Upon request , City Attorney Shellan outlined the legal aspects including fact that hearing is to allow affected owners to be heard and to understand procedure involved, it being noted this was a preliminary notice of anticipated cost and that favorable bid could result in lesser cost and if high bids are re- ceived the city has the right to reject them. 3 MINUTES - RENTON CITY COUNCIL MEETING 2/9/70 PUBLIC HEARING (Cont . ) L. I.D. 267 Attorney ' s Comments : Mr. Shellan advised that if favorable bid is awarded another notice will be sent to property owners and public hearing again held on the final roll , the total of which must equal the amount Of City' s cost .for the job. Written Protests Letter of protest to the L. I .D. was read fzvm Mr. Albert Thompson , owner of N. 80 ' of Lot 292 , who was construct- ing a new residence and felt the sewer too costly. Letter received prior to the meeting this evening from New Renton Home Sites , L. Backman and Fred W. Akers , owners , opposed the improvement if it could not be utilized to service all of the property only a portion of their land now included. Letter from City Engineer Wilson reported a total estimated cost of $179 ,499 . 39 for the cost of the project with written protests , (not including that submitted at this meeting) totaling 0. 06% of the preliminary assessment . Audience comment Mr. Dick Sodergren , King County Health Department representative, affirmed favor of the Agency for the L. I. D. Mr. Fred Akers noted additional service to be required for sewering their parcel of land and requested it be deleted or else to have the entire plot included. (New Renton Home Sites) City Engineer Wilson noted it had not been felt the prohibitive cost of sewering a parcel with peculiar problems such as this should be borne by the entire district when benefit was to a single parcel , some depth requirement not making the inclusion feasible . Mr. Charles Guy called attention to costs incurred for perc tests and for septic tank now to be unused. Mr. Louis Colombi inquired regarding location of the line and was advised it will run within the right-of-way, his concern being with regard to water line drain on his property at present. Mr. James Burch inquired regarding basis of assessment and City Engineer Wilson outlined mode of zone and termini as provided by law. Inquiry also being made regarding time lapse between the petition and implementation , it being noted that funding was not readily available plus the fact fire other sewer L. I.D's were under way at present. Policy with regard to street restoration was questioned and possible cost increase during interim. It was noted that rather than patch a street the city policy has been to resurface the entire right of way which contractor would not do . Attention was called to recent street work in Kennydale following sewer installation. -2- MINUTES - RENTON CITY COUNCIL MEETING 2/9/70 PUBLIC HEARING: (Cont . ) L.I.D. 267 Audience Comment Mr . Jerry Novak, 1432 Jones Avenue, noting prior remarks stated that much of the subject area was a result of speculative building with absentee ownerships and that the smell of the area alone was enought to warrant the sewers . Need with regard to environment was noted and granting it ** burden to some it was in fact needed and everyone was a part of the community and should Mod support the project . Mr. Akers advised he was not against sewers but would need additional:,service and should otherwise be deleted, and cir- culated a map to show the problems . Mr. Frank Pellegrino noted agreement with a frontage line but that the city could not go through his land gratis as it had been too costly. It was noted that the line as planned had been the least expen- sive to the district and although work is not yet under way in this regard , the district would bear costs of easement rights. Extra cost for sewering down Jones Avenue due to depth was noted. Mr. Frank Storey called attention to the high bacterial count into the lake and noting need for the L. I.D. advised there will be easements required and that he is interested enough in the community to . grant same. Mr. Paul Smith inquired regarding proximity of line to existing fence and as to effect on shrubbery. The City Engineer advised shrubbery and all property improvements are avoided as possibly can be . Mr. Smith felt as owner of several parcels o.f •problem topography his land should be included in another L. I. D. and that the district ex- tends too far considering depth required. Mr. R. W. Wiehoff inquired concerning the interest and period of payment which City Engineer Wilson advised would not exceed 6 . 5% interest with a 10 year payment schedule. As there was no further business , it was MOVED BY STREDICKE, SECONDED BY BRUCE, THE HEARING BE CLOSED.

Audience comment Mr . Yanken noted the Baxter property has been zoned H-1 since annexation to Renton and also before that time when in the county . He added that the area is now in a state of flux with taxes becoming prohibitive to low rent industrial use and if council follows through with motion proposed that area may be committed to a use he doubted would be wanted in the future. He urged recognition of special qualifications of the area and that Planning Commission proceedings be reviewed and adopted as part of the Council record with the city 's expertise (Planning Com- mission) recommendations being heeded and view$ of concerned property owners heard, which had resulted in the recommendations .

MINUTE APPROVAL Moved by Delaurenti , seconded by McKay , to approve Meeting of 4/27/70 the Minutes of the previous meeting of April 27 , as written . The motion carried . PUBLIC HEARING PROPOSED REVISION OF ZONING ORDINANCE TO EXCLUDE Continued from MULTI-RESIDENTIAL USES IN INDUSTRIAL ZONED AREAS 4/20/70 and 4/6/70 This being the date set for continuation of the public hearing, reading of communications was invited by the Chair . Planning Commission letter was read recommending that no change be effected to the existing Zoning Ordinance at this time . Letter from J . H. Baxter Company , by Dean H. Brokaw , Dist . Sales Mgr . , objected to revision of the present ordinance , expressing concern that prohibiting residential uses in H-1 , L-1 and MP Districts will devalue the properties and prevent future development of the land to its highest and best use . Escalation of the property taxes now indicating that in a few years it would no longer be profitable to continue operations - a look to the future and reappraisal has caused reconsideration of intent for indefinite aperation ,and by all indications multiple family `lousing would seem to be the highest and best future use . Proposed changes would remove the existing right to develop the property, reducing market •value . Attention was called to the unique problem of the several businesses along the lake- front which comprise an isolated island of industry surrounded by apartments and residential property . It was requested that the unanimous recommendation of the Planning Commission be upheld. Alternate ... actions including exemption of M-1 or new classi - fication of H-2 , or delay for further study , were suggested until solution for resolving nroblems unique to the May Creek area might be attained . Letter from Barbee Mill Co . , Inc . , by Alex Cugini , Jr . , Secretary , expressed concern over the proposed Cn:7e amendment , it being felt the lake front area in the May Creek district is in a state of change and it is the feeling that the future best and highest use would be for a people-water oriented facility which development would be of benefit 135 MINUTES - RENTON CITY COUNCIL MEETING 5/4/70 PUBLIC HEARING (Cont . ) Proposed Revision to zoning Ordinance Barbee Mill Letter to the city if allowed potential development . Revision was protested as such change would forever condemn the property to industrial use; preclude future development of multi- family dwellings; decrease property value on tax rolls and create a burden on owners by devaluing the property. Reilly Tar & Chemical Letter from W. W. Roberts , Plant Manager, Corporation Letter noted adverssaffect of proposed change to s the zoning ordinance . With sale of Reilly Tar anticipated in the near future and appraisers statement that multi-family use is highest and best , industrial being second and commercial unlikely , he felt no change should be made and the Planning Commission recommendation be allowed to stand to allow gradual change in an orderly manner, locking in of an industrial use for many years to come not being desirable . Audience comment Speaking in support of their letters and on behalf of the various business concerns were Mr . Ward Roberts , of Reilly Tar & Chemical Co. , who noted businesses were creating a problem for the residential areas and vice versa . Pointing out factors involved, on a map in regard to this relationship, he added the owners desire a clean sale with no stigma of possible revision of use, prospective buyers being interested in residential development . Mr. Hugh A . Thompson , 14032 Woodinville-Redmond Hwy . , advised he had been retained to appraise Reilly Tar & Chemical properties , his conclusion taw being that the highest and best use was multiple residential ; that the industrial improvement adds nothing to the land and to lock in this use would depreciate the land value by 50% . Mr. Dean Brokaw, of J . H. Baxter Co . emphasized time and effort of the Planning Commission in its study: svch orderly change in the best in- terest of all property in this unique areayas well as the city . He outlined years of operation by various industry and subsequent development of .i surrounding areas by residential uses urging that the Planning Commission be upheld. i Stredicke urged the Commission recommendation be 4 turned down as there are other properties through- out the city to be affected and not just the lake front areas and it was felt some alternate action might be applied for the water oriented areas with unique problems . Shane noted access should be left to the water in any event . Mr . Roberts called attention to time being of the essence with .impending sale of Reilly Tar . Mr. Gene Brandzel , Attorney , for Reilly Tar Co. , noted urgency of the sale and stated actions tonight would determine use of the property it being felt the residential restriction would not be in best interest of owner nor the city . He added cooperation would be given the city at time necessary if alternate action is desired but requested no change at present . Mr . Jim Hanken , Attorney for J . H. Baxter Co . , stAted sky-rocketing taxes have caused re-evaluation -2- i 1 .� O TES - RENTON CITY COUNCIL MEETING 5/4/70 PUBLIC HEARING : (Cont . ) Proposed Revision to Zoning Ordinance of operations with a view toward that of Reilly Tar and in support of that firm stated that di.fferen-�- conditions do exist with regard to this area and should be given due consideration and Commission recommenda- upheld.

Moved by Delaurenti , seconded by Grant , to amend the motion to include referral to the Community Services Committee . Carried . Stredicke objected to granting outright blanket use and urged specific action to cover this area only . Maxin agreeing, moved that the Planning Commission report back within 60 days .

Ordinance 2573 Committee of the Whole President Schellert Salary ordinance reported recommendation that city council for new council salaries be set at $300 . 00 per month and it under O.M .C. was moved by McKay , seconded by Schellert , to concur . Grant noted the Mayor 's salary had been fixed also but City Attorney Shellan ad- vised that the Mayor , City Clerk and Treasurer salaries are fixed by City Ordinance from time to time. Councilman Stredicke commented on the clever speculation and conclusions in setting salaries expressing his opinion that councilmen are serving on a part time basis as a civic service and the positions should not be looked at strictly for money purposes , many members of boards and commission serving without pay and putting in almost as much time .

Van Osdell appeal of Planning Commission Variance Deni71 - denial of variance for access to parking area NW corner NE 10th from Kirklanri Avenue N. E. , V-661-70. St . and Kirkland NE apartment parking lot This being the date set , the hearing was opened. Letter from Gordon Y. Ericksen , Planning Director, reported that access restriction was imposed as condition at time of rezoni:-g of the property in 1966 and that the Commission ,after public hearing .in S,__ntember 23 , 1970, denied application for a crariance to allow driveway on Kirkland Avenue NE as it is in direct violation of the condition whereby original rezone was granted. Audience comment was invited.Mr. James Van Osdell , 3030 VE 10th Street , appearing on behalf of the owners and occupants ,noted that the access from Jefferson is hazardous since an arterial must be crossed and sharp left turn negotiated onto a sharp-rising unmarked access to enter the lot and for manyof the older residents,especialiy, this was felt to be a legal condition which was creating a danger to life , an accident being predicted to be unavoidable sooner or later. Further improvement to Kirkland '5 an arterial is not anticipated and no problems have resulted through its use, another apartment in the area using this access . It was felt the decision in denying the variance was based on emotion because the corporation owning the apartment had been in violation of the zoning ordinance and were going to be taught a lesson . When notified of being iii violation :`''.e area was barricaded. :'hose now protesting have been violating the law by dumping trash north of the apartment so they cannot be so concerned with property value and ecology . The present entrance,requiring a sharp turn , is a problem for the elt'_erly residents and as no plans are in the cffing for a^!/ further street improvement ; variance was requested. Several partners were involved in the property at the time of the rezone and the present owner had felt a variance had been granted and when advised Dt:lerwise he filed for the current variance . Mr . John Becker, 1034 Kirkland Avenue N.E. , a resident 6= "he area for 10 years and in on the original zoning, recalled that when granted for apartment use a barrier was to allow no access to Kirkland fcr protection of the residents and in accord with the comprehensive plan separating residential from apartment and business use . -1- 300 MINUTES - RENTON CITY COUNCIL MEETING PUBLIC HEARING (Cont . ) Van Osdell appeal of variance denial John Becker Comments Also , there were children routed through this area and this traffic is detrimental to their welfare . Access through "J" Street was proper and a condition at- the time of zoning and this was to be maintained by the apartment owners and Council should now live up to its obligation . Councilman Shane arrived at the meeting. Mr . Glenn Burrelle , 1010 Kirkland Avenue N.E. opposed the granting of a variance recalling prior objections to Kirkland access. and barricade request, and if not to be barricaded there should have been no apartment . Councilman Stredicke expressed desire to step down from the council seat and speak from t'e audience having served on the Planning Commission during this rezone action . Considerable discussion ensued among the council and parties for and against the variance ,with matter of restrictive covenants being reviewed and enforcement actions; matter of letters not being transmitted among apartment owners and delay in off-site improvement: . Councilman Grant arrived during this discussion . Shane felt the developer should not be denied use of the right of way any more than individual residents . MOVED BY DELAURF.NTI, SECONDED BY PERRY, THE HEARING BE CLOSED.

PENDING MOTION CARRIED. MOVED BY GRANT, SECONDED BY PERRY, THE APPEAL FOR VARIANCE BE DENIED. Further discussion ensued,pro, concerning the investment involved and improvement to the area by developer; and con that original zoning may have been wrong, but that delay after delay followed and committment to residents should be upheld there being no special circumstances to warrant a variance , lack of effort by property owner not valid. Shane opposed denial of access right to property owners . Prior R-3 zoning protest and off-site improvement requirements not being enforced was recalled. Mr. Van Osdell noted all foundations laid to be very good but urged that the economic status of Renton not be overlooked it being felt a hardship is being worked there as the elderly will not stay having to make that turn , there being 43 voters involved also who will read the minutes . Improvements made to the corner were noted and attention called to Zack of any off-site improvements elsewhere in the vicinity or to the properties , garbage being dumped as invitation to rodents . by the persons demanding denial so ecology not being their interest.

ROLL CALL OF COUNCIL SCHELLERT, DELAURENTI , PERRY, STREDICKE , GRANT, AND BRUCE. CLYMER ARRIVED LATER DURING THE MEETING . PUBLIC HEARING COMMENTS Mayor Garrett invited public comments . Mr . Larry McKibben , Wn . State Council of County and City Mr. Larry McKibben Employees , AFL-CIO , and Local 21R Representative , Representing Local recalled prior wage negotiations with the mayor , 21R and last Saturday with the Council , resulting in indication that a 5% wage increase , 4 reclassifica- tions , wage step increases and moneys to be set aside for a health and welfare plan , were to be effected . Noting list of proposed revisions by the Council to the Mayor 's preliminary budget , he cautioned that , if adopted , the question of unfair practice arises , it being felt the process of col- lective bargaining which was done in good faith has been destroyed , and such action to be resisted with all legal measures available . Mr . Bruce Phillips , Mr . Bruce Phillips , Chairman , Renton Fire Dept . Fire Department Wage Committee , outlined percentages asked for in Wage Committee other cities and by other bargaining units , all much greater than the 5% requested in Renton which although below the national cost of living index , was felt under present economic conditions to be a just and fair amount due , as had been included in the balanced budget submitted by the Mayor . It was felt as shown by low fire loss , that the department is doing a good job and the lesser wage proposed by the Council was not justifiable , along with inclusion of an emergency aid vehicle and deletion of manpower required to man same . Mr . Arnold Hubner, Mr . Arnold Hubner , Chairman , Police Officer ' s Police Officer ' s Guild Wage Committee , recalled meetings with Guild Wage Committee the Mayor and Council and negotiations wherein economic situation was duly acknowledged and 5% increase therefore requested by the two uni- formed groups reluctantly , but in agreement with the Mayor . Sustaining of livelihood had been felt to be more important than many budgeted items , but the 5% had been determined a fair increase under the circumstances . The $30. 00 across the board proposal was to again bring inequity to ratio of differential between patrolman and supervisor which had finally been properly established heretofore . Mr . Kay Johnson , Mr . Kay Johnson , Manager , GR C. of C. , inquired NOW Greater Renton concerning King County-Seattle Tourist Bureau Chamber of Commerce request for fund assistance , requesting that, if granted, the same be allowed the Renton Business Community . Council President Schellert advised the Council has not acted to add any funds for the tourist bureau . Tom Teasdale , Mr . Tom Teasdale , Chairman , Renton Park Board , Park Board of 506 South 15th Street , on behalf of the Board; noted many items had not been requested in view of economic conditions and that this was a time for belt tightening and getting along on available funds , it being important to keep everyone working . 431 MINUTES - 1971 BUDGET HEARING 12/1/70 RENTON CITY COUNCIL Page 2. PUBLIC HEARING COMMENTS (Cont . ) Mr. Jim Phelan , Mr. Jim Phelan , Renton Police Department , recalled Police Guild that rank differential had been re-established last year and the Council at that timeurged nothing be done to change the spread, which it was in fact now upsetting itself. The 5% included in the Mayor 's Preliminary budget was deemed fair and equitable . COUNCIL ACTION Councilman Stredicke inquired concerning public presentation of the budget. City Clerk Nelson reported the public had been advised both by publications in the local newspapers and along with legal publications the notice had been posted as required by law advising that the budget had been filed and was available to the public upon request . In response , nearly all copies on hand had been distributed. Mayor Garrett confirmed copies were furnished for evaluation and hearing tonight was for suggestions for changes to the Mayor's budget along with any other comments which might be offered. MOVED BY SCHELLERT, SECONDED BY GRANT, TO ADOPT THE MAYOR 'S PRELIMINARY BUDGET WITH 46 AMENDMENTS BY COUNCIL PER LIST DISTRIBUTED THIS EVENING. (Attached) Discussion ensued. Council President Schellert pointed out deletion of 5% increase and addition instead,of $30. 00 across the board increase; provision for a salary study; contingency fund allocation of $40 ,000 for making salary adjustments in ranges as may be needed, to be effected July 1 . This to con- cern merit and not automatic pay increment steps . Mr . McKibben noted futility of collective bargaining this action reducing status to hat in hand begging. Further discussion included manner of conducting salary study , prior study , some work from which will not need duplicating , outside consulting, Bellevue study and good wage plan results . Problems facing the Council with regard to maintaining all employees and yet providing satisfactory increase , certain in- equities needing to be resolved and economic crisis were noted. Mr. Harold Caldwell Police Guild Officer Caldwell noted many months of work by the Guild Wage Committee and early submittal to Council and finally mid-year council action commencing the negotiations and subsequent negotiations through a paid negotiator hired by the City and settlement without arbitration for stipulation of 5% increase and the City is now refusing to live up to moral obligations of its own negotiator.

ORDINANCES AND RESOLUTIONS Proposed Drug Legislation Committee Chairman Perry submitted Ordinance proposed Ordinance amending Title VI (Police Regulations) of Ordinance No. 1628 entitled "Code of General Ordinances of the City of Renton" , by establishing a new Chapter 19 , Prohibiting the "possession" , sale or use of narcotics and barbit- urates-'and related activities and providing penalties for the violation thereof. The Ordinance had been on introductory reading on 12/14/70 and second and final readings- were now before the body . AUDIENCE COMMENT ON Mr. Ken Ristine , 8423 S. 115th, Renton , inquired PROPOSED DRUG LAWS as to how the legislation would affect the Berry House as concerns those present at the house and under the influence of drugs , which has become the more or less exclusive catering routine at this time as the Ordinance refers to a place of resort . City Attorney Shellan advised that the ordinance is to be enforced the same for the Berry House as for another private residence; that the law cannot be selectively enforced nor can exceptions be made. Search warrant can ,be secured and arrests made in cases where persons were there in defeat of the purpose of the house and upon repeats the police have obligation to stop the activity; enforcement otherwise is no different and has the same safeguurde as the house next door . 452 MINUTES - RENTON CITY COUNCIL MEETING 12/21/70 Page 2. ORDINANCES AND RESOLUTIONS (Cont . ) Drug Ordinance Comment Milly Layman , Asst . Director of Berry House , and Discussion noted up to 20 persons may be there at once under the influence of drugs to get confidence or help. and if medical attention is needed she or another adult on duty would handle same . She wondered if they would now run the risk of the police coming in , such action to defeat the purpose of the house , the people presently knowing they are allowed to plug in for medical or psychiatric help . Councilman Schellert acknowledged valid and commendable aspects of the Berry House and Councilman Stredicke commented that the pro- posed ordinance is to allow for local juris- diction so people do not have to go into Superior Court , the provisions already in effect under existing State Law. Police Chief Williams confirmed that nothing is changed as far as law enforcement is con- cerned as arrests can be made under present law but that action is a matter of policy . The police are not expertise in theraputics and where there is successful group effort nothing will be done to disturb such relationship. It was noted service is given as may be needed in assisting to the hospital and that confidence in the law enforcement agency is otherwise necessary . Mr. Joe Sporcic presented newspaper article from a panel discussion which meeting Council- man Perry advised he had attended where it was concluded that legislation cannot stop the activity as long as people want to sell they are going to find a market , but that the legis- lation will help deter and make people more hesitant in such transactions . Councilman Clymer objected to Sec. 6-1916 inasmuch as he felt a friend trying to help might be found guilty by association in being present where some- one is under the influence. He urged deletion of this section . MOVED BY STREDICKE, SECONDED BY CLYMER , TO REFER THE ORDINANCE BACK TO THE LEGISLA- TION COMMITTEE FOR FURTHER STUDY. Mr . Frank Storey urged that people be invited to the Police and Courts as everyone is looking for a tool to work with and having primary interest , these agencies might benefit by criticism and suggestions which may be offered . Mrs . Margaret Evans urged the Council not to delete any part of the ordinance as modification would weaken it, noting good judgment is to be used by the police . She also felt open-minded adults who have taken time to look into the problem and to get training might help give the young people '" the support and understanding they seek, noting news item indicating adults are not wanted there . Mr . Mike Low, 609 S. W. 3rd Place advised that 3 or 4 adults are present at all times at the Berry House. Mr. James Grenfell , 4400 N.E. Sunset , Berry House Director , expressed concern for those people wanting to get help and noted Berry House does not have all the answers , no one does , but that they have been operating for some time , doing more right than wrong and helping a considerable number of kids . He favors the ordinance at this standpoint but expressed willingness to meet for discussions , noting such legislation to be a community matter with all persons needing to be involved. THE PENDING MOTION WAS PUT TO VOTE AT THIS TIME AND CARRIED. 453 MINUTES - RENTON CITY COUNCIL MEETING 12/21/70 Page 3.
