RENTON CITY COUNCIL
• REGULAR MEETING
April 7, 2008
Monday, 7 p.m.

2. ROLL CALL
3. SPECIAL PRESENTATION: King County Council President Julia Patterson report to Council
4. APPEAL: Planning& Development Committee Report re: T-Mobile Monopole Conditional
Use Permit
INABILITY OF THE CITY COUNCIL TO TAKE TESTIMONY ON APPEALS DURING THE CITY
COUNCIL MEETING
State law requires that the City establish a process to handle appeals from application of environmental and
developmental rules and regulations. The Renton City Council,feeling it was best for the elected
representatives to handle the appeals rather than require citizens to go to court,has retained appellate
jurisdiction to itself.
The courts have held that the City Council,while sitting as an appellate body,is acting as a quasi-judicial
body and must obey rules of procedure of a court more than that of a political body.
• By City Code, and by State law,the City Council may not consider new evidence in this appeal. The parties
to the appeal have had an opportunity to address their arguments to the Planning&Development
Committee of the City Council at a meeting previously held. Because of the court requirements prohibiting
the City Council from considering new evidence, and because all parties have had an opportunity to address
their concerns to the Planning&Development Committee,the City Council may not consider oral or written
testimony at the City Council meeting. The Council understands that this is frustrating to citizens and is
outside the normal process of open discourse provided to citizenry during the audience comment portion of
the City Council meeting. However,this burden of not allowing the Council to be addressed concerning
pending appeals is outweighed by the quick, easy,inexpensive and local appeal process provided by the
Renton City Council.

DATE: April 7, 2008
TO: Marcie Palmer, Council President
Members of the Renton City Council
FROM: Denis Law, Mayor
Jay Covington, Chief Administrative Officer
SUBJECT: Administrative Report
In addition to our day-to-day activities, the following items are worthy of note for this week:
• Come celebrate spring in downtown Renton on Saturday, April 19, from noon to 5 p.m. at the
Piazza on the corner of South 3rd Street and Burnett Avenue South. The 6th Annual Piazza
Renton Spring Festival will be a lively event that includes live music, children's activities,
food, Farmers Market vendors, and arts and crafts. You can also try your luck in the 3rd
Annual Downtown Renton Poker Run from noon to 4 p.m. (starting at the Piazza) and enjoy
art at the open-air Arts Unlimited Gallery in the park across Logan Avenue South. These
events will be fun for the whole family. Questions? Please contact Jennifer Davis-Hayes at
425-430-6589.
• Improvements to Burnett Linear Park, between South 6th Street and South 7th Street, will
commence in this month as part of the Burnett Park Phase II Capital Improvement Project.
Improvements include a widened and relocated walkway, a new seating area with relocated
artwork, entry signage, new irrigation, and landscaping. The project will include the removal
of six large London plane trees, three pear trees, and one ponderosa pine. The 30-year-old
London plane trees were planted too closely together and too close to the walkway, causing
the existing walkway to heave. The remaining trees to be removed would have interfered
with a relocated and widened walkway. Five new trees will be planted in more appropriate
large open areas. Construction is expected to begin in mid-April and continue through mid-
July 2008.

• King County Fire Protection District No. 39 is the successor in interest to all rights and
obligations of the Federal Way Fire Department and will be recognized as such for all

DATE: March 25, 2008
TO: Marcie Palmer, Council President
Members of the Rentoryy Council
VIA: Denis Law, Mayor
FROM: Jay Covington, CAO
SUBJECT: Ratification of First Amendment to Valley Communications
Center Interlocal Agreement
ISSUE:
Shall the City of Renton agree to an amendment to Valley Communications Center's
governing interlocal agreement that authorizes member city rates for Valley Regional
Fire Authority and changes references to the Federal Way Fire Department to King
County Fire Protection District No. 39, the agency's legal name?
•
RECOMMENDATION:
Authorize Mayor Denis Law to ratify the First Amendment to Valley Communications
Center's governing interlocal agreement.
BACKGROUND:
Valley Communications Center (VCC) customer agencies pay for emergency call
receiving and dispatch services based on each agency's total dispatched calls for service.
However, member cities pay a lower rate than contract agencies.
When VCC's governing interlocal agreement was rewritten in 2000 to include Federal
Way as a member city, it was agreed to extend the member city rate to King County Fire
Protection District#39 (KCFPD #39)because the Fire District provided service to
Federal Way. Since January 1, 2007, the Valley Regional Fire Authority (VRFA) has
provided fire protection services for the City of Auburn in the same manner that
KCFPD #39 serves Federal Way.
When Federal Way was included as a member city of VCC in 2000, KCFPD #39
provided fire protection service doing business as the Federal Way Fire Department. The
Fire District is now doingbusiness as South KingFire and Rescue, and continues to
provide fire protection service to Federal Way.

• Acknowledge that KCFPD #39 is successor to the Federal Way Fire Department and
shall be recognized as such for allu oses under the agreement.

SUMMARY OF ACTION:
After conducting a national executive recruitment, Mayor Law has appointed Nancy Carlson to replace
Michael Webby as the City's new Human Resources Administrator. Nancy is scheduled to begin her
service here in Renton April 7, 2008. Renton Municipal Code Title III, Chapter 6 requires Council
confirmation of the Mayor's appointment to this position. Under City Policy and Procedure 300-41,
Council must also approve starting salary above step C.
Given Ms Carlson's background and qualifications, the Administration is recommending a beginning
salary at the "E" step of salary grade m49. Because this is the grade and step of the former HR&RM
Administrator, there will be no budget impact. Ms. Carlson will also be granted an initial sick leave and
vacation balance.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
The Administration recommends that Council confirm the appointment of Nancy Carlson as the new
Human Resources Administrator, effective April 7, 2008, and approve her salary at the "E" step of the

DATE: April 2, 2008
TO: Marcie Palmer, Council President
Members of the Renton City Council
VIA: Denis Law, Mayor
FROM: Jay Covington, Chief Administrative Officer
SUBJECT: Council Confirmation of Appointment of Nancy arlson as Human
Resources Administrator, and approval of Compensation at the "E" step of
Salary Grade m49
ISSUE:
Should the Council approve the appointment of Nancy Carlson as the City's new Human
Resources Administrator, and set her compensation at step "E" of salary grade m49?
RECOMMENDATION:
Approve the appointment of Nancy Carlson as the city's new Human Resources Administrator, at
the "E" step of the salary grade for the position,in recognition of her experience and expertise.
BACKGROUND:
Michael Webby retired from the City March 7th of this year. After conducting a national
executive recruitment,Nancy Carlson was selected to replace Michael Webby as the City's new
Human Resources Administrator. Nancy is scheduled to begin her service here in Renton April
7, 2008. Renton Municipal Code Title III, Chapter 6 requires Council confirmation of the
Mayor's appointment to this position. Under City Policy and Procedure 300-41, Council must
also approve starting salary above step C.
Nancy comes to us with significant knowledge and experience in Human Resources, and spent
part of her career working here in King County. She understands the challenges of helping us
manage the city's growing and diverse work force and achieving our goal of having the most
effective and efficient city government in the Puget Sound region. She has a strong background
in labor relations and employee issues, and we are confident she will build upon the positive and
productive relationships and practices Mike Webby and the entire HR team developed during
Mike's tenure here.
Carlson has over 15 years of senior and executive level management experience in the field of
human resources and labor relations in Alaska, Washington and California. Prior to her
I I
accepting the position here in Renton, she served as the Human Resources Director for the City •
of Fremont, CA, since 2002. Prior to that,Nancy served as labor relations director for Kaiser
Permanente Hospitals and Swedish Medical Center. She was also assistant director/labor
relations manager for King County's Office of Human Resource Management in 1993. In that
capacity,Nancy was the county's lead spokesperson for human resource issues during the
Metro/King County consolidation.
Because of Nancy's experience and expertise, and to bring her salary closer to the salary she
received in Fremont, we have agreed to start her at the "E" step of salary grade m49. Since that
is the grade and step Mike Webby received when he was here, there will be no budget impact.
Nancy will also receive an initial sick leave and vacation balance in recognition of her forfeiting
both in order to come to Renton.

Re: 409 Whitworth,LUA 07-125, SA-H, ECF
Request for Reconsideration
Dear Mr. Deacy:
This office has reviewed your Request for Reconsideration and the response follows.
This office has to reluctantly abide by its original decision. There needs to be a balancing of
interests when the Zoning Code permits more intense uses to encourage changes the City wants in
its basic character but elements of the Comprehensive Plan and the Site Plan Ordinances suggest
toning down the disparities between older uses and newer uses.
This office still believes that reducing the height of the building is a reasonable compromise but it
is still a compromise and not all of the profound impacts of this larger scale building can be
reduced while honoring the Zoning Code and the vision of a more dense downtown area.
You may proceed with your appeal including this letter to the City Council.
• If this office can provide any additional assistance,please feel free to write.
Sincerely,
Fred Kaufman
Hearing Examiner

The hearing opened with a presentation of the staff report by Elizabeth Higgins, Senior Planner,Development
• Services, City of Renton, 1055 S Grady Way, Renton,Washington 98055. The project is a condominium
project and is located in the Center Downtown zone. The zoning changes at the Burlington Northern/Santa Fe
Railroad tracks and becomes residential. The property fronts on Whitworth Avenue South and is backed by an
alley that runs north/south between Whitworth and Shattuck. It would be located on a single-family residential
lot that is one lot south of 4th Place. McClendon's is located to the west and St. Anthony's Catholic Church is
located to the north, on the north side of 4th Place.
The neighborhood has been developed with single-family residential uses since the 1920's, there are some
conversions of single-family properties into other uses including office space.
The project would have parking on the ground level with four levels of residential units above that. Vehicles
would access the parking garage via the alley, there is no access to the garage via Whitworth. There would be
open space on the roof level for the residents' use. The building would be approximately 60-feet tall with
articulation on the front and rear facades. The north and south facades would be less articulated.
The building would be built up to the north and south property lines to within two feet. There would be setbacks
from the east and west property lines. A split rail fence would screen the refuse area and three surface parking
areas outside the parking garage. The parking requirement is for 21 spaces,three of the required spaces would
need to be outside of the building.
The density of the project would be 97 du/acre,building area would be 22,542 square feet including the parking
level. The alley would be improved from the southwest corner of the property to S 4th Place at a width of 16
feet.
• Fire, Parks and Transportation Fees would be imposed on this project. An avigation easement would also be
required from the applicant.

The Environmental Review Committee submitted a Determination of Non-Significance—Mitigated with 11
measures. No appeals were filed.
The project is located in the Center Downtown Designation zone and meets the Land Use Element and
Community Design Element of the Comprehensive Plan. There are some conflicts between policies and
development standards throughout this zone. There are requirements to preserve trees,however, there are no
trees on the property. It has been asked that an expanded landscape plan be submitted showing the addition of
trees and other landscaping.
There are no applicable lot size, width or depth standards in this zone. The limitation of coverage on the
property by a structure is 75%when parking is provided within the structure. The proposed structure would
cover approximately 74% of the property. There are front and rear setbacks, the side setbacks are one foot
eleven inches and one foot on the north and south sides. There would be parking and refuse collection in the
rear setback, that does not seem to be in conflict with the project.
Landscaping has been planned for, and it has been suggested that a trellis and some vines be planted along the
side of the building. The front yard setback requirement is 10 feet from the property line for the first 25 feet of
building height and above 25 feet the building is to be setback 15 feet from the property line. For this particular
project the front setback for the first 25 feet is 10 feet,but it shows a setback of 13'8-1/2" and levels 2 through 5
would be setback 15'1-1/2" from the east property line.
The Examiner inquired if the front yard setback could be changed through a modification further down the •
process, as what happened with the project on Williams about a block from City Hall, where the building was
redesigned after a public hearing, the public accepted the project and expected the design to be followed, and
now the building has turned into something very different.
Elizabeth Higgins stated that this project has had several minor modifications. They are required to adhere to
the minimum setback requirements. They could request a variance.
The criteria for site plan review includes mitigation of impacts to surrounding property uses. There are some
conflicts between the criteria and what is allowed. This is the first significant impact on a neighborhood in this
area. It will be a noticeable and visible impact.
There definitely has been an attempt to have the face of the building compatible with the character of the
neighborhood, it's not just a blank wall on the eastern side. People living on either side are most likely going to
remain. Smaller lots probably could not be developed with a project of this size. They did meet with the project
proponent and suggest they try to incorporate the abutting properties into the project, especially the property to
the north. It appears that the property to the north could not be developed with a similar project due to the size.
Photographs of the site showing the north and south property stakes were viewed showing how the proposed
building would impact these adjacent properties. One of the criteria states that there should not be any blank
walls, it is not clear if blank walls are permitted on sidewalls.
The Environmental Review Committee was concerned about the increase in traffic in the neighborhood. This is
a dead end street and alley. There would be a restriction on parking on S 4th Place, so that cars pulling out of the
alley or out of Whitworth would have clear visibility on S 4th Place.
A homeowners association was recommended for the maintenance of the building and e •

Kent Smutny,TSA Architects, 10800 NE 8th Street, Ste. 300,Bellevue, WA 98004 stated they are the architects
for this project. He brought boards that show rough views of the project. They illustrate how the building is
being stepped. The building steps back I'll"from the north property line, further back on that same side the
building is basically at the property line. A trellis could be constructed on the side of the building to help lessen
the impact of that wall. Further to the west on the north side,reveals could be added to help minimize the.
impact. Above the parking level the middle of the north wall is set back 5 feet from the property line. The
northeast corner of the building is stepped back 12 feet from the north property line and the northwest corner is
set back 9 feet from the north property line.
At the southeast corner at ground level the set back is one foot and again a trellis and vine could be added to
lessen the impact. Seven and a half feet back from the south property line in the front is the elevator shaft. The
top floor on the southwest corner is set back 19 feet from the south property line. Above the 25-foot level the
areas projecting out from the building are bay windows and overhangs.
Jeff Wolfson,PO Box 6602, Kent,WA 98064 stated that he is a landowner in the Benson Hill Community. The
planned development meets all building criteria for the downtown corridor development and offers future
homeowners easy access to downtown Renton and all basic needs and services. All necessary utilities are
available to this project. The creation of affordable housing will bring new homeowners to the downtown area.
Olaf Willey, 103 Logan Avenue S,Renton, WA 98057 stated that he is the owner of this property and read a
statement in support of this development,which will make more affordable housing available. Five out of 14
properties on the street are owner occupied. Downtown living affords the residents access to all the City has to
offer.
Amrik Kamoh, 9423 NE 130th Place, Kirkland, WA 98034 stated that he owns property at 109 Logan Avenue
and supports the development of thisproperty. He feels this improvement is important to the people in the
downtown area,more people will revitalize the downtown businesses in the City of Renton.
415 Whitworth Avenue Renton, WA 98057 stated that she lives in the house just south of this
Wilma Kozai, S, �
proposed condominium. This large structure will be one foot away from her house, she will no longer have any
privacy in her yard with the decks that will protrude from the building. The elevator will be located very close
and she has no idea of the noise when that runs day and night. She was also concerned about the back alley and
her access to her garage, there is very little room now for her to access her garage,but with the construction of
this building, she may have even less access.
She further questioned if this site was in the Downtown Core or the Mixed Use Zone, there seems to be a
conflict in the staff report. No one ever talked to her about selling her property, or how this building would
impact her, or anything else. She does not approve of this project.
Matt Deacy, was speaking for his parents Mr. and Mrs.Harold Deacy who reside at 407 Whitworth Avenue S,
the house to the north of this project. There are several references in the report to the adverse impacts to their
property. Harold Deacy has lived in this house his entire life,his father build the house in 1925. Harold
Deacy's hobby for the last 50 years has been gardening,this construction will block the sun from his house and
will eliminate the use and enjoyment of his property. They recognize that the zoning has changed and
developments are allowed,they just didn't realize how great the negative impact would be on them. No one has
made any offers to them nor have they been contacted by anyone. They had no idea that this project was even
• being considered. They request that the City not approve this project.
Louis Barei, 614 S 18th Street, Renton, WA 98055 stated that he owns the house at 417 Whitworth Avenue S,
the house was built in 1926 by his grandfather. He understands that progress must be made in the City of
409 Whitworth Site Approval

Renton,however his primary objection is that the very first development is an interior lot impacting everybody
both north and south. Even though he is two houses away,the impact will still be on his property. The property
value is only part of the issue, the quality of life is very important. If you own property next to a condominium
and people don't want to live next to it,that diminishes the value of the property. It seems reasonable that in the
future people will not want to be living in his rental property. The increase in property value will only increase
property taxes. This project damages rather than enhances his property. The neighborhoods have to be thought
about and protected, it is the duty of the City to do that and if the City does not do that,then they are all lost.
What is allowed does not always turn out to be what is necessary.
Elizabeth Higgins stated that the proposed set back from Ms. Kozai's property is about a foot and a half from
the property line not from the house to the south. She does have a side yard of about four feet.
If a building is constructed right on the property line,would there need to be a construction easement on the
abutting properties in order for the forms to be put in for the pouring of concrete for foundations.
The Examiner stated that he was not sure, one would presume that there were be various easements between
property owners. There also has to be maintenance, anything built on that property, the construction crew
cannot intrude into the neighboring property to the north or south to build this without the owner's permission.
Elizabeth Higgins further stated that when she said she understood that other people in the neighborhood wanted
to stay in their homes, that was from the calls and letters that were sent to her. She did not initiate any
conversations with the neighbors. It also was her understanding that the neighbors were approached and
4111 conversations had been had regarding this project.
Rosalie Higgins,417 Whitworth Avenue S.,Renton, WA 98057 stated she has lived there 16 years, she attends
St. Anthony's Church and enjoy all her neighbors. Her daughter lives next door at 419 Whitworth and another
daughter owns the house at 420 Whitworth. This project is way too huge for the neighborhood. It will impact
the traffic and parking. Many times when she comes home from grocery shopping and there is no available
parking on her street. Access to the alley is blocked with people picking up their children from school.
Stephanie Clarey,419 Whitworth Avenue S,Renton,WA 98057 commented on the statement made by
Elizabeth Higgins regarding the project on Williams Ave and the fact that new zoning has gone through to
prohibit future structures from protruding onto the sidewalk in that neighborhood. Ms. Higgins further stated
that she sees that happening to this neighborhood. That would mean that once this project is built,the zoning
could be changed and then even more so the property values would go down.
Also in the Renton Magazine the last issue talked about the Historic Districts within the City of Renton,it listed
the Renton High School,Uptown Glassworks, Old Milwaukee Station,and of the downtown Renton churches
all which are within a one-mile radius of our neighborhood. Is there a way that the Washington State Historic
District could have the neighborhood preserved as part of the original history of Renton.
The Examiner stated he could not answer that, they would have to speak to someone else. Timing is a great
issue, the applicant is working with the owner and they are entitled to develop at the current zoning, it is called
vesting. In reviewing the project he may determine that it should be scaled back because it doesn't integrate
well in the existing community or the project may be determined appropriate given the fact that the
Comprehensive Plan does suggest change for this area and the first change is always very dramatic,he will •
consider the testimony along with the building form, its massing and scale and make a decision. The neighbors
or applicant both have the right to ask for a reconsideration of the decision if they think there was an error made,
or they may appeal to the Council and point out anything wrong with the project, the Council could overturn the
Examiner's decision, and beyond that,people could take the whole matter to court.

Katherine Deacy,407 Whitworth Avenue S,Renton,WA 98057 stated that she wonders what the City is
thinking,they told the residents to fight this all the way. Then they told the developers to go higher,they started
with three stories.
Kayren Kittrick,Development Services stated that discussions from the ERC showed concern about the sight
distance coming off the alley. She was interested in hearing from Rosalie Higgins that the St. Anthony's parents
are parking over there and that is not supposed to be happening. The alley would be paved out to 16 feet,but
that does not allow parking, it is for access only. During construction,access is required to be maintained,
however they will be allowed to have traffic control plans, during paving, etc.there will be times when the alley
will have to be closed in order to work on it.
Olaf Willey stated that on May 17,he had Trish Johanson, his realtor, submit an offer to Deacy's,they spoke
with them and the offer was mailed,his mother went to the local retirement community and spoke with them
and checked into an annuity so they not only could purchase the property outright for$500,000.There was an
option of selling both properties at the same time which would have meant$450 plus another$100 in cash at
closing,which would have been$550,000 plus they would have gotten an annuity and the money would have
paid for retirement for 10 years and at the end of that period,there would have been a lump sum left. This was
more than a simple purchase and sale agreement. He did not speak to the neighbors to the south,he was out of
the loop at that point.
Matt Deacy stated that his parents never got anything in the mail about an offer,they had talked to Trish with
• the understanding that there was a party that was interested in the house,but they did not realize that they were
dealing with a developer. The original story was that this individual had bought the house so his parents could
move up from Portland. They had no idea that a 5-story building would be built next door to them.
Trish Johanson,Realtor, 6161 NE 175th, Ste. 200,Kenmore, WA 98028 stated that the person who purchased
this property did want his parents who visited from Portland to stay there. Down the road things changed, there
was an interested party in the property and that is where the developers came about. She further submitted faxed
letters in support of this project.
The Examiner called for further testimony regarding this project. There was no one else wishing to speak, and
no further comments from staff. The hearing closed at 10:55 am.

5. A number of neighboring property owners opposed the project as too large and tall and introducing too
much traffic into the neighborhood. They were particularly concerned about shadowing and shading of
adjacent parcels as well as the loss of privacy from a tall building overlooking their homes and private
yard space. There was concern that such a large building would make other properties on the block less
hospitable,both owner-occupied homes and rental units for tenants.
6. The subject site is located at 409 Whitworth Avenue South. The property is located on the west side of
Whitworth one lot south of S 4th Place. An alley runs along the rear or west side of the lot and Shattuck
Avenue South is located west of the alley. Whitworth is a deadend street in this location with the
railroad tracks located south of the block. The alley also deadends to the south.
7. Saint Anthony's church is located north of S 4th Place. A single family home with a large south yard
and garden is located north of the subject site. Single-family homes are located east of the site across
Whitworth and south of the subject site. West, across the alley, are additional single-family homes and
an office.
8. The map element of the Comprehensive Plan designates the area in which the subject site is located as
suitable for the development of urban center-downtown uses,but does not mandate such development
without consideration of other policies of the Plan.
9. The subject site is currently zoned CD(Center Downtown).
10. The subject site was annexed to the Citywith the adoption of Ordinance 156 enacted in May 1909. •
J
11. The subject site is approximately 7,199 square feet. The parcel is 60 feet wide along Whitworth by
119.99 feet deep.
12. The subject site is level. There is no significant vegetation on the site. An existing two-story, single
family home is located on the subject site. The home would be removed if the proposal were approved.
13. Access to the front of the property is along Whitworth on the east and to the rear of the parcel along the
alley on the west side of the parcel. The alley is a partially improved roadway 16 feet wide.
14. The applicant proposes erecting a condominium complex on the subject site. The building would
contain 16 residential units in a five-story(5-story)building.
15. The building would be 60 feet 4-1/2 inches tall. The CD zone permits buildings 95 feet tall (with
provisions for taller buildings).
16. The proposed building would cover 74 percent of the site. The zone permits 75 percent coverage when
structured parking is used. Most of the parking, 18 stalls,would be contained in a first-level garage,
with three (3) surface parking stalls in the rear,outside of the building.
17. The front yard or east setback would be 13 feet 8-1/2 inches at ground level and 15 feet 1-1/2 inches
above that. The front yard setback requirement in the CD zone is 10 feet from the property line for the •
first 25 feet of building height and above 25 feet the building is to be setback 15 feet from the property
line. Projections of roofs and decks above ground would intrude into the setback approximately 2 to 4
feet. The proposed "projections" would require a variance, which has not been approved.

18. The side yard setbacks would be one foot on the south side and 1 foot 11 inches on the north side,at
ground level. The setbacks would increase above ground level and vary due to articulations or
modulations in the facades above the ground level. No side yard setbacks are required unless it would
be along a street. The CD zone permits zero setbacks and allows buildings to attach to one another.
19. The rear or west side setback would be 15 feet 2-1/2 inches. It would be used for three surface parking
stalls and garbage collection. No rear yard is required unless it abuts a residential zone.
20. The entire structure would contain 22,542 gross square feet.
21. Open space is provided within the building envelope on the south side of the 5th floor, 311 square feet,
and the east side of the roof, 1,594 square feet.
22. The density for the building would be 97 dwelling units per acre. The CD zone permits a maximum
density of 100 dwelling units per acre(and up to 150 with a Conditional Use Permit).
23. The building's exterior treatment would consist of split-face, 8 inch by 16 inch,cement masonry units
(CMU) on the lower levels and Hardie siding and Hardie panels with 2 by 2 battens on the upper levels.
The roofs would be shed or pitched with asphalt shingles. Vinyl framed windows would be provided
with more windows on the east and west facades facing the street and alley and fewer windows on the
north and south where future adjacent development could potentially block views. Balconies would be
located on the east and west facades, again,opening out to the street and alley,respectively. The

garage would be the dominant ground level element. It would have metal louvers over parking garage
wall openings and a built-in planter box will provide some landscape screening of the parking garage
facade.
25. The applicant has proposed incorporating three trees in the front yard area that staff noted are very small
in size and not suited to an urban, five-story building. They proposed no street trees although code and
comprehensive plan provisions require street trees. The applicant suggested that trellis elements could
be included along the north facade to introduce some landscaping materials in this area.
26. The project would generate approximately 80 new daily vehicles trips with 6 peak hour trips in the a.m.
and 7 peak hour trips in the p.m.
27. The subject site is located in the Airport Influence Area AIA and below the flight path to and from
J IP (AIA) g
Renton Municipal Airport. It will not intrude into the airspace but will be affected by flight noise.
Therefore, avigation easements would be required for each residential unit.
28. In addition to the Site Plan approval criteria,the subject site is subject to the District'A'Urban Design
Regulations. The design regulations contain both discretionary guidelines and mandatory minimum
standards.
29. The City has adopted a series of policies and goals in its Comprehensive Plan regarding development of
urban and urban downtown areas. It also has adopted Urban Design Standards. Some of those policies
and standards are shown below with particular emphasis supplied to those policies that address the type
• of development that is proposed in this case-a large-scale structure adjacent to older, small-scale
homes:

District and Downtown Core with a transition to lower-scale commercial and residential
projects in areas surrounding the Downtown Core.
Policy CD-13.1: Project design, including location of access and dimensions of yards
and setbacks, should address privacy and quality of life on existing improved portions
of sites. Rear and side yard setbacks should be maintained and not reduced to
facilitate increased density.
Policy CD-17: Development should be designed(e.g. site layout, building orientation,
setbacks, landscape areas and open space,parking, and outdoor activity areas)to result
in a high quality development as a primary goal, rather than to maximize density as a
first consideration
Policy CD-18: Projects should only be approved at the upper end of density ranges
when the following criteria are fully addressed in project level submission.
i)Trees are retained, relocated, or planted to create sufficient vegetative cover to
provide a landscape amenity, shade, and high quality-walking environment in
an urban context.
ii)Lot size/configuration and lot coverage is sufficient to provide private
recreation/outdoor space for each resulting lot. •
iii) Structures can be sited so that entry, window, and door locations create and
maintain privacy on adjoining yards and buildings. Architectural and
landscape design should:
❑ Prevent window and door openings looking directly into another structure,
❑ Prevent over-reliance on fencing, or
❑ Prevent projections of building elements into required setbacks in a pattern
that reduces provision of light,visual separation, and/or require variances or
modification of standards.
Density may be reduced within the allowed range to bring projects into compliance
with these criteria.
Policy CD-25: Site design should address the effects of light, glare,noise,vegetation
removal, and traffic in residential areas. Overall development densities may be
reduced within the allowed density range to mitigate potential adverse impacts.
Policy CD-40: Structures should be designed(e.g.building height, orientation,
materials, color and bulk)to mitigate potential adverse impacts,such as glare or
shadows on adjacent,less intense land uses and transportation corridors.
30. Similarly,the provisions of the Site Plan Ordinance and those sections pertinent to the context of this
project and its surroundings and emphasized below:

arrangement of project elements so as to be compatible with the physical
characteristics of a site and with the surrounding area.An additional
purpose of Site Plan is to ensure quality development consistent with City goals
and policies.For those developments that do not require Master Plan first, Site
Plan Review should occur at an early stage in the development of a project,
when the scale, intensity and layout of a project are known.
The intent of the tiered site development plan review process is to provide an
opportunity to review projects at broad levels for the Master Plan and with
increased specificity as development plans becomes refined to the level of Site
Plan.Intent statements below shall guide review of the plans at specificity
appropriate to the level of review.
1. To promote the orderliness of community growth, protect and
enhance property values and minimize discordant and undesirable
impacts of development both on-and off-site;
2.To promote high quality design meeting criteria set forth in the
City's Urban Center Design Overlay,where applicable;
3.To protect and enhance the desirable aspects of the natural landscape
and environmental features of the City;
4.To ensure convenience and safety of vehicular and pedestrian
movement within the site and in relation to adjacent areas, and ensure
that road and pedestrian circulation systems implement land use
objectives for the zone in which the project occurs;
0
5. To promote coordination of public or quasi-public elements, such as
walkways, driveways,paths, and landscaping within segments of larger
developments and between individual developments;
6. To protect neighboring owners and uses by assuring that
reasonable provisions have been made for such matters as sound
and sight buffers,light and air, and those other aspects of site plans
which may have substantial effects on neighboring land uses;
7.To minimize conflicts that might otherwise be created by a mix of
uses within allowed zones;
8. To provide for quality, multiple family or clustered housing while
minimizing the impacts of high density,heavy traffic generation,and
intense demands on City utilities and recreational facilities;
9. To provide a mechanism to more effectively meet the purposes and
intent of the State Environmental Policy Act;
10. To supplement other land use regulations by addressing site plan
elements not adequately covered elsewhere in the City Code and to
avoid violation of the purpose and intent of those codes. (Ord. 3981,4-

Section RMC 4-9-200F:
(F) ADDITIONAL REVIEW CRITERIA FOR SITE PLAN REVIEW:
The interpretation of the following criteria,particularly references to the "intent •
of the zoning code," shall consider the purpose and intent of the applicable land
use designation of the Land Use Element and the Objectives and Policies of the
Community Design Element of the Comprehensive Plan. The Community
Design Element is specifically intended to guide the interpretation of issues
concerning the site planning, architectural fit,landscaping, and the context of
the project relative to the existing neighborhood. Approval of plans subject to
these criteria requires the additional finding that the project complies with the
intent and policies of the Land Use and Community Design Element of the
Comprehensive Plan.
1. Review of Impacts to Surrounding Properties and Uses:
a. Mitigation of undesirable impacts of proposed structures
and site layouts that could impair the use or enjoyment or
potential use of surrounding uses and structures and of the
community;
b. Mitigation of undesirable impacts when an overscale
structure,in terms of size,bulk,height, and intensity,or site
layout is permitted that violates Zoning Code standards and the
policy direction adopted in the Comprehensive Plan and
impairs the use,enjoyment or potential use of surrounding
properties;
c. Provision of a desirable transition and linkage between
uses and to the street,utility,walkway,and trail systems in the
surrounding area by the arrangement of landscaping, fencing
and/or other buffering techniques, in order to prevent conflicts •
and to promote coordinated and planned benefit from, and
access to, such elements;
d. Consideration of placement and scale of proposed structures

• Page 12
in relation to the natural characteristics of a site in order to
avoid over concentration of structures on a particular portion of
a site such that they create a perception of greater height or
bulk than intended under the spirit of the Zoning Code;
e. Promotion of the efficient function of parking and service
areas by effective location,design and screening,to provide
integrated facilities between uses when beneficial, to promote
urban layouts in appropriate zones,and to prevent unnecessary
repetition and conflict between uses and service areas or
facilities;
f. Mitigation of the unnecessary and avoidable impacts of new
construction on views from existing buildings and future
developable sites,recognizing the public benefit and
desirability of maintaining visual accessibility to attractive
natural features and of promoting urban settings in appropriate
zones;
g. Provision of effective screening from public streets and
residential uses for all permitted outdoor storage areas(except
auto and truck sales), for surface-mounted utility equipment,
for rooftop equipment, and for all refuse and garbage
containers, in order to promote an urban setting where
appropriate and to preserve the effect and intent of screening or
• buffering otherwise required by the Zoning Code; and
h. Consideration of placement and design of exterior lighting
in order to avoid excessive brightness or glare to adjacent
properties and streets.
31. Staff found that: "Privacy and quality of life on abutting lots would be affected, as would solar access, a
quality of life issue, to property adjacent to the east" (Staff Report,Bottom of Page 10). At Page 11 of
the Staff Report is the following quote: "Site planning is the art and science of arranging structures,
open space, and non-structural elements on land in a functional way so that the purpose of the
development can be met, while keeping those elements in harmony with each other and with the context
of the project."
32. Neighbors indicated that the proposal was initially not as tall but that some staff encouraged the
applicant to increase the height of the proposal to achieve greater density.
CONCLUSIONS:
1. The subject proposal presents a quandary. An applicant is generally entitled to develop their property as
it is zoned. This applicant was encouraged to develop it at maximum density. At the same time
neighboring property owners and neighboring residents are also entitled to the continued enjoyment of
their residences and these neighbors are entitled to the protections of regulations such as the Site Plan
Ordinance and the Urban Design regulations that govern development. It is clear that the Zoning
provisions for the CD zone permit the use, its bulk, its very narrow side yards and its height. If Zoning
prevails and all else is for naught that would be the end of the review. But then what is the purpose of
• the Site Plan Review,permit and approval process? Why have Urban Design regulations? It is clear
that other factors have to be considered before a use is permitted on property zoned CD. That is where
factors such as height, scale,bulk, and impact on the neighboring property are to also be considered.
That means balancing the applicant's right to develop the CD zoned site against the impacts that
409 Whitworth Site Approval
File No.: LUA-07-125 SA-H, ECF
February 4, 2008
Page 13 •
development of the site will have on the site and its neighbors.
2. It seems appropriate at this juncture to note that the project appears to be generally well designed. It
steps back as it increases in height, it has included an interesting mixture of facade materials, it includes
modulations and articulated surfaces and has varied rooflines. If the project had been proposed for
Burnett Avenue South in the vicinity of South 3rd and 4th Streets, it would immediately blend in. The
project has not been proposed for that generic Burnett Avenue location. It has been proposed on an
interior lot at the very edge of the urban core. It would be 60 feet tall while its neighbors are barely 30
feet tall. It would be sandwiched in between two low-rise single-family homes. It would have very
small side yards. It would have blank wall elements facing its northerly and southerly neighbors. It
would shade those homes and block light and would peer into the private yards of those adjacent homes.
2. The question is how does one encourage the redevelopment of an area, community or in the most
intimate situation, like this block to meet the policies and goals enunciated in the comprehensive plan
without ripping apart the fabric of the community. The answer is you can't redevelop an area while
providing some protection to the adjacent properties unless you exercise the discretion afforded by the
Site Plan Ordinance and Urban Design Standards. Staff seemed reluctant to do that given the
sometimes conflicting goals set by the City in its policy documents.
3. It is ironic that in the case of a Monopole 1 structure,the staff denied a permit on an administrative
appeal and denied the monopole application on aesthetic reasons (File LUA-07-65, CU-A). In that case,
the applicant was seeking to install an approximately 1-2 feet diameter pole that was 60 feet tall in place
of a 40-foot pole. The pole would have been approximately 30 feet taller than the surrounding single-
family homes. Albeit, that proposal was located in an R-8, Single Family Residential zone, but
nonetheless,the aesthetics are the central focus of the denial. Here we have a proposal to erect a five-
story, 60-foot tall condominium building that will span almost the width of the lot. It will leave side
yards less than two feet wide immediately adjacent to one-story and two story homes. The aesthetic
impacts of the current proposal on its neighbors are huge. So does the fact that the zoning for the area
allows 95-foot tall structures outweigh all other factors? This office has to conclude that the Zoning
Code is tempered by the additional requirements and specifically the Site Plan and Urban Design
Review criteria. There are a number of criteria that basically govern the melding of the new with the
old.
4. The review of this project cannot be done without noting that tradeoffs are required. Some of the
tradeoffs would have to be on the applicant's part. That is because of the intrusive nature of this much
taller, much bulkier building and that it is the first such conversion in this area, thereby making it most
intrusive. But some tradeoffs would have to be on the part of the neighbors who have to accept that
change to their rezoned neighborhood is inevitable. Balancing those competing elements should be
governed by the guiding principles of the Comprehensive Plan,which is cited as one of the first
references in the Site Plan criteria.
5. It is easy to see why staff believed that the provisions of the comprehensive plan were not specifically
codified since there are hundreds of policies and objectives and including each in the Site Plan
Ordinance would be impossible. Rather,the Site Plan Ordinance does contain the following provision:
"compatible with the comprehensive plan." •
6. One of the issues here is that the comprehensive plan provides what some might term contradictory
elements. In this case for example those conflicts might be: to encourage change and redevelopment at
an increased density and to transition to urban type uses, while at the same time, integrating new
409 Whitworth Site Approval
File No.: LUA-07-125 SA-H, ECF
February 4, 2008
• Page 14
development into an existing community and possibly not build out and completely diminish existing
yards eliminating the separation between uses, avoid shadowing and shading. Also, the comprehensive
plan suggests avoiding deterioration and blight. As noted by a number of neighbors,unless or until
immediately abutting or nearby properties are redeveloped,this rather large,almost lot line to lot line
complex will make the immediate neighborhood less desirable and may lead to fewer interested tenants
or less desirable tenants.
7. If the Zoning Code's land use designation is the only binding criteria for reviewing a project,that is, CD
zoning permits buildings 95 feet tall, and requires no side yard(or lot line to lot line),what, frankly,are
the other criteria doing in the Site Plan Ordinance? What is the import of having provisions that asks
about"mitigation of impacts on surrounding properties and uses", "conservation of property values",
"provision of adequate light and air"? What discretion results from these review criteria? If none and
they are merely to describe such impacts and then let them play out,then they are a waste of ink and
time. It would appear that these criteria do have significance and that significance is that if a project is
not compatible with the goals and policies of the comprehensive plan, if a project creates impacts on
"surrounding properties and uses", if a project does not provide "adequate light and air" the project may
be conditioned to relieve some of those impacts or lessen the shadows and shading and it may even be
denied.
8. It would seem that there is discretion to impose reasonable conditions on the project including reducing
its overall size in order to reduce its impact on the community and more importantly on its immediate
neighbors. The issue then is what can be done to reasonably mitigate the impacts of this over-scale
• building on its neighbors while allowing the applicant reasonable use of its CD-zoned property? Will
reducing the height of the building one-story provide reasonable relief or is it merely a pacifier to the
community? Attempting to reduce the width of the building and provide more spacious side yards
might seen appropriate but would require a major, costly redesign. Any reduction in the building would
probably reduce the number of units or the number of larger units. But a unit reduction might also
reduce the necessary parking and could even free some ground floor space to the rear of the building
and provide ground level open space to complement the open space on the upper floors in compliance
with Policy CD-18. In addition,reducing the number of units will also reduce the amount of the traffic
that the project will generate in the community and along the deadend alley that serves both the proposal
and its single-family neighbors. Actually, as the transition of this area occurs,that very limited alley
could very well be very taxed by traffic from much denser housing such as is now proposed.
9. The applicant has proposed projections into setback areas that would require a variance or variances and
that is not appropriate given the directions of Policy CD-18: "Prevent projections of building elements
into required setbacks in a pattern that reduces provision of light,visual separation, and/or require
variances or modification of standards."
10. Redevelopment of the site and the area is inevitable. Given that conclusion, the proposal does
accomplish many of the goals and policies of the comprehensive plan and satisfies many of the criteria
provided by the Site Plan Ordinance, which provides additional criteria for District A housing and even
many of the criteria of the Urban Design Guidelines including its mandatory elements. But,as noted
above in the Findings and the highlighted criteria, the highlighted policies and previous Conclusions,the
proposal is too out-of-scale with its immediate community. It is not compatible and does not blend in.
It does not transition development. It ungracefully wedges itself into an existing block of single-family
• homes. The proposal would blend in better, although,never perfectly, if it were reduced in height as
noted above. Again, it would be an even better fit if it had larger setbacks from its neighbors,but here,
this office has to agree with staff-the applicant is entitled to develop the site at an increased density and
bulk and not put to too much additional expenditure of time and money to drastically redesign the entire
409 Whitworth Site Approval

Page 15 •
complex. Therefore, this office finds it reasonable to reduce the height of the building by one-story.
The project will be approved as a four-story building, approximately 48 feet tall.
11. As shown above,reducing the height should reduce the need for the exterior parking. The applicant
shall create a landscaped open space to the rear of the structure in place of its proposed exterior parking.
The applicant shall also provide relief from its proposed blank walls along the north and south facades
since blank walls are not permitted. The applicant shall also redesign those aspects of the building's
projected elements that would have required a variance. As noted, variances to permit such features are
not favored. There are other ways to reduce a building's apparent bulk that do not actually increase its
bulk or intrusions into required setbacks.
12. Finally, the public has been shown a building plan with articulations, modulations and certain design
elements and other than reducing the height of the building and blending those upper elements where
the reduction occurs,providing trellis or landscape relief along the north and south facades,the
applicant shall not modify the building further. This office has noted at the hearing that the project
along Williams between South 4th and South 5th was presented at Public Hearing as an entirely
different design and slowly transitioned into a building that addresses the streets and its neighbors with
blank concrete parking garage walls rather than ground floor entries that had plantings, steps and
graceful design elements that blended with its surroundings. Similar modifications should not be
permitted for this project.
DECISION: •
The Site Plan is approved subject to the following conditions:
1. The applicant shall reduce the height of the building to four-stories and approximately 48 feet
tall.
2. The applicant shall provide open space to the rear(west) of the building in place of the exterior
parking.
3. Other than reducing the height of the building and blending those upper elements where the
reduction occurs,providing trellis or landscape relief along the north and south facades,the
applicant shall not modify the building further with additional public hearings or a new site plan
review.

Pursuant to Title IV, Chapter 8, Section 100Gof the City's Code, request for reconsideration must be filed-in
writing on or before 5:00 p.m.,February 18,2008. Any aggrieved person feeling that the decision of the
Examiner is ambiguous or based on erroneous procedure, errors of law or fact, error in judgment, or the
discovery of new evidence which could not be reasonably available at the prior hearing may make a written
request for a review by the Examiner within fourteen(14) days from the date of the Examiner's decision. This
request shall set forth the specific ambiguities or errors discovered by such appellant, and the Examiner may,
after review of the record, take further action as he deems proper.
An appeal to the City Council is governed by Title IV, Chapter 8, Section 110,which requires that such appeal
be filed with the City Clerk, accompanying a filing fee of$75.00 and meeting other specified requirements.
Copies of this ordinance are available for inspection or purchase in the Finance Department, first floor of City
Hall. An appeal must be filed in writing on or before 5:00 p.m.,February 18,2008.
If the Examiner's Recommendation or Decision contains the requirement for Restrictive Covenants,the
executed Covenants will be required prior to approval by City Council or final processing of the file. You
may contact this office for information on formatting covenants.
The Appearance of Fairness Doctrine provides that no ex parte (private one-on-one) communications may occur •
concerning pending land use decisions. This means that parties to a land use decision may not communicate in
private with any decision-maker concerning the proposal. Decision-makers in the land use process include both
the Hearing Examiner and members of the City Council.
All communications concerning the proposal must be made in public. This public communication permits all
interested parties to know the contents of the communication and would allow them to openly rebut the
evidence. Any violation of this doctrine would result in the invalidation of the request by the Court.
The Doctrine applies not only to the initial public hearing but to all Requests for Reconsideration as well as
Appeals to the City Council.

• SUMMARY OF ACTION: The property owner of a vacant 6-acre parcel (PID# 222305-9004)
requested consideration of Residential Medium Density Land Use with R-14 zoning for his property as
part of the 2007 Comprehensive Plan Amendments. The parcel is within the New Life - Aqua Barn
Annexation. This request was approved by the City Council subject to a development agreement
restricting development to no more than 45 dwelling units in the R-14 zone. This agreement facilitates
development of the property consistent with the King County zoning to allow Phase 2 of the Molasses
Creek Condominium project. Improvements are already completed to allow this parcel to be added to
the existing condominium to its west, including stormwater and utility systems designed and
constructed to serve the Phase 2 development. Without the development agreement, a maximum
density of approximately 86 units might be feasible with project re-design.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Authorize the Mayor to execute a development agreement with
Cedar River Lightfoot Inc. restricting development of parcel PID# 222305-9004 to no more than
45 dwelling units in the R-14 zone.

SUBJECT: Pre-Annexation Agreement Cedar River Lightfoot Inc
DESCRIPTION:
Rick Lennon,property owner of a vacant 6-acre parcel (PID#222305-9004), abutting the
south side of the Renton—Maple Valley Highway(SR 169), requested Residential
Medium Density(RMD) designation with Residential 14 (R-14) zoning, subject to a
development agreement restricting development to no more than 45 dwelling units during
• the 2007 Comprehensive Plan amendment review. The City Council approved this
request in December 2007. The development agreement is now before the City for
approval.
RECOMMENDATION:
• Future rezoning to R-14 should be conditional upon an approved development
agreement restricting the total number of units on the 6-acre site to 45 condominium
units that are architecturally compatible with the character of Phase 1 of the Molasses
Creek Condominium development.
• Authorize the Mayor to execute the proposed development agreement with Cedar
River Lightfoot Inc.
ANALYSIS:
The current subject property(PID#222305-9005) is a six-acre parcel with a two-story,
five-bedroom home built in 1911. This 6-acre parcel is part of the proposed 397-acre
New Life—Aqua Barn annexation.
The subject 6-acre site was already reviewed by King County as Phase 2 of the Molasses
Creek Condominium development project, although it is not yet vested. According to the
applicant, a number of improvements have already been completed to allow this 6-acre
parcel to be added to the existing condominium project to its west. These include the
stormwater control system of Phase 1 that was designed and constructed to serve both

Phase 1 and Phase 2. All utilities (water, sewer, etc.)have been designed and constructed •
to serve Phase 2 and utility lines have already been extended to the western edge of PID#
222305-9004 to facilitate future connections. Phase 2 is planned and has been designed
for approximately 45 units with a density comparable to that of Phase 1. Current zoning
in King County allows a cluster form of multi-family and condominium development
consistent with Renton's R-14 zone development standards.
EXISTING AND PROPOSED COMREHENSIVE PLAN AND ZONING:
The RMD Comprehensive Plan designation is intended to create the opportunity for
neighborhoods that offer a variety of lot sizes, housing, and ownership options. RMD
neighborhoods should include a variety of unit types designed to incorporate features
from both single-family developments, support cost-efficient housing, facilitate infill
development, and encourage use of transit service.
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN COMPLIANCE:
The recommended changes comply with the goals, objectives, and policies of the
Comprehensive Plan as indicated in this analysis.
ZONING CONCURRENCY:
The proposed zoning of R-14 implements the RMD designation in the Comprehensive
Plan.
CONCLUSION •
The proposed development agreement implements the rezoning of the parcel from King
County to Renton's R-14 zone, consistent with the conditions of the Comprehensive Plan
Amendment decision of the City Council in December 2007.

FROM: Terry Higashiyama, Community Services Administrator

SUBJECT: Lease Amendment with LSI Logic Corporation
Issue:
Should the Council authorize the Mayor and the City Clerk to sign a Lease Amendment
with LSI Logic Corporation for space on the third floor of the 200 Mill Building?
Recommendation:
Council authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to sign the Lease Amendment.
Background:
• LSI Logic Systems, formerly Engenio Information Technologies, Inc., and then
doing business as Syntax Systems Inc., signed an original five-year lease with the
City for the full third floor of the 200 Mill Building(6,005 rentable square feet) in
April 2000. The lease was structured as a full-service lease, with the City
providing all utilities, custodial and janitorial services, and property insurance
inclusive in the rent.
• In 2005, their exact business unit plans being unknown, Engenio requested an
amendment to the lease to extend the original lease agreement for a one-year
period,with a right of early termination after six months.
• In 2006 and again in 2007, that process was repeated. LSI Logic Corporation is
now requesting another amendment with very similar terms and conditions.
• The business points of the proposed amended lease are as follows:
o Rent will continue at its current amount of$8,757.29 per month.
o The lease rate is $17.50 per square foot. This rate is slightly above
current market rates in this area, but consistent with such a short-term
agreement.
o The brokerage fee of$2,627.19 would be payable from the Leased City
Properties Fund 108.
o In the event of early termination, GVA Kidder Matthews will repay the
unamortized portion of the brokerage fee.
o To allow more flexibility for the City in case the space needs to be
• recaptured quickly, this amendment allows for a 120-day notice of lease
Page 2 of 2
March 20,2008
termination anytime after the first four months. It was previously set at 111
anytime after the first six months.
o There are no other new lease concessions or conditions.
Conclusion:
Cooperatively extending LSI's lease term for up to a one-year period meets their business
needs and provides the City with continuing cash flow. The one-year term also provides
the necessary planning flexibility for future City use of the property.

SUMMARY OF ACTION:
Work on the Parks Maintenance Shop Project will begin shortly. It is possible that debt financing

enables the City to make capital expenditures on these projects in anticipation of expenditure
reimbursement from the proceeds of the Bonds.

Authorize capital expenditures on Maintenance Shop Project prior to completion of potential debt
financing, and adopt the related Resolution.

VIA: --36"f31 1, Denis Law, Mayorzr
FROM: Michael Bailey, FIS Administrato
SUBJECT: Reimbursement Authority from Bond Proceeds
ISSUE
Should the City adopt a resolution permitting the reimbursement of capital expenditures from bond
proceeds for City projects?
RECOMMENDATION
Adopt the resolution authorizing the City to reimburse the capital accounts with proceeds from the
bond sale for the proposed projects. "
BACKGROUND SUMMARY
Staff and the City Council have discussed the potential for the use of municipal bonds to finance costs
of some capital projects. It is anticipated that a workshop will explore these options in more depth
later this spring. Currently, work is beginning on a maintenance facility as provided for in the 2008
Capital Improvement Plan. In order for any part of this maintenance facility to be funded through
municipaladopted bonds we would need to have ado ted what is known as a"reimbursement resolution." This
resolution creates the possibilitythat bonds could be used and does not obligate the issuance of bonds.
g
IRS regulations require the issuer of municipal bonds to authorize the reimbursement of project costs
incurred prior to the sale date of the bonds with a"reimbursement resolution" in the form of the
proposed resolution.
CONCLUSION
If the City desires to be able to use bonds to reimburse itself for expenditures related to the
development of this facility, including the purchase of the land, it needs to have adopted a resolution
stating this intent.

VIA: - Denis Law, Mayor
FROM: I. David Daniels, Fire Chief/Emergency Services Administrator
STAFF CONTACT: Deborah Needham, Emergency Management Director
SUBJECT: Reduction of Emergency Management Performance Grant
(EMPG) award
Issue
Washington State has presented the City with an amendment to the 2007 Emergency
Management Performance Grant (EMPG) contract which reduces the EMPG award by
. $31,516.00.
Background
The original Emergency Management Performance Grant application submitted in early
2007 incorrectly categorized some program costs by failing to back out the federally
funded share. The error was discovered and promptly reported to the State in accordance
with the law. The State has amended the EMPG Contract#E07-363 to reflect the amount
that should have been awarded originally. This represents a decrease of$31,516 in
anticipated reimbursements to offset 2007 budget expenses.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that Council concur and authorize the Mayor to execute Amendment B
to the Washington State Military Department and the Department of Homeland Security
Emergency Management Performance Grant (EMPG) Contract#07-363 (CAG-07-124).

10. DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION OF AMENDMENT, MODIFICATION, OR CHANGE ORDER:
The U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Emergency Management Performance Grant (EMPG)
program provides funding to local jurisdictions that have emergency management programs to
supplement their operating budget and enhance their emergency management capability. Each
jurisdiction that meets the requirements and applies is awarded a grant based on the amount of local
funds committed to their emergency management program. This contract amount must be changed to
reflect an adjusted local funding budget. The original local funding budget incorrectly included federal
funds anticipated under EMPG and should have only included the local funds committed by the
jurisdiction. In order to maintain equity among all pass-through recipients the award must be adjusted
to reflect the new local funding budget.

SUMMARY OF ACTION:
The Public Works Principal Financial and Administrative Analyst has resigned from her
position with the City effective June 13, 2008. This position is responsible for preparing and
monitoring the Public Works annual budget, which includes both general fund and enterprise
funds, performing utility rate analysis using rate models, estimating enterprise fund revenue
projections, analyzing financial trends, preparing financial strategies, and coordinating the
department's capital improvement program. Currently, these job duties are done by one

these various duties to temporarily fill in or train a new employee.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:

to the accepted resignation date of the current staff member to provide for effective training of
the replacement analyst, which would allow a projected hiring date of May 15, 2008.

STAFF CONTACT: Gregg Zimmerman, Public Works Administrator(ext. 7311)
SUBJECT: Request to Fill Principal Financial and Administrative
Analyst Position (Grade M24, Step C 0.75 FTE) to Overlap
with Existing Employee for Training Purposes
ISSUE:
Should the City Council authorize the Public Works Administration Division to overfill
Sits Principal Financial and Administrative Analyst position for 30 days prior to the
accepted resignation date of the current holder of this position, which would allow a
projected hiring date of May 15, 2008?
RECOMMENDATION:
Authorize the Public Works Administration Division to overfill the Principal Financial
and Administrative Analyst position 30 days prior to the accepted resignation date of the
current holder of this position, which would allow a projected hiring date of May 15,
2008.
BACKGROUND SUMMARY:
The Public Works Principal Financial and Administrative Analyst has resigned from her
position with the City effective June 13, 2008. Her resignation has been accepted by the
Public Works Administrator and Human Resources. The individual who currently holds
this position has given three months notice of her intent to resign from her position. This
position is filled by a 0.75 FTE staff member(30 hours per week). There is no back up
individual with sufficient knowledge about the various duties of the position to
temporarily fill in or effectively train a new employee.
The Public Works Department budget consists of both general fund and enterprise fund
•
accounts, as well as capital improvement programs for the Transportation Systems and
Utility Systems divisions. Historically, the beginning of the budget development process

•
for the followingyear occurs in June. Each of the Public Works Department divisions
p
relies heavily on this position to conduct analysis that is used in preparing the
department's annual budget and capital improvement programs, and to coordinate
preparation of the budget within the established time frames. Placing a new staff member
in this position without special training could result in budget oversights, errors, and
inability to meet deadlines set by the Finance Administrator.
In addition to budget development, detailed analysis must be conducted to establish
utility rate recommendations. The analysis involves evaluating costs, consumption
projections, capital project needs, revenue estimates, and other financial considerations,
and inputting this data into the utility rate models to develop rate scenarios that are then
presented to the Council. The position provides various other financial services to the
department that are key to the department's efficient operation.
CONCLUSION:
The Public Works Department requests authorization to overfill its Principal Financial
and Administrative Analyst position (Grade M24, Step C, 0.75 FTE) 30 days prior to the
accepted resignation date of the current staff member for effective training purposes,
which would allow a projected hiring date of May 15, 2008.

SUBJECT: WSDOT State Participating Agreement for the Ripley Lane
North Storm System Improvement Project
ISSUE:
Should the Council approve the Washington State Department of Transportation
• (WSDOT) State Participating Agreement and an ordinance amending the Surface Water
Utility Fund 427 revenue and expenditure budget for the Ripley Lane North Storm
System Improvement Capital Improvement project, in order to receive $678,223 from
WSDOT?
RECOMMENDATION:
Approve a resolution authorizing the Mayor and City Clerk to sign the State Participating
Agreement with the Washington State Department of Transportation to accept a
contribution, in the amount of$678,223 for the Ripley Lane North Storm System
Improvement project. In addition, approve a budget ordinance to increase the Surface
Water Utility revenue and expenditure accounts for the project in the amount of
$678,223.
BACKGROUND:
The Surface Water Utility and the Washington State Department of Transportation
(WSDOT) are proposing to construct the Ripley Lane North Storm System Improvement
project, which will extend the storm system improvements constructed on the Seattle
Seahawks' Headquarters and Training Facility site by Football Northwest, LLC. The
project includes installing a vault structure to connect to the Seahawks' storm system and
481 linear feet of 36-inch storm pipe and 290 linear feet of 45-inch casing pipe under the
• BNSF railroad located between the six foot on center pile supports for the King County
Wastewater 84-inch Sanitary Sewer Eastside Interceptor. The four 36-inch storm pipes

will be extended to the east side of Ripley Lane North and involve channel improvements
up to the I-405 roadway where existing 48-inch and 24-inch storm systems discharge
runoff from I-405 and the upstream basin(see attached map and plan).
The State Participating Agreement establishes the WSDOT share of the project
construction cost to be $678,223. The estimated total project construction cost, including
contingency is estimated to be $1,721,576. The Ripley Lane North Storm System
Improvement project along with the downstream storm system improvements constructed
by the Seahawks are sized to accommodate existing and future increases in runoff from
the total tributary area including WSDOT I-405 right-of-way. WSDOT cost share
percentage is based upon its contribution of runoff to the downstream storm systems.
WSDOT will fund 39.4 percent of the construction cost for the Ripley Lane North Storm
System Improvement project. This percentage includes its share of the cost associated
with the oversizing cost for the 60-inch and 72-inch storm system constructed by the
Seahawks, which the City will reimburse the Seahawks through a separate agreement. It
also includes the WSDOT share of the cost for the design and construction of the
Ripley Lane North Storm System Improvement project based upon runoff contribution.
The attached Cost Share Worksheet provides an overview of all costs from
Lake Washington to I-405 and how the costs are shared between the City, WSDOT and
the Seahawks.
The project design and permitting has been completed. The construction plans and •
contract specifications advertisement started on March 25, 2008. The construction
contract bid opening is planned for April 15, 2008, with the bid award planned for
April 21, 2008. The project construction is planned to start in late May or June 2008 and
end in October 2008.
CONCLUSION:
Approve the resolution authorizing the Mayor and City Clerk to sign the State
Participating Agreement with WSDOT and the budget ordinance for the Ripley Lane
North Storm System Improvement project.
