body
      BE IT ORDAINED BY THE COUNCIL OF KING COUNTY:
      SECTION 1.  Ordinance 11617, Section 4, as amended, and K.C.C. 14.65.020 are each hereby amended to read as follows:
      A.  Following the submission of a development application, the department of transportation shall determine the transportation impact fee to be paid under K.C.C. chapter 14.75 and shall determine the traffic impacts of the proposed development on roadway intersections that will be adversely impacted and which must be mitigated using K.C.C. chapter 14.80.
      B.1.  The vehicular trips expected to be generated by a proposed development shall be calculated as of the time of application, using standard generation rates published by the Institute of Transportation Engineers, other standard references or from other documented information and surveys approved by the department of transportation.
        2.  The department of transportation may approve a reduction in generated vehicle trips calculated under subsection B.1. of this section based on the types of land uses that are to be developed, on the expected amount of travel internal to the development, on the expected pass-by trips from existing traffic or on the expected reduction of vehicle traffic volumes.  Such a reduction shall be used when calculating ((MPS)) mitigation payment system and ((IS)) intersection standards, including any impact and mitigation fees and costs for which the development shall be liable.
        3.  The calculation of vehicular trip reductions as described in this section shall be based in all cases upon sound and recognized technical information and analytical process that represent current engineering practice.  In all cases, the department of transportation shall have final approval of all such data, information and technical procedures used to calculate trip reductions.
      C.  Intersection level of service shall be calculated according to the most-recent Highway Capacity Manual or an alternative method approved by the department of transportation.
      D.  The intersection standard for all intersections shall be "E" as required by the K.C.C. chapter 14.80 and calculated according to the most recent Highway Capacity Manual or approved alternative method.
      E.  As well as other criteria for bicycle, pedestrian, traffic congestion, safety and road design, the standards in subsection D. of this section shall be used in the integrated transportation program for the determination of traffic impacts for the ((SEPA)) state Environmental Policy Act evaluation of a proposed development.
      F.  Fees for the ((MPS)) mitigation payment system and ((IS)) intersection standards shall be as follows:
        1.  All developments subject to the ((MPS)) mitigation payment system fees shall pay an administrative fee as established by K.C.C. 14.75.080 and 14.75.090 at the time of application for a((n MPS)) mitigation payment system determination.  Payment for impact mitigation fees under ((MPS)) mitigation payment system shall be paid at the time a development permit is issued, but residential developments may defer payment until building permits are issued;, except as otherwise provided in section 5 of this ordinance; and
        2.  Administrative fees shall not be charged for ((IS)) intersection standards review, but the owner of a proposed development is responsible for the costs of any traffic study needed to determine traffic impacts and mitigation measures at intersections, as determined by the director.
      G.  The need for the environmental assessment of a proposed development must be determined by the department of development and environmental services, following the filing of a completed permit application.  Impacts on the road system will be mitigated through ((MPS)) mitigation payment system fees.  Impacts on intersections will be mitigated through K.C.C. chapter 14.80.
      H.  Nothing in this chapter shall cause a developer to pay mitigation and impact fees more than once for the same impact.  Improvements and mitigation measures shall be coordinated by the director with other such improvements and measures attributable to other proposed developments, and with the county road improvement program so that the county road system is improved efficiently and effectively, with minimum costs to be incurred by public and private entities.  This title does not supersede or replace the county ((SEPA)) state Environmental Policy Act authority as enacted in K.C.C. chapter 20.44.
      SECTION 2.  Ordinance 11617, Section 43, and Attachment B, as amended, and K.C.C. 14.75.040 are each hereby amended to read as follows:
      A.  Fee schedules stating the amount of the ((MPS)) mitigation payment system fee ((which)) that residential development shall pay for development subject to ((MPS)) mitigation payment system fees are set forth in subsection E. of this section as described in subsection D. of this section.  Subsequent fee schedules shall be established in accordance with K.C.C. 14.75.050.  All other development shall pay a((n MPS)) mitigation payment system fee individually calculated by the department, as set forth in K.C.C. 14.75.050.B.  The ((MPS)) mitigation payment system administrative fee, which all developers shall pay, is set forth in K.C.C. 14.75.080 and 14.75.090.
      B.  For purposes of this chapter, the county is divided into service districts as set forth in Attachment A to Ordinance 13696.  In each service district, similar types of residential development shall pay the same ((MPS)) mitigation payment system fee, unless the amount of the fee is altered because:
        1.  Unusual circumstances exist and the department adjusts the amount of the fee as provided in subsection C. of this section; or
        2.  The developer submits studies or data showing that the fee as set forth in the applicable schedule or as calculated by the department is in error, as provided in K.C.C. 14.75.150.
      C.  The department may adjust the standard impact fee as set forth in the fee schedules at the time the fee is imposed to consider unusual circumstances in specific cases to ensure that ((MPS)) mitigation payment system fees are imposed fairly.  The department shall set forth its reasons for adjusting the standard ((MPS)) mitigation payment system fee in written findings.
      D.  The multifamily residential fee shall be determined based on the appropriate single family fee shown in subsection E. of this section multiplied by 0.6.  The residential ((MPS)) mitigation payment system fee for any unincorporated area not within a zone listed on the King County residential fee schedule shall be one hundred eighty-nine dollars.
      E.  King County residential fee schedule.

Any unincorporated residential fee not otherwise listed in this subsection E. is $189.
      SECTION 3.  Ordinance 11617, Section 49, as amended, and K.C.C. 14.75.100 are each hereby amended to read as follows:
      A.  In conjunction with the department's review and update of the Transportation Needs Report ((("TNR"))), or its successor, element of the King County Comprehensive Plan the department shall do the following:
        1.  Identify each project that is growth-related and the proportion of each such project that is growth-related;
        2.  Forecast the total money available from taxes and other public sources for road improvements over the multiyear program;
        3.  Calculate the amount of ((MPS)) mitigation payment system fees already paid; and
        4.  Identify those ((MPS)) mitigation payment system projects that have been or are being built but whose performance capacity has not been fully utilized.
      B.  The department shall use this information to prepare a draft ((MPS)) mitigation payment system project list, which shall comprise:
        1.  The projects in the ((TNR)) Transportation Needs Report, or its successor, in order of priority, that are growth-related and that are capable of being funded with the forecast public money and the ((MPS)) mitigation payment system fees already paid; and
        2.  The ((MPS)) mitigation payment system projects already built or funded under this chapter whose performance capacity has not been fully utilized.
      C.  The council shall by ordinance establish the ((MPS)) mitigation payment system project list by adopting, with or without modification, the department's draft list.
      D.  Once a project is placed on the ((MPS)) mitigation payment system project list, a fee shall be imposed on every development that impacts the project until the project is removed from the list by one of the following means:
        1.  The council by ordinance removes the project from the ((MPS)) mitigation payment system project list, in which case the fees already collected will be refunded if necessary to ensure that the ((MPS)) mitigation payment system fee remains reasonably related to the traffic impacts of development that have paid a((n MPS)) mitigation payment system fee.  However, a refund shall not be necessary if the council transfers the fees to the budget of another project that the council determines will mitigate essentially the same traffic impacts; or
        2.  The capacity created by the project has been fully utilized, in which case the department shall administratively remove the project from the ((MPS)) mitigation payment system project list.
      E.  The ((MPS)) mitigation payment system project list in this subsection E. shall be used by the department of transportation in preparing the mitigation payment system program fee schedules and in calculating mitigation payment system program fees.
