Approval of Minutes. APPROVAL of the minutes
of the regular meeting of August 20, 1979 ,
with the following addition:
" (Consent Calendar Item 5S) Hearing Examiner
System. ADOPTION of Ordinance No. 2180 estab-
lishing the Hearing Examiner system for the
City. "
HEALTH & LID 295. This public hearing has been continued
SANITATION from the August 6 meeting and the project con-
sists of a 10-inch sanitary sewer on 104th Place
from SE 224th north to a point approximately 450'
north of SE 222nd, ending in a cul-de-sac. The
continued public hearing was opened by Mayor
Hogan. City Engineer Wickstrom noted that copies
of the August 17 letter from the Health Department
recommending that the LID be formed had been dis-
tributed to the Council and a copy has been placed
on file. Mrs. Goldsbary stated that there were
no alternatives open to them, that sewers were
necessary for this area. George Zigalla stated
that he lived 1� blocks from the Goldsbarys and
had had no problems. Larry Kirchner of the Health
Department noted that the residents of the area
should consider this as a community problem and
that those not presently affected could have the
problem in the near future. He pointed out that
some of the residents could actually be forced

HEALTH & from their homes and that the septic tanks were
SANITATION never intended to be a permanent solution to
the sewage problems. Zigalla noted that the
letter referred to 103rd and 105th Avenues but
that the problem seemed to be on 104th Place.
Bernard Gerhards stated that he lived next to
the Goldsbarys and that it appeared that the
odor problem had been resolved. The Clerk noted
receipt of a letter from Mr. Gerhards protesting
the formation of the LID and also a letter from
Mr. and Mrs. Goldsbary asking that the LID be
approved. CAREY MOVED to accept the letters
for the record, J. Johnson seconded. Motion
carried.
A resident of the area stated that he agreed
with Kirchner's statement but that the project
appeared to be very costly especially to those
who were not having a sewage problem. It was
determined that the project could be financed
over a period of years and that the area was
not inside the city limits. Kirchner noted that
space for additional drainfields was limited
and that the vacant lots had poor percolation
capabilities. Wickstrom described the area
again and upon a question from the audience,
Cushing determined that the area of a proposed
LID could be decreased without redoing the initial
paperwork. There were no further comments and
B. JOHNSON MOVED to close the hearing. Carey
seconded, motion carried. McCAUGHAN MOVED to
authorize the City Attorney to prepare the
ordinance to create the LID, Elliott seconded.
Upon Carey' s question, Wickstrom noted that if
the size of the LID was decreased, it would in-
clude between SE 224th and SE 222nd and that
there had been at least one problem area north
of 222nd. He pointed out that decreasing the
area would result in an estimated assessment of
about $8,000 per lot. Motion carried.

Utility Extension. AUTHORIZATION to prepare the
necessary documents for a late comers agreement
as requested by Henry Vanderbeck, covering the
utility extensions constructed in the vicinity
of S. 212th and the Burlington-Northern Railroad
tracks. The Engineering Department has reviewed
the request and finds the project eligible for a
late comers agreement, subject to the developer
paying all City costs for same.
(CONSENT CALENDAR ITEM 5K)
LID 288/293 - East Valley Highway Improvements S. 212th_- S. 192nd. APPROVAL of Change Order
No. 1 as requested by Scarsella Brothers and re-
commended by the Public Works Committee in the
amount of $2, 500 to provide interim security
during the relocation of the fencing.
Kent Hiahlands. Mayor Hogan noted receipt of
a telephone call from Fir. DeBoer of Kent High-
lands noting that they were hiring a person to
monitor the Kent Highlands Landfill site and
that such person would work with Seattle to see
that the terms of the agreement were being ful-
filled. She also determined for B. Johnson
that Glenn Caron of the City staff is the person
monitoring the site for the City. In response
to B. Johnson's further questions, Wickstrom
noted that complaints and/or questions about
the monitoring should be addressed to the
Engineer's Department.

Building Permit Moratorium. Mayor Hogan noted
that she had received a report of building per-
mits issued in the area through this date to
give some indication of the projected water us-
age in the immediate future. She stated that
the projected usage for residential, multi-
family, and industrial use would be an additional
1,800,000 gallons per day over the current amount.
She asked that the Council give consideration to
declaring a moratorium on the issuance of build-
ing permits until it was determined how much
water the City would be able to supply by next
summer. She suggested that by continuing to
issue building permits the City was compounding
the problem when a shortage already exists. She
suggested that no more building permits be issued
until November 1 or until the data from the
studies being made would be available with informa-
tion as to the water supply for next year. She
noted that more facts were needed on the East
Hill well, as well as on the Tukwila intertie

September 4, 1.979
WATER and their Seattle source. The Mayor noted that the
cost of water through Tukwila was almost twice
that which Kent charges, and that we would not
know until October whether the East Hill well
could be drilled and what the capacity would be.
Carey stated that he did not feel the Council
could take any action until the staff report
covering the water situation was completed, at
which time the Council would set a policy for
all utilities and for all customers. J. Johnson
agreed with the Mayor that the problems were pre-
sent now and it would not be possible to wait
much longer before some decisions were made.
He agreed with declaring the moratorium on
building permits since granting more would mean
that there would be that many more water users
in the future. Mayor Hogan suggested that per-
haps building permits could contain wording to
the effect that issuance of the permit did not
necessarily guarantee that the City would be
able to provide water service. Carey stated
that the City did not have information available
that would warrant such a statement. He suggested
that the City would most likely have 4 million
gallons additional by next summer.
McCaughan noted that in a conversation with Mayor
DeLaurenti today it had been brought to his
attention that Renton has an excess of water
which can be supplied to the City of Kent in
the interim, even though the water would have
to be pumped and pressurized and would cost the
the City additional monies. He also suggested
that the staff would have to determine how much
the cost would be and also noted that Renton had
indicated they would cooperate with the necessary
right-of-way easements to enable connection to
the Seattle water supply. Mayor Hogan noted that
Renton's 50-year contract with Seattle runs out
next year and that water would not be supplied
at the same rate. It was determined for B. Johnson
that part of the water study included a rate study,
and Cushing noted for B. Johnson that some pre-
liminary data should be -available in October.
- 5 -
September 4, 1979
WATER Cushing noted that it must be determined that
the supply in a given area is in fact not ade-
quate to serve the demand. In response to J.
Johnson's question, Ramsey of URS noted that
the water table at Kent Springs had in fact
dropped and J. Johnson suggested that the City
should be taking a close look at what is happen-
inq in that area, and also how existing customers
were going to be served.
STREETS (CONSENT CALENDAR ITEM 5L)
1979 Asphalt Paving Projects. ACCEPTANCE as
complete of the Lakeridge Asphalt Paving, Inc.
contract for the paving of S.E. 267th Street,
110th Avenue S.E. , East Valley Highway, "Old"
Reith Road, and S. 4th Avenue, and release of
the retainage after receipt of the necessary
State documents.
(CONSENT CALENDAR ITEM 5M)
S 252nd Street & Canyon Drive Street Improvement.
APPROVAL of the concept for the realignment of S.
252nd Street at Canyon Drive as discussed at the
last Council workshop. The realignment involves
an additional triangular take from the Park of
approximately 8,400 square feet, and if an LID
is formed for the improvement of the intersection
of Canyon Drive and S. 252nd Street then the pro-
perty in question would be purchased or credited
against the Park property assessment. If, for
some reason, the LID fails to materialize and the
developers of the Parkside Village Apartment com-
plex construct the realignment of S. 252nd Street
as required under their building permit then the
benefit derived to the Park property by the realign-
ment will equal the value of the land and no com-
pensation will be necessary.
RAILROAD (CONSENT CALENDAR ITEM 50)
CROSSINGS S 208th Street Railroad Crossing East of East
Valley Highway Railroad Crossing. APPROVAL of
the concept of allowing a railroad crossing of
S. 208th Street in the vicinity of approximately
800 feet east of East Valley Highway, subject to
an acceptable agreement with the City. The pro-
- 6 -

RAILROAD posed crossing as requested by the Benaroya
CROSSINGS Company was discussed at the last workshop
and the Public Works Department will pursue
an agreement with the Benaroya Company obligat-
ing them, among other things, for all costs,
present and future.

Reclassifications and Salary/Classification
Survey. Approval has been requested for certain
reclassifications, as recommended by staff.
These have been reviewed by the Finance Com-
mittee and have been discussed at the Council
workshop and it is proposed that the reclassifi-
cations become effective September 1. Approval
is also requested for a comprehensive salary
survey and job classification survey to be under-
taken by a consultant and the staff before the
end of the year at a projected cost of $14 ,000.
This has been proposed by the City Administrator
and has been considered at the Council workshop.
This item was removed from the Consent Calendar
by MASTERS who MOVED that the reclassification
portion be held until after the survey is completed.
Carey seconded. Cushing noted that these reclass-
ifications were only a small portion of those
actually requested and that only a few were based
on comparison with external market salaries. Most
of the changes were based upon employees working
out of their classification and to withhold
the increases would be asking the employee to con-
tinue working at a wage less than the actual
job description warrants. Upon Masters question,
Cushing noted further that these job descriptions
had been available at the Finance Commmittee meet-
ing when the matter was discussed. Masters sug-
gested that when the survey is completed at the
end of the year that any reclassifications approved
could be made retroactive. Cushing suggested that
rather than delay the entire list of reclassifica-
tions, the Council review those positions which
should have been changed a year ago. He noted
that funds would be set aside in the 1980 budget
to cover any reclassifications approved after the
survey was completed.
9 -
September 4, 1979
PERSONNEL Carey noted that consideration of some of the
reclassifications proposed for tonight were,
in fact, -proposed for the 1979 budget at this
time last year. The motion failed for lack of
a majority, with Elliott, Masters and McCaughan
voting in favor and Carey, J. Johnson and B.
Johnson voting against.
CAREY MOVED to approve the reclassifications and
to approve the survey, B. Johnson seconded.
Carey, B. Johnson and J. Johnson voted in favor
and Masters, Elliott and McCaughan voted against.
The motion carried when the Mayor voted in favor.
(A copy of the reclassifications as approved by
this action has been made a part of the record. )
COUNCIL Parks Committee. It was determined that the
COMMITTEES members of the Council Parks Committee would
establish a regular meeting schedule with Parks
Director Wilson.
Public Works Committee. McCaughan announced
that the Public Works Committee would meet on
Wednesday morning, September 5, at 8 :00 a.m.
Public Safety Committee. Masters noted that the
Committee would meet on Thursday morning, Septem-
ber 6, at 8:15 a.m.
APPEAL The City Clerk noted that Robert Voie has filed
CONDITIONAL an appeal regarding the August 28th Planning
USE PERMIT Commission approval of a Conditional Use Permit
for Richard Gradwohl. CAREY MOVED to accept
the letter for the record and to set a public
hearing on the appeal for September 17. B. Johnson
seconded. Motion carried.
PRELIMINARY Battisti Preliminary Plat. On August 20, 1979 ,
PLATS the Council set September 4, 1979 as the date for
the public meeting on this preliminary plat.
Planning Director Harris pointed out the location
of the proposed replat of a short subdivision at
the southwest corner of S. 218th Street and 93rd
Avenue S. and containing 1.05 acres. Harris also
noted that the Planning Commission at its meeting
10 -
i
September 4 , 1979
PRELIMINARY of July 24, 1979 recommended approval with the
PLATS following conditions:
1) Deed to the City 10 feet of property for
street purposes along and abutting S. 218th
Street for the entire street length thereon.
2) Execute and record a covenant document en-
compassing all property within this plat,
consent to the formation of a local improve-
ment district for the improvement of S. 218th
Street and/or 93rd Avenue S. with asphalt
concrete pavement, cement concrete curb and
gutter, storm drainage, cement concrete side-
walks, street lighting and underground power.
The covenant document is to be reviewed and
approved by the Engineering Department prior
to its execution and recording.
Harris noted for Mayor Hogan that nothing would be
built on the front part of the lot on S. 218th
Street because of the slope, and further noted
that sewer and water were available on S. 218th
Street. There were no further comments and
McCAUGHAN MOVED that the Battisti Preliminary
Plat be approved as recommended by the Planning
Commission, Carey seconded. Motion carried.
Foster Preliminary Plat. On August 20, 1979 the
Council set this date for the public meeting on
the Foster Preliminary Plat. Harris pointed out
the location of the 12-lot preliminary industrial
plat located east and west of 74th Avenue S. be-
tween SR 167 and the Interurban right of way,
north of S. 259th Street, containing approximately
30 acres. He further noted that the Planning
Commission had on July 24 , 1979 recommended
denial of the plat because of inadequate ingress
and egress to the plat. Harris also pointed out
that one lot would be used as a detention basin.
He also noted that the Planning Department staff
had recommended approval of the plat provided
that the following recommendations of the Engineer-
ing Department were made a part of approval:
- 11 -
September 4, 1979
PRELIMINARY 1. Drainage Plan: Construct an adequate storm
PLATS drainage system. Submit to the Engineering
Department for review and approval, a detailed
drainage plan showing how surface water will
be received, handled, and transported within
the property. The drainage system shall meet
the requirements of the City of Kent Drainage
Code. Construct interim drainage and erosion
control measures. Provide detailed plan of
same to Engineering Department review and
approval.
2. Sanitary Sewers: Construct gravity sanitary
sewer service to all lots. Submit detailed
sewer plans to the Engineering Department
for review and approval.
3. Water System: Provide City water service to
lots. Loop through the Plat with a 10" water
main tying in the existing main on W. Willis
Street to the existing main on S. 259th
Street. Submit detailed water plan to Engi-
neering Department for review and approval.
4. Street Improvement and Requirements: Improve
74th Avenue to a paving width of 36 feet with
asphalt concrete pavement, cement concrete
curb and gutter, and cement concrete sidewalk
(one side) , and street lights from 259th
Street to north limit of plat. Improve north
half of 259th Street with 18 feet of asphalt
concrete pavement as measured from the center
line of the existing pavement, concrete curb
and gutter, cement concrete sidewalk and
street lighting. Dedicate to City for street
purposes 50 foot radius at northeast corner
of 74th Avenue and S. 259:h Street. Improve
West Willis Street from 4th Avenue to 74th
Avenue with 24 feet of asphalt concrete pave-
ment as centered on the center line of the
existing pavement, 8 foot gravel shoulders
storm drainage, and upgrade railroad crossing
with flashing lights and gate arms meeting
Washington State Utilities and Transportation
Commission' s and the City of Kent's approval.
12 -
September 4, 1979
PRELIMINARY Improve 4th Avenue from SR-516 to W.
PLATS Willis Street to a paving width of 36
feet with asphalt concrete pavement,
cement curb and gutter and storm drainage.
Improve 74th Avenue from W. Willis Street
to north limit of plat with 24 feet of
asphalt concrete pavement as centered
on the centerline of the existing pavement,
8 feet gravel shoulders and storm drainage.
Street name signs shall be furnished and
installed by the City with reimbursement
by the developer. Submit detailed plans
denoting the above to Engineering Depart-
ment for review and approval.
NOTE: Street improvements could be via
a Local Improvement District. However, if
pursued, minimum improvements for all streets
would be 36 feet of asphalt concrete pave-
ment, cement concrete curb and gutter, cement
concrete sidewalk; storm drainage and possible
underground power.
Harris referred to the lack of ingress and egress
referred to by the Planning Commission in their
recommendation for denial, noting that all ingress
and egress would be from Willis Street down 4th
Avenue or on S. 259th by way of an underpass,
which is not acceptable. Wickstrom referred to
the developers I plans for access by making a
through connection to SR 516 and not using Old
Willis Street for access. He noted that the
traffic engineer was not enthused about this
method of ingress and egress because of the
heavy traffic that would be generated by the
Kent-Des Moines/SR 516 planned connection.
Wickstrom noted that this proposed plan had
been reviewed with the State who had stated
that they would allow access if the City did
not object. In response to B. Johnson's question,
it was determined that the cost of improving the
underpass would be excessive. With reference to
the Shoreline Management hearing which must be
held prior to any further Council hearing, Harris
noted that this covers any property within 200 '
of the river and also was required because it
13 -
September 4, 1979
PRELIMINARY was intended that excess storm water would be
PLATS pumped into the river after storage for seven
days. He noted that the Shoreline hearing is
scheduled for October 5. A representative of
both railroads stated that it was his under-
standing that the matter would be held in abey-
ance until some suitable action could be worked
out regarding ingress and egress. A representative
of Jones & Associates noted that it would be
necessary to find a different means of access
to the plat. He referred to negotiations with
the state to cut through the existing right-of-
way to bypass 4th Ave,mainly to eliminate traffic
past six residences in the area. He further
stated that the cost of improving the underpass
would make development prohibitive and, in fact,
would condemn the land for any industrial use.
He suggested that a decision on the plat be de-
layed and a public hearing be held so that alter-
nate plans could be brought to the Council regard-
ing access to the property. B. JOHNSON MOVED that
a public hearing be held on October 15, 1979
after the Shoreline Management Committee has
taken action on the Shoreline Management Sub-
stantial Development Permit application, McCaughan
seconded. Motion carried.
Olympic Estates_. The City Council, on August 20 ,
1979 , set this date for the public meeting on the
Olympic Estates Preliminary Plat, located on the
southwest corner of S.E. 256th Street and 116th
Avenue S.E. and containing approximately 4. 5
acres. Harris pointed out the location of the
proposed plat, noting that the area had recently
been zoned MR-G and that the plat would be developed
for duplex housing, with one duplex on each of 17
lots or a total of 34 family dwelling units.
Harris noted that the Planning Commission recom-
mended approval with the following eight conditions:

REZONES initiated and agreed that the rezones would be
processed and would be looking at the effect
of special zoning. In response to Elliott's
question as to whether it was the intention of
the motion to also include the Council action
taken on the McLaughlin rezone at the last
Council meeting, Carey determined that it was
not, since the McLaughlin rezone had not come
before the Planning Commission before the studies
were initiated, and further that the Union Pacific
Land Resources rezone had been in process for
some time prior to that. Mayor Hogan suggested
that all members of the Council carefully con-
sider the report of Kramer, Chin & Mayo regarding
land use decisions in the Valley before the
September 17 public hearing on this rezone.
