LO1-032 ZONING CODE ADMENDMENT COMPREHENSIVE LAND USE PLAN AMENDMENT COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AMENDMENT CITY WIDE TO: Mayor Mullet Tukwila City Council / n / FROM: Steve Lancaster, DCD Director lam✓ " RE: Proposed Administrative BAR Ordinance DATE: November 25, 2002 BACKGROUND PUBLIC NOTICE PROPOSED CHANGES REQUESTED ACTION Cizy of Tukwila Steven M. Mullet, Mayor Department of Community Development Steve Lancaster, Director MEMORANDUM Under the newly adopted land use fee ordinance the City Council authorized the creation of an administrative design review process for smaller buildings, additions and remodels. What remained to be resolved was where the thresholds for administrative and public hearing design review should be placed. The Planning Commission/Board of Architectural Review held a public hearing on the topic on September 26 and made a recommendation to Council. The CAP Committee considered the recommendation at its meeting on October 15` and forwarded the issue on to COW unchanged. On October 28 the COW set a date for a public hearing on the issue. No comments have been submitted on the topic and no members of the public attended the Planning Commission hearing. At the suggestion of the Commissioners an article about the proposed design review changes has been published in the November edition of the Hazelnut. In order to implement the administrative design review process we will need to revise the thresholds for triggering design review in the various districts and add administrative design review to the list of Type 2 Decisions at TMC 18.104.010. The proposed code changes are reflected in the attached ordinance. Hold a public hearing on the proposed changes and approve the ordinance as proposed or amended by Council. 6300 Southcenter Boulevard, Suite #100 • Tukwila, Washington 98188 • Phone: 206- 431 -3670 • Fax: 206 - 431 -3665 z • ;= z ce w JU 00 0 IL = w • 0 2 = Z I- 0 zi-- w Lu 0 O ( - 2 • i w w LL z w U I O ▪ ~ z DRAFT AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF TUKWILA, WASHINGTON, AMENDING ORDINANCE NOS. 1758, 1768, 1793, 1796, 1847, 1857 AND 1865 AS CODIFIED AT CHAPTERS 18.12, 18.14, 18.16, 18.18, 18.20, 18.22, 18.24, 18.26, 18.28, 18.30, 18.32, 18.34, 18.36, 18.38, 18.40, 18.60..

Administrative Design Review/BAR The Council had recently authorized using the v o administrative design review in lieu of the more formal BAR review for some smaller projects u w and remodels of buildings. The Planning Commission did not get any input at their public L hearing on this issue. Because the change affects differently sized buildings in most zones, it was helpful when Nora demonstrated this with a small chart drawn on a blackboard. The zones and w o design review requirements were shown on a chart, and included in proposed zoning code g language. Some projects that previously did not require design review if they were smaller than 10,000 s.f. will now be required to have an administrative design review for buildings under = 10,000 s.f. . Other projects will find some relief in not having to go to the BAR, but rather will Z go through the administrative design review process. Appeals of administrative design reviews F. o will be made to the BAR. The committee asked about regulating some single - family home w 1— design in housing developments, but Steve explained that's a difficult issue which the Planning w Commission considered and then decided against. The committee was satisfied with the staff o N information, and recommended it to Council. They also recommended Nora's little drawing be in !- included. Recommend design standard reviews to COW. w 2. Fort Dent Park John and Bruce discussed the negotiations that have been going on o z between the County and City about King County's turnover of the park to Tukwila. Because the in co park carries a $400,000 per year maintenance cost, it would have been hard for the city to take 1 I T the park with our current economic status. However, a local non - profit company, Starfire Sports, z has proposed using the park to put a first class soccer complex into. The park would include five synthetic grass soccer fields, an improved stadium area, and an indoor soccer facility. The city would maintain the parking lots and the area near the small lake with play areas and picnic tables. There will be areas to play unstructured sports in. The City will get $10,000 use of softball play and $10,000 of soccer use. The City will also help with maintenance and marketing the park. This appears to be a win -win proposition for the County, City, and Starfire. Joe asked what name the park would have, and was told it would stay Fort Dent, but elements within the park will be named Starfire. The park is a Forward Thrust park.. Brief COW on Starfire proposal; return draft agreement to Committee. 3. Equity and Diversity Commission Ordinance Joan said she had been uncomfortable seeing the ordinance at a Regular Meeting without its having been to a COW. The recommended changes in membership are not a perfect solution, but after some discussion, the committee agreed to forward the ordinance back to COW for consideration. The discussed whether they should add positions for students, but decided it has been too difficult to find students who would commit to something like the Commission for any amount of time. The two members who are willing to be appointed now should be able to fill some of the vacant positions. Recommend ordinance to COW. v `" `;r k a::r?J ; -04 z ; �' • TO: Mayor Mullet Community Affairs and Parks Committee FROM: Steve Lancaster, DCD Director. v_ RE: Cargo Containers for Food Banks DATE: March 20, 2002 BACKGROUND At the March l e Council meeting Staff was asked to identify some alternatives for the use of cargo containers by regional food banks. ALTERNATIVES Following are some suggested alternatives for the Council: Should regional food banks be added to the list of institutional uses allowed to have cargo containers? No es Food bank operations should be contained ood banks have variable within buildings to lessen their impact on storage needs and cargo neighbors. containers give them flexibility. Should institutional uses be allowed more than one container? V /.o C E " The one contain mit should be enforced in all zones. Why allow two containers for institutional uses in residential zones and only one per lot in commercial zones? No Stacking increases the visibility of the container and makes screening with fences or landscaping unpractical. MEMORANDUM Yes Institutions may need to store more than one type of supplies, for instance salt/chains /shovels and medical supplies. — Should containers be allowed to be stacked? Yes Stacking is a more efficient use of the site and the containers could be screened by a building. �l ,, ( Sib � � � - +� " Page 1 Should there be a limit on institutional /commercial containers? Yes Businesses should be allowed to select the container that best meets their needs, especially if they are limited to one. REQUESTED ACTION The larger the container the harder it is to move and screen. 20' Long Max Size 30' Long 40' Long Provide Staff with policy direction about the above cargo container issues. Staff will then amend the draft ordinance and bring it back to the full Council for action.

In other parts of the country that would refer to an organization like Northwest Harvest. In Washington, however, food bank and pantry are used interchangeably. I suppose pantry connotes a somewhat smaller program, but this is not necessarily the case.

New cargo containers may be allowed in residential zones only for institutional uses with a special permission approval from the Director. 3. New cargo containers may be allowed in regional commercial zones if they receive a special permission approval from the Director. 4. Criteria for granting special permission would include a limit of one container per lot and adequate screening from adjacent lots and streets. 5. New and existing cargo containers will be allowed outright in industrial zones. PROPOSED CODE CHANGES In order to implement the Council's policy direction on cargo containers staff suggests the following additions to the Zoning Code. Add the following definition of cargo container: 18.06.1XX Cargo Container. "Cargo container" means a standardized, reusable vessel that was: 1. Originally, specifically or formerly designed for or used in the packing, shipping, movement or trans ortation of frei • ht articles • oods or commodities and/or 2.

Last year the City Council considered a set of changes to the Zoning Code and passed a series of ordinances to implement the changes. One issue that the Council held back for additional research was regulation of the use of cargo containers as storage sheds. Staff presented the attached packet to the CAP Committee on January 15 and they decided that the issue needed to be discussed by the entire Council and so made no recommendation. It may be helpful for the Council to see how other jurisdictions have handled this issue. Below are code provisions from SeaTac and Burien. SeaTac allows containers in certain business and industrial zones subject to screening and location requirements. Businesses in all other zones (including residential) may apply to the Director to have containers as an accessory use, subject to the same requirements. Burien only allows containers in industrial zones or as accessory uses for parks, hospitals, schools, or community or government facilities. Both jurisdictions define containers used for storage as structures and therefore subject to building and zoning codes. Around the State Cashmere and Cheney prohibit the placement of cargo containers within the City for use as storage or living units. Pasco prohibits their use in single family zones but allows them for storage in the retail business zone. Moses Lake allows them for storage only in industrial zones. Tacoma prohibits shipping containers in excess of 120 square feet as accessory buildings in all residential zones but allows them in industrial zones. SeaTac's Definition 15.10.098 Cargo Containers A standardized, reusable vessel, designed without an axle or wheels, which was: A. Originally, specifically, or formerly designed for or used in the packing, shipping, movement or transportation of freight, articles, goods or commodities, and /or, B. Designed for or capable of being mounted or moved on a rail car, and /or, C. Designed for or capable of being mounted on a chassis or bogie for movement by truck trailer or z loaded on a ship. I z When used for any purpose other than those listed in A above, a cargo container is a structure. 6 Burien's Definition 0 0 co tu 19.10.054 Cargo container - A standardized, reusable vessel which was: - 1.

The property owner may request additional cargo containers subject to the Conditional Use Permit (CUP) process under Section 15.22.030 of this Title. Adjacent property is defined as property that abuts the residential zone. Property located across a public right -of -way is not regarded as adjacent property. 9. Cargo containers shall not be stacked. 15.13.064 Cargo Containers — Loss of Nonconforming Status Cargo containers that have been legally located on property prior to the adoption of Sections 15.13.062 and 15.13.063 shall be a legal nonconforming use of the property. Cargo containers shall lose legal nonconforming status under the following circumstances: z A. Any legal nonconforming cargo container that is moved to a different location on a site shall comply with the requirements of Sections 15.13.062 and /or 15.13.063. B. If a legal nonconforming cargo container is removed from a property, any subsequent cargo containers placed on the property shall comply with the requirements of Sections 15.13.062 and /or 15.13.063. C. If a legal nonconforming cargo container is moved off a residential zoned property containing a residential use, no new container may be moved onto the property. Burien's Code Language .040 Cargo Containers Use of cargo containers for any purpose is prohibited in all zones except as follows: Cargo containers are allowed in the industrial zone, provided that all requirements of this Code pertaining to structures shall apply. The Director may allow cargo containers in any zone as an accessory use at a community facility, government facility, hospital, public park and recreation facility, or school. The cargo container shall: A. Comply with all requirements of this Code pertaining to structures and be painted to match the adjacent building. B. Be located to minimize visual impact to adjacent properties, streets, and pedestrian facilities. 3. Licensed and bonded contractors may use cargo containers in any zone for temporary storage of equipment and /or materials at a construction site during construction that is authorized by a city building permit. REQUESTED ACTION Provide Staff with policy direction about cargo container regulations. Staff will then develop draft code language and the necessary inventory or notice materials. Community and Parks January 15, 2002 Present: Joe Duffle, Chair; Joan Hernandez, Pam Carter Steve Lancaster, Bruce Fletcher, Nora Gierloff, Rhonda Berry, Lucy Lauterbach Cargo Container Regulations Nora explained that when the Council considered code amendments last fall, they took cargo containers out of the ordinance in order to study the issue more thoroughly. Staff did an inventory in October and November, taking pictures of containers in both commercial and residential areas. Nora had made a flow chart for decision making, which the committee expressed appreciation for. Joan and Pam both thought it would be easier to make a decision following the chart. The committee decided they preferred not to make a decision without input from the other council members, so they recommended the discussion to a COW. Pam and Joan were both leaning toward leaving the current containers if they could be screened, though Joan was also considering requiring their removal in a year. Staff noted and Joe agreed that many more containers that have gone in since the survey was done. Steve L said it would be hard to grandfather containers in since it's nearly impossible to accurately survey all that are here at a certain time, since no permits are needed. One of the issues that arose was whether containers that are put up next to wood fences or walls are safe from the fire point of view. Steve commented that although residential and commercial areas might be treated differently on this issue, containers on the river side of the old Nendels, and next to the trail by Embassy Suites, were examples of less than desirable commercial containers. Recommend discussion to COW. Update on Sacred Site /Poverty Hill Bruce updated the committee on work the citizen committee has done on the west side of Poverty I ill. The citizen group's name is Friends of Duwamish Hills. They have been working with the Cascade Land Conservancy, which has pledged to help to try to buy the property. The property owner has given the Conservancy 18 months to come up with funding for the property, which is assessed at just under $1 million. The conservancy has applied for a $100,000 grant, and hopes to apply for more grants as well. The owner has agreed to pay for an appraisal hired by the Land Conservancy, and that should be due soon. Pam asked about the Duwamish and Muckleshoot tribes and whether they could contribute; Bruce said they are represented at the Friends meetings. Steve noted that there was a proposal from a developer for the property, and though he hasn't acted much in the past two years, Steve thought he still had a chance to do the environmental assessment required by DCD. Bruce said that he has emphasized to the Land Conservancy that the City is happy to work with them, but that the City has no money for this project. Long term, he said, it would be nice.to develop the park into an accessible, passive park. Information.

One issue that the Council held back for additional research was regulation of the use of cargo containers as storage sheds. The City Council originally recommended that cargo containers be banned from LDR, MDR, HDR and MUO Zones. The Planning Commission expanded that to recommend banning cargo containers from all non - industrial zones (LDR, MDR, HDR, MUO, 0, RCC, NCC, RC, RCM, TUC). They were not in favor of any type of exemption for schools such as Showalter Middle School where containers are used to store emergency supplies. Members of the Council raised the idea of allowing the containers with a conditional use permit and appropriate screening. At the September 17` Council meeting Staff was asked to perform an inventory of existing containers and repgrt back to the CAP for policy direction. RESEARCH City of Tukwila Department of Community Development Steve Lancaster, Director MEMORANDUM Steven M. Mullet, Mayor Staff has used aerial photos and a drive by survey to identify a representative, but not complete inventory of containers in residential and commercial zones. A complete inventory would require additional time. Industrial zones were excluded because no regulations have been proposed for industrial areas. Attachment A contains a map of the locations where containers were sighted. Attachment B contains photographs of the containers. Attachment C is a sales brochure for a company selling new and used containers for use as offices and storage.

O ~' z Background City of Tukwila Department of Community Development Steve Lancaster, Director MEMORANDUM TO: Council of the Whole FROM: Steve Lancaster, DCD Director \`. i RE: Code amendments related to gro p homes and correctional facilities. DATE: September 27, 2001 Steven M. Mullet, Mayor Staff had briefed Council of the Whole on September 10, 2001, regarding proposed code amendments related to group homes and correctional facilities. It was decided to hold a public hearing on October 1, 2001 and some additional information was requested regarding the issues discussed below. Items for further discussion 1. Council had requested a list of zoning districts that currently allow churches, colleges and universities. This was requested in order to decide if dormitories should also be allowed in the zones that allow churches and schools since they are generally associated with churches and schools. The proposed ordinance defines a dormitory as a residential building or use that provides housing for students attending an affiliated school or housing for members of a religious order. The current code lists churches as a conditional use in all zones except MIC/L and MIC/H. It is listed as the conditional use in the following zones: LDR, MDR, HDR, MUO, 0, RCC, NCC, RC, RCM, TUC, C/LI, LI, HI and TVS. Colleges and Universities are listed as conditional uses in all commercial and industrial zones except RCC. They are listed as conditional uses in the MUO, 0, NCC, RC, RCM, TUC, C/LI, LI, HI, MIC/L, MIC/H and TVS zones. Schools or studios for education and self improvement are listed as permitted uses in all commercial and industrial zones -MUO, 0, RCC, NCC, RC, RCM, TUC, C/LI, LI, HI, MIC/L, MIC/H and TVS zones. If the Council decides to allow dormitories in commercial and industrial zones, they could be listed as an accessory use to a church, college or university. 6300 Southcenter Boulevard, Suite #100 • Tukwila, Washington 98188 • Phone: 206 - 431 -3670 • Fax: 206 - 431 -3665 Summary Group Homes and Correctional Facilities Page 2 of 2 2. The second item that was not decided was whether to allow boarding homes in the LDR zone. The proposed ordinance lists dormitories and boarding homes as conditional uses in the LDR, MDR and HDR zones. There are no Federal Fair Housing Act issues associated with boarding homes and dormitories and it is simply Council's policy decision where these types of facilities should be allowed. One option may be to only allow boarding homes in the MDR and HDR zones and not in the LDR zone. The second option may be to list it as a conditional use in the LDR, MDR and HDR zones but to establish a limit on the number of residents in the LDR zone. 3. The third item that was left for further discussion was the parking standards for residential uses. The ordinance lists a requirement of two off - street parking spaces for each dwelling unit, which has up to three bedrooms. One additional off -street parking space is required for every two bedrooms in excess of three bedrooms in a dwelling unit. If the Council feels that the parking standard should be increased, it can be changed to one additional off -street parking space for every bedroom in excess of three bedrooms in a dwelling unit. Also per the proposed ordinance, the Director shall have the discretion to waive the requirement to construct a portion of the off -street parking requirements if, based on a parking demand study, the property owner establishes that the dwelling will be used primarily to house residents who do not and will not drive due to a factor other than age. Such a study shall assure that ample parking is provided for residents who can drive, guests, caregivers and other persons who work at the residence. If such a waiver is granted, the property owner shall provide a site plan which demonstrates that, in the event of a change of use which eliminates the reason for the waiver, there is ample room on the site to provide the number of off -street parking spaces required by the Code. In the event that a change of use or type of occupant is proposed that would alter the potential number of drivers living or working at the dwelling, the application for change of use shall be conditioned on construction of any additional off -street parking spaces required to meet the parking standards. 4. Lastly, Councilmember Haggerton had asked if State Law required fences around play areas for family child care facilities. Department of Social and Health Services (DSHS) has requirements regarding outdoor play areas including minimum size requirements and fencing requirements. The proposed ordinance states that the facility shall be licensed by DSHS and shall meet all their requirements. Staff will incorporate any revisions to the proposed ordinance that Council may suggest following the discussion related to the above listed items and after obtaining public input at the public hearing. Staff will then bring the ordinance for adoption at the next Council meeting. 3a..Lfw r4.tl.{:isiX.'..$.kilaL•� .7 ifiLq.'%+1ri' - ki C • �O ` �y .Y ".J' alak ut '... 7 wart, Size of lot (square feet) Max.

Mullet, Mayor 1. Do not have a definition of family and no limit on the number of people living in a residence. Instead regulate the impacts associated with group living arrangements such as size of the structure and parking. 2. In the LDR zone limit the footprint of residential structures to regulate the bulk and size of such structures and to ensure the compatibility with existing residential homes. Code amendments pertaining to building footprint were adopted on September 17, 2001, as part of other miscellaneous code amendments. Building footprint shall be based on a sliding scale relative to the size of the lot. A residential structure could have twice or three times as much square footage as "footprint" (two or three story houses). The following table illustrates the maximum footprint calculations based on the formula in the ordinance. 6300 Southcenter Boulevard, Suite #100 • Tukwila, Washington 98188 • Phone: 206- 431 -3670 • Fax: 206 - 431 -3665 Correctional Institutions Group Homes and Correctional Facilities Page 2 of 3 3. Impacts such as parking should be regulated by requiring additional on -site parking spaces based on the number of bedrooms in a residential structure. Two off -street parking spaces shall be provided for each dwelling unit. One additional off -street parking space shall be required for every two bedrooms in excess of three bedrooms in a dwelling unit. The Director shall have the discretion to waive the requirement to construct a portion of the off -street parking requirement, if based on a parking demand study, the property owner establishes that the dwelling will be used primarily to house residents who do not and will not drive due a factor other than age. In the event that a waiver is granted, the owner must still show on a site plan that there is ample room on site to provide the number of off -street parking spaces in the event there is change of use or occupant. 4. Regulate transitory housing such as Bed and Breakfast, boarding homes and dormitories, which are not generally an ADA issue, by separately defining them and having specific criteria and process for their approval. Bed and Breakfast facilities are proposed as conditional uses in all residential zones provided 1) manager /owner lives on site, 2) the maximum number of residents at one time is twelve, 3) two on -site parking spaces for permanent residents and one additional on -site parking space for each bedroom rented to customers, 4) the maximum length of stay is 14 days, 5) breakfast must be offered on -site and all necessary permits obtained from the Health Department. Boarding homes and dormitories are listed as conditional uses with no limit on the number of residents in all residential zones. 5. Allow shelters for abuse victims and run away youth as a permitted use in LDR, MDR, HDR, MUO and 0 zones. Minors below the age of 18 years fall under the federally protected class of `familial status' and are considered protected under Federal Fair Housing Act. 6. Define convalescent centers as residential facilities providing 24 -hour skilled nursing care. Allow these facilities for less than 12 patients in MDR, HDR and other commercial zones that allow some form of residential use. Convalescent centers for more than 12 residents are allowed in all commercial zones that allow some form of residential use. 1. Create a definition of correctional institution that includes all facilities used for incarceration, confinement or detention of individuals including halfway houses for offenders who are required to live in such facilities as a condition of their release from correctional facility. 2. Allow correctional institutions in MIC/H, LI, HI zones as unclassified use. Per State Law, correctional facilities are considered essential public facilities and no local comprehensive plan or development regulation may preclude the siting of essential public facilities. Type of Facility Zoning District Process Any type of group living arrangement except for B &B, dorm, boarding home, shelter or correctional facility. Examples of these types of facilities include Adult family, home for physically or mentally disabled, Oxford houses for residents who are not under criminal justice system, Halfway houses for drug and alcohol rehab for residents who not under court order, halfway houses for juvenile offenders. It would be considered a residential use and permitted in LDR, MDR, HDR and other commercial zones that allow any form of residential use subject to meeting development standards of the underlying zone. Residential structures in LDR zone would be subject to maximum footprint regulations and revised parking standards. Permitted Bed and Breakfast up to 12 residents.

Local governments are required to provide for group uj 0 homes in the housing element of their comprehensive plans. Washington's Department of Community, Trade and Economic Development (CTED) and Department of Social and Health Services (DSHS) provide technical assistance to communities with questions about group homes. The questions that follow represent those asked by local governments. The two departments w have developed this question and answer format to assist communities developing local plans z and regulations that apply to group homes. The information provided is intended to give you z o general guidance on how growth management and fair housing laws apply. You should obtain LLI legal advice before drafting specific ordinances. If you have further questions, please contact 0 growth management staff at CTED 360 -753 -2222 or DSHS staff at 360- 902 -8164. o P w w I O Question: What is the definition of a "group home" and what constitutes group u" w U= Answer: The term group home applies to many types of residences. Usually the z term is used for homes where the residents live and receive care or supervision. Residents pay a monthly fee that includes rent and care services. Often, a state agency licenses the home. It can include residences where the care is provided either by resident staff or non - resident staff. The term can also apply to residences with unrelated persons with a common disability, such as an Oxford House. These homes are not licensed by state agencies. homes? Examples of group homes include: Adult family homes. DSHS licenses family homes that provide specialized care and support to adults. Adult family homes may have up to six residents. Providers of the services either live in the home or are employed to work at the home. Boarding homes. These may be small homes or larger facilities. They are licensed by DSHS for three or more residents who need assistance in their daily living. Oxford Houses. A group of adults recovering from alcohol or substance abuse rent these residences together. The group setting allows people to pool their resources and provide peer support for their recovery. Some group homes provide care for children. Children live in group homes for a variety of reasons. They may be in a group home because they require specific care needs due to a disability. Others are placed in group homes because their parents are unable or unwilling to care for them, they are dependent as a result of abuse or neglect, or they are homeless. Others have committed a juvenile offense and are screened and placed in a group home as preparation for their return to the community. Some children are place in foster care homes. Foster family homes are not considered group homes by statute and are specifically recognized as single family residences. Question: What role does the state have in regulating group homes, and to what extent can local governments regulate group homes or adult care facilities? Answer: The Legislature has given state agencies responsibility to license and inspect certain types of group homes. DSHS is responsible for licensing and inspection of adult family homes, foster and group care homes for children, and boarding homes. The Department of Health (DOH) is responsible for licensing residential treatment facilities for adults, including adult residential treatment facilities. In some facilities licensed by DOH, DSHS is responsible for certification of the care and treatment programs. State responsibilities include defining criteria for eligible providers, reviewing applications from providers, inspecting homes for licensing and for continued compliance with licensing requirements, and investigating complaints and determining sanctions, including closure of homes that do not meet program or licensing requirements. The state agencies license facilities independently of zoning requirements. It is the responsibility of providers to determine zoning regulations that apply to their situation. Local governments must comply with state and federal laws that may preempt their ability to put special zoning requirements on a group care facility. See: RCW 36.70A.410 (Growth Management Act); RCW 70.128.140 (Adult Family Homes); 42 USC 3604 (Federal Fair Housing Act as amended); RCW 49.60.222 -225 (Washington Laws Against Discrimination). �.�.....a.....''4`:.... i. Pia :. %'f• �1:.tiih1 .'� vci tarw.it rash • • Question: Does state law preempt cities or counties from regulating adult family homes regulated under RCW 70. 128 if no residents of the home are involved in the operation of the home? Answer: Yes. RCW 70.128.140 states that each adult family home shall meet applicable licensing, zoning, building, housing, and fire and safety codes as they pertain to a single - family residence. The defmition of adult family homes contained in RCW 70.128.010 includes homes that operated by non - resident providers. Other state and federal laws also limit local government regulation of homes in which persons with disabilities reside. See: RCW 49.60.222(2)(b), Washington Laws against discrimination; RCW 36.70A.410 Growth Management Act; 42 USC 3604 Federal Fair Housing Act as amended. Question: What is a recommended definition of "family" that is appropriate for zoning codes and land use regulations since this might impact group homes ordinance? Answer: The following defmition is used by some communities: "A group of individuals not necessarily related by blood, marriage, or legal custody, living together in a dwelling unit as a single housekeeping unit under a common housekeeping management plan based on an intentionally structured relationship providing organization and stability." Question: What are the limits of the Federal Fair Housing Act on cities' ability to regulate group homes? Answer: The Fair Housing Act prohibits discrimination because of race, color, religion, sex, handicap, familial status, and national origin. All group homes, because they are used as residences, count as a "dwelling" under the federal Fair Housing Act (FHA) and the Washington Law Against Discrimination. This means that the prohibition against discrimination applies. These protections apply against discriminatory zoning laws, land use restrictions, or restrictive covenants. Most adults and children in most group homes would qualify as disabled under the FHA and the Washington Law Against Discrimination. In addition, a recent federal court in Washington state ruled that children in group care facilities also meet the definition of "familial status." The FHA and the Washington Law Against Discrimination impose three separate restrictions or requirements: z `~ w re 2 J U Co o CO J i 2 w w u Q • d w z E 0 z 1-- w w U � o D- O H = I- O w z U C° O H z • They prohibit discrimination on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, handicap, familial status, and national origin. • They restrict policies or practices that may not be intended to discriminate but have a discriminatory and restrictive effect that cannot be adequately justified by a legitimate local purpose. • They require "reasonable accommodation" in rules, policies, practices, or services that may be necessary to permit a handicapped person the opportunity to equally enjoy a residence of his or her choice. A local government must waive or modify a rule, policy, practice, or service if a request for such accommodation is made by or on behalf of a disabled person, the requested accommodation "may be necessary" to the person's "equal opportunity to use and enjoy a dwelling," and the requested accommodation is "reasonable." The law does not provide a formula for defining what requests would be reasonable. Instead the law requires an individualized assessment based upon the facts of each particular request. Just because a request would impose a financial or administrative cost does not make it unreasonable. Generally, a request is reasonable if it does not impose an "undue" financial or administrative burden and does not require a fundamental change in the programs or systems of the person or entity considering the request, A required accommodation may not oblige the local government to revoke or repeal a rule or policy. It could require waiving or modifying a rule to accommodate a specific request. The law of reasonable accommodation is meant to require an active effort to listen to a disabled person's request, to understand his or her needs, and to explore reasonable ways to accommodate those needs. For this reason, at a minimum, local governments would be prudent to have processes in place to receive such requests and to insure that they give the requests appropriate consideration. Question: To what extent is housing for those currently under the jurisdiction of the criminal justice system protected under state and federal laws (for example, work release living arrangements or transitional housing where the person may still be reporting to someone)? Do they fall within the group home category? Answer: Fair housing laws do not mention persons who are under the jurisdiction of the criminal justice system. Restrictions on such persons because of their criminal status, therefore, would not directly raise fair housing issues. However, such persons, like any others, may also be disabled or in other ways may be protected z • • • z Q w J U U 0 • W U U J = U) LL w � Q w d = W z � F-0 z F- w w D o U O - O F- ww • U O ..z w • = O F' z by the FHA. Restrictions that are discriminatory on prohibited grounds or that have an unjustified discriminatory effect would violate the FHA. Certain state laws address community facilities that house Department of Corrections (DOC) inmates. RCW 72.65.210 -220 requires DOC and their vendors to work with local governments to develop siting policies and participate in public notification processes. The GMA requires local governments to develop a plan for identifying and locating facilities that are difficult to site. In addition, local governments may not preclude the siting of essential public facilities (RCW 36.70A.220). Essential public facilities would include group homes that are not otherwise protected under other fair housing laws. Question: Is housing for those who have previously been under the jurisdiction of the criminal justice system protected (for example, group homes for those who have served their time and are not currently reporting to the criminal justice system)? Answer: We are not aware of group homes established solely for persons who were formerly under the jurisdiction of the criminal justice system. Thus, if a person is in a group home based on a disability or other protected status, they would be covered by fair housing laws Question: Our definition of "family" allows up to eight unrelated individuals. Is this a good approach? If not, what should the number of unrelated individuals al /owed be and why? Answer: Jurisdictions have taken many approaches to defining families, including putting a numerical limit on the number of unrelated persons. To.the extent that the limit of eight unrelated persons has the effect or intent of restricting housing for persons with disabilities or other protected classes, its application against a group home could violate the Federal Fair Housing Act and the Washington Laws Against Discrimination. The City of Edmonds refused to grant an exception to its regulation limiting the number of unrelated individuals in a house. The Supreme Court found that occupancy limits were subject to review under the Fair Housing Act to the extent that they treated unrelated persons differently than families (City of Edmonds v. Oxford House, 115 S. Ct. 1776, 1995). In addition, the GMA states: "No city may enact or maintain an ordinance, development regulation, zoning regulation or official control, policy, or administrative practice which treats a residential structure occupied by persons with handicaps differently than a similar residential structure occupied by a family or other unrelated individuals..." (RCW 36.70A.410). If an ordinance quantifies the number of persons who compose a family, you might consider a process for reasonable accommodation discussed above. z ct re f w �U 00 U w _ w • 0 2 � ti. < co = w Z = �- 0 z r- w Lij 2 o O • - O H wW I 1- - • O .. z w co 0 z Question: In our primarily single - family neighborhoods, most group homes are treated as families and allowed outright. Is this a good approach? If not, what is a better approach? Answer: This is a good approach. It recognizes that group homes are community assets for their citizens. Most studies conclude that group homes do not present problems of crime, property devaluation, or neighborhood disruption. Instead, they provide necessary care and supervision for citizens who would otherwise be without supervision. You may want to review the restrictions you have on the group homes that are not allowed outright and make sure that the restrictions do not prohibit persons within protected classes of the fair housing laws. Local governments still have the same regulatory and police authority available for problems that may arise in group homes and other residences. These include nuisance and criminal laws, laws governing appearance of property, maintenance, and required building to lot size ratios. Most group homes are also subject to licensing standards, and problems can be brought to the attention of the licensing authority. Question: Does a jurisdiction have to have the same standards for all group homes? Can there be different development standards, such as dispersion, for group homes with youthful offenders or transitional populations? Or, can an incentive apply for a group home to be located in a particular area, such as within a certain neighborhood plan area where there are a variety of services or within a certain distance from a designated neighborhood center? Answer: Again, whether or not a group home is protected under fair housing laws depends on the whether the residents are within a protected class described by the law. Children who are under the jurisdiction of the state, including youthful offenders, have been included in the Fair Housing Act's definition of "familial status." See The Children's Alliance et al. v. The City of Bellevue, 95 F. Supp. 1491, (1997). For residents of homes who are within a protected class, methods such as dispersion used to restrict a person's opportunity to enjoy a dwelling could violate fair housing laws. There should be no problems with incentives. However, if the incentives are combined with restrictions in other residential areas, the ordinances could violate fair housing laws. In 1998, the Legislature passed a bill that addresses siting of group homes for youthful offenders. E2SSB 6445 requires DSHS to establish procedures for community involvement when siting juvenile rehabilitation administration 6 .ttM7i4 "14:pd+` t community facilities. The law requires DSHS to establish a public process to be followed by the department and its vendors when establishing or relocating group homes. The process includes public meetings and opportunity for written comment in communities considered for group home placement. In addition, the department is to coordinate its planning and notification efforts with the local jurisdiction. _� il Question: How can a jurisdiction deal with public notice for certain types of - o homes which require a low profile or secrecy as part of their siting co 0 process, an example being a facility for abused women and children? w Answer: You might consider modifying or waiving the public notice requirement. It is not w necessary to go through a public hearing process for this type of home. Most g communities recognize the need for allowing such homes as a permitted use in all LL- residential areas. = w t- z � o Question: Do group homes have to be allowed anywhere a residential use is w w allowed? A specific instance is second story residential in a mixed -use building. o 22 0 E w w Answer: Absent specific health and safety concerns, group homes that house persons i = protected under fair housing laws should not be prohibited within a residential �- area. As discussed in question one, many group homes require licensing. State ti.i Z licensing requirements might require ground floor bedrooms or have other v requirements that would restrict a provider's ability to license a group home on a z ~ second story residential setting. Not all residents in group homes would have health or safety considerations that would restrict their location. Question: What resources and /or contacts are available from Washington state to aid local jurisdictions in successfully tracking the location of the frequently moving group homes or residential care centers? Answer: Most licensing information is public record. Within DSHS, you should contact the division within your region and ask them for a list of licensed homes. 7 Question: Could we, as a local entity, impose licensing /location requirements on residential home care facilities? Concentration of such facilities continues to be a concern in certain neighborhoods. There must be something that local jurisdictions can do outside the scope of the Fair Housing Act. z z Answer: The Legislature delegated licensing of group home facilities to state agencies. ce LLI Lawsuits challenging a local government's dispersal and location requirements 6 v have generally been successful. Courts have stated that generalized, 0 o unsubstantiated community fear is an improper basis for regulating group homes. w J H • u_ w Question: Given federal fair housing laws, how can we limit the units and /or persons so that the project is "compatible" with its surrounding area • Q (for example, r -2 zoning district)?

O .. z Question: Given federal fair housing laws, how can we limit the type of group o homes going into an area. For example, how could we allow projects o for the mentally ill and /or developmentally disabled, but not allow Z projects for criminal halfway houses? Answer: As of this date, we are unaware of case law that brings adult correctional work release facilities under the protection of federal or state fair housing laws. While jurisdictions may not preclude essential public facilities, such as work release facilities, they can set up processes for siting this type of group home. 8 Section 1 -14 Summary of the Proposed Ordinance Definitions of Adult Family Home (repealed), Multifamily Dwelling (revised), Single Family Dwelling (revised), Dwelling Unit (revised), Family (repealed), Floor Area Ratio (repealed), Family Child Care Home (revised), Home Occupation (revised), Boarding Home (added), Building Footprint (added), Convalescent Center (added), Shelter (added), Correctional Facility (added) Section 15 19 LDR zone Shelters listed as permitted use.

Globix Corporation urges the City Council to avoid changes to the code that would eliminate internet data centers from the list of allowable uses in the TUC zone. Globix firmly believes that its facilities are compatible with the zoning goals of the TUC zone. z w 6 00 (Do cn w 111 H w 2 J • a = z � I— 0 Z • ~ U • 0 O — O I— W U. P .z El U 0 Moreover, Globix entered into its lease in Tukwila after receiving repeated confirmations from the City of Tukwila, beginning in May of 2000, that internet data/telecommunication centers and internet hosting facilities were allowed as-of -right in the TUC zone and specifically for the Globix lease property. If such data centers were eliminated as an allowable use in this zone, Globix's plans to develop its Tukwila internet data facility could be halted. While Globix has been issued permits for its data center, those permits will soon expire and it is not certain at this point when the Globix development can be completed. If the City decided at this late date to disallow internet data centers in the TUC zone, this could result in substantial economic losses to Globix. As you know, under Washington law, a permit application must be considered in accordance with the zoning laws in effect at the time a complete permit application is submitted. The purpose of this rule is to allow property owners and developers to determine which rules will govern their land development. Clearly, the City of Tukwila recognized (and continues to recognize) internet data centers as an allowable use in the TUC zone. This was the case at the time Globix submitted a complete application for its development. If the code is changed in the future to disallow internet facilities in the TUC zone, we request a written assurance from the City that Globix's development will nonetheless be vested and allowed to proceed as a legal nonconforming use, even if the Globix permits and approvals expire and must be re- issued in the future. In any event, on behalf of the Globix Corporation, we respectfully urge the City Council to retain the internet data/telecommunication center use as an allowable use in the TUC zone. Please feel free to call me or Stephen Day of our firm at the telephone number listed above. Thank you very much for your consideration of these matters.

WHEREAS, Tukwila's development regulations may .be reviewed and updated as appropriate; and WHEREAS, the floor area ratio standard in LDR is unduly restrictive on small legally non- conforming lots, and a sliding scale building footprint standard is more equitable; and WHEREAS, the method for calculating building height in the Washington State Building Code is more exact and less open to misinterpretation than Tukwila's current method; and WHEREAS, the difference between Tukwila's definition of story and that in the Washington State Building Code causes confusion and misunderstanding ; and WHEREAS, increased front and second -front setbacks for the second story of structures in LDR can result in a streetscape of protruding garages; and WHEREAS, Figure 18 -4, Location and Measurement of Yards on Lots, does not correctly show the second front condition; and • — WHEREAS, the inclusion of "High Tech" in the list of permitted uses is ambiguous and unnecessary because the underlying uses are called out specifically in the various zones; and WHEREAS, the Zoning Code does not provide a process for a developer who controls parcels on both sides of a public R-O -W to bridge the street with a structure; and WHEREAS, the landscape plan requirement section of the Zoning Code does not list quantity or typical planting details which are needed to fully evaluate a plan; and WHEREAS, the fee for street vacations is more appropriately listed in the Street and Alley Vacation Procedure chapter rather than the Zoning Code; and WHEREAS, Tukwila's fire engines require the same turning radius regardless of the use of the site, so different standards for cul -de -sacs in single - family, multi - family and commercial developments are unnecessary; and % abBYaxi +��?fi!aYiY's4f441 Nantyi.'381f �v.` iwiJl L <<G52YLi «u.�alviSl3wFN;Ef�Yli -t LDR BASIC DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS Lot area, minimum 6,500 sq. ft.

Dedication of additional right -of -way may be required for a short plat when it is necessary to meet the minimum street width standards or when lack of such dedication would cause or contribute to an unsafe road or intersection. 2. NAMES - All proposed street names or numbers shall be subject to approval by the Department of Community Development. 3. INTERSECTIONS - Any intersection of public streets, whatever the classification, shall be at right angles as nearly as possible and not be offset insofar as practical. Type of Street Right -of -Way Roadway Pavement Principal Arterial 80 -100 feet 48 -84 feet Miner Arterial 60-80 feet 36-64 feet Collector Arterial 60 -80 feet 24 -48 feet Access Road 50 -60 feet 28 -36 feet Cul -De -Sac Roadway 40 feet 26 feet Turnaround 92 feet (dia.) 81 feet (dia.) Alley 20 feet 15 feet Private Access Roads: Residential 20 feet 20 feet Commercial 40 feet 28 feet 4. STREET LAYOUT - Street layout shall provide for the most advantageous development of the subdivision, adjoining areas, and the entire neighborhood. Evaluation of street layout shall take into consideration potential circulation solutions. While it is important to minimize the impact to the topography from creating an integrated road system, improved site development and circulation solutions shall not be sacrificed to minimize the amount of cut and fill requirements of the proposal. Where sensitive areas are impacted, the standards and procedures for rights -of -way in the sensitive areas overlay zone shall be followed. 5. Private access roads may be authorized if: a. Allowing private access roads in the area being subdivided will not adversely affect future circulation in neighboring parcels of property; and b. Adequate and reasonable provisions are made for the future maintenance and repair of the proposed private access roads; and c. The proposed private access roads can accommodate potential full (future) development on the lots created; and d. For residential subdivisions, the proposed private access roads do not serve more than four lots nor are more than 200 feet in length. Those access roads 150 feet or greater in length shall have a turnaround built to Fire Department standards. • e. For commercial and industrial subdivisions, when private access roads are authorized, there shall be a minimum easement width of 40 feet. With the exception of minimum easement widths, private access roads shall be designed and constructed in accordance with the Department of Public Works standards, and zoning setbacks shall be required as though the easement were a public right-of-way. 6. PUBLIC ROADS - a. Right -of -way and paving widths for public roads shall be based as shown in the following table. The minimum paving and right -of -way width shall be used unless the City Engineer demonstrates a wider width is needed due to site circumstances, including but not limited to topography, traffic volume, street patterns, on- street parking, lot patterns, land use and bike and transit facilities, that justify an increase in width. b. Design: The design and alignment of all public streets shall conform to the following standards unless otherwise approved by the Department of Public Works: (1) Cul -de -sacs: Cul -de -sacs are not allowed unless there is no reasonable alternative or the cul -de -sac is shown on an officially adopted street plan. When allowed, they shall not exceed a length of 600 feet unless the City Council determines that adequate alternative emergency access will be provided. • (2) Street Grades: Street grades shall not exceed 15 %. However, provided there are no vehicular access points, grades may be allowed up to 18%, for not more than 200 feet when: (a) Exceeding the grades would facilitate a through street and connection with the larger neighborhood; (b) The greater grade would minimize disturbance of sensitive slopes; (c) The Fire Marshal grants approval of the grade transition; and z (d) Tangents, horizontal curves, vertical curves, and right -of -way improvements conform to Department of Public Works standards. z o: c. Full width improvement: UO (1) When interior to a subdivision or a short plat of five or more lots, all cn 0 publicly owned streets shall be designed and installed to full width improvement as provided W H below: cn u- (a) Shall be graded as necessary to conform to Department of Public w O Works standards.

Works standards. Public Works. d. Half width improvement: (1) Streets abutting the perimeter of a subdivision or short plat of five or more lots shall provide the full improvements on the half of the street adjacent to the site, provided additional paving may be required to ensure safe and efficient roads exist to serve the subdivision; provided further that there are no physical obstructions to completing the other half of the roadway; and that there is a minimum of 20 feet of paving. (2) If the future grade or alignment of the adjacent public street is unknown and it is not feasible to establish the grade in a reasonable period or the immediate improvement of the street would result in a short, isolated segment of improved street and similar street improvements in the vicinity are unlikely to occur within six years, the City may approve a delay of improvements. The owner(s) must agree to enter into a binding L.I.D. no- protest agreement to further improve the street to full public street standards in the future, however adjacent streets must still be improved to the minimum level necessary, in the judgment of the City Engineer, to safely accommodate traffic generated by the proposed subdivision or short plat. (3) Streets abutting the perimeter of a short plat of four or fewer lots shall provide L.I.D. no- protest agreements for construction of frontal improvements on the half of the street adjacent to the site, provided that there is a minimum of 20 feet of paving. D. Utilities. 1. GENERALLY - All utilities designed to serve the subdivision shall be placed underground and, if located within a sensitive area, shall be designed to meet the standards of the sensitive areas overlay zone. Those utilities to be located beneath paved surfaces shall be installed, including all service connections, as approved by the Department of Public Works; such installation shall be completed and approved prior to application of any surface materials. Easements may be required for the maintenance and operation of utilities as specified by the Public Works Department. 2. SANITAR YSEWERS- Sanitary sewers shall be provided to each lot at no cost to tle City and designed in accordance with City standards. Septic systems may be installed when approved by the Seattle -King County Department of Public Health and when the existing sewer system will not be available to the lot within the life of the preliminary approval. 3. STORM DRAINAGE - The storm drainage collection system shall meet the requirements of the City's stormwater ordinance standards (Ordinance No.1755). 4. WATER SYSTEM - Each lot within a proposed subdivision shall be served by a water distribution system designed and installed in accordance with City standards. Locations of fire hydrants and flow rates shall be in accordance with City standards and the Uniform Fire Code. E. Blocks. 1. LENGTH - Residential blocks should not be less than 300 feet nor more than 1,000 feet in length (600 - 2,000 feet for commercial and industrial areas). Where circumstances warrant for the purpose of implementing the Comprehensive Plan, the Planning Commission may require one or more public pathways of not less than six feet nor more than 15 feet in width, either by dedication or easement, to extend entirely across the width of the block to connect public rights -of -way. 2. WIDTH - Blocks shall be wide enough to allow two tiers of lots, except where abutting a major street or prevented by topographical conditions or size of the property, in which case the City Council may approve a single tier. • • F. Lots. G. Landscaping. 2. Landscaping shall conform with Public Work standards. J. Monumentation. a. Centerline intersections. 3. PEDESTRIAN CONSIDERATIONS - Blocks, roads and pedestrian improvements shall be designed to provide a safe and convenient pedestrian network. 1. ARRANGEMENT -Insofar as practical, side lot lines shall be at right angles to street lines or radial to curved street lines. Each lot must have access to a public street that is approved at the time of plat review; however, rather than designing flag lots, access shall be accomplished with common drive easements. 2. LOT DESIGN- The lot area, width, shape, and orientation shall be appropriate for the location of the subdivision, for the type of development and land use contemplated, and shall conform with the requirements of the zoning ordinance. 3. CORNER LOTS - Corner lots may be required to be platted with additional width to allow for the additional side yard requirements. 1. Each lot within a new subdivision or short plat of five lots or greater shall be landscaped with at least one tree in the front yard to create a uniform streetscape. H. Street Signs. The subdivider shall be responsible for the initial cost of any street name or number signs, or street markings, including installation thereof, that Public Works finds necessary for the subdivision. I. Lighting. Street lighting shall• conform to the Department of Public Works standards unless the City Council requires alternative fixtures, poles, and/or spacing to contribute to an overall design concept of the subdivision. 1. IMPRINTED MONUMENT - All monuments set in subdivisions shall be at least 1/2 inch x 24 -inch steel bar or rod, or equivalent, with durable cap imprinted with the license number of the land surveyor setting the monument. 2. CENTERLINE MONUMENT - After paving, except as provided in TMC 17.20.030J.5, monuments shall be driven flush with the finished road surface at the following intersections: b. Points of intersection of curves if placement falls within • the paved area; otherwise, at the beginnings and endings of curves. c. Intersections of the plat boundaries and street center lines. 3. PROPERTY LINE MONUMENTATION - All front corners, rear corners, and beginnings and endings of curbs shall be set with monuments, except as provided in TMC 17.20.030J.5. In cases where street curbs are concentric and/or parallel with front right -of -way lines, front property line monumentation may be provided by brass screws or concrete nails at the intersections of curb lines and the projections of side property lines. If curb monumentation is used, it shall be noted on the plat, and also that such monumentation is good for projection of line only and not for distance. • 4. POST MONUMENTATION - All monuments for exterior boundaries of the subdivision shall be set and referenced on the plat prior to plat recording. Interior monuments need not be set prior to recording if the developer certifies that the interior monuments shall be set within 90 days of final subdivision construction inspection by the Department of Public Works, and if the developer guarantees such interior monumentation. 5. POST MONUMENTATIONBONDS -In lieu of setting interior monuments prior to final plat recording as provided in TMC 17.20.030J.3, the Public Works Director may accept a bond in an amount and with surety and conditions satisfactory to the Director, or other secure method as the Public Works Director may require, providing for and securing the actual setting of the interior monuments. Section 22. Severability. If any section, subsection, paragraph, sentence, clause or phrase of this ordinance or its application to any person or situation should be held to be invalid or unconstitutional for any reason by a court of competent jurisdiction, such invalidity or unconstitutionality shall not affect the validity or constitutionality of the remaining portions of this ordinance or its application to any other person or situation.

TO: Mayor Mullet Members of the City Council FROM: Jack Pace, acting DCD Director RE: Proposed Zoning Code Amendm t DATE: September 12, 2001 BACKGROUND City of Tukwila MEMORANDUM Steven M. Mullet, Mayor Department of Community Development Steve Lancaster, Director Staff presented the Planning Commission's recommendations on the proposed code amendments to the Community Affairs and Parks Committee on August 14` and the COW on August 27` At the public hearing on September 4 the Council asked that the ordinance be split to allow the items that had consensus to be adopted while they continued to work on the other issues. The items that need additional study are the following: C. Prohibit the use of cargo containers in residential and commercial zones I. Add Pawnbrokers as allowed or conditional uses in specified Zones J. Add a defmition for Pawnbrokers K. Add Internet Data Centers as allowed or conditional uses in specified Zones M. Add a definition for Internet Data Centers PROPOSED CHANGES The items that the Council asked for additional information about are discussed below. C. Prohibit the use of cargo containers in residential and commercial zones The City Council originally recommended that cargo containers be banned from LDR, MDR, HDR and MUO Zones. The Planning Commission expanded that to recommend banning cargo containers from all non - industrial zones (LDR, MDR, HDR, MUO, 0, RCC, NCC, RC, RCM, TUC). They were not in favor of any type of exemption for schools. Members of the Council raised the idea of allowing the containers with a conditional use permit. Following are some suggested options for the Council along with implementation requirements: Page 1 6300 Southcenter Boulevard, Suite #100 • Tukwila, Washington 98188 • Phone: 206 - 431 -3670 • Fax: 206- 431 -3665 .

Allow existing containers to be "grandfathered" if the owners /tenants apply for a conditional use permit within 6 months, otherwise they must be removed No, owners would have to document date of installation Yes Yes, to notify of the CUP requirement for new containers Contact property owners /tenants during the period to notify them of the CUP or removal requirement Based on complaints about new containers Inspect each container site that has not applied for a CUP to verify removal, respond to complaints about new containers Typically the City handles policy changes in the Zoning Code by allowing existing uses to remain (be grandfathered) and prohibiting establishment of new uses that do not conform to the code change. This would correspond to option 1 a above. C: \Nora's Files \CODEAMND \Remaining Items.DOC Page 2 'iYi ..ur`siWl�'i'k'iE4i I. Add Pawnbrokers as allowed or conditional uses in specified Zones Pawnbrokers are not addressed in the Zoning Code and therefore are currently allowed in any zone that permits retail sa es (allowed m MUO, RCC, NCC, RC, RCM, TUC, C/LI, th t 1 11 d h ' z 1.

The City Council originally ,= z a recommended that pawnbrokers be allowed uses in the TUC, C/LI, LI, HI and TVS zones and re conditional uses in the RC and RCM zones. The NCC zone was not included because the —J 0 Council thought that pawn shops were a regional rather than neighborhood commercial use. cn 0 co ku J = The Planning Commission recommended that the proposed change not be pursued. The majority co u thought that pawnbrokers should be treated like any other retail use because the two existing w O pawnbrokers in the City (in the NCC zone) are not seen as having negative impacts. J LL Q The Council raised the idea of explicitly adding pawnbrokers to the list of permitted uses in all T a zones that allow retail (see Attachment A). This would clarify the status of pawnbrokers without z changing where they are allowed within the City. O z w D 0 U O- 0 I— sales are allowed. _ 0 1- _ 2.

The existing pawnbrokers would become legal non- conforming uses subject to the restrictions at TMC 18.70. 4. Add pawnbrokers as allowed uses in other zones. Existing pawnbrokers may or may not become legal non - conforming uses depending on whether NCC was included in the allowed zones. J. Add a definition for Pawnbrokers Based on the Planning Commission's recommendation for I no action is required on this proposal. If the Council elects to list pawnbrokers under the permitted uses sections the following definition should be included in the Zoning Code. 18.06.617 Pawn shop. "Pawn shop" is an establishment engaged in the buying or selling of new or secondhand merchandise and offering loans in exchange for personal property. C:\ Nora's_Files \CODEAMND\Remaining Items.DOC Page 3 z K. Add Internet Data Centers as allowed or conditional uses in specified Zones The Planning Commission recommended that internet data/telecommunication centers be added to the list of permitted uses in the RC, TUC, C/LI, LI, HI, MIC/L, MIC/H and TVS Zones. Due to the high electricity needs of these uses Council members thought that they would be best suited for areas that do not require undergrounding. According to the PW Director there are no = ~ z areas within the City exempted from undergrounding, however developers may apply to PW for a deferral. 0 In the past undergrounding has been required for the Qwest data center at Andover Park West w W and 180 Street and deferred for the data centers at Intergate East on Tukwila International Boulevard and 124`" Street. As data centers have been built with and without undergrounding it w 0 does not seem to affect their location decisions. g Q Staff's original proposal was to allow data centers in industrial but not commercial zones. The d reasoning was that while data centers have few direct impacts such as traffic their HVAC units I and emergency power generators can create high noise levels that are incompatible with office Z and retail uses. For efficiency and security the buildings generally have large floor plates with w o minimal windows or modulation. This presents design challenges in zones that require design review. Attachment B contains a map of all of the commercial and industrial zones in Tukwila. 8 o— o (— Options: V' � = • 1. Allow data centers in the 1 C, TUC, C/LI, LI, HI, MIC/L, MIC/H and TVS Zones. z iii 2. Allow data centers in the C/LI, LI, HI, MIC/L, MIC/H and TVS Zones. 0 z 3. Allow data centers in a different set of Zones. M. Add a definition for Internet Data Centers The Commission recommends that the following definition of "internet data/ telecommunication center" be added to the Zoning Code. Based on comments from the Council Staff recommends the following changes. 1 8.06.XXX Internet Data/Telecommunication Center. "Internet data /telecommunication center" means a secure, climate controlled facility with emergency backup power that contains either intemet data transmission and switching equipment and /or telecommunication transmission and switching equipment. This equipment may include computer network routers, switches and servers for one or more companies. REQUESTED ACTION Choose a policy direction for each of the above issues so that Staff can draft a second ordinance for approval.

BACKGROUND City of Tukwila Steven M. Mullet, Mayor Department of Community Development Steve Lancaster, Director TO: Mayor Mullet Members of the City Council FROM: Steve Lancaster, DCD Director RE: Proposed Zoning Code Amendments DATE: August 29, 2001 MEMORANDUM Staff presented the Planning Commission's recommendations on the proposed code amendments to the Community Affairs and Parks Committee on August 14' and the COW on August 27`''. They have been codified into a draft ordinance included in this packet as Attachment A. The minutes of the Planning Commission meetings on the code amendments are Attachment B. Background material from the COW packet has not been repeated in this packet. PROPOSED CHANGES Following are the Planning Commission's recommendations: A. Change the Floor Area Ratio limitation in LDR to a lot coverage standard The formula for the allowed percentage of the lot that may be covered by structures was developed as part of the group homes code amendments. The change would require striking the floor area ratio from the LDR development regulations, adding a definition of building footprint and adding a section to the LDR Chapter that lists the formula for maximum building footprint. Attachment C is a diagram showing the difference between floor area ratio and lot coverage. In the LDR zone limiting the footprint of residential structures will control the bulk and size of such structures and ensure the compatibility with existing homes. This should be based on a sliding scale relative to the size of the lot so that small lots are not penalized and large lots cannot be used for structures that are so large that they are of non - residential scale. A residential structure could have two or three times as much square footage as "footprint" (two or three story houses).

Eliminate increased setbacks for the second story of structures in LDR The Planning Commission recommends a 20 foot setback for the front and 10 foot setback for the second front in LDR, with no increase for the second story. Porches would still be allowed to be setback 15 feet from the front property line. They were not in favor of any type of design controls on single family houses. C. Prohibit the use of cargo containers as storage sheds in residential zones The Planning Commission recommends banning cargo containers from all non - industrial zones (LDR, MDR, HDR, MUO, 0, RCC, NCC, RC, RCM, TUC). They were not in favor of any type of exemption for schools. Members of the Council raised the idea of allowing the containers with a conditional use permit. A hearing notice has been sent to each school in Tukwila. D. Add additional detail to landscape plan requirements The Planning Commission recommends that quantity and typical planting details be added to the landscape plan requirements at TMC 18.52.050. E. Revise the Zoning Code definition of building height to match the Washington State Building Code The Planning Commission recommends that the definition of building height at TMC 18.06.100 be changed to match the Washington State Building Code. F. Revise the Zoning Code definition of story to match the Washington State Building Code The Planning Commission recommends that the definition of story at TMC 18.06.790 be changed to match the Washington State Building Code. The Building Official recommends that C: \Nora's _Files \CODEAMND \HearingMemo.DOC Page 2 the definition actually reference the State Code so that as it is updated our Zoning Code does not become out of date. So instead of changing the definition as shown below the we would use similar language to the building height change. 18.06.790 Story. "Story" means that portion of a building included between the upper surface of any floor and the upper surface of the floor next above, except that the topmost story shall be that portion of a building included between the upper surface of the topmost floor and the ceiling or roof above. If the finished floor level directly above a basement is more than twe six feet above grade for more than 2950% of the total perimeter or is twelve feet above grade as defined at any point, such basement shall be considered as a story. 18.06.790 Story. "Story" means story as defined in the Washington State Building Code. that - portion of ^ building G. Delete High Tech as a Use Category The Planning Commission recommends that the high tech category be deleted from MUO, 0, NCC, RC, RCM, TUC, C /LI, LI, HI, MIC/H and TVS Zones because the overly broad nature of high tech could result in the establishment of incompatible uses. H. Correct Figure 18 - 4 Location and Measurement of Yards on Lots The Planning Commission recommends that the diagram in the Zoning Code that displays how yards are determined be corrected to accurately show the "second front" condition for corner lots. I. Add Pawnbrokers as allowed or conditional uses in specified Zones The Planning Commission recommends that this proposed change not be pursued. The majority thought that pawnbrokers should be treated like any other retail use. The existing pawnbrokers in the City are not seen as having negative impacts. The Council raised the idea of explicitly adding pawnbrokers to the list of permitted uses in all zones that allow retail. This would clarify the status of pawnbrokers without changing where they are allowed within the City. J. Add a definition for Pawnbrokers Based on the Planning Commission's recommendation for I no action is required on this proposal. If the Council elected to list pawnbrokers under the permitted uses sections the following definition should be included in the Zoning Code. C:\Nora's_ Files \CODEAMNDU- learingMemo.DOC Page 3 18.06.617 Pawn shop. "Pawn shop" is an establishment engaged in the buying or selling of new or secondhand merchandise and offering loans in exchange for personal property. K. Add Internet Data Centers as allowed or conditional uses in specified Zones The Planning Commission recommended that internet data/telecommunication centers be added to the list of permitted uses in the RC, TUC, C /LI, LI, HI, MIC /L, MIC/H and TVS Zones. • The Council did not want to pursue this amendment, therefore the Planning Commission made no recommendation. Staff will continue to administratively set a parking requirement for each business based on a parking study provided by the applicant. M. Add a definition for Internet Data Centers The Commission recommends that the following definition of "internet data/ telecommunication center" be added to the Zoning Code. Based on comments from the Council Staff recommends the following changes. I 8.06.XXX Internet Data/Telecommunication Center. "Internet data /telecommunication center" means a secure, climate controlled facility with emergency backup power that contains either internet data transmission and switching equipment and /or telecommunication transmission and switching equipment. This equipment may include computer network routers, switches and servers for one or more companies. N. Amend the Subdivision Standard for Turnarounds The Planning Commission recommends that the Fire Department's request to amend the development standards in the Subdivision Code to show only one turnaround requirement for a 92 foot diameter right -of -way with 81 feet of paving be granted. In residential areas developers will be encouraged to install a 20 foot landscape island in the center of the cul -de -sac, provided that adjacent residents or a homeowner's association will maintain the island. The Council discussed the idea of making the island mandatory. This would require a change to the draft ordinance. 0. Remove the fee for Street Vacations from the Zoning Code The Planning Commission recommends that the street vacation fee be deleted from the Zoning Code. Public Works will insert the fee amount in the Street and Alley Vacation Procedure chapter (11.60). C: \Nora's _riles \CODEAMN D \HearingMemo.DOC Page 4 P. Change the Zoning Code to allow structures over the right -of -way The Planning Commission recommends that the following change be made to the Zoning Code: 18.50.0XX Structures over Public R - - A developer who controls parcels on both sides of a public right -of -way may request approval to bridge the street with a structure as a Type 2 special permission decision. Only the width of the building that extends across the street is exempt from setbacks, the remainder of the building must meet them. The developer must also obtain air rights and comply with all other relevant codes including the Washington State Building Code.

SENSITIVEAREAS - Land which contains a sensitive area or its buffer as defined in Title 18, or is subject to the flood zone control ordinance as defined in TMC Chapter 16.52, shall be platted to reflect the standards and requirements of the sensitive areas overlay zone, TMC Chapter 18.45, the planned residential development overlay if required pursuant to TMC Chapter 18.46, and /or the flood zone control ordinance, TMC Chapter 16.52. No lot shall be created that does not contain an adequate building site, given the environmental considerations of the lot and current development standards. A- Zoning Code 8- 01.doc 27 TREES - In addition to meeting the re ements of TMC Chapter 18.54, Tree Regulations, every reasonable effort shall be made to preserve existing trees and vegetation, and integrate them into the subdivision's design. B. Compatibility with existing land use and plans. 1. BUFFER BETWEEN USES - Where single- family residential subdivisions are to be adjacent to multiple - family, commercial or industrial land use districts, and where natural separation does not exist, adequate landscape buffer strips and /or solid fences for screening shall Z be provided. = t= z Ce w 2. CONFORMITY WITH EXISTING PLANS- The location of all streets shall conform to any adopted plans for streets in the City. If a subdivision is located in the area of an officially - 0 designated trail, provisions may be made for reservation of the right -of -way or for easements to ❑ the City for trail purposes. The proposed subdivision shall respond to and complement City ordinances, resolutions, and comprehensive plans. - 3. OTHER CITY REGULATIONS- All subdivisions shall comply with all adopted City w regulations. In the event of a conflict, the more restrictive regulation shall apply. 5 4. ACCESSORY STRUCTURES - If a subdivision, short plat, or boundary line N adjustment in a residential zone would result in an accessory structure remaining alone on a lot, _ the structure must be demolished before preliminary approval, or the owner must provide a bond ? or other financial guarantee acceptable to the Director in the amount of 150% of the cost of Z O demolition and assurance that the accessory structure will be demolished if a residence is not w built on the lot within 12 months of final approval. • ❑ O - ❑ � w w 0 1. EXTENSION - Proposed street systems shall extend existing streets at the same or greater width, unless otherwise approved by the Department of Public Works and authorized by L- 0 the City Council in approval of the plat. Where appropriate, streets shall be extended to the boundaries of the plat to ensure access to neighboring properties. The City's goal is to have an v integrated system of local streets whenever practical. Grading of steep topography may be 0 necessary to achieve this objective. However, in sensitive areas, the layout and construction of Z streets shall follow the standards and procedures of the sensitive areas overlay zone. Dedication of additional right -of -way may be required for a short plat when it is necessary to meet the minimum street width standards or when lack of such dedication would cause or contribute to an unsafe road or intersection. C. Streets. 2. NAMES - All proposed street names or numbers shall be subject to approval by the Department of Community Development. 3. INTERSECTIONS - Any intersection of public streets, whatever the classification, shall be at right angles as nearly as possible and not be offset insofar as practical. 4. STREET LAYOUT - Street layout shall provide for the most advantageous development of the subdivision, adjoining areas, and the entire neighborhood. Evaluation of street layout shall take into consideration potential circulation solutions. While it is important to minimize the impact to the topography from creating an integrated road system, improved site development and circulation solutions shall not be sacrificed to minimize the amount of cut and fill requirements of the proposal. Where sensitive areas are impacted, the standards and procedures for rights -of -way in the sensitive areas overlay zone shall be followed. 5. Private access roads may be authorized if: a. Allowing private access roads in the area being subdivided will not adversely affect future circulation in neighboring parcels of property; and t.::?:7j,`, :: :K� :GYB�i) "..')7l+f:i�∎'ti :waVr4 II`�F'N <nwv.�.....— A- Zoning Code 8- 01.doc re 28 AIM 41111W AIM wwrr r� +vex` povoir Type of Street Right -of -Way Roadway Pavement Principal Arterial 80 -100 feet 48 -84 feet Minor Arterial 60 -80 feet 36 -64 feet Collector Arterial 60 -80 feet 24 -48 feet Access Road 50 -60 feet 28 -36 feet Cul -De -Sac: Roadway 40 feet 26 feet Turnaround (single 80 fcct (dia.) 60 feet (dia.) family) Turnaround (multi family, 92 feet (dia.) 81 feet (dia.) commercial) Alley 20 feet 15 feet Private Access Roads: Residential 20 feet 20 feet Commercial 40 feet 28 feet b.

Design: The design and alignment of all public streets shall conform to the following standards unless otherwise approved by the Department of Public Works: (1) Cul -de -sacs: Cul -de -sacs are not allowed unless there is no reasonable alternative or the cul -de -sac is shown on an officially adopted street plan. When allowed, they shall not exceed a length of 600 feet unless the City Council determines that adequate alternative emergency access will be provided. (2) Street Grades: Street grades shall not exceed 15 %. However, provided there are no vehicular access points, grades may be allowed up to 18 %, for not more than 200 feet when: (a) Exceeding the grades would facilitate a through street and connection with the larger neighborhood; (b) The greater grade would minimize disturbance of sensitive slopes; (c) The Fire Marshal grants approval of the grade transition; and (d) Tangents, horizontal curves, vertical curves, and right -of -way improvements conform to Department of Public Works standards.

Kathryn Stetson, Bill Arthur, Henry Marvin, and Kirstine Whisler Representing City Staff: Steve Lancaster, Minnie Dhaliwal, and Leslie Gordon George Malina. Steve Lancaster discussed different options to address the impacts of group homes. as recommended by the Planning Commission at the previous worksession, instead of limiting the number of people living in a house. The three areas that were discussed regarding regulating impacts of group homes were; limiting size of residential structures, setting standards for maximum impervious surface, and establishing parking regulations for group homes. He also passed out some definitions for terms such as household and dwelling unit. Steve discussed the different options for regulating the size of residential structures: establish 5,000 square feet as the maximum size, establish a sliding scale based on lot size, or require design review for structures over a certain size. Bob Johns talked about limiting the maximum size of residential structures, he also mentioned how King County limits the maximum size of a house to 10,000 square feet. Any structure larger than 10,000 square feet is subject to a Public Hearing. However, they do not have any code criteria to regulate such structures. David Livermore discussed impervious surface and establishing a sliding scale based on the size of the lot. He suggested that the standard impervious surface for a 6,500 square foot lot would be fifty percent. and the percentage could be decreased by one -half percent for each additional 1,000 square foot lot area. Bob Johns stated drainage regulations might also limit the amount of impervious surface. There was discussion on limiting the amount of time cars are parked on city streets. However, it was decided that it could be an enforcement problem. The decision was. to establish minimum parking requirements for `roup homes. For example: require two parking spaces for three bedrooms plus one additional space for every bedroom in excess of three. Steve stated staff will comeback with more specific regulations related to parking, impervious surface, and size of house.

' Planning Commission Page 2 Nick Olivas addressed questions for the Commission regarding the fire department's position on the turn- around cul -de -sac issue. Nick also pointed out the following things. The cul -de -sac is not large enough for the largest piece of equipment, the last three trucks purchased by the fire department had a turning radius reduction. Also due to the amount of equipment the fire department has to carry, it would not be feasible to physically reduce the size of the trucks. Vern Meryhew requested that Nick provide the Commission with statistics regarding how often the fire department receives a second call while on a call. He also requested statistics on insurance impacts. Vern requested Nick provide the Commission with the requested info, by the July 26 worksession. George Malina also requested an inventory of cul -de -sacs within the City. Ralph Hagler, Sabey Corporation, had questions on definitions 6, 10 and 11. Jack Pace gave explanation of changes to definitions 6, 10 and 11.

CANTU, CMC CITY CLERK DATE OF PUBLICATION: SEATTLE TIMES, WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 29, 2001 BACKGROUND City 0/Tukwila Steven M. Mullet, Mayor Department of Community Development Steve Lancaster, Director MEMORANDUM TO: Mayor Mullet City Council Committee of the Whole FROM: Steve Lancaster, DCD Director RE: Planning Commission Recommendation on Proposed Zoning Code Amendments DATE: August 22, 2001 At the beginning of the year Staff grouped 16 proposed amendments to the Zoning Code together on topics ranging from minor housekeeping or clarification to policy decisions about allowed uses and development standards. Staff's suggested changes along with other options were presented to the Community Affairs and Parks Committee for consideration on February 27 2001 and April 10, 2001. The Committee accepted Staff's recommendation on all items except L Add a parking standard for intemet data centers. Their recommendation to the COW on L was to continue to set case by case parking requirements based on a parking study provided by the developer and reviewed by the Public Works Department as is our current practice. The package was then presented to the City Council Committee of the Whole on April 23, 2001. They concurred with the CAP's recommendations on all items except K. Add intemet data centers as allowed or conditional uses in specified zones. The COW chose the option that would allow intemet data centers in RC and TUC in addition to the C/LI, LI, HI, MIC/L, MIC/H and TVS Zones that Staff had proposed and CAP had endorsed. The Planning Commission held a worksession on May 24 to discuss the code amendments and a public hearing on June 28 to further discuss the code amendments and take public testimony. They were able to make a recommendation on 13 of the amendments but asked for additional information about item N, the subdivision standard for cul -de -sacs. The Fire Chief attended the worksession on July 26 to answer their questions and the Commission decided to go with Staff's recommendation to eliminate the smaller standard. The formula for Item A, changing from a floor area ratio to lot coverage standard in LDR, was developed in conjunction with the ordinance regulating group homes. h ?nn .Cnirthrontor Rnrrlaoarrl .C,iito .#1171 • TnL,A /lla Wachinatnn anima Page 1 Ahnnn• Mt;_421_2A • Pow. 911A_A21.2AAiC Size of lot (square feet) Max.

The Staff Report to the Planning Commission with background material on the amendments is Attachment B. PROPOSED CHANGES Following are the Planning Commission's recommendations: A. Change the Floor Area Ratio limitation in LDR to a lot coverage standard The formula for the allowed percentage of the lot that may be covered by structures was developed as part of the group homes code amendments. The change would require striking the floor area ratio from the LDR development regulations, adding a definition of building footprint and adding a section to the LDR Chapter that lists the formula for maximum building footprint. Attachment C is a diagram showing the difference between floor area ratio and lot coverage. In the LDR zone limiting the footprint of residential structures will control the bulk and size of such structures and ensure the compatibility with existing homes. This should be based on a sliding scale relative to the size of the lot so that small lots are not penalized and large lots cannot be used for structures that are so large that they are of non - residential scale. A residential structure could have two or three times as much square footage as "footprint" (two or three story houses). The following table illustrates the maximum footprint calculations based on the formula in the ordinance. C: \Nora's Files \CODEAMND \PCtoCOW.DOC Page 2 1`� B. Eliminate increased setbacks for the second story of structures in LDR L ' ��'o'' A GtCIS The Planning Commission recommends a 20 foot setback for the front and 10 foot setback for ro r . crv n� the second front in LDR, with no increase for the second story. Porches would still be allowed to be setback 15 feet from the front property line. They were not in favor of any type of design controls on single family houses. C. Prohibit the use of cargo containers as storage sheds in residential zones The Planning Commission recommends banning cargo containers from all non - industrial zones (LDR, MDR, HDR, MUO, 0, RCC, NCC, RC, RCM, TUC). They were not in favor of any type of exemption for schQ V v? Gam.! nU " AV S C.VA at.) D. Add additional detail to landscape plan requirements The Planning Commission recommends that quantity and typical planting details be added to the landscape plan requirements at TMC 18.52.050. E. Revise the Zoning Code definition of building height to match the Washington State Building Code The Planning Commission recommends that the definition of building height at TMC 18.06.100 be changed to match the Washington State Building Code. F. Revise the Zoning Code definition of story to match the Washington State Building Code The Planning Commission recommends that the definition of story at TMC 18.06.790 be changed to match the Washington State Building Code. - -6- G. Delete High Tech as a Use Category The Planning Commission recommends that the high tech category be deleted from MUO, 0, NCC, RC, RCM, TUC, C/LI, LI, HI, MIC/H and TVS Zones because the overly broad nature of high tech could result in the establishment of incompatible uses. H. Correct Figure 18 -4 Location and Measurement of Yards on Lots The Planning Commission recommends that the diagram in the Zoning Code that displays how yards are determined be corrected to accurately show the "second front" condition for corner lots. I. Add Pawnbrokers as allowed or conditional uses in specified Zones The Planning Commission recommends that this proposed change not be pursued. The majority thought that pawnbrokers should be treated like any other retail use. The existing pawnbrokers in the City are not seen as having negative impacts. 6 -0/1 s .nn C: \Nora's Files \CODEAMND\PCtoCOW.DOC Page 3 z _� � ce JU 00 0 N � LL w u CD a _ zF- z° U • D O N O 1— Ww 1 7 .z w U= o � z J.

Add Internet Data Centers as allowed or conditional uses in specified Zones The Planning Commission recommended that internet data/telecommunication centers be added to the list of permitted uses in the RC, TUC, C/LI, LI, HI, MIC/L, MIC/H and TVS Zones. The Council did not want to pursue this amendment, therefore the Planning Commission made no recommendation. Staff will continue to administratively set a parking requirement for each business based on a parking study provided by the applicant. M. Add a definition for Internet Data Centers The Commission recommends that the following definition of "internet data/ telecommunication center" be added to the Zoning Code. 1 8.06.XXX Internet Data/Telecommunication Center. "Internet data /telecommunication center" means a secure, climate controlled facility with emergency backup power that contains either Internet data and/or telecommunication transmission and switching equipment, computer network routers, switches and servers for one or more companies. N. Amend the Subdivision Standard for Turnarounds The Planning Commission recommends that the Fire Department's request to amend the development standards in the Subdivision Code to show only one turnaround requirement for a 92 foot diameter right-of-way with 81 feet of paving be granted. In residential areas developers will be encouraged to install a 20 foot landscape island in the center of the cul -de -sac, provided that adjacent residents or a homeowner's association will maintain the island. 0. Remove the fee for Street Vacations from the Zoning Code The Planning Commission recommends that the street vacation fee be deleted from the Zoning Code. Public Works will insert the fee amount in the Street and Alley Vacation Procedure chapter (11.60). P. Change the Zoning Code to allow structures over the right -of -way The Planning Commission recommends that the following change be made to the Zoning Code: 18.50.0XX Structures over Public R -O -W C: \Nora's Files \CODEAMND\PCtoCOW.DOC Page 4 A developer who controls parcels on both sides of a public right -of -way may request approval to bridge the street with a structure as a Type 2 special permission decision. Only the width of the building that extends across the street is exempt from setbacks, the remainder of the building must meet them. The developer must also obtain air rights and comply with all other relevant codes including the Washington State Building Code. �= U kry„, , `)- GJ�G �C��Od i� L 1� L /1, f//� �r k-�e -rSe REQUESTED ACTION Review the Planning Commission's recommendations and set a public hearing on the Code Amendments for September 4th. �.._:;.. ^:.

TREES - In addition to meeting the requirements of TMC Chapter 18.54, Tree Regulations, every reasonable effort shall be made to preserve existing trees and vegetation, and integrate them into the subdivision's design. B. Compatibility with existing land use and plans. 1. BUFFER BETWEEN USES - Where single - family residential subdivisions are to be adjacent to multiple - family, commercial or industrial land use districts, and where natural separation does not exist, adequate landscape buffer strips and/or solid fences for screening shall be provided. 2. CONFORMITY WITH EXISTING PLANS- The location of all streets shall conform to any adopted plans for streets in the City. If a subdivision is located in the area of an officially designated trail, provisions may be made for reservation of the right -of -way or for easements to the City for trail purposes. The proposed subdivision shall respond to and complement City ordinances, resolutions, and comprehensive plans. 3. OTHER CITY REGULATIONS- All subdivisions shall comply with all adopted City regulations. In the event of a conflict, the more restrictive regulation shall apply. 4. ACCESSORY STRUCTURES - If a subdivision, short plat, or boundary line adjustment in a residential zone would result in an accessory structure remaining alone on a lot, the structure must be demolished before preliminary approval, or the owner must provide a bond or other financial guarantee acceptable to the Director in the amount of 150% of the cost of demolition and assurance that the accessory structure will be demolished if a residence is not built on the lot within 12 months of final approval. C. Streets. 1. EXTENSION- Proposed street systems shall extend existing streets at the same or greater width, unless otherwise approved by the Department of Public Works and authorized by the City Council in approval of the plat. Where appropriate, streets shall be extended to the boundaries of the plat to ensure access to neighboring properties. The City's goal is to have an integrated system of local streets whenever practical. Grading of steep topography may be necessary to achieve this objective. However, in sensitive areas, the layout and construction of streets shall follow the standards and procedures of the sensitive areas overlay zone. Dedication of additional right -of -way may be required for a short plat when it is necessary to meet the minimum street width standards or when lack of such dedication would cause or contribute to an unsafe road or intersection. 2. NAMES - All proposed street names or numbers shall be subject to approval by the Department of Community Development. 3. INTERSECTIONS - Any intersection of public streets, whatever the classification, shall be at right angles as nearly as possible and not be offset insofar as practical. 4. STREET LAYOUT - Street layout shall provide for the most advantageous development of the subdivision, adjoining areas, and the entire neighborhood. Evaluation of street layout shall take into consideration potential circulation solutions. While it is important to minimize the impact to the topography from creating an integrated road system, improved site development and circulation solutions shall not be sacrificed to minimize the amount of cut and fill requirements of the proposal. Where sensitive areas are impacted, the standards and procedures for rights -of -way in the sensitive areas overlay zone shall be followed. 5. Private access roads may be authorized if: a. Allowing private access roads in the area being subdivided will not adversely affect future circulation in neighboring parcels of property; and A- Zoning Code 8- 01.doc 28 �`� Type of Street Right -of -Way Roadway Pavement Principal Arterial 80 -100 feet 48 -84 feet Minor Arterial 60-80 feet 36 -64 feet Collector Arterial 60-80 feet 24 -48 feet Access Road 50 -60 feet 28 -36 feet Cul -De -Sac: Roadway 40 feet 26 feet - 80 feet (dia.) 60 feet (dia.) - Turnaround m u' ri commercial) 92 feet (dia.) 81 feet (dia.)

Adequate and reasonable provisions are made for the future maintenance and repair of the proposed private access roads; and c. The proposed private access roads can accommodate potential full (future) development on the lots created; and d. For residential subdivisions, the proposed private access roads do not serve more than four lots nor are more than 200 feet in length. Those access roads 150 feet or greater in length shall have a turnaround built to Fire Department standards. e. For commercial and industrial subdivisions, when private access roads are authorized, there shall be a minimum easement width of 40 feet. With the exception of minimum easement widths, private access roads shall be designed and constructed in accordance with the Department of Public Works standards, and zoning setbacks shall be required as though the easement were a public right -of -way. 6. PUBLIC ROADS - a. Right -of -way and paving widths for public roads shall be based as shown in the following table. The minimum paving and right -of -way width shall be used unless the City Engineer demonstrates a wider width is needed due to site circumstances, including but not limited to topography, traffic volume, street patterns, on- street parking, lot patterns, land use and bike and transit facilities, that justify an increase in width. b. Design: The design and alignment of all public streets shall conform to the following standards unless otherwise approved by the Department of Public Works: (1) Cul -de -sacs: Cul-de -sacs are not allowed unless there is no reasonable alternative or the cul -de -sac is shown on an officially adopted street plan. When allowed, they shall not exceed a length of 600 feet unless the City Council determines that adequate alternative emergency access will be provided. (2) Street Grades: Street grades shall not exceed 15 %. However, provided there are no vehicular access points, grades may be allowed up to 18 %, for not more than 200 feet when: (a) Exceeding the grades would facilitate a through street and connection with the larger neighborhood; (b) The greater grade would minimize disturbance of sensitive slopes; (c) The Fire Marshal grants approval of the grade transition; and (d) Tangents, horizontal curves, vertical curves, and right -of -way improvements conform to Department of Public Works standards. 29 A- Zoning Code 8- 01.doc 1 • • • • c. Full width improvement: (1) When interior to a subdivision or a short plat of five or more lots, all publicly owned streets shall be designed and installed to full width improvement as provided below: (a) Shall be graded as necessary to conform to Department of Public Works standards.

(2) If the future grade or alignment of the adjacent public street is unknown and it is not feasible to establish the grade in a reasonable period or the immediate improvement of the street would result in a short, isolated segment of improved street and similar street improvements in the vicinity are unlikely to occur within six years, the City may approve a A- Zoning Code 8- 01.doc d.

You asked Assistant Chief Olivas to research how often fire apparatus was dispatched to a call immediately after going in service from a previous call (back to back calls). The following numbers are from the months of January, February and March of 2001. There was also a question about whether our current dual standard had any negative effect on fire insurance rates. According to Assistant Chief Olivas the standard has no direct impact on rates. Attached is a map of cul -de -sacs throughout Tukwila. There are 34 total, with 8 in commercial areas and the rest in residential areas. Here is information about turnaround standards in neighboring jurisdictions: Burien, King County, SeaTac Renton Kent Moines Tukwila * 20' landscape island is required if paving exceeds 80' in diameter Hammerheads are not allowed unless as an interim step toward a planned through street 6300 Southcenter Boulevard, Suite #100 • Tukwila, Washington 98188 • Phone: aS.•iti:..v i`,:. �; = ;:ani�:`.�5. �ilici � ,�„_ �`. tn'.�k�sic�,�xt«''S'„3` •93'vdt'yjt.' n4`•• .• �st8%�.'::ic.°R:sA' f3'3�': Des Steven M.

CDBG Projects for 2002 Based on requests from city departments and from LATCH (Lutheran Alliance to Create Housing), Evie put draft allocations for 2002 into the same programs the City has traditionally supported with CDBG funds. Some money that was not used this year, mostly in utility connections, minor home repair, first time homebuyer, and Cascade Park (from 2000) will be rolled over into recaptured money that is expected. Evie had KC Home Repair, Minor Home Repair, First Time Homebuyer, Utility Connections, LATCH, Duwamish neighborhood improvements, and senior program support all getting money in 2002. The committee agreed. Evie had suggested the programs that money could be added to if more money were available, and the programs that could be cut if there is less money than expected available. Major home repair funds are often needed, but citizens have not asked for the minor home repair funds as often. The new home help program has also not attracted a lot of attention. Recommend funding scheme to COW; schedule Public Hearing. 2. Proposed Zoning Code Amendments This process of reviewing 16 proposed amendments to the city's zoning code was begun early in the year. After going to Community Affairs and then COW, the amendments were sent to the Planning Commission, which spent a good deal of time and effort reviewing them. The Committee and Council had questioned the parking standard for internet data centers, and had added allowing internet data centers in the urban centers and RC zones. The Planning Commission had changed the floor area ration limitation by moving it into the group home code amendments. The Committee had many questions about several of the amendments. Not having background on some of the more controversial amendments, they asked for more information on just a few of the issues. They questioned allowing pawnbrokers anywhere in the City, but did not recommend a change. They also wanted to look closely at allowing internet data centers in the RC and TUC zones. Pam asked if noise was a problem with internet date centers, and Steve L said that it could be, so having it near residences could be problematical. The Fire Department supported enlarging the turnarounds on cul d'sacs, and the committee okayed that. Allowing structures over streets was a point for discussion, since it could be fine or it could be controversial depending on the project. Recommend to COW. 3. Tukwila Urban Center Subarea Plan Lynn was enthusiastic about her work on this project. The larger issue is Council adoption of a subarea plan for the urban center, and implementing ordinances including design standards and concurrency standards. The project has been broken into smaller steps, including market analysis, workshops, EIS work, and public hearings. Consultants will do a market analysis of both the urban center and the Longacres site, which has been rolled into this study. Lynn said the urban center plan would implement the city's comp plan, as well as help meet county and state requirements. She said it was a goal to look at intensifying or modifying uses in the urban center, as well as keeping those parts of it that are already strong. After a market analysis, land use, transportation, and economic development databases will be updated. Consultants will be hired for both those tasks. Alternatives will then be drawn up for the TUC, and workshops will be held to refine those alternatives. One thing staff is planning is to do a supplemental EIS (SEIS) on the final alternative of uses. This should help developers who will be able to see what kinds of mitigation would be required, reduce their time requirements for development, and would allow the city to see the impacts of the uses. By the end of this year, staff hopes to have an updated database, know the issues and opportunities, have a draft of subarea plan alternatives to work on, and begin work on the EIS. Funding for this project is hopefully coming from the Senate funds identified in the U.S. Senate budget ($1.5 million), though that is not passed yet and alternative funding may be needed.

We really appreciate your hearing us out as well as your further clarification of the reasons for the proposed code changes involving "proper treatment of group homes." We understand and sympathize with the cause that the City of Tukwila is establishing parameters for group homes. However, we would like to request that the issue concerning group homes be proposed and resolved separately with the City's Planning Commission from the issue concerning the footprint requirements of residential structures. PERMIT CENTER We understand that there is a proposal and the Commission has voiced its support for a new "building footprint" standard of 35% for lots of 6.500 or fewer square feet thereby replacing the current 50% FAR. We would like to request that this proposal to replace the current FAR standard be presented for approval with the City Council as soon as possible. CITY OF�TUKWILA As we have explained to you, for the last three years, our company, has built ten homes located at 122nd, 43rd, 48th, and 116th South in Tukwila without any mention of any LDR or 50% coverage requirements from the city. We are building three more homes at 12217, 12219, and 12225 -43rd Avenue South with the same approved house designs and lot sizes as we built two years ago. The permits that were approved for these (13) thirteen homes could not currently be utilized for additional homes due to the current 50% FAR that was previously overlooked. This error has seriously impacted our business. z � z w O 0 0 w= U) w w u_ Q = • a I -w z I- o z I- w w U 0 O - O I- ww L: O .z w U= o � z Y Page 2 As time goes by, it is causing our company to lose thousands of dollars in z revenue and investments each month.

Staff's suggested changes along with other options were presented to the Community Affairs and Parks Committee for consideration on February 27 2001 and April 10, 2001. Steven M. Mullet, Mayor The Committee accepted Staff's recommendation on all items except L Add a parking standard for internet data centers. Their recommendation to the COW on L was to continue to set case by case parking requirements based on a parking study provided by the developer and reviewed by the Public Works Department as is our current practice. The package was then presented to the City Council Committee of the Whole on April 23, 2001. They concurred with the CAP's recommendations on all items except K. Add internet data centers as allowed or conditional uses in specified zones. The COW chose the option that would allow internet data centers in RC and TUC in addition to the C /LI, LI, HI, MIC/L, MIC /H and TVS Zones that Staff had proposed and CAP had endorsed. The Planning Commission held a worksession on May 24 to discuss the code amendments and a public hearing on June 28 to further discuss the code amendments and take public testimony. They were able to make a recommendation on 13 of the amendments but asked for additional information about item N, the subdivision standard for cul -de -sacs. The Fire Chief attended the worksession on July 26 to answer their questions and the Commission decided to go with Staff's recommendation to eliminate the smaller standard. The formula for Item A, changing from a floor area ratio to lot coverage standard in LDR, was developed in conjunction with the ordinance regulating group homes.

The Staff Report to the Planning Commission with background material on the amendments is Attachment B. PROPOSED CHANGES Following are the Planning Commission's recommendations: A. Change the Floor Area Ratio limitation in LDR to a lot coverage standard The formula for the allowed percentage of the lot that may be covered by structures was developed as part of the group homes code amendments. The change would require striking the floor area ratio from the LDR development regulations, adding a definition of building footprint and adding a section to the LDR Chapter that lists the formula for maximum building footprint. Attachment C is a diagram showing the difference between floor area ratio and lot coverage. In the LDR zone limiting the footprint of residential structures will control the bulk and size of such structures and ensure the compatibility with existing homes. This should be based on a sliding scale relative to the size of the lot so that small lots are not penalized and large lots cannot be used for structures that are so large that they are of non - residential scale. A residential structure could have two or three times as much square footage as "footprint" (two or three story houses). The following table illustrates the maximum footprint calculations based on the formula in the ordinance. C: \Nora's_Fi les \CODEAMND \PCtoCOW.DOC Page 2 • B. Eliminate increased setbacks for the second story of structures in LDR The Planning Commission recommends a 20 foot setback for the front and 10 foot setback for the second front in LDR, with no increase for the second story. Porches would still be allowed to be setback 15 feet from the front property line. They were not in favor of any type of design controls on single family houses. C. Prohibit the use of cargo containers as storage sheds in residential zones The Planning Commission recommends banning cargo containers from all non - industrial zones (LDR, MDR, HDR, MUO, 0, RCC, NCC, RC, RCM, TUC). They were not in favor of any type of exemption for schools. D. Add additional detail to landscape plan requirements The Planning Commission recommends that quantity and typical planting details be added to the landscape plan requirements at TMC 18.52.050. E. Revise the Zoning Code definition of building height to match the Washington State Building Code The Planning Commission recommends that the definition of building height at TMC 18.06.100 be changed to match the Washington State Building Code. F. Revise the Zoning Code definition of story to match the Washington State Building Code The Planning Commission recommends that the definition of story at TMC 18.06.790 be changed to match the Washington State Building Code. G. Delete High Tech as a Use Category The Planning Commission recommends that the high tech category be deleted from MUO, 0, NCC, RC, RCM, TUC, C/LI, LI, HI, MIC/H and TVS Zones because the overly broad nature of high tech could result in the establishment of incompatible uses. H. Correct Figure 18 -4 Location and Measurement of Yards on Lots The Planning Commission recommends that the diagram in the Zoning Code that displays how yards are determined be corrected to accurately show the "second front" condition for corner lots. I. Add Pawnbrokers as allowed or conditional uses in specified Zones The Planning Commission recommends that this proposed change not be pursued. The majority thought that pawnbrokers should be treated like any other retail use. The existing pawnbrokers in the City are not seen as having negative impacts. C: \Nora's tiles \CODEAMNDWCtoCOW.DOC Page 3 J. Add a definition for Pawnbrokers Based on the recommendation for I no action is required on this proposal. K. Add Internet Data Centers as allowed or conditional uses in specified Zones The Planning Commission recommended that internet data/telecommunication centers be added to the list of permitted uses in the RC, TUC, C/LI, LI, HI, MIC /L, MIC/H and TVS Zones. The Council did not want to pursue this amendment, therefore the Planning Commission made no recommendation. Staff will continue to administratively set a parking requirement for each business based on a parking study provided by the applicant. M. Add a definition for Internet Data Centers The Commission recommends that the following definition of "internet data/ telecommunication center" be added to the Zoning Code. 18.06.XXX Internet Data/Telecommunication Center. "Internet data /telecommunication center" means a secure, climate controlled facility with emergency backup power that contains either internet data and /or telecommunication transmission and switching equipment, computer network routers, switches and servers for one or more companies. N. Amend the Subdivision Standard for Turnarounds The Planning Commission recommends that the Fire Department's request to amend the development standards in the Subdivision Code to show only one turnaround requirement for a 92 foot diameter right -of -way with 81 feet of paving be granted. In residential areas developers will be encouraged to install a 20 foot landscape island in the center of the cul -de -sac, provided that adjacent residents or a homeowner's association will maintain the island. 0. Remove the fee for Street Vacations from the Zoning Code The Planning Commission recommends that the street vacation fee be deleted from the Zoning Code. Public Works will insert the fee amount in the Street and Alley Vacation Procedure chapter (11.60). P. Change the Zoning Code to allow structures over the right -of -way The Planning Commission recommends that the following change be made to the Zoning Code: 18.50.0XX Structures over Public R -O -W C: \Nora's Files \CODEAMND \PCtoCOW.DOC Page 4 A developer who controls parcels on both sides of a public right -of -way may request approval to bridge the street with a structure as a Type 2 special permission decision. Only the width of the building that extends across the street is exempt from setbacks, the remainder of the building must meet them. The developer must also obtain air rights and comply with all other relevant codes including the Washington State Building Code.

A. Environmental considerations. 1. SENSITIVE AREAS - Land which contains a sensitive area or its buffer as defined in Title 18, or is subject to the flood zone control ordinance as defined in TMC Chapter 16.52, shall be platted to reflect the standards and requirements of the sensitive areas overlay zone, TMC Chapter 18.45, the planned residential development overlay if required pursuant to TMC Chapter 18.46, and /or the flood zone control ordinance, TMC Chapter 16.52. No lot shall be created that does not contain an adequate building site, given the environmental considerations of the lot and current development standards. A- Zoning Code 8- 01.doc 27 2. TREES - In addition to meeting the requirements of TMC Chapter 18.54, Tree Regulations, every reasonable effort shall be made to preserve existing trees and vegetation, and integrate them into the subdivision's design. B. Compatibility with existing land use and plans. 1. BUFFER BETWEEN USES Where single - family residential subdivisions are to be adjacent to multiple - famil -y, commercial or industrial land use districts, and where natural separation does not exist, adequate landscape buffer strips and /or solid fences for screening shall be provided. 2. CONFORMITY WITH EXISTING PLANS The location of all streets shall conform to any adopted plans for streets in the City. If a subdivision is located in the area of an officially designated trail, provisions may be made for reservation of the right -of -way or for easements to the City for trail purposes. The proposed subdivision shall respond to and complement City ordinances, resolutions, and comprehensive plans. 3. OTHER CITY REGULATIONS All subdivisions shall comply with all adopted City regulations. In the event of a conflict, the more restrictive regulation shall apply. 4. ACCESSORY STRUCTURES - If a subdivision, short plat, or boundary line adjustment in a residential zone would result in an accessory structure remaining alone on a lot, the structure must be demolished before preliminary approval, or the owner must provide a bond or other financial guarantee acceptable to the Director in the amount of 150% of the cost of demolition and assurance that the accessory structure will be demolished if a residence is not built on the lot within 12 months of final approval. C. Streets. 1. EXTENSION - Proposed street systems shall extend existing streets at the same or greater width, unless otherwise approved by the Department of Public Works and authorized by the City Council in approval of the plat. Where appropriate, streets shall be extended to the boundaries of the plat to ensure access to neighboring properties. The City's goal is to have an integrated system of local streets whenever practical. Grading of steep topography may be necessary to achieve this objective. However, in sensitive areas, the layout and construction of streets shall follow the standards and procedures of the sensitive areas overlay zone. Dedication of additional right -of -way may be required for a short plat when it is necessary to meet the minimum street width standards or when lack of such dedication would cause or contribute to an unsafe road or intersection. 2. NAMES - All proposed street names or numbers shall be subject to approval by the Department of Community Development. 3. INTERSECTIONS - Any intersection of public streets, whatever the classification, shall be at right angles as nearly as possible and not be offset insofar as practical. 4. STREET LAYOUT - Street layout shall provide for the most advantageous development of the subdivision, adjoining areas, and the entire neighborhood. Evaluation of street layout shall take into consideration potential circulation solutions. While it is important to minimize the impact to the topography from creating an integrated road system, improved site development and circulation solutions shall not be sacrificed to minimize the amount of cut and fill requirements of the proposal. Where sensitive areas are impacted, the standards and procedures for rights -of -way in the sensitive areas overlay zone shall be followed. 5. Private access roads may be authorized if: a. Allowing private access roads in the area being subdivided will not adversely affect future circulation in neighboring parcels of property; and A- Zoning Code 8- 01.doc 28 Type of Street Right -of -Way Roadway Pavement Principal Arterial 80 -100 feet 48 -84 feet Minor Arterial 60 -80 feet 36 -64 feet Collector Arterial 60 -80 feet 24 -48 feet Access Road 50 -60 feet 28 -36 feet Cul -De -Sac: Roadway 40 feet 26 feet Turnaround (single family) 80 feet (dia.) 60 f Turnaround (multi family, 92 feet (dia.) 81 feet (dia.) commcrcisl) Alley 20 feet 15 feet Private Access Roads: Residential 20 feet 20 feet Commercial 40 feet 28 feet b. Adequate and reasonable provisions are made for the future maintenance and repair of the proposed private access roads; and c. The proposed private access roads can accommodate potential full (future) development on the lots created; and d. For residential subdivisions, the proposed private access roads do not serve more than four lots nor are more than 200 feet in length. Those access roads 150 feet or greater in length shall have a turnaround built to Fire Department standards. e. For commercial and industrial subdivisions, when private access roads are authorized, there shall be a minimum easement width of 40 feet. With the exception of minimum easement widths, private access roads shall be designed and constructed in accordance with the Department of Public Works standards, and zoning setbacks shall be required as though the easement were a public right -of -way. 6. PUBLICROADS- a. Right -of -way and paving widths for public roads shall be based as shown in the following table. The minimum paving and right -of -way width shall be used unless the City Engineer demonstrates a wider width is needed due to site circumstances, including but not limited to topography, traffic volume, street patterns, on- street parking, lot patterns, land use and bike and transit facilities, that justify an increase in width. b. Design: The design and alignment of all public streets shall conform to the following standards unless otherwise approved by the Department of Public Works: (1) Cul -de -sacs: Cul -de -sacs are not allowed unless there is no reasonable alternative or the cul -de -sac is shown on an officially adopted street plan. When allowed, they shall not exceed a length of 600 feet unless the City Council determines that adequate alternative emergency access will be provided. (2) Street Grades: Street grades shall not exceed 15 %. However, provided there are no vehicular access points, grades may be allowed up to 18 %, for not more than 200 feet when: (a) Exceeding the grades would facilitate a through street and connection with the larger neighborhood; (b) The greater grade would minimize disturbance of sensitive slopes; (c) The Fire Marshal grants approval of the grade transition; and (d) Tangents, horizontal curves, vertical curves, and right -of -way improvements conform to Department of Public Works standards. A- Zoning Code 8- 01.doc 29 (1) When interior to a subdivision or a short plat of five or more lots, all publicly owned streets shall be designed and installed to full width improvement as provided below: Works standards.

(1) Streets abutting the perimeter of a subdivision or short plat of five or more lots shall provide the full improvements on the half of the street adjacent to the site, provided additional paving may be required to ensure safe and efficient roads exist to serve the subdivision; provided further that there are no physical obstructions to completing the other half of the roadway; and that there is a minimum of 20 feet of paving. (2) If the future grade or alignment of the adjacent public street is unknown and it is not feasible to establish the grade in a reasonable period or the immediate improvement of the street would result in a short, isolated segment of improved street and similar street improvements in the vicinity are unlikely to occur within six years, the City may approve a A- Zoning Code 8- 01.doc d. Half width improvement: 30 3 delay of improvements. The owner(s) must agree to enter into a binding L.I.D. no- protest agreement to further improve the street to full public street standards in the future, however adjacent streets must still be improved to the minimum level necessary, in the judgment of the City Engineer, to safely accommodate traffic generated by the proposed subdivision or short plat. (3) Streets abutting the perimeter of a short plat of four or fewer lots shall provide L.I.D. no- protest agreements for construction of frontal improvements on the half of the street adjacent to the site, provided that there is a minimum of 20 feet of paving.

Where circumstances warrant for the purpose of implementing the Comprehensive Plan, the Planning Commission may require one or more public pathways of not less than six feet nor more than 15 feet in width, either by dedication or easement, to extend entirely across the width of the block to connect public rights -of -way. 2. WIDTH - Blocks shall be wide enough to allow two tiers of lots, except where abutting a major street or prevented by topographical conditions or size of the property, in which case the City Council may approve a single tier. 3. PEDESTRIAN CONSIDERATIONS - Blocks, roads and pedestrian improvements shall be designed to provide a safe and convenient pedestrian network. F. Lots. 1. ARRANGEMENT - Insofar as practical, side lot lines shall be at right angles to street lines or radial to curved street lines.

Staff's suggested changes along with other options were presented to the Community Affairs and Parks Committee for consideration on February 27` 2001 and April 10, 2001. Steven M. Mullet, Mayor The Committee accepted Staff's recommendation on all items except L Add a parking standard for internet data centers. Their recommendation to the COW on L was to continue to set case by case parking requirements based on a parking study provided by the developer and reviewed by the Public Works Department as is our current practice. The package was then presented to the City Council Committee of the Whole on April 23, 2001. They concurred with the CAP's recommendations on all items except K. Add internet data centers as allowed or conditional uses in specified zones. The COW chose the option that would allow internet data centers in RC and TUC in addition to the C /LI, LI, HI, MIC/L, MIC /H and TVS Zones that Staff had proposed and CAP had endorsed. The Planning Commission held a worksession on May 24 to discuss the code amendments and a public hearing on June 28 to further discuss the code amendments and take public testimony. They were able to make a recommendation on 13 of the amendments but asked for additional information about item N, the subdivision standard for cul -de -sacs. The Fire Chief attended the worksession on July 26 to answer their questions and the Commission decided to go with Staff's recommendation to eliminate the smaller standard. Item A, changing from a floor area ratio to lot coverage standard in LDR, was moved into the ordinance regulating group homes. Page 1 6300 Southcenter Boulevard, Suite #100 • Tukwila, Washington 98188 • Phone: 206 -431 -3670 • Fax: 206- 431 -3665 PROPOSED CHANGES Following are the Planning Commission's recommendations to the City Council on the 14 remaining code amendments. This change has been incorporated into the group homes code amendments. B. Eliminate increased setbacks for the second story of structures in LDR The Planning Commission recommends a 20 foot setback for the front and 10 foot setback for the second front in LDR, with no increase for the second story. Porches would still be allowed to be setback 15 feet from the front property line. They were not in favor of any type of design controls on single family houses. C. Prohibit the use of cargo containers as storage sheds in residential zones The Planning Commission recommends banning cargo containers from all non - industrial zones (LDR, MDR, HDR, MUO, 0, RCC, NCC, RC, RCM, TUC).

Add additional detail to landscape plan requirements The Planning Commission recommends that quantity and typical planting details be added to the landscape plan requirements at TMC 18.52.050. E. Revise the Zoning Code definition of building height to match the Washington State Building Code The Planning Commission recommends that the definition of building height at TMC 18.06.100 be changed to match the Washington State Building Code. F. Revise the Zoning Code definition of story to match the Washington State Building Code The Planning Commission recommends that the definition of story at TMC 18.06.790 be changed to match the Washington State Building Code. G. Delete High Tech as a Use Category The Planning Commission recommends that the high tech category be deleted from MUO, 0, NCC, RC, RCM, TUC, C/LI, LI, HI, MIC/H and TVS Zones because the overly broad nature of high tech could result in the establishment of incompatible uses. C:\Nora's Files \CODEAMND \PCtoCAP.DOC Page 2 H. Correct Figure 18 -4 Location and Measurement of Yards on Lots The Planning Commission recommends that the diagram in the Zoning Code that displays how yards are determined be corrected to accurately show the "second front" condition for corner lots. I. Add Pawnbrokers as allowed or conditional uses in specified Zones The Planning Commission recommends that this proposed change not be pursued. The majority thought that pawnbrokers should be treated like any other retail use. The existing pawnbrokers in the City are not seen as having negative impacts. J. Add a definition for Pawnbrokers Based on the recommendation for I no action is required on this proposal. K. Add Internet Data Centers as allowed or conditional uses in specified Zones The Planning Commission recom ended that internet data/telecommunication centers be added to the list of permitted uses in ti a RTUC, C/LI, LI, HI, MIC/L, MIC/H and TVS Zones. rn Lie- L.A.dd a parking standard for Internet Data Centers The Council did not want to pursue this amendment, therefore the Planning Commission made no recommendation. Staff will continue to administratively set a parking requirement for each business based on a parking study provided by the applicant. M. Add a definition for Internet Data Centers The Commission recommends that the following definition of " internet data/ telecommunication center" be added to the Zoning Code. I8.06.XXX Internet Data/Telecommunication Center. "Internet data /telecommunication center" means a secure, climate controlled facility with emergency backup power that contains either internet data and /or telecommunication transmission and switching equipment, computer network routers, switches and servers for one or more companies. N. Amend the Subdivision Standard for Turnarounds The Planning Commission recommends that the Fire Department's request to amend the development standards in the Subdivision Code to show only one turnaround requirement for a 92 foot diameter right -of -way with 81 feet of paving be granted. In residential areas developers will be encouraged to install a 20 foot landscape island in the center of the cul -de -sac, provided that adjacent residents or a homeowner's association will maintain the island.

The agency is focusing its efforts on attempting to build the first phase of a light rail system from either Convention Place Station or Royal Brougham Station in Seattle, to either South 154th Street or South 200th Street. Sound Transit plans to complete the Final EIS on the Tukwila Freeway Route in August and make a final decision on the route through Tukwila shortly after. PLANNING COMMISSION Conditional Use Application — AT &T Wireless — 11030 East Marginal Way South Planning Commission approved installation of antennae on existing monopole. Zoning Code Amendments Planning Commission also held a public hearing on the proposed 13 miscellaneous code amendments. They approved all amendments except one regarding cul -de -sac standards for residential streets. They asked Fire Department for some additional information regarding their standards prior to making any decision on it.

You asked Assistant Chief Olivas to research how often fire apparatus was dispatched to a call immediately after going in service from a previous call (back to back calls). The following numbers are from the months of January, February and March of 2001. January - 38 back to back calls February - 45 back to back calls March - 41 back to back calls MEMORANDUM There was also a question about whether our current dual standard had any negative effect on fire insurance rates. According to Assistant Chief Olivas the standard has no direct impact on rates. Attached is a map of cul -de -sacs throughout Tukwila. There are 34 total, with 8 in commercial areas and the rest in residential areas. Here is information about turnaround standards in neighboring jurisdictions: * 20' landscape island is required if paving exceeds 80' in diameter ** Hammerheads are not allowed unless as an interim step toward a planned through street C: \Nora's Filcs \CODEAMND \7- 26cul -de- sac.DOC Burien, King County, Des SeaTac Renton Kent Moines Tukwila 6300 Southcenter Boulevard, Suite #100 • Tukwila, Washington 98188 • Phone: 206 - 431 -3670 • Fax: 206 - 431 -3665 Steven M, Mullet, Mayor City of Tukwila HEARING DATE: June 28, 2001 FILE NUMBERS: L01 -032 Zoning Code Amendments E01 -012 SEPA Determination SEPA DETERMINATION: Determination of Non - Significance RECOMMENDATION: Approval STAFF REPORT TO THE PLANNING COMMISSION Prepared June 15, 2001 STAFF: Nora Gierloff, Associate Planner Jack Pace, Planning Manager Steven M.

Staff's suggested changes along with other options were presented to the Community z Affairs and Parks Committee for consideration on February 27 2001 and April 10, 2001. z I- ~ w cc 2 The Committee accepted Staff's recommendation on all items except L Add a parking standard 6 v for internet data centers. Their recommendation to the COW on L was to continue to set case by U 0 W 0 case parking requirements based on a parking study provided by the developer and reviewed by ci) w the Public Works Department as is our current practice. _I F. u) ' 0 The package was then presented to the City Council Committee of the Whole on April 23, 2001. 2 They concurred with the CAP's recommendations on all items except K. Add internet data g Q centers as allowed or conditional uses in specified zones. The COW chose the option that would co a allow internet data centers in RC and TUC in addition to the C /LI, LI, HI, MIC /L, MIC /H and i_ w TVS Zones that Staff had proposed and CAP had endorsed. z F- I—o zI— The Planning Commission held a worksession on May 24 to discuss the code amendments. The Commission asked Staff for additional information about pawnbrokers and turnaround standards. Item A, changing from a floor area ratio to lot coverage standard in LDR, will be postponed until a decision is made on the preferred method of regulating group homes. PROPOSED CHANGES Following are the 14 remaining code amendments. Each has an explanation of the reasoning behind the change followed by the strikeout/underline code language that reflects the COW's preferred option. The Planning Commission is asked to review the proposed changes and accept them as proposed (Option 1) or recommend to the Council that the proposal be modified (Option 2). This change will be incorporated into the group homes code amendments. B. Eliminate increased setbacks for the second story of structures in LDR The current LDR development standards require that the first story of a house be set back 20 feet from the front property line and the second story be set back 30 feet (TMC 18.10.060). The setbacks for the second front are 10 feet for the first floor and 15 for the second. This staggered setback requirement often results in a protruding garage and encourages a streetscape of garage doors. By having a single front yard setback builders are more likely to integrate the garage with the front of the house, making it less prominent. Staff's proposal is to have a 20 foot setback for the front and 10 foot setback for the second front in LDR, with no increase for the second story. Porches would still be allowed to be setback 15 feet from the front property line.

Portland has implemented code changes to encourage entries to face the street and reduce the prominence of garage doors on the streetscape. See Attachment A for Portland's code provisions. Following are the code revisions that would be required to implement the code change: 18.10.060 Basic development standards.

Recommend changes to the proposal a) Change the required setbacks b) Add design controls for LDR similar to Portland's code c) Other changes C. Prohibit the use of cargo containers as storage sheds in residential zones The City has received a number of inquiries from residents and businesses about the possibility of using cargo containers as storage sheds or accessory buildings. These containers are not compatible with residential character due to their size (generally 20 or 40 long by 8 feet wide) and industrial appearance (rectangular boxes made of corrugated metal). See Attachment B for examples of standard sizes. The Council recommended banning them from the MUO Zone as well as the LDR, MDR, and HDR Zones that Staff had proposed. However, they also raised the issue that some schools in Tukwila (located in LDR Zoning) store emergency supplies in this type of container. The schools lack other storage space and may be called upon to provide shelter in the case of a natural disaster, so it does serve a public need to station emergency supplies at that location.

Revise the Zoning Code definition of building height to match the Washington State Building Code The current definition of building height listed at 18.06.100 does not give clear guidance for determining the height of buildings on sloping sites.

Revise the Zoning Code definition of story to match the Washington State Building Code The current Zoning Code definition of story differs from the definition in the Washington State Building Code in a few key standards. This causes confusion and misunderstandings with applicants when they apply for a building permit and are told that they need to remove a story to comply with the number of stories allowed by their zone. This would not affect the LDR, TUC, HI, MIC /H or TVS Zones as they have specific height limits regardless of the number of stories. Under the proposed changes the definition of story would read as follows: TMC 18.06.790 Story. "Story" means that portion of a building included between the upper surface of any floor and the upper surface of the floor next above, except that the topmost story shall be that portion of a building included between the upper surface of the topmost floor and the ceiling or roof above. If the finished floor level directly above a basement is more than twe six feet above grade for more than 2950% of the total perimeter or is twelve feet above grade as defined at any point, such basement shall be considered as a story.

Is light assembling allowed for any product or only electronic equipment? Are each of these uses required to have at least 35% office or only biotechnology? Staff suggests that we delete the high tech category from MUO, 0, NCC, RC, RCM, TUC, C /LI, LI, HI, MIC /H and TVS as it has been deleted from MIC /L because the underlying uses of office, computer software development, electronics repair, light manufacturing, medical laboratories and warehouse storage are called out specifically in the various zones. While a high tech office use would be appropriate in the MUO or 0 zones, light manufacturing would not so the overly broad nature of the high tech category could result in the establishment of incompatible uses.

Pawnbrokers are not addressed as a use in Tukwila's Zoning Code and therefore are currently allowed in any zone that permits retail sales. However, pawnbrokers are distinct from other retail uses because they offer loans in exchange for personal property and therefore should be called out as a separate use and specified as allowed or conditional. Page 7 Two pawnbrokers are currently in operation in the City, both in the NCC Zone. This use is not compatible with the intent of the Neighborhood Commercial Center Zone because it serves a specialized, regional need not an everyday community need. The COW recommended adding pawnbrokers to the list of permitted uses in TUC, C /LI, LI, HI and TVS and conditional uses in RC and RCM Zones. z At the worksession the Commission asked for some additional information about regulating pawnbrokers. See Attachment E for a summary of State, King County and Seattle regulations. 6 Seattle, Federal Way, SeaTac, Vancouver WA and King County limit the number of v 0 w pawnbrokers to one per 15,000 residents and Seattle does not allow them in neighborhood J commercial zones. w Options: 2 g Q 1.

Add a definition for Pawnbrokers If the Planning Commission elects to recommend adding pawnbrokers to the listed uses in the Zoning Code the term "pawnbroker" should be defined. Pawnbrokers are distinguished from second hand dealers such as Goodwill by the fact that they offer loans in exchange for goods. To implement the proposed change the following definition would be added to the Zoning Code: I 8.06.XXX Pawnbroker. "Pawnbroker" is an establishment offering loans in exchange for personal property and engaged in the buying or selling of new or secondhand merchandise. Options: 1. Recommend that the Council make the above change to add a definition for pawnbroker 2. Recommend changes to the definition K. Add Internet Data Centers as allowed or conditional uses in specified Zones Tukwila is seeing the rapid development of interne data centers by such companies as Exodus, Globix, AboveNet, Zama Networks, Qwest, HostPro, Verio and Netstream. We have administratively determined that although this use is not called out in the Zoning Code it will be allowed in zones that allow high tech, warehouse storage and telephone exchanges. Given the proliferation and impacts of this new type of use it should be recognized in Tukwila's Zoning Code. C :\Nora's Files \CODEAMND\ZoneAmendPC.DOC Page 8 z Though the use itself, climate - controlled warehouse space for computers with minimal support and security staff, has few direct impacts the HVAC units and emergency power generators can create high noise levels. For efficiency and security the buildings generally have large floor plates with minimal windows or modulation. The use is most appropriate for, and has primarily occurred in industrial zones. However we are seeing interest in locating these uses in commercial zones such as the TUC. The Council wanted to pursue the option of adding internet data centers to the list of permitted uses in the RC, TUC, C /LI, LI, HI, MIC /L, MIC/H and TVS Zones. Options: 1. Recommend that the Council add internet data centers to the permitted uses in the RC, TUC, C /LI, LI, HI, MIC /L, MIC/H and TVS Zones 2. Recommend changes to the proposal a) Select different zones to list internet data centers as permitted or conditional uses b) Other changes The Council did not want to pursue this amendment. Staff will continue to administratively set a parking requirement for each business based on a parking study provided by the applicant. M. Add a definition for Internet Data Centers If the Commission elects to add internet data centers to the listed uses in the Zoning Code the term "internet data center" should be defined in the Code. The following addition would be required: 18.06.XXX Internet Data Center. "Internet data center" means a secure, climate controlled facility with emergency backup power that contains telephone transmission equipment, computer network routers, switches and servers (usually Web servers) for one or more companies. Options: 1. Recommend that the Council make the above change to add the definition 2. Recommend changes to the definition N. Amend the Subdivision Standard for Turnarounds During the rewrite of the Subdivision Code in 1998 the City Council approved a cul -de -sac turnaround standard for single family that was smaller than the standard for multi - family and commercial developments. It is the Fire Department's position that the 1997 Uniform Fire Code gives the Fire Chief the authority to set cul -de -sac and hammerhead dimensions. Chief Keefe C: \Nora's _Files \CODEAMND\ZoneAmendPC.DOC Page 9 ` r .. " . s tWii:.�a# z5: iti' �? SXiksal3sdl , Mfl60$"i.77.

The Fire Department requests that the development standards in the Subdivision Code be amended to show only one turnaround requirement for a 92 foot diameter right -of -way with 81 feet of paving. They think that it is unwise to allow the sidewalk area to be used as part of the turning radius because a fully loaded truck can damage sidewalks and crush utility boxes and vaults. To balance the increased amount of paved surface required by the 81 foot standard Staff is recommending that a 20 foot landscape island be required in the center of the cul -de -sac. The Fire Department has determined that this would not interfere with the turning radius of their fire engines, though it may be damaged by the ladder truck. Under the proposed changes the road standard table in the Subdivision Code would be amended as follows: During its review of these amendments the Council asked for additional information on how other jurisdictions implement Traditional Neighborhood Development goals which include reducing street widths to calm traffic and create more livable streets. Attachment F contains a City of Portland report that explores the balance between the needs of emergency vehicles and residents and makes recommendations for residential pavement and right -of -way widths. Our access road standards are not much different than Portland's, though they allow parking on both sides of the street for that width. Portland's residential cul -de -sac standard calls for an 80 foot R- OW and 70 feet of paving. The Commission expressed a similar interest in reducing street widths and overall paving area. The literature suggests that narrower street widths are most appropriate when there is a traditional pattern of interconnected streets (grid), see Attachment H, "Get to know your fire chief." In an area with few through streets, as on Tukwila Hill, it is difficult to disperse traffic C: \Nora's Files \CODEAMND\ZoneAmendPC.DOC Page 10 evenly and approach emergency locations from two directions. Much of the infill development that is occurring in Tukwila (other than Allentown) is through back lots accessed off of private dead end streets. Therefore as development occurs we are concentrating more traffic on existing streets (hierarchical system) rather than creating new connections (networked system). Attachment I contains a chapter on cul -de -sacs from Residential Streets, a manual compiled by the American Society of Civil Engineers, National Association of Homebuilders and the Urban Land Institute. The authors contend that "It is more economical to purchase trucks that fit a community's streets than to build all streets to meet the needs of infrequently used trucks." However this is a long term solution that can only be implemented as fire engines are replaced. Options: 1. Recommend that the Council change to the single cul -de -sac standard and investigate narrower street standards at another time 2. Do not change the current Subdivision standards 0. Remove the fee for Street Vacations from the Zoning Code The auditor has requested that we remove the fee for street vacations from the schedule in the Application Fees Chapter of the Zoning Code (18.88). DCD does not accept applications or collect fees for street vacations so they should not be listed in the Zoning Code. Vacations are a Public Works responsibility and the logical place to list the fee amount would be in the Street and Alley Vacation Procedure chapter (11.60). Public Works is currently updating the Vacation Procedure Chapter and will insert the fee amount. 18.88.010 Application fees. The following fees shall be paid by any applicant for a land use permit at the same time that said application is filed with the City: Type of Application Fee Comprehensive plan amendment Conditional use permit (CUP) Design review (BAR) Planned Residential Development(PRD) Reclassification (rezone) Shoreline substantial development permit Short Plat/Binding Site Improvement Plan Street vacation Unclassified use permit (UUP) Variance 600.00 Boundary line adjustments 50.00 Special review (parking /sign deviation, etc.) 200.00 Zoning Code Amendment Preliminary Plat Final Plat C: \Nora's _Files \CODEAMND\ZoneAmendPC.DOC $700.00 850.00 900.00 800.00 plus 100.00 /acre 700.00 550.00 200.00 120.00 850.00 700.00 800.00 plus 75.00 per lot 400.00 plus 25.00 per lot Page 1 1 Application for renewals of any land use permit, provided such renewals are specifically authorized, shall pay the same fee required for the land use permit being renewed. Options: 1. Recommend that the Council make the above change 2. Decline to change the fee schedule P. Change the Zoning Code to allow structures over the right - of - way Currently the Tukwila Zoning Code does not allow for structures to be built over street right -of- way similar to the Convention Center or the Nordstrom skybridge in Seattle. The proposed code change would provide a process for developers to request waivers from the setback provisions of the code. This process would not be exempt the development from SEPA, design review, building permit or the need to negotiate air rights from the agency with jurisdiction over the R- O -W. 18.50.0XX Structures over R -O -W A developer who controls parcels on both sides of a public right -of -way may request approval to bridge the street with a structure as a Type 2 special permission decision. Only the width of the building that extends across the street is exempt from setbacks, the remainder of the building must meet them. The developer must also obtain air rights and comply with all other relevant codes including the Washington State Building Code. Options: 1. Recommend that the Council make the above change 2. Recommend changes to the proposal a) Require a conditional use permit instead of Director's approval b) Other changes REQUESTED ACTION Consider the proposed changes at a public hearing on June 28 and make a recommendation to the City Council on each of the above proposals.

Purpose. These standards: • Together with the street - facing facade and garage standards, ensure that there is a physical and visual connection between the living area of the residence and the street; • Enhance public safety for residents and visitors and provide opportunities for community interaction; • Ensure that the pedestrian entrance is visible or clearly identifiable from the street by its orientation or articulation; and • Ensure that pedestrians can easily find the main entrance, and so establish how to enter the residence. B. Where these standards apply. The standards of this section apply to houses, attached houses, manufactured homes, and duplexes in the RI0 through R2.5 zones. Where a proposal is for an alteration or addition to existing development, the standards of this section apply only to the portion being altered or added. Development on flag lots or on lots that slope up or down from the street with an average slope of 20 percent or more is exempt from these standards. In addition, subdivisions and PUDs that received preliminary plan approval between September 9, 1990, and September 9, 1995, are exempt from these standards. C. Location. At least one main entrance for each structure must: 1. Be within 8 feet of the longest street - facing wall of the dwelling unit; and 2. Either: a. Face the street. See Figure 110 -4; b. Be at an angle of up to 45 degrees from the street; or c. Open onto a porch. See Figure 110 -5. The porch must: (1) Be at least 25 square feet in area; (2) Have at least one entrance facing the street; and (3) Have a roof that is: • No more than 12 feet above the floor of the porch; and • At least 30 percent solid. This standard may be met by having 30 percent of the porch area covered with a solid roof, or by having the entire area covered with a trellis or other open material if no more than 70 percent of the area of the material is open. 33.110.232 Street - Facing Facades in R10 through R2.5 Zones A. Purpose. This standard: • Together with the main entrance and garage standards, ensures that there is a visual connection between the living area of the residence and the street; • Enhances public safety by allowing people to survey their neighborhood from inside their residences; and • Provides a more pleasant pedestrian environment by preventing large expanses of blank facades along streets. Attachment A B. Where this standard applies. The standard of this section applies to houses, attached houses, manufactured homes, and duplexes in the RIO through R2.5 zones. Where a proposal is for an alteration or addition to existing development, the standard applies only to the portion being altered or added. Development on flag lots or on lots which slope up or down from the street with an average slope of 20 percent or more are exempt from this standard. In addition, subdivisions and PUDs that received preliminary plan approval between September 9, 1990, and September 9, 1995, are exempt from this standard. C. The standard. At least 15 percent of the area of each facade that faces a street lot line must be windows or main entrance doors. Windows in garage doors do not count toward meeting this standard, but windows in garage walls do count toward meeting this standard. To count toward meeting this standard, a door must be at the main entrance and facing a street lot line.

Bray, P.E. Karen Carlson Rabiner, P.E. Transportation Engineering & Development October 18, 1991 (Revised August 1, 1994) Introduction Development Standards Recommended Standards INTRODUCTION Over the past ninety years, it has been Portland's policy to provide maintenance services on only those local streets built to City standards. Those standards were developed to ensure that streets accepted for City maintenance meet necessary safety and durability requirements. Streets in new subdivisions and other raw land developments are built to city standards at the expense of the developers, who then pass the cost along to new home buyers. Construction of City streets in existing neighborhoods has been accomplished through the city- managed Local Improvement District program, with the costs being assessed upon the adjacent, benefiting properties. Of the approximately 1200 miles of local streets in Portland, virtually all were improved through these two approaches. In Portland today, only about 80 miles of public rights -of -way used as neighborhood streets remain unimproved. Many of the residents of these neighborhoods feel that the City offers too few improvement options, that the street standards are excessive, and that streets built to these standards are too costly. Added to those concerns is growing public dissatisfaction with high traffic speeds and volumes on streets already improved to city standards. Street drainage, erosion control and water pollution issues have emerged in the Tualatin River Basin, and are a growing concern across the city. In 1988, a citizens committee was created to look at and search for solutions to the problems associated with unimproved neighborhood streets. Through a committee, a consultant was Page 1 of 8 http: / /www. trans. ci. portland.or.us /PDOT_ SERVICES /local_street improvements.htr Attachment F 1. Allow additional street 4. Allow mountable curbs to width variations be used in turnaround areas 2. Allow right-of-way widths 5. Reduce minimum required to coincide with street widths separated sidewalk width to four feet 3. Allow reduced dead -end street turnaround sizes Local Street Improvements retained to "brainstorm" new solutions to traditional neighborhood street problems. At the suggestion of the consultant, the committee recommended that the City develop new standards for City - maintained residential streets. In May 1990, the City began development of new standards for City- maintained residential streets. This report summarizes the development of those new residential street standards. The standards were adopted by the Portland City Council on July 31, 1991. DEVELOPMENT OF STANDARDS In a report prepared by the consulting firm of Cogan Sharpe Cogan, it was recommended that City staff "...begin the effort to establish a performance evaluation approach to determine appropriate street improvement standards, while remaining acceptable for maintenance." Within the body of literature pertaining to the role of the neighborhood street and its impact on the surrounding environment, the 1980 Bucks County, Pennsylvania publication, Performance Streets, reflected a new and substantially different view of the purposes of the various elements of residential street design. That document states: • "Whether street standards were intuitively based or adapted from highway design, what seemed to have been overlooked was that local residential streets are part and parcel of the neighborhood they serve. People live on them. It would seem desirable, therefore, not solely to move traffic safely and efficiently, but to see that the needs of people for a residential neighborhood that is quiet, safe, pleasant, convenient and sociable are met as well." In 1990, the National Association of Home Builders, the Urban Land Institute, and the American Society of Civil Engineers joined to publish another milestone in urban street design, Residential Streets, which advocates: • Designing to minimize traffic volumes and speeds in residential areas • Properly scaled streets • Streets planned to avoid excessive stormwater runoff • Streets which can serve as meeting places and centers of community activity http:// www.trans.ci.portland.or.us /PDOT_ SERVICES /local_street_improvements.htm Page 2 of 8 5/4/2001 1 Local Street Improvements Page 3 of 8 The philosophies espoused in both documents are clearly shared by many Port landers. The challenge was to find a way to bring them to reality in Portland. The citizens committee's recommendation to develop performance standards was the beginning. The City retained a consultant to research the existing standards of several other communities for purposes of comparison, and then to propose new performance -based standards in an interim report. Transportation could then evaluate and refine those standards, secure public comment, and modify them as needed, before final City Council approval of implementation. In March 1991, the consultant completed the required interim report. Below are the consultant's key suggestions, followed by Transportation's recommendations. 1. Allow additional street width variations. • Response: Transportation concurs with this recommendation. The City's existing neighoborhood street standards are designed primarily as a traffic facility comprised of two travel lanes, plus either two parking lanes, one parking lane, or no parking, yielding widths of 32, 28, or 20 feet, respectively. Transportation proposes (a) reducing the current 32 -foot standard to 26 feet, and (b) reducing the current 28 -foot standard to 20 feet. The problems of high speeds and through, non - neighborhood traffic have been the source of continuing complaints from throughout the community. Streets designed to existing standards accommodate higher travel speeds. By virtue of the appearance of the 28 or 32 -foot streets as wide, inviting thoroughfares, they may also be used as a short-cut by non - neighborhood traffic. In addition to being considered costly to construct, the existing standards produce excessive stormwater runoff, require wide rights -of -way, are wasteful of natural resources, and demand clearing of many trees and other vegetation. An approach which reduces all of these problems, and one advocated in the publication Residential Streets, is building narrower streets with only a single travel lane. These "queuing streets ", intended for two -way traffic, are comprised of a single traffic lane and a parking lane on one or both sides. When two vehicles meet on a queuing street, one of the vehicles must yield by pulling over into a vacant segment of the adjacent parking lane. (Of interest is the fact that many of the City's older local streets range from 18 to 28 feet wide and, as such, are queuing streets.) http: / /www.trans.ci.portland.or.us /PDOT_ SERVICES /local_street_improvements.htm 5/4/2001 Local Street Improvements Acceptable operation of a queuing street occurs only where there are occasional breaks in the curbside parking approximately forty feet in length to permit the yielding vehicle to pull over. These breaks are ordinarily available where ample off - street parking for residents is available, and where on- street parking by residents or guests is only occasional. Breaks in parking are also provided by individual driveways, combinations of driveways, and intersections. These conditions are commonly satisfied in areas Comprehensive Plan Single Dwelling Residential Zoned, R5 (5000 square feet per dwelling unit) through RF (2 acres per dwelling unit). In more densely -zoned areas, queuing streets may be inappropriate because of inadequate off - street parking capacity, or because of differing emergency response requirements. The City currently requires all streets in new subdivisions to be built to accommodate on- street parking. The City requires through streets to be 32 feet wide, which permits two travel lanes plus on- street parking on both sides of the street. For either cul -de- sacs, or streets serving 30 or fewer dwellings, or one- way streets, the required dimension is 28 feet, which permits two travel lanes and a parking lane on one side only. It is proposed that through streets be built with a single travel lane with parking on one or both sides, for widths of 20 or 26 feet, respectively. It is also recommended that the decision to provide a street with two -side versus one -side parking be at the discretion of the developer of the subdivision or of the property owners funding construction of the street. The proposal to reduce the widths of through streets differs from that for cul -de -sacs, where it is proposed that the 20 and 26 -foot widths be permitted to be further reduced to 18 and 24 feet, respectively. The two foot reduction, termed the "cul -de -sac compromise ", would be constructed only if requested by those funding the street improvement. Although the additional two - foot reduction in travel lane width reduces impervious surfaces and saves natural resources, it also further reduces the ease of operation between adjacent parked and moving vehicles. Because a cul -de -sac serves only those who are directly accessed by it, the two -foot reduction may be a desirable element for those residing on the street. Because the site of a fire emergency can be accessed from either direction on a through street, the Portland Fire Bureau has endorsed the proposed reduced street widths for through streets, but cul -de -sac streets present a problem for fire fighting operations. Hydrants are normally located at the intersection, and the first fire apparatus responding to an emergency pauses to connect its hoses to that hydrant. The truck then moves up the http: / /www. trans. ci. portland.or.us /PDOT_ SERVICES /local_street improvements.htm Page 4 of 8 5/4/2001 Local Street Improvements street, with the hose being drawn out from the rear, "snaking" out over the lane. If the street is narrow enough for only a single travel lane, such as with a queuing street, the second apparatus would have to drive over the charged hoses, risking greater damage or injury. Instead, on "short" cul -de -sacs, the second vehicle will park at the intersection and needed equipment can be carried to the scene by the firefighters. On longer cul -de -sac streets, fire fighting capabilities may be seriously compromised if all equipment must be hand - carried to the emergency scene from the second or third apparatus. In addition, long, tightly curved, narrow cul -de -sacs with on- street parking may be physically inaccessible to fire apparatus. For that reason, except with the Fire Bureau Chiefs approval of measures designed to facilitate fire protection capabilities, it is proposed that newly - platted cul -de -sacs greater than 300 feet in length be built as a "fire lane ", with two unobstructed travel lanes and, if needed, additional parking lanes. It is proposed that curbs be required, except where unsuitable or inappropriate, on all through streets. Curbs are used on City streets to: a) facilitate sidewalk construction; b) confine vehicles to the roadway; c) control on- street parking; d) protect adjacent landscaping; e) channel street drainage; and f) accommodate roof drains. Circumstances under which curbs may be omitted may include, for example, where roadside drainage swales are necessary for water quality control purposes, or where City- adopted neighborhood plans provide the framework and rationale for uncurbed "lane" treatments. 2. Allow right - of - way widths to coincide with street widths. • Response: Transportation concurs with this recommendation, and proposes reducing the right -of- way widths required for queuing streets in Plan Single Dwelling Residential Zones R7, R10, R20 and RF. Retain sufficient right -of -way width in zone R5 to accommodate the potential of sidewalk/planting strip construction on both sides of the street. Dedication of rights -of -way greatly in excess of those needed to accommodate specific street widths is costly and unreasonable. Proposed right -of -way widths are shown on Page 8. These reduced widths permit greater utilization of privately developable land, while maintaining sufficient space for utility installations and sidewalks. 3. Allow reduced dead - end street turnaround sizes. • Response: Transportation concurs with this http:// www .trans.ci.portland.or.us /PDOT_ SERVICES /local_street_improvements.htm Page 5 of 8 5/4/2001 :i •c;a. is r.v;:;r +� <<�,. .�.Y.r:wt'vnc➢1.A$u'iX3 .�•,'f 4ih'LC Local Street Improvements Page 6 of 8 recommendation, and proposes adoption of a reduced diameter of 70 feet for all newly - platted dead -end streets. The current standard diameter of all dead -end street turnarounds is 90 feet, and was originally developed to allow the largest fire apparatus to turn around without requiring a backing maneuver. According to Residential Streets, "vehicle types that rarely use the street should not be a determining factor in the design. When weighed against the disadvantages of an extensive paved area - poor aesthetics, higher maintenance and installation costs, increased stormwater runoff, and the significant limits that large dimensional requirements place on sound land planning - the minor inconvenience experienced by some drivers in reversing direction is not an important consideration." Bucks County's Performance Streets states, "Cul -de -sac turnarounds should be designed no larger than necessary to permit free turning of the largest service vehicles regularly serving the neighborhood." 4. Allow mountable curbs to be used in turnaround areas. • Response: Transportation concurs with this recommendation. Once homes are built on the property adjacent to a cul- de -sac, the majority of the curb line within the cul -de- sac is occupied by driveways. Permitting mountable curb to be constructed at the time of initial construction of the cul -de -sac will preclude-the need to tear out and replace the curbing with driveway approaches. Mountable curbs are not permitted elsewhere because they: a) permit and may encourage easy vehicular access to the front yard area of a residence, in conflict with City planning regulations; and b) permit easy vehicular access to the sidewalk area, which can cause sidewalk damage for which the property owner is liable. 5. Reduce minimum required separated sidewalk width to four feet. • Response: Transportation concurs with this recommendation, but only in Comprehensive Plan Single Dwelling Zones R7, R10, R20, and RF. The current minimum required width of a sidewalk in a residential area is five feet. Where a sidewalk is built adjacent to the curb without an intervening planting strip, pedestrians are forced to share the sidewalk with utility poles, signs, mail boxes, etc. A five -foot width is needed to provide space for pedestrian use around those obstacles. Where a sidewalk is built separate from the curb, the sidewalk is not similarly obstructed, and a four -foot width is sufficient for low volume pedestrian http:// www .trans.ci.portland.or.us /PDOT_ SERVICES /local_street_improvements.htm 5/4/2001 • Local Street Improvements usage found in low density areas R7 through RF.

Attachments: A. SEPA Checklist B. Staff Report to Planning Commission Project Description: A set of 15 proposed amendments to the Zoning Code on topics ranging from minor housekeeping or clarification to policy decisions about allowed uses and development standards. Agencies With Jurisdiction: Washington State Department of Ecology Summary of Primary Impacts: 1. Earth - This is a non - project proposal. The change from a floor area ratio to a lot coverage standard could potentially increase the amount of impervious surface in the LDR zone. The increase in paved diameter required for residential cul -de -sacs could also increase impervious surface, though that is lessened by the required landscape island. 2. Air - This is a non - project proposal and no air impacts are expected. Attachment G 3. Water — This is a non - project proposal and does not affect Tukwila's adoption of the standards in the King County Surface Water Design Manual. 4. Plants - This is a non - project proposal. Amendment D would add additional detail to Tukwila's landscape plan requirements. 5. Animals — The proposed amendments will affect areas along the Green River shoreline, habitat of the endangered Chinook salmon. However, no changes to Tukwila's Shoreline Regulations are proposed. 6. Energy and Natural Resources - This is a non - project proposal and should not affect energy usage. 7. Environmental Health - Internet data centers have backup power generators and HVAC equipment that can be noisy. The proposed amendments do not change the fact that these facilities are being built in Tukwila, they only formalize the zones in which they are permitted. Tukwila would continue to enforce its Noise Ordinance to control auditory impacts. 8. Land and Shoreline Use - The amendments would affect parcels with sensitive areas but would not change the Sensitive Area Ordinance or Shoreline Regulations. The two existing pawnbrokers in Tukwila would be made non - conforming by amendment I. This will help to preserve the desired neighborhood commercial character along Tukwila International Boulevard. 9. Housing - The proposal will not result in a change to the housing supply. Amendments A and B would allow for somewhat larger single family houses to be built, and would have their most visible impact on small non - conforming infill lots . 10. Aesthetics - The proposed amendments would not affect design review or screening requirements so no aesthetic impacts are expected. 11. Light and Glare - This is a non - project proposal and no impacts are expected. 12. Recreation - The proposal will not affect recreational facilities. 13. Historical and Cultural Preservation - The proposed amendments should not have any impacts on historic or cultural sites. 14. Transportation - No transportation related impacts are expected from the amendments. 15. Public Services - This is a non - project proposal and no impacts are expected. 16. Utilities - Internet data centers are high electricity users. However the proposed amendments do not change the fact that these facilities are being built in Tukwila, they only formalize the zones in which they are permitted. -mat, NOTICE: IF THE DOCUMENT IN THIS FRAME IS LESS CLEAR THAN THIS NOTICE IT IS DUE TO THE QUALITY OF THE DOCUMENT. _ j Get to know your fire chief MARY STALKER. JOHN ANDERSON. AND TOM DIGIOVANNI O ver the last decade, many designers, engineers, de- velopers, local officials, emergency response person- nel, and neighborhood residents have found themselves struggling over seemingly competing objectives when it comes to good street design. Ultimately, however, among the many values at stake in street design, public safety always emerges as the final arbiter. But even within this incontestable objective, a conflict .has emerged that has only recently been thoroughly defined and studied, and i is starting to be addressed: the seeming conflict lies be- tween the need for rapid emergency response to any lo- cation and achieving slow, safe everyday neighborhood streets. THE INGREDIENTS OF A CONFLICT The three basic neighborhood street type and circula- tion models, within which everyday and emergency - vehicle circulation takes place, help us to understand the nature of the problem and to find possible sources for the solution. 1. Pre- l 940sgridded neighborhoods. While postwardevel- opment models superceded this type, these old neighbor- hoods still exist and,, require emergency response to con- tinue to function within their patterns of narrow streets. 2. Postwar subdivisions (i.e. curvilinear layout, cul -de- sacs, dead ends, hierarchical street system). Most current. emergency response maneuvers have been developed to serve the un- networked street patterns of this era — ma- neuvers which necessitate extremely wide streets. In turn, new equipment size greatly increased during this time, since new technologies were developing within the con- text of the new very wide streets. Often, over time, resi- dents of these subdivisions request the installation of traf- fic- calming features to slow speeds generated by overly wide streets. 3. Neotraditional networked neighborhoods. Many new neighborhood designers are returning to the design in- telligence found within the traditional neighborhoods' in- terconnected network of narrow, tree - lined, slow, safe streets. However, they then find themselves in conflict with the maneuvers fire departments have established to get their equipment to fire emergencies on wide dead - end streets. THE FIRE DEPARTMENT'S VIEW If you live in the West, Your state has probably adopted what is called the "Western Fire Code" — or elsewhere, a similar equivalent. This code says that streets should have a minimum 20 -foot "clear" fire access way — meaning be- tween parked cars, medians or any other possible obstruc- tion. The rationale behind this guideline is to allow for a specific, but widely accepted, firefighting maneuver, the "cul -de -sac maneuver," which works as follows: Cooperation and education are the keys to building human -.i,ue and ensuring public safety. MARCH 2001 11 a u i C�57 Z r 4 - "OFCe AL The Cul -de -sac maneuver. The first engine responding will get close to the fire, stop along the way to hook up hose to the nearest hydrant, and then drive the rest of the way to the fire, laving hose as they go. The firefighters deploy their truck near the building, opening equipment cabinets along the side of the fire truck. The second fire truck responding follows the same route as the first into the scene of the fire, hooks up to the same hydrant, and must now be able to pass the fully deployed truck already at the scene. The 20 -foot clear guideline is intended to provide the necessary space for the second truck to pass the first truck. There have been suggestions that the solution to the "skinny- streets-vs.-big-fire-trucks" problem is simply get- ting fire departments to purchase smaller vehicles. As in many other areas of vehicle and construction technology, managers in the industry feel bigger is better, since the new, big trucks have all the latest, best features - one vehicle does it all (ladder and pump, etc.). Fire departments may be reluctant to invest in new equipment that is somehow "less" than the best available (this, in fact, explains why some small towns with no building higher than two sto- ries might have a fire truck fit for fighting mid -rise com- mercial). To think this is going to change significantly any time soon is probably naive. And even if towns immedi- ately chose to change to smaller vehicles, it would take years for most fleets to turn over, considering the sticker prices for new equipment. For all of these reasons, it seems that large fire apparatus will remain a characteristic of fire departments for many years to come. Therefore, other so- lutions must be sought. THE DESIGNERS' AND USERS' VIEW From the point of view of urban designers, developers and residents, narrow streets are highly desirable for many reasons. 1) With slow, safe, human- scaled, well- landscaped streets, residents walk more and are more likely to meet their neighbors. They feel' a stronger sense of community, which leads to less crime and increased overall safety. Also, health experts say that integrating walking into regular daily patterns is a very effective way to incorporate exer- cise into busy, modern lives. 2) A 24 to 26 foot (curb -to -curb) street with parking on Attachment H both sides is considered ideal for walkable streets because it slows traffic (traffic calming through street geometry). Walkers feel most comfortable when vehicle speeds are kept to 10 to 25 mph, because slower traffic means safer streets! The wider the street, the more likely cars are to speed — and with faster speeds, accidents become more likely, and more deadly (pedestrians hit by vehicle traveling 13 mph have a 96 percent chance of survival; at 40 mph, survival chance drops to 17 percent). 3) Narrow streets reduce neighborhood "cut- through" traffic that is encouraged by wide, fast streets. 4) Street trees lining both sides of a narrow street pro- vide a canopy that almost completely shades the street in summer, producing up to a 10 to 15 degree temperature drop in a sunny climate. In the California Central Valley, for example, this can save up to 25 percent on energy con- sumption during warm months. 5) Narrow streets generate less noise because of the lower speeds and the lack of need for speed bumps and stop signs, both of which increase traffic noise. 6) Space that is usually consumed by street pavement can be transferred to residential alleys to provide car stor- age (garages) and parking in the rear of the houses. RESPONSE AND SAFE STREETS In the mid- 1990s, Peter Swift, of the civil engineering and town planning firm Swift and Associates, undertook to compile and analyze accident data in the town of Longmont, Colorado, and published the results in a paper titled "Resi- dential Street Typology and Injury Accident Frequency" (http: // members.aol.com /Phswi /Swift - street.html; email: phswi @aol.com); this research paper is currently under peer review for publication through Institute of Transportation Engineers.) The research shows that over the eight -year study period, there was only one serious fire and a number of smaller fires, with no injuries; by contrast, there were 227 automotive accidents (both car /car and car /pedestrian) resulting in injuries, mostly on wide streets. This kind of information can provide local fire chief with a public safety basis for making exceptions to the street design requirements of the adopted fire code. If there is a correlation between wider streets, higher speeds, and a greater frequency of in- jury accidents, then should wide streets still be built prima- rily for the purposes of fighting residential structure fires? When the accidents and the fires are counted, you can get a statistical basis for a more comprehensive approach to pub- lic safety: that a connected network of narrower streets pro- vides greater overall public safety. Fire EMERGENCY RESPONSE VS. TRAFFIC • CALMING IN EXISTING NEIGHBORHOODS While in most situations fire departments are success- trucks have multiple access routes on MARCH 2001 ful in sustaining veto power over designs for narrow streets in planned developments to accommodate their "cul -de- sac maneuver," they are often not as successful in over- turning residents' later demands for retrofitting streets with traffic - calming devices to slow overall traffic speeds. By this time, neighbors are often able to point to actual acci- dents, injuries, and near tragedies that have occurred on these overly wide, fast streets, and their case begins to look stronger than the case for getting the second fire truck to any location at the maximum speed (e.g. Seattle — com- prehensive traffic- calming strategy reduced accidents by 94 percent in traffic - calmed areas). So, over the protest of the fire department, street designers are tasked to install traffic calming barriers to slow all vehicles on these streets. This unintentionally creates the final safety con- flict of the ongoing street design and redesign cycle. In many situations, the fire truck is the way that the • department's emergency medical technicians (cross - trained firefighters) get to their medical 911 calls. While driving a 40 -foot long ladder truck to respond to medical emergencies may not require the "20 -foot clear," fast re- sponse time is critical to survival rates in medical response situations. This is where the traffic calming features such as speed bumps and stop signs — installed in the pre- vious stage of the cycle to - slow down the overly -wide an interconnected grid. f • streets — greatly impact emergency response times. By contrast, streets that are designed for slow, safe every - day neighborhood circulation make such traffic - calming barriers unnecessary. GETTING TO SOLUTIONS Local municipalities are supposed to abide by the fire codes they adopt. Their insurance rating will consider fac- tors like emergency response times, fire and ambulance equipment, staffing levels, staff experience, and training. A local fire chief has discretion in applying the code, but will need to be able to make a case for making departures from that code in the interest of increasing overall public safety. Therefore, the solution must lie in establishing street designs that can satisfy both public safety needs — emer- gency response, and slow, safe neighborhood streets. The solution takes place at two scales: the citywide or townwide scale and the neighborhood scale. NETWORK DESIGN AND EMERGENCY RESPONSE ROUTES The most basic solutions to ensuring emergency re- sponse access without compromising traffic safety must be established at the citywide scale. Town planners and fire departments each have their own role in this effort, and must work together on overlapping issues: 1) Circulation Networks: The first role belongs to town s NEW URBAN NEWS planners overseeing the design and expansion of citywide circulation networks. A system of well- connected streets with an overall hierarchy of clear, main response routes is most critical to emergency response. With such networks, the exact conditions on the last block or so are not critical, i because there are multiple access -ways to any one loca- tion on that block. 2) Working Together. Within the interconnected net- work, planners and fire officials can work together to cre- ate, map and ensure enforcement of well- established pri- mary emergency response. routes on free - flowing, unob- structed avenues and boulevards, es- pecially along routes to hospitals. Further, whereas in a conventional street hierarchy system (arterials, col - lectors, minor collectors, residential streets), limited route options to any single location often force emergency vehicles to leave the arterials streets sooner, with a densely interconnected network of streets, they can opt to stay on the main routes longer because of the many differ- ent options for approach. This gets them closer to the emer- gencv location before they turn onto the slower, narrower neighborhood streets. 3) Fire Departments — Location and Enforcement. Fire Departments play an important role in the success of slow, safe narrow street systems by locating fire stations on the 'edge of neighborhoods, ensuring quickest access on what are appropriately the slowest streets. Fire officials should also regularly review the established main routes for safety, issues and enforcement (site lines, illegal double parking and delivery parking, etc.). THE WIDER THE STREET, THE MORE LIKELY CARS ARE TO SPEED — AND WITH FASTER SPEEDS, ACCI— DENTS BECOME MORE LIKELY, AND MORE DEADLY. STREET DESIGN SOLUTIONS AT THE NEIGHBORHOOD SCALE Just as at the city scale, an interconnected network of streets is very important to emergency response within the neighborhood. The fire truck maneuver described earlier makes sense if the fire is on a cul -de -sac or within a hierar- chical street system. However, to fight a fire at a location on a connected street network, the first arriving fire com- pany can assess the situation and direct the approach of the second company, e.g. from the opposite end of the block, using another fire hydrant, if it does not have room to pass the first truck. In fact, many fire departments have already adapted their operations to do just this in the older, pre -1940s neighborhoods. Our conversations with local fire officials have yielded several neighborhood design features, completely compat- ible with TND design, which in turn can be used to en- hance fire and emergency response objectives. These in- clude: 1) Intersection visibility: Small curb radii are workable, but keep street trees and other landscaping 20 feet from intersections. Also, the placement of "bulb- outs" at inter - sections, which prevent parking within 30 to 40 feet of an intersection, will reassure the fire department that inter- MARCH 2001 13 sections will be free of obstructions. 2) Rear alleys: A staple of TND neighborhood design, the use of alleys can also help persuade fire officials that off - street parking has been adequately provided for, thereby reducing the need for obstructive on- street park- ing loads. 3) Shorter blocks: Hose lengths can extend up to 150 feet. Block lengths under 300 feet allow fire fighters to get to a location from either end of the block in the unlikely circumstance of a street blockage. 4) Long term infrastructure vs. shorter -term practice: If the Fire Department still does not agree to narrower street design, pro- pose a 26 foot curb -to -curb design with one -sided parking to create the 20 foot clearance required. Then, in the future, when attitudes change, the desired narrow street infrastructure is in place just remove the "no parking" signs! CONCLUSION With these strategies of communication, consideration and comprehensive design solutions, street design can accommodate all pieces of the public safety goal that have placed designers, developers, neighborhood residents and .emergency responders at odds. The key is to become an ally of your local fire officials in the important civic responsibility of protecting the public. Learn more about their needs and perspectives, and use design talent to bring about a solution in your community or project. And when certain fire departments continue to say, "No - we can and will insist on the wide streets because we save lives," TND designers and developers should con- tinue to offer the response "Slowing traffic can ,also save. lives" (quote from a Portland fire fighter). • Marl, Stalker and Toni DiGiovanni are with Heritage Partners, a new urbanist consulting and development firm in Chico, Cali- . fornia.

Cul -de -Sac Turnarounds In determining the design of the turnaround section of a cul -de- sac, planners should consider both vehicle type and traffic volume. Vehicle types that rarely use the street should not be a determining factor in the design. When weighed against the disadvantages of an extensive paved area —poor aesthetics, higher maintenance and installation costs, increased stormwater runoff, and the signifi- cant limits that large dimensional requirements place on sound land planning —the minor inconvenience experienced by some drivers in reversing direction is not an important consideration. On most cul -de -sacs, a circular turnaround area is preferable (Figure 2 -23). A T- or Y- shaped turnaround should be used for dead -end alleys and short cul -de -sacs serving only a few (up to 10) homes (Figure 2 -24). Shared driveways that do not include a turn- around area can serve up to five or six homes. When a temporary dead -end street is created (a street that will be extended at a later date), the use of a temporary turnaround is necessary. Curb, if used, should be terminated before entrance to the turnaround. Such dead ends generally should be barricaded to prevent vehicles from leaving the street. The design of turning radii for turnarounds should consider the following: • The large delivery trucks common 30 years ago are little used today as most buyers carry their purchases and smaller ve- hicles make any remaining deliveries. • The predominant user of the turnaround is the private auto- mobile larger vehicles account for a small percentage of users. Design Considerations 49 Figure 2 -26: Off-center turnaround. 50 Residential Streets • There is a trend toward small vehicles many small cars (sub- compacts) require a turning radius of only 17 feet. • Modern emergency vehicles require smaller turning radii than older vehicles. Q • School buses normally do not use cul -de -sacs. 1- w JU O 0 cn J 2 w w 2 u_Q = • a � z F . F— O z t- w • w 0 0I- w w 1 0 co w z O ~ Use of turnaround areas for snow storage should not be a major consideration since cul -de -sacs receive low priority for plowing within the overall street system. Further, snow can be stored in the right -of -way outside the pavement or on the edge of front lawns. The recommended minimum radius for the paved area of a circular turnaround is 30 feet (Figure 2 -25). Such a radius is suf- ficient to accommodate both larger passenger cars that require a 30 -foot radius and smaller cars that require a much smaller turn- around area. Smaller trucks or fire equipment requiring a turning radius of 40 feet may have to complete one backing -up movement 22' -24' to negotiate a 30 -foot turnaround. An off - center turnaround cre- ates visual variety and improves turning ease for the driver (Figure Figure 2 -25: A 30 -foot radius is 2 -26). recommended for a circular Communities should discourage paved turnaround radii of 40 turnaround. feet or greater because they create large, unattractive expanses of pavement that are expensive to maintain and contribute need- lessly to stormwater runoff. (Large snowfall amounts should not be used as an excuse to make these paved areas larger.) To mitigate the problems associated with extensively paved areas, communi- ties may consider the use of center islands but should provide adequate maneuver space —a minimum of 20 feet— around the island (Figure 2 -27a). Developers should keep in mind that grassed or landscaped center islands require maintenance. Since most municipalities are reluctant to accept additional maintenance re- sponsibility, homeowners associations usually maintain center islands. In any event, islands should be designed with low -main- tenance landscaping material to reduce costs. One option for expediting turning movements is to make the 22' -24' street pavement wider at the rear of the center island. (Figure 2- 27b). Another turnaround option includes using the center of the turnaround for parking. The use of T- or Y- shaped turnarounds requires all vehicles to make a backing -up movement. This inconvenience can be justified if traffic volume on the turnaround is particularly low, as on a cul- de -sac serving 10 or fewer homes with driveways. The advantage of the T- or Y- shaped turnarounds is their requirement for smaller paved areas. They conserve land, reduce construction and main- tenance costs, and permit greater flexibility in land planning and the siting of homes. The recommended dimensions for the T- or Y -type turnaround are 60 feet by 20 feet (Figure 2 -28). Calcula- tions reveal that the turnarounds' dimensions yield a paved area only 43 percent as large as the smallest (30 -foot radius) circular z Figure 2 -27: Circular turnarounds with center islands. Figure 2 -28: T- and Y- shaped turnarounds. a 60' 22' -24' 60' b 22' -24' turnaround. While the T- and Y- shaped turnarounds are limited in their applications, they are an important option for particularly low- volume cul -de -sacs. Another turnaround option is the auto court, which is a court- yard surrounded with parking. The area functions as a parking area but, with attractive landscaping and paving, can be made into a neighborhood amenity (Figure 2 -29a). Another possibility is an "eyebrow" street, which is a small loop that functions as an access street and parking area and usually incorporates landscaped is- lands (Figure 2 -29b). Regardless of turning space dimensions, parked vehicles reduce available turning space. Parking restrictions, signing, and enforce- ment may at times be desirable. The recommended right -of -way for circular turnarounds is a radius 10 feet greater than the paved area. Therefore, a paved radius of 30 feet should have a 40 -foot right -of -way radius. For T- or Y- shaped turnarounds, the right -of -way should extend 10 feet from the edge of the street pavement. Design Considerations 51 Figure 2 -29: Auto court and "eyebrow" 52 Residential Streets a b Special Vehicle Turning Requirements for Cul -de -Sacs In decreasing frequency of use, the special vehicles that use resi- dential streets are refuse packers, delivery trucks, snow plows, moving vans, and fire trucks. Utility service vehicles such as elec- tric, gas, telephone, and cable television trucks are either pick -up trucks or vans. Consideration of individual vehicle characteristics and use alternatives helps identify appropriate facilities and di- mensions for different situations. E 77 Emergency Vehides The arrival of fire equipment, the least frequently dispatched large vehicle, is time - critical. Fire department drivers and crews are trained to relate addresses to access routes within their jurisdic- tion. It is unusual for fire equipment to enter a dead -end roadway mistakenly. The likelihood of erroneous entry is further dimin- ished by appropriate street signs that advise of a dead end. Newly developing single - family residential areas have little need for large equipment. Oversized trucks such as a hook and ladder typically do not respond to fire calls in single - family residential areas, and pumpers and ladder trucks — particularly when pur- chased for use in commercial or multifamily areas — normally require turning radii that exceed dead -end turnaround dimen- sions. Consequently, many communities are beginning to use smaller -sized trucks or ordinary trucks on which special equip- ment can be mounted. In suburban residential areas, the high cost of specially constructed fire trucks, their frequently limited ma- neuverability, and their high maintenance costs have been accel- erating the trend toward the use of scaled -down vehicles with small turning radii. Some older fire equipment may have a turning radius as great as 50 or 55 feet. In any reasonably dimensioned dead end, it is impractical for older fire equipment to reverse direction without backing movements. Newer trucks, especially conversions from major manufacturers' commercial -line trucks, have smaller turn- ing radii — generally in the 30- to 40 -foot range. When fire trucks must reverse direction quickly, they rely on the accompanying firefighters for guidance and encounter few maneuvering problems and little loss of time. Responding to a fire is time - critical while leaving is not. When communities design large numbers of cul -de -sacs or other dead -end turnarounds, they should consider the acquisition of fire equipment sized to fit the residential areas. It is more economical to purchase trucks that fit a community's streets than to build all streets to meet the needs of infrequently used trucks. Ambulance or emergency medical service is even more time - critical than fire equipment an ambulance must arrive at the scene promptly and often transport a patient to a hospital. As is the case with fire equipment, communities should purchase ve- hicles that fit the streets rather than design streets to meet the needs of particular equipment. Moving Vans Usually tractor - trailer trucks, moving vans use dead -end streets only infrequently. Their drivers maneuver the vehicles to achieve optimum position for loading or unloading. Further, moving vans often carry helpers to assist the drivers in maneuvering the truck, enabling the driver to turn the vehicle without significant prob- lems in relatively tight spaces. Design Considerations 53 54 Residential Streets Snow Plows Since snow plowing in turnarounds requires maneuvering almost regardless of the size of the plowing equipment used, plowing should not become a ruling design consideration. Minor residen- z tial streets requiring snow plowing are sometimes cleared satis- = z factorily by equipment smaller than is generally appropriate for Ct arterial streets and highways. In fact, snow removal on minor 6 v residential streets is often unnecessary except in heavy snow 0 0 areas. 0 w = Refuse Packers co LL Refuse packers usually operate from residence to residence at w 0 walking speeds. Turning radii for modern refuse trucks range from 28.5 feet to 35 feet. Accordingly, a turnaround radius of 35 feet would be needed to accommodate a complete turn without back - co a ing up. Pavement radii in excess of 40 feet are wasteful. Although i . = -. w the turning radii of some older refuse packers may be as wide as z '– 50 to 57 feet depending upon make and model, such turning re- z O quirements should not be used to justify excessively large turna- i rounds. For these large refuse haulers, some maneuvering with D o the guidance of the loaders may be needed to reverse direction in 0 cn almost any reasonably designed turnaround, especially if cars are o F parked along it. At walking speeds and with the assistance of = 0 drivers' aides, backing movements should pose no problem on a I p cul -de -sac. Some communities now use small loading vehicles for LI z house -to -house refuse collection to permit more efficient use of v cn expensive refuse - packing vehicle time — possibly creating a trend P toward such operations. Clearly, turning requirements for refuse z collection equipment are not controlling design factors. Cul -de -Sac Length Sources in the literature vary widely in their recommendations for maximum cul -de -sac length, but the reasons given for the various dimensions (such as minimizing inconvenience to deliv- ery people) are not convincing. The general wisdom, however, sug- gests some limits on cul -de -sac lengths. As the street gets longer, properties accessible from only one direction become more iso- lated and difficult to reach. Moreover, the cul -de -sac ceases to be a street that provides access to a few properties and instead as- sumes the function of a higher -order street (subcollector or collec- tor). To reap the benefits of cul -de- sacs —such as reduced traffic in residential areas, the opportunity to downscale the size of the street, and the opportunity to create more intimate neighbor- hoods— communities must limit the number of vehicles using the street. In general, traffic volume and the number of housing units Figure 2 -30: Shared driveways. should be the factors that determine cul -de -sac length. A street with houses on 100 - foot -wide lots can function well for a greater length than a street with 50 -foot lots. For 100 - foot -wide house lots, a street of 20 houses would result in a 1,000- foot -long street. For 50- foot -wide house lots, a cul -de -sac should be restricted to a length of approximately 500 feet. Assuming that a cul -de -sac should handle no more than 200 vehicle -trips per day and that each single - family home generates up to eight or 10 vehicle -trips per day, a cul -de -sac should accommodate a maximum of 20 to 25 houses. In some circumstances, including large lots or difficult terrain, lengths longer than 1,000 feet might be appropriate. Shared Driveways One alternative method of serving a few homes is through a shared driveway —paved access that is not built to street standards but is simply a normal residential driveway that extends and branches off to several homes. Privately owned and maintained, a shared driveway does not require a turnaround area at the end of the driveway instead, it simply ends at the last house. The shared driveway can connect to an access street or subcollector at a right angle or, as an extension of a cul -de -sac, connect to the cul -de -sac turnaround (Figure 2 -30). An economical and attractive method of serving up to five or six homes, the shared driveway should be just wide enough for two cars to pass, i.e., approximately 16 feet. Design Considerations 55 1 Jack Pace - Turn - Arounds Page 1 From: Nick Olivas To: Nora Gierloff Date: 6/14/01 8:13AM Subject: Turn - Arounds Nora: z I - ,i.- Z The 1997 Uniform Fire Code, and City Ordinance 1846 address access road requirements, including turn ce g around requirements. v 00 Our ordinance states that the turning radius of fire apparatus access roads shall be approved by the chief. N w The fire department has been consistent over the years calling for a turning radius of 81 feet (dia.), 40.5 w = (radius) not including curb, gutter and sidewalk. We have not insisted on a diameter large enough to accommodate our largest piece of equipment, the w O aerial ladder, rather on one sized to accommodate the engines. g la The Uniform Fire Code states that all dead end fire apparatus access roads in excess of 150 shall be provided with approved provisions for the turning around of fire apparatus. Bearing in mind that this code cn d is a minimum standard, we are not allowed to make modifications to it that are less restrictive. The H W discussion about allowing private access roads up to 200 feet without a turn around is not an option. Z = i- l- 0 . The fire code also states that the required width of fire apparatus access roads shall not be obstructed in w f' any manner including the parking of vehicles. We need 20 feet of unobstructed roadway, as well as g D cul -de -sac or hammerhead turn arounds that are unencumbered by parked vehicles. v O O- The article on residential streets states that oversized vehicles such as ladder trucks typically do not o H respond to fire calls in single family residential areas. This is not true in Tukwila, the aerial is the first due = v in apparatus in the neighborhoods around Station 54, and responds to all residential structure fires. i- i L I 0. Finally, it is the position of The Fire Department that whenever feasible, developers should be required to w Z co construct interconnected streets rather than dead end streets; this would go along way toward ending the U turn around controversy. 0 F- Z Please contact me if you have any questions regarding the preceding comments.

Staff's suggested changes along with other options were presented to the Community Affairs and Parks Committee for consideration on February 27 2001 and April 10, 2001. The Committee accepted Staffs recommendation on all items except L Add a parking standard for internet data centers. Their recommendation to the COW on L was to continue to set case by case parking requirements based on a parking study provided by the developer and reviewed by the Public Works Department as is our current practice. The package was then presented to the City Council Committee of the Whole on April 23, 2001. They concurred with the CAP's recommendations on all items except K. Add internet data centers as allowed or conditional uses in specified zones. The COW chose the option that would allow internet data centers in RC and TUC in addition to the C/LI, LI, HI, MIC/L, MIC/H and TVS Zones that Staff had proposed and CAP had endorsed. PROPOSED CHANGES Following are the 15 remaining code amendments. Each has an explanation of the reasoning behind the change followed by the strikeout/underline code language that reflects the COW's preferred option. The Planning Commission is asked to review the proposed changes and accept them as proposed (Option 1) or recommend to the Council that the proposal be modified (Option 2). A. Change the Floor Area Ratio limitation in LDR to a lot coverage standard The current LDR development standards limit the total floor area of all structures on a lot to 50% of the lot area (TMC 18.10.060). While this is not much of an issue for larger lots it can severely constrain the development of smaller, legally non - conforming lots in areas such as Allentown. A typical 3,000 square foot lot there would be limited to 1,500 square feet of structure including the house as well as garages, sheds, basements and covered porches. An alternative to the current floor area ratio (FAR) regulation would be to limit lot coverage instead. A lot coverage standard of 50% would still preserve half the lot as yards, while allowing additional living space on a second or third story of the house that would not be counted in the formula. See Attachment A for a diagram of the difference between floor area ratio and lot coverage. Following are the code revisions that would be required to implement this change: 18.06.515 Lot coverage. "Lot coverage" means the area of the surface of the subject property ivided by the total covered by all structures site area. C:\Nora's _Files \CODEAMND\ZoneAmen dPC.DOC Np „ L"7�Y'n}`�4'w! %.fir Page 2 The term "lot coverage" is not used in the TMC so changing the definition will not cause any problems. 18.06.330 Floor area ratio. z "Floor area ratio" means the total floor area of a building(s) on a site, exclusive of any specific = E u� The floor area ratio definition would be kept in the code because the RCC Zone also has a 50% v p FAR limitation. cn 0 J = 18.10.060 Basic development standards.

Development within the Residential Commercial The Council briefly discussed the option of changing the RCC standard to lot coverage instead of FAR. The development standards of the two zones are very similar and it might encourage mixed use development if residential uses could be built on the second and third stories without taking square footage away from the ground floor commercial area. Options: 1. Recommend that the Council make the above changes to the definitions and LDR Zone 2. Recommend changes to the proposal a) Choose a lot coverage limitation other than 50% b) Also change the standard in RCC to lot coverage rather than FAR c) Other changes B. Eliminate increased setbacks for the second story of structures in LDR The current LDR development standards require that the first story of a house be set back 20 feet from the front property line and the second story be set back 30 feet (TMC 18.10.060). The C:W ora's _Files \CODEAMND\ZoneAmendPC. DOC Page 3 z setbacks for the second front are 10 feet for the first floor and 15 for the second. This staggered setback requirement often results in a protruding garage and encourages a streetscape of garage doors. By having a single front yard setback builders are more likely to integrate the garage with the front of the house, making it less prominent. Staff's proposal is to have a 20 foot setback for the front and 10 foot setback for the second front in LDR, with no increase for the second story. Porches would still be allowed to be setback 15 feet from the front property line. During their discussion the Council wanted to know what other options were available for control of the design of single family houses. Portland has implemented code changes to encourage entries to face the street and reduce the prominence of garage doors on the streetscape. See Attachment B for Portland's code provisions. Following are the code revisions that would be required to implement this change: 18.10.060 Basic development standards. Development within the LDR district shall conform to the following listed and referenced standards: LDR BASIC DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS Lot area, minimum 6,500 sq. ft. Average lot width (min. 20 ft. street frontage width), minimum 50 feet Floor area ratio for all structures 50% maximum Setbacks to yards (minimum): Front, 1st floor 20 feet Front, decks or porches 15 feet Second front, 1st floor 10 feet : Second front, 2nd floor 15 foot Ei Sides 5 feet ai Rear 10 feet Options: 1. Recommend that the Council make the above changes to LDR setbacks 2. Recommend changes to the proposal a) Change the required setbacks b) Add design controls for LDR similar to Portland's code c) Other changes C. Prohibit the use of cargo containers as storage sheds in residential zones The City has received a number of inquiries from residents and businesses about the possibility of using cargo containers as storage sheds or accessory buildings. These containers are not compatible with residential character due to their size (generally 20 or 40 long by 8 feet wide) and industrial appearance (rectangular boxes made of corrugated metal). See Attachment C for examples of standard sizes. C: Nora's _Files \CODEAMND\ZoneAmendPC.DOC Page 4 The Council recommended banning them from the MUO Zone as well as the LDR, MDR, and HDR Zones that Staff had proposed. However, they also raised the issue that some schools in Tukwila (located in LDR Zoning) store emergency supplies in this type of container. The schools lack other storage space and may be called upon to provide shelter in the case of a natural disaster, so it does serve a public need to station emergency supplies at that location. To implement the change the accessory use sections of the four zones would be amended as follows: X. Greenhouses (noncommercial) and storage sheds not exceeding 1,000 square feet in area. Cargo or shipping containers are not allowed as accessory structures on residential lots. Options: 1. Recommend that the Council make the above change to the LDR, MDR, HDR and MUO Zones 2. Recommend changes to the proposal a) Ban the containers in additional zones b) Ban the containers in LDR only c) Other changes D. Add additional detail to landscape plan requirements The Zoning Code section that sets out the requirements for landscape plan submittal would read as follows under the proposed revision: TMC 18.52.050 Landscape Plan Requirements A. A Washington State licensed landscape architect shall prepare and stamp the landscape plans in accordance with the standards herein. Detailed plans for landscaping and screening shall be submitted with plans for building and site improvements. Included in the plans shall be the type, quantity, spacing and location of plants and materials, typical planting details, and the location of irrigation systems. These two items are typically included in landscape plans and are necessary for Staff to fully evaluate the landscape design. Options: 1. Recommend that the Council make the above changes to the landscape requirements 2. Recommend changes to the proposal a) Add additional items b) Other changes C:\Nora's Files \CODEAMND\ZoneAmendPC.DOC Page 5 .e.�a,� r — u.�.i+:«.:a...w �J 1' ,4. E. Revise the Zoning Code definition of building height to match the Washington State Building Code The current definition of building height listed at 18.06.100 does not give clear guidance for determining the height of buildings on sloping sites. The Washington State Building Code method is widely used and applicable to a wide variety of site conditions. TMC 18.06.100 Building Height. "Building height" means the vertical distance measured from the average elevation of the proposed finished grade around the building to the highest point of a flat roof and to the mean height between eaves and ridge of a pitched roof. Washington State Building Code Height Definition 1. The height of a stepped or terraced building shall be the maximum height of any segment of the building as stated below.

"Building height" means the height of a building as calculated by the method in the Washington State Building Code F. Revise the Zoning Code definition of story to match the Washington State Building Code The current Zoning Code definition of story differs from the definition in the Washington State Building Code in a few key standards. This causes confusion and misunderstandings with applicants when they apply for a building permit and are told that they need to remove a story to comply with the number of stories allowed by their zone. This would not affect the LDR, TUC, HI, MIC/H or TVS Zones as they have specific height limits regardless of the number of stories. TMC 18.06.790 Story. "Story" means that portion of a building included between the upper surface of any floor and the upper surface of the floor next above, except that the topmost story shall be that portion of a building included between the upper surface of the topmost floor and the ceiling or roof above. If the finished floor level directly above a basement is more than twe six feet above grade for more than 2950% of the total perimeter or is twelve feet above grade as defined at any point, such basement shall be considered as a story.

Delete High Tech as a Use Category High tech uses are listed as permitted in eleven of Tukwila's zones as follows: XX. High tech uses including research and development, light assembling, repair or storage of electronic equipment, instruments, or biotechnology with at least 35% office. This phrasing is ambiguous and has led to confusion by applicants as to what is intended by the category. Is light assembling allowed for any product or only electronic equipment? Are each of these uses required to have at least 35% office or only biotechnology? Staff suggests that we delete the high tech category from MUO, 0, NCC, RC, RCM, TUC, C/LI, LI, HI, MIC/H and TVS as it has been deleted from MIC/L because the underlying uses of office, computer software development, electronics repair, light manufacturing, medical laboratories and warehouse storage are called out specifically in the various zones. While a high tech office use would be appropriate in the MUO or 0 zones, light manufacturing would not so the overly broad nature of the high tech category could result in the establishment of incompatible uses.

Add Pawnbrokers as allowed or conditional uses in specified Zones Pawnbrokers are not addressed in Tukwila's Zoning Code and therefore are currently allowed in any zone that permits retail sales. However, pawnbrokers are distinct from other retail uses because they offer loans in exchange for personal property and therefore should be called out as a separate use and specified as allowed or conditional. Two pawnbrokers are currently in operation in the City, both in the NCC Zone. This use is not compatible with the intent of the Neighborhood Commercial Center Zone because it serves a specialized, regional need not an everyday community need. The COW recommended adding pawnbrokers to the list of permitted uses in TUC, C/LI, LI, HI and TVS and conditional uses in RC and RCM Zones. Options: 1. Recommend that the Council make the above changes to add pawnbrokers to the list of permitted and conditional uses 2. Recommend changes to the proposal a) Select different zones to list pawnbrokers as allowed or conditional uses b) Other changes J. Add a definition for Pawnbrokers If the Planning Commission elects to recommend adding pawnbrokers to the listed uses in the Zoning Code the term "pawnbroker" should be defined. Pawnbrokers are distinguished from second hand dealers such as Goodwill by the fact that they offer loans in exchange for goods. To implement the proposed change the following definition would be added to the Zoning Code: I8.06.XXX Pawnbroker. "Pawnbroker is an establishment engaged in the buying or selling of new or secondhand merchandise and offering loans in exchange for personal property. Options: 1. Recommend that the Council make the above change to add a definition for pawnbroker 2. Recommend changes to the definition C:\Nora's _Files \CODEAMN D\ZoneAme ndPC.DOC Page 9 K. Add Internet Data Centers as allowed or conditional uses in specified Zones Tukwila is seeing the rapid development of internet data centers by such companies as Exodus, Globix, AboveNet, Zama Networks, Qwest, HostPro, Verio and Netstream. We have administratively determined that although this use is not called out in the Zoning Code it will be allowed in zones that allow high tech, warehouse storage and telephone exchanges. Given the proliferation and impacts of this new type of use it should be recognized in Tukwila's Zoning Code. Though the use itself, climate - controlled warehouse space for computers with minimal support and security staff, has few direct impacts the HVAC units and emergency power generators can create high noise levels. For efficiency and security the buildings generally have large floor plates with minimal windows or modulation. The use is most appropriate for, and has primarily occurred in industrial zones. However we are seeing interest in locating these uses in commercial zones such as the TUC. The Council wanted to pursue the option of adding internet data centers to the list of permitted uses in the RC, TUC, C/LI, LI, HI, MIC/L, MIC/H and TVS Zones. Options: 1.

Add a definition for Internet Data Centers If the CAP Committee elects to add internet data centers to the listed uses in the Zoning Code the term "internet data center" should be defined in the Code. The following addition would be required: I8.06.XXX Internet Data Center.

Recommend changes to the definition N. Amend the Subdivision Standard for Turnarounds During the rewrite of the Subdivision Code in 1998 the City Council approved a cul -de -sac turnaround standard for single family that was smaller than the standard for multi - family and commercial developments. The Fire Department has stated that since their fire engine requires the same turning radius regardless of the use of the site there should only be one standard. They request that the development standards in the Subdivision Code be amended to show only one turnaround requirement for a 92 foot diameter right -of -way with 81 feet of paving. They think that it is unwise to allow the sidewalk area to be used as part of the turning radius because a fully loaded truck can damage sidewalks and crush utility boxes and vaults. To balance the increased amount of paved surface required by the 81 foot standard Staff is recommending that a 20 foot landscape island be required in the center of the cul -de -sac. The Fire Department has determined that this would not interfere with the turning radius of their fire engines, though it may be damaged by the ladder truck. Under the proposed changes the road standard table in the Subdivision Code would be amended as follows: During its review of these amendments the Council asked for additional information on how other jurisdictions implement Traditional Neighborhood Development goals which include reducing street widths to calm traffic and create more livable streets. Attachment F contains a City of Portland report that explores the balance between the needs of emergency vehicles and residents and makes recommendations for residential pavement and right -of -way widths. Our access road standards are not much different than Portland's, though they allow parking on both sides of the street for that width. Portland's residential cul -de -sac standard calls for an 80 foot R- OW and 70 feet of paving. C:\Nora's _Files \CODEAMND\ZoneAmendPC. DOC Page 11 Options: 1.

Remove the fee for Street Vacations from the Zoning Code The auditor has requested that we remove the fee for street vacations from the schedule in the Application Fees Chapter of the Zoning Code (18.88). DCD does not accept applications or collect fees for street vacations so they should not be listed in the Zoning Code. Vacations are a Public Works responsibility and the logical place to list the fee amount would be in the Street and Alley Vacation Procedure chapter (11.60). Public Works is currently updating the Vacation Procedure Chapter and will insert the fee amount. 18.88.010 Application fees.

Purpose. These standards: • Together with the street- facing facade and garage standards, ensure that there is a physical and visual connection between the living area of the residence and the street; • Enhance public safety for residents and visitors and provide opportunities for community interaction; • Ensure that the pedestrian entrance is visible or clearly identifiable from the street by its orientation or articulation; and • Ensure that pedestrians can easily find the main entrance, and so establish how to enter the residence. B. Where these standards apply. The standards of this section apply to houses, attached houses, manufactured homes, and duplexes in the R10 through R2.5 zones. Where a proposal is for an alteration or addition to existing development, the standards of this section apply only to the portion being altered or added. Development on flag lots or on lots that slope up or down from the street with an average slope of 20 percent or more is exempt from these standards. In addition, subdivisions and PUDs that received preliminary plan approval between September 9, 1990, and September 9, 1995, are exempt from these standards. C. Location. At least one main entrance for each structure must: 1. Be within 8 feet of the longest street- facing wall of the dwelling unit; and 2. Either: a. Face the street. See Figure 110 -4; b. Be at an angle of up to 45 degrees from the street; or c. Open onto a porch. See Figure 110 -5. The porch must: (1) Be at least 25 square feet in area; (2) Have at least one entrance facing the street; and (3) Have a roof that is: • No more than 12 feet above the floor of the porch; and • At least 30 percent solid. This standard may be met by having 30 percent of the porch area covered with a solid roof, or by having the entire area covered with a trellis or other open material if no more than 70 percent of the area of the material is open. 33.110.232 Street - Facing Facades in R10 through R2.5 Zones A. Purpose. This standard: • Together with the main entrance and garage standards, ensures that there is a visual connection between the living area of the residence and the street; • Enhances public safety by allowing people to survey their neighborhood from inside their residences; and • Provides a more pleasant pedestrian environment by preventing large expanses of blank facades along streets.

Bray, P.E. Karen Carlson Rabiner, P.E. Transportation Engineering & Development October 18, 1991 (Revised August 1, 1994) Introduction Development Standards Recommended Standards INTRODUCTION Over the past ninety years, it has been Portland's policy to provide maintenance services on only those local streets built to City standards. Those standards were developed to ensure that streets accepted for City maintenance meet necessary safety and durability requirements. Streets in new subdivisions and other raw land developments are built to city standards at the expense of the developers, who then pass the cost along to new home buyers. Construction of City streets in existing neighborhoods has been accomplished through the city- managed Local Improvement District program, with the costs being assessed upon the adjacent, benefiting properties. Of the approximately 1200 miles of local streets in Portland, virtually all were improved through these two approaches. In Portland today, only about 80 miles of public rights -of -way used as neighborhood streets remain unimproved. Many of the residents of these neighborhoods feel that the City offers too few improvement options, that the street standards are excessive, and that streets built to these standards are too costly. Added to those concerns is growing public dissatisfaction with high traffic speeds and volumes on streets already improved to city standards. Street drainage, erosion control and water pollution issues have emerged in the Tualatin River Basin, and are a growing concern across the city. In 1988, a citizens committee was created to look at and search for solutions to the problems associated with unimproved neighborhood streets. Through a committee, a consultant was http: / /www.trans.ci.portland.or.us/PDOT_ SERVICES /local_street_improvements.htm City of Portland Page 1 of 8 Attachment F 1. Allow additional street 4.

Allow reduced dead -end street turnaround sizes .. ..,,.,, uta retai,... d to "brainstorm" new solutions to traditional neighborhood street problems. At the suggestion of the consultant, the committee recommended that the City develop new standards for City - maintained residential streets. In May 1990, the City began development of new standards for City - maintained residential streets. This report summarizes the development of those new residential street standards. The standards were adopted by the Portland City Council on July 31, 1991. DEVELOPMENT OF STANDARDS Within the body of literature pertaining to the role of the neighborhood street and its impact on the surrounding environment, the 1980 Bucks County, Pennsylvania publication, Performance Streets, reflected a new and substantially different view of the purposes of the various elements of residential street design. That document states: In 1990, the National Association of Home Builders, the Urban Land Institute, and the American Society of Civil Engineers joined to publish another milestone in urban street design, Residential Streets, which advocates: • Designing to minimize traffic volumes and speeds in residential areas • Properly scaled streets • Streets planned to avoid excessive stormwater runoff • Streets which can serve as meeting places and centers of community activity In a report prepared by the consulting firm of Cogan Sharpe Cogan, it was recommended that City staff "...begin the effort to establish a performance evaluation approach to determine appropriate street improvement standards, while remaining acceptable for maintenance." • "Whether street standards were intuitively based or adapted from highway design, what seemed to have been overlooked was that local residential streets are part and parcel of the neighborhood they serve. People live on them. It would seem desirable, therefore, not solely to move traffic safely and efficiently, but to see that the needs of people for a residential neighborhood that is quiet, safe, pleasant, convenient and sociable are met as well."

The challenge was to find a way to bring them to reality in Portland. The citizens committee's recommendation to develop performance standards was the • beginning. The City retained a consultant to research the existing standards of several other communities for purposes of comparison, and then to propose new performance -based standards in an interim report. Transportation could then evaluate and refine those standards, secure public comment, and modify them as needed, before final City Council approval of implementation. In March 1991, the consultant completed the required interim report. Below are the consultant's key suggestions, followed by Transportation's recommendations. 1. Allow additional street width variations. • Response: Transportation concurs with this recommendation. The City's existing neighoborhood street standards are designed primarily as a traffic facility comprised of two travel lanes, plus either two parking lanes, one parking lane, or no parking, yielding widths of 32, 28, or 20 feet, respectively. Transportation proposes (a) reducing the current 32 -foot standard to 26 feet, and (b) reducing the current 28 -foot standard to 20 feet. The problems of high speeds and through, non - neighborhood traffic have been the source of continuing complaints from throughout the community. Streets designed to existing standards accommodate higher travel speeds. By virtue of the appearance of the 28 or 32 -foot streets as wide, inviting thoroughfares, they may also be used as a short-cut by non - neighborhood traffic. In addition to being considered costly to construct, the existing standards produce excessive stormwater runoff, require wide rights -of -way, are wasteful of natural resources, and demand clearing of many trees and other vegetation. An approach which reduces all of these problems, and one advocated in the publication Residential Streets, is building narrower streets with only a single travel lane. These "queuing streets ", intended for two -way traffic, are comprised of a single traffic lane and a parking lane on one or both sides. When two vehicles meet on a queuing street, one of the vehicles must yield by pulling over into a vacant segment of the adjacent parking lane. (Of interest is the fact that many of the City's older local streets range from 18 to 28 feet wide and, as such, are queuing streets.) http: / /www.trans.ci.portland. or.us /PDOT_SERVICES /local_street improvements.htm 5/4/2001 Local Street Improvements Acceptable operation of a queuing street occurs only where there are occasional breaks in the curbside parking approximately forty feet in length to permit the yielding vehicle to pull over. These breaks are ordinarily available where ample off -street parking for residents is available, and where on -street parking by residents or guests is only occasional. Breaks in parking are also provided by individual driveways, combinations of driveways, and intersections. These conditions are commonly satisfied in areas Comprehensive Plan Single Dwelling Residential Zoned, R5 (5000 square feet per dwelling unit) through RF (2 acres per dwelling unit). In more densely -zoned areas, queuing streets may be inappropriate because of inadequate off -street parking capacity, or because of differing emergency response requirements. The City currently requires all streets in new subdivisions to be built to accommodate on -street parking. The City requires through streets to be 32 feet wide, which permits two travel lanes plus on -street parking on both sides of the street. For either cul -de- sacs, or streets serving 30 or fewer dwellings, or one- way streets, the required dimension is 28 feet, which permits two travel lanes and a parking lane on one side only. It is proposed that through streets be built with a single travel lane with parking on one or both sides, for widths of 20 or 26 feet, respectively. It is also recommended that the decision to provide a street with two -side versus one -side parking be at the discretion of the developer of the subdivision or of the property owners funding construction of the street. The proposal to reduce the widths of through streets differs from that for cul -de -sacs, where it is proposed that the 20 and 26 -foot widths be permitted to be further reduced to 18 and 24 feet, respectively. The two foot reduction, termed the "cul -de -sac compromise ", would be constructed only if requested by those funding the street improvement. Although the additional two - foot reduction in travel lane width reduces impervious surfaces and saves natural resources, it also further reduces the ease of operation between adjacent parked and moving vehicles. Because a cul -de -sac serves only those who are directly accessed by it, the two -foot reduction may be a desirable element for those residing on the street. Because the site of a fire emergency can be accessed from either direction on a through street, the Portland Fire Bureau has endorsed the proposed reduced street widths for through streets, but cul -de -sac streets present a problem for fire fighting operations. Hydrants are normally located at the intersection, and the first fire apparatus responding to an emergency pauses to connect its hoses to that hydrant. The truck then moves up the http: / /www.trans.ci.portland.or.us/PDOT_ SERVICES /local_street_improvements.htm Page 4 of 8 5/4 /2001 Local Street Improvements street, with the hose being drawn out from the rear, "snaking" out over the lane. If the street is narrow enough for only a single travel lane, such as with a queuing street, the second apparatus would have to drive over the charged hoses, risking greater damage or injury. Instead, on "short" cul -de -sacs, the second vehicle will park at the intersection and needed equipment can be carried to the scene by the firefighters. On longer cul -de -sac streets, fire fighting capabilities may be seriously compromised if all equipment must be hand - carried to the emergency scene from the second or third apparatus. In addition, long, tightly curved, narrow cul -de -sacs with on -street parking may be physically inaccessible to fire apparatus. For that reason, except with the Fire Bureau Chief's approval of measures designed to facilitate fire protection capabilities, it is proposed that newly - platted cul -de -sacs greater than 300 feet in length be built as a "fire lane ", with two unobstructed travel lanes and, if needed, additional parking lanes. It is proposed that curbs be required, except where unsuitable or inappropriate, on all through streets. Curbs are used on City streets to: a) facilitate sidewalk construction; b) confine vehicles to the roadway; c) control on -street parking; d) protect adjacent landscaping; e) channel street drainage; and f) accommodate roof drains. Circumstances under which curbs may be omitted may include, for example, where roadside drainage swales are necessary for water quality control purposes, or where City- adopted neighborhood plans provide the framework and rationale for uncurbed "lane" treatments. 2. Allow right -of -way widths to coincide with street widths. • Response: Transportation concurs with this recommendation, and proposes reducing the right -of- way widths required for queuing streets in Plan Single Dwelling Residential Zones R7, R10, R20 and RF. Retain sufficient right -of -way width in zone R5 to accommodate the potential of sidewalk/planting strip construction on both sides of the street. Dedication of rights -of -way greatly in excess of those needed to accommodate specific street widths is costly and unreasonable. Proposed right -of -way widths are shown on Page 8. These reduced widths permit greater utilization of privately developable land, while maintaining sufficient space for utility installations and sidewalks. 3. Allow reduced dead -end street turnaround sizes. • Response: Transportation concurs with this http: / /www.trans.ci.portland.or.us/PDOT_ SERVICES /local_street_improvements.htm Page 5 of 8 5/4/2001 Local Street Improvements recommendation, and proposes adoption of a reduced diameter of 70 feet for all newly - platted dead -end streets. 5. Reduce minimum required separated sidewalk width to four feet. • Response: Transportation concurs with this recommendation, but only in Comprehensive Plan Single Dwelling Zones R7, R10, R20, and RF. The current minimum required width of a sidewalk in a residential area is five feet. Where a sidewalk is built adjacent to the curb without an intervening planting strip, pedestrians are forced to share the sidewalk with utility poles, signs, mail boxes, etc. A five -foot width is needed to provide space for pedestrian use around those obstacles. Where a sidewalk is built separate from the curb, the sidewalk is not similarly obstructed, and a four -foot width is sufficient for low volume pedestrian http: / /www. trans. ci. portland. or. us /PDOT SERVICES /local_street_improvements.htm WINAI1T4 ;NCM =[1 .tkYN - t✓M.IV'Y� Page 6 of 8 The current standard diameter of all dead -end street turnarounds is 90 feet, and was originally developed to allow the largest fire apparatus to turn around without requiring a backing maneuver. According to Residential z • Streets, "vehicle types that rarely use the street should = not be a determining factor in the design. When weighed 6 ce against the disadvantages of an extensive paved area - poor aesthetics, higher maintenance and installation o costs, increased stormwater runoff, and the significant c limits that large dimensional requirements place on co in sound land planning - the minor inconvenience —I '— experienced by some drivers in reversing direction is not N w w an important consideration." Bucks County's 2 Performance Streets states, "Cul -de -sac turnarounds should be designed no larger than necessary to permit a free turning of the largest service vehicles regularly c serving the neighborhood." - z � 4. Allow mountable curbs to be used in turnaround areas. z o LLI w • Response: Transportation concurs with this recommendation. o cn D F- Once homes are built on the property adjacent to a cul- = w de -sac, the majority of the curb line within the cul -de- � sac is occupied by driveways. Permitting mountable "-- z curb to be constructed at the time of initial construction w U) of the cul -de -sac will preclude the need to tear out and p -±- replace the curbing with driveway approaches. z Mountable curbs are not permitted elsewhere because they: a) permit and may encourage easy vehicular access to the front yard area of a residence, in conflict with City planning regulations; and b) permit easy vehicular access to the sidewalk area, which can cause sidewalk damage for which the property owner is liable. 5/4/2001 astA Fithamt Local Street Improvements Legal usage found in low density areas R7 through RF.

Agencies With Jurisdiction: Washington State Department of Ecology Summary of Primary Impacts: 1. Earth - This is a non - project proposal. The change from a floor area ratio to a lot coverage standard could potentially increase the amount of impervious surface in the LDR zone. The increase in paved diameter required for residential cul -de -sacs could also increase impervious surface, though that is lessened by the required landscape island. 2. Air - This is a non - project proposal and no air impacts are expected. z U : 00 0) 0 CO � 03 u-: w g Q I �- i z � F = O . z I w :3 CI ui C) -- o F-. .w W ' nc 0 . .. z w 0 z 3. Water — This is a non - project proposal and does not affect Tukwila's adoption of the standards in the King County Surface Water Design Manual. 4. Plants - This is a non - project proposal. Amendment D would add additional detail to Tukwila's landscape plan requirements. 5. Animals — The proposed amendments will affect areas along the Green River shoreline, habitat of the endangered Chinook salmon. However, no changes to Tukwila's Shoreline Regulations are proposed. 6. Energy and Natural Resources - This is a non - project proposal and should not affect energy usage. 7. Environmental Health - Internet data centers have backup power generators and HVAC equipment that can be noisy. The proposed amendments do not change the fact that these facilities are being built in Tukwila, they only formalize the zones in which they are permitted. Tukwila would continue to enforce its Noise Ordinance to control auditory impacts. 8. Land and Shoreline Use - The amendments would affect parcels with sensitive areas but would not change the Sensitive Area Ordinance or Shoreline Regulations. The two existing pawnbrokers in Tukwila would be made non - conforming by amendment I. This will help to preserve the desired neighborhood commercial character along Tukwila International Boulevard. 9. Housing - The proposal will not result in a change to the housing supply. Amendments A and B would allow for somewhat larger single family houses to be built, and would have their most visible impact on small non - conforming infill lots . 10. Aesthetics - The proposed amendments would not affect design review or screening requirements so no aesthetic impacts are expected. 11. Light and Glare - This is a non - project proposal and no impacts are expected. 12. Recreation - The proposal will not affect recreational facilities. 13. Historical and Cultural Preservation - The proposed amendments should not have any impacts on historic or cultural sites. 14. Transportation - No transportation related impacts are expected from the amendments. 15. Public Services - This is a non - project proposal and no impacts are expected. 16. Utilities - Internet data centers are high electricity users. However the proposed amendments do not change the fact that these facilities are being built in Tukwila, they only formalize the zones in which they are permitted.

BACKGROUND REQUESTED ACTION City of Tukwlla Steven M Mullet, Mayor Department of Community Development Steve Lancaster, Director TO: Mayor Mullet Committee of the Whole FROM: Steve Lancaster, DCD Director ?f RE: Proposed Zoning Code Amen ents DATE: April 19, 2001 Staff grouped 16 proposed amendments to the Zoning Code together and presented them to the CAP for consideration on February 27th. The Committee accepted Staff's recommendation (italicized in that memo) on all items except items L Add a parking standard for internet data centers and N Amend the Subdivision Standard for turnarounds. Their recommendation to the COW on L is to continue to base parking requirements on a parking study provided by the developer and reviewed by the Public Works Department as is our current practice (option 1). After further consideration of the turnaround issue on April 10 and discussion with the Fire Department the Committee is recommending to the COW that the subdivision code be amended as proposed by Staff (option 2). Review the CAP's recommendation for each of the proposed code changes and either forward the proposal to the Planning Commission for consideration or decline to consider the change.

The topics range from minor housekeeping or clarification to policy decisions about allowed uses and development standards. Each proposed amendment has a brief explanation followed by a list of options. Staff's recommended option is italicized. A. Change the Floor Area Ratio limitation in LDR to a lot coverage standard The current LDR development standards limit the floor area of all structures on a lot to 50% of the lot area (TMC 18.10.060). While this is not an issue for larger lots it can severely constrain the development of smaller, legally non - conforming lots in areas such as Allentown. A typical 3,000 square foot lot there would be limited to 1,500 square feet of structure including the house as well as garages, sheds, basements and covered porches. A lot coverage standard of 50% would still preserve half the lot as yards, while allowing additional living space on a second or third story of the house. 1. Decline to consider the proposal 2. Forward the proposal unchanged to the COW 3. Recommend changes to the proposal before forwarding it to the COW a) Choose a lot coverage limitation other than 50% B. Eliminate increased setbacks for the second story of structures in LDR C:1Nora's_ Files \CODEAMND\ZoneAmendCAP.DOC Steven M. Mullet, Mayor The current LDR development standards require that the first story of a house be set back 20 feet from the front property line and the second story be set back 30 feet (TMC 18.10.060). The Page 1 a s15•i�:�.; 6300 Southcenter Boulevard, Suite #100 • Tukwila, Washington 98188 • Phone: 206 - 431 -3670 • Fax: 206 - 431 -3663 '. �L: '::..,- k�•is= f %ris4.+�:`'i' =..; > a%3�;+:.ca'iw:ii;= :.Y. . ... ,«.mxe.x�.aw3.t Options: setbacks for the second front are 10 feet for the first floor and 15 for the second. This staggered setback requirement often results in a protruding garage and encourages a streetscape of garage doors. By having a single front yard setback builders are more likely to integrate the garage with the front of the house, making it less prominent. Staff's proposal is to have a 20 foot setback for the front and 10 foot setback for the second front in LDR, with no increase for the second story. Porches would still be allowed to be setback 15 feet from the front property line. 1. Decline to consider changes to the front yard LDR setbacks 2. Forward the proposal to eliminate the additional second story setback to the COW 3. Recommend changes to the proposal before forwarding it to the COW a) Change the second story setback to 25 feet on the front and 12.5 feet on the second front b) Change the first story setback to 30 feet on the front and 15 feet on the second front c) Other changes C. Prohibit the use of cargo containers as storage sheds in residential zones The City has received a number of inquiries from residents about the possibility of using old cargo containers as storage' sheds or accessory buildings on residential lots. These containers are not compatible' with residential character due to their 'size (generally 40 by 8 feet) and industrial appearance (rectangular boxes made of corrugated metal). Staff recommends that the accessory use sections of the LDR, MDR and HDR Zones be amended as follows: 5. Greenhouses (noncommercial) and storage sheds not exceeding 1,000 square feet in area. Cargo or shipping containers are not allowed as accessory structures. Options: 1. Decline to consider the proposal 2. Forward the proposal to ban the use of cargo containers in residential zones to the COW 3. Recommend changes to the proposal before forwarding it to the COW a) Ban the containers in additional zones b) Ban the containers in LDR only c) Other changes D. Add additional detail to landscape plan requirements The Zoning Code section that sets out the requirements for landscape plan submittal would read as follows under the proposed revision: TMC 18.52.050 Landscape Plan Requirements C:\Nora's_ Files \CODEAMND\ZoneAmendCAP.DOC Page 2 Building Code A. A Washington State licensed landscape architect shall prepare and stamp the landscape plans in accordance with the standards herein. Detailed plans for landscaping and screening shall be submitted with plans for building and site improvements. Included in the plans shall be the type, quantity, spacing and location of plants and materials, typical plantine details, and the location of irrigation systems. These two items are typically included in landscape plans and are necessary for Staff to fully ce W evaluate the landscape design. 6 D J U UO U ° . Options: w J = H 1.

"Building height" means the height of a building as calculated by the method in the Washington State Building Code F. Revise the Zoning Code definition of story to match the Washington State Building Code The current Zoning Code definition of story differs from the definition in the Washington State Building Code in a few key standards. This causes confusion and misunderstandings with applicants when they apply for a building permit and are told that they need to remove a story to Page 4 21 comply with the number of stories allowed by their zone. This would not affect the LDR, TUC, HI, MIC/H or TVS Zones as they have specific height limits regardless of the number of stories. Under the proposed changes the definition of story would read as follows: TMC 18.06.790 Story. "Story" means that portion of a building included between the upper surface of any floor and the upper surface of the floor next above, except that the topmost story shall be that portion of a building included between the upper surface of the topmost floor and the ceiling or roof above. If the finished floor level directly above a basement is more than twe six feet above grade for more than 2850% of the total perimeter or is twelve feet above grade as defined at any point, such basement shall be considered as a story. Options: 1. Decline to consider the proposal 2. Forward the proposal unchanged to the COW 3. Recommend changes to the proposal before forwarding it to the COW a) Select different cutoff standards (4 feet above grade or 35% of perimeter) b) Other changes G. Delete High Tech as a Use Category High tech uses are listed as permitted in ten of Tukwila's zones as follows: XX. High tech uses including research and development, light assembling, repair or storage of electronic equipment, instruments, or biotechnology with at least 35% office. This phrasing is ambiguous and has led to confusion by applicants as to what is intended by the category. Is light assembling allowed for any product or only electronic equipment? Are each of these uses required to have at least 35% office or only biotechnology? Staff suggests that we delete the high tech category from MUO, O, NCC, RC, RCM, TUC, C/LI, LI, HI, and MIC/H as it has been deleted from MIC/L because the underlying uses of office, light manufacturing, medical laboratories and warehouse storage are called out specifically in the various zones. While a high tech office use would be appropriate in the MUO or 0 zones, light manufacturing would not so the overly broad nature of the high tech category could result in the establishment of incompatible uses.

Two pawn shops are in operation in the City, both in the NCC Zone. Pawn shops are a distinctive use because they offer 1 loans in exchange for personal property and therefore should be called out as a separate use and z 1.- specified as allowed or conditional.

Add a definition for Pawn Shops If the CAP Committee elects to add pawn shops to the listed uses in the Zoning Code the term "pawn shop" should be defined. Pawn shops are distinguished from second hand dealers such as Goodwill by the fact that they offer loans in exchange for goods.

Add Internet Data Centers as allowed or conditional uses in specified Zones Tukwila is seeing the rapid development of internet data centers by such companies as Exodus, Globix, AboveNet, Zama Networks, HostPro, Verio and Netstream. We have administratively determined that although this use is not called out in the Zoning Code it will be allowed in zones that allow high tech, warehouse storage and telephone exchanges. Given the proliferation and impacts of this new type of use it should be recognized in Tukwila's Zoning Code. Though the use itself, climate- controlled warehouse space for computers with minimal support and security staff, has few direct impacts the HVAC units and emergency power generators can create high noise levels. For efficiency and security the buildings generally have large floor plates with minimal windows or modulation. The use is most appropriate for, and has primarily occurred in industrial zones. However we are seeing interest in locating these uses in commercial zones such as the TUC..' Options: 1. Decline to add intemet data centers to the listed uses in the Zoning Code 2. Recommend to the COW that internet data centers be allowed uses in C /LI, LI, HI, MIC /L, MIC /H and TVS 3. Recommend to the COW that intemet data centers be allowed uses in RC, TUC, C/LI, LI, HI, MIC/L, MIC/H and TVS 4. Recommend changes to the proposal before forwarding it to the COW a) Select different zones to list intemet data centers as allowed or conditional uses b) Other changes L. Add a parking standard for Internet Data Centers The Zoning Code does not address the parking requirements for internet data centers. They typically are large facilities, ranging from 50,000 to 500,000 square feet, though they have relatively low employee and customer densities. We have used information on the parking requirements of existing intemet data centers to administratively set a requirement of 1 parking space per 1000 usable square feet of building. Codifying this requirement would provide greater predictability for companies developing this type of building. Options: C:\Nora's_ Files \CODEAMND\ZoneAmendCAP.DOC 1. Decline to consider the proposed change to parking standards 2. Recommend a 1 space per 1000 sf requirement for data centers to the COW 3.

Add a definition for Internet Data Centers If the CAP Committee elects to add internet data centers to the listed uses in the Zoning Code the term " internet data center" should be defined. Internet Data Center "Internet data center" means a secure, climate controlled facility with emergency backup power that contains a large number of computer switches and servers (usually Web servers) for one or more companies. Options: 1. Decline to add the definition to the Zoning Code 2. Recommend to the COW that the definition be added as listed 3. Recommend changes to the definition before forwarding it to the, COW N. Amend the Subdivision Standard for Turnarounds During the rewrite of the Subdivision Code in 1998 the City Council approved a cul -de -sac turnaround standard for single family that was smaller than the standard for multi- family and commercial developments. The Fire Department has stated that since their largest fire truck may respond to any call, all turnarounds should be sized for its turning,radius regardless of the use of the site. They request that the development standards in the Subdivision Code be amended to show only one turnaround requirement for a 92 foot diameter right -of -way with 81 feet of paving. To balance the increased amount of paved surface required by the 81 foot standard Staff is recommending that a 20 foot landscape island be required in the center of the cul -de -sac. The Fire Department has determined that this would not interfere with the turning radius of their equipment.

Remove the fee for Street Vacations from the Zoning Code The auditor has requested that we remove the fee for street vacations from the schedule in the Application Fees Chapter of the Zoning Code (18.88). DCD does not accept applications or collect fees for street vacations so they should not be listed in the Zoning Code.

Change the Zoning Code to allow structures over the right -of -way Currently the Tukwila Zoning Code does not allow for structures to be built over street right -of- way similar to the Convention Center or the Nordstrom skybridge in Seattle. The proposed code change would provide a process for developers to request waivers from the setback provisions of the code. TMC 18.50.0XX Structures over R -O -W A developer who controls parcels on either side of a public right -of -way may request approval to bridge the street with a structure as a Type 2 special permission decision.

These include: providing clearer definitions for the types of o F. parking facilities; eliminating stand -alone parking facilities from the M.I.C. area; adopting appropriate Comprehensive Plan policies; and adopting z development regulations that require stand -alone parking to be in structures or located away form street frontage. The Committee voiced general agreement with the approach. Forward to COW. 3. Ball Janik Contract Amendment (Extension) John McFarland explained the amendments to the existing contract. He distributed a revised draft that referred to the objective of light rail service to the Urban Center, rather than the E3 alignment. The Committee voiced their support for the scope of work. John advised that the compensation arrangement ($15,000 per month) would remain in place for the present time, and especially in light of the resumption of activity in Washington D.C. and locally in the past few weeks. If that level of activity diminishes, the compensation clause will be re- negotiated. Forward to COW. 4. Codicaa Farm Property Exchange.

Staff Report to Planning Commission Project Description: City of Tukwila Summary of Primary Impacts: Department of Community Development MEMORANDUM Project Location: This is a non - project proposal, however some of the changes are limited to certain zones and others would have city -wide effects. A set of 15 proposed amendments to the Zoning Code on topics ranging from minor housekeeping or clarification to policy decisions about allowed uses and development standards. Agencies With Jurisdiction: Washington State Department of Ecology 1. Earth - This is a non - project proposal. The change from a floor area ratio to a lot coverage standard could potentially increase the amount of impervious surface in the LDR zone. The increase in paved diameter required for residential cul -de -sacs could also increase impervious surface, though that is lessened by the required landscape island. 2. Air - This is a non - project proposal and no air impacts are expected. Steven M.

Water — This is a non - project proposal and does not affect Tukwila's adoption of the standards in the King County Surface Water Design Manual. 4. Plants - This is a non - project proposal. Amendment D would add additional detail to Tukwila's landscape plan requirements. 5. Animals — The proposed amendments will affect areas along the Green River shoreline, habitat of the endangered Chinook salmon. However, no changes to Tukwila's Shoreline Regulations are proposed. 6. Energy and Natural Resources - This is a non - project proposal and should not affect energy usage. 7. Environmental Health - Internet data centers have backup power generators and HVAC equipment that can be noisy. The proposed amendments do not change the fact that these facilities are being built in Tukwila, they only formalize the zones in which they are permitted. Tukwila would continue to enforce its Noise Ordinance to control auditory impacts. 8. Land and Shoreline Use - The amendments would affect parcels with sensitive areas but would not change the Sensitive Area Ordinance or Shoreline Regulations. The two existing pawnbrokers in Tukwila would be made non - conforming by amendment I. This will help to preserve the desired neighborhood commercial character along Tukwila International Boulevard. 9. Housing - The proposal will not result in a change to the housing supply. Amendments A and B would allow for somewhat larger single family houses to be built, and would have their most visible impact on small non - conforming infill lots . 10. Aesthetics - The proposed amendments would not affect design review or screening requirements so no aesthetic impacts are expected. 11. Light and Glare - This is a non - project proposal and no impacts are expected. 12. Recreation - The proposal will not affect recreational facilities. 13. Historical and Cultural Preservation - The proposed amendments should not have any impacts on historic or cultural sites. 14. Transportation - No transportation related impacts are expected from the amendments. 15. Public Services - This is a non - project proposal and no impacts are expected. 16. Utilities - Internet data centers are high electricity users. However the proposed amendments do not change the fact that these facilities are being built in Tukwila,. they only formalize the zones in which they are permitted.

No TO: Mayor Mullet Community Affairs and Parks Co 'ttee FROM: Nora Gierloff, Associate Planner RE: Proposed Zoning Code Amendme DATE: February 21, 2001 BACKGROUND Staff has grouped 16 amendments to the Zoning Code together for consideration. The topics range from minor housekeeping or clarification to policy decisions about allowed uses and development standards. Each proposed amendment has a brief explanation followed by a list of options. Staffs recommended option is italicized. PROPOSED CHANGES A. Change the Floor Area Ratio limitation in LDR to a lot coverage standard 1 CTA. �•z:.n The current LDR development standards limit the floor area of all structures on a lot to 50% of the lot area (TMC 18.10.060). While this is not an issue for larger lots it can severely constrain the development of smaller, legally non - conforming lots in areas such as Allentown. A typical 3,000 square foot lot there would be limited to 1,500 square feet of structure including the house as well as garages, sheds, basements and covered porches. A lot coverage standard of 50% would still preserve half the lot as yards, while allowing additional living space on a second or third story of the house. Options: City of Tukwila ila Steven M. Mullet, Mayor Department of Community Development MEMORANDUM 1. Decline to consider the proposal 6) Forward the proposal unchanged to the COW 3.

Eliminate increased setbacks for the second story of structures in LDR C:Wora's_ Files \CODEAMND\ZoneAmendCAP.DOC Page 1 Steve Lancaster, Director The current LDR development standards require that the first story of a house be set back 20 feet from the front property line and the second story be set back 30 feet (TMC 18.10.060). The 6300 Southcenter Boulevard, Suite #100 • Tukwila, Washington 98188 • Phone: 206 - 431 -3670 • Fax: 206 - 431 -3665 ' n� r m;«yarren±rn�urmex ..a?�v'.s setbacks for the second front are 10 feet for the first floor and 15 for the second. This staggered setback requirement often results in a protruding garage and encourages a streetscape of garage doors. By having a single front yard setback builders are more likely to integrate the garage with the front of the house, making it less prominent. Staffs proposal is to have a 20 foot setback for the front and 10 foot setback for the second front in LDR, with no increase for the second story. Porches would still be allowed to be setback 15 feet from the front property line. Options: Decline to consider changes to the front yard LDR setbacks Forward the proposal to eliminate the additional second story setback to the COW Recommend changes to the proposal before forwarding it to the COW a) Change the second story setback to 25 feet on the front and 12.5 feet on the second front b) Change the first story setback to 30 feet on the front and 15 feet on the second front c) Other changes C. Prohibit the use of cargo containers as storage sheds in residential zones The City has received a number of inquiries from residents about the possibility of using old cargo containers as storage sheds or accessory buildings on residential lots. These containers are not compatible with residential character due to their size (generally 40 by 8 feet) and industrial appearance (rectangular boxes made of corrugated metal). Staff recommends that the accessory use sections of the LDR, MDR and HDR Zones be amended as follows: 5. Greenhouses (noncommercial) and storage sheds not exceeding 1,000 square feet in area. Cargo or shipping containers are not allowed as accessory structures. Options: 1.

Add Pawn Shops as allowed or conditional uses in specified Zones Pawn shops are currently allowed in any zone that permits retail sales. Two pawn shops are in operation in the City, both in the NCC Zone. Pawn shops are a distinctive use because they offer loans in exchange for personal property and therefore should be called out as a separate use and specified as allowed or conditional.

Add Internet Data Centers as allowed or conditional uses in specified Zones Tukwila is seeing the rapid development of internet data centers by such companies as Exodus, Globix, AboveNet, Zama Networks, HostPro, Verio and Netstream. We have administratively determined that although this use is not called out in the Zoning Code it will be allowed in zones that allow high tech, warehouse storage and telephone exchanges. Given the proliferation and impacts of this new type of use it should be recognized in Tukwila's Zoning Code. Though the use itself, climate - controlled warehouse space for computers with minimal support and security staff, has few direct impacts the HVAC units and emergency power generators can create high noise levels. For efficiency and security the buildings generally have large floor plates with minimal windows or modulation. The use is most appropriate for, and has primarily occurred in industrial zones. However we are seeing interest in locating these uses in commercial zones such as the TUC. • Options: 1.

Add a parking standard for Internet Data Centers - I f�� G `� 56- 4l �`-- The Zoning Code does not address the parking requirements for internet data centers. They typically are large facilities, ranging from 50,000 to 500,000 square feet, though they have relatively low employee and customer densities. We have used information on the parking requirements of existing internet data centers to administratively set a requirement of 1 parking space per 1000 usable square feet of building.

Remove the fee for Street Vacations from the Zoning Code The auditor has requested that we remove the fee for street vacations from the schedule in the Application Fees Chapter of the Zoning Code (18.88). DCD does not accept applications or collect fees for street vacations so they should not be listed in the Zoning Code. Vacations are a Public Works responsibility and the logical place to list the fee amount would be in the Street and Alley Vacation Procedure chapter (11.60). Options: 1. Decline to change the fee schedule d Recommend to the COW that the schedule be changed as requested P. Change the Zoning Code to allow structures over the right -of -way Currently the Tukwila Zoning Code does not allow for structures to be built over street right -of- way similar to the Convention Center or the Nordstrom skybridge in Seattle. The proposed code change would provide a process for developers to request waivers from the setback provisions of the code. TMC 18.50.0XX Structures over R-O-W A developer who controls parcels on either side of a public right -of -way may request approval to bridge the street with a structure as a Type 2 special permission decision. Only the width of the building that extends across the street is exempt from setbacks, the remainder of the building must meet•them. The developer must also obtain air rights from the City and comply with all other relevant codes including the Washington State Building Code. Options: 1 .

Delete High Tech as a Use Category • High tech uses are listed as permitted in-ten of Tukwila's zones as follows: XX. High tech uses including research and development, light assembling, repair or storage of electronic equipment, instruments, or biotechnology with at least 35% office. This phrasing is ambiguous and has led to confusion by applicants as to what is intended by the category. Is light assembling allowed for any product or only electronic equipment? Are each of these uses required to have at least 35% office or only biotechnology? Staff suggests that we delete the high tech category from MUO, 0, NCC, RC, RCM, TUC, C/LI, LI, HI, and MIC(H as it has been deleted from MIC/L because the underlying uses of office, light manufacturing, medical laboratories and warehouse storage are called out specifically in the various zones. While a high tech office use would be appropriate in the MUO or 0 zones, light manufacturing would not so the overly broad nature of the high tech category could result in the establishment of incompatible uses. Options: 1. Decline to delete high tech from the permitted uses in the Zoning Code 0 Recommend to the COW that the list of permitted uses in the above zones be amended to delete high tech 3.

After hearing from City Council Committee of Whole and the Community Affairs and Parks Committee, staff has added foodbanks to the list of institutional uses allowed to have cargo containers. Additionally, institutional uses were to be limited to one container and a size limit of 30 feet was proposed for institutional and commercial containers. Moreover, no refrigerated containers would be allowed outside, as a result of potential noise impacts. City of Tukwila City Council Regular Meeting Minutes Upon hearing the newly created, proposed language within the draft ordinance, considerable discussion was held. At the end of discussion and deliberation, the following was decided: For consideration and proposed adoption, a newly proposed, draft ordinance is to presented at the April 15, 2002, Regular meeting. NEW BUSINESS: Page 2 of 4 April 1, 2002 1. A size limit of 40 feet will be included for institutional and commercial containers. 2. Institutional uses will be limited to two containers. 3. In instances where two containers are used, no stacking is permitted. 4. Language would be amended [in 18.70.130(a)] to make clearer, that cargo containers installed before April 15, 2002, must receive a Type 2 special permission approval or be removed by April 15, 2003. This is in the residentially zones areas only. a. Authorize the Mayor to sign a consultant's agreement with KPG, Inc., in the amount of $184,081.84, for the design of the South 144th Street Improvements (42nd Avenue South — Military Road) and half - street frontage improvements adjacent to Cascade View Park Jim Morrow, Public Works Director, reported KPG, Inc., was selected from an interview process to perform design services associated with the South 144th Street project and adjacent Cascade View Park Roadway frontage improvements. The ability to perform quality design work was important during the interview process, as was traffic calming and an innovative urban design. A design report will be produced for the section of South 144th Street (between Tukwila International Boulevard & 42nd Avenue South). This will tie together the South 144th Street improvements with the new Cascade View Park and future Tukwila Village development.

The motion carried 7 -0. b. Authorize the Mayor to sign a contract with The McAndrews Group, LTD, in the amount of $49,853.00 to perform the survey for Tukwila Village Jim Morrow, reported that as a condition of the sale of Tukwila Village property to the Sabey Corporation, the City of Tukwila is required to provide a boundary and topographic survey of the project and adjacent streets. Part two includes topographic survey services along South 144th Street, which will assist in the design of the roadway and will include necessary rights -of -way. LINDER MOVED; FENTON SECONDED; TO AUTHORIZE MAYOR MULLET TO SIGN A CONSULTANT'S AGREEMENT WITH THE MCANDREWS GROUP, LTD, IN THE AMOUNT OF $49,853.00 TO PERFORM THE SURVEY FOR TUKWILA VILLAGE. The motion carried 7 -0. c. Authorize the Mayor to sign an interlocal agreement with the City of Renton for the South 180th Street Grade Separation and the Strander Boulevard Extension projects Jim Morrow reported the City of Renton has agreed to be a project funding partner on the South 180th Street Grade separation project. In order for Tukwila to receive monies from the City of Renton, an interlocal agreement must be executed. In 1986, a reciprocal agreement was entered into by both cities to resolve annexation issues. Although the principles of the 1986 agreement were valid, it has been determined the agreement was insufficient to cover the details needed to implement the agreement. Thus, resulting in a newly proposed interlocal agreement. The newly proposed agreement includes such items as decision - making authority, right -of -way issues; property considerations, and funds (types and amounts) being contributed by both cities. The agreement also sets out financial credits afforded to each city. Due to the fact Tukwila has or will contribute more to the project than the City of Renton, Tukwila will enter the Strander Boulevard Extension project with a credit of $262,622. The format and items presented in the South 180th agreement will be carried forward into the agreement for the Strander Boulevard agreement when the project becomes reality. • April 1, 2002 7:00 PM 4.

Staff presented the alternatives to the CAP on March 26 and has amended the draft ordinance to reflect the Committee's recommendations. Following are the changes to the ordinance recommended by CAP. Steven M. Mullet, Mayor 1. Food banks were added to the list of institutional uses allowed to have cargo containers. Though food bank has been added to the list of uses allowed to have cargo containers in residential zones we did not add a definition of food bank to the Code. There was no commonly used definition that distinguished between regional food banks, food banks and food pantries. Generally pantry is used to describe a smaller operation, but there is no recognized threshold at which it becomes a food bank. Food banks are not defined in the Seattle, King County or other local Zoning Codes. 2. Institutional uses will still be limited to one container. The CAP did not recommend changing the number of containers allowed per institution. If we allowed two containers for institutions in residential zones it would be difficult to limit businesses in commercial zones to one container. 3. A size limit of thirty feet is proposed for institutional and commercial containers. The CAP is proposing a length limitation of thirty feet for containers. This may be modified prior to passage of the ordinance based on Councilmembers' inspection of containers in the field. The reasoning for the limitation is that the larger the container the harder it is to move and screen.

The Committee was concerned about the noise impacts of refrigerated containers and is recommending that they not be allowed. REQUESTED ACTION Adopt the ordinance as written or amended.
