REZONE Arrow Development - The Lakes Rezone (RZ-79-14) .
Referring to Ordinance No. 2307 modifying the Master
Plan Conditions for the Lakes Rezone, previously
approved under Ordinance No. 2215, Mayor Hogan
noted that she had vetoed the ordinance and that
her veto message would be brought back to the
Council on September 8, 1981.
Green River Partnership Rezone (RZ-80-2) . At the
June 1, 1981 meeting the Council considered the
recommendation of the Hearing Examiner to approve
this rezone with nine conditions . The recommendation
was approved on a 4-3 vote. Receipt of a letter from
Gordy Guinn, the applicant, was noted at the August 3
Council meeting and the matter was discussed at the
August 10 workshop. In accordance with the action
taken at the June 1, 1981 Council meeting, MOONEY
MOVED to instruct the City Attorney to draft the
ordinance approving the rezone with the nine condi-
tions previously discussed, plus an additional con-
dition, No. 10, providing that no building permits
shall be issued by the city until the three lanes
of construction of the Kent Des Moines Road have
been started. Masters seconded. It was clarified
for B. Johnson that this would include three lanes
from the West Valley Highway, including the golf
course left turn lanes, as specified by the Public
Works Department. McCaughan questioned denying the
rezone until the road has been put through. It
was determined that this had never been done in the
past although the matter had been discussed. McCaughan
also referred to recent approval of The Lakes property
rezone where additional traffic would be generated.
Wickstrom noted that verbal notification had been
received that FAUS funding was approved and that
money would be available for the three lane facility

August 17, 1981
REZONE and that the first phase of the project was scheduled _
to go out for bid in September. Bailey commented
that he was not comfortable with the Arrow (Lakes)
rezone either. Hamilton questioned whether the
Counc 1 would require that all conditions for the
Green River Partnership Rezone would have to be
satisfied before the ordinance was recorded. The
Mayor noted that the ordinance would be presented
to the Council September 8 for approval and added
that she would probably veto the ordinance. There
was no further discussion and the motion carried.
STREETS SR 516. Mayor Hogan referred to a letter from
Captain Peter Rots of the U. S. Coast Guard regard-
ing the Federal Environmental Impact Statement which
must be prepared before the necessary permits can
be granted for the Kent Des Moines Road bridge.
Captain Rots advises that funds for such an EIS
might be available in February 1982. McCAUGHAN
MOVED to make the letter a part of the record,
Bailey seconded. Motion carried. Hamilton suggested
that if the Federal Government did not have the
necessary funds to prepare the EIS, that the require-
ment should be dropped.
PLANNING (CONSENT CALENDAR ITEM 5D)

the appointment of Byron Baker to the Planning Com-
mission to fill the unexpired term of Harry Williams
until January, 1984.

HOUSING & Proposed Joint King County/Kent 1982 Housing &
COMMUNITY Community Development Project for Lower Part of
DEVELOPMENT Mill Creek Canyon. Approval is requested to update
the existing Mill Creek Park Plan and to construct/
install passive recreational amenities in the lower
part of the Mill Creek Canyon. This will be a pro-
ject sponsored jointly by the City of Kent and King
County. The joint project is budgeted at $110,150
of which $100,150 is from Housing & Community Develop-
ment funds and $10, 000 from the Parks Department.
The Council reviewed the joint project proposal at
the August 10, 1981 workshop.
The public hearing was opened by Mayor Hogan. It
was noted that letters supporting the project had
been received from various King County agencies.
There were no comments and B. JOHNSON MOVED that
the hearing be closed, J. Johnson seconded. Motion
carried.
MASTERS MOVED that the request be denied, McCaughan
seconded. Masters commented that it was her under-
standing that' the Senior Center needed a new roof,
that the food banks were without food, and that
street and sidewalk improvements were needed in
the city and that she considered these more worthy
projects than the proposed project. Bailey questioned
whether any other projects were considered before
this project was proposed. Harris noted that the
projects referred to by Masters would fall more to
the "population" and "needs" funding. He also
pointed out that since the proposed area will be
one used by both County and City residents it was
appropriate to seek joint funding. He noted that
no one had proposed the food bank project. McCaughan
also agreed that there were more important areas
where the money could be used, including improving
the Senior Center. He also noted that no response
had been received from the Senior Center as to what
needed to be done and that the City's attention
should be directed to that project. Bailey noted
that the Parks Committee had addressed the improve-
ment of the Senior Center several times and that
plans were underway. In response to questions,
Harris noted that the request for the joint funds
was due now but that the "needs" and "population"
projects would come up later and would be approxi-
_. - 5 -

HOUSING & mately $100, 000. He noted that the Council would
COMMUNITY be able to make their wishes known as to how these
DEVELOPMENT funds would be expended. B. Johnson contended that
the matter had been reviewed at budget time and that
other proposed projects could be considered later
as "needs" and "population" funding. She suggested
that the project proposed tonight was one which the
seniors could enjoy. Mayor Hogan pointed out that
Kent would be competing with other agencies for
this funding and that there was no guarantee that
the money would be received. Harris further deter-
mined for Masters that the proposed park would be
available for low and moderate income families within
accessible distance as well as senior citizens and
all others in the Valley area.
Mooney questioned whether the structure presently
being constructed had the authority and approval
of HUD. He stated that the original grant of
HUD for the purchase of the property required that
if anything other than open space was to be on this
property, HUD approval would be required. Barney
Wilson agreed that Mooney was correct and stated that
HUD did not consider this type of development as
taking away open space, that this was the creation
of a passive park. Mooney asked if the earthwork
structure had the approval of HUD. Wilson stated
there had been some concern about the retention
basin and that IAC which controls the HUD funding
had approved the retention basin as long as it was
being done in a park—like manner and was available
to the public.
There was no further discussion and the MOTION FAILED,
with Masters, McCaughan and Mooney voting in favor
and B. Johnson, J. Johnson, Bailey, and Hamilton
voting against. HAMILTON MOVED to approve the
request, B. Johnson seconded. The MOTION CARRIED
with Mooney, Masters and McCaughan voting against.
BUSINESS Revocation of Business License for Roadside Inn
LICENSE Tavern. A public hearing has been scheduled for
Eh-Ts—meeting to consider the revocation of the
Roadside Inn Tavern business license. The following
communications have been received and have been
filed for the record:
6 -
August 17, 1981
BUSINESS 1) Petitions from residents of Bonel Mobile Manor,
LICENSE filed on June 23, 1981 and on July 6, 1981, re-
questing that the Roadside Inn Tavern license
be revoked and that the tavern be permanently
closed. The petitions contain 108 signatures.
2) Letter from Mil Pennington, manager of Bonel,
received June 23, 1981.
3) Letter from Kent Alliance Church, dated July 21,
1981.
Barbara Heavey, Assistant City Attorney, noted that
a letter had been delivered today from Victor Hoff,
attorney for Pat Chase, owner of the Roadside Inn
Tavern, expressing concerns over the hearing. She
referred to Mr. Hoff' s concern over not receiving
a copy of the written complaint and that therefore
his client was not aware of the exact nature of the
complaints against the business. Heavey noted that
proper notice of the hearing had been sent by the
City Clerk to Pat Chase, the licensee, in- accord-
ance with Ordinance 1919 and that although the
ordinance did not require that a copy of the com-
plaint be forwarded to the licensee, she suggested
that it would be best for the Council to set the
hearing over to correct the procedural error and
that the owner be furnished with a copy of the
written complaint. B. JOHNSON MOVED that the
public hearing to consider the revocation of the
Roadside Inn Tavern business license be set over
to August 31, 1981 at 7: 00 p.m. It was clarified ,
that this would be a special meeting of the Council
at which time this public hearing will be held.
Bailey seconded. Motion carried.
In response to questions from McCaughan, Heavey
noted that depending upon the action taken by the
State Liquor Control Board, the Roadside Inn Tavern
could reopen prior to the Council' s public hearing
on August 31, 1981.
Poop Deck Tavern. Receipt was noted of a letter
from Mr. and Mrs. Dowell protesting the request of
a license to allow male strippers at the Poop Deck
Tavern. The letter also complained of actions ob-
served outside the tavern at various times and asked
7 -
August 17, 1981
BUSINESS that Kent take action to get rid of such establish-
LICENSE ments. MOONEY MOVED that the letter be made a
part of the record, Masters seconded. Motion
carried.
STREET Vacation of a' Portion of 101st Avenue S.E. in the
VACATION Massey Short Plat. On July 20, 1981 the Council
adopted Resolution No. 932 setting a public hearing
for this date on the application of B & R Development
for the above described street vacation. A staff
report recommending that the application be denied
has been distributed and filed. The public hearing
was opened by the Mayor. Mr. Ray Schutrop, land
surveyor for B & R Development, spoke in favor of
the vacation, as did Dan Moorman, property owner
to the south. Miles Drake noted that since the plan
to use 101st Avenue S.E. for a loop road has been
abandoned, that it should be vacated and put back
on the tax rolls. Referring to the fact that Crow
Road was supposed to be designated as a scenic
road, Drake pointed out that it was customary that
if access was denied, alternate access should be
provided and that this would be expensive. Drake
suggested that if the lots in the Kirkham Short Plat
are denied access to the Crow Road, they should not
be assessed for improving it through the LID. Mel
Kleweno, representing Moorman & Clemens, suggested
that there were no sound reasons why the vacation
should be denied. He noted that the Kirkham Short
Plat Appeal is scheduled for public hearing for this
meeting also and objected to the fact that the
appeal was considered to be related to this hearing
on the street vacation when in fact they were two
separate items. He suggested that if the Council
were hearing only the street vacation tonight that
it would be granted, and that the only purpose the
City could have in denying the application would be
to deny the applicants access to therCrow Road. He
stated that the proposed vacation should be considered
on its own merits, without linking this matter to
the Kirkham Short Plat appeal.
Ruth Ruppert noted that she was one of the persons
requesting vacation of the street and was administra-
tor for the owners of Lots 1 and 2 of the Massey
Short Plat who also favor the vacation. She pointed
out that their intent was to develop a 1. 7 acre
8 -
August 17, 1981
STREET property for 33 units of MRM housing and that the
VACATION property would have roads on three sides if the
street were vacated and with the setbacks it
would only be possible to build 20 units rather
than 33 units . She noted that they
were participating in LID 300 for the improvement
of Crow Road and also noted that there was no
longer going to be a Ring Road. She spoke in
favor of access to the Crow Road for the adjacent
Kirkham Short Plat.
Harris noted that the Planning Department staff
report included comments from all divisions of the
Public Works Department plus the Fire Department,
Washington Natural Gas and Pacific Northwest Bell.
Based on this information, the Planning Department
recommended that the vacation be denied for the
following reasons:
Said 101st Avenue extension will make the
signalized intersection of 101st Avenue and
256th Street directly accessible to that pro-
perty lying south of the Massey Short Plat.
Said property, which encompasses approximately
16. 66 acres, is presently zoned Office (13. 21
acres) and Community Commercial (3. 45 acres) .
The total potential daily trip generation there-
from, based on existing zoning, is 5, 053 ADT.
With no direct connection to the 101st Avenue
and 256th Street signalized intersection, the
104th Avenue and S. 256th Street signalized
intersection will take the brunt of this im-
pact. Said intersection is already at capacity
during peak traffic periods. This impact could
be partly mitigated via the use of the 101st
Avenue and 256th Street intersection.
In response to questions from McCaughan,• Wickstrom
noted that there was a possibility that there would
be no left turns on Crow Road unless Crow Road and
Canyon Drive were signalized. Masters questioned
the advisability of adding more traffic to the
area in front of the high school and Wickstrom
responded that .the signal at 104th and 256th was
operating at peak capacity and that this would
distribute the load over other available intersections.

August 17, 1981
STREET Using the map, Ruth Ruppert suggested routes which �J
VACATION could be used. Upon Masters ' question, Wickstrom
noted that some right-of-way had been deeded through
the Massey Short Plat. There were no further com-
ments and the public hearing was closed.
McCaughan expressed the opinion that the Kirkham
Short Plat and the street vacation were tied together
and that therefore it was necessary to determine
access to the Kirkham Short Plat before a decision
was made on the vacation. Bailey concurred. McCAUGHAN
MOVED to defer action on a decision regarding the
street vacation temporarily, Mooney seconded. Motion
carried.
After the public hearing was held on the Kirkham
Short Plat Appeal and that matter referred back to
the Short Plat Committee, HAMILTON MOVED to remove
the Street Vacation matter from the table, McCaughan
seconded. Motion carried. McCAUGHAN MOVED to defer
action on the street vacation until a decision was
made on the Kirkham Short Plat, B. Johnson seconded.
Hamilton noted that if the Council was going to
reconsider this item, staff should provide better
figures as to the traffic count in the area. He
referred to the figure of approximately 5, 000 trips v
per day from a 16 acre parcel through 101st S.E.
and pointed out that all three lots of the Massey
Short Plat have access to 260th or 104th or Crow Road
so the only traffic that would be forced to go
through the 256th intersection would be from the 3.49
acres in the Kirkham Short Plat. Ruppert asked for
clarification as to what the Short Plat Committee
would consider and whether she would be advised of
the meeting. Harris stated that he would notify
her and that the Short Plat Committee would advise
the Council of their decision on the Kirkham Short
Plat and that the matter would not come before the
Council unless the decision of the Committee was
again appealed. The motion carried, with Hamilton
voting nay.
KIRKHAM On June 2, 1981 Mel Kleweno, representing Robert
SHORT PLAT Clements and Daniel Moorman, filed an appeal to
APPEAL certain conditions of approval for this short plat.
(SP-81-7) The public hearing commenced on June 15 and was con-
tinued to August 3 and then continued to this date
10 -
August 17, 1981
KIRKHAM because of its relationship to the hearing on the
SHORT PLAT vacation of a portion of 101st Avenue S.E.
APPEAL
(SP-81-7) Additional material filed by Mr. Kleweno on August
6, has been included in the agenda packet.
This 4 lot short subdivision containing 16.7 acres
is bounded on the west by Crow Road, on the north
by the Massey Short Plat which was approved about
two years ago, on the east by 104th Avenue S.E.
and on the south by S.E. 264th. The minutes of
the Short Subdivision Committee meeting of May 20,
1981 list the conditions of approval for this short
plat.
The public hearing was reopened by the Mayor. Hariis
noted that the Council had continued this matter
because of its relationship to the proposed street
vacation of a portion of 101st Avenue S.E. He
pointed out that the written material received on
August 6 supplied by Kleweno contained different
material than that which was presented at the June
15 hearing. Kleweno pointed out that his clients
had purchased the property in 1964 and that the
-. only issue was to divide the property into four lots,
that development or zoning had nothing to do with
short platting. He pointed out that one of thepro-
posed lots is zoned "community commerical" and the
other three are zoned "office" . Kleweno noted that
the property currently has paved roads on three
sides, sewer service on two sides and water service.
He cited the issues of appeal as to whether the city
had the right to require the no-protest LID covenants
and whether the city had the right to deny access
to the Crow Road.
Kleweno stated that the applicant recognized that
access from Crow Road should be limited and agreed
that no access should be allowed within 250 feet
of the SW corner of Lot 4 and that there should be
only one access from Crow Road to Lot 2 and one
access to Lot 3. He pointed out that all the other
property owners had access to Crow Road and that
this is the first time the city has denied access.
He showed a chart illustrating the existing accesses.
- 11 -
August 17, 1981
KIRKHAM Kleweno pointed out that the owners had agreed to
SHORT PLAT deed property as requested by the city for a right-
APPEAL of-way at S.E. 260th and 104th S.E. , but that the
(SP-81-7) city is asking, in addition, that no-protest LID
covenants also be signed for improvements to 104th
S .E. and to S.E. 264th. He stated that such cove-
nants would force the owners to sell the property.
Mayor Hogan pointed out that in all the covenants
which have been required, the city had never forced
through an LID. Kleweno opined that covenants should
be required at the time of development, not at the
point of short platting. He stated that Ordinance
No. 2224 , covering the LID no-protest covenants
refers to "at the time of a building permit" and
opined that this did not apply to this situation.
He questioned the city's authority to require such
a covenant and noted that the Short Subdivision
ordinance is silent on the subject. Kleweno noted
that State Statute clearly states that under LID
procedures, the property owners are clearly given
the right to protest the establishment of an LID
and further to refuse to pay for the improvements.
Moorman noted that the improvement to 104th would
be very expensive. Kleweno urged the Council to
consider that the applicants were well within the
city ordinances in asking that this property be
short-platted into four lots.
Regarding the Crow Road, Kleweno stated that the
city' s Comprehensive Code states that Crow Road
should be designated as a scenic roadway and that
the city has not defined "scenic roadway" or specified
what would be allowed on such a roadway.
Miles Drake noted that owners have lost their pro-
perty due to high LID assessments. Ruth Ruppert,
representing property owners to the north, in the
Massey Short Plat spoke in support of Kleweno' s
statements, adding she was involved in the Crow
Road LID which would cost $16,000 for one side and
$85, 000 for the other. She stated that the Kirkham
16 acre tract was too large to develop and should
be subdivided into the 4 lots as requested.
Barney Wilson stated that the Crow Road is an oil
mat road and would have to be improved at the tax-
payers expense at the entrance to Mill Creek Park.
- 12 -
e
August 17, 1981
KIRKHAM Mayor Hogan asked how the accesses to Lots 2 and 3
SHORT PLAT would be protected and Kleweno stated that this
APPEAL could be made a condition of the Short Plat. In
(SP-81-7) answer to a question from the audience, Harris
stated that if access was denied the setback require-
ments should still be enforced, since as a scenic
roadway it would still be a public right-of-way.
Upon Hamilton' s question, Wickstrom noted that if
the covenants are not placed on the short plat now,
the city would not be able to require them at the
time of development, since the ordinance exempts
building permits for lots subdivided after the
effective date of the ordinance. Bailey asked if
Kleweno had stated that the owners would make the
covenants a part of the conditions of a future sale.
Kleweno said he had so stated at the June 15 meet-
ing, but that this was no longer so specified.
Wickstrom determined for Mooney that none of the
Kirkham Short Plat property is contained in any
current LID, and that if there was no access from
the Crow Road, the owner would probably be excluded
from participation in a future LID and the road
would remain as is in that area. Harris and Wickstrom
explained the provisions of Ordinance 2224 and it was
determined there were six accesses to the Crow Road
in existence now.
Upon questions from the Council, Assistant City
Attorney Heavey noted that the Council could consider
the subdivision as a whole and as long as access
was provided at some point, a specific access could
be denied, and further, that the City does have the
legal right to require the no-protest LID covenants.
She noted that if the Council determined that the
traffic generated from the plat would place a traffic
burden on the Crow Road, which it could not handle,
the city could require that access to other roads
be provided. Moorman opined that the plat would
not create a traffic burden, since they were not
developing, and at the platting stage there is no
impact on anything, and no part of the Short Plat
ordinance provides for the conditions which are
under discussion.
Masters noted that LID improvements were proposed
on three of the roads surrounding this short plat
13 -
e
August 17, 1981
KIRKHAM and that the costs of such improvements might be
SHORT PLAT confiscatory. Wickstrom noted that Ordinance 2224
APPEAL requires LID covenants for applicants for building
(SP-81-7) permits whether in a short plat or not. He pointed
out that the proposed LIDS meant that eventually
those roads would probably be improved and that LID
covenants would help support those improvements.
Kleweno noted that he had submitted a legal brief
with the August 6th packet of material citing a
Washington Supreme Court case which says that muni-
cipalities shall not abrogate without clear mandate
from the legislature, the right of property owners
to protest. McCaughan expressed concern about the
traffic problems. There were no further comments
and HAMILTON MOVED to close the public hearing.
B. Johnson seconded. Motion carried.
HAMILTON MOVED that this appeal be remanded to the
Short Plat Committee for reconsideration. Bailey
seconded. Hamilton noted that since the applicant
was unwilling to make the commitment to improve
the streets in the future, that the Committee will
have to make certain requirements a part of the
short plat approval . Bailey noted that some legal
research should be done with regard to the no-protest
LID covenants.
Harris noted that the Short Plat Committee would
reconsider the matter after Labor Day and that the
matter would not come to the Council again unless
the Committee's decision was again appealed. It
was pointed out that the only time Short Plats came
before the Council was in the case of an appeal.
It was determined that the interested parties would
be notified of the date of the Short Plat Committee
meeting. Motion carried unanimously.
COUNCIL Public Works. Mooney noted that the Public Works
COMMITTEES Committee would meet on Wednesday morning, August
19th, at 8:15 a.m. in the fourth floor conference
room and would discuss the water situation.
Parks Committee. Bailey noted that discussion had
been held at the Parks Committee meeting last week
regarding the senior citizen center long range plans.
Some recommendations were made to the consultants
for the Parks Master Plan.

August 17, 1981
COUNCIL Public Safety. B. Johnson reported that the Public
COMMITTEES Safety Committee had met prior to the Council meet-
ing to discuss with Chief Skewes the project coordin-
ator for the jail planning project. The matter will
be brought to the next workshop and a report made at
the next regular Council meeting as to the name of
the person selected and the salary proposed.
