PROJECT MITIGATION. Mitigation consists of things the developer must do, at the developer’s expense, to alleviate potential negative impacts of a project on the site and its surroundings. Permitting authorities typically include a set of conditions requiring a developer to provide mitigation of various kinds which may be required prior to or during construction of the project, or which may even take effect after the project is completed and operational. The development agreement may reference the foregoing type of mitigation but may also impose additional mitigation requirements.
PROJECT MITIGATION. Through the environmental review and determination process and further negotiation between the City and Sound Transit, impacts of the Project have been determined and mitigation measures have been identified in this Agreement that will mitigate the Project impacts. Such mitigation measures will be funded, designed, and constructed by Sound Transit. The mitigation measures identified through environmental review include: • A full traffic signal at 0xx Xxxxxx NW and W Xxxxxxx Avenue • An intersection modification to add an eastbound right-turn lane on X. Xxxxxxx Avenue for traffic traveling onto southbound N. Meridian. City and Sound Transit agrees to a full cost contribution of ($121,000,000) for the offsite drainage in lieu of providing a deep-pumped vault on the City ROW.

The City is proceeding with design of a replumbing project in order to provide direct drainage to the Puyallup River. ST will release 15% of the total funding when the DA is signed to reimburse for design expenses. The remainder funding will be released when the City issues Issue for Construction plans for the City storm conveyance project.
