The City Clerk has given the proper legal notifi-
cation to the property owners. Public Works
Director Wickstrom described the project as install-
ation of sanitary sewers on 38th Avenue South from
S. 253rd to the S. 251st block. He pointed out
that the projct was estimated to cost $113, 000 ,
but an error was discovered and creation of the
LID was delayed to allow property owners to consider
the new dollar amount. $1600 in City funds will
be used for design expense and $1600 in right of
way credit has resulted in a total of $115 , 400 to
be assessed to those in the district benefitted
by the sewer project. Wickstrom described the
methods of assesment and stated that the payments
are spread over a ten year period. No applications
for financial assistance were filed during the
required time frame at the time of the formation
of this LID. Letters from Don Knapp and Norman
Campbell were distributed with the packet and
have been filed for the record. Wickstrom noted
that Campbell (Assessment No. 10 ) was in the pro-
cess of selling his property to Seattle and felt
that the assessment should be paid by the pur-
chaser of the property. Wickstrom noted that
this was a matter to be resolved between the seller
and the buyer. Mr. Knapp (Assessment No. 20 ) ob-
jected to being assessed for two residential lots,

LIBRARY SITE Library Site Selection. Proper legal notice has
SELECTION been given by the City Clerk for this hearing,

into the selection of a site for a new downtown
public library. The Library Board has recommended
to the City Council either of two sites in the
downtown area. One site under consideration is
the block between 3rd and 4th Avenues , south of
Titus Street. The second area under considera-
tion is the site of the Kent Cold Storage Facility
at 1st and Smith.
Mayor Kelleher declared the public hearing open.
Dr. Kenneth Johnsen, 314 S. 4th, owner of the Kent
Family Dental Center, pointed out that if the
location between 3rd and 4th Avenues is chosen,
at least eight businesses would have to be reloc-
ated. He pointed out that the Kent Cold Storage
- 6 -
April 7 , 1987
LIBRARY SITE Facility is owned by one person, who is willing
SELECTION to sell, and that that location is near the Satur-
day Market, the new Senior Center and Kaibara Park.
He urged the Council to consider these factors
when making a decision. Dr. Mark Walker, 314 S. 4th,
also spoke in opposition of building the new library
at the 4th Avenue location. Ted Strain asked
about a letter from KDA. It was acknowledged that
such a letter had been received today, distributed
and filed for the record. KDA recommends that
the facility be built at the Sea-Kent Cold Storage
site, but that further investigation for an alter-
nate downtown site be pursued. He noted that it
had been suggested that the private property in
the parking lot bounded by Harrison and Smith, between
4th and 2nd Avenues could be purchased, the park-
ing could be next to Harrison Street and the library
built in back of that parking lot. He pointed
out that at this site, only the bank building
would have to be torn down. He opined that this
would be less expensive than either of the other
two proposals .
Mary Wagner, 25847 186th Place, who is the director
of a social service agency, stated that reloca-
tion of the agency could result in a decline in
services. Judy Edwards, Teeter Tots Day Care
Center, noted that this is the only day care
center in the downtown area which takes children
with the help of State aid. Dr. Nick Johnson,
331 S. 3rd, noted that his practice has been in
downtown Kent for twelve years. He noted that he
owns the Milwaukee depot which has been moved to
its present site at 3rd and Saar, and that he
would not like to see this building destroyed.
He urged the Council to not choose the site between
3rd and 4th Avenues. There were no further com-
ments and WOODS MOVED to close the public hearing.
White seconded and the motion carried. McFall
suggested that the comments made tonight be
taken under advisement and discussed at an execu-
tive session and the Council concurred.

ANNEXATION East Hill Ommunity Well Annexation Area 2. This date has been
set for the public hearing on the annexation of
approximately 410 acres on the East Hill of Kent.
The City Clerk has given the proper legal notice.
Wickstrom described the area as approximately 410
acres which would square off the city limit line
at 116th Avenue S. E.
The public hearing was declared open. John Lam-
bert of 6702 34th N.W. , Seattle, stated that he
owned five acres at 11008 S.E. 256th and that
under the County zoning he could have 18 units
per acre, but under City zoning only 12 per acre
would be allowed. Janet Hansen of 25308 113th
Avenue S.E. noted that she has her own well and
asked when she could expect to be connected to
City water. Wickstrom notd that, as for developers ,
she would be required to extend the existing line
up to the property and then pay the connection
fees. He clarified that the small line in the
area is a private line, and too small to be ex-
panded. He explained the policies governing exten-
sion of lines, and noted that Ms . Hansen lives
on a private road. Cathy Kleven noted that she
owned 212 acres on S.E. 244th and was in the process
of short-platting this parcel with the County,
estimating that the process would be completed
within about six weeks. Harris noted that upon
annexation this would be handled by the City ' s
Short Plat Committee, which was a quicker process
than the County ' s. He noted that some of the
requirements might be different. He recommended
that Ms. Kleven bring in her plans and talk to
the Planning staff . Ms. Kleven noted that she had
already spent considerable money in processing
this plat.

April 7 , 1987
ANNEXATION Lou Martin of 9494 S. 248th asked for background
on the annexation and Wickstrom noted that in 1985,
as a condition of the City taking over the East
Hill Community Well, 75% of the shareholders
agreed to execute covenants to annex to the City.
He painted out that the City has committed to
upgrade the mains of the well company and that a
contract has already been executed for half of
the improvements. He pointed out that if residents
want sewers, an LID can be formed as has been
done elsewhere in the City. Upon Martin' s ques-
tion, Wickstrom noted that if sewer lines were
at the property, charges could be made even if
the residence was not connected. It was also
clarified that burning was permitted within the
City through burning permits issued by the Fire
Department. James Curran of 24318 94th Avenue S.
noted that much of the area was rural and asked
about the rules governing animals. Harris briefly
explained the zoning as it related to animals.
It was clarified for James Orr that the East Hill
Community Well did not extend beyond 116th Avenue
S. E. , and further, that there was no proposal to
annex east of the 116th Avenue S.E. boundary. He
opined that the people should have voted on the
question of annexation to the City.
Upon a question from Burt Jones, Harris and Wick-
strom noted that upon annexation an interim zon-
ing of R1 -20, 000 is imposed, which is a single
family lot of 20 , 000 sq. ft. Within six months of
annexation, a zoning classification will be recom-
mended in accordance with the Comprehensive Plan.
Hearings will be held before the City ' s Hearing
Examiner and the residents involved will be notified.
Harris noted that the Planning staff would meet
with the people to review the Comprehensive Plan
for the area, listen to the residents and then the
public hearings will be conducted.
Upon Dowell ' s question, Wickstrom estimated
the improvements to the East Hill Community Well
system at $650, 000 . Upon White ' s question, Wick-
strom noted that any utility service extended out-
side the corporate limits required Boundary Review
Board approval , and in general , annexation was
required.

ANNEXATION There were no further comments and WHITE MOVED to
close the public hearing. Woods seconded and the
motion carried. Harris suggested that action on
this matter be continued to the next muting to

Ms. Hansen contact the Public Works Department
to have her questions answered. WOODS MOVED to
to continue this matter to the April 21 meeting.
Houser seconded and the motion carried.
WEST HILL PLAN West Hill Plan Map Amendment. On February 24 ,
1987 , the Planning Commission recommended that
three tax lots on the West Hill be designated
for multifamily residential land use on the West
Hill Subarea Plan Map. The Commission ' s action
was taken pursuant to sections of Ordinance 2670
which implemented West Hill zoning in October 1986 .
The City Council had earlier zoned an area known
as the Reasey and Woodland Estates properties to
a multifamily designation. At the same time, the
City Council directed that the West Hill Compre-
hensive Plan Map be brought into conformance with
their zoning action. The recommendation of the
Planning Commission accomplishes this. WOODS
MOVED to change the West Hill Plan Map Designation
on tax lots 20 , 77 and 162 in Section 22-22-4 to
Multi Family (MF12-24 ) Residential . White
seconded and the motion carried.

Phillips has petitioned for vacation of a portion
of an alley located at 206 S. Naden, and proper
legal notice has been given by the City Clerk for
a public hearing for this date. The Planning
Department has recommended that the request be
granted with the condition that the City be com-
pensated at one-half the value of the area to
be vacated. The public hearing was opened by
Mayor Kelleher. There were no comments and WHITE
MOVED to close the public hearing. Woods seconded
and the motion carried. John Phillips stated that
it appeared that the legal description would

rather than competing for funds ) . The estimated
amount for 1988 pass-through funds will be approx-
imately the same amount as we received in 1987.
