November 17, 2003 Renton City Council Minutes Page 407 Public Works: Surplus of City- This being the date set and proper notices having been posted and published in Owned Property, 901 accordance with local and State laws, Mayor Tanner opened the public hearing Harrington Ave NE to consider the surplus of City -owned property located at 901 Harrington Ave. NE (Fire Station #12). Karen McFarland, Engineering Specialist, reported that in January, 2001, the City purchased property located at 1209 Kirkland Ave. NE for the relocation of Fire Station #12, which is anticipated to occur in January, 2004. When construction of the new fire station is completed, the City -owned property located at 901 Harrington Ave. S. will no longer be needed by the Fire Department. She explained that the property must be declared surplus in order for the City to sell it, and noted that City policy #100-12 defines surplus real property as property acquired by a division that is no longer needed to fulfill the original or an alternate need within the same division. Ms. McFarland stated that the 18,732 square foot property is located at the northwest corner of Harrington Ave. NE and NE 9th St., and contains a fire station that has a total gross area of 5,764 square feet. The property was purchased in 1966 for $11,000, and there are no encumbrances on the property. Ms. McFarland reported that an appraisal of the property determined its value to be $475,000, and she confirmed that staff found the analysis to be reasonable. Continuing, Ms. McFarland stated that if Council should determine the property to be surplus, City policy requires that the property be offered to other City departments, local government agencies, abutting property owners, and any parties having expressed interest in the property. Accordingly, City departments and local agencies were contacted, and she reported that the Community Services Department expressed interest; however, it does not have the funds to purchase and maintain the property. The Renton Historical Society is also interested in acquiring the property for meeting space and storage, but would not be able to pay its fair market value. In conclusion, Ms. McFarland stated that if the property is declared surplus, abutting property owners, and any parties having expressed an interest in the property will be contacted to determine their interest in purchasing the property. In addition, adoption of a resolution is required declaring the property surplus, and proceeds from the sale would be credited to an appropriate Fire Department account. Responding to Council comments, Mayor Tanner stated that this is City property, and once it is declared surplus and sold, the Fire Department will - receive funds through the budget process. Chief Administrative Officer Jay Covington noted that one option may be to deposit the sale proceeds into the fire mitigation fund, as fire mitigation funds were used to purchase the new fire station property. He added that if the property was under the ownership of a propriety fund, that fund would need to be reimbursed; however, the Fire Department is funded primarily by general funds. In response to Council inquiry, Community Services Administrator Dennis Culp reported that the Community Services Department is interested in using the property for storage for the museum and historical society, and he is currently identifying the costs related to this use. City Attorney Larry Warren confirmed that it is general fund property, and proceeds from the sale would be deposited into the general fund. November 17, 2003 Renton City Council Minutes Page 408 Responding to Councilman Corman's inquiries, Ms. McFarland stated that the subject property is zoned Center Suburban (CS) and the value of the land is $174,500. Public comment was invited. Doug Kyes, Municipal Arts Commission member, 3924 NE 1 lth PI., Renton, 98056, asked Council to consider keeping the property and using it for a. satellite museum. He explained that the current museum lacks office space, meeting space, display space, workshop space, and storage space. Additionally, Mr. Kyes noted that many people participate in cultural tourism, which entails enjoying the amenities of a local community, and a satellite museum would be a local attraction for the Highlands area. Craig Soucy, Vice President of Renton Firefighters Local 864, stated that Local 864 is investigating the possibility of purchasing the subject property for use as a union hall. He indicated that the property is a historical asset to the community, and asked that Local 864 be listed as an interested party. There being no further public comment, it was MOVED BY PERSSON; SECONDED BY NELSON, COUNCIL CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING. CARRIED. Comprehensive Plan: Economic Development.Administrator Alex Pietsch announced that each Development Agreements development agreement would be handled as a separate public hearing, with (Dalpay, Tydico & Merlino) relevant public comment solicited after each presentation. Comprehensive Plan: This being the date set and proper notices having been posted and published in Dalpay Development accordance with local and State laws, Mayor Tanner opened the public hearing Agreement to consider the development agreement between the City and Dalpay Properties LLC, required for the 2003 Comprehensive Plan amendments (CPA). Gil Cerise, Senior Planner, stated that the development agreement concerns a 3.48-acre site, consisting of six parcels, located north of NE 12th St.; west of Union Ave. NE, and south of NE Sunset Blvd. The R-8 (Residential -eight dwelling units per acre) zoned parcels are owned by four separate parties. Mr. Cerise explained that the proposed CPA and rezone will permit 2.32 acres of property abutting the CN-zoned (Center Neighborhood) property to the north and east to be rezoned to CN, and the 1.16 acres of property abutting NE 12th St. to be rezoned to R-10 (Residential -ten dwelling units per acre). Mr. Cerise noted that neighborhood concerns about the proposal include traffic volume and speed issues on NE 12th St., and the appearance of what will be built. He explained that the proposed 20-year development agreement provides the following assurances: • No commercial traffic enters or exits the CN property to the north via NE 12th St.; • Residential development is accessed via an alley with a maximum of two access points; • A 15-foot wide sight -obscuring landscape buffer will be created on the CN property where it abuts R-8 and/or R-10 properties; and • The lot line adjustment and/or platting occur prior to development on the new zoning lines to avoid split -zoning parcels. November 17, 2003 Renton City Council Minutes Page 409 Continuing, Mr. Cerise indicated that it was discovered today that Mr. Blanco, owner of the 7,000 square foot parcel, does not want to go along with the development agreement. However, the development agreement can be applied to the other parcels. He concluded by stating that if Council approves the proposed CPA and concurrent rezones to CN and R-10, approval of the Dalpay Development Agreement is recommended. In response to Mayor Tanner's inquiry regarding the Blanco parcel, Mr. Cerise stated that Mr. Blanco's.parcel would still be rezoned from R=8 and R-10, and he would not participate in the development agreement. In response to Council inquiries, Mr. Cerise explained that the homes would face NE 12th St. with access to the garages via the alley from the back. He confirmed that the R-10 zoned property would act as a buffer to the commercial development to the north. He also confirmed that the two alley access points are not required. Additionally, Mr. Cerise verified that changing the zoning from R-10 to R-8 would result in a loss of four to five units, and an average of ten vehicle trips per day is estimated per single-family unit. Public comment was invited. Bruce Hulse, 1033 Shelton Ave. NE, Renton, 98056, expressed his support for the proposal. Larry Wood, 1155 Shelton Ave. NE, Renton, 98056, inquired as to how high the required landscape buffer would be. Mayor Tanner replied that it would.be at least "eye -ball" height since it is a sight -obscuring buffer. Continuing, Mr. Wood noted that property owners residing south of NE 12th St. had submitted a petition in opposition to the rezone from R-8 to CN. Stating that the property should remain R-8, he explained that if rezoned to CN, an imbalance of retail, commercial, and multi -family dwellings will result in the neighborhood, and the CN zoning would affect the marketability of the nearby single-family residences. Nick Petruska, 1174 Shelton Ave. NE, Renton, 98056, objected to the R-10 zoning due to the density, access and potential turn -around problems in the alley, and lack of a buffer between the homes and alley. He also expressed concern regarding the Blanco -owned parcel. Mr. Petruska indicated, however, that he does not object to the CN zoning to the north of the site, depending on the nature of the commercial development. Councilwoman Nelson expressed her preference for R-8 zoning rather than R- 10. Councilwoman Briere commented that R-10 zoning is better suited for the alley access, and instead of using NE 12th St., residents will use the alley to enter and exit their property. Jim Dalpay, PO Box 2436, Renton, 98059, reported that he is going to purchase the Blanco property. He noted that the site's six current property entrances will be reduced to two, thereby eliminating four accesses to NE 12th St. Mr. Dalpay expressed his support for the zoning as proposed, .and confirmed that it would not be economical for.him to develop the site if it were zoned R-8. There being no further public comment, it was MOVED BY PARKER, SECONDED BY NELSON, COUNCIL CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING. CARRIED. November 17, 2003 Renton City Council Minutes Page 410 Comprehensive Plan: Tydico This being the date set and proper notices having been posted and published in Development Agreement accordance with local and State laws, Mayor Tanner opened the public hearing to consider the development agreement between the City and Liberty Ridge LLC (Tydico), required for the 2003 Comprehensive Plan amendments (CPA). Don Erickson, Senior Planner, stated that the development agreement pertains to the 9.46-acre site located between NE 3rd Pl. and NE 2nd Pl., if extended, and west of 136th Ave. SE, if extended. The site is currently used for heavy construction equipment storage. Mr. Erickson explained that the site is being considered for annexation by the City, and voters within the area approved annexation on September 16, 2003. The proposed CPA would change the land use designation from RS (Residential Single Family) to RO (Residential Options), with concurrent R-10 zoning. Mr. Erickson stated that the proposed development agreement contains the following provisions: • Requires 100% single-family detached units; • Reduces allowed density to ten units per net acre (R-10 zoning allows up to thirteen units per net acre for 100% single-family detached units); • Requires a minimum 50-foot wide lot along the southern property line; • Requires the owner to cease its business operations; and • Requires the owner to relinquish its right to continue the existing non- conforming use. Mr. Erickson noted that 106 units could be placed on the site without the development agreement, and a maximum of 81 units with the agreement. In conclusion, he stated that staff recommends approval of the ten-year Tydico Development Agreement if Council approves the Comprehensive Plan amendment from RS to RO, and concurrent R-10 zoning. Public comment was invited. There being none, it was MOVED BY PARKER, SECONDED BY NELSON, COUNCIL CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING. CARRIED. Comprehensive Plan: Merlino This being the date set and proper notices having been posted and published in Development Agreement accordance with local and State laws, Mayor Tanner opened the public hearing to consider the development agreement between the City and SR 900 LLC (Merlino), required for the 2003 Comprehensive Plan amendments (CPA). Senior Planner Don Erickson stated that the development agreement concerns a vacant hillside site, consisting of 27.09 acres - 1.41 acres zoned RC (Resource Conservation) and 25.68 acres zoned RM-I (Residential Multi -Family Infill). It is located on the west side of the City above the Black River conservation area, extending from the Burlington Northern Railroad tracks to SR-900. He explained that as part of Renton's Potential Annexation Area, a 17.54-acre portion of the site was prezoned CA (Commercial Arterial) in 1996, and the same CA area was prezoned RM-1 with a development agreement in 2000. The site was then annexed to the City in 2001. Continuing, Mr. Erickson said that the proposed CPA changes the designation of the 25.68-acre portion of the site from RM-I to RO (Residential Options), and staff recommends maintaining the provisions of the existing development agreement pertaining to the six-foot high barrier fencing over the length of the November 17, 2003 Renton City Council Minutes Page 411 development, and the 100-foot setback of residential and recreation uses from the site's southern boundary. Additionally, a modification to the development agreement is recommended that restricts future development to no more than 69 single-family detached units. In conclusion, he explained that the RO land use designation with the development agreement will provide greater development flexibility than the RS designation, while responding to concerns raised by members of the public. Mr.. Erickson stated that approval of the ten-year Merlino Development Agreement is recommended if Council approves the proposed Comprehensive Plan amendment with concurrent R-10 zoning. In response to Mayor Tanner's inquiry, Mr. Erickson replied that the maximum number of units allowed under RM-1 zoning is 260, which will be reduced to no more than 69 units with the proposed development agreement in place. Public comment was invited. Suzanne Krom, 4715 1/2 36th Ave. SW, Seattle, 98126, stated that she represents Heron's Forever, a non-profit organization dedicated to protecting the Black River Riparian Forest. Ms. Krom urged Council to approve the rezone; however, she warned that the heron colony and forest will still be impacted. She recommended that the fence be fully enclosing to prevent residents and pets from entering the sanctuary, and that the distance between the development and the forest be fully maximized. Referring to letters she previously submitted regarding this matter, Ms. Krom reiterated her recommendations to densely cluster development in the northwest quarter of the hillside, using SR-900 as the access; and to maintain the lower portion of the development as undisturbed habitat that is impassable to humans and domestic pets. She also noted the lack of a nearby recreation area for residents, and expressed her fear that the residents will use the forest as their primary recreation area. David Halinen, 10500 NE 8th St., #1900, Bellevue, 98004, stated that he represents the property owner, and urged approval of the development agreement as proposed. He indicated that Ms. Krom's recommendations would make it difficult to develop the property anywhere near the proposed 69 units due to the grade constraints of the site. Mr. Halmen noted that there will be opportunity to express concerns regarding the design of the project during the preliminary plat process. Dr. Kate Stenberg, Chair of the National Urban Wildlife Working Group, 23022 SE 48th St., Sammamish, 98075, stated her support for the rezone in concept; however, she pointed out that more thought regarding the design and mitigation of impacts is needed. Noting the importance of the habitat for the heron colony, Dr. Stenberg recommended that the fence be installed on three sides of the development, and that the residential lots be kept as far away, from the railroad tracks and southern boundary of the site as possible. Brett Kappenman, 1004 SW 4th Pl., Renton, 98055, expressed his concern regarding the entrance and egress off of SR-900, saying that people will use the area as a shortcut to the Skyway neighborhood. As this project progresses, he urged the City to consider the impact of the additional traffic on the current residences. November 17, 2003 Renton City Council Minutes Page 412 MOVED BY PARKER, SECONDED BY NELSON, COUNCIL CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING. CARRIED. Comprehensive Plan: Boeing This being the date set and proper notices having been posted and published in Renton Site EIS accordance with local and State laws, Mayor Tanner opened the public hearing to consider The Boeing Company 2003 Comprehensive Plan amendments (including the Fry's Electronics property), concurrent rezone, development agreement, and amendments to the development standards in Title IV of Renton Municipal Code. Rebecca Lind, Planner Manager, stated that Boeing submitted a Comprehensive Plan amendment (CPA) in December, 2002, and since then, an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) has been prepared and completed; Comprehensive Plan land use element policies and map changes have been drafted; two new zoning districts proposed; and supporting documents have been prepared, including a development agreement. Indicating that the Planning Commission supports the adoption of the new Urban Center -North Comprehensive Plan designation, Ms. Lind pointed out the proposed Urban Center -North area on a map, noting that the existing Urban Center designation has not changed; however, new policies have been created for the designation. Ms. Lind reported that the Urban Center -North designation is consistent with the development thresholds analyzed in the EIS alternatives, and allows a wide range of mixed uses in an urban form, including airplane manufacturing. She stated that the zoning text amendment would create two new zones - Urban Center -North 1, and Urban Center -North 2, which correspond to the Comprehensive Plan designation. Additionally, the zoning map will be changed, and Citywide development standards related to urban center design guidelines, the master site plan process, parking, airport overlay, and definitions will be amended. Continuing, Ms. Lind displayed the Hybrid Map, which was developed to show the threshold that could be allowed under a combined alternative that was derived from the environmental review. This theoretical map indicates capacity for 10.6 million square feet of land use over the next 30 years, and will be used to test transportation proposals and zoning capacity. In regards to the proposed new zones, development is expected to occur first in the Urban Center -North 1 zone (District 1), as surplus land may be available in the next. few years. The Urban Center -North 2 zone (District 2) supports current Boeing operations, and if the property is vacated, new uses will occur. The zoning use table provides flexibility in creating the mixed -use developments for business, retail, and residential opportunities; but discourages uses best located in suburban, less dense locations of the City. Ms. Lind contrasted what uses are allowed in the proposed zones to what is currently allowed in the downtown area, noting that big -box retail will be allowed in District 1. With respect to the development standards, she explained that the proposed changes encourage urban uses, design, and densities. For example, up to 90% lot coverage will be allowed, a minimum of 20 dwelling units per net acre is. required, and a minimum lot size of 25 acres is required. Ms. Lind detailed the changes to the parking regulations; and described the conceptual planning requirement established in the development agreement, pointing out that the 310-acre site is divided into three planning areas, each to have its own November 17, 2003 Renton City Council Minutes Page�413 conceptual plan. The intent of the conceptual planning process is to examine the mix of development, so as to achieve consistency with the Comprehensive Plan vision and policies. Ms. Lind reviewed the proposed amendments to the City's existing site plan regulations, and stated that design guidelines were created to work together with the zoning and policies. The design guidelines cover a wide range of types of activities and types of site design, such as building location, parking, pedestrian environment, gateways, and building architectural design. She pointed out that creativity and innovation are encouraged, but projects must meet the intent of the design guidelines. Additionally, City Code amendments are proposed to implement portions of the Airport Compatibility Land Use Report. Ms. Lind stated that the amendments will clarify the existing City Code, provide more legible maps, and make the new regulations consistent with Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) requirements. In regards to the proposed development agreement between the City and The Boeing Company, Ms. Lind summarized that it frames redevelopment through 2020, ensures conceptual large-scale redevelopment planning, establishes public and private infrastructure funding, and ensures certainty for Boeing and developers through a vesting process. Ms. Lind concluded her presentation by reviewing the upcoming Council and Planning Commission schedules related to the Boeing Comprehensive Plan amendments and related ordinances. Public comment was invited. Bill Brubaker, South Cove Ventures LLC, PO Box 1607, Bellevue, 98009, submitted a letter from Charles E: Hill, President, suggesting revisions to the proposed policy statements related to the Renton Airport and he highlighted three as follows: Reference Part 77 of the Federal Air Regulations (which concerns object free areas around an airport) in the policies and City Code as a minimum requirement; require that disclosure statements on all real estate transactions include references to Airport noise and proximity; and establish an airport overlay zone. Additionally, Mr. Brubaker also urged Council to include a public transportation element in the Comprehensive Plan amendment. Al Banholzer, 14932 165th Pl. SE, Renton, 98059, stated that he has been working with the Airport Advisory Committee, and the issue of Airport noise is raised at almost every meeting. He pointed out that the noise issue can be viewed from two angles - the creation of the noise and the perception of noise. Mr. Banholzer acknowledged that the Airport noise has been reduced due to the Airport community's voluntary noise abatement procedures. However, the place where the noise is perceived as a problem needs addressing, and he recommended that a statement be placed on property titles indicating that properties are located in an "airport -influenced area." Mr. Banholzer also noted that bird strikes are common at the Airport, and recommended that bird - unfriendly landscaping be required for any new development in the area. Mayor Tanner commented that the only way a statement can be placed on a property title is via an avagation easement, which is a property right; and the City cannot place an easement of any sort of someone's property. He stated that a notification cannot be placed on the title, as it has no standing or bearing on the title. Mr. Banholzer stated that he thought it was being done in other cities. November 17,,2003 Renton City Council Minutes Page 414 Discussion ensued regarding the technicalities of the airport notification, what the benefits are of the notification, and the notification practice via land use processes. Shaunta Hyde, Boeing Local Government Relations Manager, PO Box 3707, Mail Code 14-49, Seattle, 98124, stated that the Boeing Comprehensive Plan amendment package represents a considerable amount of staff time and energy, and was achieved through the dedication of several staff members working nearly full time on the project for almost a year. The resulting environmental analysis, City Code provisions and development agreement are thorough, careful, and fully supported by relevant analysis; and she thanked City staff, the Mayor, and Council for supporting this effort. Ms. Hyde indicated that Boeing is supportive of the vision for the highest and best use for these properties, and is eager to market the beginning phase of this property. Mayor Tanner expressed his appreciation to Boeing and City staff for the time and effort they spent on this project. Chief Administrative Officer Jay Covington added that a balance has been struck with both sides offering significant value to the development agreement. Ray Giometti, 323 Pelly Ave. N., Renton, 98055, emphasized that big -box retail development should only be allowed on the east side of Park Ave. N. Suzette Cooke, Greater Renton Chamber of Commerce President/CEO, 300 Rainier Ave. N., Renton, 98055, thanked the City for listening to public comment on the proposed Comprehensive Plan amendments, and she expressed the Chamber's endorsement of the amendments. She stated that everyone benefits by having a major employer such as Boeing in Renton, through jobs, customers, and increased City revenue. Zoning some of Boeing's surplus property for large retail use will also benefit Renton, and she indicated that in the long term, if Boeing chooses to surplus land north of the downtown area, the Chamber supports zoning the property for uses with the highest likelihood of increasing good paying jobs. Ms. Cooke concluded by complimenting Boeing and the City for reaching an agreement that moves this community forward. A petition submitted by Ray Giometti, 323 Pelly Ave. N., Renton, 98055, containing 132 signatures, including 81 Renton registered voters, was entered into the record expressing disappointment with the City Council's apparent support for policies that would allow big -box retail development on both sides of Park Ave. N. The petition asked that the City create zoning that will initially allow big -box development only on the east side of Park Ave. N. and leave the west side available for other development. The petition further stated that big - .box development should only be allowed on the west side of Park Ave. N. when the east side is filled to capacity with big -box retail, and if the market supports the use. A letter was read from Michael P. Christ, President of Southport, LLC, 1083 Lake Washington Blvd. N., Suite 50, Renton, 98056, objecting to the implied inclusion of Southport property in the subject rezone. Additionally, Mr. Christ expressed concern regarding inconsistencies of the true location of the Boeing storm drain Outfall No. 12. Ms. Lind confirmed that the Southport property is not included in the proposed amendments. City Attorney Larry Warren stated that the location of Outfall No. 12 has no bearing on the current matter. November 17, 2003 Renton City Council Minutes Page 415 There being no further public comment, it was MOVED BY PERSSON, SECONDED BY NELSON, COUNCIL CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING. CARRIED.

City of Renton Code Highlands Community Compliance Officer Paul Baker will speak at the next HCA meeting on Association November 20. Citizen Comment: Bates - Sex Curtis Bates, 1150 Tacoma Ave. NE, Renton, 98056, stated that he was not Offender Notification aware that so many registered sex offenders lived in his neighborhood. Mr. Bates expressed concern for his children's safety, noting that he no longer allows his son to walk home from school, nor lets his children play outside unsupervised. Pointing out that his neighbor would not have sold his home had he known that the purchaser was a sex offender, Mr. Bates questioned why there is such a concentration of sex offenders in his area, and why he and his neighbors were not notified of their presence. Mayor Tanner referred Mr. Bates questions to the Police Department. Police Commander. Kathleen McClincy commented that unless there are legal restrictions preventing sex offenders from living in a certain place, limitations otherwise cannot be instituted as to where they live. She assured that the Police Department will follow up on his questions. Citizen Comment: Kyes - Sex Doug Kyes, 3924 NE 1lth PI., Renton, 98056, reported that a sex offender lives Offender Notification across the street from him, and he stressed the need for citizens to be notified before the sex offender moves into the neighborhood.

November 17, 2003 Renton City Council Minutes Page 416 OLD BUSINESS Utilities Committee Chair Corman presented a report recommending Utilities Committee concurrence in the recommendation of staff to increase the Utility System Utility: Utility System Development Charges for the water, wastewater, and storm water utilities. In Development Charges addition, the Committee recommended that the increase take effect January 1, 2004. The Committee further recommended that the ordinance regarding this matter be presented for first reading. MOVED BY CORMAN, SECONDED BY BRIERE, COUNCIL CONCUR IN THE COMMITTEE REPORT.* Councilman Parker voiced his objections to the System Development Charges increase. He stated that Renton leads the Puget Sound areain new construction, and although he acknowledges that it is reasonable to expect that the development charges keep steady with the rate of inflation, raising some of the fees by 38% is not appropriate. Councilman Clawson stated that a substantial amount of money is spent on infrastructure improvements, and he explained that if the money is not replaced, the City will have to cut back on replacing and maintaining the infrastructure. Rather than letting the utility systems deteriorate, Councilman Clawson urged support of the System Development Charges increase. Explaining that these are charges that new development is assessed to hook-up to the utility systems, Councilman Corman stated that ratepayers do not have to bear the cost of. new development when hook-ups are priced at the real cost.. Councilwoman Briere reported that even with the 38% increase in the water utility charge, Renton charges less for hook-ups than most surrounding cities. She stated that the City is trying to cover the expenses of the hook-ups. Mayor Tanner added that the Administration supports this increase. Councilman Parker stated that he understands the need to cover expenses; however, he emphasized that the development charges increase as presented is excessive, especially since Renton's amount of new development is the highest of cities in King County. Councilman Persson pointed out that the City has been subsidizing the hook-up cost by a substantial amount, and the 38% water utility increase is needed to cover the cost. *MOTION CARRIED. Councilman Parker requested that his "no" vote be recorded. (See page 417 for ordinance.) Utility: Rates Additionally, Councilman Parker expressed his objection to the proposed utility rate increases, stating that the increases are not warranted. He suggested using year-end fund balances to fund capital improvement projects rather than increasing the rates. Commenting that the rates needs to be increased, Councilman Clawson pointed out that they can be increased by 3% now, or at a higher rate in the future. Councilman Corman announced that the Utilities Committee report regarding utility rates will be held until November 24. Finance Committee Finance Committee Chair Parker presented a report recommending approval of Finance: Vouchers Claim Vouchers 220864 - 221263 and two wire transfers totaling $3,037,386.88; and approval of Payroll Vouchers 47242 - 47479, one wire transfer and 573 direct deposits totaling $1,775,617.

The property in question is shown on the accompanying map exhibit. c1 IKAKAADV- Until recently, the property at 901 Harrington Ave. NE was used as Fire Station 12. In January 2001, a new property (1209 Kirkland Ave NE) was purchased for the relocation of Fire Station 12. Thus, the property located at 901 Harrington Ave. NE will no longer be needed as Fire Station 12 once the relocation is completed. In order to sell this property, however, the property needs to be declared surplus. According to City Policy, surplus real property is property acquired by a division which is no longer needed to fulfill the original or an alternate need within the same division. In this public hearing, Council will determine whether the property located at 901 Harrington Ave NE fulfills the original or an alternate need within the Fire Department. If the Council determines that this property should be declared surplus, the property will be offered to other City departments, local governmental agencies, abutting property owners and any parties having expressed interest in the property. Accordingly, other City departments, local governmental agencies and abutting property owners have been contacted to determine if there is any interest in purchasing this property at fair market value as determined by an appraiser. The Lema Consulting Group, Inc. appraised the property on October 17, 2003. The value determined by the appraisal was $475,000.00. Staff has reviewed the appraisal and notes that the analysis used in the appraisal meets industry standards and the determinations were based upon current market data and are reasonable. At the conclusion of the public hearing, Council shall determine whether this property should be declared surplus. If Council determines this property to be surplus to the needs of the Fire Department, Council shall adopt a resolution which makes this declaration and which sets the amount of compensation.

Project Description: The City has initiated a Comprehensive Plan Amendment from Employment Area - Transition (EAT) to Urban Center North (UCN) for the 21.37-acres of property located at 800 Garden Avenue North; bounded by North 8th Street on the south, SR-900 on the north, Garden Avenue N. on the west, and the Burlington Northern railroad right-of-way on the east. Concurrent with this request is a requested rezone from Center Office Residential 3 (COR3) to Urban Center North — District 1 (UCN-1) for this same area of land. Recommendation: Approval of the redesignation to Urban Center North with a concurrent rezone to UCN-1, similar to the redesignation and rezone occurring west of Garden Avenue North. The existing designation, Employment Area Transition, is being deleted as part of the Boeing CPA and rezone. A portion of the Fry's site is likely to redevelop in concert with the Boeing property to the west. Background: Land Use - The parcel that the City proposes to convert to Urban Center Neighborhood (UCN) is currently Employment Area - Transition (EAT) Comprehensive Plan designation with Center Office Residential-3 (COR3) zoning. The property is surrounded by Employment Area — Industrial (EA-1) properties to the north, east, and south, while Employment Area Transition (EAT) property is located to the west. The property is completely surrounded by Heavy Industrial (IH) properties. However, the property to the north and west is being redesignated Urban Center North (UCN) with a rezone to Urban Center North — District 1 occurring in the 2003 Comprehensive Plan Amendment cycle. The resulting CPA and rezone will eliminate the EAT designation and create the framework for redevelopment of the Boeing property. Fry's Electronics has a larger site than needed for current operations, and will provide a similar redevelopment opportunity that could benefit from the synergy of the Boeing redevelopment. Transportation - Currently, Fry's Electronics attracts attracts vehicle trips during business hours with peaks in the evenings and weekends. However, the site is underutilized, using only roughly the southern half of the parcel. There is opportunity to redevelop the northern portion of the parcel, which is anticipated to attract trips at similar time periods with the potential to add to trip chains from drivers who are already visiting Fry's. The proposed redesignation and rezone does not radically alter the uses allowed nor does it alter those anticipated for the redevelopment portion of the site. Therefore, trip generation will remain similar to that expected under the existing EAT designation. Additional capacity for another big -box retail use of 125,000 square feet in the north portion of the Fry's property is included in the baseline assumptions for the Boeing EIS transportation analysis. Conclusion - Redesignation of the Fry's property from Employment Area Transition is necessary because of the elimination of that Comprehensive Plan designation as a result of the Boeing CPA and rezone. Staff's analysis of how the existing big -box retail use and potential future uses of the undeveloped northern portion of this property will occur point to a development mix and type similar to that expected to occur on the Boeing property west of Garden Avenue North. Therefore, redesignation to the Urban Center North (UCN) designation being considered for the Boeing property is logical. In addition, a concurrent rezone from COR3 is recommended. COR3 is not considered an applicable zone for the UCN designation. The most similar zoning designation is the UCN-1 being considered for Boeing properties east of Park Avenue and west of Garden Avenue North. Staff recommends rezoning to the UCN-1. Applicant's Name: THE BOEING COMPANY COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AMENDMENTS, CONCURRENT REZONE, DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT, AND AMENDMENTS TO RENTON MUNICIPAL CODE TITLE IV DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS — The Boeing Company Project Description: The proposal is to change the map designation for a 310-acre area currently in Heavy Industrial, Commercial Office and Employment Area- Transition Designations to Urban Center- North with concurrent re -zoning to Urban Center North 1(UC-N 1) and Urban Center North 2( UC-N 2). The proposal also amends the Land Use Element text to create the Urban Center Downtown and Urban Center North designations and amend various sections of the element for consistency with the proposed new designations, including deletion of the existing Employment Area - Transition text. This application also includes amendments to the City's development regulations creating new zoning for the study area: Urban Center — North District 1, and Urban Center — North District 2. It also includes modifications to the existing site plan review process to change site plan levele II to a master plan process with augmental intent statements and decision criteria and re -name the process as "site development plan review." The application also proposes modifications to the City's Urban Center design guidelines parking code, definitions and submission requirements. Recommendation: Adoption of a new Comprehensive Plan Designation, Urban Center- North, that allows a wide range of mixed uses in an urban form. The Urban Center North is envisioned to include two districts, each with corresponding zoning. The Urban Center —North Comprehensive Plan Designation is part of the City's Urban Center designation that conforms to Vision 2020 and Countywide Planning Policies. The Land Use Map amendment re -designates the 310 acre study area, including the Boeing North Renton Plant, Puget Sound Energy Property, Fry's property, and several small private businesses along Park Avenue including the Woodall property, Metal Fabricators, the Gietzen property, and Burlington Northern Santa Fe railroad property. The corresponding text amendment sets forth vision, objectives and policies for the Urban Center North, and each of its districts. The existing Center Downtown designation is redesignated " Urban Center — Downtown". Amendments also update and clarify general Centers policies to be consistent with the new designations. (See Urban Center Map and Draft Land Use Element Text Revisions.) 2. Amend the City's official zoning map to change the classification of property in the Urban Center- North to one of two new zones. Property in the area bordered by the Cedar River to Logan Avenue, and Lake Washington would be in Urban Center- North 2 zone. Property in 12 the area bordered by the Cedar River, Garden Avenue, N. 5th, and N. 6th would be in Urban Center- North 1 zone. 3. Adopt zoning text amendments to create two new zone districts including use tables amendments to zoning code sections 4-2-060 and 4-2-070, use tables notes in section 4-2- 080, and development standards tables in zoning code section 4-2- 120. Allow a broad range of uses within these zoning designations focusing on urban scale mixed use development, quality retail shoppping environments and evenually new residential neighborhoods. 4. Adopt parking code amendments to address parking needs for specific uses anticipated within the Urban Center- North. New specific standards are proposed for retail/ office/big box retail uses, mixed use occupancies, attached dwelling units in the UC-N 1 and UC-N zones, and new standards are proposed for shared parking and off site parking requirements. 5. Adopt updated master plan requirements within the existing site plan review process to facilitate a more comprehensive review of future land use actions for redevelopment in the Urban Center — North. Proposed review criteria re -enforces the policy objectives of the Urban Center — North'and proposes a threshold for master planning triggered by any project subject to SEPA and any platting or lot line adjustments. Amend existing Site Plan Regulations by changing the name of the process to "Site Development Plan Review;" define applicability for development in the Urban Center — North 1 and Urban Center — North 2 zones and to clarify the relationship between the Master Plan process and site plan processes. 6. Amend existing Urban Center Design Overlay standards and guidlelines to establish a new District "C' encompassing the Urban Center —North. Provide guidance to accomplish quality urban scale development, define pedestrian streets, and achieve gateway entry features into the re -development area. Background: The Boeing Company is currently consolidating its ongoing commercial airplane operations on the property known as the Boeing Renton Plant site, which would result in the potential redevelopment of vacated, surplus property. Therefore, the Boeing Company submitted an application requesting Comprehensive Plan Text and Map amendments to allow a wider range of land uses than currently allowed by existing Comprehensive Plan and zoning. In December 2002, the Boeing Company submitted Land Use Master Application (LUA02-141) requesting Comprehensive Plan Text and Map amendments. The property owner's request was for Center Office- Residential Comprehensive Plan, and Employment Area- Transition designations and a combination of COR and Heavy Industrial zoning. After discussions with the City, an overall approach to the land use and zoning that recognizes the study area as part of the existing Urban Center designation was pursued. The applicant and the City have cooperated in an extensive analysis of potential land use and zoning for the site that allows a wide range of uses focusing on a mix of retail, office and residential that could potentially develop over a 30 year period. The City of Renton Environmental Review Committee issued a Determination of Significance on March 4, 2003. The City of Renton, in accordance with the State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA) process, issued a Scoping Notice and Scoping Document on March 10, 2003. On July 9, 2003, a Draft Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS) was issued by the City of Renton Environmental Review Committee. Following a public hearing and thirty day comment period, responses to the DEIS were formulated. It is anticipated that the Final Environmental Impact Statement (FEIS) will be issued on October 20, 2003. The DEIS provides extensive analysis of four possible redevelopment alternatives. Alternative 1 No Action/ Existing Industrial Zoning. Assumes continued Boeing Operations on a consolidated portion of the site.5,450,000 sq. ft of development by 2015. Alternative 2 Partial Re-development.Assumes continued Boeing operations on a consolidated portion of the site, Office, Lab Retail 5,130,000 sq. ft. by 2015 Alternative 3 Full Re -development. Assumes no Boeing operations after 2015 Office Lab, Retail, Residential uses 6,345,000 sq. ft. by 2015 and 11,710,000 sq. ft by 2030 Alternative 4 Full Re -development. Assumes no Boeing operations after 2015. Office Lab, Retail, Residential, Hotel 7,060,000 sq. ft. by 2015 and 17,710,000 sq. ft. by 2030 These alternatives were combined to create a recommended Hybrid Land Use with land use and zoning scenarios. The Hybrid Land Use assumes continued Boeing operations until 2015 and 10,730,000 sq. ft. including 3,225 residential units and 364 hotel rooms by 2030. The proposed zoning and Comprehensive Plan Land Use policy drafts would accommodate the amount of development anticipated in the Hybrid Land Use Scenario. The proposed master planning, site plan changes, parking standards and design guidelines are proposed to provide staff and the development community with adequate tools to achieve development that meets the City vision for this area as set forth in the proposed Comprehensive Plan policy amendments. a- u Boeing Renton Plant Public Hearing X Comprehensive Plan Amendment Proposal X Zoning & Development Standards X Development Agreement Renton City Council November 17, 2003 Planning Commission Recommendation %Support Creation of the Urban Center - North BLand Use Policies (amended draft in Council packets) ©Land Use Map Changes Land Use Policies XCreates the new Urban Center North Designation XConsistent with the development thresholds analyzed in the EIS alternatives ©Retail OOffice, Labjrech ©Multi-Famlly Housing OContinuing Airplane Manu facturing XCreates new Urban Center policies 9Other Citywide policies applicable to Centers Current Status • Applicant submitted Comp.

BACKGROUND: The Boeing Company is currently consolidating its ongoing commercial airplane operations on the property known as the Boeing Renton Plant site, which would result in the potential redevelopment of vacated, surplus property. Therefore, the Boeing Company submitted an application requesting Comprehensive Plan Text and Map amendments to allow a wider range of land uses than currently allowed by existing Comprehensive Plan and zoning. \\DAEDALUS\SYS2\SHARED\EDNSP\Comp Plan\Amendments\2003\State Submission - 2003\2003-M- 13\APPLICATION 2003-M-13REVISED.doc #2003-M-13 CPA Staff Recommendation Page 3 11/17/2003 In December 2002, the Boeing Company submitted Land Use Master Application (LUA02-141) requesting Comprehensive Plan Text and Map amendments. The property owner's request was for Center Office- Residential Comprehensive Plan, and Employment Area- Transition designations and a combination of COR and Heavy Industrial zoning. After discussions with the City, an overall approach to the land use and zoning that recognizes the study area as part of the existing Urban Center designation was pursued. The applicant and the City have cooperated in an extensive analysis of potential land use and zoning for the site that allows a wide range of uses focusing on a mix of retail, office and residential that could potentially develop over a 30 year period. As part of this review process the proposed Comprehensive Plan review and study area was expanded to include several smaller private parcels in order to create logical borders for a new land use designation. Property owners of these parcels were notified and included in the review process. The City of Renton Environmental Review Committee issued a Determination of Significance on March 4, 2003. The City of Renton, in accordance with the State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA) process, issued a Scoping Notice and Scoping Document on March 10, 2003. On July 9, 2003, a Draft Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS) was issued by the City of Renton Environmental Review Committee. Following a public hearing and thirty day comment period, responses to the DEIS were formulated. The Final Environmental Impact Statement (FEIS) was issued on October 21, 2003. The DEIS provides extensive analysis of four possible redevelopment alternatives. Alternative 1 No Action/ Existing Industrial Zoning. Assumes continued Boeing Operations on a consolidated portion of the site (5,450,000 sq. ft of development by 2015). Alternative 2 Partial Re -development. Assumes continued Boeing operations on a consolidated portion of the site, Office/ Lab, Retail (5,130,000 sq. ft. by 2015). Alternative 3 Full Re -development. Assumes no Boeing operations after 2015; Office Lab, Retail, Residential uses (6,345,000 sq. ft. by 2015 and 11,710,000 sq. ft by 2030). Alternative 4 Full Re -development. Assumes no Boeing operations after 2015; Office/ Lab, Retail, Residential, Hotel (7,060,000 sq. ft. by 2015 and 17,710,000 sq. ft. by 2030). CAPACITY ANALYSIS: The alternatives studied in the DEIS were combined to create a recommended Hybrid Land Use Option (maps attached) with two optional land use and zoning scenarios. The Hybrid Land Use assumes continued Boeing operations until 2015 and 10,730,000 sq. ft. including 3,225 residential units and 364 hotel rooms by 2030. The two options differ \\DAEDALUS\SYS2\SHARED\EDNSP\Comp Plan\Amendments\2003\State Submission - 2003\2003-M- MAPPLICATION 2003-M-13REVISED.doc #2003-M-13 CPA Staff Recommendation Page 4 11/17/2003 only in the amount of retail use modeled. Option 1 allows more flex/office use and less retail. Option 2 allows a large retail shopping center as an alternative. The attached policy draft includes amendments to the Land Use Element of the Comprehensive Plan that would accommodate both optional land use scenarios. New proposed zoning is broad enough to also implement both alternatives. The proposed master planning, site plan changes parking standards and design guidelines are proposed to provide staff and the development community with adequate tools to achieve development that meets the City vision for this area as set forth in the proposed Comprehensive Plan policy amendments. REVIEW CRITERIA (Find at least one) 1. The request supports the vision embodied in the Comprehensive Plan, or 2. The request supports the adopted Business Plan goals established by the City Council, 3. The request eliminates conflicts with existing elements or policies, or 4. The request amends the Comprehensive Plan to accommodate new policy directives of the City Council This application for a Comprehensive Plan amendment meets section 4-9-020G. Review Criteria of Title IV Renton Municipal Code in that it supports criteria 1 relating to the Vision in the adopted Comprehensive Plan. This application provide further policy direction to implement the City's Urban Center and accommodate growth in a mixed use employment, retail and commercial center of the City. The proposal also meets adopted Business Plan Goal 1 "To promote citywide economic development," by providing additional employment capacity to diversify the employment base. The proposal also provides a policy basis to transition industrial properties to their highest and best use and facilitates quality development of waterfront land. ZONING CONCURRENCY: Concurrent rezoning is proposed to either Urban Center- North 1 and Urban Center North 2 for all properties in the study area. The proposed concurrent rezoning and the accompanying implementing ordinances including site development planning, design standards and guidelines, and parking standards provide the tools to implement the objectives of the new Urban Center North Land Use Designation.

Since the most recent land use analysis or area zoning of the subject property, authorized public improvements, permitted private development or other circumstances affecting the subject property have undergone significant and material change. Several properties are included with this Comprehensive Plan amendment action including property owned by the Boeing Company, property owners, Wendall and, Wiemeyer, Burlington Northern Railroad, and Puget Sound Energy. All properties included within the proposed Comprehensive Plan amendment are intended to have concurrent area -wide rezoning based on conformance to the new Comprehensive Plan Designation, Urban Center - North. In all cases the reclassification was not considered at the time of the last area land use analysis and area zoning in 1995. As a result of regional changes in the manufacturing sector and decisions made by the Boeing Company to consolidate operations on a portion of their plan site (District 2 within the new land use designation), land areas formerly used for parking and operations to support manufacturing of airplanes are no longer used for this purpose. This changed circumstance has created the opportunity for the City to review land use in the North Renton area including properties owned by the Boeing Company and other privately owned parcels in the immediate vicinity to determine the policy direction for future use and development in ways that were not contemplated or analyzed in 1995. The concurrent area -wide re -zoning of these properties into one of two new zones, Urban Center -North 1 or Urban Center -North 2 is needed to create compliance with the Comprehensive Plan. Boeing parcels re -zoned into Urban Center- North 1 include 13.77 acres located on Park avenue North, between North 5th and North 81h Street, 89.85 acres located north of North 6` l Street, between Logan Avenue North and Garden Avenue North, and 2.78 acres located at Logan Avenue North and North 6 h Street. Wiemeyer property included in the area- wide action include .40 acres located at North 5`h Street and Garden Avenue North. Wendall property include.57 acres located at Park Avenue North and north 6th Street. Properties re -designated into Urban Center- North 2 include 3.91 acres of Burlington Northern property located at Lake Washington Boulevard North, 154.47 acres of Boeing property located between Like Washington on the north, Nishiwaki Lane on the west, and Logan Avenue North on the east, and 10.09 acres of Puget sound Energy -property located abutting Lake Washington Boulevard North. CONCLUSION The proposed Comprehensive Plan Amendment re -designate land within the study area from Employment —Area — Industrial with Heavy Industrial zoning, Employment — Area - Office with Commercial Office zoning and Employment Area- Transition with Heavy Industrial zoning, create a new Urban Center- North Comprehensive Plan Designation. \\DAEDALUS\SYS2\SHARED\EDNSP\Comp Plan\Amendments\2003\State Submission - 2003\2003-M- MAPPLICATION 2003-M-13REVISED.doc #2003-M-13 CPA •.

Pietsch, Administrator G. Del Rosario p 24 September 2003 Renton/Boeing Urban Center —North Development Agreement Summary Purpose: Provides the City with a mechanism to direct redevelopment of all or portions of the 280-acre Boeing Renton Plant toward its adopted vision and goals and outlines a public/private partnership for the phased funding of supporting infrastructure. Redevelopment Planning: The Plant is divided into three planning areas. At the time at which property is made surplus, a conceptual plan must be completed for the entirety of the corresponding area. The Plan must be adopted by the City Council and will serve as the basis for all future permits applications. Adoption of this Agreement grants approval for the Conceptual Plan for Subdistrict 1A (Lot 3 and 10-50), showing an integrated retail development made up of large and medium -format retail stores, as well as small shops oriented along Park Avenue, totaling 550,000 sf. Structured parking and/or upper -story residential or office development could occur in initial or subsequent phases. It is assumed that this development will generate $1.2 million a year in one-time revenues to the City and recurring revenues escalating to $1.5 million a year by 2009. Infrastructure Funding: Renton agrees to pay for the required arterial roads and trunk line utilities (water, stormwater and sewer). $1.5 million in 2003 year-end fund balance will be earmarked for roadway design and work will begin immediately. The road and utility network has been segmented to allow for phased construction that corresponds with actual redevelopment. For example, if initial redevelopment only occurs in a discreet area, only the infrastructure required to serve that development would be constructed. City staff has calculated preliminary cost estimates for the required Infrastructure: Subdistrict 1A (full buildout) $12.1 million Subdistrict 1 B (full buildout) 2.1 million District 2 (full buildout) 19.2 million TOTAL $33.5 million The City will issue bonds to fund infrastructure costs. Therefore, the City only agrees to construct infrastructure if redevelopment is anticipated to generate enough tax revenue to pay the obligated debt service. The City will set aside two-thirds of all revenue generated by redevelopment to pay debt service. The remaining one-third will be used to fund general governmental services. Boeing will dedicate to the City all required right of way at no cost. Boeing will pay a share of the cost of the intersection improvements providing access to its property (left -turn lanes, signals, etc). Boeing or future property owners will build all additional infrastructure (local roads, utility systems, etc.). Vesting: Boeing is vested to the Comprehensive Plan Vision and Policies and the zoning use table for the term of the agreement. The Conceptual Retail Plan for Subdistrict 1A is vested to development regulations (including design guidelines) for three years. Future Conceptual Plans are vested to development regulations in place at the time of approval for three years, with the exception of a District 2 Conceptual Plan, which would vest for five years. Additional vesting periods will be granted with subsequent land use (master plan or site plan) approval. At any time, Boeing may elect to adopt future changes to the City's Land Use Policies and regulations. Further, the City reserves the authority to impose new public health and safety regulations, such as the upcoming adoption of the International Building Codes. Renegotiation: If these assumptions or strategies change significantly, the parties may jointly elect to renegotiate the Agreement.

Testimony for Renton City Council Public Hearing on The Boeing Company Comprehensive Plan amendments, concurrent rezone, development agreement and City Code amendments Monday, November 17, 2003 Honorable Mayor Tanner and members of the City Council, thank you for the opportunity to speak to you this evening. It has been an amazing year and on behalf of The Boeing Company, I would like to say we are excited to be before you this evening positively affirming the voluminous amount of work you will be considering. The package before you this evening represents a considerable amount of staff time and energy that should not go unnoticed. It was the intent of the Mayor and Council to have all work completed by the end of the year and it was our job to meet that goal. However, while the work did come together rapidly, the process was in no way short-changed. This goal was achieved through the dedication of several staff members working nearly full time to this project for nearly a year. An extraordinary amount of resources dedicated by Renton to ensure that, although on a fast -track, the resulting environmental analysis, code provisions and development agreement are thorough, careful, and fully supported by relevant analysis. I would like to acknowledge the Economic Development, Neighborhoods, & Strategic Planning, along with the Planning, Building and Public Works staff who helped support this effort. We would like to thank the Mayor and City Council for your support of redevelopment on the underutilized property Boeing will be surplusing. The documents before you are intended to ensure that the City's vision and Boeing's vision of highest and best use for these properties will guide the future development of the site. We are supportive of that vision and eager to market the beginning phase of this property. The development agreement outlines a predictable path for the City, Boeing and ultimately the future owner of this property. The Boeing Company P.O. Box 3707 Seattle. WA 98124-2207 For more than 50 years, the Boeing Company and the City of Renton have worked as partners on numerous projects. This plan for redevelopment of the surplus property is a continuation of our partnership. It is important to remember that the initial property to be made available for redevelopment is only the beginning. In. the future, as possible properties become available this entire comprehensive package allows for unlimited choices--- from biotech labs, residential, to office mixed -uses --- the possibilities are endless. We look to forward to all the new opportunities 2004 will bring! Thank you. Shaunta R. Hyde Local Government Relations Manager The Boeing Company P.O. Box 3707, MC14-49 Seattle, WA 98124 President's Comments for Renton City Council Public Bearing on the loin Boeing Renton Comprehensive Plan Zoning Amendments :1 ?-aoo3 November 17, 2003 Mayor Tanner, Renton City Council members, and staff. I am Suzette Cooke, President & CEO of the Greater Renton Chamber of Commerce, 300 Rainier Ave. N. Thank you for listening to public comment on the proposed comprehensive plan and zoning amendments for properties owned by Boeing and Fry's Electronics. Our Chamber's mission is to improve business and economic conditions, and the general welfare of the community. In support of that mission, we endorse the comprehensive plan and zoning amendments before you this evening. The zoning changes and development agreement strike a balance between the City's need for increased revenue and Boeing's need to remain a viable industry in Renton. Boeing has done a commendable job of remaining competitive in its world market. We share pride in knowing that the popular Boeing 737 is built in Renton. And we complement Boeing on its structural improvements as part of its "Move to the Lake." We like the spin-off effects of numerous Boeing suppliers that employ additional Renton residents, and the good paying jobs that they and Boeing provide. Some of those wages find their way to other businesses in our community through the purchase of local goods and services. We all benefit with Boeing as our major employer, through jobs, customers and increased city revenue. Zoning some of Boeing's surplus property as retail in a way that can accommodate large retailers has two major benefits: 1. It allows the property owner the flexibility to sell more quickly in our economic climate, and 2. It positions Renton to capture the current public demand to purchase from large retailers that offer a wide selection of goods at lower prices. Big, national retailers can bring people to Renton's door who would otherwise not stop. Once in the city, it is the challenge of our local businesses to attract these customers for additional sales and experiences. In the longer term, if Boeing or other property owners surplus land north of Downtown Renton, we support zoning the property for uses with the highest likelihood of increasing good paying jobs. We believe Renton can — and should - be a major player in establishing a science city in the Pacific Northwest. But we are also practical in knowing the risk Boeing would take at this time if it had to wait for all the pieces to come together to make Explore Life come to life in Renton today. The proposed zoning amendments do not eliminate our vision to be a science city, but they do challenge us to work more effectively in gaining the national and statewide recognition and coordination to make it happen. Perhaps now that Boeing's EIS and requested zoning changes are soon to be complete, the company would find a way to partner with us to assist in pursuing that vision. In closing, we wish to compliment Boeing. and City staff for their intense work on completing the EIS in such record time, and in reaching an agreement that moves us . I . forward as a community. Once again we can show that Renton is truly a city ripe with opportunities. Thank you for the opportunity to comment. We look forward to working with: Boeing and the City in promoting the available property, and to welcome future businesses to Renton.

The City of Renton and the City Council has the opportunity to control the development of the most valuable land in Renton that will be available this century. As citizens that reside and work around this land, we view this as a great opportunity to bring in business that will help the city achieve its goals in the long term. This means that we must exercise patience and self-control when looking at the uses of this land. By allowing "big box" development on both sides of Park Avenue at such an early stage the City Council is exercising neither. As citizens, we understand that "big box" stores may someday occupy the land west of Park Avenue. We are asking that the city create zoning that will initially allow "big box" only on the east side of Park Avenue. By actively .controlling the placement of these stores, the planning department will leave the property west of Park Avenue and east of Logan intact and available for -other development. Once the east side of Park Avenue is filled to capacity with "big box" stores and if the market supports the use, then and only then, should big box development be allowed west of Park Avenue. There is still time for the Council to change the direction that the development is taking. Please take the time to consider the options that are available. At this time development plans seem to be moving ahead much too quickly. Once the first "big box" store is built west of Park Avenue while there is still capacity east of Park Avenue, it will be too late. The City has a great opportunity with this development and we feel that the Council is not making the correct decision.

Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council: RE: The Boeing Company Comprehensive Plan Amendments, etc.; (# 2003-M-13; LUA-02-141); a Subject & Hearing before the Renton City Council on November 17, 2003 at 7:30 PM In reviewing such documentation as exists of public record or has been furnished to us relating to the above matter, we note, and object to, the following: 1. Implied inclusion of Southport property in this rezone, etc.: A. As shown in Fuller Sears Architects, presentation of September 15, 2003, in aerial color photo overlay(s) and proposed roads. B. As shown in Boeing Renton Comprehensive Plan Amendment Draft EIS, Vol. I in Figures 3.10-5, 3.10-6, 3.10-7, traffic modeling discussion, and elsewhere; and C. In oral advice given in late September 2003, by Alex Pietsch, Economic Development Director for the City of Renton, to the signer of this letter, upon hearing of this, that there need be no concern because Southport was "grandfathered". This issue may be resolved by viewing Southport solely as an out -of -rezone area to be served by the applicant's mitigation obligations (which may also involve the item described below, but which also arises independently). 2. Inconsistencies concerning the true location of Outfall No. 12. Recently verified, the field location of Boeing storm drainage Outfall No. 12 which is on Southport property south of the shoreline within the discharge tunnel as shown on enclosed exhibit A by the point marked 'Y'. The following drawings, being relied upon by the City in connection with this record, incorrectly show storm drainage Outfall No. 12's location bypassing Southport property and emptying directly into the discharge channel north of the shore line: A. September 12, 1985 Boeing facilities department Storm Drainage Plan obtained from the City of Renton B. April 30 1986 Boeing facilities department Storm Drainage Plan obtained from the City of Renton C. Figure 2.2 from the Boeing Renton Comprehensive Plan Amendment Draft EIS, Volume II, Appendix B. These inconsistencies result in an omission of the identification of the party or parties affected by Outfall No. 12's drainage (the content of which does not appear to have been analyzed). If there are any negative effects resulting from development or activities caused by the proposed rezone, this letter constitutes our notice that as one of those parties, we will hold accountable those responsible.

We wish to congratulate you, the City, and its Planning Department, for a fair and thorough process. In fact, we have yet to find a municipality that has been as meticulous in its process as Renton, especially in developing the Aircraft Compatible Land Use Plan. As a user of the Renton Airport, we are vitally interested in the future of the Airport and its continued operation. Our desire, like yours, is to see that the Airport evolves in a manner that will not threaten its operation, or for that matter its existence. We see the Airport as a key economic attraction for those businesses and people who will eventually inhabit the Comp Plan area.. We further believe the Airport's development should coincide with that of the area being rezoned. As you deliberate this very important matter, we would appreciate your consideration of the following points: • There is an inherent risk in designating any portion of the Airport or its environs as a "high risk" area. It has been demonstrated that by doing so there is a danger of anti -airport forces using such designations as justifiable reasons for seeking limitation of airport use, if not closing an airport altogether. • Airport safety is implied, if not accomplished, in the design of the Airport itself. That is why there are towers, runway protection zones, course rules, object fee areas, altitude designations and FAR Part 77 requirements. The establishment of emergency landing "open space" near the Airport would serve only to heighten the concerns of an already suspicious public about the safety of airports. It is impossible to know when or where an emergency will occur, and such "landing areas" will, in fact, use up highly valuable land for no purpose., • We would urge you not to highlight "risk zones" or use them as a justification for meeting safety requirements alone. • We further request that establishment of Konen emergency landing areas" be strickeb " from the Airport Compatibility -Plan. AIRCRAFT NOISE • Aircraft noise cannot be eliminated. However, we believe. its mitigation is the responsibility of the Airport, the pilots, and the land use manager, which in this case is the City. • It is also probable that over time technology will substantially mitigate the aircraft noise problem. • We urge the City to create sound -attenuating design guidelines that would require tougher standards for insulating dwellings near the airport. • We urge that the City continue to work with pilots and Airport staff to develop rules of operation in and around the Airport that will mitigate noise. • We strongly suggest that the City sponsor a Part 150 Noise Program so that there is an accurate assessment of the source of noise. AIRSPACE PROTECTION • It is far more likely that any development around the Airport which is not strictly controlled will impact the Airport operation rather than vice -versa. • It is likely that businesses, especially medical and technical, will utilize the Airport for the shipment and receipt of goods. To restrict that potential would, in turn, restrict the maximum economic development of both the area being rezoned and the Airport. • We strongly support the designation of an "Airport Overlay Zone" that will allow the City to plan continually for future Airport operations. • Avagation Easements should be employed, but should include such things as "discomfort", "noise" and "nuisance" as well as Physical damage. ADDITIONAL COMMENTS: • One of the most aggressive recommendations and one that we support is an ordinance requiring disclosure -statements on all real estate transactions. The statement should include references to noise and Proximity to the Airport.. • While the current planning seeks to limit densities and occupancies within a thousand feet of the runway, we think there should be no residential development in District 2. Thank you again for allowing us to participate in this process. We look forward to a bright economic future for the City of Renton and its Airport. Sincerely, SOUTH COVE VENTURES LLC Charles E.

According to the accident report, the signals were operating correctly, the train's headlight was operating, and the train engineer was sounding the horn. Apparently the driver looked left and saw the Spirit of Washington Train at the station, but did not look right to see the BNSF engine approaching. The accident was considered minor and there were no serious injuries. • The City of Maple Valley is setting up a legislative consortium to be held at the River Rock Restaurant at the Maplewood Golf Course on December 3`d between 7:00 and 8:00 p.m. Attendees will be legislators and local elected officials with an interest in the SR 169 Corridor. Maple Valley has been in discussion with Renton regarding the Corridor, and would like the Legislature to include funding for a SR 169 Corridor Study in the 2004 legislative transportation budget.

Jesse Tanner, Mayor FROM: Gregg Zimmermal , Administrator STAFF CONTACT: Nick Afzali, x7245 SUBJECT: Improve Safety and Capacity on the SR 169 Corridor ISSUE: Significant growth has resulted in needed capacity and safety improvements to the SR 169 Corridor, also known as the Maple Valley Highway, which links the cities of Renton, Maple Valley, Black Diamond and Enumclaw. RECOMMENDATION: • Transportation Systems staff recommends Council approve the resolution to encourage the Washington State Legislature, the Washington State Department of Transportation, King County and affected jurisdictions to join in working together to improve safety and capacity on the SR 169 Corridor. BACKGROUND: In previous years, the Washington State Department of Transportation has proposed a corridor study of SR 169, but it has yet to be funded by the Legislature. A consortium of interested parties has been formed to ensure this vital corridor receives attention and funding. A resolution has been proposed to encourage funding of the SR 169 Corridor Study, and to reclassify the full length of SR 169 to be part of King County's regional arterial network. Corridor Study - Strongly urge WSDOT to perform a SR 169 Corridor Study and for state funding to be allocated to this study. County Reclassification - Strongly urge King County to reclassify all of SR 169 so that it is in the regional arterial network. DRAFT CITY OF RENTON, WASHINGTON RESOLUTION NO. A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY OF RENTON, WASHINGTON, ENCOURAGING THE WASHINGTON STATE LEGISLATURE, THE WASHINGTON STATE DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION, KING COUNTY AND AFFECTED JURISDICTIONS TO JOIN IN WORKING TO IMPROVE SAFETY AND CAPACITY ON THE SR-169 CORRIDOR. WHEREAS, SR-169 is an important transportation corridor for both commuters and commercial vehicles; linking the cities of Enumclaw, Black Diamond, Maple Valley, and Renton; and intersecting with SR-164, SR-516, SR-18, and I-405; and WHEREAS, significant growth has taken place recently along the SR-169 corridor and now there are parts of the highway that clearly need more capacity and safety improvements to catch up with this growth wave; and WHEREAS, significant future growth is still projected to come along this overburdened corridor, as it remains one of the areas with the greatest growth capacity in King County as defined by the Growth Management Act; and WHEREAS, there are significant safety issues on SR-169 for our youth, since several schools — with minimal sidewalk access — border the highway; and WHEREAS, there are frequent accidents and fatalities along some stretches of the road; and WHEREAS, the cities along the corridor each have already invested considerable funds to make improvements within their city boundaries to this State highway; and WHEREAS, substantial traffic delays take place along several choke points on the corridor, particularly in the unincorporated area between Renton and Maple Valley where SR-169 is reduced to just two lanes; and WHEREAS, the Washington State Department of Transportation in previous years has proposed to the Legislature that money be allocated to fund a corridor study of RESOLUTION NO. SR-169 but due to competing requests the Legislature has yet to allocate this needed funding; and WHEREAS, in order to ensure that this vital corridor receives attention and funding a consortium of interested parties has been formed consisting of the cities, chambers of commerce, and school districts along the SR-169 corridor; NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF RENTON, WASHINGTON, DO RESOLVE AS FOLLOWS: SECTION I. Corridor Study. The City of Renton strongly urges the Washington State Department of Transportation to carry out the previously proposed SR- 169 corridor study as quickly as possible. The Washington State Legislature and State Transportation Commission are encouraged to allocate funds and give their support for this important study to happen. The City of Renton will consider programming a fair share contribution to the SR 169 Corridor Study consistent with other jurisdictions along this corridor in the City's 2005-2010 Transportation Improvement Program. SECTION II. County Reclassification. Only part of SR-169 currently has the classification as being part of the county "regional arterial network". We strongly urge King County to reclassify the remaining portion of this highway so that it, too, is in the regional arterial network.
