Traffic: The City has adopted a Transportation Facility Charge (TFC) of $750.00 per PM peak trip. The Municipal Code provides a default table that the applicant can use to determine
new PM trips generated. If the proposed use is not listed in the table, the ITE Trip Generation Manual is used. The
ITE manual indicates a 107.34 new PM peak hour trips per 1,000 square feet of gross floor area.
To determine the projects impact and fee, use the following formula for the use proposed:
((New PM peak hour trips * floor area)/1,000) * $750 = TFC
Example: ((107.34 * 100)/1000) * $750 = $8,050.50
If the applicant feels the proposed use would not generate the default number of trips as designated in the TFC Ordinance an analysis prepared by a Washington State Licensed Engineer
can be submitted to the City for review and consideration.
