HomeMy WebLinkAbout03-11-2013 - Public Meeting March 11,2013 Renton City Council Minutes Page 72 Continuing, Mr. Fogarty reported that a taskforce was formed to develop the proposed levy package. He stated that many local officials served on subcommittees that were charged with describing what services are needed for the region over the next six years. Mr. Fogarty reported that the taskforce recommended that the levy remain a six-year levy with a rate of thirty-three and a half cents per$1,000 of assessed property tax value, and that an election be held in either August or November of 2013. Mr. Fogarty also reported that the taskforce recommended that there be no expansion of services;that no cost-shifting occur for ALS providers; that BLS providers continue to be funded at current levels; and that support programs for regional services find ways to control and maintain costs. He also reported that the fall prevention and the car seat programs remain funded and operate as regional programs. Concluding, Mr. Fogarty reported that in 2008 a typical homeowner would have paid approximately$100 a year for services,and the proposed 2014-2019 levy rate will cost a homeowner approximately$77 per year. He remarked that each city in King County with a population over 50,000 must pass a resolution approving the placement of the measure on the ballot in order for it to go forward, and requested that Council pass such a resolution. Mayor Law remarked that the intent of the public meeting was to provide both pro and con information regarding the proposed levy. He noted that no one had signed up or volunteered to speak in opposition to the measure. Public comment was invited. Dave Beedon (Renton) remarked that he believes in the value of taxes, especially for emergency medical services, and expressed support for the levy. Correspondence was entered into the record from Mary Weirich (Renton) expressing support for the levy. There being no further public comment, it was MOVED BY ZWICKER,SECONDED BY CORMAN, COUNCIL CLOSE THE PUBLIC MEETING. CARRIED.

Annexation: Parker, SE 120th This being the date set and proper notices having been posted and published in St& 155th Ave SE accordance with local and State laws, Mayor Law opened the public meeting to consider the 10% Notice of Intent to Commence Annexation Proceedings petition for the proposed Parker Annexation; 20.4 acres bounded on the north by SE 120th St.,on the east by the Urban Growth Boundary, on the south by SE 124th St., and on the west at approximately 155th Ave.SE. Associate Planner Angie Mathias reported that the annexation site is within the City's potential annexation area and contains single-family lots and vacant land. She remarked that there are no regulated slopes, and there is an identified wetland and a Class IV stream in the area. March 11,2013 Renton City Council Minutes Page 73 Ms. Mathias stated that public services are currently provided by Fire District #25,Water District#90, Renton sewer service, and the Issaquah School District. She stated that existing King County zoning is R-4(four dwelling units per gross acre), and that the City's Comprehensive Plan designates the site as Residential Low Density. She added that the area was pre-zoned as R-4(four dwelling units per net acre)which becomes effective if the annexation becomes effective. Ms. Mathias reported that currently there are 42 dwelling units in the area, and there would be$52,726 in revenues and $45,910 in costs annually to the City's Operating Fund if annexed,which would change to$90,049 in revenues and $80,276 in costs if the projected 22 additional dwelling units are built over the next ten years. Additionally, Ms. Mathias reported that there would be$5,806 in revenues and $1,063 in costs to the City's Capital and Enterprise Funds, which would change to$30,534 in revenues and $14,705 in costs if the projected build-out occurs over the ten-year period. Concluding, Ms. Mathias stated that the proposed annexation is generally consistent with City annexation policies and Boundary Review Board objectives, and the City's best interests and general welfare would be served by this annexation. Responding to Councilmember Palmer's inquiry, Ms. Mathias stated that one owner owns approximately 10 to 12 of the 22 vacant lots. Correspondence was entered into the record from the following individuals: Aaron and Virginia Sadler(King County) indicating opposition to the annexation; Mr.and Mrs. C.M. Dickson (King County)expressing drainage concerns and requesting a revision to the annexation boundaries to included their adjacent property; Steven Beck(Renton) expressing support for the annexation; and Chuck Hampton (King County)expressing opposition to the annexation. Public comment was invited. Adria Krail (Renton) remarked that the area contains homes built in the 1960s and 1970s, newer homes built in 2000, and brand new homes built in the last 12 to 24 months. Ms. Krail stated that in 2009 the City brought in sewers, which benefited the community. She also stated that she believes annexation to Renton of this area will provide many additional benefits for area residents. C.J. Dickson (King County)expressed support for the annexation; however, she requested that the proposed boundary be adjusted to include her adjacent property. She also requested that a drainage plan for the entire area be developed because water is pushed from lot to lot as people develop their properties. Andrew Croasdell (Renton), President of Maureen Highlands Homeowners' Association, stated that the boundary map of the area shows an extension off of NE 6th St.through to 155th Ave. SE. He asked if the annexation process will cause this proposed extension to be built. March 11, 2013 Renton City Council Minutes Page 74 Ms. Mathias stated that the annexation proposal has nothing to do with whether or not a roadway will be built on this unimproved right-of-way. She noted that at this time there are no plans to extend the road. Responding to Council President Corman's inquiry, Ms. Krail stated that she was not opposed to the suggested boundary change. Ms. Mathias also indicated that City staff was also not opposed to the suggested boundary change. There being no further public comment, it was MOVED BY ZWICKER, SECONDED BY CORMAN,COUNCIL CLOSE THE PUBLIC MEETING. CARRIED. MOVED BY ZWICKER,SECONDED BY PRINCE, COUNCIL ACCEPT THE 10% NOTICE OF INTENT PETITION FOR THE PARKER ANNEXATION,AUTHORIZE THE CIRCULATION OF A 60% DIRECT PETITION TO ANNEX SPECIFYING THAT SIGNERS SUPPORT FUTURE ZONING CONSISTENT WITH THE CITY'S COMPREHENSIVE PLAN LAND USE DESIGNATION AND ZONING,AND AMEND THE BOUNDARY TO INCLUDE THE DICKSON PROPERTY AS REQUESTED. CARRIED. ADMINISTRATIVE REPORT Chief Administrative Officer Jay Covington reviewed an administrative report summarizing the City's recent progress towards goals and work programs adopted as part of its business plan for 2013 and beyond. Items noted were: * King County Library System will host an open house at the downtown library on Tuesday, March 26 from 6:30 to 8 p.m. Citizens are invited to see the current designs for the new library. Representatives from KCLS and the City will be available to hear comments and answer questions. * The City has received a permit application submitted by KCLS for the new library building. The City has not accepted the application and will not accept the application until after the upcoming open house, and after Council has had time to review the schematic designs. Council's review of the application is tentatively scheduled for April 15,2013. The City believes allowing more time for public input is consistent with the library guiding principles Council adopted in September 2012. * There had been some recent discussion about the budget for the downtown library. The original budget was$9.3 million, of which approximately$400,000 was spent on the Big 5 site. The remaining budget,which the public was informed of last summer, is$8.9 million. As with any construction project,there are budgets within the larger budget for soft costs such as architectural design and engineering studies.This may be the reason why there has been confusion about the Cedar River library's budget. * There had also been some allegations about the improper disposal of library books. As best as can be discerned,the incident citizens are referring to occurred on March 30, 2010, shortly after the library was annexed to KCLS. Books are public property and therefore cannot be given away or sold. KCLS has foundations who receive donated library books that are no longer in circulation. It is believed that these paperback books had been donated to KCLS's foundation, and the foundation deemed them to be unsellable and therefore disposed of them in a recycle bin; not a garbage dumpster. fe. • ti" _ genda Item No.: 44• RENTON CITY COUNCIL MEETING PUBLIC HEARING/MEETING SPEAKER SIGN-UP SHEET (Page 1) CITIZENS MUST PROVIDE NAME AND ADDRESS IN ORDER TO BE CONTACTED OR TO BE A PARTY OF RECORD WHEN APPROPRIATE DATE: 1, fi PLEASE PRINT 5 Minute Time Limit 5 I Name: `-�A(� i p,, kr a 1 I Name: Address: b 5 t, f o 5a 1 671) 1 N & Address: City 9 e n � Zip CodeCASpC 9 City Zip Code Topic: pa, C �o Anne> Topic: Q)1 I f� 6 Name: �1 , � i<LSrv...)0„IDlckSo, Name: Address: \ (.„D.

Under RCW 35A.14.120, direct petitions to annex are initiated by property owners representing either at least 10%of the annexation areas assessed value. The proposed Parker Annexation site is bordered to the south by Southeast 124th Street, the Urban Growth Boundary to the east and north, and to the west by existing Renton City limits at 154th Avenue Southeast (if extended). The approximately 20.5-acre site is located in the City's East Plateau Potential Annexation Area. The area is currently designated Residential Low Density (RLD) on the City's Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map. The site currently has King County R-4 zoning. In 2007, the City pre-zoned the area R-4 four units per net acre, consistent with the RLD land use designation, through Ordinance 5254. The zoning would become effective if the area annexes. Council is required to hold tonight's public meeting with the applicants in order to decide whether the City wishes to accept, reject, or geographically modify the proposed annexation. If the Council decides to accept the proposed annexation it will typically: 1. Authorize the circulation a 60% Direct Petition to Annex. 2. Decide whether to require the simultaneous adoption of proposed zoning consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. 1 i "jr:-.:attcst_------ — — -; lin i CD i I _ 7.--c:›I -_-______ . I - H -_.
