II. APPROVAL OF MINUTES
The minutes of February 1,2007 and March 1,2007 both approved as corrected.
m. UPDATE FROM MAC
John Barbee, MAC Advisor; Helen Enguerra and Yvraune Crowder provided an
update of MAC activities. Former MAC Ambassador, Nestor Enguerra, is
Helen's brother. Helen Enguerra and John Barbee extended an invitation to the
Polynesian Outreach Program (POP) at the UW on April 20th. Foster students
will be able to attend workshops on college readiness and Pacific Islander dancers
will perform. John Barbee reported that MAC students are working on the annual
World's Fair cultural event to be held at Foster High School on May 4th. They are
collaborating with Miss Middleton on a senior portfolio showcase. Yvraune
demonstrated a "stepping" step dance that she will perform on May 12th @2PM

Edmundson Pavilion. John Barbee announced that Husky Smiles, a volunteer

E. Discussion regarding terms of office - Since our current membership roster
shows Commission Positions #1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 8, and 9 all expiring on July 30, 2007,
it has been suggested that we stagger the terms so that the expiration dates are
more balanced. Joan suggested this could be done by renewing Position # 1,2,3,
7, and 8 for two year terms, and renewing Position #5 and #9 for one year terms.
Consequently, four positions, #4, 5, 6 and 9, would expire in 2008, and five
positions, #1,2,3, 7, and 8, would be up for renewal in 2009. Verna, Joan,
Falicia and Jonathan have all expressed an interest in being reappointed. Before
we move forward with this plan, we will need to determine whether the Mayor
wishes to re-appoint Commission members holding positions #5 and #9.
F. Latino Parent Night - Emma reported on the February Latino parent night
held in the Showalter Commons. The power point presentation in English was
translated into Spanish. Their next meeting will be April 24th and the program
will be mental health, alcohol and drug counseling with the focus being on the
school counselor's role and what the process is to access these services. Emma
emphasized the success of the Latino Parent Night programs and said the plan is
for this pilot program to branch out to other languages and cultures in the future.
John Barbee said that "soup with the supe" (superintendent) is another successful
parents group that meets on Wednesday evenings where the administrators come
and cook soup for the parents.
v. NEW BUSINESS
A. Backyard Wildlife Habitat Fair - the annual fair will be held at TCC on
May 12th and they have asked for our assistance in obtaining access to translation
services for translating some of their flyers in to other languages. There was
general consensus to provide assistance, within our budgetary limitations, once a
cost basis can be determined. It was suggested we could ask to have a message
placed on the school's electronic sign advertising the Backyard Wildlife Habitat
Fair.
VI. ANNOUNCEMENTS - Verna announced she has received correspondence from
St. Mark's Cathedral on Capitol Hill asking for volunteers to help with their literacy
tutoring program in Tukwila. She will provide more information at the next meeting.

Modification Westfield Development Agreement
DCD File No. DA07-003
Background
Westfield, the owner of Southcenter Mall, is undertaking a large scale redevelopment and
expansion oftheir property. On December 5,2005, a development agreement, (the
Agreement) was approved and executed between the City of Tukwila and Westfield that
covered a wide array of issues including vesting of the project with existing Codes.
Section 3.3 of the Agreement states that, "The provisions of the TMC, excluding building
and fire codes... in effect on the EIS Issuance Date (which was October 6, 2004) shall
apply to the Project. ..." A copy of the Agreement is attached.
The Agreement also allows for modification (Section 9, (page 11) Binding Nature;
Modification) when there is mutual agreement of the City Council and Westfield.
Issue
In conjunction with the expansion and redevelopment, Westfield has prepared a
Comprehensive Exterior Resigning Plan for Southcenter. The Sign Code gives a sign
allowance of 1,200 square feet to Westfield for "mall" signage, as opposed to individual
tenant signage.
An amendment of the City's Sign Code occurred in July 2005. The Required Section of
the Permits Chapter (TMC 19.12.010) was changed to explicitly exclude any required
permitting of signs whose message is not discernible from the public right-of-way,
adjacent properties or adjacent businesses.
Westfield's site is 85 acres and a large amount of signage is not discernible from adjacent
streets; therefore, they would like to take advantage of the current City regulations for
SIgnS.
6300 Southcenter Boulevard, Suite #100 · Tukwila, Washington 98188 . Phone: 206-431-3670 . Fax: 206-431-3665
Application of the July 2005 amendment ofthe Sign Code to the mall site would allow
Westfield to exclude signage proposed for the interior ring road as well as signage along
the new south building front and north faces on the garages. Signage in these locations is
intended for directional way-finding on site for both vehicular and pedestrian customers.
Proposal
Westfield recommends the following language amendment to the existing Development
Agreement. The proposed changes to the Vested Rights section are underlined and are as
follows:
3.3 Vested Rights The provisions of the Tukwi1a Municipal Code ("TMC,") excluding
building and fire codes pursuant to TMC Chapter 16 and the Tukwila Sign Code (TMC
Chapter 19), in effect on the EIS Issuance Date shall apply to the Project, except as
otherwise provided in this Agreement or by state or federally mandated laws preempting
the City's authority to vest regulations for the Project. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
provisions ofthe Tukwila Sign Code (TMC Chapter 19) in effect on January L 2007
shall applvto the Proiect. In addition, pursuant to RCW 36.70B.170 (4) (Development
Agreements - Authorized,) the City reserves authority to impose new or different
officially adopted regulations of general applicability; but only if, and to the extent
required by a serious threat to public health and safety as determined by the City Council,
and only after notice and an opportunity to be heard has been provided to \Vestfield. The
Project shall not be subject to any development moratoria the City may adopt subsequent
to the date of this Agreement unless necessitated by a serious threat to the public health,
safety and welfare. "
Analysis
Staff agrees that allowing the 2006 Sign Code to apply to the proposed exterior resigning
package will have no negative impacts on the adjacent business community or the City as
a whole.
Tukwila's Board of Architectural Review found on April 26, 2007 that Westfield's
proposal meets the City's design standards and guidelines.
Recommendation
Approve the language amendment to the Development Agreement and forward to the
August 27 Committee of the Whole meeting for review.

construct or fund any transportation improvements to establish transportation concurrency.
Further, the Parties agree that the City shall not require any additional transportation analysis as
part of any future City permitting for the Project.
5.2 Transportation Impact Fees.
a. The Parties have completed the technical analysis to determine the transportation
impact fees due to mitigate the transportation impacts of the Project pursuant to TMC 9.48.150
(Transportation Concurrency Standards and Impact Fees). Based on that analysis, the Parties
agree to the following transportation impact fee schedule for the Project:
I Project I Link or Intersection Impact Fee Due
I 96-RW18 I Southcenter Parkway 168 $15,200
93 -RW 11 I West Valley Strander $43,120
89-RW13 I Interurban Bridge I $19,920

International Blvd.)
89 -RWO5 I East Marginal (BAR to 112th) $0
84 -RW 19 Tukwila Urban Access /Klickitat
Improvements (Southcenter Parkway to I -5) $504,120
Total Transportation Impact Fees for the Project $1,079,940
Note 1: This reflects $1,350,360 fee due for this transportation project less a credit of $846,240
for the Owner's dedication of right -of -way for this transportation project.
No additional transportation analysis and no additional transportation concurrency certificates
shall be required for Westfield to construct the entire Project.
b. These Transportation Impact Fees are based upon the trips generated from
development of 787,903 square feet of gba, which is full buildout of the Project. Westfield shall
only pay the proportion of Transportation Impact Fees owing prior to issuance of building
permits for the Project based upon the proportional trips generated from the square footage of
Page 4 oV' J /p
development proposed in such building permits as compared to the trips generated from full
buildout.
5.3 Tukwila Urban Access /Klickitat Improvement Proiect. The City has begun design of the
Tukwila Urban Access /Klickitat Improvement project, Project 84 -RW19 (the "Klickitat
Project The Parties agree that the design will include as a design alternative a new vehicular
ingress only "slip ramp" (the "Slip Ramp that will provide access by northbound traffic north
of Strander Boulevard down into the Property, a pedestrian access via a separated pedestrian
walkway from Southcenter Parkway, and a retaining wall as necessary to support the Southcenter
Parkway improvements for Phase I (the "Klickitat Wall If the Sears Tire, Batteries and
Accessories (TBA) store is built prior to the construction of the Klickitat Project, Westfield shall
build a retaining wall for the TBA pad (the "TBA Wall and submit documentation to the City
that confirms the cost of the TBA Wall (the "TBA Wall Costs In the event that the City uses
the TBA Wall as a portion of the Klickitat Project or removes the TBA Wall, Westfield shall be
compensated by the City for the TBA Wall Costs as follows: (a) in cash at completion of the
Klickitat Project; (b) in the form of a credit in the amount of the TBA Wall Costs against any
LID assessment for the Klickitat Project; or (c) a combination of (a) and (b) that fully
compensates Westfield. If the TBA Wall is removed in whole or in part by the construction of
the Slip Ramp, no compensation shall be due from the City. If the Slip Ramp design alternative
is chosen by Westfield to be included in their final project, Westfield shall reimburse the City for
all construction costs associated with the construction of the Slip Ramp and separated pedestrian
walkway, but not for costs associated with the Klickitat Wall.
5.4 Transportation Improvement Proiect Credit. Westfield and /or Owner shall dedicate the
right -of -way necessary for the Klickitat Project. Westfield and/or Owner shall also dedicate, at
no expense to the City, the right -of -way necessary for the Slip Ramp and the separated
pedestrian access, if Westfield agrees to fund these additional improvements. Westfield has
received a credit in the amount of $846,240 against the Traffic Impact Fees for the dedication of
right of way necessary for the Klickitat Project. This credit is reflected in the reduced
Transportation Impact Fee delineated in Section 5.2. The Parties agree that such dedicated right
of way shall not include any parking lot or circulation driveways in the Project.
5.5 No Protest LID Agreement. Prior to issuance of the first building permit, Westfield and
Owner shall execute individual no protest LID Agreements for the following future projects:
Improvements to Tukwila Parkway
61 Avenue South Bridge Widening
Tukwila Urban Access /Klickitat Improvement Project
Westfield shall receive a credit against the assessment for the Tukwila Urban Access /Klickitat
Improvement Project LID for that portion of the Impact Fees paid pursuant to Paragraph 5.2 that
are attributable to the Tukwila Urban Access /Klickitat Improvement Project.
Each agreement to not protest the formation of a future Local Improvement District shall include
the right of Westfield and the Owner to protest the methodology and /or specific amount of any
LID assessment.
Page 5oJW
5.6 Frontage Improvements.
a. Westfield shall provide frontage improvements along Andover Park West from
Strander Boulevard north to the new limits of the existing bus pullout, and from Baker Boulevard
north to the Bank of America property line; along Tukwila Parkway between the Bahama Breeze
access and the Bank of America property line (all these improvements are hereinafter referred to
as "Frontage Improvements The Frontage Improvements shall be designed and constructed
consistent with the following:
1. Landscaping shall be completed pursuant to the Tukwila Street Tree
Program for the CBD Sidewalk Project; however, tree placement is preferred between traffic and
sidewalk whenever practicable.
2. Sidewalk sections shall be concrete and a minimum of six feet (6') in
width except that, in locations where the sidewalk is adjacent to an existing traffic control
cabinet or light pole, the sidewalk may be reduced to the minimum ADA width.
3. All light poles or other obstructions (e.g. signal control cabinets) may
either be located or relocated behind the sidewalk or, at Westfield's discretion, the light pole or
other obstruction may remain within the sidewalk, but the sidewalk shall be widened to provide
clear passage around the pole or other obstruction so long as the width is consistent with ADA
standards. The only exception to this provision is if a sight distance or turning radius issue is
created by the pole or obstruction at the Strander Blvd. and eastern driveway location. If, at this
one location, the City determines that sight distance or turning radius standards cannot be met,
the pole or obstruction shall be relocated at Westfield's expense, or Westfield shall provide
engineering substantiation demonstrating that turning movement and sight distance standards
will be met without such relocation.
4. All public sidewalks may be installed on easements.
5. The Frontage Improvements are illustrated on Exhibit E "Frontage
Improvement Design attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference. Should a
conflict arise between the text in this Section 5.6 and the Frontage Improvement Design, the
conflict shall be resolved by mutual agreement of the Parties.
b. The westerly access on Strander Blvd. shall be relocated so that it aligns with the
existing driveway on the south side of Strander Blvd. that provides access to the "rear"
parking/service area of Target and the primary entrance to the Tukwila Pond Park. Westfield
shall construct a traffic signal with full turning movements at this access. The Parties agree that
no public safety concerns at this access have been forecast to warrant turning movement
restrictions. Should the City identify, in the future, safety concerns that may warrant turning
movement restrictions, the City shall provide notice to Westfield and a reasonable opportunity to
comment and propose alternative measures to address potential safety concerns.
c. Westfield shall provide restriping, if necessary, so that channelization in Baker
Blvd. matches changes in the Andover Park West /Baker Blvd. intersection.
Page 6 o yel 1�
6.2 Water Service.
d. Westfield shall provide the City with easements for the maintenance of the traffic
signal loops that are present on the Property. The City shall bill Westfield on an annual basis for
the actual maintenance performed on the traffic loops.
e. The Project plans must include an extension of the Andover Park West transit
center pullout to the south by thirty feet (30') subject to approval by adjacent tenants; however
this shall not restrict the City from closing this access under its authority under the State of
Washington Constitution.
f. The Project plans must include modifications to the two accesses to the U.S. Post
Office to permit right in/right out with widths between twenty -five feet (25') and thirty -five feet
(35'), and include closing of the two accesses located in front of the Firestone building, all
subject to approval by adjacent tenants; however this shall not restrict the City from closing this
access under its authority under the State of Washington Constitution.
g. Any future changes to access points or intersections must be designed to align
with existing adjacent access driveways. Civil plans must include information on the
neighboring accesses /intersections.
h. To accommodate sidewalks, utilities and temporary construction, Westfield shall
provide a new 15 -foot wide easement along Andover Park West in those areas of the existing 10-
foot and 5 -foot easements. The existing 10 -foot and 5 -foot easements shall be extinguished.
Section 6: Water, Sewer, and Surface Water Utilities
6.1 General. The Project will require removal of a substantial amount of the utilities
infrastructure on the south side of the site, but will have only minimal effect upon the north side
utilities. The Owner, Westfield and the City agree that the utilities are in fair shape, except for a
bow in the sewer line north of Mervyn's Department Store, which is located in the northeast
portion of the Property and which needs to be corrected. All of the fire and irrigation cross
connection controls on the north side of the development are in place and up to date. So long as
the requirements of Sections 6.2 and 6.3 of this Agreement are met, sufficient sewer and water
capacity exists for the Project. The City shall not withhold any permit approvals for the Project
on account of insufficient water or sanitary sewer capacity to accommodate the Project. The
City shall not require any additional off -site water, sewer or surface water infrastructure
improvements to support the Project. The Parties agree to the conditions set forth in the
remaining subsections of this Section for any building permit(s) for the Project.
a. A water availability certificate shall be issued by the City upon Owner and
Westfield completion of the following:
1. Submission of a site survey locating the existing 8 -inch water line along
Southcenter Parkway and its 15 -foot easement, and an accurate provision of a new easement, if
needed, that coincides with the actual location of the water line.
Page 7oV') Ito
2. Installation, at Westfield's expense, of two 10 -inch valves; one on the east
side and one on the west side of the site. Owner and Westfield shall own and maintain all
existing and new water system infrastructure between the two valves, except water meters
exterior to the building, which shall belong to the City pursuant to TMC Chapter 14.04 (Water
Rates and Regulations).
3. Upsizing, at Westfield's expense, to a new 12 inch water line, those
portions of the existing 10 -inch water line on the south side of the Property that must be
relocated in order to construct the Project.
No further conditions need to be satisfied for issuance of the water availability certificate.
b. There are approximately nineteen existing external connections to the looped, 10-
inch mains. Some of these connections are water supply to the building and some of these
connections are for irrigation. All water supply connections to the building shall have City
owned meters at the private main. The City shall install these meters. Exhibit F shows the
City's responsibilities for the installation of the meters. The City agrees to waive the permanent
installation meter fees. Westfield shall meet current City standards for all new connections as
follows:
1. Installation of a reduced pressure principle assembly "RPPA between
each water supply meter and the building, locating each RPPA as close to its meter as possible.
2. On lines that Westfield replaces, upgrade the water only (irrigation
meters), as needed to meet the City's current standard.
3. On lines that Westfield replaces, upgrade the cross connection control
(backflow prevention) on the irrigation meters as needed.
existing.
6.3 Sewer Service.
4. Provision of an easement benefiting the City for each meter, new or
c. The City shall include the capacity provided by the new line in its fire flow
modeling.
a. In 2006, the City shall repair the sewer line north of Mervyn's to remove the bow
in the pipe.
b. Upon the City's completion of sewer line repair work north of Mervyn's, Owner
and Westfield shall accept ownership and assume maintenance responsibilities for the existing
sewer system from the connection at the main in Andover Park West throughout the Property.
6.4 Surface Water. The Parties analyzed the potential stormwater impacts of the Project in
the EIS. The EIS concluded that because the Project would not increase the amount of
impervious surface at Southcenter, the Project would generate no additional effect on water
Page 8 of to
quantity relative to existing conditions. The EIS further concluded that because the Project
includes converting some existing surface parking areas into structured parking and interior mall
space, the Project would have a net positive effect on the quality of surface water runoff for
Southcenter. Based on this analysis, the Parties agree that no new or additional stormwater
detention will be required as part of the Project. Westfield has agreed to include additional
stormwater quality treatment on the south side of the Property (e.g., in -line stormwater treatment
vaults) as part of the Project to improve the quality of the stormwater runoff generated by
Southcenter.
6.5 Ownership of Utilities. In 1969, the City entered into a Bill of Sale of Utility Facilities
and Utility Right -of -Way Agreement (the "Utility Agreement with Southcenter Shopping
Center Corporation, Boncom Corporation, Allied Stores Corporation and Connecticut Life
Insurance, the then owners and lessee of the Property. The Utility Agreement provided that the
sanitary sewer trunk lines and laterals, storm sewer trunk lines and laterals, and water mains and
laterals (referred to as "Utility Lines installed by the owners to serve the Property were
conveyed to the City and were thereafter maintained by the City.
Upon completion of the utility repair noted in this Agreement, the City and Owner shall execute
a Bill of Sale, in the form generally as attached hereto as Exhibit G, transferring to Owner
ownership of and maintenance responsibility for those Utility Lines identified in the Bill of Sale.
Owner shall grant easements to the City for access to and inspection of new master water meters
constructed as part of the Project.
Section 7: Remaining Development Conditions
7.1 Power Supply Distribution. Westfield shall coordinate with Puget Sound Energy "PSE
for additional electrical capacity for the shopping center development through the addition of a
new distribution feeder circuit to the existing system that presently serves the shopping center
campus. As of the Effective Date of this Agreement, the Parties anticipate that the best source
for an additional circuit would come from the Southcenter substation located on Southcenter
Parkway and approximately S. 168 St. An empty conduit pathway placed by PSE exists from the
substation to the south side of the Southcenter property at Strander Blvd. To meet this condition,
Westfield shall extend a vault and conduit system north from the intersection of Southcenter
Parkway and Strander Blvd., near the former Doubletree Inn, and tie into the existing spare
conduits on the west side of the shopping center campus. At this west side location, new conduit
pathway and vault infrastructure will be provided by Westfield to facilitate PSE's feeder circuit
and primary power switching and transformation equipment necessary to serve the new and
renovated development on the shopping center site. The new feeder circuit would then extend
from the substation through the conduit system on the Southcenter site to tie into the existing
PSE primary power circuitry located on the east side of Southcenter on Andover Park West. As
needed, PSE shall add additional station transformer capacity at both Southcenter and Renton
Junction substations.
7.2 Communications. Westfield shall upgrade the existing Qwest Communications main
point of presence "MPOP space located inside Westfield Shoppingtown Southcenter to meet
the anticipated increased voice and data services demand generated by the Project. If the
existing space is maintained and expansion occurs in another area in order to meet the increase in
Page 9o,'
demand, Westfield shall protect and provide maintenance access to the existing communications
path while digging during construction. If the extent of digging precludes Westfield from
protecting the existing communications path, Westfield shall relocate all communications
components (preferably in one location). If so, Westfield shall provide new conduit and updated
service equipment. Westfield is responsible for any and all upgrades that would enable Qwest to
serve Southcenter.
7.3 Air Oualitv Measures. Westfield shall control fugitive dust during construction of the
Project using reasonable precautions as provided by the Puget Sound Clean Air Agency.
7.4 Emeraencv Measures. Westfield shall maintain accessibility to the Project site during
construction in order to retain current emergency response times. Westfield shall coordinate
displacement of parking and/or disruption to vehicular or pedestrian traffic patterns with
Southcenter management and Tukwila Police and Fire prior to construction.
7.5 Security Measures. Westfield shall take the following actions in order to improve
existing police service to Southcenter and to meet additional service demands created by the
Project:
a. Short-term Construction. Westfield shall provide site security measures during
Project construction, such as security patrols, fencing, lighting, and provision of secure areas for
equipment, in order to discourage theft, vandalism, trespassing, and other unauthorized activities.
Westfield shall work with the Tukwila Police Department, where possible, to implement these
security measures.
b. Radio Communications. Westfield shall coordinate during design and
construction of the Project to establish a mutually acceptable Tukwila Police Department and
Fire Department transmission and reception with the Valley Communications Center throughout
the Property.
c. Community Resource Center. Westfield shall provide a tenant space in the
Project and designated parking areas for the City of Tukwila Police Department, to be available
upon the certificate of occupancy of the Project. The location and size of the space, which shall
be mutually agreeable, shall provide visibility and convenience thus enabling the City Tukwila
Police Department personnel to support Property safety and security.
d. Property Liahtina and Security Cameras. Westfield shall provide adequate
exterior and /or interior security cameras and adequate exterior and garage lighting that comply
with City standards.
7.6 Recvclina Program. Westfield shall provide recyclable collection points and haul routes
designed to minimize impacts to pedestrian and vehicle routes. Westfield shall designate
recycling space that is equal to or greater than space allotted for garbage bins and compactors
and work with the City to maintain an effective recycling program, including recycling of plastic
film, apparel bags, paper, cardboard bottles and can.
Page 10 of )ej
7.7 Parking Stall Dimension. Westfield shall be allowed to maintain its existing parking stall
striping for buildout of the Project and may replace such striping in its existing configuration
where surface parking and circulation areas are reconstructed for the Project.
Section 8: Transfer of Property by Westfield and or Owner
8.1 Authority to Transfer. Westfield's and Owner's right to sell, transfer, mortgage,
hypothecate, convey or take any other similar action regarding real property interests in the

Subject: Tukwila Pond Plan, Update Briefing and Wildlife Habitat Enhancement
Project Number 03-PKIO
ISSUE
Briefing on the status of landscape design and water quality studies for improvements to
Tukwila Pond and amendment to wetland mitigation project (installation of osprey
nesting pole/platform in wetland mitigation area).
BACKGROUND
Design of the improvements to Tukwila Pond, as outlined in the Council-approved
Tukwila Pond Concept Plan are currently underway through a contract with Robert Droll
Landscape Architect, being managed by Parks and Recreation and through a second
contract with Tetra Tech for feasibility and design of water quality improvements, being
managed by DCD. The concept plan calls for improvements for public access and
amenities to and around the pond, as well as wildlife protection and enhancement. A
copy ofthe overall Concept Plan is attached.
Landscape Design Pro gress
An on-site planning meeting was held with the Landscape Designer, Biologist, and
surveyor on June 13. Since then the wetlands along the west side of the pond have been
delineated and a topographical and bathymetry survey has been started. Property lines
are being defined and mapped. Design work will be underway soon.
The landscape designer has already made some recommendations for enhancing wildlife
habitat that would also provide wildlife viewing opportunities for the public, such as an
osprey nesting platform and nesting boxes for swallows. These birds currently use the
pond, but there are no real nesting opportunities for them.

Water Quality Improvements - Feasibility Study and Design
The feasibility study is currently underway. A water level gauge was installed in April
with the assistance of the Fire Department and Public Works Operations. DCD staff has
been continuing the water sampling program with the assistance of the Fire Department
and providing water quality data as inputs to the feasibility study.
Amendment to Wetland Mitigation Plan
The wetland mitigation for the Southcenter Square project has started in the southeast
comer ofthe pond site.
There is an opportunity to install an osprey nesting platform this year in conjunction with
the wetland mitigation. The contractor hired by the developer is willing to build and
install it if the City covers the cost of materials and labor. The cost estimate for this work
is $4,000. Staff proposes to fund the project with the design funds available in the
Tukwila Pond budget.
The wetland appears to be the best location for the nesting platform, as it is a protected
area and would provide a buffer from surrounding development. Installing the nesting
platform in conjunction with the wetland construction avoids the need to go back in at a
later date and disrupt the restored wetland. In addition, having the developer's contractor
install the platform would save the city money by avoiding equipment mobilization costs
if the installation were done at a later date.
Staff has consulted with staff from the City Engineer, Parks and Recreation, Building
Department, Public Works, Department of Ecology and the Washington Department of
Fish and Wildlife (WDFW) about this project. There are no permits required for this
installation. WDFW has provided technical specifications for construction and guidance
about placement.
Next Steps
Staffwill again brief the CAP on the progress ofthe Tubvila Pond project when the 35%
design has been completed by the landscape architect (expected in late September or
early October) and when the water quality feasibility study is completed (expected in
early September).
