19760831 City Council Minutes`9 • cussed at next week's meeting, possibly the Park Board could review the ORB document and offer their comments at that meeting. A great concern of the Council was.that even if the voters were to approve covering the pool, the additional operating expenses may be more of a burden than the City could handle. Councilman Nordquist said he would like to see estimated operating costs if the pool were open all year and also costs.that would be put on other departments in the city_. Mr. Bignold was complimented on the excellent and informative report his organization had prepared. PROPOSED ORDINANCE RELATIVE TO CREATION OF A UTILITY FOR AMBULANCE AND AID CAR SERVICE It was generally agreed that consideration of this proposed ordinance was probably somewhat pre- mature in view of the.preparation of the budget and pending attempts at some kind of South County inter -local agreement. Also, Fire Chief Cooper could not be present at this meeting and it was felt his presence was desirable for the discussion. Acting Fire Chief Jack Weinz said there has been no problem in answering aid car calls. He said they have been transferring emergencies inside the City and calls outside the City have been handled by private ambulances. A MOTION WAS MADE BY COUN- MOTION: CILMAN ANDERSON, SECONDED BY COUNCILMAN NORDQUIST, THAT THIS DISCUSSION BE POSTPONED UNTIL THE FIRE CHIEF COULD BE PRESENT AND THAT THE DATE FOR THIS DISCUSSION BE SET FOR OCTOBER 5; ALSO, THAT A STRONG ATTEMPT SHOULD BE MADE TO GET SOME KIND OF AN AREA AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE SOUTH COUNTY CITIES AND POSSIBLY THE HOSPITAL. Mayor Harrison has been active in that area and it was suggested he pursue this aspect. Councilman Gellert was concerned that SNOCOM may go to a useage charge, and he said that should be included in budgetary estimates. M.A.A. Herb Gilbo clarified the information the council wished to have for the October 5 meeting, to include: (1) The Staff will work with the Mayor to present at the October 5 meeting information regarding charging for services on a mutual aid agreement; (2) The Council is generally leaning toward the idea that there.are presently no problems handling the calls within the City without standby service and should not move toward additional service; and (3) The Staff is to work with the Mayor to recommend some method of revenue production in greater detail than already presented and something with a greater degree of equity, and to provide a detailed estimate of the budgetary costs including what has routinely been included in the budget and which should be broken out. MOTION THEN CARRIED. • REPORT ON BIDS FOR FIRE SUPPRESSION ATTACH UNIT (OPENED AUGUST 19) Acting Fire Chief Jack Weinz reviewed Chief Cooper's written report on the bids. Three bids had been received, the low bid being from Pierce Fire Apparatus. Their bid was for $25,784.18, and they offered an $800 discount if the bid is awarded by August 25, 1976 and an additional 1% dis- count if payment is made within 15 days of delivery, delivery anticipated to be 100 working days from the bid award. With both discounts, the cost would be $24,693.95. After discussion, A MOTION MOTION: WAS MADE BY COUNCILMAN NORDQUIST, SECONDED BY COUNCILMAN HERB, TO ACCEPT THE BID OF PIERCE FIRE APPARTUS IN THE AMOUNT OF $25,784.18, AND FURTHER TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THE $800.00 BID AWARD BY AUGUST 25 AND THE 1% CASH DISCOUNT FOR PAYMENT WITHIN 15 DAYS OF DELIVERY,,WITH AN F.O.B. DELIVERY OF SEATTLE, WASHINGTON. COUNCILMAN GELLERT MOVED, SECONDED BY COUNCILMAN CARNS, THAT THE MOTION BE AMENDED TO CHANGE.THE WORD "DELIVERY" IN THE PHRASE". . .WITHIN 15 DAYS OF DELIVERY," TO THE WORD "ACCEPTANCE." MOTION ON THE AMENDMENT CARRIED, WITH COUNCILMAN HERB VOTING NO. THE MAIN MOTION THEN CARRIED. There was no further business to come before the Council, and the meeting was adjourned at 10:40 p.m. August 31, 1976 The regular meeting of the Edmonds City Council was called to order at 7:40 p.m. by Mayor Harve Harrison in the Council Chambers of the Edmonds Civic Center.

COUNCIL PARTICIPATION Councilman Nordquist noted that there would be a meeting at the Woodway City Hall September 1 re- garding development of the Bullitt property adjacent to Edmonds. He said it was his udnerstanding that Elm St. is being considered as an access street and he asked whether the City Engineer was aware of the plans. He asked that the City Engineer contact the Town of Woodway to see if their plans are in line.with those of the City of Edmonds. • Councilman Anderson advised he would not be present at the September 14 meeting. Councilman Carns said there are several City cars that are used by people on a-24-hour basis • and, -prior to budget time, he would like to get an update to know what these cars are used for. MOTION: A MOTION WAS THEN MADE BY COUNCILMAN CARNS, SECONDED BY COUNCILMAN ANDERSON,. THAT THE STAFF BE DIRECTED TO JUSTIFY, FOR THE PURPOSE OF THE 1977 BUDGET, THAT THE USE OF CITY OWNED VEHICLES BY EMPLOYEES FOR TRAVEL BETWEEN WORK AND HOME IS OF SUFFICIENT BENEFIT TO THE CITY THAT THAT SERVICE BE CONTINUED. MOTION CARRIED. Councilman Gellert referred to Item 5 on the Agenda, a request for a cabaret license, and said it had been agreed that Work Meeting agenda items would be put on the agenda by the Council or staff at least one week before the meeting. He said the Staff should ask the Council at least a week prior whether they want to discuss such an item at the Work Meeting. Councilman Gellert also stated that Councilmen Clement and Carns and he had attended the Open Space Taxation Act meeting on August 30 wherein John Johnson had asked that his 62-acre property be declared open space. His request had been unanimously approved. Mr. Johnson had indicated his intention to deed the property, on his death, to a foundation so it would be kept open space. Councilman Gellert said they had suggested he might want to donate it to the City of Edmonds. Mr. Johnson had indicated his willingness and Councilman Gellert had suggested that a group from the Council go out to view the property. Mr. Johnson had indicated they would be welcome. Councilman Gellert suggested it could be arranged for some Saturday morning. He said he thought it would be a relatively low maintenance piece of property. Mayor Harrison said he would arrange such a visit. Mayor Harrison announced that the Mountlake Terrace City Council was challenging the Edmonds City Council and any of the Staff to a golf match on September 18 at Ballinger. He asked interested people to advise him so he could answer the letter. Mayor Harrison advised that the Snohomish County ASsociation of Washington Cities is holding its regional meeting on Thursday, October 28, in Everett. He said the State association officials will attend, and also the legislators from this area. `.. FOR CABARET DANCE LICENSE —SAIL IN,^TAVERN •REQUEST Chief Foster said the applicant has a good record and he did not object, but he felt it should be on a 60-day trial basis. The request had been for guitar music on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays from 9:00 p.m. to 1:30 a.m. Chief Foster felt that during the trial period the music should be restricted to only one night a week and that it cease at midnight. He said the crucial period is during the early days while they are discovering any problems and that it compounds the problem to be too liberal. He said that after the trial period the ordinance permits music until 1:00 a.m., but he ordinarily has it cease at midnight. Dorothy Zenk, one of the owners of the Sail In Tavern, said this restriction during the trial period would be no hardship. A MOTION WAS MADE BY COUNCILMAN ANDERSON, MOTION: SECONDED BY COUNCILMAN GELLERT, THAT THE REQUEST BY THE SAIL IN TAVERN FOR A CABARET LICENSE BE APPROVED, PROVIDED THERE BE A 60-DAY TRIAL PERIOD WITH MUSIC LIMITED TO ONE NIGHT A WEEK AND CEASING AT MIDNIGHT. MOTION CARRIED. DISCUSSION ON WATER -SEWER RATES (CONTINUED FROM JULY 13 MEETING) City Engineer Lief Larson advised he could not yet give a complete and accurate report. He asked for a continuance to September 14 on the rate increases required for present bonded indebtedness and operational expenditures. He said the presentation on capital improvements and water storage requirements would be submitted upon completion of the suty by Reid, Middleton & Associates. A MOTION: MOTION WAS MADE BY COUNCILMAN NORDQUIST, SECONDED BY COJNCILMAN CARNS, THAT THE DISCUSSION ON RATE INCREASES REQUIRED FOR PRESENT BONDED INDEBTEDNESS AND OPERATIONAL EXPENDITURES BE CONTINUED TO SEPTEMBER 14, AND THAT THE CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS PORTION BE.PRESENTED WHEN THE ENGINEER'S STUDY IS COMPLETE. MOTION CARRIED. DISCUSSION ON ENTIRE PARK BOND ISSUE Park Planning and Recreation Director Rod Garretson briefly reviewed the background for this dis- cussion. He said that after additional meetings the Park Board and he were reaffirming their re- • quest that the Council approve the three proposed park bond issues for a November vote by the people. He said the basic dollar amounts were as indicated in his letter of August 27. He noted that two main issues had been whether to include a lawn bowling facility and the maintenance costs. A lengthy discussion followed. Mr. Garretson noted that Mr. Bignold of ORB had indicated a portion of the swimming pool cover could be opened at an additional cost of $75,000 and that some things could be eliminated to bring the cost down in other areas of the concepts submitted. Councilman Gellert felt strongly that any nonrecurring maintenance costs should be on the ballot. Councilman Nordquist said he would like to see any construction overseen by the Engineering Department. Coun- cilman Carns felt the needs of the City should be prioritized, although for the purposes of the bond issue there was not much time. The proposed pool cover was discussed at length. Members of the Park Board were present and they were asked for their recommendations. Keith LaBelle said that at the most recent meeting the Board had decided it wanted all three proposals of the bond issue put on the ballot --with no prioritization. He said they had voted on a selection of one of the three designs submitted. His vote had been negative because he was not in favor of Concept G. He said, also, that by the time they got around to the vote there were only four members present --himself, Herb White, Dick Cole and Bill Phillips. During the discussion it was noted that there are several covered pools in the area, and the Yost Park pool is unique in being open, and a good number of people prefer the outdoor atmosphere. The cost of year-round maintenance was one of the major problems to be overcome. The possibility of a utility tax to fund the maintenance had been suggested by Mr. Garretson, and Councilman Anderson said he would feel more positive about a utility tax for this purpose than for an ambulance service. He also felt the success of a covered pool would depend on good management. Mr. Garretson and Dick Cole; a Park Board member, both said they had received many inquiries as to when the pool would get a cover. Regarding the lawn bowling proposal, although it was agreed this would be a good facility for senior citizens, it appeared to be costly for a small group. Councilman Clement pointed out that approxi- mately 1/3 of the projected annual maintenance costs in the development portion of the bond issue would go -to the lawn bowling facility, which also would make up approxiamtely 1/4 of the investment in that portion of the proposed issue. He said he did not feel there would be sufficient partici- • pation in this community to warrant 1/3 of the maintenance costs and 1/4 of the new investment going into that facility. There was some.discussion as to the limited recreation for senior citizens in Edmonds and it was pointed out that they apparently do not have any difficulty getting to Seattle to bowl and, with the new transportation system, it will be even easier. Councilman Clement noted that the senior citizens in�this City are one of the more vocal and well represented interest groups and, comparatively speaking, there had not been the interest shown that there had been by them for such things as senior housing and transportation. Larry Bailey, Chairman of the Park Board, said he would not like to see lawn bowling omitted. He said the most well attended public meeting held had a large group of people interested in lawn bowling. Regarding land acquisition, Councilman Clement suggested there should be some money for develop- ment at the time property is purchased and, therfore, he felt the amount for land acquisition should be increased. It was also suggested that IAC matching funds might be available to make land acquisition money go farther. MOTION: A MOTION WAS MADE BY COUNCILMAN ANDERSON, SECONDED BY COUNCILMAN NORDQUIST, THAT THE CITY ATTORNEY BE DIRECTED TO PREPARE A RESOLUTION TO PLACE ON THE BALLOT THE PARK BOND ISSUE TO INCLUDE AN ITEM FOR THE-YOST PARK POOL ENCLOSURE FOR $1,000,000, TO INCLUDE THE DEHUMIDIFICATION SYSTEM BASED UPON CONCEPT G OR ANOTHER DESIGN, IF FEASIBLE, TO PERMIT OPENING A PORTION OF THE COVER BY SAVING A COMPARABLE AMOUNT IN THE OUTDOOR APPURTENANCES. COUNCILMAN CLEMENT MOVED, SECONDED BY COUNCILMAN NORDQUIST, TO AMEND THE MOTION THAT.THE RESOLU- TION WILL INCORPORATE A COMMITMENT BY THE COUNCIL TO INCREASE THE UTILITY TAX 2/3 of 1% TO FUND THE ADDITIONAL OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE OF THE FACILITY AND THAT THE AMOUNT BE INCREASED BY $75,000 TO PROVIDE FOR DOUBLE GLAZING. THE AMENDMENT CARRIED, WITH COUNCILMAN HERB ABSTAINING BECAUSE HE WAS GOING TO VOTE AGAINST THE MAIN MOTION. THE MAIN MOTION THEN CARRIED, WITH COUN- CILMAN HERB OPPOSED. MOTION: A MOTION WAS MADE BY COUNCILMAN GELLERT, SECONDED BY COUNCILMAN CARNS, THAT THE CITY ATTORNEY BE • INSTRUCTED TO PREPARE A RESOLUTION TO PLACE ON THE BALLOT A PARK BOND IMPROVEMENT BOND ISSUE OF $400,000, WHICH WILL INCLUDE THE ITEMS RECOMMENDED -BY THE,PARK BOARD, EXCLUDING LAWN BOWLING. COUNCILMAN ANDERSON MOVED, SECONDED BY COUNCILMAN HERB, TO AMEND 0THE MOTION TO INCLUDE LAWN BOWLING AT THE FIGURES MENTIONED, $135,000. Mayor Harrison ruled this motion to amend was germane. THE MOTION TO AMEND FAILED, WITH COUNCILMEN CLEMENT, GELLERT, NORDQUIST AND CARNS VOTING NO, AND COUNCILMEN ANDERSON AND HERB VOTING YEST. THE MAIN MOTION THEN CARRIED. MOTION: A MOTION WAS MADE BY COUNCILMAN CLEMENT, SECONDED BY COUNCILMAN CARNS, THAT THE CITY ATTORNEY BE INSTRUCTED TO PREPARE A RESOLUTION PROVIDING FOR A BOND ISSUE OF $600,000 FOR PARK LAND ACQUISITION AND DEVELOPMENT, THE TERM OF WHICH WOULD BE 20 YEARS, AND THAT THE RESOLUTION SPECIFY -THAT NOT MORE THAN $200,000 OF THE $600,000 BE AVAILABLE FOR ACTUAL DEVELOPMENT OF THE NEWLY ACQUIRED SPACE. MOTION CARRIED. MOTION: A MOTION WAS MADE BY COUNCILMAN GELLERT, SECONDED BY COUNCILMAN ANDERSON, THAT THE RESOLUTION (Failed) SPECIFY THAT THE SEQUENCE OF THE ITEMS ON THE.BALLOT BE (1) PARK IMPROVEMENT, (•2) THE POOL EN- CLOSURE, AND (3) LAND ACQUISITION. MOTION FAILED, WITH COUNCILMEN CLEMENT, NORDQUIST, CARNS AND HERB VOTING NO, AND COUNCILMEN GELLERT AND ANDERSON VOTING YES. MOTION: A MOTION WAS MADE BY COUNCILMAN CARNS, SECONDED BY COUNCILMAN CLEMENT, THAT THE SEQUENCE OF THE ` ITEMS ON THE BALLOT BE (1) DEVELOPMENT, (2) ACQUISITION, AND (3) POOL COVER. MOTION CARRIED. MOTION: A MOTION WAS MADE BY COUNCILMAN CARNS, SECONDED BY COUNCILMAN GELLERT, THAT ALL THREE BOND ISSUES BE GIVEN A 20-YEAR TERM. MOTION CARRIED. Mr. Garretson expressed his appreciation for the efforts of the Council, and the fact that the public will be given the opportunity to indicate their desires on this subject. It was agreed that the City should make an effort to see that all the facts are known, without taking a stand. MOTION: Councilman Nordquist said he would like to see the facts published and distributed. A MOTION WAS • MADE BY COUNCILMAN NORDQUIST, SECONDED BY COUNCILMAN CARNS, THAT THE MAYOR'S; OFFICE DIRECT THE PROPER DEPARTMENT TO CREATE A BROCHURE STATING THE FACTS IN REGARD TO THIS PARK BOND ISSUE AND THAT THIS BE MAILED TO THE CITIZENS OF THE CITY OF EDMONDS, USING ALL FACILITIES AVAILABLE TO CONTACT EVERY CITIZEN. MOTION: A MOTION WAS MADE BY COUNCILMAN CARNS, SECONDED BY COUNCILMAN ANDERSON, TO TABLE THIS UNTIL NEXT WEEK'S MEETING TO GIVE THE MAYOR'S OFFICE TIME TO COMPILE A COST STUDY BREAKDOWN OF WHAT IT WILL COST TO PREPARE AND MAIL THE FACT SHEET. Councilman Clement asked that the legality of the fact sheet also be checked. MOTION TO TABLE CARRIED. Public Works Director Ron Whaley noted that 25% of the Edmonds citizens live in apartments, and utility billings go to the apartment owners, not the tenants, so using the utility mailing lists would not accomplish the purpose. PROPOSAL FOR ANALYSIS OF WATER STORAGE REQUIREMENTS MOTION: City Engineer Leif Larson requested this item be continued. A MOTION WAS MADE BY COUNCILMAN NORDQUIST, SECONDED BY COUNCILMAN HERB, TO CONTINUE THE PROPOSAL FOR ANALYSIS OF WATER STORAGE REQUIREMENTS TO OCTOBER 5, OR SOONER, AS DETERMINED BY THE CITY ENGINEER. MOTION CARRIED. PROPOSAL FOR RE-EVALUATING AND UPDATING 1965 COMPREHENSIVE STORM SEWER PLAN City Engineer Leif Larson had prepared an explanatory memorandum which had been distributed. He said the Comprehensive Plan, prepared in 1965 and prior to Public Law 92-500, should be re-eval- uated and updated, including estimates for each drainage basin. This would provide the background for the City to institute the necessary financial planning for the drainage system. Mr. Larson said he thought it important to do this and that it had been well coordinated. He recommended that the Mayor be authorized to enter an agreement with the firm of Reid, Middleton & Associates to accomplish the study to update the Comprehensive Storm Sewer Plan. He said he also would have a related resolution from the Planning Commission shortly. He also said funds for the study had budgeted in the amount of $15,000 in the 1976 budget. Councilman Nordquist asked why Reid, Mid- dleton & Associates were used all the time. Mr. Larson said they are familiar and have all the 482 data, and they are qualified. He said he thought it would be the most economical way for the • City to do it. Councilman Nordquist said he would like to see the City use some other companies occasionally. Mr. Larson said that possibly there should be a committee formed to evaluate the City's engineering concepts and the contract it has with Reid, Middleton. Councilman Gellert said the one thing that bothered him was that Reid, Middleton not only represents the City, but they also represent most developers in the City. Mr. Larson said that had been discussed with Reid, Middleton, and they do keep their engineering people working for municipalities separate from those doing development. A MOTION WAS MADE BY COUNCILMAN NORDQUIST, SECONDED BY COUNCILMAN MOTION: GELLERT, THAT THE ENGINEER'S PROPOSAL BE ACCEPTED FOR THE USE OF THE FIRM OF REID, MIDDLETON & ASSOCIATES FOR THE PROPOSAL FOR RE-EVALUATING AND UPDATING THE 1965 COMPREHENSIVE STORM SEWER PLAN FOR AN AMOUNT NOT TO EXCEED $12,000, AND TO BE PAID IN INCREMENTS AS THE WORK IS COMPLETED. MOTION CARRIED. MOTION: A MOTION WAS MADE BY COUNCILMAN GELLERT, SECONDED BY COUNCILMAN CARNS, THAT THE MAYOR OR CITY ENGINEER BE INSTRUCTED TO WRITE A LETTER TO THE ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY REQUESTING IN- FORMATION AS TO WHY THEY SHOULD NOT REIMBURSE THE CITY FOR ITS STORM SEWAGE PROJECT OR WHY THEY SHOULD NOT BE REQUIRED TO WRITE AN ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT JUSTIFYING THE ELIMINATION OF SOUTHWEST SNOHOMISH COUNTY FROM THEIR 208 STUDY. To explain the action taken by the Environmental Protection Agency, Councilman Clement said their feeling had been that the major influences on the water bodies that they would be studying in South Snohomish County would be covered by the King County Metro Study because the source waters that were flowing into Ballinger, etc., were going to be studied under the King County Metro Study, and that their application of funds had to go to areas where source waters were not going to be studied. MOTION THEN CARRIED, WITH COUNCILMAN CLEMENT VOTING NO. MOTION: A MOTION WAS MADE BY COUNCILMAN HERB, SECONDED BY COUNCILMAN CLEMENT, THAT THE REID, MIDDLETON & ASSOCIATES CONTRACT BE REVIEWED AT THE FIRST WORK MEETING IN NOVEMBER. MOTION CARRIED. There was no further business to come before the Council, and the meeting was adjourned at 10:10 p.m. September 7, 1976.4f�zz I • IRENE VARNEY MORAN, 4ity Clerk H. H. HARRISON, Mayor The regular meeting of 'the Edmonds City Council was called to order at 7:35 p.m. by Mayor Harve Harrison in the Council Chambers of the Edmonds Civic Center.

He also announced that Item (F) would be removed to be discussed with the Cost Study Breakdown for the Bond Issue Brochure item. A MOTION MOTION: WAS MADE BY COUNCILMAN CARNS, SECONDED BY COUNCILMAN ANDERSON, THAT THE BALANCE OF THE CONSENT AGENDA BE APPROVED. MOTION CARRIED. The remaining Consent Agenda contained the following items: (A) Approval of Minutes of August 31. (B) Set date for hearing P.C. Resolution 522, recommending City Council zone • Elementary School site "Open Space" and pursue alternative methods of acquiring the property. (File ZO-3-76) Date of September 28 recommended by City Planner. (C) Set date for hearing P.C. Resolution 523, recommending that Jr. High School property not be given a zoning designation until the City Scouncil has investi- gated the continued public use of this property. (File ZO-4-76) Date of Sep- tember 28 is recommended by City Planner. (D) Resolution 367 commending Edmonds Lions Club for Sierra Park for the Blind. AMENDMENT TO TRAFFIC ORDINANCE TO RETURN PARKING TO 76TH AVE. W. (Item (E) removed from Consent Agenda) City Engineer Leif Larson reviewed the last action taken by the Council on this subject. He said he was to study the.plan, and especially the length of the transitions to the intersections where the traffic lights are located. Mr. Larson displayed drawings of two parking plans for 76th Ave. W., one indicating the last action indicated by the Council (Plan A), and the other indicating his new proposal (Plan B). Plan B reflected no parking at any time on either side of 76th W. from 212th S.W. to 216th S.W., and also on either side of 76th W. within 150' of the intersections at 220th S.W. and 224th S.W. At this point Councilman Clement noted that Councilman Nordquist's motion to re- store the parking on 76th had specifically limited the transitions to the intersections to 100' and, as Councilman Nordquist was not present but had called to say he would be in attendance, he suggested no vote be taken until the arrival of Councilman Nordquist. A MOTION WAS THEN MADE BY COUNCILMAN CLEMENT. SECONDED BY COUNCILMAN CARNS, THAT THIS ITEM BE TABLED UNTIL THE ARRIVAL OF COUNCILMAN NORDQUIST. MOTION CARRIED. COUNCIL PARTICIPATION Councilman Gellert referred to a letter from the Park Director regarding the Edmonds Junior High •
