ROLL CALL OF COUNCILMEMBERS TONI NELSON, Council President; RANDY CORMAN; DON PERSSON; KING PARKER; TERRI BRIERE; KATHY KEOLKER-WHEELER; DAN CLAWSON.  CITY STAFF IN ATTENDANCE JESSE TANNER, Mayor; JAY COVINGTON, Chief Administrative Officer; LAWRENCE J. WARREN, City Attorney; BONNIE WALTON, City Clerk; GREGG ZIMMERMAN, Planning/Building/Public Works Administrator; JIM SHEPHERD, Community Services Administrator; SYLVIA ALLEN, Recreation Director; DEREK TODD, Assistant to the CAO; ACTING COMMANDER KENT CURRY, Police Department.  ADMINISTRATIVE REPORT Chief Administrative Officer Jay Covington reviewed a written administrative report summarizing the City’s recent progress towards goals and work programs adopted as part of its business plan for 2002 and beyond. Items noted included: During the month of May, more than 1,000 Renton School District third grade students learned about City government and services as they toured different areas of the City. The Recreation Division received a $500 grant from the United States Tennis Association for the purpose of expanding summer tennis opportunities for youth.  Sound Transit: HOV Improvement Projects, Perpetual Easement for BNSF Railroad Planning/Building/Public Works Administrator Gregg Zimmerman gave an update on Sound Transit issues. He reported that the May 25th issue of the South County Journal contained an article about the City's dissatisfaction with Sound Transit, specifically with the likelihood that Sound Transit will not build any HOV direct access interchange ramps in Renton, as proposed in Sound Move, due to cost estimate inflation. The cost estimate for the interchange is now $160 million, which is twice the amount of the allocated expenditure in Renton of approximately $80 million. In addition, only two of the four express bus routes proposed by Sound Move in Renton are actually in operation. Mr. Zimmerman stated that the administration is concerned that Renton residents may not get a fair return on the tax money they are paying for the Sound Transit improvements.   Mr. Zimmerman explained that on March 22nd, the City sent a letter to Sound Transit expressing Renton's concerns regarding the cost estimates for the HOV direct access ramp, and requesting that Sound Transit agree to a contingency plan to build other projects in Renton in case the HOV ramp is not affordable. Meanwhile, he reported that Sound Transit has requested that the City grant a perpetual easement to Burlington Northern Santa Fe (BNSF) Railroad on City property (approximately 16,000 square feet) east of the BNSF railroad tracks so that the railroad can install a retaining wall and switching equipment for a control point and turnouts on City property. This improvement will assist the operation of the Tukwila Commuter Rail Station, and enable Sound Transit to introduce a third commuter rail train by September. Continuing, Mr. Zimmerman stated that unfortunately, Sound Transit and BNSF have a contractor under contract who is performing construction before obtaining a construction permit and acquiring the needed perpetual easement from Renton. He indicated that the delay in obtaining the permit and easement is not the City's fault or responsibility since proper project management dictates that permits and property rights be obtained before starting construction, which was not done in this case.

Mr. Zimmerman explained that the administration wants to assist Sound Transit but at the same time, wants assurance that the $80 million proposed in Sound Move for Renton projects will be spent in Renton. He said that the administration has requested both a letter and a Sound Transit Board resolution committing to spending the money in Renton, if not on the direct access ramp, on other Renton-related projects. Mr. Zimmerman reported that City staff is in the process of meeting with Sound Transit in order to create a contingency plan of projects, with priority given to funding the Strander Blvd. extension project and leasing parking spaces in the Downtown Parking Garage, along with other transit oriented projects. Following discussion, Mayor Tanner confirmed that Council agreed not to grant the perpetual easement until Sound Transit agrees, via an agreement and resolution, to develop a contingency plan of Renton projects.

OLD BUSINESS Committee of the Whole Finance: Year-End Fund Balance Use, Pavilion Building Renovation Council President Toni Nelson presented a report regarding the Pavilion Building renovation. At its workshop held on May 17, 2002, the Committee of the Whole reviewed potential uses for the Pavilion Building. Also reviewed were cost estimates associated with several scenarios that included renovation of the existing building and construction of a new building at the same location. After discussing various alternatives, the Committee of the Whole recommended that the existing Pavilion Building be retained and that improvements be made to the façade of the building and to the interior. These renovations should be consistent with using the building as an exhibition hall where such activities as a farmers market, craft or antique shows, and other public events could take place. Funding for the design and renovation of the Pavilion Building for this purpose is estimated not to exceed $1.5 million, and would come from the $2.3 million currently appropriated and allocated within the Capital Improvement Fund for Pavilion Building improvements.   The Committee requested that the following information be provided to Council for review prior to completion of the design phase of this project: Detailed cost estimates for renovation to meet building code, including seismic reinforcement, life safety systems, replacement of windows, interior wall finishes, and the construction of restrooms. Construction of a kitchen is not to be considered; Two or three conceptual drawings of façade improvements; and Separate cost estimates for upgrades to mechanical systems (HVAC) and energy code requirements. The Committee recommended that the City Council authorize the Administration to proceed with the design and renovation of the Pavilion Building in conformance with the above criteria. MOVED BY NELSON, SECONDED BY PARKER, COUNCIL CONCUR IN THE COMMITTEE REPORT AS AMENDED TO REMOVE THE WORDS "AND RENOVATION" FROM THE LAST SENTENCE OF THE REPORT. CARRIED.

Finance: Year-End Fund Balance Use, Swimming Pool Council President Toni Nelson presented a report regarding the construction of a Family Aquatic Center to replace the Henry Moses Pool. At its workshop held on May 17, 2002, the Committee of the Whole reviewed several options for constructing a new swimming/leisure pool to replace the Henry Moses Pool, which was closed in 1997. The Committee reviewed the 1997 recommendations of the Citizens' Pool Task Force, and considered updated cost estimates for both construction and operating costs of indoor and outdoor pools at the Cedar River Park site. The Committee of the Whole recommended that an outdoor Family Aquatic Center similar to option 3A be designed and constructed at the Cedar River Park site at a cost not to exceed $5 million, and that staff be authorized to begin the design process now. The design should incorporate the possible future enclosure of part of the Aquatics Center (the lap pool). The Committee further recommended that $5 million be appropriated from unallocated year-end fund balance for this purpose. MOVED BY NELSON, SECONDED BY CORMAN, COUNCIL CONCUR IN THE COMMITTEE REPORT.

The squadron has now been asked to represent the Pacific Coast Region in the National Competition to be held later this month in Colorado Springs, Colorado. The squadron requested assistance from the community in helping with the cost of airfare to send the young cadets to the National Competition. The Committee recommended that the City provide funding in the amount of $1,000 to assist in the cost of airfare for the young cadets in the Renton Squadron's Color Guard.

Planning & Development Committee Development Services: Permit Review Process, 120-Day Goal Exemptions Planning and Development Committee Chair Keolker-Wheeler presented a report regarding the 120-day permit process ordinance. The Renton Municipal Code has a provision requiring that City staff must take no more than 120 days to process permit applications. Originally, this requirement was put in place because of State law. The State law provision expired by its own terms. The Committee recommended that the City of Renton retain this requirement. However, the Committee also recommended that the City clarify its intentions regarding the 120-day provision. Specifically, it is not the intent of the City of Renton to create any claims for applicants in the event the City is not able to meet the 120-day deadline. Legislation has been drafted, reflecting changes consistent with this clarification. The Committee further recommended that the ordinance regarding this matter be presented for first reading.
