why the word "industrial"was added to the description and purpose of fhe
_
Page 5 of 13
Stuck River Road and Mount Rainier Vista Special Plan areas, P/T#71.
Principal Planner Dixon explained that the recommended amendment is in
relationship to a privately initiated Comprehensive Plan amendment
application thaf the City received fhis year to embark on the process of
preparation of a special area plan for the Stuck River Road and Mount
Rainier Vista Special Plan areas. Dizon statedthat these initial text
amendments will:set 4he'stage for future plan preparation and identifies the
future land uses to be studied within the special plan areas.
Chairman Wagner pointed out that the word "industrial" in not included on
page 14-21 of the Comprehensive Plan. Principal Planner Dixon stated that
the word was added at the Planning Commission Hearing at the request of
both the applicant and the City.
The Mayor and Chairman Wagner discussed the reason as to why the
applicant and the City requested that "industrial" be inciuded.
Principal Planner Dixon stated that the applicanYs testimony at the hearing
was that they were supportive of inclusion of industrial land uses and
planning commission agreed with the �ecommendation for the potential
range of uses 3hat could be considered for study in that future special area
plan effort. Dixon pointed out that when the special area plan is finally
prepared to be incorporated into the City?s Comprehensive Plan, it would
require an additional Planning Commission Hearing and City Council action
to add it in the future.
Dixon responded that the Comprehensive Plan notebooks will be updated
prior to future action 6y the Committees and Council, adding "industrial"to
page 14-21 , following a question asked by Chairman Wagner.
Principal Planner Dixon said that the purpose of this proposed text
amendment is to allow for the potential uses for the area.to be evaluated
and studied. The proposal do.es not change the colored map designation, in
response to a comment made tiy Chairman Wagner against industrial uses
being allowed in such a large area.
Chairman Wagner stated that the text recommendation now opens up an
additional 300 acres:to be considered f.or industrial use and spoke against
that. Principal Planner Dixon responded that the evaluation of industrial land
uses could resultin a more narrow scope on the type of industrial uses that
are allowed in the special plan area. Dixon used the Lakeland Hills South
area as an example of a large master planned area subject to a special
area plan.
The Committee and staff continued discussion the recommended text
amendment_Chairman Wagner spoke against opening up.an additional 300
Page 6 of 13
acres to industrial development.
As an example of how the future development could be phased, Principal
Planner Dixon described the reclamation process that has already been
started in the area.
Chairman Wagner spoke about reconsidering the amendment to limit the
industrial uses only to the areas with existing industrial use; the mining
areas. Dixon pointed out the part of the amendment is gea,red toward
determining what the extent, location and type of industrial might be
appropriate..
The Committee and staff discussed the history of the special plan area and
that the purpose is to establish the appropriate type and manner of
development.
Principal Planner Dixon explained that the purpose of the discussion is to
share with the Committee the progress of the Planning Gommission's
recommendations on the Comprehensive Plan map and text amendments
and the Council can choose to go with the Commission's recommendations
or not. The recommendations are not going to Council for action until
December 5, 2011. Mayor Lewis asked that Chairman VUagner's
recommendations to limit the potential industrial uses be taken to the
Pianning and Community Development Committee at their 11-28-11
Meeting.
Chairman Wagner noted a difference between the text changes
emphasizing manufac#uring uses and the summary of the same issue
provided in staff memo related to P/T#10: Planning Director Snyder stated
that the difference is attr'ibutable to Planning Commission recommendation
that staff looks at the potential to use incentives to encourage and facilitate
transition of areas in the City away from warehouses and distribution uses.
In relation to P!f#5 and the Gity's Capital Facilities Plan, Chairman Wagner
spoke about the importance of investing in community building amongst
diverse cultures through,the development of public facility
buildings. Chairman Wagner asked staff to include an additional goal in
Chapter 2 that states the City will try to enhance the community and
enhance the inclusion of new residents. Mayor Lewis agreed.
Also in relation to P/T #5 and the City's Capital Facilities Plan page 17
Planning DirectorSnyder and Principal Planner Dixon addressed the
concerns of Chairman Wagner regarding GMA regulations and the City's
effort to improve the Level of Service (LOSj.along corridors and at
intersections. ChairWagnerwanted to ensure thatJanguage reflects use of
iMersection and corridor LOS which it does.

Also in relation to P/T#5 Chairman Wagner suggested including the
Engineering funds for projecis #6 (S 277th St—Aubum Way North to Green
River Bridge) and #8 (A St NW phase 2) in order to complete some
preliminary engineering and begin applying for grants, referencing page 22
of the Capital Facilities Plan. Chair VNagner also commented that Project
#4 (I St NE) will be influenced by the development agreement.
Chairman Wagner verified with Planning Director Snyder that there were no
changes made to the Bicycle Task Force language amending the
Transportation Plan P/T#6.
Chairman Wagner asked if the Climate Protection and Air Quality section is
_ _ _
in response to the carbon footprint study. Principal Planner Dixon answered
that the section is an effort to build on the inver�tory that the City has
already completed and puts some policy guidance in place P!T#9.
Vice-Chair Peloza spoke in favor of P/T# 9 which supports the enyironment
and energy efficiency and that it mirrors the Nation League of Cities
policies. Vice-ChairFeloza.asked if staff reviews the National League of
Cities policies. Planning Director Snyder stated that Environmental Planner
Anderson reviewed a suite of different policy statements by different
organizations,'in which the National League of Cities is included.
B. Resolution No. 4765 (Snyder)
A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Auburn, Washington
authorizing the Mayor and City Clerk to execute a Memorandum of
Agreement with Ceradimm, LLC replacing and superseding the Master
Development Agreemenf with Alpert International, LLLP previously
approved by passage of Resolution No. 4663
Planning Director Snyder explained that the language in the agreement has
been updated. The new language is represented in Section 3. The Planning
and Gommunity Development Committee did recommend adoption of the
revised Resolution No: 4765.
Snyder explained the revisions to the language in Section 3.
Planning Director Snyder answered that a 30 day time frame is an industry
standard for the amount of time provided for communication between finro
parties during a land transaction, in response to a question asked by Vice-
Chair Peloza regarding the last paragraph of page 69 or 82.
C. Traffic Signal Timing (Para)
Traffic Operations Engineer Nutter presenied information regarding the
traffic signals in the City and the basics of signal timing to the Committee.
Nutter stated that there are 91 operating traffic signals in the City and 66
Page 8 of 13
are remotely accessible from the central signal control system, ITS.
Traffic Operations Engineer Nutter explained that traffic signal coordination
plans are strongly influenced by dynamic conditions such as, corridor
speeds, traffic signal spacing, congestion, traffic volumes, pedestrian
volumes, traffic signal cycle lengths, signai phasing and intersection
geometry.
Using a diagram of a generic intersection, Traffic Operations Engineer
Nutter demonstrated a typical 8 phase signaf operation for the
Committee. Nutter rev'iewed signal timing and cycle lengths. Staff uses
modeling software to set signal timing and the timing is based on the
required traffic movements at an intersection and their traffic
volumes. Assistant Direcfor/City Engineer Selle clarified that software is
used for modeling to seTthe basic timing plan and then the timings are
programmed into the computer that runs the signal, in response to a
question asked by Vice-Chair Peloza. Chairman Wagner asked how long
the City has been using the software, Synchro. Traffic Operations
Engineers answered fhat the City has been using Synchro for over 15
years, since the software was first released. Selle explained that Synchro is
a very common software used industry wide and that staff continues to
monitor the industryto see if better software has been developed, in
response to a question asked by Vice-Chair Peloza.
Traffic Operations Engineer Nutter explained howsignal timing is calculated
and coordinated between intersections taking into account multiple
intersections in a corridor, intersection geometry, different pedestrian
crossings, etc. Assisfant Director/City Engineer Selle explained that when
staff is reviewing timing for individual intersections, they are not giving
preference to North/South or EasUVUest directional traffic, staff is trying to
make the intersection function efficierrtly taking into consideration all of the
traffic volumes, in response to a question asked by Vice-Chair Peloza
regarding the timing along the Auburn Way corridor.
Chairman Wagner commented that ifthe signal timing is calculated using
just traffic volume and not queue length then there is preference being
giving to the commuter routes because those routes have the highest
volume counts. Chairman 1Nagner asked if the Synchro software will take
into consideration queue lengths at intersections. Traffic Operations
Engineers Nutter said that tfie software:wilf show queue lengths when
modeling several intersections in multiple infersections. Selle stated that if
signals are not timed based on traffic volumes then it can negatively affect
access to adjacent properties as queue lengths on higher volume streets
will be longer in length and in duration.
Traffic Operations Engineer Nutter discussed the factors that impacts signal
timing, such as, that not every signal has Video detection and pedestrian
Page 9 of 13
volumes. Nutter reviewed the different scenarios caused by pedestrian
crossings and volumes.
Traffic Operations Engineer Nutter spoke about how emergency vehicle
preemptions affect signal timing. Nutter stated that when the signal timing
is interrupted by emergency vehicles it can take up to 15 minutes to
readjust and get back into progression. CFiairman Wagner asked from how
far away are the emergency vehicles detected bythe signals. Nutter
answered the distance is approximately 2 blocks and the vehicles can
potentially trigger 3 or 4 signals at a tirrie.
Other factors that impact signal coordination include congestion and
queuing on major streets and timing changes that may be made to other
signals along the same corridor. Assistant Direc[or/City Engineer Selle
discussed the far reaching implications to the entire signal system when
seemingly minor timing changes are made to one signal movement.
Traffic Operations Engineer Nutter reported that the Manual for Uniform
Traffic Control DeVices has increased the amount of time required to allow
for pedestrian crossings which will in turn impact signal timing.
The Committee and staff discussed howpermissive and protected lefts
affect signal timing. Chairman Wagner asked how staff decided whether or
not left turns should 6e protected. Traffic Engineer Para answered that it is
a balance of safety and include such factors as the volume of left tums
versus the volume of through traffic and collision history are considered
when making a decision.
Chairman Wagnerasked if there is anything besides emergency vehicles
that can cause a signal synchronization change. Traffic Engineer Para
answered that detection failures and loop failures can also impact signal
timing management. Staff discussed how the weather and vehicle color can
affect detection by the older cameras.
Assistant Director/City Engineer Selle discussed how complaints regarding
signal time are investigated and followed up on by staff, in response to a
question asked by Chairman Wagner.
Chairman Wagner asked if the detection cameras can evaluate queues at
intersections. Traffic Operations Engineer Nutter explained that the
detection cameras are set similar to the loops, in multiple detection zones.
Chairman Wagner asked how many of the intersections were equipped with
older detection cameras and how many had rriore current detection
cameras. Traffic Operations Engineer Nutter answered that there are about
10 intersections that need updated cameras. Nutter stated that staff is
_ working on.replacing the cameras on the 15thStreet NW/Auburn Way N .
Page 10 of 13
and 8th Street NE/Auburn Way N intersections.
Chairman Wagner asked for staff to present the Committee with addiUonal
information on how signal timing coordinates with Level of Service (LOS)
goals. Assistant Director/City Engineer Selle stated that staff will present
more material on LOS in January 2012.
D. Striping and Pavement Marking Contract (Para)
Traffic Engineer Para summarized the contracting procedure used forthe
Citywide Striping and Payement Marking contracts.
Para stated that the City has been using King County for the striping project
since 2008 and in 2011 the City also used Pierce County to complete work
south of the White Rivec. Both agencies did a very good job and there were
no complaints about the work.
Traffic Engineer Para reported that, based on preliminary calculations, King
County provided a better value to the City.
Traffic Engineer Para stated that King County is equipped with high-end
paint trucks that proyide extremely high productivity and value to the
City. Para also said that the County has 6een responsive to customer
complaints and has been extremely responsive and flexible to City
requests. Director powdy pointed out that the City has not had to answer to
any claims.
Chairman Wagner asked what the concernswere when private contractors
did the striping. Traffic Engineer Para answered that fhere were some
issueswith the Contractor's quality control, noYgetting enough beads in the
paint, not controlling the traffic to prevenYcars from tracking paint, and lack
of flexibility. Director powdy added that fhe painf used by the private
contractor was of a lower quality and was more easily tracked along the
roadway by vehicles.
Assistant Director/City Engineer Selle commented that contracting with King
County also saves staff time and man hours because staff does not have to
prepare the project forthe formal bid process; administer the contract,
provide irispection, issue oFiange orders; and manage the
construction. Selle pointed out that King County has demonstrated that they
can work fairly independentlyand dotfie guality of work that the City
expects at a good price.
Chairman Wagner asked wha,t the total contractbeiween the two counties
was in the previous year. 'fraffic Engineer Para answered
$150,000.00. Directorpowdy spoke about the advantages of splitting the
work between Pierce and King Counties, especially during a wet summer
where dry days suitable for painting are limited.
Page 11 of 13
Chairman Wagner asked how staff decides which streets get
str'iping. Traffic Eng'ineer Para answered that he used the aerial
photographs,of the Gity and chose all of the streets thathad paint on them
and noted that the�e are some lowervolume roads that generally do not get
. striped. Chairman Wagner suggesfed"a set of criteria 6e developed for
striping.
Chairman Wagner stated that he is supportive of the staff saving time and
getting a better product by contracting the work to King and Pierce
Counties.
E. Capital Project Status Report (Gaub)
Item8—CP1006�- Lakeland Hills Reservoir 6:Chairman Wagner asked if
the coating inside and outside is underway. Assistant City Engineer Gaub
answered that the inside coating is currently underway but outside is not
because the contractor needs to install containment due to the wet
weather. The containment will begin going up next week and then coating
the outside will continue.
Chairman Wagner asked when the reservoir will go online. Assistant City
Engineer Gaub s#ated that the reservoir will probably not be online until
early in 2012.
Item 12—CP0916 —West Valley Highway —SR18 to W Main: Chairman
Wagner stated that the treatment for the drainage ditches looks nice and
asked when the s'ignal will be installed. Assistant City Engineer Gaub
answered that.the signal will probably be completed in late December 2011
and that staff is currently working on completing the streetJighting.
Item T4 — C207A—A Street NW Corridor—_Phase 1 : Assistant City
Engineer Gaub stated that fencing has tieen removed and staff has been
___ .
communicating with the Post Office and has made some suggested
changes to their interior layout of their parking lot, in response to a question
asked by Chairman 1Nagner. Assistant City Engineer Gaub reported that the
parking stalls are still at a 90 degree angle but the drop-offbox was moved
so cars would not queue up on A Street. Chairman Wagner strongly
suggested that the parking stalls be at an angle and asked that staff
continue to suggest that to the Post Office.. '
Assistant City Engineer Gaub stated that the contract currently does not
include Gcurb to prevent left tums out of the Post Office parking lot on 3rd'
Street, in response to a'question asked by Chairman Wagner.
Item 25 — CP1119—Auburn Way South Corridor Improvements— Fir Street
SE to Hemlock Street SE: Chairman Wagner asked if there is grant money
