Custer, Mayor APPROVED AS TO FORM: Carard N, Shellan, City Attorney 4; o � f a ', Minutes of the Renton City Council Meeting 7-12-1965 COMMUNICATIONS: (cont.) A letter was read from City Attorney Shellan reporting regarding Petition for vacation of alley adjoining Tracts 2 and 3, Sem nd ; upplemental Plat of Renton Shorelands, that a letter from Mr. M. E. Bowler, Supervisor, Civil Engineering Division, Dept. of Natural Resources advised that it will not be necessary in this case to enter into the State vacation procedure but •that the City may proceed through its regular vacation procedure, by reason of the Shorelands Plat. If found ;_ to be in the best interest of the public any vacation ordinance will need to be i furnished to the State. Moved by Schellert, seconded by Hulse, to refer the matter to the Law and Ordinance Committee for a date for hearing. Moved by Trimm, seconded by Perry, to amend the motion to add the date of August 16, 1965 for the hearing. The amendment to the motion carried and subse- quently the original motion as amended. Carried. A letter read from the Housing and Home Finance Agency, L. R. Durkee, Director for Northwest Operations, reported determination upon review of Mayor Custer's letter, that there is no similarity in the design between the library facility planned with the $11,200 advance and the facility now being constructed and that little if any, of the original planning was of value in the re-design. Accordingly necessary steps Were being taken to relieve the City of the liability for repayment of the advance. Councilman Schellert expressed thanks to the Mayor for pursuance of this matter and Mayor Custer advised that this was official notification that the debt is now cancelled. A letter from City Attorney Shellan reported that pursuant to, various telephone conversations with the attorney for the Boeing Company the Boeing Board of Directors has approved purchase in the ,amount of $55,000.00,as previously approved by the Council, of the Renton Sewage Treatment Plant site. The City Attorney advised that the necessary instrument of conveyance and Ordinance are now being prepared. A letter from Mr. Charles F. Shane advised of interest in purchasing the sewage treatment plant site and requested that the disposition of the site be handled by sale at public auction which he feels is a method fair to all persons interested and which, as a result of competitive bidding,will realize the highest price for the City. A bid of $75,000.00 was submitted and a Cashier's Check in the sum of $2,500.00 was attached as a good faith deposit, balance of $72,500.00 to be paid within ten days of notice of acceptance of this offer. The City shall have the right to remove shrubs fencing and equipment within a reasonable time. The law firm of Dobson, Houser and Dobson, had been retained to represent Mr. Shane and Mr. Dobson was present in the audience. Councilman Garrett inquired of City Attorney Shellan as to course of action the Council might follow. City Attorney Shellan advised that the City has the right or option under the law, whenever it has declared property to be surplus, to either negotiate a sale or advertise for bids. In this particular case the City Council, sometime in April, voted this property to be surplus and no longer needed for public use and authorized it to be disposed of on the appraised terms. The City had negotiated with Boeing and morally both parties have committed themselves to the sale. Legally the sale is not consumated until the instrument of conveyance is properly executed. Now the City has received a tentative offer by Charles Shane for $75,000 which is higher than the City appraisal. The Council has several options it may con- sider. 1. It, has the right to defer any action on the matter. An ordinance has now been prepared on the sale but the Council does have the right to defer. 2. The Council has the right, if it so desires, to request Mr. Shane to secure a letter of credit from the bank to show that they are holding a sum of money for him to apply on the purchase. 3. In considering which route to take the Council may consider what the property is going to be used for and what effect it will have on the city generally aside from the difference in money. In other words the Council should consider whether Boeing Company will make a more beneficial contribution to the City in general and support it better taxwise and on the other hand whether Mr. Shane wishes to use it for industrial purposes, for investment or possible resale and make a decision accordingly in the manner it feels is of over all benefit and best for the city. The Council ;._ay negotiate and does not have to call for bids. The property may also be leased with economic return and renegotiating the lease every five years or so. It is up to the Council to decide which way it wants to go. Councilman Perry inquired of Mr. Dobson whether he knew the purpose for which Mr. Shane intended to use the property. Mr. Dobson replied that he did not know but that the good faith deposit evidenced Mr. Shanes interest in the property and it was felt that the City should realize as much money as possible and if the Boeing offer for less is to be considered the people should know that Boeing is being subsidized. -3- I r" i e ARM Y Minutes of the Renton City Council Meeting June 28, 1965 ,COMMUNICATIONS:(cont.) A letter from City Attorney Shellan reported on Petition to vacate alley ad-oining Tracts 2 and 3, Second Supplemental Plat of Renton Shorelands, that the plat filed with the Commissioner of Public Lands on May 10, 1963, stated in the certification that the streets shown thereon were dedicated to the public forever and for all purposes not inconsistent with the use thereof for public highway pur- ., poses. It was therefore assumed from the foregoing language that any vacation would ' terminate the use of said right-of-way for a highway purpose and a reversion would undoubtedly occur to the State unless the State is willing to release and waive such I/ reversion. It was suggested that no hearing date be set on the matter and the J Attorneys will write to the Commissioner of Public Lands in Olympia inquiring whether' the State would release its reversionary interest so that the vacation petition could \ be processed. Letters read from the Mayor and City Engineer,submitted ' an Agreement between the State Highway Commission and the City of Renton concerning the North Renton Inter- change. Basic changes were made regarding financial participation of the City in Part II, paragraph (b) which states that"The City shall pay to the State at the time of the contract award, a sum of $400,000 less the amount the City has actually expended in acquiring the rights of way. . . .", to satisfaction of the Mayor and City Engineer. A second change indicates that the State will design the bridge which is an integral part of the western approach to the Interchange. It was recommended, subject to final approval by the City Attorney,that the Council authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to sign the agreement on behalf of the City. Moved by Hulse, seconded by Poll, to concur in the recommendations of the Mayor and City Engineer. Carried. A letter from Mayor Custer submitted Quit Claim Deed from the Pacific Coast Railway Company conveying unto the City an easement for street, utility and related purposes concerning dedication of a portion of Houser Way from 4th Avenue North to 8th Avenue North. It was recommended that acceptance of the Deed be withheld pending removal by Puget Power Com. of two poles from the roadway and the City Engineer has questioned the condition of the asphalt paving in the area. Moved by Trimm, seconded Poll., to concur with the recommendations of the Mayor. The motion carried. A letter from City Engineer Wilson by Assistant Engineer Del Bennett, reported on a referral of letter of intent to annex property in vicinity of South 180th Street and Springbrook Road, that a real estate transaction is in process and upon completion , further report will be made as to validity of the letter. (UGN Property) A letter from Richard Haag Associates, Landscape Architects, requested the Council to consider their interest in providing professional services in regard to landscape development of the new library site. , - Moved by Pedersen, seconded by Perry, to refer t enLibrary Board and Architects.

July 19th was suggested for opening of the bids. Moved by Morris, seconded by Hulse, to concur in the recommendations of the City Engineer. Carried. A letter from Chuck Jensen, Chairman, Renton Jr. Chamber of Commerce, Donkey Baseball game extended invitation to the Mayor and Council to attend the game on Tuesday, June 29th at 7:30 p.m. in the Renton High School Stadium. Mayor Custer was requested to lead the Flag Salute at opening of the game. A letter from Mr. Orrin Madison advised of destruction of 20 trees of cherries by birds and expressed his displeasure at not being able to destroy them inasmuch as City Ordinance prohibits noise and firearm discharge. Mr. Madison requested to withdraw his properties from the City. Moved by Garrett, seconded by Perry, that the City Clerk advise Mr. Madison that upon proper application the City will consider his request.

Petition to Vacate Alley adjoining Tracts 2 and 3 Second Supplemental Plat of Renton Shorelands Gentlemen: The petition to vacate alley adjoining Tract 2 and 3, Second Supplemental Plat of Renton Shorelands was signed by 100% of the owners of property abutting on said alley. Since this alley was platted by the State and turned over to the City of Renton, it is felt that if the City does not want this property or decides to vacate said property it then reverts back to the State.
