GROWTH MANAGEMENT UPDATE - (F. Satterstrom)
First, Planning Manager Fred Satterstrom reported that the Growth
Management Service Agreement from King County will be coming to the
Committee on May 18, 1993 . Second, Mr. Satterstrom reported SHB 1761
passed in the Legislature that gives a one year extension for the
completion of the Comprehensive Plan under the Growth Management Act, but
no extension on the development regulations were given. Fred said this
will double the work.
Planning Director Jim Harris requested to bring back Potential Annexation
Areas to the Committee on May 18, 1993 . The action then will be
forwarded to the City Council with the intent to annex resolution.
METRO SUBSIDIZED BUS TICKETS - (J. Johnston)
Planner Rachel Johnston stated in January 1992 , the Metro Council formed
a Transit Fare Task Force to study fare issues and develop a fare
structure recommendation to their full council. One of the components of
the Task Force's recommendation was the allocation of subsidized tickets
for human services needs. To accomplish this goal, Metro Council adopted
Resolution No. 6443 which enabled them to allocate in 1993 $200, 000 for
subsidized bus tickets for human services transportation. To use these
tickets human services agencies would match 25% of the cost of the
tickets and Metro would pay for the remaining 75% of the cost.
Therefore, $200, 000 from Metro and $66, 667 from human service agencies
would provide $266, 667 worth of bus tickets. Of the $200, 000, Seattle
will receive $109,752 and the remaining $90,248 will be apportioned to
unincorporated King County and 10 cities within the County. The
allocation was based on a formula by poverty population - number of
households receiving less than $15, 000 annually. According to 1990
CITY COUNCIL PLANNING COMMITTEE MINUTES

Census data, Kent has 2, 668 such households. Thus, Kent is apportioned
$5,207 for subsidized bus tickets. This amount cannot be acquired by
Kent as funding, but rather "set aside" as a valuated amount which Metro
will disburse directly to designated human services agencies that serve
low income Kent residents. The County Shelter Providers Committee of the
Seattle King County Coalition for the Homeless proposed a management plan
for distribution of Metro subsidized bus tickets to homeless
clients. Representatives of King County and suburban cities recruited
additional agencies that serve low-income individuals. Planner Johnston
reported a revision to the Proposed Provider Allocation Plan with
additional agencies and the allocated amounts. Staff requested that the
following actions be approved:
1. Approval to allocate Kent's portion of funds ($5, 207) as
proposed in the Provider Allocation Plan (Attachment B) .
2 . Forward to full City Council for consideration at its May 4th
meeting, and authorization for the MAYOR to send a letter to METRO
outlining Kent's approved allocation of funds.
Councilmember Johnson MOVED and Chair Orr SECONDED a motion to approve
the aforementioned two(2) actions. Motion carried.
ADDED ITEMS•
SEWER EXTENSION TO CITY OF SEATAC - (L. Orr)
Chair Orr mentioned that over a year ago the item of sewer extension to
the City of SeaTac went to the Public Works Committee which accepted the
"engineering concept" to extend the sewer across the river. Then, this
item came to the Planning Committee. The Planning Committee voted to
disapprove the request to extend the sewer. When the item came to the
City Council, the City of SeaTac pulled the item from the agenda. Orr
said the advise from our City Attorney Roger Lubovich is for this item to
come back to the Planning Committee for review to reaffirm the decision.
If this is still the Committee's decision, then he recommended forwarding
this to the City Council for action. Chair Orr asked Jim Harris to call
the City of SeaTac about the issue and Mr. Harris will report on what he
finds out at the May 4 , 1993 meeting.
SHORT PLAT PROCEDURES
Planning Director Harris requested that this project be brought back to
the Committee in late June or July 1993 .
