4. PUBLIC HEARING REGARDING DRAFT REVISIONS TO THE OUTDOOR DINING
REGULATIONS OF ECDC 17.75 AND ADDITION OF A DEFINITION OF OUTDOOR DINING
TO ECDC 21.75. (FILE NO. AMD20110005)
Planner Jen Machuga explained the City’s current regulations allow outdoor dining outright as a
secondary use for an additional 10% of the existing interior seating or 8 seats, whichever is greater. If the
restaurant wishes to have more than 10% of the interior seats or 8 seats, a Type III-A Conditional Use
Permit (CUP) is required. The cost of a CUP is approximately $1500 and is reviewed by the Hearing
Examiner. The current process is cost prohibitive especially for small businesses who want to add a few
seats over the limit.
Ms. Machuga reviewed a timeline for the code revision process:
• May 25, 2011 – Planning Board discussion
• July 13, 2011 – Planning Board hearing
• August 10, 2011 – Planning Board continued hearing
• December 13, 2011 – CS/DS Council Committee discussion
• January 23, 2012 – City Council hearing
Ms. Machuga reviewed the Planning Board’s recommendation:
• Outdoor dining permitted outright if one of the following criteria are met:
1. Site is not directly adjacent to residentially-zoned properties; or
2. Site complies with landscaping requirements along property lines adjacent to residentially-
zoned properties; or
3. Dining area is screened from residential properties by a building and/or 4-foot wall, hedge, or
fence; or
4. Dining area contains no more than 10% of interior seating or 12 seats, whichever is greater.
• If site is adjacent to residentially-zoned property, the dining area shall be closed between 10:00
PM and 7:00 AM
• Requires a Type III-A CUP if requesting exemption from the four criteria or the hours of
operation.
• Updated the definition of outdoor dining in the code
Ms. Machuga displayed drawings illustrating what the proposed code language would allow with regard
to screening for a restaurant with outdoor dining adjacent to residentially-zoned property. She noted if a
restaurant wanted outdoor dining and did not provide landscaping/screening, they could seek a CUP. She
provided several photographs to illustrate how existing outdoor dining areas are screened.
Mayor Earling complimented Ms. Machuga’s presentation and also requested staff footnote acronyms in
their presentations in the future.
Councilmember Buckshnis asked if the zoning where Rory’s is located allows them to have outdoor
dining later than 10:00 p.m. Ms. Machuga answered Rory’s is in the Downtown Business (BD) zone and
does not have the limitation on hours in the outdoor dining code because it is not directly adjacent to
residentially-zoned property. Any outdoor dining area is subject to the City’s noise ordinance.
Councilmember Buckshnis observed Rory’s could have outdoor dining until 2:00 a.m. Ms. Machuga
answered yes. She recalled Rory’s had a CUP in 2004 for a potential additional/remodel that eventually
did not occur which limited their hours.

Councilmember Bloom asked whether the $1500 fee applied only to the CUP. Ms. Machuga agreed it did.
Councilmember Bloom asked if there was any fee associated with applying for outdoor dining. Ms.
Machuga answered a permit would not be required if the restaurant was adding seats to an existing area
but there may be fees associated with the creation of a new outdoor dining area that requires design
review. Those fees are much less expensive compared to a CUP.
Mayor Earling opened the public participation portion of the public hearing.
Pam Stuller, Richmond Beach, owner of Walnut Street Coffee, expressed her support for the proposed
change to the code language. She anticipated the change would encourage a more lively and interactive
downtown which is beneficial to small businesses as well as residents.
Roger Hertrich, Edmonds, questioned the purpose of the 4-foot fence, commenting a fence in a
residential area was required to be 5-feet. He pointed out most of the examples staff provided buffered the
outdoor dining area from the street and none of them illustrated an outdoor dining area adjacent to a
residentially-zoned property. He questioned whether consideration had been given to outdoor dining in
buildings downtown where there is residential on the second floor. He questioned whether there was a
difference between dining and drinking in outdoor dining areas.
Hearing no further comment, Mayor Earling closed the public participation portion of the public hearing.
Councilmember Plunkett asked if the fence for an outdoor dining area adjacent to a residentially-zoned
property was only required to be 4 feet in height. Ms. Machuga answered that was the Planning Board’s
recommendation for one of the four criteria; the 4-foot fence would not be required if the outdoor dining
area met the landscaping requirement or have less than 10% of the number of interior seats or 12 seats
whichever is greater. Councilmember Plunkett summarized if the outdoor dining area did not meet the
other criteria, they would be required to have a fence and if the outdoor dining area were adjacent to a
residentially-zoned property, the fence would only be 4-feet in height. Ms. Machuga agreed.
Councilmember Plunkett asked if the Planning Board or staff discussed the concept of 6-foot fences in
residential areas. Ms. Machuga responded a fence is not required to be 6 feet in height in a residential
neighborhood; that is the maximum height. The Planning Board originally discussed a 6-foot height but
felt more architectural interest could be provided by allowing a 4-foot fence and the business owner could
add a trellis. As one of the examples illustrated, if a 6-foot fence were required, it was feared it would be a
solid plain cedar fence rather than a 4-foot fence with a decorative trellis, flower boxes, etc. The Planning
Board also discussed that the height of people seated in an outdoor dining area is closer to the 4-foot
height. Councilmember Plunkett pointed out it was not required to add a trellis or other architectural
feature above the 4-foot fence adjacent to a house. Ms. Machuga agreed a 4-foot fence with nothing
above could be provided.
Councilmember Petso referred to the four criteria, observing that under the proposed language a
restaurant with 11 outdoor seats adjacent to a house would not require a fence, screening or CUP. Ms.
Machuga agreed.
Councilmember Bloom observed an outdoor dining area adjacent to a residentially-zoned property must
close at 10:00 p.m. Ms. Machuga answered yes, unless they applied for and received a CUP. The CUP is
a Type III-A process before the Hearing Examiner that includes public notice, public hearing, etc. With
regard to adjacent to residentially-zoned property, she clarified that meant a shared property line. There
are few commercial properties downtown directly adjacent to residential properties; there is either a street
or alley separating them. In those cases, the restaurant would meet the first criteria, not directly adjacent
to residentially-zoned property.

COUNCIL PRESIDENT PETERSON MOVED, SECONDED BY COUNCILMEMBER
BUCKSHNIS, TO APPROVE THE PLANNING BOARD’S RECOMMENDATION AND DIRECT
THE CITY ATTORNEY TO PREPARE AN ORDINANCE FOR COUNCIL ADOPTION.
COUNCILMEMBER PETSO, MOVED, SECONDED BY COUNCILMEMBER PLUNKETT, TO
AMEND THE MOTION TO CHANGE THE HOURS FOR SITES ADJACENT TO
RESIDENTIALLY ZONED PROPERTY THAT THE DINING AREA BE CLOSED BETWEEN
9:00 P.M. AND 8:00 A.M.
Councilmember Petso explained the hours she proposed were consistent with the hours in the Home
Occupation Ordinance.
Councilmember Bloom inquired about the Home Occupation Ordinance. Councilmember Petso explained
the City’s Home Occupation Ordinance regulates home-based businesses in residential areas. Those
businesses are required to be closed between 9:00 p.m. and 8:00 a.m. Because outdoor dining areas would
be permitted immediately adjacent to a residential area, she proposed changing the hours to match the
hours in the Home Occupation Ordinance. Councilmember Bloom asked if that requirement was related
to noise. Councilmember Petso responded yes.
THE VOTE ON THE AMENDMENT CARRIED (5-1), COUNCIL PRESIDENT PETERSON
VOTING NO. (Councilmember Fraley-Monillas was not present for the vote).
Councilmember Petso suggested requiring that outright permitted outdoor dining meet both criteria 1 and
4 and either criteria 2 or 3. Student Representative Springer questioned the requirement to meet both
criteria 1 and 4 and the reasoning for changing the hours if a site was not adjacent to residentially-zoned
property. Councilmember Petso explained her intent was if a site is adjacent to residentially-zoned
property, the outdoor dining area would not be permitted outright unless screening was provided.
Student Representative Springer asked if an establishment could apply for a CUP if their outdoor dining
was not outright permitted. Ms. Machuga answered yes. Councilmember Petso suggested if an applicant
did not meet criteria 1 and 4, they be required to apply for a CUP.
Councilmember Buckshnis asked if there were any outdoor dining establishments adjacent to
residentially-zoned property. Ms. Machuga could not think of any. Ms. Machuga clarified under
Councilmember Petso’s proposal, for an outdoor dining area to be allowed outright, it could not be
directly adjacent to residentially-zoned property, there would be a limit on the number of seats and
screening would be required either by landscaping or a fence. She summarized that was just as restrictive
as the existing regulations.
Councilmember Petso commented her proposal would apply to Five Bistro which is adjacent to single
family residential and potential redevelopment in Firdale Village and Five Corners where outdoor dining
could be immediately adjacent to someone’s yard. Ms. Machuga explained there is a single family house
next door to Five Bisto that is on the same Neighborhood Business (BN) zoned lot. Using that as an
example, under the Planning Board’s proposal, outdoor dining would be allowed outright because it
would not be directly adjacent to residentially-zoned property.
With regard to examples of outdoor dining adjacent to residentially-zoned property, Ms. Machuga
referred to examples of CUP granted for Five Bistro, Scott’s Bar & Grill and Penara; none of those are
directly adjacent to residentially-zoned properties. Under the Planning Board’s proposal, they would have
been outright permitted without a CUP. Under Councilmember Petso’s proposal a CUP would be required
due to the number of seats.

January 23, 2012
Page 6
Student Representative Springer questioned the reason for requiring criteria 4, limiting outdoor dining to
10% of interior seating or 12 seats whichever is greater, if the site is not directly adjacent to residentially-
zoned property.
COUNCILMEMBER PETSO MOVED, SECONDED BY COUNCILMEMBER PLUNKETT, TO
AMEND THE MOTION TO ALLOW OUTDOOR DINING TO BE PERMITTED OUTRIGHT
ONLY IF IT MEETS CRITERIA 1 AND ONE OF THE OTHER THREE CRITERIA.
Councilmember Plunkett advised he would support the amendment as the ordinance would come back to
the Council for approval.
Ms. Machuga asked if Councilmember Petso’s intent was outdoor dining would be permitted outright as a
secondary use if the site is not directly adjacent to residentially-zoned property, and it meets one of
criteria 2-4, and outdoor dining directly adjacent to residentially-zoned property would require a CUP
regardless of the number of seats. Councilmember Petso responded that was her intent.
City Attorney Jeff Taraday relayed his understanding of the amendment was any application for outdoor
dining adjacent to residentially-zoned property would require a CUP no matter what. If the application for
outdoor dining was for a property that was not adjacent to residentially-zoned property, it might not need
a CUP as long as one of criteria 2, 3 or 4 is met.
Student Representative Springer commented it was unfair toward businesses adjacent to residentially
zoned property because it forced them to pay the $1500 fee for a CUP. He pointed out the hours for
outdoor dining had already been limited which was sufficient for outdoor dining adjacent to residentially-
zoned property.
Councilmember Plunkett commented it was imminently fair because a business that is next to a residence
should be held to a higher standard.
Council President Peterson agreed with Student Representative Springer. The Planning Board’s proposal
with the change in hours was restrictive enough. The point of the Planning Board’s recommendation was
to create business opportunities; making the regulations more restrictive defeats that purpose. He did not
support the proposed amendment.
UPON ROLL CALL, THE VOTE ON THE AMENDMENT FAILED (3-3); COUNCILMEMBERS
PLUNKETT, BUCKSHNIS AND PETSO VOTING YES; AND COUNCIL PRESIDENT
PETERSON AND COUNCILMEMBERS BLOOM AND YAMAMOTO VOTING NO.
(Councilmember Fraley-Monillas was not present for the vote).
Mr. Taraday explained Mayor Earling was unable to vote to break the tie because this ultimately would
come back to the Council as an ordinance.
Student Representative Springer supported limiting the dining hours to 10:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m., pointing
out during Daylight Savings Time, the sun sets later and limiting dining hours to 9:00 p.m. would require
patrons to be seated by 8:00 p.m. He concluded the 9:00 p.m. time limit reduced access to the outdoor
seating area particularly during the longer summer days.
Councilmember Petso recalled the Home Occupation Ordinance that was adopted in the name of
economic development and the ensuing public outcry about what could occur in a single family
neighborhood. The Council subsequently limited the hours. If someone sited a restaurant off her back
fence and was allowed to have outdoor dining until 10:00 p.m. she would likely have to move as she
would find that highly unsatisfactory.

PETSO VOTING NO. (Councilmember Fraley-Monillas was not present for the vote).
5. AUDIENCE COMMENTS
Laura Spehar, Edmonds, shared a story about a friend who is gay that was a victim of a hit-and-run
accident and whose 20-year partner was not allowed into the emergency room or given information about
her condition because she was not recognized as a relative or spouse. The victim also had no medical
insurance at the time of the accident; her partner worked for the State but was not allowed to include her
partner on her medical insurance policy. She and her husband felt it an unjustified privilege to obtain
medical insurance, rights, marriage certificate, and acceptance when they married only because they are a
non-gay couple. She urged the Council to remember her friends’ story when voting on the resolution in
support of marriage equality and adding marriage equality to the 2012 legislative agenda. She viewed her
friends’ 20-year relationship as a partnership that should be recognized. Unfortunately due to various
beliefs, misinformation, lack of education, the United States is still behind in addressing this issue.
Christopher Querubin, Edmonds, explained he met his spouse in 2007, they became domestic partners
in 2010 and they were married in Connecticut in 2011. He asked for the Council support for the resolution
in support of marriage equality. He has requested a meeting with Senator Paull Shin on Friday. He
supported marriage equality at the state and federal level. His husband is a business owner based in
Edmonds and they hire veterans.
Royce Napolitano, Edmonds, urged the Council to support the resolution in support of marriage
equality, noting there are many families that need this. Although the votes at the state level are promising,
he urged Council to take a stand to demonstrate support from grassroots and not just an overall populous.
Dave Page, Edmonds, spoke regarding the resolution in support of marriage equality. He pointed out the
Council was non-partisan but marriage equality was a partisan issue. He noted various churches in
Edmonds that do not support marriage equality. Observing that the vast majority of the Council’s
constituency was conservative, if the Council did not pass the resolution, the liberals in the community
would call the Council right-wing nuts; if the Council passes the resolution and declare their partisanship,
the right-wing nuts will think the Council are crazy left-leaning liberals. He concluded right or wrong was
not the issue, the legislature will pass marriage equality legislation and there is no need for the Council to
commit on this topic. He requested Council pull this item from the agenda.
Don Hall, Edmonds, expressed concern with the process related to Agenda Items 6 and 10. With regard
to Item 6, he pointed out it was on the Consent Agenda on the Tuesday, January 17 meeting that was
canceled due to snow. He supported the change to place it on the agenda for tonight’s meeting because
when the charge of a commission is being changed, the public should know which Councilmembers want
the changes and why. He questioned whether those in favor of the changes had attended any of the
Economic Development Commission’s (EDC) meetings or discussed their concerns with the commission.
Scheduling such a change on the Consent Agenda was a poor example of open government. With regard
to Agenda Item 10, he commented this is another poor example of open government because the public
was given very little notice this issue would be on the Council agenda, giving no opportunity for the local
newspaper to publish articles and it was not listed as a public hearing. The public has not had an
opportunity to express their opinion unless they did so to the legislature. He concluded Agenda Item 10
was rushed for political reasons, a poor example of open government.
Ron Wambolt, Edmonds, agreed with Mr. Page and Mr. Hall with regard to Agenda Item 10. He
pointed out the Seattle City Council passed a resolution in support of marriage equality and questioned
whether Edmonds wanted to use Seattle as its standard of excellence. With regard to the roundabout, he
explained a preponderance of citizens have expressed opposition to the project. Their opposition is not
Packet Page 10 of 218
Edmonds City Council Draft Minutes
January 23, 2012
Page 8
due to ignorance of roundabouts; it is because the roundabout is not needed and is a make-work project.
He questioned the $2 million estimate to construct the roundabout when only 10% of design had been
completed. Observing the estimated design cost is $500,000 or 25% of the construction cost, he
anticipated the construction cost would be more than $2 million. He requested one of the three
Councilmembers who voted in favor of the roundabout, Councilmembers Buckshnis, Fraley-Monillas and
Peterson, propose a motion for reconsideration and to hold another public hearing.
Jeff Coe, Edmonds, spoke with regard to the resolution in support of marriage equality, and objected to
the use of religion against marriage equality. As a person of faith, he knew the repercussions of using
religion against marriage equality and that religion in and of itself was not able to change his core value
as a person. He was thankful the state was considering the issue of marriage equality as it was not right or
just that he as a gay man did not have the same rights as everyone else. The constitution states everyone is
created equal; he is not equal. He read a statement from Senator Haugen who stated she has strong
Christian beliefs and it is not her role to judge others regardless of her personal beliefs. It was about
representing others including people who may believe differently than she and ensuring everyone has the
same opportunities for love and companionship and family and security that she enjoys. Mr. Coe urged
the Council to take a stand, anticipating in 20-50 years the public would see the right side and like so
many things the Church once believed and held true, they no long believe and hold true.
Jim Wilkinson, Edmonds, commented he emailed Senator Shin last week stating that in his 30-year real
estate career he has paid hundreds of thousands of dollars in taxes and asking why he, a gay man, should
not have the same benefits as others. Many of the arguments are from Christian beliefs and he has studied
theology. He suggested the Council ask themselves what Jesus would think about the money being spent
on this issue when children are going hungry.
Roger Hertrich, Edmonds, stated this is the wrong place to take up the issue of marriage equality; the
state is addressing it. He did not elect the Council to make that type of decision or forward a resolution on
the topic to the legislature. He urged Councilmembers to abstain and allow those who are supporting the
resolution to vote on it. His personal opinion was marriage was different than a civil union and civil
unions gave people all the rights of marriage. With regard to Agenda Item 6, he referred to the first
recommendation Resolution 1224 passed in January 2010 that the City needed a full-time Economic
Development Director. If the Council was not considering a full-time Economic Development Director,
he suggested that recommendations be removed from the list. He also suggested a better description be
provided of the business centers plans that are mentioned in Resolution 1224. He preferred the EDC
pursue the marketing plan for tourism development that is mentioned in Resolution 1224.
Mark Moffitt, Edmonds, urged Council to vote in favor of the resolution supporting marriage equality.
Edmonds has shown it can be progressive on issues such as the environment; the City is now in a position
to make a statement to the community that they support the basic human right for one adult to marry
another adult regardless of gender. Even though the news reports the House and the Senate will pass the
bills, he wanted Edmonds to show they are on the leading edge of positive and progressive change.
6. PROPOSED ORDINANCE AMENDING EDMONDS CITY CODE SECTION 10.75.030(A)(2) TO
READ, "IDENTIFY NEW SOURCES OF REVENUE AS A DIRECT RESULT OF ECONOMIC
DEVELOPMENT PROJECTS FOR CONSIDERATION OF THE CITY COUNCIL."
COUNCILMEMBER PLUNKETT MOVED, SECONDED BY COUNCILMEMBER BUCKSHNIS,
TO ADOPT ORDINANCE NO. 3869, AMENDING EDMONDS CITY CODE, TITLE 10.75.030
RELATED TO THE CITIZENS ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION.
Councilmember Buckshnis asked staff to address Mr. Hertrich’s question regarding a full-time Economic
Development Director. Community Services/Economic Development Director Stephen Clifton explained
Packet Page 11 of 218
Edmonds City Council Draft Minutes
January 23, 2012
Page 9
he has been functioning as the Economic Development Director since November 2007. With the number
of hours he puts in, he considered himself a full-time Economic Development Director. He also serves as
the Community Services Director and receives a full-time salary to perform those two capacities.
With regard to the scheduling of this item on the agenda, Council President Peterson explained the
Council originally discussed and approved the proposed language change on December 20. It is the
Council’s practice to schedule ordinances on matters the Council has previously approved on the Consent
Agenda. It was rescheduled on the agenda at the request of a Councilmember to allow discussion.
Although he initially voted in favor of the language change, he no longer supported the change due to his
concern it was too restrictive to allow the Economic Development Commission (EDC) to proceed with a
number of projects they have been discussing. He preferred to leave that discussion for the retreat as well
as hear more from EDC members about the proposed language change. The EDC and next steps will be
an agenda item on the Council’s February 2 and 3 retreat.
Councilmember Plunkett expressed support for the proposed language change which directs the EDC to
identify new sources of revenue as a direct result of economic development. He recalled Councilmember
Wilson agreed this was the intent of the EDC, to concentrate on economic development. The Council will
discuss economic development and appointments to the EDC at the retreat. He intended to appoint a
person already serving on the EDC as he did not want a wholesale change. The proposed language simply
clarifies the intent of the Council with regard to the EDC.
Councilmember Yamamoto, former Chair of the EDC, questioned why this change was being made now
when the EDC has been in place since June 2009. As Council President Peterson stated, the proposed
language limits the EDC’s creativity. The EDC needs to be creative and think outside the box. The
purpose of economic development is to create new revenues which is difficult to do without thinking
outside the box.
(Councilmember Fraley-Monillas arrived at the meeting at 8:35 p.m.)
Councilmember Bloom expressed similar concerns as those expressed by Council President Peterson and
Councilmember Yamamoto, questioning the need to change the language. She preferred to have further
discussion before voting and will vote no at this time.
Councilmember Petso explained her understanding was the language change was in part brought about
because the EDC was proposing new taxes and fees rather than focusing on economic development.
Councilmember Bloom asked for more specifics regarding taxes and fees. Councilmember Plunkett
responded the EDC was put in place for economic development. The EDC recently made a proposal to
tax or charge a person or their insurance company if they called 911. To him, that was not economic
development. The EDC, according to the Councilmember who proposed the commission, was to focus on
economic development, expanding possibilities. He recognized Councilmember Bloom’s interest in
promoting tourism, commenting the EDC has not said much about that recently. The EDC has made a
proposal for taller buildings under certain conditions and generate revenue via a pass along to insurance
companies; neither of which he viewed as economic development. The EDC has not addressed how to
enhance and improve the arts, the parks, the walkways, the beaches, or how to bring more people into
town to shop and generate more taxes.
Councilmember Plunkett pointed out the Council appropriated $100,000 to the EDC for economic
development and that is what they should concentrate on. The proposed language simply ensures the
EDC’s ideas address economic development. He summarized he could develop a lot of ways to tax
residents such as casinos, parking meters, a B&O tax, or a charge for calling 911, all without a $100,000
Packet Page 12 of 218
Edmonds City Council Draft Minutes
January 23, 2012
Page 10
appropriation to the EDC. He wanted the EDC to develop out of the box, expansive economic
development ideas. He supported having further discussion regarding economic development at the
retreat. If the EDC does not talk about economic development and economic development only, their
charge is too broad.
Councilmember Fraley-Monillas expressed support for having an open dialogue at the Council retreat.
Councilmember Yamamoto commented there may be a misunderstanding about what economic
development is. Economic development includes fundraising and generating new revenue and creating
new revenues streams. He agreed with having further discussion at the retreat.
Councilmember Plunkett agreed with having further discussion at the retreat as well as approving the
proposed ordinance.
UPON ROLL CALL, MOTION FAILED (3-3-1), COUNCILMEMBERS BUCKSHNIS,
PLUNKETT AND PETSO VOTING YES; COUNCIL PRESIDENT PETERSON AND
COUNCILMEMBERS BLOOM AND YAMAMOTO VOTING NO; AND COUNCILMEMBER
FRALEY-MONILLAS ABSTAINING.
Mayor Earling explained because the vote is in regard to an ordinance, he cannot vote to break the tie.
Councilmember Plunkett voiced a point of order, stating the only reason Councilmember Fraley-Monillas
had to abstain was lack of knowledge. This ordinance was in the Council packet and had been a topic of
discussion in December. Councilmember Fraley-Monillas responded she was not present for the
Council’s entire discussion regarding this item. Councilmember Plunkett clarified the motion was to
change the language to “identify new source of revenue that are a direct result of economic development
projects for consideration of the City Council.”
Council President Peterson suggested including a discussion regarding the language change on the retreat
agenda.
Councilmember Fraley-Monillas advised she did not feel she had enough information to vote on the
motion. She preferred to discuss it further at the Council retreat.
Mayor Earling suggested this item be scheduled for action on a future agenda following discussion at the
retreat.
7. PRESENTATION BY CITY ATTORNEY REGARDING OVERVIEW OF LAWS RELATING TO
COUNCILMEMBERS.
City Attorney Jeff Taraday explained the purpose of this presentation was to assist Councilmembers with
identifying issues in their role. He advised there were several informative publications regarding
municipal law available on the Municipal Research Services Center website.
With regard to the Appearance of Fairness Doctrine (AFD), Mr. Taraday explained the AFD arises for
Councilmembers in Edmonds more often than in other cities because Edmonds Councilmembers have
more opportunity to touch the land use process than Councilmembers in other cities. The purpose of the
AFD is that land use processes be fair and appear to be fair. Most of the time Councilmembers act as
legislators when addressing policy and budget issues and can be lobbied by their constituents on those
matters and need not disclose that lobbying before voting on an ordinance. The AFD recognizes that
Councilmembers are occasionally required to act as judges. As a quasi-judge, it is important for
Packet Page 13 of 218
Edmonds City Council Draft Minutes
January 23, 2012
Page 11
Councilmembers to remember to be impartial and hear both sides of the story before making a decision
on a land use matter.
Mr. Taraday clarified not all land use matters have the potential to come to the Council. He referenced a
table in ECDC 20.01.003(B) that identifies the procedures for development project permit application and
the City Council’s potential role in those applications. Type III-B permits, which include essential public
facilities, shoreline permits, variances, preliminary formal plat, and preliminary Planned Residential
Developments, have the potential to come before the Council on a closed record appeal. The Council has
the potential to sit as appellate judges when the Hearing Examiner has already made a decision on a land
use application and someone files an appeal. As an appellate judge, the Council cannot take new evidence
and must make their decision based on the record created by the Hearing Examiner after hearing
arguments from the parties. For example if a person began talking to a Councilmember about a variance
coming before the Hearing Examiner, a Councilmember must remember that it has the potential to come
to the Council on appeal. He suggested whenever a Councilmember was not certain, they check whether
the permit could come to the Council on appeal.
With regard to Type IV-A permit applications which include final formal plat and final Planned
Residential Developments, there is a staff presentation to Council and a vote. No hearing is held because
it is not a discretionary decision at that point; the discretion has occurred during the preliminary plat
process. The final plat process is simply to ensure that the preliminary plat has been complied with.
Type IV-B permit applications which include site specific rezones are also closed record hearings before
the Council but unlike the closed record appeal hearing described above, these are closed record pre-
decision hearings. In this case Councilmembers are sitting as judges, no decision has been made and the
Planning Board has provided a recommendation. Again, the Council cannot take new evidence. He
clarified if anyone tried to talk to a Councilmember about a site specific rezone, those always come to the
Council and a Councilmember should not discuss it outside the hearing. The constituent interested in
talking to a Councilmember will have an opportunity to do so at the hearing. He referred to a potential
exception in the AFD contained in RCW 42.36.070 with regard to site specific rezone applications. The
statute states participation by a member of a decision-making body in earlier proceedings that result in an
advisory recommendation to a decision-making body shall not disqualify that person from participating in
any subsequent quasi judicial proceeding. The language appears to suggest a Councilmember could
participate in an open record hearing at the Planning Board on a site specific rezone application. As the
City Attorney he did not recommend that as the AFD is intended to ensure proceedings are fair and
appear to be fair. He urged the Council to use caution as there is no case law interpreting the statute.
Councilmember Petso asked whether Robin Hood Lanes was an action that potentially could come before
the Council. Mr. Taraday answered he was not certain what project was being proposed for that property.
Councilmember Petso responded her understanding was Walgreens and a bank. Mr. Taraday clarified he
was uncertain what land use application they will apply for. If hypothetically she received an email,
Councilmember Petso asked how the email should be treated. Mr. Taraday answered an email cannot be
unreceived. He suggested Councilmembers keep such emails because they may need to be disclosed in
the future. He explained a Councilmember should not have ex parte contact with a proponent or opponent
of a land use application. If that happens, he suggested the Councilmember make a note of the contact,
who it was with, when it occurred and the substance and at the time of the AFD disclosure process,
Councilmembers who have had inadvertent ex parte contact can disclose them. Placing the substance of
the communication on the record allows the other parties to rebut the substance of the communication.
Type V permit applications are not quasi judicial, they are purely legislative. These include area-wide
rezones, zoning text amendments, development regulations, Comprehensive Plan amendments, etc.
Councilmembers are free to talk to anyone they wish about those matters. He explained if a rezone is
Packet Page 14 of 218
Edmonds City Council Draft Minutes
January 23, 2012
Page 12
proposed for only one site, it is probably a site-specific rezone regardless of the amount of land associated
with the rezone. If the Council is considering changing the zoning in a significant area, that would be an
area-wide rezone.
Mr. Taraday recommended Councilmembers avoid as much as possible having contact with proponents
and opponents of a project. If a Councilmember is approached by a person regarding a matter that could
come before the Council, the Councilmember should explain that although they want to be responsive to
their concerns, the person will have an opportunity to describe their concerns at the public hearing.
Also with regard to the AFD, a Councilmember must disclose any personal interest in a land use
application. Personal interest can include financial gain, property ownership, employment by an interested
person, prospective employment by an interested person, association or membership ties, and family or
social relationship.
Prejudgment is an issue associated with AFD. It is important when sitting as a judge that Councilmembers
be as honestly open minded about an application as possible. If a Councilmember feels they cannot be
open minded and have already made up their mind before the hearing, they should recuse themselves.
Bias is similar to prejudgment; Councilmembers should ask themselves whether a fair-minded person
observing the proceedings would be able to conclude that everyone who should be heard had been heard
and the decision-makers gave reasonable faith and credit to all matters presented according to the weight
and force that they were reasonably entitled to receive.
With regard to the Open Public Meetings Act (OPMA), Councilmember Petso explained she has tried to
restrict her communication via email to only two Councilmembers. Other Councilmembers have been told
they can blind carbon copy (bcc) each other to talk to everyone at once. Mr. Taraday explained a meeting
is not necessarily a meeting in the Council Chambers. An illegal Council meeting can occur if a quorum
of the Council is transacting the official business of City which can include a discussion. Councilmember
Petso asked why a bcc is okay but an email conversation without the bcc is not. Mr. Taraday answered it
will depend on how the bcc is used. The purpose of a bcc is to ensure that email communication is one
way. It is permissible to passively receive information outside a Council meeting via email, mail, etc.
under the OPMA. As soon as passive receipt of information morphs into discussion, it is a meeting and if
that meeting involves a quorum, it is an illegal meeting under the OPMA. For example when he emails
the Council, he bccs the Council to prevent an accidental violation of the OPMA via a Reply All response
to all Councilmembers.
Councilmember Plunkett provided another example: she was exchanging emails with two
Councilmembers regarding an agenda topic and a fourth Councilmember offered to join the discussion.
She asked if she could have a discussion with the fourth Councilmember outside a public meeting. Mr.
Taraday answered it may depend on how Councilmember Petso talked to the fourth Councilmember. It
would not be acceptable for her to forward the emails she had exchanged with the two Councilmembers
to the fourth Councilmember because the fourth Councilmember would then see the discussion between
the other three Councilmembers. Conversely it may not constitute a violation of the OPMA if
Councilmember Petso were to talk to the fourth Councilmember about the same issue. The OPMA
anticipates there will be some one-on-one communication between Councilmembers, for example the
Council President communicating one-on-one with Councilmembers regarding the retreat agenda.
Councilmember Petso summarized she could talk to the fourth Councilmember about the topic as long as
she did not reference the discussion she had with the other two Councilmembers. Mr. Taraday responded
it would be problematic if Councilmember Petso were to say to the fourth Councilmember that she had
just talked to the two Councilmembers and she had their votes on an issue and needed his vote.
Councilmember Petso could lobby the fourth Councilmember for his vote but could not relay the
discussion with other two Councilmembers.
Packet Page 15 of 218
Edmonds City Council Draft Minutes
January 23, 2012
Page 13
Councilmember Fraley-Monillas explained she attended a function yesterday where four Councilmembers
from another city were in attendance. When she pointed out they had a quorum, they disagreed it was a
quorum because they were not talking about city business. Mr. Taraday agreed if they were not
transacting official business. Councilmember Fraley-Monillas restated four Councilmembers could be at a
function as long as they were not discussing city business. Mr. Taraday responded there is some legal
authority to support that position; as long as the Councilmembers are not transacting the official business
of the city, four Councilmembers could attend a social event, a sporting event, etc. He cautioned against
that because although technically allowed, constituents may not believe that Councilmembers are not
discussing city business. He concluded much of it is perception.
The time allotted for this item expired. Council President Peterson advised there will be time at the retreat
for questions regarding this topic.
8. AUTHORIZATION FOR MAYOR TO SIGN A TWO YEAR (2012-2013) INTERLOCAL
AGREEMENT FOR THE LAKE BALLINGER/MCALEER CREEK WATERSHED FORUM AND
AUTHORIZE $1,600 PER YEAR FOR ADMINISTRATIVE COSTS.
Public Works Director Phil Williams explained the City had an interlocal agreement (ILA) with a number
of local jurisdictions since 2008. The primary participants have been Mountlake Terrace, Lake Forest
Park and Edmonds; Snohomish County, Shoreline and Lynnwood also participated in the previous ILA.
Those three entities have not been active partners and Shoreline and Lynnwood have chosen not to
participate in the proposed ILA; Snohomish County is considering participating. Lake Forest Park and
Mountlake Terrace are participating and staff recommends Edmonds also participate. This is a two year
ILA; the City expected financial participation is up to $1600/year which provides funds for Mountlake
Terrace to fund clerical/administrative support for the forum meetings. The previous ILA was $2400/year.
The purpose of the ILA is to identify and implement projects and programs that will assist the entire
watershed, both the upper watershed that Edmonds is most interested in that extends from the I-5 culvert,
up McAleer Creek to the weir, all of Lake Ballinger and the upstream drainage for Lake Ballinger. Lake
Forest Park is more interested in the lower reaches of McAleer Creek. The coalition was formed to
identify projects to allow Lake Ballinger to recover, stop flooding and improve water quality as well as
identify funding sources. The previous ILA also included a $10,000 contribution toward hiring a local
lobbyist who along with representatives from three cities went to Washington D.C. to lobby the federal
congressional delegation seeking funds via a Water Resource and Development Act update. That was
unsuccessful and those efforts may continue this year. Councilmember Petso is taking Councilmember
Wilson’s place on the forum and could propose that the City participate in providing funds to hire a
lobbyist in the future.
COUNCILMEMBER PETSO MOVED, SECONDED BY COUNCILMEMBER FRALEY-
MONILLAS, TO AUTHORIZE THE MAYOR TO SIGN A TWO YEAR (2012-2013)
INTERLOCAL AGREEMENT FOR THE LAKE BALLINGER/MCALEER CREEK
WATERSHED FORUM AND AUTHORIZE $1,600 PER YEAR FOR ADMINISTRATIVE COSTS.
MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY.
9. CONCESSIONS IN PARKS, EDMONDS CITY CODE CHANGES.
Parks & Recreation Director Carrie Hite explained the proposal is to amend Edmonds City Code 4.04 to
allow concessions in City parks. She previously briefed the Council, Planning Board and CS/DS
Committee regarding the proposed amendments. Given the economy and the budget, this is opportunity to
enter into concession agreements with businesses to provide revenue as well as maintain service levels.
The proposed changes give the authority to the Mayor to enter into concession agreements that are, 1)
consistent with the Parks, Recreation and Open Space Plan, 2) located in regional and community parks,
3) granted seasonally and reviewed and renewed annually, and 4) take into consideration the impact on
Packet Page 16 of 218
Edmonds City Council Draft Minutes
January 23, 2012
Page 14
the park, impact on neighbors, amenities and conveniences added to the park, liability issues, and cost
benefit. She requested the Council consider the changes and grant the Mayor the authority to enter into
concession agreements.
Councilmember Buckshnis asked if concession agreements could be reviewed by the City Council rather
than authorizing the Mayor to enter into concession agreements. Ms. Hite answered the current code
allows for concessions in parks via a process of posting signs, holding a public hearing, and approval
from the Council. The proposed changes simplify and accelerate the process. Bringing an item to Council
requires two months due to the requirement to first bring it to a committee meeting and then to the full
Council. The proposal is to have an opening for concessions January through June as concessionaires
express interest and as they fit within the Parks, Recreation and Open Space Plan and to be able to
expedite that process.
Councilmember Buckshnis asked how a situation where there are two competing concessions will be
handled. Ms. Hite explained concessionaires will be interviewed with regard to how they meet the
criteria. Councilmember Buckshnis asked if favoritism could occur. Ms. Hite answered that was possible
but she anticipated a committee similar to what was used to hire staff where applicants were objectively
evaluated. The committee will review the evaluation criteria and forward a recommendation to the Mayor.
Councilmember Fraley-Monillas commented the CS/DS Committee, comprised of Councilmember Petso
and her, discussed the proposed change at their January meeting. The City has a concession agreement
with the Hula Hut near the ferry holding lanes. The CS/DS Committee suggested doing this for a year and
making changes if problems arise.
Councilmember Petso asked if the Taste of Edmonds or Edmonds Arts Festival were seasonal
concessions or would Council still approve those contracts. Ms. Hite answered those were special events
that the Council approves.
Councilmember Yamamoto asked what type and size concessioners would be considered. Ms. Hite
answered the current code does not limit the type or size; consideration will be given to the footprint they
would occupy, the impact on the park, the liability and risk, etc. For example the City would not bring in
bouncy houses, jet skis, etc. because they were higher risk and the City’s insurance, WCIA, did not allow
them. Concessionaires that would be considered include both food and recreational amenities. For
example someone approached the city in June 2011 interested in renting paddle boats at Marina Park.
There was not enough time in the season to pursue this due to the length of time to present the proposal to
Council committee and the Council. There are private day camps and boot camps that currently operate in
City parks; they do not pay for use of the parks although they do have an impact on the parks. The
concession agreement allows the City to, 1) be compensated for the use of public land, and 2) ensure the
people operating in public parks also carry liability insurance.
COUNCILMEMBER FRALEY-MONILLAS MOVED, SECONDED BY COUNCILMEMBER
BUCKSHNIS, TO ADOPT ORDINANCE NO. 3869, AMENDING THE PROVISIONS OF ECC
4.04 TO ALLOW FOR EXPANDED USES AND SIMPLIFIED PROCEDURES FOR CERTAIN
SEASONAL CONCESSION AGREEMENTS. MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY.
10. RESOLUTION IN SUPPORT OF MARRIAGE EQUALITY AND ADDING MARRIAGE
EQUALITY TO THE 2012 LEGISLATIVE AGENDA
Council President Peterson expressed his appreciation for the comments and emails for and against the
resolution and questioning the process. He agreed the issue arose quickly because there is a short
legislative timeframe and Councilmember Plunkett and he felt it was important if the resolution passes to
forward it to the City’s elected representatives to show the City Council’s support of SB 6239 and HB
Packet Page 17 of 218
Edmonds City Council Draft Minutes
January 23, 2012
Page 15
2516. This issue was not on too many peoples’ radar until the Governor expressed her support early this
year, otherwise the Council may have had a more in-depth discussion in December as part of the 2012
legislative agenda.
Councilmember Bloom inquired about the process if the Council approved the resolution. Mayor Earling
explained if the Council approved the resolution, Councilmembers who support the resolution will sign it
and the resolution will be forwarded to the state legislature.
Councilmember Bloom commented she has thought about this a lot. She wholeheartedly supports
marriage equality as a private citizen but did not believe the citizens of Edmonds have given her the
authority to speak on their behalf to the state legislature. She indicated she will abstain from the vote on
the resolution.
Councilmember Yamamoto agreed with Councilmember Bloom and also planned to abstain from the
vote. He did not feel this was the proper venue or appropriate to make a Councilmember vote on a
controversial issue regardless of their own views. The Council is charged with making policy and
spending the taxpayers’ money wisely. The resolution regarding marriage equality does not affect the
City’s daily operations and he was uncertain how the citizens of Edmonds felt about the issue. He feared
the Council taking a position on this may open the door to requests for the Council to take a position on
similar issues which raises the question who decides when and on what issues it was appropriate for the
Council to take a position.
Councilmember Petso indicated she would also abstain from the vote.
Councilmember Fraley-Monillas commented this issue is not outside the City’s business. She supported
the Council standing up for the equitability of all people no matter who they love. She supported the
resolution wholeheartedly; sending the resolution to the legislature states the City Council supports
people and who they love. She has received public comment from both sides of the issue in making her
decision. Senator Haugen supports the bill.
Councilmember Buckshnis thanked everyone who emailed, called and spoke tonight. She recalled one
person who said it should not be a human rights issue and that the Council should not be involved in
issues such as this. She recalled in 2009 the Council passed Resolution 1202 that allowed Snohomish
County to create a Citizens Human Rights Commission. She commented on her 70-year old gay aunt who
has been with the same partner for 50 years and her partner now has Alzheimer’s. Her two conservative,
Christian, Republican brothers both accept that situation. She expressed support for the resolution and
suggested everyone just let it go and not make it an issue.
COUNCIL PRESIDENT PETERSON MOVED, SECONDED BY COUNCILMEMBER
PLUNKETT, TO ADOPT RESOLUTION NO. 1271, A RESOLUTION OF SUPPORT FOR
MARRIAGE EQUALITY.
Councilmember Plunkett commented it is up to the Council to decide whether to take up issues such as
this. The Council recently voted to oppose coal trains traveling through Edmonds although there is
nothing the Council can do about it. In the past the Council has expressed their support for the Kyoto
treaties and forming a Human Rights Commission, issues that are not before the legislature. The City
pays a lobbyist to lobby for the City; this will be added to the 2012 legislative agenda. He concluded this
has more to do with City business than many of the other resolutions the City Council has passed.
Councilmember Plunkett commented government does not give people their rights; their rights come
from nature and the God of nature. Most governments oppress or take rights. In the Western culture
Packet Page 18 of 218
Edmonds City Council Draft Minutes
January 23, 2012
Page 16
government supports human rights. One of those rights is the right of association; individuals have a right
to associate with whomever they want, association in general and personal relationships.
Councilmember Plunkett and Council President Peterson read the proposed resolution:
A Resolution of Support for Marriage Equality
Whereas, marriage equality is a basic civil right, and;
Whereas, marriage equality provides legal and economic protections including access to health care, parenting
rights, and property rights, and;
Whereas, marriage equality protects children and families, and;
Whereas, the United States Supreme Court has said, “The freedom to marry has long been recognized as one of the
vital personal rights essential to the orderly pursuit of happiness,” and;
Whereas, civil unions and domestic partnerships represent significant advances toward recognition of same-sex
relationships, but they are not a substitute for full and equal marriage, and;
Whereas, marriage equality is about civil marriage, not religious marriage, and;
Whereas marriage is a powerful and important affirmation of love and commitment, a source of social support and
recognition, and the legal protections which are invaluable to the safety and security of every family; therefore
Be it resolved that the Edmonds City Council fully supports Marriage Equality in the State of Washington, and;
Be it further resolved that support of Marriage Equality be added to the Edmonds 2012 Legislative Agenda, and;
Be it further resolved that this Resolution be sent to all of our State representatives.
THE VOTE ON THE MOTION CARRIED (4-0-3), COUNCILMEMBERS BLOOM, PETSO AND
YAMAMOTO ABSTAINING.
Mayor Earling asked whether a signature line for the Councilmembers who abstained and himself should
appear on the resolution. City Attorney Taraday responded the four who voted in favor of the resolution
could sign the resolution and Mayor Earling could choose whether to sign. The three Councilmembers
who abstained requested their name with a blank signature line not appear on the resolution.
Mayor Earling commented the core mission in the City is to ensure the day-to-day operations are met
with regard to public safety, infrastructure, long term planning and land use issues. The resolution
addresses a state issue that is currently under discussion and which now appears to have the needed votes
to pass both the State House and Senate and apparently the Governor is ready and willing to sign the
legislation. If he were in the legislature, he would probably support the legislation; he has a history of
supporting this type of issue including support for domestic partnership legislation. Because he is not a
member of the legislature but rather an elected representative of the City of Edmonds, he has a different
core mission. For that reason he will not sign the resolution.
11. REPORT ON CITY COUNCIL COMMITTEE MEETINGS OF DECEMBER 30, 2011 AND
JANUARY 10,2012
Finance Committee
Councilmember Buckshnis reported at their December 30 meeting, the Committee discussed two
amendments to the Seattle Fiber Partners Agreement that was approved on the Consent Agenda. At their
January 10 meeting the Committee discussed the City joining the Economic Alliance of Snohomish
County; authorization was approved on the Consent Agenda. Staff reviewed an update to the purchasing
policy, a quarterly update on fiber optic opportunities and the investment policy; all of which were
approved on the Consent Agenda. Staff also provided the Committee a General Fund update.
Community Services/Development Services Committee
Councilmember Petso reported the Committee discussed the Recycling Grant Agreement between
Edmonds and the Washington State Department of Ecology for 2012-2013, the Interlocal Agreement for
Lake Ballinger/McAleer Creek Watershed Forum and Concessions in Parks which were all approved on
tonight’s agenda. The Committee also discussed allowing bed and breakfast establishments in single
family neighborhoods. The Committee recommended further study by the Planning Board.

Public Safety & Human Resources Committee
Councilmember Plunkett reported staff briefed the Committee on reclassification of six SEIU union
positions, four reclassifications (non-represented) and two classification in the SEIU union. If it is
determined that the two positions will be subject to union membership, it will be a topic for an executive
session.
12. MAYOR'S COMMENTS
Mayor Earling reported there will be an executive session prior to tomorrow’s Council meeting beginning
at 5:45 p.m. The regular meeting will begin at 6:15 p.m.
Mayor Earling thanked staff, particularly Public Works, Public Safety and Parks for the magnificent job
they did last week during the snow, literally working 24 hours a day to stay ahead of an incessant
snowfall.
Mayor Earling suggested the public may want to watch the Governor’s proposed transportation package.
Two bills, HB 2660 and SB 6455, provide an extensive transportation improvement plan crafted by the
Governor. The primary increase comes from a $1.50 tax on oil. Most of the funds generated would be
used for preservation and maintenance of the State’s current transportation system.
13. COUNCIL COMMENTS
Councilmember Plunkett requested the agenda for the retreat and possibly tomorrow’s Council meeting
include discussion regarding ending the Economic Development Commission.
Councilmember Buckshnis thanked Public Works for their efforts during the snow. She also commended
Finance Director Shawn Hunstock for his efforts that include answering citizens’ inquires, saving $50,000
on insurance, and refinancing the bonds. Mr. Hunstock is the current President of the Puget Sound
Finance Officers Association. She looked forward to working with him to improve the transparency of the
City’s finances.
Council President Peterson commended Public Works as well as the IT Department for the tweets from
Public Works staff and information on the City’s website that kept citizens updated during the snow.
With regard to Agenda Item 10, Council President Peterson understood and appreciated that some
Councilmembers and citizens feel that this was not what the Council should be discussing. He pointed out
the importance of quality of life Edmonds; marriage equity is a quality of life issue and the resolution
sends a message to families of all types that Edmonds is a welcoming community that wants everyone to
feel safe and secure. That is one of his most important duties as an elected official.
Councilmember Fraley-Monillas was proud the City Council took a stand that needed to be taken. She
was also excited about concessions in parks, recalling when she introduced Music in the Parks this
summer, people often commented there was no place to get food or drinks. Concessions will be good for
the City and for the citizens.
Mayor Earling recognized City Engineer Rob English who was elected the new Cities' Co-Chair for the
Snohomish County Infrastructure Coordinating Committee

4. REPORT ON REGIONAL FIRE AUTHORITY
Millie Judge, Fire District 1 (FD1) Commissioner, introduced Brad Reading, Assistant Fire Chief,
FD1. Commissioner Judge explained the purpose of this presentation was a Regional Fire Authority
(RFA) 101. All the participating jurisdictions have been asked to review this presentation to assist
Councilmembers and the public in understanding the process of creating an RFA, why create an RFA and
what an RFA will look like if one is formed.
Commissioner Judge explained there are currently nine jurisdictions in south Snohomish County
exploring the possibility of creating an RFA. An RFA is a special purpose district created by a vote of the
people. The vision statement is: The RFA Planning Committee will create a plan to deliver the highest
quality fire protection and emergency medical services to the communities of south Snohomish County in
the most efficient and effective manner. The vision statement focuses on better effective service,
maintaining and enhancing existing services levels and looking for efficiencies. The following cities are
currently participating in the Planning Committee:
• Brier
• Edmonds
• Lynnwood
• Mill Creek
• Mountlake Terrace
• Mukilteo
• Woodway
• Snohomish County Fire District 1
• Snohomish County Fire District 7
Commissioner Judge identified the boundaries of the nine jurisdictions participating in the RFA Planning
Committee, commenting if all nine jurisdictions form an RFA it will be one of the largest fire
departments in the state, spanning 115 square miles and serving more than 350,000 residents.
Commissioner Judge described how fire service is currently provided in south Snohomish County:
• Two city fire departments
o Lynnwood Fire Department
o Mukilteo Fire Department
• Two fire districts
o Snohomish County FD1: serving unincorporated areas plus Brier, Edmonds, Mountlake
Terrace and Woodway
o Snohomish County FD7: serving unincorporated areas plus the city of Mill Creek
# Residents Served Employees Fire Stations Incidents in 2010

FD1 228,513 236 12 19,112
Lynnwood 36,160 57 2 6,351

FD7 68,000 113 7 4,773

Under an RFA, the fire departments and districts would be consolidated to form one fire department to
serve the region: 352,823 citizens, 115 square miles, 6 cities, 1 township and unincorporated areas of
south Snohomish County.
Assistant Chief Reading explained in south Snohomish County fire departments and fire districts already
have automatic aid agreements to back-up each other on emergency calls. When the public calls 9-1-1, the
dispatcher will automatically send the closest firefighters, even if those firefighters might be from a
neighboring agency. To the question of why form an RFA, the automatic aid agreements could go away at
any time if a City Council or Fire District Board chose. Firefighters from south Snohomish County fire
agencies frequently train together and have many common policies and procedures. Agencies also do fire
prevention together; investigators assist each other at fire scenes and if necessary, assist with inspections.
Fire departments participate in regional teams to provide specialized services that would be cost-
prohibitive for each agency to provide on its own such as hazardous materials teams and rescue teams. He
concluded the agencies work seamlessly together on many functions.
Commissioner Judge reviewed reasons to explore regionalization:
• Enhance and sustain service delivery
• Remove duplication
• Provide economies of scale
• Seamless service
Commissioner Judge described how an RFA is created:
• Process to form an RFA is established by state law
• First step: Create the RFA Planning Committee
o Done: March 2010.
o Comprised of 3 elected officials from each participating jurisdiction
• Subcommittees formed to work on finance, level of service and communication
• City Council and Fire District Boards decide if they want to put RFA Work Plan on the ballot for
a vote of the people
• Election occurs, and if voters approve, an RFA is formed
Commissioner Judge clarified the majority vote in the region will prevail. Until a City Council or Fire
District Board decides to commit to the RFA, the entity is not committed to anything. Key issues being
considered by the subcommittees include:
• Sustainable service levels for fire, EMS and all hazard response
• Staffing and facilities plans
• Financing
• Collective bargaining agreements
• Organization structure and governance
• Naming of the new organization
Commissioner Judge reviewed the timeline/key dates:
• March 2012 Finance and Level of Service Plans adopted by RFA Planning Committee
• May 2012 City Councils and Fire District Boards vote on Finance and Level of Service
Plans
• Nov 2012 Organization chart addressed
• Dec 2012 Naming of new organization addressed
• Jan 2013 RFA Governance Plan addressed
• Feb 2013 RFA Work Plan approved by Planning Committee
• March 2013 Collective bargaining agreements addressed
Packet Page 24 of 218
Edmonds City Council Draft Minutes
January 24, 2012
Page 4
• May 2013 City Council and Fire District Boards approve RFA Work Plan and pass ballot
resolutions
• August 2013 ELECTION
• Jan 1 2014 RFA implemented if approved by voters
Commissioner Judge clarified the RFA would be a separate taxing entity. To the extent the City has
expenses today from its budget for fire service, that would no longer occur. Further information regarding
the RFA is available at their website: www.RFA-planning.org.
Councilmember Plunkett referred to the item on the timeline, collective bargaining agreements addressed,
and asked if the RFA could proceed if the unions were not supportive. Commissioner Judge answered
yes; the hope was that a collective bargaining agreement would be in place before subsequent steps take
place. She anticipated if there was disagreement in the collective bargaining process, there would be
mediation and ultimately arbitration. All indications are that the locals are very supportive of this joint
entity due to the long term stability it provides.
Councilmember Fraley-Monillas asked if the process was concluding sooner than expected.
Commissioner Judge answered no; it was anticipated to be a two-year process. It began last year and will
conclude in 2013.
Councilmember Bloom asked whether there would be a vote of the people in each city/district.
Commissioner Judge answered yes. Councilmember Bloom inquired about a majority vote.
Commissioner Judge explained a larger group of voters could overrule a small group of voters; that is one
of the risks of putting the RFA to a vote. For example if voters in Edmonds voted yes and voters in
Lynnwood voted no but Edmonds had more voters and those two entities were the only two voting,
Edmonds voters would prevail. The vote is determined by the majority of all citizens in the boundary.
Councilmember Plunkett hypothesized Edmonds voters could say no and if there were enough voters in
the remainder of the geographical area that said yes, regardless of how Edmonds voted, they would be
part of the RFA. Commissioner Judge agreed. The legislation that created the RFA established that
policy.
Council President Peterson asked if there had been any discussion by the legislature regarding a change to
the RFA language. Commissioner Judge answered not this year; last year the legislature established a
process for latecomers.
Councilmember Fraley-Monillas referred to the map of the entities participating in the RFA Planning
Committee and asked what happened if cities in the middle voted not to participate and cities on opposite
sites vote to participate. Commissioner Judge answered it is purely majority rules. Assistant Fire Chief
Reading explained if a City Council or Board decided not to continue with the RFA process, their citizens
would not vote and would not be part of the RFA and the other entities could continue. Once the RFA
goes to the ballot, majority rules.
Councilmember Plunkett asked if a city or fire district could get out of the process after the vote.
Commissioner Judge answered no, once a City Council/Fire District Board agrees to participate, they are
in the RFA and the majority votes decides.
5. AUDIENCE COMMENTS
Ron Wambolt, Edmonds, commented the Citizens Economic Development Commission (EDC), a group
of dedicated, hardworking volunteers, was treated shabbily by a couple Councilmembers at last night’s
meeting. Councilmember Plunkett stated he felt the Commission diluted their mission of economic
development by spending their time to develop a recommendation for a citizen charge for EMS
Packet Page 25 of 218
Edmonds City Council Draft Minutes
January 24, 2012
Page 5
transportation when EMS personnel are called to a home but find there is no need for transportation. Mr.
Wambolt pointed out the EMS proposal took only a minuscule amount of the EDC’s time and virtually all
the work on that proposal was done by Commissioner Darrol Haug. Rather than criticizing the EDC, he
suggested they be commended for identifying a viable source of revenue that no one else has conceived.
He expressed disappointment in Councilmember Buckshnis’ vote to support the unneeded ordinance
charges, pointing out that as Council’s representative on the EDC who has attended their meetings, she
could have explained the situation at last night’s meeting. He hoped at the retreat the Council will extend
the EDC indefinitely similar to other volunteer groups like the Highway 99 Task Force and Citizen
Technology Advisory Committee as there likely will always be a need for economic development.
6. CITY COUNCIL, PLANNING BOARD AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION –
EDMONDS STRATEGIC PLAN & VISIONING RETREAT #2
In addition to the City Council and staff listed above, the following were present for this item:
ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT COMMISSIONERS
Paul Anderson
Bruce Faires
Don Hall
Darrol Haug
Beatrice O’Rourke
Evan Pierce
Kerry St. Clair Ayers
Bruce Witenberg
Marianne Zagorski
PLANNING BOARD MEMBERS
John Reed (Vice Chair)
Kristiana Johnson
Valerie Stewart
Todd Cloutier
Mayor Earling recognized Community Services/Economic Development Director Stephen Clifton and
Executive Assistant Cindi Cruz for their efforts on the Strategic Plan.
Mr. Clifton welcomed everyone to the Strategic Planning and Visioning Retreat #2. He explained the City
Council, with the assistance of the EDC and Planning Board, initiated a process last year to develop a
strategic plan and vision for the city. With the help of community input, the strategic plan will identify
short and mid-term community based priorities, goals and objectives, in addition to outlining specific
methods to achieve them. A plan adopted by the City Council will also identify performance measures to
ensure that the strategic plan’s goals will be realized and identify those who will be responsible for
implementing the plan. An adopted plan can also be used as a decision making tool by the City Council
for focusing financial resources on key priorities.
Mr. Clifton recalled in fall 2011 City staff requested the overall timeline be adjusted in order to create a
more effective process that would take place after the November, 2011 elections, completion of the 2012
budget process, the holidays, and to more fully involve newly elected officials. As such, the October,
2011 Retreat #2 was rescheduled to tonight.
Mr. Clifton provided an overview of what has taken place between Retreat #1 and tonight’s Retreat #2.
Public opinions and priorities are an important part of the strategic planning process. Consequently, the
process calls for the consultant team to conduct a series of interviews and surveys to obtain the opinions
of citizens, business owners, employees, retail customers, young adults, and government officials. These
surveys/interviews provide opportunities for the public to contribute ideas and share their priorities, thus
helping influence the City’s future accordingly. The following has occurred to date:
Packet Page 26 of 218
Edmonds City Council Draft Minutes
January 24, 2012
Page 6
1. Tom Beckwith and Steve Price, Beckwith Consulting Group, have conducted one-on-one interviews
with the City’s last and current mayors, six current City Councilmembers, and with each Department
Director.
2. On December 5, 2011, the City launched Strategic Planning and Visioning Surveys. Links to internet
based surveys have been posted on the front page of the City’s website, EdmondsWA.gov, and
include adult, youth and employee surveys. Customer surveys have been provided for businesses to
hand out and the customer survey is also posted on the City website.
In order to notify or inform the public that surveys are available, a press release was issued in
December, a notice aired on the City’s government channel, images or links were posted on the front
pages of on-line newspapers such as MyEdmondsNews, EdmondsPatch, EdmondsKomo4News, and
EdmondsBeacon, and lastly, the City sent out thousands of e-mails to City residents.
As of today, the number of people who have taken the resident adult survey is up to 419, up from 390
yesterday. Surveys are still underway and adults, young adults, employees and customers are
encouraged to take the surveys.
3. Hard copy business surveys were inserted in over 1,800 business license renewal notices mailed in
December, 2011. The survey letter included an invitation for all employees to take an internet
employee survey.
4. Eighteen stakeholder focus group meetings were also scheduled for last week. Only a few were held
due to snow and most have been rescheduled to January 30, February 1, 2 and 3. Examples of focus
groups include the Senior Center, Port of Edmonds, arts groups, young adults and education,
environment, businesses, transportation, individuals, etc.
Mr. Clifton introduced Tom Beckwith, Eric Hovee and Steve Price, Beckwith Consulting Group, to
present information for Retreat #2.
Mr. Beckwith provided an overview of data to be presented:
• Results of 2010 Census data on demographics
• Result of American Community Survey (ACS) – statistical sampling done by the Census Bureau
which includes more detailed economic and demographic data than what is currently available
from the 2010 Census
• ESRI data compiled from Census, retail sales, and geographical distribution
• Puget Sound Regional Council (PSRC) Economic and Demographic long range projections 1970-
2040
• Startup Strategic Plan public outreach activities – early returns
• Future Strategic Plan public outreach activities
The next retreat will include the remainder of the survey data as well as significant information on
financial data.
EDMONDS US CENSUS 2010

EDMONDS ESRI 2005-2015
Mr. Hovee explained ESRI is a geographic information systems (GIS) company and one of two national
data firms that do self-data on a proprietary basis. One of the advantages they have, especially with the
delay in Census data, is they provide annual estimates and will also customize it to different geography,
and provide some estimates such as retail sales, etc.
Mr. Beckwith reviewed the following data :

Mr. Beckwith described how the retail sales leakage figures are determined by ESRI; ESRI compares the
income profile within the community to larger areas such as the State, Seattle metropolitan area or Puget
Sound and develops an expenditure profile to fit that income. Leakage is determined by comparing that to
sales tax data recorded by Washington State Department of Revenue.
Mr. Beckwith reviewed Edmonds retail sales and leakage (2010) and leakage by Edmonds industry
subsectors with regard to dining, nonstore retailers, miscellaneous, general merchandise, sporting
goods/books/music, apparel, gasoline, health and personal care, grocery, building and supply,
electronics/appliance, home furnishings, motor vehicles and parts. Mr. Beckwith explained one of the
questions for the future will be whether some of this leakage can be recaptured and if so how much, in
what categories and is it worth it. Some of the areas may not be options given the developed character of
Edmonds.
PSRC ECONOMIC & DEMOGRAPHIC FORECAST 1970-2040
Mr. Beckwith reviewed PSRC forecasts for 1970 – 2040 with regard to the following, pointing out these
are pre-recession forecasts:
• Puget Sound household population
• Puget Sound average household size
• Puget Sound percentage of population age 0-4
• Puget Sound population over age 65+
• Population per employee
• Percent of housing multifamily
• Employment by base and service sectors
• Government employment as percentage of total employment
STARTUP STRATEGIC PLAN PUBLIC OUTREACH ACTIVITIES – EARLY RETURNS
Mr. Beckwith explained initial outreach events include focus groups, business surveys, employee surveys,
customer surveys, adult resident internet surveys and young adult resident internet survey. He reviewed
the early results of the adult resident internet survey with regard to the following questions:
• How would you rate Edmonds city governance?
• How would you rate existing employment conditions in Edmonds?
• How would you rate existing safety and security measures in Edmonds?
• How would you rate existing educational services and opportunities in the local Edmonds area?
Packet Page 29 of 218

• How would you rate transportation conditions, facilities and services in Edmonds?
• How would you rate housing market options in Edmonds?
• How would you rate existing park neighborhood recreational facilities and opportunities in
Edmonds?
• How would you rate existing arts and cultural programs in Edmonds?
• How would you rate existing special events in Edmonds?
• How would you rate existing design conditions and appearances in Edmonds?
• How would you rate the level of existing development in Edmonds?
• How would you rate existing sustainability conditions in Edmonds?
• Rate the short term priorities for Edmonds (list provided).
• How important is it to attract types of households (list provided) to live in Edmonds?
• How would you rate maintenance conditions (list provided) overall in Edmonds?
• To what extend do sources (list provided) provide you information about the City government?
FUTURE STRATEGIC PLAN PUBLIC OUTREACH ACTIVITIES
Mr. Beckwith explained at Retreat #3, before the charrette/brainstorming session, the remainder of the
survey results will be provided as well as financial trends emerging in other cities. He encouraged
everyone to attend Retreat #3 as it will include a more interactive discussion.
Councilmember Buckshnis asked how people were prevented from taking the survey multiple times. Mr.
Beckwith answered in their experience it takes a dedicated person to take the survey more than once
because of length. A survey instrument identifies the location where the survey was completed. It is rare
in a comprehensive survey for someone to take it more than once.
Councilmember Buckshnis asked how individuals who do not use a computer could take the survey. Mr.
Beckwith answered there were hard copies available at the library, Francis Anderson Center, etc.
Customer surveys are available via a handout as well as on the internet. Mr. Clifton suggested anyone
interested in completing a hardcopy survey call 771-0220, ask for Community Services Department and
staff will mail them a hardcopy of the survey.
Mr. Beckwith emphasized that although they presented early survey return results tonight, surveying will
continue until they are no longer receiving responses.
Commissioner St. Clair-Aires observed the PSRC data for households in poverty was from 1999. Mr.
Beckwith answered that data is only collected every 10 years; the data from the 2010 census is not yet
available.
Commissioner Zagorski asked when the consultant will begin using the data to develop conclusions and
determine an action plan. Mr. Beckwith answered the data begins to identify topics. Those topics will be
presented at the charrette. Attendees at retreats that follow the charrette will be involved in developing a
plan.
Councilmember Buckshnis asked whether stakeholder focus groups were open to the public. Mr.
Beckwith answered some focus group have 6-8, some have 12-15 or more participants. Anyone can
observe; in order to have enough time, only those who are invited can participate. There are two focus
groups entitled individuals; he encouraged anyone interested in attending to contact Ms. Cruz.
Councilmember Buckshnis asked whether legislators, administrators or the mayor were discouraged from
attending focus groups as participants may not speak as freely. Mr. Beckwith answered it can be more
informative for elected officials to observe rather than participate including at the charrette.

Mr. Clifton thanked the citizens, Councilmembers, Planning Board Members and Economic Development
Commissioners who attended and encouraged them to continue to participate in the process. He
encouraged residents, customers, businesses and employees to take the surveys.

Subject Title
Quarterly report regarding fiber optic opportunities.
Recommendation from Mayor and Staff
For Informational Purposes
Previous Council Action
Resolution 1234 - Support of Continued Development of Fiber Optic Opportunities as a Source of City
Revenue.
Narrative
The August 24, 2010 presentation of "Edmonds Fiber Optic Broadband Initiative - Background and
Update" resulted in Resolution 1234 - setting the policy to review Fiber Optic "opportunity that serves
the interest of the citizenry of Edmonds" and requiring quarterly reports to the Finance Committee.
Progress has been made: SNOCOM is a user of City provided internet services, the Edmonds Center for
the Arts has been connected and testing is proceeding. The Building at 110 James street will soon be
using City provided internet services, a downtown business, and a tenant at the Port of Edmonds is
considering using City of Edmonds fiber for a portion of their business needs. Attachment 1 shows a Dec
31st 2011 snapshot of expenditures to date (minor changes may occur due to month end postings) and,
using these numbers, Attachment 2 shows, with the addition of SNOCOM, the estimated break even date
has moved up to Jan 2015 from Apr 2015.
Expenditures for the 2011 Fiber Optic Budget have been: ISP charges (approx $11,000), Professional
Services ($7,500), and Repairs/Maintenance ($6,160 - which was used to complete internal fiber cross
splices for connectivity between City Hall, Public Safety, and the old fiber end point in Fire station 17).

POLICE UNIFORM CONTRACT
CITY OF EDMONDS
This contract (“Contract”) is made and entered into this _____ day of __________, 20__,
between Blumenthal Uniforms and Equipment (“Blumenthal”), with principal offices located at
20812 International Boulevard, SeaTac, Washington and the City of Edmonds (“the City”), with
principal offices located at 121 Fifth Avenue North, Edmonds, Washington.
WHEREAS, the City desires to contract with a uniform supplier to provide uniform
items for its police employees; and
WHEREAS, the City desires to have Blumenthal, pursuant to certain terms and
conditions, supply the necessary uniform items to outfit the City’s police employees;
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual benefits and conditions hereinafter
contained, the parties hereto agree as follows:
1. Scope of Work: Blumenthal agrees to provide the City with the uniform items
as requested and established by the City in Exhibit A, attached hereto and incorporated herein by
this reference as if set forth in full. Blumenthal must be able to completely outfit new police
employees within seventy-two hours and must make all uniform items, in a wide variety of sizes,
readily available from stock on hand. This Contract does not establish Blumenthal as the sole
source for City purchases, and the City specifically reserves the right to go elsewhere for its
needs if Blumenthal cannot supply the particular item within the times provided herein. The City
may also designate additional suppliers if, by doing so, it obtains the lowest overall price for its
uniform needs. The City reserves the right to engage in non-exclusive contracts with multiple
vendors in order to provide the lowest possible price on a per-item basis.
2. Ordering of Items: The City will designate certain employees as its buyer(s) for
the purposes of ordering items from Blumenthal pursuant to this Contract. The City will so
inform Blumenthal as to the names of these individuals. The City will submit its order by phone
or by facsimile on official letterhead, with any phone orders to be “backed-up” by facsimile as
soon as practicable. Blumenthal is not to accept orders from individual police employees under
the terms of this Contract, except as follows:
Some of the City’s police employees are not covered by the City’s “quartermaster” system.
Some employees receive a uniform allowance so they can individually purchase uniform items
from any vendor as long as the items meet certain standards of the City. Some of these
employees may desire to purchase uniform items from Blumenthal.
Packet Page 131 of 218
Blumenthal agrees to honor prices for items listed in Exhibit A attached hereto for “individual
employee” purchases. However, for Blumenthal to honor this contract price, the City’s
designated buyer(s) will order the items(s) on behalf of the “individual employee” utilizing the
same procedure as specified above. In addition, it will be noted on the order facsimile that this is
an “individual employee” purchase. It will be the responsibility of Blumenthal and the
“individual employee” to agree upon payment terms for any items ordered by the City’s buyer
where the facsimile order specifies an “individual employee” order. The City will not be
responsible for payment of “individual employee” orders.
Under the terms of this Contract, all shoulder patches and bone buttons will be sewn on by
Blumenthal at no charge when a new uniform shirt is purchased. All service stripes and chevrons
will be sewn on at the City’s expense. Tailoring requested by a police employee will be done by
Blumenthal at the City’s expense, provided that an Assistant Chief of Police has first authorized
such tailoring.
3. Term of Contract: Blumenthal shall begin performing the services under the
terms of this Contract effective January 1, 2012, and the Contract will remain in effect until
December 31, 2014, unless terminated earlier pursuant to the terms of Paragraph 8. Blumenthal
retains the right to request price increases on an annual basis, provided that Blumenthal first
provides the City with documentation supporting the price increase, such as information relating
to a price increase from its supplier. The City has the right to deny such a request, but will not
unreasonably do so.
4. Compensation: The City shall pay Blumenthal for the police uniform items
provided pursuant to this Contract, except in the case of “individual employee” purchases as
noted in Paragraph 2, at the price rates established in Exhibit A. All prices listed in Exhibit A
include any charges for delivery to the City. No later than October 1st of each Contract year,
Blumenthal shall provide the City with an updated price list and samples of any items that
replace or supersede any items on the expiring list. The City shall have forty-five (45) days to
review and accept or reject the uniform prices and samples. Blumenthal shall provide the City
with monthly invoices for supplying uniform items. The City shall pay Blumenthal within thirty
days of receipt of each invoice. Invoices shall include the name of each employee for which the
respective uniform items are being provided. Blumenthal agrees that the City will not be billed
for items ordered as “individual employee” purchases as specified in Paragraph 2.
5. Assignment and Subcontract: Blumenthal shall not assign or subcontract to any
person or entity any portion of the services contemplated by this Contract without the City’s
written consent.
6. Independent Contractor: The City and Blumenthal agree that Blumenthal is an
independent contractor with respect to the services provided pursuant to this Contract. Nothing
in this Contract shall be considered to create an employer/employee relationship between the
parties hereto. Neither Blumenthal nor any employee of Blumenthal shall be entitled to any
benefit accorded City employees by virtue of the services provided under this Contract. The City
shall not be responsible for withholding or otherwise deducting Federal Income Tax or Social
Security or contributing to the State Industrial Insurance Program, or otherwise assuming the
duties of an employer with respect to Blumenthal or any employee of Blumenthal.
Packet Page 132 of 218
7. Indemnification: Blumenthal shall protect, defend, save harmless and indemnify
the City and its agents, officers and employees from and against all claims, suits and actions for
all damage or injury arising from the negligent and/or malicious acts, errors or omissions and any
willful, wanton, malicious or intentional tortious conduct on the part of Blumenthal or its agents
and/or employees. Blumenthal further agrees to fully indemnify the City from and against any
and all costs, including attorneys’ fees, of defending such claim or demand. Additionally,
Blumenthal specifically waives its immunity under Title 51 of the Revised Code of Washington,
the Industrial Insurance Act, for injuries to its employees and agrees that the obligation to
indemnify the City extends to any claim, demand or action brought by or on behalf of any
employee of Blumenthal, and includes any judgment, award and costs thereof including
attorneys’ fees incurred. This paragraph shall not apply to damages and claims resulting from the
sole negligence of the City.
8. Termination: The City may terminate this Contract at any time by providing
written notice of termination to the other party. Such termination shall become effective thirty
days after receipt of said notice. In any case whereby this Contract is terminated prior to the
stated expiry date, the City shall provide reasonable compensation to Blumenthal for the uniform
items and services provided pursuant to this Contract and accepted by the City up to the date of
termination.
9. City Review/Approval: Upon delivery to the City of any police uniform items
required by the scope of work identified in Paragraph 1, the City may accept or reject such
uniform items, and may request such modification of said uniform items as it deems appropriate.
To service such modifications, Blumenthal must have on-site tailoring facilities. Blumenthal
shall promptly perform such modifications and correct any defects present in the uniform items.
Blumenthal shall not be entitled to compensation for time devoted to correcting defective police
uniform items.
10. Force Majeure: Neither party shall be considered in default in the performance
of its obligations herein to the extent that the performance of said obligation is prevented or
delayed by any cause, existing or future, which is unforeseen and beyond the reasonable control
of the affected party.
11. Applicable Law and Venue: This Contract shall be governed by and construed
in accordance with the laws of the State of Washington. Venue for any action upon the terms of
this Contract shall be within King County, Washington.
12. Entire Agreement: The City and Blumenthal agree that this Contract is the
complete expression of the terms between the parties hereto and no other agreement, oral or
otherwise, which regards the subject matter of this Contract shall be deemed to exist or to bind
any of the parties hereto. Either party may request changes to this Contract. Proposed changes
that are mutually agreed upon shall be incorporated by written amendment to this Contract.
Packet Page 133 of 218
13. Notice: Whenever it shall be required or permitted that notice or demand be
given or served by either party to this Contract, such notice or demand shall be given or served,
and shall not be deemed to have been duly given or served unless in writing and forwarded by
first-class mail, addressed to the address of the party as specified in the opening paragraph herein.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Blumenthal and the City have caused this Contract to be
executed by the person authorized to act in their respective names.

POLICE UNIFORM CONTRACT
CITY OF EDMONDS
This contract (“Contract”) is made and entered into this _____ day of __________, 20__,
between Kroesens [Full name?](“Kroesens”), with principal offices located at [Address, City,
State] and the City of Edmonds (“the City”), with principal offices located at 121 Fifth Avenue
North, Edmonds, Washington.
WHEREAS, the City desires to contract with a uniform supplier to provide uniform
items for its police employees; and
WHEREAS, the City desires to have Kroesens, pursuant to certain terms and conditions,
supply the necessary uniform items to outfit the City’s police employees;
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual benefits and conditions hereinafter
contained, the parties hereto agree as follows:
1. Scope of Work: Kroesens agrees to provide the City with the uniform items as
requested and established by the City in Exhibit A, attached hereto and incorporated herein by
this reference as if set forth in full. Kroesens must be able to completely outfit new police
employees within seventy-two hours and must make all uniform items, in a wide variety of sizes,
readily available from stock on hand. This Contract does not establish Kroesens as the sole
source for City purchases, and the City specifically reserves the right to go elsewhere for its
needs if Kroesens cannot supply the particular item within the times provided herein. The City
may also designate additional suppliers if, by doing so, it obtains the lowest overall price for its
uniform needs. The City reserves the right to engage in non-exclusive contracts with multiple
vendors in order to provide the lowest possible price on a per-item basis.
2. Ordering of Items: The City will designate certain employees as its buyer(s) for
the purposes of ordering items from Kroesens pursuant to this Contract. The City will so inform
Kroesens as to the names of these individuals. The City will submit its order by phone or by
facsimile on official letterhead, with any phone orders to be “backed-up” by facsimile as soon as
practicable. Kroesens is not to accept orders from individual police employees under the terms
of this Contract, except as follows:
Some of the City’s police employees are not covered by the City’s “quartermaster” system.
Some employees receive a uniform allowance so they can individually purchase uniform items
from any vendor as long as the items meet certain standards of the City. Some of these
employees may desire to purchase uniform items from Kroesens.
Packet Page 138 of 218
Kroesens agrees to honor prices for items listed in Exhibit A attached hereto for “individual
employee” purchases. However, for Kroesens to honor this contract price, the City’s designated
buyer(s) will order the items(s) on behalf of the “individual employee” utilizing the same
procedure as specified above. In addition, it will be noted on the order facsimile that this is an
“individual employee” purchase. It will be the responsibility of Kroesens and the “individual
employee” to agree upon payment terms for any items ordered by the City’s buyer where the
facsimile order specifies an “individual employee” order. The City will not be responsible for
payment of “individual employee” orders.
Under the terms of this Contract, all shoulder patches and bone buttons will be sewn on by
Kroesens at no charge when a new uniform shirt is purchased. All service stripes and chevrons
will be sewn on at the City’s expense. Tailoring requested by a police employee will be done by
Kroesens at the City’s expense, provided that an Assistant Chief of Police has first authorized
such tailoring.
3. Term of Contract: Kroesens shall begin performing the services under the terms
of this Contract effective January 1, 2012, and the Contract will remain in effect until December
31, 2014, unless terminated earlier pursuant to the terms of Paragraph 8. Kroesens retains the
right to request price increases on an annual basis, provided that Kroesens first provides the City
with documentation supporting the price increase, such as information relating to a price increase
from its supplier. The City has the right to deny such a request, but will not unreasonably do so.
4. Compensation: The City shall pay Kroesens for the police uniform items
provided pursuant to this Contract, except in the case of “individual employee” purchases as
noted in Paragraph 2, at the price rates established in Exhibit A. All prices listed in Exhibit A
include any charges for delivery to the City. No later than October 1st of each Contract year,
Kroesens shall provide the City with an updated price list and samples of any items that replace
or supersede any items on the expiring list. The City shall have forty-five (45) days to review
and accept or reject the uniform prices and samples. Kroesens shall provide the City with
monthly invoices for supplying uniform items. The City shall pay Kroesens within thirty days of
receipt of each invoice. Invoices shall include the name of each employee for which the
respective uniform items are being provided. Kroesens agrees that the City will not be billed for
items ordered as “individual employee” purchases as specified in Paragraph 2.
5. Assignment and Subcontract: Kroesens shall not assign or subcontract to any
person or entity any portion of the services contemplated by this Contract without the City’s
written consent.
6. Independent Contractor: The City and Kroesens agree that Kroesens is an
independent contractor with respect to the services provided pursuant to this Contract. Nothing
in this Contract shall be considered to create an employer/employee relationship between the
parties hereto. Neither Kroesens nor any employee of Kroesens shall be entitled to any benefit
accorded City employees by virtue of the services provided under this Contract. The City shall
not be responsible for withholding or otherwise deducting Federal Income Tax or Social Security
or contributing to the State Industrial Insurance Program, or otherwise assuming the duties of an
employer with respect to Kroesens or any employee of Kroesens.
Packet Page 139 of 218
7. Indemnification: Kroesens shall protect, defend, save harmless and indemnify
the City and its agents, officers and employees from and against all claims, suits and actions for
all damage or injury arising from the negligent and/or malicious acts, errors or omissions and any
willful, wanton, malicious or intentional tortious conduct on the part of Kroesens or its agents
and/or employees. Kroesens further agrees to fully indemnify the City from and against any and
all costs, including attorneys’ fees, of defending such claim or demand. Additionally, Kroesens
specifically waives its immunity under Title 51 of the Revised Code of Washington, the
Industrial Insurance Act, for injuries to its employees and agrees that the obligation to indemnify
the City extends to any claim, demand or action brought by or on behalf of any employee of
Kroesens, and includes any judgment, award and costs thereof including attorneys’ fees incurred.
This paragraph shall not apply to damages and claims resulting from the sole negligence of the
City.
8. Termination: The City may terminate this Contract at any time by providing
written notice of termination to the other party. Such termination shall become effective thirty
days after receipt of said notice. In any case whereby this Contract is terminated prior to the
stated expiry date, the City shall provide reasonable compensation to Kroesens for the uniform
items and services provided pursuant to this Contract and accepted by the City up to the date of
termination.
9. City Review/Approval: Upon delivery to the City of any police uniform items
required by the scope of work identified in Paragraph 1, the City may accept or reject such
uniform items, and may request such modification of said uniform items as it deems appropriate.
To service such modifications, Kroesens must have on-site tailoring facilities. Kroesens shall
promptly perform such modifications and correct any defects present in the uniform items.
Kroesens shall not be entitled to compensation for time devoted to correcting defective police
uniform items.
10. Force Majeure: Neither party shall be considered in default in the performance
of its obligations herein to the extent that the performance of said obligation is prevented or
delayed by any cause, existing or future, which is unforeseen and beyond the reasonable control
of the affected party.
11. Applicable Law and Venue: This Contract shall be governed by and construed
in accordance with the laws of the State of Washington. Venue for any action upon the terms of
this Contract shall be within King County, Washington.
12. Entire Agreement: The City and Kroesens agree that this Contract is the
complete expression of the terms between the parties hereto and no other agreement, oral or
otherwise, which regards the subject matter of this Contract shall be deemed to exist or to bind
any of the parties hereto. Either party may request changes to this Contract. Proposed changes
that are mutually agreed upon shall be incorporated by written amendment to this Contract.
Packet Page 140 of 218
13. Notice: Whenever it shall be required or permitted that notice or demand be
given or served by either party to this Contract, such notice or demand shall be given or served,
and shall not be deemed to have been duly given or served unless in writing and forwarded by
first-class mail, addressed to the address of the party as specified in the opening paragraph herein.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Kroesens and the City have caused this Contract to be
executed by the person authorized to act in their respective names.

Subject Title
Ordinance revising outdoor dining regulations of ECDC 17.75 and addition of a definition of "outdoor
dining area" to ECDC 21.75. (File No. AMD20110005)
Recommendation from Mayor and Staff
Adopt the outdoor dining ordinance (Exhibit 1) as prepared by the City Attorney.
Previous Council Action
This item was discussed with the CS/DS Council Committee on December 13, 2011, and the Committee
moved to forward the item to the full Council for a public hearing with no recommendation.
A public hearing was held before the Council on January 23, 2012. Following the close of the public
hearing, the Council voted to approve the Planning Board's recommendation on revisions to the outdoor
dining regulations of ECDC 17.75 and direct the City Attorney to prepare an ordinance for Council
adoption, with an amendment to the permitted hours of operation for sites adjacent to residentially-zoned
property. The draft minutes from this meeting are included for reference as Exhibit 2.
Narrative
As requested by the Council, the City Attorney has prepared an ordinance for revisions to the outdoor
dining regulations of ECDC 17.75 and the addition of a definition of "outdoor dining area" to ECDC
21.75.120. This ordinance is included as Exhibit 1, which includes the changes to ECDC 17.75 as
Attachment A.
The ordinance would allow outdoor dining outright within specified commercial zones as long as the
outdoor dining area complies with at least one of the following criteria:
1) The site is not directly adjacent to any residentially-zoned property(ies).
2) The site complies with the landscaping requirements found in Chapter 20.13 along the property line(s)
directly adjacent to the residentially-zoned property(ies).
3) The dining area is screened from adjoining residential property(ies) by a building and/or a 4-foot wall,
hedge, or solid fence.
4) Seating is limited to an additional 10 percent of the existing interior seating of the establishment or 12
seats, whichever is greater.
Additionally, for sites directly adjacent to residentially-zoned property, the ordinance would limit the
hours of operation of the outdoor dining area by requiring the outdoor dining area to be closed between
the hours of 9:00 pm and 8:00 am.
Packet Page 146 of 218
the hours of 9:00 pm and 8:00 am.
Provisions are included within the ordinance to allow for proposals for outdoor dining areas that do not
meet at least one of the four listed criteria or the limitation on the hours of operation where adjacent to
residentially-zoned property to be reviewed by the Hearing Examiner as a Type III-A conditional use
permit application.
The ordinance includes a provision requiring areas utilized for outdoor dining to comply with the setback
requirements applicable to the underlying zoning of the site. For example, on sites that are directly
adjacent to residentially-zoned property(ies), the outdoor dining area must be set back from the shared
residential property line a distance equivalent to or greater than the minimum setback distance, which is
typically 15 feet for commercial properties adjacent to residentially-zoned properties.

attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference (new text is shown in underline; deleted
text is shown as strike-through).
Section 2. Adding “Outdoor Dining Area” to Definitions. A new section
21.75.120, entitled “Outdoor dining area,” is hereby added to chapter 21.75 ECDC to read as
follows:
21.75.120. Outdoor dining area.
An outdoor dining area is a portion of a property utilized by a licensed
food or beverage establishment for the seating of customers for their
consumption of food or beverages served by the establishment. An
outdoor dining area is not located within a completely enclosed building,
but is instead located outside the building, such as on an outdoor patio or
deck. The area may be open to the elements or may be covered by a
roof or awning or partially enclosed. A portion of a dining area within an
enclosed building that is temporarily opened to the outdoors (such as by
opening windows, doors, or walls) is not considered to be an outdoor
dining area. An outdoor dining area must be located on property outside
of the City right-of-way.
Section 3. Severability. If any section, subsection, clause, sentence or phrase of
this ordinance should be held invalid or unconstitutional, such decision shall not affect the
validity of the remaining portions of this ordinance.
Section 4. Effective Date. This ordinance, being an exercise of power specifically
delegated to the City legislative body, is not subject to referendum, and shall take effect five (5)
days after passage and publication of an approved summary thereof consisting of the title.

E. No additional parking stalls shall be required for outdoor dining usage. [Ord. 3628 § 3, 2007;
Ord. 3312 § 1, 2000].
17.75.020 Outdoor dining – Secondary Primary uses requiring a conditional use permit.
Outdoor dining not meeting the requirements of ECDC 17.75.010 shall be a primary secondary
use requiring a conditional use permit within the zones states in 17.75.010(A). in the BN –
neighborhood business zone, BC – community business zone, BD – downtown business zone,
CW – commercial waterfront zone, and CG – general commercial zone, for outdoor seating which
Packet Page 152 of 218
[ATTACHMENT A]

whichever is greater. This use shall be established and maintained only in accordance with the
terms of a conditional use permit approved by the hearing examiner as a Type III-A decision
under the procedural requirements contained in Chapter 20.06 ECDC. At a minimum, the
conditions considered for imposition by the hearing examiner may include a restriction on
operating hours, location of the outdoor seating, and/or buffering of the noise and visual impacts
related to the outdoor dining seating. All seating permitted pursuant to the conditional use permit
shall be located outside of public rights-of-way. If outdoor seating is approved under these
provisions, no additional parking stalls shall be required for the outdoor dining. [Ord. 3783 § 5,
2010; Ord. 3775 § 5, 2010; Ord. 3736 § 19, 2009; Ord. 3628 § 4, 2007; Ord. 3312 § 1, 2000].
17.75.030 Reduction of outdoor seating by existing nonconforming seating.
An existing eating establishment with nonconforming seating which exceeds the current
standards of the city zoning ordinance may utilize outdoor dining as a permitted secondary use or
as a primary use requiring conditional use permit; provided, however, that the outdoor seating
shall not increase the nonconformity of the establishment. For example, an existing establishment
whose interior seating exceeds the normally permitted seating requirement for the zone by four
seats, outdoor dining permitted as a secondary use shall be reduced by four seats. Any additional
seating shall require a conditional use permit pursuant to the provisions of ECDC 17.75.020.
[Ord. 3312 § 1, 2000].
17.75.0340 Outdoor dining buildings or structures.
Any building or structure such as a service stand, fence, planter, kiosk, awning or other shelter

and this community development code, including but not limited to architectural design approval
review. [Ord. 3312 § 1, 2000].

4. PUBLIC HEARING REGARDING DRAFT REVISIONS TO THE OUTDOOR DINING
REGULATIONS OF ECDC 17.75 AND ADDITION OF A DEFINITION OF OUTDOOR DINING
TO ECDC 21.75. (FILE NO. AMD20110005)
Planner Jen Machuga explained the City’s current regulations allow outdoor dining outright as a
secondary use for an additional 10% of the existing interior seating or 8 seats, whichever is greater. If the
restaurant wishes to have more than 10% of the interior seats or 8 seats, a Type III-A Conditional Use
Permit (CUP) is required. The cost of a CUP is approximately $1500 and is reviewed by the Hearing
Examiner. The current process is cost prohibitive especially for small businesses who want to add a few
seats over the limit.
Ms. Machuga reviewed a timeline for the code revision process:
• May 25, 2011 – Planning Board discussion
• July 13, 2011 – Planning Board hearing
• August 10, 2011 – Planning Board continued hearing
• December 13, 2011 – CS/DS Council Committee discussion
• January 23, 2012 – City Council hearing
Ms. Machuga reviewed the Planning Board’s recommendation:
• Outdoor dining permitted outright if one of the following criteria are met:
1. Site is not directly adjacent to residentially-zoned properties; or
2. Site complies with landscaping requirements along property lines adjacent to residentially-
zoned properties; or
3. Dining area is screened from residential properties by a building and/or 4-foot wall, hedge, or
fence; or
4. Dining area contains no more than 10% of interior seating or 12 seats, whichever is greater.
• If site is adjacent to residentially-zoned property, the dining area shall be closed between 10:00
PM and 7:00 AM
• Requires a Type III-A CUP if requesting exemption from the four criteria or the hours of
operation.
• Updated the definition of outdoor dining in the code
Ms. Machuga displayed drawings illustrating what the proposed code language would allow with regard
to screening for a restaurant with outdoor dining adjacent to residentially-zoned property. She noted if a
restaurant wanted outdoor dining and did not provide landscaping/screening, they could seek a CUP. She
provided several photographs to illustrate how existing outdoor dining areas are screened.
Mayor Earling complimented Ms. Machuga’s presentation and also requested staff footnote acronyms in
their presentations in the future.
Councilmember Buckshnis asked if the zoning where Rory’s is located allows them to have outdoor
dining later than 10:00 p.m. Ms. Machuga answered Rory’s is in the Downtown Business (BD) zone and
does not have the limitation on hours in the outdoor dining code because it is not directly adjacent to
residentially-zoned property. Any outdoor dining area is subject to the City’s noise ordinance.
Councilmember Buckshnis observed Rory’s could have outdoor dining until 2:00 a.m. Ms. Machuga
answered yes. She recalled Rory’s had a CUP in 2004 for a potential additional/remodel that eventually
did not occur which limited their hours.

Councilmember Bloom asked whether the $1500 fee applied only to the CUP. Ms. Machuga agreed it did.
Councilmember Bloom asked if there was any fee associated with applying for outdoor dining. Ms.
Machuga answered a permit would not be required if the restaurant was adding seats to an existing area
but there may be fees associated with the creation of a new outdoor dining area that requires design
review. Those fees are much less expensive compared to a CUP.
Mayor Earling opened the public participation portion of the public hearing.
Pam Stuller, Richmond Beach, owner of Walnut Street Coffee, expressed her support for the proposed
change to the code language. She anticipated the change would encourage a more lively and interactive
downtown which is beneficial to small businesses as well as residents.
Roger Hertrich, Edmonds, questioned the purpose of the 4-foot fence, commenting a fence in a
residential area was required to be 5-feet. He pointed out most of the examples staff provided buffered the
outdoor dining area from the street and none of them illustrated an outdoor dining area adjacent to a
residentially-zoned property. He questioned whether consideration had been given to outdoor dining in
buildings downtown where there is residential on the second floor. He questioned whether there was a
difference between dining and drinking in outdoor dining areas.
Hearing no further comment, Mayor Earling closed the public participation portion of the public hearing.
Councilmember Plunkett asked if the fence for an outdoor dining area adjacent to a residentially-zoned
property was only required to be 4 feet in height. Ms. Machuga answered that was the Planning Board’s
recommendation for one of the four criteria; the 4-foot fence would not be required if the outdoor dining
area met the landscaping requirement or have less than 10% of the number of interior seats or 12 seats
whichever is greater. Councilmember Plunkett summarized if the outdoor dining area did not meet the
other criteria, they would be required to have a fence and if the outdoor dining area were adjacent to a
residentially-zoned property, the fence would only be 4-feet in height. Ms. Machuga agreed.
Councilmember Plunkett asked if the Planning Board or staff discussed the concept of 6-foot fences in
residential areas. Ms. Machuga responded a fence is not required to be 6 feet in height in a residential
neighborhood; that is the maximum height. The Planning Board originally discussed a 6-foot height but
felt more architectural interest could be provided by allowing a 4-foot fence and the business owner could
add a trellis. As one of the examples illustrated, if a 6-foot fence were required, it was feared it would be a
solid plain cedar fence rather than a 4-foot fence with a decorative trellis, flower boxes, etc. The Planning
Board also discussed that the height of people seated in an outdoor dining area is closer to the 4-foot
height. Councilmember Plunkett pointed out it was not required to add a trellis or other architectural
feature above the 4-foot fence adjacent to a house. Ms. Machuga agreed a 4-foot fence with nothing
above could be provided.
Councilmember Petso referred to the four criteria, observing that under the proposed language a
restaurant with 11 outdoor seats adjacent to a house would not require a fence, screening or CUP. Ms.
Machuga agreed.
Councilmember Bloom observed an outdoor dining area adjacent to a residentially-zoned property must
close at 10:00 p.m. Ms. Machuga answered yes, unless they applied for and received a CUP. The CUP is
a Type III-A process before the Hearing Examiner that includes public notice, public hearing, etc. With
regard to adjacent to residentially-zoned property, she clarified that meant a shared property line. There
are few commercial properties downtown directly adjacent to residential properties; there is either a street
or alley separating them. In those cases, the restaurant would meet the first criteria, not directly adjacent
to residentially-zoned property.

COUNCIL PRESIDENT PETERSON MOVED, SECONDED BY COUNCILMEMBER
BUCKSHNIS, TO APPROVE THE PLANNING BOARD’S RECOMMENDATION AND DIRECT
THE CITY ATTORNEY TO PREPARE AN ORDINANCE FOR COUNCIL ADOPTION.
COUNCILMEMBER PETSO, MOVED, SECONDED BY COUNCILMEMBER PLUNKETT, TO
AMEND THE MOTION TO CHANGE THE HOURS FOR SITES ADJACENT TO
RESIDENTIALLY ZONED PROPERTY THAT THE DINING AREA BE CLOSED BETWEEN
9:00 P.M. AND 8:00 A.M.
Councilmember Petso explained the hours she proposed were consistent with the hours in the Home
Occupation Ordinance.
Councilmember Bloom inquired about the Home Occupation Ordinance. Councilmember Petso explained
the City’s Home Occupation Ordinance regulates home-based businesses in residential areas. Those
businesses are required to be closed between 9:00 p.m. and 8:00 a.m. Because outdoor dining areas would
be permitted immediately adjacent to a residential area, she proposed changing the hours to match the
hours in the Home Occupation Ordinance. Councilmember Bloom asked if that requirement was related
to noise. Councilmember Petso responded yes.
THE VOTE ON THE AMENDMENT CARRIED (5-1), COUNCIL PRESIDENT PETERSON
VOTING NO. (Councilmember Fraley-Monillas was not present for the vote).
Councilmember Petso suggested requiring that outright permitted outdoor dining meet both criteria 1 and
4 and either criteria 2 or 3. Student Representative Springer questioned the requirement to meet both
criteria 1 and 4 and the reasoning for changing the hours if a site was not adjacent to residentially-zoned
property. Councilmember Petso explained her intent was if a site is adjacent to residentially-zoned
property, the outdoor dining area would not be permitted outright unless screening was provided.
Student Representative Springer asked if an establishment could apply for a CUP if their outdoor dining
was not outright permitted. Ms. Machuga answered yes. Councilmember Petso suggested if an applicant
did not meet criteria 1 and 4, they be required to apply for a CUP.
Councilmember Buckshnis asked if there were any outdoor dining establishments adjacent to
residentially-zoned property. Ms. Machuga could not think of any. Ms. Machuga clarified under
Councilmember Petso’s proposal, for an outdoor dining area to be allowed outright, it could not be
directly adjacent to residentially-zoned property, there would be a limit on the number of seats and
screening would be required either by landscaping or a fence. She summarized that was just as restrictive
as the existing regulations.
Councilmember Petso commented her proposal would apply to Five Bistro which is adjacent to single
family residential and potential redevelopment in Firdale Village and Five Corners where outdoor dining
could be immediately adjacent to someone’s yard. Ms. Machuga explained there is a single family house
next door to Five Bisto that is on the same Neighborhood Business (BN) zoned lot. Using that as an
example, under the Planning Board’s proposal, outdoor dining would be allowed outright because it
would not be directly adjacent to residentially-zoned property.
With regard to examples of outdoor dining adjacent to residentially-zoned property, Ms. Machuga
referred to examples of CUP granted for Five Bistro, Scott’s Bar & Grill and Penara; none of those are
directly adjacent to residentially-zoned properties. Under the Planning Board’s proposal, they would have
been outright permitted without a CUP. Under Councilmember Petso’s proposal a CUP would be required
due to the number of seats.

Student Representative Springer questioned the reason for requiring criteria 4, limiting outdoor dining to
10% of interior seating or 12 seats whichever is greater, if the site is not directly adjacent to residentially-
zoned property.
COUNCILMEMBER PETSO MOVED, SECONDED BY COUNCILMEMBER PLUNKETT, TO
AMEND THE MOTION TO ALLOW OUTDOOR DINING TO BE PERMITTED OUTRIGHT
ONLY IF IT MEETS CRITERIA 1 AND ONE OF THE OTHER THREE CRITERIA.
Councilmember Plunkett advised he would support the amendment as the ordinance would come back to
the Council for approval.
Ms. Machuga asked if Councilmember Petso’s intent was outdoor dining would be permitted outright as a
secondary use if the site is not directly adjacent to residentially-zoned property, and it meets one of
criteria 2-4, and outdoor dining directly adjacent to residentially-zoned property would require a CUP
regardless of the number of seats. Councilmember Petso responded that was her intent.
City Attorney Jeff Taraday relayed his understanding of the amendment was any application for outdoor
dining adjacent to residentially-zoned property would require a CUP no matter what. If the application for
outdoor dining was for a property that was not adjacent to residentially-zoned property, it might not need
a CUP as long as one of criteria 2, 3 or 4 is met.
Student Representative Springer commented it was unfair toward businesses adjacent to residentially
zoned property because it forced them to pay the $1500 fee for a CUP. He pointed out the hours for
outdoor dining had already been limited which was sufficient for outdoor dining adjacent to residentially-
zoned property.
Councilmember Plunkett commented it was imminently fair because a business that is next to a residence
should be held to a higher standard.
Council President Peterson agreed with Student Representative Springer. The Planning Board’s proposal
with the change in hours was restrictive enough. The point of the Planning Board’s recommendation was
to create business opportunities; making the regulations more restrictive defeats that purpose. He did not
support the proposed amendment.
UPON ROLL CALL, THE VOTE ON THE AMENDMENT FAILED (3-3); COUNCILMEMBERS
PLUNKETT, BUCKSHNIS AND PETSO VOTING YES; AND COUNCIL PRESIDENT
PETERSON AND COUNCILMEMBERS BLOOM AND YAMAMOTO VOTING NO.
(Councilmember Fraley-Monillas was not present for the vote).
Mr. Taraday explained Mayor Earling was unable to vote to break the tie because this ultimately would
come back to the Council as an ordinance.
Student Representative Springer supported limiting the dining hours to 10:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m., pointing
out during Daylight Savings Time, the sun sets later and limiting dining hours to 9:00 p.m. would require
patrons to be seated by 8:00 p.m. He concluded the 9:00 p.m. time limit reduced access to the outdoor
seating area particularly during the longer summer days.
Councilmember Petso recalled the Home Occupation Ordinance that was adopted in the name of
economic development and the ensuing public outcry about what could occur in a single family
neighborhood. The Council subsequently limited the hours. If someone sited a restaurant off her back
fence and was allowed to have outdoor dining until 10:00 p.m. she would likely have to move as she
would find that highly unsatisfactory.

PETSO VOTING NO. (Councilmember Fraley-Monillas was not present for the vote).
5. AUDIENCE COMMENTS
Laura Spehar, Edmonds, shared a story about a friend who is gay that was a victim of a hit-and-run
accident and whose 20-year partner was not allowed into the emergency room or given information about
her condition because she was not recognized as a relative or spouse. The victim also had no medical
insurance at the time of the accident; her partner worked for the State but was not allowed to include her
partner on her medical insurance policy. She and her husband felt it an unjustified privilege to obtain
medical insurance, rights, marriage certificate, and acceptance when they married only because they are a
non-gay couple. She urged the Council to remember her friends’ story when voting on the resolution in
support of marriage equality and adding marriage equality to the 2012 legislative agenda. She viewed her
friends’ 20-year relationship as a partnership that should be recognized. Unfortunately due to various
beliefs, misinformation, lack of education, the United States is still behind in addressing this issue.
Christopher Querubin, Edmonds, explained he met his spouse in 2007, they became domestic partners
in 2010 and they were married in Connecticut in 2011. He asked for the Council support for the resolution
in support of marriage equality. He has requested a meeting with Senator Paull Shin on Friday. He
supported marriage equality at the state and federal level. His husband is a business owner based in
Edmonds and they hire veterans.
Royce Napolitano, Edmonds, urged the Council to support the resolution in support of marriage
equality, noting there are many families that need this. Although the votes at the state level are promising,
he urged Council to take a stand to demonstrate support from grassroots and not just an overall populous.
Dave Page, Edmonds, spoke regarding the resolution in support of marriage equality. He pointed out the
Council was non-partisan but marriage equality was a partisan issue. He noted various churches in
Edmonds that do not support marriage equality. Observing that the vast majority of the Council’s
constituency was conservative, if the Council did not pass the resolution, the liberals in the community
would call the Council right-wing nuts; if the Council passes the resolution and declare their partisanship,
the right-wing nuts will think the Council are crazy left-leaning liberals. He concluded right or wrong was
not the issue, the legislature will pass marriage equality legislation and there is no need for the Council to
commit on this topic. He requested Council pull this item from the agenda.
Don Hall, Edmonds, expressed concern with the process related to Agenda Items 6 and 10. With regard
to Item 6, he pointed out it was on the Consent Agenda on the Tuesday, January 17 meeting that was
canceled due to snow. He supported the change to place it on the agenda for tonight’s meeting because
when the charge of a commission is being changed, the public should know which Councilmembers want
the changes and why. He questioned whether those in favor of the changes had attended any of the
Economic Development Commission’s (EDC) meetings or discussed their concerns with the commission.
Scheduling such a change on the Consent Agenda was a poor example of open government. With regard
to Agenda Item 10, he commented this is another poor example of open government because the public
was given very little notice this issue would be on the Council agenda, giving no opportunity for the local
newspaper to publish articles and it was not listed as a public hearing. The public has not had an
opportunity to express their opinion unless they did so to the legislature. He concluded Agenda Item 10
was rushed for political reasons, a poor example of open government.
Ron Wambolt, Edmonds, agreed with Mr. Page and Mr. Hall with regard to Agenda Item 10. He
pointed out the Seattle City Council passed a resolution in support of marriage equality and questioned
whether Edmonds wanted to use Seattle as its standard of excellence. With regard to the roundabout, he
explained a preponderance of citizens have expressed opposition to the project. Their opposition is not

Subject Title
Ordinance amending Edmonds City Code Chapter 3.65; designating the City Clerk as the Public Records
Officer for the Transportation Benefit District.
Recommendation from Mayor and Staff
It is recommended that the City Council adopt the Ordinance.
Previous Council Action
N/A
Narrative
The Public Records Act mandates that local government agencies designate a public records officer
whose responsibility is to serve as the "point of contact" for members of the public seeking public
records. The City Council previously designated the city clerk as the public records officer for the city.
During the annual review with the Washington Cities Insurance Authority, it was recommended that the
Transportation Benefit District (TBD) separately designate a public records officer for the TBD. The
TBD is scheduled at its meeting on February 7 to designate the city clerk as its public records officer.
Due to the action of the TBD, Section 3.65.020 of the Edmonds City Code needs to be amended
to include the statement: "The public records officer of the transportation benefit district shall be the city
clerk."
The City Attorney prepared the attached ordinance.

Purposes.
The BD zone has the following specific purposes in addition to the general purposes for
business and commercial zones listed in Chapter 16.40 ECDC:
A. Promote downtown Edmonds as a setting for retail, office, entertainment and associated
businesses supported by nearby residents and the larger Edmonds community, and as a
destination for visitors from throughout the region.
B. Define the downtown commercial and retail core along streets having the strongest
pedestrian links and pedestrian-oriented design elements, while protecting downtown’s identity.
C. Identify supporting arts and mixed use residential and office areas which support and
complement downtown retail use areas. Provide for a strong central retail core at downtown’s
focal center while providing for a mixture of supporting commercial and residential uses in the
area surrounding this retail core area.
D. Focus development between the commercial and retail core and the Edmonds Center for
the Arts on small-scale retail, service, and multifamily residential uses. [Ord. 3700 § 1, 2008].
16.43.010
Subdistricts.
The “downtown business” zone is subdivided into five distinct subdistricts, each intended to
implement specific aspects of the comprehensive plan that pertain to the Downtown Waterfront
Activity Center. Each subdistrict contains its own unique mix of uses and zoning regulations, as
described in this chapter. The five subdistricts are:
BD1 – Downtown Retail Core;
BD2 – Downtown Mixed Commercial;
BD3 – Downtown Convenience Commercial;
BD4 – Downtown Mixed Residential;
BD5 – Downtown Arts Corridor. [Ord. 3700 § 1, 2008].

For conditional uses listed in Table 16.43-1, the use may be permitted if the proposal meets
the criteria for conditional uses found in Chapter 20.05 ECDC, and all of the following criteria
are met:
1. Access and Parking. Pedestrian access shall be provided from the sidewalk. Vehicular
access shall only be provided consistent with ECDC 18.80.060. When a curb cut is necessary, it
shall be landscaped to be compatible with the pedestrian streetscape and shall be located and
designed to be as unobtrusive as possible.
2. Design and Landscaping. The project shall be designed so that it is oriented to the street
and contributes to the pedestrian streetscape environment. Fences more than four feet in height
along street lot lines shall only be permitted if they are at least 50 percent open, such as a lattice
pattern. Blank walls shall be discouraged, and when unavoidable due to the nature of the use
shall be decorated by a combination of at least two of the following:
a. Architectural features or details;
b. Artwork;
c. Landscaping. [Ord. 3700 § 1, 2008].

specifically audit this project. Mayor Cooper advised Mr. Taraday, the City Clerk and he will provide
responses to Councilmember Bernheim’s questions.
Councilmember Fraley-Monillas commented she was speechless. She believes this will be looked at in a
thorough manner. She looked forward to determining how to proceed in the future and appreciated Mr.
Williams’ input regarding a policy to avoid this in the future. She wondered if the Council would have
stopped the project if they knew the overruns were this high; remarking the Council should have been
given the opportunity to make that decision.
Councilmember Wilson commented the Auditor is not the appropriate arbiter of whether something is
legal or illegal. Before the next Council meeting he suggested a definitive answer be provided by
someone outside the City, whether that was an investigation by the Office of the Attorney General or the
King County Prosecuting Attorney’s Office or some other entity. He summarized it was not appropriate
for the Council or Mayor to pass judgment regarding what was legal or illegal.
Councilmember Plunkett suggested scheduling an Executive Session with regard to what is legal and
illegal, whether to pursue an investigation, etc. Mr. Taraday answered if the Council was contemplating
whether the City has a cause of action that would be appropriately discussed in Executive Session as
would be the defense regarding the request for equitable adjustment. Councilmember Plunkett
commented Mr. Williams, Mr. Taraday and Mayor Cooper made every effort to make the information
public as soon as they received it. The Council now needs to discuss how to proceed in Executive
Session.
Council President Peterson scheduled an Executive Session on September 6, 2011 at 6:00 p.m.
Mayor Cooper advised staff will answer the questions asked by the Council and schedule review of a
purchasing policy on a future agenda.
(Councilmember Wilson did not participate in the following items.)
7. POTENTIAL AMENDMENTS TO DOWNTOWN BD ZONES.
Planning Manager Rob Chave advised the Community Services/Development Service Committee
discussed this at their recent meeting and forwarded three of the Planning Board recommendations to the
Council for further consideration. Development agreements are not part of this agenda item and will be
scheduled for a future Council work session.
Council President Peterson clarified tonight’s discussion did not include development agreements. The
City Attorney will review the issue of development agreements and make further recommendations. Mr.
Chave advised the City Attorney will provide background on development agreements at a future work
session. Council President Peterson advised he has been working with Mr. Taraday to schedule a work
session on land use issues.
Councilmember Bernheim provided a PowerPoint presentation. He expressed support for the 45-foot
depth for the storefronts and not allowing offices on the ground floor in the retail core. He did not support
removing the step backs in the BD zone, at least at this point; and did not support allowing buildings as
tall as 35 feet along the main retail corridors, Fifth Avenue and Main Street, noting he had seen no
research or evidence proving these are good ideas. He provided photographs supporting his research that
step backs are highly desirable and are necessary to preserve human scale, noting step backs are required
in Kirkland and Friday Harbor. As support for his opposition to 35-foot buildings, he provided
photographs of 1-2 story buildings along main shopping streets in Kirkland and Edmonds. He provided
several photographs of buildings he liked.

Councilmember Bernheim said he would not approve an increase in height limits on the main retail
shopping streets just to keep a post office or build a boutique hotel. He envisioned the sky, the air above,
the view, the pedestrian scale, trees taller than buildings as the City’s “seed corn,” the City’s heritage and
the tourism golden egg and he would not sell it for the promise that residents could “save a buck on
property taxes.” He suggested the following ideas be considered before approving a permanent height
increase:
• Limit the width of buildings on the street front (to break up buildings into smaller pieces)
• Measure height from the main street instead of the center of the lot (so the height of the
building slopes with the street)
• Develop the alleys (to provide more storefront)
• Limit the volume of the building to, e.g., 250% of the lot size (to give builder flexibility, but
control maximum building mass)
• Underground utility wires
• Replace some on-street parking with a pedestrian pathway
Councilmember Bernheim proposed the following:
1. Anywhere downtown, amend the Code to allow an extra 3 feet for solar panels (the City already
allows unlimited extra height for church steeples, 3 feet for elevator penthouses and chimneys,
18” for vent pipes, and 30” for stand pipes. ECDC 21.40.030).
2. Maximum building height for lots in any BD zone should be between two and four stories
• Stories above the second story should be set back 45 feet along Main Street and Fifth Avenue
to match the recommended depth of the retail space.
• All development in the BD zone above two stories requires ADB review after new guidelines
are adopted.
• Two stories along the main retail streets will protect human scale and pedestrian orientation.
• Four stories everywhere in the BD zone with ADB approval except the valuable shopping
streets.
3. Eliminate three-hour free parking
• In BD-1 zone, 2 hours free, pay for anything over that, up to 4 hours.
• In other downtown zones, to create commuter, transit-oriented parking, 2 hours free, pay for
anything over that, up to 14 hours.
Councilmember Bernheim suggested holding a town hall meeting where residents can be heard, and can
work together to find common ground. He summarized economic development does not require changing
the zoning code to allow taller buildings. Building heights can be raised but only if residents support that
change in the community character. To promote economic development, zoning codes should be
predictable and fair; there are many more solutions than raising building heights along main historical
town streets.
Councilmember Petso commented earlier this week she sent an email to some Councilmembers, Mr.
Chave, Mr. Taraday, Mr. Clifton and Mayor Cooper conveying her analysis that the building height limit
was 25 feet but the proposed amendments to Section C2 and C3 would change the height limit to 30 feet.
Previously those sections allowed 30 feet with step backs for pitched roofs and the amendments appeared
to allow 30 foot boxes. Mr. Chave answered 25 feet is the basic height limit in the BD zones and there are
different ways to achieve 30 feet. For example in the BD1 zone, a 30-foot height can be achieved if the
building has a 15-foot ground floor. In other BD zones a 30-foot height can be achieved with a step back
and a 12-foot ground floor. The Planning Board recommendation eliminates the step back requirement
but retains the 12-foot ground floor requirement.

COUNCILMEMBER BERNHEIM MOVED, SECONDED BY COUNCILMEMBER FRALEY-
MONILLAS, TO ADOPT THE PLANNING BOARD RECOMMENDATION TO CHANGE THE
60-FOOT AND 30-FOOT DEPTH TO A 45 FOOT COMMERCIAL DEPTH IN THE BD ZONES.
MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY.
COUNCILMEMBER BERNHEIM MOVED, SECONDED BY COUNCIL PRESIDENT
PETERSON, TO ADOPT THE PLANNING BOARD RECOMMENDATION TO EXCLUDE
OFFICE USES FROM THE STORE FRONTS IN THE BD1 ZONE.
Councilmember Plunkett relayed he would be unable to support this amendment, envisioning a property
owner may not have a tenant without an office use. He preferred to allow the marketplace to determine
whether an office such as a tax accountant locates in the BD1 zone based on their success.
Councilmember Fraley-Monillas was also concerned that a space would remain vacant if a building
owner was unable to rent to a retail use. She did not support the motion.
Council President Peterson commented service businesses currently located in the BD1 zone would be
grandfathered. He pointed out this is not radical thinking; there are retail districts around the world and
they exist for a reason. As a retailer he understood that although some service businesses attract
customers, a consistent retail base is needed in the retail core. Shoppers in a retail area encountering
spaces where curtains are drawn because it is a dental office will often turn around and proceed no
further. He emphasized this is proposed for a very limited area of downtown, it is the right thing to do for
the greater good of the retail core and it is endorsed by business leaders in the community.
Councilmember Fraley-Monillas commented a dental office cannot be visible to the street due to HIPPA
requirements. She envisioned uses such as interior designers, insurance, etc. who bring money to
Edmonds. She was not convinced that Edmonds should not allow those businesses as prominently as
retail stores. She favored a mixture of businesses in the City. She observed grandfathering meant that
existing businesses could remain and asked whether the grandfather clause would allow another office
after an office tenant moved out. Mr. Chave answered a similar use could locate in the space within 6
months. He relayed there have been instances where the building owners do not always seek a retail use
first and rent to whomever shows up which over time can erode the retail core. The Planning Board’s
recommendation was only for the BD1, a very small area and only in the first 45 feet of the ground floor.
In the BD1 zone offices can locate above or behind a retail uses.
UPON ROLL CALL, MOTION FAILED (2-3); COUNCILMEMBER BERNHEIM AND COUNCIL
PRESIDENT PETERSON VOTING YES; AND COUNCILMEMBERS PETSO, FRALEY-
MONILLAS AND PLUNKETT VOTING NO.
8. COUNCIL REPORTS ON OUTSIDE COMMITTEE/BOARD MEETINGS
Councilmember Petso reported on the Public Facilities District Board meeting; these are generally good
and exciting times for the PFD. Although items are not usually presented to the Council without review
by a Council committee, Councilmember Petso explained the PFD is working on term limits for their
boards and they plan to present their proposal to Council on a Consent Agenda.
Councilmember Petso reported the Regional Fire Authority (RFA) Finance Committee is nearly to the
point where policy decisions can begin to be made on individual items, from staffing levels to hydrant
maintenance, within the RFA. As it will be difficult to get Council enough information in advance to seek
policy direction, she planned to tentatively agree to policies to get a preliminary model in place. She will
avoid agreeing on more than a tentative basis until there is an opportunity for Council discussion.
Councilmember Bernheim reported he was invited by the Muslim Association of Puget Sound to their
beautiful new mosque in Redmond to break the fast.

Naming of Old Milltown Park Site
Recommendation from Mayor and Staff
Planning Board, Mayor, and staff are recommending that Council adopt the name " Hazel Miller Plaza"
for the Old Milltown park site.
Previous Council Action
At the November 9, 2011 Planning Board meeting, Vice Chair Reed reminded the Board that a public
hearing related to the name for the new park at Old Milltown is scheduled for December 14. The Board
discussed the process that was previously used for naming parks.
On December 14th, the Planning board heard a staff presentation, opened the public hearing, and
discussed the naming of Old Milltown park site. The decision was made to continue the public hearing to
January.
On January 11th, the Planning Board continued the public hearing, and unanimously decided to forward
the recommendation of "Hazel Miller Plaza" to Council for adoption.
Narrative
A new park site is currently under construction at the Old Milltown site. In accordance with the Park
Naming Policy adopted on March 24, 2009, the Planning Board is required to conduct a public hearing,
and make a formal recommendation to the City Council for adoption. With the assistance of the Parks,
Recreation and Cultural Services Staff, naming proposals were solicited and 43 recommendations were
submitted. The Planning Board received the proposed names on November 22 and they held a public
hearing on December 14th to solicit additional input. They decided on December 14th to continue the
public hearing in January. Attached are the final minutes from the December Planning Board meeting, the
draft minutes from the January meeting, the list of names submitted by the community, and a letter from
the Hazel Miller Foundation. Following the continued Public Hearing on January 11th, the Planning
Board unanimously decided to forward the name " Hazel Miller Plaza" to Council for consideration of
adoption.

No one in the audience indicated a desire to address the Board during this portion of the meeting.
PARKS, RECREATION, AND CULTURAL SERVICES UPDATE
Ms. Hite said she was present to update the Board on Parks, Recreation and Cultural Services activities that have occurred
from July through December. She referred them to the written report prepared by staff, and specifically highlighted the
following:
• The City broke ground on the Interurban Trail Project last August. The contractor expressed a desire to expedite the
construction schedule but was unable to complete the project within the weather window. The project is about 95%
complete, and the remaining work must wait for warmer weather. At this time, the contractor is working with
adjacent property owners to complete mitigation projects. The contractor is hoping to complete the project no later
than the end of April, pending weather conditions. She summarized that the project is on scope and on budget, and
the contractor has created a good relationship with adjacent property owners to provide appropriate mitigation. The
City is happy with the process and the progress of the project.

• The City also broke ground last October for the small courtyard area in front of Old Milltown. However, while
grading the surface to get ready for construction, the contractor found that some posts and the boardwalk at Old
Milltown had deteriorated to a point where they needed to be replaced before the trench for the drain could be
installed. The City was not successful working with the bank (owner of the building) to resolve the issue, and did not
not have the ability to do repair work on private property. The City has recently learned the property was purchased,
and the new owner has repaired the posts and the boardwalk and indicated support for the proposed park
development. The new owner has an ambitious business plan to attract new businesses into Old Milltown. The first
raised flower bed will be poured tomorrow, and the planters have been constructed by staff and are ready to be
poured. All the precast planters have been delivered and the benches have been sold and delivered. The City’s two
horticulturists have worked with the Edmonds Floretum Garden Club to select plants for the new park. She said she
anticipates the project will come together fairly quickly from this point.
• Last summer the Yost Park pool was replastered, and the project was completed on time and on budget. Other minor
improvements were done, as well. There is also money in the budget in 2012 to replace the boiler, and staff will
research more sustainable alternatives. However, because the pool will open in June, installation of the new
equipment may have to wait until after the pool closes in the fall.
• The Edmonds School District owns the former Edmonds Woodway High School (EWHS) property, and the
Department of Natural Resources (DNR) owns part of the field and the green spaces west of the field. The District
has indicated their interest in redeveloping the field, and they have worked with the surrounding neighborhood to
create a master plan. Because the initial plan would be costly, the District is now considering scaling back the
project to just one baseball and one soccer field. They have invited representatives from the City of Edmonds to
participate in future discussions, along with representatives from Mountlake Terrace, Lynnwood, and Verdant Health
Care. Their goal is to put together a financial plan to move the project forward. City staff has expressed concern
that developing just one soccer field would not meet the current needs of the community. While the City does not
have a huge baseball community, they do have a need for two to three full-sized soccer fields to meet community
needs and to attract tournaments that bring visitors to the City.
The District has indicated that they have no desire to sell the Civic Stadium to the City, and the current lease ($1 per
year) expires in 2020. The District has also made it clear that they will seek market value for the property once the
current lease expires. The City depends on this property for fields, festivals, and other gathering opportunities, and
staff is working with the district to identify a solution. She has had discussions with the District about alternative
options. For example, the property could be developed as part of a partnership between the City and the District
through a Mutual Use Agreement. There has also been preliminary discussions about creating a master plan for
Civic Stadium that could include a baseball field to attract a semi-professional team to the City. This would meet the
District’s needs for a high-school sports facility, and address the community’s needs at the same time. However,
there are numerous concerns and benefits that still need to be addressed. Using this approach, a baseball field would
no longer be needed at the EWHS site, and additional soccer fields could be accommodated instead. The District is
interested in discussing various partnership opportunities. As discussions move forward, staff will continue to report
to the Board.
• The City has partnered with People for Puget Sound and received a $100,000 grant from the Salmon Recovery
Board, which will be matched with $50,000 from the Real Estate Excise Tax (REET) Fund, and $50,000 from the
Stormwater Fund. The grant provides funding to start a feasibility study on the marsh, which does not currently
function property. The City, in conjunction with People for Puget Sound, is looking for ways to rehabilitate the
marsh so it can absorb storm and tide water, allow enough room for salmon to swim upstream, and provide habitat
for salmon. At this time, there is no evidence of salmon habitat in the marsh, and the study will include an analysis
of the best way to daylight Willow Creek to allow for potential salmon return. People for Puget Sound will take the
lead on the feasibility study and will work closely with parks and stormwater staff. Once a promising project has
been started, it is common for the Salmon Recovery Board to stick with it and continue to provide funding. A five-
year plan has been created to move the project forward, and the City is seeking a consultant to help further define the
next steps in the process.

Chair Lovell noted that the Interurban Trail Project report indicates that “sharrows” would be added to 74th Avenue West. He
asked staff to define a “sharrow.” Ms. Hite answered that a “sharrow” is an arrow that identifies a shared roadway for both
bicycles and vehicles. She noted that bike lanes are already present on 74th Avenue West, but they will be restriped with
reflective paint.
Chair Lovell recalled that at their last meeting, Ms. Hite advised the Board that labor costs for constructing the Old Milltown
Plaza would be charged directly to the City. He asked if this expense is reflected in the total cost of the project. Ms. Hite
answered affirmatively. Chair Lovell asked if staff could provide an update on the Haines Wharf Park situation. Ms. Hite
answered that because of potential litigation, she is unable to provide an update on this project.
Chair Lovell asked if the Parks, Recreation and Cultural Services Department has adequate funding to complete ongoing
maintenance and repair projects in 2012. Ms. Hite answered that there is sufficient funding for this year. However, numerous
maintenance projects have been deferred such as replacement of playground equipment. While staff works hard to ensure the
equipment is safe, it is worn out and takes a lot of staff time to inspect and correct problems. The restrooms at many parks are
old and need to be remodeled and/or replaced, as well. She advised that she has a list of deferred maintenance projects that
could be forwarded to Planning Board members. While some REET funding can be used to address immediate maintenance
needs, she acknowledged that numerous maintenance projects are not being taken care as a result of insufficient funding.
Board Member Stewart complimented Ms. Hite and parks staff for putting the City in a good position from an economic and
environmentally sustainable standpoint. She said she is excited that the City received funding for a marsh feasibility study
and that the City can provide the necessary matching funds to accept the grant. She noted that the study would take between
five and six months to complete, and she questioned how this would impact the Port of Edmonds’ ability to move forward
with their Harbor Square Redevelopment Master Plan. Ms. Hite said she has discussed this concern with the Port of
Edmonds. The Salmon Recovery Board did a site visit and raised the concern that daylighting Willow Creek through Marina
Beach Park may not be a viable option. They suggested that a better option would be to run the creek through Port property.
While the Port has concerns about this option, they have indicated their willingness to discuss the concept with the City. This
change may or may not impact Harbor Square. She noted that three options would be considered for daylighting Willow
Creek: through Marina Beach Park using the culvert that was already installed as part of the Sound Transit project, across
Port property, or up to Olympic Beach Park. Contamination on the Chevron property must also be addressed, and then the
Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) will have the first right of refusal to purchase the land. The
current channel for Willow Creek may be too long, and using a portion of the Chevron property would accommodate an easier
channel for salmon.
Board Member Reed recalled that two years ago, several designs were considered for replacing Yost Pool with a new version.
He asked if this project is still included on the City’s “wish list.” If so, does staff have any plans for moving the project
forward at some point in the future? Ms. Hite answered that the project is still included on the City’s long-term “wish list.”
However, it would be difficult to move it forward at this time because of its significant cost. She acknowledged there are
opportunities for grant funding, but it would take a tremendous amount of community support to approve bonds, levies, etc. to
fully fund the project. She reminded the Board that the City does not have a lot of capital dollars for parks. They are
currently limited to the $500,000 REET fund, so it would take a significant amount of time to stock pile enough money for the
project. She said a private/public partnership is another option the City could consider for potential redevelopment of Yost
Pool. While these partnerships have occurred across the nation, they are more difficult at this time given the current
economic situation. Chair Lovell recalled that he participated on the citizen group that explored options for a new aquatics
center in the City. The EWHS site was one potential site for the facility, but the District made it clear they would not support
the concept. He encouraged staff to be cautious when approaching the District about a potential partnership to develop a new
pool.
Board Member Johnson asked Ms. Hite to share the City’s recent and planned efforts to raise more park revenue. Ms. Hite
reported on the following activities:
• A non-resident fee for recreation programs was implemented in December. While they received a few negative
comments from non-residents, none were received from City residents. The 20% premium charged to non-residents
is estimated to result in an additional $50,000 of revenue per year.

Planning Board Minutes
January 11, 2012 Page 4
• A large percentage of recreational programs require for contract instructors to teach the classes. The instructors are
paid a percentage of revenue depending on how many people register for the class, so there is incentive for them to
get more people. In the past, the revenue has been distributed 80% to instructors and 20% to the City. Staff has
been working to renegotiate the percentages to 75/25 and 70/30. The instructors have been cooperative because they
recognize that the City needs more revenue to continue to administer the programs. The previous 20% split was not
sufficient to cover the City’s cost of advertising and registering participants and providing space for the classes.
• Staff will propose changes to the Edmonds Municipal Code to make it easier to allow concessions in parks. The
current code language is cumbersome and requires a public hearing and City Council approval. The proposed new
language would give the mayor authority to enter into concession agreements so that concessions can be treated more
like a business. She pointed out that a citizen has operated a day camp at Yost Park for several years at no charge.
While the camp provides a public benefit, the operator has been allowed to use public land without paying for it.
The operator is also not currently required to provide insurance, so the City has increased liability exposure. She
said the same is true for the dive shop and compass course school, which operate out of the dive park free of charge
and without providing insurance. The proposed code amendments would help clear up some of the problems with
the current process by requiring concessionaires to enter into formal contracts with the City, provide proof of
insurance, and provide some public benefit.
• The public has frequently asked for more amenities in the parks, particularly at Marina Beach Park, and the new
code language would encourage these types of uses to benefit the public. In addition, the City would receive a
percentage of the revenue, which could be used to fund other park projects.
CONTINUED PUBLIC HEARING ON PROCESS AND NAMING RECOMMENDATION FOR THE PARK AT
THE OLD MILLTOWN SITE
Chair Lovell noted that the initial public hearing for naming the park at Old Milltown was held on December 14th, and it was
continued to January 11th. He recalled that at the initial hearing, the Board received numerous materials regarding past
proposals and plans related to the site. They agreed it would be appropriate to review the materials before making a
recommendation to the City Council. He particularly referred to the document titled, “Renovation of Old Milltown Garden,”
which was prepared in 2010 by the Edmonds Floretum Garden Club.
Board Member Cloutier arrived to the meeting at 7:40 p.m.
Leigh Bennett, Edmonds, Hazel Miller Foundation Board Member, recalled that he spoke to the Board at the December
14th hearing on behalf of the Hazel Miller Foundation, and was present once again to address the Board’s inquiries. He said
he reviewed the minutes from the last public hearing and found them to be accurate as to what was said. Because she was not
in attendance at the December 14th hearing, Board Member Stewart asked Mr. Bennett to summarize the comments he made
earlier.
Mr. Bennett advised that the Hazel Miller Foundation was established after Hazel Miller’s death in 2010. Its purpose is to
enhance quality of life by offering grant funding to organizations and municipalities in South Snohomish County, particularly
the City of Edmonds where she lived for 30 years. The Foundation was fully funded less than one year ago, and they now
have between $11 million and $12 million dollars. It is intended that the Foundation will exist in perpetuity. Once fully
operational, they will give away $500,000 to $600,000 per year. As per Ms. Miller’s legal documents, the Mayor of Edmonds
will appoint members to fill vacant Foundation Board positions.
Mr. Bennett reported that in 2011, the Edmonds Parks, Recreation and Cultural Services Department submitted a grant
request asking the Foundation for either $40,000 to assist in the development expenses of the Old Milltown Park or up to
$88,000, which is more than 50% of the total construction cost. The understanding was that staff would do their best to
shepherd the Foundation’s desired name for the park through the process. The Foundation Board voted to accept the
$88,000 grant request on the condition that the new park would be named “Hazel Miller Plaza.” He specifically referred to
the City’s adopted Park Naming Policy and noted that Criteria E allows the City to name a park after “an individual or
Packet Page 191 of 218
DRAFT
Planning Board Minutes
January 11, 2012 Page 5
organization that contributes significantly to the acquisition or development of the facility to be named.” Because the
Foundation is offering to provide more than 50% of the total construction cost for the project, the Foundation Board felt it
would be consistent with the City’s Park Naming Policy to name the park “Hazel Miller Plaza.” He also referred to Criteria
D, which allows the City to name a park after “a commonly recognized historical event, group, organization or individual
(living or deceased).” He emphasized that the Foundation will become more recognized in future years and will exist in
perpetuity. He said the policy also states that the City is to conduct a poll to obtain citizen input on potential names, which
was done by the Parks, Recreation and Cultural Services Department. He noted that of the 43 names submitted, more than
half included Hazel Miller’s name and at least 25% supported the name “Hazel Miller Plaza.”
Mr. Bennett recalled that at the last meeting the Board asked if the Foundation Board support a variation of the name, and he
emphasized that the Board strongly believes it is important to use Hazel Miller’s full name, and not just her last name. They
agreed that they were to not willing to compromise their position in this regard. It is now up to the Board to determine if a
different name is so important that the City should elect to turn down the grant funding. He also emphasized that the
Foundation Board wants to start off their relationship with the City on a good and healthy foundation, and they view this as an
opportunity for the City.
Mayor Earling thanked the Board for their service to the community. He commented that one of the City’s successes is their
volunteers who are willing to fill important roles and make good decisions on behalf of the citizens. He said he is fortunate
enough to have known the Miller Family. They were quiet people who loved the community, and the legacy they have left for
the community is important for the Board to consider, understand and appreciate. He said he supports naming the park
“Hazel Miller Plaza” so the City can accept the $88,000 grant from the Hazel Miller Foundation. This would free up money
that can be used for other park projects.
Mayor Earling said it is important to keep in mind that the Foundation was formed to benefit the community in perpetuity.
That means the Foundation will still be in place and making grants in the community when the Board members are gone.
They have already distributed grant funding throughout the community. He said he is on the Senior Services of Snohomish
County Board, which was one of the first recipients of a $500,000 grant from the foundation. Not only did he know the
Millers, but he knows most of the Foundation Board Members. They are thoughtful people who make good decisions. The
Old Milltown Park is one of the first large projects they have expressed an interest in, and accepting their generous grant offer
will not only leave a great legacy for the Miller Family, but the City will know they were one of the first to receive a major
grant. He said he supports the name proposed by the Foundation, and he knows the community will appreciate the park for
years to come.
Diana White, Edmonds, Hazel Miller Foundation Board, agreed that the Foundation has an excellent Board, and they
think hard on the decisions they make. She said she fully supports the Foundation’s proposed name of “Hazel Miller Plaza.”
She said Mr. and Mrs. Miller were very generous in what they did and she continually thinks of them watching the things the
Foundation does with their donation. Ms. White said she is also a newly elected member of the Edmonds School Board, and
she will share the Planning Board’s earlier discussions about partnering with the City to provide recreational opportunities for
the community.
Board Member Tibbott asked if the Foundation foresees the possibility of on-going support for the programs offered at the
new park. Mr. Bennett referred to an email he sent to Ms. Hite in which he stated that the City could always submit a grant
proposal for park maintenance in the future, and the Foundation would make a decision on the request at that time.
Board Member Tibbott said he researched the Foundation’s website to learn more about the projects they have contributed to,
as well as what they have in mind for the future. He asked if Mr. Bennett would consider Hazel Miller’s name as the
trademark of the Foundation. Mr. Bennett said Hazel Miller is the Foundation’s legal name. He recalled the Board
previously inquired if the Foundation would support the name “Miller Plaza,” and he responded in an email that it is
important to use Ms. Miller’s entire name because “Miller” is a common name and they want the park to be specifically
associated with Hazel Miller. The Foundation believes it is important to recognize that the funds originated from Hazel
Miller.

Board Member Clarke said he is grateful that there are individuals, families and organizations that have a desire to give back
to the community, particularly in perpetuity. It is a wonderful blessing for organizations to receive funding from the
Foundation to improve the quality of life in the community. He said that, as a public board, the Planning Board has an
obligation to represent the constituents, and this is only the third time in the past 30 years that the City has named a new park.
The last two were named after individuals, but all previous parks were named after streets, locations, etc. He expressed
concern that the City’s adopted Park Naming Policy does not give exact guidelines on this issue. They know that if an
organization or individual donates more than 50% of the cost of project construction, the City has the ability to name the park
after that organization or individual. However, the Board must also provide a forum for the public to voice their opinions and
ideas, recognizing that the City Council will make the final decision.
Board Member Clarke asked if Mayor Earling would agree that the Park Naming Policy needs to be refined and updated,
particularly to clarify who gets to choose the name of the park. Mayor Earling answered that any time the Board determines
that a policy is not working, they can recommend that the policy be reviewed and updated appropriately. He said that while
the policy may be somewhat unclear, it does not preclude the Board from accepting the park name proposed by the
Foundation. He encouraged the Board to take action on the park name now, and then ask the City Council to consider
revisions to the policy at some point in the future.
Chair Lovell recalled that the Board worked with the City’s previous Parks, Recreation and Cultural Services Director to
create the current Park Naming Policy, which was adopted by the City Council in 2009. While he agreed with Board Member
Clarke’s concern that the policy may need to be updated, he cautioned that perhaps some flexibility was intended to allow the
Board to act on various situations that come up that are in the best interest of the citizens. He encouraged the Board to move
forward with a recommended park name, and then work with staff to forward a recommendation to the City Council that the
policy be updated.
Board Member Clarke recalled that during a previous park naming process, a City Council Member indicated he would not
vote for naming a park after an individual who was still living, but the policy does not support this decision. Upon
researching policies from other cities and counties in the area, he found that some are much more specific. He suggested the
Board recommend the document be updated at some point in the future to provide greater clarity. However, he agreed that
the Board should not postpone their recommendation regarding the Old Milltown Park name until after the policy has been
updated.
Vice Chair Reed said he found the additional information provided at the last meeting to be helpful in understanding and
recognizing the Edmonds Floretum Garden Club’s effort and substantial contributions to the process. Irrespective of what the
park is named, he said it is very important that significant donors and organizations are recognized in some way when the park
is completed. Ms. Hite agreed and advised that individuals and organizations who have contributed significantly to the park
project will be recognized by having their names placed on plaques that will be installed on planter insets.
Vice Chair Reed said he highly appreciates the Foundation’s gesture. He suggested there has been enough publicity that the
public is aware of what the Foundation has done, is doing and will continue to do for the community. He said he is impressed
with the list of projects for which the Foundation has already provided support.
Board Member Stewart also thanked the Foundation for their generous donation towards the park construction. She said she
wished she could have known Ms. Miller. The City should be honored by the legacy that she has left and accept the donation.
She noted that many who submitted names for the park were in favor of using Hazel Miller’s name is some fashion, so naming
the park “Hazel Miller Plaza” should not create controversy. She agreed it would be appropriate to recognize others who
have contributed to the process, as mentioned earlier by Ms. Hite. She also suggested that the sign to the park could also
include (in small letters) the words “at Old Milltown.” She explained that people who have lived in the community recognize
Old Milltown as a destination, and including it on the sign would let people know right where to go without diminishing the
name “Hazel Miller Plaza.” She said she is not concerned about using Ms. Miller’s first and last name as part of the park
name. Because the Foundation is named after Hazel Miller, it seems appropriate to use the full name at the park name, as
well. She said she is in favor of supporting the Foundation’s request.
Chair Lovell summarized that:
Packet Page 193 of 218

January 11, 2012 Page 7
• When the City Council approved the project last August, they temporarily loaned the Parks Department $70,000
from the REET Fund to aid in fulfilling funding needs for construction. However, the Parks, Recreation and Cultural
Services Department was instructed to go out and raise funds to refill the kitty.
• The design and construction currently in progress is not based on the Edmonds Floretum Garden Club’s “Renovation
Plan” dated October, 2010.
• Many citizens, friends, and organizations within Edmonds have given much work, history, contribution and input to
the program now being realized at the park site. All of these efforts and contributions will be visually and
permanently designed and displayed within the park’s infrastructure as coordinated and led by the Parks, Recreation
and Cultural Services Department.
• The Parks, Recreation and Cultural Services Department fulfilled the City Council’s charge of procuring additional
funding for the construction of the park by applying for and obtaining a two-part grant award from the Hazel Miller
Foundation. The larger grant award of $88,000 under current consideration is “conditioned” by the Hazel Miller
Foundation to provide that the restored park be named “Hazel Miller Plaza.”
• The Park Naming Policy has been followed.
• Until the City may choose to identify and acquire same from independent sources, the maintenance and upkeep of the
new park will be carried out by the City’s in-house forces.
CHAIR LOVELL MOVED THAT THE PLANNING BOARD RECOMMEND TO THE CITY COUNCIL THAT
THE NEWLY CONSTRUCTED PARK AT THE CORNER OF FIFTH AVENUE AND MAPLE STREET BE
NAMED “HAZEL MILLER PLAZA.” HE FURTHER MOVED THAT THE BOARD RECOMMEND THAT THE
NAMES OF OTHER CONTRIBUTING INDIVIDUALS, CLUBS, AND ORGANIZATIONAL ENTITIES TO
EITHER THE PARK’S HISTORY OR FUNDING BE RECOGNIZED THROUGH PERMANENTLY-INSTALLED
PLAQUES AT THE NEW PARK, SAID PROCESS BEING LED BY THE PARKS, RECREATION AND
CULTURAL SERVICES DEPARTMENT. BOARD MEMBER CLARKE SECONDED THE MOTION.
Board Member Tibbott asked if the City would have the ability to rename the park if the Foundation ceases to exist. Board
Member Johnson pointed out that Item 3.B of the Park Naming Policy states that “parks and facilities named after individuals
shall not be changed unless it is found that because of the individual’s character the continued use of their name would not be
in the best interest of the community.”
THE MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY. (Note: As an alternate, Board Member Ellis did not vote.)
BOARD MEMBER CLARKE MOVED THAT THE PLANNING BOARD RECOMMEND TO THE CITY
COUNCIL THE CREATION OF A PERMANENT PLAQUE THAT BEARS THE IMAGE OF HAZEL MILLER
AND A DISCRIPTION OF HER CONTRIBUTION TO THE COMMUNITY THAT WILL REMAIN IN THE PARK
IN PERPETUITY. BOARD MEMBER JOHNSON SECONDED THE MOTION.
Board Member Clarke pointed out that the proposed plaque would be similar to the one that was installed at Hickman Park in
recognition of Robert O. Hickman.
Vice Chair Reed recalled that at the December 14th meeting it was discussed that the Parks staff would work with the
Foundation to design the sign. Ms. Hite emphasized that the sign would be designed to meet the City’s adopted sign
standards. The Foundation understands this requirement, and they will have an opportunity to view the final mock up before
the sign is constructed. Vice Chair Reed asked if the motion on the floor would be consistent with the City’s current sign
standard. Ms. Hite answered affirmatively. She said she supports the proposed motion, but she suggested the Board seek
feedback from the Foundation as to whether a sign with Hazel Miller’s image would be acceptable to them before forwarding
the recommendation to the City Council.
Board Member Clarke explained that there is value to the community to help future generations understand those who have
contributed throughout their lives. This kind of understanding and context is what often inspires other people to rise to
something better. It is a wonderful way to preserve history and create an inspiring memorial.

Mr. Bennett said the Foundation Board Members in attendance believe the entire Foundation Board would support the
concept of including Ms. Miller’s image and a description of her contribution on a park sign. He noted that one Foundation
Board Member was a long-time friend of the Miller’s, and they are certain he would support the idea, as well.
THE MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY. (Note: As an alternate, Board Member Ellis did not vote.)
Board Member Johnson referred to a letter from Betty Larman of the Edmonds Floretum Garden Club, which talks about an
agreement that was signed by the Parks, Recreation and Cultural Services Director and Mayor Haakenson. Ms. Hite said she
was unable to find a copy of the signed agreement in the City Clerk’s office. Therefore, she concluded that the agreement was
likely never signed. Board Member Johnson said the letter from Ms. Larman also states that the original design included a
gazebo or bandstand structure. Ms. Hite explained that when the City Council charged her with completing the park, several
citizens expressed concern about the proposed design. She explored how the plan came about and met with members of the
Garden Club, including Ms. Larman, to discuss these concerns. Particular concerns were that the proposed bandstand would
block the view to businesses at Old Milltown, no utilities were identified in the plan to accommodate the structure, and
drainage issues were not considered. In addition, the Garden Club’s process did not include public input.
As per the City Council’s direction that she collaborate with the Garden Club to redesign the project, a committee of 20
individuals was formed, including members of the Citizens Economic Development Commission, Planning Board, Arts
Festival Foundation, Edmonds Floretum Garden Club, Alliance of Citizens for Edmonds, and Edmonds in Bloom. The
committee reviewed the Garden Club’s plan and identified their concerns. Everyone agreed, including the Garden Club
Members, that the bandstand should be eliminated.
Board Member Johnson recalled that four couples contributed money specifically for the bandstand structure. She asked if
they have been notified of the design change. Ms. Hite answered that all four have confirmed their commitment to the park.
Ms. Hite reminded the Board that part of the Garden Club’s proposed agreement with the City indicated that the Garden Club
would be responsible for maintaining the park in perpetuity. Several members of the Garden Club expressed concern that
they would not be able to fulfill this responsibility. It was agreed that the City would be responsible for park maintenance, but
the Garden Club would provide input on appropriate plant materials.
THE PUBLIC HEARING WAS CLOSED.
ELECTION OF 2012 PLANNING BOARD OFFICERS
The Board discussed whether or not a Board Member was limited as to the number of terms he/she could serve as chair of the
Board. They agreed there was no limitation. Board Member Clarke pointed out that three Board Members’ terms (Lovell,
Clarke and Stewart) expire at the end of 2012.
Board Member Johnson reminded the Board that they previously discussed the need to review and perhaps update their rules
and procedures. However, this task was not accomplished in 2011. Chair Lovell agreed to contact staff to schedule this
discussion on a future agenda.
BOARD MEMBER TIBBOTT NOMINATED BOARD MEMBER LOVELL AS CHAIR OF THE BOARD. THE
NOMINATION WAS SECONDED BY BOARD MEMBER CLARKE. THERE WERE NO OTHER
NOMINATIONS, AND THE NOMINATION WAS UNANIMOUSLY APPROVED.
BOARD MEMBER STEWART NOMINATED BOARD MEMBER CLOUTIER AS VICE CHAIR OF THE
BOARD. BOARD MEMBER REED SECONDED THE NOMINATION.
Board Member Johnson commented that the City Council typically bases their chair and vice chair appointments on longevity.
She suggested the Board consider the same approach.

REVIEW OF EXTENDED AGENDA
Chair Lovell reviewed the proposed schedule for Strategic Plan Stakeholder Focus Group Sessions as follows:
• January 17th at 7:00 p.m. – Parks and Recreation – Board Members Stewart and Reed would attend.
• January 18th at 1:00 p.m. – Transportation – Board Members Tibbott and Johnson would attend.
• January 18th at 7:00 p.m. – Economic Development – Board Members Lovell, Tibbott and Cloutier would attend.
• January 19th at 1:00 p.m. and 7:00 p.m. – Individuals and Special Interest Groups
• January 24th at 6:45 p.m. – Joint meeting with the Economic Development Commission, Planning Board and City
Council.
Chair Lovell advised that he would work with staff to update the extended agenda to incorporate the Port of Edmonds’ Harbor
Square Redevelopment Master Plan process, the Strategic Planning Process, and the Shoreline Master Program Update. The
Commission agreed to tentatively schedule their retreat for February 22nd. They also agreed to schedule a review of the Park
Naming Policy. Board Members were encouraged to review Portland’s policy, which was forwarded to them by Vice Chair
Stewart.
PLANNING BOARD CHAIR COMMENTS
Chair Lovell did not make any additional comments during this portion of the meeting.
PLANNING BOARD MEMBER COMMENTS
Board Member Stewart challenged the Board Members to use electronic versions of the documents that are prepared for each
meeting. They should set an example for City staff and others to use less paper. She said she recently read a study that
indicated the City of Seattle uses 74 million sheets of paper each year, which would equal 40 space needles in height. She
cautioned that the environmental impact associated with this high level of paper use is substantial. She shared other facts
brought out in the City of Seattle study and said she plans to conduct a similar review for the City of Edmonds.
Board Member Clarke thanked Board Member Reed for serving as vice chair of the Board for the past year. He noted that
Board Member Reed has served on the Board since October 24, 2006. He thanked him for his leadership contribution. He
also thanked Chair Lovell and Vice Chair Stewart for accepting the responsibility to lead the Board in 2012.

AUDIENCE COMMENTS
Andy Eccleshall, Historic Preservation Commission, presented each of the Board Members with a copy of the 18-month
calendar that was created by the Historic Preservation Commission. He advised that the calendar illustrates various historic
sites and events in Edmonds. It is being offered to the public free of charge as a public outreach tool to raise awareness about
historic preservation. Copies of the calendar can be obtained at City Hall, the library and the Edmonds Museum.
PUBLIC HEARING ON PLANNING BOARD’S PROCESS AND NAMING RECOMMENDATION FOR THE
PARK AT THE OLD MILLTOWN SITE AT FIFTH AVENUE SOUTH AND MAPLE STREET
Ms. Hite advised that the purpose of the public hearing is to consider potential names for the new park that is currently under
construction at Old Milltown. She reviewed that the park site was purchased by the City in 2008. In 2010 the Edmonds
Floretum Garden Club agreed to develop and maintain the site in perpetuity, but this agreement was never signed and made
official. When park staff met with representatives from the Garden Club in January 2011 to discuss the agreement further, the
Garden Club informed them that they would be unable to fulfill their obligation. Subsequent conversations with members of
the Garden Club indicated support for a design committee to move the project forward.

Ms. Hite explained that when she was hired by the City in January 2011, the City Council indicated a strong desire to get the
Old Milltown Park constructed as a gateway for the downtown. The park is intended to be a gathering place for the
community. She said she spent her first three months at the City meeting with members of the community to learn, listen and
gather information. During this time, many concerns were voiced about the park at Old Mill Town, and these were identified
at the City Council retreat in February. She also met with the City Council and the Planning Board in April, May and June to
discuss the issue further. It was decided that the park should be redesigned to address the concerns. A design committee was
formed, comprised of 20 members from the community, to prepare a new design proposal, which was presented to the City
Council for final adoption in August of 2011.
Ms. Hite advised that the Floretum Garden Club has been the driving force behind the Old Mill Town Park project, and
members of the group participated on the design committee and met with staff throughout the year to discuss their ideas and
concerns. She emphasized that the City has every intention of recognizing their efforts at the park site, as well as the efforts
of other individuals and groups who have contributed significantly to the project. The design calls for precast planters lining
the front entry. These planters will be custom designed to provide space for plaques to recognize those who donated more
than $1,000.
Ms. Hite said it has been amazing to see the amount of community support that has come forward for the project. The
estimated cost of the project is $150,000, depending on the artistic elements that are incorporated into the design. This cost
includes design work, demolition, permitting, utility work, grading, etc. She noted that a lot of work has been done in house
to construct the raised bed garden formations. She specifically reviewed the more significant contributions as follows:
• The Floretum Garden Club provided $12,000, of which $2,000 was allocated for the purchase of a bench in memory
of one of their members. The remaining $10,000 is to be used for the plantings and the raised bed garden features.
• Edmonds in Bloom contributed $4,000, and indicated their interest in supporting the garden features at the park.
• The Hubbard Family Foundation provided $4,000 and indicated their interest in supporting artistic elements.
• The Edmonds Arts Festival Foundation also contributed $4,000 to fund artistic features.
• The Edmonds Arts Commission provided $2,000 for artistic features.
• Rebecca Wolfe contributed $3,000 to purchase the drinking fountain in memory of her late husband.
• Two other individuals contributed $2,000 to purchase benches for the park, as well.
• The Alliance of Citizens of Edmonds (ACE) contributed $200, with a strong offer to help raise more money if
needed.
Ms. Hite summarized that total revenues collected from individual and group donations to date are $33,700. The City
Council originally allocated $40,000 for the project. However, because they had a strong interest in getting the project
started, they allocated an additional $70,000 from the Real Estate Excise Tax (REET) fund, on the contingent basis that City
staff search for additional grant funding to support the project and replenish the REET fund. She noted that it is important to
replenish the REET fund because it is the only capital fund for parks and there are several projects in queue for next year.
Ms. Hite explained that in accordance with the City’s adopted Park Naming Policy, the Planning Board is required to conduct
a public hearing and make a formal recommendation to the City Council. She specifically noted that one the Park Naming
Policy allows the City to name a park after an individual or organization that contributes significantly to the acquisition or
development of the facility. She advised that the Parks, Recreation and Cultural Services staff solicited name proposals, and a
list of the 43 nominations received was forwarded to the Planning Board on November 22nd. She noted that 25 of the 43
nominations include the name “Hazel Miller” in some fashion, and about 25% of the nominations were for the specific name
of “Hazel Miller Plaza.”
Ms. Hite said Hazel Miller and her husband were long-time residents of Edmonds. Upon Ms. Miller’s passing in 2009, she
donated large amounts of money to several organizations, the largest of which was to create the Hazel Miller Foundation,
which is dedicated to serving the citizens of Edmonds and South Snohomish County through programs and projects that serve
the public’s benefit, especially in the areas of education and youth services, poverty alleviation and hunger, civic and
community services and amenities, the environment and culture and the arts. Ms. Hite reported that this fall, the Hazel Miller
Foundation awarded the City of Edmonds an $88,000 grant to develop the Old Milltown park site, pending the name of the
Packet Page 198 of 218
DRAFT
Planning Board Minutes
December 14, 2011 Page 3
site as the “Hazel Miller Plaza.” The Foundation’s interest is to ensure the community recognizes Mrs. Miller as a vital
member of the community, and naming the park after her represents an excellent opportunity to accomplish this goal.
Ms. Hite said both the staff and Mayor Earling are strongly recommending the Planning Board consider a recommendation to
name the Old Milltown park site as the “Hazel Miller Plaza” to recognize Mrs. Miller’s efforts to support Edmonds through
contributions to both the City and South Snohomish County. The Mayor has indicated his strong support for the Hazel Miller
Foundation.
Vice Chair Reed asked what the budget was at the time the new design was reviewed and approved by the City Council in
July and August. Ms. Hite answered that the budget was $125,000, plus an additional $25,000 for utility work. In response
to Board Member Johnson, Ms. Hite said that park acquisition costs were $250,000. Board Member Johnson asked if the
City considered the total cost of the park (acquisition and construction) when determining whether or not the Foundation’s
donation was significant enough to warrant naming the park “Hazel Miller Plaza.” Ms. Hite replied that the Park Naming
Policy actually says the City can name a park after an individual or organization that contributes significantly to the
acquisition or development of the facility.
Chair Lovell asked if the park project is proceeding on budget at this time. Ms. Hite answered affirmatively. Chair Lovell
asked about the anticipated completion date for construction. Ms. Hite answered that they have run into some issues with
deteriorated boards and posts on the adjacent boardwalk, and this has caused a one-month delay in construction. They are
now ready to proceed, and they are anticipating completion by the end of January.
Chair Lovell asked how the in-house work costs are being tracked. Ms. Hite answered that the materials purchased for the in-
house work are funded by the project budget. While the labor hours are being tracked, they are not being charged as part of
the project costs. She summarized that the total project budget is $150,000, plus in-house labor. Chair Lovell asked if the
project is expected to be completed within budget. Ms. Hite answered that she anticipates the project can be completed under
budget. Chair Lovell stressed the importance of being up front with the citizens about the actual cost of the project, including
in-house labor, so they can avoid the confusion that occurred with the Haines Park cost overruns.
Vice Chair Reed asked if the Floretum Garden Club is still making the commitment to maintain the park. Ms. Hite said
representatives from the Garden Club have been working with the project’s horticulturist to identify plantings for the garden
areas. They will help plant the materials and maintain the gardens, but the City will be responsible to oversee the
maintenance program in the future.
Board Member Clarke reminded the Board that their role as Parks Board is to be an advisory body to the City Council. The
makeup of the City Council changes with each election. Because there has been confusion in the past, he suggested it would
be good for the Board to carefully review the history of park naming in the City. He noted that this is the third park the City
has named in the last three years, and no parks were named in the prior 20 years. He made the following observations:
• The majority of parks in the City are named after districts or the character of the site.
• Those parks that are named after individuals have generally been for historic figures in the community (i.e. Brackett,
Yost, Hutt, etc.)
• Hutt Park was a donation of land with a specific name based on the deed restriction.
• Mathay Ballinger Park, located in the southeast corner of the City, is named after the George Mathay family, who
owned a saw mill in the area where Scott’s Restaurant is currently located. Their son built a subdivision on 79th
Place West, and the property along the east side of the Interurban right-of-way was excess land the family owned and
later donated to Snohomish County. A park was developed on the site, and the City eventually acquired the property
as part of annexation.
• Recently, the City made a decision to rename a portion of the Pine Street Park Playfield after Mr. Myring, and a
special plaque with his name was installed at the park.
• Hickman Park was the first park named after an individual who was living. While some concern was voiced, there
was nothing in the park naming policy that requires that individuals must be deceased. The Planning Board, as part
of their recommendation, named the play area after J.P. Patches. Also, a group raised funding to develop a sport
Packet Page 199 of 218
DRAFT
Planning Board Minutes
December 14, 2011 Page 4
court at the park that was named after a young man from the community who had passed away. Small plaques were
placed in both of these locations to recognize these two individuals.
• Haines Park was named after a historic family, but a portion of the park (the overlook) was also named after a former
public servant, Chief David Stern. He emphasized that while there is a plaque in this location to memorialize Chief
Stern, the park is not named after him.
Board Member Clarke said that after visiting numerous parks in the area, he appreciates the complexity of the park naming
process, and he participated on the Board’s park naming committee on two occasions. He expressed his belief that the City
should eventually come up with a new name for the “mini park.” Ms. Hite agreed to bring this issue forward in 2012.
Board Member Clarke referred to the Park Naming Policy and noted the criteria requires that multiple characteristics of a
park be considered when deciding what to name it. He invited staff to share their thoughts about how to balance the conflicts
between the generosity of citizens (individuals, groups, corporations, etc.) and the community’s desire to name a park a
particular name that does not incorporate the donor’s name. Ms. Hite acknowledged that not only is this a struggle for the
City, it has become a national struggle, as well. As park budgets become more and more constrained, governments are
looking for revenue opportunities to support park services other than their general funds. Concepts such as concessions in
parks, selling advertising space in parks and private donations are becoming more popular. When determining the correct
balance, she tries to keep in mind the benefits and cost of each proposal to citizens of Edmonds. In the current case, the Hazel
Miller Foundation has offered a significant donation to the community. Aside from the $88,000, their presence in the
community in the future is also very important. The park naming process ensures that the City obtains input from all
interested citizens. The citizens were notified of the Foundation’s generous offer in exchange for naming the park “Hazel
Miller Plaza.” However, they were also invited to provide input for other potential names for the park. She reminded the
Board that the majority of nominations included Mrs. Miller’s name in some form.
Ms. Hite advised that since the Staff Report was sent out, the City received two additional comments, both of which asked
that the efforts of the Floretum Garden Club be recognized in some manner, which she agrees is important. She noted that the
Garden Club previously was promised a plaque at the park to identify those who donated $1,000 or more, and the City intends
to honor this promise. However, staff is not proposing that the park be named after the Floretum Garden Club.
Board Member Clarke observed that most parks in the City have names that include three words, one of which typically refers
to a geographic location. He asked a representative from the Hazel Miller Foundation to provide feedback about the
Foundation’s willingness to be flexible. He referred to the letter from the Foundation, which suggests that the Foundation
should also be allowed to approve the park sign. He reminded the Board that the City has a sign standard for all parks, which
includes not only the park name, but lists the various amenities that can be found at the park. Ms. Hite responded that the
park sign would be consistent with the City’s new sign design.
Ms. Hite explained that it is becoming increasingly difficult to adequately operate a park system without private donations
because of budget cuts. It makes sense for the City to seek opportunities for donations and partnerships to help fund the park
services.
Leigh Bennett, Edmonds, said he is a member of the Hazel Member Foundation Board. He thanked Ms. Hite for her great
explanation of the Foundation’s proposal. He referred to information he provided prior to the meeting regarding the history
and mission of the Foundation. He specifically noted that Hazel Miller was a 30-year resident of Edmonds, and she loved the
City. He advised that the Foundation was established upon Ms. Miller’s death in 2010. In its nearly two full years of grant
making, it has progressively increased its gift giving in the areas of education, youth services, poverty alleviation and hunger,
civic and community services and amenities, the environment and culture and the arts totaling nearly $500,000. In
accordance with its mission, all recipients directly benefit the general population of Edmonds and South Snohomish County.
In addition to the Foundation, Mrs. Miller also made significant donations in her will to the Seattle Children’s Hospital
Foundation, the Millionair Club charity, Fred Hutchison Cancer Research Center, and the Salvation Army.
Mr. Bennett advised that once fully operational, the Foundation will have between $500,000 and $600,000 to donate in
Edmonds and South Snohomish County each year, and the Foundation will exist into perpetuity. He specifically noted that in
its short life, the Foundation has provided financial support for the Edmonds 4th of July celebration, Edmonds Center for the
Packet Page 200 of 218
DRAFT
Planning Board Minutes
December 14, 2011 Page 5
Arts, local food banks and scholarships for local school children. Again, he said the Foundation is dedicated to serving the
citizens of Edmonds and South Snohomish County through programs and projects that serve the public benefit.
Mr. Bennett advised that in the summer of 2011, the City of Edmonds submitted a grant application for funding to develop the
park at Old Milltown. Their initial request was for a small amount, but a subsequent application increased the grant request to
$88,000. As part of the application, staff indicated their willingness to help the Foundation through the park naming process
if they were willing to donate more than half of the construction costs. He said the Foundation believes it is critical to have
Mrs. Miller’s name established in the City where she lived, and the park at Old Milltown represents an opportunity for them
to accomplish this goal. It is important to the Foundation that Mrs. Miller’s previous and future contributions to the
community are acknowledged. They hope the Planning Board will recognize this need and recommend the City Council
approve the name “Hazel Miller Plaza.”
Board Member Clarke observed that in his profession, he works with a number of high-net-worth families and foundations
and everyone has a sensitivity associated with philanthropy. He asked if there is anything in the legal papers associated with
Mrs. Miller’s request that specifically asks that her name be attached to her contributions in any way. Mr. Bennett answered
no. Board Member Clarke asked if Mrs. Miller’s name was attached to her contributions to Seattle Children’s Hospital, the
Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center, the Salvation Army, etc. Mr. Bennett said he does not know the answer to this
question, but he assumes that some recognition was provided for each of these donations.
Board Member Clarke referred to the Foundation’s letter, which specifically states that their donation is contingent upon the
City naming the park “Hazel Miller Plaza.” He reminded the Board that the Park Naming Policy calls for a public hearing, a
recommendation by the Planning Board, and then a final decision by the City Council. He asked if the Foundation would
consider another name if that is the outcome of the park naming process. Mr. Bennett emphasized that the letter is clear that
if the name “Hazel Miller Plaza” is not ultimately approved by the City Council, the Foundation would withdraw the grant
funding. He explained that this issue was discussed as the recent Foundation Board meeting, and the Board unanimously felt
it was important to stick with the name they original suggested.
Board Member Clarke asked if the Foundation Board considered any of the other names that were nominated by the public.
Mr. Bennett again stated that the Foundation Board believes the name they submitted is important for the foundation and the
relationship they will have with the City of Edmonds in the future beyond this particular park, itself. While he acknowledged
that the Board did not have a thorough discussion of all the names, he noted that more than half of the nominations included
Mrs. Miller’s name in some form, and about one quarter of them recommended “Hazel Miller Plaza.” He emphasized that
from the Foundation’s standpoint, it is less about the money and more about where they are going in the future. They also
carefully considered what Mrs. Miller would have wanted, and they agreed that she would have wanted to have her name on
this particular park. He said the Foundation is not expecting her name to be placed every time money is donated, but they felt
it was important to stick with their original request.
Board Member Clarke summarized the Foundation’s position that if the City does not name the park “Hazel Miller Plaza,” the
Foundation will withdraw their grant offer. Mr. Bennett agreed that is the Foundation’s position. Board Member Clarke
asked if the Foundation would consider the option of adding to the name of the park, such as “Hazel Miller Plaza at Old
Milltown.” Mr. Bennett said that all on the Foundation Board agreed that they did not want to have additional names on the
park. Board Member Clarke summarized that adding the location of the park as part of the name would be unacceptable to
the Foundation. Mr. Bennett agreed and added that there is only one name the Foundation would support.
Chair Lovell emphasized that it is important to include input from other citizens as part of the record. He specifically referred
to an email the Board received from Rich Senderoff just prior to the meeting asking that the Board consider the name “Hazel
Miller Floretum Plaza.” He recalled Ms. Hite’s earlier comment that additional plaques would be placed at the park to
recognize the contribution of the Floretum Club, as well as others who have contributed significantly to the park. Chair
Lovell also referred to a memorandum the Board received from Board Member Stewart, indicating her support for including
“Old Milltown” in the name. She also suggested that “plaza” would be better than “courtyard.”
Board Member Tibbott asked if the Foundation would consider a contribution to a future project in the City as opposed to this
particular park that is currently under construction. Mr. Bennett answered that if the City Council does not approve the name
Packet Page 201 of 218
DRAFT
Planning Board Minutes
December 14, 2011 Page 6
“Hazel Miller Plaza,” there will likely be other opportunities. However, the Foundation is interested in placing Mrs. Miller’s
name on a significant feature in the City, and they feel the park at Old Milltown fits well, given the size of the Foundation.
Board Member Tibbott asked if it possible the Foundation would consider contributing an entire year’s funds to a City project
in the future. Mr. Bennett answered that he is unable to make a commitment on behalf of the Foundation Board.
Board Member Tibbott pointed out that it could be a long time before the Foundation is able to establish a track record for
contributions to the City of Edmonds. Mr. Bennett agreed that it will take a few more years for the Foundation to be fully
operational. He emphasized that because the money must be spent in Edmonds and South Snohomish County, it is highly
likely the Foundation will provide a significant benefit to the Edmonds community.
Board Member Tibbott asked Mr. Bennett to describe the Foundation’s mission and the types of contributions they have made
and plan to make in the future. Mr. Bennett referred the Board to the Foundation’s website for a list of contributions that have
been made, as well as information about future contributions. He reminded the Commission of his earlier comments about the
types of projects and programs the Foundation will support. He summarized that, in its short span, the Foundation has given
away more that $5 million.
Board Member Tibbott asked how widely the City distributed their request for park name nominations. He said he was
curious about why so many of the nominations included Hazel Miller’s name in some form. He asked if the nominations were
submitted by individuals or groups. Ms. Hite answered that the request for park name nominations was announced to the
public through local news organizations, and notification was also posted at the park. In addition, people approached staff to
submit suggested names. She noted that individuals from one group, in particular, submitted the name “Hazel Miller Plaza.”
Board Member Tibbott expressed concern that the City’s outreach effort only netted 42 nominations, and one quarter of them
were for the same name. Ms. Hite pointed out that the Foundation’s grant offer of $88,000, as well as their proposed name
for the park, was published in a news story. Board Member Tibbott pointed out that many people stated they were nominating
“Hazel Miller Plaza” because it would save the City $88,000. Board Member Clarke pointed out that Nominations 26
through 33 must have been submitted by people from the same group, since they all included the exact same reasons for their
nomination. Board Member Tibbott said he would like to hear other reasons, besides the $88,000 contribution, for naming
the park after Mrs. Miller. He would also like to learn more about other contributions Mrs. Miller and/or the Foundation have
made to the City of Edmonds. Ms. Hite noted that some of the nominations recognized Mrs. Miller as being an Edmonds
benefactor and an outstanding person in the community. Mr. Bennett referred to his earlier comments in which he identified
the programs and projects the Foundation has supported over the past few years. He also reminded the Board of the
Foundation’s Mission Statement that outlines the types of programs and projects the Foundation supports (see earlier
comments). In addition to the contributions mentioned earlier, he noted that the Foundation also awarded a grant to the Wade
James Theater to redo their heating system.
Chair Lovell pointed out that because Mrs. Miller passed away less than two years ago, the Foundation has not had an
opportunity to establish a lengthy track record. He referred to Nomination 23, which suggests the name “Hazel Miller
Courtyard at Old Milltown.” The submitter stated that, not only would this name honor a citizen who set up a generous
foundation to benefit Edmonds, it would also recognize the site’s history so it is not lost to future generations.
Vice Chair Reed recalled that the letter from the Foundation indicated they would like to have an opportunity to review and
approve the design of the park sign. He asked if the Foundation Board has discussed what they would like to see on the sign.
Mr. Bennett answered that the Foundation does not intend to deter from the City’s sign standards, but they would like an
opportunity to review the sign design and location because it is intended to be a legacy for Mrs. Miller.
Vice Chair Reed asked if the Foundation would be amenable to naming the park “Hazel Miller Plaza at Old Milltown.”.
Perhaps the park sign could also recognize those who contributed to the park significantly. Mr. Bennett emphasized that the
Foundation is asking that the park be named Hazel Miller Plaza, and they do not believe it would be appropriate to add other
names to the sign. Recognition of other individuals could be provided on a separate plaque, if desired.
Board Member Clarke pointed out that most other parks that are named after individuals on the national, state and local level
use just the last name of the individual. This precedent is true in the City of Edmonds, as well. He noted that Hickman Park
Packet Page 202 of 218
DRAFT
Planning Board Minutes
December 14, 2011 Page 7
is named after Dr. Robert O. Hickman, and there are numerous signs throughout the park that provide information about Dr.
Hickman and his contribution to the community. He recalled that when the park was named, he specifically recommended
that just Dr. Hickman’s last name should be used to be consistent with other parks in Edmonds. He expressed his belief that
most people would not want their name to become a controversy when they are trying to do something good. He expressed
concern that naming the park “Hazel Miller Plaza” could set precedence for future situations. Mr. Bennett pointed out there is
nothing in the Park Naming Policy that requires the City to use just the last name of an individual. He said that if the Board
recommends “Miller Plaza” to the City Council they should do so with the understanding that the Foundation would likely
withdraw their grant offer. Again, he reminded the Board that the grant is based on the Foundation’s letter and the application
that was submitted by the City. He emphasized that the Foundation did not approach the City first; the City requested the
grant funding.
Ms. Hite confirmed that after discussions in July and August, the City Council allocated $70,000 for park construction, with
the caveat that staff would apply for grant funding. As a result, staff submitted several grant applications, including one to the
Hazel Miller Foundation. Vice Chair Reed asked if the grant application stated that the City would name the park “Hazel
Miller Plaza.” Ms. Hite explained that the grant request was two-tiered. One request was for a lesser amount to support the
project, and another was for over 50% of the construction costs, with the caveat that the City would go through the naming
process to name the park “Hazel Miller Plaza.” Vice Chair Reed said he is not opposed to including Mrs. Miller’s first name
as part of the park name.
Board Member Johnson summarized that the Foundation’s letter makes it clear that their donation is contingent upon the park
being named “Hazel Miller Plaza.” She said she referred to the dictionary for definitions of “plaza” and “courtyard.” A plaza
is typically located in the center of town and is surrounded by shops. Historically, a courtyard was the center of the castle, but
in modern times it is considered a three-sided area, which is consistent with the subject park area. She asked why the
Foundation is set on using the word “plaza,” rather than a more unique name. There is already a Library Plaza and a Century
Plaza in downtown Edmonds. Mr. Bennett did not provide a response.
Board Member Clarke pointed out that the Park Naming Policy states that the Board should approach parking naming with
caution and deliberation, yet this is the first time the Board has heard the fact that they only have one option in relation to the
generous contribution from the Hazel Miller Foundation. Mr. Bennett pointed out that the Foundation’s letter made this
stipulation very clear. Board Member Clarke agreed that the letter indicates the Foundation’s desire that the park be named
“Hazel Miller Plaza,” but it does not specifically state that this must be the name of the park or the Foundation would
withdraw their grant offer. Mr. Bennett specifically referenced to the following statements from the Foundation’s letter:
• “We are excited at the prospect of having this park named the “Hazel Miller Plaza,” and have allocated $88,000
should this name be chosen.”
• “Before we fully confirm this grant, it is necessary that the City Council approves the name “Hazel Miller Plaza” for
this project.”
Vice Chair Reed said his interpretation of the letter is that the name “Hazel Miller Plaza” must be approved by the City
Council before the grant funding would be confirmed. Board Member Clarke said the letter does not specifically state that the
Foundation would not consider any other name. Vice Chair Reed emphasized that the Foundation Board has decided that the
name must be “Hazel Miller Plaza” or the grant will not be funded. The Foundation Board’s next meeting is not until
February, and staff has indicated the project will be completed by the end of January.
Chair Lovell asked if the City Council is aware of the ramifications of the letter. Ms. Hite answered that the City Council is
aware that the grant funding is contingent upon the Foundation’s recommended park name. She agreed to make it clear to the
City Council that the Hazel Miller Foundation Board has decided there is no flexibility in the park name if the City wants to
obtain the grant funding.
Board Member Tibbott pointed out that although the Foundation has offered a grant that is contingent upon a certain name,
the City should not circumvent the process outlined in the Park Naming Policy. They should consider all of the nominations
that were submitted. The Board should not feel obligated to forward a recommendation that the park be named as per the
Foundation’s request.

Polly Peterson, Edmonds, said she did not find out about the park naming contest until she walked by the park area on the
deadline day. She said she worked at Old Milltown in the 1970s and 1980s. She is familiar with the park area, which was a
source of pleasure for many people as a central gathering place. She noted that the majority of the nominations contained
some form of Mrs. Miller’s name. She questioned whether the public was adequately notified of the opportunity to submit
nominations, or if the majority of the nominations came from people who are familiar with the Foundation’s grant offer. She
cautioned against naming the park based solely on the $88,000 promised by the Foundation. The Foundation can find other
things to do with their money. She noted that the Foundation’s website indicates that “Hazel Miller Plaza” has already been
approved as the name for the park. She questioned the need for nominations if the name had already been decided.
Board Member Johnson asked if Ms. Peterson nominated a potential park name. Ms. Peterson answered that she
recommended the name Rachel Setchfield Park. She recalled that Ms. Setchfield spent a lot time in the area and gave so
much pleasure to people while she worked at Old Milltown. She said she also thought about nominating the Floretum Garden
Club as a potential name for the park. She said she grew up in Edmonds and the ladies in the Garden Club spent hours trying
to beautify the community as volunteers. Board Member Johnson referred to an article she obtained about Ms. Setchfield,
which describes how she contributed to the maintenance of the gardens.
Board Member Johnson thanked Ms. Peterson for sharing her thoughts. She reminded the public that the Planning Board is
required to conduct an open public hearing before forwarding a recommendation to the City Council. It is important that
everyone has an opportunity to contribute and be considered.
Board Member Clarke referred to an email the Board received, which contained an article about Rachel Setchfield from THE
ENTERPRISE dated March 22, 1978. He said the Board also received an email from Betty Larman, which provided
additional background on the Floretum Garden Club’s activity and contribution. Her email also outlines her conversations
with the City’s former Parks, Recreation and Cultural Services Director, Brian McIntosh, about recognizing the contributions
of the Garden Club. He said it appears the City plans to provide a plaque to honor their previous commitment to recognize
the contributions of Garden Club members. Ms. Hite advised that the Garden Club also contributed $2,000 to purchase a
bench in memory of Rachel Setchfield.
Board Member Clarke read Board Member Stewart’s written comment into the record as follows:
“When considering the criteria for park naming, I would like to draw attention to Items A and E in the Park Naming Policy.
A refers to the geographic location, and E refers to an individual or organization that contributed significantly to the
acquisition or development of the facility. I wanted to note Nomination 23: Hazel Miller Courtyard at Old Milltown. This
nomination takes care of both A and E. So does Nomination 39: the Old Milltown Hazel Miller Plaza. In looking up the
definition, plaza is described as a public square, usually paved between a building and a street. A courtyard is open space
surrounded by walls or buildings. It sounds to me like “plaza” is a better term to use here. I do think it’s important to
recognize the historical significance of the place along with the donor.”
Board Member Tibbott said he feels it is important to recognize and perhaps save some of the historical significance of the
site for future generations. Ms. Hite noted that historic elements would be incorporated into the park design, and there is a lot
of research going back to when the site was owned by the Yost family and operated as a garage. Board Member Johnson said
she has a picture of the site just prior to when it was developed. The space between the road and the building used to be a
driveway to an existing filling station.
Board Member Tibbott suggested that perhaps the name “Old Milltown” does not accurately depict the history of the site. It
might be more accurate to call it the “old repair station or garage.” Board Member Johnson suggested it is a matter of
perception. For example, Betty Larman has commented that Old Milltown is significant because it was developed in the
1970’s and designed by a noted architect. In addition, most people in the City know where Old Milltown is located, but they
may not know that the site was previously the home of Yost Garage.
Board Member Clarke referred to an email the Board received from Jean Richards expressing opposition to naming the park
in honor of a person, either past or present. Board Member Johnson also noted an email the Board received from Rich
Packet Page 204 of 218
DRAFT
Planning Board Minutes
December 14, 2011 Page 9
Senderoff dated December 14th asking that the Board consider the name “Hazel Miller Floretum Plaza” and an email from
Betty Larman dated November 14th recounting the history of the site, the significant involvement of the Floretum Garden
Club, and some of the fund raising facts associated with the property acquisition.
Board Member Clarke pointed out that the last paragraph in the Park Naming Policy states that “parks and facilities named
after individuals shall not be changed unless it is found that because of the individual’s character, the continued use of the
name would not be in the best interest of the community.” He said that, in his opinion, this paragraph would not be applicable
to the Hazel Miller, so the name would stay the same in perpetuity.
Board Member Tibbott asked what other names the Board could consider besides “Hazel Miller Plaza.” Board Member
Johnson answered that the Board should consider all of the nominations that were submitted prior to the deadline. She said
that when staff presents the Board’s recommendation to the City Council, they will likely be asked about the process. She
questioned the process of inviting the public to participate, knowing there is an offer on the table for a specific name. She
questioned how the Board could reconcile the process to ensure it is transparent. Ms. Hite said the City tried to make the
Hazel Miller Foundation’s offer clear in the information that was published regarding the park naming process. Chair Lovell
added that an advertisement was placed in the local news media inviting the public to nominate potential names and
participate in the public hearing. Ms. Hite said a press release was also issued by City staff on October 26th to inform the
public that the Foundation has requested the name “Hazel Miller Plaza.”
Board Member Clarke commented that while the policy also calls for a parking naming contest, there is actually no contest
and no prizes are awarded. He suggested they eliminate the word “contest” to make the process more clear.
Board Member Johnson said the Board has received numerous emails and reports regarding the issue and has not had an
opportunity to thoroughly review each one. She particularly referred to an October 21, 2010 submittal by the Floretum
Garden Club, which was part of another opportunity for grant funding through the Washington State Federation of Garden
Clubs. It recommends the name “Old Milltown Garden.” She said it is important that Board Members have an opportunity to
review all available information before making a recommendation to the City Council. She commented that the Board
Members owe it to themselves to be fully informed so they can provide background information and history to support their
recommendation. It is also important that all available information is provided to the City Council as part of the public
record.
In answer to Vice Chair Reed, Ms. Hite clarified that the City Council is not required to conduct a public hearing before
making a final decision. This responsibility is given to the Planning Board. However, the City Council can choose to have a
public hearing if they find it appropriate.
Vice Chair Reed suggested the Board forward a recommendation to the City Council that is consistent with the funding
request from the Hazel Miller Foundation, and then supplement their recommendation with alternative names and suggestions
for obtaining funding if they do not accept the Foundation’s offer. They could also recommend that the park include visible
recognition of others who have made significant contributions to the park’s existence.
Board Member Johnson said she would support any name that includes “Hazel Miller.” She said she would not be opposed to
using Mrs. Miller’s full name if that is the desire of the Foundation. Board Member Tibbott, on the other hand, said he
struggles with using the full name of a citizen who is not widely known throughout the community. At this point, the
Foundation’s work is just emerging, and he would prefer to see a track record for the types of contributions they have made
and will make in the community before naming a park after Mrs. Miller in perpetuity. Once this track record has been
established and the mission of the Foundation is better understood, he would be more in favor of the Foundation’s request to
name a park after Mrs. Miller.
Board Member Johnson said she is aware of the many good works performed by the Foundation to date, and they will
continue to have a significant amount of money to invest in South Snohomish County, particularly Edmonds. One reason for
the Foundation’s request to name the park “Hazel Miller Plaza” is to give recognition to the contributions the foundation will
make in the future. Board Member Tibbott said he understands the Foundation’s intent, and if a track record had already been
established, it would be easier for him to support the proposed name. He said he would prefer the park name to reflect the
Packet Page 205 of 218
DRAFT
Planning Board Minutes
December 14, 2011 Page 10
history of the site and the significance of its location. If the City chooses not to name the park “Hazel Miller Plaza” as
requested by the Foundation, perhaps there will be other opportunities in the future for the City to work with the Foundation.
Board Member Clarke referred to Nomination 11, which recommends the name “Rick Steves Park” because of Mr. Steve’s
profound contribution to the community. He noted that Mr. Steves recently announced his long-term commitment to
financially contribute to the Edmonds Center for the Arts. He draws numerous people to the community to attend his events,
and he has made it well known that he lives in and appreciates Edmonds. He suggested it would be appropriate to provide
some type of recognition for Mr. Steves at the Edmonds Center for the Arts.
Board Member Clarke also referred to Nomination 42, which recommends the name “John Byron Beck Municipal Park.”
The nomination indicates that Mr. Beck was a long-standing member of the community, serving as a Washington State
Legislator. He was a local businessman and past president of the Chamber of Commerce. He was also one of the founders of
the Bank of Edmonds.
While the Foundation’s gift to the community would be significant, Board Member Clarke suggested the Board has an
obligation to consider all the submitted nominations. He said he has lived in Edmonds all his life. While things have
changed, some things, such as Old Milltown, have remained constant. Although it has no relationship to a mill, it has become
a historic site that is recognized by the citizens of Edmonds. If the park were named “Hazel Miller Plaza at Old Milltown,”
everyone in the City would know exactly where it is located. Adding Old Milltown to the name would be positive and would
not take away from the name of Hazel Miller.
Chair Lovell recommended the Board continue their discussion to a future meeting so they could move on with the remainder
of their agenda. This would allow the Board Members to review the additional information and obtain input from the
Foundation about what other names they might be willing to consider.
BOARD MEMBER REED MOVED THAT THE BOARD CONTINUE THE PUBLIC HEARING TO JANUARY 11,
2012 FOR ADDITIONAL PUBLIC TESTIMONY AND CONTINUED BOARD DELIBERATION. BOARD
MEMBER TIBBOTT SECONDED THE MOTION. THE MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY.
THE BOARD RECESSED THE MEETING AT 9:25 FOR A SHORT BREAK. THE MEETING WAS RECONVENED AT
9:34 P.M.
CITY OF EDMONDS SHORELINE MASTER PROGRAM UPDATE
Mr. Lien advised that Bob McChesney, Port of Edmonds Executive Director, was present to share the Port’s plans for their
Harbor Square Master Plan and to make sure it is consistent with the City’s Shoreline Master Program (SMP) update. He
explained that the Port’s Harbor Square Master Plan has progressed to the point where they might be able to slow the SMP
update process until the Port has submitted their application for a Comprehensive Plan amendment to incorporate their new
master plan.
Mr. McChesney recalled that he has spoken to the Board on previous occasions regarding the Port’s Harbor Square
Redevelopment Master Plan process. He emphasized that no preferred alternative has been identified at this point. The plans
are still at the conceptual level. A feasibility study (Phase 1) was done in 2009 and was followed by a public outreach
program (Phase 2) that was completed in June 2011 with the help of a community steering committee. A draft report has been
prepared and will be circulated to the public in January.
Mr. McChesney reported that the Port is working closely with the City to coordinate their process with the SMP update. He
referred to a letter the Port received from the Department of Ecology (DOE) that endorses the Port’s process. In addition, the
Port has been working with Friends of the Edmonds Marsh to address concerns related to the marsh. From the Port’s point of
view, they need to finalize their public outreach phase by circulating the report to every residential address in Edmonds and
Woodway. The next step is for the Port to engage in a State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA) review process that will
become the enabling document for the Port Commission to adopt the concepts into the Port’s Master Plan. They expect these
steps to occur during the first quarter of 2012, which will enable the Port to present a Comprehensive Plan amendment request
Packet Page 206 of 218
DRAFT
Planning Board Minutes
December 14, 2011 Page 11
to the City for consideration by the Planning Board and City Council. Once the master redevelopment plan has been adopted
into the City’s Comprehensive Plan, the Port can engage in discussions having to do with a future development agreement that
addresses issues such as traffic, design, site configuration, etc. Mr. McChesney summarized that the Port believes it is time to
move forward with the master plan. City and Port staff have worked together to ensure that the Harbor Square
Redevelopment Plan and the SMP move forward in sync.
Board Member Johnson asked Mr. McChesney to clarify the Port’s plans for disseminating the report. Mr. McChesney
answered that the Port Commission believes it is absolutely vital to send the report to all residential addresses in Edmonds
and Woodway. They will be asking the City for approval, so everyone in the City should have an opportunity to understand
what the Port is proposing. Board Member Reed asked if the public would have an opportunity to comment on the report.
Mr. McChesney replied that there will be opportunities for additional public comment during the 30-day comment period for
SEPA, and he anticipates public hearings would also be conducted by both the Planning Board and the City Council before
the Comprehensive Plan amendment is adopted.
Chair Lovell asked Mr. McChesney to describe the Port’s anticipated timeline for completing the process. Mr. McChesney
said the Port wants to be ready to submit a Comprehensive Plan amendment proposal to the Planning Board and City Council
during the second quarter of 2012. This will allow them three months at the beginning of 2012 to complete the SEPA review
and for the Port Commission to approve the Harbor Square Redevelopment Plan as part of their overall Master Plan.
Board Member Johnson reminded Mr. McChesney that the City will embark on a Strategic Planning process in January 2012.
She asked how the Port would coordinate their work with the City’s Strategic Plan work. Mr. McChesney said the Port will
attempt to coordinate their Harbor Square Redevelopment Plan process with the City’s Strategic Plan process. He said he
believes the Harbor Square Redevelopment Master Plan process will be complimentary and illustrative of a good planning
process in general. In fact, it could become a module or part of the Strategic Plan, if only by reference. He said the Port has
also tried to follow some contemporary planning guidance to incorporate form-based zoning as part of their master plan
concept. He summarized that although the Port’s plan might move slightly ahead of the Strategic Plan, they will not conflict
with each other and will, in fact, be very complimentary.
Chair Lovell said the Economic Development Commission has suggested that perhaps the City would look to the Port to
develop a similar study relative to the remainder of the waterfront, using the same type of process that was used for Five
Corners and Westgate. The Strategic Plan process has been restructured so the timing will be fairly consistent with the Port’s
time frame for completing their Master Plan. He explained that not only would the Strategic Plan identify a vision for the
City, it would also identify both short and long-term goals to implement the vision. These goals will include the marsh,
drainage problems on Dayton Street, access to the waterfront over the railroad tracks, etc. While it would be optimal to work
concurrently on the SMP and the Strategic Plan to ensure the two documents are consistent, the State has identified a deadline
for completing the SMP update. Mr. Lien advised that the SMP update must be completed in 2012. He reminded the Board
of their previous discussion about bumping back the SMP update schedule a few months. They originally anticipated the first
public hearing before the Planning Board on March 14th, but perhaps it would be appropriate to postpone the public hearing
until after the Port has submitted their Comprehensive Plan amendment in May or June.
Chair Lovell reminded the Board that at their last meeting, they reviewed a memorandum from staff that outlined the issues
for which they are seeking additional direction from the Board. One issue was related to the proposed new Urban Mixed Use
III designation. The Board agreed it would be appropriate to continue their discussion to a future meeting to seek additional
input from the Port of Edmonds about how the new designation would impact their proposed Harbor Square Redevelopment
Master Plan. They were particularly interested in feedback about how the proposed parking setback requirements. Because
of the lateness of the hour, he suggested the Board continue their discussion to the January 25th meeting. He suggested the
public hearing be postponed until May or June, after the Port has submitted their master plan proposal.
Board Member Johnson asked if the Port is going to complete the SEPA review before distributing the report. Mr.
McChesney answered that the two activities would occur simultaneously. He further advised that the SEPA review would be
completed before the Port’s Comprehensive Plan amendment proposal is submitted to the Planning Board for review. The
Port Commission will approve the master plan prior to submitting the document to the City, as well.

Vice Chair Reed recalled that there has been some discussion about liquefaction issues at the Antique Mall site, and this could
impact what can and cannot be developed. It could also impact the costs associated with redevelopment. He suggested that
this problem might also be applicable to the Harbor Square site. He cautioned against creating grand plans that involve three
to five-story structures that may not be feasible due to existing soil conditions. These issues must be resolved prior to
redevelopment, and he encouraged the Port to make sure the issue is considered as part of their master plan discussion.
Chair Lovell agreed it could be an engineering challenge to develop these two sites, but it could be done with pilings, etc. He
referred to the soils study that was completed for the Senior Center site, which talks about liquefaction. It indicates that the
risk is very slight. He suggested that the water table would be the largest challenge, particularly when considering below-
grade construction. Mr. McChesney agreed these issues need to be thoroughly reviewed, but he cautioned that the Port is still
in the conceptual stage. They are proceeding with the assumption that because there are buildings on the site now, there is
reason to believe they will be able to build as needed. However, he acknowledged that the Port will need to do a thorough
evaluation at some point in the future.
Board Member Johnson asked if financial feasibility would be part of the SEPA review. Mr. McChesney answered that it
would not be a direct part of the review. However, there are realities and constraints that must be considered. The Port is
trying to abide by the imperative that the master plan must be economically feasible based on the reasonable assumptions that
were presented to the Port Commission.
Board Member Johnson acknowledged that given enough money, a developer could resolve most engineering challenges to
enable development to occur almost anywhere. However, because of water table and liquefaction issues, she felt it would be
appropriate for the Board to conduct additional analysis. Mr. McChesney said the Port will be unable to address these issues
until the requirements have been established. He recalled that in past discussions with the Board, he has mentioned that the
Port’s approach to redevelopment at Harbor Square is different than that of a private sector developer. A private sector
developer would likely attempt to optimize the economic opportunity and massing on the parcel. The Port’s goal is to
determine the minimum amount of development that must occur on the site to be economically feasible. The Port’s feasibility
study identifies the constraints, assumptions and realities. However, the Port does not know in real time when redevelopment
will occur and market factors will also determine what is economically feasible. He said the Port does not anticipate
redeveloping the site, itself. Their goal is to perfect a concept and achieve the necessary entitlements so they can engage the
private sector to do the actual development. The Port has limited resources but a fair amount of expertise in master planning.
The Commission does not have an appetite for investing in building construction, but they think it is appropriate for the Port
to lead the process to obtain the necessary entitlements that will express what is in the best interest of the community.
Board Member Clarke expressed his professional opinion that because the Port does not have an adequate analysis to identify
existing soil conditions and the water table, the financial feasibility study is misleading. The study merely represents
preliminary cost numbers that do not take into consideration the soil on the site. He expressed his belief that these issues must
be clearly defined, quantified and addressed as part of the feasibility study. Mr. McChesney explained that the feasibility
study is intended to be a bulk analysis that identifies how much mass is needed on the parcel to be economically feasible.
While Board Member Clarke’s points are well taken, the Port’s thought was that this level of analysis would not be necessary
for what they are trying to achieve in this phase of the process. The Port would address the more detailed, site-specific
constraints and issues as part of the next phase of the project. Board Member Clarke commented that this approach would be
appropriate for almost any site in the City, with the exception of those along the waterfront because of known issues related to
the water table and liquefaction. He said the reality is that an architect cannot design a building unless he/she knows what the
soils are on the site. This information is critical to an overall plan.
Board Member Johnson pointed out that the sewer treatment plant was constructed after Harbor Square was developed. She
suggested the Port obtain copies of the studies that were done for that site, since the soil conditions would probably closely
resemble those at Harbor Square.
Mr. McChesney summarized that the Board provided some good comments. The Port wants to learn and understand in
advance what the Board’s concerns will be, and they will try to answer them to the extent possible. He said it did not occur to
the Port that this high level of detail would be an important part of the Comprehensive Plan amendment. Board Member
Johnson noted that the marsh and its environment will be important elements of the Comprehensive Plan amendment. She
Packet Page 208 of 218
DRAFT
Planning Board Minutes
December 14, 2011 Page 13
recalled that at their last discussion, the Board was not quite sure about the appropriate distance that should be required from
the edge of the marsh and potential buildings and parking areas. The Board was interested to learn how different setback
standards would compliment or interfere with the Port’s plans. Based on discussions with staff, Mr. McChesney said he
believes the Port’s master plan is tracking well with the City’s SMP update. The Port has also been working with Friends of
the Edmonds Marsh and the DOE. It appears as though the buffers and setbacks contemplated would be perfectly adequate
and even better than what might be expected.
Mr. McChesney explained that redevelopment of Harbor Square and restoration of the marsh are neither mutually exclusive
nor incompatible. In fact, the two depend on each other. Redevelopment of Harbor Square creates opportunities for restoring
the marsh, including improvements to stormwater, enhanced buffers, and daylighting Willow Creek. All of these projects
work together. It is important to find the best way to redevelop Harbor Square to the benefit of the community, including
marsh restoration.
Board Member Johnson said the Board has expressed an interest in learning how the marsh would be impacted if Willow
Creek were delighted or the flood gate were left open. However, this data is apparently not available. Mr. McChesney said
there are grant funding opportunities to complete a baseline conditions survey and explore future opportunities in more detail.
Mr. Lien added that policies were added to the SMP to prioritize studies related to the marsh. In addition, the City has
received grant funding to study the marsh. Board Member Johnson asked how restoration of the marsh would impact the 200-
foot area of the shoreline jurisdiction. Mr. Lien referred to Revised Code of Washington 90.58.580, which says that if a
restoration project alters the ordinary high water mark or shoreline location, the new property that is now within the shoreline
jurisdiction can get relief from the regulations. It is important that people are not discouraged from doing restoration projects.
Board Member Clarke asked if the SMP includes setback requirements related to the railroad right-of-way for pedestrian
activity and building improvements. He suggested it might be appropriate to require a setback to account for situations such
as train derailment. Mr. Lien answered that the State does not require setbacks from the railroad right-of-way, and the issue is
not addressed in the City’s draft SMP. He noted that the majority of the railroad is located outside of the shoreline
jurisdiction. Chair Lovell suggested this is a railroad safety issue rather than a shoreline issue. He expressed his belief that
requiring buffers for potential accidents along the railroad rights-of-ways would not be the highest and best use of land.
Board Member Clarke pointed out that a railroad disaster would not only impact the railroad right-of-way but adjacent private
property, as well.
Board Member Johnson asked if the City knows the extent of the restoration project at this time. Mr. Lien answered that the
City would not know the extent of the restoration until a project proposal comes forward. Board Member Johnson asked if
this would be part of the Port’s Harbor Square Redevelopment Master Plan proposal. Mr. McChesney answered that it would
not because a project has not been defined yet, and they do not know enough about what the final outcome should be. He
emphasized that the Port is committed to participating in the process as much as possible.
Keeley O’Connell, Friends of the Edmonds Marsh, explained that they do not know what the extent of the restoration will
be at this time. People for Puget Sound was just awarded a grant from the Salmon Recovery Funding Board through Water
Resource Inventory Area (WRIA) 8 that will initiate a feasibility study. She explained that because of constrained funding
situations, there are significant restrictions on what the money can be used for. It can be used to define the area that will
become salt marsh and what the average tidal cycle will be and how it relates to juvenile Chinook foraging success. If it can
be shown there will be juvenile Chinook foraging over a certain amount of time, they will be allowed to continue to accept
funding requests to carry the project forward into design, permitting, construction and monitoring post construction. They
have ideas for what they think needs to happen and what the constraints are. They also know where they have opportunities to
change the constraints and where they cannot significantly change the constraints. For example, they understand that they
cannot change the Harbor Square site back into a marsh.
Ms. O’Connell explained that Friends of the Edmonds Marsh must work closely with the City staff to address issues related to
stormwater coming into the system. However, the current grant funding cannot be used for this purpose. It will be used to
specifically determine how much water would come in on average if they were to open the creek channel directly to Puget
Sound and how much of the salt water marsh would be converted to fresh water marsh. They expect that the tidal affects
Packet Page 209 of 218
DRAFT
Planning Board Minutes
December 14, 2011 Page 14
would expand. She explained that the ordinary high water mark on the north side of the marsh that abuts Harbor Square and
is right up to the levy would not change. Addressing the flooding issues will be part of future studies.
Board Member Johnson summarized that the anticipated study will focus on how opening the creek channel will impact
salinity, high water marks, and tides related to juvenile Chinook foraging. She asked for more information about how the
creek channel would be opened. Ms. O’Connell answered that the main constraint is the long narrow pipe that limits the
amount of water that can get into the system on a daily basis. In addition, there is a tide gate that is only open for a portion of
the year. It is closed during the winter months so that only fresh water enters the marsh. An ideal situation would be a
channel connection that takes the water out of the pipe and into the natural stream bank. They expect to see much more salt
water coming into the marsh on a daily basis, but the need for a tide gate is still unknown. It may be that the only way to
address flooding is to have a gate system, but it must be a smart gate that would not have to be locked shut for several months
a year.
Board Member Johnson asked Ms. O’Connell to clarify her earlier comment about the levy on the north side of the marsh
along the Harbor Square property. Ms. O’Connell explained that while they expect more water in the marsh, they do not
expect to remove portions of developed land and covert it back to marsh. There are some constraints that can be addressed
such as the pipe and the lack of tide water getting into the marsh. However, the reality is that Harbor Square is built out and
they are not trying to convert it back to marsh. Instead, they need to figure out how to make redevelopment happen so that it
is not harmful and actually enhances the marsh.
Board Member Johnson asked the time frame for the study. Ms. O’Connell answered that the study will take between 12 and
18 months to complete. There are two proposals currently on the table to bring additional funding from the City to support
the grant funding received from the Salmon Recovery Funding Board so that stormwater issues can be addressed. These
studies could be done simultaneously.
Board Member Johnson said it is important to clearly understand the constraints of the marsh and how it fits into the timing of
the SMP. However, she observed that the study information will not be available before the City is required to adopt their
updated SMP.
Ms. O’Connell clarified that the marsh tops wherever there is a levy or dyke. Any water coming out of the marsh going over
the dyke is considered flooding, which is a public issue. Friends of the Edmonds Marsh has an interest in restoring what
remains of the marsh to the best of their ability, working with the current constraints of the built out urban environment. They
expect to see changes in the future in the types of vegetation and wildlife present at the marsh, but they would not expect
changes in the integrity of the dyke system.

PARK NAMING CONTEST ENTRIES – Old Milltown Site
1. 10/24/11 Hazel Miller Plaza The foundation is dedicated to Edmonds citizens by supporting programs and projects for the public’s benefit. The foundation
has supported numerous organizations and this would be a good way to say thank you.
2. 10/24/11 Hazel Miller Humanitarian Park It captures the spirit of all the efforts that Hazel Miller wished for her philanthropic efforts and also the feelings of those living
in the wonderful Edmonds community. It has a very positive meaning and generates a great feeling.
3. 10/25/11 Hazel Miller Town Park I think a nice name would be Hazel Miller Town Park. It keeps the Old Mill Town in the name and incorporates Hazel Miller
into the new name.
4. 10/25/11 Hazel Miller Boardwalk Park It honors Hazel Miller and recognizes that there was/is a boardwalk in the former Old Milltown. The boardwalk is charming!
5. 10/26/11 Hazel on 5th I suggest it because it sounds nice to go relax at Hazel on 5th!
6. 10/26/11 Edmonds Ferry Park It’s a play on words; instead of a tiny park for fairies, it’s a ferry park. Post a sign where drivers/passengers get off the ferries.
It would encourage them to go into Edmonds instead of by-passing the town and get more sales for merchants. It would be
nice if there were something more for kids to play with like a boat wheel off the ferries. There should be a picture of an
Edmonds Ferry somewhere.
7. 10/31/11 Millertown Square or Hazel Miller
Town Square
It keeps Old Milltown in mind and it incorporates Hazel Miller’s name. Plus a town square is a gathering place for a
community.
8. 11/1/11 Milltown Rising Park – With Thanks
to Hazel Miller
It is located near Old Milltown, that we all hope will be reborn with new life and economic activity. Whether you need to use
the word “Foundation” after her name is up to you, but I thought using her name would be contingent on getting an $88,000
contribution.
9. 11/3/11 Sawmill Park The reason for Sawmill Park is that Old Milltown was named after all the saw mills in our community of Edmonds.
10. 11/4/11 Old Milltown Park It’s an historical site in the heart of Edmonds.
11. 11/4/111 Rick Steves Park Rick Steves contributions to our community are profound. It’s time we should honor him!!
12. 11/4/11 Our Town Because it is our town
13. 11/4/11 Central Park Central Park in NYC is one of the grandest in the world. This new park is a wonderful idea and it is also in a central area of
Edmonds.
14. 11/4/11 Mill Town Park It is what everyone already calls it. Edmonds is an Old Mill Town.
15. 11/4/11 Courtyard at Milltown That’s where it is!!!
16. 11/4/11 (The) Courtyard at Milltown It sounds classy and still contains “Milltown” so people would know what/where it is.
17. 11/4/11 Edmonds Millfront Park In keeping with Edmonds history as a milltown.
18. 11/4/11 Edmonds Central Park The word “central” sounds very big such as New York Central Park. This is very small park located in central area of
Edmonds. Very cute and humorous name. Easy to remember. We should be very proud of this small Edmonds Central
Park!
19. 11/5/11 Hazelwood Plaza I am so happy that the little park has been maintained for the city and will be restored to a newer and better design for us
Edmondites to enjoy. A “plaza” according to Webster is an open-air public area located near walkways and shopping. So I
suggest the name Hazelwood Plaza (and plant some hazel shrubs there). In any case, having watched that corner change
from pre Ward Phillips development into Old Milltown and to its current state, I look forward to seeing it come to fruition.
Thanks to Hazel Miller for her generosity, and to you for considering this name.
20. 11/7/11 Silver Lining Park People move to Edmonds and grow old here – we have a wonderful “silver haired” crowd that roams the DT area. They are
an important part of our community, hence, the Silver Lining.
21. 11/8/11 Hazel Miller Park After reading in the Edmonds Beacon paper about Hazel Miller and the generous donation from her foundation…I think it
would be wonderful to name our new park (across the street from Tully’s)…Hazel Miller Park.
22. 11/8/11 Grace The biggest hearted citizen of Edmonds (born and raised) who is loved by all who meet her. Grace by the Sea, Grace Bickel.
She has the spirit of love in her. We are only here by God’s Grace.
23. 11/10/11 Hazel Miller Courtyard at Old
Milltown
It’s good to honor a citizen who set up a generous foundation to benefit Edmonds. But it’s also important to acknowledge the
site’s history so it is not lost to future generations.

30. 11/15/11 Hazel Miller Plaza So we can save money.

32. 11/15/11 Hazel Miller Plaza To save $88,000
33. 11/15/11 Hazel Miller Plaza To save the City $88,000!
34. 11/15/11 Hazel Miller Plaza To honor this outstanding person and fund a lovely plaza without burdening taxpayers.
35. 11/15/11 Hazel Miller Plaza Funding
36. 11/15/11 Hazel Miller Plaza Opportunity for funding the development of the park.
37. 11/17/11 Milltown Courtyard Sounds good; is catchy and will quickly feel natural; is historically accurate; describes the place precisely – it is a community
courtyard located in historical Milltown location.
38. 11/17/11 Park Side This little park is next to our sidewalk and will attract the daily walkers like myself, or the not so daily walkers, by giving them a
chance to rest and visit with other locals.
39. 11/18/11 The Old Milltown
HAZEL MILLER PLAZA
This would incorporate the required name for the Hazel Miller Grant, but also give the Edmonds community a quick reference
as to the location.
40. 11/18/11 Another Waste of Taxpayer Dollars This name should be chosen because the city council is wasting taxpayer dollars on another park that is not needed. The city
needs money to repair the streets, repair the water main and most of all pay city employees for a full 40 hour week and not
make them take a forced day off with no pay. The city council should be ashamed of themselves for even considering the
purchase of this piece of property. To add insult to injury they then spend additional money to "improve it" when it was
perfectly fine the way it was.
41. 11/18/11 Hazel Miller Old Milltown Courtyard This would reflect both the generous contribution of the Foundation, but also acknowledge the many years of hard work by the
City, Floretum Garden Club, and other community groups in bringing the park to reality, while recognizing its history.
42. 11/21/11 John Byron Beck Municipal Park I would like to nominate the name of the new park after an old friend who left us too early and contributed selflessly to our
community and state.
John loved Edmonds and its people; he looked forward to each day and received great joy in making new friends. In addition
to having his own business in Edmonds he served the community as president of the Edmonds Chamber of Commerce, he
was a board member of Catholic Community Services of Snohomish County, and of Edmonds-South County Historical
Museum, and he was also one of the founders of the Bank of Edmonds, now Bank of Washington.
In 1986, he was elected to the Washington State Legislature and served three terms representing our community. His
interests included improving the quality of education, helping children and seniors and assisting small-business owners. Both
his business and the bank he helped start are adjacent to the new park.
Born in Bellingham, he came to Seattle as a boy and graduated from Blanchet High School. He earned a bachelor's degree in
political science and economics at Seattle University. After serving in the Army, he worked as a diplomatic courier and
foreign-service officer for the U.S. State Department in embassies in Zaire, Oman and Germany. He returned to Edmonds in
1978 to buy Beck's Funeral Home and Restlawn Memorial Park from his father and contributed for over two decades until his
untimely death at the age of 53 on April 27, 1997.
Edmonds has an opportunity to use the naming of the new park to remember an old friend to many, one who gave countless
time and effort to his community and served as an inspiration to future generations that a local leader can make a difference.

43. 11/21/11 Rachel Setchfield Park Rachel loving cared for the Milltown garden while I worked at Milltown in the 1970s and 1980s. The “meadow” of Forget-Me-
Nots and various plants and trees which she nurtured gave quiet respite and pleasure to passersby, customers and
employees alike. The garden was alive with color and the sounds of song birds thanks to her care. I believe she did this on a
volunteer basis though I’m not sure, but people loved the work she did and would always comment on the lovely garden or
how it reminded them of their grandmother’s or aunt’s garden. A g arden (or park) should be a place to restore. I feel Rachel
helped achieve this for many people as they went about their busy days if only for a moment or two.

Discussion regarding transport fees and insurance.
Recommendation from Mayor and Staff
N/A
Previous Council Action
None
Narrative
Many communities across the country have begun to bill Medicaid/Medicare and private insurance
companies the cost of transporting patients via ambulance. Most insurance already factors in this cost
resulting in no added costs to people being transported via ambulance. This has been found to be a
significant financial support for EMS services. This agenda item is for discussion purposes only. No
council action, other than possible referral to committee is expected.
