Bicentennial from the Human Rights and Affairs Commission to
Air Park the City Council in which the Commission requests
the City Council rescind its action of
October 4 , 1976 in which the park was named. It
further stated that the Kiwanis Club discriminates
against females in its membership requirements ,
the City is using public funds and land in joint
venture with the Kiwanis , and in including the
name 'Kiwanis ' in the park name, the City condones
discrimination contrary to its Fair Practices Policy.
Mr. Albert Talley, Chairman of the Human Rights
and Affairs Commission spoke concerning the
Commission's decision to go to Council over the
park name change. He stated the Commission was
issued a complaint signed by Versie Vaupel about
the naming of the air park; the Commission then
obtained a copy of the Kiwanis by-laws to study,
and after fact-finding and investigating the
Commission concluded that the City is condoning
discrimination in naming the park.
Council President Perry relinquished the gavel
to Mr. Grant in order to participate in the
discussion, distributing information packets
and questions and noting he is not a member of
the Kiwanis Club. •
Mr. Talley replied to questions posed noting the
Commission could initiate an investigation of its
own volition, or pursue individual complaints .
There was some discussion on the city 's financial
participation in the park funding. Mr. Coulon, ,
Park Director, said there had been city grading
work done in 'the Icosahedron park area, but
assured the Council that no city funds have
actually been spent in connection with the park

Thorpe that the Commission is empowered with
broad responsibilities both to initiate action
itself and to act upon individual complaints.

filed against the city, not the Kiwanis Club.

the Commission had received on this matter;
Mr. Talley named two -- Mr. & Mrs. Vaupel.
Mr. Lynn Underwood, President of the Renton

in donating the park was to benefit all the
people of Renton. Mr. Underwood read a letter
dated September 7 , 1976 to Mayor' Delaurenti
in which the Kiwanis Club asks that the naming
of the park be left to the discretion of the city.
Mr. Louis Yahoudy asked about parks named for
other organizations in the city. Mr. Shellan

Dear Councilman Perr)i:
This is in response to your letter of January 28, 1977, regarding
the Commission's investigation of the naming of Kiwanis Bicentennial
Air Park.
In a swer to your questions, we convey the following information:
1. he matter was before the Commission at its regular public meetings
in October, November, December and January. During these times the
Commission interviewed Versie and Warren Vaupel. Councilman Stredicke
was present at the November meeting, and explained the dollar contribu-
tion from the Airport Fund and the Kiwanis Club. No other persons were
present at the above meetings except staff liaison Sharon Green and
Beth Borst who was present at the last two meetings only as an
observer.
2. The Commission reviewed the Kiwanis International By-Laws obtained
by request from Chicago after the local chapter could not provide a
copy. It also reviewed a memorandum and map from Airport Director
Del Bennett regarding ownership and practical use for the property
in question.
3. The Commission received a request to investigate the matter from
Warren Vaupel in addition to the complaint from Versie Vaupel.
Section 2-1005 of Title II, Chapter 9, Code of General Ordinances
empowers the Commission to conduct such investigation based on a
complaint or its own initiative.
4. Section 2-1003 of Title II•, Chapter 9, Code of General Ordinances
empowers the Commission to act on any matter of prejudice without
restriction to matters of employment, housing or similar activities.
Cou cil President George Perry
Mar h 1, 1977
Pag: 2
5. , The Commission cannot be responsible for actions which occurred
prior to its formation in 1973. It is concerned with this particular
project and park name which it feels is discriminatory contrary to
Section 4 of the city's Fair Practices Policy. The naming of other
parks after service organizations occurred before the Fair Practices
' Policy was adopted and the Commission was established.
We ope that this sufficiently answers your questions. If you need fur ,Iher information, please contact me.

Dear Ge rge ;
I ee from the newspaper that there may be something further
come before the City Council regarding the matter of the Renton
Kiwanis Bicentennial Airpark name. In the event that this should
happen - would appreciate it if you would let me know just when
it come up so that I or some other representative of the Kiwanis
Club of Renton could be present to explain our side of this'
story.
I m concerned that it might come before the Council and we
wouldn' be aware of it and thus we would not have an opportunity
to present the Kiwanis views on what happened and what led up to
the dif erence of opinion on the naming of the park. If nothing
further does come before the Council on this matter then I am
quite c ntent to let things stand as they are but, if we are not
that fo tunate, I think the Renton Kiwanis views should be heard.
Sincerely, (�

January 24 , 1977
City Council
Renton, Washington
Members of the City Council :
At the request of Versie Vaupel, the Human Rights and Affairs
Commission has investigated the propriety of naming the new city
park "Kiw nis Bicentennial Air Park. " This matter was brought to
the Commission because of alleged discrimination by Kiwanis in its
membership rules.
The Commi sion has reviewed Kiwanis ' by-laws , park finan.cing •pro-
posals, andpark location and property ownership. A copy of the
"Membership" section of Kiwanis ' by-laws is attached.
After revewing all available materials , the
ion has
that the inclusion of 'Kiwanis ' in the park name issimproperdecided because:
1 . Kiwanis, in the opinion of the Commission, discriminates
against females ,in its membership requirements ,
2 . The park is a joint venture between Kiwanis and the City
of Renton for a project involving use of public land and
the expenditure of $10 , 000 of public funds .
,y
3 . Inclusion of the name 'Kiwanis ' makes it appear the city
condones discrimination, contrary to its Fair Practices
. Policy, by promoting a discriminatory organization.
The Commission, therefore, requests that the City Council rescind
its action of October 4 , 1976 , by which the park was named and
refer this matter to a .committee for reconsideration. Thank you
for your consideration of this request.
Sincerely,
'7/ ''' r._

The meeting was called to order by Chairman Talley at-7:35 p.m. in the third floor
conference room.
It was MOVED by WRIGHT, seconded by SADO, that the minutes of the December 13, 1976
meeting be approved as written. MOTION CARRIED.
The matter of �he Kiwanis Bicentennial Air Park was discussed at length. Commission
members reviewed the by-laws of Kiwanis International, a memorandum and map from
Airport Direct Del Bennett regarding park property ownership and location, and
Mayor. Delauren is verbal comments to Chairman Talley.
Versie Vaupel poke on the original letter of complaint and cited the use of city
land, city pro ided maintenance and taxnayer's money. Warren Vaupel indicated his
belief that th, promotion of the Kiwanis name was unfair in that the club dis-
criminated ag+st females. The Vaupels pointed out that the park was only
partially funded bv. Kiwanis and attaching its name to the park condones discrim-
ination against 53% of the population.
Each Commissiolr member indicated his/her opinion on the propriety of the name. The
consensus was it hat it was improper to use Kiwanis in the park name because over half
the cost was ltbrn by the city and supported by taxpayers.
It was MOVED 1y WRIGHT, seconded by SADO, that the Commission direct a letter to
the City Council expressing its objection to Kiwanis in the park name based on:
1. Kiwanis' discrimination against females;
2. The combined funding of the project, including use of taxpayers' (city) monies;
3. The appear. nce that the city condones discrimination by promoting an organization
which disc' iminates in its' by-laws.
Following disc ssion, the motion and the second were withdrawn.
It was MOVED by WRIGHT, seconded by SADO, that a letter be directed to the City
Council reques ing that it repeal the ordinance, resolution or other action which
created the park name for the same. reasons set forth in the previous motion. MOTION
CARRIED.
It was MOVED by SADO, seconded by LEW, that a copy of the Kiwanis By-Laws be enclosed
with the Council letter. MOTION CARRIED.

City Council .
Renton ' Washington •
Members,, of the City Councils
At the Testiest..of ,Versie Vaupel, the Human Rights and Affairs
Commissio has investigated the propriety of naming the new city .
park "Kiw n'is. Bicentennial Air Park. " This matter was brought to;
the Commi sion because .Of alleged discrimination by Kiwanis in its
membersli rules. I
The ComMi sion has reviewed Kiwanis ' by-laws , park financing, pro-
posals,'1 and park locatibn and property ownership. A copy .of the
"Membership" section of I Kiwanis ' by-laws is attached.
After reviewing all available materials, the Commission has decided ' '`;:'.'
that the inclusion of 'Kiwanis ' in the park name is improper because;
1. ,Kiwanis, in the i:)pinion of the Commission, discriminates ,
jag inst females An its membership requirements
between Kiwanis and the City in ventureY
2. ,Th is a 'o t
i parkJ .. .
lof Renton for afproject involving use of public land and ,
'Ith expenditure .of $10,000 of public funds,
1 1
3 . ' Inclusion of the name 'Kiwanis ' makes it appear the city
condones .discrimination, contrary to its Fair Practices
II
Policy, by promoting a discriminatory organization. . .,
The Commission,` therefore, requests that the City Council rescind'
its ac,ta n of October 4 , 1976 , by which the park was named and
refer th' s matter to al committee for reconsideration. Thank you,
for your consideration; of this request.

January 24 , 1977
' I
City Council
Renton, Washington
Members of the City Council :
At the request of Versie Vaupel, the Human Rights and Affairs
Commission has investigated the propriety of naming the new city
park "Kiwanis Bicentennial Air Park. " This matter was brought to
the Commission because of alleged discrimination by Kiwanis in its .
membership rules,
The Commission has reviewed Kiwanis ' by-laws, park financing pro-
posals, and park location and property ownership. A copy of the
"Membership" section of Kiwanis ' by-laws is attached.
After reviewing all available materials , the Commission has decided
that the inclusion of 'Kiwanis ' in the park name is improper because:
' 1. Kiwanis, in the opinion of the Commission, discriminates
against females in its membershipreqpirements.
2 . The park is a joint venture between Kiwanis and the City
of Renton for a project involving uselof public land and
the expenditure of $10,000 of public funds .
3 . Inclusion of the name 'Kiwanis ' makes it appear the city
condones discrimination, contrary to its Fair Practices
Policy, by promoting a discriminatory iorganization J
The Commission, therefore, requests that the City Council rescind
its action of October 4 , 1976 , by which the park was named and
refer this matter to a committee for reconsideration. Thank you
for your consideration of this request.
Sincerely,
.Lt
Albert Talley, Chairperson

Committ�'e. Report committee has completed review of the Airport Master Plan and the Draft
Environmental Impact Statement prepared by VTN Washington which includes
Airport capital improvement program for long-range use and operation of the Air-
Master Plan port and related facilities. Public hearing was held by the committee
8/31/76 and the Aviation Committee concurred in the recommendation of
the Airport Director to delete from the plan the expanded seaplane base
facility at a cost of $500,000 which included acquisition of property and
lighted water lane. The committee recommended alternate improvements for
purpose of safety and efficiency in amount of $74,000 with FAA funding
anticipated. The committee listed other capital improvements in the
Master Plan as improvements to taxiway and lighting, construction of
seven hangar units with capacity for 46 aircraft, runway markings and
fencing and parking improvements. The report stated the Airport Master
Plan is flexible guideline for operation and improvement of the airport
and will be updated as needed and recommended adoption as prepared by

RECEIVED ..
The Honorable Charles Delaurenti, Mayor Sip i4 I9?6
and Members of the City Council
City of Renton CITY CF REiV;r7;�
M:4Y0?'j OFFICE
I The Kiwanis Club of Greater Renton is one of two Kiwanis
organizations in Renton.
Many people believe that the clubs are one; and as a result
our club has received a number of calls concerning the new Air Park.
•
It is not our project, although we wish it were because it
was al fine achievement for a service club.
•
About four years ago the downtown Kiwanis Club adopted ' the
Air Park as a public service project. The members of that club
have given many hours of volunteer work in various fund raising
projects including1their annual Air Fair to underwrite this as
well as other service club projects .
rIt is appropriate to name public monuments for the person or
association that sponsored them. The old Andrew Carnegie Library
and the present Carco Theater are examples .
I We are proud of the other Kiwanis Club for .their success in
raising over $9000 for the park. It was a major effort for a
relatively small group.
form' Our nation is on the march determined to rectify various
of second class citizenship that have been imposed on
minorities and women in the .past; and in that spirit, you are
being urged to name the park for Amelia Earhart.
No one can question that she was a brave and capable pioneer
and has a secure place in aviation history; but she has no parti-
cular connection with the local area; and there have been signifi-
cant contributions to aviation by members of other minority groups .
We are sure that the Kiwanians whose work and effort made
the park a reality intended that it be for the benefit of all the
people, both sexes , all races , all ages.
The names Kiwanis , Rotary, Lions , Soroptimists , Elks , Eagles ,
many others , represent groups of sincere Americans who, having
enjoyed a reasonably good life want to benefit the nation and the
community with acts of service.
'
The Air Park is being given to the city and, hence, to
its people. It is altogether appropriate that whatever name
it bears be given by the city; but as interested bystanders ,
we would suggest that Kiwanis Air Park is the proper and appro-
priate name. A second alternative might be simply Renton Air
Park; but then we believe that some proper credit should be
given tol our companion club for its work in creating the park
and to recognize that aviation is very much a part of our local
culture and life. Perhaps the whole thing could be covered by
the usual bronze plaque which could read as follows : "Renton
Air Park: Sponsored by the Renton Kiwanis Club as a bicentennial
project and dedicated/ to the pioneer spirit of the men and women
who first dared to fly. "
Very truly yours,
KIWANI•S LUB OF GREATER RENTON ,

It was on January 15 , 1975 that a committee composed of dedicated
1entonites representing twelve of the largest and most active Service
Clubs in Renton, ,first met with the purpose of establising a meanful
and lasting reminder to the future generations that we took the time ,
to pause, reflect and create something permanent for the future gener-
ations of our country' s Bicentennial and Renton' s seventy fifth ann—
iversary, as a city.
On September , 1976 the Bicentennial Monument was erected in what the
committee hopes will be permanently designated , "The Kiwanis Bicentennial
Airpark" . Those of uswho have toiled on this project for so long, hope
that it will fulfill all ofi our original intentions and wish to thank
the literally hundreds of . ilndividuals , groups and businesses whose don—
ations of ca" hand services made it',s completion possible.
We believe that the monument is beautifully original in conveying the
concept of the occasion. The plaques of granite should remind citizens
of the future of it' s purpose and thank the more substantial contributors
for their participation. To the hundreds of individuals who contributed
• a dollar or more, we are grateful and their names are inscribed on a
parchment scroll which rests in the time capsule along with other his—
torical Renton papers in the base of the monument which we expect to be
opened in a century hence.
It is regrettable that this public spirited, well intentioned effort,!
should be tainted by the suggestion of the National Organization of
Women that the park shouldlbe narried after a woman. The entire concept'
of a public park in it' s pF esent location belongs to the Renton Kiwanis
Club who have struggled four years to raise funds for this project.
Without their cooperation, the Bicentennial monument might -not have
become a reality.
For the record, it should be noted that the fund raising effort by the
Bicentennial Monument Committee occupied almost a year of our time. I
personally appeared before! numerous groups explaining the purpose of 'the
project and asked for their financial support. I regret to state that
the only organization to whom I made an appearance and requested funds
that faiked to contribute one single dollaa' was the National Organization
of Women. .
Yours very truly
Ed Davis

Dear Mayor Delaurenti and Council Members :
The !members of Renton Chapter, National Organization for
Women, have been following with interest the discussion over
the naming of Renton' s new Bicentennial Airpark. We support
the position taken by Warren Vaupel, questioning the propriety
of naming a public park after an organization which excluded
women,especially as a major portion of the cost of the project
is being borne by the City of Renton, from the monies of tax- 1
payers of both sexes, as well as contibutions from various
other, sources.
As an alternative, we would like to formally propose that
the site be designated "Amelia Earhart Par F- In this Bi-
centennial year, it is fitting that the City of Renton honor
an American hero whose resourcefulness, independence and
courage is an inspiration to women and men alike. Also, by
naming the park after the first woman to fly across the
Atlantic, we would highlight the impact the aviation industry
has had in our area and set a precedent for naming public
facilities after great women in history.
We sympathize with the financial difficulties the project
has ;raced in recent months. Several of our members are
willing to assist in some fund-raising activities such as
contacting other civic groups to request donations for
"Amelia Earhart Par °B. It may also be feasible to mount a
publ3 campaign by means of national feminist publications
linke�;with an appeal for contibutions .
Renton N.O.W. hopes that you will give serious consideration
to ourIrecoinniendations. Please keep us advised of further
actions on naming the park.
Sincerely, i.14.3

The Honorable Charles J. Delaurenti
Mayor of the City of Renton
200 Mill Avenue South
Renton; Washington ;98055
Dear Mayor Delaurenti:
Re: Air Park
•
I am in receipt of the Aviation Committee report dated
August 23, ,1976, regarding what has previously been referred
to as the "Kiwanis Bicentennial Air Par Paragraph 3 of
the Aviation Committee report raises several issues which
the Kiwanis Club of Renton must respond to.
' Unfortunately, :the By-Laws of Kiwanis would not allow
the Board of Directors to enter into the written agreement
referred to in paragraph 3 of the Aviation Committee report.
In other words, the 'Board of Directors in 1976 could not
bind the Board of, Directors. in the year 1977 . However, past •
president Terry Turner' s letter to you of August 9 , 1976 ,
does indicate the position which our club has taken with .
regard, to support. Without restating this letter:, the Board
of Directors of the Kiwanis Club have approved the concept
of coninued ' support and the future development of the' air
park in the years to come. This support would be in the
form of continued improvements to the park such as drinking
• fountalins, benches and other improvements as may be suggested ;
by .the Park Department. This continued support would, of
course, be in addition to.. the .$9 ,000.00 cash the Kiwanis
Club is willing to. contribute this calendar year.
The name of the new park :should be. solely within the
discretion of the City Councilor its, appropriate committee.
The Kiwanis Club has undertaken this project as a service to
the Renton community. The. club 'does .not wish a controversy
over the naming of the park and certainly would not condition
their ;gift or"continuing support' upon the, name "Kiwanis"
being lincluded in the name of the park. •
•
The Aviation Committee report is also not accurate in
some respects. I believe the following history would be
helpful to the Counoil in better understanding this project:

1. This Project was first initiated by the Kiwanis
Club in January of 1974 with an original authorization
to expend $3 , 000.00 .
2 . On May 20 ,, 1974 , the City Council referred the
proposed park to the City Planning Department for
preparation of a design.
3. The original plans prepared by the City covered an
area of approximately two-thirds of the area now
-planned for the park. The original plans drawn by
the City did not include the area where the bicentennial
icosahedron memorial is now located.
4 . The Kiwanis Club secured two landscaping bids.
Both of these bids were submitted to the City
Planning Department for review and evaluation.
The club was advised that both bidders and their
bids were :acceptable and the lowest bid was accepted.
The Kiwanis Club estimated that it would take
approximately $12 , 000. 00 plus considerable donated
labor in order to complete the park as planned.
When the bicentennial memorial came into the
picture in 1976 , the Kiwanis Club indicated that
they would try and raise funds necessary to cover
the additional lawn and sprinkling system that was
necessary in order to properly tie the planned
memorial into the planned park. Unfortunately,
the Kiwanis Club' s primary fund-raising project,
the Renton Air Fair, did not raise sufficient
funds to complete the expanded park in full.
iiwanis Club is appreciative of the City' s offer to
complete the now expanded air oark and is willing to make a
$9 , 000.00 contribution toward the completion of the air park
with absolutely no 'conditions attached to this contribution.
The Kiwanis Club coisiders this contribution to be a fitting
bicentennial project for the Renton Kiwanis Club and its
members will continue to provide support for this park as
previously mentione1d.
Very truly yours ,

' un '- - ro' e;s'siona ' ' ervices or Improvement'Improvement 'o ' 'Kiwaniis
Air Park ( outliwest Corner, Renton Municipal. Airport); •
.
The matter of a• proposed $10 ,000 transfer of Airport funds into the
Park ,Fund for the Kivianis Air Park was discussed at the Aviation
Committee ' s August 17 meeting. As a result , the Committee recommends
the following action:
1) ;.Transfer $10 ,000 from Airport Reserve for Capital Improvements
'Acct. 63 . 86 unto Airport Acct . 63 . 02 designated for the Air
. Park Development' Project , with the understanding that any services
contributed by other City departments to this project would NOT
be reimbursable by the Airport Fund.
2) Inform the Kiwanis Club that an account has been established for
the Air Park Development Project and their $9 ,000 contribution
should be deposited into that account immediately.
3) Advise the Kiwanis Club that in order for the project to carry
the Kiwanis Club name , they must provide a written agreement that
they will. contribute an additional $6 ,000 to the project in,
cash, or in contributed services and/or materials upon permlission
;by the City, within a five-year period. This would bring the
level of funding by the Kiwanis Club up to the full amount
originally stipulated at the start of the planning for this park.
The Aviation Committee recommends this action be taken on the basis
that ;the Air Park Development is an appropriate use of Airport funds .
It will complement the landscaping program previously initiated by
the Airport administration, and will provide a place for the public
to view the airport and pedestrian access to the perimeter road from
Rainier Avenue . . Council concurrence is hereby recommended and
referral to the Legislation Committee for an appropriate resoluition. .

Mayor Delaurenti and \2O MCC)
City Council Members ''-9 8 L 9'5� .
Municipal Building
Renton, WP 98055 i
I have today read with.interest an item in the newspaper which seems to indicate that
city funds and property (and thus taxpayers' money) may be used in connection with the
Kiwanis Bicentennial Air Park. I have not thoroughly investigated the issue but ques-
tion the propriety of taxpayers' money and property being used in this project. '
If the city is furnishing the actual land for the park, plus other possible goodls,
services and money, and if other-local people and organizations are likewise partici-
pating (the aggregate value of which would be greater than the Kiwanis' contribution) ,
why then is the park being officially referred to as the Kiwanis (repeat, Kiwanis)
Bicentennial Air Park? It should, in any event, be called something more appropriate
such as, for instance, Renton Bicentennial Air Park.
In addition, 'in view of the enabling ordinance of the Human Rights Commission, I
wonder if the city's Human Rights Commission should be made aware of the city's in-
volvement inithis proposal. This suggestion is made on the basis that the city's '
participation in this private, project seems to be against the general and perhaps
specific principles of that ordinance -- i.e., for the city to use property, ser-
vices and/orifunds to perpetuate the esteem and image of a discriminatory organiza- .
tion that refuses membership ,to over one-half of your city's residents and voters.
Thus, it would appear unusual, even without the referenced ordinance, that the city,
with its fine goals of affirmative action and human rights, would be considering
. the possibility of enhancing the name and prestige of this organization in part
with women's! tax dollars. (Granted, not all women would view the matter in this
light, but I' believe a considerable number do.)
i
Perhaps also, this letter could be referred to the Council's Airport Committee where
that Committee could reevaluate the city's participation in a park to be named after
an organization that discriminates against certain Renton citizens. Mr. Stredicke,
the Committee Chairman, has in the past exhibited considerable fairness and non-
discrimination, and I believe he will continue to act fairly when he reviews the
project from this perspective.
I do Want to stress the fact that the Kiwanis group no doubt has at times provided
some good community work; nonetheless, I feel the city should question the appro-
priateness of the city engaging in this particular activity with an organization
that practices discrimination in its membership selection.

Public Safety .
Committee Report Public Safety Committee Chairman McBeth presented committee report
covering five items as follows: Item 1 -. Complaint of Mr. and Mrs.
Animal Control & Don Baurichter, 1422 S. 7th St, complained of animals being allowed
Motorcycle to run loose in violation .of the animal control act, inadequate
Traffic I license fee for non-neutered animals and motorcycle traffic on
•
Pipeline Road (Renton Hill ). The committee recommended no change
be made in the existing ordinance which is adequate, however the
city has only one Animal Control Officer. and it is impossible 'for him
to enforce the ordinance provisions, and due to. budget difficulties,
additional iersonnel could not be .justified. The property owner was
j advised the possibility of filing a citizen's complaint against the
offending dog owner. The committee did not feel that a change in
,i license fees was warranted, that during. next year' s budget prepara-
•
tions, this item could be kept in mind as a revenue source. The
committee recommended referral- of the. Pipeline Road motorcycle traf-
fic to the police Department for possible increased patrolsland
enforcement of traffic ordinances, advising no council action; neces-
sary at this time. MOVED BY STREDICKE, SECONDED BY PERRY, COUNCIL
ACCEPT AND CONCUR IN COMMITTEE REPORT. CARRIED.

Noise Standards The Public Safety Committee report noted review of the State Depart-
ment of Ecology's proposed Motor Vehicle Noise Performance Standards
(WAC 173-62) as requested and did not recommend that such an ordi •
-
nance is warranted at this time. as it would -be difficult to enforce
and would require expensive additional decibel measuring equipment.
