INTERLOCAL AGREEMENT REGARDING COMMUNITY
DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT (CDBG) AND HOME INVESTMENT
PARTNERSHIPS (HOME) PROGRAMS
In order to compete for and receive federal Community Development Block
Grant funds, we must continue to participate in a formalized interlocal agreement
with King County. Technical amendments were made to the agreement
regarding the make-up of the Joint Recommendations Committee (JRC) and to
comply with Housing And Urban Development requirements to affirmatively
further fair housing. The JRC serves as the advisory body that reviews the
recommended allocations of federal housing and community development funds,
in addition to the Regional Affordable Housing Program (document recording fee
funds).
Because City Councils authorized the original interlocal agreement, any
subsequent amendments must also be authorized by Council. This issue is
scheduled for the Community and Parks meeting.
The attached agreement is marked Draft, however, there are no expectations of
any changes as it goes through King County Council.
I'm available to answer questions.

Riverton Creek Flap Gate Removal
Project No. 98-DR03
Grant Acceptance
Authorize Mayor to sign grant agreements with the State of Washington Recreation and Conservation
Office and People for Puget Sound.
BACKGROUND
Riverton Creek discharges into the Duwamish River through two culverts originally installed as part of
construction ofSR 599. Each of these pipes was fitted with a flap gate to prevent river water from
flooding adjacent property. To improve fish access to Riverton Creek, the City has proposed a fish
habitat project that will remove the pipes and flap gates to create an open water connection to the river.
A small bridge or box culvert will need to be installed because of the pedestrian trail at this location.
Staff requested grant submittal approval at the 9/5/07 Utility Committee Meeting.
ACTION TAKEN
Staff received a $42,400 grant through the Salmon Recovery Funding Board (SRFB) administered by
the Sate of Washington Recreation and Conservation Office. In addition, People for Puget Sound
contacted the City looking to fund a habitat restoration project in the Duwamish River Area. The
Department of Ecology transferred Sound Transit construction related water quality fine money to the
People for Puget Sound for distribution to habitat related projects. Staff presented this project to the
People for Puget Sound and they agreed to provide $30,000 in funding.
The two grants received combined with $50K City revenue budgeted for 2008 will fund feasibility and
design work. This City contribution will also fulfill the local match required by the SRFB grant.
Additional grant funding will be required for the construction phase.
RECOMMENDATION
Authorize Mayor to sign grant agreements with the State of Washington Recreation and Conservation
Office and People for Puget Sound.

Second Amendment 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 ofthe 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. Attachment B
The Agreement allows for modification (Section 9, (page 11) Binding Nature;
Modification) when there is mutual agreement of the City Council and Westfield. A First
amendment to the Agreement was approved by the City in 2007 to provide that Westfield
was vested to the provisions of the Tukwila Sign Code, in effect on January 1, 2007 as
opposed to provision in effect on the EIS Issuance Date.
Issue
As part of the Tukwila Centennial Celebration and with Westfield's permission, the
Centennial Committee commissioned and hung temporary signs on the two new garages
at Southcenter Mall. There are five Tukwila Life signs per garage. The signs vary in size,
some are 240 others are 300 square feet.
Westfield requests approval to continue signage on the garage walls for products or
services available at the mall. The proposal is to have a total of eleven signs that are each
a maximum of288 square feet in area and dimensionally 12 by 24 feet. Exhibit Din

Analysis
The Tukwila Sign Code was developed over 30 years ago. The character of suburban
malls has changed and the intensity of development in Tukwila has changed. The
expectation in the current Code is that businesses occupy the buildings upon which their
signs are placed. What signage, if any, should be allowed on parking garages?
Westfield would like the opportunity to provide signage on their garages and utilize the
hardware used for the Tukwila Life signs. The proposed "Brand Alliance" signage will
refer to products, services or businesses that are on the mall property, thus qualifying the
signs as "on-premise signs."
The Tukwila Sign Code refers to two types of signs for malls:
.:. Individual businesses in a mall, and
.:. Signs for the center as a whole.
The Code generally limits signs to a maximum size limit of 500 square feet on a
building's face. The proposed signs are 288 square feet and two are proposed on each
face. See Exhibit D in Attachment A.
Because of the Tukwila Life signs, the community has had the opportunity to analyze the
visual impact of the size and location of the proposed "Brand Alliance" signs. Garages in
the commercial area of the City are a new phenomenon. The Mall is a unique
development due to its size and its complex pattern of development. Negative comments
have not been received regarding the number and size. The Brand Alliance signage
should be favorably considered.
Proposal
Westfield requests the following signage amendment to the existing Development
Agreement.
Brand Alliance Signs
Brand Alliance signs are "on -premises signs" as defmed in the Definitions
Section of the Sign Code (TMC 19.08.140,) that display through copy and or
images, goods sold or services rendered on the premises. Signs that display only
the name of the business are not Brand Alliance signs. Brand Alliance signs are
authorized on the garages subject to the following criteria:
1. Brand Alliance signage shall not include tobacco or alcohol advertisements.
2. The mall name may be included on Brand Alliance signage in combination
with the advertisement of services and/or goods sold on the premises in a
subordinate role, in addition to the signage allowed in the "Identification
Signs for the Center as a Whole.".(TMC 19.32.155.)
Page 2 of 3
3. A tenant name may be included in a Brand Alliance sign in a subordinate role
when in combination with advertisement of goods or services in addition to
the permanent signage allowed for that tenantlbusiness.
4. A permanent sign permit is required for each Brand Alliance sign.
5. A sign permit is not required to change the copy, frame, lighting or
orientation.
6. No change is allowed in the number of or general location ofthe Brand
Alliance signs as shown on Exhibit D in Attachment A.
7. Brand Alliance signage is not allowed on the main mall building.
Recommendation
Approve the Second Amendment to the Development Agreement (Attachment A) and
forward to the July 14 Committee of the Whole meeting for review.

SECOND AMENDMENT TO DEVELOPMENT AGREKMENT
BETWEEN THE CITY OF TUKWILA,
WEA SOUTHCENTER LLC,
FOR THE EXPANSION AND RENOVATION
OF WESTFIELD SOUTH CENTER MALL
THIS SECOND AMENDMENT TO DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT ("Second
Amendment") is entered into by and between the City of Tukwila, a Washington Non-Charter
Optional Municipal Code City (the "City") and WEA Southcenter LLC, a Delaware limited
liability company ("Westfield"), the majority owner and developer of the Property (defined
below).
RECITALS
A. The City, Westfield and Prudential Financial Inc. ("Prudential") entered into that
certain Development Agreement (Contract No. 05-123) recorded under King County Recording
No. 20060621000329 (the "Development Agreement"). The Development Agreement (File
No. DA7-003) related to the expansion and renovation of the Westfield Southcenter Mall
development site (the "Project"), as depicted and legally described and in Exhibit A and Exhibit
B, respectively, ofthe Development Agreement (the "Property").
B. Westfield acquired the majority of the Property from Prudential on September 29,
2006, and is now successor-in-interest to Prudential under the Development Agreement. Except
for a portion owned by Federated Department Stores, Inc., the Property is owned by Westfield.
C. The City and Westfield entered into that certain First Amendment to the
Development Agreement recorded under King County Recording No. 20070920001425 (the
"First Amendment"), to provide that Westfield was vested to the provisions of the Tukwila
Sign Code, Tukwila Municipal Code ("TMC") Chapter 19 (the "Sign Code"), in effect on
January 1, 2007, as opposed to the provisions in effect on the EIS Issuance Date. Per the First
Amendment, references to TMC sections in this Second Amendment are citations to the Sign
Code in effect on January 1, 2007.
D. The City and Westfield now desire to execute this Second Amendment in order to
formalize past applications of the Sign Code, Tukwila Municipal Code (TMC) 19 and related
signage procedures to Southcenter Mall and to provide clarity on application of the Sign Code to
Mall Garages.
E. There are two types of signs specified in Sign Code that are allowed at the Mall -
signs for tenant/businesses and signs for the center as a whole. Signs for the center as a whole
underwent design review and were approved as to color, materials and type by the Board of
Architectural Review. (File no. L07-007 hereinafter the "Sign Package Approval".) This
Agreement modifies the Sign Package Approval for Brand Alliance signage.
1
I/1f}fM M €AIr A
F. There are multiple buildings on the Property. Any approved future development
that abuts the Main Building shall be considered part of the Main Building for the purposes of
this Agreement and the Sign Code. Any approved future development that does not abut the
Main Mall Building (other than a parking garage) shall be considered a Perimeter Building
G The complexities of sign regulation relative to the changing character of the Mall
have resulted in the following City interpretations and administration of the Sign Code on the
regulation of tenantlbusiness signage on the Mall Property.
1) Tenants in the Main Building that have their own exterior public entrance are
allowed signage on that portion of the Building that serves as an exterior wall to its tenant space;
and
2) Tenants in the Main Building are allowed up to two, and anchor tenants are
allowed up to four, wall signs, one for each wall that faces one of the four cardinal directions
(north, south, east and west); and
3) Sign size for Tenants in the Main Building is 6% of the total area of the wall
that serves as an exterior wall to the tenant's space but not more than 500 square feet; and
4) Tenants who have a portion of their exterior wall blocked by a Garage are
allowed to place signage on the Garage walls that are parallel to the tenants blocked exterior
walls. The area allowed for the Garage mounted wall sign is calculated using the area of the wall
upon which it is mounted.
5) Tenants in perimeter buildings are allowed two wall signs.
6) One freeway interchange sign is allowed per the height and area allowance of
Freeway Interchange Businesses; Permitted Signs - Height and Area Allowance (TMC
19.32.180.)
H. The City and Westfield agree that each has entered into this Second Amendment
knowingly and voluntarily, and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Second
Amendment.
1. The Tukwila City Council held a public hearing to consider this Second
Amendment on July 14, 2008, and approved this Second Amendment by Resolution _ on
J. SEPA review for the entire Project was fully and completely evaluated through an
Environmental hnpact Statement entitled Westfield Shoppingtown Southcenter Expansion dated
October 6,2004, prepared pursuant to the State Environmental Policy Act, RCW 43.2IC, and no
further SEP A review is required in connection with this Second Amendment.

FOR THE EXPANSION AND RENOVATION
OJ? WESTFIELD SOUTHCENTER MALL
Section 1:
Parties
1.1 This Development Agreement ("Agreement") is entered into by and between the City of
Tukwila, a Washington Non-Charter Optional Municipal Code City (the "Citi'), Prudential
Financial Inc. ("Owner"), the majority owner of the property, and WEA Southcenter LLC, a
Delaware limited liability company ("Westfield"), a lessee and developer of the property. This
Agreement is entered into pursuant to the authority of RCW 36.70B.I70 through .210 under
which a local government may enter into a devel9pment agreement with any entity having
ownership or control of real property- within its jurisdiction. All three entities shall be known
collectively as "the Parties" to this Agreement.
Section 2;
Recitals
2.1 Westfield Southcenter Mall, the development site, is located on land within the City of
Tukwila, within the block bounded by Southcenter Parkway, Strander Boulevard, Andover Park
West and Tukwila Parkway, excluding the Bank of America parcel in the northeast corner of the
block. The site, comprising approximately 85 acres, is shown on attached Exhibit A and a legal
description is attached hereto as Exhibit B and shall be known as the Property ("Property").
2.2 Except for a portion owned by Federated Department Stores, Inc., the Property is owned
by Prudential Financial Inc. and Westfield is the lessee of the Property pursuant to a long term
lease.
2.3 The purpose of this Agreement is to address the expansion of the mall in accordance with
development agreements under Washington State law (RCW 36.70B.160 et seq.), which
authorize local governments to enter into development agreements with any entity having
ownership or control of real property within a local government's jurisdiction.
2.4 The City and Westfield agree that Westfield's presence in the community provides
significant economic and community benefit to the City and its residents.
2.5 Westfield would like to improve the market position of Southcenter as a regional,
commercial shopping complex that offers a wide variety of merchandise options, commercial
services, entertainment and retail opportunities for consumers. To accomplish this goal,
Westfield proposes to expand the existing Southcenter complex by approximately 787,903
square feet of gross building area ("gba"), herein after referred to as the Project ("pr~t")' The
!:st e1f 0
. pagel;;/,I(P ORIGINALJ
A1T/feHA1iVT"
Project may include retail uses, restaurants, a movie theater complex, a hotel, and parking
structures that=are developed in phases.
2.6 The City reviewed the Project through an Environmental Impact Statement ("EIS")
entitled Westfield Shoppingtown Southcenter Expansion dated October 6, 2004 (the "BIS
Issuance Date"), prepared pursuant to the State Environmental Policy Act, RCW 43.2lC.
2.7 On December 3, 2004, the City approved a Complementary Parking and Administrative
Parking Variance (the "Parking Decision") subject to conditions that result in a reduction from
the minimum number of required parking spaces for the Project. A copy of the Parking Decision
is attached hereto as Exhibit C.
2.8 On December 13, 2004, the Tukwila Board of Architectural Review ("BAR") granted
Westfield design review approval for a site plan for 597,009 square feet of the Project (the "BAR
Decision"). A copy of the Initial BAR Decision is attached hereto as Exhibit D.
2.9 Westfield and the City desire assurance that the Project will be developed in accordance
with the ordinances, resolutions, codes, rules, regulations and official policies of the City
governing the development and use of land existing on the date of the EIS and subject to specific
conditions of approval. This Agreement provides certainty and reduces the risk for all parties
that the Project will be developed under the terms and conditions set forth herein.
2.10 The City, Westfield and Owner agree that each has entered into this Agreement
knowingly and voluntarily, and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
2.11 The Tukwila City Council held a public hearing to consider this Agreement on November
28, 2005.
2.12 The City, Westfield and Owner agree that the foregoing recitals are material to this
Agreement, and that each Party has relied on the material nature of such terms and recitals in
entering into this Agreement.
Section 3:
The Agreement
THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises and covenants set forth below,
and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the
Parties acknowledge and agree as follows:
3.1 Term. This Agreement shall commence on the Effective Date. Westfield shall have six
(6) years from the Effective Date in which to apply for the building permit(s) needed to construct
the entire Project, unless the Parties sooner agree in writing to terminate or extend this
Agreement ("Term"). The Term of this Agreement shall be tolled pending any appeals of any
land use permits or approvals granted by the City necessary to complete the Project, and pending
any delays in receipt of approvals or appeals of any state or federal agency necessary to complete
the Project. Once Westfield submits a complete building permit application for the Project, this
Agreement shall continue until such building permits (including any extension to the terms

.. .
thereof) expire, or until the City issues allrequired certificates of occupancy, whichever occurs
first.
3.2 Effective Date. This Agreement shall become effective on the first date on which all
Parties have executed this Agreement.
3.3 Vested Rights. The provisions of the Tukwila Municipal Code ("TMC"), excluding
building and fire codes pursuant to TMC Chapter 16, 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. 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
Westfield. 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.
Section 4:
Interrelationship Between Development Agreement and
Other Approvals and Applications
4.1 Binding Nature: Conflict. Westfield and Owner shall be bound by this Agreement. The
terms and conditions of this Agreement shall apply to the Project, provided that, should an
irreconcilable conflict arise between a term or condition in this Agreement and a term or
condition in the BAR Decision or Parking Decision, or a modification to the BAR Decision or to
the Parking Decision, the more restrictive of said terms shall be applied to the Project.
4.2 Prior Approvals.- Westfield has received a BAR Decision on design issues and a Parking
Decision on parking issues. Westfield shall comply with the conditions of the BAR Decision
and Parking Decision or seek modifications thereto. The Parties also agree that design review
approval is required for the remainder of the Project not included in the BAR Decision. The
Parties agree that any modification to the approved design, any modification to the Parking
Decision, and any additional design review approval required for the remainder of the Project
shall not require an amendment to this Agreement so long as it does not increase the Project's
gba. As part of reviewing any proposed modifications to the approved design, any modification
to the Parking Decision, and any future design review for the remainder of the Project, the City
shall not impose conditions on the Project inconsistent with any provision of this Agreement.
4.3 SEP A Compliance. The Parties acknowledge that the EIS fully and completely evaluated
the environmental impacts for development of the Project and that further SEP A review may
only be required if the criteria set forth in WAC ~197-1l-600(3)(b) (part Six - Using
Environmental Documents, SEPA Rules) are triggered.
4.4 Future Building Permits. The Parties acknowledge that the Project will require building
permits and that conditions may be imposed on such building permits based upon applicable
building and fire codes.
Page 3 o~{}'" J lp
Section 5:
Transportation
5.1 Transportation Concurrency. The Parties evaluated the Project for transportation
concurrency as part of the EIS. It was concluded that the Project meets City level of service
standards and therefore is compliant. The Parties agree that Westfield shall not be required to
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:
Project # Link or Intersection Impact Fee Due
96-RW18 Southcenter Parkway & 168tl1 $15,200
93-RWll West Valley & Strander $43,120
89-RW13 Interurban Bridge $19,920
84-RW07 Minkler (Andover Park West to Southcenter $0
Parkway)
88-R W04 Andover Park West (Tukwila Parkway to $271,150
Strander Blvd)
03-RW05 Andover Park East & Minkler $25,960
84-RW03 Southcenter Parkway (180th to South City $16,470
Limits)
02-RW04 Southcenter Blvd. (51st to Tukwila $184,000
International Blvd.)
89-RW05 East Marginal (BAR to 112th) $0
84-RW19 Tukwila Urban AccesslKlickitat
Improvements (Southcenter Parkway to 1-5) $504,1201
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 ovl /P
development proposed in such building permits as compared to the trips generated from full
buildout.
5.3 Tukwila Urban AccesslKlickitat Improvement Proiect. The City has begun design of the
Tukwila Urban AccesslKlickitat 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
w~lkway 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 cbst 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 st Avenue South Bridge Widening
. Tukwila Urban AccesslKlickitat Improvement Project
Westfield shall receive a credit against the assessment for the Tukwila Urban AccessIKlickitat
Improvement Project LID for that portion of the Impact Fees paid pursuant to Paragraph 5.2 that
are attributable to the Tukwila Urban AccessIKlickitat 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.

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 J?roperty 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
c<?nsistent with the following:
1. Landscaping shall be completed pursuant to the Tukwila Street Tree
Program for the CBD Sidewalk Proje~t; however, tree placement is preferred between traffic and
sidewalk whenever practicable.
2. Sidewalk sections shall be concrete and a rninifutmiof six feet (6') 'in
Widthexqepfthf,it,inloca.nonSwhere the sidewalk is adjacent to an existing traffic control
cabifiet brlight pole, the side:walkmaybereduced 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 tuming 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 tuming 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 oVJIP
d. Westfield shall provide the City with easements for the maintenance of the traffic
signalloQPs that arepresenton 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.
6.2 Water Service.
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 7 of?'7' J lp
2. Installation, at Westfield's expense, of two lO-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
reJocated 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 ("RPP A") between
each water supply meter and the building, locating each RPP A 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.
4. Provision of an easement benefiting the City for each meter, new or
existing.
c.
modeling.
The City shall include the capacity provided by the new line in its fire flow
6.3 Sewer Service.
a.
in the pipe.
In 2006, the City shall repair the sewer line north of Mervyn's to remove the bow
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 oiAf' j 10
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 ofthe 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 drcuit 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 \Vest. 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 \Vestfield 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 9 oV lip
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 Quality 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 Emergency 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 Lighting 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 Recycling 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~J ~
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, conveyor take any other similar action regarding real property interests in the
PI:operty or any financing thereto shall not be infringed by this Agreement, provided, however,
that any such sale, transfer, sale, lease, etc. shall be subject to the terms and conditions, rights
and obligations ofthis Agreement.
8.2 Obligations of Successors. This Agreement shall be binding upon all subsequent heirs,
successors, assigns, purchasers, owners, lessees or lessors and transferees of every nature and
kind. Upon transfer of all interest in the Property, Owner/W estfield shall be released from all
obligations under this Agreement.
8.3 Estoppel Certificate. The Owner or Westfield may, at any time, and from time to time,

thirty (30) days following the receipt thereof. The City shall have the right to execute any
certificate requested by the Owner or Westfield hereunder. The City shall not have any liability
to the requesting Party or to any third party for inaccurate information if it provides the estoppel
certificate in good faith and with reasonable care.

9.1 Binding Nature. Once executed, this Agreement shall be binding on the Parties to this
Agreement and their heirs, successors and assigns, from the effective date through the term of
the Agreement.
9.2 Modification or Termination of Agreement.
a. This Agreement may be modified or terminated only upon the mutual written
agreement of the City Council, Westfield and the Owner and its successors, and/or assigns.
b. In addition, this Agreement shall be deemed terminated and of no further force
and effect upon the completion of the Project in accordance with the terms and conditions of this
Agreement, including issuance of all required occupancy permits.
9.3 Other Agreements. The Parties acknowledge that this Agreement contains the entire
agreement between the Parties with respect to the development of the Project.
Page 11 of~ 1ft;

component parts shall be the Superior Court of King County. This Agreement shall be governed
and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Washington.

Agreement, the non-defaulting Party or Parties shall be entitled to pursue specific performance
against the defaulting Party. The Parties acknowledge that money damages and remedies at law
generally are inadequate and specific performance and other non-monetary relief are particularly
