Approximately 20 people were at the meeting. PUBLIC State of the City Address. Mayor White presented COMMUNICATIONS his State of the City Address, noting that 1996 has been the most significant year of change in the city' s history. He pointed out that the Meridian Annexation increased the size of the city by 5. 3 square miles and nearly 15, 000 resi- dents. He added that staff has been reduced from 12 .7 to 10. 3 per 1, 000 population, and said that though he is committed to maintaining a small, productive work force, staffing levels must be balanced against delivery requirements. Mayor White highlighted the accomplishments of each department, including legislation regulating adult entertainers, purchase of the Centennial Center, National accreditation, the success of the teen programs and skate park, completion of Phase I of the Green River Natural Resource Enhancement project, and awards received. The Mayor noted that challenges to be faced in the coming year include the impact of sales tax exemptions to certain business groups, increased interest in annexation, increased pressures on emergency services, finalization of the Downtown Strategic Plan, the impact of changes in the telecommunications industry, and maintaining services and infrastructure. Employee of the Month. Mayor White introduced Dea Drake of the Information Services Graphics Department, and announced that she has been selected as Employee of the Month for January. The Mayor explained that Ms. Drake designed the City' s cable television channel, which has set a standard for surrounding cities. He noted that she is also involved in designing, administering, printing and scheduling mailers, saving the City a great deal of postage dollars. Ms. Drake' s supervisor, Information Services Director Spang, stated that she is an outstanding employee, and 1 January 7 , 1997 PUBLIC commended her for her sense of responsibility and COMMUNICATIONS her caring attitude. The Mayor then presented her with the Employee of the Month plaque. Way Back Inn. Michael Evans, President of the Way Back Inn, explained that they have remodeled and repaired a house donated by the City near French Field, and that approximately four homeless families with children live in it each year. Evans stated that they have had this house for five years, and presented the Mayor with a Certificate of Appreciation. Mayor White expressed gratitude for the Way Back Inn' s con- tribution to the community. CONSENT Steve O'Connor requested that Item C be removed CALENDAR from the Consent Calendar.

HEALTH & (CONSENT CALENDAR - ITEM 3E) SANITATION Canyon Crest Estates. ACCEPTANCE of the bill of sale for Canyon Crest Estates submitted by Pan' s Development Corporation for continuous operation and maintenance of 446 feet of sanitary sewer line, 560 feet of street improvements, 1, 727 feet of storm sewers and release of bonds after the expiration period, as recommended by the Public Works Director.

ADOPTION of Ordinance No. 3330 vacating a portion of Saar Street east of Railroad Avenue, and reserving a utility easement with related rights. TELECOMMUNI- (PUBLIC HEARINGS - ITEM 2A) CATIONS Moratorium on Commercial Wireless Telecommuni- cations Facilities. This date has been set to consider a moratorium on the issuance of land use and development permits for commercial wireless telecommunications facilities. City staff has received an increasing number of permit appli- cations for these facilities. The purpose of the moratorium is to allow time for the City to 2 January 7 , 1997 TELECOMMUNI- consider the impacts and different options CATIONS available before issuing permits for these telecommunications facilities. Assistant City Attorney Brubaker explained that the moratorium would be on the placement of antenna devices, which are usually attached to poles, buildings or other structures. He voiced concern about impacts on the city, including interference with the city' s 800 MHz Life Safety 911 System, the siting and aesthetics of the devices, and the effect of electromagnetic radiation on individuals. He said staff and the Planning Committee recommend a six month moratorium on permits to study these impacts. Brubaker noted for Orr that if adopted now, the moratorium would take effect immediately. Mayor White opened the public hearing. Chris Fischer, Director of Valley Communications Center, spoke in support of the moratorium, and asked for an opportunity to participate in the study of impacts and to provide input as ordinances are drafted. There were no further comments and WOODS MOVED to close the public hearing. Orr seconded and the motion carried. CLARK MOVED to adopt Resolution No. 1487 imposing a moratorium on the issuance of land use and development permits for commercial wireless tele- communications facilities. Orr seconded. Clark emphasized that the city wants to encourage the development of further communications capabili- ties, but that if it is unplanned, significant problems can result. He said it is in the city' s best interest to refine this issue, and that the moratorium is simply a study period which will result in the best service to citizens. His motion then carried. PLANNING (CONSENT CALENDAR - ITEM 3C) (REMOVED BY COUNCIL AT THE REQUEST OF STEVE O' CONNOR) Agricultural Preservation Position Statement. The Planning Department has recommended approval of the Agricultural Preservation Position Statement. 3 January 7, 1997 PLANNING Steve O'Connor, 702 5th Avenue South, Kent, noted that his family owns the Torrance property which has been designated for annexation. He said that the City is building a 5-lane highway through an agricultural area and is condemning agricul- turally designated properties to do so. He said his family supports the 277th road project, and that their property is not suited for commercial agriculture. He asked the City to consider the potential of their property and to reconsider action on this issue when they can provide input. He noted that theirs is the only property in the proposed annexation area which will be affected, because the others have had their development rights purchased. He added that if this policy is adopted, they can no longer participate in the annexation process. Upon Houser' s question, O'Connor said they believe the property would be properly designated as commercial or industrial, and that they are willing to work with the city on this issue. ORR MOVED to approve the Position Statement on Agricultural Preservation as recommended by the Planning Committee. Clark seconded. Orr noted that other alternatives are being considered, and that this Statement is a result of actions taken by King County with no regard to the City' s Comprehensive Plan. She said this Position Statement changes nothing and is a reiteration of the City' s position on agricultural lands. She added that the Planning Committee is researching transfer and purchase of development rights issues along with this. She reiterated that this is not aimed at any individual' s piece of pro- perty, but is a statement for King County' s benefit. Clark said that the intent is not for that area to become a major intersection. He said it is his opinion that the nature of the agricultural district will not be changed. Johnson noted that the Planning Committee discussed restating their position on the preservation of agricultural lands and giving direction to staff to develop another policy dealing with lands which are designated for agricultural use whose owners would like alternative uses. Orr' s motion to approve the Position Statement then carried. 4 January 7, 1997 PLAT (OTHER BUSINESS - ITEM 4A) Stillwater Shadows Final Plat FSU-96-23. This date has been set to consider the Stillwater Shadows Final Plat. The plat is located at 132nd Avenue SE and SE 261st Street and is 4 . 89 acres in size. The preliminary plat was approved by King County and came under Kent's jurisdiction upon annexation. ORR MOVED to approve Stillwater Shadows Final Plat (King County Ordinance No. 12059 and File No. L94P0019) and to authorize the Mayor to sign the final plat mylar, as recommended by staff. Bennett seconded and the motion carried. ZONING CODE (OTHER BUSINESS - ITEM 4B) Mixed Use Zoning - Zoning Code Amendment ZCA-96-5. The Land Use and Planning Board held public hearings on the Mixed Use Zoning Code Amendment on October 28 and November 25, 1996. Due to the complexity of this item, staff re- quests that it be sent to the Planning Committee for review prior to presentation to the full Council for adoption. Kevin O'Neill of the Planning Department noted that when the Comprehensive Plan was being put together, there was much discussion on mixed use development, and that this involves proposed zoning amendments to three zoning districts, as well as changes to permitted uses, development standards, densities and possible administrative design review. He said for those reasons staff feels it is important that this issue go to the Planning Committee to address any concerns before coming to the Council. ORR MOVED that this item be sent to the Planning Committee. Woods seconded and the motion carried. (OTHER BUSINESS - ITEM 4D) Administrative Variance Procedures - Zoning Code Amendment ZCA-96-7. The Land Use and Planning Board proposes an amendment to the Kent Zoning Code which would implement Administrative Variance procedures, expand the use of joint use of parking facilities and implement new transit and rideshare provisions, and increase the maximum allowable size of detached accessory 5 January 7 , 1997 ZONING CODE dwelling units that can be converted from existing accessory buildings. Matt Jackson of the Planning Department explained the changes as follows: 1. Expand the administrative authority of the Planning Director allowing him to grant variances for lot coverage, building setbacks and building height for minor requests which have been approved by the Hearing Examiner. 2 . Expand the current shared use of parking for businesses which would like to make joint use of a facility and establishment of reduc- tions for minimum parking standards for those businesses which have executed Commute Trip Reduction programs with the city, as well as provide relief for those businesses which have car pool and dedicated van pool parking available to employees. 3 . Amend the accessory dwelling ordinance to allow a larger maximum size for legally established detached accessory buildings to be converted to ADUs. Jackson noted for Mayor White that this will speed up the process , and clarified for Orr that the public notice requirement is ten days and the Planning Director may reduce the minimum number of off-street parking stalls for businesses which have a Commute Trip Reduction program filed with the city by up to 25% . He also explained that if someone wanted to go into a joint use agreement, they would have to execute an agreement which would encumber those stalls to be used for those particular businesses , and if there was a change of use or redevelopment, there would be another review. ORR MOVED to approve the Administrative Variance Procedures Zoning Code Amendment ZCA-96-7 as recommended by the Land Use and Planning Board, and to direct the City Attorney to prepare the necessary ordinance . Woods seconded and the motion carried. COMPREHENSIVE (OTHER BUSINESS - ITEM 4C) PLAN 1996 Comprehensive Plan Amendments CPA-96-3 (A-G) and Zoning Map Changes CPZ-96-1-5.

Kevin O'Neill of the Planning Department pointed out the locations and explained the seven amendments as follows: Proposal A - A change to the Land Use Plan Map from Residential (SF-6) to Commercial for property located at 22320 88th Avenue South (Coblentz - CPA-93-3 (A) & CPZ-96-1) . The board is recommending that a portion of the applicants' property be redesigned as Industrial in the comprehensive plan and CM-1 on the zoning map. Proposal B - A change to the Land Use Plan Map from SF-1 to SF-6 for property located at the southwest corner of 104th Avenue SE and SE 272nd Street (Prouty CPA-96-3 (B) & CPZ-96-2) .

Proposal C - A change to the Land Use Plan Map from SF-6 to Low Density Multi-Family Residential on property located at 25840 135th Lane SE (Lewis CPA-96-3 (C) & CPZ-96-3) . The Board is recom- mending that the proposed redesignation of the applicants' property to Low Density Multi-Family Residential on the comprehensive plan and MRG on the zoning map not be approved. Proposal D - A change to the Land Use Plan Map from SF-6 to Neighborhood Services for property located at the northeast corner of 116th Avenue SE and Kent Kangley (Robbins CPA-96-3 (D) & CPZ-96-4) .

O'Neill noted receipt of a letter from Joel Haggard of the Haggard Law Office regarding Proposal C (George Lewis) . Upon Orr' s question, McFall explained that the figure shown on page 8-8 of the Capital Facilities Element for the Centennial Center reflects the entire size of the building because the City owns the entire building. It was noted that the City currently occupies approximately one-third of the space. ORR MOVED to adopt the recommendations of the Land Use and Planning Board for the 1996 Comprehensive Plan Amendments and Zoning Map Changes, to direct the City Attorney to prepare the necessary ordinance (s) , and to make the letter from the Haggard Law Office a part of the record.

CITY COUNCIL ACTION: Councilmember moves, Councilmember seconds DISCUSSION: ACTION: Council Agenda Item No. 3K EMPLOYEE SERVICES MEMORANDUM DATE: January 15, 1997 TO: Council Operations Committee FROM: Sue Viseth, Employee Services Director SUBJECT: SICK LEAVE INCENTIVE PROGRAM - NON-REPRESENTED EMPLOYEES The Employee Services Department is proposing implementation of a sick leave incentive program for all non-represented employees. The proposed program mirrors the sick leave incentive plan currently provided to all AFSCME employees. The program consists of an annual monetary incentive. based on an employee's ability to reach and maintain their sick leave balance at established levels. A description of the program is attached for your review. If approved. the sick leave incentive program would be effective January 1997. however there would be no financial impact to the City until 1998. The cost of this program for 174 employees is estimated at 530,000 and would be funded through the 1998 budget process. An analysis of this program over the past two years with our .aFSCME employees reflects an 8.9% decrease in sick leave usage and an increase of 30.3% in sick leave accrual balances. Clearly the program is working. The next step is to establish parity for our non-represented employees. To that end, we are proposing implementation of this program for all of our non-represented employees effective January 1997. If you have any questions regarding this program please feel tree to contact me directly at 859-3358. City of Kent Proposed Sick Leave Incentive Program Non-Represented Employees SICK LEAVE INCENTIVE PROGRAM In order to provide an incentive for using sick leave only as necessary, employees shall be entitled to incentive pay for maintaining their sick leave balance at the following levels: Sick Leave Hours Amount of Cash Incentive 0-239 No Incentive 240-479 8 hours of base pay 480-719 16 hours of base pay 720-960 24 hours of base pay Incentive pay would be granted in January of the following year. For purposes of determining eligibility to receive incentive pay, an empioyee must have maintained the 240+, 480+ or 720 hour accrual for the entire preceding calendar year. If an employee falls below one of the designated accrual levels, they will not be eligible for the corresponding incentive pay.

SECTION III LIMITS OF THE CONTRACT ADMINISTRATOR'S RESPONSIBILITY 3 . 01 It is recognized and understood by the Plan Sponsor that the Contract Administrator is not an insurer and that the Contract Administrator' s sole function is to provide claims administration services and the Contract Administrator shall have no liability for the funding of benefits . 3 . 02 If during the course of an audit performed internally by the Contract Administrator pursuant to Section 2.Ol, c. or by the Plan Sponsor pursuant to Section V of this Agreement any error is discovered, the Contract Administrator shall use reasonable efforts to recover any loss resulting from such error. 3 . 03 The Contract Administrator is an independent contractor with respect to the services being performed pursuant to this Agreement and shalt not for any purpose be deemed an employee of the Plan Sponsor. 3 . 04 This Agreement is between the Contract Administrator and the Plan Sponsor and does not create any legal relationship between the Contract Administrator and any Participant, Dependent, Beneficiary or any other individual. 7436T 4 3 .05 It is recognized by the parties that errors may occur and it is agreed that the Contract Administrator will not be held liable for such errors unless they resulted from its gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Plan Sponsor agrees to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless the Contract Administrator from all claims, damages, liabilities, losses, and expenses arising out of the Contract Administrator' s performance of administration services under the terms of this Agreement, so long as they did not arise out of the Contract Administrator's gross negligence or willful misconduct. SECTION IV FFFS OF THE CONTRACT ADMINISTRATOR 4.01 By the first of each month, The Plan Sponsor shall pay the Contract Administrator in accordance with the fee schedule set forth in Attachment D which is incorporated herein by reference. 4.02 Late Payments a. If, for any reason whatsoever, the Plan Sponsor fails to make a timely payment required under this Agreement, the Contract Administrator may suspend performance of services to the Plan Sponsor, including processing and payment of claims, until such time as the Plan Sponsor makes the required payment, including interest as set forth in b. below. b. The Contract Administrator will charge interest to the Plan Sponsor on all late payments, including amounts paid to reinstate this Agreement after termination pursuant to Section 9. 05, at the average annual prime rate posted by Seattle First National Bank plus two (2', percent on the amount of the late payments for the number of days late. Interest will be in addition to any other amounts payable under this Agreement . C. In the event of late payment, the Contract Administrator may terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 9. 05 . Acceptance of late payments by the Contract Administrator shall not constitute a waiver of its right to cancel this Agreement due to delinquent or nonpayment of fees . 7486T 5 SECTION V OUT-OF-AREA PROGRAM 5 .01 Information About Access Fees Charged Through The Out- Of-Area Program Blue Cross and Blue Shield Plans outside of our service area (called Host Plans) may charge Blue Cross of Washington and Alaska a fee (called an access fee) for making their discounted rates and the resulting savings available on claims incurred by our enrollees. The access fee, if one is charged, is up to 10 percent (but not to exceed $2, 000 for any claim) of the discount the Host Plan has obtained from its providers . The access fee may be charged only if the Host Plan's arrangement with the provider prohibits billing employees for amounts in excess of the discounted rate. However, providers may bill for deductibles and/or coinsurance. 5 . 02 How The Access Fee Affects You When Blue Cross of Washington and Alaska is charged an access fee, we will pass the charge along to you as a claims expense. If we receive an access fee credit, we will give you a claims expense credit. Access fees are considered a claims expense because they represent claims dollars we were unable to or, in the case of a credit, were able to avcid paying. Instances may occur in which we do not pay a claim (or pay only a small amount; because the amounts eligible for payment were applied to the deductible or coinsurance. If the Host Plan' s arrangement with its provider allows the discounted payment rate to apply when the amount is fui: : or mostly a patient obligation, we will pay the host Plan ' s access fee and pass it along to you as a claims expense even though you paid little or none of the claim. 5 .03 How Employee Coinsurance iab- l-t , -s Affected When The Host Plan' s Disccunt rancement Does Not Apuly In some cases, a Host Plan' s nrc,,,ider contracts require that employee coinsurance be ca-culated as a percentage of billed charges ratter than as percentage of the discounted payment rate the pro-::der has agreed to accept from the Host Plan. In these eases , Blue Cross of Washington and Alaska wit-- no, to able to take advantage of the Host Plan' s prnv,der discount, because Blue Cross of Washington and ;,Iaska on_ r accepts provider discounts when the discounted rate acc=_es to both the Grcup' s claim expense and the Emp-ogee ' = coinsurance liability. When this occurs, Blue Cross c' Washington and Alaska will pay the provider on the cases of the billed charge, and no discount or access fee will apply. 7486T 6 Because of the many different arrangements between Host Plans and their providers, it is not possible to give you specific information for each out-of-area provider. However, if your employees contact us prior to incurring out-of-area services, we may be able to give them information regarding providers who will agree to accept coinsurance calculated as a percentage of the discounted rate. SECTION VI AUDIT 6 .01 Within thirty (30) days of written notice from the Plan Sponsor, the Contract Administrator shall allow an authorized agent of the Plan Sponsor to inspect or audit all records and files maintained by the Contract Administrator which are directly pertinent to the administration of the Plan. Such documents shall be made available at the administrative office of the Contract Administrator during normal business hours. The Plan Sponsor shall be liable for any and all fees charged by the auditor. Any agent or auditor that has access to the records and files maintained by the Contract Administrator shall agree not to disclose any proprietary or confidential information used in the business of the Contract Administrator. SECTION VII SUBROGATION 7. 01 The Contract Administrator shall make reasonable efforts to pursue subrogation claims administratively on behalf of the Plan. However, the Contract Administrator shall have no affirmative duty to pursue subrogation claims beyond those specified in section 2 . O1,b. The Plan Sponsor shall have the sole discretion to bring any legal claim or action to enforce the Plan's subrcgation provisions. The Contract Administrator will cooperate with the Plan Sponsor in the event the Plan Sponsor brings any legal action to enforce the subrogaticn provisions of the Plan.

Introduction / Background and Analysis The only change proposed on pages 8-1 thru 8-5 is to update the six year plan period from 1994- 1999 to 1997-2002. The proposed changes on page 8-6 show the actual process used to select a specific level of service to be the adopted standard. Current Facilities Inventory Several changes are necessary to update the Current Facilities Inventories on pages 8-7 thru 8-12. The increases in inventory are primarily due to property acquired as a result of the Meridian annexation and additional purchases since the Comprehensive Plan was developed and adopted. Corrections Facility No Chanties Fire and Emergency Services The City has acquired two fire stations from King County Fire District 437, increasing the total number of stations owned by the City to six. Station 72 has two frre/aid units in service and a capacity for three and Station 75 has one firelaid unit in service and capacity for three. King County Fire District 4�3 7 now owns only one fire station, Station 77, within the unincoraorated Urban Growth Area of Kent.. Police/ Fire Training Center No Changes City Administrative Office - General Government The Centennial Building and Municipal Court facility are no longer leased. The City purchased the Centennial Building (71,949 square feet) and the Municipal Court facility (4,251 square feet) in June 1996. City Administrative Offices - Police Headquarters No Chanties City Maintenance Facilities No Changes Parks and Recreation Facilities The City of Kent now owns and manages 147.2 acres of neighborhood park land and 972.0 acres of community park land within the current City limits, which is an overall increase of 210.7 acres. The number of acres within the current City limits owned by King County decreased from 6.1 acres to 0.5 acres. Within the unincorporated Urban Growth Area(UGA) of Kent, King County owns 720.3 acres of park land, which is a reduction of 87.5 acres. These acres are now included in the City of Kent inventory as a result of the Meridian annexation. Golf Courses No Changes Sanitary Sewer Facilities No Changes Stormwater Management Facilities The total drainage area of the City has increased from 19 square miles to 25.42 square miles. Water Supply, Distribution, and Storage Facilities No change to the water service area of 27 square miles. The last paragraph on page 8-11 has been changed to mention the update of the Water System Comprehensive Plan that is scheduled in 1997. Transportation Facilities The City's current road system inventory has increased from 164 total land miles to 254.9 total land miles and is divided into four major categories of roads; 40.5 miles of principal arterials; 91.0 miles of minor arterials; 94.4 miles of collector arterials, and 29.0 miles of local roads. The pedestrian transportation inventory will be updated after a physical inventory of the Meridian annexation area is completed. The following maps are currently being revised to show the above inventory changes: Figure 8.1 Public Services and Facilities Figure 8.2 Sewer System Figure 8.3 Storm Drainage Service Area Figure 8.4 Water System Figure 10.1 Parks and Recreation Facilities (Parks Element of Comprehensive Plan) Figure 10.2 Existing Trails (Parks Element of Comprehensive Plan) Analysis of Impacts Tables 8.1 and 8.2 in the Analysis of Impacts section (pages 8-13 and 8-14) are updated to reflect the 1997-2002 Capital Facilities Plan. Total project costs have increased from $129,319,000 for 1994-1999 to $181,516,000 for 1997-2002. Revenue sources have increased from $131,292,000 for 1994-1999 to $181,516,000 for 1997-2002. Level of Service Consequences of the CFP on page 8-15 are currently being evaluated. CHAPTER EIGHT CAPITAL FACII =S ELEMENT CHAPTER EIGHT CAPITAL FACILITIES ELEMENT INTRODUCTION The capital facilities element contains a summary of the Capital Facilities Plan (CFP) for the City of Kent. The element consists of the following information: (1) statements of requirements, level-of-service (LOS) standards, guidelines, and criteria that are used to develop and implement the CFP; (2) mi ventones of existing facilities; (3) maps showing the locations of existing facilities; and (4) a list of proposed capital projects, including a financing plan, future operating costs, and reconciliation of project capacity and LOS standards. The complete CFP and supporting documents are available for review at the City of Kent Planning Department. The CFP is a required element of the City's comprehensive plan, mandated by the Washington State Growth Management Act (GMA). The GMA requires cities and counties to approve and maintain a CFP which includes requirements for specific types of capital facilities, LOS standards, financial feasibility, and assurance that adequate facilities will be provided as development occurs. As required by the GMA, the CFP is a 6-year plan for capital improvements that support the City's current and future population and employment growth. It contains LOS standards for each public facility, and requires that new development is served by adequate facilities. The CFP also contains broad goals and specific policies that guide and implement the provision of adequate public facilities. The capital facilities element is the element that makes real the rest of the comprehensive plan. By establishing LOS as the basis for providing capital facilities and for achieving concurrenry, the CFP dPte=ines the quality of life in the community. The requirement to fully finance the CFP provides a reality check on the vision set forth in the comprehensive plan. The capacity of capital facilities that are provided in the CFP affects the size and configuration of the urban growth area. The purpose of the CFP is to use sound fiscal policies to provide adequate public facilities in a manner consistent with the land use element and at a time concurrent with KEN' COMPREHENSIVE PLAN 8-1 CAPITAL FACILIZ7ES ELEMENT CHAPTER EIGHT (or prior to) the impacts of development. These capital facilities propose to achieve and mainrain adopted standards for LOS in order to maintain the quality of life for existing and future development. The plan fulfills the GMA requirement for facilities planning; but, in addition, the plan serves as a base for good city management and establishes eligibility for grants and loans. It provides coordination among the City's many plans for capital improvements, including other elements of the comprehensive plan, master plans of departmental service providers, and facilities plans of the state, the region, and adjacent local jurisdictions. Requirements of the Growth Management Act The GMA requires the CFP to identify public facilitir�s that will be required during the six years following adoption of the new plan Q through W The CFP must include the location and cost of the facilities, and the sources of revenue that will be used to fund the facilities. The CFP must be financially feasible; in other words, dependable revenue sources must equal or exceed anticipated costs. If the costs exceed the revenue, the City must reduce its level of service, reduce costs, or modify the land use element to bring development into balance with available or affordable facilities. Other requirements of the GMA mandate forecasts of future needs for capital facilities and the use of standards for levels of service of facility capacity as the basis for public facilities contained in the CFP [see RCW 36.70A.020 (12)]. As a result, public facilities in the CFP must be based on quantifiable, objective measures of capacity, such as traffic- I volume capacity per mile of road and acres of park per capita. One of the zoals of the GMA is to have capital facilities in place concurrent with I development. This concept is known as concurrency (also called "adequate public I facilities"). In the City of Kent, concurrency requires 1) facilities which serve the development to be in place at the time of development (or for some types of facilities, a financial commitment to be made to provide the facilities within a specified period of fie) and 2) facilities which serve the development to have sufficient capacity to serve the development without decreasing LOS below minimum standards adopted in the CFP The GMA requires concurrency for transportation facilities. The GMA also requires all other public facilities to be "adequate" [see RCW 19.27.097, 36.70A.020, 36.70A.030, and 58.17.1101. Concurrency management procedures will be developed to ensure that sufficient public facility capacity is available for each proposed development. 8-2 KENT COMPREHENSIVE PLAN w CHAPTER EIGHT CAPITAL FACI7ITIES ELEMEVS After the CFP is completed and adopted as part of the comprehensive plan, the City must adopt development regulations to implement the plan. The development regulations will C provide detailed regulations and procedures for implementing the requirements of the plan. Each year, the City must update the CFP. The annual update will be completed before the City's budget is adopted in order to incorporate into the budget the capital improvements from the updated CFP. BACKGROUND AND ANALYSIS LOS (SCENARIO-DRIVEN) METHOD OF ANALYSIS .Explanation of Levels of Service Levels of service usually are quantifiable measures of the amount of public facilities that are provided to the community. Levels of service also may measure the quality of some public facilities. Typically, measures of LOS are expressed as ratios of facility capacity to demand (i.e., actual or potential users). The following chart lists examples of LOS measures for some capital facilities. Type of Capital Facility Sample LOS Measures Corrections Beds per 1,000 population Fire and Rescue Average response time Hospitals Beds per 1,000 population Taw Enforcement Officers per 1,000 population Library Collection size per capita Parks Building square feet per capita Acres per 1,000 population Roads and Streets Ratio of actual volume to design capacity Schools Square feet per student Sewer Gallons per customer per day A VT COMPREHENSIVE PLAN CAPITAL FACILTITES ELEMENT CHAPTER EIGHT, Effluent quality Solid Waste Tons (or cubic yards) per capita or per customer Surface Water & River Levees Design storm (i.e., 100-year storm) Runoff water quality Transit Ridership Water Gallons per customer per day Water quality Each of these LOS measures needs one additional piece of information: the specific quantity that measures the current or proposed LOS. For example, the standard for parks might be 6 acres per 1,000 population; but the current LOS may be 2.68 acres per 1,000, which is less than the standard. In order to make use of the LOS method, the City selects the way in which it will measure each facility (i.e., acres, gallons, etc.). It also identifies the amount of the current and proposed LOS standard for each measurement. There are other ways to measure the LOS of many of these capital facilities. The examples in. the previous chart are provided to give greater depth to the following discussion of the use of LOS as a method for determining the City's herd for capital facilities. Method for Using Levels of Service The LOS method answers two questions in order to develop a financially-feasible CFP. The GMA requires the CFP to be based on standards for service levels that are measurable and financially feasible for the six fiscal years following adoption of the plan. The CFP must meet the City's capital needs for the fiscal years ±994 through }999 f9gq- aCQa- The two questions that must be answered in order to meet the GMA requirements are: (1) What is the quantity of public facilities that will be required by the end of the 6th year (i.e., 1;99)? 1pmr (2) Is it financially feasible to provide the quantity of facilities that are required by the end of the 6th year (i.e., J999)? v�o' i KENT COMPREHENSIVE PLAN CHAPTER EIGHT CAPITAL FAC=F-S ELEVEN7 The answer to each question can be calculated by using objective data and formulas. �n Each type of public facility is examined separately (i.e., roads are examined separately C from parks). The costs of all the types of facilities then are added together in order to determine the overall financial feasibility of the CFP. A detailed explanation of the formulas used is contained in the Capital Facilities Plan. One of the CFP support documents, Capital Facilities Requirements, contains the results of the use of this method. Setting the Standards for Levels of Service Because the need for capital facilities is determined largely by the adopted LOS, the key to influencing the CFP is to influence the selection of the LOS standards. LOS standards are measures of the quality of life of the community. The standards should be based on the community's vision of its future and its values. Traditional approaches to capital facilities planning rely on technical experts (i.e., staff and consultants) to determine the need for capital improvements. In the scenario-driven approach, these experts play an important advisory role, but they do not control the determination. Their role is to define and implement a process for the review of various scenarios, to analyze data, and to make suggestions based on technical considerations. The final, legal authority to establish the LOS rests with the City Council because the City Council enacts the LOS standards that reflect the community's vision. The Ciry Council's decision should be influenced by recommendations of the 1) Planning Commission; 2) providers of public facilities (i.e., local government departments, special districts, private utilities, the State of Washington, tribal governments, etc.); 3) formal advisory groups that make recommendations to the providers of public facilities (i.e., community planning groups); 4) the general public through individual citizens and community civic, business, and issue-based organizations that make their views known or are sought through sampling techniques. The scenario-driven approach to developing the LOS standards provides decision-makers and anyone else who wishes to participate with a clear statement of the outcomes of various LOS for each type of public facility. This approach reduces the tendency for decisions to be controlled by expert staff or consultants, opens up the decision-making process to the public and advisory groups, and places the decisions before the City_ Council.

Since the existing collection system already serves most of the.Ciry's service area, expansion of this system will occur almost entirely by infM development, which will be accomplished primarily through developer extensions and local improvement districts. In general, the existing sewer system is sized based on existing standards which will carry peak flows which will be generated by the service area for ultimate development. However, the City of Kent Comprehensive Sewerage Plan has identified various undersized lines, as well as others that require rehabilitation. A complete inventory of Sanitary Sewer facilities is found in the City of Kent Comprehensive Sewerage Plan. The Municipality of Metropolitan Seattle (Metro) has assumed the responsibility for interception, treatment, and disposal of wastewater from the City of Kent and its neighboring.commtrnities. Therefore, the City does not incur any direct capacity-related capital facilities requirements or costs for sanitary sewer treatment. The voluminous 1 inventory of current Sanitary Sewer facilities is on file with the City's Department of Public Works. t l The geographic locations of the sanitary sewer facilities are found on Figure 8.2.c� STORMWATER MANAGEMENT FACILITIES The City of Kent lies primarily within the Green River Watershed, wW�ch encompasses 480 square miles and the total drainage area of the City is J'sgGane 17 which includes most of the incorporated city, as well as the adjacent franchise areas within unincorporated King County. The eight major watershed areas include (1) Green River; (2) Lake Fenwick; (3) Midway; (4) Mill Creek (Kent); (5) Mill Creek (Auburn); (6) Mullen Slew; (7) Springbrook-Garrison Creek; (8) Star Lake. The City has operated a stormwater utility since 1981 as a means of financier the construction, operation, and maintenance of the surface water management program. Conveyance systems in both the "billside" and "valley" areas must convey at Minimum the 25 year storm event. The 8-10 K VT COMPREHENSIVE PLAN CHAPTER EIGHT CAPITAL FAC=IES ELEMENT standards include requirements to provide water quality control recommended by the "State Department of Ecology Stormwater Management Manual". The voluminous inventory of current stormwater management facilities is on file with the City's Department of Public Works. The geographic locations of the stormwater management facilities are found on Figure 8.3. o�-- WATER SUPPLY, DISTRIBUTION, AND STORAGE FACILITIES The water service area of the City encompasses 27 square miles. This area includes most of the incorporated City, as well as adjacent franchise areas within unincorporated King County. To the east, the service area boundary coincides with the boundary of Water District No. 111 and Soos Creek Sewer and Water District. To the north, the service area boundary coincides with the mutual Kent/Rentoa and Kent/Tukwila city limits. to-the west, it coincides with Highline Water District's boundary, and to the south, the City's service area boundary coincides with the City of Auburn, and Federal \` Way Sewer and Water District. The principal sources of water supply for the City's C water system are Kent Springs and Clark Springs. During high demand periods, the capacity of these two sources is exceeded, and supplemental well facilities are activated. These sources are adequate to meet peak day demands; however, during an extreme dry/hot spell, the City purchases water from adjacent purveyors. Water system interties are presently available with Highline Water District, Tukwila, and Renton during such emergency situations; however, these sources are not considered to be dependable for meeting Ions-term demand requirements. A new open storage reservoir is proposed to be located on a site near 124th Avenue SE and SE 304th Street. The City also plans a future interne with Tacoma's pipeline 5 project. The water distribution system exists throughout most of the City's service area. Expansion will take place almost entirely through infill development, which will be accomplished primarily through developer extensions. Most of the remaining projects in the City's most recent water system Plan consist primarily of water main replacements and upsizing in older portions of the system. A Comprehensive Water System Plan update is required by the Washington State Department of Social and Health Services (DSHS) every five years. The City's most recent Water System Plan (completed in 1988 and amended in 1990) has been approved by DSHS.

The recent Downtown Parking Study suggested that there is an imbalance in Iong- and short-term parking in the downtown area. It is also agreed that the existing downtown park-and-ride is too far from downtown for employees to use, and that existing transit service from that lot to downtown is inconvenient. Conversion of the area near the BN tracks to long-term transit/commuter parking would require relocation of some existing long-term, general-use parking. If the area is not appropriately sized, on-street parking in downtown could be affected by spillover as a result of increased use of transit. System Management Alternatives - The City currently is involved in two projects to improve system operation in the valley. One is a multijurisdictional examination and review of signal timing and coordination for valley arterials that cross jurisdictional bounds. The outcome of this project should be improved flow on major roads and the ability, via computer technology, to adjust signal cycles as demand warrants. The second project is within the City and includes installing a new master computer for the Citv's signal system. This will allow the City to adjust signal cycles as demand varies. As technology improves over the next 10 to 20 years, a system of surveillance, control, and driver information (SC&Dn, similar to that operated by WSDOT on I-5, I-90. and SR 520, would be appropriate for the principal arsenals in south King County. This would allow drivers to be notified where back-ups are occurring and what alternate- routes may be available. It also would provide a way to meter traffic entering congested facilities. LVIPROVEMENT PROGRAMS Six-Year Program Every year, the City adopts a transportation improvement program aimed at showing impZovements and expenditures over the next six vears. The program adopted for 199)(-7 200,q generally provides adequate levels of service and corrects existing deficiencies, as defined by the City's service standard.

A number of projects have been identified, including road widening for general purpose traffic and for HOV lanes, completion of the regional network, and conversion of lanes for peak-period HOV use. FiaeL � ".ffs�iFnr 0 2020 Improvements A similar project list has been identified for implementation between 2010 and 2020, assuming growth occurs at the rate identified in the land use These projects include more widening, primarily to serve HOV users. TRANSPORTATION FINANCING & I'Vi IPLIlV[ENTATION PLAN The creation of a financing and implementation plan is critical to the overall development of the transportation element. In turn the transportation element is a critical element of the comprehensive plan. Development of a financing and implementation plan involves the examination of a number of issues including, improvements to the street system, transit, parking, pedestrian and bicycle facilities. A key tool of the examination was the development of a compute: forecast model which simulates the future year travel patterns on the City's transportation system. A key parameter in determining the needs of the system was service levels. under Growth Manasement service levels or degree of congestion is a local discretion subject however to consistent; at jurisdictional boundaries. The methodology used to develop the financing plan was consistent with that of the countywide planning policies. This section is a critical component of the transportation element, and as such plays a important part in enabling growth to occur in concert with the land use projections. ` = While the KENT COMPREHENSr t PLAN 9-2 Table 9.4 Sic Year Capital Improvement Program (1997 - 2002) (in Thousands) 1"7 I"ll 1999 2000 2001 2002 Revenues Fuel Tax-Unresmcted 929 948 %4 990 992 1.005 Fuel Tax-Arterial 434 443 450 458 464 470 Motor Vehicle Registration Fee 449 456 464 471 477 494 Utility Toes 1,708 1,799 1.379 1,959 2.034 2,112 Interestlncoroe 204 166 166 166 166 167 Sale of Land 1.000 Total Revenues 4,723 3,804 3.924 4,034 4,134 4,238 Expenditures Debt Service 464 469 462 383 391 379 Street Utility Operations 341 352 362 373 394 396 Total Expenditures 905 920 824 756 766 774 Net Available for Capital Projects 3.913 2,993 3,100 3..278 3368 3,463 Sources of Funding Net Available for Capital Projects 2925 2,983 3.100 3,278 3368 3,463 Sale of Property 1.000 Total Sources of Funding 3925 2-993 3.100 3,278 3368 3,463 Capital Project Requests Corridors 196th Street West 47 1.286 196th Sum Middle 1 649 1,913 1,771 272nd Comdor - 930 2.42_1 4,414 739 t28th Sum Corridor 441 Total Corridor 2,426 1.286 4.335 1,771 4,414 1,190 Arterials West Meeker Widening 109 657 72nd Avenue Extension 194 108 SE 256th Improvements(I 16th-132nd) Z?_", 262 212th Street Pavement RermbiLtauon 300 Total Artrnais ,`_; 756 108 109 657 Intersection Improvements Military Road Improvements 149 lames&Central Right Turn Lanc 70 42nd&Reith Road Pedctnal Signal 55 Torsi Intersection Improvernents 5 7C 149 Other improvements Canyon Drive Sidewalk/Bike lanes 408 268 South Central Pavement Renabmution 350 Sidewalk Rehabilitation 300 300 30C 300 300 300 Bikc Paths 100 too too 100 MisceAaneow Asphalt Overlays 237 347 357 368 379 390 Kent Shuttle Service 60 Street Lighung Wiring Up6r2d= 60 60 Traffic Signal Operational/Swery lmorovemcnts 30 42nd Avenue South Reeonsouc4an 75 Road and Railroad Separation Snidv too Traffic Signal Controller Cabtnet Replaeemenu 40 40 20 40 40 GIs Software Conversion 19 Toni Other Improvements 1,294 1.030 757 848 879 1.180 Total Street Fund Projects 3.175 2.609 5.948 2.876 5,402 3.017 Revenues over(under)Expeoditur 143 374 ("749) 402 (2,034) 446 Beginning Fund Balance Unrestricted 223 736 111 650 582 644 Restricted 79 376 455 10 218 433 S[reel Utility 225 3-242 3 1 60 1320 1.582 (730) Corridor Improvr4neit Balance Avatlabic 3,676 Beginning Fund Balance 4105 4.354 4,728 1.98U 2391 347 Ending Fund Balance Unroatncicd 736 513 650 582 644 419 Rcstncica 376 455 10 218 433 105 Siren Uuhty 3.242 1760 1.320 1.582 (73W '71 Ending Fund Balance 4.354 4.72g 1980 2,341 347 794 FIGURE 9.3 CITY OF KENT, WASHINGTON 6 YEAR CIP PROJECT COSTS Non-motorized&Maint Imps(8.88%)-z Intersections(0.78%)—\ Arterials (20.57%) Corridor Projects(69.78%) i CITY OF KENT, WASHINGTON 6 -17EAR CIP REVENT-TS LIDS (21.98%)— VMX Existing Sources(38.33%) i l i f i i Grants (39.70%) Existing sources include cash on nand.

Section 15.08.350 of the Kent Citv Code entitled "Accessory " I Dxyelling knit Reuulations" is lierehv amended by amendin�u, subsection (B)7 to read as follows: 1-4 i I Sec. 15.08.350. Accessory Dwelling Unit Regulations. A. Intent. The city provides these accessory dwelling unit regulations for the following purposes: 1. To increase the supply of affordable rental units through better use of the existing housing stock. much of which is under-utilized because the baby boom has been followed by an empty nester boom, because there are fewer children per family, because there are more single parent households, and because there are more one- and two-person elderly households. ?. To make home ownership more affordable because it will be easier to buy both new and existing homes with the help of an accessory apartment. ;. To make it more comfortable for older people to retain their homes because an accessory apartment can provide them with added income, security. companionship, and the opportunity to trade rent reductions for needed services. 4. To make it easier for single parents to meet mortgage payments and hold onto their homes in the wake of a divorce and, as a result, keep their children in the same neighborhood. 5. To increase the opportunity for disabled persons to live independently because accessory units can provide them with both privacy and the proximity to needed support. 6. To reduce the isolation of households that is a result of increased affluence in housing, and/or longer life spans and periods of frailty. and/or suburban land use patterns that isolate people who cannot drive. 7. To make better use of existing, public investment in streets, transit_ water. sewer. and other utilities. Q. Standards and criteria. 1. One ( 1 ) ADU per dwelling unit is allowed out-right within all R1. single-family residential zones. and single-family dwellings within the cite. I� �. An ADU may be established in a new or existing single-family dwelling b} creating the unit within or in addition to the dwelling. or as a detached unit from the principal dwelling. 3. The ADU, as well as the main dwelling unit, must meet all applicable setbacks. lot coverage, and building height requirements. 4. The design and size of an ADU shall conform to all applicable standards in the building. plumbing. electrical, mechanical, fire, health, and any other applicable codes. When there are practical difficulties involved in carrying out the provisions of this section_ the building official may grant modifications for individual cases pursuant to section 106 of the Uniform Building Code and as subsequently amended or recodified. 5. One (1 ) of the dwelling units shall be owner occupied as the owner(s) principal residence for at least six (6) months a vear. No permit for an ADU will be issued until the owner files a covenant evidencing this use limitation against the propem : this covenant trust also be recorded in the records of the King County Auditor This covenant shall be in a form acceptable to the city attorne%. 6. If both the ADU or the principal unit ceases to be owner occupied for more than six (6) months. the .AD1 permit shall be deemed revoked and use of the unit as an AD[ must ceasr immediatel%. 7. The size of an \D1 contained v%ithin or attached to an existing single-family structure shall hr limited by the existing structure's applicable zoning requirement,_ :An :ADI incorporated in the construction of a new single-tamil.% hots>c shall he limited to fort% (40) percent of the principal unit. The size ota detached \D[ for either new construction or an existing home. shall he up to cP_ht iutndred (SO0) square feet or thirtm- three (33) percent o(the siic )t the principal unit. whichever is smaller. A le�.ial uluest cottage, as defined h% h:'nt Lontm, Code section 15.02.174, existing prior to Novemher ,1 . 1 QW� ntitrtttinshall not be denied an i 10 i I accessory housing permit solely because it is larger than the maximum size stated in this criteria. Anv legally constructed accessory building, existing prior to November 21 1995 may be converted to an accessory dwelling i unit provided the structure does not exceed fifty (501 percent of the size of the principal unit. 8. The owner or developer shall take every effort to avoid additional entrances or other visible chances on the street facade of the house which indicates the presence of an ADU. 9. A permit application must be completed and approved for all ADUs. The planning department shall determine the application requirements for an ADU permit. 10. ADUs existing prior to the adoption of the accessory housing ordinance may be found to be legal on the condition that the property owner applies for an ADU permit and complies with all required standards and provisions. Such property owners have a one-year period from the date the accessory housinu, ordinance is adopted in which to apply for an ADU permit. after which time such property owners can be subject to fines and penalties established in this title. 11 . Adjacent neighbors of an ADU applicant shall be notified of the ADU zoning permit application. 7 his notification is informational only. The decision by the planning department to grant an ADU zoning permit is nonappcalable by the neighbors of the permit holder.

By Committee motion the referenced letters were then made a part of the public record. Ed White stated that the City is presently in the design phase to install a signal at the crosswalk of Central &Pioneer. Ed gave an estimated time of early July when the signal would be installed and fully operational. Because we do have ISTEA funds as part of this project, there is also a brief review process required by the State in terms of reviewing the plans and specifications. Ed noted that this will be a pedestrian activated signal. Wickstrom noted that we started out with a flasher signal for this crossing with a project cost of$27,000. We have now upgraded the project to a full signal. Our local match was still there for a flasher signal however, now we would like to transfer $23,000 from our 104th& 256th Street Improvement project that was completed; we have extra money left from that project and would like transfer funds into the signal project which is now estimated to be $50,000. Committee unanimously concurred with the transfer of $23,000 from the 104th & 256th Street Improvement project into the Central Ave& Pioneer Signal project. 2 �d ono Kent City Council Meeting Date January 21, 1997 Category Consent Calendar 1.

Brent McFall, Operations Director��G�'-/ SUBJECT: Mayor and Council Compensation Recently several members of Council have inquired as to what authority City Council has to adjust its level of compensation as well as that of the Mayor. This memorandum will attempt to answer those questions (which we have found to be rather complex) in a simple fashion. However, should you have questions or require additional explanation, staff will be happv to respond at vour Committee Meeting or to develop additional information. Attached for your information is a report summarizing elected officials salary and benenrs for selected cities in King County and including King County government. You may find this information useful as you contemplate what action you may wish to take. However, you will find from reviewing the information that there is not a great deal of consistency from city to city with respect to either salary or benefits. With respect to the position of Mayor, the Ciry Council has the authority to establish salary and benefit levels. This can be done at any time during the Mayors term or it could be done effecrive at the conclusion of the current term of office. Additionally, once a satisfactory salary level is established, Council could determine that an annual cost of living adjustment (COLA) is appropriate and specify such by ordinance. In doing so, Council would be best advised to select a recognized index such as the CPI-W Seartle and peg any cost of living adjusurent to that index. In reviewing the Mayor's compensation package, several issues come to light which may warrant attention by Council. First would be to consider adjusting the Mayor's salary to a level comparabie with the Cities of Auburn and Renton which have comparable full-time mayoral positions. Second, Council may want to specify by ordinance an annual cost of living adiustment, and third, sta=i would recommend that the Mayors management benefir compensation be adjusted to the level of 51.500 annually. Finally, Council may want to consider whether or not to provide the Mavcr vrith a monthly car allowance rather t.,har. requiring actual mileage reimbursement. All of the adjustments discussed above could be done effective thiry days after adoption of the appropriate ordinance by Council. Council compensation is more difficult to adjust. Since Council is responsible for establishing irs own salary, it is prohibited from making adius=. eats to that salary except when it ma:Kes ttnese adjustments effective at the conclusion of the current ter:.s of office being served by r—*-e Councilmembers affected. This genera: rule apples to all for s of salary and compensation A-.--- the exception of medical care. The legs:ature has by statute determined that medical coverage s not "additional compensation". Therefore, Council could add this benefit mid-te-.n. As noted above, City Council could adjust its salary and compensation at the conclusion of the current terms. In addition to salary, Council could add participation in the state Public Employee Retirement System as well as additional other benefits such as disability coverage, life insurance and so forth A"car allowance" or expense allowance" could be implemented to replace the current expense reimbursement provision which is infrequently used by Councilmembers. Council could also implement a cost of living adjustment, effective at the end of the current terms, that would adjust future Council salaries on an annual basis without requiring Council action at that time. As stated with respect to the Mayor's position, this would best be done by selecting a specific index such as the CPI-W Seattle and then by ordinance pegging the COLA to that index. This could be in the form of something like 80% of the CPI-W, July to July, each year. This is consistent with the approach we normally take when looking at employee salaries and any COLA which we might offer. In conclusion, there is little which Council can do at this time to adjust their current salary and compensarion with the exception of medical coverage. Any action which Council wishes to take to adjust salary and compensation level other than adding medical care would need to be effective at the conclusion of current terms. The Mayor's salary and compensation can be adjusted at any time. Several suggestions for such adjustments are outlined above. Please feel free to ask for any additional information or clarification. cc: Mayor Jim White G� O� i � V1 P � lJ lP � L �. ^• O� V �: �Ol ' N N N N N Vl '.

John Hodgson commended the Recreation staff on their presentation and the great service they provide. He stated how proud he is of the staff and what they do. Judy Woods affirmed and added her compliments for producing great programs. Parks Committee Minutes December 3, 1996 Page Three Riverbend Golf Complex Management Study Task Force: In June 1996 the Parks Committee gave approval to form a Task Force comprised of city staff, S.S.M.D. staff, advisory board representatives, Ladies and Mens club representatives and non-golfers. The Task Force was assigned to complete a comprehensive and thorough review of various golf complex management options and trends, and make a recommendation as to the future management of the Riverbend Golf Complex. The Task Force met 4-5 times to review information from SSMD and City staff and delivered a recommendation to the Parks Committee meeting. Task Force member George Billings represented the committee and introduced fellow members in the audience: Jerri Proszek, Rosemary Mastro, and Charles Turner. Mr. Billings read the Task Force recommendation. In summary, the committee recommends the City operate the Golf Complex. Jon Johnson stated it was a pleasure serving on this Task Force, it was a diverse group with a tough decision to make. Connie Epperly commented that the City should not be in the golf business and she does not support the recommendation. She also stated that other local golf courses have less expenses. George Billings and Chuck Turner both responded that comparisons need to be of similar facilities to Riverbend (apples to apples); there are no courses similar to Riverbend - it is much larger. Chuck Turner added that if the city operated the course,it would not preclude portions of the operation being contracted out, such as the restaurant, pro shop, etc. Jim Stone requested an evaluation of S.S.M.D. He felt that because the city is seeking other options, it is a "black eye" for S.S.M.D. George Billings replied that this decision in no way implicates S.S.M.D. as a poor manager, but merely recognizes the City's attributes and recommends the operation of the complex be assumed by the City of Kent. John Hodgson requested time to conduct an examination as to the relevance of the Parks and Recreation Department operating the complex. Parks Committee agreed to give John and staff until February 1977 to prepare an operation proposal. Jon Johnson moved to accept the Task Force recommendation and direct Parks and Recreation staff to develop a proposal to operate the Riverbend Golf Complex. John Johnson voted yes, Connie Epperly voted no. and Chair Judy Woods voted yes. Motion carried 2-1. Parks Committee Minutes December 3, 1996 Page Four John was also directed to have the Task Force review the report prior to it going to Council. It was also recommended that all Council comments, questions, and concerns go directly to John Hodgson prior to completion of the report. Added item: Soos Creek Water & Sewer District Proposed Annexation P-341 Petition: The City of Kent owns approximately 30 acres of property in the proposed annexation area. Future development of the property will invariable include sewer. This petition places the property within the sewer boundary areas and will not create a tax or other financial impact until the property is developed. Staff is seeking recommendation for Mayor White to sign the petition. Connie Epperly moved to recommend Mayor White sign the Soos Creek Water & Sewer District Proposed Annexation P-341 Petition. Jon Johnson seconded. Motion carried 3-0. Meeting adjourned at 5:40 p.m. A 1996 Kent City Council Target Issues include the Review and Evaluation of Parks and Recreation programming. This report is a response to that target issue and will identify all programs and activities; participation levels; evaluation tools and methods; evaluation results and how they impact current and future programming. The City's role is well defined in the attached Parks and Recreation vision statement. The mission of the Recreation and Cultural Program areas is to provide fun, creative, and meaningful activities for the Kent Community. The department works cooperatively with other service providers to make sure that there are no gaps or overlaps in service. When appropriate, collaborative partnerships are formed to better serve the needs of the community in the most efficient and economical way possible. PROGRAM AREAS Recreation provides athletic leagues, clinics, and seminars for over 1,164 teams comprised of 21,000 youth and adult participants. Recently included in this division are youth and adult arts, fitness, leisure and community education/enrichment classes; over 780 class sessions serve the needs of 13.500 - participants. 442,000 people visit the commons annually. Cultural and Special Services includes the City of Kent .Arts Commission programs featuring 50-60 annual performances for 60,000- people; City Art Program $2 per capita for public art (the art collection currently includes 230 pieces valued at approximately $1 million); city-wide special events; Canterbury Faire, Kent International Balloon Classic, Kids Arts Festival, Holiday Bazaar, Christmas Rush. and support for the Performing Arts Center Task Force. Senior Center and Adult Day Care provides recreationai, educational, social, nutritional. and health related programs and services to the community's senior population, ages Programming is designed to enhance dignity, support independence, and encourage involvement in the community. With 4,600 registered participants. the center hosts over 127.050 visits annually, 75 class sessions. 15 1 trips and tours, 100- meals served per day in the Mill Creek Cafe, and 48 clients daily in adult day care. Specialized Recreation provides a full range of programs and services for citizens with disabilities and their families. 2.500- participants attend 124 classes annually focusing on skill building, enrichment, recreation, and sports. 324 athletes participate in 9 Special Olympic Sports. 100.000 people use the Resource Center annually. Youth and Teen Services provides a collection of afterschool, evening, and weekend recreational activities for youth and teens who do not have access to traditional services. Programs are "youth driven", strengthen self esteem, leadership, and empower teens to become valued partners in their community. Aquatics provides 744 hours of seasonal beach coverage at Lake Meridian to insure safe use of beach front water activities and surrounding park areas. Statistics: Individual program participation totals are located at the back of this report. In most cases the annual comparisons reflect strong participation. Fluctuations in participation tend to mirror changes in age and make up of our community. Trends are tracked very carefully with results indicating in some cases, a need for expansion while in other cases. it is necessary to eliminate programs which have run their course and replace them with new options. EVALUATION Evaluation has always been a routine part of all Parks Department programming. Evaluative tools and methods vary from program to program however the purpose of the evaluation process remains constant across all program areas. Programs are evaluated to insure that this department is offering the best product possible with the resources that are available to us. Evaluation Methods/Tools include: - Standard written evaluation forms which are routinely sent to everyone involved in a program such as participants, parents of participants. iunteer coaches, instructors, event sponsors, facility users, audience members, etc. This method usually occurs at the conclusion of the activity with results being used for future programs. - Group meetings such as pre-season coaches meetings. instructor meetings, introductory or informational meetings held prior to participation, community meetings, and staff meetings. offer an immediate opportunity for gathering input, suggestions, and feedback. - Telephone surveys involve making random calls to participants to ask for their opinions. - Direct contact with participants during the course of a class or activity. Staff regularly visit program sites and the information they gather there is often instrumental in bringing about program revisions or improvements. - Correspondence reflects participant expectations and level of satisfaction. - Feedback from other Parks Departments locally or across the nation. - Acknowledgement and awards directed to staff or programs. - One on one contacts. The staff are well known and visible in the Kent -iuniry and it is not uncommon for them to be approached in any number of public places b, eone with a comment or suggestion. - Participation totals provide valuable information about progra trends ar.- popularirv. - Budget review. Revenue and expenditure printouts are reviewed every month and individual program budgets are reviewed every quarter to insure that budget obligations are being met. Evaluation results have brought about a number of chan2esiimprovements in programming. Examples of recent changes: - Tossball was created in response to a variety of input to meet the needs of those participants who were bevond t-ball skill level but not vet skilled enough to play stan.card baseball or softball. - After vears of offering successful slowpitch softball leagues for girls. .-. ..ds at the interscholastic level and participant feedback suggested that it was time to ;fifer youth girls fastpitch softball. The program was initiated in 199= with 3 teams and has grown to 1; teams in 1996 with continued increase in -1 nicipation expected. - Patron input requested a cold ss er in the Commons locker roorns to assist athletes in cooling down. A cold shower was recent, ristalled with substantial positive feedback. - Parents of students in the Wiggles and Giggles class ( -5, vear olds) enjoyed the class so much that they were disappointed when their youngsters were too old to participate. The rids in Motion class was created as a result of parent input to meet the needs of older participants. - The entire youth/ teen program from the creation of the utility tax to the wide vanety of prograng is a result of following national trends and listening to community voices. This mmi program will continue to change and grow over time. - Creation of the Mill Creek Cafe at the Senior Center was a result of participant feedback and the willingness of staff to explore affordable options ava:iable to them. They've created one of the most highly regarded Senior lunch programs in the state. - The Reclamation Art program grew out of community and staff concern regarding vandalism. - The Quarterly brochure has gone through a number of changes resulting from the evaluation process; from the look of the cover and layout and design to class descriptions and the registration process. - In response to 1996 Counci , program staff have continued l Target Issues and community input to work with golf course staff to develop a junior golf program; more youth volunteers are used than ever before; an incredible skate park was completed; the "Adopt-a- " program is thriving; teen programs are growing; and we continue to build relationships with the school district. The list of changes and improvements is endless. The point is that input is welcome. encouraged, and facilitated. Feedback and suggestions are put in place whenever possible to make existing programs better, to know when certain programs have run their course and are no longer viable, and to determine the course of future programming. Perhaps our best assurance of quality programming is this departments dedicated. talented, and hard working staff. Every staff member invests a great deal of personal pride in the work that the department accomplishes. Program success is a measure of their professional skills and abilities. Current and Future Needs: Facilities are now and will likely continue to be one of the greatest programming challenges. School District and city owned fields and gymnasiums are heavily used by interscholastic programs, parks department programs, and community user groups. This high need for facilities coupled with a limited supply has brought about some program changes such as game scheduling within the vouth basketball program. In order to provide adequate practice time for the more than 2-12 youth teams, games were moved to Saturdays. Time limits and run rules are also in place to insure that all teams have equitable and balanced participation. Changes in the community will bring about program changes. A prime example is the 1997 opening of the Regional Justice Center which we anticipate will bring about greater use of the Commons during daytime hours. Aerobics and weight room programs are being prepared to meet the fitness needs of RJC employees. The department takes pride in offering affordable programs. Meeting participant expectations while keeping costs under control will be an on-going challenge. It is also important to note that every youth participant that registers participates regardless of their skill level or ability to pay. This requires a continued strong working relationship with community business's, service groups, and individuals who support team sponsorship and scholarship programs. This review and evaluation would suggest that the Kent Parks Department is meeting and in many cases exceeding the goals and expectations se, for it by our community. This is .however. an ever changing community and so as needs and expectations change, so will programs. We're working hard today to prepare for tomorrow. NOVEMBER 15 , 1996 DR . .JUDY WOODS .

Board of Coinuussioncrs Soos Creek Water and Sewe: Disuic: 14616 S.E. 192nd Suwt PUBLIC,WORKS COMMITTEE January 15, 1997 PRESENT: Tim Clark Tom Brubaker Judy Woods Gary Gill Connie Epperly Ed White Don Wickstrom Representatives from Kent Jr. High School Regional Wastewater Services Plan Wickstrom noted this is an information item for the Committee so that when it does go before the County Council, we will be aware of the process. Shirley Marroquin of ling County Wastewater Treatment Division presented the following key points relative to the County's Regional Wastewater Services Plan. This is the First time since 1958 that the Countv has looked comprehensively at its wastewater needs. Current forecasts show that IGng County sewage treatment facilities will reach capacity by 2008 and because it can take up to 10 years to design and build new treatment capacity, a decision thereon is needed relatively soon. Further, because existing growth has used up much of the Countv's pipeline system capacity which was built in the 1960's. More overflows are now occurring. To prevent frequent overflows from the separated sewer system we need to either increase pipeline capacity or reduce wastewater volumes coming into the IGng County system. One way to reduce volume is to control "infiltration and inflow of non-wastewater flows into sanitary sewers. Ms. Vlarroquin also noted the Regional Wastewater Plan identifies four strategies to address the treatment and overflow issues. The total dollar magnitude of these 4 strategies ranges from 5700,000,000 to S 1.6 Billion Dollars. Included in the strategies is a review of the County%s wastewater "level of service" or how much protection gets built into the System to prevent overflows and assures that we always meet our permitted limits for wastewater treatment plant discharges. A reduced level of service could affect Kent with more sewage overflows into streams, streets and basements during heavy rainstorms. Maps were provided to the Committee sho«zng the routes of the existing wastewater system and to which plants the wastewater is directed. Ms. Marroquin stated that it is necessary to plan comprehensively in order to protect the rate pavers investments. 1 Additional items: Traffic Signal na Pioneer &-Central Connie O'Iceefe,Admin. Assistant at Kent Jr. High submitted letters to the Committee specifying the school's request for a pedestrian signal at the crosswalk of Central Ave & Pioneer St. Tyler Hill, a student at Kent Jr. High also submitted a letter of request for a traffic light at Central &Pioneer. By Committee motion the referenced letters were then made a part of the public record. Ed White stated that the City is presently in the design phase to install a signal at the crosswalk of Central &-Pioneer. Ed gave an estimated time of early July when the signal would be installed and fully operational. Because we do have ISTEA funds as part of this project, there is also a brief review process required by the State in terms of reviewing the plans and specifications. Ed noted that this will be a pedestrian activated signal. Wickstrom noted that we started out with a flasher signal for this crossing with a project cost of $27,000. We have now upgraded the project to a full signal. Our local match was still there for a flasher signal however, now we would like to transfer 523,000 from our 104th &256th Street Improvement project that was completed; we have extra money left from that project and would like transfer funds into the signal project which is now estimated to be 550,000. Committee unanimously concurred with the transfer of $23,000 from the 104th & 256th Street Improvement project into the Central Ave &.Pioneer Signal project. 196th Street Corridor (West Leg) - Condemnation Tom Brubaker explained that this involves a request from Committee to approve the process to begin condemnation eminent domain authority over certain properties on the proposed S. 196th Street Corridor. The section of road involved is lying west of the Green River between Orillia Rd and the Green River. The memo to the Committee indicated two property owners however there are three property owners. Negotiations have been unsuccessful with these property owners and we hope to reach a settlement long before litigation commences. Tom noted that because of the time frame on the project, we need the authoritv now to commence litigation under eminent domain to condemn strips of property so that ,ve may complete this road project. Committee unanimouslv recommended condemnation proceedings on the three properties in question adjacent to the S. 196th Street Corridor (West Leg). 1) Surplus Vehicles - Authorization Wickstrom explained that we have a list of certain Equipment Rental vehicles we would like to surplus and it is our intent to get these vehicles into the February 5th auction. At this time, we are asking for approval to declare this equipment as surplus. Committee unanimously recommended that these vehicles be declared as surplus and authorized the sale thereof at the next state auction. Meeting adjourned: 4:15 p.m. 3
