Roll Call Members present: Chair Bill Peloza, Vice Chair Wayne Osborne, Member John Partridge. Staff present: Mayor Pete Lewis, Chief of Police Bob Lee, Assistant Chief of Police Bill Pierson, Parks, Arts & Recreation Director Daryl Faber, Finance Director Shelley Coleman, City Attorney Dan Heid, Assistant City Attorney Steve Gross, Auburn Municipal Airport Manager Jamelle Garcia and Police Secretary/Scribe Terry Mendoza. Others present: Citizen Scot Pondelick and Auburn Reporter Representative Robert Whale. B. Announcements C. Agenda Modifications Resolution No. 4987 was added as an action item. This is a Resolution of the City Council of the City of Auburn, Washington, authorizing the Mayor and City Clerk to execute an agreement between the City of Auburn and Century West Engineering Corp., for civil engineering services at the Auburn Municipal Airport. Finance Director Shelley Coleman briefed the Committee on the contract that Assistant City Attorney Steve Gross and Auburn Municipal Airport Manager Jamelle Garcia have been working on since June 2013. Every five years we are required to fulfill grant assurances by conducting a selective process to reevaluate engineering services. The advertisement was completed in June with the selection review taking place in July. There were two firms interviewed and Century West was selected. As such, this Resolution allows us to enter into a contract with Century West for design work at the airport. Vice Chair Osborne requested clarification on Exhibit A as listed in the Resolution. City Attorney Dan Heid stated that the Contract is Exhibit A and it will be notated correctly on the Final document. Committee discussion followed. Page 1 of 3 MS.1 Page 6 of 324 Vice Chair Osborne moved to forward Resolution No. 4987 to full Council for consideration. Member Partridge seconded. Chair Peloza concurred. MOTION PASSED: 3-0 II. CONSENT AGENDA A. August 12, 2013 Minutes Vice Chair Osborne moved to accept the Minutes as presented. Member Partridge seconded. Chair Peloza concurred. MOTION PASSED: 3-0 III. DISCUSSION ITEMS A. Animal Control Licensing Program (Coleman) Finance Director Shelley Coleman provided an update to the Committee. At the request of Chair Peloza, Director Coleman distributed updated charts showing the Sales and Revenue data separately. Year to date revenue through July shows we are at $90,855.00 compared to our budget goal of $96,000.00. Vice Chair Osborne and Director Coleman agreed that we will exceed our goal amount this year. Our year to date number of licenses sold through July totals 3,057 as compared to King County's 2012 total of 3,535 for the same time frame. Additionally, a chart was provided illustrating how the loan of $102,548.00 would be repaid to the City of Auburn. The loan was advanced to the Auburn Valley Human Society (AVHS) at the beginning of 2013. Committee discussion followed. B. Resolution No. 4984 (Faber) Mayor Lewis led the discussion by advising the Committee that the information provided on the (green) Agenda was incorrect. The original intent of Resolution No. 4984 was to express support for veteran recognition measures in the City of Auburn and identify methods through which such recognition will be addressed. This draft Resolution now defines a process for approval of requests for structures in City parks and subject to approval by the City Council as to which structures would be approved and where the structures would be located. It also references a City policy that is intended to define the City's position with regards to government speech and its rights to control such structures in its City parks. A few corrections to the draft Resolution were identified and the appropriate changes will be included in the final version. City Attorney Dan Heid distributed a sample of this same type of Monument Policy from the City of San Jose, California, as a reference for the Committee. Staff is recommending that the City put a policy in place to cover requests for Page 2 of 3 MS.1 Page 7 of 324 monuments to be built on City property: otherwise, the City becomes vulnerable to a parties' argument that their request does not conflict with the City's non- the matter. C. Police Equipment (Lee) Assistant Police Chief Bill Pierson briefed the Municipal Services Committee (MSC) on new officer uniform and equipment costs. The information provided was separated based on items needed specifically for the Basic Law Enforcement Academy and items needed post Academy. Portable radios are currently being replaced through King County and the costs per radio have increased due to advances in technology and software. Protective vests are replaced every five years which is a requirement of the manufacturer. Information on the itemized vehicle costs - which are per car, not officer - were provided with the assistance of Maintenance and Operations staff. The Auburn Police Department (APD) currently has 28 patrol cars and since the APD is a solo patrol agency there is one officer assigned to a car per shift. Vehicles are replaced based on mileage and possibly additional costs, depending on extent of damages. Committee discussion followed. D. Project Matrix The following updates were identified for the Project Matrix: Item 24P: Review date changed to 6/9/14. Item 27P: Review date changed to 9/23/14. IV. ADJOURNMENT The meeting was adjourned at 4:20 p.m. The next regular meeting is scheduled for Monday, September 9, 2013 at 3:30 p.m. in Conference Room 3 of City Hall, 25 West Main Street, Auburn, WA.

Page 1 of 6 PCD.1 Page 10 of 324 Motion carried unanimously. 2-0 III. DISCUSSION ITEMS A. Resolution No. 4984 (Faber) Parks, Arts, and Recreation Director Daryl Faber stated that currently the City of Auburn has no existing policy to address donated items, such as, monuments, memorials, and structures located in City Parks and City property. The City does have existing policy through the Parks, Arts, and Recreation Department, to address donated plaques, trees, benches and other items within the City’s parks. City Attorney Dan Heid provided a sample policy used by the City of San Jose, California that addresses and accomplishes several aspects of policy that would benefit the City. Two additional handouts were provided, a revised Resolution No. 4984 and an example of a Proposed Flag Pavilion located at the Les Gove Community Campus. Municipal Services Committee asked staff to provide a copy of the Proposed Flag Pavilion that may be located at the Less Gove Community Campus. Revised Resolution No. 4984 specifies that the proposed policy is more comprehensive and addresses structures, monuments, and memorials for the entire City. The Resolution would also provide direction to preserve the City's rights to control what permanent structures are erected in City Parks and/or on City Property. Through recent discussions, the City recognized if an individual wanted to donate a monument, plaque, or other memorial in a location other than the City’s parks there is no policy in place for consideration or approval. The Committee agreed that the revised Resolution No. 4984 would benefit the City and provide a process for consideration and approval of donated structures, monuments, and memorials throughout the City. Attorney Heid stated the City is at the beginning stages of discussing this policy and staff will be returning with a revised Resolution No. 4984, to address and accomplish the City's goals that would benefit the entire City regarding donated structures, monuments, and memorials. B. Resolution No. 4985 (Faber) Parks, Arts and Recreation Director Faber provided background information on Resolution No. 4985, a resolution of the City Council of the City of Auburn, Washington, authorizing the Mayor and City Clerk Page 2 of 6 PCD.1 Page 11 of 324 to execute an agreement between the City of Auburn and King County accepting grant funds for youth sports facilities at Lea Hill Park. The grant award was for $60,000.00 and the City's portion of the grant match is $12,500.00. Green River Community College is partnering with the City to install the new sports facility. The Committee expressed gratitude for Green River Community College's participation in the development of the new Lea Hill Park. Committee was supportive of Resolution No. 4985. C. Comprehensive Downtown Parking Management Plan (CDPMP) (Yao/Chamberlain) Planner Gary Yao provided background information on the draft Comprehensive Downtown Parking Management Plan (CDPMP). The CDPMP primarily addresses parking policy within the Downtown Urban Center (DUC). After providing an overview of the plan’s purpose and approach Planner Yao asked the Committee if the CDPMP addressed the issues raised regarding parking in Downtown Auburn and if the proposed near term, short term, and long term recommendations are on track. The Committee expressed that the CDPMP addresses these goals and provides an academic understanding of the City’s parking, which is critical to the City’s existence. The CDPMP provides understanding and can be used as a guide for future decisions moving forward. The Committee thanked Planner Yao for his hard work. To provide greater readability of the plan, Planner Yao stated the final CDPMP will have more graphics and pictures. Planning Services Manager Chamberlain stated the next steps will be to seek comment from Public Works and Police on the CDPMP and return to the Committee with any additional modifications. D. ZOA13-0003 - Student/Rental Housing Code Amendments (Chamberlain) Planning Services Manager Elizabeth Chamberlain provided background information on ZOA13-0003 and reviewed the Planning Commission recommendations from the public hearing on item ZOA13-0003, Student/Rental Housing Code Amendments held August 20, 2013. Ordinance No. 6477 amends Title 5, Business and Licenses Regulations, and Title 18, Zoning, related to rental housing. Staff confirmed the date on Ordinance No. 6477, Page 2 of 13, the date Page 3 of 6 PCD.1 Page 12 of 324 the Washington State Department of Commerce approved the City's request for expedited review will be inserted, August 26, 2013. Vice-Chair Holman invited any audience member wanting to provide a public statement to come forward: Russ Campbell, 31606 126th Ave. SE, Auburn. Mr. Campbell expressed that he believes allowing a six (6) month period for the communal residence to become compliant with the amended code, Title 18 and Title 5 is unreasonable. He believes there are many landlords already operating a student/rental without complying with the Auburn City Codes and providing additional time would just extend the time a landlord can operate a non-compliant business. Mr. Campbell asked the Committee to consider changing the six (6) month amortization schedule to December 31, 2013 for businesses to become compliant to the amended code. The Committee agreed to revise the six (6) month amortization period, under 18.31.130, and requiring existing communal residences to become compliant by December 31, 2013. After reviewing and discussing the amendments, Committee determined they would move ZOA13-0003, Ordinance No. 6477 amending Title 5, Business and Licenses Regulations, and Title 18, Zoning, from Discussion to Action. Member Wales moved and Vice-Chair Holman seconded to recommend City Council adopt ZOA13-0003, Ordinance No. 6477 amending Title 5, Business and Licenses Regulations, and Title 18, Zoning as amended. Motion unanimously carried. 2-0 E. ZOA13-0005 - Amendments to C-1, Light Commercial Zone (Chamberlain) Planning Services Manager Elizabeth Chamberlain provided the staff report on ZOA13-0005, and reviewed the Planning Commission recommendations from the public hearing on item ZOA13-0005 held August 20, 2013. Ordinance No. 6478 amends Section 18.57.030 of the Auburn City Code related to the C-1 Light Commercial Zone and mixed-use development standards. Staff provided a handout to Committee, an email from Nicole Petrino- Salter, a Lea Hill resident expressing support of the proposed amendments and the Planning Commission recommendations. Page 4 of 6 PCD.1 Page 13 of 324 Ms. Chamberlain informed the Committee that the date the State of Washington Department of Commerce, Growth Management Services, has confirmed the City was approved for expedited review and the date on page two of Ordinance No. 6478 will be inserted. After reviewing the proposed amendments, the Committee determined they would move Ordinance No. 6478 amending Section 18.57.030 of the Auburn City Code related to the C-1 Light Commercial Zone and mixed-use development standards from Discussion to Action. Member Wales moved and Vice-Chair Holman seconded to recommend City Council adopt ZOA13-0005, Ordinance No. 6478 amending Section 18.57.030 of the Auburn City Code related to the C- 1 Light Commercial Zone and mixed-use development standards as amended, adding the date on page two of the Ordinance. Motion unanimously carried. 2-0 F.

Chairman Wagner asked why staff prefers to keep the new storm line within the City’s Right-of-Way.

Project Engineer Truong reported that the engineer’s estimate for the project is a little over $2M, in response to a question asked by Chairman Wagner.

Chairman Wagner asked for additional information regarding capacity during large storm events. Member Osborne asked if any property needed to be acquired for the project.

M Street SE Re-Channelization (Para) Transportation Manager Para stated that in response to Vice-Chair Peloza’s request, he reviewed the collision reports. Transportation Manager Para reported that there is no history of backing related collisions along the stretch of M Street SE between 8th Street NE and Auburn Way South. Transportation Manager Para reviewed the background information leading to staff’s proposal to eliminate the currently allowed on-street parking along M Street SE. Transportation Manager Para identified that properties that would probably be most impacted by the elimination of on-street parking. Vice-Chair Peloza shared photographs that he took of M Street SE which indicated no vehicles parked on M Street SE. Page 6 of 9 PW.1 Page 22 of 324 Transportation Manager Para stated that, with the Committee’s concurrence, staff will mail letters to the affected property owners. The Committee supports the proposal. Mayor Lewis spoke about the possibility of renaming M Street SE, I Street NE, and Harvey Road in the future, as the route is poised to become a major corridor. The Committee discussed the future of M Street. Mayor Lewis and the Committee requested that temporary no-parking signage be posted prior to re-striping the roadway. Assistant Director/City Engineer Selle stated that there will also be traffic revision signage. The Committee and staff discussed removing the yellow paint on the curbs along M Street SE where it currently exists to avoid confusion. C. Cascade Water Alliance Agreement (Dowdy) Utilities Engineer Repp distributed copies of the current water agreement with Tacoma Water. Director Dowdy discussed the difference between the permanent water agreement and the finite water supply agreement with the Committee. Reviewing the permanent agreement, Chairman Wagner asked how the peaking factor of 1.33 was calculated. Director Dowdy stated that the peaking factor is based on Cascade’s contract with Tacoma Water. Utilities Engineer Repp stated that the credit can not be assigned, however the water can be purchased and then resold. The Committee and Mayor Lewis discussed how price could be negotiated if the water were to be sold to another party. Chairman Wagner stated that the permanent agreement appears to be ready to move forward for action. The Committee concurred. Director Dowdy and Utilities Engineer Repp addressed questions, asked by the Committee, regarding the temporary agreement. Director Dowdy reviewed the terms of the agreements with the Committee. The Committee agreed that both agreements are ready to be brought back to the Committee and Council for action. D. Capital Project Status Report (Gaub) Page 7 of 9 PW.1 Page 23 of 324 Item 4 – C201A – M Street Underpass: Chairman Wagner asked when the review of phase 2 of the M Street project will be brought to Committee.

Item 7 – CP1120 – Lea Hill Safe Routes to School Improvements: Assistant City Engineer Gaub reported that the work on 116th Avenue, in front of Rainier Middle School and next to Hazelwood Elementary will be completed prior to school starting. The intersection improvements on 124th and 312th will take until October to complete due to long lead signal components. Item 21 – CP1024 - AWS and M Street SE Intersection Improvements: Chairman Wagner asked if the completion of the underpass will cause staff to rethink the intersection design. Assistant City Engineer Gaub answered that staff does not expect the traffic route changes from M Street re-opening will change the plans for the intersection and the intersection improvements are more likely to be needed with the re-opening. Assistant City Engineer Gaub also noted that the intersection improvements are TIB grant funded with a specific scope and project limits and more work at the intersection would need to be an additional project. Chairman Wagner asked if Item H on the Action Tracking Matrix would be included in the M Street intersection improvements. Transportation Manager Para answered that Item H on the Action Tracking Matrix is separate from Project No. CP1024 and if it was decided that the eastbound connections between M Street SE and Auburn Way S via 17th Street should be closed, it would be a separate project. Item 33 – CP1224 – 2013 Local Street Reconstruction: Vice-Chair Peloza asked about the attitudes of residents on H Street NE. Mayor Lewis stated that he has had no complaints and the residents are very pleased that the work is being completed.

Vice-Chair Peloza made an inquiry about installing a traffic signal at A Street and 37th Street. Director Dowdy answered that the signal project is being added to the Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) at the upcoming Council Meeting. Assistant Director/City Engineer Selle noted that the project is being added to the TIP so grant applications may be made for the project. Vice-Chair Peloza informed staff that there are still problems with the chipseal on 105th Place/108th Avenue. Director Dowdy stated that what staff is learning is that intersections with heavy truck and /or bus traffic are not good candidates for double chipseal but the treatment works on hillsides road grades, in response to a question asked by Chairman Wagner.

The General Fund revenues totaled $27.7 million and exceeded the budget by $1.4 million primarily due to increases in building permit revenues, sales tax revenues and City utility tax revenues. General Fund expenditures were below budget by $3.0 million, primarily due to timing of payments. During the month of June, 460 pet licenses were sold, compared to 466 in 2012. To date, 2,619 licenses have been sold generating $77,295 in revenue, compared to 2,991 licenses sold in 2012. In response to questions regarding levels of pet sales, Director Coleman responded that the approximate $240,000 annual payment to the Auburn Valley Humane Society was the amount suggested by the Auburn area veterinarians to sustain an Auburn animal control and licensing program. It is estimated that King County sold approximately 7,000 licenses in 2012. The 2013 Budget revenue goal is $96,000. Director Coleman noted the Sewer Fund ended with a $392,100 operating loss (compared to an operating loss of $812,300 the previous year, excluding Metro). The Golf Course Fund ended the period with an operating loss of $239,200 compared to an operating loss of $296,100 for the same period last year and reflects an improvement in the year-to-date rounds played (22,195 compared to 20,089 for the same period last year). Page 2 of 4 FN.1 Page 28 of 324 Mayor Lewis noted the Cemetery sales have slowed and the status of the fund is being watched closely. All enterprise funds are under a cost-of-service study. Finance Director Coleman explained the comparison of 2013 year-to- date budget versus actual is a comparison of the 2013 year-to-date to a three-year rolling average of actual budget. Finance Director Coleman explained the Non-departmental Fund includes the City's reserves, pending retirement funds, contingencies, LEOFF 1 medical, and segregated funds for particular projects. Member Holman noted court, probation and SCORE expenses are in a favorable savings status. Finance Director Coleman also added next year the City can anticipate savings of an additional $1.5 million in jail costs and $1.5 million in court costs. The transition costs for King County District Court are included in the Non- departmental Fund. Vice Chair Wales noted an increase in sales tax collection from the manufacturing industry compared to the warehousing industry classification.

CALL TO ORDER Deputy Mayor Nancy Backus called the meeting to order at 5:00 p.m. in Council Chambers located at Auburn City Hall, 25 West Main Street in Auburn. Councilmembers present included Deputy Mayor Backus, Rich Wagner, Bill Peloza, John Partridge, Largo Wales, Wayne Osborne, and John Holman. Department Director and staff members present were Human Resources and Risk Management Brenda Heineman, Public Works Director Dennis Dowdy, Multimedia Manager Dana Heineman, Public Affairs and Marketing Manager Glenda Carino, Economic Development Manager Doug Lien, City Attorney Dan Heid, Parks, Arts and Recreation Director Daryl Faber, Assistant Police Chief Bill Pierson, and Deputy City Clerk Shawn Campbell. II. DISCUSSION ITEMS A. Wellness Committee Director Heineman presented the Wellness Program and introduced committee members present at the meeting. She recognized Employment Manager Eileen Sherlock for an outstanding job in completing the Well City Application. In order to qualify for a two percent discount on medical insurance premiums, the City must receive the Association of Washington Cities Well City Award. The Committee's 2013 Goals were developed from the results of a 2012 wellness questionnaire. The Committee developed activities to meet the needs of employees and fulfill the requirements for the Well City application. Councilmembers committed to participating on the Wellness Committee. B. Auburn History Project Mayor Lewis introduced David Spangler. Mr. Spangler has been contracted by the City to compile historical data regarding the Page 1 of 4 CA.B Page 45 of 324 progression of the City of Auburn. Mr. Spangler worked together with the late David Grambush and other town historians to compile information for the Auburn History Project. Mr. Spangler is in the process of developing three interactive maps for the downtown area of Auburn from 1904, 1928 and 1941. The maps will show businesses, street names and locations, and the flow of the White and Stuck Rivers during each of the three time periods. C. City of Auburn Strategic Plan Deputy Mayor Backus introduced the concept of a strategic plan. The Council would recognize five to ten items that are budget priorities. The staff and Council would focus efforts on those items. Having a strategic plan can assist the City in securing grants and additional funding and also helps focus efforts during tough economic times. Councilmember Osborne said it is important to have a wide variety of citizen input. Councilmember Peloza stated the process would move faster if the City has a task force to work on this project including a Council representative. Mayor Lewis stated he liked the idea of having representatives from all parts of the City, but he has concerns with a councilmember being an active participant on the task force. Councilmember Wagner shared a concern about the task force being taken over by professional interests. He requested extra diligence be used to ensure the task force is made up of a diverse group of people. Councilmember Holman listed the core competencies for a city; not easy for competitors to imitate, can be reused widely for more products, services and markets and it contributes something to the end consumer. Deputy Mayor Backus stated a strategic plan would assist the Council in maintaining the trust and confidence of the citizens. Councilmember Wales said the Council needs to step back and let a diverse group of people look at a strategic plan in an unbiased fashion. The plan will need to be flexible with the changing needs of the City. Councilmember Wagner stated the City will need to hire someone to compile the data from the task force. The goals need to be measurable by results. Councilmember Partridge stated including citizens in the discussion builds ownership in the plan within the community. The plan needs to include market driven ideas that include developers and business owners also. The City can set the strategic principals and let the market put in the details. Page 2 of 4 CA.B Page 46 of 324 Mayor Lewis stated the City would need to hold public meetings that are both demographically and culturally diverse in nature, along with simply talking to people on the street. Deputy Mayor Backus stated the goals would be set that represent the priorities of the citizens. There would be both short term and long term goals. D. Port to Port Initiative Mayor Lewis shared a map that showed the commercial transit routes of regional significance. The ports of Puget Sound connect the Valley Cities, they are the second largest industrial area on the west coast and the fourth in the nation. The State of Washington needs to improve the infrastructure of the roads to remain competitive with the other ports around the nation, most of which have already invested money in their ports recently in order to remain competitive. Councilmember Wagner noted that Burlington Northern and Union Pacific Railroads should be included in the discussion. Councilmember Holman said the National League of Cities has an active resolution the help the ports prepare for the Panamax ships including funding for fast freight corridors. Mayor Lewis stated the Ports have not historically worked together. The Port of Tacoma and the Port of Seattle are both represented in the Valley Cities Association. Both ports are beginning to recognize the importance of compiling a unified plan to be competitive in the marketplace. E. Code Enforcement Overview Development Services Manager Tate provided the Council with a Code Enforcement overview. The code enforcement staff interact with people in all areas of the community and cultures. The City has to ensure any new structure fits within the specific standards for the area. There are community vision and pollution issues that code enforcement must enforce. Councilmember Peloza recognized the effectiveness of the City's Wall of Shame program. F. Transit Now Community Shuttle Director Dowdy provided Council with a map of the City shuttle bus service routes and described the services offered. Mayor Lewis is working with the Muckleshoot Tribe on how to integrate the tribes Page 3 of 4 CA.B Page 47 of 324 public transit schedule with the City's so citizens can get to and from all areas of the City. Director Dowdy stated the funding is approximately $100,000.00 per year and the Lakeland shuttle is an additional $116,000.00. The funding comes from the Arterial Street Fund. Councilmember Peloza requested the Transit, Trails and Transportation Committee talk about Sunday shuttle operations and public transportation from the west hill area. Mayor Lewis stated the City is looking at a bigger plan that will give services to more areas creating a more robust public transit system. Councilmember Wales asked how the areas of service are determined. Director Dowdy said this configuration was the initial determination. The routes met the needs of the City and buses in these areas. Councilmember Partridge asked who receives the fees paid by the riders. Director Dowdy said the fees go directly to Metro. The City, Pierce County and Metro share the cost of service. G. Council Retreat Deputy Mayor Backus stated once dates have been confirmed a list of possible dates for a Council Retreat will be sent out to get Councilmembers input. Councilmember Peloza requested the retreat be local. III.

Staff discussed and presented an earlier draft of the code amendment language to the Planning Commission on July 2, 2013 at their regular meeting. The proposed critical areas regulations were subsequently modified in response to comments received from the Washington State Department of Ecology. The Planning Commission conducted a public hearing on the proposed amendments on August 20, 2013 and forwarded a recommendation for approval based on staff recommendation. The code amendments were reviewed and discussed by the Planning and Community Development Committee of the City Council on August 26, 2013 at their regular meeting and the Committee forwarded a recommendation of approval to the full city council.

The adoption was a culmination of a series of extensive workshops and hearings over more than a 9-month period with the Planning Commission and City Council. The regulations have been in effect now for 8 years, and have been working well and proven effective. One subject area of the critical areas that has been evolving since the time of the City’s adoption of these regulations however, is the way in which mitigation is accomplished, especially mitigation related to wetlands. Where mitigation or compensating for the impact is appropriate, there is generally a movement and desire in the environmental regulating agencies to move to an eco-region approach to addressing the impact and mitigation. In the case of wetlands, this is generally based on a watershed area or drainage basin—replacing the resource within the same contributory surface water area of a river or lake as the impact. This watershed basis to evaluating the location of impacts and the location of the mitigation sites takes into account the natural environment of the resource and the fact that environmental resources do not always neatly fit into or observe jurisdictional or political boundaries. Auburn City Code Section 16.10.110 establishes the standards, criteria, and plan requirements for development activities that result in mitigation of impacts to critical areas. While this section applies to all types of critical areas, it is most commonly implemented in relation to wetlands. This is because other types of critical areas tend to be more geographically dependant. ACC 16.10.110.B states that “Mitigation Sites shall be located in the City.” And it is recommended that this language be modified so that the location of mitigation sites can be more flexible and can be located outside of the City. This may also include a location outside the city through a mitigation bank or fee in-lieu. The change would allow the mitigation site to be located outside the City for those projects that are allowed to impact critical areas. While the City’s critical area regulations promote avoidance of impacts to critical areas and on- site mitigation as preferred approaches, where these are not viable, mitigation within the same watershed is a commonly accepted approach. Different portions of the City are located within the watershed of the Green and White Rivers, each of which extend substantially beyond the city limits which means there is potential for pursing mitigation opportunities outside the city. The change would also increase consistency with the approach utilized by other agencies that have jurisdiction for wetland impacts, such as the Army Corps of Engineers, thus making it easier for applicants to meet the mitigation requirements of various levels of government that have jurisdiction for regulating wetlands for the same project. Findings of Fact 1. In summary, the intent of the proposed code amendment is to provide greater flexibility in the administration of the city’s existing critical area regulations contained in Auburn City Code (ACC) Section 16.10. 2. The City of Auburn contains numerous areas that can be identified and characterized as critical or environmentally sensitive. Such areas within the city include wetlands, streams ORD.A Page 78 of 324 Agenda Subject: Agenda Subject: Proposed amendment to ACC 16.10.110 related to mitigation standards, criteria and plan requirements to allow mitigation outside the City (File No. ZOA13-0004) Date: August 28, 2013 Page 3 of 8 (and rivers), wildlife habitat, geologic hazards, ground water protection areas, and flood hazard areas. 3. The City finds that these critical areas perform a variety of valuable and beneficial biological and physical functions that benefit the city and its residents. Alteration of certain critical areas may also pose a threat to public safety or to public and private property or the environment. The city therefore finds that identification, regulation and protection of critical areas are necessary to protect the public health, safety and general welfare. 4. The critical area regulations and other sections as incorporated by reference contain standards, procedures, criteria and requirements intended to identify, analyze, and mitigate potential impacts to the city's critical areas, and to enhance and restore degraded resources where possible. The general intent of these regulations is to avoid impacts to critical areas. In appropriate circumstances, impacts to specified critical areas resulting from regulated activities may be minimized, rectified, reduced and/or compensated for, consistent with the requirements of this chapter. 5. It is the further stated intent of the city’s critical area regulations to: 1. Comply with the requirements of the Growth Management Act (Chapter 36.70A RCW) and implement rules to identify and protect critical areas and to perform the review of development regulations required by RCW 36.70A.215; 2. Develop and implement a comprehensive, balanced and fair regulatory program that avoids impacts to critical resources where possible, that requires that mitigation be performed by those affecting critical areas, and that thereby protects the public from injury, loss of life, property or financial losses due to flooding, erosion, landslide, seismic events, soil subsidence, or steep slope failure; 3. Implement the goals and policies of the Auburn comprehensive plan, including those pertaining to natural features and environmental protection, as well as goals relating to land use, housing, economic development, transportation, and adequate public facilities; 4. Serve as a basis for exercise of the city's substantive authority under the State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA) and the city's environmental review procedures, where necessary to supplement these regulations, while also reducing the city's reliance on project-level SEPA review; 5. Provide consistent standards, criteria and procedures that will enable the city to effectively manage and protect critical areas while accommodating the rights of property owners to use their property in a reasonable manner; 6. Provide greater certainty to property owners regarding uses and activities that are permitted, prohibited, and/or regulated due to the presence of critical areas; 7. Coordinate environmental review and permitting of proposals involving critical areas with existing development review and approval processes to avoid duplication and delay pursuant to the Regulatory Reform Act, Chapter 36.70B RCW; ORD.A Page 79 of 324 Agenda Subject: Agenda Subject: Proposed amendment to ACC 16.10.110 related to mitigation standards, criteria and plan requirements to allow mitigation outside the City (File No. ZOA13-0004) Date: August 28, 2013 Page 4 of 8 8. Establish conservation and protection measures for threatened and endangered fish species in compliance with the requirements of the Endangered Species Act and the Growth Management Act requirements to preserve or enhance anadromous fisheries, WAC 365-195-925; 9. Alert members of the public, including appraisers, assessors, owners, potential buyers or lessees, to the development limitations of critical areas and their required buffers. 6. The City adopted its critical area regulations in 2005 by Ordinance No. 5894. 7. The proposed amendment of the city’s critical area regulations is exempt from the “Notice of Application” procedures under ACC 14.02.070, “Project permit or project permit application” and ACC 14.02.040, “Development regulations”, since the adoption or amendment of critical area regulation is a type of “development regulation” that is not a "Project permit" or "project permit application". The Notice of Application is required only for project permits and not development regulations. 8. The code amendment is subject to environmental review process under the Washington State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA). A Determination of Non-Significance (DNS) was issued July 22, 2013 and the city observed a fourteen-day public comment period. The City did not receive any comments in response to notice of the public comment period. 9. Pursuant to RCW 36.70A.106, the proposed critical area code amendment was sent to the Washington State Department of Commerce and other state agencies as required for the state review of modifications of development regulations. The amendments were sent on June 27, 2013. The City requested expedited review, as allowed by their procedures. The Department of Commerce granted expedited review and acknowledged receipt on July 1, 2013. 10. In response to submittal of the proposed critical area amendment to the Washington State Department of Commerce and other state agencies, the city received comments from the Washington State Department of Ecology, Critical Area Ordinance Coordinator and Alternative Mitigation Specialist. The comments made some edits to clarify under what circumstances mitigation is allowed to be constructed off-site and added some language to allow more mitigation options. After critical review, the city incorporated their comments. 11. The general approach of these code amendments was discussed with and reviewed by the Planning and Community Development Committee of the City Council on May 28, 2013 at their regular meeting. The Committee was supportive of the general approach. 12. Staff discussed and presented an earlier draft of the code amendments language to the Planning Commission on July 2, 2013 at their regular meeting. The proposed critical areas regulations were subsequently modified in response to the Washington State Department of Ecology comments received.

The Planning Commission conducted a public hearing on the proposed amendments on August 20, 2013 and forwarded a recommendation for approval. 14. The code amendments were reviewed and discussed by the Planning and Community Development Committee of the City Council on August 26, 2013 at their regular meeting and the Committee forwarded a recommendation of approval to the full city council. 15. A discussion of the amendments was conducted by the Finance Committee on September 3, 2013. 16. The public hearing notice was published on August 8, 2013 in the Seattle Times newspaper at least 10 days prior to the Planning Commission public hearing scheduled for August 20, 2013. 17. The following conclusions support the proposed amendments to Chapter 16.10.110, scheduled for the Planning Commission’s August 20, 2013 public hearing with a staff recommendation of approval. Conclusions 1. These code amendments are supported by the City of Auburn’s Comprehensive Plan. The Comprehensive Plan contains several goals, objectives, and policies that promote flexibility in the City’s development regulations and prescribe the approach to development regulations. The Comprehensive Plan also has sections that address the protection and management of environmentally-sensitive or critical area resources. The following goals, objectives, and policies excerpted from the Comprehensive Plan relate to this proposal: 2. Excerpt from : CHAPTER 1 – PLAN BACKGROUND “GOAL 2 – FLEXIBILITY: To provide predictability in the regulation of land use and development, especially where residential uses are affected, but to also provide flexibility for development through performance standards that allow development to occur while still protecting and enhancing natural resources, cultural resources and critical lands and in overall compliance with this Comprehensive Plan.” “Discussion: Predictability of land development regulation is important to both existing and future property owners and to new development. It assures property owners that adjacent properties will develop in a consistent manner and it helps new development to plan for their development based on knowing what is allowed and what is not. Since all parcels are not identical, however, it is helpful to have some flexibility in land development regulation. While a variance can sometimes resolve some of these issues, regulations which provide some flexibility in the form of performance standards can help to provide development which better meets the goals and policies of this Comprehensive Plan rather than ORD.A Page 81 of 324 Agenda Subject: Agenda Subject: Proposed amendment to ACC 16.10.110 related to mitigation standards, criteria and plan requirements to allow mitigation outside the City (File No. ZOA13-0004) Date: August 28, 2013 Page 6 of 8 strict adherence to a set standard established in the zoning ordinance.” (Emphasis added) “A discussion of issues and polices related to this goal can be found in Chapter 2: General Approach to Planning.” Complies: This goal sets out that all of the City’s regulations should be designed to provide predictability while maintaining the ability for flexibility. By providing a wider range of methods critical area mitigation is accomplished this code amendment provides predictability and consistency. Also, in furtherance of this goal, the code amendment provides that mitigation banking or fee in lieu programs may also be used to satisfy mitigation. On-site mitigation also continues to be an option. 3. A similar theme as the goal in Chapter 1 is expressed in Chapter 2 as follows: CHAPTER 2 – GENERAL APPROACH TO PLANNING “GOAL 2 – FLEXIBILITY: To provide predictability in the regulation of land use and development, especially where residential uses are affected, but to also provide flexibility for development through performance standards that allow development to occur while still protecting and enhancing natural resources, and critical lands and in overall compliance with this Comprehensive Plan.” “Objective 2.4. To provide for the development of innovative land management techniques to implement this Comprehensive Plan.” “Policies: “GP-17 Flexible land development techniques including, but not limited to, clustering and planned unit developments (PUDs) for the development of residential, commercial, and industrial properties shall be considered to implement this comprehensive plan.” “GP-18 Flexibility should be provided to encourage compact urban development, to protect critical areas and resource lands, to facilitate the use of transit or non-motorized transportation, and to encourage the redevelopment of underutilized or deteriorated property.” “GP-19 Any flexibility should be easy to administer and should provide the community with an adequate level of predictability.” Complies: This goal, objective, and related policies address the need for flexibility in critical area regulations while addressing the importance of protection and management of critical areas. 4. Excerpt from : CHAPTER 9 – ENVIRONMENT ORD.A Page 82 of 324 Agenda Subject: Agenda Subject: Proposed amendment to ACC 16.10.110 related to mitigation standards, criteria and plan requirements to allow mitigation outside the City (File No. ZOA13-0004) Date: August 28, 2013 Page 7 of 8 “GOAL 18. ENVIRONMENT AND NATURAL RESOURCES To maintain and promote a safe and healthy environment and preserve the quality of life and to protect the area's most unique, sensitive and productive natural resources. To encourage natural resource industries within the city to operate in a manner which enhances, (rather than detracts from), the orderly development of the City.” “Objective 18.4 To continue to enhance and maintain the quality of important wetland resources in the City and region.” “Policies:” “EN-27 The City recognizes the important biological and hydrological roles that wetlands play in providing plant and animal habitat, protecting water quality, reducing the need for man-made flood and storm drainage systems, maintaining water quality, and in providing recreational, open space, educational and cultural opportunities. The City will consider these roles and functions in all new development and will also pursue opportunities to enhance the existing wetland system when these multiple benefits can be achieved.” “EN-28 The City recognizes that wetlands provide varying degrees of biological and hydrological functions and values to the community depending on the size, complexity and location of the individual system, and that the overall degree of functions and values should be considered when reviewing proposals which impact wetlands. In a similar manner, the levels of protection afforded to a wetland shall be consistent with its existing function and values. The City shall continue to promote policies and practices of enhancing the wetlands that are hydraulically connected to the river systems to improve fish resources and aquatic habitat.” “EN-29 The City shall consider the impacts of new development on the quality of wetland resources as part of its environmental review process and shall require appropriate mitigation and monitoring measures of important wetland areas. Such mitigation may involve conservation, enhancement or restoration or replacement of important wetlands, and provisions for appropriate buffering. The goal of the mitigation should be no net loss of wetland functions and values. A permanent deed restriction shall be placed on any wetlands created or enhanced to ensure that they are preserved in perpetuity.” “EN-30 Wetlands which are associated with a river or stream, or provide significant plant and animal habitat opportunities are recognized by the City as the most important wetland systems, and shall receive the highest degree of protection and mitigation through conservation, enhancement or relocation measures. Wetlands which are limited in size, are isolated from major hydrological systems, or provide limited hydrological or plant ORD.A Page 83 of 324 Agenda Subject: Agenda Subject: Proposed amendment to ACC 16.10.110 related to mitigation standards, criteria and plan requirements to allow mitigation outside the City (File No. ZOA13-0004) Date: August 28, 2013 Page 8 of 8 and animal habitat opportunities may be considered by the City for development and displacement in conjunction with appropriate mitigation.” Complies: This goal, objective and the related policies address the need for flexibility in the approach to critical area regulations and seek to balance the importance of protection and management of critical areas commensurate with the quality of the resource. These policies, which are specifically related to wetlands, address opportunities for enhancement of wetland resources as provided through mitigation, address that mitigation should be designed to replace functions and values lost due to impacts, that mitigation may involve conservation, enhancement or restoration or replacement of wetlands and that the degree of protection and mitigation will vary with the quality or the resource.

That section 16 10 110 of the Auburn City Code entitled "Mitigation standards, criteria and plan requirements" is hereby amended to read as follows. 16 10.110 Mitigation standards, criteria and plan requirements A. Mitigation Standards Adverse impacts to critical area functions and values shall be mitigated Mitigation actions shall generally be implemented in the preferred sequence identified in this chapter Proposals which include less preferred and/or compensatory mitigation shall demonstrate that: 1 All feasible and reasonable measures as determined by the department have been taken to reduce impacts and losses to the critical area, or to avoid impacts where avoidance is required by these regulations, 2 The restored, created or enhanced critical area or buffer will be as viable and enduring as the critical area or buffer area it replaces, and 3. No overall net loss will occur in wetland or stream functions and values The mitigation shall be functionally equivalent to or greater than the altered Ordinance No. 6476 August 27, 2013 Page 2 of 5 ORD.A Page 86 of 324 wetland or stream in terms of hydrological, biological, physical, and chemical functions. B Location and Timing of Mitigation 1 The preferred location of mitigation is on-site when ecologically preferable to other identified alternatives. Mitigation may be allowed off-site eaty when it is determined by the department that on-site mitigation is not srieRtifisally alp ecologically preferable to other identified alternatives OF PraGt Gal due to p-hy6=iGa4-featic es of the property, or, in the case of wetlands, where the affected site is identified as appropriate for off-site mitigation in the Mill Creek Special Area Management Plan (SAMP), April 2000 The burden of proof shall be on the applicant to demonstrate that mitigation cannot be provided on-site or is consistent with the SAMP When on site If it is determined that on-site mitigation is not ecologically preferable to other identified alternatives, mitigation shall be provided in the same drainage basin as the permitted activity on property owned, secured, or controlled by the applicant. or provided by the applicant using alternative mitigation options such as mitigation banking or in-lieu fee programs. The where %;ueh mitigation is--pr-astisal-and beRef sial should result in no net loss to the critical area functions impacted and associated r-eseurseswatershed Mitigate teS-6".11—be IOGated within the Gity Where mitigation is authorized to be located outside the City limits, the Applicant shall assure to the satisfaction of the Department that other requirements of this Chapter will be met including but not limited to, monitoring and maintenance 2. In-kind mitigation shall be provided except when the applicant demonstrates, and the department concurs, that greater functional and habitat value can be achieved through out-of-kind mitigation 3 When wetland, stream or habitat mitigation is permitted by these regulations, the mitigation project shall occur near an adequate water supply river, stream, ground water) with a hydrologic connection to the critical area to ensure a successful mitigation or restoration A natural hydrologic connection is preferential as compared to one which relies upon manmade or constructed features requiring routine maintenance 4 Any mitigation plan shall be completed before initiation of other permitted activities, unless a phased or concurrent schedule that assures completion prior to occupancy has been approved by the department. C Wetland Replacement Ratios 1 Where wetland alterations are permitted by the director, the applicant shall enhance or create areas of wetlands in order to compensate for wetland losses The compensation shall be determined according to acreage, function, type, location, timing factors and projected success of enhancement or creation 2 The following acreage replacement and enhancement ratios shall be implemented, however, the department may vary these standards if the applicant can demonstrate and the director agrees that the variation will provide adequate compensation for lost wetland area, functions and values, or if other Ordinance No. 6476 August 27, 2013 Page 3 of 5 ORD.A Page 87 of 324 circumstances as determined by the director justify the variation Except as provided for Category IV wetlands in subsection (C)(3) of this section, in no case shall the amount of mitigation be less than the area of affected wetland The director may at his discretion increase these standards where mitigation is to occur off-site or in other appropriate circumstances 3 Category IV wetlands can either be mitigated by either (a) meeting one of the replacement ratios (*see following table), or (b) implementing mitigation which ensures no net loss of values and functions of the larger ecosystem in which the critical area is located Wetland Creation Ratio Wetland Enhancement Wetland Category (Acres) Ratio (Acres) Acres Created or Enhanced Acres Impacted) Category 1 6.1 12:1 Category II Forested 3 1 6.1 Scrub/Shrub 2.1 4 1 Emergent 2:1 4,1 Category III Forested 3.1 6 1 Scrub/Shrub 2.1 4 1 Emergent 21 4:1 Category IV* 1.25 1* 2.5 1* Ord 5894 § 1 , 2005 ) Section 2.

Earth a. General description of the site (circle one): Flat, rolling, hilly, steep slopes, mountainous, other The City of Auburn is characterized by a relatively flat valley floor bordered by steep hillsides and upland plateaus overlooking the valley See Section D, Nonproject Action. b. What is the steepest slope on the site (approximate percent slope)? The slopes vary in the city and Potential Annexation Areas (PAA), but in some locations slopes associated with the valley walls reach 100%. See Section D, Nonproject Action. c. What general types of soils are found on the site (for example, clay, sand,gravel, peat, muck)? If you know the classification of agricultural soils,specify them and note any prime farmland. See Section D, Nonproject Action. The valley floor is made up primarily of soils of the Oridia, Renton, Snohomish, and Briscott series. These soils are poorly drained and formed in the alluvium (river sediments) associated with the White and Green rivers. These are considered good agricultural soils, though in many areas, are not well-drained. There is no designated farmland within the City of Auburn. The hillsides and plateaus are made up of primarily Alderwood associated soils and a small amount of Everett associated soils (U S. Department of Agriculture, 1973). Alderwood soils are moderately well drained gravelly sandy loams 20-40 inches deep. Beneath these soils is glacial till with low permeability Roots penetrate easily to the hardpan layer Runoff potential is slow to medium. Erosion and slippage hazard is moderate, ranging to severe on steeper slope phases The Everett series consists of somewhat excessively drained soils that are underlain by very gravelly sand. These soils formed in very gravelly glacial outwash deposits under conifers. They are found on terraces and terrace fronts and are gently undulating to moderately steep. d. Are there surface indications or history of unstable soils in the immediate vicinity? If so, describe. See Section D, Nonproject Action. Many factors affect slope stability including soil type, parent material, slope and drainage. These factors can be further affected by human intervention such as slope alteration, and vegetation removal. The city has identified categories of geologic hazard areas and inventoried these areas. Maps of the erosion and landslide hazard areas are provided as Maps 9.6 and 9.7, respectively in the City's Comprehensive Plan. e. Describe the purpose,type, and approximate quantities of any filling or grading proposed. Indicate source of fill. See Section D, Nonproject Action. Not applicable. The proposed amendments to the Auburn City Code are non-project actions, no site alteration, construction, or earthwork is proposed. ORD.A Page 95 of 324 ENVIRONMENTAL CHECKLIST (CONTINUED) TO BE COMPLETED BY APPLICANT f. Could erosion occur as a result of clearing, construction,or use? If so, generally describe. See Section D, Nonproject Action. Not applicable. This is a non-project action. g. About what percent of the site will be covered with impervious surfaces after project construction (for example, asphalt or buildings)? See Section D, Nonproject Action. Not applicable. The action does not involve site specific development proposal. h. Proposed measures to reduce or control erosion, or other impacts to the earth, if any: See Section D, Nonproject Action. This is a non-project action, no site specific erosion control is proposed. However, the existing comprehensive plan includes numerous policies to reduce or control erosion through the use of best management practices, landscaping requirements, limitations on alteration of steep slopes and other critical areas protections. Impacts to earth will be identified and, if necessary, mitigated during the development review process as specific development proposals are made that might be associated with these plan amendments. The city also has adopted a City Engineering Design Standards Manual and a City Construction Standards Manual that address erosion impacts (ACC Chapter 12.04 as referenced by ACC 15.74). 2. Air a. What types of emissions to the air would result from the proposal (i.e., dust, automobile, odors, industrial wood smoke)during construction and when the project is completed? If any, generally describe and give approximate quantities if known. See Section D, Nonproject Action. Not applicable. This is a non-project action. b. Are there any off-site sources of emissions or odor that may affect your proposal? If so, generally describe. See Section D, Nonproject Action. Not applicable. This is a non-project action. c. Proposed measures to reduce or control emissions or other impacts to air, if any: See Section D, Nonproject Action Not applicable This is a non-project action. ORD.A Page 96 of 324 ENVIRONMENTAL CHECKLIST (CONTINUED) TO BE COMPLETED BY APPLICANT 3. Water a. Surface: 1) Is there any surface water body on or in the immediate vicinity of the site including year-round and seasonal streams, saltwater, lakes, ponds,wetlands)? If yes, describe type and provide names. If appropriate, state what stream or river it flows into. The proposal is a city-wide nonproject action - See Section D, Nonproject Action. The major bodies of water within Auburn are the Green River, the White River, Mill Creek, Bowman Creek, and White Lake. The city has conducted an inventory of wetlands within the city limits. These are shown on Map 9 3 of the City's Comprehensive Plan. The Green and White Rivers in Auburn are Type S streams designated as Shorelines of the State in the City of Auburn Shoreline Master Program. 2) Will the project require any work over, in, or adjacent to (within 200 feet)of the described waters? If yes, please describe and attach available plans. See Section D, Nonproject Action. Not applicable. This is a non-project action. 3) Estimate the amount of fill and dredge material that would be placed in or removed from surface water or wetlands and indicate the area of the site that would be affected. Indicate the source of fill material. See Section D, Nonproject Action. Not applicable. This is non-project action. 4) Will the proposal require surface water withdrawals or diversions? Give general description, purpose, and approximate quantities if known. See Section D, Nonproject Action. Not applicable. This is non-project action. 5) Does the proposal lie within a 100-year floodplain? If so, note location on the site plan. See Section D, Nonproject Action. Not applicable.

Describe the general size of the system, the number of such systems,the number of houses to be served (if applicable), or the number of animals or humans the system(s) are expected to serve. See Section D, Nonproject Action. Not applicable. This is non-project action. c. Water runoff(including stormwater): 1) Describe the source of runoff(including storm water)and method of collection and disposal, if any (include quantities, if known). Where will this water flow? Will this water flow into other waters? If so, describe. See Section D, Nonproject Action. Not applicable. This is non-project action. 2) Could waste materials enter ground or surface waters? If so, generally describe. See Section D, Nonproject Action. Not applicable This is non-project action. d. Proposed measures to reduce or control surface, ground, and runoff water impacts, if any: See Section D, Nonproject Action. Not applicable. This is non-project action. The most likely type of critical area to be affected by this change is mitigation for wetland impacts. The code will continue to contain a restriction to limit relocation of mitigation site to the same watershed. 4. Plants a. Check or circle types of vegetation found on the site: X_ deciduous tree: alder, maple, aspen,other X_ evergreen tree: fir, cedar, pine, other X_ Shrubs X Grass X Pasture X crop or grain X wet soil plants: cattail, buttercup, bulrush,skunk cabbage, other X water plants: water lily, eelgrass, milfoil, other X other types of vegetation See Section D, Nonproject Action b.

Also, the city actively engages in planning for public facilities. The Comprehensive Water Plan and Comprehensive Sewer Plan were adopted by the city in 2001 The ORD.A Page 105 of 324 ENVIRONMENTAL CHECKLIST (CONTINUED) TO BE COMPLETED BY APPLICANT Comprehensive Drainage Plan was adopted in 2002. A new six year Capital Facilities Plan was adopted in 2012 (2013-2018). These plans ensure that utility impacts are adequately monitored and evaluated on a project level and city-wide basis C SIGNATURE The above answers are true and complete to the best of my knowledge. I understand that the lead agency is relying on them to make its decision. Signature: Date Submitted: ORD.A Page 106 of 324 ENVIRONMENTAL CHECKLIST(CONTINUED) TO BE COMPLETED BY APPLICANT D SUPPLEMENTAL SHEET FOR NONPROJECT ACTIONS Do not use this sheet for project actions) Because these questions are very general, it may be helpful to read them in conjunction with the list of the elements of the environment. When answering these questions, be aware of the extent the proposal or the types of activities likely to result from the proposal, would affect the item at a greater intensity or at a faster rate than if the proposal were not implemented. Respond briefly and in general terms. 1. How would the proposal be likely to increase discharge to water; emissions to air; production,storage, or release of toxic or hazardous substances; or production of noise? The proposal would not be likely to increase discharge to water, emissions to air, production, storage, or release of toxic or hazardous substances; or production of noise. The City seeks to change the city's critical area regulations to allow increased flexibility in where the mitigation is allowed to be performed or constructed as compensation for impacts to environmentally-sensitive resources. The most common critical areas to use this code provision are in relation to wetland resources since these are less geographically dependent The city's regulations currently restrict mitigation to being located only within the city limits. This location restriction was largely due to the fact that when the regulations were first drafted and adopted, the City did not previously have a critical areas ordinance and was not familiar with how all of the provisions of the regulations would work. Due to this unfamiliarity, the city sought to have a greater amount of regulatory control by requiring that the mitigation occur where the city had regulatory oversight. Since the time of the adoption of the city's first critical areas ordinance, the city has greater experience and familiarity in how mitigation is performed and the necessary oversight to ensure critical area functions are replaced. The city code language continues to require that the mitigation site be located within the same drainage basin. The change is therefore not anticipated to result in a change in the hydrologic contribution within the drainage basin. Proposed measures to avoid or reduce such increases are: The City of Auburn Comprehensive Plan contains provisions to reduce increases or emissions caused by new development. Emphasis in the Comprehensive Plan on reducing the reliance on the automobile for transportation should reduce the amount of emissions to the air Policies in the Environment Chapter also provide guidance in the review of development proposals to encourage retention of and replanting of native vegetation. This supports wildlife habitat areas, particularly near streams, as the policies assist the City in addressing adverse impacts to water quality and wildlife habitat from runoff since native plantings may require less pesticide use. Non-exempt development will be subject to SEPA requirements to evaluate and mitigate impacts related to discharges, emissions, and the release of toxic substances. Evaluation of the site specific proposals will be based on the policies of the Comprehensive Plan and appropriate mitigation will take place on a case by case basis. City development standards including but not limited to the critical areas ordinance (ACC 16.10), shoreline master program regulations (ACC 16.08), the City's Engineering ORD.A Page 107 of 324 ENVIRONMENTAL CHECKLIST (CONTINUED) TO BE COMPLETED BY APPLICANT Design Standard and Construction Standard Manuals (ACC 12.04) also provide additional protection for these types of impacts. Auburn City Code contains performance standards towards uses and activities with in the City (ACC 18.31 —Supplemental Developmental Standards). These standards regulate noise, emissions to air; production, storage, or release of toxic or hazardous substances. 2. How would the proposal be likely to affect plants, animals,fish, or marine life? It is unlikely the proposed code amendment will have any adverse effect on plants, animals, fish, or marine life. The code change seeks to provide more flexibility in where mitigation is allowed. Under the code provisions, mitigation will be allowed to be performed on-site as currently is allowed, but also off-site. The most common critical areas to use this code provision are wetland resources since there are often less geographically dependent Those animals and insects who depend the impact site (such as a wetland), that are less mobile and cannot find alternate habitat in close proximity could perish on the replacement wetland mitigation) is allowed to be constructed at a further distance from. It is the goal of the city's critical area regulations to provide replacement functions for those functions being lost due to the impact so it is not anticipated that the various functions of wetlands would be diminished or lost. The proposed amendments are not expected change the developable area of the City The proposed amendments would not introduce any new land uses in areas where they are not currently allowed. Proposed measures to protect or conserve plants, animals, fish, or marine life are: Generally, the adopted Auburn Comprehensive Plan and critical areas ordinance seek to protect and conserve plants, animals, fish, and marine life. SEPA environmental review of all non-exempt development is conducted to evaluate, reduce and avoid or mitigate impacts. The evaluation is based on the policies of the Auburn Comprehensive Plan and appropriate mitigation will take place for each future development proposal on a case-by- case basis. Policies within the Environment Chapter also provide guidance in the review of development proposals to encourage use of native vegetation and the retention of native vegetation. This should support wildlife habitat areas, particularly near streams as the policies assist the city in addressing adverse runoff impacts to water quality and wildlife habitat since native plantings may require less pesticide use. City development standards including but not limited to the critical areas ordinance and the shoreline master program regulations also provide additional protection for these types of impacts. The City would authorize the mitigation to occur off-site when the location off-site is ecologically preferable. When because of the particular circumstances of the site, the location off-site will yield a greater ecological benefit or increased wetland functions. ORD.A Page 108 of 324 ENVIRONMENTAL CHECKLIST (CONTINUED) TO BE COMPLETED BY APPLICANT 3. How would the proposal be likely to deplete energy or natural resources? There are no expected significant increases in the use of energy or natural resources resulting from the amendments being proposed. Proposed measures to protect or conserve energy and natural resources are: None specifically, as this is a non-project action. However, in addition to the provisions of the Auburn Energy Management Plan (adopted in 1986), which encourages energy conservation in public buildings, street lighting, and recycling, the comprehensive plan places an emphasis on providing for alternative methods of travel to the automobile such as transit, walking, and biking. An environmental review under SEPA of all non-exempt development will be conducted to measure the project impacts 4. How would the proposal be likely to use or affect environmentally sensitive areas or areas designated (or eligible or under study)for governmental protection; such as parks,wilderness,wild and scenic rivers,threatened or endangered species habitat, historic or cultural sites,wetlands,floodplains, or prime farmlands? The proposal is unlikely to affect environmentally sensitive areas or areas designated for governmental protection. Proposed measures to protect such resources or to avoid or reduce impacts are: The comprehensive plan and, in particular, the critical areas ordinance (ACC 16.10), seek to protect environmentally sensitive areas (wetlands, streams, geologically hazard areas, floodplain, wildlife habitat, and aquifer recharge areas) and to reduce the impacts of development on them. The Auburn Comprehensive Plan provides for the implementation of innovative land management techniques to protect these resources Among the innovative land management techniques, the Flexible Development Alternatives Chapter(ACC 18.49) includes incentives for enhancement or restoration of critical area buffers, and/or encouraging development to locate farther from critical areas than currently required by code. SERA environmental review for all non-exempt development will be conducted to evaluate impacts. 5. How would the proposal be likely to affect land and shoreline use, including whether it would allow or encourage land or shoreline uses incompatible with existing plans? Amendments can only be approved if the Applicant can assure to the city that future development is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan and its policies and related regulations. Those proposals that are not consistent with the comprehensive plan policies or other existing plans will not be approved. Proposed measures to avoid or reduce shoreline and land use impacts are: The comprehensive plan, critical areas ordinance, and other development regulations, such as the zoning ordinance and shoreline master program, seek to protect these land and shoreline resources and to reduce the effects of development on them. An ORD.A Page 109 of 324 ENVIRONMENTAL CHECKLIST(CONTINUED) TO BE COMPLETED BY APPLICANT environmental review under SEPA of all future development that is non-exempt will also be conducted to evaluate a proposal's land use and environmental impacts. 6. How would the proposal be likely to increase demands on transportation or public services and utilities? The proposal is not expected to affect the total number of housing units or the number or types of commercial developments that could be built in the City of Auburn, therefore the proposal is not expected to increase demands on transportation or public services and utilities as compared with the current zoning regulations. Proposed measures to reduce or respond to such demand(s) are: The City has adopted a six-year Transportation Improvement Program (2013-2019) that identifies projects to meet safety needs, capacity needs, access needs, projected funding. The Comprehensive Transportation Plan is an element of the City's overall Comprehensive Plan. It is the City's long-range plan for developing its transportation system over the next 15 years. This plan helps ensure that transportation impacts are adequately monitored and evaluated on a project level and city-wide basis. The City has an adopted 2013-2018 Capital Facilities Plan. Also, the city actively engages in planning for public facilities. The Comprehensive Water Plan and new Comprehensive Sewer Plan were adopted by the city in 2001 The Comprehensive Drainage Plan was adopted in 2002. A Comprehensive Transportation Plan was adopted in 2005 with updates during the 2006 Comprehensive Plan amendment cycle. These plans help ensure that utility impacts are adequately monitored and evaluated on a project level and city-wide basis. An environmental review under SEPA for all non-exempt development will be conducted to evaluate environmental impacts. Environmental impacts that must be addressed during the SEPA review process include traffic, public services, and utilities. 7. Identify, if possible,whether the proposal may conflict with local,state, or federal laws or requirements for the protection of the environment. The proposal does not conflict with local, state, or federal laws or requirements for protection of the environment. The change would increase consistency with other authorities since many county, state and federal agencies with jurisdiction for wetland impacts are allowing alternate forms of mitigation, such as in-lieu fee programs or wetland mitigation banking. Permit requirements of these other authorities often encourage applicants to pursue alternate forms of mitigation.

Some of the concerns raised include parking impacts, unpermitted conversion of garages to living space, lack of proper solid waste management, noise impacts, and an overall conversion of single family residences to rentals. A joint meeting was held between the Planning and Community Development Committee (PCDC) and the Planning Commission on August 12, 2013 where the program approach to rental housing and broad policy direction on proposed amendments were discussed. Staff took the feedback provided and prepared draft code amendments that were presented at the August 20, 2013 public hearing before the Planning Commission. Public testimony was provided and the Planning Commission recommended approval of the proposed amendments with a few minor changes. At the August 26, 2013 PCDC meeting, the Committee reviewed the proposed code amendments and recommend approval of Ordinance No. 6477 to the full City Council.

BACKGROUND AND GENERAL INFORMATION: Over the last several months a number of residents who live in the single family residential communities that are located nearby Green River Community College (GRCC) have expressed concern that they are observing a spike in rental homes in their neighborhood that are occupied by students of GRCC Their concerns include Parking impacts, Unpermitted conversion of garages to living space, Overcrowding of single family homes with too many occupants, Lack of proper solid waste management, Noise impacts, and An overall conversion of single family residences to rentals. This staff report outlines the proposed amendments and program approach to rental housing, more specifically addressed to rentals within single family neighborhoods. II. SEPA STATUS: Pursuant to WAC 197-11-800(6), non-project actions such as code amendments are not exempt from environmental review The City issued a Determination of Non-Significance August 5, 2013. The comment period ends August 19, 2013 and the appeal period ends on September 3, 2013. III. FINDINGS OF FACT: 1 In general, the intent of the proposed zoning code amendments is to address an inconsistency in the code and comments received from citizens related to student/rental housing. The City originally broke the project into two phases but through the review process ultimately determined that a holistic program approach was needed. 2. The process for zoning code text amendments is described in ACC Chapter 18.68 18.68.020 Initiation of amendments. B. Text. 1 The city council, or planning and development committee of the city council, upon its own motion may request the planning commission to conduct a public hearing to amend any portion or all of this title; provided, that text amendments that are purely administrative or procedural do not require a public hearing, nor do they require preliminary review or recommendations of the planning commission; 2. The planning commission may upon its own motion call for a public hearing to amend any portion or all of this title, with the exception of purely administrative or procedural amendments; Zoning Code Text Amendment ZOA13-0003 Staff Report to the Planning Commission August 7, 2013 Page 1 ORD.B Page 125 of 324 3. Any resident or property owner of the city may petition the city to request an amendment to the text of this title. C For the purposes of this chapter, substantive amendments shall be distinguished from procedural or administrative amendments in accordance with the following: Substantive" matters relate to regulations that define or limit what can be done in terms of conduct, use or action (e.g., what use may be made of land, what requirements apply to development, what public infrastructure may be required of certain developments), and "procedural' or"administrative" matters are those that relate to the process of how an application to take such action must be pursued (e.g., time limits for applications and appeals, what forms must be used, and where or how applications must be submitted. Essentially, "procedural' or"administrative" matters are the mechanical rules by which substantive issues may be pursued). (Ord. 6287 § 2, 2010; Ord. 6198 § 3, 2008; Ord. 4840 § 1, 1996, Ord. 4304 § 1(46), 1988; Ord. 4229 § 2, 1987 ) 18.68.030 Public hearing process. A. Text Amendments.

The planning commission shall make a recommendation to the city council who may or may not conduct a public hearing. C City Council Decision. The city council may affirm, modify or disaffirm any recommendation of the planning commission or hearing examiner with regard to amendments of the text or map of this title. (Ord. 6198 § 4, 2008; Ord. 4840 § 1, 1996, Ord. 4229 § 2, 1987 ) 18.68.040 Public hearing notice requirements. A. Text Amendments. 1 Planning Commission.

The comment period ends August 19, 2013 and the appeal period ends on September 3, 2013. As of the writing of this report, no comments have been received. 5. Pursuant to RCW 36.70A.106, the proposed code amendments outlined in this staff report were sent to the Washington State Department of Commerce and other state agencies as required for the 60-day state review required for modification of development regulations. The amendments were sent on August 5, 2013 and expedited review was requested under RCW 36.70A.106(3)(b). The Department of Commerce Zoning Code Text Amendment ZOA13-0003 Staff Report to the Planning Commission August 7, 2013 Page 2 ORD.B Page 126 of 324 acknowledged receipt on August 7, 2013. Expedited review has not been granted as of the writing of this staff report. If the expedited review request is denied then the standard 60-days applies from the submittal date of August 5, 2013. 6. Staff presented the proposed code amendment concepts and program approach to the Planning Commission and Planning and Community Development Committee at a joint meeting held on August 12, 2013 for review and discussion. 7 The public hearing notice was published on August 8, 2013 in the Seattle Times at least 10-days prior to the Planning Commission public hearing scheduled for August 20, 2013. The public hearing notice was also posted at the City's Annex Building at One East Main Street and on the City's website. 8. The following conclusions support the proposed amendment to Title 18, Zoning, and Title 5, Business and Licenses Regulations scheduled for the Planning Commission's August 20, 2013 public hearing with a staff recommendation. IV. CONCLUSIONS: 1. Pursuant to ACC Section 18.68 020, amendments of Title 18 require a public hearing before the Planning Commission with a public hearing notice published at least 10-days prior to the public hearing date. Staff Analysis: The public hearing notice was published in the Seattle Times on August 8, 2013 which is at least 10-days prior to the Planning Commission public hearing scheduled for August 20, 2013. The public hearing notice was also posted at the City's Annex Building at One East Main Street and on the City's website. 2. These code amendments are supported by the City of Auburn's Comprehensive Plan as follows: GP-2: The City should develop its plans and programs after thorough analysis of community problems, potentials, and needs. Chapter 4 — Housing: Auburn's housing strategy is for home buyers and renters of all income groups have sufficient opportunities to procure affordable housing. HO—28 The City recognizes that the development of safe neighborhoods requires the cooperation of property owners and/or their property managers. The City shall organize, educate, and assist property managers in the creation and preservation of safe neighborhoods. Staff Analysis: The proposed code amendments address rental housing within the City of Auburn, more specifically student rental housing, and deal with existing conflicts within the Auburn City Code. Staff proposes to amend the following: Zoning Code Text Amendment ZOA13-0003 Staff Report to the Planning Commission August 7, 2013 Page 3 ORD.B Page 127 of 324 Title 18—Zoning Amend the definition of family Amend the definition of dwelling Add a new definition communal residence Add a new definition owner occupied Delete the boardinghouse definition Add a new section to Supplemental Development Standards for Communal Residence Title 5— Business and Licenses Regulations Amend Rental Housing Business License section by adding licensing requirements for Communal Residence Housekeeping item changing the fiscal year to calendar year The proposed code amendments balance the allowance of rental housing within residential neighborhoods and address issues associated with rental housing that have arisen such a parking, solid waste service, yard maintenance, and noise. Particulady with the proposed amendments to Title 5, a heavier burden is placed on the ownerAandlord of the rental unit to make sure tenants are following regulations and being good neighbors within the community. If the conditions of the rental housing business license are not adhered to, the City may revoke the license and move into code enforcement action. Code enforcement procedures are outlined in Chapter 1.25 of the Auburn City Code. Staff will bring additional information regarding code enforcement procedures to the August 20, 2013 public hearing. The proposed amendments also address potential safety concerns, such as illegal garage conversions and number of bedrooms, by requiring an annual inspection of the rental unit verifying the information submitted with rental housing business license application is correct. A primary goal of the proposed code amendments is to address the situation where individual leases for each bedroom in a unit exist versus the traditional rental housing situation where there is one lease for the occupants by requiring more oversight by the landlord and requiring an annual inspection of the rental property/unit. Also as part of the overall program, the City will be adding a page to its website on rental housing with information for landlords, tenants, FAQs, a list of compliant properties, and the application forms. We will also be working with Green River Community College and request that they also include similar information on their website. V. STAFF RECOMMENDATIONIDECISION Staff recommends that the Planning Commission recommend to the City Council approval of the proposed code amendment as presented. VI.

SIGNATURE The above answers are true and complete to the best of my knowledge. I understand that the lead agency is relying on them to make its decision. OWNER/AGENT SIGNATURE: Elizabeth Chamberlain DATE SUBMITTED: August 1. 2013 Page 13 of 16 ORD.B Page 155 of 324 Environmental Checklist (continued)TO BE COMPLETED BY APPLICANT D. SUPPLEMENTAL SHEET FOR NONPROJECT ACTIONS Do not use this sheet for project actions.) Because these questions are very general, it may be helpful to read them in conjunction with the list of the elements of the environment When answering these questions, be aware of the extent of the proposal, or the types of activities likely to result from the proposal that would affect the item at a greater intensity or at a faster rate than if the proposal were not implemented. Respond briefly and in general terms. 1. How would the proposal be likely to increase discharge to water; emissions to air; production, storage, or release of toxic or hazardous substances; or production of noise? The proposed code amendments to Title 18, Zoning, and Title 5, Business Licenses and Regulations, should have a minimal change in discharging to water, emissions to air, production, storage, or release of toxic or hazardous substances or the production of noise. While the proposed code amendment could apply to undeveloped property, the City's stormwater design manual addresses stormwater discharges and the City has other regulations addressing emissions to air and hazardous substances. Proposed measures to avoid or reduce such increases are: The City of Auburn Comprehensive Plan contains provisions to reduce increases or emissions caused by new development. Emphasis in the Comprehensive Plan on reducing the reliance on the automobile for transportation should reduce the amount of emissions to the air Policies in the Environment Chapter also provide guidance in the review of development proposals to encourage native vegetation. This should support wildlife habitat areas, particularly near streams, as the policies assist the City in addressing adverse impacts to water quality and wildlife habitat from runoff since native plantings may require less pesticide use. An environmental review of all non-exempt (from SEPA) development will be conducted to evaluate and mitigate impacts related to discharges, emissions, and the release of toxic substances. Evaluation of the site specific proposals will be based on the policies of the Comprehensive Plan and appropriate mitigation will take place on a case by case basis. City development standards including but not limited to the critical areas ordinance, shoreline master program regulations, and the Design and Construction Manuals, also provide additional protection for these types of impacts. 2. How would the proposal be likely to affect plants, animals, fish, or marine life? The proposal is not likely affect plants, animals, fish, or marine life. However, as noted below, the City has development standards to provide protection for these types of impacts. Proposed measures to protect or conserve plants,animals,fish, or marine life are: Generally, the adopted Auburn Comprehensive Plan and critical areas ordinance seek to protect and conserve plants, animals, fish, and marine life. An environmental review under SEPA of all non-exempt development is conducted to measure impacts. Evaluation based Page 14 of 16 ORD.B Page 156 of 324 Environmental Checklist (continued)TO BE COMPLETED BY APPLICANT on the policies of the Auburn Comprehensive Plan and appropriate mitigation will take place on a case-by-case basis. Policies within the Environment Chapter also provide guidance in the review of development proposals to encourage native vegetation be used and/or retained. This should support wildlife habitat areas, particularly near streams as the policies assist the city in addressing adverse runoff impacts to water quality and wildlife habitat since native plantings may require less pesticide use. City development standards including but not limited to the critical areas ordinance and the shoreline master program regulations also provide additional protection for these types of impacts. 3. How would the proposal be likely to deplete energy or natural resources? Future development will use natural gas and electricity and could result in increased automobile uses. However, there does not appear to be any significant adverse increases in the use of energy of natural resources resulting from the amendments being proposed to the existing comprehensive plan over what might occur under existing plan designations. Proposed measures to protect or conserve energy and natural resources are: None specifically, as this is a non-project action. However, in addition to the provisions of the Auburn Energy Management Plan (adopted in 1986), which encourages energy conservation in public buildings, street lighting, and recycling, the comprehensive plan places an emphasis on providing for alternative methods of travel to the automobile such as transit, walking, and biking. An environmental review under SEPA of all significant development will be conducted to measure the project impacts. 4. How would the proposal be likely to use or affect environmentally sensitive areas or areas designated (or eligible or under study) for governmental protection; such as parks, wilderness, wild and scenic rivers, threatened or endangered species habitat, historic or cultural sites, wetlands, floodplains, or prime farmlands? Taken as a whole, there should not be any change in impacts from existing regulations on environmentally sensitive areas or areas designated for government protection. Regulations are in place to protect environmentally sensitive areas regardless of the use of the land or these proposed code amendments. Proposed measures to protect such resources or to avoid or reduce impacts are: The comprehensive plan and, in particular, the critical areas ordinance, seek to protect environmentally sensitive areas (wetlands, streams, geologically hazard areas, floodplain, wildlife habitat, and aquifer recharge areas) and to reduce the impacts of development on them. The Auburn Comprehensive Plan provides for the implementation of innovative land management techniques to protect these resources. An environmental review under SEPA for all non-exempt development will be conducted to evaluate impacts. 5. How would the proposal be likely to affect land and shoreline use, including whether it would allow or encourage land or shoreline uses incompatible with existing plans? Page 15 of 16 ORD.B Page 157 of 324 Environmental Checklist (continued)TO BE COMPLETED BY APPLICANT Amendments can only be approved if it can be assured that future development is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan and its policies and related regulations. Those proposals that are not consistent with the comprehensive plan policies or other existing plans will not be approved. Proposed measures to avoid or reduce shoreline and land use impacts are: The comprehensive plan, critical areas ordinance, and other development regulations, such as the zoning ordinance and shoreline master program, seek to protect these land and shoreline resources and to reduce the effects of development on them. An environmental review under SEPA of all development that is non-exempt will also be conducted to evaluate a proposal's land use and environmental impacts. 6. How would the proposal be likely to increase demands on transportation or public services and utilities? The proposed amendment could lead towards development that may increase demands on public services, the transportation network, and utilities. The City has adopted a traffic impact fee structure to address impacts to the transportation network. Proposed measures to reduce or respond to such demand(s) are: The Auburn Comprehensive Plan presently incorporates the 2013-2018 Capital Facilities Plan updated, which seeks to maintain a sufficient level of service for public services as development occurs. Also, the city actively engages in planning for public facilities. The Comprehensive Water Plan and Comprehensive Sewer Plan updates were adopted by the city in 2009 The Comprehensive Drainage Plan update was also adopted in 2009. The Comprehensive Transportation Plan was adopted in 2005 with updates during the 2006 and 2009 Comprehensive Plan amendment cycles. These plans help ensure that utility impacts are adequately monitored and evaluated on a project level and city-wide basis. 7. Identify, if possible, whether the proposal may conflict with local, state, or federal laws or requirements for the protection of the environment. The proposal does not appear to present any conflict with local, state, or federal laws or requirements. Page 16 of 16 ORD.B Page 158 of 324 Exhibit 6 ZOA13-0003 CITY Or AD-BuRN Peter B.

A little about me first: I am Robert Kent DeWitt, retired fire chief and former Asst. State Fire Marshal. I have a Bachelors degree in Fire Command Administration but, more importantly, I have an AA degree in Real Estate, which gives me some perspective on the issues related to residential real estate here in my community. I have a home in the Rainier Ridge development on Leah Hill. I purchased it about 10 years ago, close to GRCC so my daughter could attend. I started renting rooms out to other students while she was here so that she wouldn't be alone if I was off traveling (which I do a lot of as I am retired). I have continued to rent rooms to students because I am gone more than I am here and it keeps the home occupied, which protects my property rather than being vacant and uninsurable. I have had many international students over the years....some from Hong Kong, mainland China, Taiwan, Viet Nam, Indonesia, Korea, California (?), and a few others that I can't recall at the moment. My house is a 4 bedroom rambler and I usually rent two rooms but have rented all of them on occasion, depending on my plans for being here or not. I have also had ongoing maid service to clean common areas as the students aren't big on cleaning other's messes. My yard is professionally maintained as well. This protects my investment and keeps the neighbors happy too. I am familiar with various codes and have even been responsible for certain programs like weed abatement requirements for maintenance of residential property. I am also aware of building codes and requirements for habitable spaces. Both of these areas are generally already in existing codes enforced by cities. As a foreign traveler, I have visited over 23 countries around the world, many of them 3rd world. Many cultures do not share the luxury of having a private bedroom for each person. In my experience, the norm would be a shared room, sometimes entire families sharing one sleeping room. I certainly do not advocate that but it is important to note what is relevant to others. ORD.B Page 161 of 324 I recently attended an informational meeting at GRCC where issues of concern to neighbors were discussed. Some of my neighbors seemed upset and, perhaps a little racist, as to their concerns about students living in their midst. They talked about cars being parked and about speeding cars as well. The few times I have seen speeders here, they were not students but others who live here. I was almost hit once when I pulled onto 318th Way from 126th by a car doing about 40. I made a hand signal for him to slow down and he came racing back to ask what I was complaining about. I told him the speed limit was 25 and he insisted it was 35 though he was doing about 40+. I digress! I think that as a responsible homeowner (landlord?) living here that I have the right to rent out individual rooms to students. I am filling part of a huge need for housing. The neighborhood is evolving as it does in every other college neighborhood. There are already sufficient rules and codes dealing with yard maintenance (nuisance abatement), garages being converted to living space (building code and fire codes), on street parking, speeding, etc. We DO NOT need more rules,just enforcement of those already in existence. The tricky part of the issue is probably in the area of number of occupants to occupy a bedroom. For the sake of my property, I usually limit one person to each of the regular bedrooms. However, I have in the past rented a room to a student with a baby, who shared the same bedroom. I have also rented out the master bedroom to a couple (married but what difference?). In this day and age of marriage for same sex couples and for same sex couples to live together as a couple, how in the world do you expect to regulate that and why would you want to? From a truly pragmatic point of view, I think it is the home owner who should decide how many people he rents his property to, not the government. Government can and should regulate that the property be maintained in a clean and safe manner. As a homeowner, I know that the wear and tear on a property is significantly increased when the number of people in residence increases. But that is my problem, not the city's problem. So regulate and enforce rules about smoke detectors, emergency lights, yard maintenance, parking regulations (don't block driveways, etc.). But we do not need government telling us how many people can be in our homes. Common sense and economic conditions will dictate this. If my neighbors are truly concerned, then they should realize that their properties' value is determined by their highest and best use, and that that use is changing. GRCC is growing as is the entire world. Things have changed in this neighborhood and given the proximity to GRCC, it is going to become more reliant on the availability as a student housing option. The campus apartments currently charge about $700 per student to live in a 4 bedroom apartment. My home is only a couple blocks away and 1 charge $550. Theoretically I could bring in $2,200 per month if I didn't maintain space for myself. That leaves a lot of room for maintenance and management as well as potential profit. There are waiting lists for the apartments and I have never had problems with renting out rooms, usually renting to kids who are friends of the ones who are graduating and moving on. Homes such as mine are necessary for the college to function as an international school. As an added note, 1 declare the income I receive by renting out rooms. Someone at the school once told me that there was an IRS ruling that said 1 didn't have to claim it as income. That didn't seem to make sense so I continue to claim on my taxes. If others are not, then perhaps there is a need to evaluate this "exclusion" as a means of controlling the potential growth of ORD.B Page 162 of 324 rentals here in this neighborhood. But if my neighbors think that they can regulate room rentals out of existence, then they should rethink their goals and realize that the economics of it will dictate that this is no longer a simple neighborhood that will remain a cluster of families living in isolation. The best use of the homes in this neighborhood is for auxiliary student housing and that will be the future. Investors are going to buy our homes, not young families. The values will be higher as a result and that should bode well for the existing owners too. I am sorry that I can not be there on the 18th. I will be visiting friends in Port Angeles and then spending a few days in Oregon. However, I am willing to attend future meetings to answer any questions you may have of me (subject to in travels of course) and you may also feel free to call me at as well on my cell phone: I would prefer to not publish my phone number in case my thoughts might provo a of ers to harass me though I would gladly defend my opinions publicly at any time. Thank you for the opportunity to be considered on this issue.

Written comments would be very helpful. Perhaps we can schedule a phone call as well so that we can go over your comments in advance of the June 18th meeting? That way, I can do the best job I can to present them to the Planning Commission. Additionally, this first action is limited to revising the definition of family so that we don't have a gap in our code that allows up to 8 non-family members to live together as a single housekeeping unit. Removing this language will help code enforcement take action on properties that are loaded with renters who have no relation to each other I hope that you see this as a good first step for the City to take while we discuss the next steps/actions. I would be happy to make myself available for a phone call in the next two weeks, however I think it would be most productive if you prepared your comments first so that I have a chance to read them and we can have a little deeper conversation about how to get you plugged in and to make sure you are able to influence the process.

I mentioned this item because it has an impact on the authorities we have for addressing issues that spring up with some of the rental houses throughout town. Modifying the definition of family would be the first item in a series of potential code changes that works towards creating a more definable and manageable rental housing program.

I live in Rainier Ridge at 31812 125th PL SE, Auburn. It has come to my attention that the zoning codes for my area are in consideration for change. I bought my home 14 years ago with the intention of living in a community of other single family homes with the knowledge that some rentals would be in the neighborhood. I am completely against the zone codes being modified so that rooming and boarding houses would be legal in my neighborhood. The fact that it is happening illegally already is bad enough, let's not make it worse. I find that home owners typically have a better love for their house and therefore take better care. In turn that keeps the neighborhood looking nice and the values higher than if the neighborhood was filled will boarding houses of people who do not have the same love for the home. Being a Realtor I have seen more than the average person in regards to housing and therefore have a strong opinion in this matter. If boarding/rooming houses are in need let's build some more student housing and leave the existing neighborhoods alone.

I am an English professor at Green River Community College, and I live in the Ranier Ridge subdivision at 12443 SE 318th Way I have lived at this location for over twelves years and over the years have watched as people have bought houses in the area not to live in , but to carve up, cutting up garages and even living rooms without permits, and changing their houses into Boarding Rooming Houses. These are currently illegal by the code we live under And now it appears that the city wants to change the zone to accomodate these illegal conversions. One of these conversions is right next to me, and I can attest that no family lives there. In fact, at times there have been eight students living there. The house has been allowed to run down, cars have been parked on the lawn, trash is left out for days, there has been little, if any, repair done on the structure, and rats have been found on the property who have migrated onto my property I maintain my home and find it offensive that the city is willing to support people who do not live in the area who are going to make a quick buck at the expense of the neighborhood. I know my neighbors and I love living in a neighborhood designed for families. I am aware that a couple of my neighbors have filed complaints to the Planning/Code Enforcement Office of Auburn about these conversions, only to learn that one of the long term code enforcers of Auburn is doing the same type of illegal conversions in houses close to the college. Those who have complained have been visited by code enforcers and have been cited for seeming "irregularities" on their property It is appalling that those with the authority to enforce the law are not only violating the laws themselves, but are also using their office and power to stiffle legitimate complaints. This is a country of laws and not coercion. This problem has also been pointed out to city officials. And now the city is exploring possibilities of allowing Boarding Houses in our single family neighborhood. I am totally against this possible change. The college needs to build more dorms if it cannot handle the international students that it is recruiting, instead of creating a serious problem for the neighborhood that is affecting both the quality and the safety of our home and our families. Of course, it is also affecting the economic values of 1 ORD.B Page 167 of 324 our homes. I supported being annexed to Auburn because I thought we as a community would be more protected by our elected representatives. I expect you to take that responsibility seriously I want this email to be officially included in your formal discussions and for your thoughtful consideration. Sincerely, Hank Galmish 12443 SE 318th Way Auburn, WA 98092 253-939-4943 2 ORD.B Page 168 of 324 Elizabeth Chamberlain From: thesurecure @netzero.net Sent: Tuesday,August 06, 2013 11 44 AM To: Elizabeth Chamberlain Subject: Citizen Comment to the PCDC-August 12, 2013 Hello, We have lived at 12817 SE 318th Way for 5 years. We could rent an apartment for much cheaper than we pay to live here; but we choose to live here because we want to live in a peaceful neighborhood of single family homes. Please do not change the zoning codes; we implore you to enforce the code as it now exists. If this turns into a neighborhood of rooming houses, we will probably move. Thank you for letting us express our concerns. Jonathan and Julie Hord i ORD.B Page 169 of 324 i Pertaining to the Issues of Illegal Rooming Houses in Neighborhoods Surroundin 4000 9 40 Nancy Welch and Jeff Tate, Living close to the Green River Community College our neighborhood has been targeter 6y 6rupu- IOUS individuals that have been running illegal rooming houses. To be clear, the motive is pro ift'and to that end many have resorted to increased occupancy by converting existing garages into hidden bed- rooms and living spaces. These conversions have been done with no permit, no inspection and by unlicensed persons doing substandard work and questionable electrical hookups. It can be assumed that appropriate insulation of the spaces and venting of water heaters have not been addressed accord- ing to code. The fact that the interior conversions are sitting behind non-operable garage doors is a code violation in itself.i Initially I and others have gone to the persons working in the GRCC program serving international stu- dents to try to enlist their help in protecting their students who are being taken advantage of, but they have stated that they have no control on where students live if they are not housed in their own campus apartment village. These very issues have been mentioned directly by me to other officials of the col- lege including the President, Eileen Ely and no action has been taken. I have spoken openly in city sponsored and college sponsored meetings of our concerns for the students'well being as well as this assault on the integrity of our neighborhood with little if any response from the college. The only response of real significance occurred just this Spring when the office seeing to the housing options for international students has removed the option of the HomeShare program from their avail- able choices. Cyndi Rapier has personally related to me that they no longer support or will refer stu- dents to houses for obtaining living arrangements. The HomeStay program where students live with a local family and the Campus Corner Apartments are now the only options listed. In late summer of 2010, getting no help or concern from the college community I filed a formal com- plaint against three of these houses with the City of Auburn. I stated that they were being run as room- ing or boarding houses (illegal in R-5 zoning) and also stated that non-permitted and un-inspected con- versions had been made in the garages for living spaces and could be a danger to the people living in them. Several days after making this complaint two code enforcement officers showed up at my house saying they had a complaint against the property. I mentioned that I had made a complaint against three other properties. Professing that they must have written down my address by accident (were they unfamiliar with the complaint form format?, did they not have a copy of the complaint form with them as part of an open file?) one of the officers said he noted that I had a couple of unregistered mini-trucks in my drive- way that appeared to be not drivable. The other one said "Perhaps you should make sure your own house is in order before complaining about your neighbors." I remember laughing at the time and saying "OK, I get it." I later received a citation and was given 21 days to correct the situation.After the bulk of that time had gone by, I contacted the officer, Donald Hill and explained that I was having difficulty finding a buyer for my vintage (45 year old) pickups and needed some more time. He expressed passing concern giving me slightly longer but said that he would be forced to see me cited with daily fines if I did not comply within his stated time frame. I later sold my trucks for about a third of their value and the violation was closed. But what you may wonder happened to the properties that I had included in my complaint? NOTHING! I ORD.B Page 170 of 324 Reading the reports in the recently obtained records I find out that the whole of the investigation of these properties was to drive by and look for a violation.Apparently their X-ray vision googles were out of batteries or in the shop for repair as they were not able to see the bedrooms hidden behind garages doors. After they completed several more drive by inspections the cases were closed. Before this occurred I also emailed a photograph I took one evening of one of the houses while standing in a public space sidewalk)that revealed normal living furniture and lamps through the window at the side of the garage. The reply I received from code enforcement was dismissive and they stated that they were concerned that I had violated someone's civil rights and had forwarded the photo on to the police department. The Records of the Three Cases (plus One Recent One): Please remember when reading these cases that the original complaint was specifically about rooming house activity and illegal interior construction. V1010-0637 12401 SE 318th Way, Auburn 98092 A drive by inspection was done. Donald Hill notes he could not see any violation from the outside.At the request of Rick Hopkins, he and CJ (Chuck Joiner?) repeated the drive by inspection a week later and again noted no violation. Donald Hill also reports that he spoke with the complainant(me) and that I confirmed that the"viola- tions appear to have ceased." This is LIE! No conversation ever occurred between Hill and myself concerning my complaint. My only contact with him was concerning my citation for my non-running trucks. The case was opened on 9/16/2010 and closed on 9/22/2010 See Attachment 1 By the way, there is no business license associated with this address. I I VIO10-0652 (2010) 12625 SE 317th St, Auburn 98092 Donald Hill reports he made a site inspection and saw no signs of violation. No inspection report is in- cluded in the file on this action, so we must assume that he looked at the building strictly from the out- side. He also reports that he returned to discuss the complaint with me and that I reported that the"violations appear to have ceased." This is LIE! No conversation ever occurred between Hill and myself where I denied that the rooming house activity or the possible garage living spaces had disappeared. The case was opened on 9116/2010 and closed on 9/22/2010. See Attachment 2. IORD.B Page 171 of 324 The owners of this particular property are frequent advertisers by posted flyer with pull tabs see Attachments 3 and 4). If there is any doubt that this is a rooming house please review a copy of the rental agreement sent just within the last week to a prospective renter. Note the wording, "Landlord rents one private room to Ten- ant, and Tenant rents one private room from Landlord for residential purposes only." Also note else- where that some rooms are rented as singles, others as doubles and some may even have three occu- pants. "Occupancy by no more than two adult[sic] for single room or three adult [sic]for shared room." See Attachment 5- four pages) By the way, there is no business license associated with this address. VI010-0773 (2010) 12437 SE 318th Way,Auburn 98092 This case lasted longer than the others. The initial response was just like the others (drive by inspec- tions) and then the record notes the photographs I sent in which actually did spark some additional in- terest and record checking, ending in a call to the owner(Kevin Bauer). He admitted that there were living spaces behind the garage door (but denied they were bedrooms). He stated the house was rented to a single family, a point that is vehemently disputed by his next door neighbor, Hank Galmish, who had to deal with a number of problems with loud, rude, and messy stu- dents living there. Informed of the need for a business license and the need for permit and inspection of the additions, Kevin Bauer applied for his business license (BUS 27548) and filed for an alteration building permit ALT10-0339) and so the case was CLOSED (See Attachments 6, 7, and 8) What happened? NOTHING! Once the case was closed the progress on the alteration permit ceased and was thereafter ignored by the property owner The last communication between the city and Kevin Bauer is a letter from Jeff Tate dated January 11 2011 (See Attachment 9). Kevin Bauer has continued to renew his business license for both his home and the house in Rainier Ridge (the alleged illegal rooming house). The Bauers appear to surpass the legal allowable level of subleases at their own home housing as many as four students at a time (See <http'//www n-seiryo ac ip/—nonaka/sap/111050/epage01 htm>). However, he has failed to inform the city that he now owns and rents out many more additional proper- ties in Auburn. His real estate holdings also include: 18121 ST NE Meadow Brooke Estates Auburn, WA 98002 (a 4 Plex) Parcel Number 540900-0020 1011 18TH ST NE Meadow Brooke Estates Auburn, WA 98002 (a 4 Plex) Parcel Number 540900-0090 11114 SE 320TH ST* Placed in R-5 zoning code Auburn, WA 98092 (a mobile home) Parcel Number 082105-9046 ORD.B Page 172 of 324 this last property is another suspected rooming house close to GRCC I believe his actions in not reporting his additional rental properties represents a "misrepresentation of the facts" as is stated legally as a reason for losing a business license in Auburn. Kevin Bauer has been a person uniquely positioned to take advantage of the international student population for his own personal gain. For years he was listed as a member of the Contact Advisory Board for the International Program at GRCC. See: httos'//www greenriver edu/international/hostoost/spring2012 issue019 hhn from March of last year). I realize that this is hearsay but in a recent conversation with a neighbor it was reported that Bauer had told him how lucrative it could be, renting to students. That he too should get a house and do it. The comment was that if you were not banking $2000 a month pure profit than you were not doing it right. V1013-0082 12620 SE 317th St,Auburn 98092 Lastly, I would like to include a case that has come up just recently. In trying to raise awareness of our problems I have hosted both Deputy-Mayor Nancy Backus and Jeff Tate for walks around parts of Rain- ier Ridge to show them our neighborhood and point out some of these properties that are being used illegally. When Nancy Backus came we looked through the two added side windows of a garage to ob-serve two carpeted bedrooms all hidden behind a non-functional garage door.This house was in fore- closure and unoccupied at the time. Because of her own report a new violation case was opened. The violation was posted on February 19 of this year. The house was almost immediately sold AS-IS and the violation was then the responsibility of the new owners. Plenty of work has been done on the house, replacing much of the flooring with wood, outside upkeep and maintenance has been done and now the exterior is being painted. However NOTHING has ap- parently been done with the garage rooms. There are reported to be five students living in the house. j The current homeowner has made some moves to address the matter and, in fact, filed for an inspec- tion on April 12th (See Attachment 10). This inspection request, for some unknown reason was not j logged into the case file until July 30th and on that same day Jason Arbogast CLOSED THE CASE. No inspection has been done, no renovation or demolition occurred and the rooms as observed and cited in the original Violation presumable still exist. It was only because of my own Intervention that this came to light and the case has been reopened by Jeff Tate (see Attachment 11) What questions does this all raise and what would I like to see done at this point? 1. Please reopen all the older cases cited above (VIO10-0637, V1010-0652, V1010-0773) and take a serious look at the houses, accommodations, physical use as might indicate piecemeal rentals being done to individuals not a single rental as is allowed by code.A simple request to ask the inhabitants to lift the garage door and the resultant excuses as to why that is not possible could reveal much. If this can't be done then I will come in and make out a new complaint for the same reasons as I stated three years ago. ORD.B Page 173 of 324 2. Why is there such variability and vagarity in application and time periods given for compliance to a violation? I was given 21 days to take care of my trucks(with one small extension). The violation (VI013-0082) posted on the house viewed by Deputy Mayor Backus stated that there was only 14 days for compliance but currently 6 months has passed without resolution or any real plans being discussed. Not even the requested inspection originally logged in on April 12th had been done. When the code enforcement officer, Mr.Arbogast, actually logged in the request for inspection on July 30th he also then CLOSED THE CASE, WHY? The violation posted for Mr. Bauer's house was closed when he applied for a permit that he then never bothered to pursue. It is now nearly three years since that violation was initially filed and there has been no follow-up of any kind on the alteration permit. 3. Please recognize that these cases openly flaunted the zoning codes and have occurred without any effort at correction by the City (even when specifically requested). It appears to be well known that this is a situation others can exploit because we are now seeing even more of it. One of the city's own code enforcement officers is engaged in such ownership/activity Why would it be appropriate to now suggest finding ways to make this currently prohibited use of property legal?The traffic system corol- lary would be to note that no one bothers to stop or obey a particular traffic signal, so the answer is to take it down. 4. Serious attention has to be paid to the training and knowledge of the code enforcement officers in Auburn. They either do not understand their jobs, or are too free to exercise the power of their posi- tions. Why are cases arbitrarily CLOSED when nothing has been resolved? I would have to say that my contacts with them have been nothing but punitive, insulting and aimed at ensuring that I do not speak out or ask for laws to be followed. Please protect our neighborhood and our property values, please follow the existing zoning code re- strictions and close these illegal rooming houses!

DEPARTMENT COMMENTS Building Division Comments This report is provided as information only, and Includes the items that have been Identified as deficiencies or needing to be addressed during the plan review. It is not intended to be an all-inclusive list of code requirements that may be applicable or required to construct this project. Please note that not all items or issues may have been Identified or discerned during the plan review process. If any item or Issues are discovered or Identified during construction or at the time of field inspections these will need to be addressed and corrections made so that code compliance is achieved. Please contact the Building Inspector before deviating from approved plans or proceeding with any changes in construction. This plan review is based on submitted construction documents and Information provided with the application. Requirements of the 2009 edition building codes were used as the basis for the plan review. Based on the correction items, revised drawings are required. Please provide corrections for the items listed below. 1. Indicate on the plans the direction of the roof rafters or trusses. This will help us to determine the correct sizes for the headers. 2. What is the size of the combustion air vents for the water heater and heater? 3. How was the washer hooked up to the existing plumbing? 4. Where does the dryer vent exhaust to? How long is it? 5. What rooms or buiiding(s) are adjacent to this construction area? 6. The Washington State Energy Code requires that the exterior walls have a minimum insulation value of R-21. Please indicate on the plans how the additional insulation will be Installed. Please provide a detail to illustrate this. 7. What is the V'value of the window glazing? 8. Please provide a separate plan showing what was existing prior to the conversion. AUBURN * MORE THAN YOU IMAGINED ORD.B Page 187 of 324 Buaer—ALT10.0339 January 11,2011 Page 2 9. You have indicated on the plans that the wails have R-13 Insulation installed in them. The Washington State Energy Code requires that these walls have a minimum of R-21 and the ceilings are required to have a minimum of R-38. One option that you can look into-if the insulation values are not what they should be go to an insulation contractor or the WSU Energy Code program and do a performance calculation. This will allow you the opportunity to do trade-offs. 10.Also note that all headers are required to be sandwiched around R-10 ridged insulation. Please note this on the plans. 11. Indicate on the plans the size and location of the required combustion air vent(IRC G- 2407).

He showed me that this case had been closed and that the notes indicated that the reason it was closed was because a permit had been issued. After looking at the record I noticed that the only action that had been taken was for the landowner to receive an inspection(INS 13-0004). An INS is a courtesy inspection to help the scope the types of permits that are required to correct a violation. Since no permits have been applied for or issued I have reopened the case.

BACKGROUND AND GENERAL INFORMATION: Recent inquiries from private developers have raised questions about the market viability of meeting the mixed-use standards required for the C-1, Light Commercial zone. In particular, concerns have been raised over the required 50% of the cumulative ground floor space for a development with 2 or more buildings be dedicated to commercial retail, entertainment, of office uses. This staff report outlines the proposed amendments related to mixed-use development within the C-1, Light Commercial zone. ll. SEPA STATUS: Pursuant to WAC 197-11-800(6), non-project actions such as code amendments are not exempt from environmental review The City issued a Determination of Non-Significance August 5, 2013. The comment period ends August 19, 2013 and the appeal period ends on September 3, 2013 III. FINDINGS OF FACT: 1 In general, the intent of the proposed zoning code amendments is to amend what amount of commercial is required for multi-family development within the C-1, Light Commercial zone. 2. The process for zoning code text amendments is described in ACC Chapter 18.68: 18.68.020 Initiation of amendments. B. Text. 1 The city council, or planning and development committee of the city council, upon its own motion may request the planning commission to conduct a public hearing to amend any portion or all of this title; provided, that text amendments that are purely administrative or procedural do not require a public hearing, nor do they require preliminary review or recommendations of the planning commission; 2. The planning commission may upon its awn motion call for a public hearing to amend any portion or all of this title, with the exception of purely administrative or procedural amendments; 3. Any resident or property owner of the city may petition the city to request an amendment to the text of this title. C. For the purposes of this chapter, substantive amendments shall be distinguished from procedural or administrative amendments in accordance with the following: Substantive" matters relate to regulations that define or limit what can be done in terms of conduct, use or action (e.g., what use may be made of land, what requirements apply to development, what public infrastructure may be required of certain developments), and "procedural' or "administrative" matters are those that relate to the process of how Zoning Code Text Amendment ZOA13-0005 Staff Report to the Planning Commission August 13, 2013 Page 1 ORD.C Page 201 of 324 an application to take such action must be pursued (e g., time limits for applications and appeals, what forms must be used, and where or how applications must be submitted. Essentially, "procedural' or"administrative" matters are the mechanical rules by which substantive issues may be pursued). (Ord. 6287 § 2, 2010; Ord. 6198 § 3, 2008; Ord. 4840 § 1, 1996, Ord. 4304 § 1(46), 1988; Ord. 4229 § 2, 1987 ) 18.68.030 Public hearing process. A. Text Amendments.

Pursuant to RCW 36.70A.106, the proposed code amendments outlined in this staff report were sent to the Washington State Department of Commerce and other state agencies as required for the 60-day state review required for modification of development regulations. The amendments were sent on August 5, 2013 and expedited review was requested under RCW 36.70A.106(3)(b). The Department of Commerce acknowledged receipt on August 7, 2013. Expedited review has not been granted as of the writing of this staff report. If the expedited review request is denied then the standard 60-days applies from the submittal date of August 5, 2013. 6. Staff presented the proposed code amendment approach to the Planning Commission and Planning and Community Development Committee at a joint meeting held on August 12, 2013 for review and discussion. Zoning Code Text Amendment ZOA13-0005 Staff Report to the Planning Commission August 13, 2013 Page 2 ORD.C Page 202 of 324 7 The public hearing notice was published on August 8, 2013 in the Seattle Times at least 10-days prior to the Planning Commission public hearing scheduled for August 20, 2013. The public hearing notice was also posted at the City's Annex Building at One East Main Street and on the City's website. 8. The following conclusions support the proposed amendment to Title 18, Zoning, scheduled for the Planning Commission's August 20, 2013 public hearing with a staff recommendation. IV. CONCLUSIONS: 1 Pursuant to ACC Section 18.68.020, amendments of Title 18 require a public hearing before the Planning Commission with a public hearing notice published at least 10-days prior to the public hearing date. Staff Analysis: The public hearing notice was published in the Seattle Times on August 8, 2013 which is at least 10-days prior to the Planning Commission public hearing scheduled for August 20, 2013. The public hearing notice was also posted at the City's Annex Building at One East Main Street and on the City's website. 2. These code amendments are supported by the City of Auburn's Comprehensive Plan as follows: LU-57: Mixed-use developments with both commercial and residential components are encouraged in Light Commercial centers. These developments should include primarily retail stores and offices designed to provide convenient shopping and other services for nearby residents. Industrial and heavy commercial uses should be excluded Objective 9.3: To encourage the appropriate use of areas adjacent to heavily traveled arterials while minimizing land use and traffic conflicts by- 1. Managing the continued commercial development of existing commercial arterials in a manner which minimizes traffic and land use conflicts. 2. Conserving residential qualities along heavily traveled arterials which are not yet commercialized, by restricting commercial development to types which provide an appropriate buffer 3. Protecting existing, viable residential areas along lesser-traveled arterials, from commercial development. 4 Concentrate population and employment growth within the eight key economic development strategy areas within the City identified as follows: Auburn Way North Corridor Auburn Way South Corridor Zoning Code Text Amendment ZOA13-0005 Staff Report to the Planning Commission August 13, 2013 Page 3 ORD.C Page 203 of 324 Urban Center Auburn Environmental Park and Green Zone 15`h Street SW/C Street SW/West Valley Highway/Supermall A Street SE Corridor SE 312'" Street/124'h Avenue SE Corridor M Street SE between Auburn Way North and Auburn Way South. LU-58: The City has identified those existing commercial arterials that are appropriate for continued commercial development and employment growth as well as a concentration of population growth. These areas are identified as the eight economic development strategy areas as identified under Objective 9.3 Sub-area plans for these strategy areas should be developed. ED-10: The City should develop a formal economic development strategy as an element of the Comprehensive Plan to specifically identify the types of businesses most consistent with community aspirations and lay out a program to attract those businesses. a. The City should work cooperatively with other governmental agencies in its economic development efforts, including the Muckleshoot Tribe, King County, Pierce County, the Port and the State. b. The City should implement its economic development strategy through a partnership with the private sector. c. Identified in the 2005 Economic Development Strategies documents are six strategy areas along with two additional strategy areas. These economic development strategy areas are targeted for population and employment growth to meet the City's 20-year (2031) growth target. Sub-area plans should be developed for these strategy areas. The economic development strategy areas are as follows: Auburn Way North Corridor Auburn Way South Corridor Urban Center Auburn Environmental Park and Green Zone 15'h Street SW/C Street SW/West Valley Highway/Supermall A Street SE Corridor SE 312'h Street/124`h Avenue SE Corridor M Street SE between Auburn Way North and Auburn South ED-15: Implement the recommendations of the City's 2005 Economic Development Strategies brochure including the addition of the SE 312`h Street/124'h Avenue SE corridor and M Street SE between Auburn Way North and Auburn Way South. The City's 20-year housing and employment growth shall be concentrated to these economic development strategy areas. Problems related to Existing Uses— Lea Hill Area: Area: Area annexed on January 1, 2008. Zoning Code Text Amendment ZOA13-0005 Staff Report to the Planning Commission August 13, 2013 Page 4 ORD.C Page 204 of 324 Problem: The City has been concerned for years that the rapid growth taking place within the Lea Hill PAA will overwhelm city streets. Through annexation the City can better manage the amount and type of growth in this area and help ensure that appropriate infrastructure to support development is provided concurrent with that development. The Auburn City Council envisions retaining the predominantly single-family character of the Lea Hill area rather than allow the trend of rapidly developing multi-family projects to continue. The City's codes will help ensure that the neighborhood character, traffic and environmentally sensitive features are protected and/or managed. Staff Analysis: The proposed code amendments recognize the market sensitivity surrounding mixed- use development while maintaining the City's goal of having the SE 312th/124s°corridor, Auburn Way South, A Street SE Corridor, and Urban Center Extended districts be economic development strategy areas that supports both residential and commercial development. Auburn has identified eight economic development strategy areas throughout the City with the goal of concentrating population and employment growth within these strategy areas and C-1, Light Commercial zoning currently exists in four of the strategy areas. Over the next twenty years, Auburn will need to plan for approximately 9,600 new housing units and 19,000 jobs (starting year is 2006). The proposed code amendments allow for multifamily development within the C-1, Light Commercial zone while requiring some commercial be incorporated into a project meeting the goal of accommodating the City's future housing and job growth. To address the C-1, Light Commercial zone, specifically on Lea Hill, in 2008, when the remainder of Lea Hill was annexed, the City added a policy statement limiting multi- family development as the area had experienced a trend of multi-family development. In order to balance slowing down the rapid multi-family development but still plan for housing and job growth targets, the City implemented a mixed-use requirement if multi- family is to be developed within the C-1, Light Commercial zone. The proposed amendments today, recognize the market sensitivity of mixed-use projects while still maintaining the City's goal of limiting multi-family development to the SE 312'hII24th Avenue area and having commercial development be part of a project. V. STAFF RECOMMENDATION/DECISION Staff recommends that the Planning Commission recommend to the City Council approval of the proposed code amendment as presented. VI.

None ENVIRONMENTAL CHECKLIST Page 1 of 16 ORD.C Page 214 of 324 Environmental Checklist (continued)TO BE COMPLETED BY APPLICANT 9. Do you know whether applications are pending for governmental approvals of other proposals directly affecting the property covered by your proposal? If yes, explain. None. 10. List any government approvals or permits that will be needed for your proposal, if known. The City of Auburn Planning Commission will hold a public hearing on the proposed code amendments addressed in this environmental checklist and will forward a recommendation to the Auburn City Council. The City Council may or may not hold a public hearing prior to taking action adopting, adopting in part, or not adopting the amendments. Although not an approval or permit, the proposed zoning text amendments are also subject to the 60-day State Agency review process pursuant to RCW 36.70A.106. The City will be requesting expedited review. 11. Give a brief, complete description of your proposal, including the proposed uses and the size of the project and site. There are several questions later in this checklist that ask you to describe certain aspects of your proposal. You need not repeat those answers on this page. The City put into place regulations that requires a certain amount of commercial development when developing a multifamily project. The current regulations have not responded well to the current market and the City is interested in making the regulations more flexible by allowing alternatives to the traditional mixed-use development. 12. Location of the proposal. Give sufficient information for a person to understand the precise location of your proposed project, including a street address, if any, and section, township, and range, if known. If a proposal would occur over a range of area, provide the range or boundaries of the site(s). Provide a legal description, site plan, vicinity map, and topographic map, if reasonably available. While you should submit any plans required by the agency, you are not required to duplicate maps or detailed plans submitted with any permit applications related to this checklist. The proposed code amendment would be applicable to properties zoned C-1, Light Commercial. B. ENVIRONMENTAL ELEMENTS: 1. Earth: A. General description of the site (circle one): Flat, rolling, hilly, steep slopes, mountainous, other. The City of Auburn is characterized by a relatively flat valley floor bordered by steep hillsides that plateau. Page 2 of 16 ORD.C Page 215 of 324 Environmental Checklist (continued)TO BE COMPLETED BY APPLICANT B. What is the steepest slope on the site (approximate percent slope)? The slope of the valley walls in the city varies, but some slopes associated with the valley walls reach 100%. Most sites on the valley floor have limited slopes. C. What general types of soils are found on the site (for example, clay, sand, gravel, peat, muck)? If you know the classification of agricultural soils, specify them and note any prime farmland. The valley floor is made up primarily of soils of the Oridia, Renton, Snohomish and Briscott series. These soils are fairly poorly drained and formed in the alluvium (river sediments) associated with the White and Green rivers. These are considered good agricultural soils, though in many areas, are not well-drained. There is no designated prime farmland within the City of Auburn. The soils in the uplands are predominantly of the Alderwood series. These soils drain moderately well and are typically located on slopes ranging from 0-70%. D. Are there surface indications or history of unstable soils in the immediate vicinity? If so, describe. Many factors affect slope stability including soil type, parent material, slope and drainage. These factors can be further affected by human intervention such as slope alteration, and vegetation removal. The city has identified categories of geologic hazard areas and inventoried these areas. Maps of the erosion and landslide hazard areas are provided as Maps 9.6 and 9 7, respectively in the City's Comprehensive Plan. E. Describe the purpose, type, and approximate quantities of any filling or grading proposed. Indicate source of fill. Not applicable. The proposed amendments are non-project actions, so no site alteration, construction, or earthwork is proposed. F. Could erosion occur as a result of clearing, construction, or use? If so, generally describe. Not applicable. Non-project action. G. About what percent of the site will be covered with impervious surfaces after project construction (for example, asphalt or buildings)? Not applicable. The action does not involve site specific development proposals H. Proposed measures to reduce or control erosion, or other impacts to the earth. This is a non-project action so no site specific erosion control is proposed. However, the existing comprehensive plan includes numerous policies to reduce or control erosion through the use of best management practices, landscaping requirements, limitations on alteration of steep slopes and other critical areas protections. Impacts to earth will be identified and, if necessary, mitigated during the development review process as specific development proposals are made that might be associated with these plan amendments. Page 3 of 16 ORD.C Page 216 of 324 Environmental Checklist (continued)TO BE COMPLETED BY APPLICANT The city also has design and construction standards that address erosion control measures. 2. Air: A. What types of emissions to the air would result from the proposal (i.e., dust, automobile, odors, industrial wood smoke) during construction and when the project is completed? If any,generally describe and give approximate quantities if know. Not applicable. Proposal is a non-project action. B. Are there any off-site sources of emissions or odors that may affect your proposal? If so, generally describe. Not applicable. Proposal is a non-project action. C.

SUPPLEMENTAL SHEET FOR NONPROJECT ACTIONS Do not use this sheet for project actions.) Because these questions are very general, it may be helpful to read them in conjunction with the list of the elements of the environment When answering these questions, be aware of the extent of the proposal, or the types of activities likely to result from the proposal that would affect the item at a greater intensity or at a faster rate than if the proposal were not implemented. Respond briefly and in general terms. 1. How would the proposal be likely to increase discharge to water; emissions to air; production, storage, or release of toxic or hazardous substances; or production of noise? The proposed code amendments to the C-1, Light Commercial zone, should have a minimal change in discharging to water, emissions to air, production, storage, or release of toxic or hazardous substances or the production of noise. While the proposed code amendment could apply to undeveloped property, the City's stormwater design manual addresses stormwater discharges and the City has other regulations addressing emissions to air and hazardous substances. Proposed measures to avoid or reduce such increases are: The City of Auburn Comprehensive Plan contains provisions to reduce increases or emissions caused by new development. Emphasis in the Comprehensive Plan on reducing the reliance on the automobile for transportation should reduce the amount of emissions to the air Policies in the Environment Chapter also provide guidance in the review of development proposals to encourage native vegetation. This should support wildlife habitat areas, particularly near streams, as the policies assist the City in addressing adverse impacts to water quality and wildlife habitat from runoff since native plantings may require less pesticide use. An environmental review of all non-exempt (from SEPA) development will be conducted to evaluate and mitigate impacts related to discharges, emissions, and the release of toxic substances. Evaluation of the site specific proposals will be based on the policies of the Comprehensive Plan and appropriate mitigation will take place on a case by case basis. City development standards including but not limited to the critical areas ordinance, shoreline master program regulations, and the Design and Construction Manuals, also provide additional protection for these types of impacts. 2. How would the proposal be likely to affect plants, animals, fish, or marine life? The proposal is not likely affect plants, animals, fish, or marine life. However, as noted below, the City has development standards to provide protection for these types of impacts. Proposed measures to protect or conserve plants,animals,fish, or marine life are: Generally, the adopted Auburn Comprehensive Plan and critical areas ordinance seek to protect and conserve plants, animals, fish, and marine life. An environmental review under SEPA of all non-exempt development is conducted to measure impacts. Evaluation based Page 14 of 16 ORD.C Page 227 of 324 Environmental Checklist (continued)TO BE COMPLETED BY APPLICANT on the policies of the Auburn Comprehensive Plan and appropriate mitigation will take place on a case-by-case basis. Policies within the Environment Chapter also provide guidance in the review of development proposals to encourage native vegetation be used and/or retained. This should support wildlife habitat areas, particularly near streams as the policies assist the city in addressing adverse runoff impacts to water quality and wildlife habitat since native plantings may require less pesticide use. City development standards including but not limited to the critical areas ordinance and the shoreline master program regulations also provide additional protection for these types of impacts. 3. How would the proposal be likely to deplete energy or natural resources? Future development will use natural gas and electricity and could result in increased automobile uses. However, there does not appear to be any significant adverse increases in the use of energy of natural resources resulting from the amendments being proposed to the existing comprehensive plan over what might occur under existing plan designations. Proposed measures to protect or conserve energy and natural resources are: None specifically, as this is a non-project action. However, in addition to the provisions of the Auburn Energy Management Plan (adopted in 1986), which encourages energy conservation in public buildings, street lighting, and recycling, the comprehensive plan places an emphasis on providing for alternative methods of travel to the automobile such as transit, walking, and biking. An environmental review under SEPA of all significant development will be conducted to measure the project impacts. 4. How would the proposal be likely to use or affect environmentally sensitive areas or areas designated (or eligible or under study)for governmental protection; such as parks, wilderness, wild and scenic rivers, threatened or endangered species habitat, historic or cultural sites, wetlands, floodplains, or prime farmlands? Taken as a whole, there should not be any change in impacts from existing regulations on environmentally sensitive areas or areas designated for government protection. Regulations are in place to protect environmentally sensitive areas regardless of the use of the land or these proposed code amendments. Proposed measures to protect such resources or to avoid or reduce impacts are: The comprehensive plan and, in particular, the critical areas ordinance, seek to protect environmentally sensitive areas (wetlands, streams, geologically hazard areas, Floodplain,wildlife habitat, and aquifer recharge areas) and to reduce the impacts of development on them. The Auburn Comprehensive Plan provides for the implementation of innovative land management techniques to protect these resources. An environmental review under SEPA for all non-exempt development will be conducted to evaluate impacts. 5. How would the proposal be likely to affect land and shoreline use, including whether it would allow or encourage land or shoreline uses incompatible with existing plans? Page 15 of 16 ORD.C Page 228 of 324 Environmental Checklist (continued)TO BE COMPLETED BY APPLICANT Amendments can only be approved if it can be assured that future development is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan and its policies and related regulations. Those proposals that are not consistent with the comprehensive plan policies or other existing plans will not be approved. Proposed measures to avoid or reduce shoreline and land use impacts are: The comprehensive plan, critical areas ordinance, and other development regulations, such as the zoning ordinance and shoreline master program, seek to protect these land and shoreline resources and to reduce the effects of development on them. An environmental review under SEPA of all development that is non-exempt will also be conducted to evaluate a proposal's land use and environmental impacts. 6. How would the proposal be likely to increase demands on transportation or public services and utilities? The proposed amendment could lead towards development that may increase demands on public services, the transportation network, and utilities. The City has adopted a traffic impact fee structure to address impacts to the transportation network. Proposed measures to reduce or respond to such demand(s) are: The Auburn Comprehensive Plan presently incorporates the 2013-2018 Capital Facilities Plan updated, which seeks to maintain a sufficient level of service for public services as development occurs. Also, the city actively engages in planning for public facilities. The Comprehensive Water Plan and Comprehensive Sewer Plan updates were adopted by the city in 2009 The Comprehensive Drainage Plan update was also adopted in 2009 The Comprehensive Transportation Plan was adopted in 2005 with updates during the 2006 and 2009 Comprehensive Plan amendment cycles. These plans help ensure that utility impacts are adequately monitored and evaluated on a project level and city-wide basis. 7. Identify, if possible, whether the proposal may conflict with local, state, or federal laws or requirements for the protection of the environment. The proposal does not appear to present any conflict with local, state, or federal laws or requirements. Page 16 of 16 ORD.C Page 229 of 324 Exhibit 6 ZOA13-0005 CITY OF x D-B uRN Peter B.

As most of you know, this 50% requirement was and is responsible for the dissolving of two contracts for the sales of our properties to a developer. It wasn't feasible when it first was introduced, and it's currently not feasible fiscally, economically, and location- wise. Last evening (July 22, 2013), Deputy Mayor Backus asked us if we had anything new to present besides what has been stated on record via personal visits to Mr. Tate and emails to both Nancy and Jeff. Mr. Rudy Terry felt compelled to emphasize we're at the mercy of all of you. May I take this time to give you a not- so-hypothetical situation . . . Living in the rural beauty of unincorporated Lea Hill, many of us have spent 20 to 40 years up here on the hill, most of our adult lives. Thinking this might just be where we spend the rest of our lives, we realized as neighbors sold their properties due to aging or deaths/inheritances, this would no longer be a rural area. Those of us with large animals became concerned about their well-being with more residential occupants and their curiosities. After annexation, we faced the realities of being "in the city" and watched as multiple houses continued (and continue) to be erected adjacent to our properties. When we collectively decided 1 ORD.C Page 232 of 324 to sell to a developer who offered us prices we couldn't refuse, we signed contracts and began to plan for our futures. Some of our futures are on the shorter side of life. We've probably got one more move in us. Others of us yearn for the more rural lifestyles to accomodate large animals and pets. Most of us (not all) have spent a great deal of money on our homes, properties, and contributed to the economy in Auburn for many years. For some of us, our retirement depends on the sale of our property. To be stopped and/or hindered from selling our properties by a City Code seems unreasonable, but it has happened twice to us and leaves us with few options, if any. Last night the random percentage of 25% allotment for commerciat/retail space was suggested to illustrate there needed to be a new minimum percentage written into the code. As you no doubt realize, this number (25%) is excessive. Since The Seasons' percentage is at 18% and has two units vacant since its inception with the food market being subsidized to stay in business, how can it be reasonable to assume a higher or even a same percentage is realistic? With more vacancies at the small retail location adjacent to the 7/11 on 124th and 312th it's clear that Lea Hill has a surplus of empty retail1commercial space. The more retail/commercial (higher percentage) space required, the less likely it is that we will ever be able to sell our properties. What value is there for a developer to waste money on empty building space(s)? We're asking for what Nancy called "thinking outside the box". We're asking for a more reasonable percentage (based on the allotted empty spaces and subsidized space on Lea Hill) with flexible language to invite a developer to work with the city to accommodate both of their needs. Make that percentage too high and no developer will invest in a losing situation. If the code is too restrictive, the value of buildable land diminishes along with the offers/prices for our properties. If any of you were offered a price for your dwellings which you valued and could not refuse, after deciding for your needs you needed to relocate, would you appreciate the city making such unreasonable restrictions cementing the impossibility for you to sell to the buyer of your choice? This has happened to us more than once. We are landlocked. We are stuck. And it is because of the city's regulations for development. We realize this is a reiteration of all that's been presented to you, but we can't emphasize it enough. Time is truly running out for us. Money for development is tenuous at best. How long it will be available no one can say. We have what we consider a dire need, and without your assistance, understanding, and action we will remain stuck. The timeline presented at the meeting is clearly on a fast-track which we deeply appreciate. However, without the helpful language and much less restrictive requirements, we will be left with no options. 2 ORD.C Page 233 of 324 Thank you for all that you've done so far, for hearing and listening, for taking the time out of your multi-level work issues to include our needs in your agendas.

PLT 12 -0001 INTRODUCTION The Applicant requests approval of a preliminary plat for an 81 lot single- family subdivision of a 10.1 acre parcel located within the Lakeland Hills Master Planned Community. The preliminary plat is approved subject to conditions. ORAL TESTIMONY Hillary Taylor, senior planner, stated that there are 29 findings in the staff report. The application is for a preliminary subdivision of 10.8 acres into 81 single - family residential lots with 7 tracts (tracts a -g). The property is located northeast of the intersection of Lake Parkway E and Thomas Ave. It is located in the southern portion of the Lakeland Hills South Planned Unit Development (PUD). The property is currently vacant and has a comprehensive plan designation of moderate - density residential. A SEPA determination of non - significance was issued on June 6, 2012. Comments were taken until June 25, but no comments were received. The staff report includes conditions for the original Lakeland Hills special area PUD. Staff found compliance with conclusions 1 -7 (including compliance with the comprehensive plan, chapters 1 -13). Recommendations and conditions are listed on pages 18 -21 of the staff report. Condition number 4 notes that certain items within the CCNRs need to be updated and shall be updated prior to the execution of a public extension agreement. There is a correction to the staff report on page 13 within the discussion of the park requirement. The parent lot of lot 131 has an associated park requirement. Park of the park requirement was fulfilled by the Lakeland East Plat such that there should be a credit of 4,544 sq ft towards the park requirement. The park requirement listed on page 13 should only be 10,456 sq ft. The Applicant has proposed to go beyond the requirement by providing 15,791 sq fl. Ms. Taylor noted that Pierce County previously approved a master plan for the area. Ordinance 5092 approved a PUD for the area. After the ordinance was adopted, the Lakeland East Plat was approved and created lot 131. Lot 131 is being subdivided into 81 single - family residential lots. In answer to some questions from the Examiner regarding the 15 year expiration period in the PUD ordinance, Ms. Chamberlain, senior planner, noted that there have been four amendments to the annexation utility agreement which have extended the expiration date. The 81 lots do not bring the Preliminary Plat P. 1 Findings, Conclusions and Decision ORD.D Page 247 of 324 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 development close to the 3,408 building cap set in the PUD ordinance. Lot 131 is not near the leading edge of the development. All of the off -site traffic mitigation has been completed. The storm facilities for the proposed area were incorporated into the Lakeland East Plat. The overall development of the PUD has satisfied the PUD storm drainage and erosion control condition. The Public Facilities Extension Agreement comes after the preliminary plat and before the final plat. It is an agreement accepting the civil plans as submitted (the civil review of the project). No construction will occur until the agreement is accepted. Eric Labrie, ESM Consulting Engineers, testified that the Applicant accepts all of the conditions proposed in the staff report. He noted that Public Facilities Extension Agreement is typically considered a site development permit. EXHIBITS The exhibits identified at p. 21 of the June 28, 2012 staff report are admitted into the record. In addition, the following exhibit admitted during the hearing: Ex. 8: Affidavit of publication. FINDINGS OF FACT Procedural: Applicant. The Applicant is CHG SF, LLC. 2. Hearin, The Hearing Examiner conducted a hearing on the application at City Council Chambers of Auburn City Hall on July 28, 2012, at 5:30 p.m. Substantive: 3. Site/Proposal Descri tion. The Applicant requests approval of a preliminary plat for an 81 lot single- family subdivision located within the Lakeland Hills Master Planned Community within the southern portion of the Lakeland Hills South Planned Unit Development (PUD).. The proposal includes seven tracts (Tracts A -G) which shall be maintained by a homeowner's association. The list of the tracts proposed can be found on the first page of the proposed preliminary plat. The preliminary plat is located at the intersection of Lake Tapps Parkway East and 62nd Street SE (also known as Thomas Avenue SE). The preliminary plat parcel has been subject to a long history of permit approvals, starting with the approval of the Lakeland Hills Master Planned Community while the property was still in Pierce County. In 1998 the City of Auburn adopted Ordinance 5092, which approved a portion of the Master Plan as the Lakeland Hills South Planned Unit Development. A portion of the PUD, in turn, has been subdivided as Preliminary Plat p. 2 Findings, Conclusions and Decision ORD.D Page 248 of 324 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 the Lakeland East Plat, and the proposed preliminary plat is a proposed subdivision of Lot 131 of the Lakeland East Plat. Ordinance 5092, which created the PUD, contained 92 conditions that apply to development of the PUD, including the proposed preliminary plat. Condition 1 of Ordinance 5092 granted the Hearing Examiner with the authority to review compliance with those conditions. P. 3 -10 of the staff report contains an analysis of applicable conditions, concluding they have been met by the proposal as conditioned. At hearing the Examiner had numerous questions of staff regarding the conditions and the examiner has concluded those conditions are met. The staff s analysis, findings and conclusions regarding the conditions at p. 3 -10 of the staff report is adopted and incorporated in this this decision as if set forth in full. 4. Characteristics of the Area. The subdivision is surrounded by detached single - family homes, multi - family homes and undeveloped residentially zoned parcels. 5. Adverse Impacts. As conditioned, there are no significant adverse impacts associated with the proposal. More specifically, impacts are addressed as follows: A. Environmental Resources. There are no mapped critical areas on site. There are no federal or state threatened or endangered fish or animal species on site. The conditions of approval and Chapter 15.74 ACC require the Applicant to prepare a temporary erosion control plan to mitigate against any erosion impacts of the proposal. B. Drainage. The lot has already been graded and the area has been designed through the Lakeland East subdivision review to be served by a public storm facility that is already in place that serves the subdivision just north of the proposed subdivision. The conditions of approval require the subdivision to divert stormwater runoff from the proposed development to the facilities approved in the Lakeland East subdivision. The conditions also require that prior to the execution of a public facilities extension agreement the Applicant shall show evidence of storm drainage conveyance systems that shall provide means for water quality and quantity control including but not limited to catch basins, and /or grass lined swales, prior to discharge. A Department of Ecology Construction Stormwater General Permit is required prior to site work commencing. The ACC has been recently updated with the latest National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System to ensure that stormwater discharge facilities protect water quality and effectively control water volume. C. Aesthetics. The Applicant submitted a preliminary landscape and irrigation plan (sheets 7 and 8 of the preliminary plat drawings), pursuant to ACC Section 17.12.210 and City of Auburn Design Standards. The Applicant is required to meet the standards set forth in the "Master Landscape Plan for Lakeland South" dated July 31, 2001 which includes an approved plant list. As conditioned prior to the issuance of an approved facilities extension agreement the Applicant shall provide a final landscape plat that meets the standards of ACC 17.12.210 and the standards set forth in the "Master Landscape Plan for Lakeland South ". Preliminary Plat p. 3 Findings, Conclusions and Decision ORD.D Page 249 of 324 2 4 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 D. Noise. The conditions of approval extensively mitigation construction noise and also require that homes within 250 feet of the east -west corridor right of way incorporate noise insulation measures. Chapter 8.28 ACC also prohibits unreasonable noise levels. As conditioned and as regulated the proposal will not create any significant adverse noise impacts. 6. Adequacy of Infrastructure and Public Services. The proposal will be adequately served by public infrastructure. Drainage has already been addressed under adverse impacts above. In general, the streets, sidewalks, storm drainage facilities, and sewer mains will be required to meet the City's Design and Construction Standards in future engineering review. These facilities will be reviewed as pant of the facility extension, grading, and civil plans to be submitted by the Applicant. The following more specifically addresses other infrastructure and services: A. Water. Water will be provided by the Bonney Lake Water Service District. As conditioned the Applicant will provide a water availability certificate as part of the final plat application to show adequate water supply exists for the project. The project is conditioned to require the Applicant to provide for the most up to date methods of water conservation. B. Sewer. Sewer service will be provided by the City of Auburn Public Works Department, which already serves a subdivision across the street from the proposal. Each new single family home will be charged $1,353.14 at the time of building permit issuance to pay back the infrastructure development of the North Tapps Sewer Pump Station. The project is conditioned to require the Applicant to show construction plans for sewer stubs to the parcels adjacent to all sewer main extensions prior to the execution of a public facilities extension agreement. C. Transportation. Review by the City's Transportation Division finds that a traffic impact analysis was previously completed for this project as part of the Lakeland East plat process. Street frontage improvements along all adjoining roads have already been constructed, except for landscaping. Traffic impact fees are required at Agenda Subject: Lakeland Villas Plat; PLT12 -0001 Date: Tune 28, 2012 the current Lakeland residential fee rate of $ 1088.65 per Single family residence. The Applicant has provided the required landscaping in its proposed preliminary plat. Per City of Auburn Construction Standards Table 1 Finding of Fact No. 23 in the staff report provides that all street frontage improvements have been completed yet Condition 20 recommended in the staff report requires the Applicant to construct have street improvements for 0" Street. It is unclear if all of the 65'1' street improvements have in fact been constructed. The Applicant is expected to construct all frontage improvements required by City Code shall be completed prior to the approval of a final plat. Preliminary Plat p. 4 Findings, Conclusions and Decision ORD.D Page 250 of 324 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 10 -18 Summary Matrix of Minimum Street Design Requirements, internal roads of the proposed subdivision shall be constructed including a 50 foot right of way which will include a 28 foot paved surface, two 5.5 landscape strips, two 5 foot sidewalks, illumination, street trees and storm drainage. Parking is allowed on one side of the street only. "No Parking this side" signs, in accordance with City of Auburn standard details, shall be installed prior to City acceptance of road construction as "complete ". A cul -de -sac right of way width of 90 feet is required for the two cut -de -sacs proposed. The project is also conditioned to require the scheduling of construction traffic during off- peak hours to reduce congestion within the city. D. Sidewalks. All internal roads and all street frontages are or will be developed with sidewalks on both sides of the street. E. Schools. Adequate provisions are made for schools through the payment of school impact fees at the time of building permit issuance. This proposal is located in Auburn School District #408. A school access analysis has been performed by the Applicant for the subject property, and the analysis shows that the proposed neighborhood will be served by Auburn School Bus #408. The Applicant stated that due to the location the proposed plat would not support a school walking route, but that the neighborhood children would be served by school bus routes. F. Parks. The Lakeland Hills South PUD has 750 acres dedicated for park use. The subject property, as shown in Sheet 7 of Ex. 4, has 15,791 square feet dedicated for a park in the center of the subdivision. As conditioned this neighborhood park will be maintained by a homeowner's association required for the project. Although the staff report as corrected notes that 10,456 sq ft is required" for the proposal it doesn't identify where the requirement comes from so it is difficult to determine whether the parks provided by the project is adequate" under City standards. However, there is no evidence in the record to contest staffs finding that the parks provided by the project is adequate so it is determined for this decision that the 15,0791 square feet provided by the Applicant is sufficient to satisfy the demand for parks created by the project. G. Fire Protection. Demand placed upon the Valley Regional Fire Authority will be mitigated by the payment of applicable fire impact fees. The conditions of approval require a fire prevention plan for the construction of the proposal and also require that all the building constructed at the site be planned and designed to facilitate fire prevention. Fire hydrants and water mains capable of providing the required fire flow shall be provided in accordance with the City of Auburn Design Standards. Fire hydrant location shall be approved by the Fire Marshal. Auburn City Code 13.16.060(M) requires the maximum distance between hydrants for a single - family use district shall be 600 feet, Preliminary Plat p. 5 Findings, Conclusions and Decision ORD.D Page 251 of 324 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 measured as the fire vehicle lays its hose. This regulation will insure that any house in the area will be located within 300 feet of a fire hydrant. CONCLUSIONS OF LAW Procedural: 1. Authority of Hearing Examiner. ACC 14.03.030(F) provides the Hearing Examiner with the authority to conduct a hearing and make a final decision on applications for a preliminary plat. Substantive: 2. Zoning Designation. The property is zoned Lakeland Hills PUD SFD -5. 3. Review Criteria and Applicatio n. ACC 17.06.070 governs the criteria for preliminary plat approval. Relevant criteria are quoted below with corresponding conclusions of law. Preliminary Plat Standards: ACC 17.07.070(A): Adequate provisions are made for the public health, safety and general welfare and for open spaces, drainage nays, streets, alleys, other public ivays, water supplies, sanitary ivastes, parks, playgrounds and sites for schools and school grounds. 4. As identified in Finding of Fact No. 5 and 6, the proposal is adequately served by all public services and utilities required in the criterion above. As further determined in Finding of Fact No. 5 there are no adverse impacts associated with the proposal. Given the absence of any adverse impacts in conjunction with adequate public facilities, it is concluded that adequate provision is made for the public health, safety and welfare. ACC 17.07.070(B): Conformance of the proposed subdivision to the general purposes of the Comprehensive Plan. 5. The staff's analysis of consistency with the comprehensive plan at pages 13 -16 of the staff report is adopted and incorporated by this reference as if set forth in full.

The project is consistent with the purposes of the Land Division Ordinance as enumerated above. The roads designed for the project are safely designed to meet traffic demand and sidewalks on both sides of the subdivision street promote pedestrian safety. The Lakeland Hills South PUD ordinance provides for setbacks that provide for adequate light and air. The PUD ordinance prevents overcrowding by setting aside land for wetland protection and an extensive network of parks and open space. As previously discussed, the project is consistent with and implements the Auburn Comprehensive Plan. As previously determined the proposal is adequately served by all essential public facilities and it is consistent with the comprehensive plan. As conditioned the final plat development will require accurate legal description. Preliminary Plat uniform monumenting of new lots and conveyance by p. 7 Findings, Conclusions and Decision ORD.D Page 253 of 324 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 ACC 17.07.070(E): Conformance of the proposed subdivision to the Auburn Zoning Ordinance and any other applicable planning or engineering standards and spedfrcations as adopted by the City. 8. The proposed project meets the regulations outlined in ACC Section 18.76 Lakeland Hills PUD District'. The lots are designed to meeting the following requirements: Minimum lot width of 40 feet Minimum lot size of 2,370 square feet. The smallest lot is 3,083 square feet, the largest lot is 6,056 square feet, and the average of all the lots is 3,081 square feet. The future single family residences will be required to meet the minimum setbacks and lot coverage for SFD -5 as outlined in ACC 18.76 Planned Unit Development District (PUD) -- The streets, sidewalks, storm drainage facilities, and sewer mains will be required to meet the City's Design and Construction Standards. These facilities will be reviewed as part of the facility extension, grading, and civil plans to be submitted by the Applicant. ACC 17.07.070(F): The potential environrnental impacts of the proposed subdivision are mitigated such that the preliminary plat tivill not have an unacceptable adverse effect upon the quality of the environment. 9. As determined in Finding of Fact No. 5 there are no significant adverse impacts associated with the proposal. A determination of non - significance was also issued on June 6, 2012. ACC 17.07.070(G): Adequate provisions are made so the preliminary plat tivill prevent or abate public nuisances. 10. The City's detailed development standards and the extensive conditions of approval for this decision as well as those adopted by the City Council for the Lakeland Hills South PUD will make it unlikely that any public nuisance will be created or facilitated by subdivision design. Chapter 8.12 ACC authorizes the City to abate nuisances should any occur. DECISION The proposed preliminary plat, as described in the Ex. 1 -3, is approved subject to the following conditions: 1.

Background Summary: The City’s water supply plan is designed to provide adequate water to support expected population growth to the point when the City completely occupy’s its boundary. This point is know as full build-out and is expected to occur in approximately 2054. The water supply plan strategy to get the City to full build-out includes a combination of improving city owned water sources and purchasing wholesale water from other purveyors to meet the projected demands. The Cascade Water Alliance (Cascade) has water for sale and is making it available to the City at discounted rate utilizing the City’s existing connections with Tacoma Water (Tacoma). Cascade has two types of water supply available with the first being a permanent block of water known as the 4 Million Gallons per Day (MGD) of which the City would buy 2.5 million gallons per day (MGD). The second type is a temporary block of water known as the 6 MGD reserve supply of which Auburn would buy 2.736 MGD. The temporary 6 MGD reserve supply will need to be converted to permanent water at some point in the future. Converting temporary water to permanent water requires paying the difference between Cascade’s price and Tacoma’s permanent water system development costs. These costs are detailed in the reserve supply agreement. There are two purchase agreements accompanying the attached Resolution: Exhibit A permanent water supply agreement; Exhibit B reserve supply agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, IN CONSIDERATION of the recitals stated above, which are incorporated herein, and the mutual covenants and conditions herein contained, the Parties agree as follows: AGREEMENT 1. Definitions. “6 MGD Wholesale Water Supply” means an average annual of 6 MGD wholesale water supply from Tacoma, with a Peaking Factor of 1.33, and a maximum peak day of 7.98 MGD, all as provided in the Amended and Restated Agreement.

Purchase of 6 MGD System Development Charge Credit & Price. Subject to Section 5 of this Agreement, Auburn agrees to purchase and Cascade agrees to sell a System Development Charge Credit regarding the 6 MGD Wholesale Water Supply in a maximum quantity of up to 2.763 MGD annual supply capacity (3.68 MGD peak supply capacity).

If full payment of any annual payment is not received by Cascade on or before the date due, such payment shall be considered past due, and the unpaid amount shall accrue interest, from the date due until the date paid, at a rate per day equal to 0.03 percent per day. Upon not less than fifteen (15) days' advance notice to Cascade, the City may in any given year prepay without penalty any one or more of the next successive annual payments. Upon such notice, Cascade will provide Auburn documentation of the amount due for such payment, and adjustments to any remaining payment schedule, net of related interest incorporated into the above payment schedule. 5. Auburn Confirmation of Purchase Quantity & Termination Right On or before June 30, 2017, Auburn shall give notice to Cascade as to the specific quantity of the System Development Charge Credit that it will purchase, up to a maximum of 2.763 MGD annual supply capacity (3.68 MGD peak supply capacity). Auburn’s notice must identify and confirm one of the following three courses of action: RES.B Page 298 of 324 Page 5 of 11 a) Auburn confirms purchase of a System Development Charge Credit in the quantity of 2.763 MGD annual supply capacity (3.68 MGD peak supply capacity). b) Auburn confirms purchase of a System Development Charge Credit in a specific quantity less than 2.763 MGD annual supply capacity (peak supply capacity to be determined by Cascade). c) Auburn confirms that it will not purchase an SDC Credit as to the 6 MGD Wholesale Water Supply, in which event this Agreement shall terminate and, except for Section 9, be of no further force or effect. If Auburn fails to give such notice to Cascade by June 30, 2017, or by notice selects a quantity of zero (0.000 MGD), then no payment shall be due and this Agreement will terminate. . In order to facilitate communications, the Parties agree to meet and confer during the month of March 2017, or before, about status of water supply planning and this Agreement. 6. Notice of Confirmation of System Development Charge Credit. Within 30 days after Auburn gives its notice to Cascade under Section 5 of this Agreement, Cascade will send to the Tacoma Water Superintendent a Notice of Confirmation of System Development Charge Credit regarding the 6 MGD Wholesale Water Supply. Cascade will provide a copy of the Notice to Auburn when it is sent to Tacoma. 7. Terms and Conditions of 6 MGD System Development Charge Credit. Auburn acknowledges that, as stated in the Amended and Restated Agreement, Cascade has paid to Tacoma a capacity reservation fee (i.e., $1,570,074.00 per MGD) for the 6 MGD Wholesale Water Supply that Tacoma will recognize as an System Development Charge Credit if all requirements of the Amended and Restated Agreement and the Joint Letter are met. However, the capacity reservation fee paid to Tacoma by Cascade covers only a portion of the System Development Charge for the 6 MGD Wholesale Water Supply. Accordingly, Auburn specifically acknowledges and agrees that it will pay Tacoma the remaining balance of any System Development Charges owing for Auburn’s desired quantity, net of the SDC Credit obtained from Cascade. Auburn specifically acknowledges and agrees that Tacoma’s SDC could increase and that Auburn will bear any increase in Tacoma’s SDCs that may take effect before Auburn and Tacoma enter a wholesale water supply agreement. Auburn understands that additional SDC payments to Tacoma will be required to convert the 6 MGD Wholesale Water Supply to permanent supply, in the event Auburn elects to do so pursuant to a future Auburn-Tacoma agreement. As an example calculation of Auburn’s combined costs based on Tacoma’s current SDC, the Parties have included an illustrative example in Exhibit C attached hereto. Exhibit C is not binding on any Party or Tacoma, and Exhibit C contains assumptions about Tacoma’s SDC and interest rates in the future that may or may not turn out to be accurate. Accordingly, Cascade makes no representations or warranties about the accuracy of Exhibit C. RES.B Page 299 of 324 Page 6 of 11 8. Wholesale Water Supply Purchase Negotiations with Tacoma. In order to use the System Development Charge Credit and secure a wholesale water supply from Tacoma, Auburn acknowledges that it must make an offer, complete negotiations, and enter a wholesale water supply agreement with Tacoma consistent with the Joint Letter and Confirmation Notice set forth in Exhibit A and with the Amended and Restated Agreement. Auburn acknowledges and agrees that Cascade makes no representations or warranties as to the outcome of such negotiations, the Tacoma wholesale water supply that Auburn may (or may not) be able to purchase, or otherwise. 9. Effect on Four Cities Agreement. The Parties agree that this Agreement constitutes full performance by Cascade of its obligations under Section 3(a) of the Four Cities Agreement. Accordingly, Section 3(a) of the Four Cities Agreement shall be of no further force or effect as between Cascade and Auburn. Other provisions of the Four Cities Agreement are unaffected by this Agreement and remain effective according to their terms. This section 9 shall survive termination of the Agreement in the event that Auburn elects not to purchase an SDC Credit. 10. Notices. All notices and payments hereunder may be delivered or mailed.
