Sounder staff have checked the designs to ensure that canopy coverage will be available for all riders waiting at the stations. In order to make this assessment, we have compared the expected train boardings for the maximum -load a.m. peak inbound train against the preliminary platform designs. The following assumptions apply: • Y;Ridership ;,forecasts forlcompletion of the Sound Move Plan (2006,2007), • =, Ridership: estimates• for; year2020,from the 5309 report to the FTA and the EIS documents now in review. • Six inbound trains from Lakewood resulting in 25% of the ridership on the fullest train (7:40 arrival at King St.) • Four inbound trains from Everett resulting in 35% of the ridership on the fullest train (7:45 arrival at King St.) • Standing room of square feet per person for waiting space as a minimum; all of the station designs are also adequate a more generous 7 square feet per person. • Current designs for canopy size and shape from the 30% design submittals on six of the seven Tacoma -to- Seattle stations. • Canopy area reduction of 5% to account for columns (where applicable) and fare machines. • Canopy area reduction of 25% at King St. to account for stairways, elevators, columns, fare machines, and other station furniture. The attached table shows that all station designs provide significantly more weather coverage than required for the waiting passengers. Furthermore, all stations, as currently designed, allow for increased canopy coverage in the future, at such time as the 2020 ridership estimates are exceeded. G ✓��L . 7106 - 1 S Odeed Mvi s ?

SOUNDTRANSIT May 18, 1999 John McFarland, City Administrator City of Tukwila 6200 Southcenter Boulevard Tukwila, WA 98188 Dear Mr. McFarland: Contract #: N/A P.O. #: N/A Subject File Code #: M1430 Ref: Control # N/A Sound Transit has prepared its Unclassified Use Permit application for the Commuter Rail Station at Longacres in Tukwila. In response to staff comments following our pre - application conference, we have prepared additional analysis of traffic issues at the station (see attached report). The report will be submitted as a part of our Unclassified Use Permit application. As noted in the supplemental traffic study, an impact mitigation fee of $139,049 would be required if the provisions of the City's concurrency ordinance are applied to the Commuter Rail Station project. Based on Sound Transit staff's understanding of concurrency, it is our opinion that public transit projects are not subject to concurrency requirements. Therefore, based on that understanding, it is our opinion that a fee should not be imposed. We believe that the City should not impose this fee on a public transit agency, and that the City's concurrency ordinance itself supports such an interpretation. The Tukwila/Longacres Commuter Rail Station is part of Sound Transit's broad program to reduce congestion and improve mobility options throughout the central Puget Sound region. In fact, the agency's overall program is adding significant capacity to the region's transit infrastructure. These benefits will flow to the entire three - county region, but the commuter rail project will also specifically add capacity in and benefit Tukwila. An estimated 60% of the trips to and from the Tukwila/Longacres Station are predicted to come from existing users of the South Renton and Tukwila park- and -ride lots, thus shortening some trips and possibly mitigating an existing overflow parking problem at the Tukwila park-and-ride. In addition, Sound Transit estimates that 30% of commuter rail users will be new transit riders, thus diverting trips from Interurban and Interstate 5. Beyond these direct benefits, our entire program (and the Tukwila/Longacres Station in particular) enables large employers like The Boeing Company to meet commute trip reduction goals, thus providing an important component of the broader regional strategy to reduce congestion on our roadways. While the concurrency ordinance appears to be written to address impacts from private development rather than public transit agencies, it nevertheless acknowledges that "in appropriate cases, mitigation may consist of a combination of improvements constructed by the applicant and mitigation payments" (Ord. 1769; amended TMC Section 9.48.040.E.3). �S Central Puget Sound Regional Tran sit Authority 1C k, (s , � q Second Ave., Suite 500 Seattle.

Director, Public Works Department City of Tukwila 6300 Southcenter Boulevard Tukwila, WA 98188 Dear Mr. Morrow: Contract #: N/A P.O. #: N/A Subject File Code #: cm1430 Ref: Control # (If Known) I am writing to ask for your assistance in determining the standards to which the storm drainage system for the Tukwila Longacres commuter rail station will be designed. Sound Transit's design team met with members of your staff earlier this year to discuss these issues and were advised that the most stringent standards would be applied. As we discussed when we met with you last month, the application of these standards greatly reduces the developable area of the commuter rail station site without providing a corresponding benefit to the storm drainage system. Sound Transit's design team has performed additional calculations and site planning to explore alternatives for complying with the new King County Surface Water Design Manual. We are proposing to comply with the standards as determined by Level 1 analysis in the new manual and are presenting this proposal to you in this letter. Once you have reviewed our proposal, I would like to meet with you and your staff to reach an agreement on the application of the standards to this project. The design team proposes to comply with the new King County Surface Water Design Manual by using facilities designed to meet the standards as determined by Level 1 analysis. A Level 1 analysis is appropriate because its requirements maintain predevelopment peak flows in the highly- managed and engineered site basin; facilities meeting Level 1 requirements are appropriately used in basins (like this one) that have little habitat value (King County Surface Water Manual, Page 1 -31). Stormwater facilities meeting Level 1 standards would require an estimated 20,000 square feet of site area for the station's first phase and an additional 16,500 square feet for full buildout of the station (projected year 2010 ridership and parking).

W O 2 u-a 11l Z �. I— 0 Z w o • - oI wW u. O .z 111 co 0I z The design team explored and recommended against stormwater facilities meeting the manual's Level 3 requirements for two reasons. First, sound engineering principles support the application of Level 1, rather than Level 3, requirements; and second, the much larger facilities required to meet Level 3 standards have serious negative impacts on the site plan, in particular, a significant loss of parking without corresponding benefits. These reasons are discussed below. Stormwater facilities designed to meet Level 1 standards at this location conform with sound engineering principles. In fact, the station is located in a basin already that is highly engineered and heavily managed. Stormwater is directed northeast through Renton's conveyance system to the P -1 Channel, eventually to be pumped into the Green River. The water level of the Green'River itself is controlled upstream by the Corps of Engineers at the Howard Hanson Dam. Level 1 facilities will provide more storage than the old King County Manual required, yet will discharge stormwater volumes compatible with the design and capacity of the Black River Pump Station at the end of the P -1 Channel. In addition, detention volumes for Level 1 are consistent with previous drainage studies, including the 1988 KCM Study and the 1992 Hammond Collier & Wade - Livingston Report. Level 3 analysis is triggered for closed depressions where severe flooding problems have been documented. While there are drainage problems at Nelson Place, these problems occur upstream of our site, are not the result of the "closed depression," and can be addressed independently of our site. For the last decade, the 1988 basin plan has been implemented, including installation of the 158th Street box culvert, improved ditches along the UP and BNSF railroads, City of Renton storm drain upgrades, and increased pumping capacity at the Black River Pump Station. The proposed detention system exceeds the requirement of this basin plan and it is our opinion that upstream problems will be better solved by upstream drainage improvements. Level 3. facilities on our site would not address or alleviate problems along Nelson Place, yet would have significant adverse consequences for us. The site would lose an additional 11,000 square feet of parking during our first phase with Level 3 facilities and another 9,000 square feet at full buildout without corresponding stormwater, flooding or other environmental benefits. For these reasons, the design team has recommended complying with the Stormwater Manual by meeting Level 1 standards. The Sound Transit design team also recommends that stormwater ponds use a 14.5 -foot bottom elevation. This design feature requires City of Tukwila approval since the designated FEMA 100 -year flood elevation at this location is 16.4 feet. Because it is above groundwater level, as supported by wintertime geotechnical ce` c4 LIJ g JU' U O' co CI W =. fn u:. u_�. z�. Z O. LIJ w o. CI w W° F V u_ H _ z:. w U =; O~ z borings, the additional pond depth allowed by a 14.5 -foot bottom elevation will provide active storage volume. It also allows room on -site for an additional 72 parking stalls. The design team notes that the 1992 HCW -L report indicates that the actual 100 -year flood elevation is well below 16.4 feet due to downstream improvements, but that completing the formal process with FEMA to change the designated elevation would be time- consuming and costly. The proposed 14.5 - foot bottom elevation does not exacerbate flooding, provides active storage, and better utilizes the site without reducing storage volume. In summary, Sound Transit's design team recommends that the Longacres Station comply with King County's new Stormwater Design Manual by applying Level 1 analysis and using stormwater ponds with a bottom elevation of 14.5 feet. Thank you for your consideration of this matter. We look forward to working closely with you and your staff in obtaining our permits and constructing and operating the Tukwila Commuter Rail Station at Longacres.

Date: 5/23/00 10:28AM Subject: Draft Response to 4/4/99 36 point letter Hope you get a chance to look at this before we arrive. Keep in mind that its a draftl Jeff (revised 5/23/00) August 26, 1999 RE: Proposed responses to City of Tukwila 36 point comment letter dated 4/4/99. 1. Various easements were established for access and utilities as part of the process of dividing the property between the McLeod interests and Sound Transit at the time Sound Transit purchased part of the property. They are currently generally described. The easement documents contemplate developing the exact locations at a future date when specific development plans are known. For this reason, among others, they are not depicted on the short plat. Please identify the easement language about which you have concern and we will be happy to respond. 2. Steve Kitz from Eastside Engineers has been contacted to modify the Plat sheet by adding the signature block. However, before we have another print made of modified plat sheet, we would like to hear from the City to make sure there isn't anything else that needs to be added to it. 3. We have applied to UP for a private undercrossing agreement. We hope to receive a response from UP soon and will notify the City at that time. 4. If the city requires, we would have no objection to dedicating our existing ownership of proposed lot 2 west of the west margin of the UP right of way to the city for road purposes. However, the city should be aware that Boeing strongly objects to this arrangement. 5. The main entrance to the future site will be via Longacres Way. Currently, as per a survey we had done, the clearance of Longacres Way under the UP Railroad is 13'6" (the 9'6" sign is incorrect). This underpass was recently improved by McLeod and we should follow up and see if he did the improvements per City standards, including fire access requirements. 6. Lot 1 of proposed Short Plat L99 -0041 abuts the South boundary of Lot 2 of SP 98 -0007. Lot 1 of SP 98 -0007 has access all the way north from 158th by virtue of note 12 to that earlier short plat. It references the granting of an easement by lot 2 of SP 98 -0007 to lot 1 of SP 98 -0007 for access. The McLeod interests own Lot 2 of Short Plat 98 -007 as well as Lot 1 of proposed SP L99 -0041.

Comments on bullet items: a) It is our understanding that an agreement between the City and McLeod exists that provides for this purchase by the city from McLeod at $1.82. We believe this agreement is attached to the land and remains in existence regardless of the owner. However, this is an issue between the City and McLeod. (recording #9203161730) b) We would like to discuss this at our next meeting. c) Both McLeod and Sound Transit should have a clearer understanding of what is proposed before there can be an agreement to support the LID. Even if we agree to this, we would want to reserve the right to contest the method of calculation, failure to include benefited property within the LID, and the amount proposed to be levied against the property. d) We would like to discuss this at our next meeting. e) We would like to discuss this at our next meeting. 11. The agreement describing road reservation for Strander Blvd. (recording #9203161730) is attached. 12. No, it will be located by design in a manner that does not interfere with drainage. 13. . Please explain the basis for the city's concerns with the time limits in the existing easement documents. See response 6. 14. See response 6. 15. Puget Sound Energy has a private easement across the UP ROW for access to their sub station. No easement currently exists for access to this substation across ST property. At this time we are negotiating with Puget Sound Energy to determine whether the substation is operational. (Tax parcel 36 is not part of the short plat and we have no certain knowledge concerning access to this parcel, but have heard that access is provided by a private crossing agreement between PSE and UP.) 16. The storm water calculations include Strander Blvd. improvements up to the UPRR crossing. Longacres Way is not included since it is too low to collect for detention purposes. 17. The BNSF Right of Way is also the city of Renton boundary. This line is shown on the architectural general site plan PG -05, but is not labeled as the City of Renton boundary. This will be shown in future submittals. 18. Boundary between Lots 3 and 4 will be addressed in the future. We '. . z = F- d— z: 6 D. J.U.

See response #2. 20. The civil engineers and architects have participated in a series of meetings with City staff. It seems a consensus with the City has been reached, that shows we can do the design to the level 1 detention requirements and that the flood plain is not an issue. We will have to install the 48" storm drain below the BNSF ROW. KPFF still needs to put the final touches on the report and will issue it in the next submittal to the City. Our concern at this moment is that we have preliminary, verbal buy -off from the city but nothing in writing. 21. Sound Transit has examined the feasibility of using the north lot as a storm water detention site and has determined that the use of the site for storm water detention is not feasible due to the low elevation. U lau it � 911 1\/1• , � Ie rj 22. See item 20 above. A verbal agreement between the City and MBT has 'l � L. been made to allow Level 1 in lieu of the previously required Level 3. 23. We are unaware that any property included in the proposed short plat is covered by the latecomer's agreement for Embassy Suites. 24. A loop has been provided which ties into the Bow Lake pipeline, 1000 feet south of Longacres Way. However, it has been dead -ended at Strander, 700 feet further south, to be completed when the Strander improvements are done. 25. The sanitary sewer lines have been extended to the site and connected to previously installed sanitary sewer lines. Please refer to site plan PC -15. 26. The lot north of Longacres Way is private property. It is up to the property owner to regulate the use of that property. However, ST will work with the property owner to eliminate parking on his /her property if that lot owner so requests. 27. Overnight parking will likely be allowed (72 hour limit) which is a similar approach that Metro uses at its Park & Ride lots. This allows ST riders to leave a car at the site for traveling to their job after de- training. In discussions with Metro (Doug Johnson), we do not anticipate a problem with Sea -Tac customers and employees using our lot, as Metro does not have this problem at P &R lots of similar distance from Sea -Tac (see attached Email). 28. There are several unresolved issues concerning improvements to Nelson Place that require further discussion. There is an existing curb and gutter next to the urban walkway on the east side of Nelson Lane which satisfies the pedestrian requirement. We believe that a curb on the west side would be restrictive for warehouse trucks and potentially hazardous for pedestrians. We suggest that a site visit with your engineering group and our civil designers would be best to establish the scope. 29. ST is currently in contact with UP and WSDOT to design the signal r? r• sel 6s-if s .j • ' Moira Bradshaw - Draft Response to 4/4/90 36 point letter ,,, �:: Page 4 , interconnect. We will contact the City when we have a proposal for design. 30. General access across the Bow Lake Pipeline is provided under document no. 9305182053 (attached). This document is unlimited in term and was granted to the McLeod interests for the benefit of the property described in the document. The property description includes all of the property included within the proposed short plat. The property acquired by Sound Transit benefits from this easement by operation of law. Circulation for lot 3 is provided for in easement document 9811051960 (attached)', which provides access across lot 4 (Strander Blvd. extension) to the UP right of way and Strander Blvd. Lot 4 is subject to a 60' road reservation per recording numbers 9203161730 and 9404131437 (attached). Lot 4 further has an easement for ingress and egress across Lot 3 to 158th under document no. 9811051962 (attached). 31. This information should be reflected in the set of drawings that was e7 given to you on 8/4/99. ST will have a contract with a private maintenance company for garbage pick -up. 32.

Suite 500 Seattle, WA 98101 Subject: P98 -0068 Sounder Tukwila Station Issues L99 -0041 Short Plat L99 -0042 Unclassified Use L99 -0043 Design Review The following are issues that have arisen from a substantive review of your applications. In order to continue our review of your application, we request that you provide the additional information or analysis required. Per City ordinance, TMC 18.104.130, Time periods for permit issuance, the 120 day time period for permit review excludes the time needed for you to respond to this request for additional information. Short Plat General . 1. Why doesn't short plat show these proposed "future easements ?" City does not agree with language in these easements. Should they be rescinded or modified? 2. Modify the plat sheets to show format as provided in attachment. Access /Circulation City of Tukwila and City of Renton plan to extend Strander B1. across subject site and create a Minor Arterial. Longacres Way. will not be a through street into Renton. Public street will stop at or east margin of Union S. 156 St. may be extended east of Nelson Place into City of Renton and connected with Oakesdale as a commercial collector arterial for either general access or HOV traffic. Access from Lots 1 and 2 of Tukwila short Plat 98 -0007 will be allowed. Longacres Way 3. "Future Easement" indicates Sound Transit will make access improvements from east margin of. Puget Power right of way into subject site across Lot 2. Note 12, Sheet 2 of 3, says no documents exist to show access through UP at Longacres Way Provide documentation for access prior to approval of short plat. 6300 Southcenter Boulevard, Suite #100 • Tukwila, Washington 98188 • (206) 431-3670 • Fax (206) 431-3665 4. Currently "access road" from east end of Longacres Way row is a 38 foot wide portion of future Lot 2. (Looks like its approximately 16 feet either side of centerline of S. 158 if extended.) Which leads to a 35 foot access easement across proposed Lots 1 and 2 to the west margin of BN right of way, which is evenly divided between future Lots 1 and 2. The portion of proposed Lot 2 between the east margin of Puget Power and the UP row should be street right of way dedicated to City. This additional street length would extend the Longacres Way right of way east to east margin of UP row. City standard for a commercial local access is 60 foot right of way and 36 foot pavement. Longacres Way width varies from 56.5 to 38 feet. 5. ST Commuter Rail EIS discusses need to improve access to park and ride lot. . Specifically, "Longacres Way is currently in poor condition and would need to be reconstructed and channelized to support project related traffic." Conditions vary along the length of Longacres Way to the site. ST is asked to provide cross section improvements per City standards from W. Valley Hy. to east margin of UP right of way. Fire Department needs 14 foot six inch clearance under UP rail. Underpass is currently signed at 9 feet six inches. 6. Develop language and improvements that ensure that access and design of Longacres Way provides access to Lots 1 and 2 of Tukwila Shortplat L98 -0007. 7. Need a copy of settlement Agreement between Boeing and McLeod. 8. Need a copy of 22 foot access and utility easement over proposed Lot 1 recording # 9609130558.. (Access under BN's tracks between Boeing and McLeod was closed on July 6, 1999 by BN.) Strander BL 9. According to your submittal, McLeod will make Stander Bl. Improvements. (Future Easement for access, roadway and utilities — Strander BI. — Recording # 9811051960) Where is agreement between McLeod and UP? Verify UP agreement will allow access for proposed Lot 3 and length of agreement, etc. 10. A property owners agreement that would be recorded prior to approval of short plat from McLeod and Sound Transit will be required. It shall specify, among other possible items, the following: • Mainteriance of price per square foot ($1.82) that was established at time of rezone /comp plan change for McLeod for right -of -way acquisition. • Temporary nature of proposed at -grade crossing • No protest for future LID improvements for Strander B1. Improvements including any utilities • Recognition that access will be modified at time of future street improvement. • Minimum width and nonspecific location of future right of way.

Won't this location interfere with drainage easement? 13. City does not agree with the time frame running to 2005 for S. 156 street to be installed. This easement should be perpetual and run with the land. 14. "Future Easement" should provide access for Lots 1 and 2 of short plat 98 -0007. Access language for Lot 1 across Lot 2 specifies a "non — location specific easement across lot 2 and to access and fully utilize lot 1 as if lot 1 had full access to a public right of way.- This easement shall be relinquished upon the dedication and construction of a public right of way serving lot 1." 15. How does Puget Power legally access their sub station,Tax parcel 36, on future Lot 3? Storm Water 16. Do drainage calculations for Station take into account the impervious surfaces of Access improvements in Strander and Longacres Way? 17. Identify Renton boundary along east side of BN row. 18. Not sure boundary between Lots 3 and 4 is appropriate given potential size and location of Strander over /underpass? Will get back to you on this. 19. Modify Sheets to add itemized list of previous recorded documents. List attached. Unclassified Use/Design Review Storm Water 20. Surface water systems need to be designed per the 1998 King County Surface Water Design Manual and current published FEMA 100 year Flood. Water quality and quantity controls will be needed. If any other standard is desired, the standard would need to be adopted and Sound Transit is responsible for initiating and justifying the new standard. 21. The City would be willing to offer, for compensation, the parcel to the north adjacent to 405 for regional storm water detention. 22. Portion of site is in flood plain. Compliance with City of Tukwila flood ordinance is required. No fill in flood plain without compensatory storage. Use Nelson Place/McLeod/Boeing CSTC storm drainage study as a design reference.

How will informal parking on lot to north of Longacres Way be. controlled? 27. How is overnight parking controlled for example Sea -Tac passengers using the parking lot and then using the Metro 340? 28. Curb, gutter sidewalks, drainage, and illumination are required on Nelson Place, from S 156 St. to Longacres Way, on Longacres Way and on Strander Boulevard. City Engineer disagrees with Heffron Letter dated May 17, 1999, which says a small fraction (1%) of outbound traffic may use Nelson Place to avoid West Valley/Longacres Way intersection. 29. Design and install traffic signal interconnects between the signalized intersection of West Valley HY and Strander Bl. and the UP signalized at grade crossing. 30. Bow Lake pipeline agreement providing access between Lots 3 and 4 is for pedestrian access and landscaping has a life of 40 years and is to McLeod and Helen Nelson. How will this be transferred? Please address long term circulation between proposed Lots 3 and 4. 31. A number of items on the site plan are not called out and it is unclear what they are. See attached highlighted site plans. The City needs to see any durnpster or trash collection called out and supported with elevations. 32. The site plan has some utility information but it does not appear to be complete. Are there civil drawings that show all existing and proposed utilities including the nearest fire hydrant? 33. Materials to be used need to be noted on elevations. 34.

Table 1 should be corrected to show 640 trips for auto /park for Phase 2: This correction will necessitate revising Tables 3, 4 and 5 and Figures 2 and 3 accordingly. Comment 2. No additional comment Comment 3. Jurisdictional responsibility for mitigation of parking overflow is not addressed. The transportation analysis indicates there are very few options for parking overflow. However, properties such as Boeing Longacres, Embassy Suites, Puget Sound Energy and the existing roadway shoulders offer areas for overflow parking to occur. Parking management measures such as private lot monitoring, employee vehicle rotation, No Parking signs, and enforcement are all measures that should be mitigated by the project. The project applicant should provide mitigation measures which would be implemented based on thresholds for parking and ridership being exceeded for the respective project phases. (note: we have a current overflow parking problem @ the Interurban park- and -ride; overflow parking on the adjacent side streets and the golf course parking lot have been signed with parking time limits and the problems remain in terms of monitoring, enforcement, and safety). Comment 4. The Heffron transportation analysis indicates LOS F with a queue of 258 feet for the 169 westbound right turns on Longacres Way at West Valley Highway for 2010 full project condition. At 5 156 Street and West Valley Highway, the analysis indicates LOS C with a queue of 38 feet for west bound right turns for 2010 full project conditions. Likewise, southbound left turns on West Valley Highway at Longacres Way (27 left turns) and 5 156 Street are LOS F with a queue of 195 feet and LOS C with a queue of 30 feet, respectively for 2010 full project conditions. For the 169 westbound right turns, the differences between the Longacres /W Valley and Nelson Place /5 156 St routes are 2 signals versus a stop sign and signal respectively. The travel time difference between the 2 routes is not significantly different. The analysis indicates that 166 of the z Z • re 2 J 0, 00 Nw w =.. f.. w0 zd z�. Z o. Do. 10 - CI �: w w' H V, 9-7 0; .

More specifically related to safety and pedestrian /bicycle facilities. The analysis needs to address bicycle connectivity to and from the project site including the Interurban Trail crossing. on Longacres Way; on- street including lane widths, off - street including sidewalk widths, other. The analysis should include specific off -site improvements from the project site to West Valley Highway on Longacres Way, Nelsen Place, and Strander Blvd. These improvements include pavement widening, pavement overlay, curb and gutter, sidewalks, drainage, Street lighting, channelization, signing. (Note: Level of Service Definitions Section, Table 1 appears to be in,error with 10 seconds missing between LOS C and D.) Comment 8. No additional comment. Comment 9. See comment 5. Jili Mosqueda - Commmuter Rail Longacres Comments From: Brian Shelton To: Jill Mosqueda, Jim Morrow, Moira Bradshaw Date: 8/4/99 11:50AM Subject: Commmuter Rail Longacres Comments • Attached a Jill Mosqueda - Re: sound transit � Page 1 From: Brian Shelton To: Jill Mosqueda Date: 8/3/99 1:19PM Subject: Re: sound transit Comments: 1. Traffic mitigations per Heffron Table 5. 2. Nelsen Place improvements include curb and gutter, pa ment widening and overlay, sidewalks, drainage, street lighting, signing, channelization. These • provements are warranted because the Heffron traffic study indicates LOS E & F for Longacres Way stbound traffic for Phase 1 & Phase 2 development. These delays are SIGNIFICANT an will lead to traffic using Nelsen Place /S 156 St instead of waiting on Longacres Way to make a westbo, d right turn. Since their study indicates that 52.5% of the traffic will travel north of 1405 on Interurb 'Avenue, Southcenter Blvd, or Grady Way it stands to reason that this traffic will use either route . get from the Commuter Rail Station to the intersection of Southcenter Blvd and Interurban. 3. Need improvements in Longacr- Way from West Valley Hwy to the Commuter Rail Station td include curb and gutter, sidewalks, drai -ge, street lighting, pavement widening and overlay, signing, channelization. 4. Parking off -site from t - Station lot is a potentially severe problem. Curb and gutter and sidewalks will help restrict any on -stye- parking from occurring. »> Jill Mosqueda • :/03/99 09:37AM >» justa gentle remir}der about the traffic analysis comments you promised this morning.

Service will be largely on existing tracks, with improvements-along the BNSF main line (including new additional track) as required to allow.increased.passenger train speeds and to minimize conflicts with existing train traffic. The project includes specific mitigation commitments, which are described in more detail below. Access to the service will be provided from stations located within the cities of Seattle, Tukwila, Kent, Auburn, Sumner, Puyallup and Tacoma. Commuter trains will run in each direction along the 40 -mile corridor at approximately one half hour intervals during peak commute hours. A total of 9 morning and 9 evening trips is planned. All stations except for those in downtown Seattle and Georgetown (provisional) will include park- and -ride facilities. In addition, pedestrian and bicycle access to all stations will be encouraged and enhanced by station design and station area improvements. Buses will provide access to all stations. Some stations will also be served by the regional express bus system. Station sites analyzed as part of this project represent a basic level of development, including parking, drop off areas, and station platforms. Design and construction of station sites will occur in accordance with a community -based design process. This process will include selection of a design team for each station jointly by the local jurisdiction and Sound Transit, and design development by the selected team in consultation with the local jurisdiction's staff, a community -based advisory cornrnittee,.and Sound Transit. Construction of the Tacoma -to- Seattle stations and track improvements is projected to start in late 1998. Operation is expected to begin in late 1999. Other components of the Sound Transit program, including extensions of commuter rail service, light rail transit, and regional express . bus service, will be coordinated and integrated with the Tacoma -to- Seattle commuter rail project, and will be subject to separate environmental review. A plan -level environmental impact statement was prepared for the RegionaLTransit System Plan in early 1993 (Regional Transit System Plan EIS), which included the current proposal. Project - level environmental review for the proposal began in December 1993 when a SEPA determination of significance (DS) was issued. Scoping meetings were held in each of the communities served by the commuter rail line in early 1994, and a combined preliminary National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) environmental assessment (EA) and State 1 z re 2 00 CO 0 W =. J w0 2 gQ �d Fw Z �. f- O Z t-. U� o W W` U 7 UN z Environmental Policy Act (SEPA) supplemental EIS was prepared. The document was circulated to local jurisdictions for their review and comment. When the first vote on financing - -for the Regional-Transit-System-Plan-failed in.March 1995, work on the environmental review was suspended. Sound Transit reactivated the environmental review for the project in the fall of 1997, following voter approval of financing for the plan in November 1996. The current review of the proposal updates the environmental work begun in 1993 to reflect new project design decisions, changes in adopted plans and regulations of the affected municipalities, updated traffic forecasts, and other factors, including express mitigation commitments made by Sound Transit. As part of this review, the DS issued in 1993 is being withdrawn (pursuant to WAC 197 -11- 360(4)) and the form of SEPA documentation is being changed. There are several reasons for this. First, the prior analysis revealed no probable significant adverse environmental impacts, the threshold for preparing an EIS. Second, community acceptance (based upon public input) was high and public controversy about the project's environmental issues was low.. Third, the Union Pacific (UP) track alternative was eliminated from consideration. Without the UP track alternative, and given the lack of significant impacts, the need for an EIS evaluating alternatives was.absent. Finally, Sound Transit has entered a set of mitigation commitments that assure that the project will not have any significant adverse environmental impacts. These mitigation commitments are set out in Attachment A and are incorporated herein by reference. These commitments will be fully integrated into the project. A draft EA was issued in December 1997 for public and agency comment. The EA was revised in response to these comments. The completed EA was submitted to the Federal Transit Administration (FTA), the lead agency for NEPA compliance, on April 6, 1998. Accompanying the submittal of the EA was Sound Transit's mitigation commitments and a request for a Finding of No Significant Impact (FONSI). FTA submitted additional comments, which were addressed in a final EA prepared in June 1998. This adoption notice satisfies the SEPA requirements for adoption contained in WAC 197 -11 -610 (2) and the Department of Ecology's SEPA Handbook. Proponent: Central Puget Sound Regional Transit Authority (Sound Transit) Location of current proposal: The project will be located between downtown Tacoma and Seattle generally on existing Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railway right -of -way. The northern terminus of the line will be at King Street Station in downtown Seattle and the southern terminus will be just west of the existing Tacoma Amtrak station.

This mitigation program derives from the.environmental analysis contained in the NEPA Environmental Assessment (EA)-and related documentation developed for the project. The elements of the mitigation program track the order of the elements of the environment set out in the NEPA EA. This mitigation program contains Sound Transit's most current commitments regarding mitigation. To the extent that this material differs from the potential mitigation measures described in provisions of the EA or elsewhere, this program supersedes those provisions. It may be further updated by the Sound Transit Board, and it may be subject to further refinement as part of the permitting process. Unless otherwise noted, the elements of this program apply to all commuter rail stations and track improvements proposed in the Tacoma -to- Seattle project. w p: g J. 21a - w. z 1._. 1- o z I- D n o ww H V; 1.; LAND USE w z H 1.1 Land Use impacts will be controlled and mitigated by local jurisdictions through their 0 comprehensive planning, zoning and other implementation ordinances and development regulation process. 2. SOCIOECONOMICS 2.1 Business and residential displacements would occur as a result of the purchase of land by Sound Transit. To mitigate the impacts of displacement, Sound.Transit will follow federal and state relocation requirements, as applicable. These include the federal Uniform Relocation Assistance and Real Property Acquisition Policy Acts and similar Washington state laws. 2.2 Sound Transit will develop and follow its own relocation assistance procedures for affected landowners. 2.3 In the event of acquisition of all or part of a parcel of property, appropriate compensation will be paid, consistent with applicable laws and procedures.

NOISE AND VIBRATION 4.1 During construction, Sound Transit will impose reasonable and appropriate restrictions on the construction activity, including time -of -day restriction on construction activities near sensitive land uses and enforcement of industry noise standards for construction equipment. 4.2 To minimize-vibration during rail operation, Sound Transit will develop and implement a maintenance program, which may include rail grinding, wheel truing, wheel flat detector systems, and vehicle reconditioning programs. In addition, Sound Transit will plan and design crossovers and other special track work to avoid sensitive land uses and will develop vehicle specifications that limit the vertical resonance frequency of the primary suspension. 5. HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 5.1 Sound Transit will perform an Environmental Site Assessment (ESA or environmental audit) for all property acquisitions. If a project site is contaminated, Sound Transit will either select an alternative site or undertake remedial actions appropriate for the site, such as removal of contaminated material, on -site treatment, or other remedy. 5.2 Sound Transit will monitor work Sites that are identified as potentially having hazardous materials. Depending on the specific hazardous materials suspected at a given site, Sound Transit will conduct appropriate health and safety monitoring, testing and other protections to ensure a safe working environment for construction workers. 6. WETLAND RESOURCES/ECOLOGY In the rail corridor, the new third track segment will be designed to avoid or minimize wetland impacts. In the event that such impacts cannot be avoided, Sound Transit will work closely with the Washington State Department of Ecology (Ecology), the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW), the local jurisdiction(s), affected tribes and the Corps of Engineers through the § 404 permit process to formulate and implement an appropriate wetland mitigation plan, including identifying appropriate locations for wetland creation and/or enhancement to mitigate wetland losses. General Statement of Commitments • Sound Transit commits to providing restoration, compensation, or enhancement when any wetland is permanently altered as a result of the Project. Sound Transit will ensure that the Project is designed to employ all practicable methods to minimize harm to wetlands. • Sound Transit will commit to principles of impact assessment and a formula for mitigation replacement for those impacts, if any, that are not identified until construction A -3 or operation, or that result from impacts that unavoidable or not susceptible to restoration by other action. The principles of impact assessment that shall be applied to all unanticipated impacts are, in descending order of importance, avoidance, minimization, restoration, rehabilitation, and compensation.

Recommended Improvements BACKGROUND Sound Transit (ST) owns 11 acres of land located between Longacres Way, Strander Bl., if extended, BNSF and UP. They applied in 1999 for an unclassified use and design approval for a permanent station that would have included a large parking lot, landscaping, transit transfer zone, public art, pedestrian tunnel and permanent materials for platforms and canopies. The City requested substantive information from ST regarding the proposed permanent station and short plat and have been waiting for resolution by ST on the issues raised since August of 1999. During and since this period of review, Sound Transit and City of Tukwila staff mutually agreed that more intensive development of the Sound Transit property would be beneficial to the overall community, the City and ST. However, the City and ST have not agreed on the steps necessary to publicly encourage and support a joint public /private transit oriented development of the site. ST have discussed advertising to the development community the availability of their site for a joint development that would include a rail platform, bus and passenger loading zones and parking along with some other private use. They also propose that a permanent station will be in place by February 2004 — approximately a three year time frame to negotiate and implement a public /private development. On October 17, 2000, ST submitted revised drawings showing temporary station improvements that are the subject of this review. Two people attended the public meeting held on Monday November 6, per the requirements for a Type 5 permit (18.108.050, TMC.) One attendee, a representative of the Taco Bell at the northeast corner of West Valley Hy and Strander Bl, was interested in possible effects of the rail station on their business. The other attendee, an employee of the FAA, whose office is located on 16 Av SE in Renton, was interested in when and how the commuter train was to operate in order to ease his commute. The City of Renton provided the City with a letter responding to the City's notice for the proposed station. They do not anticipate significant impacts to their street system due to the temporary station but do request that bike lanes be incorporated into Longacres Way thereby 2 Staff Report to the Tukwila City Council Sounder Temporary Tukwila Station L99 -0042 & L99 -0043 allowing connections with the Interurban Trail, the rail station and Renton bike routes further east. In addition, they note that the future Strander B1. extension will provide grade separated crossings of the UP and BNSF tracks and provide access to the ST property. The street extension is estimated to cost 25 million dollars, which they hope will be supported financially by the City of Tukwila and ST. w: FINDINGS re g J V.

The supporting park and ride lot, passenger load zone, and bus z stops are east of the platforms on the Boeing Longacres site, which is in the City of Renton. F- O.. z�. ww The proposed commuter rail station consists primarily of two passenger platforms 600 feet in o length adjacent to the existing BNSF railway tracks with one wheelchair- accessible platform at p N, the northern end of each platform. (Attachment B and C) The platforms will be constructed tu = adjacent to the tracks at the top of the existing embankment, which is approximately 15 feet above ground level in this location. (Attachment E) The platforms will be 10 feet deep and have u. o a three foot six inch high chain link fence as a railing along the back edge and sides of the . Z. platforms. Access to the platforms will be via handicap accessible wood framed ramps and by a 0 stairs at the north end of the platforms. Each of the platforms will have a canopy shelter and bench. (Attachment F) A set of stairs and a ramp would connect each of the platforms to the ground level. (Attachment C and D) Pedestrian connection from one side of the tracks to the other would be via a new six foot wide sidewalk on the south side of the underpass at the BNSF railroad bridges that cross Longacres Way. (Attachment E) A total of 250 parking stalls are proposed to be provided on leased Boeing property in the City of Renton. This parking area will be fenced off from the remaining Boeing property to the east. At separate locations at the north end of the parking area, a bus stop and a passenger drop -off (kiss and ride) area will be provided. Ticket vending machines and other passenger information will be located at the northwest corner of the parking area. For two hours in the morning and two hours in the evening, a proposed gate on the east side of the BNSF tracks and east of the entrance to the parking lot will be open allowing through traffic between the City of Renton and Tukwila. During this time station patrons can access the parking lot from 16 Av. SW. Pedestrians travelling into Renton will walk approximately 1400 feet (1/4 mile) along paved Boeing property (former Longacres Track parking area) to get to a street and sidewalk system. 3 ., . �..... � �,.......... .. �,::;{._ : Staff Report to the Tukwila City Council Sounder Temporary Tukwila Station L99 -0042 & L99 -0043 Operational Sound Move, adopted by the state authorized Regional Transit Authority, RTA (later reinstated as the Central Puget Sound Regional Transit Authority or Sound Transit), on May 31,1996, laid out a plan for an 81 mile commuter rail system on existing tracks between Everett and Lakewood. The Plan called for 14 stations and 3 provisional stations that would also be shared with Amtrak and Washington State's expanding intercity rail service between Portland and Vancouver, B.C. For the near term, Sounder service operates Monday through Friday during peak commute hours with two morning trips northbound (the easternmost track) and two afternoon trips southbound (westernmost track) to Tacoma. Additional rush -hour service will be added as track improvements and facilities are constructed Passengers are expected to purchase a pass or a ticket from a ticket vending machine and then be prepared to show a ticket or a pass to a conductor upon request. The vending machines will accept cash, debit card, Visa or MasterCard. Tickets are not sold on the train and passengers without a valid ticket or pass are subject to a citation and fine of up to $250. Sounder fares include free transfers to local bus service of equal or lesser value on Community Transit, Everett Transit, Metro, Pierce Transit and ST Express. Accessible restrooms will be available on board each train car. Possible bus service to the site will be Route 140 (formerly the 340,) that provides service between the Renton South Park and Ride and Burien. Surrounding Land Uses The project is surrounded by a variety of uses: Boeing Commercial Airplane Headquarters to the east, vacant land immediately west; light industrial and the Interurban recreational Trail west of the Union Pacific railroad tracks; and hotels and commercial services along West Valley Highway. Primary access to the station is from West Valley Hy (WVH,) Longacres Way and Nelson Place. Longacres Way becomes a private two lane access easement at the east margin of the Puget Sound Energy right of way to the City limits with Renton. Nelson Place, which parallels the Interurban Trail, is a substandard two lane local access street that will provide alternative access to Longacres Way from WVH. Longacres Way has sidewalks on the south side of the street in front of the Embassy Suites parking lot. CRITERIA FOR UNCLASSIFIED USES (TMC 18.66. 060) City Council approval of an unclassified use application shall be guided by the nine criteria of the Zoning Code (18.66.060 TMC) and a determination that the project is consistent with the Tukwila plans and regulations (18.100.030 TMC.) The applicant's response to each of the criteria are contained verbatim below and are followed by a staff response.

The City Council may approve the project as proposed, establish conditions on the project approval, or deny the project. 1. Where appropriate and feasible, all facilities shall be undergrounded. Applicant's response: "The proposed temporary commuter rail station cannot be placed underground as the platforms must be 8 inches above the existing track rail." Staff response: Sound Move, the regional plan, shows the use of existing heavy rail tracks for its commuter services, which are above ground. 2. The proposed use will not be materially detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to the property or improvements in the vicinity. Applicant's response: "The proposed development has been designed to be compatible with current and planned uses in the vicinity. The station will be located along existing railroad track, and will offer both northbound and southbound commuter service in the morning and evening hours. Alternative locations for the commuter rail station, including the initially proposed SW 43rd Street /S. 180th Street station, were discussed with Tukwila staff which recommended the currently proposed location. The site is cleared and vacant, and its use as a commuter rail station, with associated park- and -ride lot and transit center, will not displace current or planned uses. Amtrak has indicated its intention to use this station for its service as well; the proposal is consistent with that plan. Finally, the station will serve as a destination as well as the start of commuter trips, located as it is in close proximity to the Boeing Longacres employment center. The environmental impacts of the proposed use were addressed in Sound Transit Tacoma -to- Seattle Commuter Rail Environmental Assessment (Federal Transit Administration and Sound Transit, June 1998). The analysis and conclusions included in the Environmental Assessment are summarized below. Socioeconomic. The commuter rail would operate on existing tracks. No existing uses would be displaced by the proposal. The proposed action would not involve significant adverse impacts on populations protected by Executive Order 12898, Federal Actions to Address Environmental Justice in Minority Populations and Low - Income Populations. Based on the socioeconomic analysis, the proposed commuter rail station has the potential to provide mobility benefits to transit - dependent populations, while reducing household costs. Transportation. Traffic increases associated with commuter travel to the station would be limited to morning and evening commute hours. West Valley Highway, located west of the proposed station site, is a principal north -south arterial connecting directly to 1-405. Vehicles would enter the station primarily via Longacres Way. Operation of the station would not cause levels of service to change from projected future baseline conditions; intersection -by- intersection analysis results are summarized below and discussed in more detail in the Environmental Assessment (EA). 5 Staff Report to the Tukwila City Council Sounder Temporary Tukwila Station L99 -0042 & L99 -0043 The intersections of Longacres Way /West Valley Highway, Stander Boulevard /West Valley Highway and Lind Avenue /SW 16th Street are expected to operate at acceptable LOS D or better during the 1997, 2010 baseline, and 2010 proposed action p.m. peak hour traffic conditions. The intersection of Fort Dent Road /West Valley Highway is operating at LOS E under existing conditions and would continue to operate at this level under the proposed action. The intersections of Grady Way /West Valley Highway and South 180th Street /West Valley highway are operating at LOS F under existing conditions and would continue to operate at this level under the proposed action. The intersection of Lind Avenue /Grady Way is operating at LOS D under existing conditions, and is expected to fall to LOSE both under the 2010 future baseline and proposed action. The intersections of Oaksdale Avenue /SW 16th Street and Oaksdale Avenue /Grady Way currently operate at LOS B and LOS C, respectively. The 2010 baseline and proposed action levels of service are projected to fall to LOS E for the Oaksdale /SW 16th Street intersection and LOS F for the Oaksdale /Grady intersection. Longacres Way is currently in poor condition but is in sufficient condition for this temporary station. The roadway will need to be improved when the permanent station is constructed. This reconstruction would benefit the surrounding property owners. Noise. The proposed commuter rail station is not expected to cause noise or vibration annoyance. Potential sources of noise and ground -borne vibration would include idling locomotives, feeder bus traffic and increased automobile traffic on adjacent roadways. Measures will be taken to control vibration along the commuter rail route, which will operate at first between Tacoma and Seattle; these include rail grinding, wheel truing, wheel flat detector systems, and vehicle reconditioning programs. Hazardous Materials. No contaminated sites included on the Washington State LUST, UST, and CSCS lists, or in the federal EPA databases occur on the proposed site, and the operation of the station will not increase the risk of contamination. Biological Resources. The proposed station site has been cleared and graded in the fairly recent past, and is currently vacant. No significant biological resources will be affected by the construction and operation of the station. Historical. Park and Recreation Resources. No properties listed under or eligible for listing under the National Register of Historic Properties and the Washington Heritage Register are located on or in the vicinity of the proposed station. No parks or recreation facilities would be directly displaced by the proposed use, and no significant impacts to park and recreation resources located in the vicinity of the station site are anticipated. Cultural Resources. No potentially significant cultural resources were identified during field reconnaissance and no archaeological sites are recorded in the project area. If archaeological material is encountered during the proposed project construction, work should be halted and the Office of Archaeological and Historic Preservation are to be consulted to determine appropriate follow -up. Visual Quality. The station platforms would add some visual diversity but would have little effect on the visual resources of the area. The station is expected to improve the appearance 6 Staff Report to the Tukwila City Council Sounder Temporary Tukwila Station L99 -0042 & L99 -0043 of the site by replacing unkempt open areas. Safety and Security. The proposed station has been designed to promote safety and security. Potential commuter rail safety and security issues include safe operational interface between all transportation modes, as well as passenger safety and security aboard buses and trains, at transit stations, and in adjacent areas. Pedestrians would use an existing undercrossing, thus avoiding the need to cross the tracks at grade. Passenger security both off and on the train has been incorporated into the proposed project. The design allows for ease of surveillance for police patrol cars. The shelters will be well lighted, well maintained, and patrolled by local police and transit security force. Air Quality. The air quality impacts of the proposed use were evaluated as part of the planning process, in close cooperation with the Puget Sound Air Pollution Control Agency (PSAPCA). The evaluation of air quality impacts indicated that corridor level emissions of carbon monoxide and particulate matter would be reduced under the proposed action relative to the 2010 baseline condition. Emissions of hydrocarbons and oxides of nitrogen would be slightly higher, due to the addition of commuter rail locomotives. Water Quality. The nominal impacts to water quality at the proposed site are primarily related to associated erosion and contaminant transport during construction. Earth. The proposed project will involve nominal earthwork (i.e. grading) for construction. Re- establishment of vegetation in non paved cleared areas, as soon as possible and application of appropriate ground cover, would be used to minimize the potential for erosion hazards during operation." Staff Response: Transportation Longacres Way is a private access easement from the eastern edge of the Puget Sound Energy right of way east to the City limits. Through access on this easement to the proposed commuter rail parking lot in the City of Renton is prevented by BNSF who has placed concrete barriers in the underpass for their railroad bridge. One of the reasons for barring access is that clearance is approximately twelve feet two inches. The clearance is insufficient for many large vehicles. The City's clearance standard is thirteen feet six inches. An adjacent landowner began improvements to the Union Pacific underpass but it appears that the improvement was never completed as flooding often occurs along the private portion of Longacres Way. Public storm drains extend above the surface of the surrounding pavement on the south side of Longacres Way where the final layer of asphalt has yet to be applied to the street surface. Sidewalks only exist along the front of the Embassy Suites property on Longacres Way Nelson Place connects Longacres Way with S. 156 St. where another signalized intersection with WVH is available. Nelson Place is substandard but will be used by rail patrons to provide alternative access to WVH from Longacres Way.

The proposed use shall meet or exceed the same standards for parking, landscaping, z yards and other development regulations that are required in the district it will 1- 0 z �- occupy. w ui Applicant's response: "Site development would be consistent with applicable Tukwila U co O zoning requirements. The site is zoned Tukwila Urban Center (TUC, Chapter 18.28 of the �. Tukwila Municipal Code). The basic development standards (height, yard dimensions, i v; landscaping guidelines, parking, and performance standards in TMC 18.28.080) will be I met. The proposed station is consistent with the general purpose of the TUC district ( "It z is intended to provide an area of high intensity regional uses that include commercial v - services, offices, light industry, warehousing, and retail uses. Development is intended to p be pedestrian friendly, with a strong emphasis 011 a safe and attractive streetscape." ? TMC 18.28.010). The proposed use is generally less intensive and more compatible with nearby uses than most of the other uses identified as unclassified used in the TUC district; these, as listed in TMC 18.28.050, include airports, conversions of rental multi family structures to condominiums, correctional institutions, essential public facilities, landfills, and transit centers" Staff response: The proposed platforms will meet the Washington State barrier -free standards adopted by the City of Tukwila. The applicant has not developed a landscape plan. Landscaping, which is typically required of any new development within the TUC district takes approximately three years to become established. The lighting for the platforms and along Longacres Way will be from wood poles attached with luminaires. Power to the luminaires will be from power lines strung overhead. City regulations require undergrounding of all new electrical and communication facilities. (13.08.060 TMC) See also findings below under the Design Review criteria. The applicant is asking for approval of a "temporary improvement." Staff Report to the Tukwila City Council Sounder Temporary Tukwila Station L99 -0042 & L99 -0043 4. The proposed development shall be compatible generally with the surrounding land uses. Applicant's response: "The site is located immediately south of 1 -405 in the City of Tukwila, within the BNSF railroad track ROW The City of Renton and the Boeing Longacres facility, where parking for the temporary station will be provided, lie immediately to the east. Other land uses in the vicinity include a large parking area to the east, light industrial buildings, a recreational bike trial, and an existing office building. Much of the area surrounding the proposed station site is experiencing rapid development, and the conversion of undeveloped properties to commercial and /or office related uses is likely to continue. Retail development and other businesses or industries are likely to locate near the proposed station." Staff response: The proposed transportation improvement is a train stop with a platform to accommodate passengers getting on and off the train. In order for the station to be compatible it needs to be able to serve rail passengers trying to access the station. Within and just beyond a 1/2 mile radius are six hotels with hundreds of rooms. The Boeing Commercial Airplane headquarters employs well over 1,500 employees and provides other services such as training for their worldwide clientele. Within the City of Renton, Sound Transit is offering free parking stalls for 250 cars and a kiss and ride location. Sound Transit has discussed working with King County Metro to reroute existing buses to the station to provide connections to people destinations such as the mall, airport, housing etc. However, Metro has only one route that is not an express to downtown that travels in this vicinity, which is Route 140. 32 acres of vacant land exists, between the BNSF and UP railroad embankments, I -405 and the wetland just south of Strander Bl., if extended. The area's zoning, Tukwila Urban Center, allows a broad range of uses other than heavy industrial and residential. Because of the limited, private and substandard nature of access to these 32 acres, development will be difficult and costly. While rail access will be beneficial, most development still requires vehicle access as its primary mode of transportation. 5. The proposed development shall to the maximum extent feasible be consistent with and promote the goals, objectives, and policies of the Comprehensive Land Use Policy Plan and applicable adopted area plans. Applicant's response: "The site is designated as Urban Center in the City of Tukwila's Comprehensive Plan. The Comprehensive Plan describes the City's intent to support a high - density, regionally oriented, mixed use center in Tukwila. The Comprehensive Plan generally supports commuter rail in the Tukwila Urban Center to "help ensure Tukwila's long -term economic viability and competitiveness in the region. " The Plan's Urban Center Goal 10.3, Transportation and Circulation, expresses the City's intent to "work with transit providers to develop and fund regional park - and -ride and rail locations where traffic and visual impacts on the Tukwila Urban Center are minimized through site design and management" (Goal 10.3.1). Similarly, Goal 10.3.3, Transit Service and 9 Staff Report to the Tukwila City Council Sounder Temporary Tukwila Station L99 -0042 & L99 -0043 Facilities, support promoting "the development and enhancement of transit service and facilities." The proposed commuter rail station is consistent with these goals. While the existing rail lines fix the location of the station at the east edge of the Urban Center, its presence will help the Urban Center maintain a regional orientation and provide transportation infrastructure for continued growth. Its visual impacts are minimal, and Z traffic impacts result in no changes to levels of service compared to baseline conditions." w a_ 2 Staff response: In addition, the Comprehensive Plan states: 6 U.

W O. 2o There are significant obstacles to private development adjacent to and on top of the ST site that V co will not be addressed through a public investment in a rail stop. ;o I- I w: 6. The proposed unclassified use shall, to the maximum extent feasible, mitigate all E- v significant adverse environmental impacts on public and private properties. Full ic-f) consideration shall be given to: tii N H =. 0 l- a. alternative locations and /or routes that reduce or eliminate adverse impact; z. b. alternative designs that reduce or eliminate adverse impacts. Applicant's response: "See Response 1, above. The station has been designed to minimize adverse impacts to the site and surrounding area." Staff response: There are minimal alternatives for locating a commuter rail station within the City of Tukwila that serves the City's urban center, the preferred location for transit service to the City. Longacres Way, although private, is the only safe access to the BNSF rail line south of I -405 and north of S. 180 St because of the existence of the UP underpass. The City of Renton is preparing a design report for a public extension of Strander Bl across the BNSF and UP tracks; however, funding for the improvement has yet to be secured. Whether a rail station closer to Strander Bl. would better serve the City's urban center depends upon the overall design of the new street. 7. In the event that a proposed essential public facility creates an unavoidable significant adverse environmental or economic impact on the community, compensatory mitigation shall be required. Compensatory mitigation shall include public amenities, incentives or other public benefits that offset otherwise 10 Staff Report to the Tukwila City Council Sounder Temporary Tukwila Station L99 -0042 & L99 -0043 unmitigated adverse impacts of the essential public facility. Where appropriate, compensatory mitigation shall be provided as close to the affected area as possible. Applicant's response: "Not applicable as the commuter rail station is neither a countywide nor statewide facility nor is it essential except as desired by the community." Staff response: According to City definition (18.06.270 TMC) the proposed rail stop is a basic public service that is provided directly by a government agency and would therefore be subject to compensatory mitigation. 8. For uses in residential areas, applicants shall demonstrate that there is no reasonable nonresidential alternative site for the use. Applicant's response: "Not applicable as there is no residential area near nor adjacent to the site." Staff response: Residential uses are not allowed in this area of the Tukwila Urban Center. 9. For uses in residential areas, applicants shall demonstrate that the use provides some tangible benefit for the neighborhood. Applicant's response: "Not applicable as there is no residential area near nor adjacent to the site." Staff response: Residential uses are not allowed in this area of the Tukwila Urban Center CRITERIA FOR DESIGN REVIEW (TMC 18.60.050) The following criteria shall be considered in all cases (TMC 18.60.050) The City Council may approve the project as proposed, establish conditions on the project approval, or deny the project. 1. Relationship of Structure to Site. a. The site should be planned to accomplish a desirable transition with streetscape and to provide for adequate landscaping and pedestrian movement; b. Parking and service areas should be located, designed and screened to moderate the visual impact of large paved areas; c. The height and scale of each building should be considered in relation to the site. Applicant's response: "a. The site is planned to provide visual access to the commuter rail platforms from the street. The design of the vehicular and pedestrian circulation will indicate the entry to the site. The site is designed with the purposed of safely and conveniently connecting all potential modes of transportation at the commuter rail station. b. The parking area will be screened from the public streets by the railroad embankment. c. No buildings are included in the project." , z F Z` w o0 J w o' 2 u- Q' a. w z�. 1-0 z �.

City standard for traffic lanes that are acceptable for bike traffic is fourteen feet and combined use trail /sidewalk is twelve feet. Access to the station will be difficult for newcomers, as the station is not located on a well- z traveled arterial. Signage to the site will be critical. Sound Transit has proposed the signing i Staff Report to the Tukwila City Council Sounder Temporary Tukwila Station L99 -0042 & L99 -0043 Staff response: No landscaping is proposed as part of this project. Clearing and hydroseeding is proposed for both sides of the BNSF embankment as well as preserving an existing row of trees, located along the east embankment. A six foot wide asphalt path is shown connecting the northbound and southbound platforms. The z path is under the BNSF tracks adjacent to Longacres Way. The BNSF bridge over Longacres , _ Way provides a twelve foot two inch vehicle clearance, which does not meet the City clearance w minimum of 13 feet six inches. Attachment E is a cross section of the pedestrian path. 6 re p J U: 00 The remainder of the circulation occurs within the City of Renton. A bus stop is designed along , u) W Longacres Way just east of the BNSF tracks in the City of Renton. Beyond the bus stop is a kiss w _ and ride located to the east of the parking lot and also in the City of Renton. Passengers being co �;. dropped off and using the kiss and ride will need to cross the entrance /exit to the parking lot. W O` gar 3. Landscaping and Site Treatment. 11. a a. a. Where existing topographic patterns contribute to beauty and utility of a 1- _ development, they should be recognized, preserved and enhanced; z z � 0 b. Grades of walks, parking spaces, terraces and other paved areas should W promote safety and provide an inviting and stable appearance; .2 D, c. Landscape treatment should enhance architectural features, strengthen 0 w vistas and important axis, and provide shade; :a i- d. In locations where plants will be susceptible to injury by pedestrian or motor w w traffic, mitigating steps should be taken; ~ -; u. e. Where building sites limit planting, the placement of trees or shrubs in paved O Z areas is encouraged; v cn' f. Screening of service yards, and other places that tend to be unsightly, should I be accomplished by use of walls, fencing, planting or combination; z g. In areas where general planting will not prosper, other materials such as fences, walls and pavings of wood, brick, stone or gravel may be used; h. Exterior lighting, when used, should enhance the building design and the adjoining landscape. Lighting standards and fixtures should be of a design and size compatible with the building and adjacent area. Lighting should be shielded, and restrained in design. Excessive brightness and brilliant colors should be avoided. Applicant's response: a. "The portions of the site that are in the City of Tukwila is on the BNSF railroad embankment which rises to height of about 15 feet or more above the site to the west. The embankment of the BNSF railroad alignment will be cleared and grubbed with hydroseeding to prevent erosion. b. The paved areas are all designed to provide safe and convenient access to all public areas of the site. c. As the site is temporary in nature, no landscaping will be provided. d. N/A e.

Variety of detail, form and siting should be used to provide visual interest. Applicant's response: N/A - There are no buildings proposed as part of the commuter rail station development except for a small 4x12' ticket vending machine enclosure which will be placed at the base of the slope on the east side within the City of Renton. Staff response: See the discussion below under 5. Miscellaneous Structures and Street Furniture 5. Miscellaneous Structures and Street Furniture. a. Miscellaneous structures and street furniture should be designed to be part of the architectural concept of design and landscape. Materials should be compatible with buildings, scale should be appropriate, colors should be in harmony with buildings and surroundings, and proportions should be to scale. b. Lighting in connection with miscellaneous structures and street furniture should meet the guidelines applicable to site, landscape and buildings. 14 " -ti Staff Report to the Tukwila City Council Sounder Temporary Tukwila Station L99 -0042 & L99 -0043 Applicant's response: "a. The "miscellaneous structures" the canopy shelters are designed to be translucent. Their scale will be compatible with the scale of the site and with the passengers. Street furniture will be primarily benches, trash receptacles and light standards. z b. The lighting will serve to enhance the design of the canopy shelters and provide safety for passengers on the platforms, and in the transit area." Staff response: A passenger shelter is proposed for each of the platforms (Attachment F.) v p Although not in the City of Tukwila but a part of the project is a prefabricated shelter that's N w: proposed to enclose the ticket vending machines (TVM) (Attachment E.) The TVM shelter looks w =: similar to a standard Metro bus shelter with translucent panels for walls and ceiling. u. O: The fixtures and furniture used at the temporary station are functional. The cobra head light fixture is standard and of universal use in street and parking lots but the City's standard is not to install them on wood poles or to allow new overhead electrical lines. _ =u' x_ No other structures have been shown. z !' z 0, CONCLUSIONS Ili. Conclusions regarding the unclassified use criteria, Section 18.66.060 TMC, are as follows. o �! wuf (1) Where appropriate and feasible all facilities shall be undergrounded. v v_ O z, It is not appropriate or feasible to underground the platforms that will be associated with the v �. BNSF rail lines. i= O (2) The proposed use will not be materially detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to the property or improvement in the vicinity. There is a potential security and nuisance issue associated with the adjacent vacant lots that have no regular informal or formal surveillance and cannot be seen from the platforms. If access to the vacant 32 acres between the railroad tracks could be secured then the proposed use will not be detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to the property or improvement in the vicinity. Special provisions will also have to be made so that aid and fire equipment can traverse the gate on Boeing property at any time. (3) The proposed use shall meet or exceed the same standards for parking, landscaping, yards and other development regulations that are required in the district it will occupy. Landscaping a temporary, three year facility would not be prudent. Adequate access and lighting of the access to the temporary improvements are minimum requirements for the safe use of the temporary station. Drainage, pavement, channelization, signage, and illumination improvements need to be made of Longacres Way that accommodates pedestrians, cyclists and vehicles. 15 ,. z Staff Report to the Tukwila City Council Sounder Temporary Tukwila Station L99 -0042 & L99 -0043 (4) The proposed development shall be compatible generally with the surrounding land uses. The proposed development will generally be acceptable with the surrounding land uses as a temporary improvement. (5) The proposed development shall to the maximum extend t feasible be consistent with and promote the goals objective and policies of the Comprehensive Land use Policy Plan and applicable adopted area plans. The proposed improvement does not provide bold architectural form or distinctive imagery. The temporary station reflects a minimal investment in public and civic amenities. (6) The proposed unclassified use shall to the maximum extent feasible mitigate all significant adverse environmental impacts on public and private properties. Full consideration shall be given to: a. alternative locations and /or routes that reduce or eliminate adverse impact; & b. alternative designs that reduce or eliminate adverse impacts. There are no alternative locations that would reduce significant adverse impacts from the proposed temporary improvements. (7) In the event that a proposed essential public facility creates an unavoidable significant adverse environmental or economic impact on the community, compensatory mitigation shall be required. Compensatory mitigation shall include public amenities, incentives or other public benefits that offset otherwise unmitigated adverse impacts of the essential public facility. Where appropriate, compensatory mitigation shall be provided as close to the affected area as possible. Significant adverse environmental or economic impact on the community is not anticipated due to the temporary station. 8. For uses in residential areas, applicants shall demonstrate that there is no reasonable nonresidential alternative site for the use. 9. For uses in residential areas, applicants shall demonstrate that the use provides some tangible benefit for the neighborhood. The above two criteria are not applicable since there are no residential areas next to the proposal. Conclusions regarding the design review criteria, Section 18.60.050 TMC, are as follows: (1) Relationship of Structure to Site. A landscaped transition between the commuter rail platforms and the street is not proposed. The asphalt path connecting to the sidewalk in Longacres Way provides for the anticipated pedestrian movements. There are no buildings and the parking area is in the City of Renton. z ~w re 2 J 0 O 0: u) w W cn- w, w O: g • Q. co = a. w Z F.. I- O. Z 111 uj. moo. U ON ,w wI z w 1-IL O z Staff Report to the Tukwila City Council Sounder Temporary Tukwila Station L99 -0042 & L99 -0043 (2) Relationship of Structure and Site to Adjoining Area. The design character of the adjacent neighborhood is very mixed; however, the trend generated by new development is of campus office park and high -rise motel development. This new development is designed with a combination of synthetic building materials in simple modern forms. The proposed mix of unrelated materials- untreated wood, glass, clear acrylic, fiberglass, chain link, treated wood poles etc. is not consistent with evolving neighborhood character. _ W. 00 CO 111, w =; J I-• w g co n 1 w. Z t— O. Z H. 0 C1!. ON. ;o w w H U` wra O. wZ z The location of the kiss and ride to the far east, albeit in the City of Renton, causes a conflict between pedestrians and vehicles. For a time, motorists will use the Sound Transit parking area as a turn around until they eventually learn that Longacres Way is a dead end and will only be open to through traffic during certain hours. A drop off area adjacent to south edge of Longacres Way in the City of Tukwila would minimize the conflict between the drop -off passengers and the vehicles parking in the parking lot. The width of Longacres Way or the width of the asphalt pedestrian path should be widened, to allow combined bike and pedestrian or bike and motor vehicle use. Strategically placed signage will be required on Longacres Way to notify motorists that there is no turnaround and limited height clearance. (3) Landscaping and Site Treatment. Hydroseeding the embankment is typically a temporary erosion control measure. The railroad embankment is very steep where plant material is not easily established. The grade of the platforms, ramps and stairs meet City standards and will provide stable, accessible surfaces between the platforms and street. The proposed lighting, while sufficient from a safety standpoint, is not compatible with other construction materials or design forms used on the site and does not meet City standards. The intent of the project is to be functional and temporary and to minimize short term expenses in order to maintain sufficient budget for long term solutions that will support a joint public / private development of the site. (4) Building Design. No buildings are proposed in association with the station. (5) Miscellaneous Structures and Street Furniture. The clear acrylic and fiberglass skin on the shelters will allow some natural and artificial light to penetrate. The proposed framework for the passenger shelters, untreated lumber, could be simply improved. The untreated wood frame will weather irregularly and could also carry typical lumber insignia. The improvements and project in general are designed and intended to be expedient and functional rather than well designed. Again, the intent of the project is to be functional and 17 Staff Report to the Tukwila City Council Sounder Temporary Tukwila Station L99 -0042 & L99 -0043 temporary and to minimize short term expenses in order to maintain sufficient budget for long term solutions that will support a joint public / private development of the site. RECOMMENDATIONS Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the findings and conclusions of the staff report and approve an unclassified use permit for a rail station at 7301 Longacres Way for the proposed time period of February 2001 — February 2004 and subject to these additional conditions. 1. Improve Longacres Way in a manner acceptable to the City of Tukwila Public Works including signage, accommodation for cyclists, channelization, illumination and drainage. 2. Provide and maintain trash receptacles on the platforms and adjacent to TVM. 3. Provide an additional kiss and ride area west of the BNSF bridge on ST property on the south side of Longacres Way. (Attachment H) 4. Control vehicular access to the properties to the north and south of Longacres Way between UP and BNSF through a fence or some other means.

Date: 11/14/00 8:23PM Subject: ACTION: Tukwila Building Permit -- Drainage + Moira, The following text is drawn from the attached memo from the design team which expresses our understanding of what the City is looking for in addressing the flooding concerns. Items #1, #3, and #4 will be included in the drawing that we'll submit to you on the 15th as promised. Item #2 will be added to our RFP for the maintenance contract. This RFP is under development but when its complete (about mid - January), I will copy you to document that ST will have the sump maintained. I hope that this will not hold up the permits. Item #5 is future work and is addressed in the drafts of the MOA between ST and the City regarding Sounder (was in earlier "Link" MOA drafts). The hope is to have the Sounder MOA signed by late February. John McFarland is deeply involved in the negotiations. I assume that the issuing of the permits will not be held up on this MOA as this will be signed after the station opening. For signage, the "clearance" and "not thru street" type signs are on the updated drawing but the locations of the trailblazers need City input (we can place up to 10 if really needed). We're also talking to the Embassy Suites about locating our main Station Name sign on their property (looks promising so far). Finally, are there any other concerns by the City? When can we expect a comment sheet on our building permit set? Please contact Dan directly if you have any questions on the design drawings, me for all of the other type issues. Also, when would it be a good time to meet regarding the trailblazers? Thanks, Jeff Harvinder, Please add notes to the drawing stating "Clean the existing drainage system under the UP trestle ". Also, the permanent pump and electrical improvements must be included in the drawings. Dan, Harvinder, Please get the final drawings to Moira directly as I'm tied up in meetings all day Wednesday. Linda, Bob, Please note the item about maintaining the sump at Tukwila. I'll need a copy of the RFP portion dealing with the sump to assure the City that we will follow through on our promise. • �. f061,i6. idvf,K-5 j Moira Bradshaw- ACTION: Tukwila Buil-J-,qg Permit -- Drainage + Page 21 Thanks All! Per my telephone conversation with John Howitt and Brian Shelton from City of Tukwila, to resolve the issue of flooding under UP, We need to accomplish the following; 1. Clean the existing drainage system under the UP trestle. This has not been done for the past 2 to 3 years. 2. Will have to regularly maintain it and perform tests to check if the existing drainage system works. 3. Overlay from Nelson Place to BNSF. The existing Longacres St. never got the final lift of overlay. The slotted drains under the UP trestle are 2" above the existing grade and do not collect any roadway runoff. All the catch basins grate inlets are also above grade. 4. Provide a permanent pump station with electric service panel that meets the code requirements. The existing one is a temporary setup. 5. Will need to install a 48" culvert under BNSF tracks before the permanent station is constructed. The culvert xing is approximately % mile to the north of Longacres St. Also, John Howitt mentioned that if Sound Transit takes the responsibility of maintaining the drainage, they will feel much more comfortable in issuing the permit.

The following summarizes the City's responses to those questions. Nelson Place The City is willing to work with Sound Transit (ST) along Nelson Place regarding accesses to the individual business. ST can set up the meetings and the City will send a representative. We have checked our electronic files and have no base maps of the right- of -way or existing improvements, other than the drawing sent to you on November 3, 1999. ST will need to develop drawings to show the proposed Nelson Place improvements as well as changes in business access and circulation. Due to right -of -way limitations, Nelson Place curb to curb width should be 24 feet wide (2 —12 foot lanes.) The sidewalk on the west side, drainage and lighting should meet the City's commercial access standards (RS -1 and RS -4) per the City's Infrastructure, Design and Construction Standards (Enclosed.) The drawings should include a profile along Nelson Pl. and typical cross sections. The jersey barrier along the eastern curb edge should be removed and salvaged to the City.

Valley Hwy to the UP western right -of -way should include overlay, curb, gutter, sidewalk, drainage and lighting meeting the City's commercial access standards. The overlay limits should extend from West Valley Hwy to the UP right -of way. A Latecomer Agreement for this section is available to you to recoup proportional costs from other affected frontal properties. Transit patrons will use the north side of the access easement between proposed Lot 1 and Lot 2, from the western UP right -of -way to the western BNSF right -of -way. The City expects ST to install curb, gutter, sidewalk, drainage and lighting on the north side. Since this is a private road, the only standard City expects ST to meet is the 0.8 foot - candles and the 3:1 uniformity standards for commercial/industrial streets. For this section from the western UP right - of-way to the western BNSF right -of -way, ST will need to arrange cost sharing per the terms of their agreement with the owner of proposed Lot 1. 1 Plan Sheet A -1 (5/17/99) shows a 35 -foot roadway easement that conflicts with the language of "Reciprocal Easements for Ingress, Egress and Utilities," which specifies 20 feet to either side of the centerline of Longacres Way if extended. Strander WSDOT contacts for the W. Valley Intersection coordination are Mark Bandy, Assistant Area Traffic Engineer (206) 440 -4352 and John Merrimom, Signal Maintenance Supervisor, (206) 764 -4010. Please keep Robin Tischmak, Associate Engineer for City of Tukwila (206) 433 -0179 in the loop. Please provide us with the name of the ST person who will be handling this issue so that we may contact him/her. The plans for Strander should show the centerlines of all new roadway work, within ST property and along Strander. The new sidewalk along Strander and the road on ST property should meet and match the existing sidewalk. The plans should provide a connection for the Interurban Trail across Strander. The curb, gutter, sidewalk, roadway and drainage improvements along Strander should meet the City's commercial standards (RS -1 and RS -24). The design should include roadway cross - sections designed per geotechnical recommendations. Strander Access Easement and Circulation Drive The access road improvements should include a 6' sidewalk on one side only (I suggest the east), a 4 foot shoulder, minimum 12 foot lanes, and drainage. Lighting and uniformity should meet the City's commercial/industrial standards, RS -4 in the City's infrastructure manual. The design should include roadway cross - sections designed per geotechnical recommendations. Page 2 of 2 ;f- w J U' O O': 0) 0. w =: CO IL w O` g -J co w z �.

General I received a copy of an updated address from one of the surrounding property owners. I am forwarding it on to you. As we had discussed earlier, your list of adjacent property owners and residents does not appear to include businesses that may not be owners. Please provide us with an updated copy of the mailing list. Enclosed is a packet of information describing the turnover process. The turnover process begins about three weeks before the completion of each public infrastructure component that ST builds. For example, the turnover for Strander improvements begins about three weeks before these improvements are completed. You may want to familiarize yourself with the requirements early on, so that any issues can be resolved prior to ST deadlines.

This is a summary of our meeting and our understanding of the action items as a result of the discussion. Nelson Place The City thinks that safety improvements to Nelson Place are in order to accommodate commuter rail traffic. This is not a concurrency issue, but a direct impact issue. Heffron estimates that half the Longacres Way peak p.m. trips might use Nelson Place for outbound trips. According to Tod McBryan, and City traffic counts, this number will add to a typical hourly p.m. volume of 11. The City has completed a preliminary layout and design for the street and will review the document to provide more detailed comments on appropriate safety improvements. A Icopy of those plans are enlcosed. Longacres Way Sound Transit will provide a plan sheet that extends from the Union Pacific (UP) right of way to West Valley Highway. ST agreed that the portion of their site between the Puget 6300 Southcenter Boulevard, Suite #100 • Tukwila, Washington 98188 • (206) 431-3670 • Fax (206) 431-3665 : clx)- 021-ui ecio-to NAN ( ei Power right of way and the UP right of way should be dedicated as public right of way ST would like to include channelization, signage, and improvements for the south side of the right of way. The limits of an overlay were discussed. The City Engineer deferred a decision until he makes a site inspection. The Transportation Analysis, (May 17, 1999) and previous environmental analysis refer to a fully improved roadway along Longacres Way including sidewalks. Specifically, "Longacres Way is currently in poor condition and would need to be reconstructed and channelized to support the project related traffic. This access improvement would be pursued by sound Transit in conjunction with other benefited property owners." (Sound Transit December 1997) What reason does ST have for not improving the north side of the street? ' -�-�,v -�� Strander Confusion exists among the Sound Transit consultant design team as to how Strander will be used. The transportation consultant showed the street as providing full access to commuters and transit whereas KPFF, the site engineers, assumed that it was to be for emergency and transit access only. It was agreed that signalization coordination should occur between the UP crossing and the Strander /West Valley signal. o n - -- M eo.2— pr44-c. -& . Tukwila's request of Sound Transit has been that two access points to the site will be required. An at -grade railroad crossing will be allowed as a temporary solution with the understanding that an extension of Strander into the City of Renton will provide a long term separated crossing that will be accommodated by ST. ,l� kra rok W VoCM-4/( Storm Drainage KPFF will include a summary of the downstream drainage investigation in the Technical Information Report. The City agreed that Level 1 flow control is appropriate for the downstream conditions. The designers assert that the four storm detention ponds shown meet City standards. Sound Transit will install the 48 inch pipe connecting the site with the improvements downstream (within Renton city limits). ciadA)y'/51ebitiu-o-tv- Yr. Planning considers the location and use of storm ponds adjacent to the entrance to be a poor design solution. The City asked if the existing drainage system could be reconfigured in the future to allow another solution such as off site detention. We discussed the option of relocating above ground storm detention north of the site, which could work because the flood plain does not extend all the way to I -405. The Phase two pond location and design was also discussed. KPFF said that the Phase two ponds are a preliminary design. Once the plans are approved, the City explained that the City Council may need to be involved again to approve changes, depending on the degree of change.

The existing permit expires on February 28, 2003. Sound Transit asks to extend the permit for a total of three years, to February 28, 2007, with the option to extend by one - year increments until February 28, 2012, with the Mayor's approval. As we have discussed, Sound Transit requires the extension in order to accommodate the efforts of the City of Renton to develop a strategy and secure funding for the Strander Boulevard Grade Separation Project. Sound Transit is now ready to begin construction of the permanent station; however, we have agreed with the City of Renton to postpone construction of the permanent station for up to nine more years. During this time, we intend to coordinate planning of the Transit Oriented Development with the City of Tukwila. The Strander Boulevard Grade Separation Project and the City of Tukwila's Transit Oriented Development plans will likely trigger the need for a review of our current design and, potentially, a complete re- design of the permanent station. Included with this request for permit extension is a description of the current temporary station and a sequence of activities, events and milestones that would take place, assuming Sound Transit designs a revised permanent station. Existing temporary commuter rail station: The platforms at Sounder's temporary Tukwila Commuter Rail Station are located within the Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railway (BNSF) right -of -way just south of Longacres Way. The supporting park -and- ride lot, passenger load zone, and bus stops are east of the platforms on the Boeing Longacres site, which is in the City of Renton.

The platforms are adjacent to the tracks at the top of the existing embankment, which is approximately 15 feet above the ground level in this location. The platforms have canopy shelters for commuter rail passengers. Ticket vending machines and other passenger information are located at the northwest corner of the parking area. Benches and trash receptacles are provided on the platforms. Pedestrian connection from one side of the tracks to the other is made by way of the underpass at the railroad bridge that crosses Longacres Way (South 158th Street). Stairs and ramps connect the platform level to the ground level parking lot, bus transit area and pedestrian ways. Sounder's temporary Tukwila Station is currently in use, with service scheduled as follows: Northbound — (M -F) 6:54 a.m., 7:09 a.m., 7:24 a.m. Southbound — (M -F) 5:11 p.m., 5:26 p.m., 5:51 p.m. Schedule for design and construction of permanent commuter rail station: The following scenario represents a best case or optimal schedule of activities that might be realized in the next three years. As discussed during our meeting on December 16, 2003, the City of Renton has committed to Boeing to resolve the Union Pacific Railway relocation, and reflect such in the 30% design of the Strander Boulevard Grade Separation Project by early summer 2004. As soon as this milestone is reached or is imminent, Sound Transit will begin the design procurement process. Design procurement duration is expected to be 11 to 15 months for achievement of final design. Construction procurement will follow achievement of final design and is expected to take 4 months. Construction of the permanent facility will range from 14 to 24 months. If the final selection for the Strander Boulevard Grade Separation Project calls for relocation of the Union Pacific Railway and a property swap between Sound Transit and the Union Pacific Railway, the start of Sound Transit's work may be impacted. At this time, it is unclear if work could start before completion of the real estate transaction. Currently, Sound Transit's property is a known entity, whereas the property of the Union Z ZI w JU U O; co `cnw: w= • W 0. u-¢ • N a • • I— =.

You need to be aware that my investigations into the possible closure of Longacres Way are really my own initiative, and do not reflect any policy nor direction from my clients. I have been looking into this possibility since BNSF mentioned that they would just as soon take out the bridge permanently. I have also discussed the Longacres Way situation with Boeing and Sound Transit. Neither had given thought to the potential closure, but both promised to take a look at the situation and how closure might impact their projects. For example, a Longacres Way connection is not in the current Binding Site Plan for the Boeing Longacres property, but this may just be an oversite on their part. If we do not have to cross over Longacres Way, the Strander project will save a significant amount of money as we would not have to construct a new bridge to carry the relocated UPRR. This action would reduce the overall cost of the Strander project, and could make it somewhat easier to get our funding package in place. Strander is an expensive project, and we are looking for whatever cost reductions we can make while maintaining the project function. Further, the existing bridge has only 11.5 feet of vertical clearance, while the railroad standards call for a 17 foot vertical clearance. My fear is that when we build a new bridge, we could be required to give it full vertical clearance. Depending on the physical relationship of the new bridge to the existing structures, we could then be into the need to reconstruct the entire crossing at a tremendous increase in project costs.

The success of obtaining funding for extending Strander Boulevard under the railroad tracks may depend on closing the Longacres Way bridge under the railroad tracks. As I understand, the rational is that it is a substandard bridge right now undemeath the tracks, and if the UP and BNSF tracks are consolidated, a third track would need to cross at that location, and that new track bridge would need to be constructed to standards. This is expensive, and would create the same type of underpass as at Strander, where the road would need to dip under the railroad tracks. Primarily due to the expense of replacing the railroad bridge over Longacres Way, the Strander Team is looking to get rid of the Longacres connection under the railroad tracks. I know on the urban design team, we wanted this underpass to remain, but we should be cognizant of what may be necessary to make the Strander extension a reality. That's it for now.

CDBG Funds for Plavground Equipment Some CDBG money from 2001 has not been used yet, and Evie proposed using it to buy new playground equipment at Foster Park. CDBG money was to have been used for Cascade Park and then for Duwamish sidewalks, but the requirements for complying with federal restrictions on the funds made them more applicable to the playground equipment. The equipment needs to be replaced, and it is heavily used, so it's important to make it fully compliant with ADA requirements. Recommend to Council for approval. 2. CDBG Pass - Through Each year the City must decide whether or not to accept CDBG funds and comply with the rules for its use. A portion of the funds will be put towards human services, planning and administration, and capital. The County would like to know how much Housing Repair the City will budget. Because the 2002 money wasn't used for utility connections or Cascade View Park, that money can be re- allocated, and Evie had proposed some strategies for using it. Joe asked how long the City has to use unspent funds. Evie said capital project funds are supposed to be finished two years after the funds are received. Evie expects the City to get about $226,449 in 2003 funds. Recommend to COW and Council for approval. 3. Foster Golf Course Improvements When Parks called for bids on improving the golf course, six of the firms replying used Berger as a subcontractor. The Berger Partnership did the landscape architecture and site planning for the recently adopted six year plan. The Clubhouse Committee decided that the Berger Partnership would be the best firm to design the renovation of holes # 1, #8, and #9, plus relocating the putting green. Recommend to COW and Council for mayor to negotiate scope of work. 4. Housing and Employment Targets Cities set goals for housing targets in 1992 in order to meet Growth Management Planning goals. Tukwila's goal was very optimistic, and was based on an assumption that most houses would have mother -in -law units within to accommodate more people. We came nowhere near meeting our goal of 5,388 units. Those targets are now being refined and reconsidered for the period 2002 -2022. One of the issues the group of planning directors who have been dealing with this issue-have thought, is whether a subgroup of the county could have its overall goals met, thereby absolving each city of specific goals. Therefore, South King County's overall goal might be met by some cities taking more growth than predicted, thereby allowing a little less housing needed in other cities. The Buildable Lands movement has encouraged taking another look at targets, and as a result Tukwila's new housing unit target has moved down to 3,201 new units by 2022. We would still have a remaining housing deficit of 185 homes. Steve said he thought we could find room for eigz / 01 z w a_I U0 CI J 1- W0 g Q. (d: _. zF 1- 0: Z F: LU U• � O DI o I-' =0 _ z ui U N. 1- FL- 0 z 185 units. The planning group has briefed most entities on the plan, which is to be voted on at Growth Management Planning Council May 22nd. The plan would then go to King County, and to the individual cities. 30% of the cities representing 70% of the population would need to approve the new targets. Housing targets are based on predicted jobs in an area. Buildable Lands target employment statistics are based on PSRC, and are necessarily quite rough. For example, they do not take into consideration Boeing's pullout of the region, taking away 10,000 Boeing workers from Tukwila alone. Tukwila was predicted to have capacity in 2000 for 10,100 new jobs between 2000 -2022. GMPC, on the other hand, had predicted our capacity in 2000 for employment was about 16,000 jobs. Information. 5. Commuter Rail Station Temporary Use permit: Sound Transit's current permit will expire in 2004. The proposed permanent station is not much better than the current temporary station, and staff would like to discuss options with Sound Transit. Some of the options would make Transit Oriented Development more feasible. Recommend the item be moved to COW for further discussion. 6. Link Light Rail Memorandum of Agreement. This MOA is between the City and Sound Transit for LINK light rail. It sets out rules for plan review and permitting, and incorporates much of what is already standard operating procedure for Tukwila. Approval of the MOA does not constitute approval of the project itself. Pam asked whether this project is subject to sales tax. Steve agreed to find out and inform committee members. Refer to Council for Public Meeting on 5/28. 7. 2002 First Ouarter Reports: Committee reviewed reports and complimented staff on doing - a great job. Information. 8. Resolution Authorizing Application for Funding Assistance: Bruce presented the resolution, which is to support a grant application for Poverty Hill. The resolution will be included in the application to the Department of Natural Resources, and has a short turnaround time. Pam inquired as to whether the Aquatic Lands Enhancement Account (ALFA) is funded from dedicated revenues or comes from general funds revenue. Bruce agreed to have the answer to that question before the resolution is passed. Refer to Regular Meeting on 5/20. z ■ Z: ue J U; U 0'.

This permit will expire in early 2004. Sound Transit has indicated they will need to begin final design within the next few months in order to have a permanent station in place by the time their temporary permit expires. One of the advantages to the City of having permitted the temporary station has been to prevent a permanent station.from being built that may be incompatible with future transit - oriented development of the area. Since we are still in the early stages of developing a master plan for the area's future development, continuation of the status quo for some additional time may be desirable. We would like to begin discussions with the City Council as to your willingness to consider an extension of the temporary station permit.

Sound Transit DRAFT May 8, 2002 The Parties recognize and agree that an Unclassified Use Permit ( "UUP ") must be approved by the City in order to grant land use approval for the Project. In order to meet the Schedule Objectives and Target Dates set forth in Section 7.3, below, the City agrees to conduct early plan review as set forth in this Section 5.0. Such Plan Review may run concurrently with the City's review of a UUP application; provided, however, the Parties recognize that the City cannot complete review of the 100% Plan Submittal unless the City has approved a UUP for the Project. The Parties further recognize that City comments on plan review may change as a result of changes in the Project Scope, or other mitigation measures or conditions of approval imposed consistent with the Agreement, resulting from City review of the UUP. 5.1 Project Plan Review. Sound Transit is committed to developing a quality design for the Project. In order to avoid delays in the Project, the City and Sound Transit shall work together to provide for the City's informal review of Project plan submittals in accordance with the milestones identified in Subsection 7.3, below, the provision of City comments, and Sound Transit response. In undertaking this plan review, the City shall provide clear and complete reviews from all involved departments and avoid last- minute review comments and the imposition of last- minute requirements after the review comment period. Both Parties shall endeavor to identify and address issues as early as possible during the review process and to communicate clearly with each other.

City Departmental Representatives responsible for City permits and approvals will hold pre - application conferences with Sound Transit representatives to explain permitting requirements and processes. At these conferences, Sound Transit will schedule opportunities for appropriate staff to participate in the design effort. Pre - application conferences will be held in the City offices. C. Parallel Processes. Sound Transit and the City will emphasize the use of parallel processes in their respective roles in Project development. Appropriate City departments will timely consider and review Project permit applications, including simultaneous review of a building permit application (or applications). The City, in its discretion, may agree to review building permits in phases to allow certain preliminary site work to begin while other design work is still being completed, provided that applicable land use and environmental requirements have been met. This agreement shall not be unreasonably withheld. The City will assist Sound Transit in establishing the most expeditious strategy for completing land use and building permit review, consistent with applicable laws and ordinances. 7.2 Expedited Processing of Requests for Street, Right of Way, or Easement Vacations. The Parties anticipate that vacation of City streets, rights -of- way or easements may be necessary to provide appropriate site(s) for Project facilities. Expedited submittal and review of vacation petitions will therefore be critical to keeping the Project on schedule. If necessary, Sound Transit will submit, and the City will review, pre - petition street vacation filings to expedite the review process. The City's appropriate Departmental Representative, in cooperation with Sound Transit, will coordinate and facilitate expedited petition and pre - petition circulation through City departments and others on the City's distribution list for street vacations. If necessary, the Parties may develop a more specific street vacation agreement following this Agreement.

The Freeway Route alignment alternative begins at the north end of the at -grade to elevated 2 transition on Martin Luther King Jr. Way S., near the boundary between the City of Seattle and g 5` LL Q; the City of Tukwila. From here, the alignment proceeds south in the median of Martin Luther N D: King Jr. Way S. to the intersection with Boeing Access Road. The alignment then turns west = W' crosses over 1 -5 and proceeds west, crossing over the BNSF/UP railroad tracks. Z m. Near E. Marginal Way S. South, the alignment turns south and proceeds on aerial structure along z 0 the west side of E. Marginal Way S. The columns supporting the aerial structure would be placed 2 D just inside of the street right -of -way. Existing overhead utilities along the west side of the right- v N of -way will require relocation, and the high voltage power lines crossing the alignment south of 0 _;. 01-- South 112th Street must be raised to provide required clearance above the LRT catenary. _ w w m F- V Proceeding south, the aerial trackway will cross over the frontage of the Ray Carrossino LL- p Farmstead. From here, the alignment will cross the Duwamish River on a new long span bridge tii Z, with supports located outside the 100 -year flood limits. The alignment proceeds south on aerial 0 structure, crossing over E. Marginal Way S. and SR -599 and continues south along the west side . �` of SR -599. After crossing over the on -ramp from the King County Metro bus maintenance base, Z the alignment would descend to a retained cut/fill configuration. This configuration allows a 22- foot wide separation between the edge of the pavement of SR -599 and the LRT retaining walls to allow for future road widening The alignment proceeds south along SR -599 crossing over 42 "d Avenue South and the SR -599 off and on -ramps to South 133`d Street. From here, the alignment continues south in a retained cut/fill configuration joining the I -5 right -of way on the west side. At the South 1441h Street overcrossing of I -5, the alignment will pass under the bridge requiring the removal and reconstruction of the bridge end slope. Near South 151st Street, the alignment would ascend to an elevated configuration and turn west. The alignment would cross over 52 "d Avenue S. and 50°i Avenue South and continue west within the SR-518 right -of -way on tall structures varying in height from 40 to 80 feet above the existing ground. Near the existing Ajax parking lot, the alignment will turn toward north and leave the SR -518 right -of -way to accommodate the proposed reconstruction of the SR- 518/SR -99 interchange. An aerial side - platform station would be provided just to the east of International Blvd. (SR -99) on the site of the existing Ajax Parking lot. The station would include a park- and -ride lot. The alignment terminates just past the platform allowing for a future extension to the west and south. Crossover tracks would be required along the Freeway Route alignment consistent with those planned for the Project. The crossover locations would be east of the 154t Station platform in the City of Tukwila and in the tangent section just north of South 133rd Street in the City of Tukwila. In addition, the segment would contain three traction power substations (TPSS), located at the intersection of Boeing Access Road with E. Marginal Way; near S. 133rd Street and at the South 154th Street Station. The alignment will be designed and built in a manner that will not preclude future potential rail extensions to the Tukwila Urban Center and points beyond consistent with the Central Puget Sound Regional Transit Authority "The Regional Transit Long -Range Vision." (May 31, 19996). S. 154th Street Station The Tukwila Freeway Route alternative contains one aerial station located on property between S. 154th Street and SR -518, just east of International Blvd. (SR -99). The 154'x' Street Station is in the City of Tukwila on the site of an existing private parking business between SR -518 and S. 154th Street, as illustrated in Figure 1. The site for the proposed South 154th Street Station slopes down 50 feet in intermittent steps in a southeasterly direction from International Blvd. High visibility and access ease from different modes of transportation can be achieved by creating an entry plaza and enclosed Fare Paid Zone at -grade adjacent to International Blvd. The entry would be located approximately 20 feet above the adjacent parking lot and about 2 feet higher than the existing intersection of South 154th Street and International Blvd. Patrons arriving on foot or transferring from buses on International Blvd. would enter the station via a gently sloping plaza leading to an enclosed entrance. Glass enclosed elevators would flank both sides of a wide entrance into the Fare Paid Zone, containing system information and ticket vending machines. Elevators, stairs, or escalators ascending 25 feet would access the train platforms. Each platform will have a set of emergency egress stairs located at the opposite end. Access to the park- and -ride lot below would be via the northerly elevator adjacent to the disabled parking zone or by dual escalators and stairs rising approximately 22 feet. The location of the vertical elements underneath the right -of -way above could provide an additional means of weather protection. EXHIBIT B Record of Decision ATTACHMENT E Summary of Required Mitigation Measures • Central Link Light Rail Transit Project Central Puget Sound Regional Transit Authority (Sound Transit) DRAFT 05/09/0203/27/0201/1 1/0201 /1 1/0212/28/01 Og '23 01 Introduction This mitigation plan describes Central Puget Sound Regional Transit Authority's (Sound Transit's) mitigation requirements for the Central Link Light Rail Project as imposed by the Record of Decision (ROD). These mitigation requirements (sometimes hereinafter called "mitigation measures" or "mitigation commitments ") shall and must be implemented by Sound Transit if construction is undertaken. Failure to do so will constitute a material deviation or violation of the tetnns and conditions of the ROD. In general, where the mitigation measures have not been incorporated in the project design, Sound Transit shall implement or provide funding for the implementation of the mitigation measures outlined here. The mitigation commitments identified below are based on the potential mitigation measures identified in the Central Link Final EIS (November 1999), in the Tukwila Freeway Route Supplemental Final EIS (October 2001) and the Initial Seement Environmental Assessment (February 5, 2002. Mitigation measures associated with the operation of the light rail system are described first (Section 1). Mitigation measures associated with the construction of the system are described second (Section 2). Operational mitigation measures are divided into two broad categories in the text below: 1) those measures that have already been incorporated into the project design for the preferred alternative; and 2) additional mitigation commitments to avoid or minimize impacts. The first category reflects those measures that have been integrated into the project as a result of on -going efforts to optimize the design of the preferred alternative. Both categories of mitigation measures are designed to avoid or minimize potential impacts Sound Transit is required to continue to work to solve problems and reduce the impact of the project through good design and other measures as the project proceeds. 1 Operational 1 Long -Term Mitigation 1.1 TRANSPORTATION 1.1.1 Common to all segments Mitigation Features of the Preferred Alternative To improve non - motorized access, Sound Transit will work with local public transportation agencies, communities and local governments to place and design transit facilities that fit with local community plans. These facilities will include improvements within one -half mile of each station for safe, easy pedestrian and bicycle access, consistent with existing Sound Transit policy recommendations. Generally, new sidewalks will he provided only on Sound Transit property and adjacent to stations. •ent to liuht rail station property will be provided. At a minimum, existing sidewalk widths will be maintained and any improvements will be sufficiently wide to accommodate pedestrian volumes from light rail and will be designed to conform to City standards. New sidewalks will not be constructed for the entire area within ?,- rat ='/_ mile of stations. Generally. new With respect to bicycles at all new stations /facilities, Sound Transit will: • Design facilities at new stations to provide ample space for maneuvering bicycles in and through stations and on to vehicles. • Provide a mix of storage lockers and racks. • Provide storage areas open to circulation, on direct paths from access points, but not impeding pedestrian and vehicular traffic flows. • Designate areas, where possible, for storage expansion to accommodate bicycle ridership increases.

Hide - and -ride parking impacts and mitigation refer to the potential for some light rail users to use unrestricted on- street parking in neighborhoods to access light rail stations. Hide - and -ride parking impacts will be mitigated through a number of locally appropriate measures including new or expanded residential parking zones (RPZs), hourly and day of week parking restrictions, parking meters, monitoring of use, enforcement and public education campaigns. RPZs are generally applicable on residential streets with greater than 75 percent parking utilization, while parking restriction signs and meters are more applicable in commercial business areas. The potential for hide - and -ride and the best ways to mitigate the impact are unique to each individual station area. Sound Transit will conduct additional parking surveys of on- street unrestricted parking supply within 1/4 -mile to 2,000 ft radius of most proposed station locations approximately six months or less prior to light rail system opening. All stations will be surveyed on two consecutive weekdays. The average of these two days will be used for the before /after parking survey comparison. Table 1.1 -1 summarizes parking survey parameters by station. Approximately six months after light rail system opening, Sound Transit will repeat the surveys described above for all locations and times. In cases where on- street parking utilization is greater than 90 percent, the surveys after system opening will focus on whether utilization is increasing in areas greater than 1/4 -mile from that station. Parking surveys will be collected on two consecutive weekdays similar to the surveys conducted before the light rail system opens. The results of all surveys will be used to identify mitigation measures. Mitigation measures will be identified on a case -by -case basis for all locations where parking surveys show that 50 percent or more of unutilized parking spaces prior to light rail implementation are utilized after light rail begins operation. For example, if a block face shows a parking utilization rate of 60 percent before light rail implementation and a utilization of 80 percent or greater after light rail implementation, Sound Transit will identify potential mitigation measures. This increase threshold will be used for each block face to assess whether mitigation should be considered. For locations exceeding the parking utilization threshold, Sound Transit will work midland the local jurisdictional-staff-fowl II toeether determine the appropriate mitigation for each block face, if any. For locations where the mitigation is accepted and approved by City staff and local community or neighborhood groups, Sound Transit will provide proportional funding for direct start-up costs of mitigation proportional to the increase in parking related to the Tight rail project. In the case of residential parking zones, Sound Transit expects the affected city to recoup on -going monitoring, enforcement, education, and other operating costs from parking fines and permit fees.

W 2.t o i 41 The light rail system will include the following design features to enhance safety and minimize any risk or exposure to traffic accidents along at -grade routes where the track -way runs within a roadway: • Signs and pavement markings to advise vehicle drivers not to encroach on to the trackway area; • Lighting along the all at -grade routes; • Lighting all corners of signalized intersections (auto and pedestrian signals) along the at -grade routes; • Clear delineation between the adjacent street and trackway that will be visual and tactile; • Operating trains at speeds within the speed limit of the adjacent street on at -grade segments; • Safe pedestrian crossing locations; • Operating a high- intensity light on the train during all operating times; An active traffic control system that may consist of gates, signals, and audio warning devices to notify pedestrians and motorists of an oncoming train; and • An intensive public information program to create awareness and discuss possible safety features.

Intersection operations would improve from LOS E to LOS D with all light rail alternatives in 2020 by converting the signal to a five -phase signal and optimizing signal timing. This improvement would likely require some additional signal hardware (for overlapping eastbound right turn) and some signal controller modifications. Under the No -build scenario, the N.E. 100th Street/First Avenue N.E. intersection would operate at LOS C in 2010 and LOS F in 2020. With the light rail alternatives, delay would increase further. The combination of very large pedestrian volumes crossing First Avenue N.E. and new (conflicting) westbound -to- northbound right turns result in operational failure at the N.E. 100th Street/First Avenue N.E. intersection. Three possible mitigation options were evaluated and depending upon which option is selected, Sound Transit shall provide the mitigation measures called for: 1. The intersection would operate at LOS C with all light rail alternatives if a pedestrian bridge or tunnel is constructed over First Avenue N.E. Based on the forecast traffic volumes, a three -phase signal should operate well. Phasing would occur as follows: Phase 1, eastbound and westbound would proceed with permissive lefts in both directions (as exists today); Phase 2, southbound lefts, thrus, and rights would proceed with overlapping westbound 4 DRAFT 05109 /0203'27:9'201'1I'"201. 11.0212L2t t >luse-4-44-4- 4C rights; Phase 3, southbound lefts (perniissive), thrus and rights would proceed with northbound thrus and rights. This improvement will likely require additional signal hardware (for the southbound protected left-turn, and the overlapping westbound right -turn) and some signal controller revisions. 2. If a pedestrian bridge or tunnel is not constructed over First Avenue N.E., the intersection would operate at LOS D for all light rail alternatives with the addition of a second westbound right -turn lane. This improvement would serve the most project- related traffic; however, it would also conflict with the heaviest pedestrian traffic volumes. This improvement would also require widening of northbound First Avenue N.E. (to provide two receiving lanes) north of N.E. 100th Street. A three -phase signal, as described above, should operate well based on the forecast traffic volumes. Some additional signal hardware may be required with this improvement (for the southbound protected left -turn, and the overlapping westbound right -turn) and some signal controller revisions. 3. If a pedestrian bridge or tunnel is not constructed over First Avenue N.E., the intersection would operate at LOS F for all Alternatives with the construction of a northbound -to- eastbound right -turn lane. A three -phase signal, as described previously, should operate well based on the forecast traffic volumes. Some additional signal hardware may be required with this improvement (for the southbound protected left -turn, the overlapping westbound right - turn, and the overlapping northbound right -turn) and some signal controller revisions. 1.1.3 Segment B (University District to Westlake Station) Mitigation Features of the Preferred Alternative There are no mitigation features of the preferred alternative for Segment B beyond those previously identified as common to all segments. Additional Mitigation Commitments In 2020, the pedestrian volumes crossing both Broadway Avenue and E. John Street at the E. John Street/Broadway Avenue E. intersection would result in LOS F conditions compared to LOS D for the No -build Alternative. The intersection would operate at LOS C with the addition of eastbound and westbound left-turn lanes on E. John Street. These left -turn lanes will be added by removing on- street parking on E. John Street. This improvement will likely require some additional signal hardware (for the eastbound and westbound left - turns) and some signal controller revisions. 1.1.4 Segment C (Westlake Station to S. McClellan Street) Mitigation Features of the Preferred Alternative Many ofTthe physical sttt aee improvements in the downtown put into place during retrofitcon3 ffitetieft attic downtown transit tunnel .. : will remain in place after construction completion and the start of operations of the Link light rail. After Link light rail operation begins, the "Monitor and Maintain" committee (established prior to the start of construction and includes members from Sound Transit, the City of Seattle, and King County -and rnav he expanded to include participation by other transit acenciesund Community Transit) will review the various transit surface mitigation measures that were put in place during construction to determine which improvements de- »etcontinue to benefit downtown operations. The committee shall then make recommendations to the appropriate local governing body as to which mitigation measures may be removed. It is acknowledged that the committee may not have jurisdiction over the implementation or removal of these traffic mitigation measures. A new traffic signal is proposed at the Lander Street/Beacon Avenue S. intersection near the Beacon Hill Station, if - - - • - . it meets City of Seattle warrants and is required by the C'ity.. 5 DRAFT 05/09/02. _ 1 1 0212''8.01( This new signal will provide a protected pedestrian crossing to the station and allow buses to safely cross as well. Sound Transit is working with King County Metro to mitigate for the possible loss of parking at Ryerson Base if the base is expanded. The two options include: providing temporary parking using WSDOT right -of -way with long -term parking being accommodated in new structured parking at Central Bas, 1`g. 1.1.5 Segment D (S. McClellan Street to Boeing Access Road) Mitigation Features of the Preferred Alternative The recommended light rail signal priority system for the preferred alternative in Segment D is a progression -based system on MLK Jr. Way S. This system relies on the predictability of light rail vehicle arrivals, eliminating the need for light rail vehicles to fully preempt traffic signals. This type of system minimizes or eliminates impacts to eastbound/westbound movements and northbound/southbound left - turn movements compared to a light rail signal preemption system. All existing and new signalized intersections will require timing and phasing revisions. Most of the LOS impacts at intersections from at- grade light rail system are eliminated with the progression -based signal system. However, there are six intersections where improvements have been included in the project design to improve LOS to better than No -build conditions and fully mitigate project impacts. These locations include: • S. Columbian Way - add eastbound left -turn lane • S. Graham Street - add eastbound right -turn lane • S. Myrtle Street - add eastbound and westbound left -turn lanes • S. Othello Street - add eastbound and westbound left -turn lanes and restripe the eastbound curb lane to an exclusive right -turn lane • Renton Avenue S. - add westbound left -turn lane • S. Cloverdale Street - add eastbound right -turn lane All signalized intersections will require timing and phasing revisions. To mitigate impacts of eliminating left -turn access at unsignalized locations, additional signals with northbound and/or southbound left -turn lanes will be included at the following intersections: • S. Dakota Street S. Edmunds Street S. Dawson Street • S. Holly Street Passenger vehicles will be allowed to make U -turns at these locations. Protected pedestrian crosswalks across MLK Jr. Way S. will also be provided. The following intersections will also be signalized; however, left -turn lanes will not be provided on MLK Jr. Way S. at these locations: • S. Hanford Street • a nd ycr Stfeet • S. Brandon Street/35th Avenue S. New -A new traffic signals will also be added at thrcc int r cetion the Rainier Avenue S. /S. Forest Street intersection to improve vehicular and pedestrian access to the McClellan se Hcndc -set stations if the currently proposed bus service integration plan is implemented by King County. If the plan is DRAFT05 /09/02e_'_ '•_ _. _ _ _ _ rF 6 31 fir, • modified, the need for these -this signals will be re- evaluated. A new traffic siunal and truck u -turn is also added at Merton Wav S. to facilitate better truck circulation. For additional crossing opportunities for pedestrians, pedestrian -only signals will be included on MLK Jr. Way S. with the preferred alternative at the following intersections: • S. Andover Street • • - . D • S. Hudson Street S. Raymond Street S. Morgan Street • S. Willow Street S. Holden Street • S. Elmgrove Street • S. Thistle Street • Merton Way S. S. Trenton Street S. Genessee Street (realigned street) These added pedestrian -only signals, in addition to the signalized intersections, will minimize the walking distance required to reach a protected crossing of MLK Jr. Way S. They will also enhance pedestrian safety by providing additional protected pedestrian crossing opportunities of MLK Jr. Way S. Final design of the at -grade sections will include evaluation and implementation where determined to be appropriate of safety measures such as a visual element in the center of the tracks (42 -inch high decorative fence, bollards and chain, or other similar feature) to discourage crossing the tracks except at legal crosswalks. Another measure to be evaluated is an area for pedestrians to stand between or on one or both sides of the rail tracks at legal crossing locations. The preferred alternative also includes a 6 -ft sidewalk with 4.5 -ft planting strip on MLK Jr. Way S. throughout the corridor. At station locations, the sidewalk width will be increased. Additional Mitigation Commitments Business /property owners will be directly compensated by Sound Transit when a portion of their property is acquired by Sound Transit. If a portion of the area purchased was used for parking, Sound Transit will work with the property owner on a case -by -case basis to replace lost parking. 1.1.6 Segment E (Tukwila) Mitigation Features of the Preferred Alternative DRAFT 05/00/0203:27'024)1 11 0201'11'02122'2 '0)0' 7 Z' Wi6g.

For the S. 154th Station, located al the intersection of International Boulevard (SR 99) and S. 154°' Street, crossing opportunities would be limited to the intersections. Additional sidewalks on S. 1Se' Street will be provided on the south side from International Boulevard to 40'x' Avenue S. and along the north side from International Boulevard to the park -and -ride driveway entrance. it is anticipated that sidewalks along International Boulevard adjacent to the station will be provided by the City of SeaTac as part of their improvements aloha international Boulevard (scheduled for 2003) and /or as part of WSDOT widening of the SR 99!SR51 S interchanl*e. With the Initial Segment, a shuttle bus operation would be included at the S. 154th Station to meet each train and provide a direct connection to the airport.

This would mitigate project impacts of an at -grade light rail alignment at the S. 200th Street/28th Avenue S. intersection. Additional Mitigation Commitments Traffic generated from some of the light rail station options would impact LOS at the following intersections: • International Boulevard/ S. 160a1 Street will require restriping of the eastbound leg of the intersection to provide an exclusive left -turn lane and shared through/right -turn lane to improve the v/c ratio to better than No -build conditions. • International Boulevard/S. 170°i Street intersection will require restriping of the westbound approach to provide exclusive left, through, and right turn lanes to improve operations to LOS E. • 32nd Avenue S. /S. 176" Street intersection will require signal timing adjustments to improve traffic operations to LOS D or better. • International Boulevard /S. 200th Street intersection will require the addition of eastbound and westbound right -turn lanes to improve the v/c ratio to better than No- build conditions. At all of these intersections, Sound Transit will be responsible for contributing to the intersection improvements. Link park -and -ride facilities within the City of SeaTac are not intended to replace paid parking for airport passengers, and special enforcement policies will be developed in conjunction with the City of SeaTac _and Port of Seattle to allow SeaTac park- and -ride facilities to remain available for transit users.

Forest Street, south of S. Hinds Street, Airport Way S., and Seventh Avenue S. The site (M1- D) requires the vacation of S. Hanford, S. Horton, and S. Hinds streets between Seventh Avenue S. and Airport Way S. All truck access to businesses located west of the maintenance base will be from Sixth Avenue. Local Access If the maintenance base vacates portions of public streets, creating a dead -end street, turn- arounds will be constructed where required to accommodate large trucks and fire apparatus. 1.2 LAND USE AND ECONOMICS 1.2.1 Common to all Segments Mitigation Features of the Preferred Alternative At each station area Sound Transit shall work with the local jurisdictions, as possible, during the Station Area Planning process to actively involve local businesses, neighborhood organizations, and local residents to plan for development of land uses that effectively serve and support the unique characteristics and needs of each station area. Sound Transit shall to the extent not inconsistent with federal requirements, follow its adopted Guiding Principles for Employment and Contracting. 1.2.2 Segment D. (S. McClellan Street to Boeing Access Road) The Final EIS recognizes that the light rail project may have adverse impacts on certain businesses located within the Rainier Valley and along Segment D. Sound Transit shall, therefore, implement a community reinvestment program funded at a level of 550 Million ( "Community Reinvestment Fund "). This Community Reinvestment Fund shall be used and available to assist the community and the qualified local businesses, neighborhood organizations and community institutions within this area to mitigate and offset adverse economic impacts that they may suffer due to the Link light rail and its construction. The specific operational elements and program requirements of the Community Reinvestment Fund shall be later established by Sound Transit in consultation with the City of Seattle and community business representatives. (This Community Reinvestment Fund, although a project requirement under this ROD, is not considered part of the Link Light Rail Project funding and will not contain either United States Department of Transportation funds or Project local matching funds.) 1.3 ACQUISITIONS, DISPLACEMENTS AND RELOCATIONS 1.3.1 Common to all Segments Mitigation Features of the Preferred Alternative Sound Transit will contact all property owners whose property would be directly affected to answer questions and provide additional information about relocation assistance services, payments, and reimbursement eligibility. Sound Transit's relocation assistance advisory services would include, but not be limited to, measures, facilities, or services that may be necessary or appropriate to determine the relocation needs and preferences of each household, business, and nonprofit organization to be displaced. Sound Transit will provide current information on the availability, purchase prices, and rental costs of comparable replacement dwellings. DRAFT 0909/0201'27'0201'11 'i ∎26 I 11 0212 224 I I t4t,:-? =»44 10 Sound Transit is committed to working closely and proactively with families and businesses to help them plan ahead for relocation, assist them to find new homes or sites, and help solve problems as they may occur. . ; Interpreters will be used to assist those who do not feel comfortable speaking English to ensure understanding of their choices and options. While the ultimate choice of relocation site will be up to the affected family or business, Sound Transit will help with detailed investigation of possible locations. Every attempt will be made to assist those who wish to remain in their neighborhood in finding a new location close to their current site. Sound Transit will compensate affected property owners according to the provisions specified in Sound Transit's adopted Real Estate Property Acquisition and Relocation Policy, Procedures, and Guidelines. These provisions are largely based on the federal Uniform Relocation Assistance and Real Property Acquisition Policies Act of 1970 and Uniform Relocation Act Amendments of 1987 and on the State of Washington's relocation and property acquisition regulations (468 -100 WAC). These benefits vary depending on the level of impact, available options, and other factors. Property owners whose entire or partial property is acquired by Sound Transit will receive just compensation for their land and improvements. Just compensation is an amount paid to a property owner for property acquired for public purposes which is not less than the market value of the property acquired, including damages or benefits to the remaining property. Compensation would include any measurable loss in value to the remaining property as a result of a partial acquisition. Sound Transit will pay for all normal expenses of sale, including escrow fees, title insurance, pre- payment penalties, mortgage release fees, recording fees, and all typical costs incurred incident to conveying title. The sale, however will be exempt from real estate excise tax and no real estate commissions are involved. All funds remaining at the end of sale closing will be released to the seller. Other benefits and compensation may include payment of residential moving expenses and replacement housing payments, nonresidential moving expenses, and reestablishment expenses. Sound Transit's Business Acquisition and Relocation Handbook and Residential Acquisition and Relocation Handbook outlines compensation and acquisition procedures in detail. 1.4 NEIGHBORHOODS Specific mitigation for impacts to neighborhood quality of life, social interaction, safety and security, and social equity are described in detail in other sections of this mitigation plan (transportation, land use, displacements, visual resources, air quality, and noise). 1.5 VISUAL RESOURCES 1.5.1 Segment A (Northgate to University District) Visual impacts for all Segment A alternatives occur along the east side of the I -5 cut section between N.E. 75th and N.E. 95th streets, where a large portion of the mature trees will be removed, and high retaining walls constructed. Replanting roadside vegetation and incorporating retaining wall design measures (such as steps, surface sealing and color, and surface texture) reduces adverse visual impacts to moderate or low levels for all these altematives. Further south, the elevated guideway, Lake City Way fly -over, and associated OCS for Alternative A2.2 would partially obstruct scenic views from Rainbow Point Park. Mature trees within the I -5 right -of- way will be displaced by this alternative; these trees screen foreground views toward the freeway. The current design reflects changes made to reduce visual impacts, including lowering the trackway elevation 11 DRAFT 05/09/0203'27;0201 `11 •u201'1 1-02122 228'01: t '24)4 11 Z- and shifting it further west. Design measures at Rainbow Point Park consist of placement of the poles supporting the overhead catenary system and increasing the height of the viewpoint to reduce the view obstruction. In addition, replanting lost trees with appropriate species reduces adverse visual impacts. 1.5.2 Segment B (University District to Westlake Station) Mitigation Features of the Preferred Alternative For the N.E. 45th Station, an entrance and vent structures on the east side of 15th Avenue N.E. are required. These structures may be located in the wooded edge of the University of Washington campus, potentially requiring the removal of large mature trees at two of the main pedestrian entries to the campus. These impacts will be mitigated by site planning, to minimize the tree removal and replanting new trees. 1.5.3 Segment D (S. McClellan Street to Boeing Access Road) Mitigation Features of the Preferred Alternative The elevated portion of guideway south of S. McClellan Station (options B and C) will cross S. Winthrop Street, part of the Olmsted - planned Cheasty Boulevard system. The project will include landscaping, tree plantings and other streetscape improvements of Cheasty Boulevard along S. Winthrop Street that will enhance its visual quality. The preferred alternative will require the removal of mature street trees and specimen trees along the east frontage of the Rainier Vista housing development, a public landscape with high design quality that constitutes an important community visual resource. The associated visual impacts will be partially mitigated by replacement of the trees with new trees. Streetscape improvements along MLK Jr. Way S. and S. Edmunds and S. Henderson streets will include new trees and new or repaired curb, gutter and sidewalks that will improve the visual quality of the area. To prevent possible land dereliction associated with the creation of remainder parcels difficult to redevelop, the project will replant such parcels with grass or simple landscaping after project construction, and pursue their redevelopment for land uses (including public open space) that are feasible and consistent with neighborhood plans. 1.5.4 Segment E (Tukwila) Mitigation Features of the Preferred Alternative The presence of the elevated trackway running along the hill on the south side of Boeing Access Road and ,z ultant- removal of naturalized vegetation will have a low visual impact on an area which has potential traditional cultural value to local Indian Tribes. Restoration of affected areas with native plant species originally found on the site will reduce this impact. Vegetative screening of the elevated euidewav alone the north side of SR 518 directly adjacent to residential properties west of 42nd Avenue S. and apartments alone_ S. 154'h' Street will be provided where there is adequate space between the light rail euideway and affected residences without interfering with the guideway clear zone..

Utilizing the recommended noise and vibration mitigation measures, light rail and traffic noise impacts and light rail vibration impacts could be attenuated. During final design, project modifications could eliminate some of the currently projected noise and vibration impacts. These modifications will be reviewed prior to finalizing mitigation needs. Mitigation Features of the Preferred Alternative There are several operational measures that can be taken to assure that noise and vibration levels related to light rail operation remain at the levels projected in the analysis. Table 1.7 -1 provides a list of measures that Sound Transit will perform on a regular basis and the benefit that each of the measures will provide. In addition to the measures listed, Sound Transit will continue to research methods of maintaining low project - related noise and vibration levels during normal system operation. Purchasing quiet light rail vehicles is an important step in minimizing noise impacts. Sound Transit will use low - noise, current state -of -the -art vehicles. Approaches to controlling wheel squeal will include one or more of the following: • Use lubrication and friction modification. Apply lubrication on the flange side of the rail and friction modifiers on the running surface of the rail. Optimize rail and wheel profiles. It is often possible to reduce levels of wheel squeal through modifications to the rail and wheel profiles. Minimize contact with restraining rails.

By grinding down or replacing worn rail noise and vibration ZZ levels will remain at the projected levels. Rail grinding or replacement is normally performed every three to five years W it Wheel truing is a method of grinding down flat spots (commonly called ¢¢ D Wheel Truing and Replacement 'wheel flats ") on the light rail's wheels. Flat spots occur primarily because of j O. hard braking. When flat spots occur they can cause increases in both the noise and vibration levels produced by the light rail vehicles. • CO 0' P Y g CO W Vehicle maintenance includes performing scheduled and general maintenance J H. on items such as air conditioning units, bearings, wheel skirts, and other W u_ Vehicle Maintenance mechanical units on the light rail vehicles. Keeping the mechanical system Ill 0 on the light rail vehicles in top condition will also help to maintain the 2 projected levels of noise and vibration. g 11 Operators will be trained to maintain light rail travel speeds at those speeds cn given in the operation plan that was used for the analysis and to avoid "hard- Z W braking" whenever possible. As stated, "hard- braking" can cause wheel flats I— _ and may also damage track. Furthermore, by training operators to identify ?

W W Dp 1.7.1.1 Noise mitigation measures ;0 F- Following is a summary of the types of noise mitigation measures that are recommended. Some = 0 combination of these recommendations will be used to eliminate all identified light rail and traffic noise 1— H` impacts: 0 111 Z; — _ 0 ~' Z Operator Training Additions/ Mitigation Commitments • Install sound walls. Sound walls are considered the most effective noise control measure, and are widely used to control traffic noise. In order to be effective, the walls must block the direct view of the noise source and must be solid with minimal openings. Sound walls will be used to mitigate any light rail noise impacts when the alignment is elevated on a structure. For the at- grade segments, a combination of sound walls and sound insulation (described below) can eliminate all noise impacts. • Provide sound insulation. Insulating affected structures can reduce noise levels inside those structures, thereby eliminating any interior noise impact. This technique does not, however reduce exterior noise levels and is normally used for structures that have little or no outdoor use at the facility. Sound walls were evaluated as the primary type of mitigation for light rail noise impacts in areas where the light rail alignment was elevated. The installation of four -foot sound walls on elevated trackway will eliminate all noise impacts for elevated sections. Six to eight foot sound walls adjacent to at -grade trackway, when not located in a roadway, or near receivers locations were also evaluated as mitigation measures. Sound walls for noise mitigation will occur in a few locations adjacent to receivers and will be constructed at the property owners' discretion. No sound walls are proposed adjacent to in- street trackway. Sound walls will be designed so the noise level at the affected structure will meet the appropriate criteria, either FTA, FHWA, or in some cases both criteria. All decisions to use at -grade sound walls will be coordinated with the affected property owner. For those areas where sound walls are not a feasible and reasonable form of noise mitigation, building insulation will be used to cIitrtiiiutemitiu ate remaining light rail noise impacts in accordance with 14 DRAFT 05/09/0203'27/0201 '1134201 1 1.'0? 12.2g1) lot: 2., 444 ETA and FHWA regulations. The sound insulation will use the Housing and Urban Development (HUD) interior 45 dBA Ldn as the reference value for noise reduction for light rail noise impacts, and the WSDOT 51 dBA peak hour Leq criteria for traffic noise impacts. For those locations where both light rail and traffic noise impacts are identified, the interior levels will be required to meet whichever criteria required the greatest level of noise reduction. Finally, new development and redevelopment along the alignment can incorporate sound Q considerations into site planning and building design. The planned redevelopment of two large public ' = Z housing projects in Segment D - Rainier Vista and Holly Park - provide opportunities to design these W 2 facilities to reduce noise impacts and enhance community character and access. Redevelopment options 6 D: include creating a buffer zone between the road and new residences, incorporating a sound barrier or 0 O' constructing new homes so that interior noise levels meet HUD criteria.

W w' 1~ v 1.7.2 Segment A (Northgate to University District) p Z Alternatives A1.1 and A1.2 each results in eight projected light rail related noise impacts. Under v =, Alternatives A2.1 and A2.2, the traffic noise impacts are identical, but the number of light rail impacts o I; varies from 12 under A2.1 to 22 under A2.2. Z Mitigation for noise is identical under alternatives A1.1 and A1.2, and would consist of 750 feet of sound wall. The retained cut/fill section near N.E. 76th Street will receive 450 feet of sound wall, and an additional 300 feet of sound wall will be placed on the elevated structure near N.E. 95th Street. The two sound walls eliminate all noise impacts under A1.1 and A1.2. Mitigation for alternative A2.1 requires the noise mitigation measures given for alternatives A1.1 and A1.2 (above) and an additional 300 feet of sound wall north of Ravenna Boulevard, near N.E. 67th Street. The sound wall will be on the retained/cut and fill transition section between the underpass and the elevated section of track. The combined sound walls will eliminate all noise impacts under this alternative. Mitigation for alternative A2.2 will also require the noise mitigation measures described above for alternatives A1.1 and A1.2. In addition to the sound walls north of 76th Street, an additional 1,650 feet of sound walls will be attached to the elevated structure. The sound walls will be in two locations along the elevated structure between N.E. 75th and N.E. 65th Streets. Approximately 450 feet of sound wall will be located on the structure between N.E. 75th and the Lake City Way ramps to Interstate 5. The remaining 1,200 feet of sound wall will be located between N.E. 70th and N.E. 66th streets on the east side of the structure. The combined noise walls will eliminate all noise impacts under this alternative. 15 DRAFT 05/ 09/ 0203 /27. 0201 '1 1 02411 '1 1:11212'-8'01 "Y 7r4-4+ All four alternatives have different vibration impacts, however most of the projected vibration impacts will be mitigated using methods described in Section 1.7.1. Currently, using the most cost - effective methods in Section 1.7.1, there are four residual vibration impacts under alternative 1.1, nine residual vibration impacts under alternative A1.2, and one residual vibration impact under alternative A2.1. There are no residual vibration impacts projected under alternative A2.2. Additional testing could potentially eliminate all the residual vibration impacts under A1.1, A1.2 and A2.1. The actual methods of reducing the vibration impacts will be determined during final design. 1.7.3 Segment B (University District to Westlake Station) Additional Mitigation Commitments Because of the unique sensitivity to vibration that some research experiments at the University of Washington (UW) Physics and Astronomy Building may have, an additional analysis was conducted to evaluate impacts of light rail operations and the research activities. Sound Transit shall continue to work with representatives from the Physics Department to determine the appropriate mitigation for potential project effects. 1.7.4 Segment D (S. McClellan Street to Boeing Access Road) Additional Mitigation Commitments The preferred alternative is projected to have 52 moderate light rail noise impacts. The potential noise impacts would be primarily at front -line residences bordering MLK Jr. Way S. There would also be the potential for 231 traffic- related noise impacts. All of the 52 receptors with potential light rail noise impacts have traffic noise impacts because the roadway will be moved to accommodate the light rail. Most of the front -line receivers along MLK Jr. Way S. currently have existing noise levels that meet or exceed the traffic noise abatement criteria. No potential vibration impacts are projected along MLK Jr. Way S. 1.7.4.1 Noise Mitigation Noise mitigation analysis in this segment was performed using a combination of building sound insulation and sound walls. Where proposed, sound walls would be located adjacent to the affected property. Noise impacts in this segment are divided into five separate sections for the purpose of performing the mitigation analysis. The five sections are as follows: • McClellan Street Station to S. Alaska Street; • S. Alaska Street (including Edmunds Station) to S. Graham Street; • S. Graham Street to S. Kenyon Street (includes Holly Park); • S. Kenyon Street to S. Henderson Street; and • S. Henderson Street (including Henderson Station) to Boeing Access Road. McClellan Station to S. Alaska Street (including Edmunds Station): There is one light rail and 40 traffic noise impacts projected in this section of Segment D. Twenty will use building sound insulation, although four of the impacts may be mitigated with sound walls or building insulation. The remaining 16 impacts are in the Rainier Vista residential housing complex which is planned for redevelopment. Mitigation of the remaining 16 impacts at Rainier Vista will be performed during the redevelopment by 2006. If the redevelopment is not completed prior to implementation of the light rail project, the noise - impacted units would be mitigated using building sound insulation. S. Alaska Street to S. Graham Street (including Graham Station): This section of Segment D has 90 projected traffic noise impacts, 29 of which also have noise impacts related to light rail operations. Fifteen of the impacts will be mitigated using sound walls or building insulation. All other impacts will be DRAFT 05/09/0203'27;0201 '1 1 112111 1 1 021322:1) li+N-2= 1+ 16 mitigated using some form of building sound insulation. The walls will have a combined length of just over 850 ft and have a height of approximately 6 ft: S. Graham Street to S. Kenyon Street (includes all of Holly Park): There are 42 projected traffic noise impacts, with 18 of these impacts also having noise impacts due to light rail operations. All except six of the impacts will be elintittntcd ivtitigated using some form of building sound insulation. The remaining six impacts are located in Holly Park and will be mitigated as part of the planned redevelopment of this area by 2003. If the redevelopment does not occur prior to light rail implementation, the six units will be mitigated using building sound insulation. S. Kennon Street to S. Henderson Street: This section is projected to have 50 traffic noise impacts, with seven of these impacts also having noise impacts due to light rail operations. Building sound insulation or three sound walls totaling approximately 1,220 ft will be used to mitigate both the traffic noise and light rail noise impacts at 13 of these receivers. All other impacts will have some form of building sound insulation applied as mitigation. S. Henderson Street (including Henderson Station) to Boeing Access Road: There are 25 traffic noise and 13 light rail noise impacts projected in this section of Segment D. All noise impacts in this section of Segment D can be mitigated. Thirteen of the impacts that both have light rail and traffic noise impacts will be mitigated with a sound wall or building insulation. All other impacts will be mitigated using building sound insulation. 1.7.5 Segment E (Tukwila) Additional Mitigation Commitments Filly-aitt-Thirty nine potential light rail - related noise impacts were projected in this segment and none are considered severe under FTA tuidelines., with two considcrc'i severe under FTA guidelines.

The actual method will be determined during final design. 1.8 ECOSYSTEMS Increased impervious surfaces will result in increased stonnwater runoff and decreases in water quality. This impact can be mitigated with detention and treatment of stonmwater nmoff from new impervious surfaces, as discussed in the Water Resources of the Final EIS. 1.8.1 Segment A (Northgate to University District) Long -term impacts on ecosystems are expected to be minor for all four alternatives for Segment A. The alternative locations for the Northgate Station (Options A, B and C) have slightly different impacts on South Fork Thornton Creek and its associated wetland (AR -1). Station Option A shades approximately 0.13 acre of wetland habitat associated with Thornton Creek and removes several adjacent alder trees. Station Options B and C shades a negligible amount of this wetland area. No mitigation is necessary for the shading. Mitigation for the tree removal will require replanting with riparian shrubs. Elevated tracks from the Roosevelt Station under Alternatives A2.1 and A2.2 remove several mature trees on Ravenna Boulevard. No long -term impacts on threatened or endangered wildlife or fish species result from these alternatives, as long as additional stormwater nmoff generated from new impervious surfaces is detained and treated as discussed in the Water Resources section of the Final EIS. 1.8.2 Segment B (University District to Westlake Station) Additional Mitigation Commitments For the N.E. 45`h Station, Option B, several mature trees will be removed on the U.W. Campus. To minimize this impact, trees to be saved will be clearly marked and disturbed sites will be landscaped with similar trees and shrubs. If trees do not survive construction, new trees will be planted. 1.8.3 Segment C (Westlake Station to S. McClellan Street) Additional Mitigation Commitments The project will result in the loss of approximately 10,150 square feet of deciduous forest within city of Seattle designated greenbelts. Tree removal within a city greenbelt will require replacement planting. Portions of the greenbelts disturbed by construction will be required to be replanted at a ratio of 100 trees per acre and 1,600 shrubs per acre. A three -year maintenance plan is also required to provide survival of the plantings. 18 DRAFT 05/09/0201'27 0201'1 0201 ' 1 1 112 12' 28'0 (OF 2? 04 zf tu 6 J U. U O: U o' cow. co IL.

McClellan Street to Boeing Access Road) Additional Mitigation Commitments The project will fill approximately 5,000 square feet of wetland (AR -3) and remove approximately 1,500 square feet of wetland buffer. The compensation/restoration ratio for these wetland impacts is 2:1, therefore approximately 10,000 square feet of wetland mitigation is required. Also, the compensation/restoration ratio for wetland buffer impacts is 1:1, therefore 1,500 square feet of buffer mitigation is required. Mitigation could be accomplished either on or offsite. Wetland AR -3 is located on Seattle City Light powerline right -of -way and private property. On -site opportunities to conduct wetland creation or restoration at this site may be limited by the requirements of Seattle City Light. The wetland currently consists primarily of plowed wetland grasses. With permission from Seattle City Light, this wetland could be enhanced by removing invasive shrubs and grasses and replanting the site with native wetland species. Potential for wetland restoration exists on privately owned land adjacent to wetland AR -3. Fill material wil'kould be removed to connect wetland AR -3 with another wetland located outside of the project limits. Dense blackberry thickets NN illcou1d be removed and replaced with native wetland tree species. Blackberries in the buffer area wtllcould also be removed and planted with native upland species to meet the buffer mitigation requirements. Offsite mitigation will also be pursued in the event that on -site opportunities are not preferred. The final mitigation will he developed in conjunction with the permitting agencies. Several mature trees will be removed at the edges of deciduous forest patches. To minimize this impact, saved trees will be clearly marked and disturbed sites will be landscaped with native trees and shrubs. 1.8.5 Segment E (Tukwila) Additional Mitigation Commitments 2.

Remove garbate (e.e. building structure, appliances. tires. bed frame) throughout the wetland and replace exotic invasive species with native wetland species to enhance wetland functions. Off -site mitigation may be necessary to achieve the 3.3 -acre required nlitieation ratios. Off -site mitigation could occur in conjunction with fisheries habitat restoration. Off -site, mitigation could he accomplished at a different location within the Duwanlish River drainage basin. Locations will he selected in coordination with permitting agencies and /or the Watershed Restoration Group.

Mitigation measures for the Duwamish River Bridge construction gill include, hut are not limited to the following: (1) Limiting in water construction to in-water work periods: (2) Spill control such as silt curtains and oil booms: (3) Sediment and erosion control, 13MPs: (4) Maintain specific construction access points: (5) Limit clearing: and (6) Rcvcjetate at least 500 ft 01-nearby banks of the Duwamish River with new trees and riparian shrubbery (assuminu displacement of two 50 -1t -wide swaths of existing hank vegetation and a .5:1 replacement ratio). The success of riparian vegetation will he monitored by Sound Transit for a period of no less than 5 years atier installation. Specific monitoring locations will he identified in the future in collaboration with the permitting! agencies. \-litigation for placement of Southgate Creek into a culvert will be achieved by stream channel habitat improvements downstream of this area accordinu to applicable regulations. Relocation the Southgate ('reek stream channel outsicic the alignment corridor would have less ol'an impact than placing it in a culvert. engineering considerations require that culverting be retained as an option. Relocation of the drainaue ditch which conveys the northern unnamed tributary of Gilliam Creek (AR 50) will provide opportuniry to mitigate fisheries impact through the improvement of stream quality. These improvements may include introducing sinuosity to this tributary. increasing complexity of habitat, and reduction in water temperature through associated riparian plantings. Additional off -site mitigation could be achieved. as needed, in the headwaters to Gilliam Creek located 011 the south side of SR 518. Mitigation for fisheries impacts will be provided according to applicable regulations. Tree removal at Wetlands AR -48, AR --19, and AR -50 could he mitigated through on -site wetland enhancement. While trees could not be replanted at these locations. clearing could be limited and planting plans could be prepared to revegetate areas disturbed by construction and also remove exotic species and replace them with native shrubs and herb species. This type of mitigation may be difficult to accomplish at AR -49 and AR -50 due to the confined nature of' the wetlands at these locations. Wetland AR-48 is located in a less confined area. if property can be purchased or an easement can be obtained at AR -48, mitigation for impacts on this wetland and AR -49. which is also in the Southgate Creek drainage basin, could be accomplished at this site. Wetland mitigation will be provided according to applicable regulations. 1.8.6 Segment F (SeaTac) The South SeaTac Station (S. 200th Street) park- and -ride (options E and F) results in the loss of up to 4.0 acres of scattered forest and shrub cover on vacant lots. Vegetation removal within vacant lots does not require mitigation because of its low value as habitat or other functions. The park- and -ride lot will include landscaping. 1.9 WATER RESOURCES 1.9.1 Common to all Segments Stormwater control techniques can mitigate the effects of long- and short-term hydrologic changes. State and local regulations establish standards for detention, retention, and other methods of stormwater control. In general, post - development runoff rates are required to match existing discharge rates which can range from the 2 -year up to the 100 -yr design storm event, dependent upon the point of discharge. Mitigation is usually accomplished by reducing or attenuating peak runoff rates from a developed site, by either detention (store and release to surface waters) or retention (store and infiltrate or evapotranspirate runoff). 21 DRAFT 05/09/0203/27/0201 • 11 02111 '11 '0212 '28 '010,1 23 Al l 1 Water quality impacts are generally regulated by federal and state guidelines, usually through standards for receiving water quality and limitations on the generation and release of pollutants. Washington State's Department of Ecology (Ecology) has established regulations to protect water quality from point and non -point source pollution. A National Pollution Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit will be obtained for construction and operation of this project. If a general permit is obtained, specific discharge treatments, monitoring, and reporting requirements applicable to individual project sites will be included for park- and -ride and maintenance facilities and stations. Source controls will be used on developed sites to prevent pollutants from entering stormwater. Source control Best Management Practices (BMPs) are intended to mitigate pollutants generated through normal operation and use of buildings, roadways, park- and -rides, and other urban facilities. Specific source control strategies have been developed for individual contaminants of concern and/or polluting activities. They include the following: • Preserve natural vegetation • Establish buffer zones • Contain wash water or discharge to sewer system • Maintain permanent seeding or planting on exposed soil • Maintain spill and fume control at paint facilities • Maintain oil /water separators Non -point source pollutants are removed from stommater when suspended sediments are deposited or trapped when plants uptake dissolved materials in stomiwater. Non -point source pollutants are removed in conjunction with suspended solids, which can be accomplished by using wet ponds, constructed wetlands, or wet vaults. Nutrient pollutants (including phosphorus, nitrogen, and organics) and metals can also be removed through filtration and biological uptake facilities, such as constructed wetlands and biofiltration swales. Additional mitigation or treatment will be used on a site -by -site basis to remove pollutants if appropriate. In general, estimates of pollutant loading and treatment system removal efficiencies indicate that mitigation could reduce the concentrations of pollutants (total suspended solids, chemical oxygen demand, metals, and nutrients) expected in runoff, relative to existing levels, on a long -term basis. Their effectiveness at specific sites will be determined using water quality models. Additional stormwater detention and treatment is not necessary in Segments A, B, and C because new impervious surfaces in these areas are served by storm drains with adequate capacity. 1.9.2 Segment A (Northgate to University District) The City of Seattle and WSDOT require that new development must mitigate stormwater impacts to meet specific discharge rates. Under these regulations, stated in the City of Seattle Stomiwater, Grading, and Drainage Code, on -site stormwater detention will be required for the Northgate Station Option A and the Roosevelt Station associated with Alternatives A2.1 and A2.2. No mitigation is expected to be required for the Northgate Station Option B. Stonnwater detention will be provided where runoff from track segments (that create new impervious surface) discharges. These facilities will be constructed to meet City of Seattle regulations.

The capacity required to meet City of Seattle regulations at this location is approximately 3,300, and will require approximately 3,600 ft2 of treatment. Q Z w JO 000. tow w =; CO w 0, . J LL.

Runoff from this area generally drains to the City of Seattle's storm drainage system, except for areas between S. Hanford Street and S. Columbian Way, which drains to a combined sewer and between S. Trenton Street and Barton Avenue S, where it then drains to a CSO. A new storm water collection system will be constructed on MLK Jr. Way S. This collection system will convey storm runoff from the project area to the existing storm drain system (except at S. Henderson Street). Stormwater runoff along MLK Jr. Way S. will be separated from the existing CSO for approximately 4,000 ft between Hanford Street and Columbian Way, which will reduce CSO events and reduce existing impacts to receiving waters. The City of Seattle has indicated that the existing storm drainage conveyance system at the south end of MLK Jr. Way has inadequate capacity. The City hired a consultant to complete an analysis of the basin and preliminary findings are expected to be issued in the first quarter of the year 2000. The light rail project will require rebuilding MLK Jr. Way S. to include installation of a new storm drainage collection system. This system will be sized to accommodate the design flows established in the hydraulic study. Construction of the light rail along MLK Jr. Way S. south of Beacon Avenue will result in a negligible increase in impervious surface area because most of the area adjacent to the existing roadway is either asphalt parking /shoulder or compacted gravel. At the time that the City hydraulic report is completed, Sound Transit will establish the level of its participation in the recommended program of storm drainage improvements, including detention and water quality facilities in the basin. 1.9.4 Segment E (Tukwila) Mitigation Features of the Preferred Alternative rear. DRAFT 05/09'02 23 Stormwater detention facilities would be constructed to detain runoff from non - pollutant eeneratine segments of track and detention and treaument facilities would be provided at the park- and -ride facilities to mitigate impacts oldie increased polluting impervious surface. aceordine to the King, County Surface Water Design Manual level 2 requirements. Detention facilities would be located within existine freeway right -of -way or property already required fin. acquisition. The detention facilities will he designed according to the King County Stormwater Manual (1998) King County Level 2 standards and will be used for the preliminary volume estimates at the Boeintz Access Road facility because it will discharge to a wetland. Accordine to Tukwila's Sensitive Areas Ordinance. stormwater discharge to this wetland will be allowed after a site review. The 13ocine Access Road park -and -ride will add approximately 155.001:1 square feet of impervious surface area. Stormwater detention will he provided for the additional impervious area created by the project. Water quality treatment such as oil /water separators and /or bioswales will also be provided at the Boeing Access Road park - and -ride facilities to remove conventional pollutants associated with automobile use. Bioswales were designed for each of these sites based on preliminary drawings. Bioswale calculations will be made using the method recommended in the Kine County Surface Water Design Manual (1998). Bioswales are assumed for water quality treatment because they will require the most surface area, and represent a worst -case scenario for feasibility evaluation. Compared to existing conditions the park - and -ride facility at S. 150 Street will decrease total impervious surface area and runoff by adding landscaping to an area that currently has none. This site will also decrease total pollutant venerating impervious surface. A bioswale or other treatment Best Management Practices (BMPs) will he constructed at this site to treat runoff in accordance with the King County Stormwater Design Manual. None of the impervious surface eeneratcd by segments of track would be subject to vehicular use therefore, runoff from these areas would not be a measurable source of pollutants. Detention will be provided for those sections of track that create new impervious surface area. The specific locations of detention facilities will be determined durine final design but will be located in freeway right-of-way property already acquired for the project. 1.9.5 Segment F (SeaTac) Mitigation Features of the Preferred Alternative Compared to existing conditions the park- and -ride facility at S. 154th Street will decrease total impervious surface area and runoff by adding landscaping to an area that currently has none. However, this site will increase total pollutant generating impervious surface and a bioswale (approximately 6,000 ft2) or other treatment Best Management Practices (BMPs) will be constructed at this site to treat runoff in accordance with the King County Stormwater Design Manual. Treatment and detention will also be required at the S. 200th Street park- and -ride facility (Options E and F). The detention facility at this site will provide approximately 14,000 cubic feet of volume to meet King County Level 2 standards. The bioswale at this site will be approximately 9,600 square feet. Final stortnwater mitigation will be determined during final design; bioswales were modeled because they will require the most surface area, and represent a worst -case scenario. 24 DRAFT 05!09/0203.'27 10201 11 4).-1(1) •1 1 '0212'28'0I(,K 2 ?-44- Z 1 re 2 JU UO; co 0 L_13 I— g?. •. _ Z I' Z 0: 2p 0 I- = uj I.0 ••Z; U =.

On -site water quality mitigation will include: bioswales or other treatment for runoff from parking lots, treating and recycling wash water, using filters and oiUwater separators prior to discharge, requiring spill control in paint shops, and recycling grease. 1.10 ENERGY 1.10.1 Common to all Segments Mitigation Features of the Preferred Alternative Sound Transit will incorporate relevant City, County, and Washington State energy code requirements into all design aspects of the system, stations, maintenance facility, and parking areas. Sound Transit will also work with Seattle City Light and Puget Sound Energy to design facilities to conserve electricity. 1.11 GEOLOGY AND SOILS 1.11.1 Common to all Segments Mitigation Features of the Preferred Alternative Using the appropriate seismic parameters in the design of the system will reduce the impact of earthquake shaking on the proposed light rail system. Damage due to soil liquefaction will be reduced or eliminated by a number of methods. For at -grade alignments, the ground may be improved by densifying or replacing potentially liquefiable materials that may be present beneath the alignments. The liquefaction prone soils may be designed for by placing the light rail on a raft of non - liquefiable soils, by founding the rails on piles, and/or by planning a maintenance schedule to re -level or repair system components if settlement occurs. Elevated and tunnel alignments generally mitigate liquefaction potential by the design of the structure. The appropriate level of mitigation will depend upon the severity of the liquefaction hazard and the specific light rail components in those areas. For existing steep slopes along the corridor, mitigation will be accomplished through the application of proper engineering and design. 1.12 HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 1.12.1 Common to all Segments Mitigation Features of the Preferred Alternative. The project will implement standard operating procedures at the maintenance facility to address management of hazardous materials as part of system operation. These procedures involve development of a programmatic health and safety plan, worker training, materials use planning and tracking, documentation, and a waste management program, in compliance with local, state and Federal regulations • and permitting requirements.

The mitigation measure proposed for implementation involves a specific configuration of the light rail catenary -power feed system in the vicinity of the University of Washington Physics and Astronomy Building. The catenary system feeds electric power from DC power cables running parallel to and approximately at the level of the northbound and southbound tracks. Both the northbound and southbound catenary systems will be divided into looped segments approximately 72 ft in length. Each looped segment consists of two tap wires extending from the DC power cables to the ends of the catenary cable segment. The catenary cable will have an electrical resistance approximately 3 to 5 times that of the tap wires. Contact of a train car's pantograph with a segment's catenary cable will create two partial loops, with current flowing clockwise in one partial loop and counterclockwise in the other. The current flow in each partial loop will create a magnetic field, resulting in two fields of opposing directions. As the pantograph moves along the segment with the train's forward motion, one partial loop becomes smaller as the other becomes proportionately larger. The varying length of the partial loops, together with the higher electrical resistance of the catenary cable compared to the tap wires, results in the two opposing magnetic fields partially canceling each other, regardless of where along the segment the pantograph contacts the catenary cable. The specific segment of track over which this mitigation is needed will be refined by Sound Transit during future design phases in collaboration with the University of Washington Physics Department. 1.14 PUBLIC SERVICES 1.14.1 Common to all Segments Mitigation Features of the Preferred Alternative Sound Transit will incorporate the following mitigation measures to help ensure system safety and minimize the potential impacts of light rail operation on public services: • Develop a system safety and security program that defines activities and management controls, plans, and monitoring processes to prevent patrons, personnel, and property from being exposed to hazards or unsafe conditions during light rail operation. The program will be developed in close coordination with local fire, police, and other public service agencies as part of Sound Transit's emergency management plan. The program will also: - Incorporate safety considerations, compatible with other system requirements into light rail facilities, equipment, plans, and procedures to minimize the potential for accidents during operation. — Identify and eliminate or minimize hazards associated with light rail and eliminate or minimize to ensure acceptable safety levels. - Implement a safety certification program that requires all elements of a safe transit system are present before revenue service begins. - Maintain a proactive safety philosophy that emphasizes preventive measures over corrective measures to eliminate unsafe conditions.

CCTV will be located to provide adequate coverage of all entry points; fare machines, money changers, and bank machines; paths from entry to platform, including corridors, stairs, escalators, and entry points to elevators; in elevators of deep tunnel stations; platform areas; emergency telephone locations; and any vending and other self - service areas. - Install a public address system to provide information to transit passengers. This system will be used in conjunction with CCTVs to address emergencies or antisocial behavior and will provide adequate coverage of all public areas in stations. - Install passenger assistance telephones that provide direct contact with security or cmcrccncv response personnel , tr ': iIiti These phones will likely be located in fare collection and platform areas, near a CCTV camera, and will be prominently identified. - Provide security personnel to rove between stations. These personnel will likely be contracted with local law enforcement or private agencies, but could also be provided directly by Sound Transit. More precise needs for manned surveillance will be determined as the safety and security program advances. • Implement system security criteria at and around station sites that enhance patron security through: ensuring maximum visibility of the entrances and the facility from adjacent areas; planting vegetation that does not hinder fields of vision; providing adequate lighting and site accessibility; and provide clear lines of sight of parking lots, adequate illumination, and ease of access for surveillance. • Provide radio communication capabilities for emergency train operations and police and fire emergencies; provide two -way communication capability from within elevator cabs between the patron and the light rail operations. • Install and maintain an intrusion and alarm system to protect against unauthorized entry into security sensitive areas of the system such as fare vending machines, traction power substations, and money counting and storage rooms; lock or otherwise prevent access to tunnel and elevated sections when the light rail system is closed wherever possible. • Develop an emergency management plan in close coordination with Seattle, Tukwila, SeaTac, King County, and Port of Seattle police and fire departments, transportation divisions, and others through Sound Transit's Fire -Life Safety Committee during preliminary and final design, and 27 DRAFT 05/09/02 construction, and operation of the proposed facilities. This plan will provide that reliable emergency access is maintained, alternate plans or routes are developed to avoid delays in response times, and general emergency services are not compromised. • Work with local police departments to implement crime prevention through environmental design (CPTED) principles when feasible. This will include design elements such as installing appropriate lighting around the station areas, tunnels, parking facilities, and other system Z facilities, and incorporating other design features to help deter crime. , 'i Z • Work with local fire and police departments to address training necessary to teach personnel tu re 2 about the light rail system facilities (tunnels, elevated sections, at -grade crossings) and 6 v: operations.

These mitigation measures apply to all segments in the light rail corridor and all maintenance base options. Segment - specific construction mitigation pleasures have been identified for Segments B and C only, as described in the following sections. 2.1.2 Segment A (Northgate to University District) All alternatives in Segment A could cause partial road closures and possible short-term full closures during the placement of the elevated stricture over First Avenue N.E. for the Northgate Station Option B; significant truck traffic would be expected. At the 80`h/85`h street ramps on I -5, full road closures may be DRAFT 05/09/0203!27.'020111 '0201:1 1 :0212.21; '01 i4:=- ■-144- • 30 •Z necessary during trackway construction; ramp modifications will be required, and temporary detour routes will need to be constructed. Similarly, at Lake City Way N.E. /I- 5/N.E. 75t1i Street, all alternatives will cause partial road closures during the construction of elevated or cut- and -cover sections, and a temporary bypass route on I -5 ramps will need to be constructed. Heavy truck traffic will be expected during construction spoils removal, materials delivery, and/or placement of elevated trackway between staging areas and I -5. Alternatives A2.1 and A2.2 will require partial road closures on Eighth Avenue N.E. for construction of elevated trackway sections. Full closures will likely be required during the construction of the north tunnel portal. Traffic will need to be rerouted during peak construction periods. The longer elevated trackway needs in Alternative A2.2 require more construction truck traffic. At N.E. Ravenna Boulevard, alternatives A2.1 and A2.2 involve partial to full road closures during the constniction and placement of the elevated trackway. The N.E. Ravenna Boulevard off - ramps from I -5 will likely be closed and reconstructed, and temporary ramps may be needed to avoid a significant impact during construction. With Alternative A2.2, freight trucks may experience increased delay from temporary lane closures during construction of the elevated crossing of SR 522. Station construction near Northgate Way could also result in freight -truck delays for all Segment A alternatives. 2.1.3 Segment B (University District to Westlake Station) To minimize the impact of high truck volumes in the Pacific Station area, tunnel spoils will be barged from Portage Bay for removal and disposal during the construction period if permits can be obtained. 2.1.4 Segment C (Westlake Station to S. McClellan Street) Closure of the Downtown Seattle Transit Tunnel (DSTT) will be required for a period of up to 26 months, during which time downtown streets will need to accommodate the buses that currently operate in the DSTT. Surface street modifications necessary to maintain acceptable operating levels will be completed before closing the DSTT. Construction of the pre - closure surface street improvements may require up to 12 months. To mitigate impacts of the DSTT closure and improvements on both transit riders and automobile users Sound Transit shall form a committee with the City of Seattle, King County, Comm unit Trun i' and may be expanded to include participation by other transit agencies. to provide adequate facilities and measures to assure that public transit can effectively serve the central business district and that other users' needs are accommodated. The committee will agree on performance and travel time standards for buses operating on surface streets. The committee will also establish a monitoring program and make recommendations on changes to downtown street operations necessary to meet and maintain those performance standards during project construction. The committee will also consult with and seek the input of downtown Seattle, Seattle neighborhood and suburban stakeholders. . ' - rlocal agre nLtlt ftnlon4st the 'Improvements 10 surfae slices %vill that have been identified include: Operational Improvements on North /South Streets • Bus routes that currently use the bus tunnel will be reassigned to 2 "d, 3rd and 4°' Avenues to group routes serving similar rider markets grouped together to provide higher service frequency, add rider convenience and simplify bus routes through downtown. • Bus stops on 2 "d, 3Td and 4th Avenues will be modified, expanded and/or relocated to optimize bus flow, traffic impacts and to balance passenger demand at stops. DRAFT 0i/09'0201'27:02111'11 0201'11 '0111'2E'0I1+: 21 14+ 31 1c, • To help facilitate the movement of pedestrians, autos and buses at key intersections uniformed police officers will be used to direct traffic during the peak periods. • During the construction period buses will be concentrated on 3rd Avenue with the following operational conditions: • Traffic circulation on 3rd Avenue will be allowed at all times but in the peak periods, autos will only be permitted to make right turns onto and off 3rd Avenue to provide opportunities for passenger pick -up, deliveries and circulation for vehicles entering and exiting side - street parking garages. • Through traffic on 3rd Avenue between Stewart Street and Yesler Way will be restricted to public transit buses charter buses, and emergency vehicles on weekdays from 6 -9 a.m. and 3- 6 p.m. Additional analysis will be performed to determine if the hours of restricted operation can be reduced. • Some bus stops will be modified, closed or new ones added. Buses will operate in a skip stop pattern. • When the modifications are first put in place, autos on 3rd Avenue will be allowed to make left turns during the midday. However, if the monitoring program finds that this movement results in impacts to transit travel time and reliability, midday left -turn restrictions will be instituted. Connections to I -5 in North Downtown Providing transit priority in the north downtown area will occur with the following improvements: • Split the buses bound for I -5 in the afternoon between Pike Street, Olive Way and Virginia Street. • Route Community Transit and Sound Transit buses on Pike Street. (Currently only trolley service operates on Pike Street.) Add a second bus stop and shelter on the south side of Pike Street east of Sixth Avenue. • Add a transit -only contra -flow lane on Ninth Avenue between Olive Way and Stewart Street and reconstruct the intersection of Ninth Avenue and Olive Way to allow buses to enter and exit Convention Place Station (access for the I -5 reversible lanes). • Add a peak period transit only lane on Olive Way between Fourth Avenue and Boren Avenue (eliminate westbound auto lane between Boren Avenue and Howell Street). Using the transit lane on Olive Way, operate buses in a skip -stop pattern. • Connections in South Downtown To acconvnodate the volume of buses entering downtown from the south and I -90 and to reduce impacts of bus travel times, bus volumes will be split between Fourth Avenue S. and Fifth Avenue S. In addition, the following changes are recommended: • Prefontaine Place will be a transit only street at all tines. • 3rd Avenue south of Yesler Street will be restricted to public transit buses, charter buses and emergency vehicles on weekdays from approximately 6 -9 a.m. and 3 -6 p.m. • Establish a contraflow lane on 5d' Avenue South between Jackson Street and Washington Street. Allow auto use of the 5th Avenue South contraflow lane between Jackson Street and Washington Street, but require autos to turn right at either Main Street or Washington Street. Monitor transit travel time and reliability to determine if the transit only contra flow lane should be extended north from Washington Street to Terrace Street, and to determine if auto use of the contraflow lane is affecting bus travel time.

Sound Transit will work with the Downtown Seattle Association and other interested parties to develop a campaign to promote the downtown area during the construction period. Construction activities in Segment C will impact the Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railroad activity. Coordination with the railroad will be necessary to minimize impacts during construction. 2.2 LAND USE AND ECONOMICS 2.2.1 Common To All Segments Mitigation measures that reduce impacts to local businesses during project construction include: • Establish effective communication with residents and businesses; develop and implement a public relations plan that will provide that local residents and businesses are fully informed about potentially significant disruptions;; such as temporary street closures; out of the ordinary constniction noise, vibration, littht, or glare:; changes in transit service;: and parking availability. Sound Transit will work with community and neighborhood groups prior to and through the construction process to identify types of impacts that would occur and to work on ways to reduce those impacts. • Provide a community ombudsman. • Minimize construction- related noise, vibration, dust and dirt impacts through appropriate construction methods to minimize impacts during periods of increased sensitivity. Maintain access to businesses during construction activities. • Clearly identify and make accessible paths to and from major transportation facilities, such as designated pedestrian routes, bicycle lanes, bus routes and stops, designated truck routes, and tunnel entrances. • Work with affected business owners, chambers of commerce, merchants associations and others to develop a business marketing program to minimize business losses during construction. The program could include a shuttle bus and/or increased transit service to affected areas, additional signage, advertising and promotion, and incentives to attract and retain customers. • Request the assistance of local ethnic community organizations to help tailor business marketing programs to the specific needs of ethnic business owners whose customers are mainly from a single ethnic group. • Provide business cleaning services on a case -by -case basis. • Work with Community Capital Development and/or similar organizations to assist affected businesses in gaining access to technical assistance and small business loans or grants. • Develop a 24 -hour monitoring center that provides telephone access for the public to get construction inforniation and to make complaint and incident reports. • Develop a mitigation commitment tracking system that would provide a computerized record of all mitigation commitments and a means to track progress toward meeting those commitments. 2.2.2 Segment D (S.

Mitigation for these impacts is described in other sections of this attachment. 2.5 VISUAL RESOURCES 2.5.1 Common To All Segments Temporary lighting will be necessary for nighttime construction of certain project elements or at tunnel portals and along surface or elevated alternatives in existing road or highway rights -of -way (to minimize disruption of daytime traffic). This temporary lighting could impact residential areas by exposing residents to uncomfortable glare from unshielded light sources, or by increasing ambient nighttime light levels. Temporary lighting impacts will be reduced by shielding light sources to block direct views from residential areas, and by aiming and shielding to reduce spillover lighting in such areas. The community ombudsman referenced in Section 2.2.1 shall work with the affected community to seek to minimize temporary lighting impacts. 2.6 AIR QUALITY 2.6.1 Common To All Segments Constniction activities primarily generate particulate matter (PM10_and PM2.5), as well as small amounts of CO and NOx from construction machinery exhaust and vehicular traffic delayed in construction zones. Specific sources of particulate would be dust from earth moving- excavation activities (termed fugitive dust) and diesel smoke and odors created during paving of station areas, parking lots, and roads. The Puget Sound Clean Air Agency enforces air quality regulations in King County, including those for controlling fugitive dust (Regulation 1, Section 9.15). Contractors engaged in construction activities must comply with this regulation, which requires the use of best available control technology to control fugitive dust emissions. Controls used to meet this standard require the following actions: • . Use water spray as necessary to prevent visible dust emissions- particularly during demolition of brick or concrete buildings by mechanical or explosive methods. • Minimize dust emissions during transport of fill material or soil by wetting down or by ensuring adequate freeboard on tnicks. • Promptly clean up spills of transported material on public roads by frequent use of a street sweeper machine. • Cover Loads of hot asphalt to minimize odors. • Schedule work tasks to minimize disruption of the existing vehicle traffic on streets. • Keep all construction machinery engines in good mechanical condition to minimize exhaust emissions. 34 !WAFT 05/09/0203'27/0201 ' 11 `0201:1 1.0212'2R'0l01:- 4•-44 11 Z Z re ai J U'.

U- H Z 2.7 NOISE AND VIBRATION 2.7.1 Common To All Segments Noise Mitigation Several methods of noise mitigation are available for the contractor to use that will help keep noise level increases and impacts to a minimum. Whenever feasible, noise barriers will be built between the construction site and nearby noise sensitive receiver locations. Operation of construction equipment during nighttime hours (10:00 P.M. to 7:00 A.M.) or on Sundays or legal holidays, will be restricted to the limits of the construction sites that have noise barrier walls. All engine - powered equipment will be required to have mufflers installed according to the manufacturer's specifications and all equipment will be required to comply with pertinent equipment noise standards of the U.S. EPA. During nighttime work, either smart backup alarms or spotters will be used to reduce noise from equipment operating in reverse gears. Sound Transit will limit the use of impact or impulse tools and activities that produce the highest noise levels to daytime hours of 8:00 A.M. to 5:00 P.M., or as specified in noise regulations and variances. As stated, maximum noise levels associated with pile driving could reach 105 dBA at distances of 50 ft. Mitigation of the noise associated with pile driving could include auguring piles, rather than driving piles, or limiting the time during which the activity can take place. Pile driving will be restricted to daytime hours of 8:00 A.M. to 5:00 P.M. Truck haul routes will be selected to have the least adverse effect on noise sensitive receivers (e.g. residential) and will be subject to approval of the local jurisdiction. Sound Transit will obtain noise variances to noise control regulations from the local government jurisdictions and the State of Washington where necessary to address conditions specific to the project. Vibration Mitigation The construction contract specifications will contain a section specific to vibration, and include, at a minimum, vibration monitoring of all activities that produce vibration levels near the U.S. DOT maximum recommended vibration level whenever there are structures located near the construction activity. This includes pile driving, vibratory sheet installation, soil compacting, and other construction activities that have the potential to cause high levels of vibration. Vibration mitigation includes limiting the hours when the vibration producing equipment can be used near sensitive receivers. Mitigation for the tunnel- boring machine may not be necessary due to the geologic conditions and type of machine expected to be used for the project. Elimination of vibration related to pile driving is not feasible, however, the use of an augur to install piles instead of a pile driver will greatly reduce the noise and vibration levels. By restricting and monitoring vibration- producing activities, vibration impacts from construction will be kept to a minimum. During high vibration- producing activities such as pile driving and shoring installation, there is a potential for settlement and small movements of nearby structures. Design and installation of suitable shoring systems and other mitigation will reduce the potential of settlement related damage. Other mitigation includes underpinning adjacent structures, installing recharge wells to reduce de- watering induced settlement, and/or re- leveling and repairing impacted areas following construction. In addition, pre - construction condition surveys and during - construction monitoring programs for neighboring structures will be conducted and repairs made as necessary. The community ombudsman referenced in Section 2.2.1 shall work with the affected community to seek to minimize the impacts of noise and vibration. DRAFT 0510910203.'27/0201'11''20I'1 1 '0212'28'010s:44 - 35 2.7.2 Segment A (Northgate to University District) Construction Noise Land use in the Northgate Segment is predominantly single- and multi- family residential and commercial and retail. In the central and southern end of this segment, land use is primarily a mixture of single- and multi - family residential, intermixed with commercial land use along local arterial and collector roadways. Traffic noise from I -5 dominates area noise levels, with peak hour noise levels of 69 to 74 dBA, depending on the distance from the roadway. Because Segment A has the potential for elevated, at -grade (in a retained cut) and tunnel (cut and cover and bored) track segments, the range of potential impacts could come from a variety of sources. Construction of the elevated section of the alignment could involve the use of pile driving. Pile driving can cause noise levels in excess of 100 dBA at nearby noise - sensitive receivers. For the tunnel sections, noise and vibration impacts are expected primarily at the tunnel portal and station locations, where construction staging for tunnel and station construction will occur. Major noise sources associated with the construction of the tunnel sections in Segment A include haul trucks, loaders, cranes, excavators, and tunnel locomotives. Other noise - producing sources include compressors, conveyors, backhoes, generators, ventilation fans and blowers, and light duty vehicles. The locations of cut -and -cover tunnel construction have the greatest potential for temporary noise impacts. Mitigation for construction noise in Segment A is the same as given in Section 2.7.1, with the following additions: A1.1 and A1.2: The Roosevelt Station with alternatives A1.1 and A1.2 is proposed as a construction staging area. Noise sensitive land uses in the vicinity include residential buildings. Major noise producing construction activities that are expected to take place here that were not discussed in Section 2.7.1 include operation of tunnel boring machine(s), loading and hauling of tunnel spoils, the use of locomotives to transport workers and supplies in and out of the tunnel, stock piling of spoils, tunnel ventilation using large fans and support for general tunneling activities. Additional mitigation may include temporary and/or portable noise barriers and enclosures, low- pressure fan silencers, vulcanized belts on all conveyors, and restrictions on haul truck speed. A2.1 and A2.2: With alternatives A2.1 and A2.2, the staging area would be located south of Ravenna Boulevard. Noise sensitive land uses in the vicinity include residential buildings east of I -5. For tunneling, major noise producing construction activities and mitigation would be the same as described above for alternatives A1.1 and A1.2. In addition, construction of the elevated section of A2.1 and A2.2 could involve the use of pile driving, which can cause noise levels in excess of 100 dBA at nearby noise sensitive receivers. Therefore, pile driving, if used, will be performed only during daytime hours. Construction Vibration Construction vibration mitigation is discussed in Section 2.7.1. 2.7.3 Segment B (University District to Westlake Station) Construction Noise Current plans call for major construction staging areas to be located near the entrance to the existing bus tunnel at the existing Convention Place Station and at the Pacific Station on Portage Bay. Additional staging areas will also be placed at the three station locations, N.E. 45th Station, Capitol Hill Station, and First Hill Station. An additional staging area will also be needed at the SR 520 vent shaft. Mitigation for construction noise at these locations is the same given in Section 2.7.1, with the following additions: Pacific Staging Area: The Pacific Station staging area is proposed as a major construction staging area. There are several noise sensitive land uses in the vicinity, including the University of Washington and residential buildings. Noise producing construction activities that are expected to take place here that 36 DRAFT 05/09/020'.'27'0201 I l .02;11 1 11 0212'28'0l0>'- 2: 411 81 Z W. UO CO W' W =.

Convention Place Staging Area: The Convention Place staging area is proposed as a major construction staging area. There are several noise sensitive land uses in the vicinity, including the Camlin Hotel and the Tower 801. Other sensitive uses include the Washington State Convention Center, the Paramount Theatre and miscellaneous retail and commercial use structures. Noise producing construction activities that are expected to take place here that were not discussed in Section 2.7.1 include loading and hauling of tunnel spoils, the use of locomotives to transport workers and supplies in and out of the tunnel, stock piling of spoils, tunnel ventilation using Large fans and support for general tunneling activities. Because of the close proximity of noise sensitive land use at this location some more creative forms of construction noise mitigation may be necessary. Additional mitigation includes portable noise barriers and enclosures, low- pressure fan silencers, vulcanized belts on all conveyors, and restrictions on haul truck speed. Construction Vibration Major vibration producing activities and equipment that will be used in Segment B include tunnel . excavation using a boring machine, tunnel and shaft excavation by conventional methods, and soil compacting. Other vibration producing construction activities such as pile driving and vibratory support and sheet installation are not expected in this segment. Other less notable vibration producing sources include haul trucks, loaders, cranes, excavators, and tunnel locomotives. As stated, mitigation of vibration is not always possible, and in many cases vibration monitoring and restriction of specific activities during those times when they would be most disturbing is the only recourse. For the majority of the Segment B alignment, the tunnel is deep enough to allow for 24 hour, 7 -day a week boring with minimal impacts. The three locations that may have potential for vibration impacts due to tunneling are the N.E. 45th Station staging area, the Capitol Hill Station, and the Pacific staging area. Mitigation and monitoring of vibration producing activities, as described in Section 2.7.1 and above should be sufficient for vibration control in these areas with the following additions: Pacific Station: Vibration sensitive receivers near the Pacific Station include the University of Washington facilities and residential uses. Because of the close proximity of some of the uses to activities such as construction of the elevator shafts, the potential for temporary vibration impacts could be high in this area. Sound Transit will establish a dialogue with the nearby sensitive receivers, and monitor vibration - producing activities. This, along with the mitigation measures described previously, will help to limit impacts and disruptions due to construction vibration. First Hill Station: Vibration sensitive receivers near the First Hill Station include the Swedish Hospital, the Virginia Mason Hospital, the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center and some nearby commercial and residential land uses. Because of the close proximity of some of the hospitals and activities such as construction of the elevator shafts, the potential for vibration impacts is high in this area. Sound Transit will establish a dialog with the nearby hospitals and any other sensitive use identified, and monitor vibration - producing activities. This, along with the mitigation measures described previously, will help to limit impacts and disruptions due to construction vibration. Convention Place Staging Area: Vibration sensitive land use near the Convention Place staging area include residential and hotel, and potentially some theaters. Mitigation and monitoring of vibration producing activities, as described in Section 2.7.1 and above should be sufficient for vibration control in this area. If specific complaints are received, mitigation will include restricting some vibration producing activities during nighttime hours when the impacts have the greatest affect on the nearby sensitive land uses. 37 MA r• r 05/0910203 :27102x l '1 i 0201 ' 1 ! '0212:28'010F 2.t 'a; 2.7.4 Segment C (Westlake Station to S. McClellan Street) Construction Noise Major noise sources associated with the construction of Segment C include haul trucks, loaders, cranes, excavators, and tunnel locomotives. Other noise producing sources such as compressors, conveyors, backhoes, generators, fans and blowers, and light duty vehicles would also be required. Current plans call for major construction staging areas to be located west of I -5 at the west portal, and at the Rainier Valley portal. An additional staging area will also be placed at the Beacon Hill Station. Mitigation for construction noise at these locations is the same given in Section 2.7.1 with the following addition: Beacon Hill Station and Tunnel Portals: Land use around the Beacon 1 -fill Station includes residents, churches and schools. and is considered an area with a high potential for construction noise impacts. Construction of the underground structures at this location will require 24-hour shifts , at tines for 7 -days a week. Construction noise at the surface will be limited by City of Seattle noise ordinances, with such variances as will be negotiated with the City to allow the necessary limited night -time and weekend surface work activities required to support the underground construction. The Contract will require the Contractor to select equipment and working methods to meet the terns of the noise ordinance, as amended by variance, which may also require a continuous noise -wall around the perimeter of the station construction staging area. . Land use at the Rainier Valley tunnel portal includes residential to the west, and commercial and retail to the south and east. Because the residential area to the west is up hill from the portals and construction staging areas. mitigation of noise from the staging areas may be difficult. Construction activities at this location will he required to meet the local noise control ordinance, however, at certain periods during construction, such as when the tunnel boring machine reaches the tunnel east portal after construction of the tunnels from the west, and during certain tunnel finishing operations. 24 -hour shifts may be necessary for a short period. Land use around the west portal construction staginu area is I -5 freeway. industrial uses and open space. This is the principal 'IBM tunnel construction staging area for Beacon Hill. This West Portal area will he used 24 -hours a day 6 -days a week throughout the tunnel construction, with all the tunnel materials and muck removal being trucked 10 and from here. For these 24 -hour operations, a noise variance from the City of Seattle niay be required. The Contract will require the Contractor to select equipment and workine methods to meet the terms of the noise ordinance. as amended by variance. These mitigation measures. alone with those given in Section 2.7.1. will mitigate noise impacts. Construction Vibration Major vibration producing activities and equipment likely to be used in Segment C include tunnel excavation using a boring machine, tunnel and shaft excavation by conventional methods, and possible 38 DRAFT 05/09/0203:27'02011 1 '0201:11 '0212'2g'01 off: :444 soil compacting or pile driving. A construction vibration monitoring program along with public meetings and the vibration mitigation measures given in Section 2.1.2 are recommended in this area. 2.7.5 Segment D (S. McClellan Street to Boeing Access Road) Construction Noise Because the alignment is at -grade through this segment, construction noise levels are not expected to be as high as projected for the tunnel construction staging areas. As sections of track are finished, the construction activity will move away and begin working on other sections. If nighttime construction activities are performed, mitigation measures may be necessary and could include temporary noise barriers and restriction of certain types of activities, such as excavation and demolition. The mitigation measures provided in Section 2.7.1, along with information provided here, should be sufficient to mitigate construction noise levels along Segment D. Construction Vibration The only major vibration producing activities expected in this segment are pavement demolition and soil compacting the track bed prior to track installation. The vibration mitigation measures provided in Section 2.7.1 should keep any vibration impacts to a minimum. 2.7.6 Segment E (Tukwila) Construction Noise and Vibration Construction of the elevated section of the alitznment coulcl involve the use of'pile driving. which can :cause noise levels in excess of 100 dBA at nearby noise sensitive receivers.

For those areas where either residential or hotel/motel land use exist, mitigation measures provided in Section 2.7.1 and under Segment D will help to reduce noise impacts. Construction of the elevated section of the alignment involves the use of pile driving. As previously stated, pile driving can cause noise levels in excess of 100 dBA at nearby noise sensitive receivers. Therefore, pile driving, if used, will be performed only during daytime hours. The mitigation measures 39 DRAT 05/09/0203.2711201 '11 020).'11'0212-'28'0 t "S 2344 provided in Section 2.7.1, along with information provided here, should be sufficient to mitigate construction noise levels along Segment F. Construction Vibration Construction activities and vibration levels for the at -grade tracks are the same as given under Segment D and in Section 2.7.1. No significant construction vibration impacts are projected in this segment. For the elevated section of trackway, vibration from pile driving may result in vibration impacts at nearby receivers. Limiting the hours of pile driving along with the other vibration mitigation measures given in Section 2.7.1 should be sufficient to minimize vibration impacts from project construction in this segment. 2.7.8 Maintenance Base Site No construction noise or vibrations impacts are expected at the maintenance base site. 2.8 ECOSYSTEMS 2.8.1 Common To All Segments Mitigation for short -term ecosystem impacts will be based on a hierarchy of avoiding and minimizing impacts and compensating for unavoidable adverse impacts. The implementation of best management practices (BMPs) such as silt fencing, stabilizing exposed soils, landscaping with native plants, marking the limits of clearing, and collecting runoff during construction would minimize impacts on wetlands, wildlife, and fish. Minimization of the constriction footprint will reduce new and existing impervious surface area. Additional mitigation measures are described below. In many instances, construction timing can reduce or eliminate impacts on wetlands, fish habitat, and threatened and endangered species. Restricting construction in wetland areas to the drier summer months minimizes the impact on those wetlands that flood only during winter and early spring months and reduces wetland impacts caused by stormwater runoff. Staging areas will -be located outside of wetlands or potential wildlife habitat. Impacts on some fish species will be avoided by using methods to avoid or minimize in -water work. If in -water work is required, it will be conducted during construction windows established by the appropriate regulatory agencies, including the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife. The hydraulic project approval permit (HPA) will specify construction periods. The project will comply with the conditions of the 1 -IPA and all other applicable pcnnits. To avoid sediment runoff to the Duwamish River and its tributaries and adverse effects on salmonids and other fish species, a temporary erosion and sedimentation control plan and BMPs will be implemented (see. Water Resources). At construction sites over or near the river and its tributaries, water quality will be measured regularly throughout the construction period to ensure control pleasures are in place and functioning properly. . Removing invasive riparian veectation and re- veeetatinn and monitoring the disturbed areas will minimize the degradation ofproperly functionin�c2 stream channel conditions. Additionally, the littht rail transit cars will he desigmed to prevent pollutant releases. 2.8.2 Segment B (University District to Westlake Station) The removal of tunnel spoils through trucking and/or barging could result in decreases in water quality from increased truck traffic and run -off from sediment stockpiles. Impacts resulting from barging the tunnel spoils include: potential increases in predation on juvenile salmonids in the vicinity of proposed mooring dolphins for spoils barges; shading and noise disturbance of near shore habitat due to placement of barge facility; placement and removal of dolphins could result in 40 DRAFT 05/09/0203'27'020) 11 020 {'1 1 0212'28'01 Y. -24444 decreased water quality and a disturbance of bottom sediments and habitat; and decreased water quality in the vicinity of the barge due to sediment runoff from the site and/or the barge. Potential impacts from barging tunnel spoils will be mitigated by using a closed conveyor system over open -water portions to load spoils onto barges. The barge loading facility will be located as far off shore as possible to minimize impacts to nearshore juvenile salmon migration routes. Newly constructed dolphins will be removed upon completion of construction. In all cases adherence to in -water timing restrictions for placement and removal of pilings will be required. The work in Portage Bay would occur between August 1 and March 15 to minimize impacts to bull trout. Barges will be modified to control stormwater runoff and prevent sedimentation.- Potential modifications include watertight walls, raising, lengthened, or otherwise modifying barge walls to contain material, and/or adding curbs at access openings to better control standing water on the deck. Appropriate barge modifications and adherence to BMPs will minimize water quality impacts. A silt curtain will be placed around the barge while it is at the terminal to limit the area affected by accidental loss of material into the water. Measures to control runoff during a 100 -vear storm event will be installed on the banes used to transport spoils. Any compensatory mitigation that may be required will be provided at levels commensurate with the residual impacts. This mitigation includes funding studies to evaluate the effectiveness of strategies to eliminate populations of bass in the Ship Canal. An existing pier in Portage Bay will he improved to create less "predator- friendly" structure. Potential impacts from trucking tunnel spoils will be mitigated by implementation and strict enforcement of BMPs to control sediment runoff along the truck route and at the stockpile site. 2.8.3 Segment E (Tukwila) Wetland impacts that could occur clurim! construction in this set. ntent include increased sediment ancl pollutants in runoff from exposed soils and construction equipment. and placement of temporary III for construction access . The I3ocin'u Access Road Station footprint is approximately 50 ft from a wetland and would temporarily impart Tess than 0.10 acre of the wetland buffer durinti construction. Mitii'ation for these impacts include the hest management practices and timing restrictions identified at the beginning of this section. Impacts on migrating ehinook and coho salmon could occur due to increased turbidity in the Duwamish.Green River (AR -45. 46) resultine from bridge construction over the f)uwamishiGreen River and construction in the vicinity of Gilliam Creek (AR-52, 53. and 55) and the mainstem of Southgate 41 DRAFT 051 09/ 0203, 2710201'1I1)201'1141212'2WOIU' ?'11 236 Creek (AR --181. impacts on listed fish can be minimised by performinu in -water construction, between July 16 and October 31. when Chinook salmon are not migrating through the project area and by implementing best management practices during construction. 2.9 WATER RESOURCES 2.9.1 Common To All Segments Water quality degradation resulting from erosion and sedimentation and the release of pollutants during construction will be minimized through the use of BMPs. An NPDES permit will be obtained for construction activities associated with this project. The NPDES permit requires development of a Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) for erosion and sedimentation control and for control of pollutants other than sediment. The SWPPP documents all of the BMPs recommended for specific construction sites. Table 2.9 -1 summarizes general BMPs that are recommended for construction sites. w tY 2 UO. co W =.

A variety of special BMPs are available to mitigate construction impacts at crossings or adjacent to streams or watercourses. In addition, temporary creek bypasses will be constructed to route creek water around work sites during pipe replacement or extension. Bypasses will be designed to handle high flows during stone events. 2.9.2 Segment A (Northgate to University District) All of the alternatives will be located near Thornton Creek. Temporary impacts will be mitigated during construction with measures described in Section 2.9.1. 42 DRAFT 05/09'0203'27'024'1 11 "201'11 '0212'284014W 2.'111 Z 2.9.3 Segment B (University District to Westlake Station) The project could impact Portage Bay and Lake Union water quality during construction of the tunnel. During construction, tunnel spoils will be trucked or barged off -site to an approved and permitted facility. If they occur, impacts are expected to be minor and temporary and will be mitigated by applying BMPs as described above. Dewatering of the tunnels could impact water quality at the discharge points. Construction water will be pre - treated prior to discharge to either the storm or sanitary sewer systems in accordance with permits and regulations. 2.9.4Segment- E— (Tukwila) mitigated.

These BMPs will be consistent with Subsection K of Section 80 of the King County Sensitive Area Ordinance (King County, 1990), as amended, and other local ordinances, and will include one or more of the following: • Minimize areas of exposure. • Retain vegetation where possible, especially on steeper slopes. • Seed or plant vegetation that is appropriate on exposed areas as soon as work is completed. • Route surface water through temporary drainage channels around and away from disturbed soils or exposed slopes. • Use silt fences, temporary sedimentation ponds or other suitable sedimentation control devices to collect and retain possible eroded material. • Cover exposed soil stockpiles and exposed slopes with plastic sheeting, as appropriate. • Use straw mulch and erosion control matting to stabilize graded areas and reduce erosion and runoff impacts to slopes. • Intercept and drain water from any surface seeps if they are encountered. • Incorporate contract provisions allowing temporary cessation of work under certain, limited circumstances, if weather conditions warrant. • Install final retaining walls in front of cut - and -fill slopes as soon as scheduling permits. 43 DRAFT 05/09/02 Z re w U O • 0.

Potential impacts include erosion at stockpile and disposal sites. Erosion mitigation is discussed above. For tunneling and mined stations, standard mitigation measures will minimize the erosion potential of the spoils and stockpiles. Using barges to remove spoils near Portage Bay will reduce upland stockpile volumes and thus the potential for construction- related erosion. A closed -face, positive pressure tunnel boring machine could reduce the need for dewatering during tunneling. Using the mitigation discussed for construction- induced vibrations and settlement will help to alleviate settlement- related impacts. 2.11 HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2.11.1 Common To All Segments A formalized health and safety plan and a contaminated soil and groundwater management plan will be required before construction work begins. Public health and safety pleasures will be implemented to minimize exposure through both airborne and direct contact routes. Increased setbacks, additional barriers to public access, and expeditious removal of contaminated materials may be required to limit contact by the public. The health and safety plan will also identify measures to ensure construction worker safety, outline emergency medical procedures, and specify reporting requirements. The soil and groundwater management plan will specify methods and procedures for stockpiling, transportation, disposal, and treatment of contaminated soil, as well as groundwater removal, storage, treatment, discharge (to sewer), transportation, and disposal. Most encounters with hazardous materials are :expected to involve petroleum products that will be managed using standardized approaches and in accordance with the Washington State Department of Ecology policies, procedures and requirements. Throughout the construction process, encounters with hazardous materials will be documented and reported appropriately. Project planning will accoimnodate regulatory agency requirements as well as disposal or treatment facility requirements. 2.11.2 Segment A (Northgate to University District) Alternatives A1.2 and A2.1 are one to two blocks from a site with a known release of petroleum products to groundwater; no impact is expected unless contamination in groundwater migrates during construction. The A1.1 and A2.2 alternatives are further from this site than the A1.2 and A2.1 alternatives, and they would have less potential for impact. The Roosevelt Station in Alternative A1.2 would be 11/4 blocks from one release site that had a contaminate release to groundwater. Impacts will be mitigated using techniques described in Section 2.11.1. 2.11.3 Segment B (University District to Westlake) Soil borings indicate contaminated ground and groundwater at several locations along the underground alignment. Handling of contaminated material encountered during tunnel and station excavation and contaminated groundwater pumped during dewatering will be handled per techniques described in Section 2.11.1. 2.44.4Segment E4Tukwila3 techniques describe) in ;;e tion 2.1 1.1.

This alternative is situated on top of a historic landfill with reported releases to groundwater. All impacts will be mitigated using techniques described in Section 2.11.1 2.12 ELECTROMAGNETIC FIELDS There will be no electromagnetic impacts or mitigation during construction. 2.13 PUBLIC SERVICES 2.13.1 Common To All Segments Sound Transit will continue to work with the cities of Seattle, Tukwila, SeaTac, King County, University of Washington, and Port of Seattle police and fire departments, transportation divisions, and others through Sound Transit's Fire -Life Safety Committee during project construction to ensure that reliable emergency access is maintained and that alternate plans or routes are developed to avoid significant delays in response times. Sound Transit will coordinate with local police departments to ensure adequate staffing during construction for traffic and pedestrian movement control and other necessary policing efforts. Additional staffing requirements and financial responsibilities for police services required during construction will be determined in collaboration with the local police departments. Sound Transit will coordinate with fire departments and hospitals during water utility relocations (see Utilities) to prevent water supply disruptions to these facilities, and it will notify school districts of major construction activities that may affect bus routing during the upcoming school year. Alternative solid waste collection locations, modified collection tines, or other elements to minimize potential impacts to solid waste collection operations will be developed in coordination with solid waste haulers. Mitigation for construction of a maintenance base will be similar to that described above. 2.14 UTILITIES 2.14.1 Common To All Segments Primary measures to mitigate impacts to utilities during construction include identifying affected utilities, developing technical solutions to relocate or protect them, identifying funding sources, developing a work plan that minimizes impacts on both utility service and light rail construction, and minimizing potential interference between light rail and utility operation and maintenance functions. These measures include the following: • Sound Transit will seek to establish fonnal agreements with local jurisdictions, including requesting enforcement of applicable provisions of existing franchise, license, and other utility agreements to allow light rail implementation. • Sound Transit will provide utility relocation benefits associated with relocation of existing city- owned utilities in accordance with city code or charter provisions. Incremental costs of upgrades will be funded by the city. • Compensation for relocation of private utilities in public rights -of -way will be funded by the utility, unless Sound Transit finds the relocation costs constitute an "extraordinary expense." This would unfairly burden the utility, in accordance with the agency's Real Property Acquisition and Relocation Policy, Procedures, and Guidelines and applicable state and federal law. • If construction disrupts private utilities within the private utility's easement or on private property, Sound Transit will provide utility relocation benefits. • General utility relocation and protection methods for crossings parallel and installations have been established.

Z I•-, •2p i0 W O iii z` • - =' • Sound Transit will use utility company base maps as the primary source of the utility information and conduct a limited program of field surveys and reconnaissance to check accuracy of utility locations before final design and construction. The agency will request that utility companies review the accuracy of the base maps. • Sound Transit may complete design of private utility relocations in public rights -of -way in accordance with the utility's criteria and Sound Transit guidelines. If conflicts arise, the more restrictive provisions will govern. • Utilities relocated or protected in conjunction with light rail will be turned over to the utility company to own, operate, and maintain. In addition, the following measures are proposed: • Continue to meet with and coordinate closely with both municipal and private utilities to ensure minimal impact to utilities during construction, including acceptable and safe relocation of manholes and other maintenance access points. • Work with Seattle City Light and Puget Sound Energy to maintain energized electrical lines to provide continuous service to their customers during construction; and maintain clearances of temporary and permanent overhead lines and poles according to Washington Administrative Code safety standards. • Develop a contingency plan to address any potential utility service disruptions during construction and notify utility customers of planned disruptions, if any. • Comply with city requirements and procedures for utility construction, inspection, and operation; coordinate relocations and large service connections with Seattle's Utility Coordinating Committee and similar entities. Use temporary pipe support, trench sheeting and shoring, and other precautionary measures during construction to minimize the potential for damage to exposed utilities. • Mitigation for construction of a maintenance base would be similar to that described above. 2.15 HISTORIC AND ARCHAEOLOGICAL RESOURCES Mitigation measures for historic and archaeological resources are described in the Programmatic Agreement, and its amendments, between the FTA, State Historic Preservation Officer, and Advisory Council on Historic Preservation. 2.16 PARKLANDS Mitigation for the loss of vegetation in parks and greenbelts is discussed in Section 1.8. 2.16.1 Segment A (Northgate to University District) Construction of the elevated structure near Rainbow Point Park and over Ravenna Boulevard will generate truck traffic, dust and noise. Mitigation measures are discussed in sections on construction traffic, air quality and noise. Construction of the elevated structure over Ravenna Boulevard may require temporary street closures. To the extent feasible, closures will be minimized and temporary access will be provided. 2.16.2 Segment B (University District to Westlake Station) Construction activities around staging areas may temporarily restrict access to parklands. Where feasible, alternative access will be provided. Construction activities would also generate noise, dust, and truck traffic that could have an adverse effect on the Burke - Gilman Trail and around Nagle Place. Mitigation measures for these impacts are discussed in other sections. DRAFT 05/09I0203'27.'0201 11 '0301 '1 1 0212'28'01, +8 46 Z mow: J U: U O: W' W =. J CO LL 0, d 1- w • : Z 1- 0. Z 2 U.

McClellan Street to Boeing Access Road) Construction of the elevated structure across Cheasty Boulevard, and the McClellan Station (options Band C) immediately north of the boulevard, may require temporary street closures and impede access to the boulevard. To the extent feasible, closures will be minimized and temporary access will be provided. Construction activities would also generate noise, dust, and truck traffic that could have an adverse effect on the boulevard. Mitigation measures for these impacts are discussed in Section 2.1, 2.6, and 2.7. 2.16.4 Segment E (Tukwila) The Tukwila Freeway Route would cross the river and the I)u vamishfGrecru River Trail on a new .bridge adjacent to the cxistine Interurban brides -- impacts would include construction noise and vibration "'` from trick traffic and the use of heavy equipment for the placement of the structure foundation, and dust. The impacts would he mitigated by orovidine a temporary trail detour and restorine the site to pre- project construction conditions. Mitigation for the loss of vegetation in narks and ureenbelts is discussed in .Section 1.8. If necessary, trail detours would he developed during work across or above the trail. Dust :would be mitigated through use of dust control measures. 47 DRAFT 05/09/02 gt Exhibit C Designated Representatives Sound Transit Light Rail Director or designee City of Tukwila Director of the Department of Community Development or designee Departmental Representatives Sound Transit Ahmad Fazel, Light Rail Director Joseph Gildner, Deputy Light Rail Director for Technical Services Ron Lewis, Deputy Light Rail Director for Support Services Michael Williams, Project Development Manager James Irish, Environmental Manager Leonard McGhee, Project Development Project Manager Rod Kempkes, Line Segment/Final Design Manager Debora Ashland, Architectural Manager Hamid Qaasim, Fire Life Safety Manager Terry Beals, Permit Manager City of Tukwila Steve Lancaster, Director, Department of Community Development Jim Morrow, Director, Public Works Brian Shelton, City Engineer • Bruce Fletcher, Director, Parks and Recreation Tom Keefe, Fire Chief Keith Haines, Police Chief .

W 2 Z CITY OF TUKWILA INTER - OFFICE MEMO TO: Community Affairs and Parks Committee FROM: Steve Lancaster SUBJECT: Link Light Rail Memorandum of Agreement DATE: May 8, 2002 BACKGROUND Sound Transit is seeking an agreement with the City of Tukwila that will establish a framework for future decision - making concerning Link light rail. The proposed Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) would establish the "ground rules" for City plan review and permitting now to minimize "surprises" as Sound Transit designs and builds, and as Tukwila reviews and permits this multi -year project. Staff briefed the Committee of the Whole on the status of the proposed MOA in March. City Council approval of the MOA would not constitute final approval of the project itself. Construction of the light rail system through Tukwila will require an Unclassified Use Permit (UUP). Sound Transit will likely submit a UUP application during 2003. That application will be subject to a City Council public hearing and decision. Portions of the project will also be subject to Design Review, Shoreline Permits, Building Permits and numerous related construction approvals. The proposed Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) would, together with the City's ordinances and regulations, provide guidance for all of those permit decisions (and therefor guidance to Sound Transit as it designs the project). KEY PROVISIONS OF THE PROPOSED "MEMORANDUM OF AGREEMENT" Section 1.1. States Sound Transit's intention to follow the Tukwila Freeway Route (TFR) through Tukwila.

If transferred to the City, the City must preserve and maintain the property in perpetuity in accordance with The Secretary of the Interior's Standards for the Treatment of Historic Properties. The City may undertake any recommendations of the restoration plan at its own discretion, but any "improvements" the City chooses to make to the property must be consistent with the plan.

The City must ensure that any lessee or tenant of the property abides by the provisions of the agreement. Section 11. Provides for monetary compensation to the City for expenses incurred in carrying out the provisions of the agreement.

Mullet, Mayor Parks & Recreation Department MEMORANDU RECEIVED MAY 8 2002 CITY OF TUKWILA MAYOR'S OFFICE TO: Mayor Mullet Community Affairs and Parks Committee FROM: Bruce Fletcher, Director of Parks & Recreation DATE: May 8, 2002 SUBJECT: Foster Golf Links Course Renovations ISSUE Bruce Fletcher, Director As identified in the Foster Golf Links Six -Year Master Plan, the course renovations project includes the renovation for holes #1, #8, #9 and the relocation of the putting green. BACKGROUND The six -year plan outlines the periodic renovation for correct or enhanced drainage and to continue creation of a "change of play" necessary to maintain quality and to attract new golf patrons. Some of this project work will adjoin the existing design work for the new clubhouse and involve providing storm detention grading to support the clubhouse. The Berger Partnership has provided the landscape architecture and site planning for the most recent six -year master plan. David Clark Architects (Foster Clubhouse Architect) has obtained the Berger Partnership for all landscape design surrounding the new clubhouse. The Clubhouse Committee has determined that the Berger Partnership Landscape Architecture firm is the most qualified firm to design the Foster Golf Links course renovations. To solicit and contract with an alternate firm would not lend itself to the required cooperation and coordination with the clubhouse and course renovations. RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the Mayor be authorized to negotiate the Scope of Work and Terms of the landscape architecture for the Foster Golf Links course renovations.

The play structure was installed in 1992 and shows visible signs of wear and tear. Normally, structures need to be replaced every 10 years. Technology and ADA requirements change. It is likely that this structure is no longer in compliance. A newer updated structure would be an asset to the park and meet current guidelines. The project is expected to cost $30,000. Paul Surek will be available to answer questions. We will need to set up a public hearing to officially cancel previous projects and reallocate funds for this purpose.

Please check one: Our City does not elect to receive and administer the above estimated pass - through. Our City elects to receive and administer the above estimated pass - through with the conditions outlined in the 2000 -2002 Community Development Block Grant Interlocal Cooperation Agreement. Among other responsibilities, we recognize that in accepting a pass - through we are accepting the responsibility of allocating the pass - through funds in accordance with the Consortium's schedule for submission to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. Cities which accept the pass - through should check the following if applicable: Our City would like to allocate a portion of our funds for public (human) service activities. Our City would like to allocate a portion of our funds for planning and administration activities. Our City is eligible to request the use of additional planning and administration ceiling. We request the use of any unreserved Pass - through Cities' ceiling, if available. Per Consortium Guidelines, when a Pass - through City reserves its planning and administration ceiling in the Spring, it has the ability to request to use additional ceiling to cover administrative costs. Such requests will have priority over requests to use additional ceiling for planning projects and will be granted only to cities that: a) run a competitive application process, and b) participate in Consortium -wide planning activities. We would like to request additional funds for the following: Our City would like to contribute a portion of our capital funds to the King County Housing Repair Program so that our residents may participate.

Memorandum To: Mayor's Office, City Council CC: From: Evie Boykan, Human Services Coordinator Date: 3/25/02 Re: CDBG pass through acceptance Each year as a pass through City, we receive an allocation of Community Development Block Grant funds, which are used to assist low and moderate income residents with housing, and community development needs. Funds can be used for infrastructure (public facilities, parks, property acquisition, rehabilitation), public or human services and planning and administration. There are certain restrictions such as how much money can be used for planning and administration and public services. Additionally, some projects will trip the Uniform Relocation Act or the Endangered Species Act regulations. Council will need to act on three items related to Community Development Block Grant. Agree to receive and administer the pass- through CDBG funds. 2. Allocate a portion of the funds for human service activities, planning and administration, if desired. If not desired, these funds can be used for capital projects. 3. Indicate an estimate of how many funds should be allocated to the King County Housing Repair program for 2003. This estimate can be changed as the City further defines how it wants to allocate funds for next year. Current projections, subject to change indicate that we will receive $226,449 for next year. This allows us to spend $26,810 for human service activities, $16,926 for planning and administration and $182,713 for capital projects. This does not include any unspent funds from this year or previous years. (currently, $149,647). For your information, allocations for this year are in the following areas: King County Home Repair - $88,235 (remember that a 15% administration fee is deducted) 1 3 April 25, 2002 Minor Home Repair - $18,000 Utility Connections - $30,600 (The use of block grant dollars for this project has been cancelled) Latch Senior Housing - $5,000 Senior Program Support - $25,696 Duwamish Neighborhood Sidewalk Project - $104,954 (Use of block grant dollars for this project has been cancelled). The first quarter report from the King County Housing Repair program for 2002 shows that 7 projects are pending at an estimated value of $52,500. $75,000 is available to commit for the rest of the year. Council and Administration will need to determine a rough estimate for housing repair for next year. The recommendations from the King County Housing Repair office is to be consistent with our amount from last year. This can be changed as we progress toward more defining our block grant projects later this spring. Strategies that have supported our decisions include the following: Preserve, maintain and improve existing housing stock for citizens at or below 80% of median income. 2. Consider funding regional housing projects administered by the County. 3. Work in conjunction with City departments and the community to define and prioritize public infrastructure needs. Prioritize and fund infrastructure improvements that contribute to improved neighborhood quality. 4. Define and prioritize public facility improvements that contribute to improved neighborhood quality. 5 Address human service needs that support healthy development and independence. Direct public service dollars to targeted populations to enhance their well being. 6. Consider supporting planning and administration activities that support analysis and identification of needs and evaluation of possible solutions.

If, by statute or order of public authority, greater clearances shall be required, Lessee shall strictly comply with such statute or order. (b) IF, ON APPLICATION BY LESSEE, EITHER OR BOTH THE LATERAL AND VERTICAL CLEARANCES ARE PERMITTED TO BE REDUCED BY ORDER OF COMPETENT PUBLIC AUTHORITY, LESSEE SHALL STRICTLY COMPLY WITH THE TERMS OF ANY SUCH ORDER, AND INDEMNIFY AND HOLD HARMLESS LESSOR, REGARDLESS OF ANY NEGLIGENCE OF LESSOR, FROM AND AGAINST ANY AND ALL CLAIMS, DEMANDS, EXPENSES, COSTS AND JUDGMENTS ARISING OR GROWING OUT OF LOSS OF OR DAMAGE TO PROPERTY OR INJURY TO OR DEATH OF PERSONS OCCURRING, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, BY REASON OF SUCH REDUCED CLEARANCE. (c) Lessor's continued operations with knowledge of an unauthorized reduced clearance shall not constitute a waiver of the foregoing covenants of Lessee or of Lessor's right to recover for resulting damages to property or injury to or death of persons. 11. (a) Lessee shall not permit the existence of any nuisance on the Property; shall keep the same in clean and safe condition and free of any explosive, flammable or combustible material which would increase the risk of fire, except such material necessary to Lessee's business; shall not handle or store any potentially dangerous or toxic materials or hazardous materials, except as listed in Section 12 (b); and shall not permit the accumulation of junk, debris or other unsightly materials.

Lessee also shall give Lessor timely notice of all measures undertaken by or on behalf of Lessee to investigate, remediate, respond to or otherwise cure such release or violation. In the event that Lessor receives notice from Lessee or otherwise of a release or violation of environmental laws which occurred or is occurring during the term of this Lease, Lessor may require Lessee, at Lessee's sole expense, to take timely measures to investigate, remediate, respond to or otherwise cure such release or violation. Lessee shall bear the expense of all practices or work, preventative or remedial, which may be required because of the condition or use of the Property, by Lessee or those claiming by, through or under Lessee, during Lessee's period of occupancy. Lessee expressly agrees that the indemnification and hold harmless obligations it hereby assumes shall survive cancellation of this Lease. Lessee agrees that statutory limitation periods on actions to enforce these obligations shall not be deemed to commence until Lessor discovers any such health or environmental impairment, and Lessee hereby knowingly and voluntarily waives the benefits of any shorter limitation period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained herein shall be construed as an indemnification by the Lessee of the Lessor for third party claims resulting solely from preexisting conditions or conditions subsequent to Lessee's term of use. (b) In this connection, Lessee expects to use on the Property the following hazardous materials: gasoline, oil, diesel and cleaning products, and to store on the Property the following hazardous materials: gasoline, oil, diesel and non - chlorinated cleaning products unless otherwise approved by Lessor. Lessee shall respond to Lessor's reasonable inquiries regarding the use or condition of the Property, and Lessor may enter the Property at such reasonable times and upon reasonable notice to Lessee.

(b) Lessee understands, as one of the material considerations of this Lease without which it would not be granted, that Lessee agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Lessor and assumes all risk of injury to or death of all persons, and damage to or loss or destruction of buildings, contents, or other property (including animals) brought upon or in proximity to the Property by Lessee, or by any other person WITHOUT REGARD TO WHETHER SUCH BE THE RESULT OF NEGLIGENCE OR MISCONDUCT OF ANY PERSON IN THE EMPLOY OR SERVICE OF LESSOR OR OF DEFECTIVE TRACKAGE, EQUIPMENT, OR TRACK STRUCTURES.

Lessee shall promptly pay and discharge any and all liens arising out of any construction, alterations or repairs done, suffered or permitted to be done by Lessee on Property and shall indemnify Lessor against any loss, liability or expense incurred by Lessor on account of such liens. Lessor is hereby authorized to post any notices or take any other action upon or with respect to Property that is or may be permitted by law to prevent the attachment of any such liens to Property; provided, however, that failure of Lessor to take any such action shall not relieve Lessee of any obligation or liability under this Section or any other Section of this Lease. If, • :,...... _... because of any act or omission of Lessee, any mechanic's lien or other lien, charge or order for the payment of money shall be filed against Lessor or any portion of the Property, Lessee shall, at its own expense, cause the same to be discharged of record within thirty (30) days after written notice from Lessor to Lessee of the filing thereof, and shall indemnify and save harmless Lessor against and from all costs, liabilities, penalties, and claims, including legal expenses, resulting therefrom.

Because of the proposed project's proximity to the City of Renton and the acquisition of additional right of way within the City of Renton, you may wish to inform and consult with them on the proposed retaining wall along the east side of the tracks. Our understanding is that all the work will be occurring in BNSF right of way and BNSF acquired right of way; therefore, permits will not be required. Because the work is taking place immediately adjacent to sensitive sites, including the Green River, we would like a copy of the proposed construction schedule and to review the revegetation plans for the disturbed shorelines before the work is begun. Thank you again for consulting with the City on the proposed improvements.

Specifically, this letter addresses comments you provided in your letter dated September 26, 2000 regarding the application of railroad pre - emption for state and local permits. The construction of track improvements will be conducted by BNSF as part of a series of improvements along the rail corridor between Seattle and Tacoma. The work is being undertaken by BNSF to ensure safe and efficient movement for the joint operation of interstate freight and commuter rail train service. The proposed improvements are required by BNSF in order to ensure that freight operations will not be adversely affected by Sounder commuter service. BNSF has designed and their contractors will construct the improvements; Sound Transit is funding them. The construction activities described in this package include the installation of a fiber optic line along the entire length of the corridor and the construction of a signalized crossover north of Orillia. The fiber optic line will house the communication system for BNSF track signal operations as well as the commuter rail communication lines. The signalized crossover is necessary to provide adequate capacity for the joint operation of both BNSF freight transportation and Sounder commuter rail. The planned improvements are vital to interstate commerce and are therefore subject to federal law that generally preempts state and local permitting processes (See City of Auburn v. U.S. Government, 154 F.3d 1025 (9111. Cir. 1998)). Despite federal preemption, Sound Transit intends to work collaboratively with the City to ensure that the substance of your permitting requirements are satisfied, even if formal Central Puget Sound Regional Transit Authority Union Station 401 S.

Existing Commuter Rail capacity includes 2 trains in the morning traveling north and 2 trains in the evening traveling south. Future service would include 6 trains traveling north and 3 traveling south in the morning, and 6 trains traveling south and 3 trains returning north in the evening. PROJECT DESCRIPTION There are several track improvements within the BNSF right -o €way between Tacoma and Seattle required to get Sound Transit Commuter Rail service operating at its full capacity. Within the City of Tukwila, improvements include a Fiber Optic (FO) line that would be installed along the entire BNSF right -of -way and three signalized crossovers (north of Orilla, south of the Black River crossing, and near Boeing Access Road). Fiber Optic Line Construction The FO line would be installed along approximately 40 miles of BNSF right-ofway between Tacoma and Seattle. The FO lines would be encased in 2- and 4 -inch PVC pipe and nested together (up to ten lines) in a single trench that would be a maximum 14 inches wide and a maximum of 6 feet deep. The average depth would be closer to 4 feet deep. A minimum of 2 feet of cover is required over the lines. The lines would be generally installed on the eastern side of the tracks. In some cases, this would not be feasible and the line ould un for short distances along the west side of the tracks — in which case the line woul..e DP tinder the tracks to avoid disturbance to rail beds. The trench would generally be installed using a small track hoe, ditching machine, or similar conventional trench and excavation equipment. If rock were encountered before the minimum depth is achieved, rock equipment (saws and jackhammers) would be used. The trench would be completely closed at the end of each day. Equipment operators would not open more trenches than can be closed each day. No excavated material would remain at the end of each shift. Within the project corridor, there could be as many as three crews working on the utility line installation simultaneously. Each crew would have no greater than 1 mile of trench opened at a given time, and generally open trench lengths would be less than Y2 mile. After closing the trench each day, the ground within the trench line would be compacted to the density of the undisturbed ground. No rail ties would be removed or disturbed as a result of this activity. At culverts, near wetlands, and under rail beds and roadbeds, DD would be employed to allow the installation of the lines without impacting the sensitive receptor or requiring the road or rail to be altered. The DD equipment would be placed away from the sensitive receptor at entry and exit points of the boring tunnel. Once the boring has been installed and cased with steel pipe. the PVC encased FO lines would be threaded through. There is one river crossing at the Black River within the City of Tukwila. Currently FO lines are bolted to one sl a of the Black River bridge. The new FO lines would be secured to the bridge in the same way. a existing casing on the bridge would be remj ved and -replaced with dual 10" casings, one on each side of the brid eg _or a single 12 "_casing Construction work would be done from the bridge and thc_land, and no in -water work is required. Where the FO lines meet the bridge footings, a hole would be drilled through the footing and attached to the bridge deck on the other side.

A crossover consists of switches and connecting track sections that allow a train to switch from one track to the other. Crossovers are intended to improve safety and reduce train delays. Two signals are located at each end of the crossover. Each signal consists of a flashing light that indicates whether it is safe to proceed on a particular track or if there is an oncoming train. The light is placed on 20- foot -high signal mastL approximately 10 feet from the edge of the closest railroad tie. Each new signal require. widening the existing berm by approximately 10 x 10 feet to allow the plac of the signal nast oting. Small (6x6 feet)steel storage units calle signal bungalows house the signal's electronics. One signal bungalow is needed per crossover (for two signal masts) and the bungalow is constructed within the BNSF right-ofway. All work associated with the crossover occurs within the existing BNSF right -of -way. The rail bed is widened to allow for the shifting of track necessary for the installation of the crossover. When this widening is complete, the resulting berm is used as the staging aea for laying out the crossover track, and for the installation of the new switches and signals. To install the berm, track and ballast material will be placed using track-based dumpers, which are hopper cars with a dumping mechanism. Due to the small workspace, the ballast will be compacted using hand compactors. These small compactors are motorized with engines similar to a lawnmower. :Gf el `accessraTi'ips to the top of the berm are created. They consist of a graded slope tapering d o wn from the top of theberm and connecting to the existing road network. Construction Activities Specific to Longacres (MP 11.4) The general signalized crossover description above describes the work to be done within most of the affected area. At MP 11.4 (Longacres), there will be retaining walls constructed in the buffers of wetlands located on each side of the track in the jurisdictions of Renton and Tukwila. Though no wetland will be directly affected, the project is located within wetland buffers. Extensive measures will be used to avoid and minimize the effects of the track work on the adjacent wetlands. These measures are described in the Conservation Measures section at the end of this report. The goal at MP 11.4 is to replace the current crossover with a longer switch. To complete this improvement. !a; ° °. 600.. foot lorig ,'l0,foot.high,retainirig;.wall will be installed on�tl e''eastryside'of the .0 grail te�d3 This retaining wall is located within the City of Renton. The rail bed will be widened for this 600 feet by approximately 35 feet to provide the width necessary to install an additional signal berm and allow track shifting necessary for the installation of these improvements. When this widening is complete, the resulting berm will be used as the staging area for the completion of the small retaining wall to be constructed on the opposite side of the rail bed. 1 The 600 -foot retaining wall will be built from the adjacent property using traditional methods for concrete wall construction. using heavy equipment, the contractors will dig a 5- foot -deep trench the base of tbelberm in which to pour the footings. Soil from the trench would be stockpiled out of the land and wetland buffer areas. The contractors will then construct the formwork and from the adjacent area of the tracks, pour the concrete using pumper trucks. From the top of the rail bed, using existing soil and some additional fill, the area between the current rail bed and the new retaining wall will be filled.

This wall is located within the City of Tukwila. An existing culvert crosses underneath the area where the crossover and associated retaining walls will be constructed. Once the improvements are in place, the culvert will be cut flush with the retaining walls. In addition a 15 -foot long access ramp and gate will be constructed at the northeast end of the project area. Activities Specific to MP 10 (south of the Black River Crossing) and MP 6.8 (Boeing Access Road) Specific plans are not yet available regarding the signalized crossovers at MP 10.0 and 6.8; however, the general description of signalized crossover construction applies. A portion of the crossover at MP 10.0 will be constructed within 200 feet of the Green River and within 200 feet type III wetlands on both sides of the tracks. The crossover at MP 6.8 will be constructed within 200 feet of the Boeing Access Road wetlands located on either side of the tracks. The wetlands at Boeing Access Road are hydrologically isolated. POTENTIAL IMPACTS AND PROPOSED MITIGATION Fiber Optic Line Construction In most cases the FO line would be installed at the outer edge of the BNSF right-ofway. In general, vegetation is limited in the BNSF right -of -way. In some locations, the right -of -way is vegetated, though often with non - native plants indicative of disturbed areas. Potential impacts include removing vegetation. Approximately 4,000 ft2 of vegetation will be removed within 200 feet of the Black River during the installation of fiber optic cable across the Black River Bridge. Removed vegetation would be replaced with native plants a 2:1 planting ratio within 300 feet of rivers and streams. An additional 5,500 ft' of vegetation removal is anticipated within 200 feet of the Green River in the area north of the Longacres wetland and south of the Boeing Access Road wetlands (MP 11.4 -6.8). Non - stream areas with vegetation disturbance would be mulched and planted with native species where appropriate. Falling debris from overwater construction could impact water quality in the Black River. Signalized Crossover Construction at Longacres Approximately 5,230 yd3of fill material (approximately 330 yd3 in Tukwila) will be required to complete the construction of both retaining walls and the associated berms. About 0.58 of an acre of wetland buffer would be filled for both walls (approximately .04 acres in Tukwila). Approximately 34,000 ft` of grading will occur within the track bed. Approximately 400 yd3 of material will be excavated to construct the retaining wall on the eastern side of the tracks (located within the City of Renton). Mitigation for work in the Longacres area (MP 11.4) will include removing an area of blackberries and other invasive species encroaching on the wetland the same size as the buffer area affected (1:1 ratio) and replanting with native species. In addition to specific mitigation measures indicated above, the following conservation measures will be employed during construction to minimize impacts to sensitive areas and threatened and endangered species. Mitigation /Conservation Measures • Timing windows for juvenile chinook and coho would be observed. • If at any time, as a result of any project activities, fish are observed in distress, a fish kill occurs, or water quality problems develop (including equipment leaks or spills), operations would•cease and the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife and the Sound Transit Commuter Rail 4 December 12, 2000 Washington Department of Ecology shall be contacted immediately. Work would not resume until further approval is given by the abovementioned agencies. • DD will be used to install the FO line in the vicinity of wetlands and other sensitive areas. • If DD is unfeasible, the FO line would be relocated. No construction would occur within wetlands. • No dewatering would occur. • Equipment and construction materials will not be stored or used in wetlands, streams, or rivers. • Drilling will be performed in such a manner as to prevent any material from entering the waters of the state. • Any waste and debris generated by the project will be collected and removed to a legally permitted waste disposal site. • Concentrated accumulations of bird feces, and nests on bridges will not be allowed to drop into the water. This material will be scraped from the bridge structure, collected and disposed of at an appropriate upland location. • A sediment and erosion control plan has been developed for the project. • At all times, erosion control measures will be installed prior to beginning any trenching activities. Extra measures will be employed in and near wetlands, waterways, ditches, swales, and drainage areas. • Temporary erosion control equipment will remain in place until final site stabilization is complete. • Work will not occur during periods of inclement weather if it is not possible to contain all sediments and wastewater to prevent their entry into adjacent wetlands, streams, or rivers. • Any area outside the gravel rail bed that has inadvertently had vegetation removed will be stabilized with mulching and planting of native species where appropriate. • Best management practices will be followed for all phases of the project. Temporary best management practices (BMPs) will include filter fabric fence placed at the tow of 111 slopes and adjacent to sensitive areas. In areas that have the potential for higher flows, straw bale check dams, erosion control blanket, and plastic sheeting will be employed. • All equipment used in or around state waters will be clean, in good repair, and steamed cleaned and inspected prior to use to ensure that no fluid leaks are present. This inspection will take place at least daily while in use to ensure it remains clean and in good repair. Should a leak occur, the equipment will be immediately removed from the area and not used again until adequately repaired. Fueling of equipment will not take place within 300 feet of surface waters. • An emergency spill containment kit will be located onsite, and a pollution prevention plan detailing planned fueling, materials storage. equipment storage, and waste storage areas will be prepared to address prevention and cleanup of accidental spills. • If visual or olfactory examination reveals contaminated material while trenching, it will be removed to a legally permitted waste disposal site and clean material used for backfill. • Mitigation for work within 300 feet of salmon - bearing streams would include planting of native vegetation where vegetation with riparian habitat function is removed. These plantings would include conifers and be in a 2:1 ratio above the area of removal. A monitoring program would be established to ensure vegetative survival.

SPECIAL PRESENTATION: a. State of the Judiciary Tukwila Municipal Court Judge Peter Lukevich, thanked the Council for their time and updated them on activities and successes enjoyed by the Municipal Court. He complimented staff, Court Administrator Darlene Heskett, and staff representative Maria Moorehouse for their work and efforts. Judge Lukevich reported that although there has been a decrease in crime throughout the county, the business of the court did not reduce substantially. Total violations charged through October 31, 2000 were less than the previous year and represent a three -year decline. He attributed the decline to the healthy state of the economy throughout the region, hard work of the Police Department in enforcing laws and being vigilantly available. He also shared the judicial philosophy that the court will administer fair and efficient due - process along with providing for a proper sentence. Although, violations were down, numbers of hearings did not decrease. Thus far in 2000, the court handled approximately 20,013 hearings. Part of this number is attributed to the Des Moines video calendar, which represents 1,124 hearings alone. Tukwila's hearings remain high at 18,889. Judge Lukevich attributed that to the efforts of the probation officer. Consequently, the court is beginning to see people accountable for their reviews and follow through with sentence requirements, etc. z <z 0 cn w. 1 O w gQ, CO d. �w z� Z o. U0 O N` ww LL'O Z' I" U- 0 z City of Tukwila Page 2 of 11 City Council of Whole Meeting Minutes November 27, 2000 Judge Lukevich reviewed the total revenue generated by the Court, which also continues to increase. The approximate total gross amount received by the Court to date is $734,000. Fines and fees decreased, which is consistent with the reduced number of violations charged. However, booking fees, probation monitoring, and collection interest has increased significantly. Additionally, the Court received funds from the City of Des Moines for the payment of the video conference hearings. The total amount retained by the City of Tukwila has increased over the last several years. The City will retain the net of $528,133. Since 1998, the City was retaining approximately 63% of the revenue. Currently, the City is retaining approximately 70% of the total revenue. He noted that the Court shares a portion of the traffic fines and criminal fines with the state, which represents a 68 %132% share between the Court and the state, respectively. Judge Lukevich explained how the Court would accomplish the Recall Project goals. The project is another effort between the Court and the Neighborhood Resource Center (NCR). A set of procedures has been developed for telephone contact by working with the NRC volunteers and Officer Abbott to make calls to warrantees notifying them that they have an outstanding warrant. The warrantee is allowed a specified period of time to appear in court and pay an appropriate warrant fee to have the mater reset and brought back to the court to administer due process. There are some exceptions. These include cases involving domestic violence and drunk driving. These cases will not be subject to the process as they involve other issues that are of a more serious nature and tend to be more complicated, such as the issuance of no- contact orders, or other restrictions. Another highlight in 2000 includes the Probation Department. A probation officer was hired on July 11, 2000. The officer has approximately 183 active probation cases comprised of 147 defendants. There are 32 defendants in warrant status who have failed to appear and abide by their obligations imposed by the court. Currently, the officer monitors approximately 48 probationers, which includes monthly monitoring or other conditions imposed by the judge. In addition, the probation officer assists with the Domestic Violence Task Force and actively seeks community -based treatment options so dependents can be referred to appropriate places to gain skills and behavior changes to make a difference in their life. The officer is also working on the development of sound probation policies and procedures and will complete a formal training program through the Washington Criminal Justice Training Center in February 2001, which is required for probation officers. Judge Lukevich shared some of the goals for 2001 and noted one is to reduce the number of outstanding warrants. The court will be initiating an effort with the SRO through the Police Department to present classroom instruction about the Municipal Court at both Shoalwater and Foster High Schools, which will cover the basics of the judicial systems and the impact of misdemeanor and gross misdemeanor criminal history to reach out and interact with young people. The court will increase its operational efficiencies to include a filing and fee collection, improving and utilizing full technology that is available, and additional cost recoveries such as emphasis on the public defender and interpretative fee recoveries as well as the ongoing jail costs recovered from defendants. Also, staff will be evaluating court procedures and sentencing requirements for crimes related to domestic violence including such issues as the timeliness of z W. • CC 6� O 0 co J f ur: w0 ga �w z �. �-O z U• a 'O N` w • W.

One of the keys to success in domestic violence prosecution is the ability to prosecute the case quickly. The court does not wish to become an impediment to that goal and will assess the process to ensure the court is helpful to the process. Judge Lukevich said he would also be concentrating on sentencing alternatives and will research some better alternatives for defendants. Judge Lukevich reported staff would also integrate the probation office within all aspects of the court to ensure all operational aspects are coordinated. He reported he is hopeful that the court will work with south county judges to develop a uniform set of treatment guidelines with key service providers. He noted this program was successfully implemented in Thurston County. Another goal is to develop training programs for employees to ensure employee growth professionally and personally. Councilmember Carter thanked Judge Lukevich for the information and asked if he would be willing to add the reduction of outstanding warrants as a program goal within the budget. Judge Lukevich acknowledged his interest in having it added to the budget. Councilmember Carter inquired about the probation officer liability and referred to a recent news article concerning the issue and asked if he could provide any information that could be provided to the Legislature. Judge Lukevich referred to the Seattle case that created the controversy and noted it has not been litigated. Consequently, the anticipated fallout of the case has been tabled to some extent. Last year, there was a concerted effort by the Legislature to develop a set of standards that could be adopted by municipalities and governments throughout the state. He noted the issue failed, predominately because of trial lawyers. Judge Lukevich said the court is doing the right thing by maintaining responsibility and directorate over the probation officer's activities, which provides a cloak of judicial immunity over those behaviors. Other cities are not doing this and that is why there are cases. Generally, in those cases, probation officers are given carte blanche. Councilmember Haggerton noted the court revenues appear to be higher than the forecast and asked if there is a standard rate charged for the Des Moines arraignment service. Judge Lukevich reported Des Moines is charged $700 per month for the service. Councilmember Haggerton asked if the Court is in a position to offer services to other cities. He noted the question is often raised during his attendance at AWC and Suburban Cities Association meetings. Judge Lukevich reported that due to the current physical arrangement and existing operations, he would advise against expanding the service. Councilmember Fenton inquired about the status of the School Court Program. Judge Lukevich reported the program was initiated in early 2000 with the convening of one court date. However, the student judge was involved in an automobile accident. Since then, the court hasn't been convened. Council President Duffle acknowledged Judge Lukevich's outstanding job and thanked him and his staff for their good work. z � w 116 U, 'UO: .moo w= COw w0 H o N.

CITIZENS' COMMENTS /CORRESPONDENCE: Dwayne Traynor, 14910 88" Avenue South, Tukwila, complimented the City on the efforts of Public Works employee Scott Moore. Robert Barnett, 13633 42" Avenue South, Tukwila, reported he works at the Regional Justice Center. He referred to a project occurring in Pacific Heights. He commented that on 42 "d Avenue, the traffic has become extremely heavy and he and other neighbors are encountering difficulty in accessing and leaving their driveways. He asked the Council to review the issue. PUBLIC HEARING: a. Commuter rail unclassified use permit and design review Planner Moira Bradshaw briefed the Council on the request by Sound Transit for approval of a Sounder Temporary Tukwila Station. Within the Tukwila Urban Center zone, mass transit City of Tukwila Page 5 of 11 City Council of Whole Meeting Minutes November 27, 2000 facilities are unclassified uses and developments over 2,500 square feet require design review. Current regulations require the Council to adopt findings and conclusions to either deny, approve, or approve conditions of the request. Planner Bradshaw submitted the staff report as part of the record. Planner Bradshaw described the location and specifics about the project. The station platform will be located at the end of Longacres Way off West Valley Highway. She reviewed the general layout of the proposed platform and accessory uses. The platforms are 10 feet deep and 600 feet long and are located on each side of the Burlington Northern Santa Fe railroad tracks (northbound & southbound). The platforms include two shelters, constructed with a fiberglass top and clear acrylic sides and back. Assess to the platforms will be from a ramp on each side along with a set of stairs — two for the northbound and one for the southbound. Planner Bradshaw reported staff is recommending approval of the temporary Sounder Station with the conditions outlined in the staff report. She referred to other improvements required for the project (Exhibit H), which will include improvements to Longacres Way. There will be access from the City of Renton from 16th Avenue South during the 2 -hour morning and afternoon commute period. Sound Transit is proposing a gate or barrier to prevent other access during the day as a through street except during the four -hour am/pm commute period. Longacres Way is a public right -of -way up to the Puget Sound Energy right -of -way (near the Interurban Trail). There are issues that Sound Transit will need to accommodate for. Planner Bradshaw reported the request is for temporary approval for an unclassified use permit. Sound Transit has committed to building a permanent facility by February 2004. Councilmember Fenton expressed concern regarding lighting for the parking lot. Planner Bradshaw reported that lighting for parking lot would include three poles with double luminaries throughout the length of the parking lot. Additionally, there will be light poles on top of the platforms, lighting underneath the pedestrian underpass, and lighting on Longacres Way between the UP and the BNSF. Councilmember Carter said Sound Transit has reported publicly that the station would be ready by fa11.2001. Planner Bradshaw reported Sound Transit initially applied and had a schedule for a full permanent build -out. The City received an application in 1999 that also included short platting of the property that was acquired from another property owner. There was interest by some private developers about the property secured by Sound Transit concerning access and utilities. A City of Seattle water pipeline separates and runs across the property. A piece of property owned by the City of Seattle actually separates the property. There was an interest in doing a development and Sound Transit believed it was an opportunity for cost sharing of access to the station. However, this has not been negotiated nor has any proposals been submitted. Subsequently, Sound Transit's trains have begun service and Sound Transit felt it had a commitment to provide a station at Tukwila and is about to bring two stations on line in February 2000 (Kent and Auburn). Bringing the Tukwila station on line in the fall of 2000 would result in schedule changes. Comments from existing riders indicated this would be a problem with having City of Tukwila Page 6 of 11 City Council of Whole Meeting Minutes November 27, 2000 to constantly change their respective commuter schedule to keep pace with Sound Transit schedule changes. In October, Sound Transit approached the City for a temporary station. Subsequently, the City received a revised application for the Temporary Sounder Station. Councilmember Haggerton referred to the reference of a future extension of Strander Boulevard and noted the extension is estimated to cost $25 million. The notation includes a reference that the City of Renton also hopes the extension cost will also be partially funded by the City of Tukwila and Sound Transit. He asked if the City should be concerned. Planner Bradshaw reported the City of Renton is in the preliminary stages of evaluating an extension of Strander Boulevard. Renton is considering three different alternatives for extending Strander Boulevard from the City of Tukwila to West Valley Highway. This is a preliminary estimate in connection with the proposal by Sound Transit. City Administrator McFarland reported the requirement to assist with the construction of Strander Boulevard stems from the boundary realignment interlocal agreement signed in 1984 that committed Renton to participate in improvements on 180th and 43`d and committed Tukwila to participate in the Strander Boulevard and 27th improvements. The Public Works Department has been meeting periodically with Renton staff to discuss the City's level of participation on 27th and Strander and Renton's participation in the 43'd and 180'h improvements. Jeff Wolfe, Sound Transit. Project Manager for the Sounder Station answered questions from the Council. Councilmember Hernandez questioned the security arrangements for the proposed station. Mr. Wolfe reported that a security officer would be located at the station from 6:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. This is approximately 16 hours of extra security. Patrons leaving their cars in the park and ride lot will have security overseeing the parking lot. He noted the arrangement has been successful at other stations. Councilmember Carter expressed concerns about the information the public is receiving that a permanent station will be ready next year and the temporary one will be ready in February 2000. She asked for clarification on the accuracy of the information. Mr. Wolfe explained that until the approval for the temporary station was received, Sound Transit did not want to publicly announce the temporary and permanent station. The permanent station was planned to be on line next year, but there has been work with the City to advance the TOD at the site and the City Center. Councilmember Carter reiterated the importance of Sound Transit conveying accurate information on the temporary station to the public as most of the community is under the impression that the permanent station would be built shortly. Mr. Wolfe acknowledged the request to ensure accurate information is conveyed to the public about the temporary and permanent station. Council President Duffle closed the public hearing. z t • r- ' '~ w• . 6 U O co 0 U w 0.

Planner Bradshaw reported the permit could be approved as a temporary unclassified use permit. Councilmember Carter asked the Council to consider a temporary unclassified use permit. Councilmembers concurred. Councilmember Linder inquired about the turnaround time for removal and clean up of graffiti. Planner Bradshaw reported she believes Sound Transit has a policy similar to the City's to cleanup and remove graffiti. Planner Bradshaw indicated the Council could include a provision pertaining to cleanup of graffiti and similar events as a condition of the permit. Planner Bradshaw answered a question from Councilmember Hernandez regarding inclusion of security in the memorandum of agreement. Planner Bradshaw noted the security issue was included in the request for a conditional use permit. Councilmember Simpson asked if restrooms would be included at the station. Planner Bradshaw explained that restrooms would not be located at the station. However, restrooms would be available on the train. Councilmembers agreed to defer the request until the special meeting. b. Proposed 2001 budget and Capital Improvement Program (CIP) 1. An ordinance adopting the 2001 proposed budget 2. A resolution approving the 2001 -2006 Financial PIanning Model & CIP Mayor Mullet reported the review would be oriented from a taxpayer perspective rather than from a City Council perspective for the benefit of the public. Administrator McFarland displayed slides representing a typical property tax assessment, where general fund revenues are expended, and how the capital and general fund is divided. He referred to the fee matrix, which includes information from the Washington Association of Cities Users Guide to capture some of the more common fees within jurisdictions to show how Tukwila compares. Director Doerschel referred to documents available for the public. They included the Mayor's Budget Message, attachments, and a summary of the financial planning model. Director Doerschel reviewed a typical tax assessment for a $150,000 home in Tukwila. The City of Tukwila receives approximately 20% of the total property tax assessment. The largest tax is allocated to the school district, which is voted taxes. The allocation of the state tax is also for schools. Schools comprise approximately 50% of a homeowner's property tax bill. He noted that most of the property tax is paid from the commercial, industrial, and business community (88 %) with approximately 10 -12% from homeowners. z Z o_w 6 'U O. .N o J = i•- U) w w O. u. co Da, • • z� H O w~ .0 uy 'O o � W w` .z •w — O z z Z re 2 6 oO' w= u_ . w g_ D. i-=. zF 1-o: z ,- n • o.

The Utilities Committee had originally planned to forward both agreements to a COW meeting and then forward them to the Special Meeting for approval. However, both ordinances required a review by the City Attorney. If the Council approves them, the agreements will move to a regular Council meeting for adoption. Public Works Coordinator Frank Iriarte reported there has been an increased interest expressed by telecommunications companies wanting to build facilities and provide services to Tukwila and the Puget Sound area. In addition to the franchise agreements, four other companies have expressed an interest in establishing operations in Tukwila. Touch America is a subsidiary of The Montana Power Company, which is a telecommunications company. Touch America has requested a franchise agreement to build a system in Tukwila that will allow them to provide a wide array of telecommunications services ranging from calling card services to dedicated inbound and outbound 800 service to customers in the Puget Sound area. Touch America will provide its services through its network. In 2001, the company is expected to build 26,000 miles of fiber optic systems in the country. The planned project in Tukwila is part of the Spokane to Seattle build and consists of approximately 1.3 miles, which will be built in two stages. The first stage will be the construction phase to include the installation of six two -inch conduits. The second phase will involve accessing vaults and pulling the actual fiber optic cable through the conduits. Directional boring will be the primary construction method. The route will be along South 154th near the vicinity of 6151 Avenue South and will continue west to Sea Tac terminating at a Burien POP site. Staff has negotiated the installation of two 2 -inch conduits for City use at no cost. Councilmember Hernandez expressed concerns with the noise level from the construction and inquired how noise level would be handled, especially in areas located near residential developments. Coordinator Iriarte reported Touch America would be required to comply with the City's noise ordinance. Councilmember Hernandez asked if surrounding property owners would be notified about the construction project. Coordinator Iriarte responded that notices would be posted along the route. Councilmember Hernandez suggested notifying property owners by mail. Council discussion ensued on the noise level related to directional boring. Coordinator Iriati reported staff would be scheduling a Council tour to visit these types of operations at the first of next year. z I• r- cc 11 O 0 co 0 ' cn ur w= w u. = d. z �.. H O; z� 0 F— w w.

Coordinator Iriati indicated he did not foresee any noise problems based on the proposal and the area of operations. Councilmember Carter confirmed that staff has been working on the noise ordinance to improve clarity and clarify defmitions. She noted the proposed agreement is a template that has been developed for both the City and for companies seeking a franchise. Coordinator Iriarte reviewed the proposed NetStream agreement. NetStream is a privately held telecommunications company that provides technologically advanced, high - bandwidth, fiber optic communications infrastructure. NetStream intends to offer integrated telecommunications services including local, long distance, and high speed internet access to customers within the City and the surrounding Puget Sound area. NetStream is targeting customers with high volume voice /data communication needs. NetStream established operations in the Intergate West Technical Park and is located in Intergate West Building "C." After completion of the project, NetStream will access and tie into a backbone system called the Lake Washington loop. The project will also include a local ring that will connect from the Intergate West complex to the Intergate East project. The operation will include two directional boring operations that will involve a north and south directional bore. There will be minimum impact to the right -of -way. Councilmember Fenton asked if any of the companies have expressed interest in expanding to local business and residential for DSL and other high -speed telecommunication services. Coordinator Iriarte referred to Metro Media and reported the company's business strategy is to compete with local telephone companies, such as Quest to provide an array of high -speed data and voice services. The Council approved referring the proposed agreements to the next regular Council meeting. b. An ordinance levying general property taxes for the fiscal year commencing January 1, 2001 Director DoerscheI reported the proposed ordinance was one three ordinances concerning property tax. The County Assessor's Office requires the City to pass the proposed ordinance, which conveys to the County Assessor's Office the total sum of property taxes to be collected and the rate. As mentioned earlier, the ordinance specifies the maximum amount of property tax collection allowed by Referendum 47. The ordinance establishes approximately $9.2 million in property tax revenue. He noted that on December 11, the remaining two ordinances would address substantial need and the rate of the Implicit Price Deflator (IPD). The Council will have the option of changing the $9.2 million at the December 11 meeting. Director Doerschel said he is concerned with the timing associated with the temporary judgement concerning 1 -722. It is conceivable that the Council might have to roll the amount forward until the end of December. The County Assessor's Office is keeping the City informed of any new information. City of Tukwila Page 11 of 11 City Council of whole Meeting Minutes November 27, 2000 Director Doerschel explained why reducing property tax collections would not be an option for the City due to restrictions on the limit of incremental property tax increases the City can impose to catch up due to Referendum 47. The Council moved the request to next Council meeting for adoption. c. An ordinance amending medical, dental and vision benefits for Councilmembers Councilmember Hernandez reported the Finance & Safety Committee recommended approval of the ordinance that would allow Councilmembers the same health plan that City employees have access to. Councilmember Hernandez recommending change the first WHEREAS to read, "WHEREAS, the time and effort of satisfactorily fulfilling the job of Council member have increased in recent years while, fringe benefits, for members has not increased proportionately;" Dwayne Traynor, 14910 58th Avenue South, Tukwila, asked if medical benefits were part of the salary. Councilmembers indicated the benefits were separate from the salary. He noted that the Council does not pay taxes on the benefit. Councilmember Haggerton complimented Council Analyst Lucy Lauterbach for the summary concerning the Council Benefit Package.

ROLL CALL: Present were Council President Joe Duffie; and Councilmembers Joan Hernandez, Pam Carter, Jim Haggerton, Pamela Linder, David Fenton, and Richard Simpson. OFFICIALS: Steve Mullet, Mayor; John McFarland, City Administrator; Bruce Fletcher, Parks & Recreation Director, Peter Lukevich, Municipal Court Judge; Alan Doerschel, Finance Director; Jim Morrow, Public Works Director; Frank Iriarte, Public Works Coordinator; Gail Labanara, Administrative Analyst; Steve Lancaster, Director of Community Development; Brian Shelton, City Engineer; Keith Haines, Police Chief; Tom Keefe, Fire Chief; Moira Bradshaw, Associate Planner; Jane Cantu, City Clerk; Evelyn Boykan, Human Services Coordinator; Maria Moorehouse, Municipal Court; Darlene Heskett, Court Administrator; Lucy Lauterbach, Council Analyst; David McPherson, Development Review Engineer; Shannon Fisher, Recreation Programmer; and Minnie Dhaliwal, Associate Planner. SPECIAL PRESENTATION: a. State of the Judiciary Tukwila Municipal Court Judge Peter Lukevich, thanked the Council for their time and updated them on activities and successes enjoyed by the Municipal Court. He complimented staff, Court Administrator Darlene Heskett, and staff representative Maria Moorehouse for their work and efforts. Judge Lukevich reported that although there has been a decrease in crime throughout the county, the business of the court did not reduce substantially. Total violations charged through October 31, 2000 were less than the previous year and represent a three -year decline. He attributed the decline to the healthy state of the economy throughout the region, hard work of the Police Department in enforcing laws and being vigilantly available. He also shared the judicial philosophy that the court will administer fair and efficient due - process along with providing for a proper sentence. Although, violations were down, numbers of hearings did not decrease. Thus far in 2000, the court handled approximately 20,013 hearings. Part of this number is attributed to the Des Moines video calendar, which represents 1,124 hearings alone. Tukwila's hearings remain high at 18,889. Judge Lukevich attributed that to the efforts of the probation officer. Consequently, the court is beginning to see people accountable for their reviews and follow through with sentence requirements, etc. Judge Lukevich reviewed the total revenue generated by the Court, which also continues to increase. The approximate total gross amount received by the Court to date is $734,000. Fines and fees decreased, which is consistent with the reduced number of violations charged. However, booking fees, probation monitoring, and collection interest has increased significantly. Additionally, the Court received funds from the City of Des Moines for the payment of the video conference hearings. The total amount retained by the City of Tukwila has increased over the last several years. The City will retain the net of $528,133. Since 1998, the City was retaining approximately 63% of the revenue. Currently, the City is http: / /www.ci.tukwila .wa.us /clerk/cow11- 27.htm 05/30/2002 Minutes, 11/27/00 Page 2 of 12 retaining approximately 70% of the total revenue. He noted that the Court shares a portion of the traffic fines and criminal fines with the state, which represents a 68 %/32% share between the Court and the state, respectively. Judge Lukevich explained how the Court would accomplish the Recall Project goals. The project is another effort between the Court and the Neighborhood Resource Center (NCR). A set of procedures has been developed for telephone contact by working with the NRC volunteers and Officer Abbott to make calls to warrantees notifying them that they have an outstanding warrant. The warrantee is allowed a specified period of time to appear in court and pay an appropriate warrant fee to have the mater reset and brought back to the court to administer due process. There are some exceptions. These include cases involving domestic violence and drunk driving. These cases will not be subject to the process as they involve other issues that are of a more serious nature and tend to be more complicated, such as the issuance of no- contact orders, or other restrictions. Another highlight in 2000 includes the Probation Department. A probation officer was hired on July 11, 2000. The officer has approximately 183 active probation cases comprised of 147 defendants. There are 32 defendants in warrant status who have failed to appear and abide by their obligations imposed by the court. Currently, the officer monitors approximately 48 probationers, which includes monthly monitoring or other conditions imposed by the judge. In addition, the probation officer assists with the Domestic Violence Task Force and actively seeks community -based treatment options so dependents can be referred to appropriate places to gain skills and behavior changes to make a difference in their life. The officer is also working on the development of sound probation policies and procedures and will complete a formal training program through the Washington Criminal Justice Training Center in February 2001, which is required for probation officers. Judge Lukevich shared some of the goals for 2001 and noted one is to reduce the number of outstanding warrants. The court will be initiating an effort with the SRO through the Police Department to present classroom instruction about the Municipal Court at both Shoalwater and Foster High Schools, which will cover the basics of the judicial systems and the impact of misdemeanor and gross misdemeanor criminal history to reach out and interact with young people. The court will increase its operational efficiencies to include a filing and fee collection, improving and utilizing full technology that is available, and additional cost recoveries such as emphasis on the public defender and interpretative fee recoveries as well as the ongoing jail costs recovered from defendants. Also, staff will be evaluating court procedures and sentencing requirements for crimes related to domestic violence including such issues as the timeliness of prosecution and how can the court bring about resolution of a case. One of the keys to success in domestic violence prosecution is the ability to prosecute the case quickly. The court does not wish to become an impediment to that goal and will assess the process to ensure the court is helpful to the process. Judge Lukevich said he would also be concentrating on sentencing alternatives and will research some better alternatives for defendants. Judge Lukevich reported staff would also integrate the probation office within all aspects of the court to ensure all operational aspects are coordinated. He reported he is hopeful that the court will work with south county judges to develop a uniform set of treatment guidelines with key service providers. He noted this program was successfully implemented in Thurston County. Another goal is to develop training programs for employees to ensure employee growth professionally and personally. Councilmember Carter thanked Judge Lukevich for the information and asked if he would be willing to add the reduction of outstanding warrants as a program goal within the budget. Judge Lukevich acknowledged his interest in having it added to the budget. Councilmember Carter inquired about the probation officer liability and referred to a recent news article concerning the issue and asked if he could provide any information that could be provided to the Legislature. Judge Lukevich referred to the Seattle http://www.ci.tukvvila.wa.us/clerk/cow11-27.htm 05/30/2002 Minutes, 11/27/00 Page 3 of 12 case that created the controversy and noted it has not been litigated. Consequently, the anticipated fallout of the case has been tabled to some extent. Last year, there was a concerted effort by the Legislature to develop a set of standards that could be adopted by municipalities and governments throughout the state. He noted the issue failed, predominately because of trial lawyers. Judge Lukevich said the court is doing the right thing by maintaining responsibility and directorate over the probation officer's activities, which provides a cloak of judicial immunity over those behaviors. Other cities are not doing this and that is why there are cases. Generally, in those cases, probation officers are given carte blanche. Councilmember Haggerton noted the court revenues appear to be higher than the forecast and asked if there is a standard rate charged for the Des Moines arraignment service. Judge Lukevich reported Des Moines is charged $700 per month for the service. Councilmember Haggerton asked if the Court is in a position to offer services to other cities. He noted the question is often raised during his attendance at AWC and Suburban Cities Association meetings. Judge Lukevich reported that due to the current physical arrangement and existing operations, he would advise against expanding the service. z <z et 2 JU UO. u) 0; U) =. J H CO U- lu 0 LL Q.

Robert Barnett, 13633 42" —d Avenue South, Tukwila, reported he works at the Regional Justice Center. He referred to a project occurring in Pacific Heights. He commented that on 42nd Avenue, the traffic has become extremely heavy and he and other neighbors are encountering difficulty in accessing and leaving their driveways. He asked the Council to review the issue. PUBLIC HEARING: a. Commuter rail unclassified use permit and design review Planner Moira Bradshaw briefed the Council on the request by Sound Transit for approval of a Sounder Temporary Tukwila Station. Within the Tukwila Urban Center zone, mass transit facilities are unclassified uses and developments over 2,500 square feet require design review. Current regulations require the Council to adopt findings and conclusions to either deny, approve, or approve conditions of the request. Planner Bradshaw submitted the staff report as part of the record. Planner Bradshaw described the location and specifics about the project. The station platform will be located at the end of Longacres Way off West Valley Highway. She reviewed the general layout of the proposed platform and accessory uses. The platforms are 10 feet deep and 600 feet long and are located on each side of the Burlington Northern Santa Fe railroad tracks (northbound & southbound). The platforms include two shelters, constructed with a fiberglass top and clear acrylic sides and back. Assess to the platforms will be from a ramp on each side along with a set of stairs – two for the northbound and one for the southbound. Planner Bradshaw reported staff is recommending approval of the temporary Sounder Station with the conditions outlined in the staff report. She referred to other improvements required for the project (Exhibit H), which will include improvements to Longacres Way. There will be access from the City of Renton from 16th Avenue South during the 2 -hour morning and afternoon commute period. Sound Transit is proposing a gate or barrier to prevent other access during the day as a through street except during the four -hour am/pm commute period. Longacres Way is a public right -of -way up to the Puget Sound Energy right -of -way (near the Interurban Trail). There are issues that Sound Transit will need to accommodate for. Planner Bradshaw reported the request is for temporary approval for an unclassified use permit. Sound Transit has committed to building a permanent facility by February 2004. Councilmember Fenton expressed concern regarding lighting for the parking lot. Planner Bradshaw reported that lighting for parking lot would include three poles with double luminaries throughout the length of the parking lot. Additionally, there will be light poles on top of the platforms, lighting underneath the pedestrian underpass, and lighting on Longacres Way between the UP and the BNSF. Councilmember Carter said Sound Transit has reported publicly that the station would be ready by fall 2001. Planner Bradshaw reported Sound Transit initially applied and had a schedule for a full permanent build -out. The City received an application in 1999 that also included short platting of the property that was acquired from another property owner. There was interest by some private developers about the http://www.ci.tulcwila.wa.us/clerk/cow11-27.htm 05/30/2002 z Z. C4 w uJ: -JU 00 U0 w= J H w 0. u. cn =a w 2 z �. I-0. zi—. tu ocn.

A piece of property owned by the City of Seattle actually separates the property. There was an interest in doing a development and Sound Transit believed it was an opportunity for cost sharing of access to the station. However, this has not been negotiated nor has any proposals been submitted. Subsequently, Sound Transit's trains have begun service and Sound Transit felt it had a commitment to provide a station at Tukwila and is about to bring two stations on line in February 2000 (Kent and Auburn). Bringing the Tukwila station on line in the fall of 2000 would result in schedule changes. Comments from existing riders indicated this would be a problem with having to constantly change their respective commuter schedule to keep pace with Sound Transit schedule changes. In October, Sound Transit approached the City for a temporary station. Subsequently, the City received a revised application for the Temporary Sounder Station. Councilmember Haggerton referred to the reference of a future extension of Strander Boulevard and noted the extension is estimated to cost $25 million. The notation includes a reference that the City of Renton also hopes the extension cost will also be partially funded by the City of Tukwila and Sound Transit. He asked if the City should be concerned. Planner Bradshaw reported the City of Renton is in the preliminary stages of evaluating an extension of Strander Boulevard. Renton is considering three different alternatives for extending Strander Boulevard from the City of Tukwila to West Valley Highway. This is a preliminary estimate in connection with the proposal by Sound Transit. City Administrator McFarland reported the requirement to assist with the construction of Strander Boulevard stems from the boundary realignment interlocal agreement signed in 1984 that committed Renton to participate in improvements on 180th and 43rd and committed Tukwila to participate in the Strander Boulevard and 27th improvements. The Public Works Department has been meeting periodically with Renton staff to discuss the City's level of participation on 27th and Strander and Renton's participation in the 43rd and 180th improvements. Jeff Wolfe, Sound Transit, Project Manager for the Sounder Station., answered questions from the Council. Councilmember Hernandez questioned the security arrangements for the proposed station. Mr. Wolfe reported that a security officer would be located at the station from 6:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. This is approximately 16 hours of extra security. Patrons leaving their cars in the park and ride lot will have security overseeing the parking lot. He noted the arrangement has been successful at other stations. Councilmember Carter expressed concerns about the information the public is receiving that a permanent station will be ready next year and the temporary one will be ready in February 2000. She asked for clarification on the accuracy of the information. Mr. Wolfe explained that until the approval for the temporary station was received, Sound Transit did not want to publicly announce the temporary and permanent station. The permanent station was planned to be on line next year, but there has been work with the City to advance the TOD at the site and the City Center. Councilmember Carter reiterated the importance of Sound Transit conveying accurate information on the temporary station to the public as most of the community is under the impression that the permanent station would be built shortly. Mr. Wolfe acknowledged the request to ensure accurate information is conveyed to the public about the temporary and permanent station. Council President Duffle closed the public hearing. Councilmember Carter suggested conditioning the permit for a three -year period to ensure a permanent http://www.ci.tukwila.wa.us/clerk/cow11-27.htm 05/30/2002 Minutes, 11/27/00 Page 6 of 12 station is built expeditiously. Planner Bradshaw reported the permit could be approved as a temporary unclassified use permit. Councilmember Carter asked the Council to consider a temporary unclassified use permit. Councilmembers concurred. Councilmember Linder inquired about the turnaround time for removal and clean up of graffiti. Planner Bradshaw reported she believes Sound Transit has a policy similar to the City's to cleanup and remove graffiti. Planner Bradshaw indicated the Council could include a provision pertaining to cleanup of graffiti and similar events as a condition of the permit. Planner Bradshaw answered a question from Councilmember Hernandez regarding inclusion of security in the memorandum of agreement. Planner Bradshaw noted the security issue was included in the request for a conditional use permit. Councilmember Simpson asked if restrooms would be included at the station. Planner Bradshaw explained that restrooms would not be located at the station. However, restrooms would be available on the train. Councilmembers agreed to defer the request until the special meeting. b. Proposed 2001 budget and Capital Improvement Program (CIP) 1. An ordinance adopting the 2001 proposed budget 2. A resolution approving the 2001 -2006 Financial Planning Model & CIP Mayor Mullet reported the review would be oriented from a taxpayer perspective rather than from a City Council perspective for the benefit of the public. Administrator McFarland displayed slides representing a typical property tax assessment, where general fund revenues are expended, and how the capital and general fund is divided. He referred to the fee matrix, which includes information from the Washington Association of Cities Users Guide to capture some of the more common fees within jurisdictions to show how Tukwila compares. Director Doerschel referred to documents available for the public. They included the Mayor's Budget Message, attachments, and a summary of the financial planning model. Director Doerschel reviewed a typical tax assessment for a $150,000 home in Tukwila. The City of Tukwila receives approximately 20% of the total property tax assessment. The largest tax is allocated to the school district, which is voted taxes. The allocation of the state tax is also for schools. Schools comprise approximately 50% of a homeowner's property tax bill. He noted that most of the property tax is paid from the commercial, industrial, and business community (88 %) with approximately 10 -12% from homeowners. Tukwila is unusual in the state, because sales tax revenue is double than the property tax. In most cities, property tax is the majority of a city's revenue base. Fifty percent of all revenue Tukwila allocates to general government is from sales tax revenue. Director Doerschel outlined how the City expends tax revenue. There is a 50/50 split between capital expenses and operations and maintenance. Approximately 51.3% is for capital projects. Approximately 80% of funding for capital projects is from grants, mitigation, and other sources. Many large street projects were funded up to 85% by grants. Grant funding plays a major role in funding street and bridge projects. http://www.ci.tukwila.wa.us/clerk/cow11-27.htm 05/30/2002 z w ce J0 0 0: N0: cnw. J co u- w0 u. co z �. � 0' zi- n o. U co 0 i—: w W, 0 Z u'0. �w z _; O F.- z Minutes, 11/27/00 Page 7 of 12 General Fund expenditures represent approximately 49% of City revenue. These include expenditures for the Police Department and the jail/judicial system. Tukwila also has a large fire department that includes four stations for a city of 14,000 people. However, Tukwila has more buildings to protect. Councilmember Haggerton pointed out that although sales tax has represented 50% of the City's revenue base over the last several years, it might begin to decline with many more high -tech businesses locating in the City, which might generate more in assessed valuation than in sales tax. Director Doerschel indicated there are some issues with property tax levies, I -722, and other constraints that might limit the growth of property tax. Councilmember Carter referred to the comparison graph and noted that Tukwila does not charge Business & Occupation tax, utility tax, or impact fees for schools or parks. Mayor Mullet reported that a citizen contacted him about a tax on his telephone bill, which reflected that the charge was a "Tukwila Utility Tax." Mayor Mullet advised citizens that if they are using Sprint to check their bills to ensure they are not charged the tax. Staff is reviewing the issue with Sprint to determine why they are charging a utility tax to Tukwila residents when the City does not assess a utility tax. Council President Duffie opened the public hearing. Dwayne Traynor, 19910 581h, Tukwila, said he is pleased that the proposed budget meets Referendum 47 requirements. He expressed concerns with a later agenda item concerning I -722 and the possibility the City might use a loophole to avoid meeting the requirements of I -722. He said he hopes the City takes the initiative and conforms to I -722. Director Doerschel explained that the county assessor is not conforming to I -722 due to the likelihood that the courts will find I -722 unconstitutional. Tukwila is taking a similar position Council President Duffie closed the public hearing. The Council referred the ordinance adopting the 2001 proposed budget and the resolution approving the 2001 -2006 Financial Planning Model & CIP to the next regular City Council meeting. SPECIAL ISSUES: a. Touch America Franchise Agreement Councilmember Haggerton reported the Utility Committee reviewed the proposed Touch America and NetStream Franchise Agreements. The two companies approached the City for laying fiber optic cable throughout the City to enhance the fiber optic cable network. The Utilities Committee had originally planned to forward both agreements to a COW meeting and then forward them to the Special Meeting for approval. However, both ordinances required a review by the City Attorney. If the Council approves them, the agreements will move to a regular Council meeting for adoption. Public Works Coordinator Frank Iriarte reported there has been an increased interest expressed by telecommunications companies wanting to build facilities and provide services to Tukwila and the Puget Sound area. In addition to the franchise agreements, four other companies have expressed an interest in establishing operations in Tukwila. Touch America is a subsidiary of The Montana Power Company, which is a telecommunications company. Touch America has requested a franchise agreement to build a system in Tukwila that will http: / /www.ci.tukwila .wa.us /clerk/cow11- 27.htm 05/30/2002 .� Minutes, 11/27/00 Page 8 of 12 allow them to provide a wide array of telecommunications services ranging from calling card services to dedicated inbound and outbound 800 service to customers in the Puget Sound area. Touch America will provide its services through its network. In 2001, the company is expected to build 26,000 miles of fiber optic systems in the country. The planned project in Tukwila is part of the Spokane to Seattle build and consists of approximately 1.3 miles, which will be built in two stages. The first stage will be the construction phase to include the installation of six two -inch conduits. The second phase will involve accessing vaults and pulling the actual fiber optic cable through the conduits. Directional boring will be the primary construction method. The route will be along South 154th near the vicinity of 61St Avenue South and will continue west to Sea Tac terminating at a Burien POP site. Staff has negotiated the installation of two 2 -inch conduits for City use at no cost. Councilmember Hernandez expressed concerns with the noise level from the construction and inquired how noise level would be handled, especially in areas located near residential developments. Coordinator Iriarte reported Touch America would be required to comply with the City's noise ordinance. Councilmember Hernandez asked if surrounding property owners would be notified about the construction project. Coordinator Iriarte responded that notices would be posted along the route. Councilmember Hernandez suggested notifying property owners by mail. Council discussion ensued on the noise level related to directional boring. Coordinator Iriati reported staff would be scheduling a Council tour to visit these types of operations at the first of next year. Councilmember Hernandez asked why the provision prohibiting construction activities in the evening was only prohibited in areas near hotels. Coordinator Iriati indicated he did not foresee any noise problems based on the proposal and the area of operations. Councilmember Carter confirmed that staff has been working on the noise ordinance to improve clarity and clarify definitions. She noted the proposed agreement is a template that has been developed for both the City and for companies seeking a franchise. Coordinator Iriarte reviewed the proposed NetStream agreement. NetStream is a privately held telecommunications company that provides technologically advanced, high - bandwidth, fiber optic communications infrastructure. NetStream intends to offer integrated telecommunications services including local, long distance, and high speed internet access to customers within the City and the surrounding Puget Sound area. NetStream is targeting customers with high volume voice /data communication needs. NetStream established operations in the Intergate West Technical Park and is located in Intergate West Building "C." After completion of the project, NetStream will access and tie into a backbone system called the Lake Washington loop. The project will also include a local ring that will connect from the Intergate West complex to the Intergate East project. The operation will include two directional boring operations that will involve a north and south directional bore. There will be minimum impact to the right -of -way. Councilmember Fenton asked if any of the companies have expressed interest in expanding to local business and residential for DSL and other high -speed telecommunication services. Coordinator Iriarte referred to Metro Media and reported the company's business strategy is to compete with local telephone companies, such as Quest to provide an array of high -speed data and voice services. The Council approved referring the proposed agreements to the next regular Council meeting. b. An ordinance levying general property taxes for the fiscal year commencing January 1, 2001 Director Doerschel reported the proposed ordinance was one three ordinances concerning property tax. http: / /www.ci.tukwila .wa.us /clerk/cow11- 27.htm 05/30/2002 Minutes, 11/27/00 ,tom Page 9 of 12 The County Assessor's Office requires the City to pass the proposed ordinance, which conveys to the County Assessor's Office the total sum of property taxes to be collected and the rate. As mentioned earlier, the ordinance specifies the maximum amount of property tax collection allowed by Referendum 47. The ordinance establishes approximately $9.2 million in property tax revenue. He noted that on December 11, the remaining two ordinances would address substantial need and the rate of the Implicit Price Deflator (IPD). The Council will have the option of changing the $9.2 million at the December 11 meeting. Director Doerschel said he is concerned with the timing associated with the temporary judgement concerning I -722. It is conceivable that the Council might have to roll the amount forward until the end of December. The County Assessor's Office is keeping the City informed of any new information. Director Doerschel explained why reducing property tax collections would not be an option for the City due to restrictions on the limit of incremental property tax increases the City can impose to catch up due to Referendum 47. The Council moved the request to next Council meeting for adoption. c. An ordinance amending medical, dental and vision benefits for Councilmembers Councilmember Hernandez reported the Finance & Safety Committee recommended approval of the ordinance that would allow Councilmembers the same health plan that City employees have access to. Councilmember Hernandez recommending change the first WHEREAS to read, "WHEREAS, the time and effort of satisfactorily fulfilling the job of Council member have increased in recent years while, fringe benefits, for members has not increased proportionately;" Dwayne Traynor, 14910 581-11 Avenue South, Tukwila, asked if medical benefits were part of the salary. Councilmembers indicated the benefits were separate from the salary. He noted that the Council does not pay taxes on the benefit. Councilmember Haggerton complimented Council Analyst Lucy Lauterbach for the summary concerning the Council Benefit Package.

Mr. McFarland noted that has not been discussed; nor contemplated. Relocation expenses will be borne by the buyers; which may be an equal trade. Further, Mr. McFarland held discussions with the Superintendent of District 125, who has assured him existing liability insurance will remain in effect until the sale is final.

To that end, they should be included within the memorandums of agreement drafted between City staff and Sound Transit. Answering an inquiry from City Administrator McFarland, Sound Transit staff Jeff Wolfe confirmed other cities have prepared and executed such memorandums of agreement regarding operational type issues. In response to a question from Councilmember Carter, Associate Planner Moira Bradshaw assured Council that page 18 of the staff report contains a recommendation of a three -year time period, (February, 2001 to February, 2004).

'KEY- FEATURES Highlights of Proposed Action: `Motion .No. M2000 -101 would authorize the Executive Director to execute a contract with C. A. ` Carey. Corporation for the construction of the' Tukwila temporary Commuter Rail station in the amount of $586;850 and a 10 %'contingency of $58,685 for a total authorized amount not to exceed $645 ♦ Motion No. M2000 -109 authorizes the Executive Director to execute a change order to Contract #RTA/CR 30 -97 with the MBT Architectural for Commuter Rail design services through construction in support of the temporary station in Tukwila in the amount of $60,000 and a 10%' contingency of $6,000, for a total authorized contract amendment amount of $66,000. ♦ Provides Sounder Commuter Rail service to the citizens of the Tukwila and Renton areas plus Boeing and other employees in the area, to receive Sounder service in early 2001. • Allows more time to'develop a significant Transit- Oriented Development (TOD) effort at the site, including property owned by Sound Transit." TOD would increase ridership and could offset 'Sounder capital cost for the permanent station as well as Sounder operational cost. z a• w 6 00 N0 J = f- w0 2 co ?. =w zi zo w w U D .0 H w • w. u. 0: CU.z 0 1 z Discussion of Proposed Action: Sound Transit and the Cities of Tukwila and Renton have created an opportunity to provide Commuter Rail service to passengers at a temporary station until the permanent station can be built in conjunction with a Transit- Oriented Development (TOD) at the site. This temporary station will allow Sound Transit to provide rail service to Tukwila, Renton, Sea -Tac, etc. starting early 2001, with parking, while the TOD is developed over the next 2 to 3 years. Ridership at the temporary station is anticipated to reach 52,000 round trips the first year; 65,000 the second year; and 130,000 the third year for a total of 247,000 round trips in the projected three -year life of the temporary station. Agreements have been reached with Burlington Northern /Santa Fe (BNSF) to build the platforms for the station on their right -of -way. Boeing has agreed to allow Sound Transit to use ;, an existing parking lot on its property for the temporary station's park & ride lot, property that once was part of the .Longacres racetrack. Boeing does not plan to develop this site for several years. Boeing is providing Sound Transit with enough property for 243 parking stalls initially, and the capacity to expand the number of stalls in the future if necessary. Boeing is offering the,,use of this property for this temporary period at a cost of $10 per year. This will leave Sound; Transit's property undeveloped and readily, available for TOD construction. Though no schedule can be determined until a TOD developer is selected, it is anticipated that the first phase of the TOD construction will occur concurrently with the permanent station's construction, with both . the TOD and new station opening in two to three years. The temporary station can be built in a very short timeframe;with the.station opening early next year. • The station design was put on hold in March of 1999 to allow the City time to explore TOD options. The City of Tukwila and Sound Transit are working together to outline a.process and criteria for soliciting development proposals. This will be one of the many items addressed in an"MONbetween Sound Transit and the City of Tukwila that is planned to be presented to the Board for approval in March 2001. This, TODteffort could include up to 20 acres of development. Sound:Transit initially purchased 10 54;acres for. the Park & Ride lot.;This property could be committed to TOD along with ;;privately...held properties to the north and south and with the City's property further north. The developer would likely be required to pay for a portion of the station's capital cost and/or build a parking garage for Sounder. In addition, revenues from the lease, sale, or other agreements for:use of the °property.could be used to offset Sounder's operational costs: ?The delay in design and construction:of the permanent station would give the.TOD developer an opportunity to have input into the design and siting of the permanent station so that the two projects complement each other. BUDGET .,As the temporary station was not in the original scope or program, it will be an addition to the .costs. If the TOD developer does not finance part of the station costs, and/or without revenue ;.from the lease, sale, or other agreement to utilize the property, the temporary station costs could potentially endanger the completion of other planned elements of this project. However, as the station will likely go through significant changes and likely be upgraded as a result of the TOD, Sound Transit would require the TOD developer to finance a portion of the permanent station's construction. This will allow Sound Transit to recover the funds spent on the Motion No. M2000 -01 and M2000 -109 Staff Report Page 2 of 4 temporary station as well as any costs for station upgrades. The revenues from the TOD developer's use can then be used to offset Sounder operational costs. In addition to costs associated with this construction contract for the temporary station, there will be other one -time costs as shown : One Time Costs: Construction: Flaggers $40,000 Safety Edge Tiles $20,000 Moving 'Ticket Vending $ 5,000 Machines (TVMs) Permits, ; . $20,000, Temporary Signage : $ 5,000 $90,000 Design: BNSF flaggers will be paid directly by. Sound Transit, not through the station contractor Platform safety edge tiles furnished by ST, installed by contractor Cost to move TVMs from their temporary to permanent location Temporary signs similar to those. at Tacoma station. Total One -Time Construction Cost $66,000 Design expenses that are requested in Motion No. M2000- 109 The total amount requested under this action, therefore, is the sum of the one -time costs for the construction phase plus the amount requested for construction under the proposed contract.

Motion No. M2000 -01 and M2000 -109 Staff Report .. Other station -based costs associated with this operations of the temporary station that the Board may want to consider are as shown below: Annual Costs: Security at Station $ 90,000 For security officer at station 16 hours a day during Sounder operations; Station Maintenance $ 30,000 Station Utilities $ 5.000 $125,000. Per Year ALTERNATIVES 1) The construction and opening of any station at the Tukwila site could be deferred until the TOD is ready, possibly two to three years from now. • Not Recommended: Tukwila is projected to be one of our heavily used stations. Deferring the Station's opening would: decrease the total ridership of Sounder: In addition, the demonstrated use of the station Would help attract TOD interest. :.2). The permanent station: could be built now, opening in 15 months. Please note that if.aTOD is developed on Sound Transit's property, the developer would likely need to demolish and replace the parking area, and the platforms may not be optimized to a specific TOD. :r; Not Recommended: To build a:. parking lot that would shortly be demolished by a TOD contractor would be difficult to explain to the public. The presence of an operating parking lot on the TOD site would add expense to the TOD construction cost as well as restrict the flexibility in - the :TOD -design. ,Also; the opportunity to have the TOD and station work seamlessly with each other would be.diminished: CONSEcUENCES OF DELAY Waiting;for the permanent station to be built in, or not in, conjunction with the TOD, will delay the opportunity for the citizens in the Tukwila area to partake in the Sounder commute.' Deferring action on the temporary station would mean Sound Transit could'not open the Tukwila, Puyallup, and:Kent stations at the same time along'with the anticipated train schedule change.. Marketing of the stations' openings would be better served if all stations could open under one campaign along with the schedule change. REGIONAL. PARTNERSHIP AND COOPERATION The cooperation of all the partnering groups, the City of Tukwila, the City of Renton, Boeing, and BNSF have shown extreme support in expediting this contract. All parties have recognized the advantages of getting this station open soon and have provided extraordinary support and creative thinking in getting this project done. PUBLIC INVOLVEMENT Though no direct public involvement occurred during the development of this temporary station, calls from the public asking for Sound Transit to open the Tukwila station as soon as possible have been numerous.

Memorandum To: Jeff Wolfe CC: Dan Nelson From: Harvinder Singh Date: 11/15/00 Re: UP drainage Issue Per my telephone conversation with John Howitt and Brian Shelton from City of Tukwila, to resolve the issue of flooding under UP, We need to accomplish the following; 1. Clean the existing drainage system under the UP trestle. This has not been done for the past 2 to 3 years. Will have to regularly maintain it and perform tests to check if the existing drainage system works. Overlay from Nelson Place to BNSF. The existing Longacres St. never got the final lift of overlay. The slotted drains under the UP trestle are 2" above the existing grade and do not collect any roadway runoff. All the catch basins grate inlets are also above grade. 4. Provide a permanent pump station with electric service panel that meets the code requirements. The existing one is a temporary setup. 5. Will need to install a 48" culvert under BNSF tracks before the permanent station is constructed. The culvert xing is approximately 1/4 mile to the north of Longacres St. Also, John Howitt mentioned that if Sound Transit takes the responsibility of maintaining the drainage, they will feel much more comfortable in issuing the permit. 1 z, w' p: . • U' • U 0; UU: 'N •w =. • • W} u- < d • Z w'. z z'-, • •w w` ;ON. w w 1-"' — O; wz. f- H t. • '0 • 1.

Our review was based on the full build out of Phase II using the PM Peak Hour vehicle trips found in Table 3 of the traffic analysis. Based on the interim plan of providing 250 parking stalls on the Boeing Company property, our assumption is that the interim plan will generate one third of the trips generated by completing Phase II. Because the Strander Boulevard connection to the rail station will not be completed by the time the, interim plan is completed (spring 2001), we have re- distributed the trips onto Renton's network and examined potential impacts on major intersections. As a result, we have determined that the anticipated traffic generated by the commuter rail station does not trigger improvements to the City of Renton roadway network. Non- motorized transportation facilities including bicycle lanes connecting Interurban Trail to the interim Commuter :Rail Station should be planned on Longacres Way. If these improvements are not ineluded as part of the interim rail station, they need to be included as part of the final plan. Additionally, it is recognized that at some time in the future, a connection through the privately owned Boeing property to the existing S.W.16th Street bicycle lanes located on the north side of Boeing would need to be negotiated. These improvements would provide non - motorized public access for Renton area residents to a regional trail and commuter rail system. The City of Renton in cooperation with Washington State Department of Transportation, King County, and City of Tukwila is leading the effort to complete the pre - design of Strander Boulevard. This new regionally significant roadway will be grade separated at the Burlington Northern Santa Fe (BNSF) and Union Pacific (UP) railroad tracks. It is planned • to have a • connection to the Longacres Commuter Rail Station site and potential future transit - oriented development between the BNSF and UP tracks. The project cost is estimated to be 25 million dollars. Both the City of Renton and City of Tukwila will share the local cost of this project. 1055 South Grady Way - Renton, Washington 98055 ® This paper contains 50% recycled material, 20% post consumer Moira Carr Bradshaw. City of Tukwila. November 14, 2000 Considering the Strander Boulevard connection directly benefits the Tukwila Commuter Rail Station, it is anticipated that Sound Transit will participate financially in securing this project. .Thank you for the opportunity to review the traffic analysis for the Tukwila Commuter Rail 'Station.'

As a result, we have determined that the anticipated traffic generated by the commuter rail station does not trigger improvements to the City of Renton roadway network. Non- motorized transportation facilities including bicycle lanes connecting Interurban Trail to the interim Commuter Rail Station should be planned on Longacres Way. If these improvements are not included as part of the interim rail station, they need to be included as part of the final plan. Additionally, it is recognized that at some time in the future, a connection through the privately owned Boeing property to the existing S.W.16th Street bicycle lanes located on the north side of Boeing would need to be negotiated. These improvements would provide non - motorized public access for Renton area residents to a regional trail and commuter rail system. The City of Renton in cooperation with Washington State Department of Transportation, King County, and City of Tukwila is leading the effort to complete the pre - design of Strander Boulevard. This new regionally significant roadway will be grade separated at the Burlington Northern Santa Fe (BNSF) and Union Pacific (UP) railroad tracks. It is planned to have a connection to the Longacres Commuter Rail Station site and potential future transit - oriented development between the BNSF and UP tracks. The project cost is estimated to be 25 million dollars. Both the City of Renton and City of Tukwila will share the local cost of this project. 1055 South Grady Way - Renton, Washington 98055 ® This paper contains 50% recycled material, 20% post consumer z , re m. 6 J U� 0O, CO i. w O, g ¢.

Date: 10/17/00 12:25PM Subject: ACTION: Tukwila Unclassified Use Permit -- Temporary Station Moira, Attached and within the text of this Email are Sound Transit's revisions to the Unclassified Use Permit Application as required for the Tukwila Temporary Commuter Rail Station. I'II be driving down to the City today the mailing labels and 11 x 17 site plan that you requested. Please note the following: As part of an MOA being developed between Sound Transit and The City of Tukwila, this temporary station will be scheduled for replacement by a permanent station no later than February 2004. It is everyone's desire that the first phase of the TOD and the permanent station to be completed before February 2004. If that does not happen, Sound Transit will go ahead with the permanent station's construction so that if will be completed by 2004; The request by Sound Transit to tie the Unclassified Use Permit with the Short Plat, while still desired for the permanent station, is not desired for the temporary station. If you have any questions feel free to call me at (206) 398 -5289. Thanks, Jeff «Tukwila Unclassified Use Permit -- Temporary Station.doc» City of Tukwila Department of Community Development Unclassified Use Permit Application A. On a separate sheet, describe the manner in which you believe that your request for an unclassified use permit will satisfy each of the following criteria as specified in TMC 18.66.060. 1. Where appropriate and feasible, all facilities shall be underground. The proposed temporary commuter rail station cannot be placed underground as the platforms must be 8" above the existing track rail. 2. The proposed use will not be materially detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to the property or improvements in the vicinity. The proposed development has been designed to be compatible with current and planned uses in the vicinity. The station will be located along existing railroad track, and will offer both northbound and southbound commuter service in the morning and evening hours. Alternative locations for the commuter rail station, including the initially proposed S.W. 43rd Street/S. 180th Street station, were discussed with Tukwila staff, which recommended the currently proposed location. The site is cleared and Moira Bradshaw - ACTION: Tukwila Unc!tssified Use Permit -- Temporary Station vacant, and its use as a commuter rail station, with associated park- and -ride lot and transit center, will not displace current or planned uses. Amtrak has indicated its intention to use this station for its service as well; the proposal is consistent with that plan. Finally, the station will serve as a destination as well as the start of commuter trips, located as it is in close proximity to the Boeing Longacres employment center. Page 2', The environmental impacts of the proposed use were addressed in Sound Transit Tacoma -to- Seattle Commuter Rail Environmental Assessment (Federal Transit Administration and Sound Transit, June 1998). The analysis and conclusions included in the Environmental Assessment are summarized below. Socioeconomic. The commuter rail would operate on existing tracks. No existing uses would be displaced by the proposal. The proposed action would not involve significant adverse impacts on populations protected by Executive Order 12898, Federal Actions to Address Environmental Justice in Minority Populations and Low - Income Populations. Based on the socioeconomic analysis, the proposed commuter rail station has the potential to provide mobility benefits to transit - dependent populations, while reducing household costs. Transportation. Traffic increases associated with commuter travel to the station would be limited to morning and evening commute hours. West Valley Highway, located west of the proposed station site, is a principal north -south arterial connecting directly to 1 -405. Vehicles would enter the station primarily via South Longacres Way. Operation of the station would not cause levels of service to change from projected future baseline conditions; intersection -by- intersection analysis results are summarized below and discussed in more detail in the Environmental Assessment (EA). The intersections of Longacres Way/West Valley Highway, Stander Boulevard/West Valley Highway and Lind Avenue /SW 16'h Street are expected to operate at acceptable LOS D or better during the 1997, 2010 baseline, and 2010 proposed action p.m. peak hour traffic conditions. The intersection of Fort Dent Road/West Valley Highway is operating at LOS E under existing conditions and would continue to operate at this level under the proposed action. The intersections of Grady Way/West Valley Highway and South 180th Street/West Valley highway are operating at LOS F under existing conditions and would continue to operate at this level under the proposed action. The intersection of Lind Avenue /Grady Way is operating at LOS D under existing conditions, and is expected to fall to LOS E both under the 2010 future baseline and proposed action. The intersections of Oaksdale Avenue /SW 16'h Street and Oaksdale Avenue /Grady Way currently operate at LOS B and LOS C, respectively. The 2010 baseline and proposed action levels of service are projected to fall to LOS E for the Oaksdale /SW 16'h Street intersection and LOS F for the Oaksdale /Grady intersection. Longacres Way is currently in poor condition but is in sufficient condition for this temporary station. The roadway will need to be improved when the permanent station is constructed. This reconstruction would benefit the surrounding property owners. Noise. The proposed commuter rail station is not Moira Bradshaw - ACTION: Tukwila Und-2sified Use Permit -- Temporary Station Page 3 • expected to cause noise or vibration annoyance. Potential sources of noise and ground -borne vibration would include idling locomotives, feeder bus traffic and increased automobile traffic on adjacent roadways. Measures will be taken to control vibration along the commuter rail route, which will operate at first between Tacoma and Seattle; these include rail grinding, wheel truing, wheel flat detector systems, and vehicle reconditioning Z programs. Q �_- Z' Hazardous Materials. No contaminated sites included re 2 on the Washington State LUST, UST, and CSCS lists, or in the federal EPA 6 databases occur on the proposed site, and the operation of the station will v 0 not increase the risk of contamination. co w =. Biological Resources. The proposed station site has n LL been cleared and graded in the fairly recent past, and is currently vacant. w O,. No significant biological resources will be affected by the construction and operation of the station. g Historical, Park and Recreation Resources. No m a properties listed under or eligible for listing under the National Register w. of Historic Properties and the Washington Heritage Register are located on z H or in the vicinity of the proposed station. No parks or recreation facilities would be directly displaced by the proposed use, and no Z E- significant impacts to park and recreation resources located in the vicinity g D, of the station site are anticipated. D Q Cultural Resources. No potentially significant cultural resources were identified during field reconnaissance and no = w archaeological sites are recorded in the project area. If archaeological F- v material is encountered during the proposed project construction, work 0 should be halted and the Office of Archaeological and Historic Preservation LLj z are to be consulted to determine appropriate follow -up. F =' Visual Quality. The station platforms would add some z visual diversity but would have little effect on the visual resources of the area. The station is expected to improve the appearance of the site by replacing unkempt open areas. Safety and Security. The proposed station has been designed to promote safety and security. Potential commuter rail safety and security issues include safe operational interface between all transportation modes, as well as passenger safety and security aboard buses and trains, at transit stations, and in adjacent areas. Pedestrians would use an existing undercrossing, thus avoiding the need to cross the tracks at grade. Passenger security both off and on the train has been incorporated into the proposed project. The design allows for ease of surveillance for police patrol cars. The shelters will be well lighted, well maintained, and patrolled by local police and transit security force. Air Quality. The air quality impacts of the proposed use were evaluated as part of the planning process, in close cooperation with the Puget Sound Air Pollution Control Agency (PSAPCA). The evaluation of air quality impacts indicated that corridor level emissions of carbon monoxide and particulate matter would be reduced under the proposed action relative to the 2010 baseline condition. Emissions of hydrocarbons and oxides of nitrogen would be slightly higher, due to the addition of commuter Moira Bradshaw - ACTION: Tukwila Unc,sified Use Permit -- Temporary, Station. Page,4 rail locomotives. Water Quality. The nominal impacts to water quality at the proposed site are primarily related to associated erosion and contaminant transport during construction. z Earth. The proposed project will involve nominal , = F-: earthwork (i.e. grading) for construction. Re- establishment of vegetation ,t- W in non -paved cleared areas, as soon as possible and application of e: 2 appropriate ground cover, would be used to minimize the potential for 6 v; erosion hazards during operation. U O No 3. The proposed use shall meet or exceed the same standards for w parking, landscaping, yards and other development regulations that are J f-. required in the district it will occupy. w O Site development would be consistent with applicable § Tukwila zoning requirements. The site is zoned Tukwila Urban Center (TUC, U- Chapter 18.28 of the Tukwila Municipal Code). The basic development N a standards (height, yard dimensions, landscaping guidelines, parking, and 1 ui` performance standards in TMC 18.28.080) will be met. The proposed station is z 1_- consistent with the general purpose of the TUC district ( "It is intended to Z O provide an area of high intensity regional uses that include commercial w services, offices, light industry, warehousing, and retail uses. Development 2 M is intended to be pedestrian - friendly, with a strong emphasis on a safe and v O•. attractive streetscape." TMC 18.28.010). The proposed use is generally less 0 H': o intensive and more compatible with nearby uses than most of the other uses identified as unclassified used in the TUC district; these, as listed in TMC 2 v. 18.28.050, include airports, conversions of rental multi - family structures F- to condominiums, correctional institutions, essential public facilities, Z landfills, and transit centers. v Cu co 4. The proposed development shall be compatible generally with the p ~' z surrounding land uses. The site is located immediately south of 1 -405 in the City of Tukwila, within the BNSF railroad track ROW. The City of Renton and the Boeing Longacres facility, where parking for the temporary station will be provided, lie immediately to the east. Other land uses in the vicinity include a large parking area to the east, light industrial buildings, a recreational bike trial, and an existing office building. Much of the area surrounding the proposed station site is experiencing rapid development, and the conversion of undeveloped properties to commercial and /or office related uses is likely to continue. Retail development and other businesses or industries are likely to locate near the proposed station. 5. The proposed development shall to the maximum extent feasible be consistent with and promote the goals, objectives, and policies of the Comprehensive Land Use Policy Plan and applicable adopted area plans. The site is designated as Urban Center in the City of Tukwila's Comprehensive Plan. The Comprehensive Plan describes the City's intent to support a high- density, regionally oriented, mixed use center in Tukwila. The Comprehensive Plan generally supports commuter rail in the Tukwila Urban Center to "help ensure Tukwila's long -term economic viability Moira Bradshaw- ACTION: Tukwila Unssified Use Permit -_- Temporary Stations Page 5 and competitiveness in the region." The Plan's Urban Center Goal 10.3, Transportation and Circulation, expresses the City's intent to "work with transit providers to develop and fund regional park- and -ride and rail locations where traffic and visual impacts on the Tukwila Urban Center are minimized through site design and management" (Goal 10.3.1). Similarly, Goal 10.3.3, Transit Service and Facilities, supports promoting "the development and enhancement of transit service and facilities." The proposed commuter rail station is consistent with these goals. While the existing rail lines fix the location of the station at the east edge of the Urban Center, its presence will help the Urban Center maintain a regional orientation and provide transportation infrastructure for continued growth. Its visual impacts are minimal, and traffic impacts result in no changes to levels of service compared to baseline conditions. 6. The proposed unclassified use shall, to the maximum extent feasible, mitigate all significant adverse environmental impacts on public and private properties. Full consideration shall be given to: a. alternative locations and /or routes that reduce or eliminate adverse impacts; and b. alternative designs that reduce or eliminate adverse impacts. See Response 1, above. The station has been designed to minimize adverse impacts to the site and surrounding area. 1. In the event that a proposed essential public facility of a countywide or statewide nature creates an unavoidable significant adverse environmental or economic impact on the community, compensatory mitigation shall be required. Compensatory mitigation shall include public amenities, incentives or other public benefits which offset otherwise unmitigated adverse impacts of the essential public facility. Where appropriate, compensatory mitigation shall be provided as a close to the affected area as possible. Not applicable as the commuter rail station is neither a countywide nor statewide facility nor is it essential except as desired by the community. 2. For uses in residential areas, applicants shall demonstrate that there is no reasonable nonresidential alternative site for the use. Not applicable as there is no residential area near nor adjacent to the site. 3. For uses in residential areas, applicants shall demonstrate that the use provides some tangible benefit for the neighborhood. Not applicable as there is no residential area near nor adjacent to the site.

The proposed commuter rail station consists primarily of two passenger platforms 600 feet in length adjacent to the existing Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railway tracks with one wheelchair - accessible platform at the northern end of each platform. The platforms will be constructed adjacent to the tracks at the top of the existing embankment, which is approximately 15 feet above the ground level in this location. The platforms will have canopy shelters for commuter rail passengers. Ticket vending machines and other passenger information will be located at the Northwest corner of the parking area. Benches and trash receptacles will be provided on the platforms as well. Pedestrian connection from one side of the tracks to the other can be made by way of the underpass at the railroad bridges that crosses Longacres Way (South 158th Street). Stairs and ramps will connect the platform level to the ground level parking lot, bus transit area and pedestrian ways. At the north end of the site on Longacres Way, a bus transit stop will be provided. A passenger drop -off (kiss and ride) area will be provided north of the parking area. A total of 238 parking stalls will be provided on site. DESIGN REVIEW GUIDELINES from Zoning Code 1. RELATIONSHIP OF STRUCTURE TO THE SITE a. The site is planned to provide visual access to the commuter rail platforms from the street. The design of the vehicular and pedestrian circulation will indicate the entry to the site. The site is designed with the purposed of safely and conveniently connecting all potential modes of transportation at the commuter rail station. b. The parking area will be screened from the public streets by the railroad embankment. c. No buildings are included in the project. 2. RELATIONSHIP OF THE STRUCTURE AND SITE TO ADJOINING AREA a. The site is isolated from surrounding areas by the high embankments to the west upon which the railroad tracks are located. The sites immediately to the north, south, and east are not as yet developed. b. The embankment upon which the BNSF tracks sit will be cleared and grubbed with a hydroseed treatment on both the west and east faces. c. The existing immediate neighborhood character is undeveloped open fields. The greater neighborhood is primarily warehouse /manufacturing. The proposed platform structures and shelters are temporary in nature (three years maximum) and therefore will carry no architectural character. The permanent station will reflect the future changes anticipated in the area. d. The vehicular and pedestrian patterns are designed to provide safe, convenient connections among all modes of transportation using the site: pedestrian, bicycles and other non - motorized modes, passenger vehicles, buses and trains. e. The site is designed to provide one major public entrance for cars and buses from Longacres Way. The secondary access /egress to the site will be from the northeast through the Boeing Longacres site.

On a separate sheet, describe the manner in which you believe that your request for an unclassified use permit will satisfy each of the following criteria as specified in TMC 18.66.060. Z 1. Where appropriate and feasible, all facilities shall be underground. ~ w ce 6 D The proposed temporary commuter rail station cannot be placed underground as the v 0 0 platforms must be 8" above the existing track rail. co o L11 =` 2. The proposed use will not be materially detrimental to the public welfare or injurious u) LL, to the property or improvements in the vicinity. w O The proposed development has been designed to be compatible with current and planned g Q uses in the vicinity. The station will be located along existing railroad track, and will offer (f) a both northbound and southbound commuter service in the morning and evening hours. I w. Alternative locations for the commuter rail station, including the initially proposed S.W. ? �: 43rd Street/S. 180th Street station, were discussed with Tukwila staff, which recommended z 0' the currently proposed location. The site is cleared and vacant, and its use as a commuter rail w w station, with associated park- and -ride lot and transit center, will not displace current or D p planned uses. Amtrak has indicated its intention to use this station for its service as well; the ;p co proposal is consistent with that plan. Finally, the station will serve as a destination as well as 0 E- the start of commuter trips, located as it is in close proximity to the Boeing Longacres z cw.�. employment center. II t= z: in The environmental impacts of the proposed use were addressed in Sound Transit Tacoma -to- twi — Seattle Commuter Rail Environmental Assessment (Federal Transit Administration and r= H. Sound Transit, June 1998). The analysis and conclusions included in the Environmental z Assessment are summarized below. Socioeconomic. The commuter rail would operate on existing tracks. No existing uses would be displaced by the proposal. The proposed action would not involve significant adverse impacts on populations protected by Executive Order 12898, Federal Actions to Address Environmental Justice in Minority Populations and Low - Income Populations. Based on the socioeconomic analysis, the proposed commuter rail station has the potential to provide mobility benefits to transit- dependent populations, while reducing household costs. Transportation. Traffic increases associated with commuter travel to the station would be limited to morning and evening commute hours. West Valley Highway, located west of the proposed station site, is a principal north -south arterial connecting directly to I -405. Vehicles would enter the station primarily via South Longacres Way. Operation of the station would not cause levels of service to change from projected future baseline conditions; intersection -by- intersection analysis results are summarized below and discussed in more detail in the Environmental Assessment (EA). The intersections of Longacres Way /West Valley Highway, Stander Boulevard/West Valley Highway and Lind Avenue /SW 16'h Street are expected to operate at acceptable LOS D or better during the 1997, 2010 baseline, and 2010 proposed action p.m. peak hour traffic • Moira Bradshaw - Tukwila Unclassified UP? Permit -- Temporary Station.doc Page 2 conditions. The intersection of Fort Dent Road/West Valley Highway is operating at LOS E under existing conditions and would continue to operate at this level under the proposed action. The intersections of Grady Way/West Valley Highway and South 180th Street/West Valley highway are operating at LOS F under existing conditions and would continue to operate at this level under the proposed action. The intersection of Lind Avenue /Grady Way is operating at LOS D under existing conditions, and is expected to fall to LOS E both under the 2010 future baseline and proposed action. The intersections of Oaksdale Avenue /SW W 16'h Street and Oaksdale Avenue /Grady Way currently operate at LOS B and LOS C, 6 respectively. The 2010 baseline and proposed action levels of service are projected to fall to J 0 LOS E for the Oaksdale /SW 16'h Street intersection and LOS F for the Oaksdale /Grady co p intersection. w J 1- Longacres Way is currently in poor condition but is in sufficient condition for this temporary p station. The roadway will need to be improved when the permanent station is constructed. This reconstruction would benefit the surrounding property owners. g Q Noise. The proposed commuter rail station is not expected to cause noise or vibration z w annoyance. Potential sources of noise and ground -borne vibration would include idling Z = locomotives, feeder bus traffic and increased automobile traffic on adjacent roadways. H 0 Measures will be taken to control vibration along the commuter rail route, which will operate w at first between Tacoma and Seattle; these include rail grinding, wheel truing, wheel flat D' detector systems, and vehicle reconditioning programs. v O —' 0 H. Hazardous Materials. No contaminated sites included on the Washington State LUST, w w UST, and CSCS lists, or in the federal EPA databases occur on the proposed site, and the operation of the station will not increase the risk of contamination. -L—' O. w z. w Biological Resources. The proposed station site has been cleared and graded in the fairly H recent past, and is currently vacant. No significant biological resources will be affected by z the construction and operation of the station. Historical, Park and Recreation Resources. No properties listed under or eligible for listing under the National Register of Historic Properties and the Washington Heritage Register are located on or in the vicinity of the proposed station. No parks or recreation facilities would be directly displaced by the proposed use, and no significant impacts to park and recreation resources located in the vicinity of the station site are anticipated. Cultural Resources. No potentially significant cultural resources were identified during field reconnaissance and no archaeological sites are recorded in the project area. If archaeological material is encountered during the proposed project construction, work should be halted and the Office of Archaeological and Historic Preservation are to be consulted to determine appropriate follow -up. Visual Quality. The station platforms would add some visual diversity but would have little effect on the visual resources of the area. The station is expected to improve the appearance of the site by replacing unkempt open areas. Safety and Security. The proposed station has been designed to promote safety and security. Potential commuter rail safety and security issues include safe operational interface between Moira Bradshaw - Tukwila Unclassified UsSPermit -- Temporary Station.doc Page 3 all transportation modes, as well as passenger safety and security aboard buses and trains, at transit stations, and in adjacent areas. Pedestrians would use an existing undercrossing, thus avoiding the need to cross the tracks at grade. Passenger security both off and on the train has been incorporated into the proposed project. The design allows for ease of surveillance for police patrol cars. The shelters will be well lighted, well maintained, and patrolled by local police and transit security force. < , Air Quality. The air quality impacts of the proposed use were evaluated as part of the planning process, in close cooperation with the Puget Sound Air Pollution Control Agency 6 o (PSAPCA). The evaluation of air quality impacts indicated that corridor level emissions of N o carbon monoxide and particulate matter would be reduced under the proposed action relative w = to the 2010 baseline condition. Emissions of hydrocarbons and oxides of nitrogen would be I-, slightly higher, due to the addition of commuter rail locomotives. w O. Water Quality. The nominal impacts to water quality at the proposed site are primarily g :3 . related to associated erosion and contaminant transport during construction. N =d Earth. The proposed project will involve nominal earthwork (i.e. grading) for construction. I- al Re- establishment of vegetation in non-paved cleared areas, as soon as possible and ? g p � p f- O, application of appropriate ground cover, would be used to minimize the potential for erosion w hazards during operation. ? o' •U N 3. The proposed use shall meet or exceed the same standards for parking, landscaping, o - yards and other development regulations that are required in the district it will occupy. = w. Site development would be consistent with applicable Tukwila zoning requirements. The site O is zoned Tukwila Urban Center (TUC, Chapter 18.28 of the Tukwila Municipal Code). The ui v (1) basic development standards (height, yard dimensions , landscaping guidelines, parking, and =. ' o�, performance standards in TMC 18.28.080) will be met. The proposed station is consistent with the general purpose of the TUC district ( "It is intended to provide an area of high intensity regional uses that include commercial services, offices, light industry, warehousing, and retail uses. Development is intended to be pedestrian - friendly, with a strong emphasis on a safe and attractive streetscape." TMC 18.28.010). The proposed use is generally less !. intensive and more compatible with nearby uses than most of the other uses identified as unclassified used in the TUC district; these, as listed in TMC 18.28.050, include airports, conversions of rental multi - family structures to condominiums, correctional institutions, essential public facilities, landfills, and transit centers. 4. The proposed development shall be compatible generally with the surrounding land uses. The site is located immediately south of I -405 in the City of Tukwila, within the BNSF railroad track ROW. The City of Renton and the Boeing Longacres facility, where parking for the temporary station will be provided, lie immediately to the east. Other land uses in the vicinity include a large parking area to the east, light industrial buildings, a recreational bike trial, and an existing office building. Much of the area surrounding the proposed station site is experiencing rapid development, and the conversion of undeveloped properties to commercial and/or office related uses is likely to continue. Retail development and other businesses or industries are likely to locate near the proposed station. ! Moira Bradshaw - Tukwila Unclassified U� Permit -- Temporary Station.doc Page 4 5.

The City attorney has advised that the City does not have permitting authority over BN's rail activities because they engage in interstate commerce, in which we may not interfere; The Interstate Commerce:Act only covers railroads, it does not apply to Sound. Transit, a regional transit agency. Sound Transit activities within the railroad right of way are not considered essential to the furtherance of interstate commerce and therefore will require any permits triggered by adopted codes. In any proposals to the City, it is important that ST clarify if the work is being undertaken by BN to improve conditions that are essential for continued interstate commerce or by Sound Transit in order to fulfill its agency objective of providing transit service to the region. .

This needs to be evaluated and solved prior to permit qpproval. Where is the drainage from the Boeing parking lot going? Improvements Where is the fence separating the tracks? Locate and label on the cross section. How may lights and where are they to be located on the plan sheet? Lighting needs to be installed under the BN bridge as well. The ramps and height of the rail /guard barrier need to meet WA ADA requirements. Are the dimensions adequate? The proposed rockery should be a retaining wall, as the City does not allow rockeries for structural retaining. The sidewalk in front of it should be 6 feet and should have a lip on the north side because of the grade change at the edge. Access The Fire Department cannot access the easternmost ramp and platform because the BN bridge does not have the minimum clearance of 13 feet six inches. This could be resolved with an interlocal agreement with the City of Renton for them to provide emergency service for the station. People and cars will still use Longacres Way and Nelson Place. Sidewalk on one side, overlay, and channelization improvements are still needed on these streets. Permits • An Unclassified Use Permit is still required. Because of the change in the project and because your adjacent property owner list is not complete, we need to reissue the Notice of Application and public meeting. You may expect a hearing at the next available Monday night Council Meeting within 27 days from the date of a complete submittal (revised response to the criteria, reduced drawings and accurate mailing labels.) z frZ 00 • An electrical permit from WA State Labor and Industries is required. •:• A building permit for the platforms, railings, ramps and retaining wall is required. Any fence over 6 feet also needs a building permit. A WA licensed engineer stamp will be required on the plans submitted for a permit. Miscellenous There should be trash receptac,�eG�,and telephones on each platform and in the parking lot. //� �! What is proposed for signage? :z.

SOUND TRANSIT -:EC PAGE 02 , I apologize for the delay in getting back to you. i had attempted to fax an earlier version or this letter to my office over the weekend 'out just learned today that it was not received. Enclosed is a draft of elements I would like to see in an MOA. Is do not believe they are inconsistent with the thoughts you provided me last week. Instead, they are more detailed and cover the Sounder station/TOD in addition to Link. I believe that this approach will be more attractive to more Boardmembers. The area we need CO talk about is timing. I had thought that Dave Farling and I had described to you that a draft MOA would be the basis for starting detailed discussions among Dave and Sound Transit Beardmembers. Tnese discussions could lead to an action by the Board formally endorsing the Tukwila Freeway route As we indicated. Dave is willing to pursue hose discussions but is not in a position to represent that the decision has been made. That decision needs to be made in :he context of a Sound Transit Board review of its budget and financial plan scheduled to occur in October and November. I will ask that a telephone conversation be scheduled soon for is to discuss the MOA and the timing of a decision.

Sound Transit will commit an additional $46 million (year 2000 dollars) to the Tukwila Freeway route (E4). 6 D This will include all design and construction costs, permit fees, and required mitigation. The The City will use its best efforts with ST to bring the project in within this budget. w o w =: 2. Mitigation required of ST for the Tukwila segment will be limited to that described within the Record of J Decision by the Federal Transit Administration for the project. Should the City request additional w O: mitigations above and beyond those contained in the Record of Decision, or as required by Federal Law; then the City will be responsible for such additional costs. z ° 3. The City will not pass any new ordinances, essential public facility clauses nor change City codes (e.g., land w. use or zoning) in order to place additional requirements, mitigations or betterments on the project above and z beyond those identified in the Record of Decision or as contained in the cost estimate, unless the City is z o prepared to fully fund in these costs. w 0 p' 4. Tukwila will not impose any fees, regulations. or requirements that could be construed as constituting o D- O transportation concurrency under the Growth Management Act, since ST projects in Tukwila are in 1- themselves concurrency for development that may and will occur within Tukwila. v. O. 5. The MOA should include a plan and schedule for expedited permit processing and approval. iL z U N. 6. The City will work cooperatively with ST during the design and design review process. The City Will work 0 cooperatively with ST to trend the project to the budget so that cost overruns are avoided. Design review shall be timely and major milestone reviews shall be accomplished within 21 calendar days upon receipt of the design submittals. 7. The City will support and work cooperatively with ST to obtain any necessary approvals with WSDOT, affected native American tribes, and any other agencies with jurisdiction concerning the project. 8, The City will provide ST with documentation of the City's concurrence with the adequacy of the Final EIS for the Central Link Light Rail Transit Project and Supplemental EIS for the Link Light Rail Tukwila Freeway route, and to withdraw its pending SEPA appeal of the Central Link EIS. This documentation will also indicate that the Link Final EIS and Supplemental EIS constitute the substantive SEPA compliance for all City actions regarding the Link Light Rail project. 9. The City will find that the Tukwila Freeway route satisfies all requirements of Comprehensive Plan Policies, • particularly, 13.4.14 and 15.2.4 and zoning regulation 18.66.060. 10. The City will not initiate or pursue any legal challenges to the completion of the Link Light Rail project in Tukwila or other segments of the project. Tukwila will support ST's defense of any legal challenges and appeals to the project from other parties, including those from groups or individuals within the City limits. 1 . , 09/26/2000 14 :30 206 -398-5213 r SOUND TRANSIT EXEC PAGE 04 11. The City and ST shall demonstrate and communicate regional consensus with elected officials and staff at the federal, state, and local level, and will work to obtain federal and state financial resources. 12. The MOA must include meaningful enforcement terms and dispute resolution processes. 13. The City will excuse ST from its undergrounding ordinance or will participate in the costs of meeting it. 14. The City will recognize ST as a "Public Street Improvement" and support ST in dealing with utilities and enforcing the terms of their franchise agreements. Specifically, the City will give the notification to move for our project, expedite permitting of relocations, and cooperate with utilities to find alternative right of way locations when necessary. 15. The Memorandum of Agreement between the the City, ST, and King County regarding the Ray- Carrosinno farmstead is incorporated as part of this agreement. The farmstead MOA will have the following basic conditions: • ST will acquire the property, move the farmhouse and reconnect utilities, document the site and have a rehabilitation plan prepared. • The City will purchase from ST, at fair market value, the portion of the property not used for the LRT ROW, implement the rehabilitation plan for the site, and provide for preservation and maintenance of the historic elements of the farmstead in perpetuity. 16. The MOA should specify that the TOD and Tukwila Commuter Rail station be built at the same time. This concurrent construction will allow for significant efficiencies, therefore dollar savings. 17. If ST decides that the commuter rail station should be built in advance of the TOD, the City should: • allow ST to build a platform and park & ride facility, and minimize potential throw away costs once the TOD project is begun. • defer any improvements to Nelson Place and improvements to the at -grade railroad crossing on Strander. Leave those improvements to be done by the TOD developer. 18. Specific TOD commitments requested of the The City: • expedited permits with a consolidated approval process; • provide a single point of contact at the City to guide ST through the permit processes and the development of the TOD; • help both with staff effort and financial commitment of developing the RFP for the TOD. ST and the City will share costs of any other "outside" consultants, analyses, tests, feasibility assessments, etc; • no impact/concurrency or similar fees for Sounder station development; • assurance that the City will not ask ST to convert any of Longacres Way (158th) to public ROW; • assurance that the City will not ask ST to financially contribute to any improvements to Strander Blvd., and that ST will have the right to connect to Strander when it is built. In addition, the design will facilitate a Sounder and TOD connection to the future Strander Blvd. Improvement; • the City will not reject any TOD proposal that meets the required goals and qualifications of the RFP, regardless of the proposal team's makeup. • ST will retain the lead role in the SEPA process or other environmental reviews with City support for the TOD. • ST should retain all revenues generated on ST property. 2 09/26/2000 14:30 206-3913 SOUND TRANSIT EXEC PAGE 05 • ST and the City will jointly pursue additional grant funding for the TOD. • ST retains the right to make the final decision regarding feasibility, pursuit and timing of the TOD and Sounder station development, including the decision to proceed independently with station construction. • The City will pursue obtaining Location Efficient Mortgages for the station area. • The City agrees to support TOD development that represents the highest and best transit oriented uses of the site. 19. To attract a developer, the City should provide several significant incentives and compromises regarding zoning requirements. Such incentives could include ideas such as, significant reduction in parking requirements, increase in height restrictions and lot coverage, decrease in required setbacks, multifamily property tax abatement, reduction or waiver of the impact/concurrency or similar fees, etc. Moira Bradshaw - Re: Sounder Commuter Rail: track improvement at MP 11.4 ............

One last thing -- since I last talked to you, I received the written comments from the pre -app meeting on July 13. The Fire Dept. and Building Div. comments were "no comment" and "n /a."

Moira - I left you a voicemail message concerning this matter and I am also responding in writing. I apologize for my delay in getting back to you on this. The City can issue permits on ST projects and condition those permits notwithstanding the fact that the project may lie solely within Railroad right of way. The Interstate Commerce Act only covers Railroads, it does not apply to local transit authorities. ST activities within the Railroad right of way cannot be deemed essential to the the Railroad for the furtherance of interstate commerce. Thus, ST projects are subject to our permitting processes. Thanks. Bob »> Moira Bradshaw 07/17 8:41 AM »> Bob, Does Sound Transit have the same immunity from local review? Duane Griffin, has checked with other municipalities regarding issuing permits for station related improvements for commuter rail, and found that they are issuing permits. ST is proposing a low wide long platform adjacent to the tracks, railings, and small canopies for weather protection, all within the RR row. Moira Carr Bradshaw Department of Community Development 6300 Southcenter BI, Suite 100 Tukwila, WA 98188 206 - 431 -3651 »> Bob Noe 07/14/00 11:22AM »> Thanks for forwarding Jill's question to me. The City does not have permitting authority within the Railroad's right of way. This conclusion is based on the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals' decision interpreting the applicability of the Interstate Commerce Termination Act in the Auburn case that was appealed to the United States Supreme Court. The U.S. Supreme Court denied review. In sum, the Court held that local jurisdictions cannot exercise permitting authority for any activity a railroad may engage in related to its rails. The Court went even further and implied that a local jurisdiction cannot do anything, like impose conditions on development, against a railroad even for those things not traditionally considered "rails" (i.e. transfer stations), if those additional conditions may create additional costs to the railroad.

As you may recall the program is provided for in Sound Move, the Ten -year Regional Transportation Plan. At that time we conducted three regional meetings: one each in Lynnwood, Tacoma and Seattle, and followed up with individual briefings with those who desired more information, about 15 meetings in all. Through partnerships throughout the region many obstacles have been overcome to have Sounder commuter rail service become a reality on September 18. We have been working closely with Pierce Transit, King County Metro, Everett Transit, Community Transit, Amtrak, and WSDOT on coordination and introduction of the new sign system and the Regional T to the state highway system for wayfinding. We now face another obstacle. Development of the details of the sign program have caused a lapse in schedule and we are at risk of not making our target. Many of the signs in the program are of porcelain enamel that requires 8 weeks to manufacture. We're out of time. We need your help. Though the Tukwila Station is not scheduled to open this fall, the signage for all Sounder stations must be manufactured at the same time. Ladd Huntley, a representative of the signage contractor Sign Tech, will be calling on your permit office with completed permit application forms and shop drawings in hand. Any help that you can provide in expediting the time the process takes or the particular requirements of your jurisdiction would sincerely be appreciated. We are also personally available to answer questions or participate where needed. Thank you very much for your understanding and for any additional support that you can provide in order to ensure delivery of this new service to the region on time.

The City does not have permitting authority within the Railroad's right of way. This conclusion is based on the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals' decision interpreting the applicability of the Interstate Commerce Termination Act in the Auburn case that was appealed to the United States Supreme Court. The U.S. Supreme Court denied review. In sum, the Court held that local jurisdictions cannot exercise permitting authority for any activity a railroad may engage in related to its rails. The Court went even further and implied that a local jurisdiction cannot do anything, like impose conditions on development, against a railroad even for those things not traditionally considered "rails" (i.e. transfer stations), if those additional conditions may create additional costs to the railroad.

If agreeable to the City of Renton, Tukwila would be willing to assume the responsibility for permit review, issuance and inspection for the portion of the station located on the west side of BN's tracks within the City of Renton. Sound Transit will be responsible for initiating, drafting and coordinating the discussion and interlocal, authorized through the Interlocal Cooperation Act (RCW 39.34,) between the Cities of Renton and Tukwila.

The Agreement raises a number issues with respect to the proposed Sounder Station, proposed short plat and Strander Boulevard. The existing Strander Boulevard intersection, roadway improvements and railroad crossing are currently inadequate to allow safe and functional access for the projected commuter rail station traffic. Your proposal to date does not include any discussion of improvements to the railroad crossing, street or intersection. The Agreement with UP refers to gates that are kept locked on non - operational days and open on move -in days, event days, and delivery days. This language from the Agreement does not appear to apply to the projected usage by Sound Transit. All of these points raise the question of when and how Sound Transit intends to use the crossing. Part of your request before the City is to approve a short plat creating 4 lots where 2 currently exist. Criteria for approving any short plat is adequate access. The Agreement states that it may not be assigned to any purchaser or lessee. 6300 Southcenter Boulevard, Suite #100 • Tukwila, Washington 98188 • Phone: 206 - 431 -3670 • Fax: 206- 431 -3665 • Please respond with a detailed plan for Sound Transit's use of Strander Boulevard.

ST and Stuart McLeod are also asking for short plat approval of two lots into four. The City told. ST that we would not approve the project without two access points to the commuter rail parking lot. The major access will be from Longacres Way and the other would be from Strander Boulevard. A Private Road Crossing Agreement was executed in 1996 between Stuart and UP. Stuart installed gates and signage at the crossing but it appears to be locked for most of the time. (See pictures) Six months ago Sound Transit became a party to the Agreement. Issue Now that ST is developing the area for a commuter rail station and is a party to the agreement, the crossing could be used on a regular basis. We are asking ST for technical analysis of the operational impacts of the use of the crossing. We would like to meet with you to discuss the liability implications of this at -grade railroad "Private Road Crossing Agreement." See Attached In addition to the use of the crossing by Sounder and Amtrack motorists, pedestrians, and potentially METRO buses, is the use by future patrons of Stuart McLeod's Lot 4.

They are currently generally described. The easement documents contemplate developing the exact locations at a future date when specific development (plans are known. For this reason, among others, they are not depicted on the !short plat. Please identify the easement language about which you have concern and we will be happy to respond. 2. Steve Kitz from Eastside Engineers has been contacted to modify the Plat sheet by adding the signature block. However, before we have another print made of modified plat sheet, we would like to hear from the City to make sure there isn't anything else that needs to be added to it. / 3. We have applied to UP for a private undercrossing agreement. We hope �/ to receive a response from UP soon and will notify the City at that time. `811D rt1'1/ 4. If the city requires, we would have no objection to dedicating our existing ownership of proposed lot 2 west of the west margin of the UP right of way to the city for road purposes. However, the city should be aware that Boeing strongly objects to this arrangement. 5. The main entrance to the future site will be via Longacres Way. Currently, as per a survey we had done, the clearance of Longacres Way under the UP Railroad is 13'6" (the 9'6" sign is incorrect). This underpass was recently improved by McLeod and we should follow up and see if he did the improvements per City standards, including fire access requirements. 6. `/Lot 1 of ropose Short Plat L99 -0041 abuts the South boundary of Lot 2 of SP 98-0 . Lot 1 of SP 98 -0007 has access all the way north from 158th by virtue of note 12 to that earlier short plat. It references the granting of an easement by lot 2 of SP 98 -0007 to lot 1 of SP 98 -0007 for access. The McLeod interests own Lot 2 of Short Plat 98 -007 as well as Lot 1 of proposed SP L99 -0041. Lot 2 abuts S. 158th. 7. A copy of the settlement agreement between Boeing & McLeod (recording #9601231152) is attached. 8. A copy of the access and utility easement over proposed Lot 1 (recording #9609130558) is attached. 9. McLeod had an existing crossing agreement with UP. The term is indefinite. UP has prepared a new document, which has been finalized (copy attached), adding ST to this agreement. These types of agreements contain a general authorization for McLeod, Sound Transit and their invitees, etc. to utilize the crossing.

Comments on bullet items: a) It is our understanding that an agreement between the City and McLeod exists that provides for this purchase by the city from McLeod at $1.82. We believe this agreement is attached to the land and remains in existence regardless of the owner. However, this is an issue between the City and McLeod. (recording #9203161730) b) We would like to discuss this at our next meeting. c) Both McLeod and Sound Transit should have a clearer understanding of what is proposed before there can be an agreement to support the LID. Even if we agree to this, we would want to reserve the right to contest the method of calculation, failure to include benefited property within the LID, and the amount proposed to be levied against the property. d) We would like to discuss this at our next meeting. e) We would like to discuss this at our next meeting. 11. The agreement describing road reservation for Strander Blvd. (recording #9203161730) is attached. 12. No, it will be located by design in a manner that does not interfere with drainage. 13. Please explain the basis for the city's concerns with the time limits in the existing easement documents. See response 6. 14. See response 6. 15. Puget Sound Energy has a private easement across the UP ROW for _.access to their sub station. No easement currently exists for access to this +''substation across ST property. At this time we are negotiating with Puget !_'Sound Energy to determine whether the substation is operational. (Tax } '`arcel 36 is not part of the short plat and we have no certain knowledge ��P P P g concerning access to this parcel, but have heard that access is provided by 4a private crossing agreement between PSE and UP.) c,uy 16. The storm water calculations include Strander Blvd. improvements up to the UPRR crossing. Longacres Way is not included since it is too low to collect for detention purposes. 17. The BNSF Right of Way is also the city of Renton boundary. This line is shown on the architectural general site plan PG -05, but is not labeled as the City of Renton boundary. This will be shown in future submittals. 18. Boundary between Lots 3 and 4 will be addressed in the future. We have not heard from the City about this, so we assume the boundary is OK. 19. See response #2. 20. The civil engineers and architects have participated in a series of meetings with City staff. It seems a consensus with the City has been reached, that shows we can do the design to the level 1 detention requirements and that the flood plain is not an issue. We will have to install the 48" storm drain below the BNSF ROW. KPFF still needs to put the final touches on the report and will issue it in the next submittal to the City. Our concern at this moment is that we have preliminary, verbal buy -off from the city but nothing in writing. 21. Sound Transit has examined the feasibility of using the north lot as a storm water detention site and has determined that the use of the site for storm water detention is not feasible due to the low elevation. 22. See item 20 above. A verbal agreement between the City and MBT has Z W, Or UO. u) J N W: W0 u_ Q. D. a: W Z Z� Z O. UJ Dp. O N; W W. H V' u. Li, co O~ z been made to allow Level 1 in lieu of the previously required Level 3. 23. We are unaware that any property included in the proposed short plat is covered by the latecomer's agreement for Embassy Suites. 24. A loop has been provided which ties into the Bow Lake pipeline, 1000 feet south of Longacres Way. However, it has been dead -ended at Strander, 700 feet further south, to be completed when the Strander improvements are done. 25. The sanitary sewer lines have been extended to the site and connected to previously installed sanitary sewer lines. Please refer to site plan PC -15. 26. The lot north of Longacres Way is private property. It is up to the property owner to regulate the use of that property. However, ST will work with the property owner to eliminate parking on his /her property if that lot owner so requests. 27. Overnight parking will likely be allowed (72 hour limit) which is a similar approach that Metro uses at its Park & Ride lots. This allows ST riders to leave a car at the site for traveling to their job after de- training. In discussions with Metro (Doug Johnson), we do not anticipate a problem with Sea -Tac customers and employees using our lot, as Metro does not have this problem at P &R lots of similar distance from Sea -Tac (see attached Email) . 28. There are several unresolved issues concerning improvements to Nelson Place that require further discussion. There is an existing curb and gutter next to the urban walkway on the east side of Nelson Lane which satisfies the pedestrian requirement. We believe that a curb on the west side would be restrictive for warehouse trucks and potentially hazardous for pedestrians. We suggest that a site visit with your engineering group and our civil designers would be best to establish the scope. 29. ST is currently in contact with UP and WSDOT to design the signal interconnect. We will contact the City when we have a proposal for design. 30. General access across the Bow Lake Pipeline is provided under document no. 9305182053 (attached). This document is unlimited in term and was granted to the McLeod interests for the benefit of the property described in the document. The property description includes all of the property included within the proposed short plat. The property acquired by Sound Transit benefits from this easement by operation of law. Circulation for lot 3 is provided for in easement document 9811051960 (attached), which provides access across lot 4 (Strander Blvd. extension) to the UP right of way and Strander Blvd. Lot 4 is subject to a 60' road reservation per recording numbers 9203161730 and 9404131437 (attached). Lot 4 further has an easement for ingress and egress across Lot 3 to 158th under document no. 9811051962 (attached). 31. This information should be reflected in the set of drawings that was given to you on 8/4/99. ST will have a contract with a private maintenance company for garbage pick -up. 32. Civil drawings showing utilities and fire hydrants have been provided. See 25. 33. This was transmitted to the City in August of 1999. 34. The site electrical plan (PE -02) shows where all lights will be. The light fixture schedule and photometrics will be supplied by the design team.

The Kent Des Moines P &R is about a 15 minute ride to the Airport by either Metro Route 194 or the new ST Express Route 574 and I'm not aware of any problems here. This P &R usually fills by 7:30AM, which may be different from the Tukwila Sounder Lot when it opens. Nor do we have a problem at the Burien P &R, which is only 10 minutes away from the Airport on Route 340. The Route 340's running time between the Sounder Lot and the Airport will be around 20 minutes and it goes past Southcenter and through McMicken Heights, so it's not an express trip - this could be a disincentive to potential airport riders. Metro doesn't allow long term parking at any of our P &R's, with the maximum limit being 72 hours. This information is posted at all Metro lots. Sound Transit probably would want to have a similar policy to limit the long term parkers. I'd say that the Tukwila Sounder lot is probably far enough away from the Airport so that over use /abuse by Airport patrons /employees shouldn't be a serious problem. Of more concern would probably be the ST LINK structured lot proposed for the S 200th ST Station. Thanks.

I'm trying to get an understanding of the potential seriousness of people using the Tukwila Sounder Park & Ride lot for a place to park, then ride Metro to Sea -Tac Airport. I see the potential for airline passengers as well as airport/airline employees doing this. What is Metro's experience at other P &R's in the area, and if there are problems, how does Metro deal with it? Simply put, should Sound Transit be worried about this potential?

Our response so far has been that we would consider this request but would need to know the specifics of the TOD, including timing, before recommending City COuncil approval as part of the UUP.

If sound transit does the improvements on longacres way and nelson place, does it get some break on the concurrence fees. Brian and I say no break, because longacres way and nelson place are not included in the concurrence fees. also, the City requires the improvement to longacres way and nelson place because of safety issues. the question Moira has is, was there some discussion between you, mr. mcfarland and mr. fisher that took place over a year ago, regarding concurrence fees. if so, what was the outcome? 2. Will the City allow sound transit to gravel the lot instead of pave it. I f the City allowed this, i recommend a time limit of 1 or 2 years and then require the paving. sound transit is talking to a developer about putting in a commercial building with parking for commuters, i believe on the top of the building, at the rail bed level. Brian and I don't like a gravel parking lot: 1. air pollution from dust, 2. the gravel would make the station look as though it is incomplete and unprofessionally designed and built, 3. country towns with small populations have gravel parking lots, cities do not. please consider the above and provide your response. thanks.

Pric , Director of Sounder Commuter Rail SUBJECT: Sounder Service Launch Update In late August, the Sound Transit Board discussed the start-up of regularly scheduled Sounder train service between Tacoma and Seattle. According to Sound Move, the ten year plan for regional transportation, commuter rail service along the corridor was proposed to begin operation within 2 -4 years of the vote. This timeline was based on using the existing Burlington Northern Santa Fe (BNSF) railroad right -of -way, phasing services, and making track and signal improvements to improve the capacity for both passenger and freight trains. However, several key realities are at work influencing Sounder service. A primary issue is that negotiations with Burlington Northern Santa Fe (BNSF) for the ability to operate on their tracks have been more complex and taken longer than anticipated. Until an operating and capital agreement with BNSF is approved, all dates for Sounder launch are simply projections. In addition, construction of track, signal and other key corridor improvements will only commence once the agreement is signed. These improvements are essential to allow Sounder service to run in a safe, reliable manner which does not impede freight and other passenger rail service. There are three approaches for service phases and timing: • begin limited Sounder service (1 round trip /day) approximately 4 months after signing the BNSF agreement and as soon as the first vehicles are ready; • begin scheduled service (3 round trips /day) approximately 12 months after signing the operating agreement (at which point, all stations between the Tacoma Dome and King Street Station would be functioning); and • wait longer to launch service in order to better use the benefits of track and signal improvements being completed over the next three years (as work progresses, BNSF would allow us to build up to full service of 9 round trips /day). There can be no decision on a start date until after the agreement with the BNSF has been signed by both parties. Public desires for train service as soon as possible will then be weighed with service quality (i.e., customer satisfaction with convenient schedules and reliable travel times). If you have questions regarding Sounder, please do not hesitate to contact Sounder staff, Val Batey, Commuter Rail Project Manager for the Auburn, Kent and Tukwila Stations at (206) 398 -5117 or John Hubbard, Commuter Rail Project Manager for the Sumner, Puyallup, and Tacoma Stations at (253) 581 -8137.

All stations except for the downtown Seattle and Georgetown stations will include park- and -ride facilities. 2.3 STATION TYPES AND PLATFORM CONFIGURATIONS The north terminal station at King Street in Seattle would consist of two side platforms (1,000 feet long and 15 feet wide) with canopies and pedestrian and bicycle access to the street above via stairs, escalators, and elevators. The south terminal station in Tacoma would, on an interim basis, be just west of the existing Amtrak station in Tacoma. This interim station would consist of a 1,000 -foot long platform with candpiest� .;Aipedestriarr'connection would be provided :to - =thetTacomaDome IntermocitlfadilitYloaated iminediately across Puyallup Avenuef.,betweenrEast "E'.'; and East "G" Streets: With extension of commuter rail service to Lakewood, the Tacoma station would be relocated to Freighthouse Square, one and one -half blocks south of the interim station: Environmental review of that extension will be conducted separately in the future. Generally, -all intermediate stations except Georgetown are assumed to be on -line with side platforms. ` This means that the commuter train would stop on the main track. Northbound trains would load and unload on the platform to the east, while south- bound trains would use the western platform. For the Georgetown station, a center platform is assumed; passengers would load and unload from trains on either side of the center platform. The platforms would be 1,000 feet long, 15 to 20 feet wide, and would extend eight inches above the top -of -rail. Each station would also be equipped with a platform designed to accommodate Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requirements. • Platform amenities- would' include' canopies' with =wind`an i'clunate''protection along the. entire•.length.of the platform;: as:well. as lighting Ibenchesrpublic telephones,. trash., receptaclirs; orrnatiori kiosks, nd:related s ignage.ancldiriCtionakaids:4are ,: ::vending ud collection. equipment~ as;:wetBpark =and nde: and bus,loading. and . . unloading; facilities- wouldalso, be.provided:., The stations analyzed in this environmental assessment represent a basic level of development, sufficient to allow station access with some amenities.

Moira ,Bradshaw Sound_Transit Public.V t{ng Page,1 From: Moira Bradshaw To: Steve Lancaster Date: 8/5/99 11:04AM Subject: Sound Transit Public Meeting We held the meeting last night between 5 and 7 and no one came. Val will send someone out to look at addresses and come back with new labels possibly. I will decide later if we need another meeting. It's not that surprising that no one showed up. ST didn't respond to any of our comments that we gave them at our staff meeting except on storm drainage. They say the property the City owns is in the flood plain and is unuseable for storm detention. They felt like they clarified some misunderstandings we had about their site - ie it's not in the floodplain and that we have the latitude to consider creative solutions like we did on the community center - which KPFF designed. PW is going to think about it and meet with them next Thursday morning. I will be out of the office then. So we'll see how that goes. I am continuing to pursue an answer on condemnation and short platting. Bonnie Clark at King County Assessor's office is supposed to get back to me on Monday with an RCW or county ordinance. City of Tukwila John W. Rants, Mayor Department of Community Development Steve Lancaster, Director August 4, 1999 Val Batey C/o Sound Transit 1100 Second Av. Suite 500 Seattle, WA 98101 HAND DELIVERED Subject: P98 -0068 Sounder Tukwila Station Issues L99 -0041 Short Plat L99 -0042 Unclassified Use L99 -0043 Design Review The following are issues that have arisen from a substantive review of your applications. In order to continue our review of your application, we request that you provide the additional information or analysis required. Per City ordinance, TMC 18.104.130, Time periods for permit issuance, the 120 day time period for permit review excludes the time needed for you to respond to this request for additional information. Short Plat General 1. Why doesn't short plat show these proposed "future easements ?" City does not agree with language in these easements. Should they be rescinded or modified? 2. Modify the plat sheets to show format as provided in attachment. Access /Circulation City of Tukwila and City of Renton plan to extend Strander Bl. across subject site and create a Minor Arterial. Longacres Way. will not be a through street into Renton. Public street will stop at or east margin of Union Pacific right -of -way. S. 156 St. may be extended east of Nelson Place into City of Renton and connected with Oakesdale as a commercial collector arterial for either general access or HOV traffic. Access from Lots 1 and 2 of Tukwila short Plat 98 -0007 will be allowed. Longacres Way 3. "Future Easement" indicates Sound Transit will make access improvements from east margin of Puget Power right of way into subject site across Lot 2. Note 12, Sheet 2 of 6300 Southcenter Boulevard, Suite #100 • Tukwila, Washington 98188 • (206) 431-3670 • Fax (206) 431-3665 3, says no documents exist to show access through UP at Longacres Way Provide documentation for access prior to approval of short plat. 4. Currently "access road" from east end of Longacres Way row is a 38 foot wide portion of future Lot 2. (Looks like its approximately 16 feet either side of centerline of S. 158 if extended.) Which leads to a 35 foot access easement across proposed Lots 1 and 2 to the west margin of BN right of way, which is evenly divided between future Lots 1 and 2. The portion of proposed Lot 2 between the east margin of Puget Power and the UP row should be street right of way dedicated to City. This additional street length would extend the Longacres Way right of way east to east GUC 0- margin of UP row. City standard for a commercial local access is 60 foot right of way and 36 foot pavement. Longacres Way width varies from 56.5 to 38 feet. 5. ST Commuter Rail EIS discusses need to improve access to park and ride lot. Specifically, "Longacres Way is currently in poor condition and would need to be reconstructed and channelized to support project related traffic." Conditions vary along the length of Longacres Way to the site. ST is asked to provide cross section improvements per City standards from W. Valley Hy. to east margin of UP right of way. Fire Department needs 14 foot six inch clearance under UP rail. Underpass is currently signed at 9 feet six inches. 6. Develop language and improvements that ensure that access and design of Longacres Way provides access to Lots 1 and 2 of Tukwila Shortplat L98 -0007. 7. Need a copy of settlement Agreement between Boeing and McLeod. 8. Need a copy of 22 foot access and utility easement over proposed Lot 1 recording # 9609130558. (Access under BN's tracks between Boeing and McLeod was closed on July 6, 1999 by BN.) Strander BL 9. According to your submittal, McLeod will make Stander Bl. Improvements. (Future Easement for access, roadway and utilities — Strander Bl. — Recording # 9811051960) Where is agreement between McLeod and UP? Verify UP agreement will allow access for proposed Lot 3 and length of agreement, etc. 10. A property owners agreement that would be recorded prior to approval of short plat from McLeod and Sound Transit will be required. It shall specify, among other possible items, the following: • Maintenance of price per square foot ($1.82) that was established at time of rezone /comp plan change for McLeod for right -of -way acquisition. • Temporary nature of proposed at -grade crossing • No protest for future LID improvements for Strander B1.

O - . 1.••• ` w w, z O~ z • Recognition that access will be modified at time of future street improvement. • Minimum width and nonspecific location of future right of way. 11. Provide agreement recorded under "9203161730" describing road reservation for Strander Bl. S. 156 St. 12. Future Reciprocal Easements for access, roadways and utilities (24 foot easements connection between S. 158 and S. 156 if extended) recorded under 9811051962 Proposed locations for the two 24 foot access easement are adjacent to R.R. embankments. Won't this location interfere with drainage easement? 13. City does not agree with the time frame running to 2005 for S. 156 street to be installed. This easement should be perpetual and run with the land. 14. "Future Easement" should provide access for Lots 1 and 2 of short plat 98 -0007. Access language for Lot 1 across Lot 2 specifies a "non — location specific easement across lot 2 and to access and fully utilize lot 1 as if lot 1 had full access to a public right of way. This easement shall be relinquished upon the dedication and construction of a public right of way serving lot 1." 15. How does Puget Power legally access their sub station,Tax parcel 36, on future Lot 3? Storm Water 16. Do drainage calculations for Station take into account the impervious surfaces of Access improvements in Strander and Longacres Way? 17. Identify Renton boundary along east side of BN row. 18. Not sure boundary between Lots 3 and 4 is appropriate given potential size and location of Strander over /underpass? Will get back to you on this. 19. Modify Sheets to add itemized list of previous recorded documents. List attached. Unclassified Use /Design Review Storm Water 20. Surface water systems need to be designed per the 1998 King County Surface Water Design Manual and current published FEMA 100 year Flood. Water quality and quantity controls will be needed. If any other standard is desired, the standard would need to be adopted and Sound Transit is responsible for initiating and justifying the new standard. 21. The City would be willing to offer, for compensation, the parcel to the north adjacent to 405 for regional storm water detention.

Compliance with City of Tukwila flood ordinance is required. No fill in flood plain without compensatory storage. Use Nelson Place/McLeod/Boeing CSTC storm drainage study as a design reference. Infrastructure finish floor elevations need to be at least 1 foot above FEMA flood level. 23. Payment of latecomer fee to Embassy Suites for installed culvert upgrade Water and Sewer 24. Extend water service to the site. A water loop is required — extend from W. Valley Hy /Strander east then north then west to connect to Longacres Way 25. Extend sanitary sewer service to the site. Sanitary sewer will be a private system within ST property boundary. (I.e. From east edge of Puget Power r -o -w.) Transportation 26. How will informal parking on lot to north of Longacres Way be controlled? 27. How is overnight parking controlled for example Sea -Tac passengers using the parking lot and then using the Metro 340? 28. Curb, gutter sidewalks, drainage, and illumination are required on Nelson Place, from S 156 St. to Longacres Way, on Longacres Way and on Strander Boulevard. City Engineer disagrees with Heffron Letter dated May 17, 1999, which says a small fraction (1 %) of outbound traffic may use Nelson Place to avoid West Valley /Longacres Way intersection. 29. Design and install traffic signal interconnects between the signalized intersection of West Valley HY and Strander Bl. and the UP signalized at grade crossing. 30. Bow Lake pipeline agreement providing access between Lots 3 and 4 is for pedestrian access and landscaping has a life of 40 years and is to McLeod and Helen Nelson. How will this be transferred? Please address long term circulation between proposed Lots 3 and 4. 31. A number of items on the site plan are not called out and it is unclear what they are. See attached highlighted site plans. The City needs to see any dumpster or trash collection called out and supported with elevations. 32. The site plan has some utility information but it does not appear to be complete. Are there civil drawings that show all existing and proposed utilities including the nearest fire hydrant? 33. Materials to be used need to be noted on elevations. 34. Provide Luminare Elevations and photometrics. Page 4 of 5 8/4/99 z ;mow; 6 D. JU U O; Lai wi NO w gJ: F- w. I- O': z 0 -: o I- ;w w; ui z O ~` z 35. Provide signage per the City's sign code. 36.

We started with the two existing parcels that were purchased from McLeod and searched records within 1/4 mile of those two parcels. We made labels for both the list of property owners and the list of what Metro Scan calls the "site address" which should be the occupant. Some of the surrounding businesses do not have their names listed anywhere in the Metro Scan record, but we do have the addresses. As you can see from the record 1 pulled up for Taco Bell.

This cleared up quite a few earlier questions, but the following issues are still outstanding: 1 Supplemental No. 2 of Second Report adds exceptions 20 and 21 (copy enclosed). Exception 20 is a request for an ALTA survey and review of the survey and our physical inspection. We have not yet received the ALTA survey and were holding our inspection for same. Exception 21 are matters disclosed on the lease and would presumably be acceptable to show on policy. It is not clear whether these exceptions are considered as approved to show on your policy. Can you please advise and amend your instructions? 2. Supplemental No. 3 of Second Report adds exception 22 (mislabeled as 21)(copy enclosed). Exception 22 adds Year 2000 Operating Property Taxes. It is unclear whether this exception is considered as approved to show on policy. If this is acceptable to show on your policy, can you please amend your instructions? 3. In paragraph C.1. of your letter you request that we delete General Exceptions B & C based on an ALTA survey which was provided. I have double checked our file and the record and could not find a survey of this property. Could you send us a copy of the survey for this site so we can review this request? Please let me know if a survey is not available yet and you want to close with the survey to follow later and I can draft some additional language to provide for that. z w 0; • U O: •w =; w 0` =: is I-0' .z I: moo: 'U :0 ;o f-: • w w: ,FU O ..z V N; .O z. 4. In paragraph C.3. you state that we are to pay title premiums and recording fees out of funds provided by Lessee. We don't currently have an escrow opened on this file so we cannot handle funds and would typically just bill you direct after closing for premiums and recording fees. The title premium for this Extended Coverage Policy in the amount of $295,164.00 is $1,268.00 and $109.05 tax. Can you please change your instructions or let me know if you would like it handled differently. 5. We can delete special exceptions 5 and 6 per your request, but the terms of the lease language shown in exception 5 will be an exception on policy. I appreciate any comments you have on any of the above. Please let me know how you would like to proceed on the survey and extended coverage issues so we can work out any additional or amended instructions. Thank you for your time and consideration.

This was the sixth semi- annual report submitted by the panel since its creation in 1997. The panel's purpose is to monitor the agency's performance in meeting its public commitments in Sound Move —the 10 -year transit plan approved by voters in 1996. The 15- member panel includes citizens from around the region who have experience and /or expertise in various fields related to Sound Transit's mission. Panel Chair, Reid Shockey of Snohomish County, highlighted some of the panel's conclusions about the agency's 1999 performance and stated: "Our message to you today is that this phase of the program is on track toward successful completion in 2006. In our report we do express concerns over the schedule for Sounder Commuter Rail. We also caution that meeting budget targets will require a sharp pencil and significant efforts at the state and federal levels. We are satisfied that there is agreement on what these issues entail and that strategies are being crafted to deal with them." In its report, the panel highlights three specific areas of success: • The early roll out of nine new ST Express bus routes serving communities in Snohomish, King and Pierce counties. • The board's unanimous decision on a preferred central Link line in November. • Approval of the final environmental impact statement on the Sounder Everett -to- Seattle line, with designs allowing for minimal incursion into sensitive shoreline and wetland areas. The panel's report also calls out three areas of concern: • The delay in the start -up of Sounder commuter rail service, which the panel acknowledges is attributable to reasons largely beyond the direct control of the agency. • The financial pressures on the Sound Transit budget as the board attempts to respond to community desires. • Continued mixed reviews about the effectiveness of the agency's community outreach efforts. The panel commented that boardmember attendance at board meetings has improved significantly since the previous report, ensuring timely decisions and progress. The panel raised concerns over the process used to select new boardmembers. In the last round of appointments, there appeared to be a failure to develop and agree upon criteria and qualifications for candidates. To obtain a copy of the panel's report, please call Kaye Munson at (206) 398 -5322. Other actions at the March 23 board meeting: Re- appointments to the Citizen Oversight Panel The board re- appointed seven members of the Citizen Oversight Panel to a final three - year term ending March 2003 —Art Carter, Allan Darr, Bertha Eades, Virginia Gunby, Tony Hudson, Tom Luthy and Larry Shannon. The other panel members are Reid Shockey (chair), Diane Carlson (vice chair), Steve Goldblatt, Fred Hart, Tony Hudson, Kristi A. Mandt, David Osaki and Al Stipe.

Service will be largely on existing tracks, with improvements along the w. BNSF main line (including new additional track) as required to allow.increased.p.assenger train z !—. speeds and to minimize conflicts with existing train traffic. The project includes specific z 0 mitigation commitments, which are described in more detail below. uw w. Access to the service will be provided from stations located within the cities of Seattle, Tukwila, 0 N: Kent, Auburn, Sumner, Puyallup and Tacoma. Commuter trains will run in each direction along ~ the 40 -mile corridor at approximately one =half hour intervals during peak commute hours. A x 0 total of 9 morning and 9 evening trips is planned. All stations except for those in downtown 0 Seattle and Georgetown (provisional) will include park- and -ride facilities. In addition, w Z. pedestrian and bicycle access to all stations will be encouraged and enhanced by station design v and station area improvements. Buses will provide access to all stations. Some stations will also 0 �` be served by the regional express bus system. Station sites analyzed as part of this project represent a basic level of development, including parking, drop off areas, and station platforms. Design and construction of station sites will occur in accordance with a community -based design process. This process will include selection of a design team for each station jointly by the local .. jurisdiction and Sound Transit, and design development by the selected team in consultation with the local jurisdiction's staff, a community -based advisory comrnittee,.and Sound Transit. Construction of the Tacoma -to- Seattle stations and track improvements is projected to start in late 1998. Operation is expected to begin in late 1999. Other components of the Sound Transit program, including extensions of commuter rail service, light rail transit, and regional express bus service, will be coordinated and integrated with the Tacoma -to- Seattle commuter rail project, and will be subject to separate environmental review. A plan -level environmental impact statement was prepared for the RegionaLTransit System Plan in early 1993 (Regional Transit System Plan EIS), which included the current proposal. Project - level environmental review for the proposal began in December 1993 when a SEPA determination of significance (DS) was issued. Scoping meetings were held in each of the communities served by the commuter rail line in early 1994, and a combined preliminary National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) environmental assessment (EA) and State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA) supplemental EIS was prepared. The document was circulated to local jurisdictions for their review and comment. When the first vote on financing - -for the Regional-Transit-System-Plan-failed in.March 1995, work on the environmental review was suspended. Sound Transit reactivated the environmental review for the project in the fall of 1997, following voter approval of financing for the plan in November 1996. The current review of the proposal updates the environmental work begun in 1993 to reflect new project design decisions, changes in adopted plans and regulations of the affected municipalities, updated traffic forecasts, and other factors, including express mitigation commitments made by Sound Transit. As part of this review, the DS issued in 1993 is being withdrawn (pursuant to WAC 197 -11- 360(4)) and the form of SEPA documentation is being changed. There are several reasons for this. First, the prior analysis revealed no probable significant adverse environmental impacts, the threshold for preparing an EIS. Second, community acceptance (based upon public input) was high and public controversy about the project's environmental issues was low.. Third, the Union Pacific (UP) track alternative was eliminated from consideration. Without the UP track alternative, and given the lack of significant impacts, the need for an EIS evaluating alternatives was absent. Finally, Sound Transit has entered a set of mitigation commitments that assure that the project will not have any significant adverse environmental impacts. These mitigation commitments are set out in Attachment A and are incorporated herein by reference. These commitments will be fully integrated into the project. A draft EA was issued in December 1997 for public and agency comment. The EA was revised in response to these comments. The completed EA was submitted to the Federal Transit Administration (FTA), the lead agency for NEPA compliance, on April 6, 1998. Accompanying the submittal of the EA was Sound Transit's mitigation commitments and a request for a Finding of No Significant Impact (FONSI). FTA submitted additional comments, which were addressed in a final EA prepared in June 1998. This adoption notice satisfies the SEPA requirements for adcption contained in WAC 197 -11 -610 (2) and the Department of Ecology's SEPA Handbook:, Proponent: Central Puget Sound Regional Transit Authority (Sound Transit) Location of current proposal: The project will be located between downtown Tacoma and Seattle generally on existing Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railway right -of -way. The northern terminus of the line will be at King Street Station in downtown Seattle and the southern terminus will be just west of the existing Tacoma Amtrak station.

This mitigation program derives from the.environmental analysis contained in the NEPA Environmental Assessment (EA).and related documentation developed for the project. The elements of the mitigation program track the order of the elements of the environment set out in the NEPA EA. This mitigation program contains Sound Transit's most current commitments regarding mitigation. To the extent that this material differs from the potential mitigation measures described in provisions of the EA or elsewhere, this program supersedes those provisions. It may be further updated by the Sound Transit Board, and it may be subject to further refinement as part of the permitting process. Unless otherwise noted, the elements of this program apply to all commuter rail stations and track improvements proposed in the Tacoma -to- Seattle project. 1. LAND USE 1.1 Land Use impacts will be controlled and mitigated by local jurisdictions through their comprehensive planning, zoning and other implementation ordinances and development regulation process. 2. SOCIOECONOMICS 2.1 Business and residential displacements would occur as a result of the purchase of land by Sound Transit. To mitigate the impacts of displacement, Sound Transit will follow federal and state relocation requirements, as applicable. These include the federal Uniform Relocation Assistance and Real Property Acquisition Policy Acts and similar Washington state laws. 2.2 Sound Transit will develop and follow its own relocation assistance procedures for affected landowners. 2.3 In the event of acquisition of all or part of a parcel of property, appropriate compensation will be paid, consistent with applicable laws and procedures. A -1 z w J U 0; W J H, w0 -d w z� 0. al La o F-: w z 3. TRANSPORTATION 3.1 During construction, Sound Transit will provide any necessary detour route signing, flaggers, alternate routes, and other safety actions. For at -grade crossings at major arterials, hours of construction may be limited to non -peak hours to provide full access during peak traffic hours. 3.2 During operation of stations that accommodate park - and -ride trips, Sound Transit will mitigate traffic impacts at intersections that are projected to be operating at-LOS F as a result of the proposed commuter rail project, or otherwise in compliance with local jurisdictions' Traffic Concurrency Standards.-Specifically, Sound Transit will provide the mitigation measures set out in Mitigation Program Table 1 below.

NOISE AND VIBRATION 4.1 During construction, Sound Transit will impose reasonable and appropriate restrictions on the construction activity, including time -of -day restriction on construction activities near sensitive land uses and enforcement of industry noise standards for construction equipment. 4.2 ` To minimize -vibration during rail operation, Sound Transit will develop and implement a maintenance program, which may include rail grinding, wheel truing, wheel flat detector systems, and vehicle reconditioning programs. In addition, Sound Transit will plan and design crossovers and other special track work to avoid sensitive land uses and will develop vehicle specifications that limit the vertical resonance frequency of the primary suspension. 5. HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 5.1 Sound Transit will perform.an Environmental Site Assessment (ESA or environmental audit) for all property acquisitions. If a project site is contaminated, Sound Transit will either select an alternative site or undertake remedial actions appropriate for the site, such as removal of contaminated material, on -site treatment, or other remedy. 5.2 Sound Transit will monitor work Sites that are identified as potentially having hazardous materials. Depending on the specific hazardous materials suspected at a given site, Sound Transit will conduct appropriate health and safety monitoring, testing and other protections to ensure a safe working environment for construction workers. 6. WETLAND RESOURCES/ECOLOGY In the rail corridor, the new third track segment will be designed to avoid or minimize wetland impacts. In the event that such impacts cannot be avoided, Sound Transit will work closely with the Washington State Department of Ecology (Ecology), the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW), the local jurisdiction(s), affected tribes and the Corps of Engineers through the § 404 permit process to formulate and implement an appropriate wetland mitigation plan, including identifying appropriate locations for wetland creation and/or enhancement to mitigate wetland losses. General Statement of Commitments • Sound Transit commits to providing restoration, compensation, or enhancement when any wetland is permanently altered as a result of the Project. Sound Transit will ensure that the Project is designed to employ all practicable methods to minimize harm to wetlands. • Sound Transit will commit to principles of impact assessment and a formula for mitigation replacement for those impacts, if any, that are not identified until construction A -3 or operation, or that result from impacts that unavoidable or not susceptible to restoration by other action. The principles of impact assessment that shall be applied to all unanticipated impacts are, in descending order of importance, avoidance, minimization, restoration, rehabilitation, and compensation. Wetland Mitigation Plan Development ? z re w • Sound Transit will consult with Ecology, WDFW, the local jurisdiction(s), affected tribes 6 v and the Corps during the development and review of the wetland mitigation plan. v , cow; w =; • Sound Transit will replace or enhance the function and value of any affected wetland -' 1— based upon an approved evaluation procedure such as Wetland Evaluation Technique ; w 0 (WET) or Habitat Evaluation Procedure (HEP).

A-4 Additional mitigation measures may be added after consultation with Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife, and Tribal Fisheries. 7. HISTORIC RESOURCES 7.1 Sound Transit will avoid/mitigate any impacts to historic resources by developing station • •designs•that are compatible with the site of historic structures. For those station sites with historic resources, Sound Transit has developed a Memorandum of Agreement with the State Historic Preservation Office to provide specifically for compatible station design and protection of historic resources. 8. ARCHEOLOGICAL AND CULTURAL RESOURCES 8.1 For all station sites, Sound Transit will arrange for a professional archeologist to monitor subsurface excavations expected to penetrate fill to native soils. 9. VISUAL QUALITY 9.1 Sound Transit will use a community -based design process and establish Technical Advisory Committees for each station to create designs that consider local context and aesthetic preferences. 9.2 In developing station sites, Sound Transit will preserve existing vegetation to the maximum extent practicable, consistent with site development. Sound Transit will use landscape screening where appropriate and in accordance with local codes and ordinances. 10. SAFETY AND SECURITY 10.1 At selected public grade crossings identified in the EA, Sound Transit will employ mitigation measures including flashers, bells and gates. 10.2 For pedestrian grade crossings, Sound Transit will provide gate and signal protection as required by applicable safety requirements. 10.3 Sound Transit will participate in public information and education programs to promote awareness of railroad grade crossing risks and regulations. 10.4 Constant Warning Time (CWT) signaling and Automated Horn System warning devices will be employed at grade crossings as identified in the EA. A -5 • 11. WATER QUALITY/HYDROLOGY Sound Transit will comply with applicable laws and regulations for design of stormwater collection, treatment and discharge to avoid or minimize sediment and erosion impacts. Depending on Local conditions and requirements, specific steps may include covering stockpiled soils, use of sediment traps and ponds, locating construction on areas with existing impermeable surfaces, minimizing new construction, and revegetating cleared areas as soon as practicable. 11.2 Sound Transit will minimize on -site refueling and chemical storage areas. Water drainage will be directed away from any on -site refueling or chemical storage areas. 11.3 For site development located in a floodplain, Sound Transit will design.and size culverts and crossings consistent with applicable requirements. 12. EARTH 12.1 Sound Transit will use best management practices, consistent with applicable laws and regulations, to avoid or mitigate any erosion impacts. 12.2 Sound Transit will reestablish vegetation in non -paved cleared areas as soon as practicable consistent with site development and will apply appropriate ground cover to minimize erosion. 13. OTHER 13.1 ENERGY - All proposed facilities will be designed to minimize the use of electricity and fuels.

On a separate sheet, describe the manner in which you believe that your request for an unclassified use permit will satisfy each of the following criteria as specified in TMC 18.66.060. 1. Where appropriate and feasible, all facilities shall be underground. The proposed temporary commuter rail station cannot be placed underground as the platforms must be 8" above the existing track rail. 2. The proposed use will not be materially detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to the property or improvements in the vicinity. The proposed development has been designed to be compatible with current and planned uses in the vicinity. The station will be located along existing railroad track, and will offer both northbound and southbound commuter service in the morning and evening hours. Alternative locations for the commuter rail station, including the initially proposed S.W. 43rd Street/S. 180th Street station, were discussed with Tukwila staff, which recommended the currently proposed location. The site is cleared and vacant, and its use as a commuter rail station, with associated park -and- ride lot and transit center, will not displace current or planned uses. Amtrak has indicated its intention to use this station for its service as well; the proposal is consistent with that plan. Finally, the station will serve as a destination as well as the start of commuter trips, located as it is in close proximity to the Boeing Longacres employment center. The environmental impacts of the proposed use were addressed in Sound Transit Tacoma -to - Seattle Commuter Rail Environmental Assessment (Federal Transit Administration and Sound Transit, June 1998). The analysis and conclusions included in the Environmental Assessment are summarized below. Socioeconomic. The commuter rail would operate on existing tracks. No existing uses would be displaced by the proposal. The proposed action would not involve significant adverse impacts on populations protected by Executive Order 12898, Federal Actions to Address Environmental Justice in Minority Populations and Low - Income Populations. Based on the socioeconomic analysis, the proposed commuter rail station has the potential to provide mobility benefits to transit - dependent populations, while reducing household costs. Transportation. Traffic increases associated with commuter travel to the station would be limited to morning and evening commute hours. West Valley Highway, located west of the proposed station site, is a principal north -south arterial connecting directly to I -405. Vehicles would enter the station primarily via South Longacres Way. Operation of the station would not cause levels of service to change from projected future baseline conditions; intersection -by- intersection analysis results are summarized below and discussed in more detail in the Environmental Assessment (EA). z' 2, J 0• U O; CO 0 U)w J I • LL w0 LL Q: • a. = w. z� O. z I- CU uy ,O D. .o w W. - U LL - O: w z. O~ z The intersections of Longacres Way/West Valley Highway, Stander Boulevard/West Valley Highway and Lind Avenue /SW 16'h Street are expected to operate at acceptable LOS D or better during the 1997, 2010 baseline, and 2010 proposed action p.m. peak hour traffic conditions. The intersection of Fort Dent Road/West Valley Highway is operating at LOS E under existing conditions and would continue to operate at this level under the proposed action. The intersections of Grady Way/West Valley Highway and South 180th Street/West Valley highway are operating at LOS F under existing conditions and would continue to operate at this level under the proposed action. The intersection of Lind Avenue /Grady Way is operating at LOS D under existing conditions, and is expected to fall to LOS E both under the 2010 future baseline and proposed action. The intersections of Oaksdale Avenue /SW 16'h Street and Oaksdale Avenue /Grady Way currently operate at LOS B and LOS C, respectively. The 2010 baseline and proposed action levels of service are projected to fall to LOS E for the Oaksdale /SW 16'h Street intersection and LOS F for the Oaksdale /Grady intersection. Longacres Way is currently in poor condition but is in sufficient condition for this temporary station. The roadway will need to be improved when the permanent station is constructed. This reconstruction would benefit the surrounding property owners. Noise. The proposed commuter rail station is not expected to cause noise or vibration annoyance. Potential sources of noise and ground -borne vibration would include idling locomotives, feeder bus traffic and increased automobile traffic on adjacent roadways. Measures will be taken to control vibration along the commuter rail route, which will operate at first between Tacoma and Seattle; these include rail grinding, wheel truing, wheel flat detector systems, and vehicle reconditioning programs. Hazardous Materials. No contaminated sites included on the Washington State LUST, UST, and CSCS lists, or in the federal EPA databases occur on the proposed site, and the operation of the station will not increase the risk of contamination. Biological Resources. The proposed station site has been cleared and graded in the fairly recent past, and is currently vacant. No significant biological resources will be affected by the construction and operation of the station. Historical, Park and Recreation Resources. No properties listed under or eligible for listing under the National Register of Historic Properties and the Washington Heritage Register are located on or in the vicinity of the proposed station. No parks or recreation facilities would be directly displaced by the proposed use, and no significant impacts to park and recreation resources located in the vicinity of the station site are anticipated. Cultural Resources. No potentially significant cultural resources were identified during field reconnaissance and no archaeological sites are recorded in the project area. If archaeological material is encountered during the proposed project construction, work should be halted and the Office of Archaeological and Historic Preservation are to be consulted to determine appropriate follow -up. .z 1Z av w JU.

The station platforms would add some visual diversity but would have little effect on the visual resources of the area. The station is expected to improve the appearance of the site by replacing unkempt open areas. Safety and Security. The proposed station has been designed to promote safety and security. Potential commuter rail safety and security issues include safe operational interface between all transportation modes, as well as passenger safety and security aboard buses and trains, at transit stations, and in adjacent areas. Pedestrians would use an existing undercrossing, thus avoiding the need to cross the tracks at grade. Passenger security both off and on the train has been incorporated into the proposed project. The design allows for ease of surveillance for police patrol cars. The shelters will be well lighted, well maintained, and patrolled by local police and transit security force. Air Quality. The air quality impacts of the proposed use were evaluated as part of the planning process, in close cooperation with the Puget Sound Air Pollution Control Agency (PSAPCA). The evaluation of air quality impacts indicated that corridor level emissions of carbon monoxide and particulate matter would be reduced under the proposed action relative to the 2010 baseline condition. Emissions of hydrocarbons and oxides of nitrogen would be slightly higher, due to the addition of commuter rail locomotives. Water Quality. The nominal impacts to water quality at the proposed site are primarily related to associated erosion and contaminant transport during construction. Earth. The proposed project will involve nominal earthwork (i.e. grading) for construction. Re- establishment of vegetation in non -paved cleared areas, as soon as possible and application of appropriate ground cover, would be used to minimize the potential for erosion hazards during operation. 3. The proposed use shall meet or exceed the same standards for parking, landscaping, yards and other development regulations that are required in the district it will occupy. Site development would be consistent with applicable Tukwila zoning requirements. The site is zoned Tukwila Urban Center (TUC, Chapter 18.28 of the Tukwila Municipal Code). The basic development standards (height, yard dimensions, landscaping guidelines, parking, and performance standards in TMC 18.28.080) will be met. The proposed station is consistent with the general purpose of the TUC district ( "It is intended to provide an area of high intensity regional uses that include commercial services, offices, light industry, warehousing, and retail uses. Development is intended to be pedestrian- friendly, with a strong emphasis on a safe and attractive streetscape." TMC 18.28.010). The proposed use is generally less intensive and more compatible with nearby uses than most of the other uses identified as unclassified used in the TUC district; these, as listed in TMC 18.28.050, include airports, conversions of rental multi - family structures to condominiums, correctional institutions, essential public facilities, landfills, and transit centers. re W 6 U: UO co COW . J = U) u. W O. cod F. ill _. Z E-0. Z uj CI I- W U im. W z U co O z 4. The proposed development shall be compatible generally with the surrounding land uses. The site is located immediately south of I -405 in the City of Tukwila, within the BNSF railroad track ROW. The City of Renton and the Boeing Longacres facility, where parking for the temporary station will be provided, lie immediately to the east. Other land uses in the vicinity include a large parking area to the east, light industrial buildings, a recreational bike trial, and an existing office building. Much of the area surrounding the proposed station site is experiencing rapid development, and the conversion of undeveloped properties to commercial and /or office related uses is likely to continue. Retail development and other businesses or industries are likely to locate near the proposed station. 5. The proposed development shall to the maximum extent feasible be consistent with and promote the goals, objectives, and policies of the Comprehensive Land Use Policy Plan and applicable adopted area plans. The site is designated as Urban Center in the City of Tukwila's Comprehensive Plan. The Comprehensive Plan describes the City's intent to support a high - density, regionally oriented, mixed use center in Tukwila. The Comprehensive Plan generally supports commuter rail in the Tukwila Urban Center to "help ensure Tukwila's long -term economic viability and competitiveness in the region." The Plan's Urban Center Goal 10.3, Transportation and Circulation, expresses the City's intent to "work with transit providers to develop and fund regional park- and -ride and rail locations where traffic and visual impacts on the Tukwila Urban Center are minimized through site design and management" (Goal 10.3.1). Similarly, Goal 10.3.3, Transit Service and Facilities, supports promoting "the development and enhancement of transit service and facilities." The proposed commuter rail station is consistent with these goals. While the existing rail lines fix the location of the station at the east edge of the Urban Center, its presence will help the Urban Center maintain a regional orientation and provide transportation infrastructure for continued growth. Its visual impacts are minimal, and traffic impacts result in no changes to levels of service compared to baseline conditions. 6. The proposed unclassified use shall, to the maximum extent feasible, mitigate all significant adverse environmental impacts on public and private properties. Full consideration shall be given to: a. alternative locations and /or routes that reduce or eliminate adverse impacts; and b. alternative designs that reduce or eliminate adverse impacts. See Response 1, above. The station has been designed to minimize adverse impacts to the site and surrounding area. 7. In the event that a proposed essential public facility of a countywide or statewide nature creates an unavoidable significant adverse environmental or economic impact on the community, compensatory mitigation shall be required. Compensatory mitigation shall include public amenities, incentives or other public benefits which offset otherwise unmitigated adverse impacts of the essential public facility. Where appropriate, compensatory mitigation shall be provided as a close to the affected area as possible. Not applicable as the commuter rail station is neither a countywide nor statewide facility nor is it essential except as desired by the community. 8. For uses in residential areas, applicants shall demonstrate that there is no reasonable nonresidential alternative site for the use. Not applicable as there is no residential area near nor adjacent to the site. 9. For uses in residential areas, applicants shall demonstrate that the use provides some tangible benefit for the neighborhood. Not applicable as there is no residential area near nor adjacent to the site. z • R UO"• NOS.

The supporting park and ride lot, passenger load zone, and bus stops are east of the platforms on the Boeing Longacres site, which is in the City of Renton. The proposed commuter rail station consists primarily of two passenger platforms 600 feet in length adjacent to the existing Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railway tracks with one wheelchair - accessible platform at the northern end of each platform. The platforms will be constructed adjacent to the tracks at the top of the existing embankment, which is approximately 15 feet above the ground level in this location. The platforms will have canopy shelters for commuter rail passengers. Ticket vending machines and other passenger information will be located at the Northwest corner of the parking area. Benches and trash receptacles will be provided on the platforms as well. Pedestrian connection from one side of the tracks to the other can be made by way of the underpass at the railroad bridges that crosses Longacres Way (South 158th Street). Stairs and ramps will connect the platform level to the ground level parking lot, bus transit area and pedestrian ways. At the north end of the site on Longacres Way, a bus transit stop will be provided. A passenger drop -off (kiss and ride) area will be provided north of the parking area. A total of 238 parking stalls will be provided on site. DESIGN REVIEW GUIDELINES from Zoning Code 1. RELATIONSHIP OF STRUCTURE TO THE SITE a. The site is planned to provide visual access to the commuter rail platforms from the street. The design of the vehicular and pedestrian circulation will indicate the entry to the site. The site is designed with the purposed of safely and conveniently connecting all potential modes of transportation at the commuter rail station. b. The parking area will be screened from the public streets by the railroad embankment. c. No buildings are included in the project. 2. RELATIIONSHIP OF THE STRUCTURE AND SITE TO ADJOINING AREA a. The site is isolated from surrounding areas by the high embankments to the west upon which the railroad tracks are located. The sites immediately to the north, south, and east are not as yet developed. b. The embankment upon which the BNSF tracks sit will be cleared and grubbed with a hydroseed treatment on boththe west and east faces. c. The existing immediate neighborhood character is undeveloped open fields. The greater neighborhood is primarily warehouse /manufacturing. The proposed platform structures and shelters are temporary in nature (three years maximum) and therefore will carry no architectural character. The permanent station will reflect the future changes anticipated in the area. d. The vehicular and pedestrian patterns are designed to provide safe, convenient connections among all modes of transportation using the site: pedestrian, bicycles and other non - motorized modes, passenger vehicles, buses and trains. e. The site is designed to provide one major public entrance for cars and buses from Longacres Way. The secondary access /egress to the site will be from the northeast z <Z g 6 0 0; CO 0' CO w, J w p; w j ▪ 3 I- w. F- O. Z w uj U 0_ 10 u 0 = cy iu z. CO Z r't through the Boeing Longacres site. This access will only be available to vehicular traffic during Sounder operations (peak am and pm hours). Access for pedestrians and bicycles will be at all times. 3. LANDSCAPE AND SITE TREATMENT a. The portions of the site that are in the City of Tukwila is on the BNSF railroad embankment which rises to height of about 15 feet or more above the site to the west. The embankment of the BNSF railroad alignment will be cleared and grubbed with hydroseeding to prevent erosion. b. The paved areas are all designed to provide safe and convenient access to all public areas of the site. c. As the site is temporary in nature, no landscaping will be provided. d. N/A e. N/A f. N/A g. N/A h. Exterior lighting for safety is provided on the platforms, in the underpass beneath the railroad bridge, along the internal vehicular and pedestrian circulation ways and throughout the parking areas. 4. BUILDING DESIGN N/A — There are no buildings proposed as part of the commuter rail station development except for a small 4'x12' ticket vending machine enclosure which will be placed at the base of the slope on the east side within the City of Renton. 5. MISCELLANEOUS a. The "miscellaneous structures" the canopy shelters are designed to be translucent. Their scale will be compatible with the scale of the site and with the passengers. Street furniture will be primarily benches, trash receptacles and light standards. b. The lighting will serve to enhance the design of the canopy shelters and provide safety for passengers on the platforms, and in the transit area. DESIGN REVIEW POLICIES based on the Comprehensive Plan C. Tukwila Urban Center (TUC) Zone 1. There are no adjacent parking areas to provide interior vehicular connections to currently. 2. The site is not adjacent to a park. A connection to the site form the Interurban Trail to the west will be provided by a sidewalk. 3. There is no building proposed on the site. 4. No landscaping will be provided in the parking areas that are in the City of Renton. 5. The development is proposed to encourage the use of transit and to provide a safe, convenient and attractive connection among the various modes of transportation. 6. The development provides access to the Tukwila Urban Center by modes other than the single occupant vehicle. C".:c..k•+i... z I r- F- Z. CL 2 J U: UO! N Uw = I-- wO u_ O; I- =. z�.

The scope of the analy- sis was based on the "Pre- Application Comments" received from the City of Tukwila (March 11, 1999) and considered analysis already preformed as part of the SEPA process. The following summarizes the specific transportation analysis comments and the briefly outlines responses. Comment 1. Provide detailed information regarding parking demand for Sound Transit and Amtrak rail sta- tion. From demand, trip generation and distribution can then be established Response. Detailed trip generation and parking demand estimates for both Phase 1 and Phase 2 site conditions are included in the attached memorandum. The estimates are based on forecasts for ridership and mode split. Comment 2. Creating a multi -model hub will increase demand for feeder bus routes to serve the Commuter Rail /Amtrak station. Identy bus transit service upgrades that will be needed. Evaluate current and future bus routes. Identiblfrequency and routes of the proposed Sound Transit Commuter bus. Response. A detailed discussion of anticipated local feeder bus transit service at the facility is included in the attached memorandum. Comment 3. Given the regional shortage of park - and -ride spaces, identj percentage of lot users that may not use rail transit, but instead make bus or carpool connections. Response. This project does not attempt to solve the regional shortage of park- and -ride spaces. It will provide as many spaces as feasible to serve the anticipated ridership of the commuter rail and Amtrak service planned for the Tukwila Station. Given historical utilization of park -and ride lots, it is likely that the lot will eventually reach and/or exceed its capacity. Parking overflow to adjacent properties or on- street parking will require spe- cific management actions as mitigation. However, this lot would not likely be served by regional bus service. Therefore, it is not anticipated to serve as a major hub for non -rail related (i.e. carpool or bus transit) activity. Comment 4. Trip Generation and Distribution. Include traffic distribution to Nelson Place /S. 156th in addition to S 158th. Response. Detailed project trip distribution and assignments are included with the memorandum. The project traffic distribution shows that a large fraction of project trips would be destined to and from the north on SR 181 (West Valley Highway). Most of these trips would ultimately be destined to or from Grady Way and SR 515 to the east. None of this traffic is expected to use Nelson Place as a primary route to the station site. Nelson Place is not an attractive route for several reasons: 1) it is currently a narrow unimproved roadway with employee parking and trucks using right -of -way for loading on both sides, 2) travel times along Nelson Place would be longer than the route on SR 181, 3) turn movements at the SR 181/S 156th Street intersection are permissive 4133 Interlake Avenue N • Seattle, WA 98103 • Phone: (206) 547 -7170 Fax: (206) 547 -7744 Z ■ Z • re W 2. 6 0 rnCI, CO w.

Also, the Nelson Place route would not be attractive to the relatively small fraction of drivers destined from the Interstate -405 on/off ramps at S 156th Street. Drivers exiting Interstate 405 can choose between making a free - flow right turn onto SR 181 and then access the site via S 158th Street, or waiting in a queue of eastbound left- through traffic at SR 181 which is served by permissive signal control. The delay and queues in the eastbound left- through lanes combined with the longer travel times would deter drivers from this route. Drivers that choose the free -flow right have a relatively short distance to merge two lanes to the left to make a left turn at S 158th Street. This merge is made easy during the east -west signal phase at the SR 181 /S 156th Street intersec- tion. Very little traffic is anticipated to use either route since most of the riders are forecast to originate from residential areas east of the site. A small fraction (1%) of outbound traffic destined to the 1 -405 Northbound on ramp may use the Nelson Place route to avoid the SR 181/S 158th Street (Longacres Way) signal ; however, the small number of trips would not require mitigation or improvements to Nelson Place. Comment 5. On/Off -site analysis safety, circulation, pedestrian/bike routes /facilities, access points, bus move- ments, conflict points, human factors analysis, recreational trail connectivity. Response. The attached memorandum includes discussion of pedestrian, bicycle, automobile, bus access, and improvements proposed as part of the station design. Off -site (areas not affected by the exact site location and access plan) safety and circulation analysis was included as part of the SEPA process and documented in the Tacoma -to- Seattle Commuter Rail Draft Environmental Assessment and Environmental Checklist (Adolfson Associates, Inc., December 1997). Comment 6. Calculation of impact fees per City list of impacted intersection and/or any intersection that re- ceives five or more peak hour trips. Response. Impact fees have been calculated per the City list of impacted intersections. Separate fee calculations were prepared for Phase 1 and total- Phase -1 -plus- Phase -2 conditions. Comment 7. LOS calculations for intersections not on City list that receive five or more peak hour trips. Response. New LOS calculations were performed for three study area intersections that are affected by the up- dated site location and site access proposal. Other off -site impacts analysis was completed as part of the SEPA process and was disclosed in the Tacoma -to- Seattle Commuter Rail Draft Environmental Assessment and Envi- ronmental Checklist (Adolfson Associates, Inc., December 1997). Comment 8. !dents improvements to support transit access. Response. A discussion of planned transit improvements is included in the memorandum. Comment 9. Proposed mitigation for any impact identified Response. In addition to the impact fee participation, several site access improvements for bus transit, pedes- trian, and bicycle access are outlined in the memorandum as mitigation. Based on the analysis, no specific miti- gation is warranted at the three intersections along SR 181 that would be affected by the current site location and site access plan. Other off -site mitigation would be covered as part of the SEPA process and was outlined in the Tacoma -to- Seattle Commuter Rail Draft Environmental Assessment and Environmental Checklist (Adolfson Associates, Inc., December 1997).

OF PAGES: am responding to your question about the economic potential for a retail building pad at the Tukwila commuter rail station as proposed by Crandall Arambula on behalf of the City of Tukwila. As a retail developer myself, I want to find ways and examples where retail TOD can be successful, but more than any other form of development (office, residential, industrial), retail success is heavily influenced by site - specific characteristics. If you look at the successful TOD .projects, they are almost always located on sites that are strong commercial locations before adding a transit component -- the transit element just makes them stronger. A strong retail site is one that enjoys high traffic counts, either pedestrian, vehicular or transit. It is on a major intersection or thoroughfare, has high visibility, is across from a retail anchor or is part of a greater complex. .t, None of these ideal characteristics are' in place at this location. Because of the two railroad berms, the site has virtually no visibility from the West Valley highway, and would depend almost exclusively on the transit traffic for its customers. With only 200 -400 daily patrons in the next five years, and a potential of 800 in ten years, there are not enough people to support a business. To illustrate this point, let's assume that the project cost $120/sf to build. To get an 11% return, the developer would have to charge rents of $13.20/sf. A retail rule of thumb is that rents should not exceed 8% of sales, which gets us to a sales figure of $165.00/sf /year, or $1,650,000 for the 10,000sf building. If we assume that we get 800 customers a day over 250 days a year, every customer would have to spend $8.25 every day to generate enough sales to support the cost of the building. This is not to say that the station could not support a 1000sf retail building, or an espresso stand, but a 10,000sf building is far too large for this location. Daycare DMV Fax, 2/10/99, Page 1 ti� z • H W: U0 v)w w X: u- w o: gQ z �. zo Do. 01- • - 11.1 uji I 0 1- ,-_- IjZ. =' o z and dry cleaning are great uses for transit centers, but daycare needs an outside play area, and both daycare and dry cleaning need much larger customer bases than this site can provide. The siting of the building would further reduce the sales potential. If the services could be located between the parking lot and the platform, or on the platform, you might be able to intercept some of the potential customers. Located at one end of the parking lots, where a customer would have to walk away from the platform, or park and re -park their car, the pad does not encourage easy sales.. The third element that hurts sales potential is that commuter customers have different service needs in the morning than' in the evening. Given the nature of the commuter flows, a retailer, whether providing goods or service, only has a two -hour period every day in which to generate the day's sales. This is one reason targeting transit customers exclusively is a risky business. Keep in mind that the commuter can eat at home, drive through McDonalds or choose to pick up a muffin at the downtown end of his /her commute, and is not really a captive customer. As has been well documented in airport studies, it is very difficult to capture sales from homeward bound travelers during the evening peak. Implementing .a "recognizable and unique 'Main Street" would be difficult on this site because the market won't support a building of adequate size, the building would be invisible from the primary streets, and I don't think you can achieve the desired impact with only two buildings on either side of a oneblock stretch. If there is a potential to create an interesting commercial project, it should be on the north side of the street, on McLeod's parcel. I believe that SoundTransit has committed to cooperate with McLeod in supporting a transit - oriented development on the north parcel. The.various reports and correspondence point out that the Boeing campus population may be much higher than currently projected, and this could well be the case. This could increase both transit ridership and retail customer sales potential. If the campus population is large enough to support a cross - section of retail and service providers, the optimal location west of the railroad tracks is along the West Valley highway frontage just north of 158th Street, as identified on the Crandall Arambula station area plans. This site could service the transit ridership, Boeing campus workers and the local community, and is a much stronger retail site than the building proposed for the station site. Please call me if I can provide any further observations on this matter. DMV Fax, 2/10/99, Page 2 Tukwila Station Page 1 of 3 ! Sounder commuter rail STATION UPDATE Tukwila Station Construction of the Tukwila Station will begin this summer! Sound Transit is setting the stage to bring two -way, rush - hour Sounder commuter rail service to Tukwila residents by the end of 1999. Located at the old Longacres racetrack site, Tukwila Station is one of eight stations to be built along the initial 40- mile Tacoma -to- Seattle commuter rail line. Eventually, the system will be expanded to serve additional communities along the way to Lakewood to the south and Everett to the north. Sound Transit has recently purchased a 10.5 -acre station site bounded by Burlington Northern Sante Fe Railroad and Union Pacific Railroad tracks, south of Longacres Way and north of the future Strander Boulevard right -of -way. Since the property is adjacent to the Boeing Company's Longacres Campus, there is great potential to attract ridership from both employees and visitors. Boeing's Renton facility will be easily reached from the station by King County Metro bus. February 1999 Conceptual designs for the Tukwila Station have been completed by MBT Architecture, design and engineering consultants, based on community input. A Technical Advisory Committee, consisting of Sound Transit, King County Metro and City of Tukwila staff, advised the design team. In addition, meetings with the community were held during the fall to encourage public involvement in the design process. Design concept Sound Transit's architects were challenged with creating a station that is functional as part of a regional transit system and appropriate for the local character and heritage of Tukwila.

The result was a master plan featuring raised station platforms with a pedestrian tunnel connecting both sides of the track. The railroad bridge over Longacres Way will be replaced with a new bridge. A walkway and roadway will also be improved to enhance pedestrian access. The design theme for the station recalls the strong landscape elements of the natural valley of nearby Green River. The local history of aircraft development is also reflected in the architectural elements of the station, such as canopies that reflect elements of bird wings or aircraft wings. The design of Tukwila Station also accommodates the potential for Amtrak and Link light rail connections. Sound Transit is currently evaluating alternative routes for the central Link line from Seattle to Sea -Tac Airport. Two of the three alternatives would connect with Sounder commuter rail at this station. The Sounder station design will not interfere with the planning and siting of Link. Amtrak plans to serve this station with trains travelling between Vancouver, B.C. and Portland, Ore. This planning and design process considered the ultimate station build -out — that construction of major elements might be phased. Initially, Sound Transit will provide essential commuter rail transportation- related facilities, such as platforms with canopies, track improvements, ticket vending machines, bus transfer areas, passenger safety and security, lighting, accessibility improvements and bicycle storage. The artist's rendering shows the initial concept for the Tukwila Station.

Passenger cars are in production by Bombardier Transit Corporation of New York. Sound Transit ordered 38 passenger cars with an option to buy 20 more for expanded service to Everett and Lakewood in 2001. General Motors Corporation's Electro- Motive Division will supply six locomotives with an option for five more. Delivery of the new vehicles is expected by late in 1999, in time for testing and, soon after, the start of service. Riders can look forward to a fast, reliable and comfortable trip, bypassing the rigors of gridlock. Enjoy relaxing, reading, listening to music or catching up on work. The climate- controlled coaches will be equipped with worktables, outlets for laptop computers, overhead and bicycle storage, restrooms and drink- holders for that all- important latte! The Tukwila Station will provide access to 18 rush -hour passenger trains per day. There will be nine trains in the morning and nine in the evening. Questions?

The presentation by Don Arambula was insightful and very informative. We appreciate the City ofTukwila's prompt review and feedback on our preliminary design. We've asked our design team to review the Crandall Arambula memo and drawings. Their comments are incorporated in to our response to the suggested changes. Our comments are organized in order of the items listed in the memo. 1. REMOVAL OF PARK -AND -RIDE SPACES ALONG STRANDER BOULEVARD AND REPLACEMENT WITH OFFICE DEVELOPMENT. We agree that his revision would be beneficial to the station and the city in that it provides an opportunity for transit oriented development to connect the station with the community. The exact location of the future alignment of the Strander Boulevard extension is not known. The City of Renton and the City of Tukwila have discussed various options, but an alignment has not been selected. Because of this. we propose to identify an area of approximately one acre at the southernmost end of our property as "reserved for future office development." This area could serve as temporary parking, construction staging, etc. until such time as a developer or development partner was found to develop and office building at this site. As we discussed in our meeting last week, Sound Transit is not likely to build out the parking lot south of the City of Seattle's Bow Lake Pipeline in the initial construction phase. We would build the extension of Strander Boulevard LO the driveway into the station parking lot and build the driveway in the initial phase, and build parking south of the pipeline in a future phase as demand increases.

We appreciate the concept behind this re- orientation and additional parking spaces could be a benefit of such an arrangement. However, we are concerned about the safety of pedestrians in this sort of parking Iot layout. This layout would require passengers to walk from their cars with traffic coming up from behind them as they made their way to the platforms. We are also unsure if the parking lot layout can meet the City's code requirements for landscaping in this configuration. We will have our design team examine this layout and see if we can achieve similar benefits without jeopardizing the safety of our passengers walking between their cars and our platforms. 3.. REORIENT BUS TRANSFER FACILITY. This layout was designed in close coordination with King County Metro. The proposed redesign may be reasonable but needs to be discussed with King County Metro's Service Planning"staff. In addition, in light of budget constraints Sound Transit is:considering a reduction,in the amount;of space dedicated to bus transfers, :layovers and other bus activity on the station site We may redesign this area in ,conjunction with redesign of the. 158th Street entrance and provision of street front retail as discussed below. 4. Provide for a Transit - Supportive 10,000 Square -Foot Commercial Space on 158th Street. This is beneficial from an urban planning viewpoint, but we must ensure visibility of the station from the entrance to the site. Upon entering the station site from the west, it;needs to: be: clear immediately: to our customers how to access they commuter rail platformsiiFor this reason we would advocate buildings be designed to maintain visibility to the transit plaza and the platforms from the street. Consideration needs to be given to where parking for employees.and loading zones will be located for the convenience retail business(es). We also need to determine if we can still provide storm water detention as required by the City on site, as Crandall Arambula's suggested revisions appear to eliminate the two ponds we had shown on our preliminary site plan. 11002 Z 111 •I_' 'U O ,:N O! to w. • Q1-'.

CONSTRUCT CONTINUOUS PLATFORM SHELTER. Our station budget is not going to allow us to do this. We have analyzed the amount of shelter area needed on our platforms tor the peak load, on. the peak trait, and determined thatthe amount currently shown on the preliminary desin plans is more;-than adequati. Our final station design will likely show a reduction in the amount of canopies. Please see the attached table. 6. Pedestrian Access Improvements (Pedestrian Tunnel) in Phase L We agree that this is very important to the safety of our passengers and to the functionality of the station. As we discussed in our meeting last week, we are doing everything we can to see that the new pedestrian tunnel is implemented, along with the upgrades to the existing underpass at 158th Street, in the first phase of station development. Thank you again for the review and information provided to Sound Transit by Crandall Arambula, as well as the input from you and your staff. We look forward to continuing to work together as we move towards providing a transit facility that will meet the City of Tukwila's needs and those of the region.

The proposed use will not be materially detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to the property or improvements in the vicinity. The proposed development has been designed to be compatible with current and planned uses in the vicinity. The station will be located along existing railroad tracks, and will offer both northbound and southbound commuter service in the morning and evening hours. Alternative locations for the commuter rail station, including the initially proposed S.W 43`d Street/S. 180th Street station, were discussed with Tukwila staff, which recommended the currently proposed location. The site is cleared and vacant, and its use as a commuter rail station, with associated park -and- ride lot and transit center, will not displace current or planned uses. Amtrak has indicated its intention to use this station for its service as well; the proposal is consistent with that plan. Finally, the station will serve as a destination as well as the start of commuter trips, located as it is in close proximity to the Boeing Longacres employment center. The environmental impacts of the proposed use were addressed in Sound Transit Tacoma -To- Seattle Commuter Rail Environmental Assessment (Federal Transit Administration and Sound Transit, June 1998). The analysis and conclusions included in the Environmental Assessment are summarized below. Socioeconomic. The commuter rail would operate on existing tracks. No existing uses would be displaced by the proposal. The proposed action would not involve significant adverse impacts on populations protected by Executive Order 12898, Federal Actions to Address Environmental Justice in Minority Populations and Low - Income Populations. Based on the socioeconomic analysis, the proposed commuter rail station has the potential to provide mobility benefits to transit - dependent populations, while reducing household costs. Transportation. Traffic increases associated with commuter travel to the station would be limited to morning and evening commute hours. West Valley Highway, located west of the proposed station site, is a principal north -south arterial connecting directly to I -405. Vehicles would enter the station primarily via South Longacres Way. Operation of the station would not cause levels of service to change from projected future baseline conditions; intersection -by- intersection analysis results are summarized below, and discussed in more detail in the Environmental Assessment (EA). The intersections of Longacres Way/West Valley Highway, Stander Boulevard/West Valley Highway and Lind Avenue /SW 16th Street are expected to operate at acceptable LOS D or better during the 1997, 2010 baseline, and 2010 proposed action p.m. peak hour traffic conditions. The intersection of Fort Dent Road/West Valley Highway is operating at LOS E under existing conditions and would continue to operate at this level under the proposed action. The intersections of Grady Way/West Valley Highway and South 180th Street/West Valley highway are operating at LOS F under existing conditions and would continue to operate at this level under the proposed action. The intersection of Lind Avenue /Grady Way is operating at LOS D under existing conditions, and is expected to fall to LOS E both under the 2010 future baseline and proposed action. The intersections of Oakesdale Avenue /SW 16`h Street and Oakesdale Avenue /Grady Way currently operate at LOS B and LOS C, respectively. The 2010 baseline and proposed action levels of service are projected to fall to LOS E for the Oaksdale /SW 16th Street intersection and LOS F for the Oaksdale /Grady Way intersection. Longacres Way is currently in poor condition and would need to be reconstructed to support traffic associated with the proposed action. This reconstruction would benefit the surrounding property owners. Noise. The proposed commuter rail station is not expected to cause noise or vibration annoyance. Potential sources of noise and ground -borne vibration would include idling locomotives, feeder bus traffic and increased automobile traffic on adjacent roadways. Measures will be taken to control vibration along the commuter rail route, which will operate at first between Tacoma and Seattle; these include rail grinding, wheel truing, wheel flat detector systems, and vehicle reconditioning programs. Hazardous Materials. No contaminated sites included on the Washington State LUST, UST, and CSCS lists, or in the federal EPA databases occur on the proposed site, and the operation of the station will not increase the risk of contamination. Biological Resources. The proposed station site has been cleared and graded in the fairly recent past, and is currently vacant. No significant biological resources will be affected by the construction and operation of the station. Historical, Park and Recreation Resources. No properties listed under or eligible for listing under the National Register of Historic Properties 00.. moo'. • w= • w 0; 5. D. = d, I- al Z' z� I- 0- 2 o. w w: 0. „,w — O: O A24\ and the Washington Heritage Register are located on or in the vicinity of the proposed station. No parks or recreation facilities would be directly displaced by the proposed use, and no significant impacts to park and recreation resources located in the vicinity of the station site are anticipated. Cultural Resources. No potentially significant cultural resources were identified during field reconnaissance and no archaeological sites are recorded in the project area. If archaeological material is encountered during the proposed project construction, work should be halted and the Office of Archaeological and Historic Preservation are to be consulted to determine appropriate follow -up. Visual Quality. The station platforms would add some visual diversity but would have little effect on the visual resources of the area. The station is expected to improve the appearance of the site by replacing unkept open areas. Landscaping would be added to the interior and around the perimeter of the station to screen and break up views of the parking area. Safety and Security. The proposed station has been designed to promote safety and security. Potential commuter rail safety and security issues include safe operational interface between all transportation modes, as well as passenger safety and security aboard buses and trains, at transit stations, and in adjacent areas. Pedestrians would use one of two undercrossings (one existing and one proposed), thus avoiding the need to cross the tracks at grade. Passenger security both off and on the train has been incorporated into the proposed project. The design allows for ease of surveillance for police patrol cars. The shelters will be well lighted, well maintained, and patrolled by local police and transit security force. Air Quality. The air quality impacts of the proposed use were evaluated as part of the planning process, in close cooperation with the Puget Sound Air Pollution Control Agency (PSAPCA). The evaluation of air quality impacts indicated that corridor level emissions of carbon monoxide and particulate matter would be reduced under the proposed action relative to the 2010 baseline condition. Emissions of hydrocarbons and oxides of nitrogen would be slightly higher, due to the addition of commuter rail locomotives. Water Quality. Impacts to water quality at the proposed site are primarily related to increased runoff, and associated erosion and contaminant transport. Impacts due to runoff will be avoided or minimized through compliance with City of Tukwila drainage ordinances. On -site stormwater retention ponds have been incorporated into the site plan. z k; ul J0 • '00: . v�o' ' w w. ALI I, CO J H, w �( 7j, w Q: = W `z I-0 Z F-. . �j :U 00: 'w W w r z. w z Earth. The proposed project will involve earthwork (i.e. grading) for construction. Re- establishment of vegetation in non -paved cleared areas as soon as possible and application of appropriate ground cover would be used to minimize the potential for erosion hazards during operation. 2. The proposed use shall meet or exceed the same standards for parking, landscaping, yards and other development regulations that are required in the district it will occupy. Site development would be consistent with applicable Tukwila zoning requirements. The site is zoned Tukwila Urban Center (TUC, Chapter 18.28 of the Tukwila Municipal Code). The basic development standards (height, yard dimensions, landscaping guidelines, parking, and performance standards in TMC 18.28.080) will be met. The proposed station is consistent with the general purpose of the TUC district ( "It is intended to provide an area of high intensity.regional uses that include commercial services, offices, light industry, warehousing, and retail uses. Development is intended to be pedestrian - friendly, with a strong emphasis on a safe and attractive streetscape." TMC 18.28.010). The proposed use is generally less intensive and more compatible with nearby uses than most of the other uses identified as unclassified used in the TUC district; these, as listed in TMC 18.28.050, include airports, conversions of rental multi - family structures to condominiums, correctional institutions, essential public facilities, landfills, and transit centers. The proposed development shall be compatible generally with the surrounding land uses. The site is located immediately south of I -405 in the City of Tukwila, between the raised grades of the BNSF and UP railroad tracks. The City of Renton and the Boeing Longacres facility lie immediately to the east. Other land uses in the vicinity include a large parking area to the east, light industrial buildings, a recreational bike trial, and an existing office building. Much of the area surrounding the proposed station site is experiencing rapid development, and the conversion of undeveloped properties to commercial and/or office related uses is likely to continue. Retail development and other businesses or industries are likely to locate near the proposed station. 4. The proposed use shall be in keeping with the goals and policies of the Comprehensive Land Use Policy Plan. The site is designated as Urban Center in the City of Tukwila's Comprehensive Plan. The Comprehensive Plan describes the City's intent to support a high- density, regionally oriented, mixed use center in Tukwila. The Comprehensive Plan generally supports commuter rail in the Tukwila Urban Center to "help ensure Tukwila's long -term economic viability and competitiveness in the region." The Plan's Urban Center Goal 10.3, Transportation and Circulation, expresses the City's intent to "work with transit providers to develop and fund regional park- and -ride and rail locations where traffic and visual impacts on the Tukwila Urban Center are minimized through site design and management" (Goal 10.3.1). Similarly, Goal 10.3.3, Transit Service and Facilities, supports promoting "the development and enhancement of transit service and facilities." The proposed commuter rail station is consistent with these goals. While the existing rail lines fix the location of the station at the east edge of the Urban Center, its presence will help the Urban Center maintain a regional orientation and provide transportation infrastructure for continued growth. Its visual impacts are minimal, and traffic impacts result in no changes to levels of service compared to baseline conditions. 1--`: ne J U U O to 0': LOW W =, J F`: ur0 u.¢ ▪ ci • All measures shall be taken to minimize the possible adverse impacts ~ _; z�, t- z See Response 1, above.

Service will be largely on existing tracks, with improvements along the BNSF main line (including new additional track) as required to allow.increased passenger train speeds and to minimize conflicts with existing train traffic. The project includes specific mitigation commitments, which are described in more detail below. Access to the service will be provided from stations located within the cities of Seattle, Tukwila, Kent, Auburn, Sumner, Puyallup and Tacoma. Commuter trains will run in each direction along the 40 -mile corridor at approximately one -half hour intervals during peak commute hours. A total of 9 morning and 9 evening trips is planned. All stations except for those in downtown Seattle and Georgetown (provisional) will include park- and -ride facilities. In addition, pedestrian and bicycle access to all stations will be encouraged and enhanced by station design and station area improvements. Buses will provide access to all stations. Some stations will also be served by the regional express bus system. Station sites analyzed as part of this project represent a basic level of development, including parking, drop off areas, and station platforms.. Design and construction of station sites will occur in accordance with a community -based design process. This process will include selection of a design team for each station jointly by the local jurisdiction and Sound Transit, and design development by the selected team in consultation with the local jurisdiction's staff, a community -based advisory committee,.and Sound Transit. Construction of the Tacoma -to- Seattle stations and track improvements is projected to start in late 1998. Operation is expected to begin in late 1999. Other components of the Sound Transit program, including extensions of commuter rail service, light rail transit, and regional express bus service, will be coordinated and integrated with the Tacoma -to- Seattle commuter rail project, and will be subject to separate environmental review. A plan -level environmental impact statement was prepared for the Regional Transit System Plan in early 1993 (Regional Transit System Plan EIS). which included the current proposal. Project - level environmental review for the proposal began in December 1993 when a SEPA determination of significance (DS) was issued. Scoping meetings were held in each of the communities served by the commuter rail line in early 1994, and a combined preliminary National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) environmental assessment (EA) and State z i~ NN- W 6 _iO.

The document was circulated to local jurisdictions for their review and comment. When the first vote on financing for the Regional Transit System Plan failed in March 1995, work on the environmental review was suspended. Sound Transit reactivated the environmental review for the project in the fall of 1997, following voter approval of financing for the plan in November 1996. z ,- wThe current review of the proposal updates the environmental work begun in 1993 to reflect new r4 2 project design decisions, changes in adopted plans and regulations of the affected municipalities, 6 updated traffic forecasts, and other factors, including express mitigation commitments made by v o; Sound Transit. As part of this review, the DS issued in 1993 is being withdrawn (pursuant to , co 0 iu WAC 197 -11- 360(4)) and the form of SEPA documentation is being changed. There are several reasons for this. First, the prior analysis revealed no probable significant adverse environmental co u- impacts, the threshold for preparing an EIS. Second, community acceptance (based upon public w 0. input) was high and public controversy about the project's environmental issues was low. Third, g Q the Union Pacific (UP) track alternative was eliminated from consideration. Without the UP N track alternative, and given the lack of significant impacts, the need for an EIS evaluating = a alternatives was absent. Finally, Sound Transit has entered a set of mitigation commitments that I— i assure that the project will not have any significant adverse environmental impacts. These p mitigation commitments are set out in Attachment A and are incorporated herein by reference. w uj These commitments will be fully integrated into the project. 2 o �O N A draft EA was issued in December 1997 for public and agency comment. The EA was revised 0 H: in response to these comments. The completed EA was submitted to the Federal Transit = uj Administration (FTA), the lead agency for NEPA compliance, on April 6, 1998. Accompanying H I— LL- the submittal of the EA was Sound Transit's mitigation commitments and a request for a Finding z' of No Significant Impact (FONSI). FTA submitted additional comments, which were addressed l u), in a final EA prepared in June 1998.

W'. w =. J1- co The proposed Project is a commuter rail line from Tacoma,' . w o Washington to Seattle, Washington, inclusive of stations at Tacoma, Puyallup, . Sumner, Auburn, Kent, Tukwila /Renton . . ga.3 (Longacres), Tukwila (Boeing Access Rd), and Seattle (two (4 3. stations) Georgetown.and King Street (Downtown). The Project i = d includes improvements at the existing King Street Station site in Z w Seattle,. construction of new station buildings and associated transfer and parking facilities at all other station stops, z o improvements for bicycles and wheelchairs at each station.site, LIJ n . improvements along the railroad right -of -way between those stations, yard improvements, plus allowance. for rail equipment .p N, storage,..servicing and maintenance. 'o �. LU During the planning process for the project several alternatives P have been considered. The mode selected was commuter rail, and "-'o, the alignment selected was along the.existing Burlington Cum Northern/ Santa Fe Railroad (BNSF) double track right -of -way _. (ROW)., Extra tracks would be added to allow for timely commuter zF-' train operation. near Tacoma,. •Auburn and Seattle. • Project improvements to the right -of• -way would be utilized not only by the proposed commuter rail service but also by. AMTRAK and existing.privately operated rail freight services. Current bus transit service would be redirected in some instances and passengers would be expected to redirect their travel patterns at the, time .of project implementation: •Numerous.related projects in various stages of planning are proceeding independently. These projects have been determined by FTA to be functionally independent of the Tacoma- Seattle Commuter Rail Project, and their impacts are not considered in this Finding. They are: ,Additional improvements by the private railroads to enhance freight train movement through the corridor, which would be accomplished at the same time as the Project. Rail passenger service on the same railroad right -of -way that would operate at speeds exceeding those envisioned for the proposed commuter rail service. Page 1 of 15 Improvements at selected highway grade crossings along the railroad right -of -way in various stages of development that would likely proceed as funding is identified. Ancillary commercial development at station sites has generally . not been defined. There is currently no associated transit - oriented development planned at the stations, with the exception of previously planned development near Seattle's King Street Station: Proposed commuter rail lines from Seattle to Everett and from Tacoma to Lakewood would connect with the Project, but the Project has logical termini and independent utility without these projects. Most of the stations would serve as intermodal' facilities for commuter rail, bus, vanpool, .paratransit, bicycle, wheelchair and pedestrians. Most 'would have parking. Two stations would • connect directly with light rail stations, which are being considered in a parallel environmental 'process. • Right-of-Way and Railroad improvements: • , Aside from improvements at. each station site,• most improvements would be made on existing tracks or within the' existing BNSF and Union Pacific (UP) .rights -of -way. Improvements would be made to: signals, switches, track surface, bridges and yards. Where the existing trackage is inadequate.to accommodate the commuter. rail service, there will be several improvements. •These include the following: • Tacoma. The BNSF railroad would make improvements to its freight. yards to accommodate the storage of passenger trains near the station. The railroad would also improve access to the AMTRAK and Sound Move passenger stations by adding a third track through the yard. east of the station. Tacoma_Puyallup. The railroad would.add 2.6 miles of third track to enable passenger trains to.:bypass.freights, which must queue on the main line outside the Tacoma Industrial area.' This widening would also permit the straightening•of rail line curves to allow for higher.passenger train speeds. The widening and straightening would consume approximately.4 acres of existing wetland and would require mitigation to improve stream flows for migrating fish and to provide appropriate amounts of additional wetlands to compensate. for loss of existing ' wetlands.. . Black River Bridge. Currently, the railroad crosses over the Black River on a box culvert. The crossing would be replaced by a fully spanning bridge. The bridge would be designed to improve the setting for migratory fish and to meet State of Washington hydraulic code requirements. No new lands would betaken. Track Realignments - Auburn. In order to enable freight trains to merge into the main line from the Stampede Pass route without Page 2 of 15 delaying passenger service, several miles of double track in the Auburn area would be widened to triple track within the existing railroad right of. way. Track Realignments - Seattle to Tukwila. In order to eliminate conflicts between freight . and passenger trains, several changes would be made to the main running tracks. Between Georgetown and Tukwla the separate BNSF and UP rights -of -way would be consolidated into a three track jointly used right -of -way. Signalization of the line would be changed to accommodate the additional passenger service running at higher speeds. Between • King Street Station and Georgetown the main passenger and freight lines would be expanded to a three -track operation, permitting freights to move independently of passenger train yard movements and passenger trains to be routed around slow moving freights. Station Improvements: A description of the proposed station sites, or their alternatives, follows: Tacoma Station: The Tacoma Station would be located about a mile from downtown Tacoma and would consist of one 1100 -foot platform which is 2.0 feet wide. It would be located on Burlington Northern/Santa Fe property and would be connected from its south end to the existing Tacoma Dome intermodal station and parking structure by a pedestrian and wheelchair walkway along "F" Street. This walkway would be at -grade and would cross Puyallup Avenue at a signalized crossing. There would be two additional signalized crossings of Puyallup Avenue at "C" Street leading from the bus terminal via a second pedestrian and wheelchair walkway to mid - platform. Platform access routes would cross a lumber company siding track at grade. The station would be wheelchair accessible. The north end of the platform would connect to the AMTRAK station, improving the AMTRAK platform and allowing for transfer to high speed rail corridor trains. This location would also be the overnight storage site for most trains. This new yard, consisting of two tracks, would be located.in an existing Burlington Northern freight yard. The platform and the commuter rail service would be wheelchair accessible. Patronage is estimated at 1200 daily boardings. Puyallup Station: The Puyallup Station would be located in downtown Puyallup. There would be two 20 -foot wide platforms on either side of the track extending 1200 feet to the east from Meridian Street North. A new six -bus transfer facility plus automobile parking would be located on 2.1 acres of land between Stewart Street and the west side of the railroad from Meridian Street N. to S.W. 5th Street. On the east side of the tracks, approximately 4.17 acres of mostly vacant land and vacated streets would be paved for parking between Main Street and the railroad. The site is currently occupied by two homes, a triplex and approximately 9 business structures, which would be taken. Projections indicate demand for 270 parking spaces. The station would be wheelchair accessible. There would be two at -grade pedestrian and wheelchair crossings of the railroad tracks, along Page 3 of 15 z �w J0 0 00.

Patronage is estimated at 400 daily boardings. Sumner Station: The Sumner Station would be located close to downtown Sumner. There would be two 20 foot wide platforms extending 1000 feet south from Maple Street to approximately 100 feet south of Harrison Street. The platforms would be located on railroad land. There would be two small parking lots located on vacant land west of the railroad, a half -acre lot between Traffic Avenue and the railroad south of Maple Avenue and another of equal size adjacent to the railroad and north of Maple Street... On the east side of the station platform, 2.3 acres of vacant land would be used for parking and for a four bay bus terminal.' A second parking lot would be located on the half acre site of an existing public works facility along Harrison Street. The total amount of parking envisioned is 180 spaces. There would be only one pedestrian and wheelchair crossing of the tracks, at-grade on the sidewalk along the south side of Maple Street. Patronage is estimated at 300 daily boardings.' . Auburn Station: The Auburn Station would be located in downtown Auburn. There would be two 20 foot wide platforms extending 700 feet south from West Main Street. The platforms would be located on railroad land. Approximately 2.5 acres of parking would be situated between "C" Street and the west side of the railroad. This would be located on a combination of vacant land and land presently occupied by a large business. Approximately 1.3 acres of mostly vacant land would be used for parking on the east side of the railroad north of 3rd Street S.W. A multi -story parking structure has been proposed between First and Second street west of "A" Street on land occupied by several smaller buildings. The site is occupied by a house and six business structures, which would be taken. Parking spaces would total 540. A bus transfer facility would be located on the north side of First Street between "A" Street and the railroad. It would be connected by a pedestrian and wheelchair overpass to both sides of the tracks and would not be funded by Sound Transit. The bus terminal would be adjacent to an historic hotel building. An additional improved pedestrian and wheelchair crossing of the railroad would be at -grade along the sidewalk on the south side of West Main Street. Patronage is estimated at 900 daily boardings. tent Station: Two sites in Kent remain under consideration. Neither site has significant impacts and therefore neither is preferred from an environmental standpoint. Sound Transit has been working with the City of Kent to arrive at a decision. THis will likely be accomplished during the station area planning process. South Option: The Kent Station, south option, would be located in downtown Kent. There would be two 20 foot wide platforms extending 1100 feet north from Willis Street to Gowe Street. The intermediate, Titus Street, crossing of the railroad Page 4 of 15. z re 2 00. N0 rnw N LL w O, 2 Q j LL �d _. z� wI- 2 0 0 co 0E-. ww I-F II o .z w V =, z is to be closed in order to accommodate the continuous platforms. The platforms will be located on railroad property but will be adjacent to many parcels of property which are being considered for taking to accommodate auto parking. Up to 6.6 acres of land, including twelve homes, two duplexes and approximately 12 businesses, are proposed for taking to accommodate 810 parking spaces for automobiles and 0.7 acres to provide for a bus transfer terminal serving up to 10 buses. An alternative parking strategy (including a parking structure), which would reduce land taking by approximately 5 acres, is being considered. Funding for the parking structure has not been identified. There would be two improved at -grade pedestrian and wheelchair crossings of the railroad, on the north side of Willis Street and the south side of Gowe Street, at either end of the station. Patronage.is estimated at 1400 daily boardings. Vorth Option: The Kent Station, north option, would be located north of downtown Kent. There would be two 20 foot wide platforms extending north from Smith Street, 1200 feet in length on the east side and 960 feet in length on the west side, the latter being shorter due to a railroad freight. siding. Approximately 6.8 acres of land are proposed for parking for 810 ' vehicles between Firet Avenue and the railroad on the west of the right -of -way and between the alley east of Railroad Avenue and the railroad right -of way north of Smith Street. A bus transfer facility for 10 buses on 1.1 acres of land would be located south of James Street adjacent to the railroad track on the east side of the railroad right -of -way. The site is currently occupied by five houses, two duplexes and approximately five businesses, which would be taken. An additional 1.6 acres to the north of James Street on the east side of the railroad right -of -way may. be available from the railroad for future parking expansion, if needed. There would be two improved at -grade crossings for pedestrians and wheelchairs, on the north side of Smith Street and the south side of James Street. Patronage is estimated at 1400 daily boardings. Renton /Tukwila Station - Longacres Site: The preferred site for the Renton /Tuwila Station. would be located near the former Longacres Race Track site, south of I -405 and adjacent to the Boeing office complex and a proposed exposition center. The preferred site has also been indicated as the preferred site for a proposed AMTRAK station in the area. An alternative site at S.W. 43rd Street was considered but not selected. The station is currently proposed to consist of two 20 -foot wide platforms, 1100 feet in length (with potential for expansion to 1400 ft). The platforms would be on an approximately 15 -foot BNSF embankment on the existing railroad right -of -way. The project would require 8.3 acres of private land for 720 parking spaces and a bus transfer point directly south of I -405, north of Longacres Way and between the BNSF and UP railroad right -of -ways. Approximately 100 spaces are estimated for AMTRAK needs. The private land has been proposed by the owner to be jointly used by Sound Transit and the exhibition center. The land is currently Page 5 of 15 vacant, though it has been previously graded. Access to the site through private property from the east would be limited until the City of Renton completes its local station -area plan and identifies streets which would feed the location. Access to the west would be along Longacres Road, a privately improved street without sidewalks. Transfer facilities for bus patrons have not been located but would likely be in the parking area. Pedestrian access would be provided from the west along Longacres Way and there is planned access to.the private Boeing office campus development on the east. The two station platforms would be connected by an existing underpass under the railroad. Access for wheelchairs to the 'railroad platforms on either side of the embankment will be completed in accordance with Americans With Disabilities Act (ADA) standards. Patronage is estimated at 1000 commuter rail boardings. Tukwila - Boeing Access Road Station CTransfer to proposed Light Rail Line): The proposed Boeing Access Road Station would be located between the two easternmost tracks of the three track BNSF /UP main line. It is anticipated to be constructed in association with a station on the proposed Northgate -to- SeaTac light rail line, which would intersect the Seattle - Tacoma commuter rail line in the vicinity of Boeing Access Road. This location would allow for persons, many of ethnic minority, to transfer to and from light rail serving the lower Rainier Valley in the City of Seattle and the cities of Tukwila and SeaTac. .A small amount of land would be used. for 90 auto parking spaces and for a bus transfer facility. Patronage is estimated at 300.daily passengers. Georgetown Station (Provisional): The proposed Georgetown Station is considered to be "provisional" and would be constructed only if there is sufficient funding available. It would provide access to persons commuting to job opportunities in the Duwamish Industrial area and would be within walking distance of homes to the east on Beacon Hill and in the Georgetown neighborhood of Seattle. The site would provide opportunities for residents, in what is a minority neighborhood, to commute to work both to the north and the south.. It would consist of one 17 foot wide center platform 1•,000 feet in length to be situated between the two easternmost tracks of the combined BNSF /UP. right -of -way beneath Albro Place and Michigan Street. Tracks would be moved in the area in conjunction with freight track realignments on railroad property. One business would need to be relocated. There would be no parking. Wheelchair and pedestrian access would be provided by an elevator to Albro Place. Patronage is estimated at 60 boardings. Ring Street Station: The proposed commuter rail portion of the Ring Street Station terminal in Seattle would consist of a single, two sided platform extending south from South Jackson Street approximately 1,000 feet. It would be intersected by a bridge crossing the railroad at Weller Street and connecting the Ring Street Terminal and the International District Station, Page 6 of 15 a • w. 00 co o. wi w° < 21 d. = 1--W = z zo 111 w U� O 0 F- w iui U- z which serves the current bus tunnel and the proposed Northgate to SeaTac rapid transit line. There would also be a stairway from the north end of the platform to Jackson Street to accommodate pedestrians. Wheelchair access would be by elevator to the Weller Street overpass. Proposed rail service between Everett and Seattle would also use these platforms and the trains would likely be through- routed. There would be no parking at the station, with passengers expected to transfer from transit or to park commercially. Seattle would also be the location for trains to be cleaned, serviced and stored during the middle 'of the day. This would necessitate yard moves from the station as trains were taken out of service. Several trains would also be stored overnight in Seattle. Patronage is estimated at 5200 daily boardings. PROJECT HISTORY: Sound Transit, its predecessor agencies and the Puget ;Sound Regional Council (PSRC), the Metropolitan Planning Organization • (MO) for the region, conducted a series of studies which led to adoption of the proposed project. These included Long Range system planning studies of alternative modes in most regional corridors, financial feasibility studies, and a series of corridor analyses. These studies were brought together into a Major Investment Study which was endorsed by the Metropolitan Planning Organization, and the Central. Puget Sound Regional -Transit Authority (RTA) during April 1997. An environmental assessment (EA) of a proposal for a commuter rail line between Tacoma and Seattle was drafted under PTA grant. WA -03 -0078 during 1994 but was never finalized because the initial public referendum for the RTA was defeated at the polls.. After the 1996 public referendum which funded the RTA, the initial draft of the EA was updated to reflect changes which had occurred along the corridor during the interim. This updated analysis was initiated during the autumn of 1997 and finalized during the winter and spring of 1998. It is the current environmental document for the project.: . pLTERNAT1VES CONSIDERED:, Studies performed prior to the development of the current environmental review addressed a variety of modal and alignment alternatives, as outlined in Chapter 4 of the Environmental Assessment. Selection of station sites was coordinated with local communities and has been established at most sites. In Kent two alternative station sites continue to be presented. PUBLIC OPPORTUNITY TO COMMENT: The public was invited to comment on the initial draft of the Environmental Assessment, which was made available at public meetings held during early January 1998. The public was notified of the opportunity to comment through newspaper advertisements and by other means. The period for public comment was extended Page 7 of 15 � through the end of the month. There were in excess of 100 comments on the proposal. The public has been afforded adequate opportunity to comment on the Seattle - Tacoma commuter rail project. ENVIRONMENTAL EFFECTS: Sound Transit carried out a series of studies which defined the p'roject's alignment and suggested station sites. It then undertook an environmental analysis of.the proposed project. After a series of public meetings and an advertised request for comments the Final Environmental Assessment, dated June 1998, was provided to FTA by Sound Transit. The assessment presents the preferred alignment and preferred station sites with the exception of Kent, Washington where two alternative sites are provided. While potentially significant iinpacts.were noted. by resource agencies, Sound Transit has met with the agencies and addressed their concerns. Appropriate mitigation measures have been detailed in the EA and will be conditions of the • environmental finding. Based upoin.the evaluation contained in the updated.EA,•including written comments, from. resource agencies, no'significant impacts • which cannot be mitigated have been found. Sound Transit would undertake the proposed project . in accordance with the .design elements and mitigation measures presented in the document and in subsequent correspondence, which are incorporated by reference into this Finding of No. Significant Impact (FONSI). These • measures include, but are not limited to; the stipulations in the Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) found in the appendix to the EA, which was developed to comply with Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act. FTA will require in any future funding agreement-on the project and as a .condition of any future approval of a. Letter of No • Prejudice (LONP) on the project that all.committed mitigation be implemented in accordance with the EA. Any.project*changes, including changes in mitigation, deemed to be necessary or desirable as final design and' construction proceed, would be subject to appropriate environmental review prior to FTA approval. FTA would require that Sound Transit .submit quarterly written reports on its progress in implementing mitigation • •commitments. The measures to minimize harm are described throughout the EA and are summarized in attachment A to this document. Especially noteworthy is the following design mitigation feature which has been incorporated into the project design in response to public comments received: Modification to the design of the Tacoma - Puyallup segment of the railroad right -of -way to address wetland concerns. Page 8 of 15 Matters of environmental justice for low income and minority communities were considered during the evaluation but found not to be issues for this project. These are discussed in section 3.2.2 of the EA.' ENVIRONMENTAL FINDINGS: 49 USC Section 5324(b) The environmental record for the Tacoma- Seattle Commuter Rail Line includes the previously referenced EA. This document represents the detailed statement required by NEPA and by 49USC Section 5324(b) of the Federal Transit Act concerning the following: . The environmental impacts of the proposed project; Adverse environmental effects which cannot be avoided should the proposed project not be implemented; Alternatives to the proposed project; and Any irreversible and irretrievable impact on the environment which may be involved in the proposed project should it be implemented. On the basis of the evaluation of social, economic, and environmental impacts contained in the EA, and the written and oral comments ,offered by the public and other agencies, FTA has determined in accordance with 49 USC Section.5324(b) of the Federal. Transit Act that: Adequate opportunity was afforded for the presentation of views by all parties with a significant economic, social or environmental interest of the community in which the proposed project'is located; The preservation and enhancement of.the environment, and the interest of the community in which the project is located were considered; and There exists no feasible and prudent alternative to the adverse effect of the project and all reasonable steps.have been taken to minimize such effect. Conformity with Air Ouality Plans: The Federal Clean Air Act, as amended, requires that transportation projects conform with the State Implementation Plan's purpose of eliminating or reducing the severity and number of violations of the National Ambient Air Quality Standards and of achieving expeditious attainment of such standards. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regulation implementing this provision of the Clean Air Act (40 CFR Parts 51 and 93) establishes criteria for demonstrating that a transportation project is in conformity with applicable air quality plans. The performance of the Proposed Action in meeting Page 9 of 15 z =z re 2 uai�`. 0 0'. N0 cn w J=. F- U)w al Q` t- uti . z� zoo w w U 0 o- 0 1- w W, z' • 0~ z • the conformity criteria in the EPA regulation was evaluated in Section 3.11 of the EA on pages 3.11 -1 through 13. Based upon consultation with EPA, the project meets the criteria in 40 CFR Part 51 for projects from a conforming plan and TIP, and z • therefore conforms with air quality plans for the x 1. Seattle - Tacoma - Everett region and with the Clean Air Amendments re 2 of 1990. . -Iv0 The Seattle - Tacoma Commuter Rail Project is included in the • (no conformity analysis performed by the Puget Sound Regional Council w w (PSRC). PSRC has included the project in the region's Long Range Transportation Plan and FY 1998 .Transportation Improvement wu- Program (TIP). The FTA and FHWA jointly found that the TIP w o conforms with the State of Washington Implementation Plan on November 7, 1997. This action was concurred in by the Washington u. a State Department of Ecology (WSDOE) and the Washington State' N d Department of Transportation and coordinated with EPA. The FY w 1998 State of Washington Statewide Transportation Improvement . z ' Program (STIP), including the Seattle /Tacoma commuter rail z o project, was approved jointly by FTA /FHWA on June 4, 1998. w w Because the proposed project is located in a maintenance area for o w CO and ozone, and a nonattainment area for PM10, a project level ol-., conformity analysis satisfying all applicable criteria was w w conducted for the project. Section 4(f) Findings: The proposed project does not use or z significantly impact any park or recreational resources protected 0 N by Section 4(f). The project, in conjunction with other 1-" ?= projects, would require changes to the appearance of the King z Street Station in Seattle, a property included on the National Register of Historic Places and protected under 4(f). Section 4(f) findings for King Street Station were addressed in a separate FTA environmental process administered through the State 1 of Washington and the City of Seattle. In accordance with Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act and other cultural resources legislation, Sound Transit has consulted with the FTA; the Washington State Department of Community, Trade and Economic Development, Office of Archaeology and Historic Preservation (SHPO); and the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation (Council) on this project. A Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) among the FTA, Sound Transit, and the SHPO and concurred in by the Council has been executed to ensure that the project would be implemented in accordance with the stipulations contained in the MOA. This agreement also takes into account the effect of the undertaking on the King Street Station. The MOA is included as an addendum to the EA. Floodplain Finding: DOT Order 5660.2, Floodplain Management and Protection, implements the major requirements of Executive Order 11988, Floodplain Management, which are to avoid support of development in floodplains; to prevent uneconomic, hazardous or incompatible use of floodplains; to restore and preserve the Page 10 of 15 natural and beneficial floodplain values; and to be consistent with the standards and criteria of the National Flood Insurance Program. In accordance with Executive Order 11988, FTA concludes in Section 3.12 of the EA that while parts of the project are within historic 100 -year floodplain areas, the railroad right -of -way and embankment have been generally within the proposed location for 125. years. For the most part the project does not propose to change the embankment in the floodplain. The base of the track ballast is above the height of the 100 year flood. Where there is to be an addition of the third track along the right -of -way in floodplain areas, alternatives to the location have been considered. It has been concluded that there is no feasible alternative, that there would be no additional stimulus to development in the floodplain as a result of the project, and that improvements to water courses crossing and paralleling the right -of -way as a result of the project would improve the circulation of flood water during episodes of flooding. Areas of station development are, for the most part, outside of flood plain areas. The nature of station area development as a result of the commuter service would be to provide automobile parking and very spare stations. These activities would remove buildings :La station areas. •Subsequent station -area development would be accomplished in accordance with local and State zoning requirements, which take into consideration development in areas with the potential for flooding. . Wetlands Finding: DOT Order 5660.1A states that it is the policy of DOT to assure the protection, preservation and enhancement of the nation's wetlands to the.fullest extent practicable during the planning, construction, and operation of transportation facilities and projects. FTA implementation of this DOT Order satisfies the major requirement of Executive Order 11990 that new construction located in wetlands be avoided unless there is no practicable . alternative to the construction and that the proposed action .include all practicable measures to minimize harm to wetlands which may result from such construction. An analysis of the alternatives concluded that there was no practicable alternative to the improvements proposed. The identification and analysis of potential wetland impacts of the Seattle - Tacoma Commuter Rail Line are addressed in Section 3.6 of the EA. Consistent with the Executive Order, FTA finds that potential impacts to wetlands will occur as a result of the project. Sound Transit has agreed to undertake actions which would mitigate the impacts of the project on these wetlands. The mitigation actions are intended not only to maintain the natural systems in relationship to the existing right -of -way in such a way as to minimize harm, but also to improve the existing system in such a way as to enhance the environment which has been impacted by the presence of the railroad in the wetlands for the past century. Page 11 of 15 pEPA Finding: Based on the Environmental Assessment it is the Federal Transit Administration's finding under 23 CFR, 771.121, that, with mitigation, there are no significant impacts on the environment associated with the development and operation of the proposed project. Helen M. Knoll Regional Administrator GAO/CIT Date • . • Page 12 of 15 COMMITTED MITIGATION MEASURES - SEATTLE - TACOMA COMMUTER RAID PROJECT: In the event the project is approved, Sound Transit is committed to all the mitigation efforts documented in the EA. Following is a summary of some of the more important items: 1. Biological Resources /Ecology - Wetlands a. Tacoma - Puyall p,: A third track will be added to the current double track right of way adjacent to or in wetlands. Mitigation goals for this portion of improvements include maintaining the preconstruction hydrologic regime of the area, creating replacement wildlife habitat and improving overall habitat quality, and improving water, quality. Retaining walls will be designed to support the new ,track to avoid or minimize direct loss of wetlands, portions of Clear and Canyon Creeks will be relocated further away from the railroad in order to improve stream habitat values, and new channels will be designed to improve' juvenile salmon rearing. This information is further described under the mitigations section of Section 3.6 of the Environmental Assessment and in correspondence between the Washington State Department of Fish and Wildlife and Sound Transit, which is included with this FONSI. b. Flack River Bridge: Anew bridge is proposed for the BNSF crossing of the Black River. In -water work would be avoided to the maximum extent practicable during construction, and best management practices would be implemented during construction to minimize erosion and runoff. 2. Contaminated Materials: The participants in the project will provide for the removal of any hazardous or contaminated materials found on the station sites or in other areas where related construction activity will occur. This work will be performed in accordance with procedures identified in the Environmental Assessment, related documentation and permits which would be issued subsequently. In the case of contamination, evaluation of alternative sites and possible remediation will be undertaken in accordance with law. Appropriate health and safety monitoring and procedures will be employed at work sites. FTA does not currently participate in the cost of clean -up of contaminated soils. Under brownfield initiatives being developed, however, this policy may change. 3. Endangered Species,: Sound Transit will limit periods of construction within the tidal area in order to meet certain requirements of migrating fish in accordance with procedures outlined in the Environmental Assessment plus documentation and permits issued subsequently. 4. Land Acquisitions and Displacements: In cases of property acquisition and displacement, where federal funds are used, Page 13 of 15 Z a �: m2 0 0+ N0. cn w w= w o` u.a N rw z� z °.. w uj . o- o E-. w w. �v_ o .z. w o'' Z Federal relocation and real property acquisition guidelines would be followed to protect the interests of current land owners. Most track widening would occur on existing railroad right -of -way. For approximately 2.6 miles between Puyallup and Tacoma there would be widening of the "right -of -way to accommodate a third track. Some of the land to be used would be on landholdings of members of the Puyallup Indian Tribe and on tribal land. These parcels would be obtained in accordance with procedures applicable to the tribal land acquisition or lease. At all other locations," primarily for parcels in station areas, land associated with commuter rail projects would be acquired in accordance with local, state and Federal regulations (FTA Circular 5010.1, as amended) applicable in compensation and /or relocation of property owners. 5. Transportation - Construction: In cases of. impacts resulting from station construction, Sound Transit would undertake necessary. detour route signing and normal construction safety measures, including the provision of flaggers alternate routes. In cases of construction at railroad grade crossings across major arterials, the hours of construction would be limited to non -peak" hours, providing full access during peak traffic hours. Selected street improvements will be made, where appropriate. 6. Noise and Vibration: The participants in the project will . undertake certain noise mitigation measures during construction to lessen impacts in accordance with procedures identified in the Environmental Assessment. Planning and design .for crossovers and other special track work will make efforts to avoid noise and /or vibration sensitive land uses. Vehicle specifications will limit vertical resonance frequency of primary suspension. Specific maintenance measures to control vibration, such as rail grinding, wheel truing, wheel flat detector systems and vehicle reconditioning programs, will be part of the normal maintenance practices. 7. Earth: Best management practices would be employed to control potential erosion during construction. Where depths of liquifiable soils are located 10 -50 feet below the ground surface, ground improvement procedures such as deep dynamic compaction, vibro densification, and compaction grouting, may be necessary. 8. Water Quality /Hvdroloav: For any fill required in the 100 year floodplain to construct the new third track segment between Tacoma and Puyallup, construction will comply with applicable Federal and local regulation to minimize floodplain impacts. Measures such as improving, replacing or adding culverts for streams crossing under BNSF track are proposed as part of the project. Construction at station sites will fully comply with local permitting requirements. Stormwater collection and control system planning and operation will employ a variety of techniques Page 14 of 15 to minimize impacts. Oil and water separators will be used as appropriate or required. Strategies for addressing construction spills and plans for such episodes will be developed. 9. Visual Ouality: Visual impacts at several station sites would be reviewed during community based design processes to= consider enhancements for the surrounding communities. The MOA for historic preservation addresses visual impacts as well for settings where there is the potential for impact on historic properties and districts. Further evaluation of the visual and historic potential of facilities could occur during the community based design process.. Landscaping and vegetation would be provided as definition between communities and stations and parking lots, as appropriate. Where buildings are . constructed in street settings, consideration will be given to including architectual details on exteriors of buildings to provide interest. 10. Historical Resources: The MOA for the project and the previous MOA for the Ring Street Station project address processes to be considered for historic preservation. These MOAs are included as appendices to this FONSI. Where historic resources are located in the vicinity of proposed stations, Sound Transit may incorporate compatible station design. 11. Safety and Security: Proper signal and gate protection will be installed at grade crossings where there will be pedestrians .activity crossing active . railroad tracks, particularly at sidewalk access points around stations. Sound Transit will also provide extended detection, Constant. Warning Time Signaling (CWT), traffic signal improvements where needed and additional gates as appropriate at 40 grade crossings between Seattle and Tacoma and would provide safety training where appropriate. 12. Archaeological Resources: Field reconnaissance will be taken in advance of any construction activities and professionally trained . individuals will be available on site during construction activities, where appropriate. 13. Farmlands Protection: Sound Transit will comply with all applicable requirements of the Farmlands Protection Policy Act of 1981, as amended. These may include completion of coordination before initiation of right -of -way design and land acquisition.

These levels of service are designated with letters ranging from LOS A, which is indicative of good operating conditions with little or no delay, to LOS F, which is indicative of stop -and -go conditions with frequent and lengthy delays. Levels of service for this analysis were devel- oped using procedures presented in the 1997 Highway Capacity Manual. Level of service for signalized intersections is defined in terms of delay. Delay can be a cause of driver discomfort, frustration, inefficient fuel consumption, and lost travel time. Specifi- cally, level of service criteria are stated in terms of the average delay per vehicle in seconds. Delay is a complex measure and is dependent on a number of variables including: the quality of progression, cycle length, green ratio, and a volume -to- capacity ratio for the lane group or approach in question. Table 1 shows the level of service criteria for signalized intersections from the 1997 Highway Capacity Manual. Table 1. Level of Service for Signalized Intersections Level of Service Average Delay Per Vehicle General Description A B c D F Less than 10.0 Seconds 10.1 to 20.0 seconds 20.1 to 35.0 seconds 45.1 to 55.0 seconds 55.1 to 80.0 seconds Free flow Stable flow (slight delays) Stable flow (acceptable delays) Approaching unstable flow (tolerable delay —occassionally wait through more than one signal cycle befor proceeding. Unstable flow (approaching intolerable delay) Greater than 80.0 seconds Forced flow (jammed) Source: Transportation Research Board, Highway Capacity Manual, 1997. For unsignalized intersections, level of service is based on the average delay per vehicle for each turning movement. Delay is related to the availability of gaps in the main street's traffic flow, and the ability of a driver to enter or pass through those gaps. Table 2 shows the level of service criteria for unsignalized intersections from the 1997 Highway Capacity Manual. Table 2.

The purpose of this study is to provide preliminary geotechnical recommendations for the proposed Tukwila Commuter Rail Station. These recommendations will be used in the 30 percent schematic design. Our scope of work consisted of conducting a reconnaissance of the site and reviewing our library and files for information on the subsurface conditions for the site and vicinity, At the time our study was performed, the site, existing rail line, proposed platform and parking locations were approximately as shown on the attached Site Plan, Plate 2. Project Description We understand it is planned to construct a commuter rail station at the subject as part of the Sound Transit rail transit system. The station will use the existing north and southbound Burlington Northern Santa Fe railroad tracks. The station would consist of raised platforms for loading and unloading passengers and surface level parking and bus drive areas. The raised platforms will be located on the east and west sides of the tracks. The platforms will be level with the existing tracks, which will require raising grades by eight to ten feet adjacent to the existing tracks. The fill placed for the platform will be laterally supported by concrete retaining walls. The platforms will include relatively lightly loaded covered shelter areas. Surface level parking will be provided for passenger vehicles and busses on the west side of the existing railroad tracks. The surface level parking will be at or near existing site grades which are about eight to ten feet below the level of the existing tracks. Access to the platforms will be provided by stairs and ramps. We anticipate the surface level parking will be asphalt paved, with traffic primarily consisting of passenger vehicles and occasional service trucks. tl /q 'd 69L1'ON Earth Consultants. Inc.

STUDY MBT Architecture E -8427 October 23, 1998 Page 2 At the north end of the station, it is planned to provide a bus loading area and plaza. The bus and plaza areas will be constructed near existing grades. Traffic Toads in the bus loading area will consist of frequent, slow- moving and turning heavily loaded busses. As such, we anticipate the bus loading and drive areas will be surfaced with a concrete paving section. In the plaza area, a single -story communications building and support facilities are planned. We anticipate these buildings will be of relatively lightly- loaded steel -stud or wood -frame construction with slab -on -grade floors. The preliminary conclusions and recommendations in this study. are based on our understanding of the proposed rail station which is in turn based on the preliminary information provided us. If the above project description is incorrect or the project information changes, we should be consulted to review the recommendations contained in this study and make modifications, if needed. Changes in the project can also be incorporated into the final geotechnical engineering study. SITE CONDITIONS Surface The proposed Tukwila 'Commuter Rail Station is located north and east of the intersection of Strander Boulevard and West Valley Highway. The study area is bound to the north by Longacres Way and single -story Tight manufacturing buildings, to the west by the Union Pacific Railroad right -of -way, retail buildings and multi -story hotels, to the south by undeveloped land and to the east by the former Longacres Horse Racing Track. Most of the study area is relatively level, with less than about five feet of elevation change . across the length of the proposed parking area. However, the existing Burlington- Northern Santa -Fe railroad tracks are supported on a wedge of fill about eight to ten feet above the level of the parking, plaza and bus loading areas. In the north half of the study area, there appears to be a recently placed surcharge fill. The fill is on the order of three feet high. The site is sparsely vegetated with grass and large maple trees. Most of the site consists of bare soil. • Earth Consultants, Inc. t-1t9 'd 69LZ'o.N CIPlvIInSNn,`l HIHVR .s7.13r, z �w ce J U c.)

It also provides a framework for anticipating subsurface conditions that may be reasonably expected based on our past experience with similar geologic units. The study area is located within the Green River Valley. This valley consists of a former marine embayment formed during the Vashon Stade of the Fraser glaciation about 12,000 to 10,000 years before present. The marine embayment was subsequently filled -in by prograding deltaic deposits from the Green River. The deltaic deposits are up to seven hundred (700) feet deep in the vicinity of the site and consist of loose to medium dense black poorly graded sand and silt. As the valley filled to above sea level, the Green River entered a meandering regime, in which the river worked its way back and forth across the valley forming oxbow lakes which may contain peat and silt deposits. Overbank deposits consisting of silt and clay were also laid down across the valley during floods. Based on the geologic history and our experience with similar projects, we anticipate the site is underlain by moderately compressible loose silt and poorly graded sand with silt to a depth of thirty (30) to forty (40) feet below grade. From forty,(40) to fifty (50) feet, these soils likely grade to medium dense, eventually becoming dense to very dense at fifty (50) to sixty (60) feet below grade. As part of this study, a subsurface exploration was not conducted. A subsurface exploration consisting of test pits and borings will be performed as part of the final geotechnical engineering study. The groundwater table would likely be encountered at five to ten feet below grade, depending on seasonal conditions. DISCUSSION AND RECOMMENDATIONS General Based on the results of our preliminary study, it is our opinion the commuter rail station can be constructed generally as planned. The critical geotechnical issues which will need to be addressed for the proposed station are the potential for settlement of the existing rail line which will be induced by the fill placed to raise the platform areas, providing adequate support for the covered platform and parking areas and providing a stable pavement subgrade. t1. /L 'd 69LZ'oN Earth Concult,u,ts, Inc.

This fill will induce a potential stress increase of about 1,200 pounds per square foot (psf) and will preload the underlying compressible soils. We estimate settlement induced by the weight of this fill could be on the order of four to six inches. The settlement induced by the fill should be monitored and when the settlement ceases or the anticipated future settlement is considered with tolerable limits, construction of the platforms may begin. Based on our experience in this area, we estimate a settlement period of six to ten weeks. Due to the proximity of the fill to the existing rail line, it is likely, there will be some settlement of the existing tracks, which will require leveling of the existing tracks after completion of the settlement. Alternatively, the platforms could be structurally supported. In our opinion, lightly loaded structures such as the covered station platforms and service buildings may be supported on conventional spread footing foundation systems. In order to provide adequate bearing support and mitigate the potential for settlement, conventional spread and continuous footing foundations should be supported on at least two feet of structural fill. In order to provide adequate support for asphalt and concrete paved surface parking and drive areas, it will be necessary to provide a stable pavement subgrade. In our opinion, the upper foot of the subgrade soils should be compacted in -place to the requirements of structural fill and be in a firm and non - yielding condition. This preliminary study has been prepared for specific application to this project only and in a manner consistent with that level of care and skill ordinarily exercised by other members of the profession currently practicing under similar conditions in this area for the exclusive use of MBT Architects and their representatives. No warranty, expressed or implied, is made. Site Preparation and General Earthwork Building and pavement areas should be stripped and cleared of structures surface vegetation, organic matter and any other deleterious material. Existing underground utilities to be abandoned should be removed so that they do not provide a conduit for water and cause soil saturation and stability problems. • Earth Consultants.

Soil in loose or soft areas, if recompacted and still yielding, should be overexcavated and replaced with structural fill to a depth that will provide a stable base beneath the general structural fill. The optional use of a geotextile fabric placed directly on the overexcavated surface may help to bridge unstable areas, Structural fill is defined as compacted fill placed under buildings, roadways, slabs, pavements, or other load- bearing areas. Structural fill under floor slabs and footings should be placed in horizontal lifts not exceeding twelve (12) inches in loose thickness and compacted to a minimum of 90 percent of its laboratory maximum dry density determined in accordance with ASTM Test Designation D -1557 (Modified Proctor). The fill materials should be placed at or near their optimum moisture content. Fill under pavements and walks should also be placed in horizontal lifts and compacted to 90 percent of maximum density except for the top twelve (12) inches which should be compacted to 95 percent of maximum density. During dry weather, most soils which are compactible and non - organic can be used as structural fill. We anticipate the subsurface soils contain more than five percent fines and will degrade if exposed to excessive moisture, and compaction and grading will be difficult if the soil moisture increases significantly above its optimum condition. If the native soil is exposed to moisture and cannot be adequately compacted then it may be necessary to import a soil which can be compacted. During dry weather, non - organic compactible soil with a maximum grain size of six inches can be used. Fill for use during wet weather should consist of a fairly well graded granular material- having a maximum grain size of six inches and no more than 5 percent fines passing the No, 200 sieve based on the minus 3/4 -inch fraction. Platform Fill and Settlement Monitoring Up to ten feet of structural fill may need to be placed in order to achieve construction subgrade levels in the platform areas, The weight of this fill will induce a stress increase on the order of 1,200. psf and induce settlement of the underlying moderately compressible soils. Due to the proximity of the platforms to the existing railroad tracks, there will be a corresponding amount of settlement in the existing tracks, which may require leveling of the existing tracks after completion of the settlement period. 4.1 ir. .

Based on our experience in this area, we estimate a settlement period of six to ten weeks will be necessary. The actual surcharge period will be dependent upon settlement readings. If a shorter surcharge period is needed, a surcharge could be used A surcharge would consist of placing fill above the construction subgrade elevation in order to apply more weight to the compressible soils and increase the rate of settlement. In order to effectively preload the platform area, the platform fill should be extended at least five feet beyond the limits of the platform and should include stairways and ramp areas. The side slopes of the platform fill should be inclined no steeper than 1H:1V. The settlement monitoring program should consist of setting settlement monitors on the existing site subgrade before fill is placed, monitoring them through completion of fill placements and continuing until the settlement is completed. Conventional Foundations Conventional spread and continuous footing foundation systems may be used for platforms, covered shelters and support buildings. Due to the loose conditions of the near surface soils, conventional foundations should be supported on at least two feet of structural fill. This will require overexcavating the foundation bearing soils to a depth of at least two feet below foundation subgrade elevation and then backfilling the overexcavation with structural fill. The width of the overexcavation should be at least one half the overexcavation depth. For example, assuming a two foot wide footing and two foot overexcavation depth, the overexcavation width would be four feet. With foundation support obtained as described, for design, an allowable bearing capacity of two thousand five hundred (2,500) psf for structural fill can be used. Loading of this magnitude would be provided with a theoretical factor -of- safety in excess of three against actual shear failure. For short -term dynamic loading conditions, a one -third increase in the above allowable bearing capacities can be used, Continuous and individual spread footings should have minimum widths of eighteen (18) and twenty -four (24) inches, respectively. For frost protection considerations, exterior foundation elements should be placed at a minimum depth of eighteen (18) inches below final exterior grade. Interior spread foundations can be placed at a minimum depth of twelve (12) inches below the top of slab, except in unheated areas, where interior foundation elements should be founded at a minimum depth of eighteen (18) inches.

Most of the settlement should occur during construction as the dead Toads are applied. Horizontal toads can be resisted by friction between the base of the foundation and the supporting soil and by passive soil pressure acting on the face of the buried portion of the foundation. For the latter, the foundation must be poured "neat" against the competent native soils or backfilled with structural fill, For frictional capacity, a coefficient of .30 can be used. For passive earth pressure, the available resistance can be computed using an equivalent fluid pressure of three hundred (300) pcf. These lateral resistance values are allowable values, a factor -of- safety of 1.5 has been included. As movement of the foundation element is required to mobilize full passive resistance, the passive resistance should be neglected if such movement is not acceptable: Seismic Design Considerations The Puget Lowland is classified as a Seismic Zone 3 in the 1997 Uniform Building Code (UBC). Earthquakes occur in the Puget Lowland with regularity, however, the majority of these events are of such low magnitude they are not felt without instruments. Large earthquakes do occur, as indicated by the 1949, 7.2 magnitude earthquake in the Olympia area and the 1965, 6.5 magnitude earthquake in the Midway area. There are three potential geologic hazards associated with a strong motion seismic event at this site: ground rupture, liquefaction, and ground motion response. Ground Rupture The strongest earthquakes in the Puget Lowland are widespread, subcrustal events, ranging in depth from thirty (30) to fifty -five (55) miles. Surface faulting from these deep events has not been documented to date. Therefore, it is our opinion that the risk of ground rupture at this site during a strong motion seismic event is negligible, • Earth Consultants, Ina.

Groundshaking of sufficient duration results in the loss of grain to grain contact and rapid increase in pore water pressure, causing the soil to behave as a fluid. To have a potential for liquefaction, a soil must be cohesionless with a grain size distribution of a specified range (generally sand and silt); it must be loose; it must be below the groundwater table; and it must be subject to sufficient magnitude and duration of groundshaking. The effects of liquefaction may be large total and /or differential settlement for structures founded in the liquefying soils. In our opinion, the potential for liquefaction induced settlement at this site is moderate. Ground Motion Response The 1997 UBC seismic design section provides a series of soil profile types. that are used as a basis for seismic design of structures. Based on the encountered soil conditions, it is our opinion that soil type SE from Table 16 -J should be used for design. Surface Level Parking Areas The adequacy of site pavements is related in part to the condition of the underlying subgrade. To provide a properly prepared subgrade for pavements, the subgrade should be treated and prepared as described in the Site Preparation and General Earthwork section of this report. This means at least the top twelve (12) inches of the subgrade should be compacted to 95 percent of the maximum dry density. (per ASTM D- 1557). It is possible that some localized areas of soft, wet or unstable subgrade may still exist after this process. Therefore, a greater thickness of structural fill or crushed rock may be needed to stabilize these localized areas. The following pavement section for passenger vehicle parking and drive area can be used: • Two inches of asphalt concrete (AC) over six inches of crushed rock base (CRB) material, or Two inches of AC over four inches of asphalt treated base (ATB) material.

McBryan, P.E Subject: Tukwila Commuter Rail Station Transportation Analysis This memorandum presents transportation impacts analysis to support the Unclassified Use Permit application for the Tukwila Commuter Rail Station proposed by Sound Transit. This memorandum responds to comments and requests made by the City of Tukwila Public Works Department after the Pre - Application meeting of February II, 1999. Subsequently, a list of comments and Traffic Analysis Requirements were provided to Sound Transit on March 17, 1999. Sound Transit is proposing to construct the Tukwila Commuter Rail Station in two phases. These phases are primarily distinguished by the total number of parking spaces. Phase 1 would provide 413 parking spaces. Phase 2 would expand the parking lot to provide approximately 640 parking spaces and Amtrak service would commence. This memorandum presents traffic analysis for both phases of development. The analyses are based on the most current commuter -rail- ridership forecasts, mode -split estimates, and train schedule data. Station Vehicular Traffic Commuter rail is expected to decrease regional traffic volumes by providing rail service from Lakewood through Tacoma to Seattle with a connection to Everett. It is expected that the commuter rail service would reduce the amount of through traffic on regional highways such as Interstate -5 and Interstate -405 and would also increase the mass - transit capacity. An increase in traffic, however, is expected at and around commuter rail station sites such as Tukwila. The Phase -1 traffic analysis for the Tukwila Station considers the commuter rail ridership and traffic impacts that would occur near the station with the proposed 413 park- and -ride spaces. This Phase -1 park- and -ride lot would support a ridership level of approximately 590 boardings per day; approximately 65% of the year 2010 ridership which is forecast to be 900 boardings per day. Phase 2 would add 227 spaces (for a total of 640spaces) and would serve the forecast year 2010 ridership. Off -site, site- access, and parking impacts would be directly related to the ridership activity and mode of travel for riders at the station. All passenger - vehicle traffic would access the site from the west (SR 181 /West Valley Highway) at either S Strander Boulevard or S 158th Street (Longacres Way). Access to the east through the Boeing Longacres site would be limited to bus transit. The following summarizes analysis of Phase -1 and Phase -2 conditions. 4133 Interlake Avenue N • Seattle, WA 98103 • Phone: (206) 547 -7170 Fax: (206) 547 -7744 Z W J 0, • 0 w= u; w 01 • a' t.- • w. 2 Z �. zo jo .0 . = V' LL' O: 2!, g` - _. 'O ~: ( n Tukwila Commuter Rail Station Transportation Analysis May 17, 1999 Page 2 of 7 Trip Generation H HEFFRON ROB "! TRANSPORT, \Ti ON The number of trips generated by the proposed station for Phase 1 was derived based on ridership that could occur with the number of proposed parking spaces. Trip generation for Phase 2 was simply based on forecast 2010 ridership estimates. Ridership estimates were combined with anticipated train schedules and mode -split estimates provided by Sound Transit. The Phase 1 commuter rail station would provide 413 parking spaces and would serve approximately 590 daily boardings. Phase 2 would add 227 parking spaces (for a total of 640 spaces) and would serve 900 daily boardings in year 2010. This traffic impact analysis evaluates conditions during the PM peak hour. Based on a recent 24 -hour traffic count performed by the City of Tukwila (September, 10, 1998) on West Valley Highway north of Strander Boulevard. the PM peak hour traffic volumes are more than 23% higher than the AM peak hour volumes. Furthermore, the difference between existing AM and PM peak hour traffic volumes at this location is greater than the volume that would be added by the commuter rail station. Therefore, the PM peak hour is the worst - case condition for determining the off -site and site - access transportation improvements needed to accommodate the commuter rail station. Afternoon commuter rail service would operate from 4:00 to 8:00 P.M. The estimated mode -split percentages and number of vehicle trips for the afternoon period are summarized in Table 1. It is recognized that the proximity of the Interurban Trail, the Boeing Longacres site, and some hotels would likely result in some walk and bicycle trips to and from the station site. However, since there are few residences within walking or bicycling distance, Sound Transit has not forecast regular walk or bicycle commuter trips to the station. In order to represent a worst -case condition for vehicular traffic impacts and offsite traffic mitigation, no walk or bicycle trips to the station were assumed for this analysis. Since all of the transit and some of the reverse commute patrons would board buses after arriving at the station in the afternoon, it was assumed that two vehicle trips (one bus in, and one bus out) would be generated for every 12 reverse commute and transit/bus patrons. As shown, in Table 1, the Phase 1 station is forecast to generate approximately 525 vehicle trips during the afternoon service period (4:00 to 8:00 P.M.). The total number of daily vehicle trips would be roughly double this afternoon amount or approximately 1,050 trips per day. The Phase 2 station is forecast to generate approximately 802 vehicle trips during the afternoon service period (4 :00 to 8:00 P.M.). The total number of daily vehicle trips would be roughly double this afternoon amount or approximately 1,604 trips per day. Table 1. Mode Split and Afternoon (4:00 to 8:00 P.M.)

The PM peak hour of the adjacent roadways occurs from approximately 4:15 to 5:15 P.M. During this time, two southbound commuter rail trains would arrive with approximately 41% of the peak direction afternoon ridership at the Tukwila Station (17.9% on the 4:24 P.M. train plus 23.1% on the 5:04 P.M. train). In addition, one train would depart the station northbound for Seattle with approximately 30% of the off -peak direction afternoon ridership. Although the commuter rail station would generate the most traffic between 5:00 and 6:00 P.M. (when two southbound trains would arrive with approximately 46% of the peak direction afternoon riders), the traffic volumes on adjacent roadways decrease by more than 20% after 5:15 P.M. Therefore, the 4:15 to 5:15 P.M. hour is the most appropriate for traffic impact analysis, and all analyses were performed for the street's peak hour. The percentage of commuter rail passengers arriving and departing between 4:15 and 5:15 P.M. was applied to the total afternoon vehicle trips (presented in Table 1) to determine the PM peak hour trip generation at the Tukwila Station. As summarized in Table 3, the Phase 1 station proposal would result in approximately 215 PM peak hour vehicle trips. For Phase 2, additional traffic anticipated to be generated by the Amtrak component was added. Phase 2 would result in approximately 360 PM peak hour vehicle trips. These trip generation estimates are consistent with those determined in previous traffic studies of the Tukwila Station in the Tacoma - to- Seattle Commuter Rail Draft Environmental Assessment and Environmental Checklist (Adolfson Associates, Inc., December 1997).

As would be expected, the majority of passengers would come from areas east of the station. Figure I (attached) shows the station trip distribution pattern for Phase 1 and Phase 2 conditions. As shown, approximately 8% of project trips would be destined to residential areas in north Tukwila. Over 88% would be destined to residential areas east of SR 167 such as Fairwood, Maplewood and Kent East Hill neighborhoods served by SR 515 (Benson Road) and Petrovitsky Road. The primary roadway corridors that would serve this traffic include: S 180th Street/Carr Road/SE 176th Street, Grady Way /SR 515, and S 212th Street/S 208th Street. Station trips were assigned to the roadway network according to the distribution pattern described previously. Specific site access conditions, such as the anticipated secondary access point at Strander Boulevard were considered as trips were assigned to roadways and intersections very near the station site. Figure 2 (attached) shows the total PM peak hour Phase 1 trip assignment; Figure 3 (attached) shows the total PM peak hour Phase 2 trip assignment. To evaluate the impact of the station proposal, project trips were added to the year- 2010 - without project traffic forecasts which were developed for the Tacoma -to- Seattle Commuter Rail Draft Environmental Assessment and Environmental Checklist (Adolfson Associates, Inc., December 1997). These 2010 traffic forecasts represent overall background traffic growth of more than 20% and between 1.5% and 1.8% annually from 1998. Both Phase 1 and Phase 2 project traffic impacts were evaluated with year -2010 background traffic conditions to represent a worst -case analysis. Traffic Operations Project impacts to most off -site intersections have already been evaluated as part of the SEPA process in the Tacoma -to- Seattle Commuter Rail Draft Environmental Assessment and Environmental Checklist (Adolfson Associates, Inc., December 1997). However, the exact location of the project site and its access configuration was not known. Therefore, this analysis evaluates the local impacts to intersections that would be affected by the site location and access plan. Three intersections would be affected: SR 181/S 156th Street, SR 181/S 158th Street, and SR 181/S Strander Boulevard. Level of service analysis was performed for these three intersections. Level of service (LOS) is a qualitative measure used to characterize traffic operating conditions. Six letter designations, "A" through "F," are used to define the level of service. LOS A is the best and represents good traffic operations with little or no delay to motorists. LOS F is the worst and indicates poor traffic operations with long delays. Level of service is defined in terms of delay. For signalized intersections, delay is dependent on a number of variables, including traffic volumes, lane configuration, signal cycle length, and green -time ratio for the lane group or approach in question. For unsignalized intersections, delay is based on the number of gaps in the major street traffic in which a vehicle can enter or pass through the major street. A complete description of level of service criteria for signalized and unsignalized intersections is attached. Level of service for the three signalized study area intersections was determined using procedures in the Highway Capacity Manual (Transportation Research Board. 1997 Update). LOS analysis was performed for existing, 2010- without - project, and 2010 - with - project (Phase 1 and Phase 2) conditions. Since the City of Tukwila is currently completing a channelization improvement plan for the SR 181/S Strander Boulevard intersection, all future -year analyses assume that improvement (the addition of a second northbound left -turn lane). All other analyses assume existing channelization, signal sequence, and cycle lengths (determined from recent field observation). However, phase splits were optimized. Table 4 summarizes the PM peak hour levels of service at the three study area intersections. As shown, growth in background traffic is expected to degrade operations at S 156th Street and S Strander Boulevard to LOS E. Tukwila Commuter Rail Station Transportation Analysis May 17, 1999 Page5of7 HERMON TR,AN 5PORTAr('iON However, project traffic would not degrade operations further. The SR 181/S 158th Street intersection, would be degraded by project traffic from LOS C to LOS D. This degradation would not require mitigation. LOS calculation worksheets are attached. Table 4.

Site Access As described previously, site access would occur from S 158th Street at the north end of the site, and S Strander Boulevard at the south end of the site. Access to the south would be controlled at the SR 181/S Strander Boulevard intersection and was analyzed in the previous section. Access to S 158th Street would be controlled by a stop sign at the station driveway. Analysis of the driveway indicates that all movements to S 158th Street would operate at LOS B or better. Pedestrian access to the proposed Tukwila Station would use new sidewalks along S 158th Street. Continuous sidewalks would allow improved access between the station and the Interurban Trail to the west of the site. Pedestrian underpasses would be constructed or enhanced under both the Union Pacific and Burlington Northern/Santa Fe mainline tracks. In addition, a new pedestrian underpass of the BNSF mainline would be constructed south of the transit loading area to provide access to station platforms on the east side of the tracks. Pedestrian ramps and stairways would be provided to both rail platforms and an inter -track fence would prevent pedestrians from crossing tracks at- grade. Bicycle lockers would also be provided on site. Pedestrian walkways would also be provided within the parking areas to facilitate access from parked vehicles to boarding platforms. Crosswalks of site driveways and of S 158th Street would be marked and signed. Transit The development of the Tukwila commuter rail station and subsequent regional rail service will necessitate some local feeder bus transit service. King County Metro is planning to serve the Tukwila station with approximately four routes including: 128, 154, 160/163, and 340. The following describes each route and its likely operation and impact at the Tukwila Station. Route 128 is an all -day local route operating between West Seattle and Tukwila. This route would be extended from its current terminus at Andover Park W /Baker Boulevard east to the Tukwila Station. It currently operates on 30- minute headways and is expected to generate four trips during the PM peak hour (2 in, and 2 out between 4:15 and 5:15 P.M.). Access would occur from SR 181 at either Strander Boulevard or S 158th Street. This local route would serve commuter rail riders and is not expected to generate park- and -ride demand. Route 154 is a peak - period, peak- direction route (operating northbound from 5:00 to 8:00 A.M. and southbound from 2:30 to 5:45 P.M.) that provides service between Auburn and the Boeing Industrial area on East Marginal Way. This route could be diverted to the Tukwila station. It currently operates with 30- minute headways and z ,H • W, JU 0O: co 0' W =, J WO LL N d. = W Z� I— O: Z 1—; Dpl. 0 I-; W W�.

Access would occur from SR 181 at either Strander Boulevard or S 158th Street. This local route would serve commuter rail riders and is not expected to generate park- and -ride demand. Routes 160/163 are peak - period, peak- direction routes (operating northbound from 5:45 to 8:30 A.M. and southbound from 4:00 to 7:00 P.M.) that provide service between Kent East Hill and Downtown Seattle. These routes may be combined and diverted to the Tukwila station. Each route currently operates with 30- minute headways. However, with the combination of routes service is expected to generate two trips during the PM peak hour (1 in, and 1 out between 4:15 and 5:15 P.M.). Access would occur from SR 181 at S 158th Street. These local routes would serve commuter rail riders and are not expected to generate park- and -ride demand. Route 340 is an all -day route that provides service between Burien, SeaTac, Tukwila, Renton, and Bellevue. It would be re- routed through the Boeing Longacres Facility to the Tukwila station. This route operates with 20- minute headways during peak periods and generates four trips during the PM peak hour (2 in, and 2 out between 4:15 and 5:15 P.M.). Access would occur from S 158th Street in both directions and would likely stop along S 158th Street. This route could generate some park- and -ride demand; however, due to relatively slow service on local roads, park- and -ride demand is anticipated to be very small. None of the proposed routes detailed in the Draft Sound Transit Express Bus System Implementation Plan indicate any service for Regional Express to the Tukwila Commuter Rail Station. As mitigation for new demand on local transit services, the station has been designed with a bus load/unload zone, and circulation drives to minimize conflicts with pedestrians and park- and -ride traffic. Bus stops are also anticipated on S 158th Street (on- street stop for westbound buses, a pullout for eastbound buses). Transit providers would have three access /egress options including: SR 181 /S Strander Boulevard, SR 181/S 158th Street, and Boeing - Longacres /S 158th Street. Parking As described previously, Phase 1 would construct 413 parking spaces. This level of parking supply would serve approximately 65% of the forecast year 2010 ridership. Therefore, the parking supply is expected to be adequate for the first few years of commuter rail operation. Phase 2 would add 227 parking spaces. Based on the anticipated ridership, the demand generated by Amtrak customers, and some limited car -pool or bus - transit park- and -ride demand, the parking demand may exceed the supply. Year 2010 parking demand is estimated to be between 700 and 730 vehicles. This relates to a demand that may be as much as 90 vehicles higher than the proposed supply. However, there are very few options for parking overflow. The adjacent properties located east (Boeing Longacres) and west (hotel property) of the site, include parking facilities. Overflow to these properties can be prevented through lot monitoring and enforcement. The only other option for potential parking overflow would be on- street parking. On- street parking could occur along S 158th Street (Longacres Way) and along the southern portion of Nelson Place. Overflow to these locations would likely impact existing businesses along Nelson Place that rely on right -of -way for employee and customer parking as well as truck loading. Overflow of commuter rail parking demand to on- street parking facilities could be discouraged and/or prevented through several on- street parking- demand management measures. For example, on- street parking could be restricted to four -hour parking (between 8:00 A.M. and 5:00 P.M.) using street signs. This would prevent commuters from using these spaces and would require local employees to rotate vehicles during lunch hours. This measure would necessitate parking enforcement by the City of Tukwila. The limited supply of overflow parking options, together with the management of on- street parking supplies, may constrain ridership or effect mode shifts for commuter rail passengers arriving at the site (i.e. passengers could choose to carpool or ride local- feeder buses to the station). Sound Transit will continue to work to meet the ridership demands of the station. Future increases could be met through a combination of demand management measures and increased parking supply.

Sound Transit will work with Tukwila and other local agencies and jurisdictions to encourage carpool, bus, and non - motorized access to commuter rail stations; thereby reducing the station's parking demand. Concurrency Impact Fees City of Tukwila Ordinance No. 1769 implements concurrency requirements of RCW Ch. 36.70A. This ordinance requires all proposals needing a Type 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 decision and that will generate more than 5 peak hour trips to submit a trip generation and distribution analysis. Based on that analysis (presented above), the City requests mitigation, in the form of impact fees, for specified intersections or corridors. Concurrency impact fees were estimated based on the project trip distribution and assignments presented previously. The City of Tukwila provided trip fees for nine intersections and links. Table 5 presents the trip fee calculation. This table shows that the total fee for Phase 1 would be $84,168. The additional fee for Phase 2 would be $54,881 for a total of $139,049. Table 5.

Comment 1. Table 1 should be corrected to show 640 trips for auto /park for Phase 2. This correction will necessitate revising Tables 3, 4 and 5 and Figures 2 and 3 accordingly. Comment 2. No additional comment Comment 3. Jurisdictional responsibility for mitigation of parking overflow is not addressed. The transportation analysis indicates there are very few options for parking overflow. However, properties such as Boeing Longacres, Embassy Suites, Puget Sound Energy and the existing roadway shoulders offer areas for overflow parking to occur. Parking management measures such as private lot monitoring, employee vehicle rotation, No Parking signs, and enforcement are all measures that should be mitigated by the project. The project applicant should provide mitigation measures which would be implemented based on thresholds for parking and ridership being exceeded for the respective project phases. (note: we have a current overflow parking problem @ the Interurban park- and -ride; overflow parking on the adjacent side streets and the golf course parking lot have been signed with parking time limits and the problems remain in terms of monitoring, enforcement, and safety). Comment 4. The Heffron transportation analysis indicates LOS F with a queue of 258 feet for the 169 westbound right turns on Longacres Way at West Valley Highway for 2010 full project condition. At 5 156 Street and West Valley Highway, the analysis indicates LOS C with a queue of 38 feet for west bound right turns for 2010 full project conditions. Likewise, southbound left turns on West Valley Highway at Longacres Way (27 left turns) and 5 156 Street are LOS F with a queue of 195 feet and LOS C with a queue of 30 feet, respectively for 2010 full project conditions. For the 169 westbound right turns, the differences between the Longacres /W Valley and Nelson Place /5 156 St routes are 2 signals versus a stop sign and signal respectively. The travel time difference between the 2 routes is not significantly different. The analysis indicates that 166 of the 169 right turn trips are destined northbound on West Valley Highway from the intersection at 5 156 Street. The right turn queue and delay on Longacres Way will encourage use of Nelson Place and 5 156 Street for northbound related trips. The analysis also indicates 26 southbound trips on West Valley Highway at 5 156 Street destined for the project site. The southbound left turn at 5 156 Street is protected /permissive and the southbound left turn at Longacres is protected. The left turn queue and delay at Longacres will encourage use of 5 156 St and Nelson Place for southbound related trips. Comment 5. The transportation analysis and Draft EA are vague regarding the extent of the off -site improvements to be provided by the project. More specifically related to safety and pedestrian /bicycle facilities. The analysis needs to address bicycle connectivity to and from the project site including the Interurban Trail crossing on Longacres Way; on- street including lane widths, off - street including sidewalk widths, other. The analysis should include specific off -site improvements from the project site to West Valley Highway on Longacres Way, Nelsen Place, and Strander Blvd. These improvements include pavement widening, pavement overlay, curb and gutter, sidewalks, drainage, Street lighting, channelization, signing. Comment 6. Table 5 should be revised per comment 1. Comment 7. LOS analysis should be provided for the intersections at Southcenter Blvd /Grady Way /Interurban Avenue and Southcenter Blvd /66 Avenue South. The analysis indicates trip distribution of 192 and 10 at those intersections respectively. (Note: Level of Service Definitions Section, Table 1 appears to be in error with 10 seconds missing between LOS C and D.) Comment S. No additional comment. Comment 9. See comment 5.

Also, the Tukwila Arts Commission offered invaluable insight. The following proposed "art zones ", that are the focus of this proposal, are a result of this free and substantive exchange of ideas. ART ZONE # 1 - Pedestrian Tunnel ( "Y2Kwila Tunnel ") The pedestrian tunnel passing under the tracks will be a special environment featuring a sound collage, custom lighting and unique concrete paving. The - initial concept for the tunnel environment was created by the project artist. The subsequent development of the environment design has significantly involved the project architect and lighting consultants. The lighting will consist of low walkway light fixtures, two parallel and tunnel- length rows of custom designed florescent light fixtures suspended from each side of the curved ceiling and twenty "jelly jar" light fixtures eccentrically located and attached to the curved ceiling between the florescent fixtures. The ceiling will be "washed" in red light from the inside - facing florescent tubes by casting light through red plastic sleeves. The "jelly jar" globes (vandal resistant polycarbonate) will be three colors: blue, red and green. The orientation and location of the fixtures will be playful and some will have guards. The tunnel walkway and "curb" will be lightly and heavily exposed aggregate concrete, respectively. The aggregate will be railroad -type ballast rock. Eight.speakers will be hidden within the tunnel - length run of one side of the florescent fixtures. These speakers, which will be connected to a four - channel, sound collage playback device in the communications building, will be positioned eight -feet apart in an A- B- C- D- A -B -C -D sequence. As pedestrians walk through they will hear either one speaker or the overlap of two speakers at any one time. The content of the sound collage will be short sequences of vocal or activity sounds of animals and humans with an emphasis on the wide range of languages and accents that are now heard in Tukwila. The mood of the collage will be one of introspection on this momentous time in Tukwila's history. Each of the four channels of the playback device, which will cycle every 180 seconds, will consist of sound "events" separated by silence. The cycles will slowly work out of phase to constantly create new combinations and overlaps of silence and sound. The sound collage will be a collaboration between the Project Artist and Seattle sound artist and engineer, Alex Keller. They will record and collect as wide a sampling of sounds as possible, possibly with the help of Tukwila volunteers.

This type of steel forms a layer of reddish brown oxidation (rust) that then protects the steel from further oxidation. The sculpture will sit in a landscaped bed which in turn sits in the center of a narrow arm of the paved central plaza and separates the bus and "kiss & ride" area from the parking lot area. The sculpture will consist of seven vertical panels, connected edge to edge in a zig zag arrangement, each panel five feet wide and varying in height from 22 1/2 feet to ground level. The overall length of the sculpture is 34 feet. The top edge profile of the panels will be the line made by the Duamish and Green Rivers from Elliot Bay to its headwaters as seen on a map and then turned upright. The sculpture will sit comfortably in the landscape with a composition of native plants the full length of both sides, designed by the landscape architect, that corresponds to that stretch of river area where they grow naturally. Their arrangement, from naturalistic to ordered, will reflect the changing contour of the river from "natural" to man -made. z lcz. ,mow 6_. -J C):. 0 0: co 0 co ca: J w 0. 2 ga = a. • z I-o •.z Di Do wi 'o -: ww H -.. . 0: LL- o: .z =. z Note: The landscape will be prepared and installed by the General Contractor.

Sounder staff have checked the designs to ensure that canopy coverage will be available for all riders waiting at the stations. In order to make this assessment, we have compared the expected train boardings for the maximum -load a.m. peak inbound train against the preliminary platform designs. The following assumptions apply: • Ridership forecasts for completion of the Sound Move Plan (2006-2007). • Ridership estimates for year 2020 from the 5309 report to the FI A and the EIS documents now in review. • Six inbound trains from Lakewood resulting in 25% of the ridership on the fullest train (7:40 arrival at King St.) • Four inbound trains from Everett resulting in 35% of the ridership on the fullest train (7:45 arrival at King St.) • Standing room of 5 square feet per person for waiting space as a minimum; all of the station designs are also adequate at a more generous 7 square feet per person. • Current designs for canopy size and shape from the 30% design submittals on six of the seven Tacoma -to -Seattle stations. • Canopy area reduction of 5% to account for columns (where applicable) and fare machines. • Canopy area reduction of 25% at King St. to account for stairways, elevators, columns, fare machines, and other station furniture. The attached table shows that all station designs provide significantly more weather coverage than required for the waiting passengers. Furthermore, all stations, as currently designed, allow for increased canopy coverage in the future, at such time as the 2020 ridership estimates are exceeded. PWP:rh illU"'rvPD. RANS0 " November 16, 1998 Mr. Steve Lancaster, Director Community Development Department City of Tukwila 6300 Southcenter Boulevard Tukwila, Washington 98188 Dear Steve: Avg NOV 1 8 1998 DEVELOP U1 V DEVELOP / ENT Thank you for the opportunity to meet with you, your staff and your consultant on November 6 to discuss Crandall Arambula's review of the preliminary design for the Tukwila commuter rail station. The presentation by Don Arambula was insightful and very informative. We appreciate the City of Tukwila's prompt review and feedback on our preliminary design. We've asked our design team to review the Crandall Arambula memo and drawings. Their comments are incorporated in to our response to the suggested changes. Our comments are organized in order of the items listed in the memo. 1. REMOVAL OF PARK -AND -RIDE SPACES ALONG STRANDER BOULEVARD AND REPLACEMENT WITH OFFICE DEVELOPMENT. We agree that his revision would be beneficial to the station and the city in that it provides an opportunity for transit oriented development to connect the station with the community. The exact location of the future alignment of the Strander Boulevard extension is not known. The City of Renton and the City of Tukwila have discussed various options, but an alignment has not been selected. Because of this, we propose to identify an area of approximately one acre at the southernmost end of our property as "reserved for future office development." This area could serve as temporary parking, construction staging, etc. until such time as a developer or development partner was found to develop and office building at this site. As we discussed in our meeting last week, Sound Transit is not likely to build out the parking lot south of the City of Seattle's Bow Lake Pipeline in the initial construction phase. We would build the extension of Strander Boulevard to the driveway into the station parking lot and build the driveway in the initial phase, and build parking south of the pipeline in a future phase as demand increases.

RE -ORIENT PARKING AISLES, ADD 96 ADDITIONAL PARKING SPACES AND PROVIDE DIRECT PEDESTRIAN ACCESS TO PLATFORMS. We appreciate the concept behind this re -orientation and additional parking spaces could be a benefit of such an arrangement. However, we are concerned about the safety of pedestrians in this sort of parking lot layout. This layout would require passengers to walk from their cars with traffic coming up from behind them as they made their way to the platforms. We are also unsure if the parking lot layout can meet the City's code requirements for landscaping in this configuration. We will have our design team examine this layout and see if we can achieve similar benefits without jeopardizing the safety of our passengers walking between their cars and our platforms. 3. RE -ORIENT Bus TRANSFER FACILITY. This layout was designed in close coordination with King County Metro. The proposed redesign may be reasonable but needs to be discussed with King County Metro's Service Planning staff. In addition, in light of budget constraints Sound Transit is considering a reduction in the amount of space dedicated to bus transfers, layovers and other bus activity on the station site. We may redesign this area in conjunction with redesign of the 158`h Street entrance and provision of street front retail as discussed below. 4. Provide for a Transit -Supportive 10,000 Square -Foot Commercial Space on 158th Street. This is beneficial from an urban planning viewpoint, but we must ensure visibility of the station from the entrance to the site. Upon entering the station site from the west, it needs to be clear immediately to our customers how to access the commuter rail platforms. For this reason we would advocate buildings be designed to maintain visibility to the transit plaza and the platforms from the street. Consideration needs to be given to where parking for employees and loading zones will be located for the convenience retail business(es). We also need to determine if we can still provide storm water detention as required by the City on site, as Crandall Arambula's suggested revisions appear to eliminate the two ponds we had shown on our preliminary site plan. Mr. Steve Lancaster/City of Tukwila November 16, 1998 Page -3- 5. CONSTRUCT CONTINUOUS PLATFORM SHELTER. Our station budget is not going to allow us to do this. We have analyzed the amount of shelter area needed on our platforms for the peak load on the peak train and determined that the amount currently shown on the preliminary design plans is more than adequate. Our final station design wiii likely show a reduction in the amount of canopies. Please see the attached table. 6. Pedestrian Access Improvements (Pedestrian Tunnel) in Phase I. We agree that this is very important to the safety of our passengers and to the functionality of the station. As we discussed in our meeting last week, we are doing everything we can to see that the new pedestrian tunnel is implemented, along with the upgrades to the existing underpass at 158th Street, in the first phase of station development. Thank you again for the review and information provided to Sound Transit by Crandall Arambula, as well as the input from you and your staff. We look forward to continuing to work together as we move towards providing a transit facility that will meet the City of Tukwila's needs and those of the region. If you have any questions please call Val Batey at (206) 684-1591. Paul W.

Changes are suggested only for those elements that will significantly improve station area opportunities for "transit -oriented" economic development and rider safety, comfort and convenience. The suggested adjustments have benefits, impacts and cost implications that may in some instances increase the project budget while in other instances reduce the project budget or even be a source of income. The project changes would provide the greatest benefits if considered in total, however each suggested change could occur separately. 1. Removal of park -and -ride spaces along Strander Boulevard and replacement with an office development site. Proposal: • Provide a development site for office and office parking adjacent to the transit facility. A Class "B" office space and parking (@ 3 spaces/1000 S.F.) could be accommodate at this site without impacting the park and ride facility access. Benefits: • Safer station environment by providing activity adjacent to the station platform. Impacts: • The 96 outer park and ride spaces would be lost (11% of total.) However, because these spaces are located on the periphery of the park and ride facility, they would be the least desirable to transit patrons. (See analysis diagram) Costs: • Site development costs could be reduced by not constructing parking on this portion of the site. Assuming (from Tukwila Commuter Rail Station AA 4 Oct. '98) 96 proposed spaces @ approximately $2488.00/space, a saving of $238,848.00 could be realized. • Additionally a developer offering could be solicited for the remnant parcel. The income that could be generated from the sale of the property is unknown. CRANDALL A RAMBULA PC . 520 SW YAMHILL RcoF SUITE . PoRTIAND, O REGON 97204 . TELEPHONE 503 251.4080 .

Re -orient parking aisles, add 96 additional parking spaces and provide direct pedestrian access to platforms. Benefits: • Reorienting the parking lot so that the aisles are perpendicular to the platform will create a safer environment. Transit patrons will have direct views from the platform and will have shorter walk to their cars. • 96 prime parking spaces can be gained adjacent to the platform to replace 96 peripheral parking spaces. Cost: • 96 parking spaces would need to be constructed approximately at $238,848.00 (Equal to the amount on item #1) • A minimal cost increased would be required to provide pedestrian walkway access "fingers" to the transit sidewalk. 3. Re -orient the bus transfer facility Benefits: • By locating the facility adjacent to 158'h Street, the facility is less "out -of -direction" for bus routes. • The configuration provides an equal number of bus bays that are closer and more convenient to proposed transit -supportive land uses and the commuter rail transit platform. Impacts: • Would require the redesign of the "water feature" • Would require the relocation of the retention pond to an another location either on or off -site. Cost: • Cost would be equal to Sound Transit's proposed bus site plan. • Additional costs could be saved if the water feature is not constructed (approximately $120,000.00) 4. Provide for a transit -supportive 10,000 square foot commercial parcel along 158'h Street. Benefits: • A transit -oriented one story retail building that could offer goods (coffee, deli, etc.) and services (daycare) for transit riders and surrounding businesses and hotels. • Create an identity for the station. An opportunity to establish a recognizable and unique "Main Street" development. Lynn Miranda, City of Tukwila Longacres Sounder Commuter Rail Page 3 • Activity creates a more secure station platform environment. Impacts: • Would be more successful if a station area plan can be developed for the entire area between the railroad tracks. Would reduce auto visibility of the park -and -ride lot from 158th Street. • Retail development would require a shared parking arrangement with park -and -ride facility and on -street parking on 158`h Street. • Would require relocating retention facility either on or off -site. Cost: • Sale or development of the retail parcel could create income/ reduce development costs. 5. Pedestrian access improvements (underpass, walks, stairs and ramps) need to be included as part of the first phase of development. Benefits: • Would foster transit ridership by reducing walking distances from the park -and -ride lot to the northbound platform by approximately half. • A safer platform environment would be created. An escape route from trouble would be provided rather than a one entry/ exit location from the northbound station platform. Impacts: • The underpass would require additional amenities to ensure that it is safe and easy to maintain. Public art, a security camera or other similar measures might be required. Costs: • The underpass would be an additional cost item. The cost for the underpass (9'x12'x50') could be (@ $2000.00/1. f.) approximately $100,000.00 dollars. • Additional stairs, ramps and walkways would need to be constructed to the northbound station platform. 6. Construct continuous platform shelters and bus shelters rather than prescribed short canopies. Benefits: • Provides a highly functional rain and wind protection for a greater number of transit patrons. Impacts: • Would require the redesign of an identity -creating component of the station. Lynn Miranda, City of Tukwila Longacres Sounder Commuter Rail Page 4 Cost: • Unknown. Would likely be able to provide a simplified, continuous shelter at comparable cost to decorative canopies.
