STREETS BIDS - LID 288/East Valley Highway Street Improve- ment (S. 212th - S. 192nd) LID 293 - East Valley Highway Sewer & Water (S. 212th - S. 192nd) BIDS were received on May 25, 1979 on the above referenced projects as follows: Schedule I Alternate & Schedules II - VI Scarsella Bros. , Inc. $2, 396,607.50 City Transfer $2, 400, 841. 84 Tri-State Construction $2 ,410 , 718 .49 (Engineer' s estimate - $2 ,099, 388.42) Ulett noted that the bids were all close and were approximately 13% over the engineer' s estimate. He recommended that the best bid of Scarsella Brothers be accepted, since it was not felt that lower bids would be received on rebid, and further that it was imperative that the project go to con- tract by July 8 or 9 or a UAB grant of almost $2 ,000 ,000 would be in jeopardy. He noted that 2 - June 4 , 1979 STREETS funding was available with an approximate $118,000 available in contingency funds, plus a possibility of an increase of $50,000 UAB funds and a probable $55,800 railroad grant. CAREY MOVED to accept the best bid of Scarsella Brothers in the amount of $2 ,396, 607. 50 for Schedule I Alternate, and Schedules II - VI, subject to UAB approval, McCaughan seconded. Motion carried. LID 292 - Street Improvements . A public hear- ing is scheduled for this meeting to consider the formation of LID 292 to widen and improve 104th S.E. from S .E. 242nd to S.E. 235th and to improve S.E. 240th Street from 104th Avenue S .E. to 108th Avenue S.E. The project includes storm drainage, street lighting, street trees, placing of telephone and power distribution systems underground, and a traffic signal rebuild. Funding includes the proposed LID, State Depart- ment of Transportation Funds, .King County Funds, and City of Kent funds. A 30-day protest period begins after the passage and publication of an ordinance creating the district and if land owners subject to 60% or more of the total assessment give written protest the LID project is restrained. The public hearing was opened by the Mayor. Richard Gradwohl questioned the area of S.E. 236th Street and referred to a sewer line which had recently been installed in the area and the resulting condition of the street. It was determined that S.E. 236th was not part of the LID project but the contractor who put in the sewer line was covered by a bond and steps would be taken to make the contractor cor- rect the situation. He'also referred to a deten- tion basin which had been constructed in connection with his development but which was now useless as a result of damage done to the system during the sewer construction. There were no further comments and ELLIOTT MOVED that the hearing be closed, McCaughan seconded. Motion carried. CAREY MOVED that the City Attorney be directed to prepare an ordinance creating LID 292 , B. Johnson seconded. Motion carried. _ 3 _ June 4 , 1979 STREETS Kent Valley Festival.

CAREY MOVED that the street closure requested be granted, B. Johnson seconded. Motion carried. ADDRESS Notice of Change of Address - Green Valley CHANGES Heights. J. K. Miller, 24704 43rd Avenue S . , referred to a letter sent by the Kent Building Department advising some of the residents on 42nd and 43rd Avenue S. that their addresses would be changed. He had a suggestion to simplify the matter and was invited to discuss the matter with City Administrator Cushing. STREET Portion of W. Saar Street (Ribail request) . On VACATION May 7, 1979 the City Council adopted Resolution No. 869 which set the date for a City Council public hearing on this proposed street vacation for this date. The Planning Department has re- ceived input from all interested City depart- ments and from the following agencies: Puget Sound Power & Light and the Washington Natural Gas Company. After a review of the comments from these agencies and departments, the Plan- ning Department recommends that the request to vacate that portion of W. Saar Street as set forth in Resolution 869 not be approved as re- quested for the following reasons: 1) The Kent Police Department feels that the vacation would hinder emergency vehicle response to the area. 2) The Kent Fire Department points out that there is a City hydrant in this portion of Saar Street and the street allows for good access to the Milwaukee - Union Paci- fic Railroads, and therefore, the street vacation should not be allowed. 4 - June 4, 1979 STREET The public hearing was opened by the Mayor. VACATION George Billings, President of Northwest Dry- wall Supply, located at 725 W. Saar, and re- presenting Mr. Ribail, pointed out that the street vacation would allow more room in front of the business where trucks are loaded and un- loaded. He noted that the requested vacation is for approximately 132� feet and that the street deadends against a spur line of the Milwaukee Railroad. He noted that the street is in poor condition and has not been maintained by the City and that he proposed to pave it if it is vacated. Billings stated he could not understand the objections by the Police Depart- ment and had assured the Fire Chief that there would be no fence constructed, so access to the fire hydrant would be assured. Billings noted for McCaughan that his company does own the ad- joining property and also noted that other people use the street as a turn-around area. He suggested that possibly his company could enter into an agreement with the City formally stating that they would not fence the area. Harris clarified for B. Johnson that the Engi- neering Department' s main concerns were that utility easements be granted in the area if the street were to be vacated and that since the recommendation was for denial the Engineering Department requirements were not included in the staff report. J. Johnson stated that he felt the matter should be referred to the workshop session for further discussion and the possibility of entering into the type of agreement as pro- posed by Billings. Mr. Billings noted further that the State was the adjoining property owner and had approved the vacation request. B. JOHNSON MOVED to continue the hearing to June 18 and refer the matter to the June 11 workshop for further discussion, Masters seconded. Motion carried. SPECIAL USE On May 22, 1979 the Planning Commission held a COMBINING public hearing on an application filed by Kent DISTRICT Highlands, Inc. for a Special Use Combining Dis- trict to continue a grading & filling operation Kent Highlands, which was initiated in 1971 on a 400-acre site Inc. in an area zoned RA, CC and MR-M. The property - 5 June 4, 1979 SPECIAL USE is located west of Frager Road, generally des- COMBINING cribed as the hillside between Military Road DISTRICT S. and Frager Road, north of the Kent Des Moines Road. The Planning Commission has recommended Kent Highlands, approval of the application subject to the follow- Inc. ing nine conditions: 1. Submit detail plans denoting final contours, including therewith the respective necessary cross-sections to the Engineering Department for review and approval. 2. Submit detailed erosion control plan to Engineering Department for review and approval. 3. On an annual basis, submit updated topo- graphical map prepared by a licensed pro- fessional civil engineer or land surveyor to Engineering Department for review. 4. This permit be reviewed annually by the Planning Commission for compliance with the designated conditions thereof. 5. The requirements and/or conditions of this permit shall be subject to change or addi- tions as deemed necessary by the Planning Commission at the annual review sessions. 6 . An erosion control and restoration bond shall be filed with the City on a form approved by the City, and in the amount based on $1000 per acre for that portion of the total property involved in the re- contouring operation. 7 . The final contouring shall include provisions for an east-west street from' Military Road to Frager Road. Said provisions shall pro- vide for a 60 foot wide level section, all of which to be on original ground with cut and fill slopes not to exceed a ratio of 2 horizontal to one vertical, and a profile grade not to exceed 15% . 6 - June 4, 1979 SPECIAL USE 8. Where the applicants property abuts Frager COMBINING Road, deed to the City 30 ' of right-of-way DISTRICT as measured from the center line of the existing pavement for the entire length of Kent Highlands, frontage thereon. Where the applicant' s Inc. ownership is contiguous on both sides of Frager .Road, deed to the City a total of 60 feet of right-of-way as centered on and measured from the centerline of the exist- ing pavement. 9 . Conditions 1, 2 , 6, 7, and 8 shall be com- plied with prior to starting any contouring work under this permit. Planning Director Harris described the area and noted that the final EIS, including letters from various agencies, and the Planning Depart- ments comments thereon, has been filed as a part of the record. The public hearing was opened by Mayor Hogan. James Curran, attorney for Kent Highlands, Inc. , gave the history of the operation. It was clarified that the City of Seattle has leased a portion of Kent Highlands property and is using same for a sanitary land- fill. The landfill operation is adjacent to the property under consideration now for con- tinuation of the Special Use permit. The permit, issued June 8, 1971, has allowed cover material to be used in the landfill operation, without transporting it over public roads, and the permit expires on June 8 , 1979 . Curran stated that the ponds were adequate to control the water runoff problem. He referred to Condition No. 9, stating that his client had already complied with (1) , (2) , and (6) . He stated further that contouring work was already underway, and that it was understood with the City Engineer that final contouring will be accomplished when the removal project is com- pleted (7) . Curran stated that it was his under- standing with Wickstrom that final deeding could occur at the first annual review (8) . He noted further that the City wanted to be sure that a 60 ' right of way be left along the river but that 7 - June 4 , 1979 SPECIAL USE the City might not want a right of way that wide COMBINING if a more direct route, north and south was pro- DISTRICT vided by Kent Highlands. Lloyd Ehrdahl, owner of adjacent property declared that the canyon Kent Highlands, has already been filled to capacity and objected Inc. to the extension of the permit. Harold Euteneier stated that a sprinkler truck for controlling dust in the area was on site but was not being used. He noted further that the agreement between Kent Highlands and the City of Seattle provided that 1 ' of cover be placed over the refuse daily, but that it was evident that this has not been done. He objected to various infractions of the agree- ment and noted that the city should have a person assigned to monitoring the operation of this pro- ject. He suggested that the city refuse to ex- tend the permit until assured compliance with the agreement. Frank Lee asked if water from the site eventually discharged into the river. Hugh Goldsmith, engineer for Kent Highlands, stated that the City of Seattle has developed a system for draining the surface water, including leachate pumping under the river and into the sewer. The _ City Clerk introduced a petition filed this even- ing, containing 138 signatures asking that the permit not be renewed thus causing the closure of the sanitary landfill and ending the offensive odor in the area. CAREY MOVED for the petition to be filed as part of the record, B. Johnson seconded. Motion carried. B. Johnson noted that an article in the Federal Way News referring to a fire in the MIDWAY LAND- FILL quoted Fairbanks, Director of Seattle' s Solid Waste Program as stating that it is not known for certain what type of materials were dumped each day and that the material was not covered properly each night. It was determined that there have been no fires at the Kent Highlands fill site but that these conditions were true at both sites. B. Johnson noted further that there had been no offensive odor from the site for the past two weeks, pointing out that more care might have been taken in view of the fact that it was 8 _ June 4, 1979 SPECIAL USE time to renew the permit. She suggested that COMBINING renewal of the permit be withheld and the city DISTRICT meet with Seattle to insist that the conditions be enforced. McCaughan agreed, citing the con- Kent Highlands, ditions from Ordinance 1390, under which the Inc. permit was originally granted. He further note(] the lack of proper monitoring of the operation. Upon Masters ' question about monitoring, Cushing opined that this might properly fall under the jurisdiction of the Department of Public Works, and if the operation is to continue, one person should be assigned to this project and that the source of the expenses incurred thereto would have to be determined. J. Johnson opined that there was no point in denying extension of the permit but that the city should continue to work with Seattle to solve the problems of the operation. It was determined by Mayor Hogan that a .meeting was scheduled for tomorrow morning with Jerry Fair- banks. Carey suggested that the matter be con- tinued for two weeks, to allow discussion at the meeting scheduled for Tuesday and that the city insist that Seattle or Kent Highlands pay the expenses of having the project monitored. Elliott agreed with Carey noting that under these circumstances the operation would have to close between the expiration date of June 8 and the next council meeting date of June 18. It was determined that if the operation is shut down even for this short time the city would be in- convenienced as Kent' s contractor also uses this landfill site. Mirk determined that a temporary permit could be issued and that the city has demands ready for tomorrow' s meeting. He noted for Masters that the city could control what type of material would be dumped at the site. B. Johnson asked about the city' s liability and Mirk stated that our liability would have to be determined especially 'if the city monitored the operation. B. JOHNSON MOVED that the hearing be tabled to the next Council meeting on June 18 and that a temporary permit be issued to cover the operation described under CD-SU-79-1, Carey seconded. Motion carried with McCaughan voting against. 9 - ...... .... . June 4, 1979 VALLEY Amendment to the Comprehensive Plan. On May 21, FLOOR 1979 , the Council held a public hearing on the PLAN Valley Floor Plan amendment to the Kent Compre- hensive Plan and at that time continued the hear- ing to June 4 , with a work session to be held on the Plan on May 29 . The continued hearing was opened by the Mayor. A letter was presented to the Mayor and Council and a copy to the Clerk for the record by Dave Uhrich of Uplands Industries. ELLIOTT MOVED that the letter be accepted and made a part of the record, Carey seconded: Motion carried. Uhrich noted that he agreed with the purpose and scope of the Valley Floor Plan, that it complimented the Comprehensive plan; however, both plans are policy documents which will serve as a guideline for all property owners in the Valley. He noted that the Plan includes property both inside and outside the city. He raised questions over the boundaries proposed and noted that -west of the Green River theoximate plan oes not include any property north of approximately South 200th Street and noted that if the area is not to be included he believed that the City should not consider any of the area for future annexation; if the area will be considered for future expansion by the City, it should be addressed in the Valley Floor Plan. He also questioned whether the City plans to extend utility service to areas across the River and suggested that if this is to be done it should be included in the Plan. Uhrich then made refe- rence to Economic Development, specifically to Policy 2 of Objection 1, Goal 1, which states: "Industrial development of MA designated land should be phased to coincide with service growth. " He questioned whether this meant the location of the utilities or referred to other items. Refer- ring to Policy 4 of Objective 3, Goal 1 , which states "Promote industrial developments with open space and sidewalks, " and noted they were assuming the term "open space" which has several definitions in the appendix to the Plan, referred to the area specifically defined as "areas of man-made features --streets, highways, canals , open yards, parking lots, trails, alleys, landscaped area, parks and 10 - June 4 , 1979 VALLEY recreational areas without structures, vacant FLOOR lots. " He questioned whether the phrase meant PLAN more than that referred to above. He also made reference to Objective 1, Goal 4 , which states "Provide for planned residential development between industrial areas and the Green River. and Policy 1, Objective 1, Goal 4 which states "Encourage low density residential uses along the Green River. He questioned the location of the area referred to, and whether it meant the area located south of S. 228th Street. Referring to the Circulation Element of the Plan, he noted that Policy 2 of Objective 2, Goal 1, states "Encourage designation and/or dedication of lands along the Green River as a green belt and passive recreation corridor. " He stated that it was felt that this was an essential policy for the Valley Floor and should be more fully defined in the formal plan. He suggested that such a policy would best be served while adhering to Objective 2, Goal 1, of the "Water- ways Element" which states "Develop a land ac- quisition program to preserve open space along the Green River. and discourage non-recreational development of waterways and natural wetlands. He suggested that there were several different types of wetlands and some were not good or suited for recreation purposes. He asked that these items be more fully clarified. Bob DeBoer addressed the Council and noted that he objected to the way his property would be zoned if the Valley Floor Plan were adopted as shown on the map. Curran referred to the fact that the Plan included the hillsides of the City, and also concurred that the Plan now does elimi- nate Mr. DeBoer's present zoning. He suggested that the plan was misleading to people with pro- perty on the West Hill. Harris suggested that the Valley Floor Plan was intended to go part way up the West Hill and north to Tukwila and that there could be an June 4 , 1979 VALLEY error on the map. He also pointed out that FLOOR this was not a zoning map. He noted that the PAIN Planning Commission had spent over a year on the Plan and that Uplands had attended many of the meetings. McCaughan noted that several persons were waiting for adoption of the plan in order to proceed with rezone requests on S. Central and questioned how long adoption of the plan would be postponed. Harris noted that he could not respond to the questions raised at this time. In response to B. Johnson' s ques- tion, Harris noted that it was the intent of the Planning Commission that the Plan should cover the area part way up the hillsides. MASTERS MOVED to continue the public hearing to June 18, Carey seconded, with further dis- cussions to be held at the June 11 workshop. Harris pointed out that letters such as that presented by Uhrich should be delivered to the staff members involved to afford an opportunity for review of such letters. Motion carried. PRELIMINARY Southcenter Corporate Park. A public meeting PLAT was held before the Council on May 21, 1979 to consider the Planning Commission' s recommenda- tion on the Southcenter Corporate Park Prelimin- ary Plat. At that time it was determined that the Council would hold its own public hearing this date to consider the plat. The public hearing was opened by the Mayor. Harris pointed out the location of the proposed plat. The 25 conditions recommended by the Planning Commission and the 11 conditions as recommended by the Shoreline Masters Program Hearing Board are con- tained in the minutes of May 21, 1979 . A letter was presented by Dave Uhrich of Upland Industries regarding the conditions to which he had raised questions at the last Council meeting. B. JOHNSON MOVED that the letter be made a part of the record, Carey seconded. Motion carried. Uhrich noted that the 25 conditions to the approval of the Preliminary Plat were set by the Planning Commission on February 27, 1979 and referred again to Conditions 6, 11, 14, 15 , and 24. Referring to - 12 - June 4 , 1979 PRELIMINARY Condition No. 6 Uhrich stated that negotiations PLAT for the intertie with Tukwila should be the City' s responsibility and the City should pay for special meters. Ulett reported that his May 30 memo recommends that Condition No. 6 be changed as follows: 6) Install water mains to meet fire flow re- quirements. A 12 inch water main shall be installed on Russell Road and S . 196th Street for the frontage of the plat. Re- imburse Kent for providing an intertie with the City of Tukwila water system. " Ulett noted that there would be a water meter involved. In response to B. Johnson' s question, he stated that negotiations were already com- plete with the City of Tukwila and an agreement signed by them should be received by the City on June 5. Ulett also recommended that Condition No. 2 be changed to read: "Russell Road and S . 196th Street shall be im- proved to a 44-foot curb to curb street with a 60-foot right of way width and two 10-foot utility easements, one on each side. The improvement and right of way acquisition can be accomplished through the LID process. " Ulett pointed out that Condition No. 11 could be eliminated as the revised Condition No. 2 covered the referenced right of way. Uhrich referred to Condition No. 14, which states that the City will be granted a strip of land con- sisting of the dike and an area 10 feet in width on the land site of the dike. He noted that as early as July of 1978 Uplands had offered to donate property to the City consisting of a strip contain- ing approximately 9 . 2 acres. He noted that Uplands preferred to donate the property as this would re- sult in a tax break, instead of giving it to the City as a condition for plat approval. It was determined by Mayor Hogan that a letter was on file from Uplands stating that they would in fact donate the property for park purposes. 13 June 4, 1979 PRELIMINARY Harris has recommended in his June 4 memo that PLAT Conditions 15 .and 17 be consolidated to read: "An additional 15 foot wide landscape buffer strip will be provided by the applicant adjacent to the 10 foot strip, and this landscape strip will be landscaped by the subdivider with trees or similar vegetation. The type of landscaping, the height and the distance between plantings is to be certified by a landscape architect and is to be approved by the Planning Department. The landscaping must be planted at one time, prior to the issuance of a building permit for any lot within the subdivision. " Harris clarified that the major objective of the condition was to insure that the landscaping along the river would be done at one time in order to preserve uniformity in growth and pro- vide the buffer strip before development took place. Uhrich referred to Condition No. 24 and the sur- face detention system, noting that Uplands fully intends to comply with the City' s Surface Water and Drainage Code and that the King County Department of Hydraulics had indicated that the P-2 channel would be completed in the near future. He suggested that each lot. should have a detention system designed for it and when developed, the developer could then come to the City with these plans for approval. Uhrich introduced Brent Cummings, a civil engineer, who has been conducting studies of the drainage sys- tem for the park. He distributed copies of sketches to the Council and gave an explanation of his plans . Masters questioned where the water would go if it would not go into pipes or the system and Cummings noted that the water would lie in the parking area until absorbed into the system--probably 40 to 45 minutes. In response to Elliott' s questions regarding a 20-year storm, Cummings noted that the system could be calcu- lated to any requirements and that it would be 14 - June 4 , 1979 PRELIMINARY up to the individual developer to size the pipes PLAT according to the lot size. Ulett clarified that the ordinance refers to a 10 year storm. Uhrich pointed out that if the completion of the channel was delayed, the pipes could be oversized but at great expense. Uhrich noted for Mayor Hogan that their drainage studies had not been , completed. Uhrich also noted for Cary that the developer would be required to pay the maintenance costs for the retention system. Masters stated that she would like to see the proposal clarified for the staff and Council be- fore official approval of the plat and suggested that this item be discussed at the next workshop. In response to Mirk' s question as to when Upland' s drainage studies would be completed, Uhrich noted that they would abide by the results of the drain- age studies underway by the City. Mirk noted that a possible alternative would be to enter into the same kind of agreement for this plat that they plan for their rezone--to share in the cost of the drainage study and adhere to the recommendation for the area. Uhrich noted that this would mean a six month delay and that he would like to come to the work session to dis- cuss the drainage system more thoroughly, par- ticularly with regard to what would occur should the studies show that the P-2 channel construction would be delayed or could not accept additional drainage. Mayor Hogan questioned who was going to fund the P-2 channel and noted that it was her understand- ing that lcoal governments would be picking up the funding. Cummings noted that he had talked with SCS who stated that the EIS was being pre- pared and that they were hopeful of obtaining funds within the next year. Mayor Hogan noted that she would be attending a Basin Executive Committee meeting on Tuesday and would make fur- ther inquiries. Harris noted that what Cummings was discussing was the outlet channel from the Black River. Pump Plant, and that the other channels are still 3 to 5 years in the future. MASTERS MOVED to table the matter to the June 18 meeting, and to discuss it further at the work session, B. Johnson seconded. Motion carried. 15 - June 4, 1979 ART (CONSENT CALENDAR ITEM 5E) COMMISSION Appointment. APPROVAL of Mayor Hogan' s appoint- ment of Maureen Curran to fill the unexpired term of Sally Couch on the Arts Commission. COUNCIL Public Works Committee. It was noted that the Public Works Committee would meet on Wednesday morning at 8 :00 a.m. It was also pointed out that Bill Elliott was in attendance at the last meeting. Public Safety Committee. Masters noted that the Public Safety Committee would meet at 8 :00 a.m._ on Tuesday, June 5. Administrative Reports. Cushing noted that 7 proposals were received on the Transportation Plan, 13 on the Surface Water study, and 13 on the Green River Corridor study. He also deter- mined for McCaughan that the studies would be reviewed within a week and that after the pro- posals are narrowed down to three firms for each, interviews will be held., and presentations will be made.
