A. The following applications for a building permit shall be exempt from the concurrency test. This exemption from the concurrency test does not exempt the applicant from other applicable development code requirements:
1. Any proposed development that creates no additional impacts on any transportation facility;
2. Any project that is a component of another proposed development and that was included in a prior application for a finding of concurrency;
3. Any renewal of a previously issued but unexpired permit;
4. Any application for a residential building permit if the dwelling unit is a part of a subdivision or short plat that submitted an application after 1990 and that has undergone the analysis mandated by the state subdivision act, Revised Code of Washington 58.17.060 or 58.17.110; and
B. The following applications for a building permit must be accompanied by a traffic impact analysis study prepared by the applicant:
1. Development that generates fifty (50) or more vehicle trips in the peak direction of the peak hour on the adjacent streets and intersections; or
2. Development that generates twenty five percent (25%) or more of peak hour traffic through a signalized intersection or the critical movement at an unsignalized intersection.
A traffic impact report prepared for preliminary development approval or to supplement an environmental checklist may be substituted for the traffic impact analysis. Such traffic impact report must conform with guidelines referred to in this section, must be prepared no earlier than two (2) years before submitted, and must include an analysis of a traffic generation level not less than ninety percent (90%) of that to be generated by the proposed development.
