Item D: Report Bids Opened July 7, 1997, for the 1997 Street Surface Treatment Program and Rejection
of Bids.
Council President Earling pointed out this agenda item requested approval to delay approximately 30
patching and resurfacing projects, and budget the funds for the overlay on 100th Avenue West. He noted
several Councilmembers had expressed interest in addressing the many projects that have been needed
and scheduled for a long time.
1997 Street COUNCIL PRESIDENT EARLING MOVED, SECONDED BY COUNCILMEMBER MYERS, TO
surface ACCEPT THE BID FROM JULY 7, 1997, TO IMPLEMENT THE 1997 STREET SURFACE
Treatment TREATMENT PROGRAM.
Program
In response to Councilmember Van Hollebeke's request for staff's rationale, City Engineer Jim Walker
explained 100th Avenue West, a federal aid project, was the primary project staff wished to complete
this year. Staff suggested deferral of the 1997 Street Surface Treatment Program into 1998 with an
expansion of the program that year.
Councilmember Van Hollebeke asked if 100th Avenue West was in dire need of resurfacing. Mr.
Walker explained arterials have always been given a higher priority because they deteriorate faster.
Although a secondary street may be in worse need, in three or four years, it would be in essentially the
same. condition and main arterials would be much worse. It is less expensive to do an overlay before a
great deal of corrective action is necessary.
Councilmember Miller observed most of the streets originally scheduled were in the Seaview area; his
perception was a number of these streets were approaching the need for a major repair. Mr. Walker
explained the Street Surface Treatment Program did not address major repairs; it was a maintenance -type
program. He noted this was an effort to stretch funds as far as possible. It was preferable to address
streets before they were in a deteriorating condition.
MOTION CARRIED.

3. AUDIENCE
as or Al Rutledge, 7101 Lake Ballinger Way, Edmonds, advised the next Friends of Athletics meeting
ewes would be July 23, 1997, at 7:00 p.m. He referred to an article in the Everett Herald in which Parks and
Recreation Manager Arvilla Ohlde stated the City needed more fields and funding. He noted there may
be a State-wide initiative. He advised Lynnwood would be taking over the Medic 7 program in 1999,
which would save cities $400,000 - $700,000. He reiterated his suggestion that a Salary Commission be
established.
Rich Demeroutis, 921 Pine Street, Edmonds, asked if any Councilmembers' streets would be
resurfaced. Councilmembers answered no. Mr. Demeroutis next questioned the figures provided by
Medic 7 Mayor Fahey regarding Medic 7 and provided written comments to the City Clerk.
Mayor Fahey explained the $97,000 collected via transport fees went directly to Medic 7. The City's
assessment is $397,000, excluding transport fees.
Mr. Demeroutis advised there was an article in The Edmonds Paper regarding items citizens could
legislate through an initiative process. He requested a copy of the legal opinion regarding this issue.
City Attorney Scott Snyder advised State Statute set forth a procedure for obtaining public records. His
legal advice included formal opinions which are distributed to the public and confidential legal advice
that is not. If Mr. Demeroutis submitted a written request, staff would honor the State Statute.
4. REPORT ON COUNCIL COMINUTTEE MEETINGS OF JULY 8,1997
unity Community Services Committee
ices Committee Chairperson Van Hollebeke described the items addressed by the Community Services
ttee Committee including an update on the gymnastics/youth fitness facility which has outgrown its facility
due to the success of the program. Through a cooperative effort with the City of Shoreline, the program
will move to the Shorewood High School gymnasium as an interim solution. The Committee directed
staff to make a progress presentation to the City Council this fall on the youth fitness program.
Mr. Van Hollebeke reported City Engineer Jim Walker and Treatment Plant Manager Steve Koho
provided an update on the workplan for backup power at the Wastewater Treatment Plant. The award of
a professional services contract for the WWTP backup power was approved on tonight's consent agenda.
The Committee discussed the existing unwieldy tree clearing permit process and staff proposed revisions
to the ordinance. This issue will be brought to the Council later this year for enactment in 1998.
The Committee next discussed public notice signs, including the alternative methods of posting public
signs such as providing "take away" information. The Committee directed staff to prepare a detailed
game plan which described the proposed posting method, information display, and a timetable for
implementation, with estimated 1998 budgetary impacts, and present this report to the Committee by
October.
Staff also updated the Committee on virtual reality, a topic initially discussed at the 1997 Council retreat.
Community Services Director Paul Mar advised a joint graduate class will be taught by the University of
Washington's School of Architecture and Human Interface Laboratory, probably in winter quarter 1998,
modeling the Edmonds downtown area.

Public Safety Public Safety Committee
Committee Committee Member White reported Judge Conroy presented statistics on the first half of 1997, noting
there had been an increase in revenue over the first half of last year. Police activity has increased,
including emphasis on enforcement in the newly annexed areas. Judge Conroy discussed disconcerting
factors in the County including a change in the Snohomish County Prosecutor's charging procedure
which results in some felony cases being charged as misdemeanors. Further, due to jail overcrowding,
the Snohomish County Jail has begun administratively releasing misdemeanor prisoners early. As a
result, some individuals who should be serving felony jail time are being released early.
A lease extension for the double wide trailer was discussed by the Committee and a three month
extension of the lease was approved on tonight's consent agenda. Also, Police Dog Rudy was retired and
sold to his former handler.
The Committee then discussed an interlocal agreement for police services with the Town of Woodway
which would provide an Edmonds Police Officer when a Woodway officer was not available. The City
would be compensated for such events. This matter was approved on tonight's consent agenda.
Finally, the committee was advised that Senior Officer Bonallo would be traveling to the National
School Resource Officer Conference; funds for his travel are provided by the Police Foundation and
other private funds.
Finance Finance Committee
Committee Committee Chairperson Nordquist reported the Finance Committee discussed the lease extension for the
double wide trailer and agreed to place the item on the July 15 consent agenda. City Clerk Sandy Chase
provided the Committee with an overview of gambling tax collections.
The Committee also discussed the Purchase Card Program; as vendor payments are made weekly, there
is not an immediate need or benefit to the City. The Committee recommended this item be tabled until at
least March, 1998.
In addition, petty cash expenditures for the month of June, 1997 were reviewed and approved by the
Committee.
Employee 5. APPROVAL AND PRESENTATION OF EMPLOYEE SUGGESTION AWARDS
Suggestion
Awards Personnel Manager Brent Hunter explained this was a request for approval of Employee Suggestion
Awards and, if the awards were approved, for presentation of the awards by Mayor Fahey and
Councilmember Haakenson. Mr. Hunter explained the approval would award seven employees $1,000
each for the significant savings their design/implementation generated at the Treatment Plant. He noted
the awards had also been reviewed and approved by the City Attorney.
COUNCILMEMBER VAN HOLLEBEKE MOVED, SECONDED BY COUNCILMEMBER
MILLER, FOR APPROVAL OF THE EMPLOYEE SUGGESTION AWARDS.
Councilmember Nordquist asked if he had a conflict of interest as his son was one of the recipients. City
Attorney Snyder answered no, as his son was a fully emancipated person.
MOTION CARRIED.

Mayor Fahey invited Councilmember Haakenson (who served on the Employee Suggestion Committee)
and Treatment Plant Manager Steve Koho to assist her with the presentation.
Mayor Fahey presented the Suggestion Awards as follows:
Suggestion #1 - Dechlorination and Continuous Emissions Monitoring projects in the Treatment
Plant. The Plant's Maintenance staff, including Clyde Davison, Paul Radtke, Kirk Vick, Jim Nordquist,
and Curt Zuvela, designed and constructed two new systems in the Plant, both of which are required by
state or federal law. Both systems would normally be contracted out to private firms for design and
installation. The installation of the Dechlorination system was budgeted in the 1995 budget (Fund 412)
at an estimated cost of $66,000. The system, as designed and built by the Plant's Maintenance staff, was
installed at a cost of $37,000. The other project, involving the Continuous Emissions Monitoring (CEM)
system, was budgeted in 1996 (Fund 414) at an estimated cost of $80,000. The Plant's Maintenance staff
designed and installed the new CEM system at a cost of $44,000. The combined savings from these two
projects is estimated at $65,000. These savings are retained in the Plant's Capital Improvement Fund to
be used for future plant improvement projects. The Suggestion Committee recommends, and the Council
approved, an award of $1000 to each of the five employees in the Maintenance section. Awards were
presented to Kirk Vick, Jim Nordquist, and Clyde Davison and the Council congratulated each employee.
Paul Radtke and Curt Zuvela were both on vacation.
Suggestion #2 - Identification and correction of Copper and Cyanide discharge violations in the
Treatment Plant. Until last year, the Treatment Plant had consistently (since 1991) been in violation of
legal discharge standards for copper and cyanide. In addition, last year a citizens action group filed a
lawsuit against the City because of these repeated violations. Two Plant Operators, Rod Sebers and Dan
Garcia, volunteered to investigate and track down the origins of these pollutants. After implementing a
large sampling study, they found the source of pollutants within the plant itself. Using their knowledge
of plant operations, they devised new operational and mechanical changes to control or prevent the
pollutants. An outside consultant firm, which the plant had employed as a result of the lawsuit, had
proposed a study to track down the pollutants at an estimated cost of between $50,000 to $100,000. In
addition, the City Attorney estimated a $20,000 savings in the lawsuit settlement, which was a result of
the employees' investigation, findings, and corrective actions. The investigation and corrective actions
taken by these two employees resulted in a savings to the Plant of approximately $70,000 to $120,000.
The Suggestion Committee recommends, and the Council approved, an award of $1000 each to the two
Operators. Awards were presented to Rod Sebers and Dan Garcia and the Council congratulated them.
Mayor Fahey advised the City's Wastewater Treatment Plan recently received the award for Operations
and Maintenance Excellence in the NW Pacific Region from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.
This award was based upon the above projects, along with other similar work performed by the Plant's
staff.
Appeal of 6. CONTINUATION OF MEETING ON AN APPEAL OF THE DECISION ISSUED BY THE

AP -96-148)
City Attorney Scott Snyder explained this matter was remanded by the City Council to the Architectural
Design Board (ADB) for written entry of facts. When the matter was presented to the Council originally
on appeal by Mr. Smith, the ADB had not entered written findings addressing all their required criteria.
Edmonds City Council Approved Minutes
July 15, 1997
Page 5
The main basis given for the ADB's decision was inapplicable; therefore, the Council upheld Mr.
Smith's appeal and remanded the matter to the ADB for entry of findings. The findings have now been
entered. Staff did not plan to make a presentation tonight; their previous recommendation was
incorporated into the written decision. He pointed out the Council did not receive the verbatim
transcripts of the March 10 and April 2 ADB meeting until tonight; he advised this was waivable and did
not void the process as the transcripts were the ADB's discussions as the findings were entered and the
written decision would address those discussions. He suggested the Council ask Mr. Smith's
representative, Sally Hyde, whether she wished to have the Council 'review the transcripts prior to her
argument (in accordance with City Ordinance and her right). In speaking with Ms. Hyde, he also learned
she had not received a copy of the ADB's written findings, a more serious violation of the City's
ordinance requirements.
Councilmember Miller asked if he was excluded from participation as this matter was heard prior to his
appointment. Mr. Snyder advised Councilmember Miller that he could recuse himself or he could
participate if he had fully reviewed the prior proceedings. Councilmember Miller said he had reviewed
the records.
Sally Hyde, 152 3rd Avenue S, Suite 101, Edmonds, representing Mr. Smith, indicated neither she
nor Mr. Smith received copies of the written findings. She pointed out this matter exceeded the
maximum time limit allowed by State Statute. She suggested the matter be sent back to the ADB with
instructions that the application be considered a preliminary landscape plan and to inform the applicant
what he needed to do in order to get the landscaping to a degree that it would be approved. She
explained a possible problem with this suggestion would be Mr. Smith's vesting in his application as
there have been changes to the City's Code. She indicated another alternative would be to instruct the
ADB to conditionally approve the application and add whatever landscape detail was necessary to meet
the purposes of ECDC 20.10.000.
Mr. Snyder recommended the matter be continued to a future date so Ms. Hyde would have an
opportunity to review the written decision and the Council could review the ADB transcripts. He
explained, if the appeal were continued at the Council level and the Council authorized receipt of an
application for preliminary landscape review, Mr. Smith could make a preliminary application under the
new Code section. If this was successful, he could proceed. If not, he would still be vested under the
first application and a hearing date could be established.
Ms. Hyde preferred the Council remand the matter to the ADB, instruct them to conditionally approve it
and propose the landscaping conditions the ADB felt met the purposes of the Code.
Councilmember White indicated he was not prepared to make a decision tonight as there had been
inadequate time to review the transcripts. Councilmember Myers and Van Hollebeke agreed.
COUNCILMEMBER MYERS MOVED, SECONDED BY COUNCILMEMBER WHITE, TO
CONTINUE THE HEARING UNTIL AUGUST 5, 1997. MOTION CARRIED.
Ms. Hyde advised the Findings of Fact included in the packet of information need to be dated and
pointed out the Findings were signed by only one member of the ADB. She also requested the City
follow its normal process of sending out the Findings and provide the applicant a deadline for appeal of
those findings. Mr. Snyder advised the Findings would be mailed on July 16; the appeal was underway
and the applicant was free to submit additional comments.

ption
ase APPOINTING AN ESCROW AGENT AND AUTHORIZING THE EXECUTION AND DELIVERY Y
OF AN ESCROW AGREEMENT
Karen Boyle, Foster, Pepper & Shefelman, explained the proposed ordinance was for the purchase of
two fire trucks through a lease financing agreement. The ordinance authorizes Administrative Services
Director Art Housler to sign the lease agreement with any changes he and the Council approve. She
referred to Foster Pepper & Shefelman's letter to the leasing company requesting changes largely to
comply with Washington law.
City Attorney Scott Snyder advised the matter was referred to Foster Pepper & Shefelman when his
review indicated this was debt financing and not a lease agreement. He noted the City would be able,
with Council authorization, to meet the delivery date, price, and financing specifications set forth in the
bid package.
At the request of Councilmember Nordquist, Ms. Boyle explained the sales tax would be Washington
State sales tax. Mr. Snyder recalled Edmonds delivery required the Edmonds sales tax rate; he offered to
verify this information.
Council President Earling asked how the escrow agent was determined. Mr. Snyder explained it was part
of the lease proposal. He explained the Darley Corporation received the chassis from the manufacturer
which they modified to the City of Edmonds' specifications. Neither manufacturer provides the lease
packages; the lease is provided via a corporation in Denver who selects an escrow agent of their choice.
Ms. Boyle advised the escrow bank was also the lease holder.

Labor
Agreemcnts Mr. Hunter explained this was a request for supplemental labor agreements with the Police Support,
Teamsters, and SEIU Unions. In May, the Council approved Ordinance No. 3145 which implemented
this portion of the Human Resources Plan, and stated Mr. Hunter would acquire a supplemental
agreement to implement this portion for union employees. The cost is $43,860, funds that were already
allocated in May; no further allocation is necessary.

SnoCon>/ Councilmember Haakenson advised the last SnoCom/Medic 7 meeting included establishment of
Medic 7 subcommittees to study, 1) the length of time required to withdraw from Medic 7, and 2) the proposal for
Lynnwood to take over Medic 7. He stressed Lynnwood had not yet made a proposal. Further savings
from such a proposal would not be as high as $400,000 - $700,000 as indicated by a citizen during public
comments. On another matter, Councilmember Haakenson urged citizens to attend the Concerts in the
Park.
So. County Councilmember Miller advised he is a member of the Integrated South County Fire Services Task Force

Ferry Line Councilmember Nordquist noted there are numerous families in ferry lines who could use the playground

to the park and informing them a play area and restrooms are available. Also, he noted several citizens

Repair Needs issue be addressed this fall. He agreed the new Brackett's Landing Park was a beautiful site.
