Development Questions 
Do you replace aging buildings when the net
present value is similar to maintaining existing
buildings? 
Is ground-leasing for private development an
appropriate means of redevelopment?

Sheds Compliance Briefing, Dec. 6, 2011

FT Net Sheds Building Code Compliance 
Buildings vary in age, size, construction, and layout 
Fishermen's storage needs have changed over time 
Port has been working with tenants since 2006 on storage/usage policies 
Port cited by City of Seattle Fire Department in 2009 for violation of fire & building codes 
Port has since worked closely with SFD and DPD to address City's concerns 
Staff implemented a Pilot Storage Program and other improvements 
Port hired a fire protection consultant to interpret codes and determine code compliant storage
options 
City concurred with four options and staff completed initial evaluation
Net shed buildings must be improved to achieve full code compliance 
Final project scope and schedule to be approved by the City

Sheds Compliance Briefing, Dec. 6, 2011

Recommended Code Compliance Option 
Option #3 recommended for the following reasons: 
Most closely matches fishermen's current use 
Allows greatest efficiency and flexibility in meeting customers' storage needs 
No required segregation and separation of stored commodities 
No challenging requirements for staff and customers to maintain and enforce longterm
code compliance 
No need for overall building master planning i.e. individual locker configurations are
independent of one another 
Least long-term code compliance liabilities and costs

Next Steps 
Refine Net Shed Code Compliance
implementation plan and costs 
Refine and revise development scenarios to
review with stakeholders 
Return to Commission for authorization of net
shed code compliance project and development
plan

Limitations of Translatable Documents

PDF files are created with text and images are placed at an exact position on a page of a fixed size.
Web pages are fluid in nature, and the exact positioning of PDF text creates presentation problems.
PDFs that are full page graphics, or scanned pages are generally unable to be made accessible, In these cases, viewing whatever plain text could be extracted is the only alternative.
