PAP v _ SISTANT CITY ATTORNEY Nor, 27 1939 0 — P444471k The Mayor and the City Council City of Renton City Hall, Renton, Washington 98055 March .25 , 1969 Gentlemen: The purpose of this letter is to confirm the undersigned' s prior notification to the City Council that I will have to disqualify myself from participating, as City Attorney, in the present dispute between the City and King County. Hospital District No . 1 . 7This for the reason that Mr'. John K. Pain, Jr . one of the undersigned' s partners, is the legal adviser to said municipal corporation. In such a case the attorneys involved have to disqualify themselves on the same basis as a Councilman would if such a conflict would arise . It would also be appropriate for me to reiterate, on a general basis , as I had done so many times in the past, orally and in writing, that the, City cannot classify or designate a land a_._. owner' s property, whether owned individually or by a municipal corporation, other than the City, in conjunction with the Com- prehensive Land Use Plan or Zoning Ordinance, to a recreational use and thereby deprive such owner of properly utilizing his land without being paid just compesation. Furthermore , any such action would be arbitrary and capricious if the purpose of any such "down- grading" would be to acquire such property for City purposes at a somewhat reduced compensation. This, in our opinion, wmld' not be,,, upheld by our Courts . The same opinion has also been given in the past to the Planning Commission and they are well aware of the City' s position in any such re-classification of property . It should also be mentioned, for general information purposes, that property cannot be re-zoned by simply making a motion during a Council meeting. Any change in the Comprehensive Plan requires public hearings, timely posted and advertised, before the Planning ' Commission and the City Council . _ We trust that the above will clarify any uncertainty in your mind - - and if you need any additional le*al opinion (but t nnot s kapplowyingwto ' the present dispute with the hospital) please shall be glad to supplysame to you. PI We remain , Respectfif�lly'; yours , r and 4. Shellan GMS: jml er City Attorney The Mayor and the City Council -2- March 25 , 1969 P. S . Notwithstanding any opinions expressed by some Councilmen about the law of condemnation, the following is the law as determined by our Supreme Court : "The market value of property is its value for 'any 'u'se to which it may be adapted, and in estimating its, value all the uses of which the property is susceptible should be con- sidered, and not merely the condition in which it may be at the time and the use to which it may have been put by the .owner . Lewis on Em. Dom. 478" . Seattle 8 Montana Ry. Co . vs . Murphine , 4 Wash. 448 , 457. "The rule is that the market value of the land is to be estimated with reference to the uses and purposes for which it is adapted, and that any special features which may enhance its marketability may properly be considered . But the fact that the land is needed for the parti- cular object sought by the condemnation is not to be regarded as an element of the value to be ascertained . The question is not what the pro- perty is worth to the condemning agency, but what could probably be realized from 'its -e' i e to any purdaser who might desire it for any or all of the purposes for which it is available .

Custer, Mayor Gc'"' spy 4TO Members of the Renton City Council -e) Renton, Washington ?(?92gZak,2 Subject : Purchase of the Highlands hospital property by the City of Renton Gentlemen: It is hoped that the Hospital Commission, in their negotiations with the City of Renton on the purchase of the Highlands hospital property, will not let a dollar sign be the only criterion and major concern, and that the land will be offered at a reasonable price with a spirit of cooperation and genuine concern for the welfare of all people. With an $8 million budget, the Hospital District can afford to absorb the small amount of revenue loss and still provide the Renton and Kent communities with an excellent hospital facility. They would realize a substantial profit over their original invest- ment, and at the same time make a very worthwhile contribution to the people of our generation and future generations by making it available to the City of Renton for development as a recreational area. Good government for all the people requires close cooperation between administrative bodies. Ten years ago, when the Renton Hospital District purchased this 17 acre tract from King County, a nominal fee of $309000 was agreed on, primarily because the intended use of the land was for the benefit of the people. King County administrators did not demand an unreasonable price; nor did they insist that it must be rezoned to give it maximum sales potential. We feel that the Hospital District should be equally charitable in their negotiations with the City of Renton. The City of Renton cannot afford to pay a maximum price for this area, and yet open areas for recreational purposes are despar- ately needed in our growing community. Hospital facilities are also vital to our community. We ask, therefore, that; cooperation and_ good will between governing bodies be effected to the end that neither aspect of our community need is neglected. Very truly yours HIGHLANDS CITIZENS' COMMITTEE mfg cc: Hospital Commissioners _ King County Hospital District I MEMORANDUM TO: Councilman Henry Schellert June 149 1968 FROM: Planning Department SUBJECT: Hospital Highlands Property Application was made for R-4 zoning by the hospital authorities in , lu g.pst _j,96 �., Planning Commission recom- mended to the Ct C�O�ancil granting of R-4 except the east portion of Lots 1 and 10 , Block 7, for which they recommended R-2 , The City Council denied this request. In July 1966 the hospital authorities again applied for R-4 zoning, The Planning Commission recommended granting of R-4 and R-3 zoning: however, the applicant did not actually amend the rezone application at that time. The City Council again denied the change of zone . The hospital authorities in a letter to the City Council dated February 20 , 19679 amended their request to R-3 zoning with certain restrictions in height , access , maximum number of individual units per acre , landscaping , etc. The matter was referred by the Council to the Planning Committee and has apparently been in their hands since that time . There are copies of considerable correspondence in our files between the hospital authorities , their attorney and the City.

We feel that the council is not only ri rht and just in its present position; but is also committed to serve the city of Renton, not the entire hospital district. We are certain many residents in the Renton Highlands feel as you do, and we do, that government is not set up to manipulate stock or real estate for • the benefit of certain agencies, .lather, it is to serve the regio:_al c'onstituanG and rotect the people (i l suchthecase) from �' i�- l as ten.. present exploitation by other ad.Yiinist ative interests. • Many people would agree thathospital board is greedy in seeking a_ :,.;:, the i'l �;1t;,: � a 10007, turn on a ten year investment. The argent that the hospital • board is bound by law to gat the highest ,..,vice for the land is countered . Cy the fact that "the council is bo:;.nd to obtain the lowest .ce v.l . any i tse..:s' i., purchases. the hos';i:al board' s reasoning, the Council should rezone the laaa to th., lJ:'?e-t• value usage before bargaining on a price". Again, we co?Eden_ and ia2:'Jrse the council for preventing an eyesore to be placed in the Fenton Highlands, for having the foresight to set aside land for recreational usage; and" for conducti tg al1 business in a manner beneficial to Renton.

No. R-379-67 ; rezone from G-9600 to P-l; property located on Se 180th St. between Valley FseeWaSr Oh. the West and 96th Ave. So on the east. • Planning Director Ericksen stated that this site for the hospital had been under consideration for some time; that the access is from Talbot Hill Road and So 180th Street. The proposed hospital location is in a, • single-family residential area, but the hospital would be allowable as a governmental function subject to the approval .of the site plan by the Planning Commission. However, the hospital board has requested rezoning to P-1 which would allow the hospital and a future out-patient clinic. The Chairman called for further comments; there being none, it was moved by Denzer, seconded by Cordell, that the hearing be closed. Motion carried unanimously. Action: It was moved by Denzer, seconded by Stone, that the rezone application of Valley General Hospital be approved and forwarded to the City Council as it complies with the intent of the Comprehensive Plano Motion carried unanimously. (g) WROTEN, ROBERT E. , Appl, No. R-381-67 , rezone from GS-1 to R-1; property located 729. 24 ° north of 4th Ave, N. and 150 ' west of 132nd Ave. S.E. Color slides of the property were shown and the Planning Director pointed out the location of the property on the zoning map. The Planning Director stated that the owner wishes to utilize the property for the construction of a single-family residence; that the existing zoning re- quires a lot size of 35, 000 square feet. The area has no sewer service and would require the use of a septic tank. In view of this, it was the Planning Department' s recommendation that the property be rezoned to SR-1 calling for a. minimum lot size of 7500 square feet rather than R-1 with a 5000 square feet minimum lot size to allow for the necessary septic tank drain field. The builder, representing the applicant, stated that this zoning would be satisfactory. As there were no further comments, it was moved by Stredicke, seconded by Sterling, that the hearing be closed. Motion carried unanimously, Action: It was moved by Stredicke, seconded by Denzer, that the application of Robert E. Wroten for rezoning be approved for SR-1 as this zoning is in agreement with the Comprehensive Plano Motion carried unanimously. (h) GARRISON, LOGAN D. , Appl.
