WARREN, City Attorney; Bonnie Walton, City Clerk; ALEX PIETSCH, Community and Economic Development Administrator; GREGG ZIMMERMAN, Public Works Administrator; IWEN WANG, Finance and Information Technology Administrator; CHIP VINCENT, Planning Director; PREETI SHRIDHAR, Communications Director; BATALLION CHIEF ROY GUNSOLUS and EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT DIRECTOR DEBORAH NEEDHAM, Fire & Emergency Services Department; COMMANDER CLARK WILCOX, Police Department. 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. Items noted: #• Work commenced today on a six-week project at Philip Arnold Park to replace the 30-year-old athletic field lights. The ten wood poles and lights will be replaced with steel poles and energy efficient lights, which will reduce electricity usage by 40%. Park crews will not need to change a light bulb until at least 2022. -^ Seattle City Light will hold a public meeting from 7 - 8:30 p.m. on Tuesday, October 5, at McKnight Middle School (1200 Edmonds Ave. NE) to provide information and answer questions regarding the intensive power line clearance work in Renton. To ensure the reliability of our regional electrical system, preserve emergency and maintenance access, and comply with National Energy Reliability Corporation requirements, Seattle City Light crews will clear the power line right-of-way corridor of any structures, trees, or other vegetation. Questions may be directed to Mike Eagan at Seattle City Light by calling 206-615-1691. David Halinen (Fircrest), Renton Shoreline Coalition (RSC) member and attorney for AnMarco, the owners of the old Stoneway site, stated that he has ongoing concerns regarding the proposed Shoreline Master Program (SMP). He remarked that a change in property use, or an expansion of a structure, does not worsen bulkhead-related impacts as long as the existing bulkhead is not expanded. Mr. Halinen also stated that the following two parts of the proposed SMP are prohibited because the 5th Amendment of the United States Constitution prohibits governments from taking private property without just compensation: 1) requiring studies to demonstrate the need for shoreline stabilization structures, and 2) possibly requiring that a bulkhead be eliminated September 27, 2010 Renton City Council Minutes Page 293 Citizen Comment: Baker- Proposed Shoreline Master Program Citizen Comment: Rodabough - Proposed Shoreline Master Program Citizen Comment: Burroughs Proposed Shoreline Master Program Citizen Comment: Simpson - Proposed Shoreline Master Program Citizen Comment: Fix- Proposed Shoreline Master Program Citizen Comment: James - Proposed Shoreline Master Program or replaced with softer stabilization. Concluding, Mr. Halinen read a portion of the Washington Administrative Code (WAC) and noted that it addresses the need for cities to design their SMP regulations to be consistent with all relevant constitutional and legal limitations regarding property rights. He urged Council to vote against adopting the proposed SMP. Laurie Baker (Renton) remarked that the bulkheads are also an issue for single- family homeowners. She stated that the issue of upland development should be decoupled from shoreline stabilization structures, and that other jurisdictions have approved and implemented Shoreline Master Programs that have decoupled these issues. Ms. Baker remarked that the City's proposed SMP is more restrictive than the WAC requires and will inhibit people from developing their properties. She urged Council to vote against adopting the proposed SMP. Samuel Rodabough (Sammamish), attorney for Ramac, Inc., owners of the Riviera Apartments, stated that he stands by his previous remarks that the SMP is not positioned to encourage economic redevelopment. He requested that the following two amendments to the proposed SMP be implemented: 1) a reduction of the uniform 100 foot buffer or setback to 65 feet instead of 75 feet as proposed, and 2) extend the use of the 25% of the buffer or setback for projects that provide public access to projects that provide only community access. Mr. Rodabough also noted that he has found a substantial list of typographical errors and incorrect cross references in the proposed SMP. He urged Council to reconsider the modest changes being requested and allow for corrections prior to approving and codifying the SMP. John Burroughs (Renton) expressed support for the previous speakers. He stated that the proposed SMP is more restrictive than programs from other jurisdictions and than State regulations. He urged Council to vote against adopting the proposed Shoreline Master Program. Anne Simpson (Renton) submitted additional signatures from property owners who support a letter she had submitted previously regarding the proposed SMP. She expressed appreciation for Councilmember Corman's comments made during the prior Committee of the Whole meeting and remarked that she believes he understands the Washington Administrative Code (WAC) as it relates to shoreline stabilization structures. Ms. Simpson stated that it is very clear to her that the intent of the WAC is not to have existing bulkheads removed. She requested that Council investigate how City staff and the Department of Ecology (DOE) could make their interpretation. Monica Fix (Renton) expressed appreciation for Councilmember Corman's earlier comments and stated that she believes there is still too much room for interpretation in the City's draft SMP. She remarked that she does not trust the process and questioned why a geotechnical review would be required if an engineering group has said a structure is okay. Ms. Fix stated that she believes that there is an underlying theme that all bulkheads across the lake need to be removed. She remarked that all citizens are affected by this legislation. Greg James (Snohomish) read a letter to Council from Jeanne DeMund (Renton) outlining her opposition to the adoption of the proposed Shoreline Master Program.
