1. Improvements or strategies

The 224th St. E. project accomplishes multiple goals expressed in Pierce County’sComprehensive Plan and the Graham Community Plan, which are quoted below:

Page F-25, Vision Statement—"A variety of transportation modes are interconnected withinthe community, operate efficiently, and provide convenient access to nearby urban areas.Businesses, schools, fire district, law enforcement, and other community services arerecognized as an important part of the community's resource base. A compact andattractive town center serves as the focal point for commerce and community activities forall ages.” The proposed project provides pedestrian mobility within the Rural ActivityCenter to provide access between schools, businesses, and parking areas.

Page F-93—"All pedestrian walkways and access areas should be clearly signed, lighted,and delineated on the concrete or asphalt to promote pedestrian safety.” The proposedproject will include illumination within the Rural Activity Center.

Page F-97—"Support the development of a transportation network that provides for ease oftravel throughout the community, convenient access to commercial centers, and a variety ofmodes of travel linking schools with other areas.” The proposed project provides a missinglink in the sidewalk network connecting three schools within 1/2 Mile to the Rural ActivityCenter.

Page F-192—"Roadways should include shoulders or sidewalks that allow for safepedestrian and bicycle movement or alternatively, nonmotorized trail systems should beprovided. These systems should connect residential areas with commercial nodes.” Theproposed project provides curb, gutter, sidewalk, and paved shoulder.

Page F-203, Goal GR T-1—"Create an interconnected, multimodal transportation systemthat provides amenities to its users and convenient access to nearby urban areas whileretaining a rural character.” The proposed project enhances the Rural Activity Center’swalkability and recognizability as a distinct commercial destination.

Page F-205, Goal GR T-2—"Implement transportation improvements in the plan area inaccordance with the project recommendations included in the Graham Community Plan.”Our project aligns with the Graham Community Plan project IDs G6 and G7.

Page F-205, Goal GR T-2.1—"Use the plan’s project list and maps to guide programmingand implementation of transportation projects.” Our project aligns with the Graham

Community Plan project IDs G6 and G7.

2. How project fits character

This project expands pedestrian amenities in the Rural Activity Center (RAC), facilitatingnon-motorized movement between the various businesses in the vicinity. The completedsidewalk network, complemented by new luminaires, will provide a finished look that theRAC is currently lacking, especially along 224th St. E. Residents and visitors who passthrough the improved center will gain a greater sense of separation between thesurrounding rural landscape and the distinct, compact commercial areas of the RAC.

Mobility, Accessibility, and Safety

1. Issues being addressed

The project addresses an incomplete non-motorized system on 224th St. E. The incompletesystem currently discourages walking, not just between the various businesses within thecenter, but to and from three local schools within walking distance.

These gaps pose safety and accessibility issues, especially for pedestrians who requiremobility devices. The proposed sidewalk footprint is currently occupied by paved shoulder,gravel shoulder, planting areas, asphalt barrier curbs, or a combination of these elements.They also cross several busy road approaches on 224th St. E. to the adjacent commercialparking lots. For lack of a clearly delineated sidewalk, these approaches are hazardous forpedestrians to cross, especially during hours of darkness. Altogether, these elements makefor a daunting roadside traverse between the existing segments of sidewalk.

The new sidewalk will provide a safer walking path and a clear visual signal to traffic usingthe approaches that pedestrians may be present. Illumination will ensure that all road usersare aware of each other’s presence.

2. Provide better access

The project provides improved walkability within the Rural Activity Center, and between thecenter and three nearby schools. Students, teachers, and visitors to the school grounds andplay fields will benefit from the completed sidewalk network, allowing the option of a quickten-minute walk to the commercial area, instead of a short drive. Local residents andrecreational traffic will benefit from the enhanced walkability within the center, reducing theneed to use a vehicle to move between the various businesses. More than fifty businessesare present within the center.

3. Multimodal improvements

The project is multimodal in that it encourages Rural Activity Center visitors and employeesto walk between the various amenities within the center once they arrive by vehicle. Or towalk to the center from the nearby schools and playfields, instead of driving. Completingthe public sidewalk will also encourage developers to include pedestrian connectionswithin the center as they pursue further developments.

4. Pedestrian improvements

4 of 10

Much of the developed area within the Rural Activity Center provides pedestrian access tothe public sidewalk. However, these are mainly access points to Meridian E.; there are fewsuch walking paths to the roadside along 224th St. E., likely due to the missing segment ofsidewalk. This disrupts the flow and tone of non-motorized movement within the activitycenter, and provides less incentive for developers in this section to consider pedestrianaccess to the roadside for their patrons and employees.

The proposed project sets a new tone for future construction in the center, signaling that theentire public right-of-way along 224th St. E. is a pedestrian-friendly environment. Thatmessage will bolster several vacant properties adjacent to the project area, and encourageboth new and existing development to integrate their pedestrian systems with the publicnetwork.

5. Contributes to demand management

A completed sidewalk network on 224th St. E. will encourage a better balance of driving-to-walking within the Rural Activity Center, which serves the goals of transportation demandmanagement by reducing the appetite for vehicle use and parking within the center.

System Performance and Innovative Solutions

1. Improvements increase reliability

The project reduces the appetite for vehicle travel and parking within the Rural ActivityCenter and along 224th St. E. by providing viable walking alternatives.

2. Improvements maximize efficiency

The project is adjacent to both existing commercial space as well as several vacant lots.Without the proposed improvements, the lack of sidewalk in front of existing developmentswill remain a conspicuous omission that separates and isolates the sidewalk in front ofnewer development. If the proposed project is funded, however, this network gap will beclosed and the required frontage improvements of future developments will be fullyintegrated with the public pedestrian facilities throughout the Rural Activity Center.

3. Innovative concepts studied

As we begin design we will analyze innovative concepts with the goal of bringing the bestimprovement to the community at the least cost and impact.

Social Equity, Environmental Justice, and Public Health

1. Social groups being served

The project serves students, parents, teachers, and visitors to three local schools by closinga sidewalk gap to provide a continuous, accessible, 10-minute walking route between theschool grounds and the Rural Activity Center. Consumers passing through the Grahamarea will also benefit from the improved walkability within the center, which is the most

5 of 10

complete commercial launching point for activities in the surrounding rural areas until youreach Eatonville to the south. Likewise, Local residents, employees, and business ownerswill enjoy improved options for walking as an alternative to driving and parking.

The project is located within an area which PSRC classifies as Low or Very Low on their“Opportunity Index.” This means that the census tracts adjacent to the project are in thebottom two quintiles when compared against other tracts in the Puget Sound region foraccess to education, economic health, housing and neighborhood quality, mobility andtransportation, health, and environment. Sidewalk improvements on 224th St. E. willenhance the economic health and quality of transportation within the Graham Rural ActivityCenter, which is the community’s primary nexus for employment and commercial activity.

4. Possibility of condemnation

Pierce County believes that condemnation is a low probability risk with a moderatepotential impact. The County believes that the benefits of the project to adjacent propertyowners will help avoid contentious negotiations, however, if condemnation becamenecessary, it would require Council action coinciding with the conclusion of negotiationswith property owners, eight to ten months following the start of the right-of-way phase. TheCounty would then acquire possession and use through an “adjudication of public use orprivate way of necessity.” Should this become necessary, Pierce County is fully prepared totake the appropriate steps to meet its 2022 construction date.

living -- safe and peaceful neighborhoods, small town friendliness, affordability, and an abundance of natural beauty highlighted by the splendor of Mount Rainier. It maintains its distinctive natural environment by preserving open space, greenbelts, lakes, streams, wetlands, and agricultural areas. Planned growth is designed to enhance the community's rural atmosphere while protecting natural resources, and incorporates a level of public infrastructure to meet current and future needs. A variety of transportation modes are interconnected within the community, operate efficiently, and provide convenient access to nearby urban areas. Businesses, schools, fire district, law enforcement, and other community services are recognized as an important part of the community's resource base. A compact and attractive town center serves as the focal point for commerce and community activities for all ages. Passive and active parks, trails, and recreational facilities are accessible throughout the community.

be utilized to address stormwater drainage issues and the use of traditional conveyance and pond systems should be minimized. Where detention and retention stormwater facilities are used, these facilities should be designed to resemble natural wetland systems, employing gentle slopes and native trees and vegetation in the overall design. Buildings and infrastructure should be oriented on the site to respond in the best manner to natural elements such as sun, wind, and rain. When possible, building structures should be grounded or “nestled” into the landscape and clustered in pockets with open space situated towards any major road to preserve the rural character. Siting buildings on ridgelines should be avoided to protect the visual quality of skylines.

RESIDENTIAL DESIGN

Residential development should reflect the rural character of the plan area. In the urban portions of the plan area, residential designs should provide for urban amenities such as sidewalks, street trees, street lights, adequate on-street and off-street parking, school bus kiosks, and neighborhood park and recreation facilities. The scale and intensity of urban residential development should be reduced to provide a transition between the higher intensity residential uses typically found in South Hill and the rural portions of the plan area. Rural residential development should occur in a larger lot pattern and reflect a variety of rural or agricultural character through the use of design features such as covered porches and verandas. Common open space areas should be integrated into residential developments to preserve critical areas and preserve a rural feel. Design and architectural standards and guidelines should be developed for urban single-family and multifamily residential developments and to prevent monotony of dwelling units along streetscape. Home occupations and cottage industries should be allowed but only in conformance with standards that ensure these uses reflect and maintain an appropriate residential character.

COMMERCIAL, CIVIC AND INDUSTRIAL DESIGN

Commercial, civic and industrial uses should be designed in compact nodes with an architectural style that reflects the rural character of the plan area. Architectural features such as covered entryways, walkways, sloped or stepped roof and porch designs should be integrated into storefronts and the use of wooden or natural construction materials should be incorporated to elicit a rural town feeling. All pedestrian walkways and access areas should be clearly signed, lighted, and delineated on the concrete or asphalt to promote pedestrian safety. Commercial developments should incorporate

pedestrian amenities such as benches, trash receptacles, fountains, and plazas. Service areas and lighting should be designed to minimize any impacts from glare, odor, and noise through

Pierce County Comprehensive Plan | Graham Community Plan F-97

Preserve the natural feel and scenic beauty of the plan area. People choose to live in Graham and the surrounding area because they like the feeling of being in the country.

Establish development standards that encourage a variety of building designs suitable to the area’s rural character, preserve open space and greenbelts, and promote surface water management using low impact development techniques.

Support the development of a transportation network that provides for ease of travel throughout the community, convenient access to commercial centers, and a variety of modes of travel linking schools with other areas, using a variety of native plants to maintain a scenic appearance for people using the roadways.

Ensure that signs in the plan area are at a scale and design appropriate to a rural atmosphere, while accommodating the need to provide information on events, activities, and businesses in the community.

Promote opportunities to increase public appreciation and awareness of the history of the Graham area, encourage preservation of historic sites and structures, and promote the continuation of traditional public events.

Designate a community service area in central Graham to accommodate a community center, recreation opportunities, museum, visitor information, and social services.

Recognize that the Graham Community Plan area serves as a gateway to Mount Rainier and provides a transition from the higher density/intensity Urban Growth Areas to rural and resource areas.

DESIGN

DESIGN STANDARDS AND REVIEW

GOAL GR D-1 Guide development in a manner that will further enhance the existing rural character and identity of the plan area. Compatibly design proposed residential, commercial, civic, and industrial development within the visual context of the surrounding area and be sensitive to existing uses and site conditions.

GR D-1.1 Site plans for all proposed multifamily, commercial, civic, office/business, utility and industrial developments shall clearly illustrate all proposed buildings, landscaping, tree retention and replacement areas, critical areas and associated buffers, parking areas, lighting, utilities, stormwater facilities, access points and streetscapes, public spaces or common areas, pedestrian amenities, loading areas, trash and recycling collection areas, fencing, sidewalks and walkways, bikeways, and adjacent properties.

becoming a wholesale water supplier to existing Class A water purveyors. Class A water purveyors should also work with Class B systems or individuals to acquire currently underutilized water. As new development proposals are submitted Letters of Water Availability should be required that demonstrate which water right is being used and how much water is available in order to track cumulative impacts to the groundwater source.

TRANSPORTATION

The Transportation Section provides a foundation for the improvement of transportation facilities in the plan area. The policies, along with the prioritized project recommendations, provide guidance on the type and location of improvements that should be pursued over the next twenty years.

A number of themes are contained in the plan policies and project recommendations. The transportation system within the plan area should be designed to accommodate increased commuter traffic volumes as well as recreational/tourist related trips while still exhibiting a rural character. Roadways should include shoulders or sidewalks that allow for safe pedestrian and bicycle movement or alternatively, nonmotorized trail systems should be provided. These systems should connect residential areas with commercial nodes. When possible, streets should be oriented in such a manner as to take advantage of scenic views and vistas. A program should be undertaken to improve traffic flow, safety, and access. Future roadways should be sited to maintain existing neighborhoods, protect vital environmental features, and facilitate emergency vehicle access.

Transit routes should be added and frequency increased as the population increases. Bus stops and shelters should be integrated into the streetscape, especially in the more urban portions of the plan area. Development of the “Train to the Mountain” should occur and the opportunity for a train stop within the Graham Rural Activity Center (RAC) at 224th St. E. and Meridian should be examined.

PRIORITIZATION OF TRANSPORTATION PROJECTS

Future transportation improvements should be completed based upon a prioritization of projects considering existing safety issues, community needs and desires, and costs. Most of these improvements were previously identified in the Pierce County Comprehensive Plan; however, several new projects have been listed to address community concerns. The most notable additions to the project recommendations may be those within the Graham RAC. A set of north-south and east-west roads is proposed within the Graham RAC that would allow vehicles to circulate around the commercial area without having to use SR 161 and 224th St. E. A few of the Comprehensive Plan projects were removed or modified, as well. See Appendix A for Prioritized Transportation Project Recommendations and two maps titled “Transportation Project Recommendations” for the description and location of the recommendations. The two maps portray identical information, but one includes the whole plan area and the other is a close-up of the Rural Activity Center vicinity. The CPB prioritized each project into one of four priority categories of relative importance: Premier, High, Medium, and Low. This prioritization scheme was originally developed for the 1992 Transportation Plan and has been used in all
