Meeting of May 1_st wherein public hearing was held on the above-captioned. 1s we advised Petetioners will reed to file a new application at such time as the alley is to be vacated since relocation of the facility is to concurrently be effected which by law requires a new public hearing. Yours very truly, CITY OF RENTON Helmie W. Nelson City Clerk HWN/dm Enclosure F /j\ 7-/:/ pgrNED o• 2 1961 i ' *//‘,ti G P PF`�� Minutes - Renton City Council Meeting 5-1-67 :';;BLIC HEARING: (Cont.) .1: Since Mr. Ernie Coleman, representing vacation petitioner„ arrived, it was moved by , Pedersen, seconded by Poli, that the matter of the public hearing on the proposed vacation of alley per petition of ^eorge and Claudine Ames, be taken from the table. Carried. The Baring was declared continued and since the Clerk reported that no additional communications had been received, audience comment was invited. Mr. Ernie Coleman advised that Standard Service Tire Company was the party interested in the vacatioh since it anticipated expansion of facilities which would require the additional property which lies between their site and the one they plan to acquire. They cannot utilize the lot if it remains separated however and it was noted that this alley is used very little and the property contains a dilapidated run down facility and the im- provement as proposed would be an asset to the City. If the City insists that there be an alley in the proximity •::h augh to 2nd it was proposed that the alley be allowed to run on the Westerly side of Lot 5 which would provide the same as now exists, their feeling being however that it has never served any purpose presently being covered over with brush and rose bushes and practically impassable. It was noted that the alley is to no avail without a turn around which might be a hammerhead type which could be pro- vided within a 40 ft. radius or the circular type which would require 60 ft. diameter. It was suggested this matterrbould be resolved and the alley moved at the time the building proposal was submitted to the Building Department. Mr. Colem^;i . added that if , when working with the City Engineer it was felt the City absolutely had to have such an alley, arrangements would be made for the relocation, a hammerhead being more desirable than backing out, if such provision is to be _^^•l:_:ed. The property cannot be utilized as it presently exists. Mr. Colin Radford, Realtor, speaking on behalf of the Ames Family and Estate, t:':o originally opposed the vacation, advised that relocation of the alley to the Easterly boundary of their property will :remove their objection and they will go along with the vacation. Upon legality inquiry regarding relocation of an alley, City Attorney Shellan advised that an alley can legally be vacated if there is a show that no one is denied access and the City policy requiring 100% ownership to sign is met. In this case there would be a vacation and rededication by a deed from the owner of lot 5, dedicating the westerly 16 ft. of lot 5. A public hearing would need to be held because this is re- locating of an alley and when the quit claim deed is executed the City would be free to vacate and relocate the alley. Moved by Pedersen, seconded by Gianini, that the hearing be closed. Carried. The hearing was declared closed. t:aved br Ca ���"- 't: - r 2-tf..tioner be advised if, willing to dedicate the 16 ft. alley on the west side of Lot 5, the Council, upon receipt of dedication document would vacate the portion requested and relocate the alley, following proper public hearing. :else secc':1ed the r.,ation:whlch carried. ' It was _ noted that application would have to be made at the time the party was ready it being pointed out that a new council may be officiating if they wait too long. It was urged that the building presently adorning the premises be removed. C04MUNICATIONS: (Cont.)

Lotto et al) This being the date set, the hearing was declared open. Communication from City Engineer Wilson was read reporting no objection to the vacation, this being an un- opened right-of-way and not a part of the City's Comprehensive Street Plan. Since all utilities are existing in the area there is no need to retain a utility easement. Letter from Planning Director Ericksen reported Commission recommendation from meeting of April 12th that the vacation be approved as requested. Audience comment was invited and Mr. Mike Lotto stated that when the Plat was accepted some years ago an error was evident in that the street was supposed to run one direction and went another and this vacation would correct the situation and the vacation should 1u a been asked for 3 or 4 years ago and property deeded to the City for proper right of way as it has now been. Moved by Poll, seconded by Gianini, that the hearing be closed. Carried. The hearing was declared closed and further council action invited. Moved by Morris, seconded by Poll., to concur in the recommendation of the Planning Commi,.rion granting the vacation. The motion carried. 41. PUBLIC LIEARING: Vacation portion of alley South 2nd Street and Logan Avenue South 1. Claudine and George Ames Property This being the date set, the hearing was declared open. Communications were read from Robert and Petty Putman requesting that the alley not be vacated in the interest of utilizing same for a commercial building which development it was felt would enhance the City by modernizing and architecturally improving the area across from the High School. Letters from irs. L. J. Putman and Mary Ann Putman and Colin W. Radford urged that the Council deny the vacation request to allow the commercial development, the alley prave::ng access and egress value to the Putman properties. A letcer from City Engineer Wilson reported that the vacation as requested would leave the City with a dead end alley approximately 230' in length which would not be in the City'e best interest, although it is doubtful that the alley can be used as platted due to its narrow width and 90% turn. As an alternative the petitioner has offered to deed a raw right-of-way out to South 2nd Street along the West side of Lot 5 as a replacement for existing right-of-way so as to consolidate their ownership. This .-auld be preferable to dead ending the alley however unless a portion of Let 4 could be obtained to develop a turning radius at the 90% bend it would be of doubtful value to the City. A letter from Gordon Y. Ericksen, Planning Director, reported Planning Commission recommer:'.ation that the vacation be granted only if a proper turn-around is provided at the Easterly end of the remaining 16 ft. alley. Moved by Poli, seconded by Gianini "lat a e'u t:k a to close the hearing however discussion disclosed that this would preclude farther acceptance of alternate proposals as recommended by the City Engineer and Planning Commission. Attorney Shellan suggested that the hearing be continued or held in abeyance. Garrett spoke against closing the hearing suggesting that the petitioner be advised of the need for the turning radius and not only an additional 16 ft. dedication to relocate the right-of-way which petitioner has offered between lots 4 and 5, the boundary line between the properties. Dahlquist felt the hearing should be closed and action taken on the petition before the Council which is for specific vacation and vote it down and allow a new proposal to be submitted. Vote on the pending motion followed. Motion,by majority no verbal vote, was declared lort. Moved by Garrett, seconded by Hulse, that the hearing be continued to next week's • council meeting, May 1st. Dahlquist inquired whether the hearing was to be continued on the vacation of the area petitioned for or something additional that has been presented. Mayer Custer stated that the only thing before the Council is the vacat'-ua of the area. as shown on the maps and that is the subject being continued. Schellert inquired whether petitioner has been apprised of the prospect of a turn around or additional alley right of way and The City Engineer replied that petitioner is aware of this wl-ieh is why they had proposed to deed an equal amount of right of way on the West side of Lot 5 and later provide turn arround. Mr. Coleman, representative for the property owners, is in San Francisco and unable to be present this evening. Attorney Shellan advised that should the Council wish to relocate the alley notice of public hearing would again need to be given on the relocation or other portion to be vacated as an alternative. Garrett added that the petitioner could come in with a new proposal at the continued hearing and the Council would have to act in accordance with the law but the petitioner may or may not be interested in such revision and this is what the Council . would want to know. The pending motion carried. -2- � I April 21, 1967 The Honorable Donald W. Custer, Mayor Members of the City Council City Hall Renton, Washington 98055 RE : VACATION OF ALLEY BETWEEN BLOCK 1, MOTOR LINE ADDITION AND BLOCK 1, SMITHERS 6TM ADDITION 3entlemen and Mrs. Dahlquist: The Planning Commission, at its meeting of April 12, 1967, reviewed the proposed vacation of the above-named alley. Tle Planning Commission, after study of the proposed vaca- tion, recommended that the vacation be granted only if a proper turn-around is provided at the easterly end of the remaining 16-foot alley. Very truly yours, Gordon Y. Ericksen Planning Director GYE:hh Renton Planning Commission Meeting April 12 , 1967 Minutes Page 2 4. NEW BUSINESS : STREET VACATIONS (CONTINUED) (b) VACATION OF ALLEY BETWEEN BLOCK 1 , MOTOR LINE ADDITION AND BLOCK 1 , SMITHERS 6TH ADDITION. Planning Director Ericksen pointed out the location of the proposed alley vacation on the zoning map and indicated that the Planning Department staff has no objections to this proposed alley vacation. Lyman Houk of the Engineering Department stated that vacation of this portion of the alley could create a deadend alley, and the Engineering Department would be favorable toward vacation of the entire alley. Some discussion ensued regarding the various property owners in the area and whether or not they would dedicate property for a turn-around areas who would be most likely to dedicate such property, etc. ACTION It was moved by Teega_rden, seconded by Raoanoilo, that the Planning Commission advise the City Council that it would approve the vacation of this alley only 11 a proper turn-around at the east end of the 16 ' alley is provided. Motion carried unanimously. URBAN BEAVU F'ICATION PROGRAM ; At this point, the Planning Director stated that Mr. Jan Klippert was available and suggested that the Commission return to Item 3--Urban Beautification Program. Mr , Klippert presented an Appendix to the Urban Beautification Program material previously distributed to the Planning Commission. He ex- plained in some detail each Item on the Appendix together with the funding required and anticipated for 1967 and 1968 . It was Mr. Klip- pert' s hope that the Planning Commission would approve this Appendix so that application could be made to the federal government for match- lnq funds to accomplish the program. It was pointed out that all the improvements were in the downtown area of Renton; that no outlying districts were represented in the program, Mr. Klippert replied that no outlying districts requested inclusion in the program. He explained further that the funds represented in the Appendix were the actual amounts to be requested from the federal government and that the City of Renton would put up a like amount, but not necessarily to match exactly the funding shown for specific items in the Appendix; that the City had some leeway in the distribution of the funds among the various projects. Mr. Klippert stated that a total of $35 ,C®C would be budgeted for 1967 , half of this amount- to be derived from the federal government and half from the City of Renton; and that a total of $148 ,800 would be budgeted for 1968 on the same basis. Mr. Mike Lotto, President of Greater Renton Shopping Centers , Inc. asked that the Renton Highlands be included in the plane of the Urban Beautification Committee. March 27, 1967 Honorable Donald W. Custer, Mayor t: :rzbers of the City Council Re: Petition for Vacation of Alloy - 2nd & Shattuck Centl ca:en: A check of County records indicates the petition for vacation of an alley west of Shattuck Avenue and South of South 2nd Street is signed by own irs representing 100% of the property abutting said alley.

Mayor Custer stated that the only thing before the Council is the vacat;hn of the area as shown on the maps and that is the subject being continued. Schellert incuired whether petitioner has been apprised of the prospect of a turn around or additional alley right of way and The City Engineer replied that petitioner is aware of this which is why they had proposed to deed an equal amount of right of way on the Went side of Lot 5 and later provide turn arround. Mr. Coleman, representative for the property owners, is in San Francisco and unable to be present this evening. Attorne) Shellan advised that should the Council wish to relocate the alley notice of public hearing would again need to be given on the relocation or other portion to be vacated as an alternative. Garrett added that the petitioner could come in with a new proposal at the continued hearing and the Council would have to act in accordance with the law but the petitioner may or may not be interested in such revision and this is what the Council . would want to know. The pending motion carried. -2- Hay 5, 1967 Mr . and Mrs. Robert Futmar. 4422 - 42nd Avenue S.W.

Putman and Betty M Putman, (wife) , who own property abutting the alley, the West half of Logan and the South of Second, wish to maintain at this time , the use of the complete alley as we need access to our property both ways, due to congestion in the area; also for future commercial development of this and adjacent property. Robert ye-) . utinah et M. Putman April 24, 1967 Honorable Donald Custer, Mayor Members of the City Council Re: Vacation of Alley-South 2nd Street and Logan Avenue South Gentlemen: the petition as presented requests the vacation of the North- . . South portion of the alloy as platted in Block 1 of Smither's 6th Addition to Renton. If this vacation is granted, the City would be left with a dead end alley approximately 230' in length. The Engineering Department would be opposed to such action since it would not be in the City's best interest although it is doubtful that this alley can be used as platted because of its narrow width and 90% turn. As an alternative, the petitioning party has offered to deed a new right-of-way out to South 2nd Street along the west side of Lot 5 as a replacement of the existing right-of-way so as to con- solidate their ownership. This would be preferable to dead ending the existing alley; but unless a portion of Lot !t could be obtained so as to develop a turning radius at the 90% bend, it would be of doubtful value to the City.

We desire the complete alley maintained for this use, a:id hope you will realize this development will enhance the City of Renton. An office building of this stature will modernize and architecturally improve this block across from the High School. We trust you will consider this with f.n open mind, visualizing the handsome finished building, an asset to our fine City. Sincerely, Mrs. L. J. Putman Miss Mary Ann Putman An cs w\ r kv 1AA,(pR April 12, 1967 Dear Hc•norable Donald W. Custer, Mayor and Meribers Of Council : Gentlemen: I failed to mention in my previous letter to you that our plans include the complete use of the George C. Ames property, and that I have Jack ttenaroya, Contractor, helping me with this project. Mr. Benaroya, as you surely must know, built the Andover Industrial Park and has built many postoffice buildings in our State of Washington, and he built buildings for Sylvania here and in New York. He is recommended highly by everyone, truly an outstanding builder and citizen. I ask you, Gentlemen, to consider this when you are doing your final thinking about this vacation of this alley. The U.S. Rubber and Tire Company could be easily moved to another location, and it would be an asset to Renton to have en office building with adjoining buildings that compliment each other rather than the other way around. Think about it, Gentlemen, and I think you'l:. agree, that our good plan makes sense and will help Renton achieve it's z.rchitectural destiny of a future metropolis, if we do the right thing now. From a tiny acorn the oak tree grows, and from the right plans, a fine (:ity progresses. Please consider this, Gentlemen, and leave Mr. Ames prope:ty and the alley for our good use. Thank you for your thoughtfulness.

NEW BUSINESS : STREET VACAT_ (CONTINUED) ifc (b) VACATION OF ALLEY BETWETHENIBIOCK 1 , MOTOR LINE ADDITION AND T . Planning Director Ericksen pointed out the location of the proposed alley vacation on the zoning map and indicated that the Planning Department staff has no objections to this proposed alley vacation. Lyrn,i:n Houk of the Engineering Department stated that vacation of this por_ J on of the alley could create a deadend alley, and the Engineering Deplrtrnent would be favorable toward vacation of the entire alley. Some discussion ensued regarding the various property owners in the area and whether or not they would dedicate property for a turn-around area; who would be most likely to dedicate such property, etc. ACTION : It was moved by Peegarden, seconded by Racanollo, that the Planning Commission advise the City Council that it would approve the vacation of this alley only if a proper turn-around at the east end of the 16 ' allay is provided. Motion carried unanimously. URBAN B€AU't 11=I CAT I ON PROGRAM At this point, the Planning Director stated that Mr. Jan Klippert was available and suggested that the Commission return to Item 3--Urban Beautification Program. Mr. Klippert presented an Appendix to the Urban Beautification Program material previously distributed to the Planning Commission. He ex- plained in some detail each item on the Appendix together with the funding required and anticipated for 1967 and 1968 . It. was Mr. Klip- port' s hope that the Planning Commission would approve this Appendix so that application could be made to the federal government for match- ing funds to accomplish the program. It was pointed out that all the improvements were in the downtown area of Renton; that no outlying districts were represented in the program. Mr. Klippert replied that no outlying districts requested inclusion in the program. He explained further that the funds represented in the Appendix were the actual amounts to be requested from the federal government and that the City of Renton would put up a like amount, but not necessarily to match exactly the funding shown for specific items in the Appendix; that the City had some leeway in the distribution of the funds among the various projects. Mr. Klippert stated that a total of $35,000 would be budgeted for 1967 , half of this amount to be derived from the federal government and half from the City of Renton; and that a total of $148 ,800 would be budgeted for 1968 on the same basis . Mr. Mike Lotto, President of Greater Renton Shopping centers, Inc. asked that the Renton Highlands be included in the plans of the Urban Beautification Committee. t r'- ttEMbORSi � ��� I 2' � .
