THROUGH- Larry Blanchard
SUBJECT: 2005 Asphalt Overlay Project
Agreement with Puget Sound Energy(PSE)
MOTION: Recommend authorizing the Mayor to sign an agreement with Puget Sound Energy
for including the overlay of 1241h Ave SE, SE 282"d Way and 132"d Ave SE in the City's 2005
Asphalt Overlay Project upon concurrence of the language herein by the City Attorney and
Public Works Director.
SUMMARY: The Public Works Department proposes to enter into an agreement with Puget
Sound Energy to incorporate their required surface restoration work into the City of Kent's 2005
Asphalt Overlay Project. The language of the agreement is subject to the approval of the City
Attorney and Public Works Director
BUDGET IMPACT:No Unbudgeted Fiscal/Personnel Impact.
BACKGROUND: PSE installed a gas main along 1241h Avenue SE, SE 282"d Way and 132nd
Avenue SE a distance of approximately 7,000 feet. As part of the gas main installation work,
PSE is required to restore the surface of the road by providing a full-width overlay of the
roadway. Under this agreement the restoration work will be included in the City's 2005 Asphalt
Overlay Project.
The total cost of the work to be performed by the City under this agreement is estimated to be
$352,150 50. However, PSE will reimburse the City for actual construction, engineering,
inspection and administration costs incurred by the City for PSE's portion of the work.
The combined project will be larger in scope which typically yields lower unit costs resulting in

FROM: Stan Wade
THROUGH: Larry R. Blanchard
SUB.IECT: South 228th Green River Bridge Project--Supplemental Temporary Use Agreement.
MOTION. Recommend authorizing the Public Works Director to sign a Temporary Use
Agreement for the lump sum of$1,100 to be paid to the City by the South 228th Green River
Bridge contractor, Mowat Construction, for use of City rights of way, for a project other than the
aforementioned bridge
SUMMARY: Mowat Construction is constructing a similar bridge structure in the Tacoma area
known as the SR 16, Union Ave to Jackson Ave. - HOV Project The Tacoma work site does
not have sufficient"lay-down'area for storing reinforcing steel and fabricating re-bar columns.
The Kent site provided to Mowat for the South 228th Bridge has sufficient room for this Tacoma
work in addition to the Kent work. By using the joint site, Mowat is able to take advantage of
economies of scale by having the fabrication sub-contractor fabricate both the Kent Bridge and
Tacoma project steel work at one site with the same crew and equipment Mowat Construction
will commence use of the property on or about May 18, 2005 and vacate the area on or before
August 31, 2005.
BUDGET IMPACT: The contractor shall pay to the City the lump sum of$1,100
BACKGROUND: The area in question (approx. 5000 square feet) is unimproved and is already
under the control of Mowat Construction as part of the 228th Bridge project, however, since the
specifics of their contract and insurance policy with Kent does not include the Tacoma body of
work, this agreement is necessary to protect Kent and its citizens with the necessary insurance
endorsements, indemnity agreements, to charge a reasonable fee for the additional use and
convenience by the contractor and to clarify that by allowing such use, the contractor will not be
relieved from his responsibility to compete the Kent project on time.

SUBJECT: Pacific Highway South HOV Lanes
Construction Contract Approval
Motion: Recommend granting the Mayor advanced authorization to sign the
Construction Contract for the Pacific Highway South HOV Lanes Project subject to the
lowest responsive and responsible bid being below the Engineer's Estimate and subject to
the approval of the Public Works Director and the City Attorney.
SUMMARY:
The Pacific Highway South HOV Lanes Project will be issued for bid in the near future with a
bid opening expected in mid-April. For a typical construction contract, the bids are opened and
the City Council is then requested to award the contract to the lowest responsible/responsive
bidder followed by the Mayor signing the contract. This project has a very critical time schedule
and it is the City's intention to complete the construction project by the end of this year In order
to meet the schedule, the Public Works Department requests that the Mayor be granted prior-
authorization to approve the contract, thus eliminating the requirement to seek Council approval
after the bid opening. This process would save us several weeks of valuable constriction rime.
The Mayor's approval would be contingent upon: the bid amount being below the Engineer's
Estimate, approval of the Public Works Director and approval of the City Attorney. If the bid
amount of the lowest responsible/responsive bidder is above the Engineer's Estimate. the typical
method of contract award would be utilized.
BUDGET IMPACT: No Unbudgeted Fiscal/Personnel Impact
BACKGROUND: Because this project has federal funding, approval to bid the project is
required from the Washington State Department of Transportation. This approval has taken
longer than expected and is now impacting our construction schedule and our ability to complete
the work on time. Granting the Mayor prior-authorization for contract approval will expedite the
construction,work and help us meet the scheduled completion date.

ZCA-2005-1 Zoning Code Amendment, Green River Corridor Special Interest District
Planning Manager Charlene Anderson stated that this proposal applies 35-foot height limitations only to
riverfront lots along the Green River Corridor She stated that staff also recommends that this area be
renamed Green Raver Corridor District to alter the perception that a special interest proposal exists.
j ZCA-2005-2 Zoning and Subdivision Codes and Shoreline Master Program (SMP) Amendments
Planning Manager Charlene Anderson described the proposal as various codes that need to be brought
into consistency with one another as they relate to appeals for PUD regulations, conditional use permits,
variances; changing the citation portion in the plat appeal which identifies the correct code for closed
record appeals before the City Council, appeals for special home occupation permits.
Ms. Anderson stated that the definition of substantial development needs to reflect a $5,000 limitation to
match State code and that inconsistencies with our regulatory reform section of the KCC, related to
appeals, need to be corrected.

ORDINANCE NO.
AN ORDINANCE of the City Council of the
City of Kent, Washington, amending section
15.08.260(D) of the Kent City Code, regarding the
height limitation on lots in the Green River Corridor
special interest district, (ZCA 2005-1); and to change
the name of Green River Corridor special interest
district to Green River Corridor district, thereby
amending 15 04.010 and 15.08.400(C)(11) of the Kent
City Code.
RECITALS
' A. The Green River Corridor special interest district (hereafter "Green
River Corridor district") is that area of the City 1,000 feet from the ordinary high
water line of the Green River. The purpose of the Green River Corridor district is to
protect, conserve, and manage areas generally located on both sides of the Green
River, and to ensure that urban development within the district is compatible with
the open, natural configuration of the Green River and its adjacent lands. Existing
regulations limit building height within the Green River Corridor district to 35 feet
and provide no means other than a variance to adjust that height. There are,
however, parcels of real properties located within the Green River Corridor district
1 that are separated from the Green River by privately-owned parcels that may or may
not be developed. When the intervening parcel is developed, the existing height
restriction does not further the intent of the Green River Corridor district regulations
1 Green River Corridor District-
Amend KCC
B. On April 4, 2005, the City sent the required notification under RCW
36.70A.106 to the state of Washington of the proposed amendment to the zoning
code and requested expedited review. Expedited review was received and granted on
April 20, 2005.
C. On April 25, 2005, the Land Use & Planning Board held a public j
hearing on the issues of the height regulation and changing the name of the Green
River Corridor special interest district to Green River Corridor district. At the
conclusion of the public hearing the Land Use & Planning Board forwarded a
recommendation to the Kent City Council.
D. On May 17, 2005, the City Council voted to amend section 15 08.260
of the Kent City Code to apply the 35-foot height limitation only to riverfront lots,
and change the name of the Green River Corridor special interest district to Green
River Corridor district.
NOW THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF KENT,
WASHINGTON, DOES HEREBY ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS: r

riverfront lots along the Green River Corridor. She stated that staff also recommends that this area be
renamed Green Raver Corridor Distract to alter the perception that a special interest proposal exists
ZCA-2005-2 Zoning and Subdivision Codes and Shoreline Master Program (SMP) Amendments
Planning Manager Charlene Anderson described the proposal as various codes that need to be brought
into consistency with one another as they relate to appeals for PUD regulations, conditional use permits,
variances; changing the citation portion in the plat appeal which identifies the correct code for closed
record appeals before the City Council; appeals for special home occupation permits.

match State code and that inconsistencies with our regulatory reform section of the KCC, related to
appeals, need to be corrected.

3. 2005-2010 PRINT SHOP COPIER LEASE
Information Technology Director Stan Waldrop and Multimedia Manager Dea Drake presented
the 2005-2010 Print Shop Copier Lease. Ms Drake advised that the City of Kent print
shop/copy center provides central copy services for black and white and color copies to all City
departments. The current copier lease has expired and the equipment is at end of life. This
proposal replaces three existing copiers with three digitally connected; high speed,
' printerleopters at an equivalent cost; improves speed, quality, and service and includes
advanced features for print-on-demand and variable data The improved technology will
provide greater productivity and the print-on-demand feature will allow the City to print on an
as-needed basis which will reduce waste, save time and reduce costs. Technology in the
copier/printer market has changed rapidly in the last several years. Costs have remained stable
while features and productivity have greatly improved. Copiers have advanced to a level
previously unavailable to the mid-range production print shop environment. In order to take
advantage of this changing technology and select the appropriate equipment for the City, a
request for information and quotes was distributed. Eight vendors responded representing ten
Ldifferent copier brands and numerous models. A demonstration packet was prepared which
IOperations Committee Minutes

Page: 2
had a variety of output tasks representing the type and variety of work experienced in our print
shop. Of those vendors, six met minimum qualifications and a detailed site visit and testing
procedure was carried out at each site on each proposed equipment model. Copiers were tested
for speed, quality, reliability, electronic and digital features and capabilities, in-line folding and
finishing features, operational efficiency, and ability to output the type of work produced by
our shop. Price, machine experience in the market, and the physical size of the machine in
relation to the space available were also considered. Two finalists were selected and multiple
references were checked on the proposed equipment and the parent company. Based on all
factors, staff recommended leasing the following equipment; a Xerox Nuevera 120 with
Freeflow software, a Xerox 2101, and a Xerox 3535 color with a Fiery external controller. The
recommended equipment has an annual lease price of$79,885.67 plus cost per copy of.006 for
B&W and .0890 for color. The total estimated annual cost based on 2004 volumes is
$82,576 96, including tax. The 2004 actual copier expense was $84,786.98, which cost was
included in the 2005 Operating budget. Ms. Drake further advised that there are significant
costs to maintain copiers and that is why the City chooses to lease.
Ron Harmon moved to approve entering into a fifty-four month lease with Xerox
Corporation for two black and white and one color digital production copier(s), through
the King County Director's Association (KCDA) purchasing contract subject to approval
as to form by the Legal Department. Bruce White seconded the motion, which passed 3-
1 0.
4. ENVIRONMENTAL ENGINEER II POSITION
Public Works Director Larry Blanchard presented Mike Mactutis, Acting Environmental
Engineering Manager, to present the Environmental Engineer II Position. Mr. Mactutis
advised that the Public Works Department is requesting authorization from City Council to
create and fill an Environemental Engineering II position for a variety of work currently being
performed by staff and consultants. He stated that an Environmental Engineer II was requested
in the 2005 Budget for a variety of work currently being performed by staff and consultants,
but was somehow associated entirely with the Critical Areas Ordinance (CAO). Mr. Mactutis
advised that consultant costs for wetland peer review has been increasing over the past four
years and currently the functions of the proposed Environmental Engineer are being performed
by consultants and existing staff at a total cost in 2004 of$134,000 He further stated the City
spends approximately $100,000 to $150,000 per year on environmental consulting that this
position could help support. In addition, funding the position would provide for an additional
$80,000 of staff productivity on existing projects and programs, and additional savings could
result from the new Environmental Engineer II being able to complete wetland delineations,
conceptual wetland mitigation plans and final wetland mitigation plans for CIP projects at rates
less than what the City pays for outside consultants. This positron could help with the
envirommental permitting with other agencies for CIP projects rather than using consultants.

He stated that adding this position would provide increased customer service to the developers
by providing a quicker response to applicant submittals, improve the wetland program, provide
needed attention to existing projects and programs, provide in-house expertise and assistance
for enviromnental CIP and mitigation projects, and provide a total savings to the City of
$129,000. There would be no unbudgeted fiscal/personnel impacts caused by filling this
position. Questions were asked from the Committee.
Bruce White moved to recommend the full City Council authorize the creation and filling
of an Environmental Engineering II position. Ron Harmon seconded the motion, which
passed 3-0.
5. 2005 BOND REFUNDING
Finance Director Bob Nachlinger presented the 2005 Bond Refunding in a PowerPoint
presentation and introduced Dave Traegeser of Bank of America should the Committee have
questions. Mr. Nachlinger advised the refunding and restructuring of the various debt issues
can reduce the costs of our outstanding debt. The new bond issue is approximately$7,325,000.
He stated that the City has several issues of outstanding debt that may be refunded at lower
rates, saving the City an estimated $292,000 over the life of the bonds. These include
1 approximately $2,050,000 of the 2000 LTGO bond, $2,520,000 of the 1993 Sewer Revenue
bonds, $1,485,000 of the 1995 LTGO & Refunding bonds and $1,102,000 of the 1996 Public
Works Trust Fund Loan. He stated that the net Present Value savings of about $292,000 is
expected over the life of the bonds.
Ron Harmon moved to recommend adoption of the proposed refunding bond ordinance.
tBruce White seconded the motion,which passed 3-0.

' Harmon and passed 3-0.
Pacific Highway South Project—Informational
Tim LaPorte, Design Engineering Manager said that the City had just received approval
from the Federal Government to advertise the project. With Federally funded projects all
steps must be followed. All right of way must be obtained before project can be
advertised. The approval came a month later than we had hoped for resulting in the work
needing to be completed in a very short time frame. Tim wanted the Council to be aware
that to complete the work in a timely fashion there will only be one lane available in each
direction for some time For the past 7 years the Engineering staff has met with all of the
business owners to keep them updated on the progress, in the past 2 months all of the
owners were contacted again to update them. Staff will continue to work with business
owners to address any problems.
The meeting adjourned at 5:50 P.M.
