rRIA 8 5. PRESENTATION BY WRIA 8
Jane Lamensdorf - Bucher, WRIA 8 Watershed Coordinator, provided a presentation on the Interlocal
Collaboration to Conserve Salmon. She began by explaining under the Federal Endangered Species Act
several species of salmon were listed as threatened including Puget Sound Chinook in March 1999 and
Bull Trout in June 1998, and Puget Sound Coho were a candidate species for a threatened listing. She
explained there were four reasons salmon were in trouble, 1) harvest (an issue controlled by the State and
Tribes), 2) hatcheries (an issue controlled by the State and Tribes), 3) hydropower dams (an Eastern
Washington issue), and 4) habitat degradation and loss (a local issue).
Ms. Lamensdorf - Bucher explained habitat was a local issue because local governments control land use
decisions. To address this issue, 25 cities and 2 counties (King and Snohomish Counties) within WRIA 8
joined to form the Lake Washington/Cedar /Sammamish Forum. The 27 local governments signed an
Interlocal Agreement to jointly fund salmon planning. An elected official from each government serves
on the Forum, Councilmember Petso for Edmonds, and King County was hired as the service provider to
assist. She explained WRIA 8 also had a Steering Committee, a multi - stakeholder body comprised of
local elected leaders, business and community groups, water and sewer districts, scientists, citizens, and
representatives from State agencies. Ms. Lamensdorf - Bucher described the model for plan development
which includes the Steering Committee overseeing development of the plan and the Forum approving the
plan following presentation to each local Council.
Ms. Lamensdorf - Bucher described the progress thus far, explaining there were four steps in conservation
salmon planning in WRIA 8, the first two steps have been accomplished, Reconnaissance/Habitat
Limiting Factors Report, and developing a Near Term Action Agenda for Salmon Conservation. She
explained the preparation of the Reconnaissance/Habitat Limiting Factors Report included a group of
scientists who considered the factors of decline for salmon habitat. The purpose of preparing the Near
Term Action Agenda was to offer a range of voluntary actions to address factors of habitat decline and
protect and restore salmon habitat. She explained for the habitat protection and restoration projects in
the Near Term Action Agenda, the watershed was divided into 13 subareas; Edmonds was in the
nearshore subarea. The Near Term Action Agenda also provided guidance for policies and regulations,
education and public outreach recommendations, suggestions for monitoring and adaptive management,
and implementation resources such as model ordinances and possible funding sources.

Ms. Lamensdorf - Bucher reviewed the next steps in WRIA 8 salmon conservation planning, explaining
the Strategic Watershed Assessment (what more do we need to know ?) was nearing completion, and
efforts were underway on the Draft Conservation Plan (what should we do in the future ?). The Strategic
Assessment models habitat conditions in the watershed to illustrate what a fish encounters. This allowed
prioritization of what needed to be done and compiled a common data base of habitat conditions. She
noted 192 reports have been combined and 54 experts have worked on this assessment.
Ms. Lamensdorf - Bucher explained this information would then be used to develop the Conservation Plan
including the most gain for the least pain, determine how the challenge can be shouldered together, and
justify projects for funding by Sound Transit, Brightwater, etc. She concluded that together local
governments could improve the watershed for both salmon and citizens. She emphasized the importance
of 27 local governments participating in this unified planning process. She cited the benefits of regional
cooperation including common science and providing local information to the Puget Sound Nearshore
Ecosystem Restoration Project and others, noting that collaboration gets farther than competition.
Ms. Lamensdorf - Bucher advised a boat tour is scheduled on October 3 and October 17 of selected sites
along the nearshore including Edmonds. She encouraged Councilmembers to participate, noting it would
be a good opportunity.for dialogue and to better understand how processes work in the nearshore.
Councilmember Petso inquired what the Conservation Plan would require of private property owners
with stream -side property. Ms. Lamensdorf - Bucher answered development of the Conservation Plan was
in the early stages and that information was not yet available. They expect to have a prioritized list of
actions /recommendations by year end which would be presented to the Steering Committee. She
anticipated a draft plan would be available by late March 2004 for public comment and review.
Council President Earling asked whether there was a weighted vote on policy decisions or one vote per
jurisdiction. Ms. Lamensdorf - Bucher answered via the Interlocal Agreement, the goal was to have
consensus. If consensus could not be reached on key decisions, decisions would be made on the same
basis used to determine the cost share, a formula based on population, geographic area, and assessed
value. She noted thus far consensus had been reached on all decisions.
Councilmember Wilson asked what local jurisdictions' responsibility would be once the policy document
was adopted. Ms. Lamensdorf - Bucher answered it would depend on what the jurisdictions wanted to do.
After the Steering Committee made its recommendations to the Forum, the Plan would go to each
jurisdiction and each City and County Council would review the Plan via its own processes. She hoped
the end result would be a concurrence document where, for example, jurisdictions would agree to
accomplish certain actions.
Councilmember Wilson asked whether each jurisdiction would need to adopt all policies and
implementation procedures and would it be successful if all jurisdictions did not adopt the same
guidelines /regulations. Ms. Lamensdorf - Bucher answered consideration would be given to what it would
take to reach success, how many jurisdictions, how much land would need to be covered, etc. in order to
reach success. She explained one of the benefits of doing the model of the watershed was that different
alternatives could be evaluated in the model to see the results.
6. AUDIENCE COMMENTS
f late d Bob Gregg, 16550, 76"' Avenue W, Edmonds, referred to Agenda Item 7, Work Session on Modulated
ulations Roof Regulations, pointing out there was a frequent misconception that Edmonds currently had
modulated roof regulations which it did not. He explained the City currently had regulations for pitched
Edmonds City Council Approved Minutes
September 23, 2003
Page 3
roofs and flat roofs, and flat roofs above 25 feet must be part of an approved modulated design, but were
not a modulated roof.
aterfront I Al Rutledge, 7101 Lake Ballinger Way, Edmonds, relayed waterfront businesses' concern with the
usmesses
decrease in revenue they have been experiencing.
Ray Martin, 18704 94th Avenue W, Edmonds, expressed concern with the proposed levy lid lift,
`' Lid Lift commenting Edmonds residents were already overtaxed, services had been diminished, and percentage of
managers to workers was climbing. He alleged excessive spending and waste continued despite citizen
input. He was concerned with library costs and excessive budgets that are rubberstamped by the Council.
He asserted that the City's outstanding Police and Fire Departments were being used as political pawns
and their budgets should be the top priority. He suggested the title of the levy lid lift be the "Tax and
Spend Levy," commenting it had the same chance of winning as the latte tax vote in Seattle. He alleged
the Public Safety Departments had been pressured to support "Tax and Spend" candidates and suggested
citizens ignore the misleading endorsements and consider those without the endorsement signs.
Modulated Roger Hertrich, 1020 Puget Drive, Edmonds, referred to the comment in the agenda memo regarding
Roof Agenda Item 7, Work Session on Modulated Roof Regulations, that as long as a building had enough
Regulations modulation, horizontal and/or vertical, the ADB could approve a building of up to 30 -feet tall. He
recalled when he moved to Edmonds, citizens were reacting to the number of condominiums being built
on 5th Avenue and due to the community's wishes, building heights were lowered. However, in 1997,
heights began to increase, resulting in the demise of what he deemed the most loved character of
Edmonds, low buildings in the downtown area. Although the intent of the 1997 change was to achieve
some variety, that did not occur. He alleged the Council supported the Edmonds Alliance for Economic
Development's efforts to increase building heights downtown to 40 feet and increase the density of
downtown Edmonds, the opposite of what he believed citizens wanted.
Modulated 7, WORK SESSION ON MODULATED ROOF REGULATIONS
Roof
Regulations Mayor Haakenson explained this item was before the Council, not as an attempt to achieve 40 -foot height
limits, but because of the numerous inquiries regarding why buildings can be up to 30 feet, can be built
lot line to lot line, or commercial space is constructed on the ground floor of a building in the BC zone.
Mayor Haakenson noted that requiring commercial space on the ground floor in the BC zone pushed
businesses outside the retail core and the buildings are often vacant. He was concerned that lot -line to
lot -line construction in the BC zone did not allow light or open or green space. His intent in bringing this
issue to the Council was to consider the existing code and illustrate buildings that had been constructed
since 1997 when the code was changed to allow design features other than a 4:12 pitched roof to achieve
the maximum height. He noted that although Mr. Hertrich stated height creep began in 1997, height
creep actually began in 1981 when the 25 foot height limit was increased an additional 5 feet for a
pitched roof of 4:12 or greater. He summarized that buildings 30 feet tall had been allowed since 1981.
He did not expect Council action; this was purely an informational item.
Senior Planner Steve Bullock explained he planned not only to show development that had occurred in
the last six years but also development that occurred prior to the City adopting its first zoning code. He
displayed a photograph of Main Street looking left from 5"' — the Beeson Building and others. He
identified a building constructed in the early 1910's that remained until the 1950's — the Olympic Hotel.
He displayed an aerial photograph up Main Street identifying several buildings that were constructed in
many cases lot line to lot line, ranging in height from 1 -3 stories. He noted in most cases, particularly on
Main Street and 50', buildings were constructed to the sidewalk.

Mr. Bullock displayed another photograph of the same area, pointing out desirable architectural features
such as a prominent roof or cornice treatment. He noted pedestrian amenities such as awnings and
interaction between the development and pedestrians either via physical or visual access to the building.
He further noted the mixture of materials and architectural features, cornice and roof treatments, and
details in ornamentation and trimming and fenestration used on buildings. He displayed examples of
older buildings in the City that illustrate those architectural features.
Mr. Bullock displayed a photograph looking north on 5"' Avenue toward the fountain, pointing out much
of the older development were small buildings and although they had rather flat facades, they provided a
great deal of diversity and interest on the street. He noted as more people moved to Edmonds and more
housing was constructed, the City adopted its first zoning code in 1956. At that time, buildings in the
downtown commercial core were allowed to be 4 stories or 45 -feet tall. Later in 1964, the building
height was modified to 35 -feet or 3 stories. He noted from 1964 through 1981, 35 -feet or 3 stories was
the height limit in downtown Edmonds. He displayed an example of a building similar to much of the
construction that occurred between 1956 and 1981, simple boxy buildings without a great deal of
architectural ornamentation with the upper story built to the top of the roof at the height limit.
Mr. Bullock explained in 1981, due to concern with the style of buildings being constructed in the City,
both the height and the boxy style of buildings, a major rewrite of the City's Development Code was
adopted, establishing the height limits for downtown at 25 feet with the possibility of 30 feet with a
pitched roof of 4:12 or greater. In 1981, essentially a 30 foot height limit was established for the
downtown area, stated as 25 feet plus an additional five feet with a pitched roof of 4:12 or greater.
Mr. Bullock explained there were two building approaches that resulted from this zoning criteria. First,
buildings constructed to the 25 foot height limit and a 4:12 pitched hip roof around the perimeter of the
building was used to attain the additional 5 feet. He noted there was a great deal of this type of
development in the downtown area. A second approach was a building constructed to 25 feet topped
with an element with the 4:12 gable as an architectural element or possibly a series of gables or a
sawtooth top. He noted these types of buildings were the norm for approximately 20 years. At that time,
there was concern that too much of the same buildings were being constructed and there was interest in a
downtown with diversity and interesting architectural features. Therefore, Section 16.50, which
addressed the BC zone and development standards for the BC zone, was modified to allow buildings with
design features other than a 4:12 pitched roof to achieve the maximum height of 30 -feet in the BC zone.
He explained the change allowed buildings up to 25 feet with an additional 5 feet for a pitched roof of
3:12 or greater or an approved modulated design.
Mr. Bullock displayed a photograph of the first building that utilized the revised code amendment. He
noted the Architectural Design Board (ADB) who was responsible for approving building designs, were
cautious in their approach and were uncertain how they were to apply the change to the code. In this
instance, the result was a building with a barrel vault on the east side of the building and a series of shed
roofs on the west side of the building. He noted behind the barrel vault and the shed roofs was a portion
of the building that had a flat roof over the 25 foot height limit where the mechanical equipment was
located but was completely screened by the perimeter building forms. The ADB approved the building
and the portion of the building over the 25 foot height limit that was flat was allowed because it was an
approved modulated design.
Mr. Bullock displayed a photograph of the second building to utilize the revised code section, a building
at Yd Avenue North and Bell Street. He explained the developer wanted a building that fit the urban
context of Edmonds downtown with an old town feel with square building facades and wanted a flat roof.

Their proposal was a building with a number of smaller, varied roof levels and the building moves in and
out from the front fagade. The ADB approved the building design, determining that the appearance of
different roof levels and in and out on the face of the building represented a modulated design. This
building was appealed to the City Council and the City Council upheld the ADB's decision that this was
an approved modulated design and complied with the City's 30 foot building height.
Mr. Bullock displayed a photograph of another building design approved by the ADB as an approved
modulated design, pointing out the movement of the fagade forward and back from the front property line
as well as up and down and the appearance that the roof moved up and down. He noted this building was
not appealed to the City Council and that was still the understanding and approach the ADB took in
reviewing projects — they considered whether a building qualified as an approved modulated design if
any portion of the building was proposed to be over 25 feet high that was less than a 3:12 pitch. He
displayed another view of the building, pointing out how the fagade moved up and down and forward and
back. Mr. Bullock concluded that only three buildings had been through the entire approval process and
construction completed since the 1997 change in ECDC 16.50.
Councilmember Wilson asked whether the draft design guidelines that had been prepared but not been
reviewed further might address some of the issues and concerns. Mr. Bullock agreed, noting there were
specific sections that addressed modulated buildings and walls. He cautioned if the code was too
prescriptive, the City would experience the type of building design that occurred between 1981 and 1997;
if the code remained subjective without a great deal of specificity, there would continue to be concern
and trepidation about what might be approved.
Councilmember Wilson inquired whether the ADB or Planning Board had misgivings regarding the way
the language was currently crafted or whether they had reservations regarding the appropriateness of the
approved buildings in terms of the setting and scale of downtown. Mr. Bullock responded the ADB was
very pleased with the projects that had been approved and constructed under this Code section. He noted
there were a number of new members on the ADB now, and some would like to have more specific
direction similar to design guidelines.
Councilmember Petso recalled Mr. Bullock mentioned in this presentation that certain older buildings in
downtown appeared more acceptable regardless of their height because they were smaller buildings and a
series of smaller buildings in a row provided a look that was smaller in scale. She noted each of the new
buildings were huge and asked what could be done to assist in achieving the smaller building appearance.
Mr. Bullock answered one thing the three buildings had in common was they had broken the building
into a series of smaller pieces to appear more like the older buildings. He displayed a photograph of one
of the older buildings, pointing out how the building was broken into several smaller pieces. Similarly,
the design of the new building may appear to be several different buildings because the elements of the
building have been recessed. He cited this as an example of the ADB working with applicants so that
buildings were modulated to break up the mass and size of buildings.
Councilmember Petso asked whether there was more that could be done in the City's regulations to
achieve more variation, noting the photograph of the three older buildings was significantly different in
appearance than the new buildings even with the modulation. Mr. Bullock answered the smaller sites
were the most difficult to develop as they could not reasonably provide the amount of parking that was
required. As a result, developers consolidate lots to have enough area to provide the parking the building
will require. He noted one larger building was a more efficient building practice, one foundation rather
than three separate foundations, therefore, simply as a matter of economics, developers were constructing
larger buildings. He referred to a project that had recently completed the design review process, on 50'
Edmonds City Council Approved Minutes
September 23, 2003
Page 6
and Walnut, explaining the architect and builder developed a design that appeared to be three distinct
buildings, from the materials used and the architectural style of the building. He noted they tried to
emulate the downtown style to a certain point while gaining the efficiencies of a larger building and
shared parking for one building rather than several smaller buildings.
Councilmember Petso asked how the 25 feet + the additional 5 feet were measured, noting many appear
to be taller than 30 feet. Mr. Bullock explained on sloped sites, staff determines the average grade of the
building pad. Therefore, on a sloped site, the average grade for the building footprint will be between the
lowest and highest point, which may result in a building appearing to be 20 feet tall on the high side and
35 -40 feet on the low side. However, measured from the average grade of that building footprint, he
assured the height would not be higher than 30 feet.
Councilmember Marin recalled in 1983 when he moved his business into the Harbor Building, he was
proud to have his business in that building. Although some may consider it an ugly box, there was merit
in a building such as that when the landscape of the downtown area was considered as a whole. He
acknowledged if all buildings were constructed in that style, it may be monotonous and not as good
looking. He described looking at buildings constructed in recent years, noting there was some marvelous
work being done in the past few years, buildings that were far superior in detail and quality of
workmanship that were amenities to the City. He noted the City contained architecture and design that
spanned many years from Victorian to boxes to elegant looking buildings constructed in the recent past.
Mayor Haakenson asked Mr. Bullock to address lot -line to lot -line development and commercial space
on the first floor issue. Mr. Bullock explained the code required the first 30 feet of depth of a building in
the downtown commercial zone, as measured from the sidewalk, to be dedicated to commercial uses. He
noted there were some provisions that allowed for drive aisles although the code was very `specific in
encouraging buildings to use alleys as their primary use of access. In instances where alley access was
not possible, a driveway could be accessed from the street and through the first 30 feet of depth. The
code did not allow parking or residential use in the first 30 feet of the first floor as measured from the
sidewalk in a commercial area. He displayed a photograph of the building lot across 5`h Avenue S from
Petosa's Grocer that has two floors of condominiums and commercial on the first floor, noting the
commercial space is often vacant. He noted further from the downtown core, the first floor commercial
spaces are frequently vacant. He explained the BC zone extended to Edmonds Street between 3rd and 5"';
commenting that as some of those properties were redeveloped and commercial uses were required on the
first floor, there was concern whether that space would be viable commercial space. The issue was
balancing sufficient commercial space against possibly refining the boundaries of the BC zone if those
commercial spaces were not viable and allowing the first floor to be used entirely for residential.
With regard to lot -line to lot -line development, Mr. Bullock noted this issue was also tied to the
boundaries of the BC zone. Where did the City want to encourage commercial development? If the
current boundaries were appropriate, he felt the lot -line to lot -line development was effective and
resulted in an active, pedestrian experience that would aid in the vitality of the downtown area. If the
boundaries of the BC zone was not appropriate and it deemed to be too spread out to be developed
effectively, consideration may need to be given to revising the boundaries of the BC zone.
Mayor Haakenson reiterated that his reason for bringing this to the Council was to illustrate to the
Council and public what had occurred with the development of roof lines over the past six years. He
explained his concern with requiring commercial space further from the downtown core, noting if that
remained vacant commercial space, consideration should be given to reducing the boundaries of the BC

zone or allowing residential on the first floor rather than requiring commercial space. He reiterated no
action was required, this was only intended as an update.
