VOLUNTARY CONTRIBUT[ON AGREEMENT
This Voluntary Contribution Agreement ("Agreement") is entered into this ~_~day of
-2016 by and between the City of Auburn, Washington, a municipal corporation
("City") and Resource Transition Consultants, LLC as Receiver for Jovita Heights Development,
LLC, ("Developer").
WHEREAS, Developer is the owner of the Jovita Heights (AKA Vista Pointe)
subdivision ("Subdivision") set forth in Exhibit A attached hereto and incorporated by reference;
and
WHEREAS, Developer recognizes there will be a direct impact on existing park
recreation, and open space facilities as a result of development of the Subdivision and that the
Subdivision will directly contribute to the need for new facilities and/or the need for additions to
existing facilities; and
WHEREAS, the City of Auburn Hearings Examiner's decision on the Subdivision
included the following condition and finding:
Condition 4. Prior to final plat approval, the Applicant shall enter into an agreement with
the City to provide a fee in lieu of parkland dedication. The format of the agreement
shall be acceptable to the City. The amount of the fee in lieu shall be based on the
formula indentified in Finding number 16. The fee shall be paid prior to Final Plat
approval. If the fee cannot be agreed upon, the Applicant shall provide the required park
dedication space within the plat.
Finding 16. The Applicant requested to pay fees in lieu of parkland dedication,
indicating that parkland within the plat would likely be a benefit only to residents of the
plat and neighbors in King County, due to lack of direct access to the plat from the City.
Recreational facilities in the vicinity of the proposed plat include GSA Park and the
Interurban Trail within the City of Auburn, and Five Mile Lake Park, Lake Geneva Park,
and the South County Ballfields in unincorporated King County (within Federal Way's
potential annexation area). As proposed, forty one percent of land within the proposed
plat would be permanently set aside as forested open space. Exhibit 3 July 19, 2004 Park
Modification Request. The City of Auburn agreed to accept payment of half of the
projected costs, or $130,297.49, in lieu of parkland dedication. This equals a per lot fee
of $1,217.73, based on the proposed 107 lots. Exhibit I, page 3, Testimony of Mr. Osaki.
WHEREAS, fee in lieu of parkland dedication amount is $1,217.73 per lot for a
total fee of $130,297.49.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual benefits and conditions set forth
below, the parties hereto agree as follows:
1. Developer has voluntarily elected to meet the applicable City park and recreation
land dedication requirements by entering into this agreement and shall provide a fee in lieu of
dedication equal to the amount of $130,297.49. Pursuant to the calculation formula summarized
in Finding No. 16 of City of Auburn Hearing Examiner's Decision which approved the
Preliminary Plat of Jovita Heights (a.k.a. Vista Pointe).
ORIGINAL
2. This Agreement contains the entire agreement between the parties, and no other
agreements, oral or otherwise, regarding the subject matter of this Agreement shall be deemed to
exist or bind either of the parties. Either party may request changes to the Agreement. Changes
which are mutually agreed upon shall be incorporated by written amendments to this Agreement.
3. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws
of the State of Washington. In the event any suit, arbitration or other proceeding is instituted to
enforce any term of this Agreement, the parties specifically understand and agree that venue shall
be exclusively in King County, Washington. The prevailing party in any such action shall be
entitled to its attorneys' fees and costs of suit, which shall be fixed by the judge hearing the case
and such fee shall be included in the judgment.
4. Any provision or part of this Agreement held to be void or unenforceable under
any law or regulation shall be deemed stricken and all remaining provisions shall continue to be
valid and binding upon the City and the Developer, who agree that the Agreement shall be
reformed to replace such stricken provision or part with a valid and enforceable provision that
comes as close as reasonably possible to expressing the intent of the stricken provision.
