He remarked that these citizens helped Fire Department personnel give immediate aid to a victim, and also helped to prevent the fire from spreading to nearby properties. Chief Administrative Officer Jay Covington reviewed a written administrative report summarizing the City's recent progress towards goals and work programs adopted as part of its business plan for 2010 and beyond. Item noted: $• Residents are encouraged to bring their favorite potluck dish and attend their neighborhood picnic to get to know their immediate and surrounding neighbors and meet City representatives. The following picnics are upcoming: The Liberty Ridge Homeowners' Association will hold its annual picnic on Wednesday, August 4, beginning at 6 p.m. at NE 1st St. The Talbot Hill and Victoria Hill Neighborhood Associations' will have their annual combined picnic on Thursday, August 5, at 6 p.m. at Thomas Teasdale Park, 601S. 23rd St. Robert Watson (King County) shared his history of growing up and living in the West Hill area. He described the transformation of nearby Seattle neighborhoods and stated that he believes the business corridors in West Hill and Skyway can also be transformed. Mr. Watson remarked that allowing residents to vote on annexation will inspire investment in the area. Bud Dennison (Renton), Renton Shoreline Coalition, reported that significant progress has been made in regards to the Shoreline Master Program (SMP). He remarked that in his opinion progress has been made in critical areas, non- conforming structures, setbacks and buffers, shoreline protection, dock width, public access, height restrictions, and utilizing Army Corps of Engineers' regulations as guidelines. Greg James (Sammamish), operator of the Riviera Apartments, expressed appreciation to the Planning and Development Committee for the second extension of time regarding the SMP. Mr. James thanked Councilmember Briere for making a site visit to the Riviera Apartments. He also remarked that he hopes to see substantive changes to the SMP at the end of the process. Dian E. Ferguson (Tukwila) shared her experiences working and living in West Hill and Skyway. She stated that the area mirrors Renton's diverse population, that there are economic opportunities present, and that the area should be annexed. Ms. Ferguson stated that there are businesses looking to move to Skyway and are only hesitant because they do not know what form of governance will take shape there. She encouraged Council to allow West Hill citizens the opportunity to vote because she believes that the area, in the long- term, will be a benefit to the City. Paul Berry (King County) shared his experiences as a long-time resident and community activist in the West Hill area. He stated that the economic analysis that has been presented to Council is very optimistic and assumes that costs are going to be low and incomes will be high. He stated that the transition of August 2, 2010 Renton City Council Minutes Page 231 Citizen Comment: Johnson Proposed West Hill Annexation Citizen Comment: Savelle • Proposed West Hill Annexation Citizen Comment: Minter - Proposed West Hill Annexation Citizen Comment: Abdulle Proposed West Hill Annexation the West Hill business district is not unlike the transition occurring in the Renton Highlands and to expect large-scale retail on West Hill is unrealistic. He also remarked that retail sales tax and property tax will not substantially increase overtime. Continuing, Mr. Berry remarked that Renton will have to increase its service level for Fire and Emergency Services to meet what is currently being provided on West Hill. He stated that area residents will not accept a reduction in services. Mr. Berry also pointed out that the original petition to annex was signed by only ten percent of property owners and that a similar petition was presented to Council at the same time by property owners who wished not to be annexed. Ben Johnson (Renton) opined that the current sense of lawlessness in the Skyway and West Hill area is due to King County's lack of funding for local sheriffs and that Renton residents are burdened by this lack of funding. Mr. Johnson also remarked that although there is hope that the economic situation will get better and Skyway will be able to fund itself in the future, he believes that entering a business deal that is not good to begin with, will not necessarily get any better in the future. Michele Savelle (King County) shared her experiences as a block watch captain and volunteer coordinator for Skyway Solutions. She explained that Skyway Solutions is a grass roots movement that is working hard to build connections in the investment community to bring development to the Skyway and West Hill area. She encouraged Council to allow residents in the area to vote on the issue of annexation. Ron Minter (King County) stated that he is the owner of the Earlington Greenhouse and a member of the West Hill Business Association. He remarked that area residents are willing to share in the sizeable commitment the City will make to annex the West Hill area. Mr. Minter also stated that local groups such as Skyway Solutions, the West Hill Business Association, and the West Hill Community Council are working hard to build a stronger sense of community in the area. He remarked that Renton has the tools, leadership, and expertise to help with revitalization and urged Council to allow the question of annexation to go to a vote of the people. Hamdi Abdulle (Renton) remarked that she is a volunteer who helps refugees from Somalia who live in the West Hill area. She stated that many of these people feel that they still are refugees because they live outside of Seattle and Renton and do not receive services from those cities. Ms. Abdulle expressed appreciation for the amount of redevelopment that is occurring in Renton but cautioned that many of the new businesses are not affordable to low-income residents. She also stated that many of these refugees are business-minded and need support from the local government to help their communities flourish. Councilmember Taylor remarked that Renton offers many opportunities for its diverse community. He noted that the recently adopted City Business Plan calls for connecting people of other cultures to City services. He also pointed out that the City's Small Business Development Center may be of interest to Ms. Abdulle.
