SUBJECT: BECK ANNEXATION AREA INITIAL ZONING#AZ-95-2 - CITY COUNCIL
HEARING
On June 20, 1995, the City Council held the second of their two public hearings on initial
zoning for the Beck annexation area. There was public testimony given at the hearing, and
several written exhibits offered as well. Because several of the written exhibits were submitted
to the Council immediately prior to the meeting, giving neither Council nor staff the opportunity
to review them, the hearing was continued to the July 5 City Council meeting.
Both the written and oral public testimony before the City Council concerns the zoning for
parcels located on the west side of 94th Avenue South. The Planning Commission recommended
that these areas be zoned R1-20, as shown on the attached map. Public testimony received by
the City Council on this issue has been mixed. Testimony was received from property owners
on the west side of 94th Avenue, one of whom asked for R1-12 zoning, while others requested
R1-7.2 zoning. Property owners on the east side of 94th Avenue South testified in favor of the
Planning Commission's recommendation.
In the staff report prepared for the Planning Commission's hearing on April 24, 1995, staff
recommended that the zoning on the west side of 94th Avenue South be R1-12 (see Alternative
2 in the staff report). Staff feels that this zoning designation recognizes that need to protect the
hillside with a lower density zoning designation than is being recommended for the east side of
94th Avenue South, but would allow more development potential than the R1-20 zoning being
recommended by the Planning Commission. Staff cannot support R1-7.2 zoning in that area,
due to the steep slopes, particularly on the northwestern portion of the annexation area.
Therefore, staff recommends that the area west of 94th Avenue be zoned R1-12, as outlined in
Alternative 2 of the staff report to the Planning Commission.
Planning Department staff will be available at the July 5 hearing to further explain the
recommended zoning for the Beck annexation area.

MEMORANDUM
April 17, 1995
TO: KENT MORRILL, CHAIR, AND MEMBERS OF THE PLANNING
COMMISSION
FROM: KEVIN O'NEILL, SENIOR PLANNER
SUBJECT: PROPOSED BECK ANNEXATION AREA INITIAL ZONING rAZ-95-2
Introduction
In February of 1995, the City Council approved the annexation of the area known as the Beck
Annexation Area into the City of Kent. This area, which is approximately 218 acres, is
generally located north of South 240th Street adjacent to 94th Avenue South (by approximately
1250 feet to the east and 600 feet to the west of 94th Avenue), extending northerly to
approximately South 222nd Street (see attached Vicinity Map). The subject area is south of the
recently annexed Everson and Jones/Hobbs annexation areas. Zoning for the Everson annexation
area was approved by the City Council in September, 1994, while zoning for the Jones/Hobbs
annexation area is currently being considered by the Council.
Subsequent to the annexation of the Beck annexation area by the City, the entire area was zoned
R1-20 (Single-Family Residential), pursuant to Section 15.03.020(E)(2) of the Kent Zoning
Code. The purpose of this process is to establish initial zoning for the annexation area, as
outlined in Section 15.09.055 of the Zoning Code.
This report will outline background information on the area, including the previous zoning of
the area while it was still located in unincorporated King County. The report will then outline
three alternatives for zoning of the area for the Planning Commission's consideration at the April
24 hearing.
Existing Land Uses
The entire annexation area is characterized by low density single-family residential development.
The majority of parcels both within and adjacent to the annexation area are larger than one acre,
and several of the parcels are larger than four acres. There are two recently platted subdivisions
located within the annexation area: Wildberry, with lot sizes averaging approximately 9,500
square feet, and Rosemary Glen, with lot sizes averaging approximately 13,500 square feet. Lot
sizes are larder in the Rosemary Glen subdivision due to the topography in this area. The areas
to the west of the annexation area are developed as multi-family residential uses, and the area
MEMO TO: Ken Morrill, Chair, and Planning Commission Members
SUBJECT: Annexation Area Initial Zoning #AZ-95-9.,
PAGE 2
to the south area developed with single-family residential development with lot sizes ranging
approximately from 7,200 square feet to 10,000 square feet. The areas to the east and north of
the annexation area are generally characterized with low density single-family development. The
attached vicinity map shows parcel lines in the annexation area and in the surrounding vicinity.
Environmental Constraints
The annexation area is distinguished for the most part by moderate west-facing slopes.
However, the western portion of the annexation area to the west of 94th Avenue South has
slopes well in excess of 25 percent, and a large portion of this area is designated as a Severe
Hazard Area on the City's Hazard Area Development Limitations map. The zoning code does
not allows any impervious surfaces in areas designated as Severe Hazard Areas, which means
that these areas cannot be developed. Also, the eastern and northeastern portions of the
annexation area are intersected by both Benson Creek and the south fork of Garrison Creek.
Both Benson Creek and Garrison Creek are designated as major creeks on the Kent Hazard Area
Development Limitations map, and are designated as Class II salmonid creeks in the Soos Creek
Community Plan. The steep slopes adjacent to Garrison Creek are designated as ravines on the
Hazard Area Limitation map, and as Seismic Hazard and Erosion Hazard areas in the Soos
Creek Community Plan. Under the City of Kent zoning code, no impervious surfaces are
allowed within 75 feet from the top of a ravine or 50 feet from a major creek. These
requirements will also limit development opportunities on some of the parcels located within the
annexation area.
The parcels within and surrounding the annexation area are heavily vegetated with ground shrubs
and trees, many of which are significant trees, meaning that they have a caliper of 6 inches or
greater. There do not appear to be any wetlands in the vicinity; however, surface water
management will likely be a significant issue for any new development in the area, due to the
slopes and proximity to Benson and Garrison Creek.
Previous King Countv Zoning
Prior to being annexed to the City of Kent, and subject area was located within the Soos Creek
Community Planning area in King County. The Soos Creek Community Plan, and
accompanying area zoning, were adopted by the King County Council in 1991.
The previous King County zoning for most of the subject area was GR-S-P, Growth Reserve,
with an underlying zoning of RS-7200-P. The areas which were already subdivided were zoned
RS-7200-P. The GR-5 zoning district was an interim zoning district permitted one unit per five
acres until December 31, 1994, at which time the underlying zoning west into effect. In this
case, the underlying zoning is RS-7200 zoning. GR-5 zoning was applied in the Soos Creek
Community Plan to all undeveloped and underdeveloped land located adjacent to an incorporated
MEMO TO: ent Morrill, Chair, and Planning Commission Members
SUBJECT: rnexation Area Initial Zoning #AZ-95z
PAGE 3
city. The RS-7200 zoning district allowed one unit per 7,200 square feet of land, and is
g district within the City of Kent. The P-suffix in the previous
comparable to the R1-7.2 zonin
King County zoning refers to specific requirements regarding environmental protection and
development standards.
In early February, 1995, new zoning went into effect for King County, based on the newly
ensive Plan. Under the newly adopted zoning code, the Beck
adopted King County Compreh
annexation area was zoned R-6. The R-6 zoning designation allows six units per acre, which
is roughly equivalent to the previous zoning of RS-7200. However, the development regulations
for the R-6 zone, such as minimum lot width, were changed under the new designation.
Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Analysis
The subject area is designated as Single Family 1-8 units per acre in the Soos Creek Community
Plan, and as Urban Residential 4-12 units per acre in the newly adopted King County
Comprehensive Plan. The Kent Comprehensive Plan designates the subject area as Single
Family, while the East Hill Subarea Plan designates the area as SF 6, which allows single-family
residential development at densities of four-to-six units per acre. The East Hill Plan also
designates the area along Garrison Creek as Constrained Areas, which are defined as areas
classified as environmentally sensitive due to natural hazards (landslide, seismic, erosion, and
flooding potential) and areas which support unique, fragile or valuable resources.
The property surrounding the subject area is characterized by a variety of zoning designations.
The land to the west of the subject area is generally zoned for multifamily residential uses, with
the steep hillsides along the western edge of the subject area providing separation between th e
parcels .in the annexation area and the multifamily developments to the west. The areas
surrounding the subject property to the south, east and north are zoned for single-family
residential use, with the predominant zoning being either R1-9.6 or R1-7.2.
Zoning Alternatives
Three zoning alternatives are presented below for the subject area. All alternatives show the
area being zoned as single-family residential, which is consistent with both the City of Kent and
King County Comprehensive Plans. The difference between the alternatives relates to the
density of single-family development which would be permitted in the area. The zoning
alternatives are shown on the attached maps.
Alternative 1
This alternative would simply convert the previous King County zoning of R6 to the Kent zoning
designation of R1-7.2 for the entire annexation area. This alternative would be the most similar
MEMO TO: KeOt i orrill, Chair, and Planning Commission Members
SUBJECT: � krinexation Area Initial Zoning #AZ-95,
PAGE 4
to the previous King County zoning. However, it would also place R1-7.2 zoning on parcels
located on the western edge of the annexation area with very steep slopes.
Alternative 2
In this alternative the western edge of the annexation area would be designated R1-12, while the
remainder of the area would be designated as R1-7.2. The proposed zoning of R1-12 on the
western edge of the area would reflect the steep slopes in this area.
Alternative 3
This alternative is similar to Alternative 2, except that the most extreme slopes along the western
edge of the property (those areas designated as Severe Hazard Areas) would be designated Rl-
20, with the southwestern portion of the area being zoned R1-12. As in the first two
alternatives, the remainder of the area would be zoned R1-7.2.
Summary
Each of the alternatives is designed around zoning most, or all, of the annexation area R1-7.2.
This is in recognition of the extensive process that has gone on in zoning this area since 1990,
through both the Soos Creek Community Plan and the recently adopted King County
development code amendments. Alternatives 2 and 3, however, propose zoning the western
portion for lower densities, due to the steep slopes in this area. It has been the City's practice
in the past to zone environmentally constrained areas for lower densities. There are also some
constrained areas in the northeastern portion of the area; however, this area has already been
platted, and the subdivision was designed with larger lots to acknowledge the topography of the
area. Since this area has already been built, it is proposed to be designated R1-7.2 to be
consistent with the previous King County zoning.
Staff Recommendation
Staff recommends that the Planning Commission recommend to the City Council the zoning
designation outlined in Alternative 2 for the Beck Annexation Area.

April 24, 1995
Chair Morrill commented that each of the Commissioners, if they so wished, could submit a
minority report to the City Council. Chair Morrill requested that a minority report be prepared
for his signature. Commissioner Nuss requested that her name be added to the report.
The hearing was closed at 7:30 PM.
BECK ANNEXATION ZONING #AZ-95-2
Kevin O'Neill, Planning Department, presented the Beck annexation zoning report. Mr. O'NeiIl
gave a brief history of the area. A viewfoil was shown depicting the location of the potential
annexation and the topography of the area. This area was originally in King County's Soos
Creek Community planning area. There are three zoning alternatives recommended by staff: {
I
Alternative 1: This alternative would simply convert the previous King County zoning
of R6 to the Kent zoning designation of R1-7.2 for the entire annexation
area.
Alternative 2: In this alternative the western edge of the annexation area would be
designated RI-12 while the remainder of the area would be designated Rl-
7.2.v
Alternative 3: This alternative is similar to Alternative 2, except that the most extreme
slopes along the western edge of the property would be designated R1-20,
with the southwester portion of the area being zoned R1-12. The
remainder of the area would be zoned R1-7.2.
Staff recommended Alternative 2.
Chair Morrill called for public comment.
ROBERT KIGA, 9440 S. 233rd Place, Kent, WA 98031, commented his major concern with
development along 94th Avenue S. is the availability of a wide enough road. Presently 94th
Avenue narrows as it migrates towards James Street. He felt the road should be widened if
there is any development in the area.
JUDITH MCDOUGALL, 23405 94TH AVENUE S., Kent, WA 98031, commented she lives
on the west side of 94th. Ms. McDougall stated 94th is not wide enough to handle any traffic.
THEODORE POLK, 24415 64TH AVENUE S., KENT, WA 98031, asked if the zoning R1-
12, allows one residence per acre.
#ZCA-95-1 Adult Use Zoning
NAZ-95-2 Beck Annexation Zoning 4
Kent Planning Commission
April 24, 1995
Mr. O'Neill commented R1-12 allows one dwelling unit per 12,000 square feet or about three
and a half units per acre.
JIM MUIR, 23007 96TH AVENUE S., KENT, WA 98031, asked what was the difference
between the County's zoning and the City's.
Mr. O'Neill explained that under King County's development regulations, R-6 zoning means six
units per acre. The units can be placed anywhere on the site as long as. the minimum
development standards are met. However, Kent's R1-7.2 means each lot needs'to be at least
7,200 square feet. As the Commission is aware, the staff is reviewing policies in its
Comprehensive Plan to support lot averaging and clustering. A proposal concerning this type
of development will be brought to the Commission next month for consideration.
Mr. Muir commented that if lot averaging was allowed, either alternative 2 or 3 would be
acceptable.
AMY FORBIS, 23306 94TH COURT S., KENT WA 98031, commented she is against lot
clustering or more multifamily construction in the area. She recommends that the Commission
adopt alternative 3.
MIKE ROBINSON, 9409 S. 232ND, KENT, WA 98031, was not in favor of any of the
alternatives. He felt the lots should be larger. Mr. Robinson thought that the area should be
zoned R1-20.
No further public comments were made.
Chair Morrill requested Kevin O'Neill respond to some of the questions asked by the public.
Mr. O'Neill commented that 94th Avenue is currently widest in the areas adjacent to existing
plats. As additional properties bordering 94th Avenue develop, road widening would take place.
Mr. O'Neill wasn't aware of any City plans to independently widen the road at this time.
Mr. O'Neill reiterated that the Comprehensive Plan cluster housing proposal has not been
considered by the Planning Commission. He remarked that it is not the intent of the "clustering"
proposal to allow multifamily as part of the clustering development. The use of the land would
be single family but the way the units would be configured on the property would allow more
flexibility in development.
Commissioner Stringham asked if the area was zoned R1-20 could it potentially create problems
for those property owners whose property is currently less than 20,000 square feet in size.

Kent Planning Commission
April 24, 1995
Mr. O'Neill stated that if the property was zoned R1-20, any lots that would be less than 20,000
square feet in size would be considered legal nonconforming.
Mr. O'Neill explained that staff is recommending Alternative ##2 because there is already R1-12
zoning in place to the north of this area. Staff tries not to create disjointed zoning designations.
There is no R1-20 zoning directly bordering this area. This area has very steep slopes and the
parcels that have steep slopes will be difficult to develop regardless of the zoning designation
because of the City's current hazard area regulations. The intent of the R1-12 zoning
designation is to provide some limited development potential in this area.
Commissioner Dahle MOVED and Commissioner Nuss SECONDED to accept Alternative T3.
Commissioner Stringham made a friendly amendment to change the one R1-12 area to R1-20.
Commissioner Dahle accepted the amendment.
MOTION carried with six votes for and one vote against motion.
Mr. Satterstrom explained this item will be placed on the May 16, 1995 City Council agenda.
There also will be another hearing 30 days from the May 16th date.

Regular meeting of the Kent City Council was called to order at
7 : 00 p.m. by Mayor White. Present: Councilmembers Bennett, Clark,
Mann, Orr and Woods, Operations Director/Chief of Staff McFall,
City Attorney Lubovich, Planning Director Harris, Public Works
Director Wickstrom, Police Chief Crawford, and Finance Director
Miller. Councilmember Houser and Councilmember Johnson were
excused . from the meeting. Approximately 75 people attended the
meeting.
PUBLIC Asia Pacific Trade Exchange Report. Scott Jackson
COMMUNICATIONS distributed a program for the 1995 Trade Exchange
and thanked the City for sending Mayor White and
Council President Woods on the recent recruitment
mission. He commended the Mayor for his efforts
to lead this high level delegation while dealing
with a severe physical problem. He also thanked
Council President Woods for her contribution.
Jackson noted that during the trip, the Vice-
Minister of the China Light Industry and Trade
Association confirmed that they will send a dele-
gation of 50 participants to the Trade Exchange
not only to buy products, but to help cut the
ribbon for the new foreign trade zone designation
in Kent. He also reported that the private sector
is responding more than ever before.
Barbara Ivanov of the Chamber of Commerce, noted
that one local business has said it costs less to
ship products to Hong Kong than it does to drive
it in a truck to Los Angeles. She distributed a
partial list of local companies who were exhi-
bitors at last year' s Trade Exchange, and noted
that there are also regional companies doing
business in Kent. Ivanov invited the Mayor and
Council President to work with the Chamber to plan
strategically to bring small and mid-size com-
panies on board. Woods said the investment made
by the City some years ago for this program was a
wise investment and expressed appreciation at
being able to participate.
Hate Speech. Ted Stamen, Rabbi at Bet Chavarin,
23812 41st Avenue South, noted that he has seen
Nazi propaganda on television recently and asked
that the City of Kent go on record as being a
hate-free community. He said Kent is a place
where people live together in peace and harmony
and he would like to see it stay that way. Mayor

(BIDS - ITEM 5A)
Titus Street Storm Rebuild. Bid opening for this
project was held on Friday, June 2nd with 7 bids
received. The low bid was submitted by Shoreline
Construction in the amount of $302 , 791. 90 . The
Engineer' s estimate was $265 , 706 . 00. The project
consists of reconstructing and upsizing the storm
sewer system on Titus from 1st Avenue to 4th
Avenue. Although the low bid is actually
14 percent over the Engineer' s estimate, all of
the bids were fairly close. As such, it is
obvious that the low bid is a fair representation
of the project cost. The monies for this project
are available within various funds associated
therewith. It has been recommended by the Public
Works Committee, that the Titus Street Storm Sewer
Rebuild project be awarded to Shoreline Construc-
tion in the amount of $302 , 791. 90. MANN MOVED

ANNEXATION (PUBLIC HEARING - ITEM 2A)
ZONING Beck Annexation Zoning AZ-95-2 . This is the
second of two required hearings for the proposed
initial zoning of the Beck Annexation area. The
first hearing was held on May 16, 1995 . The
Planning Commission recommends approval of Zoning
Alternative No. 3 . Kevin O'Neill of the Planning
Department pointed out the area on the map.
Dave Hemboldt, 22521 94th Avenue South, requested
that property he owns in the area be zoned R1-12 ,
as the 12 , 000 sq. ft. lots would be more com-
patible for their proposed three-lot short plat.
Don Whitener, 812 Hilltop Avenue, explained that
he purchased 2-1/2 acres of property in 1966 and
that his neighbor purchased the adjoining 2-1/2
acres. He noted that in 1993 he learned that the
County would be rezoning this area to RS-7200
effective January 1, 1995, and that they have met
all King County codes and rules for marketing
these properties zoned RS-7200P. He expressed
concern about the ability to sell lots of 20, 000
sq. ft. , and about the slopes in the area, and
urged the Council to zone the area R1-7 . 2 . Larry
Clements, 711 Hilltop, noted that as a contractor,
he has built many of the homes in the area, and
that he cleared his property based on information
he received from King County that the property
would be zoned for 7200 sq. ft. lots. He agreed
that 20, 000 sq. ft. lots would be difficult to
sell and urged the Council to zone the area
R1-7 . 2 .
Amy Forbis, 23306 94th Court South, President of
the Wildberry Homeowners Association, noted that
the lot sizes in Wildberry are approximately 9500
sq. ft. and the lot sizes in Rosemary Glen are
5
June 20, 1995
ANNEXATION approximately 13 , 500 sq. ft. due to topography.
ZONING She explained that the Planning Commission reports
say these lots are 7200 sq. ft. She stated that
the 9500 and 13 , 500 sq. ft. lots are small when
topography is taken into consideration. She en-
couraged the Council to affirm the recommendation
of the Planning Commission. David Haywood, 9426
S. 233rd, endorsed Forbis' comments and urged the
Council to approve the Planning Commission' s
recommendation.
R. G. Minnott, 2366 llth Avenue East, Seattle,
representing property owners in the area, noted
that he had sent a letter to the Council re-
questing R1-7. 2 zoning. He said that R1-7 . 2 would
be consistent with the Growth Management Act and
the Comprehensive Plan, and that the topography
dictates it. John Mercer, 23401 94th Avenue
South, urged the Council to adopt the minimum pos-
sible zoning, due to the topography and traffic.
Paul Clements, 20720 4th Avenue South, Des Moines,
disagreed with comments that the steepness of the
slopes is a problem, and said the property could
easily be developed into 7200 sq. ft. lots.
There were no further comments and ORR MOVED to
continue the public hearing until the meeting of
July 5th. Bennett seconded and the motion
carried. WOODS MOVED that the letters from
Mr. Hemboldt, Mr. Clements, Mr. Whitener and
Mr. Minnott be made a part of the record. Orr
seconded and the motion carried. Orr pointed out
that the next meeting will be on Wednesday rather
than Tuesday.
CODES (OTHER BUSINESS - ITEM 4B)
1994 Editions of Uniform Building Code; Uniform
Mechanical Code and Related Fee Schedules. In
accordance with state law (RCW 19 . 27; Title 51
WAC) , Kent and other Washington cities and
counties will begin enforcement of the 1994
editions of the Uniform Building Code and the
Uniform Mechanical Code (with statewide amend-
ments) on June 30, 1995 . The codes replace and
supersede the previous (1991) editions and will be
applicable to permit applications filed on or
after June 30th.
6
June 20, 1995
CODES These new editions contain updated schedules of
fees for permits and plan review. The schedules
increase fees approximately 40 percent above pre-
vious schedules. This increase approximately
equals the increase in the Consumer Price Index
since fees were last increased, with adoption of
the 1985 code editions' schedules (June 1986) .
This matter was discussed at the Operations
Committee meeting of June 19th, and adoption was
recommended. ORR MOVED to adopt Ordinance
No. 3234 amending the Kent City Code relating to
the 1994 Editions of the Uniform Building Code and
the Uniform Mechanical Code. Woods seconded and
the motion carried. ORR MOVED to adopt Resolution
No. 1434 adopting the fees for permits under the
Uniform Building Code, the Uniform Mechanical
Code, the Uniform Plumbing Code and the Uniform
Fire Code. Mann seconded and the motion carried.
BUSINESS (CONTINUED COMMUNICATIONS - ITEM 6A)
LICENSE Business License - Sapphos. Richard Curtain,
23829 102nd Avenue SE, voiced concern about the
Mayor' s recent comments regarding the application
for a business license for a tavern. He said he
assumes the Mayor' s intentions were good, but that
appearances do not reflect that. He said that
while he appreciates Mr. Mann' s honesty and the
strength of his convictions, some of the comments
made disturb him. He explained that his morals as
a gay man are the same morals as heterosexuals.
He noted that he is not aware of any rapes or
fights in a gay bar, and that particular groups of
people cannot be classified with any single
morality, especially based on a characteristic as
broad as sexual orientation. He said this type of
talk is divisive and expressed hope that the hate
speech resolution being prepared will contain the
issue of sexual orientation. He urged the Mayor
to withdraw his opposition to this tavern, and
urged the Council to establish a policy stating
that future discussions about taverns and busi-
nesses in Kent will be handled uniformly. He
urged the Mayor to meet with the owners of the
tavern in question. Aada Burchard spoke in sup-
port of the tavern, saying that there are not too
many taverns already. She said this tavern would
meet the needs of the gays and lesbians in the
community, and that it would produce revenue.
7
June 20, 1995
BUSINESS Evelyn Nickels, partner of the applicant for
LICENSE Sapphos, thanked Mann for the strength of his
convictions, and said that the last line of the
Pledge of Allegiance, as recited at the beginning
of this meeting, says "liberty and justice for
all" . She said this means no select group gets
privileged over another. She noted that this is a
downtown commercial enterprise, and the purpose of
the district is to encourage and promote higher
density development including restaurants, food
related shops and taverns. She noted that they
meet those requirements and said both sides of the
story should be heard. She expressed concern that
they were not consulted. She said that a Western
business with dancing, food, wine and beer was
recently approved. Randy Johnson, 13350 SE 232
Place, asked that any decision not be made upon
orientation, because that is not fair, and added
that the patrons of the bar will produce revenue.
Jeff Mclean, 6221 237th South, Apt. Q102 , spoke
against the tavern because people should not
drink.
Tyler Page, 21024 132nd Avenue SE, spoke in sup-
port of the tavern, and said efforts to block
people from legitimate, legal and tax-paying
enterprises is inconsistent with Kent' s reputation
as a modern, outward oriented City. He noted that
the law calls for equal accommodation, and pointed
out that this business does not impose any burden
on anyone other than those who wish to participate
in it. Bree Walker, 14054 SE 208th Street, voiced
support of the bar and said that Kent has a large
gay community. She agreed that there is less vio-
lence in gay bars, and that people .who are opposed
should visit a gay bar. She urged that all issues
be considered before a decision is made. Denise
Bohana, 13205 SE 260, supported the opening of the
gay bar, noting that there is room in our culture
for different types of people. George Wilson,
14405 SE 257 Place, spoke in opposition not only
to the bar but to some of the statements made
tonight. He said he is opposed to opening another
bar or tavern in the downtown area, noting that
many other establishments also serve alcohol.
He said he appreciates the stance the Mayor has
taken, and that he does not see it as a
homosexual/non-homosexual issue. Dale Fruin
8
June 20, 1995
BUSINESS opposed the addition of another drinking
LICENSE establishment in downtown Kent. Myrtle Lachance
suggested that the City keep family values.
Councilmember Mann apologized to anyone who may
have been offended by his remarks in the media.
He said that although he has no animosity toward
anyone personally, he cannot condone the act of
homosexuality and therefore cannot agree to having
a gay bar in Kent. Mayor White noted that there
are currently 13 licensed taverns in the City of
Kent', 3 of which are downtown, and 119 establish-
ments where alcohol can be purchased. He said he
could not condone another tavern. He noted that
he spent 35 years in the hair business, which he
would not have done if sexual orientation was a
problem for him. He said this issue has been
blown out of proportion by the media, and that he
will not be granting interviews on the subject.
He added that Council may choose to do otherwise.
He expressed the hope that everyone concerned with
this issue will work together.
Orr explained that the Council was not informed of
this issue in advance, and suggested that it may
be appropriate for them to look at the Downtown
Plan, not only with taverns in mind, but also with
other uses which may arise with the coming of the
Regional Justice Center. She said she suggested
to Planning Committee members Clark and Woods at
their meeting today, that they form a committee or
task force to look at the Plan as to the appro-
priate number for any type of development. She
said she will attempt to firm up these plans in
the next two weeks . Mayor White stated that today
he had asked the Planning Commission to reopen the
Downtown Plan in regard to drive-through possi-
bilities for new banks and any other subjects they
wish to address. Orr said she would prefer that
this issue not go through the Planning Commission,
noting that at least two members of the Commission
are running for political office, and she does not
want this to become a political issue. She felt
an independent group involving the Chamber of
Commerce, the Downtown Partnership, business
owners, and residents of the downtown area would
be better.

MEMO TO: BRENT MCFALL, DIRECTOR OF OPERATIONS
FROM: JAMES P. HARRIS, PLANNING DEPARTMENT
SUBJECT: REQUEST FOR SECRETARIAL SUPPORT FOR AUGUST THROUGH
DECEMBER 1995
We have been informed by Human Resources that the recent 1995 AFSME contract limits
temporary employees from working more than five months per year.
We have employed Cyndi Wells this year as a temporary secretary. She has worked four
months so far, but is not working for us at this time. However, we planned to bring her back
in August for the rest of the year. With the new AFSME contract, this cannot happen.
We are requesting that the Meridian Annexation secretary position, authorized for January 1,
1996, be moved up to August 1995 so that we can continue to employ Cyndi as proposed.
We estimate the cost for a full-time Administrative Secretary I position from August 1 through
December 31, with benefits, to be $15,686. We currently have $6,239 that can be used to offset
this cost, leaving a deficit of $9,447.
The Planning Department is now gearing up for the Meridian Annexation work load and we had
planned on using Cyndi to help out with Planning Commission and staff's work on the Meridian
Annexation zoning and the census later in the year. She would assist with all of the mailings,
agendas, minutes, and public notices plus she would help out on business licenses, telephones,
and the front counter. These efforts would relieve other secretaries who would have to work
an average of 2.5 hours per day overtime to make up for the work Cyndi would do.
In 1994, we received approval for Cyndi Wells to be an eight-month temporary employee due
to the work load of the Comprehensive Plan and other GMA projects. In 1995, we have used
Cyndi on an as-needed basis from February through May to fill in for secretaries who were on
vacation or sick leave. Cyndi started with us in 1993 as a volunteer.

The City has been contracting out "building code" plan review
workloads since January of this year expending approximately
$60, 000 . The level of development and construction activity
during 1995 to date has exceeded any similar period in our
records and shows no indication of slowing. The level of
demand and expense of contracting out excess work load
justifies the addition of a full time plans examiner.

MEMORANDUM
June 21, 1995
TO: JON JOHNSON, CHAIR, AND COUNCIL OPERATIONS COMMITTEE
MEMBERS: LEONA ORR AND CHRIST] HOUSER
FROM: BOB HUTCHINSON, BUILDING OFFICIAL
SUBJECT: STRATEGIES TO ADDRESS PLAN REVIEW WORKLOAD
Since January of this year, the City has been addressing "building code" plan review
workloads exceeding internal staff capacity by contracting with an outside vendor for
plan review services. During this period, plans for 22 major projects have been
reviewed "outside", with costs to date for these services totaling approximately $60,000.
The level of development and construction activity during 1995 to date has exceeded
any similar period in our records and shows no indication of slowing. It is anticipated
that demand for plan review service will remain high in the foreseeable future.
The level of demand is enough to command the full-time use of an additional plans
examiner position to supplement the two currently in place. Experience indicates that
in-house staff are more able to respond to our customers needs, are better able to
coordinate review work with other City departments and/or divisions, and are more cost-
effective at doing high production levels of review. Except for temporary peak
overloads, in-house staffing better provides this service than contracting the work out.
Plans to handle the Meridian Annexation include hiring a plans examiner in January,
1996. If this position was filled July 1,1995, the '95 budget costs (including one-time
start up costs) would be approximately $39,000. This would preclude the need for most,
if not all, further contracting for plan review services in 1995, although the demands of
the Meridian Annexation will add more workload in 1996.
Staff recommends that the 1995 budget be amended to authorize creation and filling
one additional plans examiner position immediately, with further analysis during the
first quarter of 1996 to better assess plan review workloads and staff resource
adequacy. Please see attached fiscal analysis and fact sheets.

SUBJECT : 1995 Summer Youth Academy
DATE: 05-15-95
The Kent Police Department worked on a joint Summer Youth Academy
with King County Police and the Kent School District in the
summer of 1994 . Approximately $300 . 00 was left over from the
fundraising efforts from 1994 . I would like to request that
those funds be used for the 1995 joint Summer Youth Academy. We
anticipate up to $5000 . 00 potentially being donated to this
project this year.
The Summer Youth Academy is designed for boys and girls age 12-
15 , they learn more about law enforcement and have classes on
stress, first aid, and numerous other topics . Several field
trips are planned, to include the Courts, Juvenile Detention
Center, Boeing, and possibly a water safety class at a local
swimming pool . Our goal is to encourage youth to look at their
own safety, while improving their own ability to deal with a
crisis . The classes are planned to hold up to 45 youth, from
8 :30 a.m. until 3 : 30 p .m. for two weeks this summer.
The account set up needs to be approved through the Public Safety
Committee and continue through Council approval . We appreciate
the support we have had on this effort in 1994 , our agency was
the first in King County to have a youth academy, and it is
primarily funded through the donations we receive from our
community.

walking to the East Hill Elementary School.
Wickstrom again went over the requirements of a plat being developed in their
neighborhood.
In response to a question from the audience regarding the criteria for road improvements,
Wickstrom said a developer needs to widen the south half of the road in order to handle
a lane of traffic. Regarding S. 244th St. -Wickstrom said that S. 244th is a condition of the
plat. The developer needs to complete those conditions in order to build. Right now it is
being improved to the east boundary line of Canterbury. He will have to construct
transitions on the south side of his north piece so that the traffic will flow thru there without
causing safety issues.
Ed White stated we really don't have many options available for future roads in the area.
If we cut people off, we would be committed to impacting roadways that are not designed
for that type of traffic. There would be a limitation on emergency vehicle response as well
as severely curtailing the development potential on the property.
Tim Clark asked if there was a way to design S. 244th so it can provide access without
ever requiring 100th Ave to be extended. Wickstrom stated that designing it is not the
problem; the issue is how it fits into the overall traffic grid for the city. Everything to the
south has been developed to fit that - all the improvements down to 248th have been built
and were predicated upon that extension thru there.
Mann asked if something could be done regarding, what he feels is a mis-communication
issue between the public and city response to questions. Wickstrom stated that when we
are dealing with employees who are apt to change positions and without the same
employee, they may not have gathered the full knowledge of what's happening. However,
now we do have a Comprehensive Plan under the Growth Management which does
identify the major arterials. Clark asked about a "check off system". Mann asked if there
was a way thru the city's computer network where the information could accessed.
Wickstrom stated that we are not yet that sophisticated with our computer network system
and to do so will take considerable manpower.
Committee requested that the 100th Ave extension item be brought back to the July 10th
Committee meeting for further discussion .
—� LID 330 SEGREGATION ASSESSMENT #6
Wickstrom explained that this property is in Van Doren's Landing and we need to adjust
the boundary to segregate the properties.
.w
Committee unanimously recommended adoption of Resolution # for the
segregation of Assessment #6 in LID 330.
METRICOM INC.
Brubaker explained that this system works on an FCC unlicensed frequency and it creates
a grid network system which allows portable computers to communicate with each other
without using a telephone line. Brubaker asked the Committee for authorization to enter

AMENDMENT PROCEDURES FOR KENT COMPREHENSIVE PLAN - (K. O'Neill)
Senior Planner Kevin O'Neill stated that the Growth Management Act
requires jurisdictions to establish procedures for amending
comprehensive plans . According to state law, comprehensive plans can
only be amended once a year. The draft ordinance in the agenda packet
establishes a time line and process for annual amendments, and also
outlines fees for comprehensive plan amendment applications . Mr .
O' Neill went over the draft ordinance by each section. He said the
ordinance states that amendments shall be submitted to the Planning
Department by September 1 of each calendar year. This date was
proposed in order to fit plan amendments into the same time as the
budget process and the Capital Facilities Plan. The City may also
submit amendments to update the Comprehensive Plan on an emergency
basis in addition to the annual amendment process .

APRIL 18 , 1995
PAGE a _.
Assistant Attorney Laurie Evezich stated she would like to add two
sections to the ordinance . She apologized for not le-ting anyone know
before the meeting about these changes .
The first addition Laurie recommended was a Standard c= Review section.
This would guide a reviewing body in considering whether or not a
Comprehensive Plan amendment would be made . Without such a standard,
the City would risk challenges that its decision making was arbitrary
or capricious . This way the City will not be in jeopardy of having
someone coming back later and saying that the City has acted
arbitrarily or capriciously. She suggested that the Standard of Review
section could contain language to the effect "that a proposed amendment
still maintained the consistency and cogency of the Ccmprehensive Plan
and all of its elements, that it was in furtherance of- the public
health, safety, and welfare, and that it did not ha-.re a negative or
unduly burdensome economic impact" etc .
The second addition would be a Time of Review section so that once the
September 1st threshold was met, that there was some certainty as to
how soon the reviewing body would have to process this information and
then make a decision afterwards . Specifically, she recommended that
language be added that the City Council will receive a- application and
will review it within "x" number of days , and they make a decision as
to affirm, deny, or modify the application and spell this out up front
so the person who is making the application has some sense of what the
process and the time of that process will be .
Chair Orr responded by saying this is probably something that should be
included. She added it is important that the Council �-iow whether this
is a 60-day process or 90-day process or whatever and that the people
involved would need to know the time frame too .
Mr. Harris recommended that perhaps the language could- state when the
Planning Commission would receive all the amendments and not the City
Council because the Planning Commission could spend fc-ar months on the
amendments .
The question was asked if action was needed today. Mr . Satterstrom
clarified that this item is on the agenda for action so this can go to
the City Council .
Councilmember Johnson MOVED and Clark SECONDED a motion to adopt the
Comprehensive Plan Amendment Procedures as outlined in the ordinance
and at the next Planning Committee the Committee would review two new
sections called Standard for Review and Time of =eview. Motion
carried.

AMENDMENT PROCEDURES FOR KENT COMPREHENSIVE PLAN - (K. O'Neill)
Senior Planner Kevin O'Neill summarized the three added sections of the
Amendment Procedures for the Kent Comprehensive Plan as requested at
the last meeting. The three added sections were Standard of Review
(12 . 02 . 050) , Hearing Procedures - notice recruirement 12 . 02 . 060 , and
City Council action (12 . 02 . 070) .
Kevin explained that Section 12 . 02 . 050 spells out three criteria which
both staff and ultimately the Council would consider when looking at
either text or map amendments relating to findings that the Council
would make in terms of if the amendments are to be adopted.
He stated that Section 12 . 02 . 060 relates to hearing procedures . There
are different notice procedures whether there is a text amendment or a
map amendment . If it is a map amendment, it would be advertised and
noticed the same as a rezone .
In regards to the last Section 12 . 02 . 070 , there was some discussion at
the last meeting relating to needing a time frame within which the
Council would make their determination or decision once they had
received the information. This section provides a sixty (60) day time-
line once the Council receives the recommendation (s) .
Kevin also pointed out a very small change to Section 12 . 02 . 030 , Time
of filing. This change clarifies that the Planning Department has the
responsibility of establishing the application procedures and
determining whether or not an application is complete or not . The
underlined sentence below was added :
CITY COUNCIL PLANNING COMMITTEE MINUTES
MAY 16 , 1995
PAGE 2
"Annual amendments to the comprehensive plan shall be submitted to
the Kent Planning Department by September 1 of each calendar year.
Requests for amendments shall be submitted on forms prescribed by
the Planning Department . Incomplete amendment applications will
not be accented for filing. Requests received each year after
September 1 shall be considered in the following year' s
comprehensive plan amendment process . "
Kevin asked the Committee members for questions . Councilmember Johnson
expressed concern as to whether Section 12 . 02 . 060 , "notification of all
property owners within two hundred (200)_ feet of the affected property"
is adequate language .
Fred replied that discretion will take place on a comprehensive plan
amendment of at least 200 feet and probably more . Fred explained
comprehensive plan amendments are different because they are more in a
policy making role . It' s not like a Hearing Examiner interpretting
policy in a quasi-judicial role .
Fred gave an example if a potential comprehensive plan amendment
occurred to North Park located on James Street . If an application was
submitted, their application proposal has the signatures of the
affected property owners directly related to this particular
application. When the Planning Department staff reviews the
application, they look at it in a broad area and determine whether this
is a plan amendment or a policy role . When this is brought to the
Planning Commission and City Council, the Department would provide many
alternatives and alter the boundary lines . These changes would go
beyond the property owners listed on the actual application. If the
Department had taken the 200 foot limitation literally, the Department
could be ultimately holding a public hearing and going for a
recommendation that involves people that weren' t notified. Related to
the North Park example, Fred stated the Department would be notifying
people beyond the application and include notification of all affected
property oweners based on the staff ' s alternatives and then a 200 foot
radius .
There was much discussion on this . Chair Orr stated she agreed with
Fred and suggested stating "at least 200 feet" .
Assistant Attorney Evezich commented this language could work against
the City since there is a burden on the City if the language is not as
clear as possible .
Roger Lubovich expressed concern about leaving areas open for
discretion which could lead to discretionary action against the City.
Fred reported that there is a section in the City code that gives the
Planning Director some authority to broaden the notification area. The
language does not say at least 200 feet but more if in the judgment of
the Planning Director a larger area is necessary.
CITY COUNCIL PLANNING COMMITTEE MINUTES
MAY 1G, 1995
PAGE 3
Laurie Evezich suggested not changing the language but reminded the
Committee that the Planning Director would have to temper his
discretion from being arbitrary and capricious by treating each
instance with the same considerations , whatever they were, each and
every time .
Mr. Harris suggested the Zoning Code language be referenced in the
ordinance or flat out change the language to 300 feet or 400 feet so no
discretionary language could be challenged.
Ms . Evezich stated to keep mind that this is 200 feet of the affected
property, which is potentially not a single applicant, is a designation
on a map of a very broad area. So 200 feet around or within that area
is like putting a buffer of 200 feet around that area. In addition, it
looks like we' re talking about looking at the cumulative impacts of all
of the planning map applications each year. There is a large number of
people so are likely to get notice of all of the potential impacts of
all of the plan map application amendments . There was a lot of
discussion on notification and who wwould be notified with this
language .
Chair Orr brought up another concern on Section 12 . 02 . OG0 - Hearing
Procedures, and asked if the City is required by some State law for
these amendments to go the Planning Commission. Laurie said yes .
Mr. Harris commented that the City of Kent is a code City and that we
have to go through the process of a Planning Commission, via City Clerk
and Mayor' s office to make changes to our City code .
Chair Orr asked that this item be pulled from the City Council agenda
scheduled for tonight' s meeting. She asked that this item be brought
back to the Committee meeting schedule for June 20, 1995 and for this
item and ordinance be put on the June 20th City Council agenda .
ADULT USE ZONING #ZCA-95-1 - (F. Satterstrom)
Planning Manager Fred Satterstrom briefly went over the staff report
and mentioned that pages two and four were mistakenly omitted and the
missing pages were handed out at the meeting. He reported to the
Committee that the staff recommended Alternative #4 , which was the one
that had the most sites (32 potential sites) . He reported that the
Planning Commission did not have a majority vote to come up with a
recommendation. They held hearings on February 27, March 27, and April
24 , 1995 .
City Attorney Roger Lubovich suggested something that the Committee
might want to consider. He suggested the City consider looking .into
this matter at the same time that the Planning Department does the
Growth Management Act zoning changes related to the Comprehensive Plan
which are coming up soon. He recommended this because the zoning map
may have some impact in how many sites would be available, potential

CITY COUNCIL PLANNING COMMITTEE MINUTES
JUKE 20 , 1995
AMENDMENT PROCEDURES FOR KENT COMPREHENSIVE PLAN - (K. O'Neill)
Kevin O'Neill, Senior Planner, referenced the draft ordinance
distributed at the last Planning Committee meeting on May 16 , 1995 .
He recalled the section entitled Hearina Procedures - Notice
Requirement (12 . 02 . 060) , . which relates specifically to the
comprehensive plan land use plan map. Reiterating his memorandum
dated June 20, 1995 to the Planning Committee, Mr. O'Neill further
defined the intent of the term "affected area" , stating that it
does not necessarily mean a specific parcel, but could also
represent a -larger area of several parcels . He said this makes the
amendment request different from a request for rezone . Mr. O'Neill
said the affected parcels may be identified by the applicant , as
well as any additional parcels contiguous to the applicant ' s
property which the Planning Director determines should be included
for the potential amendment .
Councilmember Clark asked Laurie Evezich, Assistant City Attorney,
if this process is in coordination with the Growth Management Act
(GMA) at both the state and county level . Ms . Evezich said the
Comprehensive Plan Amendments are required by the GMA, and that the
planning policies of the county were a guideline to Kent' s existing
comprehensive plan. Ms . Evezich said the county planning policies
are already incorporated into the City' s comprehensive plan and
that the City has satisfied GMA criteria. She said proposed
amendments need to be reviewed by the Planning Department at one
time to determine the annual comprehensive plan revisions .
Jim Harris, Planning Director, said beginning in April of 1996, a
new law goes into effect (17 . 24) , requiring the Planning Department
to maintain an on-going list of issues and problems raised by
developers or individuals concerning the comprehensive plan or
zoning code . He said informal requests, as well as formal
applications are to be documented and considered at the time of the
yearly processing of the proposed amendments . Mr. Harris said over
time, he thought the GMA would be modified by the Legislature to
ensure public comment is considered pertaining to revising the
comprehensive plan and zoning code .
Councilmember Clark MOVED to adopt the amendment procedures to the
Kent Comprehensive Plan. Councilmember Woods SECONDED the motion.
Discussion: The statement "and to recommend it to the full
council, and add it to the consent calendar" was added to the
motion. The motion carried.

Ron Spang, Sue Viseth
MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC: Linda Johnson, Bill Doolittle
The meeting was called to order at 9:37 a.m. by Chairperson Johnson.
Approval of Vouchers All claims for the period ending May 15, 1995, in the amount of
$1,635,501.72 were approved for payment.
Addition.of 0.5 FTE Position or Graphics/ Cahle TV
Information Services Division Manager Ron Spang reviewed with the Committee the handouts
distributed with the agenda. He noted that staffing is currently 'h position down from 1991
staffing levels even though workloads have expanded for graphics and cable television has been
added. To meet these demands $23,000 has been spent on overtime to date although only S350
has been budgeted. He explained that this overtime has been offset by other savings but it is not
in the best interest of the employees to work the kind of hours Dea and Jan have had to work
to keep up.
During further review, Spang asked for authorization to add a half time permanent part time
position as soon as possible and have authorization to add $7,500 to augment for temporary
help. Graphics Specialist Lead Dea Drake pointed out that the chart included illustrates the
amount of overtime worked since 1994 which shows that a ''/2 time FTE is needed to stabilize
the normal workload with the additional $7,500 to hire temporary help during peak demands.
She added that this covers current demand only. The Committee questioned the impact of the
Meridian Annexation. Dea responded the increase would be in amounts of printing such as
increasing utility stuffers and parks brochures. Drake added that they anticipate coming back
in January to ask for another `/2 FTE to concentrate on cable which would help cover expanding
hours without overtime. After expanding on the needs for cable, Committee Chair Johnson
questioned the use of volunteers from Community Colleges in addition to this for peaks, etc.
He asked if it was possible with the unions. Human Resources Viseth noted that the use of
volunteers had been discussed in contract negotiations. She noted that the expectations for a
professional station dictates that staff be on site with volunteers and is being looked at.
After further discussion,Committeemember Orr moved to approve for the additional production
staff as soon as it can be arranged. Johnson seconded the motion which passed 2-0.
Addition of Full Time Position for Finance
Finance Division Director May Miller informed the Committee that the Finance Department
has remained seven positions down since the 1991/92 cuts. To fill some of the need a
temporary person had been utilized six months of last year and five months of this year. Miller
explained that the AFSCME contract limits temporary positions to five months which is
reasonable in that staff should be added where needed. She stated that she was asking for a
Administrative Assistant 11 which most directors have to assist with budget and timesheets, etc.
Miller added that a budget change is not needed since budget savings would be utilized but
requested authorization to hire this position. She noted that the need for another position is
anticipated to be requested in January to assist the budget analyst. Viseth interjected that an
OPERATIONS COMMITTEE MINUTES, Cont.
MAY 245 1995
Administrative Assistant II position was in Finance previously and had been deleted which has
left May with no secretarial support for the department leaving management level employees
to pick up coordination. Orr moved to-approve the position, Johnson seconded. Orr noted that
more work is going to be needed to be ready for the annexation. After Johnson noted his
agreement that the work should be done by the appropriate staff, the motion passed 2-0.
Public Works Contract Requirements - Ordinance
Johnson stated that Roger Lubovich had requested that this item be forwarded to the Public
Works Committee. Orr concurred.
Kent Downtown Partnersbiy U12date
Executive Director of the Kent Downtown Partnership Linda Johnson stated that the
information from the packet was self explanatory but wanted to touch base with the Committee.
She pointed out that their in-kind donations have gone way up as well as extra people who have
come forward to volunteer in the office. Linda Johnson explained that the downtown private
investment has gone up to $15 million. She noted that the addition of the Code Enforcement
Officer Brian Swanberg is reflected in major improvements to the downtown and has been
noticed by citizens.
Linda explained that the Saturday Market project is progressing and she is pursuing a grant
forwarded to her from Don Wickstrom for improvements. She noted that since this will be a
business incubator and qualifies for economic development funding. Linda invited all City
Councilmembers to walk through the downtown to look at sidewalks with her. Orr noted the
response she had seen at work to the article on the Kent Downtown. Linda noted that at a recent
convention she was reminded how forward thinking Kent is. Only 1,000 communities in the
U.S. have a position such as hers.
April Financial Report
May Miller reviewed the April Financial Report with the Committee. After reviewing the April
Financial Report,May reviewed the Golf Complex April Financial Report with the Committee.
On page 5, she noted the Director comparison from 1994 shows that the Director's major impact
is in merchandise revenue is coming in under budget. On the City revenue comparison from
1994 she noted the major impacts are in range fees and driving range. She noted that the
individual revenue funds had been rolled into the overall forecast and the revenue has been
reduced from $3 million to $2.7 million. This is offset by the capital forecast being reduced
from $1.4 million to $1 million. Orr asked if the raised fees had contributed to the revenue
reduction. May responded that they are currently analyzing the number of rounds. She added
that it is hard to estimate what will happen with all of the new competition but the mini-putt
seems to be a good pull. May completed her review.
Committee Chair Johnson asked if there was any further business, there being none he
adjourned the meeting at 10:34 a.m.

COMMITTEE MEMBERS PRESENT: Christi Houser - Acting Chair, Leona Orr
STAFF PRESENT: Tom Brubaker, John Hillman, Bob Hutchinson, May Miller, Kelli
O'Donnell
MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC: Dan Ivanoff, Jeff McLean
The meeting was called to order at 932 a.m. by Acting Chairperson Houser.
pvroval of Vouchers All claims for the period ending May 31, 1995, in the amount of
$1,749,548.21 were approved for payment.
Adoption of 1994 Editions of Uniform Building Code: Uniform Mechanical Code and
Related Fee Schedules - Ordinance/Resolution
Building Official Bob Hutchinson explained the need to adopt the new code to be up to date
with the State who has recently adopted the 1994 edition of the Uniform Building Code and
Uniform Mechanical Code. In reviewing the need to update the fees, Hutchinson stated that the
fire and plumbing fee schedules are not being changed but are included to consolidate all of the
related fee schedules into one resolution. He explained that the increases in the building and
mechanical fee schedules will enact the first increase since the 1985 edition was adopted. The
increase will be approximately 40% which is in keeping with the CHI for the time period.
Hutchinson added that the Washington Association of Building Officials are surveying cities
on plans to adopt these increases and though the survey is incomplete to date two thirds of those
responding have or plan to adopt the new rates.
Committeemember Leona Orr asked if the cities surrounding Kent plan to adopt these fees.
Hutchinson responded that he hasn't checked but is aware that Federal Way is planning to adopt
them. Acting Chair Houser noted her concern that 40% in one increase seemed extreme. Orr
agreed asking if there was a way to do it a little at a time in the future. Hutchinson agreed
stating that he would like to look at it annually with permit fees. Orr asked when the last
increase was adopted. Hutchinson replied that the 1985 edition and fees was adopted in June
of 1986.
Orr moved to recommend adoption of the proposed ordinance amending the Kent City Code
relating to the Uniform Building Code and the Uniform Mechanical Code to adopt the 1994
editions and the proposed resolution adopting the fees for permits under the Uniform Building
Code,the Uniform Mechanical Code, the Uniform Plumbing Code and the Uniform Fire Code
and recommended that fees be looked at annually to avoid large increases in the future.
Added Item - Permit Review Staffing
Dan Ivanoff of Bircher Northwest asked to address the Committee on the permit process.
Acting Chair Houser asked him to come forward. Ivanoff stated that as a developer he has
worked on such projects as Van Doren's Landing in Kent and is currently working on moving
Magnolia Hi Fi into Kent. He noted that in marketing one of the selling points has been how
smooth the permitting process in Kent has been. Ivanoff explained that this year the industrial
OPERATIONS COMMITTEE MINUTES, Cont.
Special Meeting
June 19, 1995
market has been high and Building/Public Works has been contracting out their overload
permits to ICBO. He noted that in the normal process meetings would be held with permitting
staff and developers and the permits are received in 7 '/2 to 8 weeks. With the addition of
sending permits out to ICBO, 3 to 4 weeks has been added as well as increasing the uncertainty
of how permits will be handled. He noted that his company is used to working with City staff
and the end result of contracting out is a new learning curve.
Mr. Ivanoff reviewed the current marketing conditions for industrial property in the area with
the committee. He noted that volume is substantially up and appealed to the committee to
consider the resources used for permit review internally versus externally stating that he did not
feel that the volume would drop off. Ivanoff suggested that it would be better for permitting and
business if staff was added.
Houser asked if the permit person had been added for the Regional Justice Center. Hutchinson
replied that an inspector position had been filled which does not impact plan review. Orr and
Houser asked what the cost of sending out permits has been. Hutchinson stated that since
February the City is obligated approximately $60,000 worth of permits adding that he wasn't
certain if the overload would continue. After further discussion, the committee asked
Hutchinson to bring back some proposals on additional staff to the next Operations Committee
meeting.
Assistant City Attorney Tom Brubaker noted that SB 1724 known as the regulatory reform act
had passed which has some consolidating measures which will alter our permitting process and
require amendments to City ordinances in the near future.
There being no further business,Acting Chair Christi Houser adjourned the meeting at 9:55 a.m.

DIRECTOR OF GOLF:
John Hodgson discussed the proposed appointment of Brett Wilkinson as Director of Golf at Riverbend
Golf Complex. John reported that Brett has been Acting Director for the past two months and is
credited with improvements to the Marshaling program. John found that Brett's interview corroborates
with his references, he has proved to be a good teacher, problem solver, hard worker, and good with
people. John then recommended Brett Wilkinson to be appointed Director of Golf. Paul Mann made a
motion to approve Brett Wilkinson as Director of Golf for Riverbend Golf Complex, Tim Clark
seconded. The vote was 3-0.
SURPLUS HOUSES: John Hodgson shared with Council that the City has four homes that need to
be demolished. He informed the committee that each time we demolish a house, it costs the City
$10,000. Councilmember Clark asked about the condition of the homes; are they habitable. John
responded that each home will not take much to bring them up to code--between $5,000 - 7,000 in
repairs. Paul Mann moved to approve selling the houses located at 24623 Russell Road (Riverbend
Golf Complex); 8121 South 259th (Corrections Facility); 24615 26th Place South (Parkside Wetlands);
and 11459 SE 266th (Public Works). Tim Clark seconded, the vote was 3-0.
SIDEWALKS AND STREET TREES:
Pursuant to Council budget, Public Works Department has been working with the Parks Department to
replace damaged sidewalks in the central business district area. As a result of .these damaged
sidewalks it was apparent the problem was due to the street trees and the type of trees planted. The
City Risk Manager and Law Department has received a number of complaints of trip and fall accidents
because of the damaged sidewalks. The streets involved are: 1st Avenue - Meeker Street to Titus
Street; Harrison Street - 2nd Avenue to 4th Avenue (north side); Harrison Street - 2nd Avenue to 4
Avenue (south side); and Gowe Street - 2nd Avenue to 4th Avenue (north side).
Public Works would like to go to bid on the sidewalk repair and take the opportunity to replace the
street trees. The City of Kent, Street Tree Committee contacted Colie Hough-Beck of Hough Beck &
Baird Landscape Architects to conduct a survey of the street trees. Colie and an arborist found the
Page 1
tree species to be wrong for the Kent sidewalk environment, due to the small amount of planter space
available and problems with overhead power lines. A master plan was created from this research.
Through a previous study Colie conducted for Mercer Island and their street trees, a soil mix and
planting structure was developed. It is a successful system that maintains sidewalks, power lines and
future growth of trees; Colie suggests using the same strategy for Kent.
This research has created another opportunity - - to create custom designed tree grates, with a pattern
depicting the essence of the Kent area. Jim McDonald reported that an artist was selected by a jury
from the Arts Commission members. The designer was inspired by the hops plant, indigenous to the
northwest. Councilmember Clark asked about the material used for the grates Jim responded that they
meet ADA requirements and are made out of cast iron, the same material used in the durable street
grates. Councilmember Clark also asked about leaf dropage, since there will more replacement trees
than previous trees. Colie replied that it won't be any worse than the current trees.
Linda Johnson of the Kent Downtown Partnership referenced the completion of Phase I . Linda
recently took council members on a walk throughout the City to show them the mud holes and weedy
areas that she would like to see fixed from Phase I. She also asked consideration for increasing the
sidewalk budget to accommodate the needs to do it right. Chair Houser asked when Phase I will be
done. Don Wickstrom responded that it will cost $260,000 to finish Phase I and the City does not have
the money. There was interest in finding a mechanism to obtain revenue for finishing Phase I.
Jack Becvar of the Kent Historical Society asked about the cost of the grates and what happens now;
Tim replied that the grates installed cost $1,200 each and the City is purchasing the form, which will
save money. The sidewalks/street tree project will begin on Harrison Street - 2nd Avenue to 4th
Avenue.
PROJECT/PROGRAM REPORTS:
Skateboard Committee: The committee will consist of all youth and two staff members. They will visit
Seattle next week, touring other Skateboard Parks where they will take videos and pictures. The
committee will present a report to City Council.
Youth/Teen: The department received a youth employment grant and will be hiring 18 youth from Kent
Memorial, Thomas Jefferson and Kent West High Schools; some will be able to work year-round.
Chair Houser asked if anyone is dealing with the Futures Club. John responded that six apartments
that participate in the Youth/teen complexes and Future's Club is going to three of them. Chair Houser
recruited for more representatives for the Future's Club representatives; contact Mel Tate.
Development Reports/Coloring our City - Corrections, Public Works and Parks is conducting an
inventory now, broken into three phases. Parks Maintenance needs more green houses to
accommodate this project. Two garden clubs will help re-do the Soames Home's garden. The lights
are up at West Fenwick and Glenn Nelson.

AMENDMENT PROCEDURES FOR KENT COMPREHENSIVE PLAN - (K. O'Neill)
Kevin O'Neill, Senior Planner, referenced the draft ordinance
distributed at the last Planning Committee meeting on May 16 , 1995 .
He recalled the section entitled Hearing Procedures - Notice
Reauirement (12 . 02 . 060) , which relates specifically to the
comprehensive plan land use plan map . Reiterating his memorandum
dated June 20, 1995 to the Planning Committee, Mr. O'Neill further
defined the intent of the term "affected area" , stating that it
does not necessarily mean a specific parcel, but could also
represent a larger area of several parcels . He said this makes the
amendment request different from a request for rezone . Mr. O'Neill
said the affected parcels may be identified by the applicant , as
well as any additional parcels contiguous to the applicant' s
property which the Planning Director determines should be included
for the potential amendment .
Councilmember Clark asked Laurie Evezich, Assistant City Attorney,
if this process is in coordination with the Growth Management Act
(GMA) at both the state and county level . Ms . Evezich said the
Comprehensive Plan Amendments are required by the GMA, and that the
planning policies of the county were a guideline to Kent' s existing
comprehensive plan. Ms . Evezich said the county planning policies
CITY COUNCIL PLANNING COMMITTEE MINUTES
JUNE 20 , 1995
PAGE 2
are already incorporated into the City' s comprehensive plan and
that the City has satisfied GMA criteria . She said proposed
amendments need to be reviewed by the Planning Department at one
time to determine the annual comprehensive plan revisions .
Jim Harris, Planning Director, said beginning in April of 1996, a
new law goes into effect (17 . 24) , requiring the Planning Department
to maintain an on-going list of issues and problems raised by
developers or individuals concerning the comprehensive plan or
zoning code . He sa4d informal requests , as well as formal
applications are to be documented and considered at the time of the
yearly processing of the proposed amendments. Mr. Harris said over
time, he thought the GMA would be modified by the Legislature to
ensure public comment is considered pertaining to revising the
comprehensive plan and zoning code .
Councilmember Clark MOVED to adopt the amendment procedures to the
Kent Comprehensive Plan . Councilmember Woods SECONDED the motion.
Discussion: The statement "and to recommend it to the full
council , and add it to the consent calendar" was added to the
motion. The motion carried.
FITZTHUM REGULATORY REVIEW - #ZCA-95-5 (F. Satterstrom)
Fred Satterstrom, Planning Manager, said this issue was carried
over from the previous meeting. He explained the background of
this regulatory review request, which originated as a result of an
Order of Abatement by the Hearing Examiner for a code violation for
operating an auto repair with body and engine work shop out of his
home, which is not permitted in an M1 zone . Nor is this use
allowed under the City' s Home Occupation Business License
regulations . Mr. Satterstrom outlined the procedures required for
'initiating a zoning code change, which includes : submittal of the
regulatory review request form by the applicant to the staff;
staff presentation to the Planning Committee; deliberations by the
Planning Committee; with a favorable vote, it is forwarded to the
Planning Commission for further deliberation; and eventual adoption
of the issue into the zoning code .
Mr. Satterstrom said staff is not supportive of this request , due
to the applicant' s incompatible use in the manufacturing zone . He
stated several comprehensive plan land use policies which Mr.
Fitzthum' s request is in conflict . Satterstrom named other
commercial zones of CC, GC, GWC, and CM-2 where auto repair is an
allowable use .
Barbara Ivanov, Director of Kent ' s Chamber of Commerce, spoke
supporting the value cf preserving the manufacturing zone on the
valley floor and it' s importance not only to Kent, but to South
King County. She listed several negative impacts uses such as auto
CITY COUNCIL PLANNING COMMITTEE MINUTES
JUNE 20 , 1995
PAGE 3
repair would create if located in the M1 zoning district, as well
as the value of the M1 zone as an unrenewable resource . She
explained that allowing this unpermitted use would open the door
for other non-complying uses locating to the zone, which would
depredate the zone . However, she affirmed that support services to
manufacturing uses is compatible in the district .
Mr. Harris said Detroit Diesel is a prime example of a support
service company which is successfully integrated in the M1 zone,
opposed to Mr. Fitzthum' s personal residence which is located in
the zone, but operating a prohibited use . Mr. -Harris said
allowance of this operation would erode the intent of the district,
as well as setting a precedence for further non-complying uses .
Chair Orr questioned if this issue would require a comprehensive
plan review process instead of a regulatory review, based on the
rules of the newly adopted Kent Comprehensive Plan and the Growth
Management Act .
Mr . Fitzthum asked if the Home Occupation category of the Business
License regulations could be revised to allow his use in the M1
zone, admitting he would be unable to comply with several
specifications of the Home Occupation Agreement .
Mr. Harris said the intent of the Home Occupation is for home
businesses located in residential neighborhoods and apartments , not
for businesses located in left-over homes located in manufacturing
zoning districts .
Discussions followed. Councilmember woods said she did not want
the M1 zoning requirements to change, and that it is important to
keep the integrity of that area . Mr . Harris clarified that there
were a few isolated houses remaining in the district , and three
houses to the South were recently destroyed for future approved
development . Mr. Satterstrom added that the Hearing Examiner gave
an August 1st time frame to resolve the code violation, and perhaps
the Hearing Examiner would allow Mr . Fitzthum an extension to
locate to another location. Mr. Satterstrom said the Hearina
Examiner has put the Council in an awkward position. Chair Orr
also agreed that the zone should be preserved, and a negative
precedence would be set if this use was allowed for an extended
period of time . She suggested this item be returned to the Hearing
Examiner for a extension in time to resolve the matter .
GMPC HOUSING FINANCE TASK FORCE - (B. Czark)
Betsy Czark, Planner, introduced guests from the Growth Management
Planning Council Housing Finance Task Force, which was formed in
the fall of 1994 . Two of the guest speakers are members of the
Housing Finance Task Force : Josephine Tamayo Murray, Executive
CITY COUNCIL PLANNING COMMITTEE MINUTES
JUNE 20 , 1995
PAGE 4
Director of Catholic Community Services; and Carla Okigwe,
Executive Director of the Seattle-King County Housing Development
Consortium. The third guest speaker, Maureen Kostyack, is staff to
the task force . Ms . Czark said the GMA required a task force be
created to develop a new county-wide funding source or sources for
affordable housing, and the guests are here today to discuss the
task force' s preliminary funding recommendation and to receive
input for an ultimate recommendation amenable to all King County
jurisdictions .
Ms . Okigwe began the briefing by stating her position on the task
force, and the mission of the task force . It is : 1) To develop a
new county-wide funding force for housing production and services .
They plan to establish this funding within 3 years . 2) To work on
participation by local governments, including appropriate public
and private financing, such that each jurisdiction contributes on
a fair share basis . 3) Objectives for housing and related
services, including measurable levels of housing production and
costs to provide necessary related service .
Ms . Okigwe said there is a substantial amount of need throughout
the County. There are about 130 , 000 households in need with about
half of those households paying over half of their income for
housing. She said their goal is have the jurisdictions work
together to help meet these needs .
Josephine Tamayo Murray added that the task force is comprised of
not only government officials, but also bankers and other business
interests from the Chamber, which creates a multi-partisan approach
to assessing financing for housing needs . She said the financing
plan contains three principles for funding housing programs . They
are : 1) housing programs that are focused to address the highest
priority in the locality. 2) A comprehensive approach using a
multiple of sources . 3 ) A structure for distributing funds, which
uses local community input .
Ms . Murray said the first step to fund affordable housing in 1996-
1997 is to establish a shared commitment from local jurisdictions .
There are three parts to the task force' s recommendation: 1)
Local jurisdictions contributing $1 . 00 to $2 . 00 per person into a
fund; 2) creation of a dedicated revenue source through the
Legislature, such as allocation of a portion of document recording
fees and sales tax revenues ; 3) voter approval for a regional levy
in 1997-98 . She said the next step is to finalize this
recommendation in July, create an action plan and steps for each
element of the recommendation, and present the plan to the Growth
Management Planning Council on September 20 , 1995 .
Maureen Kostyack emphasized the need, importance and
accomplishments of the housing programs, saying now public
CITY COUNCIL PLANNING COMMITTEE MINUTES
JUNE 20 , 1995
PAGE 5
education is necessary to start small , prioritize expenditures by
using existing revenues, so as to ultimately approach the
Legislature with local progress in addressing housing, and to
request additional help .
The task force members asked the Planning Committee members for
their comments . Councilmember Clark expressed his concern
regarding the lack of understanding by the voting public of South
King County' s problems, and that they have no real sense of
community. Ms . Okigwe said according to results of a recent
county-wide survey, public approval concerning housing issues
appear to be improving.
Discussions followed concerning possible approaches to realizing
their goal considering the recent defeat of other issues, such as
the RTA. Mr. Harris raised the possibility of formation of a
coalition with another group requesting regional funds . Ms . Okigwe
asked if Kent would be interested in being included in an initial
group of cities to agree to commit to the first phase of $1-$2 per
capita . Councilmember Woods felt a request for funding at the
Housing Finance Task Force presentation at the Roundtable
discussion last week would have been good. Only a request for
cities and the Roundtable to pass a resolution in support of the
concept was discussed.
Councilmember Clark said he felt citizen groups in Kent should
approach the City Council as a community, rather than the City
asking for support of the citizens . Carla stated that such a
citizen-driven campaign is in the works . Mr. Harris asked if a
resolution was in order to be adopted by the Council endorsing the
preliminary finance recommendation concept and do what it can,
within budget constraints, to participate without necessarily
committing 1996 dollars . He said although it is not money, it was
a start .
Councilmember Woods MOVED to endorse the preliminary finance
recommendations of the King County Housing Finance Task Force .
Councilmember Clark SECONDED the motion . The motion CARRIED .
Members of the task force discussed a slide presentation they
wished the Councilmembers and citizens to view. Mr. Harris
commented that the report submitted by the task force was very
informational .
CONCURRENCY DRAFT ORDINANCE - (R. Lubovich)
Roger Lubovich, City Attorney, read a section from a statute from
the RCW dealing with concurrency as related to the adopted Kent
Comprehensive Plan. He said according to the GMA, concurrency
requirements are applicable to Transportation Element . He said in
CITY COUNCIL PLANNING COMMITTEE MINUTES
JUNE 20 , 1995
PAGE 6
Kent' s comp plan, concurrency was also adopted for water, storm
water, and sewer. He discussed the draft concurrency ordinance,
which basically states that the City requires transportation
concurrency, or mitigate the impact to obtain concurrency, as well
as for water, storm water and sewer. Mr. Lubovich said although
this issue began in Planning, it is now more of a Public Works
agenda, and should be considered by the Public Works Committee .
Mr. Lubovich said the elements of the concurrency ordinance the
Council will need to consider is the type of exemptions that will
be allowed, as outlined on page 14 of the draft .
Chair Orr asked how senior housing exemptions will be affected by
the ordinance . She said she didn' t expect an answer now, and would
wait until the Public Works Committee met . Mr. Lubovich said
regardless of the exemptions stated, there would always be an
impact . He said policy issues would need to discussed in a Public
Works workshop as there would be no development without
concurrency, and without a strategy for financing, mitigation would
be necessary, which could have a major bearing on impact fees for
transportation.
Chair Orr suggested Mr. Lubovich take the draft concurrency
ordinance directly to a City Council workshop . Councilmember Woods
instructed him to call for a workshop date .
SCHOOL IMPACT FEES - L. Evezich
Ms . Evezich said she has contacted the City of Kent School
District, who have expressed that if Kent does adopt school impact
fee ordinance, that it resemble closely the King County impact fee
structure . She said after review of King County' s impact fees,
there are some problems, but the extent of the problems have yet to
be determined. Ms . Evezich said Mr. High would be available for a
meeting after July 19, along with their legal counsel . She said
she hopes to have a draft ordinance ready after the meeting.
Councilmember Clark said he wished he could also attend the
meeting, but he will be on vacation. He requested to obtain copies
of the minutes from the meeting.
ADDED ITEMS -
Chair Orr said she is interested in forming a committee to review
Kent' s Downtown Plan, due to some recent controversies over uses
and the activity with the Regional Justice Center. She said she
has been working with Roger; however, she has not worked out all
the details . Chair Orr said if the Planning Committee agrees, she
will make a formal presentation to the City Council .
The Planning Committee agreed to Chair Orr' s request .
PUBLIC WORKS COMMITTEE
JUNE 26,1995
PRESENT: PAUL MANN TOM BRUBAKER
JIM BENNETT ED WHITE
TIM CLARK JOHN BOND
DON WICKSTROM
Future Road Extension of 100th Avenue & SE 244th St.
Wickstrom stated that Council received a petition from the property owners regarding an
extension of 100th Ave to SE 240th from SE 244th St. Council referred this to the Public
Works Committee. Wickstrom said that at this point in time, there are no improvements
planned at this time for 100th Ave between SE 240th & SE 244th. He said there is a plat
("Top of the Hill") adjacent to 244th; east of 100th that is being developed He noted that
Council has approved that plat and also approved its density from 7200 sq. ft lots down
to 5000 sq ft lots. The developer is doing their frontage improvement as a condition of
development of that plat. They are improving their frontage on SE 244th which then will
open SE 244th between 100th Ave & 104th (Benson). Wickstrom said they are also
required to construct a trail along the original alignment of 100th Ave from SE 244th north
to the end of the road adjacent to the East Hill Elementary School. Wickstrom said that
roads in this particular area are not something that we have" in the works" that we are
pursuing. They are developer oriented built type roads - as the property develops, they
build their frontage and the road gets built accordingly. Wickstrom said that 100th Ave
is an important north/south residential collector arterial. This particular pocket south of
240th and north of 248th, east of 94th and west of 104th is one of the highest density
single family residential areas in Kent. This is one of the areas chosen in the Comp Plan
to have high density single family residential lots. We need roads for good access thru the
area. 100th Ave is in our Comp Plan as a non-motorized route meaning there will be
bicycle lanes built in conjunction with that road.
Wickstrom said that right now there is no Committee action that will open the road. It will
be dependent upon the property owner that abuts the unimproved right-of-way. We
haven't had any inquiries from that property owner about development so we cannot
predict when this will happen. Wickstrom explained that this would follow the plat process
which involves a Hearing Examiner's determination; they hold a public hearing; we
determine conditions to be put on the development of the plat; those conditions are
I
reviewed and are made public at that meeting; at that time the Hearing Examiner takes
comments from all citizens. Once the Examiner makes a recommendation on the plat
conditions, those plat conditions are then approved by Council at a formal meeting.
Wickstrom said that there are opportunities for citizens within the area to comment - they
are notified if they are within 200 feet of that development. Wickstrom said what we are
concerned about is, by not extending 100th to 240th this means all the traffic from this high
density area will go thru the other neighborhood streets or, force them thru congested
arterial intersections which could potentially cause safety problems.
Wickstrom stated that Public Works does not support this petition at this time mainly
because we see this area zoned as a high density single family residential area. He noted
the following points:
The extension would relieve other neighborhood streets from unnecessary traffic
burdens associated with eventual full development of this.
The extension would add unnecessary congestion to some of our key intersections
in this vicinity which could create some safety issues.
100th Ave SE has been and is identified as a neighborhood collector arterial with
the intent of tying 240th to 248th which are both minor arterials.
100th Ave SE is also classified as a primary route for non-motorized facilities in the
City's Comprehensive Transportation Plan. Over the past seven years as that area has
developed, 100th Ave has been developed as a collector arterial with the necessary width
and curb, gutter and sidewalks accordingly.
Lastly, we do have a Neighborhood Traffic Control Program that if the concerns of
the citizens raised do occur, we have a program in place to try to resolve those issues.
Wickstrom stated that this is the background on this issue relating to engineering.
Wickstrom again reiterated that the only thing happening on 100th Ave now, is the
construction of a path from 244th to the end of the existing road which is at the south
property line of the East Hill Elementary School. He said that Council could take action
now and say 100th Ave can never be opened or Council could wait until a plat is
developed adjacent to it.
At this time Mann requested that the memorandum submitted by Wickstrom to the
Committee be distributed to the interested parties at the meeting. Mann then opened the
meeting to questions from the citizens.
The property owners in attendance expressed their concerns with the extension of 100th
Ave noting that they had moved into a quiet residential neighborhood and the increase in
traffic on 100th Ave would be a detriment. They also expressed concerns for their children
2
walking to the East Hill Elementary School.
Wickstrom again went over the requirements of a plat being developed in their
neighborhood.
In response to a question from the audience regarding the criteria for road improvements,
Wickstrom said a developer needs to widen the south half of the road in order to handle
a lane of traffic. Regarding S. 244th St. -Wickstrom said that S. 244th is a condition of the
plat. The developer needs to complete those conditions in order to build. Right now it is
being improved to the east boundary line of Canterbury. He will have to construct
transitions on the south side of his north piece so that the traffic will flow thru there without
causing safety issues.
Ed White stated we really don't have many options available for future roads in the area.
If we cut people off, we would be committed to impacting roadways that are not designed
for that type of traffic. There would be a limitation on emergency vehicle response as well
as severely curtailing the development potential on the property.
Tim Clark asked if there was a way to design S. 244th so it can provide access without
ever requiring 100th Ave to be extended. Wickstrom stated that designing it is not the
problem; the issue is how it fits into the overall traffic grid for the city. Everything to the
south has been developed to fit that - all the improvements down to 248th have been built
and were predicated upon that extension thru there.
Mann asked if something could be done regarding, what he feels is a mis-communication
issue between the public and city response to questions. Wickstrom stated that when we
are dealing with employees who are apt to change positions and without the same
employee, they may not have gathered the full knowledge of what's happening. However,
now we do have a Comprehensive Plan under the Growth Management which does
identify the major arterials. Clark asked about a "check off system". Mann asked if there
was a way thru the city's computer network where the information could accessed.
Wickstrom stated that we are not yet that sophisticated with our computer network system
and to do so will take considerable manpower.
Committee requested that the 100th Ave extension item be brought back to the July 10th
Committee meeting for further discussion .
LID 330 SEGREGATION ASSESSMENT#6
Wickstrom explained that this property is in Van Doren's Landing and we need to adjust
the boundary to segregate the properties.
3
Committee unanimously recommended adoption of Resolution # for the
segregation of Assessment #6 in LID 330.
METRICOM. INC.
Brubaker explained that this system works on an FCC unlicensed frequency and it creates
a grid network system which allows portable computers to communicate with each other
without using a telephone line. Brubaker asked the Committee for authorization to enter
into a franchise agreement with a nominal one time fee; probably no franchise fee after
that; a franchise for a term of 5 years renewable for an additional 5 years. Metricom's
representative stated that they are offering a reduced rate for city access to the cities
where they have facilities in place.
Committee unanimously recommended that the Metricom Inc Franchise Ordinance be
presented for a first reading at the next Council meeting.
Meeting adjourned: 5:30 p.m.
