available funds. Wickstrom proposed funding the first six projects -04
shown on his summary from the available funds which he reviewed for
the Committee. He noted that most of the funds for the Green River
Bridge Replacement would probably not be required until 1990.
Funding for the remaining projects, Wickstrom recommended, be
addressed at the time those needs come before Council. Wickstrom
reviewed these for the Committee as well . Biteman moved that the
Director' s recommendations be approved. The Committee unanimously
concurred. This approval addresses items 5 (Green River Bridge
Replacement) , 9 (Canyon Drive Removal and Replacement of Pylons)
and 10 (SR 516/SR 99 Intersection Improvement) on the agenda.
Johnson asked if the pylons were going to be replaced on Canyon.
Wickstrom commented they will be replaced on a temporary basis with
another type of pylon. In designing the Canyon Drive Improvements,
the left turn pockets will be constructed in the locations
originally intended and the remaining road widened between the left
turn pockets so that jersey barriers could be installed in the
future as needed. The current design calls for striping these
T areas to restrict left turns. While the property owners have not
been advised as yet, the Transportation Engineer indicates hazards
of left turns in specific areas do exist. Wickstrom clarified for
Johnson that previously it had been thought a greater shy distance
was required for jersey barriers. Further study has been done and
it appears there is adequate room for them.
Riverview RV Park (Kantor RV Park) Agreement
Wickstrom explained the developer is, in accordance with the City's
Comprehensive Plan, oversizing and installing to extra depth a
sewer main to service an area larger than his immediate
development. The developer is requesting the City participate in
the costs involved in the oversizing and extra depth. The Director
estimated the cost to the City would be approximately $21, 925 and
it is his recommendation the City agree to participate and the
Mayor be authorized to sign the agreement. The Committee
unanimously approved the recommendation.
Alignment of Crow Road
Wickstrom explained this item is in conjunction with the Ruth
Rezone. The developer deeded right of way for alignment of Crow
Road to the City. To clear his title on his property, the
Developer has asked the City quit claim deed back to him any

OFFICE OF CITY ATIONWi
TO: Honorable Mayor
City Council Members
Sandra Driscoll, City Attorney
February 15, 1989
SUBJECT: 1989 Legislative Positions
There are many issues before the current Legislature that directly impact the
City of Kent. Set forth below is a list of a few of those issues and
recommendations for City policy positions. Position statements by Council would
provide guidance to the city staff in presenting the Council's position to the
Legislature on these topics.
I. Transportation
A. A variety of measures are now before the Legislature for
purposes of funding transportation improvements. These
include:
1. Anywhere from a three to nine cent increase in the
gasoline tax.
2. A local option gasoline tax.
3. Ccamuter tax.
4. Street utility tax for road maintenance purposes.
B. Recommendation:
Support a menu of options to be available to the local
jurisdiction in addition to an increase in the state gasoline
tax.
II. Solid Waste
A. A comprehensive bill redefining the State's approach to solid
waste management is currently before the Legislature. The
bill was drafted by a task force chaired by Rep. Art Sprenkle.
The primary focus of the bill is on waste reduction and
recycling through source separation. While there are many
comprehensive provisions to the bill, certain major items
would impact cites:
1. Cities would be required to maintain curbside
recycling programs according to very specific
state mandated standards.
2. The Washington Utilities and Transportation
Commission would eventually be given control of
rates for recycling programs.
3. The State would place sucharges on tipping fees
and utility taxes. The charge would be collected
by the State, then partially rebated to local
jurisdictions.
ReccmTendation•
Support and endorse programs that place an emphasis on waste
reduction and recycling and contain a disincentive for incineration
and landfilling. However, the ability of the cities to control such
Program within their own jurisdictions should not be abrogated nor
should specific minimal programs be mandated. Any monies from a
surcharge should be distributed to the jurisdictions from which the
monies originated.
III. Municipal Courts
A. Legislation is currently pending that affects all courts of
limited jurisdiction. The stated purpose of the bill is to
establish uniform practices and standards for districts and
municipal courts and to encourage the merger of municipal
courts into district courts. The bill provides, among other
things, that:
1. While cities will retain the option to maintain
a municipal court, they are required to provide
as much as two years notice that they are going
to establish their own municipal court.
2. The State will give the district courts a greater
proportion of the revenue from fines and
forfeitures than they are now receiving. However,
forfeitures than they are now receiving. However,
municipal courts will not receive that increased
funding.
3. An courts will be required to operate according
to certain uniform standards that will be
established by the Legislature. However, only
the district courts will be provided the increased
fining necessary to meet the standard.
B. Recommendation:
Retain local option to establish a municipal court with
a shorter notification timeline. Should uniform
standards be required of all courts, the municipal
courts should receive the same funding as the district
courts. In addition, any uniform standards must allow
for flexibility that permits taking into consideration
local differences.
IV. Drug and Alcohol and Traffic Safety Programs
A. The City of Kent has received federal funding to support the
Police Department's Drinking Driver Task Force Program for
approximately six years. Federal funding for that program
will cease on October 31, 1989.
B. Recommendation:
Support state funding of axmmunity programs to address
drug/alcohol and traffic safety issues at the local level.
Such funding should recognize the withdrawal of state funding
for such programs.
V. Workers' Compensation
A. A number of bills related to workers' compensation may come
before the Legislature during this session. They may
range in nature from simple clarification of access to
information to authorizing pooling of workers' compensation
for cities.
B. Recommendation:
Support legislation which is favorable to self-funded
employers and support pooling of workers' compensation
for cities.

Replacement) , 9 (Canyon Drive Removal and Replacement of Pylons)
and 10 (SR 516/SR 99 Intersection Improvement) on the agenda.
Johnson asked if the pylons were going to be replaced on Canyon.
Wickstrom commented they will be replaced on a temporary basis with
another type of pylon. In designing the Canyon Drive Improvements,
the left turn pockets will be constructed in the locations
originally intended and the remaining road widened between the left
turn pockets so that jersey barriers could be installed in the
future as needed. The current design calls for striping these
areas to restrict left turns. While the property owners have not
been advised as yet, the Transportation Engineer indicates hazards
of left turns in specific areas do exist. Wickstrom clarified for
Johnson that previously it had been thought a greater shy distance
was required for jersey barriers. Further study has been done and
it appears there is adequate room for them.
Riverview RV Park (Kantor RV Park) Agreement
Wickstrom explained the developer is, in accordance with the City's
Comprehensive Plan, oversizing and installing to extra depth a
sewer main to service an area larger than his immediate
development. The developer is requesting the City participate in
the costs involved in the oversizing and extra depth. The Director
estimated the cost to the City would be approximately $21, 925 and
it is his recommendation the City agree to participate and the
Mayor be authorized to sign the agreement. The Committee
unanimously approved the recommendation.
Alignment of Crow Road
Wickstrom explained this item is in conjunction with the Ruth
Rezone. The developer deeded right of way for alignment of Crow
Road to the City. To clear his title on his property, the
Developer has asked the City quit claim deed back to him any
unrequired right of way. The Committee unanimously concurred.

supportive of the Canyon Drive issues. )
Moss Construction/Steve Elkins Water Availability
Wickstrom reviewed previous actions on this item. It was last
referred to the Planning Department to review the comprehensive
Land Use Plan for the area in question. Their study did not
identify the need for any change in the Comprehensive Plan. The
Planning Committee supported these findings. The remaining options
available for Committee decision would be to either amend the
ordinance deleting the section requiring consistency with the
City's Land Use Plan or to recommend the ordinance remain as is and
that development be required to be consistent with the City's
proposed land use for the area. Elkins stated his request was for
an expansion for his industrial building and the water availability
would be used simply for the additional restroom facilities
required. Johnson asked if there was any way the City could
condition a water availability permit by restricting its use.
Williamson stated that Mr. Elkins has already signed a agreement
with the City wherein he agreed to use the water consistent with
the City's comprehensive land use plan. By virtue of his
industrial use, he is in conflict with the land use plan.
Williamson further stated without amending the existing ordinance
he did not see how we could condition any water availability and
he did not see how we could create an ordinance allowing certain
use exceptions without creating major difficulties in policing the
ordinance. Biteman asked what the impact would be of amending the
existing ordinance deleting the requirement for consistency with
the land use plan. Williamson and Wickstrom responded that
property would be able to develop in densities or uses other than
what the City would allow if the property were within the city
limits. Responding to Biteman's question, Williamson recommended
the ordinance remain as is and it be applied strictly. Biteman
moved not to amend the ordinance and apply it as written. The
Committee concurred.
Green River Bridge Replacement
Wickstrom distributed copies of an analysis of available funding
sources. He related he had reviewed all the public works projects
to determine the availability of uncommitted funds. These funds
are shown on the summary. In addition, he listed additional
funding needs for 1989 for projects that have emanated since
preparation of the 1989 budget. These needs exceed the amount of
Public Works Committee

available funds. Wickstrom proposed funding the first six projects
shown on his summary from the available funds which he reviewed for
the Committee. He noted that most of the funds for the Green River
Bridge Replacement would probably not be required until 1990.
Funding for the remaining projects, Wickstrom recommended, be
addressed at the time those needs come before Council. Wickstrom
reviewed these for the Committee as well. Biteman moved that the
Director's recommendations be approved. The Committee unanimously
concurred. This approval addresses items 5 (Green River Bridge
Replacement) , 9 (Canyon Drive Removal and Replacement of Pylons)

DATE: January 27, 1989 (no fps
TO: Mike Webby, Assistant City Administrator
FROM: Sue Viseth, Personnel Analyst
SUBJECT: PARKS ADMINISTRATION REORGANIZATION
-----------------------------------------------------------------
I have completed my analysis of the Parks Administration
reorganization as well as the reclassification requests for Sue
Floyd, Sharon Adams and May Lou Becker of the Cultural Arts
Division.
The Parks Administration reorganization impacts the following
individuals positions ; Pam Rumer, Ramona Valdez, and Alice Nieffer.
Interviews have been conducted with Ramona Valdez and Alice
Nieffer. Helen Wickstrom, Superintendent of Parks Administration
was also present during each of these interviews.
As a result of the Parks Administration reorganization Pam Rumer
is now performing the administrative duties previously performed
by Ramona Valdez . Pam acts as confidential secretary to the Parks
Director relieving the director of a variety of clerical,
technical, administrative department wide duties. I therefore
recommend that Pam Rumer's position be reclassified from an
Administrative Secretary I, range 20, to an Administrative
Assistant II, range 27 .
Ramona Valdez is now performing professional level accounting
duties for the Parks Department. These duties include development
and preparation of financial records, reports and documents related
to parks projects and department operations. A new job description
has been prepared by the Parks Department. I have reviewed and
analyzed the new description and feel that a new classification of
Project Accountant is warranted. Based on my analysis I am
recommending that Ramona ' s position be reclassified from
Administrative Assistant II, range 27, to Project Accountant, range
34 .
Alice Nieffer is currently classified as an Office Systems
Technician I, range 21. However due to the ongoing automation
implementation project for the Parks Department as well as the
added supervisory duties, Alice' s position has changed
significantly. She has significant responsibility for determining
the computer software and hardware needs of the Parks Department.
She is a member of the City's Automation Committee and has worked
closely with the Director of Information Services, as well as
vendors, to assist in the design and selection of a Parks
Department computer system. Alice also designs and delivers
computer training to Parks Department staff on an ongoing basis.
Furthermore, Alice has now been assigned responsibility for
training and supervising a Data Entry Clerk assigned to Parks
Administration. With these modifications in Alice' s position I am
recommending that her position be reclassified from Office Systems
Technician I, range 21, to Office Systems Technician II, range 24 .
Another reorganization took place this summer in the Cultural Arts
Division of the Parks Department with their relocation from Parks
Administration to the second floor of City Hall . As a result of
this relocation the Cultural Arts Administrative Secretary' s
position is now more clearly defined. Sue Floyd is the incumbent
in this position and reports directly to the Superintendent of
Cultural Arts. Sue now works independently from Parks
Administrative support staff. I completed my analysis of Sue's
position after interviewing both Sue and her supervisor. A copy
of the completed analysis is attached for your further review.
Based on my analysis I am recommending that Sue ' s position be
reclassified from Administrative Secretary I, range 20, to
Administrative Assistant I, range 22 .
Two reclassification requests were submitted from the Special
Populations Resource center.
The first for Mary Lou Becker, Office Technician II . There have
been considerable changes in the responsibilities assigned to Mary
Lou' s position over the last few months. Mary Lou is now
responsible for monitoring three budgets, training and supervising
a part time clerical employee and has been named Editor of the
quarterly newsletter, NETWORK NEWS. As a result of the increased
responsibility and complexity of Mary Lou' s duties I am
recommending that she be reclassified from a Office Tech. II, range
16, to an Office Tech III, range 20.
The second request was for Sharon Adams, Custodian I at the
Resource Center. Sharon' s duties as Custodian have been expanded
to include grounds maintenance for the Resource Center and the Kent
Memorial Park Building. Sharon is now also responsible for
training and supervising part time employees. She is required to
maintain records and files and monitor her own budget. Based on
my analysis of Sharon' s position I am recommending Sharon be
reclassified from Custodian I, range 15, to custodian II, range 20 .
In closing I have outlined in the attached a summary of my
recommendation for the six positions in question.

MEMORANDUM
DATE: January 12, 1989
TO: City Council Operations Committee
FROM: Mikd liWebby, Assistant City Administrator
SUBJECT: RECLASSIFICATIONS - POLICE DEPARTMENT
The purpose of this memorandum is to outline a reclassification request submitted
by the Police Department to Brent McFall as well as his recommendation. The
request concerns a salary and benefit adjustment requested for the positions of
Police Captain and Police Lieutenant. The primary premise of the request stems
from the significant improvement in salaries and benefits provided by the
contract with the Police Officers Union, 1987/1989. The department expressed
concern that the salaries and benefits improvement for union personnel out
stripped those salaries and benefit adjustments received by their management
staff, i .e. , Police Captains and Lieutenants.
Following his analysis of the request and meetings with Chief Frederiksen, Brent
concluded that an adjustment was warranted. Brent has recommended that a salary
adjustment Qf approximately 2 and 1 /2 percent (2.5%) be awarded to both Police
Captains and Lieutenants, i .e. , one salary range adjustment. If approved,
Police Captains would move from range 46 to range 47; Police Lieutenants from
range 43 to range 44. In addition to the salary adjustment, Brent has
recommended that a clothing allowance be provided both positions, not to exceed
a $400 clothing reimbursement per year (similar to union contract personnel ) for
both Police Captains and Lieutenants.
It is further recommended that a 2 and 1 /2 percent (2.5%) salary adjustment be
awarded in the Fire Department for the position of Assistant Fire Chief. If
approved, the salary range for Assistant Fire Chief would move from range 46 to
range 47. The purpose for this recommendation is to maintain the parity between
the positions of Police Captain and Assistant Fire Chief that have been
maintained over the past years. It was Brent' s intent to continue this parity
relationship even though it is not reflected in his memorandum to me dated
January 3, 1989. You will also note that Brent has recommended an effective
date of January 1 , 1989. Funds for these salary and benefit adjustments will be
provided by the 1989 Police and Fire Department budgets.
I have attached a copy of City Administrator McFall 's memorandum to me, dated
January 3, 1989, for your review. If you have any questions regarding this
request, please contact me at your earliest convenience.

FROM: Brent McFall , City Administrator
SUBJECT: ADJUSTMENTS TO COMPENSATION FOR OLICE CAPTAINS AND LIEUTENANTS
I have reviewed the request for adjustments to salary levels for police
captains and lieutenants and have determined that both positions should be
adjusted upwards by one salary range (2-1/2 percent) . Further, I have
determined that it would be appropriate to provide a clothing allowance to
police captains and lieutenants in an amount equivalent to that established by
contract for represented commissioned police officers.
These adjustments should be effective January 1 , 1989. As you know, you will
need to take this matter before the Council Operations Committee and full
Council for approval .
If you should need any clarification or further information, please do not
hesitate to contact me.

2 . SUMMARY STATEMENT: Authorize the Fire Department to proceed

replacement of ladders that fail.
There have been recent changes in the NFPA Standards that the
Fire Department uses to test ground ladders. The testing for
older ladders is less stringent than that for the newly
constructed ladders. We will endeavor to cover the expense out
of this year's budget by using salary funds of a firefighter who
resigned and delay in hiring a replacement.

FROM: NORM ANGELO, FIRE CIIIEF„� (,)o
SUBJECT: "EMERGENCY GROUND LADDERS" TESTING
------------------------------------------------------------
Recent changes in NFPA Standards that we have utilized to test
our ground ladders has required additional training of our
personnel . Upon completion of this training we began testing of
our older ladders in accordance with the standard. The test for
older ladders is less stringent than that for newly constructed
ladders.
We began with a 35 foot extension ladder which popped rivets and
failed the test. It became obvious that several of our older
ladders may have difficulty in passing the test. At the same
time replacement ladders were not identified in the 1989 budget
because we had not yet completed the training and evaluation of
the program.
Given the ladder failure, the nature of emergency work and the
significant potential liability, I am requesting authorization to
proceed with testing and to replace the ladders that fail . We
have not found an agency that will repair and certify the older
ladders. It is difficult to say how many ladders will fail , but
we have attached a likely scenario based on the experience of
some others who have done recent testing. An estimate prior to
testing is $11, 242 . We could exceed or be lower than that
estimate. We will endeavor to cover the expense out of this
years budget, however, at this time I can not identify an area
that may cover these costs . It is possible we may not be able to
cover costs in budget. Even if we were sure to go beyond budget,
I would still recommend that we proceed with testing and
replacement as necessary.
With your approval we will proceed with testing, notify Public
Safety Committee and others you designate. Further, since this
test must be done annually we will place an item request to cover
this area in the future budgets .
If you have further questions please let me know.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
JANUARY 17 , 1989
TO: ASSISTANT CHIEF ALDRIDGE
FROM: BATTALION CIIIEF ROBERTSON
SUBJECT: LADDER TESTING FOR THE KENT FIRE DEPARTMENT
------------------------------------
INTRODUCTION/BACKGROUND
The Kent Fire Department has followed NFPA 1932-1984 , which
states that all ground ladders will be tested according to these
new specifications:
5. 1.7 A) At least annually
B) When suspect of being unsafe
C) When subject to overloading
D) When subject to impact loading
E) Being exposed to heat
F) When deficiencies have been repaired
In order for "in-house" testing of all ground ladders used by the _..
Kent Fire Department, three (3) personnel from each shift (6
total) have been trained and certified to perform the testing in
accordance with the NFPA 1932-1984 .
Testing cannot be completed until a budget has been established
to repair or replace the ladders and/or hardware that are
projected not to pass the test. We have had 1 35 foot ladder
fail tests already.
RECOMMENDED ACTION
It is the recommendation that the Department seek additional
funds so that all ground ladders of the Kent Fire Department can
be tested, repaired and/or replaced as needed in accordance with
NFPA 1932-1984 .
SIGNIFICANCE
Without this budget the Kent Fire Department will not be able to
establish a baseline of integrity and safeness to the ladders
already in use at this time. Also, by not conducting the testing
while knowing that ladders have not passed the tests, the City
may be accepting significant liability.
BUDGET/ECONOMIC IMPACT
At this time we can only estimate from the experience of others.
According to Underwriters Laboratories, the expected failure rate
of ladders subject to testing, which are presently used in the
fire service is as follows:
Of 2 , 000 ladders, given random lengths and manufactures, 15%
failed.
Of ladders 35 feet or longer, 45% failed.
Roof ladder hooks of dimensions less than 3/4 inches will
fail 100%.
From the above information the Kent Fire Department anticipates
the following ladders will likely fail the testing procedures:
1 - 50 foot Bangor
3 - 35 foot Extensions
1 - 14 fo,_ L Roofer
6 - Pair of roof ladder hooks
The replacement costs of this equipment is attached. The amount
needed is only an estimate and could be more or less dependant
upon the actual outcome of our testing.
ALTERNATIVES/CONSEOUENCES
Alternatives to the testing procedures are:
1. Subject the City to a potential significant liability.

OFFICE OF THE CITY ATTORNEY
DATE: February 16, 1989
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM: Legal Department
SUBJECT: PROPOSED DANCE CLUB ORDINANCE
The City of Kent Fire and Police Departments have requested adoption of an
ordinance regulating the operation of dance halls. Currently, only one such
dance club exists within Kent city limits, but the popularity of such clubs is
growing. The proposed ordinance is characterized as "preventive action" . It
is designed specifically to institute sufficient health and safety regulations
to prevent problems which have been prevalent in the majority of dance club
operations, such as illegal and/or underage drug and alcohol use; fights;
disturbances; fire code violations, and attendant threats to life and
property; and the overcrowding of facilities.
The proposed ordinance establishes a licensing procedure and fee schedule.
Applications of prospective owners and operators are reviewed by the Police
Chief to ensure that the facility meets applicable zoning, building, and fire
codes, and that no owner or operator has a past criminal history. The
ordinance requires adequate security personnel to attend dances, and provides
for litter control measures. Assistance of the management is required by the
ordinance to control loitering and to prevent attendance by those under the
influence of alcohol or drugs. A readmission fee is mandated.
An appeal procedure is established in the event of initial license or renewal
denial . Operating a public dance in violation of the ordinance is deemed a
misdemeanor.
The ordinance is similar to ordinances currently in effect in Renton and
Redmond, and in the drafting stages in Spokane.

A. Prior to issuance of any public dance license a cash
security deposit in the amount of $200 shall be submitted to the
Finance Director as security for the cleanup of all litter
resulting from any public dance authorized by the license. In the
event the licensee fails to clean up all litter on any public or
private property which results from any public dance conducted by
the licensee within twenty-four hours of the end of the dance, the
City may cause such litter to be cleaned up and pay the costs of
the clean up out of the security funds. Litter resulting from the
public dance shall be limited to that occurring within a one block
radius of the location of the dance unless clearly identified with
the dance. In the event the cost of the clean up exceeds the
amount of funds on deposit, the licensee shall pay such excess
costs.
B. In the event funds are expended out of a security
deposit required by this Section, the licensee shall, within five
days of receipt of written notice of such expenditure, submit the
amount necessary to replenish the security fund to the amount of
the full security deposit. No renewal license shall be issued
unless the full amount of the security deposit for litter clean up
is on deposit with the City at the time of the application for
renewal. If funds sufficient to replenish the fund are not
received within 5 days of receipt of written notice then the dance
hall license shall be suspended until sufficient funds are
received. Within the 5 days of receipt of notice of deficiency,
the dance hall licensee may inform the Finance Director in writing
of circumstances justifying nonpayment of additional funds which
information shall be considered by the Finance Director and the
licensee shall not be suspended if the nonpayment is justified.
C. If the funds for security for cleanup are fully
expended within any one week, or if the funds for cleanup fall
below $100.00 twice in any quarter or five times in any year, then
the Finance Director shall require an additional cash deposit of
not less than $200.00 and not more than the greatest one week
expenditure for cleanup during the prior year.

personnel to control the waiting area one hour before opening and
throughout the hours of operation. The security personnel shall
use their best efforts to prevent persons seeking admission but

right-of-way and sidewalks, and the security personnel shall
require such persons to leave the property under control of the
dance hall.

Subject: 1989 DEBT ISSUANCE
Creator: Tony MCCARTHY / KENT70/FN Dated: 01/20/89 at 1349 .
TO: MAYOR KELLEHER AND COUNCILMEMBERS
FROM: TONY MCCARTHY, FINANCE DIRECTOR
PRIOR COUNCIL RESOLUTIONS HAVE AUTHORIZED THE ISSUANCE OF COUNCILMANIC
BONDS IN 1989 FOR COMPLETION OF THE PUBLIC SAFETY TRAINING CENTER AND
TO PROVIDE A PORTION OF CITY FUNDING FOR THE 272/277 CORRIDOR. THE ENTIRE
AMOUNT OF THIS DEBT ($3 , 907 , 000) CAN NOT BE ISSUED UNTIL MID SUMMER BECAUSE OUR
REMAINING BONDING CAPACITY WON 'T BE LARGE ENOUGH UNTIL WE MAKE A JULY 1 DEBT
PAYMENT. SEE THE ATTACHED ANALYSIS FOR FUTURE ISSUES AND CAPACITY ANALYSIS .
FIRE CHIEF ANGELO HAS REQUESTED HIS FUNDS IN FEBRUARY IF POSSIBLE. THE OPTIONS
WITH RESPECT TO THE STREET ISSUE ARE AS FOLLOWS :
1) ISSUE A LESSER AMOUNT THAN PLANNED IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE PUBLIC
SAFETY ISSUE
2) DEFER THE STREET ISSUE UNTIL LATE SUMMER
3) DEFER THE STREET ISSUE UNTIL JANUARY 1990 AND ISSUE IN COMBINATION WITH
AN ADDITIONAL COUNCILMANIC STREET ISSUE PLANNED FOR THAT YEAR
OUR FINANCIAL ADVISORS ARE SAYING TO DO ONLY ONE ISSUE IN 1989 . THE 272/277
CORRIDOR IS THE CITY ' S NUMBER PRIORITY PROJECT. DEFERRING THE BOND ISSUE UNTIL
A LATER DATE LEAVES OPEN THE POSSIBILITY OF USING THE FUNDS FOR OTHER PURPOSES .
IN ADDITION INTEREST RATES ARE VERY FAVORABLE AT THIS TIME, THEREFORE OPTION (l)
IS THE PERFERRED CHOICE.

MEMO TO: Mayor Dan Kelleher and City Council Members
FROM: Fred N. Satterstrom, Acting Planning Director
SUBJECT: HEARING EXAMINER'S RECOMMENDATION ON THE CANTERBURY
PRELIMINARY SUBDIVISION NO. SU-88-5
On December 21, 1988, the Hearing Examiner held a public hearing
to consider the Canterbury preliminary subdivision. This is a
4.41-acre, 20-lot, single-family residential subdivision located
on the northeast corner of proposed 100th Avenue SE and SE 248th
Street.
The Hearing Examiner recommends approval of this preliminary
subdivision with the following conditions:

1. Increase lot widths for proposed lots 4, 51 71 14, and
17 so that these lots meet the recommended minimum width
of 30 feet.
2 . Reconfigure or eliminate proposed lot 17 to reduce street
frontages to a maximum of two for any lot.
3 . The final plat linen shall bear a notation stating that
all lots must conform to the solar access setback
regulations of the Zoning Code.
4. The final plat linen shall bear a notation stating that
those properties fronting on two more-or-less parallel
streets (currently proposed lots 3 , 4, 51 14 , 15, 16, 17 ,
and 18) must have only one street access.
Obtain City approval of detailed enctineering drawings for the
following improvements and either construct and/or bond for
the same:
5. Storm System. Provide on-site storm water detention in
accordance with City Drainage Code and provide public
storm drainage facilities within all public roadways and
roadway improvements required as a condition of this
subdivision.
6. Sanitary Sewer. Provide city gravity sanitary sewer
system to service all lots. Extend sanitary sewers from
SE 248th Street along 100th Avenue SE to the north
property line of the plat.
7 . Water. Extend the City water main on SE 248th Street to
the north property line of this plat. The size thereof
MAYOR KELLEHER AND CITY COUNCIL MEMBERS

shall be in accordance with that specified in the City
Water Comprehensive Plan. Extend the City water main
internal into the plat to provide domestic water service
and fire flow capabilities to all lots. A minimum six
inch main is required.
8. Internal Streets. Improve internal roadway system to
residential access road standards (i.e. , curb and gutter,
minimum 5 feet sidewalks, street lighting, asphalt
pavement (minimum roadway width 28 feet curb to curb) ,
underground utilities, drainage, street signs, and
related appurtenances) . Dedicate adequate right-of-way
to accommodate 25 foot radius curb returns at
intersections and 45 foot curb returns for cul-de-sacs,
50 feet right-of-way minimum in tangent sections.
9. 100th Avenue SE. Dedicate sufficient right-of-way to
construct improvements required under SEPA. A 35 foot
curb return radius is required at the intersection with
SE 248th Street.
10. SE 248th Street. Improve to collector street standards.
Half street pavement width shall be 18 feet as measured from the centerline of the right-of-way. The westbound
land shall be widened and overlain with asphalt pavement
such that its minimum width shall be 12 feet. Included
in the half street improvements shall be curb and gutter,
cement concrete sidewalk, street lighting,
undergrounding, storm drainage and other related
improvements.

INTRODUCTION
After due consideration of the evidence presented by the applicant, all
evidence elicited during the public hearing, and as a result of the
personal inspection of the subject property and surrounding area by the
Hearing Examiner, the following findings of fact and conclusions shall
constitute the decision of the Hearing Examiner on this application.
1
Findings and Recommendation
Canterbury Subdivision
#SU-88-5
FINDINGS OF FACT
1. The applicant, Rupert Engineering, Inc. , requested a preliminary
subdivision approval for a single-family residential development
totalling 20 lots.
2 . The subject property, which is 4 .41 acres in size, is located
on the northeast corner of proposed 100 Avenue SE and SE 248th
Street.
3 . The applicant proposes as previously indicated, to develop 20
single-family residential lots. The average lot size is 7, 535
square feet with the largest lot being 6, 146 square feet and the
smallest lot being 7, 209 square feet. The evidence establishes
that the resulting density will be approximately 4 . 5 units per
acre on this R1-7 . 2 , Single Family Residential, zoned site.
4 . Surrounding zoning and land uses in the vicinity include a
similar density single-family residential district to the north
while property to the east is zoned R1-7.2 , Single Family
Residential, as well. Further to the east, beyond
104th Avenue SE, there is an 0, Professional and Office,
district. To the south and southwest, across SE 248th Street,
zoning is MRM, Medium Density Multifamily Residential. The area
located to the west, across proposed 100th Avenue SE is zoned
R1-9 . 6, Single Family Residential.
5 . All of the lots meet or exceed minimum lot size although some
of the lots (lots 4 , 51 7 , 14 and 17) have narrow lot widths.
6. The subject site is designated on the Comprehensive Plan Map and
the East Hill Plan Map for multiple family residential uses.
However, clearly the goals, objectives and policies outlined in
both Plans strongly support single-family residential uses as
proposed on the site.
7 . The site is currently undeveloped with the exception of a
single-family rental residence in the vicinity of proposed lots
15 and 16. This residence will be demolished upon development
of the plat.
8 . The topography of the site is fairly hilly with a gradual slope
to the west of about eight percent. In addition, a view of the
site along with a view of the video tape and the evidence
presented at the time of the hearing establishes that the parcel
is covered with a number of large trees of both the evergreen
2
Findings and Recommendation
Canterbury Subdivision
#SU-88-5
and deciduous variety. There is a considerable amount of
forested undergrowth which exists along with walking paths
through the site which apparently are utilized area residents
for recreational purposes.
9 . The site has access to SE 248th Street by way of proposed
100th Avenue SE. This street (SE 248th Street) is classified
as a collector arterial with a public right-of-way width of
60 feet and actual width of paving of 24-feet. The street has
a narrow shoulder and no sidewalks. Traffic mitigation measures
are required as part of the SEPA conditions. Within the
subdivision there will be two cul-de-sacs to serve the proposed
lots. Full street improvements will be provided and the
rights of way will be deeded to the City of Kent.
10. There is an existing eight-inch water main to serve the subject
site and there is an existing eight-inch sanitary sewer main
stub to SE 248th Street about 800 feet west of the subject
property. The sewer main is available to serve the subject
property and all lots will be connected to the City sanitary
sewer system. At the time of the public hearing some residents
in the vicinity expressed concern with respect to whether they
would be required to involuntarily connect to the sewer system
as a result of the proposed development. The evidence
establishes that although the sewer system will be available to
anyone who desires to connect to it, such connection will not
be connected unless an adjoining resident's septic tank no
longer functioned.
11. In addition, residents in the vicinity expressed some concern
with respect to storm drainage and the evidence establishes that
on- and off-site plans of storm drainage improvements will be
required as part of final plat approval.
12 . The staff report, with its recommendation of conditional
approval, is incorporated herein by reference as though set
forth in full.
CONCLUSIONS
1. The preliminary subdivision, as proposed, meets the goals and
policies of the Comprehensive and East Hill Plan texts.
2 . Land use in the vicinity is primarily single-family residential
with some multifamily residential development to the southwest.
3
Findings and Recommendation
Canterbury Subdivision
#SU-88-5
3 . The lots either meet or exceed minimum lot size although some
lots need to have increased lots width and need to be
reconfigured to reduce street frontage.
4 . Utilities are available to serve the subject property.
RECOMMENDATION
For each of the above reasons, the recommendation of the Hearing
Examiner is CONDITIONAL APPROVAL, subject to the following conditions:
A. Prior to Recordation of Plat:
1. Increase lot widths for proposed lots 4, 5, 7 , 14 , and 17
so that these lots meet the recommended minimum width of

frontages to a maximum of two for any lot.
3 . The final plat linen shall bear a notation stating that all
lots must conform to the solar access setback regulations
of the Zoning Code.
4 . The final plat linen shall bear a notation stating that
those properties fronting on two more or less parallel
streets (currently proposed lots 3 , 41 5, 14, 15, 16, 17 ,
and 18) must have only one street access.
Obtain City approval of detailed engineering drawings for the
following improvements and either construct and/or bond for the
same•
5. Storm System. Provide on-site storm water detention in
accordance with City Drainage Code and provide public storm
drainage facilities within all public roadways and roadway
improvements required as a condition of this subdivision.
6. Sanitary Sewer. Provide city gravity sanitary sewer system
to service all lots. Extend sanitary sewers from SE 248th
Street along 100th Avenue SE to the north property line of
the plat.
7 . Water. Extend the City water main on SE 248th Street to
the north property line of this plat. The size thereof
shall be in accordance with that specified in the City
4
Findings and Recommendation
Canterbury Subdivision
#SU-88-5
Water Comprehensive Plan. Extend the City water main
internal into the plat to provide domestic water service
and fire flow capabilities to all lots. A minimum six inch
main is required.
8 . Internal Streets. Improve internal roadway system to
residential access road standards (i.e. , curb and gutter,
minimum 5 feet sidewalks, street lighting, asphalt pavement
(minimum roadway width 28 feet curb to curb) , underground
utilities, drainage, street signs, and related
appurtenances) . Dedicate adequate right-of-way to
accommodate 25 foot radius curb returns at intersections
and 45 foot curb returns for cul-de-sacs, 50 feet right-
of-way minimum in tangent sections.
9 . 100th Avenue SE. Dedicate sufficient right-of-way to
construct improvements required under SEPA. A 35 foot curb
return radius is required at the intersection with SE 248th
Street.
10. Southeast 248th Street. Improve to collector street
standards. Half street pavement width shall be 18 feet as
measured from the centerline of the right-of-way. The
westbound land shall be widened and overlain with asphalt
pavement such that its minimum width shall be 12 feet.

The public hearing of the Kent Hearing Examiner was called to order
by the presiding officer, Diane L. VanDerbeek, Hearing Examiner, on
Wednesday, December 21, 1988 at 3:00 p.m. in the Kent City Hall,
Council Chambers.
Ms. VanDerbeek requested all those intending to speak at the hearing
and those wishing to receive information concerning the hearing, to

the door. Ms. VanDerbeek briefly described the sequence and
procedure of the hearing. All those who intended to speak were
sworn in.
HARRIS
Rezone
#RZ-88-7
The first item on the agenda was a public hearing to consider the
request by John R. Ewing & Associates, 1314 S. Central #200, Kent,
WA 98032 , for a rezone from MHP, Mobile Home Park, to GC, General
Commercial. The site is located on the west side of N. Washington
Avenue (SR 181) , approximately 616 feet south of W. James Street.
(1-82) Carol Proud, Kent Planning Department, presented the staff
report. The applicant did not submit a site-specific rezone
request; however, he stated in the environmental checklist that a
mini-warehouse facility may be constructed on the site. Some
transparencies were shown depicting 1) the location of the site and
2) existing zoning and uses surrounding the site. Ms. Proud
commented that a ten foot landscaping strip would be required
between this property and the mobile home park to the north. A
video of the site was shown.
A brief history of the site was presented. Ms. Proud discussed the
criteria that must be considered when reviewing a rezone
application. The staff recommendation is approval with conditions.
A correction to condition A was made; it should read: " . . . .deed to
the City for street purposes the easterly 17 feet of the property
such that the westerly half street right-of-way width for West
Valley Highway (Washington Avenue) is fifty (50) feet" .
Ms. VanDerbeek asked if the applicant would like to comment.
(1-390) Larry Onorati, J. R. Ewing & Associates, 1314 S. Central
#200, Kent, WA 98031, stated the correct size of the site is

65 feet x 483 .9 feet or 0.71 acres, not the 2 .99 acres that was
stated in the staff report. The applicant concurred with the
conditions recommended by staff.
There was no public testimony.
The hearing closed at 3 : 20 p.m.
CANTERBURY SUBDIVISION
Preliminary Plat
#SU-88-5
The second item on the agenda was a public hearing to consider the
request by Rupert Engineering, Inc. , 1501 West Valley Highway N. ,
#101, Auburn, WA 98002 , for preliminary subdivision approval for
20 single-family residential lots. The subject property is
4 . 41 acres in size and is currently zoned R1-7 .2 , Single-Family
Residential (minimum lot size allowed is 7,200 square feet) .
(1-451) Lauri Anderson, Kent Planning Department, presented the
staff report. Ms. Anderson showed some view foils depicting 1) the
location of the site and 2) surrounding zoning. A brief history of
the area was given. A video of the site was shown.
Ms. Anderson presented a view foild which showed a schematic drawing
of the proposed plat. Lots 4 , 51 71 14, and 17 do not meet the
minimum width requirement. Further, the solar setback regulations
would need to be met. Lots 14 and 17 will have some difficulty in
meeting the solar setback requirements. In addition, with the
configuration on Lot 17, a house could be located close to the
intersection. Therefore, the Planning Department is requesting that
the applicant either redesign Lot 17 or incorporate it into the
adjacent lot and reduce the three street frontages on the internal
cul-de-sac to a maximum of two.
The goals, objectives and policies were discussed of the City-wide
Comprehensive Plan. Planning staff is requesting that a
comprehensive tree plan prior to any development on the site. The
staff is recommending approval with conditions.
Ms. VanDerbeek asked if the applicant would like to comment.

Hearing Examiner Minutes
December 21, 1988
(1-820) Nigel Southey, representing applicant, stated the applicant
wishes to retain a substantial amount of the woodlands and natural
beauty of the site. Mr. Southey commented that one of the concerns
was the designated 30 feet that should have been obtained from the
property owner to the west of 100th Avenue SE at SE 248th Street;
thus, the applicant was required to donate an extra 25 feet of
property to the City. This donation created part of the problem
with Lot 17 . Further discussion with the applicant's engineers
indicated the lot lines on Lot 17 could be adjusted and still meet
the minimum requirements of the Code. There are no objections to
the remainder of the City' s conditions.
(1-923) Andy Rykles, Rupert Engineering, 1501 West Valley Highway
N. , Auburn, commented the subdivision map would have been submitted
showing the required 30 feet he had known about it. Further, it
wasn't realized there would be a problem with the triple frontage
in the cul-de-sac area of Lot 17. Mr. Rykles commented the problem
with Lot 17 was caused by the requirement of an additional 25 feet
from the applicant rather than from the property to the west. Mr.
Rykles requested approval of the preliminary plat with the triple
frontage.
(1-1047) Gary Gill, Public Works Department, stated the single-
family residence would not allow the street to be developed in a
straight alignment. There should not be a problem with sight
distance with the street.
Ms. VanDerbeek asked if there were any public comment.
(1-1150) Dale Hartman, 9849 S. 245th Place, Kent, WA 98031,
commented there were problems with lot lines in the area. He felt
the City should survey the property in the area. Mr. Hartman
commented there was a drainage problem in the area and a drainage
plan should be required and implemented. Also, how far is 100th
going to be developed?
(1-1320) Gene Gillespie, 10116 SE 248th, Kent, WA 98031, resides
to the west of the site. He wanted to know how many lots there are
and what the price range of the homes will be? Further, will storm
drainage be required?
(1-1370) Anthony Zupen, 9928 S. 248th, Kent, WA 98031, asked if
100th will be developed all the way through. Also, is 248th going
to be widened? Mr. Zupen asked if sewers will be constructed in the
area.

December 21, 1988
There was no further public testimony.
(1-1430) Mr. Gill stated that in each project, the developer is
required to have the property surveyed; the survey is then submitted
to the Public Works Department for review and approval. A storm
drainage plan is required to be submitted and approved when the
property is developed. Another requirement is the full half-street
improvement of 100th Avenue SE. The street, 100th Avenue SE, would
not extend past the property frontage. The north half of
248th Street is also to be improved. Further, the developer will
be required to provide both. sanitary sewer and water improvements
to service the plat. When utility improvements are done at the
expense of a private developer, the developer may require a
latecomer' s agreement from the City. This would allow a developer
to be reimbursed for part of his cost in extending the facilities
when other property owners connect to the utility.
(1-1765) Ms. Anderson commented there were 20-lots proposed;
however, there could be fewer depending on a condition concerning
Lot 17 were imposed and then this would be a 19-lot plat. The
requirement for the 30-foot lot widths is along the cul-de-sac
frontage. The Code requires a 70-foot lot frontage overall; one can
drop to 56 feet if the average lot width reaches the 70-foot
requirements. However, on a turnaround on a cul-de-sac there is not
a stated minimum lot width; it has been City policy to require a 30-
foot width.
(1-1903) Mr. Southey commented the price range for the homes is
between $120, 000 and $150, 000.
(1-1945) Jeannie Hartman, 9849 S. 245th Place, Kent, WA 98031, did
not understand the intention of the improvements to 100th Place SE.
She wanted to know why the improvements were shown 30 feet into
their property. In addition, would this development be surrounded.
by a fence? Ms. Hartman stated there is a blind spot on the road
that needs to be considered.
(1-2025) Mr. Gill stated the 30 feet on the north shown for 100th
Avenue SE is incorrect. There is not an additional 30 feet; there
is a total of 60 feet--30 feet on each side. Mr. Gill commented
there is a blind dip in the road to the west of the intersection.
This would be carefully considered when reviewing the drawings in
order to alleviate the problem.
Ms. VanDerbeek asked if the applicant intends to fence the project.

Rezone
#RZ-88-4
The last item on the agenda was a continued public hearing to
consider the conditions recommended for the application submitted
by Barghausen Engineers, Inc. , 18215 72nd Avenue S. , Kent, WA
98032 , for a rezone from MRM, Medium Density Multifamily
Residential, and O, Professional and Office, to CC, Community
Commercial. The subject property is located on the southwest corner
of 104th Avenue SE and SE 260th Street, bounded by SE 264th Street
to the south and 100th Place SE (Crow Road) on the east.
The hearing was to consider the conditions recommended by City staff
only.
(1-2259) Kathy McClung, Planning Department, stated the conditions
recommended by the City staff were listed in the staff report
written for the September 21, 1988 hearing, from the public
testimony or the Hearing Examiner suggestion. Further, during the
testimony one of the applicant' s representatives expressed a
willingness to place some type of public art on the building. .
(1-2355) Jay Derr, representing applicant, stated there were no
problems with the conditions as listed. Mr. Derr made some
clarifications on conditions 2 , 6 and 10.
A member of the public had some inquiries concerning an access shown
on the site plan. Upon further discussion, it was discovered that
the property in question had not been purchased by the applicant
yet. It was decided that until the purchase decision was made, the
driveway question could not be answered. The City would be
reviewing final construction plans only.

KENT PLANNING DEPARTMENT
STAFF REPORT
FOR HEARING EXAMINER MEETING OF DECEMBER 21, 1988
FILE NO: CANTERBURY SUBDIVISION #SU-88-5
APPLICANT: Rupert Engineering, Inc.
REQUEST: A request for preliminary subdivision approval
for 20 single-family residential lots.
STAFF
REPRESENTATIVE: Lauri Anderson
STAFF
RECOMMENDATION: APPROVAL WITH CONDITIONS
I. GENERAL INFORMATION
A. Description of the Proposal
The proposal is for the subdivision of a 4 .41 acre parcel
into 20 single-family lots. The average lot size is 7, 535
square feet with the largest lot being 8, 146 square feet
and the smallest lot being 7,209 square feet The resulting
subdivision will provide for 20 detached single family
homes at a density of approximately 4 .5 units per acre.
B. Location
The subject property is located on the northeast corner of
proposed 100th Avenue SE and SE 248th Street (Lot 32 , R.O.
Smith's Orchard Tracts Addition) .
C. Size of Property
The subject property is 4 .41 acres in size.
D. Zoning
The proposed subdivision site is within the R1-7 .2 , Single
Family Residential, zoning district (minimum lot size of
7 , 200 square feet) . Surrounding property to the north is
also zoned R1-7 .2 . The property to the east is zoned
R1-7. 2 , with an O, Professional and Office, district beyond
along 104th Avenue SE. To the south and southwest across
SE 248th Street, zoning is MRM, Medium Density Multifamily
Residential. The area located to the west, across proposed
1
Staff Report
Canterbury Subdivision
#SU-88-5
100th Avenue SE, is zoned R1-9.6, Single Family Residential
(9 , 600 square feet minimum lot size) .
All lots meet or exceed the minimum lot size as specified
in the development standards for the R1-7 .2 zoning
district. All lots appear to have an adequate building
area to meet the required yard setbacks for future
development.
Lots 4, 51 71 14 and 17 have narrow lot widths. The
minimum required lot width is 70 feet. The street-side lot
line may have a width of 80 percent of this 70 feet (or
56 feet) in a residential zone, while lots having frontage
along the turnaround circle of a cul-de-sac may provide
even less width than the required 80 percent. The minimum
preferred lot width is 30 feet, however. Lots 4 , 51 71 14
and 17 as shown have lot widths of less than 30 feet at the
street. The proposed widths should be increased to meet
a minimum of 30 foot standard.
In addition, solar access setback regulations will apply
to all lots. The purpose of the solar access setback
provisions is to provide a reasonable amount of solar
access to lots in the City so that the economic value of
solar radiation falling on those properties will be
preserved and the option to use solar energy will be
encouraged. Any structures built on the lots in a
residential zone must maintain solar access to the adjacent
lots to the north.
Based on a 20 foot assumed building height, preliminary
calculations indicate that lots 14 and 17 may have an
especially restricted building area due to required solar
access setbacks from the north property line. Buildings
on these lots should be carefully designed to comply with
the solar access setback regulations so that the highest
shade producing point of the structure above grade does not
cast a prohibited shadow onto adjoining property. Other
lots must also meet the solar access setbacks.
Lot 17 has a particularly difficult configuration. In
addition to the narrow lot width and restricted building
area due to the solar access setback, this lot fronts on
three streets: proposed 100th Avenue SE, SE 248th Street
and the local cul-de-sac. This lot should be redesigned-
-perhaps incorporating it into lots 14, 15, 16 and 18--to
reduce street frontages to a maximum of two for any lot.

Staff Report
Canterbury Subdivision
#SU-88-5
E. Subdivision Code
The purpose of the City of Kent Subdivision Code is to
provide rules, regulations, requirements, and standards for
subdividing land in the City of Kent, ensuring that the
highest feasible quality in subdivision will be attained;
that the public health, safety, general welfare, and
aesthetics of the City of Kent shall be promoted and
protected; that orderly growth, development, and the
conservation, protection and proper use of land shall be
ensured; that proper provisions for all public facilities
(including circulation, utilities, and services) shall be
taken into consideration; that conformance with provisions
set forth in the City of Kent Zoning Code and Kent
Comprehensive Plan shall be ensured.
Planning Department Comment:
The proposed plat is in general conformance with the
regulations of the Subdivision Code. Streets conform to
the circulation pattern established in the area and all
proposed sewers, water mains, and other utilities will
comply with applicable City requirements. One Subdivision
Code provision is not addressed by the proposed preliminary
plat, however. Those properties fronting two more or less
parallel streets (currently lots 3, 4 , 5, 14, 15, 16, 17 ,
and 18) must have only one street access. Driveways must
be restricted to meet this requirement.
F. Comprehensive Plan
The City of Kent first adopted a City-wide Comprehensive
Land Use Plan in 1969 . The goals, objectives and policies
of the Comprehensive Plan represent an expression of
community intentions and aspirations concerning the future
of Kent and the area within the Sphere of Interest. The
Comprehensive Plan is used by the Mayor, City Council, City
Administrator, Planning Commission, Hearing Examiner and
City departments to guide growth, development and spending
decisions. Residents, land developers, business
representatives and others may refer to the plan as a
statement of the City' s intentions concerning future
development.
The City of Kent has also adopted a number of subarea plans
that address specific concerns of certain areas of the
3
Staff Report
Canterbury Subdivision
#SU-88-5
City. Like the City-wide Plan, the subarea plans serve as
policy guides for future land use in the City of Kent.
This area is served by the East Hill subarea plan.
The following is a review of these plans as they relate to
the subject property.
CITY-WIDE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN
The City-wide Comprehensive Plan is made up of two
entities: the Comprehensive Plan Map and the written
goals, objectives and policies. The Comprehensive Plan Map
designates the site as MF, Multifamily. The goals,
objectives and policies outlined in the Plan, however,
support single family residential use of the proposed site.
NATURAL ENVIRONMENT ELEMENT - NATURAL RESOURCES
OVERALL GOAL: PROTECT AND ENHANCE EXISTING NATURAL
RESOURCES.
GOAL 1: Ensure the preservation of ecosystems and protect
their aesthetic values.
Objective 1: Preserve and protect suitable habitat
for local species.
Objective 2 : Protect and enhance existing nesting,
breeding, spawning and feeding areas.
Planning Department Comment:
This Comprehensive Plan goal and objectives establish the
City policy which causes new private developments in
wildlife areas to landscape at least three (3) percent of
their land for wildlife.
If approved, this proposal should provide habitat for the
birds and other wildlife which currently use the site.
This requirement could be met by retention of some of the
forested areas in their natural condition. If possible,
contiguous forested areas should be maintained in their
natural state to provide feed and shelter for the animals
presently inhabiting the undisturbed woods.

Staff Report
Canterbury Subdivision
#SU-88-5
HOUSING ELEMENT
OVERALL GOAL: INCREASE THE RESIDENTIAL POPULATION IN KENT,
ASSURING A DECENT HOME AND SUITABLE LIVING ENVIRONMENT FOR
FAMILIES DESIRING TO LIVE IN KENT.
GOAL 3 : Assure an adequate and balanced supply of housing
units offering a diversity of size, densities, age, style
and cost.
Objective 2 : Encourage the production of a variety of
new dwelling units.
Planning Department Comment:
This Comprehensive Plan goal and objective establishes the
City policy of promoting a mix of housing types in Kent.
A major distinction in types of housing units is that
between multifamily and single family units. In recent
years, multifamily development has far outpaced single
family construction.
If approved, this proposal will make available 20 single
family residential lots. This will encourage the
production of single family dwellings in the area and help
to restore a balance in the mix of single family and
multifamily housing types.
EAST HILL PLAN
As with the City-wide Comprehensive Plan, the East Hill has
two components: the East Hill Plan Map, which designates
the site as MF12 , Multifamily with 7 to 12 units per acre,
and the Goals, Objectives and Policies, some of which are
detailed below.
NATURAL ENVIRONMENT ELEMENT
OVERALL GOAL: PROMOTE ORDERLY DEVELOPMENT PATTERNS
WHICH RECOGNIZE AND RESPOND TO THE NATURAL ENVIRONMENT AND
THE FUNCTIONING OF NATURAL SYSTEMS.
Goal 1: Preservation and enhancement of the natural
qualities that make the East Hill area an attractive place
in which to live.
5
Staff Report
Canterbury Subdivision
#SU-88-5
Objective 1: Promote development that utilizes
significant natural features to enhance
development character and preserve
natural amenities.
Objective 2: Maintain and restore the natural
character of the East Hill community
through the retention and introduction
of native and ornamental plants in
existing and planned development.
Planning Department Comment:
In a May 1981 telephone survey of residents in the East
Hill area, respondents were asked about the importance of
natural features and resources of the East Hill area in
maintaining their quality of life. Natural views and
woodland areas were described as being "very important" by
60 percent or more. Woodlands received the highest
importance rating (79 percent) .
According to the East Hill Plan, woodlands also maintain
soil stability and protect water quality by reducing
erosion, moderate flooding by reducing the rate and volume
of storm runoff, and increase human comfort by moderating
temperatures, acting as windbreaks and reducing noise
levels, glare and reflection.
Care must be taken with this proposal to preserve, as much
as practicable, the forest amenities so valued by East Hill
residents. A comprehensive, accurate tree plan for each
lot, showing all trees of six-inch caliper or greater, will
need to be submitted by the applicant prior to any grading,
filling or construction on that lot. The plan should also
show the trees in relationship to any proposed structure.
HOUSING ELEMENT
OVERALL GOAL: ASSURE PRESENT AND FUTURE EAST HILL
RESIDENTS HOUSING THAT IS SAFE, OFFERS A DESIRABLE LIVING
ENVIRONMENT, AND IS SUPPORTED BY ADEQUATE COMMUNITY
FACILITIES AND SERVICES.
Goal 1: Residential development that is related to the
availability of community facilities and services.
6
Staff Report
Canterbury Subdivision
#SU-88-5
Objective 1: When making decisions concerning land
use, consider the adequacy of and impact
upon roads and other public facilities
and services including utilities, policy
and fire protection, public
transportation, schools and parks.
Policy 1: Ensure that public facilities and
services are available or will be
available to support development at
proposed densities.
Policy 2 : Locate new single-family detached
residential development in areas and at
densities which permit roads, utilities,
public transit, schools and other public
facilities and services to be provided
in an efficient and cost-effective
manner.
Planning Department Comment:
The proposed subdivision will result in 20 single family
dwellings and provide an infill of development at a site
surrounded primarily by single family development.
Assuming 2 .9 persons per household, adequate community
facilities and services will be available to serve an
additional 58 persons.
As a condition of subdivision approval, the two internal
cul-de-sacs to the site will be fully developed. In
addition, improvements will be made to 100th Avenue SE and
SE 248th Street. A traffic study and mitigation measures
to control the traffic impacts due to the Canterbury
Subdivision development will be undertaken. (In lieu of
the traffic study, the developer may execute a no-protest
LID agreement to participate in the formation of an LID to
construct the S. 272nd/277th Street corridor project. )
The subject site has access to public transportation.
METRO service is available on 104th Avenue SE,
approximately 650 feet to the east of the proposed
development.
On August 31, 1988, the Kent Planning Department received
a letter from the Superintendent of the Kent School
District. In his letter, George Daniel emphasized the fact
7
Staff Report
Canterbury Subdivision
#SU-88-5
that the School District is not able to build new schools
fast enough to accommodate the rapid growth that the Kent
area is facing. He says, "In short, we do not have room
for the children that will be generated by this
development" .
The City does not have a vehicle to collect fees from
developers in order to accommodate costs of adding
facilities for the School District. Currently, the
Planning Department is working with the City Attorney' s
Office in order to determine the feasibility and legality
of addressing this growing problem.
As a result of street and sidewalk improvements, pedestrian
and vehicular traffic will have safe and efficient access
through the area. Kent Public Schools has requested that
the developer consider providing school bus waiting areas
and/or pull-offs to serve the children from the
subdivision. These measures would further enhance the
safety of nearby residents.
GOAL 4 : Adequate land and facilities to provide
recreational opportunities for those living and working in
the East Hill area.
Objective 3 : Provide open space or vegetative buffers
throughout the community as urban or
suburban development occurs.
Planning Department Comment:
This Comprehensive Plan goal and objective endorses the
retention of open space in residential areas for the
passive and active recreational use of those who live
nearby. Presently, the undeveloped site is crossed by
trails which indicate that local residents use the woodland
for recreation. Development of the site will end such use.
The developer of the Canterbury Subdivision should consider
increasing the attractiveness of the developed property to
potential home-buyers by providing common open space or a
small neighborhood park within the subdivision. Through
the provision of such an amenity, the developer would also
be contributing to an enhanced quality of life for the
neighborhood.

II. HISTORY
Site and Area History
The proposed subdivision occupies Lot 32 of R.O. Smith's Orchard
Tracts Addition. This site was part of the East Hill Well Area
2 (Area A) Annexation to the City which occurred in the spring
of 1987. This annexation was the result of the City taking over
and improving the water system for customers of the East Hill
Well Company. Prior to annexation, the property was zoned SR-
7200 under the jurisdiction of King County. Following
annexation, an interim R1-20, Single Family Residential (minimum
lot size 20, 000 square feet) , zoning was applied. The present
R1-7 . 2, Single Family Residential, zoning was implemented in
August of 1987 .
III. LAND USE
Land use in the area is almost exclusively residential.
1. The site itself is currently undeveloped except for a
single family rental residence in the vicinity of proposed
lots 15 and 16. This residence will be demolished in the
event the plat is approved.
2 . To the south across SE 248th Street are single family
residences, a duplex and the new Forest Creek Apartments.
3 . To the north, east and west are single family residences.
IV. ENVIRONMENTAL CONCERNS
A. Environmental Assessment
A final Mitigated Declaration of Nonsignificance was issued
on October 27, 1988 with the following conditions:
1. The developer shall analyze the storm drainage basin
(downstream) and tributary to this development and
make any improvements deemed necessary by the Public
Works Department. These improvements will include,
but may not be limited to, the installation of an
adequately sized culvert under SE 248th Street.
2 . The developer shall intercept any drainage that flows
on site from adjacent properties and provide easements
9
Staff Report
Canterbury Subdivision
#SU-88-5
to the outlet across SE 248th Street and provide on-
site detention and biofiltration for on-site drainage.
3 . The developer of the Canterbury Subdivision shall do
a traffic study to identify all traffic impacts upon
the City of Kent road network and traffic signal
system. The study shall identify all intersections
in this area at service "D, " "E" or "F" or which will
be at level of service "F" due to increased traffic
volumes from this development.
The study shall then identify what improvements are
necessary to mitigate the development impacts thereon.
Upon agreement by the City with the findings of the
study and mitigation measures outlined in the study,
implementation and/or construction of said mitigation
measures shall be the conditional requirement of the
issuance of the respective development permits.
In lieu of conducting the above traffic study,
constructing and/or implementing the respective
mitigation measures hereby, the developer may agree
to the following conditions to mitigate the traffic
impacts due to the Canterbury Subdivision development.
A. The developer shall execute an environmental
mitigation agreement in the form of a no-protest
LID agreement to participate in the formation of
an LID to construct the S. 272nd/277th Street
corridor project. The minimum benefit to the
above development is estimated at $21, 360 based
upon 20 p.m. peak hour trips entering and leaving
the site and the capacity of the S. 272nd/277th
Street corridor.
The execution of this agreement will serve to
mitigate traffic impacts to the above mentioned
intersections and road system by committing
funding for the S. 272nd/277th Street corridor
which will provide additional capacity for
traffic volumes within the area of the above
mentioned development.
4. The developer shall construct full street improvements
to 100th Avenue SE for the portion where adequate
right-of-way exists. The remainder shall be half-
street improvements, minimum 24 feet wide (gravel
10
Staff Report
Canterbury Subdivision
#SU-88-5
shoulder one side) , curb and gutter, sidewalk (one
side) , street lighting, underground utilities. In
addition, storm drainage sized for the service area
shall be required.
B. Significant Physical Features
Topography and Vegetation
The subject site is presently undeveloped ground except for
the existing single family rental residence and the unpaved
area of proposed 100th Avenue SE. The topography is fairly
hilly, with a gradual slope to the west of about 8 percent.
The parcel is covered with numerous large evergreens and
some deciduous trees. A considerable amount of forest
undergrowth also exists.
C. Significant Social Features
1. Street System
The subject property has access to SE 248th Street by
way of proposed 100th Avenue SE. SE 248th Street is
classified as a collector arterial. The street has
a public right-of-way width of 60 feet while the
actual width of paving is 24 feet. The street has a
narrow shoulder and no sidewalks. The average daily
traffic count on SE 248th Street is 2, 800 vehicle
trips per day. Traffic mitigation conditions have
already been determined as part of the SEPA review
process. One Hundreth Avenue SE and SE 248th Street
will be improved. Street lighting and full street
improvements will be required at the intersection.
The two cul-de-sacs in the Canterbury Subdivision will
be developed to serve the proposed lots. Full street
improvements will be provided including a minimum 28-
foot wide pavement, curbs and gutters, minimum five
feet sidewalks, street lighting, storm drainage
facilities, underground utilities, and related
appurtenances. The rights of way will be deeded to
the City of Kent.
2 . Water System
An existing eight-inch water main is available in
SE 248th Street to serve the subject property. Water
11
Staff Report
Canterbury Subdivision

Kent Planning Commission Minutes
January 30, 1989
Commissioner Stoner asked what plans Polygon had made for the
historic cemetery site. Mr. Young responded that the cemetery
would continue to be zoned Residential Agricultural, RA, and there
would be a 20-foot setback. On the east side of the cemetery there
would be a significant separation from the project. Polygon would
maintain the separation, and the cemetery would continue in its
present form.
Jim Rust, 8619 South 218th, asked if there were any provisions for
routes around South 218th. At the present time cars enter South
218th and leave by going out the same street.
Bob Millikin, Operations Manager of Van Waters and Rogers, 8201
South 212th, moved from Seattle in 1973 to Kent and has no desire
to change their location. He expressed concern that future
development may not wish to have them remain in this area. He was
also concerned about making a left-hand turnout from this property.
Mr. Satterstrom responded that Van Waters and Rogers conforms to
the zoning code and is one of the most attractive M3 uses in the
East Valley area. He saw no reason for concern.
Torgy Torgerson, 24456 164th Avenue SE, Kent, felt that the present
zoning should remain unchanged or be changed to Commercial
Manufacturing because of the surrounding uses. He was also
concerned about trees obscuring signs in the area.
Lawrence Campbell, 1609 South Central, Kent, supported the proposed
rezone but wondered why all the areas within the East Valley were
not being rezoned to comply with the plan. He felt it would be
unfair to the other property owners if they were required to
individually go through the zoning process. He represented two
clients who wished to rezone their properties. Mr. Satterstrom
responded that these two areas were significantly inconsistent with
the planned designation.
Jim Lashbrook, 8801 South 218th, asked if the traffic mitigation
would be implemented prior to, during, or after the zoning change.
He felt the area between SR 167 and the proposed GWC should remain
M2 .
HOUSING ELEMENT UPDATE
Mr. Clifton presented the proposal for the Housing Element Update
as requested by Council Resolution Number 1172 which directed the
Planning Department to conduct a two-phased study. Phase I was to
update the Housing Element, and Phase II was to do an area-by-area
analysis of the residential densities. The Kent Comprehensive Plan
has not been updated since 1977 . The Planning staff, with the help
5
Kent Planning Commission Minutes
_., January 30, 1989
of a nine-member advisory committee, reviewed every goal, policy
and objective in the existing plan and unanimously endorsed the
revisions to the Housing Element Update. Following is a summary
of -the five goals.
Goal 1 deals with maintaining and improving the city's existing
residential neighborhoods. There is an emphasis on the retention
of existing residential areas as livable and attractive
neighborhoods. These are considered vital to the overall health
of the city. A survey will take place to analyze the existing
infrastructure deficiencies. one policy addresses protection of
existing single family neighborhoods from incompatible uses or
other intrusions through buffers, landscaping, fencing and density
gradations.
Goal 2 , New Housing Element, deals with the integration of new
development with existing housing. The first objective addresses
new residential development in suitable areas of the Valley Floor.
This would help to direct growth close to transportation corridors,
near commercial centers and along major commuter transit routes.
Manufactured housing has been proven to be a cost-effective housing
type and can fit in with existing single family neighborhoods.
Housing policies for multifamily development include establishing
densities for new growth and for single family , development,
limiting multifamily development on East Hill, responsibly guiding
new residential growth and developing areas already served by
utilities and transportation systems.
Goal 3 , Housing Diversity and Affordability, plans for more balance
between multifamily and single family housing. By preserving and
maintaining housing, more affordable housing would become
available. Mixed-use zoning would provide an opportunity to live
closer to transportation, shopping and recreational opportunities.
Infilling under-developed neighborhoods can often strengthen
existing single family neighborhoods by adding new housing to these
areas. By reducing minimum lot sizes, it is hoped that this would
reduce the cost by increasing the supply.
Goal 4 , Housing and the Natural Environment, assures that
environmental quality exists in residential areas by prohibiting
residential development in areas unsuitable for development, such
as wetlands and areas that have steep slopes. Conserving features
such as streams, trees and wetlands, providing for open green areas
in residential neighborhoods, protecting sensitive area such as
woodlands, wetlands, meadows and wildlife habitats also assure
environmental quality. The Hazard Area Development Limitations
Map, which currently includes creeks, waterways, steep and unstable
slopes and ravines, should be updated to include woodlands,
6
Kent Planning Commission Minutes
January 30, 1989
wetlands, meadows and wildlife habitats. Good water quality in
residential areas could be promoted by restricting residential
densities in areas unconnected to city sewers in order to protect
the water table.
Goal 51 Housing Special Populations, encourages housing
opportunities for persons with special needs such as senior
citizens, the homeless, mentally and developmentally disabled and
lower income persons and families. Objectives and policies were
created to address concerns for these special populations, such as
funding, , coordination and community acceptance strategies.
Policies include promoting preservation of lower-income housing,
and developing and maintaining a citizen participation process.
Leona Orr, 24909 114th Avenue SE, expressed support of the proposal
for a Housing Element Update. She was concerned about maintaining
the single family neighborhoods and felt that this proposal helped
to preserve this housing. She felt that Goal Number 5 was badly
needed. The work of the staff was greatly appreciated.
Surinder-Pal Khela, 10818 SE 236th, Kent, expressed support of the
update. He liked the idea of limiting multifamily development, but
felt that it should be handled on a regional basis. He suggested
communicating with King County on this issue.
Commissioner Ward MOVED that the public hearing be closed.
Commissioner Greenstreet SECONDED the motion. Motion carried.
Commissioner Stoner MOVED that the Commission adopt the Housing
Element Update as printed and presented to the Commission as
Proposal for a Housing Element Update, January 1989 . Commissioner
Greenstreet SECONDED the motion. Motion carried.
WELFARE FACILITIES IN THE GC ZONE (ZCA 88-10)
Ms. McClung presented the request of South King County Multi-
Service Center, an agency which helps low-income people with
transitional and emergency housing, for a zoning code amendment to
allow transitional housing as an outright permitted use in the
General Commercial zone. She indicated on a map the area that is
zoned GC and defined transitional housing as a facility operated
publicly or privately to provide housing for individuals and/or
families who are otherwise homeless and have no other immediate
living options available to them. Transitional housing shall not
exceed an 18-month period per individual or family. The 18-month
period is the maximum time adopted by the code of South King County
Multi-Service Center and the City of Bellevue. The GC area was
selected because of its close proximity to public transportation,

Comments from Ms. Greenwood on Traffic and Supersonics
The Committee was informed that Ms. Greenwood had phoned and stated
she was unable to attend the meeting but expressed appreciation for
their placing the item on the agenda for discussion. Johnson
suggested staff write a letter to Ms. Greenwood informing her that
the City has not received a response from the Sonics. When the
City does receive a firm proposal from the Sonics the Committee
will address her concerns at that time. The Committee concurred
with the suggestion.
Mrs. Justus Concerns Regarding Intersection of 240th and Benson
Highway
Mrs. Justus stated she was also concerned about the intersections
of 240th and 100th Avenue S.E. , and 240th and 102nd Avenue S.E.
Mrs. Justus referred to the motorists taking their free right off
100th onto 240th and also from 240th onto 100th without watching
for children. There are children who have to walk on the sidewalks
on 240th, cross 100th to get to the ramp to go to school. Mrs.
Justus commented she would like to have free right hand turns
eliminated at this intersection from about 8:30 to 9: 30 a.m. and
2 : 30 to 3 : 30 p.m. In addition she says the vehicles are not
obeying the speed limit on 240th. She said she would also like to
see a sidewalk on 100th. Also there is no marked crosswalk on
100th on the north side of 240th. She also said there is need for
some type of protective signing.
Woods asked if we could have a trial period of restricting free
rights for one hour in the morning and one hour in the afternoon.
Biteman commented he did not feel it would be effective for just
short periods of time. Johnson questioned if we could restrict
free right hand turns. Williamson responded he did not think so
based upon the model traffic code that the City has adopted. He
Public Works Committee
February 14 , 1989
Page 2
added he felt the State Traffic Commission would probably have to
approve it. Johnson asked that Williamson research this matter.
Biteman requested the crosswalks be painted on 100th and installing
a "speed zone when children present" notation to the existing
silhouette sign. Mrs. Justus noted the motorists have almost hit
the crossing guards. Woods inquired about flashing caution signs
that would operate only during the hours the students would be
walking similar to what she has seen on the East Coast. Mrs. Jones
commented there is a flashing school sign in the Federal Way School
District on 16th by Woodmont. Biteman moved that the
Transportation Division analyze the situation and make
recommendations to the Committee at the next meeting. The
Committee unanimously approved.
Mrs. Justus commented the "Walk" "Don't Walk" signals at the new
Fred Meyer intersection do not give adequate time for pedestrians
to cross. In addition there are no wheel chair ramps on one side.
Also, the left hand turn signal for vehicles to exit Fred Meyer at
102nd is on at the same time as the "Walk" signal for pedestrians
to cross 240th and the vehicles do not yield right of way to the
pedestrians. Biteman asked this be included in the previously
requested analysis.
Mrs. Justus stated most of the problems are created by the free
right hand turns especially at 240th and Benson. Marty Nizlek,
Transportation Engineer for the City of Kent, indicated his staff
had prepared an analysis for this meeting of the 240th and Benson
Highway intersection. He commented that during the analysis some
of his staff were placed in dangerous situations by the motorists
not respecting a pedestrian in the crosswalk. He distributed
copies of a signal timing analysis for that intersection. This
signal allows pedestrian movement at a rate of 4 feet per second
plus an additional 7 second buffer. He recommended that a unique
sign be installed which would show a pedestrian in a crosswalk, an
arrow indicating turning traffic, and , a supplemental panel below
with the word "Caution" . Biteman suggested a large sign that said
"Pedestrians Have Right of Way" . Nizlek stated his proposal
addresses the situations when pedestrians are already in the
crosswalk and the motorists need to be alerted to this. He
commented that pedestrians don't always have the right of way and
he has concerns that with the wording proposed by Mr. Biteman the
pedestrians might be placed in hazardous situations. Biteman
moved that the sign as proposed by the Transportation Engineer be
installed. Woods stated she was intrigued by Mr. Biteman's
suggestion. Johnson commented that if the first type of signing
was not effective, the second (Mr. Biteman's proposal) could be
Public Works Committee
February 14 , 1989
Page 3
tried with the exact wording to be reviewed by the City's Legal
Department. The Committee concurred.
Nizlek commented that a video of the area is available for the
Committee' s review showing the operation of the signal. The
Committee asked to view it at the next meeting.
Mrs. Justus asked to be informed of the findings.
Mrs Rosetta Jones Concerns regarding 272nd/277th Corridor
Mrs. Jones distributed a traffic analysis she prepared from
information obtained from the County and the State. She commented
extending 277th across the valley floor would create an "East Hill
situation" on the West Hill. She referred also to the degree of
slope on 277th being 12% which is greater than that allowed on
federally funded highways. She commented there have been 58
accidents in a two year period at Military and 272nd. She went on
to list the accident rates at various intersections on the West
Hill. She commented the quality of life of those living on the
West Hill near S. 272nd would be badly impaired by this highway.
Now it takes approximately 5-10 minutes to make a left hand turn
from the northbound SR 167 exit onto 277th. She referred to
suggested locations for traffic signals - 40th South, 46th South,
Lake Fenwick Road, 55th South & Star Lake Road, two lights needed
at overpass at SR 167 one each for northbound and southbound, and
East Valley Highway. Mrs. Jones suggested widening Kent Des-Moines
Road and using it to carry traffic to the east hill. The Committee
reviewed the reasons for the City's commitment to the 272nd/277th
Corridor project. Biteman asked if any consideration had been
given to extending James across the river and up the hill.
Wickstrom responded it has been analyzed many times. The costs
involved are tremendous and the grade up the hill would be
excessive. Wickstrom added that it might be a misconception that
the traffic coming off the east hill on the 277th corridor would
be moving to the west hill area. The bulk of the traffic will stay
in the valley floor area. Woods asked that Mrs. Jones receive
information on the activities of the Mayor's Task Force on Traffic
Congestion. The Committee commented they would take Mrs. Jones
comments under advisement. Mrs. Jones also addressed the impact
of traffic on the quality of Star Lake.
(Judy Woods had to leave the meeting at this point. On the Moss
Construction/Stephen Elkins Water Availability Request issue, she
wanted to be recorded as supporting the Planning Committee' s
recommendation that the ordinance remain as is. Items 6, 7 , and
Public Works Committee
February 14, 1989
Page 4
11 were reviewed and Woods stated she had no problems in supporting
the recommendations on these items. In addition, she was
supportive of the Canyon Drive issues. )
Moss Construction/Steve Elkins Water Availability
Wickstrom reviewed previous actions on this item. It was last
referred to the Planning Department to review the Comprehensive
Land Use Plan for the area in question. Their study did not
identify the need for any change in the Comprehensive Plan. The
Planning Committee supported these findings. The remaining options
available for Committee decision would be to either amend the
ordinance deleting the section requiring consistency with the
City's Land Use Plan or to recommend the ordinance remain as is and
that development be required to be consistent with the City's
proposed land use for the area. Elkins stated his request was for
an expansion for his industrial building and the water availability
would be used simply for the additional restroom facilities
required. Johnson asked if there was any way the City could
condition a water availability permit by restricting its use.
Williamson stated that Mr. Elkins has already signed a agreement
with the City wherein he agreed to use the water consistent with
the City's comprehensive land use plan. By virtue of his
industrial use, he is in conflict with the land use plan.
Williamson further stated without amending the existing ordinance
he did not see how we could condition any water availability and
he did not see how we could create an ordinance allowing certain
use exceptions without creating major difficulties in policing the
ordinance. Biteman asked what the impact would be of amending the
existing ordinance deleting the requirement for consistency with
the land use plan. Williamson and Wickstrom responded that
property would be able to develop in densities or uses other than
what the City would allow if the property were within the city
limits. Responding to Biteman' s question, Williamson recommended
the ordinance remain as is and it be applied strictly. Biteman
moved not to amend the ordinance and apply it as written. The
Committee concurred.
Green River Bridge Replacement
Wickstrom distributed copies of an analysis of available funding
sources. He related he had reviewed all the public works projects
to determine the availability of uncommitted funds. These funds
are shown on the summary. In addition, he listed additional
funding needs for 1989 for projects that have emanated since
preparation of the 1989 budget. These needs exceed the amount of
Public Works Committee
February 14 , 1989
Page 5
available funds. Wickstrom proposed funding the first six projects
shown on his summary from the available funds which he reviewed for
the Committee. He noted that most of the funds for the Green River
Bridge Replacement would probably not be required until 1990.
Funding for the remaining projects, Wickstrom recommended, be
addressed at the time those needs come before Council. Wickstrom
reviewed these for the Committee as well. Biteman moved that the
Director' s recommendations be approved. The Committee unanimously
concurred. This approval addresses items 5 (Green River Bridge
Replacement) , 9 (Canyon Drive Removal and Replacement of Pylons)
and 10 (SR 516/SR 99 Intersection Improvement) on the agenda.
Johnson asked if the pylons were going to be replaced on Canyon.
Wickstrom commented they will be replaced on a temporary basis with
another type of pylon. In designing the Canyon Drive Improvements,
the left turn pockets will be constructed in the locations
originally intended and the remaining road widened between the left
turn pockets so that jersey barriers could be installed in the
future as needed. The current design calls for striping these
areas to restrict left turns. While the property owners have not
been advised as yet, the Transportation Engineer indicates hazards
of left turns in specific areas do exist. Wickstrom clarified for
Johnson that previously it had been thought a greater shy distance
was required for jersey barriers. Further study has been done and
it appears there is adequate room for them.
Riverview RV Park (Kantor RV Park) Agreement
Wickstrom explained the developer is, in accordance with the City's
Comprehensive Plan, oversizing and installing to extra depth a
sewer main to service an area larger than his immediate
development. The developer is requesting the City participate in
the costs involved in the oversizing and extra depth. The Director
estimated the cost to the City would be approximately $21, 925 and
it is his recommendation the City agree to participate and the
Mayor be authorized to sign the agreement. The Committee
unanimously approved the recommendation.
Alignment of Crow Road
Wickstrom explained this item is in conjunction with the Ruth
Rezone. The developer deeded right of way for alignment of Crow
Road to the City. To clear his title on his property, the
Developer has asked the City quit claim deed back to him any
unrequired right of way. The Committee unanimously concurred.
Public Works Committee
February 14, 1989

Canyon Drive Authorization to Establish Budget
Wickstrom explained this is a housekeeping matter. The auditors
require we have specific authorization to apply for federal funds
and to establish a budget for those funds for this project. The
Committee unanimously concurred with the request.
L.I.D. 331 S E 240th Street Improvement (108th - 116th1
Wickstrom explained there is one parcel on which negotiations are
still underway for right of way but to date have not been
successful. Wickstrom recommended staff be authorized to pursue
condemnation if required. The Committee unanimously approved the
request.
Other
Biteman asked about intersection improvements at Meeker and SR 516.
His suggestions were submitted to the Transportation Engineer for
review.
Executive Session
At 5:41 p.m. the Committee adjourned to an executive session to
discuss pending litigation and property acquisition.
