The $10,000 balance is available from DCD's Professional Services budget. DISCUSSION ONLY. B. Ordinance: Renewing Moratorium within the Tukwila International Boulevard Study Area Staff is seeking Council approval of an ordinance that would renew the moratorium on development in the Tukwila International Boulevard (TIB) Study Area, since the City is still in the process of updating the development standards in the area. The existing moratorium is set to expire on July 15, 2018. UNANIMOUS APPROVAL. FORWARD TO JUNE 25, 2018 COMMITTEE OF THE WHOLE. C. Ordinance: Residential Development Standards and Guidelines for the Tukwila South Overlay Staff is seeking Council approval of an ordinance that would adopt residential development standards and design guidelines for the Tukwila South Overlay Zone. These amendments were requested by Segale Properties LLC and would apply only to residential uses in that portion of the Tukwila South Overlay which immediately adjoins land located in the City of Seatac to the east of Interstate 5. On April 24 the Committee was briefed on the proposed multifamily development in that area that would straddle the cities of Tukwila and SeaTac, and since then the Planning Commission has made a recommendation. The proposed ordinance would adopt Tukwila's Multi -Family Design Manual and standards similar to those in the High Density Residential (HDR) zone, but with modifications to open space/recreation and parking more in alignment with Seatac considering most of the development will be in that city.
