RECOMMENDATION: Review the enclosed Draft Springbrook Creek Wetland and Habitat Mitigation Bank Prospectus and indicate if you support proceeding with the development of a Mitigation Banking Instrument with the required state and federal agencies in coordination with WSDOT and their Early Environmental Investments program. Identify any concerns or future planned uses for the properties proposed for inclusion in the Bank that need to be considered during the development of the Mitigation Banking Instrument for these sites. BACKGROUND SUMMARY: In 1992, the Glacier Park Company donated two parcels of property to the City for use in creating a wetland mitigation bank in exchange for the City granting the Glacier Park Company wetland fill permits for up to 4.11 acres of wetlands on six other parcels of property owned by the Glacier Park Company that they were selling. In addition, the City acquired other parcels of property from the Glacier Park Company, which were purchased by the Surface Water Utility, the Parks Division and the Transportation Division. The July 13, 2004 Page 2 Burlington Northern Company also donated a 20-acre parcel of land to the City in the mid- 1970's as part of a rezone and fill permits that they owned due to concerns about impacts to the floodplain and wildlife. The table below, along with the attached Wetland Mitigation Bank Sites map, shows the different parcels and provides information about who purchased or has an interest in these parcels along with the approximate size of each parcel.

TOTAL 136.56 The Surface Water Utility in coordination with WSDOT proposes to work with the required state and federal agencies to develop a Mitigation Banking Instrument (MBI) that covers these parcels. The MBI would allow wetland creation, restoration, enhancement and preservation credits to be created on these parcel and sold to other public or private parties that have projects with wetland impacts. WSDOT, in partnership with the City of Renton Surface Water Utility, will work with all of the required state and federal agencies that have to approve a mitigation bank instrument for these properties. WSDOT has developed wetland mitigation banking projects before and have an established working group of all the agencies for the review and approval of wetland mitigation banking program agreements. This would be a benefit to us, since we would not HAFile Sys\SWP - Surface Water Projects\SWP-27 - Surface Water Projects (CIP)\27-3170 Springbrook Creek Wetland and Habitat Bank\1003 City Correspondence\City Review Issue.doc\RStp July 13, 2004 Page 3 likely to be more willing to work with WSDOT due to the established working relationship than they would be in working with Renton. WSDOT also has wetland technical experts on staff with experience in working with the agencies and could respond better to the need for new technical information that may be requested by the reviewing agencies. WSDOT will work in partnership with Renton to get a MBI for the proposed sites approved by the agencies. The City would provide them with the technical information that the Surface Water Utility has already developed for the Glacier Park Company wetland mitigation bank sites and the hydrologic and hydraulic modeling of Springbrook Creek and of the valley drainage. In exchange, the City would allow WSDOT to use a set amount of area (to be determined) within the total bank area to construct their Early Environmental Investments program. The remaining area is available for the City to use for our own wetland mitigation that may be needed for our CIP or TIP projects (Springbook Creek Channel Improvement Project, Strander/SW 27th TIP, Springbrook Trail). Wetland Mitigation Bank credits could also be sold to private property owners that are developing their property. The development community could be allowed to fill lower valued wetlands on their property in exchange for wetlands being created within our Wetland Mitigation Bank Sites. This would allow development projects to build more improvements on their property, since they would not have to do wetland mitigation on -site. The increased level of development on the private property will increase assessed valuations for those private properties, which will increase the City's General Fund property tax revenues. Other City revenues could be increased (employee tax, sales tax) depending upon the type of development. It is anticipated that there are sufficient customers (City, WSDOT, private property owners) that all of the credits in the Wetland Mitigation Bank would eventually be utilized. Enclosed for your review is the Draft Springbrook Creek Wetland and Habitat Mitigation Bank Prospectus that has been prepared by WSDOT and the Surface Water Utility. The Draft Prospectus will be provided to the WSDOT Wetland Mitigation Bank Oversight Committee that includes members from various state and federal agencies that have to approve Mitigation Banking Instruments. The total area for the Bank identified in the Prospectus is less than the total area listed in the table above due to some area being removed to account for existing mitigation that has already occurred on Site C3 and potential road widening or planned trail along Springbrook Creek. Please review the Prospectus and indicate if you support this concept and moving the effort forward. If you support this effort, provide the Surface Water Utility with any comments or issues that need to be considered if we proceed with developing a Wetland Mitigation Bank for these sites. As we work with the agencies to develop the Mitigation Banking Instrument, more detailed information will be prepared for your review. The City will ultimately have to sign the Mitigation Banking Instrument that will define all of the requirements associated with the Bank. Also enclosed is a Letter of Understanding from WSDOT supporting our partnership and effort to develop a Mitigation Banking Instrument for the proposed City owned properties.

This Bank is potentially the win -win environmental benefit project that the I405 Executive Committee envisioned as an early environmental investment. This letter documents our mutual commitment to continue working together towards our final partnering agreement and the Mitigation Banking Instrument (MBI). WSDOT and the City expect the Bank to yield mitigation credit that will cover WSDOT projects as well as City of Renton client needs in the Service Area. The total credits that will be available will be reviewed by the Statewide Bank Oversight Committee (BOC) and controlled by the City. The details related to credit release and distribution, design, construction, operations and maintenance, and other responsibilities will be laid out in the future partnering agreement and the MBI. In general, it is expected that WSDOT will design the Bank in coordination and cooperation with the City. WSDOT will construct at least part of the Bank as well as monitor the Bank until the performance standards are met. It is also generally expected that the City will operate and maintain the site once it is constructed. The above statements do not preclude the City or WSDOT from choosing or agreeing to fund or implement any work, activities, and projects associated with the Bank. Our goal is to construct the Bank in the 2005-2007 Biennium. To this end, the I-405 Team and the City have a demanding schedule ahead of them. Key milestones are: Summer 2004 Conduct Field Studies September 2004 Bank Oversight Committee (BOC) Review Finalize Project Management Plan (PMP) Finalize Design Report Fall 2004 Finalize Partnering Agreement Prepare Permit Applications Spring 2005 Complete Site Design Finalize MBI Obtain Permits July 2005 — June 2007 Advertise, Award, and Construct Project Springbrook LOU Gregg Zimmerman, Planning/Building/Public Works Administrator City of Renton Page 2 June 30, 2004 The Project Management Plan will include scope of work, schedule, communication plan, work sharing agreements, other draft agreements, permitting work processes, organization, schedule, and any style guidance and standards for products. Thank you for this opportunity to express I-405 Team's excitement about the Springbrook Bank. I am asking for continued partnership in development of this Bank with mutual benefit to the City and WSDOT. Sincerely, Stacy C. Trussler, P.E. I-405 Project Manager deb ' kbn Straka, City of Renton Surface Water Engineer Sandra Meyer, City of Renton Transportation Systems Director Nick Afzali, City of Renton Transportation Planning and Programming Supervisor Craig Stone, I405 Project Director Kim Henry, I405 Chief Engineer Ross Fenton, I405 Contract Manager Christina Martinez, I-405 Environmental Lead Sharon Wright, I405 Environmental Project Manager SCT:slw Springbrook Creek Wetland and Habitat Mitigation Bank Renton, WA Prospectus 1.0 Introduction and Purpose The proposal is to establish a mitigation bank by restoring, enhancing, creating, and preserving approximately 130 acres of wetland, buffer, and riparian areas on five parcels located in the southwest portion of Renton, Washington. Together, these five parcels make up the Springbrook Creek Wetland and Habitat Mitigation Bank (The Bank). The Bank would be developed by the Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) and the City of Renton. By agreement The Bank would provide compensatory mitigation for unavoidable impacts caused by the Interstate 405 (1-405) Congestion Relief and Bus Rapid Transit Projects in the service area of the bank. Excess credits would be administered by the City of Renton to meet other mitigation requirements within the service area of this bank. The project is being created as an Early Environmental Investments (EEI) project under the 1-405 Congestion Relief and Bus Rapid Transit Projects. The City of Renton owns the five parcels that comprise the 130-acre bank in the Springbrook Creek drainage as shown on Figure 1. The Bank will be established through the Bank Oversight Committee (BOC). The "Washington State Department of Transportation Wetland Compensation Bank Program Memorandum of Agreement" (1994) provides the principles and procedures that all the signatories have agreed to adhere to in establishing, implementing, and maintaining WSDOT wetland mitigation banks. The Bank will also be based on the Federal Guidance for the Establishment, Use and Operation of Mitigation Banks and the Washington State Draft Rule on Wetland Mitigation Banking (WAC 173-700). Representatives from the following agencies comprise the Bank Oversight Committee (BOC) that will coordinate with WSDOT in the development and approval of the Mitigation Bank Instrument (MBI): • U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Seattle District (Corps) • U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) • U.S. National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) • Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) • Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) • Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW) Renton Revised Springbrook Mit Bank Prospectus-0 1.doc 1 • Washington Department of Ecology (WDOE) • City of Renton (City) 2.0 Ecological Goals and Objectives The goal of the project is to improve ecological functions and values on the 130 acres provided at the five parcels. The Bank represents some of the few remaining large tracts of available habitat in the Lower Green River Basin that includes Renton, Kent, and the Auburn valley. WSDOT, in partnership with the City of Renton, would restore, rehabilitate, re-establish, and enhance wetland, enhance riparian habitat, and enhance upland buffer area. These activities would significantly increase wildlife habitat function, improve degraded water quality, restore flood storage, increase fish rearing/refuge habitat, provide positive effects to stream health, and help control human intrusion and ongoing habitat degradation. 3.0 Site Location The mitigation bank is comprised of 5 parcels located in Renton, Washington, south of SW 27th Street and west of Lind Avenue SW (Figure 1). The five parcels are described in the following paragraphs. Some of the parcels have been divided into "east" and "west" sites to better facilitate discussion of the proposal. Parcel A is the same as Site A and is located between SW 27th Street, and SW 34th Street, west of Lind Avenue and east of Springbrook Creek. The site covers 24.4 acres and is bordered along its northern and eastern sides by arterials serving industrial activities. The southern boundary is an undeveloped road right-of-way adjacent to developing industrial zoned property. Parcel B was split into Sites Be and Bw. Parcel B is located immediately south of SW 27th Street, adjacent to the west bank of Springbrook Creek, east of Oakesdale Avenue SW and north of the Seattle Times property. The 38.4-acre site is bounded on the north and south by industrial development and on the east and west by adjacent conservation wetland areas. Parcel C was split into Sites Ce and Cw. Parcel C is located between SW 34th Street and the Boeing Longacres Park conservation site, east of the Burlington Northern Santa Fe (BNSF) Railroad, and west of Oakesdale Avenue SW. The parcel is 48.4 acres and is zoned partially industrial and partially resource conservation. It is bordered along the southern boundary by BNSF Railroad land, which is half developed for car shipments and the remainder vacant property zoned for industrial development. Parcel D is the same as Site D. It is a 5.7-acre site located immediately north of the City of Tukwila's 180th Street grade separation project wetland mitigation site and east of the BNSF Railroad. Parcel E is located south of SW 34th Street, west of Springbrook Creek, north of SW 41 st Street, and east of Oakesdale Avenue SW. It is bordered to the north by developed light industrial zoned land. The site covers 13.9 acres. Renton Revised Springbrook Mit Bank Prospectus-0 I.doc 2 4.0 Rationale for Site Selection The 130 acres provided by the five parcels provide an excellent opportunity to improve and preserve the wetland and stream functions in the Springbrook Creek drainage and the Renton, Kent, and Tukwila areas. Approximately 37 wetlands occur within the Black River Drainage Basin and the majority of these occur within the Renton City limits. Of these, 20 wetlands (54 percent) are rated as Category 3 wetlands, 11 (30 percent) are rated as Category 2 wetlands, and 3 (8 percent) are rated as Category 1 wetlands. Approximately 7 percent of wetlands inventoried in the City are not categorized (Parametrix, Inc., 2002). The five sites considered in this bank, along with other private lands with restrictive conservation easements, would form an important corridor of valuable protected habitat in a valley undergoing significant development. The proposed bank is located adjacent to a sustained water sources. The primary water sources include groundwater, Springbrook Creek and surface water runoff from tributary areas that drain through or into the proposed Bank sites. Additional water sources that are being considered include the groundwater that is pumped from Tukwila's grade separation project under drain system at SW 180th Street, and a potential source from a similar proposed grade separation project at SW Strander Boulevard. The restoration and enhancement activities planned for the Springbrook Environmental Investment Mitigation Bank would specifically address the following factors: • Provide compensatory mitigation for impacts to aquatic resources caused by the 1-405 Congestion Relief and Bus Rapid Transit Project, as allowed by the Bank Service Area definition. • Protect, restore, and enhance watershed processes that create habitat characteristics for wildlife, improve water quality, and restore riparian functions in the Springbrook Creek corridor of the Black River Drainage Basin. • Protect, restore and enhance floodplain storage to protect stream resources from peak flows, improve water quality and salmonid rearing and refuge habitat. • Preserve, restore and enhance habitat that is available for migratory birds. • Maintain connectivity between high -quality wetland habitats to allow for wildlife population expansion and migration. • Create wetlands or buffers adjacent to existing wetlands to compliment and protect their functions. • Develop the features of the site to compliment enhancement and protection of wetland resources on adjacent conservation areas. • Improve the overall wetland functions within the Springbrook Creek sub -basin to be self -maintaining with minimum maintenance and human intervention. Renton Revised Springbrook Mit Bank Prospectus-0 1. doc 3 The Bank sites are located in the flight line of a great blue heron nesting colony and a feeding location. Herons were observed flying above the study area to an unknown feeding location during the spring 2004 field surveys. The heron nesting colony is located approximately 2 miles north of the mitigation sites at the Black River Riparian Forest adjacent to the Black River Pump Station. This nesting colony is considered to be the largest great blue heron nesting area in the tri-county area (King, Snohomish, and Pierce counties). The Bank sites provide additional habitat for a variety of other wildlife. Native birds such as red-tailed hawk, great horned owl, hooded merganser, song sparrow, and neo- tropical migrants such as common yellowthroat, Wilson's warbler, American goldfinch, and western tanager all live in the riparian forests and forage in the adjacent open habitats. Species such as Cooper's hawk and American kestrel hunt in the open fields adjacent to the wetland areas. Mammals such as coyote, raccoon, muskrat, mink, vole, and Pacific shrew likely utilize these areas. The Bank is also located within the migratory bird flyway and could be used by geese, ducks and other migratory birds. Coho salmon have been stocked in Springbrook Creek and its tributaries since 1976. Springbrook Creek is also used by salmonids. Between 1981 and 1992, an average of 96,000 coho salmon fingerlings were released upstream in Mill Creek (Harza Northwest, 1995). A fisheries enhancement project has been stocking coho salmon in Springbrook Creek since 1995. 5.3 Vegetation Communities 5.3.1 Scrub -Shrub Wetland (Willow) Scrub -shrub wetland areas are dominated by willow and other woody vegetation under 20 feet tall and include open water (seasonal or year-round). This habitat type occurs in all five mitigation sites. Dominant plants in this area include red alder; red -osier dogwood; broadleaved cattail; Douglas spirea; reed canarygrass; field horsetail; brooklime; creeping bentgrass; water smartweed; and Pacific, Scouler, and Sitka willow. Typical wildlife species that are likely to occur here include raccoon, striped skunk; vole, coyote, muskrat, mink; song sparrow, American robin, yellow-rumped warbler, common yellowthroat, Wilson's warbler, red -winged blackbird, willow flycatcher, northwestern salamander, Pacific chorus frog, and common garter snake. 5.3.2 Blackberry Shrub The blackberry shrub habitat type is comprised of low shrubs and forbs, including Himalayan blackberry, snowberry, baldhip rose, stinging nettle, salmonberry, red -osier dogwood, and reed canarygrass. This habitat type is present at all five mitigation sites. This habitat type contains less structural and species diversity than other habitat types present within the mitigation sites. It also provides low forage and habitat values for wildlife and attracts mainly non-native species that are tolerant of human disturbance. Renton Revised Springbrook Mit Bank Prospectus-0 I. doc Typical wildlife species that may occur in this habitat type include coyote, eastern cottontail rabbit, Norway rat, American crow, house sparrow, song sparrow, American robin, violet -green swallow, house finch, American goldfinch, European starling, and black -capped chickadee. 5.3.3 Reed Canarygrass The dominant plant species in this habitat type include reed canarygrass and willows. This habitat type offers little structural or species diversity and therefore attracts fewer wildlife species than habitats with more diversity. Wildlife species that may occur in this habitat type include garter snake, song sparrow, marsh wren, violet -green swallow, house finch, brown -headed cowbird, European starling, and common yellowthroat. 5.3.4 Disturbed/Fill This habitat type occurs in areas that have been cleared or where fill has been placed. Sites E and C contain both fill and disturbed habitat. Plant species at these sites include a dominance of weedy, invasive forbs such as common tansy, thistle, field horsetail, bedstraw, reed canarygrass, Scot's broom, common plantain, and dandelion. Wildlife species that frequent this habitat type are usually associated with disturbed and human -populated areas. The species include American crow, American robin, killdeer, striped skunk, and house sparrows. 5.3.5 Riparian Habitat Riparian habitat provides critical habitat for a diverse assemblage of fish and wildlife species indigenous to the Pacific Northwest. Riparian habitat occupies a transition zone which is distinguished from the upland areas by a difference in topography, soils and hydrologic regime. The plant community exhibits structural and species diversity, which provides water quality benefits and stream bank stability by moderating seasonal and storm flooding intensities. The plant community provides water storage with delayed release, ameliorates stream temperature fluctuations, provides a source of organic matter, and serves as a sink for sediments and nutrients moving off of the upland environment. Species typically associated with the riparian habitat include black cottonwood, red -osier dogwood, red elderberry, salmonberry, Pacific willow, Oregon ash, Douglas spirea, cattails, and various grasses. Wildlife species that frequent this habitat include coyote, vole, muskrat, raccoon, Wilson's warbler, yellow-rumped warbler, song sparrow, American goldfinch, red-tailed hawk, warbling vireo, and black -headed grosbeak. An active red-tailed hawk nest was identified on the northern edge of Site C. 5.4 Hydrology Because of past channeling of Springbrook Creek and filling/grading at most of the five mitigation bank sites, Springbrook Creek has little influence on hydrology at these sites. Renton Revised Springbrook Mit Bank Prospectus-0 1.doc Flooding of Springbrook Creek onto any portion of these sites is considered a rare event and does not occur on a seasonal basis. Existing wetlands are primarily maintained by direct precipitation (Parametrix, Inc., 2002). Existing ditches direct excess surface water away from these sites and toward Springbrook Creek, which further limits the extent of wetland hydrology. Groundwater significantly influences site hydrology where little to no fill occurs. This primarily includes the wetlands on Sites A and B. However, the seasonally high groundwater level remains several feet below the surface at Site C, which relies primarily on precipitation for wetland hydrology (Parametrix, Inc., 2002). Relatively low groundwater levels are also presumed to exist at Site E where fill has been placed over much of the site. 6.0 Service Area The City of Renton Wetlands Management Ordinance requires that any offsite wetland compensation approved by the City shall occur within the same drainage basin where the wetland loss occurred. The Springbrook Creek Wetland and Habitat Mitigation Bank sites are located within the Black River Drainage Basin, a tributary to the Green River. Therefore, for impacts to wetlands within the City of Renton, the service area for the Springbrook Creek Wetland and Habitat Mitigation Bank would correspond to the Black River Drainage Basin within the City of Renton's city limits with exception for WSDOT projects benefiting Renton. Wetland impacts from projects that occur outside of the City of Renton's jurisdiction which are eligible for use of the bank credits may be afforded a larger service area, as shown in Figure 2. In addition, the City would prioritize projects selected to use bank credits based on the following list of project selection criteria: 1. WSDOT project impacts associated with the South Renton 1-405 Project, including impacts located inside and outside of the Black River Basin. 2. Impacts that occur in the City of Renton valley floor area, within the Black River Basin, which are associated with City of Renton projects or private projects. 3. Impacts that occur within the City of Renton but that are in the foothills above the valley floor within the Black River Basin. 4. WSDOT project impacts associated with SR-167 improvements within Renton. 5. WSDOT project impacts associated with the North Renton 1-405 Project impacts within Renton that are not mitigated on -site and would otherwise be mitigated for outside of Renton. 6. WSDOT project impacts associated with SR-167 Improvements within the Black River Basin, but outside of Renton. 7. Other WSDOT project impacts that occur within the Black River Basin. 8. Other impacts within the Black River Drainage Basin that occur outside of Renton in other jurisdictions. These impacts can only be mitigated for in the Bank, after it is confirmed that impacts meeting criteria 1-7 have fully utilized the Bank. Impacts associated with public projects would be given priority over impacts associated with private project under this criterion. Renton Revised Springbrook Mit Bank Prospectus-0 1. doc 8 7.0 Protective Covenant and Partnerships The bank would be managed to maximize fulfillment of mitigation bank goals and objectives by ensuring the long-term protection of wetland and buffer areas. Short- and long-term management of the site would focus on maintaining native plant communities and wildlife habitat diversity. A Memorandum of Agreement and Conservation Easement, in addition to the Mitigation Bank Instrument (MBI), would be established to ensure that the Springbrook Creek Wetland and Habitat Mitigation Bank would be managed and maintained to protect wetland and wildlife habitat functions and educational values of the wetland. These documents would address the roles and responsibilities of the City of Renton and WSDOT in managing and maintaining the bank site. WSDOT and Renton would record an MBI agreement and a conservation easement over the sites included in the Bank to ensure that the bank site cannot be modified without the written consent of the City of Renton and other signatory agencies. 8.0 Conceptual Site Design 8.1 General Concepts 8.1.1 Buffer Enhancement Diversify vegetated areas. Much of the existing buffer areas are dominated by non-native shrub and herbaceous plant species. As a result, they provide minimal wetland buffer functions. Non-native invasive species such as Himalayan blackberry can be removed and replaced by plantings of native trees and shrubs. This would improve buffer functions by increasing habitat diversity and aesthetics provided by these areas. Improve soil conditions within buffers. Topsoil would be replaced where fill material currently exists to improve soil conditions. Topsoil replacement could directly benefit small mammals and invertebrates, and would indirectly benefit numerous species by improving the plant growth medium. Increasing small mammal production may benefit nesting and wintering heron, hawk, and fur -bearing mammal species. 8.1.2 Wetland Enhancement • Develop microhabitat conditions. Large woody debris, rock piles, and brush thickets are lacking at the sites. These habitat features could be placed throughout the wetland areas to benefit invertebrate production, soil development, and small animal habitat. Renton Revised Springbrook Mit Bank Prospectus v11.doc Diversify existing plant communities. Overall, the plant communities that occur on the sites lack complexity; they have developed as a result of past disturbance and do not represent native conditions. A more diverse assemblage of native trees and shrubs could be planted to augment or replace the existing vegetation. Portions of wetland habitat dominated by reed canarygrass could be planted with native shrub and tree species that would eventually increase shade to make conditions less tolerant for reed canarygrass. Replacement of reed canarygrass with native trees and shrubs would help diversify habitat conditions. Develop structural habitat. All of the five mitigation sites lack snags. Snags could be installed or created throughout the area to provide nesting areas for birds, den areas for mammals, and foraging and perch areas for birds. Nest boxes, nesting platforms, or other structures could also be constructed to benefit nesting birds. The cottonwood forest near the center of Site C could even be promoted as a potential heron nesting colony site with proper planning and additional site habitat improvements. 8.1.3 Wetland Enhancement • Excavate fill. Portions of the sites have been filled in the past and are not wetland. Where appropriate, fill material may be removed to a depth that allows groundwater to influence plant growth and restore wetland conditions. • Impound surface water. An existing ditch system connects most wetlands to Springbrook Creek. By slowing the discharge of water through these ditches, wetland hydrology can be established where it is currently lacking. Hydrology in existing wetlands could also be augmented to establish wetter conditions, if so desired. Introduce additional water. Redirecting surface water or using available groundwater sources may be another way to increase wetland habitat. Additional water and water -level management could help normalize the water hydroperiod within the wetlands and improve habitat conditions. If water was available longer during the growing season, additional native wetland plant species establishment may be promoted and overall wetland conditions would more closely resemble those present within native wetlands in the Puget Sound Basin. 8.1.4 Wetland Creation • Excavate uplands. Portions of the areas have become drier due to the altered hydrologic regime. Selected areas can be excavated and then flooded to provide additional wetland habitat. Renton Revised Springbrook Mit Bank Prospectus-0 1.doc 10 8.1.5 Wetland Rehabilitation Naturalize water regimes. Correcting conditions within wetlands and streams that have been created by rapid runoff from impervious surfaces, and then recreating hydroperiods that more accurately mimic natural hydrologic regimes, would dramatically affect habitat development at the sites. Naturalized water regimes would help promote native plant species diversity, soil development, and ultimately wildlife species' use of the sites. In general, the current hydrologic regime limits habitat development by introducing very high flows during storm events and then very low flows after a short period of time after the event. This simplifies habitat by killing woody vegetation and promoting species that can tolerate fluctuating water levels. These sites also tend to dry out earlier in the year than natural wetlands, which limits their utility to aquatic species and as a water source for terrestrial species. Holding water longer into the spring and diminishing the effect of stormwater- driven flows would help naturalize water regimes. 8.2 Specific Site Treatment Descriptions The activity descriptions that follow have been developed as a means to improve the habitat functions of the 130.8-acre Springbrook Creek Wetland and Habitat Mitigation Bank, shown on Springbrook Site Maps 1 and 2. This area represents one of the largest remaining tracts of undeveloped land in the Renton Green River Valley area. Its value to wildlife could increase through implementation of this proposal. One basic assumption is that the sites would be managed as a unit and that integrating this unique legacy into regional planning would help the project succeed. Some parcels adjacent to the project site may be incorporated into the management area at some time in the future. Consideration was given to future land use planning on each of the sites. Future right -of way for road widening, utilities, and trails were accommodated with buffers or other necessary area and not included in the treated acreages. 8.2.1 Site A Site A is located east of Springbrook Creek and is bounded by existing development on the south, Lind Avenue on the east; and 23rd Avenue on the north. The site occupies approximately 24.4 acres. The majority of the site is wetland that provides scrub -shrub and emergent habitat. Habitat conditions are now limited by invasive species such as reed canarygrass and by hydrologic impacts associated with highly -variable flows within Springbrook Creek that result from stormwater inputs. Only wetland enhancement activities are planned at the site. Topographic features would be created over 8.5 acres of the site. These areas would be constructed within reed canarygrass-dominated areas and would be planted with other native plant species, including conifers. Special habitat structures would be provided over 22.4 acres of the site. These may include large woody debris pile, brush piles, snags, rocks, or other suitable microhabitats. Approximately 4 acres of enhanced buffer vegetation would also be provided at Site A. Buffers would be enhanced to better shield the site from adjacent intensive land use and Renton Revised Springbrook Mit Bank Prospectus v11. doc 11 as upland habitat for wildlife using the wetlands. The flood storage benefits that currently exist on this site would be maintained. 8.2.2 Site Be Site Be is located west of Springbrook Creek. Part of the site is encumbered due to the Oakesdale Avenue mitigation developed on the parcel. It occupies approximately 15.5 acres, most of which is wetland that provides scrub -shrub and emergent habitat. Habitat conditions are currently limited by invasive species, such as reed canarygrass and by hydrologic impacts associated with highly -variable flows within Springbrook Creek that result from stormwater inputs. Only wetland enhancement activities are planned at the site. Topographic features would be created over 2.7 acres of the site. These areas would be constructed within reed canarygrass-dominated areas and would be planted with other native plant species, including conifers. Wetland buffers would also be enhanced over 1.8 acres of the site. Buffers would be enhanced at Site Be to better shield the site from adjacent intensive land use and as upland habitat for wildlife using the wetlands. 8.2.3 Site Bw Site Bw lies directly west of Site BE and occupies approximately 22.9 acres. The site is bordered on the north by SW 27th Street, on the south by a warehouse, and on the west by Oakesdale Avenue. Site Bw is mostly wetland that provides scrub -shrub and emergent wetland habitat. Habitat conditions are now limited by invasive species such as reed canarygrass and by hydrologic impacts associated with highly -variable flows caused by stormwater inputs. Water flows onto the site from west of Oakesdale Avenue and then flows to Springbrook Creek to the east. The wetland hydroperiod within Site Bw is determined by the water level within Springbrook Creek. As the water level falls within the creek, the wetland drains. Because of the existing configuration of Springbrook Creek, this wetland drains early in the growing season (around April), and this limits species diversity. To rehabilitate the water regime within the area defined as Site Bw, the water level would be managed along the eastern side of the site. This would be accomplished by constructing an adjustable weir along the edge on an old fill area that runs north to south in this area. Water would be retained longer into the growing season (mid June) to more accurately mimic natural regional conditions. The flood storage benefits that currently exist on this site would be maintained during the flood season. This change would facilitate plant species diversification and would allow habitat complexity. Management of the water regime would be enhanced by the potential addition of water within Site D and Site Ce, upstream of the site. Approximately 22.9 acres of the site would be rehabilitated under this proposal. Approximately 11.7 acres of the site would also be enhanced by adding structural habitat elements such as large woody debris, brush piles, rocks, other suitable microhabitats, or snags. These rehabilitation and enhancement activities would result in a site that has more open water habitat during the wet part of the year, has a more diverse shrub plant community, and which would provide structural habitat that is not currently available. Plant and animal species diversity and use are expected to increase at the site. Renton Revised Springbrook Mit Bank Prospectus-0 1. doc 12 8.2.4 Site Ce Site Ce is a 38.5-acre site located west of Oakesdale Avenue. A railroad car loading facility is located south of the site; vacant land occurs west and north of the site. Further north and west of Oakesdale Avenue is the Boeing Longacres facility. The site has been impacted by historic fill and disturbance. A ditch has been constructed through the site to convey water to the east. This ditch is 6 to 10 feet deep and 3 to 6 feet wide and has been in place for many years. Habitat conditions are now limited by the hydrologic effects of the ditch, invasive species that have become established at parts of the site, and by the fill soils which preclude natural vegetation establishment. Black cottonwood trees have become established on a portion of the site and these habitat areas would be preserved. The proposed activity includes rehabilitation of the hydrology affecting the site. Rehabilitation would be accomplished by eliminating the incised ditch, adding additional surface water collected at two grade -separation areas west of the site, if grade will allow, and by managing the outlet to the existing culvert under Oakesdale Avenue. The managed hydroperiod would seek to mimic natural conditions to support establishment of native wetland plant species. Rehabilitation would occur over approximately 27.5 acres of the site. Wetland restoration would occur over 7.3 acres of the site. This activity would include removing historic fill from the site and restoring wetland hydrology to the area. The restoration area would be planted and structural habitat elements would be installed. Water diverted to the site from the filled ditch and supplemental water sources would be used in conjunction with seasonally high groundwater to provide adequate hydrology. Wetland creation would occur over 3.6 acres of the site. This activity would include shallow excavations within upland blackberry areas and flooding these areas to create wetland conditions. The creation area would be planted and structural habitat elements would be installed. This activity would serve to diversify habitat conditions and limit invasive species. Habitat within the adjacent forest areas would also benefit from this activity. Wetland enhancement activities are planned over 27.5 acres of the site. This would include in -planting the rehabilitation area with conifers and other shade -tolerant species to accelerate canopy habitat complexity. With the proposed rehabilitation, restoration, creation, and enhancement activities, Site Ce would provide significantly higher quality habitat and would positively affect downstream water quality and delivery within Site Be and Springbrook Creek. 8.2.5 Site Cw Site Cw is located directly west of Site Ce. It is bordered on the west by an active railroad line, and on the north and south by vacant land. It occupies approximately 9.9 acres. The site is mostly upland, but is dominated by grass and some shrub vegetation. Habitat is limited at Site Cw by the draining effects of the incised ditch west of the site and invasive species (Himalayan Blackberry) that have become established at parts of the site. Wetland enhancement is the only proposed activity at Site Cw. Enhancement activities include developing microhabitat conditions over 1.6 acres of the site and planting tree and shrub vegetation over 8.3 acres of the site. Microhabitat would be introduced in the form of large woody debris and rocks. Plantings may include conifers Renton Revised Springbrook Mit Bank Prospectus-0 1. doc 13 and other species expected to improve habitat diversity over time. These activities would improve the buffer functions provided by this site, contribute to its function as a wildlife corridor, and increase long-term habitat diversification and species use. 8.2.6 Site D Site D is a 5.7-acre site located north of 180th Street. It is a portion of a City -owned parcel and it represents the top of the drainage basin that affects Sites Ce, Bw, and Be. A recently completed wetland restoration project (completed for the South 180th Grade Separation Project by the City of Tukwila) adjoins the site to the south; an active rail line occurs west; a warehouse development is east; and vacant land is north. Just north of the site there is a culvert under an active rail spur that conveys drainage north to Site Ce. The existing culvert configuration has created a pond on a portion of Site D. Habitat at the site is fairly well developed and invasive species are not a problem. The project would rehabilitate the water regime for the wetland pond at Site D and enable diversification of plant communities. Water now pumped to Springbrook Creek after treatment at the 1801h Grade Separation Project would be directed to Site D. The outlet culvert would be modified to allow water -level management. Rehabilitation activities would occur over 5.7 acres of the site and wetland enhancement would occur over 1.9 acres. Enhancement would include planting conifers in a forested part of the site to accelerate canopy habitat complexity. 8.2.7 Site E Site E is approximately 13.8 acres. It is a triangular parcel bordered on the east by Oakesdale Avenue, on the southeast by Springbrook Creek, and on the north by warehouse development. Habitat conditions are limited by ongoing disturbance, adjacent land use, and by flows within Springbrook Creek. The primary objective for activities planned at Site E is to enhance the flood storage function at the site. Excavation at the site would remove historic fill and allow waters within the creek to flood the site. This is expected to recreate wetland conditions at the site and allow room to store floodwater. The planned excavation would provide an expected 50 acre-feet of additional flood storage, which would decrease the need to modify flow conditions downstream of the site. The excavated area would also be designed to elevations that would restore wetland hydrology to 9.8 acres. Wetland buffers and structural habitat elements would be included in the wetland restoration activities. 8.2.8 Activity Summary A summary of the proposed activities for each site is provided on table 1. The table provides the recommended treatment for each site and resultant bank credit in acres expected to be generated by the treatment.

Totals 1 130.7 1 80.9 9.0 Potential Adverse Impacts to Aquatic Resources of Other Habitats from Bank Construction Restoring and enhancing wetland and buffer areas within Springbrook Creek Basin as described above is not anticipated to have any negative long-term effects on the aquatic resources in the basin, though there would be effects caused by construction and excavation activities. These impacts, primarily minor water quality impacts related to sediment control, are anticipated to be short term (one year or less during and immediately following construction activity). The actual duration of these minor impacts would be dependent on the schedule and phasing of construction. In the long run, these changes are anticipated to be positive in that ecological conditions and functions would improve on the site. Renton Revised Springbrook Mit Bank Prospectus-0 1.doc 15 10.0 Demonstration of Financial Assurance At least part of the financing for construction, operation, monitoring, and long-term management would be secured through the Nickel Funding Package for 1-405. Financing for the 1-405 EEI design has already been secured through the nickel gas tax funding. An Advanced Environmental Mitigation Revolving Account (AEMRA) loan is currently funding water resources coordination for the 1-405 program. 1-405 road projects would pay back into the account as transportation improvements are funded. 11.0 Monitoring, Long -Term Management and Reporting WSDOT's Wetland Mitigation Monitoring Program staff would conduct the site monitoring at the Springbrook Mitigation Bank. Monitoring allows WSDOT to track the development of a mitigation project over time, determine compliance with permits, and provides an important internal feedback role in mitigation site management and maintenance. WSDOT's Wetland Mitigation Monitoring Program uses a variety of monitoring methods. Quantitative data collection techniques are based on standard ecological and biostatistical methods. The configuration, placement, and number of sample units (e.g., belt transects, plots, lines, point -lines, point frames) required to address site -specific performance objectives would be based on characteristics observed in the vegetative community and patterns of plant distribution. Sample size analysis would be used to ensure data has been obtained from an adequate number of sample units to meet the sampling objectives. Monitoring reports would include a description of the methods and sampling designs used to monitor the bank site. WSDOT would prepare and submit annual monitoring reports that document progress toward achieving the performance standards, adaptive management actions, and that provide an overview of site progress. Maintenance of the Springbrook Bank includes those activities carried out on the site to protect it from conditions that may inhibit ecological goals and objectives. The City of Renton and WSDOT by agreement will establish responsibilities associated with all site maintenance activities for a period of 10 years or until all performance standards are met, whichever occurs later, once the requirements and costs are defined. Maintenance activities include, but are not limited to, weed control, trash removal, and vandalism repair. These activities are considered short-term maintenance. After performance standards are met, the City and WSDOT would continue to maintain the bank. Long-term maintenance (Year 10 through Year 30) would be conducted by the City of Renton and WSDOT to ensure that functional benefits of the mitigation activities are not degraded. The City would use monitoring results to identify necessary long-term maintenance activities. Management of the bank includes administrative actions to be taken by WSDOT and the City of Renton to ensure protection of the site. Any mitigation bank is vulnerable to acts of nature such as wildfires, climatic instability, and disease that are beyond the control of Renton Revised Springbrook Mit Bank Prospectus v1l.doc 16 the City of Renton and WSDOT. The occurrence of such an act may necessitate changes to the bank, including revision of the MBI, to allow for activities that would offset and counteract the negative environmental impacts of that act. Depending upon the circumstances, however, it may be appropriate to let nature take its course, particularly when acceptable environmental conditions would be expected to eventually re-establish. City of Renton and WSDOT, in coordination with the BOC, shall jointly determine what changes to the bank would be in the best interest of the bank and the aquatic environment. Any change to the bank necessitated by an act of nature beyond the control of Renton and WSDOT shall be specified in a revised MBI or other appropriate document and shall require approval of the BOC. 12.0 Anticipated Credit Release Schedule Credits would likely be released in phases according to a schedule to be negotiated within the BOC. At this time, we expect a yet -to -be -determined percentage of the total available wetland mitigation credits would be released once hydrology restoration work has been completed in Year 1. The remaining credits would be released every other year following this initial release, based primarily on the success of the plantings, with a minor percentage being released for the continued demonstration of hydrology improvements. 13.0 References Harza Northwest. 1995.

Warren RECEIVED PUBLIC WORKS DEPT. June 3, 1992 CITY OF RENTON TO: Lynn Guttmann, Administrator Department of Planning/Building/Public Works Sam Chastain, Parks & Recreation Director Dan Clements, Administrative Services Administrator Mary Lynne Myer, Principal Planner Priscilla Pierce, Administrative Analyst Iwen Wang, Accounting & Budgeting Director John Webley, Community Services Administrator FROM: Lawrence J. Warren, City Attorney �c�f�rzk. RE: Source of Funds for L64sw� Rives Purchase and Ownership of Parcels Dear Ladies and Gentlemen: A meeting was recently held to assign the ownership interests of the Glacier Park purchase to the appropriate city departments. The source of funds for the purchase was also discussed. The purpose of this memorandum is to memorialize the conclusions from that meeting and to provide a historical record of those conclusions for later reference. PARCEL NO Parcel No. 1 will be assigned to the stormwater utility. The purchase price was $50,000.00 in cash which will come from the stormwater utility and the balance of over $244,000.00 in LID assessment will come from the transportation CIP. The ownership is given to the stormwater utility subject to right-of-way described later in this paragraph as this parcel will provide flood storage, contains valuable wetlands and will provide water purification and groundwater recharge. The transportation CIP will own right-of-way for the 27th Street HOV lanes, and will obtain wetland mitigation rights within the bank. PARCELS NOS. 3 AND 4 Each parcel was assigned a purchase price of $25,000.00 for a total purchase price of $50,000.00. The source of the funds will be from Parks mitigation fees. Parks is paying for this purchase Post Office Box 626 - 100 S 2nd Street - Renton, Washington 98057 - (206) 255-8678 . 1f June 3, 1992 Page 2 as the parcels are adjacent to existing open space and to Springbrook Creek Trail. PARCEL NO. 13 This parcel will be paid from the stormwater utility. The parcel provides flood storage, water purification, groundwater recharge and contains some valuable wetlands. More importantly, it provides right-of-way for the P-9 Channel and right-of-way for the proposed P-1 Channel. It also presently provides drainage, flood management, and possibly some wetlands bank property. WETLAND MITIGATION PROPERTIES It may be possible that the city or third parties may wish to enhance or recreate wetlands on one or more of these four parcels which the city has purchased. If a third party wishes to use one of these parcels as part of the wetlands mitigation bank, the controlling city department must approve the concept. The controlling city department would then be credited with any cash contribution that would be made to access the parcel. If a city department wished to use another city department's land to enhance or recreate wetlands, then a separate agreement between those departments will be necessary to trace the funds, unless both of the sources of funds are the city's General Fund. Once again, approval of the controlling city department would be necessary. CZwrence J. arren LJW:as. cc: Mayor Earl Clymer Jay Covington A8.84:53. N PURCHASE AND SALE AGREEMENT This Agreement (the "Agreement") is by and between GLACIER PARK COMPANY, a Delaware corporation ("Seller"), and the CITY Or RENTON, a Washington municipal corporation and/or assigns ("Purchaser"). 1. Offer and Acceptance. Purchaser offers and agrees to purchase from Seller and Seller accepts such offer and agrees to sell and convey to Purchaser all of Seller's rights, title and interest in those parcels of land in Renton, King County, Washington, more particularly described in Exhibit A attached hereto and by this reference incorporated herein (the "Property"). 2. Purchase Price. The purchase price for the Property shall be Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($200,000). 3. Pavment of Purchase Price. The purchase price shall be payable in full in cash or by certified check at closing. 4. Deposit. Purchaser shall pay, as earnest money, to escrow agent upon the mutual execution of this Agreement a deposit ("Deposit") in the amount of Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000) as consideration for Seller withdrawing the Property from the market during the term of this Agreement. The Deposit shall be held in an interest bearing account, with all interest accruing to the party to whom the Deposit is released. The Deposit shall be nonrefundable except as herein provided. 5. Title and Title Insurance. Seller agrees to execute and deliver on the Date of Closing a quit claim deed conveying title to the Property to Purchaser. On the date herewith, Seller shall furnish Purchaser a preliminary title insurance commitment for standard coverage issued by Transamerica Title Insurance Company to include proper searches covering bankruptcies and state and federal judgments and liens. Purchaser shall have 10 calendar days from the receipt of the commitment for examination of title and the making of any objections thereto, all objections to be made in writing to Seller or they shall be deemed to be waived.

Exhibit B - Page 1 of 1 I CITY OF RENTON MEMORANDUM DATE: June 24, 1992 TO: File 7 FROM: Lyf 4 u ann SUBJECT: Wetlan Purchase from Glacier Park by the City of Renton The City of Renton purchased the Green River Valley Wetlands Parcels 1, 3, 4 and 13 as shown on the attached chart. During the negotiations for this purchase, the City agreed to pay $200,000 for all the acreage and Glacier Park agreed to either credit the City or pay $27,215 for the outstanding obligations related to a Board of Public Works bond for sidewalk and landscaping improvements on these particular parcels. The payment of the $27,215 was not specifically called out in the agreement between Glacier Park Company and the City of Renton, nor was the $27,215 credited against the $200,000. That transaction was omitted in the official paper work. When this oversight was noted on June 23, 1992, Karen Lane, Vice President of Glacier Park, reiterated their commitment to make that payment and subsequently submitted a check in the amount of $27,215 to cover the debt. After receipt of the check, the City released an agreement between the Trillium Corporation and the City of Renton, which in turn releases the total Board of Public Works bond in the amount of $578,000. This security had been posted for a series of street, sidewalk and landscaping improvements, part of which was the $27,215. The agreement also reiterated Trillium's obligation to install along the street frontage all sidewalks, curbs, and landscaping as part of any subsequent development. In conclusion, the following summarizes the transactions related to the $578,000 Board of Public Works bond: 1. Some portions of the improvement of the deferral bond were already completed. 2. The portion of the bond related to the properties donated by Glacier Park to the City of Renton as a Wetlands Mitigation were "forgiven" during the donation transaction. June 24, 1992 Page 2 3. The value of the sidewalk and landscaping improvements for the properties purchased by the City of Renton, Parcels 1, 3, 4 and 13 were relieved by Glacier Park's payment of $ 27, 215. 4. The obligation to complete the physical improvements in association with privately owned property, that is the property purchased by Trillium Corporation from Glacier Park, remains an obligation which is no longer secured by a deferral bond. Instead it is contained in the agreement signed by Trillium Corporation as part of Glacier Park/Trillium Corporation sales agreement, a copy of which is attached to this memo. cc: Mary Lynn Myer Mike Dotson Larry Warren Marilyn Petersen Pat Porter Board of Public Works Files 92419.DOC/I.AG/bh AGREEMENT THIS AGREEMENT is entered into this o3o"�,� day of , 1992 by and between TRILLIUM CORPORATION, a Washingt corporation ("Trillium"), and the CITY OF RENTON, a Washington municipal corporation (the "City"). Trillium is the owner of certain parcels of real property located in the City of Renton and more particularly described on Exhibit A attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference (the parcels are hereinafter referred to individually as the "Parcel" or collectively as the "Parcels"). The parcels were acquired from Glacier Park Company, a Delaware corporation ("GPC"). GPC has posted a bond with the City in order to assure the construction of certain sidewalk and landscaping improvements in conjunction with the development of the Parcels. GPC is in the process of liquidating its assets and dissolving as a corporation. In order to provide for the release of GPC from the obligations of the bond posted by it, and in order to assure the City that the landscaping and sidewalks are constructed in conjunction with the development of the Parcels, the parties agree: 1. As owner of the Parcels, Trillium covenants that prior to the issuance of the first certificate of occupancy for a development on any of the Parcels, the then owner of the Parcel shall install along the street frontage of the Parcel sidewalks and landscaping between the sidewalks and the curb in accordance with City standards. The City may withhold the certificate of occupancy until the sidewalks and landscaping are installed. 2. Upon execution of this Agreement, the City shall release GPC from any obligations under Contract Bond No. 400HN 7554 in the amount of $578,000.00, dated February 13, 1987 and issued by St. Paul Fire and Marine Insurance Company. 3. This agreement and the covenants contained herein shall run with the land and shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of Trillium. 4. This agreement may not be amended by the parties except in writing. 5. This agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the state of Washington.

Due to decisions made by their parent company, Glacier Park will liquidate their land holdings by May 1992. The City of Renton could benefit by: 1) working with the Corporation to establish a wetland mitigation bank on two parcels dedicated to the City and allowing other parcels to be filled and developed, and 2) purchasing other Glacier Park property. HISTORICAL BACKGROUND OF THE GLACIER PARK PLAT In the mid-1970s, Burlington Northern applied for permits to fill almost 60 acres of land in the Green River Valley. They concurrently petitioned the City for a rezone of much of that land from G-1 to M-P and H-1. During review of the fill and grade application and the rezone request, numerous concerns were raised about the impacts of these actions on wetlands, wildlife habitat and flood drainage plans in the Green River Valley. Responding to these concerns, Burlington Northern donated 20 acres of wetland to the City of Renton. The City was also given a one year option to purchase an additional 37 acres of adjacent wetlands. The fill and grade permits and the rezone were granted in 1976 and Burlington Northern subsequently submitted a preliminary plat proposal for the area. During the same time, several flood drainage alternatives were being evaluated for the East Side Green River Valley Watershed Plan. One of the alternative which was being evaluated included construction of the P-1 Channel. Another alternative which was being considered included expansion of Springbrook Creek. Memorandum to City Council April 9, 1992 Page 2 The plat proposal contained portions of the Proposed P-1 Channel and Springbrook Creek. Because the East Side Green River Valley Watershed Plan had not been completed or funded at the time, there was no acquisition or donation of parcels for the P-1 Channel. However, to preserve storm drainage options, several parcels corresponding the proposed P-1 Channel were specifically reserved by the final plat in perpetuity for wildlife habitat, public access and storm drainage purposes. In addition, the final plat extended the original option to purchase the additional 37 acres of wetland was extended until 1978. The final plats were approved with these conditions in the late 1970s. In August, 1979, the City Council decided that there was not enough funding available to purchase the additional acreage and released the option to purchase these wetlands. MITIGATION BANKING BACKGROUND: In April 1991, Renton staff investigated, the concept of mitigation banking for wetlands. During the focus group and other public involvement sessions for the wetlands ordinance, staff found wide spread approval of the bank concept by a number of land owners and agencies. The concept met with wide approval. Regulating agencies and wetlands scientists also believed a mitigation bank would have a great chance of success in the Valley due to the number of remaining natural factors. For example, removal of fill would allow for natural hydrology to reestablish, an historic seedbed is likely still present, the area continues to be a floodplain, a surprising amount of wildlife is still present in the Valley, and several of the bank parcels are at original elevation. In February of 1992, Glacier Park offered to establish a bank as mitigation for filling some of the Category III wetlands on six properties they would be selling in their May liquidation sale. The to -be -filled properties, under their proposal, would be the "sending" properties. The two parcels constituting the mitigation bank would be donated to the city and would act as "receiving" properties. THE PROPOSAL Of the over 20 properties in the original Glacier Park plat, eight remain undeveloped. Category III wetlands are found on six of these properties. In their present condition, these properties cannot be sold at a price commensurate with the other industrial properties. A wetlands bank would allow the properties to be sold for an increased price. Two undeveloped additional properties, also owned by Glacier Park, are suitable sites for establishment of a wetlands bank. These sites, partially filled, have historically established wetlands on the unfilled portions of the site. Fill can be removed to create new wetlands adjacent to existing ones thus establishing a mitigation bank area. All wetlands on "sending" and "receiving" properties have been delineated using methodologies acceptable to both the City and the Army Corps of Engineers. These delineations show a total of 5.33 acres of wetlands on the six parcels to be filled. A Memorandum to City Council April 9, 1992 Page 3 total of 25.55 acres of fill can be removed on the wetland bank area to provide replacement. Clearly, enough area is available in the bank site to allow for replacement of the wetlands at a ratio of 1.5 - 1 as required by the wetlands ordinance. (see Attachment B) CITY RESPONSIBILITY The Corporation proposal would donate the bank properties to the City of Renton in return for a wetlands permit for fill of the six properties to be sold. The City of Renton, as the recipient and owner, would be responsible for the reestablishment of the wetlands on the bank, for all performance bonds associated with these properties and for LID requirements. Any additional activity on the wetland "receiving" properties would be the responsibility of the City. The city would need to prepare a wetlands mitigation plan for the "receiving" properties and to obtain the necessary permits and approvals from agencies with jurisdictions. DISCUSSION: What functions would the wetland bank provide? ■Maximum economic development of the remaining Glacier Park parcels; ■Ecologically, environmentally sound replacement of wetlands, meeting requirements in the City's wetland ordinance; ■Maintenance of flood storage. This area is within the existing flood plain and experiences localized flooding. Additional wetlands could accommodate more flood inundation as the watershed develops. ■Create additional capacity to meet other wetland mitigation needs. Other property owners in the Valley could mitigate their development's adverse impacts on the wetlands through cash contributions, or in -kind replacement construction. City projects could also mitigate adverse wetland impacts through these bank sites; ■Convenient location for workers and citizens for both park and trail usage. ■Consolidation of wetlands, with higher functions and values than those filled. These consolidated areas would provide for greater wildlife habitat conserving some unique areas in the Valley. The mitigation sites would form part of greenbelt extending along Springbrook to the Black River forest. ■A unique, historical chance to provide a partnership between the public and private sectors to deal wisely with wetlands and economic development on a win -win basis. How would the wetland bank operate? Glacier Park would dedicate sites 1 and 2 (parcel #14 and part of 8) to the City as mitigation sites. These sites have Category 1 and 2 wetlands already on site and also have fill which can be removed to establish more wetlands. Sending properties, Memorandum to City Council April 9, 1992 Page 4 Parcels 2,5,6, 8w, 8e and 9, would have under one acre of Category 3 wetlands filled on each site (totaling 4.11 acres of proposed wetland fill). If the property owners wished to exceed the one acre fill, a total of 5.33 acres of wetlands are found on these sites. The replacement of wetlands would be accomplished on the mitigation bank site at a ratio of 1.5 to 1. (See attachment Cfor acreage totals.) As part of the sale of the sending properties, a notice would accompany the deed of sale stating that a specified amount of wetlands fill and mitigation through replacement has been agreed to by the City of Renton. Other requirements, such as storm drainage, street, utility and parks and recreation obligations would not be waived by this action for the properties anticipating development. The City would then be responsible for preparing and implementing a mitigation plan for wetlands reestablishment. What obligations would come with assumption of the wetland bank properties? The City would be responsible for setting up a mitigation plan for recreating wetlands. This would include an excavation plan, planting plans, timing and scheduling and implementation of the plans. Such a mitigation document could cost $40,000 to complete. Planting and necessary earth work, often costs $40,000 to $50,000 an acre. This involves excavating and disposal of fill, importing of other soils such as topsoil, acquisition and planning of vegetative material. Consultant costs of $30,000 would be incurred for one year to establish the plan, the bank, and its operating rules. A mitigation plan would be provided within one/two years, and planting costs for the entirr, 25 acres could be spaced over a 10-20 year period as needed to meet the demand. On -going staffing would be needed to provide continuity for the bank, monitoring for wetland reestablishment, and services for other valley land owners wishing to use the bank. What permitting responsibilities would the City have? The City would need to process a lot line adjustment for Mitigation Site 2 to set up the wetland bank prior to donation and sale of Glacier Park properties. A declaration of non -significance (mitigated) would have to be issued for each property for the filling of wetlands, assuming no other environmental impacts are found for the properties individually. Wetlands, vegetation removal, and fill and grade permits would be necessary to allow the new property owners to fill the wetlands designated on each site. [Fees for these permits could be assessed to Glacier Park, the new owners, or waived. It is recommended that fees be waived, allowing Glacier Park to realize some benefit from the dedication of land.] What costs would the City incur through the establishment of the mitigation bank? Because the land would be donated to the City, no land acquisition costs would be incurred. However, the City may be required to pick up closing costs from the transfer of the deeds. Memorandum to City Council April 9, 1992 Page 5 In addition, these properties may have LID, performance bond, and SUCC fees assessed against them. (Attachment D shows the assessments which the City may incur.) What possible funding sources could be used to offset the costs of acquiring the wetland bank propgrties and running the wetland bank? The wetland bank parcels would be donated to the City so no costs would be incurred for acquisition. Approximate costs for a mitigation plan and implementation of it follows: 1. A mitigation plan $40,000 2. Implementing the plan $40,000-50,000/acre 3. Consultant's fee 3$ 0.000 TOTAL $110,000 - $120,000 Funding for the plan and the implementation would come from a variety of sources: spark mitigation fees ■Metro mitigation funds ■TCIP funds ■LID funds ■ surface water utility rates ■possible Soil Conservation Services funds (if connected with flood control) ■donations of money from other developers in the watershed who wish to use the bank ■possible use of Open Space Bonds funds RECOMMENDATION We recommend that the Council concur to proceed with the mitigation bank, including the eventual acceptance of property. Memorandum to City Council April 9, 1992 Page 6 PURCHASE OF WETLAND PROPERTIES Three parcels available for purchase from Glacier Park may be of interest to the City. They are identified as parcels 1, 3, 4, and 13. Property Descriptions: Parcel 1 is large emergent and scrub -shrub wetland of approximately 28 acres. The wetland is likely a remnant of the original valley floor with the elevation being lower than the surrounding roads and development. Water sources to this wetland include regional groundwater, overbank flooding from Springbrook Creek, and sheetflow runoff from roads. The wetland has been rated high for groundwater discharge and recharge, flood storage capability, shoreline anchoring, water purification, and medium for food chain support and wildlife habitat in the recent Draft Report, Wetland Inventory, Black River Water Quality Management Plan/ESGRW. (12/91. Stormwater Division, City of Renton) A number of individuals working in the surrounding industries and offices use the area for passive -recreation. Parcels 3. 4 are located directly south of the wetlands which were dedicated to the City as a part of the final plat. This wetlands is an emergent scrub -shrub wetland with some open water of approximately 15 acres. The wetland is likely a remnant of the original valley floor as its elevation is also lower than the surrounding roads and development. Water sources to this wetland include regional groundwater, overbank flooding from Spripgbrook Creek, and sheetflow runoff from roads. The wetland is rated high for grotndwater recharge and discharge, flood storage capacity shoreline anchoring, water purification and medium for flood chain support and wildlife habitat. It is functionally and visually connected with the Renton wetlands, and has the same functions as the large wetland to the east. A right of way in the form of a dirt road runs through the wetland and is used for passive recreation. This wetland has an easement on it for drainage purposes for the Seattle Times site. although its ownership remains with Glacier Park. Parcel 1, and 3 & 4 are integral for the flood control and water quality of the Valley. It is estimated that structural replacement of the functions of these wetlands for flood control alone would cost the City approximately $1-3 million dollars. These two wetlands are essential for any future flood control and/or storm water programs within the Valley. City interests would be best served by ownership control. Parcel 13 includes the proposed alignment for the P-1 Channel west of Oakesdale and south along the Burlington Northern tracks. This alignment is interspersed with wetlands and uplands. It also may be at original grade. However, it does not have the diverse habitat that is present in the other Glacier Parcel mitigation bank sites and the two wetland sites to the east. This area has not been assessed for wetland categories or functions and values through either the stormwater inventory or the Glacier Park inventory. However, it is clear that a number of wetland and upland sites are present. It is likely this area could have a number of uses if purchased: ■P-1 Channel alignment ■additional mitigation bank sites Memorandum to City Council April 9, 1992 Page 7 ■location for future light rail stations and land uses if this rail alignment is chosen for regional use ■additional industrial land PURCHASE ISSUES What responsibilities would the city incur from purchase of Parcels 1, 3 & 4, and 13? The City would become responsible for the maintenance and liability issues of wetlands on these parcels. Parcel 1 wetlands could be enhanced for flood storage and wildlife habitat by removal of invasive plant species which are choking out native plants. However, this is a lower priority task and could be accomplished over a number of years. Parcels 3 & 4 and 13 would necessitate the same responsibility and liabilities as found with ownership of any open space area. What costs would the City incur from purchase of these parcels? The amount of purchase price is ostensibly reduced because of the presence of wetlands on site, and/or the inaccessibility of Parcel 13. Also, because these are being liquidated by the Company, certain financial benefits are accrued to the seller. Acreage cost§ for these parcels are approximately $2,500/acre. Parcel 1 was offered to the City for purchase price of $10,000 per acre in 1978. Preliminary appraisals confirm the $2,500/acre asking price; but the appraisal values of wetlands would be checked using the same methods as the Panther Creek wetland appraisals. Other City fees such as SUCC fees would not be an issue for these parcels, as no improvements would be put on site. Tax assessments on the12arcels have been reduced as of January 1992. Glacier Park app�j,aled the tax assessment based on the preponderance of wetlands on site. Assessments were reduced by 50%. TOTAL PURCHASE COSTS: $444,720 (see Attachment D) RECOMMENDATIONS: Authorization to proceed with purchase of parcels 1, 3 & 4, and 13. Funding will be accomplished by borrowing internally for the short term outlay. Pay back will be through park mitigation fees, mitigation bank cast contributions, LID TIP, Metro mitigation, storm utility fees, possible Open Space Bond funding, and CIP.

Achieve "no net loss" of wetlands being replaced. 2. Function within the same drainage basin as the wetlands being replaced. 3. Perpetuate the existing functions and values of Valley wetlands and may increase the functions and values of the wetlands. 4. Protect wetlands and other environmentally sensitive areas associated with the sending and receiving properties in a manner consistent with local ordinances. 5. Consolidate in one or two locations a replacement area for many scattered wetlands. 6. Promote joint agreements between the City and property owner for mechanism and running of the bank. 7. Conform to City ordinances and state regulations concerning wetlands. S. Increase the property owner's ability to use the sending properties for the uses specified in City ordinances and plans. 9. Encourage public access to wetlands for use when sensitive habitats are protected. 10. Incorporate monitoring plans and methods for evaluation of its effectiveness which may be used to change the bank to provide remedies for problems and/or deficiencies.

It is assumed that the. Title Report for these sites will be more comprehensive in detailing any restrictions placed on these lands. The Springbrook Creek Wetland and Habitat Bank sites are designated A, B, C, D and E and are composed of parcels of land that have been either donated to the City or purchased directly by the City. Figure I is a map that identifies each bank site including parcels within the sites. Site A Site A is located on aparcel that was sold to the City Surface Water Utility through a Purchase and Sale Agreement by the Glacier Park Co. in 1992. The parcel is designated as Parcel A. Under the City's current zoning map, effective November 10, 2004, this parcel is zoned Resource Conservation (RC). If the City were to surplus and sell this parcel, it would be re -zoned from Resource Conserving (RC) to either Light Industrial (IL) or Medium Industrial (IM), to be the same as the surrounding parcels. Any development would need to comply with all local; state and federal regulations and permits. Site-B Site B is composed of four City owned parcels. The largest of these parcels is a square shaped piece of approximately 20 acres that abuts SW 27'h Street to the north. This parcel was donated to the City by the Burlington Northern Co. The parcel is encumbered by. an approximately 2.0` acre strip of land running north -south through the middle of the parcel that is a dedicated wetland mitigation site for the Oakesdale Ave Extension Project. The south and west side of Site B is made up of City owned Parcels A, B and 1 B. These parcels were purchased from the Glacier Park Co. as part of the 1992 Purchase and Sale Agreement. If these parcels were to be developed, they would be rezoned to same as Site A; either light or medium industrial. Site C Site C is composed of two City parcels. The "L" shaped parcel along the west and north parameter of Site E and a large rectangular piece: 1055 South Grady Way - Renton, Washington 98055 RENTON ® This paper contains 50 % recycled material, 301% post consumer _ _ AHEAD OF THE CURVE November 30, 2004 Page 2 The "L" shaped parcel is part of a larger parcel of land purchased from the Glacier Park Co. by the City Surface Water Utility in 1992 (designated Parcel 1 Q. The adjacent parcels to the north are zoned Commercial Office (OC) while the parcels to the south are zoned Medium Industrial (IM). It can be assume that any area to be sold by the City for development would be re -zoned as either IM or OC. The remaining rectangular piece of Site C represents one of two parcels that were donated to the City by the Glacier Park Co. as part of a Wetland Mitigation Bank Agreement, King County Recording No. 9206241805. The agreement allowed Glacier Park Co. to fill 4.11 acres of isolated wetlands on six different parcels in the valley and in return, Glacier Park Co. donated two parcels of land to be used for the sole purpose of establishing a Wetland Mitigation Bank. These parcels are designated Mitigation Bank Site 1 which encompasses the rectangular piece (designated Parcel 14) and Mitigation Bank Site 2 (designated parcel 8W) which includes Site E to be discussed later. Per the agreement, these two parcels can only be used for mitigation banking. In 2000, the City agreed to allow the Oakesdale Business Park developer, Zelman Renton LLC to mitigate some wetland impacts through the purchase of 0.366 acres of bank credits. In addition to the 4.11 acres encumbered by Glacier Parks, the City must also to set aside an additional 0.366 acres in either Bank Site 1 or Bank Site 2. Site D Site D occupies a portion of the same land as Site C that was purchased from Glacier Park Co. in 1992 and is designated Parcel ID. As with the previous parcels, this land could be re -zoned Light or Medium Industrial by the City and sold for development. Site E Site E is equivalent to Mitigation Bank Site 2 and as explained above, was donated to the City by the Glacier Park Co. for the establishment of a wetland mitigation bank.

Warren RECEIVED 5--1— cq-)_ PUBLIC WORKS DEPT. April 30, 1992 CITY OF RENTON TO: Lynn Guttmann, Administrator Department of Planning/Building/Public Works FROM: Lawrence J. Warren, City Attorney RE: Purchase of Glacier Park Property Dear Lynn: By memo dated April 28, 1992 received by my office the afternoon of the following day, you ask certain questions about the financing for the Glacier Park property and how title should be taken since utility money may be used for the purchase. The purchases, if all of them are consummated, will involve about $200,000.00 in cash and approximately $400,000.00 in assumption of LID payments and other obligations. It would appear that the prime beneficiaries of the acquisition would be Surface Water Drainage, Transportation and Parks Departments. None of those entities presently have money available to consummate the purchase. Therefore, the city's General Fund would have to extend monies on behalf of the benefitting public services with later repayment. That being the case, I would suggest that the city take title in the city's name without any indication on the city's books that any particular department is benefit. Thereafter, the city can author a policy document indicating the internal ownership interests of the properties. Payment could then be arranged from the effected department back to the General Fund or, alternatively, the benefitting department or utility could assume its portion of the LID payments. This procedure should satisfy the auditor's office and should allow us to proceed to acquire these parcels with the minimum of additional complications. After the parcels have been acquired we can implement the funding as suggested in your memo. One additional complication has to be discussed. If we form the wetlands mitigation bank, are we going to include any of Parcels 13, 1, 3 and 4 into that bank? If so, how are the payments to the bank to be handled? For example, if some third party wishes to utilize the mitigation bank they would pay the city a sum of money that would represent the price of the property originally purchased by the city, as well as agreeing to create additional wetlands or pay the city the cost of creating the additional Post Office Box 626 - 100 S 2nd Street - Renton, Washington 98057 - (206) 255-8678 Lynn Guttmann, Administrator April 30, 1992 Page 2 wetlands. The repayment of land purchase price would then have to be accounted for. It could be credited to a particular department, for example a stormwater utility and, I presume, used to pay off LID payments. We need to work this process through before finalizing a policy. 0 > Lawrence J.

CITY OF RENTON 11E1 IORANDUM DATE: April9, 1992 TO: City Coun il FROM: yHn, uttm��i n, P/JB/PW Administrator i STAFF CONTACT: Mary Lynne Myer, Principal Planner SUBJECT: Wetlands Mitigation Bank and Property Purchase Glacier Park Company, a subsidiary of Burlington Northern, owns a number of parcels i undeveloped n the Renton Green River Valley. Due to decisions made by their parent company, Glacier Park will liquidate their land holdings by May 1992. The City of Renton could benefit by: 1) working with the Corporation to establish a wetland mitigation bank on two parcels dedicated to the City and allowing other parcels to be filled and developed, and 2) purchasing other Glacier Park property. HISTORICAL BACKGROUND OF THE GLACIER PARK PLAT In the mid-1970s, Burlington Northern applied for permits to fill almost 60 acres of land in the Green River Valley. They concurrently petitioned the City for a rezone of much of that land from G-1 to M-P and H-1. During review of the fill and grade application and the rezone request, numerous concerns were raised about the impacts of these actions on wetlands, wildlife habitat and flood drainage plans in the Green River Valley. Responding to these concerns, Burlington Northern donated 20 acres of wedand to the City of Renton. The City was also given a one year option to purchase an additional 37 acres of adjacent wetlands. The fill and grade permits and the rezone were granted in 1976 and Burlington Northern subsequently submitted a preliminary plat proposal for the area. During the same time, several flood drainage alternatives were being evaluated for the East Side Green River Valley Watershed Plan. One of the alternative which was being evaluated included construction of the P-1 Channel. Another alternative which was being considered included expansion of Springbrook Creek. Memorandum to City Council April 9, 1992 Page 2 The plat proposal contained portions of the Proposed P-1 Channel and Springbrook Creek. Because the East Side Green River Valley Watershed Plan had not been completed or funded at the time, there was no acquisition or donation of parcels for the P-1 Channel. However, to preserve storm drainage options, several parcels corresponding the proposed P-1 Channel were specifically reserved by the final plat in perpetuity for wildlife habitat, public access and storm drainage purposes. In addition, the final plat extended the original option to purchase the additional 37 acres of wetland was extended until 1978. The final plats were approved with these conditions in the late 1970s. In August, 1979, the City Council decided that there was not enough funding available to purchase the additional acreage and released the option to purchase these wetlands. MITIGATION BANKING BACKGROUND: In April 1991, Renton staff investigated. the concept of mitigation banking for wetlands. During the focus group and other public -involvement sessions for the wetlands ordinance, staff found wide spread approval of the bank concept by a number of land owners and agencies. The concept met with wide approval. Regulating agencies and wetlands scientists also believed a mitigation bank would have a great chance of success in the Valley due to the number of remaining natural factors. For example, removal of fill would allow for natural hydrology to reestablish, an historic seedbed is likely still present, the area continues to be a floodplain, a surprising amount of wildlife is still pros&t in the Valley, and several of the bank parcels are at original elevation. In February of 1992, Glacier Park offered to establish a bank as mitigation for filling some of the Category III wetlands on six properties they would be selling in their May liquidation sale. The to -be -filled properties, under their proposal, would be the "sending" properties. The two parcels constituting the mitigation bank would be donated to the city and would act as "receiving" properties. THE PROPOSAL Of the over 20 properties in the original Glacier Park plat, eight remain undeveloped. Category III wetlands are found on six of these properties. In their present condition, these properties cannot be sold at a price commensurate with the other industrial properties. A wetlands bank would allow the properties to be sold for an increased price. Two undeveloped additional properties, also owned by Glacier Park, are suitable sites for establishment of a wetlands bank. These sites, partially filled, have historically established wetlands on the unfilled portions of the site. Fill can be removed to create new wetlands adjacent to existing ones thus establishing a mitigation bank area. All wetlands on "sending" and "receiving" properties have been delineated using methodologies acceptable to both the City and the Army Corps of Engineers. These delineations show a total of 5.33 acres of wetlands on the six parcels to be filled. A Memorandum to City Council April 9, 1992 Page 3 total of 25.55 acres of fill can be removed on the wetland bank area to provide replacement. Clearly, enough area is available in the bank site to allow for replacement of the wetlands at a ratio of 1.5 - 1 as required by the wetlands ordinance. (see Attachment B) CITY RESPONSIBILITY The Corporation proposal would donate the bank properties to the City of Renton in return for a wetlands permit for fill of the six properties to be sold. The City of Renton, as the recipient and owner, would be responsible for the reestablishment of the wetlands on the bank, for all performance bonds associated with these properties and for LID requirements. Any additional activity on the wetland "receiving" properties would be the responsibility of the City. The city would need to prepare a wetlands mitigation plan for the "receiving" properties and to obtain the necessary permits and approvals from agencies with jurisdictions. DISCUSSION: What functions would the wetland bank provide? ■Maximum economic development of the remaining Glacier Park parcels; ■Ecologically, environmentally sound replacement of wetlands, meeting requirements in the City's wetland ordinance; ■Maintenance of flood storage. This area is within the existing flood plain and experiences localized flooding. Additional wetlands could accommodate more flood inundation as the watershed develops. ■Create additional capacity to meet other wetland mitigation needs. Other property owners in the Valley could mitigate their development's adverse impacts on the wetlands through cash contributions, or in -kind replacement construction. City projects could also mitigate adverse wetland impacts through these bank sites; ■Convenient location for workers and citizens for both park and trail usage. ■Consolidation of wetlands, with higher functions and values than those filled. These consolidated areas would provide for greater wildlife habitat conserving some unique areas in the Valley. The mitigation sites would form part of greenbelt extending along Springbrook to the Black River forest. ■A unique, historical chance to provide a partnership between the public and private sectors to deal wisely with wetlands and economic development on a win -win basis. How would the wetland bank operate? Glacier Park would dedicate sites 1 and 2 (parcel #14 and part of 8) to the City as mitigation sites. These sites have Category 1 and 2 wetlands already on site and also have fill which can be removed to establish more wetlands. Sending properties, Memorandum to City Council April 9, 1992 Page 4 Parcels 2,5,6, 8w, 8e and 9, would have under one acre of Category 3 wetlands filled on each site (totaling 4.11 acres of proposed wetland fill). If the property owners wished to exceed the one acre fill, a total of 5.33 acres of wetlands are found on these sites. The replacement of wetlands would be accomplished on the mitigation bank site at a ratio of 1.5 to L (See attachment C for acreage totals.) As part of the sale of the sending properties, a notice would accompany the deed of sale stating that a specified amount of wetlands fill and mitigation through replacement has been agreed to by the City of Renton. Other requirements, such as storm drainage, street, utility and parks and recreation obligations would not be waived by this action for the properties anticipating development. The City would then be responsible for preparing and implementing a mitigation plan for wetlands reestablishment. What obligations would come with assumption of the wetland bank properties? The City would be responsible for setting up a mitigation plan for recreating wetlands. This would include an excavation plan, planting plans, timing and scheduling and implementation of the plans. Such a mitigation document could cost $40,000 to complete. Planting and necessary earth work, often costs $40,000 to $50,000 an acre. This involves excavating and disposal of fill, importing of other soils such as topsoil, acquisition and planning of vegetative material. Consultant costs of $30,000 would be incurred for one year to establish the plan, the bank, and its operating rules. A mitigation plan would be provided within one/two years, and planting costs for the entirr. 25 acres could be spaced over a 10-20 year period as needed to meet the demand. On -going staffing would be needed to provide continuity for the bank, monitoring for wetland reestablishment, and services for other valley land owners wishing to use the bank. What permitting responsibilities would the City have? The City would need to process a lot line adjustment for Mitigation Site 2 to set up the wetland bank prior to donation and sale of Glacier Park properties. A declaration of non -significance (mitigated) would have to be issued for each property for the filling of wetlands, assuming no other environmental impacts are found for the properties individually. Wetlands, vegetation removal, and fill and grade permits would be necessary to allow the new property owners to fill the wetlands designated on each site. [Fees for these permits could be assessed to Glacier Park, the new owners, or waived. It is recommended that fees be waived, allowing Glacier Park to realize some benefit from the dedication of land.] What costs would the City incur through the establishment of the mitigation bank? Because the land would be donated to the City, no land acquisition costs would be incurred. However, the City may be required to pick up closing costs from the transfer of the deeds. Memorandum to City Council April 9, 1992 Page 5 In addition, these properties may have LID, performance bond, and SUCC fees assessed against them. (Attachment D shows the assessments which the City may incur.) What possible funding sources could be used to offset the costs of acquiring the wetland bank12rooerties and running the wetland bank? The wetland bank parcels would be donated to the City so no costs would be incurred for acquisition. Approximate costs for a mitigation plan and implementation of it follows: 1. A mitigation plan $40,000 2. Implementing the plan $40,000-50,000/acre 3. Consultant's fee 3$ 0,000 TOTAL $110,000 - $120,000 Funding for the plan and the implementation would come from a variety of sources: spark mitigation fees ■Metro mitigation funds ■TCIP funds ■LID funds ■ surface water utility rates ■possible Soil Conservation Services funds (if connected with flood control) ■donations of money from other developers in the watershed who wish to use the bank ■possible use of Open Space Bonds funds RECOMMENDATION We recommend that the Council concur to proceed with the mitigation bank, including the eventual acceptance of property. Memorandum to City Council April 9, 1992 Page 6 PURCHASE OF WETLAND PROPERTIES Three parcels available for purchase from Glacier Park may be of interest to the City. They are identified as parcels 1, 3, 4, and 13. Property Descriptions: Parcel 1 is large emergent and scrub -shrub wetland of approximately 28 acres. The wetland is likely a remnant of the original valley floor with the elevation being lower than the surrounding roads and development. Water sources to this wetland include regional groundwater, overbank flooding from Springbrook Creek, and sheetflow runoff from roads. The wetland has been rated high for groundwater discharge and recharge, flood storage capability, shoreline anchoring, water purification, and medium for food chain support and wildlife habitat in the recent Draft Report, Wetland Inventory, Black River Water Quality Management Plan/ESGRW. (12/91. Stormwater Division, City of Renton) A number of individuals working in the surrounding industries and offices use the.area for passive -recreation. Parcels 3. 4 are located directly south of the wetlands which were dedicated to the City as a part of the final plat. This wetlands is an emergent scrub -shrub wetland with some open water of approximately 15 acres. The wetland is likely a remnant of the original valley floor as its elevation is also lower than the surrounding roads and development. Water sources to this wetland include regional groundwater, overbank flooding from Springbrook Creek, and sheetflow runoff from roads. The wetland is rated high for groundwater recharge and discharge, flood storage capacity shoreline anchoring, water purification and medium for flood chain support and wildlife habitat. It is functionally and visually connected with the Renton wetlands, and has the same functions as the large wetland to the east. A right of way in the form of a dirt road runs through the wetland and is used for passive recreation. This wetland has an easement on it for drainage purposes for the Seattle Times site. although its ownership remains with Glacier Park. Parcel 1, and 3 & 4 are integral for the flood control and water quality of the Valley. It is estimated that structural replacement of the functions of these wetlands for flood control alone would cost the City approximately $1-3 million dollars. These two wetlands are essential for any future flood control and/or storm water programs within the Valley. City interests would be best served by ownership control. Parcel 13 includes the proposed alignment for the P-1 Channel west of Oakesdale and south along the Burlington Northern tracks. This alignment is interspersed with wetlands and uplands. It also may be at original grade. However, it does not have the diverse habitat that is present in the other Glacier Parcel mitigation bank sites and the two wetland sites to the east. This area has not been assessed for wetland categories or functions and values through either the stormwater inventory or the Glacier Park inventory. However, it is clear that a number of wetland and upland sites are present. It is likely this area could have a number of uses if purchased: ■P-1 Channel alignment ■additional mitigation bank sites Memorandum to City Council April 9, 1992 Page 7 ■location for future light rail stations and land uses if this rail alignment is chosen for regional use ■additional industrial land PURCHASE ISSUES What responsibilities would the city incur from purchase of Parcels 1. 3 & 4, and 139 The City would become responsible for the maintenance and liability issues of wetlands on these parcels. Parcel 1 wetlands could be enhanced for flood storage and wildlife habitat by removal of invasive plant species which are choking out native plants. However, this is a lower priority task and could be accomplished over a number of years. Parcels 3 & 4 and 13 would necessitate the same responsibility and liabilities as found with ownership of any open space area. What costs would the City incur from purchase of these parcels? The amount of purchase price is ostensibly reduced because of the presence of wetlands on site, and/or the inaccessibility of Parcel 13. Also, because these are being liquidated by the Company, certain financial benefits are accrued to the seller. Acreage cosh for these parcels are approximately $2,500/acre. Parcel 1 was offered to the City for purchase price of $10,000 per acre in 1978. Preliminary appraisals confirm the $2,500/acre asking price; but the appraisal values of wetlands would be checked using the same methods as the Panther Creek wetland appraisals. Other City fees such as SUCC fees would not be an issue for these parcels, as no improvements would be put on site. Assessments were reduced b 5� 0%. TOTAL PURCHASE COSTS: $444.720 (see Attachment D) RECOMMENDATIONS: Authorization to proceed with purchase of parcels 1, 3 & 4, and 13. Funding will be accomplished by borrowing internally for the short term outlay. Pay back will be through park mitigation fees, mitigation bank cast contributions, LID TIP, Metro mitigation, storm utility fees, possible Open Space Bond funding, and CIP. Memorandum to City Council April9, 1992 Page 8 Attachment A: City Goals Attachment B: Maps Attachment C: Acreage Counts Attachment D: Cost Sheet ATTACHMENT A CITY GOALS MITIGATION BANK FOR THE GREEN RIVER VALLEY A mitigation bank shall meet the following goals: 1. Achieve "no net loss" of wetlands being replaced. 2. Function within the same drainage basin as the wetlands being replaced. 3. Perpetuate the existing functions and values of Valley wetlands and may increase the functions and values of the wetlands. 4. Protect wetlands and other environmentally sensitive areas associated with the sending and receiving properties in a manner consistent with local ordinances. 5. Consolidate in one or two locations a replacement area for many scattered wetlands. 6. Promote joint agreements between the City and property owner for mechanism and running of the bank. 7. Conform to City ordinances and state regulations concerning wetlands. S. ' Increase the property owner's ability to use the sending properties for the uses specified in City ordinances and plans. 9. Encourage public access to wetlands for use when sensitive habitats are protected. 10. Incorporate monitoring plans and methods for evaluation of its effectiveness which may be used to change the bank to provide remedies for problems and/or deficiencies.

During the negotiations for this purchase, the City agreed to pay $200,000 for all the acreage and Glacier Park agreed to either credit the City or pay $27,215 for the outstanding obligations related to a Board of Public Works bond for sidewalk and landscaping improvements on these particular parcels. The payment of the $27,215 was not specifically called out in the agreement between Glacier Park Company and the City of Renton, nor was the $27,215 credited against the $200,000. That transaction was omitted in the official paper work. When this oversight was noted on June 23, 1992, Karen Lane, Vice President of Glacier Park, reiterated their commitment to make that payment and subsequently submitted a check in the amount of $27,215 to cover the debt. After receipt of the check, the City released an agreement between the Trillium Corporation and the City of Renton, which in turn releases the total Board of Public Works bond in the amount of $578,000. This security had been posted for a series of street, sidewalk and landscaping improvements, part of which was the $27,215. The agreement also reiterated Trillium's obligation to install along the street frontage all sidewalks, curbs, and landscaping as part of any subsequent development. In conclusion, the following summarizes the transactions related to the $578,000 Board of Public Works bond: 1. Some portions of the improvement of the deferral bond were already completed. 2. The portion of the bond related to the properties donated by Glacier Park to the City of Renton as a Wetlands Mitigation were "forgiven" during the donation transaction. June 24, 1992 Page 2 3. The value of the sidewalk and landscaping improvements for the properties purchased by the City of Renton, Parcels 1, 3, 4 and 13 were relieved by Glacier Park's payment of $27,215. 4. The obligation to complete the physical improvements in association with privately owned property, that is the property purchased by Trillium Corporation from Glacier Park, remains an obligation which is no longer secured by a deferral bond. Instead it is contained in the agreement signed by Trillium Corporation as part of Glacier Park/Trillium Corporation sales agreement, a copy of which is attached to this memo. cc Mary Lynn Myer Mike Dotson Larry Warren Marilyn Petersen Pat Porter Board of Public Works Files 92-419.DOC/IAG/bh GREEN RIVER VALLEY WETLANDS/OPEN SPACE PURCHASE PROPOSAL (revised as of 4/28/92) CONFIDENTIAL Property(Lot #) Acres Asking Purchase Price LID Total Performance Bond # Amount I Outstanding Parcel 1 Seq. 120 24.28 KC # 125381-0090 #314-021 $88,351 $302-034 $49,275 KC # 125381-0100 #302-035 $30,118 KC # 125381-0150 none $0 KC # 125381-0160 #314-022 $90,659 $50,000 $258,403 $308,403 $16,327 Parcel 3 Seq.120 3.75 $25,000 none $0 $25,000 $3,111 KC # 125381-0230 Parcel 4 Seq.120 10.59 $25,000 $25,000 KC # 125381-0170 none $0 $0 KC # 125381-0220 none Subtotal Group A 39.40 1$100,000 1 $258,403 1 $358,403 $19,438 Parcel 13 Seq. 968 $100,000 $7,777 A KC # 000580-0019 4.31 none $0 KC # 252304-9001 6.43 none $0 B KC # 252304-9082 6.96 #314-068 $118,289 Portion of C KC # 252304-9004 14.01 none $0 D KC # 362304-9002 9.65 #285-0 #323-15 $0 —KC KC # 302305-9007 3.24 #302-043 $12,218 FPortion of # 252304-9019 3.50 Subtotal Parcel 13 1 48.27 1$100,000 1 $130,507 $230,507 $7,777 Total All Properties 1 87.67 ac 1 $200,000 1 $388,910 $588,910 $27,215 92-233 GLACIER PARK PURCHASES (corrected Financial Sheet) CITY PAYS Parcel 1 (big wetland) Parcel 13 (P-9 channel) (purchase & (purchase & LI D) Corrected corrected LID) Old LID Charges Old Total LID charges New Total $244,716.00 $344,720.00 $258,403.00 $358,403.00 $0.00 1 $100,000.00 1 $130,507.00 1 $230,507.00 $444,720.00 New Total $588,910.00 Old Total ($444,720.00) Difference $144,190.00 Glacier Park Pays Outstanding Performance Bonds New Total Old Total Parcel 1 $19,438.00 $0.00 Parcel 13 $7,777.00 $0.00 $27,215.00 $0.00 MILIL .

CITY OF RENTON It is Glacier Park's understanding that there was an agreement reached between you and me in connection with the City's purchase of wetlands that Glacier Park would be responsible for payment of $27,000 of outstanding street frontage improvements required for the properties purchased by the City of Renton. There is also a separate Agreement between Trillium Corporation and the City of Renton to release an outstanding deferral bond for $578,000 that covers the properties purchased by the City of Renton as well as other properties. We understand that the final purchase price for the Purchase and Sale Agreement between the City of Renton and Glacier Park Company was not reduced by the $27,000. Therefore, Glacier Park will write a check to the City of Renton to fulfill our obligation for frontage improvements for properties involved in the Purchase and Sale Agreement. We understand that the City of Renton will release the Trillium Agreement and that all documents regarding the Wetland Mitigation Bank Agreement will be recorded with King County. Eurthermore, the City of Renton will wend a release of bond letter and a copy of the recorded release Agreement to Glacier Park's bonding company. Should you have any questions or comments, please contact me. Sincerely, Karen E. Lane Vice President Development cc: Marty L.

Earl Clymer, Mayor April 28, 1992 Karen E. Lane Vice President, Development Glacier Park Company 101 1 Western Avenue, Suite 700 Seattle, WA 98104 SUBJECT: PROPOSED PROPERTY PURCHASE Dear Karen: CITY OF RENTON Planning/Building/Public Works Department Lynn Guttmann, Administrator Attached please find revised factual information regarding properties the City of Renton is considering purchasing. The packet consists of four attachments: 1. The first attachment ("A") was the original chart presented to Marty at our meeting on Thursday, April 23. 2. The second attachment ("B") is a revised version of that chart delineating the parcels by your sequence number and King County assessor map property identification numbers. It includes updated information regarding the outstanding LID assessments taken from the information provided by your office and confirming them with the City's records. 3. The third attachment CC") is a map of the area with the parcels under consideration colored in order to clarify the discussion. (Note on Attachment "B" we have not listed the mitigation bank properties that are shown on the map because we are considering that as a totally separate transaction.) 4. The fourth attachment, Attachment "D", is a Glacier Park map with the sequence numbers and square footage noted on the far right-hand side of the page. As we discussed on the telephone, aside from verifying the outstanding LID assessment amount, please verify the amount of acreage in each parcel and exactly which parcels are included in the purchase offer (by King County Assessor's identification number). Of particular concern to us is parcel (King County) No. 302305-9007. That property is located on the extreme east side of the parcel we have been calling No. 13. This parcel was included in the submittal of LID statements, faxed to us by Mike Johns on April 24. However, the legal description for that parcel was not included with the other legal descriptions that described the sub -areas within parcel No. 13, nor was it 200 Mill Avenue South - Renton, Washington 98055 April 28, 1992 Page Two presented in the auction book, nor highlighted or colored on the previous maps that were presented to the City. It is our understanding that this parcel is included in the sale. We need written confirmation that is your intention because parcel #302305- 9007 is of primary interest to the City. Please clarify another discrepancy: the amount of acreage included in parcel No. 13. The sum of all the King County Assessor's parcels that are listed on Attachment "B" equals 61 acres, while the number shown on Attachment "D" for parcel 13 is 46.44 acres. Could you resolve this discrepancy for us? It is my understanding that our first task is to establish and verify the accuracy of the factual information before we proceed with any negotiations. Based on our conversation yesterday, Monday April 27, we agreed that the City's Administration would not present any additional information to the City Council until May 4, when the factual information has been verified and documented. We also acknowledged that the Administration can take no action until the City Council has been apprised of the differences in the LID amounts and other changes in the physical or property parameters. I am pleased that we are continuing to discuss this matter in a way which makes it a mutually constructive endeavor. I hope that by the end of this negotiation process, both Glacier Park and the City of Renton will be pleased with the outcome.

The City will pay all real property taxes, all special assessments and Local Improvement District installments against the property for the period following the Date of closing. Memo to Interdepartmental Work Group May 21, 1992 Page 2 REMAINING ISSUES: HAZARDOUS MATERIALS A Level one analysis, the beginning analysis level under the State's hazardous materials law, CERLA, was performed while the parcels were still under the ownership of Glacier Park. This analysis indicated the possibility of some potential contamination from the Sternoff site and the unknown origin of any material used in filling the tributary on Parcel 14, which extends into Parcel 13. Attached is a map of the former tributary which traverses the Sternoff site, Parcel 14, and encroaches upon Parcel 13. A level II analysis, which will verify whether contamination is present, is underway on Parcel 13 and 14. See attached map for areas under investigation. Golder and Associates will be submitting a scope and budget (under $10,000) by May 25, 1992. The analysis will be completed by June 8, 1992.

Storm Water should manage Parcel 13, since its primary use could be for the P-1, P-9 channel. Memo to Interdepartmental Work Group May 21, 1992 Page 3 Suggested sted participants John Webley MITIGATION BANK Due date June 30, 1992 Product Memo establish- ing city owner- ship & manage - memt responsi- bility The mitigation bank agreement must be finalized by June 15, 1992, with Glacier Park. Even though the Trillium Corporation purchased the parcels which will be the major sending properties to the bank, Glacier Park is still the entity with whom we must finalize the agreements. The mitigation bank agreement document is acceptable, however, several issues must be worked out. If the Level II analysis shows any hazardous wastes on Mitigation Bank Site 1, we have the same options as outlined above under Purchase section. This analysis will be completed June 8, 1992. Glacier Park will be submitting lot line adjustments for Mitigation Site 1 and 2 within one week to the Development Services Division. It is expected that these applications will receive expedited processing. Glacier may also submit applications for vegetation removal permits and for wetlands permits for the parcels Trillium purchased. It is suggested that these applications not be processed until the Mitigation Bank agreement is finalized. There is a discrepancy of 7 acres in the legal description of mitigation bank site 1 and the area shown on the maps. Glacier is researching this discrepancy. Once the mitigation bank agreement is completed, we must be prepared to implement the bank. ISSUES TO BE RESOLVED: 1) A schedule and agreed upon methodology for processing the lot line adjustments and the sending properties' permits.

During the negotiations for this purchase, the City agreed to pay $200,000 for all the acreage and Glacier Park agreed to either credit the City or pay $27,215 for the outstanding obligations related to a Board of Public Works bond for sidewalk and landscaping improvements on these particular parcels. The payment of the $27,215 was not specifically called out in the agreement between Glacier Park Company and the City of Renton, nor was the $27,215 credited against the $200,000. That transaction was omitted in the official paper work. When this oversight was noted on June 23, 1992, Karen Lane, Vice President of Glacier Park, reiterated their commitment to make that payment and subsequently submitted a check in the amount of $27,215 to cover the debt. After receipt of the check, the City released an agreement between the Trillium Corporation and the City of Renton, which in turn releases the total Board of Public Works bond in the amount of $578,000. This security had been posted for a series of street, sidewalk and landscaping improvements, part of which was the $27,215. The agreement also reiterated Trillium's obligation to install along the street frontage all sidewalks, curbs, and landscaping as part of any subsequent development. In conclusion, the following summarizes the transactions related to the $578,000 Board of Public Works bond: 1. Some portions of the improvement of the deferral bond were already completed. 2. The portion of the bond related to the properties donated by Glacier Park to the City of Renton as a Wetlands Mitigation were "forgiven" during the donation transaction.

The value of the sidewalk and landscaping improvements for the properties purchased by the City of Renton, Parcels 1, 3, 4 and 13 were relieved by Glacier Park's payment of $27,215. 4. The obligation to complete the physical improvements in association with privately owned property, that is the property purchased by Trillium Corporation from Glacier Park, remains an obligation which is no longer secured by a deferral bond. Instead it is contained in the agreement signed by Trillium Corporation as part of Glacier Park/Trillium Corporation sales agreement, a copy of which is attached to this memo. cc: Mary Lynn Myer Mike Dotson Larry Warren Marilyn Petersen Pat Porter Board of Public Works Files 92-419.DOC/LAG/bh 1 CITY OF RENTON PLANNING/BUILDING/PUBLIC WORKS MEMORANDUM DATE: April 10, 1996 TO: Gregg Zimmerman � FROM: Ron Olsen�C STAFF CONTACT: Ron Straka (X-5548) ,/,, Scott Woodbury (X-5547) SUBJECT: USE OF THE WETLAND MITIGATION BANKING PROJECT PRIOR TO ITS CONSTRUCTION As you had requested, we have evaluated whether there is sufficient area on the wetland mitigation banking sites to construct the wetland mitigation required for the SW 16th Street Technical Center Project (LUA-96-034). The two mitigation banking sites total 44.80 acres. Site I is 30.97 acres consisting of 12.19 acres of uplands and 18.78 acres of wetlands. Site 2 is 13.93 acres and consists of 7.24 acres of upland and 6.69 acres of wetlands on fill. If all of the upland area on both sites is converted to wetland, then a total of 19.43 acres of wetlands would -be created. Of this amount, at least 4.11 acres must be used to mitigate for the Glacier Park impacts per the Wetland Mitigation Bank Agreement (King County Recording No. 9206241805) and 4.08 acres would need to be reserved to mitigate for City transportation projects. Assuming a 1:1 replacement ratio based on acreage alone and subtracting these prior obligations leaves a total maximum of 11.24 acres available for compensating wetland impacts from other projects. Attached is a copy of existing condition plans for Sites 1 and 2 with probable locations for constructing the Technical Center's wetland mitigation shown. It is our opinion that wetlands could be created in these areas without triggering any federal permits or state permits other than SEPA environmental review. There is, therefore, little risk of being denied the permits to construct the mitigation solely for the SW 16th Street Technical Center on the mitigation bank sites, as the authority to do so would lie with the City alone. We hope that this information is helpful. If you have any questions, please contact Ron Straka at X-5548 or Scott Woodbury at X-5547. 1i:D0CS:96-237:S W:ps Attachment — — — — — — Parcel SW — — — — — — — — — — Parisi 8E I ( Lcr-I I to 4 I f areas to be acvcicpcd � I I I I I I + � i Las 2 / .00 acres N l � tI ' 05i acres �- 2.26 acres , 1.00 acres / / APAS. / / Mitigation Bank 5ite 2 Total Site Area .

Warren RECEIVED 6141/ 7 PUBUC WORKS DEPT. 1992 CITY OF RENTON Re: Potential Pollution Problem on Property Purchased from Glacier Park Company Dear Ms. Lane: -n Following the city's recent purchase of property from Glacier Park Company the City of Renton commissioned a Level II toxics analysis on a portion of the property that was purchased, lying immediately adjacent to the Sternoff Metals Company parcel and just north of southwest 43rd. You will find enclosed a copy of that analysis. The report indicates that there may be unacceptable levels of certain pollutants in the surface water. The city is attempting to determine the source of that pollution and is trying to find methods to eliminate the contaminants from the surface water. We would like the Glacier Park Company to review its records and determine if it is aware of the source of these materials, as well as participate with us in determining a method to alleviate the pollution concerns pertaining to this site. Of course, the city is trying to determine the most cost effective way of handling this problem. If it is determined that remediation is necessary, the Glacier Park Company, as a prior owner of the property, is a potentially responsible party under existing federal and state legislation. It may be that the Glacier Park Company would like to retake ownership of this parcel and rebate a portion of the purchase price to the City of Renton. The City of Renton is interested in discussing this matter with you further.

Warren TO: Dan Clements, Administrative Services Administrator Lynn Guttmann, Administrator Department of Planning/Building/Public Works Mary Lynne Myer, Principal Planner FROM: Lawrence J. Warren, City Attorney RE: Glacier Park Dear Dan, Lynn and Mary Lynne: I am attaching a copy of a Letter Agreement between Glacier Park and the city, allowing the city to reject parcels of property from the Wetland Mitigation Bank if they contain hazardous substances under CERCLA, SERA, the State Model Toxics Act and nearly any other pollution law you can think of. This permits us adequate time to conduct a Level 2 analysis of the soils in Tract 14, the large western parcel of the mitigation bank. The proposed transfer date is June 15th. The agreement asks that we use our best efforts to finish our Level 2 analysis by the end of May. The original estimate of time to perform the analysis was two weeks. It would appear that we have enough time to complete this analysis and assure ourselves that this parcel is not contaminated. LJW:as. cc: Mayor Earl Clymer Jay Covington John Webley A8.83:25.

D ACC N, KE��OGG' BA�gER, WA p�pN � FON[ES, p.S• Re: Glacier Park Company Wetlands Mitigation Bank Proposal Dear Mayor Clymer: The city of Renton (the "City") and Glacier Park Company ("Glacier Park") have negotiated and prepared a Wetland Mitigation Land Bank Agreement (the "Agreement") pursuant to which Glacier Park will transfer to the City two parcels of real property for the purpose of establishing a wetland mitigation bank. In exchange, the City will allow Glacier Park to fill wetlands located on other properties owned by Glacier Park in the city of Renton. The City and Glacier Park are ready to sign the Agreement, but a Level 1 environmental assessment conducted by the City has revealed the potential for one of the mitigation bank parcels to be contaminated by hazardous or dangerous materials as a result of a drainage ditch that flows onto the mitigation bank property from a contaminated property to the south. In consideration of the following agreements, the City and Glacier Park shall proceed to sign the Agreement. The City shall collect and analyze soil samples on the mitigation bank property to determine whether there is any environmental contamination. The City shall conduct such analysis as expeditiously as possible and will try to obtain the results of the analysis by May 30, 1992. If the analysis of the soils samples reveals that the mitigation bank property contains any hazardous or dangerous substance, material, or waste that is regulated pursuant to the Model Toxics Control Act (RCW 70.105D), the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act of 1976, the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act, any other state or federal law that regulates hazardous or dangerous substances, materials, or wastes, or any amendments to such laws and regulations, and the amount of such substance, material, or waste exceeds the applicable regulatory threshold, then the City shall have the right to termi- nate the Agreement. However, if Glacier Park agrees to undertake, at its sole expense, the neces- sary remediation actions to reduce the contaminant levels on the mitigation bank property below the applicable regulatory thresholds for the particular hazardous or dangerous materials, substances, or wastes, then the City shall not have the right to terminate the Agreement, and the City and Glacier Park shall proceed to consummate the Agreement as set forth in the signed document. 1011 Western Avenue, Suite 700 • Seattle, Washington 98104 • 206-467-5500 A Subsidiary of Burlington Resources Inc.
