Administrativ e Recommendation:
City Council approve Change Order No. 2 in the amount of $100,000.00 to Contract No. 17-
02 for work on Project No. CP1507, Auburn Way North Preservation.
Background Summary:
Change Order No. 2 covers additional costs for traf f ic control labor and for temporary
pavement markings that were required during the time the existing pavement on Auburn Way
North between 22nd Street NE and 45th Street NE was ground of f awaiting for the new
pavement to be placed. With Auburn W ay North being a highly traveled corridor, and the
requirement to maintain traffic during work operations, the traffic control labor and temporary
markings f or the various lane adjustments required was much greater than anticipated.
A project increase of $100,000.00 within the 105 Street Preservation f und will be necessary,
however it will not require a budget adjustment since it is anticipated that the total budgeted
expenditures in the 105 Street Preservation fund will not be exceeded this year.

Administrativ e Recommendation:
City Council approve Change Order No. #3 in the amount of $55,000.00 and Final Pay
Estimate No. 11 to Contract No. 16-19 and accept construction of Project No. CP1522, 30th
Street NE Area Flooding, Phase 1B.
Background Summary:
The project scope included constructing a new 42-inch storm line from the intersection of
30th Street NE and ‘I’ Street NE to the existing Brannan Park Pump Station. The new storm
pipe replaced the existing 30-inch storm pipe to relieve street flooding that results f rom the
limited capacity of the existing 30-inch line to convey the storm water to its current Brannan
Park Pump Station discharge point. This project is a continuation of the 30th Street NE Area
Flooding Phase 1A project, where a new 42-inch storm line was installed along 30th Street
NE from ‘C’ Street NE to ‘I’ Street NE in Summer of 2015. The project also included a joint
utility trench within a private alleyway for PSE and Comcast work.
Change Order No. 3 allocates additional f unds to the Contract to address contractor invoices
related to erosion control measures, unsuitable soils excavation and changes to the
f oundation material in the utility trenches, and additional restoration of private properties within
the existing storm easement area.
A project budget contingency of $5,082.20 remains in the 462 Storm Fund.

I. Background
The Planning Commission conducted two hearings on Comprehensive Plan Annual
Amendments, consisting of map and policy/text amendments.
At its October 18, 2017 public hearing, the Planning Commission considered the following
set of Annual Comprehensive Plan Amendments:

P/T #1 – Incorporate Auburn School District Capital Facilities Plan
P/T #2 – Incorporate Dieringer School District Capital Facilities Plan
P/T #3 – Incorporate Federal Way School District Capital Facilities Plan
P/T #4 – Incorporate Kent School District Capital Facilities Plan
P/T #5 – Incorporate City of Auburn Capital Facilities Plan
P/T #6 - Remove the discussion of a "Mixed Use" land use designation from the text of
the Plan and from the Land Use Map. The R10, R16, and R20 residential
zoning districts already allow for mixed uses (comprised of residential &
commercial) as permitted uses (See Table 18.07.020, Permitted Use Table ).
P/T #7 - Add text to add back the R5, Residential zoning district back in as an
implementing zone for the "Single Family" Land Use Designation. The 2015
Comp Plan this zone was inadvertently omitted as an implementing zoning
district of any Comp. Plan land use designation and must be corrected.
P/T #8 - Change the title of the land use designation of "Residential Transition" to
"Moderate Density Residential". Requested to revert to pre-2015 title of the
category. Provide a distinct and logical title for the category to address and
reflect the range of residential densities.
P/T #9 - Add the "R-10, Residential" and R-16, Residential" zoning districts back as
implementing zones for the "Residential Transition" or if recommended, to the
"Moderate Density Residential" Land Use Designation. In the 2015, Comp Plan
these zoning districts were inadvertently omitted as an implementing zoning
districts of any Comp. Plan land use designation.
B. Map (CPM) Amendments (CPA17-0001 – City-Initiated)
CPM #1 - Remove the discussion of a “Mixed Use" land use designation from the text of
the Plan and remove category from the Land Use Map. "The R-10, R-16 and R-
20 residential zoning districts already allow for mixed uses residential &
commercial) as permitted uses (See Table 18.07.020, Permitted Use Table).
(See also related P/T #6)
CPM #2 - Change the mapped land use designation of a 2.23-acre city-owned park
parcel from "Multiple Family Residential" to "Institutional". Parcel No.

previously developed parcels from "Downtown Urban Center" to "Light Industrial"
to recognize and be more compatible with developed status of the properties at

In short, with conclusion of the two hearings the Planning Commission has forwarded its
recommendation for “approval” to the City Council on all of the year 2017 Comprehensive Plan
Amendments.
At the November 27, 2017 City Council Study Session, the Council reviewed and discussed the
set of annual comprehensive plan amendments and four associated rezones (zoning map
amendments).

II. Comprehensive Plan Related Findings
1. The purpose of the City’s Comprehensive Plan is to provide a policy basis for development
regulations to ensure that the Comprehensive Plan and implementing regulations are
consistent, as required by the Washington State Growth Management Act (GMA) and the
following City Code provision:

“14.22.050 Conformance and consistency.
The zoning, land division and other development codes contained or referenced within Auburn
City Code shall be consistent with and implement the intent of the comprehensive plan. Capital
budget decisions shall be made in conformity with the comprehensive plan.”
2. RCW 36.70A.130 (The Washington State Growth Management Act (GMA)) provides the
process for amendments to locally adopted GMA-compliant comprehensive plans. Except in
limited circumstances provided for in State law and repeated in City Code Section
14.22.060, comprehensive plan amendments shall be considered by the city no more
frequently than once per year.
3. The City of Auburn established a Friday, June 9, 2017 deadline for the submittal of private-
initiated comprehensive plan applications (map or policy/text). Notice to the public of the
application filing deadline was provided on the City’s website, published in the Seattle Times
Newspaper, and sent to a compiled notification list in April 2017. The City received only one
private-initiated plan map amendment (Nexus Youth & Families CPA17-0002 & REZ17-
0001). The City received no applications for policy/text amendments by the submittal
deadline.
4. The City of Auburn received annual updates to the four school district Capital Facilities
Plans whose districts occur within the City of Auburn. These Capital Facilities Plans, as well
as the City’s Capital Facilities Plan are referenced in the Capital Facilities element, of the
Auburn Comprehensive Plan and are processed as Policy/Text (P/T) amendments.
5. The environmental review under the State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA) for the school
district capital facilities plans were prepared individually by each school district acting as
their own lead agency, as allowed by state law.
6. The City conducted the environmental review under the State Environmental Policy Act
(SEPA) for the city-initiated policy/text and map amendments. This resulted in a
Determination of Non-Significance (DNS) (File #SEP17-0014) issued for the City-initiated
Comprehensive Plan Amendments on September 19, 2017. The comment period ended
October 3, 2017 and the appeal period ended October 17, 2017. The City did not receive
any comments in response to the issuance of the Determination of Non-Significance (DNS).
A copy of the DNS and environmental checklist application is provided in the working binder.
Also, the City conducted the environmental review under the State Environmental Policy Act
(SEPA) for the private-initiated Comprehensive Plan Map Amendment (File #CPA 17-0002)
and Rezone. This resulted in a Determination of Non-Significance (DNS) (File # SEP17-
0012), for the Comprehensive Plan amendment and Rezone request issued on August 24,
2017. The comment period ended September 8, 2017 and the appeal period ended
September 22, 2017. One public comment was submitted (See Exhibit 8 under “CPA 17-
0002” at end of working binder); no appeal was filed.
7. Auburn City Code Chapter 14.22, (Amendments) outlines the process for submittal of
private-initiated amendments and the general processing of comprehensive plan
amendments as follows:

“Section 14.22.100, (Public Hearing Required by Planning Commission.)
A. The planning commission shall hold at least one public hearing on all proposed
amendments to the comprehensive plan. Notice of such public hearing shall be given
pursuant to Chapter 1.27 ACC and, at a minimum, include the following:
1. For site-specific plan map amendments:
a. Notice shall be published once in the official newspaper of the city not
less than 10 calendar days prior to the date of public hearing;
b. Notice shall be mailed by first class mail to all property owners of record
within a radius of 300 feet of the proposed map amendment request, not
less than 10 calendar days prior to the public hearing;
2. For area-wide plan map amendments:
a. Notice shall be published once in the official newspaper of the city not
less than 10 calendar days prior to the date of public hearing;
b. Notice shall be mailed by first class mail to all property owners of record
within the area subject to the proposed amendment;
c. Notice shall be posted in at least two conspicuous locations in the area
subject to the proposed amendment not less than 10 calendar days prior
to the date of the public hearing.
B. Notwithstanding the above, the director may expand the minimum noticing provisions
noted above as deemed necessary.
C. Planning Commission Recommendation. The planning commission shall conduct a
public hearing on all potential comprehensive plan amendments and shall make and
forward a recommendation on each to the city council. The planning commission
shall adopt written findings and make a recommendation consistent with those
findings to the city council.
D. The city council, if it elects to amend the comprehensive plan, shall adopt written
findings and adopt said amendments by ordinance.
E. State Review. All comprehensive plan amendments considered by the planning
commission shall be forwarded for state agency review consistent with RCW
36.70A.106.
F. Any appeal of an amendment to the comprehensive plan shall be made in
accordance with Chapter 36.70A RCW. (Ord. 6172 § 1, 2008.)”
8. Thus, Comprehensive Plan amendments are initially reviewed during a public hearing
process before the City of Auburn Planning Commission, who then provides a
recommendation to the City Council for final action. City Council consideration and action
on the amendments generally occurs, but is not required, prior to the end of the year.
9. Pursuant to RCW 36.70A.106, the proposed comprehensive plan amendments outlined in
this agenda bill were sent to the Washington State Office of Commerce and other state
agencies as required for the 60-day state review. No comments have been received from
the Washington State Department of Commerce or other state agencies as of the writing of
this report.
10. Due to the nature of the city-initiated amendments and the scope and limited number of
private-initiated amendments, the optional process available in the city code for staff to hold
a public open house was not conducted.

11. With the City adoption of a substantially revised Comprehensive Plan in December 2015,
the need for some policy/text amendments and map amendments is needed to correct some
inadvertent changes. The changes are necessary to increase the consistency of the
Comprehensive Plan and zoning as required by ACC 14.22.050, “Conformance and
Consistency”. Each of the Policy/Text (P/T) and map (CPM) changes are shown in
greater detail behind the respective tabs of the ‘Working Binder’.
12. Three public notices were provided for the two different hearings. A public hearing notice
was published on October 5, 2017 in the Seattle Times newspaper which is at least 10-days
prior to the Planning Commission public hearing conducted on October 18, 2017 and public
hearing notices were published on October 17, 2017 (CPA17-0002-The private-initiated map
amendment was noticed separately.) and on October 21, 2017 (CPA17-0001) in the Seattle
Times newspaper which is at least 10-days prior to the Planning Commission public hearing
conducted on November 1, 2017.
III. Zoning Code Related Findings
13. In June 2017 the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 6655 which allows the Planning
Commission and City Council to consider associated map changes (for Comprehensive Plan
and Zoning map amendments), concurrently. This eliminates the need for the rezone
(zoning map amendment) to subsequently be heard and decided by the Hearing Examiner
through a separately scheduled hearing when it is related to a Comprehensive Plan map
amendment.
14. Chapter 18.68 ACC (Zoning) Amendments)) outlines the process for submittal of private-
initiated zoning amendments and the process. Per ACC 18.68.030(B)(1)(b), when the
Planning Commission is considering a rezone (zoning map amendment) which requires a
Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map amendment, the public hearings shall be conducted
concurrently and a recommendation on both shall be forwarded to the City Council.

According to communication from Tanya Nascimento, Student & Demographic Forecaster of
the Federal Way Public Schools, there are several factors which have driven the multiple
family impact fees to increase quite significantly in this plan. One factor is the steady
increase in observed multiple-family student generation rates. In 2015, the first of three
multi-family developments was opened and fully occupied in the City of Federal Way. The
second was opened and occupied in late 2016 and the third was opened in fully occupied in
summer of 2017. The first two developments have been included in the generation rate
calculation for this plan. The specific generation rates can be found on Page 29. These
multiple-family complexes are generating more than one student per unit which is
significantly higher than past developments within the school district.
In addition to the high student generation rates, the district completed work with its Facilities
Planning Committee which determined a need for additional capacity at a number of
schools. As a result of this work, Phase II of the District’s plan will be placed on the
November ballot for a bond request. The facilities impacted during Phase II can be found on
Page 7 of the Capital Facilities Plan. Anticipated funding for this project can be found on the
Six-Year Finance Plan on Page 9. The Finance Plan outlines the anticipated timeline for
beginning and completion of the various projects. It is important to note that not all projects
within Phase II will create additional capacity. Only costs associated with increasing needed
capacity are used in the formula for calculating Impact Fees. The specific cost calculations
are outlined on Page 32 of the Capital Facilities Plan.

Incorporate the City of Auburn’s 6-year Capital Facilities Plan 2018-2023, into the City’s
Comprehensive Plan.
Discussion
A Capital Facilities Plan is one of the comprehensive plan elements required by the Washington
State Growth Management Act (GMA) (RCW 36.70A). More specifically, RCW 36.70A.070(3)
of the GMA requires the following:
“A capital facilities plan element consisting of:
(a) An inventory of existing capital facilities owned by public entities, showing the
locations and capacities of the capital facilities;
(b) a forecast of the future needs of such capital facilities;
(c) the proposed locations and capacities of expanded or new capital facilities;
(d) at least a six-year plan that will finance such capital facilities within projected
funding capacities and clearly identifies sources of public money for such
purposes; and
(e) a requirement to reassess the land use element if probable funding falls short
of meeting existing needs and to ensure that the land use element, capital
facilities plan element, and financing plan within the capital facilities plan element
are coordinated and consistent. Park and recreation facilities shall be included in
the capital facilities plan element.”
A capital facility is defined as a structure, street or utility system improvement, or other long-
lasting major asset, including land. Capital facilities are provided for public purposes. Capital
facilities include, but are not limited to, the following: streets, roads, highways, sidewalks, street
and road lighting systems, traffic signals, domestic water systems, storm and sanitary sewer
systems, parks and recreation facilities, and police and fire protection facilities. These capital
facilities include necessary ancillary and support facilities.
The memo dated September 27, 2017 prepared by the City’s Finance Department contained in
the working binder highlights the major changes in the CFP from last year’s CFP by projects
completed (removed) and projects added. The City of Auburn 6-year Capital Facilities Plan
2018-2023 is proposed to be incorporated by reference in the Comprehensive Plan, Capital
Facilities Element (Volume No. 3).

Planning Commission recommended approval of the City of Auburn’s 6-year Capital Facilities
Plan 2018-2023 to the City Council.

Remove the discussion of a "Mixed Use" land use designation from the text of the Plan and
from the Land Use Map. The R-10, R-16, and R-20 Residential zoning districts already
allow for mixed uses (comprised of residential & commercial) as permitted uses (See Table
18.07.020, Permitted Use Table).
Discussion
The Land Use Element (Volume No. 1) of the Comprehensive Plan at Page LU-6 provides
for a mapped land use designation of “Mixed Use”. This designation is found under the

heading of “Residential Land Use Designations” (Page LU-2), so it is appropriately
predominantly a “residential” designation. This focus is reinforced by the stated ‘description’
and ‘designation criteria’ of the Comprehensive Plan, which say:
“Description
This category shall be applied to those areas that are either now developed or are
reserved for multiple family dwellings. Densities may range from 20 to 24 units per acre.
These communities are served by transit, have non-motorized connections to
surrounding amenities and services, or have access to on-site nonresidential amenities
and services.”
“Designation Criteria
1. Previously developed high-density residential; or
2. Properties that are connected to single-family and nonresidential designations by the
Residential Transition designation or are adjacent to the Multifamily designation, and
meet the development parameters of the mixed-use designation.”
However, the R-10, R-16, and R-20 Residential zoning districts already allow for mixed uses
(comprised of residential & other uses) as permitted uses (See Table 18.07.020, Permitted
Use Table ).
Table 18.07.020
Permitted Use Table – Residential Zoning Designations (Excerpt)
Also, at Section ACC 18.04.625, the Code provides the following definition of “mixed use
development”:
“18.04.625 Mixed-use development.
“Mixed-use development” means a single unified development that incorporates the planned
integration of two or more different land uses consisting of some combination of office, light
industrial, hotel, retail, entertainment, public uses, along with residential uses . Mixed-use
development may be vertically oriented in one or more buildings, or horizontally distributed on a
development site. When horizontally distributed, the different uses may be constructed
concurrently and in separate phases, and should incorporate common and/or complementary

features and/or elements such as pedestrian walkways, access driveways, parking areas,
architectural themes, or other techniques that provide integration between uses on the site.”
The Comprehensive plan language goes on to provide that this designation would be
implemented by the “Mixed Use Residential” zoning district. This zoning classification does
not currently exist and there are no properties that have this zoning classification or a “Mixed
Use” land use map designation; therefore elimination of the "Mixed Use" land use
designation from the text of the Plan and from the Land Use Map does not negatively affect
any properties. It also does not reduce development potential since mixed use is already
allowed by the zoning code. Mixed use is currently allowed in the same areas that are
described as appropriate for the designation.
Staff does not question the value of having portions of the city where mixed use
development is allowed, but does not require a unique comprehensive plan designation to
achieve. See Exhibit: “Excerpt of Volume 1 – Land Use Element”, Page 4 in the working
binder
PLANNING COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION
Planning Commission recommended approval of the text amendment to remove the
discussion of a "Mixed Use" land use designation from the text of the Plan to the City
Council, as presented by staff.
P/T #7
Add text to add back the R-5, Residential zoning district back in as an implementing zone for
the "Single Family Residential" Land Use Designation. A significant portion of the city is
zoned R-5, Residential. In the 2015 Comp Plan this zone was inadvertently omitted as an
implementing zoning district of any Comprehensive Plan land use designation and must be
corrected.
Discussion
The Land Use Element (Volume No. 1) of the Comprehensive Plan at Page LU-4 provides
for a mapped land use designation of “Single Family Residential”. This designation is found
under the heading of “Residential Land Use Designations” (Page LU-2). The stated
‘description’ and ‘designation criteria’ of this land use designation provides:
“Description
This designation is the predominant land use category in the City. Maintaining and
creating a diverse arrangement of interconnected subdivisions, neighborhoods, and
communities that have a mix of densities and housing types; linkages with other
residential areas and commercial hubs through non-motorized modes, such as
pedestrian and bicycling, and vehicular modes will be encouraged.”
“Designation Criteria
1. Previously developed single-family residential areas;
2. Undeveloped areas that do not meet the designation criteria for other Residential,
Commercial, Industrial, or Public/Quasi- Public designations; or
3. Residential Conservancy areas that contain limited critical areas, are served by public
utilities (water, sewer, storm services), and meet the development parameters of the
single-family designation.”

Residential 7 (7 dwelling units per acre): All properties not located within the Urban

The R-5 Residential (Five dwelling units per acre) zoning classification is not currently
identified as an implementing zoning district for any comprehensive plan land use
designation and needs to be. A significant portion of the city is zoned R-5, Residential. In
the 2015 Comprehensive Plan this zone was inadvertently omitted as an implementing
zoning district of any Comprehensive Plan land use designation and must be corrected by
adding the R-5, Residential (Five dwelling units per acre) zoning classification as an
implementing zoning district for the “Single Family Residential” land use designation. Some
other minor wording corrections proposed by staff are also shown. See exhibit “Excerpt of
Volume 1 – Land Use Element”, Page 1, in the working binder.
PLANNING COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION
Planning Commission recommended approval of the text amendment to add a listing of
R-5 Residential zoning district as an implementing zone of the “Single Family
Residential” land use designation.
P/T #8
Change the title of the land use designation of "Residential Transition" to "Moderate Density
Residential". It is requested to revert to pre-2015 title of the category. Provide more logical
title for the category to address and reflect the range of residential densities. The
implementing zones "R-10, Residential" and "R-16, Residential" are proposed to be added.
Discussion
The Land Use Element (Volume No. 1) of the Comprehensive Plan at Page LU-5 provides
for a land use designation of “Residential Transition”. This was formerly the “Moderate
Density Residential” designation prior to adoption of the updated Comprehensive Plan in
2015. It is requested to revert to the pre-2015 title of the category since the ‘description’ and
‘designation criteria’ remain similar. The stated ‘description’ and ‘designation criteria’ of this
land use designation in the latest Plan provides:
“Description
Residential transition areas are planned to accommodate moderate densities of varying
residential dwelling types. Varying intensities within a transition area may be permitted
based on adjacent density, intensity, and/or character. Appropriate densities in these
areas range from 7 to 20 dwelling units per acre. Dwelling types generally range from
single-family dwelling to multiple-family dwellings, with larger structures allowed (within
the density range) where offsetting community benefits can be identified.”
“Designation Criteria
1. Previously developed moderate density residential areas; or
2. Areas that provide a transition between single-family and multifamily, single-family
and nonresidential, multifamily and nonresidential zones or development are adjacent
and meet the development parameters of the Residential Transition designation.”

The reversion back to the former name provides a distinct and logical title for the category to
address and reflect the range of residential densities. The name change also avoids
confusion that would likely occur to potential users by the similarly sounding “Residential
Transition Overlay” that was also part of the changes made in the 2015 Comprehensive
Plan. Also, the description does not provide for any different uses to serve as a ‘transition’,
only intermediate residential densities.

zones for the "Residential Transition" or if recommended, to the "Moderate Density
Residential" Land Use Designation. Areas of the city are zoned "R-10, Residential" but no
areas are currently zoned "R-16, Residential". However, in the 2015, Comp Plan these
zoning districts were inadvertently omitted as an implementing zoning districts of any
Comprehensive Plan land use designation. To be corrected by adding R-10 and R-16 as
implementing zones to either the "Residential Transition" or "Moderate Density" Land Use
Designation.
Discussion
The Land Use Element (Volume No. 1) of the Comprehensive Plan at Page LU-5 provides
for a land use designation of “Residential Transition”. This was formerly the “Moderate
Density Residential” designation prior to adoption of the updated Comprehensive Plan in
2015. The title of the category is proposed to change as requested in the preceding text
amendment, P/T #8.
The implementing zones "R-10, Residential" and "R-16, Residential" are proposed to be
added as implementing zoning districts. The City currently contains properties zoned R-10
Residential; however, there are no properties currently zoned R-16, Residential. The R-10
Residential and R-16 Residential are not currently identified as implementing zoning districts
for any comprehensive plan land use designation and needs to be. The "R-10, Residential"
and "R-16, Residential" are proposed as implementing zoning districts for the “Moderate
Density Residential” land use designation. Some other minor corrections to the wording of
this section as proposed by staff are shown. See exhibit “Excerpt of Volume 1 – Land Use
Element”, Page 2.
PLANNING COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION
Planning Commission recommended approval of the text amendment to add a listing of
R-10 Residential and R-16 Residential zoning districts as implementing zones of the
"Residential Transition" or if recommended, to the "Moderate Density Residential" Land
Use Designation.

Comprehensive Plan Map (CPM) Amendments (File No. CPA17-0001, City initiated)
CPM #1
Remove the discussion of a “Mixed Use" land use designation from the text of the Plan and
remove category from the Land Use Map (This is the same as P/T #6, above). The R-10, R-
16 and R-20 residential zoning districts already allow for mixed uses residential &
commercial) as permitted uses (See Table 18.07.020, Permitted Use Table). Thus it was
unnecessary to establish a unique land use designation to achieve a zoning district to allow.
Discussion
(This is the same topic as policy/text amendment P/T #6, but is repeated as a map
amendment since it requires revision to both the text and map of the comprehensive plan
document. See discussion and analysis under text amendment P/T #6. Also, note that a
map is not provided as an Exhibit since the “Mixed Use” is not shown on any properties on
the map; except in the legend because it does not apply to any properties.)
PLANNING COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION
Planning Commission recommended approval of the map amendment to remove the "Mixed
Use" land use designation from the Comprehensive Plan map (Map No. 1.1).
CPM #2
Change the mapped land use designation of a 0.98-acre city-owned park parcel from
"Multiple Family Residential" to "Institutional". Parcel No. 0921059073 is located south of
SE 310th ST, 820 feet west of 124th Ave SE.
Discussion
In 1996 the 0.98-acre property was part of a larger 2.23-acre property ownership by
Schneider Homes Inc. that was proposed for development as the ‘Pasafino Apartments’
while in unincorporated King County prior to annexation to the City of Auburn. In 1996 a
‘Petition for Annexation Agreement and Declaration of Covenant’ was executed between the
City and Schneider Homes Inc. in order for the City to provide water and sewer services to
the proposed apartment development located outside the city, but within the city’s
established utility service area. An ‘Amended Petition for Annexation Agreement and
Declaration of Covenant’ was executed on April 21, 1997. The Agreements provided that as
a condition of the City providing utility services, Schneider Homes Inc. would develop a park,
and after annexation, convey the developed park land to the City of Auburn without
obligation or cost. At the time of transfer, the city parks department would assume
maintenance responsibility. The property was annexed to the City of Auburn effective in
2008 by Ordinance No. 6121; however, the transfer of ownership of the park land did not
take place for many more years since the park land was not a separate parcel that could be
deeded separately to the City. A Boundary Line Adjustment (BLA) application (File #BLA14-
0005) was filed by Schneider Homes Inc. in May of 2014 to establish the park land as a
separate parcel. The processing of the BLA was delayed due to changes in property
ownership interest on the part of Schneider Homes Inc. for refinancing purposes. The BLA

was subsequently approved by the City and recorded on November 2, 2016 (Recording
#20161102900004) and the property subsequently conveyed to the City.
It was previously appropriate to have the Comprehensive Plan land use designation of
“Multiple “Family Residential" applicable to the site when it was privately-owned and part of
a larger parcel that is mainly developed with apartments. However, now that Parcel No.
0921059073 is a separate parcel, owned by the City and developed for park purposes, it is
appropriate for it to have an “Institutional” land use designation by the Comprehensive Plan
consistent with other park properties.
PLANNING COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION
Planning Commission recommended approval of the map amendment to change the
mapped land use designation of 0.98-acre city-owned park parcel (Parcel No.
0921059073) from "Multiple Family Residential" to "Institutional" (Map No 1.1).

The sites have a “Downtown Urban Center" land use designation by the Comprehensive
Plan and are zoned DUC, Downtown Urban Center. The contiguous sites are located at the
northern edge of the “Downtown Urban Center" land use designation and bordered to the
north and the east by properties with an industrial designation. The sites align in a row north
to south and are bordered by public streets of C ST NW to the west; 3rd ST NW to the north
and by the Burlington Northern railroad to the east. The automobile body shop of A-1
Collision borders the sites to the south.
The two largest parcels, Parcel No. 5401600175 (0.7 acres) and Parcel No. 5401600235
(0.34 acres) have been developed for more than 25 years with structures and facilities that
are more appropriate characterized as “industrial uses” than suburban downtown
development. The configuration and location of the properties sandwiched between
transportation corridors makes them less suitable for redevelopment as downtown service or
retail type uses geared to leisure shopping. Also, due to the number of zoning inquiries, the
City staff has increasing become aware of the difficulty of the property owner in finding
tenants that can occupy the former farm supply building and meet the zoning use
regulations of the DUC zoning district. Also, few uses are capable of using the building with
limited physical alterations in order to avoid triggering consistency with Downtown Design
Standards and significant upgrades.

Comprehensive Plan Map (CPM) Amendments (File No. CPA17-0001, City initiated)
CPM #4
Change the mapped land use designation of south part of 2.15-acre, privately-owned,
developed parcel from "Residential Transition" to "Heavy Commercial".
Discussion
The 2.15-acre property was previously a smaller parcel and the comprehensive plan
designation boundary followed this original property boundary. In 2004, a boundary line
adjustment application was filed (File No. LLA04-0010), approved by the City, and recorded
(Recording No. 20040712003209). The boundary line adjustment expanded the parcel
boundary to include additional area to the south. The Comprehensive Plan land use
designation boundary was not simultaneously changed to correspond to the property
boundary change. In the intervening time, the fence contractor business has using the
expansion area as part of their yard. It is appropriate to make the change to avoid split
designation of a parcel where warranted by existing development pattern and setting. The
“Residential Transition” designation makes up a smaller portion of the lot, while the balance
is used by a fencing contractor. As shown on the map below, the designation change is
consistent with adjacent property located to the west.
Staff Recommendation
Planning Commission to recommend approval of a map amendment CPM #4 to change the
mapped land use designation of the southern part of a 2.15-acre, privately-owned, parcel
from "Residential Transition" to "Heavy Commercial" (Parcel No. 8695200020).

changes, the properties were assigned an “Open Space” land use designation. These
properties are city–owned developed parks and contain play areas and active recreational
space. And the “Open Space” land use designation is not appropriate to apply to these
properties based on the discussion and clarification that occurred with the Planning
Commission during discussion of the “OS, Open Space zoning district in July and August of
this year. The land use designation is inconsistent with the designation criteria and purpose
of the "Open Space" land designation of the Comprehensive Plan (e.g. cemeteries and
active and mainly developed parks should not be designated "Open Space"). Also, for most
parcels the zoning map classification also needs to change from “OS, Open Space” to “I,
Institutional” to agree.
Staff Recommendation
Planning Commission to recommend approval of a map amendment CPM #6 to change the
mapped land use designation of multiple City-owned, parks properties from "Open Space" to
"Institutional" land use designation and to change the zoning designation (File No. REZ17-
0002), to correspond to the “I, Institutional” implementing zoning classification, except for
Parcel Nos. 1821059327, 1821059117, & 8581400530 which are already zoned: “I,

zoning designation of “C, Commercial” was a result of an application for zone change
requested by Mr. Clayton and approved by the City of Pacific in Aug ust of 1992 by
Ordinance No. 1177 (The rezone was to the zoning classification of “BC, Business
Commercial” which subsequently became “C, Commercial”.) At annexation to the City of
Auburn, the property assumed an “R-5, Residential” zoning designation by default, while the
comprehensive plan designation was made “Light Commercial”.
Of late, Mr. Clayton has been contacting the City almost annually requesting that the city
initiate a change in the zoning designation back to a commercial category. He has always
had the ability to submit a private application to initiate the zoning map change himself, and
has been advised of this, but was reluctant.
The ‘working binder’ under the ‘Map Amendments’ tab and CPM #8, contains a letter from
Mr. Clayton dated July 18, 2017 and supporting information in which he describes the
history and his request to have the zoning changed.
The southern parcel prior to 2015 had a comprehensive plan designation of “Light
Commercial” and was previously was zoned “R-5, Residential”. These 2 parcels are the
only parcels on the east side of A ST SE, in the vicinity that have a Comprehensive Plan
designation of “Single Family Residential”. The adjacent properties to the south were
changed to “light Industrial” due to private com plan application last year. The properties to
the north have a comprehensive plan designation of “Institutional”.
While the comprehensive plan designation was changed in 2015 to “Single Family
Residential”, to align with the property’s R-5 Residential zoning, it is the zoning classification
that should have been changed. The City now seeks to rectify the circumstances by
changing the both the comprehensive plan designation and zoning for both parcels

2. The Comprehensive Plan amendment seeks to change the designation of three parcels from “Single
Family Residential” with a “Residential Transition Overlay” to “Light Commercial”. The parcels are
King Co. Parcel Nos. 192105-9142, 192105-9145, and 192105-9077; and the addresses are 911 ‘H’
St. SE, 915 ‘H’ St. SE, and 921 ‘H’ St. SE. The three parcels total approximately 0.72 acres. See
Exhibit 10.
3. Similarly, the Rezone (zoning map amendment) seeks to change the classification of the same three
parcels from “R-7, Residential Seven Dwelling Units per Acre” to “C-1, Light Commercial”. The
parcels are King Co. Parcel Nos. 192105-9142, 192105-9145, and 192105-9077; and the addresses
are 911 ‘H’ St. SE, 915 ‘H’ St. SE, and 921 ‘H’ St. SE. See Exhibit 11.
4. As indicated by the Applicant’s narratives (See Exhibit 12 and Exhibit 13), the requested changes are
to accommodate future expansion of the Nexus Youth & Families Campus. Nexus Youth & Families
(formerly Auburn Youth Resources (AYR)) is a non-profit organization that provides mental health
counseling for youth, groups and families through chemical dependency prevention, treatment and
aftercare and homeless services of emergency shelter, intercept homeless youth through a street
outreach program and provide supportive housing across South King County. The facilities at this
location include a clinic, 2 administrative buildings, 2 youth shelters, storage buildings, and the
Arcadia House which will be under construction soon (Arcadia House is a replacement building for an
existing supportive house, which will be demolished). See Exhibit 14 for reference.
5. At its ultimate buildout, the Nexus Campus will intend to serve homeless youth and single mothers
through provision of permanent supportive housing, clinic services, and case management and
support services. Nexus has also requested in the Rezone request for a new use to be added to the
C-1, Light Commercial zoning district that fully encompasses their proposed uses; this text
amendment will be subsequently considered under a separate application and presented to Planning
Commission after review of the 2017 Comprehensive Plan amendments have been completed.

COMPREHENSIVE PLAN RELATED – CONCLUSIONS:
The City code provides that applicant requesting a comprehensive plan amendment must
demonstrate that the request complies with the following decision criteria:
“ACC 14.22.110 Decision criteria for plan amendments.
A. The comprehensive plan was developed and adopted after significant
study and public participation. The principles, goals, objectives and policies
contained therein shall be granted substantial weight when considering a
proposed amendment. Therefore, the burden of proof for justifying a proposed
amendment rests with the applicant, who must demonstrate that the request
complies with and/or relates to the following decision criteria:
1. The proposed change will further and be consistent with the goals and
objectives of the plan and the plan will remain internally consistent;
2. Whether the capacity to provide adequate services is diminished or
increased;
3. Assumptions upon which the comprehensive plan is based are found to
be invalid;
4. A determination of change or lack of change in conditions or
circumstances has occurred since the adoption of the latest amendment to the
specific section of the comprehensive plan that dictates the need for a proposed
amendment;
5. If applicable, a determination that a question of consistency exists
between the comprehensive plan and Chapter 36.70A RCW, the countywide
planning policies for either King and/or Pierce County, as appropriate, and Vision
2040: Growth and Transportation Strategy for the Puget Sound Region.”
These criteria are repeated in bold below, followed by a Staff Analysis indicated in italics. The Applicant’s
responses to these criteria are included as Exhibit 12.
Criterion #1 – ACC 14.22.110(A)(1): The proposed change will further and be consistent with the
goals and objectives of the plan and the plan will remain internally consistent.
Staff Analysis: The Comprehensive Plan (Land Use Element, Page LU-9) provides the following
explanation for the “Light Commercial” Land Use Designation:
“Light Commercial
Description
This category represents the prime commercial designation for small to moderate scale
commercial activities. These commercial areas should be developed in a manner, which is
consistent with and attracts pedestrian oriented activities. Such areas should enc ourage
walkability, leisure shopping, engaging public space, and should provide other amenities
conducive to attracting shoppers.
Designation Criteria
1. Previously developed light commercial areas buffered from more intense commercial or
industrial designations by landscaping or environmental features; or
2. Located along arterial or collector streets;
3. Properties that are buffered from the Single Family designation by landscaping, environmental
features, or the Residential Transition designation; and
4. Meets the development parameters of the Light Commercial designation.

Implementing Zoning Designations
Light Commercial
Policies
Policy LU-60. A wide range of consumer-oriented goods and services are compatible within this
designation since creating an attractive shopping environment is a primary
emphasis. Permitted uses would consist of local-serving and community-serving
retail trade, offices, personal services, eating establishments, financial
institutions, governmental offices, and similar uses.
Policy LU-61. Parking lots must be located and designed in a manner that softens their
appearance from adjacent public roads. This is accomplished through
landscaping, pedestrian spaces, and the location of buildings on the property.
Where practicable, low impact development techniques and landscaping should
be used to promote on site stormwater infiltration and shading of hard surfaces.
Minimum and maximum parking ratios must be established for each type of
permitted use.
Policy LU-62. Development incentives should be established that encourage the creation of
electric car charging stations, use of sustainable building and/or operational
practices, development of non-motorized infrastructure, and proximity and
connection to public transit.
Policy LU-63. Multiple family dwellings are only allowed as part of mixed-use developments
where they do not interfere with the shopping character of the area, such as
within the upper stories of buildings.
Policy LU-64. Drive in windows should only be allowed accessory to a permitted use, and only
when carefully sited under the administrative use process, in order to ensure that
an area's pedestrian environment is not compromised.
Policy LU-65. Large scale regional retail uses and uses which rely on direct access by veh icles
or involve heavy truck traffic (other than for merchandise delivery) are not
appropriate in this category.
Policy LU-66. Unsightly outdoor storage and similar activities should be prohibited.
Policy LU-67. Encourage adaptive reuse, particularly of historic properties.
Policy LU-68. Upzone requests to the next zone should be approved based on the innovations
in transportation and stormwater management and public amenities proposed for
the development associated with the request.”
Per ACC 18.23.030(C), the intent of the C-1, Light Commercial zoning district is:
“…intended for lower intensity commercial adjacent to residential neighborhoods. This zone
generally serves as a transition zone between higher and lower intensity land uses, providing
retail and professional services. This zone represents the primary commercial designation for
small- to moderate-scale commercial activities compatible by having similar performance
standards and should be developed in a manner which is consistent with and attr acts pedestrian-
oriented activities. This zone encourages leisure shopping and provides amenities conducive to
attracting shoppers and pedestrians.”
As identified in the C-1 intent statement above, this zoning district allows provisions for retail uses as
well as professional services. Nexus does not engage in any retail or commercial uses, however,
does provide professional services such as counseling for homeless youth and single mothers. Nexus
has also applied for a zoning text amendment to include their specific unique set of uses and facility
as an allowed use in the C-1 zoning district (to be reviewed by the Planning Commission and City
Council at a future date).

With the described emphasis on commercial uses, an argument could be made that the C-1 zone
may not be the most suitable location for this type of facility, However, an argument could also be
made that this is a suitable use for this location; 1) with the exception of the Bartholomew parcel, the
other 2 parcels as well as two located to the west are already owned and operated by Nexus as
similar uses (although to a much-lesser scale), 2) the campus fronts-on and has direct access to
Auburn Way S, a principal arterial, 3) there is an existing Metro transit stop in front of the campus that
can serve the population, 4) the campus has an intervening alley right-of-way to the north, providing a
delineated separation to the existing single-family homes, and 5) there are existing public services
and facilities located in close proximity to the campus, including the library, community center, and
Nexus’ other service (e.g. clinic) that the homeless occupants can utilize.
Other applicable policies from the City’s Comprehensive Plan that support the Nexus applicat ion are
as follows:
From the ‘Core Plan’:
Policy 11. Participate in and support efforts to provide solutions for persons experiencing
homelessness.
Policy LU-30. Encourage development of permanent supportive housing to address the
homeless population and those with special needs.
Policy H-10. Provide a land use plan and zoning that offers opportunities to achieve a variety
of housing styles and densities for private and non-profit housing providers.
Policy H-31. Encourage and support human and health service organizations that offer
programs and facilities for people with special needs. Support programs in
particular that help people to remain within the community, including those that
are veterans, disabled, seniors, single parent households, and the homeless.
Policy H-43. Work with other jurisdictions and health and social service organizations to
implement a coordinated, regional approach to homelessness.
Policy H-47. Support nonprofit organizations during all stages of siting and project planning
and when applying for county, state, and federal funding.
Criterion #2 – ACC 14.22.110(A)(2): Whether the capacity to provide adequate services is
diminished or increased.
Staff Analysis: The proposed application for a change in the Comprehensive Plan designation has
been reviewed by the City’s Utilities division, Traffic division, and the Valley Regional Fire Authority.
Based on these reviews, the change would not adversely affect the provision of services. As is
typical with development in the City, adequate infrastructure improvements will be required to be
provided concurrent with future development. Although the specific construction activity for the three
subject parcels is still in the master planning stages and thus not exactly known, future development
is not anticipated to be detrimental to public services. Traffic impacts will be reviewed once the
campus planning by the applicant has been finalized to ensure accurate mitigation measures are
provided (through Applicant preparation and City review of a Traffic Impact Analysis).
Criterion #3 – ACC 14.22.110(A)(3): Assumptions upon which the comprehensive plan is based are
found to be invalid.
Staff Analysis: While the policies of the Comprehensive Plan are not invalid, the Applicant’s request
to change three parcels from residential to commercial designations are consistent with the

designations and uses in the immediate vicinity. The subject parcels are bordered by other parcels
owned by Nexus that are part of the campus and campus is bordered on three sides by public rights-
of-way and to the south is a City-owned parking lot (west of the Library). The requested change is a
logical expansion of the Light Commercial land use designation for this particular use.
Criterion #4 – ACC 14.22.110(A)(4): A determination of change or lack of change in conditions or
circumstances has occurred since the adoption of the latest amendment to the specific section of
the comprehensive plan that dictates the need for a proposed amendment.
Staff Analysis: A change is proposed for three parcels to Light Commercial which is consistent with
the adjacent parcels to the south and west, all of which are also owned by Nexus. A change in
conditions or circumstances would be the increasing number of homeless persons. Nexus seeks to
assist the community and help vulnerable homeless populations of the youth/young adults and single
mothers. Also, as stated under Criterion #1, above, the Comprehensive Plan lists numerous
goals/policies to respond to homelessness.
Criterion #5 – ACC 14.22.110(A)(5): If applicable, a determination that a question of consistency
exists between the comprehensive plan and Chapter 36.70A RCW, the countywide planning
policies for either King and/or Pierce County, as appropriate, and Vision 2040: Growth and
Transportation Strategy for the Puget Sound Region.
Staff Analysis: The change, if approved, would continue to be consistent with the Growth
Management Act (Chapter 36.70A RCW), the King County Countywide Planning Policies and Puget
Sound Regional Council’s Vision 2040. The proposal is consistent because it furthers provision of
services and housing for the homeless population.
Criterion #6 – ACC 14.22.110(A)(6): If the request is to change the land use designation of a
specific property on the comprehensive plan land use map, the applicant must demonstrate one
of the following:
a. The current land use designation was clearly made in error or due to an oversight;
b. The proposed land use designation is adjacent to property having a similar or compatible
designation, or other conditions are present to ensure compatibility with surrounding
properties;
c. There has been a change in conditions since the current land use designation came into
effect.
Staff Analysis: The requested change is consistent with Item b in that the adjacent properties to the
west and south also have the comprehensive plan designation of “Light Commercial”.
REZONE (Zoning Map Amendment) RELATED – CONCLUSIONS:
Chapter 18.68 ACC ((Zoning Code) Amendments) specifies the intent and process for zoning code
amendments; in this case, a site-specific zoning map amendment has been requested. While the City
Code does not contain any rezone criteria; case law offers some criteria (“A Little Bit Pregnant: The Multi-
Personalities of Site Specific Rezones - Or - A Cheat Sheet for Everything You Need to Know about Site-
Specific Rezones”, by Phil Olbrechts on MSRC.org, April 1, 2013) as follows:
“…require that the proponents of a rezone must establish that conditions have substantially changed
since the original adoption and that the rezone must bear a substantial relationship to the public
health, safety, morals or welfare. If a rezone implements the comprehensive plan, a showing that a
change of circumstances has occurred is not required.”
With the change in City procedures by Ordinance No. 6655 to allow concurrent recommendations by the
Planning Commission on both the Comprehensive plan and zoning map changes, the recommendations

on each should be consistent and therefore the rezone will implement the comprehensive plan
designation, making it unnecessary to demonstrate that a change in circumstances has occurred.
Related to the other criteria, the requested rezone bears a substantial relationship to the public health,
safety, morals, and welfare. Adequate public facilities such as water and sewer services are capable of
being provided for the parcels at future development and would therefore not be detrimental to public
health. The rezone itself is not anticipated to allow uses that would pose any detrimental effects on the
morals or welfare of the public; the uses planned by Nexus as a redeveloped campus generally are
beneficial to the community by serving a vulnerable population. As for impacts to public safety, the
proposed Nexus facilities could be seen to have either favorable or unfavorable impacts. Providing
services for homeless youth could attract this special population to the neighborhood that may not already
be present, however, the services are also intended to assist by providing shelter and integration into
productive society.
PLANNING COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION
Planning Commission recommended approval of the Nexus Youth & Families request for a
Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map amendment for three parcels from “Single Family
Residential” with a “Residential Transition Overlay” to “Light Commercial”; and a rezone (zoning
map amendment) from “R-7, Residential” to “C-1, Light Commercial”.

FINDINGS OF FACT:
1. The Applicant, Sylvia Fuerstenberg, representing Nexus Youth & Families (“Nexus”), submitted a
Comprehensive Plan Map Amendment (City File No. CPA17-0002) and Rezone request (REZ17-
0001) applications on June 8, 2017, before the year 2017 application deadline for Comprehensive
Plan amendments (June 9, 2017).
2. The City of Auburn first adopted amendments to its Comprehensive Plan in compliance with the
Washington State Growth Management Act (GMA) requirements, as amended, in 1995. The Auburn
Comprehensive Plan has been amended annually each year since, generally for housekeeping items
and for coordination with the Capital Facilities Plan.
3. The City of Auburn adopted a substantially revised Comprehensive Plan (including map
amendments) in response to periodic updates required by the GMA under Ordinance No. 6584 on
December 15, 2015.
4. RCW 36.70A.130 (GMA) provides for annual amendments to locally adopted comprehensive plans.
Except in limited circumstances, these amendments shall be considered by the City’s Legislative
body no more frequently than once per year. The annual limitation and exceptions are also restated
under ACC 14.22.060.
Comprehensive Plan Related Findings
5. In June 2017 the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 6655 which allows the Planning Commission
and City Council to consider associated map changes (for Comp. Plan and Zoning map
amendments), concurrently. This eliminates the need for the Hearing Examiner to subsequently
consider a zoning map amendment public hearing when it is related to a Comprehensive Plan map
amendment.
6. Auburn City Code (ACC) Chapter 14.22 outlines the process for submittal of privately-initiated
comprehensive plan amendments and the general processing as follows:
“Section 14.22.100
A. The planning commission shall hold at least one public hearing on all proposed amendments
to the comprehensive plan. Notice of such public hearing shall be given pursuant to Chapter
1.27 ACC and, at a minimum, include the following:
1. For site-specific plan map amendments:
a. Notice shall be published once in the official newspaper of the city not less than
10 calendar days prior to the date of public hearing;
b. Notice shall be mailed by first class mail to all property owners of record within a
radius of 300 feet of the proposed map amendment request, not less than 10
calendar days prior to the public hearing;
2. For area-wide plan map amendments:
a. Notice shall be published once in the official newspaper of the city not less than
10 calendar days prior to the date of public hearing;
b. Notice shall be mailed by first class mail to all property owners of record within
the area subject to the proposed amendment;
c. Notice shall be posted in at least two conspicuous locations in the area subject to
the proposed amendment not less than 10 calendar days prior to the date of the
public hearing.
B. Notwithstanding the above, the director may expand the minimum noticing provisions noted
above as deemed necessary.
C. Planning Commission Recommendation. The planning commission shall conduct a public
hearing on all potential comprehensive plan amendments and shall make and forward a
Page 122 of 436
Agenda Subject: CPA17-0002 & REZ17-0001, Nexus Youth &
Families Comprehensive Plan Land Use Amendment and Rezone
Date: October 24, 2017
Page 3 of 10
recommendation on each to the city council. The planning commission shall adopt written
findings and make a recommendation consistent with those findings to the city cou ncil.
D. The city council, if it elects to amend the comprehensive plan, shall adopt written findings and
adopt said amendments by ordinance.
E. State Review. All comprehensive plan amendments considered by the planning commission
shall be forwarded for state agency review consistent with RCW 36.70A.106.
F. Any appeal of an amendment to the comprehensive plan shall be made in accordance with
Chapter 36.70A RCW. (Ord. 6172 § 1, 2008.)”
7. Per Chapter 14.22 Auburn City Code (“ACC”), privately-initiated amendments to the Comprehensive
Plan shall have at least one public hearing before the Planning Commission who then forward on a
recommendation to the City Council. City Council consideration and action on the amendments
generally occurs, but is not required, prior to the end of the year. Chapter 14.22 ACC ‘Comprehensive
Plan’ is attached as Exhibit 6 for reference.
8. Due to the nature of policy/text changes, and the minimal amount of private-initiated map
amendments, the optional process for conducting a public open house on the docket of
comprehensive plan amendments as provided for in the city code, was not conducted.
Zoning Code Related Findings
9. Chapter 18.68 ACC (Zoning) Amendments)) outlines the process for submittal of privately-initiated
zoning amendments and the general processing. Per ACC 18.68.030(B)(1)(b), when the Planning
Commission is considering a rezone (zoning map amendment) which requires a Comprehensive Plan
Land Use Map amendment, the public hearings shall be conducted concurrently and a
recommendation on both shall be forwarded to the City Council. Chapter 18.68 ACC ‘Amendments’ is
attached as Exhibit 7 for reference
10. Pursuant to Chapter 197-11 WAC and Chapter 16.06 ACC, this project is subject to State
Environmental Policy Act (“SEPA”) environmental review. A Determination of Non-Significance
(“DNS”), for the Comprehensive Plan amendment and Rezone request was issued under City File
No. SEP17-0012 on August 24, 2017; with the comment period ending September 8, 2017 and an
appeal period ending September 22, 2017. One public comment was submitted (See Exhibit 8); no
appeal was filed.
11. Pursuant to RCW 36.70A.106, the proposed Comprehensive Plan amendment outlined in this agenda
bill were sent to the Washington State Dept. of Commerce and other State agencies as required for
the 60-day State review. See Exhibit 9. No comments have been received from the Dept. of
Commerce or other State agencies as of the date of this report.
12. The public hearing notice was published on October 17, 2017 in the Seattle Times, at least 10 days
prior to this November 1, 2017 Planning Commission public hearing. Public notice was also mailed to
property owners within 300 feet and those requesting said notice, posting on the City’s website, and
posting on the subject properties.
13. The following Staff Report and recommendation describes and addresses the Comprehensive Plan
Land Use Map amendment and Rezone request by Nexus.

Families Comprehensive Plan Land Use Amendment and Rezone

Page 4 of 10
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AMENDMENT AND REZONE REQUEST – STAFF ANALYSIS:
1. The Comprehensive Plan amendment seeks to change the designation of three parcels from “Single
Family Residential” with a “Residential Transition Overlay” to “Light Commercial”. The parcels are
King Co. Parcel Nos. 192105-9142, 192105-9145, and 192105-9077; and the addresses are 911 ‘H’
St. SE, 915 ‘H’ St. SE, and 921 ‘H’ St. SE. The three parcels total approximately 0.72 acres. See
Exhibit 10 and the following vicinity map:
2. Similarly, the Rezone request seeks to change the classification of the same three parcels from “R-7,
Residential Seven Dwelling Units per Acre” to “C-1, Light Commercial”. The parcels are King Co.
Parcel Nos. 192105-9142, 192105-9145, and 192105-9077; and the addresses are 911 ‘H’ St. SE,
915 ‘H’ St. SE, and 921 ‘H’ St. SE. See Exhibit 11.
3. As indicated by the Applicant’s narratives (See Exhibit 12 and Exhibit 13), the requested changes are
to accommodate future expansion of the Nexus Youth & Families Campus. Nexus Youth & Families
(formerly Auburn Youth Resources (AYR)) is a non-profit organization that provides mental health
counseling for youth, groups and families through chemical dependency prevention, treatment and
aftercare and homeless services of emergency shelter, intercept homeless youth through a street
outreach program and provide supportive housing across South King County. The facilities at this
location include a clinic, 2 administrative buildings, 2 youth shelters, storage buildings, and the
Arcadia House which will be under construction soon (Arcadia House is a replacement building for an
existing supportive house, which will be demolished). See Exhibit 14 for reference.

Families Comprehensive Plan Land Use Amendment and Rezone
Date: October 24, 2017
Page 5 of 10
4. At its ultimate buildout the Nexus Campus will intend to serve homeless youth and single mothers
through provision of permanent supportive housing, clinic services, and case management and
support services. Nexus has also requested in the Rezone request for a new use to be added to the
C-1, Light Commercial zoning district that fully encompasses their proposed uses; this tex t
amendment will be subsequently considered under a separate application and presented to Planning
Commission after review of the 2017 Comprehensive Plan amendments have been completed.
5. The current Comprehensive Plan Land Use designation, zoning classification, and current land uses
of the subject properties and surrounding properties are as follows:
Comp Plan Designation Zoning Classification Existing Land Use
On-Site
“Single Family Residential”
w/ “Residential Transition
Overlay”
R-7, Residential 3 single-family homes; 2
are currently used as
shelters by Nexus, the
other is used as a
residence by the
Bartholomews
North
“Single Family Residential”
w/ “Residential Transition
Overlay”
R-7, Residential Single-family homes
South “Light Commercial” C-1, Light Commercial Nexus Clinic
East “Institutional” I, Institutional Les Gove Community
Campus
West “Light Commercial” C-1, Light Commercial Nexus Admin.
6. The three parcels front onto ‘H’ St. SE, which is classified as a ‘Local Residential’ street; ‘H’ St. SE is
then connected to Auburn Way S (‘Principal Arterial’ classified street) via 9th St. SE (‘Local
Residential’) and the unnamed alley on the north side of the project site. Part of the western portion of
the alley will be widened to 20 ft. to support emergency services in conjunction with the Arcadia
House construction (the alley is currently approximately 12 ft. wide). The remainder of the alley will be
widened with subsequent / future development of the Nexus Campus. Circulation plans for eventual
buildout would be to direct a majority of the traffic either directly onto Auburn Way S or via the alley to
Auburn Way S. See the Conceptual Campus Site Plan, Exhibit 14.
7. Based on historic zoning maps, the subject properties have had similar single-family zoning
designations since at least 1964 (note these parcels were annexed into the City in 1948). The
Comprehensive Plan designation has also been single-family since at least 1960.
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN RELATED – CONCLUSIONS:
The purpose of the City’s Comprehensive Plan is to provide a policy basis for potential future zoning
changes to ensure that the Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Ordinance are consistent, as required by the
following City Code provision:
“14.22.050 Conformance and consistency.
The zoning, land division and other development codes contained or referenced within Auburn City
Code shall be consistent with and implement the intent of the comprehensive plan. Capital budget
decisions shall be made in conformity with the comprehensive plan.”
The City Code provides certain criteria for decisions on amending the Comprehensive Plan under ACC
18.14.22.110. These criteria are listed below, followed by a Staff Analysis in italics. The Applicant’s
responses to these criteria are included in Exhibit 12.

1. Criterion #1 – ACC 14.22.110(A)(1): The proposed change will further and be consistent with the
goals and objectives of the plan and the plan will remain internally consistent .
Staff Analysis: The Comprehensive Plan (Land Use Element, Page LU-9) provides the following
explanation for the “Light Commercial” Land Use Designation:
“Light Commercial
Description
This category represents the prime commercial designation for small to moderate scale
commercial activities. These commercial areas should be developed in a manner which is
consistent with and attracts pedestrian oriented activities. Such areas should encourage
walkability, leisure shopping, engaging public space, and should provide other amenities
conducive to attracting shoppers.
Designation Criteria
1. Previously developed light commercial areas buffered from more intense commercial or
industrial designations by landscaping or environmental features; or
2. Located along arterial or collector streets;
3. Properties that are buffered from the Single Family designation by landscaping, environmental
features, or the Residential Transition designation; and
4. Meets the development parameters of the Light Commercial designation.
Implementing Zoning Designations
Light Commercial
Policies
Policy LU-60. A wide range of consumer-oriented goods and services are compatible within this
designation since creating an attractive shopping environment is a primary
emphasis. Permitted uses would consist of local-serving and community-serving
retail trade, offices, personal services, eating establishments, financial
institutions, governmental offices, and similar uses.
Policy LU-61. Parking lots must be located and designed in a manner that softens their
appearance from adjacent public roads. This is accomplished through
landscaping, pedestrian spaces, and the location of buildings on the property.
Where practicable, low impact development techniques and landscaping should
be used to promote on site stormwater infiltration and shading of hard surfaces.
Minimum and maximum parking ratios must be established for each type of
permitted use.
Policy LU-62. Development incentives should be established that encourage the creation of
electric car charging stations, use of sustainable building and/or operational
practices, development of non-motorized infrastructure, and proximity and
connection to public transit.
Policy LU-63. Multiple family dwellings are only allowed as part of mixed-use developments
where they do not interfere with the shopping character of the area, such as
within the upper stories of buildings.
Policy LU-64. Drive in windows should only be allowed accessory to a permitted use, and only
when carefully sited under the administrative use process, in order to ensure that
an area's pedestrian environment is not compromised.
Policy LU-65. Large scale regional retail uses and uses which rely on direct access by veh icles
or involve heavy truck traffic (other than for merchandise delivery) are not
appropriate in this category.
Policy LU-66. Unsightly outdoor storage and similar activities should be prohibited.
Policy LU-67. Encourage adaptive reuse, particularly of historic properties.

Families Comprehensive Plan Land Use Amendment and Rezone

Page 7 of 10
Policy LU-68. Upzone requests to the next zone should be approved based on the innovations
in transportation and stormwater management and public amenities proposed for
the development associated with the request.”
Per ACC 18.23.030(C), the intent of the C-1, Light Commercial zoning district is:
“…intended for lower intensity commercial adjacent to residential neighborhoods. This zone
generally serves as a transition zone between higher and lower intensity land uses, providing
retail and professional services. This zone represents the primary commercial designation for
small- to moderate-scale commercial activities compatible by having similar performance
standards and should be developed in a manner which is consistent with and attr acts pedestrian-
oriented activities. This zone encourages leisure shopping and provides amenities conducive to
attracting shoppers and pedestrians.”
As identified in the C-1 intent statement above, this zoning district allows provisions for retail uses as
well as professional services. Nexus does not engage in any retail or commercial uses, however,
does provide professional services for homeless youth and single mothers. Nexus has also applied
for a zoning text amendment to include their specific type of facility as an allowable use in the C-1
zoning district (to be reviewed by the Planning Commission at a future date).
Although an argument could be made that the C-1 zone may not be the most suitable location for this
type of facility, looking at certain facts an argument could also be made that this is a suitable use for
this location; 1) with the exception of the Bartholomew parcel, the other four parcels within the Nexus
campus are already owned and operated by Nexus as similar uses (although to a much-lesser scale),
2) the campus fronts-on and has direct access to Auburn Way S, a principal arterial , 3) there is an
existing Metro transit stop in front of the Arcadia House, 4) the campus has an intervening alley right-
of-way to the north, providing a delineated buffer to the existing single-family homes, and 5) there are
existing public services and facilities located in close proximity to the campus, including the library,
community center, and Nexus’ other service (e.g. clinic) that the homeless occupants could utilize.
Other applicable policies from the City’s Comprehensive Plan that support the Nexus application are
as follows:
From the ‘Core Plan’:
Policy 11. Participate in and support efforts to provide solutions for persons experiencing
homelessness.
Policy LU-30. Encourage development of permanent supportive housing to address the
homeless population and those with special needs.
Policy H-10. Provide a land use plan and zoning that offers opportunities to achieve a variety
of housing styles and densities for private and non-profit housing providers.
Policy H-31. Encourage and support human and health service organizations that offer
programs and facilities for people with special needs. Support programs in
particular that help people to remain within the community, including those that
are veterans, disabled, seniors, single parent households, and the homeless.
Policy H-43. Work with other jurisdictions and health and social service organizations to
implement a coordinated, regional approach to homelessness.
Policy H-47. Support nonprofit organizations during all stages of siting and project planning
and when applying for county, state, and federal funding.

2. Criterion #2 – ACC 14.22.110(A)(2): Whether the capacity to provide adequate services is diminished
or increased.
Staff Analysis: The proposed application for a change in the Comprehensive Plan designation has
been reviewed by the City’s Utilities, Traffic division, and the Valley Regional Fire Authority. Based on
these reviews, the change would not adversely affect the provision of services. As is typical with
development in the City, adequate infrastructure improvements will be required to be provided
concurrent with future development. Although no specific construction activity is proposed or
permitted with this amendment, eventual buildout of these three parcels in relation to the overall
Nexus Campus is not anticipated to be detrimental to public services. Traffic impacts will be reviewed
once the campus planning by the applicant has been finalized to ensure accurate mitigation
measures are provided (through Applicant preparation and City review of a Traffic Impact Analysis).
3. Criterion #3 – ACC 14.22.110(A)(3): Assumptions upon which the comprehensive plan is based are
found to be invalid.
Staff Analysis: While the policies of the Comprehensive Plan are not invalid, the Applicant’s request
to change three parcels from residential to commercial designations are not out of character with the
designations or uses in the immediate vicinity. The Nexus Campus is bordered on three sides by
public rights-of-way and to the south is a City-owned parking lot. The requested change is a logical
expansion of the Light Commercial land use for this particular use.
4. Criterion #4 – ACC 14.22.110(A)(4): A determination of change or lack of change in conditions or
circumstances has occurred since the adoption of the latest amendment to the specific section of the
comprehensive plan that dictates the need for a proposed amendment.
Staff Analysis: The proposed change is for three parcels to Light Commercial which is consistent with
the adjacent parcels to the south and west, all of which are also owned by Nex us. A change in
conditions or circumstances would be the ever-increasing number of homeless people. Nexus seeks
to help with the especially vulnerable homeless populations, the youth/young adults and single
mothers. Also, as stated under Criterion #1, above, the Comprehensive Plan lists numerous
goals/policies to address homelessness.
5. Criterion #5 – ACC 14.22.110(A)(5): If applicable, a determination that a question of consistency
exists between the comprehensive plan and Chapter 36.70A RCW, the countywide planning policies
for either King and/or Pierce County, as appropriate, and Vision 2040: Growth and Transportation
Strategy for the Puget Sound Region.
Staff Analysis: The change, if approved, would continue to be consistent with the Growth
Management Act (Chapter 36.70A RCW), the King County Countywide Planning Policies and Vision
2040. The proposal is consistent because it furthers provision of services and housing for the
homeless population.
6. Criterion #6 – ACC 14.22.110(A)(6): If the request is to change the land use designation of a specific
property on the comprehensive plan land use map, the applicant must demonstrate one of the
following:
a. The current land use designation was clearly made in error or due to an oversight;
b. The proposed land use designation is adjacent to property having a similar or compatible
designation, or other conditions are present to ensure compatibility with surrounding properties;
c. There has been a change in conditions since the current land use designation came into effect.
Staff Analysis: The requested change is consistent with item b in that the adjacent properties to the
west and south are designated Light Commercial.

Families Comprehensive Plan Land Use Amendment and Rezone
Date: October 24, 2017
Page 9 of 10
REZONE RELATED – CONCLUSIONS:
The Applicant has requested a rezone from “R-7, Residential” to “C-1, Light Commercial”. Per ACC
18.68.030(B)(1)(b) if the rezone request also requires changes to the Comprehensive Plan, the Planning
Commission shall hold a public hearing and make a recomm endation to the City Council. Chapter 18.68
ACC contains the intent and process for zoning code amendments, in this case a site -specific zoning map
amendment has been requested. Auburn City Code does not contain any specific rezone criteria for City
Staff to review; however, Case Law offers some rezone criteria (“A Little Bit Pregnant: The Multi-
Personalities of Site Specific Rezones - Or - A Cheat Sheet for Everything You Need to Know about Site-
Specific Rezones”, by Phil Olbrechts on mrsc.org, April 1, 2013) as follows:
“…require that the proponents of a rezone must establish that conditions have substantially changed
since the original adoption and that the rezone must bear a substantial relationship to the public
health, safety, morals or welfare. If a rezone implements the comprehensive plan, a showing that a
change of circumstances has occurred is not required.”
With the change in City procedures by ordinance No. 6655 to allow concurrent recommendations by the
Planning Commission on both the Comprehensive plan and zoning map changes, the recommendations
on each should be consistent and therefore does not need to show a change in circumstances has
occurred.
The requested rezone bears a substantial relationship to the public health, safety, morals and welfare.
Adequate public facilities such as water, sewer, and electricity, are capable of being provided for the
parcels upon future development and would therefore not be detrimental to public health. The rezone
itself is not anticipated to allow any uses or acts that would pose any detrimental effects on the morals or
welfare of the public; the uses planned by Nexus for future development of the campus would be a benefit
to the community by serving a vulnerable population. As for impacts to public safety, the proposed Nexus
facilities could be seen to have favorable or unfavorable impacts. Providing services for homeless youth
could attract users to the neighborhood that may not typically be there, however, the services are also
intended to assist homeless youth to provide shelter and integrate into productive society.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Planning Commission to recommend to City Council approval of the Nexus Youth & Families request for
a Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map amendment for three parcels from “Single Family Residential” with
a “Residential Transition Overlay” to “Light Commercial”; and a rezone from “R-7, Residential” to “C-1,
Light Commercial”.

Annual Comprehensive Plan Map (CPM) Amendments (CPA17-0001 – City Initiated)
CPM #1 - Remove the discussion of a “Mixed Use" land use designation from the text of
the Plan and remove category from the Land Use Map. "The R-10, R-16 and R-
20 residential zoning districts already allow for mixed uses residential &
commercial) as permitted uses (See Table 18.07.020, Permitted Use Table).
(See also related P/T #6)
CPM #2 - Change the mapped land use designation of a 2.23-acre city-owned park
parcel from "Multiple Family Residential" to "Institutional". Parcel No.
0921059073 is located south of SE 310th ST, 820 feet west of 124th Ave SE.
CPM #3 - Change the mapped land use designation of a group of 4 privately-owned,
previously developed parcels from "Downtown Urban Center" to "Light Industrial"
to recognize and be more compatible with developed status of the properties at
the perimeter of the land use designation. The sites contain existing uses of
warehouses, bulk propane tank distribution and outdoor storage.
CPM #4 - Change the mapped land use designation of south part of 2.15-acre, privately-
owned developed parcel from "Residential Transition" to "Heavy Commercial".
Parcel owned by Quality Fence Co. and located on south side of 21st ST SE,
390 feet east of A ST SE.
CPM #5 - Change the mapped land use designation of 3 parcels (2 privately owned and
1 city-owned) from the "Open Space" to "Downtown Urban Center" land use
designation. Parcels are located at the SW corner of Main and Division Street.
CPM #6 - Change the mapped land use designation of 46 city-owned, parks properties
from "Open Space" to "Institutional" land use designation. Also, change the
zoning designation from “OS, Open Space” to “I, Institutional” to agree, except
for Parcel Nos. 1821059327, 1821059117 & 8581400530.
CPM #7 - Change the mapped land use designation of 3 Tribal jurisdiction parcels from
the "Open Space" to the "Institutional" Land Use designation. The 3 parcels
controlled by the Muckleshoot Tribe are developed as a cemetery and thus, the
land use designation is inconsistent with the designation criteria and purpose of
the "Open Space" land designation of the Comprehensive Plan. Also, change

CPA17-0001, 2017 Annual Comprehensive Plan Amendments –
Group # 1, City Initiated Plan Policy/Text Amendments
Date:
October 3, 2017
Department: Community
Development & Public Works
Attachments: See separate text &
map amendment sections of
working binder
Budget Impact: N/A
Administrative Recommendation: Planning Commission to recommend to City Council approval
of Group #1 of the 2017 City-Initiated Comprehensive Plan Amendments.
Background Summary:
The City of Auburn adopted amendments to its Comprehensive Plan in 1995 in response to the
Washington State Growth Management Act (GMA) requirements, as amended. Since then the Auburn
Comprehensive Plan has been amended annually. At the end of 2015 the City adopted a substantially
updated Comprehensive Plan in compliance with state-required periodic updates.
Annual Comprehensive plan amendments can be initiated by the City of Auburn (city-initiated) and by
private citizens (private-initiated). This year the city is initiating:
Nine policy/text amendments
Seventeen map amendments
Also, the city received one private-initiated plan map amendment by the submittal deadline which will be
presented in a separate staff report in advance of a subsequent hearing.
Due to the number of amendments and Planning Commission’s request to phase consideration, this staff
report and recommendation addresses a portion of the amendments (Group #1) and specifically:
Policy/Text (P/T) Amendments P/T # 1 through # 9 and
Map Amendments # 1 through # 3.
The remaining amendments will be addressed in subsequently provided staff reports and scheduled for a
subsequent hearing(s) before the Planning Commission.
In terms of process, the Comprehensive plan amendments are initially reviewed during a public hearing
process before the City of Auburn Planning Commission, who then provides a recommendation to the City
Council for final action. City Council consideration and action on the amendments generally occurs but is
not required prior to the end of the year.

A. Findings
1. RCW 36.70A.130 (Washington State Growth Management Act (GMA)) provides for
amendments to locally adopted GMA comprehensive plans. Except in limited circumstances
provided for in State law and City Code, comprehensive plan amendments shall be
considered by the city legislative body no more frequently than once per year.
2. The City of Auburn established a June 9, 2017 deadline for the submittal of private-initiated
comprehensive plan applications (map or policy/text). Notice to the public of the application
filing deadline was provided on the City’s website, the Seattle Times Newspaper, and sent
to a compiled notification list in April 2017. The City received one private-initiated map
amendment by the submittal deadline.
3. The City of Auburn received annual updates to the four school district Capital Facilities
Plans whose districts occur within the City of Auburn. These Capital Facilities Plans, as well
as the City’s Capital Facilities Plan are proposed to be incorporated by reference in the
current Capital Facilities Element (Volume 3), of the 2015 Auburn Comprehensive Plan and
are processed as Policy/Text (P/T) amendments.
4. The environmental review decision under the State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA) for the
school district capital facilities plans were prepared separately by each school district acting
as their own lead agency, as allowed by state law.
5. The environmental review under the State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA) for the
remaining amendments, the City Capital Facilities Plan, and the remaining policy/text and
map amendments resulted in a Determination of Non-Significance (DNS) issued for the City-
initiated Comprehensive Plan Amendments on September 19, 2017 (City File # SEP17-
0014). The comment period ended October 3, 2017 and the appeal period ended October
17, 2017. The City did not receive any comments in response to the issuance of the
Determination of Non-Significance (DNS). A copy of the DNS and environmental checklist
application is provided in the working binder.
6. Auburn City Code (ACC) Chapter 14.22 outlines the process for submittal of privately-
initiated amendments and the general processing of comprehensive plan amendments as
follows:
“Section 14.22.100
A. The planning commission shall hold at least one public hearing on all proposed
amendments to the comprehensive plan. Notice of such public hearing shall be given
pursuant to Chapter 1.27 ACC and, at a minimum, include the following:
1. For site-specific plan map amendments:
a. Notice shall be published once in the official newspaper of the city not
less than 10 calendar days prior to the date of public hearing;
b. Notice shall be mailed by first class mail to all property owners of record
within a radius of 300 feet of the proposed map amendment request, not
less than 10 calendar days prior to the public hearing;
2. For area-wide plan map amendments:
a. Notice shall be published once in the official newspaper of the city not
less than 10 calendar days prior to the date of public hearing;

b. Notice shall be mailed by first class mail to all property owners of record
within the area subject to the proposed amendment;
c. Notice shall be posted in at least two conspicuous locations in the area
subject to the proposed amendment not less than 10 calendar days prior
to the date of the public hearing.
B. Notwithstanding the above, the director may expand the minimum noticing provisions
noted above as deemed necessary.
C. Planning Commission Recommendation. The planning commission shall conduct a
public hearing on all potential comprehensive plan amendments and shall make and
forward a recommendation on each to the city council. The planning commission
shall adopt written findings and make a recommendation consistent with those
findings to the city council.
D. The city council, if it elects to amend the comprehensive plan, shall adopt written
findings and adopt said amendments by ordinance.
E. State Review. All comprehensive plan amendments considered by the planning
commission shall be forwarded for state agency review consistent with RCW
36.70A.106.
F. Any appeal of an amendment to the comprehensive plan shall be made in
accordance with Chapter 36.70A RCW. (Ord. 6172 § 1, 2008.)”
7. As provided in the City code, the Comprehensive Plan amendments are initially reviewed
during a public hearing process before the City of Auburn Planning Commission, who then
provides a recommendation to the City Council for final action which generally occurs, but is
not required to, prior to the end of the year.
8. Pursuant to RCW 36.70A.106, the proposed comprehensive plan amendments outlined in
this agenda bill were sent to the Washington State Department of Commerce and other
state agencies for the required state review. The Washington State Department of
Commerce acknowledged receipt on September 25, 2017 by letter and Material ID #24153.
No comments have been received from the Washington State Department of Commerce or
other state agencies as of the writing of this report. A copy of the transmittal and
acknowledgement is provided in the working binder.
9. Due to the nature of policy/text changes, and the minimal amount of private-initiated map
amendments, the optional process for conducting a public open house as provided for in
the city code, was not conducted.
10. The notice of public hearing was published on October 5, 2017 in the Seattle Times
Newspaper which is at least 10 days prior to the Planning Commission public hearing
scheduled for October 18, 2015. A copy of the request to publish is provided in the working
binder. Also, a notice was mailed by first class mail to all property owners of record within a
radius of 300 feet of the proposed map amendments.
11. The following report identifies Comprehensive Plan Policy/Text (P/T) and Map (CPM)
amendments scheduled for the Planning Commission’s October 18, 2017 public hearing
with a staff recommendation.

P/T #3
Incorporate the Federal Way School District 2018 Capital Facilities Plan into the City of Auburn
Comprehensive Plan.
Discussion
The Federal Way School District has provided the City with its annually updated Capital
Facilities Plan 2018. The CFP was adopted by the Federal Way School District School
Board July 25, 2017 by Resolution No. 2017-12. The CFP has been subject to separate
SEPA review and a DNS. Information contained in the School District CFP serves as
the basis for the City’s collection of school impact fees on behalf of the school district.
The Planning Commission action is to incorporate the School District Capital Facilities
Plan into the City’s Comprehensive Plan.
The CFP includes the following:
Introduction
Inventory of educational facilities & non-instructional facilities

an increase of $11,700.00. The actual impact fees are established by ordinance
through subsequent City Council action.
According to communication from Tanya Nascimento, Student & Demographic
Forecaster of the Federal Way Public Schools, there are several factors which have
driven the impact fees to increase quite significantly in this plan. One factor is the
steady increase in observed multiple-family student generation rates. In 2015, the
first of three multi-family developments was opened and fully occupied in the City of
Federal Way. The second was opened and occupied in late 2016 and the third was
opened in fully occupied this summer. The first two developments have been
included in the generation rate calculation for this plan. The specific generation rates
can be found on Page 29. These multiple-family complexes are generating more
than one student per unit which is significantly higher than past developments within
the school district.
In addition to the high student generation rates, the district completed work with its
Facilities Planning Committee which determined a need for additional capacity at a
number of schools. As a result of this work, Phase II of the District’s plan will be
placed on the November ballot for a bond request. The facilities impacted during
Phase II can be found on Page 7 of the Capital Facilities Plan. Anticipated funding
for this project can be found on the Six-Year Finance Plan on Page 9. The Finance
Plan outlines the anticipated timeline for beginning and completion of the various
projects. It is important to note that not all projects within Phase II will create
additional capacity. Only costs associated with increasing needed capacity are used
in the formula for calculating Impact Fees. The specific cost calculations are outlined
on Page 32 of the Capital Facilities Plan.
Recommendation
Planning Commission to recommend approval of the Federal Way School District’s
2018 Capital Facilities Plan to the City Council
P/T #4

P/T #5
Incorporate the City of Auburn’s 6-year Capital Facilities Plan 2018-2023, into the City’s
Comprehensive Plan.
Discussion
A Capital Facilities Plan is one of the comprehensive plan elements required by the
Washington State Growth Management Act (GMA) (RCW 36.70A). The GMA requires that
a capital facilities plan include an inventory of existing capital facilities (showing locations
and capacities), a forecast of future needs for such capital facilities, proposed locations and
capacities of new or expanded capital facilities, and a minimum of a six-year plan to finance
capital facilities with identified sources of funding. The proposed City of Auburn 6-year
Capital Facilities Plan 2018-2023 satisfies the GMA requirements for a capital facilities
element as part of the Comprehensive Plan.
Each comprehensive plan prepared under the GMA must include a capital facilities plan
element. More specifically, RCW 36.70A.070(3) of the GMA requires the following:
“A capital facilities plan element consisting of:
(a) An inventory of existing capital facilities owned by public entities, showing
the locations and capacities of the capital facilities;
(b) a forecast of the future needs of such capital facilities;
(c) the proposed locations and capacities of expanded or new capital
facilities;
(d) at least a six-year plan that will finance such capital facilities within
projected funding capacities and clearly identifies sources of public money for
such purposes; and
(e) a requirement to reassess the land use element if probable funding falls
short of meeting existing needs and to ensure that the land use element,
capital facilities plan element, and financing plan within the capital facilities
plan element are coordinated and consistent. Park and recreation facilities
shall be included in the capital facilities plan element.”

A capital facility is defined as a structure, street or utility system improvement, or other long-
lasting major asset, including land. Capital facilities are provided for public purposes.
Capital facilities include, but are not limited to, the following: streets, roads, highways,
sidewalks, street and road lighting systems, traffic signals, domestic water systems, storm
and sanitary sewer systems, parks and recreation facilities, and police and fire protection
facilities. These capital facilities include necessary ancillary and support facilities.
The memo dated September 27, 2017 prepared by the City’s Finance Department contained
in the working binder highlights the major changes in the CFP from last year’s CFP by
projects completed (removed) and projects added. The City of Auburn 6-year Capital
Facilities Plan 2018-2023 is proposed to be incorporated by reference in the Comprehensive
Plan, Capital Facilities Element (Volume No. 3).
Recommendation
Planning Commission to recommend approval of the City of Auburn’s 6-year Capital
Facilities Plan 2018-2023 to the City Council.
P/T #6
Remove the discussion of a "Mixed Use" land use designation from the text of the Plan and
from the Land Use Map. The R-10, R-16, and R-20 Residential zoning districts already
allow for mixed uses (comprised of residential & commercial) as permitted uses (See Table
18.07.020, Permitted Use Table).
Discussion
The Land Use Element (Volume No. 1) of the Comprehensive Plan at Page LU-6
provides for a mapped land use designation of “Mixed Use”. This designation is found
under the heading of “Residential Land Use Designations” (Page LU-2), so it is
appropriately predominantly a “residential” designation. This focus is reinforced by the
stated ‘description’ and ‘designation criteria’ of the Comprehensive Plan, which say:
“Description
This category shall be applied to those areas that are either now developed or are
reserved for multiple family dwellings. Densities may range from 20 to 24 units per
acre. These communities are served by transit, have non-motorized connections to
surrounding amenities and services, or have access to on-site nonresidential
amenities and services.”
“Designation Criteria
1. Previously developed high-density residential; or
2. Properties that are connected to single-family and nonresidential designations by
the Residential Transition designation or are adjacent to the Multifamily designation,
and meet the development parameters of the mixed-use designation.”
However, the R-10, R-16, and R-20 Residential zoning districts already allow for mixed
uses (comprised of residential & other uses) as permitted uses (See Table 18.07.020,
Permitted Use Table ).

Table 18.07.020
Permitted Use Table – Residential Zoning Designations (Excerpt)
Also, at Section ACC 18.04.625, the Code provides the following definition of “mixed use
development”:
“18.04.625 Mixed-use development.
“Mixed-use development” means a single unified development that incorporates the
planned integration of two or more different land uses consisting of some
combination of office, light industrial, hotel, retail, entertainment, public uses, along
with residential uses. Mixed-use development may be vertically oriented in one or
more buildings, or horizontally distributed on a development site. When horizontally
distributed, the different uses may be constructed concurrently and in separate
phases, and should incorporate common and/or complementary features and/or
elements such as pedestrian walkways, access driveways, parking areas,
architectural themes, or other techniques that provide integration between uses on
the site.”
The Comprehensive plan language goes on to provide that this designation would be
implemented by the “Mixed Use Residential” zoning district. This zoning classification
does not currently exist and there are no properties that have this zoning classification or
a “Mixed Use” land use map designation; therefore elimination of the "Mixed Use" land
use designation from the text of the Plan and from the Land Use Map does not
negatively affect any properties. It also does not reduce development potential since
mixed use is already allowed by the zoning code. Mixed use is currently allowed in the
same areas that are described as appropriate for the designation.

Staff does not question the value of having portions of the city where mixed use
development is allowed, but does not require a unique comprehensive plan designation
to achieve. See exhibit: “Excerpt of Volume 1 – Land Use Element”, Page 4.
Recommendation
Planning Commission to recommend approval of a text amendment to remove the
discussion of a "Mixed Use" land use designation from the text of the Plan to the City
Council, as presented by staff.
P/T #7
Add text to add back the R-5, Residential zoning district back in as an implementing zone for
the "Single Family Residential" Land Use Designation. A significant portion of the city is
zoned R-5, Residential. In the 2015 Comp Plan this zone was inadvertently omitted as an
implementing zoning district of any Comprehensive Plan land use designation and must be
corrected.
Discussion
The Land Use Element (Volume No. 1) of the Comprehensive Plan at Page LU-4
provides for a mapped land use designation of “Single Family Residential”. This
designation is found under the heading of “Residential Land Use Designations” (Page
LU-2). The stated ‘description’ and ‘designation criteria’ of this land use designation
provides:
“Description
This designation is the predominant land use category in the City. Maintaining and
creating a diverse arrangement of interconnected subdivisions, neighborhoods, and
communities that have a mix of densities and housing types; linkages with other
residential areas and commercial hubs through non-motorized modes, such as
pedestrian and bicycling, and vehicular modes will be encouraged.”
“Designation Criteria
1. Previously developed single-family residential areas;
2. Undeveloped areas that do not meet the designation criteria for other Residential,
Commercial, Industrial, or Public/Quasi- Public designations; or
3. Residential Conservancy areas that contain limited critical areas, are served by
public utilities (water, sewer, storm services), and meet the development parameters
of the single-family designation.”
“Implementing Zoning Designations
Residential 1 (1 dwelling unit per acre): All properties located within the Urban
Separator Overlay is zoned R-1, as consistent with King County county-wide
planning policies.
Residential 7 (7 dwelling units per acre): All properties not located within the Urban
Separator Overlay is zoned R-7.”
The R-5 Residential (Five dwelling units per acre) zoning classification is not currently
identified as an implementing zoning district for any comprehensive plan land use
designation and needs to be. A significant portion of the city is zoned R-5, Residential.
In the 2015 Comp Plan this zone was inadvertently omitted as an implementing zoning
district of any Comprehensive Plan land use designation and must be corrected by

Change the title of the land use designation of "Residential Transition" to "Moderate Density
Residential". It is requested to revert to pre-2015 title of the category. Provide more logical
title for the category to address and reflect the range of residential densities. The
implementing zones "R-10, Residential" and "R-16, Residential" are proposed to be added.
Discussion
The Land Use Element (Volume No. 1) of the Comprehensive Plan at Page LU-5
provides for a land use designation of “Residential Transition”. This was formerly the
“Moderate Density Residential” designation prior to adoption of the updated
Comprehensive Plan in 2015. It is requested to revert to the pre-2015 title of the
category since the ‘description’ and ‘designation criteria’ remain similar. The stated
‘description’ and ‘designation criteria’ of this land use designation in the 2015 Plan
provides:
“Description
Residential transition areas are planned to accommodate moderate densities of
varying residential dwelling types. Varying intensities within a transition area may be
permitted based on adjacent density, intensity, and/or character. Appropriate
densities in these areas range from 7 to 20 dwelling units per acre. Dwelling types
generally range from single-family dwelling to multiple-family dwellings, with larger
structures allowed (within the density range) where offsetting community benefits can
be identified.”
“Designation Criteria
1. Previously developed moderate density residential areas; or
2. Areas that provide a transition between single-family and multifamily, single-family
and nonresidential, multifamily and nonresidential zones or development are
adjacent and meet the development parameters of the Residential Transition
designation.”
The reversion back to the former name provides a more logical title for the category to
address and reflect the range of residential densities. The name change also avoids
confusion that would likely occur to potential users by the similarly sounding “Residential
Transition Overlay” that was also part of the changes made in the 2015 Comprehensive
Plan. Also, the description does not provide for any different uses to serve as a
‘transition’, only intermediate residential densities.

Recommendation
Planning Commission to recommend approval of a text amendment to change the title of the
land use designation of "Residential Transition" to "Moderate Density Residential"
P/T #9
Add the "R-10, Residential" and R-16, Residential" zoning districts back as implementing
zones for the "Residential Transition" or if recommended, to the "Moderate Density
Residential" Land Use Designation. Areas of the city are zoned "R-10, Residential" but no
areas are currently zoned "R-16, Residential". However, in the 2015, Comp Plan these
zoning districts were inadvertently omitted as an implementing zoning districts of any
Comprehensive Plan land use designation. To be corrected by adding R-10 and R-16 as
implementing zones to either the "Residential Transition" or "Moderate Density" Land Use
Designation.
Discussion
The Land Use Element (Volume No. 1) of the Comprehensive Plan at Page LU-5
provides for a land use designation of “Residential Transition”. This was formerly the
“Moderate Density Residential” designation prior to adoption of the updated
Comprehensive Plan in 2015. The title of the category is proposed to change as
requested in the preceding text amendment, P/T #8.
The implementing zones "R-10, Residential" and "R-16, Residential" are proposed to be
added as implementing zoning districts. The City currently contains properties zoned R-
10 Residential; however, there are no properties currently zoned R-16, Residential. The
R-10 Residential and R-16 Residential are not currently identified as implementing
zoning districts for any comprehensive plan land use designation and needs to be. The
"R-10, Residential" and "R-16, Residential" are proposed as implementing zoning
districts for the “Moderate Density Residential” land use designation. Some other minor
corrections to the wording of this section as proposed by staff are shown. See exhibit
“Excerpt of Volume 1 – Land Use Element”, Page 2.
Recommendation
Planning Commission to recommend approval of a text amendment to add a listing of R-10
Residential and R-16 Residential zoning districts as implementing zones of the "Residential
Transition" or if recommended, to the "Moderate Density Residential" Land Use Designation.
Comprehensive Plan Map Amendments (File No. CPA17-0001, City initiated)
CPM #1
Remove the discussion of a “Mixed Use" land use designation from the text of the Plan and
remove category from the Land Use Map (See P/T #6, above). The R-10, R-16 and R-20
residential zoning districts already allow for mixed uses residential & commercial) as
permitted uses (See Table 18.07.020, Permitted Use Table). Thus it was unnecessary to
establish a unique land use designation to achieve a zoning district to allow.

plan document. See discussion and analysis under text amendment P/T #6. Also,
note that a map is not provided as an exhibit since the “Mixed Use” is not shown on
the map except in the legend because it does not apply to any properties.)
Recommendation
Planning Commission to recommend approval of a map amendment to remove the "Mixed
Use" land use designation from the Comprehensive Plan map (Map No. 1.1).
CPM #2
Change the mapped land use designation of a 0.98-acre city-owned park parcel from
"Multiple Family Residential" to "Institutional". Parcel No. 0921059073 is located south of
SE 310th ST, 820 feet west of 124th Ave SE.
Discussion
The 0.98-acre property was part of a larger 2.23-acre property ownership by Schneider
Homes Inc. that was proposed for development as the Pasafino Apartments while in
unincorporated King County prior to annexation to the City of Auburn. In 1996 a ‘Petition
for Annexation Agreement and Declaration of Covenant’ was executed between the City
and Schneider Homes Inc. in order for the City to provide water and sewer services
outside the city limits, but within the city’s established utility service area, to the
proposed apartment development. An ‘Amended Petition for Annexation Agreement and
Declaration of Covenant’ was executed between the City and Schneider Homes Inc. on
April 21, 1997. The Agreements provided that as a condition of the City providing utility
services, Schneider Homes Inc. would develop a park to city standards and after
annexation, convey the developed park land to the City of Auburn without obligation or
cost. At the time of transfer, the city parks department would assume maintenance
responsibility. The property was annexed to the City of Auburn effective in 2008 by
Ordinance No. 6121, however, the transfer of ownership of the park land did not take
place for many more years since the park land was not a separate parcel that could be
deeded separately to the City. A Boundary Line Adjustment (BLA) application (File No.
BLA14-0005) was filed by Schneider Homes Inc. in May of 2014 to establish the park
land as a separate parcel. The processing of the BLA was delayed due to changes in
property ownership interest on the part of Schneider Homes Inc. for refinancing
purposes. The BLA was subsequently approved by the City and recorded on November
2, 2016 (Recording No. 20161102900004) and the property subsequently conveyed to
the City.
It was previously appropriate to have the Comprehensive Plan land use designation of
“Multiple “Family Residential" applicable to the site when it was privately-owned and part
of a larger property that is mainly developed with apartments. However, now that Parcel
No. 0921059073 is a separate parcel that is owned by the City and developed for park
purposes, it is appropriate for it to have an “Institutional” land use designation by the
Comprehensive Plan consistent with other park properties.
Recommendation
Planning Commission to recommend approval of a map amendment to change the mapped
land use designation of 0.98-acre city-owned park parcel (Parcel No. 0921059073) from
"Multiple Family Residential" to "Institutional" (Map No 1.1).

Change the mapped land use designation of a group of four privately-owned, previously-
developed parcels from "Downtown Urban Center" to "Light Industrial". Parcel No.
5401600200 (0.06 acres) and Parcel No. 5401600175 (0.7 acres) are owned by Ho &
Nancy Kim. Parcel No. 5401600235 (0.34 acres) is owned by CHS Inc. Parcel No.
5401600260 (0.24 acres) is owned by Gary & Karen Stamps. This proposal is to change
the Comprehensive Plan land use map designation to recognize and be more
compatible with developed status of the properties located at the perimeter of the land
use designation. The sites contain existing uses of warehouses, bulk propane tank
distribution, and outdoor storage.
Discussion
This is a city-initiated comprehensive plan map amendment to change a group of four
adjacent, privately-owned and mostly developed parcels from "Downtown Urban Center"

The sites have a “Downtown Urban Center" land use designation by the Comprehensive
Plan and are zoned DUC, Downtown Urban Center. The contiguous sites are located at
the northern edge of the “Downtown Urban Center" land use designation and bordered
to the north and the east by properties with an industrial designation. The sites align in a
row north to south and are bordered by public streets of C ST NW to the west; 3rd ST
NW to the north and by the Burlington Northern railroad to the east. The automobile
body shop of A-1 Collision borders the sites to the south.
The two largest parcels, Parcel No. 5401600175 (0.7 acres) and Parcel No. 5401600235
(0.34 acres) have been developed for more than 25 years with structures and facilities
that are more appropriate characterized as “industrial uses” than suburban downtown
development. The configuration and location of the properties sandwiched between
transportation corridors makes them less suitable for redevelopment as downtown

service or retail type uses geared to leisure shopping. Also, due to the number of zoning
inquiries, the City staff has increasing become aware of the difficulty of the property
owner in finding tenants that can occupy the former farm supply building and meet the
zoning use regulations of the DUC zoning district. Also, few uses are capable of using
the building with limited physical alterations in order to avoid triggering consistency with
Downtown Design Standards and significant upgrades.
Recommendation
Planning Commission to recommend approval of a map amendment to change a group of
four privately-owned, mostly developed parcels from "Downtown Urban Center" to "Light
Industrial" (Parcel No. 5401600175, 5401600200, 5401600235, and 5401600260)

Administrative Recommendation: Planning Commission to recommend to City Council approval
of Group #2 of the 2017 City-Initiated Comprehensive Plan Map Amendments and associated
rezones (zoning map amendments).
Background Summary:
The City of Auburn adopted amendments to its Comprehensive Plan in 1995 in response to the
Washington State Growth Management Act (GMA) requirements, as amended. Since then the Auburn
Comprehensive Plan has been amended annually. At the end of 2015 the City adopted a substantially
updated Comprehensive Plan in compliance with state-required periodic updates.
Annual Comprehensive plan amendments can be initiated by the City of Auburn (city-initiated) and by
private citizens (private-initiated). This year the city is initiating:
9 policy/text amendments
17 map amendments
Also, the city received one private-initiated plan map amendment by the submittal deadline which will be
presented in a separate staff report in advance of a subsequent hearing.
Due to the number of amendments and Planning Commission’s request to phase consideration, this staff
report and recommendation addresses a portion of the amendments (Group #2) and specifically:
Map Amendments # 4 through # 17.
These map amendments are the remaining amendments that were not part of Group #1, previously
addressed at the Planning Commission’s October 19, 2017 meeting.
In terms of process, the Comprehensive Plan amendments are initially reviewed during a public hearing
process before the City of Auburn Planning Commission, who then provides a recommendation to the City
Council for final action. City Council consideration and action on the amendments generally occurs, but is
not required, prior to the end of the year.

A. Findings
1. RCW 36.70A.130 (Washington State Growth Management Act (GMA)) provides for
amendments to locally adopted GMA comprehensive plans. Except in limited circumstances
provided for in State law and City Code, comprehensive plan amendments shall be
considered by the city legislative body no more frequently than once per year.
2. The City of Auburn established a June 9, 2017 deadline for the submittal of private-initiated
comprehensive plan applications (map or policy/text). Notice to the public of the application
filing deadline was provided on the City’s website, the Seattle Times Newspaper, and sent
to a compiled notification list in April 2017. The City received one private-initiated map
amendment by the submittal deadline. This private-initiated amendment is addressed in a
separate staff report (File No. CPA17-0002).
3. The environmental review under the State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA) for the
policy/text and map amendments resulted in a Determination of Non-Significance (DNS)
issued for the City-initiated Comprehensive Plan Amendments on September 19, 2017 (City
File # SEP17-0014). The comment period ended October 3, 2017 and the appeal period
ended October 17, 2017. The City did not receive any comments in response to the
issuance of the Determination of Non-Significance (DNS). A copy of the DNS and
environmental checklist application is provided in the working binder.
4. Auburn City Code (ACC) Chapter 14.22 outlines the process for submittal of privately-
initiated amendments and the general processing of comprehensive plan amendments as
follows:
“Section 14.22.100
A. The planning commission shall hold at least one public hearing on all proposed
amendments to the comprehensive plan. Notice of such public hearing shall be given
pursuant to Chapter 1.27 ACC and, at a minimum, include the following:
1. For site-specific plan map amendments:
a. Notice shall be published once in the official newspaper of the city not
less than 10 calendar days prior to the date of public hearing;
b. Notice shall be mailed by first class mail to all property owners of record
within a radius of 300 feet of the proposed map amendment request, not
less than 10 calendar days prior to the public hearing;
2. For area-wide plan map amendments:
a. Notice shall be published once in the official newspaper of the city not
less than 10 calendar days prior to the date of public hearing;
b. Notice shall be mailed by first class mail to all property owners of record
within the area subject to the proposed amendment;
c. Notice shall be posted in at least two conspicuous locations in the area
subject to the proposed amendment not less than 10 calendar days prior
to the date of the public hearing.
B. Notwithstanding the above, the director may expand the minimum noticing provisions
noted above as deemed necessary.
C. Planning Commission Recommendation. The planning commission shall conduct a
public hearing on all potential comprehensive plan amendments and shall make and
forward a recommendation on each to the city council. The planning commission
Page 149 of 436
CPA17-0001, 2017 Annual Comprehensive Plan Amendment,
Group #2 – City Initiated Plan Map Amendments
Date: October 19, 2017
Page 3 of 34
shall adopt written findings and make a recommendation consistent with those
findings to the city council.
D. The city council, if it elects to amend the comprehensive plan, shall adopt written
findings and adopt said amendments by ordinance.
E. State Review. All comprehensive plan amendments considered by the planning
commission shall be forwarded for state agency review consistent with RCW
36.70A.106.
F. Any appeal of an amendment to the comprehensive plan shall be made in
accordance with Chapter 36.70A RCW. (Ord. 6172 § 1, 2008.)”
5. As provided in the City code, the Comprehensive Plan amendments are initially reviewed
during a public hearing process before the City of Auburn Planning Commission, who then
provides a recommendation to the City Council for final action which generally occurs, but is
not required to, prior to the end of the year.
6. Pursuant to RCW 36.70A.106, the proposed comprehensive plan amendments outlined in
this agenda bill were sent to the Washington State Department of Commerce (Commerce)
and other state agencies for the required state review. The Washington State Department
of Commerce acknowledged receipt on September 25, 2017 by letter and Material ID
#24153. No comments have been received from the Washington State Department of
Commerce or other state agencies as of the writing of this report. A copy of the transmittal
by the City and written acknowledgement of receipt by Commerce is provided in the working
binder.
7. Due to the nature of policy/text changes, and the minimal amount of private-initiated map
amendments, the optional process for conducting a public open house as provided for in the
city code, was not conducted.
8. The notice of public hearing was published on October 21, 2017 in the Seattle Times
Newspaper which is at least 10 days prior to the Planning Commission public hearing
scheduled for November 1, 2017. A copy of the request to publish is provided in the
working binder. Also, a notice was mailed by first class mail to all property owners of record.
9. Many of these comprehensive plan changes are corrections to the mapped land use
designations made after adoption of the updated comprehensive plan in 2015. The changes
increase the consistency of the Comprehensive Plan and zoning as required by ACC
14.22.050, “Conformance and Consistency”. The maps related to these proposed
changes are also available to review in the ‘Comp. Plan Map Amendments’ tab of the
‘Working Binder’.
10. The following report identifies Comprehensive Plan Map (CPM) amendments scheduled for
the Planning Commission’s November 1, 2017 public hearing with a staff recommendation.
All of the Policy/Text (P/T) amendments were presented at the October meeting; so no
Policy/Text (P/T) amendments are described in this report.

Comprehensive Plan Map Amendments (File No. CPA17-0001, City initiated)
CPM #4
Change the mapped land use designation of south part of 2.15-acre, privately-owned,
developed parcel from "Residential Transition" to "Heavy Commercial".
Discussion
The 2.15-acre property was previously a smaller parcel and the comprehensive plan
designation boundary followed this original property boundary. In 2004, a boundary line
adjustment application was filed (File No. LLA04-0010), approved by the City, and
recorded (Recording No. 20040712003209). The boundary line adjustment expanded
the parcel boundary to include additional area to the south. The Comprehensive Plan
land use designation boundary was not simultaneously changed to correspond to the
property boundary change. In the intervening time, the fence contractor business has
using the expansion area as part of their yard. It is appropriate to make the change to
avoid split designation of a parcel where warranted by existing development pattern and
setting. The “Residential Transition” designation makes up a smaller portion of the lot,
while the balance is used by a fencing contractor. As shown on the map below, the
designation change is consistent with adjacent property located to the west.
Staff Recommendation
Planning Commission to recommend approval of a map amendment CPM #4 to change
the mapped land use designation of the southern part of a 2.15-acre, privately-owned,
parcel from "Residential Transition" to "Heavy Commercial" (Parcel No. 8695200020).

Discussion
This city-initiated request is to change the land use designation of 2 privately owned
parcels, Nos. 7815700095 (0.17 acres – vacant) and 7815700135 (0.33 acres – parking
lot) are owned by Levan Auburn Development LLC and the City-owned Parcel No.

Plan and its associated map changes, the properties were assigned an “Open Space”
land use designation. The change is requested to remedy an inadvertent change of
mapped land use designation with adoption of map as part of 2015 plan. It is requested
to revert to former designation of "Downtown Urban Center". These 3 mostly
undeveloped parcels are currently zoned “DUC, Downtown Urban Center”. Due to their
location in the heart of the city center and economic development potential, these
parcels should have the designation "Downtown Urban Center".

scattered at various sites. With adoption of the 2015 Comprehensive Plan and its
associated map changes, the properties were assigned an “Open Space” land use
designation. These properties are city–owned developed parks and contain play areas
and active recreational space. And the “Open Space” land use designation is not
appropriate to apply to these properties based on the discussion and clarification that
occurred with the Planning Commission during discussion of the “OS, Open Space
zoning district in July and August of this year. The land use designation is inconsistent
with the designation criteria and purpose of the "Open Space" land designation of the
Comprehensive Plan (e.g. cemeteries and active and mainly developed parks should not
be designated "Open Space"). Also, for most parcels the zoning map classification also
needs to change from “OS, Open Space” to “I, Institutional” to agree.
Staff Recommendation
Planning Commission to recommend approval of a map amendment CPM #6 to change
the mapped land use designation of multiple City-owned, parks properties from "Open
Space" to "Institutional" land use designation and to change the zoning designation (File
No. REZ17-0002), to correspond to the “I, Institutional” implementing zoning
classification, except for Parcel Nos. 1821059327, 1821059117, & 8581400530 which
are already zoned: “I, Institutional”.

“Open Space” land use designation. These properties are Muckleshoot Tribal owned
properties that are developed as cemeteries. And the “Open Space” land use
designation is not appropriate to apply to these properties based on the discussion and
clarification that occurred with the Planning Commission during discussion of the “OS,
Open Space zoning district in July and August of this year. The land use designation is
inconsistent with the designation criteria and purpose of the "Open Space" land
designation of the Comprehensive Plan (e.g. cemeteries and active and mainly
developed parks should not be designated "Open Space").

This city-initiated request is to change the land use designation of 2 privately-owned
parcels from "Single Family Residential" to "Light Commercial" Parcels Nos. are
3121059069, 1.79 acres owned by Alan Clayton and Parcel No. 3121059027, 3.67

change of mapped land use designation with adoption of map as part of 2015 plan
adoption. It is requested to revert to pre-2015 designation of "Light Commercial". Also,
change the zoning designation from “R5, Residential” to “C1, Light Commercial” to
agree.
Both properties were annexed to the City of Auburn from the City of Pacific in the year
2003 by City of Auburn Ordinance No. 3643. Prior to the annexation, the northern parcel
(owned by Mr. Clayton) was zoned “C, Commercial” and the southern parcel (now
owned by John Nixon) was zoned “RMH, Multiple Family Residential” in the City of
Pacific. Mr. Clayton’s zoning designation of “C, Commercial” was a result of an
application for zone change requested by Mr. Clayton and approved by the City of
Pacific in August of 1992 by Ordinance No. 1177 (The rezone was to the zoning
classification of “BC, Business Commercial” which subsequently became “C,
Commercial”.) At annexation to the City of Auburn, the property assumed an “R-5,
Residential” zoning designation by default, while the comprehensive plan designation
was made “Light Commercial”.
Of late, Mr. Clayton has been contacting the City almost annually requesting that the city
initiate a change in the zoning designation back to a commercial category. He has
always had the ability to submit a private application to initiate the zoning map change
himself, and has been advised of this, but was reluctant.
The ‘working binder’ under the ‘Map Amendments’ tab and CPM #8, contains a letter
from Mr. Clayton dated July 18, 2017 and supporting information in which he describes
the history and his request to have the zoning changed.
The southern parcel prior to 2015 had a comprehensive plan designation of “Light
Commercial” and was previously was zoned “R-5, Residential”. These 2 parcels are the
only parcels on the east side of A ST SE, in the vicinity that have a Comprehensive Plan
designation of “Single Family Residential”. The adjacent properties to the south were
changed to “light Industrial” due to private com plan application last year. The properties
to the north have a comprehensive plan designation of “Institutional”.
While the comprehensive plan designation was changed in 2015 to “Single Family
Residential”, to align with the property’s R-5 Residential zoning, it is the zoning
classification that should have been changed. The City now seeks to rectify the
circumstances by changing the both the comprehensive plan designation and zoning for
both parcels

Excerpt of “Volume 1 - Land Use Element” of the City
Comprehensive Plan (Pages LU-4 through LU-7) with strike
through and underlines to show changes (Four of the nine text
amendments are contained within this excerpt).
P/T #6 - Remove the discussion of a "Mixed Use" land use designation from the text of
the Plan and from the Land Use Map. The R10, R16, and R20 residential
zoning districts already allow for mixed uses (comprised of residential &
commercial) as permitted uses (See Table 18.07.020, Permitted Use Table ).
P/T #7 - Add text to add back the R5, Residential zoning district back in as an
implementing zone for the "Single Family" Land Use Designation. The 2015
Comp Plan this zone was inadvertently omitted as an implementing zoning
district of any Comp. Plan land use designation and must be corrected.
P/T #8 - Change the title of the land use designation of "Residential Transition" to
"Moderate Density Residential". Requested to revert to pre-2015 title of the
category. Provide a distinct and logical title for the category to address and
reflect the range of residential densities.
P/T #9 - Add the "R-10, Residential" and R-16, Residential" zoning districts back as
implementing zones for the "Residential Transition" or if recommended, to the
"Moderate Density Residential" Land Use Designation. In the 2015, Comp Plan
these zoning districts were inadvertently omitted as an implementing zoning

CAPITAL FACILITIES PLAN
2017 through 2023
I. Executive Summary
This six-year Capital Facilities Plan (the “Plan”) has been prepared by the Auburn
School District (the “District”) as the District’s principal planning document, in compliance
with the requirements of Washington’s Growth Management Act and the adopted
ordinances of the counties and cities served by the District. This Plan was prepared
using data available in the spring of 2017.
This Plan is consistent with prior long-term capital facilities plans adopted by the District.
However, this Plan is not intended to be the sole plan for all of the District’s needs. The
District may prepare interim and periodic long-range Capital Facilities Plans consistent
with Board Policies and actions, taking into account a longer or a shorter time period;
other factors and trends in the use of facilities; and other needs of the District as may be
required. However, any such plan or plans will be consistent with this six-year Capital
Facilities Plan.
To enable the collection of impact fees in the unincorporated areas of King County and
within the City of Auburn and City of Kent; the King County Council, the City of Auburn
and the City of Kent will adopt this Plan by reference as part of each jurisdiction’s
respective comprehensive plan. To enable the collection of impact fees in the Cities of
Algona, Pacific, and Black Diamond, these municipalities must also adopt this Plan and
adopt school impact fee ordinances.
Pursuant to the requirements of the Growth Management Act and the local ordinances,
this Plan will be updated on an annual basis, and any changes in the fee schedule(s)
adjusted accordingly.
The Plan establishes the District’s “standard of service” in order to ascertain the District’s
current and future capacity. While the State Superintendent of Public Instruction
establishes square footage guidelines for capacity, those guidelines do not account for
the local program needs of the District. The Growth Management Act and the school
impact fee ordinance authorize the District to define its standard of service based on the
District’s specific needs. In general, the District’s current standard provides that class
size for grades K-2 should not exceed 24 students and 17.3 students for our nine
schools designated as serving high poverty areas; class size for grades 3-4 should not
exceed 26 students; class size for grade 5 should not exceed 29 students. When
averaged over the six elementary grades, this computes to 23.35 students per
classroom. Class size for grades 6-12 should not exceed 30 students, with some
subject areas restricted to lesser numbers. Decisions by current legislative actions may
create the need for additional classrooms. (See Section III for more specific
information.)
The capacity of the schools in the District is calculated based on this standard of service
and the existing inventory of facilities including transitional classrooms. The District’s
Page 187 of 436
3
2016-17 capacity was 14,717. The actual number of individual students was 15,945 as
of October 1, 2016. (See Section V for more specific information.)
The Capital Construction Plan shown in Section VI addresses the additions and
proposed modernization to the District’s existing facilities. The plan includes the
replacement of five elementary schools and one middle school, construction of two new
elementary schools, and acquisition of future school sites to accommodate growth. The
new facilities are required to meet the projected elementary school class size reductions
mandated by the State of Washington and student population increases generated by
the large development areas within the Auburn School District. Three areas that have
significant impact on the school district are the Lakeland South, Lea Hill, and the Auburn
west hill areas of the district. There are other pockets of development that impact the
District as well.
The District completed a comprehensive review of all district facilities in October 2008.
A Steering Committee made recommendations to the Board for capital improvements to
existing facilities and replacement of seven schools over the next ten years. These
recommendations led to a capital improvements levy and a bond issue that was placed
on the ballot in March 2009. Both ballot measures were unsuccessful in March. The
Board determined to rerun only the capital improvements levy in November 2009, which
the voters approved.
In the fall of 2011, the Board determined to move forward with the Auburn High School
Modernization and Reconstruction Project and placed the project before the voters in
February of 2012. The bond issue was supported by the community at nearly 57%
approval rate, but was short of the super majority requirement of 60%. In March of
2012, the Board determined to rerun the bond in November of 2012. In November 2012,
the bond passed at 62%. The project was completed during the summer of 2016.
In the spring of 2016, the Board determined to move forward with the replacement of six
schools and the construction of two new elementary schools. The project was placed
before the voters in November 2016 and the bond passed at 62.83%. The first of the
projects, the replacement of Olympic Middle School, is scheduled to start construction in
March 2018.
The School Impact Fee Ordinances adopted by King County, the City of Auburn and the
City of Kent provide for the assessment of impact fees to assist in meeting some of the
fiscal impacts incurred by a district experiencing growth and development. Section VII
sets forth the proposed school impact fees for single family and multi-family dwelling
units. The student generation factors have been developed using the students who
actually attend school in the Auburn School District from single family and multi-family
developments constructed in the last five years. There have been dramatic changes in
the student generation factors for single and multi-family in the past five years. The
District plans to carefully monitor the numbers over the next several years to determine if
this is a trend or an anomaly. The method of collecting the data is with the use of GIS
mapping software, data from King County and Pierce County GIS, and integration of the
mapping with student data from the District’s student data system. This method gives
the District actual student generation numbers for each grade span for identified
developments. This data is contained in Appendix A.3.

STANDARD OF SERVICE
The School Impact Fee Ordinances adopted by King County, the City of Auburn and the City of Kent indicate
that each school district must establish a "Standard of Service" in order to ascertain the overall capacity to house
its projected student population. The Superintendent of Public Instruction establishes square footage
"capacity" guidelines for computing state funding support. The fundamental purpose of the SPI guidelines
is to provide a vehicle to equitably distribute state matching funds for school construction projects. By default
these guidelines have been used to benchmark the district's capacity to house its student population. The SPI
guidelines do not make adequate provision for local district program needs, facility configurations, emerging
educational reform, or the dynamics of each student's educational program. The Auburn School District Standard
of Service addresses those local considerations that require space in excess of the SPI guidelines. The effect
on the space requirements for both permanent and relocatable facilities is shown below for each grade articulation
pattern. Conditions that may result in potential space needs are provided for information purposes without
accompanying computations.
OVERVIEW
The Auburn School District operates fourteen elementary schools housing 7,500 students in grades
K through 5. The four middle schools house 3,392 students in grades 6 through 8. The District operates
three comprehensive senior high schools and one alternative high school, housing 5,053 students in
grades 9 through 12.
CLASS SIZE
The number of pupils per classroom determines the number of classrooms required to house the
student population. Specialists create additional space needs. Class sizes are subject to collective
bargaining agreements. Changes to class size agreements can have significant impact on available space.
The current pupil/teacher limit across all elementary programs is an average of 23.35 students per
teacher. Consistent with this staffing limit, room capacities are set at 23.35 students per room at grades
K - 5. At grades 6 - 12 the limit is set at 30 pupils per room. The SPI space allocation for each grade
articulation level, less the computed reduction for the Auburn School District Standard of Service,
determines the District's capacity to house projected pupil populations. These reductions are shown
below by grade articulation level.
STRUCTURED LEARNING FOR DEVELOPMENTALLY DISABLED SPECIAL EDUCATION
The Auburn School District operates a structured learning program for students with moderate to severe
disabilities at the elementary school level which currently uses eleven classrooms to provide for 107 students.
The housing requirements for this program are provided for in the SPI space guidelines. No loss of
capacity is expected unless population with disabilities grows at a disproportionate rate compared to
total elementary population.
ADAPTIVE BEHAVIOR
The Auburn School District operates an adaptive behavior program for students with behavior
disabilities at the elementary school level. The program uses one classroom to provide for seven students.
The housing requirements for this program exceed the SPI space allocations by one classroom.
Loss of Permanent Capacity 1 room @ 23.35 each = (23)
Loss of Temporary Capacity 0 rooms @ 23.35 each = 0

Table IV.1 shows the current inventory of permanent district facilities and their OSPI rated capacities.
Table IV.2 shows the number and location of each portable unit by school. The district uses relocatable
facilities to:
1. provide interim housing in school attendance areas uniquely impacted by increasing school
populations that would otherwise require continual redistricting,
2. make space available for changing program requirements and offerings determined by unique
student needs, and
3. provide housing to cover district needs until permanent facilities can be financed and constructed.
Relocatable facilities are deemed to be interim, stop gap measures that often place undesirable stress on
existing physical plants. Core facilities (i.e. gymnasiums, restrooms, kitchens, labs, lockers, libraries, etc.) are
not of sufficient size or quantity to handle the increased school population served by adding relocatable
classrooms.

PUPIL CAPACITY
While the Auburn School District uses the SPI inventory of permanent facilities as the data from
which to determine space needs, the District's educational program requires more space than that
provided for under the formula. This additional square footage is converted to numbers of pupils in
Section III, Standard of Service. The District's capacity is adjusted to reflect the need for additional
space to house its programs. Changes in the capacity of the district recognize new funded
facilities. The combined effect of these adjustments is shown on Line B in Tables V.1 and V.2 below.
Table V.1 shows the Distict's capacity with relocatable units included and Table V.2 without these units.

The formal process used by the Board to address current and future facility needs began in 1974
with the formation of a community wide citizens committee. The result of this committee's work was
published in the document titled 'Guidelines for Development.' In 1985 the Board formed a second
Ad Hoc citizens committee to further the work of the first and address the needs of the District for
subsequent years. The work of this committee was published in the document titled 'Directions for
the Nineties.' In 1995 the Board commissioned a third Ad Hoc citizens committee to make
recommendations for improvements to the District's programs and physical facilities. The committee
recommendations are published in the document titled 'Education Into The Twenty-First Century - -
A Community Involved.'
The 1995 Ad Hoc committee recommended the District develop plans for the implementation,
funding, and deployment of technology throughout the District's programs. The 1996 Bond
proposition provided funding to enhance the capacity of each facility to accommodate technological
applications. The 1998 Capital Levy provided funding to further deploy technology at a level
sufficient to support program requirements in every classroom and department. In 2005 and 2014,
replacement technology levies were approved to continue to support technology across all facets of
the District’s teaching, learning and operations.
In addition to the technology needs of the District, the Ad Hoc committee recognized the District
must prepare for continued student enrollment growth. As stated in their report, "the District must
pursue an appropriate high school site as soon as possible." The Ad Hoc recommendation included
commentary that the financing should be timed to maintain consistent rates of tax assessments.
A proposition was approved by the voters on April 28, 1998 that provided $8,000,000 over six years
to address some of the technology needs of the District; and $5,000,000 to provide funds to acquire
school sites.
During the 1997-98 school year, a Joint District Citizen's Ad Hoc Committee was appointed by the
Auburn and Dieringer School Boards to make recommendations on how best to serve the school
population from an area that includes a large development known as Lakeland South. Lakeland
South at that time was immediately adjacent to the southern boundary of the Auburn School District.
On June 16, 1998, the Ad Hoc Committee presented its recommendation at a joint meeting of the
Auburn and Dieringer Boards of Directors. On June 22, 1998, the Auburn School Board adopted
Resolution No. 933 authorizing the process to initiate the adjustment of the boundaries of the District
in accordance with the Ad Hoc Committee's recommendation. On June 23, 1998, the Dieringer
School Board adopted a companion Resolution No. 24-97-98 authorizing the process to initiate the
adjustment of the boundaries in accordance with the Ad Hoc Committee's recommendation. These
actions resulted in the transfer of an area from Dieringer to Auburn containing most of the Lakeland
South development and certain other undeveloped properties.
Property for the third comprehensive high school was acquired in 1999. The Board placed the
proposition to construction a new high school on the ballot four times. Each election was extremely
close to passing. After the fourth failure a community meeting was held and from that meeting the
Board determined need for further community study.
In April of 2002, the Board formed a fifth citizen's Ad Hoc committee to address the following two
items and make recommendations to the Board in the Fall of 2002:
a. A review of the conclusion and recommendations of 1985 and 1995 Ad Hoc Committees
related to accommodating high school enrollment growth. This included the review of
possible financing plans for new facilities.
b. Develop recommendations for accommodating high school enrollment growth for the next 10
years if a new senior high school is not built.

This committee recommended the Board place the high school on the ballot for the fifth time in
February 2003. The February election approved the new high school at 68.71% yes votes. The
school opened in the fall of 2005.
In the fall of 2003, the Board directed the administration to begin the planning and design for
Elementary #13 and Elementary #14. In the fall of 2004, the Board passed Resolution No. 1054 to
place two elementary schools on the ballot in February 2005. The voters approved the ballot
measure in February of 2005 at 64.72%. Lakeland Hills Elementary (Elementary #13) opened in the
fall of 2006. Arthur Jacobsen Elementary (Elementary #14) is located in the Lea Hill area and
opened in the fall of 2007. These two elementary schools were built to accommodate the housing
growth in Lakeland Hills and Lea Hill areas of the school district.
In the 2004-05 school year, the Board convened a sixth Citizen’s Ad Hoc committee to again study
and make recommendations about the future impacts in the District. One of the areas of study was
the need for New Facilities and Modernization. The committee made a number of recommendations
including school size, the need for a new middle school, and to begin a capital improvements
program to modernize or replace facilities based upon criterion.
During the 2005-06 school year, a Joint District Citizen's Ad Hoc Committee was appointed by the
Auburn and Kent School Boards to make recommendations on how best to serve the school
population that will come from an area that includes a number of projected developments in the
north Auburn valley. On May 17, 2006, the Ad Hoc Committee presented its recommendation at a
joint meeting of the Auburn and Kent Boards of Directors. On June 14, 2006, the Kent School Board
adopted Resolution No. 1225 authorizing the process to initiate the adjustment of the boundaries of
the District in accordance with the Ad Hoc Committee's recommendation. On June 26, 2006, the
Auburn School Board adopted a companion Resolution No. 1073 authorizing the process to initiate
the adjustment of the boundaries in accordance with the Ad Hoc Committee's recommendation.
These actions resulted in the transfer of an area from the Kent School District to the Auburn School
District effective September 29, 2006.
In October of 2008, after two years of review and study, a Steering Committee made
recommendations to the Board regarding the capital improvements program to modernize or replace
facilities as recommended by the 2004-05 Citizen’s Ad Hoc Committee. These recommendations,
based on specific criteria, led to the Board placing a school improvement bond and capital
improvements levy on the ballot in March 2009. Voters did not approve either measure that would
have updated 24 facilities and replaced three aging schools. The Board decided to place only a six-
year Capital Levy on the ballot in November of 2009, which passed at 55.17%. The levy funded
$46.4 million of needed improvement projects at 24 sites over the following seven school years.
Planning for the replacement of aging schools was started with educational specifications and
schematic design process for the replacement of Auburn High School.
The District acquired a site for a future high school in 2008 and a second site for a future middle
school in 2009. The District also continued efforts to acquire property around Auburn High School.
The Special Education Transition Facility opened in February of 2010. This facility is designed for
students with disabilities that are 18 to 21 years old.
In the November 2012 election, the community supported the $110 million bond issue for the Auburn
High School Modernization and Reconstruction Project at 62%. Construction began in February
2013. The entire new building was occupied by Auburn High School students and staff in the fall of
2015, with site improvements being completed during the 2015/16 school year.

In January 2015, a citizen’s ad hoc committee was convened by direction of the Board to address
growth and facilities. The major recommendations were to construct two new elementary schools in
the next four years and to acquire 3 new elementary school sites as soon as possible.
In the November 2016 election, the community supported the $456 million bond issue for the
replacement of six schools and the construction of two new elementary schools at 62.83%.
Construction for the replacement of Olympic Middle School is scheduled to begin in March 2018.
Within the six-year period, the District is projecting 3,062 additional students. This increase in
student population along with anticipated class-size reductions, will require the construction of two
new elementary schools and acquiring three new elementary school sites during the six-year
window.
In addition to new and replacement school construction, this District needs to address several major
construction projects to accommodate enrollment growth and continued District use. These projects
include improvements at the Support Services Center, Transportation Center, replacement of or
improvements to the roof at Auburn Memorial Stadium, boiler replacement at Auburn Mountainview
High School, and energy management system replacement at Auburn Riverside High School.
The table below illustrates the current capital construction plan for the next six years. The exact
timelines are wholly dependent on the rate of growth in the school age population.

Student Enrollment Projections
October 2016
Introduction
The projective techniques give some consideration to historical and current data as a basis for
forecasting the future. In addition, the ‘projector’ must make certain assumptions about the operant
variables within the data being used. These assumptions are “judgmental” by definition. Forecasting
can be defined as the extrapolation or logical extension from history to the future, or from the known
to the unknown. The attached tabular data reviews the history of student enrollment, sets out some
quantitative assumptions, and provides projections based on these numerical factors.
The projection logic does not attempt to weigh the individual sociological, psychological, economic,
and political factors that are present in any demographic analysis and projection. The logic embraces
the assumptions that whatever these individual factors have been in the past are present today, and will
be in the future. It further moderates the impact of singular factors by averaging data over thirteen
years and six years respectively. The results provide a trend, which reflects a long (13-year) and a short
(6-year) base from which to extrapolate.
Two methods of estimating the number of kindergarten students have been used. The first uses the
average increase or decrease over the past 13 and 6-year time frame and adds it to each succeeding
year. The second derives what the average percentage Auburn kindergartners have been of live births
in King County for the past 5 years and uses this to project the subsequent four years.
The degree to which the actuals deviate from the projections can only be measured after the fact.
This deviation provides a point of departure to evaluate the effectiveness of the assumptions and logic
being used to calculate future projections. Monitoring deviation is critical to the viability and
credibility of the projections derived by these techniques.
Tables
Table 1 – Thirteen Year History of October 1 Enrollments – page 3
The data shown in this table is the baseline information used to project future enrollment. This data
shows the past record of enrollment in the district on October 1 of each year.
Table 2 – Historical Factors Used in Projections - page 4
This table shows the three basic factors derived from the data in Table 1. These factors have been
used in the subsequent projections. The three factors are:
Factor 1 – Average Pupil Change Between Grade Levels
This factor is sometimes referred to as the “holding power” or “cohort survival.” It is a
measure of the number of pupils gained or lost as they move from one grade level to the
next.
Factor 2 – Average Pupil Change by Grade Level
This factor is the average change at each grade level over the 13 or 6-year period.
Factor 3 – Auburn School District Kindergarten Enrollment as a Function of King
County Live Births.
This factor calculates what percent each kindergarten class was of the King County live
births in the five previous years. From this information has been extrapolated the
kindergarten pupils expected for the next four years.

Table 3 – Projection Models – pages 5-13
This set of tables utilizes the above mentioned variables and generates several projections. The
models are explained briefly below.
Table 3.13 (pg 5) – shows a projection based on the 13-year average gain in kindergarten
(Factor 2) and the 13-year average change between grade levels (Factor 1). The data is
shown for the district as a whole.
Table 3.6 (pg 5) – shows a projection using the same scheme as Table 3.13 except it
shortens the historical data to only the most recent 6 years.
Table 3.13A and 3.6A (pg 6) – uses the same factors above except Factor 3 is substituted
for Factor 2. The kindergarten rates are derived from the King County live births instead
of the average gain.
Tables 3E.13, 3E.6, 3E.13A, 3E.6A (pg 7) – breaks out the K-5 grades from the district
projection. Summary level data is provided for percentage gain and pupil gain by grade
articulation.
Tables 3MS.13, 3MS.6, 3MS.13A, 3MS.6A (pg 8) – breaks out the 6-8 grades from the
district projection. Summary level data is provided for percentage gain and pupil gain by
grade articulation.
Tables 3SH.13, 3SH.6, 3SH.13A, 3SH.6A (pg 9) – breaks out the 9-12 grades from the
district projection. Summary level data is provided for percentage gain and pupil gain by
grade articulation.
Table 4 (pg 10) – Collects the four projection models by grade group for ease of
comparison.
Table 5 (pgs 11-13) – shows how well each projection model performed when compared
with actual enrollments. Data is provided in both number and percent formats for the
past 13 years.
Summary
This year is the fifth consecutive year of an increase in enrollment after three consecutive years of
declining enrollment. The increase of 282 students changes our historical average gain/loss in
students. Over the past 6 years the average gain is now 1.62% annually, which equates to an average
annual gain of 244 students.
Using the cohort survival models, the data below is a summary of the range of variation between the
four models. This data can be used for planning for future needs of the district.
The models show changes in the next six years:
Elementary level show increases ranging from 971 to 1,300. (page 7)
Middle School level show increases ranging from 688 to 692. (page 8)
High School level show increases ranging from 692 to 774. (page 9)
The models show these changes looking forward thirteen years:
Elementary level show increases ranging from 2,179 to 3,047. (page 7)
Middle School level show increases ranging from 1,289 to 1,536. (page 8)
High School level show increases ranging from 1,569 to 1,659. (page 9)
This data does not factor new developments that are currently under construction or in the planning
stages.

Dieringer School District No. 343 Dieringer School District
An Overview
Established in 1890, Dieringer School District consolidated with Lake Tapps School
District in 1936. The District's three schools, Lake Tapps Elementary School, Dieringer
Heights Elementary School and North Tapps Middle School, provide K through 8th
grade education, and serve as hubs for community activities as well. Dieringer School
District #343 is located in unincorporated Pierce County, bounded on the east by the
White River, on the west by the Stuck River, on the north by the city of Auburn, and on
the south by the cities of Bonney Lake and Sumner. The District surrounds the northern
two-thirds of Lake Tapps and covers approximately 5.5 square miles.
The current student enrollment is approximately 1,431 students in grades kindergarten
through eight. Students in grades first through third are housed at Lake Tapps
Elementary, constructed in 2005 as a replacement project. Construction has begun on an
addition that is expected to be completed by September 2017. Dieringer Heights
Elementary opened in the fall of 2000 and is home to students in kindergarten, fourth and
fifth grade. Originally constructed in 1992 and added on to in 1998 and 2009, North
Tapps Middle School houses students in grades sixth-eighth. The district supports an
additional 550 high school students who may select to attend any public high school. The
majority chose to attend Auburn Riverside, Sumner and Bonney Lake High Schools.
The district has a long standing history of providing high quality education for all our
students. Our goal is for our students to gain the skills that will allow them to become
successful, confident, contributing members of society. Dieringer is composed of
students who come to school well prepared and eager to learn. Parents are concerned with
student success and provide outstanding support for their children and the Dieringer
School District. The PTA and many volunteers contribute countless hours and resources
to our schools and students. The community supports the schools through the passage of
funding issues to support bus acquisition, student access to cmTent technology and the
construction of school facilities. Impact fees, including interest, are held in reserve until
used to meet District identified needs for site acquisition, additional facilities and
improvements and/or technology capital expenditures.

Enrollment Projections
The Dieringer School District is located in an area that continues to experience growth.
This growth can be noted by reviewing the following indicators: enrollment trend data,
proposed housing development, and the mitigation impact fees received for new
construction.
The District continues to experience steady growth in student enrollment. This has
slightly exceeded the Pierce County and Puget Sound Educational Service District
(PSESD) enrollment growth over the same period. A review of proposed construction
within the borders of the Dieringer School District indicates that the growth trend can be
expected to continue over the next four years and beyond. This growth trend was slowed
in recent years by economic conditions, but has picked up again. There are 211 single
family residents slated for construction within the next five years. These projects,
together with individual lots and general in-migration, are anticipated to generate an
additional 95 students in kindergarten through eighth grade.
Information from Pierce county Planning & Land Services indicates that there is space
and zoning for approximately 1,200 additional housing lots in the western portion of the
district. This creates a potential for 542 additional students, kindergarten through eighth
grade that are not included in the above numbers.
To partially address this growth, the District passed a 2006 bond issue to construct an
additional five classrooms at Dieringer Heights Elementary. Those classrooms were
completed and occupied in 2009. The bond issue also provided for the addition of an
auxiliary gym, health and fitness classroom, and four science rooms at North Tapps
Middle School. Those projects were completed in 2009 and the new instructional spaces
are in use. This year a Growth and Facilities Task Force meet and identified the need to
expand the Lake Tapps Elementary School. Construction of 3 classrooms began in the
winter of2017 and will be completed by September, 2017.

Standard of Service
The Dieringer School District houses children in elementary schools serving students
kindergarten through fifth grade and a middle school that houses grades six through
eighth. High school students, grades nine through twelve, attend adjacent high schools,
primarily in the Auburn and Sumner School Districts.
Dieringer School District follows a traditional school calendar beginning in early
September and completing in mid June. The daily school schedules begin between 7:49
and 8:45 a.m. and end between 2:17 and 3:15 p.m.
The Dieringer School District standard of service is based on class size and program
decisions adopted by the Dieringer School District Board of Directors. Based on the
district philosophy regarding class size, the targeted number of students per classroom
kindergarten through third grade 17, fourth through fifth and sixth grade 27 and seven
through eighth grade 28. These class sizes have an impact on facilities and the permanent
capacity of each school reflects these class sizes.
In the District, rooms designated and assigned for special use are not counted as capacity
classrooms. At the elementary level students are provided music instruction, physical
education and art instruction in separate, non-capacity classrooms. Computer labs are
provided at each school as non-capacity spaces. Special education and remedial
programs are provided as pullout programs and do not provide capacity. At the middle
school level, instruction is organized around a six period day; classrooms are calculated
as providing 5/6 capacity to accommodate teacher planning time in the instructional
space.

INTRODUCTION
In response to the requirements of the State of Washington Growth Management Act
(SHB) 2929 (1990) and ESHB 1025 (1991)), and under the School Impact Fee
Ordinances of King County Code 21A, City of Federal Way Ordinance No. 95-249
effective December 21, 1995 as amended, City of Kent Ordinance No.3260 effective
March 1996, and the City of Auburn Ordinance No. 5078 effective 1998, Federal Way
Public Schools has updated its 2018 Capital Facilities Plan as of May 2017.
This Plan is scheduled for adoption by King County, the City of Kent, City of Federal Way
and the City of Auburn and is incorporated in the Comprehensive Plans of each jurisdiction
by reference. This plan is also included in the Facilities Plan element of the Comprehensive
Plans of each jurisdiction. To date, the City of Des Moines has not adopted a school impact
fee ordinance. The City of Des Moines collects school impact fees as part of the SEPA
process.
The Growth Management Act requires the County to designate Urban Growth areas within
which urban growth can be encouraged. The Growth Management Planning Council
adopted and recommended to the King County Council four Urban Growth Area Line
Maps with designations for urban centers. A designation was made within the Federal Way
planning area, which encompasses Federal Way Public Schools boundaries. King County
will encourage and actively support the development of Urban Centers to meet the region’s
need for housing, jobs, services, culture, and recreation. This Plan’s estimated population
growth is prepared with this underlying assumption.
This Capital Facilities Plan will be used as documentation for any jurisdiction, which
requires its use to meet the needs of the Growth Management Act. This plan is not
intended to be the sole planning tool for all of the District needs. The District may
prepare interim plans consistent with Board policies or management need.
Construction to replace Federal Way High School and to increase capacity by
approximately 200 students has been in progress since 2014. We are currently nearing
the completion of this $106 million project. The District began Phase I in Summer 2014.
The newly constructed building, including the majority of the classrooms (Phase II), was
ready for use beginning in the 2016-17 school year. The existing cafeteria, gymnasium,
and kitchen will continue to be in use during construction. Phase III, demolition of the
cafeteria, gymnasium, and kitchen, and construction of athletic fields, will begin this
summer and is expected to be completed by Winter 2018.
The District continues to monitor factors that may have an impact on enrollment and
capacity at our schools. In accordance with the McCleary decision, the State continues to
phase in funding based on a reduction of K-3 class size to 17 and 4-12 class size to 25.
Initiative Measure No. 1351 would further reduce these class sizes in schools where more
than 50% of students were eligible for free and reduced-price meals in the prior year.
Under this measure, class sizes in those schools would be reduced to 15 in grades K-3, 22
in grade 4, and 23 in grades 5-12. The additional class size reductions required by
Initiative 1351 would increase our classroom need from 60 to 120 at our Elementary &
K-8 schools and add a need for an additional 26 classrooms at our Secondary schools.

FEDERAL WAY PUBLIC SCHOOLS 2018 CAPITAL FACILITIES PLAN

During the 2016-17 school year the District formed a Facilities Planning Committee
consisting of District staff, parents, and community members. The Committee was
tasked with developing a recommendation to the Superintendent regarding Phase 2 of the
District’s plan for school construction, remodeling, and/or modernization for voter
consideration in November 2017. Through the committee’s work a determination was
made to recommend the rebuilding of Thomas Jefferson High School, Illahee Middle
School, Totem Middle School, Lake Grove Elementary, Mirror Lake Elementary,
Olympic View Elementary, Star Lake Elementary, and Wildwood Elementary. In
addition to the school projects, the committee is also recommending the modernization of
Memorial Stadium, which currently supports athletic activities for all schools. The
rebuild of the aforementioned schools will create additional capacity for 960 students at
the elementaries and 200 students at the high school. The expanded capacity supplants
the need for additional elementary schools.
We will also continue to study school boundaries as new housing and fluctuating
populations impact specific schools. Some shifts in boundaries may be required in the
coming years. At this time with more than 1,000 unhoused elementary students,
boundary adjustments cannot resolve the need for additional capacity. The maps
included in this Plan reflect the boundaries for the 2017-18 school year.

SECTION 1 - THE CAPITAL FACILITIES PLAN
The State Growth Management Act requires that several pieces of information be
gathered to determine the facilities available and needed to meet the needs of a growing
community.
This section provides information about current facilities, existing facility needs, and
expected future facility requirements for Federal Way Public Schools. A Financial Plan
that shows expected funding for any new construction, portables and modernization listed
follows this.

As part of the multi-phase plan, the District intends to increase capacity for elementary
and high school students with expansion at the Thomas Jefferson, Lake Grove, Mirror
Lake, Olympic View, Star Lake, and Wildwood sites. Increased capacity at the five
elementary schools listed and additional elementary schools in later phases, supplant the
need for construction of a twenty-fourth elementary school. Only projects in Phase II
with plans to increase capacity are included in the impact fee calculation for this plan.

SECTION 2 - MAPS OF DISTRICT BOUNDARIES
Federal Way Public Schools has twenty-one elementary schools (grades K-5), two schools
with a K-8 grade configuration, six middle school schools (grades 6-8), four high schools
(grades 9-12) and two small secondary schools. The Federal Way Public Academy serves
students in grades 6-10. The programs at Career Academy at Truman High School serves
students in grades 9-12. In addition to these programs, TAFA @ Saghalie serves students
in grades 6-12 who reside within the service area.
The following maps show the service area boundaries for each school, by school type.
(Career Academy at Truman High School and Federal Way Public Academy serve students
from throughout the District). The identified boundaries are reviewed annually. Any
change in grade configuration or adoption of programs that affect school populations may
necessitate a change in school service areas.
The Growth Management Act requires that a jurisdiction evaluate if the public facility
infrastructure is in place to handle new housing developments. In the case of most public
facilities, new development has its major impact on the facilities immediately adjacent to
that development. School Districts are different. If the District does not have permanent
facilities available, interim measures must be taken until new facilities can be built or
until boundaries can be adjusted to match the population changes to the surrounding
facilities.
Adjusting boundaries requires careful consideration by the District and is not taken lightly.
It is recognized that there is a potential impact on students who are required to change
schools. Boundary adjustments impact the whole district, not just one school.
It is important to realize that a single housing development does not require the
construction of a complete school facility. School districts are required to project growth
throughout the district and build or adjust boundaries based on growth throughout the
district, not just around a single development.

Building Capacities
This Capital Facilities Plan establishes the District’s “standard of service” in order to
ascertain the District’s current and future capacity. The Superintendent of Public
Instruction establishes square footage guidelines for capacity, but these guidelines do not
take into consideration the education program needs.
In general, the District’s current target class size provides that the average class size for a
standard classroom for grades K through 3 should be 17 students to comply with McCleary.
In grades 4-5 the target is 25 students. For grades 6 to 12 the target class size is 26 students.
Classrooms for students with Individualized Education Program (Special Education) needs
are calculated at 12 seats per classroom.
Historically, the District has used the OSPI square footage calculation as a baseline for
capacity calculation and made adjustments for specific program needs. The District will
continue to use this calculation for determining capacity at our middle and high schools.
However, with the implementation of McCleary which requires a significant reduction in
K-3 class sizes, elementary capacity, in this Plan, will be calculated based on the number
of classroom spaces, the number of students assigned to each classroom and the extent of
support facilities available for students, staff, parents, and the community.

For the purposes of determining student capacity at individual schools, the following list
clarifies adjustments to classroom spaces and the OSPI calculation.
Special Education Resource Rooms:
Each middle school requires the use of a standard classroom(s) for special education
students requiring instruction to address specific disabilities.
English as a Second Language Programs:
Each middle school and high school requires the use of a standard classroom for students
learning English as a second language.
Middle School Computer Labs:
Each middle school has computer labs, except Totem Middle School. Wireless access
has been installed at all secondary schools. If additional classroom space is needed, these
computer labs may be converted to mobile carts.

High School Career Development and Learning Center (Resource) Room:
Each high school provides special education resource room and career development
classrooms for students requiring instruction to address specific disabilities.
Preschool/ECEAP/Headstart:
Our district currently offers preschool programs for both special needs & typically
developing students at 9 elementary schools. We also have the ECEAP and Headstart
program at 6 schools (4 elementary & 3 high schools). These programs decrease capacity
at those sites. The District has recently leased space to expand or possibly relocate
existing preschool programs.
Alternative Learning Experience:
Federal Way offers students the opportunity to participate in an Alternative Learning
Experience through our Internet Academy. These students have never been included in
the capacity calculation of unhoused students.

Portable Locations
The Washington State Constitution requires the State to provide each student a basic
education. It is not an efficient use of District resources to build a school with a capacity
for 500 students due to lack of space for 25 students when enrollment fluctuates throughout
the year and from year to year.
Portables are used as interim measures to house students when increasing population
impacts a school attendance area. Portables may also be required to house students when
new or changing programs require additional capacity. They also provide housing for
students until permanent facilities can be financed and constructed. When permanent
facilities become available, the portable(s) is either used for other purposes such as storage
or child care programs, or moved to another school for an interim classroom. Some
portables may not be fit to move due to age or physical condition. In these cases, the
District may choose to buy new portables and surplus these unfit portables.
The following page provides a list of the location of the portable facilities, used for
educational facilities by Federal Way Public Schools.

Student Forecast
Student enrollment projections are a basic component of budget development.
Enrollment projections influence many of the financial estimates that go into budget
preparation. The majority of staffing requirements are derived directly from the
forecasted number of students. Allocations for instructional supplies and materials are
also made on the basis of projected enrollment. Other expenditures and certain revenue
projections are directly related to enrollment projections.
Enrollment projections are completed annually in the Business Services Department.
Projections must be detailed at various levels, district total, school-building totals, grade
level and program level to include vocational and special education students.
The basis of projections has been cohort survival analysis. Cohort survival is the analysis
of a group that has a common statistical value (grade level) as it progresses through time.
In a stable population the cohort would be 1.00 for all grades. This analysis uses
historical information to develop averages and project the averages forward. This
method does not trace individual students; it is concerned with aggregate numbers in each
grade level. The district has used this method with varying years of history and weighted
factors to study several projections. Because transfers in and out of the school system are
common, student migration is factored into the analysis as it increases or decreases
survival rates. Entry grades (kindergarten) are a unique problem in cohort analysis. The
district collects information on birth rates within the district’s census tracts, and treats
these statistics as a cohort for kindergarten enrollment in the appropriate years.
The Federal Way School District is using various statistical methods for projecting
student enrollments. The resultant forecasted enrollments are evaluated below.
The first method is a statistical cohort analysis that produces ten distinct forecasts. These
are forecast of enrollment for one year. The projections vary depending on the number of
years of historical information and how they are weighted.
A second method is a projection using an enrollment projection software package that
allows the user to project independently at school or grade level and to aggregate these
projections for the district level. The Enrollment MasterTM software provides statistical
methods including trend line, standard grade progression (cohort) and combinations of
these methods. This software produces a five-year projection of school enrollment.
In December 2012, the District contracted a demographer to develop projections for the
Federal Way School District. The report was complete in March 2013. The model used
to forecast next year’s enrollment uses cohort survival rates to measure grade to grade
growth, assumes market share losses to private schools (consistent with county-wide
average), assumes growth from new housing or losses due to net losses from migration.
This forecast was provided as a range of three projections. The long-range forecast
provided with this report used a model with cohort survival rates and growth rates based
on projected changes in the 5-19 age group for King County. Most of the methods used
for long range enrollment reporting assume that enrollment is a constant percent of
Page 277 of 436
FEDERAL WAY PUBLIC SCHOOLS 2018 CAPITAL FACILITIES PLAN
21
something else (e.g. population) or that enrollment will mirror some projected trend for
the school-age population over time. The report included 5 different calculations to
provide a range of possible projections for the District to the year 2023. This model
produces a projection that is between 23,000 and 24,000 when applied to the low,
medium and high range modes. This provides a reasonable range for long-range planning
and is consistent with estimates from various models. An update to the District
projections was provided in December 2016.
Long-range projections that establish the need for facilities are a modification of the
cohort survival method. The cohort method of analysis becomes less reliable the farther
out the projections are made. The Federal Way School District long-range projections
are studied annually. The study includes information from the jurisdictional
demographers as they project future housing and population in the region. The long-range
projections used by Federal Way Public Schools reflect a similar age trend in student
populations as the projections published by the Office of Financial Management for the
State of Washington.
Near term projections assume some growth from new housing, which is offset by current
local economic conditions. The District tracks new development from five permitting
jurisdictions. Long range planning assumes a student yield from proposed new housing
consistent with historical growth patterns.
Growth Management requires jurisdictions to plan for a minimum of twenty years. The
Federal Way School District is a partner in this planning with the various jurisdictions
comprising the school district geography. These projections create a vision of the school
district community in the future.

Capacity Summaries
All Grades, Elementary, Middle School, and High Schools
The Capacity Summaries combine Building Capacity information, Portable Capacity
information and the Student Forecast information. The result demonstrates the
requirements for new or remodeled facilities and why there is a need for the District to use
temporary facilities or interim measures.
The District has recently adjusted its capacity calculation method for Elementary schools
to better show capacity needed to comply with the K-3 Class Size Reduction. This
adjustment is also shown in the portable capacity calculation. In order to allow for
flexibility in portable usage the District will use an average class size calculation of 21 for
each Elementary portable and an average class size of 25 for each Middle and High School
portable.
The information is organized in spreadsheet format, with a page summarizing the entire
District, and then evaluating capacity vs. number of students at elementary, middle school,
and high school levels individually.
The notes at the bottom of each spreadsheet provide information about what facilities are
in place each year.

King County, the City of Federal Way, and the City of Kent Impact Fee Calculations
Single and Multi-Family Residences
Each jurisdiction that imposes school impact fees requires that developers pay these fees
to help cover a share of the impact of new housing developments on school facilities.
To determine an equitable fee throughout unincorporated King County, a formula was
established. This formula can be found in King County Code 21A and was substantially
adopted by the City of Federal Way and Kent. The formula requires the District to establish
a "Student Generation Factor" which estimates how many students will be added to a
school district by each new single or multi-family unit and to gather some standard
construction costs, which are unique to that district.
- STUDENT GENERATION FACTOR ANALYSIS
Federal Way Public Schools student generation factor was determined separately for
single-family units and multi-family units. The factors used in the 2018 Capital Facilities
Plan were derived using actual generation factors from single-family units and multi-family
units that were constructed in the District in the last five (5) years
- IMPACT FEE CALCULATION
On page 30, the 2018 variables for the calculation of the Impact Fee for single family and
multi-family units based on King County Code 21A and the Growth Management Act,
generate the results below:
Plan Year 2017 Plan Year 2018
Single Family Units $3,198 $6,842
Multi-Family Units $8,386 $20,086
Mixed-Use Residential1 $4,193 $10,043
A year over year comparison of formula variables can be found on page 33.

SECTION 4
SUMMARY OF CHANGES FROM THE 2017 CAPITAL FACILITIES PLAN
The 2018 Capital Facilities Plan is an updated document, based on the 2017 Capital
Facilities Plan. The changes between the 2017 Plan and the 2018 Plan are listed below.
SECTION I - THE CAPITAL FACILITIES PLAN
SIX-YEAR FINANCE PLAN
The Six Year Finance Plan has been rolled forward to reflect 2018-2024 and adjusted for
anticipated Federal Way High School construction schedule and anticipated new
construction based on a November 2017 bond vote. The plan is found on page 9.
SECTION III - SUPPORT DOCUMENTATION
CAPACITY
Changes to the Building Program Capacities calculation are found on page 17.
PORTABLES
The list of portables reflects the movement of portables between facilities or new portables
purchased. Portable Locations can be found on page 19.
STUDENT FORECAST
The Student Forecast now covers 2018 through 2024 Enrollment history and projections
are found on page 22.
CAPACITY SUMMARY
The changes in the Capacity Summary are a reflection of the changes in the capacities and
student forecast. New schools and increased capacity at current buildings are shown as
increases to capacity. Capacity Summaries are found on pages 24-27.
IMPACT FEE CALCULATION - KING COUNTY CODE 21A
The Impact Fees have changed as a result of changes in several factors. The updates made
to the variables in the Impact Fee calculation, generate a change in the Impact Fee between
the 2017 Capital Facilities Plan and the 2018 Capital Facilities Plan. A summary of these
changes can be found on page 32 and 33.
Page 288 of 436
FEDERAL WAY PUBLIC SCHOOLS 2018 CAPITAL FACILITIES PLAN
32
IMPACT FEE CALCULATION CHANGES FROM 2017 TO 2018
STUDENT GENERATION FACTORS
Student Generation factors are based on rates for new developments constructed over a
period of not more than five years prior to the date of the fee calculation. The changes in
student Generation factors between the 2017 Capital Facilities Plan and the 2018 Capital
Facilities Plan are due to developments that were deleted or added based upon the age of
the developments and the year placed in the survey. The Student Generation worksheet
is found on page 29.
SCHOOL CONSTRUCTION COSTS
The anticipated cost based on the estimate for replacing Thomas Jefferson High is
$149,500,000. For Impact Fee calculation, the District will use the estimated Maximum
Allowable Construction Cost of $89,700,000, which is 60% of the total anticipated cost.
The replacement will add a total of 200 additional seats, with 50 seats dedicated for
preschool capacity. Only additional capacity for grade 9-12 seats will be used in the
impact fee calculation. The current permanent capacity of Thomas Jefferson High is
1309. The addition of 150 grade 9-12 seats will increase permanent capacity by 11%.
Total Cost $149,500,000 x .6 x .11 = $9,867,000
The anticipated cost based on the estimate for replacing Lake Grove, Mirror Lake,
Olympic View, Star Lake, and Wildwood elementaries is $154,500,000. For Impact Fee
calculation, the District will use the estimated Maximum Allowable Construction Cost of
$92,700,000, which is 60% of the total anticipated cost. The replacement will add a
total of 960 additional seats. The additional seats will include new preschool capacity at
Lake Grove, Mirror Lake, and Star Lake and 6-8 capacity at Olympic View, as well as
adding additional K-5 capacity. Only capacity for grade K-5 seats will be used in the
impact fee calculation. The current permanent capacity of these schools is 1902. The
addition of 800 grade K-5 seats will increase permanent capacity by 42%.
Total Cost $154,500,000 x .6 x .42 = $38,934,000
SCHOOL ACQUISITION COSTS
The district purchased the Norman Center to house the Employment Transition Program
and to allow for the expansion of the ECEAP program. The purchase and use of this site
increased our high school permanent capacity by 51 students.
Total Cost $2,100,000 / 2 = $1,050,000
Cost per Acre $1,050,000 / 4.85 = $216,718
The District will use the above formulas created as a base for the 2018 Capital Facilities
Plan. The capacity of these schools may vary from year to year as programs are added or
changed and construction cost may increase over time.

Administrative Recommendation:
City Council to introduce and adopt Ordinance No. 6668 to revise school impact fees for 2018.
Background Summary:
Title 19 (Impact Fees) of the Auburn City Code contains standards and regulations pertaining to the
collection of impact fees in the City of Auburn. Specifically, Chapter 19.02 (School Impact Fees)
addresses the establishment, calculation, collection and amendment of school impact fees within the
municipal boundaries of the City of Auburn. The city originally established school impact fees in 1998 by
Ordinance No. 5078. Portions of four school districts occur within the City limits.

Definition
The city’s code section 19.02 contains the city’s regulations governing school impact fees. It provides the
following definition:
"Impact fee" means a payment of money imposed upon development as a condition of development
approval to pay for school facilities needed to serve new growth and development that is reasonably
related to the new development that creates additional demand and need for public facilities, that is a
proportionate share of the cost of the school facilities, and that is used for such facilities that
reasonably benefit the new development.
Related Authority
Other key points of the city’s regulations include:
The impact fee shall be based on a capital facilities plan adopted by the school district and
incorporated by reference by the city as part of the capital facilities element of the city's
comprehensive plan, adopted pursuant to Chapter 36.70A RCW, for the purpose of establishing
the fee program.
Separate fees shall be calculated for single-family and multifamily types of dwelling units, and
separate student generation rates must be determined by the district for each type of dwelling
unit.
The fee shall be calculated on a district-wide basis using the appropriate factors and data
supplied by the district. The fee calculations shall also be made on a district -wide basis to assure
maximum utilization of all available school facilities in the district which meet district standards.
As a condition of the city's authorization and adoption of a school impact fee ordinance, the city
and the applicable district shall enter into an interlocal agreement governing the operation of the
school impact fee program, and describing the relationship and liabilities of the parties. The
agreement must provide that the district shall hold the city harmless for all damages.
On an annual basis (by July 1st or on a date agreed to by district and the city and stipulated in
the interlocal agreement), any district for which the city is collecting impact fees shall submit the
Capital facilities plan and supporting information t o the city.
Applicants for single-family and multifamily residential building permits shall pay the total
amount of the impact fees assessed before the building permit is issued, using the impact fee
schedules in effect, unless the fee has been deferred pursuant to City Ordinance No. 6341.
The impact fee calculation shall be based upon the formula set forth in ACC 19.02.110, “Impact
fee formula”. The formula is the city's determination of the appropriate proportionate share of the
costs of public school capital facilities needed to serve new growth and development to be funded
by school impact fees based on the factors defined in ACC 19.02.020. Based on this formula, the
“Fee Obligation” is the “T otal Unfunded Need” x 50% = Fee Calculation.
The Capital Facilities Plans that were approved by each of the school boards contain proposed school
impact fees for each of the Districts. The requests for adjustment of the school impact fees are required
to be submitted concurrent with the submittal of the Capital Facilities Plans. Under City regulations a
separate letter request is only required to be submitted to the city when the fee adjustment is requested to
increase.

Council Review and Decision
The establishment of the actual fees occurs through separate Council action amending Chapter 19.02 of
the Auburn City Code. Section 19.02.060, (Annual Council Review) specifies the following:
“On at least an annual basis, the city council shall review the i nformation submitted by the district
pursuant to ACC 19.02.050. The review shall be in conjunction with any update of the capital
facilities plan element of the city's comprehensive plan. The city council may also at this time
determine if an adjustment to the amount of the impact fees is necessary; provided, that any
school impact fee adjustment that would increase the school impact fee shall require the
submittal of a written request for the adjustment by the applicable school district concurrent with
the submittal of the annual capital facilities plan pursuant to ACC 19.02.050. In making its
decision to adjust impact fees, the city council will take into consideration the quality and
completeness of the information provided in the applicable school district capital facilities plan
and may decide to enact a fee less than the amount supported by the capital facilities plan.”
Section 19.02.060 establishes that the Auburn City Council is not obligated to accept the fees proposed
by the School Districts within their submitted Capital Facilities Plans and may establish fees that the
Council determines are more appropriate and consistent with the public’s interest in reasonably mitigating
school impacts within the affected portion of the City.
Recommendation (Contained in draft Ordinance No. 6668)
Auburn School District:
The Auburn School District indicated by letter submitted with their Capital Facilities Plan, that they are
requesting an increase in school impact fees for the year 2018. The year 2018 for single-family
dwellings is proposed to be $3,321.86, a decrease of $2,147.51 and the requested fee for multiple -
family dwellings is $2,081.29, an increase of $441.59. The actual impact fees are established by
ordinance through subsequent City Council action.
Dieringer School District:
The Dieringer School District indicated by letter submitted with their Capital Facilities Plan that they are
requesting an increase in school impact fees for year 2018. The year 2018 fees for single-family
dwellings as identified in the CFP is proposed to be $3,760.00, an increase of $360.00 and the
requested fee for multiple family dwellings is $1,081.00; a decrease of $678.00. The actual impact fees
are established by ordinance through subsequent City Council action.
While, a proposed fee calculation of $3,760.00 for single family residential and $1,081.00 for multiple
family residential is identified based on their Capital Facilities Plan, related to this, the Pierce County
Council by Ordinance No. 2017-78 adopted November 7, 2017; effective January 1, 2018, establishing
a school impact fee for the Dieringer School District of $3,485.00 for single family residential and
$1,081.00 for multiple family residential (See Exhibit). Pierce County routinely establishes a uniform
rate for all districts within their jurisdiction and only makes yearly adjustments based on the Consumer
Price Index. The Dieringer School District is the only school district common to both the jurisdictions of
the City of Auburn and Pierce County.
It appears appropriate to establish a fee applicable in the City of Auburn for the Dieringer School district
that is the same as the fee implemented in Pierce County’s fee since it is more appropriate and
consistent with the public’s interest in reasonably mitigating school impacts within the affected portion of
the City. The draft Ordinance No. 6668 has been prepared to reflect school impact fees that are the
same as Pierce County’s school impact fee and differs from what the Dieringer School District has
requested, as historically has been done.

Federal Way School District:
The Federal Way School District indicated by letter submitted with their Capital Facilities Plan that they
are requesting an increase in school impact fees for year 2018. The year 2018 fees for single-family
dwellings is proposed to be $6,842.00, representing an increase of $3,644.00 and the requested fee for
multi-family dwellings is $20,086.00, an increase of $11,700.00. The actual impact fees are established
by ordinance through subsequent City Council action.
According to communication from Tanya Nascimento, Student & Demographic Forecaster of the
Federal Way Public Schools, there are several factors which have driven the multiple family impact
fees to increase quite significantly in this plan. One factor is an increase in observed multiple-family
student generation rates. When calculating the impact fees for their capital facilities plan, the
District can only use actual student generation rates, either based on district or the King County
average. Prior to 2016, there had been no multi-family developments in our District, so we were
using the King County average. In 2015, the first of three multi-family developments was opened
and fully occupied in the City of Federal Way. The second was opened and occupied in late 2016
and the third was opened in fully occupied in summer of 2017. The first two developments have
been included in the generation rate calculation for this plan. The specific generation rates can be
found on Page 29. These multiple-family complexes are generating more than one student per unit
which is significantly higher than past developments within the School District.
In addition to the high student generation rates, the District completed work with its Facilities
Planning Committee which determined a need for additional capacity at a number of schools. As a
result of this work, Phase II of the District’s plan will be placed on the November ballot for a bond
request. The facilities impacted during Phase II can be found on Page 7 of the Capital Facilities
Plan. Anticipated funding for this project can be found on the Six-Year Finance Plan on Page 9.
The Finance Plan outlines the anticipated timeline for beginning and completion of the various
projects. It is important to note that not all projects within Phase II will create additional capacity.
Only costs associated with increasing needed capacity are used in the formula for calculating
Impact Fees. The specific cost calculations are outlined on Page 32 of the Capital Facilities Plan.
Kent School District
The Kent School District indicated by letter submitted with their Capital Facilities Plan that they are
requesting an increase in school impact fees for year 2018. The year 2018 fees for single-family
dwellings is proposed to be $2,267.00, representing an increase of $57.00 and the requested fee for
multi-family dwellings is $5,235.00, an increase of $135.00. The actual impact fees are established by
ordinance through subsequent City Council action.
Scheduling of Actions
A review and discussion of the School District Capital Facilities Plans school impact fee changes and
Ordinance No. 6668 was held by City Council at the Study Session November 27, 2017. City Council
consideration is planned for December 4, 2017.

The City has entered into similar agreements with King County and King County has assisted
local employers in Auburn for more than 10 years with the creation and maintenance of CTR
programs that help them comply with the regulations. The proposed agreement is f or a two

training.
Approximately $85,000 of the CDBG funds will be allocated to program administration, which
includes planning and citizen participation. The remaining $300,000 will be allocated
to residential rehabilitation.
The City of Auburn is committed to continuing to focus on achieving solutions to recurring
social problems and achieving a greater collaboration among service providers. Overall the
implementation of the Consolidated Plan is progressing as planned and all of the activities
included are underway.

1. Introduction
The City of Auburn recognizes the importance of citizen participation in the development and
implementation of the annual Action Plan. During the process of development, city staff
consulted with multiple public and private agencies. Agencies that participated in
consultations included: the King County Department of Community and Human Services, King
County Human Services Planners, nonprofit agencies delivering services in Auburn and the sub-
region as well as City of Auburn internal partnerships.
In addition to conducting consultations during the development of the plan, the City of Auburn
collaborates and works closely with numerous coalitions, committees and government entities
on an ongoing basis in efforts to enhance strategies and systems to meet established goals and
objectives designated in the plan.
Provide a concise summary of the jurisdiction’s activities to enhance coordination between
public and assisted housing providers and private and governmental health, mental health
and service agencies (91.215(l)).
The City of Auburn works closely with partnering King County jurisdictions, public housing
authorities and health providers to develop systems in order to improve the quality of service
and access for low-income residents as well as the community as a whole within the city and
throughout the region.
Additionally, the City participates in monthly meetings with staff from King County Department
of Community and Human Services, Public Health King County, the Housing Development
Consortium, Valley Cities, the Multi-Service Center, and the King County Housing Authority to
review program progress and delivery of services funded through regional efforts. This regional
collaboration work is supported by the South King Housing and Homelessness Partnership,
which Auburn and other South King County Cities contribute to in order to fund a full time
position to address issues related to housing and homelessness in the South King County
region.
Describe coordination with the Continuum of Care and efforts to address the needs of
homeless persons (particularly chronically homeless individuals and families, families with
children, veterans, and unaccompanied youth) and persons at risk of homelessness.

OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 06/30/2018)
King County’s regional Continuum of Care (CoC) aims to make homelessness in our region rare,
brief, and one-time. In Coordination with the CoC, Auburn supported funding programs such as
the Valley Cities Landing, Nexus Youth and Families Severson House and the YWCA Auburn
Transitional Housing Program. All programs provide housing and supportive services to
homeless persons (including homeless Veterans, families, chronically homeless individuals and
unaccompanied youth).
The City also participates in the annual Point in Time count of unsheltered individuals in King
County, organized by our CoC.
Coordinating services and funding is critical to our region’s implementation of the King County
All Home strategic plan on homelessness which aims to help individuals and families
experiencing homelessness meet three goals:
• achieve residential stability
• increase their skill levels and/or incomes
• strengthen their ability to influence decisions that affect their lives
Describe consultation with the Continuum(s) of Care that serves the jurisdiction’s area in
determining how to allocate ESG funds, develop performance standards for and evaluate
outcomes of projects and activities assisted by ESG funds, and develop funding, policies and
procedures for the operation and administration of HMIS
All projects receiving CoC funding are required by HUD to apply for support through a local
Continuum of Care. For King County, the Continuum of Care encompasses programs and
activities within the borders of King County. Each continuum sets funding priorities and need
for its community. The King County CoC priorities are set by All Home King County. Auburn staff
contribute to the CoC by working collaboratively with All Home on efforts for King County to
ensure coordination efforts between the two entities.

Auburn's partnerships with organizations such as the King County Housing Authority, Master Builders Association and the Seattle King County Housing Development Consortium have allowed the City to explore new and innovative strategies to continue to offer affordable housing to its current and prospective residents. In 2017, Auburn saw the addition of over 1000 new units of multifamily housing that cater to seniors as well as low to moderate income residents. Actions it planned to remove or ameliorate the negative effects of public policies that serve as barriers to affordable housing such as land use controls, tax policies affecting land, zoning ordinances, building codes, fees and charges, growth limitations, and policies affecting the return on residential investment The City of Auburn will continue to look at policies that remove barriers to affordable housing. The City of Auburn's Comprehensive Land Use Plan includes several policies and objectives that will guide the city toward achieving its affordable and fair housing goals. These policies include maintaining flexibility in land use to achieve a balanced mix of affordable housing opportunities. The City will continue to pursue mixed use developments that are consistent with the transportation oriented developments located in Auburn's downtown. The City will look for opportunities with public and private agencies to implement policies and offer programs that help alleviate physical and economic distress, conserve energy resources, improve the quality and quantity of community services, and eliminate conditions that are detrimental to health, safety and public welfare. In 2017 the City of Auburn passed an ordinance that does not allow landlords of multifamily units to discriminate against potential renters based on their source of income. This means that those seeking housing with income sources such as: SSI/SSDI, Veterans Page 431 of 436
Annual Action Plan 2018 23 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 06/30/2018) benefits, Section 8 vouchers, other forms of income will have the same access to housing as the rest of the community. Page 432 of 436

Introduction
The City of Auburn will continue to work with service providers throughout the region in coordination to
develop systems and strategies to promote their efforts in providing optimal, easily accessible services.
The City will work to reduce the number of families in poverty, sustain relationships with employment
training agencies, and work to preserve the affordable housing stock in our community.
Actions planned to address obstacles to meeting underserved needs
By establishing a strong foundation of networks between local service providers, stakeholders and
government agencies through committees and coalitions, the City will work in partnership to address
obstacles and ameliorate barriers to meeting underserved needs. The collaborated organizations will
develop detailed strategic plans that will delegate tasks, build systems and ongoing assessment of
service delivery.
Actions planned to foster and maintain affordable housing
The City will continue to maintain the affordability of decent housing for low income Auburn residents
by allocating $300,000 of CDBG funds to the City's Housing Repair Program. The program provides
emergency repairs necessary to maintain safe housing for up to 65 Auburn homeowners, many of whom
are senior citizens and/or are experiencing barriers to safely accessing their homes due to physical
disabilities or impairment.
In addition to Auburn's Housing Repair program, the City will maintain affordable housing by continuing
to engage and partner with coalitions, committees and other government agencies to integrate and
enhance efforts on the issue.
Actions planned to reduce lead-based paint hazards
The City of Auburn will continue to implement U.S. Department of Housing Urban Development (HUD)
regulations to protect residents from lead-based paint hazards in housing that is financially assisted by
the federal government. The requirements apply only to housing built prior to 1980, the year lead-based
paint was banned nationwide for consumers.
Actions planned to reduce the number of poverty-level families
The City of Auburn's planned actions to reduce the number of poverty- level families include but are not

limited to:
• Allocating $10,000 to employment and training programs
• Allocating more than $32,000 to healthcare services targeted at families who are uninsured or
underinsured
• Participate and partner with coalitions, committees and agencies that provide antipoverty
services to develop and enhance strategies and efforts to reduce poverty level families
• Supporting the development and sustainability of affordable multi-family housing in Auburn
• Support and continue to fund programs serving families living in poverty
Actions planned to develop institutional structure
The City's planned actions to address the gaps and weaknesses identified in the strategic plan include:
• Maintaining partnerships with and participating in the South King County Housing and
Homelessness Partnership, All Home of King County and other regional human service providers,
coalitions and committees who address homeless issues. The City will also continue to work
collaboratively with partnering organizations and groups to integrate and enhance services to
provide optimal services to individuals and families currently experiencing or at risk of
homelessness. In addition the City will allocate more than $45,000 to emergency shelters and
transitional housing and more than $60,000 to emergency services such as food, financial
assistance, clothing and healthcare.
• Take a comprehensive approach to consolidated and comprehensive planning to include all
internal City departments, commissions, committees and task force.
Actions planned to enhance coordination between public and private housing and social
service agencies
The City of Auburn has heavily contributed and intends to continue cultivating relationships between
public and private housing and social service agencies. In addition the City will continue to participate in
collaborations with the South King County Forum on Homelessness, the South King County Council of
Human Services, Seattle-King County Housing Development Consortium and the King County Joint
Planners Meeting.
In 2016 the City of Auburn started participating in Affordable Housing Week through the Housing
Development Consortium along with other public and private housing agencies in King County to
continue our partnerships in providing affordable housing in the region. The City will continue
participation in this annual event and look for other similar opportunities to raise build partnerships to
