Audience Comment was invited at this time and Mr. Tom Carrolli inquired regarding the billing received for sidewalk installation. Discussion ensued regarding action of the Street and Alley Committee and whether the billing was .justified, Mr. Carrolli stating that a sidewalk had existed prior to the widening of the road and this was a replace- ment, inquiring of the City Attorney whether he was required to pay twice for an im- provement. City Attorney Shellan noted that payment was not required twice for the same benefit, however if by replacenent,improvement had benefitted the party he would have to pay. The Street Commissio �.r noted- the work included curbing and gutters as well as the new sidewalk and the realignment and grade had been changed and there would have been a 6" drop off if the old sidewalk had been left and that Mr. Carrolli had benefitted from the improvement and had only been billed for the material for the sidewalk and no labor was charged although his broken driveway had been replaced with a new one as well. It was noted that no other owners had objected to the billing and comparison of City charges to t .e ect" s r:3r improvements -in other -Cities -riG .made and Renton's program deemed very much of a bargain to its taxpayers.

No., recalled his request regarding status of City leases and the Council's references to leases on a month to month basis at present, noting he is a taxpayer and is entitled to know the reasons for the action taken on the leases. The next matter he wished to note was information he had received that the new library had a new door installed and was having problems which he thought should be brought up at Council meeting; the $450,000.00 building should not be falling down at this point. Next, he would like to know what action has been taken by Councilman Gianini who was appointed Chairman of the Youth Opportunities Committee, and whether the Committee has met and what has been done. Finally, he wished to inquire what action the Council C,.unmittee ftd.taken regardirrgr his request that the Renton Athletic Commission be investigated, from which he had resigned,and that a new Chairman be named, as he falt the Commission was stagnant as it hadn't done any thing for several months and h, feels it should be working with the Youth Opportunities Commission. Mr. Stredicke asked whether the Council had discussed the matter and if so why he had not been invited down to give his views. Pedersen advised that if Mr. Stredicke had attended all Council meetings he would be fully aware of matters regarding leases as every lease has been brought before the City Council and approved by the Council and the City Attorney has prepared the lease:-dDi ument all if t`l . ii public records on file in the City Clerk's office. Mr. Stredicke advised that his inquiry was made and the matter brought up to see if a report could be made by the Mayor or Property Committee in light of investigations going on in King bounty and Boeing Field he was not saying the City had or did not have leases that were behind or what the rates for leasing should be. He did wonder regarding the Council's interest. in Airport Board actions and leases. Mayor Custer in reply to the lilrz!ry, in,,0r i, advised that he refuses to bring every rumor to the City Council, there being an election and this breeds rumors. He and the Building Director have discussed the rumors and the newspapers having heard commentb- 1,.-,d come in and would have reported but there is no particular problem: -5- Minutes - Renton City Council Meeting 10-23-67 A,�dience Comment (Cont.) 111 .

Mayor Custer noted that with regard to Mr. Stredicke being invited to a Committee of :.ha Whole meeting to discuss his views there has been no request and perhaps f�.r her i:_terest is '-scking. Upon -inquiry Council President Trimm noted that this portion of t:r.. Stredicke's letter of resignation had not been pursued, that they would be meeting on two items tomorrow evening which would take considerable time. City Clerk Nelson reported attendance along with the City Treasurer, Deputy City Clerk G-;an Marshall, Assistant City Treasurer, May Duncalf and Utilities Accountant, Ted ennett, at the Washington St-ace Finance Officers Convention in Yakima which meeting waas very interesting and informative noting new law pertaining to investment of funds wnere $15,000.00 is maximum which can be invested in one particular bank.

Health Center, Seattle- K--'ng County Department of Public Health, reported that survey of area known as L.I.D. No. 256, between Lake Wn. Blvd. and State Highway 4051was conducted, flourescein dye being introduced into household plumbing systems and citizen complaints on sewage problems being investigated and completed on October 24th. Such tests are usually made during the wet season when ground water tables rise and surface runoff is at its maximum, however this investigation, made at the end of one of the driest summers on record, still evidenced sewage discharge on the surface of the ground in about 20% of °-- the residential property surveyed with citizen complaints of septic tank drainfield failures also being verified. The area to the North with like topography and similar soil and drainage conditions has a record of many septic tank overflow problems also. The Seattle-King County Health Department recommended strongly the installation of sanitary sewers at the earliest opportunity for the protection of the health of the community as well as to support orderly development of a public utility in one of the most rapidly growing areas of this State.

Metro paid the match _ng contributions, his Statewide Retirement status having been frozen and retention of funds allowed and Metro is now requesting refund of its share in the sum of $194.56. Since the City has authorized the use of released matching funds for its matching contri- butions this year, no funds have been budgeted and it will be necessary that a Resolution be authorized to appropriate the necessary amount from released matching contributions to be placed into budget account 1920/220, Non-Departmental, Statewide Retirement, for refund to Metro.

Carried. Letter from Gordon Y. Ericksen, submitted Planning Commission recommendations from its public hearing meeting of October 25th as follows: Preliminary Plats: Glencoe (revised Plat of Honeydew Lane), Appl. PP-387-67, property located on the NE corner of S.E. 107th Street and 132nd Avenue S.E., 28.7 acres (115 Lots), existing zoning G-7200, proposed use, Single Family residential, meeting requirements of the Platting Ordinance and Comprehensive Plan. Moved by Schellert, seconded by Poli, to approve the Preliminary Plat as recommended. Carried. Victoria Park No. 7, Appl. PP-429-67, 15.2 acres (57 lots) located between Talbot Road and Benson Road, South of So. 160th Street and Southe4sterly of Talbot Hill Park. Zoni,ig SR-1 proposed for single family residential use, in accord with the Platting Ordinance and the Comprehensive Plan. Moved by Schellert, seconded by Hulse, to concur in approval of the Preliminary Plat as recommended by the Planning Commissfon. Carried. Rezones: George Butko Appl. R-423-67, R-1 to B-1, property located on Sunset Blvd. West between L,7ngston and Stevens Street comprising 6,500 sq. ft, + with existing zoning of R-1 and proposed use Commercial. Comprehensive Plan indicates commercial and multi-family residential. Moved by Hulse, seconded by Schellert, to concur in the rezone. Carried. -2- 1 � MMmntxt?s - Renton City Council Meeting 11-6-67 COMMUNICATIONS: (Cont.) Planning Commission Recommendations: Rezone - Ditler Berg property, Appl. R-425-67, G to R-3, East side of Lake Wn. Blvd. between S.E. 82nd and 84th Avenues, Area comprises 1.3 acres with existing use of single family residence and proposed use, multi-family residential. The Comprehensive Plan indicates low to medium density multi-family residential and the Planning Commission recommended approval. The property was recently annexed from King County at which time it was zoned RM-1800 (medium density multiple family) . Letter read from Curt and Evelyn Agren and Thurely and Hannah Agren, opposed proposed rezoning of the easement road, jointly owned by the Agrens, which ends at the Berg property line,and the R-3 zoning of the property. Upon inquiry as to whether the protest constituted an appeal of the Planning Commission decision, Mr. Agren stated petition submitted by adjacent property owners was mainly in concern for rezone of the road as they would not like the heavy traffic. City Attorney Shellan, upon inquiry, advised that an easement cannot be rezoned, being private property, and should be excluded from any rezone, the City being in no position to rezone a mutual easement. Mrs. Bob Fawcett, 8404 - 106th Avenue S.E. stated the area is single family now using the right to the ingress and egress but if the multiple duplex goes through Lake Wn. Blvd. would have to be used. It was noted that this is not a dedicated street and City minimum width standards would not apply and if an easement runs up� to the property the people would have a legal right to use it9 however, the easement is a private matter and not within the jurisdiction of the City. Planning Commission Member Stredicke suggested a lower density than R-3 be allowed in order that the Planning Commission might retain control over how the property is developed insofar as screening, parking and lay-out are con- cerned. With R-3, access from a public right-of-way is required which would be Lake Wn. Blvd. anyone having use of the easement road as long as an access is provided out to Lake Wn� Blvd. Moved by Schellert, seconded by Gianini, to concur in the Planning Commission recommendation to approve the rezone. The motion carried. Moved by Schellert, seconded by Hulse, that the rezones approved be referred to the Law and Ordinance Committee. Carried. Letter from Richard M. Stredicke, 3916 - 10th Ct. North, submitted observations for the consideration of the Council regarding pending Franchise to Puget Sound Power and Light Company, that 30 years is a long term franchise which terms often cause problems, noting the railroad franchises and tracks now hampering traffic. Attention was called to an Agreement for cost sharing plan for underground wiring whereby the Company would pay 507., concern being expressed for possible increase during the term and resulting cost to the City. It was felt the term of the Agreement should be the same as that in the Franchise, and matter of using rights-of-way at no charge and cancellation provisions were questioned. Moved by Schellert, seconded by Pedersen, that the action on this letter be deferred until later in the meeting at the time the proposed Ordinance comes before the Council. Carried. Letters from Roger E. Polzin, Executive Secretary, State Urban Arterial Board, submitted copies of project agreements filed by Renton to which urban arterial trust funds have been allocated, to be filed for release of the allocation, along with Agenda for the Wn.

Moved by Schellert, seconded by Dahlquist, that Resolution No. 1497 be adopted as read. The motion carried. Proposed Resolution was submitted authorizing appropriation of excess revenues Current Fund, ionto City Clerk's Department Account 1400/402, office supplies in sum of $1,200.00 which account was depleted by purchase of data processing equip e nt. Moved by Poli, seconded by Hulse, that Resolution No. 1498 be adopted as read. The motion carried. Proposed Ordinance was submitted and placed on second and final reading, having been introduced for first reading on October 2nd and held 30 days pending publication for public information. The proposed Ordinance granting unto Puget Sound Power & Light Company, A Corporation, its successors and assigns, the right, privilege, authority and franchise to set, erect, construct and maintain poles and wires, underground cables, together with appurtenances thereto, upon, over, under, along, across the streets, avenues, alleys of the City of Renton for the purpose of transmission, distribution and sales of electric energy, for power, heat and light and for any other purpose or purposes for which electricity may be used. Moved by Pedersen, seconded by Gianini, to adopt the Ordinance as read. Mr. Dick Stredicke called attention to his letter and relationship of the franchise to - keparate letter - agreement for sharing of costs and it was noted that the Franchise Ordinance does not outline extent of participation for cost sharing. He also pointed out that the present Franchise does not expire until July of 1968 and that since new Council Members are going to be on the Council there is no reason to adopt the Ordinance tonight, it being felt that the 30 year period is too long a term, and there being question as to termination or cancellation provisions. Upon inquiry, City Attorney Shellan pointed out the various locations within the ordinance with cancellation clauses and termina- tion rights, noting that it is a non-exclusive franchise subject to revocation- with acquisition rights without allowance for unexpired portion of the franchise. Lengths of various franchises were discussed including a 999 year franchise withthe railroad company and Refuse and Garbage Collection Franchise which is limited by State law to 5 years. Mr. Robert L. Edwards, 12906 - 86th Avenue South,Renton, acknowledged the need for 30 year franchise by the power company to borrow money on low interest rates noting also the power company reasoning that they cannot furnish power as cheaply as thbee Municipal and Public Utility Districts because they have to pay interest in excess of the others. Attention was called to alleged monopoly being operated by Puget Power and with view to future expansion of the area the 30 year Franchise period was deemed to be a mistake, it being noted that the merchants are paying $50,000.00 per year over what would be paid to any- other utility, and that the schools and citizens are also being charged accordingly which costs restrict business competition, the extra savings being utilized therefor in other communities. Mr. Edwards, of Renton Shopping Center, called attention to the new shopping center installation in Tukwila and to a special power rate being offered due to all-electric operations which cannot be utilized by the existing centers, conversion costs being prohibitive. It was urged that the Ordinance be held for an additional 30 days to allow the public further discussion and understabding. Mr. Edwards suggested that other power companies be invited into the area. -5- Jn tes - Renton City Council Meeting 11-6-67 COUNCIL COMMITTEE REPORTS New Business: Cont. Others speaking on the matter were Mr. Leo Lazetti, 247 Garden Street who inquired regarding costs to be charged property owners in regard to underground wiring noting that the power company should bear the costs for going underground. Mr. Otis Brown, 1243 South Morris Avenue inquired as to how designation will be made regarding a corner lot. Mayor Custer advised that it may or may not cost anything depending on City participation and that interpretation of the fee schedule would have to come from the Utility Company. It was noted that the matter before the Council is not the Underground wiring Ordinance but the granting of the 30 year Franchise. Further discussion ensued regarding the 30 year term, Mr. Charles McGarrigle, local manager of Puget Power noting that 30 years is not such a long time recalling that 37 years ago he worked on the very one about to expire. The July 1968 expiration date was noted and Councilman Gianini reported that negotiations between the Company and the City Council Light and Power Committee had commenced last June the matter then going to the Committee of the Whole and Public Relations committee and after meetings and much discussion to the Council and Law and Ordinance Committee for the Ordinance which was accomplished at this time. During discussion inquiry was made regarding public access to related documents and it was noted that the proposed ordinance appeared in the legal publications and copies were available in the office of the City Clerk revisions having been made prior to finalizing and publication. Question was called for on the pending motion and Schellert challenged the Chair ruling appealing decision that call for the question ends debate expressing desire to continue debate it being indicated that other persons wished to speak. Mayor Custer requested voice vote as to whether to continue debate, Pedersen having moved the previous question. The no's prevailed and debate enntinued. Schellert suggested that since the public has expressed concern regarding the term of the franchise perhaps it should be discussed in Committee of the Whole. Hulse proposed motion to reduce the term to 20 years rather than refer back to Committee. Pedersen noted pending motion on the floor to accept the Ordinance as read. Mr: Stredicke felt it would not be unreasonable to table the matter for 30-40 days or 3 monthsto allow the people to further clarify the various points and certainly 30 days more would be of no consequence to the power company. Mr. Edwards urged that the public be allowed an additional 30 days for discussion and an understanding with a view toward more compatible meeting of the minds. Mr. Art Scholes, 15526 - 120th Avenue S.E., urged that the Council not disregard the public but consider its request for delay and consideration of a shorter term with regard to this matter that is of vital importance to everyone. Mr. Bill Grant, candidate for Council position, of 3710 - 10th Ct. North, stated that he was not against Puget Sound Power and Light but was concerned for the citizens of Renton and urged that action be postponed for 30 days, noting that he would be 58 years of age and his son. 30 when the franchise expires. Bill Buzzo, 314 Garden Street, inquired as to benefit of underground wiring if the poles were left for use of the Fire Department and others. Mayor Custer called attention to the fact that the City would be re- placing poles or street lights in event of going underground and that various costs are involved in the project. Moved by Schellert, seconded by Hulse, that the matter be referred to the Committee of the Whole. The Chair rules the ayes to have it. Roll call was requested and resulte as ollows: Aye: Trimm, Hulse, Schellert, Garrett, and Poli. No: Gianini, Pedersen and Delaurenti.

Moved by Hulse, seconded by Schellert, to concur in the recommendation of the Committee of the Whole. Carried.

The platting fees amountto approxi- mately $800.00 and .it was estimated that the, culvert and drainage estimates of cost are between $12,000.00 and $15,000.00 and there is actually no requirement .that a park be dedicated as. noted by .Planning Director Ericksen who added that fill and grading will „ be required but, that much of .the problem..will be alleviated by the culvert and"connection to the existing culvertgoing ,through 'iffany Park #l. Much of the,drainage problem actually comes from:an ar.ea. outside of the city.. .;City. Attorney .Shellan advised that the waiver should be conditional on 1. that the drainage the be. installed. under' the supervision of the:Ci..ty_Engineer and Street Commissioner; 2. any conveyance made shall be by Warranty Deed with title insurance furnished to the Council.

Moved by Delaurenti, seconded by Schellert, to refer the proposed Ordinance to the Law and Ordinance Com- mittee pending proper publication and public hearing on November, 27th. Carried. Audience Comment was invited at this time and Mr. Fred Miller, speaking as taxpayer and a member of a lural fire district questioned the $46,339.48 and $15,000.00 expenditures for fill at the new fire training site, inquiring as to cost of the site and matter of a site having been offered within a few blocks of the present site without cost. Mayor Custer advised that the Council had been asked the same questions at the Committee of the Whole meeting. It was noted that the City had desired to purchase 5.7 acres of property but that the owners would not release the back portion unless the whole parcel was purchased and condemnation would result in even greater cost; the property had been appraised at $10,000.00 to $14,000.00 per acre and we are approaching the $14,000.00 per acre cost.with fill-appraised price does not include fill. The present site was approved by the Survey and Rating Bureau and would bring more advantage to the entire area while the site offered by Mr. Gottstein was felt to be more to the good of the Longacres area and it was felt that the purchase as made was in the best interest of the City and within market price, The Committee had determined that the -fill should be secured now and with the road into the site to be prepared and drainage and water problems the Council has given much thought to the matter before making its determina- tion Mr. Richard Stredict.e noted that when audience comment was made at the public hearing regarding Puget Sound Franchise there was mention that stateruents tzothe Council should have been made earlier prior to the hearing which was being done in this instance, noting in agreement with Mr. Miller that the cost seemed great especially when the free site was within six blocks which difference he did not feel the Survey and Rating Bureau would pick individual lots. Mayor Custer pointed out that the Bureau was shown the other site and suggested aga-i-7-t �t and they suggested another site. Mr. Robinson, 1019 Q Street, inquired whether the $15,000.00 would be enough to complete the fill, and it was reported by Pro Tem President Garrett that it was enough, Mayor Custer adding that the 95¢ delivered price was being extended for the additional fill and it was felt to be in the best interest of the taxpayer to finish the fill now as opposed to waiting and picking it up in the future at possible greater cost, or to use the site with less that, adequate fill. It will depend on the settling but it is felt that filling a foot over the level may result in a few inches excess which can be moved off into the street area, attention being called to the fact that some dirt was received gratis. Mayor Custer advised that the new training site will contribute to raising the City's Fire rating from Class 4 to Class 3. Mr. Roger Burgess of Cascade Vista, Member of Fire District 40 noted that the training tower is a requirement for reclassification,and Mayor Custer added that the tower is a most .important single item, .but-a site is also needed. Tom Teasdale inquired regarding petition for crosswalk at Talbot Road and Grady Way. Street and Alley Committee Chairman Garrett advised that the matter is in Committee, cost of signal installation being investigEted. Petitioners will be advised as soon as study is completedsurvey indicating that few persons use the crossing in its present state. As there was no further business to come before fhe Council, it was moved by Delaurenti, seconded by Hulse, to adjourn. Carried. The meeting was adjourned at 9:20 p.m. There were 28 visitors in the Council Chambers. D. W.

Moved by Garrett, seconded by Hulse, that the Minutes of the previous meeting of November 20, 1967 be approved as prepared by the City Clerk. Councilman Perry requested an addition on Page 3, regarding discussion of waiver of Tiffany Park ##2 Platting Fees and the park area to be acquired in connection with the development, asking that his comments be included "that this was swampland, 7 acres, and it would probably cost as much to fill as the land purchased for the 3rd fire station site, and noting also emission of his inquiry if the Committee had been to the area and taken a look at it, and the reply." He felt it would cost $50,000.00 to $60,000.00 to fill; that they were not aware of the fill needed when the fire station site was purchased and that they should now go through with that, but he questioned the acquisition here when they knew it would be costly to fill. Moved by Schellert, that the minutes be amended to show the fill would cost $60,000.00. The motion died for lack of second. Question was called for on the original motion to approve the minutes which carried with Perry opposing.

This being the date set, the hearing was declared continued. Communication was read from Jack Wilson, City Engineer,recalling that the matter had been continued pending notice from the State Pollution Control Commission relative to possible allocations for L.I.D. 257 p roject9 dependent upon Congress which, however, cut the appropriation for the year in half and funds were not available. If the project had been funded it would have been p-ssible that protests would have been withdrawn, however, at this time, the protests of cost bearing owners stands at 60.5% which is sufficient to defeat the project as it is now established. Problems still exist and the Bellevue Engineering Department has been contacted to discuss possible agreement whereby they would serve the northerly portion of the project and this proposal will be further pursued. Letter from protesting petitioners J. H. Baxter & Co., Reilly Tar & Chemical Corp. , Pan Abode, Inc., and Barbee Mills, Inc. , stated that their combined ownerships total greater than 60% protest and legal counsels have advised that the City is without further jurisdiction to act. They had proposed by letter to Mayor Custer, to construct sewer facilities in the industrial area which they believed would meet the immediate and future needs of industry at no cost to the City and the August 25th missle has not been acted upon at present. Objection was made for the record, to any further hearings and closing of the matter was urged, their offer to construct the facility to be withdrawn by the lst of January if action is not taken by the City thereon, Mayor Custer advised that the offer had been discussed with the City Engineer and the matter turned over to the Sanitation Committee it being felt that the proposal was not satisfactory to the whole area requirement filling only the needs of the industrial portion and like referral of the current. letter was recommended. Moved by Garrett, seconded by Perry, to refer the letter to the Sanitation Committee to report back. she motion carried. Audience comment was invited and Mr. James Denzer, 8653 Lake Wn. Blvd. , one of the original petitioners for the L.I.D-, advised that their request was for a somewhat smaller and although they were not against the businesses being included they do not want to be left with no further recourse as they have tried for a long time to get the sewers. Mr. Gene Brandzell, Attorney representing the business protest, cited RCW 35.43,regarding Council losing jurisdiction after filing of the required protest, and urged consideration of the offer to sewer the business area before it is withdrawn and suggested funeral be held for the dead L.I,D, issue- Upon inquiry as to status of the L.I.D. City Attorney Shellan acknowledged the citation as being correct, qualifying however, that Council's jurisdiction to proceed does not cease if it should determine that a health hazard does exist from reports of the Health Officer and Agencies and the Sanitation Committee has been working on this aspect to find out if such hazard does exist, the Council, however, having had taken no further action since the last meeting. There being a new Sanitation Committee it is doubtful that the study has been completed but the Council could accept the recommendation of the Health T.nspector if so inclined. Otherwise the L.I.D. proceeding dies from malnut-rition. Moved by Delaurenti, seconded by Perry, that the hearing be closed there being no further comments. The motion carried and the hearing was declared closed. Mayor Custer noted that the Committee report will be forthcoming. PUBLIC HEARING: J, David Jensen -- Appeal of Board of Adjustment denial of Variance This being the date set, the hearing was declared open. There being no written communications subsequent to the appeal letter, audience comment was invited. Mr. David Jensen submitted maps and drawings of his property calling attention to his unusual situation in that to plat is impossible since adequate right-of--way cannot be provided to meet the Subdivision Platting Ordinance and maintain minimum lot sizes. The owner of undeveloped property to the South does not wish to develop at this time and therefore additional right of way cannot be secured. Future development of same would provide the required access however, variance was requested at this time to subdivide the land into four lots three of which would have access to 132nd Ave, S.E. via 17 ft. half road with utility easement. Mr. Jensen stated builders were ready to proceed upon approval and that the improvement would be a very desirable asset to the City, the presently undeveloped area being quite unsightly. Nearby developments with like problems were cited and the proposed plan is felt to be the best use for what property they have it being noted that City Ordinance does provide for 2 streets. Mr.. Jensen noted that the Ordinance sets out that the Planning Commission may, =der certa conditions grant a variance for platting of ground or Subdividing of Plats but specific conditions are not set out and the Board of Adjustment felt that perhaps this was a Planning Commission matter because it had to do with subdivision of land, their denial being based upon lack of power governing subdivision of property. Upon inquiry of City Eng:-neer Wilson as to why 17 ft, easement cannot be allowed, Mr, Wilson stated he had not had occasion to rule but that the Ordinance requires 25 ft. a plat needing minimum 50 ft. right of way under normal circumstances, which this was not,however. Mayor Custer pointed out that the Board of Adjustment has to find a hardship exists or the requirements of the Ordinance stand. Traffic problems regarding a 17 ft. road were noted by Perry with Grant noting hardship would be to the property owners. Recalling Board of Adjustment action, Morris inquired regarding Planning Commission thinking on the mater. Planning Director Ericksen recalled Commission action in regard to a rezone with R-1 being determined the -2-- 49 Minutes - Renton City Council Meeting 12-11-67 PUBLIC HEARING: J. David Jensen Appeal (Cont.) best use of the property, only two residences being permitted on an easement access and this proposal is to allow 5 to 6 residential units which would require a variance and thus the referral. Attorney Shellan was asked regarding action which might be taken on the matter and advised that the variance could be granted if the Council in its findings determines that special circumstances exist which do not usually apply to other people in the neighborhood and the circumstances are such that the strict application of the ordinance would interfere with the applicant having reasonable use of the land or building and 4f it is a minimum variance being granted which would not be in general arbitrary or injurious to the neighborhood or the property in question. Upon inquiry Building Director �. Johnson reported that the Board of Adjustment did hear the case very thoroughly and it was felt that this case would set a precedent but that everyone does have the right to appeal. Moved by Shane, seconded by Delaurenti, that the hearing be closed. Carried. The hearing was declared closed and Council action invited. Moved by Shane, seconded by Edwards that the variance be denied.

He . queried as to whether all details had been covered in allowing the decision as submitted. Morris stated there has to be some definite cut off in granting the authority as to how far o-ler the e r,:-.y project, this being the big problem with pressures coming to bear upon the grantor if distance is not specified in the Ordinance upon which determinations can be made.

Mr. Shane felt this was a lot of money to be taken out of the City noting improvements which could make it a Utopia if used locally. He did not see how citizens could be asked to finance L.I.D. 's and other improvements if they pass this and suggested that the City Council or the press show the other side of the coin. Councilman Shane also recommended that the Agenda be revised to allow Audience Comments earlier in the meetin-- and moved that this appear preceding Communications in event a person wished to comment but not stay through the whole meeting.

Interested parties are invited to attend, at 1:30 p.m., Carpenters Hall, 231 Burnett Avenue North. PUBLIC HEARING: Interlake Construction Co. appeal of Planning Commission denial of approval of Preliminary Plat. This being the date set, the hearing was declared open. Letter from Planning Director Ericksen reported that the Planning Commission had considered the Plat on October 25, 1967 holding subsequent meetings for further information and the Plat submitted at the November 22nd public hearing had met the minimum requirements of the City's Sub- division Ordinance. The Commission in discussing the general need for sewers in the upper Kennydale area indicated that all new Plats should have sewers it being noted how- ever,this plat was so located that sewers were not available and were not likely to be for some time in the future. Feeling that the matter of sewer requirements should be brought to the attention of the City Council, the Commission, on this basis, denied the approval. Audience comment was invited and Attorney James Gooding, on behalf of Interlake Construction Company, advised that the land involving approximately 4.3 acres is located on S.E. 100th Street between 108th Avenue S.E. and 112th S.E. and that the matter of sewers had not been an issue heretofore, the line being over a mile away with no present plans for extension to the subject area. Perctests were excellent and there would be no septic tank problems, installations being approved by the Health Department. Possible L.I.D. could be covered by restrictive covenant on deeds of prospective owners of the 14 parcels and Interlake has agreed to install storm drainage and consented to deed certain 25 ft. area as requested Mr. Gooding advised that Inter- lake has some $25,000.00 worth of work in the property and denial for reason of sewers would be unreasonable since the line is over a mile away with no available connection. Mr- Miles Drake, Civil Engineer for the project added that subdivision requirements have been met and the property could i:ot be used if this sewer requirement is to be enforced. Inquiry was aide regarding dry sewering the area until service is available and the Engineer stated this was not probable as a depth for such line and various factors could not be determined and the cost for septic tanks with this would double their cost and then it might not be utilized and was thus not feasible. Moved by Schellert, seconded by Grant:, to close the hearing. Carried.Having the sewer problem before the Council in this method was discussed, City Attcruey Shellan; advising that the Planning Commission must make its decision on the basis of the law and in regard for existing ordinances and that if all subdivision requirements are met action should be taken accordingly.

Moved by Garrett with second by Morris, the matter be referred back to the Planning Commission to resolve the matter of the cul de sac and any others now unresolved.

AUDIENCE COMMENT Mrs- Margaret Evans, 403 Grandey Way, commented that she felt the fake crimes, set up by the Chief of Police in Seattle, were to rouse people so they would notify the police when they see activities that are out of the ordinary or against lawful regulations. Mr, David Gosse, 10203 - 115th Ave. S.E. commented that undue comment by the Council in regard. to items on the agenda was. extending the length of the meetings and did not leave the audience with a good impression; extended bouquet & compliment to Councilman Garrett for the presentation of the City's position on charges to be assessed for use of the King County dump sites, his wife having attended the County Commissioner's public hearing; and, compliment was extended to the Council for making decisions after listening to the public rather than having its decision made no matter what is said.

Ron Tremayne, Renton Auto Glass, 133 Rainier Avenue South, reported that the added new left turn lane has restricted parking and that the movement of traffic in front of the business makes it very hazardous to their customers who must back out or pull out into oncoming traffic and he felt the businesses should have been contacted prior to changing traffic patterns. It was requested that the traffic department give some assistance in regard to getting customers in and out of their property safely. Traffic Er:o5_neer Bennett advised that the project was publicized over the past six months and that the curb lane which is now being utilized does not restrict access but does restrict the on street parking. Moved by Perry, seconded by Schellert, to refer the matter to the Street and Alley Committee for recommendation. Councilman Shane inquired regarding the right to use the full street width and City Attorney Shellan advised that the City has the right to improve to the full width for benefit of the public; that private property encroaches without cost and when the City finally makes improvements and uses its full right-of-way sometimes the property owners are disappointed, but Supreme Court ruling having judged that access from one way only is required. It was noted that the grade changes could constitute problems but not full use of the right-of-way; that Mr. Tremayne is the lessee of the subject property and that the new traffic pattern on Rainier has alleviated accidents, this being one of the worst areas having had 2702 accidents thereon. Councilman Garrett requested that the Traffic Engineer meet him at Renton Auto glass in the morning.

There being no written communications, audience comment was invited and Mr, Mike Rathbun,Mgr., P.B.R. Sign Company and 111r. Bill Wood, Engineer for Mobil Oil Company, spoke on behalf of Mobil Oil Corpor ion stating hardship exists since the present sign is obstructed by the various poles and objects in the area and cannot be readily seen from the freeway, &nd tho businesses depend upon the freeway trade with up to 30-35% revenue being lost L; restriction of the advertising media , Photographs of the subject sign and others in the vicinity were circulated and projection up,.�.7ards to 50-53 ft. height w-s felt to re,.a6r:^ an&c'ee ir_� ., 67 f±. was the height originally requested. Discussion ensued regarding speed of the passing motorist and possible danger to attempt to get to the off ramp and back to the station and distance of visibility required in order -1- Minutes - Renton City Council Meeting 2-26-68 PUBLIC HEARING: Appeal of Mobil Oil Corporation to sign variance denial (Cont.) to exit properly and safely.In:comparing other signs,it was noted that the Board of Adjustment had not been in operation when the other signs were installed, and with specific reference to one which appeared above the limit, Building Director Johnson stated it to be within the 40 ft. allowed in this area and that in the Mobil Oil case the Board of Adjustment could justify no hardship. After further discussion regarding recommended height of signs and regulations of other Cities, it was moved by Morris, seconded by Perry, that the hearing be closed. Carried. Moved by Morris, seconded by Shane, to concur in the Board of Adjustment denial, refusing the request for variance . Carried. The Building Director was requested to investigate the sign questioned for possible violation. PUBLIC HEARING: Appeal by Albert Balch of Board of Adjustment of variance to exceed Height limit n6 R-4 zone; property located in vicinity of Bronson Way North, 4th Avenue North and 3rd Avenue Extension This being the date set, the hearing was declared open. Letter from Planning Director Ericksen reported review of the matter by the Planning Commission,upon referral by the Board of Adjustment,and return to the Board with notice that study of height limits under present zoning ordinances would be initiated for possible amendments to provide for high rise type structures in Renton. Prior letter from the Commission to the Board advised that upon completion of review the Commission had no objections to the multi-storied buildings on the site with suggestions that variances be granted for each building as required with setbacks to be provided as recommended. Mr. Balch's letter of appeal was read requesting the Council to consider the appeal and outlining prior actions taken which included FAA approval for construction of 10 to 14 story high rise apartments on the subject property which Mr. -Balch feels is ideally situated for the apartments and condominiums desired. It was noted that a hardship must be established in order for the Board of Adjustment to take affirmative action on variances. Audience comment was invited and Mr. Balch, 6850 - 50th Ave. N.E. , Seattle, advased that to date all Boards, Departments and parties concerned expressed approval of the proiect and urged expediate action but the meetings continue with no consumation. The present six stories and 90 ft. limit were felt to be not in keeping with the growth and development of the present community and it was urged that Renton commence updating to present trends. Hardship noted was that it is more economical to build the type of structure high rise allows and that lending institutions have reached maximum loans for the lower income type housing. Mr. Balch wished to build structures that would serve the upper income families which he feels is needed in Renton, and any further extension of time would possibly cause difficulty in securing the building loan. It was felt the buildings would enhance the City and add somewhat to the City's valuation, the apartments to cost to 11- million dollars. Mr. Don Johnson, associate of Mr. Balch in the project, added that no objections have been expressed to the height and that it was a matter of the Commission completing a study of advisable high rise structures, but it was felt that this was not a proper delay and that the time to commence was now as costs will increase with passing time . Mrs. Margaret Evans, 403,G'r1ndey Way expressed concern for the density to result from the 140 ft. structure in regard for the traffic urging that the roadway be enlarged to accommodate the vehicles and prevent additional danger to the motorists in this area. Richard Stredi_cke, 3916 - 10th Ct. No. urged the Council to compare other construction now in progress on the City Hall building and allow the private individual like benefit. Moved by Garrett, seconded by Barei, that the hearing be closed. Carried. So declared. Moved by Grant, seconded by Bruce, the variance be granted on height of the 3 buildings.After noting need for additional lanes from the church Gn and Mrs. McGerry stating motorists at the Group Health site leave those premises through the entrance road and causing traffic problems, the pending motion carried. It was subsequently moved by Schellert, seconded by Perry, that the reconstruction of the road and design -of 'same at problem areas be referred to the Street and Alley Committee. Carried. Mayor Custer announced that Councilman Grant was the father of a new baby boy and Councilman Grant stated the new Council has not been altogether unproductive. COMMUNICATIONS: City Clerk Nelson reported approval letter from the Boundary Review Board has been received in regard to annexation of property in vicinity of the new Valley General Hospital , said property lying South of 180th at Springbrook Road. (Talbot Road) Moved by Schellert, seconded by Bruce, that March 11, 1968 be set for public hearing on the proposed annexation. Carried.

Letter from Planning Director Ericksen, reported review of the Preliminary Plat of Rolling Hills Village No. 4 by the Planning Commission at meetings of January 14th and February 14th and applicant has requested variance in lot width requirement on Lots 41 through 46 to 67.5 ft. at the building line and lots 32 through 37, 72 ft. at the building line, rather than the 75 ft. The Commission felt the request was justified on the basis of hardship due to existing gas, power and telephone easement passing through the plat and the lots varying from 128 ft. to 155 ft. in depth would more than meet minimum lot size of 7500 sq. ft. required. Easement areas will be incorporated into a landscaped blvd. and private park and green area. Approval of the Plat was recommended. Moved by Schellert, seconded by Bruce, to concur in the Planning Commission recommendation. Moved by Shane, second by Barei, to approve the Plat but not lot size reduction in concern for future residents of the area. Mr. Robert Scholes, Engineer for the project,outlined difficulties in platting the area which had required much redesigning and although part of the park area might be utilized to wider, them-,lots as, shown oth design proposed was felt to be the best solution to the problem of the best functional use of the land. After discussion concerning the design of the structures in relation to utility and easement restrictions, the vote was taken on the pending motion to approve the plat with 75 minimum lot size and dissenting voice vote brought request for roll call vote which resulted as follows: Aye: Perry, Maxin, Bruce, Grant, Shane, and Barei.

Mr. Al Osmond, 222 Meadow Street, noting copious amount of paper accumulated in the Households of today, cited the smoke from burning same to be negligent compared to that put into the air by industry and automobiles and favoring some type of incinerator, inquired why burning is prohibited.

Councilman Schellert recalled that the matter has been referred to the Ways and Means Committee, and noted that payments collected for the tax are paid to the City quarterly and the final quarter tax would not be received until January 1969 and would appear in that budget,unless the tax is eliminated prior to the 3rd quarter of the year.

Councilman Schellert announced a meeting of the Ways and Means Committee on Monday, March 25th at 4:30 p.m., in the City Clerk's office. Councilman Morris inquired when the garbage contract bid specifications will be sent out and Ted Bennett, Utility Accountant, advised they would be sent out tomorrow but some items would need to be filled in before they are sent out.

It was noted that at present the City Engineer is assuming duties of the Utility Superin- tendent and that the blank has not been completed regarding the franchise fee.

Carried. -1- Minutes - Kenton City Council Meeting (Cont.) 3/25/68 PUBLIC HEARING: Thomas J., Hogan appeal of Planning Commission denial of rezone from G7200 to R-3; property located onll4th Ave. SSE. between 12th Avenue North and north Renton Interchange, This being the date set, the hearing was declared open. Petition containing 56 signatures was read protesting the R--3 rezone for reasons of increased traffic and pc:;::.ing problems with regard to ingress, egress and da..ger to children of the area, new single family residences being purchased with thought that the Interchange would be a natural barrier or buffer from another type zoning, noting denial of the same type reqLest on property immediately across the street to prevent spreading into the single family residential privacy. It was requested that the Council uphold the Planning Commission decision, Letter from the Planning Director outlined actions taken by the Planning Commission in its denial of the rescne, ruting that the revised Comprehensive Plan indicates single family re-sid ential use for this area, the present Plan showing multi-family residential, medium density, and that the Commission had visited the area and upon completion of its review felt the area is a good single family residential area and development otherwise would be detrimental on adjacent. and surrounding properties. R-1 was recommende-d as the highest zoning on the subject property. Audience comment was invited and Mr , Ernest Coleman,1.0208'S,<E. 88th for the re ene, called attention to changes effected by the North Renton Interchange;principally to access and lesser use of 114th which the development would not contribute as great a traffic•.1.1oc.7 L,^. previous .to the Interchange. Attention was called to the surrounding and adjacent R-3 and B-1 zonings and B-1 was not felt to be the best use nor would it upgrade the property to the extent proposed. Mr. Carl Ericksen, Homeland Realty Co., agent selling the subject property, called attention to the objections of access noting petitioners did not reside in the vicinity and future access provisions to be available upon implementation of the Capital Improve- ment arterial program now to be effected with the passage of Forward Thrust.Haxdship was noted that the property value is approximately $4,000.00 if developed for single family residences and with the multiple zoning a sale is available at $30,000.00. A deluxe 24- unit fac. 1`7y.. with. '"a swimming pool, and tennis court is planned. Letters were read from Wn. Mutual Savings Bank, denying financing for two single family residences due to the proximity of the North Renton :interchange and current zoning to the East and adjoining, being R-3 and Business, it was stated in their opinion the property is not suitable for single family residences, and was signed by F. A. Vernon, Asst Vice-Pres and Mgr, Second letter from Citizens Fea.eral Savings & Loan Assn., Sam W. Cayce, Mgr. advised that based on discussion with the real estate appraiser, it was concluded under the fair market value that the subject property would be at its highest and best use multiple residence. It was noted that a member of the Commission had said R-3 would be a good use. Further audience comment was invited and Mr. and Mrs . Fred Wendling, 11419 S'E' 112th noted that with proposed access development the property was not very large to contain all the propo�­,ed facil=ties contemplated and also that grade school children use this right of way to go to school; Mrs. McCollon,!, and Mrs. Ferris adding that hese very small children do not watch for traffic and that the grade is very steep. Mr. Robert Secrest noted that signatures of persons noted to be from some distance were also owners of property in the vicinity, Mr. Roger Duke noting no recollection of Planning Commissioners statement that R-3 would be a good use, and that the reason they didrl�t- put in the single family units was lack of access to the back. Upon request, Planning Director Ericksen presented slide photographs of the area and adjacent properties Moved by Delaurenti, seconded by Perry, that the hearing be closed. Carried, Moved by Perry, seconded by Maxin, to uphold the Planning Commission recommendation and that the appeal be denied Carried.

The matter of the specifications for the proposed garbage collection contract had been -.,.cher consideration at a meeting of the Committee of the :Thole earlier and at the time of adjournment a. motion was pending to add 5% Franchise Fee requirement to the present specifications, and this matter is still pending. Property Committee Chairman Barei reported Committee request that the Council convey a Q,Ait Claim Deed for the Renton Hill water tank site to adjacent property owner, Mario Tonda, for $2,200000 (the appraised price) and refer the matter to the Law and Ordinance Committee for Resolution and to the Aiayor, City Clerk and City Attorney for necessary legal documents and signatures.

The Property Com-aittee recommended that the price of the City' s interest in 91st Avenue So�ith b. established at $2,250.00 and for South 128th Street at $6,250.00, respectively. This ;muter was referred in connection with petitions for vacation of the right-of-ways and the price represents =4 of the fair market value of the property. The City is to retain all existing utility easements. Moved by Schellert, seconded by Shane, to concur. The motion carried. Move(i by Barei, seconded by Shane, that the matter of the garbage collection specifications ? e taken from the Committee of the ?thole and placed on the floor for discussion at this time. Carried. lioved by Morris, seconded by Schellert, that the bid specifications retain the 5% Franchise Fee provision as carried in the present franchise. Discussion ensued wherein Councilman Shane objected to the charge to a business for operating in the City likening the fee to the 3% Utility Tax which he did not feel should be imposed. Councilman Barei urged that the '-% fee be eliminated and that the City impose the fee by Ordinance if it wishes to tax the operation increasing the collection rate a certain amount over bid price, passing the cost on to the consumer, but getting a better bid price than if a contractor has to consider a 5% cost factor in figuring his bid. Upon inquiry by Perry, Utility Accountant Ted Bennet advised that the 5% is paid to the City by the Contractor on his gross collections and also that the rate for 2-can pick up is $1.75 per month while the Contractor' s charge is $1.38 so the City receives 37G per month for each account. Councilman Garrett called attention to other franchises which have been granted noting that the Franchise Fee grants privilege of exclusive right to certain revenues in the City and if the bid is advertised with no fee than exclusive right to collect in the City is being T.he rate of how much more or less to charge than the bid price to the people;to be set after the bid award, being a different matter. Morris noted the fee is budgeted and additional funds will need to be provided if `.he.; 5`% is eliminated. Shane noted additional funds the tax increases of Forward Thrust will provide and felt excess revenue would cover the deficit. Upon inquiry City Attorney Shellan advised the Franchise Fee, if set at a 5 year period could not be waived later on. The specifications might state a lesser period than 5 years but the Contractor is entitled to know: what taxes he is to pa;T and his bid will be high enough to cover all such contingencies. After further discussion and note by Schellert that it has been a normal procedure for cities to derive revenues from franchises for privileged business and that everyone subscribing thus pays a portion and that financing of city operation solely by property tax is not a good method as the newer Counc4.lmen will find at budget ti=. Shane felt it should be tried this time and that removal of all basic business license fees be considered., Question was called for on the pending motion and dissenting voice vote resulted with roll call being properly requested and taken as follows: Ay - Garrett, Norris, Schellert, Trimm, i;dwards and Iiaxin. No-, Delaurenti, Perry, i3,uce, Shane and Barei. The Chairs ruling that the ayes had it was confirmed and the -_^tioa to include the 5% Franchise Fee in the specifications for bid call carried. i 6 214 Linutes - Renton City Council Iieeting (Cont.) 3-25-600 COUNCIL COiI.IITTi c.

Nelson, Supt. of Lighting, City of Seattle, Dept. of Lighting, directed. to the Mayor, acknowledged letter from Mayor Custer to Mayor Braman and outlined events leading 'to a Franchise request;advising regarding aspects of :inquiry. Mayor Custer requested that the letter be given to the Council President, the Council having referred this matter to the Mayor previously, to pursue by correspondence. Letter from Board of King County Commissioners acknowledged receipt of City of Renton Resolution 1531 regarding stadium location and advised that copy had been directed to the Wn. State Stadium Commission. , Letter from the Dept. of Commerce and Economic Development noted economic effects of Barbee Mills, Inc., J. H. Baxter Co., and Reilly Tar and Chemical Corp. in Renton and calling attention to responsibility of the Department to involve itself in helping local industry, cautioned that any alteration in the Comprehensive P1-an to change said properties to recreational areas would zone out of business three very fine firms since waterfront industrial property for relocation is not likely available. It was noted that 700 employees are supported within the firms with 7.1 million dollars being generated by their operation and proposed action by the City is felt to be one that the City and State could ill afford. This letter, along with others received, will be presented April 29th at the Public Hearing meeting of the Council- on the Comprehen sive Plan. Letter from Mr. Bruce T. Hulse'recalled Renton Ministerial Association letter urging open housing legislation by the Council, and pointed out that the East Valley Health, Welfare and Recreation Study Committee in its report to the Council of Planning Affiliates, U.G.N., urges that "the valley communities make known an open housing stance with regard to race, color and creed - - " . It was suggested the Planning De- partment of the City secure a copy of this report. Councilman Perry- submitted proposed Resolution, as adopted by the Puget Sound Govern- mental Conference, providing for equal opportunities in housing, employment, education, public accommodations and public facilities without regard to race, creed, color, national origin or ancestry, and moved that the document be referred to the Law and Ordinance Committee for proper wording and form. The motion was seconded by Grant and carried. Councilman Shane urged that any open housing ordinance proposing penalty for act of discrimination also carry penalty for double jeopardy against the accuser in event. defendant is found not guilty, and inquired of City Attorney Shellan if such recourse is possible. City Attorney Shcll.an advised such rights are available at present through Civil action, any person who can show malice can proceed against -the other person, and Mr. Shane's inquiry may be a matter of philosophy, all rights being qualified and not absolute, rather than legal. -3- 195 Minutes - Renton City Council Meeting 4-22-68 AUDIENCE COMMENT: Mrs. Kenneth Karinen addressed remarks regarding open housing to the Council conveying the fact that the church does get involved in spite of Mr. Wray's comment last week,as a member of St. Anthony's Roman Catholic Church, to the contrary: Mr. Tom Teasdale, 506 - 11-th Ave. So., called attention to the number of acci- dents on the new freeway, noting another last week at specific location where cars jump the freeway and land on Talbot road below. It was urged that the State be contacted to work with the problem. Mayor Custer advised that there was question regarding super elevation in relationship .to the. speeds and that meetings have been held with City and Highway officials and the speed limit had been lowered in the subject areas, however, much .of the problem was due to negligence of drivers. He will pursue the issue at subsequent meeting next week noting need for immediate action if deemed advisable. It was suggested that perhaps the barricade at the hazardous points could be made • higher. to keep the cars on the freeway, attention being called to the "S" curve above Talbot & Benson roads which it is anticipated will cause some future problems if precautionary measures are not taken now. Moved by Schellert, seconded by Perry, to refer this matter of traffic safety to the Street and Alley Committee for recommendation. Carried. Mr. Bruce Hulse, 1.1422 S.E. 93rd Street,expressed delight at commencement of the Lake Wn. beach Park development and commended the Park Department on the work it has done in securing the grants. Mr. Hulse also commented that the City Council meeting attendees 4iould soon be able to enjoy the new city hall environment. Rev. Dick Christianson, 1.1325 S.E. 168th Street, and Rev. Duane Emberg, spoke in regard to local aspects of discrimination and urged early action on the proposed Open Housing Ordinance, noting that Renton should not wait until Ghetto's do develop, but in view of the agony of our times, to simply do what is right and act now. Mr. Frank Storey noted that the Supreme Court ruling has substantiated that any conditions on deeds conveying property cannot be upheld and that this has been in effect for quite some time . Law and Ordinance Committee Chairman Trimm reported that the Committee had met in regard to the Open Housing legislation and letter has been written for copies of the Federal legislation passed on the matter. Letter from the City Attorney was submitted for reading. Grant inquired, as originator of the Ordinance proposal, regarding the meetings which were held, expressing his desire to be in attendance. . It was noted that the Committee meets on Mondays at 7:00 p.m. or 7:30 p.m. in the -City Clerk's office to consider all legislative documents to be presented to the Council. City Attorney Shellan's letter was read noting the proposed Open Housing Ordinance to be a copy of the Seattle document. Opinion was rendered that: an agency or—committee other than the legislative body act as hearing or quasi-judicial body for hearing complaints, holding hearings and taking testimony, some question existing in regard to Section 4(4) in pursuing an unfair practice it was felt such independent body should be empowered to bring any matters of this type to Court or sign a complaint as in event of violation of any City Ordinance which matter is then heard in the Municipal Court. Time element for making of decisions by hearing panel was deemed advisable and empowering of the City Clerk to administer oaths to any witness or party to the action. Inconsistency in definitions, Section 1 and exclusion in Section 6 (1) was noted and it was felt that no emergency clause is needed since the City does not have the problem that Seattle, under its charter provision has, our Ordinance when adopted becoming effective upon publication, unless otherwise determined by the Council. It was stated by the City Attorney that with proposals as outlined such an Ordinance would not only be legally proper but certainly morally right and should be duly considered. Attention was called to the fact that if an independent agency is created some budgetary appropriation will be needed to allow it to function. Upon inquiry regarding Committee action on the legislation, the Committee Chairman stated that if an answer is received from the Federal Governmcnt the matter would be discussed at the next Committee meeting. City Attorney Shellan noted that the document was presented last week and that a number of important determinations in regard to enforcement must be made and suggested that the Council and not just the Committee supply the missing links needed to prepare the Ordinance to provide for proper enforcement. It was recalled that the Law and Ordinance Committee had been directed to report to the Committee of the Whole.

The motion was seconded by Perry. Schellert noted that once adopted the Charter cannot be changed for six years and suggested that the City instead give the Non-Charter Code City a try and then .if this is not within the needs for City operation than go to a Charter City. It was noted in further discussion by Garrett, that the Optional Municipal Code must go through the Legislature again and revisions and amendments will undoubtedly be made prior to its finaladoption,during the next session of the Legislature and the Council may have to rescind its action by setting a definite date .

Parks & Sons, Pocatello, Idaho, Valley Disposal, Renton, Wn. , and General Disposal Co. , Seattle. (See attached bid exhibits) Letter from Mr. Melvin Parks was read requesting the Council to allow him to withdraw his bid and bond on Collection of Garbage and Refuse for Renton as he had misunderstood terms and conditions of the bid call and lacked certain specific information with reference to existing commercial containers. Sanitation Committee report was read recommending acceptance of low Alternate No. 2 Bid of the Valley Disposal Company with referral to the City Attorney for preparation of the necessary Contract documents and to the Mayor and City Clerk for execution of same. Recommended further that the bid prices as con- tained in the successful bid of Valley Disposal be adopted as the City rate, except that the actual price be set at the next higher 4 amount where rate is not rounded off. Recommended bid bond be returned to Parks & Sons, in acceptance of his bid withdrawal. Moved by Perry, seconded by Shane, to concur in the recommendations of the Sanitation Committee. Councilman Schel- lert expressed dismay and dissatifaction with the bid prices and requested further clarification of the reasons the apparent low bidder withdrew his bid. Councilman Shane outlined actions to date on bid call noting that with the time available since the new Sanitation Committee was elected, all was done that was possible and he felt the Committee had done the best it could with time available and material furnished. It was noted that 11 bids specs were picked up and only 3 bids submitted, Shane stating that the bids were con- sidered and recommendation submitted for Council action, dome bids were higher of Parks & Sons and Some of Valley Disposal's were high but Mr. . . Parks was under the impression in reading the specs that certain things were to be assumed and by human error -found otherwise and decided he could not meet the bid prices quoted. After further discussion regarding the effect on the present budget that the bid award would have,since the total amount now goes to the Contractor,who will be doing the billing and collecting, a portion of which heretofore has been budgeted in the Current Operating Fund along with a Franchise Fee having been in effect, the pending motion carried. It was noted that some $70,000.00 - $80,000.00 reduction will result in City revenue and it was. moved by Schellert, seconded by Bruce, to refer this matter to the Ways and Means Committee . Carried. M-ved by Por.ry, seconded by Delaurenti, to refer the bid award matter to the Law and Ordinance Committee for proper Ordinance . Carried.

Jacobs, C. K. Mullins, F.E. Lawrence and David S . Haddad. The Commission felt that after restudy and field trip to subject areas the requested changes could not be recommended at this time. In review of the request of Mr. Emmett H. Kindle, it was recommended that the area remain single family residential_, the area being predominately this zoning with new homes now being constructed and access to the property in question being through a single family residential neighborhood. Moved by Perry, seconded by Edwards, that the matter of the Green Belt :area be considered first. Carried. Mayor Custer called attention to copies of the Comprehensive Plan Outline and Proposed Revisions distributed to everyone and noted that the purpose of this meeting is to hear from the public and Council. may or may not make any decision. Purpose of the Plan, General Development Objectives and Elements of the Plan were enumerated and it was noted that the Council_ may change any part of the 3 phases under the law. Audience comment was invited.Mr. Start Delong, 6406 - 60th Place So., Seattle inquired whether zoning will be affected by the Comprehensive Plan and was advised by Mayor Custer that no zoning will be changed per se tonight but that zoning re- visions are considered upon proper application and not without Public notice . Mr. James C . Hanken, Attorney, on behalf of J. Fi. Baxter Company and related industri.es,objected to proposed designation of the industrial properties as Green Belt and Park and Recreation areas citing same to be a matter of elimina- tion rather than relocation,the unique characteristics of the subject property being crucial to the operation and unavailable elsewhere in the area, and this basically being local industry. It was requested that the present Comprehensive Plan be modified to allow Heavy Industrial. use in the areas involved which is the -nature of the operation at present. It was pointed out that the present propos«1 as recreation site was speculative in nature since funds for acquisi- tion were not presently available andthat financing for expansion will be difficult and property values limited if Park use is designated. Also, the present leaves much to be desired as legal proposition and protectiveposition for the City. 202 Minutes - Renton City Council Meeting 4/29/68 PUBLIC HEARING: (Cont.) COMPREHENSIVE PLAN Richard Stredicke, 3916 - 30th Ct. No. , Renton, noting per Easel Map,that property of Barbee Mill, Kennydale Beach and Lake Wn. Beach is designated for Park purposes now and could be condemned at- present if funds were available for acquisition and in order to receive funds the City has to have some planning and this Plan is- a beginning for a means to apply for federal funds, the present plan being in effect for some 5 years now needs updating and adopting the new plan will not cut ;jobs, or change zoning nor affect any of the persons present this evening. Mrs. David Martin, 8609 Lake Wn. Blvd. stated the people felt this was a question of confiscating property and they did not feel they could improve or utilize the property with the stigma of Green Belt on their properties. Mr. George Cassaday, Al Horat, Herman Shelton, representatives of protesting Industries and other objectors including Stuart Neill, Puget Sound Power & Light Co. Vice-President, Kay Johnson, representing Chamber of Commerce of Renton, and citizens, Donald Savoy, Wayne Goddard and David Martin, spoke on the matter ex- pressing concern of being "zoned" out of business, industry being as important to the community and tax base as recreation areas; not restricting development or utilization of natural resources; possible lowering of property values and in regard for employees working in the industries, supporting the communications. Mr. Larry Gibson noted that property values are based on per ft. price and that in the coming years the costs would raise accordingly and he did not feel the designation on the Comprehensive Plan will decrease property values. Dr. Baird Bardarson, 320 Renton Avenue, in support of the recreation proposal,felt there would be a great need for this type of facility in 15 years, and Mr. Bruce Hulse pointed out that the Comprehensive Plan is long range projection and no immediate removal from tax rolls would result but since 20 years from now the businesses may now be operating the same as now and the recreation designation was show so if the industries should discontinue present operations the area could then be utilized for recreation purposes rather than other industrial use, attention being called to the number of parks which have been added to the City over the past five years. Moved by Shane, seconded by Bruce, to reces's for ten minutes. The motion carried. After the recess, roll call was taken with all Councilmen present as previously listed. Planning Director Ericksen presented slides of maps and drawings of the Comprehen- sive Plan now existing and proposed, outlining the proposed revisions,noting pre- dicted 750,000 persons coming into the area in the future,the _impact of some now being felt. The updating of the. Land Use Map between'63.and'67 constituted basic changes effected in the General Development Plan, the Community Facilities Plan and Arterials and Streets, being updated and problem of interpretation being re- solved by extensions or cut-back as deemed necessary. Each of the 3 elements of the Plan were exhibited and proposals outlined and compared to existing Plan, after which audience comment was again invited. Planning Commission Chairman Dayle Garrison affirmed the Commissions intent to update the existing plan and in view of the need for water oriented property established this as a guide to be used for the next 20 years and that something should be done with regard to establishing potential properties that might be acquired ata future date. Moved by Shane, seconded by Delaurenti, that Council-disaffirm the recornmendation of the Planning Commission with regard to area West of Lake Wn. Blvd. between Lake Wn. Beach Park and S.E . 95th St., which was proposed recreation use. The area is presently indicated as multi-family residential (low density) . Discussion ensued regarding timeliness of the city's declaration of intent since funds are not now available and advisability of developing its presently owned sites, effect of the motion upon tho—City securing securing Forward Thrust moneys now available and problem of interpretation to remain. Also,fte Foss property will have changed and the Barbee Mill site will not have changed.. After further expression of concern for the property owners and employees of the industries concerned, the pending motion was voted upon and carried. It was noted that the area is not a Green Belt on the Comprehensive Plan. -3- 20 Minutes - Renton City Council Meeting 4--29-68 PUBLIC HEARING: (Comprehensive Plan, cont.) Attorney Hanken expressed hope that the North portion of the area under discussion might be designated Heavy Industrial. Moved by Barei, seconded by Edwards that the area North of the Kennydale Beach area be shown on the Comprehensive Plan as Heavy Industrial. Upon dissenting voice vote, roll call votq was requested and was taken as follows: Aye: Morris, Delaurenti, Edwards, Bruce, Shane and Barei. No: ' Garrett, Schellert, Perry, Trimm, Maxin, and Grant. The mayor voted no and the motion lost. Moved by Schellert, seconded by Delaurenti, that the matter of designation of the property which was subiect of the prior motion, be referred to the Committee of the Whole. The motion carried. The proposal of Petitioners for designation of Hospital District #1 properties in the Highlands for Park and Recreation purposes was presented by Norman Ross, 420 I Street who noted that ten years ago the taxpayers purchased the property at approximate cost of $30,000.00 to be used by the Hospital District and it was now felt the property should remain in the hands of the people and not be used to sup- port the hospital District in King County. The petition signed by over 1.100 persons, . requested development of the property for primarily a 9 hole,Par 3 golf course and park purposes and purchase and development of the property which has been surplus-6 by the Hospital District was urged. Mr. Archie Graham, 408 I Street calling atten- tion to the need for parks as discussed earlier in the evening noted that this par- cel proposed for park use contains 17 acres and that the petitioners are fully behind any action to further the proposal. Dick Stredicke added that this is the last large area of ground undeveloped in the vicinity and heretofore there was not much interest expressed nor support given to its development during Planning Com- mission discussion, but with the new growth of the community and anticipated even larger population increase, it was felt that the additional park facilities are needed and now is the time for action. Larry Gibson recalled bond issue of 1964 for Parks and lack of interest at the time or lack of being informed which re- sulted in its failure and it was felt that in the time since with updating and growth within the community that time should be taken now for subsequent action on the matter. Upon inquiry Planning Director Ericksen advised that the area is designated Medium Density Multiple Use on the existing plan and had been proposed as location for a school or administration building for the school district, how- ever, the school district is no longer interested. The Commission had recommended R-3 RSR-4 but the matter was referred to the Planning Committee of the Council in February when the Park Board had expressed interest for Park use, the Revised Plan having been referred to Committee of the Whole in September, 1967. Moved by Schel- lert seconded by 'Perry, that designation ofthe subject property on-the Compre- hensive Plan; including the Land Use and Community Facilities elements, be Park Use. The motion carried. Moved by Perry, seconded by Shane, that the matter of City acquisition of this property be referred to the Property Committee. The motion was withdrawn when it was noted the subject of this action was not within the specific limit of the purpose of the spec--'al meeting. Moved by Shane seconded by Edwards to adjourn. The motion lost. Audience comment was invited with regard to requested zoning changes and Mr. S.C. Iffert, 820 Lakeside Dr., Seattle, noted his vested interest in property South of Sunset Highway, #5 on the Revisions proposed, and calling attention to widening of Sunset to 4 lanes with a 5th turn around lane, and zoning of adjacent and nearby properties, requested revision to prior zoning rather than SR-1 which he did not feel was proper lying right next to a* fast highway nor would lending institutions provide money for such use . Mrs. Josephine Peterson, 1458 Hillcrest Lane, urged the Council to consider 4�1., proposed revision of the F. E. Lawrence property, in the Kennydalc Area, l'rnnr Multi. Family Residential, Medium Density to Single Family Residential. which in view of its location in-relation to the mainline road from Boeing and in concern for adja- cent and surrounding uses, urged that it be designated either Business or remain Multiple Use, not lending itself to single family use . Lennis Hutchens, 15614 - 106th Ave. S.E., requested consideration of Item 18 on the Proposed Revisions, in the Rolling Hills area between the Thunderhil:l Apart- ment and TransAmerica development on the other side. Some 20 acres of land in this strip formerly designated multiple-family residential, (medium density), are now proposed a single family residential and it was requested in fairness to the property owners now being enclosed by multiple developments, that the area be al- lowed R-3,remaining as it was, the land value otherwise to go down and owners to be squeezed out of possible benefits,l.oss of view and land some of which was acquired as early as 1929. --4- 204 Minutes - Special Meeting of City Council 4-29-68 PUBLIC HEARING: (Cont.) Comprehensive Plan Audience comments continued with F. E. Lawrence urging reconsideration of Item 41 to B-1 or retain Multiple zoning as shown on the existing plan, Mrs . Pederson adding that owners are anxious to develop the property and with Business on the ad-iacent corner and apartments nearby it did not seem logical to change this to Single Family Residential. Mr. Jim Dalpay, 13033 Sunset Blvd. E ., requested that Item #5 be set aside until he and Mr. Iffert and the Council could discuss the property. Mr.. Koo n , representing Stoneway Concrete, Inc. requested that the area adjacent to Monterey Terrace and the area South and East of Monterey Terrace be designated Light Industrial Zoning as in the past. Future use of the property outlined the sand and gravel operation to be removed by September and anticipation of possible interest on basis of present L-1 use which is on adjacent properties at:present also. Mr. Dean Singer,1915 Monterey-Drive, called attention to proposed revision 413 noting that business areas usually are backed by Multiple Residential and some buffer rather than directly abutting Single Family Residential areas and with many of the City's better homes located in this area the proposed zoning was not felt to be the best use for the property in this area. Mr. Chester L. Hartsock, 1463 L Street, noting vested interest in Item 4 of pro- posed revisions,stated he could see no reason for cutting back the North 4 of the area since medium density multiple use should be just as valid in this area as it is in the South 2 of the property, especially since the East side is backed by the power line and the North side by a hill, and he felt the areas should be the same between 12th Avenue and 14th Avenues North and between 14th Ave . No. and S.E. 104th St. Attorney Douglas Felker, on behalf of Amos Huseland, called attention to Item No. 1 of the proposed revisions in concern for property owners interest at- 9841 Lake Wn. Blvd., pointing out that when property was annexed in 1960 they were assured that they would have the B-1 zoning and it was requested that this be considered by the Council rather than single family residential for this area, as had been promised. Mr. Charles Littel; 1410 S.E. 130th,inquired regarding the request of the Valley Medical-Dental developers, property located at South 180th., for R-3 zoning and in view of the lateness of the hour, requested that he be allowed to return at a later date to discuss the matter with .the Council. Moved by Garrett, seconded by Edwards, to recess the Special Meeting of the City Council and to continue the public hearing to Tuesday, May 7th at 8:00 p.m. Carried. The meeting recessed at 11.:45 p.m. There were 103 visitors in the Council Chambers this evening. Aeti `ie �� —Nelson, City Clerk D. W.

Taylor and 11r. Eckart, the Railroad Company Representatives, displayed a wall diagram of the existing line and out.- lined its use by the industrial firms co-n.cerned, noting it to be vital to the continued operation of some. Mr. Ivan Haynes, Transport Storage Co., pointed out the automobiles must be removed from the terminal within 21¢ hours under the General Motors agreement and the subject track is pertinent to this operation, Mr. Eckart advised of recent actions to alleviate the problem reported by Mr. Ruud An another part of the City and urged that specific information be secured when a _report is to be made in order that the railroad company may properly administer the appropriate disciplinary action. The delays are not always avoidable at certain cross.-i.ngs but it is desired that if there are problems noted with undue traffic restriction that the period of time be reported and specifics b. remembered, the Walla Walla inc-ident hava.ng been remedied.

Carried. 212 5-6-68 Minutes - Renton City Council Meeting (Cont.) PUBLIC HEARING: Reconsiderat`on of Ray Brown request for rezone amended to R-2 This being the date set, the hearing was declared open. There-being no written com- munications nor audience remarks, it was moved by Perry, seconded by Barei, that the hearing be 'elosed. The .motion carried and the hearing was declared closed. Council. action was invited and it was moved by Trimm, seconded by Grant, to approve the R-2 request with referral to the Law and Ordinance Committee for the necessary Ordinance. The motion carried. Inquiries from the audience followed regarding possible use under the R-2. Planning Director Ericksen read from the Code the use allowed and it was noted that in order to secure a special permit application would have to be filed with the Planning Commission followed by public notice and public hearing. It was urged .that persons wishing to be advised of any public hearing which should result leave their names with the Planning Department. PUBLIC HEARING: Proposed L.I.D. 258, Kennydale area on Lake Wn. Blvd. ; S.E . 91st Place, SE 91st Street; S.E. 92nd Street and S.E. 93rd Street This being the date set, the hearing was declared open. Communication was read from J. R. Fawcett, 9003 = 100th Ave. S.E. , inquiring regarding 35% increase in cost over prior estimate and urging city participation, suggesting 60% since this is the addi- tional cost since the July, 1967 proposal which was lost due to protest. Mr. Fawcett had been instrumental in formation of the district and upon inquiry,it was noted that there was no'-protest at this time and City Engineer Wilson displayed drawing of the proposed line advising that the area was divided at the point where gravity flow runs to the North for connection and this is part of an over all system which could be pro- jected however since the last was defeated by protest it was felt a smaller unit as requested will be instituted at this time. It was noted that the increase in cost is mainly attributed to the smaller size of the district with fewer benefitting property owners sharing,and to the fact that the Lake Wn. Blvd. area requires 10" pipe and only one side of the street will be in the district,limiting the number participating. Mr. Jack Hodges inquired regarding reason his property was not included and was advised that his residence is beyond the division of the district since gravity flow to the connecting line would run to the South and this would involve another cost factor. Mr. Graham Bell commented that his assessment was for two lots and his house extends onto the other lot and a second connection would be unnecessary. City Engineer Wilson advised that consideration is given if such is the event. Inquiry was made as to the possibility of cutting costs by elimination of manholes and City Engineer Wilson stated the State Law required manholes-and this would be necessary whether the district were extended or not. It was noted that part of the area is railroad property and is not included in the benefitting properties. Upon inquiry it was noted that the total district will contain approximately 640 ft. of 10" line, 3200 of 8" line and about 1100 of 6" line or about 3850 main line and 1150 side sewers Mrs. Roberta Hodges in- quired regarding storm water run off and problems caused on their property. City Engineer Wilson suggested interceptor. drains lead into the storm system as the ulti- mate answer but that no sanitary sewer system is under consideration b t this time and would not be unless the whole area could be served. He stated that the Engineering Department along with the County Health Department have begun investigations of faults in septic tanks in the area which will be available at such time as another L.I.D. is commenced. Mayor Custer added this is the first effort of the Joint Agreement with King County Health and Sanitation Department and the Kennydale area will be the first work under this proposal. As there was no further comment, it was moved by Delaurenti, seconded by Perry, the hearing be closed. Carried. Mr. Fawcett inquired regarding possible city participation in the present L.I.D. where the oversize pipe is required for future service and- it was noted that this factor will be considered during the public hearing on the final assessment roll. Moved by Shane, seconded by Grant, to refer the. matter to the Law and Ordinance Committee. Carried. Councilman Barei at this time moved that the City initiate annexation proceedings for Kennydale and Talbot Hill "Islands" and that the matter be placed on the Primary E lecti Ballot in September of this year. The motion was seconded by Perry. It was noted that petitions have been circulated in the Talbot Hill area and City Attorney Shellan advised that in such instance the City will have to pay the election cost and money will need to be appropriated. Schellert suggested alternate method by 10%petition of the owners, and not try to force the annexation since previous attempts with nearly 70% signers had resulted in failure. Barei felt that new residents might make the difference at this time. Edwards stated the people should be given an opportunity to petition. After discussion as to timeliness and order of business, question was called and vote was dissenting,resulting in request for roll call vote. The roll call: Aye: Delaurenti, Perry, Bruce, Grant and Barei.. No: Garrett, Morris, Schellert, Trimm, Edwards, Maxi.n, and Shane. The motion lost as had been declared by the Chair. -2- 2 .10 ) Minutes - Renton City Council Meeting . 5/6/68 COMMUNICATIONS: Communications were read with Council actions taken as follows: Progress E!�ztijtate No. 22 payable to Johnston-Campanella-Murakami & Co. for architectural services rendered on new city hall, C.AG. 1014-66, $5,537.37.

Chambers, City Hall, and the Pledge of Allegiance to the Flag was recited in unison by the assembly. Councilmen Grant and Trimm were absent. Deputy City Clerk, Gwen Marshall, was present to represent Helmie Nelson, City Clerk, and Gordon Y. Ericksen, Planning Director, was present from the Planning Department. . The Public Hearing was declared open at this time to further con=sider revisions and recom- mendations regarding the proposed Comprehensive Plan of the City and brochures including maps and list of areas to be affected were distributed. Communication from Mr. Robert C. Wing, President, Puget Western, Inc., requested that the properties known as Gladding-McBean (Interpace) remain designated as heavy industry and not be revised to multi-family residential., high density, and remainder Green Belt, as proposed. He noted that the special soil condition of this area will hold the heavy founda- tion loads their industry requires which other pbtential industrial park areas do not have (water saturation being too great) . It was noted that during the past two years his Company : has prepared a comprehensive development plan oriented toward an industrial park, taking into account the access problems & proposing improvements to solve same. A second area whic=h they own was also noted which lies East of the Valley Freeway, 'nest of'Tal.bot Hill,South of the Renton Interchange and North of South 180th Street anticipated to be developed as multiple housing as is provided in the present land use plan. It was noted that under a Green Belt classification they had some question as to whether any economic use of the land would be permitted. Petition containing approximately 55 signatures protested multiple family, high density zoning on property located at 87th Avenue South and South 130th Street, as requested by Mr. Donald Jacobs of Trend Realty. The parcel is now zoned single family residential and it was desired that no change in the Comprehensive Plan be effected for said area. AUDIENCE C OMNE NTS: Councilman Shane introduced Mr. Johnson who spoke on behalf of St. Andrews Lodge, F. & A.M. Renton, requested the Council to consider granting a less restrictive use than SR-1 now shaan on the Comprehensive Plan for property at 10th and "M" Street owned by the Lodge. Mayor Custer noted that the use designated on the Comprehensive Plan does not affect the zoning of properties as they exist and that no actual zoning is to be done, future land use being the matter under consideration which, in some cases may affect future use, but not in general. It was pointed out that if zoning requested in the.future is reflected on the Comprehensive Plan, however, the request would more l=ikely receive favorable consideration. Remarks were invited on items proposed for revision as listed. (Items with no request for change -or comments thereon dre not . included) 1. Kennydale area bounded on North by S.E. 84th Street; South by S.E. 100th Street; East by the freeway; west by Lake Wn. Blvd.; now indicated as multi-family residential, medium density. Proposed revision to single family residential.. Mrs. Amos Huseland, 10410 - 116th Ave. S.E., described location of her property noting that it had been zoned "G" or General upon annexation at which time they had been assured they- could retain Business use. No further development could take place until sewers were in and sewers are now being instituted so it was requested that this parcel not be designated as single family use but be left open for continued business purpose. (9104 Lake Wn. Blvd.) Mrs. Josephice Peterson, 1458 Hill.crest Lane, requested the Council to judge fairly on the F. E. Lawrence property in the Kennydale area, and allow Business use as are on the other 3 corners, or the retention of multiple use,the property not lending itself reasonably nor logically to single family residential use. (SW corner of S.E. 94th at 104th. Mr. Amos Huseland added to his wife's statement the fact that they had Business zoning when in the County and it was his understanding that the same or a like use is granted upon annexa- tion and it was their desire that this be shown as Business and not single family residential. Upon inquiry, it was stated that the property was annexed in 1961, and upon further discussion it was pointed out that just as the City has no guarantee of future ownerships and present use, there is no guarantee that zonings or use under another municipal body of elected legislators or City Officials can be constant, changes being effected with growth and progressiveness con- tinually. -1- h 2`"2')5 Minutes - Special City Council Meeting Public Hearing - Comprehensive Plan May 7, 1968 (Continued_ from April 29th) AUDIENCE COMhIENTS: (Cont.) 2. Kennydale Area West of Lake Wn. Blvd. between Lake Wn. Beach Park and S.E. 95th Street now indicated as multi-family residential, low density; proposed recreation. .Park Director Coulon, on behalf of the Park Board advised that moneys were available to acquire additional waterfront property and some $400IOO�had been allocated to the City of Renton for acquisition of .Lake Washington property through successful. .Forward Thrust issues. Also, it is possible that 50%,matching money might be secured from the Federal. Government and 25% matching funds through the State. This money, however, must be used for waterfront property. Bids have been called for on the first phase of development of the Lake Wn. Beach Park and Stage 2 has been approved and bid call for this stage are proposed for July 1st. It is hoped that the third stage might be approved before the end of the year and the project completed in 69. The Park Board has indicated a desire to add to the property and it is probable that funds may be secured to take such action. During the ensuing discussion it was noted that if indicated as recreation on the Comprehensive plan the application for assistance would be greatly enhanced. Iter 3. Kennydale ARea bounded on the North by S.E. 97th St; South by 12th Avenue North; Fast by 116th Avenue S.E.; West by the freeway, now indicated multi-family residential, low density; proposed revision to single family residential. Mr. Emmett Kindle, 9629- 108th S.E., called attention to a small parcel along the freeway between 100th and 96th on 108th S.E., approximately 330 ft. long, and stated that this is not an ideal location for SR-1 and requested at least medium density multiple use as being reasonable and better use for the property. Mr. Frank Storey, 11007 - 109th Avenue S.E. advised that he owned a parcel in vicinity of the North Renton Interchange that might possibly be involved with a pedestrian crossing and prior rezone request had been denied. It was requested that this not be shown SR-1 but be allowed indication of multiple residential use. 4. Highlands area bounded on North by S.E. 104th Street extended, ; South by 12th Avenue No.; East by Puget Sound Power RAT; West by "H" Street, now indicated multi-family residential, high density; proposed cutback of high density multi-family to low density multi-family North of 14th Avenue North and to medium density multi-family South of 14th North. Mr. Chet Hartsock, 1463 71L" Street, stated he owns approximately 5 acres parallel with the Renton Highlands and he cannot understand why classification of the north one-half of the Highlands should be reduced and the area south remain and requested the whole area be allow- ed at least medium density multiple residential use. He felt the power line was a natural buffer between single family residential use,and the hillside slope and general terrain were otherwise contributing to the division. �. : Honeydew Area bounded 6n the'North by' l.2th Avenue North; South. by. 11th Ct. No. ; East by 136th Ave. S.E.; West by 132nd Ave, S.E. now indicated as multi-family residential., high density; proposed revision to single family residential. Mr. S. C. Iffert, 820 Lakeside Drive, Seattle, and Mr. Jim Dal.pay, 13033 Sunset Blvd. E, requested a. deletion of the proposed revision of item #5 from the Comprehensive Plan to allow development of the area to Business and Multiple-family residential use. Approxi- mately 13 acres are involved and par of the area is nota business, having been used for such a number of years. Since the entire area involves a few ownerships inquiry was made as to reason for selecting this property to revise.". Mr. Stan De Long, 6406 - 60th Ave. So. also having property_i.nter.eUt in the area,noted that when acquired and planned for development they had not anticipated a change. Mr. Dal.pay noted change accomplished 3 years ago and drawing of their proposed business and apartment complex was displayed, it being noted that a revision would have drastic effect on their plans and the potential of the property. (Located at Sunset and 132nd Ave. S.E. ) Objection was expressed to the downgrading of property :they had purchased after being sure of zoning with idea of develop- ing as sho;an,which was felt to be the best and highest use of the property. Planning Director E-ric'_ sen noted Planning Commission intent that the business line be drawn back and concentrated in the vicinity of Sunset Blvd. itself to protect the SR-1 use. During discussion it was noted that property owners need to be compensated when property'.-values ai'e reduced. Ifr. DeLong noted that, the item 5 covers only their properties and they woulri request that it not be changed. Various questions were raised as to intent of the Planning Conn^iission, Mr. Erichsen adding that it was mainly to prevent any .further use of Multiple Use South. -2- 226 Minutes - Special City Council Meeting Public Hearing on Comprehensive Plan May 7, 1968 (Continued from April 29th) AUDIENCE COMMENTS: (Cont.) 8.. E. Cemetery Rd;; 4 corners 138th Ave. S.E. and S.E. 128th to a depth of 300 ft. now business, proposed to 600 ft. depth with 200, buffer of Multiple. Mr. C. K. Mullins pointing to Business area at Cemetery Road and 148th S.E., noted business fon about 300 ft but none going East from 132nd and advised that the lumber yard should be included and the B-1 extended to encompass this property, to the West, Upon inquiry regarding this proposal and reasons, it was noted that it is likened to Item 5, lying in the same position and in a direct line and separation of use was basically th -intent. Item 13 was noted to be Mr. Shane's property which revision was made to bring it. into accord with the land use. Item 14. Gladding-McBean area bounded on the North by Cedar River; South by ridge running SFS from City of Seattle pipeline; West at intersection of South 7th St. extended with 116th Ave. S.E. extended, now indicated Heavy Industry and green belt; proposed revision to 150, abutting river for recreation, next 5001 to 6001 depth for multi-family residential, high density and remainder green belt. Mr. Les Donner, 12849 S.E. 72nd Street, explained the position of the property owner and presented maps and drawings of proposed development program planned by Puget Western, Inc. , prime owner of this area, to include excavation for widening of the access and extending the property potential toward industrial park use. It was noted that removal of material and excavations will be well engineered and will not endanger the stability of the hillside. Information and plans outlined in Mr. Wingrs letter, which was read earlier were extended. Mr. Donner requested retention of H-1 use as being vital to their operation and having some question as to possible use under the Green Belt designation affirmed that the intent was to have H-1 for the entire area. 1.6: .. Maple Valley area bounded by Cedar River on the West and North and by 148th Ave. S.E. extended on the East and Milwaukee Railroad mainline R/W on the South, now indicated as Green Belt. Mr. Harold Jordan, 11607 Maple Valley Highway, stated that the highest and best use for the subject property is other than single family residential... He outlined the 1.1 acre area noting its isolation urged review and noted access problems and prior request for Multiple use discounting the widening of the highway as being a factor to be considered. 18. Rolling Hills Area - Specific area discussed is not included. Mr. Lennis Hutchins, 15614 - 106th Avenue S.E. requested the Council to give consideration to allow retention of Multiple use on the 20 acre parcel located between the Thunderhill Apartments and Transamerica development, The landowners involved have owned the property as early as 1929 and it was felt a change to single family classification would result in great loss of property values in the area and reduce opportunity to sell or obtain money from lending agencies. 20. West Talbot Hill area bounded on the North by South. 13th Street; South by South 176th Street, exteided; .West by the East Valley Freeway, east to depth of 3001 from freeway; now indicated multi-family residential, high density, proposed revision to Green Belt. Mr. Donner, again on behalf of Puget Western, Inc., noted Mr. Wing►s letter and that Puget- Power ugetPower is the parent Company in this ownership and questioned the economic use if Green Belt designation is implemented. Mr. Wing had noted that though much of the area is low and pre- sents storm drainage problems at present, it is not impossible to develop same for such use as multiple housing as indicated on the existing Comprehensive Plan. 23. Benson Hill area from intersection of 108th Ave. S.E. and S.,E. 176th St. to radius of 10001 ; designated commercial bounded by 500' band of multi-family residential, medium density, proposed to reduce commercial to 600, and banded by 400' strip of multiple. Mrs. Helen Gibson, 17630 - 108th S.E. inquired if this would include her property next to Albertsons and it was ant:.icipat6cj tbaf. sne may likely however, invitation was extended to bring the legal description in to the City Engineer 'or verification, extension of planning being included in event of future annexation since time would be saved by both parties con- cerned if an area annexed were already given a designated use. -3- 227 Minutes - Special City Council Meeting Public Hearing on Comprehensive Plan May 7, 1968 (Cont. from April 29th) AUDIENCE COTIMENTS: (Cont.) Item 23 Mrs. Margie Troutl,and, 7600 Lakeridge Drive, inquired regarding inclusion of County properties which had been now clarified, and also made inquiry regarding widening of the Benson Road. It was noted that a program had been drawn but that no funding had been authorized in this bi-enaium so nothing would be done for another year. It was noted that the money allocated was for right of way. Mr. Wendell Forgaard, 678- Sunset Blvd. East, Planning Commission Member, outlined the effort of the Planning Commission in preparation of the Comprehensive Plan re7- visions noting the many hours of time given (unpaid) and he stated that out of the 23 items only nine have had any comment indicating that although mistakes have been made it was a good job accomplished. He commended the Planning Director for his contribution and very fine service to the citizens on the matter, noting that the Commission is trying to do a good job and that the Planning Department has been excellent. Councilman Shane inquired of Mr. Cugini, of Barbee I-Till, if they could exist under L-1 zoning. Mr. Cugini called attention to the provision of 5 horse power limitation and height restrictions noting they now operate with 3000 h. p. motors. The Mayor noted that they are an existing non-conforming use .:and that some thought is being given to changing the .Code in this respect. After further discussion and notation that Attorney Hanken had requested H-1 consideration be given to this area and notation that zoning was not ralative to the land use, some concern being expressed as to whether this were fact if the use proposed is lesser with regard to right of the property owner to retain values. Councilman Shane commented that to lower the value is to deprive the owner and attorney Hanken added that' if the zoning - is not reflected in the Comprehensive Plan it could constitute spot zoning. It was noted that further discussion should be resumed p g i'or specific items with the Planning Commission and it was moved by Barei, seconded by Perry, to close the hearing. Carried. Moved by Perry, seconded by Schellert, that all comments recommended be made available to the Committee of the Whole for a joint meeting with the Planning Commission. The motion carried. Moved by Garrett, seconded by Schellert, to adjourn. Carried. The meeting was adjourned at 10:30 p.m. There were 42 visitors in the Council Chambers. - en Marshall, Deputy City Clerk D. W.

Carried. Property Committee Chairman Barei reported on the request of Harold Nellor for an adjust- ment o.0 his rental charges on property located on Lake Street at the intersection of Rainier Avenue .and South Third Street (P.A.G. 112,,-67). The. committee recommends a'.,1405.00 final payment be accepted to cover a six-moi-tai period. Droved by Bruce, seconded by Barie, to concur in the recommendation of the Property Committee. Carried. The Property Committee recommended that the City Council make the following bid aimards on City vehicles; To the firm of l-lil.liams and Swanson - One 6-Passenger Station flagon for the Park.

The committee further'.rocor,m6fai e' d that the bid of Dra ee_r s Harley Davidson on the motorcycle be accepted. This was the only bid received on this piece of equipment. The committee reported that Williams and Swanson were the second low bidder, with Courtesy Chevrol.et., having a slightly lowdr' bi.d. The comrdtt in their consideration, concluded that the ability to service the vehicles locally would be a definite advantage and result in savings in man hours and money._ An e_`a::iple of the slight differential in the bidding was given. 3/4-Ton Pickup, ',11..45; 3/4-Ton Pickup, ',"3.76; 8-Passenger Station Wagon, x;7.,,4; 2 vans, ;15.90. Moved by Morris, seconded by Bruce, to concur in the recorunendation of the Property Committee. Councilllan Grant expressed the opinion that the City is rather limiting the bids it cwn expect to receive in the future by their failure to accept the low bids, basing recorn:►end- ations solely on the location of facilities for servicing the vehicles. He suggested that the Council take a loot: at their bidding p:cactices. Recent action in awarding the garbage contract was also recalled. Councilrian iiorris stated that al]. cost factors' considered,tiered, the bids were awarded to the low biddor and this had been the thinking of thek: opert� Co7sm;iittee. A vote on the pencLrg motion carried. City of Renton i2.3 3 Council Iieeting - Minutes Nay 13, 19603 Councilman Barei read a copy of a letter to William 0. McKay Company from Vern Church, Purchasing Agent. Mr. Church stated that a large manila envelope marked 'Bid Opening had been received in his office on May 9th. The Pitney Bowes postmark was dated May 6th. The bid opening was May 6th, so on advice of the City Attorney the envelope was returned to the firm unopened. Councilman Shane referred back to questions and statements concerning the -garbage contract award, noting that the low bidder had withdrawn his bid. He cited diffic 1'cie. the bidders encountered due to lack of adequate information on customer accounts and the number and types of containers, stating this should have been available and could have been accomplished through an audit, which has not been done since 1963. He questicz,.:d OW the trisdom of a separate contract with the Boeing Company which d'.d not expire at the same time as the garbage franchise contract, Which posed a problem to bidders and -(c..orccjy affected the bids. Mayor Custer again advised that the Council had not seen fit to authorize the extra expense involved to perform the audit, nor had the Sanitation Ccm- mittee. It might be just as appropriate to have' one now.* If the City performed tYo billing the information would be readily available. The 10l reduction in the bid c. o- tation,. provided the city perform the billing would probably cover the cost of the additional personnel and accounting procedures. This could not be added to the data processing equipment until 1969. Councilman Shane stated that it should be noted that the garbage contract expired. in October, 1967 and he assumed office a few weeks later. Moved by Morris, seconded by Maxin, that City of Renton vouchers Numbered from3227 :o 3366 having previously been approved by the Auditing and Accounting Ccnadttee be authorized for payment at this time.

PUBLIC HEARING: Manio Phillips request for rezone from GS-1 to SR-1; property located in the 600 Block of 11th Place South on Talbot Hill. The hearing was declared open. Communication from Mr. Clark' Teegarden, Vice-Chairman of the Renton Planning Commission, reported review of Mr. Manio's request and of the Council's request for report and recommendation. It was the unanimous feeling of the Commission that due to circumstances the usual procedures established by the Code should not be by-passed. The application for rezone has been published and will be heard at the public hearing meeting of the Commission on May 22nd and recommendations submitted thereafter. Various members of the Planning Commission including Mr. Garrison, Mr. Paola, Mr. Ross and Mr. Stredicke explained that the applicant filed too late for the April meeting and that if waiver of procedural requirements were effected it would set a precedent and would be expected by other citizens; also, the Commission dial not wish to be open to criticism as showing favoritism and although the Commission felt the rezone was a matter of circum- stance and timing it did not feel waiver of procedures would be justified. Mr. Phillips advised that the timing was the question but that delay would extend the construction into tine winter and cause the contractor problems and he had made the regaest with the hopes of expediting the commencement and completion date to avoid undue delay. Shane felt the waiver should be granted and upon inquiry of the City Attorney was advised of the fact that two bodies were involved in the action which was not proper and that rules and regu- lations should be adhered to unless an emergency exists. Shane noted further that the si�- of the property is adequate, 14,450 sq. ft. , sanitary sewers are available and the man should not be stopped. Attorney Shellan noted the zoning must be corrected in order for the property to meet City Code, the present zoning requiring some 40,000 sq. ft. per. lot. Moved by Perry, seconded by Maxin, to continue the hearing until Monday, May 27th pending receipt of the Planning Commission recommendation. Mayor Custer urged that the Council give closer look at the Talbot area for other properties likely to present the same problem if it is felt such might be in the public interest. The motion carried.

Moved by Barei, seconded 'by Shane,that the motion be amended to refer the matter along with the pending annexation, to the Committee of the Whole, it being noted that piecemeal annexations are very uneconomical and perhaps policy should be considered in regard to specific area sizes.

AUDIENCE COMMENT: Letter was presented by Jeanine Ingram, 463 "H" Street, commending the Council for its initiative and foresight in unanimously approving the change in designation of surplus hospital property on the Comprehensive Plan. It was urged that the City Council continue its efforts in representing interests of the 1300 petitioners and other persons of the City in fulfilling the recreational needs and acquiring the property for such development. Mr. Norman Ross, 420 .1 Street, spoke regaruing the need for large parcels of land for park and recreation use, noting that much of the area encompassed in desired plans will not be- available at any price while the Highlands site is available and undeveloped and should be made available at minimum cost. It was noted that other such land is not available with equal accessibility for foot traffic and minimum development costs and it was felt the hospital district should not charge current commercial value for the land which the people originally Provided purchase funds. It was felt that Fenton should not be bearing costs to provide hospital facilities to a district serving nearly 100,000 more people and that construction and operation funds should be raised by G. 0. Bonds shared equally by the District. It was urged that the property be designated Park: and Recreation as the best and highest use and not rezoned to R-3 or R-4 which the hospital district has requested. Mr. Richard Stredi.cke noted newspaper article which instigated the comments it not being felt that the Council should take action to designate as park use and then vone it multiple family residential. It was noted that the acquisition is in the Property Committee, the funding in Ways and Means Committee and use in the Planning Committee and the Comprehensive use in Committee of the Whole . Upon inquiry, Mr. Ross advised that the Hospital. Board has not been given a copy of the letters presented. Funding of the acquisition by G. 0. Bonds and balloting was suggested as a last resort money not being available at present for the purchase . 244 Minutes - Renton City Council Meeting 5/20/68 AUDIENCE COMMENT: (Cont.) Hospital Property Upon inquiry by Mr. Jim Anderson it was noted that the original cost for the hospital property Vas $30,000.00. During further discussion it was pointed out that no final action has been taken to adopt the Comprehensive Plan and that' the recommended changes have not been consumated and upon legal aspect of restraint of rezone , it was pointed out that generally you cannot take such action when personal interest is involved and that the City would have to pay fair market value for the property if it had the money, and the hospital district cannot legally give property away any more than the City can, being obligated to its people as much as any other corporate body. City Attorney Shellan advised he would have to disqualify himself from engaging in any activities on this matter since a member of his firm represents the hospital district. Mr. Archie Graham, 408 "I" Street felt the hospital district should not be able to rezone to sell any more than the City should prohibit zoning- to buy, and suggested that R-1 be maximum use, otherwise spot zoning would result since there are single family residences on three sides. It was noted that the land is not being uped and that one Municipal Corporation may condemn lands of another as long as you want it for higher use. The present zoning is GS-1 which requires 35,000 sq. ft. for residential use. It was noted that rezone of the subject property had been turned down in prior action. Burden of tax presently being borne by the taxpayers who contribute to the King County taxing district for the hospital and various other hospital and medical service groups was cited. After further discussion petitioner representatives were advised that they would be made aware of further actions of Committees in regard to this rezone, the hospital Board also to be notified.

PUBLIC HEARING: Manio Phillips property rezone (Continued from 5/20/68, GS-1 to SR-1; property located in the 600 Block of 11th Place South on Talbot Hill) This being the date set, the hearing was continued. Letter from Planning Director Ericksen reported that the Planning Commission, at its regular meeting of May 22nd recommended approval of the rezone, noting however, that the Zoning Ordinance requires a ten day waiting period to allow appeals of the Commission decisions. Since there was no opposition it was not felt that an appeal would be filed but the Commission understands that the Ordinance rezoning the property will not be acted upon until June 3, thereby meeting the legal requirement of the Zoning Ordinance. Shane felt that Mr. Phillips should not be delayed and that perhaps some monetary restitution should be made or the rezone fee refunded. It was noted that the delays have been due to filing date of applicant's petition and that normal procedures have been followed except for de- viation to allow commencement, of benefit to the applicant, by issuance of a building permit, City Code and rules and regulations followed other- wise.

Mr. Frank Storey inquired regarding access from the North Renton area and City Engineer Wilson advised that this project of pedestrian access would not qualify under the subject program and would be classified under a different project, the pre=sent revisions to the street program required to be updated each year and covering a six year period. Mayor Custer noted that the matter of pedestrian access is being considered with some mention to be included in the preliminary budget for next year. Mr. Richard Stredicke inquired regarding County participation and if the list designates the priority. It was noted that the County has its own program and it would be expected that 138th would be emphasized in that case since it seems to be their main arterial route, and no priority is established by' the placement on the list as every project has been included which it was felt might come up in Renton in. the future.With some traffic control to be possibly required with completion of State Highway projects,additional matching funds may be available. The plan merely serves as a guide and costs are anticipated,bearing in mind that time escalates the cost, annual revision required accordingly. MOVED by Delaurenti., seconded by Perry, that the hearing be closed. Councilman Shane asked what benefit the residents receive from these future plans on arterials which should be State Highway responsibility, and Mayor Custer replied that it was to serve people within the City as well as those who come in to workshop or attend dance- halls, taverns, etc., with the improved right of ways being used more by the _local residents as a route home than previously.Th6 work is accomplished according to priority need, the question of whether interior streets should be improved rather than the arterials is another Problem as this plan allows participation in some funding assistance not granted for interior streets. Councilman Shane felt the interior streets should be as great in priority as the state highways. bow Councilman Perry called attention to recent report,having to do with the last meeting of the Puget Sound Governmental Conference, wherein Dr. Slavin,who assists Cities in their funding assistance programs, in recognition of the problem in Bremerton and Renton with daytime influx of population noted unique situations, and the Conference has taken action to seek legislation to provide additional revenue to alleviate the burden of additional population. Minute excerpt was read outlining details of the action, and proposals to be presented at the next session of the Legislature. j Councilman Shane staged he would like to see a like program adopted for the streets within the City as well as those in the City Engineer's recommendation and he did not feel the Council Should `-sake action on the matter before. them tonight. Mayor Custer advised that tlii.s I0P01I.- is required by State Law and is to be filed with the State while the interior pro,f:rtam is a separate one with no fund aid nor filing requirement. -1- 312 Minutes - Renton City Council Meeting (Cont.) 7/15/68 PUBLIC HEARING: Six-Year Comprehensive Street Improvement Program Councilman Shane inquired as to when the local streets are to be improved and Mayor Custer noted recent work completed on streets in North Renton, South Renton, the Kennydale area and $17,000.00 allocation of last week for Talbot Hill area and 12th Avenue North, among others.

Letter from real estate Representative, Mrs. Josephine Peterson, advised that the zoning is in agreement with the existing Comprehensive Plan and the purchaser, whose offer expires on July 17th, acknowledges that building permit cannot be obtained until sewers are available. It was felt the rezone would enhance and upgrade the area rather than being detrimental, serving as a buffer between business and residential areas and possible helping to get the sewers.

Planning Director Ericksen's letter outlined Planning Commission action and recommendation of R-2 as highest and best use to allow adequate regulatory controls. Audience comment was invited. Mrs. Peterson, 1458 Hillcrest Drive, reviewed the contents of her letter urging the rezone . Mr. Walt Tracey, 10227 S.E. 94th Street, opposed the rezone because of population density without adequate sewer facilities. Mr. F. E. Lawrence, applicant, advised that statement had been prepared to the effect that no building will commence until sewers are available and requested approval to allow planning to proceed between now and such time. Mr. Chauncey W. Betts, 10046 S.E. 94th noted residency of some 21 years in the area and objected to apartments in the residential district anticipating problems of population and parking.

Audience comment was invited. Mr. Frank Storey, 11007 - 109th Ave. S.E. recalled annexation and circulation of petitions prior thereto,st-at lig it was 'then publicised that none of the zoning would be changed when the properties became a part of the City, and questioned policy now being observed. Mr. Amos Huseland, 10410 - 116th Ave. S .E . , spoke on behalf of the rezone stating he owned two of the five lots involved which were zoned Business while in the County and he had worked avidly for annexation being assured by City Officials at that time that his zoning would remain unchanged. His annexation object was to get sewers and he. has not taken action to develop as he was not aware it would be changed. He read Section D of Ordinance #1869 in part which provides - - no change shall be effected with regard to existing status, uses, rights and limitations established in such area respectively, at the time of such annexation - - -. He felt the apartment would upgrade the area by eliminating old buildings now existing, acknowledging some view restriction which would result even with construction of a single family residence . Principal access is to be via existing alleyway. -2-- Minutes - Renton City Council Meeting (Cont.) 7/15/68 PUBLIC HEARING: (Cayford-Huseland) Appeal Mr. Lloyd McGill, 9828 S .E. 91st Place, Mrs. P. M. Everett, 9105 - 100th S.E ., Mr. Graham Bell, 9827 S.E . 91st Place, Mr. Keith Mellor, 6412 South Bryan Street, Seattle, on behalf of his father, all spoke in opposition, along with Mr. and Mrs. J. Gaidos, 10004 S .E. 91st Place who noted litter problem with present population, being near the market. Mr. Norman Ross and Mr. Dick Stredicke, Planning Commissioners outlined Commission actions noting land levels and expressed regard for nearby resi- dential properties and view restrictions (their objections being later ruled out of order since they had already voted on the matter at Planning Commission hearings) Mrs. Huseland noted that the upper portion of the property is intended for ... parking purposes which will not be too restrictive with many people in the area feeling it would be a great improvement and upgrading of the area. Mrs. Roberta Hodge, 9841 S .E . 93rd Street, answered inquires regarding the Kennydale Community Club support of the. rezone, of which she is Secretary, and Planning Director Ericksen showed film slides of the property and right of way for proposed access and egress and various views of adjacent properties. Councilman Schellert inquired whether the City could lower existing use upon annexation of an area and City Attorney Shellan pointed out that this is unimproved property with no existing use, advising that the City could have chosen to adopt the existing zonings of properties upon annexation which it did not do, but rather, the property is put in a "G" holding category which allows continuation of an existing use, and that zoning and use are not one and the same. Councilman Shane stated if a zoning is adequate in the County it should be given the same zoning upon annexation and planning procedures should be changed . in this respect. MOVED by Shane, seconded by Grant, that the hearing be closed. Carried. MOVED by Garrett, seconded by Edwards, that decision of the Planning Commission be reversed and the R-3 rezone be granted.

Letter from Planning Director Er.icksen was read outlining Commission review of the sign application in accordance with zoning ordinance requirement, "4-711: B-1 Business District (20)Billboards, advertising fto signs - — — plans shall be filed with the Planning Commission for approval." It was noted that the existing rotating sign had replaced a former reader board sign but its installation was not in accord with the plans subn.iitted at time of permit application, the proper setback not having been observed. The Commission felt the new sign on top of the building represents duplication of the existing sign and approved the new sign provided the existing rotating sign be eliminated. Mr. Mike Rathbun.. 6627 N.E. 191st Street, Kenmore, Washington, P.B.R. Sign Company Representative, and Mr. Keith Tonkin, 9515 Mt. View Drive,- Renton, owner of the Taco Time, spoke stating that the new sign is crated and on top of the building, no trouble in securing the permit having been anticipated, PBR having installed many signs in the City heretofore . Other non—conforming signs within the area were noted and inquiry made as to why this particular installation was halted. Discussion disclosed that the Building Department had referred the subject sign to the Planning Commission for recommenda— tion thus the installation had not been authorized at that time. 3.20 - Minutes .20Minutes - Renton City Council Meeting 7/22/68 PUBLIC HEARING: TACO TIME APPEAL (Cont.) Upon inquiry, City Attorney Shellan stated that the City should not set any limit on the number of signs to be allowed as long as each complies with the Code and if the existing sign had been set back onto private property there would be no quarrel. He noted that amount of setback violation should be determined and if variance for the encroachment over public property is to be requested proper application should be made to the Board of Adjustment, otherwise removal or replacement of the existing sign may be required. During discussion it was noted that the new sign does conform to the Code and the subject is an administrative problem. Moved by Garrett, seconded by Bruce, to close the hearing. Carried.

Moved by Schellert, and seconded by Edwards to concur in the Proclamation. Carried. AUDIENCE COMMENT: Mr. Charles O'Dell inquired further regarding the garbage contract, noting that he now is licensed as a business in the City of Renton and felt he should be served accordingly. He cited provisions of the ordinance relating to certain refuse that would not be acceptable as garbage and to hauling restrictions. He felt the document to be somewhat confusing and questioned the compulsory service and inquired whether a lien could be placed on his property and as to validity of the document. City Attorney Shellan assured its legality stating that it is a compulsory service similar to water and sewage, it being presumed the people all use water and likewise accumulate gargage, and in the best public interest such service is provided for health and welfare of the community. If a person does not have any garbage he may file an affidavit to that effect, but unless he falls within the exemption he is charged for service. Councilman Schellert pointed out that the commercial rate is 37� per can per monthly pick-up(and not 37� per month with daily pick-up, )with a $2.00 minimum. Mr. Richard Stredicke 3916 - 10th Ct. No., commented that he did not Leel he should have to pay additional fee to dump when ,he has compulsory garbage service and noted that much of the dumping is now done on the right-of-way in lieu of the added payment.and hauling to the County dump. Mr. Stredicke inquired regarding insertion of legal notices in the Sunday paper instead of the usual Wednesday publication and stated the public should be advised 6f the issue to be used .for the legals. City Clerk Nelson advised that the Record Chronicle has changed the deadline for legals to 5:00 p.m. Monday for Wednesday publication which is prior to the Council meeting and it was necessary in order not to hold up action, to publish on Sunday in this instance. When the newspaper goes to its third publication on Friday it is intended that all legals will go in this issue it being difficult at present to meet the deadline when any number are required. City Attorney Shellan added that the earliest possible date for adequate notice has been the practice which is the best'way parties can be served. Mayor Custer requested the newspaper representatives to give consideration to giving public notice that the legals are now being carried in both the Wednesday and Sunday issues(due to the fact the deadline is prior to the Council meetings in which legals are approved for publication and would ordinarily go in Wednesday.) When the Friday publication is available the problem will. be alleviated. -4- 3�2t Minutes - Renton City Council Meeting 7/22/68 AUDIENCE COMMENT: (Cont.)

OLD BUSINESS BY COUNCIL: . Council President Garrett recalled referral to the Council Committee on Committees of matter of appointees to negotiate with Local 21 R, Wn. State Council of County and City Employees, AFL-CIO, and submitted letter from C. C. Donworth & Associates, Inc. for reading. The letter outlined extent of the company's present engagement with public employers, basis for charges, and type of services to be rendered. Present associations include the City of Seattle, King County, Wn, State Ferries and the U. of W. and work is done on an hourly basis at the rate of $25.00 and $35.00 per hour and in each case a monthly retainer of $250.00, hourly charges applying only where total time charges add up to more than $375.00. Services involve furnishing of advice or a representative in meetings with labor organizations. Councilman Garrett reported recommendation of the Committee on Committees that Council authorize the Mayor and City Attorney to formulate a contract to fit City needs for retention of C. C. Donworth & Associates, Inc. Moved by Schellert, seconded by Delaurenti, to concur in the Committee recom- mendation. Councilman Grant stated that although he was formerly an employee of Wn. State Council of County and City Employees, he is no longer a staff member nor is he receiving any pay or gratuity therefrom, however with his background in labor and representing the City and employees as a Councilman he would object to hiring this private labor consultant or any labor relations firm at taxpayers expense and did not feel the recommendation should be approved at this time . Mayor Custer pointed out that any contract document prepared would need to be approved by the Council. Councilman Garrett called attention to the fact that the preliminary budget is being prepared and adoption of the final budget is forthcoming requiring some timely action, the contract document to be coming back for approval, the Committee after review of three courses of action having determined that this was the one it chose to present to the Council. Mayor Custer requested Council President Garrett to assume the Chair while he commented,advi_sing that he and Councilman Trimm had attended a seminar and it had been suggested by both Union and Management that it would be best if professionals are hired to negotiate for management since there are no experts on hand otherwise, and it was felt this firm had the best background. Mayor Custer suggested that the Council Members not serve on a negotiating committee in the best interest of serving the persons they personally represent otherwise. Upon inquiry it was pointed out that the Mayor has taken action heretofore in formulating the wage scale but that no formal negotiations have been held. Perry noted other meetings where Union and �. Management had agreed that professional representation was recommended and Grant commented that they may have agreed at the meetings but "the honeymoon was short", and noting length of time involved in the process of getting-'employees recognized, did not feel the Council should take immediate action on this matter. After further comments in regard to actions of the Committee on Committed in selecting the firm recommended and comparison of Union negotiators who were "the best in the field" to Labor Relation Consultants, the pending motion was put to vote to authorize the Mayor and City Attorney to prepare contract documents to fit city needs for retaining C. C. Donworth & Associates, Inc. The motion carried. Discussion ensued regarding basis of payment being hourly or by retainer and the retainer proposal was determined best for city purposes, Councilman Grant outlining his associations and experiences in negotiating as Sheet Metal Trade Representative. -5- . 324 Minutes - Renton City Council Meeting 7/22/68 OLD BUSINESS BY COUNCIL (Cont.)

Mayor Custer stated the reasons were good ones and not those stated and he did not wish to embarTassparties whom he had appointed by having them publicly questioned and rejected and that the present method is deemed to be the better way of handling the matter. NEW BUSINESS BY COUNCIL Council President Garrett announced a Committee of the Whole meeting at 7:00 p.m. on August 5th to discuss the policy in regard to extension of sewer service outside the city and other items as time -will allow. Councilman Schellert inquired regarding 30--day Revocable clause in the Sign ermits recalling appeal action by Taco-Time and recommended that the Building Department check to see if this policy is not being followed. Mayor Custer advised that at the time the permit was issued the 30-day permit was not required but since another request had been made the City had the choice of having the sign moved or removed. Councilman Bruce announced a Fire and Water Committee meeting on Wednesday, July 24th at 7:00 p.m. in the conference room and the City Engineer was requested to be present. Councilman Bruce called attention to glass being left at the scene of the accidents and Mayor Custer noted that the tow trucks, police detail or gtreet Ilepartment, or sometimes firemen have been assuming this duty and the problem has been greatly lessened that it has been, the City having no legislation requiring anyone specificly to assume the responsibility. Councilinan Edwards inquired regarding improvement of condition of the rail-road crossings and Mayor custer advised of discussing this tonight with a representative of their legal department who was present at the earlier meeting and they are working at present but have not the North 3rd Street i..ntersection area at present. -6- 32J Minutes - Renton City Council Meeting 7/22/68 AUDIENCE COMMENT: Mr. Charles 0"Dell pursued the garbage contract subject further referring to procedure on liens and objecting to the fact that no provision is made for printed schedule of pick-up and holiday service replacement. It was noted that pick-up is provided in instances where holidays are involved. Mr. O'Dell inquired as to where new resi- dents might secure information, .noting the public must pay for Ordinances. Mayor Custer advised that new residents usually come to city hall and contact the Utility Department to commence service and may secure the ordinance and pick-up information `m at that time. Mr. O'Dell noted that other cities furnish printed cards with the pick-up schedule and wondered why the City did not do likewise. He again pointed out his objections of mandatory service, only part of the refuse being accepted, and forbidding of transporting of garbage by individuals and urged. Council to review the conflicts involved. It was noted that garbage and swill is defined and other refuse may be transported. Councilman Delaurenti agreed that pick-up schedule & rates should be furnished and moved that this matter be referred to the Sanitation Committee and Utility Accountant to work out for publishing. The motion was secondedSchellert and carried. Mrs. Susan Lone inquired in regard -to Fair Housing Commission appointments, if membership will be projected to show cross section to assure that minority groups will be repre- sented. Mayor Custer advised that the Ordinance does not specify such but that one of the appointees is representative other than'white if this might answer her inquiry. Mr. Dick Stredicke inquired whether the Kiwanis Park could be'opened on Sunday morning to allow use of the lavatory facility by small children, his son being one in particular.

ROLL CALL OF COUNCIL MEMBERS: Garrett, Morris, Delaurenti, Perry, Trimm, Edwards, Maxin, Bruce, Grant, Shane and Barei. Moved by Delaurenti, seconded by Edwards, .that the absent Councilman be excused. The motion carried. PUBLIC HEARING: Proposed Revisions to the Comprehensive Plan f This being the date set, the hearing was declared open, and communications were read from Mr. G. T. McDaniel, 13613 S.E. 116th Street, requesting change in the plan as it concerns his property located on S.E. 93rd Street, to permit construction of two apartments, now designated single family residential; and from Albert and Shirley Culp, 17031 Springb-rook Road, for change to allow multi-family use so they might provide housing for personnel at the new Valley General Hospital, single family usanow being designated. Mayor Custer called attention to Memorandum from•Council President Garrett,directed to the Council,containing proposed revisions to the Plan. Items 1, 22 3, 4, 6, 7, 8, 9,105' 11, 12, 13, 15, 16, 17, 19, 20,:!21, 22 and 23 had.been approved as recom- mended with no change since the April 29th public hearing. Items 5, 10, 14, 18, and 24, were revised following the joint meeting with the Planning Commission and were approved by the Council with further additions and recommendations to be considered at this public hearing, 7/22/68. (See attached list of existing and revised items) Items considered since the April Public Hearing were presented individually at this time and audience comment invited upon each, along with additional Planning Commission recommendation. Irr ITEM S. HONEYDEW AREA - Existing as multi-family residential (high density) Located within an area bounded on the North by S .E. 104th Street extended, on the South by 12th Avenue North, East by Puget Sound Power R/W, and on the West by "H" Street. 4/29/68 Proposed as single family residential 7/22/68 Proposed as medium density multi-family residential (to serve as buffer between the business property and single family residential) Audience comment was invited. Mr. William Cady, 3306 Frater S.W., Seattle, and Mr. Jim Da 1pay, 3033 Sunset Blvd. East, inquired how far South the proposed revision extends. It was noted that the areas do not designate any specific street boundary or exact line, but are general in nature and in this instance being drawn back to the Northerly boundary of existing single family residential use so that the area to the North would be medium density multiple use, not affecting the subject property. It was noted that zoning is not to be confused with the land use, the exact boundaries to be determined upon specific requests for rezonings, the Cady and Dalpay property not changed in this recommendation. Councilman Garrett stated that the Council has approved the revisions now under dis- cussion and action will be required only on additions or subsequent changes from the ones proposed. . Planning Director Ericksen reported that the Planning Commission in its review of actions taken at the Joint meeting has an additional revision to recommend which is ka, to extend the Multiple Use Medium density designation of property at Springbrook (Talbot Road)and South 180th Street resulting in low density multiple use at the intersection and medium density multiple use extended southerly approximatly 600 ft. and an additional approximate 200 ft. of low density as buffer between the single family residential area. Moved by Morris, seconded by Grant, to adopt the recom- mendation of the Planning Commission as outlined. Mr. Charles Littell, inquired for Gene Lynn & Associates whose property is located approximately 600 ft. from the corner, whether this affects their property upon which they propose to build a nursing home . Planning Director Ericksen noted that the property in question is included in the area. of Med-um Density Multiple Use and the nursing home would be allowed by Special Permit which is granted by the Planning Commission.

Planning Director Ericksen advised that the building and zoning ordinances provide for trailer Parks to be located in a T'-Zone but as far as the Comprehensive Plan is con- cerned no such designation..is given, Trailer. Parks to be incorporated within existing Multiple Use areas, two alternatives being considered,restrict them to existing multiple use areas, low, medium, density multiple use, or commercial or industrial areas, or possibility of allowing trailer parks on a Planned Unit Development basis with 2, 5, or 10 acre minimums, both proposals being under study at present.by the Planning Commission ITEM 10. NORTH RENTON AREA - Along Park Avenue North extending from Bronson Way North to North 6th Street, to Commercial as shown on existing Comprehensive Plan for approximately one -half block East and West of Park Avenue North. 4/29/68 Proposed as•;iulti-family residential (high density) 7/22/68 - Proposed as Commercial Audience comment was invited and Mrs. Josephine Peterson, 1458 Hillcrest Lane, asked whether this concerned 6th and Mayor Custer advised it is to remain as presently designated which is commercial with no changes to be made. ITEM 14. GLADDING. MCBEAN AREA bounded on the North by the Cedar River, on the South by ridge (line running SE from City of Seattle pipeline on the west to an ' intersecti6n of South 7th Avenue extended with 116th Avenue S.E . extended) now indicated as heavy industry and green belt. 4/29/68 - Proposed revision, first 150' depth abutting the river for recreation; next 500' to 600' depth for multi-family residential (high density) ; remainder for green belt. 7/22/68 Include the Haddad property as indicated on existing Comprehensive Plan (low density multi-family residential) Audience comment was invited. Mr. Byron Sneva, 10610 South 25th, Bellevue, on behalf of Puget Western, Inc., land adjacent to Gladding McBean, inquired whether sll ,of the land to the South of the railroad is designated Green Belt and the reply was affirmative Mr. Sneva called attention to _letter on file in regard to industrial uses extending East ward by the movement of considerable amount of earth from the area and in regard to the use from top of the bluff for residential purpose . Planning Director Ericksen noted • referral being to area GS'-1; and SR-1 and Industrial advising that with the exception of the area originally designated manufacturing now pr6posed high density multiple residential, the property is basically the same as on the existing plan. Mr. Harold Jordan, 11607 Maple Valley Hwy. , inquired regarding the Haddad property and was advised it has been included in this revision and is to be shown as low density multi-family residential. Councilman Perry requested clarification of low density as it relates to zoning and Planning Director Ericksen advised that this is the lowest category of multiple family. use under th�e'existing zoning ordinance and would be R-2 or SR-2 classification. Councilman Shane inquired regarding density under this and the medium density classification and Planning Direftor Ericksen advised that R-2 allows apartments by special permit and allows 29 units per acre and could go to maximum of 32-34 by special permit which gives the Commission some control if a unique location is concerned or where it may abut single family residential areas but there is no great restriction of use of property to anyone. Mr. Sneva inquired whether the extension of industrial use of Cladding McBean is limited by the present designation and if access were the problem. It was noted that the Planning Commission in its consideration had considered the access to be a problem the heavy industrial area left as shown with portion for the planned extension shown as green belt and portion previously indicated as manufacturing was shown as high density multi-family residential. Inquiry was made in regard to 150 ft. area designated"recreati.on"from the river and City Attorney Shellan pointed out that the City cannot designate private property as park or recreation use which would imply that it is to be for public i7rnFr.L':ia:; th%, only reservation otherwise -which can be made is where public health, sanitation .or welfare is concerned,.or"buil:di.ng,Lulless the Ciay buys the property. Further inquiry was made as to inclusion of the green belt area as it may be interpreted along this same line of reasoning and City•Attorney Shellan pointed out that there is no zoning Classification of Green Belt but the intent is to preserve the area and pro vetit enc�orarhmerit"by'industry Or- c6mmercial activities, and .keeping single family dwellings status quo. -Tri drdex to ire usable it has to be condemned and purchased by the City . The intent of*the' 0,ommi.ssion particularly along the 'river ,not to preclude development but fo •allow single' family at low density with large lot size. After proposed motion and subsoqu.eni withdrawal of 'the second, it was moved by Perry, seconded by Barei, that the rec6mmend�ation be revised to exclude the phrase 'first 1501depth abutting the riv4r for recreation' . Discussion ensued regarding the location which was stated to beton the opposite side of the .river. i -2- ------- 3,,,l Minutes - Special Meeting of the Renton City Council 7/29/68 PUBLIC HEARING: Proposed Revisions to Comprehensive Plan (Cont.) from the Maple Valley Highway and not covering Jordan or Haddad property.

Mr. Jones noted the property abuts the cemetery and that adjoining property provides access and they would request the L-1 for future purposes. Moved by Bruce, seconded by Garrett, that the proposed Comprehensive Plan Land use map show the subject property as Light Industrial. It was noted that this property is adjacent to the Monterey Terrace Residential area and that it had been discussed extensively by the Planning Commission with access being the basic question along with peculiar location and proximity to the Single Family use area. Dissenting voice vote brought roll call request which resulted as follows: Aye: rarrett, 'Bruce, Perry and Delaurenti. No: Barei, Shane, Grant, Maxin, Edwards Trimm and Morris, and the motion lost. Mr. G. T. McDaniel, 13613 S.E. 116th Street advised of his desire to construct two apartment units on his property located on S.E. 93rd street advising that he has ownership enough to successfully carry a sanitary sewer L.I.D. if the development Mr is permitted and that perc tests have been excellent. Newport Hills contractor is running new sewer lines in the 'area but funds are needed to support any L.I.b. which revenue from the apartments would accomplish in his case. Pictures were circulated of the proposed building and drawing displayed to show location of the property which is in the valley and designated as green belt area which indicates low density sig family le famil residential development at present„ A portion at: one time was included in the so--called May Creek Park area. The parcel contains approximal-.ely 20 acres however, apartments would not be permitted under•,the' present zoning designated. It was pointed out that this property has an access problem and in considering the overall area it was indicated that the Planned Unit Development was a possible solution.

The Planning Director advised that the land use is a projection of how the land is used and with reference to the plan indicates uses for the various areas which are implemented by the Zoning and Sub-Division Ordinances . The Planning Commis- sion designated North Renton access road as the Southerly boundary and extended it basically to cutback the area for designation of low density multiple use and apartments are included along 116th where it shows single family residential but this does not intend to eliminate use of those areas presently being used for apartments. • As there was no further discussion, it was moved by Morris, seconded by Perry, that the hearing be closed. Carried. The Hearing was declared closed and action -invited.

PUBLIC HEARING: Adoption of Comprehensive Plan for the City of Renton as revised This being the date set, the hearing was declared open. Gordon Ericksen, Planning Director , distributed brochure containing definitions of terms used in the Comprehensive Land Use Plan, along with map and list of proposed revisions, and pointed out that the intent of the new plan is not to be all inclusive and that it may be amended from time to time as necessary and desired. Changes effected on items previously discussed, 41-427,and addition of item 428 were noted, pursuant to matters as brought to attertion for consideration by the Planning Commission, the City Council,the property owners and representatives. Questions and comments we're invited. Councilman Shane called attention to a parcel of land located at the corner of 10th Avenue North and "M" Street, owned by St. Andrews Lodge, F. & A.M. of Renton, and proposed that the area, now designated single family residential, be tww shown as high density multiple family residential use. It was noted that this item was not included in the publication of properties listed for public hearing this evening and thus it should not be acted upon at this meeting. Discussion ensued regarding proximity of the subject property to single family residences, church and businesses, and possible spot zoning problem and zoning desirable for potential best development of the land. It was subsequently moved by Shane, and seconded by Grant,that the designation of the Land Use on this property from SR-1 to High Density Multiple r'amily Residential, requested by the Masonic Lode, be referred to the Planning Commission with direction that the' Commission hold a public hearing on the mat-(::�r and make its recommendation back to the Council as soon thereafter as passible. The motion carried. Opinions and interpretations of intent as to what the public hear lig tonig was to include were expressed and publication of proposed revisions was questioned, it being ,felt the hearic was to have covered the entire Comprehensive Plan for the City with any new or final revisions to be proposed to be heard, Mr. . Robert Wing of Puget Western, previously sub- mitted letter August 12th requestiiig revision to Plan, which Minute ent=•y was read at this time and had inclPd;:d setting cf August 9th for final hearing. (See later discussion) 38 z Minutes - Renton City Council Meeting 9/9/68 PUBLIC HEARING: Revisions to Comprehensive Plan (Cont.) It was pointed out that the 27 items on Exhibit B had been considered at prior public hearings and they should be considered at this time, new items to require publication, and further hearings. Also noted was fact that Item 28 had been heard before the Planning Commission and the Council and rejected at the Special Public Hearing by Council July 29. Audience comment was invited and Mr. Robert Wing, of Puget Western, Inc., Renton Village, referred to item 14 on Exhibit B, Cladding McBean-Haddad Area, and expressed concern for the Green Belt classification of portion of their property inquiring as to objective criteria for what may or may not be done by way of development. Exhibits and drawings were shown to illustrate development of proposed light industrial or manufacturing park type area which was felt to be the best and highest economic use for the land. Some donsiderable bank cuts were included, which were questioned, and Mr. Wing advised the engineers had assured such grade cuts will not be problematic to the area, noting also ••• favorable ground condition for the proposal with access being resolved. Definition of Green Belt, from brochure prepared by the Planning Department, was read which indicated Green Belt as a limited development area with severe topographic ` conditions,-ground-water, slide potential, subsoil or other physical conditions which i impair development, such areas intended to be developed in extremely low density single family, recreation, open space, or other compatible low density uses. Mr. Wing advised he had not seen this definition heretofore and that he felt the proposal for the light industrial-manufacturing park development would be a compatible, low density use. Property locations and ownerships were discussed and Mr. Mike Kochanek of Interpace, (Gladdirg McBean), 1500 Houser Way South, recalled growth of the company since 1880, deeming the plan for expansion and further development to be coming to a head concurrently with the completion of the Comprehensive Plan by the City, and requested the Council to consider the land use designation of manufacturing park for the subject area. Mr. Drew Miller, Pacific Coast Railroad representative and Mr. Paul Scott, Milwaukee Railroad Co., supported the request of Mr. Wing on behalf of the railroad company ownerships. Moved by Morris, seconded by Perry, that item 14, exhibit B, revisions to the Comprehensive Plan be revised with the first sentence remaining unchanged and the second to read,the area be revised to light industrial--manufacturing park is bounded on the north by the railroad right-of-way, on the south by a line 400' south of the railroad and on the east by the Cedar River. The remaining portion is greenbelt. Moved by Grant and 'seconded by Bruce, the motion be referred to the Planning Commission for recommendation. This motion lost. Moved by Barei, seconded by Garrett, to amend by inserting revision, of light industrial-manufacturing park bounded on the north by the railroad and extending 4001 southerly of said railroad line. The ameridment ca.rried(See -6-ter revision), and subsequently, the original motion, as amended. Councilman Garrett requested the Planning Director to locate property on the wall map to which request of Mr. Kay Jones had referred. This was identified on the map and on Exhibit B of proposed revisions to the Comprehensive Plan as Item No. 28, South Highlands Area. Moved by Garrett, seconded by Shane, to rezone this area to light industrial-manu- facturing park use. Proximity of the property to the Monterey Terrace residential area was noted along with fact that the item had not been included in the published list of. areas for hearing this date, but that it had been before the Planning Commission and the Council during public hearings on the plan. Mr. Kay Jones, Mgr. and Vice-President of Stoneway Concrete, Inc., 1815 Maple Way, advised the property is lower than the Monterey Terrace area, recalled prior discussions at hearings with main problems of ingress, egress and screening noted to be zoning functions to be considered by the Planning Com- mission according to regulations and inquired regarding publication procedure. After discussion and report of.publication authorization the pending motion was voted upon and declared lost. Roll call. was requested and the vote was taken as follows: Aye: Garrett, Barei, Shane and Bruce. No: Grant, Maxin, Trimm, Perry and Morris. The motion lost, 4 to 5. Moved by Grant, seconded by Shane, the City Clerk have notice of proposed revision to the Comprehensive Plan, #28 on Exhibit B, published and the matter-be taken up by tyre Council at a public hearing at the earliest possible date. Carried. (See later action setting date for continued hearing) Moved by Shane, seconded by Bruce, to recess. The motion carried and recess was declare After the recess, roll call was taken with all Councilmen present as previously listed. Audience cornment was invited.Mr. Arne Hagen, Trustee on .the Bi.ailding Committee for the Masonic Lodge, inquired regarding action taken earlier on property located at 10th and "M" Street, and steps to be taken further by the Lodge accordingly, calling attention to prior attendance at a public hearing, and noting proximity of the subject property to businesses and church property9 stated it was not surrounded by single family housing. Mayor Custer outlined actions taken heretofore on the matter noting that at this time in accordanca with motion made earlier the matter will. be heard by the Planning Commission and subsequently by the Council as 'required under due process of law, and could possibly be considered as amendment at a later date if such ordinance were sub- sequeytl�� adopted to effect the change. It was suggested that the Planning Department be contacted so ' a representative can attend the Commission nearing and if Council so acts, any further Council hearing which may be held. a _ E c S , c Minutes - Rentor. City Council Meeting 9/9/68 PUBLIC HEARING: Revised Comprehensive Plan. - (Cont.) Mr. Stanley Stone, 2000 Rolling Hills Ave. So., addressed the Co>>ncil regarding Item 25 on Exhibit B of revisions and advised that he owns Lot 21 which abuts the area Mr. Hutchens has requested be shown medium density. Concern was expressed for possible higher density ' being granted through special permit, it being noted that those who came into the area sub- sequent to the multi-family developments now in existence, had relied upon current GS-1 and recommended SR-1 designations and potential possibility of multiple abutting rolling hills was now of concern. The some 140 residents objecting otherwise would not oppose the low density designation. Mr. Lennie Hutchens stated he had been more than fair in requesting lower zoning and in ..offering one-half the land as a buffer area to protect these people than has been required and he did not feel he should be denied the right to develop his property as requested, especially in view of the R-4, R-3 and R-2 across the street and all down the road. He noted that special permit need not be granted if the Planning Commission did not wish one i.,sued whether he or anyone else were to apply. Considerable discussion ensued and upon inquiry, Planning Director Ericksen outlined corresponding designations of land uses with zonings, noting low density to be R-2, medium density, R-3 and High, R-4 and Planning Commission proposal that the entire area be low density multiple family use since there isa strip of R-3 on 106th S.E. Rights of the property owners to develop as well as property buyers to be protected, were discussed along with heights allowed in each multiple use area and effect considering elevations of the property extending towards the rolling hills area. Mr. Harold Jorgensen, 3287 Court B agreed with statements of Mr. Stone and stated that at the time he purchased his property he had been told it would be low density and that multiple would not extend up any further than Thunder Hill. Mr. Dave Parsons, 1903 S.E. Taylor Court, advised after considering the matter it had been suggested that R-3 be divided; with 106th SE as the line and come on up with R-2 and R-1 and the other agruments stand. It,was subsequently moved by Barei, seconded by Perry, to show the westerly 300 ft. as low density multiple family residential and the easterly remaining portion as single family residential. The motion lost by roll call vote as follows: Aye: Morris, Perry, Grant %W and Barei. No: Garrett, Trimm, Maxin, Bruce and Shane. Mr. Hutchens having explained that this would pose the same problem for him as the others were now protesting, pointed ,. out also that property around his still undeveloped was owned by the Thunder Hills de- velopers and could go to R-4 and stated with present construction across Puget Drive of 122 15 and 18 story buildings his property as single family residential would be of no use as no one would want to build a home among all the apartments and office buildings, as evidenced by present objectors who do not even want medium density near their homes. After further discuGsion and proposals of motions not accepted by the Chair with regard to possible withholding of rights to variance or special permit, it was moved by Barei, seconded by Grant, that the entire area as described in item 25 of exhibit B of proposed revisions to the Comprehensive Plan be designated as low density multi-family residential use. After dissenting voice vote, roll call was requested and resulted as follows: Aye: Garrett, Morris, Perry, Trimm, Grant, Barei.. No: Maxin, Bruce and Shane. Carried. Planning Director Ericksen noted need for revision of description in item 14, it being discovered that by using the freeway as the westerly boundary a portion of Renton Hill would be included and it was suggested the term freeway be revised to indicate westerly line of Interpace. Moved by Morris, seconded by Grant, the revision to item 14 state: "The area revised to low density multi-family is bounded on the north by the Cedar Rivor on the south by the railroad, and the west by Sec. 16-23-15. The area revised to light industrial or manufacturing park is bounded on the south by a line 400' south of the rail- road, on the west by the westerly R/W line of Grant Street extended north to the Railroad R/w, and on the east by the Cedar River. The remaining porti6n of the area, Green Belt, (limited development area) . Carried. Inquiry was made in regard to Stoneway Concrete, Inc. property, Item 28 and City Attorney Shellan advised that the matter had been before both the Planning Commission and the City Council but if desired the hearing could be continued with part of the items referred to the ]Law and Ordinance Committee and when the additional items have been disposed of they would be referred to the Committee for an amending ordinance . Discussion ensued it being noted that public hearing would not be required on item 25 but would be on the new item #28. Moved by Barei, second by Garrett, that the hearing be closed on items 1 through 27, except item 28 on schedule B, proposed revisions to the Comprehensive Plan, and that October 14 be set for continued hearing on this mattes Moved by Shane, seconded by Grant, that the Masonic Lodge property hearing be held on October 1.4 as well. The amendment carried and subsequently the original motion a, amended. Moved by Barei, seconded by Perry the first 27 items be referred to the Law and Ordinance Cc:n,it',ee_. Carried.

PUBLIC HEARING: Establishing a Coordinated Grid System of New Street Designations. This being the date set, the hearing was declared open. Mayor Custer made a presentation regarding the proposed street renaming program recalling initial implementation by the prior city council and noting changes effected heretofore in the downtown core area of the city and vicinity under the first phase of the program. Map of the proposed grid system was displayed which divided the city into six sections a 330 ft. block system being used in converting addresses, the new designations to eliminate conflicting systems now operating in the city, to facilitate emergency (police and fire, etc.) service, to standardize and improve street name signs, provide more convenient and logical three and four digit numbering system and allowing less problem in regard to locating addresses. Discussion ensued regarding effect the changes will have upon property deeds and titles of record, Mayor Custer noting the County will be notified of the changes along with 12 or so other entities. Audience comment was invited and Mr. Frank Storey inquired regarding street naming process and as to details of the map as far as division lines are concerned. Mode of segregation of areas and selection of dividing lines for the six—part division of the City were discussed, Mayor Custer outlining same on the wall map and noting freeways and terrain as being conducive factors. During further discussion, question was raised whether or not to designate block numbers on the signs, Mayor Custer noting additional costs to be involved in such event with $130.15 being estimated as cost at present,without numbers,for each sign. (See action and later motion to refer to the Street and Alley Committee for a recommendation) . Upon inquiry of Mr. Norman Ross, time element was discussed with regard to notification to various residents, firms and agencies who will need to reprogram computers and revise operations to correct directories, billings, stationery and other documents which might contain addresses, Mrs. Margaret Evans urging adequate public notice to avoid criticism. Proposed motion to continue the hearing with referral to committee failed, the time aspect with regard to conversions and public notification being emphasized. Matter of name selection was discussed including comment of Mr. Vaughn that names of cities may cause mail conflict. Various recommendations for name changes were made and it was moved by Perry, seconded by Grant that "H" Place be called Iowa Street rather than Index Avenu N . E . The motion carried. (See later rescinding action) . Moved by Grant, seconded by Shane, that IIJII Street be named Kennedy Street, rather than Kirkland Avenue N.E. Costs involved in revision to the signs were discussed and suggestions followed that names of pioneers and early developers and prominent local persons be used in street naming rather than cities and states, Mrs. Evans expressing opinion that streets with names of the early residents should remain unchanged, noting that Grandey Way is not connected with the Monterey Terrace area. The pending motion carried. (See later rescinding action) . Moved by Grant, seconded by Shane that I'M" Street , North of Sunset Blvd, be named Nixon Street rather than Newport Avenue N.E . Upon dissenting voice vote, roll call was taken as follows: Aye: Schellert, Bruce, Grant and Shane. No: Garrett, Morris, Delaurenti, Perry, Tdwards, Mein and Barei.

Traffic Engineer Rick Silva noted little objection during address survey by house check. Moved by Barei, seconded by Morris, to rescind the previous action in reference to substituting Iowa for Index and Kennedy for Kirkland designations.

The voice vote on the motion was dissenting and roll call resulted as follows: Aye: Garrett, Morris, Schellert, Delaurenti, Edwards, Bruce and Barei. No: Perry, Maxin, Grant and Shane. The motion failed since a motion to rescind requires 2/3 majority to carry3 the motion to reconsider requiring only a majority affirmative vote. It was subsequently moved by Garrett, seconded by Morris, to change the Iowa designation back to Index Avenue N .E. and Kennedy Avenue back to Kirkland Avenue N.E. Grant called for point of order inquiring whether the motion was dilatory and in effect a rescinding action. Attorney Shellan advised that dilatory actions are delaying actions and the motion to change the street names,which is an independent motion,is in order and a legal one although it may serve to get around the action previously taken, delaying action being evident all through the proceedings on this matter heretofore .

This being the date set, the hearing was declared open. There were no written communi- cations received and audience comment was invited. Mr. Thomas F. Myers, Vice-President of Washington Wholesalers, Inc., addressed the Council. It was requested that one parking stall be allowed for every 1500 sq. ft. of area rather than the 800 sq. ft. as required, no deviation being requested from the office parking space requirements but only insofar as the warehouse area is concerned. An estimate of 92 stalls was noted as probable future use requirement with only employees and sales representatives to be utilizing the parking and no public vehicles involved and the 139 stalls requested rather than 205 required were deemed to be more than adequate. If the variance were not allowed it would be necessary to lease extra land which would in fact never be used, or as an alternative to abandon part of the. use of the building, a mezzanine now being planned to house a computer system and question being posed as to whether such area r..t should be considered in the space included in parking requirements. During discussion and inquiries, truck loading and maneuvering zones were mentioned it being noted that other warehouse operations in the vicinity had complied and hardship must exist to qualify for variance. Attention was called to action by the Planning Commission to revise the code requirements in regard to the warehouse parking and the recommendation will be one stall for each 1200 or 1500 sq. ft. of area which proposal will be forthcoming in the near future.
