ments conducting social card games as a commercial
stimulant . Enhanced card rooms have resulted in

Kent City Council Minutes June 1, 1999
PUBLIC market under the concept that the building would
DEVELOPMENT be owned and renovated by the Public Development
AUTHORITY Authority (PDA) , and that the PDA would then enter
into a lease agreement with the Kent Downtown
Partnership who would actually operate the market .
He noted that the City purchased the site,
transferred ownership of that site to the PDA
along with some cash, and also agreed to guarantee
a bank loan that the PDA would enter into to help
pay for the renovations . He noted that the loan
has been negotiated with U. S . Bank and that this
resolution is just a finalization of all that
activity. He explained that the Bank has asked
for just one more resolution which approves the
loan, reiterates the guarantee, authorizes the
Assignment of Rents document to be signed, and
authorizes him to sign on behalf of the City, and
then the PDA can start draws against the loan to
pay for the construction.
McFall reminded the Council that the Public
Development Authority' s loan will be paid back by
the PDA and that the City would only exercise its
guarantee if the Public Market was unable to meet
its obligations . He explained that the City would
have several options available to proceed includ-
ing operating the market itself or sell the
facility.
WOODS MOVED to pass Resolution No . 1543 , relating
to and authorizing the redevelopment loan to be
entered into between the Kent Downtown Public
Market Development Authority and U. S . Bank
National Association. Epperly seconded and the

DATE: May 18, 1999
RE: REQUEST FOR ADDITIONAL PROBATION OFFICER POSITION
As you are aware, our probation department has been making great strides toward
meeting our goals of getting organized and supervising all of the assigned probationers.
We are, however, all dedicated to establishing a department that holds defendants
accountable while working to establish a change in behaviors that ultimately effect
change in the community.
_ Since the majority of cases assigned to probation are DUI and Domestic Violence
charges, the supervision and mandatory requirements to meets those objectives remain
high; these cases require a great deal of time and work.
We are currently at full capacity with the three probation officers on staff; unfortunately
one is currently classified as a temporary position.
We are therefore requesting that the temporary probation officer position be moved to a
full time probation officer position effective June 1, 1999. The costs for this change
would be $32,270.
Our estimated probation revenue for 1999 is $217,000. Through April 1999 we have
collected an average of $18,000 per month and should collect the full amount estimated
by the end of the year. We are proposing to use the probation department revenue to
fund this new position through 1999.

and trespassers have used their yards to access the lake .
These streets have also become so congested that safe passage
by emergency vehicles has been threatened. These problems
occur during the warmer days of the year, when use of the park
is at its peak. This ordinance would prohibit parking between
12 : 00 p.m. and 8 : 00 p.m. from May 15th to September 15th of
each year. Because of threat to access of emergency vehicles
over the Fourth of July weekend, this item is presented as an

re: Added Item to Agenda for City Council Meeting of June 15, 1999:
Emergency Ordinance: Seasonal no parking zone—Lake Meridian
date: June 14, 1999
Attached you will find a copy of an ordinance entitled "Seasonal no parking zone — Lake
Meridian." This ordinance makes it illegal to park a vehicle in the neighborhood immediately east
of Lake Meridian between the hours of 12:00 p.m. and 8:00 p.m. for the period of May 15`h through
September 15`h of each year.
This issue was discussed at the Public Works/Planning Committee on June 7, 1999. During
that meeting, the committee received testimony from neighborhood citizens, and representatives of
the Police Department, the Parks Department, and the City Attorney's office. The committee voted
to approve an ordinance that would prohibit on-street parking during these dates and times. The
attached ordinance is in response to the decision of the committee.
With the Fourth of July holiday pending,which is one of busiest days at Lake Meridian, and
traditionally one of the busiest days for our public safety staff, it would be best to make this
ordinance effective immediately. The passage of this ordinance should rectify the following
problems: (1) potential limited access by emergency vehicles; (2) vehicles parked on the private
property of residents of the neighborhood; (3) vehicles being parked in front of private driveways;
(4) trespassers who use the property of the neighborhood to access Lake Meridian; and (5) litter
being deposited throughout the neighborhood by users of Lake Meridian.
As the weather becomes warmer,the use of Lake Meridian and Lake Meridian Park increases
dramatically. With that increased use comes a dramatic increase in the number of vehicles parked
in the affected neighborhood. Accordingly,the ordinance is being added as an emergency ordinance
which, if passed, would go into effect immediately. There would, however,be some delay in order
for the Public Works Department to erect the proper signs. Please note that, as an emergency
ordinance, this item must be passed by a majority plus one of the councilmembers present.

ballot tapes, and encourage voters to register and get out to vote. Candidate Forums could be
conducted by citizen groups, associations, or organizations.
Tim Clark was concerned about air time involved in the case of a crowded primary field and
suggested making the statement in Section 2-C to air those people that are candidates in the primary
election as a primary grouping, and then all survivors, plus those that are only facing one opponent,
to air in the section between the primary and the general elections. A 32-minute video format could
be created to run for the month of October. Judy Woods clarified that in non-partisan municipal
races, if only two people apply for a particular position then there is not a primary.
Brent McFall explained that by taking presentations for each candidate, even the person unopposed
would have the opportunity to be taped and all the candidates would be shown prior to the primary.
At the conclusion of the primary and the certification of the surviving candidates, only those
candidates who did not survive the primary would be removed and the same presentation would be
made for all candidates again even if unopposed. Tim Clark said he would prefer distinguishing
between true legitimate primary races and the final election. A candidate would not get viewed if
they were not to be voted on.
Mr. Clark felt there was a need also for a visual presentation of platform, and preferred allowing
candidates to make a Powerpoint presentation that could be edited in with the actual "talking head"
presentation so both the person and the program could be seen in a professional fashion. Each
candidate would have to take care of their own presentation and then staff would insert it and tape it.
It should be specified that only the Powerpoint format would be allowed so as not to overtax staff
time. There would still be a four minute limit.
Chair Judy Woods suggested a consultation between the Council Members and Mr. McFall on
revisions to the Resolution and that it then be brought back to the next Operations Committee
meeting on June 1, 1999.
Riverbend Golf Complex Operational Update
Parks Director John Hodgson reminded the Committee of the three major solutions that the Golf
Complex consultant had talked about in the Council Workshop. The solutions were to find ways of
reducing expenses, looking at the current contract to see how it could be restructured so it would be
more beneficial to the City and possibly incentivized, and then looking at the possible sale of assets.
The proposal from the consultant specified the only thing worth selling would be all or part of the Par
3 Course. There are some miscellaneous issues that should be looked at and discussed with the
contractor even though they would not make a lot of money, such as mild improvements, marketing,
fees at the Par 3, and taking a look at food and beverage.
The report looked at two avenues of cost savings. One was to outsource the maintenance, but a
facility would have to be constructed for use by the company chosen, and the debt service paid on it,
so the savings would be reduced. Another issue is contractual oversight. About S100,000 is spent on
contractual oversight on the existing contract. The other issue was reducing the current staffing
levels, not necessarily reducing the number of staff at the facility, but restructuring how many full
time employees there are to part-time. There have been two meetings to discuss that option with the
union which is very interested in working with the City to resolve this. Staff has put together three
proposals to present that save anywhere from $80,000 to S140,000. If the union agrees this reduction
can be accomplished with the Course maintained at the same level as it is now, a recommendation
will be made to pursue that aspect to work within City staff and keep the maintenance in house.
Operations Committee Minutes, 5i 13/99 3
Another cost savings would be shifting the equipment rental program to a municipal lease program.
Right now all the equipment comes through the City's own managed equipment rental. The
consultant's report suggested investigating having all of the equipment used at the golf course come
from one outside vendor product line such as John Deere, Toro, or Jacobson. There is money in the
equipment rental reserve now that's been saved to replace pieces of equipment. If this new program
is started on July 1", that reserve could be put back into the golf course and would constitute an
immediate savings. There will not be a need for new equipment for two—three years so no money
will have to be paid out in that period on replacement. Over the next 24 months there should be'a
savings of about S70,000 a year by not having to put money into equipment rental. Also, by going
into a lease program, a full-time mechanic would not be needed at the facility anymore because most
of the work would be done by an outside operator. In terms of cost savings, by reducing the current
staffing levels by the type of employees, as well as shifting out of the current equipment rental into a
lease program, the City would save just as much or more as the savings outlined by outsourcing the
equipment.
The golf operations contract is now a large fixed fee, and is not incentivized so there is no benefit for
the contractor to go out and work hard, as he wouldn't generate anymore revenue back to his
company. One solution would be contracting out pieces to get some capital investment or benefit by
going with a private merchandising firm that might provide capital investment such as a bigger pro
shop. The current contract doesn't allow any change for 18 months and the only thing that can be
done now is homework. Another part would be to look at bonds which is fairly restrictive in the
length of City contracts. Perhaps a way could be worked with the bond council to make a true
incentive for someone by giving a longer termed contract so they could invest in some capital. The
same thing would apply to food and beverage. Some research will be done to see how the contract
can be improved.
There is a some economic value to the sale of all or part of the Par 3 asset. One thing to consider is
could it be replaced for the amount of money it was sold for. Mr. Hodgson said he didn't believe it
could. Finding land near the golf course would also be a challenge. He said staff would like to know
soon where the Council stands on that issue as there is a 30 year old irrigation system that needs
replacing. There is money in this year's budget to replace it, but the season window to do so is
getting thin. The course can't be closed down to do the work so installing the new system would
have to be done piecemeal.
Judy Woods asked that a proposal be brought on staffing and maintenance to the June 1, 1999
Operations Committee if a conclusion on the negotiations has been reached with the union. She said
she would like to give direction to staff concerning the Par 3 Course and asked for a motion. Tim
Clark said he felt the Par 3 plays a very valuable recreational role and did not see selling it as a
solution to the problem. He moved to direct staff to not consider selling the Par 3 as part of the
program. Sandy Amodt said she would prefer not to vote on anything and does not want to make
piecemeal commitments until all the numbers are together. Judy Woods seconded Mr. Clark's
motion. John Hodgson said the numbers would be available on June I't if an agreement could be
reached with the union. If not, the report would be brought to the June 151h meeting. Ms. Woods said
_ the issue would be postponed until June 1", and asked Mr. Hodgson to bring those parts that would
be possible.
Operations Committee Minutes. 5/18/99 4
March Financial Report
Brent McFall quoted from the first paragraph of the March Financial Report that said "Overall the
first quarter looks good. Revenues are generally performing as expected and expenditures are under
control." He said the memorandum shows that many of the revenue sources are performing above
budget and many expenditures are below budget. Sales tax is something staff watches very carefully.
There is a flattening out which was expected, but it is still growing.
The meeting was adjourned at 4:40PM.

PUBLIC WORKS/PLANNING COMMITTEE MINUTES
May 17, 1999
COMMITTEE MEMBERS PRESENT: Chair Tim Clark, Tom Brotherton, Rico Yingling
STAFF PRESENT: Tom Brubaker, Brent McFall, Don Wickstrom, Gary Gill, Jackie Bicknell
PUBLIC PRESENT: John Santana, Liz Marshall
The meeting was called to order by Chair Tim Clark. There was one added item: Agreement with
TCI.
Approval of:Minutes
Committee Member Tom Brotherton moved to approve the minutes of May 3, 1999. The motion was
seconded by Committee Member Rico Yingling and carried 3-0.
Street Vacation —32°d Ave. South
Public Works Director Don Wickstrom said a valid petition had been received from Highline Water
District to vacate a portion of 32"d Ave. South. A public hearing must be held in accordance with
State law. Tom Brotherton moved that the Public Works/Planning Committee recommend to
,the Council adoption of a Resolution setting a hearing date for the 32"d Avenue South street
vacation. The motion was seconded by Rico Yingling and carried 3-0.
Commute Trip Reduction (CTR) Ordinance
Don Wickstrom said a number of legislative and administrative changes to the CTR program have
taken place and require corresponding changes in local CTR ordinances as they must be consistent
with the State law. The County will not continue to reimburse the City for CTR expenses after July
l't unless the City program is in conformance.
Rico Yingling moved that the Public Works/Planning Committee recommend to the Council
adoption of the CTR Ordinance as developed by the City Attorney's office which brings the
City's CTR program in alignment with the Model Ordinance. The motion was seconded by
Tom Brotherton and carried 3-0.
Agreement with TCI
Assistant City Attorney Tom Brubaker said the City has been working with TCI for a number of
years to get fulfillment of certain franchise obligations. Among those obligations is a commitment to
construct a Public Access Studio for the City of Kent. The time of compliance for that matter is July
1, 1999. Staff has been in intensive negotiations with TCI to develop an acceptable proposal to the
City that would provide a public access studio. Two issues have come up in the negotiations. First,
City staff, along with staff from other South County cities, concur that the facility would best serve
all the cities if it were constructed as a regional facility. The second issue is the concept of a
community access facility which would serve both local community needs and educational needs as
well as free speech public access needs. Rather than have one studio that might be dark a
considerable amount of time, the proposal would explore cooperation with a local Community
College or school system to take advantage of the studio when it's not in use by the public.
The proposal also contemplates two channels so the public access channel could continue and be
available for 24 hour use, and a second educational channel would also be available. The motion
extends the time for performance on the public access studio element in the franchise to September 1,
Public Works/Planning Committee
1999 in order to have time to explore the community access facility partnership concept. The cities
involved would be Renton, Auburn, Kent, Tukwila, Burien, SeaTac, and possibly Federal Way.
Layout would probably be one large facility with two studios for production, three or four rooms for
editing, a control room, lighting for each studio, and a couple of portable studios that could be
checked out so people could make their own shows. Typical hours for public access studios are from
?:OOPM till 10:04PM for use of the studio, usually five or six days a week, Monday through Saturday
or Tuesday through Saturday with longer hours on Saturday.
The City expects TCI to adhere to the expectation that the costs will be supported by TCI. TCI will
probably adjust its rates over time to compensate for the costs of the studio. Rate adjustment is
outside the City's regulatory authority.
Tom Brotherton asked if there would be a charge to the user to put something on the air. Tim Clark
responded that there would be no charge, but they would have to go through training which could
incur a small cost. There would be a lottery for time slots.
Tom Brotherton moved to authorize the extension of the time for performance of TCI's
obligation under its current franchise to provide, maintain, and operate a public access studio
(as extended on August 3, 1997, by separate agreement) to September 1, 1999, in order to
investigate implementation of a Community Access Facility in partnership with a local
educational institution, upon terms acceptable to the City. The motion was seconded by Rico
Yingling and carried 3-0.
The meeting was adjourned at 4:30PM.
