The matter of Encroachment by Mr. Charles Shane's building on a 10 foot strip of property not zoned B-1 was considered and in view of the fact that the following con- ditions have changed since the rezoning, (a) withdrawal of Edwards Deed, (b) information of additional right of way deeded to the City, it was recommended that a Variance be granted for the building as started, but that until the street pattern is fully established the zoning should remain as is, it being possible to effect a desirable street arrangement without disturbing the proposed building. Inquiry was made as to whether Mr. Shane was agreeable to the propcscd arrangement and inasmuch as Mr. Dobson, counsel for Mr. Shane had left the Council Chamber, further action on the matter was deferred until later in the meeting. 2. Relative to the referral of the Sanitation Committee report to transfer only the Billing operation from the Utilities Department unto the City Treasurer's office, it was recommended by the Council As A Whole to concur in this transfer of Billing only at this time. Moved by Delaurenti, seconded by Hulse, to concur in the recommendation of the Council As A Whole. Carried. Moved by Trimm, seconded by Delaurenti, to refer the matter to the Ordinance Committee. Carried. Mr. Dobson had returned to the Council Chamber and upon inquiry advised he had made a request that Mr. Shane be present to determine whether or not he was willing to accept the condition proposed for leaving the 10 ft. strip under "G" zoning. Mr. Shane would be present later in the meeting but inasmuch as it was not known whether he would arr-'_ve prior to adjournment of the meeting, it was moved by Dullahant, seconded by Bruce,- to defer action on the matter until the next meeting of the Council. Carried. Councilman Reid, Chairman of the Street and Alley Committee; presented his Committee report which was read as follows: I.' Petition.fox :Vacation of a 16, ft.' alleyway in- Block 18, Renton; Highlands +was considered. The Petition contained fourteen signatures of'•residents on "G". Place and abutting the alleyway. Inasmuch as this is an undeveloped alley having doub.tful. value insofar as -the public isconcerned, it was .recommended that a Public Hearing bet:held on ... the matter, Moved by Dullahant, seconded by Delaurenti; �ta concur' in the recommendation, of the Street and Alley Committee with referral to the Ordinance Qommittee for a Resolution setting the Date of July 9, 1963 for the Hearing.

Moved by Dullahant, seconded by. Dahlquist, to concur in the recommendation of the Street and alley Committee. Carried. 4. Request from Mr. Nathan E. Ward for acquisition of public use area - Since the property in question provides the only access to a large public use area to the South in the same block, no disposition could be made, without considering all of the public use area within Block 26 of the Corrected Plat of Renton Highlands . Even in the event the City were to receive petition from all of the abutting property owners, it is questionable whether the City would have the authority to vacate. this Public Use Area., inasmuch as� such area-was established. by the .Fedir.al Government.

A letter was read from Mr. Paul S : Ford, Director of Taxes; The Boeing Company, in rep-,,- to a letter from City Clerk Nelson inquiring in regard to payments in lieu of taxes heretofore collected from the Department of Defense under Public Law 86-498 on certain buildings which have subsequently been acquisitioned by the Boeing Company. Taxes to be allocated to the City by The Boeing Company for 1963 and comparison made to prior payments in 1962 to establish an increase being evident were outlined ay"Mr. Ford anC that the property will be appearing on the rolls for assessment in 1964. No further reference to in-lieu-of-tax payments was made except that it was pointed out that Boeing did not participate in the assessment negotiations Under the aforementioned Public Tx--w nor had it any responsibility for payments made thereunder. Inquiry was made by Council as to whether the City would thereby assume that moneys were not to be forthcoming as budgated. It was further pointed out that Pacific Car & Foundry in the same circumstances had made the payment in the year the property was under private ownership.. After further discussion of the obligation it was moved by Custer, seconded by Dahlquist; to refer the matter to the City Attorney to report back. Carried. A letter from '.:;harles Shane requested that an error be corrected on zoning of a 10 ft. strip of property and Mr. Dobson, Counsel for Mr. Shane advised that this was to pursue the matter which had been deferred from the previous week, which would be probably coming up under Committee reports, but in any event on which they would like to be heard.. Moved D;7 Garrett, seconded by Custer, to refer the letter to the Building Department_. Carried. A Petition c,-staining approximately 25 signatures requested the City to place Stop signs at the intersection of "N" Street and 9th Avenue North in the interest of safety- to the children of the area. Moved by Custer, seconded by Dahlquist, to refer the matter to the Street and Alley Committee and the Street Commissioner with Power to Act, Carried. A letteM- from the Fourge Company, Builders, by Jerry Goodall, requested Council action in release of Building Permits which have not been issued due to question re- garding participation in future road improvements,_ (Property formerly owned by Mike Saruent) Mr. Jensen advised of Agreements which had been executed by property owners in the subject area in conjunction with Permits for building to insure proper extension of the existing -right of way. City Engineer Wilson pointed out that a Quit Claim Deed was given by Mr. Sargent but the document has not been recorded pending committment to the right of way improvements. Mr, Goodall has indicated that he is willing to sign the agreement to participate in the road improvement. A bond was recommended as good faith.Moved by Custer, seconded by Gianini, to allow Mr. Goodall to proceed upon posting of adequate bond to insure improvements, This was adequate according to Mr. Jensen and .the pending motion carried. A latter was read,which had been directed to Dr.. Robert Evoy from the Renton Hospital Board,advising that the application for permission to use the southerly portion of hospital property along 4th Place `.'or parking was denied . Consideration is being given to the establishment of such a parking area along the East side of the property which it is felt would be more suitable for both the public and hospital employees, it being closer to the hospital entrance.

Shane Property Rezone rezone of the whole property to B-1 as recommended by the Planning Commission.

A letter from City Attorney Shellan re�bktod upoh referral of legality relative to Boeing Company request for direct hookL-up to Metro Sewer facilities that such arrangement is permissible provided the City gives its written consent thcreto. it was suggested the City first consider whit loss of tevenUe would be sustained as compared to the cost of the improvement and tnaihtenahce involved 6 fore taking any final action. Insofar as the request for waiver of sewer Assessment charges for Boeing Buildings 10--60 and 10-65 is concerned; this is a matter of policy which the Council will have to establish and the possible loss of revenue and matter of precedent as far as other large industrial consumers are concerned should be carefully studied. Councilman Custer advised this matter was in Committee and the report of the Sanitation Committee would be made later in the meeting under Committee Reports. A letter from City Attorney Shellan, directed to Mr. Paul S. Ford, Director of Taxes, The Boeing Company, acknowledged letter relative to "payments in lieu of taxes," and con— curring with remarks as to Boeing acquisition of the governmental property and that up to that time the City, School District and others were receiving regular payment in lieu of taxes pursuant to acts of Congress, including Public Law 86-498. ' Tbe whole purpose and ihtent of such Congressional action was to compensate municipal government for services rendered on the same basis and extent as if such property were privately owned and on the tax rolls. Other large industry within the city on a voluntary basis has made proper payment, each business concerned usually expressing willingness to pay its pro rata share of the cost of local government, it being fully realized that the City's expenses are furnishing services to the community and Being *facilities in particular do not lessen by reason of a one year vacuum in the tax revenues available to the City. The Budget requires l*pry of sufficient amount of revenue to meet demands of continuing proper governmental fungi— tions:_ and it. is imperative that the City receive its full share of taxes from all proper— ties not exempt by law. Mr. Ford's reference to tax increase was noted to be substantially due to creation of new facilities by his Company it being pointed out that greater demands by business, industry and the citizenry have caused the cost of local government to rise, attention being called to Boeing's request for waiver of revenues due the City by allowing direct hook—up to Metro facilities. Mr. Shellan offered to meet for discussion of the matter.

Steen, announced the annual meeting of the Board of Equalization in the King County Assessor's office on July 1, 1963, the City to be notified if complaints have been filed. Councilm_:n Walt Reid and Hugh Bruce are the present appointees for representing the City of Renton at said Hearing. A letter from City Attorney Shellan was read advising,relative to the proposed Easement between Arne G. Goedecke and Puget Sound Power and Light in the Tiffany Park playground area, that the City having no ownership or interest in the subject property should not appear as Grantor on said instrument. There are no objections to the Easement as to form so long as the proper hold harmless agreement is contained and the facilities are completely underground, however, clarification should be made inasmuch as such above ground st:^uctures would undoubtedly interfere with .the operation of a park or playground if and when instituted. -2- Minutes of the Renton City Council Meeting 6-24-63 COMMUNICATIONS: (cont.)

Greathouse, outlining basis for joint participation of Puget Drive Program between Puget Properties, Inc. and the City of Renton covering: Section I. of Pu-,et Drive, extending from Talbot Road to 11th Avenue South to Benson Road at approximately S.E. 156th Street. a. Puget Properties in 1963 to deed the necessary right-of-way to Renton, place approximately 115,000 cubic yards of roadway fill and install necessary drainage to protect the fill, an estimated total of ;54,000 in land value and construction costs. b. City of Renton will, in 1964, ballast and pave three traffic lanes with necessary drainage facilities and pay incidental engineering and traffic device costs, an estimated total of 05,600 plus related contingencies. Section II. of Puget Drive, extending from Benson Road to North-South centerline of Section 20: a. Puget Properties in 1963 to deed necessary right-of-way to Renton, exca- vate to grade using material to fill Section I, relocate gas mains and install the necessary drainage to protect the work, an estimated total of $110,000 in land value and construction cost. b. City of Renton will accept responsibility for the balance of work neces- sary to complete Section II. and will investigate all sources of income from benefitted area. Puget Properties requests earliest possible consideration of Council on above proposals. 1,1r, Greathouse addressed Council at this point; advising that this proposal is but a small portion of the overall work. The offer to the City is designed to take advantage of the large contract Puget Properties has in the shopping center area, which is the subject of three letters to be presented to Council, representing some 450,000 cubic yards of dirt -- roadway fill here only 100,000 cubic yards. Requested Council's consideration of matter after these letters have been presented. (2) Petition and application for vacation of the following described streets and alleys (as illustrated on area map identified as E.-hibit "A") noting Puget Proper- ties, Inc. to be 1001ll owner of abutting properties: 1. That portion of 9th Avenue South between the East margin of 94th Avenue South and West margin of 96th Avenue South. 2.

The sixteen-foot alley in Block No. 15 between the West margin of 94th Avenue South and the East line of PSH No. 5-C. (3) Project Engineer Greathouse 's letter to City Engineer Wilson, advising that studies for the sanitary trunking and interceptor systems for the areas known as Renton Hill, Talbot Hill and East slopes of Talbot Hill, the topography of area, per Exhibit "A", dictates need for three separate trunking systems to service entire drainage pattern with the westerly boundary defined as the Renton to Kent Freeway, PSH No. 5; these three separate trunking systems to flow to an interceptor sewer which will be the connection to the existing Metro 108 inch trunk; temporary sewerage facilities will be required to re-route the flow and allots City sufficient time to remove valuable pumping equipment. Council approval requested on this portion of the Comprehensive Plan. Upon inquiry regarding this Southeast Renton Sanitary Trunk Plan, City Engineer Wilson produced, as a matter of record, supplemental letter received from Mr. Greathouse for a proposal to re-install the existing sewage lift station near the North edge of PSH-1 on Shattuck Street or to modify the temporary pump facilities to be constructed to a permanent status in the event that Metro does not agree to construct the gravity interceptor in accordance with its past policies. Approval of above to be made with the -5-- understanding 8/5/63 that Puget Properties will relocate and restore permanent type service, whether by gravity trunk or pumping, Upon request of Mayor Aliment, Utilities Supt, Andersen elaborated on proposal informing Council that his discussion of matter with Puget Properties Engineers and City Engineer Wilson produced only a possible question on the temporary line that would be in use during their construction period. Puget Properties is assuming maintenance of this line during construction period because it must be moved from time to time. Temporary lift station will be City's responsibility; however on the temporary line our responsibility will not exceed what we are now doing in maintaining present lift station. Guarantee has been received from pump supplier that they will function properly for a one-year period. City Attorney Shellan informed Council of requirement for City Engineer Wilson to certify Puget Properties as the recorded owner of property, Letter (2) above, setting public hearing date on matter for not less than twenty days or more than sixty days thereafter. Resolution must also be prepared to cover. Moved by Dahlquist, seconded by Custer, to set September 9, 1963, at 8:00 p.m. in the Council Chambers, as the Public Hearing Date on the Puget Properties Street and Alley Vacation request. Carried. It was further moved by Trimm, seconded by Custer, to refer the above two Puget Properties package deals, of requested street and alley vacations, and the matter of street construction and sewer project, to the Council As A Whole for consideration in meeting scheduled for Thursday, August 8th, at 8:00 P.M. , Council Chambers. Carried. A joint recommendation of the Engineering Department, Street Department, and the Street & Alley Committee was read, citing soil conditions encountered on 12th Avenue North which make it impossible to control the width of trench with the result of losing more street than anticipated, and requesting that this work be deleted from the work items to be performed by the Lundberg Construction Company, to be assigned instead to the Street Department for required restoration work; further that the $3,500 contract amount 'be' transferred to the Street Fund to cover such costs. Moi'red -by Poli, seconded by Bruce, to concur in the recommendation above. Carried. A *letter-proposal from C E. Leman, 519'ThirdAvenue, Seattle, for consideration `off a five-year contract with .the City of Renton for authority to place and maintain advertising signs, including- parking regulations, in suitable metal folders affixed' to tops- of parking meters,-'for the consideration of 75¢ per parking post, per month, for all posts upon which such advertising signs -and parking regulation 'signs are 'plaeed, �.

Assessed.latd,.valuation for purposes of taxation is $6,790.00 and the improvements.._.are assessed at $18,150.00; at twice the land assessments plus one-half the improvement assessment.

COMMUNICATIONS: A letter was read from Mr. and Mrs. Earl McLaughlin advising of existing cloud on the title to their tract of property by reason of faulty quit claims made some years ago in connection with the widening by the County of Goodwin Street, Due to use of the wrong commencement point the description is inaccurate as recorded, making an encroachment on the tract which, however, does not form any part of the improved and paved 60 ft. right of way known as Goodwin Street. Mr. McLaughlin is selling the property and inasmuch as the City has annexed this area in June of this year, it has succeeded to the rights and obligations of the County in respect thereto.

(A proper legal description to be determined by the City Engineer for the Deed) The title survey also disclosed that no title or document of record exists on the asphalt road on the -south" boundary of 'the tract which right-of-way, known as ��qoiith 133rd Street (extending west from 91st Avenue So.) is located partyly upon the subject tract according- to descriptions thereof.

It is the position of the Railroad that the work was done in compliance with the contract that had been entered into with the City and that the amount is still owing.

The law, known as Chapter 35.86 of the Revised Code of Washington, adopted in 1959, declares that the use of real property for off-street parking purposes is a public use and allows financing thereof by means of revenue bonds, genual fund bonds and on-street parking revenue bonds, also permitting the City to establish Local Improvement Districts and finance same in the manner as other L.I.D. 's. The law also permits cities to acquire property by lease, purchase, donation, gift or condemnation. Such property, or any portinn thereof, may also be sold, transferred, exchanged, leased or otherwiLe disposed of by the City when its legislative body has determined that it is no longer suitable or necessary for off-street parking purposes. Detailed provisions were also made including the calling for bids for the operation of parking lot facilities. Before any acquisition for strictly off-street parking facilities,and providing for financing thereof can be undertaken,a plan must be developed by making proper economic and physical surveys as are necessary, including a comprehensive plan for such facilities. One or more public hearings must be held prior to the lease or acquisition of such property and the financing thereof, It would seem mandatory that the foregoing steps have to be complied with before the City can initiate a L.I.D. whether by resolution or one commenced by petition. No final adjudication of this law by the Supreme Court seems in evidence and problems would arise if the City tried to finance such project through bond sale. It was recommended that the City not proceed by regular local improvement district methods for the aforementioned reasons and voluntary contributions by property owners and others to benefit by the parking facilities was recommended. This should bercn a cash basis paid to any contractor who might install the improvement or if the City can do it more cheaply, then the funds would be used therefor. The City Engineer might prepare a pre- liminary sketch dividing the area into three zones with those properties located nearest to .the parking paying aSrelative]}t greater. share than the next two. Any property owner who;'now -has adequate parking in compliance with City Ordinances could not be legally assessed if there is no corresponding benefit. Councilman Custer reported that the Sanitation Committee has ..presented a Petition-for L.L.D. and it would now like.to make the irecommendation that.-it-.be" withdrawn and moved that no L.I.D. be. ,farmed :far,improve- ment l of- the parking lots. The two lots, formerly known.as the Dale--McUndon 1propeities acquired by the City as part of its:l701 program for the purposeslamong`,othdra of estab ' lishing municipal buildings and related-facilities. in the interim, theseiaots ,could be used. for .parking purposes; according to City Attorney Shellan. The pending� motibli.`was seconded. by Poli and ca-tried., Mayor-Alitnent advised of meetings between t:he Citizens Advisory Committee and: the:Adburn group,-for.14 -comparison of park:ing:prablems,)an&*policy.

Communication read from City Attorney Shellan submitted schedules proposed for bond maturity on the proposed North Renton Interchange Issue as prepared by Attorney James Gay of Roberts, Shefelman, Lawrence Gay & Moch. Mr. Gay pointed out that a $400,000.00 bond issue would not be rated either by Moody or Standard & Poor as Moody requires minimum of $600,000.00 issue and Standard & Poor ratings require at least $1,000,000.00. Consequently, the interest rate assumptions presented were based upon a non-rated bond issue, and it was pointed out that all the rates secured are dependent upon market conditions at the time of the sale of the issue. Based upon the present market the following suggestions were presented: 2-10 years, non-callable for prior redemption, 3%;(a five year call would increase the interest rate by approximately 1/8 of 17o to 3-1/8%.) 2-15 year maturity and non-callable, 31-y% interest (5-7 year call provision the interest would increase to 3-3/8%) 2-20 year issue non-callable, 31,% rate of interest(and if callable in 10 years, probably 4-5/8%. ) In view of the City's plans it was recommended that the City provide the shortest term feasible in order to secure the lowest interest rate and interest cost over the life the the issue commensurate with the ability of the taxpayers to service the debt. If property owners would be willing to service annual debt requirements for a non-callable ten (10) year bond issue it was recommended that the issue be set up on that basis. Moved by Delaurenti, seconded by Hulse,that the issue be presented on the ten (10) year noncallable basis. Carried. A letter from Planning Director Jensen submitted Planning Commission recommendations which were read by the Clerk with Council action taken as follows: Recommended that the Highlands Enterprises, Inc. properties, Application No. R-151-63 dated 9-26-63, be rezoned from GS-1 to B-1 with exception of that portion lying East of the gest margin of the Puget Sound Power and Light Co. transmission lines easement.

HEARING: L.I.D. 249 - Final Assessment This being the date set, the Hearing was declared open and Mayor Aliment invited comment from the audience, after Clerk Nelson and City Engineer advised of receiving no written protests. Attorney Walter Acheson addressed the assembly on behalf of Mr. John E. Edwards and made inquiry regarding the assessments which Mr. Edwards received, preliminary and final, as compared to the preliminary and final L.I.D. costs. City Engineer Wilson advised that Mr. Edwards' Assessment had been reduced , from $473.85 to $362.00 on the final due to a good bid being received and ability of the City to make close inspection, the entire cost being lowered approximately $21,000.00 allowing a savings to all assessees .of the District. The side sewers were installed to the property lines. Inquiry from Mr. Coulter. Lot 2, Block 11 was made wherein he had compared his assessment to others and it did not seem equitable. Mr. Neil Hickel also made inquiry regarding his assessment. City Engineer Wilson advised that the square footage method had been used as it was felt to be the most equitable overall mode of assessment although inequities would result in any manner which might be used. Zone & term- ini is prescribed by law unYess another mode is more equitable. The mode chosen was to the best interest of the District, the front foot method less so. Mr. Coulter inquired regarding rights of appeal and City Attorney Shellan advised that the property owner has the right to appeal once the Ordinance is adopted by taking their problem to the Superior Court in Seattle within ten days and appeal any decision of the Council. Mr. Hickel advised that his land had peculiar topography widening in the middle and narro.2ing at the ends which resulted in greater assessment by the chosen method, although it ;,?as a one house parcel which could not be used otherwise. Mr. Dave Nicholson 3013 - 5th Avi E. advocated dividing total cost of the L.I.D. equally among the residents of the District. Councilman Garrett, suggested that inasmuch as the Council was sitting as Board of Equalization, it consider referral of the matter to the Sanitation Committee to review the assessments with the property owners and City Engineer. Mr. Acheson, on behalf of Mr. Edwards inquired regarding depth of sewer service facilities between his vacant properties and the two Maplewood Service stations (Richfield_ and Payless) and running a stub to the Metro line. City Engineer Wilson advised that the installations were made in accordance with feasibility of servicing the properties and that Metro prohibits individual connection to its mains. Mr. George Bair advised of owning properties in Seattle as well as Maplewood and that the assessments in Seattle are made on an equalization basis. It was subsequently moved by Custer, seconded by Hulse, that the Hearing be con- tinued for one week with referral to the Sanitation Committee to meet with the parties interested and the City Attorney and Engineer. Carried. The meeting was arranged for Wednesday, December 18, 1963 at 7:30 p.m. in the Council Chambers. The Hearing was declared continued. Hearing: Proposed Taxicab Ordinance This being the date set the Hearing was declared open and Mr. Bennett Hoffman, Attorney, addressed the Council on behalf of the Renton Radio Cab Company and its owner Mr. Thomas Hogan, requestirg that a meeting be held to discuss various sections of the proposed ordinance appearing restrictive to trade,constituting invasion of private rights and property, and not of best interest to the City of Renton citizens nor his client. City Attorney Shellan advised that the City has the legal right to require display of the driver's picture and that the document was drawn to incorporate many suggestions of the cab company owners themselves made over the years as well as those particular sections of the Seattle Ordinance which mi(lht be well suited to use in this City, with invasion of privacy not being a valid objection. Any clauses which might be objectionable from the standpoint of Mr. Hoff-man's client would be considered if set forth in writing or expressed verbally to Mr. Shellan with specific designation of the objectionable sections. Most other Cities have ordinances of this type. It was pointed out that the clause relating to limit of cabs per population count was requested by the Cab Company. Attorney Hoffman advised that he felt a discussion would allow better understanding as a lawyer would have to interpret it for any layman at present. After further discussion it was moved by Reid, seconded by Dahlquist, to continue -the Hearing one week and there be a meeting with the Attorneys, and Police and License Committee and Police Department to report back., Carried. -2- I 243 Renton City Council Meeting Minutes 12-16-63 COMMUNICATIONS: Application was read from Barei's Tavern owner requesting that Farwest Amusement Company be granted the required license to operate a musi.c.mhchine at the Tavern, and application of-Farv)69t for-+MafterMusic.Machine license was submitted herewith.

Letters were read from the State of Washington Tax Commission and the City Attorney relative to the City's ciaim for rebate of tax paid heretofore on Metro collections for sewage disposal. The Tax Commission outlined RCW 82.04.290 imposing the tax and RCW 82.04.080 defining "gross income of the business" and further set forth Paragraph 6 of Section 5 of the Agreement between the City and Metro, after which it was maintained that the taxes would be a City obligation and oould be recovered by rates and charges i.mp ose d by the .City so .as to meet the covenants; the City binding itself by said agreement with Metro. City Attorney Shellan replied that State Statutes necessitated the elimination of sources of water pollution through a governmental agency such as Metro, thus making it mandatory for cities within the pollution area to join Metro and the City was in no position to act or not to act as far as Metro's sewage disposal was concerned. In regard to Paragraph 6 of Section 5 of the agreement, it was maintained that the City is presently making the charges to cover its costs and is not concerned with or asking for exemptions for payments that accrue strictly to the City's benefit but simply about the charge to be paid to Metro in which the City acts as a collection agent. A further letter read from City Attorney Shellan directed to .Clerk. Nel.snn deems it unlikely that the Tax Commission will voluntarily relinquish the collection of the Uo tax, and that, the view shared in by other City Attorneys is to seek relief from this burden through legislative means, requesting State Representatives and possibly the Association of Washington Cities to aid in resolving this problem. Moved by Custer, seconded by Delaurenti, to refer the matter to the Legislative Committee. Carried.

Henderson, 12932 Langston Road, Seattle 78, Wn. called attention to a parcel of property on the West side of Rainier Avenue between South128thand 129th Streets, across from the Chamber of Commerce Building in Renton, owned by him and leased by Westlake Motors which has flooded and the drains filled with sand and debris. The condition was attributed to installation of sewer system by the City in the vicinity which has caused the water to run across his property which had previously not done so, and by diversion through catch basins causing it to flow in a new direction. Legal action was contemplated if the matter cannot be resolved otherwise. Moved by Hulse, seconded by Custer, to refer the communication to the Street and Alley Committee. Carried. A letter from Col. Donald J. Leehey, 9641 Hilltop Road, Bellevue, Washington as an interested citizen having no connection with the matter, congratulated the Council for the action taken in connection with the 1964 Legal Publications, with specific note being given the continuing picketing denoting unsettled dispute, dhd affirmation of the State Superior Court in upholding the Council decision.

Moved by Reid, seconded by Poli, to refer the matter to the Council As A Whole. Carried. Moved by Custer, seconded by Delaurenti, that the date of February 10, 1964 be set for Hearing on the appeal. Carried. A letter from Mr. Kenneth Lund, Owner of Kenny's Auto Rebuild advised of moving his Auto Rebuild business from a business zone (415 Rainier Avenue) to another business zone (106 Park Street) because of larger building and better facilities and subsequently not being issued a 1964 Business License. The welfare of five employees was deemed to be matter of concern for early disposition . Councilman Pedersen, being personally involved abstained from participating in any action to be taken but requested legal opinion of the City Attorney as to the City's position, The license Was not issued due to an interpretation of the zoning Ordinance which according to Mr. Shellan is somewhat ambiguous in its designations, ovdrlapping in regard to uses and warranting chang6, in which event favorable action in begard to the property owners welfare is primarily to be considered. B-1 allows a public garage, repair shop, battery service station and tire repair shop and L-1 allows auto laundry, - fender and body repair shop and any use permitted in B-1. Mr. Lund took the position that the City allowed other businesses of this nature to operate in B-1 after the Ordinance became effective and since he has not changed the type of business and it tis a repair shop he should be allowed to operate. Planning Director Jensen advised hat in administering the Ordinance body repair was felt to be an L-1 use and not B-1 with repairs of vehicles in service stations intended as B--1 use, and that place where specifically designated,being under L-1 an this instance ,is where it would belong. Moved by Custer that inasmuch as conflict does exist the advice of the City Attorney be followed and Mr. Lund be granted his 1964 Business license- as applied for. The motion was seconded by Poli. Carried. Moved by Custer, seconded by Hulse, that the Clerk advise the Planning Commission of the problem concerning the conflicting portions of the Ordinance,and of the action taken by the Council on this License,so that it might be changed to avoid future Like problems.

Central Garage!: One (1) Portable Roller with trade One (1) Power Grader with trade Four (4) Police Cars with three (3) trades Three (3) Pool Cars with three (3) trades Fire Department: One (1) Pick-up truck, no trade. Moved by Poli, seconded by Custer, to concur in the request for Bid Call and the date of February 10, 1964 for opening thereof. Carried. A letter directed to Street Commissioner Lynch, from City Attorney Shellan was read regarding contention of Mr. Donald Moje that installation by the City of catch basin and curbing during improvement of the road adjoining his property has caused excessive flow of water and accumulation of sand and silt on his property. The State law,affirmed recently by Supreme Court action,states that a City is not liable for accelerating the flow of water through a natural drain as long as the City properly constructs the means of collecting and channeling the water, such as by means of ditches and culverts. According to Street Commissioner Lynch the stream is an all year round water course and the flow is accelerated but the total amount does not differ from the prior condition. The sand and silt complained of apparently comes mostly from the property north of the road and south of the subject property. Various City officials have investigated the matter although no question has been raised as to Mr. Moie's water rights to the creek or whether the Department of Fisheries has approved his arrangement of a pond and damsite. The City cannot do any work on private property relative to the _tand and silt and this problem will have to be resolved by Mr. Moje, possibly by means of a sand trap or other remedies, based upon findings of the City officials to date.

The City-owned 20,000 Lumen Mercury Vapor fixtures would be acquired by the power company under the new proposal and the new rates would apply to the city-owned ornamental system The present annual cost of operation is $56,773.20 and the new plan would be approximate $63,000.00 with the increase however being absorbed by savings of maintenance and repair as well as interest which would be involved.

Councilman Delaurenti requested a Council As A Whole meeting on Tuesday, January 28, at 7:30 p.m. Mayor Aliment invited audience comment at this time and Mr. Donald Malone inquired whether the Planning Commission had made recommendation relative to issuance of a building permit. This has been pending due to parking and loading zone requirements of the Code not being satisfied under present construction plans. Planning Director Jensen advised that in the opinion of the City Attorney Mr. Malone should be allowed to apply for his building permit on the basis of meeting the parking requirement of 500 sq. ft. of building apace for each .parking space provided. However, Mr. Jensen advised that the Ordinance also requires unloading space and if it could not be met a variance should be requested. Mr. Malone's architects had been so advised and no request had been received so no action has been taken by the Planning Commission. Mr. Malone deemed a loading gone to be unwarranted in this instance in view of the type of businesses and inquiry was made as to whether future use would remain the same which could not be guaranteed. The downtown problem was cited as cause for careful con- sideration and it was subsequently moved by Custer, in view of the Attorneys recommenda- tion, to concur with parking requirement of 1 space for each 500 square foot of building. The motion was seconded by Gianini and carried.

The Pledge of Allegiance to the Flag was led by Patrolman Harold Caldwell and Invocation was delivered by the Rev. Glenn Camper, First Baptist Church. Moved by Poli, seconded by Bruce, that the minutes of the previous meeting of 2-24-64 be approved with correction of name of speaker during the Hearing on the Comprehensive Land Use and Arterial Plans and Maps, being Rudy Zaputil and nor Lewis Purcell. Mrs. Margaret Evans submitted letter correcting 2-24-64 minutes and stated that she had wanted it a matter of record that certain changes had been made in regard to the Land Use Map in a certain area. The letter was read and it was moved by Custer, seconded by Bruce, to amend the original motion to include both changes. Planning Director Jensen commented that there were items in the amendments proposed by Mrs. Evans which were not correct. Councilman Garrett stated that the minutes were supposed to show what was said and if that was what Mrs. Evans said it is what the minutes should show. Mr. Jensen advocated that all which was read had not been said. City Clerk Nelson stated that a part then would be an addition to the minutes and the letter should not be entered in its entirety as a matter of record. Mrs. Edwards advised that the B-1 zoning reference was incorrect in the minutes and that she had presented the letter for the Clerk to use her own ,judgment as to deletions. City Clerk Nelson advised this was a matter for Council determination. Further discussion followed including suggestion by Garrett that the letter be made a part of tlu minutes. Question was called for on amendment to the pending motion and carried. The original motion as amended was then voted upon and carried, Mrs. Evans Letter follows: "Re: Hearing held Monday 2-24-64 by the City Council on Proposed Land Use Map. Correction - - Mrs. Evans said- - - - The first Land Use Map of. the Planning Commission showed the area (Dobson-Cugini) we are interested in as entirely yellow or R-1. The John Graham Company works in close collaboration with the Planning Commission. This then must have been their considered opinion because of its close correlation to the :Hain core of their 701 Project. Later the Planning Commission set up a meeting to explain the map to the public by Mr. Jensen and John Graham Company. When Mr. Jensen was questioned regarding the proposed land use of this area as shown per map, he said - -'that the yellow R-1 was the considered opinion as the best use and most compatible with the surrounding area. ' A week or so later it appeared in the newspaper that it was the majority opinion of the Planning Commission that this area (Dobson-Cugini) be R-4. I looked at the map and found that a piece of vellum had been thumb tacked over this area and daubed orange or R-4. Now when the matter is referred to the Council and a Public Meeting called, the Land Use Map shows the vellum removed and the map itself of this area is orange or R-4. Although the City Council, December 17, 1963 executed an agreement regarding this property. Margaret W. Evans.

Moved by Bruce, seconded by Hulse, to refer the request to the Street and .Alley Committee for recommendation. Carried. A letter from Mr. and Mrs. F. H. Dickson advised that they operate Pat's Cafe during the Longacres Racing Season only and requested waiver of payment of water rates Fri for the period that the business is closed at which time the water is turned off and all pipes drained. Moved by Delaurenti, seconded by Custer, to refer the matter to the Fire and (dater Committee. Carried. A letter read from Mr. and Mrs. Paul Ballatore appealed for permission to secure special permit to begin immediate construction on a six-unit, one story apartment building on the corner of 3rd Avenue North and Garden Street. The matter is pending in t.e Planning Commission who has held the matter for further consideration until its meeting of March 25th. Planning Director Jensen explained that the Planning Com- mission has proposed certain revisions in the plot plan so as to eliminate parking prop;=crus as well' as the plans not being in keeping with requirements of the Ordinance regarding S?ecial Permit in R-2 zoning and it is within the realm of reason that the Commission if not satisfied might ask for revisions. Councilman Reid stated that the party's plan met requirements of the Ordinance as presented according to his under- standing and CcunciLman Delaurenti stated that from his impression from the letter the requiremnents are being met and if it has been in the working process since last April there should be no reason for delay. Planning Director Jensen advised that it was a mattes of fact that some things could be met however under the Special Permit the Co::unissicn has the power to make and require certain conditions felt to be in the best nlarni:g interests. The present plan provides that 3rd Avenue North be used as a sidy- street and the Commission feels that 3rd Avenue is more important from a traffic stand!oint than Garden and although the 20 ft. setback would be met on Garden and the 10 ft. on 3rd Avenue, the Commission would like to see the plan fronting on 3rd Avenue with greater setback on both streets and there are various plans which could be used to effect :Nana. In granting the Special Permit the Commission sets its approval upon the p?:;.ns fcr deviation from the present requirements and inasmuch as the present plan does not meet with approval the Commission has not sanctioned it at present but wished to discuss and consider it further and it was felt the Commission has authority to request rQasonable..length of time"for such -.determinations. Councilman Delaurenti inquired whether the buildings as set out meet the line of buildings on both streets and Mr. Ballatore stated they would do so and asked that City Attorney Shellan give his opinion_ regarding setback requirements. City Attorney Shellan requested to look at the plans and then cited setback requirements of the City Code to be 10 ft. for side yards under R-2 and R-3 zonings on abutting streets. Mr. Jensen stated this were true if in this instance the flanking street were 3rd Avenue but that it was possible that 3rd Avenue might be used as an arterial and the Commission therefore recommended the revisions. City Attorney Shellan replied that as he understood it the parties have a ten foot setback on 3rd and around 33 on Garden and the Ordinance under R-2 and 3 requires a 10 foot setback. The Council has been presented with the same problem several times before and not so long ago in property involving 4th Avenue. If the City feels the setback is not sufficient under R-2, R-3 or R-4, and greater setback should be observed and the City may want to widen or increase traffic loads,it cannot arbitrarily require greater than the Ordinance provides. If the City wants to acquire addLtioral property it can negotiate and if the party does not want to negotiate the City will have to buy the property but it cannot require more than the 10 feet. If looking ahead and anticipating what is wanted or will be needed the property should be acquired by buying or purchase through condemnation and this applies to this case or one on 4th Avenue or any other. If needed it should be acquired as the cost after "r buildings are put up would be too costly. The problem is whether 3rd Avenue is to become a 60 ft� right-of-way. Mr. Jensen pointed out that it was so designated on the map which Council :las just adopted being shown as an arterial thereon for carrying traffic East from the area and that some time had been spent to develop an alternative proposal. The Commission felt that at the time this street was developed under their proposal it would not be detrimental to the Ballatore property, that it would not require removal of a substantial portion of its valuation. Inquiry followed as to how many years this I would be effected. -3- { I Minutes of the Renton City Council Meeting 3-2-1964 315 Ballatore Special Permit Request - (cont. ) Mr. Jensen asked for sketches which Mr. Ballatore submitted and proposed plans as well as the original were shown with turning problems being cited where backing out onto 3rd Avenue would be necessary. It was also pointed out that widening of 3rd Avenue might require acquisition of further right of way for sidewalks and if 20 ft. were observed less damage would result to the property thereforethe Planning Commission, being desirous of giving thought to other possible arrangements for a development of this size in the public interest without penalizing the parties in- volved, felt it would like an additional period of time to work out relative details. Mr. Ballatore cited objections to the plan which Mr. Jensen had prepared due to lack of windows which Mr. Jensen stated might be overcome with introduction of light through the roof as well as ventilation with use of glass or plastic as is done frequently in building at this time. Also that this plan was only one arrangement which might be worked out. Mr. Ballatore pointed out the adequacy of his plan as far as setbacks are concerned and pointed out cement patiosto service the units as well as 8 ft. space between the buildings and the rear yard. Mr. Jensen stated that the traffic problem was not being considered and the plan .is too close to 3rd Avenue North according to the viewpoint of the Commission. Coun ilman Gianini inquired regarding amount of parking space and it was stated to be 33 ft.which brought further inquiry by Councilman Bruce as to why it was contended that this was not adequate to turn around in. Mr. Jensen stated the radius required for turning was 32 or 33 ft. and up to 38 for some cars but other vehicles would need to be considered in the maneuver. Mr. L. W. Sanders, owner of adjoining property to the South advised that he as well as other neighbors were quite interested in what type of structure was to go there and he had looked over the plans and fully approved of them and felt that it was going to be good for the community. No parking problem was anticipated it being felt that the 16 ft. right of way could be utilized if it were needed for turn around and anyone who could not turn around in 33 feet should go to driving school. The only problem he can see is the 10 ft. offset, which is a technical one, but it will blend in with the surrounding property and will be adding something to the community. And not to interfere, but regarding backing out onto the street, Mr. Sanders stated he would be willing to bet you wouldn't have to and inquired as to what is being . served here, whether the people of the Community don't have something to say. r' Mrs. Florence Bennett inquired whether these rules apply to all of North Renton stating that she lives on First Avenue North right across from the clinic and has 28 feet for parking and every car has to back out. The cars are parked all along by the clinic, the traffic is really terrific and they all have to back out from her residence. Mr. Joe Ricardi advised he was the man who submitted the plan to Mr. Jensen and when he asked if there were considerationsto be taken further and was told to consult an architect. Councilman Trimm inquired the date that the matter would be coming before the Planning Commission and Mr. Jensen replied that it would be heard again on March 25th. Councilman Trimm stated that the Council cannot act until the matter is again presented to Council subsequent to the hearing and Mr. Jensen advised that if the Commission denies the request an appeal may be made to the Council, the Ordinance providing for an appeal of decision. Discussion disclosed Planning Commission shall render recommendation on a matter within 30 days if change of use or reclassification of property is involved so the matter might be consumated without undue delay. Mr. Ballatore advised he had been working since April and didn't feel he should have to wait any longer. Mr. Jensen advised the matter had been presented to the Commission the latter part of January or ' first part of February and is not as old as April as far as the Commission is concerned. Mr. Ballatore stated he had submitted the application the 6th of February, however he had tried to get rid of a house on the property last April and it was the wrong zoning for the house in regard to fire regulations so he had moved the houses himself and now he is getting kicked around some more. Mr. Jensen advised that when people come in with proposals for multiple dwellings he very customarily suggests that if they have not employed an architect they do so, wanting the best for the City it is felt that often an architectcan be of valuable assistance to the people in such matters and time is always given to people when they come in with specific problems. Mr. Ricardi said that Mr. Jensen was too busy when he was in with his problem. Upon inquiry Mr. Ricardi advised that his business is known as C. & R. Construction. Mr. Jensen advised he may be too busy to design buildings which is not a part of his job, and Mr. Ballatore statedthe matter has been knocked around and he thought they had gotten everything and the Planning Commission hasn't done what they should have done and Mr. Jensen hasn't done what he should have done. Councilman Trimm inquired whether action will be taken by the 'Planning Commission at the meeting of March 25th. Mr. Jensen said the Commission will have it before them at that time but he could not tell what action would be taken. Councilman Trimm asked if it would be returned by April 6th and Mr. Jensen replied that it may not be appealed but the people would know by March 25th.,, Q Minutes of the Renton City Council Meeting 3-2-1964 COMMUNICATIONS: (cont.) Ballatore - Special Permit request Councilman Garrett. asked,since Mr. Jensen had saiA the Planning Commission was reasonable in requesting this amount of time, did Mr. Jensen feel that this is a reasonable amount of time to determine either one way or another, yes or no, which is what the fellow is really after. It was questionable whether the Council could take care of it. as long as the matter is in the Planning Commission, until they reject it, in' which case it could be appealed and presented to the Council for action,: but if it is approved it will not come- before 'Council again. Mrs. Margaret Evans stated she travels Third Avenue a great deal of the time and felt that on Third and on Park cars must all back out, even 'Ot Mk? Derters home. Mrs. Ballatore stated that she felt if they have s legitimate complaint they should not have to wait that longs If they meet all the requirements why the hold UP. Councilman Hulse stated the Planning Commissiol shoUd have a go at it at the next meeting if they had reason to 6ld itup; and if it is not granted it could come before the Council. Councilman Reid inquired whether the B61iatores were willing to wait, and Mr. Ballatore replied that he was not willing to wait. Mr. Ricardi asked if it were legal or not legal the way it is set up. That this is the question and tie only question involved. Councilman Reid advised the Planning Commission was considering the matter following procedures on the time but he did not go along with them. Further discussion ensued'.xelative to the sebpe of the Planning Commissinns powers as set forth in the Ordinance. Councilman Trimm addressed Mr. Ballatore and advised that under the legal procedure altha# the Council may like to do something,they could not do so now and would have to take the recommendation of the Planning Commission on the 25th. City Attorney Shellan advised these folks had applied for a Special Permit because R-2 zoning does not allow them to put up the building as they have it in mind, that the Planning Commission has a reasonable amount of time to grant the permit but the Planning Commission cannot be arbitrary. . 11he only-point he wished to make was the legal one that if 'the Ordinance did call for a 10 ft. setback, the Planning Commission cannot require 20 or 30 feet. If land is wanted for street purposes the City must negotiate or acquire by purchasing. Upon further inquiry, Mr. Shell.an advised that it would be well for the Council to remind the Planning Commission that if they want to acquire land for public use; that require moving back greater distances than the ordinance provides for they will have to pay for it and whatever the recommendation, it should not include any more than the present Ordinance entitles them to insist on. Councilman Garrett requested members of the Planning Commission who were present to carry back Mr. Shellan's legal opinion. Mr. Guy Evans stated he had no interest one way or another but with the present figures being 40% of the work forces employed in building and rental construction out of work he thought the should let them begin working. Planning Commission member Cordell advised that Mr. Ballatore had approached him after the Commission meeting and that he expressed his opinion that the matter had been held up in the wrong way and he felt they should have been allowed to go ahead but one man could not follow through on the whole-works alone and get it done. Mayor Aliment suggested a Special Meeting of the Planning Commission at which the Council would sit in and designated next Monday, March 9, 1964 at 7:00 p.m. in the Council Chambers therefor. Moved by Garrett, seconded by Custer, that the matter be referred to that meeting. The motion carried. A letter read from the State Highway Commission acknowledged the Council's letter requesting posting of all construction areas within the City and advised that the Com- mission had adopted the Manual for Traffic Controls to which the City refers at its December meeting of 1963 and that contractors currently working in Renton are required to comply with the provisions of the Standard Specifications and any special regdirement included in special provisions of specific contracts. Thanks were extended to the Council for its interest in public safety and the address was submitted where additional copies of the Manual may be obtained at 25� per copy. -5- Minutes of the Renton City Council Meeting 3-2-1964 CUA1Mu1��EsTIO:JS: {cont. ) A ,ulletin from the Association of Washington Cities called attention to Petit-'on for initiative 222 to take liquor profits from Cities, the Initiative proposing that all revenues be allocated for public school building construction.

Mr, Shane stated he did not get it straight owning the reading a it was r�,a3 17f72 of f.-st and there was a lot to it. Mr. Shel_�n explained further Sections of the `.ordinance which provide for credit to be given fcr any payment made in case an L.I.D, is created later on. The property owner is going to pay equn.i share of the improvc,rent whether by L.I.D. or otherwise if connecting to the system. Mr,, Shane further inquired as to whether,if an L.I.D. is initiated by the City and the property owners voted it down, the City could then in:ftia-ftit anyway through means of Health, and Walfare conditions telling everyone to hook on. City Attorney Sre llun replied that this could be possible though not likely because the City does not commence an L.I.D. if voted down because the purpose is to have the property owners shape in the expense and the prime reason of this particular ordinance is to have the City charge, in addition to the regular hook-up charge and recoup a portion of the initial outlay fwcr:. people who have not paid for initial improvements. ter.

The Ordinance Committee Chairman presented a proposed Resolution of the City of Renton relating to construction, installation and maintenance of a certain inter- ceptor sewer line which extends from the Cascade Sewer District's present sewer system through portions of the City and connects to the sewer system of the Munici- pality of Metropolitan Seattle, providing also for collection by the City of Renton for and on behalf of said District, certain hook-up charges from any and all property owners desiring to hook-up to such interceptor line. An Agreement between the City and the District accompanied the proposed Resolution. MW Councilman Custer, Chairman of the Sanitation Committee, reperted that these documents have been prepared pursuant -to many months of meetings and negotiations and with all parties finally agreeing, the documents are written up accordingly. City Attorney Shellan advised of requesting revisions to the original�Cee: el-,t which had now been incorporated and the document received this date was as amended. During discussion regarding the agreement it was pointed out that the City does not commit itself to share in any expense even though perhaps $60,000 worth of pipe is to be located within the City Limits. Its responsibility is to collect from abutting owners certain rates before allowing connection to the system) during the 30 year life of this agreement, and right is reserved to charge for bookkeeping expenses involved in collecting and remitting and also in case any taxes are levied as was done in Metro. Further aspects of the matter were discussed after which Councilman Custer requested recommendation of the Ordinance Committee, the Sanitation Committee having approved same. The Committee recommended favorably and it was moved by Custer, seconded by Bruce, that Resolution No. 1234 be adopted as read. Carried. COUNCIL COMMITTEE REPORTS: OLD BUSINESS Street and Alley Committee Chairman Reid submitted his report which was read by the Clerk with Council actions taken as follows: 1. Wallin-Baffero request on behalf of Jane Duff for Loading Zone at 3rd Avenue and Williams Street: The Committee recommended that the Police Department, Street Department and Engineering Department work with the Contractor to provide adequate loading and unloading space duringr the mod construction. Discussion disclosed that a permanent loading zone was desired and that the bolding would not be constructed otherwise as the type of operation required the permanent zone. The Street and Alley Committee acted with:an impression that the loading zone request was for that time only while the building was being constructed for materials and supplies, and after confirmation by Ips. Glen Wallin of the need for a permanent zone, it was moved by Delaurenti, seconded by Poli, to grant truck loading zone on 3rd Avenue as requested. Carried. 2. Stop signs on 2nd Avenue North and Pelly have been authorized by the Engineering Department as requested. 3. Children at Play sign requested on Langston is being investigated by the Engineering and Police Department. 4. C� H.

The Agreement had not been executed pending the granting of an easement across the property. Also Mr. Lynch brought up the problem of storm sewers on the West side of the property which the Committee feels should be made a part of the conditions for granting of rights to the water system. Moved by Custer that before the Agreement is executed the conditions be amended to include construction of adequate storm sewer or containment for storm waters on the West side of the property. The motion was seconded by Poli and carried. -7- 19 Minutes of the Renton City Council Meeting 3-2-1964 COUNCIL COMMITTEE REPORTS: (cont.) OLD BUSINESS: Councilman Hulse stated that there had been discussion over power rates and made the motion that the Council recommend to the County Commissioners that a proposition be put on the ballot so that the people in the area comprising the Renton School District could vote whether they would like a P.U.D. and the motion was seconded by Custer. Inquiry was made of Mr. Hulse whether he meant to include all of the school district and he replied affirmatively. Councilman Delaurenti stated he had attended the meeting regarding the' P.U.D. 's imm coming into a City and he did not see where the 'Council has authority outside the City. Mayor Aliment inquired if the recommendation was to be made to the County Com- missioners and Mr. Hulse advised it was his understanding that the proposal could get on the ballot by action of the County Commissioners; and thus Council so re-com- mend-The Commissioners did not have to take the advice, however he felt ample evidence had been submitted from the citizens of the City to indicate that they are interested in doing something and so it should be put to a vote. If they don't want it they can turn it down , . It will have to be faced eventually and to date has not been treated fairly but brushed aside like a hot potato and he did not think it should have been and by the recommendation he feels the matter would be given the chance it should have, Mayor Aliment appointed Mr. Hulse as Chairman of a Committee to see the Commissioners and report back. Mr. Hulse inquired whether the Commissioners have been approached heretofore and Mayor Aliment replied that they had not. Councilman Custer was appointed on the Committee also at-this time. Councilman Delaurenti stated that as President of the Council he had called several meetings including one with Puget Power and Light Company, one with Seattle Light and twc private meetings and also had a representative of the P.U.D. in to explain the full s-'-cry so he did not understand the "hot potato" statement as if such were so he would have held it until after the election. Mr. Hulse replied that the way to begin on the matter was w11—h the Com- missioners and he had understood the matter hay' been dronpee. Mr. Charles Shane addressed the Council statIrg the only taing he wanted to say was that he agreed with Mr. Delaurenti that he has been trying to cdo something; that there had been 1200 names of people signing this and four or five Meths have gone by with no action and if there had been real concentrated effort and that group of rww people considered some effort wmald be made as far as these people s:- concerned instead of being ignored and he believed tha matter would be much further along the road. No matter whether a.P.U.D. or what if you want something lou have to get a motion on the floor. It was recommended that the Petition be sent to the Commissioners by the Committee to get it going. Councilman Delaurenti advised that the Petition had been received the second week of December and it was not four or five months ago. Councilman Custer advised that the intent of his second to the motion.-.,?as that this was one possible route of action and he would now like to lay the vote until an answer is received from the County Commissioners. Moved by Custer, seconded by Poli, to table the motion pending report from the County Commissioners. Carried.

Planning Director Jensen advised of having letters in the file from owners of the adjacent properties indicating their willingness to allow parking but the Commission had felt it should be in the form of an agreement. Mr. Wm. Lee, was .present representing the Eagles and expressed the opinion on behalf of the Lodge that inasmuch as they are just using the peoples property and not vice- . versa it was not felt that there should be anything binding upon the properties,. that the letters in writing giving permanent use should be sufficient. Planning Commission member Felker advised the Commission did not feel such document was a r binding committment and that the Commission desired something more of a permanent nature. Motion was offered by Gianini to refer the matter to the Council As A whole and discussion continued upon lack of second, it being determined that the matter was how far the Agreement now in writing was binding in permanence. Mr. Lee inquired as to the number of years the Commission meant by permanent and Councilman Delaurenti inquired of City Attorney Shellan whether they should b _nd other property owners to provide parking for the Eagles. City Attorney Shellan advised the Eagles has requested a Special Permit because they cannot provide enough parking of their own without joint facilities so they have to use their neighbors facilities.

It provides, briefly, that the Board of County Commissioners may, or on petition of ten percent of the qualified electors of the county shall, by resolution, submit to the voters of the county the proposition of creating a public utility district which should be co-extensive with the limits of the county. - - - However, where a P.U.D. is proposed for an area less than the entire county, then such action must be initiated by petition of the people within the subject area and when such petition is submitted the Commissioners shall fix a date for a hearing during which hearing the commissioners have the right to reduce the boundaries. Thereafter the matter is submitted to the Election Board and then to the voters at the next General Election. City Attorney Shellan called attention to the fact that the City Council has very little,if anythinU, to do with these procedures and any such petitions, in order to be legally sufficient, have to be in a certain Form and of course, must be submitted to the County Commissioners and not to the City Council. This was a brief summary of the statute and many procedural requirements are necessary in addition thereto. Councilman Custer advised he was submitted this as the report of the Committee which had been appointed to investigate the matter and that he at this time moved to take the matter from the table resubmitting the motion that the County Commissioners be petitioned for a P.U.D. encompassing the entire school district.

If it is desired that service to the cafe be discontinued it is suggested that a separate meter be installed to serve that unit. They would then be able to reques the meter to be turned off at a fee of $3.00, for the duration of the vacancy and no charge would accrue during that period of time.

Mr. and Mrs. Ballatore declared compliance with the City Ordinance in every respect and did not feel there was justification in further delay of their Permit. Suggested motion for hearing date was made and discussion ensued wherein Planning Director Jensen advised that at the close of prior meetings he had felt that it had been arranged with the Contractor and the owners of the property to adjust the site plan to allow a solution to the problem. He would not recommend granting of the Permit under the present parking arrangement deeming it a hazard to the future tenants, and people using 3rd Avenue North, as the tenants would be backing out into the Easterly bound traffic movement which would be contrary to public interest and welfare. Such special permit constitutes a rezone and permissible construction under R-3 and R-4 was compared to the requested six-plex . Special Permit considerations were out- lined regarding right of the Planning Commission to call for changes beneficial to the property owners, the tenants and public affected by the use. Upon inquiry it was pointed out that the Planning Commission members present at the prior meeting had voted unanimously to deny the Permit under the present proposals. Councilman Bruce, stated it was his understanding that the present arrangement was in accordance with the present Ordinance and moved that the Permit be granted. The motion was seconded by Custer. Contractor Ricardi stated his interpretation that the setback of 10 ft. had been the only concern and as far as parking is concerned he felt it could be pro- vided for adequately, there being 43 x 16 ft available on one side and 33 on the other. Mr. Jensen called attention to mistakes made in the community over the past years and expressed his opinion that this would be one also if the Council allows it as he feels there is a better solution. Mr. Schellert pointed out that the site is near a school and that backing out would be dangerous. Assurance was given that it would not be necess-xy to back out and that a turn around could be provided. As there was no further verbal comment from the audience, the Hearing was declared closed and Council action requested. Councilman Bruce stated his opinion again that if the requirements of the Code are met the Permit should not be held pending future development of the area and restated his motion that the Permit be granted. The motion was seconded by Reid and carried. A letter from Jack Wilson, City Engineer, was read submitting Quit Claim Deed dedicating an eighteen foot strip of land to King County for street purposes, as recom- mended by the Street and Alley Committee and approved by Council on 2-3-64.

Scarvie, Director of Administrative Services, requested approval for construction of a steel tower line for transmission purposes to extend from the existing transmission right of way in the vicinity of Grady Way Westerly to a point of termination near the Metro sewage treatment plant. Moved by Delaurenti, seconded by Dahlqui.st, to refer the request to the LLhi and Power Committee for investigation and report back. Carried. A letter from Mr. Harold Dunham, of Harold's Shell Service, 330 Sunset Blvd. E., Renton, Washington requested the City to consider the dangerous traffic situation at the intersection of 3rd Avenue No. and Sunset Blvd. E. where people will not take the chance to enter the business places in the vicinity of the intersection because of the great hazard involved. It was suggested that the two traffic lanes on 3rd Avenue North be marked-thru traffic only for the right hand lane and - left turn only for the left hand lane which would allow turn movements without someone pulling to the outside of them. `•+ Also, the solid island causes a problem of egress and ingress to businesses and it was suggested that the island be replaced with button bumpers. Moved by Custer, seconded by Delaurenti, to refer the communication to the Streit and Alley Committee and the City Engineer to investigate and report back. Carried.

Carried. Hearing: Appeal of Planning Commission regarding setback requirements on Bert-iia Isaacson property. The Hearing on the above-captioned appeal was opened and Mr. Ernie Coleman, represe_:c__:< Mrs. Isaacson requested that Mr. Jensen present the Planning Comm_ssion proceedings to date. Mr. Jepsen advised that the Commission had recommended the B-1 zoning hojae',!:;7' the property owner had been advised of the actions of other property owners in `ham regarding setbacks and landscaping which were deemed to be to the best interest of t: n City insofar as beautification in proximity of the freeway is concerned. A sixty foc': setback was recommended by the Commission for the proposed use which was regarded to be a reasonable one in this area although the comprehensive plans indicate it to be for the most part residential area. Mr. Coleman replied that setback agreements as heretofore designated are, on properties located on the other side of the freeway, teat the B-1 zoning was favorable to the Commission and that in bringing new industry to the City his Company did not feel restrictions should be imposed which would be a hindrance to the disposition of the land which any covenant of record on a title would be. Discussion ensued wherein problems of beautificat16n were d__scussed with respect. to freeway and power transmission towers and intent of improving to the best interest of the City by working around existing and proposed structures. Pyr, Cbler'an advised they were willing to work with thQ people of the community and would agree to certain setbacks but that the City Ordinance should be governing as far as condition for a rezone is concerned, ,37 Minutes of the Renton City Council Meeting (cont. ) 3-24-64 Hearing: Appeal of Planning Commission Decision regarding Bertha Isaacson Property Planning Director Jensen advised that the area recommended for setback could be used for parking but the Commission felt that structures should not be in close proximity to the freeway.

Moved by Custer, seconded by Poli, that the Hearing be closed. Carried. Mayor Aliment invited Council action at this time. Moved by Custer, seconded by Bruce, to grant the B-1 zoning. City Attorney Shellan �.. advised of the fact that existing Ordinances must be observed in regard to setbacks and until such time as revision has been effected the zonings could have no conditions other than provided therein. Mr. Coleman advised of his company's desire to work harmoniously in the community and to meet legal requirements but that in business zoned property there was more potential for change of ownership and where they might agree to covenants future tenants may not. Mr. Jensen stated the matter of compliance to the Commission recommendations was purely a voluntary consent by property owners heretofore and must be in this case likewise. Mr. Coleman again stated willingness of his client to observe a.80 ftr setback and planter area and the pending motion subsequently carried.

COU14CIL COMMITTEE REPORTS: OLD BUSI14ESS President of the Council Poli requested a meeting of the Council As A Wbole on Thursday, April 16th at 7:30 p.m. with the Library Board and Green River Valley Flood Control representatives in the Council Chambers at City Hall. Attention was called by President Poli to the Chamber of Commerce Dinner at Kingens on Monday, April 20th at 5:30 p.m. Upon inquiry it was evident most everyone indicated his intention to attend. Reservations are to be made by the individuals. Councilman Schellert, Chairman of the Ways and Means Committee, submitted Committee recommendation that billing in the amount of $5,972.80, payable to the Washington State Highway Commission for services rendered in connection with storm sewer installations and reps-,, cemc7t a.s L , r d during 3rd Avenue exteLaion and PSH#l, PSH#2 and PSH#5 widenin'; and construction, ije paid from a/c 7120/606. Moved by Garrett, seconded by Hulse, to concur in the recommendation of the Ways and Means Committee. Carried. Councilwoman Dahlquist reported attendance at the Open House and Dedication of the neW Auburn Pub-__c Library building, and advised that the total cost including equipment and landscaping was $225,000.00 which carried successfully by favorable vote of the people at the first Bond 11s:m:;ue presentation. The building was very impressive and it was sugested that perhaps :-penton might be encouraged by the event and give further thought to local needs. Councilman Pedersen thanked the Mayor and Council for sending him as representative of the Council to the Annual Planning Convention in Boston and reported verbally that it was an extremely interesting experience, and that he would relate those things which he felt would be of particular interest to the City of Renton. It was pointed out that Boston planning goes back about 330 years being one of our eldest Cities and it is one of the very first public use land areas in the U.S., having been purchased for the purposes of training the military and the grazing of cattle. A 40 acre tract right in the downtown area still observes the special right of cattle grazing which is exercised monthly in -the spring although it is located beneath a very large parking garage. (Imagine the Park Department allowing monthly cattle grazing in Liberty Park). A mutual problem is the railroad situation and in Boston tracks run everywhere. An insurance company deciding to establish home offices in Boston acquired a parcel of ground which was traversed with railroad tracks thus they built a 52 story office building right over the tracks which is one way of coping with the problem. Bcston's planning program was very slow in progressing but with the reel za;.ion that its population was falling away they instituted their presen+- plan which incluves renovating projects and a 200 acre urban renewal program. The 12 year plan includes a Government Square with a new City Hall with complete removal of "Sculleys Square" . Much of the estimated $287,000,000 total cost is from private funds and the approximate cost to the City of Boston will be $155,000,000. At the conclusion of the 12 year period in 1975 the City hopes to hold a World's Fair. During the interim, property owners and landlords are requested to cooperate in renewal programs and special agreements have been made with loaning instituions and banks so that people can get money at special rates of interest to do their own renovating. Councilman Pedersen compared like situations now existing in Renton on a smaller scale and like Boston City Government needs to get vigorously behind this type of program working closely with home owners, business people and the community and with cooperation of the State and Federal Government, things can happen. Courciman Pedersen recommended that each Council member be given an opportunity to attend at _least one such meeting during his term on the Council. -5- 357 Minutes of the Renton City Council Meetings 4-13-6^. COUNCIL COMMITTEE REPORTS: (cont. ) NEW BUSINESS: Councilman Hulse commented that from Mr. Pedersen's remarks it was quite obvious that it was worthwhile to send a representative to these meetings and he was very glad the opportunity to attend had been given to him. Councilwoman Dahlquist, Chairman of the Legislation Committee,called attention to the need for opposing Initiative 222 which calls for use of liquor profits for the State's public schools' construction fund which previously had been apportioned to Cities and Towns, and it was moved by Dahlquist, seconded by Gianini, to refer the matter to the Ordinance Committee for oPosing Resolution. Councilman Garrett inquired as to the disposition of the document � d furthet acticn. Discussion disclosed that the Initiative has apparently not received backing of the School Officials so there would be no conflict between the Cities and Schools. City Attorney Shellan upon inquiry advised that the Association of Washington Cities will go on record as opposing the initiative and he is quit sure all Cities will go officially on record likewise and that Mrs. Dahlquist's intent would be to call people's attention to the matter- and send copies of the Resolution to the Association of Washington Cities. The pending motion carried. Attention was called to drainage ditch on 108th Ave. S.E. which is not functioning properly due to slide of debris and it was moved by Garrett, seconded by Hulse, that the natter be referred to the Street Commissioner to investigate. Mayor Custer advised such reports could be handled adminstratively and in the future would not need to be presented to Council. The present motion was accepted and carried. Moved by Delaurenti, seconded by Poli, that Vouchers No. =,472 through 4571 be approved having been previously approved by the Auditing and Accounting Committee. Carried.

Ch. 7 of Title VIII (Health and Sanitation) of Ordinance No. 1628, "Code of General Ordinance of the City of Renton" and as the rate may be amended from time to time. Attention was directed to Section 8-715, the present rate schedule' and reference made to the Agreement of 11-16- 1962 between Metro and The Boeing Company which was approved by the City. Any such hook-up shall be under the direction and supervision of the City's Superintendent of Utilities. Communication was read directed by the City Attorney to Mr. Wayne C. Booth, Attorney at Law, acknowledging receipt of letter and enclosures, returning original Order to which Voluntary Non-Suit is being taken on Cost Claim against the City on the Pacific Coast Railroad Lawsuit, Check to be cleared for benefit of the City on April 29th according to Judgment Clerk.

Areas of the City having unsightly features, including Cedar River and the South end of Lake Washington were pointed out to be areas which should be taken into consideration under the 701 program with such conditions eliminated there- under. Inquiry was made relative to certain zonings and development prospective of the property West of the East Valley Hwy. and North of the new freeway, and interpre- tation was requested regarding coverage of the land use program with respect to in- dication that changes may be made immediately after adoption when it has been explained by the City Attorney that it should extend over a 10 year period at least. Mr. Coleman expressed his opinion that rezoning applications will drop to a minimum if this plan is adopted. He further stated his many years of contact with City Hall relative to planning and zoning have been enjoyable and that he will continue .his efforts toward issues in which he believes have justification for Council consideration. .;,,:_Moved by D'e-3;aurenti-� seconded by Perry, to refer the communication to the Committee of-the Whole Carried -- A letter from $ob .Iyraham announced his appointment as Assistant State Auditor, replacing Clem ,Yelle who retired and the appointment of Dick Husk as Deputy State Auditor and Chief Examiner of the Division of Municipal Corporations, as of April 1st. His expanded sphere of operations were outlined and facilities of the office of State Auditor were extended in the interest of the citizen taxpayer dictates and improved state and local government. A letter from J, David Jensen, Planning Director, submitted Planning Commission . decision reaffirming the prior action of 2-26-64 on the Malone's Inc. Variance request that if he provides additicnalparkina and unloading space by eliminating a portion of the proposed construction the Commission would give approval however, otherwise, the construction would need to be limited to comply with that allowed under the Ordinance without the necessity for --granting a variance. Waiver of the 10 day appeal period was not recommended: in view ;of alternatives presented. Discussion ensued with Mr. Malone addressing the Council inasmuch as his attorney was out of town,advising that upon advice of the former administration he waited until after the election to pursue the matter notrealizing that by so doing he would not meet the 10 day appeal period requirement. 'fle stated his variance request was made inasmuch as his property was only' 30 ft. and the requirement was for a 44 ft. loadin-' zone which was impossible for him to meet. He stated the same Ordinance prevails at present ;as did when he was allowed and advised to construct his present building as it is situated and that other buildings in the Highlands were of comparative status; thcit".,2 loading zones °as proposed by the Commission with still lesser requirements than the Ordinance provide's and a' variance therefore was not compatible with the type of services rendered''under',the proposed construction. He deemed parking to be one Plannin, Commission factor in the decision rendered which should not be a consideration inasmuch as it meets-the requirements under.-.the present Ordinance as the City Attorney has nonfirmed.. . . Upon inquiry Planning Director Jensen advised that inasmuch as Mr. Malone does not have adequate square ft. aggregate space to comply with the 44 x 60 loading zone the Commission in attempting to uphold provisions of the Ordinance recommended the lesser construction and additional loading area; that in the interest of maintaining standards the request was a reasonable one. Mr. Malone and his Architect, •Mr. Jack Bryant advised of conversation with Planning Director Jensen that enforcement.-of a part -of the Ordinance was not always in keeping with feasible compliance in which event reasonable consideration was given. Mr. Jensen cited smaller constructions such �as 10 or 11 ft. basis to have been his inference during such discussion. -2- Minutes of the Renton City Council Meeting 4-27-61 COMMUNICATIONS: (cont.) The Chairman of the Planning Commission, James Denier, requested that before the Council take any action they take a look at the subject property and check the proposals and the Ordinance and they will find the reasons why the Com- mission has made its recommendations as it had. In view of the circumstances of this particular situation, Delaurenti moved to grant a hearing of Mr. Ma�one 's appeal on Monday and the Council look at the property in the meantime . The motion was seconded by Perry. Discussion ensued on the question and Mr. Malone requested the Council to keep in mind that parking was not the problem to be considered as it has been approved and is in compliance with requirements of the Ordinance. Inquiry was made by Trimm regarding establishment of policy by waiving of the 10 day appeal period. Citv Attorney., Shellan advised that Council has the right to waive the appeal period; or they could require a new application and filing fee and go through same motions and Planning Commission denial and bring right back to present appeal status, each case having to be considered on its own merits, he did not feel this would result in new policies and would not establish precedent as the facts are unique for each case. Upon inquiry by Gianini regarding renters for the proposed building Mr. Malone advised he had released a tentative lessee,due to the delay in construction, from lease obligation.

Carried. -1- 375 Minutes of the Renton City Council Meeting (cont. ) 5-1-64 PRELIMINARY MEETING with property owners pursuant to letter of intent to annex to Renton - Kennydale area Inquiry was made as to whether anyone present in the audience would speak for the property owners.Mr. B. I. Nicoli, 8904 - 100th S.E. advised that Mr. Ambrose had been the initial person to institute the annexation however he would remark that other than to invite pro and con discussion he had no comment except that it was felt in concern for long range planning, the annexation request was a step in the right direction. Councilman Schellert directed the question as to whether the property owners would be willing to assume their appropriate share of the City's bonded indebtedness. Mr. Nicoli advised he could not speak for his neighbors however from his under- standing County vs. City expenditures balance so that in considering whether to stay in the county or join the City, he would be willing to assume the pre-existing bonded debt. The City was asked to present benefits to be derived by owners if they annex. It was pointed out that the indebtedness is very small at present and would not be of consequence after which it was moved by Schellert, seconded by Poli, that the City and the property owners be authorized to circulate the proper Petition,which must bear at least 75% of assessed valuation in signatures,and which•also shall specify acceptance of pro rata shares of the existing bonded indebtedness. Discussion on the question followed regarding assumption of existing bonded in- debtedness upon inquiry by Mr. Ernie Coleman, 10208 S.E. 80th Street, and City Clerk Nelson was requested to enlarge on the point. Mrs. Nelson explained that the County Assessor urges that Cities require the newly annexed areas to assume the indebtedness inasmuch as a new limit No. 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 etc. must be established for worm? parcels. . . annexed without assuming the debt ,and they would eventually be figuring a hundred or more different tax limit rates for the Cities. Also, in fairness to the large industries bearing the major portion of the taxes and the core area likewise assuming its share it is felt the new areas should thus also assume -their, shaxes,having the same rights as far as benefits are concerned. Mayor Custer advised that although public hearings would follow in the course of normal events, if the Council so directs, a meeting would be arranged with the property owners to acquaint them with the benefits to be derived by the annexation. The pending motion carried. REPORT OF REVIEW BOARD - Pillo-Dalpay et al annexations �- City Clerk Nelsor reported receiving confirmation of dispensation of review board proceedings by majority approval of the Review_..Board, including the Sup Pt. of Schools, the County Commissioner and Director of Commerce and Economic Development and the Mayor of Renton, the area being less than ten acres and less than $200,000.00 in assessed valuation, pursuant to Sec. 3, Ch. 282, Laws of 1961. Moved by Poli, seconded by Dahlquist, that the date of May 18, 1964 be set for Public Hearing on the proposed annexation. (Property located in vicinity of 132nd Ave. S.E. and Sunset Blvd. E. ) Carried. CONTINUED HEARING: Comprehensive Plan for the City of Renton including Land Use Map, Street and Arterial Map, and the Text which illustrates briefly the history of the City, the studies heretofore undertaken and goals set forth for achievement under said plan. This being the date set, the Hearing was declared open and public comment was invited, The Clerk reported no : fuither communications regarding the matter. Mr. Ernie Coleman addressed the Council calling attention to his letter of 4-27 and inquiry therein regarding prospective development of the property West of the East Valley Highway and North of the Freeway which he now stated should be considered for some type of zoning other than residential. Inquiry was made also on the portion deleted previously regarding zoning and attention called to the need for action in regard to areas which need cleaning up and elimination of unsightly features, all in the interest of the Community, new people and industry wise. Consideration was requested on said proposals prior to final action. Mr. Kay Johnson, 2101 - 7th Avenue North, recalled the items from the Chamber of Commerce letter of recommendation dated 4-20-64 for changes in land uses between State Highway SSH-11 and Interstate Route 405 and from the So. Renton Interchange Westerly, stating they maintain their position. It was pointed out that additional requests for changes in wording had been incorporated into the text as recommended. Mr. Wyman Dobson objected to the present land use designation on the Cugini-Dobson property just East of the Wigwam from L-1 to R-1 calling attention to existing Agreement wherein land owners and the City agree that the zoning shall remain and not be changed until the Highway is completed. It was pointed out that the land use designation will not change zonings , 9- Minutes of the Renton City Ccuncil Meeting 5-4-64 HEARING: (cont. ) Comprehensive Plan For the benefit of the new Council Members the %it- At-Liwas requested to review the matter and it was recalled that the Agreemen-c had been executed between the City and the owners and concurred in by people living in the Windsor Hills area who had interest in this particular property. An amendment made about six months ago allowed a certain area to be deleted for purpose of allowing a residence to be built. The purpose of the original agreement was to hold the whole matter in abeyance until the location of the highway had been established and construction campleted (one year being anticipated time and it has been approximately six years now) `file matter may be re- submitted by the property owners to Council for 7ny final zoning or rezoning. The Comprehensive Plan is not for zoning o::_^poses but sim_ply a '= an Which is to show officially the eventual anticipated development of til ; csty �r i eutai;._4.;hmei1 of land uses within the City. Inquiry was made by May or Custer as -to r7he.`:her lir. Dobson was requesting that the land use map be changed t08f icCi ,.r� Sl f 1 L'oe tia:l S1D?arl at present. It was pointed out that the P_ann._.lg 'ommi�cior: hGd ecomme..ded multiple use and the Council had, upon hearing objections of people in the area, amended it to single family residence. Upon inquiry as to ?ega ity of chang^rig design.-itions at -`h s time City Attorney Shellan advised it could be changed howeve-- the Coun..cAi w__shed until such time as it is adopted. The Hearing nLV:is o a_'_lc,•, people to express their opinions bearing in mind the purpose of the plan being to try to oStai.n a; realistic view in showing development of the Citi, with. n the next 5-1C-'5--or 20 years. _f, however the map is presently adopted which is part of the Ccmprehens;ye P'an and someone wants it changed next week it could not be done ;aithout hold_ng searing„ and re--fi_ing amendments with the King County Auditor's Office of pi.ile 'ompreIensiye Pian. Mr. Dobson advised that on behalf of the property owners he was requesting desi_gnatiop of R-4 use as this was their intent which would otherwise be addit on�:l hurdle to be overcome when they want it changed. 1. . Moved by Dahlquist, seconded by. Poli, that the Cugini--Dobson property in question be changed to R-4 land usage from the present ^_.i designation.. Mrs. Evans, 403 Grar.3ey Way, advised that 14 of the tdindscz- Hills residents in 1957 had presented a signed statement and they would agree to a R-2 use, 6na6 ,1.1 were in favor of the development of that area but in a manner tint does not destroy their property values or views, citing Seattle Court ruling that first property owners should -' be considered and in no way injured by subsequent ceve�cpment. In 1960 they again nick and the property owners were advised they could proceed with building upon release from the agreement which Mrs, Evans savored if R-2 use or in accordance w4 th topography of the land so as not to obscure views. She belie,.7ee the land across the road zoned .R-4 has little room left after right-of-way use,and advised -4yuse would be approved here-oh.-the South part cr lower edge, but mmediate y back of them :?-4 would not beacceptable. Discussion ensued regarding multiple zoning recommended by the Comm _ssion and Mrs. Evans pointed out there is only one outlet to ematery Rcad .and. no playground and the children would have to go over their yards *_o get to `cboo'.s t;.a;` peal_ es'ate men and other persons had looked at the land and agreed with them.

Lewis addressed the assembly in behalf of Mr. Malone and appealed the Planninff Commission denial of Variance to waive loading zone requirements of the Code. Mr. Malone's proposed addition to his present commercial building is one-hale the size specified in the Code to require a 44 x 60 ft. loading zone and it was deemed therefore that the loading zone,as designated on exhibits which had been distributed, would be adequate, especially with respect to the type of services operating therein. Discussion disclosed that tenants of Mr. Maloneb had registered opposition at the Planning Commission meeting to the Variance and Mr. Malone advised that the problem mom discussed at that time was one of parking only which has no bearing on the loading zone variance. Discussion regarding use of the loading zone for parking followed along with designation of the zone by striping which Mr. Malone said had not been his intent to do and the fact that trucks load only once or twice a month was reason not to prohibit general use for parkins. He stated further that the loading was not a factor previously and his building was approved 3 years ago with expansion provisions as constructed under the same Ordinance presently in effect. It was pointed out that the Planning Commission was unanimous in its decision on the matter and it was moved by Trimm, seconded by Poli, to uphold the decision of the Planning Commission. Carried. Appeal was denied. COMMUNICATIONS: A letter read rrom Intercity Insurance Agency, Louie Gebenini, and a letter from Wm. F. Davis, Chairman, Insurance Commission, recommended renewal of the present policy with the Public Employees Mutual Insurance Company covering liability "or the City. Excessive Losses amounting to $7,999.43 or 75% loss cause removal of experience credit and addition of annexed areas including 7.0 acres, 2 .3 miles of streets, 3.9 miles of sidewalk, 1.5 miles of sanitary sewers, 1.0 miles of storm sewers,additional vehicles and increase in payroll along with adjustment of the National Bureau Commercial Ratin,; Classifications have caused an increase in the premium for renewal of the policy from May 15, 196'1 to May 15, 1965 to 115, 558.46. Immediate safety program was recommended to help curb losses to again effect the 10% experience credit discount. Councilman Pedersen reported that the Property Committee has been working with the Commission on this matter and renewal as outlined was recommended. Moved by Morris, seconded by Poli, to concur in the recommendations of the Property Committee and to renew the liability insurance as outlined by the Commission. Councilman Schellert made inquiry as to why insurance is different and not being required to be let for bid when it exceeds the amount allowable without bid. Louie Gebenini advised that it has been the ruling by the Attorney General that due to the type of insurance bids would not be required. Mr. Gebenini advised that in most cases the proposal -type of bid is best and that the Commission had about 7 refusals with -:our in writing assome of the Companies do not want to handle it because of the Airfield or swimming pools, etc. (the loss ratio too great far bidding to recover if outbid -the ne::t year)The biggest change in premium was due to the loss of experience credit which cost the City $1,555.00, the other thing the Bureau Rating Plan which last year shows the City had 24 heavy trucks classified therein and this year winds up with 64. Forty different companies are represented by members of the Commission and none were interested Those interested have had past e::perience in this type of business. Mayor Custer advised several companies have been contacted and bids in that respect have been taken and in this case most of them did not accept the insurance and the ones who will carry it have had past experience, furnishing it for their 8th year. It was pointed out that along with the $8,000.00 losses 9-cases-ak&,,pending,.and one in. reserve, and Mr. Gebenini advised the City to revieN fpty practices at this time.

The Committee recommended that the City create a Traffic Signal Maintenance position, #n.:order that the City could provide for its own maintenance, Due to termination of the former traffic signal contractor on April 7, 1%4 the Engineering Department has negotiated ar, agreement with the State Highway Department to ..perform maintenance on all traffic signals in the City and under terms of the agreement the State Highway Department has agreed to perform emergency maintenance as required nor the period of time not to exceed ninety days. It is felt that within this time the City cduld provide for its own maintenance and with a quarter of a million dollars invested iD its traffic signal system it is imperative that a maintenance program under a full ' time city employee be instituted rather than depend on a private contractor for repair. Under the present system, the City has no preventative maintenance program and conse- quently we have more controller fdilures and lamp burnouts than a system ten times the size of Renton's. The Committee also recommended that the matter be referred to the Council Committee of the Whole and the Ways and Means Committee to work out the necessary details. It was moved by Poli, seconded by Schellert, to concur in the recommendations of the Street and Alley Committee and City Engineer. Carried.

Mrs. Margaret Evans, 403 Grandey Way, in behalf of the petitioners requested that the use in this area be limited to R-3 instead of R-4 as contained in motion of last week and that a buffer be established thereby reducing the space which would not allow R-4, except for the -south 200 ft. on Cemetery road to the Freeway. It was requested that all Council Members view the area. Moved by Delaurenti, seconded by Trimm, to refer the Retiton tb, Committee of 'Che Whole for consideration. Mrs. Phyllis McGerry and Mrs. Jack Bryant addressed the Council advising that Mrs. E van s has been delegated to represent the Windsor Hills residents and report back and that she had their full support and her views were theirs. Discussion ensued regarding intent of the motion of May 4th and it was pointed out and confirmed by Councilwoman Dahlquist, who made the motion, -chat the land use map was changed -to designate multiple dwelling use or high density as usage while:.,R=4 designation is a �,oning and not referenced on the maps. Zonings to be classified as requested by property owners henceforth. Upon inquiry Planning, Director Jensen advised High Density usage allows S units per acre or more provided Council in its final analysis zones it to do that, However, the map as proposed is merely to look into the future to anticipate use and this does not mean the transposition is going to be done immediately. Mrs. Evans advised that the construction to which she is referring is coming in right away and Council was requested to keep in view that R-4 as mentioned last week allows structures to 95 ft. high, and she would like it clear where she and GAndsor Hills stand and they feel high density land use leaves too much of an opening -to owners as R-4 is what they are endeavoring to do regardless of what it does to the surrounding area. `Referral to the Committee is alright but it should be understood that high density or R-4 is opposed for zoning of this area. The pending motion carried. A letter from Mayor Custer informed the Council that he had been invited to be Chairman o:L' a meeting to be held on May 26, 1964 at 8:00 p.m. in the Puget Power audi- torium on Grady Way, to discuss the pros and cons of an annexation in the Kennydale area.

Recommended that Council authorize the Mayor to initiate action through negotiation, inquiry and appraisal toward eventual acquisition of civic center sites I and 4a, the area bounded by Houser Way, Main Street, Bronson Way and Cedar River, -the purpose of such acquisition to be to provide for future location of a civic auditorium and/or a convention hall. 4. Recommended that subsequent to adoption of aforementioned plans the City. Council consider gradual removal of the ballfields, tennis courts and other park facilities to Cedar River Park. 5. Mayor Custer urged the Council to take immediate actions on these recommendations so that steps can be taken to provide the citizens of the City with these badly needed facilities at the earliest possible date.

Moved by Morris, seconded by Perry, to concur with the recommendations of Mayor Custer as outlined.

The estimated cost on the project had ,been $1,600.00, s_ -5- Minutes of the Renton City Council Meeting 5-11-64 COUNCIL COMMITTEE REPORTS: OLD BUSINESS Property Committee Report (cont. ) 2. The Building and Park Departments had requested improvements and repairs to the building and grounds at the North Renton Highlands Recreation Center as follows: Asphalt paving for additional parking space $ 785.00 Parking lot curbing 540.00 Storm sewer for draining grounds 700.00 Lawn sprinkling system 4,500.00 Lawn in unpaved area 600.00 Convert building locks to master system 275.00 New shingle roof 3.600.00 Estimated total cost 11,000.00 Funds available from Housing Authority - 4,800.00 Estimated balance of cost $ 6,200.00 The Committee recommended approval of the improvements and repairs with exception of the lawn sprinkling system. With this deletion the estimated balance of cost would be reduced to approximately $1,700.00 and it was recommended that this cost be funded from Cumulative Fund No. 1894. It was further recommended by the Property Committee that all Public Works Projects costing over $1,000.00 be on bid call basis. Moved by Dahlquist, seconded by Schellert, to refer the report to the Council Committee of the Whole, It was pointed out that roof repair was urgent and that the building was in demand and should be readied without undue delay and that the present parking strip is not deemed adequate and for proper use should be extended as recom- mended. Pending motion failed by dissenting voice vote and it was subsequently moved by Garrett, seconded by Schellert to concur in the property committee recommendations. Discussion ensued regarding the parking improvement and anticipation of that area being used for tennis courts. Upon inquiry regarding cost of tennis courts, Supt. of Parks, Gene Coulon, estimated $7,000.00 for a double court and one-half that amount for a single court with perhaps a bit better price for the double inasmuch as the fencing cost would be reduced by the greater quantity used on the double court. Councilman Pedersen advised that his committee had felt tennis courts might be a project for the future but that money was not available at this time. Discussion followed regarding .�tha sprinkler system it being maintained that it would pay for itself in a few years by reason of eliminating need to move hoses and that it would also extend use of the playground by watering automatically prior to 4:00 a.m. so the ground would be dry for use whereas now a portion is continually being sprinkled during hours when it could otherwise be used. A suggested motion to over-ride committee recommendation and add $4,500.00 for sprinkler system died for lack of second and the pending motion to concur in the recommendations of the committee carried. Moved by Morris, seconded by Hulse, that the matter of the sprinkler system be referred to the Ways and Means Committee to report back. After discussion and inquiry whether it was desirable to take action thusly without Property Committee investigation and recommendation, Councilman Hulse withdrew his second to the motion and it was sub- sequently moved by Garrett, seconded by Poli, to refer the matter to the Property Committee for recommendation. Carried. Councilman Garrett, Chairman of the Street and Ailey Committee, requested additional time for consideration of request of Parole Officer Snow for free parking stalls at Walla Walla Municipal lot. Request granted. NEW BUSINESS: Moved by Hulse, seconded by Delaurenti, that Vouchers No. 4796 through 4925, having been previously approved by the Auditing and Accounting Committee, be authorized for payment by the Council. Carried. The Auditing and Accounting Committee recommended approval of the transfer of $5,630.07 'from Non-Departmental 1920, Unto Central Garage 3600 per request of B. L. Andersen, Director of Utilities, referred earlier in the meeting and that the matter now be referred to the Ordinance Committee. Carried. Councilman Garrett announced a meeting of the Street and Alley Committee on Saturday, May 16, 1964 at 8:00 a.m. and a representative member of the Police and Engineering Departments was requested to be present. Minutes of the Renton City Council Meeting 5-11-64 COUNCIL COMMITTEE REPORTS: Councilman Perry called attention to his motion of last week which had been referred to the Council Committee of the Whole which felt it should be held until motion is made to grant a Franchise to Seattle City Light to serve Renton. Mr. Perry moved that such Franchise be granted under terms and con- ditions of his last week's motion with the public power being subject to the in-lieu-of-taxes and assessments now imposed upon private power utility, and that the Mayor appoint a committee of Councilmen and businessmen to get to- gether with Seattle City Light and report back. - Discussion ensued and it was determined that it would not be feasible to grant a franchise until the legal and remunerative aspects had been resolved. Moved by Schellert, seconded by Delaurenti, to refer the matter to the Council Committee of the Whole. Mr. Perry objected stating the matter had been in Com- mittee to no avail. It was pointed out that no action should be taken until the meeting with the Utilities and Transportation Commission on May 22nd, nor until a meeting has been held with Seattle City Light to discuss the matter. The pending motion to refer to Committee of tle Whole subsequently carried. Councilman Delaurenti reported notice from Fire Chief M.C. Walls that there is a lack of parking in the vicinity of Fire Station No. 1.

A report of the City Engineer, Jack Wilson, was read advising that the Letter of Intent to annex -the subject area, submitted by Mr. Peter V. Gulick and signed by Mr. and Mrs. C. E. Dolman, represented 12.8% of the assessed valuation of the property requestin` annexation. The property is located south of the Evergreen Cemetery near 132nd Ave. S.E. and contains approximately 123 acres with an assessed value of $73,626.00. Mr. Gulick was present, representing the Dolmans and Mayor Custer invited his comment. Mr. Gulick stated issues to be resolved at this meeting, whether the City was favorable to the annexation and whether the property owners were willing to assume the pre-existing bonded indebtedness. A 1962 proposal for annexation was recalled at which time the Council had not required the assumption of the debt. The Petition had been circulated about the area at that time but had failed for lack of adequate signatures ..�. thereby not meeting the 75% requirement in value according to the assessed valuation. It was contended that the Council should not require assumption of the debt inasmuch as -this was additional efort to pursue the same petition and also it would be much easier to secure signatures even -though the debt is now negligible, than to try and explain -the pro rata share of pre-existing bonded indebtedness to each property owner. Mr. Gulick explained that the Dolmans were seeking the annexation in order to further develop their properties which sub-divisions were at a standstill presently due to the limitation allowing but a certain number of septic tanks in a given area by the County. Thus, the area must be annexed to be further developed in pursuance of bringin`; a sewer line in from the Maplewood area up into Heather Downs No. 2, to be financed by the Sub- dividor, opening future annexation possibilities as the time becomes appropriate. -1- 4V Minutes of the RentDn City Council Meeting Preliminary Meeting - Proposed Annexation - Heather Downs No. 2 (cont. ) Inquiries followed from Mr. Mike Noble, 13573 S.E. 140th Place, Cliff Travis, 13569 S.E. 140th Place, Mr. Donald Anderson and Mrs. Carol Anderson, 13914 - 137th S.E. regarding the annexation and proposed sewer line and protest procedures if desired. Mayor Custer requested City Attorney Shellan to outline the legal aspects and due processes of law. Mr. Shellan pointed out that in order to petition for annexation the property must be contiguous to the present City Limits and that Heather Downs No. 1 was not included in the letter of intent now under consideration and would therefore not become annexed with Heather Downs No. 2. Mr. Gulick, upon inquiry advised that 'the( area was deleted due to former unsuccessful attempts at getting required signatures for a valid petition. It was further pointed out that annexation would mean only that a sewer might be available, however an L.I.D. may or may not go through. Khen sewer lines are- installed residences within 300 feet are required to 'hook up within 90 days, but this is an entirely different item from annexation which is the matter before the Council at this time. Mr. Shellan advised that public hearings must be held on the annexa- tion and the public may then protest; also,if not favorable, -the property owner need not sign the petition. Review Board Meetings must be convened and hearings held before the Council but foremost, a Petition with signatures representing an assessed valuation of 75% of, property must be secured. Mr. Gulick upon inquiry outlined the benefits of street improvement, upgrading of property values, and $10,000.00 sewer trunk line without L.I.D. as the developer had offered to bear the cost. Further discussion ensued regarding -the sewer and septic tank conditions in the area after which Councilman Schellert stated his opinion that the matter of requiring assumption of pro rata shares of bonded indebted- ness should be the issue under discussion at this time and that he would not feel inclined to authorize or vote in favor of further procedure unless the pro rata share of the Cities indebtedness was included as a condition. Councilman Hulse affirmed this as policy established over the past months and inquired whether Mr. Gulick felt ammenable to the condition. Mr. Gulick advised the petitioners would cooperate as far as the as- sumption is concerned although it was his contention that inasmuch as the petition was allowed to be circulated without it in '62 it was logical that it again be allowed. Moved by Hulse, seconded by Schellert, that the annexation proposal be accepted and that the petitioner-owners be required to assume their pro rata share of the City's presently outstanding indebtedness with the proper petition,so stating, authorized to b� circulated. Carried. Mrs. Margaret Evans, 403 Grandey Way stated that she believed it would be well to advise the people how small the bonded indebtedness is at present and that it would not add very much to their costs. Upon inquiry City Treasurer Gossett advised the total was approximately $113,000.00 plus the newly voted $400,000.00. The amount of about $3.20 per year was determined to be the cost to each taxpayer involved. COMMUNICATIONS: A letter from Mrs. Paul Moore applied to the Council for operation of the City Hall Cafe beginning July 1, 1964. Moved by Delaurenti, seconded by Perry, to refer the application to the Property Committee to report back next week. Carried. A letter from Mrs. Bertha Shane filed claim for damages incurred to apartment due to water which had been turned on by the City November 8 and off on November 10 resulting in flooding of the residence and undermining of the premises as five weeks were required to drain the area underneath. The City Attorney had directed the claim to be filed with the City for inspection by the Insurance Adjuster. Moved by Delaurenti, seconded, by Poli, to refer the matter to the City Attorney and Insurance Carrier. Carried. A letter from the City of Seattle Department of Lighting requested confirmation of City's position relative to prior request for approval of construction plans for steel tower line along the property north of and adjoining the Northern Pacific right-of-way, and subsequent understanding that the City decision is that its consent to the installa- tion is not required as it will be entirely upon private property. Discussion ensued regarding the fact that the lines will traverse public right-of- ways and it was MOVED by Delaurenti, seconded by Perry, to refer the matter to the Citv Engineer and City Attorney to report back at the next Committee of the Whole Meeting this coming Thursday. The pending motion carried -2- 411 Minutes of the Renton City Council Meeting 6-1-64 COMMUNICATIONS: (cont. ) A letter was read from City Attorney Shellan calling attention to October communication from his office concerning existing laws relating to Off-Street Parking Facilities and requirements to be complied with in the establishment of such parking. R.C.W. 35.86.050 provides that the City must, before proceeding with development of such off-street parking facilities, make and prepare a Comprehensive Plan for that purpose, including such economic and physical surveys as may be necessary, and after the preparation of such Comprehensive Plan, and data incidental thereto, to hold a public hearing, prior -to the adoption of any Ordinance relating to the leasing or acquisition of property. Having no knowledge as to whether the Planning Commission or Council have adopted such a plan the law was again being brought to attention so the proper steps may be taken to comply fir with the requirements as needed. A letter read from Attorney Donald G. Holm called attention of progress made to date by the Cascade Sewer District in construction of the interceptor line to the Metro line on Cedar River bringing service to the Tiffany Park area, which is now in operation. The Commissioners of the Sewer District requested that the City now remit to the District the amounts due for connections made to the line, in accordance with Contract of March 27, 1964 and that records be set up on a regular basis in order that the accounts might be kept current. Moved by Poli, seconded by Hulse, to refer the letter to the Utility Director, the Sanitation Committee and the City Attorney for report back. Carried. Letter was read from the Citizen's Advisory Council advising of factors which lead to change of site location for the Civic Center which included prohibitive cost of removing railroad tracks on Walla Walla and Burnett Streets and subsequently the following Resolution was adopted by the Council: "Resolved that the Citizens' Advisory Committee favors a study of a combination o_`_= Liberty Park, and sites 4 and 4A(which comprises the area within boundaries o Main Street on the West, Houser Way on the East, Bronson !lay on the North and Cedar River & Walla Walla on the South, generally) for development of a Library and Civic Center and that the specific location of a library and city hall be determined by an architectural site plan and cost study. Letter from Planning Director Jensen was read advising that the Planning Commission after joint session with the City Council, the Park Board, Library Board r and Citizens Advisory Council, reviewing the civic center site proposals, recommended adoption of the Resolution submitted by the Citizens Advisory Council and recommended further that the firm of John Graham and Company be employed by the City to develop a site plan for the integrated development of Liberty Park and sites I and 4A. Letter from Johnston-Campanella & Company, Architects and Consultants, advised of vital interest in being retained for preparing studies to determine feasibility of locating buildings and establishing costs in connection with development of the civic center site. It was proposed that the firm be engaged at the rate of $12.00 per hour, not to exceed the sum of $6,000.00 nor to exceed two months duration. A letter from the John Graham and Company, Architects, Planners and Engineers, reported that pursuant to City Resolution of 1-23-64 approving location of the civic center south of Walla Walla, adjacent to the Central Business District, they had developed general plans, perspectives and procedure toward completing; phase of the 11701" Planning Project which included the printed brochure. Subsequent to review and the new discussions between the various committees and organizations which revised the civic center site a portion of the previous work will no longer be applicable. The change in location will require revision of the central business district and circulation plan elements and further cost evaluation. It was pointed out that the Civic Center planning was not a function under the -701 program but we--e added services rendered in the interest of developing an effective plan. The revised plan must be incorporated in the final 11701" report and the feasibility analysis will require property appraisal. It was recommended that the City employ local realtor or appraisal authority. Added cost and time will be incurred in incorporating the features into the final report whether or not this firm develops the feasibility study and plan and a four month time extension was deemed necessary, or three if another firm is employed to develop the Civic Center Plans. An added $8,000.00 or cost under "701" to the City in the sum of $2,666.67 will cover charges exclusive of property appraisal. The extension and delay in a large measure was attributed to inability to secure information from the Puget Sound Regional Transportation Study and not solely due to the Civic Center location change. A letter from Marie Thomas, 7535 So. 134th Street, Seattle, was read expressing; alarm at proposed relocation of the Civic Center, it being deemed that near -the High School was the most logical location for the library. ' Letter frofl].Mrs. Frances E. Carlson commended the action locating the new library in Liberty Park where it is easily accessible and clearly visible, and although critical of using park land for buildir. purposes,in hearing the factors of the City's position,she agreed i-t- 5-as ^est. Minutes of the Renton City Council Meeting 6-1-64 (Civic Center communications) cont. Mayor Custer advised of receiving only one letter opposing the new site and that he had selected one representative of the views of the others as -1'ar as approval of the location. Mrs. Carlson felt the removal of the tennis courts and ball fields to Cedar River Park will add much needed park land and that the development of the area southwest of the river will benefit the whole of the area, and the change of site will take advantage of land already publicly owned. MOVED by Morris, seconded by Perry, that the letters °rom the Planning Com- mission and Johnston-Campanella be referred to the Committee of the Whole for study at its next meeting on Thursday at which time the firms may be considered for the civic center feasibility planning. Carried. Mayor Custer requested President of the Council Poli -to assume the chair and ad- dressed the assembly outlining particulars of the John Graham letter requesting an extension on their contract. It was pointed out that their feasibility study was not part of the contract but had been directed and carried through with considerable time being spent in doing so and even if they do not effect the new site study a 3 months extension is requested to finish the present work. Mayor Custer resumed the chair and inquiry followed whether the extension was felt to be excessive and if the present contract expiring in July would not be completed until November in such event. Mayor Custer invited Mr. Delbert Davis, Department of Commerce and Economic Development, State of Washington, to comment. Mr. Davis advisedunder the present contract the planning studies were to be completed by the middle of next month however, if the consultant can prove necessity and the Council is willing to rant the additional time the Department could grant the extension of some time, however, a period of three or four months would need to �.o to the Federal Government and would not be guaranteed. If the Council does not wish to grant the extension the necessary efort must be put forth to complete it within the time limit. Mayor Custer inquired as to the reason for extension as requested of the State Department by the John Graham Company and Mr. Davis advised Mr. Cysewski's report was that they had countered difficulties in preparing -the economic base study having assumed certain information would be available from the Puget Sound Regional Transportation Study which apparently was not available. Additional information over and above that estimated had to be developed as a results and because of the modification to the plan and delay in receiving 'Mai approval of the Council or Planning Commission during reviews of the matters, added time was deemed necessary. Mr. Campanella advised -that as their letter stated they would be able to complete the work within 60 days if retained and would be through before the John Graham Co. if extension is granted. Mr. Davis pointed out that the site plan would not be eligible for financing under the 701 planning program, that the general land use, related traffic circulation network and relationship to Business area was included but to take a certainpiece of property and specify locations for development of the site was not an eligible cost. Councilman Delaurenti inquired whether this leaves the $5,400.00 questionable as to eligibility and Mr. Davis advised it would have to be determined. This is, however in addition to the present contract and would cover the feasibility study which Mr. Davis felt would not be eligible for the Planning assistance under 701. Mr. Johnston advised that their application to be retained was applicable to the specific detailing of the area within the site of the civic center which work could go along with the John Graham work concurrently and the two could work together in coordinating their• general plans for the 701 program and the integral feasibility ,plansfor the specific civic center site. After further discussion it was MOVED by Trimm, seconded by Morris, -that the John Graham letter be referred to the Committee of the �Hhole. Councilman Garrett suggested the John Graham Company be advised of the meeting in order -that they may be represented when the Committee o the Whole considers 'the extension request on Thursday. Mayor Custer advised he would notify them and that Mr. Cysewski and Mr. Davis had also been invited. The pending motion carried.

A letter was read from the Renton Aviation Board, C. L. Day. President, advising of withdrawal of request for retirement extension for AirDCrt Manager, Earle Bigler after 8-1-64, and that a qualified applicant to be' trained as successor is being sought. The Board will advise of further progress. t;o further action of the Council is required at this time, Mayor Custer stated his recommendation to be based solely on the premise that a policy should be established and that it was his belief that Mr. Bigler was a competent, capable and qualified airport manager wi'ch whom he has enjoyed working both while Mayor and Councilman.

R-178-64 rezone of property from R-1 to B-P. (Business Parking). -1 MOVED by Poli, seconded by Gianini, to concur in the rezone with referral to the Law and Ordinance Committee. Carried. 2. Tiffany Homes - Appl. R-186-64 - rezone of property from SR-1 to R-3. Discussion ensued regarding use of the property under the proposed Toning and whether there had been protest. Planning Director Jensen advised of proposed condominium type structures, severally .joined, but individually owned, thus in a sense being single family, however, there was negative viewpoint inasmuch as the land use map does not reflect R-3 -oning but SR-1, and such rezone would be conflicting with the comprehensive plan. It was pointed out that R-3 can go to 35 ft. in height and present building plans are not binding upon future owners. Mr. Jensen advised a covenant deed restriction had been offered. After further discussion, it was MOVED by Hulse, seconded by Morris, that the matter be referred back to the Planning Commission to study and review the land use maps and requirements for changing of Ordinances relative to the comprehensive plan if such rezone is allowed, and to report back. Carried. MOVED by Schellert, seconded by Dahlquist, that the Planning Commission as a Natter of policy, report to the Council along with each rezone request, if in conflict with uses on the land use maps and comprehensive plan.

MOVED by Garrett, seconded by Morris, that the date of June 22nd be set for hearing of the appeal and that all interested parties be advised. Carried.

A letter from Mr. Del Davis, Regional Planner, Dep t. of Commerce and Economic Development, was read in asnwer to inquiries of the Council relative to revision of the 701 Program under provisions of the federal planning assistance grant. A request for extension of time and additional financial compensation has been submitted by the John Graham & Company, the revision requiring reconsideration of certain land use and traffic proposals as well as changes in the report text and graphics. The Department is of the opinion that an amendment mould be in order however, an amendment will be granted only for new work to be performed over and above that specified in the existing contract and it was anticipated that the federal government may not approve an increase in total project costs, it being of the opinion that the total costs were approaching the maximum allowable for a city the size of Renton. After appriasal, the sum of $3,100.00 was esti- mated to be excessive with the fact to be considered that all projects over 24 months in length require a project inspection fee of twice the original amount by the federal government. A two months extension was recommended and attention called to various facets of the present contract requirements not yet completed by the consultant which must be accomplished in fulfillment of the contract. Mayor Custer advised that this letter had been read at the Committee of the Whole meeting, however, in the absence of some of the members it had been presented for reading at this meeting for informational purposes.

Upon inquiry regarding financing of the freeway it was pointed out by Councilman Garrett that all of the construction funds come from the Motor Vehicle Fund which is the gas tax and the matching fund receipts from the Federal Government. It is hoped by the Resolution that Mr. McKay in his preliminary budget, to be presented to the Highway Commission in July, will recommend additional moneys to cover work durin- the next biennium thereby allowing continuation of the wor!c and no delay in the interim to await allocation of additional funds. If the money is put in by Mr. McKay and kept in when Mr. Prahl submits his final budget to the Legislature in January and it is subsequently retained, this would expedite the construction somewhat and is where and how project funds are supplied.

It was pointed out that if another firm is engaged, the plans, separations, renderings, etc. if offered in a camera-ready condition, can be incorporated in the brochure and the project completed, however, candidly, some contingencies might arise which might be otherwise avoided if two firms must coordinate their efforts, no implication being intended regarding abilities of the other firm being considered.

Plumbing Fixtures HEARING: "Tiffany House" - Faye Gibson appeal of Planning Commission Decision denying permit to operate existing beauty shop in an R-1 zone at 932 "K" Street. This being the date set, the Hearing was declared open and public comment invited. Mr. Derrill T. Bastian, Attorney representing Mrs. Faye Gibson, advised that his client, being desirous of opening a beauty salon in her residence had inquired of the City Clerk's office regarding procedure and was advised that since the operation would be located in a residential area it would be necessary that a permit be secured for such use althouUh it was likely that same mig:_:t not be allowed,it being contrary to the zoning ordinance. She was subsequently issued by mail 1963 Certificate of License and accordingly assumed she had complied with all requirements. and invested some $3,500.00 in equipment, and cont-inued to operate during the year. She received notice subsequently that her operation did not comply with the Code and that she should stop at which time she contacted Mr. Bastian. -1- Minutes of the Renton City Council Meeting (cont. ) 6-22-64 HEARING: Faye Gibson appeal of Planning Commission Decision A 90 day provision to relocate had been posted on the 1964 license, expiring 8-27-64. Mr. Bastian quoted from the Ordinance covering home occupations,, See. IV, 5a, referring; to the fact chat the Courts hold in the favor of the property owner and his individual right to use his property. The Ordinancein part states' "or similar uses" and might.'be in- terpreted to include such operation as a beauty parlor. It was pointed out that this use was compatible with uses such as offices for dentist or physician allowed under the Ordinance and that determining criteria is the impact on the land which does not reflect detriment to health, safety or general welfare, and no protest being registered in -the neighborhood and parking provided by the Church across the Street. A letter was read from the Rev. Wallace Wilson, Highlands Community Church, granting parking privileges to patrons of the beauty salon. Mr. Bastian stated Mrs. Gibson had contemplated a movemw but the cost was prohibitive. Discussion and queries ensued and City Attorney Shellan upon inquiry stated his opinion that this was nota home occupation otherwise it would need no permit and that another attorney had requested the 90 day extension on behalf of Mrs. Gibson, the violation being that this is an occupation engaged in by people hired and not -the occupation of Mrs. Gibson or members of the household. Also, anyone might obtain a business license which issuance however does not guarantee proper zoning; which is strictly the responsibility of the applicant. Mr. Bastian outlined various circumstances regarding Mrs. Gibson's efforts to comply with requirements and requested that the Council consider a Conditional Use Permit to continue the operation of the beauty parlor. After further discussion, it was moved by Pedersen, seconded by Poli, that the Fearing, be closed. Carried. MOVED by Pedersen, seconded by Dahlquist, that the Conditional Permit be allowed not to exceed two years for continuation of existing business operation.

McKay, District Engineer, State Highway Department, acknowledged receipt of the City's letter and endorsement of Resolution adopted by I the Valley Regional Planning Commission pertaining to the urgent need for construction of the Valley Freeway from Renton South through Kent to Auburn.

The heavy traffic problem was acknowledged and assurance offered that future improvements of Valley Free•v7ay will be given due consideration during the priority programming for the 1965-67 biennium. Notices of Claim and Suits were presented as filed by Jesse Swanson and Elsie Swanson and Richard Padfield and Linda Padfield against the City by reason of damages incurred during sewer line back-up on January 16, 1964 during overflow caused by rain & excessive water inadequately being drained.

The City had withheld the sum of $8,864 from its April billing .r. due to over-report and the audit by Metro disclosed that a credit balance of $7,216.00 in favor of the City exists as well. It was requested that the proper authorized City officials execute and return the letter if satisfactory. Mr. Andersen advised that the tabulations were mainly on- Boeing account and a check was being made at present to verify the figures. Action was requested at this time in order that the entry might be made on the Cites records during this quarterly report so that it wouldn't be carried for another ninety days, with any adjustment to be forthcoming if warranted. Moved by Delaurenti, seconded by Pedersen, to refer the matter to the Auditing and Accounting Committee with power to act and the Mayor and City Clerk be authorized to execute the necessary documents.

Upon the question, the vote was favorable and the amendment to the motion carried. The motion as amended was subsequently carried. A letter from Planning Director Jensen advised that consequent to extension of the 701 Planning Program it has become necessary to request of the State a three months extension on the City's portion of the program and the transfer of $2,000.00 from Planning Director's Budget 1700, M. & 0.

Concurrence was requested with the Mayor and Clerk bein; authorized to execute the necessary documents and request the extension from the State. Moved by Dahlquist, seconded by Hulse, to concur in the requests for extension application and transfer of funds with referral to the Law and Ordinance Committee. Carried. A letter from the Citizen's Advisory Council, John H. Swanson, Chairman, was read submitting recommendations that the City proceed to acquire property in site 4, excluding; property being used by -the Volkswagon Auto Agency, in accordance with the Mayor's letter of June 9th to the Council. Also, that the Planning Department be directed to make several alternate lay-outs of a Civic Center and other City Land Uses for the presently owned Liberty Park.and Cedar River Park and site 4 and, as necessary, 4a site.. It was further recommended that the Council defer action on location and construction of main and branch libraries until said lay-outs are com- pleted. Mayor Custer advised that the letter had been presented for information purposes having been intended that it be introduced at the Committee of the Whole meeting of last week. Moved by Delaurenti, seconded by Dahlquist, to refer the communication to the Committee of the Whole for discussion. Carried. A letter from City Attorney, G. M. Shellan reported that investigation had been made to determine whether restrictions exist in the records of conveyance to the City of the property now known as Liberty Park. No restrictions were found in the documents as furnished by the City Clerk's office except in the deed from the Sartori's et al, dated 3-11-1917, which deed pertains to the southerly portion of Liberty Park and the restrictions contained therein refer to public park purposes and a covenant, runnin;� with the land, that the subject property will not be used for any "other use or purpose than that of a public park and as a site for public buildings of the grantee", which would indicate that public buildings within the park area would be permissible as long as they are not incompatible with a general park use. A library, city hall or civic center buildinf within the park would not appear to be incompatible so long as the primary area is used for park purposes. The north half of the park, consisting of Tax Lots 38 and 40 (present library site) and Tax Lot 55, have no restrictions. A letter from the Boeing Company, C. S. Sargent, Manager, Facilities Engineering, reported a need for proper storm drain to eliminate standing waters,after rainy weather, which accumulate on the west side of Park Street between 6th and 8th Avenues North which at times extend from the curb nearly to the middle of -the street and cause in- convenience to pedestrians who in several instances have been drenched when sprayed with the water by passing vehicles.

The Association will execute the proper Hold Harmless Agreements and necessary insurance will be furnished. Moved by Delaurenti, seconded by Perry to grant the requests as outlined. Carried. -3- 434 Minutes of the Renton City Council Meeting 6-22-64 COUNCIL COMMITTEE REPORTS: OLD BUSINESS: President or the Council Poli presented his Committee of the Whole report which was read by the Clerk with Council actions -taken as follows: 1. Recommended that $235,000.00 be set aside for the library building; in Cumulative Reserve Fund 1975 from the Cedar River Acquisition Fund and that $150,000.00 additional to be required, as estimated by -the Library Board, be placed before the electorate as a proposed Bond Issue. Moved by Morris, seconded by Hulse, to concur in the recommendations of the Committee of the Whole. Inquiry by Garrett followed as to whether the issue was to be presented at the Primary or General election. Schellert moved to amend the Council As A Whole recommendation to the effect that .... the City share 45% of the total cost of the library project and that this be a standard amount to be financed by the City in any civic improvement program, maybe sharing also 45% in the Park development. The motion was seconded by Dahlquist. After discussion regarding the fact that any funds placed in a Cumulative Account cannot be used for any other project than that specified and in the event the issue fails the balance will need to be funded elsewhere in order to complete the library. Point of information followed regarding order of the amendment and it was ruled by the Chair that the amendment was out of order until the original motion had been disposed of and the original motion was stated by the Chair. Inquiry followed regarding whether $350,000 would build a library and Mrs. Wiberg of the Library Board advised that according to amount of space required and advice of several reliable sources,what Renton needs can be funded for $385,000.00. It was pointed out that this would not include a Highlands Branch. Mrs. Wiberg advised that we have a Renton Highlands Branch and there is possibility of improving the Highlands branch outside of this. Moved by Perry, seconded by Pedersen, that the motion be amended to read that $115,333.00 be taken from Cumulative Reserve Fund 1894 and placed in a Cumulative Fund for a branch library in the highlands. Moved by Garrett, in concern for the amendment causing the whole proposition difficulty in passing, that the matter be referred back to the Committee of the Whole for discussion. The motion was seconded by Schellert and upon dissenting voice vote roll call was taken as follows:No: Poli, Gianini, De2aurenti and Morris.

Powell and Field Representative Merrell L. Watts, that the proposed civic center site identified as 4 and 4a, (bounded by Bronson Way, Main Street, Walla Walla Street and Cedar River) did not contain obvious conditions warranting total clearance and therefore eligibility for qualification has not been established at this time. Under Federal requirements, more than 50% of the primary buildings in a project must be structurally deficient to an extent that warrants clearance.

Puget Sound this date has filed : ffor rate reductions in the Renton and Tukwila areas effecting 5% residential reduction and 15% for customers with high load factor. The Mayor had hoped for a 10% residential cut. Councilman Perry requested reading of an article from the Labor newspaper and upon authorization by Mayor Custer the Clerk read the article,written by Senator Maurine Neuberger (Dem., Ore.) which stated that the main purpose of the tax cut bill was to put more money in the people's pockets and thereby increase purchasing power and stimulate ... prosperity as well as provide more jobs, however, the utility companies are not passing their tax savings along to their customers. A New York Times report on a national survey showed that the regulatory commissions of most states are putting pressure on electric, gas and telephone concerns to pass their tax savings along to consumers. California has obtained $24,000;000 for the staters consumers that would have gone to the utility stock- holders this year if the savings from the tax cut had been added to profits. Other states have decided to forego rate cuts for utilities customers and let corporations keep the -tax savings. Discussion ensued regarding the 5% cut and its relation to the article and the possible results of the study being conducted by Rate Specialist Unnehver who would be meeting with the Power Rate Committee again. After further discussion on anticipated Gas Co. actions and service extension by the phone company, Councilman Perry requested report of the Committee on Power Rates as to which Company has the lower rates and Councilman Delaurenti stated that indications were that Seattle City Light had lower rates except- on all electric homes where Puget is lower.

It taas noted that due to the high rate of interest on the 1959 Mater and Sewer coupons, they could not advise the Council to seek any refunding of the outstanding debt at the present time. Thr. Nau introduced another member of the firm, Mr. James Pierce, who has been studying and comparing financing problems in Switzerland. 4'r. Markin of their firm, who is very interested in the City's program, is in Idaho and was unable to attend this meeting, He requested the opportunity to meet Vrith the Council and discuss specific proposal and retaining costs, at such times as the priorities have been determined. COUNCIL COI111ITTEE REPORTS: OLD BUSINESS: Councilman Gianini stated that he would like to place before the Council a recommendation that the entire approximate amount required to construct and equip the new main library building, $385.000.00 be funded from the Cedar River Acquisition Fund in ord-r that this project could get under way without any further delay. He felt that the amount of interest that this money would draw over the next two or three years would not justify the higher cost of construction if the project is delayed another two years. Councilman Perry voiced an objection to this, stating that a petition was being circulated requesting that the additional $150,000.00 be used for the branch library. City Attorney Shellan pointed out that it should be clearly so stipulated if it is intended that this money is to be used for building'purposcs only. -By merely placing the money into a cumulative fund without reservation, the funds could be used for site acquisition and little or no money left for actual building purposes. !,loved by Hulse, seconded by Schellert, that this matter be tabled for further study. Carried. Councilman Gianini also pointed out that ;,;15,000.00 had been budgeted for the purpose of providing a grand stand at Liberty Park. An opinion had been requested from the Park Department on a previous suggestion for portable grand stands, but no decision had been reached„ This type of stand, Gianini stated, might be more practical, permitting removal to a stadium wherever constructed. Mr. Tom Teasdale, member of the Park Board, commented that the board had considered a movable-type stand but were waiting to see if the Library would be taking over Liberty Park, in which case it would be unwise to build the stands now, Councilman Gianini stated this would further support his recommendation for a movable grandstand, which could be removed readily to Cedar River Park or other location if the need arose. Miro Teasdale indicated he would present this matter to the Board at their next meeting, Councilman Pedersen presented the Property Committee report concerning a training area for the Fire Department. A final decision on a third station in the Earlington Flats area has not boon made and the training area need is now, as in a short time the depart- ment will be rccoi%ring the snorkle and if the men receive the necessary training by the time the next rating commission report is made there is a possibility of a No. 5 rating and opportunity to gain points for a No. 4 rating. The Property Committee Chairman recommended "hat the Fire Department be allowed to use the property east of the City Hall for a temporary training site, constituting an expenditure of approximately $500.00, and the funding be referred to the I^days and iieans Committee. Moved by Trimm, seconded by Pedersen to concur in the recommendation of the Property Committee.

A communication from Martha Wiberg, Secretary, Renton Library Board, was read stating the Board had unanimously approved the action taken by the Renton City Council at its regular meeting of Monday, July 27, 1964, in adopting Resolution No. 1263, (providing for the transfer of $235,000.00 from the Cedar River Acquisition Fund into the Cumulative Fund No. 1975, for the purpose of designing, constructing and equipping a main library building within the general area or vicinity of Liberty Park and for no other purpose without the prior approval of the City Council). The Board further declared this to be an important first step toward securing a new main library building. City Clerk, Helmie Nelson reported receiving the following brochures from the Association of Washington Cities which would be placed on file in the Clerk's Office: Information Bulletin No. 264, June, 1964, "30th Annual Convention" ; No. 265, July, 1964, "Intergovernmental Relations" ; and No. 268, July, 1964, "Washington Municipal Salaries in 1964". PLANNING COMMISSION RECOMMENDATIONS FROM PUBLIC HEARING OF JULY 22, 1964: The Planning Commission after reconsideration of their prior recommendation to reclassify properties from R-1 to R-3 as described in Application No. R-186-64 and following further investigation of the proposal of Tiffany Homes, determined that an R-3 reclassification was not required and upon motion the Commission denied the request for rezone and further recommended to the Council the granting of a permit to construct twenty-four towne houses as proposed in plans and sketches on Tract A in the Plat "Rolling Hills Village." Upon request for clarification by Councilman Garrett, Planning Director Jensen stated that upon closer inspection of the Ordinance, it was felt that the R-3 zoning was unnecessary as there will be approximately five dwelling units per acre and under SR-1 approximately 5.1 dwellings would be allowed per acre. The Commission considered it best not to grant the R-3 zoning, but to recommend instead that the Council grant a permit which would allow construction of the towne house development. Discussion ensued regarding the type and purpose of the proposed permit and Mr. Jensen explained that it is basically a permit to construct or build specifically along certain lines, adding, that the permit would waive two regular requirements, conformance to the 7,500 square feet for each individual unit and the normal five foot side yards. Each individual - 2 - t:inutes of the Renton City Council Meeting 8-3-1964 PLANNING COMMISSION RECOMMENDATIONS: (con"t) parcel would comprise an area of approximately 25' by 751 , the difference between the total footage per dwelling and the 7500 square feet, being held in common ownership. This area would be developed into parks and enjoyed jointly by residents. The second waiver is in regard to side yards, A Towne-House development would have common walls, thereby eliminating the normal five foot side yard requirement. Councilman Hulse inquired if these would be apartment houses with individual ownership. Mr. Jensen replied that in terms of appearance perhaps there is no real difference, but you cannot sell units individually in an apartment house. The R-3 zoning does not require separate ownership for each unit, nor does our Ordinance contain a Condimimium proposal. Mr. Bob Brown representing Tiffany Homes upon inquiry, stated that Tract A contained approximately 4.9 acres, with 23 units and living area varying from 1150 to 1350 square feet. Moved by Poli, seconded by Garrett to concur in the recommendation of the Planning Commission. Concern was expressed by Councilman Trimm whether this action would be setting a policy in regard to other R-1 areas. Mr. Jensen stated that it would make it possible, but would still require Council action. He further remarked that this is a reasonable proposal and well worth while for the community. Councilman Hulse expressed the opinion that this should be a one-time proposal and the Council should consider revising the Code for any future construction of this type. Councilman Morris inquired if the permit would show all non-conforming items in regard to our Code. Planning Director Jensen stated that it would and reiterated there are only two items not now covered by our Code, being, side yards and the platting of area. The motion carried. Councilman Hulse inquired if we have reasonable assurance that the construction would conform to the proposal. Councilman Schellert stated that the Planning Commission made it clear that they would want the plans and maps to be a part of the permit. City ^ttorney Shellan advised that the Council put this in writing and that all exhibits discussed should be incorporated into the permit. Moved by Garrett, seconded by Perry, that the exhibits be marked and turned over to the Building Inspector and made a condition to the granting of the permit. The motion carried. See later action under 'Old Business' ) The Planning Commission recommends the granting of a variance to Donald C. Wittwer to allow construction of a Carport with a 3 foot side yard at 612 "S" Street, with the provision that construction shall meet the requirements for Fire Zone ##2 . Moved by Poli, seconded by Schellert to concur in the recommendation of the Planning Commission. Carried. The Planning Commission further recommended that a variance be granted to Puget c Properties, Inc. and Holman Properties, Inc. to allow construction of a Multi-Story building to a height of 72.6 feet. The building is located on land predominately classified as H-1. The requested variance is to eliminate possible conflict between the proposed building height and a small portion of the property, which is zoned B-1. Moved by Schellert, seconded by Poli, to concur in the recommendation of the Planning Commission. The Planning Director outlined the area, describing it as the N/E quadrant of the Freeway and the East Valley Highway, to be known as Renton Village. The motion carried. The Planning Commission recommended that the request for street vacation on South 128th Street between 91st Avenue South and Rainier be denied. The Clerk noted that Council hearing was set for August 17th. Moved by Trimm, seconded by Perry, that this communication be referred to the Street and Alley Committee. Carried. The Planning Commission recommended that the request for vacation of County Road ##34 Portion Tract 183, C. D. Hillman's Garden of Eden Division No. 3, be denied, or held in abeyance until the Right-of-Way requirements of the State Highway Department have been _ illy determined. The City Clerk reported this hearing is scheduled for August 24th. Moved by Trimm, seconded by Perry, to refer the communication to the Street and-Al-ley Committee. Upon question from Councilman Garrett, Mr. Jensen advised that the Commission favors the vacation, but not until the Highway Department has acquired all of the rights-of-ways in this area. Further, that if it must be done now, the recommendation is for denial. The motion carried. The City Clerk read a report from Gerard M. Shellan, City Attorney, on a proposed letter to the Board of King County Commissioners, relative to the formation of a Flood Control District. The City Attorney stated that the letter form appears to be in order. However, there are two items that should be kept in mind, first, the City signed the last application on the date of April 20, 1964, which application imposes, once a district is formed, certain obligations on the local organization, such as the City, which include acquisition of rights-of-way, easements, etc. It would appear that most of the finances in question will probably be undertaken by General Obligation Bond Issues 3 - 4%6 Minutes of the Renton City Council Meeting 8-3-1964 COMMUNICATIONS: (coni) which have to be approved by the electorate within the district. Secondly, in the formation of the district according to R.C.W. 86.15, the county commissioners will act as the vehicle to handle the business of such district, which district can be initiated by board action or by a petition signed by 25 per cent of the electors within the proposed zone. If a city, such as Renton, is included its legislative body has to approve it within 120 days, and if no action is taken by the city, approval is presumed; alternately, after legislative approval or disapproval, 10 per cent of the electors of the city may request an election to be held to determine whether the city should be included or exclude( It is left to the discretion of the county commissioners to establish an advisory committee. Following discussion relative to what portion of the City is involved, Councilman Perry requested that a map of the area be furnished the Committee as a Whole, if available. Motion carried. At this point, Mayor Custer introduced Mrs. Yolanda Johnson, of the Boeing Company and invited her to introduce her group to the assembly. Mrs. Johnson stated that Boeing is conducting classes in Public Affairs and it was felt the best way to learn about City Government was to see it in action. Several members of her class were in the audience. On behalf of the Council, the Mayor welcomed the group to the meeting. A recess was called at this time. Following the recess, roll call was taken with all Council members present as previously listed. OLD BUSINESS: Councilman Hulse called the Council's attention to the Capital Improvement priority list before them. The committee and department heads have been working on this and it represents only a tentative report at this time. Councilman Hulse requested the Council to refer back to the Planning Commission recommendation on the Rolling Hills Development. He wanted to know if this matter was referred to the Law and Ordinance Committee to prepare the permit and add all exhibits. City Attorney Shellan answered that the permit is to be issued by the City Council and would go to the Law and Ordinance Committee to prepare the .permit. Moved by Hulse, seconded by Schellert to refer the action on Rolling Hills development to the Law and Ordinance Committee for preparation of the permit and that the exhibits be attached and made a part of the permit. Carried. Councilman Pedersen presented the Property Committee report on the Building Director's request to call for informal bids for repairing the roof and painting the exterior of the North Renton Recreational Building under separate proposals. The roof repair is estimated at $1,500.00 and would be paid from the Building Department budget. The exterior painting is estimated to cost $3,000.00, funding recommended from Cumulative Fund No. 1894. The Property Committee concurs in the recommendation of the Building Superintendent, with the exception that this project be put out on formal bid.

'S Minutes of the Renton City Council Meeting 8-17-64 HEARING: Vacation of S.E. 128th Street between 91st Avenue South and Rainier Avenue Petitioned by Frank S. Henderson and Robert J. Rivily This being the date set, the Hearing was declared open. The Clerk read a letter from J. David Jensen, Planning Director, submitting Planning Commission recommendation from its July 22nd meeting, that the vacation be denied. A Petition was then read, signed by ten residents of the area, protesting the vacation and._urging the City`to consider instead the opening of the right-of-way for additional access`to Rainier-flvenue-: :-A letter from Robert J. Rivily requested favorable decision for the vacation, contending that the south 30 ft. of said street had reverted to the adjacent owners, under the laws of 1889-90, Ch. 11,,,_ Section 32, and Lissman vs. City of Renton court decis oti-� _'4.438-�63 rendered-that--a portion of 131st street no longer exists as a street. This lies within.the same N.H. Latimers Lake Washington Plat as the subject street. It was pointed out 'the"`porth 30 feet thus would not meet the City's minimum standard street width nor would it be 'a desirable connection to Rainier Avenue from a traffic engineering standpoint. Upon inquiry by the Mayor, the City Engineer advised that the access could be,provided as far as engineering is concerned, however it was felt that S.E. 129th street adequately serves the area and that less access to Rainier affords greater traffic control and less chance for accident. The hazard of the steep grade was discussed and channelization and traffic control devices which might be utilized were the street to be opened. Upon, . inquiry regarding reasons for denial by the Planning Commission, Mr. Magstad stated that the Commission deemed it advisable to hold presently owned properties in anticipation of future expansion and development of the area. Councilman Perry requested the City Attorney to enlarge,upon_ the 1889=90 laws which Mr. Rivily mentioned and Mr. Shellan explained that the law stated that ifyou platted property and dedicated streets or road's 'and the County took no. action within five years, the property would automatically comeback to the Plattor. This law was repealed in 1909 but caused considerable trouble all over the state. There is some question as to whether the roads exist or not in the Latimer Plat as he said that the *lots and blocks were platted except streets, which ordinarily would mean that the streets had ,,not been dedicated to the County. Action could be taken on vacations only on dedicated streets and if the dedication is still good, so no one can say if a valid street exists or not, but it would take a court case to test it. Mr. Tom Nelson called attention to the time when second Avenue ended near the present unemployment office and to its present great volume of traffic since being opened. The need for additional streets was deemed necessary with expansion and Mr. Nelson also stated his belief that if it had not been designated as a right-of-way the subject area would undoubtedly have reverted to the Nelson estate which was not the case. Opening of the street rather than vacation was recommended. Mr. Walt Reid called attention to certain streets in the subject area which had been vacated and later had to be acquisitioned. Previous denial of this vacation was also brought to mind. ' Mr. Rivily made reference to traffic control and development of the new intersection below his property and discussion regarding grade separations and anticipated planned improvement of Airport Way ensued including' the possible width in view of the reversion which City Engineer Wilson maintained to be 60 ft. until otherwise established. Moved by Schellert, seconded by Hulse, that the Hearing be closed. Carried. Moved by Morris, seconded by Gianini, to concur in the Planning Commission recommendation denying the vacation. Discussion disclosed that signatures represented 100% of abutting property owners on the Petition and Minutes of the Planning Commission meeting were read by Planner Magstad wherein the Planning Director had recommended the vacation, the City Engineer having expressed opinion that the street would most likely not be used. Vote on the question resulted in dissenting voice vote and roll call, properly requested, resulted as follows: Aye: Poli, Bruce, Schellert, Gianini, Pedersen, Delaurenti and Morris. No: Hulse, Dahlquist, Garrett, Trimm, and Perry. The motion carried and the vacation was denied. COMMUNICATIONS: A Claim filed by Karol Worley on behalf of her daughter, Jill Stewart, was read for -- damages in the sum of $250.00 as a result of a fall in the City Pool dressing room at which time a front tooth was broken. Attorneys Dobson, Houser & Dobson represent the injured party. Moved by Bruce, seconded by Hulse, to refer the matter to the CitX Attorney. Upon inquiry regarding possible preventative measures by the City, Park Director Coulon advised that the floor was steel trowelled providing a non-skid surface and it is presumed the accident occurred as a result of two children playing in the dressing room and slapphi1g o- The pending motion carried.

Moved by Perry, seconded by Bruce, to concur with the Park Board decision. After discussion relative to location of the buildings on the architects schemes and conflicting; opinions relative thereto, City Attorney Shellan called attention to costs which might be incurred if a decision were not reached for a definite plan and suggested that the Planner bring in -the film slides for review. Recess was called, and after the recess roll call was taken with all Council Members present as previously listed. Planner Magstad showed the film slides of the architect's schemes after which Perry, with consent of second, withdrew his previous motion and moved that scheme 2A be accepted as the final plan. The motion was seconded by Hulse and after discussion regarding costs in the event a change is desired later, it was moved by Trimm, seconded by Garrett, than Scheme 2 also be included a a possible final plan. The amendment carried and the motion as amended thereafter. Mayor Custer will so notify Johnston-Campanella & Co. A letter from the Citizen's Advisory Council, John H.

L.

Hall were not recommended for the type of roof to be covered and that he refused .o bid on City jobs last year which called for same.
