July 5, 1988
ANNEXATION ZONING (CONSENT CALENDAR ITEM 3I )
REMOVED BY CITY ADMINISTRATOR MCFALL
LeBlanc Annexation. City Administrator McFall
announced that he had received a letter on July 1
on behalf of the owner which raised legal questions
regarding the proposed zoning ordinance . He
requested that this item be continued for two weeks
to allow time to review and research the issues
raised. WOODS SO MOVED. Houser seconded and the
motion carried.
REZONE APPEAL Van Doren's Landing II Rezone Appeal. This date
has been established as the hearing date to con-
sider an appeal of the Hearing Examiner ' s denial
of Van Doren' s Landing — rezone No. RZ-88-2 . The
request is to rezone 7 . 1 acres from M1 ( Industrial
Park) to M1 -C ( Industrial Park, Commercial Suffix ) .
The property is located on the south side of South
212th Street approximately 1200 feet west of West
Valley Highway.
Greg McCormick of the Planning Department noted
that the West Valley Study was completed in 1986
and the Council adopted an ordinance which would
allow for M1 -C zoning. This zoning would allow
for commercial nodes at major intersections of
West Valley Highway at 180th, 212th and 228th.
Two requests for rezones to the M1 -C designation
have been received. The Green River Square rezone
was approved, consisting of 34 acres on the south-
west corner of S. 212th and West Valley Highway
for such purposes as hotel, restaurant, and auto-
mobile service center. The public hearing was
declared open by Mayor Kelleher.
Ted Knapp of Union Pacific Realty Company referred
to his letter of appeal which has been distributed
to the Council and has been made a part of the
record. He stated that the West Valley Study had
suggested that retail uses be allowed and that the
zoning code had then been amended to allow retail
nodes on West Valley Highway at S. 180th, S. 212th,
and S. 228th. The property proposed for rezone by
Union Pacific Realty is 1200 feet west of the West
Valley Highway and is outside the "C-circle" shown
for the intersection. Knapp pointed out that the
"circles"were not intended to limit the boundaries
for the "C" zoning and that the Hearing Examiner
had confirmed this. Other developments have extended
4 -
July 5, 1988
REZONE APPEAL beyond the "circles" . He showed slides of the
area containing existing development and various
proposals which might be included in future develop-
ment. He confirmed for Mann that Union Pacific
was aware that the City ' s lagoon was to be retained
as a wildlife habitat and supported that concept.
Knapp noted that the appeal is based upon errors
in the interpretation of the Comprehensive Plan
and pointed out that support services such as a
hotel and restaurant were needed for the industrial
area. He pointed out that parts of the node at S .
180th are in Tukwila and Renton, that three quad-
rants of the S. 228th node are already developed
and that the largest "C" node is at the S. 212th
intersection. Knapp stated that the Green River
Square project extended beyond the "circle" and
that Union Pacific is asking for the same thing.
He clarified for Mann that a letter of intent had
been signed by a hotel.
Carol Stoner stated that the Green River Study
Group had been involved in preservation of wildlife
areas since 1970 and wanted it made clear that the
City' s lagoon would be so preserved.
Chris Crumbaugh of Corporate Property Investors ,
owners of Green River Square, spoke in favor of
the Hearing Examiner ' s recommendation to deny the
rezone, stating that the property was 1 /4 mile away
from the "C" node and would spread the commercial
zoning along S. 212th. He opined that approval of
the U P Realty proposal would require a change in
the Comprehensive Plan.
Knapp agreed with Stoner ' s concern about the lagoon
and noted further that the proposed development
would be 700 feet from the lagoon. In response to
Crumbaugh ' s statement, he noted that U P had no
intention of having strip commmercial zoning on
S. 212th.
JOHNSON MOVED to continue the hearing to the July 19
meeting to allow time to study the issues raised.
Woods seconded. Dowell commented that the issue
was whether the Hearing Examiner ' s recommendation
to deny was correct. The motion then carried.
5 -
July 5, 1988
FIRE DEPARTMENT North End Fire Station and Maintenance Facility.
Nine bids were opened on June 30 at 5: 30 p.m.
BITEMAN MOVED that the bid for the North Industrial
Fire Station and Maintenance Center to include
Alternates 1 , 2, 4 , 5, 7 , 8, 9, 10, 11 and 13 in
the amount of $1 , 644, 298.29 be awarded to Mar Jon
Construction, and further that the Mayor be author-
ized to sign the contractual agreement for construc-
tion services. Chief Angelo noted that the bids
were higher than expected, but that by strong manage-
ment of the financial resources, the project could
be brought in within budget and he therefore recom-
mended approval. Houser seconded and the motion carried.
PERSONNEL (CONSENT CALENDAR ITEM 3G)
Workers Compensation Claims Administration. AUTHOR-
IZATION for the Mayor to sign a Professional Ser-
vices Agreement with Scott Wetzel Services, Inc. ,
for Workers Compensation Claims Administration.
This is an annual review of our existing agreement.
FINANCE ( CONSENT CALENDAR ITEM 3D)
Interim Financing Authorization - Golf Course.
Golf Course AUTHORIZATION to increase the interim financing
loan from the City' s General Fund to the golf
course. Original anticipation with the establish-
ment of the loan amount to a maximum of $1 , 000, 000
was that the bonds would be sold early in 1988 .
Presently bonds are anticipated for sale in late
July with the City receiving the proceeds in August .
Interim financing is requested to be authorized to
the maximum of bond authorization, approximately
$5 , 250, 000 . The City is not anticipating using
this maximum authorization but it is established
so that reauthorization will not be needed. In this interim
period the City is actually benefited by being able to
finance interim construction at a lower short-term interest
rate as opposed to the higher long term bond rate.
(CONSENT CALENDAR ITEM 3B)
Approval of Bills. APPROVAL of payment of the
bills received through July 7 , 1988 after auditing

RESIDENTIAL (CONSENT CALENDAR ITEM 3C)
RECYCLING REMOVED BY COUNCILMEMBER HOUSER
Rabanco Residential Recycling Contract. AUTHORI-
ZATION has been requested for the Mayor to sign a
contract with Rabanco dba Kent Disposal for resi-
dential recycling services for a period not to
exceed 18 months from the date of execution of the
contract. Rabanco will provide residential recycl-
ing services to all voluntarily participating single
family households and multifamily households up to
fourplexes . Service will be provided at no cost
to the participant. Cost of the program will be
paid by the City of Kent through its Environmental
Mitigation Fund which is financed through utility
taxes levied on garbage collection service.
M Houser noted that information had been received
that the WUTC had issued a ruling regarding the
franchises for garbage hauling within the City of
Kent. She noted that there had not been time to
study the ruling or to see what kind of impact it
might have on the recycling contract. She MOVED
-- to authorize the Mayor to sign the contract, sub-
ject to review by the City Attorney and the City
Administrator. Biteman seconded. Upon questions ,
McFall clarified that the cost of subsidizing this
program would be more than $5, 000 per month, esti-
mated to be between $60 , 000 and $70 , 000 per year
depending upon how many volunteers participate .
There would not be a $1 . 00 credit on the monthly
utility bill , but curbside pick up of recyclables
will make it easy to participate. He pointed out
that those customers who recycle might be able to
take advantage of new WUTC rates for smaller garbage
containers. He clarified that there would be no
additional charge for the recycling container. A
copy of the WUTC ruling has not yet been received
by the City but the proposed judgement provides for
splitting the city between the two garbage com-
panies , however the contract under discussion is
for recycling only. It is not known yet if the
WUTC ruling will have any effect on the recycling
•_ contract, and therefore the authorization to sign
has been made subject to approval of the Attorney
and Administrator.
7 -
July 5, 1988
RESIDENTIAL Biteman noted that he had been active in various
RECYCLING recycling meetings and in view of the increase in -
solid waste, he could foresee that garbage would
be separated before going to the dump. Dowell
expressed concern about signing this contract with-
out knowing the particulars of the WUTC ruling.
McFall confirmed for White that the contract is
for 18 months and that the City logo would not be
used on the hauler ' s trucks. The hauler will apply
to the WUTC as soon as possible to include the cost
of a recycling program such as this in their rate
structure. At such time as that is approved as a
part of their rate structure, we would cease the
subsidy and the cost would be bourne by all of the
customers . It was further clarified that the City
had received proposals for recycling from other
haulers as well as from Rabanco. The motion then
carried with Dowell voting against it.
COUNCIL COMMITTEES Council President. White noted that he and several
Councilmembers had attended the AWC Convention
and that he had been elected to the Board of
Directors and would be serving the western half of
the State.
Planning Committee. Jim Hansen, Planning Manager,
stated that the Planning staff is comprising a work
program on multifamily housing densities and would
report on it at the next Council meeting.
Parks Committee. McFall noted that all are invited
to attend the opening of Briscoe Park on July 14
at 12: 00 noon.
EXECUTIVE SESSION McFall announced at 8: 25 p.m. that there would be
an executive session of approximately 30 minutes
to discuss pending litigation, a complaint against
an employee and collective bargaining.
ADJOURNMENT The Council reconvened at 8 : 50 p.m. and then adjourned.

TO: CITY COUNCIL MEMBERS: BERNE BITEMAN, JON JOHNSON,
JIM WHITE, PAUL MANN, JUDY WOODS, CHRISTI HOUSER,
STEVE DOWELL
FROM: NORM ANGELO, FIRE CHIEF
KEN WEATHERILL, BATTALION CHIEF
SUBJECT: SURPLUSING OBSOLETE LOW PRESSURE COMPRESSOR
... ----------------------------------------------------------------
INTRODUCTION/BACKGROUND: Approximately two (2) years ago, the
... Kent Fire Department purchased a new high pressure mobile air
compressor. This was done to meet our needs with the direction
of upgrading our breathing air systems to high pressure. In the
fall of 1986, the citizens of Kent passed a Bond Issue which
allowed us to complete the upgrade by the fall of 1987. These
actions made our old low pressure compressor obsolete. The
compressor was dismantled and placed in storage and has remained
there.
Fire Department Administration met with the Public Safety
Committee on 7-12-88 . A quorum was not present, but Councilman
Mann felt that this matter could be brought before full council.
It is physically impossible to change this low pressure
compressor to a high pressure unit.
RECOMMENDED ACTION: A Fire Department in eastern Washington is
interested in purchasing this low pressure compressor. It is
recommended that the Council approve the surplusing of this unit,
along with it's five (5) bottle low pressure cascade system. A
price of $3 , 000 should be asked for this package. This figure
was obtained from a vendor who is knowledgeable about this
compressor.
SIGNIFICANCE: This action will allow us to take the funds from
the sale of this unit and place it into the Bond Project Air
Systems account number 3352 331 52220 for purchase of self
contained breathing apparatus equipment. Also, it will open up
much needed space at Station 76's temporary quarters.
ALTERNATIVES/CONSEQUENCES: The only alternative is not to
approve the surplus of this unit. The above benefits would not
be gained.

Cliff Johnson indicated that during thei.r 'last phase of the closure
plan they will need to use the existing employee parking lot for
construction staging. They are requesting the temporary use of the
street to provide for employee parking during this time period
which he estimates to be between July 5 and October 31. A map
(copy attached) of the proposed use and number of required parking
stalls was distributed to the Committee. Wickstrom indicated the
Public Works Department has no problems with allowing this other
than we would need to develop conditions protecting the City from
any liability for this on-street parking . The Committee
unanimously approved the request subject to the conditions which e
will be developed by the Transportation Division of the Public
Works Department.
Green River Levee Improvement - S. 212th Street Bridge
Wickstrom indicated that the project fund is currently $200, 000 and
the low bid received on June 27 was $289, 431. 80. Wickstrom noted
that $150, 000 for levee work near Meeker Street was budgeted but
because of the need for a 404 permit no work will be done this
year. Wickstrom proposed transferring the $150, 000 to the Green
River Levee Improvement S. 212th Street Bridge fund so that we can
proceed with construction and meet the time limitations of our
Fisheries permit. The Meeker Street levee work would then be
budgeted next year. The Committee unanimously approved the
request.

1989 Public Works Department Proposed Budget Review
The Committee reviewed the organizational structure of the Public
Works Department and various needs of the department as projected

various items they would like to see addressed in future Public
Works budgets. Among those are the development of sidewalk
construction in the Capital Improvement Program, especially around
the elementary schools in Kent; developing an ordinance to collect
reimbursement for staff time utilized for accident control in
incidents caused by negligent driving, and the acquisition of
property for satellite Public Works maintenance facilities which o
will be needed as the City continues to grow.
In addition, Jon Johnson asked that Brent research the development
of an award which can be presented to those citizens in our -
community who contribute their own time and resources in City
beautification or maintenance.

were approved for payment.
RECYCLING CONTRACT
City Administrator McFall noted that the City had been interested in promoting
recycling for a number years and prior to the transfer of garbage pick-up to
an outside vendor had planned to go out to bid to obtain that service.
Following the transfer of the garbage pickup, Kent Disposal had implemented a
pilot residential curb side recycling program on the West Hill that obtained
approximately 60% participation. The City wanted to expand this program
City-wide and selected, following discussion with various vendors, Kent
Disposal 's proposal as the simplest and easiest proposal for the homeowner.
The City-wide program will be for residential customers up to four-plexes for
a once a month pick-up using a separate toter. The contract will be for an 18 -••
month period, during which time Kent Disposal will submit to the IIUTC for
inclusion of the program in their base rates. During the interim period, the
City will pay amounts between $5,000 and $6,000 a month from the City ' s
Environmental Mitigation Fund for the cost of the program. The program is
different from the pilot program in two areas: 1 ) Plastics are now a recyclable W
item (a market has been found for them) , and 2) the program is once a month as
opposed to twice a month.

Questions from the committee noted that the intent of the program was not to
take recycling away from charitable organizations, but to get recyclables from
those residences that had not been recycling before. The committee also
raised the question about whether toters themselves were recyclable and the
comment was that because of the type of plastic they were made from, the Kent
toters were actually recyclable. Kent Disposal will also be working on a
better balancing of the toters.
It was also noted that because individual residences may be able to do a
substantial amount of recycling, they may be able to reduce the size of their
garbage toter, therefore, reducing their garbage costs.
One other point of discussion was the fact that King County is working with
all cities in the county to establish a recycling program and Kent's
initiation of this project puts it way ahead of other cities.
Based on this input, the Committee unanimously accepted the proposal to
implement the recycling program. It was noted that the program would be
instituted within 45-60 days, and that decals pasted on the toters would
identify the recyclables allowed and schedule of pick-up days.
CONSIDERATION TO LEASE CITY-OWNED PROPERTY
City Administrator McFall noted that he has been approached by a developer who
wanted to lease a portion of the property along West Valley Highway at 64th
Avenue that had been donated to the City for the purpose of building a trail .
The property is a part of the Puget Power right-of-way. The City's initial
response to the proposal was "no" because it was important that the property
be used to be part of the City 's trail system. A counter-proposal by
_• developer offered that the developer build a trail and a 10-car parking lot
for the trail purposes , and in addition, provide the City with a $3,600 a year
leasehold payment, plus the amount of leasehold tax that is required to be
paid to the State on such a transaction. The committee was pleased with the
staff proposal .

REAUTHORIZATION OF THE SCOTT WET7EL CONTRACT
Assistant City Administrator Webby noted that the contract for Workers'
Compensation claims administration was up on June 30 and needed to be renewed
for another year. He noted that in the course of the City's Self-Insurance
Program for Workers ' Compensation, they had saved approximately $100,000 a
year from the State rates . The program has been in effect since July 1979.
The program calls for paying claims at an administration cost of $10,750 a
year, up 4% from the previous contract. This amount will process up to 60
claims with additional claims being processed at $120 at each, up from $100
each.
Councilman Biteman noted that the self-insurance program had been an excellent
program and the City had used great foresight in its initiation of these
programs. Based on this, the Committee unanimously approved the
reauthorization of the contract with Scott Wetzel .
MAY FINANCIAL REPORT
Finance Director McCarthy reviewed with the Committee the May Financial
Report. He made particular emphasis to the budget portions of the report
since the Committee was in the process of hearing operations critiques from
the individual departments in preparation for setting guidelines for the
development of the 1989 budget. As a part of the report, McCarthy noted that
the projected available fund balance for program improvements in 1989
continued to improve and it appears that approximately $900,000 is available
for those purposes at this time.
FINANCE DEPARTMENT OPERATIONAL REVIEW
The Finance Department reviewed their operations with the Committee.
Information presented will be summarized along with other Committee
presentations to be discussed at the council workshop of August 9. The
Committee as a whole felt pretty happy with the direction of the Finance
Department and saw no significant change in emphasis.
