1. APPROVAL OF AGENDA
COUNCILMEMBER WILSON MOVED, SECONDED BY COUNCIL PRESIDENT PRO TEM
PETERSON, TO APPROVE THE AGENDA IN CONTENT AND ORDER.
Councilmember Plunkett requested the Council consider removing Agenda Item 4, Public Hearing to
Seek Public Comment on a Proposed Change to a City Manager-Council Form of Government, noting the
agenda item should also state “and Potential Action.” He anticipated removing this agenda item would
save time because he did not plan to propose any action tonight or within the next few months. The public
would have an opportunity to speak to the issue during Audience Comments.
COUNCILMEMBER PLUNKETT MOVED, SECONDED BY COUNCILMEMBER BUCKSHNIS,
TO HAVE THE COUNCIL CONSIDER REMOVING ITEM 4 FROM THE AGENDA.
Mayor Pro Tem Bernheim agreed with removing this item from the agenda; if anyone wanted to comment
on this topic, they could do so under Audience Comments.
Councilmember Wilson objected to removing this agenda item, noting there were a number of people
attending tonight’s meeting specifically for that item. He suggested taking a vote and if the Council did
not want to place a measure on the ballot to change to a City-Manager form of government, he would
offer a resolution that the Council no longer consider this matter.
Councilmember Plunkett did not object to holding the public hearing or a Councilmember making a
motion regarding the topic. The intent of his suggestion to remove this item from the agenda was to save
the Council 30-60 minutes for public comment and Council discussion.

COUNCILMEMBER PLUNKETT WITHDREW HIS MOTION WITH THE AGREEMENT OF
THE SECOND.
MAYOR PRO TEM BERNHEIM MOVED, SECONDED BY COUNCILMEMBER FRALEY-
MONILLAS, TO REMOVE THE PUBLIC HEARING TO SEEK PUBLIC COMMENT ON A
PROPOSED CHANGE TO A CITY MANAGER-COUNCIL FORM OF GOVERNMENT FROM
THE AGENDA.
Council President Pro Tem Peterson commented there were many people present for that agenda item.
Regardless of whether the Council chose to move forward with a ballot measure, this was an opportunity
for a discussion. He did not support removing the item from the agenda, preferring to talk about it while
so many members of the public were present.
Councilmember Petso was satisfied with removing the item from the agenda as the public would have an
opportunity to speak to the topic under Audience Comments and it was unlikely the Council would take
action on that issue tonight.
Councilmember Wilson observed a motion for a resolution was in order at any time. For example, he
could propose a resolution following Audience Comments for the Council to oppose any further
discussion regarding a City Manager-Council form of government ballot measure. City Attorney Scott
Snyder explained such a motion would be in order under Roberts Rules of Order and the Open Public
Meetings Act.
Mayor Pro Tem Bernheim explained he supported the motion because he was not in favor of a ballot
measure to change the City’s form of government to a City Manager-Council structure. He did not favor
spending 30-60 minutes for the audience to explain why it was a bad idea when he agreed it was a bad
idea.
Councilmember Wilson suggested upon conclusion of this motion, the Council consider a motion to
express the Council’s intent to no longer discuss the issue.
UPON ROLL CALL MOTION CARRIED (5-2), MAYOR PRO TEM BERNHEIM AND
COUNCILMEMBERS PLUNKETT, BUCKSHNIS, FRALEY-MONILLAS, AND PETSO VOTING
YES AND COUNCILMEMBER WILSON AND COUNCIL PRESIDENT PRO TEM PETERSON

3. COMMUNITY SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT - EDMONDS FILM FESTIVAL INTERNATIONAL
Community Services/Economic Development Director Stephen Clifton introduced Trevor and Fred
Greenfield who were here to announce the Edmonds International Film Festival.
Trevor Greenfield explained he has been a film maker for about 10 years and his father, Fred, has been a
film maker for approximately 40 years. They started the Lake Dance International Film Festival in Sand
Point, Idaho, in 2006. It began as a 3-day event and grew within 4 years to 9 days and the largest film
festival in the inland northwest. Movie Maker Magazine called it one of the top 100 in the world. They
Packet Page 6 of 163
Edmonds City Council Draft Minutes
July 20, 2010
Page 4
outgrew Sand Point, Idaho, a town of 6,500 and were looking for another venue. Mr. Clifton had assisted
him several years ago when they visited the area to shoot a film and found shooting in Seattle and Everett
prohibitive. Mr. Clifton was very hospitable at that time and has assisted them greatly with the film
festival.
Mr. Greenfield explained their film festival was similar to the Seattle International Film Festival, a
celebration of independent films. They bring high quality, high entertainment, PG and G rated films. He
announced they are officially moving the Lake Dance Film Festival to Edmonds, the Edmonds
International Film Festival. The vision of the late Jack Mayo, who owned the Edmonds Theater, was to
connect the waterfront, downtown and Highway 99. They share his vision and want to have events spread
throughout the area. The goal will be to bring large film festival tourism and economic impact to the City.
Mr. Greenfield relayed research done by Movie Maker Magazine and Film Maker Magazine in the 1990s
on money spent by people attending film festivals from outside the area found the average was $150-$250
per person per day in addition to film festival tickets. Their goal is 1,000 attendees this year, 500 locally
and 500 from outside the area. They hoped to grow the film festival in future years and to use the
Edmonds Center for the Arts as well as other venues. He summarized this was a prototype year, the
growth curve for an event such as this was 3-5 years.
He announced their first sponsor and partner, the Best Western Edmonds Harbor Inn, has joined as their
lodging partner and will provide rooms for VIPs as well as visiting film makers, tourists, etc. He advised
further information was available via EdmondsFilmFestival.com. The Film Festival will take place
October 21 – 23.
Mr. Clifton commented October is a shoulder season and will bring people into the City in October rather
than during the summer months. He thanked Cultural Services Manager Frances Chapin and Chamber of
Commerce Executive Director Jan Vance for their assistance.
Councilmember Wilson expressed the community and the Council’s desire for the film festival to be a big
success. He expressed appreciation for their investment in the community and urged them to approach the
Council, Mr. Clifton and the merchants with any requests.
Councilmember Buckshnis commented she was acquainted with numerous volunteer groups and invited
him to contact her with any requests for volunteers.
4. PUBLIC HEARING TO SEEK PUBLIC COMMENT ON A PROPOSED CHANGE TO A CITY
MANAGER-COUNCIL FORM OF GOVERNMENT
This item was removed from the agenda under Agenda Item 1.
5. PUBLIC HEARING ON ADOPTION OF AN ORDINANCE PROHIBITING CERTAIN USES OF
POLYSTYRENE AND NON-RECYCLABLE MATERIALS AS DISPOSABLE FOOD
PACKAGING AND REQUIRING INSTEAD THE USE OF RECYCLABLE OR COMPOSTABLE
MATERIALS.
Mayor Pro Tem Bernheim explained this was a proposal to ban throw-away, non-recyclable food service
containers. The proposed effective date is March 2011. As the author of this proposal, he assured it was
not his intent to have that as a fixed date nor was it necessarily intended that the Council would take
action tonight. In order to reduce waste, trash and conserve energy and minimize the adverse impacts of
one-time, throw-away containers, the proposal would prohibit food services from selling food in non-
compostable or non-recyclable packaging. The proposal would require either compostable or recyclable
packaging.

Mayor Pro Tem Bernheim acknowledged issues have arisen in discussions such as what to do with
drinking straws, insulated wrap, and insulated cups. These issues and others will be addressed before the
Council passes an ordinance.
Council President Pro Tem Peterson explained Mayor Pro Tem Bernheim and he met with representatives
from the restaurant industry as well as discussed the issue with representatives of the City of Seattle who
passed a similar measure a year ago. They are taking proactive measures to ensure this is a positive step
for the environment as well as for businesses and the community. He assured the intent was not draconian
tactics that hurt small businesses; the intent was to work as closely as possible with small businesses to
make sure the City was doing the right thing.
Mayor Pro Tem Bernheim opened the public participation portion of the public hearing.
Josh McDonald, Washington Restaurant Association, explained he was speaking on behalf of the
Association members in the greater Edmonds area as well as other small businesses impacted by the
proposal. He worked on a similar ordinance in Seattle and Issaquah for the past 3 years; it took
approximately 2½ years in Seattle to develop the ordinance. He explained the proposed ban has a
tremendous impact on restaurants who often purchase large quantities of polystyrene packages. As one of
Edmonds’ largest employers, the restaurant community prides itself in being as sustainable as possible
and observes many best practices such as energy and water conservation. He referred to a written
statement he provided to Councilmembers and invited their feedback. He posed several
questions/concerns:
• What is the City’s current recycling capacity and current ability to collect compost? Cedar Grove
is the only composting facility in the region. The City must discuss the impacts of this ban with
them.
• Does the City have the resources to provide help to hundreds of businesses? They spent two years
in Seattle assisting restaurants.
• How will this impact small businesses? This is an increased financial burden; how will that be
offset? How will businesses be helped through this transition?
• What stakeholders have yet to be brought to the process? There are many that need to be included
in discussions including grocers and Cedar Grove.
• The proposed definition of compostable is not consistent with Seattle or Issaquah’s definition or
national standards.
• Section 6.90.040 regarding the requirement to enroll in commercial food waste or recycling
service or have containers – 90% of restaurants are tenants and have no control over the services
they are allowed.
• The language in Section 6.90.040.B regarding all food service businesses are prohibited from
emptying or disposing of items in recycling or compost containers is confusing.
• The effective date of the chapter is too aggressive.
Holly Chisa, Northwest Grocery Association, explained the grocery community is the single largest
provider source for Cedar Grove; whatever grocers are unable to donate to a food bank is composted. She
commented on the difference between items on the grocery store shelf versus the deli and appreciated
Mayor Pro Tem Bernheim’s intent to work with them and interest in a flexible timeline. She agreed the
timeline was very aggressive, noting they are still working to be compliant with Seattle. They are still
learning a lot and the more time they have to get through the Seattle process, the more they can bring to
Edmonds. She expressed appreciation for the temporary exemption for meat trays and requested the
exemption be permanent until a long term solution was found. The most common recyclable meat trays
are paper or corn and sugar based. The paper meat trays bleed and create a Health Department issue. Meat
should not be placed on a food-based tray such as the corn or sugar based trays due to contamination and

bleeding. She offered to continue to work with the City and urged the City to talk with Cedar Grove to
ensure there was not an expectation without a way to comply.
Hearing no further comment, Mayor Pro Tem Bernheim closed the public participation portion of the
public hearing.
Councilmember Fraley-Monillas asked what type of meat trays were being used in Seattle. Ms. Chisa
responded it depended on the retailer; some were using a cardboard hybrid. The reason the industry
switched to Styrofoam was the bleeding issue. More layers must be used to keep the cardboard meat trays
from bleeding which is counter to reducing waste. Some retailers have found compostable meat trays but
the biohazard issues have yet to be resolved. Another issue is the stability of the bigger trays. They are
also testing PET, another recyclable product.
Mayor Pro Tem Bernheim reiterated he intended to look into the issues that have been raised as well as
investigate the capacity of the Cedar Grove facility. He planned to return this issue to the Council in the
future for further consideration.
Councilmember Fraley-Monillas pointed out the ban on plastic bags would take effect soon. She
recommended a year for implementation of a ban on polystyrene and other non-recyclable food
containers, finding a year a reasonable period of time for businesses to use up existing supplies.
Council President Pro Tem Peterson commented that living in the Northwest where cities like Seattle are
taking the lead on issues such as a Styrofoam ban, he assumed other cities in the country were
undertaking a similar effort. However, Mr. McDonald informed him there were few other cities involved.
Because few communities are involved, the cost of alternative products is still high. He suggested as
Councilmembers speak with Councilmembers in other cities, they encourage them to consider a similar
ban. Involving more cities will alleviate the economic impacts as well as be beneficial to the environment.
He thanked the Restaurant Association and the Grocery Association for being involved as engaged
partners. Edmonds’ legislation could be better by avoiding the mistakes made by Seattle and Issaquah.
Councilmember Wilson recalled when operating restaurants in the past it was very expensive to upgrade
to compostable or recyclable materials. He requested information regarding the difference in price.
Councilmember Buckshnis advised Jeannie Blair, Rich Senderoff and Rebecca Wolfe have developed an
incentive-based program which includes not using Styrofoam. She suggested incorporating their program
into the ban.
Councilmember Fraley-Monillas commented while visiting a historic city on the East Coast recently, she
found few garbage or recycle containers. Instead people throw trash in the street and a large street
sweeper sweeps up the garbage at night. She preferred Edmonds’ model to that model.
Council President Pro Tem Peterson commented staff conducted a SEPA review and the appeal period
ended today. He thanked staff for ensuring the process was done correctly.
6. AUDIENCE COMMENTS
Norma Bruns, Edmonds, was disappointed the Council removed the public hearing regarding a
proposed change to a City Manager-Council form of government from the agenda, remarking it would
have been a good opportunity to take public comment regarding that topic. She commented other than
Mayor Pro Tem Bernheim’s opinion tonight and articles in the Edmonds Beacon regarding the Chamber
of Commerce’s position against a City Manager-Council form of government, there had been little
opportunity for comment. She served on a committee over 20 years ago that studied that form of
Packet Page 9 of 163
Edmonds City Council Draft Minutes
July 20, 2010
Page 7
government. She supported the City Manager-Council form of government, finding it provided the best
example of separation of power in the City. Citizens vote for the people who established policy. She was
surprised at the comments against the City Manager-Council form of government due to the Council’s
inexperience, pointing out the possibility of an inexperienced mayor. Over 75 million people in the
United States are governed by this form of government; it is not a new, radical idea. She urged the
Council to consider a City Manager-Council form of government, commenting it would be good for
Edmonds and would provide stability.
Betty Larman, Edmonds, displayed photographs of vacant storefronts and houses, commenting in spite
of wonderful murals and beautiful flowers at every corner, there are many vacant storefronts, unkempt
empty lots and unfinished buildings that are unsightly and unregulated for long periods of time. She
suggested after a store remained vacant for a period of time, the store owner have the choice of allowing
works of art to be displayed in the empty storefront windows or assessed a monthly fine for being a public
nuisance. Windows of vacant stores could also be used to showcase goods of neighboring stores.
Unfinished buildings should be required to be landscaped even minimally. Empty lots should be tended or
planted as community gardens or the owner assessed a monthly fine. She also expressed concern with the
condition of empty houses on Edmonds Way purchased by a developer for future development and now
abandoned and overrun by weeds and vermin. She suggested employees in Development Services whose
workloads have been diminished by the economic downturn assist Code Enforcement. She urged the
Council to consider her suggestions as soon as possible for the sake of economic development.
Rowena Miller, Edmonds, submitted a letter signed by 14 Edmonds voters expressing their support for
the City Manager-Council form of government for Edmonds. With a City Manager-Council form of
government, the Council majority could appoint a well qualified, trained, professional to manage City
administration, a person not concerned with running a future campaign nor beholden to any special
interest, a person who would serve all citizens. The Council currently selects a Council President among
its members; that person would assume the title of Mayor and carry out City ceremonial duties. The City
Manager-Council form of government reduces political pressure, results in efficient, smooth Council-staff
relationships since the Council could ask for information from staff but not interfere in administrative
affairs. The Council would be free to create policy and legislation. A professional trained in public
administration is especially important because the current Council includes only two experienced
members. The City Council would continue to be responsible for setting policy and be accountable to
citizens. The appointed City Manager could be fired at any time by a majority of the Council. This system
works well for the Port District, Water District, Public Utility District, Hospital District and School
District and other entities where elected officials utilize professional administrators. She urged the City
Council to place the City Manager-Council form of government on the November ballot.
Ron Clyborne, Edmonds, representing the Edmonds Chamber of Commerce Executive Board and the
Board of Directors who unanimously oppose any change in City governance at this time. He posed
several questions/comments:
• Should Edmonds change its form of government?
• What is wrong with the current system?
• Can the proponents of the City Manager-Council form of government provide clear, objective and
convincing rationale for making a change of this magnitude?
• Why make a change when there has been no evidence from the electorate that a mayoral structure
is not effective for Edmonds? Edmonds has an engage electorate. The Mayor is answers directly
to the voters; a City Manager answers only to the City Council
• Why a radical change in governance when the City is facing a severe budgetary challenge? City
staff has already made many drastic cuts in expenses. Absent new sources of revenue, the next
step will either be major cuts in service or a $3 million levy.
Packet Page 10 of 163
Edmonds City Council Draft Minutes
July 20, 2010
Page 8
• Are the citizens willing to take the risk an inexperienced Council provide direction to a newly
appointed City Manager? Two Councilmembers were recently appointed, two were recently
elected for the first time, two others serving their first term and only one has served more than
one term.
He summarized the Edmonds Chamber of Commerce believes a governance change at this juncture is
unwise as it could cause political and economic instability, nether of which is needed by Edmonds.
Rick Jenness, Edmonds, expressed his support for placing the City Manager-Council form of
government on the ballot. Although he was unsure which form he supported, his professional experience
has found Manager-Council is a more efficient way to operate a city, particularly smaller cities. The
bigger question for Edmonds is the looming budget shortfall and the Council’s decision whether to place
a $3 million levy on the February ballot. He feared by not placing the City Manager-Council form of
government on the ballot, citizens would be enraged and would not support the levy. The Council’s non-
decision was placing the City at enormous financial risk.
Brian Larman, Edmonds, pointed out none of the mayoral candidates had experience as a mayor. He
commented that until recently, elected mayors could manage the City with little formal business
education; Edmonds now has a population of over 40,000 and in this volatile economy, Edmonds needs
and deserves a trained professional in city management. Edmonds staff and citizens deserve to be led by a
City Manager with a public administration degree or who has proven his/her capabilities on the job. A
strong mayor form of government has the tendency to polarize people. A strong mayor fills all the
volunteer boards and hires only people who follow his doctrine and share his views. The end result may
deter new ideas and visions. With a strong mayor, the City Council and Chamber of Commerce are so
busy quarreling for power that nothing gets done. A competent City Manager would be mandated to be
apolitical and would move Edmonds forward. He summarized this system worked very successfully in
Mukilteo and suggested Mukilteo’s Mayor and City Manager be invited to speak to the Council before a
vote is taken.
Ernie Daville, Edmonds, voiced his opposition to the City Manager-Council form of government,
pointing out the City needs an elected mayor because it needs leadership not management. He anticipated
a city Edmonds’ size would attract a City Manager looking to trade up to the next job versus a Mayor who
lives in the City and is vested in the City’s interest and can provide leadership. He preferred to have a
Mayor with a passion for the City who could lead and move the City forward.
Natalie Shippen, Edmonds, hoped the City Manager-Council form of government would be on the
ballot so that she could vote for a change that is badly needed. She compared four local governments and
how they have performed during the recession:
• Bothell (City Manager) – the Seattle Times stated Bothell has a visionary plan with top notch
project, part of a $150 million development program. To institute it, they purchased an 18-acre
downtown school site for $21 million and paid for the property primary with cash saved from one
time revenues. This year Bothell sold 5.5 acres for $7 million to an Oregon-based company, $2
million in cash and the rest in community benefits including opening a closed pool and giving
residents free use for 15 years.
• Mountlake Terrace (City Manager) – this year they plan to put a $37.5 million bond measure on
the ballot to construct a new civic campus.
• Lynnwood (Mayor) – $5 million operating deficit and their Finance Director recently resigned.
• Edmonds (Mayor) – plans to place a $3 million operating levy on the November ballot to
maintain basic services and the Mayor resigned.
In response to the suggestion not to fix what is not broken, she pointed out the city’s governance was
broken when a city Edmonds’ size was struggling. She also anticipated a City Manager-Council form of
government would provide a larger pool of candidates. She suggested the City try the City Manager-
Packet Page 11 of 163
Edmonds City Council Draft Minutes
July 20, 2010
Page 9
Council form of government, noting it could return to a Mayor-Council if the City Manager form it did
not work out.
Chris Fleck, Edmonds, recalled the issue of a City Manager-Council versus a Mayor-Council form of
government began because Councilmember Plunkett announced he wanted to have a City Manager. He
later changed his mind and then changed his mind again. He questioned why the City Manager-Council
form of government had not come up before if it was such a great idea. He summarized the City’s
governance was not broken and did not need to be fixed. To Mr. Larman’s comment that quarrels
between the City Council and Chamber kept things from getting done, he assured the Chamber was not
that powerful.
Jim Cutts, Edmonds, a Community Development Director in several cities for 39 years, found cities
with a City Manager-Council form of government very functional because they work well with the
Council and staff. He worked in one city with a strong Mayor form of government that was totally
dysfunctional. He summarized the voters should have the right to make the determination by the Council
placing the matter on the ballot.
Dave Page, Edmonds, commented he served on the committee referred to by Ms. Bruns that considered
the City Manager-Council form of government during Mayor Laura Hall’s term. He suggested the issue
of a City Manager-Council form of government needed further study. The most important issue is for this
City Council to bond. That new beginning will determine how citizens vote in the next 5-10 years. When
he served on the committee that studied the City Manager-Council form of government, there were 101
City employees. The City has a number of big decisions to make but has polarized to the point it is not
attracting economic development. He suggested the Council form a committee to study a City Manager-
Council form of government. He also wanted to hear each Councilmember’s opinion with regard to the
City Manager-Council form of government. He anticipated a levy could be passed if the need was
explained to the voters.
Al Rutledge, Edmonds, commented when he ran for Council in 2005 against Deanna Dawson, he
supported a City Manager-Council form of government as well as establishing districts. Next, he recalled
several years ago the Mountlake Terrace Council fired their City Manager and it took several years to
recover. With regard to inexperienced Councilmembers, he pointed out every Councilmember but one has
run for election and lost at one time. He announced Christmas in July at Top Foods where volunteers will
be collecting unwrapped toys July 23-25 to be distributed to children during the holidays.
Todd Cloutier, Edmonds, referred to the email he sent to Councilmembers. He acknowledged the City
Manager-Council versus strong Mayor form of government was a long discussion and he was not yet
ready to take a position. He noted each side could agree there was not a perfect system and he cited the
worst case scenario: Mayor – Lynnwood, City Manager – Shoreline. He summarized it was not the
system that made the city; it was the people who made the city. He urged the Council to take their time
and select a good Mayor tonight; that was the most important decision in the short term. He was
concerned that the Council was discussing the City’s form of government now, taking their eye off the
ball when there were more important issues that the Council should focus on. He urged the Council to
dispatch of the City Manager-Council form of government issue swiftly or if it required a longer
discussion, establish a timeline for a decision so that the Council could return to discussing more
important matters.
Mike Burdett, Edmonds, agreed with Mr. Cloutier that it was the people, not the system, that makes a
city. He was concerned that the Council was discussing this issue now when the City was facing a $2.5
million deficit. He expressed concern with the vision for the City voiced by Councilmembers after their
retreat; one said they wanted it to be the bird watching capital of Washington State; one said they wanted
it to be an ecofriendly city that was light on tourism; one said no tall buildings; and another said they did

not have a vision. Bothell’s vision will create 600 jobs and $2.2 million in revenue compared to Edmonds
that has an empty waterfront, an empty building on 3rd & Dayton, an empty building in Old Mill Town,
the old Edmonds-Woodway High School continues to decay, the stadium at civic fields is falling down,
and a wharf is falling into the water. He anticipated if the Council told the citizens their vision for the
City, the citizens would pass a levy; until they knew the Council’s vision, a levy was unlikely to pass.
Mayor Pro Tem Bernheim declared a brief recess.
7. APPOINTMENT TO FILL THE VACANT POSITION OF MAYOR
Mayor Pro Tem Bernheim explained the rules for appointing the Mayor are the same as for appointing a
Councilmember, each Councilmember nominates a candidate of his/her choice and the Council votes on
those candidates until a four vote majority is obtained. He invited Councilmembers to make any
preliminary comments.
Councilmember Petso apologized to citizens who had emailed her on the City email account; she had
difficulty accessing the account but read all emails by 4:00 p.m. today. With regard to disclosures, she
served with Richard Marin on the Council and may have appointed him to the Council; she ran against
Ron Wambolt and spoke with him by phone today; she had heard she should not nominate Mike Cooper
because it would make it look like everything “they” say is true; she has worked with Dick Van
Hollebeke on a few City issues; she had heard she should not nominate Roger Hertrich because it would
make it look like everything “they” say is true; and her daughter used to work for Frank Yamamoto.
Councilmember Buckshnis commented because she was in New York and Charlotte last week, she was
unaware of what “they” had said. She expressed her appreciation for the input citizens had provided.
Councilmember Wilson commented Mike Cooper opposed him two of the three times he ran for office;
Richard Marin supported him in his last campaign and he supported him and made a contribution to his
campaign; Dick Van Hollebeke contributed to his campaign; Ron Wambolt contributed to his campaign
and he supported him in his campaign.
Council President Pro Tem Peterson reported he had been supported financially in the past election by
Frank Yamamoto, Ron Wambolt and Dick Van Hollebeke. He thanked everyone who applied, noting he
would be comfortable with any number of people on the list of candidates serving as Mayor and leading
the City. He thanked the citizens for attending tonight to learn who the Council selects as the next Mayor.
He summarized in his selection for Mayor he was seeking leadership.
Councilmember Plunkett commented he was satisfied with the list of candidates and there were any
number of people he could support as Mayor. He was certain the selection of a new Mayor would result in
moving Edmonds forward.
Councilmember Fraley-Monillas commented she knew six of the eight candidates, a couple quite well.
She was looking for individuals with history, involvement in the City, ability to bring the Council
together as a team, ability to bring the staff together as a team, and to bring the City forward during this
economic crisis. She advised Crystal Cooper contributed to her campaign but Mike Cooper did not.
Mayor Pro Tem Bernheim commented every one of the candidates could do the job regardless of
experience. He would be happy with any one of the candidates. The next 18 months depend not only on
how the new Mayor interacts with the Council but also on the voters and citizens. He looked forward to a
productive relationship. He planned to vote for the person he felt could do the best job of bringing the
City together.

City Clerk Sandy Chase distributed the first nomination ballot to Councilmembers. Those nominated
were: Mike Cooper (Councilmembers Fraley-Monillas, Peterson, Wilson and Petso) and Dick Van
Hollebeke (Councilmembers Plunkett and Buckshnis and Mayor Pro Tem Bernheim).
Vote No. 1 was taken. The results were: four votes for Mike Cooper (Councilmembers Wilson, Petso,
Peterson and Fraley-Monillas) and three votes for Dick Van Hollebeke (Councilmembers Buckshnis and
Plunkett and Mayor Pro Tem Bernheim).
Receiving four votes, Mike Cooper was appointed as Mayor.
Councilmember Wilson commented the Mayor-elect cannot be sworn in until he officially resigns from
his current elected office at Snohomish County. City Attorney Scott Snyder agreed the Doctrine of
Incompatibility of Offices prevents an individual from simultaneously holding two offices of this type. In
order to accept the position as Mayor of Edmonds, Mayor-elect Cooper will need to resign from the
Snohomish County Council.
Mayor-elect Cooper congratulated all the candidates who applied for the mayor position. Watching the
interviews, he knew it would be a difficult choice for the Council. He congratulated Dick Van Hollebeke
for his showing. He planned to resign his seat on the Snohomish County Council tomorrow and would
contact Snohomish County Council Chair Gossett tonight to inform him that he would be resigning. He
requested to take the oath of office on Friday afternoon because he would like to have Judge Stephen
Dwyer administer the oath. However, if the Council preferred, he could be sworn in tomorrow.
Mayor-elect Cooper commented it would be a great honor to serve as mayor of a City his family moved
to when he was 12 years old when his father was hired as the first full-time, paid Fire Chief for Edmonds
in 1965. He looked forward to working with the Council with their diverse interests and qualifications. He
thanked his wife Crystal and his family for their support. He planned to visit City Hall tomorrow
morning. He thanked the Council for their support; he looked forward to getting down to business and
getting the City moving forward again.
Councilmember Wilson requested City Clerk Sandy Chase provide a notice of the swearing in ceremony
as a meeting in the event more than four Councilmembers attend.
8. MAYOR'S COMMENTS
None.
9. COUNCIL COMMENTS
Councilmember Fraley-Monillas explained the Council removing the public hearing regarding the
proposed change to a City Manager-Council form of government from the agenda did not mean it was not
a valuable discussion. She was hopeful the new Mayor would be interested in continuing discussions
regarding a strong Mayor versus a City Manager-Council form of government. She appreciated the
audience’s comments with regard to a City Manager-Council form of government.
With regard to Ms. Larman’s comments, Councilmember Fraley-Monillas asked whether the City had
codes related to unkempt properties/buildings. City Attorney Scott Snyder answered the City has nuisance
ordinances; none of Ms. Larman’s photographs illustrated a situation that would violate the City’s
existing code provisions. Councilmember Fraley-Monillas asked whether the houses on Edmonds Way
met the City’s code. Mr. Snyder answered yes, as currently written. Councilmember Fraley-Monillas
asked whether there were any codes that addressed the appearance of vacant stores. Mr. Snyder offered to
Packet Page 14 of 163
Edmonds City Council Draft Minutes
July 20, 2010
Page 12
confer with Code Enforcement Officer Mike Thies, noting Ms. Larman’s suggestion was for the City to
expand its regulations.
Councilmember Plunkett congratulated Mayor-elect Cooper. With regard to the City Manager-Council
form of government, he agreed he has been indecisive with regard to that issue. A Councilmember may
be accused of being indecisive if they take their time, listen to the people and try to respond to what is
said. If he had been stubborn about it and charged ahead, he likely would have been accused of not
listening. If it was his decision, a City Manager-Council form of government would be on the November
ballot. However, he did not believe the Council wanted to address that issue this year. He anticipated it
would be on the ballot sometime next year so the citizens of Edmonds could make the decision.
Council President Pro Tem Peterson reported he contacted the City’s Code Enforcement Officer
regarding the properties on Edmonds Way. At the time they had been foreclosed and were under
receivership by Fannie Mae and attempts to contact the owner were unsuccessful. The properties have
since been purchased and hopefully will be cleaned up. He expressed support for several of Ms. Larman’s
other ideas.
Council President Pro Tem Peterson congratulated Mayor-elect Cooper, commenting he will bring much
needed skills to the City. His knowledge of the Legislature and Snohomish County will serve the City
well.
Council President Pro Tem Peterson commented the Edmonds Film Festival is evidence of the hard work
being done by the City’s Economic Development Department and throughout the City. He recognized Mr.
Clifton, the Chamber of Commerce and the Mayor for their efforts to make the Film Festival a reality.
Councilmember Wilson congratulated and welcomed Mayor-elect Cooper. In response to the comment
made during Audience Comments that Mukilteo has a City Manager-Council form of government,
Councilmember Wilson clarified they do not; Mukilteo has a City Administrator. He explained in some
cities with a strong Mayor form of government such as Mukilteo, the Mayor hires a City Administrator.
He agreed checks and balances were important, however, he did not feel a City Manager was an effective
check on a Council that hires that person. An effective check on the Council was a strong Mayor.
Similarly he did not believe a City Manager appointed by a majority of the City Council was more
responsive and accountable to the people than an elected Mayor. He considered presenting a resolution
tonight because he does not feel it is an appropriate discussion for the Council at this time in light of more
pressing issues but did not want to add contentiousness to the issue. Although he preferred not to continue
talking about a change to a City Manager-Council form of government, he could support the Council
continuing their research on the matter. He suggested the Council bring the issue to a conclusion at some
point. He assured the audience that the Council was trying to get along better and urged the public to do
the same.
Councilmember Buckshnis welcomed Mayor-elect Cooper and looked forward to working with him,
especially on the levy committee. Councilmember Buckshnis said her vision for the City was to become
the bird watching capital because a clean marsh was one of her priorities. She discontinued her research
on the City Manager-Council form of government to focus on the levy. The levy committee will be
considering a number of issues including capital planning, bond financing, and General Fund
augmentation. She supported the City moving forward and suggested the $3 million figure for a levy not
be cited because that may not be the amount; it may be more or less. The most important task is to obtain
current and accurate financials. The first levy committee meeting will be on July 29.
Councilmember Buckshnis reported the TGIF Town Hall meetings will not be held again until the fall.

Councilmember Petso announced she selected Jessie Beyer for the levy committee. She reported on the
WRIA 8 meeting, advising there was potential for grants particularly for the marsh project and any
project that was beneficial to Lake Ballinger. She expressed her appreciation for the appointment as
alternate to WRIA 8. She welcomed Mayor-elect Cooper.
Mayor Pro Tem Bernheim congratulated Mayor-elect Cooper, commenting he was the candidate he
supported most enthusiastically in spite of voting against. He looked forward to working with Mayor-
elect Cooper during the next 18 months. The responsibility for the community is ultimately not the
Mayor’s or the Council’s, it is the residents’ responsibility. He was hopeful the City’s residents would
support the Mayor and Council in their efforts to do the right thing.

Quarterly Report – July, 2010
As requested by the City Council, this report provides an update on major projects currently
worked on by staff of the Community Services and Economic Development Departments.
Community Services
I. EDMONDS CROSSING
Project Description
Edmonds Crossing is a regional project intended to provide a long-term solution to current
operational and safety conflicts between ferry, rail, automobile, bus, and pedestrian traffic in
downtown Edmonds and along State Route 104. The Federal Highway Administration
(FHWA), Federal Transit Administration (FTA), Washington State Department of
Transportation (WSDOT) (including Washington State Ferries [WSF]), and City of Edmonds
propose to relocate the existing state ferry terminal from Main Street, in downtown
Edmonds, to Pt. Edwards, south of the downtown core. In the process, a multimodal center
would be established that would integrate ferry, rail, and transit services into a single
complex. A realigned SR 104 from its current intersection with Pine Street would provide
access. The new complex would provide an upgraded ferry terminal designed to meet the
operational requirements for accommodating forecast ferry ridership demand; a new rail
station designed to meet intercity passenger (Amtrak) and commuter rail (Sounder) service;
a transit center that would meet local bus system and regional transit system loading
requirements; facilities that allow both vehicular commuters and walk-on passengers to
utilize various transportation modes; parking, drop-off areas, retail/ concessionaire space,
waiting areas; and a system linking these facilities to allow for the safe movement of users.

Significant Activities Since April 22, 2010
• April, May, June and July 2010 – WSF staff continue to explore minimum build
alternatives/options for Edmonds ferry improvements.
• July 12, 2010 – See meeting with Representatives Rolfes and Liias under Items of
Interest section titled Washington State Ferries.
II. SOUND TRANSIT (PHASE 1, AKA SOUND MOVE)
Project Description
During the past few years, Sound Transit has been implementing what is called the Sound
Move Plan. One element calls for commuter rail services, otherwise known as Sounder.
Commuter rail will eventually link Everett in the north with Seattle, Tacoma and Lakewood in
the South, a total of 82 miles through three counties. Sounder is being implemented in
three phases, one of which includes Everett to Seattle or the North Commuter Rail corridor.
Three commuter rail stations exist along this corridor, i.e., Everett, Mukilteo and Edmonds.
Everett-Seattle Sounder, at full operation, now calls for 8 trains per day, i.e., four round
trips, and will include reverse trips. This is a reduction of two round trips from the originally
proposed operational plan. Initial service will be phased in. The first roundtrip train run
began in December, 2003.
Edmonds Station is currently located between Main and Dayton Streets along both sides of
the Burlington Northern Santa Fe (BNSF) tracks. The station area is also co-located with
Amtrak’s Edmonds Passenger Station. The Sounder commuter rail station, once completed
will include ADA accessible rail platforms, shelters, signage, lighting fixtures, hanging flower
baskets, ticket vending machines, on-site parking, and Community Transit bus station.
In an attempt to environmental enhance Willow Creek and Edmonds Marsh, a culvert will be
installed near the Marina Beach property beneath both BNSF Railroad tracks, concurrent with
the construction of a second BNSF rail line. This will allow for the eventual daylighting of
Willow Creek, if funding is available.
Significant Activities since April 22, 2010
• July 20, 2010 – Sound Transit conducted pre-application meeting for Edmonds Commuter
Rail Station at the City of Edmonds. According to Sound Transit, construction will
commence in mid August with completion of the station scheduled for June 6, 2011
(includes a 30 day close out period).
III. SOUND TRANSIT 2
Expanding the regional mass transit system
On Nov. 4, 2008, voters of the Central Puget Sound region approved a Sound Transit 2
ballot measure. The plan adds regional express bus and commuter rail service while building
36 additional miles of light rail to form a 55-mile regional system. For additional information,

Significant Activities Since April 22, 2010
• June 24, 2010 – I attended a Sound Transit North Link Policy Advisory Committee (PAC)
meeting at Mountlake Terrace. The PAC is providing and coordinating higher-level
policy perspective and guidance for the Sound Transit North Link light rail project.
Discussions relate to alignment, number of stations, land use objectives, etc.
IV. UNOCAL AKA CHEVRON SITE CLEANUP
Project Description
The UNOCAL property currently consists of a lower yard which currently contains petroleum
contamination resulting from more than 60 years of operation. Chevron, which acquired
UNOCAL, is now the entity responsible for cleaning up the site. Cleanup work at the lower
yard, which began in 2007, is a continuation of remediation work that has been ongoing at
the site since 2001. Chevron conducted the following work from summer 2007 through fall
2008:
• Excavated soil with metals contamination exceeding Washington State Department of
Ecology standards in order to protect against direct contact with the soil (such as
ingestion) and impacts to the groundwater.
• Excavated soil with petroleum contamination exceeding safe levels for direct contact.
Excavation of this soil was for protection of groundwater and surface water.
• Excavated contaminated sediment in Willow Creek, on the northern edge of the site.
The primary excavation work at the lower yard (including the Willow Creek area) was
complete by September 2008. Over 140,000 tons of contaminated soil and 9,000 gallons of
petroleum product have been removed from the site. The lower yard site has been re-
graded and reseeded. The Willow Creek area has been re-planted with native vegetation.
Significant Activities since April 22, 2010
• April, May, June and July, 2010 – Monitoring of the site continues.
V. EDMONDS PUBLIC FACILITIES DISTRICT
Overview
The City Council, pursuant to state law, approved the formation of the Public Facilities
District (PFD) at its April 24, 2001 meeting. A PFD is a separate municipal corporation that
has authority to undertake the design, construction, operation, promotion and financing of a
Regional Center in the city. The Public Facilities District board consists of five members
originally appointed by the City Council on June 19, 2001. Phase 1A renovation of the
original Edmonds High School Auditorium into a first class Edmonds Center for the Arts
(ECA) and multipurpose facility was completed in September of 2006.
Significant Activities Since April 22, 2010
• July 1, 2010 – Edmonds Center for the Arts announced its performance schedule for the
upcoming 2010-2011 season. For information, see http://ec4arts.org/index

VI. SNOHOMISH COUNTY PAINE FIELD
Overview
On July 14, 2004, a Mead & Hunt Inc. Business Travel Survey was issued which focused on
the market potential and options for Paine Field. On August 20, 2004, a Snohomish County
Citizen Cabinet issued an Economic Development Final Report -Blueprint for the Economic
Future of Snohomish County. Both reports put Paine Field in the regional spotlight as they
highlight the possibility of using Paine Field for commercial aircraft operations, thus changing
its general aviation status
.
Although Snohomish County Executive Aaron Reardon and some County Council members
have said they do not support commercial air service at Paine Field, federal law obligates the
county to accommodate commercial service. Federal law does not allow the county to
prohibit or limit scheduled passenger air service. Instead, it requires that the county
negotiate with the airlines in good faith to accommodate their proposed service.
Horizon Airlines has indicated it wants to operate four times a day to Portland and twice per
day to Spokane, using 75-seat Bombardier Q400 turboprop airplanes on both routes.
Allegiant has said it plans to operate twice a week to Las Vegas, using 150-seat MD83 jet
aircraft.
Before airlines may begin commercial service, the FAA must amend the county’s operating
certificate for Paine Field as well as the airlines’ operating specifications. The county was
required to prepare an environmental assessment for FAA approval before those
amendments can occur.
Key points of the draft environmental assessment include:
1. Considering all current aircraft operations (take offs and landings) at Paine Field.
2. Traffic mitigation.
3. Emissions affecting air quality.
The draft environmental assessment is available for review at the airport office, on the Paine
Field Web site http://www.painefield.com/airserviceea.html, at
www.snoco.org/departments/airport and also in local public libraries.
The public now has the opportunity to review and comment on the draft environmental
assessment before a final determination is made by the FAA. Comments may be submitted
by email to cayla.morgan@faa.gov or airserviceeacomments@snoco.org. The public
comment period was extended until Feb. 5, 2010.
Significant Activities Since April 22, 2010
• April, May, June and July, 2010 – No new information. We are waiting for the Federal
Aviation Administration to release the final environmental assessment report.

VII. RAILROAD QUIET ZONE
Overview
As discussed on a few occasions, there is an expressed desire of the City Council and Port of
Edmonds to establish a full or partial quite zone along the City's shoreline. A quiet zone is a
section of rail line that contains one or more consecutive public crossings at which
locomotive horns are not routinely sounded.
Significant Activities Since April 22, 2010
• June 29, 2010 – Following ongoing communication with Toth Industries about the
possibility and feasibility of implementing a partial or full quiet zone, Toth Industries
conducted a wayside horn demonstration test at Main and Dayton Streets where each
intersects with the BNSF rail line. Verbal feedback, from those who participated in the
test, seems to indicate that the system provides a realistic horn sound, the warning is
concentrated at the railroad intersection, and a trackside system could help reduce the
noise impact of an approaching train along much of the Edmonds waterfront and
community. A fully operational system would require acceptance by BNSF which would
determine whether a trackside system can be integrated with the existing BNSF
infrastructure. Additional information will be provided based on future discussions with
Toth Iindustries.
VIII. CITY OF EDMONDS / COMCAST FRANCHISE AGREEMENT
Overview
On July 14, 2008, the City of Edmonds received a letter dated October 22, 2008 from Stan
Finley, Comcast Director of Franchising and Government Affairs (Exhibit 2) regarding
renewal of the existing franchise agreement. While Comcast is asking to reach a mutually
satisfactorily agreement through an informal negotiation process pursuant to Section 626 of
the 1984 Cable Act, the second paragraph of the Comcast letter also states “to preserve our
statutory rights to this formal procedure, this letter is our official notice to you invoking that
provision.”
With a record of successfully negotiating Verizon franchise agreements, several members of
the North Puget Sound Consortium wish to form a new Consortium for the purposes of
negotiating franchise agreements with Comcast. Jurisdictions which have been invited to
participate include: Snohomish County, the Cities of Bothell, Carnation, Edmonds, Kenmore,
Lake Forest Park, Mercer Island, Shoreline, Woodinville, and the Town of Woodway.
Benefits of a coordinated effort include: ensuring that the public receives the maximum
rights and benefits from their respective franchise agreements; better coordination of
negotiations with Comcast; sharing the costs of negotiations including hiring a national
consultant and attorneys to assure the citizens of each jurisdiction that their franchise is
competitive, both locally and nationally; and creating a common template and negotiation
strategy through the assistance of a national consultant and attorneys to maximize leverage
during the negotiations.

Significant Activities Since April 22, 2010
• April, May, June and July, 2010 – The North Puget Sound Consortium representatives
continue to work on a draft franchise agreement template. Ogden Murphy Wallace has
a Comcast template which they will be reviewing with their clients such as the City of
Edmonds. I will also be discussing with Ogden Murphy Wallace whether the City will
need to utilize River Oaks Communications to help tailor the Comcast Franchise to the
needs of Edmonds. A more narrowly focused review by me and the City Attorney of the
draft template will begin in August and/or September of this year.
IX. FRONTIER COMMUNICATIONS ACQUISITION OF VERIZON
Overview
On May 13, 2009, Verizon announced plans to divest its local wireline communications
system to Frontier Communications. According to a May 19, 2009 letter to the City of
Edmonds from both entities, the transaction includes Verizon’s residential and small business
telephone lines, internet service, long-distance voice accounts, as well as Verizon’s fiber-to-
the-premises (FTTP) assets; Frontier will continue to provide video services after the
completion of the merger.
Similar to the process used to negotiate the Verizon and Comcast Interlocal Agreements,
participating entities (Consortium) to an Interlocal Agreement have jointly contracted with
River Oaks Communications and Ogden Murphy Wallace for common services as well as a
mechanism for each entity to utilize the consultant’s services, as that entity sees fit, and for
additional support in reviewing or negotiating the transfer to meet specific needs of each
participating entity.
Significant Activities Since April 22, 2010
• May 22, 2010 – Federal regulators gave Verizon Communications Inc. permission to sell
nearly 5 million phone land lines in Washington and 13 other states outside of its core
service areas to Frontier Communications Corp. The approval by the Federal
Communications Commission marks the final step which closed on July 1. The
transaction has been cleared by antitrust regulators at the Justice Department and
Federal Trade Commission, as well by as state regulators and local officials. Washington
state regulators approved the transaction last month.

Stevens Hospital.
Economic Development Commission Overview
On June 2, 2009 – The City Council approved Ordinance 3735 which creates a new Citizens
Economic Development Commission (EDC) in order to determine new strategies for
economic development within the City and identify new sources of revenues. In
conjunction with the Planning Board, the new commission is to review and consider
strategies designed to improve commercial viability, tourism development, and activity.
The ED Commission consists of 17 members appointed by Mayor Gary Haakenson and the
City Council. The commission is staffed by the City’s Economic Development Director. The
Commission will make recommendations to the Mayor and City Council, as well as to other
City boards or commissions as appropriate, regarding economic development strategies.
The commission will provide an annual report to the Council in December of every year. The
commission is scheduled to end on December 31, 2010. Minutes from monthly meetings
(once approved by the Edmonds EDC) can be found at
http://www.ci.edmonds.wa.us/EconDevMinutes.stm.

Hospital attended the meeting to discuss preliminary and possible future plans for
the Stevens Hospital. More specifically, as it relates to economic development, I
expressed an interest in learning how the City can help facilitate the transition
related to the Stevens/Swedish affiliation; about plans that exist, if any, at this time
related to renovations/upgrades of Stevens Hospital; and how the City can help
Packet Page 70 of 163
8
facilitate enhancement and (re)development within the City’s identified medical
activity center.
NOTE: Mike Carter, CEO of Stevens Hospital, and Cal Knight, CEO of Swedish
Hospital, will be attending the August 3, 2010 Edmonds City Council meeting to
present an update on the Stevens/Swedish. This meeting will serve as an
opportunity for Stevens and Swedish representatives to communicate directly with
the City Council and indirectly with Edmonds’ residents as a whole for those who
watch Edmonds City Council meetings on the City’s government channel.
Goal 1, Policy 1f of the Edmonds Economic Development Plan states: ”Continue to partner
with business and economic development organizations, and address feedback from the
business community.”
Significant Activities Since April 22, 2010
• April, May, June and July, 2010 – I continue to attend monthly Edmonds Chamber of
Commerce Economic Development Committee meetings and Downtown Edmonds
Merchants Association (DEMA) meetings in order to share information about City
issues and hear about Chamber and DEMA issues/concerns.
II. BUSINESS EXPANSION, RETENTION, AND DIVERSIFICATION OF TAX
BASE
Goal 1, Policy 1c of the Edmonds Economic Development Plan states: “Encourage and
expand business expansion and retention programs. Goal 3 calls for diversifying the tax
base and increasing revenues to support local services.”
Significant Activities Since April 22, 2010
• April, May, June and July, 2010 – I continued working with property and business
owners in attempts to help find leaseable space and relocate existing businesses, in
addition to discussing potential leasing and redevelopment of buildings and land.
Goal 2, Policy 2i of the Edmonds Economic Development Plan states: “Create synergy for
commercial businesses where possible, for example, by implementing a “retail core” area in
the downtown.”
Significant Activities Since April 22, 2010
• June 21, 2010 – I contacted Jonathan Mayo, property owner of the empty business
space at 315 Main Street, northwest corner of 4th Avenue and Main Street, to discuss
the future of Edmonds’ downtown. Specifically, I shared a few thoughts about the
types of uses that would more positively add to the unique character of the
Edmonds’ downtown retail/commercial core. I discussed Edmonds’ unique
downtown character which is defined by the diversity and concentration of
complimentary commercial uses such as restaurants/cafes, art galleries, house
wares, garden supplies, and specialty boutiques, i.e., uses that generate pedestrian
activity and a lively social environment that, in turn, help sustain a mix of uses. I
Packet Page 71 of 163
9
mentioned the importance to creating critical mass of this type of activity which
helps increase the drawing power of the central area commercial retail sector. While
office/service uses have the ability and flexibility to open in more locations within
commercial areas, uses such as retail stores, restaurants, art galleries, etc., have
limited business space stock and thrive best when there is a concentration of similar
uses. The City has been working to attract businesses that will help bring life to the
City's downtown streets during the weekend and evening hours. The recent and
planned addition of new restaurants to this area is continuing to fulfill this goal. To
encourage a vibrant downtown, the first floor spaces in the heart of the
retail/commercial core are encouraged to be designed with adequate ceiling height
to accommodate a range of retail and commercial uses such as boutiques,
restaurants, art galleries, etc. and that provide storefront windows that display items
for sale to the public for those walking along city sidewalks/streets. To encourage
this type of interaction, street front facades of buildings are also to provide a high
percentage of transparent window area. The 315 Main Street location meets these
criteria and is well suited for uses that will further enhance the vitality of downtown
Edmonds.
Mr. Mayo’s response was quite positive. He stated that his family’s vision is to bring
in great commercial tenants that not only bring more retail traffic into Edmonds, but
also add to the unique character of each block, and that his family is putting their
efforts in to finding the best tenant. I am pleased to announce that a retail/food
related tenant has signed a lease for the 315 Main Street property.
III. IMPROVING BUSINESS CLIMATE
Goal 2, Policy 2e of the Edmonds Economic Development Plan states: “explore options such
as Business Improvement Districts/Areas (special assessment districts) as a way to help
shopping areas fund marketing and beautification in a sustainable fashion.
Significant Activities Since April 22, 2010
• April, May, June and July, 2010 – Representatives from the City of Edmonds and Greater
Edmonds Chamber of Commerce continued to meet and discuss the possibility of
establishing a Downtown Edmonds Business Improvement Area.
Goal 2, Policy 2h of the Edmonds Economic Development Plan states: “Work to identify and
“brand” distinct business districts, where there is a natural synergy, such as the Highway 99
International District, the Stevens Hospital Medical Corridor, and the 4th
Avenue Arts
Corridor.”
Significant Activities Since April 22, 2010
• April, May, June and July, 2010 – Highway 99 Enhancement Project - includes adding
street lighting fixtures and artwork along the portion of Highway 99 passing through the
International District. Light fixtures have been delivered to the City of Edmonds. City
staff is preparing documents in preparation of soliciting bids.

Items of Interest
Community Transit Service Change
Significant Activities Since April 22, 2010
• June 13, 2010 – Community Transit (CT) is working to educate riders and the public
about the upcoming service cuts, which took effect June 13. The CT staff will be
riding buses to talk to customers and staffing tables at park & ride lots and transit
centers to answer questions and help people plan their trips for after the service
change.
Detailed route-by-route information about the service change is available on the
agency’s website at www.communitytransit.org/servicechange. New route maps
and bus schedules are also available online, giving riders a full six weeks to make
plans if their trip is being affected.
The Bus Plus schedule book will be on buses at the beginning of June. To save
money, only one edition of Bus Plus is being printed rather than separate books for
local and commuter service.
Community Transit is cutting 15 percent of its service due to budget shortfalls. Most
routes are affected, including eight routes that are being eliminated. In addition, all
bus service will be suspended on Sundays and major holidays. The agency is
working with community partners to coordinate Sunday transportation resources.
The Volunteers of America 2-1-1 Hotline is available to help match people to rides.
American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA)
Significant Activities Since April 22, 2010
In March of 2009, Energy Secretary Steven Chu announced plans to invest $3.2 billion
in energy efficiency and conservation projects in U.S. cities, counties, states,
Energy Efficiency and Conservation Block Grant (EECBG)
Packet Page 74 of 163
12
territories, and Native American tribes. The Energy Efficiency and Conservation Block
Grant (EECBG) program, funded by President Obama’s American Recovery and
Reinvestment Act, will provide formula grants for projects that reduce total energy use
and fossil fuel emissions, and improve energy efficiency nationwide. The City of
Edmonds received notification that it is eligible for a $160,200 block grant under the
EECBG program. The City has until June 25, 2009 to submit an application, i.e., "claim"
the grant amount, and 18 months to obligate and three years to expend the funds
.
This is an entitlement grant for cities over 35,000 in population, rather than a
competitive grant.
City staff conducted several meetings to discuss possible projects or programs that
might be eligible for this type of funding and have developed a preliminary list; these
projects are considered short term. City staff also participated in a DOE webcast to
learn about application submittal procedures and how the funds can be used.
In addition to the above, I contacted other entities such as the Port of Edmonds, Puget
Sound Energy, Snohomish County PUD, Edmonds School District and Stevens Hospital,
to find out whether they might have projects which are small in scale but could be
included in our grant application under a partnership proposal. We are not looking to
expend the grant money on a single project, and we have already identified more than
enough City of Edmonds projects to expend all of the grant money (several times
over). I requested representatives from these entities to share whether they have a
project that (1) would have benefits for the entire community, (2) could be small
enough in terms of cost to fit within an overall multi-project application, and (3) would
have measurable, identifiable results. Examples of projects we are considering include
energy-efficient equipment retrofits, vehicle replacement, traffic signal timing, energy
code training and information programs, and software that can turn off electronic
equipment during late night non-working hours. The second reason I contact these
entities is to explore opportunities for partnering on projects that may go beyond the
funding available in this first round of block grants. US-DOE has indicated that there
will be a "competitive round" of grants available, although details have not been
established. We believe that grant applications emphasizing partnering on a
community or regional level will be what DOE is looking for, especially those that have
long-term effects and can serve as "demonstration projects" for others to access.
Announcement of the EECBG opportunity was shared with, and a proposed project list
was also reviewed by, the Mayor’s Climate Protection Committee.
On September 22, 2009, the City was notified that the Department of Energy has awarded
an Energy Efficiency Conservation Block Grant to the City of Edmonds. The award is
the full amount referenced in the March 2009 eligibility announcement ($160,200).
The funds will be used for the following six different projects.
Announcement of the
EECBG opportunity was shared with, and the attached proposed project list was also
reviewed by, the Mayor’s Climate Protection Committee.
Project 1 - PC Energy Management (federal funds)
Purchase and install energy management software for City computers (PC's).
Enables automatic shut-down and management of upgrades. The cost covered
Packet Page 75 of 163
13
under the grant is for the purchase of the software and licenses to cover
computer workstations throughout City government, linked by network at several
building sites.
Project 2 - Network Server Energy Upgrades – (federal funds)
Purchase and install energy-efficient PC network servers, replacing old servers
still in use. Estimated project cost should enable four (4) servers to be replaced.
Existing servers will be taken out of service, thereby reducing overall energy
usage.
Project 3 - Residential & Commercial Energy Meters (federal and local non-federal
funds)
Purchase energy meters to support residential and commercial energy
monitoring, partnering with ongoing programs operated by local utilities.
Establish public information plan, coordinated with the utilities, which provides
educational resources and web-based support. The meters would be available for
loan to private citizens or businesses to help monitor and assess energy needs,
encouraging conservation and energy reduction.
This program will consist of two components: (1) the purchase of home energy
meters for loan to residential households and businesses within the city, and (2)
website development to promote the meter program and enable homeowners to
log their experiences and energy savings, and to encourage others to participate
and ultimately save energy.
Two types of meters will be purchased, which can be loaned out as a “set.” One
meter will be similar to a simple plug-in meter (e.g. the P3 International Kill A
Watt EZ Electricity Usage Monitor) which allows monitoring of appliance energy
consumption. The second type of meter (e.g. PowerCost Home Electricity
Monitor) is a unit that will interface with the home electric utility meter, allowing
monitoring of overall electrical energy used in the home. In tandem, these will
allow homeowners to monitor and potentially reduce overall energy usage. The
meters will be loaned out free of charge, for a defined time period, with
information on usage and savings to be reported as feedback to help assess the
benefits of the program.
The second part of the program is an enhancement to the City’s website to
promote and provide for online reporting and feedback on the effectiveness of
the program. Privacy will be afforded users, but reporting will be required of
residents choosing to participate in the program so as to provide some
measurement of effectiveness.
Project 4 - Heating System Design and Feasibility Study (federal funds)
A consultant will be hired to perform an analysis and feasibility study to replace
the Frances Anderson Cultural Center (a heavily used community center) steam
boiler heating system with ground source heat pumps or an alternative energy-
efficient heating source. The existing system is old and highly inefficient.
Packet Page 76 of 163

However, because of the size and complexity of the building and its systems, the
City needs to conduct an assessment and feasibility study to evaluate different
energy-efficient alternatives before considering replacement of the existing
system.
Project 5 - Purchase Hybrid Vehicles – (federal and local non-federal funds)
The City would purchase up to seven (7) hybrid vehicles to replace existing low-
efficiency City vehicles. EECBG funds can only be used to fund the delta
between the cost of a hybrid vehicle (or Alternative Fuel Vehicle – AFV) and the
cost of a non-hybrid vehicle (or non-AFV). Existing mid-size cars and
trucks/pickups would be replaced with small hybrid cars and hybrid utility
vehicles (SUV’s). The average fuel efficiency of the existing vehicles ranges from
8 to 22 MPG while the new hybrid replacements provide between 32 and 50
MPG.
When purchasing vehicles, the City uses Washington State contracting
procedures and contract listing prices. According to the State of Washington
Current Contract Information, there are two types of small sedan AFV vehicles
available and one small SUV AFV vehicle available for purchase using this
process.
Note: It is possible that the City may consider the purchase of an electric police
scooter and/or other electric sedan(s) in lieu of one or more of the hybrid
vehicles identified above as technology and availability improves. This is
dependant on availability and pricing within the required 3-year expenditure
window.
Project 6 - Low-Energy Lighting Retrofit – (federal funds)
Existing exterior lighting of the outdoor work yard at the Public Works facility is
provided by traditional, inefficient 150-watt high pressure sodium fixtures. Based
on discussions with the electrical utility provider (Snohomish PUD), the City has
determined that energy and cost savings are possible if the existing lights are
replaced with low-energy lumen-equivalent lights, such as LED fixtures. This
project would complement ongoing City efforts to replace existing lighting
fixtures with more energy efficient lights.
Significant Activities Since April 22, 2010
•
June 4, 2010 – The Public Works Department has replaced 28 exterior inefficient
150-watt high pressure sodium fixtures with low-energy lumen-equivalent lights,
i.e., LED fixtures. This project would complement ongoing City efforts to replace
existing lighting fixtures with more energy efficient lights. I submitted a
completed Payment Transaction Voucher to ASAP.gov on July 2, 2010 and the City
received payment on July 6, 2010.

Burlington Northern Santa Fe – Installation of Second Rail Line
As a part of the Sound Transit’s Sound Move, Burlington Northern Santa Fe (BNSF) will
be installing a second rail line alongside the existing rail line between the areas north of
Downtown Edmonds and south of Marina Beach Park. During a meeting with Sound
Transit earlier this year, BNSF presented a plan depicting what BNSF believes to be the
final alignment and realignment of the second and existing rail lines respectively. The
plan depicts Port of Edmonds and City of Edmonds leased areas in addition to what
portions of the leased areas BNSF intends to take back from both entities as a result of
the above mentioned activities. Upon reviewing the plan, City staff requested that BNSF
survey and stake/mark in the field where the fencing (west side of tracks) is to be
located. The City and Port of Edmonds submitted this request in order to begin
assessing future impacts, and planning for post installation/realignment of the rail lines.
As expressed on a number of occasions to BNSF, the City and Port are concerned about
potential impacts related to realignment and installation of BNSF rail lines. We are
equally concerned about the amount of time the City and Port may have to react to any
decision(s) made by BNSF and the potential financial impacts to our budgets. Depending
on the magnitude of BNSF construction related impacts, the City and Port of Edmonds
may not have the staffing and financial resources to mitigate the impacts. The City has
asked BNSF representatives if they have a mitigation fund set aside to mitigate adverse
impacts. To date, we have not heard back from BNSF.
Based on BNSF engineering plans and field stakes, there will be impacts to Admiral Way
and Marina Beach Park. As mentioned in the 2010 Community Services and Economic
Development Quarterly Reports, the City secured the services of an engineering firm in
order to fully determine the impact and possibly design a new Admiral Way alignment
that will maintain access to Marina Beach Park, Port of Edmonds and existing parking
areas (see Significant Activities below).
Regarding a timeline related to the installation of a BNSF second rail line, BNSF has
begun grading south of Dayton Street and the installation and relocation of the existing
and second rail lines respectively, could begin sometime in 2011 and 2012. This being
said, I am trying to obtain a definitive date as to when installation of the second rail
line.
Significant Activities Since April 22, 2010
• April 22, 2010 - Community Services, Public Works and Development Services staff
attended a preconstruction meeting for the proposed Burlington Northern Santa Fe
Double Tracking project. Underground Utility Upgrades were also discussed.
• July, 2010 – BNSF has yet to formally respond to a request from the City and Port of
Edmonds to fund improvements necessary of offset impacts created from installation
and relocation of the existing and proposed rail lines respectively. The City and Port
are working to obtain an answer from BNSF and perhaps legislative officials.
Packet Page 78 of 163

• June and July, 2010 – At my request, BNSF has agreed to use black vinyl chain link
fencing instead of silver galvanized along Admiral Way, Marina Beach Park and off leash
area to minimize visual impact. When the first portion of the fence is installed, the
BNSF contractor will temporally relocate the off leash area entrance to give contractor
ample room for staging while tunneling is underway; completion is expected in late
August or early September. Eventually, new fencing will be installed along the Marian
Beach off leash area and northward along Admiral Way a few hundred fee to the south
edge of the Port of Edmonds work yard. Rich Lindsey with the City’s Parks Department
is working with BNSF and their fence contractor to make sure that temporary public
information signs are posted near the construction site.
Mukilteo Multimodal Terminal Project
June 10, 2010 Workshop
WSDOT WSF conducted a Mukilteo Multimodal Project workshop at Mukilteo City Hall
with state and federal agencies and interested tribes was conducted. The purpose of
this meeting was to review the preliminary alternatives and the draft screening criteria
with agencies and tribes. The meeting consisted of a project presentation with open
discussion and an opportunity to provide additional comments on the alternatives
during the working lunch. The presentation provided a history and overview of the
Mukilteo Multimodal Project. Then the floor was opened up for discussion and
comments from meeting attendees during the presentation of the preliminary concepts
and the Level 1 and Level 2 screening criteria. For additional information, visit the

Washington State Ferries
June, 2010 – Edmonds/Kingston schedule reliability improvements
Washington State Ferries has preliminary results from changes made to improve
schedule reliability on the Edmonds/Kingston route. It is still early, but comparing
statistics from the first week of summer schedule in 2009 and 2010, significant
improvement is shown. In Kingston, the percentage of sailings leaving within 10
minutes of departure time was 68 percent in 2009 and 98 percent in 2010. For
Edmonds, the percentage grew from 70 percent to 98 percent of sailings leaving within
10 minutes of departure time. Washington State Ferries will continue to update Cities
as more information becomes available.
July 12, 2010 – Meeting with Representatives Rolfes and Liias
Davie Moseley, WSDOT Ferries Division Assistant Secretary, met with State Representatives
Christine Rolfes and Marko Liias, City of Edmonds Public Works and Community Services staff,
Edmonds Police, Washington State Patrol, and the Edmonds Ferry Advisory Committee regarding
traffic challenges at the existing Edmonds Main Street Terminal. The group discussed potential
options for improving loading and offloading efficiency. Washington State Ferries is trying some
different loading options, developing a cost estimate for adding a signal at Sunset and Main, and
will work on smoothing out the bump at the railroad tracks in August, 2010.

Committee Action:Approved for Consent Agenda
Information
Subject Title
Award construction contract for Edmonds Historical Museum Exterior Repairs Project.
Recommendation from Mayor and Staff
Award the contract for this project to the apparent low bidder, Pioneer Masonry Restoration
Company. Inc., in the amount of $40,792.04.
Previous Council Action
On February 23, 2010, the City Council authorized the allocation of $100,000 to Fund 116 to
cover the City share on a Washington State Historical Society matching fund grant ($48,000) to
restore the exterior of the Edmonds Historical Museum. On April 6, 2010, the City Council
authorized the mayor to sign a grant agreement with the Washington State Historical Society
for this project.
Narrative
The Edmonds Historical Museum was originally constructed as a Carnegie Library in 1910, and it
also served as Edmonds City Hall for a significant period of time. Over the 100 years of its
existence, this building has seen the effects of weathering and age impact its exterior, and work
now needs to be done to clean, restore, and preserve the building envelope.
Per the 2009 City of Edmonds Purchasing Policies and Procedures, the project to address the
deteriorating exterior of the Edmonds Historical Museum qualifies for the use of the Municipal
Research and Services Center (MRSC) Small Works Roster to select a contractor. Five contractors
from the MRSC subcategory, Masonry - Restoration and Cleaning, were chosen to provide the
City with bids for this work. The City received three bids at the time of the opening on July 13,
2010, and the bid summary is attached for review.
Because of attaining a state grant award in 2009, the City potentially has an additional $48,000 in
its coffers for use on all eligible project expenses (at a 2:1 match rate). This grant must be
expended before July 1, 2011, and the work requires adequate weather to proceed, so moving
forward with the project this summer is best. The low bid was determined on the basis of the work
identified in the lump sum contract scope. Along with the lump sum bid, participants were asked
to provide unit pricing for five restoration activities. This methodology allows the establishment of
known costs per unit of measurement for each activity while permitting the flexibility to choose
the approaches that make the most sense during the restoration work. At this point, one such unit
Packet Page 80 of 163
cost likely to be exercised is to skim-coat the entire surface of the building below the level of the
brick. This will provide a uniform look to this area that would otherwise be more difficult to
achieve through individual crack and hole repairs. There is approximately 1300 SF of this area,
and the stated unit cost of $15/SF means this will add about $21,000 to the contract value.
Additionally, because of the age of this building, our architectural consultants, BOLA Architecture
+ Planning, have recommended we keep in hand a contingency of $16,000 to address any
unforeseen conditions.
Putting these dollar figures together means it would be prudent to authorize a construction project
budget of $79,000. This will ensure flexibility and funding to complete the needed exterior
restoration of this historic building. The project estimate completed in late June totaled
nearly $96,000, so this budget also represents a good value to the City. The contract award itself to
Pioneer Masonry Restoration Company, Inc., is requested to match the given bid amount of
$40,792.04.

United States Postal Service presentation regarding replacement of the Edmonds Main
Street Post Office.
Recommendation from Mayor and Staff
Previous Council Action
Narrative
The City received the attached letter from Katherine Nash, District Manager with the United
States Postal Service (USPS) identifying the downtown Edmonds Post Office as a facility that has
more space that what USPS needs. The letter was faxed to the City by Mr. John Logan, Hunter
Roop Real Estate Specialist, working on behalf of USPS. According to Mr. Logan, USPS intends
to consolidate its truck operations and operate out of the Perrinville Post Office location. Prior to
the receipt of this letter, I contacted representatives from USPS and Congressman Inslee’s office
based on rumors that this might happen. From these conversations, it is my understanding that
USPS intends to retain a USPS retail facility within Downtown Edmonds, e.g., post office boxes,
pick up and mailing of packages, etc., albeit at a smaller scale than what exists today and without
large truck operations.
Please note that within the letter, Ms. Nash is requesting the City’s input and concurrence with
USPS plans prior to undertaking a solicitation process to secure 4,110 square feet on a site of
one-acre in size. I mentioned to a Mr. Logan that the developer who purchased the existing post
office site is working on plans to accommodate a facility approximately 4,000+ square feet. He
also heard of this possibility, but first USPS needs to follow a certain protocol as a part of
selecting a final site to meet their needs.
As indicated in the attached letter, the Postal Service desires to work closely with the City and
community to achieve a mutually beneficial postal facility for the Edmonds Community. The
purpose of this July 27, 2010 City Council meeting is to allow the USPS to hear from the City
Council as they proceed forward with USPS plans.

Introduction of proposed updates to ECDC 20.15A SEPA Regulations.
Recommendation from Mayor and Staff
Schedule public hearing for proposed updates to ECDC 20.15A.
Previous Council Action
The ECDC 20.15A update was discussed with the CS/DS Committee on May 12, 2009.
Narrative
The City of Edmonds SEPA regulations are codified in ECDC 20.15A. The City’s original SEPA
regulations were adopted under Ordinance 1855 in 1976. In 1984, the City adopted Ordinance No.
2461 which created ECDC 20.15A in order to come into compliance with the new (at that time)
SEPA rules in WAC 197-11 and model SEPA ordinance in WAC 173-806. The ECDC 20.15A
the City uses today is essentially the same ordinance that was adopted 25 years ago having under
gone only five minor amendments in that time.
ECDC 20.15A is being reviewed as part of the City’s comprehensive review of its development
regulations. Due to changes in the RCW’s, WAC’s, and the City’s own code, ECDC 20.15A is
long over due for an update.
Potential updates to ECDC 20.15A were presented to the Planning Board on July 22, 2009. The
Planning Board directed staff to propose new flexible thresholds for categorical exemptions under
SEPA.
Proposed new flexible thresholds were presented at the February 24, 2010 Planning Board
meeting. The Planning Board agreed they would like to consider changes to the flexible
thresholds, but only for the Highway 99 Corridor and multi-family residential areas along main
aterials such as 212th St SW, 196th St SW, and State Route 104. Staff was directed to update the
flexible threshold proposal and bring it back for further Board review.
Four flexible threshold alternatives based on Board guidance were presented to the Planning
Board on April 14, 2010. The Planning Board ultimately chose an alternative that increased the
flexible threshold for the Medical/Highway 99 Activity Center and the Highway 99 Cooridor. The
Planning Board also reviewed proposed changes to the text of ECDC 20.15A which largely
Packet Page 103 of 163
follows the model code provided in WAC 173-806.
The Planning Board held a public hearing on the proposed changes to ECDC 20.15A on June 23,
2010 and voted to forward the proposed amendments to ECDC 20.15A Environmental Review to
the City Council with a recommendation of approval as proposed (Exhibit 1).
Exhibit 2 is a memorandum detailing the review of ECDC 20.15A, Exhibit 3 is a redline/strike

PUBLIC HEARING ON UPDATING THE NUMBER OF PERMITTED PERMANENT SIGNS PER SITE IN
BUSINESS AND COMMERCIAL ZONES (EDMONDS COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT CODE (ECDC)
20.60.025) (FILE NUMBER AMD20100014)
Mr. Clugston recalled that the Board discussed the proposed amendment to the sign code at their April 14th and April 28th
meetings. He explained that the proposed amendments would change the total number of permitted signs allowed in
business and commercial zones to provide more flexibility for businesses on multi-tenant sites. He emphasized that all other
requirements related to height, area, location, etc. would remain the same. He reminded the Board, that at the end of their
last discussion, they directed staff to prepare code amendment language that would:
1. Increase the maximum number of signs allowed on multi-tenant business sites from one to three per subtenant business
while allowing one group directory sign per multi-tenant site.
2. Exempt window signs from the total number of permanent permitted signs.
Board Member Johnson recalled that at their April 28th meeting, Mr. Chave noted that some businesses use incidental
information signs, which would be inconsistent with Option 2. He suggested the language include a provision that while
incidental signs would count against the total sign area, they would not count against the number of signs allowed. Mr.
Clugston explained that the proposed amendments are intended to deal strictly with the number of permitted signs in business
and commercial zones. However, he suggested it would be entirely appropriate for the Board to address the issue of
incidental signs when they conduct a more comprehensive review of the sign code at some point in the future. Board
Member Johnson agreed that would be a good approach.
Roger Hertrich, Edmonds, said that he has participated in many sign code changes over the years, and he has witnessed
that businesses tend to place as many signs as possible in their windows. He said he lives across the street from a deli that
had so many window signs it was unsightly. He complained to the City and the owner was required to comply with the sign
code. The situation is much better now. He cautioned against approving any amendment that would make it easier for
businesses to use window signs.
Al Rutledge, Edmonds, recommended the Board maintain the existing sign code, which only allows three signs per
commercial lot. This will require the person who owns the property to work with tenants to ensure that each business has
adequate opportunity for signage. He concluded that signage should be addressed as part of the lease agreement.
THE PUBLIC PORTION OF THE HEARING WAS CLOSED.
Mr. Chave explained that the proposed language would not change the current code provisions for window signs, which are
based on area and not number of signs. Mr. Clugston added that the current code limits the area of window signs to one
square foot per linier foot of window frontage, and this would not be changed by the proposed amendments. Board Member
Stewart said she can appreciate Mr. Hertrich’s concern about window signs. She felt the current code provision could result
in a lot of visual obstruction, particularly on large windows. Mr. Chave expressed his belief that the current formula works
well, and he recalled Mr. Hertrich’s earlier statement that when the code provisions were enforced, the situation at the deli
across from his home was improved. He emphasized that the linier length of a window does not take into account the height
of a window, so the amount of window sign area actually adds up to a fairly small percentage of total sign area on windows
with more vertical height.
BOARD MEMBER CLOUTIER MOVED THE COMMISSION FORWARD THE PROPOSED CHANGES TO
ECDC 20.60.025 (FILE NUMBER AMD20100014) TO THE CITY COUNCIL WITH A RECOMMENDATION OF
APPROVAL AS PROPOSED BY STAFF. BOARD MEMBER GUENTHER SECONDED THE MOTION. THE

Planning Board Minutes
June 23, 2010 Page 4
Mr. Lien advised that potential updates to ECDC 20.15A were presented to the Planning Board on July 22, 2009, and the
Board directed staff to propose new flexible thresholds for categorical exemptions under the State Environmental Protection
Act (SEPA). The proposed new flexible thresholds were presented to the Board on February 24th, and the Board agreed they
would like to consider changes to the thresholds, but only for limited areas. Four flexible thresholds alternatives were
presented to the Board on April 14th, and the Board chose an alternative that increased the flexible threshold for the
Medical/Highway 99 Activity Center and the Highway 99 Corridor. He reviewed that the SEPA rules were adopted by the
City in 1984 (over 25 years ago), and only very minor changes have been made since that time. Due to changes in the
Revised Code of Washington (RCW), the Washington Administrative Code (WAC) and the City’ s own Development Code,
staff believes it is appropriate to review and update Section 20.15A as part of the City’s comprehensive review of its
development regulations. He briefly reviewed the items and issues that have been considered under the review as follows:
1. Adoption by Reference. Sections of WAC 197-11 have been added and/or removed since the City adopted Ordinance
2461 in 1984, particularly in regards to SEPA and the Growth Management Act (GMA) integration. The update
reviewed changes in WAC 197-11 and the option lists in ECDC 20.15A to ensure the City is up-to-date with State
regulations.
2. Model Code. As with WAC 197-11, there have been changes to WAC 173-806 since 1984. Staff reviewed WAC 173-
806 and made updates to ECDC 20.15A where appropriate to ensure the City is up-to-date and compliant with State
regulations. Many of the changes in the model code had to do with consistency between the GMA and zoning
regulations.
3. Consistency. As with the state rules, the ECDC has undergone a number of amendments since 1984. Staff reviewed
ECDC 20.15A to ensure it remains consistent with the rest of the City’s development regulations.
4. Categorical Exemptions – Flexible Thresholds. State SEPA rules allow local jurisdictions to modify the categorically
exempt threshold levels for certain minor new construction activities. He reviewed the City’s current flexible thresholds
and what state law allows .
5. Climate Change. How to evaluate and mitigate climate change impacts through SEPA is a subject that is garnering a
lot of attention. The Climate Action Team’s SEPA Implementation Working Group released a report in 2009 in an
attempt to clarify how consideration of climate change should be incorporated into environmental review and decision
making under SEPA. However, the report was not definitive, and there was no strong consensus amongst the group and
no strong recommendations other than the Department of Ecology (DOE) should look into the issue and develop
guidelines. The DOE released draft guidelines in May, and the comment period expires in just a few days.
Recently, the City started laying the groundwork for addressing climate change impacts via the SEPA process through
the adoption of the Community Sustainability Element and the development of a Climate Change Action Plan. The
policies in these two plans establish a foundation for the City to begin developing SEPA regulations to evaluate and/or
mitigate impacts of climate change. The current phase of SEPA amendments focuses on technical updates to ensure the
City’s code is consistent with State regulations. Once these updates are in place, the City can start developing a program
for analyzing and mitigating climate change through the SEPA process. He cautioned that developing a program of this
type will take some time and can be incorporated into ECDC 20.15A at a future date.
Mr. Lien advised that determining the environmental impact of a development involves the context and intensity of the
development and does not lend itself to a formula or quantifiable test. The context may vary with the physical setting.
Intensity depends on the magnitude and duration of an impact. The same proposal may have a significant impact in one
location but not another. He recalled that, with this in mind, the Board reviewed the flexible threshold levels for categorical
exemptions and discussed a number of options:
1. Leave the levels at the minimums established by WAC 197-11-800(1)(b).
2. Increase all, or a portion of the levels, for the entire City.
3. Establish different threshold levels for different Comprehensive Plan designations.
4. Establish different threshold levels for different zones.

5. Establish different threshold levels considering zoning and Comprehensive Plan designations.
Mr. Lien reviewed that the Planning Board proposed to increase the categorical exemption thresholds for the
Medical/Highway 99 Activity Center and the Highway 99 Corridor as defined by the City of Edmonds Comprehensive Plan.
This would result in the following changes:
The flexible threshold for residential structures would be increased from 4 dwelling units to a maximum of 20 dwelling
units.
The flexible threshold for new construction would be increased from 4,000 square feet to 12,000 square feet.
The flexible threshold for parking lots would be increased from 20 automobiles to 40 automobiles.
The flexible threshold for excavation and grading would remain at 500 square feet, which is the maximum allowed by
State law.
Board Member Reed asked staff why they added the words “in all locations throughout the City of Edmonds” in Section
20.15A.090,B.1. Mr. Lien said the additional language makes it clear that while the flexible threshold for landfills and
excavation have been increased to the maximum throughout the City, the other flexible threshold increases would only apply
to the Medical/Highway 99 Activity Center and the Highway 99 Corridor. Board Member Reed asked if the boundaries for
the Medical/Highway 99 Activity Center and the Highway 99 Corridor are clearly defined in the Comprehensive Plan. Mr.
Lien answered affirmatively.
Jessie Byer, Edmonds, said she lives in the area designated as the Medical/Highway 99 Activity Center and is opposed to
the proposal to increase the flexible thresholds. While the SEPA requirements do not present a barrier for development
within the activity center, they do help protect the neighborhood when development does occur. She expressed her belief
that the proposed changes would do no one any good. She emphasized that no one living near a proposed development of up
to 20 units and 12,000 square feet would consider the project minor, particularly given that the average size of the residential
homes located in the activity center is about 1,500 square feet. She said it is insulting that her neighborhood is of less
importance to the City than the neighborhoods in the bowl. It appears the City Council is trying to push development out
into other neighborhoods that do not have as much pull as the property owners in downtown Edmonds. She asked the Board
to consider all citizens who live in established neighborhoods throughout the City. She said she is opposed to the proposed
changes to the SEPA requirements and implored the Board to do the same and keep the neighborhood’s process in place.
Colleen McDonald said she lives 300 feet from the Medical/Highway 99 Activity Center and is concerned about the
proposed change to the flexible thresholds under SEPA that would only apply to the activity center and the Highway 99
Corridor. She pointed out there are a significant number of residential properties in established neighborhoods within this
area. People continue to move the neighborhood because it is one of the few places in Edmonds where affordable housing
options are available. She said she is particularly concerned the proposed change it would eliminate the citizens’ opportunity
to participate in the process and there would be no ability to appeal. She suggested this seems a bit harsh. She expressed her
belief that the existing thresholds are appropriate for a City the size of Edmonds, and it does not make sense to adjust them to
the maximum just because State Law allows them to do so. While the higher thresholds may be appropriate for large cities,
they are not appropriate for Edmonds. She agreed with Ms. Byer. If someone were putting 20 homes in her neighborhood,
she would consider it a massive development that could result in increased traffic and other problems. She also expressed
concern that because she lives downstream from the activity center, she could experience flooding from the stream that runs
past her back yard as a result of significant development in the activity center. If this were to occur, she would have no
ability to voice her concerns. She summarized that she is opposed to the proposal that would raise the flexible thresholds in
the activity center to the maximum allowed by State law, thus removing the public’s ability to participate in the process.
Joe St. Laurent, Edmonds, said he lives within the Medical/Highway 99 Activity Center and agrees with the concerns
raised by the previous speakers that there would be no opportunity for public review or appeal if the proposed amendments
are approved. He suggested this would be contrary to due process and would be considered arbitrary and capricious. He
said it is important to remember that there is a residential neighborhood located right in the middle of the activity center. It is
not just developed for medical uses, the high school, etc. There are single-family homes. He said his client, James Plute, has
owned the majority of the land on the 220th block where Mr. Shapiro is proposing redevelopment for nearly 50 years. He has
Packet Page 107 of 163
DRAFT
Planning Board Minutes
June 23, 2010 Page 6
contributed to the community and is opposed to any type of change in the SEPA law that would result in the citizens having
less or no opportunity to review or appeal future development applications.
Al Rutledge, Edmonds, said he lives in the Ballinger area near Highway 99. He pointed out that when there are events at
the cemetery, there are between 35 and 150 cars that end up backing up traffic. He recalled that the Comprehensive Plan
indicates the City’s goal of encouraging development on Highway 99, and there are several projects in the works. He
reminded the Board that this additional development would result in more traffic, which is an issue that needs to be
addressed in the Development Code.
Roger Hertrich, Edmonds, said he has lived in Edmonds for a number of years and happens to live on a State highway
(196th). He said it is difficult to understand how he would be impacted if the same thresholds were being proposed for the
properties along 196th. He expressed his belief that the Comprehensive Plan actually extends the boundaries of the
Medical/Highway 99 Activity Center further than it should have, and it currently incorporates neighborhoods that have been
stable for many years. He suggested that perhaps it would be appropriate for the Board to review the boundaries again and
consider potential adjustments.
Mr. Hertrich suggested the Board ask staff to provide a clear explanation of the benefits that SEPA provides for the citizens
of Edmonds. He pointed out that there are other aspects associated with clearing and grading aside from the amount of earth
that is removed or added. The City must also address how the removal process would impact surrounding property owners.
He questioned why the City would want to eliminate the SEPA requirement if it provides additional protection to address
issues such as stormwater runoff, traffic impacts, environmental concerns, etc. He further questioned how staff would
resolve these issues if no SEPA is required. He observed that many times in the past, staff has indicated that they use the
SEPA process to mitigate impacts.
Mr. Hertrich summarized that he believes the proposed changes are too zealous, and the idea of eliminating the SEPA
requirement is not appropriate. He recalled that Board Member Guenther previously stated that he has filled out SEPA
Checklists on a number of occasions, and the process is not complicated, costly or time consuming. However, it does give
the City the ability to deal with impacts associated with a proposed development. He said he does not see a reason for the
proposed change; the City was getting along quite nicely before. He suggested that in some cases, there has not been enough
SEPA control because developments fall below the existing thresholds. Expanding the thresholds as proposed would
eliminate what little control the City does have to protect residential neighborhoods. He reminded the Board that the City
Council recently made a decision to provide additional protection to a neighborhood that is located within the
Medical/Highway 99 Activity Center. He suggested they also consider providing more protection for the other
neighborhoods that are located in the same area. He urged the Board to ask more questions and carefully consider what
would be lost as a result of the proposed changes.
THE PUBLIC PORTION OF THE HEARING WAS CLOSED.
In response to Mr. Hertrich’s question about what the City gains by SEPA, Mr. Lien explained that there are certain notice
requirements associated with SEPA, and notice would actually be required for most of the projects that require SEPA
anyway. SEPA is a trigger for certain projects to be sent to the Architectural Design Board (ADB) for review; if a project
requires SEPA review, it is automatically sent to the ADB.
Mr. Lien recalled the Board previously reviewed the potential impacts of adjusting the flexible thresholds as proposed. Of
the 178 SEPA reviews the City has conducted since 2004, 108 were subject to the flexible thresholds. The most common
SEPA trigger was for landfill and excavation, which is already set at the maximum allowed by State Law. Of the 108
projects that were subject to the flexible thresholds, 90 exceeded the 500 cubic yard threshold for landfill and excavation,
and 40 were triggered solely for that reason. Of all the projects proposed for the Medical/Highway 99 Activity Center and
the Highway 99 Corridor, only two would not have required SEPA review based on the proposed amendments. If the
flexible thresholds were expanded for all multi-family and commercial zones in the City, five of the projects would not have
been required to go through SEPA review. He summarized that based on historical data, the impact of raising the thresholds
as proposed would be minimal.

Mr. Lien agreed with Ms. McDonald that if a project is exempt from SEPA, there would be no process to appeal the
determination. Mr. Chave said it is important for the Commission to consider the tradeoffs. Mr. Hertrich was right in his
explanation of what is gained by SEPA review and what would be lost if SEPA review is not required. He explained that
SEPA has very little affect on development in single-family zones because the City has other processes that have more sway.
For example, subdivisions of more than five units require a public hearing process, and this requirement would not change.
He noted that most SEPA reviews were related to landfill and grading, and had very little to do with the scale of the proposed
development. This raises the question of what the City would gain from SEPA review versus what it would lose. At this
time, many of the City’s processes and regulations already control issues that would be considered under SEPA such as
transportation impacts and critical areas. He reminded the Board that the City’s goal is to promote economic development in
the Medical/Highway 99 Activity Center and the Highway 99 Corridor, and the State recognized these situations when they
granted local jurisdictions the authority to adjust their flexible thresholds.
Mr. Chave reminded the Board that climate change may have a large impact on development in the future. Until the City
adopts local regulations to address climate change, SEPA may be the best mechanism available. This issue must also be
taken into consideration when determining the right flexible threshold balance. He summarized that SEPA is only one piece
of the development puzzle, and there are many other process the City uses to provide public notice and hearing opportunities.
Particularly in single-family zones, there is a clear public process that comes into play outside of SEPA. SEPA cannot
control the level of development allowed on a property; it can only condition development based on impacts that are not
otherwise addressed in the code. Most issue associated with single-family developed are addressed by the Development
Code. That is one of the main reasons why SEPA is less important than it once was.
Board Member Cloutier emphasized that this is not the first time the Board has considered the proposed amendments, nor is
it the first public hearing on the matter. When the Board discussed the proposed amendments in February and April, they
raised many of the same concerns that have been raised by the public. He reassured the public that the Board is not ignoring
their concerns, but he is satisfied that the concerns can be addressed by the current provisions in the Development Code and
other City regulations.
Board Member Reed suggested that it would be appropriate to clarify elsewhere in Section 20.15A that the flexible threshold
for landfill and excavation has already been raised to the maximum level possible for all zones in the City. The language
should also clarify the threshold further.
Board Member Reed recalled that the Board previously determined there would be minimal time and cost savings associated
with the proposed amendments. They also discussed that environmental impacts associated with a proposed project would
be addressed by the Critical Areas Ordinance. The Board determined that Option 3 (increasing the flexible thresholds for
only the Medical/Highway 99 Activity Center and the Highway 99 Corridor) was the best of the four options. However, he
said he would be in favor of adjusting all of the flexible thresholds to the minimum levels identified in State Law because
SEPA review is important in every project. Projects in the Medical/Highway 99 Activity Center will have an impact on
surrounding schools and residential neighborhoods. If the SEPA process was extremely costly and time consuming, he
might have a different position, but it is not. He referred to Section 20.15A.220.C.1, which lists the types of things staff
would consider as part of the SEPA review. He expressed his belief that this is a good edition to the language, and perhaps it
would also be appropriate to include this language in the opening statement of the Comprehensive Plan. Mr. Lien noted that
this language came directly from the model ordinance.
Board Member Guenther said he has filled out several SEPA Checklists, which are used by the City to address all of the
different factors related to a proposed development. As Mr. Chave pointed out, there are also development requirements that
address specific issues on the checklist, such as the Critical Areas Ordinance. He summarized that the checklist is not
intended to be a safeguard, but is used by cities to see how a proposed project complies with the existing ordinances. If there
is something that is not addressed by the current ordinances, then some type of mitigation would be required as part of the
determination. He summarized that he does not see that changing the thresholds as proposed would change the code
requirements the City already has in placed. However, the proposed change could improve the process.
Board Member Stewart asked staff to identify what the City would gain from increasing the thresholds. She recognized that
the City is trying to encourage more density and transit-oriented development in the Medical/Highway 99 Activity Center
Packet Page 109 of 163
DRAFT

June 23, 2010 Page 8
and the Highway 99 Corridor to comply with GMA. She suggested that raising the threshold for parking appears to be
counterproductive in this regard. Mr. Lien agreed that the Comprehensive Plan encourages redevelopment in these areas.
Having one less hurdle could make the area more attractive to developers. In addition, when considering the impact the
proposed changes would have had on past SEPA reviews, there appears to be minimal difference even if the thresholds were
raised for all commercial and multi-family zones.
Board Member Stewart emphasized that changing the thresholds would not alter the zoning in the two areas. However, it
would allow for development to occur without SEPA review if the properties are rezoned at some point in the future. Mr.
Lien explained that the flexible thresholds would not apply to rezone applications. A rezone application would still be
required to go through the SEPA process. Development of properties within the two areas would still be required to meet the
zoning requirements, the critical areas provisions, traffic impact fees, etc., but no SEPA review would be required for
projects that fall below the threshold levels. Board Member Stewart asked if adjusting the thresholds would result in less
environmental protection, and Mr. Lien answered no.
Board Member Johnson observed that SEPA has given local jurisdictions the opportunity to adjust their thresholds if they
choose to do so. The City Council has given clear direction that they want to promote economic development in the
Medical/Highway 99 Activity Center and the Highway 99 Corridor. While the proposed amendments may be a small step in
this direction, it is something the Planning Board can do to further this goal. She recalled that she previously expressed her
belief that the flexible thresholds should not be changed for residential structures. There may be certain impacts that are not
covered by the existing regulations pertaining to noise, etc. This is one area where additional SEPA review may be
appropriate. However, she supports the proposed amendments to adjust the flexible thresholds for new construction and
parking lots.
BOARD MEMBER REED MOVED THAT THE BOARD FORWARD THE PROPOSED AMENDMENTS TO
ECDC 20.15A ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW (FILE NUMBER AMD20090006) TO THE CITY COUNCIL WITH
A RECOMMENDATION OF APPROVAL AS PROPOSED. BOARD MEMBER CLOUTIER SECONDED THE
MOTION.
BOARD MEMBER REED MOVED TO AMEND HIS MOTION TO ELIMINATE THE PROPOSED
AMENDMENTS TO SECTION 20.15A.090 FROM THE RECOMMENDATION. HE FURTHER
RECOMMENDED THAT STAFF CLARIFY THE FLEXIBLE THRESHOLD FOR LANDFILL AND
EXCAVATION ELSEWHERE IN THE CODE LANGUAGE. THE MOTION TO AMEND DIED FOR LACK OF
A SECOND.
Board Member Cloutier asked if the landfill and excavation threshold is applied cumulative. Mr. Lien answered that fill and
excavation are considered separately. He emphasized that the only change proposed for this section is the addition of the
words “in all locations throughout the City of Edmonds.”
Board Member Reed said he would vote no on the motion; not because he is opposed to most of the changes, but because he
would like to remove the proposed adjustments to the flexible thresholds. He said he sees no need to eliminate the SEPA
requirement when it is not a costly or lengthy step in the development process yet it affords additional protection for
surrounding property owners. Board Member Cloutier expressed his belief that the true impact of adjusting the flexible
thresholds would be minimal. On the other hand, a potential developer may find the area more attractive because there
would be a little less paperwork to fill out.
Vice Chair Lovell observed that the majority of the proposed amendments are intended to make the current SEPA
requirements consistent with the WAC and RCW, which is required by State Law. As the Board discussed, changing the
threshold levels would have had minimal impact on projects that have occurred since 2004. Given that the City is trying to
encourage economic development in the Medical/Highway 99 Activity Center and Highway 99 Corridor, the Board agreed
earlier to consider adjustments to the flexible thresholds. He said he still supports this direction and would vote in favor of
the motion to move the amendments forward to the City Council with a recommendation of approval.

PUBLIC HEARING ON PROPOSED UPDATES TO THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN PURPOSE, EFFECT AND
CONTEXT STATEMENTS, AND HEARING EXAMINER COMPREHENSIVE PLAN REVIEW
REQUIREMENTS
Mr. Chave recalled that the Commission previously discussed the proposed amendments to the introductory sections of the
Comprehensive Plan addressing the plan’s purpose and scope. He said that, as previously noted, the reasons for making the
changes include:
The region, through the Puget Sound Regional Council (PSRC), adopted Vision 2040 in 2008. The document was
updated in 2009 to provide new guidance and a framework for planning in the Puget Sound Region.
Snohomish County Tomorrow is in the process of updating the countywide planning policies to be consistent with
Vision 2040.
The City’s Comprehensive Plan has been updated to include a new Community Sustainability Element, which provides a
central framework for the plan.
Some of the discussion in the City’s Comprehensive Plan is out of date, specifically the introductory sections on scope,
purpose, effect of plan and state and regional context.
Mr. Chave reminded the Board that the City Council directed them to update the various introductory sections (purpose,
effect and context statements). He noted that some of the language can be traced back to the original Comprehensive Plan,
which was adopted as part of the City’s Development Code. When GMA was adopted, the City revised the plan and made it
a separate document. However, some sections were not adequately updated to fit within the context of the GMA. Some of
the language in the Comprehensive Plan talks about code provisions that have been superseded by other processes such as
the Capital Facilities Element. For example, having the Hearing Examiner make legislative decisions is out of date and does
not separate the powers of the legislative authority (City Council) and the quasi-judicial authority (generally the Hearing
Examiner). The intent is to bring these sections up to date with current City practices.
Vice Chair Lovell observed that a lot of language from Vision 2040 was inserted into the draft language. Mr. Chave said
staff’s goal was to provide context and identify the high-level goals and statements from the Vision 2040 Plan so the casual
reader would have some idea of what the regional vision talks about. This is important because local plans must be
consistent with and ultimately implement the regional vision. Vice Chair Lovell said he finds the excerpts from Vision 2040
to be applicable to the City. He specifically referred to the language related to development patterns (Page 7), which
supports the policies called out in the Community Sustainability Element.
Board Member Reed asked staff to respond to the question of whether or not it is appropriate for the Hearing Examiner to
consider consistency with the Comprehensive Plan as part of his/her decision. He recalled that Finis Tupper submitted a
statement regarding this issue, which was read into the record at the Board’s May 12th meeting. Mr. Chave responded that
the Comprehensive Plan is a legislative document that establishes goals and a vision for the City. As required by GMA, the
City has adopted development regulations that are intended to implement the Comprehensive Plan, and these regulations are
used by the Hearing Examiner to review projects. The development regulations must be consistent with the Comprehensive
Plan. He explained that because the Comprehensive Plan is intended to provide a balance of goals and policies, it would be
nearly impossible to find that a project is absolutely consistent with each and every one. The appropriate balance for the City
is reflected in their adopted Development Code. The City would essentially be mixing the legislative and quasi-judicial
standards for review if they were to look at the overall Comprehensive Plan policies and goals while reviewing projects for
compliance with the Development Code. He further explained that GMA requires that comprehensive plans set the policies
and guidelines, but the development regulations are intended to implement the goals and policies in comprehensive plans.
Cities must use their development regulations to evaluate projects.
Board Member Cloutier referred to Item A.4.c (Page 3) and explained that the Board previously discussed the proposed
amendment that would change “views” to “public views.” He suggested staff explain why this change is being proposed.
Mr. Chave explained that the City has taken the general approach that the overall height limits and bulk restrictions are the

From: Kernen Lien, Associate Planner
Subject: ECDC 20.15A Update: SEPA Rules
_____________________________________________________________________________
State Environmental Policy Act
Washington’s State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA) was first adopted in 1971. Among other
things, the law requires all state and local governments within the state to:
“Utilize a systematic, interdisciplinary approach which will insure the integrated use of the
natural and social sciences and the environmental design arts in planning and in decision
making which may have an impact on man’s environment;” and
Ensure that “…environmental amenities and values will be given appropriate consideration
in decision making along with economic and technical considerations…” [RCW
43.21C.030.(2)(a) and (2)(b)]
The policies and goals in SEPA supplement those in existing authorizations of all branches of
government of Washington State, including state agencies, counties, cities, districts, and public
corporations. Any governmental action may be conditioned or denied pursuant to SEPA [RCW
43.21C.060].
The environmental review process in SEPA is designed to work with other regulations to provide
a comprehensive review of a proposal. Most regulations focus on particular aspects of a
proposal, while SEPA requires the identification and evaluation of probable impacts for all
elements of the environment. Combining the review processes of SEPA and other laws reduces
duplication and delay by combining study needs, combining comment periods and public
notices, and allowing agencies, applicants, and the public to consider all aspects of a proposal at
the same time. Proposal can be either project proposals (new construction, fill and grade, etc.) or
non project proposals (Comprehensive plans, Zoning, Development regulations, etc.).
MEMORANDUM
Packet Page 112 of 163
ECDC 20.15A Update July 27, 2010 City Council Memorandum Page 2 of 5
City of Edmonds SEPA Regulations: ECDC 20.15A
The City of Edmonds SEPA regulations are codified in Edmonds Community Development
Code (ECDC) 20.15A. The City’s original SEPA regulations were adopted under Ordinance
1855 in 1976. In 1984, the City adopted Ordinance No. 2461 which created ECDC 20.15A in
order to come into compliance with the new (at that time) SEPA rules in WAC 197-11 and
model SEPA ordinance in WAC 173-806. The ECDC 20.15A the City uses today is essentially
the same ordinance that was adopted 25 years ago having under gone only four minor
amendments in that time.
ECDC 20.15A is being reviewed as part of the City’s comprehensive review of its development
regulations. Due to changes in the RCW’s, WAC’s, and the City’s own code, ECDC 20.15A is
long over due for an update. Below is an of outline items and issues that have been considered
under this review.
1. Adoption by reference.
ECDC 20.15A adopts significant portions of WAC 197-11 (SEPA rules) by reference.
Sections of WAC 197-11 have been added and/or removed since the City adopted Ordinance
2461 in 1984, particularly in regards to SEPA and GMA integration. This update reviewed
changes in WAC 197-11 and the adoption lists in ECDC 20.15A to ensure the City is up-to-
date and compliant with state regulations.
2. Model code.
ECDC 20.15A is largely based off the model code in WAC 173-806. As with WAC 197-11,
there have been changes to WAC 173-806 since 1984. This update reviewed WAC 173-806
and made updates to ECDC 20.15A where appropriate to ensure the City is up-to-date and
compliant with state regulations.
3. Consistency.
As with the state rules, Edmonds Community Development Code has under gone a number
of amendments since 1984. This update reviewed ECDC 20.15A to ensure it remains
consistent with the rest of the City’s development regulations.
4. Categorical exemptions - Flexible thresholds.
State SEPA rules allow local jurisdictions to modify the categorically exempt threshold
levels for certain minor new construction activities. The City of Edmonds had previously
only modified one of these flexible thresholds. These activities and their thresholds are as
follows:
a. The construction or location of any residential structures of four dwelling units. Can be
modified up to 20 dwelling units.
b. The construction of a barn, loafing shed, farm equipment storage building, produce
storage or packing structure, or similar agricultural structure, covering 10,000 square feet,
and to be used only by the property owner or his or her agent in the conduct of farming
the property. This exemption shall not apply to feed lots. Does not apply in Edmonds.
Packet Page 113 of 163
ECDC 20.15A Update July 27, 2010 City Council Memorandum Page 3 of 5
c. The construction of an office, school, commercial, recreational, service or storage
building with 4,000 square feet of gross floor area, and with associated parking facilities
designed for twenty automobiles. Can be modified up to 12,000 square feet and 40
automobiles.
d. The construction of a parking lot designed for twenty automobiles. Can be modified up
to 40 automobiles.
e. Any landfill or excavation of 100 cubic yards throughout the total lifetime of the fill or
excavation; and any fill or excavation classified as a Class I, II, or III forest practice
under RCW 76.09.050 or regulations thereunder. The City increased this threshold up to
500 cubic yards in 1984 under Ordinance No. 2461.
The Planning Board undertook a thorough review of the flexible thresholds which is
discussed in the following section.
5. Climate change.
How to evaluate and mitigate climate change impacts through the SEPA process is a subject
that is garnering a lot of attention. The Climate Action Team’s SEPA Implementation
Working Group released a report in 2009 in an attempt to clarify how considerations of
climate change should be incorporated into environmental review and decision making under
SEPA. The report was anything but definitive. There was no strong consensus within the
Implementation Working Group, and thus no real strong recommendations, other than
Ecology should look into this and develop guidelines.
The Washington State Department of Ecology released draft guidance on addressing
greenhouse gas emissions in May 2010. The guidance essentially refers SEPA practitioners
to studies and analyses that have been conducted across the U.S. without providing any clear
standard of analysis. The guidance from Ecology goes on to state:
If a lead agency develops a standard significance threshold, it will need to make a policy
judgment about where the line should be drawn distinguishing “significant” adverse
environmental impacts — including impacts remaining after any required or voluntary
mitigation – from those that are not. This judgment must be based on scientific
information and other factual data as well as follow the threshold determination criteria in
WAC 197-11-330. The alternative is to make a significance determination on a case-by-
case basis.
The City has begun laying the groundwork for addressing climate change impacts via the
SEPA process through the adoption of a Sustainability Element in the City’s Comprehensive
Plan and the development of a Climate Change Action Plan. Within the Sustainability
Element and Climate Change Action Plan, the City has started developing the policies that
establishes the foundation for the City to begin developing SEPA regulations to evaluate
and/or mitigate impacts of climate change. Additionally the City conducted a Greenhouse
Gas Inventory in 2008 that may be used to develop SEPA significance threshold levels.
Climate change is a complex issue that many jurisdictions throughout the state and nation are
grappling with. This phase of the SEPA update focuses on technical updates to ensure the
City’s code is consistent with the state regulations. With these updates in place, the City can
begin developing a program for analyzing and mitigating climate change through the SEPA
Packet Page 114 of 163
ECDC 20.15A Update July 27, 2010 City Council Memorandum Page 4 of 5
process. Developing such a program will take some time and can be incorporated into ECDC
20.15A at a future date.
Categorical Exemption - Flexible Thresholds
Determining the environmental impact of a development involves the context and intensity of the
development and does not lend itself to a formula or quantifiable test (WAC 197-11-794). The
context may vary with the physical setting. Intensity depends on the magnitude and duration of
an impact. The same proposal may have a significant impact in one location but not in another
(WAC 197-11-330). For instance a three-story, six-unit multi-family residential development in
the bowl of Edmonds may impact the views (scenic resources being one of the elements of the
environment of WAC 197-11-444 reviewed by SEPA) of several residences and have the
potential for an impact. Whereas the same development in an RM zone along Highway 99 is less
likely to have any impacts, particularly to views. With this in mind, the Planning Board
reviewed the flexible threshold levels for categorical exemptions and discussed a number of
options for the flexible thresholds, including:
1. Leave the levels at the minimums established by WAC 197-11-800(1)(b),
2. Increase all, or a portion of the levels, for the entire City,
3. Establish different threshold levels for different comprehensive plan designations,
4. Establish different threshold levels for different zones, or
5. Establish different threshold levels considering zoning and comprehensive plan
designation.
After considering a number of alternatives, the Planning Board proposed to increase the
categorical exemption thresholds for the Medical/Highway 99 Activity Center and the Highway
99 Corridor as defined by the City of Edmonds Comprehensive Plan (See Attachment 1 for map
of area).
The Medical/Highway 99 Activity Center is intended to encourage the development of a
pedestrian and transit oriented area focused on two master planned developments, Stevens
Hospital and Edmonds-Woodway High School, with a related high-intensity development
corridor along Highway 99. One of the goals identified in the comprehensive plan for the
Medical/Highway 99 Activity Center is “to expand the economic and tax base of the City of
Edmonds by providing incentives for business and commercial redevelopment in a planned
activity center.” The Highway 99 Corridor is a narrow strip of retail and commercial uses with
some multi-family development along the fringes of the corridor. Like the Medical/Highway 99
Activity Center, the Highway 99 Corridor is an area the City is looking to encourage economic
development and raising the thresholds that trigger SEPA review may be one way to simplify the
process for developers within these two areas.
The proposal for the flexible threshold levels as detailed in ECDC 20.15A.090.B is:
1. For landfills and excavations in WAC 197-11-800(1)(b)(v) up to 500 cubic yards in all
locations throughout the City of Edmonds. (This same threshold level has been in place
since 1984. Clarifying language was added that it applies throughout the City.)

ECDC 20.15A Update July 27, 2010 City Council Memorandum Page 5 of 5
2. The table below establishes the City’s exempt level for minor new construction under
WAC 197-11-800(1)(b)(i) through WAC 197-11-800(1)(b)(v) for all property located
within the Highway 99 Corridor and the Medical/Highway 99 Activity Center as defined
in the City of Edmonds Comprehensive Plan.

20.15A.100 Categorical exemptions – DeterminationUse of exemptions.
A. When the city receives an application for a license or, in the case of governmental
proposals a department initiates a proposal, the responsible official shall determine
whether the license and/or the proposal is exempt. The determination that a proposal
is exempt shall be final and not subject to administrative review. If a proposal is
exempt, none of the procedural requirements of this chapter shall apply to the
proposal. The city shall not require completion of an environmental checklist for an
exempt proposal.
B. In determining whether or not a proposal is exempt the responsible official shall make
certain the proposal is properly defined and shall identify the governmental license
required. If a proposal includes exempt and nonexempt actions, the responsible
official shall determine the lead agency even if the license application that triggers the
consideration is exempt.
C. If a proposal includes both exempt and nonexempt actions, the city may authorize
exempt actions prior to compliance with the procedural requirements of this chapter,
except that:
1. The city shall not give authorization for:
a. Any nonexempt action;
b. Any action that would have an adverse environmental impact; or
c. Any action that would limit the choice of reasonable alternatives.
2. The city may withhold approval of any permit, application or proposal, the basis
of which is an exempt action that would lead to modification of the physical
environment, when such modification would serve no purpose if the nonexempt
actions were not approved.
3. The city may withhold approval of any permit, application or proposal, the basis
of which is an exempt action that would lead to substantial financial expenditures
by a private applicant when the expenditures would serve no purpose if the
nonexempt actions were not approved.
20.15A.110 Determination – Review at conceptual stage.
A. If the city’s only action on a proposal is a decision on a building permit or other
licenses that requires detailed project plans and specifications, the applicant may
Packet Page 124 of 163
ECDC 20.15A Update – Planning Board Recommendation Page 8 of 22
request in writing that the city conduct environmental review prior to submission of
the detailed plans and specifications.
B. In addition to the environmental documents an applicant shall submit the following
information for early environmental review:
1. A copy of any permit or license application;
2. Other information as the responsible official may determine.
20.15A.120 Threshold determinations – Environmental checklist.
A. Except as provided in subsection (E) of this section, Aa completed environmental
checklist, in the form provided in WAC 197-11-960, shall be filed at the same time as
an application for a permit, license, certificate or other approval not specifically
exempted by this chapter; except, a checklist is not needed if the city and applicant
agree an EIS is required, SEPA compliance has been completed, or SEPA compliance
has been initiated by another agency. The city shall use the environmental checklist
to determine the lead agency, and if the city is the lead agency, for making the
threshold determination. The checklist shall be in the form of WAC 197-11-960 with
such additions that may be required by the responsible official in accordance with
WAC 197-11-906(4).
B.A checklist is not needed if the city and the applicant agree an EIS is required, SEPA
compliance has been completed, or SEPA compliance has been initiated by another
agency.
C.B. For private proposals, the applicant is required to complete the environmental
checklist. The city may provide assistance as necessary. For city proposals the
department initiating the proposal shall complete the environmental checklist for that
proposal.
D.C. The city may decide to complete all or part of the environmental checklist for a
private proposal, if any of the following occurs:
1. The city has technical information on a question or questions that is unavailable to
the private applicant; or
2. The applicant has provided inaccurate information on previous proposals or on
proposals currently under consideration; or
3. On the request of the applicant.
E.D. The applicant shall pay to the city the actual costs of providing information under
paragraphs DC(2) and DC(3) of this section.
E. For projects submitted as planned actions under ECDC 20.04.003.B, the city shall use
its existing environmental checklist form or may modify the environmental checklist
form as provided in WAC 197-11-315. The modified environmental checklist form
may be prepared and adopted along with or as part of a planned action ordinance; or
developed after the ordinance is adopted. In either case, a proposed modified
environmental checklist form must be sent to the Department of Ecology to allow at
least a thirty-day review.
Packet Page 125 of 163
ECDC 20.15A Update – Planning Board Recommendation Page 9 of 22
20.15A.130 Threshold determinations – Mitigated DNS.
A. The responsible official may issue a determination of nonsignificance (DNS) based
on conditions attached to the proposal by the responsible official or on changes to, or
clarifications of, the proposal made by the applicant.
B. An applicant may request in writing early notice of whether a DS is likely. The
request must:
1. Follow submission of a permit application and environmental checklist for a
nonexempt proposal for which the department is lead agency; and
2. Precede the city’s actual threshold determination for the proposal.
C. The responsible official’s response to the request for early notice shall:
1. Be written;
1.2. State whether the city currently considers issuance of a DS likely and, if
so, indicate the general or specific areas of concern that are leading the city to
consider a DS; and
2.3. State that the applicant may change or clarify the proposal to mitigate the
indicated impacts, and may revise the environmental checklist and/or permit
application as necessary to reflect the changes or clarifications.
D. As much as possible, the city should assist the applicant with identification of impacts
to the extent necessary to formulate mitigation measures.
D.E. When an applicant submits a changed or clarified proposal, along with a revised
environmental checklist, the city shall base its threshold determination on the changed
or clarified proposal.
1. If the city indicated specific mitigation measures in its response to the request for
early notice, and the applicant changed or clarified the proposal to include those
specific mitigation measures, the city shall issue and circulate a determination of
nonsignificance if the city determines that no additional information or mitigation
measures are required.
2. If the city indicated areas of concern, but did not indicate specific mitigation
measures that would allow it to issue a DNS, the city shall make the threshold
determination, issue a DNS or DS as appropriate.
3. The applicant’s proposed mitigation measures, clarifications, changes or
conditions must be in writing and must be specific. For example, proposals to
“control noise” or “prevent stormwater runoff” are inadequate, whereas proposals
to “muffle machinery to X decibel” or “construct 200-foot stormwater retention
pond at Y location” are adequate.
4. Mitigation measures which justify issuance of a mitigated DNS may be
incorporated in the DNS by reference to agency staff reports, studies or other
documents.
Packet Page 126 of 163
ECDC 20.15A Update – Planning Board Recommendation Page 10 of 22
E.F. The city shall not act upon a proposal for which a mitigated DNS has been issued
for 15 days after the date of issuanceA mitigated DNS is issued under either WAC
197-11-340(2), requiring a fourteen-day comment period and public notice, or WAC
197-11-355, which may require no additional comment period beyond the comment
period on the notice of application..
F.G. Mitigation measures incorporated in the mitigated DNS shall be deemed
conditions of approval of the licensing or permit decision and may be enforced in the
same manner as any term or condition of the permit or enforced in any matter
specifically prescribed by the city. Failure to comply with the designated mitigation
measures shall be grounds for suspension and/or revocation of any license or permit
issued.
G.H. If the city’s tentative decision on a permit or approval does not include mitigation
measures that were incorporated in a mitigated DNS for the proposal, the city should
evaluate the threshold determination to assure consistency with WAC 197-11-340(3)
(a) relating to the withdrawal of a DNS.
H.I. The city’s written response under subsection C of this section shall not be
construed as a determination of significance. In addition, preliminary discussion of
clarification or changes to a proposal, as opposed to a written request for early notice,
shall not bind the city to consider the clarifications or changes in its threshold
determination.

First Reading: Proposed Ordinance Amending Chapter 3.65
Edmonds City Council Meeting
Date:07/27/2010
Submitted By:Phil Williams Time:15 Minutes
Department:Public Works Type:
Review Committee:
Committee Action:
Information
Subject Title
FIRST READING: Proposed Ordinance to amend the provisions of Chapter 3.65 of the
Edmonds City Code relating to the Transportation Benefit District in order to expand the
functions and authority of the District to include the construction of thirty-seven (37)
transportation improvements, including the construction of walkways, intersection
improvements, street upgrades, traffic calming measures, corridor improvements,
pedestrian lighting, signalization installation and rebuild, and bicycle loop signage with the
proceeds of a Forty Dollar ($40) vehicle fee increase, if approved by the voters, and setting a
public hearing for August 3, 2010.
Recommendation from Mayor and Staff
Set a public hearing for August 3, 2010.
Previous Council Action
On November 18th, 2008 the Edmonds City Council passed Ordinance 3707 creating the Edmonds
Transportation Benefit District under Chapter 3.65 of the ECC and setting its purpose as providing
resources for the preservation and maintenance of the City's transportation system.
Narrative
When the Edmonds Transportation Benefit District (ETBD) was created in November, 2008 its
authorities were limited to the pursuit of funding and the use of that funding for the preservation
and maintenance of Edmonds transportation system including all transportation improvements
within City Rights-of-Way. The board of the ETBD now recommends their authorities be
expanded to include the ability to pursue voter approval to increase the local user fee (local license
fee) by $40 to pursue 37 separate transportation capital projects to address key system deficiencies
related to safety, congestion, and important pedestrian connections. These projects are specifically
described in Attachment 2.
Additional documents are attached in advance to allow the City Council, in their capacity as board
members of the ETBD to review additional actions to be taken at the City Council and ETBD
meetings to be held on August 3rd. This date would be the last opportunity for action to get the
proposed increase of $40 in the local transportation user fee on the November ballot.

vehicle tax fee of up to $20 per vehicle authorized by the Board in
accordance with RCW 82.80.140 shall be used solely for
transportation improvements that preserve, maintain and operate
the existing transportation infrastructure of the City, consistent
with the requirements of Chapter 36.73 RCW. Upon authorization
by the voters, additional funds from other taxes, fees, charges and
tolls or increases in these revenue sources may be utilized for the
construction of transportation improvements specifically described
in the proposition submitted to the voters. Funds raised from either
revenue source may be utilized for any lawful purpose under
Chapter 36.73 RCW; but all funds raised through the TBD shall be
expended only for the purposes specified, i.e.:
1. For the preservation, maintenance and operation of the
existing City street transportation improvement infrastructure or;
2. For projects specifically designated in a ballot proposition
approved by the voters and utilizing the funding source approved
by the voters.
Such improvements are intended to comply with the provisions of
the Growth Management Act and the City’s Comprehensive Plan
and reduce the risk of transportation facilities’ failure, improve
safety, continue the costs effectiveness of the City’s infrastructure
improvements and to encourage the optimum use of the
transportation system. Additional transportation improvements
project may be funded only after compliance with the provisions of
RCW 36.73.050(B) following notice, public hearing and enactment
of an additional authorizing ordinance.
Section 3. The Edmonds City Code Section 3.65.050 Dissolution of District is
Packet Page 148 of 163
{WSS804828.DOC;1\00006.900000\ } - 4 -
hereby amended to read as follows:
3.65.959 Dissolution of district.
The transportation district has been authorized to fulfill two
separate functions. Each function of the District shall expire and
be dissolved upon its completion.
1. Street preservation, maintenance and operation are
ongoing, long-term obligations of the City. In order to comply
with the dissolution requirement of RCW 36.73.050, a street
resurfacing cycle of 20 years was adopted and the district shall be
deemed authentically dissolved with respect to the function of
street preservation, maintenance and operation 20 years from the
effective date of the original ordinance No. 3707, to wit,
November 28, 2028.
2. Upon authorization by the voters, the additional
transportation improvements, specifically described in the
proposition shall be deemed authorized. In accordance with the
dissolution requirements of RCW 36.73.050, the powers, duties
and functions of the district shall be deemed dissolved with respect
to such voter approved projects when all indebtedness of the
districts with regard to such projects has been retired and all
transportation improvements described in such project list have
been completed. Upon dissolution with respect to these functions,
the voters’ authorization for funding to construct such funding
shall be deemed to automatically expire. Nothing herein shall be
interpreted to prohibit the Edmonds City Council on the
recommendation of the Edmonds Transportation Benefit District to
dissolve the district in whole or in part and/or reformulate it in
accordance with the provisions of Chapter 36.73.050.
Section 4. Severability

VOTER PAMPHLET -- EXPLANATORY STATEMENT
The Board of the Edmonds Transportation Benefit District has identified thirty-seven (37)
transportation improvement projects for funding through a voter authorized increase in the local
vehicle fee of Forty Dollars ($40.00) per vehicle. The 37 projects include construction of
walkways, pedestrian lighting improvements, intersection improvements, street upgrades, traffic
calming programs, and new signal construction and replacement in addition to resurfacing of city
streets to preserve their condition and reduce future maintenance costs. The additional revenue
guaranteed by the fees is dedicated to these projects and can be used for no other purpose. 99%
of the monies generated (the State Department of Licensing takes 1% to administer the program)
will be spent on projects to improve Edmonds local transportation system. A detailed list of the
improvements, their cost and priorities are contained in TBD Ordinance No. 2 and are available
upon request from the Edmonds City Clerk and are posted on the City’s web site. The vehicle
fee will expire when the improvements are constructed and debt service or financing used to
fund improvements are paid in full, unless sooner terminated by the TBD.

1938 Ford Fire Engine
Edmonds City Council Meeting
Date:07/27/2010
Submitted By:Kim Karas
Submitted For:Phil Williams Time:15 Minutes
Department:Public Works Type:Action
Review Committee:
Committee Action:
Information
Subject Title
Discussion and potential action regarding the 1938 Ford fire engine.
Recommendation from Mayor and Staff
Recommend that the Mayor sign a Chattel Deed (Exhibit 1), returning the 1938 Ford fire engine to
the Edmonds Fire Safety Foundation per §C-2. of the Transfer Agreement (Exhibit 2) signed in
February 2004.
Previous Council Action
In February 2004, authorization was given to the Mayor to sign a Transfer Agreement (Exhibit 2)
with the Edmonds Fire Safety Foundation, allowing the City of Edmonds to store, use and display
a 1938 Ford fire engine (Model FIREEX VIN#:1184892). In April 2010, Item was continued to
discuss at a later date.
Narrative
The 1938 Ford fire engine has been displayed at the Edmonds Fire Department since February
2004 when a Transfer Agreement (Exhibit 2) was signed by the City to maintain and store the
engine. In December 2009, the Edmonds Fire Department was transferred to Fire District 1. The
District is not able to store the vehicle on behalf of the City at Fire Station 17 any longer due to
Fire District 1's apparatus storage needs. A suggestion by the Edmonds Fire Foundation was to
store the fire truck at the old public works site on 2nd and Dayton. Currently, at the 2nd and
Dayton site, no extra storage space is available. Art Works leases 3 of the 5 storage bays leaving 2
storage bays (50x60) for city use. The space is used to house multiple city departments, treatment
plant, parks, water/sewer, streets, parks and recreation, police impound overflow storage, and a
staging areas for current and future city projects (treatment plant upgrade and Hwy 99 lighting
projects). Emergency supplies for the Red Cross are also stored inside the storage area.
The Transfer Agreement (Exhibit 2) required, in §C-2 that the City offer to transfer the 1938 Ford
fire engine back to the Edmonds Fire Safety Foundation if, in its sole discretion, it is no longer
willing or able to maintain or store the engine. Therefore, the City Attorney has drafted a Chattel
Deed (Exhibit 1), which completes the return of the Fire Engine to the Edmonds Fire Safety
Foundation as the 2004 Transfer Agreement (Exhibit 2) provides.
