carried through the Comprehensive Plan updated in 2024. . M No. 1 Finally,the proposed amendment to the Comprehensive Land Use Map is necessary to bring a specific neighborhood into conformance with its designated zoning district.This change resolves existing inconsistencies between residential and public land uses, promoting clarity,and regulatory alignment. Page 7 of 11 Page 359 of 465 Staff Member: Clark Date: 10/3/2025 2. Whether the capacity to provide adequate services is diminished or increased. Discussion Proposed changes outlined in P/T Nos. 1-7 and M No. 1 identify key projects,goals,and policies aimed at enhancing and sustaining adequate public services throughout the City of Auburn. The Capital Facilities Plans submitted by the four school districts serving Auburn residents address the growing need for additional classrooms,service buildings,and educational facilities.These plans respond to projected population growth and are designed to maintain and improve the quality of educational services for Auburn's students. Updates to the Housing Needs Assessment and Housing Element incorporate regional affordable housing targets established by King and Pierce Counties.When paired with the City's Capital Facilities Element and Capital Facilities Plan,these revisions support a coordinated approach to planning and development, ensuring that public services keep pace with residential growth. The proposed amendment to the Comprehensive Land Use Map directly affects the types of services permitted within designated neighborhoods.The application of R-2 Residential Low and Residential Neighborhood Low zoning designations removes policy barriers to future development and enables continued public investment in alignment with residential land uses. P/T No.8 does not directly affect service capacity.The Core Plan, previously used as a reference document for integrating studies into the Comprehensive Plan, is no longer necessary.As relevant studies are now appended directly to the Comprehensive Plan,a separate interface document is redundant and may be retired without impacting coordination of public services. 3. Assumptions upon which the comprehensive plan is based are found to be invalid. Discussion As a result of updates to the Capital Facilities Plans(P/T Nos. 1-4),the information contained in the City's Capital Facilities Element,specifically the"Public Institutions"section(P/T No.5) no longer reflected current conditions. Revisions to the Capital Facilities Element were necessary to restore internal consistency and ensure alignment with present-day infrastructure planning. P/T Nos.6 and 7 address inaccuracies within in the Housing Need by Income and County table and figure Correcting these figures enables the City to more accurately plan for and deliver services and facilities that support affordable housing development, in accordance with regional growth targets and the planning policies of King and Pierce Counties. P/T No.8 proposes the removal of the Core Plan as a reference document within the Comprehensive Plan. This recommendation stems from the consolidation of outdated information that no longer supports the City's adopted goals and policies.The Core Plan was not updated during the 2024 Periodic Update and retaining it as a reference, risks distorting future planning efforts by embedding obsolete data into the Comprehensive Plan. Page 8 of 11 Page 360 of 465 Staff Member: Clark Date: 10/3/2025 M No. 1 corrects a mapping error that misclassified 23 parcels containing single-unit detached homes as Public/Quasi-Public,thereby conflicting with the underlying R-2 Residential Low zoning designation.The proposed amendment restores the appropriate land use designation of Residential Neighborhood Two, bringing the map into conformance with existing conditions and ensuring consistency with the Comprehensive Plan's goals and policies. 4. A determination of change or lack of change in conditions or circumstances has occurred since the adoption of the latest amendment to the specific section of the comprehensive plan that dictates the need for a proposed amendment. Discussion All proposed amendments reflect a clear determination of change in conditions or circumstances since the last update to the relevant sections of the Comprehensive Plan. P/T Nos. 1-4 propose updates to the Capital Facilities Plans submitted by the four school districts serving Auburn residents. • Auburn School District anticipates continued growth and expansion of educational services. • Dieringer School District seeks reconfiguration to address social constraints and the need for permanent facilities. • Federal Way Public Schools is evaluating future residential demand driven by the Federal Way Town Center and Link Light Rail expansion. • Kent School District is responding to declining enrollment and evolving student needs. P/T No.5 addresses direct changes to project timelines and completion status and revises administrative language to guide future annual amendments to school district Capital Facilities Plans. P/T Nos.6-7 revise affordable housing allocations in accordance with Vision 2050 and Countywide Planning Policies.These updates ensure the City remains compliant with regional housing targets and accurately reflects growth projections in the Housing Element and Housing Needs Assessment. P/T No.8 recommends removal of the Core Plan,an advisory document that was not updated during the 2024 Periodic Update and therefore contains outdated information. M No. 1 corrects a mapping error that misclassified 23 parcels containing single unit detached homes as Public/Quasi-Public.The proposed re-designation to Residential Neighborhood Two restores consistency with the R-2 Residential Low zoning district and supports the preservation of neighborhood character and permitted land uses. 5. If applicable,a determination that a question of consistency exists between the comprehensive plan and Chapter 36.70A RC W, the countywide planning policies for either King and/or Pierce County, as appropriate,and Vision 2050. Discussion Among the proposed amendments, P/T Nos.6-7 are the only text revisions that directly address policy consistency between the City of Auburn's Comprehensive Plan and the legislative frameworks Page 9 of 11 Page 361 of 465 Staff Member: Clark Date: 10/3/2025 established by the King and Pierce Countywide Planning Policies and Vision 2050.Specifically, updates to Table 1 of the Housing Element and Figure 34 of the Housing Needs Assessment currently misrepresent the total affordable housing allotment required to meet regional housing needs through 2044.These amendments correct that discrepancy and ensure alignment with adopted regional growth strategies. In contrast, P/T Nos. 1-5,8,and M No. 1 do not resolve direct inconsistencies with regional planning policies.Instead,these amendments focus on correcting internal documentation,updating public service provisions,and improving alignment with existing conditions and administrative processes within the City's planning framework. 6. If the request is to change the land use designation of a specific property on the comprehensive land use map, the applicant must demonstrate one of the following: a. The current land use designation was clearly made in error or due to an oversight; b. The proposed land use designation is adjacent to property having a similar or compatible designation, or other conditions are present to ensure compatibility with surrounding properties; c. There has been a change in conditions since the current land use designation came into effect. Discussion M No. 1 represents the sole amendment to the Comprehensive Land Use Map and addresses a mapping error introduced during the periodic update process.The proposed correction redesignates 23 parcels from Public/Quasi-Public to Residential Neighborhood Two,restoring consistency with the existing R-2 Residential Low zoning and the established character of the neighborhood. This amendment is not based on a change in external conditions since the adoption of the current designation. Rather, it corrects a mis-designation that conflicts with both the zoning district and permitted land uses.The proposes designation aligns with the existing zoning,character of the neighborhood,and with the goals and policies of the Comprehensive Plan. Procedural Steps: 7. The proposed text amendment(zoning code update)has been discussed with the Planning Commission previously at a special meeting on September 16,2025. 8. Pursuant to Revised Code of Washington(RCW)36.70A,the text and map amendments were transmitted to the Washington State Department of Commerce on July 25th,2025 and August 22"d 2025.The 60-day notice period ended on October 21st,2025. 9.

Background for Motion: Background Summary: Title 19 "Impact Fees" of the Auburn City Code (ACC) contains standards and regulations pertaining to the collection of impact fees in the City of Auburn. Impact fees are authorized by State law. Specifically, Chapter 19.02 ACC addresses the establishment, calculation, collection, and amendment of School Impact Fees within the municipal boundaries of the City of Auburn. The City originally established School Impact Fees in 1998 by Ordinance No. 5078. Portions of four School Districts occur within the City limits. Pursuant to Section 19.02.060 of the ACC, on at least an annual basis, the Auburn City Council shall review the information submitted by the School Districts pursuant to ACC 19.02.050. The review shall be in conjunction with any update of the Capital Facilities Element of the City's Comprehensive Plan. The City Council may also at this time determine if an adjustment to the amount of the impact fees is necessary. The City of Auburn Annual Comprehensive Plan Amendment process for 2025 included requests for City approval of the Capital Facilities Plans of the four districts as follows: • 2025 - 2031 Auburn School District Capital Facilities Plan; • 2025 - 2031 Dieringer School District Capital Facilities Plan; • 2026 Federal Way Public Schools Capital Facilities Plan; and • 2024 - 2025 through 2030 - 2031 Kent School District Capital Facilities Plan. Page 371 of 465 These requests were submitted in accordance with the provisions of ACC 19.02.050. The School Districts' Capital Facilities Plans are contained in the packet for the 2025 Annual Comprehensive Plan Amendments, distributed to the City Council prior to the November 24, 2025, Study Session under a separate Ordinance, Ordinance No. 6990. Definition ACC 19.02.020(N) provides the following definition: "Impact fee"means a payment of money imposed upon development as a condition of development approval to pay for school facilities needed to serve new growth and development that is reasonably related to the new development that creates additional demand and need for public facilities that is a proportionate share of the cost of the school facilities, and that is used for such facilities that reasonably benefit the new development. Related Authority Other relevant findings include: • Chapter 82.02 of the Revised Code of Washington (RCW) and Washington Administrative Code (WAC) 365-196-850 authorize cities, towns, and counties planning under the Growth Management Act (GMA) to impose impact fees. • ACC 19.02.030(D) "The impact fee shall be based on a Capital Facilities Plan adopted by the School District and incorporated by reference by the City as part of the Capital Facilities Element of the City's Comprehensive Plan, adopted pursuant to Chapter 36.70A RCW, for the purpose of establishing the fee program." • ACC 19.02.030(E) "Separate fees shall be calculated for single family and multifamily types of dwelling units, and separate student generation rates must be determined by the School District for each type of dwelling unit." • ACC 19.02.030(F) "The fee shall be calculated on a district-wide basis using the appropriate factors and data supplied by the district. The fee calculations shall also be made on a district- wide basis to assure maximum utilization of all available school facilities in the School District which meeting level of service standards." • As a condition of the City's authorization and adoption of a school impact fee ordinance and codified in ACC 19.02.040, the City and the applicable School District shall enter into an interlocal agreement governing the operation of the school impact fee program and describing the relationship and liabilities of the parties. The agreement must provide that the district shall hold the City harmless for all damages. • ACC 19.02.050 "On an annual basis (by July 1st or on a date agreed to by the district and the City and stipulated in the interlocal agreement), any District for which the City is collecting impact fees shall submit the Capital Facilities Plan and supporting information to the City." • ACC 19.02.070(D) "The City will impose an application fee, as provided for in the City's adopted fee schedule, per dwelling unit which is subject to and not otherwise exempt from this chapter to cover the reasonable cost of administration of the impact fee program. The fee is not refundable and is collected from the applicant of the development activity permit at the time of permit issuance." • The impact fee calculation shall be based upon the formula set forth in ACC 19.02.110, "Impact fee formula". The formula is the City's determination of the appropriate proportionate share of the costs of public-school capital facilities needed to serve new growth and development to be funded by school impact fees based on the factors defined in ACC 19.02.020. Based on this formula, the "Fee Obligation" is the "Total Unfunded Need" x 50% = Page 372 of 465 Fee Calculation. The Capital Facilities Plans that were approved by each of the School Boards contain proposed School Impact Fees for each of the School Districts. The requests for adjustment of the School Impact Fees are required to be submitted concurrent with the submittal of the Capital Facilities Plans. Under City regulations, a separate letter request is only required to be submitted to the City when the fee adjustment is requesting an increase. Staff Recommendation Staff finds the Auburn, Dieringer, Federal Way, and Kent School Districts provided Capital Facilities Plans supporting their requests to amend the school impact fees by meeting all requirements listed in ACC 19.02.050 and referenced in Ordinance No. 6990. Auburn School District The Auburn School District requests to modify, as indicated by letter proposed impact fees for the 2026 year submitted with the District's Capital Facilities Plan, set forth in Exhibit A. The Auburn School District requests an increase to School Impact Fees relating to single-family dwelling units. The proposed fee for a single-family dwelling unit is $8,003.00, an increase of $3,419.00, and the proposed fee for a multifamily dwelling unit is $8,966.00, which remained the same as the prior year. Dieringer School District The Dieringer School District requests to modify, as indicated by the letter proposed impact fees for 2026 submitted with the District's Capital Facilities Plan, set forth in Exhibit B. The Dieringer School District requests an increase in fees for both single-family and multifamily dwelling units. The proposed fee for a single family dwelling unit is $7,333.00, an increase of $2,788.00 and the fee for a multifamily dwelling unit is proposed to be $4,545.00, an increase of $2,135.00. Historically, the City has established fee rates for the Dieringer School District that are consistent with Pierce County's maximum fee obligation since they are more appropriate and consistent with the public's interest in mitigating school impacts within the affected portion of the City. Dieringer School District's fee calculations do not exceed the maximum fee obligation set by Pierce County Code (PCC) 4A.30.030. PCC 4A.30.030 identifies a maximum impact fee obligation for a single-family dwelling unit of $8,054.00, and for a multifamily dwelling unit of $4,545.00. The Dieringer School District is the only school district common to both the jurisdictions of the City of Auburn and Pierce County. Federal Way Public Schools The Federal Way Public School District indicated by letter submitted with their Capital Facilities Plan proposed impact fees for the 2026 year as set forth in Exhibit C. Federal Way Public Schools requests to retain the 2025 $0.00 impact fee for single-family and multifamily dwelling units. Federal Way Public Schools requested to not adopt School Impact Fees for 2026 based on revised student generation rates, and capacity and enrollment projections. Kent School District The Kent School District indicated by letter submitted with their Capital Facilities Plan proposed impact fees for the 2026 year as set forth in Exhibit D. The Kent School District requests to retain the 2025 $0.00 impact fee for single-family and multifamily dwelling units for 2026. The District notes in the Capital Facilities Plan impact fees are not proposed in 2026 based on revised student generation rates, and capacity and enrollment projections. Council Review and Adoption Page 373 of 465 The establishment of the actual fee amount occurs through separate Council action to amend Chapter 19.02 ACC. ACC 19.02.060 specifies the following: "On at least an annual basis, the city council shall review the information submitted by the district pursuant to ACC 19.02.050. The review shall be in conjunction with any update of the capital facilities plan element of the city's comprehensive plan. The city council may also at this time determine if an adjustment to the amount of the impact fees is necessary; provided that any school impact fee adjustment that would increase the school impact fee shall require the submittal of a written request for the adjustment by the applicable school district concurrent with the submittal of the annual capital facilities plan pursuant to ACC 19.02.050. In making its decision to adjust impact fees, the city council will take into consideration the quality and completeness of the information provided in the applicable school district capital facilities plan and may decide to enact a fee less than the amount supported by the capital facilities plan." This Section provides the Auburn City Council is not obligated to accept the fees proposed by the School Districts within their submitted Capital Facilities Plans and may establish fees that the Council determines are more appropriate and consistent with the public's interest in mitigating school impacts within the affected portion of the City. Sections 19.02.115 Dieringer School District (Exhibit B), 19.02.120 Auburn School District (Exhibit A), 19.02.130 Kent School District (Exhibit D), and 19.02.140 Federal Way Public Schools (Exhibit C) of the Auburn City Code are amended to reflect the updated school impact fees determined by the submitted fee matrices provided by each school district serving the City of Auburn, as set forth in Exhibit E.

During the past year,the District experienced an increase in the construction cost for a new middle school and an increase in single-family and multi-family Student Generation Factors.This contributed to an increase in the impact fee for single-family residences from$4,584 to$8,003. It also contributed to an increase in the impact fee for multi-family residences. Based on an application of King County Code 21A and its associated formula,the District's impact fee for multi-family residences in 2025 would increase from $8,966 to$14,408.The District has reduced this fee by$5,442 to match the multi-family fee collected in 2024.This discretionary reduction was made to establish a more stable impact fee that is generated by multi-family developments. Please let me know if you or others have questions or would like to meet with me to review our fees and the 2025—2031 Capital Facilities Plan. The 2025—2031 Capital Facilities Plan will be submitted for adoption by the Auburn School District Board of Directors on June 9, 2025.

To process the Annual Amendment the City requires submission of the following items: 1. Adopted or draft Capital Facilities Plan 2. SEPA Determination and Environmental Checklist 3. Matrix of the adopted fee calculations 4. A memo to council to increase, decrease or retain the school impact fees. Providing the required information is appreciated as early as possible to avoid issues in incorporating materials into the Annual Comprehensive Plan Package (June/July 2025). If the Capital Facilities Plan has not yet been adopted by the school board, a draft version is sufficient for acceptance. Please provide the estimated date for the school boards adoption of the Capital Facilities Plan and I will reach out for the Final Adopted Plans to insert into the Annual Amendment Package. Thank you for your assistance in this process. I will provide periodic updates as the project moves forward and dates of Planning Commission meetings. CODE QUESTIONS?

Page 399 of 465 CITY OF J\IJBURJ4 AGENDA BILL APPROVAL FORM WASHINGGTTON Agenda Subject: Meeting Date: Ordinance No. 7010 (Martinson) (15 Minutes) November 24, 2025 An Ordinance affirming that Councilmembers and the Deputy Mayor are eligible for optional participation in the Public Employees' Retirement System (PERS) and authorizing payment of the required employer contribution for those who elect membership Department: Attachments: Budget Impact: Human Resources and Risk Ordinance No. 7010, Auburn Management PERS Elected Officials Handout Administrative Recommendation: For discussion only. Background for Motion: Background Summary: The City Council is being asked to consider an Ordinance affirming that Councilmembers and the Deputy Mayor are eligible for optional participation in the Public Employees' Retirement System (PERS) under RCW 41 .40.023(3)(a). Elected officials are not mandatory members of PERS but may enroll if they meet the Department of Retirement Systems (DRS) monthly compensation threshold. Auburn's stipends—$1,800 per month for Councilmembers and $2,400 for the Deputy Mayor— exceed the 2025 eligibility threshold of $1,465.20, allowing participating officials to earn one full month of PERS service credit for each month served. This credit counts toward the five-year vesting requirement and future pension benefits under PERS Plan 2. Because the City already participates in PERS and the Mayor is already a mandatory member, the Ordinance provides clarity for legislative officials and authorizes the City to remit required employer contributions for those who voluntarily elect membership. The estimated employer cost for retroactive contributions back to the start of current Council terms is approximately $11,700 (principal only). The maximum potential exposure, if a long-tenured member purchases all eligible prior service back to 2014, is approximately $18,367. Ongoing annual employer costs beginning in 2025 are approximately $1,205 per participating Councilmember, $1,607 for the Deputy Mayor, or about $8,800 annually if all seven enroll. Adopting this Ordinance ensures administrative clarity, supports compliance with DRS reporting requirements, and does not raise Council compensation or constitute a mid-term salary adjustment.

Section 3. Administrative Authorization.

SECTION 8 PARLIAMENTARY PROCEDURES AND MOTIONS 8.1 Unless specifically provided in these rules, all City Council meeting discussions shall be governed by ROBERTS RULES OF ORDER, NEWLY REVISED (latest edition). 8.2 If a motion does not receive a second, it dies. Matters that do not constitute a motion (and for which no second is needed) include nominations, withdrawal of motion by the person making the motion, request for a roll call vote, and point of order or privilege. 8.3 A motion that receives a tie vote fails. The Mayor, as Presiding Official, shall be allowed to vote to break a tie vote, except where prohibited by law. Page 14 Page 443 of 465 8.4 Motions shall be stated in the affirmative. For example, "I move to approve" as opposed to "I move to reject." Councilmembers shall be clear and concise and not include arguments for the motion within the motion. 8.5 After a motion has been made and seconded, the Councilmembers may discuss their opinions on the issue prior to the vote. A motion and second is not an indication by a Councilmember that they support the action. The motion and second enables discussion and debate in advance of a formal vote. 8.6 If any Councilmember wishes to abstain from a vote on a motion that Councilmember shall so advise the City Council, shall remove and absent themselves from the deliberations and considerations of the motion, and shall have no further participation in the matter. The Councilmember should make this determination before any discussion or participation on the subject matter or as soon thereafter as the Councilmember identifies a need to abstain. A Councilmember may confer with the City Attorney to determine whether the Councilmember is required to abstain. 8.7 A motion to table is non-debatable and shall preclude all amendments or debates of the issue under consideration. A motion to table effectively removes the item without a time certain. A motion to table to a time certain will be considered a motion to postpone as identified in Section 8.8. To remove an item from the table requires a two-thirds' majority vote. 8.8 A motion to postpone to a certain time is debatable, is amendable and may be reconsidered at the same meeting. The question being postponed must be considered at a later time at the same meeting, or at a time certain at a future Regular or Special City Council meeting. To remove an item from postponement in advance of the time certain requires a two-thirds' majority vote. 8.9 A motion to postpone indefinitely is debatable, is not amendable, and may be reconsidered at the same meeting only if it received an affirmative vote. 8.10 A motion to call for the question shall close debate on the main motion and is not debatable. This motion must receive a second and fails without a two-thirds' vote; debate is reopened if the motion fails. 8.11 A motion to amend is defined as amending a motion that is on the floor and has been seconded, by inserting or adding, striking out, striking out and inserting, or substituting. 8.12 Motions that cannot be amended include motions to adjourn, lay on the table (table), roll call vote, point of order, reconsideration, and take from the table. 8.13 A point of order can be raised by any member of the governing body. A member of the governing body can appeal the Chair's ruling. An appeal must be immediate and must be seconded. The Chair will then explain the ruling. The members of the Page 15 Page 444 of 465 governing body can debate the matter, each member may speak once. The members of the governing body will then make a decision on the appeal by a majority vote. 8.14 Amendments are voted on first, then the main motion as amended (if the amendment received an affirmative vote). 8.15 Debate of the motion only occurs after the motion has been moved and seconded. 8.16 The presiding officer, City Attorney, or City Clerk should repeat the motion prior to voting. 8.17 When a question has been decided, any Councilmember who voted with the prevailing side may move for reconsideration at the same, or the next meeting. In order to afford Councilmembers who voted with the prevailing side the potential basis for a motion for reconsideration, Councilmembers who voted with the prevailing side may inquire of Councilmembers who voted with the minority as to the reasons for their minority vote, if not stated during debate prior to the vote. A motion for reconsideration is debatable if the motion being reconsidered was debatable. If the motion being reconsidered was not debatable, the motion for reconsideration is not debatable. 8.18 The City Attorney shall act as the Council's parliamentarian and shall advise the Presiding Officer on all questions of interpretations of these rules which may arise at a Council meeting. 8.19 These rules may be amended, or new rules adopted, by a majority vote of the full Council.

Additionally, before a Councilmember discusses anything that does or could relate to City liability, the Councilmember should talk to the City Attorney or the City'o Riolt Mfa-nagor, co that the Councilmember would have a better understanding of what may be said or how the discussion should go to control or minimize the City's liability rich and expose ire 17.1 If a Councilmember speaks at a meeting, event, or with any individual, organization, or agency—especially those with ties to the City—they must state the Council's majority position, if known. If expressing a personal opinion that differs, they must clarify that they are speaking as an individual and not on behalf of the Council. Before discussing matters that may involve City liability, the Councilmember should first consult with the City Attorney or Risk Manager to help minimize legal risks. 17.2 Councilmembers need to have other Councilmember's concurrence before representing another Councilmember's view or position with the media, another government agency, or community organization. 17.3 Councilmembers shall not knowingly communicate with an opposing party or with an opposing attorney in connection with any pending or threatened litigation in which the City is a party or in connection with any disputed claim involving the City without the prior approval of the City Attorney, unless the Councilmember is individually a party to the litigation or is involved in the disputed claim separate from the Councilmember's role as a City official. 17.4 Communication among Councilmembers shall conform to the following parameters: Page 31 Page 460 of 465 A. Except in connection with Councilmembers meeting, informally, in committees not subject to the Open Public Meetings Act, to assure that communication on agenda items occurs to the greatest extent possible at the public meetings, and to avoid even the perception that email is being used in a way that could constitute a public meeting, successive communications on Council topics that involve a quorum of the Councilmembers shall not occur. Councilmembers shall refrain from emailing Councilmembers about such agenda items. Councilmembers should be prepared to communicate about matters that are on upcoming Council agendas at the public meetings. If Councilmembers wish to share information with other Councilmembers about matters that are on upcoming agendas, the Councilmembers should forward that information to the Mayor for distribution in the Council meeting packets. B. Councilmembers may communicate via email to other Councilmembers, including to a quorum of the full Council about matters within the scope of the Council's authority or related to City business, but not yet scheduled on upcoming Council agendas, to indicate a desire that certain items be included on upcoming meeting agendas; provided that Councilmembers shall never ask for responses from the other Councilmembers in that communication.

Council email correspondence and all electronic communications shall utilize the designated city email account or city device with no exceptions and within the parameters of the Open Public Meetings Act and the Public Records Act. 17.6 Council Relations with City Boards and Commissions. A. Council Liaisons. In addition to where a Councilmember is appointed by the Council or the Mayor to serve as a member of a board, commission, committee, task force, or any other advisory body, the City Council may, on Page 32 Page 461 of 465 limited occasions or under unusual circumstances, appoint a Councilmember to serve as a non-member Liaison to a board, commission, committee, task force, or any other advisory body. Anytime a Councilmember is appointed as such a Liaison, the position or role of Liaison is subordinate to that of Councilmember, and the Councilmember's responsibility is first and foremost to the City and to the Council. The role and responsibility of the Councilmember-Liaison is to keep the City Council apprised of the activities, positions, and actions of the entity or organization to which the Councilmember has been appointed Liaison, and not to communicate to the board, commission, committee, task force, or other advisory body a statement as the position of the City Council, except as authorized or directed by the Council. Insofar as a Councilmember-Liaison position does not give all Councilmembers equal access to the activities, functions, and information of or about a board, commission, committee, task force or any other advisory body, appointments to Council Liaison positions should be reserved to those instances where a Report to the Council by the board, commission, committee, task force, or any other advisory body would not be convenient or practical. B. Reports to the Council. Each board, commission, committee, task force, or any other advisory body of the City shall be requested to present a report to the City Council at a Regular Meeting or a Study Session of the City Council, as scheduled by the Mayor or Deputy Mayor . Such reports shall be scheduled for a Regular Council Meeting or a Council Study Session and shall be delivered by the Chair of the board, commission, committee, task force, or any other advisory body or designee. The reports shall inform the City Council of the activities, functions and information with which the board, commission, committee, task force, or any other advisory body has been involved since the previous report and shall include the opportunity for questions by Councilmembers. 17.7 Whenever a member of the City Council attends any meeting of any other entity or organization, he or she should endeavor to be prudent in what he or she says or does at such meeting. Further, the Councilmember should avoid attending such meeting if that attendance would impose an interference with the meeting or the operations of the other entity or organization, or of the operations of the City. Council Attendance. If a Councilmember commits to attend an event, all effort shall be made to attend the event, given potential city funds expended and community expectations of attendance. If an emergency arises where the Councilmember cannot attend, the Councilmember shall send notice to CouncilAlerts(@,Auburnwa.aov as soon as practicable. SECTION 18 TRAVEL AUTHORIZATION Page 33 Page 462 of 465 18.1 Value of Council Travel. The Auburn City Council recognizes the need of its members to attend conferences, trainings, and meetings to broaden their knowledge of and familiarity with a diverse collection of City-related issues, including, but not limited to, Public Works, Communications, Transportation, Economic Development, Public Safety, and Energy. These conferences also provide valuable opportunities to network with other elected City officials. Comparing Auburn's specific issues with those of other cities often provides the Council with established policies already in place in other cities that can be adapted to meet the specific needs of the City of Auburn, as well as expediently and efficiently acquainting Auburn City Councilmembers with ideas of how to address Auburn issues and solve Auburn problems. 18.2 Annual Budget Amounts for Council Travel. To accommodate Council travel, the Auburn City Council shall allocate an identified amount of money each year in the City budget process to each Councilmember for City-related travel costs, including transportation, lodging, meals, and registration costs. 18.3 Adjustment of Council Travel Allocations. If a Councilmember needs more than the amount of travel related funds allocated for their use, the Councilmember shall (1) see if there are unused funds available from any other Councilmember(s) who are willing to transfer funds from their account to the Councilmember needing additional travel funds. If so, with the consent of the Deputy Mayor and the other transferring Councilmember(s), funds will be transferred to the requesting Councilmember's allotment. The request including approval from the Councilmember willing to transfer funds and the consent of the Deputy Mayor must be sent to the Council Administrative Assistant prior to the funds being expended or (2) shall request a net adjustment to the budget adding additional funds to their allotment, which adjustment shall be approved by a majority of the whole Council. 18.4 Receipts and Travel Documentation. Each Councilmember shall be responsible for providing to the Mayor or Finance Director, within ten (10) business days of returning from City travel, any and all City travel related receipts and documentation, and a written report regarding the authorized travel the Councilmember attended. All documentation shall also be sent via email to the CouncilAlerts(c�auburnwa.gov email address. Quarterly reports of the travel costs incurred by each Councilmember shall be provided by the Finance Department. Any sums overpaid to any Councilmember shall be reimbursed to the City, or automatically deducted from that Councilmember's next payroll, upon reasonable notice from the Council Administrative Assistant. 18.4 Page 34 Page 463 of 465 SECTION 19 CONFIDENTIALITY 19.1 Councilmembers shall keep confidential all written materials and verbal information provided to them during Executive or Closed Sessions and as provided in RCW 42.23.070, to ensure that the City's position is not compromised. Confidentiality also includes information provided to Councilmembers outside of Executive Sessions when the information is considered by the exempt from disclosure under exemptions set forth in the Revised Code of Washington. SECTION 20 ENFORCEMENT OF RULES OF PROCEDURE 20.1 Councilmembers shall conform their conduct to the requirements, standards and expectations set forth in these Rules of Procedure. In addition to and notwithstanding whatever other enforcement mechanisms may exist for legal, ethical or practical obligations on Councilmember performance or conduct, violations of these Rules of Procedure by Councilmembers may be enforced by action of the City Council through sanctions such as votes of censure or letters of reprimand, and such other action as may be permitted by law. SECTION 21 COMMUNITY COMMITMENT 21.1 The Auburn City Council acknowledges our role as city leaders to champion a community that fosters a Racially Equitable, Diverse, and Inclusive culture.
