City Council Agenda Item 2.1
June 16, 2026 - Parks and Public Works (PPW) Committee
TITLE:Park Impact Fee (PIF) Interim Ordinance Extension (First Reading)
DEPARTMENT:Parks, Recreation and Human Services
PRESENTER:Angie Feser, Director
NEEDED FROM COUNCIL:Informational
RECOMMENDATION:Council hold a Public Hearing on June 23, 2026, considering an
extension of the Park Impact Fee interim ordinance.
BUDGET:
Total Dollar Amount:0 ☐ Approved in Budget
Fund(s):N/A ☐ Budget Reallocation Required
☒ No Budget Impact
PROBLEM/ISSUE STATEMENT:
Changes to State RCW requires revision to the city’s park impact fee calculations and in July 2025, the
Council approved a 12-month interim ordinance to meet the State’s deadline. The city’s park impact fee
program requires an in-depth update, last completed in 2015, and that project is in progress. However,
the completed work will not be ready for the July 2026 ordinance expiration deadline. This request is to
extend the Park Impact Fee interim ordinance for six months with an estimated completion by the end
of 2026.
CONTEXT, ANALYSIS, & ALTERNATIVES:
The City of Edmonds has park impact fees intended to offset the impacts of new development on the
city's park and transportation systems by providing capital funding for improvements, expansion or new
construction of park and street facilities and infrastructure. (ECC) 36.06. These collected fees are
restricted for increased capacity expenditures only and cannot be used for routine maintenance and
operations. The fee charges are based on previously completed rate studies. In 2023 the State of
Washington amended RCW 82.02 that now requires jurisdictions using impact fees to adopt fees which
produce proportionately lower impact fees for smaller housing units. There are three options to
calculate new residential housing fees including square footage, number of bedrooms or trips
generated.
The city’s park impact fee calculation needs to be revised based on the State's new requirement and a
rate study update completed. Historically, park impact fees are based on flat rate fees based on housing
unit type. In July of 2025 an interim ordinance was adopted by Council which revised the rate calculation
to use square footage to comply with new state code requirements. In changing the calculation
approach an update of the city's Park Impact Fees study should be completed since the original study
was done in 2013 with a minor revision in 2015. It is recommended this program be updated on a
regular basis to remain current with inflation and changing park development costs.
The interim ordinance adoption occurred on July 22, 2025, a budget amendment approved on April
Item 2.1
Packet pg. 2/46
7, 2026, to fund the project and a consultant selected and contracted. Even with this progress, the full
update and city code revision will not be completed by July 22, 2026, ordinance expiration deadline and
therefore, an extension is requested.
Alternatives –
1. Council approves the Park Impact Fee interim ordinance extension, and the study and code revision
work continues.
2. Council does not approve the Park Impact Fee interim ordinance extension and the July 22, 2026,
interim ordinance expires.
RECOMMENDATION:
Council hold a Public Hearing on June 23, 2026 considering an extension of the Park Impact Fee interim
ordinance.
BUDGET IMPACTS:
No direct budget impact resulting from the extension. The funding necessary to complete the project
using a consultant was approved by Council during the April 7, 2026 budget amendment.

The city council of the city of Edmonds (the “council”) hereby finds and determines that new growth and
development in the city of Edmonds will create additional demand and need for public facilities in the city of
Edmonds, and the council finds that new growth and development should pay a proportionate share of the cost of new
facilities needed to serve the new growth and development.
The city of Edmonds has conducted extensive studies documenting the procedures for measuring the impact of new
developments on public facilities, has prepared the rate study and procedures guide for park impact fees, has prepared
the rate study and procedures guide for transportation impact fees, and hereby incorporates these studies into this title
by reference. Therefore, pursuant to Chapter 82.02 RCW, the council adopts the ordinance codified in this chapter to
assess impact fees for parks and streets. The provisions of this chapter shall be liberally construed in order to carry
out the purposes of the council in establishing the impact fee program. These fees can and will only be applied to
projects resulting from city-wide development growth. These fees cannot be used to mitigate existing shortfalls of the
park system or street system. [Ord. 4037 § 1 (Att. A), 2016; Ord. 3934 § 1 (Exh. A), 2013].

family residential neighborhood.
B. Timing and Calculation of Fees. Impact fees shall be assessed based upon the impact fee rates in effect at the time
of issuance of the building permit, including but not limited to change of use permit or remodel permit.
1. For a change in use of an existing building or dwelling unit, including any alteration, expansion, replacement
or new accessory building, the impact fee shall be the applicable impact fee for the new use, less an amount
equal to the applicable impact fee for the prior use.
2. For mixed use developments, impact fees shall be imposed for the proportionate share of each land use based
on the applicable measurement in the impact fee rates set forth in ECC 3.36.120 and 3.36.125.
3. Where the impact fees imposed are determined by the square footage of the development, the building official
will establish the gross floor area created by the proposed development.
4. Applicants that have been awarded credits prior to the submittal of the complete building permit application
pursuant to ECC 3.36.050 shall submit, along with the complete building permit application, a copy of the letter
or certificate prepared by the director pursuant to ECC 3.36.050 setting forth the dollar amount of the credit
awarded.

program. The amount of the administrative fee shall be established and updated from time to time by resolution
of the city council.

or other approval unless and until the impact fees set forth in ECC 3.36.120 and 3.36.125 have been paid in the
amount that they exceed exemptions or credits provided pursuant to ECC 3.36.040 or 3.36.050; provided, that
building permits may be issued without impact fee payment when payment is deferred in accordance with ECC
3.36.160. [Ord. 4037 § 1 (Att. A), 2016; Ord. 3934 § 1 (Exh. A), 2013].
3.36.040 Exemptions.
A. Except as provided for below, the following shall be exempted from the payment of all impact fees under this
chapter:
1. Alteration of an existing nonresidential structure that does not involve a change in use and does not expand
the usable space or add any residential units;
2. Miscellaneous improvements that do not expand usable space or add any residential units, including, but not
limited to, fences, walls, swimming pools, and signs;
3. Demolition or moving of a structure;
4. Expansion of an existing structure that results in the addition of 100 square feet or less of gross floor area;
5. Replacement of a structure with a new structure of the same size and use at the same site or lot when a
building permit application for such replacement is submitted to the City within 12 months of the demolition or
destruction of the prior structure. Replacement of a structure with a new structure of the same size shall be
interpreted to include any structure for which the gross square footage of the building will not be increased by
more than 100 square feet; or
6. Alterations, expansions, enlargement, remodeling, rehabilitation or conversion of an existing dwelling unit
where no additional dwelling units are created and the use is not changed (accessory dwelling units (ADU) are
not considered to create additional dwelling units because ECDC 20.21.020 does not consider ADUs as
increasing the overall density of a single-family residential neighborhood, and because the city’s traffic model
does not assign additional trips to the network as a result of ADUs).
B. Low-income housing units shall be exempt from paying eighty percent of the transportation traffic impact fees to
the extent the units satisfy this subsection. Such exemption shall be conditioned upon the developer recording a
covenant that prohibits using the low-income housing units for any purpose other than for low-income housing. At a
minimum, the covenant must address price restrictions and household income limits for the low-income housing
development, and that if the property is converted to a use other than for low-income housing, the property owner
must pay the applicable impact fees in effect at the time of conversion. The covenant shall also require the owner to
submit an annual report to the city along with supporting documentation that shows that the low-income units are
continuing to be rented in compliance with the covenant. The covenant shall be an obligation that runs with the land
upon which the housing is located. The covenant shall be in a form acceptable to the city attorney and shall be
recorded upon the developer’s payment of the remaining twenty percent of the street impact fee.
C. Multi-family housing unit (with tax exemption under RCW 84.14.020(1)(a)(ii)(D)) and located within a station are
(as defined in RCW 36.07A-030) – essentially within ½ mile walkshed of a rail station or ¼ mile walkshed of a BRT
Station shall be exempt from paying 50% of the transportation impact fee.
D. Except as provided for below, the following shall be exempted from the payment of park impact fees under this
chapter:
1. Low-income housing provided by nonprofit organizations such as, but not limited to, Habitat for Humanity.
Owners of low-income single-family dwelling units, condominiums and other low-income housing shall execute and
record a lien against the property, in favor of the city, for a period of 10 years guaranteeing that the dwelling unit will
continue to be used for low-income housing or that impact fees from which the low-income housing is exempted,
plus interest, shall be paid. The lien against the property shall be subordinate only to the lien for general taxes. In the
event that the development is no longer used for low-income rental housing, the owner shall pay the city the impact
fee from which the owner or any prior owner was exempt, plus interest at the statutory rate. Any claim for an
exemption for low-income owner occupied housing must be made no later than the time of application for a building
permit. Any claim not so made shall be deemed waivedCD. The director shall be authorized to determine whether a
particular development activity falls within an exemption identified in this section, in any other section, or under
other applicable law. Determinations of the director shall be in writing and shall be subject to the appeals procedures
set forth in ECC 3.36.070. [Ord. 4037 § 1 (Att. A), 2016; Ord. 3934 § 1 (Exh. A), 2013].
3.36.050 Credits.
A. Pursuant to the requirement of RCW 82.02.060(4), a feepayer shall be entitled to a credit for the value of any
dedication of land for, improvement to, or new construction of any system improvements provided by the feepayer, to
facilities that are identified in the capital facilities plan and that are required by the city as a condition of approving
the development activity.
B. The director shall determine if requests for credits meet the criteria in subsection (A) of this section.
Item 2.1
Packet pg. 13/46
- 6 -
C. For each request for a credit or credits, the director shall select an appraiser or the feepayer may select an
independent appraiser acceptable to the director.
D. The appraiser must be prequalified by the city and shall not have a fiduciary or personal interest in the property
being appraised. A description of the appraiser’s certification shall be included with the appraisal, and the appraiser
shall certify that he/she does not have a fiduciary or personal interest in the property being appraised.
E. The appraiser shall be directed to determine the total value of the dedicated land, improvements, and/or
construction provided by the feepayer on a case-by-case basis.
F. The feepayer shall pay for the cost of the appraisal or request that the cost of the appraisal be deducted from the
credit which the director may be providing to the feepayer, in the event that a credit is awarded.
G. After receiving the appraisal, the director shall provide the applicant with a letter or certificate setting forth the
dollar amount of the credit, the reason for the credit, the legal description of the site donated where applicable, and
the legal description or other adequate description of the project or development to which the credit may be applied.
The applicant must sign and date a duplicate copy of such letter or certificate indicating his/her agreement to the
terms of the letter or certificate, and return such signed document to the director before the impact fee credit will be
awarded. The failure of the applicant to sign, date, and return such document within 60 calendar days shall nullify the
credit.
H. No credit shall be given for project improvements required of the development by city code and/or SEPA; only
dedications in excess of those required by law are eligible for credit. In no event shall this provision be interpreted to
authorize cash payment. Nothing herein shall be interpreted to limit the discretion of the city council to decline to
accept any proposed dedication.
I. A feepayer can request that a credit or credits for impact fees be awarded to him/her for significant past tax
payments. For each request for a credit or credits for significant past tax payments for impact fees, the feepayer shall
submit receipts and a calculation of past tax payments earmarked for or pro-ratable to the particular system
improvement. The director shall determine the amount of credits, if any, for significant past tax payments for public
facilities.
J. Any claim for credit must be made no later than 20 calendar days after the submission of an application for a
building permit. The failure to timely file such a claim shall constitute a final bar to later request any such credit.
K. Determinations made by the director pursuant to this section shall be subject to the appeals procedures set forth in
ECC 3.36.070.
L. A feepayer may, in the alternative, appeal an assessment or mitigation requirement which he believes exceeds the
total which may lawfully be imposed. See ECDC 18.50.020(C). [Ord. 4037 § 1 (Att. A), 2016; Ord. 3934 § 1 (Exh.
A), 2013].
3.36.060 Tax adjustments.
Pursuant to and consistent with the requirements of RCW 82.02.060, the rate study has provided adjustments for
future taxes to be paid by the new development which are earmarked or pro-ratable to the same new public facilities
which will serve the new development. The impact fee rates in ECC 3.36.120 and 3.36.125 have been reasonably
adjusted for taxes and other revenue sources which are anticipated to be available to fund public improvements. [Ord.
4037 § 1 (Att. A), 2016; Ord. 3934 § 1 (Exh. A), 2013].
3.36.070 Appeals.
A. Any feepayer may pay the impact fees imposed by this chapter under protest in order to obtain a building permit.
B. Appeals regarding the amount of the impact fee imposed on any development activity may only be filed by the
feepayer of the property where such development activity will occur. This provision shall control over any other
provisions of city ordinance.
C. The feepayer must first file a request for review regarding impact fees with the director, as provided herein:
1. The request shall be in writing on the form provided by the city;
2. The request for review by the director shall be filed within 14 calendar days of the feepayer’s payment of the
impact fees at issue. The failure to timely file such a request shall constitute a final bar to later seek such review;
3. An administrative fee will be imposed for the request for review by the director; this shall be the same as that
imposed for a request for reconsideration of a staff decision;
4. The director shall issue his/her determination in writing within 14 days from the receipt of a request for
review.
D. Determinations of the director with respect to the applicability of the impact fees to a given development activity,
the availability or value of a credit, or the director’s decision concerning the independent fee calculation which is
authorized in ECC 3.36.130, or the fees imposed by the director pursuant to ECC 3.36.120 and 3.36.125, or any other
determination which the director is authorized to make pursuant to this chapter, can be appealed to the hearing
examiner.
Item 2.1
Packet pg. 14/46
- 7 -
E. The decision of the director may be appealed to the hearing examiner as a Type II decision. [Ord. 4037 § 1 (Att.
A), 2016; Ord. 3934 § 1 (Exh. A), 2013].
3.36.080 Establishment of impact fee accounts.
A. Impact fee receipts shall be earmarked specifically and deposited in special interest-bearing accounts.
B. There is hereby established a separate impact fee account for the park impact fees collected pursuant to this
chapter, the park impact account. There is also hereby established a separate impact fee account for the transportation
traffic impact fees collected pursuant to this chapter, the transportation traffic impact account. Funds withdrawn from
these accounts must be used in accordance with the provisions of ECC 3.36.100 and applicable state law. Interest
earned on the fees shall be retained in the respective accounts and expended for the purposes for which the impact
fees were collected.
C. On an annual basis, the finance director shall provide a report to the council on the impact fee accounts showing
the source and amount of all monies collected, earned, or received, and the public improvements that were financed
in whole or in part by impact fees.
D. Impact fees shall be expended or encumbered within 10 years of receipt, unless the council identifies in written
findings extraordinary and compelling reason or reasons for the city to hold the fees beyond the 10-year period.
Under such circumstances, and prior to the expiration of the 10-year period, the council shall establish the period of
time within which the impact fees shall be expended or encumbered. [Ord. 4037 § 1 (Att. A), 2016; Ord. 3934 § 1
(Exh. A), 2013].
3.36.090 Refunds.
A. If the city fails to expend or encumber the impact fees within 10 years of when the fees were paid or, where
extraordinary or compelling reasons exist, such other time periods as established pursuant to ECC 3.36.080, the
current owner of the property on which impact fees have been paid may receive a refund of such fees. In determining
whether impact fees have been expended or encumbered, impact fees shall be considered expended or encumbered on
a first-in, first-out basis.
B. The city shall notify potential claimants by first class mail that they are eligible for an impact fee refund. This
notification shall be done by first class mail deposited with the United States Postal Service at the last known address
of such claimants. A potential claimant must be the owner of the property.
C. Owners seeking a refund of impact fees must submit a written request for a refund of the fees to the director within
one year of the date the right to claim the refund arises or the date that notice is given, whichever is later.
D. Any impact fees for which no application for a refund has been made within this one-year period shall be retained
by the city and expended on the appropriate public facilities.
E. Refunds of impact fees under this section shall include any interest earned on the impact fees by the city.
F. When the city seeks to terminate any or all components of the impact fee program, all unexpended or
unencumbered funds from any terminated component or components, including interest earned, shall be refunded
pursuant to this section. Upon the finding that any or all fee requirements are to be terminated, the city shall place
notice of such termination and the availability of refunds in a newspaper of general circulation at least two times and
shall notify all potential claimants by first class mail at the last known address of the claimants. All funds available
for refund shall be retained for a period of one year.
At the end of one year, any remaining funds shall be retained by the city, but must be expended for the appropriate
public facilities. This notice requirement shall not apply if there are no unexpended or unencumbered balances within
the account or accounts being terminated.
G. The city shall also refund to the current owner of property for which impact fees have been paid, including interest
earned on the impact fees, if the development activity for which the impact fees were imposed did not occur;
provided, that if the city has expended or encumbered the impact fees in good faith prior to the application for a
refund, the director can decline to provide the refund. If within a period of three years, the same or subsequent owner
of the property proceeds with the same or substantially similar development activity, the owner can petition the
director for an offset. The petitioner must provide receipts of impact fees previously paid for a development of the
same or substantially similar nature on the same property or some portion thereof. Determinations of the director
shall be in writing and shall be subject to the appeals procedures set forth in ECC 3.36.070. [Ord. 4037 § 1 (Att. A),
2016; Ord. 3934 § 1 (Exh. A), 2013].
3.36.100 Use of funds.
A. Pursuant to this chapter, impact fees:
1. Shall be used for public improvements that will reasonably benefit new development; and
2. Shall not be imposed to make up for deficiencies in public facilities serving existing developments; and
3. Shall not be used for maintenance or operations.
Item 2.1
Packet pg. 15/46
- 8 -
B. Impact fees may be spent for public improvements, including, but not limited to, planning, engineering, surveying,
land acquisition, right-of-way acquisition, site improvements, necessary off-site improvements, construction,
architectural, permitting, financing, and administrative expenses, applicable impact fees or mitigation costs, and any
other expenses which can be capitalized.
C. Impact fees may also be used to recoup public improvement costs previously incurred by the city to the extent that
new growth and development will be served by the previously constructed improvements or incurred costs.
D. In the event that bonds or similar debt instruments are or have been issued for the advanced provision of public
improvements for which impact fees may be expended, impact fees may be used to pay debt service on such bonds or
similar debt instruments to the extent that the facilities or improvements provided are consistent with the
requirements of this section and are used to serve the new development. [Ord. 4037 § 1 (Att. A), 2016; Ord. 3934 § 1
(Exh. A), 2013].
3.36.110 Review.
The fee rates set forth in ECC 3.36.120 and 3.36.125 may be reviewed and adjusted by the council as it deems
necessary and appropriate in conjunction with the annual update of the capital facilities plan element of the city’s
comprehensive plan. The fee rates may be adjusted 12 months after the effective date of the ordinance codified in this
chapter, or 12 months after the most recent review by the council.
The council may determine the amount of any adjustment up or down and revise the fee rates set forth in ECC
3.36.120 and 3.36.125. [Ord. 4037 § 1 (Att. A), 2016; Ord. 3934 § 1 (Exh. A), 2013].

3.36.130 Independent fee calculations.
A. If in the judgment of the director, none of the fee categories or fee amounts set forth in ECC 3.36.120 and/or
3.36.125 accurately describe or capture the impacts of a new development on parks and/or streets, the department
may ask the applicant to conduct independent fee calculations and the director may impose alternative fees on a
specific development based on those calculations. The alternative fees and the calculations shall be set forth in
writing and shall be agreed to by the director and the feepayer. The documentation submitted shall show the basis
upon which the independent fee calculation was made.
B. Any feepayer submitting an independent fee calculation will be required to pay the city of Edmonds a fee to cover
the cost of reviewing the independent fee calculation. A fee is required by the city for conducting the review of the
independent fee calculation plus the actual cost of outside consultant review if required by the city, unless otherwise
established by the director, and shall be paid by the feepayer prior to initiation of review.
C. While there is a presumption that the calculations set forth in the rate study are valid, the director shall consider the
documentation submitted by the feepayer, but is not required to accept such documentation or analysis which the
director reasonably deems to be inaccurate or not reliable, and may, in the alternative, require the feepayer to submit
additional or different documentation for consideration. The director is authorized to adjust the impact fees on a case-
by-case basis based on the independent fee calculation, the specific characteristics of the development, and/or
principles of fairness. The fees or alternative fees and the calculations shall be set forth in writing and shall be mailed
to the feepayer.
D. Determinations made by the director pursuant to this section may be appealed to the office of the hearing examiner
as set forth in ECC 3.36.070. [Ord. 4037 § 1 (Att. A), 2016; Ord. 3934 § 1 (Exh. A), 2013].
3.36.140 Existing authority unimpaired.
Nothing in this chapter shall preclude the city from requiring the feepayer or the proponent of a development activity
to mitigate adverse environmental impacts of a specific development pursuant to the State Environmental Policy Act,
Chapter 43.21C RCW, based on the environmental documents accompanying the underlying development approval
process, and/or Chapter 58.17 RCW, governing plats and subdivisions; provided, that the exercise of this authority is
consistent with the provisions of Chapters 43.21C and 82.02 RCW. [Ord. 4037 § 1 (Att. A), 2016; Ord. 3934 § 1
(Exh. A), 2013].
3.36.150 Procedures guide.
The director is authorized to develop a procedures guide to facilitate the city’s administration and enforcement of this
chapter. The procedures guide shall be consistent with the provisions of this chapter, shall be for the sole convenience
of the city, and shall not vest any rights in or for any other person. [Ord. 4037 § 1 (Att. A), 2016; Ord. 3934 § 1 (Exh.
A), 2013].

3.36.160 Deferral system for single-family residences.
A. An applicant for a building permit for a single-family detached or attached residence may request a deferral of the
full impact fee payment until final inspection. The building official may withhold certification of final inspection
until the impact fees have been paid in full.
B. The amount of impact fees that may be deferred under this section must be determined by the fees in effect at the
time the applicant applies for a deferral.
C. The term of an impact fee deferral under this section may not exceed 18 months from the date of building permit
issuance.
D. An applicant seeking a deferral under this section must grant and record a deferred impact fee lien against the
property in favor of the city in the amount of the deferred impact fee. The deferred impact fee lien, which must
include the legal description, tax account number, and address of the property, must also be:
1. In a form approved by the city attorney;
2. Signed by all owners of the property, as demonstrated by a current title report, with all signatures
acknowledged as required for a deed;
3. Recorded with the Snohomish County auditor’s office;
4. Binding on all successors in title after the recordation; and
5. Junior and subordinate to one mortgage for the purpose of construction upon the same real property granted
by the person who applied for the deferral of impact fees.
E. If impact fees are not paid in accordance with a deferral authorized by this section, the city may institute
foreclosure proceedings in accordance with Chapter 61.12 RCW.
F. In addition to the administrative fee collected pursuant to ECC 3.36.030(B)(5), the city shall collect an additional
reasonable administrative fee to implement this section from permit applicants who are seeking to delay the payment
of impact fees under this section. The amount of the administrative fee shall be established and updated from time to
time by resolution of the city council.
G. The section shall be construed to be consistent with state law and RCW 82.02.050, in particular. [Ord. 4037 § 1
(Att. A), 2016].
Section 3. Severability. If any section, subsection, clause, sentence, or phrase of this
ordinance should be held invalid or unconstitutional, such decision shall not affect the validity of
the remaining portions of this ordinance.
Section 4. Effective Date. This ordinance, being an administrative function of the city
council, is not subject to referendum and shall not take effect until five (5) days after passage and
publication of an approved summary thereof consisting of the title, PROVIDED THAT, in no case
shall the ordinance take effect before July 1, 2026.

TITLE:Presentation of PSA for Sewer Comprehensive Plan Update (First
Reading)
DEPARTMENT:Public Works and Utilities
PRESENTER:Mike De Lilla
NEEDED FROM COUNCIL:Action
RECOMMENDATION:Forward this item to the consent agenda for approval.
BUDGET:
Total Dollar Amount:$440,080 ☒ Approved in Budget

☐ No Budget Impact
PROBLEM/ISSUE STATEMENT:
The City’s current Sewer Comprehensive Plan was written in 2013 and needs to be updated by the end
of 2027 or early 2028.
CONTEXT, ANALYSIS, & ALTERNATIVES:
The comprehensive sewer system plan needs to be updated regularly to keep up with changes in federal
and state regulatory updates, monitor and track maintenance rates & trends, and address changes and
increases in population density due to zoning and land use. The update will also reflect changing
demands, system conditions, and provide updated guidance, since the last update was 13 years ago. The
result being that the document will aid in the determination of future projects so that our pipe network
can continue to keep up with future demands. The key elements to be addressed include a sewer
system analysis, capital facility plan, financial program, operations and maintenance program. A
Request for Qualifications (RFQ) was advertised on January 15 and January 22, 2026.
The City received two Statements of Qualifications (SOQ) from Consor North America and BHC
Consultants. The SOQs were evaluated based on the consultants’ Project Approach, Related Experience
of Firms on Team, Qualifications of Proposed Project Manager, Expertise of Key Staff (Prime and Sub
Consultants), and References/Past Performance. Interviews were conducted with the two firms to
provide further information on the above referenced evaluation criteria.
Based on this selection criteria, BHC was selected due to their extensive knowledge of Edmonds sewer
system and their experience preparing sewer system plans for agencies throughout the Puget Sound.
There will be opportunities for public comment on the draft plan which will be included in the final
adopted comprehensive water system plan.
RECOMMENDATION:
Forward this item to the consent agenda for approval.

Task 5 – Conveyance System Analysis
Description: Summarize results from the 2025 Sanitary Sewer Hydraulic Model Future Scenario Update to
identify potential areas of limited capacity based on existing and future flows. The 2025 Model
Update identified required improvements to remove capacity limitations. Evaluate high-level
alternatives for LS-1 improvements.
Receivables:
▪ Field measurements of manhole depths and/or flow direction on an as-needed basis.
▪ Marked up map with areas of any known capacity deficiencies.
Assumptions:
▪ Hydraulic modeling will be performed in PCSWMM software.
▪ Hydraulic model is up to date based on work for the 2025 Sanitary Sewer Hydraulic Model Future
Scenario Update.
▪ Previous model simulations will be used to evaluate collection system deficiencies at 6- and 20-
year planning horizons. 20-year (2044) model will be used to evaluate sizing for collection system
improvements. A buildout model is not included.
▪ CIP improvement modeling will be limited to increasing pipe sizes and pump capacities. Multiple
alternatives will not be evaluated, except for LS-1.
Work Tasks:
5.1 Collection System Evaluation
o Update infiltration and inflow loading using existing meter data from the City.
o Use the current hydraulic model output to evaluate the existing collection system to confirm
capacity to convey wastewater under average and peak flow conditions under existing and
2044 scenarios. Identify system deficiencies and improvements necessary to resolve them.
Specifically assess the ability of the system to convey flow from growth within the service area
through the existing pipe network.
o Evaluate the following alternatives for LS-1:
o Increase pumping capacity.
o Replace with a deep gravity sewer.
o Divert a portion of the sewer system upstream to reduce flows to LS-1, including
impacts to basins receiving diverted flows.
o Combination of the above alternatives.
o Deficiency criteria for the existing system and criteria for improvements will be discussed with
the City. These will include considerations for surcharge, available capacity for new and
existing infrastructure, and other metrics to support prioritization of improvements.
5.2 Develop Chapter 6 – Collection System Modeling.
o Organize the results of the analysis. Show and identify undercapacity pipes and improvements
needed to resolve identified deficiencies for the existing, 6-year, and 20-year conditions. Show
