Honorable Mayor and Members of
Renton City Council
Attention: Mr. Gerard Shellan
City Attorney
Gentlemen:
This letter will confirm the discussion between officials of Pacific Car
and Foundry Company, the City Attorney, and members of the Renton City
Council on Monday last.
Since filing its petition for vacation by the City of Renton of certain
parcels of property, Pacific Car and Foundry Company has acquired, by
purchase from the United States Government, the Foundry building and
property located at the southwest corner of its Renton Plant. As a
consequence of this acquisition, we now wish to amend our petition of
25 July 1958 to incorporate the vacation of the balance of Pigott Avenue
between Factory and Garden Streets. This request is set forth in the
attached amending petition dated November b, 1958. You will note that
the only other affected property owner, Puget Sound Power and Light
Company, concurs in this petition.
This additional vacation is sought on the basis that the property in-
volved would necessarily become an exclusive thoroughfare for Pacific
Car and Foundry Company employees, dead-ending in a Company-owned parking
lot. Under the circumstances, it is only equitable that Pacific Car
assume full responsibility for repair and maintenance costs.
Also, as the-result of our discussions, we are willing to agree, in
consideration of the vacation of the various parcels mentioned in the
original petition of 25 July 1958 and in the amending petition of 4 Nov-
ember 1958, to contribute $$8,560 to the City of Renton for the purpose
of improving City property in the general area of bur Renton plant.
In prior correspondence we have pointed out this Company's contemplated
substantial investment in a new Engineering Department building to be
constructed on a portion of the area involved, which it is expected will
eventually lead, through research and development, to more jobs and
larger payrolls. Also, we have pointed out that in the past -our Company
Pacific Car and Founds ompany
Honorable Mayor and members of
Renton City Council

Page 2
has made substantial contribution towards storm sewers and asphalt on City-
owned streets bordering the plant. The City, too, has been placed to con-
siderable maintenance and repair expense which would be obviated, insofar as
Pigott Avenue is concerned, if vacation action is taken.
In view of all of the foregoing, we respectfully urge favorable action upon
our petitions in order that construction of the new building will not be de-
layed any longer than is necessary.
Sincerely yours,
PACIFIC CAR AND FOUNDRY COMPANY

Walt Reid, Chairman
Gentlemen:
The Pacific Car and Foundry Company have completed
plans for the construction of an engineering building on the
site relative to the vacation of Piggott Avenue and other
Streets.
I have previously been authorized to negotiate with
the Company for an agreement to participate in the improvement
of Garden Street as a condition of approving the petition and
setting the date of hearing.
An estimate of $7500.00 was submitted to the Company
as the total cost of the improvement and they have agreed to pay
one half the cost in the amount of $ 3750.00, provided no assess—
ment is made by L.I.D. and provided the City install adequate
traffic control facilities on 4th Avenue North at Garden Street.`
I consider the offer agreeable and recommend approval
for hearing on vacating the streets.
Very truly yours,
James L. Hight n, City .engineer

Mr. James L. Highton
City Engineer
City of Renton
Renton, Washington
Dear Mr, Highton:
This is in reply to your letter of October 23 in regard to the petition
by Pacific Car and Foundry Company for the vacation of certain streets.
We note that it was the majority decision of the City Council in its-
meeting on October 21 that our offer to participate in the improvement
of Garden Street to the extent of $3,750., including adequate traffic
control at 4th North and Garden, was not adequate consideration for such
vacation. It occurs to us that we were remiss in not submitting certain
facts which helped to form the background for our offer.
Two years ago, at the request of the City, our Company participated to
the extent of approximately $5,000 in storm sewers and asphalt for Pigott
Avenue, and storm sewers on Garden Street. Obviously, in the event of
vacation, the City will be relieved of all maintenance responsibility
thereafter.
The need for this area is brought about by the Company's decision to
invest over a quarter of a million dollars in a building intended prim-
arily to house Engineering Department personnel. The purpose behind this
investment is to augment our Engineering staff in order to be in a position
to develop new products and programs in an effort to stabilize and increase
employment at our Renton plant, If we are successful, our substantial in-
vestment will, of course, mean more jobs and larger payrolls.
We do not feel that the improvement of Garden Street is of any substantial
benefit to our employees. Further, we do not feel that giving up Pigott
Avenue from Factory to Garden Street will adversely affect the City's
traffic-moving potential, inasmuch as the present use is almost entirely
limited to our employees.

offer should be sufficient and respectfully urge that the matter be again
referred to the Renton City Council,
