AUDIENCE COMMENT
Citizen Comment: Johnson – Spencer Court Apartments Alley, City Parking Lot Noise (Wells Ave S)
Arland "Buzz" Johnson, 334 Wells Ave. S., Apt. 221, Renton, 98055, stated that although the police are monitoring the activity in the City parking lot located to the north of the Spencer
Court Apartment building located on Wells Ave. S., problems with noise, especially on Friday nights, continue to occur. He suggested that the City seek a long-term solution to the
problem such as adopting noise or no-loitering ordinances, or closing the parking lot from 2:00 a.m. to 6:00 a.m. In regards to the early-morning noise generated by the fans used by
Service Linen Supply located to the south of the apartment building, Mr. Johnson reported that Service Linen agreed to start their fans later in the morning.
Mr. Johnson also expressed his concern about the alley located behind the Spencer Court Apartment building, saying that there are plans to resurface it and to install speed bumps which
may cause difficulty for the residents. He also noted that residents must cross the alley when they exit through the rear of the apartment building to get to their parking lot. Mr.
Johnson recommended that the alley be closed off or rerouted.
Council President Nelson noted that unfortunately, the Spencer Court Apartment building was built in a noisy area. Councilmembers questioned whether the alley was public or private
property, and Mayor Tanner asked Planning/Building/Public Works Administrator Gregg Zimmerman to investigate the matter.

of the City View Short Plat (SHP-98-173).
Councilwoman Keolker-Wheeler pointed out that there were a number of problems associated with the City View Short Plat, and she questioned whether all the conditions of the plat have
been met as there were complaints from neighboring residents, especially pertaining to drainage and erosion problems. Development Services Director Neil Watts stated that the City
has not received any complaints from the neighbors in over a year. He reported that the drainage and erosion control issues were addressed, and he assured Council that the developer
met all plat conditions.

Item 5.h.
Public Works: Referendum 51 Support, Statewide Transportation Projects
Planning/Building/Public Works Department recommended adoption of a resolution in support of Washington State's Referendum 51 (Engrossed Substitute Senate Bill 6347), to be placed on
the November 2002 ballot, which is for the funding of statewide transportation projects including an SR-167 Corridor Study, improvements to increase capacity on I-405 in Renton, and
completion of HOV lanes on SR-167.
Councilwoman Keolker-Wheeler questioned why this item was listed as Council concur as she was of the understanding that Council had agreed that prior to taking any action on ballot items,
a pro and con discussion on the item would take place for the Council and public's benefit.
Pointing out that the City has supported this issue from the beginning, Mayor Tanner stated that he assumed he had the support of Council; however, he had no objections if Council needed
additional time to consider the issue.
Councilmembers Parker and Nelson agreed that a pro and con discussion should be held on this issue, but due to the short time line, recommended moving forward with approving the resolution.
Chief Administrative Officer Jay Covington stated that he would try to schedule a special presentation for the August 19th Council meeting providing he can find representatives to
speak both for and against the issue.
Council agreed to revisit the matter on August 19th, and it was noted that the absent Councilmembers would then have an opportunity to vote on the resolution as well.
CORRESPONDENCE

line capacity to accommodate future expansion of the City's sewer system which fulfilled a requirement of the Parkside Court development (PP-01-012) located in the vicinity of SE 2nd
Pl. and Lyons Ave. SE. MOVED BY BRIERE, SECONDED BY KEOLKER-WHEELER, COUNCIL REFER THIS MATTER TO THE UTILITIES COMMITTEE. CARRIED.

Transportation (Aviation) Committee
Transportation: Strander Blvd/SW 27th St Connection, WSDOT Grant, CAG-94-054
Transportation (Aviation) Committee Member Keolker-Wheeler presented a report regarding the Strander Blvd./SW 27th St. Connection project. In 1994, the City and the Washington State
Department of Transportation (WSDOT) signed a local agency agreement authorizing the City to receive $344,000 in Federal funds (Resolution No. 3052). In 1999, the Puget Sound Regional
Council (PSRC) awarded an additional $746,000 in Federal funds for this project. However, due to funding circumstances, PSRC is not able to obligate funding until the new Federal Transportation
Act is passed. The City is requesting Advanced Construction. When the new Transportation Act is passed, if it allows Advance Construction funding, the City will receive $746,000.
Per the WSDOT agreement form, there is no guarantee of reimbursement. It depends on approval of TEA-21 funding in the next Federal Transportation Act. However, the Administration
is confident that funding will be approved.
The Committee recommended Council approve the resolution and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to enter into the local agency agreement supplement and any subsequent agreements for
preliminary engineering funding for the Strander Blvd./SW 27th St. Connection (CAG-94-054). Matching funding in the amount of $116,428 will come from the SR-167 I/C /SW 27th St./Strander
Blvd. Corridor Project #7, in the Six-Year Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) 2003-2008. MOVED BY KEOLKER-WHEELER, SECONDED BY BRIERE, COUNCIL CONCUR IN THE COMMITTEE REPORT.
CARRIED. (See page 313 for resolution.)
Transportation: Traffic Calming
Transportation (Aviation) Committee Member Keolker-Wheeler presented a report regarding the traffic calming menu of options. The Committee reviewed the proposed traffic calming menu
of options and process. The menu of options consists of a two-tiered approach. Tier 1 are removable or passive measures, and Tier 2 are permanent or active measures. Passive measures,
such as reader boards, signage and channelization, require minimal investment and can literally be removed. Active or permanent measures require construction and cannot be easily removed.
Tier 1 measures should be implemented first, and if they do not work, turn to the more permanent Tier 2 measures.
The Transportation Division will receive requests for traffic calming from neighborhoods and citizens. Because these measures affect an area, requests should come from a neighborhood
or homeowners association. This assures area-wide support for implementing a traffic calming measure. If the issue cannot be resolved with the Tier 1 measure, the Transportation Division
will evaluate the issue, identify Tier 2 options that are appropriate for that situation, and work with the neighborhood to determine which of the appropriate options they prefer.
This recommended process is similar to traffic calming programs in other cities. Judging from their experiences, traffic calming could be an expensive program both in terms of manpower
and materials and construction. If it is determined that this new program will require dedicated funding or additional staff resources for effective implementation, options will be
brought back in the coming months for consideration by Council.
The Transportation Committee recommended that the Council authorize the Mayor to implement the traffic calming process and menu of options. MOVED BY KEOLKER-WHEELER, SECONDED BY BRIERE,
COUNCIL CONCUR IN THE COMMITTEE REPORT. CARRIED.
Councilwoman Keolker-Wheeler thanked City staff for their work on this project, and stated that these traffic calming options offer new opportunities for assistance with neighborhood
traffic problems.

Community Services Committee
Community Services: Maplewood Golf Course Water Treatment Facility Redesign
Community Services Committee Vice Chair Clawson presented a report regarding the Maplewood Treatment Facility site design at the Maplewood Golf Course. The Committee recommended concurrence
in the staff recommendation for the golf course to pay for the redesign fees to locate the water utility treatment facility adjacent to the east side of the driving range for an amount
not to exceed $50,000; allocate an additional $20,000 for the netting design associated with the 52-stall parking addition; and allocate $10,000 for golf course architect project coordination,
meetings, and plan and specification review. The total cost in the amount of $80,000 will be funded from the golf course un-designated fund balance. MOVED BY CLAWSON, SECONDED BY
PARKER, COUNCIL CONCUR IN THE COMMITTEE REPORT. CARRIED.
Human Services: 2003 CDBG Funds Allocation
Community Services Committee Vice Chair Clawson presented a report recommending concurrence in the staff recommendation that the 2003 Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) estimated
allocation of $388,179 be distributed according to the Human Services Advisory Committee recommendations as follows:
CDBG PUBLIC SERVICES
Communities in Schools of Renton $13,000
Community Health Centers of King County $13,000
ElderHealth NW/Connection $9,000

Children's Therapy Center $45,000

Friends of Youth/Griffin Home $43,930
Total $323,930
The Community Services Committee also recommended adoption of the Contingency Plan for 2003 CDBG funding as adopted by the Human Services Advisory Committee should amounts available
for 2003 programs increase or decrease. Should there be an increase or decrease in CDBG public services funding, it is recommended that any increase or decrease in funding be applied
proportionately based on the project's percentage of the total CDBG public services allocation.
If there is an increase in CDBG capital funding, it is recommended that all projects, with the exception of the King County Housing Repair Program, be increased proportionately. To
determine the proportional amount of the increase, the percentage calculations shall not include the amount allocated to the King County Housing Repair Program.
If there is a decrease in CDBG capital funding, it is recommended that any decrease be applied proportionately to all projects with the exception of the City of Renton Minor Housing
Repair Program. To determine the proportional amount of the decrease, the percentage calculations shall not include the amount allocated to the City of Renton Minor Housing Repair
Program. MOVED BY CLAWSON, SECONDED BY PARKER, COUNCIL CONCUR IN THE COMMITTEE REPORT.*

A letter from Councilman Persson was read into the record regarding the CDBG fund allocation to the Griffin Home as he was unable to attend the Council meeting. In his letter, Mr.
Persson expressed his concern about the potential expansion of the Griffin Home past the current 24 residents. He stated that although he is not against the current plan to expand
and provide services for a total population of 24 residents, providing funding for the Griffin Home may indicate that the City is endorsing the facility and its services, and this endorsement
could be used to raise money for expanding the home and the number of offenders served at that location. He stated that the City needs assurance that the facility will not expand in
the future to house more residents. Mr. Persson requested that Council consider holding this issue until his return so he can participate in the discussion.
Councilman Clawson explained that approval of the funding is needed in order for the Griffin Home to obtain matching funds from another source, and he pointed out that the issue had
already been delayed a few weeks and further delay may harm the Griffin Home in obtaining matching funding. Mr. Clawson stated that a Griffin Home representative did meet with the
Committee to address concerns about the project, and he recommended going forward with the Committee report.
Development Services Director Neil Watts confirmed that the Griffin Home is comprised of 13 separate platted parcels, but explained that expansion of the existing buildings would require
a conditional use permit. Potentially, a smaller group home could be built on one of the parcels that is not already encroached upon by the existing buildings without a conditional
use permit. Mr. Watts stated that the Griffin Home plans to construct two group homes for six occupants each, and will reduce the number of occupants in the existing buildings. He
noted that the Griffin Home intends to remain at 24 residents.
Councilman Parker indicated that although he understands Councilman Persson's concerns, this is not the proper venue for discussion of density and development matters.
*MOTION CARRIED.
Council discussion ensued regarding the Griffin Home and the service it provides.

The Community Services Committee also recommended adoption of the Contingency Plan for the 2003 General Fund as adopted by the Human Services Advisory Committee should the amount of
funding increase. Should the amount available for allocation to human services increase for 2003, it is recommended that Metropolitan Images/Renton Youth Day be funded in the amount
of $2,500. This funding will be contingent upon Metropolitan Images submitting budget and performance measures that are accurate, and agreeable to the Human Services Advisory Committee
or Human Services staff. If additional funding is available, it is recommended that the Multi-Service Center's Energy Crisis Intervention Program be funded to a maximum of $5,000.
The amount of the allocation will be affirmed during the 2003 Budget process. MOVED BY CLAWSON, SECONDED BY PARKER, COUNCIL CONCUR IN THE COMMITTEE REPORT.*
Responding to Council inquiry regarding the Griffin Home funding, Human Services Manager Karen Bergsvik stated that the Griffin Home has submitted one application for the General Fund
and one for CDBG funding. She explained they had requested General Fund funding in April because they needed a local community match in order to obtain Housing Opportunity funds in
the amount of $330,000. At that time, Council requested that they use the existing General Fund process. Stating that the Griffin Home needs the local funding commitment in 2002 even
though they are applying for 2003 funds, Ms. Bergsvik noted that the allocation of $3,000 from the General Fund is for the local match.
*MOTION CARRIED.
Responding to Councilwoman Keolker-Wheeler's inquiry regarding the decrease in funding for the Way Back Inn, Ms. Bergsvik explained that since the Way Back Inn is able to obtain funds
through other sources, the Human Services Advisory Committee decided to fund some new programs that do not have any other funding sources.
