Resolution No. 4762 (Heineman) A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Auburn, Washington, declaring certain City property as surplus, and authorizing the Mayor and City Clerk to execute agreements between the City of Auburn and the State of Washington for an exchange of property and for joint use and maintenance of property Referring to the Agreement to Exchange Real Property between the State of Washington, Green River Community College, and the City of Auburn, Member Wagner questioned the use of the term "equivalent co-owners" (the State and the City) of the newly created and relocated Lea Hill Park. Risk Manager Rob Roscoe explained that the State required that the State be designated as a co-owner of the park as a condition of the State grant funds that will be used to improve the park. The City and the State will be reflected on the title of the park property. Risk Manager Roscoe stated that the terms of the operation of the park are outlined in the joint use agreement. Member Wagner noted that the joint use agreement refers to ball fields use. Member Wagner questioned whether the State would have any rights for the remainder of the park. Risk Manager Roscoe stated that Green River Community College would be able to schedule use of the remainder of the park through the Auburn Parks, Arts and Recreation Department as is the case with other City-owned recreation facilities. It is anticipated that the College will have little use for the park. Member Wagner questioned whether the joint use agreement should be more specific about the rights of the parties. Chair Backus stated that Parks, Arts and Recreation Director Faber indicated that there would be little input from the State as to the use of the park. Mayor Lewis added that the City and the State had a similar relationship with Game Farm Park for several years. Vice Chair Norman moved and Member Wagner seconded to approve and forward Resolution No. 4762 to the full Council for approval. Page 2 of 6 CA.A MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY. 3-0. B. Resolution No. 4768 (Heid) A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Auburn, Washington, supporting Initiative 1183 concerning liquor: beer, wine, and spirits (hard liquor)Initiative Measure No. 1183 concerns liquor: beer, wine, and spirits (hard liquor).This measure would close state liquor stores and sell their assets; license private parties to sell and distribute spirits; set license fees based on sales; regulate licensees; and change regulation of wine distribution.Interested persons will be afforded an opportunity to express opposing views. Mayor Lewis stated that the proposed Resolution was brought forward to the Council in light of recent events, including the Governor's indication that the State would no longer share the sales and liquor excise taxes with local governments. Initiative 1183 would require that the amount of funds the cities currently receive from sales and liquor excise tax would continue. If 1183 fails, the City stands to lose approximately $900,000 annually in tax revenue. Vice Chair Norman moved and Member Wagner seconded to approve and forward Resolution No. 4768 to the full Council. MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY. 3-0. IV. DISCUSSION ITEMS A. Ordinance No. 6378 (Coleman) An Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Auburn, Washington, amending Ordinance No. 6339, the 2011-2012 Biennial Budget Ordinance as amended by Ordinance No. 6351, Ordinance No. 6352, Ordinance No. 6362 and Ordinance No. 6370 authorizing amendment to the City of Auburn 2011-2012 Budget as set forth in Schedule "A" Finance Director Coleman explained that Ordinance No. 6378 makes the final changes to the 2011 Budget. The amendment recognizes revenue and grant funding received and public employee pension contribution rate adjustments. Vice Chair Norman questioned whether reverting to utility billing every other month rather than monthly would realize cost savings. Finance Director Coleman estimated that the monthly billing process adds $50,000 over the cost of billing every two months. Member Wagner stated that he championed the change to monthly billing believing that the City would have fewer late paying customers. However, the change in the billing process has not changed the bill-paying practices of customers. Committee members agreed to discuss the proposal to revert utility billing to every two months at a future meeting. Page 3 of 6 CA.A B. Ordinance No. 6380 An Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Auburn, Washington, authorizing the levy of regular property taxes by the City of Auburn for collection in 2012 Finance Director Coleman stated that Ordinance No. 6380 sets the property tax levy for 2012. The levy includes a one percent increase over the 2011 levy and property taxes on new construction. The levy is based on a recent assessed valuation of $7.1 billion. The Ordinance will be discussed further at the budget work session on November 17, 2011. C. Resolution No. 4767 (Coleman) A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Auburn, Washington, authorizing the Mayor and the City Clerk to execute an Agreement for Services between the City of Auburn and the Auburn Area Chamber of Commerce to operate a visitor information center, promote tourism awareness within the City and to provide services associated with supporting the City's economic development efforts Auburn Area Chamber of Commerce President and Chief Operating Officer Nancy Wyatt and the Chamber's Tourism Coordinator Debbie Luce were present to answer any questions with regard to the Chamber's status report and accomplishments in 2011 related to the visitor information center, economic development, and tourism. The agreement for services is unchanged for 2012. D. Resolution No. 4682 (Dowdy) A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Auburn, Washington, Authorizing the Mayor to Execute an Interagency Agreement with King County for the Purpose of Constructing a Relocated King County Sanitary Sewer Line for the M Street Underpass Project (C201A) Public Works Director Dowdy stated that Resolution No. 4862 authorizes an agreement with King County for the relocation of the Metro sanitary sewer main for the M Street SE Underpass project. The relocation of the line is included in the design of the project construction. The agreement will obligate the City to construct the relocated sewer main and King County to pay for its relocation. The agreement is beneficial to the City as it will eliminate a separate contractor for the relocation work. E. Resolution No. 4763 (Hursh) A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Auburn, Washington, relating to the amendment of the 2009, 2010 and 2011 Annual Action Plan updates of the Consolidated Plan Community Services Manager Hursh stated the proposed amendment to the 2009, 2010 and 2011 Action Plans will re-allocate approximately $60,000 of unused Community Development Block Grant funds. Planned projects include Page 4 of 6 CA.A $50,000 for construction of Terry Home II and $10,000 for rehabilitation of City- owned transitional housing. F. Resolution No. 4764 (Hursh) A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Auburn, Washington, adopting the 2012 Community Development Block Grant Action Plan for the Consolidated Plan for years 2010 to 2014 Community Services Manager Hursh stated the preparation of an annual action plan is required by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) in order for the City to receive federal funds under the CDBG program. The City’s 2012 CDBG allocation is anticipated to be approximately $400,000. G. Resolution No. 4765 (Snyder) Memorandum of Agreement and Option Agreement with Ceradimm LLC Resolution No. 4765 would replace and supersede the Master Development Agreement approved by Resolution No. 4663. Recently, Alpert International LLLP combined its operations with Ceradimm, LLC so the execution of the Memorandum of Agreement and/or option to Purchase Real Property would occur with Ceradimm, LLC, of which Spencer Alpert is a member. Planning and Development Director Snyder stated that staff continue to work on additional language relating to right of first refusal, which will be included in the final form presented to the full Council at a future date. H. Resolution No. 4766 (Snyder) Exclusive Agency Listing Agreement with Jones Lang LaSalle Americas, Inc. Planning and Development Director Snyder explained that Jones Lang LaSalle will provide professional real estate brokerage services to assist the City in marketing and negotiating for lease or sale of City-owned properties for commercial and/or residential land uses. The Resolution will be presented to the full Council for approval at a future date. I. Resolution No. 4774 A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Auburn, Washington, declaring an emergency with respect to repair of the roof of the Mountain View Cemetery building structure at 2020 Mountain View Drive, Auburn, WA 98001 Risk Manager Roscoe reported that the cemetery building roof is leaking, and immediate repairs are needed to prevent further damage to the structure. Previous attempts to repair the roof have not been successful. The cost of the roof replacement is $42,000.

As you know, these services assist the City by supplementing its efforts with regard to Visitor/Tourism Information, the City's Economic Development Goals and Outreach to Current and Future Business Community Members in ways that leverage the credibility, experience and resources of the Chamber. While there is some overlap, I have organized this summary to encompass the general scope of services in the referenced contract, as follows: SERVE AS AUBURN’S VISITOR INFORMATION CENTER: Handle inquiries made by visitors, new residents and employees via phone, email, mail, walk-in and respond with the appropriate information and materials; Operate the City's storefront Visitor Information Center where visitors obtain materials and advice during normal business hours. The center will provide sufficient space, display racks, appropriate materials and receptionist. Consistent with the terms of the contract for services, the Chamber maintains and operates Auburn's Visitor Information Center where people know to seek out the Chamber as the first point of contact, whether a visitor or new resident, to obtain a wide variety of materials and advice. The Chamber-operated Visitor Information Center dominates the entire front portion of the Chamber’s Lobby, with easy visibility & access from the street. It includes large display racks stocked with varied and valuable visitor-related materials. RES.A 2 | Page The Visitor Information Center signage on the storefront is a large banner across the first three windows to loudly state “Visitor Information Center”; and with a larger window sign that boldly lists Auburn Tourism as one of the main components in our office and offers the universal “I” symbol denoting an information center is located here. With each walk-in, visitors and prospective businesses are able to take multiple pieces of information that the Chamber provides. It is often their first point of contact in our community. When we mail out relocation and/or vacation packets, a variety of information is sent, including information about the City of Auburn, parks & recreation, public art, the golf course, trails, etc., as well as Auburn businesses and visitor services. The valuable contribution the Chamber is uniquely able to provide in its contract with the City, is our ability to staff the Visitor Information Center with employees having extensive personal knowledge of the greater Auburn area, and a genuine desire to promote the City of Auburn. With the construction for the Division Street Promenade, we have seen a marked decrease in the amount of walk-ins, but we are pleased to know that those individuals and businesses that want to find us, have been able to. We are excitedly anticipating the opening of this new “jewel” for our community, which will create a more appealing entrance to our office. Produce and distribute the City business directory, community profile, street maps, and lists containing information about community resources and/or business services. Respond to requests from publishers seeking information about Auburn for their magazines, web pages and/or directories. Provide City hotels with brochures promoting local attractions, businesses and shops. The Auburn Area Chamber of Commerce produces a Community Directory each year in January and prints 5,000. All but 240 of the 2011 directories have been distributed. We will have the 2012 directories delivered to us in mid-January. We currently distribute these Community Directories to: City Hall Member advertisers for use with prospective and current customers and firms Auburn Library Muckleshoot Library Senior Center Parks & Rec Building Auburn Airport Local Hotels Small Business Assistance Center Green River Community College The SuperMall All event visitors that deal directly with our Tourism Marketing Coordinator RES.A 3 | Page New teachers (in conjunction with the New Teacher Breakfast hosted by the Chamber and the Auburn School District’s recruitment efforts); and We mail out the Community Directory in the Chamber's "Relocation/Tourism/Inquiry Packets" The Chamber’s Community Directory continues to receive a very strong response from the Auburn Business Community. We believe the desire of local businesses to advertise in the Community Directory is an affirmation of the effectiveness of the Chamber's Community Directory in presenting the strengths and assets of the Auburn area, and local businesses, to both current and prospective visitors. They see it as a primary resource for direct contact with their customers and clients. The Auburn Area Chamber of Commerce also produces a Local Area Map every two to three years. 10,000 of each edition are printed. Our map came out in June 2011 and of those 10,000 we have been able to distribute approximately 4,000 thus far. We currently distribute these Local Area Maps to: City Hall Member advertisers Auburn Library Muckleshoot Library Senior Center Parks & Rec Building Auburn Airport Local Hotels Small Business Assistance Center Green River Community College The SuperMall All event visitors that deal directly with our Tourism Marketing Coordinator New teachers (in conjunction with the New Teacher Breakfast hosted by the Chamber and the Auburn School District’s recruitment efforts); and We mail out the Local Area Map in the Chamber's "Relocation/Tourism/Inquiry Packets" RES.A 4 | Page PROVIDE SUPPORT AND SERVICE TO THE CITY'S ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT GOALS AND OUTREACH TO CURRENT AND FUTURE BUSINESS COMMUNITY MEMBERS.

Maintain and provide demographic information up to a 30-mile radius from the downtown area. Organize and conduct orientations for new employee groups as an incentive for businesses to locate in Auburn. Chamber leaders and the Chamber’s President & COO have been active participants on the all important Streets Task Force (twice); and took the lead on the Urban Core Task Force, a new 50-year visioning process for the downtown area and surrounding business community. The Chamber’s President & COO has greatly appreciated the opportunity to be called in as an active participate in significant recruitment and retention meetings, partnering with the City’s Economic Development Manager and the City’s Planning Director. The Chamber has furthered the partnership with the City’s Economic Development staff in co-sponsoring several events such as: Import/Export Forum; Business Development Classes, and more that are scheduled for the coming months. Chamber staff members have been active in giving “windshield tours” of the city to prospective businesses whenever requested. The Chamber participates, along with other chambers, with the Valley Cities Mayors' group to identify issues where it may forge and implement partnerships on issues critical to enhance economic vitality for Auburn, and the south-end region. The Chamber is also an integral founding partner on the South Sound Chambers of Commerce Legislative Coalition (SSCCLC) that puts forth issues to better our region’s economy. The Chamber just took on the added responsibility as being the Administrator for the SSCCLC. Chamber board members, especially executive committee members, have actively (proactively) been soliciting new businesses to move to Auburn. (Example: Ronnie Roberts with Gosanko Chocolate Art recruited U-Line to open a facility in Auburn.) RES.A 5 | Page PROVIDE A SERVICE TO PROMOTE TOURISM AWARENESS FOR THE CITY OF AUBURN.

Background Summary: Auburn City Code (ACC) 13.41 imposes a utility systems development charge (SDC) for the purpose of recovering a fair share of the costs of providing existing utility system infrastructure to serve new or redeveloped sites. The current SDC is calculated by the amount of new impervious surface constructed on a site without consideration to the stormwater management method used. The proposed revision to ACC 13.41 provides a reduction in the SDC if Low Impact Development (LID) techniques are used.

The city council has determined that it is reasonable and in the public interest to enact and impose a utility systemsdevelopment charge forthe purpose of recovering a fair share of the costsof providing existing utility system infrastructure to serve new customers or reviseduses of existing customers. The intent is to reimburse the city's utility for the cost of construction of availablecapacity sanitary sewer, water and storm drainage facilities from those properties, which as part of their development and use create direct or indirect needs for thosefacilities. The city councilfindsthat the public wouldbenefitfrom a logical long-range approach to the financingof necessarygeneral facilities. Experience has demonstrated that the lack of such provision casts an unfair and unexpected burden on taxpayers and residences in the form of utility rates, taxes, bond interest costs and assessments when core, general or central facilities becomeinadequate, causing a crisis. Operating from crisis to crisis is wasteful, unsafe and not an acceptable method of operating local government; and debt financing should be minimized wherever possible. (Ord. 6341 § 1, 2011; Ord. 5801 § 1, 2003; Ord. 4830 § 1, 1996; Ord. 4479 § 2, 1990; Ord. 3510 § 1, 1980.) 13.41.030 Utility systems development charge imposed—Rates—Review. A. A sanitary sewer and water utility systems development charge is imposed upon all lands inside the boundary of the city, and all lands outside theboundary of the city which utilize eithersanitary sewerfacilities or waterfacilities or both of the city, and a storm drainage utility systemsdevelopment charge is imposed upon all lands in the city, except those lands exempted under this chapter, which fees and charges shall be as setforth on the city of Auburn fee schedule. B. The utility systemsdevelopment charge as set forth in the city fee schedule will be computed to consider the future and/or current valueof the utilitysystem's fixed assets, excluding contributions by developers, and outstanding bonded indebtedness, and will also consider an appropriate service unit. C. Theutility systemsdevelopment charge imposed shall be reviewed annually by the city council and the charges may be revised to reflectchanges in utility asset value, depreciation of the utility system fixed assets, bonded indebtedness, and the number of ERU, RCE or ESU customers served. (Ord. 6341 § 1, 2011; Ord. 5819 §4, 2004; Ord. 5801 § 1, 2003; Ord. 5709 Ordinance No. 6391 November 7, 2011 Page 3 of 7 DI.A 1, 2002; Ord. 5619 § 2, 2001; Ord. 5125 § 2, 1998; Ord. 4830 § 1, 1996; Ord. 4479 § 2, 1990; Ord. 3510§ 1, 1980.) 13.41.040 Collection.

B. “Impervious surface,” for the purpose of calculating a system development charge and only as it pertains to this chapter, means a hard surface area that prevents the entry of water into the soil mantle. Common impervious surfaces include, but are not limited to, roof tops, walkways, patios, concrete or asphalt paving. Open, uncovered, retention/detention facilities shall not be considered as impervious surfaces for the purpose of SDC fee calculation. C. “Utility systems development charge” is a charge imposed on new customers, or existing customers revising use of their property, in recognition of the previous investment of the city and DI.A its customers in the utility systems. (Ord. 6341 § 1, 2011; Ord. 6283 § 2, 2009; Ord. 5801 § 1, 2003; Ord. 4830 § 1, 1996; Ord. 4479 § 2, 1990; Ord. 3510 § 2, 1980.) D. “Parcel, non-single-family” means any parcel of developed land other than single-family or two- family (duplex) residential E. “Low impact development (LID)” means a storm water management and land development strategy applied at the parcel and subdivision scale that emphasizes conservation and use of on- site natural features integrated with engineered, small-scale hydrologic controls to more closely mimic predevelopment hydrologic functions. Common LID designs include, but are not limit to, bioretention areas, vegetated rooftops, porous asphalt pavement and porous concrete as designed in accordance with the City of Auburn Surface Water Management Manual and 2005 Low Impact Technical Guidance Manual for Puget Sound published by the Puget Sound Action Team or most recent update. 13.41.020 Purpose. The city council has determined that it is reasonable and in the public interest to enact and impose a utility systems development charge for the purpose of recovering a fair share of the costs of providing existing utility system infrastructure to serve new customers or revised uses of existing customers. The intent is to reimburse the city’s utility for the cost of construction of available capacity sanitary sewer, water and storm drainage facilities from those properties, which as part of their development and use create direct or indirect needs for those facilities. The city council finds that the public would benefit from a logical long-range approach to the financing of necessary general facilities. Experience has demonstrated that the lack of such provision casts an unfair and unexpected burden on taxpayers and residences in the form of utility rates, taxes, bond interest costs and assessments when core, general or central facilities become inadequate, causing a crisis. Operating from crisis to crisis is wasteful, unsafe and not an acceptable method of operating local government; and debt financing should be minimized wherever possible. (Ord. 6341 § 1, 2011; Ord. 5801 § 1, 2003; Ord. 4830 § 1, 1996; Ord. 4479 § 2, 1990; Ord. 3510 § 1, 1980.) 13.41.030 Utility systems development charge imposed – Rates – Review. A. A sanitary sewer and water utility systems development charge is imposed upon all lands inside the boundary of the city, and all lands outside the boundary of the city which utilize either sanitary sewer facilities or water facilities or both of the city, and a storm drainage utility systems development charge is imposed upon all lands in the city, except those lands exempted under this chapter, which fees and charges shall be as set forth on the city of Auburn fee schedule. B. The utility systems development charge as set forth in the city fee schedule will be computed to consider the future and/or current value of the utility system’s fixed assets, excluding DI.A contributions by developers, and outstanding bonded indebtedness, and will also consider an appropriate service unit. C. The utility systems development charge imposed shall be reviewed annually by the city council and the charges may be revised to reflect changes in utility asset value, depreciation of the utility system fixed assets, bonded indebtedness, and the number of ERU, RCE or ESU customers served. (Ord. 6341 § 1, 2011; Ord. 5819 § 4, 2004; Ord. 5801 § 1, 2003; Ord. 5709 § 1, 2002; Ord. 5619 § 2, 2001; Ord. 5125 § 2, 1998; Ord. 4830 § 1, 1996; Ord. 4479 § 2, 1990; Ord. 3510 § 1, 1980.) 13.41.040 Collection.

A. This Chapterestablishes standards and criteria for the developmentof a Master Plan. Theprovisions of thisChapter are voluntary and incentive-based. B. Themaster plan is intended to establish conditions with which all concurrent and subsequent land use approvalsimplementing the master plan shall comply. The master plan processprovides long term guidance for a large area so that the continuity of theoverall development is maintained. Theprocess allows for development to occur in phases wherecoordination of public facilities is needed, when a master plan is needed to determine howbest to develop the area, or when a master plan is needed to integrate various uses. C. Use of a Master Plan is intended torecognizethevaluable role played by public facilities such as educational and religious institutions as well as large scale commercial development providing the community withneededservices. Ordinance No. 6385 November 3, 2011 Page 4 of 12 DI.B D. This Chapter provides thevehicle for large-scale, multi-phased developments by obtaining conceptual approval of several projects at one time and coordinating future provisions of infrastructure capacity. It allows the Cityto plan for the extension/expansionof public infrastructure in a timely and efficient manner. E. The processes in this Chapter provide opportunities for adjacent propertyowners, homeownerassociations, and businesses to evaluate the cumulative impacts associated withthe full build outof large scale public facilities and commercial developments. Theyallow for public input on the design and development standards of theseprojectstominimize impacts to adjacent properties and protect the character of the surrounding areas. They also ensure that large scale public facilities and commercial developments are compatible with community character and values. 18.53.020 Applicability. A.

Commercial or mixed-use projects on properties 10 acres or greater where the applicant plans a phased development over several years may apply for a master plan. C. Property includedwithinthe master plan shall be under the same ownership or a signed agreement must establish controlover multiple ownerships. D. Amaster plan application may be combined with other applications such as a rezoneor preliminary plat. 18.53.030 Approval Process and Effects of Approved Master Plan. A. The initial approval of a master plan shall be a Type III Decision as provided for in ACCSection 14.03.030. B. The master plan can be approved for a maximum ten years with a review by the City at year five. At yearfive, theCitywill review thefollowing: 1. Whether thephasing established under the original master plan still meets the needs of the applicant. 2. Whether traffic substantially changed within the first fiveyears of the master plan to an extentthat would warrant additionalreview and mitigation. C. No laterthan six monthsprior to the end of thefifth year in the master plan, the applicant shall conduct a neighborhoodreview meeting pursuant to ACC 18.02.130. D. The master plan, including any approvedextension, vests as to the uses and standards contained in the master plan for the period of approval except for development regulations related to public health and safetyissues, including but not limited to building codes, firecodes, mechanical codes, Ordinance No. 6385 November 3, 2011 Page 5 of 12 DI.B plumbing codes, electrical codes, and property maintenance codes, which shall vest upon theCity's acceptance of a completedpermitapplication for each specific permit. TheCity reserves the authority to impose new or different officially adoptedregulations if, andto the extent required by, a serious threat to the public health and safety, as determined by theCity. The City alsoreserves the authority to impose new or different officially adoptedregulations, if federal or state laws require new or different standards. E.

Budget Impact: N/A Administrative Recommendation: Planning Commission to hold a public hearing on the proposed Master Plan Code Amendment and make a recommendation to City Council. Background Summary: Since the annexation of the Lea Hill area in January 2008, the City has been discussing a master plan concept that would be applicable to institutional uses such as a community college and potentially larger scale commercial uses. This conversation has continued with the Planning and Community Development Committee (PCDC) further refining the concept of a master plan process. Initial policy direction was provided by the PCDC to staff. A draft code amendment creating a master plan process was brought before the Planning Commission for discussion at the August 2, 2011 meeting. The amendment outlines the master plan process, applicability, length of the master plan approval, decision criteria, and an incentive based approach. The September 7, 2011 Planning Commission meeting will involve a public hearing on the proposed code amendments for the creation of a new zoning code chapter related a master plans. The Planning Commission is advisory to the City Council and will make a recommendation to the City Council on the proposed code amendment.

The public hearing notice was published on August 25, 2011 in the Seattle Times at least 10-days prior to the Planning Commission public hearing scheduled for September 7, 2011. 10. The following conclusions support the proposed amendments to Title 18, Zoning, creating a new zoning code chapter related to Master Plans scheduled for the Planning Commission’s September 7, 2011 public hearing with a staff recommendation. B. Conclusions 1. Pursuant to Auburn City Code (ACC) Section 18.68.030 and 18.68.040, the following public process is applicable: 18.68.030 Public hearing process DI.B Agenda Subject: Proposed amendments to Auburn City Code related to Master Plans (ZOA11-0005) Date: August 30, 2011 Page 3 of 5 A. Text Amendments. With the exception of purely administrative or procedural amendments, the planning commission shall conduct at least one public hearing on all amendments to this title. The planning commission shall make a recommendation to the city council who may or may not conduct a public hearing. 18.68.040 Public hearing notice requirements A. Text Amendments. 1. Planning Commission. For text amendments that require a public hearing under ACC 18.68.030(A), notice of a public hearing shall be given by publication, in a newspaper of general circulation in the area, at least 10 days prior to the public hearing and by posting the notice in three general public locations. 2. City Council. Notice of a public hearing shall be given by publication, in a newspaper of general circulation in the area, prior to the public hearing and by posting the notice in three general public locations. Comment: The public hearing before the Planning Commission is scheduled for September 7, 2011 meeting the requirement under ACC 18.68.030. The public hearing notice was published in the Seattle Times, the City’s official newspaper, on August 25, 2011 at least 10 days prior to the public hearing. The public hearing notice was also posted at City Hall (25 West Main Street), the Customer Service Center (One East Main Street), and on the City’s website meeting the requirement for posting the notice in three general public locations. 2. Auburn City Code Chapter 18.68, Amendments, does not have specific decision criteria for text amendments to the zoning title. At a minimum, proposed text amendments are to be consistent with the City’s Comprehensive Plan pursuant to RCW 36.70A.040. The proposed code amendment is supported by the following Comprehensive Plan Objectives and Policies: Objective 1.2 – To establish a procedure to assess the growth impacts of major development proposals. Comment: The proposed master plan code amendment implements this objective by creating a process that looks at large scale institutional and commercial developments holistically to assess the growth impacts of these types of developments. The intent of the master plan code is to provide long term guidance for a large scale development, provides the opportunity to evaluate the impacts of all phases of the a large scale development at one time while allowing an applicant to obtain approval for multi-phases at one time, and provides the opportunity for early public involvement. A master plan process allows the City to evaluate the growth impacts related to traffic, utilities, and other services for a large scale development early in the process and assists in future capital facility planning as well. Policy GP-17: Flexible land development techniques including, but not limited to, clustering and planned unit developments for the development of residential, DI.B Agenda Subject: Proposed amendments to Auburn City Code related to Master Plans (ZOA11-0005) Date: August 30, 2011 Page 4 of 5 commercial, and industrial properties shall be considered to implement this comprehensive plan. Comment: The proposed master plan process is a flexible development technique by allowing an applicant to gain approvals of a multi-phased project at one time rather than approvals at each phase. By developing a master plan for a large scale /multi-phased development, the City is able to analyze the impacts upfront to transportation and utility infrastructure while the applicant obtains certainty for their proposal. The proposed code amendment establishes a master plan approval timeframe of ten years with potential for a five year extension. This timeframe vests a development proposal to the standards in place at project approval for all phases rather than having the potential of development regulations changing over time impacting subsequent phases of a project unless state or federal mandates change beyond the City’s control that require modifications to the master plan. Built into the proposed text amendment are incentives if an applicant chooses to go through a master plan process. An applicant may achieve more density or additional stories if certain development features are incorporated such as low impact development. Policy LU-5: Link together regionally significant land uses such as the SuperMall, Green River Community College, Boeing, Emerald Downs, and commercial uses on Auburn Way in a manner that enhances the regional stature of Auburn… Comment: The proposed master plan process would be applicable to institutional uses on sites with a minimum of 5 acres, such as Green River Community College, and for commercial uses on sites with a minimum of 10 acres, such as the SuperMall. The master plan process could be useful for institutional uses that need to plan out capital investments over a long period of time as well as larger scale commercial sites that could redevelop in the future. Planning out future improvements/developments over a ten year timeframe allows for a holistic review of the development and how the project could link with significant regional uses within the City. Policy EN-17A: Encourage the use of low impact development techniques in public and private development proposals in order to minimize impervious surfaces and improve water quality. Comment: The proposed code amendment includes an incentive table that allows an applicant to increase density and/or floor area (e.g. additional stories) and increased lot coverage than what is permitted in the underlying zone if low impact development is incorporated into the project.

Background Summary: On March 10, 2010, the City Council passed Ordinance 6297 approving the rezone of three adjacent parcels (Parcel Nos. 1221049041, 1221049042 and 1221409043) located just north of 15th Street NW, and just to the east of State Route 167 in the City of Auburn from C3, Heavy Commercial, to BP, Business Park. Condition No. 4 of the Ordinance specified the following: "The general location of the proposed building to be developed on the subject site shall be consistent with the conceptual site plan dated February 5, 2010. The total area of any proposed building shall be limited to 95,000 square feet. The proposed storm drainage facility may increase depending on the outcome of the final site plan review which could impact location of parking spaces and will be reviewed as part of the final site plan review process. The project shall comply with the retail space requirements of Condition 2(B)(1) of Auburn Ordinance No. 5607 The City of Auburn has received a development application for an industrial laundry facility at the subject site that would have a first floor building square footage of 102,822 square feet and a total building square footage of 145,927 square feet. On May 18, 2011, the Planning Director determined that an institutional laundry service would be consistent with janitorial services and is an allowed use in the zone if the application shows compliance with all other provisions of Ordinance 6297 and that for purposes of this rezone, building area would be calculated based on first floor square footage. The proposed development exceeds the allowable building square footage by a total of 7,927 square feet or eight (8) percent. Condition 11 of the Ordinance states the following: If changes to the language of the rezone are required such proposed changes shall be reviewed by the Planning and Community Development Committee of the City Council or its successor.

Background Summary: When Vision 2040 was adopted by the Puget Sound Regional Council General Assembly in May 2008, there were provisions for the four counties to update their Countywide Planning Policies (CPP) to be consistent with the Multi-County Planning Policies identified in Vision 2040. Pierce County began that work, through the Growth Management Coordinating Committee (GMCC), towards the end of 2009 and has continued that work through March 2011. The GMCC is a staff level committee representing each jurisdiction in Pierce County that makes recommendations, related to growth management, to the Pierce County Regional Council (PCRC). The GMCC has been working on proposed changes to the CPPs to be consistent with Vision 2040 has made their recommendation to the PCRC. The PCRC has been reviewing the CPP amendments and has made their recommendation to the Pierce County Council for ratification. The Pierce County Council approved Ordinance No. 2011-34s on July 19, 2011 and has sent the amended Pierce County CPPs for ratification to the cities and towns. The amendments to the CPPs become effective when 60 percent of the jurisdictions in Pierce County representing 75 percent of the total population adopt the amendments.

TO BE UPDATED DI.D Introduction I. INTRODUCTION A. Background and Statutory Framework In response to legislative findings that uncoordinated and unplanned growth together with a lack of common goals toward land conservation pose a threatto the environment,to the public health, safety and welfare,and to sustainable economic development,the State legislature enacted the Growth Management Act.' The Act identifies 4 14 planning goals which are intended to be used e3 for the purpose of guiding the development and adoption of comprehensive plans and development regulations of municipalities and counties required to plan? The categories in which goals have been propounded are: urban growth,sprawl reduction,transportation,housing, economic development,property rights,permits,natural resource industries,open space and recreation,shoreline,environment,citizen participation and coordination,publicfacilities and services,and historic preservation. -- . -•.. . . -- _ • . - -• • • - The Act specifies mandatory3 and optional4 planelements as follows: Mandatory Elements Optional Elements land use conservation housing solar energy capital facilities recreation utilities economic development* rural(County only) historic preservation* transportation any other relating to the physical development of the jurisdiction In addition,subarea plans are permitted. 5 RCW Chapter 36.70A(1990). 2 RCW 36.70A.020(1)-(4-3[14). 3 RCW 36.70A.070. 4 RCW 36.70A.080(1). 5 RCW 36.70A.080(2). RCW 36.70.070(9): these optional elementsbecome mandatory if state funding is provided. Ratification Date 1 DI.D Introduction One of the most important planning tenetsexpressed in the Growth Management Act is the consistency requirement,which takes many forms as follows: consistency of municipal/County plans with the planning goals identified in RCW 36.70A.020 internal consistency between plan elements consistency of all otherplan elements with the future land use map consistency of any subarea plans with the comprehensive plan consistency of the transportation element with the land use element consistency of the transportation element with the six-year plans required by RCW 35.77.010 for cities,RCW 36.81.121 for counties,and RCW 35.58.2795 for public transportation systems consistency between the County Comprehensive Plan and the comprehensive plans of all municipalities within the County consistency of comprehensive plans of each municipality and county with comprehensive plans of neighboring municipalities and counties with common borders or faced with related regional issues consistency of developmentregulations with the comprehensive plan consistency of capital budget decisions with the comprehensive plan consistency with the PugetSound Regional Council's(PSRC)Multicounty Planning Policies(MPPs)as required by RCW 36.70A.210(7) consistency of state agency actions in relation to the location, financing and expansion of transportation systems and other publicfacilities with county and municipal comprehensive planning Despite the factthat the word "consistency" is used repeatedly in the Growth Management Act, it is not defined. The Standard Planning Enabling Act promulgatedin 1928 by the United States Department of Commerce established the conceptthat zoning regulations should be "in accordance with a comprehensive plan." In the 64 yearssince the modelact was developed this concept has evolved from being merely advisoryor guiding to one that mandates that the goals,objectives, policies,and strategies of each document must be inagreement with and harmonious with the provisions of all other required documents. The consistency doctrine has been continually strengthened by both state statutes and bycourt decisions in both,`consistency statute states' and those states adopting the conceptby increasinglyvigorous interpretation of the"in accordance with" statutory language. Ratification Date 2 DI.D Introduction A second planning tenet which the Growth Management Act promotes is concurrency--i.e.,that concept that public facilities and services necessary to serve new development atadopted level of service standards are actually available at the time of development. The concurrencyrequirement is stated generally in the planning goals6 as follows: Ensure that those publicfacilities and services necessary to supportdevelopment shall be adequate to serve the development at the time the development is available for occupancy and use without decreasing current service levels below locally established minimum standards. In the transportation element,which is a requiredplan element for all municipal and County comprehensive plans,the concurrency requirement is restated in more forceful terms as follows:7 local jurisdictions must adopt and enforce ordinances which prohibit development approval if the development causes the level of service on a transportation facility to decline below the standardsadopted in the transportation element of the comprehensive plan, unless transportation improvements or strategies to accommodate the impacts of development are made concurrent with the development. These strategies may include increased public transportation service, ride sharingprograms,demand management,and other transportation systems management strategies;the importance of considering multimodal transportationimprovements is set forth in RCW 36.70A.108. Concurrent with the development means that for non-transportation facilities, improvements or strategies are in place at the time of development and in the case of transportation facilities,that a financial commitment is in place to complete the improvements or strategies within six(6)years. Portions of the mandatory planning,consistency,and concurrency requirements combine to suggest a strong relationship between the accommodation of growth and the provision and financing of public facilities and services tomeet facility and service demands generated by that growth. This relationship is thenstrengthened by the Urban Growth Area boundary designation and public facility requirements.8 In order to accomplish these new planning and plan implementation requirements,the legislature has expressly authorized the use of innovative techniques,9 including impact fees.10 6 RCW 36.70A.020(12). RCW 36.70A.070(6)(b). 8 RCW 36.70A.110. 9 RCW 36.70A.090. 10 RCW 82.02.050-.090. Ratification Date 3 DI.D Introduction In 1991,the State legislature amended the Growth Management Act,inter alia,torequirethat the legislative body of the County adopt countywide planning policies,in cooperation with the municipalities in the County. Countywide planning policies are written policy statements establishing a countywideframework from which county and municipal comprehensive plans are developed and adopted. The framework is intendedto ensure that municipal and County comprehensive plans are consistent." The development of the countywide planning policies was is intended to be a collaborative process between the County and the municipalities. The legislation required the Countylegislative body to convene a meeting with representatives of each municipality. The County and the municipalities then determine the process in by which they will agree to allprovisions and procedures of the countywide planning policies including`,but not limited to,desired planningpolicies,deadlines,and ratification. No later than July 1, 1992,tThe legislative authority of the County is required to adopt countywide planning policies in accordance with the agreed-upon process after holding therequisite public hearing or hearings.12 The Countywide PlanningPolicies are not substitutes for comprehensive plans but,rather goals, objectives,policies,and strategies to guide the production of the County and municipal comprehensive plans. The Countywide Planning Policies shall,at a minimum,address the following:13 a) Policies to implement RCW 36.70A.110; b) Policies for promotion of contiguous and orderly development and provision of urbanservices to such development; c) Policies for siting public capital facilities of a countywideor statewide nature; d) Policies for countywide transportation facilities and strategies; e) Policies thatconsider the need for affordable housing, such as housing for all economic segments of the population and parameters for its distribution; I) Policies for joint County and city planning within urban growth areas; g) Policies for countywide economicdevelopment and employment;and RCW 36.70A.210(1). 12 RCW 36.70A.210(2). 3 RCW 36.70A.210(3)(a)-(h).

Framework Agreement for the Adoption of the Countywide Planning Policies Pursuant to the Growth Management Act,Pierce County and the municipalities haveentered into an Interlocal Agreement for the development,and adoption, and amendment of the Countywide PlanningPolicies(CPPs).14 The Agreementprovides for the establishment of a Steering Committee consisting of one elected official from Pierce County andone elected official from every municipality in the County. The principalresponsibility of drafting the Countywide Planning Policies was given to the Steering Committee.15 The Steering Committee is now the Pierce County Regional Council(PCRC)and receivesd technical/staff support from the Growth Management Coordinating Committee(GMCC)'and the Transportation Coordinating Committee(TCC). e Strategies. Ratification of and amendments to the Countywide Planning Policies requires the affirmative vote of 60%of the affected governments in Pierce County representing a minimum of 75%of the total Pierce County population as designated by the State Office of Financial Management at the time of the proposed ratification. C. - -.- . - -- `- .. - - Countywide PlanningPolicies Countywide planning policies are policy documents that have both a procedural and a substantive effect on the comprehensive plans of cities and the county. The immediate purpose of the CPPs is to achieve consistency between and among the plans of cities and the county on regional matters. A long-term purpose of the CPPs is to facilitate the transformation of local governance in urban growth areas so that cities become the primary providers of urban governmental services and counties becomethe providers of regional and rural services and the makers of regional policies. Poulsbo, 92-3-0009c,FDO,at 23.] [Also,Snoqualmie, 92-3-0004c,FDO,at 9.] Another purpose is to facilitate urban growth at urban densities. The Countywide Planning Policies are intended to provide the guiding goals,objectives,policies and strategies for the subsequent adoption of comprehensive plans,but are not to be a substitute for such plans.

The framework is intended to ensure that municipal and County comprehensive plans are consistent.18 While the Growth Management Act does not specify the legal effect of adoption of the Countywide PlanningPolicies, it clearly acknowledges their importance by providing that failure to adopt Countywide PlanningPolicies meeting the requirements mayresultin the imposition of sanctions19 including, but not limited to the withholding of state revenues and rescinding the County 18 RCW 36.70A.210(1). 19 RCW 36.70A.210(5). Ratification Date 7 DI.D Introduction or municipality's authority to collect the real estate excise tax.20 Cities and the Governor may appeal adopted Countywide PlanningPolicies to the appropriate Growth Planning Hearings Board within sixty(60)days of the adoption of the policy.21 After the60-dayperiod,Countywide Planning Policies cannot be directly challenged. However,tThe effectiveness of the Countywide PlanningPolicies is not based merely on the fact that they are adopted, but rather on the fact that they must be adhered to and implemented inthe County and municipality comprehensive plans and development regulations. The legislation provides a process to challenge the failure of a County or municipality to comply with the Countywide PlanningPolicies through petition to the Growth Planing ManagementHearings Board.22 The Growth Planning Management Hearings Board shall hear and determine only those petitions alleging either: (a)that the State,countyor municipality is not in compliance with the Growth Management Act;or(b)that the 20-year growth management planning population projections adopted by the State Office of Financial Management should be adjusted.23 Petitions must be filed within sixty(60)days after publication of the ordinance adopting the comprehensive plan or development regulations. 24 Comprehensive plans and developmentregulations and amendments thereto are presumed valid upon adoption 25 The Pierce County Countywide Planning Policies(CPPs)must be consistent with the PugetSound Regional Council's(PSRC) Multicounty Planning Policies(MPPs). The most recent set of these is set forth in PSRC's VISION 2040, which specifically requiresthat the Pierce County Countywide Planning Policies be updated, where necessary, byDecember 31, 2010, to address the MPPs in VISION 2040. The Countywide Planning Policies should also be updated to addresschanges in the Growth Management Act language and interpretation that have taken place since the original adoption of the Countywide PlanningPolicies in 1995. The 2009 update to those provisions of th e Washington Administrative Code that provide guidance for implementation of the Growth Management Act should be of assistance in identifying Growth Management Act changesand requirements. It should also be noted that Federal agencies and Indian tribesmay participate in and cooperate with the countywide planning policy adoption process and that adopted countywide planning policies must be adhered to by state agencies.

Ratification Date 8 DI.D Introduction VISION 2040 VISION 2040 is the long-range growth management,environmental,economic,and transportation strategy for the central Puget Sound region adopted in April 2008by the PSRCGeneral Assembly. VISION 2040 promotes an environmentally friendly growth pattern that will contain the expansion of urban growth areas,conserve farm and forest lands, support compact communities where people nay both live and work,and envisions that a significant share of new employment and housing will occur in vibrant urban centers. VISION 2040 promotes the theme of"people,prosperity,planet"as a sustainability framework. TheRegional Growth Strategy set forth in VISION 2040 providesspecific guidance for the - distribution of futurepopulation and employmentgrowth through the year 2040 into types of places defined as"regional geographies." The Regional Growth Strategy reflects a substantial shift in future growth patterns for many jurisdictions and implementation will be challenging. Jurisdictions in some regional geographies will likely be planning for targets that are above or below the policy direction set by the Regional Growth Strategy because they are on a front-or back-loaded growth trajectory toward 2040. In other regional geographies, recent growth has been atsuch significant odds with the policy direction set by the Regional Growth Strategy(such as recent growth in unincorporated urban Pierce County from 2000 to2007 has already accounted for more than half of the 40-year growth allocation), that the 2040goal will likely not be met. In such cases,jurisdictions are asked to set growth targets as close to VISION 2040 as reasonably in an effort to"bend the trend"of future growth to more closelyconform to the Regional Growth Strategy,' Multicounty Planning Policies(MPPs) VISION 2040 includes a set of multicounty planning policies that provide an integrated framework for addressing land use,economicdevelopment,transportation, publicfacilities, and environmental issues. Multicounty planning policies are adopted by two or more counties and establish a common regionwide framework that ensures consistencyamong county and city comprehensive plans adopted pursuant to RCW 36.70A.070,and countywide planning policies adopted pursuantto RCW 36.70A.210. Multicounty planning policies provide a framework for regional plans developed within a - - multicounty region, including regionaltransportation plans establishedunder RCW 47.80.023,as well as plans of cities, counties,and others that have common borders or related regional issues as required under RCW 36.70A.100. The regional transportation planning organization,pursuant to RCW 47.80.020, should be the agency to develop,adopt, and administer multicountyplanning policies. Multicounty planning policies address,at a minimum,the same topics identified for countywide planning as identified in RCW 36.70A.210(3),except for those responsibilities assigned exclusively to counties. Ratification Date 9 DI.D Introduction In order to provide an on-going region-wide framework,a schedule for reviewing and revising the multicounty planning policies may be established.

COUNTYWIDEPLANNING POLICIES(CPPs) PREAMBLETO COUNTYWIDE PLANNING POLICIES Countywide Planning Policies are written policy statements which are to be used solely for establishing a Countywideframeworkfrom which the County and municipal comprehensive plans are developed and adopted. The framework is intended to ensure that the County and municipal comprehensive plans are consistent, as required by the Washington statutes. RCW 43.17.250 Countywide Planning Policy Incentives requires State agencies that provide funding to review local proposals for consistency with any adopted countywideplanning policies. State agencies will review local proposals to determine if they are addressed by a Countywide Planning Policy and accord additional preference to the County, city, or town if such Countywide Planning Policy exists. The County, and many of the municipalities within the County, typically address specific proposals within their local comprehensive plans and capital facilities plans. These locally adopted plans serve to supplement and refine the more generalized policies contained within the Countywide PlanningPolicies. Therefore, this document, as well as any locally adopted comprehensive plan and/or capital facilities plan, shall be considered by State agenciesin making determinations under RCW 43.17.250. Ratification Date 12 DI.D Affordable Housing COUNTYWIDEPLANNING POLICY ON THE "NEED FOR AFFORDABLE HOUSING FOR ALL ECONOMIC SEGMENTS OF THE POPULATION AND PARAMETERS FOR ITS DISTRIBUTION" Background-Requirement of Growth Management Act The Washington State Growth Management Act mandates identifies as a planning goal to guidc the thatcounties and cities encourage the availability of affordable housing to all economic segments of the population, promote a variety of residential densities and housingtypes,and encourage preservation of the existing housing stock. [RCW 36.70A.020(4)] The term "affordable housing" is not defined,but the context in which it appearssuggests that its meaning was intended to be broadly construed to refer tohousing of varying costs,sincethe reference is to all economic segments of the community. The Washington State Growth Management Act requires the adoption of countywide planning policies for affordable housinginorder to establish a consistent county-wide framework from which county and city comprehensive plans are developed and adopted. These policies are required to,at a minimum,"consider the need for affordable housing, such as housing for all economic segments of the population and parameters for its distribution" [RCW 36.70A.210(3)(e)]. TheWashington State Growth Management Act also identifies mandatory and optional plan elements. [RCW 36.70A.070 and .080]. A Housing Element is a mandatory plan element that must,at a minimum, include the following [RCW 36.70A.070(2)]: a) an inventory and analysis of existing and projectedhousing needs that identifies the number of housing units necessary to manage projected growth; b) a statement of goals,policies and objectives,and mandatory provisions for the preservation, improvement and development of housing, including single-family residences; c) identification of sufficient land for housing, including,but not limited to,government- assisted housing,housing for low income families, manufacturedhousing,multi-family housing,group homes,and foster care facilities; d) adequate provisions for existing and projected housing needs of all economic segments of the community. Since the Comprehensive Plan of every city and county must be an internally consistentdocument RCW 36.70A.070]and all plan elements must be consistent with the future land use map prepared as part of the required land use element[RCW 36.70A.070],these other plan elements will,to a great extent,dictate what will be in the housing element. Thus,the land use element,relying upon estimates of futurepopulation,growth,average numbers of persons per household,and land use densities,will indicate how much(and where)land needs to be made available toaccommodate the identified housing needs. Thecapital facilities,transportation Ratification Date 13 DI.D Affordable Housing and utilities elements will then indicatewhen and how publicfacilities will be provided to accommodatethe projectedhousing,by type,density and location. VISION 2040 Multicounty Planning Policies(MPPs) VISION 2040recognizesthat to meetthe demands of a growing and changing population in the central PugetSound, the region needs to develop vibrant communities that offer a diverse and well-distributed mix of homes affordable to both owners and renters in every demographic and income group. VISION 2040 encourages housing production that will meet our needs and places a major emphasis providing residences that are safe and healthy, attractive, and closeto jobs, shopping, and otheramenities. The Multicounty PlanningPolicies address I) housing diversity and affordability, 2)jobs-housing balance, and 3) best practices for home construction. These Multicounty PlanningPolicies place an emphasis on preserving and expanding housing affordability, incorporating quality and environmentally responsible design in homebuilding, and offering healthy and safe home choices for all the region's residents. Countywide Planning Policy AH-1. The County,and each municipality in the County, shall determine the extent of the need for housing for all economic segments of the population,both existing and projected for its jurisdiction over the planning period. AH-2. The County,and each municipality in the County,should explore and identify opportunities to reutilize and redevelop existing parcels where rehabilitation of the buildings is not cost-effective,provided the same is consistent with the countywide policy on historic,archaeological, and cultural preservation. AH-3. The County, andeach municipality in the County, shall encourage the availability of housing affordable to all economic segments of the population for each jurisdiction. 3.1 For the purpose of the Pierce County Countywide PlanningPolicies the following definitions shall apply: 3.1.1 "Affordable housing"shall mean the housing affordable to households earning up to 80 percent of the countywide medianincome. 3.1.2 "Low income households"shall mean households earning 80 percent or less of the countywide median income. 3.1.3 "Moderate income households"shall mean households earning 80 to 120 percent of the countywide median income. 3.1.4 "SpecialNeeds Housing"shall mean supportive housing opportunities for populations with specialized requirements, such as the physically and mentally disabled,the elderly, people with medical conditions,the homeless, victims of domestic violence, foster youth, refugees, and others. Ratification Date 14 DI.D Affordable Housing 3.2 Affordable housing needs not typically met by the private housing market should beaddressed through a morecoordinated countywide approach/strategy. 3.2.1 Each jurisdiction may adopt plans and policies for meetingits affordable and moderate income housing needs in a manner thatreflects its unique demographic characteristics, comprehensive plan vision and policies, development and infrastructure capacity, location and proximity to job centers, local workforce, and access to transportation. 3.3 It shall be the goal of each jurisdiction in Pierce County that a minimum of 25% of the growth populationallocation is satisfied through affordable housing. 3.3.1 Jurisdictions with designated regional centers should consider incorporating affordable housing allocations as part of their adopted allocations for these centers. 3.4 Each jurisdiction should provide a sufficient supply of special needs housing opportunities that is equitably and rationally distributed throughout the County. AH-4. The County andeach municipality in the County should establish a countywide programby an organization capable of long-term consistent coordination of regional housing planning,design,development,funding,and housing management. All jurisdictions should be represented in directing the work program and priorities of the organization. AH-5. Jurisdictions shouldplan to meet their affordable and moderate-income housing needs goal by utilizing a range of strategies that will result in the preservation of existing, and production of new, affordable and moderate-incomehousing that is safe and healthy. 5.1 Techniques topreserve existing affordable and moderate-income housing stock may includerepair, maintenance, and/or rehabilitation and redevelopment in order toextend the useful life of existingaffordable housing units. 5.1.1 Jurisdictions should seek and secure state funds such as the Housing Trust Fund, and federal subsidy funds such as Community Development Block Grant, HOME Investment Partnership, and other sources toimplement housingpreservationprograms. 5.2 Jurisdictions should promote the use of reasonable measuresand innovative techniques(e.g., clustering, accessory dwelling units, cottage housing, small lots,planned urban developments,and mixed use)to stimulate new higher- density affordable and moderate-income housing stock on residentially-zoned vacant and underutilized parcels. Ratification Date 15 DI.D Affordable Housing 5.3 To promote affordable housing and ensure access to services and jobs, jurisdictions should consider the availability and proximity of public transportation, governmental and commercial services necessary to support residents' needs. 5.4 Jurisdictions should consider providing incentives to developers and builders of affordable housing for moderate-and low-income households, such as but not limited to: 5.4.1 A menu of alternative development regulations(e.g. higher density, reduced lot width/areaand reduced parking stalls) in exchange for housing that is ensured to be affordable. 5.4.2 Atoolkit of financial incentives(e.g., permit and fee waiversor multi- family tax exemptions)and grant writing assistance,through the regional housing organization, that may be dependent on the amount of affordable housing proposed. 5.4.3 A toolkit of technical assistance(e.g., mapping, expedited processing and permit approval)toaffordable housing developers thatmay be dependent on the amount of affordable housing proposed. 5.5 Jurisdictions should consider inclusionary zoning measures as a condition of major rezones and development. 5.5.1 New fully contained communities in unincorporated Pierce County shall contain a mix of dwelling unitsto provide for the affordable and moderate-income housing needs that will be created as a result of the development, as well as helping to accommodate a share of the county's overallaffordable housing need as expressed in policy 3.3.

Ratification Date 17 DI.D Agricultural Lands COUNTYWIDEPLANNING POLICY ON AGRICULTURAL LANDS Background-Requirements of Growth Management Act TheWashington State Growth Management Act identifies themaintenance and enhancement of natural resource-based industries, including productive agricultural industries,and the conservation of productive agricultural lands as planning goals to guide the development and adoption of comprehensive plans and development regulations. [RCW 36.70A.020(8)]. While the expression of planning goals in the Growth Management Act is linked to "natural resource industries," including productive timber and fisheries,a separate policy for Agricultural Lands has been proposed developed because of their uniqueimportance in Pierce County and their relationship to urban growth area boundaries and policies. Although the Growth Management Act does not expressly require a countywide planning policy on agricultural lands,the requirement was added by the Interlocal Agreement: Framework Agreement for the Adoption of the Countywide Planning Policy Pierce CountyCouncil Resolution No.R91-172, September 24, 1991). VISION 2040 Multicounty Planning Policies(MPPs) VISION 2040 recognizes that the agricultural land in the central Puget Sound region is among the most productive in Washington State. It also recognized that the loss of these lands, along with their productivity, has impacts on the environment, including air and water quality and quantity, our economy, and ultimately the health of the region's people. VISION 2040 also identifies threats to the region's agricultural lands, including urban development, incompatible adjacent land uses, and the loss of supporting services. VISION 2040 seeks to permanently protect these key agricultural resource lands. The Multicounty PlanningPolicies calls for conserving the region's natural resourcelands, establishing best managementpractices that protect the long-term integrity and productivity of these lands, limiting the conversion of these lands, and ensuringthat development does not adversely impact theselands. Countywide Planning Policy Ag-1.

Ratification Date 23 DI.D Amendments andTransition COUNTYWIDE PLANNING POLICY ON AMENDMENTS AND TRANSITION Background-Requirements of Growth Management Act The Washington State Growth Management Act contemplates that the Countywide Planning Policies will remain effectivethroughout the comprehensiveplan preparation,adoption and implementation processes to ensure that municipal and county comprehensive plans are consistent, as required by the Act[RCW 36.70A.210(1)]. Because the factors,data and analysis upon which the Countywide PlanningPolicies have been formulated are subject to change, it is important that a process be established toeffectuate such changes,whenappropriate and needed. The Washington State Growth Management Act requiresthat each County which adopts a comprehensive plan designate an urban growth area or areas within which urban growth shall be encouraged and outside of whichgrowth can occur only if it is not urban in nature [RCW 36.70A.110(1)]. As discussed above,the factors,data and analysis upon which the UGA designations are initially made are similarly subject to change. Countywide Planning Policy AT-1. Countywide Planning Policies adopted pursuant to the Growth Management Act may be amended by Pierce County and ratified by the municipalities in the County traing-the September 21, 1991). 1.1 Ratification of amendments to the Countywide PlanningPolicies requires the affirmative vote of 60%of the affected governments in the County representing a minimum of 75%of the total Pierce County population as designated by the State Office of Financial Management at the time of the proposed ratification. 1.2 Demonstration of ratification shall be by execution of an interlocal agreement or the absence of a legislative actiontodisapprove a proposed amendment. 1.2.1 A jurisdiction shall be deemed as casting an affirmative vote if it has not taken legislative action to disapprove a proposed amendment within 180 days from thedate the Pierce County Council formally authorizes the Pierce CountyExecutive to enter into an interlocal agreement. 1.3 An amendmentto the Countywide Planning Policies or to any individual policy all hereinafter referred to as proposedamendments)may be initiatedby the County or any municipality in the County or by the Pierce County Regional Council.

Ratification Date 27 DI.D Buildable Lands COUNTYWIDE PLANNING POLICY ON BUILDABLE LANDS Background Requirements of RCW 36.70A.215 RCW 36.70A.215 requires six counties, including Pierce County, toevaluate whether a county and its municipalities are achieving urban densities within urban growth areas. To do this, the counties and municipalities are to compare growth and development assumptions,targets, and objectives contained in the Countywide PlanningPolicies and the County and city and town comprehensive plans with actual growth and development that has occurred. At a minimum, the evaluation is to determine if there is sufficient suitable land to accommodate the countywide population projection and determine the density of housing that has been constructed and amount of land developed for commercial and industrial uses within the urban growth area_ Detailed procedures, standards, and definitions for implementing this policy and complying with RCW 36.70A.215 are found in the current report titled Pierce County Buildable Lands, Procedures for Collectingand Monitoring Data, hereinafter referred to as the Procedures Report.

Ratification Date 31 DI.D Community and Urban Design NEW CHAPTER COUNTYWIDEPLANNING POLICY ON COMMUNITY AND URBAN DESIGN Background-Growth Management Act The Washington State Growth Management Act identifies as a planning goal to encourage development in urban areas and to reduce the inappropriate conversion of undeveloped land into sprawling, low-densitydevelopment. To encourage this type of urban development that has increased density,and is compact and serviced by multiple transportation alternatives, it requires close attentionto the urban design,community context and character, in orderto function effectively and consistent with the vision of an individual community. The Growth Management Act does not expressly require that the County adopt a planning policy on urban design;however, VISION 2040 and the Multicounty Planning Policies provide goals and policies related toregional design and urban design. VISION 2040 Multicounty Planning Policies(MPPs) VISION 2040 called for identifying and protecting significant visual and cultural resources that preserve community character. It calls for designing facilities throughout the regionthat advance community development,and for creating parks and civic spaces. VISION 2040 also advances redevelopment and infill as opportunities for revitalizing communities, including along linear corridors(such as low-scale retail strips along the thoroughfares). Open space and parks at a variety of scales create public amenities,contribute to the character of communities,and provide opportunities for recreation and physical activity. Countywide Planning Policy CU-1. The County,andeach municipality in the County,will develop high quality,compact communities that: 1.1 impart a sense of place; 1.2 preserve local character; 1.3 provide for mixed uses and choicesin housing types;and 1.4 encourage walking, bicycling,and transit use.

Additionally,the Growth Management Act expressly requires that the County adopt a planning policy on countywide economic development and employment[RCW 36.70A.210(3)(g)]. VISION 2040 Multicounty Planning Policies(MPPs) VISION 2040recognizesthat a robust economy is integral to our environmental,social, and financial well-being. It acknowledges that a healthy and diverse economy is vital for paying for public services, supporting arts and cultural institutions, and building our communities. The Multicounty PlanningPolicies for economicdevelopment in VISION 2040 are organized around the topics of business,people, and places. An emphasis is placed on enriching the region's businesses and employment market through job retention, growth,and diversification. Importance is alsoplaced on small and locally owned businesses, because they create jobs, can offer family- wage jobs, and make vital contributions to the sustainability of the region's economy and prosperity. VISION 2040 recognizes the region's economic well-being is also dependentupon the safe and reliable movement of people,goods and services,and information and includes provisions for prioritizing economic development and transportation funding to centers.

The County,and each municipality in the County,shall use the results of the any required fiscal impact analysis as one of the factors in determining acceptance, modification,or rejection of the proposal/project. Ratification Date 42 DI.D Health and Well-Being NEW CHAPTER COUNTYWIDE PLANNING POLICY ON HEALTH AND WELL-BEING Background-Growth Management Act The Washington State Growth Management Act identifies as a planning goal to encourage developmentin urban areas and to reduce the inappropriateconversion of undeveloped land into sprawling, low-density development. The GMA alsoencourages multimodal transportation systems to encourage walking and other alternativesto the automobile. These transportationoptions provide for greater opportunity for walking and exercise that further promoteshealth and well-being. Compact communities can also encourage more efficient use of resources, reduced air pollution, and thereby reduce impactson climate change. The GMA also sets forth a goal to protect the environment and enhancethe state's high quality of life, including air and water quality. These are also related to healthy living as well as climate change. VISION 2040 contains specific goals and policies addressing health and well-being,climate,change and air and water quality. In 2005,the legislature amended the GMA torequire communities to adopt and implement plans and strategies to promote an increase inphysical activity among Washington State citizens. In response to this requirement,jurisdictions updated transportation elements to include a pedestrian and bicycle component,as well as identified planned improvements for those facilities and corridors. Other strategies for achievingimproved public health include the adoption of"Complete Streets"policies,policies addressing the development and improvement of infrastructuresupportive of community walkability,and improvements addressing the safety of bicyclists and pedestrians. Jurisdictionscontinue to adopt these mechanisms to enhance public health, consistent with the2005 amendments to the GMA. VISION 2040 Multicounty Planning Policies(MPPs) VISION 2040 acknowledges that the health and well-being of the region's people is fundamental to maintaining and improving the region's sustainability and quality of life. It recognizes that human health is affected by thehealth of the natural environment,the strength of our region's communities and social networks,the way we build our cities and transportation systems,and theaesthetics and functionality of thosesystems. VISION 2040 addresses numerous ways that humanhealth canbe impacted in the central Puget Sound region,such as exposure to air and water pollution,automobile- related injuries anddeaths,chronic diseases related to physical inactivity,and lack of fresh and healthy foods. It further recognizes thatattentionto health as a consequence of planning and infrastructure decisions can improve quality of life,reduce health carecosts,and lessen impacts from lost productivity. VISION 2040 addresses many of the region's health concerns by providing strategies that will significantly reduce air and water pollution from transportation activities and other sources. A core concept of VISION 2040 is improving the safety of the transportation system for drivers, passengers,pedestrians,bicyclists,and others. Multicounty planningpoliciescall for designing Ratification Date 43 DI.D Health and Well-Being transportation facilities to serve all users safely and efficiently. This includes building and improving sidewalks, bike lanes,trails and paths and adopting land use strategies to bring homes closer to jobs, shopping,services, and recreation activities. VISION 2040 also states that health considerations should be addressed in regional and local planning and decision-making processes. It encourages design guidelines in the construction of buildings and facilities and regional farming and food production. Countywide Planning Policy HW-1. The County, and each municipality in the County,will be designedto promote physical,social,and mental well-being so that all people can live healthier and more activelives by: 1.1 designing communities to provide an improved environment for walking and bicycling;and 1.2 developing and implementing design guidelines to encourage construction of healthy buildings and facilities to promotehealthy people;and 1.3 developing and implementing community plans and programs,such as community gardens and farmer's markets,that provide support for agricultural, farmland,and aquatic uses that facilitate the production of fresh and minimally processed healthy foods,and encourage community access to those resources.

Ratification Date 45 DI.D Historic,Archaeological and Cultural Preservation COUNTYWIDEPLANNING POLICY ON HISTORIC, ARCHAEOLOGICAL AND CULTURAL PRESERVATION Background-Requirements of Growth Management Act The Washington State Growth Management Act mandates '. . • - . that counties and cities identify and encourage the preservation of lands, sites and structures,that have historical or archaeological significance. [RCW 36.70A.020(13)]. Theterm "significance" is notdefined. ; although However, it is well-recognized that the federal andstate governments have programs that have been inoperation for some time by which land, sites, structures and districts of national significance arm may be placed onthe National Register of Historic Places and land, sites and structures of state significance arm may be placedonthe State Register of Historic Places. Certaincities, including Tacoma,have adopted local programs to designateland,sitesand structures of local significance. Although the Growth Management Act Amendments-ale do_es notrequire a countywide planning policy on historic,archaeological and cultural preservation,that requirement was added by the Interlocal Agreement: "Framework Agreement for the Adoption of the Countywide Planning Policy(Pierce CountyCouncil Resolution No.R91-172, September 24, 1991)". VISION 2040 Multicounty Planning Policies(MPPs) VISION 2040 promotes the preservation of significant visual and cultural resources, including public views, landmarks and cultural landscapes, and areas of special interest, in addition to historic and archeological resources.

Ratification Date 48 DI.D Natural Resources, Open Space,Protection of Environmentally Sensitive Lands&Environment COUNTYWIDE PLANNING POLICY ON NATURAL RESOURCES,OPEN SPACE,20113 PROTECTION OF ENVIRONMENTALLY-SENSITIVE LANDS,AND THE ENVIRONMENT Background-Requirements of Growth Management Act The Washington State Growth Management Act identifies the following as planning goals: (4-) maintain and enhance natural resource-based industries,including productive timber,agricultural and fisheriesindustries![RCW 36.70A.020(8)];(2)encourage the conservation of productive forest lands and productive agricultural lands,and discourage incompatible uses [RCW 36.70A.020(8)]; 3)encourage the retention of open space and development of recreational opportunities, conserve fish and wildlife habitat, increase access to natural resourcelands and water,and develop parks RCW 36.70A.020(9)];and,(4)protect the environment and enhance the state's high quality of life, including air and water quality,and the availability of water[RCW 36.70A.020(10)]. Although The degree of interconnectedness between them these goals leads to the development of a single,comprehensive planning policy. Although the Growth Management Act does not expressly require a countywide planning policy on natural resources, open space,and protection of environmentally sensitive lands,the addition of such a policy was specifically identified in the Pierce County Interlocal Agreement: "Framework Agreement for the Adoption of the Countywide Planning Policy(Pierce County Council Resolution No.R-91-172, September 24, 1991)". VISION 2040 Multicounty Planning Policies(MPPs) VISION 2040 acknowledges thatcertain development patterns and practices havedamaged and threaten to further disrupt the region's ecosystems. It recognizes that while some impacts are irreversible, the region can curb pollution, change land use and transportation patterns, and better manage wasteto protect key ecological functions and help restore the environment. VISION 2040 stresses the ecological, economic, and health benefits of preserving and restoring our natural environment. The Multicounty Planning Policies in VISION 2040 have been developed around the theme of environmental stewardship and sustainability. This is further expressed in VISION 2040's theme of people, prosperity and planet. This theme recognizesthe important relationship between ourcommunities, oureconomy, and ourenvironment. VISION 2040 acknowledges that atmospheric pollution threatens to alterthe way the natural environmentfunctions and to affect human health and well-being. It recognizes that theaverage annualtemperatures are already rising in the Pacific Northwest and that reduced snowpack and earlier spring runoffs could result in increasing water shortages and droughtconditions. VISION 2040's commitment to sustainable growth, clean transportation, and environmentally friendly development practices will help reduce greenhouse gas emissions andcreate healthier communities. VISION 2040 also provides guidance for reducing greenhouse gas emissions and planning for various impacts caused by climate change. Included is an overarching goal thatcalls for reducing pollutants which contribute to climate change. Multicounty planning policies commit the region to comply with recent state directives regarding the reduction of greenhouse gases and call on Ratification Date 49 DI.D Natural Resources, Open Space,Protection of Environmentally Sensitive Lands&Environment jurisdictions and agencies to include an analysis of climate change impacts when performing environmental review under the State Environmental Policy Act. Additional provisions call for reducing the rate of energy use per capita and developing newenergymanagement technology as part of meeting the region's energy needs. Countywide Planning Policy Env-1.

Ratification Date 62 DI.D Rural Areas NEW CHAPTER COUNTYWIDEPLANNING POLICY ON RURAL AREAS Background-Growth Management Act The Washington State Growth Management Act requires that county comprehensive plans include a rural elementthat includes lands that are not designated for urban growth, agriculture, forest, or mineral resources. This element is guided by multiple sections in the GMA related to rural areas, including RCW 36.70A.030 (Definitions), RCW 36.70A.01I (Findings-Rural lands), RCW 36.70A.070 (5) (Comprehensive plans-Mandatory elements-RuralElement); and others. Rural elements are intended to recognize the importance of rural lands and rural character to Washington's economy, its people, and its environment,while respecting regional differences. In the rural element, counties are to foster land use patterns and develop a local vision of rural character that will: help preserve rural-based economies and traditional rural lifestyles; encouragethe economic prosperity of rural residents; foster opportunities for small-scale, rural- based employment and self-employment; permit the operation of rural-based agricultural, commercial, recreational, and tourist businesses that are consistent with existing and planned land use patterns; be compatible with the use of the land by wildlife and for fish and wildlife habitat; foster the private stewardship of the land and preservation of open space;and enhance the rural sense of community and quality of life. While the GMA assigns responsibility for adopting a rural element to counties, all jurisdictions in a county, particularly those surrounded by or adjacent to rural lands, have an interest in what occurs on rural lands. Hence, rural lands are includedin the Countywide Planning Policies in order to achieve consistency between and among the plans of cities and the county. VISION 2040 Multicounty Planning Policies(MPPs) VISION 2040 identifies rural lands as permanent and vital parts of the region. It recognizes that rural lands accommodate many activities associated with natural resources, as well as small-scale farming and cottage industries. VISION 2040 emphasizes the preservation of these lands and acknowledges that managing rural growth by directing urban-type development into designated urbanlands helps to preserve vital ecosystems and economically productive lands. VISION 2040 also acknowledges recent successes in directing growth away from rural lands. However, it acknowledges that conversion pressures from urban developmentcontinue today, particularly throughvesting, and calls for continued use of rural lands for farming, forestry, recreation, and low-densitydevelopment supported by rural services. The Multicounty Planning Policies reinforce this and call for minimizing environmental impacts to rural lands,while providing long-term solutions for the environmental and economic sustainability of rural-based industries. Ratification Date 63 DI.D Rural Areas Countywide Planning Policies Rur-1.

Ratification Date 69 DI.D Transportation Facilities and Strategies COUNTYWIDE PLANNING POLICY ON TRANSPORTATION FACILITIES AND STRATEGIES Background-Requirements of Growth Management Act TheWashington State Growth Management Act identifies transportation facilities planning and, specifically,encouraging efficient multi-modal transportation systems based on regional priorities and coordinated with local comprehensive plans,as a planning goal to guide the development and adoption of comprehensive plans and development regulations [RCW 36.70A.020(3)]. In addition, it identifies a transportation element as a mandatory element of a county or city comprehensive plan RCW 36.70A.070(6)]. The transportation element must include: (a) land use assumptions used in estimating travel;(b)facilities and services needs;(c)finance;(d) intergovernmental coordination efforts, including an assessment of the impacts of the transportation plan and land use assumptions onthe transportation systems of adjacent jurisdictions;and(e)demand management strategies RCW 36.70A.070(6)(a)-(c)]. The Growth Management Act expressly requires a Countywide Planning Policy on transportation facilities and strategies [RCW 36.70A.210(3)(d)]. The Commute Reduction Efficiency Act of 2006(RCW 70.94.521-531)goal is to reduce congestion on the roadway network and help address the air pollution issues within theurban areas. This act requires localgovernmentsto work with their larger employers to develop and implement strategies for reducing their single occupant auto trips. Jurisdictions affected by the commute trip reduction (CTR) law are required to developlocal CTR plans that include the documenting of local transportationsetting of the affected work sites an d thestrategies by which the rate of single occupant vehicle use may be reduced. VISION 2040 Multicounty Planning Policies(MPPs) VISION 2040 offers an integrated approachtoaddressing land use and transportation,along with the environment and economic development. It calls for a clean, sustainable transportation future that supports the regional growth strategy. Sustainable transportation involves the efficient and environmentally sensitive movement of people, information,goods and services—with attention to safety and health. Sustainable transportation minimizes the impacts of transportation activities on our air, water,and climate. It includes the design of walkable cities and bikable neighborhoods,as well as usingalternatives to driving alone. It relies on cleaner,renewable resources for energy. Thetransportation-related multicounty planning policies in VISION 2040 are presented in three groups. The first group of policies calls for maintaining, preserving,and operating the existing transportation system in a safer and more efficient way. They advance transportation that is less polluting. The second group of policiescall for developing thesystem to support the regional growth center,particularly travel within and between centers. Investments are to be prioritizedto serve centersand to support pedestrian-oriented,mixed use development. The policies address complete streets to serve all users, green streets that are better for the environment,and context- sensitive design, that guides the development of transportation facilities to better fit within the context of the communities in which they are located. There are policies addressing nonmotorized transportation as well as freight. The final group of policies address greater transportation options, Ratification Date 70 DI.D Transportation Facilities and Strategies including alternatives to driving alone, mobility choices for people with special needs, and avoiding new roads or capacity expansion in rural areas, Countywide Planning Policy Tr-1.

[RCW 36.70A.110(1); for definition of"urban growth"see RCW 36.70A.030(17).] The designated UGAs shall be of adequatesizeand appropriate permissible densities so as to accommodate the urban growth that is projectedby the State Office of Financial Managementto occur in the County for the succeeding 20-year period. While each UGA shall permit urban densities, it shall also include greenbelt and open space areas[RCW 36.70A.110(2)]. As to the timing and sequencing of urban growth and development over the20-year planning period,urban growth shall occur first in areas already characterized by urban growth that have existing public facility and service capacities to service such development,second in areas already characterized by urban growth that will be served by a combination of both existing publicfacilities and services and any additional needed publicfacilities and services that are provided by either public or private sources [RCW 36.70A.110(3)]. Urban government services shall be provided primarily by cities,and -.. . it is not appropriate that urban governmental services be extended to or expanded in rural areas except in those limited circumstances shownto be necessary to protect basic public health and safety and environment and when such services are financially supportable at rural densities and donot permit urban development [RCW 36.70A.110(4)]. The Growth Management Act Amendments expressly require that countywide planning policies address the implementation of UGA designations[RCW 36.70A.210(3)(a)],the promotion of contiguous and orderly development,the provision of urban services to such development[RCW 36.70A.210(3)(b)],and the coordination of joint county and municipal planning within UGAs RCW 36.70A.210(3)(f)]. Ratification Date 78 DI.D Urban Growth Areas VISION 2040 Multicountv Planning Policies(MPPs) VISION 2040 calls for a more efficient, sustainable,and strategic use of the region's land.It identifies urban lands as a critical component to accommodate population and employment growth in a sustainable way. VISION 2040 calls for directing development to the region's existing urban lands,especially in centers and compact communities, and limiting growth on rural lands. The Regional Growth Strategy found in VISION 2040 allocates 93 percent of the region's future populationgrowth and97 percent of its employment growth into the existing urban growth area. Cities are divided into fourdistinct groups: Metropolitan Cities,Core Cities,Large Cities,and Small Cities. An additional geography is Unincorporated Urban Growth Areas. VISION 2040 recognizesthat unincorporated urban lands are often similar in character tocities they are adjacent to, calling for them to be affiliated with adjacent cities for joint planning purposes and future annexation. VISION 2040 recognizesthat compact development creates vibrant, livable,and healthy urban communities that offer economicopportunities for all, provide housing and transportation choices, and use our resources wisely. The Multicounty Planning Policies support the effective use of urban land and include provisions that address brownfield and contaminated site clean-up, the development of compact communities and centers with pedestrian-friendly,transit-oriented locations and a mix of residences,jobs,retail,and other amenities,and the siting of facilities a nd majorpublic amenities in compact urban communities and centers. VISION 2040 recognizesthat centers provide easy access to jobs, services, shopping, and entertainment. With their mix of uses and pedestrian-friendly design, they can rely less on forms of transportation that contribute to air pollution and greenhouse gas emissions. VISION 2040 identifies 27 regional growth centers. These places play an important role as locations of the region's most significant business, governmental, and cultural facilities. The 18 citiesthat have one or more regional growth centers are expected to accommodate a significant portion of the region's residential growth (53 percent) and employmentgrowth (71 percent). VISION 2040 calls for local jurisdictions with regional growth centersto adopthousing and employment targets for each center. Eight regional manufacturing/industrial centers havealso been designated. These are locations for more intensive commercial and industrial activity. Both regional growth centers and regional manufacturing/industrial centers are focal points for economicdevelopment and transportation infrastructure investments. Subregional centers, including downtowns in suburban cities and other neighborhood centers, also play an important role in VISION 2040's Regional Growth Strategy. These,too, are strategic locations for concentrating jobs, housing, shopping, and recreational opportunities. VISION 2040 calls for each of the region's cities to develop one or more central places as compact mixed-use hubs for concentrating residences,jobs, shops, and community facilities. Urban services addressed in VISION 2040 include wastewater and stormwater systems, solid waste,energy,telecommunications,emergency services,and water supply. An overarching goal of VISION 2040 is to provide sufficient and efficient public services and facilities in a manner that is healthy, safe,and economicallyviable. Conservation is a major theme throughout VISION 2040. Ratification Date 79 DI.D Urban Growth Areas The Multicounty Planning Policies address increasing recycling and reducing waste and encouragingmore efficient use of water, low-impactdevelopment techniques,and renewable and alternative energy. The Multicounty PlanningPolicies also address siting of public facilities and the appropriateness and scale of particular public services. VISION 2040 calls for jurisdictions to invest in facilities and amenities that serve centers and restrict urban facilities in rural and resource areas. The Multicounty Planning Policies also discourage schools and other institutions serving urban residents from locating outside the urban growth area. Principles of Understanding Between Pierce County andthe Municipalities in Pierce County While following the goals and regulations of the Growth Management Act,Pierce County and the municipalities in Pierce County will strive to protect the individual identities and spirit of each of our cities and of the rural areas and unincorporated communities. Further agreements will be necessary to carry out the framework of joint planning adopted herein. These agreements will be between the County andeach city and between the variouscities. The services provided within ourcommunities by special purpose districts are of vital importance to our citizens. Consistent with the adopted regional strategy,these districts will be part of future individual and groupnegotiations under the framework adopted by the County and municipal governments. While the Growth Management Act defines sewer service as an urbanservice,Pierce County currently is a major provider of both sewer transmission and treatment services. The County and municipalities recognize that it is appropriate for the County and municipalities to continue to provide sewer transmission and treatment services. The County recognizes that unincorporated lands within UGAs are often potential annexation areas for cities. These are also areas where incorporation of new cities can occur. The County will work with existing municipalities and emerging communitiesto make such transitions efficiently. At the same time,annexations and incorporations have direct and significant impacts on the revenue of countygovernment,and therefore, may affect the ability of the County to fulfill its role asa provider of certain regional services. The municipalities will work closely with the County to developappropriate revenue sharing and contractual services arrangements that facilitate thegoals of GMA. The Countywide PlanningPolicies are intended to be theconsistent"theme"of growth management planning among the County and municipalities. The policies also spell out processes and mechanisms designed tofoster open communication and feedback among the jurisdictions. The County and the cities and towns will adhere to the processes and mechanisms provided in the policies. Ratification Date 80 DI.D Urban Growth Areas Growth Targets The Regional Growth Strategy set forth in VISION 2040 provides guidance for the distribution of future population and employment growth through theyear2040 within the Central Puget Sound Region. This strategy in combination with the Office of Financial Management's population forecasts provide a framework for establishing growth targets consistent with the requirements of the Growth Management Act. Consistent with VISION 2040,these growth targets are the minimum number of residents,housingunits,or jobs a given jurisdiction is planning to accommodate within the appropriate planninghorizon and are informational tools integrated into local land use plans to assist in formulating future residential and employment land needs. These targets are to be developed through a collaborative countywide process that ensures all jurisdictions are accommodating a fair share of growth. Achievement of the future envisioned by VISION 2040 will be challenging.Jurisdictionsin some regional geographies will likely be planning for growth targets that are above or below the policy direction set by the Regional Growth Strategy because they are on a front-orback-loaded growth trajectory toward 2040. In otherregional geographies, recent growth has been at such significant odds with the policy direction set by the Regional Growth Strategy (such as recent growth in unincorporated urbanPierce County from 2000 to 2007 has already accounted for more than half of the 40-year growth allocation), that the 2040 goal will likely be exceeded. In such cases,jurisdictions are asked to set growth targets as close to VISION 2040 as reasonably possible in an effort to"bendthe trend"of future growth to more closelyconform to the - Regional Growth Strategy. If a jurisdiction's adoptedtarget is lower orhigher thanexpected from a straight-line application of the Regional Growth Strategy, certification by the Puget Sound Regional Council (PSRC) will be based on the actions and measures taken or pro posedto be put in place tobend the trend, notjust on an assessment of the adoptedtargets. It is recognized that some of the urban growth areas in existence prior to the adoption of VISION 2040 maycontain more potential housing and employment capacity based upon zoning, allowed density, land division patterns, and other factors than is needed to accommodate the growth target of the associated geography. In many cases, these urban growth areas have been in existence for a decade or more, contain existing development patterns which are urban in , character, and are served by sanitary sewer and other urban infrastructure. These areas are largely expected to remain within the urban growth area consistent with their urban character. Expansion of these urban growth area boundaries that do not comply with provisions in the Amendments and Transition section of these policies is acknowledged to be inconsistent with CPPs and is strongly discouraged. Centers Centers are to be areas of concentrated employment and/or housing within UGAs which serve as the hubs of transit and transportation systems. Centers and connecting corridors are integralto creating compact urban developmentthat conserves resources and creates additional transportation,housing, and shopping choices. Centers are an important part of the regional strategy(VISION 2040) for urban growth and are required to be addressed in the Countywide PlanningPolicies. Centers will become focalpoints for growth within the county's UGA and will be areas where public investment is directed. Ratification Date 81 DI.D Urban Growth Areas Centers are to: be priority locations for accommodating growth; strengthen existing development patterns; promote housing opportunities close to employment; support development of an extensive multimodal transportation system which reduces dependency on automobiles; reduce congestion and improve air quality;and maximize the benefit of public investment in infrastructure and services. VISION 2040,the adopted regional growth strategy, identifies several different-types-of centers as an integral feature for accommodating residential and employment growth. ,including three types of Urban Centers: (1)Regional Center, (2)Metropolitan Center,(3)Urban Center,which feature a mix of land uses,as well as a category for Town Center. (Note: In 2003,PSRC replaced the term PSRC's Designation Criteria.) The strategy describes Regional Growth Centers,and other centers thatmay be designated through countywide processes or locally. Regional Growth Centers once regionally designated are located either in Metropolitan Cities, or inCore Cities. VISION 2040 also identifies Manufacturing/Industrial Centers,which consist primarily of manufacturing and industrial uses. (See 1995 VISION 2040 Update,pages 85 and 86.) Pierce County has five Urban-Centers Pierce County has five Regional Growth Centers and two Manufacturing/Industrial Centers that have been adopted into the regional growth strategy. Pierce County Regional Growth Centers are designated as-either located inTacoma,which is a Metropolitan City, and in Lakewood and Puyallup,which are Core Cities. - - , ' :•: . _ . - - - - , : s follows: Regional Growth Centers in the Metropolitan City Centers TacomaCentral Business District Tacoma Mall Regional Growth Centers in Core Cities TT2 all Lakewood Puyallup Downtown Puyallup South Hill Currently there are no designated Countywide Centers. Manufacturing/Industrial Centers are areas whereemployee-or land-intensive uses will be located. Thesecenters differ from Regional Growth Centers in that they consist of an extensive land base and the exclusion of non-manufacturingor manufacturing-supportive usesis an essential feature of their character. These areas are characterized by a significant amount of manufacturing, industrial, and advanced technologyemployment uses. Large retail and non-related office uses are discouraged. Other than caretakers'residences,housing is prohibited within Manufacturing/Industrial Centers. However,these centers should be linked to highdensity housing Ratification Date 82 DI.D Urban Growth Areas areas by an efficient multimodal transportation system. The efficiency of rail and overland freight to markets is the critical element for manufacturers and industries located in these centers. The designated Manufacturing/Industrial Centers,within Pierce County are as follows: Manufacturing/Industrial Centers Frederickson Port of Tacoma Within Pierce County,a limited number of additional centers may be designated through amendment of the Countywide PlanningPolicies consistent with theprocess below. Designated centers mayvarysubstantially in the number of households and jobs they contain today. Theintent of the Countywide Planning Policies is thatRegional Growth Centers become attractive places to live and work,while supporting efficient public services such as transit and being responsive to the local market for jobs and housing. The Countywide PlanningPolicies establish target levels for housing and employment needed to achieve the benefit of a center. Somecenters will reach these levels over the next twenty years, while for others the criteria set a path for growth over a longerterm, providing capacity to accommodate growth beyond the twenty year horizon. County-Level CentersDesignation Process The County and any municipality in the County that is planning to include a Metropolitan City Center,Regional Growth Center, Countywide Center or Manufacturing/Industrial Center within its boundaries shall specifically define the area of such center within its comprehensiveplan. The comprehensiveplan shall include policies aimed at focusinggrowth within the center and along corridors consistent with the applicable criteria contained within the Countywide Planning Policies. The Countyor municipality shall adopt regulationsthat reinforce the center's designation. No more often than once every two years,the Pierce County Regional Council(PCRC)shall invite jurisdictions with centers already adopted in their comprehensive plan that seek to be designated as centers in the Countywide PlanningPolicies to submit a request for such designation. Said request shall be processed in accordance with establishedprocedures for amending the Countywide PlanningPolicies. Each jurisdiction seeking to have a center designated in the Countywide PlanningPolicies shall provide the PCRC with a report demonstrating thattheproposedcenter meets the minimum criteria for designationtogether with a statement and map describing the center, its consistency with the applicable Countywide PlanningPolicies,and how adopted regulations will serve the center. Transit services shall be defined in the broadest sense and shall include local and regional bus service,rail where appropriate,vanpool,carpool,and othertransportation demand measures designed to reduce vehicle trips. The minimum designation criteria to establish a candidatecenter by type are as follows: Ratification Date 83 DI.D Urban Growth Areas Metropolitan City Center Area: upto 1-1/2 square miles in size; Capital Facilities: served by sanitary sewers; Employment: a minimum of 25 employees per gross acre of non-residential lands with a minimum of 15,000 employees; Population: a minimum of ten householdsper gross acre;and Transit: serve as a focal point for regional and local transit services. Regional Growth Center Area: up to 1-1/2 square miles in size; Capital Facilities: served by sanitary sewers; Employment: a minimum of 2,000employees; Population: a minimum of seven households per gross acre;and Transit: serve as a focal point for regional and local transit services. Countywide Center Area: up to one square mile in size; Capital Facilities: served by sanitary sewers; Employment: a minimum of 1,000 employees; Population: a minimum of 6 households per gross acre;and Transit: serve as a focal point for local transit services. Manufacturing/Industrial Center Capital Facilities: served bysanitary sewers; Employment: a minimum of 7,500 jobs and/or 2,000 truck trips per day;and Transportation: within one mile of a state or federal highway or national rail line. The minimum criteria report and statement shall be reviewed by the Growth Management Coordinating Committee(GMCC)for consistency with Countywide PlanningPolicies,the Transportation Coordination Committee for consistency with transportationimprovements plans of WSDOT,and with Pierce Transit's comprehensive plan. The coordinating committees shall provide joint recommendation to the PCRC. Once includedin the Countywide PlanningPolicies,the jurisdiction where a center is located may goon to seek regional designation of thecenter from the Puget Sound Regional Council (PSRC) in accordance with its established criteria and process. In order to be designated a Regional Growth Center the center should meet the regional criteria and requirements including those in VISION 2040,the regional growth,economic and transportation strategy as may be amended and designated by the Puget Sound Regional Council. After county-level designation occurs within the Countywide Planning Policies and until regional- level designationby the PSRC occurs the center shall be considered a"candidate"Regional Growth Center. Ratification Date 84 DI.D Urban Growth Areas Each jurisdiction which designates a Regional Growth Center shall establish 20-year household and employment growth targets for thatCenter. The expected range of targets will reflect the diversity of the various centers and allow communities to effectively plan for needed services. The target ranges not only set a policy for the level of growth envisioned for each center,but also for the timing and funding of infrastructure improvements. Reaching the target ranges will requirecareful planning of public investment and providing incentives for private investments. Urban Growth Outside of Centers A variety of urban land uses and areas of growth will occur outside of designated centers but within the UGA. Local land use plans will guidethe location,scale,timing and design of development within UGAs. The UGA will be where the majority of future growth and development will be targeted. Development should be encouraged which complements the desired focus of growth into centers and supports a multimodal transportation system. For example,policies which encourage infill and revitalization of communities would help to achievethe regional and statewide objectives of a compact and concentrated development pattern within urban areas. The Countywide Planning Policies provide guidance for development and the provision of urban services tosupport development within the UGA. Satellite Cities and Towns The cities and towns in the rural areas are a significant part of Pierce County's diversity and heritage. They have an important role as local trade and community centers. These cities and towns are the appropriate providers of local rural services for the community. They also contribute to the variety of development patterns and housing choices within the county. As municipalities,these cities and townsprovide urban services and are located within the County's designated UGA. The urban services,residential densities and mix of land uses may differ from those of the large, contiguous portion of the UGA in Pierce County.

Background Summary: The Pierce County Countywide Planning Policies (CPPs) were amended in 2009 to allow for a process to designate new Candidate Regional Centers. When the CPPs were originally adopted in 1992, six Regional Growth Centers were identified. There are three proposed Candidate Regional Centers: · Cities of Sumner and Pacific for a new Manufacturing and Industrial Center · City of Tacoma for a new Manufacturing and Industrial Center · City of University Place for a new Regional Growth Center The three jurisdictions submitted their applications to the Pierce County Regional Council (PCRC) and those were forwarded to the Growth Management Coordinating Committee (GMCC) for review. After reviewing the applications against the criteria outlined in the CPPs, the GMCC made its recommendation of approval on January 27, 2011 and forwarded that recommendation to the PCRC. The PCRC reviewed the proposals and recommended approval of the proposals in three separate motions on March 17, 2011. As the first step in the ratification process, the Pierce County Council adopted Ordinance No. 20001-35s on August 9, 2011 and forwarded the approved amendments to the Pierce County cities and towns for ratification. The amendments to the CPPs become effective when 60 percent of the jurisdictions in Pierce County representing 75 percent of the total population adopt the amendments. This threshold correlates to 14 cities and towns and Pierce County representing a minimum of 601,612 people.

Centers and connecting corridors are integralto creating 6 compact urban development that conserves resources and creates additional transportation,housing, 7 and shopping choices. Centers are an important part of the regional strategy(VISION 2040)for 8 urban growth and are required to be addressed in the Countywide Planning Policies. Centers will 9 become focalpoints for growth within the county's UGA and will be areas where public investment 10 is directed. 11 I 12 Centers are to: 13 14 • be priority locations for accommodating growth; 15 • strengthen existing development patterns; 16 • promote housing opportunities closeto employment; 17 • support development of an extensive multimodal transportation system which reduces 18 dependency on automobiles; 19 • reduce congestion and improve air quality;and 20 • maximize the benefit of public investment in infrastructure and services. 21 22 VISION 2040,the adopted regional growth strategy, identifies several centers as an integral feature 23 for accommodatingresidential and employmentgrowth. Thestrategy describes Regional Growth 24 Centers,and other centers thatmay be designated through countywide processes or locally. 25 Regional Growth Centers once regionally designated are located either in Metropolitan Cities,or in 26 Core Cities. VISION 2040 also identifies Manufacturing/Industrial Centers,which consist 27 primarily of manufacturing and industrial uses. Pierce County has five Regional Growth Centers 28 and two Manufacturing/Industrial Centers that have been adopted into the regionalgrowth strategy. 29 Pierce County Regional Growth Centers are located in Tacoma,which is a Metropolitan City,and 30 in Lakewood and Puyallup,which are Core Cities, . 31 32 Regional Growth Centers in the Metropolitan City 33 Tacoma CentralBusiness District 34 Tacoma Mall 35 36 Regional Growth Centers in Core Cities 37 Lakewood 38 Puyallup Downtown 39 Puyallup South Hill 40 41 Currently there are no designated Countywide Centers. 42 43 Manufacturing/Industrial Centers are areas whereemployee-or land-intensive uses will be located. 44 These centers differ from Regional Growth Centers in that theyconsist of an extensive land base 45 and the exclusion of non-manufacturing or manufacturing-supportive uses is an essential feature of 46 their character. These areasare characterized by a significant amount of manufacturing,industrial; Exhibit A to Ordinance No.2011-35s Pierce County Council Page 2 of 5 030 Tacoma Avo WAm98402 f( DI.E Pierce CountyCountywide Planning Policies.The"clean"languagebelowassumes theproposedVISION 2040 Consistencyamendments areratified. 1 and advanced technology employment uses. Large retail and non-related office uses are 2 discouraged. Other than caretakers'residences,housing is prohibited within 3 Manufacturing/Industrial Centers. However,these centers should be linked to high densityhousing 4 areas by an efficientmultimodal transportation system. The efficiency of rail and overland freight 5 tomarkets is the critical element for manufacturers and industries located in these centers. 6 7 The designated Manufacturing/Industr•ial Centers,within Pierce County are as follows: 8 9 Manufacturing/Industrial Centers 10 Frederickson 11 Port of Tacoma 12 13 Within Pierce County,a limited number of additional centers may be designated through 14 amendment of the CountywidePlanning Policies consistent with the process below. 15 16 Designated centers may vary substantially in the number of households and jobs theycontain today. 17 The intent of the CountywidePlanning Policies is thatRegional Growth Centers become attractive 18 places to live and work,while supporting efficient public servicessuch as transit and being 19 responsiveto the local market for jobs and housing. 20 21 The Countywide Planning Policies establish target levels for housing and employment needed to 22 achieve the benefit of a center. Some centers will reach these levels over the next twenty years, 23 while for others the criteria set a path for growth over a longer term,providing capacity to 24 accommodate growth beyond the twenty year horizon. 25 26 County-LevelCenters Designation Process 27 The County and any municipality in the County that is planning to include a Metropolitan City28Center,RegionalGrowth Center,Countywide Center or Manufacturing/Industrial Center within its 29 boundariesshall specifically define the area of such center within its comprehensiveplan. The 30 comprehensive plan shall include policies aimed at focusing growth within thecenter and along 31 corridors consistent with the applicable criteria contained within the Countywide Planning Policies. 32 The Countyor municipality shall adopt regulations that reinforce thecenter's designation. 33 34 No more often than once every two years,the Pierce County Regional Council(PCRC)shall invite 35 jurisdictions with centers already adopted in their comprehensive plan that seek to be designated as 36 centers in the Countywide Planning Policies to submit a request for such designation. Said request 37 shall beprocessed in accordance with established procedures for amending the Countywide 38 PlanningPolicies. 39 40 Each jurisdiction seeking to have a center designated in the Countywide Planning Policies shall 41 provide the PCRC with a report demonstrating that theproposed center meets the minimum criteria 42 for designation together with a statement and map describing thecenter,its consistency with the 43 applicable CountywidePlanning Policies,and how adopted regulations will serve the center. 44 45 Transit services shall be defined in the broadest sense and shall include local and regional bus 46 service,rail whereappropriate,vanpool,carpool,and other transportation demand measures 47 designed to reduce vehicle trips.

Each firm, Washington2 Advocates (W2A) and Thompson, Smitch Consulting Group, brings a unique set of skills, background and relationships that together help advance the goals of the City of Auburn. While our focus is federal issues, we are a part of the City’s team assisting with important priorities at the state and local level as well. SUCESSES IN 2011 x Defend the Public Works Trust Fund -- In conjunction with partners in Olympia the Auburn team successfully defended the City’s position within the Public Works Trust Fund. This required a great deal of work within an exceptionally short timeframe. x Game Farm Park -- We worked with the City and State Agency leadership to reach a potential deal for the remaining Game Farm Park property. Leveraging historical relationships with leadership at the State Agencies, the Auburn team was able to navigate the State regulatory environment and assemble a possible pathway for success in securing the remaining four plus acres of the Game Farm Park property in perpetuity, thus avoiding the scheduled public auction for the property. x Historic Post Office -- We have worked extensively with the King County Executive’s team to negotiate the sale of the Historic Post Office either to the City or to a local buyer. We have provided strategic counsel and support to ensure the County understands this is a City priority. x Regional Firing Range -- Our team, rolled out an effort to secure funding sources for the Regional Firing Range with help from the Federal Delegation. Although the Federal budgetary climate is presently difficult, the Auburn team was able to work DI.F with the City and the Federal delegation to secure critical meetings and briefings with potential funding partners. Key to this effort is the Homeland Security construct within Washington State. The team has been able to secure a briefing with Homeland Security leadership while at the same time briefing and gaining support from several Federal law enforcement agencies. We also assisted the City with an effort to develop letters of support from several local law enforcement agencies and potential partners. x M Street Project -- Our team provided strategic counsel regarding the M street grade separation project, developing an alternative federal funding option for the City including grant options and a strategic plan engaging Senator Murray’s office. x Federal Funding -- The government relations team has been heavily involved in advocating for Auburn specific issues and protecting programs the City values most. Our teams have tracked, provided analysis, and advocated on behalf of funding with our delegation for several federal programs important to the City including: High Speed Rail funding, COPS funding, Community Development Block Grant funds among others. With heavy budget cuts worsening on a yearly basis the Federal Government is regularly proposing initiatives that could negatively impact the City of Auburn. Through our work the delegation has been effective at blunting as much harmful policy as possible x Water and Flooding Issues -- Our team, performed extensive contingency planning on behalf of the City of Auburn concerning Howard Hansen Dam, city levees, the Corps, and FEMA. The Auburn team possesses a longstanding historical perspective and working knowledge on flooding issues as a result of past work on Howard Hansen Dam and with the Corps. As a result the team was able to strategically plan for City options dependent upon the result of the final FEMA appeal. We have consistently communicated with the federal delegation, King County staff, and agency staff on issues of importance to Auburn whether the appeal of FEMA emergency funds for flooding preparation or on levee issues. x Federal Legislation -- We have also worked with the delegation to support legislation or key provisions in legislation important to the City. A few examples include: o Congressman Reichert’s introduction of a fix for Health Reimbursement Accounts, and the Valley Cities Water Resources Development Act requests. o Transportation Reauthorization: We monitored action in the House and Senate on SAFETEA-LU, legislation that authorizes funding for federal transportation projects and briefed senior congressional staff on the requests for the City of Auburn. x Washington State Government -- We worked with the City on an ongoing basis to execute outreach to the Washington State Legislative leadership and the Governor’s office on issues of critical interest. The Auburn team has been effective leveraging existing Washington State Legislative and Office of the Governor contacts to protect vital funding streams at the State level. Auburn and cities across the State have and will face serious efforts to cut State funds that historically go towards police and fire amongst other important services. With massive budget shortfalls in Olympia, the DI.F Auburn team is persistent in efforts to ensure that Auburn does not endure grave budget cuts. x Building Relationships -- We helped on several challenging issue management projects outside our traditional scope of work, and helped build stronger relationships for the City with organizations that frequently create challenges and opportunities for Auburn. Those projects involved outreach to the following groups: newly elected members of the state legislature, lobbyists and consultants working on projects with other entities that potentially benefit or harm Auburn, Sound Transit board members and senior management, Port of Seattle commissioners and senior staff a variety of elected council members and staff from the King County Council, and senior executives at Puget Sound Energy. WORK PLANNED FOR 2012: In 2012, we plan on working with the City of Auburn on the following projects and issues: x The federal and state budget climates demand a different approach in the coming years, the City will need a robust plan to actively engage funding agencies in its projects to be successful securing funds. We will work with the City of Auburn to strategize on the FY 2013 opportunities to include funding for: x Regional Tri-trails project; x Regional Training Center and Firing Range for law enforcement; x Completion of the Historic Post Office Sale; and x Game Farm Park x We will continue to work with the City on federal funding opportunities through the Water Resources Development Act. x We will continue our work with the City on water management issues around flooding – whether Howard Hansen Dam, FEMA reimbursement, or levee certification. x We will work to advance the City’s priorities as reauthorization of SAFETEA-LU makes its way through the legislative process. This legislation has the potential to provide funding for Auburn transportation projects. Seizing those opportunities will require a strategic and aggressive lobbying approach that we look forward to helping you manage and execute. x We will continue to monitor bills and provide strategic guidance and counsel on engaging with the congressional delegation on rail and Amtrak issues. x We will continue to monitor any legislative and regulatory activity related to the Indian Gaming Regulatory Act. DI.F x We will continue to promote the expansion of key relationships in the region, DC and local staff of Members of Congress, senior staff and commissioners at the Port of Seattle and to regional political appointees (FEMA, EPA, NOAA Fisheries and HHS). x We will continue ongoing strategic discussions with City staff regarding these and other issues of significance to Auburn. CONCLUSION Your federal team very much enjoys the opportunity to work on behalf of Auburn. We have had great success together, and we are looking forward to a productive 2012. Thank you for your business and for the time you have invested with us. We look forward to working with you throughout the year on these and other key projects for the City.

The following provides a high level summary of the City's financial performance. Further detail can be found within the attached financial report. The September 2011 status report highlights City revenues and expenditures and is based on financial data available as of October 25, 2011. Sales tax reported in September is for business activities that occurred in July 2011. General Fund: The general fund accounts for all of the City's financial resources except those required by statute or to be accounted for in another fund. The General Fund is the City's largest fund and is used to account for the majority of City services. As of the end of September, General Fund revenue collections totaled $37.1 million, and compares to year-to-date budget of $35.5 million and were sufficient to meet expenses of $36.7 million. Total General Fund revenues for the City at the end of September are $1.6 million higher than budget due to relatively stronger than anticipated collections in property and sales taxes, electric utility taxes and building permit fees. The City's sales taxes totaled $11.1 million and are 2.4% higher than last year. Improvement in retail activity was noted in all areas with the exception of construction and services which remain weak. Consumer confidence continue to reflect concerns over stubbornly high unemployment rates, a weak housing market, and most recently concerns over the financial crisis in Europe. Expenditures for the General Fund were $4.1 million below budget at the end of September. This is primarily due to unspent budget for retirement and long term care along with timing of payments for SCORE, debt service payments interfund transfers and under expenditures in professional services. Enterprise Funds: The City's eight enterprise funds account for operations with revenues primarily provided from user fees, charges or contracts for services. At the end of September the Water fund recognized a modest operating income as a result of seasonal increase in irrigation usage during the late summer months. The Sewer fund ended this period with an operating loss due to declining revenues as a result of lower water consumption during the first half of the year and timing of payments to Metro for sewer services. Stormwater revenues are on target and are sufficient to meet expenses. AUBURN * MORE THAN YOU IMAGINEDDI.H While Golf Course revenues improved compared to the same period 2010, reflecting favorable weather conditions, revenues in total remain below year-to-date 2010 levels and 2011 budgeted levels with the fund reporting a slight net operating loss as of September. Cemetery program revenues were higher than the same period last year but were not sufficient to erase a year-to-date operating loss. A request to transfer $200,000 from the Cumulative Reserve Fund will be submitted by the Finance Department for inclusion in the forthcoming final 2011 budget amendment to Council (November 2011). Internal Service Funds: Internal Service Funds provide services to other City departments and include functions such as Insurance, Facilities, Information Services, and Equipment Rental. At the end of the August, revenue from charges assessed to internal client departments was sufficient to meet expenses. Year to date expenses for the insurance fund included payment of the annual insurance premium and will be offset by allocations to various departments that will occur throughout the remainder of the year. Investment Portfolio: The City's total cash and investments at the end of September was $105 million and compares to $110 million in August.

The report represents financial data available as of October 25, 2011. The budgeted year-to-date revenues and operating expenses are primarily based on the collection/disbursement average for the same period of the two prior years. The previous table summarizes the General Fund revenues and expenditures. At the end of September, General Fund revenues totaled $37.1 million and is slightly greater compared to the same period of 2010 due to increased revenues from sales tax, utility tax and building permits. General Fund revenue highlights include: - Property taxes totaled $6.9 million and are almost equal to the level collected for the same period last year. - Sales taxes totaled $11.1 million, are slightly higher compared to collections as of September 2010. Review of sales tax activity by sector show improvements in all sectors with the exception of construction and services, which is below the same period last year due to a one-time sales tax adjustment in 2010. - Developmental service fees, culture and recreational charges for services and fines and penalties, primarily from photo enforcement showed declines over the previous year. General Fund expenses at the end of September totaled $36.7 million compared to $36.9 million for same period 2010. When compared to budget, General Fund expenses were 10.2% below expectations. Highlights include: - Timing of intergovernmental payments for SCORE accounted for the majority of the variance against budget. Currently there is an estimated $437,600 billing from SCORE for September and additional $220,500 from King County for June through September services that will be posted in October and November. - Police expenditures are low compared to budget due to savings from staff vacancies. - Streets expenditures were below budget due to pavement marking maintenance expense that is typically spent later in the year. - Non departmental was below budget primarily due to unspent budget for retirement benefits, debt service payments, SCORE start up transition costs and the timing of transfers out that are anticipated to occur during the last quarter of 2011. The combined total of property tax, sales/use tax, utility tax, gambling, and admissions tax provide 76% of all resources supporting general governmental activities. The following section provides detail information on these sources. Year-to-date collection at the end of September is $6.9 million, reflecting the majority of the first half 2011 property tax payments, and is slightly higher than targeted revenues. The majority of property tax revenues are collected during the months of April and October, coinciding with the due date for County property tax billings. 2 DI.H $0.0 $2.0 $4.0 $6.0 $8.0 $10.0 $12.0 $14.0 JanFebMarAprMayJunJulAugSepOctNovDec 2011 budget 2011 actual to date 2010 actual Sales taxes are running slightly ahead of the previous year’s pace. Year-to-date sales tax revenue totaled $11.1 million and compares to a year-to-date budget of $10.7 million. Sales taxes include Streamlined Sales Tax Mitigation payments of $1,493,061 received through the end of 3rd quarter. Total estimated Streamlined Sales Tax Mitigation for 2011 is $1,965,470 but the actual amount the City will receive from the State is reduced by taxes received from companies that have voluntarily complied with the new destination based sales tax. While sales tax returns have improved slightly over the previous year, concerns over persistently high unemployment, housing prices, and the financial crisis in Europe continue to dampen overall consumer sentiment and the pace of the economic recovery in the short term. $0.0 $2.0 $4.0 $6.0 $8.0 $10.0 $12.0 $14.0 $16.0 JanFebMarAprMayJunJulAugSepOctNovDec 2011 budget 2011 actual to date 2010 actual *Includes Sales Tax Mitigation prorated monthly. 3 DI.H The following table breaks out the City’s base sales tax excluding Criminal Justice, Annexation Credit and Streamlined Sales Tax Mitigation by major business sectors.

Water sales totaled $6.3 million compared to $6.9 million for the same period last year. While water usage in September increased in September reflecting outdoor water usage by irrigation customers, water sold continue to trend below 2010 levels. As shown in the following chart, water sales and consumption in 2011 is trending below prior year levels. Despite a rate increase of 7% effective January 1, 2011, the decline in water consumption more than offset the effect of the increase in rates. Although water sales increased during the month of August and September, overall sales for 2011 will likely remain below 2010 levels for the remainder of the year. Finance will present an analysis of the financial condition of the water fund as part of the overall City Utility funds financial forecast and update in mid October. Golf Course operating revenues at the end of September totaled $1.2M and is almost equal for the same period in 2010. This revenue is low compared to year-to-date budget of $1.3 million, due to a decline in the level of golfing activity during the first half of the year. Although recent weather conditions have improved and resulted in 5,179 rounds played for September 2011 (vs. 4,630 in 2010), year-to-date rounds played are currently running about 3% below 2010 levels (40,336 rounds played in 2011 vs. 41,760 rounds in 2010).

The Facilities Fund revenues of $2.9M cover expenses totaling $2.0M (including $437,500 in debt service related to the annex building). Expenses are low compared to budget due to professional services, utilities and repairs and maintenance that are anticipated to be spent later in the year. 18 DI.H Equipment rental fund balance of $10.2M includes $4.3 M in fixed assets net of depreciation which primarily consists of the City’s fleet vehicles.
