Background Information: The Steilacoom Boulevard Corridor Design Project is listed on the City of Lakewood’s current Six-Year Comprehensive Transportation Improvement Program. In June of 2014, the Town of Steilacoom and the City of Lakewood submitted and received a federal grant in the amount of $630,000 plus $312,000 in joint local matching funds (totaling $942,000) for the joint design of improvements to Steilacoom Blvd. from Puyallup Street in Steilacoom to Phillips Road in Lakewood. Steilacoom’s portion of the project covers Puyallup Street to Farwest Drive, while the Lakewood’s portion covers Farwest Drive to Phillips Road. The improvement design includes widening of Steilacoom Blvd to include installation of curb, gutter & sidewalk, accommodation of bicycles, street lighting, landscaping, retaining walls and a pavement overlay. Following is a breakdown of the project’s design funding: Agency Grant Funds Local Match Total Lakewood $ 440,000 $ 218,000 $ 658,000 Steilacoom $ 190,000 $ 94,000 $ 284,000 Total $ 630,000 $312,000 $ 942,000 030 The $258,500 contract with Gray and Osborne for design of the Steilacoom portion of this project will be paid for from Steilacoom’s total project design funds of $284,000. While Steilacoom was the lead agency associated with submitting the grant application, the Town is not qualified as a Certification Acceptance (CA) agency with the State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) and thus cannot oversee the actual design work on the project. The City of Lakewood has CA status with WSDOT. WSDOT encourages CA approved agencies to work with and assist non-CA agencies through inter-local agreements. At their August 17, 2015 meeting, the Lakewood City Council adopted motion 2015-40, authorizing execution of an Inter-local Agreement with Steilacoom for Lakewood to oversee design of the Steilacoom’s portion of the Steilacoom Boulevard Project. A copy of the executed inter- local agreement is attached for reference. It is planned that design of the Lakewood’s portion of this project will be completed by in- house staff by the end of 2018. In the meantime, the decision was made to advertise a Request for Proposals (RFP) for design consultant services for the Steilacoom’s portion of the project. 7 design consultants submitted Statement of Qualifications in response to the RFP, 3 consultants were interviewed, and Gray & Osborne was ultimately selected as the most qualified consulting engineering firm to perform this design work. Project Deliverables: The City of Lakewood and the Town of Steilacoom have supplied Gray & Osborne with a 30% design for the project. The Consultant will complete the following design services for the Town of Steilacoom’s portion of the project: • 60% Project Plans and Construction Estimate • 90% Project Plans, Specifications, and Construction Estimate (PS&E) • 100% PS&E Upon review and approval of the 100% PS&E, Lakewood will request full, bid-ready PS&E documents for advertisement for construction bids. Timeline: With approval of this Engineering Services contract, the consultant’s design work will begin in August, 2017. It is anticipated that this portion of the Steilacoom Blvd improvement project will be ready to be bid for construction in October of 2018. Project Construction Administration is anticipated to be managed by a consulting firm under direct contract with the Town of Steilacoom. It should be noted that in June 2016, Steilacoom received grant funding to assist them with the construction cost of their portion of the overall Steilacoom Blvd. improvement project. As stated above, the design of Lakewood’s portion of the overall project will be completed by in-house Lakewood staff by late 2018. In addition, in June 2016, Lakewood received additional grant funding ($702,000) for the purchase of additional right of way (ROW) on Steilacoom Blvd from Weller Road to Phillips Road. This additional ROW acquisition will take place in 2019 and is needed before Lakewood can complete construction of its portion of the overall Steilacoom Blvd improvement project. 031 Funding Amount and Source: The proposal for the design work is $258,500, which is within Steilacoom’s budget for this portion of the project design work. As shown in the table above, Steilacoom’s budget for the design of their portion of the Steilacoom Blvd improvement project is $284,000 ($190,000 in grant money plus their local match of $94,000). Per the Inter-local Agreement, Steilacoom will reimburse the City of Lakewood for all costs incurred by Lakewood on the Town of Steilacoom’s behalf for management of this design contract. With respect to the design of the Lakewood portion of the Steilacoom Blvd project, the estimated total design cost is approximately $658,000 ($440,000 in grant money plus the city’s local match of $218,000).

Caulfield, City Manager DATE: July 18, 2017 SUBJECT: 2017 Community Cleanup Event Update and Options This memo provides an update on plans to offer a community cleanup event to Lakewood residents and businesses this fall. The City’s 2015 franchise agreement with Waste Connections (dba Harold LeMay Companies, Pierce County Refuse) provides for the City to request one or two community cleanup events per year. These events allow residents to get rid of large volumes of household solid waste items without paying extra fees, and can be done in one of two formats: accepting items at a central drop-off site over two days, similar to Steilacoom Spring Cleanup; or by picking up items at residential addresses through a series of smaller, scheduled, neighborhood-scale curbside pickup days over the course of several weekends. Discussion of Options: The City can request either a drop-off or curbside pickup for the community cleanup event. There are advantages and disadvantages to either option. Staff previously had looked closely at the curbside cleanup option because it appeared to be simpler in design. However, after further discussion, Waste Connections has recommended the City elect to have a dropoff event instead for two reasons. First, it’s simpler to create a new drop-off event in a community and explain its criteria and operations because the event takes place for two days at a single location. This would help set up a new event for success. Second, the City itself is very large and has many residences, so rolling curbside pickups by neighborhoods here would be complicated, challenging to communicate, and would take weeks to complete. A dropoff-type here would utilize Waste Connection’s large, private transfer station on 94th Street SW. The facility has controlled access, designated exit and entry points, a large entry drive for queueing cars, space for multiple recycling stations to divert several forms of waste from the landfill, and a “tip deck” facility for rapid, large-scale solid waste collection. 1 098 Advantages Disadvantages Dropoff - Recyclable and reusable - Does not provide service materials are separated from directly to residential locations, solid waste which may be harder on those - Staff is provided by Waste who are lower-income, are Connections, and house-bound, or have limited supplemented by volunteers transportation options - Easier to ensure compliance - Requires City volunteers and with rules of event staff support for event - Can verify Lakewood residency status at entry gate before vehicles enter the facility Curbside - Service comes directly to - Can be difficult to Pickup each residence, so does not communicate dates, locations, require residents to transport and item restrictions effectively waste items to transfer - Would take weeks to complete station - Since all items at curbside will - Does not require City staff be collected, participation and volunteer support of cannot be limited effectively to event Lakewood residents - May encourage dumping - Non-compliant or late items become City responsibility for removal - Many recyclable or reusable materials will get thrown out Access Considerations: There are a range of ways to mitigate equity and access concerns about a dropoff event. Waste Connections has offered to work with the City to coordinate a system for specific item pickup requests that weekend for people who cannot afford to get a truck or load items themselves. As well, service clubs or students may also be interested in partnering on that volunteer opportunity to help Lakewood residents take advantage of the opportunity. Recommendation: Because this is the first event of its type in Lakewood, and because Lakewood is a large city with many residences and neighborhoods, it is recommended that Council elect to have the City request a dropoff type of community cleanup event for 2017. If the Council were to agree with this recommendation, tentative dates and times for the event are Saturday, October 28th and Sunday, October 29th from 8:00 AM to 2:00 PM each day. In either format, the 2017 community cleanup event will be evaluated for effectiveness and customer experience, after which staff will return with updated recommendations for 2018 event design. 2 099 To: Mayor and City Councilmembers From: Mary Dodsworth, Parks, Recreation & Community Services Director John Cunningham, Interim Public Works Director Through: John J. Caulfield, City Manager Date: July 18, 2017 Subject: WSDOT Gateway Design Options Attachments: Power Point – Gateway design options Summary: WSDOT has requested support from the City of Lakewood to maintain future landscaped improvements along the I-5 corridor. They are requesting a memorandum of understanding (MOU) between the City and the State indicating the City’s interest in participating in this project. They are in the process of developing a scope of work to design build the project. The City’s level of participation will drive the design process for certain landscaping elements of the project. Background: On June 12, 2017 representatives from WSDOT presented information regarding the I-5 and Mounts Road to Thorne Lane Corridor Improvement projects. The purpose of these improvements is to relieve chronic traffic congestion and improve person and freight mobility along Interstate 5 in the vicinity of Joint Base Lewis-McChord (JBLM) while maintaining access to the communities and military installations neighboring the highway. During this presentation WSDOT staff shared information regarding how design build projects work and the various strategies and timelines they planned to use to accomplish this project. They also presented various opportunities for architectural and aesthetic treatments to walls, decks and gateways. As WSDOT develops the design build Request for Proposal (RFP) and scope of work for this project and because the City requested opportunities to develop City gateways at the Berkley and Thorne Lane interchanges, WSDOT has asked the City of Lakewood to consider participating in future maintence of these areas. The level of commitment from the City will impact the improvements made in these areas. Current Status: WSDOT is requesting a MOU from the City indicating the City’s interest and intent in participating in future maintenance of the Thorne Lane and Berkeley interchanges. The MOU will also address the City’s desire to have access to all 100 interchanges connected to Lakewood (Gravelly Lake, Bridgeport, 84th and 512) so we have the option of entering these areas if improvements are needed. At the July 24 study session staff will present three potential options for Council to consider. Please note the graphics shown in the power point are versions of what could be designed by the selected design build engineers. WSDOT will include direction to the design build team based on the City’s long term commitment to maintaining this area(s). The options are: Option 1. No City support – WSDOT will do minimal aesthetic improvements. Deck and roundabouts will not receive any landscaping treatments. Pros – no financial impact to the City. Cons – sterile / bleak first impression of Lakewood. Option 2. Medium support – dog bone roundabouts will have decorative hardscape and landscaped areas. City could install gateway monument sign (at our expense). Pros – aesthetically pleasing first impression of the City (and JBLM) to citizens and visitors. The City included gateway improvements at the Berkeley and Thorne Lane exits in the current parks 6 year CIP so maintaining a portion of this area was considered and anticipated in future planning. Cons – Additional maintence would be required. Because the area has not been designed, it is difficult to determine future financial impacts to the City. Option 3. All In – side areas of deck will be landscaped and dog bone roundabouts will have decorative hardscape and landscaped areas. City could install gateway monument sign (at our expense). Also suggesting an ivy covered pedestrian wall near Tillicum. Pros – impressive first impression of the City (and JBLM) to citizens and visitors. The City included gateway improvements at the Berkeley and Thorne Lane exits in the current parks 6 year CIP so maintaining a portion of this area was considered and anticipated in future planning. Cons – adding landscaping to the entire deck will increase impact to structure and require more utilities (power, water, stormwater, etc.). Additional maintence would be required. Because the area has not been designed, it is difficult to determine future financial impacts to the City. Timeline: The project is anticipated to start in January, 2022 and take three years to complete. After warranty period, maintenance of the areas would begin in or around 2027. Recommendation: Staff is recommending Option 2. The City included gateway improvements at the Berkeley and Thorne Lane exits in the current parks 6 year CIP so maintaining a portion of this area was considered and anticipated in future planning. The roundabout areas are easier to build and maintain then acres of bushes and ground cover. Landscaping along freeways has a tendency to wither and die out earlier due to environmental and driver (accident) impacts. Concern would be what the areas look like in five to 10 years after the project is complete. Staff would also recommend that any commitment to future maintence be associated with plants, irrigation, city installed gateway signage and possible trash removal. Any maintence associated with the WSDOT structures, walls, roads, markings, signals, signs and improvements are the responsibility of WSDOT along with cost for utilities. City staff will be at the July 24 study session to discuss the City’s options. 101 Camp Murray / Tillicum Neighborhood PEDESTRIAN BARRIER Berkeley Street Interchange 14 102 Thorne Lane Interchange NO TREATMENT – CONCRETE ONLY OPTION 1 Pedestrians Prohibited Non-motorized Path 8 103 Thorne Lane Interchange DECORATIVE HARDSCAPE AND PLANTED ROUNDABOUTS OPTION 2 10 104 Thorne Lane Roundabout Concept 2 105 17 Thorne Lane Interchange OPTION 3 PLANTED DECK AREAS 11 106 Typical Planting Areas INTERCHANGE PLANTING CHARACTER 4 107 Camp Murray / Tillicum Neighborhood OPTION 3 PEDESTRIAN BARRIER 15 108 Camp Murray / Tillicum Neighborhood PEDESTRIAN BARRIER Berkeley Street Interchange 14 109
