SEPA This project is exempt from the State Environmental Policy Act under WAC 197 -11 -800 (2), Other minor new construction. BACKGROUND A complaint was received by Tukwila code enforcement officers in August 2008 about several trees being removed within the stream buffer located on the northwest corner of the Villages at South Station apartment complex, located at 3724 S 154th Lane (formerly known as West Colonial Village). The twelve replacement trees required for the six that were removed (per the Tree Replacement Ratios in 18.54.130 of the TMC) are included as part of the mitigation and enhancement plan (see Sheet L -2 of Exhibit A) submitted for this request. As a result of this code enforcement action, staff learned of the property owner's plans for work within the stream buffer area, including construction of a new sidewalk and associated retaining wall on the west side of the driveway to connect the apartment complex to S 154th Street, as well as installation of a new monument sign on the east side of the driveway. The proposed work to construct a monument sign and sidewalk with associated 30" retaining wall are located within the buffer of a Type III stream, which is a tributary of Gilliam Creek. The required stream buffer width for a Type III stream is 80 feet. The monument sign is proposed on the east side of the existing driveway and the new sidewalk and associated stream buffer are proposed on the west side of the driveway. The stream is located on the west side of the driveway and the buffer includes the driveway and extends beyond the driveway to the east, where the monument sign is proposed. The stream and its buffer are in a degraded state, lacking vegetation, with the exception of a JR Page 1 01'5 H: \Special Permission \Villages at South Station \L08 - 057 &- 058_Villages at South StationSR.doc 02/09/2009 9:06 AM 6300 Southcenter Boulevard, Suite #100 • Tukwila, Washington 98188 • Phone: 206 - 431 -3670 0 Fax: 206 - 431 -3665 • • few mature trees that are to be retained, as well as non - native and invasive plants. A driveway, a swimming pool, and an apartment building are currently located within the stream buffer area on the project site. The sidewalk and an associated 30" retaining wall are proposed to connect the large Villages at South Station apartment complex with S 154th Street and the Link Light Rail Station to the west. Construction of the sidewalk and the addition of new landscaping within the stream buffer area are permitted uses under section 18.45.070, Sensitive Area Permitted Uses, of the Tukwila Municipal Code (TMC). A small portion of the new sidewalk proposed, as well as landscaping along the north perimeter of the property, extends beyond the north property line into public right -of -way of S 154th Street. A right - of -way permit must be obtained from the Public Works Department for construction of the sidewalk and installation of landscaping within the public right -of -way. The new monument sign and landscaping are proposed on the east side of the driveway. The applicant is requesting the buffer be reduced by approximately 38% on the east side of the driveway to allow construction of the monument sign. Permanent impacts to the stream buffer necessary for construction of the sidewalk and retaining wall on the west side of the driveway amount to approximately 650 square feet. Permanent impacts to the stream buffer necessary for construction of the sign on the east side of the driveway amounts to approximately 40 square feet. The mitigation and enhancement plan submitted with application materials includes mitigation and enhancement for the stream buffer area at the northwest comer of the site where buffer impacts are proposed. Because only a limited number of plantings could be accommodated at the northwest corner of the site, additional enhancement is included in an area located approximately 130 feet south of S 154th Street, where the stream channel continues to the south. DECISION CRITERIA Section 18.45.070 (B) of the Environmentally Sensitive Areas section of the TMC lists the uses allowable within a sensitive area or its buffer, subject to administrative review. The landscaping proposed is a permitted use within this section of the code under number 5, Enhancement or other mitigation including landscaping with native plants. The sidewalk proposed within the stream buffer area is also a permitted use under number 7 of this section: Essential Streets, Roads and Rights -of -Way, provided it meets the following criteria: Essential streets, roads and rights -of -way must: a) Be designed and maintained to prevent erosion and avoid restricting the natural movement of groundwater. The new sidewalk will be constructed at the back of the existing curb; at the closest location possible to the existing driveway in order to cause minimal disturbance to the stream buffer. The area is already flat, as opposed to the east side of the driveway, where more grading would have to done in order to create a JR Page 2 of 5 02/05/2009 1:38 PM H: \Special Permission \Villages at South Station \L08 - 057 &- 058_Villages at South StationSR.doc • • flat area with a consistent grade for construction of a sidewalk. Erosion control measures shall be inspected prior to the start of construction to ensure that they have been installed correctly. b) Be located to conform to the topography so that the minimum alteration of natural conditions is necessary. The area in which the sidewalk is proposed is relatively flat. A minimal amount of grading will be needed for sidewalk construction. c) Be constructed in a way that does not adversely affect the hydrologic quality of the wetland, or watercourse and/or its buffer. The new sidewalk will be separated from the stream channel by new landscaping that greatly improves the vegetative cover of the area on the west side of the driveway. The new landscaping will provide stormwater retention and filtration benefits in this area where there previously was not much vegetation to provide these functions. d) Upon completion of construction, the area affected must be restored to an appropriate grade, replanted according to a plan approved by the Director, and provided with care until newly planted vegetation is established. The applicant has submitted a mitigation and enhancement plan that includes native plantings adjacent to the new sidewalk and within the entire buffer area on both the west and east sides of the driveway. As a condition of approval, the property owner or his/her representative, shall submit a photograph of the stream buffer area each year for a period of five years, to demonstrate that plantings are being maintained in a healthy condition. The monument sign is proposed on the east side of the existing driveway. The stream is located on the west side of the driveway, and includes the driveway and the area to the east of the driveway in which the monument sign is proposed for construction. In order to construct the monument sign proposed on the east side of the driveway within the stream buffer area, a reduction of the stream buffer width must be approved. TMC 18.45.100 (F) permits the Director to reduce a watercourse buffer width based upon the following criteria: a) The reduced buffer area does not contain slopes over 15%; The reduced buffer area proposed with this request does not contain slopes over 15 %. b) The buffer reduction is not greater than 50 %; The buffer reduction that is being requested is restricted to the area located on the east side of the driveway. The buffer reduction required in order to construct the monument sign in this area amounts to a 38% reduction in the buffer width. c) The buffer is vegetated and includes an enhancement plan as may be required to improve the buffer function and value; The buffer contains several mature trees, including two alders and a conifer that were originally proposed for removal. All existing trees located within the buffer JR Page 3 of 5 02/05/2009 1:38 PM H: \Special Permission \Villages at South Station \L08 - 057 &- 058_Villages at South StationSR.doc • • will be retained, and additional mitigation and enhancement plantings will be provided within the stream buffer area, to include native trees and shrubs to provide shade to the stream channel. d) If there is no significant vegetation in the buffer, a buffer may be reduced only if an enhancement plan is provided. The plan must include using a variety of native vegetation that improves the functional attributes of the buffer and provides additional protection for the watercourse functions and values. Except for the northern part of the stream buffer where there are some mature trees, the buffer does not contain significant vegetation. The applicant has prepared an enhancement plan that includes removal of invasive and non - native vegetation currently located within the stream buffer, and installation of native plantings. Additional enhancement will occur on site to the south of where buffer impacts are proposed, where the stream channel continues on the south side of the existing driveway. CONCLUSIONS 1. The proposed landscaping and sidewalk with associated 30" retaining wall are permitted uses within the stream buffer area under TMC section 18.45.070 (B). 2. There are no slopes greater than 15% within the reduced buffer areas. 3. The requested buffer reduction is less than 50 %. 4. The mitigation and enhancement plan includes mitigation for the permanent impacts to the stream buffer that will occur with construction of the sidewalk and associated 30" retaining wall, and the monument sign. The plan includes removal of invasive and non - native plants currently located within the stream buffer, as well as adding native plantings to the stream buffer area where impacts are proposed and within an additional stream buffer area to the south. Also included are replacement trees required as part of the tree clearing permit (L08 -057), for those trees that were previously removed. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends approval of the Special Permission permit with the following conditions: 1. A right -of -way permit must be obtained for any work proposed within the public right -of -way. This includes construction of a small piece of the new sidewalk where it connects to the sidewalks along S 154th Street, as well as perimeter landscaping proposed along the north side of the Villages at South Station property. Any changes to the location of the sidewalk, retaining wall, or landscaping during review of the Public Works permit shall be reviewed by the Planning Department.

Pace, Director Ray Robinson Integrated Site Design, Inc. 12743 26t Ave NE Seattle, WA 98125 Re: Comments - 15` of 5 Annual Maintenance and Monitoring Reports - Villages at South Station, 3724 S 154th Lane, Tukwila, WA Dear Mr. Robinson, The City has had a chance to review the first of five annual reports providing information on maintenance and monitoring of mitigation within a stream buffer located at 3724 S 154th Lane. In general, we agree with the information and recommendations in the report, with the following comments /changes which are organized according to the numbering of the different sections of your report. 1) Upper Sensitive Area — adjacent to 154t and along the streamway to culvert o a) and d): We agree that plant survival in this area was good. The exception that's noted under letter d is incorrect, however, since the area adjacent to the creek was never planted. Rip rap shall not be installed to prevent erosion, but instead bioengineering techniques shall be used. Jute matting or other natural material should be added adjacent to the stream, with plantings of native willow and/or native dogwood stakes added through the jute matting. o c) To control/remove the knotweed, you may provide a written request to the City for use of approved herbicides for aquatic use. These herbicides should be applied by "painting" the stems rather than spraying it on the knotweed plants. Herbicides that may be used include Rodeo, Aquamaster, and Aquapro (all are Glyphosate based herbicides, but regular Round -up is not allowed to be used this close to the stream). In addition the applicator must be licensed by the State Department of Agriculture and must comply with NPDES and the notification requirements established by Department of Ecology. Applicators are allowed to use the Ecology general NPDES permit, but must be registered with Ecology. Any landscape company that uses aquatic herbicides should be familiar with these requirements. If not, here is a link: http: / /www.ecy.wa.gov/ programs /wq /pesticides /index.html 2) Upper Sensitive Area — adjacent to north side of entry drive and pool area and south side adjacent to parking f) i, ii — Clarify whether fertilization is only for mahonia. Fertilization should be done in a way that avoids runoff into the stream. Avoid using lime with plants that prefer acidic soils (including Evergreen Huckleberry). Under ii, ISD recommends replanting per plan. The plants shown on plans in the area circled on the map and labeled (Missing Plants Re -Plant) include Evergreen Huckleberry and Japanese Barberry. 3) Upper Sensitive Area — within and adjacent to pool - no comments 6300 Southcenter Boulevard, Suite #100 • Tukwila, Washington 98188 • Phone 206 - 431 -3670 • Fax: 206- 431 -3665 4) Upper Sensitive Area — south side of mailbox cluster c) See comments under "Recommendations for Maintenance" related to approved herbicides for removal of horsetail. f) Cedars were originally planted in this area, but were replaced with Douglas Firs because they did not survive. Our recommendation is to keep the Douglas Firs and prune back the branches or prune up the trunks as needed to avoid impacting the mail boxes instead of using the Hogan Cedars as originally planned, since the Douglas Firs are in good condition. No topping of any trees is allowed. Recommendations for Maintenance 8) 2. In most areas, fertilization should not be needed since plantings were native to the Pacific Northwest: The limited fertilization that is done should be done in a way that avoids runoff into the stream. Avoid using lime with plants that prefer acidic soils, including Evergreen Huckleberry. 4. Approved herbicides are the following: Rodeo, Aquamaster, and Aquapro (all are Glyphosate based herbicides, but regular Round -up is not allowed to be used this close to the stream). To control/remove the knotweed, you may provide a written request to the City for use of approved herbicides for aquatic use. These herbicides should be applied by "painting" the stems rather than spraying it on the knotweed plants. In addition the applicator must be licensed by the State Department of Agriculture and must comply with NPDES and the notification requirements.established by Department of Ecology.

If not, here is a link: http: / /www.ecy.wa.gov /programs /wq /pesticides /index.html Next Steps: Make changes to the landscaping on site according to the report and the comments above during Fall 2010. The next inspection by City staff will occur in late summer of next year, once you have submitted the second maintenance and monitoring report to the City of Tukwila.

Staff recommends adding mahonia aquifolia for alders that are removed from this area, to discourage access to the stream per item 1(h) in report. The goal of the limited pruning is to keep the stream shading but improve visibility within the stream area at S 154th Street. • A fertilizer routine may help the dogwoods located in this area. 4) Lower Sensitive Area • Add willow and /or dogwood stakes to the area adjacent to the stream • We talked about looking in to a stewardship program for this area, including potential grant funding and volunteer work to enhance the stream buffer area on the property. Maintenance and pruning should be ongoing as needed. The willow and /or dogwood stakes should be added this winter or early spring, since they can only be harvested when the plants are dormant. You can harvest some of the dogwood stakes from existing plants on site that you will be pruning in the stream area. If you are planning to use any herbicide within sensitive areas and their buffers, please submit a written request to Jack Pace, Community Development Director and we can provide a list of approved herbicides. Please let me know if you have any questions.

Staff recommends adding mahonia aquifolia for alders that are removed from this area, to discourage access to the stream per item 1(h) in report. The goal of the limited pruning is to keep the stream shading but improve visibility within the stream area at S 154th Street. • A fertilizer routine may help the dogwoods located in this area. 4) Lower Sensitive Area • Add willow and /or dogwood stakes to the area adjacent to the stream • We talked about looking in to a stewardship program for this area, including potential grant funding and volunteer work to enhance the stream buffer area on the property. Maintenance and pruning should be ongoing as needed. The willow and /or dogwood stakes should be added this winter or early spring, since they can only be harvested when the plants are dormant. You can harvest some of the dogwood stakes from existing plants on site that you will be pruning in the stream area. If you are planning to use any herbicide within sensitive areas and their buffers, please submit a written request to Jack Pace, Community Development Director and we can provide a list of approved herbicides. Please let me know if you have any questions.

In general, we agree with the information and recommendations in the report, with the following comments /changes which are organized according to the numbering of the different sections of your report. 1) Upper Sensitive Area — adjacent to 154`h and along the streamwav to culvert o a) and d): We agree that plant survival in this area was good. The exception that's noted under letter d is incorrect, however, since the area adjacent to the creek was never planted. Rip rap shall not be installed to prevent erosion, but instead bioengineering techniques shall be used. Jute matting or other natural material should be added adjacent to the stream, with plantings of native willow and/or native dogwood stakes added through the jute matting. o c) To control/remove the knotweed, you may provide a written request to the City for use of approved herbicides for aquatic use. These herbicides should be applied by "painting" the stems rather than spraying it on the knotweed plants. Herbicides that may be used include Rodeo, Aquamaster, and Aquapro (all are Glyphosate based herbicides, but regular Round -up is not allowed to be used this close to the stream). In addition the applicator must be licensed by the State Department of Agriculture and must comply with NPDES and the notification requirements established by Department of Ecology. Applicators are allowed to use the Ecology general NPDES permit, but must be registered with Ecology. Any landscape company that uses aquatic herbicides should be familiar with these requirements. If not, here is a link: http: / /www.ecy.wa.gov/ programs /wq /pesticides /index.html 2) Upper Sensitive Area — adjacent to north side of entry drive and pool area and south side adjacent to parking f i, ii — Clarify whether fertilization is only for mahonia. Fertilization should be done in a way that avoids runoff into the stream. Avoid using lime with plants that prefer acidic soils (including Evergreen Huckleberry). Under ii, ISD recommends replanting per plan. The plants shown on plans in the area circled on the map and labeled (Missing Plants Re -Plant) include Evergreen Huckleberry and Japanese Barberry. 3) Upper Sensitive Area — within and adjacent to pool - no comments 6300 Southcenter Boulevard, Suite #100 • Tukwila. Washington 98188 • .Phone 206 -431 -3670 • Fax: 206- 431 -3665 4) Upper Sensitive Area — south side of mailbox cluster c) See comments under "Recommendations for Maintenance" related to approved herbicides for removal of horsetail. f) Cedars were originally planted in this area, but were replaced with Douglas Firs because they did not survive. Our recommendation is to keep the Douglas Firs and prune back the branches or prune up the trunks as needed to avoid impacting the mail boxes instead of using the Hogan Cedars as originally planned, since the Douglas Firs are in good condition. No topping of any trees is allowed. Recommendations for Maintenance 8) 2. In most areas, fertilization should not be needed since plantings were native to the Pacific Northwest. The limited fertilization that is done should be done in a way that avoids runoff into the stream. Avoid using lime with plants that prefer acidic soils, including Evergreen Huckleberry. 4. Approved herbicides are the following: Rodeo, Aquamaster, and Aquapro (all are Glyphosate based herbicides, but regular Round -up is not allowed to be used this close to the stream). To control /remove the knotweed, you may provide a written request to the City for use of approved herbicides for aquatic use. These herbicides should be applied by "painting" the stems rather than spraying it on the knotweed plants. In addition the applicator must be licensed by the State Department of Agriculture and must comply with NPDES and the notification requirements established by Department of Ecology. Applicators are allowed to use the Ecology general NPDES permit, but must be registered with Ecology. Any landscape company that uses aquatic herbicides should be familiar with these requirements. If not, here is a link: http : / /www.ecy.wa.gov /programs/wq /pesticides /index.html Next Steps: Make changes to the landscaping on site according to the report and the comments above during Fall 2010. The next inspection by City staff will occur in late summer of next year, once you have submitted the second maintenance and monitoring report to the City of Tukwila.

Application materials were routed to the Planning and Public Works departments. Your next step will be to resubmit plans to address the comments below. You can contact Jaimie Reavis at (206) 431 -3659 or jreavis @ci.tukwila.wa.us with any questions. PLANNING DEPARTMENT COMMENTS 1) Tree #'s 1, 2, and 3, as shown in the tree replacement table on Sheet L -0 shall not be removed. Retaining these trees means the number of required replacement trees for the tree clearing permit is reduced to 10. Five of these trees can be accommodated at the back of the new sidewalk. The other five trees should be native species, and placed in the area south of the mailboxes where the stream channel continues. Suggested trees include Shore pine (pinus contorta var. contorta) and Vine maple (acer circinatum), since these are less likely to have wide- spreading roots than other conifers. 2) Indicate on plans which trees are replacement trees for those that were /will be removed. 3) Monument sign shall be located on the east side of the existing entry drive, outside the 40- foot reduced buffer area, or other location outside of stream buffer area. Please show the proposed location on plans. 4) Please indicate on plans the proposed height of the retaining wall. 5) Per our conversation on 12/1/2008, the trees shown on Sheet L -2 with a dashed line around them - that were not shown as proposed for removal on sheet L -0 - will not to be removed. 6) See redlined Landscape Plan (sheet L -2) for suggested changes to the types and locations of buffer enhancement plantings. Please revise plans according to recommendations. A summary of the suggested changes is below: Enhancement Plan: • Remove Japanese knotweed — recommend injecting stems with Aquamaster or other herbicide approved for aquatic use.

Jamie, I checked on your questions. Here are the answers: 1) Pipe shown in pictures you sent over this morning. This has been there for over two years (length of time our longest serving maintenance person has been there). The site staff examined it and believes it is tied to the downspout of the adjacent building. 2) Pool is believed to drain to the sewer. In the pumphouse is what looks like a catch basin. It has a cover that reads "drain" on it. You and your colleagues are welcome to introduce yourselves to either Sarah or Jade in our leasing office and they would be happy to provide you access to the pool pump house. I believe this addresses your remaining staff report items. Please let us know if you have any further comments and if not include me by email if you could with a copy of the report.

Currently at issue is a that a drainage pipe was identified extending from the apartment complex to the drainage swale....once identified as to what it is, then the suggested mitigation action will be included in the permit response back to us. am also including plant lists...these are what was submitted on 9 -29 -2008, sheet L-4), and includes the acronym, as well as quantity, botanic /common name, spacing, size. Also discussed, was that you would allow us to complete plantings adjacent to Club House now, provided that they did not lie within the 160' required stream buffer. I am sending attached a pdf of the L -2 plan showing the minimum 80' buffer, and the required 160' buffer, and an indication of the planting areas that we would like to proceed with now. 98% of the proposed plants are outside the buffer if possible, we would like to also plant the 2% that are within the buffer.

Be specific in describing the types of changes you want made to the plans. When referencing codes, please identify the actual requirement and plan change needed. The Planning Division review does not supplant each department's ability to administer its own regulations and permits. However, project consistency at the Planning review stage is important to minimize significant later design changes. More than minimal design changes require further Planning Commission review, even if alteration is required to satisfy a City requirement. This further review is typically a minimum 60 -day process. Requirements based on SEPA (e.g., not required by an adopted development regulation) MUST identify the impact being mitigated, the policy basis for requiring mitigation, and the method used to calculate the mitigation required. Calculations of project impacts and the mitigation required (e.g., water capacity, road level of service analyses, or turning analyses) may be required of the applicant.
