Since the 2023 update to Council, the City has: 22 new requests received 15 studies evaluated 11 studies scheduled 1 study qualified 20 studies closed out 5 Post-installation studies Maria talked about the public process and detailed neighborhood meeting information, provided statistics on current projects, including those in construction, and post installation studies. City Council Workshop Workshop Regular June 4, 2024 Meeting Kent, Washington Minutes ......................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................._............................................................................................................................................................................................................... In April 2022 Council lowered the required response rate from residents supporting an application for a RTCP from 50% to 33%. And the approval rate from 67% to 55%. Since then 5 of 10 ballots have failed, all 5 below the minimum return rate of 33%. Only 1 was below the minimum Approval Rate of 55%. Unintended consequences: We have had several individuals tell us that they would vote NO, but knew they were outnumbered and would purposely NOT vote in hopes the minimum return rate was not met. Meeting ended at 5:34 p.m. K�w�le,y A.
