19790227 City Council Minutes330 February 20, 1979 - continued HEARING ON FINAL ASSESSMENT ROLL,:LID 204 == SEWERS, 3RD AVE. S., FROM PINE TO ELM City Engineer Fred Herzberg reviewed past action on this.LID, stating that the revised zone front foot charges will be $19.98. One protest had been recei.ved, from.Vernon Hahn of 3rd Ave., who had sold a portion of his property and -who felt the'LID would not.benefit any of his property. Mr. Herzberg said the Staff felt the property is being assessed and this was included in the LID at the beginning and if there were a problem it should have been mentioned earlier. He then explained the zone front foot assessment method for interested parties in the audience. He answered a question from a gentleman as to the difference in the zone front foot charges presently stated as opposed to those previously estimated. City Attorney Jim Murphy then explained the financing of the LID. The hearing was opened, no one else wished to speak, and the.hear.ing was closed. COUNCILMAN-NAUGHTEN MOVED, SECONDED BY COUNCILMAN GOULD, THAT ORDINANCE 2053 BE ADOPTED, APPROVING AND CONFIRMING THE FINAL ASSESSMENT AND ASSESSMENT ROLL OF LID 204, WITH A STATED 7% INTEREST RATE AND THE RECOMMENDATION THAT THE CITY ENGINEER SEPARATE A PROPORTIONATE SHARE OF THE ASSESSMENT ON LOT 14, TO ACCOMMODATE VERNON HAHN WHO HAD SOLD A PORTION OF THAT LOT. MOTION CARRIED. FURTHER REPORT ON DEVELOPMENT PROCESSING SYSTEM Community Development Director John LaTourelle had provided proposed Guiding Principles for the Development Management Program,.which had been developed from past Council discussions, and he recommended their adoption. Councilman Gould felt Principle 8, Finality of Decisions, was para- doxical in a way, and he said he would not feel comfortable adopting a policy that says there will be cumulative results when in reality that cannot happen. Felix Reisner then discussed with the Council the concept of a Hearing Examiner process which could replace most of the board and com- mission hearings. He described that process and cited several local municipalities which have adopted it and the benefit to be gained. Most of the Council were receptive to the concept, but • some reservations were expressed. Councilman Gould was concerned that it would not provide for a participative type of government,.and-that the responsibility would be placed basically on one person depending.on a definite set of,guidelines. He was also concerned about the cost of a Hearing Examiner. Councilman Carns questioned the practicality of using a Hearing Examiner, asking whether ordinances could be written.as succinctly as would be required.for this concept. He said he did like this concept, however, and would.like to see it explored further. Mr. Reisner will proceed with more detail on this concept and will obtain input from some of the cities which are using a Hearing Examiner. Some of the Council members expressed an interest in attending such a hearing in one of the local municipalities. Mr. Reisner then discussed a one -stop permit process which the Council indicated they would be very much interested in if it could be implemented. (During the discussion Councilman Naughten left at 9:20 p.m. and Councilman Nordquist left at 10:20 p.m.) At the conclusion of the discussion, COUNCILWOMAN ALLEN MOVED, SECONDED BY COUNCILMAN HERB, TO ADOPT THE DEVELOPMENT MANAGEMENT PROGRAM GUIDING PRINCIPLES PROPOSED BY THE COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DEPART- MENT. COUNCILMAN GOULD MOVED TO AMEND THE MOTION TO CHANGE PRINCIPLE #8 TO ELIMINATE THE WORDING THAT A DECISION SHOULD BE "ADHERED TO, AND ENFORCED." THE MOTION_TO AMEND FAILED FOR THE LACK OF A SECOND. THE MOTION THEN CARRIED.. (Councilmen Naughten and Nordquist were not present for the vote.) There was no further business to come before the Council, and.the meeting was adjourned at 10:25 p.m. IREN ARNEY MORAN, Ci(yy Clerk HARVE H.

MOTION CARRIED. The balance of the Consent Agenda included, the following: QJ J , • February 27, 1979 - continued (A) Roll call. (B) Approval of Minutes of February 20, 1979.' (C) Acknowledgment of receipt of Claim for Damages from Sonny Hancock in the amount of $346.44.

REPORT.ON BIDS OPENED FEBRUARY 14, 1979 FOR WATER.METERS [Item (D) on Consent Agenda] Public Works Director Leif.Larson had stated in this reportthat the water meter .replacement program would standardize the metering system for 14 types ofmeters to a basic one type of meter. Councilman Carns asked why this was desirable, and Mr. Larson responded -that it was partly because of parts, but in addition, the one they'are standardizing to gives good..service and has been the easiest to repair. He said the ones:being replaced are old and.the parts are -difficult to.get, and some have to be torn down completely to repair them. He, said.the standardization will save many hours of maintenance, and both the first costs and the maintenance.costs are important.. COUNCILMAN CARNS MOVED, SECONDED BY COUNCILMAN NAUGHTEN, TO APPROVE.ITEM (D) ON THE CONSENT AGENDA, AWARDING THE BID FOR WATER METERS TO PACIFIC WATER WORKS SUPPLY COMPANY, IN THE. AMOUNT OF $15,502.25,'INCLUDING SALES TAX. MOTION CARRIED. .REPORT ON BIDS OPENED FEBRUARY.14; 1979 FOR TWO STYLESI-DE PICKUP TRUCKS [Item (E) on Consent Agenda] • Councilman Carns noted that three of the four bidders.had not submitted bid bonds.with their bids, and the recommendation had'been to award the bid to Ahe low. -bidder, one of those not submitting a bid bond. He suggested that if this requirement was going -to be routinely waived the bid specifica- tions should state the bid bond may be waived. Councilman.Clement said -he di-d not like the fact that specifications are set requiring a bid bond and..then the bid is awarded to one who has not provided a bid bond, just because he is the low bidder and even though it is in -the best interest of the City.' City Attorney John Wallace advised that the Council could set whatever rules it wished for bidding as long as it was -not in conjunction with a.public works project that exceeds $5,000. COUNCILMAN CARNS THEN MOVED,'SECONDED BY COUNCILMAN NAUGHTEN, THAT.THE BIDS FOR TWO STYLESIDE PICKUP TRUCKS BE REJECTED AND THAT THE BIDS GO OUT AGAIN NOT..REQUIRING A BID BOND. MOTION CARRIED. COUNCIL Councilman Nordquist felt the Council should discuss what constitutes a home occupation. He said there has been a deterioration in some of the residential area in recent months:because of some home occupations which have been permitted, and he described.two such situations he had seen this week. COUNCILMAN NORDQUIST MOVED, SECONDED BY COUNCILMAN GOULD,, TO PLACE ON THE MARCH 13, 1979 AGENDA A DISCUSSION REGARDING HOME OCCUPATIONS. MOTION CARRIED. The Community Development Department will invite Board of Adjustment members to attend. Councilman Gould referred to a,letter from John and Eileen Owen regarding the Irish Acres subdivision and the positioning of a building on Lot 6 of that,.subdivision. Community Development Director John LaTourelle said his department had.determined which was the front yard of this lot and the proposal is to build the house to within 14' of the lot line, putting it well past the 10' requirement. John Owen was in the audience and said their question was not regarding the front yard but regarding the ,perimeter setbacks as it had.been indicated at the.Planning hearing that all the setbacks would be 25'. Mr. Owen was concerned because of the orientation of the house under construction, saying it • would detrimentally affect the value of his property. There was a lengthy discussion, and the City Attorney advised that unless there was something finalized on the plat that is contrary to the ordinances of the City there was nothing to be done..with respect to the final plat at this point in time. He said that in the future the Council could administratively require that the actual setbacks be shown on the final plat', --but if final approval had occurred more than 30 days ago there was nothing,to be done. The Council felt this matter should be discussed further, and COUNCILMAN CLEMENT MOVED, SECONDED BY COUNC'LLMAN CARNS, TO CONTINUE THIS ..DISCUSSION REGARDING THE IRISH ACRES SUBDIVISION TO MARCH 20, 1979. MOTION, CARRIED. Mr. LaTourelle noted that the foundation probably will be constructed within a week, and Mr. Wallace advised that if it has been more than 30 days since the final plat approval the aggrieved property owner would have to go through Superior Court to challenge the issuance of the.building permit. He read from Section 12.10.040 of the City Code the definition of "building envelope." Councilman Clement advised -.he would be absent on March 6..'He also called attention to an article in the current Sunset magazine regarding bicycling in.Edmonds. The article is very complimentary in describing Edmonds. Councilman Carns also advised he will not be present on March 6. Councilwoman Allen asked about a.report that was to•be forthcoming regarding the.storm sewers on Wharf St., and Public Works Director Leif Larson responded that the report had been completed and would be in the next Council packet. Councilman Herb advised he,would,be:absent March 20.—He said.he had been receiving inquiries about the implementation of the Sign Code and that controversies were developing. He asked for a status report from the Planning Department on existing problems because of the new Sign Code. Mayor Harrison said he had written.a letter to members of the business community asking about their problems with the Sign Code. COUNCILMAN:.HERB"MOVED, SECONDED BY COUNCILWOMAN ALLEN, TO PLACE'ON THE MARCH 27, 1979 AGENDA A REPORT AND`DISCUSSION REGARDING WHAT PROBLEMS THERE MAY BE IN THE IMPLEMENTATION OF • THE SIGN CODE. MOTION CARRIED. 332 February 27, 1981 - continued • AUDIENCE Don Schroeder of 528 8th Ave. N. said he was concerned about the protection of residential areas, and in -particular with regard to the proposed construction.of a church.and gymnasium by the Holy Rosary Church. He said the proposed.bu.ildings essentially would be in his front yard. He felt the present Zoning Code leaves much tobe desired regarding the protection of residential neighborhoods. Because of the large number of people present for Item 7 on the agenda.,'000NCILMAN HERB MOVED, SECONDED BY COUNCILWOMAN ALLEN, THAT ITEM 7 BE HEARD NEXT. MOTION CARRIED. HEARING ON LAND DEVELOPMENT AND LANDSLIDE HAZARDS IN THE MEADOWDALE AREA AND CONSIDERATION OF BUILDING MORATORIUM City Engineer Fred Herzberg explained the geology in the.Meadowdale area and showed drawings depicting typical slippage. He circulated -to the Council' photographs of the area taken in 1956. He said in 1968 it was recommended that construction be restricted until the surface water flow could be controlled but until recently there was relatively little development anyway. Development now is increasing and Mr. Herzberg demonstrated.that development will create twice as much water to be percolated, and that will cause slippage and slides. He did not believe the City could afford to allow building there at this point, and he proposed a study to answer: (1) What areas can be built upon without the use of sanitary and storm sewers? (2) What areas cannot be built upon no matter what is done? (3) What solutions are there to solve the problems and what will they cost? And, (4) What risk still remains? He said all the risks will not be removed but they can be reduced. The study is anticipated to cost approximately $30,000 and should take four to five months. During that time a moratorium was proposed on;new subdivisions and building permits, but not on remodeling a house or adding a room or garage.. He displayed a map of the proposed moratorium area. The public portion of the hearing was opened. • A Mr. Gorens of 164th P1. and 62nd Pl-. W. called attention to a large development in the City of Lynnwood just south and east of this area -and asked if this.was being considered and'discussed with the City of Lynnwood. Mr. Herzberg responded that there.will be about 150 homes there and water will be ponded on tennis courts and released slowly. He said it will be sewered and should not affect the area being discussed, but the City is working with the City of Lynnwood on this and the City has asked for an Environmental Impact Statement. Cliff Lawson of 16221 75th Pl. W. did not feel the boundaries of the moratorium area were adequate and that the moratorium should apply to the entire watershed in which the problem lies. He felt the land lying above Meadowdale Beach is contributing runoff to the people below. He said there is a proposed subdivision just east of him where the trees have already been cut prior to application for the subdivision, and because of it he has 18" of mud in his back yard. Steve Lee of 16527 62nd Ave. W., just below the Coast Guard property, said the property in the Lynnwood development is zoned for 8400 sq. ft. lots and all that water will go from the tennis court ponds right onto his property. He was in favor of the mora- torium but felt it should be extended to the Lynnwood city limits. Mr. Herzberg said he would have no problem extending the moratorium area. Councilman Carns;interjected that he thought the Council should get copies of.that Environmental Impact Statement. Hugh.Gardner of 15712 71st Ave. W. said that during the past week when the rain was heavy he had driven along Meadowdale Rd. and 200' from the road the water was running 2' wide and'4" deep, coming out at Haines. He said he was in favor of the moratorium if it would do any good, but he thought the $30,000 could be spent better by remedying some of the slides that-had.gone on for many years. Jack Linge of 6970 160th S.W. said the City Engineer's statements conflicted with those made during the hearing regarding Parkside West, a PRO development in the Meadowdal.e area. He felt that development was adding to the problem as they were "scalping" the land, and he felt the moratorium boundary should include that develop- ment. William Campbell of 8125 Fr.ederick'Pl., an architect and builder, said he is months into'two projects and it would be unfair to impose the moratorium on.him. He described the projects and Mr. Herzberg said.they are not in the sli.de:area.but their water might be contributive to the problem. He felt, however, that because Mr. Campbell was so far into them he should be excluded from the moratorium. In fact, he said it was Mr. Campbell's development which brought this problem to a head • _ and Mr. Herzberg almost felt thankful to Mr. Campbell for that. He said Mr. Campbell had applied for the subdivision on two developments and a building permit on .one. Mr. Campbell added that his septic system had been approved and the -short plat was applied for in October of 1978 and peres well. A Mr. Diesen of 15722 76th P1. W.. asked about the previous study made on this area in 1968. Mr. Larson said that study cited the problems but not the solutions, and they now wanted to find economic solutions and determine what.areas have no solutions. Mrs. Diesen then complained that North Meadowdale Rd. is not maintained. George Boden of 15901 68th P1. W. said he thought most of the people in the Meadowdale area, except the developers, would -endorse the moratorium, but he urged the Council to impose it all the way to the Lynnwood city.limits, particularly with respect to the Parkside West PRD. He also felt'Lynnwood was not giving adequate treatment to the water problem. Mike Russell of 15620 72nd Ave. W. was concerned that he would lose his investment in property because of the moratorium, and Mayor Harrison advised him that the idea of the study is to protect his property over the long run. Glen Loback of 15922 68th.P1. W. also felt the moratorium area should extend to the city limits. He felt the outcome of the study would be the requirement for a storm sewer LID for which the residents would have to pay.. An unidentified lady felt the City shoul� not have a strong obligation to developers and that property should not be developed if it well be detrimental to other properties. Donna Crawford of 15824 75th Pl. W. said her property is becoming soggier and soggier, and.she thanked the Council for giving this matter attention. She felt that as much area as possible should be included in the moratorium, including the PRD. Mrs. Sole of 16431 64th P1. W. said she and her husband purchased the lot on which Mr. Campbell was to build them a house, one of the developments he had referred to earlier. She said she had checked out the lot with the Engineering Department and it had an approved septic permit. Further, she said nothing was mentioned of this moratorium when,she was making. -inquiries. An unidentified lady said the Parkside West PRD is in an environmentally sensitive area and she was surprised it was not included in the moratorium area. She asked why it was not included. Mr. Herzberg responded that the amount of water going in and.coming out of that site will remain the same and the site will be served by Lynnwood sewers. He.explained the difference between detention and retention systems, and e�3V3 February 27, 19M - continued 1 11 C� 1 • 1 1 that this PRD will use a detention system. The lady.asked.the Council to include in the moratorium any building permits not already approved. :The public portion of the hearing was then closed. COUNCILMAN NORDQUIST MOVED,`SECONDED BY COUNCILMAN GOULD,,.TO AMEND THE BOUNDARIES IN EXHIBIT A TO THE PROPOSED MORATORIUM RESOLUTION, BEGINNING AT LUNDS GULCH TO FOLLOW THE CITY BOUNDARIES AND SOUTH ON 68TH'TO MEADOWDALE RD-. AND FOLLOW THE CITY LIMITS AND WEST'ON 76TH TO BERTOLA RD., AND TO THE LYNNWOOD TREATMENT PLANT: .Regarding the.Parkside West.PRD, Mr. LaTourelle said to his knowledge they had not applied for a:.building-permit because of pending litigation, but he felt the benefits ,the City would derive from including that PRD would nowhere match the harm done to the individual. Mr. Herzberg again stated,that the water balance in.that.area remains the same and he fully expected the property .to take care of the runoff, but during construction --prior to the -'detention being installed --there will be a problem, and if they are stopped there will not be anything to prevent the runoff in the development. Mr.-LaTourelle said.the Campbell subdivision had been denied but was being appealed.to the Planning Commission. He said the Sole property was all right and was the only subdivision pending in the -area -so he recommended it be excluded from -the moratorium. He said Brookacres will be sewered and`is in the low area. Councilman Carns cautioned.that the Council must be fair in what they do and--not..arbitrarily add areas. -to the moratorium area. Councilman Herb agreed and said the whole moratorium could be joepardi,zed by adding areas that are not necessary. Councilman Gould however, felt the natural line following the City limits.was the better boundary for the moratorium. Councilman Naughten, :felt"°�i t`.•wass' unfair: t6..i:ncl ude Parks de.. West,,, when the Engineer's study indicated they -are not impacting the area, and Councilman Clement felt the impact from that development over the next five months would be worse if they could not put i.n their detention system.. Councilman.Carns said he could not accept the expanded boundaries because he could not find justification for them. THE VOTE WAS THEN TAKEN, WITH COUNCILMEN NORDQUIST AND GOULD VOTING YES, AND ALL OTHER COUNCI-LMEMBERS VOTING NO. MOTION -FAILED. COUNCILMAN-CARNS THEN MOVED TO PASS RESOLUTION 428 DECLARING A'MORRTORIUM ON THE ISSUANCE OF ALL BUILDING PERMITS AND APPROVALS OF PRD'S, SUBDIVISIONS, AND SHORT SUBDIVISIONS IN THE MEADOWDALE AREA OF EDMONDS AS INDICATED IN EXHIBIT A ATTACHED TO SAID RESOLUTION. MOTION CARRIED. A short recess was announced. HEARING ON P.C. RESOLUTION 612, RECOMMENDING APPROVAL OF CONTRACT REZONE FROM RML TO BN, AT 8301 212TH ST. S.W. (GAYLORD) Community Development Director John LaTourelle said this proposed contract rezone would exclude retail operations. The Council had been provided minutes.of the Planning Commission hearing on the proposal, as well as the rezone contract. The public portion of the hearing was opened, no one wished to speak, and the' public portion was closed. COUNCILWOMAN ALLEN MOVED; SECONDED BY COUNCIL- MAN HERB, TO ADOPT ORDINANCE 2054, PURSUANT TO P.C. RESOLUTION 612, APPROVING THE SUBJECT REZONE; AND FINDING THAT THE REZONE CRITERIA WERE MET. MOTION CARRIED. HEARING TO ESTABLISH TWO-HOUR:PARKING ON JAMES ST. FROM 2ND TO 3RD AVES. The proposed ordinance would restrict parking to two hours.on both sides- of James St. The public portion of the hearing was opened, no-one wished to speak, and the public portion was closed. Councilman Herb asked why -the restriction was proposed_.as it did not appear that there would be a parking problem at this location. City Engineer Fred,Herzberg responded that they were doing it for consistency in the central business district and this was the only street there without such a parking restriction, and the reason for that was that it is a new street. It was also noted that the increase in parking from •the new ferry traffic should also be considered and that ferry commuters undoubtedly would be parking all day'at this location.if the parking were not restricted. Charlie Korten, a businessman, commented that some visitors to the E1 Capitan condominium maybe inconvenienced just for the sake of consistency, and he noted that there are no retail businesses in that area. COUNCILWOMAN ALLEN MOVED,•SECONDED BY COUNCILMAN NAUGHTEN., TO ADOPT ORDINANCE 2055', ESTABLISHING TWO-HOUR PARKING ON JAMES.ST.. FROM 2ND TO 3RD AYES., BECAUSE SHE FELT THE CITY WILL FACE SEVERE PARKING PROBLEMS IN THE NEXT FEW MONTHS. MOTION CARRIED. REVIEW OF PORT OF EDMONDS,.MASTER LAND USE PLAN Assistant City Planner Mary Lou Block said the Community -Development Department is in basic agreement with the general proposals incorporated in the Port .of Edmonds Master Land Use Plan, but there are certain aspects of•the design they will be looking for when detailed plans are submitted. She said they support the vacation of Dayton St. as a vehicular road and its retention only for pedestrian and emergency access. When, the new Admiral Way is constructed they urge a substantial reduction in width of the existing Admiral Way and its use as a bicycle path with extensive landscaping. They hope to.see a strong definition of the pedestrian walkway and an effective separation of motor vehicle, pedestrian, and bicycle traffic. She said. -all construction on the Port property should be consistent with standards. adopted for .the City of Edmonds waterfront development. She said this plan generally'is in accordance with the requirements of the CW-zone and the Policy Plan. Jerry Hann of Reid, Middleton.& Associates said the Port wanted the Council to review the plan and be comfortable with it, and they wanted the Council to be aware of the long=term goals. He reviewed the plan, pointing out the major elements --a mid -marina area which would add moorage for approximately 100 boats, a small commercial building'•(20,000 sq. ft.) at -the north end of the site which will be restaurant and retail space.,°a commercial industrial park, and the relocation of Admiral Way. He explained how parking would be accommodated. The plan was generally discussed, and in bringing the discussion to a close Councilman Gould.stated that he thought.the weakness of the plan was that it was not definitive enough in'the area of parking. REVIEW OF ROBERT PANTLEY'S-PROPOSAL FOR DEVELOPMENT.OF PROPERTY ON THE WATERFRONT Robert Pantley displayed drawings for several variations of his proposal. One.variation proposed the joint use of the City's parking lot and by doing this Mr. Pantley could provide 5500 sq. ft. of open space. Mr. LaTourelle said. -he could see several,prob.lems but he thought they could be worked out. He said in general the proposal meshed into.what.the City -would like to see there, and it tied 33 February 27, 1979 - continued • in with the Port's master plan. The proposal was for a first floor of retail shops anda restaurant and office.space on the second floor. It.was felt the plan should be refined and a definite proposal made, rather than presenting several variations. COUNCILMAN CARNS MOVED, SECONDED BY COUNCILMAN NORDQUIST, THAT MR. PANTLEY BE.ASKED TO WORK OUT A CONCRETE PROPOSAL WITH THE COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT AND THEN RETURN TO THE COUNCIL. MOTION CARRIED. There was.no 'further business tocome before the Council, and the meeting was adjourned at 12:00 midnight. � e IRENE VARNEY MORA , C" y Clerk HARVE.H.. HARRISON, Mayor March 6, 1979 The regular meeting of the Edmonds City Council was called to order at 7:32 p.m. by Mayor Pro tem Ray Gould. Mayor Harrison arrived shortly thereafter and conducted the meeting. All present joined in the flag salute.

PROPOSED RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING AN.INTERFUND LOAN FOR THE PURPOSE OF CONSUMMATING COMPUTER • PURCHASE AND AN INTERFUND TRANSFER'FOR THE PURPOSE OF REHABILITATING THE BOYS' CLUB Item D on Consent Agenda With regard to the transfer of $10,000 from the Council'Contingency Fund for the rehabilitation of the Boys' Club, Councilman Carns said when this was discussed it was stated that the funds would not be'transferred until the Council knew how the money was being spent. Public Works Director Leif Larson responded that estimates had been submitted for the previous discussion and, although they were not firm, they were as close as he could come. Councilman Carns felt that was not adequate. THEREFORE., COUNCILMAN CARNS MOVED; SECONDED BY COUNCILWOMAN ALLEN, TO DISAPPROVE ITEM (D) ON THE CONSENT"AGENDA. The question.was asked as to what kind of accounting there will be of the spending if the funds are transferred. Mr —Larson said the accounting would be by work order control or contract, but Councilman Carns said he wanted to see what. work is to be done and what it will cost before the money is transferred. Councilman Gould felt the Council had gone into a: lot ofdetail of what was planned when this was discussed previously, and he said his understanding of how the funds would be used was a "not to exceed" amount. Councilman Naughten said that was his understanding also, -and he said he had no problem with the transfer. He said his only question was what would-be left in the Council Contingency Fund after this and another $4,000 item on the agenda were deducted. Finance Director Art Housler responded that the balance would be, approximately $103,000 after several transfers are completed.
