5. AUDIENCE COMMENTS
Maxine Mitchell, and husband Bill, Edmonds, residents overlooking Civic Park, said they have utilized
the park for many years and they, along with many others in Edmonds, enjoy the views of the ferry, Puget
Sound and the Olympics. They were thrilled when the City obtained Civic Playfield for development and
have actively participated in public meetings and online forums and hoped their input played a part in
shaping the design. Last week they were surprised to learn that the current park landscape design includes
over 50 trees with a mature height of 50 feet or more, many reaching 100 feet which would block or severely
impact their and their neighbors' views. They voiced their concerns to several involved in the process and
met with Deputy Park & Recreation Director Shannon Burley last week who updated them on the park's
design, listened to their concerns and assured she was already making progress with the Tree Board and
others on selecting alternate trees with the goal of selecting appropriate trees with a maximum mature height
of 25 feet whenever possible to minimize impacts on views. Ms. Mitchell emphasized the high value
Edmonds residents place upon their Puget Sound and mountain views. As the final design of Civic Park
gets closer to approval, they want to ensure residents' views are not significantly impacted and that the right
trees are selected for the right place.
Jeff Terry, wife Quyen, Edmonds, residents across from Civic Park, added their family's voices to Ms.
Mitchell's comments. They enjoy living in Edmonds, the beautiful park and the views. He urged the Council
to ensure the right trees at the right height are selected for the park design.
Lisa Green, Edmonds, a resident on Alder Street, added her voice to the tree issue. She supported
responsible tree ownership which includes heights and proper care. She loves trees and the birds in the trees
including the hummingbirds she feeds. She accepted that a copse of trees blocked her view as they were
there before she was, but did not want her views further blocked in the future or to have large roots disturb
her driveway or ruin her foundation or plumbing system. She recalled a recent post on Nextdoor where a
resident paid $11,000 due to a root from a neighbor's tree in their plumbing system. She urged the City to
think about responsible ownership including height, who is responsible for the trees and proper care.
Shaunta Hyde, Edmonds, said she and her family love living in Edmonds; the restaurants, shops, civic Q
engagement and festivals make they feel a part of something special. They do not take for granted that they
live in a beautiful part of the Pacific NW that allows daily access to pristine views of mountains, water and
sunsets. With regard to the proposed landscape plan for the new Civic Park, she asked that the City consider
residents interested in keeping their views because as taxpayers, they pay for that view. She was certain w
there was a middle ground that would allow beautiful landscaping and diversity while continuing to meet
the needs of the existing community.
E
Barbara Chase, Edmonds, a Tree Board member but speaking for herself, expressed appreciation for Ms.
Burley's responsiveness to comments made by people interested in Civic Park. She commended the a
planting of Loebner magnolia as a street tree along 61 in front of the park, noting other trees are being
evaluated and replaced when appropriate. The City along with citizen groups have worked to plant tall
natives in other parks such as City Park, Yost Park, Meadowdale Park and the entrance to Shell Creek via
arbor day plantings. Those same trees were not necessarily desirable at Civic. Another of the Tree Board's
efforts is updating the City's Street Tree list including adding a diversity of choices. The pathetic -looking
cherry trees on Main are the remnants of what was planted over 20 years ago. The intent of the Street Tree
list is having the right tree in the right place. She suggested finding an area (possibly the flat land at 86t1i
and Main Street west of the emergency entrance to Shell Creek) where new street trees could be planted as
a test. She thanked everyone involved in the plans for Civic park, anticipating it will be a great addition to
the City. She summarized you can never please everyone but this plan will please a lot of people.

Mayor Earling commented staff and he have enjoyed putting together the new format for departmental
presentations. The HR Department and the City Clerk's office will not present tonight as they have not
submitted any decision packages. The Directors will present departmental requests tonight, but there will
not be an opportunity for Q&A. In an effort to move the budget process more quickly, it is recommended
that Councilmembers submit questions in writing before the next several meetings. He and staff looked
forward to working together with the Council over the next several weeks to assemble the 2020 budget.

Council President Fraley-Monillas thanked Mr. James for his work, commenting on efforts to make this
budget as transparent as possible for citizens, Council and staff. She explained tonight was an opportunity a
to get the budget in front of the Council and let it sink with regard to the decision packages. She urged
Councilmembers to contact department heads with questions, clarification, conclusions, discussions or
amendments. Discussion, debate and perhaps amendments to the budget will begin at next week's meeting.
She emphasized tonight was not about reaching agreement on the budget; it was an opportunity to
understand the budget and decision packages. The intent was a very transparent and democratic process.

2. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AMENDMENT/HOUSING
Development Services Director Shane Hope reviewed:
• Comprehensive Plans must generally be amended no more than once per year
Edmonds City Council Draft Minutes
November 4, 2019
Page 18
Packet Pg. 21
5.1.a
• Besides CFP update, only proposed 2019 amendment is for 1 item in Housing Element
• Current Implementation Action in Housing Element is: "Develop a strategy by 2019 for increasing
the supply of affordable housing and meeting diverse housing needs"
• In December 2018, City Council adopted Resolution No. 1420 to consider amending Housing
Implementation Action during next amendment period
• Resolution 1420 identified 2 options for amending Comprehensive Plan.
1. Delete entire Implementation Action
1. Develop a strategy by 2019 for- iner-easing the sepply of affeMable hattsing and Meeting
diverse housing needs
2. Change only "due date" for housing strategy
• After Resolution 1420 , Council approved new process for Citizens' Housing Commission under
Resolution No. 1427
■ New Resolution calls for Housing Commission to develop "policy recommendations" for City
Council consideration by end of 2020
• Staff identified a third option that reflects the establishment of the Citizens' Housing Commission
in 2019:
3. Provide housing policy options by the end of 2020 for City Council consideration."
• At their October 29' meeting, the Planning Commission recommended the following:
0
housingileeds
o Provide housing policy options by the end of 2020 for City Council consideration, including
input from the Planning
• Next steps:
o Tonight, Council may provide direction on a preferred amendment option
o Draft ordinance will be prepared for Nov. 26 public hearing
Councilmember Buckshnis thanked Ms. Hope for her work on the Citizens Housing Commission (CHC),
commenting she went to one of their meetings and it looks like they are firming up well. She recalled when n
the resolution was introduced last year, she favored removing the requirement to have a strategy for Q
affordable housing because the Housing Element in the Comprehensive Plan includes strategies to promote
affordable housing, administrative procedures, development standards, low cost housing production,
preservation plans, housing financing strategies as well as housing goals and policies. She preferred to 0
delete the requirement and allow the CHC to complete their work. w
Councilmember Teitzel spoke in favor of option 3, pointing out the Planning Board is comprised of
dedicated, well-informed citizens who know a lot about these issues and it would be good to let the CHC E
do their work and develop draft proposals and options which would be reviewed by the Planning Board
before coming to Council. a
Councilmember Tibbott said he also favored option 3. He asked whether option 3 included input from the
Planning Board or would that be a 4' option. Ms. Hope said the Planning Board's recommendation is option
3 with the addition of "including input from the Planning Board." A question will be whether the Planning
Board input comes prior to the end of 2020 or subsequently or both. If it occurs before the end of 2020, that
means the CHC's work needs to be completed before that and the intent was to complete their work by the
end of 2020.
Councilmember Tibbott asked if the language would need to specify Planning Board input in 2021. Ms.
Hope answered it could be left the way it is, knowing that means some flexibility or it could state, "provide
housing policy options by the ed of 2020 for City Council consideration and subsequent input from the
Planning Board." Councilmember Tibbott favored that wording.

5.1.a
Councilmember Mesaros asked if a date was even needed. Ms. Hope said no, is not a state requirement;
implementation actions typically have a date as they are intended to be time specific. Councilmember
Mesaros suggested 2021, relaying his understanding of the importance of getting it done.
Councilmember Buckshnis said if the intent was to include the implementation action in the Comprehensive
Plan, 2020 would shorten the timeframe for the CHC's work. She did not want to constrain the CHC and
preferred to include 2021 if a date was included. Ms. Hope observed including input from the Planning
Board would fit within the 2021 timeframe.
Councilmember Nelson was also satisfied with 2021. He commented including input from the Planning
Board is a standard process and he was uncertain it had to be called out in the Comprehensive Plan. Ms.
Hope said the Planning Board requested that language be included. Councilmember Nelson said the
Planning Board's input is consistently considered and he did not favor a practice of calling that out in the
Comprehensive Plan.
It was the consensus of the Council to change 2020 to 2021.
3. CITY ATTORNEY CONTRACT EXTENSION
Councilmember Mesaros requested City Attorney Jeff Taraday reviewed the proposed contract, particularly
payment for services where the biggest changes are proposed. Councilmember Mesaros requested an
opportunity to speak following Mr. Taraday.
Councilmember Teitzel advised Councilmember Mesaros and he saw the draft contract before it was
included in the Council packet; they suggested minor changes and this version reflects that input.
Mr. Taraday pointed out the flat fee that Lighthouse charges the City of Edmonds on a monthly basis is
proposed to be increased at a rate of 4%, the typical annual increase in their fee. The biggest change in the >
0
contract compared to previous contracts is in sections 3 b, c and d. He provided context for the change n
proposed in those sections. In the past Lighthouse has had two relatively long term contracts with the City; a
Q
Lighthouse was initially retained in 2011 with a 4-year contract that extended through 2015. In 2015, the
contract was extended with a 3-year contract. Last year Lighthouse was given a 1-year extension so the
City could do a performance evaluation which has now been completed.
r
W
Mr. Taraday emphasized the following about the flat fee that the City has benefited from during the last 9
years. First, Lighthouse Law Group does not offer the flat fee to any other client; it is only provided to the
E
City of Edmonds. Second, he was not aware of any other municipal law firms that offer a flat fee for city
attorney services that includes litigation. Some will offer a flat fee for general services but if the city is
sued, there will be additional charges for litigation. Under the flat fee agreement with Lighthouse, when the a
City has been sued on a case not covered by insurance pool, Lighthouse defended the City within the flat
fee and the City did not pay litigation -related attorney fees, a highly unusual arrangement. Third,
Lighthouse's annual report given in March 2019 converted the hours worked and fees received; the net
result was rate of $141/hour, an affordable rate by any standard.
Mr. Taraday said last year and some of the remarks made this year caused him to wonder whether the City
intended to continue with their services, and certainly the Council could choose to go in-house, an option
that is currently being evaluated. He acknowledged many cities have in-house lawyers; the flat fee provided
to the City of Edmonds is intended to be a loyal client discount that is not offered to any other clients. When
the flat fee was first offered, it was part of a long term contract. He would not generally sign up to work for
$141 /hour for any client.
Edmonds City Council Draft Minutes
November 4, 2019
Page 20
Packet Pg. 23
5.1.a
Mr. Taraday explained the reason he was providing this context was given the options currently being
evaluated for the future, he wanted to ensure his firm was not put in a position of doing a bunch of severely
discounted work only to be replaced by an in-house lawyer. That was not to suggest he was expecting that
the City would go in-house as there are many good reasons not to which he said would become apparent in
the analysis but, at the same time, he needed to look out for Lighthouse and ensure they were entering into
a relationship that was fair for them. He and his partners want to ensure if they continue the flat fee
arrangement it is not a situation where they work hard in 2020 under a flat fee and then be replaced with
in-house counsel. That was not a risk he willing to take with the flat fee and was the reason for sections 3
b, c, d.
Mr. Taraday explained Lighthouse is still committed to the flat fee as long as the City is committed to
Lighthouse. All the things that would convert the flat fee to hourly rates are entirely within the City's
control; Lighthouse cannot unilaterally decide to convert to an hourly arrangement. Conversion to an hourly
arrangement are triggered by three things that are entirely within the City's control, 1) the City terminates
the agreement with Lighthouse, which can be done with 60 days' notice, 2) the City approves an in-house
city attorney position, or 3) the City does not renew the agreement with Lighthouse for 2021. These three
triggers get at basically the same thing: if City the decides, despite Lighthouse's positive performance
evaluation, to go in a different direction, Lighthouse wants to ensure they have not been taken advantage
of.
Mr. Taraday explained if any of those three things happened, Lighthouse has the option to either continue
operating under the flat fee or convert to hourly. The hourly rates are set forth in the agreement and are
essentially the same hourly rates they charge another city client. That city's contract resets on May 1 so the
rate for the first four months of 2020 differ from the rates for the last eight months of 2020; section 3d of
the proposed contract reflects a blended rate that would apply to 2020. In the event the City of Edmonds
did one of the triggering things and Lighthouse opted to convert to hourly, the rates in section 3d would
apply retroactively to January 1, 2020.
If for example, on August 1, 2020, the City of Edmonds decides to bring a city attorney position in-house, a
that would be a triggering event. In that scenario, Lighthouse has until the end of the year or until the Q
contract is terminated to decide whether to convert to an hourly fee. If the contract converts to hourly,
Lighthouse would re -invoice the City on an hourly basis for all the work done January 1, 2020 until they
exercised that option. In discussions with Council President Fraley-Monillas , she asked if the City could
r
have another attorney look at the contract. If the City wanted to do that, it was appropriate, however, w
attorney fee agreements are subject to the rules of professional conduct. Most of the time when attorneys
pose fee arrangements to clients, they are reviewed by a third party attorney. The rule of professional
conduct is in place to ensure fee agreements are fair. He was happy to wait for the City to have outside
counsel look at the proposed contract if that was deemed necessary and appropriate.
Q
As Councilmember Teitzel stated, Councilmember Mesaros said they had had an opportunity to review and
comment on the contract and Mr. Taraday made some revisions in response to their comments.
Councilmember Mesaros explained he was involved in a professional services firm for 21 years and was
president and CEO of that firm for 11 years. One of the items in their contracts, often multiple month and
sometimes multiple year contracts, was a 30 day notice of cancellation. Typically that contract was a flat
fee for the period of time. However, when serving a client, the time provided each month is not always the
same. Therefore, in the event of a cancellation, the contract reverted to time spent. When Mr. Taraday
shared the proposed contract, it seemed natural to do that so the firm could recoup the cost of the time spent
serving the City. He was comfortable with the proposed contract.
Councilmember Buckshnis recalled going through this with Lighthouse in 2015, noting that process also
took a lot of time. She observed it was obviously not possible to please everyone all the time. In 2015 there

was an administrative issue that they worked through via one-on-one with the directors. The reviews from
the administration were very good this year and she complimented Mr. Taraday and Lighthouse on the
work they have done. To appease some of people some of time, she supported doing an RFQ which had
been done with Ogden Murphy Wallace who had been providing city attorney services to the City for 23
years.
Councilmember Buckshnis asked if an RFQ would be a triggering event. Mr. Taraday answered no, an RFQ
would not be a triggering event that allows Lighthouse to exercise the option to convert to hourly. People
do RFPs to the test market and to understand what the competition is charging to determine if they are
getting a good deal. There are only 4-5 municipal law firms in Washington state and they regularly compete
against each other and did so during this past year. Those rates are available and an RFP is not necessary
to see what other firms charging because, 1) the 4-5 firms regularly compete with either other when there
are vacancies, and 2) all the contracts are public so it is easy to see what firms are charging.
Mr. Taraday agreed with the City getting the data it needed to ensure they were comfortable with the value
they were receiving but if the City already has the data and still does an RFP, that signals to Lighthouse
that they are not wanted in Edmonds. Councilmember Buckshnis said she would not make that stretch; the
Council needs to protect the citizens. Neither the citizens nor she will not do all that public record work.
An RFP was how the City ended up interviewing Lighthouse; the City did an RFP to test the market. She
summarized Lighthouse's numbers look good and she was aware Lighthouse provided the City a good
price. She questioned what happened if the City wanted to test market to see that Lighthouse was within
the parameters. Mr. Taraday said the City could absolutely do that; an RFP is not a triggering event under
the contract, but it is somewhat insulting to his firm.
Councilmember Buckshnis apologized, commenting sometimes things happen. The numbers look very c
good this year; it is impossible to please everybody all the time. She expressed appreciation for Mr. Taraday c
and his staff s work, pointing out there are a number of attorneys at Lighthouse. Mr. Taraday answered
cc
there are eight attorneys at Lighthouse. Councilmember Buckshnis summarized she just wanted to get c
clarity, noting there will be a tremendous change next year and she wanted to ensure the City had a good a
path of professionalism. She recalled all the work that Lighthouse inherited from the City's previous city Q
attorney, Ogden Murphy Wallace. c,
v
Council President Fraley-Monillas said she was not sold on seeking an outside attorney to review the
r
contract and believed the Council could make a decision although she acknowledged it was always prudent w
to have an attorney review a contract. She asked for clarification whether an RFP/RFQ would trigger
converting to an hourly rate. Mr. Taraday said that language was included in an earlier draft but was
removed.
Council President Fraley-Monillas agreed with Councilmember Buckshnis about doing due diligence, a
recalling the Council did that with Ogden Murphy Wallace. She distributed and reviewed calculations she
had prepared, commenting her concern was the budget. Taking Lighthouse's hours last year, 3,930 per
Lighthouse's report, divided by 12 months equals an average of approximately 328 hours/month. For
comparison, using the high end attorney's hourly rate on Mr. Taraday's list, $295/hour and the low end
hourly rate of $221, if the City was back -billed by Lighthouse for $295/hour for 3,930 hours would be
$1.2M for 2020. The back -bill would be an average cost of $72,000 - $96,000. From that, the approximately
$50,000/month base that the City currently pays would need to be subtracted. Being back -billed by
Lighthouse would cost an additional $46,000/month for the $295 hourly rate and an additional
$22,000/month for the $221 hourly rate. She noted it was difficult to estimate without knowing which
hourly rate was applicable to the work that was performed.

5.1.a
Council President Fraley-Monillas said if the Council did its due diligence and found the "most perfect law
firm" in June, the City would owe Lighthouse approximately $500,000. She was not comfortable with
making a decision on the contract tonight. She appreciated Mr. Taraday saying Lighthouse did not have to
back -bill to January 1, 2020 because it was her initial understanding that that would be done if the Council
looked at attorneys. She summarized if the City does engage with another attorney, that would be the cost.
That may be fair but the Council needs to consider the budget at least through 2020.
Councilmember Nelson said he could appreciate the Lighthouse Law Group trying to exercise leverage
against the City of Edmonds. He did not agree with the contract and did not need an outside attorney to tell
the Council that it boxes the City in and limits what the City can do and explore. The City currently pays
Lighthouse $600,000/year in attorney fees and needs to have flexibility and not be restricted. This contact,
as written, will restrict what the City can do and he did not support it.
Councilmember Teitzel reminded the Council of the fairly extensive process to evaluate the quality of legal
representation the City is getting from Lighthouse and the generally very positive scores. There were some
outliers that Mr. Taraday is aware of and will be addressing. That is Part A of the process. During the
October 22 Council meeting, the Council approved an evaluation of attorney costs for 10 neighboring cities.
Councilmember Mesaros and he are in the process of gathering that data for Council review and
consideration. If the Council decides to issue an RFQ, that obviates the work Councilmember Mesaros and
he are doing to gaining comparative numbers.
m
Councilmember Teitzel commented the Council thinks it is getting a good deal; the data being gathered
will confirm whether that is true. The Council needs to make a fact -based decision before doing an RFQ —
process. He found it premature at this point to do an RFQ until the data Councilmember Mesaros and he 3
are gathering is provided. As a business person, he understood Lighthouse's concern about the City 0
potentially making a change because it puts their firm at some risk. He cautioned the City not to make any c
decision in the near term until the evaluation regarding costs with neighboring cities was complete. 0
0
Council President Fraley-Monillas expressed appreciation for the yeoman's amount work done by a
Councilmembers Mesaros and Teitzel, recognizing there is more information to gather. She contacted AWC Q
regarding temporary attorney services beginning in January if the City is unable to reach an agreement with
Mr. Taraday. The City's current contract with Lighthouse extends through December 31, 2019. She has not
received an answer from AWC yet. She pointed out the City will have a new Mayor next year and a
r
predominantly new Council; she did not want the current Council to lock a new Mayor and new Council w
into something that will extend years into the future. She recognized there was a 60-day cancellation in the
current contract with Lighthouse. She will communicate with Council via email once she receives
information from AWC regarding the cost and what it would look like if the City does not approve a contract
with Lighthouse and Mr. Taraday says, "forget you people."
Q
Councilmember Buckshnis did not want to put words in Mr. Taraday's mouth and did not think he would
say forget you people. She favored keeping the same attorney at least until next year because there will be
a brand new Council and a Mayor. Most of the numbers in Lighthouse's evaluation look great, most are 7
out of 7. Her question was what if the City wanted to do an RFQ next year for whatever reason although
she was not proposing that. She recognized how hard Lighthouse worked and the numbers looked great;
other options were being evaluated due to rumblings about going to an in-house city attorney. She did not
support an in-house attorney because they would report to the Mayor giving that person even more control.
Mayor Earling relayed his understanding that Councilmembers Mesaros and Teitzel will continue their
work and provide a report along with the information Council President Fraley-Monillas developed.

Councilmember Mesaros suggested Council review the data provided by Council President Fraley-Monillas
and he will work with her on a future agenda item to bring this matter to a close as soon as possible in a
manner that would provide some certainty about the coming 12 months and as well as be fair to the
Lighthouse Law Group. He suggested Councilmember Teitzel, he and Mr. Taraday consider the comments
made tonight and possibly make some revisions to the contract.
Councilmember Teitzel relayed the contract with Lighthouse expires at the end of 2019 so something needs
to be done in fairly short order to either extend or terminate the contract. Mr. Taraday agreed that certainly
something needed to be done before the end of year if the Council wanted him to work for the City next
year.

City Council Agenda Item
Meeting Date: 11/12/2019
Public Hearing of the Proposed 2020-2025 Capital Facilities Plan/Capital Improvement Program
Staff Lead: Rob English
Department: Engineering
Preparer: Megan Luttrell
Background/History
On November 4, 2019, staff presented the 2020 department budgets which included capital decision
packages proposed in the 2020-2025 Capital Facilities Plan/Capital Improvement Program.
Staff Recommendation
Consider public comment and discuss possible changes and/or forward both documents for approval at
the November 19th City Council Meeting.
Narrative
The City's Capital Facilities Plan (CFP) Element is a document updated annually and identifies capital
projects for at least the next six years which support the City's Comprehensive Plan. The CFP contains a
list of projects that need to be expanded or will be new capital facilities in order to accommodate the
City's projected population growth in accordance with the Growth Management Act. Thus, capital
projects that preserve existing capital facilities are not included in the CFP. These preservation projects
are identified within the six -year capital improvement program (CIP) along with capital facility plan
projects which encompass the projected expenditure needs for all city capital related projects.
CIP vs. CFP
The CFP and CIP are not the same thing; they arise from different purposes and are in response to
different needs. While the CIP is a budgeting tool that includes capital and maintenance projects, tying
those projects to the various City funds and revenues, the CFP is intended to identify longer term capital
needs (not maintenance) and be tied to City levels of service standards. The CFP is also required to be
consistent with the other elements (transportation, parks, etc) of the Comprehensive Plan, and there
are restrictions as to how often a CFP can be amended. There are no such restrictions tied to the CIP.
The proposed 2020-2025 CFP is attached as Exhibit 1. The CFP has three project sections comprised of
General, Transportation and Stormwater. The proposed 2020-2025 CIP is attached as Exhibit 2. The CIP
has two sections related to general and parks projects and each project list is organized by the City's
financial fund numbers. Exhibit 3 is a comparison that shows added, deleted and changed projects
between last year's CFP/CIP to the proposed CFP/CIP.
The CFP and CIP were presented to the Planning Board on October 9th and a public hearing was held on
October 23rd. The Planning Board recommended the CFP and CIP be forwarded to the City Council for
approval. The draft minutes from the Planning Board meetings are attached as Exhibits 4 and 5.

PROJECT NAME: 228th St. SW from Hwy. 99 ESTIMATED PROJECT COST: $11,700,000
to 95th PI. W
PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Widen 228th St. SW from Hwy. 99 to 95th Pl. W to three lanes
(with two-way left turn lane), with curb and gutter, sidewalk, and bike lanes.
PROJECT BENEFIT/RATIONALE: This project would improve active transportation safety
and traffic flows along this corridor. Community Transit would also look into creating a new
east -west bus route along 228th St. SW if this project moves forward (connecting Edmonds
Transit Station to Mountlake Terrace Transit Station).
SCHEDULE: The design phase is scheduled to begin in 2023 (pending funding). More than
half the project is within Esperance / Snohomish County. A Sound Transit System Access
grant was submitted in May '19 to fully fund this project but the grant wasn't secured. Sound
Transit also has funding available through ST3 to improve accessibility to the Sound Transit
Station. Mukilteo and Edmonds have $40 Million in combined funding to complete projects
improving access to the Sound Transit Station (for all modes of transportation). The City
indicated to Sound Transit that this project should to be considered by Sound Transit and it is
currently being evaluated. A final response from Sound Transit whether this project is funded
or not is scheduled for late 2019.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION: PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Install traffic signal at the intersection
of 196th St. SW @ 88th Ave. W. The modeling in the 2009 Transportation Plan indicated that
restricting northbound and southbound traffic to right -turn -only (prohibiting left -turn and through
movements) would also address the deficiency identified at this location through 2025. This is
same alternative as one concluded by consultant in 2007 study but not recommended by City
Council. This could be implemented as an alternate solution, or as an interim solution until
traffic signal warrants are met. The ex. LOS is F (below City Standards: LOS D). This project
was ranked #6 in the Roadway Project Priority in the 2015 Transportation Plan.
PROJECT BENEFIT/RATIONALE: Improve traffic flow characteristics and safety at the
intersection. The improvement would modify LOS to A, but increase the delay along 196th St.
SW.
SCHEDULE: All project phases are scheduled between 2023 and 2025 (unsecured funding).
In order to allow the installation of a traffic signal, the MUTCD traffic signal warrants must be
met and the installation must be approved by WSDOT (since 196th St. SW is a State Route /
SR-524).

PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Add a lift station in the Beach Place parking lot and supporting
stormwater conveyance structures. The scope also includes baffle manholes to divert flows
away from Harbor Square and the Edmonds Marsh, and provide a sub -surface connection for
overflows.
PROJECT BENEFIT/RATIONALE: To reduce flooding at the intersection of Dayton St. and
State Hwy 104. The Project is part of a series of projects recommended in the 2013 study of
necessary storm water improvements related to Shellabarger Creek, Willow Creek, and
Edmonds Marsh. The project is complimentary to the Willow Creek Daylighting project in that
the pump is required to manage flood conditions after the daylighting project is completed.
SCHEDULE: A construction contract has been awarded and is expected to be substantially
complete in 2019. Total cost est. at $2.1 M; 2020 budget shown is intended for project close-
out.

Daylighting — Design & Construction
Aerial photo of Marsh from 2018
General Project Location
Marsh as it existed in 1941
Updated project concept
PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The project will daylight Willow Creek and help begin restoration efforts in
the Marsh. The project has three sub -components including (1) daylighting Willow Creek through the
Edmonds Marsh and existing Unocal property, (2) daylighting of the Willow Creek through Marina
Beach Park and redevelopment of the Park, and (3) excavation/reestablishment of tidal channels within
the Marsh. The project includes significant re -vegetation and mitigation within the Marsh to improve
habitat conditions and, depending on the final recommended alternative, may also include significant
flood wall and/or berms.
PROJECT BENEFIT/ RATIONALE: The daylighting of Willow Creek and subsequent redevelopment of
Marina Beach park will help reverse the negative impacts to Willow Creek and Edmonds Marsh that
occurred when Willow Creek was piped in the early 1960s. This project will provide habitat for
salmonids, including rearing of juvenile Chinook. The project, along with its companion CIP project
"Dayton Street Pump Station", will also help reduce the flooding problem at the intersection of SR-104
and Dayton Street. This project is a priority in the Edmonds Comprehensive Plan.

A sketch of the project provided in grant application
materials.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The City applied for and received a grant from the Department of
Ecology to design and construct an additional stormwater infiltration facility in Seaview Park.
The proposal will duplicate the system successfully installed during Phase 1 and is tentatively
planned for construction in 2022.
PROJECT BENEFIT/RATIONALE: Urbanization of the Perrinville Creek Basin has increased
flows in the creek, incision of the creek, and sedimentation in the low -gradient downstream
reaches of the creek. A flow reduction study for the Perrinville Creek basin was completed in
2015. This study recommended a number of flow control and water quality projects to improve
the conditions in Perrinville Creek. Control of the sediment loads in Perrinville Creek must be
achieved before proceeding with additional fish habitat improvement and removal of the
sediment collection structure the City currently maintains on the creek near Talbot Road.
SCHEDULE: Design is anticipated to begin in 2020 with construction planned for 2022 in order
to allow ample time to acquire permits and meet grant obligations during the design phase.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Daylight Willow Creek through the Edmonds Marsh, across Marina
Beach to the Puget Sound, thus increasing connectivity to upstream spawning habitat for salmonid
species and other aquatic life. Excavate tidal channels within the marsh and clean out SR104 culverts
to improve hydrology and reduce flooding during high flows. Funds used to support grant writing
efforts and paid for out of storm water fund 422.
PROJECT BENEFIT/RATIONALE: The daylighting of Willow Creek and subsequent
redevelopment of Marina Beach park will help reverse the negative impacts to Willow Creek and
Edmonds Marsh that occurred when Willow Creek was piped in the early 1960s. This project will
provide habitat for salmonids, including rearing of juvenile Chinook. This project, along with its
companion CIP projects "Edmonds Marsh Channel Improvements" and "Dayton Street Pump Station,"
will also help reduce the flooding problem at the intersection of SR-104 and Dayton Street. This project
is a priority in the Edmonds Comprehensive Plan.

tAtragm Printing
PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The Carbon Recovery project would replace the sanitary sewage incinerator (SSI) and
associated equipment. The SSI is 30 years old and must meet stringent EPA and PSCAA regulations which mandate a full
replacement after 50% of the original cost in O&M upgrade has been expensed. Cost of regulatory compliance alone is
estimated to be >$100,000/year. Many pieces of equipment within the SSI system are beyond their life expectancy and many
are not supported by manufacturers. The Design for the proiect is scheduled for completion in earlv 2020.
PROJECT BENEFIT/ RATIONALE:
The replacement technology being proposed in the Phase 6 Carbon Recovery project is a belt dryer, pyrolysis units and odor
control system. The pyrolysis equipment will be housed in a new building within the current WWTP footprint and would be
fully integrated into the plant control system.
Furthermore, the Carbon Recovery project is the single best opportunity for the WWTP to meet the goals and objectives of the
Council Resolution 1389 which commits Edmonds to achieving or exceeding the environmental goals established in the Paris
Accords by reducing "greenhouse gas" emissions. The project will provide a beneficial use of the end product, referred to as
"biochar", while reducing O&M cost in terms of electricity, regulatory compliance, ongoing maintenance, hauling and disposal
costs.

DEVELOPMENT SERVICES DIRECTOR REPORT TO PLANNING BOARD
There were no comments related to the Development Services Director Report
JOINT MEETING WITH THE ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN BOARD (ADB): DESIGN REVIEW ROLES AND
PROCESS
Mr. Clugston reviewed that the Planning Board and ADB discussed revisions to the ADB's roles and involvement in project
reviews at a joint meeting on July 24', and the Planning Board discussed revisions to the ADB's roles and processes at a
joint meeting with the City Council on September 241. The purpose of this meeting is to have continued discussion about the
ADB's changing roles in developing the guidance and standards necessary to influence design in Edmonds and its specific
role in the project design review process. It is anticipated that, at the end of the discussion, the two groups will provide
direction to staff to draft code revisions to implement the changes.
Mr. Clugston reviewed that the ADB is concerned that the design standards are incomplete and do not always yield the
results that the ADB and the Edmonds community want to see. The ADB feels it spends too much time approving already -
designed projects without being able to influence design decisions early in the development process. They have expressed a
desire to have an earlier role in the review process, as well as a role in reviewing and developing design standards. He
referred to Attachment 1, which provides a summary of the ADB's current codified powers and duties compared with the
ADB's desired roles and a list of recommendations from the ADB. He also referred to Attachment 2, which is a flowchart of
the proposed new design review process. He reviewed the ADB's recommendations are as follows:
1. Mandatory pre -application meetings with prospective applicants, before designs are completed and
applications submitted. For the past 30 years, the ADB's work has focused on making quasi-judicial decisions at
the end of a project review, and this has caused it to miss opportunities to participate in recent design work related to
Westgate, Highway 99, Five Corners, etc. As was discussed at the last joint meeting, quasi-judicial decision making
at the end of a project review cycle is not the best use of the ADB's time and expertise. In addition, the City
Council, via Resolution 1367, has stated its intent to remove volunteer boards from the quasi-judicial decision -
making role. As envisioned, the ADB would have two touches of larger projects during the design review cycle.
The first would be at the pre -application phase when an applicant is still in the early stages of project development,
and the second would be during the application review as a recommendation to the final decision maker. A
mandatory pre -application meeting would allow the ADB to provide guidance on a variety of elements, including
massing, site context and open space, before an applicant spends significant time and money preparing design plans.
The second review would allow the Board to take a second look at a project to see if the applicant addressed the
Board's design vision from the pre -application meeting and propose design conditions if it did not.
2. Periodic reviews of completed projects, comparing approved designs to completed projects. Post -hoc reviews
of completed projects would allow the ADB to see how projects age into sites and whether what was envisioned by
the design standards and guidelines are working or if they need to be revised to ensure the community is getting the
design it wants.
3. Review City codes and policies related to design, making recommendations to the City Council on
adjustments or, when appropriate, new standards or design guidance. The ADB would like to have a role in
developing and recommending citywide design guidelines and standards, as well as context -sensitive standards for
special design districts such as Highway 99, Five Corners, Westgate, etc.
Board Member Owensby said the ADB hasn't had a lot of opportunity to discuss how the proposed recommendations would
be implemented, but they all feel frustration with the current process and their inability to provide input relative to design. In
some cases, the ADB has approved projects it normally wouldn't have simply because they meet all of the City's design
standards and they had no choice. He said the ADB would like to play a larger role in developing policies and codes that
affect design. There are currently a lot of design standards that appear to be requirements, when in fact, they are just
guidelines and the ADB doesn't have the ability to enforce them. It would be good to have guidelines in place that are both
consistent and enforceable. He suggested that, rather than one -size -fits -all design standards, the standards should recognize
Planning Board Minutes
October 9, 2019 Page 2
Packet Pg. 171
7.1.d
that the setbacks, building modulation and other design standards need to based on the type of building, as well as its use and
location.
Chair Herr recalled that, just recently, an applicant presented a project that the ADB really liked but could not approve as
presented. While the intent of the design standards is good, it wasn't possible to meet them without making significant
structural engineering changes. The Board's hands were tied because it has no discretionary ability to modify the standards.
If the ADB had been involved early in the design, perhaps it could have recommended some potential solutions. In the end,
the applicant came back with a project that met all of the Board's recommendations, but a lot of time and money was required
to get to that point. They could have got out in front of these issues if they had had an opportunity to meet with the applicant
early in the design process. He summarized that the Board can recommend changes as part of its quasi-judicial review, but it
has no authority to stop a project that meets all of the design guidelines and code standards. The fact that this developer took
the ADB's recommendations to heart and redesigned the building was a bonus, but he didn't have to do it.
Chair Herr explained that, with the current process, applicant's present projects and the Board reviews the Design Guideline
Checklist and signs off on them without having an opportunity to provide significant input. They can make
recommendations, but there are no teeth to require applicants to implement changes. If the ADB doesn't like a project, they
have to approve it anyway if it meets all of the design guidelines and codes. The ADB would like to be involved earlier in
design review to help guide projects.
Board Member Guenther pointed out that the ADB has never been invited to provide input on design elements when the
Comprehensive Plan is updated. He expressed his belief that the ADB needs to be more involved in both Comprehensive
Plan policies and legislative code amendments related to design. Besides just approving projects, the ADB can offer a lot
more.
Board Member Rosen asked what the Planning Board's role will be in the process of changing the ADB's role and the design
review process. Mr. Chave explained that, as per code, the Planning Board is responsible for making recommendations to the
City Council regarding amendments to the Development Code, including ADB procedures and responsibilities, and that is
why the ADB is meeting jointly with the Planning Board to share its recommendation.
Mr. Chave said the ADB has discussed having all of the design standards in one section of the code, and then having the
ADB the body in charge of making recommendations to the City Council regarding design code changes. He suggested it
would be awkward for the ADB to have study sessions and public hearings on proposed amendments, only for the Planning
Board to have to repeat the process before making a recommendation to the City Council. The ADB is interested in having a
stronger role in the development of design guidelines (Comprehensive Plan) and design standards (Development Code), and
staff believes it would make sense for the ADB to submit their recommendations directly to the City Council.
In an attempt to advance the recommendations with the best opportunity for success, Board Member Rosen asked if it would
be better to have the recommended changes come from the Planning Board or from both boards together. Mr. Chave
suggested that it would be appropriate to present the proposed changes to the City Council in a joint meeting.
Regarding Board Member Guenther's comment about the ADB being left out of the Comprehensive Plan process, Board
Member Rubenkonig pointed out that there hasn't been a comprehensive review of the Comprehensive Plan for quite a while.
The most recent amendments were unrelated to design. Board Member Guenther recalled that he was a member of the
Planning Board when the design element of the Comprehensive Plan was updated, and the Planning Board did not solicit
feedback or help from the ADB. He suggested that it would be appropriate for the ADB to participate the next time the
design element is updated.
Board Member Rubenkonig asked Mr. Chave to explain the City's process for reviewing the Comprehensive Plan. Mr.
Chave said the City completes a comprehensive update of its Comprehensive Plan every seven years. In between, the City
conducts an annual update to address minor changes that are needed for one reason or another. He said the ADB has
suggested it would like to take a larger role in modifications to and development of the design guidelines, some of which are
in the Comprehensive Plan. They would also like a larger role in creating and modifying the design standards in the
Development Code. He noted that their input has been largely left out of previous updates.

Board Member Monroe recalled that at the last joint meeting, the two boards talked about the need for a deviation process.
He asked if the ADB had a chance to talk about the concept further. Board Member Owensby answered no. Mr. Chave
explained that the proposal currently before the Board would modify the code to allow the ADB to be involved earlier in
design review and to have a role in developing and modifying design guidelines, design standards and other code regulations
related to design. If and when the current proposal is adopted by the City Council, the ADB can begin to discuss potential
code amendments, including a provision that allows for deviations to the design standards.
Vice Chair Robles recalled that at the joint meeting, he recognized that the ADB members are creative, technically -minded
and safety conscious in taking care of details. At their joint meeting with the Council, the Planning Board expressed its belief
that the ADB is being underutilized at this time. For example, it was pointed out that the ADB has some great ideas related
to Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) that could be beneficial to the Housing Commission. When the City Council made it
clear that ADU's were under the purview of the Housing Commission, he pointed out that allowing the ADB to study the
issue and recommend a set of specifications that can work for ADUs would help the Housing Commission move quicker. He
said he can see how the ADB's work at the front end could actually lubricate the issue and allow it to run smoother rather
than hold it back. He wholeheartedly agreed that having ADB participation closer to the front end of design review would be
beneficial, as well. He asked what would be the best approach for pushing the ADB's recommended changes forward to the
City Council.
Chair Herr referred to Attachment 1, which outlines what the ADB is striving to accomplish. However, implementing all of
the changes will take baby steps. The ADB's recommendation list only includes three items as a place to start. As the
changes are implemented, the Board will get a better idea of how it can best serve and help applicants present their projects.
If the ADB is allowed to comment earlier, their feedback will come more as a suggestion or recommendation. If they are
presented at the end after a project has been fully designed, applicants are much less willing to consider the
recommendations. Having the review come earlier in the process will benefit developers, the ADB, the City and the
community.
Vice Chair Robles stressed the need to clearly articulate the ADB's vision. If you flip the politics, it becomes an easy
change. It is all about communicating the proposal to the City Council in a way that they are open to the rest of the changes.
Mr. Chave referred to Attachment 1, which lists the ADB's current powers and duties, noting that most of what the ADB
currently does (reviewing projects) isn't even on the list. Their major job now is to act as the approval body for projects
rather than providing design expertise for the development of design in the City. The ADB is suggesting going back to the
powers and duties that the current code assigns to them. They would still have a role in project review, but it would be
pushed much earlier in the process to better influence how design develops. Having a provision in place that allows for
design standard modifications would encourage good design to happen. He summarized that if the Planning Board supports
the ADB's recommendations, staff could schedule a joint meeting with the ADB, Planning Board and City Council. If the
Council is receptive to the recommendation, staff could draft the appropriate code changes to make it happen.
Board Member Owensby agreed that the proposal's success will depend on how it is presented to the City Council. He
doesn't want to step on anyone's toes. As an architect, he has to gather and assimilate a variety of information (building
codes, soil conditions, client desires, etc.) in order to do a good project. The ADB members excel at doing this. With regards
to ADUs, the ADB could help the Housing Commission think through the process creatively so that Edmonds gets the type
of housing it needs.
Vice Chair Robles agreed that the Housing Commission is necessary, and the ADB could support their efforts so they don't
get bogged down with details that would be easy for the ADB to address. Mr. Chave explained that the Housing
Commission's role will be to come up with policies relative to ADUs and not to develop detailed standards for ADU's. Once
the policies are in place, they will allow the Planning Board and/or ADB to come up with specific implementation standards
to implement the policies. The City Council didn't want the Planning Board and ADB to "get too far into the weeds" before
the Housing Commission comes up with the big picture policy direction.
Board Member Rubenkonig said she watched the video of the Planning Board's joint meeting with the City Council and
observed that there was a misrepresentation of the ADU concept and that some Board Members confused the issue. She
appreciates that Mr. Chave has set the Board straight. She said the way the Board could impact the ADU discussion was also
Planning Board Minutes

7.1.d
misrepresented. It is her understanding that the Planning Board and ADB can look at the current criteria for detached ADUs
and consider other criteria that would result in acceptable design for the City, and it is time for that to take place. There is no
new policy being made at this time for detached ADU's, and it is not within their purview to discuss policy changes.
However, the Planning Board can work with the ADB to see if there is another way for ADUs to look that might be more
palatable for the neighborhoods and the City. The current regulations have been in place for a long time, and perhaps they no
longer represent the present concerns or future needs. Discussing these regulations are well within the purview of the two
Boards. She recalled previous discussions with the Development Services Director, indicating that the Planning Board could
work with the ADB on the design issues related to ADU's. However, policies as to who can benefit from ADU's will come
from the Housing Commission. That is what the City Council was trying to clarify.
Board Member Rubenkonig concluded that, with this understanding and staff s support, the Planning Board can engage with
the ADB in looking at the design standards for ADUs. However, they must be clear they can always do what they have been
doing, which is making preferences known as to the benefit these structures could be for other people in the City aside from
family members. The Planning Board is expected to represent different views and be part of the conversation. Striking a
chord on the Board will require communication and that they are all in agreement when it comes to agenda setting for when
they meet with the City Council. They need to be clearer, publicly, about how they discuss things as a Board. Once they
make plans, they have to protect those plans and represent the Board in a fine manner. They have to be very clear tonight
about the difference between the policies the Housing Commission will be setting and the Planning Board's future work with
the ADB. She concluded that it was disconcerting to see the issue become so mottled, and she didn't want the confusion to
continue at this meeting.
Board Member Crank said she supports the ADB's recommendation and the flowchart that was attached to the Staff Report.
The last thing that volunteers want to feel like is that their time and talent is not being utilized because their hands are being
tied or that the work is not going down the right pathway for them to be effective. She recalled that, at the Planning Board's
joint meeting with the City Council, Councilmember Johnson brought up that some items have been on the Planning Board's
extended agenda for years. She would like these items to be revisited. She suggested that the 2020 Planning Board Chair
should proactively work with staff to schedule these projects on the Board's extended agenda and find ways to incorporate
the ADB where appropriate.
Board Member Rosen said that whenever he considers potential changes, he tries to consider what issues might come up that
will kill a new idea. He asked what are the worst things someone might say in opposition to the ADB's recommended
changes. Chair Herr responded that, without the changes, good volunteers may decide to leave their position on the ADB.
Board Member Rosen agreed that will be an outcome of the proposed change.
Board Member Guenther commented that if the ADB is able to make recommendations directly to the City Council, it will
appear they are being promoted a level up the chain. The current process requires the ADB to make recommendations to the
Planning Board and then the Planning Board makes a recommendation to the City Council. Along the way,
recommendations get modified, and what is eventually adopted may not be consistent with the ADB's original
recommendation. He said it makes sense for the ADB to make recommendations directly to the City Council, but this change
could raise some concerns.
Board Member Owensby voiced concern that elements of an ADB recommendation can get lost in the translation as it is
moved through the Planning Board and then to the City Council. The Planning Board may not have an adequate
understanding of an ADB recommendation to clearly explain to the City Council why it is important. If the ADB is able to
make recommendations directly to the City Council, they can clearly explain their reasoning. Board Member Rosen agreed
that many good ideas have been derailed by the current process, which is a compelling argument in support of the proposed
changes.
Mr. Chave said they may receive some pushback on the mandatory pre -application meeting requirement. He explained that
pre -application meetings are not mandatory at this point. Quite a number of applicants do them anyway, but it is something
else to make it mandatory. Some element of the development community is used to the current process, and adding a new
step early in the process might cause some pushback. He said that, in his view, it isn't really a penalty to require a pre -
application meeting; it just means that people will have to think of that earlier in the process.

Board Member Rosen asked if other jurisdictions in the region require pre -application meetings. Chari Herr said he works in
a lot of jurisdictions, and most have pre -application meetings. He said he doesn't think they will receive a lot of pushback
from the development community because they are used to it in most jurisdictions. Mr. Chave commented that some of the
local developers are not used to pre -application meetings, but they provide a potential benefit, particularly if the City has a
process for deviations to the standards. A pre -application meeting will allow the ADB to engage a prospective developer
early enough that they can see possibilities they may not have recognized themselves.
BOARD MEMBER ROSEN MOVED THAT THE BOARD ENDORSE THE RECOMMENDATION OF THE
ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN BOARD AND SET UP A TIME TO CO -PRESENT THE RECOMMENDATION TO
THE CITY COUNCIL. BOARD MEMBER CLOUTIER SECONDED THE MOTION.
Board Member Cloutier pointed out that, as proposed, the pre -application meeting would only be mandatory for significant
projects and not every project. Developers of larger projects will have a different level of visibility anyway. Mr. Chave
referred to the flowchart (Attachment 2) that was attached to the Staff Report, emphasizing that it is just a draft now. Once
they get into the details of the process, they can set different thresholds, depending on where projects are located. For
example, he can see that the threshold for mandatory pre -application meetings would be different for development in the
downtown versus Highway 99, Westgate, etc.
Board Member Owensby said he would like to make sure that any project that is publicly oriented should require a pre -
application meeting. This would include development on Highway 99, downtown, Five Corners, etc. The threshold should
be based on both size and location. Board Member Cloutier cautioned that it will be important to clearly define the threshold
so it is easy for people on the outside to understand. The process outlined in the flowchart is simple, setting the threshold at
projects that require State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA) review. Chair Herr agreed that would be a good place to start.
However, the pre -application meeting could remain an option for all projects, and some developers might take advantage of
the opportunity.
Board Member Rubenkonig said she has no comments regarding the contents of the Staff Report, but she is concerned that
the ADB hasn't had enough time to consider their recommendation and some of their members are not present. She observed
no action is required at this time. They can reconvene the joint meeting on a future date if necessary for the ADB to have
more preparation time. Chair Herr responded that the ADB has discussed the recommendation at length in prior meetings.
All members of the ADB have participated in the discussion and all are in agreement with the recommendation.
Board Member Owensby clarified that the intent of his earlier comment is that the ADB hasn't had time to go beyond the
initial recommendation to look at the specific design guidelines and design standards they might recommend in the future.
Once again, Chair Herr reminded them that it will take small steps, starting with outlining the framework and gaining the
Planning Board and City Council support. As they move forward, the details will all be fleshed out.
Board Member Rubenkonig asked the Planning Board members why they are comfortable moving the ADB's
recommendation on to the City Council. Board Member Cloutier clarified that they are not recommending a complete
rewrite of the code. They are simply endorsing the three recommendations provided in Attachment 1 of the Staff Report,
which outline what they want the ADB to be doing. The proposed recommendations set a vision for where the ADB should
be going, and then the recommendations will be implemented with new actions.
Board Member Monroe commented that the ADB recommendation represents a thoughtful process and is exactly the process
he wants to have for the design review board. The proposed changes offer a great way to keep the citizen boards engaged,
and they need to be able to fix things that aren't working. He is open to hearing the ADB's ideas for implementing the
changes in the future.
Chair Cheung said he appreciates the ADB's recommendation and found their arguments to be compelling. He supports
empowering the ADB to do work where they can help the most. Rather than the ADB making a recommendation to the
Planning Board and then the Planning Board making a recommendation to the City Council, he would support the ADB
making their own recommendations to the City Council.

Vice Chair Robles said he is an engineer and works with architects. They rely on each other, and the working relationship is
very important. It is also important that both boards represent the citizens. They need to take every opportunity to increase
the weight of the citizen comments, and he trusts the architects on the ADB to do that. He looks forward to their active
participation in forwarding the goal of protecting the health, safety and welfare of people and property.
Board Member Rubenkonig clarified that the ADB is made up of a planner, a civil engineer, at least one architect, a design
professional, and two representatives from the community. They are not all architects, but most are related to the design
profession. She cautioned against an overemphasis on the ADB members all being architects when the reality is, they
represent the design profession.
THE MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY.
Board Member Rubenkonig left the meeting at 8:00 p.m.
PRESENTATION OF THE PROPOSED 2020 — 2025 CAPITAL FACILITIES PLAN/CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT
PLAN (CFP/CIP)
Mr. English explained that the Capital Facilities Plan (CFP) is required by the Growth Management Act and covers a
planning horizon of 6 to 20 years. It is intended to identify longer term capital needs (not maintenance) and be tied to the
City's Level of Service (LOS) Standards. The Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) is a budgeting tool that includes capital and
maintenance projects, and it ties the projects to the various City funds and revenues. The CFP is required to be consistent
with the other elements of the Comprehensive Plan, and there are restrictions on how often it can be amended. There are no
restrictions tied to the CIP. The two plans intersect when identifying 6-year capital projects with funding sources. The CIP is
organized based on the City's financial funds and provides a description of each of the capital projects identified for the six -
year period.
Mr. English explained that projects are added to the CFP and CIP based on adopted elements of the City's Comprehensive
Plan. The Parks, Recreation and Open Space (PROS) Plan, the Transportation Plan and Utilities Plans all go through
extensive public processes of updating and establishing policies and goals. The CIP is tied to the City's budget and several
funds make up the overall document:
• Fund 112 is a Transportation Fund that is managed by the Public Works Department. It is funded via grants and the
gas tax.
• Fund 125 is a Capital Projects Fund that is managed by both the Public Works and Parks, Recreation and Cultural
Services Departments. It is funded by the Real Estate Excise Tax (REET).
• Fund 126 is a Special Capital Project and Parks Acquisition Fund that is managed by both the Public Works and
Parks, Recreation and Cultural Services Departments. It is also funded by REET.
• Fund 332 is a Parks Construction Fund that is managed by the Parks, Recreation and Cultural Services Department.
It is funded by grants.
• Fund 421 is the Water Utility Fund that is managed by the Public Works Department.
• Fund 422 is the Stormwater Utility Fund that is managed by the Public Works Department.
• Fund 423 is the Sewer and Wastewater Treatment Fund that is managed by the Public Works Department.
Mr. English shared highlights of 2019 Projects:
The $1.8 million Pavement Preservation Program was a key part of the program for maintaining City streets. In
2019, the City overlaid 6.5 lane miles and 13 new Americans with Disabilities (ADA) ramps were added using
funding from both the Street Overlay Program and the Utility Programs.
The 89t1i Place Retaining Wall Project was funded with REET dollars. The project is on a small cul-de-sac street.
The existing wall was failing and causing the street to settle and slope away. They were able to rebuild the rockery
with a mechanically stabilized earth (MSE) wall and the project was completed last spring at a cost of about
$125,000.

• The 841 Avenue Overlay Project started in the middle of September and is expected to be finished by mid -October.
It is a combination of stormwater improvements plus 2-inch-grind overlay. It is a half -mile section between 2201
and 212t' Streets.
• The Five Corners Reservoir Recoating Project was completed this year.
• The Dayton Street Utility Improvement Project is in progress. They are currently paving Dayton from 3rd to 5t1i
Avenues, and all of the utilities within that segment are being replaced. The final pavement work will be done on
Friday if weather permits. There will be a break in activity, and the project will resume in March on the segment
between 5t' and 9r' Avenues.
• Phase 1 of the Seaview Infiltration Project was completed this summer and was funded by a State grant. The
infiltration facility was installed in Seaview Park, itself, and collects stormwater off the Perrinville system and
infiltrates it into the ground. The goal is to minimize the impact to the Perrinville system and the existing creek.
The cost of the project was about $350,000.
Mr. English also shared highlights of 2020 Projects:
• The 2020 Pavement Preservation Program will be funded at $1.2 million, which should provide for about 3 lane
miles of street overlay.
• The Citywide Pedestrian Crossing Project is funded with federal dollars and will upgrade safety at nine intersections
in the City, primarily by upgrading pedestrian ramps and installing rapid flashing beacons at crossings. A Hawk
Signal will be installed at the intersection of SR-524 and 81 Avenue, similar to the HAWK signal on SR-104 near
City Park.
• The Highway 99 Revitalization Project will continue to go forward in 2020 using State funding. The corridor study
has been completed and the City learned that the cost of upgrading Highway 99 with all of the streetscape and safety
improvements would be well over $100 million, and the State's allocation was only $2 million. The City is working
to pick the low -hanging fruit, installing center medians and taking out some of the turn lanes along the corridor to
improve safety at high accident intersections. Staff will continue its work to secure additional grant funding to move
other elements of the project forward.
• The Dayton Street Walkway Project is also grant funded and part of the Main Street to 9t' Avenue Improvement
Project. The portion between 5t' and 9r' Avenues will be constructed in 2020, and the portion between 3rd and 5t'
Avenues is currently in progress.
• REET funding will be used for the Pedestrian Safety Program, which started last year and is proposed to continue in
2020. Projects include flashing beacons at 31 Avenue and Bell Street, a project that was funded in 2019. The
equipment has been purchased but hasn't been installed.
• Several Traffic Signal Upgrades will be done in 2020. They will make several improvements to the existing control
cabinets on Highway 99, and the program will continue into 2020 with improvements to signal detections.
• The Guardrail System Program will continue into 2020, with replacement of existing guardrails that need upgraded
and adding new guardrails in areas where they are needed.
• The Traffic Calming Program has been in place for several years and will be funded with REET dollars in 2020.
• The Dayton Street Utility Improvement Project will resume in March on the segment between 5' and 9r' Avenues.
With the exception of the sewer line, all other utilities will be replaced. The existing sewer line will be refurbished
with a cured -in -place pipe process, which is less costly.
• The Water Utility Replacement Program will continue and the plan is to replace over 1,000 feet of watermain,
including the work that is part of the Dayton Street Program. They will also overlay about .35 lanes miles of street,
and most of that work is related to the Dayton Street Project.
• The Stormwater Utility Program will replace 4,900 feet of pipe.
• The Willow Creek Daylight Project will continue, with $750,000 identified for design.
• Phase 2 of the Seaview Infiltration Facility Project will be another infiltration facility that adds capacity to the one
that was completed in 2019.
• The Ballinger Regional Facility Project is a predesign project that the City is evaluating the potential of building a
new infiltration facility in Mathay Ballinger Park to try and minimize the impact of stormwater runoff on Lake
Ballinger.
• The Paramount Creek Flow Management Project will continue to look for opportunities to install raingardens within
the drainage basin to reduce runoff into the system.

• The Sewer Utility Program will replace 2,500 feet of sewer main and rehabilitate 6,300 feet of sewer pipe using the
cured -in -place method, overlay 0.35 lane miles of street affected by sewer main replacement, and complete the Lake
Ballinger Sewer Trunk Study.
• Design will start on the Pyrolysis Project at the Sewer Treatment Plant in 2020.
Ms. Burley noted that most of the park projects identified in the CIP and CFP fall within the Parks, Recreation and Open
Space Plan. She shared highlights of 2019 projects:
• The first inclusive playground in the City was installed this year at Seaview Park.
• All of the tennis courts at Seaview Park were refinished and the restroom was refurbished.
• The Olympic Beach Restrooms were completely revamped. The project was scoped to be done by a contractor, but
it ended up being done in house by City staff. This resulted in a significant savings, and the project turned out nice.
• The Fishing Pier Rehabilitation Project is ongoing. Staff believes they found a solution, and they are working to put
together the pieces to float the labor underneath to seal it up. They are optimistic the project will be completed in
2020.
• The City Park Walkway Project will happen this fall and includes widening the exit to allow for better pedestrian
access. The work will be completed in house by a parks crew.
• Design work is complete for the Gateway Sign Project.
Next, Ms. Hite shared highlights of the proposed 2019 projects:
• Civic Park was designed in 2019. The City has secured funding necessary to build the park, including a $2 million
request from the 2020 budget. The $2 million request originally included $500,000 from the general fund, but that
is no longer needed. The entire $2 million will be funded with balances in the various park funds, including the Park
Impact Fee and REET funds. Everything associated with issuing the bonds has been completed. She summarized
that $3.1 million of the project funding is in carry-over funds, $3.7 million bonds, and $3.4 million grants. The goal
is to get to 90% design in December and submit for permits in November of this year. This will enable the City to
issue a Request for Proposals in February or March of 2020 and break ground in the spring. Construction is
expected to take one year to complete. The Parks staff is working diligently on solutions to handle the ground water
and address the high-water table. The grade needs to be raised significantly enough to allow water to dissipate and
for the drainage system to be above the current grade but below the new grade. They are also working to address
water mitigation, which is incredibly difficult in addition to taking care of the onsite water. They are exploring
options at Yost Park, which is in the same watershed, just upstream. There is potential to do some water infiltration
at Yost Park, which will provide four mitigation credits for the Civic Park Project.
• The Marina Beach Park Project will continue in 2020 and go hand -in -hand with the Willow Creek Daylighting
Project. The Park needs to be designed simultaneously. RCO grants are coming up in 2020, and the design money
will be spent to get the project to a place where they can submit confidently for grants for the project. They plan to
submit three grant applications for this particular project.
• Funding was included to support ongoing maintenance and repair at Yost Pool. In 2020, replacing and rehabilitating
the pool grates will be the largest maintenance project. They will also replace the acid/chlorine injector and the pool
cover.
• The 41 Avenue Cultural Corridor is a significant project that will take longer than some people like. The estimated
cost to design the project is about $350,000, and $50,000 has been spent to date. Another $100,000 is allocated in
2020 to continue the design work. Design is critical for the City to secure grant funding. To get much further, they
will also need to identify some funding sources.
• The City has identified a 1-acre parcel for a Community Garden. They had hoped to purchase it in 2019, but the
Purchase and Sale Agreement still hasn't been finalized. The funds will be rolled into the 2020 CIP.
• The City has plans for two outdoor fitness zones, one of which was programed in 2019. They were unable to get to
the project, so both are now programmed in 2020. One will be at Civic Park and the other at Mathay Ballinger Park.
The City received grant funding for the projects.
• The Waterfront Redevelopment Project will continue in 2020. About half of the funding for the project was
programmed in 2019 and the remaining half in 2020. This is not really a funding request; it is just a carryover of the
budget that was identified in 2019.

Ms. Burley advised that the draft CIP and CFP also include a list of projects that go out beyond the 2020 timeline, such as
relatively minor park improvements, ongoing maintenance, etc.
Mr. English summarized that staff started development of the capital budgets in July and proposals were submitted to the
Finance Department in August and September so that the draft CIP and CFP could be prepared. A public hearing before the
Planning Board is scheduled for October 23'. Following the hearing, the Board will be asked to forward a recommendation
to the City Council. The plans will be presented to the City Council on November 4', and the Council will hold a public
hearing on November 121. It is anticipated the City Council will adopt the plans before the end of December.
Board Member Crank asked if the 234' Street/Highway 99 Traffic Signal Project would be done in tandem with the housing
project that is supposed to take place at that intersection. Mr. English answered no. The traffic signal is part of a grant the
City secured a few years ago for safety improvements and it is not tied to the housing development.
Board Member Monroe requested more information about the $6.5 million that is identified in the CIP for professional
service fees over the next five years. Mr. English responded that building maintenance is managed by the City's Facilities
Manager. The allocation is intended to show the needed funding to maintain the facilities, and it won't necessarily all be
used to fund engineering and design. It probably should be distributed to both construction and professional services, but the
intent is to identify the dollar amount that needs to be programmed each year to maintain the City's facilities.
Board Member Monroe noted that no funding is identified for traffic calming. Mr. English responded that the Traffic
Calming Program was funded by the 112 Fund through 2019 via a General Fund contribution. Starting in 2020, the program
will be funded with the REET 125 Fund at an amount of $15,000.
Board Member Monroe asked Mr. English to explain the process for adding projects to the table on Page 187 of the Staff
Report. Mr. English explained that there are several components that factor into when projects are added. The City Council
has the ability to add projects, and staff can recommend projects to the City Council. Projects may be added because of
maintenance reasons or because the City has an opportunity for grant funding. Citizen can also recommend projects. The
projects on the list on Page 187 are new projects that were added throughout 2019 for potential funding.
Chair Cheung requested an update on the Waterfront Walkway Project. Ms. Burley answered that the City is still in
litigation. Chair Cheung asked how the delay will impact the Waterfront Redevelopment Project. Ms. Burley answered that
while a few permits are connected, the projects are separate. They have cleared all of the milestones for the Waterfront
Redevelopment Project and it will move forward. The City will continue with litigation on the connecting Waterfront
Walkway.
Student Representative Bryan said he had fun looking through all of the proposed sidewalk additions. He said he runs cross
country for the high school, and he and his team run about 8 miles per day throughout the community. While he sees clear
reasoning for many of the proposed projects, there were others where there is already a wide shoulder and very little
vehicular traffic. He said he would prefer not being confined to a little sidewalk in these locations. He asked Mr. English to
speak to the criteria that is used to identify projects for the CFP and CIP. Mr. English responded that a number of factors are
considered when selecting projects for the CIP and CFP, including the Comprehensive Plan, which includes the
Transportation Plan that is updated every six years. Updating the Transportation Plan involves a public process where the
City seeks input from the public on potential projects. A citizen committee is formed to evaluate and rank the projects. In
2015 the committee reviewed a long list of potential sidewalk projects that were categorized and ranked. The final list
provides the basic groundwork for what shows up in the transportation section of the CFP. The priorities also help staff
identify projects to seek funding for. He emphasized that there isn't a lot of funding. The capital program for streets is only
$150,000, as most of the REET funding goes towards preservation work and parks projects. They have a long list of needs
relative to walkway projects but a shortage of funding. The City's Transportation Engineer has been very successful in the
past securing grant funding. Student Representative Bryan summarized that a major part of the prioritization is based on
citizen input in monetary form. Mr. English explained that grants are typically issued by the Federal or State Government.
Board Member Cloutier referred to the 196' Street/88' Avenue Intersection Improvement Project, noting that the
recommendation for a signal in that location is based on a model that was done in 2009. He suggested that perhaps they
Planning Board Minutes
October 9, 2019 Page 10
Packet Pg. 179
7.1.d
should review the improvement as a potential roundabout instead of yet another signal. He said he loves the roundabout at
Five Corners. Mr. English advised that this project has a long history. It doesn't meet warrants for a signal, and that's why a
signal has not been installed. One of the challenges with using a roundabout in that location is the line of sight and the
inability to see all of the different movements within a roundabout. It will be a challenge on whatever improvement is built
at the intersection, and he agreed that a roundabout should be one of the options considered.
Board Member Cloutier suggested they also consider a roundabout at the intersection of Main Street and 9' Avenue. Mr.
English advised that, if the City is able to secure funding for improvements at that intersection, a roundabout would definitely
be one of the options considered.
Chair Cheung pointed out that traffic backs up at the Intersection of 761 Avenue and 1961 Street. At certain times, traffic
backs up on 76r'', and he has witnessed several accidents when people try to turn left out of the QFC parking lot. He asked if
the intersection is in Lynnwood or Edmonds. Mr. English answered that the intersection is controlled by the City of
Lynnwood, and he can take the concern to the City's Traffic Engineer to pass on to the City of Lynnwood. Chair Cheung
asked if it would be possible to widen 76' Avenue as it approaches the intersection. Mr. English responded that the
Edmonds portion of 76t1i Avenue is south of the QFC, but it becomes Edmonds again north of the intersection. Again, he
agreed to pass on the concern. However, he acknowledged that doing a widening project at the intersection would be very
costly. Perhaps they could look at the operation of the signal to see if anything can be done with channelization to address
the concern.
Vice Chair Robles referred to the SR-104/951 Place West Intersection Improvement Project and asked what participation the
State would have and how much empathy they have for what is going on at the four corners of the intersection where more
population density is planned. He asked what $420,000 would buy to mitigate for all that is going on at that intersection.
Mr. English pointed out that the 2281 Street Improvement Project would tie into the improvements at this location because it
will provide direct access to the transit station in Mountlake Terrace. When they get to the stage of improving 2281 Street,
they could potentially redesign the intersection to make it function better in both its connection to residential communities
and the transit station. He acknowledged that the $420,000 shown in the CIP will not solve the problem. The scheduled
improvements are just trying to improve access management at the intersection by putting in C curbs, creating ramps at
intersections, and improving pedestrian safety at crossings. He agreed to forward Vice Chair Robles' question to the
Transportation Engineer with a request to provide more information about the scope of the improvements.
Vice Chair Robles asked if future problems at the intersection could be blamed on inactivity on the part of the City because it
failed to attend to the issues. Mr. English said there is nothing on the near horizon for doing any city -sponsored work at the
intersection. However, there is a private development on the south side of SR-104 that could result in some changes to
access. Vice Chair Robles asked if there is a proposed action that involves all four corners of the intersection, or just two
corners. Mr. English said there is an active proposal for the south side, but he isn't sure about the status of the north side.
Chair Cheung said he likes the crosswalk light on 212r' Street near the high school. He asked if they are expensive to install.
Mr. English said they cost between $15,000 and $20,000 per system. Chair Cheung suggested that the City consider
providing the systems around schools where there is heavy pedestrian traffic. Mr. English agreed and said the Traffic
Engineer is always looking for opportunities to install the systems. He noted that a system would be added on 84r' Avenue as
part of a project that is currently under construction, and another would be added at the intersection of 3rd Avenue and Dayton
Street. In addition, seven of the nine locations included in the Citywide Pedestrian Safety Improvement Program will have
rapid flashing beacons added at the crosswalks.
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AMENDMENT REGARDING HOUSING IMPLEMENTATION (REFERRED FROM
THE CITY COUNCIL)
Mr. Chave explained that there are various implementation actions in the Comprehensive Plan relative to housing. One in the
Housing Element talks about developing a Housing Strategy by 2019. He recalled that the City considered a Housing
Strategy at the end of 2018, but the City Council elected not to adopt it. Instead, they formed a Housing Commission.
Because the Commission's work is scheduled to take place during 2019 and 2020, the Council felt it was appropriate to
modify the related implementation action that identified 2019 as the date for developing the Housing Strategy. Council -
adopted Resolution 1420 identified two options to consider as ways to amend the implementation action in the plan, and staff
Planning Board Minutes
October 9, 2019 Page 11
Packet Pg. 180
7.1.d
has also identified a third option. He explained that the first two options were developed by the Council by resolution prior
to the establishment of the Housing Commission. Option 3 was developed by staff in response to the Housing Commission
being started. It reads, "Provide housing policy options by the end of 2020 for City Council consideration. " He noted that the
Housing Commission's work is supposed to be done by the end of 2020. Staff s recommendation is that the Board choose
one of the three options to forward to the city Council so that the Comprehensive Plan can be appropriately updated.
Board Member Monroe asked what happens if they get to the end of 2020 and the work has still not been completed. Would
they have to go through the same process again to amend the Comprehensive Plan to change the date to 2021. Mr. Chave
answered affirmatively. Board Member Monroe suggested that a better approach would be to use the language in Option 2,
but eliminate the date. The amendment would read, "Develop a strategy for increasing the supply of affordable housing and
meeting diverse housing needs.
Board Member Crank said her understanding was that the City Council determined that the Housing Commission would
sunset at the end of 2020. If the recommendation exceeds that date, it could get push back because it goes beyond what the
City Council has already identified as a sunset date. Board Member Monroe said his suggestion was to eliminate the date
entirely.
Mr. Chave advised that a public hearing on the proposed amendment is scheduled for October 23ra
REVIEW OF EXTENDED AGENDA
Chair Cheung reviewed that the Board's October 23ra meeting agenda will include a Housing Commission Update, a public
hearing on the 2020 — 2025 CIP/CFP and a public hearing on the Comprehensive Plan amendment regarding housing
implementation. The November 13' meeting agenda will include a presentation on potential amendments to the Commercial
Waterfront Zone to allow lodging or hotels as permitted uses, a presentation and potential amendments to the unit lot
subdivision application procedure, and an update on the Vision 2050 Multicounty Planning Policies. The December 11'
meeting agenda will include a public hearing on potential amendments to the Commercial Waterfront Zone to allow lodging
or hotels as permitted uses, and a public hearing on potential amendments to the unit lot subdivision application procedure.
The November 27t1i and December 25t' meetings were cancelled.
The Board agreed to add "Election of 2020 Officers" to the November 13' agenda. Board Member Rosen recalled that, at
their last meeting, the Board reviewed a list of agenda items that they hoped could be placed on the extended agenda. The
agenda items were identified in the Board's discussions with the City Council at the joint meeting. Chair Cheung said he
would like to work with the 2020 Planning Board Officers and staff to schedule the items into the 2020 agenda. The Board
agreed that the items should be listed as "pending" on the next Extended Agenda.

DEVELOPMENT SERVICES DIRECTOR REPORT TO PLANNING BOARD
Chair Cheung referred the Board to the Development Services Director's Report that was provided in the packet. There were
no comments or questions from the Board.
PUBLIC HEARING ON THE PROPOSED 2020 - 2025 CAPITAL FACILITIES PLAN (CFP)/ CAPITAL
IMPROVEMENT PLAN (CIP)
Mr. English explained that the Capital Facilities Plan (CFP) is required by the Growth Management Act to identify long-term
capital needs to address the City's growth. It covers a planning horizon of 6 and 20 years with projects to address level of
service (LOS), safety and transportation. The CIP is organized by the City's financial funds and includes projects in the next
6-year planning horizon. The two plans intersect when identifying the 6-year capital projects with funding sources.
Mr. English explained that projects are added to the CFP and CIP based on adopted elements of the City's Comprehensive
Plan. The Parks, Recreation and Open Space (PROS) Plan, the Transportation Plan and Utilities Plans all go through
extensive public processes of updating and establishing policies and goals. The CIP is tied to the City's budget and several
funds make up the overall document:
• Fund 112 is a Transportation Fund that is managed by the Public Works Department. It is funded via grants and the
gas tax.
• Fund 125 is a Capital Projects Fund that is managed by both the Public Works and Parks, Recreation and Cultural
Services Departments. It is funded by the Real Estate Excise Tax (REET).
• Fund 126 is a Special Capital Project and Parks Acquisition Fund that is managed by both the Public Works and
Parks, Recreation and Cultural Services Departments. It is also funded by REET.
• Fund 332 is a Parks Construction Fund that is managed by the Parks, Recreation and Cultural Services Department.
It is funded by grants.
• Fund 421 is the Water Utility Fund that is managed by the Public Works Department.
• Fund 422 is the Stormwater Utility Fund that is managed by the Public Works Department.
• Fund 423 is the Sewer and Wastewater Treatment Fund that is managed by the Public Works Department.
Mr. English shared highlights of 2019 Fund 112 Projects:
• The $1.8 million Pavement Preservation Program was a key part of the program for maintaining City streets. In
2019, the City overlaid 6.5 lane miles and 13 new Americans with Disabilities (ADA) ramps were added using
funding from the Street Overlay Program and the Utility Programs.
• The 89' Place Retaining Wall Project was funded with REET dollars. The project is on a small cul-de-sac street.
The existing wall was failing and causing the street to settle and slope away. The rockery was replaced with a
mechanically stabilized earth (MSE) wall and the project was completed last spring at a cost of about $125,000.
• The 84' Avenue Overlay Project started in the middle of September. It is a combination of stormwater
improvements plus a 2-inch-grind overlay on a half -mile section between 220' and 212' Streets. The project
includes replacing 17 curb ramps to be ADA complaint, and it is likely the overlay portion of the project will extend
into 2020. The overlay portion of the project was funded by a federal grant the City received a few years ago, and
only a small local match was required.
• The Five Corners Reservoir Recoating Project was completed this year. The older 1.5-million-gallon tank presented
a lot more challenges that required additional budget appropriation, but work on the 3-million-gallon tank went
smoothly. The project cost was close to $4 million.
• The Dayton Street Utility Improvement Project is in progress. They are currently paving Dayton from 3' to 5"
Avenues. The project includes replacement of 1,200 feet of water main, 1,200 feet of storm pipe, and 1,300 feet of
sewer pipe, followed by a complete reconstruction of the street. There will be a break in activity, and the project
will resume in March on the segment between 5" and 9`h Avenues.
• Phase 1 of the Seaview Infiltration Project was completed this summer and was funded by a State grant. An
infiltration facility was installed to take stormwater off the Perrinville system and infiltrate it into the ground. The
Planning Board Minutes

goal is to minimize the impact to the Perrinville system and the existing creek. The cost of the project was about
$350,000.
Mr. English also shared highlights of 2020 Projects:
• The 2020 Pavement Preservation Program will be funded at $1.1 million, which should provide for about 3 lane
miles of street overlay.
• The Citywide Pedestrian Crossing Project is funded with federal dollars and will upgrade safety at 7 intersections in
the City, primarily by upgrading pedestrian ramps and installing rectangular rapid flashing beacons at crossings. A
Hawk Signal will be installed at the intersection of SR-524 and 8" Avenue, similar to the HAWK signal on SR-104
near City Park.
• The Highway 99 Revitalization Project will continue to go forward in 2020 utilizing a $10 million state grant. The
corridor study has been completed and the City learned that the cost of upgrading Highway 99 with all of the
streetscape and safety improvements would be well over $100 million. The City is now taking a different approach
going forward, installing center medians and taking out some of the turn lanes along the corridor to improve safety
at high accident intersections. Staff will continue its work to secure additional grant funding to move other elements
of the project forward.
• The Dayton Street Walkway Project is also grant funded and part of the Main Street to 9`E' Avenue Improvement
Project. The portion between 5tn and 9" Avenues will be constructed in 2020, and the portion between 3' and 5"
Avenues is currently in progress.
• REET funding will be used for the Pedestrian Safety Program, which started last year and is proposed to continue in
2020. Projects include flashing beacons at 3' Avenue and Bell Street, a project that was funded in 2019. The
equipment has been purchased but hasn't been installed.
• Several Traffic Signal Upgrades will be done in 2020. They have made a lot of progress over the last three to four
years and work will continue into 2020.
• The Guardrail System Program will continue into 2020, with replacement of existing guardrails that need upgraded
and adding new guardrails in areas where they are needed.
• The Traffic Calming Program has been in place for several years and will be funded with REET dollars in 2020. In
previous years, the program was funded via the 112 Fund.
• The Dayton Street Utility Improvement Project will resume in March on the segment between 5" and 9" Avenues.
With the exception of the sewer line, all other utilities will be replaced. The existing sewer line will be refurbished
with a cured -in -place pipe process, which is less costly.
• The Water Utility Replacement Program will continue and the plan is to replace over 8,000 feet of watermain,
including the work that is part of the Dayton Street Program. They will also overlay about .35 lanes miles of street,
and most of that work is related to the Dayton Street Project.
• The Stormwater Utility Program will replace 4,900 feet of pipe.
• The Willow Creek Daylight Project will continue, with $750,000 identified for design. An update on the project
was recently provided to the City Council.
• Phase 2 of the Seaview Infiltration Facility Project will be another infiltration facility that adds capacity to the one
that was completed in 2019.
• The Ballinger Regional Facility Project is a predesign project that the City is evaluating the potential of building a
new infiltration facility in Mathay Ballinger Park to try and minimize the impact of stormwater runoff on Lake
Ballinger.
• The Perrinville Creek Flow Management Project will continue to look for opportunities to install raingardens within
the drainage basin to reduce runoff into the system.
• The Sewer Utility Program will replace 2,500 feet of sewer main and rehabilitate 6,300 feet of sewer pipe using the
cured -in -place method, overlay 0.35 lane miles of street affected by sewer main replacement, and complete the Lake
Ballinger Sewer Trunk Study.
• Design will start on the Pyrolysis Project at the Sewer Treatment Plant in 2020.
Ms. Burley noted that most of the park projects identified in the CIP and CFP fall within the Parks, Recreation and Open
Space Plan. She reminded them of the decision criteria that goes into choosing parks projects and then shared highlights of
2019 projects:
Planning Board Minutes

7.1.e
• The first inclusive playground in the City was installed this year at Seaview Park.
• All of the tennis courts at Seaview Park were refinished and the restroom was refurbished.
• The Olympic Beach Restrooms were completely revamped. The project was scoped to be done by a contractor, but
it ended up being done in house by City staff.
• The Fishing Pier Rehabilitation Project is ongoing and will likely extend into the spring of 2020. They have found a
solution and have submitted the final permits and designs.
• The City Park Walkway Project will happen this fall and includes widening the exit to allow for better pedestrian
access. The work will be completed in house by a parks crew.
• The Gateway Sign is currently being constructed.
Next, Ms. Burley shared highlights of the proposed 2020 projects:
• Civic Park was designed in 2019. The City has secured funding necessary to build the park, including a $2 million
request from the 2020 budget. The $2 million request originally included $500,000 from the general fund, but that
is no longer needed. The entire $2 million will be funded with balances in the various park funds, including the Park
Impact Fee and REET funds. Everything associated with issuing the bonds has been completed. She summarized
that $3.1 million of the project funding is in carry-over funds, $3.7 million bonds, and $3.4 million grants. The
project is currently at 50% design, and the goal is to get to 90% design in December and submit for permits in
November of this year. This will enable the City to issue a Request for Proposals in February or March of 2020 and
break ground in late spring or summer. Construction is expected to take one year to complete.
• The Marina Beach Park Project will continue in 2020 and go hand -in -hand with the Willow Creek Daylighting
Project. The proposed $30,000 will be used for design to prepare the project for grant applications in 2020. RCO
grants are coming up in 2020.
• Funding was included to support ongoing maintenance and repair at Yost Pool. In 2020, replacing and rehabilitating
the pool grates will be the largest maintenance project. They will also replace the acid/chlorine injector and the pool
cover.
• The 4" Avenue Cultural Corridor is currently in the design phase, and the estimated cost for design is about
$350,000. About $50,000 has been spent to date, and another $100,000 is allocated in 2020 to continue the design
work. Design is critical for the City to secure grant funding.
• The City has identified a 1-acre parcel for a Community Garden. They had hoped to purchase it in 2019, but the
Purchase and Sale Agreement still hasn't been finalized. The funds will be rolled into the 2020 CIP.
• The City has plans for two outdoor fitness zones, one of which was programed in 2019. They were unable to get to
the project, so both are now programmed in 2020. One will be at Civic Park and the other at Mathay Ballinger Park.
The City received grant funding for the projects.
• The Waterfront Redevelopment Project will continue in 2020. About half of the funding for the project was
programmed in 2019 and the remaining half in 2020. This is not really a funding request; it is just a carryover of the
budget that was identified in 2019.
Ms. Burley advised that the draft CIP and CFP also include a list of future projects that go out beyond the 2020 timeline, such
as relatively minor park improvements, ongoing maintenance, etc. The City will continue to set aside funds for future land
acquisition, as well.
Mr. English summarized that staff started development of the capital budgets in July and proposals were submitted to the
Finance Department in August and September so that the draft CIP and CFP could be prepared. The CIP and CFP were
presented to the Board at a workshop on October 9". Following the hearing tonight, the Board will be asked to forward a
recommendation to the City Council. The plans will be presented to the City Council on November 4t', and the Council will
hold a public hearing on November 12'. It is anticipated the City Council will adopt the plans before the end of December.
Board Member Crank asked about the schedule for 234r' Street/Highway 99 Traffic Signal Project. Mr. English answered
that the intent is to start the project in February or March of 2020, but the actual signal will not likely be activated until late
fall of 2020. Board Member Crank asked if the City will need to do a traffic study to identify the traffic patterns at the
intersection. Mr. English answered that the City was required to coordinate with the Washington State Department of
Planning Board Minutes

Packet Pg. 185
7.1.e
Transportation (WSDOT) and obtain approval for the project. There was some assessment on how the intersection would
operate from a Level of Service (LOS) standpoint, and WSDOT has approved the project.
Board Member Monroe asked if area equity was a factor in scoring and identifying projects for the CIP. Mr. English
explained that they rely heavily on the City's current planning documents and grant funding opportunities to identify
transportation projects for the CIP. The scope of the work plays a significant role in the City's ability to obtain grant funding,
so the City doesn't have a lot of ability to distribute capital projects based on area equity. However, on the preservation side,
they try to focus on different pockets of the City as the programs continue year to year. Ms. Burley said most parks projects
are related to maintenance, but the Parks, Recreation and Open Space (PROS) Plan looks at underserved areas where there
are no parks. From a land acquisition point of view, one of the first criteria is looking for areas that are underserved by parks.
Board Member Rubenkonig said that when she looked at the overview of projects, her initial sense was that more projects
will take place in the downtown area. However, she also recognized that this area is more densely populated. It is also
important to keep in mind that there are a large number of drainage basins throughout the City that must also be maintained.
It is important for the public to understand why the City needs to put money towards the highest and best uses. The need to
keep the drainage basins operating drives some of the necessary decision making.
Regarding transparency, Board Member Rubenkonig commented that it is important that citizens can understand the reports
and that they are laid out in a way that nothing appears to be hidden. They need to be written in a language that citizens can
understand. She said she enjoyed the information provided in the staff's presentation, particularly the information explaining
where the funding will come from. However, she would have liked the information to be on the slides provided for each of
the projects, too.
Board Member Rubenkonig asked if Parks projects are funded entirely by one fund. Ms. Burley answered that a significant
amount of the park funding comes from Real Estate Excise Taxes (REET) via the 125 and 126 funds. The 332 fund is the
grant exchange fund. Again, Board Member Rubenkonig said it would be helpful to show funding sources on the slides for
each project.
Student Representative Bryan asked if the traffic calming involves installation of speed bumps. Mr. English answered that
radar speed feedback signs are the primary approach for the traffic calming program. There are both pros and cons associated
with speed humps. While they do slow traffic, they tend to cause people to break and accelerate more, and this results in
increased noise in residential neighborhoods. They goal is to find other ways to solve speeding issues and speed humps are
the last resort. The signs have been effective and they try to rotate them into different areas. Student Representative Bryan
agreed that the radar speed signs are more effective than speed humps.
Vice Chair Robles asked where the proposed community garden would be located, and Ms. Burley answered that it would be
just east of the entrance to Yost Park. The one -acre parcel is being gifted to the City as part of a will; but in the meantime, it
is the owner's desire that the City build the community garden while she is still here to see it.
Vice Chair Robles commented that Meadowdale Field is being utilized in orders of magnitude greater than it was used
before. He said he is a strong advocate for creating and improving the social fabric of the City. He also commented that the
improvements at Seaview Park are beautiful. He said he appreciates all of the projects the Parks, Recreation and Cultural
Services Department and Public Works Department are able to accomplish each year. He asked if there are currently enough
staff resources. Mr. English reported that Public Works just filled a few vacancies, but they are still down one employee.
There are few large projects coming up in 2020, including Civic Park, Waterfront Redevelopment, and Wastewater
Treatment Plant. There are often constraints associated with managing the workload, and Public Works often hires
consultants to help manage the large projects.
Board Member Crank asked Mr. English to speak to whether or not the pedestrian crossing projects would also involve
lighting improvements or adjustments. She said she lives at 236" and Highway 99 where there have been numerous
accidents and lighting seems to be a factor. There are numerous types of lighting on Highway 99, but it still gets quite dark
in some locations. Mr. English said he is not familiar enough with the project designs to know if new street lighting will be
added, but his recollection is that there will just be some minor adjustments. Board Member Crank asked if flashing lights
could be added in the pavement, similar to what was done on 212" Street near the high school. Mr. English said the City is
Planning Board Minutes

7.1.e
steering away from that approach because they have had maintenance issues. The Citywide pedestrian improvement projects
will not have inground lights, but there will be lights on the side.
Board Member Rubenkonig recalled that during the Board's review of the CIP/CFP in 2018, Board Member Cheung
suggested that the City consider providing a covered area for pedestrians at Holmes Corner across the street from Edmonds-
Woodway High School. She also expressed the need for more design elements at that intersection. At that time, staff had
agreed to consider these two ideas. Mr. English agreed that it would be great to provide a covered pedestrian area at the
intersection, but from a funding standpoint, he is not sure the project would rank high enough to be included in the CIP.
Board Member Rubenkonig said she would still like to see what could be done to improve the intersection. She also voiced
concern about the lane channelization at the intersection as you head westbound on 76' Avenue. It seems to be unclear as to
where the turn lane starts and the lines are inconsistent with other intersections in the City. Mr. English agreed to pass this
concern on to the Traffic Engineer.
No one in the audience indicated a desire to participate in the public hearing, and the hearing was closed.
CHAIR CHEUNG MOVED THAT THE BOARD FORWARD THE DRAFT 2020 — 2025 CIP/CFP TO THE CITY
COUNCIL WITH A RECOMMENDATION OF APPROVAL. BOARD MEMBER MONROE SECONDED THE
MOTION, WHICH CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY.
PUBLIC HEARING ON COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AMENDMENT REGARDING HOUSING
IMPLEMENTATION (REFERRED BY THE CITY COUNCIL)
Mr. Chave explained that the Comprehensive Plan elements have implementation actions that indicate additional steps the
City intends to take to move forward goals and policies. One in the Housing Element talks about developing a Housing
Strategy by 2019. He reviewed that the City Council recently established a Housing Commission to study housing policy
issues. Because the Commission's work is scheduled to take place during 2019-2020, the City Council felt it was appropriate
to modify the related implementation action contained in the Housing Element, which identifies 2019 as the date for
developing a "Housing Strategy." They adopted Resolution #1420, which provides two options to consider as ways to amend
the implementation action in the plan. Given that the City Council recently created a Housing Commission that is scheduled
to sunset at the end of 2020, staff has also identified a third option. The issue was forwarded to the Planning Board for a
public hearing and recommendation. He reviewed the options as follows:
• City Council Option 1 — Delete the existing language in its entirety.
• City Council Option 2 — Amend the existing language to read, `Develop a strategy by 2020 for increasing the
supply of affordable housing and meeting diverse housing needs. "
• Staff Option 3 — Amend the existing language to read, `Provide housing -policy options by the end of 2020 for City
Council consideration. "
Mr. Chave said staff is recommending Option 3, as it best reflects where the City Council is at this point in time. Again, he
said the Housing Commission is set to sunset at the end of 2020, and it is supposed to forward its recommendations to the
City Council by that date.
Board Member Monroe asked if the implementation action item would have to be amended again in 2020 if the Housing
Commission does meet the deadline for presenting recommendations to the City Council. Mr. Chave responded that the
Housing Commission has a pretty definite date for completing its work and reporting back to the City Council by the end of
2020. There is some urgency to the Commission's agenda and actions, and it intends to meet that date. Board Member
Monroe summarized that because the Commission has a charter date of 2020, it might make sense to be silent on the date and
let the charter dictate the timeframe for the implementation action. Mr. Chave explained that implementation actions are
statements of intent, and having a date makes it clear that the action is important to move forward. It provides a milepost in
the plan that helps people understand the City's current priorities. While a date is not required, it would be helpful. Board
Member Monroe said his thought was that removing the date from the implementation action would eliminate the need to
change the Comprehensive Plan in two places if the City Council decides to extend the work of the Housing Commission
beyond 2020. He said he would also support Option 1, which would eliminate the implementation action item entirely.
Planning Board Minutes
October 23, 2019 Page 6
Packet Pg. 187
Mr. Chave explained that when the City Council adopted Resolution #1420, it hadn't yet created the Housing Commission
and staff created Option 3 in response the Commission's charter. Board Member Rubenkonig observed that even if the
Housing Commission presents its recommendations to the City Council by the end of 2020, the City Council may decide to
extend the Housing Commission's charter to allow them to do additional work. Mr. Chave agreed that is possible, but it is
more likely the City Council will find that the Housing Commission has accomplished its mission. At that time, the City
Council will determine the best approach for moving the recommendations forward.
Board Member Rosen observed that the City Council is looking for a recommendation from the Housing Commission. He
recalled that when the Planning Board met jointly with the City Council, they expressed a sincere desire to be an informal
part of the process. He questioned it if would be appropriate to recommend inserting a requirement for Planning Board
participation into the implementation action language. He reminded them that one of their responsibilities is to provide
recommendations to the City Council when they have strong opinions, and housing is one of those topics.
Vice Chair Robles said his impression at the joint meeting with the City Council was that the Planning Board was not to get
involved with the Housing Commission's work. He expressed his belief that the Housing Commission's timeframe will be
dictated more by public input and velocity. He questioned the ability to impose a limit on public input. He felt the process
should go as long as necessary to solicit input from as many citizens as possible. He concluded that the issues are not so
simple that they can be resolved in one year. There are so many factors emerging that can impact the final recommendations
and some sort of contingency plan should be in place.
Board Member Crank stressed the need to work smarter and not harder and authorize resources in the best way possible. The
worse -case scenario is that the Housing Commission and City Council decide to extend into 2021. If that is the case, Options
2 and 3 would require an additional amendment to change the date. She suggested that Option 1 might be the best solution
since it wouldn't require additional staff and Planning Board time to go through another public process to amend the
timeframe in the future if necessary.
Mr. Chave explained that most implementation actions in the Comprehensive Plan include general target dates that allow the
projects to be added to the work plans of the City Council and various City departments. Given that the Housing
Commission is intended to finish relatively soon, Board Member Crank said she would lean towards Options 1 or 2 to avoid
having to come back and spend time changing the date again.
Board Member Rosen said he supports giving the public a timeline for when an implementation action will be delivered.
However, they must recognize that conditions and information will change, necessitating the need for deadlines to be
adjusted. He said he supports the timeline, which sets up an expectation to the public and sends a signal to the City Council
that the project should not go on for an extended period of time.
Board Member Rubenkonig commented that Board Member Rosen brought up a good point about Planning Board
involvement in the process. Although both the City Council and staff have indicated that the Board would be involved in the
process at some point at the request of the City Council, she would like the Board Members to have an opportunity to provide
feedback and share their points of view. She asked if there is something more formal that would establish that the Housing
Commission would present its findings to the Planning Board for feedback prior to presenting their recommendations to the
City Council for action. Mr. Chave explained that the City Council established the Housing Commission to provide policy
options. Once the Housing Commission has completed its work and presented its recommendations, it will be up to the City
Council to decide the best approaches for implementation. Implementation strategies that require Comprehensive Plan and
Development Code amendments will be referred to the Planning Board.
Mr. Chave explained that the document that was prepared by a consultant and sent through the Planning Board for a public
hearing and recommendation to the City Council was a housing strategy and not an amendment to the Comprehensive Plan.
It was a set of potential ideas or actions the City could take to address housing needs. The City Council determined that it
wanted to have a more robust public process and discussion, and the Housing Commission was created to complete that task.
The Planning Board's role is to advise the City Council, but most of its work is related to codes and plans. The Housing
Strategy is different. Although it was run through the Planning Board initially, it was not a requirement. The project is
moving a different direction now. The idea of the process going forward is that the Housing Commission will provide the
City Council with a number of ideas and policies and then the City Council will decide the next steps. They may refer some
Planning Board Minutes

Packet Pg. 188
7.1.e
things back to the Planning Board (Development Code and Comprehensive Plan amendments), but the City Council could
elect to take action on certain items that do not require Planning Board input. The Planning Board's role moving forward
will depend on what the City Council decides to do. At this time, it is unclear exactly what that set of actions or referrals
might be. He suggested it would be prudent to wait for the Housing Commission to complete its task and report to the City
Council, and then the City Council can decide the next steps.
Denise Miller, Edmonds, said she is a member of the Housing Commission and there is no plan at this time to extend the
Commission beyond 2020. The Commission will provide periodic updates to the City Council, and the intent is to be very
transparent throughout the process. As the Commission gets into discussions about different ideas and policies, it is likely
that groups of Commissioners will be assigned to work on specific suggestions. The group is diverse and plans to take its
information out to different areas of the City. The goal is to involve all interested citizens in the discussion and make sure
that all information is made available to the public. No minutes will be prepared for the Commission meetings, but video
recordings will be available on the City's website. Again, she said the Commission will provide periodic updates to the City
Council and the Commission does not plan to go beyond the 2020 deadline. The idea is to get the work done and move on.
The Planning Board will not be precluded from getting involved, but its participation will depend on what the City Council
determines its role in the decision -making process should be.
Board Member Rosen asked if the Housing Commission would simply provide a list of options for the City Council to
consider or if it would provide a recommendation for specific policies and/or strategies. He pointed out that Option 2 calls
for developing a strategy and Option 3 calls for providing housing policy options. Mr. Chave said "policy options" means a
series of ideas that would logically lead to additional future actions. He does not anticipate that the Housing Commission
will be involved in writing code or doing the type of detailed work that the Planning Board is responsible to do. Instead, they
will provide a recommendation on the direction the City should go and address various housing needs and options. The
Housing Commission is not intended to dive into the specific details of the code. Instead, they are to recommend general
things the City should explore and expand upon to address housing issues. Strategies will take the general policies to the next
step of implementation. He summarized that the Housing Commission's recommendations will presumably lead to
Comprehensive Plan and Development Code amendments.
Vice Chair Robles suggested that Option 1 would provide the greatest flexibility and be more efficient. Commissioner
Monroe voiced concern that Option 3 extends beyond the scope of what the City Council asked the Board to do because it
redefines the scope of the Housing Commission. He said he support either Option 1 or Option 2.
Board Member Rubenkonig said she doesn't see much difference between Options 2 and 3; it is a simple matter of semantics.
She likes the idea of "providing housing policy options" as opposed to "developing a strategy for increasing the supply of
affordable housing and meeting the diverse housing needs." She said she is not opposed to including the 2020 date, and she
would also support additional language that emphasizes the Planning Board's desire to provide input.
Board Member Rosen said the record shows that, on multiple occasions throughout its review of the Housing Strategy, the
Planning Board talked about the public process being inadequate. Rather than being a power grab, the Planning Board was
the initial voice that the outreach program needed to be more robust. The City Council's decision to step back and form a
Housing Commission was good. What was not wrong in the original process is that the Planning Board was an important
part of the receptacle for hearing and processing ideas and concepts. That is part of the Planning Board's role, and that part
of the process should remain intact. The City Council's decision to form the Housing Commission was in response to citizen
input. They want to hear from the citizens without stacking the deck in any way, and the Housing Commission meets that
intent. However, he doesn't believe the Planning Board's involvement is any less important in the current process than it was
the first time around. The Planning Board should be part of the work, and it would make sense for the Planning Board and
Housing Commission to engage in joint conversations. While the Housing Commission would continue to report directly to
the City Council, the Planning Board could add value to the Housing Commission by providing valuable input.
BOARD MEMBER ROSEN MOVED THAT THE BOARD RECOMMEND OPTION 3, WITH ADDITIONAL
LANGUAGE TO READ AS FOLLOWS: "PROVIDE HOUSING POLICY OPTIONS BY THE END OF 2020 FOR
CITY COUNCIL CONSIDERATION, INCLUDING INPUT FROM THE PLANNING BOARD." VICE CHAIR
ROBLES SECONDED THE MOTION.

Board Member Crank questioned how the discussion got from simply changing the date of the implementation action to the
idea that the Planning Board would not be part of the process. The Planning Board has been part of the process up to this
point. She cautioned against making the latter statement. She said she cannot justify its inclusion because she doesn't see
how anything has changed.
Board Member Rosen commented that the additional language gets rid of the ambiguity. He recalled that the City Council
made it clear that it is a Housing Commission project and the Planning Board should stand down. The City Council and staff
have both indicated that the Planning Board would not be involved in the process until after the Housing Commission has
present its policy recommendations. The additional language indicates the Board's desire to be part of the Housing
Commission's process, and the City Council can decide whether to adopt it or not.
Student Representative Bryan said he would favor the inclusion of a date as part of the implementation action because it
provides more transparency and informs the public of what the plan is for the Housing Commission. Board Member Crank
concurred.
Board Member Crank asked if the proposed motion would imply that the Board's input is required before the Housing
Commission makes a recommendation to the City Council. She cautioned that requiring Planning Board input before
presenting a proposal to the Commission would add more time to the process. Board Member Rubenkonig clarified that it is
not the Planning Board's intent to be the judge and jury for the Housing Commission's recommendation. It is not the
Planning Board's role to give a stamp of approval to the Housing Commission's work.
Board Member Monroe commented that the Planning Board has been interested in the housing issue for a long time, and now
they are being told to step back. Board Member Rubenkonig said the Board was never told by the City Council or the
Development Services Director that they would be out of the loop. However, the Housing Commission will not be required
to consult with the Planning Board as it goes about its business.
THE MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY.
REVIEW OF EXTENDED AGENDA
Board Member Monroe pointed out that the Extended Agenda indicates that a Housing Commission Update was supposed to
have been on the October 231 agenda. Mr. Chave said the update will likely take place on November 13' and will be
provided by the Development Services Director.
Chair Cheung asked that "Election of Planning Board Officers" be added to the November 13' agenda. He also reminded
staff of the items the Planning Board wanted to add to the "Pending" list. Mr. Chave said he hasn't had a chance to formally
add the items to the extended agenda, but he would do so by the next meeting. Board Member Rosen suggested that Chair
Cheung review the extended agenda prior to the next packet being posted to make sure the items are included. Mr. Chave
said that may be tricky, depending on timing, but he agreed to try.
Board Member Rubenkonig recalled that, at the Planning Board's joint meeting with the Architectural Design Board (ADB),
there was some discussion about the two boards working together to update the detached accessory dwelling unit (ADU)
regulations. She noted that there are many illegal ADUs in the City, and they are at a place where the design criteria
currently in place prohibits property owners from providing such housing for family members. She is not suggesting that
policy changes be made, but the criteria could be updated.
Mr. Chave clarified that the current code does not allow detached ADUs, even for family members. However, ADUs that are
attached by a breezeway that meets the definition in the code are considered attached ADUs. Board Member Rubenkonig
suggested that perhaps it is time to reconsider the attachment criteria.
Mr. Chave said the current code contains general language that says if you are constructing an ADU, it needs to be done in
such a way that is consistent with the design of the existing house so it looks like one structure. That is as far as the
guidelines go. An ADU must resemble a single-family house. Board Member Rubenkonig asked if the ADU criteria is

7.1.e
generally left up to staff's interpretation, and Mr. Chave answered affirmatively. He explained that staff generally looks at
whether the ADU would have similar materials, colors, etc.
Board Member Rubenkonig asked if Mr. Chave sees potential for the Planning Board to work with the ADB to review the
ADU criteria. Mr. Chave said he isn't sure what the end result would be. Board Member Rubenkonig said the standards are
old and need to be updated. Mr. Chave explained that the most substantial changes would come after the Housing
Commission has presented its recommendations to the City Council and the City Council has indicated a desire to consider
detached ADUs. At that point, the Board would become involved in the process and would have an opportunity to identify
potential design parameters. For attached ADU's, which is all the code currently allows, it makes sense that they be required
to be designed consistent with the existing house. If the Board gets into discussions about detached ADUs at some point in
the future, they can consider the need for different types of design parameters; but right now, he is not sure it would be
beneficial to bring in the ADB to talk about the attached ADU regulations.
Board Member Rubenkonig asked if it would be beneficial to talk about good quality and what needs to be changed to update
the outdated codes. She said she was hoping the Board could be more proactive in laying the groundwork for future policy
changes. Mr. Chave cautioned against the Board going off on a tangent that does not ultimate relate to any policy choice the
City Council wants to make. Again, Board Member Rubenkonig expressed her belief that the current ADU codes are
outdated and she would like the Planning Board and ADB to look at the impact of a legal ADU for family members and its
criteria. She felt that some things could be better attended to in order to make ADU's more pleasing to the neighborhoods in
which they exist. She said she understands Mr. Chave's point of view, but she would rather be more proactive and do some
of the homework before being asked to consider potential policy changes.

Ordinance Amending the Interlocal Agreement with the Public Facilities District
Staff Lead: Scott James
Department: Administrative Services
Preparer: Scott James
Background/History
On November 4, 2002, the City of Edmonds, Snohomish County, Snohomish County Public Facilities
District and the Edmonds Public Facilities District (collectively the Parties) entered into an Interlocal
Agreement (ILA) for the development of the Edmonds Centre for the Arts.
The ILA included provisions from Washington State RCW that permitted the County PFD to impose a
sales and use tax, of which a portion is allocated to the Edmonds Public Facilities District (EPFD) through
December 2026. The Washington State Legislature amended this RCW and extended the time period for
PFD's to impose the sales and use tax through 2041.
Tonight's Addendum No. 2 incorporates the RCW 82.14.390 provisions for the County PFD's to impose a
Sales and Use Tax through 2041 and commits the County PFD to continue allocating a portion of the tax
to the EPFD.

Appeal of Court Order related to Firearm Safe Storage Ordinance
Staff Lead: Jeff Taraday
Department: City Attorney's Office
Preparer: Scott Passey
Background/History
The City Council adopted Ordinances 4120 and 4131 in 2018. These ordinances are now codified in
chapter 5.26 of the ECC. A lawsuit was brought against the City asserting that the safe storage and
unauthorized access provisions of ECC 5.26.020 and ECC 5.26.030 are preempted by the provision of
RCW 9.41.290. The Snohomish County Superior Court ruled on October 18, 2019 that ECC 5.26.020 (safe
storage) does violate the preemption provision of RCW 9.41.290. The court also ruled that the Plaintiffs
did not have standing to challenge ECC 5.26.030 (unauthorized access). A copy of the Court's order is
attached as Attachment A hereto. The City has thirty days from October 18, 2019 to file an appeal.
Staff Recommendation
That the City Council determine whether it would like to appeal the Court's order.

1-976 — LIMITING VEHICLE LICENSE FEES TO $30
Initiative 976 is frequently referred to as the "$30 car tab initiative," but it also proposes some
significant changes to other aspects of state and local government transportation systems, including the
repeal of the authority for city and counties to impose transportation benefit district (TBD) vehicle
license fees. According to the ballot measure summary:
This measure would repeal or remove authority to impose certain vehicle taxes and fees; limit
state and local license fees to $30 for motor vehicles weighing 10,000 pounds or less, except
charges approved by voters after the measure's effective date; base vehicle taxes on Kelley Blue
Book value; require regional transit authorities to retire bonds early where allowed; and either
reduce or repeal taxes pledged to bonds depending on whether bonds are retired by 2020.
If passed, this measure would significantly change how the state's transportation system generates
revenue. According to the Association of Washington Cities (AWC), if passed the initiative would do the
following:
• Limit motor vehicle license fees (car tab fees) to $30 per year;
• Repeal or reduce certain motor vehicle weight fees;
• Repeal the authority for TBDs to impose vehicle fees;
• Reduce electric vehicle fees to $30 per year;
• Repeal the 0.3% tax on motor vehicle retail sales;
• Require local motor vehicle excise taxes (MVETs) to be calculated using the Kelley Blue Book
base value of the vehicle;
• Conditionally repeal the Sound Transit 0.8% MVET, and;
• Require the retirement or refinancing of Sound Transit -related bonds.
Currently, cities have the authority to establish TBDs (chapter 36.73 RCW) for the purposes of acquiring,
constructing, improving, providing and funding transportation improvements. According to MRSC's List
of Transportation Benefit Districts, at least 109 cities have formed TBDs to fund local transportation
projects. TBDs are primarily funded through non -voted vehicle license fees or locally voted sales tax.
If 1-976 passes, the authority for TBDs to impose vehicle license fees would be eliminated.

OVERVIEW
The Downtown Parking Scoping Survey was conducted to
understand the community experience around the issues
of parking and access within the Edmonds downtown core
business district as a prelude to a formal parking study to ensure
community input was considered prior to embarking on a formal
consultant -based study.
The survey was administered online during the
period between July 24 and August 12, 2019. The
survey was intended to be a first step in identifying
the community's issues and ideas about parking in
the downtown. A total of 705 people responded.
GENERAL
An analysis of the results found that responses were
generally divided into two categories, one related
directly to the availability of vehicle parking and
the other related more broadly to people's access to
downtown.
Survey responses were varied. For example, some
people (31.5%) indicated they had little or no trouble
with parking downtown. Others (34.5%) perceived
parking as a significant problem, while 34.1% rated
parking as average.
Suggested solutions for improving access ranged
from fixing broken sidewalks to expanding options for
alternative transportation such as shuttles, bicycles,
and ride -share. For improving vehicle parking only,
solutions ranged from adding "tick marks "for on -
street parking to building a parking garage.
More details about the survey findings are contained
in the next section of this report.
METHODOLOGY
The survey was conducted through Survey Monkey,
based on questions developed by City staff to reflect
issues commonly raised by the community. The
survey consisted of ten questions. Four questions
were multiple-choice, four were multiple-choice with
an open-ended option, and four were open-ended.
Answers to open-ended questions were coded
based on topics raised, then quantified and briefly
summarized as to the general interest of the response.
In some cases where a specific topic generated
many comments, such as metered parking, an effort
was made to quantify whether the comment was
supportive or not supportive of the topic.
Unfiltered responses to open-ended questions are
shown in the appendix.

bike use for all users, especially kids.
Parking Requirements 39 Several requests to re-evaluate parking requirements for

Drop Off Zones - Need short term drop off zones for ride

Motorcycle Parking - Designated motorcycle parking
would keep motorcycles from taking up an entire parking
space.
32 Questions - Many comments were in the form of questions.
(5.7%) Does revenue from permit fees and tickets cover costs of
enforcement? How can we track ferry riders who leave
their vehicles parked for extended periods of time? Is
enforcement sufficient to encourage turnover?
Level of Enforcement - Some feel that parking should not
be enforced over the weekend. Others want to see parking
violations more strictly enforced.
33 Satellite parking with trolley service is an interesting
(5.9%) idea. Main selling points are consistent, frequent, and
dependable service to various areas of the City. A variety of
locations were suggested for service: Westgate, Perrinville,
Firdale, Hwy 99, Five Corners, waterfront, downtown core,

A few commenters mentioned that they would accept
metered parking if money collected went into street

Some question whether a Parking Study is warranted,
noting that parking is almost always available within
a reasonable distance and the perceived parking issue

Active Transportation
16
General feeling that walkability is what makes Edmonds
(5.2%)
special and that adding parking will simply induce
more traffic. This would increase the feeling of density
and take away from the charm. Some would like to see
pedestrians more prioritized, such as making some
streets in the core pedestrian -only.
Bike share could help when bus service lags. Any bike
share program should consider requiring bikes to be
docked at designated locations to prevent cluttered
sidewalks.

other, would free up those spots. Even on the busiest days in town, there is almost always parking
available at by the police station. Please do not meter parking -don't turn Edmonds into Ballard!

Open-ended Response
153 Saturday market days and Thursday and Friday during Happy Hour
154
I work near 6th and Sprague and have to street park weekdays for work. Parking in Sprague is always
spares but, When there are events at the civic center field or the center for the arts parking on 6th and
the neighboring streets gets really bad. And during pickup hours for the school year parents going
into the boys and girls club often don't follow parking laws because parking close to the civic center
gets so bad.

Question 4: When do you tend to experience the greatest challenges in parking?
Open-ended
266
Response
I'm partially blind but can legally drive, but parking in tight spots and almost any parallel parking is
really difficult for me. I love the wider, marked parallel spots on main when I can get one, but most
days/times there's nothing I can manage, so I park at the library, or in the ev spot (I have a Leaf). If an
event is happening and I suspect that the library lots will be full too, I just don't go, or I try to get a ride.
For the art festival, I love that I can park at Edmonds Heights and take the bus, but I'll only do it Friday
morning.

In the downtown core itself (near fountain) while trying to visit a specific establishment, I usually have
to loop around the block several times before finding a suitable parking space. Parking is an issue
when trying to get several friends together for lunch or dinner, we usually pick a different location
with better parking, or its own parking lot.

During festivals and when local businesses use residential streets for employee/guest parking

Do to my disablility, I need handicap parking which Edmonds is lacking in. There are NO
Handicapping parking places on lower Main Street. I tend not going to downtown anymore because
of this. What a shame. This is making me think about moving. But no big deal, someone else will take
my place that doesn't need handicap parking. Shame on Edmonds.

also reduce the cost of parking enforcement.

Question 4: When do you tend to experience the greatest challenges in parking?
Open-ended
605
Response
We have a horrible issue that I have tried to hav e a conversation with the City Traffic Engineer about
commuter parking. This is particularly difficult around the City hall and 5-7th along Bell street There
are dozens of people who park their cars, commercial vehicles and commuter cars in that area because
there is not any control on that activity. You can watch the people park they are often the same day
after day, put on their backpack anbd they walk down to the ferry. That way they don't have to get in
line and can walk on the boat sucking up downtown Edmonds spaces daily and over the weekend. We
have engaged the City in this topic, and Mr Hauss put out a survey which we had to ask the results.
Apparently, we will get ticks in the parking boxes downtown to better show those parking (people
often turn 3 spots into 2 all day by not parkingefficently within those boxes) how to get the most out
of the spaces. Mr Hauss, told me and and associate that the City has more employees than it has
places to park them and that those of us that live downtown will be challenged parking downtown,
which happens to be where we are lucky enough to live. The survey asked those of us around City
Hall whether we wanted to pay for a parking permit (I already do) for the right to p[ark around our
homes, and the survey was vague enough that most weren't really interested ( I chatted with
neighbors and the comment was why should we pay the City for a permit when a downtown
employee is going to take that space anyway.

Will walk down from Maplewood and back sometimes during day but no way to get back up hill or be

Edmonds Landing on 2nd Ave South and that sidewalk literally in front of the entrance and all along

Open-ended Response
1 Would be nice if the City Employees Park by the waterfront area and either walk or have shuttle service
provided for them.
2
1 am concerned about parking problems from large events at the new Waterfront Center as well as the
Civic Playfield.
If there is a paid parking scenario, folks who live in Edmonds proper should not have to pay. We get so
3
many tourists in the summer and for events (which is great for our city) but also impactful to those of
us running daily errands.
4
No ugly eyesore of a garage! People need to be willing to walk more than a block or two at times....
good grief!
5
1 am handicapped and cannot walk or stand for very long. There are way too few handicapped parking
spots.
6
We need more handicap parking
7
The impact of special events and the impact of the new civic park
The intersection of 2nd Ave. South and Main St. is very dangerous. The paint is hard to see for
crosswalks and there are no flags. It has lots of traffic with ferry and drivers go fast - often don't stop
8
even when someone in the crosswalk. There are many new business coming in that intersection. Why
can't we have crosswalk flags or lights to have them slow down? Does someone need to be hit before
anything is done?
9
Look of the structure
Employees of downtown businesses should not have to move their cars every 3 hours this is very
10
disruptive to our workday and reduces our productivity when we have to constantly keep moving our
cars throughout the day.
11
more parking lots just encourage congestion in our little town. Trolleys would be very helpful with
pickups at locations such as Westgate, North of town, the waterfront
I think you would have many more people walking or biking into downtown Edmonds from the areas
12
directly surrounding it if there were safe ways to do so (sidewalks, marked crosswalks, traffic calming
devices).
13
Nobody knows to treat the fountain like a roundabout and I've seen people almost hit each other
going the wrong way around it countless times
14
If you are going to have employees parking on our residential street, please save some spaces just for
residents. We pay for a permit, but can't find parking sometimes!
15
Do people complain about parking because they cannot park immediately in front of the business
they are visiting?
I think you've come up with good ideas-1 think any business not open in the evening should allow
16
parking, also need more parking lots or beds, and shuttles -maybe from westgate chapel? to
downtown......
17
Employees using a lot of street parking. There could be an off site lot and shuttle
18
Possible resident stickers or areas?
19
Encourage employes to use parking that is more difficult for the average person to know it's available
20
Cost to Edmonds residents, increased CO2 emissions, changes in future transportation modes
People don't know how to park. They're not staying within parking lines. They leave huge gaps. And
21
there's just not enough parking spaces. If there was one parking garage, some of us willing to walk
longer distances would use it.

Question 7: Please list any issues or conditions you wish to make sure the Downtown
Parking Study takes into consideration:
Open-ended Response
More parking may mean even more people visiting -do we want/need that. Edmonds will not pay for
building free parking so grant funding will be necessary. Downtown is a Summer/Fall attraction -Winter
will not support sufficient customers to pay debt. Tourists on busses are easy to handle -just need a
22 remote location for busses to wait. Remote parking with shuttle will not be attractive -Edmonds is not
Disneyland -people can spend their money elsewhere on restaurants. Parking time limits should allow
time to conduct business and eat a meal. Too short limits defeat purpose of attracting people to
businesses.
23
Off street parking lot for short term parking up to 3 hours
24
More parking means more business and more money
25
none
26
If you are making more condos and apartments, you need parking spaces for each one in their own
building. Edmonds is full. No where to park.
Definitely the Employee parking downtown needs to be visually counted to really get the big picture
just how many there are. Do a survey of government and private employee parking habits and where
they park, how long. Parking passes can be used any time to go over the 3 hours so cars are not moved
all day. Public Transportation is so minimal and infrequent that it should be honest when looking at
that aspect of study. Civic Field, Edmonds movie theater, Rick Steves lectures, Farmers market,
27
Christmaarket, wine walks, festivals, etc there should be an option of adding a second level at the city
lot on 4th and Bell as would be right next to all activities and could be an option to add capacity if
employees are not parking somewhere else. Talk to people on the street and survey the businesses for
the study. Even have a quick survey the restaurants and stores can use to quickly gauge how difficult it
was for their customers to park and also how they got there, car walking, Uber, etc would be very
valuable.
28
Please don't build a massive parking garage. Maybe an underground garage if it is determined a
garage is needed. Also, please make sure new construction includes enough parking for residents.
29
lots of places to park, just walking a block or two
30
Don't charge, I don't go to mukilteo anymore because they charge for parking when it was hardly ever
an issue to find parking
31
Time restrictions and too high cost
32
Until assured of female safety I wouldn't ride or let daughter ride.
33
Enforce handicapped parking. That includes cars that straddle the space.
I am most concerned that clients and employees can get into and out of Edmonds easily and find a
34
place to park during the day. Secondarily it would be nice on the weekends if there is a convenient
spot for vacationers and visitors to be able to park and take the ferry (this needs to be more than 3
hours)
35
None at this time
designated areas such as libraries and parks should be used by their patrons not commuter parking.
36
expand downtown parking areas as much as possible. just now heard about the banks downtown
allowing after hours parking there and possibly churches -- this needs to be publicized better. I read
the local paper all the time and this is the first I have heard of it. thanks for all your efforts

Question 7: Please list any issues or conditions you wish to make sure the Downtown
Parking Study takes into consideration:
Open-ended Response
There is little to no provision for parking for "handicap" access. Although I can walk half a mile from
home, I can't think of any place downtown where it would be easy to take someone using a
wheelchair. (Not to mention how uneven the old sidewalks are --despite all the orange paint and
37 cement grinding.) If every other block had a handicap space at the beginning of the block, making it
easy to pull into and close to the corner curb cut, I think the spaces would be used, and the city would
hear far fewer complaints about "no parking". Enforcement needed to ensure use only by those with a
current handicap placard! Then we could be proud to become known as an accessible downtown
village, friendly to everyone from stroller to wheelchair.
38
Usually I go to shop so easier if I can park close and not carry large items around.
One block away a new building has gone up. Retail on the first floor and residential on the upper
floors. Residents have their own parking spaces in the lower garage of the building; however for doing
business at the bank and for it's employees they will need to find parking spaces for an already
39
overcrowded and unavailable parking spots. Next door to our building on south 2nd Ave there will be
another building going up soon. Where will anyone be able to park then??? There will be absolutely no
parking available to those who work off 2nd or 3rd Ave South. Edmonds needs to seriously consider
building at least one if not two multi level parking structures for Downtown parking.
40
Pedestrian safety
Love the small town feel. Leave it alone. Maybe meter parking. No garage. Down by the ferry parking is
41
premium. Lack of ferry parking is the real issue. Need more holding area for ferry lines and easier
access for locals to the beaches.
42
1 am not in favor of any parking "garages" either above or below ground. If you work downtown you
need to consider how to get to work as does your employer.
43
1 avoid getting things downtown when I just need to grab something quickly because I know I will
have to find parking
44
We that live outside the bowl pay taxes also, but get ignored. How about spending some of our tax
money outside the bowl.
45
More parking that is well sized and not parallel parking
46
Don't make parking more challenging for downtown residents
47
People should be willing to walk more
48
There are insufficient bike lanes and bike -friendly options to make bike use in Edmonds a positive
experience. This is reflected in how few bicyclists are seen in the town.
49
Only being able to park for three hours at a time is hard when youre down for the day doing different
things.
50
Very few handicap parking spots
51
It's not just about creating more parking spots, the spots need to be easy to park in, especially as our
population ages. Angled parking spaces are better than parallel spots.
52
None
53
Would like to see expansion of parking spot dividing lines for street parking. Consider a parking
garage by the train station
54
Don't pay for a study. Just use some conmen sense and listen to suggestions residents have.
55
Low cost rates for any parking facilities Time limits long enough to see a movie or concert

Question 7: Please list any issues or conditions you wish to make sure the Downtown
Parking Study takes into consideration:
Open-ended Response
I can always find parking within 2-3 blocks of where I'm headed downtown. It may not be directly in
front of the store or restaurant I'm going to, but I am totally able to walk a couple of blocks. My
56 concern relates to the continued construction of new buildings in or near the downtown core that
don't have parking or adequate parking. Examples include the upcoming Graphite Building and the
new apartments that have gone in recently. Developers should be required to supply at least some off
road parking.
57
Please leave it as is I have lived here my entire life and I have never had any issues parking or
navigating Edmonds
Something needs to be done about permit parking - have all downtown street in the bd 1-3 zone
58
permit free. Also multiple tickets should be given when it is obvious some has parked on street and
taken a ferry. Lobby heavily for most of that $30mm that WSDOT/Sounder has for parking as it's an
Edmonds and Mulkiteo share. Create parking structure with that $30mm
59
If you are pushing tourist trade, then give them a parking place, but away from the center of town, and
far away from our beaches. I'd suggest East of the city, with shuttles to downtown.
60
Don't spend money on outside consultant. Stop wasting our money.
61
Maintain 3 hr. parking, and no charges for parking, i.e., parking meters.
62
I understand that there is a hesitancy to give out parking tickets, but I believe people should be
ticketed if they abuse the parking limits.
63
Vibrating crosswalk signalers.
64
Please do NOT make a parking garage!!!!
The tic marks really helped parking. They were just the right size. Lots of times I see people leaving so
65
much space on roads that were not done where multiple cars could have fit easily had they all parked
in tic spots. I like that Edmonds doesn't have paid street parking.
66
I really like that banks open their lots during non -business hours. Great community businesses!!!
67
Majority of parking should be 2-3 hours.
68
More parking, while maintaining the quaint character of downtown
69
Exempting developers from providing adequate off-street parking for apartments/condos/houses is a
BIG mistake.
The Barclay shelton Dance Studio clientele make the area along Bell Street up to 5th Ave N very
70
treacherous. Parents are constantly blocking the Alley on both sides of the street, and taking business
parking spots. Young kids are running to and from vehicles without watching for traffic. Way too
much traffic for the number of parking stalls available in that part of the arts corridor.
There is development in apartments and housing and some new businesses downtown. Will this
71
contribute to more on street parking. Edmonds is a very nice destination for locals and visitors for
shopping, music, events and dining. Poor parking could impact all of these.
72
time to build a garage-- tall to the Port. Talk to WADOT. Plan scope with the ferry system (WADOT)
73
Will parking tickets be issued to visitors who park in one place, then use the summer trolley to get
around?
74
With all the construction finding parking can be difficult. Please consider local employees with parking
permits and give warnings instead of tickets, at least until construction is finished.

Open-ended Response
The City of Edmonds should work closely with Community Transit. I already have an ORCA Passport
and use it to commute to work in Seattle. I am also happy to use it on local CT buses (the 130) to come
into Edmonds on the weekend - however CT buses only run once an hour on Saturdays and Sundays.
That's inconvenient enough that I end up driving to downtown and parking. Or I take the bus but give
up and take a Lyft home later. Passenger load zones or dedicated handicapped parking spaces every
75 few blocks would be great - they could be used by Lyft/Uber drivers to help people get around
without parking or allow ADA folks to park closer to their destinations. I have no trouble parking in DT
Edmonds on any given day, however, I may have to park farther away from my destination because
there is no dedicated ADA parking on the street. That can be challenging if I'm not feeling well and am
unable to walk far that day. The City of Edmonds should also look at paid parking options for street
parking - it may encourage spaces to turn over more quickly. This would not impact ADA folks as
parking is free with a state issues parking pass.
76
there is no bus service north of 196th
77
More short-term parking allowing one to pop into a store for pick up
I do not support a large parking garage in downtown Edmonds. We should explore more offsite
parking and shuttling for events and stricter enforcement of parking laws and ticketing. We also need
78
to address the issue of safe sidewalks connecting the rest of Edmonds to downtown. We live in the
Westgate area and do not have a sidewalk down our hill, 232nd, to make walking to downtown a safe
option.
I do not think it is conducive to a pleasant work environment if we have a limited number of parking
79
spaces on the street and then have to pay parking fees when unable to move cars every 3 hours. If I
owned a business this would definitely be a topic I would consider prior to establishing a place of
employment in Edmonds.
If you continue to drive new business, restaurants, etc... it's imperative you build an infrastructure that
80
will support local residents and tourists (especially in the summer months when traffic & visitors
increase so much. Take a survey or put in cameras to monitor traffic patterns from all the businesses,
ferry traffic, shoppers, parks, etc...
I wonder how many cars in downtown Edmonds on a given day are employees who've driven to their
81
jobs and have free parking all day. I know there are a lot of 3 hr parking zones so maybe that is a
disincentive, but I think there are still probably quite a few. If we could give employees better options
for getting to work, that may help free up a lot of parking for people driving into downtown.
82
Keeping Edmonds charming the way it currently is, I don't want another Seattle/Bellevue/Lynnwood..
etc.
83
Keep downtown Edmonds cute!

91 Make sure all new buildings have plenty of parking. Stopped going to Ballard because of lack of
parking
92
1 do not want a multi -story parking garage. I want to see the city work with local businesses who have
parking lots to have them be public parking after hours.
Most of the time it is extremely easy to find parking downtown. For the occasions when it is not,
93
summer events, etc. I don't think we should overcompensate by spending a lot of money on a solution
that will only be utilized part of the time and sit unused during all the other times. Flex spots are a
great idea to utilize unused parking during hours that businesses are closed.
I recommend calling it the "Downtown Transportation Study," as having parking in the name implies
94
that the end result will be parking -focused. Options for solving the downtown transportation issues
should not be limited to cars. Free shuttles, circulator jitneys, valet parking, and other options should
be on the table. If we only consider how to handle cars, we will never solve the problem.
There are no busses for the back area neighborhoods off the main streets outtthe bowl. Driving is best
95
option. But i am not in favor of garage or pay parking. I think using bank lots and maybe adding a lot
somewhere would help. Keep Edmonds small.
96
Let people use the humongous Bank of America parking lot. So ridiculous to have all that space for
hardly any customers.
97
Please build a parking garage!
98
Most people are willing to walk several blocks so I don't think a parking garage would have to be right
in the core of the downtown area.
99
Costs of parking, Drivers who can not parallel park, laziness, businesses want other to subsidized their
customers.
When thinking about parking, keep in mind that there are families that have multiple children which
100
comes along with gear (diaper bags, strollers, etc.) that make it difficult to walk or bike and therefore
they must drive.
it's not just Edmonds, it the whole region, not just parking but movement, i.e. traffic work together at
101
least with Mountlake Terrace, Lynnwood and Shoreline conduct several surveys, where are most
people coming from???
102
Kids
The parking space markers along Main street have been useful. Spread the use to a wider district -
103
along Sunset, Bell, Edmonds streets. Early morning deliveries to restaurants on Main & Sunset cause
traffic hazards. Consider making parking areas near that intersection "Deliveries Only" between 6A &
11A. High speeds along Sunset -need police presence around ferry loading and unloading times.
Overnight parking in public lots that do not have time requirement. City vehicles park overnight for
104
ferry in public lot. Public lots not being monitored by law enforcement, underage drinking occurring,
trash bottles etc left in public lots
105
Preserve green space
106
1 work downtown and get penalized for parking for 3 hours outside of my office... Obviously there isn't
enough employee parking or the 3 hour rule should not apply to employees.

just how it will be. Don't do anything that will cost the city too much money, focus funding in the areas
118
that truly need it, like our schools and other large capital expenses we may require. Perhaps ensure
infrastructure is available for people to commute easily between the light rail station right into
downtown to stimulate the local economy. Increase size of roads where possible to allow for better

like we are second class considerations to the downtown businesses totally undersatand that the

those of us that live here, get the privilege of buying a permit and then get to duke it out on the street
fora spot when we come and go. within a half block of 6th and Bell, no provision has been made for
126
the parking issue that will be created when the Civic Park is going to be brought to life.. How many
hundredss of cars a day will come to that site. Very proud that Parks are integral to Edmonds, but any
leadership that brings hunreds of people to an area daily (for whatever reason) should be fired without
making provsions for those employees or invitees to the area. Glad we are going to have the park, but
whatever politics went in to not providing parking in the plan should be an embarrassment to that
shininq example of progress for our City

I would like for the issue of business's parking their work vehicles along public parking. Work vans
130 should not take up precious parking. One way they get away with it is to move their vans all through

I don't mind walking but i have kids that would complain the whole way up the hill. We can't all bike

142
Hard to monitor the many cars taking up two parking spaces.
143

I would like the employee permitted parking the stay 1 block away from the main area as it makes it

already short enough.

With the additional housing at 100th & Edmonds Way, it would be great to have a shuttle to go from
downtown to major shopping areas. For example a shuttle that loops from 5 corners to downtown to
147
the PCC (Westgate) shopping area. It would help mitigate ferry and downtown traffic, and would help
downtown residents get to groceries, other restaurants, etc.
Review current parking spots where one, two are currently and an additional one could be added with

Open-ended Response
don't turn downtown Edmonds into a parking nightmare where no one will want to go there anymore
152 (like downtown Seattle)
153
Provide for future population growth, not just the current crisis
154
Paid parking - that would detour visits to downtown
155
Shuttles, New lot at unocal
Designated motorcycle parking. They take up a whole space. Like at the fountain.. one space at each
156
side\corner of fountain
1 don't object to paying for parking, either in a lot or potentially a garage, if that increases parking
157
access and convenience. Especially at peak times, like during the Saturday market or holidays.
The lack of planning for parking at the Civic Park site. I believe the planners and city council felt they
158
could change behavior by excluding parking so people would have to use an alternative transport.
159
There isn't enough parking for all the events in the city and the many visitors every day.
Finish designating one vehicle spacing within allowed parking areas. It has really helped where
160
complete.
1 don't parallel park we'll, so my parking options are less than others. I often stay away from Downtown
161
Edmonds because it so hard to park.
162
Keep it walkable, even if that means less parking.
I don't think DT Edmonds should be turned into a pay to park area like the city of Seattle. I think that
will greatly decrease the amount of people that come visit. Moreover, we should want to promote
163
Edmonds to students and younger people. Having to pay to park won't help attract a wider
demographic.
164
Many women and very little children are in need of safer places to park
165
don't waste money on this
The use of off site parking with downtown shuttle service during peak parking (weekends and special
166
events)
167
If you go to the market or shop you'll be caring too much to walk or bike and the bus would be difficult.
My wife and two sons live in the Seaview neighborhood. Over my dead body would i ever walk to bike
to downtown Edmonds. Both Puget Drive and Olympic View Drive are unsafe for walking and biking.
168
Improving adding a bike and widening the sidewalk on Puget Dr., would go a long way to help that. I
would LOVE to bike as a family downtown on weekends and with big events. That's simply not feasible
now.
Paid parking isn't the answer. Would just find somewhere else to go. I think no change would be
169
better than that. Most businesses don't provide or contribute to parking, which is different than
many other locations
Folks parking in the marked spaces, if the are the front car, need to PULL FORWARD to the front line.
Those cars parking in the last space in an area, need to BACK UP to the end parking line. That would be
170
more courteous and would help those parking in the middle spaces! Maybe signs saying that would
help encourage that!! 2. It would be good if the city proceeded forward and marking more of the
parking spaces around town.

Limited beach parking which means many people are parking downtown and walking to the beach as
172 well. It would also be great to have some 5-10 minute spots to pick up take-out from downtown
restaurants
I ride the bus with ease into downtown Edmonds regularly instead of driving. Not because parking is
an issue, but because my son likes the bus. It's easy to access city park, the ferry terminal, Francis
173
Anderson, shops restaurants, the library, city hall, and so much more by using the bus. Please don't
increase parking square footage (maybe smaller stalls but please no more asphalt paving). Parks and
open space, trees and planting are so rare as it is now.
Mark parking clearly so only one space gets used per car. Some people take up two with their huge
174
vehicles.
175
Keep parking free! I would not visit downtown as often as I do if parking were paid.
I'm opposed to paid parking. Don't see the need for it at this time. Should enforce existing
176
restrictions; ie 3 hr limit
Weekday commutes! I would love to take the train more but I don't really want to drive 2 miles and
park. There isn't enough bike storage at the train station so I can reliably leave my bike behind,
securely. And the bus to train connection is very slow ... I would love to see dedicated on -demand
177
shuttles to take people down to the train in the morning. They started doing this in West Seattle to the
foot ferry and I hear it's great. This is needed for morning and evening commutes. Add more secure,
city run bike storage (I'd pay an annual fee!) So I can bike to the train too.
178
Don't waste too much tax dollars on this!
There are reoccurring vehicles parked along 6th N and the 600 block of Bell for the entire weekend.
Bowie Electric is one, and I'm sure there are many others that are not noticeably recognizable. There's
179
also confusion on areas that do and don't have yellow painted curbing. These areas should be re-
examined and corrected (special emphasis to Sunset Ave N). Hopefully these could increase the
number of spaces. Directions to designated "P" areas should be signposted when entering the
downtown core area.
180
Have bike racks, and motorcycle parking
We need to consider future growth as a destination city, where folks from other areas come to spend
181
the day. We need a parking facility centrally located.
182
Mark parking places. Two places in front of our house will get used as one a lot of the time.
1 don't parallel park at all so street parking is out a lot of the time a parking lot up town and by the
183
water by the ferry. Would be nice!
184
None that I can think of
185
Keep parking free.
186
No pay park some of use are struggling to pay rent.
There is no place to park for the ferry! No place to park and quickly visit businesses and so difficult to
187
find a spot or too far once I do to lug my kids out and back to support a small business.
188
Despite the marks, people still park stupid when parallel parking.
189
Provide more shuttle services with away from downtown parking.
- paint individual "stalls" as is done on Main between 5th and 6th - no more new apartments / condos
190
without a minimum of 1 car parking per XXX sqr ft unit - paid parking - underground parking
191
Free parking lots

193 Marking more parking spaces. Warning drivers who don't park within the lines
Downtown Edmonds is a challenge not only for parking,but also inattentive pedestrians, who step off

1) Does ticket and permit revenue cover enforcement costs (including court related costs)? 2) What is
being done to prevent business permit holders from parking for multiple days without moving their
197
vehicles? 3) Is the expected value of a ticket (probability of getting a ticket times the cost of a ticket)
greater than or equal to the cost of parking in a private lot? 4) Should the citizens of Edmonds
compete with private lots by subsidizing parking?
198
No study is needed. How about actually having the two full time parking officers do their job
199
Limited handicapped parking.
200
Free shuttle up and down fifth avenue from where all the condos begin to the fountain
1) Maximum 7 day limit at public parking for the train. 2) Only street parking when taking workshops at
201
Cole Gallery. Why can't people park in bank lots on weekends when those businesses are closed???
1) Small scale garage that doesn't overwhelm its neighbors and the design is contectual. 2) Parking
202
enforcement 3) Consider paid parking.
I notice employees of business park close by so maybe limiting hours parked in town or parking
203
permits for employees to make cars accountable
204
I feel a parking structure could be several blocks away from the downtown core
205
No taxpayer -funded parking garage downtown
206
Simply no parking anywhere
207
I get parking tickets because I work
208
Painting car spacing marks on curbs help!
209
None that I can think of.
1) Why has the City of Edmonds issued 725 employee parking passes when there are only <250
employees working for the City? 2) Raise the cost of parking permits. $10 is a pittance. 3) Consider
210
enabling a private developer to build an underground parking garage possibly on the site of current
above ground parking at 4th and Dayton. 4) Move the ferry dock and utilize that existing space
between Dayton and Main for downtown parking access.
211
N/A
Increase time limits on parking. Decrease the number of residents you try to squeeze down there. Keep
212
Edmonds suburban not URBAN.
213
N/A
To keep Edmonds the quaint beach town that it is. Not adding more buildings, businesses, or taller
buildings that an urban city has. This will be a benefit to the local businesses already here and be a
benefit to the residents and tourists also. More is not better, more invites frustration, crime, loss of
214
peacefulness, traffic, road rage, and ultimately shortage of parking. The tourists will still come, the
residents of Edmonds can still enjoy their town. We have cities all around us. Let the density be there in
the neighboring areas. Keep the small town feel of Edmonds as we know it. This will be the reason
people come.
What about creating a brochure that shows the parking areas and times open like bank lots for

216 the very large number of persons using handicap stickers
There will be a continuous increase of driverless electric cars so that future as well as Uber and Lyft
217
drivers
Increased CO2 emissions from all the additional driving that the City is trying to promote, change of
character to Edmonds, cost to Edmonds citizens, future modes of transportation will change (less
218
personal ownership of cars and more people using Uber so parking will be less of a problem in the
future).
Develop options that cost as little as possible for the city. Do not increase tax burden. Cost of parking
219
should be paid by those using it
1. Multistory parking structure locate west of 7th, north of Elm and south of Daily. 2. Two hour max
220
parking in downtown core with strong enforcement. The vehicles which park taking more than one
space shall be towed at owners expense.
221
Persons with limited mobility, parents with strollers, and parks need some on site parking options.

Model downtown parking like Levenworth, with a large lot on the edge of downtown and people and
228

1. That the committee researches similar cities that have addressed the issue. A perfect example
would be Prescott, AZ. Same size population with festivities in the downtown square which draw
outside visitors nearly every weekend. They finally built a 4- level parking garage several blocks away
from the square. Outside of event weekends, parking is free except for the first level where stalls are
rented to the business community. During events, when the city charges for parking, the garage is
229
always full. Downtown, regular curbside parking is at a diagonal and not metered. Not all of
Edmonds and Prescott's considerations would match, but there's enough to warrant some research.
The parking garage was a big issue initially, but greatly appreciated after the fact by residents and
visitors. 2. I'd like the study to consider how to incorporate "Edmonds" creativity into the solution to
help it blend in visually. A garage, for example, could conjure a ship or older structure like Old
Milltown. It doesn't have to be boring.
A 6 year old. A 10 week old. Have to walk down big hill then across Edmonds HWY then wait for bus.
230
Very hot in summer.
Downtown Edmonds is a charming town. That is why we moved here. We are sadden to think that a
parking garage or larger parking lot (like the citizen proposed parking for the new Civic Field) would
231
pollute our view. While parking maybe challenging, visitors must be willing to walk several blocks to
enjoy the quaint shops and restaurants. Please don't pollute our view of our quaint town with large
parking lots.
Crossing streets is scary. People run stop signs and don't seem to be on the lookout for pedestrians.
232
That needs to be considered when considering parking.
233
A few more 15 min spots for quick pickups / to go orders. One per block?

234 A parking garage is needed.
Not as big of a problem as some people make it. I would rather see more focus on sidewalk
235
improvements and maintenance.
We need a parking lot. There is a big empty lot on 3rd and Main that would be perfect for a lot for
236
people visiting downtown businesses.
Please consider downtown residents. It is already difficult to maneuver getting in and out of our
driveway with cars parked right up to the driveways. I was taught that you couldn't park within 5 feet
237
of a driveway or alley yet in Edmonds you can. This is a real safety hazard and cramming more cars on
residential streets will make it even worse.
238
More 30 min parking. And more handicap parking
1 hate how restrictive parking is. I pay taxes in Edmonds and should be able to park wherever and
239
whenever I want on public streets within the law.
A parking garage is now a necessity. I understand this will come at a very high cost BUT if we want to
240
keep adding amazing restaurants and events that attract people they must be able to park.
A parking structure somewhere would be nice, but hopefully not one that impedes anything at the
241
waterfront.
1 ride the Sounder train to work, so I hope you can preserve the free all -day parking there, and on
242
dayton street behind the library.

Not to even think about building a parking garage.

Downtown Edmonds is a gem and needs to be preserved. A trolly would work
249
time limitations, no view blocking
250
Na
A public multi level lot should be built in the existing police/city lot at 5th and Bell. Police/city use on
251
the bottom and then low cost paid parking on top level(s) for public. Revenue going to city. Easy to
monitor as it's right at the police station!
A public parking lot/garage would make a huge improvement to parking. Having small kids getting in
252
and out of the car makes street parking difficult and dangerous at times.
253
Abolish all parking laws
Keep parking simple as it is today. Please no pay metering etc. Let's keep it easy for people to visit our
254
downtown areas
Free street parking is a major asset for our community and the businesses located here. I believe
people were accustomed to parking in front of the business they were driving to, so while parking has
gotten tighter, it isn't that there are no spaces, it's that there are no spaces exactly where they wanted
255
to park. I believe you can typically park within a block or two of your destination. That said, Edmonds is
growing and we need to be forward thinking in how businesses have places for employees and
customers to park, and ensure our downtown residents can still park in front or very near their homes.

I think a lot of our seniors different abilities benefit from not having as much congestion and huge
amounts of new parking spaces. With huge building projects, apartments and more parking I would
256
also assume it becomes crowded. I look forward to maintaining with slight improvements to our
beachy small town vibe we now have with Edmonds.
Places to lock up my bike in a visible public place is important to me. I tried to park my bike on the day
of the 4th of July parade and had quite a challenge finding a safe place to park and lock it. Also, I have
257
seen attractive and artistic bike racks in other communities in the US. I think those would be a
welcome addition to Edmonds. I have an electric bike and I would prefer to park it in plain sight and at
a sturdy bike rack which can accommodate heavier bikes.
People taking up two to three spaces for one car because they don't park all the way to the end of a
258
space! This happens daily in front of my residence and I cannot find a close spot.
259
Please look at Marina parking
Whatever you do, please don't start charging for parking. Edmonds is so quaint, and the
260
meters/booths to pay at would ruin the sidewalk.
More Bike racks, more drinking fountains for those of us willing and able to walk or ride to town.
pedestrian safety. I see downtown Edmonds as destination in of its self. I do. It expect to be able to
261
park in front of the business I'm planning to visit I choose to go there, therefore I choose to walk to my
destination. When we visit the mall we can choose which entrance to park near but we rarely get to
park directly in front of the business we choose.
Lack of parking for Civic Field after renovation. No more condos or apartments built without adequate
262
off-street parking as part of building. No no no to garages in downtown area.
1 have impaired mobility and find that there are few disabled parking spots available in the downtown
263
area
Accessibility for people with disabilities that use wheelchairs to drive around downtown Edmonds.:)
264
Thanks!
There are some areas where crosswalks don't match with ADA low curb, example I live on giltner In
and 3rd Ave N. This is dangerous for me with a stroller and young kids. Traffic on 3rd N especially up by
265
Caspers St. drives too fast and often doesn't stop for pedestrians. Other crosswalks on 3rd are better
with the flags but still need more calming traffic measures. If you want more people to walk who live
within walking distance make sure roads are safe enough for walkers.
Instead of so many surveys all the time, take the monies and construct a parking garage. This would
266
allow people to have a place to park and then provide a bus to get from point a to b. Charging
astronomical prices is out of the question. People pay enough in taxes here.

276
1 would love to bike however I am affraid of getting hit in downtown.
277
Try to move more cars off the main streets and offer free parking with a shuttle
Limited street parking times/hours makes it extremely hard for people who work downtown Edmonds
278
to be able to park all day so they can go to work!!!! Most places don't provide employee parking.
Defined lines for designated parking spots works, as residents/visitors must fit their vehicle into a spot.
279
Communication and signage about off -hours parking at banks and other local businesses would be
helpful.
Residents are parking on the streets taking up valuable spaces for days. There are a lot of private
280
parking spaces used by employees and available.
1 think many Edmonds residents, outside the business district, would shop at the downtown
281
businesses if we had convenient, in -and -out parking.
282
So many restaurants without parking
283
Accessibility, clear directions, ample space per car slot
Accessible lots or additional parking in the hub of downtown. Lots 1/2 mile away won't work for me. A

help!
285
1 would not mind taking a shuttle from outside the core if it was on a consistent regular schedule.

Please open up more employee spots!
Accessible/handicap parking options. More of them, and raising awareness about where they are. My
287
child is wheelchair bound so we often park in accessible spots near library, but would like to know if
more options downtown.
Stop the overdevelopment of Edmonds. We're full, anymore development will make Edmonds an
288
undesirable place to live and/or visit. We want to stay a quaint seaside town, not another Ballard or
Kirkland.
Additional parking is not needed except during summer. Need more than 3 hrs. Lunch then support
Edmonds merchants, four reasonable. You can find parking in Edmonds, people don't want to walk,
used to parking in front of where they want to go. How many merchants park close to business?
289
Maybe should have purchased floral center for parking garage. Can't spend tons of money for parking
garage when only needed during summer. Have trolley at holy rosary/Methodist church, other areas,
when needed. Parking meters will discourage people from supporting our businesses, and people will
still have to walk a few blocks.
290
More buses going into downtown
291
Underground Parking garage ONLY.
Each new building Must have public parking available, Even if it's a paid parking. Also parking on the
streets shouldn't be ticketed on Saturday or Sunday. Ticketing people who leave their car overnight

who are responsible is asking for them to drive after supporting local businesses. Please get more
public parking. Also there needs to be more street handicap parking. Thanks

I operate the Edmonds Theater, which has a capacity of 235.1 have routinely heard from residents and
visitors that they cannot find reasonable parking in a timely manner to coincide with the 2-4 shows we
have each day. They are regretful but have chosen the malls and Cinebarre based on convenience. In
the last 3 years attendance has dropped by 1 /3 and the consistent feedback is that the "parking
nightmare" that is Edmonds is the sole factor. My business cannot be supported by the residents in the
bowl alone (unless I raise ticket and concessions prices to levels that rival Seattle or NY). Movie run
293 times are increasingly approaching 3 hours and my customers need time to arrive, purchase
concessions (the Theater's main source of revenue), and return to their vehicles. I've had increased
complaints of customers being ticketed by parking enforcement when trying to support a local
business. If parking is not greatly increased, the Edmonds Theater will not survive to its 100th
anniversary in 2023. The theater needs the ability to have 100+ cars park nearby on a busy weekend in
order to continue to be viable. I'm available for further comments or questions and would love to help
improve downtown parking! Thanks for listening. - Christopher Mayes
Living downtown with children makes parking a bit more challenging . It's hard to get little kids to
294
walk 4 blocks I distracted with all their things. It would be great to have a zone area for resident
parking with a sticker like they have in Queen Anne.
I hope the city is looking at transportation as a whole and not just how to make more parking
downtown. I would like to see designated areas for Uber/Lyft drop off and pick up as well as a
295
trolley/bus to bring people into the bowl from outer parking areas. I'd hate to invest in parking when
we're so close to driverless cars and light rail. I'd personally like to see downtown shut off from cars
and made into a pedestrian -friendly, more European type of town square.
296
Easier parking not all parallel parking
I think marking the parking spots like was done in the downtown core should be expanded so people
297
do not take up more room than needed.
298
Intensify parking enforcement. Reduce opportunities for long-term non-resident parking.
299
More downtown parking, more traffic.
Parking facilities should be located to so as to serve multiple users, ie, to serve rail/ferry commuters as
300
well as waterfront and downtown visitors
There is parking available after hours at banks and there are many private parking spaces in alleys and
301
behind buildings available.
I would not want Edmonds to have paid street parking. I would think paid parking in a lot would be
302
reasonable. I am concerned about the "personality " of Edmonds and what paid street parking would
communicate to residents and visitors
1 hope the summer trolley becomes permanent. Seems like a great solution. Please don't spend a
303
fortune, ruin views and cause more parking problems by building a parking garage
I hope this is not another parking study to be shelved. What will the city do with the results of the
304
Study? There is a finite amount of parking spaces and to walk a few blocks is common in all
downtown areas.
It's easy to park if you're willing to walk a short distance. There is no need for a parking structure, and
305
absolutely no need for metered parking. Metered parking will discourage non-residents from visiting.

Adequate mandated off street parking built into all new downtown projects. Projects such as the Main

More frequent busses down 196th, better sidewalks & bike paths
When ECA was remodeled, and additional phase of the remodel was to build an underground and
street level parking garage, with an events center above it providing outdoor access and views for
events. Please do not build a parking garage anywhere other than that location. A parking garage at
the waterfront would bring more cars there than the 180 degree area, with access in and out via only
328
two streets, than the area can handle. A shuttle to that area is the only practical option. It is
unfortunate that the Senior Center is being built there. Short-sighted decision on the part of the
funders. It will create more congestion, and eventually the sea level rise will overtake the building.
What were we thinkinq?

329 It is difficult to take my mom with Walker to downtown restaurants. Also sidewalks are very uneven!
1 like the 3 hour limits (rather than a 2 hour limit) especially with all the salons/spas in the area. The free
330
parking is something important to my family and makes it easy to feel like a small community town.
More handicap parking on the streets. Don't make me go into a parking structure that is far away from
the main businesses. Edmonds is beautiful to walk in. Have the people that are able to walk, park in
331
the structure and enjoy their legs and muscles.... More handicap parking is a must. How is Edmonds
getting away with such unusual handicap parking places on streets without businesses? This problem
needs to change now...
332
ALL of Edmonds' residences.
333
Edmonds needs revenue, meters could provide some?
334
Angle parking with Main Street one way from Fifth to Third if I remember like it used to be years ago.
Parking should be added now, before town grows even more. With new restaurants coming, a parking
335
lot should be added north and south of downtown. It wouldn't need to be huge, but add some
additional parking.
Having more marked parallel parking spots. People don't pull close enough which takes up too much
336
space. Ticketing people who parallel park incorrectly.
337
Keep the parking free
Longer parking options for taking the walk-on ferry to Kingston. Three hours is just not quite long
338
enough to get over there, have a meal or short visit and come back.
It is so important to keep Edmonds the aesthetic treasure it is. I would not support an above ground
339
parking structure.
340
More handicap spots are needed.
341
Angled parking to slow traffic down
342
Edmonds residences should be given priority over visitors
343
Apartments being built ratio to parking
When I looked at moving closer to downtown, I noted that even being on the 196th bus line did no
344
good if attending ECA event at night. No convenient late night service.
As a downtown resident without off-street parking (e.g., no driveway or carport/garage), we would like
345
to have some sort of assurance that we can park near our home, and not have to park blocks away
when there are events. Is zoned parking permits an option for residents?
As a part of a downtown Edmonds church with very limited off-street parking, we are reliant on folks
having available parking on street near our building. Currently it works well as Sunday morning is a
346
less busy time, however, I would be concerned that significant changes to Sunday parking rules could
affect the ability of our folks to get to services.
347
1 like the trolley idea, can that be expanded so people don't need to park downtown but can get a
shuttle from say, Westgate to downtown? Lots of empty land up there for a "park and ride"
348
Not enough electric chargers in Edmonds.
349
Keep Edmonds charming, use all available space wisely before building a garage
Getting tickets in the 3 hr parking while working (as an employee) at Starbucks. Sometimes we are too
350
busy to get out in time to move our cars

As much as I support the ECA, events there really impact the areas around it. More off-street parking
351
for the ECA would be really helpful.
352
Elderly people who need to walk short distances but enjoy strolling through the streets
As stated above, bigger parking areas for large vehicles, RVs which come through Edmonds while
353
shopping or on a trip
354
Elderly population. Cannot walk long distances or up and down hills
I live a few blocks from downtown and often am not able to park in front of my own house due to
355
people parking where there is not a 3 hour limit so I am unable to park in front of my house to unload
groceries or other items.
As the population grows, the need for parking will only become greater. It is naive to think building a
356
parking lot will encourage people to drive more. And, if there is no convenient parking the tax base of
downtown businesses will suffer.
Please do not put paid meters in!!! Edmonds has been our home for several generations & has always
been family friendly. We enjoy coming from 5 Corners and causally spending the day. The thought of
357
having a 3 hour meter to feed takes away from the small town feel that Edmonds is know for. A trolly
system would be incredible!!!
Since Edmonds is becoming more of a destination, it would be great if there was a parking garage near
358
the downtown core, or at least some decent parking lots. I grew up in Edmonds and the current
parking situation is starting to remind me of living in Ballard.
We have lots of drivers who run the stop signs or don't come to full stops or speed. Can be very
359
difficult to cross the street.
360
Holiday parking
Parking for employees of Edmonds businesses. We have to park 2+ blocks away to find street parking
361
that's available all day.
362
NA
Time for a parking garage! Also stop ticketing people who attended Rick Steves events, spend money
363
at our restaurants and need to park for more than 3 hours.
364
Attractiveness, unimpeded view of the Sound, ease of entry and egress
365
Need a multi -story parking paid garage that will accommodate all the new cars that will be incoming
366
We need more disability parking, and thousands of us in Edmonds are on a limited income, and the
city is not taking that into account. We cannot pay for parking. Ever.
367
Government officials /employees shouldn't be taking up the spots. Make them take the bus or walk.
More handicapped spots, more enforcement for those spots ... it is the only way I can go downtown.
368
We all Loved Cafe de Paris for their lot IF we got there at 11:00 for their handicapped spot. Miss him
and his food a lot too...
369
Availability
370
When parked, I need enough SAFE space to strap and unstrap a kid from a car seat on each side of the
car as well as pull out a double stroller from the trunk.
371
Greater parking enforcement helps.
372
More options rather than parallel parking
373
Eliminate those answers from people who think they should park in front of there destination

Need better management of existing parking.
need more convenient parking. need to require on site parking for new construction of residential and

The 3 hour limit makes no sense! How can I eat lunch, shop and get nails done. I would like to see 5-6

382
Need more disabled parking spaces.
383
Need more parking. Parking garage?
384
Street size is an issue when parking is at max - several streets in dt are allow for only 1 car at a time
even though it's a 2 way street. Adds to the frustration.
1 wouldn't come to downtown Edmonds as much if I had tho pay for parking. I would hate to see a
385
parking garage, it's an eyesore.
386
repair sidewalks
I'm hoping that a solution that doesn't involve paid parking is found. It would be unfortunate to have
387
to charge for parking
388
Need parking lot!!!!! Most cities have parking lots available
Please preserve the charm of downtown, require developers to build their own parking areas. The
389
trolley idea is awesome!
Need speed bump just north of 4-way stop at Walnut on 5th. People gun it when heading north from a
390
stop.
391
Parking garage
I've heard discussion is taking place on the City wanting to make use of the Holy Trinity Edmonds
Church south parking lot on 7th and Daley St. I don't like this idea because my own children as well as
392
many other families that I witness use that parking lot as a safe and quiet place for their kids to ride
bikes and play. This won't be possible for our kids if it becomes a parking lot used publicly.
It might be good to have a garage somewhere nearby, and turn more of the street spots into
393
handicapped spaces for people who can't walk from the parking garage. I grew up near U Village and
was appalled when they built their big parking garage, but honestly it makes parking so much more
quick and easy.
Avoid planting large bushes streetside that interfere with parking spots (being able to get out of your
car on the passenger side)... this is an issue along Main Street. Personally I think you could charge a
nominal fee ($1/hr) for downtown corridor parking with fees going to sidewalk and intersection
394
maintenance and beautification. Maybe 1 st hour free or something like that. That might encourage
business owners to purchase an annual city parking permit and stop parking on Main or other main
streets in front of their businesses and moving their vehicles every three hours.
395
Parking remains free

Parking garage for new builds to keep people from taking up street parking in visitor potential parking
396
places. Parking garage for apartments should be required 3 places for each apartment.
Parking spaces required of businesses need to be re-evaluated. I no longer shop at QFC on 100th
397
because of parking and egress issues.
New building that will influence future parking needs such as new community (senior center
398
replacement) center, market square in downtown at Main St & 6th. A well -placed parking structure
would not distract from the city's ambience.
Larger vehicles are very difficult to park in the narrow spots on Main between 5th and 6th. If I park with
399
wheels touching the curb I'm still on the white line. I drive a full size SUV. I do love the space hash
marks in the core area and would love to see more.
400
More parking for employees of downtown business
Stupid people. Greedy jerks like Hotel Group, who have spots reserved for their customers blocking
401
with signs so the hardware store store customers can't park there. Then go into the hardware store,
after finding EVERY SINGLE PARKING SPOT FILLED, FINDING ZERO CUSTOMERS IN THE HARDWARE
STORE, BECAUSE HOTEL GROUP FILLED THEM ALL.
402
Handicap parking
Balancing growth with preserving character. If we lose our character, we will eventually also lose a lot
403
of the visitors, as they will just go to wherever is closest to them.
404
New Civic Park, Waterfront Center, projected growth over time
405
The width of the street, length of the space, inconsiderate drivers
406
Longer time parking, 3 hours is not long enough
407
Do not consider metered parking.
New parking options need to be identified and acted upon before those opportunities slip away. 1
408
think the lot at 6th and Main would have been a wise municipal purchase, and could generate income
if a pay for use program was in place. I live not far from the edge of the three hour parking and now
the spots in front of our building are used by employees and visitors alike for hours on end.
409
NO outside paid "consultants" those $$ can be spent in creating a partial solution !!!!!!!
Parking garages and street parking can be both an eyesore as well as cause issues when inexperienced
410
drivers attempt to park and delay the flow of traffic
Better parking would be nice but it doesn't seem all that bad to me. I would hate to see a huge tall
411
parking garage go in somewhere. I hope you keep the aesthetics of our beautiful and small beach
town in your considerations.
412

The seasonal trolly is great. Their are still many businesses who do not allow parking when there
414
businesses are closed - the worst offender being sound transit in the cascadia museum lot. The
sounder runs 4-5 times a day in the AM but the lot is restricted 24/7.
The spots are to narrow for people's massive cars, maybe make some compact only so that cars aren't
415
half on the sidewalk while still being in the middle of the road.
Saturday market is the most popular time for the most difficult parking, but it's always doable within a
416
couple blocks.

Blind corners (5th and Howell, 4th and Main, etc.) caused by parked cars too close to intersection. May
need more handicap spots (40% of Edmonds Folks are seniors-- especially useful by hearing aid store,
417 pharmacy, etc.). Some people have told me they can't/ won't parallel park, so advertising anywhere
they can ever nose -in or tail -in park, and/ or creating more spots like that could help. Could have 15
mins spots in front of a store that supports it (pharmacy, to -go restaurant, etc.)
I think meter lady definitely should not give tickets during SAT MARKETING. I saw visitors getting a
418
ticket. Older couple and they really didn't understand. That's when visitor are more likely to come!!!!!
Not good PR for Edmonds.
I think putting the lines in to mark "spots" was a great idea. Edmonds does not have parking problems.
419
Seriously. Edmonds is a "squeaky wheel gets the grease town" and I'm sure this survey is in response to
several complaints from 2-3 residents in the bowl. Having paid parking is a terrible idea. Not needed.
Don't consider it.
Building apartments without parking is unacceptable. Parking spaces are small and some drivers have
420
no clue how to park. They take up parts of a second space.
Require new construction to have ample parking for guests and residents. A tenant should be able to
421
park at their residence and not the street, same goes for employees at a business.
Do NOT pur hourly limits on streets outside of downtown as residents need and use the parking.
422
Many condos don't offer parking for residents and units were purchased with street parking
availability in mind. Edmonds is for the residences more than businesses.
Building more capacity example parking garage or use more public owned property to actually create
423
more parking supply!
Bus service from outside of the bowl is too limited. Also would love to see free shuttle year round
424
especially if it made a stop at west gate qfc.
425
Business attraction... i.e. NO METERS
426
Businesses MUST provide adequate parking. Not just pay fees/fines for lack of parking.
That the study is practical and not another $75,000 notebook on the shelf that is a waste of our
427
financial resources.
How many short-term spaces are available? 1 Hour or less. Is there enough parking enforcement to
428
allow for turnover of spaces?
How much the surrounding areas outside edmonds and bowl are growing. People that live in
429
Shoreline, and surrounding cities want to come to downtown Edmonds be less hastle to get to then dt
seattle... safer etc
I live at the corner of 7th and Dayton. We do not have a driveway. We have lived in the house for 4
years and in the last year, we are seeing an dramatic change in how much parking there is available to
us at and near our house. I would like to see residential street parking permits be offered to houses
430
like mine that are from early 1900s and don't have parking. Also, on major event days (Arts fest,
Octoberfest, July 4th, Taste etc), it would be great to have the right to apply for one spot in front of the
house that could be designated parking only with permit.
431
Require shops to provide more parking or build one or two big garages near the city center
I live close enough to downtown to walk, so parking isn't much of an issue for me. It would be great if
432
we had a pedestrian only walking area in the main shopping area with parking lots on the perimeter of
downtown.

More parking in general but especially handicapped. Edmonds is a destination. When people visit
434
others in neighboring cities, where do residents take them. EDMONDS! We have the cute shops,
restaurants, beach, views. They come in cars and that means more parking. We need lots close to
downtown even if it means paid parking. But do not charge for parking on street.
435
1 prefer to keep parking free.
436
No business owner or employee park close to there business
Pedestrian traffic is a big part of the parking and vehicle traffic issues in my experience. People on foot
cross the street with no regard for traffic and vehicles are not able to flow through the downtown
streets properly. Secondly, now the city is building a community center in the lot of the senior center,
437
next to brackets landing south. That will inevitably require more parking closer to the beaches.
Pedestrians need to be held accountable for traffic flow and new developments need to have
adequate parking before being approved.
Can you make it easier for bikes to get into downtown? If more people felt safe riding bikes, then there
would be less demand for parking. Many street crossings that cyclists would use due to lower levels of
traffic do not have crosswalks or some way to indicate to drivers that a cyclists may be crossing. Often
cyclists have to wait lengthy periods of time before being able to cross. Maple Street is one of the
438
better streets to get into downtown Edmonds —it has lower levels of traffic and is not as steep as many
other streets leading into downtown. The crossing at 9th and Maple is horrible. Sometimes I wait up to
5 minutes until someone is willing to stop and let me go through. Another intersection that can use a
better bike crossing —but is outside of downtown —is 220th St SW and 80th Ave W.
No huge parking garage condos need more parking spots see if parking can be done in huge empty
439
parking lots at churches in day and transport commuters to bus depo or train
I think there is plenty of parking available downtown, particularly with all of the spaces near the
Sounder station. If anything, more spaces should be reserved for disabled parking and downtown
440
street parking should be metered to manage demand. Paid parking would increase turnover and be
beneficial for area businesses while encouraging those with other options to travel by other modes.
441
Parking is mostly free. Keep it that way.

Can you please build a parking structure? It's as though all the new businesses going in get all the
street parking. An art studio and apartment are being built next to my work, and I don't know where
these people are going to park? Unfortunately, in regards to weekends, the lack of parking makes me
not want to spend my time and money in downtown Edmonds. It's too crowded! There is nowhere to
park. I used to love Ballard, but I don't go there often anymore because the parking is SO BAD. Now,
there are new businesses being built in Edmonds and new condos being put up - - and I really need a
443
solution. I have worked at my job in downtown Edmonds for over 10 years, and parking is getting
harder and harder to find. Would you perhaps consider turning all streets in downtown Edmonds
into "or employee permit parking" areas, so that we don't have to walk as far to find spots to park? Of
course, those who are parking under 3-hours can still park in those areas. And for clarification to #6,
I'm not willing to use other transportation modes to get to Downtown Edmonds simply because there
aren't any (such as, I can't take a train/walk from where I live in North Edmonds to downtown, etc.)
444
no issues
Parking isn't everything. Europe has amazing small towns without too much parking because it has

1 live in the 500 block of Bell Street and have only parking in the alley. When I have guests, parking can
446
be a real difficulty for my guests.
I live on 6th and Glenn Street. The Edmonds Art Center is always having festivals and concerts and it
447
takes up residential parking. We also have people that Park on our street that leave their vehicles on
our street for days at a time sometimes weeks and are not ticketed to move
It's horrible that allowed that new building at main and 6th with no parking and you wouldn't listed
448
about parking at he field. You want to draw people to downtown but you have no parking and that
just impacts residents property.
Please keep parking free. 2 hour max. Fewer parking permits to open more close parking for all.
Visible Post where all the after hours lots are so we all see them in areas we are trying to park in. Add
449
parking on all of Sunset as it appears some have their areas protected unfairly. No oarking garages in
the bowl but perhaps 5 corners or westgate with regular and reliable shuttle. Some communities have
free full time trolley that can add to the fun cozy atmosphere we want to preserve
Cars are traffic, and badly managed traffic is bad for walkability. Keep downtown Edmonds and the

459
meters), would be disappointing.
The yellow marked (no parking) areas which appear excessive in Edmonds. Many more parking spaces
would become available if some of the yellow curbs are removed. If the issue is parked cars making an
460
intersection difficult to see cross traffic, then put in 4-way stop signs so cars don't have to see way
down the street. Having more stop signs to gain more parking should not be an issue in the
downtown area - cars should be moving slowly due to pedestrians anyway.

There are approx. 10 parking spaces for ferry riders. There is a lot that costs $15 if you wish to park for

through our downtown area along the coast only for passenger trains Edmonds should take a stand

Charging annually for residents to have a visitor permit for friends and family to visit is ridiculous.
The misconception that parking is "difficult". It all depends on how far you want to walk. I equate it to

calling Edmonds "Deadmonds", the more we complain, the more it becomes an issue.
468
No metered parking please!
If I had to pay for parking in downtown Edmonds, it would likely eliminate most of my trips. As it is
469
now we are downtown once or twice a week walking the dog, dining out, visiting the local shops, etc.
470
Charging for parking will not solve any issues, unless you want businesses to suffer.
Use of lots for weekend parking, potential to pay for parking if longer than a couple hours. le 1-2 hrs
471
=free. Otherwise, move car or pay for extended time. New developers must provide adequate parking
for new residents and businesses.
Parking issues for patrons and vendors for our local festivals, particularly the Edmonds Arts Festival.
472
These festivals bring in a tremendous amount of revenue to the city and if there is no parking
available, attendance (and revenue) will drop.
City needs to check ADA requirements. They are not following the required space on sidewalks
473
allowing pedestrians and wheelchairs. They also need to redo a good portion on The sidewalks. I am
one of many who have fallen on them over the years. And spraying an orange line on the sidewalk to
show where it is uneven would not win someone's lawsuit against the city for a fall.

478 Common sense solution and cost.
It seems as though there is a lot more street parking available than marked. For example outside my
apartment there are lines painted to park with in - more than enough room for a large truck or
suburban But not 2 regular sized cars. Yet there is plenty of room on either side of the markings to
479
extend this and still leave room to access the driveway at one end and the cross walk at the other bit
get an addition amount of room so that now 2 cars could park. I feel like I see this all over when out
walking - if lines were extended I believe it would create a number of spaces. Also would be great if
people would be ticketed for not parking within the lines where those are marked (Main Street) I have
had many occasions where I couldn't park due to someone else being in more than one marked spot
480
Condition of sidewalks and more well marked pedestrian crosswalks.
Consider adding parking to the area by the Boys and Girls Club when that is being redone. There has
been studies that would easily be able to add parking at a nominal cost during the planning. If those
481
of us who live in downtown can't park in front of our own houses and more and more condos and
apartments are being built it is necessary to plan ahead.
482
Why is there no parking allowed at the biggest lot in town on fourth in Dayton?

Handicap parking should be available everywhere
Senior center parking should be for seniors only till 4 PM. Others were using the parking and it made it

Please increase the amount of employee parking spaces in and around 2nd, 3rd, and James. Especially
488
when conducting construction, taking out a large portion of the employee spaces.
Consider bike lanes on all roads and sidewalks with ramps at all intersections to encourage other
means of transportation to reduce use of cars. Need better way to get from different neighborhoods
489
within edmonds to downtown where walking uphill or long distances is problematic such as five
corners, wastage etc. I wish a gondola was the answer! Uber drop off and quick 5 min unloading

Safe bike lanes/routes, including for children who should NOT be riding in the street at all. Secure and
490
convenient bike parking.

Employee parking permit spaces are too limited. Permits are paid for and adequate parking should be
492
made available.
493
Consider downtown growth.
494
Parking long enough to have lunch and shop.
Just provide more parking. Don't bother for other modes of transport... it works for occasional big
events but not regularly, which is what makes a gathering place flourish. Work with more banks for

Question 7: Please list any issues or conditions you wish to make sure the Downtown
Parking Study takes into consideration:
Open-ended Response
You cannot expand parking enough to accommodate regional growth. Increase safe bike access to
499 downtown Edmonds, and increase transit.
Consider HOW people can get to downtown. With the current infrastructure, driving is easiest as
crossing HWY 99 is unsafe, there are no safe bike routes to access DTE for families, bus schedules are
500
inconvenient (last bus runs at 8:30 p.m.) and unreliable. The focus is often only on DTE rather than
thinking about people outside of this area and other ways they can utilize options other than driving
that is convenient. Also, there are no real spaces to park bikes.
Residential Land Use impacts - the glaring example is not requiring the inclusion of parking in a
501
recently built condo building.
502
No paid street parking, don't lose our community's soul
If the bowl area around downtown had more sidewalks installed accommodating wheelchair and
503
stroller access, it would help to encourage more foot traffic and alleviate parking.
504
Please ask for enhanced bus service to the downtown core (5th and Dayton) from 220th.
505
Not enough parking.
It seems we have some empty spaces that are designated for businesses but dont seem to get used for
them like in the past the ones for Ombu and the pet store( no longer in these locations) and the ones
506
for the Dayton and 5th businesses only. There is an empty space north of Arista also , could this be
made into parking? Are the spaces at the top of Mill town that used to service the former hardware
store available to the public?
507
Handicapped parking availability, pedestrian safety, handicapped accessibility for shuttles
508
The committee needs to take action not just study the money away.
509
The frequency of the running of the #196 bus line. I would take it more often if it ran more often.
The parking passes for employees of businesses, cost and locations. Also the parking fine reduction for
510
employees of businesses.
511
Lack of parking when traveling by ferry (walk on)
512
Consider shuttles from local park & rides lots.
513
Lack of unlimited time parking
514
Why not have a public parking area at the civic park near the Boys and Girls Club.
Do not use open spaces of parks for parking. Make developers build parking for structures they may
515
build. Consider a parking structure in parking lot of City Hall/Poloce Dept.
516
look at parking garage on city propertry
517
Please keep parking free.
518
Safety crossing Main Street
consider special permit parking areas in the downtown area for both Edmonds residents as well as
519
Edmonds seniors. Special parking for residents has already been implemented for Seattle
neighborhoods where residents are allowed to park for more than two hours.
Poor sidewalks, no sidewalks, no ramp on sidewalk corners. Would love more parking all in one place
520
local to downtown
521
Continue free parking
522
Parking lots being made available during non -business hours
Not enough train parking when people have to commute to work. If there is no train parking, you can't
523
park anywhere else or you get slapped with a $50 ticket even if it is away from the businesses and
there's tons of open parking. Need ample train parking.

Question 7: Please list any issues or conditions you wish to make sure the Downtown
Parking Study takes into consideration:
Open-ended Response
please consider having more private lots available to public use after business hours. all new
524 construction should have to provide enough parking for their business owners or residents as well as
at least 5 public spots
525
continue marking parking spaces adjacent overgrown sidewalks
526
Keep the small town feel and not place parking meters around the city
Please do not start charging in the downtown area for 3 hr. parking ... if you do, you will turn us into a
527
Kirkland -not a good thing. I think it was really smart to get banks and businesses to allow outside
parking during non -working hours - that actually has helped a lot.
I LOVE the parking space delineations that were recently added downtown. They are so helpful. 1
528
hope that if lots are added, that the spaces are large enough to actually accommodate real cars/trucks
and do not assume we all drive tiny pocket sized cars.
529
Residents
530
More parking in their own developments civic & senior center to name a few
531
We don't need meters. Keep parking situation just the way it is. I haven't had issues finding parking.
532
Not having teeny tiny parking spots.
533
No parking garage over 2 stories Keep Edmonds pedestrian friendly.
534
1 think we need a parking garage.
Number of vehicles parked on city streets by residents of those streets. (my neighbor has 9 vehicles, so
535
many are parked on the street)
536
No parking meters except maybe in high traffic parking areas
537
1 think time of day and time of year needs to be addressed.
538
1 am almost always traveling with a child so any transportation options would need to be kid friendly!
539
Cost
There's plenty of parking for anyone willing to walk a block or two. I live in Woodway, but work in
Edmonds - I'm down there every day and don't have an issue. My husband and I enjoy dinners in many
540
Downtown Edmonds restaurants several times a month - again, no problem finding parking. Walking a
block or two really shouldn't be a big deal ... helps to walk off some of those delicious calories!
541
Cost (ideally none)
Cost of bus transportation and timing of buses make driving more convenient. A parking structure
would be nice, but where you would place it would make a huge difference as to how well it would
improve the parking situation. Placing parking close to the waterfront doesn't really benefit the
542
central business area although moving parking for train users to a parking structure and releasing
parking they are currently using, such as in front of the Cascadia Art Museum, might help some. I think
train use will only increase so need for commuter space has to be taken into consideration for parking.
Employees and business owners that move their cars around when they see enforcement. They park
543
all day if there is no enforcement. I know many that don't care about the 3 hour limit and actually have
watchdogs to see if the enforcement officer comes around.
Please don't allow multi family units downtown that have ZERO parking! This creates an undue
544
hardship on my customers and running a business in Edmonds.

Question 8: Please mention any particular observations you have had about
downtown parking that you wish the study and staff be aware of:
Open-ended Response
1 Put in a system that has a map of where there are available spaces
2
Valet for downtown businesses during peak times
3
Encourage (fine) business owners and staff not to take valuable customer parking spaces. Please
include restaurants, banks, salons and real estate offices in the target.
Develop a full time or at least peak time (weekends, special events, holidays, etc.) trolley system in a
4
public private (read down town business contributions) consortium. Have this run up to the 99
corridor with stops all along the route to town and back.
5
If you come for the Saturday market beginning at 9:00, continue to shop at the local business and then
have lunch, you will be here for more than 3 hours. The 3 hour parking limits can be a problem.
6
Enforce fines for employees and business owners parking on the street taking up valuable space for
customers. Especially restaurants and real estate offices.
7
Advertise/open up Port bus to walkers from Ferry, bus, train, etc. to encourage time spent up in
Downtown.
8
Partnerships with private businesses/churches for more parking lots
9
More parking for employees working at local businesses that aren't 3-5 blocks away.
10
Increased employee permit parking spaces are needed. When we come to Edmonds for other reasons
(shop, dine, etc.) we generally can find parking.
11
Why has the city neve considered a parking garage? Is it because of appearances? Would certainly add
space and some could be allocated as permit only parking.
12
1 selected one option above, but I am not sure any of the suggestions are great.
13
Abolish all parking laws.
I think there needs to be better parking for businesses. There are so many businesses downtown, that
there needs to be places for their employees to park. Otherwise, you will drive out the businesses of
14
downtown. I love working here - but in the winter time it is COLD and rainy, and walking 2-3 blocks to
work, because I only have a half block of parking next to my work building, is just not enjoyable. I
think more streets should include employee parking permit spaces.
Shorter time limits to parking spaces right in front of a business such as banks, hair salons, restaurants
15
etc. Not three hours, but only one or two. Add paid parking meters to all of downtown to help pay for
a multi level parking structure.
16
A dedicated parking structure.
For longer time limits: I know we don't have the money or the will, but a parking garage is more
efficient than a parking lot for long-term (ferry) parking. Not sure where it could go to comply with
17
Edmonds building height. I think we already have the right amount of parking enforcement. One final
thought - we probably would not have this problem but because Edmonds has become a destination
town ... thus encouraging people from other towns to visit Edmonds. This is great, I am glad it is
happening but shouldn't those businesses carry most of the responsibility for solving the issue.
18
Increased bus service on Saturdays and Sundays (every 30 min instead of every 60 min). Dedicated
ADA parking and/or load zones for passengers.
19
Nothing. Leave it alone.
20
Weekend trolly around to different shopping spots.
21
Free shuttle up and down fifth Avenue. Starting where the condos begin all the way to the fountain

Open -ended Response
As an elderly walker, every trip from home is a broken hip waiting to happen due to uneven sidewalks!
22 Some of my guests prefer to walk in the streets rather than risk damaging their limbs by tripping on
the sidewalks. If you want the numbers of walkers to increase, fix the sidewalks! Many of us could walk
to more destinations, rather than park, if the sidewalks were repaired.
23
Trolly
24
A parking garage is greatly needed. Use the trolly car peak evenings and all day of weekends
25
Parking with free shuttle
Bike share would help immensely - I would use it in a heartbeat! Downtown also doesn't have very
26
many bike racks. I feel strongly that Edmonds should not have paid parking, at least until bike share &
bus/shuttle options greatly improve. To charge for parking but not offer other options is an issue of
equity - downtown should be available to all.
27
More bank share lots
28
Do NOT meter the parking.
See above - ask banks and other lots of "business hours" shops to become public parking after 5pm or
29
6pm. Band of America, Twist Yoga, Faye's Shear Delight, Washington Federal Bank, Ace Hardware /
The Hotel Group, Pancake Haus etc.
30
More hash marked spots, more lot spaces required of new construction, parking at parks and near
water increased or at least preserved.
31
More untimed parking spaces for employees
32
More crosswalks (see above) and some speed bumps to increase safety for all
33
Shuttles or trolleys
34
If possible increase the number of parking spaces.
35
additional free parking locations provided. please don't make parking paid. It would greatly decrease
our visits for dinner, etc
36
We need a parking garage!!
37
Create more public parking lots or a parking garage.
38
Increase commuter parking
39
A parking lot
40
We do not want bike share clogging the side walk. Look at the mess they've made in Seattle. Parking
enforcement needs to write tickets for people who can't park in the stall spaces.
41
More bike lockers near train for electric bikes
42
Use bank lots and add a lot somewhere nearby
Issue warnings instead of nasty hostile tickets for out of town visitors. That's such a dumbass policy
43
and I'm not even a biz person. Add bike lockers a few blocks outside of downtown. Build parking by
sewer plant
44
Parking garage, more available parking slots from closed or after hour businesses
45
The ONLY paid street parking should be Main and/or 5th. No others.
46
Bike shares are great, but are an eyesore. If this route is taken, please place them out of site - perhaps
behind Bank of America, 5 corners, etc.
47
No! To paid parking. Bring in rental scooters. Find opportunities for more parking
48
Would it be possible to rent from the banks and business that are not opened on Saturday. How about
a small simple gravel area in the civic field.
49
Require city and business employees to park further away than currently required.

No bike share programs! Seattle's street corners are littered with bikes. Please don't go that route!
58
A parking garage for all day parker's, like employees and owners, and commuters to use overnight.
59
More parking!
60
parking garage needed
61
Fine the way it is for us
The great thing about Edmonds parking is that it's not paid right now. It really makes it feel like a small
62
community. But Bay requiring people to pay and bringing in meter maids it really is bringing the big
city into a small town.
Keep parking free as that is one of the best parts of Edmonds. It feels welcoming! That is why we go to
63
Edmonds for dinner from Rb instead of going to Seattle. Add two more parking lots like the one
behind twist yoga, near the downtown area and that would solve the problem. Add a few 30 minute
parking spots too.
64
Shuttles for tourist trade, away from downtown. For example at Westgate or east of 99.1 will refuse to
pay to park in the town I've lived in for 60 years!
65
Build a parking garage!
66
Create pay to park lots near downtown. Crackdown on homeless camping out at waterfront 24/7
67
1 would have checked off shorter time limits but a lot of people coming to the movie theater need the
3 hours.
68
NO PAID PREMIUM street parking.
69
This may already be in effect, but opening up church parking lots (and similar lightly used lots) for
week night/weekend parking
We need more parking enforcement and it should be done with lesser paid staff. Probably should
70
consider charging for parking. Pricing for residental and employee permits should be increased. If we
go to charging for parking then citizens should be able to buy an annual permit. A plan should be
established that is self funded. The funds collected should enough to pay for enforcement.
No improvements are needed!!! This is not the role of government. If it is profitable for a business to
71
buy a lot and build a parking garage then let them. Stop subsidizing parking. Stop spending my
money on pointless studies and worthless projects!!!
72
1 think a lot of the parking is taken up by ferry users who are gone for extended periods of time.
Bike Share is completely irrelevant until the city makes the overall city more bike friendly. You wont'
73
decrease vehicle traffic by adding bike share when nobody in their right mind outside of downtown
would actually bike into the city with the lack of bike lanes connecting most of our neighborhoods.

82
Please don't change the vehicle parking situation to accommodate bikes. Bad idea!
It baffles me that there are no options presented here beyond parking, walking, and bikes. Buses,
jitneys, shuttles, ride share, valet --there are many more options than just figuring out how to handle
83
cars. Let's think outside the box: I would love to see the streets closed to private vehicles in the
downtown core. Frequent (every 5 mins) shuttles would allow people to circulate and reach remote
parking easily. A walkable core would yield a European -style downtown that would draw people from
all over.
84
Longer time limits are crucial if you want people to be able to walk and shop downtown and also have
time to have a meal at a restaurant.
85
See response to # 7 & 8 above
86
None. Stop spending our money.
87
Trolly. Possibly a centrally located (near 5th and main) underground parking garage. No above -ground
parking lots please. Lets keep Edmonds beautiful.
88
If you make street parking paid I am worried that many LOCALS will go elsewhere. I am not paying to
park in my hometown and will just keep going to Bar Dojo or Five =)
89
Any chance you can adjust signals at 3rd and Main when ferry is unloading?? Traffic gets backed up
past the train tracks.

Off street parking, and the conversion of Main between 4th and 5th to pedestrian only.
93

94
Permit zoned parking for downtown residents
private lots opened up to public parking after business hours, every new building needs to provide at

least 5 public spots as well as parking for their business owners or residents, a parking structure
wouldn't hurt anybody

Increased parking at the library/Frances Anderson Center! Those lots get filled quickly with folks going
101
downtown, and it's frustrating not to be able to park to go to the library.
We just need additional parking. If you knew the ridiculous amount of complaints from parking tickets
you wouldn't fathom shortening the 3 hour time limit or increasing patrols. Sad to say it, but edmonds
102
needs a parking garage for business owners and employees and then it would open up street parking
for visitors
103
Charging me to park in my own town seems excessive going this will not happen
104
Underground parking garages
105
better benches at bus stops..more bus advertising to alleviate need for parking
Shuttles for busy days from either the Center for the Arts or from Edmonds Woodway High School for
106
tourists. Residents should get free parking wherever they want.
107
No option
Please do not have paid parking. It will decrease tourism. And residents won't shop here if they have to

There are plenty of bike rakes people don't seem to use .... I don't see people "biking" to Downtown
109
Edmonds.... unless electric bikes become more popular ..it's a walking town .... foxing cracked sidewalks
should come first
110
Better distribution of bike racks. They are not always in convenient locations.
Move employee parking another block out of the downtown area (in all directions). Applaud the
bringing of trolley in for Saturdays! Continued use of business parking lots during off hours with clear
111
recognition of the business providing the benefit. Enforce individual owner's responsibility to keep
sidewalks clear of vegetation overgrowth to support safe walking.
112
We need a parking garage.
summer trolley on weekends with parking at the old Edmonds Woodway school lot more convenient
113
bus service to the Edmonds Center for the Arts - parking is a nightmare there
If paid parking is going to be enforced, then please make it so that residents of Edmonds receive a free

parking pass.
115
More parking lines
116
90 minute time limit on parking
We need a few more 4-way stop signs (especially near Sunset Avenue, Main St., and 2nd Ave N. where
117
cars go racing through between 3rd Ave. and the waterfront. Perhaps a shorter time limit in the area
around 5th and Main would be appropriate. No more than 2 hours.
118
1 think it is fine as it is
these point are a joke. So what you are saying you don't manage existing parking well. Shorter time
limits, that will work well for those who want to shop and maybe eat in town. Parking enforcement
has been a joke for the last 45 years. When I had my businesses, workers were to have a permit & park
in certain areas. That didn't work well they just in front of my business & other businesses. Paid
premium that will work well, that will just make people want to shop less in Edmonds. We do not
119
need anymore "streetscape & enhancements", we would just like sidewalks and roads repaired in a
timely manner. Get over the streetscape, fix the streets, sidewalks & build a garage. And how many
bike parking spaces do we need two. If you are talking about bike share you better look close at all the
negative issues with it. Bike share should in no way be owned or operated by the city. And how about
not charging residents in the bowl to park in front of their home, they pay taxes.

123
No bike or scooter sharing.
124
More handicapped parking in each block. Edmonds is aging and I now need a Walker
125
More parking options. Use existing land and create structure by courthouse and police dept
A well -placed parking structure would not distract from the city's ambience. Part of the beauty of
126
downtown Edmonds is there is "free" parking. Let's not become another Seattle. Use of business
parking lots after business hours would help --Everett does this and it is helpful.
127
Possibly a shuttle from large unused parking lot to downtown area
Perhaps a variety of time limits to suit different types of visitors, e.g., 30 minutes for a quick stop, 1
hour for a beverage, 2 hours for a meal, 3 hours for a movie, etc. To add additional parking (if we
128
must), partnering with ECA to add a second deck over some of their parking lot (NE corner) seems like
the best, and least disruptive, option.
Honestly I would not like to see any of these changes, adding the lines was great. I would be
129
disappointed if Edmonds started charging for street parking. If there was a parking lot, I could see that
having a small fee. But having to pay to run into a business for 5-10 minutes would be really annoying.
130
Leave street parking as is and add a garage for overflow
131
valet parking
132
Improved motorcycle/moped only parking. Encourage people to ride two wheeled vehicles in summer.

Get rid of the lines.. wastes extra space.
136
More parking spaces that is convenient to downtown.
Not sure if possible but maybe change some of the streets to one way and use the space from the
137
other lane to put in diagonal parking.
Please mark spaces so people are more aware of one space instead of taking up additional room so no
138
other car can park. Monitor parking, 3 hours is enough time to ship and dine. Signage to additional
parking where available.
Build public parking areas possibly paid parking in downtown core with a reasonable daily rate so we

you should be charging money to the owners of the apartment building / condos in downtown

Year round downtown trolley
142
It might be nice if we could make some blocks pedestrian only, especially on weekends.
143
More spots where you can squeeze them in! Better identify the individual spots, and ticket cars that are
not parked correctly.
Please don't charge for parking or limit parking times. I feel like we would visit Edmonds less of we had
144
to pay to park. Honestly I do not usually have issues finding a parking spot currently but a couple extra
parkinq stalls couldn't hurt.

More parking a few blocks from main. More lots like the one adjacent to the little one next to the
147
model train place.
148
What about making a couple streets "one-way" and using one side of the street for angle parking?
There should be a combination of parking durations allowed. Maybe on main/5th shorter bit longer on
other streets. Shouldn't be an either or this way it accommodates locals just meeting for lunch or
149
movie but also supports people visiting and wanting to wander and experience the town over a longer
period of time
150
The movie theater folks take too much street parking
151
StreetcarS more often
Parking lots. We keep adding businesses, but no parking is added. Daytime parking is a problem. IT's
152
hurting business
153
Directions to available lots.
154
More daytime parking lots
155
Maybe a parking garage with paid parking for merchants and train and ferry people.
156
Consider a shuttle bus from designated larger parking lots
Bus shuttle from waterfront to and around downtown-- not free, but sponsered by the city and paid
157
for out of budget plus fare box recovery-- like Sound Transit does!!
It's honestly fine how it is. Do not start a big share program - you'll end up with bikes abandoned on
158
every corner (and in resident neighborhoods).
Shuttle on weekends from some surrounding available parking areas such as local church parking lots
159
during times they are not in use.
160
No paid parking!!
161
Small, low-rise parking ramp
I live close enough to walk and have rarely parked downtown but have noticed the
confusion/congestion near Starbucks We have extra (3) spaces at our building and I believe out of
town folks use those spots when they can't find street parking. The apartments that were just built
within a loop hole in the law, without parking spaces, resulted in more on street parking spaces being
162
taken from guests. Ensure that loop hole is not longer allowed.Builders will need to comply with
parking spaces but within the design the committee agrees to for the downtown sector. I do not see
what is "boutique" about any parking garage. They are basically ugly and scary. How do we get around
those characteristics of a garage?
163
Pay parking garage
posted ride share, I'd be happy to pick up someone when I'm headed "uptown just need to know
164
who when and where!
165
Definitely no bike or scooter share.
166
Some parking areas in downtown Edmonds reserved for both residents and seniors by use of permits.

Question 8: Please mention any particular observations you have had
downtown parking that you wish the study and staff be aware M
Open-ended Response
Not sure if there is a space available for the future for a municipal paid parking garage a few blocks
away from the main downtown area. I have seen this used successfully in other towns similar to
169 Edmonds (in California). Can be used for beach goers, ferry hoppers, shoppers, lunch crowd, and
businesses.
Parking meters in front of businesses would not only create turnover of spaces but would also
170
generate revenue for the city of Edmonds.
Incentives for businesses to provide bus passes to employees. Build a small parking structure which
171
would be available for all day parking.
172
One or more additional parking structures
173
Underground garages
174
a parking garage
I remember my visit to Sun Valley, Idaho. FREE public transportation all day and into the evening,
175
sponsored by the business community. free parking outside the bowl with continuous shuttle service
not more than a 10 minute wait could help alleviate traffic as well as parking issues.
176
parking lots
We need Parking Garage(s) -- how about the City Complex lot? turn into a multi -level garage and
177
charge for parking. Or Port of Edmonds dirt lots, convert to garage and add shuttles.
178
Free parking garage under new construction proposed
Awful to increase price. A trolly such as the one that runs during the holidays is key. Year round and
179
especially evening and weekends
180
1 just want to say that it can be hard, in 3 hours, to go downtown for both dinner and a movie.
1 vote a definite NO on bike share or scooters. We do not have the sidewalks space for the bikes, and
181
the scooters are just a huge safety hazard in our pedestrian -crowded downtown.
182
Parking garage
183
Multi-storey Parking garages
Clearly designated accessible spots on main streets. Also - I know it's not a popular option - but I'm not
opposed to a garage with fees. Don't like the idea of fees for street parking, and think current 3 hour
184
limits are great. A garage or lot (or a couple, spread out), with moderate fees for anything over 3+
hours, would be highly preferable to cramming in more street parking.
185
No bike share
Civic field needs to consider parking. Not only to help with downtown parking events but also for the
safety of those that use the field. The location of the fire and police department with the emergency
vehicles need a clear pathway to return and exit. It would be most important to provide an off the
186
street drop off and pick up with some parking to protect children and families from street traffic and
emergency vehicles. It would be advantageous to include this into the plans now then to destroy part
of the expensive development after the park is finished. Protect those who will use the area by some
means. Families deserve a drop off area at the minimum for this area.
Before my accident and now not being able to walk, I would enjoy looking for a space in Edmonds. It
was fun to see all the different beautiful streets and then walking to my destination. If people want to
187
visit Edmonds, they should understand that they may have to walk a few blocks. What is wrong with a
little exercise and without your phone in your hand...
188
Lots more disabled parking spaces.

Open -ended Response
radiate the parking zones from the core (fountain) as the shortest time and allow for longer parking
190 the further from that zone. Parking meters in the core zone could assist in turnover, perhaps having
them only input a license plate number to get a ticket at no cost, good for 1 hour. Similar in the zones
offering longer stays.
Make parking available for free at the park next to the Boys and Girls Club during the renovation of
191
that area. Also, the new "bumpouts" being done are narrowing the streets and making it dangerous
for bikers to avoid cars.
Consider ways to help traffic flow at pedestrian crosswalks. The circle on Main, 5th and Dayton, and
192
some other intersections can be very congested as people cross in all directions, sometimes in
succession, leaving traffic to back up and not respond to 4-way stop rules correctly when trying to get
through. Signals? Pedestrian all -way options? Not sure.
The tick marks have been a great help! I see people trying to observe the the designated spots to allow
193
more people to park. 3 hour parking is perfect. It's plenty of time to dine & shop.
Better access to downtown Edmonds by bike. Add safe bike lanes to the main entrances to downtown
194
Edmonds and safe places to park bikes. Increase transit!
195
Parking garage paid by the city
More employee parking areas that aren't blocked off when there is construction. Residents and
196
employees of Edmonds should not have to pay for parking, paid premium parking should be reserved
for visitors.
197
Obviously there isn't enough employee parking or the 3 hour rule should not apply to employees.
198
Increased employee parking zones.
199
Free shuttle, off street pay parking.
200
Wide enough spaces for larger vehicles. Shuttles for events.
201
Where is parking. Garage option?
202
Parking garage. (What a leading question)
203
Shuttle service
Increased parking options and other car friendly solutions do not solve traffic problems. They
encourage additional traffic. Any solution implemented to ease traffic will immediately be insufficient,
no matter the scale. Instead look to alternative transit solutions, peripheral commuting lots where
visitors can park outside the downtown area and take public shuttles. Please also consider the
204
outlying areas of Edmonds, especially along 99. There is significant room for improvement in the
atmosphere and hospitality of this "desolate" area, without causing gentrification. Edmonds is more
than just downtown and the bowl. Lastly, Edmonds could be made a car free city. There is simply no
room to accommodate the volume of traffic we will experience over the next several decades. Look to
cities like Paris for solutions, and electric -assisted personal transport like segways, scooters, and bikes
to replace cars in downtown streets.
1 do not shop or go to lunch in Edmonds because of lack of parking. Business fail due to lack of
205
parking.
On issue is the lack of longer parking when attending meetings at City Hall. if you are attending an all
206
day workshop at the City's Brackett room you have to move your car part way through the day. That is
an unnecessary announce, maybe have parking passes for folks attending meetings at the City's Offices
207
Keep parking free

210
Or ability to pay for parking using an app like Seattle
A parking structure within 4 blocks of downtown would be preferred vs shorter parking times or paid
211
parking spaces in existing infrastructure. I would take a longer walk to location that keeps the
Edmonds feel over a shorter walk that has other drawbacks.
212
none of the above. Leave the parking as is.
Maybe parking garage for employees at other site and more customers would have more available
213
parking in the street of downtown
214
1 am against pay -to -park in Edmonds.
215
Again parking enforcement should consider multiple tickets for car sitting all day.
216
Shuttle service like the On & Off Streetcar.
217
No bike shares, please. Unless you want us to look like Seattle with bikes dumped all over the place.
218
Less permit parking.
Perhaps building a garage, or encourage businesses to allow parking in their lots either for free or for
219
pay after business hours.
220
Don't approve new builds that don't include parking for residents/businesses.
221
Small parking structure
I am a member of Floretum garden club. 3 hour parking is not enough time for our meetings. We do a
222
lot for the city and need some consideration.
The only real solution is a paid parking garage (designed in an aesthetic way - i.e. Edmonds sewage
treatment plant that looks like a park). If it's built near the core of downtown (fountain roundabout),
223
the streets surrounding the fountain could be closed to traffic and be made for pedestrians only. Our
downtown core could become a bigger tourist draw then it already is.
A parking structure, at some point, is going to be extremely necessary especially as mentioned in the
article regarding the growth of Lynnwood and Mountlake Terrace. The city has worked hard to make
224
Edmonds a destination and it is truly a jewel. Can our current parking handle that many new county
residents wanting to come enjoy our beautiful city? So much better to be prepared, if possible. Let's
have some major future plans in this study and not be focused only on the present.
225
a paid parking building in the downtown core.
A time limit of 2 hours would be sufficient for 99% of our visits, including special events/festivals. The
only time we would need more is when watching a movie at the theater. Please make sure movie-
226
goers won't get ticketed if the time limit decreases. More publicity for businesses that allow after
hours parking would be great.
227
It's very complex.
228
More electric charging / parking spaces.
Better communication/marketing of available areas to park. Better enforcement of library parking. Paid
229
parking lots but not paid street parking
230
More wheelchair accessible spots
231
A designated parking facility that would help pay for itself through hourly, daily and monthly rates.
232
Low rise parking garage
Make sure parking is included for any development planning both commercial and residential. Offsite
233
parking for city employees who can be shuttled into town.
234
Clearly marked parking spaces on all streets.

Hell NO trash piles of bikes
None. Why doesn't the City do anything about the pedestrians that are dying trying to cross Hwy 99?
This is just another example of the the Edmonds Bowl and the "other Edmonds". The city needs to
241
spend staff time and money trying to fix more important issues. Is there anything more important
than the safety of our citizens?
Partnership with more businesses like the banks for after hours parking. I would love to ride the
242
trolley, but none of the stops are easily accessible. Could it also stop at Edmonds United Methodist
church P&R do i could park and take the trolley in?
Utilizing parking after hours at banks is great, and using church lots during the week makes a lot of
243
sense. Are there other similar solutions?
244
continuous shuttles on schedule at a nominal fee
245
Bridge to walk over train tracks
not sure enforcement is the solution that seems prehistoric, yet I know that the City has purchased
more enforcement vehicles and more employees, so that decision seems to hav e already been made
I am already paying for premium on street parking with a pass, but most people I speak with about
246
parking in the neighborhood seem to think we are just another revenue source and not a solution to
the parking issue. The City has kicked this can so far down the road that you are really up against it
now and these are band aids to the problem. Politics has gotten us here, and politics rarely seems to
find real solutions, I would love to be surprised when a solutiuon happens
I think the parking around the Artworks and nearby street could be reconfigured to have more
parking. Is the fence necessary. Could we use space around the Wastewater Treatment building?.
247
Perhaps make that part of 2nd one way. I think there are possibilities there not now taken advantage
of.
248
Build a parking garage that is free, much like downtown Redmond does.
Better bike parking at the library? I don't understand why they don't use the bike stands that are there.
But several times I get to the library and find a bike locked to the handrail I need to get from the
249
parking lot to the library. (I am at the library at least twice a week.) Yes there is a ramp I can use but
that is a lot more painful steps I don't want to take.
A two hour time limit might be be better than the current 3 hours, if there were alternatives during
250
events such as the Farmers Market & special events such as the Fourth of July parades & the Taste of
Edmonds. (I take the bus to the former & stay away from the latter.)

272
children from our club. And their is only 1 Handicapped parking space in front of our building. I don't
even know where another space is located.
Expand supply. Small above ground 2nd level parking garage at EDC or at 4th and Bell govt property.
With 10,000 more in population expected from cities adjacent to Edmonds need to factor that
273
explosion of population visiting Edmonds. So there will be more cars in the next 10 years. People could
pay for parking at a garage to fund it and maintain it. Easier parking in garage than parallel parking for
many.
274
Residential permits.
Unfortunately, I think it would be a shame if the city of Edmonds started charging for street parking.
The city is charming, but might want to focus on supporting the residents of Edmonds and not trying
275
to attract everyone from Seattle. I would be more likely to explore downtown frequently if I didn't
have such a hard time parking there.
There seems to be only one bus that serves the downtown area. I would commute by bus but it

More wheelchair accessible spots
56
Better communication/marketing of available areas to park. Better enforcement of library parking. Paid
parking lots but not paid street parking
57
More electric charging / parking spaces.
58
It's very complex.
A time limit of 2 hours would be sufficient for 99% of our visits, including special events/festivals. The
59
only time we would need more is when watching a movie at the theater. Please make sure movie-
goers won't get ticketed if the time limit decreases. More publicity for businesses that allow after
hours parking would be great.
60
a paid parking building in the downtown core.
A parking structure, at some point, is going to be extremely necessary especially as mentioned in the
article regarding the growth of Lynnwood and Mountlake Terrace. The city has worked hard to make
61
Edmonds a destination and it is truly a jewel. Can our current parking handle that many new county
residents wanting to come enjoy our beautiful city? So much better to be prepared, if possible. Let's
have some major future plans in this study and not be focused only on the present.
The only real solution is a paid parking garage (designed in an aesthetic way - i.e. Edmonds sewage
62
treatment plant that looks like a park). If it's built near the core of downtown (fountain roundabout),
the streets surrounding the fountain could be closed to traffic and be made for pedestrians only. Our
downtown core could become a bigger tourist draw then it already is.
63
1 am a member of Floretum garden club. 3 hour parking is not enough time for our meetings. We do a
lot for the city and need some consideration.
64
Small parking structure
65
Don't approve new builds that don't include parking for residents/businesses.

Question 9: What types of parking/transportation improvements would you like to
see in Downtown Edmonds? Check all that apply.
Multiple Choice; Other (please specify)
66 Perhaps building a garage, or encourage businesses to allow parking in their lots either for free or for
pay after business hours.
67
Less permit parking.
68
No bike shares, please. Unless you want us to look like Seattle with bikes dumped all over the place.
69
Shuttle service like the On & Off Streetcar.
70
Again parking enforcement should consider multiple tickets for car sitting all day.
71
1 am against pay -to -park in Edmonds.
72
Maybe parking garage for employees at other site and more customers would have more available
parking in the street of downtown
73
none of the above. Leave the parking as is.
A parking structure within 4 blocks of downtown would be preferred vs shorter parking times or paid
74
parking spaces in existing infrastructure. I would take a longer walk to location that keeps the
Edmonds feel over a shorter walk that has other drawbacks.
75
Or ability to pay for parking using an app like Seattle
76
Unsure
77
Out of downtown parking with frequent shuttle service
78
Keep parking free
On issue is the lack of longer parking when attending meetings at City Hall. if you are attending an all
79
day workshop at the City's Brackett room you have to move your car part way through the day. That is
an unnecessary announce, maybe have parking passes for folks attending meetings at the City's Offices
80
1 do not shop or go to lunch in Edmonds because of lack of parking. Business fail due to lack of
parking.
Increased parking options and other car friendly solutions do not solve traffic problems. They
encourage additional traffic. Any solution implemented to ease traffic will immediately be insufficient,
no matter the scale. Instead look to alternative transit solutions, peripheral commuting lots where
visitors can park outside the downtown area and take public shuttles. Please also consider the
81
outlying areas of Edmonds, especially along 99. There is significant room for improvement in the
atmosphere and hospitality of this "desolate" area, without causing gentrification. Edmonds is more
than just downtown and the bowl. Lastly, Edmonds could be made a car free city. There is simply no
room to accommodate the volume of traffic we will experience over the next several decades. Look to
cities like Paris for solutions, and electric -assisted personal transport like segways, scooters, and bikes
to replace cars in downtown streets.
82
Shuttle service
83
Parking garage. (What a leading question)
84
Where is parking. Garage option?
85
Wide enough spaces for larger vehicles. Shuttles for events.
86
Free shuttle, off street pay parking.
87
Increased employee parking zones.
88
Obviously there isn't enough employee parking or the 3 hour rule should not apply to employees.
More employee parking areas that aren't blocked off when there is construction. Residents and
89
employees of Edmonds should not have to pay for parking, paid premium parking should be reserved
for visitors.

90 Parking garage paid by the city
91
Better access to downtown Edmonds by bike. Add safe bike lanes to the main entrances to downtown
Edmonds and safe places to park bikes. Increase transit!
92
The tick marks have been a great help! I see people trying to observe the the designated spots to allow
more people to park. 3 hour parking is perfect. It's plenty of time to dine & shop.
Consider ways to help traffic flow at pedestrian crosswalks. The circle on Main, 5th and Dayton, and
93
some other intersections can be very congested as people cross in all directions, sometimes in
succession, leaving traffic to back up and not respond to 4-way stop rules correctly when trying to get
through. Signals? Pedestrian all -way options? Not sure.
Make parking available for free at the park next to the Boys and Girls Club during the renovation of
94
that area. Also, the new "bumpouts" being done are narrowing the streets and making it dangerous
for bikers to avoid cars.
radiate the parking zones from the core (fountain) as the shortest time and allow for longer parking
95
the further from that zone. Parking meters in the core zone could assist in turnover, perhaps having
them only input a license plate number to get a ticket at no cost, good for 1 hour. Similar in the zones
offering longer stays.
96
A boutique type parking structure as with greenery and murals as mentioned in the article
97
Lots more disabled parking spaces.
Before my accident and now not being able to walk, I would enjoy looking for a space in Edmonds. It
98
was fun to see all the different beautiful streets and then walking to my destination. If people want to
visit Edmonds, they should understand that they may have to walk a few blocks. What is wrong with a
little exercise and without your phone in your hand...
Civic field needs to consider parking. Not only to help with downtown parking events but also for the
safety of those that use the field. The location of the fire and police department with the emergency
vehicles need a clear pathway to return and exit. It would be most important to provide an off the
99
street drop off and pick up with some parking to protect children and families from street traffic and
emergency vehicles. It would be advantageous to include this into the plans now then to destroy part
of the expensive development after the park is finished. Protect those who will use the area by some
means. Families deserve a drop off area at the minimum for this area.
100
No bike share
Clearly designated accessible spots on main streets. Also - I know it's not a popular option - but I'm not
101
opposed to a garage with fees. Don't like the idea of fees for street parking, and think current 3 hour
limits are great. A garage or lot (or a couple, spread out), with moderate fees for anything over 3+
hours, would be highly preferable to cramming in more street parking.
102
Multi-storey Parking garages
103
Parking garage
104
1 vote a definite NO on bike share or scooters. We do not have the sidewalks space for the bikes, and
the scooters are just a huge safety hazard in our pedestrian -crowded downtown.
105
1 just want to say that it can be hard, in 3 hours, to go downtown for both dinner and a movie.
106
Awful to increase price. A trolly such as the one that runs during the holidays is key. Year round and
especially evening and weekends

109
parking lots
I remember my visit to Sun Valley, Idaho. FREE public transportation all day and into the evening,
110
sponsored by the business community. free parking outside the bowl with continuous shuttle service
not more than a 10 minute wait could help alleviate traffic as well as parking issues.
111
a parking garage
112
Underground garages
113
One or more additional parking structures
Incentives for businesses to provide bus passes to employees. Build a small parking structure which
114
would be available for all day parking.
Parking meters in front of businesses would not only create turnover of spaces but would also
115
generate revenue for the city of Edmonds.
Not sure if there is a space available for the future for a municipal paid parking garage a few blocks
away from the main downtown area. I have seen this used successfully in other towns similar to
116
Edmonds (in California). Can be used for beach goers, ferry hoppers, shoppers, lunch crowd, and
businesses.
117
Free beer.
118
1 am not opposed to paid parking in the core of our town.
119
Some parking areas in downtown Edmonds reserved for both residents and seniors by use of permits.
120
Definitely no bike or scooter share.
posted ride share, I'd be happy to pick up someone when I'm headed "uptown just need to know
121
who when and where!
122
Pay parking garage
I live close enough to walk and have rarely parked downtown but have noticed the
confusion/congestion near Starbucks We have extra (3) spaces at our building and I believe out of
town folks use those spots when they can't find street parking. The apartments that were just built
123
within a loop hole in the law, without parking spaces, resulted in more on street parking spaces being
taken from guests. Ensure that loop hole is not longer allowed.Builders will need to comply with
parking spaces but within the design the committee agrees to for the downtown sector. I do not see
what is "boutique" about any parking garage. They are basically ugly and scary. How do we get around
those characteristics of a garage?
124
Small, low-rise parking ramp
125
No paid parking!!
Shuttle on weekends from some surrounding available parking areas such as local church parking lots
126
during times they are not in use.
It's honestly fine how it is. Do not start a big share program - you'll end up with bikes abandoned on
127
every corner (and in resident neighborhoods).
Bus shuttle from waterfront to and around downtown-- not free, but sponsered by the city and paid
128
for out of budget plus fare box recovery-- like Sound Transit does!!
129
Consider a shuttle bus from designated larger parking lots
130
Maybe a parking garage with paid parking for merchants and train and ferry people.

132 Directions to available lots.
Parking lots. We keep adding businesses, but no parking is added. Daytime parking is a problem. IT's
133
hurting business
134
Streetcars more often
135
The movie theater folks take too much street parking
There should be a combination of parking durations allowed. Maybe on main/5th shorter bit longer on
other streets. Shouldn't be an either or this way it accommodates locals just meeting for lunch or
136
movie but also supports people visiting and wanting to wander and experience the town over a longer
period of time
137
What about making a couple streets "one-way" and using one side of the street for angle parking?
More parking a few blocks from main. More lots like the one adjacent to the little one next to the
138
model train place.
139
Better signage. Well lit parking areas for safety when alone.
Parking garages - demolish the ancient gymnasium next to ECA and make it a parking garage. Build an
140
underground lot under the Frances Anderson field. Convert the gravel lots at the marina into parking
decks and have year round trolley service
Please don't charge for parking or limit parking times. I feel like we would visit Edmonds less of we had
141
to pay to park. Honestly I do not usually have issues finding a parking spot currently but a couple extra
parking stalls couldn't hurt.
142
More spots where you can squeeze them in! Better identify the individual spots, and ticket cars that are
not parked correctly.
143
It might be nice if we could make some blocks pedestrian only, especially on weekends.
144
Year round downtown trolley
you should be charging money to the owners of the apartment building / condos in downtown
145
Edmonds who don't have their owners or renters paying the park so they park on the street
Build public parking areas possibly paid parking in downtown core with a reasonable daily rate so we
146
can all enjoy our homes and businesses.
Please mark spaces so people are more aware of one space instead of taking up additional room so no
147
other car can park. Monitor parking, 3 hours is enough time to ship and dine. Signage to additional
parking where available.
Not sure if possible but maybe change some of the streets to one way and use the space from the
148
other lane to put in diagonal parking.
149
More parking spaces that is convenient to downtown.
150
Get rid of the lines.. wastes extra space.
151
More awareness of parking spots outside of Main Street and the busiest parking areas
152
Handicap available
153
Improved motorcycle/moped only parking. Encourage people to ride two wheeled vehicles in summer.
154
valet parking
155
Leave street parking as is and add a garage for overflow
Honestly I would not like to see any of these changes, adding the lines was great. I would be
156
disappointed if Edmonds started charging for street parking. If there was a parking lot, I could see that
having a small fee. But having to pay to run into a business for 5-10 minutes would be really annoying.

Multiple Choice; Other (please specify)
Perhaps a variety of time limits to suit different types of visitors, e.g., 30 minutes for a quick stop, 1
hour for a beverage, 2 hours for a meal, 3 hours for a movie, etc. To add additional parking (if we
157
must), partnering with ECA to add a second deck over some of their parking lot (NE corner) seems like
the best, and least disruptive, option.
158
Possibly a shuttle from large unused parking lot to downtown area
A well -placed parking structure would not distract from the city's ambience. Part of the beauty of
159
downtown Edmonds is there is "free" parking. Let's not become another Seattle. Use of business
parking lots after business hours would help --Everett does this and it is helpful.
160
More parking options. Use existing land and create structure by courthouse and police dept
161
More handicapped parking in each block. Edmonds is aging and I now need a Walker
162
No bike or scooter sharing.
How about real solutions not fantasy island bike shares? You think 75 year old residents going to
163
participate in a bike share in mid November in rain and wind? So silly
164
No bike shares please. To congested .
165
Parking garage
these point are a joke. So what you are saying you don't manage existing parking well. Shorter time
limits, that will work well for those who want to shop and maybe eat in town. Parking enforcement
has been a joke for the last 45 years. When I had my businesses, workers were to have a permit & park
in certain areas. That didn't work well they just in front of my business & other businesses. Paid
premium that will work well, that will just make people want to shop less in Edmonds. We do not
166
need anymore "streetscape & enhancements", we would just like sidewalks and roads repaired in a
timely manner. Get over the streetscape, fix the streets, sidewalks & build a garage. And how many
bike parking spaces do we need two. If you are talking about bike share you better look close at all the
negative issues with it. Bike share should in no way be owned or operated by the city. And how about
not charging residents in the bowl to park in front of their home, they pay taxes.
167
1 think it is fine as it is
We need a few more 4-way stop signs (especially near Sunset Avenue, Main St., and 2nd Ave N. where
168
cars go racing through between 3rd Ave. and the waterfront. Perhaps a shorter time limit in the area
around 5th and Main would be appropriate. No more than 2 hours.
169
90 minute time limit on parking
170
More parking lines
If paid parking is going to be enforced, then please make it so that residents of Edmonds receive a free
171
parking pass.
summer trolley on weekends with parking at the old Edmonds Woodway school lot more convenient
172
bus service to the Edmonds Center for the Arts - parking is a nightmare there
173
We need a parking garage.
Move employee parking another block out of the downtown area (in all directions). Applaud the
bringing of trolley in for Saturdays! Continued use of business parking lots during off hours with clear
174
recognition of the business providing the benefit. Enforce individual owner's responsibility to keep
sidewalks clear of vegetation overgrowth to support safe walking.
175
Better distribution of bike racks. They are not always in convenient locations.

There are plenty of bike rakes people don't seem to use .... I don't see people "biking" to Downtown
176 Edmonds.... unless electric bikes become more popular ..it's a walking town .... foxing cracked sidewalks
should come first
Please do not have paid parking. It will decrease tourism. And residents won't shop here if they have to
177
pay.
178
No option
Shuttles for busy days from either the Center for the Arts or from Edmonds Woodway High School for
179
tourists. Residents should get free parking wherever they want.
180
better benches at bus stops..more bus advertising to alleviate need for parking
181
Underground parking garages
182
Charging me to park in my own town seems excessive going this will not happen
We just need additional parking. If you knew the ridiculous amount of complaints from parking tickets
you wouldn't fathom shortening the 3 hour time limit or increasing patrols. Sad to say it, but edmonds
183
needs a parking garage for business owners and employees and then it would open up street parking
for visitors
Increased parking at the library/Frances Anderson Center! Those lots get filled quickly with folks going
184
downtown, and it's frustrating not to be able to park to go to the library.
185
More parking available in general
I think it's fine how it is. Add shorter times and folks feel rushed through their shopping or dinner,
186
longer times are pointless.
187
I see there to be no problem with the current parking situation in downtown Edmonds.
188
Parking lots added or some we can use on certain days or events
Either parking lots or a garage could be pay -to -park for visitors, and residents could have exemption
189
stickers for their windshield.
private lots opened up to public parking after business hours, every new building needs to provide at
190
least 5 public spots as well as parking for their business owners or residents, a parking structure
wouldn't hurt anybody
191
Permit zoned parking for downtown residents
192
1 swear to goodness if you guys start charging for parking you will loose a voter and a supporter.
193
Off street parking, and the conversion of Main between 4th and 5th to pedestrian only.
194
tenants should not be allowed to park on 5th or Main street within 2 blocks of the fountain.
195
shuttle service from ferry, marina area, downtown core and perhaps the park.
Any chance you can adjust signals at 3rd and Main when ferry is unloading?? Traffic gets backed up
196
past the train tracks.
If you make street parking paid I am worried that many LOCALS will go elsewhere. I am not paying to
197
park in my hometown and will just keep going to Bar Dojo or Five =)
Trolly. Possibly a centrally located (near 5th and main) underground parking garage. No above -ground
198
parking lots please. Lets keep Edmonds beautiful.
199
None. Stop spending our money.

Multiple Choice; Other (please specify)
It baffles me that there are no options presented here beyond parking, walking, and bikes. Buses,
jitneys, shuttles, ride share, valet --there are many more options than just figuring out how to handle
cars. Let's think outside the box: I would love to see the streets closed to private vehicles in the
202 downtown core. Frequent (every 5 mins) shuttles would allow people to circulate and reach remote
parking easily. A walkable core would yield a European -style downtown that would draw people from
all over.
203
Please don't change the vehicle parking situation to accommodate bikes. Bad idea!
204
An employee parking lot of the services workers downtown
205
no paid parking, more angle parking
206
Better bike lanes
I feel there is actually a lot of parking in Edmonds compared to other communities I have lived in.
207
Sometimes I have actually wondered what people are complaining about. Walking a few blocks to
your destination is no big deal for some people.
208
Use existing city property to build a garage for business employees and visitors to park.
209
Designate two blocks of 5th as a pedestrian boulevard and block from vehicle traffic during weekends.
210
It would be nice to have some designated employee parking only.
211
Increase the price/cost of parking tickets
Bike Share is completely irrelevant until the city makes the overall city more bike friendly. You wont'
212
decrease vehicle traffic by adding bike share when nobody in their right mind outside of downtown
would actually bike into the city with the lack of bike lanes connecting most of our neighborhoods.
213
1 think a lot of the parking is taken up by ferry users who are gone for extended periods of time.
No improvements are needed!!! This is not the role of government. If it is profitable for a business to
214
buy a lot and build a parking garage then let them. Stop subsidizing parking. Stop spending my
money on pointless studies and worthless projects!!!
We need more parking enforcement and it should be done with lesser paid staff. Probably should
consider charging for parking. Pricing for residental and employee permits should be increased. If we
215
go to charging for parking then citizens should be able to buy an annual permit. A plan should be
established that is self funded. The funds collected should enough to pay for enforcement.
This may already be in effect, but opening up church parking lots (and similar lightly used lots) for
216
week night/weekend parking
217
NO PAID PREMIUM street parking.
1 would have checked off shorter time limits but a lot of people coming to the movie theater need the
218
3 hours.
219
Create pay to park lots near downtown. Crackdown on homeless camping out at waterfront 24/7
220
Build a parking garage!
Shuttles for tourist trade, away from downtown. For example at Westgate or east of 99.1 will refuse to
221
pay to park in the town I've lived in for 60 years!
Keep parking free as that is one of the best parts of Edmonds. It feels welcoming! That is why we go to
Edmonds for dinner from Rb instead of going to Seattle. Add two more parking lots like the one
222
behind twist yoga, near the downtown area and that would solve the problem. Add a few 30 minute
parking sots too.

The great thing about Edmonds parking is that it's not paid right now. It really makes it feel like a small

A parking garage for all day parker's, like employees and owners, and commuters to use overnight.
228
No bike share programs! Seattle's street corners are littered with bikes. Please don't go that route!
229
Make one way streets. Make parking // parallel vs how it is done know.
230
look into parking garages at municipal surface parking lot and Anderson center
231
More electric parking. Parking garage and or trolly to service downtown Edmonds. Safer bicycle
parking (theft).
232
Electric bike for all of edmonds hills to allow people to go between neighborhoods without needing a
car
233
More plug in stations
234
A mix of short and longer intervals for parking
235
Nothing. It's fine. Don't charge for parking. If the City does, I will run for mayor on a "get rid of paid
parking platform" and win. You guys don't want me as mayor, so don't do it.
236
Require city and business employees to park further away than currently required.
237
Would it be possible to rent from the banks and business that are not opened on Saturday. How about
a small simple gravel area in the civic field.
238
No! To paid parking. Bring in rental scooters. Find opportunities for more parking
239
Bike shares are great, but are an eyesore. If this route is taken, please place them out of site - perhaps
behind Bank of America, 5 corners, etc.
240
The ONLY paid street parking should be Main and/or 5th. No others.
241
Parking garage, more available parking slots from closed or after hour businesses
242
Issue warnings instead of nasty hostile tickets for out of town visitors. That's such a dumbass policy
and I'm not even a biz person. Add bike lockers a few blocks outside of downtown. Build parking by
sewer plant
243
Use bank lots and add a lot somewhere nearby
244
More bike lockers near train for electric bikes
245
We do not want bike share clogging the side walk. Look at the mess they've made in Seattle. Parking
enforcement needs to write tickets for people who can't park in the stall spaces.
246
A parking lot
247
Increase commuter parking
248

Bike share would help immensely - I would use it in a heartbeat! Downtown also doesn't have very
many bike racks. I feel strongly that Edmonds should not have paid parking, at least until bike share &

261
A parking garage is greatly needed. Use the trolly car peak evenings and all day of weekends
262
Trolly
As an elderly walker, every trip from home is a broken hip waiting to happen due to uneven sidewalks!
Some of my guests prefer to walk in the streets rather than risk damaging their limbs by tripping on
263
the sidewalks. If you want the numbers of walkers to increase, fix the sidewalks! Many of us could walk
to more destinations, rather than park, if the sidewalks were repaired.
264
Free shuttle up and down fifth Avenue. Starting where the condos begin all the way to the fountain
265
Weekend trolly around to different shopping spots.
266
Nothing. Leave it alone.
Increased bus service on Saturdays and Sundays (every 30 min instead of every 60 min). Dedicated
267
ADA parking and/or load zones for passengers.
For longer time limits: I know we don't have the money or the will, but a parking garage is more
efficient than a parking lot for long-term (ferry) parking. Not sure where it could go to comply with
Edmonds building height. I think we already have the right amount of parking enforcement. One final
268
thought - we probably would not have this problem but because Edmonds has become a destination
town ... thus encouraging people from other towns to visit Edmonds. This is great, I am glad it is
happening but shouldn't those businesses carry most of the responsibility for solving the issue.
269
A dedicated parking structure.
Shorter time limits to parking spaces right in front of a business such as banks, hair salons, restaurants
270
etc. Not three hours, but only one or two. Add paid parking meters to all of downtown to help pay for
a multi level parking structure.
I think there needs to be better parking for businesses. There are so many businesses downtown, that
there needs to be places for their employees to park. Otherwise, you will drive out the businesses of
271
downtown. I love working here - but in the winter time it is COLD and rainy, and walking 2-3 blocks to
work, because I only have a half block of parking next to my work building, is just not enjoyable. I
think more streets should include employee parking permit spaces.
272
Abolish all parking laws.
273
1 selected one option above, but I am not sure any of the suggestions are great.
Why has the city neve considered a parking garage? Is it because of appearances? Would certainly add
274
space and some could be allocated as permit only parking.

Question
9: What types of parking/transportation improvements would you like to
see in
Downtown Edmonds? Check all that apply.
Multiple Choice; Other (please specify)
Increased employee permit parking spaces are needed. When we come to Edmonds for other reasons
275
(shop, dine, etc.) we generally can find parking.
276
More parking for employees working at local businesses that aren't 3-5 blocks away.
277
Partnerships with private businesses/churches for more parking lots
Advertise/open up Port bus to walkers from Ferry, bus, train, etc. to encourage time spent up in
278
Downtown.
Enforce fines for employees and business owners parking on the street taking up valuable space for
279
customers. Especially restaurants and real estate offices.
If you come for the Saturday market beginning at 9:00, continue to shop at the local business and then
280
have lunch, you will be here for more than 3 hours. The 3 hour parking limits can be a problem.
Develop a full time or at least peak time (weekends, special events, holidays, etc.) trolley system in a
281
public private (read down town business contributions) consortium. Have this run up to the 99
corridor with stops all along the route to town and back.
Encourage (fine) business owners and staff not to take valuable customer parking spaces. Please
282
include restaurants, banks, salons and real estate offices in the target.
283
Valet for downtown businesses during peak times

1 1. No garage 2. No lots 3. Increase shuttles for large event weekends
2
With the number of grandfathered in commercial businesses that do not provide parking stalls, a
parking garage is becoming a necessity.
3
With any new condo or apartment construction, require that each building provide enough parking
for its residents. Do not turn Edmonds into another Ballard.
4
Wish the announcement of the meeting for parking study came before, not after the meeting.
5
Why would I go to a book store, restaurant, etc. where I have to pay for parking when there are plenty
close by that I don't have to pay for?
6
Why is it always about Downtown ?
7
While I live downtown I am unable to work very far and I do not have a handicap sticker. So parking is
critical for me.
What about underground parking garages beneath buildings? Whether residential or business (or a
8
combination of both), parking can be made available for customers and residents to park beneath the
building so that it could free up street level parking for other visitors or those not intending to go to a
specific destination.
We would spend a lot more time and money shopping if parking weren't such a problem. We find
9
ourselves avoiding downtown on weekends, and that's disappointing because we love our shops,
restaurants and theater, not to mention the performing arts.
10
We should only be concerned about Edmonds residents and not be catering to those who live
eksewhere, The outlying cities should provide park and ride facilities into Edmonds
11
A parking structure that would allow for more cars to be parked in the downtown area.
We really need to think "smart". Edmonds has grown past a comfortable capacity. It's difficult to find a
12
place to park at even at PCC and QFC. And, commuting along 9th Ave is slow and congested. Let's say
"no more growth in the Edmonds bowl". Stop the greedy developers, please! They are going to ruin
our beautiful seaside town.
13
WE need to encourage in and out of town residents to visit and spend money at all of our businesses
to keep our present character alive and well
14
It would be nice for residents that have to park on the street to have a permit so parking enforcement
knows that we are residents and only have access to street parking
It would be great if there were options to better utilize the lot at the city safety complex on 5th and
15
Bell. If some police cars or other city vehicles could be relocated, it would be great to provide
additional public parking at that location.
16
It seems there is a reluctance to even consider parking garage. Please be open to this as well as other
short term solutions.
17
It needs to be better than it is know, but it should not cost the thousands in survey after survey. Use
people's ideas, they do know something and the ideas are not costing you millions.
18
We need to changed zoning for new builds all throughout Edmonds to mandate more parking spots
per unit or biz size than the existing code requires
It might help to work with some businesses with large parking lots outside the downtown core if they
are on the bus route. There are very few places to park in downtown Edmonds if you are walking on
19
the ferry & planning to spend the day. I would be willing to pay a merchant for a day day pass. It could
work like small parking lot behind Top Pot doughnuts. Five Corners & James Village both have parking
lots that could accommodate a few spaces & they are right on the bus route to the ferry already.

20 It isn't unmanageable now, except on special event days. Maybe increasing use of Edmonds trolley to
swing by a large parking lot area on weekends / busy times?
21
Kirkland has similar issues with parking and ended up making some streets one way to create better
parking. Perhaps we can learn from their own experience.
It is not realistic to try pushing people to walk or use public transportation to get to downtown
22
Edmonds. We don't want buses driving down Main Street! And many of our residents are too old to
walk more than a couple of blocks.
23
Let the citizens work on this, not some blow heart Consultant
24
It is not hard to find parking if you can walk a few blocks.
25
Let's hear from the city planning department and other city employees that are getting feedback from
the public. Also let's hear feedback from Ed! And DEMA because they hear firsthand from people
Level sidewalks. Hate tripping because of ambulatory issues from postpolio syndrome and arthritis.
26
Businesses that don't enforce their own parking and handicap parking issues. That's one of the reasons
I no longer shop or participate in Old Mill Town businesses.
27
It can suck!!!!
28
Local, regular shuttle radiating out of and into downtown.
29
We must require that each new development provide adequate parking for its users. The key word
here is adequate!
30
The addition of after-hours parking in specific lots is definitely a good thing.
31
Thankyou for your time and consideration to find ways to help our beloved town be more user
friendly. I love our town =)
It appears the City Council is "fast tracking" this $92,000 study. The short 2 week comment period for
residents implies the decision has been made and is nothing more than a courtesy comment period.
Has the Council already committed and schedule the study to begin the end of August. I would ask
"Why?" We all know the outcome of a study, it's obvious... increased traffic and not enough parking.
The real work surrounding this issue is to identify common sense solutions that meet the goals and
priorities of this community. So instead of wasting our money, logic says we the residents and local
businesses should be the ones on a committee to firstly identify the goals for both residents and
32
businesses of downtown Edmonds and to prioritize those goals. Secondly, the committee can identify
common sense solutions and conduct some research into what has worked in other small waterfront
towns in similar situations. The majority of people that reside in the Bowl are the people truly
impacted by steps taken to address traffic and parking issues. Personally, I moved here to be able to
walk to town, enjoy the environment of a small town and the waterfront. Please don't rush forward
and change the quality of life for the people that live here. I am sure there are common sense
solutions and I'm also sure that people of this town are willing to discuss and decide what will work of
those impacted. I strongly oppose moving forward with a study conducted by outside influences. Try
smaller steps before rushing forward.

Low-rise parking ramp needs serious consideration to increase capacity.

Thank you for your timing looking into this complicated problem. Your efforts are appreciated.
42
Increase your accessibility to downtown businesses or lose your visitors. People coming from the
Olympic Peninsula will avoid you.
Make community survey much more available to residents. These type questions are difficult to know
43
they are being asked. Lots of residents work full time and don't know that businesses and seniors are
driving decisions for the entire community.
Thank you for your time and consideration in this matter. I know this is no easy task, and you can't
please everybody. I just know that I love Edmonds, and I love working here - but parking is getting
44
harder and harder. If I arrive by 8:00 am, I can park two blocks away from my work. If I am here by 8:30,
1 can park three blocks away. If I leave for an appointment and come back, I have circled the block for 2-
3 times before finding parking - and finally parking in a non -permit zone, and setting a timer to re -park
my car during my work day. Please help the workers of downtown Edmonds businesses!!
45
Make sure all new buildings etc are required to have parking for tenants
In the study we need to account for the visitors who come to town. We also need to account for the
46
traffic of Edmonds residents who live outside the bowl but want to come to DT. This should be
quantified in some way to understand is the parking shortage due to DT residents, Employees, other
Edmonds residents, and visitors.
47
Thank you for the opportunity to provide input.
48
Make the tourists pay not us. They will hardly feel the expense we feel it much more.
Many of my friends now need a close space to where we want to shop. We NEED a handicapped spot

should not be there.
50
Thank you for sharing this survey!

Mark all the spaces and people will observe the space limited to one car instead of parking
inconsiderately and taking up two spaces.

Maybe allow a little more leeway when giving tickets. Employees parking downtown are concentrated
on working, not paying attention to if their car needs to be moved for retail patrons.

Maybe if Edmonds had its own shuttle service all the time (or at least during peak periods and all

time.

61 Metered parking is never desired, but is inevitable in any growing city; could help pay for a shuttle
system. Inviting growth without off street parking will ruin this town --visit Ballard lately?

Thank you for offering this study for us to fill out.
Monitor and patrol homeless sleeping in cars at the waterfront areas. I know .... I live down here and see
63
it 24/7. Edmonds is not a campground. They are also starting to sleep on the beach at night. Bad for
tourism.
64
If you lean towards bikes and offering riders more street space in place of parking you can rest assured
I will take my business out of Edmonds.
65
More electric parking.
66
Thank you for involving the community. Please heavily consider the negative visual aspect of large
parking lots or garages for those of us who live downtown.
67
More handicap parking on Main Street and on both sides of the street!!!! You might consider having a
disable person discuss these issues with you.
68
If merchant wants to build, maybe they should include parking garage for the new building. It would
be good for their business if people didn't have to walk 2 to 5 blocks to get there.
We have been spoiled for years with free downtown parking. While I enjoy that, I think it's time to
69
consider paid parking in the shopping core. The City needs to have revenue to help pay for parking
and street improvements. Paid parking will also encourage alternate transportation modes such as
bike or bus.
70
More handicaped parking
More people moving north, more businesses that are bringing more cars this issue and compounding
71
and needs to be addressed now or people are going to start to get a bad taste for how difficult it is to
get around.
72
Parking lots or garages in out-of-the-way places, with buses or trolleys to go to various areas in town.
73
Thank you for initiating this effort!

If like the idea that businesses such as banks are opening up their lots to parking in the evenings
outside of their business hours.

Most of my concerns are about employee parking permit areas because that is my biggest problem.
Just want to state that I am older (77) and cannot walk long distances.
76
Multilevel parking for commuters on the train.
77
If it is easy to park downtown more people will shop there.
78
Thank you for giving the residents a chance to voice their opinions.
My concern is about the increase of ferry commuters on foot and the sounder train riders. Buses would
79
be okay and a park and ride lot would be nice for commuters. That would help keep the cars off of the
main streets downtown
80

If Community Transit had increased service, then more people would use the bus to get to downtown.
But with limited service, not many people will view Community Transit as an alternative to parking in
81
downtown Edmonds. Of course Community Transit has the problem that they have limited ridership
as it is - so they can't justify increased service. But without increased service - they will have a difficult
time growing their ridership. It is a problem for them.

I'm glad to see this survey out! It's great for us to see at least an investigation into solutions:)
Parking in Edmonds has always been a BIG issue, BUT NOTHING ever gets done. Same old, same old
the last 45 years. The city did not need a fancy round about at 5 Corners where the large plants cover
up the expensive sculpture. Yes part was grant money from the state, big deal that's a nice way of
saying tax payers money. The city or art commission did not need to spend money on lights on 4th
91
Ave to land an small airplane. Don't know who thought that added anything to our town. The city has
also made parking worse on Sunset, should be angle in parking. Build a parking garage and people
will come. Don't build a garage down by the waterfront. Better idea is a parking garage at play field
as the city owns the land, and it looks pretty bad anyway. There is plenty of room for a garage, play
field, skate park & Old Red Building.

I would not like to see PAID parking come to downtown Edmonds. It is not resident or visitor friendly.
113
The exception would be to pay for an eventual parking garage for which a fee should be charged.
However, I think a parking garage should be the very last resort.
I just go to Lynnwood to shop or to the Postoffice before I even think of trying to park in Edmonds. No

I live in the bowl and rarely need to park downtown but, when I do, it has really never been a big
115
problem as I do not mind walking an extra block or two. In fact, at age 74, 1 enjoy walking extra for the
exercise.
I live work and play in downtown Edmonds and have seen the growing interest in visiting our
beautiful and engaging downtown. I have also seen increased frustrations of clients to our business in
having to walk blocks to get to their appointment or being late for a scheduled appointment. I think
this could be solved by making the numbered streets in downtown Edmonds one way. Angle in
parking on one side of the street and thru traffic on the other would double the amount of available
116
spaces without having a parking garage. If the spaces nearest the businesses were metered this could
generate income for the city and offset the initial expense of installation. There could also be a few
special brightly colored meters installed that the proceeds from that particular meter would go into a
special fund to support our local Edmonds charities and could be changed on a monthly basis. Thank
you for giving me the opportunity to share my idea. Cynthia Ratliff

1 question the need for an expensive parking study. What happened to common sense?
I really appreciate businesses that let us park at night and weekends. My bank, bank of WA now sound
credit Union was gracious to do this. I was so excited to see the building on the corner of sixth and
Main provide parking at night and on weekends and then I realized they put up a box so that we can
118
pay to park there off hours. That was a big disappointment. It was my understanding that there is
supposed to be a parking garage at the ECA. I would start there, perfect place for a big parking garage
and not very far from the hubbub. I still prefer free.
119
Don't build parking garages.
Don't spend moneyjust to accommodate special functions in town. Look how far people are willing to
120

Don't make us start paying for parking!! It's so nice to be able to just go down and park for free for the

Does the city own any nearby property, outside of the core downtown, where a parking structure
123 could be built (no more than 3 stories high, not blocking anyone's views)? Then a shuttle service to
downtown could be employed for the public and/or employees of downtown businesses to use.
Do we really need another study? Let's actually use the information obtained in this study. This issue
has been talked to death! We live in a small community and are fortunate enough to have a fabulous
124
thriving downtown, with that comes it's challenges. At least we don't have empty streets; which means
empty restaurants and stores! We have more good to focus on!
125
Do not waste $92,000. to study parking. I personally do not want more parking.
126
Do not utilize open/green space for parking. We need to preserve that.
Do not open the door to paid parking except Main and/or 5th. Once that door is opened it will spread

and only grow.
128
Do NOT meter the parking.
129
Do not allow for removals or reductions in parking spaces for new buildings/ renovations in bowl.
Do interviews of shop owners and random interviews of people in downtown area - don't hire a
130
consultant that "knows it all" or just compares to other areas - get direct local input from parking users,
and business owners who depend on customers having easy access to their business.
Developing a huge new park (Civic Field) without consideration for parking is asinine. Some thought
into another revenue source instead of relying on a grant with severe restrictions should have been
131
undertaken. I guess the horse is out of the barn on this, but so much could have been done to solve
some of our parking problems in the city managers had one iota of common sense. That there were
lots of opportunities for public input is bs and just excuse making. Remember the Connector fiasco?
Currently we do not get a lot of input about lacking parking in downtown. Our customers seem to
132
find spaces and spend a good amount of time in our store and Edmonds.
Coordinate with Sound Transit to leverage the $40 million in parking funds in the ST3 budget for
133
Edmonds & Mukilteo
Continue with free parking, parking lines on all street parking to enforce proper parking, optional paid

lots.
The city took spots away and made it worse last time they "improved"the parking. Sure expect them
135
to do a better job the go round. I've lived here 41 years of my adult life. Left Seattle. Don't make
Edmonds a Little Seattle. Washington can only handle one at best. Seattle is a disaster!!

As a resident downtown I can walk most places, but to support the businesses downtown I think more
turnover and management of business lots when they are not open (such as bank lots when bank is
closed). I've also noticed by Sunset 190 where the sounder parking is, the signs indicate it's Sounder
140
parking only and people I know are concerned to park in those spots in evenings. In the evening there
are no sounder trains and commuters have left. Can signs indicate more clearly when sounder parking
is enforced? It's Poor use of parking space if it's only sounder 24/7.

As a long-time resident (back to 70's "Deadmonds" days), I remind people that a busy, vibrant
downtown is a great "problem" to have! Let's not forget this! The city is a living, dynamic, and
interactive place. If everyone has to walk at least a block or two to their destination, that is not a bad
141
thing. I love hearing visitors on the sidewalk exclaim in surprise as they discover our movie theater or
bakery or bookshop or whatever. Better keep restocking the green umbrella supply for the wet days
though!

144
Any new buildings added should include adequate parking for tenants
An open, security monitored garage would be great if free and doesn't block view or take away from
145
downtown vibe.
Parking time limits should allow patrons of downtown sufficient time to conduct business or pleasure
146
without being rushed.
147
Also, no sunset connector.
Parking would be great but it comes at a cost of more traffic. Ferry area gets dangerous with
148
offloading and cars/pedestrians in the area. Would be great to be able to park on outskirts and take a
shuttle into town or some smarter method to limit car traffic downtown.
We do not need to spend 10s of 1000s of dollars for an outside company to give us the same basic
149
answer to parking problems they give every city. It needs to be done by the city and residents who live
the parking problem.
Again I think we need to ask -do we really want to create additional parking? We have strong special
interests in Edmonds who still fight for the mythical "quaint little village." They are quite willing to let
us spend time, effort, and money studying this and then kill it. We need to get them to commit early
150
or drop this whole thing. Questions such as are you willing to support additional taxes; will you
support a three story structure in downtown; will you use a parking garage 3-4 blocks from your
destination; for example, need to be asked and answered as a preliminary to any study.
A partnership with the ECA for a parking garage would be helpful. This would open up parking a short
151
walk from downtown when the city is busy and relieve street parking when the ECA has a concert or
event.
152
N/a
153
?
Please DO NOT waste money on a "parking study'. We all know that there are parking issues at peak
154
times. We do not need to spend money to figure that out. I believe a trolley/shuttle service offered
during peak times would be beneficial for visitors, similar to what is offered for the Arts Festival.
155

I would not be in favor of a garage being built.

Please don't make like downtown Seattle. No paid parking!! People who are capable, can walk. There is

Please don't turn into a pay to park. I am in downtown Edmonds multiple times a week and will stop
161
coming if you charge for a parking place
162
don't ruin the charm and quaintness of downtown Edmonds; think of the people
163
A portion of the civic center should be give up for parking.
Please don't make it paid parking, I really couldn't afford to pay for parking every night i work. This is
164
not Seattle.
165
Please increase time limits so I can shop more!
166
Please please consider this as I don't make enough to continually pay for parking tickets
No bike or scooter shares please. The bikes get trashed and get left in inconvenient and inappropriate
167
places. Can the new buildings condo/businesses on the ground floor have underground public
parking?
Please do not encourage more parking in town with a parking lot, because of increased congestion
168
and hazards for pedestrians. Do not allow construction vehicles and equipment to take over street
parking long term (such as at the Post Office!)
169
1 would not be in favor of a downtown garage unless it were built below -ground.
170
Please put parking structures below ground.
The Administration should negotiate with churches to use their parking lots during non -church use
171
hours and make sure signage is available. Like the church by Civic Field that has one service a week.
Please use the expensive parking study's results to take some action and not shelf it like the last ones.
Be also aware that there will always be the complaint of parking even when there is plenty of parking
172
available within one or two blocks. It is a normal problem for any downtown area to have and in
actually it would be worse for business owners to have a lot of parking available. In reality it is a good
problem to have, meaning there are lots of customers who want to patronize our business.
173
No commercial or private construction without an aggressive parking plan for either structure.
Thank you for considering this topic. It is definitely one that affects just how attractive or unattractive
174
employment in the downtown Edmonds area is.
Potential multistory parking could be at the following locations 4th Ave S and Dayton 200 block of
175
Main St 200 block of 5th N
Put it in a parking garage for business owners and employees. Give them a safe space to park for their
entire shift without the threat of being ticketed and it will open up so many parking spots for visitors.
176
Of course a parking garage would face backlash but every other option that has taken place has had
backlash as well
177
no meters and more parking lots
178
Don't see current situation as a problem, but some minor changes may be helpful
179
Put more of those green/lime bikes around downtown.

Pedestrian safety and enforcement. Cross walks in many areas hard to see walkers clearly. Light on
main street very helpful if walkers use it. Enforce pedestrians to use cross walks and also not to jump
180
out without looking at both crosswalks and non crosswalks. I pretty much now stop at every cross
walk because walkers pay so little attention
181
Remember we need to encourage tourists and support all of our small businesses
182
No need for parking garage. People need to start walking.
Remove the parked Rv's. They make downtown look like little Seattle. Plus clean up the streets and the
183
area around the ferry. Move the homeless out and off the beach!! We should not turn a beautiful little
town into a cess pool.
184
We could use a parking garage. Have those wishing to park there pay for time used.
1 would like to see the downtown core —one block each direction around the fountain be a pedestrian
185
only area. Like a European square.
Review other smaller towns in the area to get ideas on improving parking. Use of drones to provide an
186
aerial view of parking throughout the day to look for patterns
Right now I shop and eat in downtown Edmonds a lot. If you start charging for parking, or giving me
187
tickets when I've stayed more than 2 hours, I'll take my business to Lynnwood instead.

Seems parking should have been addressed from the start.
Downtown is cute and quaint, which is part of what makes the town so special. I do think we need less
198
cars downtown, and we need more public transit options (busses that run more often).
199
No parking structure! Do not induce more demand for cars.
Several off -site parking areas with free trolley service to downtown. Make it an inviting and stressless
mode of transportation. Include periodic incentives like raffles from downtown businesses to
200
encourage riders to leave their cars further away. Make it a win -win for everyone and lessen traffic in
downtown.
201
Shuttle service to downtown from outside the bowl on a known route.
Some amount of parking congestion is good for downtowns. To my knowledge, there is not a serious
202
problem needing an expensive solution.
I would like to see more creative use of resources we already have in our community! For instance,
working with Holy Rosary Parish to utilize their two parking lots. Improving 7th Ave and adding in
203
angled parking for Civic Park. There are many options that do not result in paid parking or building a
parking garage. I am very much against a parking garage and think that charging for parking degrades
the friendly nature of Edmonds.

Some of the parking improvement suggestions given above in the survey would make anyone who
lives and works in downtown Edmonds upset. No one who comes into this area daily is going to be ok
with having to pay for parking in high use areas. Downtown Edmonds is a small place, so most of 5th
ave and Main St would be considered high use areas, but those areas are where the shops are ... many
people just want to park and run in to the businesses to buy something whether it's a gift or coffee.
204
For those that are wanting to spend a couple hours dining somewhere or doing work on their laptop
in a coffee shop, they are going to be willing to walk a few blocks to their destination. Maybe making
the high use areas have a shorter free time limit to help with greater and easier turnover will help with
this problem significantly. Making people pay for parking will just cause grumbling and complaints as
people will think they're in an offshoot of a big city and not in our quaint little downtown.
Spend money wisely to make parking more available so those of us who live downtown can enjoy our
205
streets and keep it safe for families.
STOP the insane apartment building ....... allow Edmonds to stay Edmonds....... it's ok to close the
206
growth...... that's what the current residents want, it's why we bought here...
The only parking issues are Saturday morning, because of the choice of venue for the Saturday market.
207
Move the Saturday market away from downtown, and there won't be any problems.
208
No rental bikes
209
Stop wasting tax money on "parking"

215

are wonderful Don't mess with our town too much please!!!!! We like it just the way it is
We always walk but note that sidewalk cafes have extended into sidewalks to extent it blocks

217

1 would be happy to give my business to local shops and restaurants, but as a disabled person, parking
221
is scarce for me, so I take my business into Lynnwood where most businesses have their own parking
222
Not enough, need another way to get seniors closer to the businesses when they cant walk distances
The Sounder train parking lot could be made available in evenings for waterfront and for the new
223
senior center for added parking.
Edmonds is a wonderful place. While I expect there to be increasing visitors over time, I hope the city
224
also avoids the temptation of increased density as it will out even more strain on resources like
parking, waterfront access etc.

Not sure what is wrong with the survey or my computer but it wouldn't let me write in answers for
225
write in questions. I am opposed to a parking garage in edmonds.
226
Nothing
227
Nothing else can think of
228
Waste of taxpayer money. This is not the role of government.
I will say again, the more difficult and expensive you make it for me to come downtown, the less of my
229
business you will get. Remember that we all have other options and can take our business elsewhere.
If there was a free step on/step off shuttle running along Edmonds Way that could be really nice.
230
Nothing waste of money
231
Nothing.
Edmonds residents should be able to park longer periods of time without being charge as we already
232
pay taxes
Observation: people often leave their dogs too near the crosswalk while they run into grab a coffee at
233
Starbucks and when they are sitting outdoors at Starbucks. There is a thin walkable space there, when
you take into account the table seating and the beautiful planters. Sometimes the dogs are tied there
too near the actual street or too near pedestrians.
234
Offer free bus rides from the train station to 5 corners and vise versa
The tic marks really helped parking. They were just the right size. Lots of times I see people leaving so
235
much space on roads that were not done where multiple cars could have fit easily had they all parked
in tic spots. I like that Edmonds doesn't have paid street parking.
Once the parking study is completed and has recommendations, please pay attention to the results
236
and not let politics, friendships, financial alliances or past grievances be part of the final decision -
making. Also, traffic control/planning should also be a part of the decision -making to better serve our
community.
1 think we should use the empty lot on 2nd & Main to have a large public parking garage as part of the
237
new structure.
One low-rise or underground lot with fees would allow longer term off-street, freeing up shorter term
238
spaces in front of merchants. Two Hours free = enough time to have lunch or browse if longer term
parking is off-street.
239
Open business lots for after-hours parking
240
Waste of money!!!!!!!!!!
241
Open more off -hours bus
242
Employee parking permits or a parking lot or a parking lot with transportation to downtown
243
Overall I have no problems with parking and find it just fine the way it already is.
Paid parking and enforcement will not help, if it did work Ballard and other communities would be a
244
parking utopias, keep offering antiquated solutions that already have proven not to work, but make
people feel good like bike shares and walking all BS!
245
Parallel parking lessons for older residents (Just kidding!)
There are plenty of places to park. You may not be able to park adjacent to where you care to visit, but
246
there are plenty of places to park.

Response
I think the challenge is to ensure parking availability/restrictions meet the needs of the surrounding
business and residents. I hope the study can look at where businesses/facilities are located that have
need of longer parking terms (i.e. meeting or event spaces) and the available spaces meeting those
247
needs within a reasonable walking radius. One great outcome of the study may be information that
could be published, promoted through signage, etc. so that residents and visitors can easily identify
where to park relative to the length of time they plan to stay.
Parking encourages driving and vehicle traffic. We typically consider the needs of drivers over
248
pedestrians and cyclists. This needs to be flipped. That being said, more parking needs to be
designated as disabled spaces for those with mobility impairments.
249
Parking garage
250

251
Waste of money and staff time.
Add a 2nd level of parking in the west side of the lot behind the building that houses the council and
252
police dept. Have a one way in and one way exit. Something like that could also be done at the ECA
parking lot on the north side. Just considering that there isn't many open land possibilities ... just go up
one level to parking areas we already have. Save our open land.
Employees who build the economy of this city should not be penalized for parking outside their
253
workplaces.
There needs to be a parking area available (paid or unpaid) that is reserved for longer visits Visitors
254
need some area that they know WILL have availability, even if they have to pay for it.
255
1 think if everyone was willing to walk a few blocks there wouldn't be nearly the perceived outcry...
Walkability is central to Downtown's charm, let's find solutions that keep it that way and don't increase
256
feeling of density! North and south end paid lots could really help.
Think big .... and long term ..... be bold! No short term thinking with easy, low-cost, partial fixes that
257
don't really address the problem in the long term.
258
Enforcement team for summer weekends
259
Very against paid parking
I so appreciate this survey and hope to see swift action so that this little town can continue to be an
260
amazing local place to eat, drink and play.
261
Think transit, not parking.
262
Use of existing parking lots during peak times such as Holy Rosary's lot
263
Especially keen on the idea of bike share options to account for lags in bus availability
1 really like the coordination with businesses to use their lots when they are closed. More of that, even
264
if it requires some sort of incentives for businesses, should be pursued.
Explore options for one way streets to increase parking by converting to angled parking spots. 4th Ave
265
N from Main St going one way to the Edmonds Center for the Arts and 4th Ave S from Main St going
one way to Walnut St. Similarly one way Railroad Ave from the ferry dock to Dayton St.
Free parking away from downtown with a shuttle might be good for peak hours. A parking garage
266
would be nice. The letter outlining population growth in surrounding areas was significant
information.
267
Free parking is a big deal to both Edmonds residents and visitors!
Free parking makes Edmonds a valuable alternative to Seattle and increases the likelihood that people
268
will patronise downtown. PLEASE don't take it away.

Downtown Parking Study or downtown parking in general:
Open-ended Response
Generally I find parking downtown fairly easy, and only run into issues when other drivers don't make
269 full use of parallel parking spaces.
It's an issue, but not that bad. Just don't go to paid parking!!!!! I hate Kirkland and Ballard for this
270
reason.
271
Good luck! Please don't add bike lanes!:)
Good luck. I have visited Edmonds for over 30 years and nothing yet has moved the employees and
272
business owners out of the downtown area. I have to say with the addition of the Parking Officer a few
years, the commuter situation with overnight Parker's seems to be better.
Great to see that downtown is busy and it offers many restaurants and events. The Saturday Trolley is
273
fun, would be great if it could be expanded to go more East of downtown such as up to 9th Avenue
where people could catch a ride up the hill during summer and Christmas Holidays.
274
Have a lot, specifically for ferry riders.
how about less focus on art and more on infrastructure like our roads!!! Stop focusing on what "may"
275
happen to what is happening.
276
How and where to add parking lots
I am downtown walking almost daily. I drive to get there and I frequent the coffee shops. I think 3-hour
limits work well in the core area. It covers movies and dining out, but dissuades ferry parking to give
277
access to all. Maybe put in some long-term parking for those using the beaches, the Senior Center and
attending events, and the trains, along Railroad Avenue's east side, from Dayton south
1 am in favor of parking garages/shuttles/trolleys or anything else that is easy to hop on and move folks
278
around.
1 appreciate not having to pay for parking in my town. Please do what you can to not include paying
279
for parking. Maybe some people will want prime parking spots at a price, but not me. Thanks!
1 appreciate the ability to offer comments and not be required to answer all questions, especially when
280
my preferred option is not available! thank you for that!
Just can't stress enough how often I complain to my waking buddy and point out lousy parking jobs or
281
how many more cars could fit in an area if the lines were extended just a few feet
I believe it's ok to walk a few blocks from parking to one's ultimate destination. In fact, I'm a fan of
central business districts that have made streets pedestrian -only. Driving through the intersection of
282
3rd and Main on market days is insane so let's try doing what we do for Halloween, car shows, etc.:
Let's close off Main and 3rd on Saturday mornings and make the entire core pedestrian -only.
1 come to downtown Edmonds about once a week and don't have a problem finding a place to park. Is
283
parking really a problem? really a problem?
284
1 did on a previous question, but a trolley or small bus that runs up and down 5th as well as Main on a
consistent daily schedule would be a help.
1 don't feel that there is a real parking shortage. If you build a parking garage people won't want to
285
park there because it won't be right in front of the business they want to visit.
1 don't go Downtown in the summer if I don't have to because of traffic and parking I want to be able
286
to go in the summer but too frustrating.
I don't have any issues with the current parking situation in downtown Edmonds. My family can almost
287
always find free parking a reasonable distance from where we are going and with kids, that is
important. I do not want shorter time limits or added costs for parking.
288
I don't see any huge problem for people who can walk a couple blocks.

1 feel like a parking garage just outside the core of the downtown area would have the least impact on

290

292

I have increasingly avoided downtown Edmonds on Saturdays due to parking and driving challenges.
293
Could the Saturday Market be moved to Sunday or relocated to the new park?
294
1 honestly don't have an issue with the current parking.
Just reiterating that I don't usually have any issues finding parking downtown. A simple solution may
295
be leveraging some places that already exist like allowing people to parking in the Bank of America
Parking Lot when it is closed. Please, please, please do not start charging for parking.
296
Keep it free otherwise it's going to cause a huge drop in visitors.
