Regarding: RTID/Sound Transit Roads and Transit Proposal
As requested attached are descriptions and diagrams of the referenced proposal to be
presented to voters on November 6th
RTID
The principal RTID projects benefiting the Kent/Sound King County area are:
• SR 509 to I-5 completion - This project significantly improves traffic flow on I-5, eliminates
the current "Southcenter Crawl" and expands capacity on I-5 through West Hill of Kent all
of the way to Federal Way It also provides a direct offramp connection to the new 228th
Corridor. Completion of the SR 509/I-5 improvements will also have a significant benefit to
SR 167 in that adding capacity to I-5 will have a tendency to 'pull" traffic off of SR 167
thereby relieving pressure here.
+ SR 167 Corridor Improvements - This RTID project will target chokepoints and bottlenecks
currently in the system The proposal would complete the HOV lanes on SR 167 in King
County An additional southbound lane from S. 180th to S 277th will increase capacity
and reduce congestion delays southbound. The existing HOV lanes are also being
converted to HOT lanes (a separate, already funded project under construction) An added
benefit is that the HOT lanes could be extended on SR 167 all of the way to I-405.
• SR 167/405 Interchange Improvements - Analysis describes this interchange as the worst
in the State in terms of congestion. The RTID proposal would provide a direct HOV to HOV
lane connection for both northbound and southbound traffic eliminating the weave and
many person - hours of delay
• I-5/SR 18/Federal Way - Known as the "triangle" project, this interchange project is more
distant from Kent but benefits commuters/employees traveling through the Kent area using
either I-5 or SR 18. This interchange is also currently "broken" due to the hours of
congestion each day. The solution involves direct ramp connections between I-5/Highway
18 and SR 161 (Enchanted Parkway).
Sound Transit - Phase 2
• The principal Sound Transit project that will benefit the Kent/South King County area is
extension of light rail from SeaTac airport through West Hill of Kent to Federal Way and the
Tacoma Dome The light rail route will not only serve West Hill Kent, Des Moines and
Federal Way residents but it will also provide a commuter alternative to I-5 and SR 167, in
addition to the Sounder which is more valley oriented. Increasing commuter options will
have the benefit of decreasing commuter pressure on I-5, SR 167 and the Sounder.
• Parking Expansion - The success of the Sounder has made commuter parking difficult in
many South King County/North Pierce County cities. In the Sound Transit Phase Z proposal
Auburn, Puyallup and Sumner would have additional parking garage space. Tukwila's
station would be built
Details, diagrams and descriptions of the projects follow. Please contact us, Larry, Tim, Steve
or Cathy for further clarity or information if desired

This interchange is a nigh crash location and experi-
ences traffic congestion at the cloverleaf as drivers A
navigate among 1-5, SR 18, SR 161 and access to N
the city of Federal Way The project will eliminate the
loop ramps and eliminate the current weave situa-
tion caused by closely spaced on- and off-ramps on
1-5 and SR 18 The loop ramps would be replaced
with flyover ramps tnat are safer; they would also
increase the capacity of 1-5 and SR 18. Traffic con-
gestion would lessen and safety would improve in all Federal
directions as a result 'tt'4a Y
RTID funding would:
• Construct a collector/distributor roadway that 99
provides both a southlbound 1-5 and a westbound
SR 18 direct connection to SR 161
• Rebuild the southbound 1-5 ramp to eastbound

to grant and record the temporary construction easement for the property at Arbor
Heights 360 Park, upon approval by the City Attorney
' Olympus Management, owner of the Arbor Village Assisted Living Community
property, which is located directly west of Arbor Heights 360 Park at SE 240`f' Street
and 116`h Avenue SE, intends to construct a new building The building plans require a
rock retaining wall be constructed on their site Construction of the new rock watt will
require a 10-foot temporary easement, as well as a one (1) foot permanent easement on
the west edge of the park property, to allow enough room for the retaining wall to be
constructed. Neither easement will impact the existing park retention ponds or trail
system, as none are located in the construction area. There are no charges attached to
this easement considering Olympus Management donated 1.06 acres of land to the City
for this park in May 2005

September 4, 2007
To: Chair Tim Clark and Operations Committee Members
From: Mark Howlett, Public Works Engineering Design Manager
Through: Larry Blanchard, Public Works Director
Subject: Geographic Information System (GIS) Position
MOTION: Recommend authorizing amendment of the 2007 budget in order to
create a new Engineering Technician position in the Geographic Information
System (GIS) group of the Public Works Engineering Design Section to be
funded through the Utility Fund.
' BACKGROUND/HISTORY: Approximately 11/2 years ago the Public Work Department reorganized
the Design and Property Management Sections. After the Property Manager retired, the Department
assigned the work duties to other staff within the Design, Survey, and Development Review
Sections, which has worked well. As part of the reorganization, the Department eliminated the
Property Manager position, which was a senior level position, and created one and one-half new GIS
positions with the other half position to be funded in the 2007 budget This proposal was presented
to the Mayor in May of 2006 and was approved One of the Technician positions was filled.
Unfortunately, due to an oversight, the half-position request was not included in the final 2007
budget.
The Department requests that the Operations Committee authorize amendment of the 2007 budget
and create this new position in the GIS group to be funded out of the Utility funds.
The Geographic Information System (GIS) group in the Public Works Engineering Design Section
has a backlog of over 4 work years. This backlog does not include any of the additional work
anticipated by the potential annexation of the Panther Lake area. Currently 75 percent of the GIS
time is spent on preparing maps, providing analysis to the organization and database maintenance
while the other 25 percent is spent on backlogged work.
With the GIS workload continuing to increase. it has become imperative that the GIS group receive
an additional technician position.
' SUMMARY: Because of the additional workload and responsibilities associated with the backlog of
GIS work, and the anticipated increase in GIS responsibilities and work load, the Public Works
Department requests that the Operations Committee recommend that the City Council amend the
2007 budget to create a new Engineering Technician II position in the GIS group Approval of this
position will go a long way towards helping the City alleviate the GIS backlog.
RECOMMENDATIONS: Recommend authorizing amendment of the 2007 budget in order to create
a new Engineering Technician position in the Geographic Information System (GIS) group of the
Public Works Engineering Design Section.
BUDGET IMPACT: Proposed position is a Level 28C to be funded out of the Utility funds.

Regarding- Ordinance Establishing Additional No Parking Zones on Portions of 27th PI. S.
and S 256th Street - Recommend Adoption
MOTION: Recommend council adopt the proposed ordinance which amends
section 9.38.020 of the Kent City Code to add additional parking prohibitions on
portions of 27th Place South and South 256th Street.
SUMMARY:
The Police Department has requested council consider an ordinance which creates no
parking zones on 27th Place South from South 259th Street north to South 256th Street and
on South 256th Street from 27th Place South east to the traffic control gate installed on
South 256th Street
The Appian Way and Bravado apartment complexes have advised the Police Department
that they would welcome the no parking zones. According to the managers, there is
adequate parking within the complex parking lots to accommodate their tenants and agreed
the no parking zones would increase safety in the neighborhood The managers spoke of a
young child who was hit by a car a few weeks ago, and the limited visibility afforded to
tenants as they exit the parking lots due to the cars parked on the street. Appian Way has
over 250 children that participate in its programs, and its manager spoke of many near
misses of children being hit by cars.
It appears that there is adequate parking in the four-plex rental buildings located on South
256th Street and 27th Place South. Each four-plex has six to seven on site parking spots to
accommodate their residents and they should have little need to park on the street.
In addition to creating more visibility to tenants as they exit the apartment complexes, the
no parking zones would help to clean up the neighborhood. The apartment managers work
hard to ensure their parking lots only contain properly licensed, running cars of tenants
residing in their apartments. Unfortunately, this action causes the tenants to move their
junk cars to the street In addition, there are officer safety concerns with gang and drug
activity where these cars provide cover for criminals to conduct business and create a safety
risk for our officers.
BUDGET IMPACT:
Nominal cost to create and post appropriate no parking signs.

ORDINANCE NO.
AN ORDINANCE of the city council of the city of
Kent, Washington, amending section 9.38 020 of the
Kent City Code, entitled "No parking zones," to add
parking prohibitions to portions of 27th Place South and
South 2561h Street
RECITALS
A. In KCC 9.38 020, the Kent City Council has created a number of no
parking zones throughout the City for various reasons. The Kent Police
Department has requested council adopt an ordinance which creates additional no
parking zones on 27th Place South from South 259th Street north to South 2561h
Street and on South 256th Street from 27th Place South east to the traffic control
gate installed on South 256th Street.
B. The neighboring apartment complexes have advised the Police
Department that they would welcome the no parking zones. According to the
managers, there is adequate parking within the complex parking lots to
accommodate their tenants and agreed the no parking zones would increase
safety in the neighborhood. The managers spoke of a young child who was hit by
a car a few weeks ago, and the limited visibility afforded to tenants as they exit
the parking lots due to the cars parked on the street. One of the complexes, the
Appian Way Apartments, has over 250 children that participate in its programs,
and its manager spoke of many near misses of children being hit by cars.
C. It appears that there is also adequate parking in the four-plex
rental buildings located on South 256th Street and 27th Place South. Each four-

plex has six to seven on site parking spots to accommodate their residents and
they should have little need to park on the street.
D. In addition to creating more visibility to tenants as they exit the
apartment complexes, the no parking zones would help to clean up the
neighborhood The apartment managers work hard to ensure their parking lots
only contain properly licensed, running cars of tenants residing in their
apartments Unfortunately, this action causes the tenants to move their Junk cars
to the street. In addition, there are officer safety concerns with gang and drug

create a safety risk for our officers.

Dear Mayor Cooke
Congratulations on your recent award In establishing financial assistance programs, Congress linked the receipt
of Federal funding to compliance with Federal civil rights laws The Office for Civil Rights(OCR), Office of
Justice Programs(OJP), U S Department of Justice is responsible for ensuring that recipient of financial aid from
ON, its component offices and bureaus, the Office on Violence Against Women (OVW), and the Office of
Community Oriented Policing Services(COPS) comply with applicable Federal civil rights statutes and
regulations We at OCR are available to help you and your organization meet the civil rights requirements that
come with Justice Department funding
Ensuring Access to Federally Assisted Programs
As you know Federal laws prohibit recipients of financial assistance from discriminating on the basis of race,
color, national oiigm, religion, sex, or disability in funded programs or activities, not only in respect to
employment practices but also in the dehvery of services or benefits Federal law also prohibits funded programs
or activities from discnminating on the basis of age in the delivery of services or benefits
Providing Services to Limited English Proficiency(LEP)Individuals
In accordance with Department of Justice Guidance pertaining to Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964,42
U S C § 2000d, recipients of Federal financial assistance must take reasonable steps to provide meaningful access
to their programs and activities for persons with limped English proficiency (LEP) For more information on the
civil rights responsibilities that recipients have in providing language services to LEP individuals, please see the
website at http//www lep gov
Ensuring Equal Treatment for Faith-Based Organizations
The Department of Justice has published a regulation specifically pertaining to the funding of faith-based
organizations In general.the regulation, Participation in Justice Department Programs by Religious
Organizations, Providing for Equal Treatment of all Justice Department Program Participants,and known as the
Equal Treatment Regulation 28 C F R part 38, requites State Administering Agencies to treat these organizations
the same as any other applicant or recipient The regulation prohibits State Administering Agencies from making
award or grant administration decisions on the basis of an organvation's religious character or altiliatnon,
religious name,or the religious composition of its board of directors
The regulation also prohibits faith-based organizations from using financial assistance from the Department of
Justice to fund inherently religious activities While faith-based orgam7ations can engage in non-tunded
inherently religious activities, they must be held separately from the Department of Justice funded program,and
customers or beneficiaries cannot be compelled to participate in them The Equal Treatment Regulation also
makes clear that organizations participating in programs funded by the Department of Justice are not pei matted to
discriminate in the provision of services on the basis of a beneficiary's religion For more information on the
regulation,please see OCR's website at htip//www ojp usdo) gov/ocr/etfbo him
State Admmistenno Agencies and faith-based organizations should also note that the Sale Streets Act, as
amended, the Victims of Crime Act, as amended, and the Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention Act,as
amended,contain prohibitions against discrimination on the basis of religion in employment These employment
provisions have been specifically incorporated into 28 C F R Part 38 1(f)and 38 2(l) Consequently, in many
circumstances, It would be impermissible for faith-based organizations seeking or receiving funding authorized by
these statutes to have pohues or practices that condition hiring and other employment-related decision',on the
religion of applicants or employees Programs subject to these nondiscrimination provisions may be found on
OCR's websiie at http//www ojp usdol gov/ocr/ Questions about the tegulation or the statutes that prohibit
disc mmnation in employment may be duocted to this Office

award, or the number of employees in the workforce,are subject to the prohibitions against unlawtul
discrimination Accordingly, OCR investigates recipients that are the subject of discrimination complaints from

or compliance reviews,audits that require recipients to submit data showing that they are providing services
equitably to all segments of their service population and that their employ inept practices meet equal employment
pportumty standards

Regarding: Safe Rental Housing Ordinance
Over this past year, city staff and the Public Safety Committee have worked extensively to
incorporate public comment into an ordinance which creates a new program aimed at
providing safer rental housing environments for Kent citizens This proposed ordinance is
presented to the city council tonight for its review and adoption.
The proposed ordinance adopts operational standards for multi-unit rental housing facilities.
It establishes a three-tiered license fee which is assessed based on the number of rental
units within a rental facility The ordinance also creates a voluntary three-tiered program,
known as STAR (Safe Tenants and Rentals program) The purpose of STAR is to encourage
landlords to maintain their properties and operate their businesses in a manner which
discourages criminal conduct, thus producing better quality housing and a safer
environment for tenants There are three levels to the STAR program An example of one
of the requirements of the STAR program is that the landlord use a crime free housing
addendum which can be utilized to evict a tenant if he or she commits a crime on the
property. The STAR program would also require landlords to participate in the Police
Department's trespass program, to ensure the property complies with building and nuisance
codes, and to attend Kent's Landlord Training program.
In an effort to encourage landlords to take an active interest in their properties and to
voluntarily participate in the STAR program, the ordinance includes incentives for such
participation. Should a rental facility participate, its annual business license fee, ranging
from $100 to $300 per year, is waived. In addition, rental properties participating in the
STAR program will receive signs stating their participation level, and will be listed on the
Kent Police department's website.
The ordinance also requires landlords to take responsibility to prevent the recurrence of
criminal conduct on their properties In the event a tenant and/or the guests of the tenant
commit three or more crimes on the property, the landlord will be assessed a civil infraction
that will be filed with the Kent Municipal Court. However, if the landlord has taken steps to
I prevent the crime from occurring, the infraction will not be issued. The infraction penalties
range from $250 for STAR Level A participants, to $1,000 for landlords who do not
participate in the STAR program
Memorandum:
September 18, 2007
Page- 2
In addition, should the landlord fail to maintain its property in accordance with the Kent City
Code and allows code enforcement violations to exist, an additional business license fee of
$1,000 is assessed against the rental property at the time it seeks to renew its annual
business license. However, this additional penalty will not be assessed if the hearing
examiner has determined the violations did not occur or the rental facility voluntarily
corrected the violations before the code enforcement hearing was held.
This ordinance has been before the Public Safety Committee on at least six different
occasions, and was presented at the Council Workshop on September 4, 2007 During this
process, staff sought the input from, and accommodated the interests of numerous parties,
including the Kent Chamber of Commerce, the Rental Housing Association, the
Manufactured Housing Communities of Washington, the Olympic Rental Association, and
various rental property owners.
Included below is a short comparison of some of the less comprehensive ordinances of
surrounding jurisdictions. These programs vary from city to city, and only the highlights are
set forth below.
Summary of Neighboring Agency Ordinances for Comparison
♦ Des Moines: Ordinance requires a $111.46 fee per unit in addition to its business
license fee of $150 Also requires the property owner to pay to the city $50 for each
police call out to the property. The safety program consists of three phases- (1) a
workshop on crime free housing offered by the police department; (2) a "Crime
Prevention through Environmental Design" walkthrough of property with police
department; and (3) a Safety meeting with tenants and police department.
♦ Burien: In the event the property owner attends a "crime free multi housing
seminar," the property owner receives a $25 reduction in the business license fee. ,
The general business license fee is $100 - $200 for the entire property, depending on
the number of units on the property.
♦ Auburn: This ordinance creates a mayor's advisory board on an 'gas needed basis" to
address safety concerns. The general business license fee is $50 - $200 for the
entire property, depending on the number of units on the property
♦ Olympia: This ordinance charges a $15 per unit fee. However, there is no program
designed to address criminal conduct at apartments.
♦ Federal Way: No ordinance/program.
♦ Renton: No ordinance/program.
♦ Puyallup: No ordinance/program.

ORDINANCE NO.

AN ORDINANCE of the city council of the city of
Kent, Washington, amending the Kent City Code to add
a new chapter 5 14, entitled "Rental Housing Safety "
r
RECITALS
rA. A significant number of multi-unit rental housing properties exist
within the city of Kent. For the most part, multi-unit rental property owners and
managers are responsible and create a safe housing option for renters within the
city. However, there are some multi-unit rental housing property owners who fail
to maintain their properties and thereby cause a deterioration in the quality of life
for their renters, and these properties have a detrimental effect on the value of
adjoining properties. Moreover, some multi-unit rental housing property owners
fail to screen prospective tenants and fail to take action to remove tenants who
utilize the property for unlawful activity. This creates an unsafe environment for
renters and those residing or conducting business on nearby property.
' B. City codes have proven ineffective in encouraging multi-unit rental
housing property owners who maintain unsafe properties, or properties which are
rdetrimental to the surrounding community, to clean up the properties or take
measures to exclude criminals from the properties.
C. The Public Safety Committee considered the adoption of an
ordinance to address problems with multi-unit rental housing at its meetings of
February 13, March 13, May 8, June 12, July 10, and September 11, 2007. The
Committee accepted comment from the Kent Chamber of Commerce, the Rental
Housing Association, the Olympic Rental Association, and rental property owners.

City staff also spoke and met with staff members, attorneys, and lobbyists who
represent the Rental Housing Association and the Manufactured Housing
Communities of Washington. The ordinance set forth below was altered over the 1
course of a number of months as a result of input received from these interested
parties. ,
D. The city council has developed this ordinance to give the police
department and code enforcement staff the tools necessary to encourage multi-
unit rental housing property owners to maintain and improve the safety, quality,
and appearance of the rental properties they own, and therefore, provide a safer
living environment for renters.
NOW THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF KENT,
WASHINGTON, DOES HEREBY ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS:
ORDINANCE ,
SECTION 1. - Amendment. The Kent City Code is amended to add a new
chapter 5.14, entitled "Rental Housing Safety," as follows:
Chapter 5.14
Rental Housing Safety
Sec. 5.14.010. Findings. Council declares that the citizens of the city of
Kent have a right to safe rental housing and that the city should assist rental
property owners and managers in order to reduce the occurrence of criminal
conduct on rental properties The council finds that it is a reasonable exercise of
its police powers to require rental property owners to take reasonable steps to
prevent the use of rental property for criminal purposes, and that rental property
owners should be penalized in the event they take no action to discourage crime
from reoccurring on their rental properties. The council further finds that a
program that provides incentives to property owners who take proactive steps to ,
prevent criminal conduct on rental property will serve the public health, safety,
and welfare. '

Information Technology Director Mike Carrington and Systems Manager John Humprheys
presented the Oracle Licensing for Permitting and Police Records Systems Mr Carrington and
Mr Humphreys advised that the City has Permit Management (KIVA) and Police Records
(Tiburon) systems that both run on Oracle databases At the time of the purchase of those
software products a certain type of licensing (referred to as Universal Processing Unit or UPU)
was purchased for the Oracle database licensing. We were recently informed by Oracle that we
must now purchase updated Oracle database licensing in the amount of $100,793 35 to remain
in compliance with the current Oracle licensing model (referred to as Per Processor). The City
is at the beginning stages of upgrading the JD Edwards system to the latest version in order to
maintain support for that system. JD Edwards was purchased by PeopleSoft, and PeopleSoft
was subsequently purchased by Oracle (so JD Edwards is now an Oracle-owned system)
During the licensing review by Oracle (as part of the ]D Edwards upgrade) it was determined
that we are currently licensed under the Universal Processing Unit (UPU) license for KIVA (our
Permit Management System) and Tiburon (our Police Records System) and UPU licensing is no
longer sold or supported by Oracle Our Oracle partner representative (Mythics) provided us
with a discounted quote to purchase Oracle database licensing that is compliant with Oracle's
current licensing model (Per Processor Licensing). Questions were raised by the Committee
and Mr Humhreys addressed those questions
Deborah Ranniger moved to recommend that the Council authorize the Mayor to sign
a purchase order for Oracle database licensing for Permit Management and Police
Records Systems not to exceed $101,000. Debbie Raplee seconded the motion, which
passed 3-0.

Vision 2040 — Puget Sound Regional Council f PSRQ
Guest speaker Mr. Ivan Miller (Principal Planner of the Puget Sound Regional Council) explained
through a slide presentation the status of PSRC's development Vision 2040.
Miller addressed the Committee's questions with respect to PSRC's role in conjunction with the
Growth Management Act (GMA). He stated that the GMA monitors infrastructure, sprawl,
resource land protection, and historical preservation.
Miller stated that PSRC is a metropolitan and regional transportation planning organization. As
a Regional Transportation Planning Organization (RTPO) the PSRC is responsible for review and
certification of local plans.
Miller stated that PSRC serves as the region's economic development district. Under the GMA
the Region is required to adopt a regional framework within which countywide planning policies
and local plans are adopted.
Miller stated that the Vision 2040 document includes: 1) Environmental framework, 2) Regional
Growth Strategy, 3) Multifamily Planning Policies. and 4) Actions and Measures. This is looked
1 at as the long range plan for the four (4) county regions of King, Kitsap, Pierce and Snohomish
counties.
Miller described how the Regional Council General Assembly is structured. He explained what
data have been incorporated in the Vision 2040 document from the Vision 1995 document. He
stated that the need to accommodate the anticipated 1.7 million more people and 1.2 million
more jobs by the year 2040 drives the update of the Vision.
Miller spoke about how to accommodate growth while protecting the environment, creating
economic prosperity, and maintaining the community's overall quality of life. He stated that a
Supplemental Draft EIS along with a DRAFT Vision document is scheduled for release on July
16`h, launching a public comment period to run through September 71h. Miller stated that all
comments will be considered in the preparation of the final documents, which will be considered
for adoption by the General Assembly in April 2008.
Miller stated that PSRC will focus their attention on protecting the manufacturing and urban
growth regional centers, as they are areas of intensive activity. Miller stated that Vision 2040
will create the framework to incorporate more environmental policies.
Miller addressed concerns raised by the Committee regarding global warming. Miller spoke
about the factors PSRC will consider when they update their Transportation Plan, with climate
change being a primary focus.
Miller spoke about growth targets and trends and what defines an area as a core center versus
a metropolitan center. Miller stated that Multi-County Planning Policies are similar to
Countywide Planning Policies in that they focus on goals, policies and action measures. The
Vision 2040 document includes more policies than the 1995 document and those policies deal
with one topic each, whereas in the 1995 document each policy dealt with multiple topics.
' PEDC Minutes
July 9, 2007
Page 1 of 5
Miller stated that the Vision 2040 plan concentrates on growth in the Urban Growth Areas
(UGA), focuses on cities and centers, the regional open space plan, strengthens the land use
and transportation link; and promotes social equity, which were also included in the 95 addition.
Miller stated that the Vision 2040 plan will incorporate a new section on environmental policies
dealing with habitat, air and water quality, including the addition of a regional housing strategy ,
to strengthen our economic policies.
Miller stated that the value to local governments is the regional context for local decision
making. Jurisdictions work together to bend growth trends and match how growth is
accommodated with infrastructure and economic development; and to address issues that are
difficult to resolve for individual jurisdictions.
Miller stated that upon closure of the public comment period PSRC will work with the Growth '
Management Policy Board to review and analyze those comments and prepare the final
documents. The process will include additional meetings and hearings this winter with a
recommendation to the PSRC's Executive Board for general assembly action on May 4`h, 2008.
2007 Buildable Lands Evaluation
Suburban Cities Association (SCA) staff Michael Hubner stated that the Buildable Lands Report
is reviewed every five years. He stated that the SCA works with policymakers at the
countywide level as well as major stakeholders, realtors, homebuilders and environmental
groups. Hubner described the Buildable Lands Report from a countywide perspective, and
focused on findings specific to Kent. Hubner stated that this evaluation is a snapshot on how
Kent and the County as a whole are doing in accommodating growth.
Hubner stated that buildable lands are a Growth Management Act (GMA) requirement, wherein
a 1997 GMA amendment required several counties including King County to establish review
and evaluation programs. The GMA requires annual collection of data pertaining to
development activity which is reviewed over a five year period. Within that time-frame,
development trends are analyzed, land supply is evaluated, and new capacity is developed. At
the completion of the five year period, a Buildable Lands Report (BLR) is sent to the State.
Hubner stated that the first report was completed in 2002, with the next report due for
submittal to the State by September 1, 2007. He stated that the BLR is a technical document
where the findings may trigger a policy response to the GMA. Hubner stated that this report
acts as a midcourse check on how well the City's plans and other plans are performing in
achieving their growth goals. He stated that under the Countywide Planning Policies (CPP), the
City of Kent is considered both an urban and regional manufacturing center. ,
Hubner stated that the BLR has involved a considerable amount of cooperation between the
cities and county with Suburban Cities playing a key role in fostering the kind of in-depth and
technical coordination needed to ensure accurate and consistent comparable findings
countywide.
Hubner presented a schematic overview of the technical elements of buildable lands, speaking '
about net density and gross density issues. He stated that the buildable lands evaluation is part
of a Geographic Information Systems (GIS) based analysis that identifies vacant and
redevelopable parcels, critical areas, future land needs for rights-of-way and public facilities,
market availability, provides net acres or square feet of potentially developable available land.
Hubner stated that those acres are converted to units of development capacity, housing units,
or for employment job capacities, based primarily on densities observed during the most recent
five year period He stated that this study is similar to the types of capacity analyses planning
studies that the City and County have undertaken in the past, but with a strong element of
reality checking here with respect to looking at recent trends and analysis assumptions.

July 9, 2007

Hubner stated that growth targets established under the CPP are being updated. He stated
that SCA is looking at supply in terms of how many housing units and jobs Kent or the County
can accommodate, which should be sufficient to accommodate the growth we are anticipating
with the targets. He stated that if capacity is not sufficient to accommodate households and
jobs for the remainder of this planning period, than what the statute referred to as "reasonable
measures" must be adopted.
Hubner stated that several major findings at the countywide level included: 1) housing growth
1 rates are ahead of the targets for the 2001 - 2022 planning period. 2) Densities were higher for
single family and multifamily development permitted in the last five years compared with
densities observed with development permitted in the previous five years from 1996-2000. 3)
Land utilization for housing is becoming more efficient at a countywide level. 4) There are
sufficient housing and jobs capacities under current plans and regulations.
Hubner stated that Kent's 2022 target is for 4300 new households with nearly 2000 new
housing permitted in the city over the last five years, representing 44 percent of the 22 year
target accommodated in approximately a quarter of that time period.
Hubner stated that gross densities have not changed much in the city and that market is driving
smaller lots, with the city accommodating those densities by allowing clustering on the
unconstrained portions of residential plats.
' Hubner stated that a recession in the early years of this decade show lower amounts of
commercial and industrial square footage coming into the city, stating that overall it is
remarkable that significant development occurred in Kent and other locations.
I Hubner stated that the result of this analysis indicated that there are approximately 3600 acres
of potentially developable land with about one-third of that land constrained by critical areas.
He stated that further discounts were taken for future land use rights-of-way and public uses
1 (primarily storm water related). Hubner stated that market availability factors in, an indicator
that not all land will become available for development or redevelopment for a long time period,
currently leaving approximately 1600 acres of developable land in the city.
Hubner stated that there are is a potential for 6100 households to be accommodated under
Kent's plan, compared with approximately 2500 households that remain to be accommodated in
the current planning period under the CPP. He stated that there is sufficient job capacity, with
approximately 12,500 jobs that can be accommodated, compared to the 9,000 — 10,000
additional jobs yet to be accommodated in the City.
' Hubner stated that three-quarters of Kent's residential capacity is located on redevelopable land
within single family zones presenting hurdles for developing that land for more intensive uses
for housing.
iHubner stated that the County and the State will evaluate the need for any reasonable
measures, stating that it does not look like Kent will be required to adopt such measures. He
stated that the data are useful in evaluating how well the City is doing in terms of achieving
their plan for accommodating growth with a range of housing types; using land efficiently,
encouraging urban development, and redevelopable parcels needed to accommodate future
growth specifically after 2040.
Hubner stated that the Growth Management Planning Council will likely approve this report at
their October meeting, and then this will return to the PEDC in a ratification packet. He stated
that there is a new step in the Buildable Lands process which is effectively a route for legislative
action that recognizes the Buildable Lands Report in an official sense, for any future policy
making.

Recognition of Greenfield Park Neighborhood Council-Resolution
Neighborhood Program Coordinator Toni Azzola stated that the neighborhood program is
designed to foster better communication and provide a partnership between residents in a
specific geographic area and the City government. She stated that the objective of the program
is to provide an avenue for residents to work together and enhance the livability of their
neighborhoods.
Ms. Azzola presented the Greenfield Park Neighborhood Council consisting of 26 housing units
and bounded to the north by a King County storage area, to the east by 28th Avenue South, to
the south by 270th Street, and to the west by a vacant lot (Plat with recording no.
7682800155). She stated that the vacant lot will be developed and potentially be incorporated
as part of the Greenfield Park Neighborhood.
Ms. Azzola addressed questions raised by the committee, stating that if a neighborhood council
wants to extend their boundaries, it is likely the City would amend the original resolution
through the PEDC and City Council. In response to the Committee, Ms. Azzola stated that i
resident contact information is retained in her file and is not for public record. She stated that ■
she wouldn't provide information without first notifying residents.
Assistant City Attorney, Kim Adams Pratt clarified that though the resident contact information
is located in city files, if a public disclosure request is submitted, that file is subject to review,
and consideration would be made as to whether there was an exception that would withhold ,
any of that information. Ms. Adams Pratt stated that Toni could inform the residents that a
request had been made so they would be aware. However, it would go through our normal
public disclosure request process.
Albertson MOVED and Clark SECONDED a MOTION to recommend that the Council adopt the
proposed resolution which recognizes Greenfield Park Neighborhood Council, supports its
community building efforts, and confers all opportunities offered by the City's Neighborhood
Program. Harmon called for the Motion. Motion PASSED 3-0.
#ZCA-2007-3 Docketing and Comprehensive Plan Amendment Procedures
Planning Manager Charlene Anderson stated that this proposal amends the way we do business
related to changing our Comprehensive Plan and providing the public an opportunity to propose
changes to not only development regulations and the Comprehensive Plan text, but also to
Comprehensive Plan Maps.
Anderson stated that our existing process was found to be cumbersome and confusing for the
public, staff and the Council. She stated that this amendment changes the process in that there
is no public hearing held on the list itself.
Anderson stated that staff would compile proposals from the public to include: site specific
requests, requests to amend the map, text or development regulations, as well as area-wide
proposals like the Lake Meridian area. Anderson stated that staff would compile that list in a
report that would suggest whether or not the proposal is appropriate for the annual cycle or for
the more comprehensive update done every seven years.
Anderson stated that one major proposed change is that currently the City allows concurrent
requests to change the Comprehensive Plan Map and the Zoning Map, and this proposal
separates those changes. Thus, the Comprehensive Plan Changes would go through the LU&PB
first, followed by the request to change the Zoning Map which would go through the Hearing
Examiner Anderson stated that staff has strengthened the public participation requirements in
the proposal and simplified the process.
Anderson clarified that requested changes to a comprehensive plan, text, a map, or '
development regulations are compiled into a list defined as a Docket. She stated that there are
two ways to apply for a Comprehensive Plan Amendment; 1) Submit a request, pay a fee and
PEDC-Minutes
July 9, 2007
Page 4 of 5
5
go through the LU&PB, and 2) docket the request which is free to the public unless it is site
specific (a particular parcel).
Anderson responded to the Committee by stating that a zoning map change request is a quasi-
judicial procedure for a site-specific parcel zoning change, therefore it must be addressed
before the Hearing Examiner. The Comprehensive Plan portion would go through the LU&PB
and then to the Planning & Economic Development Committee (PEDC).
Anderson stated that the proposed change signifies that instead of action taken by the
Committee or the Council, the Docket would be presented to the PEDC with staff's comments
such as "this is appropriate for the annual cycle, this is appropriate for the seven year cycle, or
this is not something that should be looked at this year" then it would be passed on to City
Council with the PEDC comments, but would not require action on the Council's part.
Anderson stated that the proposed amendment talks about "annually providing a schedule for
public participation". She stated that staff would provide a citizen's guide explaining the
process and how citizens can propose amendments. She stated that staff would make available
the list of amendments proposed for a particular year along with comments on them, and the
docket report itself. Staff would hold public meetings related to the proposal, and would
provide public outreach through the Government Channel, the City's Website at
www.ci.kent.wa us, and whatever other means might be deemed appropriate.
