Background
MEMORANDUM
To: The Committee of the Whole
From: Steve Lancaster, DCD Director
Date: June 3, 2003
Re: Proposed Code Amendments, File Number L03 -010
On March 10 and 25, 2003 Community Affairs and Parks Committee was briefed on the four
proposed code amendments. Planning Commission held a public hearing on April 24, 2003 and
further discussed the four proposed code amendments on May 22, 2003. In the four sections
below, we have described each proposed amendment and provided the Planning Commission's
recommendation. Also attached are three separate ordinances; one addressing sign code changes,
second one addresses height issue in LDR/PRO zones, and the third one addresses auto rentals
and self- storage facilities.
A. Update Sign Code regulations dealing with animated signage.
On March 17, 2003, the City Council established a six -month moratorium on electronic signs for
the purposes of development of policy and associated code changes. The Planning Commission
was presented with two policy options, one was to ban the animated signs but allow electronic
signs, the other was to ban electronic signs altogether. They decided to ban animated signs but
allow electronic signs and restrict the maximum brightness levels.
Following code changes have been incorporated in the attached ordinance that implements the
Planning Commission's recommendations:
Definition of an animated sign has been changed to reflect the current technology and
changes in the sign display more than once every 24 hours are considered animation. Also,
the message content that is strictly limited to time, date or temperature but would change
more than once a day shall not be considered animation.
6300 Southcenter Boulevard, Suite #100 Tukwila, Washington 98188 Phone: 206- 431 -3670 Fax: 206 -431 -3665
An electronic sign has been defined and the maximum levels have been set for brightness.
Daytime maximum brightness levels shall be 5,000 nits and nighttime levels shall be 500
nits. Nits are an intemationaI unit of luminous intensity per projected area and are the
common units used to measure brightness levels for LED signs. Luminance may be described
in units of Candelas per square meter, or nits. The LED signs also have a contrast setting that
is defined as brightness of the white level divided by brightness of the black level. Two
identical signs set at the same Nit level can create two different effects by using different
contrast levels. The maximum brightness levels have been set at the lower end to account for
any manipulation of the contrast value to circumvent the brightness restrictions. Also, all
signs shall be required to have an ambient light monitor that will automatically adjust the
brightness level based on ambient light conditions. For non -LED signs that use incandescent
lamps, such lamps shall be no more than 15 watts.
Holographic displays that create three- dimensional image through projection along with the
animated signs have been listed under the prohibited signs section.
B. Increase the allowed height for structures located in the Low Density Residential
Zone where a Public Recreation Overlay applies.
The proposal for an increased height allowance within the LDR/PRO district was initiated by
staff in response to an agreement between the City of Tukwila and Starfire Sports for
redevelopment of Fort Dent Park. Starfire's intent is to improve several outdoor soccer fields and
build an athletic center containing two indoor soccer fields and ancillary facilities. Due to
clearance issues for the indoor fields, the facility cannot be built within the existing 30 -foot
height limitation. In its contract with Starfire, the City agreed to consider amending the zoning
code in order to accommodate the project.
Initially staff proposed an additional height allowance in the LDR/PRO district of 1 foot for
every 3 feet of excess setback, up to a maximum height of 80 feet. Planning Commission
members expressed concern over the potential impacts on surrounding properties. It was
suggested that staff consider holding maximum height to 45 feet, and that Board of Architectural
Review approval be required for any structures over 30 feet in height. Upon further review, staff
recommended that a maximum height of 50 feet with a reduced bonus ratio of 1 to 4 (rather than
1 to 3). Under this standard, a building would have to be set back 85 to 100 feet from all property
lines to achieve the maximum height of 50 feet. (For your information, the proposed Fort Dent
athletic center would be more than 300 feet from the nearest property line.) Also, staff suggested
that design review be required for structures over 30 feet except that the City Council may
approve a height bonus for structures that are subject to final construction approval by the City
Council (e.g. public or quasi- public facilities owned or otherwise controlled by the City of
Tukwila). However Planning Commission recommended design review for all structures above
30 feet in height.
The following changes have been incorporated in the ordinance:
2
When the underlying district in the PRO district is the LDR Low Density Residential district,
structures may be granted a height bonus of one (1) additional foot of height for every four
(4) feet of excess setback (i.e., setback over and above the LDR minimum standard), up to a
maximum height of fitly (50) feet. Structures for which a height bonus is requested shall be
subject to Board of Architectural Review under the "Commercial and Light Industrial Design
Review Criteria" provisions of Chapter 18.60.
As requested by CAP, an illustration of this height allowance has been attached to this memo.
C. Add automobile and truck rentals as separate land use categories in the Zoning Code.
The zoning code does not mention automobile or truck rentals as a use category. In the past we
have allowed auto rentals in any zone that allowed auto sales (RC, RCM, TUC, C/LI, LI, HI,
TVS). The Planning Commission agreed with CAP that companies renting vehicles not requiring
a commercial driver's license (including cars, sport utility vehicles, mini -vans, recreational
vehicles, cargo vans, trucks and some flat beds) be allowed in those zones where the sales of
automobiles, recreational vehicles, travel trailers and used cars are currently allowed (i.e., RC,
RCM, TUC, C/LI, LI, HI and TVS). However, the Planning Commission stated that they wish to
also include the MIC/L and MIC/H zones in this group.
The Planning Commission also agreed with CAP that commercial truck and fleet rentals
requiring a commercial driver's license be allowed in those zones where sales and rental of heavy
machinery and equipment are currently allowed (i.e., C/LI, LI, HI, MIC/L, MIC/H and TVS).
Staff has included Planning Commission's recommendation to include rental of vehicles not
requiring commercial driver's license in MIC/H and MIC/L zones along with other zones that
currently allow vehicle sales.
Following changes have been incorporated in the attached ordinance:
Rental of vehicles not requiring a commercial driver's license (including automobiles, sport
utility vehicles, mini -vans, recreation vehicles, cargo vans and certain trucks) are listed as
permitted use in the RC, RCM, TUC, C/LI, LI, HI, MIC/L, MIC/H and TVS zones.
Rental of commercial trucks and fleet rentals requiring a commercial driver's license is listed
as permitted use in C/LI, LI, HI, MIC/L, MIC/H and TVS zones.
D. Add self storage as a land use category in the Zoning Code
The Zoning Code does not mention "self- storage" as a use category. In the past we have allowed
self storage in any zone that allowed warehouse storage (RC, RCM, TUC, C/LI, LI, HI, MIC/L,
MIC/H and TVS). However the characteristics of these two uses are somewhat different. Self-
3
storage tends to have smaller, sometimes multi story, generating fewer truck trips and often
having an appearance more compatible with office or commercial surroundings than warehouse
storage.
CAP expressed some concern about the appearance of self storage facilities and lack of
pedestrian activity generated by this type of use. Pedestrian- oriented uses and development will
be studied during the development of the Tukwila Urban Center Plan. However, Design Review
is already required, as follows, for new developments in the following zones:
in RC, RCM, TUC, C/LI and TVS for all structures larger than 1,500 square feet in size.
in C/LI, LI, HI, MIC/L, MIC/H and TVS for all structures within 300 feet of residential
districts or 200 feet of the Duwamish.
in HI for all structures over 45 feet in height.
CAP suggested that "self- storage" be listed as an outright permitted use in any zone that
currently allows warehouse storage. The Planning Commission agreed with cap suggestion and
requested that a definition for "self- storage" be provided. The attached ordinance incorporates the
following changes:
Self Storage Facility has been defined as a building designed and used for the purpose of
renting or leasing individual indoor storage space to customers who are to have access to the
space for the purpose of storing or removing personal property on a self service basis.
It has been listed as a permitted use in RC, RCM, TUC, C/LI, LI, HI, MIC/L, MIC/H, and
TVS zones.
Summary
Staff will incorporate any revisions to the proposed ordinances that the Council may suggest
following their discussion. Public hearing is scheduled for June 23, 2003. The Council could then
adopt the ordinances at the special meeting scheduled on the day of the hearing.

1. Freedman. Tung and Bottomlev Design Review Contract A contract similar to this one
was at the committee's last meeting. The Freedman, Tung and Bottomley firm will most likely
be awarded the contract to study the Tukwila Urban Center and Transit Oriented Development.
This contract at committee this week is a separate contract in the amount of 549,405 that would
include design review of the Westfield Mall at Southcenter and Penney's Warehouse
developments. Steve said adding these major projects will give the City the best chance of
coordinating the total development of the TUC. It will create some efficiencies to work on both
of these contracts, as they can talk to the Mall and Penny's site developers at the same time
they're up here talking to other land owners. It is a time and materials contract. Funding will
come from DCD's 2003 professional services budget. The TUC /TOD study is being funded by
a grant.
One of the things that will be studied is the best use of land in particular areas of the CBD.
Transportation will be a part of decisions about uses. Steve talked about possible restrictions on
the large -scale plans at the Mall and Penney's. The largest problem may be the wetlands that are
on a part of the Penney's 19 -acre site. Circulations through the TUC will be part of the study.
Joan asked how the Mall and Penney's could affect the TUC redevelopment plans. Steve pointed
to several corners of the Mall site, saying what was developed at the Mall could affect the
intersections and adjoining spaces. The committee also asked if Michael Freedman will have
enough time for both contracts. Steve thought he would, especially by working on the two
contracts together. Recommend contract to Regular Meeting for discussion and adoption.
2. Proposed Comprehensive Plan Amendments Nora and Steve led the committee through
the five draft amendments being proposed. The first was to increase the allowed height for public
facilities in Low Density Residential (LDR) zones. Nora said public buildings from the
community center to Thorndyke school have had problems meeting the current 30' height limit.
Staff proposed allowing taller buildings if the public building had larger setbacks from their
property lines. The current issue is that Starfire wants the grandstand at Fort Dent with a roof
covering, to be larger than 30'. Thus far buildings that need to be higher have gone through the
variance procedure, but that decision is made by the hearing examiner, and is generally not
favored as an ongoing way to do business. Examples of the types of buildings that would be
allowed higher rooftops were given as public facilities such as community centers, schools, and
recreation centers. The committee wanted to know what else could be included if they approved
the height increase in LDR, and if any undesirable uses could benefit from this. Because Starfire
has said this is one deal maker they really need, the question was raised whether Starfire is a
public or private facility and whether they could benefit from this even if the height change were
made to the code.
A second issue was recommended by the City Attorney, and addressed definition changes of
"lot" and "site The committee had no comments on that proposal.
The third issue was where to allow automobile rentals as a use in the zoning code. Because the
city code does not address this, businesses want to put rental sites in NCC, for example. The
committee first said to separate truck rentals and sales from car rentals and sales. One of their
proposals is to allow car rentals where car sales are allowed. However, whether they would fit in
the TUC or RC was debatable. Staff will work on this issue before the next meeting.
A fourth issue was adding mini storage to the zoning code. Again, staff has generally allowed
them where warehouses are allowed in the city, which includes RC and TUC. Whether self
storage buildings would be good in those zones was questioned. RC, RM and TUC have design
review, so units could look better than a normal warehouse, but they would be the same kinds of
warehouse storage as everywhere else in the industrial or manufacturing zones. Staff said this is
a popular business now, since it costs little to put up the buildings, and little maintenance is
needed, with a good revenue stream resulting from the buildings. Staff will also work on this
issue.
The final proposal was about animated signs, which are becoming more popular with sign
makers. The Grand Casino has a sign that could be animated, though staff told them that would
be illegal under our current code. The committee talked about the frequency of sign changes,
agreeing that the signs on I -5 near Fife are distracting and generally bad. This is one issue where
action is needed fairly quickly, as companies want flashing signs and our code only addresses old
technology, not current LED and electronic lights. Reschedule.
3. Grandmother's Hill Grant Bruce asked the committee to support staff's request for an
Interagency Committee for Outdoor Recreation (IAC) grant. He said the project fits well with the
Park and Open Space Plan of the City. The resolution is needed by April 30` The committee
supported the resolution. Recommend resolution to Regular Meeting.,

report detailing amendments to the Sign and Zoning Codes. These proposed amendments were
discussed at the committee meeting on March 10, with staff having been directed to further
refine the options for consideration. After a fair amount of discussion the committee
recommended the following policy options be referred to the Planning Commission: I. Update
the sign code language to reflect current technology while retaining existing content restrictions
and the ban on movement and flashing; II. Determine allowable building heights (for those
structures allowed in the Public Recreation Overlay) via a sliding scale which calculates height
in proportion to the building's distance from property lines; the committee also requested that
staff recommend a maximum allowable height, and that illustrative diagrams be included when
this matter comes back for Council deliberation; III. Add automobile and truck rentals as
separate use categories in the Zoning Code; that companies renting vehicles not requiring a
commercial driver's license (including cars, sport utility vehicles, mini -vans, recreation vehicles,
cargo vans, trucks and some flat bed) be allowed in those zones where the sales of automobiles,
recreations vehicles, travel trailers and used cars are currently allowed, irther, that commercial
truck and fleet rentals requiring a commercial driver's license be allowed in those zones where
sales and rental of heavy machinery and equipment are currently allowed. IV. Add self storage
as a use category in the zoning code, and that "self- storage" or "mini- storage" be allowed as an
outright permitted use in any zone (i.e. RC, RCM, TUC, C /LI, LI, HI, MIC /L, MICH, and TVS);
that currently allows warehouse storage.
2. Other Joe inquired as to what could be done to prohibit the ongoing car sales on residential
streets. Staff will pursue options with City Attorney and MSRC and report back to committee.
Dennis questioned parking requirements for some of the big box stores such as Home Depot
and Lowe's, and how outdoor storage has affected those stores' compliance with zoning
requirements. Steve responded that in many cases those establishments have excess parking and
have made business decisions to use the extra parking spaces for storage rather than for customer
parking. In some cases this has resulted in available parking being temporarily reduced below the
minimum specified by the Zoning Code. We may revisit this issue of parking minimums and
outdoor sales /storage as part of the Tukwila Urban Center plan update.
Joan and Jim asked if anything could be done about the "Human Signs" i.e. people wearing
sandwich boards advertising businesses and waving to passers -by. Steve noted a recent court
case in which the City of Bremerton's prohibition against such signs was upheld. We will
continue to monitor that case as it wends through the appeal process.

REQUEST: Conditional Use permit for a rooftop wireless facility.
LOCATION: 1224 Andover Park East
Bill Arthur made a declaration, he stated his spouse and daughter are employed by competitors of T- mobileNoicestream.
He stated his objectivity would not be effected and asked if anyone objected to him participating in the hearing?
Justin Abbot for the applicant had no objections to Commissioner Arthur hearing the case.
Minnie Dhaliwal gave the presentation for staff. Staff recommends approval of the Conditional Use Permit with the
following conditions:
1. The fiberglass screening around the antennas must be painted to match the existing building.
2. Prior to issuance of construction permit, applicant shall provide a letter from the owner stating the easement to the
Railroad Company has been rescinded.
Prior to the hearing the applicant submitted a letter to staff regarding the easement to the Railroad Company, which was
passed around among the Commissioners for review.
After the easement to the Railroad Company was discussed at some length Commissioner Meryhew suggested the City
Attorney should review the documentation that was submitted.
Justin Abbott, for the applicant, commented on the easement issue stating when the property was purchased the rail road
tracks had been removed. He stated an attorney had reviewed the title report and declared the rights had ceased. Mr. Abbot
continued with an overview of the project. Mr. Abbott explained that he had construction drawings that were more detailed
then the zoning drawings that the Commission received in their packets. The construction drawings show an additional
access ladder that will be located within the fenced area. This addition is necessary because the ladder physically inside of
the structure does not meet required standards. The maintenance crew will use the ladder to gain access to the antennas to do
maintenance once a month. Mr. Abbott also answered questions for the Commission,
There were no further comments.

the options that City Council forwarded to the Planning Commission for consideration.
There was no one present that wished to give testimony.

Public Hearing closed by Chair Whisler.
The Commission deliberated.
There was extensive discussion on the proposed Code Amendments. The Commissioners deemed it necessary to have a
definition of self storage before they could make a decision on the self storage code. The Planning Commission decided car
and truck rentals should also be allowed in the MIC/L and MIC/H zones. They were particularly concerned with the potential
of 80 -ft. structures in a residential area. They were also strongly opposed to animated signs and the consensus was to
continue the ban currently in effect.
Below is the list of the proposed codes with the Planning Conunission request or recommendations. In order to complete the
Planning Commission's requirements staff will need to make some revisions and provide the Planning Commission with
some additional information.
Proposed:
Proposed:
Add self storage as a land use category in the Zoning Code

Steve Lancaster, Director of Community Development, gave an overview of each of the revised Code Amendments. Staff
recommended forwarding these proposed changes to the City Council. Mr. Lancaster also read comments for consideration
provided by Commissioner Ekberg via e-mail in his absence.
Modified Proposed Code Amendments:
1. Update Sign Code regulations dealing with animated signage.
Staff presented the Planning Commission with 2 options:
Option #1 Ban animated signs but allow electronic signs.
Option #2 Ban electronic signs altogether.
The Planning Commission is not interested in banning electronic signs but they want to regulate the level of brightness and
prohibition on animation. Therefore, staff is recommending that the daytime brightness level be limited to 5,000 nits and
nighttime brightness to 500 nits. To administer the proposed revisions the City would attempt to purchase the necessary
equipment out of the 2004 budget.
The Planning Commission had questions regarding what a nit is and what it is in relationship to a watt. Mr. Lancaster stated
it is difficult grasping with just a number the relative brightness. He compared the City of Sea Tac standards to Tukwila's
proposed standards and Tukwila's standards will be considerably less.

The Commissioners were in consensus with Option #1.
Mr. Lancaster read Commissioner Ekberg's comments for consideration in his absence. Commissioner Ekberg elected to go
with Option #1.
2. Increase the allowed height for structures located in the Low Density Residential Zone where a Public
Recreation Overlay applies.
At the April 23' public hearing the Commission voiced a concern regarding having the ability to go up to a maximum of 80-
feet. After further review it was determined standards could be reduced to 50 -feet and still work for the Starfire project and
other similarly zoned projects. Staff is also suggesting as a way to modify the potential impact for increase height, more of a
set -back requirement. The original proposal was one foot of additional height for every 3 -feet of additional set -back, staff is
now proposing 1 foot for every 4 -feet. Under this standard it was determined the building would have to be set -back from
85 -feet to 100 -feet in order to achieve the maximum 50 -feet. For structures more than 30 -feet in height Design Review will
be a requirement. Staff suggested that projects that otherwise do not require City approval come before the BAR. Projects
that City Council has final review on do not need to come before the BAR.
Mr. Lancaster read Commissioner Ekberg's comments for consideration in his absence. Mr. Ekberg concurred with staff.
Mr. Lancaster addressed questions raised by the Commission.
The Commissioners were in consensus that structures over 30 -feet needed to come before the BAR with a maximum of 50-
feet and with a set -back of 1 foot for every 4 -feet.
Mr. Lancaster stated there may be some vesting issues on the Starfire project because they have already submitted
applications under the current codes. If the City Council adopts the proposed recommendation he will keep the Commission
posted on the timing of how things will come before the Commission.
Add automobile and truck rentals as separate land use categories in the Zoning Code.
At the April 23r public hearing the consensus were, change verbiage for codes 18.36.020 and 18.38.020 on page 7 of the
staff report to read the same as code 18.34.020, so there is consistency across the districts.
Add self storage as a land use category in the Zoning Code.
Staff provided a defmition of self storage per the Commission's request at the public hearing on 4/23/03. It read, "Self
Storage Facility" means a building designed and used for the purpose of renting or leasing individual indoor storage space to
customers who are to have access to the space for the purpose of storing or removing personal property on a self service
basis.
The Commission concurred with the districts in which self storage would be allowed.
Mr. Lancaster read Commissioner Ekberg's comments for consideration. He had one question, which was addressed and
had no issues with staff' s recommendation.
RECOMMENDATIONS TO BE FORWARDED TO THE CITY COUNCIL:
1. Sign Code Regulations Adoption of Option #1 as proposed in the staff report.
2. Increase in allowed height for structure.... Adoption of the proposed changes in the staff report with the exception of
the provision those projects that require City Council approval do not need to go to the BAR.

4. Self Storage New definition of "Self Storage" as written in the staff report be adopted and the self storage facility

City Project 02 -BG09
Project Award, Completion and Acceptance
ISSUE
Award and accept as complete.
BACKGROUND
As part of the 303 Facilities list, replacing the carpet in the Tukwila Community Center
was scheduled for last year. As we had a state contract for all carpet purchases and
installation, we had the contractor begin the project. To meet a technical requirement, we
need to both approve and accept the completion of the project.
The purchase order for DuPont Flooring Systems was issued October 30, 2002, for City
Project 02 -BG09. The carpet was substantially complete during the holidays in
December, yet there was a significant punchlist so the second and final invoice was held
until May 13, 2003, when all items were completed.
The cost is summarized as follows:
Purchase Order Amounts
Base 84,444.55
Sales Tax 8S% 7.431.12
Total Amount Paid 91.875.67
RECOMMENDATION
All work required has been completed. It is recommended that this project be awarded
and accepted as complete.

1. TCC Carpet Replacement Listed as a project in the 2002 budget and substantially
completed in December, 2002, the carpet replacement at the Community Center is now ready for
acceptance. However, it was only when the bills carne in that staff realized the project had never
been approved originally. The cost was $84,445 plus sales tax, leading to a $91,875.67 total cost.
Because the carpet purchase was done through the state bid process with a purchase order, it
didn't go through the normal bid process. Alan suggested the project be approved by the Council
and also accepted as complete at the same time. Recommend project approval and
acceptance to COW and Regular Meeting.
2. TIB Camera System Bob Abbott explained that the cameras on the highway are an integral
part of police patrol and enforcement. They have used the tapes in cases to help prosecute
crimes. The current cameras have been up since 1996, and they have clearly lived past their
prime. They cannot be used effectively by the volunteers. Both the cameras and the equipment
that controls the cameras need to be replaced. The equipment that allows pictures from the
cameras to go to a tape can be replaced now. A multiplexer allows pictures to be seen on a tape
in the neighborhood resource center. It has broken frequently, and the repair shop in Connecticut
has taken 6 months to "fix" it, returning it as originally broken. Bob has worked hard to find a
replacement, and was successful in locating an Auburn Native American company that has
cameras that are much more advanced than the old one. The new Eagle Eye digital video
recorder allows viewing from all five cameras at any time. If someone want to focus on one
camera and zoom in, the other cameras are still being monitored by the system. Also, pictures
can be stored on a disk, which is much handier than the old tapes the multiplexer used. Eagle
Eye was the lowest of three bids for the new unit. Funding is available through the drug seizure
money. Committee approval of new video recorder system for 59.356.80 including tax.
3. Medical Benefits Linda Grage did a lot of research with the IRS and determined that the
Council salary plan could not include life insurance or disability insurance. Only medical, dental,
and vision benefits are properly allowed. Information.
4. Bond Ordinance Alan explained that he will use an ordinance to change money between the
street fund and the Facilities fund. He'll also roll an old bond into this one. He is trying to use
the money for non taxable projects like the TIB instead of the village. He will bring the bond
ordinance which must be correct for auditors and bond counsel both, to the combined
COW /Special meeting on the 23 of June. Recommend bond to COW /Special Meeting.
5. Sales Tax Report Although the sales tax report for last month was good, it was due to a one-
time adjustment from a Tukwila company that had not paid taxes for many years. Alan said the
City revenues will still be down, though the whole year may be ok due to the utility tax and
gambling tax. Information.

Foster Clubhouse. Proiect 89 -BG09 -GOLF 03 -02
1) Award of Construction Contract
2) Approval of Clubhouse Project Budget Encumbrance
RECOMMENDATION:
1. Award of Contract: Staff recommends the Award of Contract to Wade Perrow Construction, LLC.;
of Gig Harbor, Washington, in the amount of $3,044,768. (This sum reflects the contractor's bid
amount of $2,798,500, 8.8% Washington State Sales Tax in the amount of $246,268.) Wade Perrow is
recommended to council as the most responsive and responsible lowest bidder.
2. Total Proiect Budget Encumbrance: Staff recommends that in addition to the contract sum awarded
the general contractor that we, as the owner, retain a 10% project contingency. The contingent amount is
therefore $304,447. The sum of the construction contract award (above) and the project contingency is
$3,349,245. Staff seeks that council authorize a clubhouse construction project encumbrance of
$3,349,245.
Bid Related
The Parks and Recreation Department legally published a "Call for Bids" seeking bids from general
contractors for the construction of the Foster Golf Links Clubhouse Project Number 89 -B009 -GOLF 03-
02. Six sealed bids were received on May 21, 2003 and were publicly read by the City Clerk. The apparent
low bidder (bids not including tax) was CDK Construction Services Inc., of Duvall (CDK), in the amount of
$2,718,000; the second low bidder was Wade Perrow Construction, LLC., of Gig Harbor (WPC), in the
amount of $2,798,500; the third low bidder was Synergy Construction, Inc. (Woodinville), in the amount of
$2,810,000. The bids advanced by all bidders (with an immaterial correction offered by a bidder not
affecting the order of the three low bidders) ranged from $2,718,000 to $3,325,500. The bid amounts
advanced by the three lowest bidders differed by $92,000 a differential of less than 3.4
The project architect's range of estimated construction cost was between $2,500,000 and $2,750,000. The
highest bid amount submitted by the three lowest bidders is within 2.2% of the architect's high range. The
architect's fixed estimate of construction cost was $2,605,105. All bids exceeded that estimate. Clear
explanation for all bids exceeding that estimate is not possible and can only be speculated upon. The project
team deliberated project cost reduction measures. The rejection of bids, re- bidding, and possible cost
reduction by altering/eliminating design measures, eliminating the water feature, eliminating the owner's
representative position, minimizing the project's contingency, and substituting lesser products, materials
and/or equipment were amongst the topics deliberated. For matters of time, for coordination with next year's
planned course and facility operations, for certain known and other potential cost increases incurred by these
choices, the decision was made to proceed with the "due diligence" examination of bid documents, licensing,
and contractor qualifications. The position was taken that we should not alter the project's path, and make
funding work to the extent possible.
Due Diligence Related
The due diligence process was undertaken concurrently with the two apparent low bidders, and would have
been initiated for the third if it had been required. In examining bid submittals for the apparent low bidder,
CDK, questions arose regarding 1) contractor licensing, 2) quantity of references provided for projects of
similar scope during the past five years; 3) liens related to projects during the past five years;
1
4) civil proceedings involving the firm as a defendant or plaintiff during the past five years; 5) computations
relating to percentage of work to be done by contractor's own forces, major and minor subcontractors; 6) a
prior subcontractors license; 7) Washington State Insurance Commissioner authorized insurer status; and 8)
prior experience with proposed major subcontractor's.
On May 23' a letter was mailed and faxed to the President of CDK seeking written clarification to those
questions that arose involving the 8 issues above. On May 29 CDK replied by fax. As a result of their
response, and following legal consultation, many of the issues that prompted questions were accepted or
waived as informality, with one excention.
On page two of the RBDF form the question asked: "Within the past five (5) years has your firm (and/or its
officers) under its present or former name(s) initiated legal action or acted as defendant in any civil or
criminal legal proceeding. If yes, identify the court of jurisdiction, nature of claim or action, status of
action as pending or closed; or if closed inform of the finding(s)/award/outcome." (emphasis added) The
answer "NO" was provided by CDK and was handwritten into the blank on the form
The "Responsible Bidder Determination Form" (RBDF) submitted by CDK (and all bidders) is a part of the
formal bid package. It requires execution, under penalty of perlury by the contractor/bidder's signatory
authority. In CDK's bid submittal it was signed by the President of CDK and dated May 21 2003.
King County Superior Court records indicate that two cases exist and remain active in which CDK
has been served as a named defendant and Cameron D. Foster of CDK has filed "Notice of
Appearances" as legal counsel in behalf of CDK in both cases. These cases were filed on October 17.
2002 and April 24 2003. They reflect that CDK is a named defendant in Leval proceedings and both
records are within the past five years. Within CDK's reply (which is not signed by its author) to my
letter that sought written clarification of questions posed by CDK's bid submittals, the author stated
in writing that "CDK is currently in two legal matters and further explains CDK's role in them.
CDK's "NO" response to the above question on the RBDF constitutes a material misrepresentation of
fact within the bid documents. Their bid documents, as a result of the "NO" answer, is therefore
unreliable and cannot be considered responsible or responsive. A contract must be awarded to the
most responsive and responsible lowest bidder.
Having determined that CDK submitted a bid that contained a material misrepresentation of fact, I then
completed the due diligence inquiry for the 2' low bidder Wade Perrow Construction LLC., (WPC)
Now having applied the same "due diligence" standards in the examination of WPC's bid
submittals, licenses, and qualifications to the same extent as that conducted for CDK I
find no compelling reason to reject WPC as the project's general contractor. I believe WPC
represents a most responsive and responsible lowest bidder. From the same sources applied to
CDK, I have been informed that no court records exist within the past five years in King,
Pierce, Snohomish, or Thurston Counties, in which Wade-Perrow is identified as a plaintiff or
defendant.
