Warren, City Attorney RE: Minutes of Executive Committee for P-1 and P-9 Projects The Executive Committee met on November 22 , 1988 , to discuss various issues and to try to structure working committees as well as a work plan. It was decided that initially, four key steps controls the work program. These are as follows : 1 . Obtain a wetlands inventory and determine how the surface water system functions . Nancy Morris and Chuck Price were assigned to this task. 2 . Acquire a hydraulic design for the P1-and P-9 Channels . Chuck Price was assigned to this task. 3 . Settle on a project. This would be an administrative decision. ' 4 . Provide a supplemental EIS on. the P-1 and P-9 Channels . It might be advisable to use the same consultant to then expand its work to include the Oakesdale project.. A number of minor issues were covered that need to be resolved. In no particular order they are as follows : 1 . Meet with :SCS and describe our work plan to them. 2 . Obtain a report on the prior meeting with DOE and conduct a follow-up meeting if necessary. 3 . Determine to what extent we, can use SCS design money to prepare any or all of items 1 , 2 , and 4 above . 4 . Ascertain how close to completion the SCS design project is .

Assess what is available for design information to determine how large the P-1 project must be, and use it if possible to calculate necessary designs . • 6 . Determine how much of the P-1 ditch is used for compensating flood storage. 7 . Coordinate with Glacier Park' s wetland inventory. C Lawrence J. Warren P. S . Around the first. of December Don Monaghan contacted me and indicated that he thought the Panther Creek project and P-9 project could be completed with little or no environmental protest, particularly if it was handled correctly with DOE . Apparently the fisheries people are strongly in support of the P-9 and Panther Creek projects . He believes that SCS would then expend most of its available construction money to help us in those two projects . Although this was not discussed, and I have no idea whether or not it is practical, it should be discussed. LJW:as . cc: Mayor A8 . 35 :22 . . /22iy & VV\ 4, CITY OF RENTON Lawrence J.

Warren, City Attorney RE: P-1 Channel Gentlemen: If we ever get the environmental review completed and the necessary shorelines and Corps of Engineers ' permits for the P-1 Channel, I understand that one likely source of funding for property acquisition might be the drainage utility. If so, do we want to consider the use of a latecomer's fee for the drainage basin served by the P-1 Channel? Do we want to explore the possibility of charging connection fees? We must keep in mind that the city council capped the drainage utility charge for single family owners, but we might be able to find the drainage basin to include mostly commercial uses . Also, is the P-1 on the capital improvement list for the drainage utility? If so, will there be enough money for the acquisition? There is no hurry on this topic, but I didn't want to forget this key element. Perhaps we should discuss this the next time we talk about the P-1 Channel or the valley traffic improvements .

Parry Assistant City Attorneys February 16, 1988 TO: Dick Houghton,, Public Works Director FROM: Lawrence J. Warren, City Attorney RE: Procedure to be Followed on the P-1 Channel Dear Dick: This memo is in response to your recent request that I outline - the procedure that the City is going to follow with respect to the P-1 Channel. The box culvert under I-405 will be built as part of the lane widening on I-405 . The State Department of Ecology has required the City to get a shorelines permit for the box culvert, but indicates that it will not oppose a shorelines permit or hold up the project in any fashion. In return the City has agreed to review the environmental implications of the P-1 Channel before diverting Springbrook into the box culvert. SCS demanded that the City rely upon its environmental documents. The State Department of Ecology at a meeting has agreed with us that an acceptable procedure would be for the City to adopt the SCS NEPA documents as SEPA documents. The City would then circulate the document, together with the conceptual drawings for the P-1 Channel amongst the various agencies for comment. We would particularly seek out the input of DOE, Fisheries, EPA, Corps of Engineers, the Muckleshoots, etc. by mailing specific notices to them rather than relying upon. the SEPA clearing house. If there are any requests for additional information or additional environmental review, then the City would go back to SCS and ask . them to make good on their promise that they would take up the environmental fight for the City. Some of the staff feel like this is not a good procedure to follow because they believe the SCS environmental documents for a funding program are not adequate for the actual project itself. However , it is necessary that we follow this course of action because the Pnct ()Moe Rrn t'i2.h - 100 S 2nd Street - Renton_ Washington 98057 - (206) 255-8678 Dick Houghton February 16 , 1988 Page 2 City is caught between the competing forces of SCS and DOE. Since DOE has accepted this procedure as a tool for getting complete environmental review, it would appear to be in the City' s best interest to, follow that procedure. If I can provide you with any further detail or answer any further questions , please let me know. Lawrence J. Warren LJW:nd cc: Mayor N8.19:19 CITY OF 'RENTON Lawrence J.

Parry Assistant City Attorneys December 23, 1987 TO: M" ike Parness, Administrative Assistant Dick Houghton, Public Works Director Larry Springer, Police Development Director Ron Nelson, Building and Zoning Director FROM: Lawrence J. Warren, City Attorney RE: Meeting with SCS on P-1 Channel Gentlemen: This Memorandum is to memorialize my understanding of the result of our meeting with the Soil Conservation Service on the P-1 Channel. The Soil Conservation Service was adamant that they would not do further environmental review on the P-1 Channel project. They insist that they have done full environmental review, that their environmental impact statement needs no change or amplification and that they have negotiated mitigation for their project. SCS' s position is that they did the environmental review and they provide the money and we get the permits. If the City is challenged on environmental concerns then SCS will come in and • help us resolve the difficulty. When we stated that the scope of the project has changed because of more development, Kent' s involvement or non-involvement and other factors, SCS answers that flood control projects are long term and that they have covered all of these eventualities. They state that their original project was eleven miles in length and they are still intent on building that project. They also state that their environmental documents were updated in 1981 and that further updating should not be necessary. SCS and the State Department of Ecology appear miles apart. It was felt that the next step was to meet with DOE and explain SCS' s position and see what, if anything , we could do to resolve our difficulties. SCS tells us that they have taken care of most of the complaints of Fish and Wildlife and so DOE should have no material complaints. SCS insists that we file for the permits based upon the present environmental review, and in the instance of the shorelines permit, grant ourselves the necessary permit Post Office Box 626 - 100 S 2nd Street - Renton, Washington 98057 - (206) 255-8678 Mike Parness , et December 23 , 1987 Page 2 and make the State challenge our actions. After the shorelines permit has been obtained, then we should file for a Corps of Engineers 404 permit using the same methods. SCS would notback down even though they acknowledge that Federal EPA, the Corps of Engineers, State DOE and the Indian Tribes do not agree that their old EIS is still adequate. The position of SCS is that the document is adequate and they will defend it. If we are put at risk because of the use of that document, SCS will come in and defend it. If I understand correctly, the next step is to have a meeting with DOE and explain what SCS is demanding of us. These statements are from my notes and recollections of the meeting. If anyone feels that clarifying remarks need to be made or that I have made any of my notes or comments in error, please _ let me know. '---"'" Lawrence J.

Barber - Zanetta L. Fontes -Theodore R. Parry Assistant City Attorneys November 3 , 1987 Terra Prodan Department of Ecology Mail Stop PV-11 Olympia, Washington 98504-8711 Re : I-405 HOV Lane Widening and Oakesdale and P-1 Channel Box Culvert Dear Ms. Prodan: Thank you for meeting with the Department of Transportation and the City of Renton concerning the HOV lane widening and the associated City of Renton projects. Also thank you for contacting Alan Miller, the Assistant Attorney General assigned to your Department. I had an opportunity to speak with him on Tuesday, October 27, 1987. This letter is to try and memorialize my understanding . of the Department of Ecology' s position following that telephone conversation. The Department of Ecology believes that there is no legal requirement for it to give notice to a party that a stream has been determined to be of a flow subject to shoreline jurisdiction. If the stream has a flow of 20 cfs mean annual flow, even if the Department of Ecology has not discovered that fact, any construction will require a. shorelines permit. For example, if the construction was well advanced before it was determined that the stream had flow making it within DOE ' s jurisdiction, the permit application would be required. However, • if a project is sufficiently advanced, it need not stop while obtaining a shorelines permit. Such is the case here. Because of the advanced stages of engineering , and the fact the project has gone to bid, the bids may be opened, the bid awarded and construction started before the shorelines permit has actually been granted. However, it is incumbent upon the State Department of Transportation and the City of Renton to make a timely application for a shorelines permit and aggressively pursue that permit. It is understood that the 405 HOV lane widening project and the Oakesdale road construction probably are not of great concern to the Department of Ecology and that the permits will probably be more or less pro forma. The P-1 box culvert is of somewhat more concern to the Department. It is felt that the installation of that improvement, at substantial expense, will probably be looked Post Office Box 626 - 100 S 2nd Street - Renton, Washington 98057 - (206) 255-8678 fi. . -.Terra Prodan November 3 , 1987 Page 2 upon as predetermining the issue of the diversion of Springbrook Creek into the box culvert. However , the box culvert is an essential element of the HOV lane widening project in that it must be constructed at the same time as the lane widening or it will be physically impossible or uneconomical to do so at a later time. Also, the one wall of the box culvert is a required wall to allow the construction of Oakesdale Avenue . Because of the concerns expressed by the Department of Ecology and others, the City of . Renton has met with its affected Departments, and has determined that following the box culvert construction, the City will review the P-1 Channel project from 16th S. through the Valley and re-analyze the necessity of the project , the extent of the impacts of the wetlands on the project and will attempt to involve DOE and other affected State and Federal agencies in this inquiry as well as inviting public participation in. the process. Additionally, it is understood by the City that Springbrook, Creek will not• be diverted into .the P-1 box culvert under I-405 until •the 'City has processed and obtained another shorelines permit for that diversion. It is also the City of Renton' s understanding from meetings with the State Department of Fisheries that the Department of Fisheries believes that the present design for the box culvert is a preferable design over the designs discussed in the Soil Conservation Services environmental impact statement for the P-1 Channel project. The preceding discussion is rather lengthy. I repeat it simply to show you that the City of Renton is sensitive to the concerns expressed by the Department of Ecology and that we prefer to work with you and the State Department of Transportation so as to further everyone ' s interest in this project. I know I express for all of the involved people with the City of Renton my appreciation for the Department of Ecology making a prompt decision on this matter . We all realize the time constraints under which you act and that like all governmental departments, you are shorthanded . Very truly yours , • • Lawrence J.

Warren, City Attorney RE: Valley-wide Drainage Special Assessment District Dear Billie: The storm drainage utility ordinance does not resolve my concerns. However, there is no pressing need for this topic to be discussed as the P-1 Channel is not progressing at this time. I would hope that the City Council would keep this matter on the Committee Agenda until some of the recent issues can be resolved. For example, it now appears that the P-1 Channel may . need a shorelines permit before it can be constructed. It may also need a Corps of Engineers 404 Permit. I have written to both State and Federal agencies asking for input on this point. To date I have heard from the State but not from the Federal government. Until I have some further answers an adequate recommendation cannot be made to the Council Committee. However, I would hate to lose this topic by the Council removing it from the Committee Agenda.

The City has received an application for development along Springbrook Creek but southerly of the Van Woerden parcel being developed by the Austin Company. The City informed the developer that Springbrook Creek was in the process of being redesignated such that a shorelines permit might or would be necessary. That developer has voluntarily chosen to apply for a shorelines permit. However, the City feels insecure as to its ability to compel such an application. The City of Renton is the initial permitting agency for shorelines permits. However, Springbrook Creek is not designated in our Shorelines Master Program such that a permit would be necessary. The State has not taken action to designate the Creek differently and therefore there is no notice to the general public that a shorelines permit might be necessary. Because there has not been an official notification and a chance for appeal, I have grave concerns about the City' s ability to compel a shorelines application from any developer proposing development along Springbrook Creek. I have suggested to the City of Renton that it advise all such developers of the likelihood that a shorelines permit would be necessary. I have further suggested that they urge the developer to make application for a shorelines permit treating the project as if it were in an urban designation. However, if the developer refuses to make such an application, I have advised the Department to process the application as if a shorelines permit was not necessary. Enclosed herewith is a copy of a notification that I have drafted for the City to be handed to any applicant for development along Springbrook Creek. Once there is an official designation and time for appeal has run, then we can feel comfortable in demanding shoreline permit applications. Up until that time I believe we must rely upon the goodwill of the developers.

Very truly yours , Lawrence J. Warren LJW:nd Encl. cc: Ron Nelson Larry Springer Dick Houghton Mike Parness N8.4: 36 J'- NOTIFICATION AS TO STATUS OF SPRINGBROOK CREEK You are advised that the State of Washington, Department of Ecology has determined that Springbrook Creek in the area of your development has or may have sufficient flow to qualify it as a stream subject to the privity requirements of the Shorelines Management Act. The State has'. not, as yet taken steps to officially publish that designation, but that action is anticipated sometime in the near future. You are urged to apply for a shorelines permit before undertaking your development. Legally, there is a question as to whether or not you can be compelled to apply for a shorelines permit until the designation for Springbrook Creek has been officially adopted and the appeal time has expired. There is also a legal argument that can be made that the shorelines permit is necessary once it has been determined that the stream has sufficient flow to require a permit under the Shorelines Act. The City of Renton is actively working with the State Department of Ecology to verify the data as to flow and the point on Springbrook Creek downstream of which the Shorelines Act applies. Your compliance with the Shorelines Act is strongly urged, although it is voluntary at this point. The City of Renton also urges you to check with your legal counsel to obtain an' explanation of your rights and duties under the Shorelines Act. CITY2: 10/5/22/87 u CITY 'IF RENT ON %J. Lawrence J. Warren, City Attorney Daniel Kellogg - David M. Dean-Mark E. Barber - Zanetta L. Fontes -Theodore R. Parry Assistant City Attorneys May 11 , 1987 TO: Dick Houghton, Public Works Director FROM: Lawrence J. Warren, City Attorney RE: P-1 Channel and Springbrook Creek, Shorelines Master Permit Dear Dick: As you are probably aware, the Department of Ecology has made a ruling that Springbrook Creek someplace south of I- 405 has sufficient flow to be a shoreline of the State . Before s4ch a ruling is official, there must be a publication, time for a hearing and official adoption of Springbrook Creek as subject to the Shorelines Act. However, that probably will be done before the City is ready to proceed on the P-1 Channel. Therefore,. I would suggest that your Department, as coordinator of the P-1 Project, begin to prepare and apply for a Shorelines Permit. In conversations with DOE there are -two ways to proceed: (1 ) we can consider this area under the old Shorelines Master Program and try and determine the intent and apply as if the Shorelines Master Program covered this area. This would undoubtedly result in a determination that the area should be in an urban designation and apply for. the permit on that basis. (2 ) We can physically amend our Master Program, make the new designation, and then apply for the Permit. Perhaps you should coordinate the City' s approach with Larry Springer and Ron Nelson.

Bob Bergstrom sent over some documentation previously, but these documents do not pinpoint the location and extent of the reservation. Bob had originallyproposed that we trade the reservation for the P-10 Channel for outright title to the P-1 Channel. However, none of the documents that I have been provided show any dimensions for the reservations and therefore I do not know if we are proposing that we trade like amounts of property. Group Health is hesitant to meet with the City until it further reviews its documentation. They have indicated that title insurance companies cannot find any documents of record. This substantially weakens the City' s position if we are asking for a trade. At the present time I have nothing to go on except some language on a building permit. Do we have anything else?

Parry Assistant City Attorneys December 1, 1986 TO: Richard Houghton, Public Works Director Larry Springer, Policy Development Director Ron Nelson, Building & Zoning Director Mike Parness, Administrative Assistant FROM: Lawrence J. Warren, City Attorney .Gentlemen: I have been provided with a copy of an appraisal of the Longacres acquisition. That appraisal was prepared on behalf of Broadacres by Chuck Mattaini. His conclusion was that the taking for. the P-1 Channel and Oakesdale would be worth $622 ,000 .00 . The City of Renton has not done an appraisal on this property. There has been an appraisal done on the Puget Power property immediately to the north. However, this property is quite a • bit different in that certain of the property is within the flood zone, other property is subject to deed restrictions and yet further property is between the alignment of Grady Way and I-405 . In any event the average value for that property was $1 .03 per square foot. Realizing that the Broadacres parcel was worth more than $1.03 per square foot, I proposed a value of $2 .00 per square foot. The amount of property to be acquired is approximately 4 .13 acres. Roughly an acre encompasses 40,000 square feet. In very rough terms the property encompasses 160 ,000 square feet. The City's offer of $2 .00 per square foot results in a value of approximately $320 ,000 .00 . Mr. Mattaini' s value represented somewhat less than $4 .00 per square foot. The City' s records would indicate that the value contributed to the property by Mr. Mattaini is closer to a filled value than an unfilled value. His analysis also presumes a depreciation in value for the severed east property and that depreciation is arguable. The severed parcel will now front on Oakesdale Blvd. where it is now isolated. I think that a good case can be made for the value of that property actually appreciating. In conversations with Ken Alhadeff, he indicates that Broadacres is willing to settle for an interim value. The City needs to carefully analyze the Mattaini appraisal and respond. I have Post Office Box 626 - 100 S 2nd Street - Renton, Washington 98057 - (206) 255-8678 Page 2 December 1, 1986 also been told by Mr. Alhadeff that the majority of the compensa- tion for this parcel may be taken as credit for future trip generation charges for the Valley area and so the City may not need to pay out a great deal of money. The Council has also authorized, by prior action, the rebate of admissions taxes to Longacres to pay for the City' s acquisition of this property. The exact portion of the compensation to be paid by rebate and .the portion to be paid by credit to future trip generation is something to be arrived at by future negotiation.

RE: Group Health Acquisition - P-1 Channel and Oakesdale Dear Bob: I have recently spoken with Sarah Klevit of Group Health Legal offices at 326-6847. Apparently the City' s acquisition of the necessary right-of-way has now been turned over to the legal department. They have asked for an extension of the time for a meeting with them. Therefore, the meeting of Monday, December 8 at 10: 00 a.m. has been stricken and a new meeting date will be set. • In the meantime, Ms. Klevit has asked for a copy of the require- ments by Group Health that they participate in roadway improvements. I believe there is a Hearing Examiner' s decision or other zoning decision .that required them to agree to participate. I would like to have a copy of that available. Ron Nelson also mentioned that the latest addition to the Group Health buildings triggered the off site improvements ordinance. We probably need to have that information available either through Ron or you. Perhaps the two of you could coordinate the information. . I have also received a request that we search our records to deter- mine exactly what documentation we have to support our claim of the reservation for the P-1, P-10 and Oakesdale alignments.

We would suggest that our lack of response to your letter dated September 24, 1986 should not be viewed as a lack of interest in negotiating a mutually beneficial settlement with respect to the P='1 Channel Right of Way. In our first meeting where I had been invited to attend an "orientation session" I found myself confronted with the City Attorney, the Mayor's 'office, and the City Engineer. At this initial meeting we discussed, Group Health's interests and I believed the City of Renton was generally closed to negotiation. The City presented an offer, if we didn't accept it then the City would move to condemn the property. • I felt the obligation to assess the value of your proposal , particularly in view of our interests. GHC has spent the interim developing a formulation of our position including the solicitation of an opinion of our legal department.

Topics were: type of work, potential city exposure, for Consultants level of required coverage, distinction between contractor and consultant liability, availability of insurance coverage, cost impact on city projects, and potential bid limitations from qualifying firms. Council members expressed concern that the City not accept unreasonable exposure; that quality control be a primary consideration; that flexibility be allowed for competitive bids from small or newly formed firms; and that liability insurance requirements of other jurisdictions be reviewed.

Health Cooperative of Puget Sound 300 Elliott Avenue West Seattle, WA 98119 Attention: Philip Giuntoli, AIA Re: Proposed Acquisition by City of Renton of P-1 right-of-way and Oaksdale right-of-way • Dear Mr. Giuntoli: Thank you for meeting with the City on its plans to acquire the necessary right-of-way for the P-1 Channel and Oaksdale. As mentioned to you in that meeting, the acquisition of Oaksdale is not an overriding concern of the City at the present time. However, acquisition of the P-1 Channel is of paramount concern. The City Council took action on Monday, September 22 , 1986 which substantially relieves the time pressure under which we were operating. However, any negotiations that the City will undertake with your Company concerning the P-1 Channel alignment must be - completed by the 1987 building season. - . During our meeting you expressed a desire for Group Health to obtain a triangular shaped piece of property from Broadacres that would be severed by the P-1 Channel from the larger Broadacres ' holdings. I have spoken with Bill Taylor, a representative of Broadacres, and he has indicated that Broadacres will entertain offers for that particular parcel of property. I would suggest that you contact Bill directly at 226-3131. I would ask that you closely review the City's prior offer because I think it is quite beneficial to Group Health.

The City is offering to remove the cloud on the title in a straight trade, sqaure foot for square foot. I have been informed that the building permits granted to Group Health over the lastseveral years contained a require- ment by the Public Works Department that the P-1 and Oaksdale alignment be dedicated to the City. There is also an argument to be made that the City can compel those transfers without compensation. If we cannot arrive at an agreement for acquisition, I am prepared to recommend to the City Council that we condemn , the necessary right-of-way. If the City goes to the time arid' expense of condemnation there would be little or no incentive for the City to release the reservations of the P-1 and P-10 Channels. This would prevent Group Health from filling and building on those portions of its property. The City would not do this out of any sense of malice, but rather is compelled to retain valuable property rights unless adequate compensation is given to abandon those property rights. For the reasons stated above, the original proposal that the City made to Group Health would appear reasonable. Of course, we are willing to discuss any counter proposal . As evidenced by this letter, we are willing to assist you in achieving a total proposal that would be acceptable to Group Health. Very truly yours, Lawrence. J.

RIGHT-OF-WAY ACQUISITION Dear Mr. Giuntoli: This letter is to follow-up on our City's previous meeting with - Mr. Ed Kenholtz, whom I understand has recently retired from Group Health. The City of Renton is putting together the land for construction of the P-1 Flood Control Channel, and the proposed Oakesdale Avenue S.W. street project. The segment of the P-1 and Oakesdale project from S.W. 16th Street south to your south property line, skirts along your west lot line. In my discussions with Ed, he said Group Health might be interested in trading the existing City-held P-10 easements for the new P-1 easement. As you may know, the P-10 Channel has been dropped from the program. So in this spirit, I have prepared legal documents and exhibits showing the proposed P-1 and Oakesdale right-of-way takes and possible right-of-way turn backs. I am proposing we trade a rough area for area between Renton and Group Health for our upcoming Winter construction of the P-1 Channel along your western frontage. I would propose trading the Group Health P-1 Channel right-of-way for the City- controlled P-10. I will also require an initial segment of the Oakesdale Avenue S.W. right-of-way at the northwest corner of your site to contract the new Oakesdale Avenue S.W. extension north to S.W. Grady Way. In addition, I will have the City relinquish back to Group Health the easterly (20' ) 1/2 of the Drainage District No. 1 right-of-way, upon our abandonment of the Spring`- brook Creek in it's old alignment. We intend to realign the creek into the P-1 Channel next Summer in our Fisheries Permit creek work period. Please review this. proposal and I would be .glad to meet with you. ..

Page 4 Dangerous Lee Ford, 372 Stevens Avenue SW, registered a complaint regarding Intersection - safety hazard at the intersection of Stevens and Sunset Boulevard SW, Sunset SW/Stevens near the CHG International "Sunpointe" development. He reported that as SW a result of high traffic volumes and impaired sight distance caused by steep grade, trees and signs, left turn movements onto Sunset are extremely dangerous as evidenced by numerous accidents in that location. He requested that the traffic signal installed by the developer at the intersection be activated from current blinking mode. Mayor Shinpoch indicated that the State will not activate the signal on that State route unless warranted by traffic volumes. Mr. Ford noted that many motorists avoid the intersection by taking detours, but felt that volumes would be much higher if the intersection were functional. Joan Walker, 1433 Monterey Avenue NE, agreed that if the State activated the traffic signal, drivers would use the intersection at Sunset instead of detouring to Hardie Avenue SW behind Renton Shopping Center. Don Neuman, 380 Stevens Avenue SW, expressed concern for the safety of children bicycling.and walking on streets in the area. Mayor Shinpoch indicated that she would investigate the matter to determine whether volumes and number of emergency responses at the intersection meet State requirements to activate the signal.

Warren}, City Attorney RE: Drainage District #1 and Springbrook Creek Dear Bob: -. The City of Renton has been holding meetings with the Austin Company to try and obtain their agreement to :-:;'; ' construct certain portions of the P-1 Channel. One : of the things that Austin Company wishes to ensure is , that the Springbrook Creek be diverted at its inter- section with the proposed P-9 Channel SQ as to eliminate a diagonal crossing of their property. The City has promisedto try and accomplish that as quickly as possible. This Memo is an attempt to start the hall rolling. If and when the City constructs the P-9 Channel. it will intersect Springbrook Creek and carrythe water to the P-1 Channel, That would accomplish what Austin Company wishes. I understand that there may be problemswith the Department.. of Ecology, the Department of Fisheries and Drainage District #1. Can you start contacting those agencies now to "determine what steps must be taken. Also, is there any anticipated completion date of the• P-9. Channel? It may be necessary for us to hold a meeting on this topic so that we can coordinate the City's efforts. Right now I do not know enough about the project, the problems,.' the players or thetiming to know how to proceed, ' I need your help in determining the next step.. fillgrLarence J. •rren LJW:nd. cc: Mayor Ron Nelson.

Warren, City Attorney RE: Austin Company, P-1 Channel and Oaksdale , Dear Vince: This letter is a follow-up to our recent meeting with the Austin Company representatives. During the meeting we discussed the possibility that the Austin Company would excavate from the P-1' Channel and place the material on the proposed alignment of . Oaksdale. As I understand it the present elevation of the Oaks• - dale alignment is approximately 12. The applicant would anticipate placing four feet of fill, bringingthe elevation up to 16. Your . statement to me was that the ultimate elevation of the constructed roadway would be 20 or more. It is clear that the excavated material would provide necessary fill for Oaksdale. It is also clear that a preload on the roadway alignment would be beneficial to the City. In a number' of instances the material will probably be acceptable material for the fill on Oaksdale. It may be that some of the material will. be .unacceptable and would have to be excavated and disposed of prior to construction. of the roadway. What I would like you to comment upon is the acceptability of, this procedure. Is the cost of redigging out unacceptable material from the preload and disposing of it so great that it would be better for the City to sort the material as Austin was digging it? In a similar vein is the preload so beneficial to the City that we really do not care if some of the material is unacceptable? Is . this idea acceptable at all to the City? 1 i / , // Fince Lee July 25, 1986 / Page -2- You did indicate in the meeting that the idea appeared acceptable , to the Public Works Department, but I wanted to follow tbrolIgh , , ,, and give you some additional time to think abollt it, , . . . , V truly yours, . .

The Permit for Limited Use appears in appropriate legal form. The second document, the Easement over the P-1 Channel, is a grant from the City to Puget Power. I wonder why Puget Power did not retain an easement in its grant to the City of Renton. In fact, I believe they did. I then question whether or not this document is actually necessary. It is in appropriate legal form and I have no particular objection to it, I just question whether or not a duplicate easement is necessary. Very truly yours , Lawrence J.

MARK E. BARBER, ASSISTANT CITY ATTORNEY ZANETTA L.FONTES, ASSISTANT CITY ATTORNEY MARTHA A.FRENCH, ASSISTANT CITY ATTORNEY April 11, 1985 TO : Bob Bergstrom, Engineering Supervisor FROM: Lawrence J. Warren, City Attorney RE : P-1 Channel Project - First City Equities Right-of-Entry, Dear Bob : I reviewed the document provided to me. I do note that in paragraph number (7) there is a reference to a letter dated October 11, 1984 from Earth Consultants to First City Equities . That letter is made a part of this contract and I have not had a chance to review that letter and therefore cannot comment upon it. Paragraph (6) requires that the City name the. Grantor as an additional insured on the City' s insurance policies . We probably can do that with the umbrella carrier , but it should be clear in this agreement and otherwise that we are self-insured to a certain extent. On the general tenor of the right-of-entry, I have some questions . It would appear that this agreement is strictly for the benefit of the City of Renton. If that is the case, then the agreement is in .appropriate form. However , if First City Equities has any substantial obligations to perform this project , then the agreement is unnecessarily weighted against the City. To put it another way, First City Equities is being a good citizen in letting us put this dirt on their property, then we should assume all of these responsibilities . However, if First City is required to accept this dirt , then they should assume more of the responsibilities and obligations .

The first Phase I of the P-1 Soil Conservation Service Channel is underway. The SCS is willing to proceed with a second Phase II, which could begin as soon as November, 1984, that would extend as far as perhaps S.W. 16th St. The City Sponsor- ship of Phase II is requested. PARTIES OF RECORD/INTERESTED CITIZENS TO BE CONTACTED: SUBMIT THIS COPY TO CITY CLERK BY NOON ON THURSDAY WITH DOCUMENTATION. AGENDA ITEM - Page 2 P-1 Channel Future Phases As a result of previous City Sponsorship, the Federal Soil Conservation Service has begun the Phase I work on the P-1 East Side Green River Drainage Channels. The City coordinated land acquisition for both the channel right-of-way and for earth fill sites; acquired a portion of the Panther Creek Wetlands; obtained the necessary permits; utility relocations and locally required insurance at a total cost to the City of about $2,000.00. The SCS just opened bids on March 12th for the first phase of channel work that includes about 17 acres of new widened and deepened flood storage pond, wild life habitat and maintenance improvements at a cost of about $850,000.00, well below construction estimates. In our recent discussions with SCS, the federal agency is ready to proceed with a second phase as early as perhaps this November, 1984, if the City assumes sponsorship and provides the necessary rights-of-way, permits and wetlands. Our department proposes to continue to build the P-1 and P-9 Channels through Renton on a phased program and requests City sponsorship of this proposed second phase. Our share of this activity would be: 1 . Obtain permits from State Fish & Game Department, City Building, Filling and Grading. 2. Complete Right-of-way transfer to the City. All affected properties have agreed in principal of dedication of the right-of-way as a condition of rezones. 3. Purchase increment of Panther Creek Wetlands. The City has budgeted about $13,000 in the 1984 budget for this next increment. 4. City to relocate bridges and utilities. This second SCS phase coordinates well with the proposed Grady Way Street L.I.D. and should avoid the problems of temporary brdiging across Springbrook Creek. If this second phase is completed, future SCS participation is available to com- plete the project to Kent. Your support for this next SCS project is requested. ..i 6 IN ... .__. ...... ....1 _...._ ... \.: 1 , -1-ji":.:4 1 1 . .1./:. ` /1,6 \ . • till I 1 1. 1 . lk - )\\ 1 \ - - •i:...,.....; IL i (4isi 1 .. i zas s• L- ....-- / 1 ••:.-,2.1= 1_ .. .t.,:i 1 �j' -Zg01941_ 1 \ ` 111111 1riAWASTON s NII �'� •'�, 11 \ Atli,• .._� \ 1F1 —:; a .6,Ih III mill —•■■■__ . ►� i .,.. • �i IIIU 'llak. a1Y_ ;gI�rlI1►11Vviell .1-- '%-, •,eY VO ME . , Lp . . syrk_ ..dbtaba li I, - t ) 1,,.....2q 1 , \ mulloo .. .

MINUTE APPROVAL MOVED BY TRIMM, SECONDED BY MATHEWS, COUNCIL APPROVE THE MINUTES OF AUGUST 1 , 1983 AS PRESENTED. CARRIED. AUDIENCE COMMENT Charmaine Baker, 3713 Meadow Avenue N. , representing Renton RAPT Production Municipal Arts Commission, extended a special invitation to of Two-Act Play Mayor Shinpoch and Council members to a premier reading of an by Ed Harkness, original two-act play by Eti Harknesson Friday, September 9, History of 1983, at Carco Theater. Mr. Harkness, poet and playwright, Renton in 1940' s was commissioned for a one-year pilot program through a grant application to Washington State Arts Commission sponsored by the Renton School District and Renton Arts Plan Together (RAPT) , consisting of 12 different arts groups formed to keep the arts alive and well in Renton. Mr. Harkness has been teaching classes to various school and senior citizen groups, and has written the play, a history of Renton during the 1940' s, as a stipulation of the grant. Since attendance at the production is by invitation only, response by August 26th was requested. Highland Village Building & Zoning Director Ronald G. Nelson apprised the Council Development - of findings resulting from Renton Hill Community Association Renton Hill request for information regarding new development at the end Community of Grant Avenue S. (Highlands Village) . According to Mr. Nelson, Association all work accomplished to date appears to conform to Council policy and requirements established by the city prior to the issuance of the building permit, including construction of a cul-de-sac within a utility easement designated as greenbelt, and dedication of a 60-foot right-of-way to continue northerly from the cul-de-sac to Grant Avenue with improvement of 20 feet of that right-of-way required to allow emergency access to the new development. That road will be fenced and locked to prohibit unauthorized access, with requirement for installation of landscaping and hydroseeding on the remaining 40 feet. Mr. Nelson anticipated cooperation between the city, Renton Hill Community Association, and the contractor during the project, with a good working relationship evident at this point. CONSENT AGENDA Items on the Consent Agenda are adopted' by one motion which follows the listing: P-1 Channel Public Works Department submitted supplemental P-1 Channel Agreement Agreement transferring responsibility for lead agency from King County to City of Renton. Refer to Community Services Committee. Schneider Land Use Hearing Examiner recommended approval with conditions Preliminary of preliminary plat and variance requests for Schneider Homes, Plat Inc.

Mobile Home Executive Department submitted request by Oakhurst Development Park Utility Corporation for changes to Ordinance No. 3659 pertaining to Connection special water and sewer connection charges and payments for Charges mobile home parks. Refer to Utilities Committee. Renton City Council May 16, 1983 Page Four Planning and Ray Griffin, 14306 144th Avenue SE, discussed his sole concern Development with the covenant condition regarding timing and participation of Committee the applicant in downstream channel improvements. Mr. Clemens continued outlined the intent of the condition to provide a mechanism by Northward . which the city or county can take mitigating actions within that Rezone Appeal . canyon area with the assistance of the property owner, Maplewood Heights Maintenance Corporation, to provide annual maintenance. Continued Lawrence Vickers, 13419 SE 141st Street, cited past instances during which unstable soil in the area caused damage and flooding, particularly in the area at the end of 138th Street. Continued Versie Vaupel , 400 Cedar Avenue S. , asked for clarification of Finding No. 17 of the committee report which states that sufficient water and sewer service currently exists to accommodate populations anticipated to live within the city limits, since it may be interpreted to include future annexations. Following discussion regarding the need for clarification in the report, it was MOVED BY,.REED, SECONDED BY ROCKHILL, THE MOTION BE AMENDED TO ADD THE FOLLOWING REVISION TO FINDING NO. 17 OF THE COMMITTEE REPORT: "THERE IS CURRENTLY SUFFICIENT WATER AND SEWER SERVICE TO ACCOMMODATE POPULATIONS ANTICIPATED TO LIVE WITHIN THE PRESENT . CITY LIMITS. . .". Councilman Stredicke restated his request for a written statement of sewer capacity in the area. Mr. Clemens related, his understanding that the line to be constructed by the applicant from the subject site to the northeast corner of the Fernwood development will be of sufficient size to accommodate the proposal ; however, additional development will require replacement of undersized lines further south. MOTION CARRIED. Continued Councilman Stredicke indicated construction of existing sewer lines had been funded by residents of the Maplewood Heights, Heather Downs and Fernwood communities; now the applicant is connecting without contribution; and for the record, he stated there was no participation to anyone's knowledge by any property owner north of Fernwood in construction fundingof that sewer line. -`Original motion to concur in the Planning and Development Committee report as amended was restated. ORIGINAL MOTION AS AMENDED CARRIED. (Examiner overturned. ) Councilman Stredicke requested his "no" vote be recorded. For the record, Councilman Reed requested the minutes reflect the concerns of residents who testified. ADMINISTRATIVE `Mayor Shinpoch reported a meeting was held 5/11/83 with the Green REPORT River Basin Executive .Committee and representatives of the Corps Management .of Engineers, Soil Conservation Service, and F.E.M.A. to discuss of Green management of the Green River and address the unresolved issue River/ of a channel to protect against flood waters, since plans to Construction construct the P-1 Channel with Federal funds were abandoned in of Drainage July of 1982. Currently, 1 .6 million dollars are available Channel through the Jobs Bill program to complete phase one of the channel ptase I . by the City of Renton, with the SCS doing the construction and (Advanced) Renton assuming maintenance of their portion of the channel . Policy Development Director Clemens explained funding, location of proposed channel , and previously approved Council policies for a development permit process which require dedication of property as part of development. He reported because owners of two large parcels lin the area desire to develop at this time, acquisition of the necessary right-of-way was possible and greatly reduced costs of Ithe project; most property owners have been contacted regarding the proposal ; and it is hoped other jurisdictions will follow suit with similar projects. Continued 'Mayor Shinpoch introduced SCS representatives Joe Henry. and Bill Cokely who advised commitment to a project necessary by December 31 , 1983 to be eligible for the funding, with eligibility requirements having been met by the city. Responding to inquiries regarding costs of maintenance, Mr. Copley indicated that information is yet unknown but should not exceed $10,000 per year. MOVED BY ROCKHILL, SECONDED BY TRIMM, THE ADMINISTRATION BE AUTHORIZED TO CONTINUE TO INVESTIGATE THIS PROPOSAL WITH A PROVISO THAT NO FIRM COMMITMENT WOULD BE MADE WITHOUT COMING BACK TO COUNCIL. Kay Johnson, Manager, Renton Chamber of Commerce, indicated that a prior estimate of $200,000 per year for maintenance included all channels and maintenance of the pump station. MOTION CARRIED. Renton City Council May 16, 1983 Page Three Planning and Conclusion No. 1 : Subparagraph 2 should be modified to read as Development follows: The applicant has met the burden to show that the proposal Committee is in the public interest. The proposal meets criteria B and C of continued Section 4-3010. The subject site is potentially designated on the Northward Comprehensive Plan for the requested zone classification. There Associates have been material and substantial changes in circumstances since Rezone the last rezoning of this property due to changes of zone Appeal classifications in the surrounding area and the development of R-018-82 commercial and residential properties in the general vicinity east (G.M. Associates) of Union Avenue. Conclusions No. 2, 3, 4 and 5 should be deleted. Committee The City Council should approve the requested zone classification Report subject to execution by the owners of record of all of the real continued property encompassed within this proposal of Restrictive Covenants running with the land containing the covenants which are attached to committee report. (Correction to page 2 of the covenants: Item 5, last word changed from "department" to "development.") MOVED BY ROCKHILL, SECONDED BY REED, COUNCIL CONCUR IN THE RECOMMENDATION OF THE PLANNING AND DEVELOPMENT COMMITTEE REPORT. Councilman Stredicke indicated he would have signed the committee report if he had received a written statement as requested from Public Works Department • regarding capacity of drainage and sewer systems in the area to accommodate entire city limits of Renton; and an advance copy of restrictive covenants. He also cited necessary criteria upon which an appeal is based, error in judgment not being accepted; questioned whether the subject appeal was based on the Examiner's judgment that the development is premature; and referenced a letter from the City Attorney of 8/9/82 outlining requirements for appeal based on error of fact or law. City Attorney Warren reviewed ordinance requirements, noting the City Council cannot substitute its judgment upon appeal ; however, in this case,' the committee had found an error in finding of the fact that the development is premature. Continued Mary Merbach, 13732 S.E. 141st Street, representing Maplewood Heights Maintenance Corporation, expressed ongoing concerns of residents regarding potential erosion to the canyon walls and spring bed in the association's primitive park and greenbelt area. Copies of correspondence between city officials and the association and a transcript of testimony by the association's registered geologist at a King County Council meeting on 3/6/72 were submitted regarding soil and drainage problems in the area. Councilman Reed referenced mitigating measures required in restrictive covenants which specify the applicant's participation in a new Heather Downs Creek reserve fund for channel improvements. Mrs. Merbach indicated concern regarding timing of the improvement project, requesting accomplishment prior to the subject development. Continued Mary Ellen Hamblin indicated concern regarding the validity of the appeal due. to alleged violations in the process, specifically related to dismissal of the applicant's arguments in the appeal as insufficient to reverse the Hearing Examiner; and acceptance of an appeal framed by staff. David Clemens, Policy Development Director, noted the Examiner had made an error of omission in that Council 's policy on development near Valley General Hospital re traffic constitutes strong argument in favor of the subject proposal ; and although the applicant's appeal was insufficient, the matter was open for discussion of the full range of facts related to the project which culminated in a conclusion that the Examiner had committed several errors. City Attorney Warren further 'clarified the role of staff to assist in review of appeals with the members of the Planning and Development Committee, with final discretion resting with the City Council . Continued Councilman Mathews referenced Finding No. 13 of the committee report which states: 1-405 will be 25% over capacity as a result of predicted growth even after construction of high occupancy vehicle lanes, and questioned the error cited. Mr. Kresovich advised that statement is not in error, but was deleted since it was not germaine to the issue and did not lead to the desired outcomeby the committee of approval of the proposal ; and traffic generated by the development will be an insignificant percentage when added to total volumes on 1-405. ADMINISTRATIVE REPORT May 16, 1983 The Green River Basin Executive Committee met with technical staff people and representatives from the Corps of Engineers, the Soil Conservation Service, and F.E.M.A. on Wednesday, May 11th at the Renton Library. The agenda called for a status report fromthe professionals and a proposal to prepare an agreement among the entities for the management of the Green River. This is necessary with or without a channel . The draft will be ready in September. Most of the meeting was devoted to consideration of a plan developed by Renton staff to address the unresolved issue of the channel to protect against flood waters. Plans to construct the P-1 using Federal funds were abandoned last July by mutual agreement among the cities of. Tukwila, Kent, Auburn, Renton and King County. After more than 20 years of meetings and proposals, Renton concluded the effort was not progressing toward resolution based on disagreements over equitable funding and reluctance/inability to advance local money to begin the project. All jurisdictions agreed that without Renton there was little reason to continue. We either got credit or blame depending on one's point of view. The demise of the project was received with mixed emotions: relief (recognizing that a sense of urgency cannot be maintained over two decades) and despair (acknowledging that we hadn't solved the problem) . Every foot of development in the valley exacerbated the situation. It will continue to rain. The runoff will increase. The prospect of a devastating 100 year flood cannot be eliminated by wistful thinking. A policy statement adopted by the Council at that time permitted us to explore alternatives. There is currently money available through the 205 (Jobs Bill ) program to complete phase one of the channel . Renton is positioned to take advantage of this oppor- tunity. We have secured the necessary right-of-way, we have wetlands for mitiga- tion, and we have sources for the disposition of the spoils. Phase one would ease our runoff storage problem, provide some relief. to Kent, and not impact any other jurisdiction adversly. The city would hope to acquire the 1 .6 million allowed under 205, have the Soil Conservation Service do the construction, and have Renton assume the maintenance of our portion of the channel . Mr. Houghton believes this cost would be minimal and, at this writing, is still trying to get figures from Drainage District #1 . The representatives, both technical and political people, appeared to agree that Renton going it alone was an appropriate start and offered hope for the project. We asked that they not formally approve until we had authority from our City Council to proceed. No one voiced an objection to our proposal and my only concern is that after years of trying, 'this solution appears too simple. We need Council direction.

SHINPOCH MAYOR MEMORANDUM DATE: _ June 22, 1982 • TO: Barbara Y. Shinpoch, Mayor Members of the City Council FROM: David R. Clemens, Policy Development Director Pi RE: ADDITIONAL ISSUES ON THE EASTSIDE WATERSHED PROJECT At the Council meeting of June 21, 1982, Mr. Kay Johnson of the Chamber of Commerce raised two additional issues which need consideration. First, who will prepared the actual design of the physical improvements for the future drainage facilities, and secondly, whether the existing Environmental Impact Statement prepared by the SCS could be utilized by the City as a part of the adoption of its regulations. Finally, Mr. Hughes asked for clarification of the 100 year storm which occurred during October, 1981. The following discussion should clarify each of these issues. CONVEYANCE FACILITY DESIGN As suggested in the letter of June 11th, adopted by the City Council on June 21st, the City intends to adopt as an interim measure the SCS/P-1 project alignment for conveyance of flood waters from the Eastside Watershed area. Further, the City intends to participate in an agreement for operation of the Green River during flood conditions. The result of this agreement will provide us with the necessary base data to establish the amount of flooding which can be expected, the, storage required to protect all properties and to establish basic engineering design criteria. Each application for a construction permit within the Eastside Watershed area would then be subject to storage regulations predicated on the design factors just established. If the applicant chooses to place the storage on-site, that on-site design would be subject to normal engineering review and environmental evaluation. If, however, the proponent chooses to construct within the conveyance right-of-way established by Council policy, the applicant will be responsible for the preparation of all engineering design necessary to accommodate the construction work. This engineering design will be subject to environmental review as would any other construction. Given the fact that the majority of property owners within the Valley area own significant acreages, it may be wise for these property owners to pool their resources and prepare a single engineering design for the conveyance facilities. However, there is no requirement that any property owner participate in this engineering design, except at such time as they wish to develop their own property. Thus, the private market place can establish both the timing and the cost to individual property owners for design of the conveyance facilities. Barbara Y. Shinpoch, Mayor Members of the City Council June 22, 1982 Page Two ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REVIEW Mr. Johnson is correct that the City cannot simply establish that the prior SCS EIS for the P-1 channel system covers the City's regulations or proposals. However, both the National and State Environmental Policy Acts clearly establish that prior environmental impact documentation can be utilized as the basis for determining environmental consequences of future actions. In this case, until such time as the City is prepared to adopt specific regulations for flood storage and conveyance, each construction project proposed within the Valley area would be subject to environmental scrutiny. Any project of any consequence will probably be faced with the requirement for the preparation of an Environmental Impact Statement which would clearly define both the potential flooding hazards and establish means for protecting all properties from these flooding hazards. In this case, both the protection of onsite development proposed by the applicant and adjoining property owners will be protected through the environmental review process. At such time as the• City is prepared to adopt specific storage regulations for the Valley in conformance with the Green River Operating Agreement, a specific environmental review will be required. I believe that the process will probably include an expanded Environmental Checklist which would have to be circulated to all public agencies with jurisdiction (including numerous local, state and federal agencies) for their review and comment. If the ERC established that the required mitigation for the City's regulations are the same as those required for mitigation of the SCS/P-1 project (foremost, the preservation of 110 acres of wetland properties) that the existing EIS will be sufficient. However, as part of the review process either public agencies or the general public at large may suggest additional environmental mitigation. As a part of the review, the ERC will have to consider all comments and make a final determination. Whatever mitigating measures are established must be adopted by the City Council as part of the adoption of the regulations. Based upon my current understanding of the required mitigation for the SCS/P-1 project, I am confident that if the City adopts those mitigating measures that the current EIS will be sufficient. If the City chooses some alternate means for establishing flood safety within the Valley area, it is likely that a complete Environmental Impact Statement would have to be prepared which would include both the City's actual cost of preparation and circulation, but also its future defense, if challenged. LAST OCTOBER'S 100 YEAR STORM As Mr. Hughes correctly points out, during early October, 1981, a storm of a magnitude approximating a 100 year storm event did deposit in excess of three inches of rainfall in a 24 hour period. Fortunately, due to the ambient conditions, this 100 year storm event did not lead to a 100 year flood. It is very important to establish the distinction between the two. The 100 year storm is a statistical model of the probable magnitude of a storm with the frequency not exceeding a 1% chance of its occurance during any one calendar year. A 100 year flood is a statistical model of the results of a 100 year storm given typical winter ambient conditions such as saturated ground, normally high flows on tributary streams and so on. Barbara Y. Shinpoch, Mayor • Members of the City Council June 22, 1982 Page Three - The October,'1981, storm occurred at the very end of a long dry summer season which the ambient conditions were themost favorable for reducing the impacts of the 100 year storm which occurred. As a result, although there was flooding to certain streets and parking areas (notably East Valley and Longacres area) no significant flooding or flood damage occurred. The total flooded areas were more similar to five or ten year storm events which happen frequently during the winter season. The Technical Advisory Committee has discussed on several occassions the results of the October rains. All of the technical people that I have spoken to have indicated that had the same storm occurred during December or January when the ambient conditions would have been at their worst possible, that the 100 year storm would have in fact created a 100 year flood and created a flooded area similar to that illustrated in the FEMA flood hazard maps. If you have any questions with regard to these issues, please feel free to call on me at your convenience. cc: Environmental Review Committee Renton City Council June 21 , 1982 Page 3 Port Quendall Benella Caminiti , 2919 Mayfair Avenue North, Seattle, member of Audience Comment the Coast and Shoreline Committee of the Washington Environmental Continued Council , inquired regarding distribution of the Environmental Impact Statement for Port Quendall and it was determined the Washington Environmental Council was on the mailing list. Ms. Caminiti warned regarding developer intentions not fulfilled. John DuBois, 2907 Mountain View Avenue North, encouraged the Council to take its time to thoroughly consider the future impact of Port Quendall on the City, its citizens and the environment. Bill McLaughlin, 10630 SE 176th, spoke definitely in favor of the Port Quendall Project. John Phillips, 403 Columbia Street, representing the Port Quendall Development Company, introduced Jim Schuler, president of the company, John Anthony, Planning Department of CH2M Hill , Inc. , and El Baylis, architect. Mr. Phillips wished to clarify certain points : 1. The Findings of Fact are the same as the Hearing Examiner' s with minor changes. 2. The Planning and Development Committee has reviewed every issue presented. This is a three phase development over 30 years with the first ten-year phase in residential development with ample opportunity for comment/supervision. 3. High rises will not be on the shoreline, but back 200 feet. Bud Worley, 4100 Lake Washington Boulevard North, vice president of the Eastport Shores Condominium Owners Association, indicated the majority of the association favored Port Quendall Development due to positive impact on Renton, public access to Lake Washington, additional boat moorage, and additional employment opportunities at the commercial and retail outlets. Pierre Thiry, 6619 Ripley Lane North, in favor of Port Quendall Development, expressed concerns regarding possible property tax increases; where responsibility would lie if future impact of the development is greater than anticipated; problems caused by the proposed marina: Marine patrol workload, East Channel congestion, water and noise pollution; and whether these problems were being addressed by the developer. Roger Leed, 144 Fourth Avenue, Suite 520, Seattle, Attorney repre- senting citizens group, Concerned About Port Quendall , expressed his clients' concerns regarding the appeal procedure and whether the Planning and Development Committee considered the record made before the Hearing Examiner, lack of citizen participation in the committee meetings, no transcript of committee meetings, using a judgmental rather than appellate approach, police and fire protec- tion, schools and roads. Mr. Leed felt the present agreement to be an enhancement of property values rather than a development.

Burlington Northern wishes to be active in solving the problem. Mayor Shinpoch noted that three commissioners of Drainage District #1 had been invited to the meeting, but had left due to the late hour, and that Council action tonight would be carried to the Basin Executive Committee meeting for the Eastside Watershed Project on July 1 . Letter from Policy Development and Public Works Departments (delayed from Council meeting of 6/14/82) , listing six-point recommendation on possible City withdrawal from the SCS/P-1 Project, was discussed.

Shinpoch, Mayor Members of the City Council 200 Mill Avenue South Renton, WA 98055 RE: EASTSIDE WATERSHED PROJECT Dear Mayor and Council Members: On July 1, 1982, the Basin Executive Committee for the Eastside Watershed Project will be holding a meeting to determine the status of the project. The Basin Executive Committee believes that this meeting should affirm the local sponsor participation in the SCS/P-1 Channel system, or that the participants should withdraw from further study and analysis of the project. During the last nine months, the property owners in the Phase I area between the Grady Way and the P-1 Pump Station have unsuccessfully attempted to devise a system for insuring the commencement of the Phase I construction. As a result of these circumstances and the prior City Councilaction indicating public funds would not be utilized for initiating the project construction, the Policy Development and Public Works Departments have prepared the following proposal as a response to the Basin Executive Committee's meeting of July 1st. These recommendations are as follows: 1. The Renton City Council is prepared to withdraw from the SCS/P-1 project as a result of the failure of the affected property owners to establish a reasonable mechanism for funding the local costs of this proposal. 2. The Renton City Council supports the development of an interagency flood emergency operating agreement to establish the criteria for pumping from the P-1 pump station during high flows on the Green River. Further, the Renton City Council is prepared to fund the estimated cost of the preparation of such an agreement to amount not exceeding $4,000. 3. As a result of the City's withdrawal from the SCS/P-1 project in its current form, the Renton City Council believes that the adoption of a conveyance design for flood waters from the Eastside Watershed area must be adopted. As an interim step, the City of Renton adopts the P-1 Channel alignment from S.W. 43rd Street northerly to the Black River Pump Station. Such alignment and flood storage capability shall be more precisely defined as a result of a hydrologic analysis which will follow the completion of the interagency flood emergency operating agreement as discussed in Point 2 above. Cp �, (, Barbara Y. Shinpoch, Mayor Members of the City Council June 11, 1982 Page Two 4. As a result of the study identified in item three above, the City of Renton will establish flood storage regulations consisting .of two components; first, relief from the existing required flood storage, and, second, on-site retention of future runoff from newly developed properties. Although no precise number has been established at this time, it would appear that approximately two cubic feet of water storage would be required for every one square foot of new property development on the valley floor (those properties below elevation 25). 5. The City of Renton will adopt regulations providing that a property owner may determine whether to excavate the required flood storage area (item four above) on the site being developed or incrementally construct the P-1 system commencing at the P-1 pump station and progressing southerly towards S.W. 43rd. All spoils removal, utility relocations and street crossing requirements would be the responsibility of the proponent. 6. If a storm drainage utility is instituted on a citywide basis, the City Council will consider providing a portion of the capital funding for the storm drainage system for the valley area to provide for some of the cost of wetland property acquisition and, utility and street crossings of the drainage channels. The drainage utility may also be considered as the proper method for future funding of maintenance costs for these facilities. The Policy Development and Public Works Departments recommend that the six points noted above should be considered .at a public meeting which we would suggest be held on Monday, June 21, 1982, in order to obtain public comment on these recommendations.

Letter from Policy Development Director Clemens re- . called Council request of the Planning Commission forconsidera- tion of the Wetland Study prepared by the Planning Department during early 1981 , one subject being. the retention or valuation of the City's wetland area. The letter noted that pending the Commission's recommendation, other items should be considered. The wetlands have considerable value as natural habitat, as well as for possible trading for other properties of similar habitat value. (As noted in Wetland Study: most significant wetland habi- tat value is Black River Riparian Forest, north of Earlington Renton City Council 2/22/82 Page 2 Audience Comment - Continued Continued Golf Course, and of similar significance is Panther Creek Wetland Wetland Property east of the Valley Freeway.) . .As interim recommendation the Policy Relocation - Development letter suggested that any property or real value Value Retention obtained from the Renton wetlands locations should be retained for wetland acquisition purposes; and further recommended that until such time as the Council has adopted a formal policy re the retention or acquisition of wetlands within the Valley area, the dollar value of the wetlands should be preserved for future wetland acquisition at alternate locations or the preservation and enhancement of the existing wetland location. Discussion ensued; Clemens explained the area in question refers to City's wetland 20 acres adjacent to Burlington Northern property. Stredicke explained the realignment of SW 27th St. at the north of the City's wetland property and the ordinance ordering condemnation for the roadway which will consist of half private property and half City wetland property. Stredicke expressed concern that an equal por- tion of wetland property be retained at that location or traded for other wetlands property before SW 27th deeds executed. Upon, in- quiry Clemens projected Planning Commission recommendation by end of year re wetland property relocation/value retention. Upon fur- ther inquiry Public Works Director Houghton explained need for LID No. 314 proceeding with realignment of SW 27th St. in :connection with LID.

SHINPOCH MAYOR Council President Earl Clymer Members of the Renton City Council SUBJECT: WETLAND PROPERTY RELOCATION/VALUE RETENTION Ladies and Gentlemen: As you are aware, the Renton Planning Commission has been requested by the City Council to consider a Wetland Study prepared by the Planning Department during early • 1981. One of the subjects to be considered by the Special Studies Committee of the Commission will be the issue of the retention or valuation of the City of Renton's wetland area. Until the Committee's review and Commission's recommendation are complete, the following items should be considered. The Renton wetlands have considerable value as natural habitat as well as for possible trading for other properties of similar habitat value. As noted in the Wetland Study, the wetland retaining the most significant habitat value is the Black River Riparian Forest (located north of the Earlington golf course). Other wetlands having similar 'significant value would include the Panther Creek Wetlands east of the Valley Freeway. As an interim recommendation, the Policy Development Department would suggest that any property or real value obtained from the Renton wetlands location should be retained for wetland acquisition purposes. The Wetland Study establishes substantial value for habitat purposes of the Renton Wetlands, and until such time as the Council has adopted a formal policy with, regard to retention or acquisition of wetlands within the Valley area, the value of these properties should be preserved. RECOMMENDATION: The dollar value of the Renton Wetlands should be preserved for future wetland acquisition at alternate locations or the preservation and enhancement of the existing wetland location.

Shinpoch, Mayor FROM: Lawrence J.Warren, City Attorney RE: P-1 Acquisition Dear Madam Mayor: I am sure you have heard by now that the State Department of Ecology has preliminarily decided that Springbrook Creek is of sufficient size and flow that it falls within their jurisdiction. , This would require the City to obtain a shoreline ' s permit before proceeding with any work on the P-1 Channel . Additionally, the Corps of Engineers and the Environmental Protection Agency . believe that a Corps 404 Permit may also be necessary. Lastly, the Austin Company, the entity that was going to dig a substantial portion of the P-1 Channel, has a preliminary indication that a 404 Permit will be necessary for filling part of their property. We also learned that another fill they wish will require a shoreline ' s permit and perhaps yet another 404 Permit. What this means is that the City-Austin Company Agreement for Austin Company to dig large portions of the P-1 Channel, is probably impossible of being performed on both sides. There is little likelihood that anyone would be able to perform in the near future and so I have discontinued my efforts to try and obtain the right of way for the P-1 Channel . There seems little reason to expend City monies to acquire right of way when the project is threatened or at least substantially delayed. Once we are a little closer to actually building the project then we can re v- the effort. Lawrence J.

On the P-1 channel at station 169+00 there are two domiciles that may involve relocations. Estimated cost of relocating these families is $10,000. At station 348+00 a family may be displaced at an expected cost of $5,000. . On the P-2 channel at station 269+50 a family may be displaced at an expected relocation cost of $5,000. It is estimated that the cost of relocating the affected families will total $20,000. This cost will be shared by the Service and the Sponsoring Local Organizations on the ratio of PL-566 funds to other funds in total project cost. This ratio is 30 percent Local and 70 per- cent PL-566. The Service will provide up to the first $25,000 for each displacement occurring prior to July 1 , 1972. The Sponsoring Local Organizations will provide relocation advis- ory services Without PL-566 cost sharing. The services to be provided by the Sponsoring Local Organizations are prescribed under Public Law 91-646 (84 Stat. 1894) . Services to be performed by the Sponsoring • Local Organizations consist of acquainting the to-be-displaced persons of their rights under the Act and to assist these persons in finding decent, sanitary and safe housing. The cost of this service is esti- , mated to be $4,000. This service is to be performed by King County without PL-566 cost sharing. The sponsors have determined that decent, safe and sanitary housing is available for, all persons subject to dis- placement by the project, and that displaced persons will be given notice to vacate at least 90 days before they have to move. King County, a sponsor, will (1 ) provide personally or by first class mail , written notice of displacement and appropriate application forms to each displaced person, (2) assist in filing applications, (3) review and take action on 'applications for relocation assistance, (4) review and process grievances in connection with displacements , and (5) make relocation payments. The Service will assist the speci- ' fied sponsor in fulfilling these responsibilities. King County, as coordinating sponsor, will arrange for a specific sponsor to finance the sponsors share of relocation payments and the cost of relocation advisory services for those relocations occurring ' within that sponsors arca of jurisdiction. Such payments will be from funds legally available and appropriated for this purpose. 1 • • • There will be little or no economic effect from the small number of displacements due to this project. Because of ambiguity in the plan, it is agreed that the last • • - sentence of the last paragraph on page 27 of the Work Plan be changed • to read as follows: "This has been recognized by estimates of construction and cost, shown in Tables 1 and 2, which contain contingency allowances to compensate for possible latent conditions." In accordance with requests from the sponsoring organizations the Service will perform the administration of remaining contracts. All references related to Installation Services and Administration of Contracts on page•33 and elsewhere shall be changed to consider engineering services and project administration. PL-566 costs are estimated as Engineering Services $730, 100 and Project Adminiration $991 ,750. Costs for other funds are estimated to be $169,8401for Project Administration. • • • 1/ Includes $105,000 for incurred costs of Administration of Contracts for the P-1 Discharge Works and $60,840 for such items as local sponsor coordination. 2 TABLE 1 - ESTIMATED PROJECT INSTALLATION COSTS East Side Green River Watershed, Washington Number , .

Dear Ms. Mead; • This letter is in response to City of Renton Resolution No. 21Q4 regarding the fund- ing for the acquisition and maintenance of conservancy'wetlands for wildlife. protec tion and recreation purposes. Currently, the state provides two programs for, this purpose. The Interagency Committee on Outdoor Recreation provides grants to state and local units of government for the purpose of purchase anddevelopment of parks, open space, green belts, and wildlife' recreation areas. The House budget included $21.3 million for this program for 1977-79 which is an increase. 'of, $7.4 million over the 1975-77 biennium. The program is financed through funds from the Federal Bureau of Outdoor Recreation, Referendum 28, ATV Fuel `. Tax and Permit Fees, and the Outdoor Recreation Account. , The Department of Game, Environmental Management Program, has requested $4.4 million , for land acquisition and management to guarantee a land and water base for wildlife. This program allows land, which is the key to the survival of wildlife, to be acquired. Currently, the Game Department owns or. controls 800,000 acres of land for this purpose. The budget will allow the Department to acquire an additional 6,000 acres during the 1977-79 biennium. , If the City of -Renton desires to acquire funds for the, acquisition of- specific wetland ' areas, I would suggest applying for funds through the Interagency Committee on Outdoor• - Recreation program that provides grants to local units of government for this' 'purpose..:. The Committee is located at 1800 Capitol Boulevard in Olympia and the Administrator, is Stan Francis (753-3610) . Once the City of Renton develops a specific proposal, I would be willing to review it and offer my assistance in working with the Interagency Committee on Outdoor Recreation.

As' background information, it should be noted that the application for Public Law-566 Watershed assistance on the Green River Projects was made and submitted by the Sponsors in 1960. Sponsors are King County Conservation District; the Cities of Renton, Auburn, Kent, and Tukwila; King County; and the Green River Flood Control District. The East and West Green River Watershed Work Plans were prepared, reviewed,' and approved by State agencies and the Governor, approved by the United States Congressional Committees, and authorized for construction in August 1966. Since that time, the Soil Conservation Service has assisted the Sponsors with engineering surveys, geologic investigations, preparation of de- tailed designs, specifications and drawings of various segments of these Work Plans. The only construction to date has been the Black River Pump Plant (P-1) which was completed in the summer of 1972. The National Environmental Policy Act of 1969, Public Law-91-190, which became effective January 1, 1970, required that significant federal actions be assessed in terms of their impact on the environment. Early interpretations of NEPA indicated that an Environmental Statement was not required for the Green River Project as construction had been authorized before NEPA went into effect. September 1, 1972 guidelines reversed this Policy, indicating that Environmental Statements are to be prepared for all projects involving channel work, unless agreement has been reached that the measures do not have significant adverse impacts. The latest guidelines by the Department of Agriculture were published in the Federal Register on November 19, 1973. Since 1972, the Soil Conservation Service has been involved with several Sponsors in gathering data and preparing an Environmental Impact State- ment on the Green River Watershed Projects. The Preliminary Draft Green River Watershed Project Environmental Impact Statement is now scheduled for agency and public review in June, 1974. This will be followed by revisions to incorporate public ., inputs and a formal public hearing before the statement can be final- ized and properly filed. 111 -2- Future Green River Project construction schedules hinge on filing of an Environmental Impact Statement. The uncertainty of future construction schedules and the emergency nature of the Tukwila flood problem led the City of Tukwila and King County to request the Soil Conservation Service to proceed with imme- diate technical and financial assistance in the construction of. the Tukwila Pump Plant and Channel (P-17) before the Green River Project Environmental Statement is completed and processed. This request was justified on the basis that the Tukwila Pump Plant and Channel (P-17) may be considered an independent evaluation unit. This action consists of removing an old, inadequate, rundown pump plant and constructing P-17 channel and discharge works to convey excess precipitation and runoff from approximately two square miles of drainage in the southern part of Tukwila to the Green River. The discharge works will consistof a reinforced concrete bay' sup- porting pumps and floodgates and discharging through pipe conduits into the river. Floodgates will discharge flows when the water eleva- tions on the land side are greater than the river stage, and will close when reverse flow from the river is imminent. The automatically- controlled pumps will operate to control land-side water levels at a predetermined elevation. A pump forebay will provide storage to facilitate pump operation. The 1,920 foot long P-17 Channel will collect and convey runoff from existing and proposed storm drainage systems to the pump plant. Effects When installed, the P-17 Pump Plant, forebay and channel will provide flood protection to the highly developed commercial-industrial area of southern Tukwila. The present evaluation of buildings and struc- tures in the area, excluding utilities and streets, is between 30 and 40 million dollars. Developments now underway and proposed for the near future may increase this evaluation tenfold. -- The installation will also serve as the focal point and catalyst for preserving at least a small part of the natural qualities of the area which might otherwise be lost in development. Environmental Impact The Green River Watersheds Environmental Assessment indicates the proposed action does not significantly affect the environment, and because of emergency conditions in the area, construction should pro- ceed on this independent evaluation unit prior to submission of an Environmental Impact Statement. • -3- The principal reasons or conclusion of no significant impact include the following: --A great portion of the area has already developed into a major commercial-industrial area. --Development will continue with or without construction of P-17 Pump Plant and Channel. --Most of the runoff from the area has already been confined to man-made storm drain channels or closed conduits. --The short reach of channel immediately above the discharge structure to be worked on is man-made, supports no significant fish population, and is not used for water supply. --Wildlife use of the area is low due to commercial-industrial development. Construction of the Pump Plant forebay of the proposed action will allow the City of Tukwila to preserve and enhance at least a small part of the natural qualities of the area through the development of "Duck Pond Park." This decision is supported and is documented in the form of many pri- vate and public meetings, public notices in the newspapers, circulari- zation of over 50 agencies, organizations, groups, and individuals, and a Formal Public Hearing, Environmental Impact Statement A separate Environmental Impact Statement for P-17 Pumping Plant and Channel will not be prepared and circulated. The Green River Water- sheds Environmental Statement, which is under preparation at this time, will include P-17 Pumping Plant and Channel.

Tariff Rates Councilman Grant submitted letters in response to Council referral of 11/19/73 to the Board of Public Works, consisting of letter from Puget Sound Power and Light Co. to the Board of Public Works Com- mittee Chairman Bennett re general tariff filed with the Washington Utilities and Transportation Commission and noted no preferential rate treatment proposed for special interest groups of customers as this would impose corresponding burdens on those customers not so benefited and cause additional administrative costs. The letter from the Board of Public Works to Mayor Garrett reported the tariff schedule review noted all utility tariffs are set by the Washington Utilities and Transportation Commission and if the City is. interested in pursuing a special rate for senior citizens or the economically disadvantaged, the request would be directed to the Commission who could direct the serving utility to give recognition to those groups in the rate structure. The Board of Public Works letter noted the purpose of the utility's basic minimum charge for providing service whether or not the utility was used, is to establish that all usage is subject to a charge and no amount of energy is furnished free and the alternative of reducing the minimum consumption may result in a higher total cost. The letter noted the three utility companies (Puget Sound Power and Light Co. , Washington Natural Gas Co. and Pacific Northwest Bell ) are requesting rate increases, and if City has questions, notice should be directed to Commission.

DRAINAGE CHANNELS At this time the meeting was turned over to County Councilman Dave Mooney. GREEN RIVER Councilman Mooney opened the meeting by saying that this meeting was calle VALLEY for the express purpose of reviewing what was agreed upon by the County an the Cities of Tukwila, Renton, Kent and Auburn back in 1960, and that very probably, very few people that were on the Councils in 1960 were now present, but there was no reason why Government, the people and industry Renton City Council Special Meeting Minutes Page 2, March 7, 1974 MEETING ON GREEN RIVER VALLEY DRAINAGE DRAINAGE CHANNELS cannot work together to accomplish what is needed in America, GREEN RIVER especially here in the Green River Valley, to keep payrolls and VALLEY keep the money circulating which is a necessity for good times in any community. The project is to bring about good, substantial planning for what each municipality plans to do and one thing that is sadly neglected throughout King County is storm water and proper drainage. This program must be developed if the Green River Valley is to develop to its ultimate. One of the requirements is that King County and the four municipalities buy 110 acres of soil here in the Valley and leave it untouched so that it can remain as a wetland for waterfowl to move in here and migrate. This is not a project for Tukwila, Kent, Auburn or Renton to go separately on their own ways, and when we talk about 110-acres of property for wetlands, it is goingto cost money, but by all of the jurisdictions working together, this can be accomplished, so that each of the cities can carry out the programs that have been laid out by your Planning Departments and other officials. Councilman Mooney introduced Mr. Brad Gillespie of the King County Public Works Department to give the audience a little of the historical background of the project. HISTORY OF GREEN Mr. Gillespie explained that what the sponsors, King County, the cities, RIVER VALLEY and King County Soil Conservation District agreed to in 1960 has changed DRAINAGE PROJECT considerably due to the emphasis on environmental protection. There are some new requirements that must be met if the Soil Conservation Ser- vice and the Federal Government are to continue in their efforts to com- plete the project for the Valley. Mr. Gillespie requested Mr. George Wannamaker, King County Department of Public Works, to give some of the background. With the aid of a map of the drainage system and pump- ing stations in the Valley, Mr. Wannamaker pointed out the various channels and pumping stations and gave a thumbnail sketch of the history of the project. Back in late 1959-1960 when the local residents, primaril: farmers in the valley, began to realize that a drainage project was feasib. for the Valley; Howard Hanson Dam was under construction and it wouldn't be long until the flow in the Green River Channel would be controlled, so an application for funds was made under Public Law No. 566 to go along with the drainage problem. The County, along with the four valley cities, and the King County Soil Conservation District sponsored this program through the Soil Conservation Service, and a little further along, we had the birth of the Green River Flood Control Zone District, which also became one of the sponsors. The application was made and approved through the S.C.S. and in the early 1960's, they did the planning and development of the project. In late 1965 and early 1966, the sponsors signed the plan and it went to Congress and was approved. It was explained there was one portion of the project completed, the major pumping plant that handles all the drainage on the east side, it was started in August, 1970, and accept& for operation in July, 1972. The Environmental Act was passed by Congress, and while this project had been approved by Congress, the Environmental Act became retroactive legislation and it was necessary to call a halt and to write an Environmental Impact Statement. The S.C.S. has been work- ing on this statement for a little over a year. Mr. Wannamaker explained that there were about sixty miles of channel involved, approximately thirty miles to each side. At this time, Mayor Garrett introduced Councilman Henry Schellert, Renton, who had just joined the meeting. Councilman Perry asked if this was the project that was started in 1964- 1965, rather than 1960. Mr. Wannamaker replied that the project applying for it was started in early 1960 and when the work plan was completed by the S.C.S. , it was presented to all the Cities, the County, all the sponsors in late 1965. There are two projects as far as the S.C.S. is concerned, the financial limitation under Public Law No. 566 of $5,000,000 in the initial stage of planning, and in order to have the projects for both sides, and still stay within the limitations, they were split, so there is an east side and a west side, and when they were sent to Congress, Congress acted on both plans within the same month. Councilman Perry asked when it was presented to Renton and Mr. Wannamaker replied that it was approved by the sponsors prior to August, 1966, as that was when it was approved by Congress. Renton City Council Special Meeting Minutes Page 3, March 7, 1974 MEETING ON GREEN RIVER VALLEY DRAINAGE (Continued) MR. LEWIS KEHNE, Mr. Kehne was asked to speak on the environmental aspects of the Valley ASSISTANT STATE under NEPA, National Environmental Policy Act of 1970. In order to CONSERVATIONIST proceed with the Green River Valley construction project, certain requirements are needed to satisfy the environmental concern and the ENVIRONMENTAL S.C.S. feel the sponsors should agree to before money can be put into ASPECTS construction. A supplement to the plan must be developed to go hand-in- hand with the Environmental Impact Statement. Some of the things pro- posed are that the sponsoring organization agree to purchase in title and perpetual easement and maintain public ownership during the life- time of the project an area that combines east and west Green River that will amount to 110 acres of suitable wetland habitat, locations to be approved by the S.C.S. and Washington State Dept. of Game. Also, the sponsoring muncipalities, with construction permit jurisdic- tion, as conditions for granting a permit, work out agreements that a 2% portion of their land be set aside to produce wild life habitat, and that this be landscaped to afford wild life desirable plants and vegeta- tion that would encourage their abode there, and to maintain it for the life of the project. He explained that by using the term "wild life", he was not necessarily referring to game birds, or game, but to song birds, small mammals, etc. It was suggested too that the land, while waiting for development, he left for wild life habitat. The sponsors must adopt a Land Use Plan or policy consistent with the regional plan of the Puget Sound Governmental Council, or whatever reasonable authority would have authority. There has to be some agreement as to how the land is going to be used in the future. Councilman Perry inquired if the additional 2% dedication that was being requested was in addition to the 110 acres required or part of the 110 acres , noting it didn't seem reasonable that an area that was designated "Light Industry", be only partially developed for that use and that the remainder be developed as a semi-wildlife habitat. It was explained that the 2% requirement was in addition to the 110 acres. Mayor Isobel Hogan of Kent inquired 'if `there was a minimum amount of acreage, if developed, where this 2% requirement would not apply. It was established that, as yet, no criteria had been set, but possibly woul be; also, there would be no objection to several different land owners combining their 2% section for wildlife habitat to form a larger area; in fact, it would be most desirable., Councilman Stredicke brought up the question that there was not yet any criteria set up for establishing what percentage each jurisdiction would have to pay for in purchasing the 110 acres of land required and that the meeting seemed premature, since there was nothing concrete to act upon. Councilman Grant asked if it was the intent of these channelizations to make available suitable agricultural land in the Valley. It was explaine that the intent of the original project and the scope was to reduce flood damages and to provide drainage for the valley, at the same time, when the plan was put together, it was recognized that there was going to be a certain amount of change of land use from its former of agricultural to industrial use and this was written into the plan. Industrial developmen has exceeded the rate anticipated. This, however, does not change the fact that the drainage goes in whether it goes to industrial or remains as an agricultural use area, the plan provides drainage and reduces flood damage. There is a limitation if you change the scope of the project, bring in some new element, that you are limited to $250,000, or $500,000, if you look at both east and west sides, before you have to go back to Congress for approval. There are certain rules in Public Law No. 566 as to what Federal funds can be used for, and one of them is not a single dollar can be spent for land acquisition, either for the wetlands or or acquiring right-of-way for channels or the pumps. This is all a non- Federal cost. Costs for construction of the pumps and the channels run approximately 95% Federal funds. Renton City Council Special Meeting Minutes Page 4, March 7, 1974 MEETING ON GREEN RIVER VALLEY DRAINAGE (Continued) Councilman Perry brought up a previous bond issue on this that was brought to a vote of the people and was turned down, the feeling being that the people who owned this land in the valley and adjacent hillsides should bear the cost, since they were the ones who would benefit from the construction. Councilman Grant brought out the point that he believed industry owning land in the valley and wanting industrial development on it would be cooperative with the environmentalists and would be willing to set aside portions of their land for this use, as they are the ones who will benefit most from this project. KENT LAND USE Upon query, Mr. James Harris, Planning Director of the City of Kent, PLAN explained a little about their Land Use Plan, where a certain amount of land be used for construction and the balance be approved for beautifica- tion, and remarked that they had excellent compliance from industry. COST SHARING Upon inquiry from Councilman Perry regarding a formula for participation FORMULA in the cost of the project, Councilman Dave Mooney said he thought there was only one fair way to do it, and that was that Tukwila, Renton, Kent, and Auburn, along with King County should contribute equally to acquire the wetlands, regardless of where the parcels of lands were located. Councilman Mooney stated that one of the biggest problems in King County was storm water control, on the hillsides you see many areas where erosion takes place during every storm. He is going to introduce legislation next week that a committee be set up consisting of the Health Department, the Environmental Development Committee, Hydraulics Division, along with the Budget and Long Range Planning Committee and adopt a long-range plan for all King County to control storm water. The Committee will report back in six months with what they recommend and how it is to be financed. FUNDING Mr. Johnson commented that first of all we have to agree on plans, secondly provide the amenities through zoning and landscaping and thirdly, the thing that hasn't been discussed directly is the matter of providing funding to meet the local matching funds for this project. These costs, including the 110 acres, right-of-ways, relocation of utilities, all the local match- ing elements will run in the range of $10,000,000 to $15,000,000. The Federal share of this project is in the range of $26,000,000. It should come substantially from those properties that are on the valley floor through the means of an appropriately designed service charge. RECREATION IN Councilman Perry inquired if the wildlife area could also be used for WETLANDS recreation. Councilman Mooney replied that as long as the recreation was not in competition with the wildlife use of it, such as bird watching, hiking and photography, there was no reason why they wouldn't be com- patible. ENVIRONMENTAL Mr. Brad Gillespie remarked that the Soil Conservation Service were IMPACT STATEMENT addressing themselves to the preparation of the Environmental Impact Statement, and that he thought it was in order that the Valley Cities and the County either accept or not accept this project. It should be accepted by the various legislative bodies, including the King County Council. Mr. Mooney said that they would prepare a proper Ordinance to present to the King County Council and it will be mailed to the Mayors of each municipality, with enough copies for each Councilman. If you desire to have other meetings at individual cities, the Hydraulics Division of the King County Public Works Dept. , and also, himself, would be available to discuss the contents with them. SITES FOR WILD- Upon query, Mr. Mooney said that there had been eight sites selected LIFE HABITATS tentatively to make up the 110 acres in concurrence with the Washington Department of Game and the United States Fish and' Wildlife Service, and they had been presented to the Audubon Society, Green for Tomorrow, the Sierra Club and other environmental groups. Councilman Perry inquired Renton City Council Special Meeting Minutes Page 5, March 7, 1974 MEETING ON GREEN RIVER VALLEY DRAINAGE (Continued) if it was their opinion that the 110 acres be made up of one parcel of land or split up. Mr. Mooney replied that they would not like the land in one parcel and emphasized that these parcels of land were still only tentative and subject to change, however, the Environmental people must be given consideration as to the best approach for the preservation of wildlife throughout the area. It was suggested that a Work Group of the Councilmen for each of the Cities and Councilman Mooney, and whatever technical help was needed for the deliberations, possibly have two or three meetings before the Supplement to the Work Plan is presented to the Councils for final action. Mayor Garrett remarked that if that was what was wanted, and since there was representatives of all the groups there, that each one of the jurisdictions could designate one member of their Councils, or one of their standing committees to work on the problem. In ensuing discussion, Councilman Stredicke asked what would happen if one of the participating agencies, voted against the program. A representative of the Soil Conservation Service said that the S.C.S. would not then be in a position to commit any money to go further with the project, since all the Cities and the County were responsible for the whole pro- ject, not just the side they are located on. SURVEY OF SITES Mrs. Jean Masters, Councilwoman from Kent, asked if wouldn't be worth- while to take a survey and find out if they weren't already in possession of the 110 acres, with all the puddles and streams in the valley that can't be built on, already conducive to wildlife. Councilman Perry suggested that a Council Committee, a Committee of all the Councils in the Valley be formulated to look into this land. The Mayor suggested that Councilman Mooney ask each city involved to notify him if they will agree to that and then set a date a few weeks away to supply members. He asked Councilman Mooney if he would take the responsibility of coordinating with the various agencies to set this up. Mr. Mooney accepted the responsibility. MANAGEMENT OF Councilman Stredicke remarked that in past hearings held on this WILDLIFE HABITAT area, it had been brought up that it doesn't matter how much land is set aside, unless you have management of that land, it is not going to do much good. Councilman Mooney stated that the State Department of Game had indicated interest in assuming management of these wetlands, but he did not know under what conditions they they would assume this. ADJOURNMENT IT WAS MOVED BY GRANT, THAT THE MEETING BE ADJOURNED. Councilman Mooney took this opportunity to express his thanks to the Mayor and the City Council for making the facilities available for this meeting, and to the Soil Conservation Group for being available, as well as the people from industry, and that King County looked forward to work- ing with the Valley Cities to see that every effort is made to accom- plish what had been set forth that evening.

Mr. Clemens was on vacation when the answers came and I delayed action on the matter until his return. On Thursday evening, we will present the following recommendations to Council as a policy response to this dilemma: 1 . No more fill allowed in the flood zone until after we review FEMA's new study. 2. No building permits issued if fill is required. 3. Building permits allowed if fill is not required. 4. Those (few) permits which have been issued prior to this new policy will be honored.

Barbara Y. Shinpoch, Mayor BYS:bd Attachment cc: Dave Clemens .r'� 4 FEDERAL EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT AGENCY IRE77i x �d Region X Federal Regional Center Bothell, Washington 98011 AUG t . 1 arY of olv RENT AUG 2 .1981 MAYOR'S OFFICE Honorable Barbara Shinpoch Mayor, City of Renton 200 Mill Avenue South Renton, Washington 98055 Dear Mayor Shinpoch: Thank you for your August 11, 1981 letter toMr. Wes Edens regarding the Flood Insurance Study for the City of Renton. The August 10th meeting that prompted your letter was very technical in nature. A full under- standing of the information revealed is not likely without an extensive knowledge of the technical directives given to Tudor Engineering (and our other Study Contractors). The primary purpose of this letter will be to clarify the City's understanding of the adequacy of its Flood Insurance Study. In fairness to Tudor Engineering, we believe that the analysis of flooding along Springbrook Creek and the Black River was accurate. It properly delineates flood elevations that would be experienced if the 100-year flood (base flood) were to occur on the Eastside Green River Watershed under conditions of development that existed at the time of the study. It is National FEMA policy to reflect only existing conditions at the time of the study. To do otherwise entails making projections of condi- tions that may never develop. The function of the floodway zone is to insure that the most sensitive hydraulic features of the study area do not change materially. You are correct that the floodway developed for Springbrook Creek was calculated on the basis of equal conveyance loss from each side of the Creek. The remaining conveyance was calculated to pass the discharge of the base flood without causing more than one foot of increase in flood elevation. The calculations have been checked by Dames and Moore and are correct, again for, conditions that existed at the time of the study. This last point is very significant because it relates directly to the study's inadequacy. Tudor's analysis shows that the base flood could have been discharged through the Black River Pumping Plant without causing flood elevations on the Black River to exceed 15' above mean sea level . However, the City's point is very weTi"taken at the area available to temporarily store the excess inflow to the sum.ine s ant ma not remain available; in act most ce,.taj..m ill not remain available without re ulat ro y pressure to prohibit filling or erection of dikes. he oss of that storage wflT—cause t1 'excess in ows to be stored or ponded to an . 2 elevation greater than 15' . Filling that has taken place since comple- tion of the study has already removed part of the calculated storage volume and made the 15' elevation obsolete. Our failure to designate approximately 1,080 acre feet of storage below elevation 15' then is the inadequacy in the City's Flood Insurance Study referenced in the previous paragraph. The loss of part of this storage and the resulting increase in ponding level behind the Black River Pumping Plant have made the floodway delineation for Springbrook Creek obsolete as well. Revised calcu- lations reflecting the present conditions will now require a wider conveyance floodway on Springbrook Creek in order to satisfy the sur- charge limitation. I believe you are entitled to an explanation for our failure to designate the required storage area as a floodway. That explanation lies in the technical directives that FEMA gives to its Study Contractors. Those directives are used nationally and are issued to assure that the resulting studies are uniform and of consistent quality. They also assure legal enforceability. The directive Tudor received for calculation of the floodway required establishment of an equal conveyance loss floodway. The historic channel of the Black River contains more than enough con- veyance to satisfy the flow and energy loss requirements. Accordingly, delineation of a conventionalfloodway outside the river banks would not have been appropriate. Other calculation methods have been approved on an exception basis to satisfy unique conditions, but their employment is not within the discretion of the Study Contractor. It is unclear whether. Tudor employees recognized the advisability of designating a floodway along the Black River. If they did, it was •not communicated to this office and, therefore, not to the City. Our failure to preserve the validity of Renton's Flood Insurance Study does not impose liability on the City. FEMA's policy has always been to pay for the initial Flood Insurance Study and any revisions necessary to keep it current. We do not foresee a change in that policy. Renton is obligated to enforce its adopted flood plain management ordinance which includes the Flood Insurance Study and its maps. Dis- charge of that obligation is therequirement for compliance with the National Flood Insurance Program regulations. At the same time, our letter strongly implies a wider understanding and wiTlig e s to cooperate eyonc FEU ob igation. , It will be a matter of several months until we can obtain approval and (Full din to reanalyze the Black River-Springbrook Creek floodway issue dnd'" assess the effect of filling that has already taken place. In the interim, we would consider it to be good judgement on the part of the City to adopt temporary policies that prevent further encroachments on the remaining land below elevation 15 or 16. Such a policy could take the form of a moratorium on development until we have completed our r 3 reanalysis and could be well justified on the basis of protecting (i, existing development from increased flood levels. At the same time, we have no right to insist that you adopt such a moratorium. We have initiated discussions with our Washington, D.C. office regarding your study problem. Our position is that a storage floodway is both highly justified and urgently needed. Your letter supports that position. We will keep you informed about the outcome of• those discussions.

' At the same time, the City Cbuncil approved a ' motion referring to council committee for discus- - sion the subject of a policy concerning develop- • ment on the Valley floor until a drainage plan.is implemented. The City Council,meeting in an informal work , , session last Thursday,essentially recommended to itself that the massive $58 million East Side Watershed Project be dropped in favor of a • cheaper plan that wouldn't have to be financed by the entire community. •The council believes property owners who would • be benefitted by a drainage plan to reduce flooding, • should pay for the project. A smaller drainage project probably would be funded through forma- tion of a local improvement'district. "We're not opposed to phase 1,phase 2,phase 3 or , phase 4(of the watershed project),"said Council- man Earl Clymer. "We're opposed to who was . - , going to payfor it." Under the original plan, involved property owners,King County,the feder- al government and the cities of Renton,Kent and Tukwila would have. paid for the watershed project. • . But Councilman Randall Rockhill reminded his • ' colleagues„"In voting down the overall drainage . program, it doesn't mean we don't need' a , • program." • In an attempt to clarify the council's intent, Council President Dick Stredicke said,"The coun- •cil action in effect says we are not building-the drainage project,at least not as envisioned'to this point." . Dave Clemens;acting Renton planning director, has raised the possibility of a building moratorium on the Valley floor ifa drainage .program isn't adopted.Mayor Barbara Shinpoch indicated Mon-, day night a policy statement on the general subject of.development on the Valley floor is needed while City Council continues .to work with property owners in looking at alternative drainage solutions.

Shinpoch, Mayor FROM: Del Mead, City Clerk RE: Legal Opinion of Bond Counsel Regarding Use of Councilmanic Bonds to Fund the City' s Share of the Green River Valley Flood Control Drainage Program and Benefit Accrual The questions raised at the Council meeting of June 15th were posed to Mr. Jim Gay, the city' s bond counsel: May the city issue councilmanic bonds to fund the City' s portion of the drainage program and is it necessary that the benefit accrue to the entire city. Mr. Gay opines that the city may use councilmanic bonds within the legal limit of its bonding capacity (3/4 of 1% of property valuation) and that it can be of benefit to a specific area. He adds that this is not a legal question but a political decision whether or not the city decides to utilize its indebted- ness capacity for such purpose. Renton City Council 4/27/81 Page 5 Administrative Report - Continued Park Use the proposed County Park Bond issue. The Mayor reported agree- Continued ment to pursue joint ventures whether or not the bond issue succeeded, which is in keeping with previously stated Council policy. Green River Mayor Shinpoch reported the Green River Basin Executive Committee Basin met at the Fire Station to hear Soil Conservation Service update on Federal participation in the proposed P-1 Channel . A 10% cut in overall funds is expected and if action is not forthcoming by local government by 10/1/81 , the project will end. The Valley Mayors and King County Councilman Grant serve on the Committee which is soliciting opinions from their Councils about the accep- tability of a funding package. At least two points of view exist with regard to who pays. . The people on the surrounding hills and those jurisdictions who have permitted building and thereby leave more and more impervious land, are adding greatly to the problem of flooding in the valley; or the people in the valley who have also been allowed to fill and build and may be in jeopardy from flooding. Previous discussions with the various Councils indicated that there was little support for a financial package that included the residences on the hillsides because of the difficulty of justi- fying the benefit to them. The valley dwellers do not cause the entire problem but will undoubtedly reap the benefit of a channel . A policy decision by the Council should be made by 6/1/81 and the Mayor noted support services would be provided as needed to assist in the decision: maps, speakers, County financial staff and/or City's own people who have served on the technical committee. Mayor Shinpoch explained possibility of flood plain district and drainage district; price tag of $62,000,000 of which $20,000,000 would be from Federal Funds and $42,000,000 the assessment district; $28,000,000 needed for acquisition of property to build the ditch. Following discussion it was determined meetings would be scheduled by the Administration. H.B. 749 Mayor Shinpoch reported H.B. 749 which permits local imposition of sales tax and a portion of all read estate sales transactions to be used by municipalities for.capital improvements has passed the House of Representatives and will be voted on in the Senate 4/28. AWC stated that approval will give the cities a new revenue source however, passage precludes the imposition of any "systems develop- ment" type charges for fire equipment or facilities, streets, parks or schools - permitting it only on utilities.

Next week's meetingis an effort to obtain comment from•the property • owners on the financing issue. King County has suggested that the three Valley cities contribute '$3.9 million in front money to get the project going.

ADMINISTRATIVE Mayor Shinpoch reported King County Executive Dunlap will be meet- REPORT ing one day a month with the Suburban Mayors; that his Assistant Dr. Broswell had met with them and advised: District Court filing fees will be raised 10° which will barely cover anticipated costs. Determination of when the County becomes responsible for suspected felon will be determined in friendly court suit; County will not bill cities until decision made and will be retroactive. A new formula will be used for jail and medical costs for prisioners which will be prorated on number of days and population of cities with no charge for prisioners held six hours or less. Preliminary County budget will be available in mid-October. King County Executive Dunlap was adamant that 911 bill was out of line upon comparison with other areas (Florida and California) and Northwest Bell has lowered costs; that if proposed E-911 voted upon, figures will be understandable by "man in the street." 4j189"O11f, � N f VPS May 6, 1981 ..ry p°� • 13239 N.E. 100th �N t ��k Kirkland, WA 98033 ��® tom ,z) 9 Renton City Council 92,cek £76 200 Mill Ave So. Renton, WA 98055 Dear Mr. Stredicke and Council Members, We have been very appreciative of ttia way the City of Renton has been looking at ways to save open space. The new wetlands study is a prime example of this sort of thing. We submitted to you several months ago, another proposal to preserve wetlands as part of the valley drainage plan. These included the Black River Forest, the marshes east and west of Lind Ave south of the Boeing Co. Valley Office Park and the expanded marsh owned by the City. We say expanded because additional property needs to be added to the 20 acres in order to make this a valuablemarsh for wildlife. Our current problem is the fact that the property directly South of the Boeing Co V.O.P. and west of Lind Ave has been granted a fill permit. This marsh is very valuable in the valley because of the dead trees and variety of vegetation in addition to fish in the water. We have spoken with Mr. Bennett, the owner, and asked that filling be halted in order to give us time to convince the City of Renton-=to-:titke action. The wetland policy is a way from being considered, let alone adopted. In the meantime, filling goes on and once filled, the option to save it has gone. If these areas are to be saved, then a decision has to be reached now and action taken to preserve them. The cost to preserve them could be shared on a county-wide program as part of their wetland study. They could also be made part of the valley drainage plan and part of the mitigation for development. A local bond issue could be passed with a tai- of 10-20 dollar a year per household over five years to buy development rights or share cost with the developer for not developing. In any event, something positive must be done now or these areas will be destroyed by this fall of 1981 . Thank you for considering this issue.

Metro Industrial District opposes this change, as its adoption will cause the loss of the use of 30.8 acres of its industrial-office land. Metro believes it is also in the interest of the City of Ren- ton to maintain the original alignment. Therefore when this action is considered by the City Council of Renton, we hope the Council will weigh the following and decide in favor of the retention of the original P-1 Channel alignment. In August, 1966, Congress adopted a flood control plan for this area which identified an alignment of the (major) P-1 Channel that has not been changed in the subsequent 13 years. In 1973, the City Coun- cil of Renton officially adopted this alignment, and the Green River Valley Comprehensive Plan prepared by the City of Renton Planning Department in February, 1975 includes this alignment as one of its parameters. On the basis of this identification, which has been consistently promulgated by the City of Renton for the past decade or more, property owners in this area have recognized the need to reserve land for this channel and have made their plans accordingly. We, as owners of property affected, have always made our plans for Metro Industrial District to be consistant with the long-established location of the P-1 Channel . We have made considerable investments based upon this established policy of the City of Renton. Most re- cently, Metro has committed itself to a large investment in Raymond Avenue in order to bring access to the 30.8 acre parcel in question. rr� <) tt, Mayor and City Council of Renton November 30, 1979 Page Two As must be apparent by recent developments in the area, including the large Boeing complex being built, the 30.8 acre parcel is now approaching the point where similar development can take place on it, and similar or greater values can be created. However, the proposed relocation of the P-1 Channel will abort all our plans for the land because the channel (Alternative 4) will cut through the middle of. the 30 acres and will make both sides virtually valueless for economically feasible development. Changing the current alignment to the proposed Alternative 4 loca- tion has the following adverse effects, among others: 1) As seen on the enclosed sketch, the lengthof the P-1 Channel is increased by over 1 ,000 feet; 2) It is our understanding that rip-rap will be required by the narrower Alternative 4 Channel and this may add as much as $3,000,000 to the cost of this alternative (which cost was appar- ently not considered in the Green River Valley Executive Com- mittee study) ; 3) The existing alignment has least conflict with existing roads; 4) The existing alignment with slower channel velocities has fewer safety hazards; 5) The Alternative 4 solution with more ponds and stagnant water has highest potential for insect breeding; 6) Alternative 4 has considerably greater right-of-way acquisition cost implication (not considered in the study) because this al- ternative results in a loss in value of the total 30 acre parcel which, with the current alignment, has industrial and office development potential ; and 7) The original alignment has significantly greater potential for City of Renton real estate tax revenue, considering the probable value of land and improvements in industrial-office use on the 30 acre site. The market value could exceed $20,000,000 to $30,000,000, which is considerably greater than the value of land and improvements if Alternative 4 is chosen and the land is left for recreation use (e.g. Long Acres) . Mayor and City Council of Renton November 30, 1979 Page Three For the above reasons and others, Metro Industrial District suggests Renton maintain its policy with respect to the long-established channel alignment and that Renton make such recommendation to the Green River Basin Executive Committee. Thirteen years of identification of the original P-1 Channel and the vast amount of planning by the City of Renton, land owners in the area and others should not be overturned by a hurriedly considered decision, that did not amply consider all the facts accumulated over the previous 13 years.

J. .- k' ,4Green River Basin Program .x iTi _a L November 30, 1979 City Councils Green River Valley Cities Re: East Side Watershed Project Dear City Council Member: The Green River Basin Executive Committee (BEC) has completed its review of channel and storage design modifications to the East Side Green River Watershed Project conducted by the firm of Brown and Caldwell . The study analyzed four design options for the P-1 drainage channel , including the wide channel plan proposed by the Soil Conservation Service (SCS) . At the October meeting the BEC approved modifications which reduce the channel width by approximately 100 feet in that portion north of S.W. 43rd Street and incorporate flood storage in two major detention ponds. There now appears to be greater potential for incorporating recreation and wildlife enhancement features into the project design. We believe these modifications positively respond to many of the long-standing public concerns about the project. The BEC has formally recommended these modifications to the SCS and has requested the Service give immediate priority to initiating engineering design work. Meetings with the SCS are currently in progress to resolve any remaining issues with the intent of establishing the summer of 1980 as a goal for the first phase of construction. In the very near future, project sponsors will be asked to reaffirm their intent to support the project in the form of a work plan agreement, which will identify responsibilities of both the sponsors and the SCS. Approval of the agreement by all sponsors will allow the SCS to proceed with design activities and thereby make tangible progress toward our construction goal . As you will remember, con- struction on East Side will also reactivate SCS planning assistance on the West Side (Mill Creek Basin) project as was agreed in the October 1978 letter . between the Basin Committee and State Conservationist. Local sponsors need not commit any local funds at this point, but will be asked at a later date to enter into a project agreement which will set forth in detail required financial arrangements. The Basin Executive Committee will be analyzing various means to finance the local share portion and we will report to you regularly on that important matter. King County Auburn Kent Renton Tukwila K.C.Conservation District City Councils Green River Valley Cities November 30, 1979 Page Two The project is now entering an important and very critical stage. Decisions to be made over the next few. months will bear heavily on whether the project can be successfully implemented. It is essential that our local land use decisions continue to be consistent with project plans and that designated rights-of-way and temporary construction areas be reserved for the project. I urge you to direct your planning staffs to provide such assurances in their review of development proposals and include them in their recommendations for your action. I am confident that we now have a project that will provide a wide range of benefits for the entire community and urge your support for upcoming decisions on the East Side Watershed Project. In the near future, your Basin Technical Committee representative will report further on the project and provide details on the necessary actions that must be taken. I look forward to early action in this matter as a continued show of sponsor support. Further inquiries can be directed to your Technical Committee representative or the King County Resource Planning Section (344-7990) .

Brown, State Conservationist '^�=^ USDA - Soil Conservationist Room 360 U. S. Courthouse Spokane, Washington 99201 Dear Mr. Brown: The Green River Basin Executive Committee (BEC) has reviewed the July 1978 Revised Watershed Plan developed under authority of Public Law 566 for the East Side Green River Watershed, King County, Washington. The sponsors concur in the basic provisions of this plan, as also reflected in the June 1979 Final Environmental Impact Statement, with the following exception. The proposed works of improvement for the P-1 channel from 180th Street to the P-1 pump plant use the alternative design configuration and be installed as presented conceptually in Alternative 4 of the October 2, 1979 Brown and Caldwell -r: studies. See Attachment A. This alternative has been reviewed by the Green River Basin Technical Advisory Committee and the Basin Executive Committee. Appropriate and careful consideration has been given to the environmental aspects thereof, and a determination made that this alternative is preferred environmentally and has greatest local acceptance. As project sponsors, the undersigned parties herein concur in all provisions of the July 1978 revised watershed plan and agree to become signatories of saidplan when written confirmation is g provided by the Soil Conservation Service that the exception described above concep- tually as Alternative 4 of Brown and Caldwell , is acceptable. 77^k. Furthermore, the undersigned parties hereby reconfirm their intent to proceed immediately with the sponsor actions necessary to carry out local responsibilities for landrights, relocation, permits, mitigations, etc. , as defined in the revised plan.

This is described conceptually as Alter- native 4 in the October 1979 Brown and Caldwell studies. I find these proposed modifications to the July 1978 Revised Watershed Plan to be acceptable. We will accommodate this design change within the limits of Federal , State, and local regulations, giving due consider- ation to technical and environmental requirements. I encourage the project sponsors to proceed with local actions needed to assure implementation. Inaction and delays in construction are being given greater scrutiny for deauthorization of funding. We must expedite implementation of the East Side Green River Watershed Project. Sincerely, LYNN A.

In March of 1977 the Valley mayors and King County offi - cials met to consider the Soil Conservation Service ' s Green River Watershed projects . The purpose of the meet- ing was to determine if the Soil Conservation .Service project could be moved ahead and steps taken to resolve the problem of drainage and flood control in the Valley . Subsequently, a technical committee of the Valley Planning Directors and County staff was formed . The technical com- mittee was directed to draft an interlocal agreement and work ,program to address the total drainage problem. An initial interlocal agreement was prepared and received final approval by King County and the Valley cities in October, 1977. Said agreement defined the need for col - lective formulation of an interim policy and regulatory — plan and a work program, which was to be drafted for con- sideration by the Valley cities and King County . At a recent meeting with the King County Executive , the Valley mayors reviewed the proposed interim policy and regulatory plan and a preliminary draft of a new inter- local agreement designed to effectuate said program. The — _�___ ----Ex-ecu-t-i ve Summary attached outlines the background on the various actions to date and further defines proposed future actions that will be ,required . Included is the formulation of a policy advisory committee consisting of key elective officials from the Valley cities and King County, who will further address the matter of the interim policy and basin-wide management program. Earl Clymer, President Members of the City Council March 9, 1978 Page Two In order to expedite consideration of the proposed agree- ment and program, it is requested that this matter be referred to the Council committee-of-the-whole and to the Community Services Committee in view of that committee ' s previous study of the drainage question .

From: The Green River Technical Committee Subject: Executive Summary: Green River Valley Interim Policy and Regulatory Plan and Basin Wide Management Program. The Green River Technical_ Committee- is pleased--to forward• this report entitled "Green River Basin Program" for review by the King County Council and Executive and by the mayors and city councils of the four valley cities. The report is a result of work accomplished by the Technical Committee through February of 1978.. Part One describes interim surface water problems •and issues in the lower Green . River Valley. Part Two outlines the approach in formulating and carrying out the program. Part Three proposes:a detailed work program to formulate the Valley Interim Policy and Regulatory Plan, thus satisfying the intent — of the interlocal agreement ratified by the County and Valley cities in October, 1977. A new interlocal agreement is attached which, when adeptddq will carry out that interim .work program, as well as selected "early action" measures. Part Four of the report summarizes the elements of a Basin Wide Surface Water Management Program designed to bring about effective water resource management over the entire Green River Basin. The program proposes that federal programs and projects, state plans and the activities of local governments be coordinated in a manner which maximizes regional water resource benefits and ties them to a comprehensive surface water management program. The plan also calls for a stronger role for local governments in their relationship with federal and state agencies in the design of flood control . systems and formulation . of surface water policies and regulations throughout the basin. - Background ..- - On March 1, 1977, Valley Mayors and King County officials met with representatives of the Department of Housing and Urban Development, the . Department of Ecology, the Corps of Engineers and Soil Conservation. Service. Topics of discussion included the SCS Watershed Projects, portions of which have recently modified or suspended, revised Federal Flood Insurance regulations governing flood proofing, the issuance of flood control permits in State Flood Control Zone 2 and the effect of continued encroachment on the valley floodplain by landfill and • development before federal flood control projects were implemented. The ultimate purpose of the meeting was to discuss the formulation of a set of unified and equitable regulatory policies governing the issuance of development and flood control permits in the lower Green River Valley. At a subsequent meeting it was decided that the Valley Planning Directors or their designees and County staff would meet and draft an interlocal • 1 • • • agreement through which the County and Valley cities would cooperatively seek an approach for creating an interim policy and regulatory plan. That interlocal agreement received final ratification by the County and Valley cities in October of 1977. In it, the County and valley cities agreed to ". . .the need to collectively formulate an interim policy and regulatory plan for the purposes of governing new development and mitigating the adverse impacts of existing and future flooding in the lower Green River Watershed which are likely to occur before federal flood control projects are implemented." They further agreed that ". . . a necessary first•step in formulating said interim policy and regulatory plan - _ is to develop a work program which- establishes the scope of- study', individuals and/or staff necessary to formulate the policy and plan, anticipated costs, how the study will be fundedand a timetablefor completion and presentation of said policy and plan to their governing bodies." A technical committee (now. the Green River Technical Committee) was designated to develop the work program. The Technical Committee is currently composed of King . County Resource Planning Section staff, the Planning Directors of Kent, Renton and Tukwila and-the _ • Assistant City Engineer from the City of Auburn. - • • The Report The draft of that work program was completed in January of 1978 and is attached for review by the sponsoring jurisdictions. Final review and editing of the report are continuing. The work program recognizes that the acceptability of provisional policies and regulations rests on the explicit understanding that what is "interim" must and will be ultimately replaced by a longer-term and equally viable process for basin-wide surface water management. The 'attached report, therefore, also includes a summary description of the elements of a Basin Wide Surface Water Management Plan and its relationship to the Valley Interim Policy and. Regulatory Plan and "early action" measures. In total, the report proposes three distinct components of the Green River Basin Program_ Interlocal Agreement and 'Early Action The initial component is ratification of the attached Interlocal Agreement through which King County and the cities of Auburn, Kent, Renton and Tukwila will agree to carry out the work program for the Valley Interim Policy and Regulatory Plan and enact specifically several "early action" measures designed to immediately address surface water problems in the Valley. The agreement calls for the sponsors to accomplish the following: * Establish the collective sponsorship of the County and valley cities in carrying out the Interim work program and bear full responsibility for its costs. • * Establish a Policy Advisory Committee (PAC) composed of elected officials from the sponsoring jurisdictions to provide direct and continuing supervision of the development of the • 2 SID Interim Plan as well as coordination, at the political level, of the work conducted by the Corps of Engineers, Soil Conservation Service, State of Washington or any other agency whose activities affect surface water management in the Green River Basin. * Expand the Green River Technical Committee to include both planning and public works officials from the sponsoring jurisdictions. With staff assistance from the County and valley __ cities, the Technical Committee will carry out the Interim-Work _ _._—_ _ Program. * Identify individuals or groups who could serve on the Citizens Advisory Committee(s) identified in the work program. * Agree to consider, within 60 days, the adoption of a surface water runoff and drainage ordinance or review of existing drainage ordinances consistent with the SNOMET model urban-.--- drainage ordinance (Appendix '1). * Agree to consider, within 120 days a) . the adoption of an ordinance which identifies and designates a regulatory floodways within HUD designated special flood hazard areas consistent with regulations of the National Flood Insurance Program (Appendix 2) and, b) the adoption . of necessary ordinances and floodplan management provisions which meet the minimum requirements of HUD flood insurance regulations and are consistent with the HUD Model Flood Damage Prevention Ordinance (Appendix 3). * Agree to consider, within '120 days of, the adoption of the Interlocal Agreement, the adoption of a motion/resolution to determine guidelines for a) identifying critical drainage areas and b) applicable development controls in those areas (Appendix 4). • Recognize the relationship between interim policy and regulatory controls and a basinwide management program which coordinates decision-making on plans, programs and projects which affect the water resources. of the Green River Basin, and agree to consider within 120 days of the adoption of the interlocal agreement, the approval of recommendations and local actions regarding federal flood control projects and other elements of the Basin Wide Surface Water Managemnt Program identified as Part Four of Exhibit A. As the work program for Interim and Basin-Wide Measures evolved, it became apparent to members of the Technical Committee that, even while the Interim Plan was being formulated, there would be a need for a ' uniform set of measures which could be enacted immediately to deal with surface water problems. The ordinances proposed for adoption under the attached interlocal agreement constitute that "early action" program. 3 4111 • They are intended not as a substitute for, but as an integral part of both the Interim and Basin-Wide programs. Yet, like the Interim program, it contains features which are capable of being revised or superceded as long term federal or local programs and other interim measures are implemented. Valley Interim Policy and Regulatory Plan The second component of the overall Green River Basin Program is the formulation of the Valley Interim Policy and Regulatory Plan. The--work - ----- --- program for the Interim Plan, discussed in Part Three, is divided into three elements, each corresponding to a different level of policy, decision-making or required technical expertise. The first element is Technical Assistance and Support and is intended to provide assistance at both the valley-wide and local levels of policy and serve as the technical basis for formulation of "early action" measures and the Interim Plan. Areas of investigation will include engineering, financing and environmental assessment and will be conducted primarily by the County or consultants. The second element, Valley Interim Policy Development, will provide the overall direction and guidance for formulation of the Interim Plan through the Green River Technical Committee and Policy Advisory Committee. The Technical Committee will review the results of the technical analysis and, with review and approval by the Policy Advisory Committee, will make recommendations on the ultimate content of the Interim Plan to the valley cities. The third element is Local Policy and Regulations Development and is the level at which actual implementation of "early action" measures and the Valley Interim Policy and Regulatory Plan will occur. The valley cities will provide the lead in this element, assisting in providing technical information, conducting staff and public reviews of -the alternative and recommended actions, and finally, enacting regulations and ordinances which will actually implement "early action" measures and the Interim Plan. Development of the Valley Interim Policy and Regulatory Plan will be the collective responsibility of King County and the cities of Auburn, Kent, Renton and Tukwila. King County's role will include providing technical assistance and support to the Policy Advisory Committee and Technical Committee, overall study management as chairman of the Policy Advisory Committee and coordination of plan formulation with the projects and programs of other federal, state or regional agencies. The valley cities' primary role will be the ongoing review of proposed actions as they are developed and their implementation through enactment of specific regulations and ordinances. • 4 40) ' 4 • Basin Wide Surface Water Management Program The third component of the Green River Basin Program contends that the viability of the Valley Interim Policy and Regulatory Plan rests on the foundation that it is truly interim and that it will be replaced by a long- term Basin Wide Surface Water Management Program. The interim planning process will be followed or accompanied by studies required for basin-wide decision-making on suhface water management. The basin- wide work program will, therefore, have two essential features: first, _:__.___ elements of the program undertaken during or upon-completion of the ----- Interim Interim study period will be ongoing - that is, applicable over the long term and at a basin wide level; second, the program for basinwide management will contain opportunities to revise or phase out early action and interim measures as federal projects and programs are completed. Part Four of this report discusses issues and the necessary responses to them which will form the - basis . for the Basin. Wide Surface Wa,ter Management Program. There are a variety of projects and programs ,- currently being undertaken in the Green River Basin, most of which are not related to each other or to an overall management program. The basin-wide approach proposes to coordinate the diverse activities of• federal, state and local agencies through a single, comprehensive surface water management program. The ten elements of the Basin Wide Surface Water Management Program include: Element 1 - Howard Hanson Dam Investigation: To determine the feasibility of modifying the operation of the dam in in order to provide additional outlet downstream for interior drainage. Element 2 - East Side Green River Watershed Project: To identify unresolved draft EIS issues, coordinate reviews of the draft EIS, Supplemental Work Plan and • Supplemental Agreement, among local sponsors, and develop a plan, for financing, managing and operating the completed project. Element 3 - West Side Green. River Watershed Project: To initiate requests to the SCS for reauthorization and reformulation of the project, assist the SCS in developing the Work Plan, Work Plan Agreement and EIS, review the effects of other basin-wide elements on the project, and develop a plan for financing, managing and operating the project. • Element 4 - Corps of Engineers Levee Feasibility Study: To coordinate the Corps study with other program elements, particularly the Green River and Environs . Study, investigate the feasibility of joint Corps/SCS programs in the basin, assist the Corps with local reviews of the study report and EIS and develop- a • plan for local implementation. • 5 • Se 4110) Element 5 - Green River and Environs Study: To identify significant recreational opportunities along the river, coordinate study recommendations with the Corps • levee improvement project and develop a local program or implementation . Element. 6 - Section 73, Investigation: To investigate the feasibility of , applying Section 73 of the Water Resource Development Act of 1974 which provides for the funding of non-structural flood control. solutions_ ___ ________ to the operation of. Hanson Dam, reformulation of the West Side Watershed Project, Corps levee improvement program and local floodplain management programs. • Element 7 - Land Assemblage Program: To develop a ,comprehensive program for meeting local obligations of federal and 'related projects including -mechanisms for land acquisition relocation financing and management. Element 8 - Sub Basin Surface Water Management Programs: To develop surface water management programs for the upper sub-basins which stabilize river flows, compliment other basins programs structural flood • control projects and the community or comprehensive planning process and utilize proven existing technical tools. Element 9 - Water Rights and Water Supply: To coordinate with and assist the Department of Ecology in the development of the State Water Resource Management Program in the Green River Basin, review interbasin transfers of water, relate to water supply issues in adjacent . basins, preserve fisheries, recreation and water quality requirements, and develop incentives for water conservation. . Element 10 - Water Quality: To insure that implementation of the Metro 208 Water Quality Plan becomes an integral part of the Basin Wide Surface Water Management Program, minimize duplicative inventory and data gathering activities, inform and educate local officials and the public on the importance of combining water quantity and quality programs and coordinate flood control projects with the operation of Metro's Renton Sewage Treatment Plant. The Valley Interim Policy and Regulatory Plan and Basin-Wide Surface ' Water Management Program represents a decision-making process that links both immediate and long term surface water management and planning needs in the Green River basin. The numerous federal, state, - 6 41/9 regional and local agencies with authority over surface water and the multitude of projects, plans, regulations and ordinances they administer must be coordinated within that process. The work of the Green River Technical Committee over the past several months indicates that this king of cooperative approach to surface water problems can be achieved with the proper level of commitment from local jurisdictions. The end result can be a program for surface water management in the Green River basin based on a reasonable regulatory framework and responsive to the changing needs of its participants. • • • • • 7 r. . . • AGREEMENT THIS AGREEMENT is entered into by and between KING COUNTY (hereinafter referred to as "County" ) , THE CITY OF AUBURN, a municipal corporation of the State of Washington (hereinafter referred to as ."Auburn" ) , THE CITY OF KENT, a municipal corporation of the State of Washington (hereinafter • referred to as "Kent" ), THE CITY OF RENTON, a municipal corporation of the State of Washington hereinafter referred to as "Renton" ) , and the CITY OF TUKWILA, a municipal • corporation of the State of Washington (hereinafter referred to as "Tu .

Until an acceptable basin eventually finds its way into flood control solution in the valley is the river and flows through the valley found and built,those seeking to develop on the way to Puget Sound.

For the last decade, Landfill Under Project Conditions landfill for new development has been permitted to an elevation which assumed that federal flood control projects were already built. That elevation, in many areas, is much lower than the level of floodwaters under existing conditions.

' cessive brick is added, the shape of the Floodplain Encroachment puddle changes and/or increases in depth. In the flood plain, buildings pre- viously protected or even outside the flood plain may become subject to flood- : ing and damages. The Development Process and the Applicant There are various stages at which applicants begin the development process in the valley,depending on whether they are seeking rezone, grading and fill permit,sub- division, planned unit development or,building permit. Wherever the applicant begins,,he should be aware of the potential flood hazards on his property and the effect its development might have on adjacent properties. Knowledge of those hazards and the measures'which will be required bylocal government to guard against them may affect the applicant' final decision to develop in the valley. The following is a checklist of factors relating to surface water regulations with which the applicant should be familiarwhen beginning any development process in the Green River Valley: •• Determine if the property lies within a designated flood hazard area or flood plain. These areas are designated by the Federal Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). The best source of this information is the planning or building department of the jurisdiction in which the property is located. They will be able to locate the property on their map of the 100-year flood plain or Flood Hazard Boundary Map. The 100-year flood is the basis for federal regulations and flood control project design. • If the property is in the flood plain, determine the elevation of the 100-year flood at that point. Preliminary elevations have been dietermined by the Soil Conservation Service and are being refined by HUD in their Flood Insurance Program. If the local planning or building department can't supply that information, the King County Division of Hydraulics should be contacted. Knowing the heights of flood waters under 100-year conditions will give the applicant an idea of the amount of flood-proofing which will be required to protect the property. and buildings. 1 • Reserving land for future flood control improvements. Proposed rights-of-way for SCS (Watershed Project channels cross many } properties throughout the valley. Ih granting State Flood Control Permits (see below), the Department of Ecology often requires developers to'reserve those rights-of-way. The applicant should contact the King County Division of Hydraulics for their location. • Local requirements for surface water retention. Applicants should familiarize themselves with local regulations for surface water retention which may be required in developing their property. Two jurisdictions in the valley, Renton land King County, have enacted surface water ordinances requiring the-submittal of drainage plans and construction of facilities for the retention of surface water.Other cities may require a portion of developing properties to be set aside for those facilities. Applicants should $ contact the local planning or building department for information on these requirements. • State Flood Control Permit. In the valley, any new development within State Flood Control Zone No. 2- Green River requires a State Flood Control Permit. This permit allows the state to review and regulate new construction in flood-prone areas so that potential flood damages can be prevented. The local planning or building } department will tell the applicant if a permit is required.The State Department of Ecology usually issues the permit after review by the King County Division of Hydraulics, except in unincorporated King County, where the permit is issued directly by the Division. ,� I 1 I r • Flood Insurance Regulations. , The National,FloOd Insurance Program, administered by HUD, makes sub- sidized flood insurance:available to properties in designated flood hazard , areas. In"return,local governments participating in the program are required to'' V ' adopt and enforce measures that will guide development in flood-prone - areas to avoidor reduce future flood damages. At the local level, those G measures consist of zoning, grading,.fill,'and other development regula- . i tions. The provision of the Flood Insurance Program which most affects the - applicant is that which requires new development to be flood-proofed to or above the existing 100year flood elevation until more progress is made On federal projects. Both local development permits and State Flood Control Permits will.rely on that regulation if proposed development lies in a flood ,.prone area. HUD is continuing its study of flood hazard areas in the valley.. When their-study is complete, regulations on new development in i 'flood hazard areas may be enacted: , , • Water Quality Regulations. - The Water Pollution.Control Act of,1972 makes it illegal for certain types of municipal;industrial,and agricultural uses to let pollutants escape into surface , waters without a discharge permit. Pollutants may include sewage, farm waste, industrial chemicals, or runoff from parking lots containing oil and • gasoline.The permit will either require measures to beinstalled immediately or will set a time schedule that the applicant must follow in reducing pollutant discharges. The Environmental Protection Agency administers the law at the federal level. At the local level, the State Department of Ecology reviews and issues discharge permits. • King County Agricultural Protection Program. The County's program to protect agricultural lands is an additional considera- tion in the development process i{the valley. Many undeveloped properties in the valley are agricultural lands in flood-prone areas. Ifthe applicant's property lies within the Lower G jeep River Valley Agricultural District, the County will review development permit applications for their impact on agricultural lands. If the property is within the Agricultural District and designated as Agricultural Lands of County Significance, more stringent regulations will apply. The applicant should contact the King County Office of Agriculture for further information. . Current Planning Activities King County and cities of Auburn,Kent,Renton,and Tukwila are now cooperatively working on solutions to surface waterjproblems in the Green River Valley. During the next year, the immediate problemjof the impact of new development on flooding and drainage in the valley will be examined.The participants hope to create guide- lines under which new development can proceed while minimizing additional surface water problems. This will be thefirst step in an overall surface water management program for the entire Green River Basin. King County and the valley cities are exploring ways in which their immediate and long-term surface water planning activities in the Green River Basin can be coordinated with ongoing federal flood control projects. This will include contin- uing assistance to the Soil Conservation Service in implementing the East Side Watershed Project, and formulation of';a recreation,plan as the basis for the Corps of Engineers' levee improvement project on the Green River.

There arc four probable displacements involved in this project. On the P-1 channel atestation 169+00 there arc two domiciles that • may involve relocations. Estimated cost of relocating these families is $10,000. At station 348+00 a family may be displaced at an expected . cost of $5,000. On the P-2 channel ati station 269+50 a family may be displaced , at an expected relocation cost of $5,000. 1 . It is estimated that the cost of relocating the affected families will total $20,000. This cost will be shared by the Service and the Sponsoring Local Organizations on the ratio of PL-566 funds to other funds in total project cost. This ratio is 30 percent Local and 70 per- cent PL-566, The Service will provide up to the first $25,000 for each displacement occurring prior to July 1 , 1972. The Sponsoring Local : Organizations will provide relocation advis- ory services Without PL-566 cost sharing.. The services to be provided by the Sponsoring Local Organizations are prescribed. under Public Law 91-646 (84 Stat. l894) . Services to be performed •by the Sponsoring Local Organizations consist of acquainting the to-be-displaced persons of their rights under the Act and to assist these persons in finding decent, sanitary and safe housing. The cost of this service is esti- mated to be $4,000. Thisiserviceis to be performed by King County without PL-566 cost sharing. The sponsors have determined. that decent, safe and sanitary housing ;is available for all persons subject to dis- . placement by the project, iand that displaced persons will be given notice to vacate at least190 days before they have to move. King County, a sponsor, will (1) provide personally or by first class mail , written notice of displacement and appropriate application . forms to each displaced person,. (2) assist in filing applications , (3) review.and take action on applications for relocation assistance, (4) review and process grievances in connection with displacements ,' and (5) make relocation payments. The Service will assist the speci- fied sponsor in fulfilling these responsibilities. King County, as coordinating sponsor, will arrange for r an specific sponsor to finance the sponsors share of relocation payecf cost of relocation advisory services for those relocations occurring within that sponsors area of jurisdiction. Such payments will be from funds legally available and appropriated for this purpose. . 1 There will be little or no economic effect from the small number of displacements due to this project. Because of ambiguity in the plan, it is agreed that the last sentence of the last paragraph on page 27 of the Work Plan be changed to read as follows: This has been recognized by estimates of construction and cost, shown in Tables 1 and 2, which contain contingency allowances to. compensate for possible latent conditions." In accordance with "requests from the sponsoring organizations the Service will perform the ;administration of remaining contracts. All references related to Installation Services and Administration • of Contracts on page 33 and elsewhere shall be changed to consider engineering services and project administration. PL-566 costs are estimated as EngineeringiServices $730, 100 and Project Administration $991 ,750.

This program must be developed if the Green River Valley - is to develop to its ultimate. One of the requirements is that King County and the four municipalities buy 110 acres of soil here in the Valley and leave•, it :untouched so that it can remain as a wetland for waterfowlto:move in and migrate. This is not a project for Tukwila, Kent, Auburn or Renton to go separately on their own ways, and when we talk about 110 acres of property for wetlands, it is going to_ cost money, but by ail of the jurisdictions working together, P thiscan be accomplished, So; that each of the cities can carry out the programs that have- been laid out by your 'Planning Departments and other officials.. Councilman Mooney introduced Mr. Brad Gillespie of the King, County'.Public: Works; Department to give the audience a little of the historical background•of-.the project. tiHISTORY OF GREEN :. Mr Gillespie explained that what the sponsors, King County, the cities, RIVER VALLEY and King County Soil Conservation District agreed to in 1960 has changed DRAINAGE PROJECT considerably due to the emphasis on environmental protection. There are some new requirements 'that must be met if the Soil Conservation Ser- 'vice .and ,the'Federal'Government are to continue in their efforts to com- pletethe project for the Valley. : Mr. Gillespie requested Mr. George Wannamaker, King County Department of.Public Works , togive some of the background:: :.•With the:::=aid of, a ;map..of• the drainage system and pump- ,', ing stations .in the Valley Mr. Wannamaker pointed out the various channels and pumping stations and:gave., a thumbnail sketch of the history of the`project:;: ;Back; in ;late .1959-196.0 when the local residents, primarily farmers• in the;;valley,' began to.realize that a drainage projectwas feasible for the Valley, Howard Hansen Dam was under construction and it wouldn't be long until the flow in the Green River Channel would be. controlled;' so an application for;,funds was: made Under Public Law No: '566:to go' along: with the drainage problem. ' ;'The County,:along with the four valley cit"ies', ; - and the;.King County Soil Conservation District sponsored. this pr'ogram. , through -the Soil ConservationService, and a little further along, we had the -birth 'of.the -Green River Flood,Control Zone District, which also'':. became one of the'sponsors:`;' ;'The application- was made 'and approved''through the S::C:S., and in "th& ;early:`;1960's,, they did the planning and .development of the project In"".-:late 1965 and:early 1966, the' sponsors signed the plan:" and it went to Congress and was approved..

Mr..,,Mooney replied that they would not like the land in one parcel and emphasized that these parcels of land were still only tentative and subject: to change, however, the Environmental people must be given consideration as to the best approach for the preservation of wildlife throughout the area. It was sugge,stedthat.,a Work Group of the Councilmen for each of the Cities 'and Councilman Mooney, and whatever technical help was needed for, the deliberations,',possibly.have two or three meetings before the Supplement to the Work .Plan' is presented to the Councils for final action. Mayor 'Garrett remarked that if that was what was wanted, and since there was representatives of all the groups there, that each .one ' of the jurisdictions could designate one member of their Councils, or one of their standing committees :to work on the problem. In ensuing discussion, Councilman .Stredicke asked what would happen if one of the participating agencies, voted against the program. A representative of the Soil ,Conservation Service said that the S.C.S. would not then be ina position to,commit`.'any' money to go further with the project, since all the Cities and' the County were responsible for the whole pro- ject, 'not just,the ',side they are located on. : SURVEY OF SITES Mrs:`Jean Masters, Councilwoman from Kent, asked if wouldn't be worth- while.:to take',a-survey and find out if they weren't already in possession of the 110 acres; :With all the puddles and streamsin the valley that can't be built on, ,and that was already conducive to wildlife. Councilman'Perry suggested that a Council Committee,' a Committee of all the Councils in `the Valley 'be formulatedto look into this land. The Mayorsuggested that Councilman Mooney ask each city involved tonotify him if they will agree to that and then set a date a few weeks away to , supply members. He asked Councilman Mooney if he would take the responsibility of aoordinating with the various agencies to set this up Mr.', Mooney accepted the responsibility,. " ':MANAGEMENT OF Councilman Stredicke remarked that in past hearings held on.this area, `., WILDLIFE HABITAT. . that "it had" been brought, up, that it 'doesn''t matter how•much land is set aside, unless''.you have management of that land, it is riot going do much good::,., Councilman Mooney stated that the State Department of. , Game had indicated interest in assuming: management of these wetlands ,,,.:: but ,he.'did 'not -know under;'what conditions they 'they'would, assume this.

The study recognized the need to carefully analyze the impact of how we obtain our water supply for residential and commercial purposes upon water quality and fish production as well as several other related environmental considerations: The study identified the following needs for water: 1) an additional 100 - 200 million gallons per day for residential and commercial uses by the year 2000. 2). additional water to help maintain water quality. (clean up our lakes and streams) 3) additional water to help maintain fish production. 4) water to maintain locks and prevent salt water intrusion. APPROACH OF STUDY The study developed eight alternative ways to meet our water needs. These different alternatives provided a range of benefits. Some only provided for additional water for residential and commercial uses. Others provided more water than we have now in the Cedar River for fish production while others also provided such benefits as additional waters for flushing of our lakes if found desirable, flood control and electrical power. These alternatives were refined and screened starting in June, 1973 and were presented to the public at community meetings. The eight alternatives were screened and four eliminated following community meetings in November. FINAL PLAN RECOMMENDATIONS The study team is recommending a final plan that they consider to provide the greatest benefits at the least costs and responds to citizen concerns about water resources. .mayf -Y. Multi-Purpose Plan Alternative This consists of a program for managing water resources that would incorporate a Cedar River earth fill dam, continuing local ground- water development, the possibility of a Cedar River to Lake Sammamish flushing line and a controllable weir that will regulate the amount of water entering the Sammamish River. This plan meets the projected need for residential and commercial water. It provides more water in June through November than is now provided to help maintain fish production. It provides adequate water for maintaining the level of Lake Washington and Chittenden Locks. It could provide for additional flushing water for Issaquah Creek, Lake Sammamish, the Sammamish River and the north end of Lake Washington, if found desirable. It also provides a high degree of flood control on the Cedar River as well as additional power generation. Capital costs are $46, 300, 000 and operation and maintenance costs -are $483, 000 annually and the cost per household would be an additional $4 . 90 on the water bill and $1. 60 on the sewer bill annually if authorized. The program outlines further detailed studies as needed and the critical decision points where management must commit or deviate from the program as new information dictates. FUTURE QUESTIONS The most important finding of the study is that we need to resolve the question of government management of our water resources. Legal authority to provide and finance a total water resource program is now fragmented. The question boils down to whether we want to continue with fragmented management or work out cooperative arrangements leading to more centralized management of our water resources. Such cooperative arrangements are necessary to implement comprehensive water resource management programs like the multi-purpose plan. WATER QUALITY MANAGEMENT PURPOSE AND PROBLEMS The Water Quality Management Study was initiated in response to State and Federal requirements for development of plans to protect and enhance water quality on a river basin basis. The study was authorized in 1971 when the Department of Ecology designated Metro and King County to be the planning agent for the Cedar-Lake Washington and Green-Duwamish River basins. Water quality problems were defined to be either existing or future conditions where water qulaity did not meet standards for a desired use. The study has identified these areas. APPROACH OF STUDY The water quality study was divided into several distinct problem areas'. These are: 1) sewage treatment 2) small lakes and streams 3) large lakes and rivers 4) non-point sources of pollution (such as urban runoff) 5) near shore waters and 6) the goal of zero discharge of pollutants into our waters. The study has accomplished research into all these areas. Much of the work has involved water quality sampling and research to identify sources of problem. Research on sewage treatment plants has been geared towards meeting Environmental Protection Agency requirements to analyze the most cost effective approach to sewage treatment. PRELIMINARY PLAN RECOMMENDATIONS It was found that water quality in the basins is generally good and within standards and criteria to provide adequate habitat for fish and other aquatic_ life, for water-based recreation, for water supply and for aesthetic uses. Existing or projected future conditions in some water bodies may be marginal for certain uses. These include Lake Sammamish which experiences blooms of algae during spring and summer months which may be a nuisance to some people. The temperature of the lower Green and lower Cedar and Sammamish in certain years of low stream flow increases to higher levels than desirable for trout and salmon. Overflows from combined sewers cause degradation of the Lake Union Ship Canal and Elliot Bay and the areas small lakes and streams need to be protected from excessive urban runoff. Recommendations of the water quality study include facility measures-- specific things to build and non-facility measures which include research studies, pilot programs, and regulations governing activities which affect water quality. It is recommended that treatment plants be improved and expanded at. 15 sites. No new sites would be utilized for the recommended configurations, although the plant at Mukilteo would be abandoned. A pilot program is recommended for testing the suitability of utilizing treated waste water for irrigating commercial forest lands rather than discharging such water into streams, lakes and Puget Sound. A pilot study is also recommended for testing a device for aerating lakes (such as Lake Sammamish) which is designed to inhibit the growth of algae. Intensified research and monitoring programs are recommended for Puget Sound and for Lake Washington to provide a sound basis for interpreting the impacts of constituents in urban runoff and waste water which are not removed by presently required treatment. These constituents, -including heavy metals' and pesticide residues, may be harmful to certain species of biota when present in significant quantities. Not enough is known now about these long-term effects on the aquatic ecology of the water bodies to permit formulation of a specific program for reduction of inflow of heavy metals and pesticides. The total pattern of circulation and mixing of fresh and salt waters . in the Sound is also significant in assessing impacts of pollutants. For reducing the waste load contained in urban runoff, measures might be implemented in conjunction with detention ponds for flood control. Settling, screening and aeration of floating materials can substantially reduce biochemical oxygen demand at detention ponds , though rather expensive. Such measures will help to maintain dissolved oxygen in small streams at needed levels. For toxic materials, control of sale and use is probably the only effective way to keep materials such as DDT out of the region' s waters. The research on small lakes will result in a handbook that will help local areas identify water quality problems and guide them to a proper solution. Suggestions as to financing methods will also be included. FUTURE QUESTIONS The problem of government management of water quality will be a serious one to face as we attempt to deal with the difficult water quality problems of the future. Future pollution will be from non-point sources, not from sewage and industries. The problem can • best be illustrated with the problem of financing. Should citizens pay for the clean up of our lakes on their sewer bills or by general property taxes? Who should be responsible for all water quality activities? How can local residents be given the assistance they need to start measures to rehabilitate local small lakes and streams? URBAN RUNOFF AND BASIN DRAINAGE PURPOSE AND PROBLEMS The purpose of the Urban Runoff and Basin Drainage Study is to consider how serious today' s stormwater runoff problems are, how they are inter-related on an area-wide basis, which are the most . pressing problems, and what alternatives are available for solving them. The study has identified the major existing urban drainage problems. In addition the study has identified future problem areas . Alternatives to these existing and future problems are now being analyzed for each of the 27 sub-basins identified and a final alternative for each sub-basin will be recommended. The study is also considering the regional aspect of drainage management. The lack of an adequate agency to manage drainage has been a big problem and many drainage problems have not been solved because of a lack of a clear mandate to act and an acceptable means . of financing. APPROACH OF STUDY The Green and Cedar River Basins have been divided into 27 sub-basins based on drainage areas. Data has been collected, including land use data. Two computer runs have been completed on each sub-basin. The first computer run tested how a conventional structural concept (eg. pipes) solved the problem. The second computer run tested how a non-structural concept (eg. holding ponds, flood plains) solved the problem. Preliminary recommendations will be based on the output of these computer runs. However, detailed and site specific planning will not be carried out by the RIBCO Urban Drainage Study. This must be done following more local citizen participation in the selection of the desired alternative with the local agency responsible for drainage. Results of the basin studies are available in appendix form at the Army Corps of Engineers, Metro, and at the main branches of the public library. Further ,information on these appendices is. available by calling the Corps' of Engineers (Walt Farrar, 442-5722) or Metro (Don Benson 284-5100) . DEMONSTRATION AREAS Five demonstration areas were selected to demonstrate the full capability of the computer models. These areas are May Creek, Mill Creek, Miller Creek, Thornton Creek and Kelsey Creek. More complete information on existing and future conditions allowed a more detailed study of these areas. PRINCIPAL FINDINGS AND .RECOMMENDATIONS Most of the recommendations to date relate to more effective :drainage management. The study has pointed out that in most sub- basins more than one government is responsible for managing drainage. An important study finding is that drainage systems must be designed on a drainage basin basis, and cannot be sucessfully developed along political jurisdictional boundaries. A first recommendation is that a regional approach be taken to drainage problems. This could take several forms including assigning total responsibility to one agency or appointing one agency in an overseer role to provide technical assistance and to help establish priorities. A second recommendation is that the utility approach be utilized to finance urban drainage. This involves charging each household and business on a monthly basis for the costs of managing drainage. Generally those properties which contribute more runoff would be charged a higher rate. FUTURE QUESTIONS Some of the questions that need to be addressed before the study is completed include: 1) Who will manage drainage? 2) Are we willing to pay for urban drainage management? 3) How will we pay for drainage management? • SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT PURPOSE AND PROBLEMS The charge of the Solid Waste Study is to develop a plan for the management of all aspects of solid waste in King County to the year 2000. Initial problems defined by the study were: management of the system so that it would be efficient and environmentally sound and development of an ultimate disposal system. Problems included fragmented management, increasing amounts of garbage, problems for Seattle in finding new landfill sites and some public opposition to landfill methods and public and government concerns about developing more environmentally sound methods of dealing with all our garbage. EXISTING SYSTEM Briefly, the existing solid waste management system for King County , consists of thirty three private collection companies picking up approximately 1. 2 million tons of refuse from residences, business and industries to be disposed of by three principal entities--two public and one private. While the city of Seattle faces exhaustion of its landfills by 1980 and the private operator has been told to cease its landfill operation because of adverse environmental and public policy impacts, King County landfill capacity exists for all the area' s wastes for approximately twenty years and no major crises are foreseen in the many other elements of the solid waste management system. The challenge then is to refine the management of the existing system, reducing duplication, fragmentation, adverse environmental effects and uniformly implementing public policy, such as resource recovery into any disposal methods used in the coming years. APPROACH OF STUDY The study has projected future amounts of garbage that will be disposed of and identified many of the management problems involved in collection, storage and transfer. Much of the study has focused on an in depth analysis of ten disposal systems. These systems include: anaerobic digestion, composting, incineration with power recovery, ocean disposal , pyrolysis with resource recovery, rail haul, recycle center, regional sanitary landfill, sanitary landfill with baled wastes, and sanitary landfill with shredded wastes. These systems were presented to the public for comments. 1 PRELIMINARY RECOMMENDATIONS The plan recommendations include: _ 1) the use of sanitary landfill, with shredding (which allows metals to be recovered) , as an interim measure until a resource recovery system such as electrical power generation by incineration can be developed (this system could be operational within 5 to 10 years) ; 2) encouragement of voluntary recycling efforts and voluntary home separat:ion of garha je; 3) mandatory collection in urbanized areas : 4) standardized levels of service; 5) regional disposal system The major recommendations of the study deal with management and organizational matters. The study effort to date has revealed significant citizen support and reasons to change the current fragmented management structure. These include the need to develop more innovate ways of handling wastes and the need to develop management forms that can effectively carry out a resource recovery system. FUTURE QUESTIONS As in all the RISCO studies, the question of new ways of managing our environment is one of the most important questions. The study has shown the need for a regional system disposal. What institutional arrangements are needed for regional solid waste disposal and how can changes be broughtabout are several major questions that need to be resolved before all aspects of the solid waste plan can be carried out. z(-6.

The drainage program is being sponsored by Auburn, Kent, King County, Renton, Tukwila (as agencies having political jurisdic- tion within the area) , the King County Soil and Water Conserva- tion Districts . These sponsors formed the basin-wide agency known as the Green River Flood Control Zone ,District. The original funding was to be accomplished by the county (1/3) , the State (1/3) and the local sponsoring agencies (1/3) . . The U. S. Soil Conservation Service would be matching the local funding by the construction of the channels. There has been considerable delay to the project due to questions of funding and the requirement of an Environmental Impact State- ment for the total project. The results of the Environmental Impact Study by the S.C.S. has raised five points for which each of the sponsors are being ask- edto show their support. 1 . Provisions be made for fish passage through structural measures where needed. 2. Governmental units require conditions to provide envir- onmental quality with development for obtaining a per- mit for landfill or any type of urban development. 3. Preserve or relocate existing habitat along proposed channel routes for non-wetland wildlife habitat 4. Wildlife wetland habitat be acquired. (Recommended 120 acres.) 5. Governmental bodies adopt a land use policy that is consistent with a regional land use plan. The Renton Chamber has held a series Of meetings with property owners, city, county, and S.C.S ." officials in the Renton area to discuss and to up-date them on the progress of the drainage program. During these discussions it appears to the chamber and the people in attendance at these meetings, that the City of Renton is already meeting many of the requirements and we would like to briefly review them with you. 1 . Provisions be made for fish passage through structur- al measures where needed. -1- " Greater Rentor aashington Chamber of Con rce May 13., 1974 Provisions will be made for the fish passage by the county and the Soil Conservation Service during. construction. They have been work- ing with the Washington Fish and Game Department on the project. 2. Governmental units require conditions to provide environ- mental quality with development for obtaining a permit for landfill or any type of urban developments. This point seemsto be covered quite adequately by the Parking & Loading ordinance and the Grading, Mining and Excavation ordinance and the Zoning Ordinance passed by the City of Renton. 3. Preserve or relocate existing habitat along proposed ' chan- nel routes for non-wetland ,wildlife habitat. This would be handled at the time of construction. The city might wish to adopt within the drainage district, types of Iandscaping mat- erials that have been recommended by the. S. C. S. biologists. We un- derstand that the Planning Department has this under study at the pre- sent time. 4. Wild life wetland habitat be acquired. (They are recom- mending 110 acres for the total project . ) ' This is one of the points that the property owners of Renton address- ed themselves to at two meetings. The general consensus of these meetings was that a method of assess- ment or service charge could be handled through the Green River Flood Control Zone District. The Renton Chamber of Commerce would continue its effort to work with property owners in Renton and other Valley cit- ies to gain support for this type of financing. We would hope the city would continue the assistance of the staff people who have beeA'. most helpful to date. . 5. Governmental bodies adopt a land use policy that is' con- sistent with a regional land use plan. This point appears to be covered adequately by the existing Compre- hensive Land Use Plan and existing ordinances. (See attached Ex- hibit. ) The proposed plan for the valley area is a Manufacturing Park and would be comparable to Earlington Park. In summary, the Greater Renton Chamber of Commerce would urge the City of Renton to : A. Continue as sponsors of the Green River Flood Control Zone District. B. Adopt a resolution of intent to meet the requirements of the five points as outlined by the S. C.

There was widespread and: substantial damage to property within the City. While .: a proposed increase in runoff during a 10 yearstorm of 2 cfs may seem insignificant, it would nevertheless be contributory in damage . and measurable. The 10 year 1972 storm is part of a current study by the U.S. ' Corps ofEngineers which ;.is simulating the cumulative effects_ of land use changes of this type where storm runoff is unrestrained. Results are now available which indicate continuation of such land. use administration'would be catastrophic to the lower May Creek basin, doubling peakflow during the 10 .year, storm. Hydrologists tell us, however, property damage will not double, but will increase by several orders of magnitude and the impact on this fragile park-like area would be irreversible. Sound 'storm drainage policy,has, changed radically in recent years . Such policy involves two levels: the project and the basin.. . - The basin, ' policy is under development by the City's Public Works Director in conjunction,with regional State and Federal agencies. Meanwhile, it would, seem prudent for the council to affirm a project- policy in damage prone basins which is appropriate and within their authority, i.e. that no proposed action discharge a greater volume of storm water than the existing level and the developer be required to demonstrate to the Public. Works Director by acceptable,:engineering practice that the existing level will not be exceeded. Experience has shown that this requirement is not a burden' for the typical project, but when included within' the initial planning process,' .can actually lower the cost of conveying storm water. On a project ofthis size, appropriate storm water detention would be brief indeed and is unlikely;,to : impose a significant hardship on the developer. S/ -117, 'Donald O. orm- vyF.

Nancy Morris and Chuck Price were assigned to this task. 2 . Acquire a hydraulic design for the P1-and P-9 Channels . Chuck Price was assigned to this task. 3 . Settle on a project'. This would be an administrative decision. 4 . Provide a supplemental EIS on the P-1 and P-9 Channels . It might be advisable to use the same consultant to then expand its work to include the Oakesdale project . A number of minor issues were covered that need to be resolved. In no particular order they are as follows : 1 . Meet with :SCS and describe our work plan to them. 2 . Obtain a report on the prior meeting with DOE and conduct a follow-up meeting if necessary. 3 . Determine to what extent we can use SCS design money to prepare any or all of items 1 , 2 , and 4 above . 4 . Ascertain how close to completion the SCS design project is . 414 _ 1nn c 1...: c.—,. _ o ,... ... {17 L:__. nonc'7 _ /l/\C\ '1cc Or."70 Ken Nyberg, Mike Pa, :ss , & Larry Springer December 6 , 1988 Page 2 5 . Assess what is available for design information to determine how large the P-1 project must be, and use it if possible to calculate necessary designs . 6 . Determine how much of the P-1 ditch is used for compensating flood storage. 7 . Coordinate with Glacier Park' s wetland inventory. Lawrence J. Warren P. S . Around the first of December Don Monaghan contacted me and indicated that he thought the Panther Creek project and P-9 project could be completed with little or no environmental protest, particularly if it was handled correctly with DOE . Apparently the fisheries people are strongly in support of the P-9 and Panther Creek projects . He believes that SCS would then expend most of its available construction money to help us in those two projects . Although this was not discussed, and I have no idea whether or not it is practical, it should be discussed. LJW:as . cc: Mayor A8 . 35 :22 .

The wetlands study identifies and maps existing wetlands, evaluates the public resource and natural habitat value of individual wetlands, and recommends City action to protect or preserve certain wetlands. The purpose of this study is to provide an up-to-date wildlife, vegetation and hydrologic assessment of the remaining wetlands to aid public decision-making. In addition, the purpose of this study is to provide the Renton City Council and Planning Commission with policy direction regarding the future role of wetlands within the City. Wetlands are defined in this study as lands where the soil is at least periodically saturated with or covered with water. Another characteristic of wetlands is that they normally support hydrophytes --: plants that grow in water or saturated soil. Wetlands are environmentally sensitive areas and are critical to the maintenance of wildlife and fish resources. Wetlands serve as important feeding, hiding and breeding sites for wildlife. The contact between land and water contains many niches that support numerous and diverse types of plant and animal life. Wetlands serve other functions as well that enhance their public resource value. They preserve water quality by helping maintain low stream temperatures and by filtering stormwater pollutants. Wetlands also store heavy runoff in winter to control flooding and release water during the dry season to help maintain essential low flows. The wetlands of Renton are, therefore, an important public resource. The study area included the Green River Valley portion of Renton and one wetland along the Cedar River. The Green River Valley is a rapidly developing commercial/industrial area. Until ten years ago, much of the valley was covered with permanent wetlands and seasonally flooded farm lands. Urban development has resulted in the filling of most of the wetlands in Renton. This study focussed on twelve remaining wetland units that were considered important natural resources. Many smaller wetland areas and some seasonally flooded grasslands were not included in the study. The wetlands study was conducted by the City of Renton Planning Department with the assistance of Northwest Environmental Consultants. Funding was provided through 1978 Housing and Community Development Block Grant Funds. The study involved extensive fieldwork observing wildlife, vegetation, and hydrologic conditions. The level of detail, however, was limited because of time and funding constraints. Fieldwork was conducted during November and December 1980 which was not the most ideal period for observing vegetation and wildlife. Results of the fieldwork and of a search of pertinent background material were evaluated in order to rank the wetlands according to natural habitat value. Based on this ranking and on knowledge of feasible protective measures, recommendations for City action were made. WETLANDS WITHIN THE STUDY AREA The twelve wetlands addressed in this study are listed below and identified in the accompanying location map (Figure 9. A brief synoptic description of each wetland, as well as the location, current zoning, ownership and size of each unit, may be found in the evaluation sheets in Appendix II. -1- 3,.(=. .. -, .

Certain areas, such as the cattail marshes, appear to be undergoing a fairly dynamic rate of successional change. The best clues to the future vegetational characteristics of the City's wetlands would be the aboriginal conditions prior to extensive modifications by man. A fairly accurate depiction of thehistoric conditions in the valley floor can be obtained by analyzing the field notes of the U.S. Government Land Office surveyors who subdivided the area into townships and sections during the period 1862 through 1867. Based on narrative descriptions of "timber" and "undergrowth," as well as statistical analysis of the diameter and species of witness trees to the section corner, quarter corner, and meander corner monuments, it is possible to approximately reconstruct, descriptively, the aboriginal forest. For the most part, the valley floor was a mixed deciduous forest, much of it "liable to inundation" at depths estimated by the surveyor to range up to 72 Inches. The most frequently noted timber trees were Oregon Ash and Black Cottonwood, with Red Alder and Bigleaf Maple— noted half as often. Willows were apparently not regarded as timber trees, never appearing in the narration descriptions. Willows, however, were frequently called out as witness trees to monuments. The undergrowth was dominated by Vine Maple, various willows, and Oregon Crabapple. The swamps are poorly described, but appear to have been primarily willow thickets. One extensive "cranberry bog" of approximately 300 acres was noted, and also a "hardhack swamp" (Douglas spiraea). Trees were apparently scattered throughout the swamps. The survey field notes contain scant information about the density of timber trees, although there are notations of "little timber", "but little timber," and "no timber, under growth willow" for certain areas. The witness trees provide some indication, however. Over half the witness trees were trees less than six inches diameter or brush forms, with Vine Maple and willows being very common. There is no mention of extensive marshes of cattails or reed canary grass in the 1860's period, although these habitat types are fairly common wetlands in the valley at present. Many of these present cattail and reed canary grass wetlands have scattered brushy plants, such as Douglas spiraea, willows, and red-osier dogwood. -2- It appears, then, that when agriculatural and grazing practices were abandoned in the lands now identified as wetlands, the principal pioneer species were reed canary grass on higher ground and cattails on lower, wetter ground. In time, these habitat types are Invaded by brushy species. Over a period of fifty to one hundred years it is likely that brush swamps of spiraea, willows, and dogwood would replace the present wetlands. If a sufficient local seed stock still exists, the trees common to historical conditions might become established, scattered throughout the brush swamps. HYDROLOGY Historically, the Green River Valley floor flooded periodically when runoff overflowed the banks of the Green River, the Black River, or the tributary streams. Seasonally high water tables produced local flood effects or wetlands conditions. As flood conditions subsided, surface drainage to the rivers and tributaries was generally unimpeded. The U.S. Government Land Office township and section survey field notes for the area contain numerous notations estimating the annual inundation to be in the range of 12 to 72 inches in various locations. The Government Land Office survey notes are not entirely clear regarding the hydrology of the valley floor. Swamps and bogs were noted and mapped, as were numerous small sloughs. In a few instances, an implication of relatively permanent flooding of certain areas was attributed to beaver dams in the small sloughs. In recent decades, the surface hydrology has been altered substantially. Most stream courses across the valley floor have been straightened and channelized; even the rivers have been channelized in place along their meanders. Panther Creek, in particular, appears to have been substantially rerouted. Filling preparatory to industrial or commercial development throughout the valley appears to have had profound effects on surface runoff. The remaining wetlands of the Green River Valley are, for the most part, islands surrounded by fill. Surface drainage out of the wetland islands is often non-existent and otherwise probably inadequate. The high rates of runoff from adjacent filled areas covered by impervious surfaces (roofs, parking lots, etc.), in combination with impeded surface drainage, may have created a different character of wetland than that which persisted historically. Alternately, the hydrologic changes caused by contemporary filling and drainage practices may be approximating the historic conditions created by beaver dams. The existing surface hydrology of the study area is illustrated in Figure 2. The natural drainage pattern is dominated by the Springbrook Creek/Black River system. Springbrook Creek is fed by Mill Creek, Garrison Creek, a natural spring at the City of Renton Springbrook Watershed, and Panther Creek. These streams originate on the plateaus east of the Green River Valley and are supplemented by localized inflow within the Valley. Springbrook Creek carries an average flow of about 350 cubic feet per second during high runoff periods and about 9 cubic feet per second during low flow periods. Springbrook Creek/Black River empties into the Green River near Monster Road In the northwest portion of the study area. Springbrook Creek is channelized in some areas, and has been deepened and widened in past years by farmers and local jurisdictions to handle storm runoff. Local drainage to the creek is irregular, and made more so by the sporadic pattern of landfill in the Valley. Because of the limited capacity of Springbrook Creek and smaller channels, and because of the restricted capacity of Green River to receive stormwater during periods of high flow, localized flooding occurs within the Springbrook Creek sub-basin. -3- • -- —' ).�-_._*r', -r-- �- — ,s---' — -- --� —____(-J, �,_, vs:►�/,w�,t 'j/x;57 E ;'•- •• r; • t . ... `J I I l ,t -I--- — —V V s..:..., ., - }. �.o k, _ °o.:, . g of;•r 1 _� T � fit : _ L U 1 { 1 � •-i --'9 < 1 / .raçr\ i �i,l J� ,�` •.r.•_-_:r_:::ews. �." i�'r^+' 'A- ._ -?.^�.....

This project includes a pump plant (constructed In 1972), widened and realigned channels, and two major detention basins. Although the East Side Watershed Project will preserve 110 acres of wetlands in the Green River Valley (including the Panther Creek Wetland) as mitigation for the project, completion of this project will create conditions that allow filling and draining of remaining wetlands. The necessity for retaining existing wetlands for flood storage will be removed. New urban development in the Valley will route surface drainage directly to the channels rather than to or through existing wetlands. The direct effect of the East Side Watershed Project on existing wetlands is unclear. It may lower the water table sufficiently to change the character of existing wetlands over a period of years. This remains to be seen. Springbrook Creek joins Black River south of the Black River Riparian Forest. The Black River at this point is a small remnant of the old Black River that drained Lake Washington before the Lake Washington Ship Canal and Ballard Locks were constructed. Drainage from the hillsides north of the Burlington Northern Railroad tracks flows through the riparian forest and into Black River. Additional runoff is expected with the development of a major residential/commercial project northeast of the Black River Riparian Forest. There is currently a 60" storm sewer line outfall at the upstream terminus of the Black River that handles runoff from the Rainier Avenue corridor and much of South Renton. Drainage through the Panther Creek Wetland and East Valley Wetlands is complex. Although formerly part of a uniform agricultural drainage pattern, some of these wetlands have been isolated and flows redirected. The Panther Creek Wetland was partially cut off from the rest of the valley by construction of the Valley Freeway -- S1:2167. Panther Creek enters the wetland at the extreme southern end, just north of Valley General Hospital. The creek apparently flowed northward along the base of the hills prior to construction of the freeway. The flow of the creek now fans out just east of the freeway and most of the water makes its way through a culvert under the freeway near the south end of the wetland, only to slowly disappear in a maze of smaller drainage ditches and culverts. Local runoff from the hillsides, and perhaps some of the subsurface flow from Panther Creek, passes under SR 167 through a series of ten culverts spaced irregularly along the length of the wetland. The Valley Freeway was also constructed with a sand blanket under the roadbed to permit some lateral movement of water under the freeway. These drainage provisions, however, do not prevent surface water from ponding within the Panther Creek Wetland to a depth sufficient to support a wetland community. The north end of Panther Creek Wetland receives runoff from a 48" culvert that passes under FAI-405 and carries stormwater from Talbot Hill and Renton Village Shopping Center. Some of this flow moves south within the Panther Creek Wetlandthrough an exacavated trough to eventually pass through one of the culverts under SR 167. The majority of the surface flow, however, crosses SR 167 in a box culvert farther to the north that empties into Unit A of the East Valley Wetlands. The water level of the pond in Unit A is maintained by surface water passing through the box culvert under SR 167. Some flushing action probably occurs so that water quality is good. Water draining through this wetland crosses under Lind Avenue and enters Unit D of the East Valley Wetland. Flow through this wetland is diffuse, with surface water emerging at several points along the south side of the wetland. An open ditch here carries surface water to -4- Springbrook Creek. A continuous flow-through system, then, exists in this portion of the study area. Water from Talbot Hill and Renton Village passes through the northern end of the Panther Creek Wetland, flows through Unit A and the pond there, flushes through Unit D and finally enters Springbrook Creek.. This hydrologic system maintains the health of these wetlands. There is some interchange of water between Unit B and Unit A, but Unit B is basically a closed hydrologic system. Standing water --.often stagnant -- is present during most of the year. Unit C of the East Valley Wetlands receives local runoff from the properties along East Valley Road. This water moves slowly through the wetland to two large arch culverts under Lind Avenue at the northwest corner of Unit C, then follows an open ditch to Springbrook Creek. The other wetlands east of Springbrook Creek --. Units E and F --: receive local runoff and empty directly into Springbrook Creek. This entire drainage system east of Springbrook Creek, as it now exists, will be modified by the construction of the P-9,channel of the East Side Watershed Project and of L.I.D. 314. The P-9, channel will be constructed from the Panther Creek Wetland to the approximate location of Springbrook Creek (P-I channel), passing along the north edge of Units E and C and under SR 167. The P-9,channel will direct Panther Creek and the runoff from the entire wetland through one outlet. The design of the drainage project will allow for detention of stormwater In the Panther Creek Wetland during flood periods. In addition, L.I.D. 314 proposes to redirect Talbot Hill and Renton Village drainage through Panther Creek Wetland to the P-9;channel rather than through Units A and D of the East Valley Wetland. Storm sewers will also be constructed along East Valley Road and Lind Avenue to handle local runoff. The combination of these drainage improvements will disrupt the current drainage patterns through the East Valley Wetlands. The Renton Wetland is fed by local runoff from mostly undeveloped lands west of Springbrook Creek. Water moves through this wetland and directly into Springbrook Creek. Orillia Pond also is maintained by local inflow, but has no apparent outlet. The P-I channel of the East Side Watershed Project will have some effect on the hydrologic regimes of both these wetlands. Orillia Pond lies in the path of the P-1 channel and will be removed. The Renton Wetland lies adjacent to the proposed alignment of the P-I channel, separated only by Valley Parkway. Construction of the parkway and the channel will remove some of the drainage area of the Renton Wetland and may eliminate most of the water flow in Springbrook Creek. What effect these projects will have on the Renton Wetland is unclear. Wetland conditions in Springbrook Wetland are,maintained by runoff directly from the adjacent hillsides. SR 167 contains several culverts and is laid over a sand blanket, but the roadway still functions as a dike in keeping high water levels within Springbrook Wetland. The upper reach of Springbrook Creek --, which originates from a spring on the hillside east of Talbot Road --, passes through the south edge of this wetland and under SR 167. The creek occasionally floods over a portion of Springbrook Wetland. The final wetland included in this study is the Cedar River Marsh. This wetland receives runoff from the steep, heavily wooded hillsides above it and discharges to the Cedar River over a small cascade. This marsh is apparently perched on a relatively impermeable sandstone bedrock layer that maintains the marsh level some 20-30feet above the river. IDENTIFICATION AND CLASSIFICATION OF WETLANDS This wetland study examines twelve important wetlands within the City of Renton. Because of time and funding constraints, this investigation was conducted at a reconnaissance study level of detail. Field work was completed during November and December 1980. Therefore, detailed wildlife inventories, vegetation sampling, and soil and water analyses were not possible. Moreover, wetlands smaller than five acres and seasonally flooded fields and pasture were not included in the study. -5- Adequate fieldwork was accomplished, however, to identify dominant vegetation (usually to species), general soil characteristics, areal extent of wetlands, and location of wetland types, and to reliably estimate wildlife usage and potential, and hydrologic regime. Extensive field notes were taken and later re-written in narrative form. Many of these notes are included in this document as Appendix I. Wetlands are characterized by certain features: the presence of water covering or saturating the soil during a significant portion of the year, water tolerant plants (hydrophytes), and undrained soils. At least one of these features is present in every wetland. However, each wetland is unique: different vegetation, soils and water regime. In order to evaluate wetlands for natural habitat value, to understand successional changes in wetlands, to develop management strategies for individual wetlands, and to compare individual wetlands, it is helpful to classify wetlands by type. A classification system based on the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Classification of Wetlands and Deepwater Habitats (December 1979) was developed for this study. Since all of the wetlands in the study area fall within the Palustrihe System --, characterized by fresh water • and by extensive vegetation - the classification system used here is based on growth-form classes and dominant vegetation. Three major classes of wetlands were identified: emergent wetlands, scrub-shrub wetlands and forested wetlands. A fourth class --.transitional -- was also included where soil, water and vegetation conditions did not clearly indicate a wetland or an upland. Emergent wetlands are characterized by erect, non-woody, usually persistent perennial plants. Common dominants in the emergent wetlands studied include cattails (Typha latifolia L.), reed canary grass (Phalaris arundinacea L.), rushes (Juncus spp.), and smartweeds (Polygonum spp.). Scrub-shrub wetlands are characterized by woody plants --,shrubs and small trees --, up to 20 feet tall. Typical scrub-shrub dominants include willow (Salix spp.), spiraea (Spiraea douglasii Hook.), and red alder (Alnus rubra Bong.). Forested wetlands contain woody vegetation greater than 20 feet tall. Cottonwood (Populus trichocarpa T.&.G.), willow (Salix spp.), red alder (Alnus rubra Bong.), and Oregon ash (Fraxinus latifolia Benth.) are the most common dominants in this class. Maps on the following pages illustrate the classification of wetland types. The limits of wetlands, linear wetland features, areas of permanent or semi-permanent open water, vegetation anomalies and the general flow of water through the wetlands are also indicated on the maps. A key to wetland classes and dominant species is included Table 1). -6- TABLE 1 KEY TO WETLAND TYPES Wetland Classes E -- Emergent Wetland $ -- Scrub-shrub Wetland F -- Forested Wetland T -- Transitional Habitat = -- Open Water (permanently or semi-permanently flooded) Vegetation Dominants 1 - Typha latifolia L.

(Sitka Spruce) Tsuga heterophylla (Raf. ) Sarg. (Pacific Hemlock) Thuja plicata Donn. (Western Red Cedar) Vegetation dominants may be combined. A slash "/" indicates co-dominants and parentheses " () " indicatle a sub-dominant. Vegetation dominants are listed in order of relative dominance. A general guideline that was followed is the 30% rule. If a vegetation type covered more than 30% of a wetland unit, that vegetation was considered a dominant or co-dominant. Sub-dominants covered less than 30% of the area but were significant to the character of the wetland. In all cases, overstory vegetation was given precedence in the classification if the overstory species covered more than 30% of the area. -7- A., • . • - BLACK RIVER • . . • • RIPARIAN FOREST . . . : • • • .

W. 43 d Street II COMPARATIVE EVALUATION OF WETLAND HABITATS In the context of this reconnaissance report, wetlands are considered "multi-purpose" natural areas. As functioning ecosystems, wetlands provide open space, wildlife habitat, natural flood storage and passive recreation. Because of size, isolation, vegetational character, open water and other variables, some wetlands are more valuable than others. Using a series of environmental variables, a comparative evaluation of the wetlands of Renton was performed. This evaluation resulted in a ranking of wetlands according to their overall value as multi-purpose wetlands. The following discussion of the Evaluation Matrix explains the criteria employed in this evaluation and ranking. EVALUATION MATRIX The ranking of wetlands for wildlife value Is a problematic enterprise, raising such questions as "Which wildlife?", "For what habitat uses?", "With what degree of management?", etc. Many of these questions can carry with them value judgements which will be analyzed differently by Individual wildlife biologists, ecologists, and environmental advocates. The questions to which answers were sought during this reconnaissance study are summarized in Table I, and are discussed briefly below. Criteria 1. Adjacent Development The wildlife value of any habitat type to many species is to some degree dependent on adjacent habitat types for complimentary needs, such as feeding, roosting, nesting, etc., that are not satisfied in the primary habitat. Wetlands lying adjacent to lands developed for human use are greatly diminished in wildlife value for many species when compared to existing or pristine conditions. Further, the nature of the adjacent developed land use is also a factor. Residential lands are probably the most disruptive of adjacent wildlife habitats due to roaming pet dogs and cats, noise, the proximity of human presence, and occasional intrusions. At the other extreme, commercial land uses, such as warehousing, may have little or no effect on wildlife. In considering the development potential on adjacent lands, the time period of ten years, the average life of a Comprehensive Plan, was used. Over longer periods of times, say 50 or 100 years, it Is likely that a parcel of land could be developed. As undeveloped land diminishes and land values Increase, what Is today considered undevelopable due to financial or technical constraints may no longer be so. A period of ten years is a somewhat arbitrary choice, but one which produces some differentiation between wetlands. Criteria 2. Isolation Direct human intrusion into a wildlife habitat can be sufficient to destroy the value of that habitat to certain species without any physical alteration to the habitat. It is important to recognize the difference between wildlife refuges, wildlife recreation areas, and public parks. In general, the criteria applied to evaluation of intrusion effects on wildlife value are as follows: Low wildlife values were applied to wetlands adjacent to residential areas (including potential residential areas), and to high use pedestrian pathways. Middling values were applied to wetlands adjacent to land uses such as warehousing, light industrial, or commercial. High wildlife values were accorded to wetlands that are and will remain Inaccessible, or of difficult accessibility such as lands bounded by steep slopes and/or freeways. Criteria 3. General Wildlife Diversity In a study such as this, conducted ata reconnaissance level etail, general wildlife diversity must be estimated from the diversity and density of vegetation and habitat types within a wetland unit, rather than from direct observation. To a -8- it TABLE 2 EVALUATION MATRIX WILDLIFE VALUES RANKING CRITERIA HIGH MIDDLE LOW 1. Degree of Development, none/ high/ likelihood on adjacent remote possible developed parcels 2.

Factors which must be considered in making such an estimate include the quality and availabilitiy of habitat for feeding, roosting, nesting, brooding, and for certain species, loafing. Criteria 4. Waterfowl In general, the same comments that apply to general wildlife diversity, also- apply to waterfowl population density and diversity. The principal use of Green River Valley wetlands by waterfowl is for over-wintering ponds and nesting and feeding areas during migration. A lesser number of waterfowl species and populations nest and: raise broods In the area. The issue of present and potential value is important. The Green River Valley is In a constant state of flux; the urbanization of the valley, only recently begun, will at least proceed apace, if not quicken both in pace and intensity. A more important question, then, is what the wildlife value of a parcel might be in coming decades. Criteria 5. Uniqueness In a regional context, any wetlands may be considered a unique habitat, and increasingly so each year. The analysis conducted here rates the relative uniqueness or commonality of each habitat as a wetland. Unique wetland habitats are important because they provide rare opportunities for wildlife populations that cannot be satisfied elsewhere. In evaluating each wetland unit, the initial assumption was one of "low wildlife value." The wetland was then appraised for certain qualities, namely: permanent open water old growth vegetation, particularly trees substantial numbers of snags (dead, standing trees) abundance of plant food species representation of a remnant of a once larger or more widespread habitat type The more unique features Identified in a wetland unit, the more unique is the classification, moving from low to middling to high. Criteria 6. Aesthetics In establishing wildlife values, aesthetic values are of no importance. _ However, other factors being equal, human aesthetic values are a valid ranking issue. Therefore, this study employs aesthetic values In the ranking system. In general, the basic aesthetic consideration for individual wetland units was prominence in a viewshed. The aesthetic appeal of a cattail marsh or willow brush swamp varies with the individual person; therefore, every attempt was made to avoid letting individual considerations about such matters enter into the evaluation process. Low ratings were given to wetland units not In public view. High ratings were given to units that are prominant features of a viewshed. Intermediate ratings were given to other parcels not fitting the high or low rating criteria. Criteria 7. Areal Extent The area covered by a wetland habitat can be an Important valuation factor,particularly when habitat characteristics are approximately equal. Certain wetland habitat types are subject to Invasion by "foreign" plant species along their edges; therefore, a certain bulk is necessary to insure that the wetland will be self-sustaining as a vegetative community. In other wetlands, location and surrounding land uses may dictate that some part of the wetland periphery has value primarily as a buffer, not a wildlife habitat. The acreages defined in Table 1 are merely a guideline. Shape is as important as area, and long narrow wetlands such as the Panther Creek unit were downgraded due to shape despite their relatively high areal extent. -10- Criteria 8. Hydrology Ecologically, wetlands In the Green River Valley (and elsewhere in the Puget Sound basin) seem to function better and appear to be longer-lived If their hydrologic characteristics permit a through-flow as compared to wetlands which are closed basins. Closed basin wetlands were therefore rated lowest. Highest ratings were reserved for wetlands which not only have through-flow qualities, but which also have the capability of serving as detention basins for flood flows from existing or proposed drainage channels. The evaluation and ranking of wetlands is expressed in qualitative terms. By comparison with other wetlands, each wetland unit was placed on a scale from high to low value for each of the eight criteria. The final ranking of wetlands for multi- purpose value was accomplished by examining the overall evaluation for each wetland, rather than merely by summing the high and low values within the matrix. This process takes into consideration the differences in value between the eight environmental criteria. Because of the limited nature of the supporting data that can be collected and analyzed in a reconnaissance study, the ranking of wetlands is somewhat subjective. Therefore, the relative value of wetlands separated by only one or two places In ranking might be difficult to substantiate, but the general pattern of highest ranking to lowest ranking wetlands could be supported by additional research. The potential ease or difficulity of preserving a particular wetland by the City was consciously excluded from consideration In the evaluation and ranking process. Recommendations for City action with respect to particular wetlands take into account these limitations, however. The evaluation sheets for each wetland unit are included in this report as Appendix II. The final ranking of wetlands within the City is as follows (from highest to lowest in value). 1. BLACK RIVER RIPARIAN FOREST This forested wetland in considered the most valuable wetland within the City. It is large, fairly Isolated, has high overall wildlife diversity, high wildlife and waterfowl potential, and an extremely unique vegetational character composed of a complex of old growth riparian species. It provides high.value open space and aesthetic qualities. The interaction with Springbrook Creek and the P-I channel detention basin increase's its wildlife habitat value. 2. RENTON WETLANDS This unit includes the 20 acre "Renton Wetland" and the contiguous unfilled wetland to the south and west. This wetland has large open water areas, high general wildlife and waterfowl diversity and potential, and unique vegetational components. (NOTE: If the Renton Wetland unit Is preserved in conjunction with Unit F of the East Valley Wetlands -- across Springbrook Creek to the east -- the combined value of these units is considered equivalent to the value of the Black River Forest. The additional size -- total of 60-65 acres -- and waterfowl potential under proper management make these combined units more valuable than either unit considered alone.) 3. PANTHER CREEK WETLANDS This long, narrow wetland is relatively Isolated, provides a variety of wildlife habitats and has high waterfowl potential with management. The potential for natural flood storage'increases the value of this habitat. -11- 4. CEDAR RIVER MARSH AND COTTONWOOD GROVE The combination of the perched marsh and adjacent riparian grove Is ,unique geologically and Is isolated. The aesthetic and recreational open space values are high. Without the riparian grove, this wetland has less diversity and falls in value. 5. COMBINATION OF UNITS A AND B OF EAST VALLEY WETLANDS This combined wetland of 30-35 acres provides much open water for waterfowl and aesthetic value. Although these units may be split by S.W. 19th Street, their combined area increases their value substantially. 6. UNIT A - EAST VALLEY WETLANDS The presence of a sizeable pond with surface water feeding It gives this wetland high value f or water- fowl. The lack of vegetational diversity and its small size limit the value of this wetland. 7. CEDAR RIVER MARSH The perched Cedar River Marsh and adjacent slopes considered alone are unique geologically and provide high aesthetic value. The small size and limited wildlife potential restrict its value. 8. UNIT D - EAST VALLEY WETLANDS Small pools of open water, a highly varied vegetational community supporting a diversity of wildlife and high waterfowl potential make this wetland valuable. Adjacent development and small size are limiting factors. 9. UNIT B - EAST VALLEY WETLANDS This small wetland has high waterfowl use and potential. Its value is lessened by size and uncertain water supply. 10. ORILLIA POND While this pond with its numerous snags is well used by waterfowl for resting and loafing, its small size limits its potential as a wetland. This area is valuable as a complement to other area wetlands. 11. UNIT C - EAST VALLEY WETLANDS This wetland has a diverse vegetational character, Including some overstory components typical of former Green River Valley Wetlands. Wildlife and waterfowl potential is high, but the size of the wetland is restrictive. 12. SPRINGBROOK WETLAND This wetland is rather isolated and serves as valuable open space. However, wildlife and waterfowl potential is middling and the vegetation --; except for a_ few large snags --:is not unique. -12- • • 13. UNIT F - EAST VALLEY WETLANDS Although this wetland has good potential with proper management --,especially if combined with the Renton Wetlands to the west across Springbrook Creek --; , • it is currently not highly valuable for wildlife or waterfowl. Open water areas have been closed off by the invasion of pioneer species and water supply is not assured. 14. UNIT E - EAST VALLEY WETLANDS This wetland is uniformly forested, provides some open space and limited wildlife and waterfowl habitat. Its primary value is as a nesting, roosting area and as a link with other wetlands. • • • -13- CURRENT POLICIES AND PLANS RELATED TO WETLANDS As part of this reconnaissance study, a review of current policies and plans affecting wetlands in the City of Renton was conducted. This background research was necessary in order to develop recommendations for protection of important wetlands that would be compatible with the existing regulatory framework. The current policies and plans related to wetlands in the City apply only on a piece-meal or short-term basis. No overall policy for wetlands preservation or protection exists, nor is there a general .plan for the establishment of a system of wetlands. The Comprehensive Plan designates some wetlands as greenbelts but does not distinguish them from other open space areas or link them as part of an overall system. Likewise, the Renton Zoning Code and other development regulations and the State Environmental Policy Act may be employed to mitigate or control impacts to wetlands, but only in an incremental fashion as development takes place. Under current plans and policies, it would be difficult to pursue a program of wetlands protection, acquisition and maintenance. Any action that the City might take to restrict or control development in order to preserve wetlands must be made on the basis of well-defined plans and policies. Further, unless a policy framework exists for a wetlands system in the City, wetlands will be viewed and managed as unconnected pieces. Although some of the wetlands that are preserved may, in fact, be islands, they should be addressed as part of an overall wetlands system. Of the current plans aimed at wetlands within the City of Renton, the most focussed has been the East Side Watershed Project. As compensation for the wetland habitat that would be lost with the development of this drainage project, the local sponsoring jurisdictions and the Soil Conservation Service signed a letter of agreement in 1974 outlining environmental mitigation. The City of Renton adopted Resolution 1923 on June 3, 1974 agreeing to these provisions. The agreement called for the acquisition of 110 acres of suitable wetland habitat within the project area, the requirement of a landscaping plan and two percent of additional landscaping for wildlife habitat in granting development permits in the Valley, the requirement that all land not being currently developed be planned and managed for wildlife until developed, and additional provisions for fish passage, riparian habitat and a land use plan. Several past studies have identified wetlands within the City of Renton (and elsewhere in the Valley) as appropriate for acquisition to meet the requirements of this agreement. No formal plan for implementing this agreement and no financial package to finance the mitigation was adopted, however. There was (and is) confusion concerning any responsibility the City has for acquiring a share of the wetlands. Twenty acres of wetland (the Renton Wetland) with an option for thirty-nine more (portions of the Renton Wetland and Unit F of the East Valley Wetlands), were donated to the City in anticipation of satisfying a portion of this agreement. In October 1980 an Environmental Mitigation Plan to implement the provisions of the letter of agreemetnt was finally adopted by the Green River Basin Executive Committee representing the local jurisdictions and by federal agencies. This Plan is being sent to local city councils along with a financial plan for the project. As approved, the Environmental Mitigation Plan calls for the Panther Creek Wetland to be preserved and managed as part of the East Side Watershed Project for stormwater detention and as forty acres of suitable wetland habitat for mitigation. The Green River Basin Program and the East Side Watershed Project have also identified the Renton Wetland and the Black River Riparian Forest as valuable wetland habitat which could enhance the multiple purposes of the drainage project. These areas, however, are not currently linked to project planning in any formal way. -14- The other purpose of the environmental agreement -- two percent additional landscaping and retention of undeveloped land for wildlife -- have not resulted in the protection of existing wetland areas. Although these provisions are technically enforced, they are not applied specifically with a view toward wetlands nor within the concept of an overall wetlands system. The Green River Valley Comprehensive Plan was adopted by the City of Renton in 1976, partially in response to the environmental mitigation agreement for the East Side Watershed Project. The Comprehensive Plan designates most of the Valley within Renton as Manufacturing Park. However, the Renton Wetland and Panther Creek Wetland are identified as greenbelts. Policies that accompany the Plan also encourage permanent reservation and management of large areas for wildlife habitat, and suggest that, wherever feasible, unique natural features should be incorporated into development plans. As applied to wetlands, these policies have not been supplemented by specific land use regulations or a wetlands acquisition program. An expanded Policies Element for the entire City isunder consideration by the City Council at this time, but this must also be implemented by specific regulations. The Cedar River Marsh is designated as recreation on the Southeast Area Comprehensive Plan. Comprehensive Plan policies for the Renton Wetland, Panther Creek Wetland, Cedar River Marsh and other wetland areas are useful in providing short-term protection and as part of an overall wetlands policy, but are not adequate to provide permanent protection and management of important wetlands. The City of Renton Zoning Code, Subdivision Ordinance and Mining, Excavation and Grading Ordinance do not specifically address wetlands. These regulations may be used to condition developmentactions and to require retention of wetlands for storm runoff, flood storage or land use buffers. However, these ordinances may only be applied when specific developments are proposed. Any wetland habitat preserved is, therefore, usually small, extensively modified, or unconnected to other wetland units. To date, none of the wetlands identified in this reconnaissance study have been afforded protection under the Renton development regulations. Coordinated with a general wetlands policy and plan, however, these regulations could be effective. The Renton Shoreline Master Program establishes standards for development in or adjacent to shorelines of the City and associated wetlands. Of the wetlands identified in this study, only a portion of the Black River Riparian Forest and the Cedar River Marsh are within the jurisdiction of the Shoreline Master Program. The Black River and Springbrook Creek upstream to FAI-405 are designated as shorelines of the City and shown as urban environments. This jurisdiction extends 200 feet into the Riparian Forest bordering the Black River and has been interpreted to include the wetlands of the old Black River channel. The urban environment is governed by regulations that control the quality of future development and provide for public access to the waterfront. Protection of wetlands outside the actual channel is limited, however. The shoreline of the Cedar River adjacent to the Cedar River Marsh is designated as a conservancy environment. The first 200 feet of riparian grove, the ridge separating the marsh from the river and the marsh itself are included within this jurisdiction. Under the conservancy environment, commercial, industrial and most residential uses are prohibited. Therefore, the Shoreline Master Program can be used effectively for preservation of most of the Cedar River Marsh habitat, although this protection may not be long-term. The State Environmental Policy Act (Chapter 43.21C RCW) and the Renton Environmental Ordinance (Title IV, Chapter 28 of the Renton Municipal Code) require environmental review of most development proposals in the City that affect wetlands. The City, through the Environmental Review Committee, may require environmental impact statements and may deny or condition proposed actions based on the adverse impacts of the proposed projects. All greenbelts, conservancy environments, and the 100-year floodplain are designated as -15- Environmentally Sensitive Areas which are not exempt from a determination of significance/non-significance in the City. These environmental regulations can be used to protect wetlands identified in this study. However, such protection would be short-term, would be linked to a specific development project, and must be supported by strong factual evidence showing unacceptable impacts. Although it has not been employed to date to protect wetlands identified in this study, Federal law has some potential to complement an overall wetlands policy within the City. Under Section 404 of the Clean Water Act, administered by the Corps of Engineers, landfill in and adjacent to waters and associated wetlands of the United States is regulated. For a variety of reasons, however, the Corps does not currently exercise jurisdiction in the Springbrook/Black River watershed. Protection of wetlands under this review process would, in any case, be short-term and incremental. Approximately nine acres of the Panther Creek Wetland is currently protected and maintained as wetland under the provisions of the State of Washington Open Space, Agricultural and Timber Lands -- Current Use Assessment Law (Chapter 84.34 RCW). Under this law, property owners gain tax advantages by declaring their land (including wetlands) as open space. Although this protection for wetlands is not long-term -- open space classifications may be changed -- this law has the potential for broader application within the City and could be coordinated with a general wetland policy. POTENTIAL MECHANISMS FOR LONG-TERM WETLAND PRESERVATION All of the plans, policies and regulations discussed in'the preceding section may be employed to provide some measure of protection to wetlands in the City of Renton. This is especially true if important wetlands are recognized In City policy and recommended for preservation. However, with the exception of wetland acquisition through the East Side Watershed Project, each of these measures will provide only partial or short-term protection. Mechanisms for permanent protection must be implemented if the City desires to maintain a system of wetlands as wildlife habitat and open space. In reality, permanent protection translates into acquisition by the City or other agency. Acquisition could be in fee simple or by some means of partial acquisition. Purchase of title to wetlands in the City would require a clearly defined acquisition program and appropriate means of financing purchases. Federal, state and other sources of funding would have to be pursued. The primary restriction to outright purchases is the high land values in Renton, especially in rapidly urbanizing areaslike the Green River Valley. A second means of acquisition in fee Is by private donation. Several years ago, the City of Renton received title to twenty acres of the Renton Wetland through private donation. Although private donations are financially beneficial to the City, solicitation of additional donations is unlikely to produce significant new wetland acreage because of high land values and increasing development potential. The City has established the Green River Wildlife and Greenbelt Preservation Fund -- currently containing limited resources -- to accept donations for acquisition of wetlands. The City may also exercise the power of eminent domain to acquire important wetlands. In this case, the City would determine that the acquisition of certain wetlands was in the public interest, the property would be taken through condemnation, and just compensation would be -16- paid to the owners. The City would have to adhere to a set of well-defined policies and plans outlining the public purpose to be served by the wetlands and the benefits of preserving the wetlands. Again, a major restriction to the use of eminent domain is the cost of compensation in an area of high land value. Other agencies and organizations have in the past expressed interest in preserving some of the important wetlands in Renton. The City could encourage acquisition by, or joint acquisition with, other public and private agencies. Funds are sometimes available in State and Federal agencies for purchase of wetlands and wildife habitat. A King County bond issue for parks and open space is currently being developed for presentation to the voters. The City could pursue the inclusion of wetland acquisition in this measure. Private organizations, such as the Nature Conservancy and Trust for Public Land, could also be involved in the purchase of land for wetlands preservation Partial acquisition of property is another means of long-term protection of wetlands. This approach would involve the purchase of a drainage easement or wetland easement or the acquisition of development rights to a property. The process of acquiring partial interest in a property would be similar to full purchase, but would be most effective in specialized circumstances where some minimal or non-competing use of the property is retained by the owner and the land is managed as wetland by the City. Except for these limited situations, partial acquisition is likely to be as expensive as full purchase. -17- • GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS I. WETLANDS POLICY -- The City of Renton should adopt by Ordinance a comprehensive wetland policy. This policy statement should define wetlands within the City, recognize the purposes of natural wetlands, set as a goal the preservation in a natural condition of those wetlands with the most value for wildlife habitat, surface water retention and open space, establish standards for evaluating the benefits of wetlands and for preserving the most valuable wetlands. 2. WETLAND PRESERVATION -- The City should follow the adoption of a Wetland Policy with efforts to preserve valuable wetlands. In the case of highly valuable wetlands, this protection should be permanent, and the wetlands should be managed for maximum benefit. Potential mechanisms for preservation are discussed above. 3. NATURAL ISLANDS CONCEPT -- Historically, wetlands covered most of the Green River Valley floor. These wetlands were all part of the same ecosystem. However, in recent years extensive landfill and development has displaced most wetlands and broken up this system. Few of the wetlands that remain are functionally or spatially linked. Those wetlands that are recommended in this report for permanent protection, particularly the four highest ranking wetlands -- Black River Riparian Forest, Renton Wetland, Panther Creek Wetland and Cedar River Marsh and Grove -- should be perceived as "natural islands". An island, or refuge, concept should guide preservation and management of these multi-purpose wetlands. This concept is Important because in the future these wetlands will likely be surrounded by urban development and will function as islands of wildlife habitat and open space. The wetlands that are preserved will become increasingly more valuable. This island concept also has implications for the critical size necessary to maintain the health of a wetland and for future recreational/educational enjoyment of the wetlands. 4. LANDFILL -- The City should adopt temporary regulations controlling future landfills in the Green River Valley. A moratorium should be enacted to prevent all speculative landfill (i.e. landfill without submission of specific building plans) unless significant environmental mitigation is provided. Further, on those sites where landfill is permitted, the City should require that the volume of the 25 year design storm be retained on-site and that landfill be restricted to 50% of the site, In a concentrated pattern. All these restrictions should apply until the East Side Watershed Project or an equivalent floodwater conveyance system is completed. This moratorium and landfill restriction is necessary because natural flood storage areas, i.e. wetlands, are being removed rapidly and the threat of floods is increasing. This recommendation is consistent with interim landfill control measures adopted by the Green River Basin Program. Landfill controls should apply to the entire valley floor within Renton, not just to the area of the current moratorium. SPECIFIC RECOMMENDATIONS The following recommendations apply to individual wetlands. Wetlands are discussed in the order of their ranking. The first four wetlands are extremely valuable and the City should make every effort to afford them permanent protection. For other wetlands, opportunities for preservation are more limited, but where appropriate, measures to protect the natural functioning of the wetlands are recommended. Under each wetland unit, recommendations are listed in the order of urgency. -18- Black River Riparian Forest Because this wetland is the highest ranked in the study area, the City should take all reasonable measures to permanently protect it. I. The City should deny any requested change in zoning from the current General Classification (G). This policy is based on the uniqueness of the forest and the adverse environmental impacts that would occur through rezone and subsequent development. Loss of this wetland cannot be adequately compensated through environmental mitigation. Loss of any of the riparian forest to urban development will severely impact the habitat value. Furthermore, at least 40 acres of wetland in one contiguous block would have to be retained in Its natural condition in order for the riparian forest to continue as a functioning habitat. Anything less than this size would probably function primarily as low value open space. 2. The City should investigate the purchase of the entire 65-70 acre habitat for a wildlife/recreation area, possibly with the assistance of the Nature Conservancy, Trust for Public Land or other organizations. 3. The entire riparian forest should be designated as a greenbelt on the Comprehensive Plan. In addition, the steep hillsides north of the riparian forest between S.W. Sunset Blvd. and the B.N. railroad tracks should be designated greenbelt•to prevent severe erosion, loss of wildlife habitat, and adverse impacts to the riparian forest. 4. Through the Green River Basin Program, the City should insure that the design and construction of the East Side Watershed Project enhances the value of the riparian forest. 5. The Shoreline Master Program should be amended to show the north side of Black River as a conservancy environment. Renton Wetlands As the second highest ranking wetland in the study area, the Renton Wetlands should be permanently preserved as wetland habitat. This includes the twenty acres owned by the City of Renton and ten to fifteen additional acres of wetland immediately adjacent on the south and west. I. The City should retain ownership of its twenty acres of wetland. This valuable wetland should not be sold in order to acquire other wetland property. No wetlands of comparable value could be purchased short of acquiring the entire Black River Riparian Forest. 2. No LID assessment to this wetland property should be allowed. Significant assessments from LID 314 and future LIDs will in effect,require this wetland to be developed for urban uses. As a natural wetland, this area will receive no benefits from the LID, and the City should not permit the wetland to be destroyed in this manner. 3. The portion of this wetland that is currently outside the City of Renton ownership is an integral part of the habitat. Much of the open water lies in the southerly portion of the site. The entire wetland must be protected if It is to retain its high value for wildife habitat. Therefore, no landfill or development of the southern -19- or westerly portions of the wetland should be permitted. This could be accomplished by denying development permits on environmental grounds or by conditioning development of Unit F of the Valley Wetlands (to the east across Springbrook Creek) to require the retention of the natural wetlands lying south and west of the City owned wetlands. 4. The Renton Wetlands should be managed as wildlife habitat. Management should begin immediately with measures to prevent indiscriminate dumping and disturbance and with enforcement of hunting regulations. The dirt road that currently bisects the wetland should be closed. 5. The entire Renton Wetlands and the Springbrook Creek corridor should be maintained as greenbelts on the Comprehensive Plan. Panther Creek Wetland The Panther Creek Wetland is the third highest ranking wetland in the City. The City should take all reasonable steps necessary to permanently protect this wetland. I. The Panther Creek Wetland is planned as an element of the Soil Conservation Service East Side Watershed Project. The wetland will be used as a flood storage area which will preserve the wetlands in their natural condition. However, until such time as the ESWP acquires this property, the wetland must be protected from urban development. Therefore, the City should take all necessary measures to prevent development in the wetlands. These measures may include a temporary development moratorium or denial of development permits on environmental grounds. 2. The Comprehensive Plan greenbelt designation should be maintained for this entire wetland. In addition, .the steep slopes that border the wetland on the east are necessary buffers for protecting the wildlife habitat value of the wetland. The City should amend the Comprehensive Plan to show these steep hillsides as greenbelt. 3. Until the Panther Creek Wetland is acquired for use in the ESWP, the City should manage the portion of the wetland in its ownership as wildlife habitat, and encourage other property owners to do likewise. Management could include enforcement of hunting and dumping restrictions, and an integrated pest control program. The City should also encourage property owners to file for the Open Space Taxation Program. 4. At this time, the City should not attempt to purchase the Panther Creek Wetland unless this is the only means for its preservation. If the ESWP is not constructed within a reasonable time period, then the City should explore alternatives for acquiring the wetland. Cedar River Marsh This wetland and riparian habitat is a unique environment and every effort should be made to preserve it. I. The City should renew efforts to acquire the Cedar River Marsh as an important open space resource and as a link in the Cedar River Trail System. Acquisition should include the cottonwood grove adjacent to the Cedar River, the marsh -20- Itself, and a portion of the surrounding hillside up to the elevation of the ridge that separates the marsh from the river. These areas surrounding the marsh should be preserved because they are critical buffers for this small marsh. The cottonwood grove is appropriate for low intensity recreational use. 2. Urban development in the area of the Cedar River Marsh should be carefully regulated; development within the wetland itself or within the required buffer zone should not be permitted. 3. The current Comprehensive Plan designation for most of the site is recreation. This designation should remain in force and guide land use decisions Involving the property. Unit A -- East Valley Wetlands This wetland is a valuable wildlife habitat, especially the large open water body. A current landfill permit for the site and LID 314 (which proposes to drain the pond) threaten the existence of this wetland. Therefore, opportunities to preserve the wetland are limited. 1. As a condition of short plat approval for the site, the Hearing Examiner required the dedication of easements to protect the natural drainage and stormwater _ retention qualities of the site. Theseeasements should be enforced by the City. 2. The City should authorize administration representatives to negotiate with the property owner concerning possible means of preserving the pond. This might involve incorporating the existing pond into development plans for the site. The pond with a small buffer strip would still be valuable to wildlife and would enhance design of a future.development. Even when LID 314 is constructed, natural water supply to the pond could be provided which would maintain the water level and quality of the wetland. Unit D -- East Valley Wetlands . This wetland provides diverse wildlife habitat and efforts should be made to preserve as much of this wetland as possible. Even an area as small as 5-10 acres would be valuable for wetland habitat if surrounded by a buffer area and managed for wildlife. An active fill permit exists for the site; therefore, any action to preserve a portion of the wetland must be timely. I. The City should authorize administration representatives to negotiate with property owners to preserve a portion of the wetlands. This could involve an offer to trade previously filled land owned by the City in some other location in exchange for 5-10 unfilled wetland acres. 2. The extension of Raymond Avenue S.W. includes a portion of the wetland on the west side of this site. Raymond Avenue should not be developed in this location if efforts to preserve a portion of the wetland are successful. The property to the west of the wetland can be adequately served by Valley Parkway and S.W. 19th Street. Unit B -- East Valley Wetlands Much of the value of this wetland is based upon its relationship to Unit A. Because of LID 314 and the development of S.W. 19th Street, the value of this wetland unit will be diminished. • -21- i. The landfill controls in General Recommendation 4 apply to this property. No speculative fill should be allowed; when development does occur, only 50% of the site should be filled; the remainder should be left In its natural condition. These regulations should apply until the ESWP is constructed. 2. If S.W. 19th Street is not constructed, this right-of-way should be abandoned and a portion of this wetland combined with the Unit A pond. Orlllia Pond This heavily used pond lies directly in the path of the proposed P-I channel. I. Until such time as the site is incorporated into the ESWP, no development should be allowed. Unit C -- East Valley Wetlands An active landfill operation Is in progress on this site. Therfore, few opportunities exist to preserve portions of the wetland in a natural condition. I. If the wetland is not entirely filled within the period of the Special Permit, the City should then re-examine the value of this wetland and the possibilities for preservation. Sarinobrook Wetland This wetland should function as a greenbelt, as a natural stormwater detention area, and as wildlife habitat. I. On those properties between Talbot Road South and SR 167, the City should require that development be clustered on uplands. This will protect the natural functioning of the wetlands and preserve the viewshed from the hillside. 2. Landfill should not be allowed within the wetlands for the purpose of enlarging the developable acreage of a property. Developments adjacent to the wetland should incorporate natural storrnwater detention within the wetland rather than excavating a detention basin. 3. The Comprehensive Plan Greenbelt designation includes a portion of this wetland along SR 167 and Springbrook Creek. The Comprehensive Plan should be amended to expand the greenbelt to cover most of the wetland. Unit F -- East Valley Wetlands This wetland is presently of only moderate wildlife value. As a complement to the Renton Wetlands to the west, however, this unit could be very valuable. I. The recommended landfill controls should apply to this wetland unit. When development of this property does occur, an open space buffer along Springbrook Creek should be provided. 2. If possible, the City should condition the development of this site on preservation of the unfilled wetland south of the Renton twenty acre wetland. -22- Unit E -- East Valley Wetlands This site currently provides medium value wildlife habitat and open space. A few large cottonwoods along Springbrook Creek are the most valuable natural elements of the site. I. Any future development of the site should be conditioned upon the retention of the large cottonwood trees and a suitable buffer along Springbrook Creek. _ r MANAGEMENT GUIDELINES For the wetlands of the City of Renton to have any substantial wildlife value, they must possess a variety of habitat components, including open water, internal screening vegetation such as cattails, waterfowl food plants such as polygonum, and edge brush and trees having cover and/or songbird habitat value such as willows or dogwoods. The extensive wetlands of pure stands of cattail or reed canary grass common in Renton have limited wildlife value in their present state. Past studies of Green River Valley wetlands and proposals for wetlands management have centered around the East Side Watershed Project. Wetlands mitigation for that watershed project has emphasized waterfowl almost to the exclusion of other forms of wildlife, although fisheries have also been considered. For the purposes of this wetlands inventory and evaluation, all wildlife are considered, birds are given emphasis, and waterfowl are given prominence. It is beyond the scope of this project to design management guidelines for the various wetlands -- units, but certain general guideline suggestions are In order. It is important to remember that local topography and land use should influence the design of specific management landscaping and operations procedures at each wetland chosen for protection or preservation. Peripheral screening in the form of fast growing deciduous trees (e.g., alders, willows, cottonwoods) and compatible brush (e.g., willows, dogwoods) would serve multiple purposes. Vegetation strips such as this along uplands edges of wetlands provide habitat for songbirds, small mammals, and in some instances upland game birds. The strips can also function as barriers to human intrusion into the wetland, as well. as provide aesthetic features in an otherwise urban setting. The density of peripheral vegetation can be varied, depending on the degree of protection desired. Monospecific stands of cattails should be broken up by excavating circuitous channels and small pools throughout the cattail wetland. Some of the excavated material might be left on site adjacent to the channels and pools to create islands of slightly higher ground capable of supporting brush and small trees. These elevated areas could serve as potential nesting sites for some ducks. Portions of the excavated pools should be planted with aquatic species of high waterfowl and genera(avian food value, e.g., polygonums, potamogetons, or bulrushes. Reed canary grass has little wildlife food value and is of doubtful value as a wildlife habitat, particularly when it occurs in extensive pure stands. Transitional wetlands dominated by canary grass should be sculpted into a generally lower topography to permit or promote more frequent flooding and, thus, a condition more suitable for true wetlands species. Circuitous open water channels and pools should be provided. Limited cattail plantings should be made for cover, as well as extensive plantings of aquatic food plants. -23- The question of vegetative succession does not appear to have been addressed by previous wetlands preservation investigations and proposals. From a limited search into present and historical vegetative patterns in the Green River Valley, as well as from field experience in other Puget Sound river valleys, It appears that cattail stands and open water habitats are relatively shortlived. Reed canary grass and cattails are both pioneer species which commonly become established in low, wet places that have been disturbed in some way. The normal patterns of vegetation succession, however, lead to brush swamp composed of willows, dogwood, spiraea, and others. Any management program for wetlands preservation and maintenance must recognize that changes of this nature are likely to occur over a period of fifty to one hundred years. Wetlands can be maintained in an early succession stage by periodic disturbance. The desired degree of human use of any preserved wetland should be clear from the beginning of any site-specific program. There is a big difference in the wildlife value of any natural area depending on whether it is regarded as a wildlife refuge (little or no human access and Intrusion; i.e., emphasis on wildlife), as a wildlife recreation area (wildlife and human use equally important), or as a natural setting public park (human use emphasized, with wildlife use secondary). In summary, the management plan for each wetland to be protected should be prepared Individually, taking into account topography, local land use, site hydrology, the wildlife species intended for the site, and the degree of human use to be allowed or encouraged. -24- Appendix II EVALUATION SHEETS Ia Wetiannd Unit: Black River Riparian Forest Location: Section 13 (T23N, R4E) ; South of BNRR, North of Earlington Golf Course size: 75tacres Zoning: G, small portions GS-1, R-2 , M-P 00,0.'rehennsive Plan Designation: Manufacturing Park Ownership: Alterra Corp. , First City Equities, CHG International Descriptive Characteristics The site is a mature hardwood riparian forest, typical of large riparian forests that formerly covered portions of Puget Sound floodplains. Vegetation Is characterized by old growth black cottonwood up to 7' dbh, mature Oregon ash, big leaf maple and willow. The site has been relatively undisturbed. The Oregon ash may be the most unique vegetational component, but the complex of mature hardwood species sets this site apart. The southern edge of the forest is traversed by the old Black River channel. Flooding is seasonal, although some areas have saturated soils year round. The ground surface is Irregular but relief Is only 5'-10'. In low areas standing water pools to some depth during the wet months, providing suitable waterfowl habitat. An old RR grade, which supports grasses and emergent wetland plants as well as open water, bisects the site from east to west. Wildlife is diverse. Songbirds and waterfowl are abundant at various times of the year. Black-tailed deer and red fox have been observed in recent years. The site also Includes a small pond north of the railroad tracks which is poor in water quality but has high waterfowl use. - Values - Ranking Matrix = High Middle Low 1 .

The site contains a mix of wetland types. To the YYP south where Panther Creek enters the wetland, there is a forested unit of cottonwood, willow and alder. Moving north, there is a wetland transition zone of phalaris and mixed grasses, followed by an emergent wetland, 3000' long, of predominantly cattails. This area is in early succession from cultivation-- farm ditches are still evident. North of the emergent wetland, two utility crossings cut the site. The rest of the wetland is mostly scrub-shrub with willow, spiraea, alder and dead snags dominant, interspersed with open water. The wetland is fed by Panther Creek to the south (partial flow), Renton Village drainage to the north, and runoff from the adjacent hillsides. Besides the open water pools, standing water is present during the wet season, and the soil is probably saturated most of the year. This is a diversity of habitats for wildlife. Waterfowl, which are limited to open water pools now, could be greatly Increased with proper management. - Values - Ranking Matrix = High Middle Low 1 . Adjacent Development El Likelihood 2.

CARRIED. • CORRESPONDENCE AND CURRENT BUSINESS Empire Estates Letter from First City Developments Corp. requested Council Phase II Sewer authorization for development of Phase II of the Empire Estates Empire Way property on Empire Way by connection of 23 acres to the City sewer. The letter stated the area is zoned RM 1800 by the county and is just outside the present city limits, however, city utili- ties serve Phase I which is completed. A letter from Acting Public Works Director Houghton was enclosed stating the city sewer has the capacity to serve the development, that the company has been advised policy issues arebeyond staff discretion. Councilman Trimm requested First City Development Corp. be advised of Council policy that property located outside City boundaries cannot be served with City sewers. Councilman Stredicke called attention to his letter to First City dated 4/1/81 advising of zoning and annexation procedures. Council advised concurrence. Tiffany Park Letter from Drew and Delores Newlands, 1668 Lake Young Way SE, School Walkway called attention to a Public Walkway located between the streets of Index Ave. SE and Lake Youngs Way SE for travel to Tiffany Park School by children.

In order to assist the Council 's consideration of policies and regulations for wetland areas, landfill and flood hazards, the Administration authorized the Planning Department on October 27, 1980, to prepare a Wetlands Study. The reconaissance level study which was prepared qualitatively ranks the significant wetlands remaining in the City. After identifying and mapping the wetlands, each was evaluated for its resource and habitat value. - Based upon the evaluation of the wetlands and existing policies and regulations of the City, a number of general and specific recommendations related to wet- land preservation and flood hazard protection were developed. Since the publication of the Wetlands Study, the Community Services Committee has held two public meetings to discuss the results and conclusions of the report. The Community Services Committee recommends that Council accept the Wetlands Study as a technical document evaluating the relative value of wetland areas of Renton, except for those general and specific recommendations contained on Pages 18-24. The Community Services Committee further recommends that the Wetlands Study be referred to the Planning Commission for consideration of developing a specific Wetlands Policy and/or regulations for the future use of wetlands within Renton.

As members of that Committee are aware, I have noted some concern about certain aspects of the Study, the areas that it has covered, and some of its conclu- sions. At the last Committee meeting, a recommendation was forwarded to you to accept the Study, however, to delete pages 18 through 24 or the specific recom- mendations until further study is complete. At that meeting, the Acting Planning Director presented his concepts for a more detailed analysis of the Wetland issues, including the history of attempts to acquire Wetlands in the City and a budget analysis with some analysis of the costs of each property. This type of process seems to be very appropriate and I would support those recommendations and anticipate a time-line of six to nine months to review this matter. However, specific recommendations contained in the report are so definitive at this time as to potentially changing the Com- prehensive Plan, the Zoning Code, and the Shorelines Management designations for several properties without proper hearings or review of the history of this study process and the potential for the City to actually acquire these properties. I am also concerned that the properties are a significant reversal of previous po- sitions that the City Planning Commission/Council has taken on these priority items. As you are aware, there is significant history involved in land use planning that relates to this subject, such as the 1965 Land Use and Comprehensive Plan, the 1973 Shorelines Management Master Program, the 1975 Green River Comprehensive Plan and companion EIS, and the 1978 Park and Recreation Plan. As you are keenly aware, the 1974 and 1975 Planning Commission took an extensive look at alterna- tives for green belts to cover these Wetland areas. Planning Commission votes and Council votes are a matter of record, culminating in an adopted Compre- hensive Plan. This was further reviewed in. the 1978 Park Plan and in decisions by the Council of the Hall in attempting to fund Wetland areas in the Orillia Industrial area and in the Cedar River Wetlands areas. It appears that the . staff has not included a documentation of the history of those decisions and further, has changed, fairly significantly, the priorities that were before the City on previous occasions.

We would like to see an inclusion of those previous decisions and some detailed analysis of the economic impact of attempts to acquire these properties on the City's capital improvements and budgetary processes. We may all agree that the Wetlands may be an important part of the urban fabric, however, the City's budgetary propensity to acquire and preserve these areas has been somewhat lacking in the past as with other municipalities when faced with numerous priorities and needs in the annual budget and in capital improvements programs. Detailed assessment of the cost of this program and the impact on budgetary processes seems very appropriate. We would therefore, recommend that any action to move this Study forward, should be with the proviso that pages 18 through 24 be deleted until such time as this Study is more complete.

Schwarz Vice President Agrimedics ACM, -Inc . 2112 Third Avenue Suite 304 Seattle , WA 98121 Dear Mr . Schwarz : Enclosed is a packet of information based on our supplemental research dealing specifically with the City ' s policy framework relating to wetland preservation . It includes (a ) the report titled " Existing Local Policies and Mechanisms Relating to Wetland Preservation" and ( b ) twelve sketch maps which summarize , in a graphic form , the land use and development issues of relevance to this study . It is in direct response to OCD ' s request for further study into the City ' s current land use policies and their relationship to wetlands preservation , as indicated in my letter of March 18 . I hope that it is of assistance to you and your staff in further refining . the concepts for mitigating measures and the policies , or changes in policies , which might be required to implement them. It is quite possible that we misinterpreted the relationship of City policies to wetlands management and assumed that the -City ' s overall wetlands policy , minimal as it is , was readily apparent to both of us . I further assumed that my letter of December 8 , in which I recom- mended areas needing further emphasis in the study , was sufficient in providing a final policy direction to you. and your staff. If either is the case_,_ I sincerely hope that this information will alleviate any problems and allow you to complete your supplemental research . 4 Herbert J . Schwarz , Vice President Agrimedics April 9 , 1976 Page Two I hope that you will contact me immediately , if you have any further questions or comments upon reviewing this information . Very truly your , 0/1104, 7, Ffr77 "Pr/James L Magstadt Asst P anning Director JLM : RHB :wr Enclosures cc : E . E . Lonergan , President G . Y . Ericksen , Planning Director EXISTING LOCAL POLICIES AND MECHANISMS ' RELATING TO WETLAND PRESERVATION SCS Provisions To compensate for the expected loss of wetland habitat upon development of the proposed Watershed Projects , the Soil Conservation Service , in conjunction with the Green River Flood Control District , determined that jurisdictions benefiting from the project should agree with certain provisions . On June 3 , 1974 the City of Renton adopted Resolution No . 1923 agreeing , with other valley communities , to those provisions which include : a ) acquisition of at least 110 acres of suitable wetland habitat within the Project area , b ) in granting develop- ment permits , to require a landscape plan which considers wildlife and aesthetic values , c) in granting development permits , to require that no less than two percent (2% ) of each site be managed for wildlife preservation , d) requiring that all land not used immediately be planned and managed for wild- life until developed , e) preserve or replace existing wildlife habitat along affected channels , -FY provide fish passage through structural measures deemed necessary and g) adopt and enforce a land use plan ( policy) consistent with regional land use policy . Green River Valley Comprehensive Plan In compliance with the provisions of Resolution No . 1923 , and recognizing the increasing pressure for industrial develop- ment , the City began the process of revising its Comprehensive Plan in the Green River Valley . On June 25 , 1975 the Renton Planning Commission adopted the proposed Green River Valley Comprehensive Plan as the City ' s statement of policies regarding future land use , circulation , community facilities and open space in the valley . • Local Policies Relating to Wetland Preservation Page Two The primary land use designated in the Plan is manu- facturing park development . This use is defined as having light and certain compatible heavy industrial uses with selected commercial uses in a manufacturing park development providing adequate setbacks , landscaping , functional and aesthetic design , compatibility with adjacent uses , open space and wildlife habitat. The proposed amendment designates approximately 250 acres within the valley as greenbelt , the majority of which occurs in the study area . The Plan states that some green- belts are intended for multiple use including wildlife habitat , maintenance roads , recreation , bicycle or pedestrian trails , landscaping and visual buffers . Other greenbelts are in- tended solely for wildlife preservation . Of those areas designated as greenbelt on the Plan , approximately 130 acres occur in areas designated as wetlands by the Soil Conservation Service and subsequently identified in this study . The City is now undertaking to purchase or _have donated to it most of these wetlands . Acquisition by purchase and donation are currently the primary methods being used by the City for retain- ing wetlands and will be discussed further in separate sections . Zoning The Zoning Code is the basic instrument for implementing the goals , objectives and policies of the Comprehensive Plan . Tire existing patte-rn of zoning in the study area reflects the transition from policies of the existing Comprehensive Plan to those of the proposed amendment . The result is a mix of established zones allowing heavy and light industry , commercial and business uses , manufacturing park and those being held in open space under a general use designation . ' ocal Policies :,elating to Wetland Preservation Page Three Following is a summary of the standards , requirements and conditions for each zone with particular attention to their relation to current or future retention of wetlands or wildlife habitat . Heavy Industry District (H-1 ) Uses permitted within this district include manufacturing , assembling and processing , bulk handling of products , large amounts of storage , warehousing and heavy trucking as specified and listed in the ordinance. The required front yard setback is a minimum 60 feet with the initial 10 feet contiguous to the street to be landscaped . The minimum side yard setback is 20 feet . A minimum rear yard setback of 20 feet is re- quired only when the H-1 district abuts a non-industrial or manufacturing park district. There are no additional require- ments for landscaping or open space retention . Though setback and open space requirements are minimal under this zone , there is some potential for utilizing side and rear setbacks . In conjunction with similar adjacent development , the 20 foot side setback would result in a 40 foot area between buildings which might act as a drainage course or access corridor for wetland species , though its viability would be questionable . The front yard setback of 60 feet provides some potential , although these areas are usually devoted to access , parking and landscaping for the building itself . Light Industry District (L-1 ) Uses permitted in this zone include those allowed in the business ( B-1 ) designation plus light industrial activities involving manufacturing , assembling and processing , handling and creating of products , research and technological processes and other uses specified or listed in the ordinance . —,Local Policies _Relating to Wetland Preservation Page Four No setbacks are required under this zone except where a parcel ' s side lot line is adjacent to a residential district . In that case , minimum side setbacks would range from 5 feet- to 10 feet , side setbacks abutting a street would be a minimum of 10 feet , front setbacks would vary from a minimum 10 feet to 20 feet and rear setbacks a minimum of 20 feet to 25 feet., depending on the requirements of the adjacent residential zone . There are no provisions for landscaping or open space retention . Unless development within this zone occurs adjacent to a residential district , there are no conditions under which a reasonable amount of open space , wetlands or access corridors could be retained through setbacks . Even when the light industrial zone is adjacent to a residential district , the combined maximum side setback of 20 feet and rear setback of 50 feet would be of marginal value as drainage course or access corridor because of fences or landscaped or structural barriers normally occurring on the residential property line . Business District (B-1 ) Although uses in this zone are limited to smaller businesses and some public buildings , the setback require- ments are the same as those for the L-1 zone . General Classification District (G) The purpose of this classification is to regulate the use of land in generally undeveloped areas or in areas not _ otherwise zoned following annexation in order to prevent the uncontrolled or scattered intrusion of business , industrial or similar uses . The only uses permitted in this zone are suburban residential under the R-1 , R-2 , SR-1 , SR-2 and S- 1 classifications . The minimum required lot size is 35 ,000 square feet . Setbacks are the same as those for the R-1 classification : 5 foot side setback , 20 foot front setback and 25 foot rear setback . Policies `elating to Wetland Preservation Page Five When the City of Renton annexed that portion of the Green River Valley containing the study area in 1959 , most of the land received this G designation . With property --- values rising as a result of increasing peripheral develop- ment , large lot residential development permitted under the classification became economically infeasible . Thus , land designated G was temporarily retained as open space until the process of rezoning to various industrial or business began . At the present time approximately 356 acres within the study area remain. under the G classification . Of these , 200 acres are wetlands identified by this study or the Soil Conservation Service . 106 of these 200 acres have been designated or are being studied for acquisition by the City . The significance of this zone for wetlands is that the City can maintain areas under study for acquisition or dedication in this classification until final decisions on preservation strategy are made . Once acquired , wetlands can be maintained in these zones . In effect , the G zone is an open space zone in the valley . A recent example is the 20 acre wetland parcel acquired through donation from Burlington Northern and retained in the G classification as the surrounding property was rezoned to M-P . Similar acquisition or dedication of other open space under the General Classification District is one means of providing an initial system of wetlands to meet the pro- visions of the Comprehensive Plan and Soil Conservation Service . This , in turn , could be the basis for a larger interconnected system. Local Policies Relating to Wetland Preservation Page Six Manufacturing Park District (M-P ) The purpose of this classification is to create industrial areas of high operational , developmental and environmental standards . Uses permitted are generally those in the Light Industry District ( L-1 ) . The minimum front setback is 60 feet with a 10 foot landscaped area adjacent to the street . Setbackson all other property lines are a minimum 20 feet . If any side of the development is adjacent to a residential district , a 1.0 foot landscaped buffer or screen is to be maintained along the property line . Outside storage of materials is to be screened by a view-obscuring fence not less than 5 feet in height. Other performance standards relate to noise , smoke , odors , toxic gases , vibration and glare . The M-P criteria provide the most environmentally sensitive development standards of the three existing in- dustrial classifications . At the present time , the City ' s land use policy is to seek the eventual rezone of most of the land within the study area to the Manufacturing Park designation . However , even though these criteria promote standards of industrial development which are fundamentally improved over other zones , there are few existing or addi - tional requirements of significant benefit to wetland preservation . Again , the' 20 foot side setback , when combined with that of adjacent development could under certain conditions , provide drainage sources or wetland corridors . However , the ordinance allows this sideyard area to be used for parking or loading areas , if desired by the developer. Although a 10 foot landscaped area is called for adjacent to residentail districts, it is doubtful whether this circumstance Local Policies Relating to Wetland Preservation Page Seven will occur in the valley , as most previous residential districts have been converted to industrial uses . The inclusion of criteria for noise , vibration and glare does have some potential for mitigating the impact of these in- dustrial developments on adjacent wildlife habitat . Bulk Storage Regulations A recent amendment to the Zoning Code are the Bulk Storage Regulations . Bulk storage refers to the holding or stockpiling on land of materials and/or products according to the followir_g conditions : 1 ) in a bulk form or in bulk containers , 2 ) under protective cover excluding use of the same space by other materials , 3 ) in sufficient numbers such that they are the principal use on the site , 4) where the major function is collection and/or distribution of materials or products rather than processing , and , 5 ) the presence of bulk containers or stockpiles for a substantial period of a year. Such uses may include automobile holding depots , grain or feed silos , sand and gravel yards , scrap or junk yards , tank farms , lumber mills , foundaries and other uses . The City ' s intent is to allow such facilities in a location and manner as to be compatible with adjacent pro- perties . Further , the City recognized a loss in air quality in the Green River Valley and the potential for its continuing deterioration . Uses which may adversely affect air quality are included under the category of " recognized higher risk" , a-1 o-n-g with the -storage of other—flammable , ex-plosive , blasting— or toxic agents and other activities considered to be of high hazard . Stricter performance standards are applied to these uses . -',,ocal Policies 'elating to Wetland Preservation Page Eight The maximum height of all storage containers and stock- piles is 40 feet . All structures and bulk storage are to be located at least 60 feet from all public rights -of-way , wildlife habitat , public areas , parks and waterways including rivers , lakes , streams and drainage channels . In all other instances , the minimum setback is 20 feet . An opaque screen or fence of minimum 5 feet in height or at least 25 percent of the height of bulk storage containers or stockpiles is to be located at least 20 feet from all property lines . All areas between the property lines and the screen are to be landscaped . The ordinance also establishes a standard for surface water drainage .. Its purpose and intent is to protect property from damage and loss due to flooding , erosion and deposition caused by the adverse alteration of natural flow patterns and rates . It further provides development practices which recognize the value of natural water courses . If the use or industry involves the storage of hazardous materials , the ordinance requires that it not impose economic or operational limitations upon neighboring property or facilities . Modifications which are deemed necessary are to be made to both characteristics of the industry and the site plan to prevent these limitations . Further , the Planning Commission may require any applicable bulk standard to be up to 50 percent more strict than specified in order to mitigate a potential problem. In addition to hazardous materials , the ordinance establishes performance standards for toxic substances , gaseous and particulate emissions , liquid waste , sound , light and glare . ) Local Policies Relating to Wetland Preservation Page Nine The implications for wetland preservation in this new ordinance are potentially the most significant in the Zoning Code . It is the only section of the code which specifically mentions wildlife habitat and implicitly recognizes the potential impact upon it of certain industrial activites . The 60 foot setback from any water course or wildlife habitat in conjunction with performance standards for noise , light and glare could substantially mitigate potential disturbances when industrial uses are located adjacent to natural areas . Although not specific on desired types of surface water drainage , the ordinance recognizes two significant factors : a ) the relationship between poor site development or drainage practices and subsequent damage to surrounding lands and , b ) the benefits of maintaining natural water courses in their original state . Since drainage is a critical element in the management of wetlands , this standard can compliment a pro- gram of preservation . Further , the sections establishing requirements for setbacks , drainage and other special characteristics are minimum standards and statements of intent . The Planning Commission can , when a clear and compelling need is established , make the applicable standards stricter. Again , this option would be of greatest value when making development or location decisions in the context of an overall system of wetlands , drainage courses , or access corridors . While possessing the greatest potential for wetlands An the _Zoning Code , t h i s amendment is , at -the—present time , of limited value . Its standards can only be applied when it is determined that a particular industrial use is or contains a bulk storage facility . It is currently difficult to anticipate the location and extent to which such facilities might locate in the valley . Thus , the elements in the ordinance -- Local Local Policies Relating to Wetland Preservation Page Ten which might benefit wetlands can only be applied increment- ally , as development occurs, unless these or similar standards are extended to the zoning regulations for the remaining industrial or other uses locating in the valley . Existing Easements Numerous easements of varying use , width , configuration and ownership cross the study area . They include water mains , sewer lines , oil pipelines , dedicated street rights-of-way and existing or future drainage channels . While not actually constituting City policy , they are physical features in the valley which might be integrated into future preservation schemes . Several have some potential as additional wetlands , access corridors or trails . Seattle Water Pipeline : This is a 30 foot easement which , in the study area , runs adjacent to the north side of the proposed SCS P-9 channel right-of-way and west into the Longacres property . If this easement is not contained within the ultimate P-9 right-of-way , it could conceivably be used as additional habitat or as a segment of a pedestrian or bicycle trail system . Proposed SCS Channels : At the present time , the proposed P-channel rights-of-way in the study area have more potential for inclusion ina system of pedestrian or bicycle trails than for use as additional wetland habitat . This is because SCS design standards call for P-channel . banks to be rip-rap and clear of vegetation in order to achieve desired runoff velocities . Local Policies Relating to Wetland Preservation Page Eleven Springbrook Creek : This is a 40 foot easement con- sisting of portions of the original Springbrook Creek and the more recently engineered drainage channel running south to north through the study area . It is currently managed by Flood Control District 1 . The City has proposed increasing the easement to 120 feet and purchasing it , recognizing its present value as wetland and potential for assuring a flow of water into the 20 acre wetland parcel recently donated by Burlington Northern . In addition , the City has gained a two year option to purchase an additional 39 acres adjacent to the original 20 acres which would also be served by the Springbrook Channel . The role of the portion of the creek north of the acquired wetland parcel is still under study by the City . It is recognized that its acquisition would create a continuous wetlands corridor and natural drainage course through the valley . However , any further plans for this portion of the channel will be dependent upon the extent to which the SCS Watershed Projects are developed . The proposed P-9 channel will intersect Springbrook Creek in this area . Acquisition Through Purchase Outright purchase is potentially one of the city ' s primary mechanisms for preserving wetlands in the Green River Valley. To date , no wetlands have been acquired in this manner . However , the City has obtained a two year option on the purchase of 39 acres adjacent to the 20 acre parcel of wetlands south of the Mobil Oil facility recently donated by Burlington Northern . Other parcels presently under study for _ Local Policies Relating to Wetland Preservation Page Twelve purchase include the proposed 120 foot Springbrook Creek easement south of the 59 acre parcel , a 6 acre site in the northeast corner of the study area near East Valley Road , and approximately 65 acres adjacent to the east side of the Valley Freeway north of Southwest 43rd Street . All of these purchases are being undertaken pursuant to SCS provisions and policies in the Green River Valley Compre- hensive Plan . However , the major barrier continues to be a shortage of funds for these purchases . Within existing fiscal constraints , purchase of the entire 145 acres of wetlands cur- rently under study will be difficult without supplementary funds . For this reason , federal , state and other sources of dunding are being investigated . The city has also established the Green River Wildlife and Greenbelt Preservation Fund to receive funds solely for that purpose . Acquisition Through Donation This is the only mechanism through which the city has , so far , been able to acquire wetlands . It consisted of the donation of a 20 acre parcel immediately south of the Mobil Oil facility by Burlington Northern . In the near future the city may be able to acquire additional wetlands by this means . Since the legal and financial variables involved in this procedure are consider- able , it is difficult to speculate on the extent of further donations . Although this mechanism is financially the most attractive , the city will most likely have to rely on outright purchase in the majority of future acquisitions . Other Mechanisms Acquisition Through Eminent Domain This is the right of a government , in this case the City , to acquire private property for public use or benefit upon pay- ment of just compensation . This differs from the previously Local Policies Relating to Wetland Preservation Page Thirteen discussed method of outright purchase in that wetlands acquired by that means are done so through negotiation with the property owner and on a. more or less voluntary basis . Eminent domain would allow the city to declare that it is in the public interest to acquire certain tracts of designated wetlands and then pro- ceed to do so , with compensation paid to the owner . Two considerations arise in this case . The first as stated previously , is the city ' s lack of money with which to make any considerable purchases of wetlands unless alternative funding sources are found . The second is the legal aspect . Historicall-y , cities have acted under their power of eminent domain to acquire property for schools , public housing , public buildings , streets , transit and parks . The courts have been liberal in interpreting and authorizing these actions because eminent domain , unlike the tax and police powers , is the one public power affording compensation as a requisite of its exercise . Thus , the city could most likely proceed on this course based on the acknowledged public purpose of wetlands preservation and the benefits to be derived . However , such action cannot be based on vague or arbitrary standards and pro- cedures . They must rely on clearly defined plans , policies and procedures in order to meet the test of judicial review . Conditional Approval of a Subdivision , Rezone , or Filling/Grading The city ' s subdivision regulations state that dedication of land to any public body may be required as a condition of sub- division approval . Under this provision , the city could require dedication of lands or the granting of easements for wetlands or related uses as a condition for approval . Most of the property in the study area has been rezoned to currently developable uses but few parcels have been submitted for platting . So the sub- division process remains as one of the more flexible mechanisms still to be utilized in retaining wetlands . Local Policies Relating to Wetland Preservation Page Fourteen Although the zoning code does not specifically authorize the city to require the dedication of land for public use as a condition of approval , such conditional approvals are commonly used . The provisions in the code are considered to be the minimum for promoting public health , safety and welfare . There- fore , requiring the granting of an easement or dedication of land for wetlands or a related use as a condition of approval , when used reasonably and with due process , can be considered a valid exercise of the city ' s police power . The City ' s Mining , Excavation , and Grading Ordinance authorizes city departments to modify or impose reasonable con- ditions when considering applications or actions covered by the ordinance . These actions include the filling and grading activities which are being conducted in the valley . The signifi - cance of conditional control over such activities for wetlands is the relationship of final grading and filling to the overall system of drainage and , in turn , the wetland communities which it supports . Successful timing and placement of fill will ultimately affect any interconnected system of wetlands . It should be emphasized again that these mechanisms can be utilized most effectively , from a planning standpoint , if applied in the context of a well defined plan and set of pro- cedures for wetland preservation in the valley . It is also critical in the legal sense , as the constitutional limits to . the use of zoning or other forms of land use regulation for open space preservation or growth control are still unresolved . Judicial review in cases dealing with environmental or land use controls is being increasingly focused upon the extent to which agencies are acting upon established and valid sets of regulatory measures and procedures . Local Policies Relating to Wetland Preservation Page Fifteen Summary and Conclusions This section has discussed the set of policies and other mechanisms currently available to the city which are considered to be most feasible for retaining or protecting wetlands in the Green River Valley. All operate or exist within the police and regulatory powers originally granted to the city by the State of Washington . They can be summarized as follows : 1 . Soil Conservation Service Provisions/City Resolution No .' 1923 a . Acquisition of at least 110 acres of wetlands - within the Watershed Projects area by partici - pating communities . b . Two percent of each developed site managed for wildlife preservation . 2 . Green River Valley Comprehensive Plan a . Designated greenbelt . b . Policies for wildlife preservation . 3 . Zoning Ordinances--Setbacks , Landscaping , Open Space , and other Standards Relating to Wetlands In : a . Heavy Industry District (H-1 ) b. Light Industry District (L-1 ) c. Business District (B-1 ) d . General Classification District (G ) e . Manufacturing Park District (M-P ) f. Bulk Storage Regulations 4 . Existing Easements a . Seattle Water Pipeline b . Proposed SCS Channels c . Springbrook Creek Local Policies Relating to Wetland Preservation Page Sixteen 5 . Acquisition Through Purchase 6 . Acquisition Through Donation 7 . Other Mechanisms a . Acquisition Through Eminent Domain b . Conditional Approval of a Subdivision , Rezone , or Filling/Grading These policies provide , to a greater or lesser extent , a range of mechanisms or techniques for wetlands preservation . Each one , separately applied , can provide some degree of wet- land retention_ or protection from adjacent development . To date , the most successful of these have been the donation or negotiated purchase of designated wetlands under the provisions and authority of the Soil Conservation Service and Green River Valley Comprehensive Plan . Both are most effective in acquiring the larger tracts of valuable wetlands . Based on findings in this study , however , it is reasonable to conclude that , while these large tracts are critical to preservation , they will not attain their most productive state in an industrial setting if maintained independently of one another . Merely retaining large tracts of wetlands without adequate management may only duplicate the accidental preser- vation of these communities which , in the valley , resulted from numerous fill and development activities . As noted in the discussion of biotic resources , this type of preservation seems to work only in the short run . One of the principal wildlife management activities is managing habitat . For wetland communities , this involves con- trolled water levels to maintain plant growth . Likewise , non- migratory terrestrial animals require surface corridors of circulation and access in order for their population to be enhanced and maintained . Local Policies Relating to Wetland Preservation Page Seventeen When the current set of local policies and mechanisms affecting wetlands were reviewed with respect to these basic requirements , it was found that most can only be applied incrementally or on a short-term basis and are not oriented to the ultimate creation of a system of wetlands in the valley . Even current acquisition activities reflect only minimal con - sideration of an overall system of connected wetlands . Although the comprehensive plan designates some wetlands as greenbelt , it is not in the context of an overall system. Its policies provide only for their continued preservation . Since provisions and , standards in the zoning , subdivision , and filling/grading ordinances can_ only be applied as development takes place , the absence of an overall plan for wetlands in the context of future industrial development prevents maximizing their use to establish or maintain an interconnected system. In short , the City ' s policy with respect to wetlands preservation consists of acquistion by purchase or donation of major wetland tracts based solely upon Soil Conservation Service designations and policies in the Green River Valley Comprehensive Plan . Beyond these actions there is no policy framework which recognizes or addresses the relationship between the city ' s numerous landuse regulatory mechanisms and wetland preservation and management. �+(p j �+ da R fl , =11 t tmw g div -1 oz i,t,.,:l.tka Jo Ne;s_,,'‘1‘5,01 1 I i t !

The Railway Company is agreeable to donating the 20 acres to the City by a deed of conveyance, the form of which will be negotiated between our Attorney W. L. Taylor and your attorney, Mr. Shellan. I have asked that Mr. Taylor contact Mr. Shellan as soon aspossible so that a form of deed could be agreed to and forwarded to St. Paul for execution prior to the City Council meeting on February 23. Concerning our discussion regarding additional acreage that, may be available for expansion of the open space area, as I explained to you we are reluctant to giving up any more acreage., but if the City feels that it needs additional acreage in order to develop the property in the best manner possible, the Railway Company would be agreeable to selling to the City an additional 37 acres for a consideration of $10,000 per acre "as-is" without any improvements whatsoever . This offer is subject to final approval by the Board of Directors of Burlington Northern Inc. which is always required in a transaction of this nature. As discussed I will determine if the Burlington Northern would be agreeable to optioning the additional 37 acres for up to one year to allow you to raise funds for the purchase of the property.

Renton, Washington 98055 Dear Councilman Grant, Any assistance the PSCOG can offer the City concerning the matter discussed in your letter of January 15 will be happily provided. After we first discussed the possibility of the City's acquiring the wetlands in question, I assigned Mr. David Kalberer and Mr. Leroy Jones of our staff the task of researching possible funding sources. A number of agencies have been contacted. A few of the available programs of which we are aware offer possible opportunities that could be explored further. Mr. Jones, Mr. Kalberer, or I would be pleased to meet with you personally, or with the Community Development Committee on what we have learned, and I have so informed the Council secretary. {y uL on-ts, i 1 \d—rt Kask Executive Director January 27 , 1976 Dear Mr. Grant, I have drawn a map of the area that we are concerned about, showing areas that the hawks use for perching while hunting for food. The whole area is used by the hawks to gather small mammals from the fields. Reducing the hunting area to 80 acres will cause a number of the hawks to leave the area and may affect a non-use by all hawks, only time will tell. The area that is being proposed for preservation is bounded by the present channel and the Shell filled property on three sides with the proposed Oaksdale Avenue on the other. I cannot determine the exact route of Oaksdale so we can only hope that it will lie on the westerly side of the marsh and not through it. It is hard for me to understand why the city will issue fill permits on land such as this when there are no plans to develop the area. Filling on speculation is a real waste of marsh areas, and we would consider it a questionable planning process. The trees over 35 ' feet in height should be saved during the filling process on adajacent lands. If we can be of any further help, please let us know.

' , The most likely, source .of federal funding is through thr "Land and Water, Conservation Fund" administered by the Bureau of Outdoor Recreation (BOR) . I know that former mayor Garret has already talked to . this agency with seemingly little success. • But if the city and/or the state agree to pay part of the tab and ifa master plan for .development can be presented, the chances of federal help are improved. The Cityof Bellevue along with the State Parks Dept. and . BOR cooperated to -pruchaser parts of Mercer: Slough. Seattle;. is using B5R funding in several of its parks projects. The /Land and a'aater Conservation Fund// is a major method of acquiring park or open space- land. The cityshould concentrate on perhaps developing a plan similar to Bellevue 's. . Because the: is so heavily- used and limitadr..there is com- petition for funding. . Tnia means any proposal submitted to them. by .the ; ci_ty must .be as well planned and show the greatest recreational and enviromental value. • y .. ' • I know there hasd:been some talk of possibly using Duck Stamp or other wildlife he it-at funds. -I don't thine:this - is feasable as these funds ar under guidelines and stipt- lations that probabily couldn' t ve met by the city or the site. Until recently. it . would seen that only state funding available was through matching funds. But the recent statement by the • State Parks Director indicating that his agency 'would be in- vestigating ways to. purchase or preserve open space in the Green River valley indicates a change in policy may be forth- - coming. Such a change could be a windfall for the city. Unfortunately it 'may .take some time •until w .1 now0 • • The ata to :-ai10 CorFLai S Si CIL is tho L Unci.• caharL;.; . with acquiring and administering wildlife habitat . They. also hold considerable influence .in the distribution of. ,federal funds for such purpizses. There : ire limiting factors though That discourage game dept. help-. Mainly. the aomparativly small size of the site and the lack of suitablity for hunting •of fishing. Do not: disqualify this agency though. Their expertise 'along can be of significant 'value. • In any program chosen local paryt,it s-ipation and support is the key that will make or break -your efforts, • The • city and its. citizens must demonstrate Lhdesire to acquire. the property for any plan to succeed. This means they must incurr at least some of the. Costs. One local option available is by raising the necessary funds thurigh revenue bonds as was done in Forward Thrust and 111,•ukwila to get Foster gulf course . Remembering Renton's recoid • (2) y • S of approving bond issues and school levys maybottIis won't be such an easy method. The next alternative is appropriations from the city' s general fund or perks budget. mother xabthod is an assesment added to the property tax, the receipts used for purchase of the land. This was approved by the legislature in about. 1971. As I recall though, all available millage is currently taken now and would probably require county • • action to effect a roappropriation of tax millage.• • The movement to preserve the Green River valley has- mainly' been associated with onviromental organization and • individuals. Citizen opposition was a key to blocking Shell Oil and to making the planning commission revise the com- . phrehonsive plan. . • . • I don't think it unfeasable that a grass roots moveiicnt could raise at least sosrio funding. •By no means Could or shotild such an effort provide the bulwark of the financing, but it could still be considerable. Organizations , such as • the Audobon Society can probably be counted on forssome support. "Nature Conservancy" could offer an interim solution. Their specialtyis to . r.uchase openaspace and enviromentally unipue land especially if it . is. threatened by loss to dove- lopment. Thet hold- it .until a goverment authority can raise the necessary funding and then divest title to that authority for costs incurred. 'here is one 'dither possivility of preservation that doesn't involve purchaseng the wetlands-. . This - . . (3) 1111 involves revising the cityJs shorelines master plan, designating this 4rca for consorvandy management. This was recently done by .the aeattle City Council fdr Kellogg Island in the Duvamish. auch a move bould recuire complicated legal or political manuveurine, I hope that this has been of help to you.

This entire issue can be ordered • from the Urban Land Institute, 1200 18th Street, N.W. Washington, D.C. 20036. Page 2 The authors of this article, Dallas Miner and Frank Schnidman, say, "Due in part to rising cost of open space acquisition, and to legal/ fiscal implications of the police power and 'takings' issues, munici- palities are looking for ways to allow land-market mechanisms to re- main fluid and, at the same time, plan for low-cost, open space preser- vation and/or protection of environmentally sensitive or historically interesting parcels of land. The TDR concept, on paper, appears to serve these ends." In looking at the Orilla Flats and other areas of critical concern where development could result in irreversible damage we hope you will see them as part of the total comprehensive land use plan for the City of Renton.

I N FLOOD WARNING PLAN VEING UPDATED A vital part of the Green River Basin Program and the Green River Management Agreement is maintaining a flood warning plan for the residents and industries in the Valley.Based upon input and discussions CORPS REGULATIONS GOVERN with Public Works officials in Auburn,Kent,Renton and Tukwila,the overall flood warning plan is being updated.In the interim,a notification WETLANDS process has been developed to provide the Valley cities with information about King County's flood warning and levee patrol operations.King In accordance with the federal Clean Water Act,wetlands adjacent to the County will notify the cities of expected flooding conditions,and advise Green River are under the jurisdiction of the Army Corps of Engineers. them when levees are being patroled.The cities will be encouraged to Placement of fill material in these wetlands requires a permit from the notify their own police departments and emergency service agencies so Corps.Though wetlands may be separated from the River by a dike or that businesses and residents with imminent flooding problems will be other man-made structure,they are still considered adjacent to the river assisted by their own city services.These interim procedures will be and subject to permit requirements.While the Seattle District Corps of evaluated and revised as necessary in the process of updating the flood Engineers does not regulate drainage ditches,natural tributaries that have warning program for the Green River Basin. been straightened are still considered part of the national waters of the Other activities geared toward updating the warning program and im- United States.(National waters include streams which empty into navigable proving flood emergency operations include a careful investigation of con- waterways,such as the Green River or Puget Sound.)The Seattle District ditions along the Green River,the installation of a satellite-linked stream Corps is now reviewing wetlands and fills adjacent to Springbrook Creek gage at Tukwila,and the addition of city staff and resources during flood and other drainage systems in Renton,Kent,Auburn and Tukwila.Anyone emergencies. proposing to place fill material in any wetland in the Green River Valley The channel investigation of the Green River was completed the second should first contact the Corps of Engineers regulatory branch at 764-3495 week of November, 1985.The existing methods and itineraries used by to determine if a Corps permit is required. levee patrols during flood events were documented.Also noted were specific maintenance problems of levee accesses that hamper the patrols. This report will be combined with the city resource lists to develop a flood warning plan with an enhanced level of service. The new gage at Tukwila is an important addition to river level monitor- ing and flood patrol operations.This satellite-linked gage uses telecom- munications to quickly and regularly transmit data to King County monitors.This decreases the lag between receiving information and directle - ing field activities.This gage and the Porter gage near Auburn continually monitor the river levels,and one serves as backup to the other,should a malfunction occur. We Can Answer Your Questions! City of Auburn FEMA SPONSORS RESTUDY OF GREEN Department of Public Works RIVER FLOOD PLAIN 931-3010 The Federal Emergency Management Agency(FEMA)has announced that City of Renton it has contracted CH2M Hill Northwest,Inc.,a consulting engineering Department of Public Works firm,to make a new study of flood hazard areas in the Green River Basin. This restudy is in response to two factors.First,land development has 235-2631 occurred on a rapid scale since the last FEMA study published in 1978; sites not previously identifed as subject to flooding may now present prob- King County lems.Secondly,the Green River levee system is substandard as measured against current specifications of the National Flood Insurance Program Surface Water Management (NFIP).The NFIP standards require that there be three feet of levee height 344-2619 above flood elevations. In many areas along the Green River the levees do not have this amount of"freeboard",so FEMA cannot consider the present levee system in their study. City of Kent The new study will redefine the location of floodplain lands throughout Department of Public Works the lower Green River Valley and reestablish required floodproofing eleva- tions. Flood insurance rates for buildings located in the new flood hazard 872-3383 areas are expected to change in response to the study findings.The draft flood plain study is scheduled to be finished in late 1986.After a series of City of Tukwila public meetings,and meetings with officials from the Valley cities and Department of Public Works King County,FEMA will request the local jurisdictions to adopt the new floodplain study and flood hazard maps.The entire process is expected to 433-1855 • be finished by the end of 1988. \'l\ , A J i Green River Basin Program Nerving Auburn, Kent, Renton, Tukwila and King County 701 Dexter Horton Building 711 3rd Avenue ISeattle, Washington 98104 206-344-2619 a:_ ._.'V •4s., 'p.-'•- , .+7 . -• 1, Cly fY3• •;t ,��2,-i..h�. _ ''.•�jb�'dc':sII••. �, wLaa.3Y'.A-.* .. fes.-.1,'-Ja.z ____ ___-.. ._} ,,',,,NEWS BULLETIN Renton City Council 2/6/84 Page five Old Business continued Utilities Committee Utilities Committee Chairman Mathews presented a report Springbrook Water- recommending concurrence in the request of the Public Works shed - Additional Department to file a "friendly condemnation" with Squire Property Construction Company to expedite the purchase of 13+ acres to Acquisition protect theiSpringbrook Springs watershed. continued This action would commit the City to the purchase price offer of $341 ,500.00, with $70,000.00 down (Forward Thrust monies secured by the City) , $100,000.00 due in 12 months (monies allocated in 1983 and 1984 Utilities budgets) , and the balance on a five-year contract at 12%.

Shinpoch, Mayor Members of the City Council 200 Mill Avenue South Renton, WA 98055 RE: EASTSIDE WATERSHED PROJECT Dear Mayor and Council Members: On July 1, 1982, the Basin Executive Committee for the Eastside Watershed Project will be holding a meeting to determine the status of the project. The Basin Executive Committee believes that this meeting should affirm the local sponsor participation in the SCS/P-1 Channel system, or that the participants should withdraw from further study and analysis of the project. During the last nine months, the property owners in the Phase I area between the Grady Way and the P-1 Pump Station have unsuccessfully attempted to devise a system for insuring the commencement of the Phase I construction. As a result of these circumstances and the prior City Council action indicating public funds would not be utilized for initiating the project construction, the Policy Development and Public Works Departments have prepared the following proposal as a response to the Basin Executive Committee's meeting of July 1st. These recommendations are as follows: 1. The Renton City Council is prepared to withdraw from the SCS/P-1 project as a result of the failure of the affected property owners to establish a reasonable mechanism for funding the local costs of this proposal. 2. The Renton City Council supports the development of an interagency flood emergency operating agreement to establish the criteria for pumping from the P-1 pump station during high flows on the Green River. Further, the Renton City Council is prepared to fund the estimated cost of the preparation of such an agreement to amount not exceeding $4,000. 3. As a result of the City's withdrawal from the SCS/P-1 project in its current form, the Renton City Council believes that the adoption of a conveyance design for flood waters from the Eastside Watershed area must be adopted. As an interim step, the City of Renton adopts the P-1 Channel alignment from S.W. 43rd Street northerly to the Black River Pump Station. Such alignment and flood storage capability shall be more precisely defined as a result of a hydrologic analysis which will follow the completion of the interagency flood emergency operating agreement as discussed in Point 2 above. Barbara Y. Shinpoch, Mayor Members of the City Council June 11, 1982 Page Two 4. As a result of the study identified in item three above, the City of Renton will establish flood storage regulations consisting of two components; first, relief from the existing required flood storage, and, second, on-site retention of future runoff from newly developed properties. Although no precise number has been established at this time, it would appear that approximately two cubic feet of water storage would be required for every one square foot of new property development on the valley.floor (those properties below elevation 25). 5. The City of Renton will adopt regulations providing that a property owner may determine whether to excavate the required flood storage area (item four above) on the site being developed or incrementally construct the P-1 system commencing at the P-1 pump station and progressing southerly towards S.W. 43rd. All spoils removal, utility relocations and street crossing requirements would be the responsibility of the proponent. 6. If. a storm drainage utility is instituted on a citywide basis, the City Council will consider providing a portion of the capital funding for the storm drainage system for the valley area to provide for some of the cost of wetland property acquisition and, . utility and street crossings of the drainage channels. The drainage utility may also be considered as the proper method for future funding of maintenance costs for these facilities. The Policy Development and Public Works Departments recommend that the six points noted above should be considered at a public meeting which we would suggest be held on Monday, June 21, 1982, in order to obtain public comment on these recommendations.

SO. RENTON,WASH.98055 A0947.ED SEPZ��O� BARBARA Y. SHINPOCH MAYOR MEMORANDUM DATE: JUNE 9, 1982 TO: Barbara Y. Shinpoch, Mayor Members of the City Council FROM: David R. Clemens, Policy Development Director RE: � � EASTSIDE WATERSHED PROJECT ISSUES AND OPTIONS The attached chart attempts to graphically portray the issues and responsibilities remaining related to the flood issues in the Green River Valley. The lower section provides some options for Council consideration to deal with these issues. It should be noted that over the last nine months, the property owners, City staff and other interested parties have attempted to develop a resolution to the flood hazard to the "Phase 1" area located generally between Grady Way and the pump station. As a result of these negotiations, commitments have been obtained from three out of the four property owners to provide dedication property for the P-1 Channel system. The remaining property owner currently has an application pending for rezoning of the property with an offer for dedication subject to favorable consideration of the rezone application. Although the land acquisition issues are of considerable importance due to their potential cost, no resolution has been provided for the problem of removal of spoils from the excavated channel areas, nor utility realignments or road reconstructions where required. The FEMA Flood Insurance LC. study which commenced late last fall is essentially complete, however, a new wrinkle has been introduced. The Corps of Engineers which has responsibility for control of the major flows of the Green/Duwamish River, has indicated that they cannot assure a permanent discharge point at the P-1 pump station for flood waters. As a result, the findings of the FEMA study have been put on hold until such time as King County, which has responsibility for operation of the pump station, makes a policy decision on the rate and timing of pumping flows from the pump station. • • - • Barbara Y. Shinpoch, h c Members of the City.0 cil - ' June 9, 1982 Page Two At least partially in response to this new determination by the Corps, King County is in the process of developing a proposal for a river management agreement to cover the five cities and the County and negotiate/arbitrate differences on the issues of discharge into the Green River from local tributaries. A draft proposal for developing a river management agreement is currently under review with a total cost of about $4,000 for each of the five participating local governments. The river management agreement process will have a significant impact upon the amount of flood hazard within the Renton area. A recent analysis completed for the rezone application for the Black River Forest found that different scenarios of pumping into the Green River could change the flood elevation at the pump station by an excess of five feet. Such a variation would have the effect of flooding (or not flooding) hundreds, if not thousands, of acres. ACTION/OPTIONS Although not listed in the available options on the attached summary sheet, a no action option does exist, however, the City's liability for having allowed additional development to occur without appropriate mitigating measures we believe would place the City in an untenable position of liability. Since the SCS project under any of the funding options which have been evaluated by the public agencies appears to be a dead issue, the remaining approach appears to require three issues resolved by the Council. 1. Establishment of an alignment for conveying flood waters to the P-1 pump station for discharge into the Green River. 2. Adoption of flood storage regulations sufficient to relieve the current 1,100+ acre feet of flood storage, while minimizing the effect of future flood runoff due to development within the basin. 3. Establishing a mechanism for providing incremental construction funding for the system along with future maintenance of the system once constructed. RECOMMENDATION 1. Adopt the SCS/P-1 Channel alignment from S.W. 43rd to the Black River pump station as the acceptable conveyance design for flood waters from the Eastside Watershed area. 2. Establish flood storage regulations consisting of two components; first, relief of the existing 1,100+ acre feet of required flood storage, and second, on-site retention of future runoff from newly developed properties. Although no precise number has been established, it would appear that approximately two cubic feet of water storage would be required for every one square foot of property developed. Barbara Y. Shinpoch, Ma, • • Members of the City Icil June 9, 1982 Page Three i • 3. Provide a mechanism whereby the property owner may determine whether to excavate the required flood storage (item 2 above) on the site being developed or to incrementally construct the P-1 system commencing at the P-1 pump station and progressing southerly to S.W. 43rd. All spoils removal, utility relocations and street crossing requirements would be at the responsibility of the proponent. 4. Institute a storm drainage utility to provide for both city-wide storm drainage improvement and maintenance, and specifically, to provide local construction costs for facilities such as street crossings for the flood control system. The utility would also be able to provide future maintenance cost for the facility as it is completed. The Basin Technical Committee will be meeting on Thursday morning on some of these subjects and Mr. Houghton or myself will be available to discuss any conclusions of that meeting. cc: Richard C.

Community Community Services Committee Chairman Reed presented committee Services Committee report explaining meeting with representatives of King County Housing and Housing and Community Development and members of the Planning Community Department 10/13/81 re status of the Neighborhood Strategy Development Area Program initiated in 1979 to provide special federal assis Program tance for rehabilitation of apartment buildings as part of a comprehensive effort to revitalize older neighborhoods. The program provides rental assistance payments to low income persons occupying rental units once the owner completes agreed upon build- ing improvements. The report stated the program will be entering its third and final program year; one project (the Bennett Apart- ments) totaling 24 units was rehabilitated first year; 25 units (Riverside Apartments and Cama Apartments) have received approval from HUD and are awaiting private financing. The letter explained King County has requested the City co-sponsor (with the City of Auburn) an application for joint funding in the amount of $130,604 to provide funds for program coordination and temporary relocation of tenants during construction. The Committee recommended the City endorse the application as the City's second priority for joint funds; the Multi-Service Center Project submitted in August will remain City's No. One priority for joint funds.

I was of the opionion that the majority of those attending were opposed to this project except for -the person that represented an Engeering firm. I voiced my objections publicly at the meeting and do so again with this letter. My wife,who is the President of our Company which is located at 200 S W 34th, Renton, Washington, and myself do oppose this Grieen River Basin project. Reasons for objections are; 1. We have a Drainage Commission that is alive and apparently doing a good job. A. You might increase their funds. 2. Your Commission has not looked into storage of water on the hillside. 3. Other people in this area are not participating in the assesments, this is discriminatory. 4. We are being taxed without a vote. 5. I believe that the ultimate users of this land should have to beautify their own lands and buildings. 6. At the meeting I believe the opening remarks were that it would save lives' How many lives have been lost due to floods? Also the damage was in of excess of 0,000,000, over what period of time. 7. The Audubon Society was not in favor of the project due to the fact that it does not inhance the bird and water fowls population. It would take several decades and a goodly amount of taxpayers money to bring these areas up to there specifications. Page 2 1 8. Our employees do not have the time to utlize these recreation facilities. Very few people are in the industrial area on week- ends. 9. To date our Company has lost $10,000 this year, therfore it is obvious we cannot afford an additional $10,000 a year expense. The bottom line is; Why do we need this when we have not had any terrible damaging floods and have not had a major or minor loss of lives. All the buildings that are being built in this area are several inches above the one hundred year flood plain now. We don't mind having our feet wet for a few days while the water is stored behind and in the present channels.

I had received a questionnaire, on which there were some questions about flood control, all of which I answered in the negative. I would be interested to know how many other people were willing to put up money for flood control? I believe as a taxpayer that I, and anyone else who answered the questionnaire has a right to ,'see,.the statistics produced by this questionnaire, and I would be very much suprised if many people had felt the need for such an expensive flood control project. Perhaps the answer to this problem is to put the project proposal on the next ballot, and publicize the facts of it:!,s: cost to the taxpayers. In this way everyone will be enabled to vote their preference. I don't see much need to turn the Green River into one more concrete canal. I can't recall the Green ever flooding, or even rising half- way up it' s banks in the entire time I' ve been living here. If flood control is strictly a matter of protecting the businesses that have built indiscriminately along the banks of the river, then I'm in favor of them footing the bill for any improvements made to the banks abutting their property. It would be more sensible to have a green belt zone extending 4 to 2 mile on either side of the Green to prevent runaway development along it' s banks. I 'm sure the King County and various city councils would oppose this. because they're only worried about the tax base and possible sources of revenue, not in a liveable surrounding area. I also resent the fact that every time a project, of this scale is contemplated, the first thing the state, county, or city involved does is go looking for Federal funding. This is like putting your hand in my pocket twice. I also feel you know that you can' t get a fair estimate on a job this way. - Few contractors stop to think that the fat plum that' s just fallen into their laps first came out of thier bankbook. Isn't it possible for the state to independently get these jobs done? The constant cry for "Federal funding" only makes the tax burden greater in the long run. I'm sorry to have to say this, but another thing that worries me is the way money allocated for certain things never gets spent on them, as in the case of those Forward Thrust funds and the funds that were supposed to be spent on boating facilities but which were diverted. I don' t feel the local, or Federal governments are capable of keeping track of the sums involved. Unlike a business, which has to make a profit, they seem to display a remarkable ability to lose money without getting a good return for it. I'm dead set against this proposed flood control project, and hope it will be dropped.

Dear Mayors and Councilman: Representatives of the Glacier Park Company/Burlington Northern Railroad Company were in.attendance at the public meeting held July 8, 1981 at . Renton, Washington regarding discussions on the East Side Green River Watershed Project (P-1 Channel). This is to.advise that Glacier Park Company/Burlington Northern Railroad Company is in favor of this project.. We would like to.recommend that strong consideration be given to enlarging the assessment area to.inciude the hills to.the east of the valley as this area contributes a large amount of the runoff that . eventually ends up on the valley floor.

I feel that we could probably stand the 100 year flood that every- one speaks of for a great deal less money than providing the valley drainage project. There is also some question in my mind whether or not the project is 100% fool-proof. Thanks for the questionaire, I would be interested in hearing what the results are. Yours Truly, .

BOX 700 (206) 232.7500 MERCER ISLAND, WA 98040 July 16 , 1981 / 4,-\\\ (PEA it- • A Lb � JUL 28 1981 • Subject: East Side Green River Watershed Project At the meeting July 8, 1981 at the Carco Theatre regarding • the East Side Green River Watershed Project, almost everyone who spoke was opposed to the project or certainly opposed to paying any part of the unbelievable price for it. I spoke at the meeting too and with the few minutes allotted, tried to add a few points as to why I also was opposed to the project. You, as elected officials, are. going to vote on the life or death of this project in a few weeks. I would like for you to consider my position and I hope ' I can be brief in saying what I believe to be true herein and why I am opposed to the project. I own property on the Valley floor in each of the four cities involved. I can only think of a few individuals who have More- invested, and if thatis the criteria ore at risk -than th y r.;..� ]�: -`..,?n me. I do not insure my property for earthquake damage because the risk of loss is not in proportion to the cost. I do not think the cost of this project, which is nothing more than a form of insurance, is proportional to the risk either. I can effect a huge amount of repairs from flood damage for $100, 000. 00 , my annual share of payments for this project will probably exceed this amount considerably. This is the equivalent of paying every year the cost of any conceivable damage I could sustain from flooding. I have been involved in construction on the Valley floor continually since 1955; therefore, my experience is from the past -and present. I have suffered flood damage and paid the price of repairs at two locations on two separate occasions for two different reasons, neither of which would have been -, -2- avoided by this project; but both could have been prevented-- the first by proper cleaning of ditches and culverts now in existence; the second by reasonable control of the Howard Hansen Dam water release. Did you know that water has never run over the spillway at the dam? Since the Hansen Dam and levee system containment of runnoff from the mountains has kept that water off of the Valley floor no flood water damage has occurred from the mountains except due to poor control of the release of water through the dam causing loss along the river banks. The Corps of Engineers is also in the process of a flood damage study and, as you surely know, we property owners and tax payers will be paying part of that project cost too. I truly feel that the flooding problems have to be corrected at the river. Our big problems and threats have always been from the water from the mountains. The Corps of Engineers points to the December, 1975 flood and flow reaching the top of the existing levees. The reason for the high water was because the flow was maintained at the maximum allowable 12000 C.F.S. for seven days until the reservoir • behind the dam was about empty on the assumption 'that there could be another storm back to back with the first. There wasn' t another storm and in the meantime Black River pumping was curtailed. Even with this type of tunnel vision in the Corps operation of the river we had no damage on the Valley floor, only along the river bank. I believe the present dam and levee system,with some refinements in the operation, could reduce the flood hazard to an acceptable level. What the Corps is doing is making the rest of us work around their present legal control of the river' s flow even if the sun is shining in the mountains. What would the results really be if the maximum flow was dropped to 9 or 10, 000 C.F.S. Drainage District #1 works on a very low budget and gets more done per dollar spent than most of us. If more was spent on keeping the present system clean and open to the right-of-way boundaries, I'm sure the system would be adequate. Several years ago we were allowed to relocate a drainage ditch which ran diagonally across our property. To get permission we had to give a new right-of-way and to construct the new ditch to the prescribed design. The land owners north of 180th (43rd in Renton) were allowed to hold grades 3' to 4 ° lower if the ditch were to be improved. Why can't they cut their own ditch as we did. It improved and made our land more valuable and the same applies to them. We also used the earth cut from the ditch for fill on site. -3- We have not built a building for years now that wasn' t to a floor elevation well above the 100 year flood level. We have spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on storm water retention systems and on-site storage. Is this all wasted money? This letter is addressed to you as a -member of the Committee. I request that my feelings be made known to the council members and others who will be voting on the project. I would welcome the opportunity to further discuss my concerns with any or all of you either to give me a better understanding if I'm wrong or clarify my feelings to you. I hope you realize that while I will be one of those to bear the initial blow of the cost of the project should it go through, however, you must keep in mind that the ones who will finally pay in full are the ultimate consumers and citizens whom you represent.

Renton, WA 98055 Dear Mayor Shinpoch, We have been watching with a great deal of concern all developments regarding the East Side Green River Watershed. Project. As we read this proposal, it appears to provide for fancy pumping and drainage programs for Renton and the surrounding areas so more land can be developed. How- ever, the plan calls for assessing business and industry for the majority of the cost. The existing business and industries do not need this drainage program. Renton building codes have incorporated floor elevations above the 100 year flood plain for several years . Any need for this project will only come about by future develop- ment, and these developers should bear the cost. The cost/benefit ratio for existing business and industry is way out of proportion. As a result, we are totally opposed to this project and ask that you made our opposi€ion known to the Renton City Counsel . Sincerely, GEO. A. HORMEL & CO. COM ' ' ter- -�- Don L. Pohlman. Seattle D. P. Manager jt cc: Gary Grant Kay Johnson • . INTEROFFICE CORRESPONDENCE Date April 30, 1974 TO: Avery Garrett, Mayor FROM: Warren C. Gonnason, Public Works Director SUBJECT: Green River Valley Drainage Program - SCS As you know, I have been involved with the Green River Valley Drainage . . Program since its inception back in 1959 and 1960 during the final con- , . struction phases on the Howard Hanson dam. This led to the application . for Federal funding through SCS on their small watershed program, Public Law 566. This program provided for the major elements of flood control and drainage to be funded with Federal funds and local costs would include rights-of-way, .relocation of utilities and mitigation of damages caused by the project. EARLY FINANCIAL PROGRAMS It was originally anticipated that the local funding would be accomplished by the County - 1/3, ,the State -.1/3 and 1/3 by the local sponsoring agencies. The local sponsoring agencies, namely Renton, Kent, Auburn, Tukwila and King County. as agencies having political jurisdiction within the area and the King County Soil and Water.Conservation District together formed the basin-wide agency known as the Green River Flood Control Zone District. A general • . obligation bond issue was placed before the voters of the Green .River Flood Control Zone District in 1967 for its share of the local funding requirements. A majority of the votes cast were in favor, however, the issue failed to get • • the necessary 60% favorable votes. Since that time, costs have risen, the County funds have been substantially 'depleted and I feel there is little -Chance-Of getting-state participation. . in-any .event,_ in order for the pro- ject to continue I feel the best approach is for the local .area to face the funding requirements head-on and develop a program to raise the entire.amount of the required local funding. SUGGESTED FINANCING PROGRAM The matter of local financing has been the subject of a considerable number of meetings recently, the latest of which have been sponsored by the Greater Renton Chamber of Commerce in a series of meetings involving local land . owners within the flood plain area. From this it appears that the most viable means of raising the necessary local funds is by means of service charges and the issuance of revenue bonds. For the purposes of this dis- cussion the Green River Flood Control Zone District may be divided into two geographical areas: '(1) the up-land or hillside areas within the basin which contribute run-off waters to the lowland areas and (2) the lowland areas or flood plain which require, in addition to the removal of surface ' To: Avery Garrett, Mayor April 30, 1974 From: Warren Gonnason, Public Works Director Page 2 Subject: Green River Valley Drainage Program - SCS • waters as is the case in the uplands, but actually drainage by the construction • of channels and pumping stations to lower the water table. The plan here would be to administer a service charge on all of the properties within the Green River Flood Control Zone District for the removal of surface waters. This charge would be based upon the relative amounts of surface water run-off con- tributed by each parcel and would take into consideration the amounts of impervious surfaces that have been developed on each property. This program would follow along the same lines of the utility service charge proposed to be imposed by the .City of Bellevue. An additional service charge for drainage and pumping services would be levied against the lowland or flood plain area. This would be in addition to their participation in ,the service charge levied . over the entire district. These service charges to the lowland areas would provide essentially for the-operations and maintenance of the channels-and- - pumping hannels and.. ..pumping facilities as well as-provide an appropriate share of the local capital requirements. PRESENT ESTIMATES OF COST • The most recent estimates indicate that the Federal share of this project is currently estimated at $28 million and the local requirements composed of right-of-way, utilities relocation and mitigation of damages is estimated at • $15 million. The 110 acres of wetlands is included in the local responsi • - • bility and,as you could see could require very high capital cost to acquire these lands. George Wannamaker, Project Engineer for King County, has made some preliminary estimates of area and possible service charge rates and it appears that this approach as outlined is feasible and service charges would • be reasonable considering the benefits derived. It is important at this time • to consider that the $28 million of Federal funds' will not be available for an indefinite period of time, but early action is required to assure the • Federal participation. • • ALTERNATIVES IF PROJECT IS DROPPED If the project is dropped, of course, we would lose the immediate benefit s� _$.�Q_million in Fe eral funds and. it will be necessary for the sponsoring agencies to determine how the properties within the -flood- plain-are to be developed or if they are to be developed pending a solution to the drainage program. The drainage problem would remain the same and all fill permits have been predicated upon the plan and facilities as developed by SCS. I would suggest some kind of moratorium on development in the flood plain area unless and until an adequate funding and drainage development program • is achieved: It therefore appears to me that it would be highly advantageous to take early advantage of the Federal project which, from an environmental point of view, will be beneficial to the area by the acquisition of wetlands. A future program might not contain sufficient funding or environmental require- • ments sufficient to insure the preservation of any wetlands as the basin develops. • We will continue to work with the Greater Renton .Chamber of Commerce, the land owners and the other sponsors within the Green River Flood Control • Zone District in an attempt to achieve the success of this program. It is• • t m To: Avery Garrett, Mayor April 30, 1974 From: Warren Gonnason, Public Works Director Page 3 Subject: Green River Valley Drainage Program - SCS the general consensus at this. time that the institutional arrangement best suited to handle this program is the Green River Flood Control Zone District administered by the King County Council. I understand the County Council is now in the process of considering service charges for drainage in the unincorporated areas of the County. I feel that this methodology offers the best opportunity for adequately funding an urban drainage program in the City of Renton. If the County takes the lead, this should create the incentive necessary for the City to likewise approach the urban drainage program problem as a utility with appropriate service charges. In this way, sufficient funding could be made available to provide some of the environmental features including stream preservation and enhancement that we are so often criticized for allowing development to occur without pro- vision for these. If there is any other information or approach that you feel might benefit or supplement this concept, I would be most pleased to hear from you and discuss the matter at your convenience. r , WCG:sn • Western Pr000ssillg Company, Ilu.

What I found was that we were being asked to agree to a design that was still not finalised and to a financing plan that was still undecided. After 20 years of blundering, the project remains ill-conceived and horrendously expensive. The Basin Executive Committee has proposed to assess those who benefit from this project the funds necessary to payfor it.. On the surfact, this appears reasonable. The large industrial developments on the valley floor can afford to have their property taxes increased by over 6.0%. A closer look turns up a number of difficulties, however. At the meeting Mr. Tanaka, a member of the planning group charged with responsibility to' determine financing, stated that an older resident of the valley bottom, whose land has always lain above the 100 year flood plain would not have to pay any assessments because 'she would not be benefitting from this project. By logical extension, does this mean that anyone else on the valley floor who is not subject to the 100 year flood also does not have to pay? In that case any developer who puts in an extra 5 or 10 feet of fill before building, thus aggravating the flood potential in the valley, also does not have to pay because he also will not benefit from the project.. This is going to place the burden for the project on those small landholders in the valley who can afford neither the extra fill nor the assessments threatened by this project. Why King County must be involved in. this project seems clear. No smaller agency exists that can afford to guarantee the funding for this massive a project. Funding is to come out of a limited obligation bond, because this is the only, bond that can be arranged whereby the people do not have to give voter approval , and the voters are unlikely to give that approval . WPC. pg.z If the projected overall figure of about $60,000,000 looks high now, take into account that this does not yet include either the operation and main- tenance charges, which are projected to rise from a 1981 figure of $115,000 to a 1987 figure of over $1 ,000,000 annually, and continuing after that for the life of the project. Nor does that $60,000,000 include the landscaping, jogging trails, and recreational improvements that also have been designed into the system. Project planners apparently are assuming that the people of the valley bottom are also the only ones to benefit from this planning and thus will be the only ones charged for it. The hillsides of the eastern areas of Renton and Kent contain a larger acreage of land than does the valley bottom. The rain that falls on this area winds up in the valley drainage system. The responsibility for creating this problem therefore does not lie fully on those living on the valley bottom. But this large block of voters is not being assessed any money under the present proposal . Since the benefit assessment proposed by the Green River Basin Project neither reflects the true benefits derived from the project nor assigns any penalty to a large number of properties causing the problems, serious thoughts should be given to a re-evaluation of all financing options, and the public's opinion. That opinion was more than 90% disapproval of this project:at the public meeting on July 8, 1981 . The basic question appears to be whether the project planned is the best or most cost effective solution that exists. A number of questions have been raised on this point which strongly suggest that the present channels are sufficient to handle present water volumes providing the pumps keep pumping. What the project suggests is to enlarge the system to provide for a minimum of 7 days storage of water in case the pumps are turned off. Such storage no longer exists because all of the low lying wetland areas in the northern part of the valley have been filled with large amounts of fill for development projects. This has happend in the last few years, while the cities were "studying" the problem. 0 WPC pg. 3 Now that federal funds may disappear soon, the urgency or retaining them seems to require some plan, however unjust or ill-conceived, be railroaded through before October. We don't yet know who will pay, nor have we been made fully cognizant of just how much we are being asked to pay, except that it is going to be a great deal of money. Other possible solutions to the flooding problem exist. Drainage ditch carrying capacity is presently adequate to the task put on it. Only a small amount of expansion and rerouting would be necessary to carry a larger quantity. If that water could be pumped into the river as the need arose, a great deal of money could be saved. To increase the carrying capacity of the Green/Duwamish river thedikes would have to be raised a few feet, a plan that is already under consideration anyway. Raising the dikes would have the added advantage that flooding resulting from excessive discharges from Hanson dam would also be reduced. The massive landscaping and recrea- tional facilities demanded by the proposed Green River Basin Watershed Project would also become unnecessary. Other innovative solutions surely exist to this problem. , hope that the lure of federal taxpayer funds does—n. 8s - zling that it blinds us to fair, equitable, and practical considerations.

OFF/ F • King County Courthouse Seattle, Washington 98104 Dear Ron: Thank you for sending me the data about the East Side Green River Watershed Project by your letter of April 13 , 1981. I reviewed the Local Sponsor Financing Plan (2nd draft dated April 1981) and presented some comments to the Basin Executive Committee at a meeting in Kent on April 17. At that meeting I stated that use of a Flood Control Zone District for financing and implementing the project should be considered. Use of a Flood Control Zone District has many good advantages. (a FCZD is already in existence and could be used, or the area it covers could be divided into subzones, if desirable, to reduce the scope of any program) . As you know, funding of capital cost initially is a major problem, but providing funds for annual operation and maintenance, etc. is also a major problem and a continuing one after a flood control or drainage project is completed and placed into operation. A FCZD has good fund-raising ability in both areas. Possibly the best solution to funding would be a mixture of capital cost funding by the County issuing limited general obli- gation bonds (I am assuming unlimited general obligation bonds requiring a vote are not a practical solution) , some additional capital cost funding by revenue bonds or other means by a FCZD, - and annual operation and maintenance requirements funded by a FCZD. I further stated at the meeting in Kent that the estimated cost burden to property owners to fund the project appears to be modest compared to the value of property and the benefits of - '- -ab- ^ ^- Ded with development. The East Side Project should move ahead at maximum speed. It is needed to prevent damage to existing land and improvements, The Honorable Ron -Dunlap -2- May 22 , 1981 encourage additional development, and protect future improve- ments. The project will be even more costly to build in the future, and its implementation is long overdue. As a major property owner in the East Side Project area, we would like to be helpful wherever we can in implementing this project. Please let me know how we can help. Best personal regards.

TO: Green River Technical Committee . r /�Q // " i FROM: Paul Tanaka, Program Analyst SUBJECT: FLOOD CONTROL ZONE DISTRICTS (FCZD) Gary Grant, Chairman of the Green River Basin Executive Committee requested Technical . Committee staff to provide the BEC with addi- tional information on the possibility of using the flood control zone district statute, RCW 86. 15 , as the legal authority to imple- ment the East Side Watershed Project. The purpose of this memo is to identify some of the major features of RCW 86. 15, and to assess how these features meet the needs of the East Side Project. Background • Codified 1 as RCW 86 . 15, the flood control zone district (FCZD) statute was enacted to allow counties, through FCZD' s , a broad range of flood control powers and am broad range of financing and ti revenue collection alternatives . Thee powers and funding methods • will be described in the next section. There is an existing Green River Flood Control Zone District (GRFCZD) which was created in 1966 . The GRFCZD encompasses both the East and West Side Green River Watershed Project areas . While the GRFCZD has not to date collected any revenues , nor initiated any capital . improvements , it is still considered active, and could begin those activities by - . . -the County Council , following the procedures outlined in RCW 86 . 15 .

Thus the general powers of .a FCZD are • sufficient to accomplish the local share purpos- of the East Si e. €.7//r-c, pr ojet Project, i . e . , acquisition of land and utility re ocations The County Council initiates FCZD improvements through resolution.. This resolution specifies , among other , things , that a. comprehensive plan of development for flood control has been prepared; and that _ the planned improvements generally contribute- to the objectives of that plan; that the plan has been submitted to the state Department of Ecology (DOE) 90 days prior to initiating the improvement; that engineering plans and studies for the improvement are on file with . thecounty engineer; that estimated costs for the improvement are available; and that the improvement will benefit the FCZD. Prior to final" adoption of a resolution to undertake a flood . control improvement for a FCZD, a public hearing must be held. DR=AFT • The County Council adoptes an annual budget for the FCZD that includes the following appropriation items : overhead and admin- istration, O&M, and debt service . A public hearing is held prior to approval of the budget, which occurs at the same time the county budget is approved. Revenue to meet this annual budget can be collected through a • • variety of methods. They include : ,e:row. n sa arc a) monies available to counties for flood • ro ca •e transferred to a FCZD with authorization of the County • Council ; b) a special annual ad valorum levy can be assessed with • approval of voters within the FCZD; • c) an assessment can be collected against properties specially • benefitted by a FCZD improvement ; d) voluntary assessments (for up to 15 years) can be collected with the written agreement of property owners ; 7 e) service charges authorized by /County Council resolution; • and • f) an annual levy, not exceeding '54/$1000 AV, when such levy will not take away from other taxing districts . Flood Control Zone Districts are authorized to issue revenue bonds - and unlimited (voter approved) general obligation bonds to fund • capital costs. • In summary, FCZD' s are essentially creztures of the county, though h?vY1 Gte2G, Corpora-ft on . they are separate . They have the flood control powers of a county, but do not have a county' s police powers, e. g. , a FCZD cannot enact zoning regulations. FCZD' s can issue revenue and DRAFT .J unlimited G.O. bonds and collect revenue through a variety .of methods . The County Council and Executive , working through the Public Works Director , would administer the FCZD, and make all fiscal and administrative decisions . Public hearings are required to initiate improvements , to levy an assessment, and to approve a zone district budget. • W�u� 14/1:i a FCZD for the East Side Project coo 4Y Disadvantages of Using e5sve, issue.

This agreement is binding upon all heirs and successors in interest of the property. The voluntary assessments may be in any amount agreed to, and the proceeds may also be used to fund O&M costs .

DRAFT • e 2) Ability to vary benefit assessments : Unlike a county ULID, or city LID, the assessment roll for FCZD benefit assessments can vary over the term of the assessment period. This is a feature which the Technical Committee believes is significant. A variable assessment roll allows properties that develop over time to assume their fair share of the costs (and of the benefits) of the East Side Project. 3) Ability to consolidate revenue collection: Under the FCZD statute , benefit assessments ate collected as part of the property tax statements sent out to all County properties by . the King County Comptroller. Thus , there is already in place a billing system, and the East Side Project will not have to create its own, very expensive system. Further, having only • one entity. responsible for revenue collection is more desirable . than having each local sponsor collecting separately. 4) Ability to collect both capital and O&M costs through benefit assessments : Unlike other benefit assessment authorities, FCZD' s allow both debt service and. O&M costs to be collected together. This eliminates the need for separate billing systems for capital and O&M costs . • In summary, FCZD' s have seve al features which would be compatible , rkspe,d— even desirable , with the East Side Project. . The primary disadvantage to a FCZD, its lack .of authority to issue on its own a limited G.O. bond issue, may be offset by the County assuming that task through an interlocal agreement /.o.✓'e- iss�i z.49 Fe. c ee-4 1 t hmr ied tnw"{'r o V 17 ( L Z. )Or''D j QC/ G. �cj � a,d5 Gnd DRAFT Am I �r`�a ° Weed' Gil L $- ( �v'/ • rJ/Hey' !i c.1Lt o rr�� Flood Control Zone District - - should Bestrongly considered ' as cdmethod of implementing the East Side Project. • • � .
