Separate Consideration
Item 7.l.
Transportation: Fund Reallocation, Recruitment Expenses for Planner Position
Transportation Systems Division requested authorization to reallocate funds in the amount of $7,000 for recruitment expenses to fill the second transportation planner position. The
funds were originally allocated to reimburse airport supervisor moving expenses.
At the request of Councilwoman Keolker-Wheeler, Gregg Zimmerman, Planning/Building/Public Works Administrator, explained that Council authorized the expenditure of $20,000 on November
19, 2001, to hire a recruiting firm to fill a vacant transportation planner position. Since then, a second transportation planner position has opened up, and staff is requesting that
funds, allocated on November 5th for reimbursement of moving expenses for the airport manager position, be reallocated to help cover the cost for recruitment for both open positions.
Mr. Zimmerman pointed out that the airport manager position was filled by an in-house candidate; therefore, the moving expenses did not need to be reimbursed.
Responding to Councilwoman Keolker-Wheeler's inquiry regarding the necessity for this recruitment effort considering the current state of the economy, Mr. Zimmerman stated that the
availability of professional qualified transportation planners is scarce and the City is having difficulty filling those positions. Explaining that Sound Transit and private consulting
firms have put a great demand on transportation planners over the past couple years, he noted that the private sector pays well and it is difficult for the public sector to match those
salary levels.
MOVED BY CLAWSON, SECONDED BY KEOLKER-WHEELER, COUNCIL APPROVE CONSENT AGENDA ITEM 7.l. AS PRESENTED. CARRIED.
CORRESPONDENCE
Citizen Comment: Zender – Whitworth Ave S Vacation, St. Anthony Church (VAC-00-003)
A letter was read from Fr. Gary Zender, Pastor of St. Anthony Parish, 314 S. 4th St., Renton, 98055, requesting that the street vacation request for Whitworth Ave. S. (VAC-00-003) be
placed on the Council meeting agenda for prompt consideration and approval now that the parish has addressed the concerns of the affected neighbors.
At the request of Mayor Tanner, Planning/Building/Public Works Administrator Gregg Zimmerman reported on the status of the Whitworth Ave. S. vacation request. He said that the administration
was asked to investigate revising the street vacation portion of the City Code to allow land use actions to move forward prior to approval of the vacation. Currently, City Code requires
that a vacation request has to be finalized before the first public hearing is held on the land use action. On September 17th, Council approved the street vacation revisions to the
City Code, and the ordinance is scheduled for first reading on January 7, 2002.
Continuing, Mr. Zimmerman stated that Council had advised the parish to conduct more public outreach with the neighboring residents, and had also requested that the parish submit a site
plan. He reported that the City has not yet received a site plan or construction schedule from the parish. Chief Administrative Officer Jay Covington suggested that the administration
write a letter to the parish to inform them that the City is still waiting for the additional information.
