"'A5X1 "'" Kent City Council Workshop Minutes
July 15, 2014
The workshop meeting was called to order at 5:04 p.m. by Council President Ralph,
i
Councilmembers present: Ralph, Boyce, Berrios, Higgins, and Thomas.
Councilmember Ranniger arrived at 5:27 p.m.
Recreation Marijuana Zoning. - Fred Satterstrom presented the history of
marijuana legislation in the City of Kent. He communicated that the Land Use and
Planning Board (LUPB) reviewed the topic with the City staff. He said Katie Graves,
Planner would discuss the recommendation of the LUPB and David Galazin, Assistant
City Attorney would review the legal side of the issue.
Graves communicated that the impacts to consider when contemplating zoning for
marijuana use are odors, safety, crime, and surrounding land uses. Additionally,
having the appropriate zone districts, the purpose of those zoning districts,
geographical locations, and whether there are other permitted uses in the zones are
further considerations. She pointed out the zoning options for marijuana production,
processing, and retail sales. Graves continued and communicated that seven people
gave public testimony with one recommending production be allowed in agricultural
zones, as well as manufacturing zones, two people recommended production and
processing be allowed in both M2 and M3 zoning districts, and four people supported
a ban on all uses. She added that the LUPB passed by a vote of 6-0 to not allow
marijuana retail uses in any zoning district. A motion for option B to allow marijuana
processing in M3 zoning district also failed by a vote of 3-3. Finally, Graves noted that
the LUPB passed by a vote of 4-2 to allow marijuana production uses in any zoning
district.
Galazin replied to Councilmember Thomas that marijuana isn't considered agriculture.
He added that the three uses (production, processing, and retail) need to be
considered separately. He added that there are applications for producers and
processors to forego taxing. He stated that if the City only allows production it is
taxed under wholesaling and none of it would be taxed under the B&O tax. Galazin
continued and noted that retail sales would cause the most trouble, but if the City was
to allow retail sales and one store sold 11 pounds, he estimated it would result in
$1,000 in revenue for the City. However, the City can impose a retail sales tax which
could result in revenues of $350,000 with allowing three retail stores per year, each
selling 20 pounds a week for a year.
Galazin explained to Councilmember Berrios that Colorado had medical marijuana
outlets in place then moved into recreational sales. Thus, Colorado had regulations in
place prior to recreational sales. Here in Washington there are no regulations in place
and all of this is new.
Galazin replied to Councilmember Boyce concerning lawsuits imposed on cities that
impose a ban and said the Attorney General communicated that cities have an
inherent authority to have businesses where they want them and are allowed to do so
through zoning. He noted that the City doesn't have the authority to regulate what is
being sold, only where it is being sold. Galazin communicated that as long as it is still
Kent City Council Workshop Minutes July 15, 2014
illegal under Federal law the Federal government can impose that law and the
businesses that have been allowed to exist could be seized and shut down. He added
that there have been lawsuits filed and they raise issues that have been addressed in
the Attorney General's opinion.
Councilmember Higgins verified the tax implications with Galazin.
Galazin communicated that the largest production facility could be 21,000 square
feet.
Councilmember Thomas inquired what could happen to the three retail outlets that
are operating here in Kent and Galazin communicated that they are illegal.
Councilmember Thomas asked what has been done and Galazin replied that if the
State Legislature does away with medical marijuana/collective gardens they won't be
able to exist.
Galazin replied to Councilmember Berrios about local jurisdictions and said Des
Moines is allowing retail and has two or three stores. He stated that smaller cities are
doing moratoria. Councilmember Fincher communicated that Renton is recommending
having them in light industrial zones and Tukwila has located them in north Kent.
Galazin stated that the top five cities have allowed it in some shape or fashion and
didn't know what Auburn was doing.
Councilmember Berrios inquired if the business community is weighing in on this as
far as their employees and Galazin communicated that most businesses are sticking
to a drug-free workplace and not allowing it. He noted that the Seattle City Attorney
bought some and brought it back to work. He was informed that the City is a drug
free workplace and they get Federal grants. He then apologized for his purchase.
Galazin pointed out that there has been an increase in positive DUI arrests since I-
502. Galazin replied to Councilmember Berrios and said that he hasn't seen a shift in
business policies concerning marijuana usage in employees.
I
Councilmember Fincher verified that if the odor is witnessed a business can be
investigated and shut down. She added that there is a credit union that is allowing
marijuana business owners to have bank accounts.
i
Councilmember Thomas recommended having this heard at an upcoming Operations
Committee meeting.
Councilmember Boyce inquired about possibly having a financial projection prepared.
Councilmember Berrios communicated that any financial projections have to be very
carefully considered due to there being other locations in local jurisdictions.
Council President Ralph expressed concerns about where is it appropriate to have
these businesses located.
Satterstrom communicated that as a land use issue this should go to the Economic
and Development Committee.

Kent City Council Workshop Minutes July 15, 2014
Satterstrom communicated that he will prepare a more detailed analysis of what other
cities are doing.
i
Galazin stated he would provide numbers concerning how many hours staff has
worked on this.
Internal Debt Update. - Paula Barry, Acting Finance Director presented an update
on the City's internal debt. Barry noted that there is unstructured and structured
debt. She highlighted the structured internal debt, which are other capital projects,
ShoWare operating, street capital projects, and sewer capital projects, which total
$10.4 million. Council President Ralph verified that the ShoWare has $300,000
coming from the Parks budget to cover the shortfall from the facility.
Councilmember Boyce verified that any suggestion for internal debt in the future will
go to Council for approval first.
Barry highlighted the unstructured internal debt and noted that it is made up of the
capital improvements fund and the golf fund, which total $6.1 million.
Tom Brubaker, Interim Chief Administrative Officer communicated that there is a plan
to sell the Par 3 property and use those funds to assist with maintaining the
remainder of the property. He added that this is debt with no designated revenue
source to pay it off. He continued and discussed sources of repayment and added that
the Strategic Opportunities Fund has $424,000 at the close of 2013. He also stated
that the B&O tax should result in an excess of $5 million. He stated that when the
books close in two to three weeks Finance will be able to determine what excess funds
there are.
Railroad Grade Separation Local Improvement District Proposal. - Tom
Brubaker, Interim Chief Administrative Officer explained what a local improvement
district was. He said the Council can have one LID done for the grade separation
project at 228th, one for both projects at (228th and 212th), or an LID completed for
all of them.
Mark Howlett, Design Engineer, discussed the history of this item. He noted that the
City has $13 million of the Freight Mobility Strategic Investment Board (FMSIB) funds
and FMSIB wants a plan on how the City plans to utilize the funds. He noted that the
South 228th Burlington - Northern/Santa Fe (BNSF) Railroad Grade Separation
project was completed in 2009 at a cost of $20 million. Tim LaPorte, Public Works
Director, communicated that the City chose not to do an LID for the project.
i
Chad Bieren, City Engineer, highlighted that the 228th and 212th separations both
have a $2 million line item from the B&O tax for it either to be a part of the project or
to just replace the existing aging infrastructure.
Howlett communicated that the grant agencies are pleased when the jurisdictions
utilize their own funding for these projects and displayed all of the LIDs that have
been done in the City for the past four decades.
3
Kent City Council Workshop Minutes July 15, 2014
Brubaker communicated that all of the LIDS in the past had no protest covenants.
Howlett presented the proposed corridor LIDs along 196th, 228th, and 277th and
discussed the value of having grade separations. Based on the initial analysis, the
LIDs can pay for themselves in two years and climate traffic delays attributed to
vehicles sitting at the railroad crossings, he explained.
i
LaPorte communicated for the past 35 years the City has used LIDs to build
infrastructure. However, several of the existing roads in Kent do not qualify to have
an LID be utilized to fund them and the City has been using a very good system to
obtain funds to execute those LIDs.
Councilmember Boyce confirmed with Howlett that a consultant firm concluded that
there is an increased financial value in properties with LIDs applied. He added that
property values would go up based on not having to wait at railroad crossings.
Councilmember Higgins said at the Public Works Committee meeting a representative
from Foster Pepper LLC noted that the vacancy rate along 212th is 10 percent and the
rate along the area with a grade separation is 5 percent. He concluded that there is a
5 to 7 percent vacancy decrease attributed to the presence of an LID.
Consensus was that it would take about $53 million to fully fund all of these grade
separation projects.
Councilmember Higgins stated that a part of the study would determine if the City
would be doing more harm than good with a grade separation.
Council President Ralph expressed struggling with whether or not property owners can
afford to pay for an LID.
Councilmember Berrios noted that all the businesses are already paying B&O taxes
and would have to pay for LIDs, too.
Brubaker communicated that there are two hurdles, whether or not property owners
will ban together and petition the LID, and whether or not they contend that they are
paying too much of an accessed value.
Councilmember Boyce verified that the contract concerning hiring a contractor to
conduct a study is on the consent calendar in today's packet.
The meeting adjourned at 6:47 p.m.

well with vehicle thefts with a 15 percent decrease and six arrests. He noted that one
of the people arrested was wanted in 11 jurisdictions. Vehicle prowls have reduced 18
percent since May and there were eight arrests by the Neighborhood Response Team.
He noted that one arrest cleared six cases. There was an increase in residential
burglaries, but the number reflects a 30 percent decrease overall compared to last
year. He stated that many of the burglaries were open garage door burglaries. He
warned people to close their windows and doors even though it is hotter outside. He
added that there were three commercial burglary arrests and a 47 percent decrease in

police patrols. He discussed the 4th of July and fireworks. He stated that there were
341 incidents and 144 calls made to the police department concerning fireworks. He
noted that there were seven arrests for fireworks this year. Kammerzell also discussed
Kent Cornucopia and said there weren't any significant events. He noted that there
were 30 gang detectives working undercover and in uniform who prevented gang-
affiliated persons from entering the festival and fair.
Deborah Nellins, State Farm Insurance communicated that last year a grant was given
to the Police Department in the amount of $3,000 for illegal racing. She noted that as
a business owner she knows about the existence of the problem in Kent and presented
the Kent Police Department with a check for $15,000 for illegal street racing
enforcement.
G. Intergovernmental Reports - Council President Ralph attended the South County
Area Board meeting and reported on the Washington State Department of
Transportation 2014-2017 Strategic Plan. She stated that the bottom line is there isn't
enough transportation money to go around and there are deliberate decisions to be
made on what needs to be maintained. She noted that the gas tax implemented years
back is not stretching enough to keep transportation maintained. She added that the
next presentation was from the Washington State Planning Board and they are
working on prioritizing existing infrastructure and not focusing on new projects.
Concluding, she noted that the final presentation was on the light rail project and the
environmental impact studies and having the project move from Angle Lake and 200th
into Kent.
Councilmember Higgins noted that the Sound Cities Association Board of Directors and
the Regional Transit Committee meets tomorrow- He said there will be discussion on
the 2015 Metro Service reductions. He stated that it seems that the DART bus route on

Association, he said, concerning increased sales tax revenue and why they aren't in
line with the revenues that have been received.
PUBLIC HEARINGS
A. 2015-2020 Six-Year Transiortation Improvement Program (TIP).
Resolution - Adopt. - Monica Whitman, Senior Transportation Planner highlighted
the City's transportation improvement program (TIP) for the next six years. She said it
is a short-range planning document which is adopted annually. She noted that it can
be revised at any time as long as a public hearing is held. As far as grants, State
agencies require that every project that is submitted on a grant application be included
in a city's adopted Six-Year TIP. Whitman noted that there are 47 projects in the plan
and that those in the first three years are the ones that the City is more likely to fund.
She communicated that the TIP isn't a wish list it is a planning document that the City
wants to accomplish. She noted that the total amount of the TIP is $347 million.
Mayor Cooke opened the public hearing.
1. Randall C. Smith, Kent - Smith communicated that he would like the Council to take
item #24 off of the TIP and he is planning to build a 50 unit apartment complex on
2
Kent City Council Meeting Minutes July 15, 2014
that site. He stated he would like to start the due diligence process and begin the
project.
Council President Ralph moved to close the public hearing, seconded by
Councilmember Thomas. Motion carried 7-0.
The public hearing was closed.
Councilmember Higgins communicated that the Public Works Committee received a
cost benefit analysis concerning project #24. Whitman responded that the estimated
cost for the project is between $5 - $10 million and the estimated benefit is $4 million.
She stated it would take two to three years before the benefits would outweigh the
costs. She also stated that there is a significant amount of congestion at this site and
limited options as to what the City can do to alleviate it.
Chad Bieren added that the purchasing of the houses was included in the estimate.
Councilmember Higgins noted that if it was pulled from the TIP it would still be in the
Master Plan. Bieren communicated that this is an area that the City wants to build to
take care of the issues there.
Councilmember Higgins communicated that the study isn't persuading him and asked
what would having this go back to the Public Works Committee to take a closer look
do. Beiren responded that although the State wanted the TIP adopted by July 1, it can
go back to the committee.
Mayor Cooke confirmed that this could be adopted without the item and it could be
added at a later date.
Council President Ralph expressed concerns with this and stated this deserves
additional consideration.
Councilmember Boyce suggested removing item #24 from the TIP and having it j
reviewed again by the Public Works Committee.
Beiren communicated that 116th could be looked at and benefit costs would be
determined for each alternative. j
i
Councilmember Ranniger concurred with the rest of the Council.
Councilmember Fincher communicated that she hasn't had time to review the cost-
benefit analysis and would like to have more time.
Councilmember Thomas noted that this would move the congestion from the "Y" into
I
another area, but concurred with the rest of the Council.
Councilmember Higgins moved to adopt Resolution Number #1893 approving
the 2015-2020 Six-Year Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) striking
Project #24, seconded by Council President Ralph. Motion carried 7-0.

Kent City Council Meeting Minutes July 15, 2014
PUBLIC COMMENT
1. Mary Personette, Kent - Personette expressed concerns with fireworks and urged
the Council to ban fireworks in Kent. She read a letter she sent to the Kent Reporter
and noted the intensity of the fireworks this year. She added that she had to have the
items cleaned from the roof of her home and that many local jurisdictions, to include
Federal Way, Renton, SeaTac and Tukwila ban fireworks.
(
2. Sharon Gehring, Kent - Gehring communicated that there are out of control
fireworks in her neighborhood and there are large items being shot off. She asked for
a ban of fireworks in Kent.
3. Sally Board, Kent - Board requested a ban of fireworks in Kent. She said she is tired
of being afraid of being at home and not able to go out that night. She indicated that
fireworks aren't fun anymore.
4. Patricia Roemmich, Kent - Roemmich communicated that fireworks used to be fun
and she used to enjoy them, but she doesn't any longer. She said she is afraid to leave
her house on July 4t' and a bush on her property caught fire last year. She said she
wants them banned in Kent. She stated that illegal fireworks are being lit in her cul-
de-sac and noticed a burnt spot on her roof. She said she is terrified and has to
protect her house. Additionally, she said 38th Avenue faces the back of her house and
it is a tradition to light fireworks at her neighbor's house behind her and it is very
dangerous.
Councilmember Thomas communicated that he empathizes with the four speakers and
stated that our neighboring cities, Auburn, Renton, and Federal Way have the same
issue. He said items that go up in the air are illegal. He inquired whether the speakers
called 911 and Sally Board replied that 911 was called. She stated that she was
stunned by a M80 and broke her toe due to falling over from the noise.
Mayor Cooke stated that she wants to communicate with each of the speakers after
the meeting. She added that it was one of her first issues she took on when she was
elected Mayor in 2006. She stated that she isn't calling for a ban for all fireworks, but
it takes a vote of the Council to restrict or ban fireworks.
I
Councilmember Thomas called for a point of order.
Councilmember Thomas noted that legislation has been brought forth and it hasn't
been adopted.
Councilmember Berrios communicated that as a new Councilmember he appreciates
the communication to the Council concerning fireworks. He noted that the Council has
also received emails and there were fireworks going off illegally last night. He felt this
needs to be revisited and looked at so it is fair to the entire community and the police
and fire departments. He highlighted that there were 144 incidents with only two
arrests and four infractions.

Kent City Council Meeting Minutes July 15, 2014
Councilmember Ranniger communicated that the program she brought forth was called
"Education, Amnesty, and Awareness" when she was chair of the Public Safety
Committee. She expressed what the program entailed and communicated that there
are five Councilmembers that are new to the Council. She also felt this item should be
revisited by the full Council.
Council President Ralph stated that this is one of those topics that comes up every
year and is great concern and frustration to her as a Councilmember. She noted that
the City is close to one of the biggest firework selling machines around and even with
a ban they wouldn't stop. She said there are tools in place for the police department
for enforcement. However, maybe this is a budgeting issue and there needs to be an j
"all hands on deck" notice put out and overtime paid. She communicated that she felt
it needs to go back to the Public Safety Committee to determine what other tools the
City has. She stated that an all-out ban wouldn't help because fireworks are banned in
the surrounding jurisdictions and they are still being purchased and shot off. She said
she is supportive of the discussion and thanked the residents for coming out and
speaking.
Councilmember Boyce communicated that the City has to be able to identify what
problem is being solved. He said he is open to have a conversation because the
Council hasn't discussed the item and the community, Police, and Fire Department
should be involved.
Councilmember Fincher thanked the residents for calling and said police and fire were
out looking and listening for fireworks. She noted that some of the cases involve
children and you can't arrest children. However, the fireworks were confiscated. She
noted that the Council will talk about it and it is an important issue. She urged
residents to call when they hear fireworks that are illegal. She noted that the police
were citing individuals and taking fireworks away.
Mayor Cooke discussed the possibility of having a fine for possession of illegal
fireworks.
