Two members were re-appointed, a new member was appointed to January 1 , 1 ccc and another new member was appointed to fill an unexpired term to January 1 . 1997. The committee is chaired by a councilmember and staffed by the project coordinator. A public education specialist was hired in August 1995- at 25 hours per week. During the past ten months the committee met seven times. In addition to annual projects such as the youth conference and the design contest, priority activities have included safety belt education, support for the Victim's Pane!, the WLCB Serve' Training Program, a Youth Violence Committee (* new activity - Community Mobilization), the Domestic Violence Task Force and numerous public education events and services. Proiec: funding, volunteer time, and staffing levels have driven the prioritization of work plan activities. The Steering Committee receives regular program updates and reviews/recommends activity areas and levels. Public Information Speaker Bureau volunteers and staff made 52 community presentations to audiences totalinc 38,629 individuals; total reached since the program's inception in May of 1983 is 480,433.

Alcohol Involved Collision Statistics Traffic safety continues to be a city and community concern; road construction along with population and employment increases contribute to a high crash rate in Kent. City of Kent Police Department figures show that accidents within the city decreased each year between 1990 and 1993, then rose slightly above the 1992 level with 1 ,312 investicated accidents during 1994. Injury collisions have decreased from a high in 1986 of 16,5 per 1,000 drivers to a low of 12.1 per 1 ,000 drivers in 1994. Coilision rates for the same period have decreased from 45.9 per 11 ,000 drivers in 1986 to a new low of 29.9 in 1993, then increased very siightly in 1994 to 30 per 1 ,000 drivers. The percent of alcohol involvement peaked at 12% in 1986, then decreased to 41,1C in 1988. Since 1988 the percent of alcohol involvement has remained quite stable, ranging from four to five percent of all collisions. DUI cites since 1983 are represented below: Year DUI Cites % Chanae Year DUI Cites % Change 1983 374 1989 351 1984 312 - 17% 1990 350 04c 1985 328 + 5% 1991 356 + 2°c 1986 276 - 16% 1992 316 13°0 1987 177 - 36% 1993 247 225c 1988 227 + 289'o 1994 223 1041c, 1995 183 18% The South King County DWI Task Force ceased operating briefly during 1995, then was re- activated quarterly under the direction of the Fort of Seattle.

Victim's Panels Started in April 1994, the Kent-sponsored Victim's Panel is facilitated by Larry and Shirley Anderson. Attendance is increasinc as courts become aware of its' availability. 292 attended classes in the past ten months. Violence An epidemiclogic review of youth violence data shows the need for intervention and prevention programs to be comprehensive in two ways. First, they need to deal with multipie problem behaviors (e.g. drug use, precocious sexual activity, juvenile gangs, school failure) and they need to address the multiple and interlocking cause associated with delinquency. In addition, research supports the need for long term programs that provide social and psychological support to adolescents. 1) Domestic Violence Task Force This interagency organization has been meeting since January 1995. About fifty people from several city departments and the community meet monthly for the purpose of creating a coordinated, comprehensive and community response to domestic abuse that gives the consistent message that domestic violence is a crime and will not be tolerated. The members promote victim safety, community awareness, and abuser accountability through education, prevention, intervention and treatment. Activities include service provision overview, a video production, panel discussions, attendance at conferences and the development of '96 goals and tasks. 2) South Kino Countv Youth Violence Committee Chaired by Kent Police Chief Ed Crawford, 35 individuals represent agencies and organizations within an eight school district area of South King County, The King County Commission on Family and Children awarded $61 ,000 to the Youth Violence Committee to further a community-wide approach to reducing and preventing youth violence.

SUBJECT: FIRE FACILITIES MAINTENANCE POSITION - AUTHORIZATION TO EXPAND 2 . SUMMARY STATEMENT: Approval to upgrade a temporary Fire Facilities Maintenance position to full time. Fire Administration has reviewed this request with City Administration and the Operation Committee. This was a result of the workload, use of these personnel for emergency and non- emergency functions, and past layoffs that have severely taxed this unit. The Fire Department also reviewed future needs to address use of this unit in an expanded form to help free up firefighter productivity time for greater overall productivity and effectiveness. The Operations Committee unanimously approved this request with the understanding that City and Fire Administration would work with other city agencies to evaluate the best future alternatives for dealing with the long-term needs as they relate to the department operational needs and the overall City operations. 3 .

CITY COUNCIL ACTION: Councilmember moves, Councilmember seconds DISCUSSION: ACTION Council Agenda Item No. 3J MEMORANDUM MAY 5, 1996 TO: BRENT McFALL, DIRECTOR OF OPERATIONS FROM: NORM ANGELO, FIRE CHIEF SUBJECT: POSITION PROPOSAL ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Attached is a proposal with background from Battalion Chief Scott who oversees our facilities maintenance. I believe it is worth sharing their letter, if for no other reason than their ability to share their hard work and frustrations with our current situation, I believe it is worth sharing their letter. The department will be proposing in future budgets and department strategic planning processes that we use civilian maintenance personnel to take over routine but essential maintenance currently performed by firefighters. Due to the impact on emergency operations and safety, these other areas of maintenance such as hose, ladder, small emergency equipment, live burn simulator maintenance, etc., must remain under the direction of the Fire Department. One natural place to put it would be under the Facilities Maintenance Unit of the Fire Department. This follows the guidelines of the Fire Master Plan and would help to free up firefighters time for higher priority tasks. I will provide you with a more detailed synopsis as we further develop the multi-year proposal. However, I wanted to share it partially now as it relates to Battalion Chief Scott's concerns. I agree with much of his concerns. The position upgrade we are requesting is the result of the loss of previous positions and the reduced utilization of part time positions under the labor contract. I believe that the request does not fully address our current needs, but it would allow us to secure a stable position to minimally address the current workload. Whether or not our other proposal were accepted and funded, this mid year position would be essential for any future direction we might take on facility maintenance of Fire Stations. I would propose the $19,000 be provided from the unexpended large year end payment the Fire District made. This could cover costs in 1996 with the upgraded position being folded into the 1997 budget. Hopefully the Meridian Annexation or Country Club could help offset this. Even with this position we would find ourselves significantly below the ratio of maintenance support staff that is considered essential in so many other facilities and grounds maintenance in the rest of the City. I request your strongest consideration in this matter. 1 PROPOSAL TITLE: Facility/ Grounds Maintenance Position APPROXIMATE COST: Salary $31,764 (AF 25A) Approximate Benefits $8,894 (Approximately $19,000 for half year) BUDGET OBJECTIVE: To replace a previously existing Facility/Grounds Maintenance position. We can no longer continue to operate our building and ground maintenance division without adding to staff. Current records show projects and work orders dating back to late 1994 awaiting resolution. Emergent problems have reached the point where we respond from one "crisis" to the next. Many smaller, lower priority work orders must therefore be delayed and fall into the category of "deferred maintenance". The shower stalls at Fire Station 72 are just one example of how deferred maintenance impacts the Fire Department. We have shower stalls in Fire Station 72 that have needed to be addressed for some time. We know that we will need to replace not only the cracked and broken shower stalls but due to deferring this project we may also need to replace portions of the framework behind the stalls damaged by dry rot. The cost of a couple of fiberglass shower stalls and fixtures is enough, now we must plan for framing materials and additional labor hours to complete the fix correctly. It may be a small item but the compounded costs over a number of projects adds up quickly. These delays lead to frustration, apathy and anger on the part of other employees living in the facilities who view a lack of quick action addressing these problems as a symptoms of general organizational decay. We are continually juggling priorities to soothe our co-workers. This "in your face" type of interaction is not the way I would prefer to operate. While we continue to move forward the impression among co-workers is that the maintenance division is not doing their job. This could not be farther from the truth. In fact the inability to address problems in a timely manner has a negative impact on our maintenance staff. I know for a fact that they are discouraged and frustrated. They do not like to operate in a situation that does not speak for the pride that they have for this Department. Employee pride is not just the personal feelings of our maintenance staff, it spans the entire Department impacting the quality of work produced, meeting of deadlines and goals and has tremendous impacts upon the productivity of the suppression crews. We have strived to impart a feeling of ownership to all employees of the Fire Department. That level of commitment is needed to insure that the relationships between the Divisions continues to foster voluntary cooperation towards maintaining our facilities. There is a growing feeling among some members of the Fire Department, that maintenance is taking on a lower priority than it deserves, resulting in a growing reluctance to continue to assist our short handed maintenance staff. We need to reverse this trend. We need to re-commit our people towards greater accountability in maintaining our facilities with the limited maintenance staff at our disposal. Filling this Facility/Grounds Maintenance position will send a message to the rest of the Department that we are serious about this issue. 1 While employee impression of the state of facilities is one issue, the other issue is manifested in comments we receive from the public. It is tough to explain to them that we are taking care of their property when the grass is mid calf length and full of weeds and moss, or when siding is falling off of the building, or when water appears on the carpet from leaking roofs. The list goes on. I am aware of the City's view on the Fire Department Maintenance Division and have worked within the system to provide care for eleven (11) buildings and many many acres of landscaping with two people and a (four?, five?, or eight? month) employee. We have utilized inmates where we could, but issues of security and supervision have relegated this option to the bottom of the list; community service children have been inserted during school breaks and holidays where applicable but this too is little more that a baby sitting service and ties up one of our full time staff to boot. We have been asked to do more with less and have strived to keep up for over five years while at the same time, we have seen other Departments in the City refill positions lost during the "troubles" in Kent. I talked with Sue Viseth on 3/29 and was informed that the status of our temporary employee had changed, I became very frustrated. While we talked at length about a number of options potentially available to us, it was apparent that all of these issues are things best discussed between the Director of Operations, Chief Angelo and Human Resources. I feel strongly enough about this issue to add my unsolicited commentary. First, I understand the Fire Departments preferred direction towards utilizing civilian staff to perform lower priority tasks currently performed by uniformed personnel. This concept is directly related to and defined within the Fire Master Plan. While I certainly agree with this concept, I would like to further state that these tasks, (hose testing, hydrant inspection, record keeping, and so on), need to be managed and directed by the Fire Department. The success of this type of program hinges on experience and expertise, which the Fire Department currently provides. Currently, it would be impossible for our Facilities/Grounds maintenance staff to accomplish these tasks. This is due to our current state of staffing, and outrageous level of demand. Given the position that we have asked for, we will slow the descent into chaos. Given the resources to accomplish the intent of the Fire Master Plan, we can certainly handle the scheduling and management of the proposed duties of additional civilian support staff needed to handle the given level of tasks. There is also the issue of the Fire District 937 employee which allows the Fire District to provide the level of revenue it currently does. This person is a skilled and valued employee. 2 Secondly, I am aware that the major buildings in the City, (Commons, City Hall, Senior Center, etc.) have full time dedicated staff specifically assigned to a to these buildings. We would feel that our three employees are less than the minimum staff required to meet the needs of our 1 I (eleven) buildings. There are several reasons for them being dedicated to the Fire Department. There is a question of security and security codes used throughout the system. Security sensitive areas demand minimal access and we need to continue the practice of limiting the number of people who are able to access these areas, (Fire Stations, Computer and Communication areas, Gun Range, Drill Tower, Fire/Police Training areas, Substations, and so on). Additionally, our current staff is completely familiar with every aspect of our building systems. This fact is the primary reason that we have held together so long. These staff are also utilized routinely to handle support functions at emergency scenes and during extended emergency operations. Finally, we have many situations that require immediate resolution. Failure, or faults in our environmental systems certainly impact our 24 hour living conditions inside of our Fire Stations, some even pose significant health and safety issues that must be remedied at once. We can ill afford to give up this important advantage of having dedicated staff knowledgeable of our operations and facilities under our direction. There are many instances where we cannot wait "until monday", nor leave an unresolved emergency awaiting disposition from a another source. As it exists now, we get immediate attention to these problems by people who are intimately familiar with the system, on call twenty four hours a day. Unfortunately, we are no longer staffed to do much more than hang on. Sue mentioned that one of the concerns of the City is that we currently are replicating budget responsibilities across Divisions. I would like to point out there are advantages to establishing a separate budget for maintaining eleven (11) buildings, additionally we are concerned about our current ability for direct and timely purchase of materials, services, equipment, tools and maintenance supplies that are unique to a 24 hours work/living environment. The impact of losing this budget would have a direct and profound negative impact on our ability to function effectively. I will agree that communications and sharing of information between all City Departments has been extremely helpful in the past. I remain politely skeptical of losing the ability to access a dedicated budget whenever the need arises. We would ask that we be allowed to retain allocated funding for our facilities maintenance. While the revenue available to the Fire Department Maintenance Division has remained stable, demand for our limited funds is continuing to grow. As these buildings begin to deteriorate, the cost of repairing and replacing equipment and maintenance materials has increased to the point where we quit worrying about fixing certain things around September and plan on addressing them "next year". It used to be that we would reach that point in late November or early 3 December. I had a concern that we had reached that point as early as January during 1995. This last issue underscores the need to keep dedicated staff on site to minimize our outgoing costs as much as possible. The dedication of this staff and their ownership of the Fire Department mission has enabled us to save the community hundreds of thousands of dollars over the years. This past spring we advertised for an eight month employee to function as a landscape/grounds keeper and general maintenance person. Late in the process, we were informed that we could only hire a five month employee. We have enough work to keep a full time grounds keeper/maintenance person employed for twelve months a year. Grounds maintenance at the seven station sites requires one person to work 40 hours per week with occasional overtime just to keep up with mowing grass and maintaining landscaping. We had expected to hire an eight month employee to manage this portion of the work from April to November, this would include the time needed at the end of the season to maintain and repair equipment and prepare it for winter storage. That does not highlight our need for the remaining four months of the year. Current estimated cost of hiring an outside landscaping company starts at a mere $54,000 for a ten (10) month period, and goes up from there. One estimate received for just maintaining Fire Station 74 ran $51,000 per ten (10) month period. I agree that this is too high. I have estimated that a single grade AF 25A scale employee would run about 531,764 per year (not including benefits) D.O.Q.. Compared to the landscaping company, this is a steal. It is my understanding that the Parks Department would be reluctant to tackle our seven sites without additional staff and equipment. Under these circumstances, and with this information, we respectfully ask for help. While I could dazzle you with statistics about the number heating and cooling units we service in a year, the acres of lawn we mow, the numbers of work orders received, and so on. It would not convey the necessity of dealing with this issue of staffing. I can say that the budget shortfalls we have recorded over the past several years is directly proportional to added workload. In January 1995, we knew our outside accounts would end in the red just two weeks into the new year. This year , while not as dramatic as last year, will certainly end in the red as well. I must state unequivocally that the reasons we see ourselves revisiting the red side of the ledger is not related to a lack of budget planning or management. Nor are we in the red because of a lack of proper managing of work priorities. It is more directly related to obsolescence of technology, failure of equipment that must be repaired, and a need to hire outside vendors to accomplish certain tasks that our current staff cannot spare time for. We have requested increases in certain budget areas year after year in attempt to prepare ourselves for the unavoidable demands of building maintenance and have been turned down. An example of this type of budget forecasting is related to maintenance and repair of heating and cooling systems. We have experienced failure in electronic controls, condensers and other components of these systems over the past several years. In fact the budget blow out during January 1995 was directly related to the failure of three of these systems during a single week, (two at Station 74 and one at the Gun Range). We then requested budget increases to cover anticipated future maintenance costs related to these systems and were turned down. 4 Other short falls are related to purchase replacements for worn out equipment and appliances, and to building deterioration where we have had to react to the "emergency" due to deferring maintenance. We do not like to operate this way. We have had no other alternative. We have requested staff and budget increases each year and have been asked to hold the line. There isn't much to the line anymore. In the past, Chief Angelo has tried to emphasize our situation. Now, I would like to state for the record that we are in trouble. No complaints,just fact. I drafted this letter as a means of stating what Chief Angelo has already stated year after year. This letter is in my own style, short, sweet and direct. Chief Angelo is responsible for managing and maintaining this Fire Department. I am responsible for managing and directing a maintenance program for the Department. We are caught in the middle of something that is becoming increasingly unmanageable. We believe that we can pick up a full time position in June for a cost to the City of about $19,000 dollars, (including benefits). We would be requesting about $19,000 dollars for a mid year adjustment. The following year would require an expenditure of about $31,764, (not including benefits). If you take out the amount budgeted for a part time position at $10,234 the bottom line would be an increase of about $21,530 plus the cost of benefits. I know that you receive a myriad of requests and input from all Departments and I probably reflect the flavor of most. I think that both you and Mayor White have taken great strides in turning the City around. I was glad to hear that you were leaving Federal Way and coming back. I heard the message that the Mayor sent that the City would begin taking care of the things we currently have. I believe him. The actions of the City towards maintaining our current assets makes sense and I applaud you for it. I think it is our turn now. If you have questions of me or my staff, we would be happy to answer them. Sincerely, Mike Scott, Battalion Chief Administrative Officer Kent Fire Department lm 5 /Z/1 Kent City Council Meeting Date August 6. 1996 Category Consent Calendar 1. SUBJECT: BUILDING INSPECTOR POSITION (REGIONAL JUSTICE CENTER) AUTHORIZATION 2 . SUMMARY STATEMENT: As recommended by the Operations Committee, authorize one (1) building inspector position to accommodate the intensified workload created by the Regional Justice Center in its current and completion stages. This position authorization will terminate at completion of the RJC, as will that for the one other RJC inspector position previously authorized. Costs will be more than covered by the RJC project fund, established by Council with RJC permit fees, as for the first position. After paying costs for both positions, remaining fund balance is estimated at $50, 000 at conclusion of the RJC, to be transferred to the General Fund. 3 .

CITY COUNCIL ACTION: Councilmember moves, Councilmember seconds DISCUSSION: ACTION• Council Agenda Item No. 3K OPERATIONS COMMITTEE MINUTES JULaY 17, 1996 COMMITTEE MEMBERS PRESENT: Jon Johnson-Committee Chair, Jim Bennett, Leona Orr STAFF PRESENT: Norm Angelo, Mary Berg, Becky Fowler, Bob Hutchinson, Brent McFall, May Miller, Kelli O'Donnell, Mike Scott, Sue Viseth MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC: None The meeting was called to order at 4A1 p.m. by Chairperson Johnson. 42proval of Voucbers: All claims for the period ending July 15, 1996 in the amount of$1,654,052.81 were approved for payment. Ma-v Financial Report Director of Finance May Miller reviewed the May financial report with the Committee. During her review of the report, May noted on page 13 that the sales tax received from services and manufacturing was below budget as a result of the State legislative exemption. She cautioned that the full impacts from these new exemptions won't be known until September and that there is a possibility that an additional exemption for research and development may be given by the legislature. Miller explained that the loss of this revenue could cause a significant shortfall in the City of Kent's sales tax revenue and needs to be watched closely. Director of Operations Brent McFall added that the legislature took this action to stimulate business. The State has the option to recover the revenue through B & O taxes. The city also has the option of adding a B&O tax but has refrained from this in the past to promote businesses. By the State's action the city may be forced into using this tax although it has always been viewed as a disincentive to businesses. Committeemember Orr asked if there was any chance that the State will reverse their position. McFall responded that he didn't think they would and the current strategy of the cities affected is to stop the bleeding and work to stop any more exemptions. Miller noted that there is still a small hope for some mitigation although warehousing is also being considered for additional sessions which would really hurt Kent with our large warehousing base. Orr asked if the legislative report on electrical deregulation would impact Kent. McFall responded in reading our ordinance, we may not be affected. Miller noted that gross revenues are taxed no matter where the electricity is bought from but staff will continue to investigate this issue. She noted that the potential property tax rollback would also negatively impact revenue and needs to be monitored. May finished her review of the May financial report. Authorization to Exl2and Fire Facilities Maintenance Position to Full Time/1996 Budget Adjustment Fire Chief Norm Angelo stated that the fire maintenance personnel have been stretched since the layoffs a number of years ago. He noted that over 15 acres of landscaped area surrounds the fire facilities and 104,000 square feet of building is maintained relating to emergency facilities such as doors, air ventilation, generators, etc. He explained that the Fire Department depends on the maintenance personnel not only for routine maintenance but also call them back for emergencies. To meet the current demands, Chief Angelo requested that the current temporary part time position be upgraded to a permanent full time position. He noted that this will not totally satisfy the needs but will provide for the opportunity to research a multi-year program to more efficiently utilize personnel by using some civilian personnel in-line with the fire master plan. Chief Angelo emphasized that this addition will pay for itself just by adequately doing preventative maintainance of facilities saving future repair costs. Committee Chair Jon Johnson asked if the $19,000 from the unexpended Fire District payment would go into the general fund without this proposal. McFall confirmed that it would but explained that this is OPERATIONS COMMITTEE MINUTES, CONT. , ITT 1 Y 171 1996 showing that there is some unanticipated revenue to cover this expense. Angelo noted that the ongoing costs will be more expensive and be addressed through the annexation budget. This proposal will just cover the remainder of this year. Committeemember Bennett asked if there was the ability through interdepartmental transfers to address the needs on an interim basis. Angelo replied that option had been looked at as well as contracting out. He noted that it was found that contracting out just the landscaping and mowing would cost one and a half times as much as this position. Other departments have previously indicated that they are at their capacity and could take on these duties if three or four more personnel were added. Angelo indicated this is a bare minimum proposal. He noted that it is critical that if a door wont open on the weekend to have someone familiar with the system to come back immediately to get the engine out the door. McFall added that it is currently being explored whether the Fire Departments building grounds maintenance should be a part of the overall facilities division that has responsibility for all other city buildings at this time. A decision hasn't been made as yet but the staffing needs are there regardless of whether it is ultimately out of the Fire Department, Parks, or Facilities, McFall explained. Angelo noted that there are a number of repairs that are not being adequately addressed that could result in additional capital costs. This position would not fully meet all of the current needs now. He requested that the position be granted. Bennett suggested that it be added now and as part of the 1997 budget the maintenance issue be addressed. Angelo noted that it is important to have some consistency into 1997. After further discussion, Committeemember Orr moved to recommend authorization to expand part time Fire Facilities Maintenance position to full time with the necessary budget adjustments to allocate $19,000 from the unexpended Fire District revenues. Bennett seconded the motion for discussion. Orr suggested that the position be added now noting that in November and October the budget will be under consideration and a number of positions may be looked at if the revenue worsens in the next few months. As the discussion progressed McFall noted that this is the type of analysis that is done in budget preparation and recommendations would be brought back to the Committee. Bennett agreed that it would be wise to look at the overall maintenance as part of the 1997 budget process. Committee Chair Johnson asked for a vote on Orr's motion. The motion passed ) Authorization to Hire a Second Building Infector Position for the RTC Project/1996 Project Budget Adjustment McFall reminded the Committee that over a year ago when the impacts of the RJC had been realized, the permit fees had been set aside in a special program to meet permit staffing requirements. As discussed at that time, we are now coming back with additional inspection needs. Building Official Bob Hutchinson stated that there have been some changes since the item was brought forward. The project started later and will end later. One inspector position had been added previously and it is now being requested to add the second inspector position to be filled by October 1. This will result in three or four months less time than had originally been anticipated. Hutchinson reported that it is estimated that a balance of$50,000 of the permit fee revenue will be transfered to the general fund upon completion of the project after expenses. He added that it is anticipated that during the peak of the project in December, January, and February the need for 400 inspection hours a month is anticipated. Hutchinson noted that staff has looked for ways to acconnnodate these needs without additional staff and with other building activity throughout the city there would be too many negative impacts. Bennett commented the need for timely inspections is critical to everyone. During further discussion it was noted that both RJC inspector positions will only be terminated at completion of the project. Page 2 CITY OF KENT PLANNING DEPARTMENT DEVELOPMENT SERVICES DIVISION (206) 859-3360 MEMORANDUM July 12, 1996 TO: Council Operations Committee: Jon Johnson, Committee Chair; Leona Orr; Jim Bennett FROM: Bob Hutchinson, Building Official SUBJECT: Regional Justice Center Inspections The Regional Justice Center (RJC) construction has been in progress for about 12 months, with about 9 1/2 yet to go before completion, projected to be on or about March 31, 1997. Building inspection staff, including one position authorized for this project's workload, have thus far been able to meet this demand without compromising service to other development and construction in the City. However, inspection workload demand for this project has accelerated,and is expected to continue to accelerate, and the City will shortly be unable to maintain these service levels without additional inspection staff. Demand is now consistently exceeding the time available from one full-time inspector and outrunning combined inspection team capacity. A real and immediate need for additional inspection staff is apparent. Funding is available in the RJC project fund, established by Council on February 21, 1995 with RJC permit fees. This fund has since been augmented by fees for ancillary permits (plumbing, mechanical, etc.), and used to pay the costs of the initial building inspector position authorized at that time. Sufficient monies remain to continue the existing position; add a second position to be filled as soon as possible (approximately October 1, 1996); and leave a surplus of about $50,000 to be transferred to the General Fund at the project's completion. PROPOSAL: In order to meet the increasing demand for inspections at the RJC project without compromising service to the rest of the City's customers and citizens, staff proposes that: ■ The Council authorize a second building inspector position to be paid from the existing RJC project fund budget, to be hired approximately October 1, 1996. ■ All other terms of the Council authorization to establish the project fund and fill the first such position remain unchanged. RECOMMENDATION: The Operations Committee recommend to Council that a second building inspector position be authorized in the Regional Justice Center project budget. All other terms of the February 21,1995 Council approval remain unchanged, with authorization for both positions to terminate and remaining funds to be transferred to the General Fund upon conclusion of the RJC project.

DISCUSSION: ACTION: Council Agenda Item No. 4A CITY OF a Jim White, Mayor Planning Department (206) 859-3390/FAX(206) 850-2544 James P. Harris, Planning Director MEMORANDUM August 6, 1996 MEMO TO: MAYOR JIM WHITE AND CITY COUNCIL MEMBERS FROM: JAMES P. HARRIS, PLANNING DIRECTOR SUBJECT: PACIFIC TERRACE PRELIMINARY PLAT 4SU-96-12 On June 19, 1996, the Kent Hearing Examiner held a public hearing to consider a request by Paciic Industries, Inc. for a 25-lot single family residential preliminary subdivision. The property is appoximately 4.79 acres in size, and is located at 10605, 10707, 10717 SE 248th Street in Kent, Washington. On July 3, 1996, the Hearing Examiner recommended approval of this preliminary subdivision with the following conditions: A. Prior to recordation of the PACIFIC TERRACE subdivision: 1. The subdivider/developer shall comply with all applicable conditions of the Determination of Non-Significance for the Pacific Terrace Subdivision(ENV-96-29). a) The subdivider/developer shall execute an environmental mitigation agreement to participate in, and pay a fair share of the construction costs of the City's South 272nd/277th Street Corridor Project. The minimum benefit to the subdivider/developer is estimated at$23,496 based upon 22 AiVI/PM Peak Hour Trips and the capacity of the South 272nd/277th Street Corridor. The final benefit value will be determined based on the number of lots approved upon the final plat map multiplied times $1068 ( in 1986 dollars ) and as adjusted for inflation. b) The subdivider/developer shall construct a 5 foot wide paved shoulder as a pedestrian walkway along South 248th Street from the easterly terminus of the sidewalk improvements on South 248th Street,constructed in conjunction with this plat to 109th Avenue Southeast. c) The subdivider/developer shall revise the configuration of Lots 24 and 25 to consolidate access via 26-foot wide private access tract, per City Standards a gravity sanitary sewer system to serve all lots. The sewer system shall be 220 Jih AVE.SO.. /DENT.WASHINOTON 9,4031-5R05/TELEPHONE I]Oh7g59-3',00I FAX#ffi9-3334 Pacific Terrace Preliminary Plat#SU-96-12 August 6, 1996 extended to Southeast 248th Street and along the entire plat frontage thereon, and shall be sized to serve all off-site properties within the same service area. d) All existing driveway(s) onto Southeast 248th Street shall be eliminated, and moved/reconfigured to place them onto 108th Court Southeast. e) The subdivider/developer shall waive abutter's access rights across the entire frontage of the subdivision on Southeast 248th Street, east of 108th Court Southeast, as well as across the entire frontage of Lot 2 -- except as required for Mitigation Measure 94. Said access restriction shall be clearly stated upon the face of the subdivision map. f) The subdivider/developer shall execute a signal participation covenant to financially participate in, and pay a proportionate cost of the, the future installation of a fully-actuated traffic signalization system(s) at the intersection of Southeast 248th Street at 116th Avenue Southeast. 2. Prior to preliminary plat approval the owner/subdivider for this development shall submit a detailed drainage plan including: infiltration retention for the 100-year, 24- hour design storm(preferred), or detention meeting the requirements for open pond detention meeting the requirements for the Hill if the owner/ subdivider's engineer provides evidence that infiltration is not feasible; above ground stormwater treatment; conveyance and full flow velocities for the 100-year, 24-hour design storm; and a detailed downstream analysis for at least one-quarter mile downstream from the point of discharge from the proposed plat.

INTRODUCTION After due consideration of all the evidence presented at public hearing on the date indicated above, and following an unaccompanied personal inspection of the subject property and surrounding area by the Hearing Examiner at a time prior to the public hearing, the following findings, conclusions and recommendation are entered by the Hearing Examiner on this application. SUMMARY OF PROCEDURE A public hearing was held on June 19, 1996 in the City of Kent Chambers West. All present were given an opportunity to testify and present evidence. During the public hearing, the City presented a recommendation of approval with conditions and the applicant testified he accepted the city's recommendation with a few clarifications. One citizen (Mr. Minor) testified with concerns about the stormwater drainage plan. The applicant's representatives were given an opportunity to address Mr. Minor's Concerns in a separate meeting off the record. The applicant's representatives and Mr. Minor did so and came to an agreement involving cooperation on stormwater drainage systems that is incorporated into this recommendation. The Hearings Examiner now enters the following Findings, Conclusions and Recommendation. FINDINGS 1. The owner of the property proposed for subdivision is Pacific Industries, Inc. of Bellevue, Washington. Exhibit 1, Application. The applicant was represented at the public hearing by Mr. Paul Morrow, Project Supervisor, and Mr. Mel Daley, Project Engineer. 2. The property proposed for subdivision is located at 10605, 10707 and 10717 SE 248th Street. Exhibit 1, Staff Report. 3. The property is 4.79 acres. The applicant proposes twenty five single family lots with the smallest lot of 5,700 square feet. The applicant submitted a site plan dated January 25, 1996, that shows all lots in conformance with minimum lot size requirements. Exhibit 1, Site Plan. 4. The property is zoned SR-6 with a 5,700 square foot minimum lot size. The Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map designates the property as SF-6, Single Family Residential with six dwelling units per acre. Exhibit 1, Staff Report. 2 Hearing Examiner Findings and Recommendation Pacific Terrace PSU-96-12 5. Land use all around the property proposed for subdivision is residential. There are townhomes to the east, multifamily residences to the south and a few single family residences in the area. Exhibit 1, Staff Report. 6. There are several significant trees of 6-inch caliper or greater on the property. Many of these trees can be preserved to enhance the aesthetic value of the area as well as help control stormwater runoff and water quality. A tree retention plan has not yet been submitted to the City. Exhibit ], Staff Report. 7. The site would be accessed off of SE 2481h Street (a Residential Collector Street)that both carries average of 3,500 vehicle trips per day. The traffic impacts from the proposed development would be 22 PM Peak Hour trips per day. Exhibit 1, MDNS. This increase in number of vehicles will contribute to the congestion of surrounding streets if no improvements are made to those streets. Improvements should include street widening, lighting, drainage and walkways. A bicycle lane is also important to help reduce the number of motor vehicles associated with development of the subject property. The applicant has agreed to mitigate traffic impacts associated with the proposed development. Exhibit 1, 11'IDNS(There was no appeal of this); Testimony of Air. Morrow. S. The City of Kent water system and sanitary sewer system can be extended to each lot. Stormwater mitigation measures are necessary to ensure no increase in quantity or decrease in quality of water will result if this proposal is approved. Mitigation measures have been agreed to by the applicant, the city and the neighbors surrounding the proposed development and will address stormwater quantity and quality issues. Testimony of Mr. Dennis Minor; Exhibit 1, MDNS (There was no appeal of this); Testimony of Mr. Morrow; Testimony of Ms. Bradley. 9. The environmental review for this application resulted in a conclusion by the City's Responsible Official that the project has no probable significant adverse impacts on the environment that cannot be mitigated. A final Mitigated Determination of Nonsignificance (MDNS) was issued for the proposed subdivision on April 30, 1996 pursuant to the State Environmental Policy Act. It was not appealed by the applicant or any citizen. The conditions of mitigation address several areas of environmental concern including traffic impacts, stormwater detention facilities and dedication of land for utilities and streets. Exhibit 1, MDNS. 10. Public notice of this application was given by posting, publication and mailing. Exhibit 1, Affidavits of Harris and Holden. 11. At the public hearing, the Planning Department recommended approval of this application subject to specific conditions. A citizen who lives near the proposed subdivision expressed concerns about the surface water runoff created by the development and asked that the proposal be further examined to determine if the proposed development would impact these 3 Hearing Examiner Findings and Recommendation Pacific Terrace #SU-96-12 existing wells. Testimony of Mr. Minor. The applicant agreed to continue the hearing in order to provide additional information to Mr. Minor and address his concerns. This information was provided and addresses the concerns of the public that testified at the hearing. Exhibit 2; Testimony of Mr. Daley. CONCLUSIONS 1.

COMPREHENSIVE PLAN The City of Kent recently adopted a GMA Comprehensive Land Use Plan in April 1995. The goals and policies of the Comprehensive Plan represent an expression of community intentions and aspirations concerning the future of Kent and the area within the Sphere of Interest. The Comprehensive Plan is used by the Mayor,City Council,Land Use and Planning Hearings Board,Hearing Examiner and City departments to guide growth, development, and spending decisions. Residents, land developers, business representatives and others may refer to the plan as a statement of the City's intentions concerning future development. KENT COMPREHENSIVE PLAN The City of Kent Comprehensive Plan is made up of eleven elements which contain written goals and policies as well as a land use map. The Kent Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map designates the project site as SF-6, Single Family Residential, six units per acre maximum. 4 Staff Report Pacific Terrace #SU-96-12 LAND USE ELEMENT The land use element outlines the proposed general distribution and location of various uses of land within the planning area. The land use element is designed to guide where and when development happens, as well as the character of Kent's development pattern. Goal LU-1: Designate an urban growth area and Potential Annexation Area which will define the City's planning area and projected city limits for the next 20 years. Policv LU-1.1: Provide enough land in the City's urban growth area to accommodate the level of household growth projected to occur in the next 20 years. Goal LU-8: The City of Kent adopts a 20 year housing target of 7,500 new dwelling units within the existing city limits. Coordinate with King County through an interlocal agreement on housing targets in the unincorporated area within Kent's Potential Annexation Area. Policv LU-8.1: Provide in the land use plan adequate land and densities to accommodate both city and county targets within the Potential Annexation Area. Average net residential densities throughout the Potential Annexation Area should be at least four units per acre in order to adequately support urban services. Planning Department Comment: This proposed subdivision supports several of the goals and policies in the land use element. The development of close in vacant or underutilized properties prevents further urban sprawl on the edges of the planning area. In addition, infill development provides a much more efficient means of providing services and enhancing pedestrian opportunities. One of the overall themes of the comprehensive plan is to provide a wide variety of housing types and opportunities to accommodate projected population growth without converting single family land to multifamily. Development of single family subdivisions on vacant single family land is supportive of this theme. 5 Staff Report Pacific Terrace #SU-96-12 HOUSING ELEMENT OVERALL GOAL: ENSURE OPPORTUNITIES FOR AFFORDABLE HOUSING AND AN APPROPRIATE LIVING ENVIRONMENT FOR KENT CITIZENS. Goal H-1: Promote healthy neighborhoods by providing a wide range of housing options throughout the community that are accessible to community and human services, employment opportunities, and transportation, and by being sensitive to the environmental impacts of development. Policv H-1.2: Guide new residential development into areas where community and human services and facilities are available, and in a manner which is compatible with the land use element. Policv H-1.7: Continue to utilize regulatory measures to control impacts of residential development on the environment and on water quality. Review these regulations periodically to assess their overall effectiveness and their impact on housing cost and supply. Planning Department Comment This proposed subdivision supports relevant goals and policies of the housing element. The proposed location is easily and well served by existing human services and facilities. The potential impacts of this project have been reviewed under the State Environmental Policy Act, and its impacts have been mitigated for through a conditional Determination of Nonsignificance. These impacts include, but are not limited to, water quality and traffic. As mentioned elsewhere in this report, the proposed development is consistent with the land use element including the Land Use Plan Map. TRANSPORTATION ELEMENT OVERALL GOAL: PROVIDE FOR A BALANCED MULTIMODAL TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM WHICH WILL SUPPORT LAND USE PATTERNS AND ADEQUATELY SERVE EXISTING AND FUTURE RESIDENTIAL AND EMPLOYMENT GROWTH WITHIN THE POTENTIAL ANNEXATION AREA. 6 Staff Report Pacific Terrace #SU-96-12 Goal TR-I: Coordinate land use and transportation planning to meet the needs of the City and the requirements of the Growth Management Act. Policv TR-1.2: Coordinate new commercial and residential development in Kent with transportation projects to improve affected roadways. Policv TR-1.3: Fund development of the roads necessary for a complete arterial system serving all travel needs in the planning area (inside and outside the City) through fair share payments by new residential, commercial, and industrial development. Planning Department Comment: Under the Growth Management Act,the City must be able to provide the necessary infrastructure to support new development at the time it is completed. There are existing city sewer and water facilities available to serve the site, and the applicant will be required to build a residential street to provide access. This will be a dedicated public right of way which is integrated into the existing City road network. The City currently has several future corridor projects which are designed to provide better access between Kent's east hill, valley floor, and west hill areas. In addition, these corridors will help slow additional congestion on existing east-west arterials. Through the SEPA process, the applicant will be required to provide a traffic impact study to identify traffic impacts upon the City of Kent road network and traffic signal system caused by the proposed development, or execute an environmental mitigation agreement to financially participate and pay a fair share of the cost associated with the construction of the South 272nd/277th Street Corridor project. The Public Works Department estimates that the proposed development will add an additional 25 peak hour trips and 250 daily trips. ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT ELEMENT Goal ED-2: Maintain a strong policy toward balanced community development. Policv ED-2.1: Encourage home ownership to foster stakeholders in the community. 7 Staff Report Pacific Terrace #SU-96-12 Policv ED-2.3: Encourage new housing development to locate closer to existing public services. Planning Department Comment The proposed preliminary plat will provide additional single family home ownership opportunities in the City of Kent. This can help foster a sense of community as well as increase neighborhood stability. B. STANDARDS FOR GRANTING A SUBDIVISION The purpose of the City of Kent Subdivision Code is to provide rules, regulations, requirements, and standards for subdividing land in the City of Kent, insuring that the highest feasible quality in subdivision will be attained; that the public health, safety, general welfare, and aesthetics of the City of Kent shall be promoted and protected; that orderly growth, development, and the conservation, protection and proper use of land shall be insured; that proper provisions for all public facilities (including circulation, utilities, and services) shall be made; that maximum advantage of site characteristics shall be taken into consideration; that conformance with provisions set forth in the City of Kent Zoning Code and Kent Comprehensive Plan shall be insured. Planning_Department Comment The proposed plat is in general conformance with the regulations of the Subdivision Code. The Subdivision Code calls for right-of-way widths for cul-de-sacs to be 50 feet and the proposal is in compliance with this requirement. All proposed sewers, water mains, and other utilities will comply with applicable City requirements. C. FEASIBILITY OF DEVELOPMENT ON PROPOSED LOTS Development on all lots in the proposed subdivision will be subject to Zoning Code requirements for development in the SR-6, Single Family Residential, zoning district. All lots must also comply with solar access setback regulations and the tree preservation ordinance. Planning Department Comment All proposed lots meet minimum lot size and width requirements. Development on the proposed lots also will have to meet solar setback requirements. The purpose of the solar access setback provision is to provide a reasonable amount of solar access to lots in the City 8 Staff Report Pacific Terrace #SU-96-12 so that the economic value of solar radiation falling on those properties will be preserved and the option to use solar energy will be encouraged. Any structures built on the lots in a single family residential must maintain solar access to the adjacent lots to the north. Insofar as practical, side lot lines shall be at right angles to street lines or radial to curved street lines. Each lot must front upon a public street or road. The size, shape, and orientation of lot shall meet the minimum area and width requirements of the SR-6 district and shall be appropriate for the development of single family residences. Corner lots may be required to be platted with additional width to allow for the additional side yard requirements. Lots which are bordered by two (2) streets shall be permitted access to only (1) of those streets. All lot corners at intersections of dedicated public rights of way shall have a minimum radii of fifteen (15) feet. D. PROPOSED FINDINGS The Planning Department has reviewed this application in relation to the Comprehensive Plan,proposed zoning, land use, street system, flood control problems and comments from other departments and finds that: 1. The Kent Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map designates the site SF-6 Single Family Residential, six units/acre maximum density. 2. The site is currently zoned SR-6, Single Family Residential, six dwelling units per acre. 3. Land uses in the immediate area are predominantly single family residential. 4. A Tentative Plat meeting was held for the proposed subdivision on March 21, 1996 (#TSU-96-12). 5. A Mitigated Determination of Nonsignificance was issued for the plat on April 30, 1996. 6. There are significant trees of six inch or greater caliper located on the property. 7. The site has access to SE 248th Street. 8. The subject property would receive water and sewer service from the City of Kent. 9 Staff Report Pacific Terrace #SU-96-12 V. CITY STAFF RECOMMENDATION Upon review of the merits of this request and the Code criteria for granting a preliminary subdivision, staff recommends CONTINUATION pending receipt of an approved drainage plan; however, if the applicant submits a drainage plan prior to the hearing date that is approved by the Public Works Department, staff recommends APPROVAL of the proposed Pacific Terrace subdivision with the following conditions: A. Prior to recordation of the PACIFIC TERRACE subdivision: 1. The subdivider/developer shall comply with all applicable conditions of the Determination of Non-Significance for the Pacific Terrace Subdivision #ENV-96-29 a) The subdivider/developer shall execute an environmental mitigation agreement to participate in, and pay a fair share of the construction costs of the City's South 272nd/ 277th Street Corridor Project. The minimum benefit to the subdivider/developer is estimated at$23,496 based upon 22 new trips and the capacity of the South 272nd/277th Street Corridor. The final benefit value will be determined based on the number of lots approved upon the final plat map multiplied times $1068 ( in 1986 dollars ) and as adjusted for inflation. b) The subdivider/developer shall construct a 5 foot wide paved shoulder as a pedestrian walkway along South 248th Street from the easterly terminus of the sidewalk improvements on South 248th Street, constructed in conjunction with this plat to 109th Avenue Southeast. c) The subdivider/developer shall revise the configuration of Lots 24 and 25 to consolidate access via 26-foot wide private access tract,per City Standards a gravity sanitary sewer system to serve all lots. The sewer system shall be extended to Southeast 244th Street and along the entire plat frontage thereon, and shall be sized to serve all off-site properties within the same service area. d) All existing driveway(s) onto Southeast 248th Street shall be eliminated, and moved/reconfigured to place them onto 108th Court Southeast. 10 Staff Report Pacific Terrace #SU-96-12 e) The subdivider/developer shall waive abutter's access rights across the entire frontage of the subdivision on Southeast 248th Street, east of 108th Court Southeast, as well as across the entire frontage of Lot 2 -- except as required for Mitigation Measure 44. Said access restriction shall be clearly stated upon the face of the subdivision map. f) The subdivider/developer shall execute a signal participation covenant to financially participate in, and pay a proportionate cost of the, the future installation of a fully-actuated traffic signalization system(s) at the intersection of Southeast 248th Street at 116th Avenue Southeast. 2. The City of Kent Department of Public works has expressed strong concerns regarding the feasibility of the Applicant's stormwater drainage system concept in both the Tentative Subdivision and Environmental Checklist review comments. The Department of Public Works subsequently met with the Applicant and his design engineer to discuss these concerns in more detail and to discuss what must be done prior to preliminary approval of this proposal, but as of the date of this writing, the Applicant's design engineer has not provided the information necessary to determine the feasibility of the proposed stormwater drainage system. The Department of Public Works cannot recommend preliminary plat approval at this time, and recommends that the public hearing for the subdivision be rescheduled after the Applicant's design engineer provides the specified information. The paragraphs which follow convey the Public Works Department's stormwater concerns and the specific stormwater drainage information needed. a. A storm drainage system meeting the Kent Standards for conveyance, detention, water quality treatment, etc. The minimum detention standard to be met for this project shall be that for Hillside development. Additional requirements may be necessary due to the following concerns. b. This project has significant constraints with respect to stormwater collection, conveyance, detention, and treatment. The application for this plat approval indicates that the owner/ subdivider may be intending to discharge stormwater from this site to the private stormwater system for Kent Meadows Apartments, which in turn discharges to the private stormwater drainage system for Kent Estates Condominiums (aka Lake Villa Condominiums), 11 Staff Report Pacific Terrace #SU-96-12 which in turn discharges to the public stormwater system at 109th Avenue SE. The City has a public stormwater drainage easement through the Lake Villa site. Additional public easements will be required through the Kent Meadows site in order to discharge stormwater from the proposed subdivision into that system. C. Neither of the private stormwater drainage systems meet current standards for detention, release or stormwater treatment. In addition, the existing public stormwater drainage system was also not designed to be sufficient to convey the 100-year, 24-hour design storm runoff in accordance with current conveyance standards. Therefore, a detailed storm drainage analysis, flood routing and modeling effort will be required to determine necessary detention volumes, and maximum allowable release rates in order to not exceed the conveyance capacity of the existing downstream drainage facilities or adversely impact downstream properties. (See additional detailed comments, below.) d. Southeast 248th Street, in this area, does not have a public stormwater drainage system, and it appears that the subject property is too low to drain in that direction. e. Unless the owner/subdivider submits a drainage plan significantly different than described above, the owner/subdivider will be required to make extensive off-site improvements. In addition, the owner/subdivider will also have to obtain public stormwater easements for the entire conveyance system to 109th Avenue SE. f. Prior to preliminary plat approval the owner/subdivider for this development shall submit a detailed drainage plan including: infiltration retention for the 100-year, 24-hour design storm ( preferred ), or detention meeting the requirements for open pond detention meeting the requirements for the Hill if the owner/ subdivider's engineer provides evidence that infiltration is not feasible; above ground stormwater treatment; conveyance and full flow velocities for the 100-year,24-hour design storm; and a detailed downstream analysis for at least one-quarter mile downstream from the point of discharge from the proposed plat. This drainage plan will clearly identify the existing and future capacity of each link in the drainage system for the one-quarter mile downstream analysis if 100 percent infiltration retention is not used. This drainage plan will include as-built calculations for live storage in the 12 Staff Report Pacific Terrace #SU-96-12 two downstream private detention systems if 100 percent infiltration retention is not used. 3. The owner/subdivider shall dedicate sufficient right-of-way, across the entire subdivision frontage on Southeast 248th Street, for the widening of Southeast 248th Street to City Standards for a Residential Collector roadway augmented with bicycle lanes for a total half-street right-of-way width of 31.5 feet. This deed of right-of-way shall be provided based upon a survey to be performed by a licensed land surveyor of the subject property, Southeast 248th Street, and shall clearly delineate the existing public right-of-way, curb lines, pavement edges, and public improvements on Southeast 248th Street, and any additional right-of-way needed to widen Southeast 248th Street as noted. 4. The owner/subdivider shall dedicate sufficient right-of-way for the construction of the plat street to City Standards for a Residential Street,minimum right-of-way width of 49 feet, including a minimum 51.5-foot radius [ at property line, 45-foot radius at curb line] in the turnaround. 5. The owner/subdivider shall provide engineering drawings for review and approval by the City, and either construct or bond for the following. a. A gravity sanitary sewer system to serve all lots. The septic systems serving the existing homes within the proposed plat shall be abandoned in accordance with King County Health Dept regulations. b. A water system meeting domestic and fire flow requirements for all lots. C. A 32-foot wide paved roadway; concrete curbs and gutters; five [ 5 ]-foot wide concrete sidewalks along both sides of the 108th Court Southeast; 35- foot radius curb returns at all internal street intersections [ the 'eyebrow' located approximately 100-feet south of Southeast 248th Street ] and at the intersection of 108th Court Southeast at Southeast 248th Street; street lighting; storm drainage; street channelization; utilities and appurtenances. d. A 35-foot wide paved roadway across the entire subdivision frontage of South 248th Street. Said improvements shall include a 23-foot wide half street improvement on the southerly side of the right-of-way centerline, or future roadway centerline as determined by the City based on the survey required in condition B.1 above, (one half of a residential collector street plus a bicycle lane), and a 12-foot wide westbound travel lane on the northerly 13 Staff Report Pacific Terrace #SU-96-12 side of the centerline. The improvements shall also include concrete curbs and gutters; five [ 5 ]-foot wide concrete sidewalk along the southerly side of South 248th Street; street lighting; storm drainage; street channelization; utilities and appurtenances, 35-foot radius curb returns at the intersection of South 248th Street at the plat street, plus adequate transitions to the east and west of the subdivision. Finally, these improvements shall include, if necessary, an overlay of the existing roadway pavement on Southeast 248th Street, as necessary, to provide a 2% crown across the pavement; and, as necessary to meet City Standards for roadway pavement section for a Residential Collector roadway. 6. The owner/subdivider shall dedicate all necessary public right-of-way for the improvements listed in Condition A.3 above, and provide all public and private easements necessary for the construction, operation, and maintenance of the required improvements. 7. Noted on the face of the plat shall be the following access restrictions: Lots 23 and 2 shall have no vehicular access from South 248th Street. Lots 25 and 24 shall be restricted to one common/shared driveway centered on their mutual property line, plus each lot shall have a paved turn-around (vehicle) located within the Lot proper(no backing out onto South 248th Street will be allowed). Said turn-around facility shall be denoted in the building plan on the respective Lot in order to secure a Building Permit thereon. Lot 1 shall have the same turn-around provisions as noted for Lots 24 and 25. 8. The developer shall submit detailed Grading and Temporary Erosion and Sedimentation Control Plans to the City Public Works Department for review and approval prior to any on-site work. Design of temporary erosion controls shall be in accordance with Kent Construction Standards. 9. To prevent or minimize water pollution after construction, the site design shall incorporate Best Management Practices, or BMPs, wherever practicable. BMPs are specific structures or actions intended to prevent pollution at the source. Examples of BMPs include storm drain stenciling, covered storage areas, periodic sweeping of materials off of pavement surfaces before they can wash down into the storm drain, and trash bins with impervious lids. 14 Staff Report Pacific Terrace #SU-96-12 10. Dedicate five percent(5%) of the total plat area being developed as open space park land or pay a fee in lieu of dedication as set forth in Ordinance No. 2975. B. Prior to issuance of a development permit on any lot in the PACIFIC TERRACE subdivision #SU 96-12: 1. The subdivider/developer shall construct the improvements noted in Section A, above. 2. A tree plan for the general site, for the roadway, and for all individual lots showing all trees six inches in diameter or greater, and their relationship to any proposed structure, must be approved by the Kent Planning Department prior to approval and construction of the final roadway design and prior to the issuance of a development permit for any lot. No trees of six inch caliper or greater shall be removed from any lot except in conformance with a tree plan approved by the Kent Planning Department.

Mav Financial Report Director of Finance May Miller reviewed the May financial report with the Committee. During her review of the report, May noted on page 13 that the sales tax received from services and manufacturing was below budget as a result of the State legislative exemption. She cautioned that the full impacts from these new exemptions won't be known until September and that there is a possibility that an additional exemption for research and development may be given by the legislature. Miller explained that the loss of this revenue could cause a significant shortfall in the City of Kent's sales tax revenue and needs to be watched closely. Director of Operations Brent McFall added that the legislature took this action to stimulate business. The State has the option to recover the revenue through B & O taxes. The city also has the option of adding a B&O tax but has refrained from this in the past to promote businesses. By the State's action the city may be forced into using this tax although it has always been viewed as a disincentive to businesses. Committeemember Orr asked if there was any chance that the State will reverse their position. McFall responded that he didn't think they would and the current strategy of the cities affected is to stop the bleeding and work to stop any more exemptions. Miller noted that there is still a small hope for some mitigation although warehousing is also being considered for additional sessions which would really hurt Kent with our large warehousing base. Orr asked if the legislative report on electrical deregulation would impact Kent. McFall responded in reading our ordinance, we may not be affected. Miller noted that gross revenues are taxed no matter where the electricity is bought from but staff will continue to investigate this issue. She noted that the potential property tax rollback would also negatively impact revenue and needs to be monitored. May finished her review of the May financial report. Authorization to Expand Fire Facilities Maintenance Position to Full Time/1996 Bud,et Adjustment Fire Chief Norm Angelo stated that the fire maintenance personnel have been stretched since the layoffs a number of years ago. He noted that over 15 acres of landscaped area surrounds the fire facilities and 104,000 square feet of building is maintained relating to emergency facilities such as doors, air ventilation, generators, etc. He explained that the Fire Department depends on the maintenance personnel not only for routine maintenance but also call them back for emergencies. To meet the current demands, Chief Angelo requested that the current temporary part time position be upgraded to a permanent full time position. He noted that this will not totally satisfy the needs but will provide for the opportunity to research a multi-year program to more efficiently utilize personnel by using some civilian personnel in-line with the fire master plan. Chief Angelo emphasized that this addition will pay for itself just by adequately doing preventative maintainance of facilities saving future repair costs. Committee Chair Jon Johnson asked if the $19,000 from the unexpended Fire District payment would go into the general fund without this proposal. McFall confirmed that it would but explained that this is OPERATIONS COMMITTEE MINUTES, CONT. TT Ti Y 17 . 1190 showing that there is some unanticipated revenue to cover this expense. Angelo noted that the ongoing costs will be more expensive and be addressed through the annexation budget. This proposal will just cover the remainder of this year. Committeemember Bennett asked if there was the ability through interdepartmental transfers to address the needs on an interim basis. Angelo replied that option had been looked at as well as contracting out. He noted that it was found that contracting out just the landscaping and mowing would cost one and a half times as much as this position. Other departments have previously indicated that they are at their capacity and could take on these duties if three or four more personnel were added. Angelo indicated this is a bare minimum proposal. He noted that it is critical that if a door won't open on the weekend to have someone familiar with the system to come back immediately to get the engine out the door. McFall added that it is currently being explored whether the Fire Departments building grounds maintenance should be a part of the overall facilities division that has responsibility for all other city buildings at this time. A decision hasn't been made as yet but the staffing needs are there regardless of whether it is ultimately out of the Fire Department, Parks, or Facilities, McFall explained. Angelo noted that there are a number of repairs that are not being adequately addressed that could result in additional capital costs. This position would not fully meet all of the current needs now. He requested that the position be granted. Bennett suggested that it be added now and as part of the 1997 budget the maintenance issue be addressed. Angelo noted that it is important to have some consistency into 1997. After further discussion, Committeemember Orr moved to recommend authorization to expand part time Fire Facilities Maintenance position to full time with the necessary budget adjustments to allocate $19,000 from the unexpended Fire District revenues. Bennett seconded the motion for discussion. Orr suggested that the position be added now noting that in November and October the budget will be under consideration and a number of positions may be looked at if the revenue worsens in the next few months. As the discussion progressed McFall noted that this is the type of analysis that is done in budget preparation and recommendations would be brought back to the Committee. Bennett agreed that it would be wise to look at the overall maintenance as part of the 1997 budget process. Committee Chair Johnson asked for a vote on Orr's motion. The motion passed 3-0. Authorization to Hire a Second Building Insl2ector Position for the RTC Project/l Q6 Project Budget Adjustment McFall reminded the Committee that over a year ago when the impacts of the RJC had been realized, the permit fees had been set aside in a special program to meet permit staffing requirements. As discussed at that time, we are now coming back with additional inspection needs. Building Official Bob Hutchinson stated that there have been some changes since the item was brought forward. The project started later and will end later. One inspector position had been added previously and it is now being requested to add the second inspector position to be filled by October 1. This will result in three or four months less time than had originally been anticipated. Hutchinson reported that it is estimated that a balance of$50,000 of the permit fee revenue will be transfered to the general fund upon completion of the project after expenses. He added that it is anticipated that during the peak of the project in December, January, and February the need for 400 inspection hours a month is anticipated. Hutchinson noted that staff has looked for ways to accommodate these needs without additional staff and with other building activity throughout the city there would be too many negative impacts. Bennett commented the need for timely inspections is critical to everyone. During further discussion it was noted that both RJC inspector positions will only be terminated at completion of the project. Page 2 OPERATIONS COMMITTEE MINUTES, CONT. J TT_Y 17, 1996 Orr moved to recommend authorization to create a second building inspector position in the Regional Justice Center Project budget with both inspector positions terminating and remaining funds being transferred to the general fund upon conclusion of the RJC Project. Bennett seconded the motion. Committee Chair Johnson asked what the expected date of termination is expected to be. Hutchinson replied that with current projections it is expected to be at the end of March. The Committee voted 3-0 in favor of the motion. Distribution of Disaster Funds Received for February 1996 FloodindDecember 1995 Windstorm Chief Angelo introduced Assistant Chief Mary Berg noting that he will be retiring after 31 years of service. He informed the Committee that Berg and his staff have saved the city a great deal of money during his service in addition to his contribution to the safety of our community. Assistant Chief Berg stated that $6,930 has been received for the 1995 windstorm from the State and Federal government; and, as a result of flooding expenses in February of 1996, $71,000 has been received. Berg explained that these funds are reimbursements for contracts to clean up Earthworks Park and the ball parks, overtime incurred as a result of the flood, and other expenses. He noted that the money has been received and receipted and authorization is requested to allocate the funds to accounts that disaster costs were expended. Bennett thanked everyone from the city who had helped to track these expenses and moved to recommend authorization to allocate funds received for costs incurred by the City of Kent during the February 1996 floods and the December 1995 windstorm, to the departmental accounts that expenditures were charged to. Orr seconded the motion and thanked Mary Berg and city staff for their efforts to get these funds. She noted that she is always extremely proud of City of Kent staff. Kent Downtown Partnership - Quarterly Report Kent Downtown Partnership Director Linda Johnson reported that the application for a 501(c)3 has been turned in and the IRS should respond within the next 100 days. She noted that the Board of Directors goals and objectives from their retreat were outlined in the packet. Linda noted that the merchants have begun the first cooperative advertisement program which will include advertising on billboards on SR 167 during the September/December shopping season. Linda reviewed the remainder of the report with the Committee. She noted that there has been a lot of cooperation between the KDP, Chamber of Commerce, and the City. Linda distributed posters of the voluntary design program for downtown noting that this was the result of two years of work by the Design Committee. Committeemembers thanked Linda for her hard work on behalf of the downtown. 1997 Budget Process Calendar Review May Miller reviewed the proposed budget calendar with the Committee. She noted that the August 6 and August 20 workshops had been combined into one on August 20. McFall stated that this will be an opportunity to inform the full council of the city's financial position and to get Council input into the 1997 budget. May continued that a workshop to present the proposed budget is scheduled for October 15 and November 5 for a public hearing on the budget. The budget is tentatively scheduled for adoption by the City Council on November 19, 1996. The Committee concurred with the proposed budget calendar. Jon Johnson asked if there was any further business to be brought before the Committee. There being none the meeting was adjourned at 5:58 p.m. Page 3
