Authorization to Surplus Equipment
Wickstrom explained that in order to dispose of surplus utility
equipment we must hold a public hearing and adopt a resolution
declaring the material surplus and offer it for sale to the highest
bidder. The Committee unanimously recommended approval to hold the
public hearing and adopt the resolution declaring the material
surplus.
Mrs. Rust commented about the disposition of the shelves in the old
library. Tony McCarthy explained that we have had vendors
submitting bids'to purchase the materials. Jim White asked about
the old furniture from the three departments that moved into the
Centennial Building. Tony McCarthy commented that other
departments took those items that could be used. We received bids
from used furniture dealers to purchase the remaining pieces of
furniture. Jim White asked if the City has a written inventory of
all the equipment and furniture. McCarthy stated that the
departments have submitted lists of their furniture and equipment.
As staffing levels and time permits, those will be inventoried.
Speed Limit Changes During Construction - Canyon Drive
Wickstrom explained that we are proposing to lower the speed limits
on Canyon Drive from'40 to 30 MPH during the construction period.
This ordinance will be on the Council's agenda for October 1. The
Committee unanimously recommended approval to adopt the ordinance
lowering the speed limits.
Implementation of Street Occupation Ordinance
Wickstrom distributed a draft list of recommended charges for those
issues addressed in the street occupation ordinance. The proposed
changes are based on what our administrative costs would be to
issue the permit. Some of the charges shown on the listing are

FROM: DON WICKSTROM
RE: SURPLUS OF WATER UTILITY MATERIALS
The Water Division is requesting authorization to surplus scrap
materials, water meters, pipe and fittings that are no longer in
use. Because the materials are part of the water utility, State
law requires that Council hold a public hearing on disposition of
the materials, adopt a resolution declaring them surplus and offer
same for sale to the highest bidder.
We are recommending the public hearing be held at your October 15th
Council meeting at which time the resolution declaring the material
as surplus would be presented for adoption.

old material that has been replaced in the field and returned and stored at the
operations yard. All this material should be put out for bid and sold by weight.
This will be bid by the pound and weighed on a certified scale.

PUBLIC Council President Woods noted that Agenda Items 4E
COMMUNICATION (SeaTac Boundaries) and 4F (Proposed SeaTac Sewer
Extension) have been removed from tonight's agenda
at the request of the City of SeaTac.
Councilmember Johnson asked that Agenda Item 4E
(King County/Metro Merger.) be removed from the
agenda.
Employee of the Month. Mayor Kelleher announced
that Kathy Kolke of the Police Department has been
selected as Employee of the Month for October. He
noted that she is praised by her co-workers for
her dedication and commitment to her job. Police
Chief Crawford noted that Ms. Kolke goes the extra
mile for the patrol officers and detectives, and
is always very determined to find every bit of
information available. Fie thanked her for her
hard work and Mayor Kelleher presented her with
the Employee of the Month. plaque.
Crime Prevention Month. Mayor Kelleher read a
proclamation declaring October 1991 as Crime Pre-
vention Month in the City of Kent and urging all
citizens, governmental agencies, public and pri-
vate institutions, and businesses to increase
their participation in cur community's crime and
drug prevention efforts.
National Night Out. Police Chief Crawford noted
that Kent placed fourth in the National Night Out
competition last year for cities under 40,000
population. He introduced Officer Dina Paganucci
who noted that 11 neighborhoods in Kent had parti-
cipated by giving neighborhood crime and drugs a
going away party. She explained that a contest
had been held and presented certificates to the
winners: 1st place --Dawn Cless, 2nd place--

PUBLIC Colleen Woodworth and Brooke Settle, and 3rd
COMMUNICATION place--Charlet Carnagey.
Metro Presentation. Mayor Kelleher introduced
King County Councilmember and Metro Councilmember
Greg Nickels. Nickels noted that a plan has been
developed which contains immediate improvements in
bus service, a high occupancy vehicle system, and
a rail system which would connect the region from
Everett to Tacoma. He said the rail system is the
best, but most expensive, system. Julie Rodwell,
Capital Project Coordinator with Metro, showed
slides regarding the regional transit project and
noted that the huge growth in the past 20 years
has presented opportunities as well as problems.
She noted that Metro is concerned about gas con-
sumption, pollution, and special needs for the
handicapped. She added that Metro has the largest
vanpool program in the country, as well as carpool
matching. She clarified for White that some high
occupancy vehicle lanes require 3 people in the
vehicle and some only 2, and that high density
areas require three. She noted that because there
are already tracks in place, commuter rail could
be in use as early as 1996 or 1997 in South King
County. Mayor Kelleher pointed out that it is
important to have density near the rail stations
in order to make the rail service feasible, and
that there are presently proposals before Kent's
Planning Commission to allow unlimited density
within walking distance of our commuter rail sta-
tion. Nickels stated that they hope to have a
plan together early next year, with a vote possi-
bly as early as fall of 1992. He added that the
Metro Transit Subcommittee is recommending three
funding sources: an increase in the local option
sales tax, an increase in the motor vehicle excise
tax, and extending the sales tax to gasoline.
CONSENT WOODS MOVED that Consent Calendar Items A through
CALENDAR K be approved. Orr seconded and the motion car-
ried.

Orr seconded and the motion carried.
MOBILE HOME (PUBLIC HEARINGS - ITEM 2B)
PARK CODE Mobile Home Park Code Amendments. This public
AMENDMENTS hearing will consider revisions to the Kent Mobile
Home Park Code. At the August 6, 1991 Council
meeting, Council amended the Mobile Home Park Code
and requested that the Planning Department meet
with interested people and come back with any
additional necessary amendments. Carol Proud of
the Planning Department indicated that staff has
met with mobile home park owners, and has further
revisions to the Mobile Home Park Code. She
stated that the owners had questions on the
following items: setbacks on mobile home park
boundaries, permit process, recreational vehicle
issues, structure, variance procedures, and
spacing requirements. She said that the amend-
ments before the Council tonight address those
concerns. Proud noted that with regard to set-
backs, staff proposes to eliminate review by the
Planning Department of mobile home park move -ins
for non -conforming parks. She noted that regard-
ing setbacks for accessory structures, the City
will be using the Uniform Building & Fire Code
standards, which give more flexibility as to what
can be placed on an individual mobile space. She
noted that the Building Department has developed
an assistance brochure for park owners outlining
procedures for a permit. She added that staff can
5
October 1, 1991
MOBILE HOME call up site plans on the computer to try to save
PARK CODE owners the cost of surveying the sites. She ex -
AMENDMENTS plained that they want to be able to verify tie -
downs, etc.
Proud explained that because of the way mobiles
are being manufactured today, some people have
spaces where a newer single -wide can't fit. She
noted that staff proposes that when a park owner
can demonstrate that the site is too small for
anything but an RV, that the Building Official has
the discretion to allow an RV to move in. With
regard to the accessory structures, Proud noted
that in going with Uniform Building Code stan-
dards, there will be a considerable amount of
flexibility for homeowners. She noted that she
has incorporated existing appeal procedures with
regard to the Building Official (Kent City Code
14.01), in case of a disagreement. She said the
final item was spacing concerns and that by elimi-
nating the concept of a mobile home lot and going
with spacing in between the units, a lot of the
concerns were eliminated. She said it will be
measured solely on whether or not an accessory
structure is combustible or not combustible, and
the distance between units. Proud noted that
staff recommends approval of the amendments to the
Mobile Home Park Code with these modifications.
The Mayor declared the public hearing open. John
Marshall, owner of Valley Manor Mobile Home Park,
said Proud has done a fine job on this matter and
asked for clarification on tie -down requirements.
Assistant Fire Chief Berg said it is their intent
to enforce the State statutes on that matter, and
that they would look at tie -downs on units as they
are being replaced. Proud noted for Marshall that
during new construction when a mobile is being
placed on a new lot, various utilities companies
will come out and verify the location of the tie -
down. Upon a question from Bill Doolittle, 412 N.
Washington, Berg noted that mobile homes will
indeed blow away, and that State statutes deal
with the installation of mobile homes. There were
no further comments and WOODS MOVED to close the
October 1, 1991
MOBILE HOME public hearing. White seconded and the motion
PARK CODE carried. JOHNSON MOVED to accept the revisions to
AMENDMENTS the Mobile Home Park Code and to direct the City
Attorney to prepare the necessary ordinance. Orr
seconded and the motion carried.
ANNEXATION (OTHER BUSINESS - ITEM 4C)
East Hill Annexation. This date has been set for
a public meeting with the petitioners of the East
Hill Annexation. Those petitioners have been
notified of this meeting. The Public Works Com-
mittee has recommended proceeding with the annexa-
tion with the boundary modification as recommended
by the Public Works Director and authorizing the
circulation of the 60 percent petition subject to
the City's existing indebtedness. Wickstrom
pointed out the boundaries and noted that the area
involves 608.5 acres, has a population of approxi-
mately 982, ar}d has a total assessed valuation of
$4,700,000.
City Attorney Lubovich explained that the City has
received a petition for annexation from property
owners of 10% of the assessed value of the proper-
ty designated for annexation. He noted that the
meeting tonight is to review the petition, review
the boundary, determine whether or not to include
the acceptance of City indebtedness, and to
approve, modify or reject the petition. He pointed
out that if the annexation petition is accepted by
the Council, petitioners must then collect signa-
tures from the owners of 60% of the assessed value
of the property, and then a public hearing would
be scheduled before the City Council. He said
that the matter would go for SEPA review and to
the Boundary Review Board, and following those
reviews and the Council hearing, an ordinance may
be adopted and submitted to King County.
Wickstrom noted that the area contains a small
parcel which has been split, and that the City
proposes to expand the boundary to include the
entire parcel, as recommended by the Public Works
Committee. The Mayor urged the Council to consid-
er amending the boundary to delete all land south
of 272nd. WHITE MOVED that the City proceed with
the annexation modifying the boundary as recom-
mended by the Public Work,; Director and
7
October 1, 1991
ANNEXATION authorizing the circulation of the 60% petition
subject to the City's existing indebtedness. Orr
seconded. Johnson stated that the issue of annex-
ation is a separate issue from whether or not a
road is built in the future. Orr pointed out that
this petition was submitted to the City by proper-
ty owners in the area.
Dave Chaplin, a resident of Tudor Square, spoke in
opposition to the road, noting that if Kent
annexes the property it would be easier to get the
road through. Upon his question, Wickstrom stated
that there is no small group of property owners
that could carry 60% of the assessed value of the
property. Ed Pilowski also spoke in opposition to
the road, and reminded the residents of the area
that if the area is annexed, they would have an
opportunity to vote City Councilmembers out of
office. Upon a question from Doug Drennan, the
Mayor noted that the King County Assessor's Office
determines the value of the property.
Upon a question from John Kieffer, Assistant City
Attorney Brubaker explained that the petition
method is being used rather than the election
method because that is what was presented to the
City. He added that since the petition has been
started, no other method can be used. Kieffer
said he feels the reason for the annexation is to
control the area for the 277th corridor. Upon
other questions from Mr. Kieffer, Mayor Kelleher
explained that funding for the 277th corridor has
come from State grant money, City Councilmatic
bonding capacity which all Kent residents would
pay through their tax revenues, and LID mitigation
agreements. Planning Director Harris explained
that urban boundaries are designated only by King
County, working with local jurisdictions, and that
although Auburn has stated where they would like
the boundaries, no official action can yet be
taken. The Mayor said it is the City's policy to
address any concerns about liabilities and to work
to upgrade systems within any annexed areas. He
also noted for Kieffer that no deals have been
cut. In regard to actions by King County and the
e
October 1, 1991
ANNEXATION Soos Creek Plan, the Mayor said the City's posi-
tion has been to pressure the County for lower
densities than they have previously been
authorizing in that area.
Richard Loran, 27124 - 104th Avenue SE, stated
that he has signed a no -protest agreement and
asked whether that would be an automatic yes vote
for annexation. Wickstrom said it has not been
determined whether the existing agreements will be
used. He also explained for Loran that the
assessed value is a dollar amount. David W.
Bevan, 11317 SE 269th, said that a large portion
of the signatures came as a condition of connect-
ing to the sewer system, not with the idea of
putting a road on 277th. He said the general
feeling is that this is aimed at putting in the
road and that many people do not want it.
Upon a question from Dowell, Wickstrom said that
the annexation has nothing to do with how the road
is financed or built. Dowell pointed out that
whether the area is annexed or not makes very
little difference as to the route or the cost of
272/277. He said it is possible that the City may
annex the area and build a road, the City may
annex the area and not build the road, the City
may not annex and build the road, and the City may
not annex and not build the road. He said the
focus should be on what the citizens will have to
pay for the annexation, rather than on whether or
not there will be a road.
Marie Shirett said people should look at the over-
all view of the annexation and said it may bring
many benefits. Laurie Muller, 10997 SE 284th,
spoke against the road and said that if the peti-
tion is approved tonight citizens will band
together against it. Dowell pointed out that by
incorporating these citizens into the City and
providing police and fire service, the existing
citizens of Kent will be taking on an obligation
because the taxes coming in will not pay for the
outgo. He said the annexation will cost current
citizens of Kent $22,000 a year. The Mayor
pointed out that densely developed areas cost less
to serve than sparsely developed areas because
they pay for themselves.
9
October 1, 1991
ANNEXATION Orr said the road and the annexation are two sep-
arate issues, and noted that there can be benefits
to annexation. She said that citizens inside the
City limits have a say as to what happens in the
City. She noted that she has supported that road
because there is no better solution to traffic
problems, and that the Council has made it very
clear that they would support a limited access
type of roadway rather than dense development
around it, but the only way to assure that is to
have some control over it.
Richard Loran said that because of staff's comment
that it is to the City's benefit to approve the
annexation, the Council's decision will be biased.
Johnson pointed out that the City is not promoting
this annexation, and that people can choose
whether or not to sign the petition. He said the
road will be addressed in the future whether this
area is annexed or not, and that the issue before
the Council is whether or not to approve the 10%
petition and give these citizens the opportunity
to circulate a 60% petition. Mann voiced concern
about when police and fire service would be
expected for that area, what the impact would be
on those departments, and how this would affect
the $6 million budget shortfall. Brubaker noted
that there is no specific time requirement, but
that if after a certain number of months the peti-
tion was not turned in, Council could call the
process to a conclusion. Police Chief Crawford
explained that he has not researched the effect on
the police department, and Assistant Fire Chief
Berg explained that the proposed area is within
the boundaries of King County Fire District 37 and
that the City provides fire service there under
contract. Berg said the City presently collects
$49,500 a year and that money would no longer be
paid if the area were annexed although Kent would
respond to the sane incid<snts.
White pointed out that the Council passed a
resolution declaring a moratorium on extending
utilities outside City limits and the driving
force for this annexation was so that utilities
could be extended to this area. He said the ques-
tion now is whether Council agrees to proceed with
this and give citizens who do not live within the
10
October 1, 1991
ANNEXATION City limits of Kent the right to sign the petition
or not sign it. He pointed out that if the area
is not annexed to the City of Kent, the residents
have no bearing on whether or not present Council -
members continue to serve in office.
Dowell pointed out that County Councilmember
Nickels, who represents these citizens, said ear-
lier tonight that in order to have mass transpor-
tation, there must be more density. He added that
if these citizens want a voice they should consid-
er annexation as a possibility.
There were no further comments and the motion car-
ried.

ITEM 2A)
City Council must make a find-

committed any of the acts des -
such a finding is made, the
the business license of U.S.
City Attorney Lubovich explained that the purpose
of this meeting is to consider the facts relating
to the proposed revocation of the business license
for U.S. Engines based on code violations and
other considerations. Thomas Cinko,Vice-President
of U.S. Engines, Inc. noted that the City has
filed charges against U.S. Engines for operating
an engine installation center, for being out of
code on the sign on the side of the building, and
for an outside storage building. He stated that
they have ceased operation and invited Councilmem-
bers to visit the site. He indicated that it is
their intent to use the facility for the remanu-
facturing business. Lubovich noted that he has
received a fax from the Attorney General's Office
regarding complaints against U.S. Engines, Inc.
The Mayor declared the public hearing open. Carol
Morris of the City Attorney's Office outlined the
criteria to be used in determining whether or not
to revoke the business license. She pointed out
that this is a separate issue from whether or not
violations are being committed now. Morris ex-
plained for Dowell that the business was cited at
11
October 1, 1991
BUSINESS one time for operating without a business license,
LICENSE but that they had applied again and after issuance
REVOCATION of a license it was determined that they were
still in violation of the code. Charlene Anderson
of the Planning Department noted that violations
date back to 1988 and that the Planning Department
has tried to obtain resolution of the violations
since that time. She noted that the violations
relate to auto repair operations, outdoor storage,
illegal signs, parking in aisles and maneuvring
areas, and operation of another business called
Automobile Engine Installation without a business
license. She said the Planning Department has
received numerous complaints about this operation
and that there are numerous court cases pending.
She noted that staff recommends revocation of the
business license. Police Chief Crawford stated
that the Police Department has been called to U.S.
Engines on numerous occasions, but that since they
did not see violations of criminal statutes, no
reports were taken.
Assistant Fire Chief Bera stated that in July 1991
an inspector observed five vehicles inside the
business in the process of having engines
exchanged. On September 20, inspectors observed
Class 1, 2 and 3 flammable and combustible liquids
being used, which are in violation of the
building's occupancy class. On September 24 a
letter was written to U.S. Engines telling them
that in order to continue operation, the building
would have to be upgraded to an H4 occupancy.
Richard Chase of the Public Works Department
stated that on July 1, 1991, the City received a
citizen complaint about oil being dumped into the
storm sewer at U.S. Engines, and that on July 3 he
visited the site and observed a storm catch basin
and drainage pipe contaminated with oily sludge.
He said he explained to Tom Cinko that contribut-
ing to pollution in any :storm or surface water
facility within the City is against City Code.
Chase said that on July 5 he wrote a letter of
violation to Russ Segner, owner of the property,
explaining the problem and requiring that the
storm drain system near U.S. Engines be cleaned
out within two weeks. He revisited the site on
July 30 and observed a whitish stain around the
12
October 1, 1991
BUSINESS catch basin and whitish polluted water in the
LICENSE bottom, and consequently contacted the City
REVOCATION Attorney's Office.
Thomas Cinko, Vice -President of U.S. Engines,
explained that U.S. Engines, Inc. is located at
18403 East Valley Highway, and does have a busi-
ness license. He noted that early in 1990 Michael
Crossan started a facility in the back of U.S.
Engines for troubleshooting and diagnosing only
automobile engines that were remanufactured by
them. After diagnosis the engines were sent out
to a service center for repairs. Cinko said he
attempted to resolve the matter, but that other
matters came up such as the sign violation. He
noted that the sign had always been there, but was
not considered a problem until the other viola-
tions were found. He said he immediately cor-
rected the problem with signs on the road and the
doors. He pointed out that at 18403 East Valley
Highway they take up seven addresses, and lease
over 18,000 sq. ft. He said he feels it is wrong
to attack U.S. Engines' business license, and that
they have ceased operations in the back.
Cinko pointed out that Mr. Chase claimed that he
was carrying 5 gallon buckets of oil to the front
and pouring it into the drain. He noted that Russ
Segner had the drain pumped out. Cinkc indicated
that he is in compliance with Metro, Labor and
Industries, and the Environmental Protection
Agency, and provided copies of letters from them
demonstrating his efforts to make things right.
Cinko asked why he was not cited on 5/31/91 if he
had flammable liquids. fie asked which business
license is being attacked and said he would be
happy to cooperate. He reiterated that the engine
installation center has been closed. Cinko noted
that he had been asked by the park owner to have
employees park on the back side of the building,
but because of the curb, he thought there might be
a problem with the Fire Department, so he asked
employees to pull up to the building. He said
that has since been corrected. Cinko stated that
he has no outdoor storage and urged Councilmembers
to withhold their decision until they visit the
site. WOODS MOVED to accept the documents sub-
mitted by Mr. Cinko into the public record.
13
October 1, 1991
BUSINESS White seconded and the motion carried.
LICENSE
REVOCATION Russ Segner, representative and manager of the
project, said he was not aware of all of the
things brought up tonight, and asked that this
matter be held off to a later time in order to
present additional information. He explained that
there is no problem between Mr. Cinko and the own-
ership. James Ratcliffe, 3600 Meadow Avenue
North, Renton, noted that there are other reasons
to revoke the license beside the violations. He
noted that he had problems dealing with U.S.
Engines, and found out that there had been nine
cases filed against them in King County Court from
1987 to 1991, 28 cases filed against them since
March 1990 with Aukeen District Court, and 22
cases filed against them with the State Attorney
General's Office. Ratcliffe said he was verbally
abused by the company and had to have the dispute
settled in court. He urged the City to stop the
operation of the company. Mr. Cinko agreed that
there had been a problem dealing with Mr.
Ratcliffe regarding an engine, and said that 22
complaints is not a large amount considering that
they have remanufactured approximately 220 automo-
tive engines a month for the past four years.
There was no further public testimony and WOODS
MOVED to close the public hearing. White seconded
and the motion carried.
Upon Dowell's question, Anderson noted that the
code provides for penalties for violations and
that citations have been issued. Carol Morris
pointed out that at every opportunity U.S.
Engines' Attorney has delayed. She noted that the
original citation was issued in March of this
year, and it has been delayed that long with no
resolution on the violations, and now additional
violations have come up. She pointed out that the
business has a license, which was issued in error,
that they have numerous violations, and that the
City Attorney's Office decided to bring the matter
to the Council to make a determination as to
whether or not to revoke the business license.
She explained that violations would then be
handled separately. Morris noted for Dowell that
the business received a zoning permit in May of
1986, not a business license. The Mayor stated
14
October 1, 1991
BUSINESS that if there are any issues of substance to come
LICENSE out, the public hearing should be reopened. Dowell
REVOCATION asked Lubovich whether it would be detrimental to
the applicant to have it known that his business
license had been revoked, since there are many
court cases in progress. He noted that by making
a decision, the City might possibly be interfering
with that process. Lubovich disagreed, and said
the Council must make a determination based on the
specific facts presented tonight, and that the
other cases are separate issues. Anderson noted
for Dowell that the operation of the engine in-
stallation portion has been ceased, but not the
general operation portion of U.S. Engines. Cinko
pointed out that they have a business license for
that. Morris explained that the business license
revocation procedure states that if someone is
operating in violation of the code, the business
license is to be revoked, and that U.S. Engines is
operating in violation of the codes. She said
that it is not necessary to determine tonight
whether the City has documented that violations
are still occurring. Cinko pointed out that the
code violations in question were against American
Engine Installation, which is the facility that
ceased operations, and that there are 37 employees
there. He said they have been in business since
1988 in the production engine remanufacturing bus-
iness, and that they comply with all codes. He
said their attorney has nct asked the City Attor-
ney or the court for extensions, but that at one
court appearance it was mutually agreed to post-
pone to a later date. Upon Woods question, Morris
said she has in her file at least 3 letters from
their attorney asking for extensions of time for
code violations, and gave copies of the letters to
Mayor Kelleher. Morris explained for Orr that if
the license is revoked tonight, the business must
cease operation immediately, they will have to
bring violations into compliance, and they may
apply for a business license at any time and the
City can hold the application pending compliance
with the codes and other requirements. Anderson
noted that it normally takes three to four weeks
to acquire a business license. Orr stated that it
is a strange occurrence that suddenly everything
15
October 1, 1991
BUSINESS is in compliance and the Council has no way of
LICENSE verifying that. Lubovich stated that he had just
REVOCATION received a letter from U.S. Engines' attorney,
James Gooding, seeking an extension of the
pretrial conference scheduled for October 16,
which has already been extended once. Cinko
stated that he was not aware that his attorney had
requested that extension. He explained that there
were two businesses in one facility --American
Engine Installation and U. S. Engines, and that it
was American Engine Installation that was not in
compliance. He said the business license for U.S.
Engines is in compliance with code, that the
installation service center was not in compliance.
Cinko noted that this business employed four
people and they have not worked for a week, and
have told callers that that portion of the
business will be closed. He suggested that the
Council is being misled into believing that
American Engine Installation is U.S. Engines, Inc.
He said the accusations have gotten out of hand
and urged the Council to view his facilities.
WOODS MOVED to revoke the business license of U.S.
Engines, Inc. Orr seconded. Woods noted that if
there are two businesses, there should be two
business licenses and that it appears that there
have been specific on -going code violations. She
stated that six staff members have spoken tonight
on this issue, and that she does not believe they
fabricated the information. She emphasized that
there have been numerous violations and that the
business had been reminded several times to
correct the violations.
Upon a question from Mann, Assistant Fire Chief
Berg said that the document Mr. Cinko presented to
Council dated May 31, 1991, is an in-service
inspection done by the Fire Department. He said
that the violations were observed by the inspec-
tors and were separate from that inspection. He
noted that the observation of the engines exchange
occurred in July and in September an inspector
observed the flammable and combustible liquids
usage. He noted for Dowell that he is speaking of
U.S. Engines, in the exchange area. Berg noted
that all code violations were addressed to U.S.
Engines because they were doing business at
16
October 1, 1991
BUSINESS that location, and that he was not aware of
LICENSE American Engine Installations. Anderson noted for
REVOCATION the Mayor that American Engine Installations does
not have a business license. Upon White's ques-
tion, Cinko stated that the President of U.S.
Engines is Michael Crossan and that there is no
owner of the installation facility. He said that
the stockholder in U.S. Engines is Michael
Crossan, and that American Engine Installations
was doing business for U.S. Engines as a warranty
repair facility, and that Michael Crossan owns it,
if anybody.
WHITE MOVED to make all documents a part of the
record. Woods seconded and the motion carried.
The motion to revoke the business license of U.S.
Engines then carried.

-----------------------------------------
Subject: DR. KRONISCH WEST HILL PROPERTY - FISCAL NOTE
C ator: Tony MCCARTHY / KENT70/FN Dated: 08/28/91 at 1627.
THE PARKS DEPARTMENT PRESENTED A COPY OF THE LETTER RECEIVED FROM
DR. KRONISCH OFFERING TO SELL THE CITY HIS 2 1/2 LOTS ON WEST HILL
FOR A FUTURE PARK SITE. THE PARKS DEPARTMENT NOTED THAT THERE ARE
NO CURRENT FUNDS AVAILABLE TO PURCHASE THE LOTS.
IBC APPRECIATES DR. KRONISCH OFFER TO SELL HIS LOTS AS A FUTURE PARK BUT
RECOMMENDS STAYING WITHIN THE CURRENT BUDGET. THE ONLY FUNDING FOR WEST HILL
IS CURRENTLY BEING USED TO PURCHASE PARKSIDE WETLANDS. DURING THE 1992-1997
CIP PROCESS, THE PARKS DEPARTMENT PRIORTIZED NEIGHBORHOOD PARKS AS #20 AND
WEST HILL PARKS AS #23. WITH THIS LOWER RATING, FUNDS ARE NOT CURRENTLY
INCLUDED IN THE PLANNED CIP WHICH HAS NO SOURSE OF FUNDING DO TO A DOWNTURN
IN THE ECONOMY.
THOUGH DR. KRONISCH HAS OFFERED A DEFFERED PAYMENT PLAN OF $75,000 IN 5 YEARS
AT A REDUCED INTEREST RATE OF 4.55%, THE IBC RECOMMENDS AGAINST APPROVAL.
SURELY THE CITY CAN COME UP WITH THIS SMALL AMOUNT BUT AT WHAT IMPACT ON OTHER
PROJECTS AND PROCESSES. OUR CURRENT REVENUE PROJECTIONS SHOW THE CITY MUST
COVER A 6 MILLION DOLLAR GENERAL FUND SHORTFALL IN 1992 AND WE CAN NOT PROJECT
A TURNAROUND IN OUR 4 YEAR FORECAST. TO HELP COVER FOR THIS SHORTFALL WE HAVE
RESCINDED A NUMBER OF 1991 BUDGETED CIP PROJECTS AND HAVE NOT FUNDED ANY
GENERAL CIP PROJECTS FOR 1992. THIS IN ADDITION TO A HIRING FREEZE AND OTHER
DEPARTMENT CUTS.

FROM: Barney Wilson��1
PREPARED BY: Helen Wickstrom
SUBJECT: WEST HILL PARK ACQUISITION (DR. KRONISCH SITE)
Dr. David Kronisch and his wife, Mary Ann, have offered to sell 2-
1/2 lots on West Hill for a small park. He will sell the property,
assessed at $92,900 for $75,000 with $500 down and the balance due
February 2, 1997. Interest on the note shall accrue at the rate of
4.55 percent (4.55%) per annum which is two percent below the best
rate the City can obtain.
In his letter offering the property for sale, Dr. Kronisch states
that he formerly practiced medicine in the West Hill Plaza Shopping
Center and had purchased the property to build his own medical
clinic. Since retiring six years ago, he has noticed a
degeneration of the area and feels revitalization of the area is
mandatory. Since children cross his property to get to Sunnycrest
Elementary, he feels it would be a great start to revitalizing the
area by creating a small park for the area. For that reason, he
will sell the property below market value and delay receiving
payment for over five years.
Both the Parks Committee and the Operations Committee unanimously
voted to acquire this site.
A map of the area is attached.

PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT - ZCA-91-1
Laura Yeats presented the staff report on Planned Unit Developments
(PUDs) which are a provision within the Zoning Code to allow
creativity and flexibility in site design. PUDs are permitted in
all zoning districts except the A-1, Agricultural, zone at this
time. In all districts, the principally permitted uses,
conditional uses and accessory uses are the same as those in the
underlying zoning district with two exceptions:
A. In single family residential zoning districts (RA and R1),
attached side -by -side (not vertically stacked) residential
units may be permitted in a PUD.
B. In residential PUDs of ten (10) acres or more, commercial uses
may be permitted. Commercial uses shall be limited to those
uses permitted in the Neighborhood Convenience District.
Kent Planning Commission
August 26, 1991
At issue is whether the City should encourage the development of
attached units in single family zoning districts as stated in
exception "A".
The following major changes were made to the PUD ordinance in 1987:
A. The review time was shortened by allowing other land use
processes to be consolidated with the PUD review.
B. The requirement that each residential PUD consist of all
housing types was dropped in favor of a density bonus
incentive that encourages a mix of housing types.
C. Density bonuses were made much clearer than before.
It was unanimously recommended by the Planning Committee that the
City council adopt the revised PUD ordinance and it went into
effect in August of 1988. since the adoption of the new ordinance,
one PUD has been approved and is now under construction.
PUD regulations establish the following minimum development
standards:
A. PUDs in RA and R1 districts must be a minimum of 5 acres.
B. The minimum perimeter building setback of the underlying
zoning district applies. In addition, if a PUD proposed in an
RA or R1 district includes attached units, the Multifamily
Transition Area setback requirements apply.
C. The maximum height of the underlying zoning district applies.
In addition, if a PUD proposed in an RA or R1 district
includes attached units, the Multifamily Transition area
height requirements apply.
D. Residential PUDs must provide a minimum of 35 percent of the
total site area for common open space.
E. PUDs are not required to meet the minimum lot size
requirements of the underlying zoning district. This provides
flexibility in site design by allowing units to be clustered
together which aids in the provision of additional amenities
such as common open space, preservation of unique natural
features and on -site storm water drainage control.
F. The density of the PUD is determined by the gross density of
the underlying zoning district. However, the Hearing Examiner
can recommend up to 20 percent greater density if the PUD
2
Kent Planning Commission
August 26, 1991
proposal provides amenities or design features as outlined in
the PUD Density Bonus Standards.
In October, 1989, the Mayor's Advisory Committee on Single Family
Housing cited "attached singles" as a viable alternative to the
detached dwelling in meeting the changing trends in households and
homeownership. These residences earn the title "attached singles",
rather than multifamily, by their ability to coexist and/or
harmonize with single family detached homes.
In June of 1990, the City Council received a petition from the
Responsible Urban Growth Group (RUGG) requesting that the City
Council consider revisions to the PUD ordinance which would require
all housing units to be detached, single family units. Attached,
side -by -side units would no longer be allowed.
The following alternatives to the existing PUD regulations were
developed to address the concern over multifamily development
(attached singles) in the RA and R1 Single Family zoning districts.
A. Increase the minimum site acreage for RA and R1 zoning
districts.
B. Modify the exception to ensure harmony with adjacent single
family neighborhoods. For example, the number of attached
units per structure or the number of attached units as a
percentage of total units could be limited.
C. Establish site design guidelines if attached units are
incorporated in single family PUDs. This would establish
guidelines for site configuration of attached units.
D. In RA and R1 zones, eliminate Density Bonus Standard #6, Mixed
Housing Types, which states that "a two percent density bonus
may be authorized if a development features a mix of
residential housing types".
E. In RA and R1 zones, develop a new Bonus Standard allowing
attached units and/or increased density when specific
amenities are provided. These amenities could include
additional landscape buffers, additional five percent open
space, perimeter lots which would be permanently retained as
single family detached units, or attached units with staggered
floor plans to emphasize individual units.
F. Remove "Exception - All which allows attached units in single
family zones.
3
Kent Planning Commission
August 26, 1991
G. No change to existing PUD regulations.
H. Eliminate PUDs in RA and R1 single family residential zones.
This would, however, eliminate the potential for providing a
mix of housing types which was a goal of the PUD.
Arnold E. Hamilton, 25410 113th Avenue SE, Kent, asked why we were
talking about allowing multifamily in R1 zoning, which is single
family. He feels that this gives developers the opportunity to
cram more houses into smaller areas.
Chair Faust asked Mr. Hamilton which of the alternatives he
preferred. Mr. Hamilton said he was in favor of alternative H.
Kevin Flatt, 11224 SE 256th Street, Kent, agreed with Mr. Hamilton
that R1 is for single family detached dwellings and attached single
units seem to be a violation of the atmosphere of single family
residences. Since the mix need not include every type of housing,
there is a distinct possibility that there could be no single
family at all in PUDs. He felt that the open space would be land
that was simply unusable. Mr. Flatt recommended alternative H.
Chair Faust asked if Mr. Flatt would consider, as an alternative,
limiting the number of multifamily structures that could be built
in a PUD and making sure that they were clustered toward the middle
of the PUD. Mr. Flatt felt that that sounded better, but there was
still no assurance that there would be genuine open space that was
usable. He felt that the potential for abuse still existed.
Commissioner Haylor asked if Mr. Flatt felt the PUD would be a good
idea in multifamily areas. Mr. Flatt said it was an excellent idea
for multifamily zoned areas.
Jim Orr, 24909 114th Avenue SE, Kent, said he does not support
alternatives A, B, C, D, E or G for the following reasons. By
increasing the minimum site acreage, the potential for PUDs in Kent
would be decreased now, but as annexations occur, people living in
single family zones could find themselves with multifamily
neighborhoods. Allowing buildings up to four units in size hardly
fits in with single family and could not be considered low density
single family. Alternative C would help protect existing single
family neighborhoods, but would still add more multifamily to a
City that is near 70 percent multifamily now. Eliminating the
Density Bonus doesn't go far enough to protect existing
neighborhoods. He doesn't believe there is any need for further
density increases no matter what amenities are provided.
Alternative H would be his first choice and alternative F would be
his second choice.
4
Kent Planning Commission
August 26, 1991
Commissioner Ward asked if Mr. Orr had any suggestions to provide
an alternate in the R1 area and if he felt one of the reasons we
haven't had PUDs in the past is because of general feeling in the
community that no deviation from R1 zoning would be publicly
received.
Mr. Orr felt that the reason there were no PUDs in the past is
because developers have been too busy building apartments. Now
that there is no apartment land left, PUDs are the next
alternative.
Commissioner Grant asked Mr. Orr if he had any feelings on lot
size. Mr. Orr felt that lot size should be no less than 7,200
square feet.
Commissioner Haylor asked if Mr. Orr felt a PUD in his neighborhood
would lower the value of his home. Mr. Orr felt it definitely
would.
Chair Faust asked if Mr. Orr was saying he didn't want PUDs at all
in single family areas, even if all the homes are single family
homes. Mr. Orr felt that when homeowners buy 7,200 square foot
lots, they want other homes in their neighborhood to be on minimum
7,200 square foot lots.
Steve Babbitt, 945 E. Maple Street, Kent, thought the Planning
Department had done a very thorough investigation in presenting
their report. He disagreed with everyone who spoke before him. He
was very much in favor of flexibility in guidelines for developers
provided there is a design review. His preference was alternative
C.
He was very much in favor of 5,000 square foot lots and felt that
some of the most attractive areas of any town are the older,
historical areas where lot sizes are very small.
He felt that alternative A would, in effect, outlaw PUDs because
there are not that many 10 acre sites left in Kent.
He also pointed out other alternatives besides those mentioned,
such as small lot singles, zero lot line subdivisions, cluster
subdivisions, and accessory units.
Elbert R. Sanders, 10925 SE 244th Street, Kent, asked if a PUD
could be approved which would allow single family housing to be
torn down and if a PUD puts more family units in an amount of
acreage than single family, single house units would.
Lauri Anderson of the Planning Department said a PUD could be
5
Kent Planning Commission
August 26, 1991
approved that involved the tearing down of single family, just as
any development could be approved that might eliminate an already
existing structure. In answer to the second question, Ms. Anderson
said that a PUD allows the density based on gross acreage, rather
than net acreage, so the potential is there for more units.
Mr. Sanders supported alternative H. When he moved to Kent, he
felt the mix was supposed to be 70% single to 30% multifamily. He
wanted a quality of life in a single family, established
neighborhood that gave his family certain services that you come to
expect from that. This quality of life has eroded so far that he
cannot live here any more. People must have enough room to live.
He felt that if the parcel size were increased to ten acres, you
could do a lot more planning and could provide more facilities for
the people.
Chair Faust asked if Mr. Sanders would be in favor of design
guidelines to make sure the units at least look like single family
and to encourage diversity. Mr. Sanders did not feel he could
support this because of the density of family units that would be
put in a given acreage.
Commissioner Ward MOVED to close the public hearing.
Commissioner Heineman SECONDED the motion. Motion carried.
Commissioner Grant MOVED that the Planning Commission adopt
alternative H which would eliminate PUDs in RA and R1 single family
residential zones. Commissioner Heineman SECONDED the motion.
Commissioner Grant pointed out that four of the five people who
spoke were in favor of alternative H. Also, a year ago, over 1,600
people signed a petition that said they wanted all housing units to
be detached, single family dwelling units, no longer allow attached
side -by -side units and establish a minimum lot size of 7,200 square
feet.
Commissioner Morrill asked staff if they knew how many 10 acre
sites there are now in the RA or R1 zoning districts which could
potentially be PUD sites. Ms. Yeats said that in R1 there are 35
sites of 5 acres or more and 11 sites that are 10 acres or more.
In RA there are 34 sites that are 5 acres or more and 19 sites that
are 10 acres or more, but many of those are on the valley floor and
may not be suitable for residential development because of
wetlands.
Chair Faust stated a preference for alternative F. She felt that
would prevent multifamily in single family areas, but would still
L
Kent Planning Commission
August 26, 1991
allow a developer some flexibility to create a single family
neighborhood using the landscape and creativity in putting the
houses on the land.
Commissioner Grant's motion to adopt alternative H was carried.
PLANNING COMMISSION RETREAT
Regarding the Planning Commission Retreat on September 7,
James Harris told the Commissioners that it will begin at 8:00 A.M.
and will be held in the Senior Center. There will be a facilitator
who will lead the Commission through some exercises to get them
geared into some common goals. Chair Faust pointed out the
importance of this retreat because of the number of new
Commissioners. The retreat will help them understand what the
Commission is for and how it fits into the world at large.

STAFF REPORT
FOR THE PLANNING COMMISSION PUBLIC HEARING ON AUGUST 26, 1991
II.
PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT REGULATIONS
ISSUE
The Planned Unit Development (PUD) is a provision within the
Zoning Code intended to promote diversity and creativity in
site design and to protect and enhance natural and community
features. It is a flexible process designed to promote
developments that will be beneficial to Kent citizens.
Current regulations permit PUDs in all zoning districts except
A-1 Agricultural. In all districts, the principally permitted
uses, conditional uses and accessory uses in PUDs are the same
as those in the underlying zoning district with two
exceptions:
A. In single family residential zoning districts (RA and R1)
attached side by side (not vertically stacked)
residential units may be permitted in a PUD.
B. In residential PUDs of ten (10) acres or more, commercial
uses may be permitted. Commercial uses shall be limited
to those uses permitted in the Neighborhood Convenience
District.
At issue is whether the City should encourage the development
of attached units in single family zoning districts as stated
in "A" above.
In mid-1987, the Planning Commission recommended to the City
Council that a new PUD ordinance be adopted. The Council
referred this recommendation to the Planning Committee. In
April of 1988, the Planning Committee formed a citizen
committee to review the Planning Commission's draft ordinance.
The major recommended changes to the ordinance can be
summarized as follows:
A. Review time shortened. A PUD application can be approved
by the Hearing Examiner without moving on to the City
Council except on an appeal. Also, other land use
processes, such as conditional use permits, may be
consolidated with the PUD review.
1
B. Housing mix. The requirement that each residential PUD
consist of all types of housing was dropped in favor of
a density bonus incentive that encourages a mix of
housing types.
C. Density bonuses more refined. The process for
determining residential density bonuses is better defined
and the design objectives of PUDs are clearer than
before.
On July 19, 1988, the Council's Planning Committee unanimously
recommended to the full Council that the PUD Citizen Advisory
Committee's proposed draft of the PUD ordinance be adopted.
The Council accepted the recommendation on August 16, 1988 and
Ordinance 2802 was adopted.
since the adoption of the new ordinance, one Planned Unit
Development, Dover Place, has been approved and is now under
construction. The development consists of 38 detached single
family homes and common open space.
In June of 1990, the City Council received a petition from the
Responsible Urban Growth -Group (RUGG) which requested that the
City Council consider revisions to the PUD ordinance as
follows:
A. Require all housing units be detached, single family
units. No longer allow attached, side -by -side units.
B. Establish a minimum lot size of 7,200 square feet.
On July 16, 1991, the City Council directed the Planning
Commission to look at the Planned Unit Development regulations
in terms of the existing provision that allows attached
townhouses to be constructed in single family zoning
districts.
III. EXISTING PUD REGULATIONS
Purpose and objectives:
Chapter 15.04.080 of the Kent Zoning Code states: "The intent
of the PUD is to create a process to promote diversity and
creativity in site design, and protect and enhance natural and
community features. The process is provided to encourage
unique developments which may combine a mixture of
residential, commercial, and industrial uses. By using
flexibility in the application of development standards, this
process will promote development that will benefit citizens
that live and work within the City of Kent."
N
The balance of this report will only address the potential of
a PUD in the RA, Residential Agricultural, and R1, Single
Family Residential, zoning districts.
Development standards:
As previously mentioned, the principally permitted uses,
conditional uses and accessory uses of the underlying
residential zoning district apply to the PUD. The PUD
regulations establish minimum development standards for the
following:
Site acreage•
PUDs in RA and R1 districts must be a minimum of 5 acres.
Perimeter building setback:
The minimum perimeter building setback of the underlying
zoning district applies:
RA
R1
Front yard:
20
ft.
20
ft.
Side yard:
15
ft.
5
ft.
Rear yard:
20
ft.
8
ft.
Side yard(corner):
20
ft.
15
ft.
In addition, if a PUD proposed in an RA or R1 district
includes attached units, the Multifamily Transition Area
setback requirements apply:
A. The setbacks relate to the classification of the
adjacent street.
1. On an arterial or collector street, the
minimum setback is 20 feet and the average is
40 feet.
2. On a local access street, the minimum setback
is 20 feet and the average is 30 feet.
B. If the multifamily proposal abuts a Single Family
zoning district, the setback is a minimum of 20
feet and an average of 40 feet.
Maximum height•
The maximum height of the underlying zoning district
applies --two and one-half (2z) stories not exceeding 35
feet in the case of the RA and R1 zoning districts.
3
In addition, if a PUD proposed in a RA or Rl district
includes attached units, the Multifamily Transition Area
height requirements apply:
The maximum height of any structure within a
Multifamily Transition Area shall not exceed two
stories or 25 feet at the minimum setback line.
The building height may be increased one foot in
height for each additional foot of horizontal
setback from the minimum setback line, up to the
maximum limit for the underlying zoning district.
Open space:
Residential PUDs must provide a minimum of 35 percent of
the total site area for common open space.
Minimum lot size:
Planned Unit Developments are not required to meet the
minimum lot size requirements of the underlying zoning
district. In residential PUDs, this provides flexibility
in site design by allowing dwelling units to be clustered
together on smaller lots. Flexible site design aids in
the provision of additional amenities such as common open
space for both active and passive use, preservation of
unique natural features, and on -site storm water drainage
control, among others.
Density:
The density of a Planned Unit Development is determined
by the gross density of the underlying zoning district.
However, the Hearing Examiner may recommend up to 20
percent greater density if the PUD proposal provides
amenities or design features as outlined in the PUD
Density Bonus Standards. Bonuses can be attained with
the provision of active and passive open space, on -site
storm drainage control, and retention of native
vegetation, among others. Density Bonus Standard #6 -
Mixed Housing Types, allows for a two percent density
bonus if a development features a mix of residential
housing types. Single family residences, attached single
units, condominiums, apartments, and townhomes are
examples of housing types.
Additional development standards for street paving widths,
pedestrian circulation, landscaping, signs, view protection,
shoreline use, etc., are addressed in the appropriate City of
Kent regulations, i.e., Zoning Code, Subdivision Code,
Shoreline Master Program and the Green River Corridor Special
Interest District.
n
IV. ATTACHED DWELLING UNITS
The Report of the Mayor's Advisory Committee on Single Family
Housing (October, 1989) cites "Attached Singles" as a viable
alternative to the detached dwelling in meeting the changing
trends in households and homeownership. These residences earn
the title "attached singles", rather than multifamily, by
their ability to coexist and/or harmonize with single family
detached homes.
When attached singles are developed as townhouses
(horizontally, not vertically stacked units), there are ways
to develop them to "fit" within a single family neighborhood.
One method is to design the residence so that it takes on the
character of a large estate home. Multiple entrances and
garages can be offset and/or disguised. Another method is to
make each individual unit distinct by staggering the floor
plans to make it clear from the street where one unit ends and
the next begins.
V. ALTERNATIVES AND PLANNING DEPARTMENT REVIEW
The following is a list of alternatives to the existing PUD
regulations to address the concern over multifamily
development (attached singles) in the RA and R1 Single Family
zoning districts. The alternatives may be considered
separately or in combination with one another. Each of the
alternatives has the objective of meeting the stated purpose
of the Planned Unit Development.
Alternatives A through E assume that the exception allowing
attached dwelling units in Single Family zoned PUDs is
retained and/or modified, while Alternative F suggests the
exception be removed from the regulations.
A. Increase the minimum site acreage for RA and R1 zoning
Districts.
This alternative would retain the exception allowing
attached dwellings in single family zoned PUDs, but would
reduce the potential for this type of development to
occur. The existing minimum required is 5 acres. If the
minimum site acreage was increased to 10 acres, this
would reduce the number of parcels available for
development of a PUD.
B. Modify the exception to ensure harmony with adjacent
single family neighborhoods.
Sample exception:
P
1. In single family residential zoning districts (RA
and R1) attached side by side (not vertically
stacked) residential units may be permitted in a
PUD provided:
a. The number of attached units is limited to 50
percent of the total units, and
b. Attached units are not to exceed four units
per structure.
By limiting the percent of attached singles to occur, the
PUD will attain the scale and character of low -density,
single family neighborhoods, yet provide the desired mix
of housing types to meet a variety of needs.
Limiting the size of structures to contain only two or
three units each minimizes the bulk of structures and
also aids in attaining a low -density, single family
environment.
C. Establish site design guidelines if attached units are
incorporated in single family PUDs.
The existing PUD regulations permit attached units in
single family districts, but the regulations do not
establish guidelines for site configuration if attached
units are going to be incorporated. The Multifamily
Transition Area guidelines begin to address site layout
by increasing the setbacks and requiring the height of
the buildings to be lower at the setback line (the
maximum height of any structure within a Multifamily
Transition Area cannot exceed two stories or 25 feet at
the minimum setback line.)
Example site design guideline for attached units:
1. If the proposed PUD abuts a single family
neighborhood, the attached units shall be limited
to the interior of the lot and shall be screened by
detached units around the perimeter of the PUD.
This type of transition from detached units to attached
is consistent with the general zoning pattern or gradient
of less dense to more dense housing types.
D. In RA and R1 zones, eliminate Density Bonus Standard #61
Mixed Housing Types.
The existing Density Bonus Standard states that "a two
percent density bonus may be authorized if a development
features a mix of residential housing types. Single
N.
family residences, attached single units, condominiums,
apartments, and townhomes are examples of housing types.
The mix need not include some of every type."
This bonus not only encourages the development of
attached units, but also allows increased density, which
may not be appropriate for single family zoning
districts.
E. In RA and R1 zones, develop a new Bonus Standard allowing
attached units and/or increased density when specific
amenities are provided.
Attached dwellings can often be developed at a lower cost
and, therefore, the developer may find it desirable to
provide additional amenities or design features to obtain
this increased density. In this alternative, the
"Exception All would be deleted and a new Bonus Standard
would be included.
Example Bonus Standard:
In RA and R1 zoning districts, attached units may be
permitted if any combination of the following amenities
or site design features are provided:
1. Additional 10 foot landscape buffer between
attached units and adjacent single family uses
outside the PUD.
2. Additional 5 percent open space for common use.
3. The perimeter lots of the PUD to be permanently
retained as single family detached units.
4. Attached units to have staggered floor plans to
emphasize individual units.
F. Remove "Exception - A.".... the provision that allows
attached units in single family zones.
This alternative would eliminate any potential for
attached units in RA or R1 zoning districts, possibly
defeating the City's intent to allow flexibility and a
mix of housing types through the PUD regulations.
It is conceivable that with the removal of the exception,
horizontally stacked units (townhouses) would rarely be
considered even with the density bonuses. As the
multifamily residential zoning districts allow vertically
stacked units (which would likely result in a higher
density than horizontally stacked units), the potential
7
developable units permitted outright in the multifamily
residential zoning districts (excluding MR-D), could
exceed the units attainable through the density bonus for
providing a mix of housing types in a PUD. In such
cases, the developer would be unlikely to build townhomes
if he/she were seeking maximum densities.
G. No change to existing Planned Unit Development
regulations.
This alternative would allow the potential for a Planned
Unit Development to remain as it is presently. A PUD
could occur in all zoning districts (except A-11
Agricultural) and PUDs in the RA and R1 zoning districts
could incorporate horizontally stacked units (attached
singles) into the development.
H. Eliminate Planned Unit Developments in RA and R1 single
family residential zones.
This alternative would retain the Planned Unit
Development provisions for all multifamily, commercial
and industrial zoning districts within which attached
units could occur. It would, however, eliminate the
potential for providing a mix of housing types through
attached units in the RA and Ri zoning districts, as well
as all of the other advantages of the PUD, including the
preservation of unique environmental features, provision
of more affordable housing, and other amenities like
passive and active open space.

At their September 17, 1991 meeting, the Council's Planning
Committee voted to recommend that the full City Council go on
record as opposing the proposed King County/METRO merger. After
discussion by the Committee, it was felt that the proposed merger
was different from that which was agreed upon by the City of
Seattle and suburban cities at the earlier Summit meetings.

Chair Johnson stated that the Suburban Cities Association has taken
the position that it will not now support the King County/Metro
merger. He stated that if the vote on the merger fails, the
suburban cities, City of Seattle, and King County would have to get
together and agree on new language prior to the state legislature
convening. There needs to be some common language which could be
taken to the state legislature for them to pass a law merging the
two entities. If the legislature fails to deal with the issue,
then Judge Dreyer will make the final decision.
Councilmember Orr MOVED and Councilmember Houser SECONDED a motion
to recommend that the City Council take a position against
supporting the King County Metro merger. Motion carried. The
Committee directed that this item go to full council on October 1
under other business.

1. SUBJECT: MOBILE HOME PARK CODE AMENDMENTS
2. SUMMARY STATEMENT: Amendments to the Mobile Home Park Code
include revisions related to accessory structures, and appeal
procedures for Building Official decisions. At the October 1,
1991 Council hearing, Council also approved amendments that
would allow recreational vehicles in mobile home parks as
permanent dwelling units. The City Attorney's review of the
amendments related to recreational vehicles has revealed
potential conflicts with state law on the subject, so these
amendments have been further revised.

Item No. 4D
M E M O R A N D U M
TO: City Council
FROM: City Attorney s Office
DATE: October 10, 1991
RE: Mobile Home Code Amendments
As originally drafted, the suggested amendments to the Mobile Home
Code permitted recreational vehicles to be placed in nonconforming
mobile home parks as permanent dwelling units" under certain
circumstances. A review of the law in the State of Washington on
the subject of mobile homes and recreational vehicles has disclosed
that while both are licensed by the state, only mobile homes are
constructed and regulated as permanent dwelling units. In
addition, there are detailed standards for installation of mobile
homes, which require that installers also be certified by the
state.
According to the people at the Department of Labor and Industries,
the reason no similar installation regulations exist for
recreational vehicles is because they are specifically not intended
to be, nor are they built to be, permanent dwelling units. The
Department has grave concerns about any local regulation that would
sanction recreational vehicles as "permanent dwelling units," since
they consider this to have the effect of legalizing a safety
hazard.
As a result, this Office has corresponding concerns about City
liability. Keeping in mind the intent of the proposed amendments,
this Office re -drafted the appropriate sections to permit mobile
home park owners the option of allowing recreational vehicles to
stay or be located within the mobile home park, subject to certain
fire separation standards. References to the use of recreational
vehicles as "permanent dwelling units," or the description of any
procedures for the review/approval by City staff of the permanent
installation of these vehicles have been deleted.

Washington, relating to mobile home parks,

Subject: Bid/Proposal Analysis and Recommendation
Dear Helen:
On Tuesday, October 8, 1991 at 10:00 AM (PST), Bid Proposals were received for construction
of one of the last remaining links in the Interurban Trail System - for that portion beginning at
Smith Street in downtown Kent and extending south over 2.6 miles to 285th Street in Auburn,
except for the Green River Bridge Crossing.
Five (5) Proposals were received prior to the closing time of 10:00 AM. One (1) additional
proposal was delivered some 12-14 minutes after the closing time and was treated as "non-
responsive."
A full copy of the Bid Tabulation Sheet is in your possession and has not been forwarded
herewith.
The proposal requirements included a "Base Bid Breakdown", a series of seven (7) DEDUCTIVE
Alternate Bid Items to accommodate possible high bid amounts; and eight (8) part ADD
Alternate Bid Item for various bridge configurations and materials of construction for a
"Pedestrian Foot Bridge" over a major wetlands area south of 277th Street. Only one (1) of the
eight (8) bridge possibilities may be accepted. Additionally, four (4) Unit Price Bid Items were
requested for possible use, where necessary, during the construction process.

Due to the favorable proposals received, the seven (7) deductive Alternate Bids do not need to
be considered. It is, however, necessary to add a Pedestrian Foot Bridge from those eight (8)
possibilities defined by Alternate Bid No. 5.
Based upon the preference advanced by representatives of both the City of Kent and the Auburn
Parks Departments, a 10-foot wide configuration with concrete deck forms the basis of analysis.

In order to bring this Projects construction costs comfortably below the available construction
dollar level, as we currently understand them to be, ORB is recommending that the City elect
to accept Alternate Bid No. 4, a deductive alternate which deletes all log barriers from the
Project. The barriers are located predominantly between Meeker Street and Willis Street, but not
totally. These barriers could be easily reincorporated back into the project at a later date.

Wickstrom explained that in order to dispose of surplus utility
equipment we must hold a public hearing and adopt a resolution
declaring the material surplus and offer it for sale to the highest
bidder. The Committee unanimously recommended approval to hold the
public hearing and adopt the resolution declaring the material
surplus.
Mrs. Rust commented about the disposition of the shelves in the old
library. Tony McCarthy explained that we have had vendors
submitting bids to -purchase the materials. Jim White asked about
the old furniture from the three departments that moved into the
Centennial Building. Tony McCarthy commented that other
departments took those items that could be used. We received bids
from used furniture dealers to purchase the remaining pieces of
furniture. Jim White asked if the City has a written inventory of
all the equipment and furniture. McCarthy stated that the
departments have submitted lists of their furniture and equipment.
As staffing levels and time permits, those will be inventoried.
Speed Limit Changes During Construction - Canyon Drive
Wickstrom explained that we are proposing to lower the speed limits
on Canyon Drive from 40 to 30 MPH during the construction period.
This ordinance will be on the Council's agenda for October 1. The
committee unanimously recommended approval to adopt the ordinance
lowering the speed limits.
Implementation of Street Occupation ordinance
Wickstrom distributed a draft list of recommended charges for those
issues addressed in the street occupation ordinance. The proposed
changes are based on what our administrative costs would be to
issue the permit. Some of the charges shown on the listing are
PUBLIC WORKS COMMITTEE

that charged by the City of Seattle. Staff is still working on
those items to determine the proper fee for Kent. Wickstrom stated
this is being presented to the Committee for their review at this
time and it will be brought back before the Committee for approval.
Dowell asked about the length of time the permit was good for.
Wickstrom commented it would depend upon what the application was
for. For instance, a banner might be for a week's period while a
sandwich board permit could be good for one year. Russ Stringham
asked about a second sign or whether a business owner is limited to
one sign. Wickstrom stated that each application would have to be
reviewed on its own merit since some locations could support a
second sign while others could not. Jim White asked if this
applied to all real estate signs. Wickstrom replied that the
ordinance referred to all signs in the public right of way.
Stringham commented that if the permit fee for real estate signs is
$75 the real estate companies will go ahead and put them up and let
the City take them down. Carol Morris stated that if this turns
out to be a problem, the present ordinance could be amended to
include a provision setting penalties for certain companies that
continue to violate. Stringham asked how the dimensions were
determined. John Bond stated that the ASHTO site criteria was
used. Ed White added these are nationally recognized standards.
Dowell asked if the people on Meeker street would be charged for
their awnings. Wickstrom commented that the ordinance does address
that use but we do not propose to go out on the streets to police
it. However,.if a complaint is brought to our attention, we will
have to address it based on the ordinance. Stringham raised
questions about the requirement of an indemnity bond and would a
sandwich board permit require a bond. He stated this would incur
more cost for the business owner. The certificate of insurance
will add another $200 a year to his insurance costs. He wondered
why both would be required. Carol Morris explained that each
application would have to be reviewed on its own merits as each
piece of property is unique. It was noted that the condition on
destruction of any confiscated signs should be consistent with the
ordinance. Jim White asked that this proposal be submitted to the
real estate people and downtown businesses for their comments. He
stated he is concerned about the costs from a business standpoint
but on the other side the City has the costs of administering the
ordinance and the potential liability. Dowell commented that the
public has to be aware that when Council adopts ordinances such as
this to meet specific needs, they are going to have to support the
costs involved. often times these ordinances require departments
to take on extra tasks for which they have either no staff or
funding. Jim White asked this be brought back to the Committee in
a couple of weeks.
