years in assisting with the 4th of July. He chaired the 4th of July parade for 12 years; every year on July 3
he said it would be the last year. However, on the 4th of July, the smiles, happiness and joy he saw in on
everyone’s faces made him return for another year. He thanked Carolyn LaFave for her support during the
years he chaired the 4th of July. He summarized his volunteerism is a commitment of love to the
community and all its citizens.
7. PROCLAMATION IN HONOR OF FRIENDS OF THE EDMONDS LIBRARY WEEK ~

Packet Page 5 of 342
Mayor Earling read a proclamation declaring October 19 - 25, 2014 Friends of the Library Week in
Edmonds and urged all citizens to recognize and applaud their invaluable service.
A member of the Friends of the Edmonds Library thanked the Mayor Earling and Council for
appreciating what 150 volunteers do for the library by helping with the book sales and all the programs.
She accepted the proclamation on behalf of all the Friends of Library which she noted includes some
Councilmembers.
8. AUDIENCE COMMENTS
Charles Tuura, Edmonds, presented statistics related to the number of deaths annually from alcohol (1.8
million), tobacco (4.6 million), guns (32,000) and pharmaceutical overdose (22,000); no one has ever died
from a marijuana overdose. In 1998, 59% of Washington voters approved medical marijuana. As a
medical marijuana patient who has a difficult time getting round, it is a travesty that he has to leave the
community to get his medicine because he does not want to take narcotics or other drugs that have side
effects. The Council was elected to do the will of their constituents, not their personal beliefs, their
pastor’s beliefs or their donor’s beliefs. Legalized marijuana is far safer than drugs, alcohol and guns. He
pointed out there is a pharmacy across the street from Edmonds-Woodway High School and questioned
why a marijuana store had to be 1,000 feet from a school when marijuana has never killed anyone.
Kurt Greiner, Edmonds, spoke in favor of the train horn quiet zone. The initial discussions were about
additional gates without horns which led to concerns about safety. A quiet zone proved to be too
expensive and likely would have required a local improvement district so the discussion turned to
wayside horns. The City tested wayside horns in 2010 and 2008; a wayside horn is located at the crossing
and has the same decibel (dB) level as a train whistle but is sounded only at the crossing. A train sounds
its whistle 10-15 seconds before it reaches the intersection. A wayside horn is also directional and one
contractor calculated 98% of the affected area would experience a lower dB. The estimated cost provided
by two contractors is $200,000 - $250,000. His group also supports the train trench; the study being
conducted will determine whether it is feasible. The train trench would solve the sound problem because
trains would not sound their horns but the wayside horns could address the problem in the years before a
train trench is built. He provided petitions with signatures of 236 people.
Roger Hertrich, Edmonds, referred to Agenda Item 10 where the City Council will endorse I-594. He
also referred to I-591 that takes an opposite stance. He explained passage of I-594 will possibly make
what he does criminal, loaning his extra gun to his son or a friend when they go hunting without going to
dealer to transfer the firearm. This treads on his rights as an individual to trade or transfer a firearm.
Criminals’ guns are often stolen or traded for drugs and those transactions are not reported. Passage of I-
594 does not solve the problem as that type of transition will continue. He urged the Council to stick to
the business of running the City and keep out of citizens’ business.
9. EDMONDS LIBRARY UPDATE
Tim Healey, Chair, Edmonds Library Board, explained the Library Board is a five member
advocate/advisory group appointed by Mayor Earling. The current members are Joyce Hudemann, Joanne
Peterson, Susan Schalla, Wendy Hendall (Secretary) and himself. Board members serve five year terms
and meet every month to review policies, rules and regulations related to the use of the library and its
facilities, but most importantly, they are advocates for the library and its services and programs. He
invited the Council to the Library’s open house on Sunday, October 19 at 1:00 p.m. which will include
refreshments, free flu shots, bikes awarded by the Edmonds Masons for summer reading programs and
other fun activities.
Packet Page 6 of 342
Mr. Healey introduced Lesly Kaplan, Edmonds Library Manager. She displayed information about the
library’s 2014-2016 values, purpose, strategic focus and services. She described Sno-Isle’s values:
• Free and equal access to information, knowledge, literacy and learning
• Freedom to seek, receive and share information
• Power of community and culture
• Literacy and learning
• Stewardship of public resources
• Respect for individuals
The strategic focus over the three years will be achieving outcomes that will lead to the success of Sno-
Isle communities and region. She invited everyone to visit the Edmonds Library, find opportunities for
advancement, education, technology access, joy and discovery in an open and inviting community space.
She provided 2013 statistics for the Edmonds Library:
• Edmonds borrowers – 32,242
• Door count – 700/day/average
• 352 programs presented attended by 9,681 people
• Circulation – almost half million checkouts and renewals
Edmonds Library’s strategic focus includes:
• Provide access to information and communication technologies
• Capable, trained customer service staff
• Building literate communities
o Baby Story Time
o Adult resources
She summarized a library is not a luxury but one of the necessities of life (Henry Ward Beecher). The
library is open a large variety of hours, seven days a week and 24 hours a day online and programs and
services are always free with a Sno-Isle library card. She looked forward to seeing the community at the
library virtually or in person.
Ms. Kaplan announced she will be retiring in December. She has been with the library for many years and
it is a wonderful place to work and forge community relationships. She was grateful for the time she has
had to work in Edmonds.
Council President Buckshnis thanked her for the great job she has done.
Councilmember Peterson thanked her for everything she has done for the library, commenting the
Edmonds Library is a pillar in the community. He wished her joy in her retirement.
10. PUBLIC COMMENT AND POTENTIAL ACTION ON THE FOLLOWING STATE INITIATIVE:
INITIATIVE MEASURE NO. 594 CONCERNS BACKGROUND CHECKS FOR FIREARM
SALES AND TRANSFERS. THIS MEASURE WOULD APPLY CURRENTLY USED CRIMINAL
AND PUBLIC SAFETY BACKGROUND CHECKS BY LICENSED DEALERS TO ALL
FIREARM SALES AND TRANSFERS, INCLUDING GUN SHOW AND ONLINE SALES, WITH
SPECIFIC EXCEPTIONS. SHOULD THIS MEASURE BE ENACTED INTO LAW?
[ ] YES
[ ] NO
Mayor Earling asked City Attorney Jeff Taraday whether this would satisfy the requirements under State
law. Mr. Taraday explained this had to come back to the Council because, under State law, if the City
Council wants to take action to support or oppose a ballot measure, a specific procedure needs to be
followed which includes incorporating the ballot time in any required meeting notice. The only additional
Packet Page 7 of 342
requirement is that equal opportunity be allowed for speakers for and against the initiative. It does not
matter if there happen to more people speaking on one side that the other as long as the Council had
provided equal opportunity to speak for or against. After the Council hears the public comment for and
against, it can deliberate whether to adopt the resolution.
Mayor Earling opened the opportunity for public comment.
Ross Dimmick, Edmonds, former hunter, intercollegiate target shooter and US Olympic Team finalist,
commented I-594 was a gun control law written by gun control advocacy groups whose ultimate goal is to
outlaw gun ownership. Approximately $7.6 million has been raised, advertising I-594 as a way to close
the gun show loophole. He questioned why 18 pages were necessary to close the gun show loophole when
some states already have this requirement. I-594 would put in place the most onerous restrictions in the
country on law-abiding gun owners, restrictions that have nothing to do with gun sales. I-594 is about
transfers although transfers are not mentioned in the ads; the word transfer appears over 60 times in the 18
page initiative. According to the definitions in the initiative, a transfer is the intended delivery of a
firearm to another person without consideration of payment or promise of payment. Under this broad
definition, for every gun sale there can be hundreds of transfers over the time an individual owns a
firearm, especially a hunting rifle or shotgun. For example, physical possession is transferred while
loading gear for a trip, among friends shooting at cans, or a son leaving his bird gun with his parents
while in college or military deployment. Under I-594 every transfer is illegal, punishable as a felony
unless it falls within one of seven narrowly defined exceptions which are crafted to appear reasonable
when they are actual traps for legal gun ownership. The most problematic of the exceptions is the family
exemption; this exemption does not cover a son borrowing his father’s shotgun to go hunting. He
questioned how I-594 would make the public safer and urged the Council vote not to support the
initiative.
Leah Burnstein, Edmonds, said I-594 is a public safety issue. There is FBI data and research that shows
states with a universal background check system have 38% fewer women killed in abusive situations and
39% fewer police officers killed. I-594 opponents seem misinformed; the examples the previous speaker
provided are addressed by provisions in the initiative. The 18 pages cover numerous exceptions for
antique weapons, loaning a gun to a friend while hunting, gifting a firearm to a family member; all of
those are allowable under I-594. A complete PDF of I-594 is available on the Washington Alliance for
Gun Responsibility website. I-594 is an expansion of the current background system; it is designed to
close the gun show and private sale loophole that allows criminals to evade a background check. To the
argument that criminals will steal guns and/or get guns other ways, she pointed out stop signs are not
removed because people don’t obey them, speed limits are not abolished because people exceed the speed
limit, drunk driving laws are still enforced even though drunk driving still occurs and background checks
are still conducted for people who work with children even though because predators still prey. I-594 is
an opportunity to put in place a requirement that already exists and works in other states. She urged the
Council to support the initiative.
Kristen Meilicke, Edmonds, explained I-594 does not prevent law abiding citizens from buying or
selling guns, it does not prevent the sale or purchase of guns through online sites, it simply requires that
the exchange of the gun happen at a licensed gun dealer so that a background check can be performed. I-
594 does not move closer to outlawing guns. I-594 contains exceptions that cover everything the previous
speaker mentioned, it does not apply to gifting a gun to a family member, to antiques or relics, to the
temporary transfer of a weapon for self-defense or to loaning a gun for hunting or sport. The authors of I-
594 recognized that those things happen and should not be illegal or require an instant background check.
I-594 will prevent someone from buying a gun at a garage sale. She did not object to a law-abiding citizen
buying at gun at a garage sale, she did object to a convicted felon or someone convicted of domestic
abuse or has a restraining order against them from buying a gun without a background check which I-594
will prevent. I-594 is not the final answer to gun crime and gun violence but it is part of the solution.
Packet Page 8 of 342
Charles Tuura, Edmonds, stated guns kill people; 32,000 people were killed by guns in 2011. The
Second Amendment refers to a well-regulated militia and he agreed guns need to be regulated well. The
Second Amendment was written at a time when guns were needed on the frontier. He relayed our society
loves guns; school shootings happen 2-3 times/year which never happened while he was in school 1969 -
1981. I-594 allows guns to be loaned or given away but will close the loophole that allows a felon or
someone charged with domestic violence to purchase a gun at a gun show. He encouraged the Mayor and
City Council to adopt the resolution supporting I-594, even though this is a voter driven issue.
Roger Hertrich, Edmonds, agreed with Mr. Tuura’s concerns but said I-594 will not solve that problem.
For example, people routinely ignore the law prohibiting the use of a cell phone while driving. People
who should not possess guns, criminals and people in bad mental states, do it illegally today. I-594 places
a limit on how families, hunters and gun owners must act with regard to their weapons. I-594 states no
person shall sell or transfer a firearm unless it is done through a licenses dealer. I-594 allows temporary
transfer between spouses or domestic partners if the temporary transfer occurs and the firearm is kept at
all times at an established shooting range. He summarized under I-594 a transfer, loaning a gun to
someone such as a friend or relative, is illegal unless it is done through a licensed dealer.
Hearing no further comment, Mayor Earling closed the opportunity for public comment.
Councilmember Peterson explained he previously introduced this resolution after being contacted by a
group of concerned Edmonds residents. Other cities in Washington have passed similar resolutions; the
Edmonds City Council has supported initiatives in the past. I-594 is common sense legislation, very
straight forward and does not create as many issues as have been implied. The Snohomish and King
County Prosecutors support I-594 and there has been strong endorsement from law enforcement because
this is a public safety issue.
COUNCILMEMBER PETERSON MOVED, SECONDED BY COUNCILMEMBER MESAROS,
TO SUPPORT I-594.
Council President Buckshnis thanked Councilmember Peterson for bringing this forward and Mr. Taraday
for the very explanatory packet. She agreed the initiative was very explanatory and addressed transfer
within family, etc. She summarized I-594 addresses a loophole that needs to be closed.
Councilmember Mesaros was pleased to support I-594, commenting there are a number of opportunities
for transfers that are not intended to happen. For example, currently an individual can put an ad in the
paper to sell a firearm, not knowing whether the intent or qualifications of the buyer would be in question
if a background check were conducted. I-594 is one way to stop the illegal sale of firearms.
Councilmember Bloom referred to language in the initiative that excludes transfer to someone while
hunting if the hunting is legal in all places where the person to whom the firearm is transferred possess
the firearm and the person to whom the firearm is transferred has completed all training and holds all
licenses or permits required for such hunting, provided that any temporary transfer allowed by this
subsection is permitted only if the person to whom the firearm is transferred is not prohibited from
possessing firearms under state or federal law. She commented that seems to be contrary to what some are
people saying; it seemed to say that it was okay to loan a firearm to someone for hunting as long as they
have the required licenses and are not prohibited from using a firearm. Mr. Taraday stated
Councilmember Bloom’s reference was to page 227 of the packet, paragraph 4f, a lengthy list of
exceptions. He was not an expert on I-594 but it clearly contains references to hunting, spouse or
domestic partners; he was unclear whether the exemption Councilmember Bloom cited applied only to
hunting with spouses or domestic partners. The first exemption applies to a transfer to immediate family
member which the subsection limits to spouses, domestic partners, parents, children, siblings,
Packet Page 9 of 342
grandparents, grandchildren, nieces, nephews, first cousins, etc. Any transfer to an immediate family
member is exempt from I-594.
Student Representative Eslami commented a year ago after the Sandy Hook shooting, there was a rumor
at Edmonds-Woodway High School about a student possibly bringing a gun to school. Since then,
students are not allowed to bring backpacks to assemblies. He summarized he likes to have his backpack
during an assembly to get work done and does not want to have to worry about guns while at school.
MOTION CARRIED (6-0-1), COUNCILMEMBER PETSO ABSTAINED.
11. PUBLIC HEARING ON THE PLANNING BOARD’S RECOMMENDATION TO APPROVE: 1)
AN AMENDMENT TO THE EDMONDS COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT CODE CREATING A
NEW WESTGATE MIXED USE ZONE AND RELATED DESIGN STANDARDS; AND 2) AN
AMENDMENT TO THE ZONING MAP CHANGING THE BN, BC AND BC-EW ZONES IN THE
WESTGATE COMMERCIAL AREA TO A NEW WESTGATE MIXED USE ZONE
DESIGNATION. THE WESTGATE COMMERCIAL AREA CONSISTS OF THE BN, BC AND
BC-EW ZONES NEAR THE INTERSECTION OF SR-104 (EDMONDS WAY) AND 100TH AVE W
Planning Manager Rob Chave explained the Planning Board’s proposal includes two distinct actions:
1. Establishment of new zone (Westgate Mixed Use)
2. Rezoning of commercial properties in the Westgate area to WMU
He displayed maps showing the boundaries of the Westgate study area and the existing zoning (BN-
Neighborhood Business, BC-Community Business and BC-EW-Community Business-Edmonds Way).
The current building height limits are 25 feet in BN, 30 feet in BC and 45 feet in BC-EW. He displayed a
drawing of the area covered by zoning map amendment and reviewed the proposal features:
• No expansion of the existing commercial area
• Additional intensity of development within the commercial area
• “Hybrid zone” mixture of traditional regulations (uses, setback) and form-based elements not
regulated in standard zones (requirements for amenities and open spaces, building types and
locations)
• Mix of building heights dependent on location and topography, 2 – 4 story maximum
• “Green Factor” landscape system
• Additional protection for surrounding slopes and trees/vegetation
• Supporting traffic analysis – no reduction in level of service (LOS) (Note that analysis was done
at higher level of development than currently proposed)
In response to the question Why Westgate, Mr. Chave explained the proposal is a response to a number of
issues and trends:
• Growth. Growth and development is a fact of life in the Puget Sound region, including Edmonds.
The choice made in Edmonds has been to focus growth in existing commercial/multifamily areas
rather than expand those areas or rezone adjacent areas.
• Demography. The population is aging and needs new housing opportunities (e.g. for different life
stages and housing needs/desires). Current housing choices in Edmonds can be improved by
offering more variety and styles. Different housing types also enable the younger generation to
locate in the community instead of moving out.
• Environment. Local communities have relatively constrained options for dealing with issues such
as transportation and climate change. Land use such as encouraging transit-oriented development
and increasing the mix of uses in compact, defined areas, can help transportation choices – the
environment. This was a key point made by Forterra – a partner in the project, who also provided
a letter of support. Encouraging low impact development techniques helps treat stormwater on
site.
Packet Page 10 of 342
He highlighted the Westgate Code discussion up to this point:
• Council public hearing on August 4, 2014
• Process has included 50+ meetings with 3 Planning Board public hearing and several City
Council meetings
• Initial phases included broad advertising and public open houses/design charrettes
• Extensive iterative review
o Many changes and adjustment have been made to the original UW ideas during the Planning
Board and Council review, and in response to public comments.
He reviewed key changes:
• The plan’s emphasis has been shifted for the adjoining streets/highway to the four quadrants that
make up the Westgate commercial area
• The overall proposal is a hybrid approach, combining traditional and form-based elements.
Provides for opportunities while not mandating that new development conform rigidly to certain
minimum building heights or requiring that all buildings be pushed up against the sidewalk lines.
Significant amounts of open space and amenity space are required, as well as pedestrian and non-
motorized circulation within each of the four quadrants of the Westgate commercial area.
• Instead of development of up to 5 stories, buildings are now caped in many places to 2 or 3
stories with an opportunity to obtain 4 stories where the nearby slopes are higher, or where no
residences are nearby
• Street setback have been increased from the original 8 feet to 12 feet to provide a wider street
interface and to assure that, if needed, turn pockets can be provided for traffic access. Council has
had some discussion about increasing this setback to 20 feet.
• The intersection of SR-104 and 100th Ave W has a significant step-back requirement and “entry”
emphasis radiating from the intersection, to assure that a sense of place is provided at this
intersection.
He reviewed several photographs of buildings and uses and spaces created behind buildings a similar area
in Hillsboro. With regard to building heights, he explained buildings vary in height depending on location
and a protected slope line keeps buildings off slopes, retaining vegetative buffer from adjoining
residences. He displayed a map identifying the height of the slopes as well as a map that was prepared to
identify the protected slope lines. He referred to the Walgreen’s building which was built into the slope
and required a high retaining wall; that could not occur under this proposal. The protected slope line is not
expected to impact development because it reflects the existing slopes. He displayed a map that identifies
parcels eligible for 2, 3 and 4 story heights. He clarified there is a point system to obtain four stories that
requires a combination of things such as increased green building features, additional amenity or open
space, larger retail area, etc. A stepback is required on the fourth story.
With regard to traffic and setbacks:
• A traffic study was completed for proposed changes at Westgate
• Traffic study shows no overall impact on level of service. Any future development will be
analyzed for detail traffic impacts (e.g. turning movements, access points) as actual development
occurs
• 12 foot setback preserves options; SR-104 study in late 2014/early 2015 will identify any
additional recommendations for improvements. Council is considering increasing the street
setback to 20 feet until the study is done (Bartells submitted letter expressing their concerns with
20 foot setback)
• Setback requirements can be revisited if needed
Packet Page 11 of 342
Mr. Chave relayed Bartell CEO’s indication that the 20-foot setback would have a significant impact on
redevelopment of their property. Bartell is in the process of acquiring all the property around their store.
They are interest in phasing redevelopment that would move their store to the intersection to make it more
visible.
Mr. Chave reviewed an aerial photograph of the existing QFC and PCC buildings on lot lines. The PCC
property line splits the large parking area. QFC’s parking is largely in front but nearby parking areas are
also used by people shopping at QFC.
The proposed code includes the following with regard to parking:
• Proposed overall blended parking rate for commercial space is 1/500 sf. Blended rate is for all
commercial uses, rather than each use having a different parking standard
• Residential parking is 1.2 for small units, 1.75 for units larger than 900 sf
• Current usage assumes a shared parking area, not just provided on-site (e.g. QFC property has 1
space per 475 sf; PCC property has 1 space per 486 sf.
• Comparisons with other cities show many employ blended parking rates; many at 1/500
(Mountlake Terrace, Bothell, Issaquah, Redmond, Kent), others at 1/400 (Bothell, Kent) or more.
Some have no commercial requirement (Everett, Renton). Rates also vary by location within
jurisdiction.
• These are minimum parking standards. Example: McDonald’s provided 42 spaces on site, only 23
were required by code
Mr. Chave provided drawings of Westgate and downtown to illustrate streetscape and scale:
• Westgate
o 80 feet of right-of-way on SR-104
o 10 feet set aside within the right-of-way for sidewalk, planting strip
o 12-foot setback
o Approximately 104 feet between buildings
• Downtown Edmonds
o 30 building heights
o 60 foot right-of-way
o Sidewalks, travel lanes and parking are within the right-of-way
To address the comment that the proposal will produce a canyon effect, he scaled the SR-104 right-of-
way to the size of downtown. Although the buildings are taller in Westgate, with the additional right-of-
way width and setback, the scale of buildings to the right-of-way and overall feeling of the streetscape
will not differ greatly from downtown.
With regard to amenity vs. open space:
• Clarified the intent to provide both amenity and open space within the area, with a 15%
independent requirement for each
• Amenity space must be public, while open space can be public or private. In either case, each has
its own requirement
• Note: No other zone in the City has anything like these requirements
He displayed an aerial photograph of the McDonalds site and provided details to illustrate amenity/open
space versus setbacks:
• 190 feet deep
• 400 feet wide
• Approx. 50 foot old front setback (actual - which includes 5-foot landscaping strip)
• Approx. 50 foot non-developed slope area
Packet Page 12 of 342
• 76,000 total lot area
• 11,400 - 15% amenity space required
• 11,400 - 15% open space
• 20,000 protected slope area 26.3% of total site
• 4,800 front 12-foot setback 6.3% of total site
• 8,000 front 20-foot setback 10.5% of total site
• Development scenarios Existing Code New Code
o Minimum landscape/open/amenity area 8,000 31,400
o Are available for building 62,000 44,600
o Total potential floor area 124,000 133,800
With regard to commercial requirements, the various building types were clarified to indicate commercial
requirements, especially regarding the commercial mixed use types:
Building Type Residential Office Uses Retail
1. Rowhouse Any floor Not allowed Not allowed
2. Courtyard Any floor Ground floor only Ground floor only
3. Stacked Dwellings Any floor Ground floor only Ground floor only
4. Live-Work Any floor Ground floor only Ground floor only
5. Loft Mixed Use Not ground floor Any floor Any floor
6. Side Court Mixed Use Not ground floor Any floor Ground floor only
7. Commercial Mixed Use Not ground floor Not ground floor Any floor
Commercial buildings can be located anywhere in the Westgate area. The area around the intersection is
reserved for commercial mixed use. Residential only buildings are on the periphery in areas that do not
front on SR-104 and are either adjacent to residential areas or protected slopes.
He displayed the original and a revised building type map, commented the building types have been
updated to provide for more choices. With regard to building design, he explained:
• A series of design standards have been added, addressing such things as massing and articulation,
orientation to the street, ground level details, pedestrian facades, blank walls and ground floor
ceiling heights.
• Note that any 4th story “must be stepped back 10 feet from a building façade facing SR-104 or
100th Avenue West” (page 27)
He displayed photographs of the features of typical commercial type buildings that have been integrated
into the Westgate plan. With regard to large format retail, he explained:
• Incentives have been added for large-format retail uses (e.g. groceries, drug stores) with the
potential for an extra 4th floor plus an extra 5 feet of height granted if a large store is part of the
building
• Intent is for large format retail to be retained; note existing leases/ownership and Bartell’s interest
in expanding their investment (QFC and Bartell own their properties; PCC and Walgreens have
long term leases)
• Bartells has expressed concern that a 20-foot setback may have a “significant impact on their
ability to redevelop”
Councilmember Petso referred to the aerial photograph of QFC parking lot and property line, recalling
from an earlier presentation that the parking area owned by QFC only provides 1 space per 475 square
feet but including the shared parking area to the north, their functional parking is 1 space per 350. Mr.
Chave recalled the parking ratios for QFC and PCC were 1 for 350 and 1 for 370. Councilmember Petso
observed the PCC parking area to the east is not on their property Mr. Chave agreed.
Packet Page 13 of 342
Councilmember Petso asked whether the residents who spoke at the Planning Board regarding a 4-story
building’s impact on their property were notified of the change to allow an additional 5 feet of height for
large format retail. Mr. Chave advised no specific notice had been done. The only place that would be a
factor would be the southeast quadrant. Councilmember Petso asked whether residents in that quadrant
expressed concerns at the Planning Board. Mr. Chave explained the photographs residents displayed of
views from their properties illustrated the dense vegetation. Although the buildings were a concern, their
primary concern was the trees and landscaping on the protected slope. A large retail presence is required
to obtain the additional 5 feet; that was unlikely to occur in the southeast quadrant because the properties
are shallow especially along SR-104. There likely would not be much impact if that area were exempted
from the additional 5 feet.
Councilmember Petso observed on properties with narrow frontage such as Ivar’s, the curb cut and
parking garage entrance would leave little room for street front commercial She asked whether a
minimum frontage was required before a curb cut/parking garage entrance was allowed. Mr. Chave
answered there was a 12-foot setback, amenity space, and open space; they would only be allowed what
would fit on the property. Councilmember Petso provided an example she saw on Greenwood Avenue
and 143rd in Seattle where the parking garage entrance was on 143rd; if that entrance had been on the
Greenwood Avenue side, there would have been little space for commercial. Mr. Chave answered one of
significant requirements in the code is that parking areas be connected. If one property is developing, they
will have to make connections to the adjoining properties. That potentially means there will be less curb
cuts, more internal circulation and avoids a line of garage entrances.
Mayor Earling opened the public participation portion of the public hearing.
Stephen Clifton, Edmonds, responded to comments he has read online and statements made during a
recent Town Hall meeting that this process is City staff and mayor driven which is factually incorrect.
Those types of comments personalize the issue and take away from the real issue, making a decision on
the merits of the proposal. The request to initiate neighborhood business center plans for the Westgate and
Five Corners commercial areas came from the Planning Board and the Economic Development
Commission (EDC) as seen on page 3 of the 2009 Annual Report presented to the City Council on
January 19, 2010. On March 16, 2010, the City Council approved Resolution 1224 that stated the City
Council shall act on the work of the EDC and its recommendations including but not limited to initiating
neighborhood business center plans for Five Corners, Perrinville and Westgate. On August 3, 2010
following a presentation on the recommendation by the EDC, City Council authorized staff to initiate
agreements with the UW to proceed on the study. The UW was intended to be a consultant to facilitate
process. The City Council subsequently approved funding for a market feasibility analysis. On June 21,
2011 following a presentation by UW representatives, the City Council approved forwarding the
Westgate plan to the Planning Board for further discussion. The role of City staff was to oversee the
contract with the UW and to help facilitate the process. This process has never been a mayor and staff
driven process; in fact Mayor Earling was not even in his position when this process began. Staff has
checked in with the Council to obtain authorization to continue moving forward and this process has been
discussed during City Council retreats.
Charles Tuura, Edmonds, commented no matter how much lipstick is put on it, this idea is pig. He
questioned the traffic study, recalling the backup last Friday caused by rerouting traffic on SR-104 to
work on a gas line. A project such as this would require lane closures to accommodate trucks. He also
questioned where the children in the planned 1600 units would play and go to school. His neighborhood
is transitioning with younger families moving in to raise their families and unwind from the rat race that
is being proposed. He feared adding businesses at Westgate would kill downtown businesses. He
questioned the transparency of this process; he first heard about it in August and few in his neighborhood
had heard about it. He suggested a vote of the people instead of a Council decision, allow residents to
decide whether they wanted to have an Edmonds kind of day or a Kirkland kind of nightmare. He
Packet Page 14 of 342
summarized growth was inevitable but needed to be managed. To the comment that this type of
development was successful in DC, he suggested it was successful for the developers, the owners and the
real estate lobby, not the residents. To grow economically the City needs to nurture existing businesses
and stop the personal war on marijuana businesses.
Councilmember Petso read comments from Trudy Abdo, Edmonds, who requested her comments be
read into the record. As a Westgate resident, she was concerned about the development plans. First, the
limited public notice to the area and the push to pass the plan with little public input raised her suspicions
of the plan. Second, with regarding traffic and parking; getting to QFC and Bartells is frustrating; this
plan proposes to decrease the required parking. She suggested one parking space for each bedroom,
noting residents would need cars because they cannot walk to work or take the bus. She questioned an
effort to make Westgate a walkable community when there was a highway through the middle. The traffic
study should take place in the afternoon, 4:30 p.m. on a Friday would be best, not a Tuesday morning at
10:00 a.m. She will shop elsewhere if traffic and parking becomes more difficult. Third, she feared
Edmonds Way would look like a canyon and/or wind tunnel if 4-story buildings are allowed to be built
close to the highway. Quality apartments set back would be much nicer. She suggested more
consideration, planning and public input were needed before the plan was approved.
Mayor Earling advised received written comments had been received from Bob Throndsen, a resident a
few blocks from Westgate, that listed 12 issues/questions/ concerns. Forterra also submitted a letter of
support for the proposal.
Tim Tuura, Edmonds, a Westgate resident, voiced his opposition to the proposed zoning change for the
Westgate area. Mixed use means 1-2 levels of underground parking, 1 level of storefront retail with 2-3
stories of retail above, a concept he is familiar with as the company he works for builds this in Seattle.
During construction it will be necessary to cone off one lane of SR-104 for truck to access the site. He has
watched the traffic level of service in the Westgate intersection diminish significantly over the past five
years due to hourly arrivals and departures of two ferries, often reaching near gridlock in the summer. He
summarized coning off lanes was asking for trouble.
Tom Crichide, Edmonds, was opposed to the proposed plan, commenting traffic in the area was already
difficult; QFC’s parking lot is jammed on the weekend. He agreed access for construction vehicles,
parking for the trades and providing space to work will create problems. As a driver for an electrical
distributor he encounters these issues in similar type developments. He suggested the traffic survey be
conducted over a year due to different traffic patterns in summer versus winter.
Matt Waldron, Edmonds, thanked the Council for their work. Due to its great access to transportation,
the Westgate corners are prime for development. They are slightly disjoined so a redo of the geography
and the architecture would be a good thing for all. The desired result would be an urban-like hub that
maximizes and monetizes as much space as possible. He favored a broad liberal discussion of how the
Westgate area can be opened to development so all the big ideas can be considered including
modernization, innovation and improving the space. Few great things have occurred from thinking small.
There are good and talented people on staff who have the training to help the City grow and develop
properly. He urged the Council to finish this process that has been going on for years, and then redirect
their focus on the waterfront and train problem. He suggested watching the video on My Edmonds New
TV.
Maggie Fima, Edmonds, previously on the Shoreline and King County Councils, recalled in 1994 when
GMA was being implemented, people would often say they did not want any more development. When
asked why did they did not support development in the city when they supported GMA that directed
infrastructure and development to the existing urban area to protect rural areas, the number one comment
was often they did not want any more traffic. She summarized citizens were saying they did not want
Packet Page 15 of 342
more growth because the existing growth was not being addressed. She spoke in favor of the Westgate
plan, maybe not exactly as proposed, but directing growth to the existing urban areas. She appreciated the
work done by the Council, Planning Board, staff and other members of the public; it is consistent with
GMA, regional policies and the City’s Comprehensive Plan. Land use and transportation must be done
together to avoid terrible sprawl, traffic and environmental degradation. Single use, single story
development at prime intersections should be a thing of the past; it does not work. She was hopeful this
plan or a close version will pass and as the City moves toward implementation, she encouraged the
Council and staff to incentivize design that supports all age groups and family types especially children
and teens, increased safety for pedestrians as well as identified and proven ways to decrease crime
through design, and enhanced transit service with frequent all day and late hour bus service. She urged the
Council to work to pass this legislation so that the GMA can be implemented.
Neil Tibbott, Edmonds, a Planning Board Member, spoke in favor of the Westgate plan which has been
vetted over nearly five years. The plan promotes accessibility and is sensible. During the vetting process,
the Planning Board and staff listened carefully. For example, after residents expressed concern with the
slopes below their houses, staff analyzed the slopes and topography and returned with suggestions. A
lengthy discussion with the Planning Board followed that resulted in the current proposal. This plan
promotes accessibility via the availability of public transportation and proximity to parks including the
proposed playfields. This plan is sensible; it does not require immediate action by any landowner or
developer and likely will evolve over a 20 year period. It is safe to assume little would occur in 3-7 years
as property is acquired, plans developed and proposals presented to the City. Implementing this plan does
not mean that this kind of mixed use development will be right for any other part of the City; this is not a
one size fits all development. A great deal of work has been done to articulate a plan for this area. He
urged the Council to support the Westgate plan and provide new opportunities for housing, employment
and access to transportation.
Roger Hertrich, Edmonds, agreed the Planning Board had done a lot of good work. He referred to
concerns he expressed at previous meetings about traffic and congestion and the impact of increased
density. Residents in the surrounding area want to maintain the two grocery stores. He suggested
consideration be given to the reality of what currently exists and whether it was practical to be as
enthusiastic about the change as Mr. Tibbott or better to look at what could be done to accomplish the
neighborhood’s wishes.
Careen Nordling-Rubenkonig, Edmonds, thanked Mr. Waldron for his comments and agreed with
fellow Planning Board Member Tibbott’s comments. She has shopped at Westgate while living in 5
different neighbors during the 28 years she has lived in Edmonds. She described shopping at Westgate as
a single person, as a family with young children and now as empty nesters. She has patronized multiple
businesses in the four quadrants. Edmonds, like her, is at a different place in life. She would like Westgate
to be healthy and to thrive in this day and age, to meet residents’ needs from cradle to grave, to guide
growth and increase in value via this plan. She has great memories of shopping at Westgate and looked
forward to new experiences and a new approach.
Bob Rinehart, Edmonds, commented there is a lot of noise and fog in an issue like this and there is
always an imbalance in the levels of knowledge and understanding. The key balance is the knowledge the
City Council has. Public input is essential, critical and invaluable but it has its place. He lives near
Westgate and frequently visits seven of the stores. He cautioned not to operate from a fear factor, relaying
he found this an exciting opportunity. Although some communities have gone the wrong way due to
growth, the core of an equal number of cities has been preserved. He did not view the plan as a leap/lurch
into rampant urbanization or unfettered sprawl; it is a step in the right direction to address population and
demographic changes and sources of revenue need to be identified to address the continued increase in the
cost of city services. Councilmembers are elected/selected by a majority; he trusted the Council to make a
good decision.
Packet Page 16 of 342
John Dewhirst, Edmonds, a resident of the Westgate area, agreed with much of what’s been said. This
an opportunity that will open the door to future development. Redevelopment has to start somewhere and
he viewed this as a good start. He envisioned this would help preserve downtown from development
pressure, much of which did not belong downtown. Areas like Westgate and Five Corners can syphon off
that pressure by accommodating neighborhood commercial uses and preserve the specialty, tourist,
restaurant, art gallery environment downtown. Areas outside the bowl deserve same the treatment that has
been given to downtown; there need to be more walkability and more target areas to walk to. Most of the
traffic on SR-104 is not Edmonds traffic but regional traffic; holding up development based on regional
traffic is the wrong approach. He urged the Council to approve the plan.
Rod Shipley, Edmonds, said he currently travels through Westgate ten times a day. He did not share the
same views as many others regarding traffic concerns. As a young family, he would like to see higher
quality places and more walkable spaces, not 1960s development with parking lots on the street front. He
has been part of the process for long time; the most frequent request in the surveys and public engagement
process has been walkability and more public spaces. This plan is a way to get there. He encouraged the
Council to support the plan.
Bruce Witenberg, Edmonds, Chair of the EDC, but speaking as citizen, explained the EDC originally
proposed initiating a neighborhood business/residential plan for Westgate in January 2010 and has been
involved in each step of the process. More than 60 public meetings have been held during last 4½ years
where Westgate has been discussed, including 8 City Council meetings since July 22, 2014. The Westgate
process has been well documented on the City’s website. The record demonstrates there has been
considerable community input regarding Westgate. The Council supported the Westgate redevelopment
concept at its inception and in 2010 appropriated money for the UW Green Futures Lab to create a public
process for the redevelopment of Westgate. Living near Westgate, his family has patronized Westgate
businesses 2-3 times/week for the past 25 years. They have not had the same negative, fearful experiences
of those who oppose redevelopment; they are not afraid to cross SR-104 or 100th or to walk on the
sidewalks. Edmonds citizens living outside the bowl deserve amenities similar to those in the bowl,
including a lifestyle center and a walkable community with easy access to restaurants, services, housing,
transportation and open and amenity spaces. Westgate is the gateway to the downtown and waterfront;
how the gateway portrays Edmonds needs to be improved and unplanned and haphazard development can
no longer be tolerated. The proposed plan for redevelopment of Westgate is sound, and takes into
consideration protection of the environment, creation of amenity and open space, green building
standards, enhanced neighborhood walkability and improves one of the community’s important
neighborhoods. He encouraged the Council to enact the proposed mixed use and zoning map changes to
accommodate Westgate redevelopment.
Tracy Bower, Edmonds, a resident who lives a few blocks from PCC, said she only learned about this
process two days ago. She was uncertain where it had been advertised, she learned about from Edmonds
moms on Facebook. She was unsure how she felt about the proposal but Westgate has been working fine
as is and the businesses are not having problems. QFC and PCC are always crowded and she often has to
circle the lot for parking. She was unsure how apartments and more housing would affect that area. She
questioned where the children will go to school; there are already 30 children in classroom and schools
have been closed due to finding. A lot of things are being swept under the rug so builders and planners
can benefit financially. Redevelopment is not really needed; the storefronts and new buildings may look
prettier but they unnecessary and will make the area more crowded. She remarked on changes in
downtown Edmonds; going to the beach this past Sunday required parking blocks away. She summarized
there were too many people coming into Edmonds, it is not a fun, quaint town anymore and is turning into
a big city.
Packet Page 17 of 342
Ron Wambolt, Edmonds, referred to the previous speaker’s comment that QFC is always busy,
explaining QFC has been endeavoring for years to get additional space to accommodate more business.
He agreed QFC does have inadequate parking at times but he always manages to find a parking place
when visiting QFC and Bartell twice a week. QFC could build underground parking but needs residential
above to make that feasible. He has attended the School Superintendent monthly luncheon for the past
eight years, not because his children or grandchildren are in school but because most of his property taxes
go to the school district. To the comment about schools closing due to funding, school were closed due to
insufficient enrollment in those areas, not due to funding. He emphasized the Westgate plan will not
happen overnight and is likely a 20 year plan. The Bartell representative indicated their plans are several
years off. He reiterated Councilmembers are elected to listen to the public; however, he estimated the
comment at public hearings represents only .1% of population. He urged the Council to make a decision
soon to approve the plan.
Councilmember Petso read an email from Phil Lovell, Edmonds, Planning Board Member, expressing
his support for the Planning Board’s study, report and recommendation and requesting that the Council
approve the proposed Comprehensive Plan and accompanying zoning revision to the Westgate area. No
member of the Council or public should be questioning the degree or depth of information, background
and public input on Westgate; doing so demonstrates either complete disrespect for the process or
complete ignorance of what is going on in the City. The subject of potential neighborhood zoning
revisions including the Westgate area have been in discussion and development for the past five years.
Council Resolution 1224 mandated this process. Both the Planning Board and EDC have been united in
the study and publication of data comprising the current plan. Results of this work have been thoroughly
summarized in the EDC’s 16-page white paper of July 16, 2014 which details the chronological history of
governmental and public process on this matter. Ad hoc Town Hall meetings on Westgate are not needed
to gather more input from the public and the Council has abundant material on which to base sound
findings and action. He urged the Council to approve the Planning Board’s recommendation regarding the
Westgate area.
Mayor Earling closed the public participation of the public hearing.
Council President Buckshnis expressed her appreciation for the work done by staff done answering
questions. This item will return to the Council for action on November 3.
Mayor Earling declared a brief recess.
12. MAYOR EARLING PRESENTS TO THE EDMONDS CITY COUNCIL AND CITIZENS HIS 2015
RECOMMENDED CITY BUDGET
Mayor Earling presented the following:
Members of the City Council, staff and citizens of Edmonds:
I am pleased to present to you the 2015 Edmonds City Budget. Every budget year provides a new
adventure. 2015 is no exception. As you will recall in my first budget for 2013, with the then current
trying economic conditions, we had to make dramatic budget reductions amounting to $1.5M from the
General Fund.
In turn, with an improving economy and careful budget management during 2013, we stabilized a bit and
were able to make improvements for this year including; reviving a street repaving program, purchasing
some one time equipment upgrades and adding a few new staff positions.
Packet Page 18 of 342
The very good news for the region and nation this past year is the economy continues to improve. The
same is true in Edmonds. Our sales tax receipts continue to grow, property values continue to stabilize
and improve which creates additional revenue and, for Edmonds, we have strong increases in home
construction as well as several commercial projects. The economic outlook is quite good.
As I said in my opening comments, every budget year is a new adventure, and this year is no exception.
As we let you know a few weeks ago, Fire District One advised us our rates would be going up because of
their negotiated union agreement. We expected an increase and there were rumors of a number, but
nothing definitive until we received an invoice on August 21 for two-years of retroactive collection (which
is allowed in the contract) totaling $1.67M. In addition to the $1.67M, we will have cost increases for
2015 which will not be determined until 2015 union negotiations are completed. We have, however,
added a placeholder of $978,000 for that cost in the budget.
These changes dramatically alter our current year projections and, depending on the 2015 increase, will
also have long- term financial implications for our community. This is our new yearly adventure! We
have been meeting with FD 1 to better understand the increases and identify what other options are
available to us. We are working to reduce the $1.67M and I am hopeful we will be successful.
While our current FD 1 projections have altered our financial projections there is still much good news
to share. As mentioned earlier, with the continued strong regional economy we will be able to absorb
increased costs in health care, staff wage increases, Fire District costs and still make substantial
increases from the dismal reductions forced by the "Great Recession" at the end of the last decade and
the beginning of the current decade.
Our projected 2014 revenues are 3.6% higher than the 2013 actual revenues. And 2015 projected
revenues are 2.1% higher than 2014 revenues. The Snohomish County Assessor indicates expected home
values will increase 10.8% in 2015. As mentioned earlier, sales tax revenue continues to grow, led by
automotive sales and construction. Finally, our 2015 utilities revenue are projected to be 2.1% higher
than 2014.
With the increased obligation from FD 1, the one major and frustrating decision I have made is choosing
not to add any newly-created staffing positions for 2015. There are a few positions we added during
development of the 2014 Budget and I am recommending we continue these positions into 2015 and one
position I am expanding from a ½ time position to a ¾ time position. I am not comfortable in adding new
positions with the long-term financial implications that entails.
While I acknowledge we do have some new staffing needs, especially in public safety, being cautious for a
year is the prudent decision. The focus for 2015 will once again be on one-time improvements.
So what progress can we expect? There are several important pieces of Public Works infrastructure as
well as improvements in the way in which we can provide more and better information access for the
public and staff. In addition, there will active work on many of our capital facility projects.
As you know, this year for the first time in five years, we began repaving our streets with a budget of
$1.2M. This next year I have increased that budget to $1.56M. We need to be as aggressive as possible
with the repaving because streets not repaved will continue to deteriorate. We need to catch up. At some
point, the community will need to grapple with how, in the long term, we maintain our ongoing
resurfacing needs.
One of the other ongoing issues for the community is how to quiet the train horn blasts from each train as
they approach our at-grade crossings at Main and Dayton. For 2015, I have included $50,000 for the
engineering and design of a Track Side Warning System. Such a system increases crossing safeguards
Packet Page 19 of 342
and has only a localized horn signal. Ultimately construction and completion will cost several hundred
thousand dollars.
Our Public Works Capital Projects will continue. Our staff continues to be successful in gaining needed
grant dollars. While water line, sewer line, lift stations and traffic safety modifications are not very
glamorous, the ongoing replacements and upgrades are necessary to maintain infrastructure and the
quality of life we expect. Also in the works for 2015 are significant improvements such as the major
project at Highway 99 and 228th SW, important improvements for traffic flow in the intersection of 212th
and 76th, and two crucial Safe Routes to School sidewalk projects.
We will continue to improve public access to information by upgrading public information software
which will make it easier for the public to follow Council meeting agendas and retrieve related data. In
addition Development Services will digitize planning maps, plans and documents for easier access to
historical files and to reduce the number of public records requests. We will also continue updating our
City Code.
The budget also includes monies to complete important work of the two consultants hired under the
Community Development/Economic Development Department for the Strategic Action Plan and
Communications.
Next year our Parks Department will see several major projects move forward. Besides our continued
success in obtaining grants, Edmonds has gained statewide recognition for the quality of our parks.
Among the projects scheduled next year are; the completion of the City Park Spray Pad, which will be
part of the major upgrade in the children’s play area; a complete overhaul and repair of the Fishing
Pier; and opening the new Woodway Athletic Complex in coordination with the Edmonds School District.
Council will recall I set aside $400K last year for projects they may be interested in which were not
included in the budget. With the cautious approach to next year’s budget, I am including $250K for such
projects.
One cautionary note I must put before you is the anticipated, but unknown, yearly increase still to come
from Fire District 1. Our Finance Director has expressed concern that the ongoing increase of, for
instance, the $978,000 which we have a placeholder for in next year will have long-term consequences
which could begin to drain the reserves we have so carefully built and desire to maintain.
To counter-balance that drain we must very thoughtfully seek new revenues and look for cost efficiencies.
Yes, of course the economy has improved. Yes, automobile sales are strong. Yes, we have made dramatic
improvements in our sales tax income. Yes, real estate excise tax has been very good. And yes, residential
and commercial construction has been vigorous. But we must remember, as the economy shifts, this
revenue will also shift.
In 2015, with the stronger economy, we can look forward to: important one-time expenditures to improve
our city's infrastructure; upgrade our technology; create more effective channels to handle
communications with the community; continue to maintain and improve parks and open spaces; and the
preservation of the quality of life our citizens expect and deserve.
In conclusion, I look forward to working with the Council and staff to bring the 2015 Budget to
conclusion. I would be remiss if I did not mention the fine work our new Finance Director, his staff and
our Director's had in formulating the budget put before you this evening. There has been compromise,
hard work, and innovation on all of their parts.
Packet Page 20 of 342
Mayor Earling advised his message and the budget will be available on the City’s website tomorrow;
copies of the budget will be distributed to Council tonight. He looked forward to further discussions
regarding the budget.
13. DISCUSSION AND POTENTIAL ACTION ON AN ORDINANCE AMENDING THE 2014
BUDGET
Finance Director Scott James reviewed the third quarter budget amendment:
• Six decision packages
• Four decision packages have been previously discussed by Council
• Two decision packages are new for Council consideration
• $59,315 in new revenues to pay toward $105,942 in new expenditures
• Ending fund balance decreases by $46,627
He displayed Exhibit D, Specific Accounts Amended for Decision Packages on pages 9 and 10. He
reviewed Exhibit E, Balance Amendment Summary:
Fund Number Revenue Expense Change in Ending
Fund Balance
001 6,850 (6,850)
129 9,653 (9,653)
423 59,315 89,439 (30,124)
Total Change 59,315 105,942 (46,627)
He reviewed the budget amendments:
• New Items
o Police Officers contract settled
o Temporary Finance employee to provide coverage during Accounting Supervisor’s maternity

COUNCIL PRESIDENT BUCKSHNIS MOVED, SECONDED BY PETERSON, TO APPROVE
ORDINANCE NO. 3979, AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF EDMONDS, WASHINGTON,
AMENDING ORDINANCE NO. 3973 AS A RESULT OF UNANTICIPATED TRANSFERS AND
EXPENDITURES OF VARIOUS FUNDS. MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY.
14. DISCUSSION AND POTENTIAL ACTION ON DEVELOPMENT CODE AMENDMENT FOR CG
ZONES IN HIGHWAY 99 AREA
COUNCILMEMBER FRALEY-MONILLAS MOVED, SECONDED BY COUNCILMEMBER
MESAROS, TO EXTEND FOR 20 MINUTES. MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY.
Planning Manager Rob Chave advised this ordinance was drafted following Council action. City Attorney
Jeff Taraday distributed a revised version of the ordinance that adds a sunset provision in Section 2 that
Packet Page 21 of 342
reads, “This ordinance shall be in effect for one year from the effective date described herein. On the one
year anniversary of the effective date it shall cease to have effect.”
COUNCILMEMBER JOHNSON MOVED, SECONDED BY COUNCIL PRESIDENT
BUCKSHNIS, TO APPROVE ORDINANCE NO. 3980, AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF
EDMONDS, WASHINGTON, AMENDING EDMONDS COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT CODE
CHAPTER 16.60 TO AMEND USE REQUIREMENTS TO REMOVE SECOND STORY
COMMERCIAL REQUIREMENTS WITHIN CG DEVELOPMENTS.
Councilmember Fraley-Monillas advised she was absent when this issue was discussed and was unable to
participate. She has been working on issues related to Highway 99 for the past three years and has several
amendments to propose that will address commercial and parking requirements in the code language. If
the amendments are approved, she will propose corresponding changes to the ordinance title and whereas
sections.
COUNCILMEMBER FRALEY-MONILLAS MOVED, SECONDED BY COUNCIL PRESIDENT
BUCKSHNIS, TO AMEND 16.60.020 OF ATTACHMENT A BY DELETING SUBSECTION B,
MIXED USE DEVELOPMENT IN ITS ENTIRETY AND ADDING A NEW SECTION B, TO
READ, “REPORTING. THE DEVELOPMENT SERVICES DIRECTOR SHALL PROVIDE A
REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL BY FEBRUARY 1, 2016 TO SUMMARIZE THE 2015
DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITIES FOR THE CG AND CG2 DISTRICTS IN THE HIGHWAY 99
AREA, ESPECIALLY RELATED TO THE LAND USES AND VEHICLE PARKING. THE
REPORT IS INTENDED TO PROVIDE INFORMATION ABOUT HOW LAND USE AND
PARKING ASPECTS OF THIS CHAPTER ARE WORKING.”
Councilmember Fraley-Monillas explained she did not feel a sunset date was sufficient and recommended
a more in-depth review. Further, if the sunset date was not monitored, the code would revert back to the
old zoning code. She was uncertain why a sunset date was being imposed when most zoning changes did
not have a sunset date.
Councilmember Petso suggested tabling this matter and allowing Councilmember Fraley-Monillas to
provide her proposed amendments in writing.
COUNCILMEMBER PETSO MOVED, SECONDED BY COUNCILMEMBER BLOOM, TO
TABLE THIS ITEM. MOTION CARRIED (5-2), COUNCIL PRESIDENT BUCKSHNIS AND
COUNCILMEMBER PETERSON VOTING NO.
Councilmember Fraley-Monillas said she will distribute her proposed amendments to the Council.
15. CONTRACT DISCUSSION (AND/OR RENEWAL) WITH LIGHTHOUSE LAW GROUP PLLC
(LIGHTHOUSE)
Council President Buckshnis recalled when this issue was discussed in June, the Council decided to draft
procedures and a process to evaluate the City Attorney services. The evaluation was created, a process
was agreed upon and the evaluation was provided to Councilmembers, the Mayor and Directors. Written
evaluations were received from Councilmembers and the numeric evaluations very favorable. The
administration did not follow the process and a verbal evaluation was conducted with Mayor Earling, Mr.
Taraday, past Council President Councilmember Petso and herself. Since the process not followed
correctly, it will have to be reevaluated. The evaluation is a separate issue to be addressed next year. The
evaluations were very favorable; concerns expressed by the Mayor and Directors were addressed.
COUNCIL PRESIDENT BUCKSHNIS MOVED, SECONDED BY COUNCILMEMBER FRALEY-
MONILLAS, TO RENEW THE CONTRACT WITH LIGHTHOUSE.
Packet Page 22 of 342
Councilmember Peterson suggested Lighthouse provide a hierarchy of how Lighthouse prioritizes their
time related to Council, Mayor and Staff requests. For the public’s knowledge, he explained the City
Attorney is hired by the City Council, not the Mayor. Council President Buckshnis advised a study
session is scheduled to discuss whether one Councilmember can make a request of the City Attorney, etc.
Councilmember Fraley-Monillas commented although this discussion is good but it has nothing to do
with renewal of the Lighthouse contract.
MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY.
16. REPORT ON OUTSIDE BOARD AND COMMITTEE MEETINGS
Due to the late hour, this item was postponed to future agenda.
17. MAYOR'S COMMENTS
Mayor Earling remarked it had been a joy to work on the budget and the directors were glad it was over.
18. COUNCIL COMMENTS
Student Representative Eslami said he was glad he an opportunity to comment tonight and looked
forward to providing more comments in the future.
Councilmember Peterson thanked Mayor Earling for holding the Train Town Hall last Thursday; there
was a lively conversation among the at least 150 people who attended. He looked forward to the follow-
up meeting regarding specific transportation issues.
Councilmember Bloom reported on the exceptional transportation meeting she attended presented by 8-80
Cities’ Director, Gil Penalosa. The meeting’s focus was on people not cars. She relayed two important
takeaways:
1. The name of the company is 8-80 Cities because he wants people to consider transportation and
walkability in terms of an 8 year old and an 80 year old they care about.
2. There should be a physical barrier or grade level change between cars, sidewalks and bike lanes; in
other words, sharrows don’t work. She suggested considering that when reviewing the Sunset Avenue
Walkway Plan.
Councilmember Mesaros reported Sean Ardussi will make a presentation to the Council on October 21
entitled, Economic Evaluation of the Regional Impacts for the Proposed Gateway Pacific Terminal at
Cherry Point. He advised he will be on vacation the next two weeks.
Council President Buckshnis thanked Mayor Earling and staff for the budget. A study session is
scheduled on the budget as well as two public hearing. She suggested adding a COLA increase for Mayor
Earling as a decision packet and invited Councilmembers to talk to her about it. The Council should
consider the increase even if the City does not have a salary commission in place.
Council President Buckshnis reminded of the scarecrow contest; her scarecrow is a NHL player.
19. ADJOURN
With no further business, the Council meeting was adjourned at 10:16 p.m.

Proclamation for Domestic Violence Awareness Month ~ YWCA Week without Violence.
Recommendation
Previous Council Action
Narrative
Since the passage of the Violence Against Women Act (VAWA) nearly 20 years ago, our Nation's
response to domestic violence has greatly improved. What was too often seen as a private matter best
hidden behind closed doors is now an established issue of national concern. We have changed our laws,
transformed our culture and improved support services for survivors. We have seen a significant drop in
domestic violence homicides and improved training for police, prosecutors and advocates. Yet we must do
more to provide protection and justice for survivors and to prevent violence from occurring. During
National Domestic Violence Awareness Month we stand with domestic abuse survivors, celebrate our
Nation's progress in combating these despicable crimes and resolve to carry on until domestic violence is
no more.
The YWCA Week without Violence is a signature initiative created by YWCA USA nearly 20 years ago
to mobilize people in communities across the United States to take action against all forms of violence,
wherever it occurs. This year YWCA Week without Violence is October 13-17.
Mary Anne Dillon, YWCA Snohomish County Director, will be accepting the proclamation on behalf of
the YWCA.

Cigna Life, Long Term Disability (LTD) and Accidental Death & Dismemberment (AD & D) insurance
plan(s).
Recommendation
The recommendation is for the City Council to approve this on consent 10/21/14, and it become effective
11/1/14.
Previous Council Action
N/A
Narrative
The City currently offers life, long term disability (LTD), and an accidental death and dismemberment
policy (AD & D) insurance plans through the Standard as part of the benefits package and part of the
required social security replacement program (MEBT) plan benefits.
HR has been in the process of continuing to review and identify areas (such as compliance) to minimize
risk exposure and potentially create opportunities through better program design(s) that may also achieve
potential cost savings for the City. As part of this due diligence, HR request that Alliant, our life, LTD
and AD & D insurance broker sent out a request for proposal to the market to determine if there were any
available alternative plan options. During this process, it was also discovered that the current insurance
plan language was outdated in some areas and needed to be updated for compliance with state insurance
changes.
As a result of this process, Cigna insurance was able to provide some additional benefits options at a
lower rate than that our current plan does not include such as:
1. A partial disability benefit
2. Limitations on pre-existing conditions (3 months)
3. Paralysis benefits, speech and hearing disability benefits
4. Portability of the plan for employees
5. No suicide exclusions (state mandated benefit)
6. $25,000 increase to the total life insurance benefit under the MEBT life insurance plan.
The cost savings to the City for switching to the plan is projected to be approximately $15,719.12 per
Packet Page 103 of 342
year.
Keith Robertson, our Life insurance broker will be at the meeting to make a presentation.

9. DISCUSSION REGARDING CITY COUNCIL MEETING FORMAT
Development Services Director Hope explained at a Council retreat in May there was discussion about
ways to make Council meetings more efficient and effective and allowing more dialogue between
Councilmembers prior to voting on an item. One idea that was briefly discussed was the possibility of two
study sessions per month alternating with two business meetings per month. At business meetings, the
Council would take official action. Study sessions would be an opportunity for Councilmembers to have
dialogue, ask questions, etc.; votes would not be taken at study sessions. Under the proposal both
business meetings and study sessions would be recorded and televised. Typically at a study session the
Council would be seated around a table instead of seated at the dais. Many other cities in this area have a
similar format; it works well to get things done and provides an opportunity for conversation.
Ms. Hope explained by including all Councilmembers in the conversation, separate community meetings
would not be needed as all information can be presented to the Council in a transparent, public process.
An exception could be made for the Finance Committee to address routine business as the Council may
choose. She summarized alternating study sessions and business meetings would be a more efficient way
for the Council to have dialogue. Although the exact details do not have to be included in the code, if the
Council chooses this format, some minor amendments to the code will be necessary. If the Council is
interested in this format, she suggested providing direction to the City Attorney to craft an ordinance for
consideration at a future meeting.
Councilmember Mesaros observed under this proposal, the Finance Committee would meet before one of
the study sessions. He felt the committee meetings were quite efficient and typically lasted only an hour.
He suggested holding the other two committee meetings at the same time as the Finance Committee
meeting. For example, start at the committee meetings at 6:30 p.m. and begin the study session at 7:30
p.m. That would allow the committees to discuss some items that would be scheduled on the consent
agenda. Ms. Hope agreed that was an option. One of the rationales behind not having committee meetings
was it was difficult to be fully functional for another, longer meeting after a committee meeting.
Secondly, committee meetings are often discussion on items that still need to be discussed by the full
Council, resulting in repetition.
Councilmember Mesaros commented that was an agenda management issues; items that require
discussion by the full Council would not go to committee. The committees could review items that were
typically scheduled on the consent agenda. If an item needed to be reviewed by the full Council, it could
be discussed at a study session. He acknowledged sometimes the full Council will discuss an item that
could have been on the Consent Agenda. Councilmembers can always request an item be moved from the
Consent Agenda to the full agenda.
Council President Buckshnis expressed support for the proposed format. She noted there are items that
some Councilmembers want discussed by the full Council. To ensure transparency, she preferred to have
the Council’s discussions televised. A determination can be made by the Council President, Council
President Pro Tem and the Mayor regarding items to be placed on the Consent Agenda. She suggested
trying this format; if it doesn’t work, the format can be changed back. She referred to last week’s agenda
as an example of how many items ended up on the agenda, several that Councilmembers did not want
moved to the Consent Agenda. She summarized eliminating committee meetings will minimize
repetition.
Councilmember Fraley-Monillas said she liked this idea because the Council was able to have a full
discussion. Sometimes when things are discussed by a committee, by the time it comes to Council, the
other Councilmembers may not know the reason the committee supported or did not support an item.
Having two study sessions and two work sessions and eliminating two committees will make the
Packet Page 107 of 342
Council’s job easier. She did not find the Public Safety & Personnel (PSP) or the Planning & Public
Works (PPP) Committees very effective as often staff gives a full report to the committee and then give it
again to the full Council. She was uncertain how items would be scheduled on the Consent Agenda as
there are different opinions regarding what should be on the Consent Agenda and what should be
presented to the full Council. Ms. Hope said the Q&A in the Council packet includes criteria for items
that would be on the Consent Agenda although she understood that could differ between
Councilmembers.
Councilmember Petso agreed with Councilmember Mesaros, stating she found the committee structure
incredibly efficient. If two committee members listen to a presentation such as regarding a lift station and
determine it can be on the Consent Agenda, that saves the Council time and does not damage
transparency. Councilmembers also have 10-12 days’ notice before an item appears on the Consent
Agenda and can pull it for further questions if necessary. She was also very concerned with splitting the
committees; if the motivation was to include all Councilmember to improve transparency, clearly the one
committee that should no long exist is Finance. It is important Finance Committee items be done in the
open and in the public and not by a small group of Councilmembers behind closed doors and placing
items on the Consent Agenda. She recalled an example of that in the past with the contingent loan
agreement with the Public Facilities District, a $4 million guarantee by the City, that was placed on the
Consent Agenda and did not want to risk that again. If the Finance Committee morphs into a Long Range
Financial Task Force she felt that needed to be done in the public. Long Range Financial Task Forces
inevitably conclude a levy will be needed in the future and a levy requires the participation and
endorsement of all seven Councilmembers. She preferred to retain the current committees or eliminate all
of them. Her preference was study sessions and the current committees; the committees could regulate
what needs a study session.
Councilmember Johnson was an advocate of this proposal, advising she has seen work effectively in other
jurisdictions. One of the big advantages is the format; having the Council seated at the table allows
conversation amongst Councilmembers and staff presenting information and it will be easier to see the
screen. This is an effective way to do business; change is difficult and there is a tendency to do things the
way they have always been done. She supported having study sessions, acknowledging there will be a
transition period to sort things out but in the end it was worth trying.
Councilmember Peterson commented one of the most dangerous phrases in the English language is we’ve
always done things that way. He supported the proposal, finding it an excellent idea. The proposed
criteria will determine what is scheduled on the Consent Agenda. In his early years on the Council, many
items were on the Consent Agenda that had not been reviewed by committee. That changed after some
surprise items on the Consent Agenda; the proposal will address that without the unnecessary minutia in
committee meetings. The Council can add additional guidelines and Councilmembers have the ability to
pull items from the Consent Agenda. The proposed format allows Councilmembers to ask questions of
staff, adds transparency and assists staff, the public and councilmembers. It will provide greater
opportunity for the public to see more of what is going on and gives Councilmember a better
understanding of the details.
Councilmember Bloom said she emailed Councilmembers a proposed hybrid approach but was unable to
find it now. She suggested Senior Executive Council Assistant Jana Spellman find the email with her
suggested approach. Councilmember Bloom explained she averaged the number of committee items and
found an average of 17.2 total items per month. The PSP Committee has a lot fewer agenda items,
Finance and PPP Committees have the highest number of agenda items. Her analysis also considered
public comments at committee meetings. She found that public comment at committees was more
intimate and allowed conversation.
Packet Page 108 of 342
Councilmember Bloom suggested holding committee meetings before meetings and two work sessions to
discuss all the items the Council typically considers and are most likely not to be scheduled on Consent
Agenda. She also suggested holding committee meetings following one Council meeting per month to
discuss items that seem to be Consent Agenda items. This approach would cover all the bases. She was
concerned with eliminating the PPP Committee as reviewing the volume of agenda items would be an
enormous burden on the full Council. She preferred to have the PPP Committee screen those items.
Councilmember Bloom was also concerned the proposal to continue the Finance Committee, comprised
of the Council President and two other Councilmembers, places an additional responsibility on the
Council President. An option would be to eliminate the PSP Committee since most of the items are on
Consent and those that are not, require discussion by the full Council such as the ethics policy and code of
conduct. If the PSP Committee were eliminated, Councilmembers with the exception of the Council
President, could be divided among the two remaining committees. She requested the Council consider
this hybrid approach and for the information in her email to be provided the next time the Council
discusses this topic.
Councilmember Fraley-Monillas did not support having committee meetings following Council meetings.
Often the Council meets as early as 6 p.m. for an executive session; having a committee meeting
following a Council meeting would be very difficult. She suggested dissolving the PSP and PPP
Committees and holding the Finance Committee meeting prior to a Council meeting and filming it.
Councilmember Mesaros clarified his proposal was also a hybrid; the committees would be retained and
meet at the same time as the Finance Committee. To avoid repetition, the committees can consider items
that will be scheduled on the Consent Agenda, items the full Council should discuss will not be reviewed
by a committee.
Councilmember Petso endorsed Councilmember Mesaros’ approach which would retain the committees.
Another option is to shift park-related items to the PSP Committee to better distribute agenda items,
noting Ms. Hite already attends the PSP meetings to present items related to personnel.
Council President Buckshnis assured it was not her intent to have Finance Committee meetings that were
secret or behind closed doors. She agreed with Councilmember Fraley-Monillas’ suggestion to have
Finance Committee meetings filmed. She suggested retaining the Finance Committee because of the four
cities listed, three kept their Finance Committee. She felt it was more effective to discuss long range
financing, budget forecasting and policy discussions in a smaller group setting and then forward it to the
full Council. She included the Council President in the Finance Committee to add a third member. She
supported trying the alternating study session with only the Finance Committee and if a Councilmember
had an issue with a Consent Agenda item, it could be pulled.
Council President Buckshnis said in Council Presidents, Councilmembers and Mayors in other cities
agree this is a more efficient method; it avoids duplication of work and information and allows for better
communication between Councilmembers and with the public. If the public is uncomfortable with being
filmed during a Council during study sessions, their comments can be audio recorded rather than filmed.
Councilmember Peterson said he was initially undecided about keeping the Finance Committee; it makes
sense as it is the basis of a lot of decisions. With only the Finance Committee, it can be televised and
additional Councilmembers can attend the Finance Committee meeting if they wish because the meetings
are noticed as open public meeting. Televising the Finance Committee meetings also allows the public to
see the steps in the process. If all three committees are retained, there is no way to televise all three.
Packet Page 109 of 342
Councilmember Bloom asked how the Finance Committee meeting could be televised. Councilmember
Peterson explained their meeting would be held before the work session. If all Councilmembers can
attend the Finance Committee meeting and it is televised, Councilmember Bloom pointed out the items
could just be discussed at a full Council meeting. She supported having two work sessions per month.
However, during the budget process it was her understanding the Council President found it difficult to
schedule agenda items and she anticipated it would be even more difficult if action would not be taken at
two meetings per month.
Councilmember Petso agreed with Councilmember Bloom’s comment regarding scheduling in the final
quarter of year. She experienced that last year and recalled Councilmember Peterson chastising the
Council with the phrase, “we’re running out of Tuesdays in this calendar year.” If the Council chooses to
change the format, she suggested beginning in January.
Council President Buckshnis recalled last year there was a closed record review that consumed a great
deal of the Council’s time. She has worked with Mayor and Directors on the extended agenda and
preferred to try the proposed process beginning in October. She reiterated her support for retaining the
Finance Committee, pointing out three of four cities have a Finance Committee and it is important to have
policy discussion and long term planning in a committee meeting.
Mayor Earling advised the discussion will continue next week. Council President Buckshnis relayed the
agenda item next week will include action.
Mayor Earling declared a brief recess.
10. DISCUSSION OF PLANNING BOARD'S RECOMMENDATION FOR PROPOSED ZONING
CHANGES RELATED TO WESTGATE
Planning Manager Rob Chave provided background on the Westgate code discussion:
• Public hearing on August 4, 2014
• Staff has reviewed the hearing record and follow-up discussion on the draft code. As part of that
review, staff suggested:
o Make sure that the code is consistent with the expressed intent
o Remove inconsistencies
• Approximately a dozen issues were combined into seven discussion topics:
1. Commercial requirements
• Clarifying the various building types to include commercial requirements, especially
regarding the commercial mixed use types
Building Type Residential Uses Office Uses Retail
1. Rowhouse Any floor Not allowed Not allowed
2. Courtyard Any floor Ground floor only Ground floor only
3. Stacked dwellings Any floor Ground floor only Ground floor only
4. Live-work Not ground floor Ground floor only Ground floor only
5. Loft mixed use Not ground floor Any floor Any floor
6. Side Court Mixed use Not ground floor Any floor Ground floor only
7. Commercial Mixed use Not ground floor Not ground floor Any floor
8. Assuring commercial space
• Adjusted the building type location diagram (page 8) to be more consistent with the
overall intended commercial mixed use chapter of Westgate. (The old diagram is
included on page 9 for reference, but will be deleted if the new diagram on page 8 is
preferable.
Packet Page 110 of 342
is considering, it is the intensity of adjacent land uses. Ecology suggested the interim designation to allow
the City and the Port to determine reach agreement on development in Urban Mixed Use IV environment.
The Port has expressed support for a 50-foot buffer. Ecology’s letter recommends the Council consider
changing the proposed marsh buffer to a 50-foot minimum width with an interim designation and add
additional language that recognizes the final buffer and setback will be determined within the Harbor
Square redevelopment process.
Councilmember Mesaros asked whether the setback had to be 50 feet or 150 feet or could it be 75 feet.
Mr. Lien answered it can be whatever the Council sets. The 50-foot setback recommended by the
Planning Board was considered to be consistent with the no net loss requirement. The 150-foot setback
originally came from Small Jurisdiction Wetlands Guidance where Category 1 wetlands such as the
Edmonds Marsh have a 150-foot buffer. Ecology noted through their SMP handbook that a setback alone
without a buffer requirement would meet the SMA requirement. Setting the setback at 50 feet is wider
than the current 25-foot open space requirement in the current contract rezone. Councilmember Mesaros
pointed out this proposal doubles the existing requirement. Mr. Lien agreed.
Councilmember Peterson expressed concern with the 150-foot setback particularly with the
redevelopment that is occurring at the Antique Mall property. He asked whether the Port could do any
stormwater mitigation in the Antique Mall parking lot with a 150-foot setback. Mr. Lien answered that
would be considered a restoration project and would be allowed with the 150-foot setback.
Councilmember Peterson commented if a restaurant moved in, a view of the marsh would be
advantageous. He asked whether a deck could be constructed on the back of one of the buildings. Mr.
Lien answered not within the 150-foot setback. Councilmember Peterson referred to one of the building
where 3/4th of the buildings was in the setback and asked whether a roof penetration could be done to
install a hood. Mr. Lien answered improvements can be made within the existing building footprint but
the nonconformity cannot be expanded by adding anything in the setback area.
Councilmember Fraley-Monillas referred to language in the letter from Ecology that states within this
designation the Council has approved a 50-foot buffer with a 100-foot setback. The purpose of the interim
designation is to give the Port and the City time to negotiate development plans for the Harbor Square
property. Ecology agrees with the concept of an interim designation for this property. Ecology is available
to help reach agreement on this important decision. Mr. Lien responded that was the reason for his
concern with the interim designation; Ecology suggested the interim designation assuming the City and
the Port are working together. Councilmember Fraley-Monillas observed the City and Port have not been
working together. Ecology’s offer to help reach an agreement is an important step in determining the best
setback and buffer. Mr. Lien agreed that could be worked on during the next two years.
Council President Pro Tem Johnson raised an issue that was discussed at the Planning Board; an area of
the 25-foot open space area between Harbor Square and the marsh that has been graveled and used for
temporary parking. She asked what steps have been/will be taken to restore that to open space and remove
the temporary parking. Mr. Lien answered no steps have been taken to remove the gravel parking next to
Harbor Square Athletic Club.
Councilmember Petso observed the letter from Ecology was dated spring 2014, the decision on the Port
plan was fall 2013. Mr. Lien answered the decision on the Port Master Plan was the end of 2013; he
acknowledged it has been awhile since this was discussed.
Mr. Lien advised a public hearing is scheduled on September 16.
11. DISCUSSION REGARDING CITY COUNCIL MEETING FORMAT
Packet Page 111 of 342
Development Services Director Shane Hope recalled the Council’s discussion last week as a follow up to
discussion at a retreat regarding ways for the Council to work together better and options for dialogue
without voting. The proposal is to alternate study sessions and business meetings and not have
committees other than a Finance Committee to address routine or designated business. Not having
committee meetings would allow all Councilmembers to hear presentations and Q&A and not have it
done twice, once at a committee meeting and again at a Council meeting.
Councilmember Mesaros reiterated he was in favor of this format. However, if the Finance Committee
continued to meet, he recommended the other two committees also continue to meet. If the purpose is to
allow the full Council to discuss items, he recommended not having any committee meetings. If finance is
such an important topic, the full Council should be provided the information at a study session that would
have been provided at a Finance Committee meeting.
Councilmember Bloom agreed with Councilmember Mesaros’ suggestion. If the intent was for the
Finance Committee to meet at 6 p.m. and have the regular Council meeting start at 7 p.m., the Council
meeting could simply start early and all Councilmembers could attend. Her primary concern with
eliminating all the committees is her research found an average of 17.2 committee meeting agenda items
per month. The committees screen items that come to the Council on a regular basis and schedule them on
the Consent Agenda which she felt was very efficient; Councilmembers have the option of pulling an item
from Consent. Some items reviewed by committee should go to the Council such as the Public Works
Quarterly Report. Rather than eliminating all the committees, she suggested the Council decide what
items should regularly come to the Council to prevent them from being reviewed in committee and by the
full Council. She was inclined not to change the Council meeting format unless all the committees were
eliminated.
COUNCIL PRESIDENT PRO TEM JOHNSON MOVED, SECONDED BY COUNCIL
PRESIDENT BUCKSHNIS, TO DIRECT THE CITY ATTORNEY TO CREATE AN
ORDINANCE TO BRING BACK TO THE CITY COUNCIL TO AUTHORIZE STUDY SESSIONS
FOR THE COUNCIL’S FUTURE FORMAT SO THAT THERE WOULD BE TWO BUSINESS
SESSIONS AND TWO STUDY SESSIONS PER MONTH.
Councilmember Petso asked for clarification regarding what would happen with the committees under
Council President Pro Tem Johnson’s motion. Council President Pro Tem Johnson answered time will tell
what works best. She wanted the Council to have better dialogue with staff in the study session. She
recalled Finance Director Scott James said the Finance Committee meeting does not necessarily have to
be held Tuesday at 6 p.m.; it could be held at any time. Mr. James’ interest in retaining the Finance
Committee was not to do the regular work the committee is doing now but to have a long term strategy.
That could include all or some of the Council.
COUNCILMEMBER FRALEY-MONILLAS MOVED, SECONDED BY COUNCILMEMBER
PETERSON, TO AMEND THE MOTION TO REMOVE ALL COMMITTEE MEETINGS.
Councilmember Fraley-Monillas suggested starting without committee meetings and add them if
necessary. With regard to the Finance Committee, she felt it would be beneficial for all Councilmembers
to hear what occurs in the Finance Committee meetings. She suggested 15-30 minutes could be spent
during a study session to discuss Finance Committee meeting topics. She supported the study
session/business meeting format because she liked to hear why items were scheduled on the Consent
Agenda or the full agenda, noting it seemed to differ based on the Councilmembers on the committee or
even staff assigned to the committee; there was no consistency. She anticipated the Council may be able
to review agenda items more quickly with this format.
Councilmember Peterson suggested the first half hour of the first study session of the month consider
Finance Committee meeting topics.
Packet Page 112 of 342
In response to Councilmember Fraley-Monillas’ concern with why some items are scheduled on the
Consent Agenda and others are schedule for full Council, Councilmember Bloom relayed her
understanding that items that would be scheduled on the Consent Agenda would not be presented to the
full Council. The Council President would determine which items would be scheduled on the Consent
Agenda. Councilmember Fraley-Monillas suggested that could be worked out, perhaps by a smaller
subgroup; she supported abolishing the committees. Councilmember Bloom referred to the average of
17.2 items per month discussed by committee which equated to 8 items per study session in addition to
regular agenda items.
Mayor Pro Tem Buckshnis commented there are some routine things that are always scheduled on
Consent. Each meeting will have an agenda that includes a Consent Agenda each meeting.
Councilmembers can pull items from the Consent Agenda.
AMENDMENT CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY.
MAIN MOTION AS AMENDED CARRIED (6-1), COUNCILMEMBER PETSO VOTING NO.
For Mayor Pro Tem Buckshnis, Mr. Taraday explained the motion directed him to prepare an ordinance.
The Council did not need to wait until the effective date of the ordinance to implement the new process.
Under the current code, the Council has four meetings per month; the Council can decide to the two of the
meetings be study sessions and two be business meetings.
Mayor Pro Tem Buckshnis suggested the first study session be held on October 14.

Presentation on the Sustainability Element of the 2015 Comprehensive Plan Update.
Recommendation
Concur that the Planning Board's recommended draft Sustainability Element update is acceptable at this
time. (Note: Actual adoption of all updated elements together would be considered in mid-2015 as the
final step for the major Comprehensive Plan update.)
Previous Council Action
The City Council discussed the 2014 and 2015 Comprehensive Plan update process at its July 1 meeting
and provided consensus for staff to move forward with preparing a minor update for 2014 and a
more significant update in 2015. The Council reviewed the 2015 Plan update schedule at its July 22,
2014 meeting.
Narrative
Cities and counties are required to do a major review and update of their comprehensive plans
periodically. Our region's current deadline is mid-2015. To meet the deadline, the City Council gave
direction to proceed based on a schedule that allows a draft update for each element to be considered
one-by-one, followed by final consideration to adopt the updated Plan in mid-2015. The update focus is
on: (a) refreshing the data in the plan, (b) adding a performance measure for each key element, and (c)
considering minor changes as needed to reflect new information.
This is one of a series of progress reports for the 2015 Comprehensive Plan Update. The report covers the
Planning Board's proposal for updating the Sustainability Element of the Comprehensive Plan.
The Planning Board has reviewed the Sustainability Element of the Comprehensive Plan and proposed
some minor wording updates, along with a new section that includes a proposed 'action' and 'performance
measure.' The Planning Board's review draft and minutes are attached as Exhibits 1 and 2.
Please refer to the attached Exhibits for further background on the plan update process.

Community Sustainability Element
Background: Climate Change, Community Health,
and Environmental Quality
Introduction. A relatively recent term, “sustainability” has many definitions. A commonly cited
definition is one put forward by the Brundtland Commission1 in a report of the World Commission on
Environment and Development (December 11, 1987). The Commission defined sustainable
development as development that “meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of
future generations to meet their own needs.” Not focused solely on environmental sustainability, the
Commission’s report emphasized the inter-related nature of environmental, economic, and social
factors in sustainability. One of the keys to success in sustainability is recognizing that decision-
making must be based on an integration of economic with environmental and social factors.
The City of Edmonds Comprehensive Plan contains a number of different elements, some mandated
by the Growth Management Act, and others included because they are important to the Edmonds
community. A requirement of the Growth Management Act is that the various comprehensive plan
elements be consistent with one another. This Community Sustainability Element is intended to
provide a framework tying the other plan elements together, illustrating how the overall plan direction
supports sustainability within the Edmonds community. A key aspect of this approach is also to
provide more direct linkages between long term planning and shorter-term strategic planning and
policy review which guide the use of city resources and programs, especially budgeting. For example,
a new emphasis on life cycle efficiency may take precedence over simple least-cost analytical
methods.
The City of Edmonds is gifted with unique environmental assets, such as the shoreline on Puget
Sound, the Edmonds Marsh, urban forests, diverse streams and wetlands, Lake Ballinger and a range
of parks and open spaces. In addition, the city has the benefit of an established, walkable downtown
served by transit, a framework of neighborhood commercial centers providing local access to
business services, and the potential to see significant economic development in the Highway 99
activity center. Recently, the City has also experienced the beginnings of new economic initiatives,
such as a new fiber-optic infrastructure and locally-based businesses and organizations supporting
local sustainability and greenhouse gas (GHG) reduction approaches. Combined with local
government initiatives, such as the Mayor’s Citizens Committee on U.S. Mayors’ Climate Protection
Agreement and a series of resolutions adopted by the Edmonds City Council, there is a growing
recognition and harnessing of the power of citizen knowledge to encourage and support changes in
City policies and operations which are making the City a leader in environmental stewardship.
Given this combination of assets and knowledge, the City of Edmonds has a compelling
responsibility to utilize these capabilities to address the challenges of climate change, community
health and environmental quality.

Community Sustainability 19
Sustainability Framework
This section describes the general goals and principles underlying the City’s approach to community
sustainability. Three important guiding principles central to a successful approach are:
Flexible – In an environment where what we understand and can predict is still developing
and will be uncertain for some time to come, providing ways to monitor, assess, adapt, and to
be flexible in our responses will be critical. Climate change is but one example; the
uncertainties acknowledged in that subject area should be instructive in helping us understand
that a flexible approach is necessary when addressing all areas of sustainability.
Holistic – The components of sustainability – in terms of both its inputs and outputs –are
complex and synergistic. No single action will result in a sustainable result, and sustainable
initiatives taken in one area don’t necessarily lead to sustainability in another. For example,
sustainable land use practices don’t necessarily result in a sustainable transportation or health
system. A holistic approach is required that includes all levels of governance and
encompasses planning, funding, evaluation, monitoring, and implementation.
Long-term – Focusing on short-term, expedient solutions will only make actions necessary
to support sustainability more difficult to take in the future. For example, in the areas of
environmental issues and climate change, deferred action now will only make the cumulative
effects more difficult to resolve in the future. The familiar GMA-based 20-year planning
timeframe will not be sufficient – planning for sustainability must take an even longer view.
Sustainability Goal A. Develop land use policies, programs, and regulations designed to support
and promote sustainability. Encourage a mix and location of land uses designed to increase
accessibility of Edmonds residents to services, recreation, jobs, and housing.
A.1 Adopt a system of codes, standards and incentives to promote development that
achieves growth management goals while maintaining Edmonds’ community
character and charm in a sustainable way. Holistic solutions should be developed
that employ such techniques as Low Impact Development (LID), transit-oriented
development, “complete streets” that support multiple modes of travel, and other
techniques to assure that future development and redevelopment enhances
Edmonds’ character and charm for future generations to enjoy.
A.2 Include urban form and design as critical components of sustainable land use
planning. New tools, such as form-based zoning and context-sensitive design
standards should be used to support a flexible land use system which seeks to
provide accessible, compatible and synergistic land use patterns which encourage
economic and social interaction while retaining privacy and a unique community
character.
A.3 Integrate land use plans and implementation tools with transportation, housing,
cultural and recreational, and economic development planning so as to form a
cohesive and mutually-supporting whole.
Packet Page 118 of 342
20 Community Sustainability
A.4 Use both long-term and strategic planning tools to tie short term actions and land
use decisions to long-term sustainability goals. City land use policies and decision
criteria should reflect and support sustainability goals and priorities.
Sustainability Goal B. Develop transportation policies, programs, and regulations designed to
support and promote sustainability. Take actions to reduce the use of fuel and energy in
transportation, and encourage various modes of transportation that reduce reliance on automobiles
and are supported by transportation facilities and accessibility throughout the community.
B.1 Undertake a multi-modal approach to transportation planning that promotes an
integrated system of auto, transit, biking, walking and other forms of transportation
designed to effectively support mobility and access.
B.2 Actively work with transit providers to maximize and promote transit opportunities
within the Edmonds community while providing links to other communities both
within and outside the region.
B.3 Explore and support the use of alternative fuels and transportation operations that
reduce GHG emissions.
B.4 When undertaking transportation planning and service decisions, evaluate and
encourage land use patterns and policies that support a sustainable transportation
system.
B.5 Strategically plan and budget for transportation priorities that balances ongoing
facility and service needs with long-term improvements that support a sustainable,
multi-modal transportation system.
B.6 Strategically design transportation options – including bike routes, pedestrian trails
and other non-motorized solutions – to support and anticipate land use and
economic development priorities.
Sustainability Goal C. Promote seamless transportation linkages between the Edmonds
community and the rest of the Puget Sound region.
C.1 Take an active role in supporting and advocating regional solutions to
transportation and land use challenges.
C.2 Local transportation options should be designed to be coordinated with and support
inter-city and regional transportation programs and solutions.
C.3 Advocate for local priorities and connections and the promotion of system-wide
flexibility and ease of use in regional transportation decisions.
Sustainability Goal D. Develop utility policies, programs, and maintenance measures designed
to support and promote sustainability and energy efficiency. Maintain existing utility systems
while seeking to expand the use of alternative energy and sustainable maintenance and building
practices in city facilities.
Packet Page 119 of 342
Community Sustainability 21
D.1 Balance and prioritize strategic and short-term priorities for maintenance and
ongoing infrastructure needs with long-term economic development and
sustainability goals.
D.2 Strategically program utility and infrastructure improvements to support and
anticipate land use and economic development priorities.
D.3 Explore and employ alternative systems and techniques, such as life-cycle cost
analysis, designed to maximize investments, minimize waste, and/or reduce
ongoing maintenance and facilities costs.
D.4 Include sustainability considerations, such as environmental impact, green
infrastructure (emphasizing natural systems and processes), and GHG reduction, in
the design and maintenance of facilities and infrastructure.
Sustainability Goal E. Develop economic development policies and programs designed to
support and promote sustainability and energy efficiency. Encourage the co-location of jobs with
housing in the community, seeking to expand residents’ ability to work in close proximity to their
homes. Encourage and support infrastructure initiatives and land use policies that encourage and
support home-based work and business activities that supplement traditional business and
employment concentrations.
E.1 Economic development should support and encourage the expansion of locally-
based business and employment opportunities.
E.2 Land use policies and implementation tools should be designed to provide for
mixed use development and local access to jobs, housing, and services.
E.3 Regulatory and economic initiatives should emphasize flexibility and the ability to
anticipate and meet evolving employment, technological, and economic patterns.
E.4 Land use and regulatory schemes should be designed to encourage and support the
ability of local residents to work, shop, and obtain services locally.
E.5 Land use and economic development programs should provide for appropriate
scale and design integration of economic activities with neighborhoods while
promoting patterns that provide accessibility and efficient transportation options.
Sustainability Goal F. Develop cultural and recreational programs designed to support and
promote sustainability. Networks of parks, walkways, public art and cultural facilities and events
should be woven into the community’s fabric to encourage sense of place and the overall health
and well being of the community.
F.1 Cultural and arts programs should be supported and nourished as an essential part
of the City’s social, economic, and health infrastructure.
F.2 Recreational opportunities and programming should be integrated holistically into
the City’s infrastructure and planning process.
Packet Page 120 of 342
22 Community Sustainability
F.3 Cultural, arts, and recreational programming should be an integral part of City
design and facilities standards, and should be integrated into all planning,
promotion, and economic development initiatives.
Sustainability Goal G. Develop housing policies, programs, and regulations designed to support
and promote sustainability. Support and encourage a mix of housing types and styles which
provide people with affordable housing choices geared to changes in life style. Seek to form
public and private partnerships to retain and promote affordable housing options.
G.1 Land use and housing programs should be designed to provide for existing housing
needs while providing flexibility to adapt to evolving housing needs and choices.
G.2 Housing should be viewed as a community resource, providing opportunities for
residents to choose to stay in the community as their needs and resources evolve
and change over time.
G.3 Support the development of housing tools, such as inclusionary zoning incentives
and affordable housing programs, that promote a variety of housing types and
affordability levels into all developments.

Climate Change
Introduction. The quality of the environment we live in is a critical part of what people often
describe as the “character” of Edmonds. Even if it is not something we overtly think about, it is an
intrinsic part of our everyday experience, whether at work, at rest or at play. Until relatively recently,
environmental quality has often been thought of in terms of obvious, easily observable characteristics
– such as the visible landscape, the quality of the air, the presence and variety of wildlife, or the
availability and character of water in its various forms. However, recent evidence on climate change2
points to the potential fragility of our assumptions about the environment and the need to integrate
and heighten the awareness of environmental issues as they are inter-related with all community
policies and activities.
Recognizing the importance of addressing the issues surrounding the environment and climate
change, in September 2006, the City of Edmonds formally expressed support for the Kyoto Protocol3
and adopted the U.S. Mayors Climate Protection Agreement4 by Resolution No. 1129, and joined the
International Council for Local Environmental Initiatives (ICLEI)5 by Resolution No. 1130.
Scientific evidence and consensus continues to strengthen the idea that climate change is an urgent
threat to the environmental and economic health of our communities. Many cities, in this country and
abroad, already have strong local policies and programs in place to reduce global warming pollution,
but more action is needed at the local, state, and federal levels to meet the challenge. On February 16,
2005 the Kyoto Protocol, the international agreement to address climate change, became law for the
141 countries that have ratified it to date. On that day, Seattle Mayor Greg Nickels launched an
initiative to advance the goals of the Kyoto Protocol through leadership and action by at least 141
American cities.
The State of Washington has also been taking steps to address the issues surrounding climate change.
For example, in March, 2008, the state legislature passed ESSHB 2815, which included monitoring
and reporting mandates for state agencies along with the following emission reduction targets:
Sec. 3. (1)(a) The state shall limit emissions of greenhouse gases to achieve the
following emission reductions for Washington state:
(i) By 2020, reduce overall emissions of greenhouse gases in the state to 1990
levels;
(ii) By 2035, reduce overall emissions of greenhouse gases in the state to twenty-
five percent below 1990 levels;
(iii) By 2050, the state will do its part to reach global climate stabilization levels
by reducing overall emissions to fifty percent below 1990 levels, or seventy
percent below the state's expected emissions that year.
The City of Edmonds has formally approved the U.S. Mayors Climate Protection Agreement which
was endorsed by the 73rd Annual U.S. Conference of Mayors meeting, Chicago, 2005. Under the
Agreement, participating cities committed to take three sets of actions:
Packet Page 122 of 342
24 Community Sustainability
1. Urge the federal government and state governments to enact policies and programs to meet or
beat the target of reducing global warming pollution levels to 7 percent below 1990 levels by
2012, including efforts to: reduce the United States’ dependence on fossil fuels and accelerate
the development of clean, economical energy resources and fuel-efficient technologies such
as conservation, methane recovery for energy generation, waste to energy, wind and solar
energy, fuel cells, efficient motor vehicles, and biofuels.
2. Urge the U.S. Congress to pass bipartisan greenhouse gas reduction legislation that 1)
includes clear timetables and emissions limits and 2) a flexible, market-based system of
tradable allowances among emitting industries
3. Strive to meet or exceed Kyoto Protocol targets for reducing global warming pollution by
taking actions in our own operations and community.
Given this background, the City of Edmonds recognizes that global climate change brings significant
risks to our community as a shoreline city. At the same time, the City understands that we have a
responsibility to play a leadership role both within our own community as well as the larger Puget
Sound region. To that end, the City establishes the following goals and policies addressing climate
change.
Climate Change Goal A. Inventory and monitor community greenhouse gas emissions,
establishing carbon footprint baselines and monitoring programs to measure future progress and
program needs.
A.1 Establish baselines for greenhouse gas emissions and carbon footprint for both
Edmonds city government and the broader Edmonds community.
A.2 Establish a monitoring program for consistently updating estimates on City and
community greenhouse gas emissions. The monitoring program should be designed
so as to enable a comparison between measurement periods.
A.3 The monitoring program should include assessment measures which (1) measure
progress toward greenhouse gas reduction goals and (2) evaluate the effectiveness
of or need for programs to work toward these goals.
Climate Change Goal B. Establish targets for reducing greenhouse gas emissions and promoting
sustainability for both city government and the Edmonds community. Regularly assess progress
and program needs, identifying opportunities and obstacles for meeting greenhouse gas emission
targets and sustainability.
B.1 City government should take the lead in developing and promoting GHG emissions
reduction for the Edmonds community.
B.2 Establish and evaluate targets for reductions in greenhouse gas emissions for both
Edmonds city government and the broader Edmonds community. Targets should be
set for both short- and long-range evaluation.
B.2.a. By 2020, reduce overall emissions of greenhouse gases to 1990 levels;
Packet Page 123 of 342
Community Sustainability 25
B.2.b. By 2035, reduce overall emissions of greenhouse gases to twenty-five
percent below 1990 levels;
B.2.c. By 2050, Edmonds will do its part to reach global climate stabilization
levels by reducing overall emissions to fifty percent below 1990 levels, or
seventy percent below the expected emissions that year.
B.3 Establish measures for evaluating the degree of sustainability of Edmonds city
government and the broader Edmonds community.
B.4 Annually assess the status and progress toward emissions reduction goals.
Climate Change Goal C. Assess the risks and potential impacts on both city government
operations and on the larger Edmonds community due to climate change. The assessment of risk
and potential responses – both in terms of mitigation and adaptation – should evaluate the full
range of issues, paying particular attention to those arising from the city’s location on Puget
Sound.
C.1 Develop a climate change risk assessment and impact analysis for city government
facilities and operations.
C.2 Develop a climate change risk assessment and impact analysis for the Edmonds
community which considers the potential long-term impacts to economic, land use,
and other community patterns as well as the risks associated with periodic weather
or climate events.
Climate Change Goal D. Work with public and private partners to develop strategies and
programs to prepare for and mitigate the potential impacts of climate change, both on city
government operations and on the general Edmonds community.
D.1 Develop a strategic plan that will help guide and focus City resources and program
initiatives to (1) reduce greenhouse gas production and the carbon footprint of City
government and the Edmonds community, and, (2) reduce and minimize the
potential risks of climate change. The strategic plan should be coordinated with and
leverage state and regional goals and initiatives, but Edmonds should look for and
take the lead where we see opportunities unique to the Edmonds community.
D.2 Build on and expand the strategic action plan to include programs that can involve
both public and private partners.
D.3 Undertake a policy review of City comprehensive, strategic and specific plans to
assure that City policies are appropriately targeted to prepare for and mitigate
potential impacts of climate change. These reviews may be done to correspond
with scheduled plan updates, or accelerated where either a higher priority is
identified or the next update is not specifically scheduled.

26 Community Sustainability
Climate Change Goal E. Develop mitigation strategies that can be used by both the public and
private sectors to help mitigate the potential impacts of new and ongoing development and
operations. Develop programs and strategies that will encourage the retrofitting of existing
development and infrastructure to mitigate and adapt to the effects of climate change.
E.1 Develop policies and strategies for land use and development that result in reduced
greenhouse gas emissions for new development as well as redevelopment
activities.
E.2 Develop mitigation programs and incentives that both public and private
development entities can use to reduce or offset potential greenhouse gas emissions
associated with both new development and redevelopment.
E.3 Develop programs and incentives that encourage existing land use, buildings, and
infrastructure to reduce their carbon footprint. Demonstration programs and other
cost-efficient efforts that do not rely on long-term government subsidies are
preferred, unless dedicated funding sources can be found to sustain these efforts
over time.
2 For example, see the Fourth Assessment Report; Climate Change 2007: Synthesis Report, by the
Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, February 2007.
3 The Kyoto Protocol was adopted at the third Conference of the Parties to the United Nations Framework
Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) in Kyoto, Japan, on 11, December 1997, and established
potentially binding targets and timetables for cutting the greenhouse-gas emissions of industrialized countries.
The Kyoto Protocol has not been ratified by the U.S. government. 4 The U.S. Mayors Climate Protection Agreement is as amended by the 73rd Annual U.S. Conference of Mayors
meeting in Chicago in 2005.
5 ICLEI was founded in 1990 as the International Council for Local Environmental Initiatives following the World
Congress of Local Governments for a Sustainable Future, held at the United Nations in New York.

Community Health
Introduction. Community health as it is used here means the overall aspects of public facilities and
actions that can have an effect on the health and welfare of the community’s citizens. The focus here
is on the public realm, understanding that public actions and policies can have an impact on the well-
being of Edmonds citizens. The idea is that whenever possible, government should be an enabler,
supporting the expansion of opportunities for people so that they can be as self-sustaining as possible,
thereby reducing the potential need for intervention from government, community-based or privately-
derived services – services which are becoming increasingly costly and difficult to provide.
Community health is closely linked to land use, transportation, public service delivery, and
environmental quality. Clean water and clean air are a basic necessity when seeking to keep people
healthy. In addition, there are certain land use and other actions that Edmonds can take to help foster
healthy lifestyles throughout the community. Government also has a role in providing basic services,
such as police and fire protection, while encouraging access to affordable housing and opportunities
to live, work, and shop close to home.
Transportation systems, development patterns, community design, and planning decisions can have
profound effects on health and wellbeing. All citizens should be able to live, work, and play in
environments that facilitate physical activity and offer healthy choices.
Community Health Goal A. Develop a reporting and monitoring system of indicators designed
to assess Edmonds’ progress toward sustainable community health.
A.1 Develop community indicators designed to measure the City’s progress toward a
sustainable community.
A.2 Use these community indicators to inform long-term, mid-term (strategic), and
budgetary decision-making.
Community Health Goal B. Develop and maintain ongoing City programs and infrastructure
designed to support sustainable community health.
B.1 Promote a healthy community by encouraging and supporting diversity in culture
and the arts.
B.2 Promote a healthy community by encouraging and supporting access to recreation
and physical activity.
B.3 Integrate land-use, transportation, community design, and economic development
planning with public health planning to increase opportunities for recreation,
physical activity and exposure to the natural environment. Promote a healthy
community by pOne example is planning for and implementing a connected system
of walkways and bikeways which will provide alternative forms of transportation
while also encouraging recreation, and physical activity and exposure to the
natural environment.
Packet Page 126 of 342
28 Community Sustainability
B.4 Promote a healthy community by seeking to protect and enhance the natural
environment through a balanced program of education, regulation, and incentives.
Environmental programs in Edmonds should be tailored to and reflect the unique
opportunities and challenges embodied in a mature, sea-side community with a
history of environmental protection and awareness.
B.5 Develop and encourage volunteer opportunities in community projects that
promote community health. Examples of such programs include beach clean-ups,
walk-to-school groups, and helpers for the elderly or disabled.
B.6 Increase access to health-promoting foods and beverages in the community. Form
partnerships with organizations or worksites, such as health care facilities and
schools, to encourage healthy foods and beverages.
Community Health Goal C. Promote a healthy community by encouraging and supporting a
diverse and creative education system, providing educational opportunities for people of all ages
and all stages of personal development, including those with special needs or disabilities.
C.1 City regulatory and planning activities should be supported by education programs
which seek to explain and encourage progress toward desired outcomes rather then
relying solely on rules and penalties.
C.2 The City should partner with educational and governmental organizations to
encourage community access to information and education. Examples include the
Edmonds School District, Edmonds Community College, Sno-Isle Library, the
State of Washington (including the Departments of Ecology and Fish and
Wildlife), and the various private and public educational programs available to the
Edmonds community.
C.3 Encourage and support broad and flexible educational opportunities, including both
traditional and new or emerging initiatives, such as technology-based solutions.
Education should be flexible in both content and delivery.
Community Health Goal D. Promote a healthy community through supporting and encouraging
the development of economic opportunities for all Edmonds’ citizens.
D.1 Sustainable economic health should be based on encouraging a broad range of
economic activity, with an emphasis on locally-based businesses and economic
initiatives which provide family-supporting wages and incomes.
D.2 Encourage the provision of a variety of types and styles of housing that will
support and accommodate different citizens’ needs and life styles. The diversity of
people living in Edmonds should be supported by a diversity of housing so that all
citizens can find suitable housing now and as they progress through changes in
their households and life stages.
D.3 Encourage the development and preservation of affordable housing.
D.4 Develop programs and activities that promote and support a diverse population and
culture, encouraging a mix of ages and backgrounds.
Packet Page 127 of 342
Community Sustainability 29
Community Health Goal E. Support a healthy community by providing a full range of public
services, infrastructure, and support systems.
E.1 Recognize the importance of City services to local community character and
sustainability by planning for and integrating public safety and health services into
both short- and long-term planning and budgeting. Strategic planning should be a
regular part of the decision-making process underlying the provision of these
services to the community.
E.2 Reduce energy consumption and maximize energy efficiency by promoting
programs and educational initiatives aimed at a goal to “reduce, re-use, and
recycle” at an individual and community-wide level. Reduce material consumption,
waste generation, and resource depletion.
E.3 Future planning and budgeting should be based on full life-cycle cost analysis and
facility maintenance needs, as well as standards of service that best fit clearly
articulated and supported community needs.
Community Health Goal F. Support a healthy community by providing for community health
care and disaster preparedness.
F.1 Plan for and prepare disaster preparedness plans which can be implemented as
necessary to respond effectively to the impacts of natural or man-induced disasters
on Edmonds residents.
F.2 Prepare and implement hazard mitigation plans to reduce and minimize, to the
extent feasible, the exposure of Edmonds citizens to future disasters or hazards.
F.3 Promote food security and public health by encouraging locally-based food
production, distribution, and choice through the support of home and community
gardens, farmers or public markets, and other small-scale, collaborative initiatives.
F.4 Support food assistance programs and promote economic security for low income
families and individuals.
F.5 Promote and support community health by supporting national, state and local
health programs and the local provision of health services.

Environmental Quality
Introduction. The environmental quality and beauty of the City of Edmonds is largely reflected
through its natural resources, and especially its location on the shores of Puget Sound. The city’s
watersheds – including Lake Ballinger, a well-known landmark – and streams that flow into the
Sound provide a rich and diverse water resource. The beaches, wetlands, and streams provide habitat
for diverse wildlife including many species of migrating and resident birds which adds to the aesthetic
and pleasing quality of the environment.
As Edmonds has grown and developed, what were once abundant native forest and wetland habitats
have now become increasingly scarce. Nonetheless, our parks, open spaces, and the landscaped areas
of our neighborhoods integrate pleasing vistas and differentiation necessary to provide relief in a
highly developed landscape. Throughout the city, woodlands, streams, wetlands and marine areas
contain native vegetation that provide food and cover for a diverse population of fish and wildlife.
Preserving and restoring these natural resources through environmental stewardship remains a high
priority for the Edmonds community. Healthy ecosystems are the source of many less tangible
benefits that humans derive from a relationship with nature such as providing a sense of well-being
and sites for nature trails and other educational and recreational opportunities. Some ecological
services that native plants and trees provide are stabilizing slopes and reducing erosion, replenishing
the soil with nutrients and water, providing barriers to wind and sound, filtering pollutants from the
air and soil, and generating oxygen and absorbing carbon dioxide. Our city beaches and the near-
shore environment also represent unique habitats for marine organisms.
So interconnected are the benefits of a functioning ecosystem, that non-sustainable approaches to land
development and management practices can have effects that ripple throughout the system. The
combination of marine, estuarine, and upland environments should be seen as an integrated and inter-
dependent ecosystem supporting a variety of wildlife valuable to the entire Edmonds community.
Environmental Quality Goal A. Protect environmental quality within the Edmonds community
through the enforcement of community-based environmental regulations that reinforce and are
integrated with relevant regional, state and national environmental standards.
A.1 Ensure that the city’s natural vegetation associated with its urban forests, wetlands,
and other wildlife habitat areas are protected and enhanced for future generations.
A.2 City regulations and incentives should be designed to support and require
sustainable land use and development practices, including the retention of urban
forest land, native vegetation, and wildlife habitat areas. Techniques such as tree
retention and low impact development methods should be integrated into land use
and development codes.
A.3 Provide for clean air and water quality through the support of state and regional
initiatives and regulations.
A.4 Coordinate land use and transportation plans and implementation actions to support
clean air an water.
Packet Page 129 of 342
Community Sustainability 31
Environmental Quality Goal B. Promote the improvement of environmental quality within the
Edmonds community by designing and implementing programs based on a system of incentives
and public education.
B.1 The City should promote and increase public awareness and pride in its natural
areas and wildlife heritage. Special emphasis should be directed toward preserving
natural areas and habitats (forests, wetlands, streams and beaches) that support a
diversity of wildlife.
B.2 Education and recreation programs should be designed and made available for all
ages.
B.3 Environmental education should be coordinated and integrated with other cultural,
arts, and tourism programs.
B.4 To encourage adherence to community values and goals, education programs
should be designed to help promote understanding and explain the reasons behind
environmental programs and regulations.
Environmental Quality Goal C. Develop, monitor, and enforce critical areas regulations
designed to enhance and protect environmentally sensitive areas within the city consistent with
the best available science.
C.1 Critical areas will be designated and protected using the best available science
pursuant to RCW 36.70A.172.
C.2 In addition to regulations, provide incentives that encourage environmental
stewardship, resource conservation, and environmental enhancement during
development activities.
Environmental Quality Goal D. Develop, implement, and monitor a shoreline master program,
consistent with state law, to enhance and protect the quality of the shoreline environment
consistent with the best available science.
D.1 Adopt a Shoreline Master Program that meets the requirements of state law and is
consistent with community goals while being based on the best available science

Implementing Sustainability
Introduction. One of the reasons for adopting this Community Sustainability Element as part of the
City’s Comprehensive Plan is to provide a positive conceptual framework for coordinating and
assessing the community’s progress toward sustainability. For that to happen, there must be a tie
between long-range comprehensive planning, mid-range strategic planning, and short-term
implementation decisions embodied in budgeting and operations.
There are a number of important principles to keep in mind when linking these sets of plans and
actions.
Engage and educate. Connect with the community and provide ways to access and share
information and ideas.
Integrate. Be holistic in approach, recognizing linkages and seeking to expand problem-
solving and solutions beyond traditional or institutional boundaries.
Innovate. Go beyond conventional approaches; be experimental.
Be adaptive. Be flexible, discarding or modifying approaches that don’t work and shifting
resources where or when needed. Rigid rules will not always work or result in the most
effective solution.
Be strategic. Target and prioritize actions to be effective and gain community support and
momentum. Acknowledge limitations, but be creative and persistent in seeking solutions.
Be a leader. Lead by example, and by forming partnerships that effect decision-making while
providing ways to address differing views and perspectives.
Measure and assess. Set benchmarks to monitor progress and provide feedback to policy
development and decision-making.
A key to being successful in applying these principles to sustainability will be the need to apply an
adaptive management approach to planning and resource allocation. A passive approach can
emphasize predictive modeling and feedback, with program adjustments made as more information is
learned. A more active approach will emphasize experimentation – actively trying different ideas or
strategies and evaluating which produces the best results. Important for both approaches is (a) basing
plans and programs on multi-scenario uncertainty and feedback, and (b) integrating risk into the
analysis. Either of these approaches can be used, as appropriate in the situation or problem being
addressed.
Implementation Goal A. Develop benchmarks and indicators that will provide for measurement
of progress toward established sustainability goals.
A.1 Benchmarks and indicators should be both understandable and obtainable so that
they can be easily explained and used.
Packet Page 131 of 342
Community Sustainability 33
A.2 Establish both short- and long-term benchmarks and indicators to tie long-term
success to interim actions and decisions.
A.3 Develop a reporting mechanism and assessment process so that information can be
gathered and made available to the relevant decision process at the appropriate
time.
Implementation Goal B. Provide mechanisms to link long-range, strategic, and short-term
planning and decision-making in making progress toward community sustainability.
B.1 Schedule planning and budgeting decision processes to form a logical and linked
progression so that each process builds on and informs related decisions.
B.2 Long-range, strategic, and short-term planning should acknowledge the other time
frames, decisions, and resources involved. For example, short-term budgetary and
regulatory decisions should be designed to effect strategic and long-term goals.

Implementation Actions and Performance Measures. Implementation actions are steps that are
intended to be taken within a specified timeframe to address high priority sustainability goals.
Performance measures are specific, meaningful, and easily obtainable items that can be reported
on an annual basis. These are intended to help assess progress toward achieving the goals and
policy direction of this element. The actions and measures identified here are specifically called
out as being important, but are not intended to be the only actions or measures that may be used
by the City.
Action 1: By 2017, update the City’s Hazard Mitigation Plan to reference emerging risks
and hazards related to climate change, such as rising sea levels and ocean
acidification.
Performance Measure 1: Annually report on energy usage within the City, both by City
government and by the larger Edmonds community.

CONTINUED DISCUSSION OF COMPREHENSIVE PLAN SUSTAINABILITY ELEMENT
Mr. Chave referred the Board to the updated version of the Sustainability Element. He noted that, as discussed at the last
meeting, a new section that incorporates an action and performance measure was inserted at the end of the element. In
addition, recommended changes submitted by Board Member Stewart were inserted into the document and identified in red.
Board Member Stewart reported that she attended a recent meeting of the Mayors Climate Protection Committee, and asked
the members to review and comment on the current Sustainability Element. The comments she received were forwarded to
staff.
The Board reviewed the document as follows:
Background on Page 18. Board Member Robles observed that, currently, the term “sustainability’ is defined as
“development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their
own needs.” He questioned what is meant by the word “future.” He suggested the word opens the door to a very well-
known concept called Pareto Efficiency, which is a state of allocation of resources in which it is impossible to make any
one individual better off without making at least one individual worse off. He noted that a huge body of education is
dedicated to this concept. He suggested a definition of sustainability could include an account of those who win and
those who lose based on a decision the City makes. While he recognized it would be difficult, he felt the definition
should be adjusted to lend itself to more main stream analysis.
Board Member Stewart responded that the current definition is widely accepted throughout the world and refers to
environmental, social and economic sustainability. While Board Member Robles’ recommendation has merit, she
questioned if it would be appropriate to insert additional language at this point in time. Chair Cloutier suggested that the
concept would be more appropriately discussed when the Board talks about methods for implementing the goals and
policies contained in the Sustainability Element.
Board Member Robles commented that climate change is very relevant to global sustainability. Sustainability at the
micro level is also important. He questioned if changes are needed to address the City remaining sustainable if
transportation is cut off for an extended period of time in the future. Other potential concerns are whether there would
there be enough food and water to sustain citizens in an emergency and if it is possible to generate as much solar power
as the City would need?
Last paragraph on Page 18. Board Member Stewart advised that Barbara Tipton, a member of the Mayor’s Climate
Protection Committee, felt strongly that the Edmonds Marsh is a significant asset that should be specifically mentioned
in this paragraph. The Board Members agreed.
Sustainability Goal A on Page 19. Board Member Rubenkonig suggested that the words “in a sustainable way” in Item
A.1 should be removed from the first sentence. Chair Cloutier advised that using the term “sustainable” implies that the
City will consider outside things when maintaining the City’s character and charm. The Board agreed to leave this
paragraph as written.
Sustainability Goal F on Pages 21 and 22. Board Member Stewart advised that Barbara Tipton requested an additional
item should be added to Sustainability Goal F that “all citizens should be within walking distance of a park.” Chair
Cloutier explained that this would be more of a metric for measuring how well the City has implemented Sustainability
Goals F.2 and F.3 or the specific goals called out in the Parks, Recreation and Open Space (PROS) Plan. Mr. Chave
agreed that the Board could discuss this as a potential performance measure when reviewing the PROS Plan, which is a
separate element of the Comprehensive Plan. The Board agreed, particularly if it is already called out as a goal in the
PROS Plan.
Sustainability Goal D on Page 20 and Climate Change Goal E on Page 26. The Board discussed that perhaps
Sustainability Goal D could be expanded to place more emphasis on the need for energy-efficient development. Concern
was expressed that including the word “in city facilities” might unnecessarily limit the goal’s application. The Board
agreed that improving energy efficiency should be a citywide goal. Board Member Stewart pointed out that Ms. Tipton
Packet Page 134 of 342
APPROVED
Planning Board Minutes
September 10, 2014 Page 3
also commented on the need to make energy efficiency a citywide goal. Mr. Chave pointed out that Climate Change
Goal E calls for developing mitigation strategies that could be used by the both public and private sectors. He also noted
that the word “city” is not capitalized, which means it is intended to apply to all facilities and not just those owned and
operated by the City. The Board agreed not to eliminate the words “in city facilities.”
Climate Change Goal E on Page 26. While it is well known that multi-family housing is more energy efficient than
single-family housing, Board Member Rubenkonig noted that the fact is not specifically called out in the Sustainability
Element. Board Member Stewart pointed out that the issue is specifically called out in the Climate Protection Plan.
Chair Cloutier agreed that, typically, multi-family housing is more energy efficient, but there are techniques for making
single-family housing energy efficient, as well. Mr. Chave referred to Climate Change Goal E.3, which talks about
developing programs and incentives that encourage existing land use, buildings and infrastructure to reduce their carbon
footprint. While this is a general statement, the idea is that the entire City is included in the effort.
Vice Chair Tibbott asked if it would be appropriate to include multi-family residential development as a specific
example of energy efficient development. Mr. Chave cautioned against singling out a specific use, as it could be
interpreted that energy efficiency is less important for other types of uses. Mr. Chave explained that, if the goal is to
reduce green house gases, the best approach would be to start with the highest users and work backwards. Available data
indicates that the treatment plant is the City’s highest user, followed by grocery stores and large commercial
establishments. Chair Cloutier pointed out that data on energy use is available on the Mayor’s Climate Protection
Committee’s website. Vice Chair Tibbott asked how much solar energy is produced in the City, and Chair Cloutier said
it is next to zero at this time.
Vice Chair Tibbott said it is not clear to him that the language in Climate Change Goal E applies to buildings. Mr.
Chave pointed out that Goal E.3 specifically calls out existing land use, buildings and infrastructure. To make it clearer,
he suggested that the first sentence could be changed by adding “and increase energy efficiency.” The Board agreed that
would be appropriate.
Vice Chair Tibbott noted that the goal does not point to any specific type of use. Again, Mr. Chave said it is intended to
apply to all types of land uses, buildings and infrastructure, and adding examples may limit its application. Chair
Cloutier reminded the Board that the goal is to reduce the carbon footprint and not to change the land use. He cautioned
that broad statements are more appropriate for the goals and policies in the Comprehensive Plan, which will be
implemented by the more specific Development Code regulations.
Vice Chair Tibbott said it is not clear that the term “development” applies to buildings. Mr. Chave explained that the
term was carefully chosen and applies to the arrangement of buildings, pedestrian connections, bikeways and other
things associated with the development such as retaining trees, clearing and grading, mitigation programs, reducing
footprint and incentives for buildings that are energy efficient.
Climate Change Goal D on Page 20. Board Member Rubenkonig said she would still like “energy efficiency” to be
addressed as a Sustainability Goal rather than a Climate Action Goal. The Board agreed that the second sentence should
be changed to specifically call out the need to improve energy efficiency.
Climate Change Goal B on Pages 24 and 25. Board Member Stewart suggested that the language no longer reference
the 1990 and 2012 pollution level numbers. Mr. Chave explained that this references an historic policy that the City
agreed to when joining the United States Mayors’ Climate Protection Committee. It is not the City’s current policy, and
that is why it is not stated as a goal. What the City has actually agreed to do is called out in Climate Change Goal B.
Climate Change Goal E on Page 26. Board Member Stewart suggested that the words “and potential sea level rise,”
should be added at the end of Climate Change Goal E. Mr. Chave pointed out that sea level rise is just one of the affects
of climate change. Specifically calling it out could imply that it is the most important issue. Board Member Stewart
commented that sea level rise must be addressed when planning for development and Best Available Science must be
considered. The City should at least acknowledge sea level rise somewhere in the Comprehensive Plan. Mr. Chave
noted that Page 34 of the Sustainability Element calls for the City updating its Hazard Mitigation Plan by 2017 to
reference emerging risks and hazards related to climate change. This update will include a discussion about sea level
Packet Page 135 of 342
APPROVED
Planning Board Minutes
September 10, 2014 Page 4
rise. Chair Cloutier added that sea level rise is called out in the broader term, “mitigating the affects of climate change.”
The question is whether it should be called out as a particular concern for which the City is vulnerable. He cautioned
that calling it out specifically could muddy the issue because people will narrow the policy to the example provided.
Again, he reminded the Board that the Comprehensive Plan is not code; it is intended to be a high-level vision. He
cautioned against adding details that will constrain future decisions. All code changes must be balanced against the
sustainability element. If they keep it narrow, the results will be narrow. If it is kept broad, it will not be constrained to
what the City thinks is important today. He urged the Board to keep the Sustainability Element as broad as possible.
As an example, Mr. Chave said he views ocean acidification as a far more threatening problem than sea level rise. The
impacts of this will be much more drastic in the near term before you ever see significant impacts from sea level rise. If
the City focuses on just one specific thing, it may lose site of the other issues that might be more important. Board
Member Stewart also suggested the green house gases and ocean acidification should be called out specifically in the
Sustainability Element, but she is not sure the best place to do it. The Board agreed not to add “and potential sea level
rise” to Climate Change Goal E.
Board Member Robles cautioned that Edmonds cannot stop all sea level rise, but it can look at Edmonds as a sustainable
unit for which sea level rise is a significant threat. He noted that there are documents that address both local and global
sustainability, and he suggested it might be appropriate to add a new element that addresses sustainability for just
Edmonds, as he discussed earlier.
Action 1 on Page 34. Chair Cloutier commented that no matter how much the City does to address rising sea levels and
ocean acidification, they will not impact the overall situation. However, they can prepare to mitigate the impacts. The
City must have a plan in place to adapt to all the impacts of climate change. The Board agreed that rising sea levels is a
hazard that will impact Edmonds and it should be addressed in the Hazard Mitigation Plan. They agreed to change
Action 1 to read, “By 2017, update the City’s Hazard Mitigation Plan to reference emerging risks and hazards related to
climate change such as rising sea levels and ocean acidification.
Paragraph 3 on Page 27. Board Member Stewart referred to her proposed language and clarified that the 2nd sentence
should read, “The percentage of young people who are overweight has more than doubled in the last twenty years, and
childhood obesity is a potential precursor to obesity in adults.” While obesity is a current health problem, Board
Member Ellis cautioned against calling it out as a specific example. He suggested that some of Board Member Stewart’s
proposed language should be eliminated and the paragraph should read, “Transportation systems, development patterns,
community design and planning decisions can have profound effects on health and well being. All citizens should be
able to live, work and play in environments that facilitate physical activity and offer healthy choices.” This would allow
the City to address all health problems, including obesity, aging population, safe pedestrian access, etc.
Mr. Chave cautioned that the danger is that health concerns tend to go in cycles and various issues rise to the top. Board
Member Stewart pointed out that obesity is a national trend that results in a number of other health issues such as
diabetes and heart disease. The City should recognize this as an issue that needs to be addressed for the long term.
Consistent with keeping the Sustainability Element broader, the Board agreed to incorporate only the last two sentences
of Board Member Stewart’s recommended language.
Community Health Goal B on Page 28. Board Member Rubenkonig said she supports the first sentence in Item B.6,
which talks about increasing access to health-promoting foods and beverages in the community. However, she
questioned what incentives are in place to have locally-sourced produce available in the City. Chair Cloutier pointed out
that encouraging locally-sourced food is a possible solution for implementing Community Health Goal B. Again, he
reminded the Board that the goals in the Comprehensive Plan, including the Sustainability Element, are intended to guide
the City’s future. They are intended to call out the problems, but not offer solutions. They are used as a guide when
considering future Development Code amendments, which must be consistent with the Comprehensive Plan.
Environmental Quality Goal A on Page 30. Board Member Stewart asked that the word “natural” be changed to
“native” in Item A.1. She explained that native vegetation supports native wildlife and natural vegetation does not
necessary do that. Mr. Chave commented that the term “native” has a very different meaning than “natural,” especially
Packet Page 136 of 342
APPROVED
Planning Board Minutes
September 10, 2014 Page 5
as it relates to climate change. Board Member Stewart pointed out that certain species of native plants should be present
in riparian areas along streams. Native plants have been bread in the community and support wildlife. If the City simply
requires natural vegetation rather than native vegetation, the ecosystem could be altered. Mr. Chave agreed but pointed
out that the concern is addressed in Item A.2, which calls for the retention and enhancement of wildlife habitat areas.
Introducing native species might not accomplish this goal. He said he views “natural” as a much broader term that will
allow the City to implement appropriate development codes to protect and enhance wildlife habitat areas. The Board
agreed not to change “natural” to “native.”
Board Member Ellis asked how the City would determine which species are native and which are not. Board Member
Stewart answered that there are lists available to make this determination. Non-native species are usually invasive and
compete against the native species. Board Member Ellis stressed the importance of educating property owners about the
difference between non-native and native species. Mr. Chave said most people know the obvious invasive, non-native
species, and there are lists available from various agencies.
Environmental Quality Goal A on Page 30. Board Member Stewart advised that Ms. Tipton suggested that Item A.1
be amended to include private residential properties as potential wildlife habitat in addition to urban forests, wetlands,
etc. Board Member Stewart pointed out that wildlife habitat is not just in public spaces, but in private yards, too. The
City’s goal should be to increase wildlife habitat. Once again, Mr. Chave pointed out that the word “city” is not
capitalized, which means it is intended to apply to all wildlife habitat areas and not just those owned by the City. He
advised that urban forests include more private lands than public lands, and the goal is intended to be very broad to
encompass all wildlife habitat areas. The Board agreed that the goal was broad enough as written.
DISCUSSION OF COMPREHENSIVE PLAN HOUSING ELEMENT UPDATE
Mr. Chave referred to the current Housing Element of the Comprehensive Plan (Exhibit 1) and invited the Board members to
share their comments and questions in preparation for their September 24th review and discussion on the draft Housing
Element update. He reported that the Executive Director of the Housing Coalition of Snohomish County and Everett made a
presentation (Exhibit 2) to the City Council on August 26th about countywide housing needs, especially related to
affordability and the region’s growing population. The presentation also included important countywide data related to the
need for affordable housing.
Mr. Chave also reported that the City is partnering with other cities and Snohomish County in the Alliance for Housing
Affordability (AHA), a group formed from Snohomish County Tomorrow. Through this effort, an affordable housing profile
has been created for each of the participating jurisdictions. A copy of the draft Edmonds Affordable Housing Profile was
attached to the Staff Report as Exhibit 3. The final profile should be very similar and ready for the Board’s September 24th
meeting, and Kristina Gallant from the AHA will be present at that time to walk the Board through the details. He explained
that the profile contains extensive data on housing in Edmonds and looks at housing affordability mostly from the perspective
of the entire metropolitan region, including Seattle. On the other hand, Exhibit 2 from the Housing Coalition looks at
housing affordability based just on the Snohomish County area, not including Seattle. Both documents will be useful when
updating the Housing Element.
Board Member Stewart asked when the Board would discuss potential performance measures and action items. Mr. Chave
said this topic would be part of the Board’s September 24th discussion. He encouraged Board Members to forward their
thoughts and additional comments to him via email.
REVIEW OF EXTENDED AGENDA
Mr. Chave reviewed that in addition to the Board’s continued discussion of the Comprehensive Plan Housing Element, the
September 24th meeting would include a public hearing on proposed updates to the Capital Facilities and Capital
Improvement Plans for 2015-2020. The Development Services Director would also provide an overview of the development
projects and activities that are currently taking place in the City, as well as data and statistics on how the City is doing in
terms of valuation of construction. He said he anticipates the Board will need one more opportunity to discuss the
Comprehensive Plan Housing Element on October 8th. The October 8th agenda would also include a discussion on the
Packet Page 137 of 342
the screen during Planning Board meetings, and providing hyperlinks to other related sections of the code will save a
significant amount of time. Mr. Chave said that staff primarily uses the digital version of the code now.
Vice Chair Tibbott asked staff to share how having an up -to-date digital code that is available to the public on line will help
with code enforcement. Ms. Hope said she does not know if there is any evidence or case study to indicate improved
enforcement. However, a lot of people use the digital code. In addition to the digital code, another on-line feature the
Development Services Department utilizes a lot is the request line where people can email questions and staff responds
electronically. Mr. Chave added that since the City’s website was updated, there have been a lot more internet-generated
questions. If people need more information, they can be routed to the appropriate department. Mr. Chave suggested that
improving code enforcement many not be the right way to think about the update. It is more about information flow. To the
extent people can better access the codes on line and they are easier to follow and understand, people will become less
frustrated. However, there will always be a cadre of people who resist permitting and that will not likely change.
Board Member Rubenkonig suggested that some of the proposed amendments could be presented to the Planning Board via a
consent agenda. If the Board wants more information, they could be pulled from the consent agenda for additional
discussion. Chair Cloutier said the Planning Board has not traditionally utilized a consent agenda. Amendments are typically
presented to the Board in groups. Some of the items will require extensive discussion, and some will not. However, the
Board will conduct a public hearing and make a recommendation on the entire package of amendments.
The Board indicated support for the list of priorities and the process outlined by staff.
OVERVIEW OF COMPREHENSIVE PLAN SUSTAINABILITY ELEMENT
Mr. Chave referred the Board to the existing Sustainability Element, which was attached to the Staff Report. He advised that
a recent analysis of the element by staff, using a checklist from the State, did not reveal the need to make any changes in
order to be consistent with the Growth Management Act (GMA) or other state laws. In addition, this element does not
contain any data that needs to be replaced with newer data. However, the Board could discuss minor adjustments to the
element, particularly adding a “performance measure” and one or more time-based “action items” as a special section to the
element. He cautioned that it will be important to be fairly choosey about the action items because they will inform the
agenda for the next few years, as some will require a significant amount of work.
Chair Cloutier recalled that over the past year, the Board has reviewed a number of proposals related to the shoreline (i.e.
Shoreline Master Program and Harbor Square Master Plan). This included land use discussions for properties that could
potentially be in a threatened zone. He suggested it would be appropriate to update the Sustainability Element to clarify
where the lines of concern should be related to sea level rise. Mr. Chave responded that some of this risk assessment could
be covered in the City’s emergency plan, which does not currently address the evolving climate and issues related to rising
sea level. He said it might be appropriate to update the emergency plan to make sure that information related to storm events
and severity are adequately addressed.
Board Member Ellis pointed out that climate change and rising sea levels have statewide implications. He asked what the
State has done to identify and address these issues. Mr. Chave answered that a number of reports have been done at various
times. The issue is particularly difficult given that each location within the state has unique characteristics and a one-size-
fits-all approach will not adequately address all situations. A significant amount of data has come out over the past few
years. While it continues to evolve, it can provide a good idea of what could happen.
Board Member Ellis asked if a particular state agency has been tasked with addressing this issue on a statewide basis. Mr.
Chave answered that there have been a variety of projects sponsored by the University of Washington, the Washington State
Department of Ecology (DOE), etc. Each group issues its own report at different points in time, and information in one
report can become outdated by a later report. The efforts are beginning to coalesce, and the reports tend to focus on the two
most likely scenarios for comparison purposes. This allows the work to be fairly consistent to provide benchmarks that will
help local jurisdictions address the issue appropriately.
Mr. Chave summarized that it is important to update the Sustainability Element to acknowledge what has been done to date,
such as adoption of the Strategic Action Plan. Although staff does not foresee any significant changes in the goals and
Packet Page 138 of 342
policies discussed in the element, it would be appropriate to identify at least one “performance measure,” as well as specific
action items that will begin to set priorities.
Board Member Stewart suggested that the Mayors Climate Action Committee be invited to review and comment on the
Sustainability Element at their meeting in early September. She plans to attend the committee meeting and could report their
findings to the Board.
Board Member Stewart reported that she has participated in a series of courses, some of which relate to the topic of sea level
rise. There is data available specific to each segment of the shoreline, which reflects the range of potential sea level rise. It
boils down to an overlay that illustrates the buildings and lands that could be impacted by rising sea levels. Mr. Chave said
there is also an interactive website that provides similar information. Chair Cloutier summarized that the idea is to
implement a range of scenarios to build policy. It was noted that various groups are working on this effort.
Board Member Lovell said that although there are several inferences and/or references to the concept of economic
sustainability for the City in the Sustainability Element, he felt the language could be strengthened. He expressed concern
about the direction that has been taken over the past five or six year, both politically and in the public arena, regarding what it
takes to run a successful City. The City Council has struggled for a number of years to achieve a budget that recognizes what
everyone believes to be the stature of the City related to conditions, and there is an information and awareness gap between
the greater citizenry of the City about increased taxes. Sooner or later the City Council and citizens must recognize that taxes
will have to go up if they want the City to stay the way it is. Mr. Chave suggested that economic sustainability would be
better addressed in the Economic Development Element of the Comprehensive Plan, which has not been updated for a
number of years. While updating the Economic Development Element has been identified as a City priority, he is not sure of
the timeline.
Board Member Stewart said she would like to propose some changes to the language in the Sustainability Element, most of
which relate to the “Environmental” and “Community Health” sections. In particularly, she would like to integrate language
from the National Physical Activity Plan related to transportation, land use and community design. In addition, she would
like to incorporate elements of the Washington State Nutrition and Physical Activity Plan. She said she will also propose
other changes that she felt would strengthen the goals called out in both the “Environmental” and “Community Health”
sections. Chair Cloutier encouraged Board Member Stewart to submit her proposed changes to staff so they could become
part of the Board’s next discussion regarding the Sustainability Element.
Board Member Lovell pointed out that numerous statements in the Sustainability Element use the word “shall,” which means
“should” or “maybe.” Mr. Chave explained that the Comprehensive Plan is intended to be aspirational, and the Development
Code lays out all of the requirements. It is very difficult to put directive “shalls” in a planning document when there are
many different ways of implementing goals.
Board Member Lovell reminded the Board of staff’s recommendation that at least one “performance measure” should be
identified for each element of the Comprehensive Plan. Mr. Chave indicated that staff would have some recommendations
for the Board to consider as part of their next discussion. Chair Cloutier referred to the Performance Measure Matrix the
Board previously prepared and reminded them that there is already a performance measure in place to track green house
gases. It is simple to do, and the Mayor’s Climate Action Committee already started informally tracking citywide electricity,
natural gas, and water consumption.
REVIEW OF EXTENDED AGENDA
Chair Cloutier reviewed that the Board’s September 10th agenda will include a discussion of the Housing Element and
continued discussion of the Sustainability Element of the Comprehensive Plan. The September 24th agenda will include a
presentation on the status of development projects and activities, continued discussion of the Housing Element, and a public
hearing on proposed updates to the Capital Facilities Plan and Capital Improvement Program Elements of the Comprehensive
Plan.

Continued Discussion of Comprehensive Plan Update
Recommendation
Ask questions, discuss. No action is required.
Previous Council Action
The City Council discussed the 2014 and 2015 Comprehensive Plan update process at its July 1
meeting and provided consensus for staff to move forward with preparing a minor update for 2014
and a more significant update in 2015. At its July 16 meeting, the City Council approved a budget
amendment to allow the hiring of a temporary part-time planner to assist with the 2015 update.
Narrative
The state's Growth Management Act requires most cities and counties to have comprehensive plans
and development regulations and to implement them. Every few years, each jurisdiction must
review and, as needed, update its comprehensive plan and development regulations so that the plans
and regulations meet current state laws, as well as local needs. For cities in our region, the next due
date for a major review and update is June 30, 2015.
In the spring of 2014, the Development Services Department conducted a review of the Edmonds
Comprehensive Plan, using a checklist created by the State Department of Commerce. The review
indicated that the Plan's goals and policies were generally consistent with the Growth Management
Act, but that: (a) a significant data update was needed, affecting almost every chapter; (b) the
population and jobs forecast needed to reflect a new 20-year period (through 2035, rather than
through 2025); and (c) some aspects of the Plan could benefit from new information since the last
major update.
An overview of the above information, along with options for the update process and a preliminary
schedule, were presented to the Planning Board on June 25. On July 1, the City Council reviewed
the information and provided general consensus that staff should move forward with a basic update

of the Comprehensive Plan, aiming to complete it by the State's mid-2015 deadline. Council
member Johnson asked for the discussion to be continued to another meeting.
Currently, the Development Services Department is working on preliminary aspects of the update,
including to obtain assistance from a part-time planner. The 2015 update is assumed to include:
- Review and draft revision of each chapter, as needed, for:
- Data updates
- Relevant new information
- References to regional guidance, such as from Snohomish County Tomorrow or Puget Sound
Regional Council
- Minor clean-up.
In addition:
- Some referenced plans, such as older drainage plans, may be proposed for elimination from the
Comprehensive Plan.
- Several performance measures may be proposed as an addition to track how key goals are being
met.
- One or two "action steps" may be proposed for some chapters (such as the Sustainability Element)
to help implement the adopted objectives.
Public process for the update will include:
- Creation of a webpage with update information to be added on a regular basis (Note: creation of
the webpage is likely to occur after some technology upgrades are completed for the City's
network.)
- Public meetings of the Planning Board
- Public meetings of the City Council
- One open house
- Press releases
- Feature in the City newsletter
- Presentations to interested organizations
- Notices to nearby jurisdictions, tribes, and state agencies
- Public hearing by the Planning Board
- Public hearing by the City Council.
The preliminary schedule for the 2015 Update, which was previously shown at the City Council's
July 1 meeting, has been slightly modified --for example, consolidating the timeframe for reviewing
the Streetscape and Street Tree plans. See Attachment 1.
A slideshow has been prepared to include the above information, along with some other details,
such as which elements are required and which are optional under the Growth Management Act.

asked how a repeat of the Compass building would be avoided where the commercial space was vacant
and property owner was satisfied with his profits on the residential. Mr. Chave responded parking is an
interesting subject; parking standards are minimums. There is not much room for overflow in Westgate so
there is a strong incentive for development to provide the necessary parking. Before providing funding,
banks want to know the parking need and the parking provided. Historically parking standards have
largely been a blunt instrument because they do not acknowledge different markets for individual
properties or stores. For example, he noted the PCC parking lot is well used most of the day, whereas the
previous Albertsons parking lot was vacant much of the day.
Mr. Chave explained if parking is established by use, it inhibits different businesses from moving in/out
of a space. For example, at one time there were different parking standards downtown for offices versus
restaurant versus retail; when one use moved out it was difficult for a different use to provide additional
parking. At one time there was an ability to pay into an in-lieu-of parking fund which ultimately provided
no parking. A blended rate makes the most sense for a mixed use development; the exact parking ratios
will depend on the development mix.
Councilmember Petso commented on historic undesirable experiences that resulted in the existing
requirements downtown such as a commercial height requirement to ensure the commercial space was
usable, a percentage of usable retail space on the ground floor and requiring retail at the street level. She
noted there were no requirements for first floor height or commercial percentages on the first floor. Mr.
Chave advised the commercial building types determine what is allowed on each floor; for example, the
ground floor of a commercial building must be commercial. The frontage types address the arrangement
of floors to the street front. Sufficient height has been provided, 35 feet for 3 stories and 45 feet for 4
stories, to prevent a subterranean ground floor. Councilmember Petso asked whether there was enough
height for a restaurant use or would a builder construct 8 foot commercial ceiling heights and 10-12 foot
residential ceiling heights. Mr. Chave answered the number of floors paired with the height prevent that.
The Council could impose a ground floor height for retail.
Councilmember Petso displayed a photograph of a house adjacent to the Compass mixed use building.
She asked whether the slope heights in the Westgate area have been carefully measured to avoid having
the residential lot completely wrapped by a building. Mr. Chave displayed the map of height at the top of
slopes prepared using the City’s lidar information. He was confident the situation Councilmember Petso
described would not happen. Councilmember Petso asked whether height variances would be allowed.
Mr. Chave answered it is essentially impossible to justify a height variance.

• Possible addition of performance measure and action steps.
Councilmember Fraley-Monillas asked about a Master Plan for Highway 99. Ms. Hope answered that is
not proposed for this Comprehensive Plan update. She plans to propose development of a Highway 99
Master Plan as soon as the Comprehensive Plan update is complete.
Council President Buckshnis referred to the old Stevens Hospital Master Plan and asked whether
Swedish-Edmonds would be required to provide a new Master Plan or will it be incorporated into a
Highway 99 Master Plan. Ms. Hope proposed removing the old Stevens Hospital Master Plan.

Information
Subject Title
Presentation and Discussion of the Proposed 2015-2020 Capital Facilities Plan/Capital Improvement
Program.
Recommendation
Schedule a public hearing for both documents.
Previous Council Action
On September 23, 2014, Council reviewed the process to approve the Capital Facilities Plan and Capital
Improvement Program.
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 2015-2020 CFP is attached as Exhibit 1. The CFP has three project sections comprised of
General, Transportation and Stormwater. The proposed 2015-2020 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 and a public hearing was held at the Planning Board meeting on

ESTIMATED PROJECT COST: $1,115,000
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). (ROADWAY ROJECT PRIORITY in
2009 Transportation Plan: #8).
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: The intersection LOS must meet MUTCD traffic signal warrants and be approved
by WSDOT since 196th St. SW is a State Route (SR524). No funding is currently allocated to
this project (pending grant funding).

PROJECT NAME: Edmonds Marsh/Shellabarger
Cr/Willow Cr – Daylighting
ESTIMATED PROJECT COST: $7,233,000
Edmonds Marsh as seen from the viewing platform. Previously restored section of Willow Creek. Source:
www.unocaledmonds.info/clean-up/gallery.php
PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Build on the feasibility study completed in 2013 that assessed the feasibility
of day lighting the Willow Creek channel. The final project may include 23 acres of revegetation,
construct new tide gate to allow better connectivity to the Puget Sound, removal of sediment, 1,100
linear ft of new creek channel lined with an impermeable membrane. Funds will be used for study and
construction but exact breakdown cannot be assessed at this time.
PROJECT BENEFIT/ RATIONALE: The daylight of willow creek will help reverse the negative impacts
to Willow Creek and Edmonds Marsh that occurred when Willow Creek was piped. It will also help
eliminate the sedimentation of the marsh and the transition to freshwater species and provide habitat for
salmonids, including rearing of juvenile Chinook.

PROJECT NAME: Perrinville Creek High Flow
Reduction/Management Project
ESTIMATED PROJECT COST: $2,270,000
Perrinville Creek Channel illustrating the channel incision that
will be addressed by restoration.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION: A flow reduction study began in 2013 that will develop alternatives
to implement in the basin. Projects are expected to begin the design and/or construction
phases in 2014. It is expected that this project will be implemented with the City of Lynnwood
(half the Perrinville basin is in Lynnwood) and Snohomish County (owner of the South County
Park). Projects will likely be a combination of detention, infiltration, and stream bank
stabilization. A $188,722 grant from the Department of Ecology is contributing funds to the
2013-2014 Study.
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. Before any habitat improvements can be implemented, the flows must be
controlled or these improvements will be washed away.

PROJECT NAME: City Park Revitalization
ESTIMATED PROJECT COST: $1,530,000
PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Revitalize City Park play area with new play equipment and addition
of a spray park amenity to be used in the summer. Spray parks have become very popular in
many communities as replacements for wading pools that are no longer acceptable to increased
health department regulations. These installations create no standing water and therefore require
little maintenance and no lifeguard costs. Staff will seek voluntary donations for construction
costs.
PROJECT BENEFIT/ RATIONALE: This project combines two play areas and the completion of
the master plan from 1992. This is very competitive for State grant funding, as it will be using a
repurposing water system. This will be a much valued revitalization and addition to the City’s
oldest and most cherished park.

PROJECT NAME: City Park Revitalization
ESTIMATED PROJECT COST: $1,335,000
PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Revitalize City Park play area with new play equipment and addition
of a spray park amenity to be used in the summer. Spray parks have become very popular in

the master plan from 1992. This is very competitive for State grant funding, as it will be using a
repurposing water system. This will be a much valued revitalization and addition to the City’s
oldest and most cherished park.

ANNOUNCEMENT OF AGENDA
The agenda was accepted as presented.
AUDIENCE COMMENTS
No one in the audience indicated a desire to address the Board during this portion of the meeting.
DEVELOPMENT SERVICES DIRECTOR REPORT TO PLANNING BOARD
Ms. Hope referred the Board to the written Director’s Report. In addition to the items outlined on the report, she announced
that the public has invited to a free program that asks the question, “What Does a Vibrant City of the Future Look Like?”
The event is being sponsored by Community Transit, Puget Sound Regional Council, and 8-80 Cities and will take place on
September 25th at the Lynnwood Convention Center starting at 6:30 p.m. Gil Penalosa, Executive Director of the Canadian
non-profit organization 8-80 Cities will speak about how to create vibrant cities and healthy communities for everyone. She
encouraged Board Member to attend.
Board Member Lovell requested a status report on the Shoreline Master Program (SMP). He recalled that the Council is
currently considering a modification to the Board’s recommendation that would increase the setback area for development to
150 feet and the buffer area to 50 feet. Ms. Hope emphasized that the City Council has not taken final action on the SMP yet,
but the majority appear to be leaning towards a greater setback. Board Member Lovell advised that the Port of Edmonds has
Packet Page 289 of 342
DRAFT
Planning Board Minutes
September 24, 2014 Page 2
gone on record in opposition to the increased setback and indicated they would likely take legal action if the greater setbacks
are adopted. Ms. Hope said staff indicated support for the 50-foot buffer, as recommended by the Planning Board and
supported by Best Available Science. Board Member Stewart clarified that the City Council is proposing the increased
setback requirement on a 2-year interim basis. At the end of the two years, the setback could be renegotiated.
Chair Cloutier noted that the City Council is also considering significant modifications to the Board’s recommendation
related to Highway 99 zoning. Ms. Hope acknowledged that the Council conducted a public hearing and voted to amend the
recommendation, but they will not take formal action until a revised ordinance is presented to them at a future meeting.
PUBLIC HEARING ON THE 2015-2020 CAPITAL FACILITIES PLAN (CFP) AND CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT
PROGRAM (CIP) (FILE NUMBER AMD20150006
Mr. English explained that the CFP and CIP are different documents and have different purposes. The CIP is used as a
budgeting tool and includes both capital and maintenance projects. The CFP is mandated by the Growth Management Act
and is intended to identify longer-term capital needs (not maintenance) to implement the City’s level of service standards and
growth projections. The CFP must be consistent with the other elements of the Comprehensive Plan, and it can only be
amended once a year. He provided a graph to illustrate how the two plans overlap. He advised that the CFP is comprised of
three sections: general, transportation and stormwater. The CIP has two sections related to general and parks projects, and
each project is organized by the City’s financial fund numbers. He announced that, this year, the 125 funds were combined
to include both transportation and parks projects to be consistent with the City’s budget.
Mr. English noted that a description of each project was included in the draft CIP. He reviewed some of the projects
identified in the CIP and CFP, as well as the progress that was made over the past year as follows:
The 5 Corners Roundabout Project is nearing completion. This significant project is intended to improve the level of
service (LOS) of the intersection and improve air quality by moving traffic more efficiently through the intersection.
The City Council approved a $1.6 million budget for a Street Preservation Program in 2014. This has enabled staff to
overlay two streets and apply chip seal applications to three streets. Staff is proposing a budget of $1.56 million for the
Street Preservation Program in 2015.
The 228th Street Corridor Improvement Project will start in 2015. As proposed, 228th Street Southwest will be extended
across the unopened right-of-way to 76th Avenue West, and the intersections at Highway 99 and 76th Avenue West will
be signalized. 228th Street Southwest will be overlaid from 80th Place West to 2,000 feet east of 72nd Avenue West, and
76th Avenue West will be overlaid from 228th Street Southwest to Highway 99.
Chair Cloutier questioned if the proposed improvements would extend all the way to the border of Mountlake Terrace.
Mr. English answered affirmatively and noted that Mountlake Terrace is also planning improvements for its portion of
228th Street Southwest.
Intersection improvements at 76th Avenue West and 212th Street Southwest are currently under design and the City is in
the process of acquiring additional right-of-way. Construction is planned to start in 2016.
76th Avenue West will be restriped between 220th Street Southwest and Olympic View Drive. The section that is
currently four lanes will be reduced to three lanes, with a bike lane. Pre-design work for this project will start in 2015,
with construction in 2016.
Design money has been identified to start the process of looking at the potential of creating a quiet zone or a trackside
warning system at the Dayton and Main Street railroad crossings. A consultant contract was recently approved, and a
kick-off meeting is scheduled for next week.
The Sunset Avenue Walkway Project has received a lot of discussion at the Council level in recent months. The Council
recently approved a temporary alignment for the walkway as a trail and these improvements will likely be finished
within the next week or two.

A sidewalk will be installed on 15th Street between SR-104 and 8th Avenue utilizing grant funding from the Safe Routes
To School Program. The project should be completed by November of 2014.
Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) curb ramps will be installed on 3rd Avenue, and the project will be advertised
this week.
A sidewalk will be installed on the north side of 238th Street Southwest from 100th Avenue West to 104th Avenue West.
Stormwater improvements will also be included with this project, which will be funded via a Safe Routes To School
Grant and Utilities Fund 422.
A walkway will be constructed on the south side of 236th Street Southwest from SR-104 to Madrona Elementary School.
Sharrows will also be added along this stretch. This project is also being funded through the Safe Routes to School
Program.
10,000 feet of water main was replaced in 2014, and two pressure reducing valves were replaced. The City just
completed 2,000 feet of street overlay where water mains were previously replaced. In 2015, they plan to replace 7,000
feet of water main, as well as some pressure reducing valves.
The 4th Avenue Stormwater Project is in progress and is intended to address flooding issues in the downtown caused by
heavy rains. This project should be completed within the next month.
The vactor waste handling facility was completed this year, and they are working to replace the filtration pipes.
The City will build on the study completed in 2013 that assessed the feasibility of daylighting the Willow Creek channel
as part the Edmonds Marsh Project. Daylighting the creek will help reverse the negative impacts to Willow Creek and
the Edmond Marsh that occurred when Willow Creek was piped.
A lift station and other new infrastructure will be installed at Dayton Street and SR-104 to improve drainage and reduce
flooding at the intersection.
A flow reduction study has been completed for the Perrinville Creek High Flow Reduction/Management Project, and the
project is currently at the pre-design phase.
Sewer main on Railroad Avenue was replaced in July, and more work is scheduled in 2015. By the end of 2014, the City
will have replaced over 6,000 feet of sewer main in several locations. In 2015, staff is proposing 1,500 feet of cured-in-
place pipe application, 4,000 feet of sewer main replacement, and improvements at the Wastewater Treatment Plan.
Board Member Lovell noted that Meadowdale Beach Road is in poor condition, and it does not make sense to install a
sidewalk before the roadway has been repaved. Mr. English pointed out that repaving Meadowdale Beach Road is identified
as a project in the Roadway Preservation Program. If funding is available, it will move forward in 2015. He cautioned that
the street may need more than an overlay to address the problems.
Vice Chair Tibbott asked Mr. English to describe the differences between the cured-in-place pipe application and replacing
sewer mains. Mr. English said that the cured-in-place application is a trenchless technology that the City has used on a few
projects in the last several years. If a pipeline is cracked but has not lost its grade, you can apply a new interior coating. This
can be done by accessing the manholes within the pipe without having to excavate or cut the street. Staff has spent a
significant amount of time this year collecting data on the existing condition of the pipes to identify those in which the cured-
in-place option would be appropriate. Vice Chair Tibbott asked if the cured-in-place application would address root
problems. Mr. English answered that the application is a good way to take care of roots. Depending on the age of the pipes,
they are most likely to connect at the joints, which provide a pathway for roots. The cured-in-place application would be a
continuous inner lining for the pipe so the potential for roots to find gaps or cracks goes away once it is installed.

Vice Chair Tibbott asked Mr. English to describe how the Dayton Street Lift Station would work. Mr. English explained that
there are a lot of different inputs into the stormwater issues in this location such as the Edmonds Marsh, Shellebarger Creek,
and stormwater runoff. In this particular case, when the tide elevation is high, the water cannot drain into the Sound and
flooding occurs at the intersection of Dayton Street and SR-104. The marsh does not drain as well, either. The proposed
project will re-establish the flow through the marsh, and install a lift station that will mechanically lift the water during high
tide so it can be discharged to Puget Sound.
Board Member Stewart referred to the Sunset Avenue Walkway Project and asked about the definition for “multi-use
pathways.” Mr. English answered that there is not really a definition for multi-use pathways. The concept is based more on
width. Ten feet is the standard width for a multi-use pathway, but some are as narrow as 8 feet or as wide as 12 feet. The
goal is to have walkers and bikers use the route together. Board Member Stewart asked if it would be possible to allow some
wheeled access on the pathway, while bikes are routed to the sharrows on the roadway. Mr. English agreed that would be
possible. He noted that while the sharrows for north bound bikers are not in place, bikers going south can use the trail that is
striped.
Board Member Stewart asked if the City would consider green infrastructure as a method of stormwater improvement such as
rain gardens, bioswales, and pervious pavement. Mr. English said they are considering a few green options for stormwater.
For example, the Shellebarger Creek High Flow Reduction Study recommends building bio-retention facilities within the
residential areas. These projects are about 90% designed, and the City plans to apply for grants to build them in 2015. There
is also an infiltration facility at Sea View Park to take some of the high flow off Perrinville Creek. Two previously
mentioned projects utilize infiltration methods versus collection and putting the water into the Sound. Board Member
Stewart suggested that these efforts should be noted in the plans.
Board Member Rubenkonig said she enjoyed the project descriptions. She particularly found the history to be helpful in
understanding how each project originated. She would also like each project description to reference the plan that supports it
and explained why it was proposed. She noted that some of the descriptions provide details about the size of the projects
(i.e. length, square footage, acreage, etc.) She found this helpful to make a connection between a project’s size and its
anticipated cost. She suggested that this information should be provided for each of the project descriptions. Mr. English
agreed that more information could be provided in the project descriptions related to size, but the City does not yet have this
detailed information for some of the projects in the CIP.
Board Member Rubenkonig pointed out that walkway projects are referred to as both sidewalks and walkways. She asked if
there is a reason to make this distinction. Mr. English agreed that the terms could be more consistent. The City secured grant
funding for three sidewalk projects from the Safe Routes to School Program. His guess is that throughout the application
process, the projects were probably identified as walkways as opposed to sidewalks.
Ms. Hite advised that approximately $120,000 is set aside each year in the CIP for park maintenance items. She explained
that although it is not common for cities to use Real Estate Excise Tax (REET) funds strictly for parks operations and
maintenance, the Revised Code of Washington (RCW) allows it. However, this provision will sunset at the end of 2016.
Unless it is extended for an additional time period, the City will have to be creative in 2017 to fill the funding gap.
Ms. Hite provided a brief overview of the accomplishments in 2014 related to parks, as well as projects anticipated for 2015:
A new play area was installed at City Park. However, because of issues with drainage and the existing water table, the
spray pad had to be redesigned. Permits for the project were submitted earlier in the week, and the goal is to obtain the
permits and get the project out to bid before the end of the year so construction can start in February or March. It is
anticipated the spray pad will open by Memorial Day 2015. She briefly described some of the features of the new play
area and spray pad.
The Dayton Street Plaza Project has been on the City’s plan for the past few years, and demolition work started this
month. She provided a schematic design of the project for the Board’s information.
Some historic preservation plaques were installed on the 4th Avenue Cultural Corridor, as well as other locations
throughout the downtown. In addition, the Arts Commission has been working on a temporary installation on 4th
Packet Page 292 of 342
DRAFT
Planning Board Minutes
September 24, 2014 Page 5
Avenue to bring visibility to the corridor. They are holding public meetings regarding the project at this time. However,
the City does not currently have funding to create permanent features along the corridor.
The City has set aside $655,000 in the CIP and the School District has agreed to contribute $500,000 for redevelopment
of the Woodway High School Athletic Field. In 2013, the City received a $750,000 state appropriation from local
representatives, as well as a capital grant of $2.5 million from Verdant Health Care. They now have a total of $4.2
million for the project. In addition to a sports field for soccer, softball, lacrosse and ultimate Frisbee, the play area will
be upgraded and a new walking path will be provided to connect to the oval track around the football field. The project
is currently in the design phase. The district will construct the project and the City will maintain it and have operational
control of the fields. The redeveloped facility is set to open in September of 2015.
The Yost Pool boiler was replaced in 2014. In addition, new plaster was applied to the bottom of the pool, and a new hot
water tank was installed. They just recently discovered that the spa has a leak that will cost about $100,000 to fix, and
this money was built into the 2015 budget.
The Parks, Recreation and Cultural Services Department is working in partnership with the Stormwater Division on the
Marina Beach Master Plan, which will include daylighting of Willow Creek. Burlington Northern Santa Fe installed a
culvert that can be used for this purpose, and they are currently considering two different alignment options, both of
which will have impacts to Marina Beach Park and/or the dog park. Staff will work with the design team and the public
to come up with the best solution, and they are hoping the work can be completed by next September.
The Parks, Recreation and Open Space Plan and Community Cultural Plan were updated this year.
The Anderson Field Amphitheater and Meadowdale Club House Playfield will be replaced in 2015.
The City is working in partnership with the City of Lynnwood and the Edmonds School District to further develop and
maintain the Meadowdale Playfields. They are looking at installing turf on the fields so they can be used year round.
The School District has allotted $1 million for the project, and the Cities of Edmonds and Lynnwood have agreed to
contribute, as well. They have applied for a grant to help fund the project, and they are hoping to have enough money
put together to start within the next three years.
The City has an aggressive goal to acquire waterfront property and has set aside about $900,000 from a Conservations
Future Grant and REET dollars for this purpose. The City has been negotiating with a property owner, and she is
optimistic that an agreement can be reached.
Rehabilitation of the Fishing Pier has been on the City’s radar since 2009. The facility is located on property owned by
the Port of Edmonds, but the facility is owned by the Washington State Department of Fish and Wildlife (WSDFW).
The City maintains the facility. While the pier looks nice on the outside and is safe, it was constructed 35 years ago and
the salt water environment has caused significant deterioration. WSDFW has offered to give the pier to the City, but the
City would like the rehabilitation work to be completed before ownership is transferred. The City is working in
partnership with the WSDFW to obtain the needed funds, which is estimated to cost about $1.5 million. About $200,000
has been allocated to the project, and the WSDFW has submitted a grant request to the Washington State Recreation and
Conservation Office (RCO) for $1.3 million. The grant scored well, and they are hoping it will be funded so the project
can move forward in 2015.
The City has been working with the Edmonds School District to acquire the Civic Center Playfield. An appraiser was
hired to come up with an appraisal that is acceptable to both parties, and third-party appraiser was also hired to confirm
the findings. The City submitted a grant request for $1 million to the RCO, and the project scored within the range of
projects that were funded last year. However, if there are cuts in the RCO’s budget, the grant may not be funded. If the
City is able to complete the acquisition in 2015, some money will be set aside in 2016 to do a master plan.

Board Member Lovell asked if the City would continue to maintain the Civic Center Playfield in its current state until such
time as it is acquired and redeveloped. Ms. Hite answered that short-term goal is to acquire the property and maintain it as is
until a master plan has been completed and the park is redeveloped.
Board Member Lovell asked if the senior center was identified on the CFP as a placeholder or if the City will dedicate
funding for the project. Ms. Hite said this project will require a partnership with other entities. The City will support the
project as much as possible, but it will not be a City project.
Vice Chair Tibbott asked if the City will partner with the Edmonds School District to redevelop the Civic Center Playfield.
Ms. Hite answered that the City is now pursuing a complete acquisition of the site. The district has indicated it does not have
a developer. Ms. Hite agreed that is possible, but the current lease, which runs through 2020, gives the City the first right to
purchase.
Vice Chair Tibbott asked if the new sports field at the Old Woodway High School would be turf. Ms. Hite answered
affirmatively. She explained that this is something that is desperately needed in the area. Because the City does not have any
turf fields at this time, the season is limited to just over four months each year. The City will continue to maintain its grass
fields, but having an amenity that allows year-round play is important to the parks system.
Vice Chair Tibbott noted that some parks in the City are underutilized. When it comes to thinking of bigger projects like an
aquatics center or acquiring property, he asked if the City has considered selling some of the underutilized park land to
provide funding for new parks and/or needed improvements. Ms. Hite answered that the City currently has a good balance of
neighborhood, community and regional parks, and there are still some deficiencies near Highway 99. They have not
considered the option of selling park land because they do not feel there are surplus parks in the system. All of the parks are
utilized, and even those that just provide green space are desirable to the community.
Board Member Robles referred to Ms. Hite’s report that the City obtained the services of a third-party appraiser to study the
Civic Center Playfield. He asked if the City also uses third-party consultants to conduct condition assessments and feasibility
studies or is the work done in house. Ms. Hite answered that this work is contracted out, and the various grant guidelines
have very rigid rules for assessments and appraisals for parkland acquisition.
Board Member Stewart noted that rest room repairs are identified for Brackett’s Landing. She asked if the City has
considered turning the restrooms over to a concessionaire. Ms. Hite said the City has a program for encouraging
concessionaires in parks, but none have located at Brackett’s Landing to date. Every January, the City sends out a Request
for Proposals, inviting vendors who might want to operate a concession stand in a City-owned park. In total, concessions
brought in $10,000 last year to help with parks. She expressed her belief that the program is a win-win. It provides
additional amenities in parks, as well as funds for park improvements.
Board Member Stewart asked if the City has considered meters in parking areas that serve City parks. Ms. Hite said this
option has been discussed, but it has not received a lot of support from the City Council. If the Board is interested in
pursuing the option, she can facilitate the discussion.
Board Member Stewart noted that the project description for the Sunset Walkway Project indicates that a sidewalk will be
provided on the west side. She asked if this is the same project identified in the CFP. Ms. Hite answered affirmatively,
noting that the $200,000 identified for the project in 2018 will come from the Parks Fund. However, most of the funding for
the project will come from grants and the City’s street improvement fund.
Board Member Stewart referred to the Fishing Pier and Restroom Project and noted that no funding has been set aside for the
Beach Ranger Station, which is old and very small. Ms. Hite agreed that there has been no discussion about replacing the
station, and it was not included as a project in the PROS Plan. However, staff could explore this option further as directed by
the Board.
Board Member Stewart referred to Page 48 of the draft CIP, which talks about Miscelleneous Unpaved Trail/Bike Path
Improvements. He asked if the City’s website provides a map showing where the bike paths are located within parks. Ms.
Packet Page 294 of 342
DRAFT
Planning Board Minutes
September 24, 2014 Page 7
Hite said there are not a lot of bicycle trails through parks, but the City’s goal is to provide exterior connections. These are
not currently listed on the City’s website, but they could be added.
Board Member Stewart observed that, although the draft CIP identifies $1.4 million for waterfront acquisition, the allocations
would be spread out over a seven year period. She suggested the City look for opportunities to partner with non-profits and
apply for grants to obtain additional funding. When land becomes available, the City must move quickly. Developers have
ready cash and the City doesn’t, and that can result in missed opportunities. Ms. Hite agreed that the City needs to create
new funding sources so they are ready to move forward when opportunities come up. The goal is to continue to add money
to the fund each year, but there are also competing priorities for the available park dollars. She emphasized that waterfront
acquisition is identified as a high priority in the PROS Plan, and maintaining a separate fund for this purpose should also be a
priority.
Once again, Board Member Rubenkonig asked that each project description reference the plan/plans that support it and
explain why it was proposed. This allows the community to have a clear understanding of why the project is identified as a
priority for funding. She also asked that the descriptions provide details about the size of the project.
Board Member Rubenkonig asked if the 4th Avenue arts walk, which starts at Main Street, extends all the way to 3rd Avenue.
Ms. Hite answered that it ends at the Performing Arts Center.
Ms. Hite said that in addition to the projects identified in the CFP, members of the Economic Development Commission have
requested that the City study the option of installing a restroom in the downtown area. She suggested that the concept could
be identified in the CFP as a potential project for the City Council’s future consideration. She acknowledged that there is no
money available for a restroom right now, but including it on the CFP allows the City to explore funding opportunities. She
noted that the community has also indicated support for a public restroom in the downtown. The Board indicated support
for the concept, as well.
Mr. English reviewed the schedule for moving the CIP and CFP forward to the City Council for final review and approval.
He noted that the plans were introduced to the City Council on September 23rd. Both documents, along with the Board’s
recommendation, will be presented to the City Council for a study session on October 14th. From that point, the City Council
will conduct a public hearing and take final action. Once approved, the CFP will be incorporated into the Comprehensive
Plan.
Mr. English thanked the Board for providing comments. The documents are large and he appreciates the Board’s thorough
review and thoughtful comments.
Board Member Rubenkonig pointed out that impact fees were not identified in either plan as a potential funding source for
transportation and walkway improvements. Mr. English said this revenue stream is identified in the CIP under Fund 112. He
explained that the City has both transportation and park impact fee programs, and funds are collected when development
occurs within the City. However, it is important to understand that the money can only be used for certain projects. For
example, transportation impact fee dollars can only be used to address concurrency or LOS.
Board Member Rubenkonig asked if some of the funding for the 5 Corners Roundabout Project will be used to study how
well the roundabout is working to determine if it meets its LOS expectation. Mr. English explained that projects of this
magnitude that are funded with federal dollars take quite some time to close out. The money identified in 2015 will be used
for this purpose.
Chair Cloutier opened the public hearing. As there was no one in the audience, the hearing was closed.
BOARD MEMBER LOVELL MOVED THAT THE BOARD FORWARD THE 2015 – 2020 CAPITAL
IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM AND CAPITAL FACILITIES PLAN TO THE CITY COUNCIL FOR REVIEW
AND SUBSEQUENT ADOPTION, AS WRITTEN, WITH THE RECOMMENDATION THAT THE CITY
COUNCIL TAKE UP THE MATTER OF A POTENTIAL PUBLIC RESTROOM IN THE DOWNTOWN. VICE

Board Member Rubenkonig said she supports the motion, but questioned if it would be appropriate to also include the
changes she requested earlier regarding the project descriptions. Mr. English indicated that staff would add additional
information to the project descriptions wherever possible, recognizing that some of the details are not yet available. The
Board agreed that the issue did not need to be addressed in the motion.
THE MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY.
CONTINUED DISCUSSION OF COMPREHENSIVE PLAN HOUSING ELEMENT UPDATE
Ms. Hope said the purpose of tonight’s discussion is to talk more about the 2015 Comprehensive Plan update, and
specifically the Housing Element. She recalled that, at the Board’s last meeting, staff reported that the City is partnering with
other cities and Snohomish County in the Alliance for Housing Affordability (AHA), a group formed from Snohomish
County Tomorrow. Through this effort, an affordable housing profile has been created for each of the participating
jurisdictions. She introduced Kristina Gallant, Analyst, Alliance for Housing Affordability, who was present to walk the
Board through the findings of the Edmonds’ Affordable Housing Profile.
Kristina Gallant, Analyst, Alliance for Housing Affordability, provided a brief overview of the AHA, which consists of 13
cities in Snohomish County, Snohomish County, and the Housing Authority of Snohomish County. She reminded the Board
that there is a Growth Management Act (GMA) mandate for cities to plan for housing to accommodate all segments of the
population. The purpose of the AHA is to allow participating cities to share resources and get the help they need in a cost-
effective way. The AHA was formed in November of 2013, and since that time she has been working to assess existing
conditions and prepare profiles for each of the participating cities.
Ms. Gallant explained that, when talking about affordable housing, people typically think about heavily subsidized housing,
which is an important element, but not everything. If housing is affordable, but not appropriate for the community, it does
not work. It is important to address the different needs and preferences of each community such as adequacy of safety,
proximity to transportation, jobs, and affordability.
Ms. Gallant provided an overview of the Edmonds Housing Profile, particularly emphasizing the following key elements:
There are currently 39,950 residents living in the City, and Edmonds is projected to accommodate nearly 5,000 new
residents by 2035. This is a dramatic change over the stable population levels the City has seen over the past 20
years. The increase would require 2,790 additional housing units, which is near the City’s estimated capacity of
2,646 units.
The 2012 population includes 17,396 households with an average household size of 2.3 people compared to 2.6 for
the County. The average family size in Edmonds is 2.8 compared to 3.12 for the County.
Housing in Edmonds is mostly comprised of single-family homes, but most growth will need to be accommodated
in multi-family development. About 31% of Edmonds residents and 33% of County residents currently live in
rented homes, and the proportion of homeowners remained relatively constant between 2000 and 2010, increasing
slightly from 68% to 69%. About 36% of Edmonds population lives in multi-family homes compared with 31%
across the County.
The City’s median income ($73,072) is relative high compared to other cities in the region, and home values are
general higher, as well.
A significant number of the homes in Edmonds were built between 1950 and 1959 compared to the County overall.
Currently, 38% of Edmonds households are estimated to be cost burdened, which means they spend more than 30%
of their monthly income on rent or home ownership costs.
According to 2013 Dupre and Scott data, Edmonds rental housing market is generally affordable to households
earning at least 80% Average Median Income (AMI). Households earning between 50% and 80% AMI will find the
majority of homes smaller than five bedrooms affordable, as well.
A limited supply of small units is affordable to those earning between 30 and 50% AMI, but market rents are not
affordable to extremely low-income households.
Packet Page 296 of 342

Planning Board Minutes
September 24, 2014 Page 9
A lack of affordable rental housing for extremely low and very low-income households is very common. Some kind
of financial assistance is typically required in order to operate a property and keep rents low enough in today’s
housing market.
Assistance can be ongoing to make up the difference between 30% of tenants’ income and market rents. Other
options include capital funding that reduces the overall project costs (considered workforce housing), making it
possible to keep rent levels down.
Edmonds currently has 303 units of subsidized housing with a range of rental assistance sources. It also has 201
units of workforce housing distributed across three properties. These units received some form of one-time subsidy
(i.e. low-income tax credit, grants, etc.) in exchange for rent restrictions, but they do not involve rental assistance
and rents are not tailored to individual household incomes. In addition, the City has 16 units of transitional housing.
However, with 5,322 households earning less than 50% AMI, there is still a need to increase the supply.
In 2012, the median sale price for a single-family home in Edmonds was $339,975. This would require an annual
income of at least $75,796, which is just above the City’s median income ($73,072).
Affordability for 2013 cannot be calculated at this time, but average assessed values suggest that home prices are
rising as the housing market continues to recover following the recession, and affordability is retreating.
Edmonds has the third highest average assessed 2014 home values in Snohomish County ($351,100), which
represents a 10.7% increase over 2013.
Edmonds has one of the highest percentages of elderly residents among Snohomish County cities; 25% of the
households have individuals 65 years or older. In addition to having generally lower incomes, seniors will require
different types of housing and services if they desire to age in place.
Ms. Gallant advised that the City has already taken a number of steps to promote affordable housing, and there is a range of
options it can consider to respond to the continuing needs of the community. In addition to promoting, adjusting and
providing incentives for housing policies where appropriate, the City should continue to monitor and evaluate its policies to
make sure there are no unnecessary regulatory barriers to affordable housing. The Housing Profile is meant to be a resource
for the City as it moves through its Comprehensive Plan update. The AHA’s goal is to continue to work with participating
cities from a technical advisory standpoint, researching what is needed to help establish goals for housing, identifying
potential methods for implementation, and identifying funding sources that are available to support infrastructure related to
housing.
Board Member Robles asked what can be done to promote house-sharing opportunities in Edmonds. He suggested that this
opportunity is not always about making money; it is about people trying to hang on to their homes. Ms. Gallant replied that
many cities have ordinances in place that allow accessory dwelling units, but they vary significantly. It is important for cities
to review their provisions for Accessory Dwelling Units (ADU) to make sure they are easy to understand and that the
requirements and processes are not so onerous as to be cost prohibitive. The AHA’s goal is to work with participating cities
to develop better policies and make sure there are no unnecessary barriers. At the same time, they must be cognizant to
balance the new policies with the other needs of the City.
Board Member Rubenkonig pointed out that ADUs were not addressed in the AHA’s report. Ms. Gallant agreed that data
related to accessory dwelling units was not included in her report, and she would definitely like to research this opportunity
more.
Board Member Stewart complimented Ms. Gallant for a great report and a good start for metrics. However, she agreed with
Board Member Rubenkonig that, at some point, the City must include ADUs in the metrics. She also suggested the City
consider expanding its ADU provisions as a type of housing option to help the City meet its growth targets. She expressed
concern that the numbers provided in the report is based on the number of bedrooms and size is not factored into the
variables. Ms. Gallant agreed that the data is not as detailed as it could be, but it is intended to start the conversation.
Vice Chair Tibbott asked if the AHA has studied whether or not it is less costly to develop high-density residential versus
low-density residential units. He said it would be helpful to have information about the average cost of producing the various
types of affordable housing compared to the outcome. Ms. Gallant said she would like to study per unit development costs at
some point in the future. In general, the housing costs are reflected through the rent and home sales, and there is a lot of
debate about whether high density produces more affordable units. Increasing the supply over the long term is what needs to
happen. When there is a choke point in the supply, housing prices will rise.

September 24, 2014 Page 10
Vice Chair Tibbott recalled the Board’s previous discussion point to the fact that just building small units does not mean they
will be affordable. He noted that using lower cost finishes is one approach that can reduce the cost of the units, but he
questioned if it would be possible to produce enough of these units in Edmonds to make a difference. He asked if any
thought has been given to lowering development costs or allowing different types of development so developers can produce
more affordable units. For example, the City could consider reduced permit fees or tax incentives. Ms. Gallant said the
AHA is interested in researching this issue.
Ms. Hope explained that the next step is for staff to review the current Housing Element and come back to the Board with a
revised version that incorporates the new information contained in the Housing Profile and other census data. She explained
that one aspect of updating each Comprehensive Plan element is to identify a performance measure that will be meaningful,
yet easy for the City to replicate with data annually. In addition, an action (implementation) step may be identified to help
achieve progress on certain issues. Staff is recommending that the performance measure for the Housing Element be a set
number of residential units permitted each year. The exact number could be filled in later in the year when data is ready.
This information would enable the City track its progress in allowing housing that will accommodate expected growth. Staff
is also proposing that the action item for the Housing Element be to develop a strategy by 2019 for increasing the supply of
affordable housing and meeting diverse housing needs. She explained that there are many different ways to address
affordability and several tools can be utilized to encourage affordable housing while looking at the overall housing needs.
The proposed performance measure can get at the overall supply of housing units in Edmonds, but it is more difficult to
measure affordability.
Chair Cloutier expressed his belief that counting the number of bedrooms is the appropriate approach since the goal is to
provide “beds for the heads.” The City could easily collect data for this metric. However, the affordability aspect is more
market driven than the City can control and it would be very difficult to measure. Board Member Robles suggested that one
option would be to offer a micro-tax incentive to encourage developers to report correctly.
Board Member Rubenkonig observed that the Growth Management Act deals with affordable housing as more population
based. However, population translates into housing, and that is why it is a good proxy for population. You have to have
housing for people to live in. The Growth Management does not define affordable housing, and it does not provide specific
policies on how to encourage more affordable housing.
Board Member Robles asked if the City can track ADUs. Ms. Hope answered affirmatively, as long as they have a valid
permit. However, it would be very difficult to track rooms for rent.
Board Member Stewart asked if a three-bedroom unit would be considered three units. Ms. Hope answered that it would
only count as one unit. Board Member Stewart pointed out that household size has decreased in Edmonds in recent years, but
the size of the units has increased.
Board Member Lovell recalled that the City has fairly stringent building restrictions with respect to ADUs. If they are
serious about meeting the Growth Management Act (GMA) targets and accommodating an increased population, this issue
will have to be addressed. He noted that the Board has been talking about the growth targets and opportunities for affordable
housing for a number of years, but the City Council has a history of not taking action to accommodate mixed-use
development with higher densities. While it is fine for the Board to discuss the issue again and put forth plans, he is not
convinced anything will change in the near future unless the makeup of the City Council changes dramatically.
Mr. Chave clarified that ADUs are not considered multi-family apartments or second dwellings. The definition remains
single-family. Extended family members and/or parents could live in a permitted ADU, as long as all the occupants in both
units are related. It gets more complicated when unrelated people live in the units. The definition of "family" says that up to
five unrelated people can live on a single-family property. For example, a family of four could rent to a single person or a
family of three could rent to two people. In addition, ADUs must be attached to the main unit, and there are size limitations.
There has been a steady uptick of ADUs in the City, particularly involving large, older homes. He noted that no permit
would be required to rent a room to someone. The key distinction is whether or not there are separate living units.
Packet Page 298 of 342

Planning Board Minutes
September 24, 2014 Page 11
Ms. Hope added that the City has made the choice not to count ADUs as separate housing units. She suggested this is a
lesser issue compared to the policies that guide the use. Mr. Chave explained that if ADUs are counted as separate units,
requirements such as impact fees would come into plan. Chair Cloutier suggested that ADUs could be counted differently for
the metrics versus the code.
The Board expressed general support for the proposed Housing Element performance measure and action step. However,
they expressed a desire to forward with developing a strategy for increasing the supply of affordable housing and meeting
diverse housing needs sooner than 2019 if resources are available.
Board Member Rubenkonig said she likes the term “housing options” rather than “lower-income housing.” She wants to
know that people can remain in the community of Edmonds at different stages of their lives. Although sometimes they can
afford larger houses, they need smaller units.
Board Member Stewart expressed concern that the older homes in Edmonds are being torn down and redeveloped into units
that are three times more costly than the prior home. She would like the City to offer incentives to property owners to retain
their existing homes. The City must offer a variety of housing options to serve the citizens. Ms. Hope agreed and said the
issue would be addressed as part of the strategy.
Board Member Lovell referred to an article in THE SEATTLE TIMES titled, “Builders Say Land in Short Supply.” This
article applies directly to the Board’s current discussion. Until cities find ways to accommodate more multi-family housing,
the demand will remain high in the future, and the prices will continue to increase. Right now, the City does not have a great
track record for accommodating this kind of development. The City is already built out, and the only way to accommodate
more people is to allow more density.
PRESENTATION ON DEVELOPMENT PROJECTS AND ACTIVITIES
Ms. Hope and Mr. Chave made a brief presentation on development projects and activities. Ms. Hope noted that the same
presentation was made to the City Council on September 23rd. The purpose of the presentation is to recreate the story of
everything that has happened related to development in the City over the past several years, particularly highlighting the
present activity. She advised that the Development Services Department is comprised of the Engineering Division, the
Building Division and the Planning Division. Its goal is to provide assistance to people interested in improving or developing
their property via discussions, data, handouts, permitting and inspections. She reported that she has received number
compliments on the quality of service that staff provides. While not everyone is always happy, staff tries hard to be
courteous, respectful and helpful. Staff members work in different ways to serve the community. For example:
Field inspections are performed by building inspectors, engineering inspectors and planning staff. Not counting site
visits, more than 6,000 inspections have been performed over the last year.
Staff members meet together in teams to coordinate on different projects and activities.
Staff also meets with applicants and developers to provide pre-application assistance for development projects that
are being planned.
Ms. Hope advised that the Planning Division is responsible for a number of different types of permits, including short plats,
variances, and other permits related to planning and land-use codes. A number of different planning permits were approved
over the past seven months. She provided a graph to illustrate the number of permits and revenue generated from January
through August in 2001 through 2014. She noted that the data reflects the economic climate over the last several years.
There as a big jump in development permits in 2006 through 2008, but permitting dropped off quickly after that. As the
economy improves, the City is once again seeing an increase in the number of permits.
Ms. Hope said the Building Division is responsible for certain types of permits, as well, some of which are reviewed by the
Planning and Engineering Divisions, as well. These projects added $38,000 to the City of Edmonds in terms of values and
buildings. It is anticipated that upcoming key projects will double that number in just a few months. Mr. Chave noted that
Swedish Edmonds Hospital’s project was not factored into those numbers yet, and it should add $28,000 in value.

Ms. Hope reported that the City issued significantly more solar panel permits in 2014 compared to 2012 and 2013, and most
of those permits were applied for on line. Mr. Chave advised that the City’s Building Official has been working with other
cities, including Seattle, Bellevue and Ellensburg, on a program to encourage solar installations using grant funding from the
State Department of Commerce. The program has been implemented in a few cities as a pilot to figure out how to streamline
and reduce the costs of solar permitting. A few incentive programs were rolled out recently in Edmonds. He summarized
that it is through a combination of programs that the City is seeing a significant increase in the number of solar permits. This
speaks directly to the work they have done to improve the process and provide more information. The City will continue to
work hard to encourage solar in the community, and he anticipates the numbers will continue to increase.
Ms. Hope reported that for the period between September 1, 2013 and August 31, 2104, the Engineering Division issued 591
engineering permits, for total permit fees of $93,285.44. They also performed 1094 inspections, for total inspection fees of
$124,815.82. In addition, they completed an estimated 1,200 reviews of plans.
Ms. Hope provided a map identifying the location of key development projects in Edmonds. Mr. Chave explained that the
Development Services Department currently has a total of 544 active issued building permits. These building permits are
typically issued early in the year and take time to progress through. There is still a tremendous amount of work to be done on
most of them. Mr. Chave specifically noted the following:
There are currently 52 active new single-family residence permits. This is a significant increase, and one
particularly large project is a 27-lot subdivision in the southwest part of the City that is starting to develop.
Swedish Edmonds Hospital recently completed its three-story parking garage. This was an $8.4 million project with
over 108,000 square feet of space. They are currently working on an expansion that will add a 94,000 square foot,
state-of-the-art facility valued at about $28 million. This project was not reflected in the numbers provided earlier.
Clearing and excavating work is currently taking place for a new mixed-use building in the downtown that will
include a somewhat down-sized post office. The project will provide 94,256 square feet of space, with 43
residential units, the post office, and retail space. The project is valued at $7.2 million.
The Community Health Clinic is a new 24,750 facility that houses a medical and dental clinic. The project was
completed in July of 2014 and is valued at $2.6 million.
The Salish Crossing Project will be a complete remodel of the “old Safeway site” into five new tenant spaces and a
museum within the existing building. Parking lot and pedestrian improvements are also proposed as part of the
project.
The Jacobsen’s Marine Project will create a new 10,120 square foot marine service building valued at $810,000 on
Port of Edmonds property. This will be a big deal in terms of retail sales, as the company is a significant seller of
boats and marine supplies.
Prestige Care is developing a new 48,782 square foot skilled nursing facility on 76th Avenue West. The project is
valued at $6.9 million. The new building will replace the existing facility.
Excavation work is going on now for the 5th Avenue Animal Hospital, which will be a 10,562 square foot veterinary
clinic that is valued at $891,000. The new building will help fill the gap between the strong retail uses on the south
end of 5th Avenue and the downtown retail area.
The City is transitioning to new technology, particularly on-line permit applications and digital permit reviews.
Chair Cloutier thanked Ms. Holt and Mr. Chave for the report, which he found to be enlightening and helped him understand
the big projects that are occurring in the City.
REVIEW OF EXTENDED AGENDA
The Board did not review their extended agenda.
PLANNING BOARD CHAIR COMMENTS
Chair Cloutier thanked the Board Members for enduring a long meeting. There was a lot on their plate and the issues are
important. He also thanked Vice Chair Tibbott for presenting the Planning Board’s quarterly report to the City Council.

PLANNING BOARD MEMBER COMMENTS
Board Member Rubenkonig said she enjoyed being able to download the meeting packet. Mr. Chave explained that he will
work with the City Clerk to learn how to in bed page numbers into the documents so they are easier for the Board to use.
Board Member Stewart referred to the two links to videos that were forwarded to Board Members by Ms. Hope. The first
video is general about the value of comprehensive plans and important issues to consider when updating them. The second
video is called “Planning Roles and Citizen Participation.” She said she reviewed both videos, and she encouraged the other
Board Members, as well as City Council Members, to do the same. She particularly recommended the second video, which
shows some striking parallels to not only the Planning Board’s role, but how they interact with the City Council.
Board Member Stewart reminded the Board of the tour of the marsh and Shoreline that is scheduled for October 4th from
10:00 a.m. to 12:00 noon. The tour will be led by Keeley O’Connell and a representative from the Tribes. Participants
should meet in front of the Harbor Square Athletic Club. She explained that the tour is part of her citizen project called
“Students Saving Salmon.” In addition to the students, members of the Planning Board, City Council and Mayor’s Climate
Protection Committee are invited to attend.
Vice Chair Tibbott pointed out that if the City is expected to accommodate an additional 5,000 residents before 2035, this
equates to about 250 addition people per year. If this number is divided by the average household size of just over two, the
number of new units needed each year is 125. This year the City added just 33 new single-family residential homes and no
duplexes or multi-family units. Mr. Chave clarified that the post office project will provide an additional 43 multi-family
residential units for a total of about 76 new residential units. It is likely the number will grow before the end of the year. The
best report to look at will be the year-end report that captures all the projects that were completed in 2014. He suspects the
final number will be about 100, which is a good year for the City.
Vice Chair Tibbott provided a brief review of the quarterly report he presented to the City Council on behalf of the Board.
He reported that several City Council Members said they read the Board’s comments and recommendations and they
appreciated their work. One City Council Member was somewhat critical of the one meeting the Board held when there was
not a quorum of members, yet they reported information that was put together that evening. He didn’t go into the details
about the nature of the meeting, but the City Council Member expressed concern that it seemed like the Board was pushing
forward an agenda that neither the City Council nor the City staff was ready for. Mr. Chave clarified that there was some
confusion about the timeline. The City Council had actually talked about the Highway 99 stuff at their retreat before the
Board met with the Highway 99 Task Force. The Board’s discussion was a follow up to the points made by the City Council.
He did not feel the Board was out in front of the City Council in this situation.
Board Member Lovell asked if any progress has been made to fill the vacant Planning Board position. Mr. Chave answered
that Mayor Earling is in the process of interviewing four candidates.
ADJOURNMENT
The Board meeting was adjourned at 10:05 p.m.

Presentation and Discussion of Proposed Social Media Policy
Recommendation
Mayor and staff recommend that the proposed Social Media Usage Policy and supporting documents be
forwarded to a City Council Business Meeting for approval.
Previous Council Action
Narrative
Communication with and engagement of the public via a diverse array of methods (website, newsletter,
town halls, local media, social media, etc.) is vitally important to create and maintain an efficient,
effective and productive civic relationship between the city government and its citizens and stakeholders.
As a natural response to the pervasive use of social media, over the past few years municipalities have
added Facebook pages, Twitter feeds and YouTube videos to their Internet presence. A quick review
identified that the following nearby cities have Facebook pages: Lynnwood, Shoreline, Everett,
Mukilteo, Bellevue, Redmond and Renton, among others. In many cases the Police Departments of these
cities have their own, separate Facebook pages as well.
Media and public relations experts believe that the use of social media is an increasingly effective way
for municipalities to engage and involve the local community. Social media can provide real-time updates
regarding important community events and accomplishments, encourage dialogue and response, as well
as allow for rapid and pervasive propagation of the information via “liking,” “sharing” and reposting.
For these reasons, we propose to begin usage of Facebook, more general use of Twitter (Public Works
Department already uses Twitter occasionally), and potentially use of Flickr, YouTube, etc., for the
purpose of achieving greater public outreach, engagement and involvement.
In order to do so, however, it is important to put in place a social media usage policy to guide the use of
these media by staff, elected and appointed officials and the public.
Attached you will find a “Social Media Usage Policy” that is supplemented by “Social Media Use
Guidelines,” a “Social Media Style Guide” and “Social Media Usage Application” form.
The Social Media Usage Policy provides the basic framework of a policy for the use and implementation
Packet Page 302 of 342
of social media by staff, officials and the public. It lays out procedures for staff use and contribution to
social media, identifies parameters for appropriate and inappropriate content, and spells out requirements
for retention and production of archived information.
It should be noted that this Policy also includes a section regarding the Open Public Meetings Act
(OPMA) and its applicability to elected and appointed officials’ use of social media. Since use (be that
commenting or posting) by a quorum of any elected or appointed body would constitute a “meeting” as
defined by the OPMA, the Policy discourages commenting or posting on the City’s official social media
tools by elected or appointed officials. In this way not only is an inadvertent “meeting” avoided, but so too
are the associated, untenable complexities that would be involved in attempting to determine if a quorum
of officials were accessing the site at any one time.
The supporting documents mentioned above simply provide more detailed information regarding content,
links, and style. In addition, the Social Media Usage Application form is simply a one-time form to be
filled out and reviewed for each Department’s appointed Social Media Content Coordinator in order to
ensure that such Coordinators have been appropriately oriented to these guidelines and are competent to
contribute on behalf of their respective departments.

pated content; and (3) how the department will comply with retention and public

tent (content that has not been created anywhere else; i.e., only exists on the social media
site), but rather a secondary copy of information that has been posted either on the City web-

information, a comment or blog on social media in compliance with the Social Media Usage

CITY OF EDMONDS
SOCIAL MEDIA STYLE GUIDE
Introduction:
Social media have changed communications throughout the public and private sectors. Social media
markets are growing at an incredible pace. That’s why we need to use social media to reach out to our
audiences. Social media are dynamic – they are changing all the time, with new services, tools and
functionalities.
We approach social media very differently from traditional marketing. Social media allow us to create
real-time relationships with the people we serve in a very public environment. If we develop these
relationships correctly, our social media community network will support us in a variety of ways. Social
media are the best of word-of-mouth marketing and will allow us to develop a positive social reputation.
This Social Media Style Guide provides our management plan and strategy through the dos and don’ts of
social media marketing.
Facebook and Twitter are essential components of any social media marketing plan. To be successful,
we must maintain all of the social media sites we create. You must comply with these three rules of
thumb:
1. Post
2. Monitor
3. Reply
To make your social media ventures successful, here’s a more in-depth look into how you will need to
manage your City social media accounts:
Facebook
• Use all the components of your Facebook page. These include (and are always expanding): your
wall, events section, pictures.
Packet Page 312 of 342
City of Edmonds
Social Media Style Guide
Page 2 of 2
• Monitor each business day and update a few times per week.
• Reply to comments as needed or appropriate, but when doing so, without delay.
• Your content should generally be a replica of information you have posted or shared with the
public elsewhere (City’s website, articles, publications, etc.)
• Retain all posts on your site for the public record.
• If you have questions about a post or interaction with a user, contact the Public Information
Officer.
Twitter
• Give a brief description to tease the information to a link. Think of the brief description as an
advertisement or movie trailer of what we are about to see. Never just post a link without
teasing it.
• Understand the information you are sharing so you can summarize it creatively and to fit your
audience needs.
• Use appropriate letter case in sentences. Typing in all lower case does not gain character space.
Unless you are fighting for space, find a way to use proper grammar.
• Do not retweet someone else’s Tweet.
• Use hashtags (#) appropriately and sparingly. A hashtag is a keyword with a pound sign in front
of it that people can include in their Tweets. Hashtags make it easy to search for topics, but too
many in one tweet causes clutter.
• Be sure to engage in live Tweets at the events you have promoted via Tweets.
YouTube
• Due to the nature of this Social Media Tool, the City will operate only one YouTube account. If
you would like to know more about how you may be able to benefit from the use of this tool,
please contact the City’s Public Information Officer.

Subject Title
Fishing Pier Rehabilitation Design
Recommendation
Staff recommends that the item move to the consent agenda for the entire Council to approve at the
meeting on October 21, 2014.
Previous Council Action
On February 18, 2014, the Council approved the mayor to sign an interlocal agreement with the WA
Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW). The intent of this agreement is to provide up to $190,000 to
execute design and permitting services for a project to rehabilitate the Edmonds Fishing Pier.
Narrative
The Edmonds Fishing Pier, per an agreement made upon its construction in the late 1970s, has been
owned by the WDFW and operated by the City of Edmonds. During this time nothing comprehensive
has been undertaken to address the structural deterioration that would reasonably accrue to any
facility constructed directly in a marine environment.
Earlier this year, agreement was reached between the City and the WDFW to provide up to $190,000 to
fund design and permit services for a project whose ultimate intention was to bring the pier back up to
snuff. A copy of the signed grant contract is attached to this agenda item. The further goal of this project
is to ensure the pier will remain available as a valuable waterfront amenity for several decades to come.
In July of this year, the City released an RFQ for consultants to address its need for a firm to provide
design and permitting services for the Edmonds Fishing Pier Rehabilitation Project. As a result of the
evaluation of the statements of qualification received, three firms were chosen to be interviewed by a
team consisting of Carrie Hite, Rich Lindsay, and Jim Stevens. Of those three interviewed,
BergerABAM was selected as the best suited to prepare a proposal for services to the City for this work
The first step in this process of rehabilitation is the design and permitting work itself. The proposal for
these services is attached to the agenda and amounts to $128,600. As the construction work is
envisioned, this amounts to roughly 10% of the value of such a construction cost. Currently City staff
members are working to acquire the grant funding to perform this contract work, so the intention is that
the entire cost of the rehabilitation project, from design to completion, will be from grant awards.

Re: Fishing Pier Rehabilitation
Fee Proposal for Engineering Services
Dear Mr. Stevens:
BergerABAM Inc. is pleased to submit this proposal to the City of Edmonds to provide final
design and bid support services for rehabilitation of the fishing pier. We have based this
proposal on our knowledge of the facility, which includes our December 2006 and May 2014
reports and our meeting on 23 September 2014.
SCOPE OF WORK
We will develop contract documents for the fishing pier rehabilitation, with submittals at four
stages of design; 30 percent, 60 percent, 90 percent, and final. Our efforts will be based on items
identified in our May 2014 report titled “City of Edmonds Fishing Pier Cost Estimate Update”
(excluding navigation aids) and will include the following components.
Structural Repairs
We will develop plans of the pier and walkway decks and pile caps, and identify areas that
include deck panel flange repairs, deck panel web repairs, pile cap spall repairs, and distress at
drains for the fish cleaning stations. We have included one site visit by a two‐person team to
confirm measurements of the repair areas.
Repairs and Upgrades to Architectural Features
As discussed in our meeting on 23 September, a positive perception by the public of this
rehabilitation work is essential. Approximately 75 percent of the work is structure‐related and
essentially “out of sight”; what remains is work that has a direct daily impact on the public. Our
landscape architects will review site photographs, visit the site, and assess alternatives for
improving the facility’s appearance. This will be combined with work required to replace the
windbreak partitions, replace roofs on fish cleaning stations, repair and repaint windbreak
partitions, upgrade benches, and repair the handrails (including replacement of the top rail).

We have included one meeting with the City to review the alternatives developed. Please refer
to Attachment A, where we describe our approach to this portion of the work in more detail.
Utility Repairs – Water Line
We will include replacement of the water line that provides service to the fish cleaning stations.
The work will consider how to protect the line from impact by crab pots and similar items
lowered and raised from the deck into and out of the water.
Utility Repairs – Electrical
On the pier, our efforts will include replacement of, and adding bird spikes to, the pole lights;
repairs to concrete pole bases; replacing lights at the fish cleaning station; and minor demolition
of utilities that are no longer used. At the restroom, our efforts will include replacement of
existing heaters, adding head trace, and removing electrical equipment no longer in use.
Permitting Support
For this effort, we will develop permit figures for the permit application and a project
description of the proposed work. We have not included completing the JARPA application; we
assume that the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife will complete this effort.
Additional Scope Items
During our meeting on 23 September, we briefly discussed a question brought up during our
interview regarding possible degradation in the prestressed concrete piles supporting the
fishing pier. The piles were fabricated in 1977/1978, during which a local fabricator cured piles
at too high of a temperature, resulting in delayed‐ettringite formation—a reaction that is
delayed by th e high temperature and then restarts in the piles later when in service after
prolonged exposure to water. We did not observe that degradation in 2006 when we inspected
the piles underwater, but have included an optional one‐day dive inspection in our proposal to
check the piles for that distress.
Deliverables
Submittal at the four stages of design will consist of plans, technical specifications (special
provisions), and a construction cost estimate. Not all plans will be developed at the 30 percent
stage, and the special provisions will consist of a list of only those items we will develop. We
assume the City will develop the general provisions and requirements for the contract
documents.
We will also provide the City with a summary of the architectural alternatives and minutes
from our proposed meeting.

SCHEDULE
We propose to commence work within one week after receipt of the notice to proceed.
Assuming we start work by 1 November 2014, we would expect to have contract documents
ready by early to mid‐March 2015, assuming one‐week review periods by the City and the
Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife. Our milestones for submittals would be as
follows.
Meeting with the City to discuss architectural features – mid‐November 2014
30 Percent Contract Documents – mid‐December 2014
60 Percent Contract Documents – late January 2015
90 Percent Contract Documents – mid to late February 2015
Final Contract Documents – early to mid‐March 2015
FEE
We propose to perform this work on a time‐and‐materials basis using the rates defined in the
attached fee estimate worksheet. Our efforts will be as follows.
Project management, quality control (4 submittals) and bid period
support for all disciplines
$30,700
Structural and civil design and contract documents $54,600
Landscape architectural design and contract documents $19,600
Permitting support $6,300
Electrical design and contract documents $11,900
Mileage – meetings (6 total) $300
Day rate for inspection boat (2 days assumed) $300
Diving (optional, 1 day, all‐inclusive) $4,900
Total Fee: $128,600
We assume the basis for the contract will be a standard City of Edmonds Professional Services
Agreement, similar to the agreement executed for our 2014 inspection work. The basis for our
fee is shown in the two attached worksheets. We will not exceed this amount without your
authorization.
CLOSING
If you agree with this proposal, please return one executed (signed) copy of this letter along
with a Notice to Proceed.

ATTACHMENT A
RECREATION DESIGN APPROACH
This project will also develop conceptual designs and prepare architectural details to renovate
the recreational and urban design amenities at the Edmonds Fishing Pier. We expect high public
interest in the construction of the pier repairs. We believe that enhancing the recreational
amenities at this facility will improve usability, safety, and public enjoyment. During the
conceptual design phase, we will evaluate a range of potential design enhancements and
amenities for the pier, including the following.
Enhanced entry, educational, and regulatory signs
Site furnishings including repaired and new benches and trash receptacles
New wind breaks and sun/rain shelters
Upgraded fish cleaning stations including new roofs, surrounds, lighting, and utilities
Improved Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) fishing accessibility
Repaired guardrails including new metal coatings and top rails; and
Potential public art features including sculpture, murals, or other interpretive features
We will work with the City to review various design options and associated costs. We will
refine the project program based on City preferences and budget. We believe that including
innovative recreation amenities will ensure this project is inviting, dynamic, and inspiring.
30 Percent Recreation Design
BergerABAM will attend a site visit to review the condition of the existing fishing pier
amenities and use patterns. We will research precedence of potential design enhancements for
the fishing pier design, and will include materials, furnishings, structures, railings, and public
art and educational elements. We will develop design alternatives for potential amenities and
will prepare illustrative site plan drawings, sketches, and other concept graphics to convey
design intent. We will format and include the various design alternatives in the 30 percent
drawing submittal. BergerABAM will prepare rough order of magnitude cost estimates for the
various design options and a list of specification amendments to be provided during final
design. We will meet with the City discuss the design alternatives and associated costs.
60 Percent Recreation Design
Based on 30 percent review comments, we will update the recreation designs and prepare the 60
percent submittal. This submittal will include a materials and layout plan indicating the
location and condition of the recreation amenities. BergerABAM will prepare design details and

City of Edmonds BergerABAM, Fee Proposal for Engineering Services
Fishing Pier Rehabilitation Attachment A 3 October 2014
Edmonds, WA Page 2 of 2
plan enlargement drawings as needed, and coordinate with structural and electrical designers.
We will update the cost estimates and prepare draft specifications.
90 Percent Recreation Design
Based on 60 percent review comments, we will update the recreation designs and prepare the
90 percent submittal. This submittal will include a materials and layout plan indicating the
location and condition of the recreation amenities. BergerABAM will prepare design details and
plan enlargement drawings, as needed, and coordinate with structural and electrical designers.
We will update the cost estimates and draft specifications.
Final Design
Based on 90 percent review comments, we will finalize the recreation designs and prepare the
final PS&E submittal. This submittal will include a materials and layout plan indicating the
location and conditions of the recreation amenities. BergerABAM will prepare design details
and plan enlargement drawings, as needed and coordinate with structural and electrical
designers. We will update the cost estimates, unit quantities and final specifications.
