Larry recently retired as a principal at Transpo with over 30 years of experience
developing area-wide and corridor level transportation plans. He directed
Transpo’s efforts in GMA-based transportation plans, transportation financing
strategies, and concurrency programs. He also had project management
responsibilities for transportation analyses supporting EISs for subarea plans,
planned action ordinances, and transportation corridor projects. He has a
thorough knowledge of travel forecasting and traffic operation analyses
techniques.
Larry also served local agencies in reviewing traffic impact studies for
developments within and outside of their jurisdiction. He recently assisted the
Cities of Duvall and Ferndale in this role.
Larry was appointed as a member of King County’s Transportation Concurrency
Expert Review Panel. The panel includes County staff, citizens, and representatives
from the development community. The panel developed recommendations to
refine the Concurrency program to reflect the changes in King County to a more
rural County and also to improve the interface between the County’s concurrency
program and SEPA processes.
Tehaleh Employment Based Planned Community, Pierce County
Larry directed Transpo’s transportation planning and traffic engineering
assistance for this large master Planned Community located in Pierce County
between Bonney Lake and Orting. When fully developed, the community will have
over 6,500 residences, a retail center, business park, schools, and golf course.
Transpo’s assistance has included sizing of on-site roadways, design of
roundabouts and street lighting, and roadway channelization for internal
roadways. Transpo has also assisted in monitoring the transportation mitigation
triggers based on the approved development agreement. Transpo has assisted
the project team and agency staff in defining the off-site roadway and mitigation
strategies to support future development phases. Larry also led the initial tasks
for the detailed transportation analyses to support the Phase 2 application for the
development.
Redmond Ridge/Trilogy/Redmond Ridge East Master Planned
Communities EISs, King County, WA
Larry managed the analysis of traffic impacts and development of a subarea
transportation improvement program for the EIS for a large mixed-use
community planned for rural King County. At buildout, the development will
include 5,400 dwelling units, neighborhood retail, 1.2 million SF of business park,
golf course and soccer fields. The analysis included assessing roadway
improvement needs and non-motorized system facilities, transit opportunities,
and financing. Key issues included accommodating urban traffic levels in an
otherwise rural area and potential traffic impacts on other jurisdictions. Larry
supported the projects through coordination with WSDOT and Redmond.
Orton Junction Urban Growth Area EIS, Sumner, WA
Larry managed the transportation analysis for the EIS for this subarea located
south of SR 410 in Sumner. The City proposed to increase densities and expand
the Urban Growth Area (UGA) to accommodate a mix of residential, commercial,
and industrial land uses. The analysis addressed impacts and transportation
improvement needs in the immediate vicinity of the subarea.
Overlake Urban Center Residential Traffic Impact Analysis, Redmond
Larry managed an analysis of the potential traffic impacts of the additional multi-
family residential development within the proposed Overlake Urban Center. The
analysis focused on evaluating the impacts within the Overlake Transportation
Management District (TMD) and surrounding area of Bellevue. The City of
Redmond’s proposal to change the designation for the Overlake area from a
Manufacturing/Industrial Center to an Urban Center would not affect zoning or
the potential for residential growth in the area. Actual development of additional
residential units in the area would, however, result in some traffic impacts. The
impacts would primarily be in the immediate vicinity of the Overlake Urban
Center, with impacts decreasing further from the site.
Transportation Concurrency Expert Review Panel; King County, Washington.
Larry serves on the King County Transportation Concurrency Expert Review Panel.
The panel provides policy and technical guidance to King County staff as part of
their ongoing refinement of County policies and programs related to level of
service standards and concurrency. The panel has assisted in defining changes to
the programs as the County focuses on rural areas as annexations and
incorporations have greatly reduced the suburban areas under the jurisdiction of
King County.
Ferndale Main Street Master Plan and Planned Action EIS, Ferndale, WA
Larry managed the transportation analysis for the planned action EIS for
Ferndale’s Main Street near the I-5 interchange. The planned action would allow
over 1 million square feet of commercial developments. The EIS evaluated the use
of roundabouts vs. traffic signal improvements to address potential traffic
operations and safety impacts due to the increased level of development. The
analysis included comparison of levels of service, corridor travel speeds and cost
differences. The EIS also identified development mitigation strategies including
potential updates to the City’s transportation impact fee and concurrency
programs. He also coordinated with WSDOT on improvements related to impacts
on I-5 and interchanges at Main Street and Slater Road.
Pacific Ridge Subarea Plan and Planned Action EIS, Des Moines
Larry assisted the City of Des Moines in evaluating the transportation-related
impacts associated with 4,200 additional dwelling units and 6,900 additional
employees located within the Pacific Ridge subarea. To mitigate impacts, a variety
of strategies were identified, including a reduction in the amount of new
development, creation of a transit and transportation demand management
program, and/or funding and building necessary improvement projects through
one or more Local Improvement Districts (LIDs) or Transportation Benefit Districts
(TBDs). The Planned Action Ordinance took into account the City’s impact fee
requirements and street standard requirements.
