EDMONDS BUSINESS STORY: CAROL SCHILLIOS, FABRIC OF LIFE FOUNDATION STORE Carol Shillios, Founder, Fabric of Life Foundation, explained the store, a social entrepreneur business, opened in November and is operated by approximately 50 volunteers. A foundation has been established to assist social causes. Since November they have donated over $18,000 to projects in developing countries as well as in this community. Because Edmonds was a great place to have their store, she wanted to draw attention to Edmonds and the importance of one small act. She planned to live in a tent atop their building at 523 Main until one million people send her one dollar each and described the good they are doing in the world. Several community members have agreed to provide her a developing country meal including classrooms who will research a developing country and prepare a meal. The Rose House in Edmonds has offered its kitchen for groups to prepare meals. She identified other Edmonds businesses such as Rakin Jewelry who provided jewelry for a window display and Cole Gallery who displayed a picture in their window, pointing out collaboration between businesses could bring visibility to businesses. She envisioned a downtown community with a park-like setting where people could gather. The Edmonds Fire Department will lift her to the roof of the building on Friday, July 31 and KING 5 TV will film her assent. Music and dancing will follow from 4:00 – 6:00 p.m. in the street in front of the store. An Edmonds angel has offered to match every dollar contributed by Edmonds residents. She urged other cities to challenge their residents to provide matching donations. 3B. ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF EDMONDS, WASHINGTON, PROVIDING FOR THE SUBMISSION TO THE QUALIFIED VOTERS OF THE CITY AT THE NOVEMBER 3, 2009 ELECTION OF A PROPOSITION AUTHORIZING A LEVY LID LIFT TO INCREASE THE REGULAR PROPERTY TAX BY UP TO AN ADDITIONAL $0.4864, NOT TO EXCEED $2.2923 PER $1,000 OF TRUE ASSESSED VALUATION, SUPPLYING A BALLOT TITLE, STATING THE COUNCIL’S INTENT TO UTILIZE SUCH FUNDING FOR PUBLIC SAFETY, PARKS AND RECREATION, INCLUDING SENIOR CENTER AND YOST POOL, MAINTENANCE, TECHNOLOGY, AND OPERATION PURPOSES. Mayor Haakenson explained Council President Wilson originally moved the vote on the levy ordinance from tonight’s meeting to next week. City Attorney Scott Snyder informed Council President Wilson that with the vote on this agenda item scheduled for August 4, it would be noticed in the newspaper on August 9 and become effective five days later, August 14. The ordinance must be provided to the Snohomish County Auditor by August 11. As a result, Council President Wilson worked with Mr. Snyder to draft this ordinance for tonight’s agenda. Council President Pro Tem Wambolt recalled when the Council discussed the levy at last week’s meeting, a few Councilmembers did not agree with the items to be funded, items the Administration did not ask for, as well as providing for more expenditures than the Citizen Levy Review Committee endorsed. He Packet Page 5 of 407 Edmonds City Council Draft Minutes July 28, 2009 Page 3 reported hearing from several unhappy Levy Committee members who questioned the Council’s endorsement of such a levy. He concluded the prudent thing to do was postpone the levy until 2010. There is also the potential that the initiative proposed by Tim Eyman, Initiative 1033, that limits all tax increases to the rate of inflation plus population growth, could negate the City’s levy. Further, there have been concerns expressed that this is not the right time to place a levy on the ballot. For those reasons, he felt it best to postpone the levy until 2010. COUNCIL PRESIDENT PRO TEM WAMBOLT MOVED, SECONDED BY COUNCILMEMBER PLUNKETT, TO POSTPONE THE PROPERTY TAX LEVY UNTIL 2010. Councilmember Plunkett commented there were many reasons for delaying the levy. He determined 30 days ago and again last week that November was not the time for a levy and that the best opportunity for success would be next year. He preferred to fund and even increase funding to the Senior Center in the budget, rather than on the ballot, and preferred to fund Yost Pool in the budget rather than on the ballot. Councilmember Peterson acknowledged a levy was needed to fully fund essential services and to build the City’s reserves to improve the City’s financial position in the future. However, timing is everything and Initiative 1033 raises a question about the City’s levy if both are approved on the same ballot. In addition, negotiations are underway regarding the Fire District 1 proposal which could affect the City’s finances. And while the economy shows signs of improvement, it will take some time for the economy to recover, making this a difficult time to ask taxpayers for a property tax increase. He expressed support for the motion to delay the levy until 2010. Councilmember Bernheim explained the reason this vote was scheduled for tonight instead of next week when Council President Wilson would be present was to account for the possibility of the Mayor’s veto. If the Council voted next week to place the levy on the November ballot, the timing was sufficient except in the event of the Mayor’s veto. Thus the reason for voting tonight was in the event a motion passed to place the levy on the ballot and the Mayor vetoed, there would not be time for the Council to override the veto. Councilmember Bernheim questioned how the levy could be delayed when it was his understanding the City had such a serious economic problem that there were plans to cut funding to the Senior Center and close Yost Pool. Because the City’s financial situation was unchanged, the responsible action was for government to ask the taxpayers for a property tax increase to provide additional funds. He recalled nearly all members of the Citizen Levy Review Committee (CLRC) recommended a property tax increase of varying amounts. Councilmember Bernheim said he had not received any communications from the public expressing concern with the proposed levy. With regard to Initiative 1033, he did not view that as a reason not to place the City’s levy on the ballot. He advised the levy proposed last week and approved by the Council would result in an $18.50/month increase for a home valued at $456,000; more or less for homes with higher or lower assessed values. Councilmember Bernheim preferred to place the levy on the November 2009 ballot even if it did not pass, pointing out it would provide an indication of the public’s feeling toward the levy. He questioned the basis of the comment that the levy had a better chance of success next year. He concluded it was always better to do something twice; the first time could be a practice. He also disagreed with the comment that it was better to fund the Senior Center and Yost Pool in the budget rather than via a levy, pointing out funding in the budget for both was in jeopardy. He was opposed to the motion to postpone the levy until 2010 and preferred to schedule the levy ordinance on next week’s Council agenda. Packet Page 6 of 407 Edmonds City Council Draft Minutes July 28, 2009 Page 4 Council President Pro Tem Wambolt stated the citizen concerns he received were expressed via private conversations. He agreed all the CLRC teams supported a levy in 2009; however, their support was for a levy that maintained services, not the extra items that were added last week. He recalled some Councilmembers preferred Prop 3 last week rather than Prop 2 which added expenditures the Administration had not requested. He found it unusual in a time of budget shortfalls, the Council wanted to provide more funding than the Administration asked for. With regard to Councilmember Bernheim’s suggestion to do a practice levy, he pointed out that practice would cost the City $80,000. Councilmember Plunkett reiterated the risk of losing $80,000 if the levy did not pass as well as Initiative 1033 as the reason he supported postponing the levy vote until next year. Next, he pointed out although Mayor Haakenson had proposed funding cuts for the Senior Center and Yost Pool, he was certain the Council would not have approved reducing the funding for Yost Pool or the Senior Center. He disagreed with providing funding for the Senior Center and Yost Pool via the proceeds of a levy. He concluded the Senior Center and Yost Pool were funded in next year’s budget and anticipated additional funding may be provided to the Senior Center. UPON ROLL CALL, MOTION CARRIED (4-2), COUNCIL PRESIDENT PRO TEM WAMBOLT AND COUNCILMEMBERS OLSON, PLUNKETT, AND PETERSON IN FAVOR; AND COUNCILMEMBER ORVIS AND BERNHEIM OPPOSED. 4. REPORT ON SUSTAINABILITY AGENDA. Planning Manager Rob Chave explained the problem of carbon emissions was widespread and occurred where people lived. He displayed a graph of carbon emissions, explaining emissions varied by month, day of the week and time of day. To address sustainability and climate change, the City has undertaken a number of actions including adoption by the City Council of resolutions and commitments, formation of the Mayor’s Climate Protection Committee and a commitment to a new Sustainability Element for the Comprehensive Plan. He identified the following resolutions passed by the Council: • Resolution 1129 (September 2006) – supported Kyoto Protocol, endorsed US Mayors’ Climate Protection Agreement and made a series of commitments • Resolution 1130 (September 2006) – joined ICLEI and committed to participating in the Cities for Climate Protection Campaign, pledged to take a “leadership role and address the same five milestones in the Cities Climate Protection Campaign • Resolution 1168 (April 2008) – established the City of Edmonds Sustainable Building Policy, established a LEED Silver standard for certain remodels and new City buildings and facilities, emphasized life cycle cost analyst • Resolution 1169 (April 2008) – joined the Cascade Agenda as a Member City, endorsed Cascade Agenda principles of making the City complete, compact and connected • Resolution 1170 (April 2008) – committed to a set of environmental principles, policies and goals for future action; emphasis on City taking a leadership role in addressing climate issues; and recognizing key role of education, transit and TOD in a complete and coordinated policy framework Mr. Chave explained the Mayor’s Climate Protection Committee has completed a greenhouse gas inventory for city operations as well as a community-wide greenhouse gas inventory and have begun the next step of developing priorities and an action plan. The Committee also serves as a clearing house for exploring, compiling and reporting city efforts and initiatives. He commented on the Sustainability Element of the Comprehensive Plan, explaining the definition of sustainability that has been used is development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to Packet Page 7 of 407 Edmonds City Council Draft Minutes July 28, 2009 Page 5 meet their needs. Sustainability is not solely focused on environmental sustainability; it also emphasizes the inter-related nature of environmental, economic and social factors in sustainability. Mr. Chave explained the State is moving forward with climate plans and emission reduction targets which will influence operations and funding priorities. The City’s Sustainability Element is intended to be the local vehicle to coordinate and relate long range planning and activities to shorter-term strategic and budgeting decisions. The Climate Protection Committee completed their initial inventories; next steps will identify and target program initiatives. The “big picture” requires a commitment to integrating and focusing city policies and initiatives toward a fundamental shift in how the City does business. Examples of this include the commitment to the Sustainability Element and the City’s recent application under the Federal Energy Efficiency Block Grant Program to initiate outreach with other community partners to broaden and deepen the commitment to addressing energy efficiency and climate change. He recalled the Council identified six Sustainability Actions at their 2009 retreat. 1. Pass the Sustainability Element of the Comprehensive Plan 2. Develop a comprehensive recycling plan for the City of Edmonds 3. Development of a green “branded” identity of Edmonds 4. Look at building codes as pertains to heat, insulation and energy efficiency 5. Consider the banning of the use of plastic bags in Edmonds 6. Become a “Leadership City” with Cascade Land Conservancy With regard to the Sustainability Element, Mr. Chave stated the Planning Board is working on the Element and expected to present it to the Council this fall as well as an Action Plan by year-end. With regard to developing a comprehensive recycling plan, Councilmember Peterson explained when he first joined the Council in January, he had a number of ideas for recycling. He soon learned the City’s Recycling Coordinator Steve Fisher was already doing them including a computer recycling program. He commended Mr. Fisher for his efforts. He relayed Councilmember Bernheim planned to expand recycling to the business community and will provide a report in the near future. With regard to developing a green branded identity for Edmonds, Councilmember Peterson thanked staff, particularly Mr. Chave and Mr. Clifton, for taking the lead on a number of issues. The first step has been to integrate efficiencies, recycling and green practices into day-to-day activities and visioning. The City submitted an application for approximately $162,000 in federal grant funds that will be used for projects that reduce the consumption of energy and reduce production of greenhouse gas emissions. Staff also feels it is important to reach out to residential and business communities as well as other partners such as Stevens Hospital, the Port, and Edmonds School District. Beyond those initial steps, next steps will be to highlight Edmonds successes. The Mayors Climate Protection Committee is discussing green branding and will discuss specific actions at their September meeting. The end goal for green branding goes beyond environmental protection and awareness, recognizing there can be positive economic impacts via marketing Edmonds as a green community. Studies have shown communities with an active environmental awareness have better businesses and are happier. With regard to building codes, Councilmember Orvis reported he is in the process of educating himself with the help of Building Official Ann Bullis. The State has done a great deal to improve thermal efficiencies of homes; in 2002 the State adopted an R21 standard which requires improved thermal insulation. In 2007 the State required that new windows reduce thermal transmittance by over 10%. In 2009-2010, the State is updating their building codes; one of their goals is to reduce the energy needs of new homes by 30%. With regard to the Council Sustainability Actions 5 and 6, Mayor Haakenson noted they would be addressed by upcoming agenda items. Packet Page 8 of 407 Edmonds City Council Draft Minutes July 28, 2009 Page 6 5. FINAL ACTION: PROPOSED ORDINANCE ADOPTING CHAPTER 6.80, PLASTIC BAG REDUCTION, IN THE EDMONDS CITY CODE TO PROMOTE THE USE OF RECYCLABLE PAPER AND/OR REUSABLE CHECKOUT BAGS BY RETAIL STORES LOCATED IN THE CITY, PROVIDING PENALTIES FOR VIOLATIONS, AND FIXING A TIME WHEN THE SAME SHALL BECOME EFFECTIVE, Councilmember Peterson commented it had been a great experience working with Councilmembers, staff, environmental groups, citizens and the business community to develop very important and well written legislation. Although there was some controversy regarding the ordinance, he pointed out the benefits of reducing the use of disposable bags to the environment, water quality, and greenhouse gas emissions. It was also beneficial economically. such as green branding the City, as well as reducing costs for businesses because they do not need to buy as many bags. This legislation will also put Edmonds on the forefront of protecting the environment and being good stewards of the natural beauty and was a small step toward getting Puget Sound clean. He acknowledged it would not solve the world’s problems but it was important that everyone do their part. Council President Pro Tem Wambolt referred to Section 6.80.020(c) on page 4 of the ordinance that states “the City shall work with retailers, retail associations, unions and other organizations to create educational elements about benefits of reusable bags. This may include signage at store locations, informational literature and employee training will take place before and after the operative date.” He questioned who would take these actions. Councilmember Peterson offered to take the lead, anticipating there would be opportunities with staff as well as with retailers and volunteer organizations. COUNCILMEMBER PETERSON MOVED, SECONDED BY COUNCILMEMBER BERNHEIM, TO ADOPT ORDINANCE NO. 3749 AS WRITTEN. COUNCILMEMBER PETERSON MOVED, SECONDED BY COUNCIL PRESIDENT PRO TEM WAMBOLT, TO ADD TO THE END OF PARAGRAPH A IN SECTION 6.80.010, “OR BAGS PROVIDED TO CARRY OUT FOOD, COOKED OR PREPARED AT A RESTAURANT OR OTHER SIMILAR FOOD AND BEVERAGE ESTABLISHMENTS.” Councilmember Orvis observed this would amend what was not considered “checkout bags.” Councilmember Peterson agreed and explained the primary goal of government was health, safety and welfare of its citizens. In working with the Washington Restaurant Association as well as local restaurants, there were concerns about food safety and he preferred to err on the side of food safety and include this language. THE VOTE ON THE AMENDMENT CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY. Council President Pro Tem Wambolt remarked he had not changed his mind about a ban on plastic bags. He thanked Councilmember Peterson for his effort championing this important issue, noting the focus he brought to the issue caused citizens to be more prudent in their use of bags. However, he did not support involving government in this matter; citizens were doing a great job of recycling and using reusable bags with no government involvement. There were also voluntary plastic bag recycling containers in many grocery stores. He disagreed with the term “single use bags,” pointing out bags were used for a variety of purposes. He referred to KOMO’s Ken Schramm who originally supported Seattle’s bag tax (charging consumers 20 cents for plastic or paper bags they get from a supermarket or convenience store) because he was swayed by the idea the best way to reduce waste was not to create it. He soon realized disposable bags were reused for a variety of purposes. Council President Pro Tem Wambolt summarized he did not feel this was appropriate legislation for a city to introduce. Packet Page 9 of 407 Edmonds City Council Draft Minutes July 28, 2009 Page 7 UPON ROLL CALL, MAIN MOTION AS AMENDED CARRIED (5-1), COUNCILMEMBERS ORVIS, BERNHEIM, OLSON, PLUNKETT, AND PETERSON IN FAVOR, AND COUNCIL PRESIDENT PRO TEM WAMBOLT OPPOSED. 7. AUDIENCE COMMENTS John Helgren, Edmonds, appointed himself ombudsman to inform the community of the true cost of the plastic bag ban, anticipating the total cost to be $100,000 - $500,000. He questioned the advisability of spending that much when the City would be faced with cutting the Police and Fire Department’s budgets. He asked whether the Council had an estimate of the legal fees, cost of enforcement, the departments involved, and the cost of the educational program. He asked who he could contact to obtain these figures. Mayor Haakenson suggested he work with Councilmember Peterson. Mr. Helgren advised he planned to publicize the cost in the newspaper to ensure the public was informed. Heather Trim, Seattle, People for Puget Sound, thanked the Council for passing the plastic bag reduction ordinance. She referred to the past presentation from Algalita Marine Research Foundation and samples of ocean water they provided showing microscopic plastics that enter the North Pacific Gyre that are toxic to wildlife including fish that humans eat. She commended the Council for standing up to the American Chemistry Council, an organization that is spending $1.4 million in Seattle to defeat the bag fee. With regard to costs, she suggested balancing the cost of the program with the cost to the environment and cost of health problems from ingesting toxins. With regard to enforcement, she explained Seattle passed a ban on Styrofoam takeout containers effective January 2009 and has spent virtually nothing on enforcement as most restaurants comply voluntarily. Joan Duce, Edmonds, spoke in favor of naming the new South Edmonds Park Hickman Park after Dr. Hickman, a community resident and the inventor of the Hickman Catheter. Her family as well as many others have experienced the benefits of the Hickman Catheter. She preferred to honor Dr. Hickman and his contributions to the medical field by naming the park after him rather than naming the park Cherry Blossom or Southwest Edmonds Park. She also supported naming the playground after J.P. Patches. Claudia Bailey, Edmonds, agreed with the recommendation to name the children’s playground after J.P. Patches. She attended the Planning Board meeting and read the list of 88 suggested names including Hickman Park. She and many others had never heard of Dr. Hickman. She recognized his contributions to the medical field, that he lived in the surrounding neighborhood and at one time was active at the old Woodway Elementary School but now has no connection to the community in which the park was located. She referred to three emails attached to the list of suggested names, noting they were submitted after the May 29 deadline. She preferred the name selected for the park be specific, easily identified and fit the park, recognizing the grassroots effort that resulted in this park. She urged the Council to select a more descriptive name for the park. Dave Page, Edmonds, agreed with the Council’s action to postpone the levy until 2010 but suggested placing it on the ballot as early as possible in 2010 to take advantage of the energy generated for the levy. He commented on the Council candidates’ and others’ willing to canvas the City to generate support for the levy. Next, he commended Fire Chief Tomberg and his staff for agreeing to consolidate the City’s Fire Department with Fire District 1. He concluded consolidating the City’s Fire Department with Fire District 1 would be tremendously beneficial to the City. Rebecca Wolfe, Edmonds, congratulated the Council for having the vision to support a ban on plastic bags, expressing her hope the City would adopt a ban on paper bags in the future. She noted several members of the Mayor’s Climate Protection Committee were moving forward on ways to meet greenhouse gas emission standards. One of the ways is a City of Edmonds Green Partners Program, a Packet Page 10 of 407 Edmonds City Council Draft Minutes July 28, 2009 Page 8 scorecard for businesses to promote green activities. They hoped to incorporate schools and faith communities in the future. They are working with Sustainable Edmonds on this effort. Nancy Morris, Shoreline, thanked the Council for approving a ban on plastic bags and urged them to consider banning paper bags in the future. With regard to Seattle’s 20 cent fee on plastic and paper bags, she clarified it was not a tax; it was a fee to try to change behavior in a positive direction. She anticipated a per bag fee would help the public change their habits. She hoped Shoreline would adopt a similar ban or fee in the future. Priya Cloutier, Edmonds, a member of the CLRC, recalled 60+ citizens told the Council a levy was needed this year and questioned why the Council had now voted to postpone the levy until next year. She recalled earlier this year there were discussions of dipping into the City’s $1.9 million emergency fund to keep Yost Pool open, but now the emergency seemed to have disappeared and there was enough money to fund Yost Pool. She questioned if the extra money was from staff taking furlough days and whether staff would be asked to take furlough days again next year. Although she was not happy with the levy as planned, the CLRC urged the Council to work together to develop a workable levy. She was disappointed the Council’s actions today reflected the same behavior that brought the City to this point. She urged the Council to reconsider their vote to postpone the levy and to propose a workable levy. After doorbelling 4,000 houses in Edmonds, she knew people were aware of the levy and supported it. Don Hall, Edmonds, thanked the Council for passing the ordinance banning plastic bags. He noted not just cities were banning plastic bags, the United Nations is seeking a worldwide ban or effort to phase out plastic bags due to their negative impacts on marine life. He anticipated the cost of the ban would be minimal; the attorney fees to date were approximately $4,000. Rob Trahms, Edmonds, congratulated the City on purchasing and developing a new park and he was looking forward to the August 8 opening. He attended the Planning Board meeting when the park naming was discussed and was surprised they selected Hickman as the name of the park. He recognized Hickman’s contributions but said he and many others did not know who he was. He preferred the park name be something people understood, resonated with and brought the community together. The Southwest Edmonds Neighborhood Association reviewed the names in a more scientific manner, and selected five candidate names that better represented the neighborhood: Nottingham Park, Citizens Park, Forest Meadows Park, Big Rock Park and Firdale Park. He urged the Council to reconsider Hickman as the name for the park and suggested asking the Planning Board to take a more scientific approach to naming the park in a manner that was representative of the community. Cheryl Clarke, Edmonds, urged the City to approve the Planning Board’s recommendation to name the new park in southwest Edmonds Hickman Park after a man who dedicated his life to improving the quality of life for others and served the community for over 45 years. She expressed dismay that on July 15, following the Planning Board’s July 8 meeting when the recommendation regarding the park name was made, Cliff Sanderlin, a local resident and member of the Southwest Edmonds Neighborhood Association, contacted Dr. Hickman and offered to name the property Hickman Field if he and his neighbors would assist with purchasing the remainder of the Burnstead property. Dr. Hickman declined his offer. She urged the Council to consider the public comments they and the Planning Board received in support of the name Hickman Park. Dr. Hickman was surprised and humbled by the recommendation to name the park after him; he and his family have lived in the same home since 1964. She concluded it would be unfortunate if the City missed this opportunity to honor Dr. Hickman. George Murray, Edmonds, expressed support for a human’s name for the park because it stimulated questions and answers about the person. With regard to the levy, he recalled the Council felt it was necessary as did the 60 member CLRC. Cuts to Senior Center funds were proposed and the threatened Packet Page 11 of 407 Edmonds City Council Draft Minutes July 28, 2009 Page 9 closure of Yost Pool also emphasized the need for the levy. He was surprised now the Council had voted to postpone the levy to next year, fearing the public would begin to doubt whether a levy was necessary. With regard to the report made to the Planning Board by the Highway 99 Taskforce, he noted only 4% of the Chamber of Commerce members were outside downtown Edmonds. Colin Southcote-Want, Edmonds, stated the southwest Edmonds neighborhoods were looking forward to the park opening but were concerned with the name. He was opposed to naming the park Hickman Park, not because of any ill will toward Dr. Hickman but because the gentleman lived in Woodway and because the name Hickman did not resonate with the neighbors. He noted few in the neighborhood were familiar with the name Hickman. He asked the Park Director who submitted the name Hickman Park and was told he would need to submit a public records request. He suggested a Councilmember inquire of staff who submitted the name Hickman Park. He anticipated the name was proposed by Cheryl Clarke, a serious conflict of interest between her proposal and Kevin Clarke’s involvement on the Planning Board subcommittee and Planning Board. He suggested the Council refer the naming back to the Planning Board for three names that reflected the will of the people, noting 68% of the responses favored a neighborhood theme or features of the park. None of the 15 letters in support of the name Hickman Park came from the Southwest Edmonds neighborhood and most were from outside Edmonds. Roger Hertrich, Edmonds, agreed a City park should be named after someone living in the City. He referred to the Cascade Land Conservancy presentation, noting their focus was compact urban development. With regard to the levy, the Council, Mayor and CLRC all said the levy was necessary. The Council got sidetracked by the plastic bag ban and when they returned to the levy issue, determined it was not necessary. He agreed with Council President Pro Tem Wambolt that the plastic bag ban was unnecessary, pointing out the way to improve the environment was to ban Styrofoam takeout containers. The plastic bag ban may be nice in an election year to show that a Councilmember was green. He questioned what Councilmember Peterson had done for economic development in Edmonds. Councilmember Plunkett reminded speakers the podium was for public policy discussion and candidate discussions were not appropriate. He urged candidates and speakers to keep their comments to the issues. Sarah Duce, Edmonds, expressed her support for the name Hickman Park, explaining Dr. Hickman had helped her family a great deal during her father’s illness and with the grieving process after his death. Mayor Haakenson applauded the Council’s decision to postpone the levy until 2010, finding it prudent and the right thing to do. The condition of the economy, the Eyman initiative, and the levy content included at last week’s Council meeting spelled defeat at the polls in his opinion. In addition, a contract for fire service with Fire District 1 will be presented to the Council in a few weeks. He acknowledged there was a need for more money and that the City’s financial problems had not yet been resolved. The levy would bring those funds from the taxpayers; the Fire District 1 proposal would provide those funds in a different manner. If the Council approved the Fire District 1 contract and had already placed a ballot measure on the levy, the Council likely would have told voters the levy was unnecessary and the $80,000 cost of the election would have been wasted. The prudent thing for the Council to do was to look at the Fire District 1 contract and if it was not acceptable, pursue a levy in 2010. Mayor Haakenson pointed out when the Council began considering a levy in November 2008, no one knew a Fire District 1 proposal was coming, that the economy would continue to slide or that the budget cuts made early in 2009 would reduce 2009 expenses as well as 2010 expenses. The budget cuts were prudent, allowing the City to get through two years. With regard to Yost Pool and the Senior Center, he assured both were fully funded in the 2010 budget. He assured the City’s labor force would not be asked to take the salary cuts they did this year; budget cuts would be made instead. The labor groups agreed to those cuts to save jobs; that would not be an option next year, jobs would be lost without the Fire District Packet Page 12 of 407 Edmonds City Council Draft Minutes July 28, 2009 Page 10 1 contract or the levy. He concluded alternate funding sources have arisen since November 2008 when the Council began this process. 6. PRESENTATION BY THE CASCADE LAND CONSERVANCY Nick Harper, Snohomish County Conservation Director, Cascade Land Conservancy, explained they were formerly the Snohomish County Land Trust and operate throughout the Puget Sound Region in Snohomish, King, Pierce and Kittitas Counties and are beginning work in Mason County. In the spring they helped close on 480 acres of properties added to the Wild Sky Wildness Area, helped Darrington acquire a 9-acre park on the Sauk River that provides recreation and preserves critical salmon habitat, worked with Snohomish County to amend its Transfer Development Rights ordinance and closed on the purchase of development rights of 780 acres from small forest land owners in Snohomish County. Last spring Edmonds became the first Member City in the Cascade Agenda City’s Program, followed by Snohomish, Lynnwood, Mill Creek and Mountlake Terrace. Jeff Aken, Cities Program Manager, Cascade Land Conservancy, explained they have protected approximately 155,000 acres of forest and farm lands and shorelines over the past 20 years. Over the past five years they realized a large scale conservation effort required working with cities to accommodate future population growth in a way that protected and enhanced the current quality of life as new residents moving to the region are accommodated. He displayed aerial maps illustrating the urban growth boundaries and natural characteristics with current land uses. He displayed a 2100 alternative future land uses map that envisioned lost natural characteristics with relaxed growth boundaries and a continued sprawling growth pattern and a map of a 2100 Planning future that Cascade Land Conservancy envisioned by focusing growth in cities. He identified the Cascade Agenda’s Goals: 1. Save our Landscape – protect 1.3 million acres of forests and farms and shorelines 2. Enhance our communities – Smart community planning and spectacular parks and public places. The Cascade Agenda Cities Program Mission is to “enlist the region’s cities to improve the livability of neighborhoods – making them compete, compact and connected – spectacular enough for people to choose to live there, saving the region’s natural and working lands from poorly planned development. He described attributes that were envisioned for complete, compact and connected cities. The four elements of complete, compact connect cities are compact centers, innovative housing, streets for people and natural spaces. The Cascade Agenda Cities Program educates partner cities about what it takes to become a truly livable city, helps cities and their citizens understand their options and make smart choices for future growth, and provide a framework for continuous improvement and sharing best practices that enables cities to make their communities better. Mr. Aken invited Edmonds to become a Leadership City, a $5,000 annual fee. Benefits of being a Leadership City include the following: • 25 hours of staff time • A Community Stewards program • Livability Assessment • Learning Network • Design for Livability Symposium • Outreach and support of quality of life Packet Page 13 of 407 Edmonds City Council Draft Minutes July 28, 2009 Page 11 • Work with staff and Council on issues as they arise The 25 hours of staff time for Edmonds could include examining potential transit oriented development opportunities, complete streets policy development, and raise long term visibility around the comprehensive planning process. Future opportunities could include Transfer of Development Rights, Green City Partnership and Civic Engagement. The four other Leadership Cities are Kirkland, Issaquah, Tukwila and Tacoma. Member Cities include Buckley, Burien, Edmonds, Ellensburg, Lynnwood, Mill Creek, Mountlake Terrace, Shoreline, Snohomish and Sammamish. Next steps are a partnership agreement between the City and Cascade Land Conservancy, the $5,000 annual membership fee, and participation in the learning network. Mayor Haakenson recalled during the last legislative session, Cascade Land Conservancy and Futurewise sponsored HB 1490, yet there was no request for input from Edmonds regarding that bill. He recalled most cities actually opposed HB 1490. Mr. Aken clarified Cascade Land Conservancy did not sponsor HB 1490, it was sponsored by Futurewise and Cascade Land Conservancy did not take a position on the bill. Although many cities supported the overall goals of HB 1490, they did not support the mandated one-size-fits-all density. He recalled last October when Cascade Land Conservancy’s legislative agenda was presented that included a bill regarding regional transfer of development rights program and a rural study bill, Mr. Chave and representatives of other cities provided their 2009 legislative agenda. Council President Pro Tem Wambolt recalled HB 1490 would have resulted in 5 story buildings through the entire Edmonds bowl which he noted may save forests but would destroy cities. Mr. Harper commented although he respected Futurewise’s intentions, Cascade Land Conservancy’s goal and mission has been working with cities on an individual basis to understand their issues. Council President Pro Tem Wambolt asked whether Cascade Land Conservancy anticipated Futurewise would sponsor a similar bill in 2010. Mr. Aken expected it would be dramatically different if they did. Councilmember Plunkett asked whether Cascade Land Conservancy would oppose HB 1490 if brought back in its present form. Mr. Aken answered Cascade Land Conservancy did not take a position in 2009 but did not support the bill primarily because of the 50 dwelling units per acre. Mr. Harper answered Cascade Land Conservancy would not actively support the bill. He welcomed any inquiries from cities. Mayor Haakenson advised the Council would consider becoming a Leadership City and schedule it on a future agenda. 8. REPORT ON EDMONDS PLANNING BOARD'S NAMING RECOMMENDATIONS FOR THE NEW PARK IN SOUTH EDMONDS. Parks & Recreation Director Brian McIntosh announced the park at 23700 104th SW will be dedicated on August 8 at 10:00 a.m. followed by a community party hosted by the Southwest Edmonds Neighborhood Association. He referred to the seven attachments to the Council agenda packet: Park Naming Form, Park Naming Entries, Planning Board July 8, 2009 Draft minutes, Park Naming Letters, Naming Subcommittee email dated June 24, 2009, Park Name entries by Category, and Park Naming Policy. Council President Pro Tem Wambolt asked who submitted the name Hickman Park. Mr. McIntosh answered Mrs. Clarke. With the adoption of the Park Naming Policy by City Council on March 24 of this year the Planning Board was charged with recommending park names for new parks developed in Edmonds. The first park Packet Page 14 of 407 Edmonds City Council Draft Minutes July 28, 2009 Page 12 to be named under this policy will be the new park in south Edmonds at the former Woodway Elementary School site. Parks & Recreation staff assisted the Planning Board by advertising and gathering proposals for park names through placing the entry forms in City buildings and on the City website, Channel 21, public service announcements to local newspapers, and large signs and boxes with entry forms at the new park site. This opportunity was available for five weeks with a closing date of May 29. A total of 88 names by 50 individuals were submitted by the deadline and forwarded to the Planning Board for their consideration. A three person Planning Board subcommittee comprised of John Reed, Valerie Stewart and Kevin Clarke was established to review all of the proposed names and bring recommendations to the full Planning Board public hearing on July 8, 2009. During the public portion of the hearing seven citizens spoke. In addition, 16 letters were received and included in the Planning Board packets in advance of the hearing. Following Board discussion, a motion was made that the Planning Board recommend to the City Council for final adoption the permanent name of Hickman Park for the new park located at the site of the old Woodway Elementary School and the play area located at the northeast portion of the park be named J.P. Patches Play Area. An amendment was made and approved (with one abstention) to also forward the entire list of nominations and the email memorandum from the Subcommittee dated June 24, 2009, to the City Council. The motion as amended was approved with one abstention. Planning Board and Park Naming Subcommittee member Kevin Clarke pointed out Councilmembers were elected to represent the entire city and the Park Naming Policy did not require they disqualify themselves because they did not live near the park. On June 10, the Planning Board discussed the short amount of time available to complete the park naming process prior to the grand opening, emphasizing the desire to have the park name selected prior to the park opening. The Board selected a subcommittee comprised of Board Members Reed, Stewart and Clark to identify the top ten names. The subcommittee agreed to conduct a public hearing and the Planning Board agreed to conduct a public hearing as part of the Park Naming Process. Board members were invited to email ideas and thoughts to subcommittee members. The Planning Board was presented with 88 names in the same tabular form provided to the Council that does not identify who submitted the names. The order of the names reflects the order they were received. The Park Naming Process was developed by staff, presented to the Planning Board for recommendation and forwarded to the City Council for approval. The Council approved the policy on March 24, 2009. He referred to March 24, 2009 minutes that reflect an amendment requesting the right to have Sherwood Park considered in the process because the policy specifically prohibits giving the same name to a park as an existing school site or public facility unless the sites abut one another. A concern was raised with amending the policy for this park when it was a citywide park naming policy. The motion to amend the policy failed and the motion to adopt the park naming policy was approved. He recalled a Councilmember then stated the Council could approve whatever name they wanted. Mr. Clarke advised the naming policy states the naming of park facilities shall be the function of the City Council with assistance of the Planning Board and the Parks/Cultural Services Department. Diversity, balance and creativity will be sought during the adoption of names. The name selected for a site will be recommended to the Council for approval or amendment. City Council has final authority to approve or remand any recommendation. He assured the Planning Board had no desire to submit a name that the Council would overturn. Packet Page 15 of 407 Edmonds City Council Draft Minutes July 28, 2009 Page 13 Mr. Clarke referred to the Park Naming Contest form which includes the criteria for naming parks and requesting participants submit one name per entry with space to describe why the name should be chosen. He described the subcommittee’s process for selecting the top ten names. First they utilized a map with the location and characteristics of all the City’s parks. Some parks are named after historical pioneers such as Brackett, Yost or Frances Anderson. Other parks are associated with specific geographic areas such as Marina Beach Park, Olympic Beach Park, Underwater Park, Pine Street Playfield, and Pine Ridge Park. There are also the Civic Center Playfields, City Park, and Hummingbird Hill Park. Two parks are named after individuals who gave the park land to the City, Hutt Park and Mathay Ballinger Park. The subcommittee divided the 88 names submitted into categories, Robin Hood theme names, other local theme park names, park feature names, individual names, humorous and political names, and others. The public hearing notice was sent to the 50 individuals who submitted a name to the park naming contest. The most names submitted by one individual was 11; one individual submitted 8 names and many submitted 2-4 names. The subcommittee concluded individuals were attempting to influence the process by submitting multiple names as evidenced by the reasons for choosing the name such as “keeping to the Robin Hood theme” or “consistent with the theme of the neighborhood.” Mr. Clarke pointed out the name of Sherwood School was not related to Robin Hood. Only one subdivision in the neighborhood, Sherwood Village which consists of 73 lots and 3 square blocks, has Robin Hood related names. This area, from Woodway to Highway 99 and south of Edmonds Way was in unincorporated Snohomish County until 1995 when the area was annexed. He emphasized a neighborhood consists of multiple subdivisions and none of the subdivisions in the neighborhood have their own park. Many of the subdivisions in the neighborhood have monument signs identifying the neighborhood, Sherwood Village does not. He commented on the difficulty of choosing between the Robin Hood related names and ignoring the other subdivisions in the area. The legal description of this park references Woodway Meadows. He explained Board Members Sharon Lowell, Valerie Stewart and John Reed submitted emails to the subcommittee containing 5-6 names and from those the list of 10 names was created. The three emails had only one name in common, Hickman Park although none of them knew Dr. Hickman. Mr. Clarke assured he did not try to influence the subcommittee or the Planning Board’s vote. He relayed the following subcommittee recommendations: • Honor former Police Chief Stern at either this facility or another facility in the City • Install a permanent plaque at the park that recognizes the community effort in acquiring and designing the park • Permanently name the children’s play area J.P. Patches Play Area • Names: South Edmonds Community Park, in recognition of the location; Cherry Blossom Park in recognition of a significant feature; and Hickman Park recognizing a prominent individual. Mr. Clarke summarized only Hickman Park was mentioned by those who testified at the public hearing; Roger Hertrich submitted a name after the deadline; Rob Trahms did not recommend a name but recognized the high number of names associated with Robin Hood, Colin Southcote-Want did not submit a name but favored a Robin Hook theme, Jan Robertson did not mention a name. The written record included 16 letters in favor of Hickman Park and a letter from Lora Petso recommending Nottingham Park. Mr. Clarke pointed out although Dr. Hickman lives in Woodway; he uses Edmonds, Washington 98020 as his address. Mr. Clarke explained in 1984 when his youngest son had kidney disease, Dr. Hickman Packet Page 16 of 407 Edmonds City Council Draft Minutes July 28, 2009 Page 14 was the head of Nephrology. Although he attended school with Dr. Hickman’s children, he was not aware he was a nephrologist. His son had a Hickman catheter as did his mother when she had breast cancer. Although he knew Dr. Hickman and his family, he did not attempt to influence the vote. Councilmember Plunkett clarified Dr. Hickman lived in Woodway but used Edmonds as his address. Mr. Clarke agreed Dr. Hickman lived on Kulshan Road in Woodway but used Edmonds as his address. Council President Pro Tem Wambolt commented he lived in Woodway for 22 years and usually used Edmonds for his address because the cities have the same zip code. Councilmember Plunkett commented he did not care who made the nomination and did not believe Mr. Clarke had a conflict of interest. The Planning Board made the decision on the recommended name, not Mr. Clarke. He has learned a lot of Dr. Hickman and his mother had a similar experience with a Hickman catheter while battling cancer. Although the Council established a policy for park naming, the Council reserved the right to make the ultimate decision. The Planning Board made a very sincere and exacting effort to recommend a name in as objectively a manner as possible. He could support about 75 names on the list including Nottingham, Forest Meadows, Woodway Meadows, and Chief Stern Park. Councilmember Bernheim commented it did not matter to him who made the nomination or that people submitted multiple nominations. The intent was to identify names for consideration in the process. He did not find a conflict of interest in a spouse participating in the naming contest. He observed Dr. Hickman was widely loved in the community although he was not familiar with who he was before this process began. His preferred names included Forest Meadows, Big Rock, Cherry Blossom, and Cherry Tree Park. He noted the remaining cherry tree was the most prominent feature in the park and was an inspiring symbol. He opposed naming any permanent public facility or a park after a living person. Council President Pro Tem Wambolt commented the Planning Board did a great deal of work selecting the name and he was not concerned about any conflict of interest as the recommendation for Hickman Park was made via a 5-0-1 vote. COUNCIL PRESIDENT PRO TEM WAMBOLT MOVED, SECONDED BY COUNCILMEMBER PETERSON, TO ACCEPT THE PLANNING BOARD’S RECOMMENDATION TO NAME THE PARK HICKMAN PARK. Councilmember Orvis commented a majority of the households around the park generated theme-based names. He preferred to name the park Cherry Blossom, Nottingham, or Woodway Meadows Park. Councilmember Peterson referred to Mr. Southcote Want’s comment that the letters in support of the name Hickman Park came from throughout Edmonds but also from the region. This is a city park, everyone in the city pays for the park and will enjoy this park. He viewed the diverse geography of support as well as discovering that this individual lived in the community as positive. He concluded naming the park after Dr. Hickman created an opportunity to learn more about a person who has saved countless lives. UPON ROLL CALL, MOTION TIED (3-3), COUNCIL PRESIDENT PRO TEM WAMBOLT AND COUNCILMEMBERS OLSON AND PETERSON IN FAVOR; AND COUNCILMEMBERS ORVIS, PLUNKETT AND BERNHEIM OPPOSED. Mayor Haakenson offered the Council two choices: he could cast the deciding vote or the Council could vote again at their next meeting when Council President Wilson would be present. It was the consensus of the Council to vote again at the August 4 meeting. Packet Page 17 of 407 Edmonds City Council Draft Minutes July 28, 2009 Page 15 9. COUNCIL REPORTS ON OUTSIDE COMMITTEE/BOARD MEETINGS Council President Pro Tem Wambolt reported at the July 13 Port Commission meeting there was a presentation by Seattle NW Securities regarding their analysis of the Port bonds and concluding they did not need to refinance their bonds at this time. The Port Commissioners also reviewed staff’s response to PSRC’s Transportation 2040 DEIS. The Commissioners approved a $50,000 renovation of their marina operation restrooms. Council President Pro Tem Wambolt reported the Highway 99 Taskforce met with the Planning Board last week. The meeting included discussion regarding the $160 million project at 220th & Highway 99 which has been delayed due to the economy. A development is planned for the property behind Safeway when the economy improves. The Taskforce is discussing with Hagens, the owner of Top Foods, development of vacant space on their property at the corner of Highway 99 & 220th. The Taskforce is also considering talking with the Highway 99 property owners in Esperance north of Safeway about annexing into Edmonds. Councilmember Peterson reported the SeaShore Transportation Committee is attempting to bring Seattle back to the organization. Councilmember Orvis reported the Health Board is struggling with where to make additional cuts. Because the Health Board’s budget is already bare bones, the choice is to cut programs that affect low income children or cut programs that affect their ability to control disease. A suggestion was made to merge the Health Board with Snohomish County to realize economies of scale. The next step is for the Health Officer to propose possible cuts for the Health Board’s consideration. Councilmember Plunkett reported the City has $400,000 in grants for Highway 99 and plan to go out to bid this fall for Highway 99 enhancements including lighting, artistic elements and sidewalks. The City has 30% funded design for the intersection of 288th & Highway 99 and are applying for a grant for the remaining 70%. 10. MAYOR'S COMMENTS Mayor Haakenson had no report. 11.

Naming of New Park in Edmonds Edmonds City Council Meeting Date:08/04/2009 Submitted By:Brian McIntosh, Parks and Recreation Time:10 Minutes Department:Parks and Recreation Type:Action Review Committee: Committee Action: Information Subject Title Naming of New Park in Edmonds. Recommendation from Mayor and Staff Consider Planning Board's recommendations and confirm a name for the new park. Previous Council Action On July 28, 2009 City Council decided to return this agenda item for a vote of the full Council at the August 4, 2009 meeting. Narrative At the July 28 City Council meeting this topic was discussed by Council (DRAFT minutes attached). Council was apprised of the steps taken to collect the 88 names that were submitted. Planning Board and Park Naming Subcommittee member Kevin Clarke reviewed the Park Naming Policy and the reasoning used in proposing the Planning Board recommendations to adopt the permanent park name of "Hickman Park" and the northwest play ground the "J.P. Patches Play Area". Following discussion, the Council vote on the recomendation was tied 3-3. Mayor Haakenson suggested two alternatives to Council to break the tie: The Mayor could vote and break the tie or Council could choose to put this item on the August 4 agenda when a full Council would be present. Council chose to put the final decision on the August 4 agenda.

BOARD MEMBERS PRESENT Michael Bowman, Chair Philip Lovell, Vice Chair John Reed Cary Guenther Kevin Clarke Valerie Stewart BOARD MEMBERS ABSENT Jim Young (excused) Judith Works (excused) STAFF PRESENT Rob Chave, Planning Division Manager Brian McIntosh, Parks, Recreation and Cultural Services Director Renee McRae, Recreational Manager Debbie Dawson, Animal Control Officer Carl Nelson, Chief Information Officer Karin Noyes, Recorder READING/APPROVAL OF MINUTES BOARD MEMBER REED MOVED THAT THE MINUTES OF JUNE 24, 2009 BE APPROVED AS AMENDED. VICE CHAIR LOVELL SECONDED THE MOTION. THE MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY. ANNOUNCEMENT OF AGENDA A question and answer period with Debbie Dawson, Animal Control Officer, was added to the agenda as Item 5a. The remainder of the agenda was accepted as presented. AUDIENCE COMMENTS There was no one in the audience to address the Board during this portion of the meeting. DISCUSSION WITH ANIMAL CONTROL OFFICER REGARDING PROPOSED AMENDMENT TO THE EDMONDS COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT CODE (ECDC) TO ALLOW THE KEEPING OF DOMESTIC FEMALE FOWL IN SINGLE-FAMILY ZONES (FILE NUMBER AMD-09-7 Mr. Chave reminded the Board of their previous discussion regarding a proposed amendment that would allow property owners in single-family residential zones to keep up to three hens. He advised that at the request of the Board, Debbie Dawson, Animal Control Officer, was present to speak with them about whether or not the existing animal control regulations would adequately address all potential issues related to the proposed change. Packet Page 90 of 407 APPROVED Planning Board Minutes July 8, 2009 Page 2 Ms. Dawson explained that the current regulations provide the City the ability to address situations where animals run at large, as well as situations related to noise and smell. She said she does not believe that keeping hens would result in any significant noise problems, but problems could arise as a result of hens being allowed to run at large. She noted that just last month an animal control officer spent more than an hour trying to run down four chickens, and housing stray chickens is problematic, as well. At this time, the City contracts with an outside agency to provide housing for stray dogs and cats. While they also have a coop, they are not really set up to house chickens. There would also be issues with what to do with chickens that are not claimed. While the City has been able to place all their stray dogs and cats, she is not sure this would be possible with farm animals. She also noted that while it is easy to pick up dog and cat matter to keep a property free of odor, it is more difficult to keep chicken areas clean. She noted that the zoning code does address the issue of coop location. Board Member Reed inquired if the current regulations make any distinction regarding coop size and whether or not it is covered. Mr. Chave answered that the current regulations do not speak to these two issues, but they do talk about where coops can be located relative to property lines. He said he would suspect that in most situations, owners would provide some type of covered shelter for their hens. He summarized that regulations related to how animals are kept are located in Chapter 5 of the Edmonds Municipal Code, and regulations pertaining to use are located in the Edmonds Community Development Code. Ms. Dawson added that the current regulations require that animals be kept appropriate for the climate and weather. She suggested that perhaps the regulations could be amended to require that hens be put away at night. Board Member Stewart inquired if the current regulations provide any guidelines specifically related to the care of chickens. Ms. Dawson answered that there are none, but she said she has written tickets for loose chickens. Chair Bowman asked Ms. Dawson to identify any particular problems that have come up related to chickens that the Board should be aware of. Ms. Dawson pointed out that keeping chickens is becoming a popular use in single-family zones. However, it is important to remember that Edmonds is a City, and she is not sure that every property owner who wants to have urban chickens has really thought about how they would care for them. Chair Bowman asked Ms. Dawson to share recent situations that have come up related to chickens. Ms. Dawson replied that four situations came up just in the last month, and two the month before. Chair Bowman inquired if the City has received any complaints from property owners about their neighbors keeping chickens. Ms. Dawson answered that they have received complaints. Because many of the chickens are not registered as required by the zoning code, the animal control officers have encouraged property owners to cease the use. Ms. Dawson explained that there are only 8 to 12 property owners in the City of Edmonds who are legally allowed to keep chickens, and the chickens must be registered. Mr. Chave further explained that when the City code was changed to prohibit the keeping of chickens, a grandfather provision was included that allowed people who were keeping chickens to register their chickens and continue the use into the future. Ms. Dawson emphasized that some property owners are keeping chickens without registering them because the provision is not applicable to their situation. Mr. Chave reminded the Board that the City Council has requested they consider whether or not it is appropriate for the City to allow property owners in single-family zones to keep up to three hens. This use is not currently allowed unless property owners registered their chickens during that brief period of time several years ago. Vice Chair Lovell recalled that when the Board last discussion the proposed amendment, their main concern was where the description and criteria related to the use would be located in the City’s current codes and regulations. Mr. Chave advised that there is no language specific to chickens in the current code; only provisions that deal with animals in general. If the proposed amendment is adopted to allow the keeping of up to three hens, animal control would use the existing general provisions to regulate the use based on situations related to noise, smell, etc. He further explained that, currently, if a complaint is issued regarding the actual use, the situation would be addressed by the City’s code enforcement officer because chickens are not allowed in the City in most situations. However, if the chickens are legally registered, the animal control officers would be responsible for addressing complaints and problems. If the zoning code is changed to allow up to three hens in single-family zones, any situations that come up as a result of the allowed use would be addressed by an animal control officer rather than the code enforcement officer. Packet Page 91 of 407 APPROVED Planning Board Minutes July 8, 2009 Page 3 Board Member Stewart requested that Ms. Dawson provide suggestions about what might be included in the Edmonds Municipal Code to address future concerns. Ms. Dawson agreed to review the existing language to see if anything needs to be added specific for chickens. Board Member Clarke inquired who would be responsible for amending the animal control regulations. Mr. Chave explained that proposed amendments to Chapter 5.05 of the Edmonds Municipal Code would be put forth by the Police Department, with some discussion with Planning Department Staff to ensure consistency between the Edmonds Municipal Code and the Edmonds Community Development Code. He noted that amendments to the Edmonds Municipal Code could go directly to the City Council for a public hearing and final decision. He explained that the City Council referred the proposed amendment to the Planning Board for review because it is a zoning issue. The Board would not be required to make a recommendation related to animal control aspects. However, they could do so because of the direct relationship between the two. Vice Chair Lovell suggested the Board could recommend approval of the proposed ordinance, with the provision that staff research guidelines related to the care of chickens and propose appropriate amendments to Section 5.05 of the Edmonds Municipal Code. Mr. Chave reminded the Board that they have not conducted a public hearing on the proposed amendment. He suggested the Board allow staff time to review Section 5.05 and recommend appropriate changes. While the Board would not be required to conduct a hearing on proposed changes to Section 5.05, they could be advertised as part of the proposed zoning code amendments. Board Member Stewart pointed out that the City of Seattle recently amended their code to allow chickens in single-family zones. She suggested staff review their newly adopted language for additional guidance. Mr. Chave agreed that staff would update the draft ordinance and present it to the Board at a future meeting along with additional research as to what might be appropriate to supplement the existing animal control regulations. PUBLIC HEARING ON EDMONDS PLANNING BOARD’S PROCESS AND NAMING RECOMMENDATION FOR THE NEW PARK IN SOUTH EDMONDS Mr. McIntosh reviewed that through a Park Naming Policy adopted by the City Council on March 24, 2009, the Planning Board was charged with recommending park names for new parks developed in Edmonds. The first park to be named in the City under the new policy is located at the site of the Old Woodway Elementary School in south Edmonds. The park is scheduled to open in July and an opening ceremony is scheduled for 10 a.m. on Saturday, August 8. With the help of the Parks and Recreation staff, naming proposals were solicited throughout the City and 88 names were submitted for consideration by the Planning Board. A subcommittee of the Planning Board was established to examine all the names, and they selected a short list of 12 names and recommended three names to present and discuss during a public hearing before the Planning Board. He noted that if the Board forwards a recommendation to the City Council at the end of the public hearing, the City Council would have an opportunity to review the recommendation and make a final decision on July 21st. This would allow plenty of time for staff to prepare a plaque prior to the opening ceremony on August 8th. Board Member Reed observed that while the adopted Park Naming Policy does not require the City Council to hold an additional hearing before making their final decision, they certainly have the option of doing so. Cheryl Clarke, Edmonds, said she lives in the southwest part of Edmonds, and she thanked the City for purchasing the school property for a beautiful park. She also thanked the Parks Department for taking into consideration the suggestions provided by citizens who live in the area. She expressed thanks to the Engineering Department for working with the property owners to address flood issues that have existed since the neighborhood was annexed into Edmonds in 1995. It is anticipated that the infiltration system that was installed underneath the new park would resolve the problem. Ms. Clarke asked that the Board recommend to the City Council that the new park be named after Dr. Robert O. Hickman, who has dedicated much of his life to the Edmonds Community. He has been a caregiver and mentor to her family for many years, as well as to many other families in the community. When he developed the Hickman Catheter, it was intended to help people who needed medical treatment have a better quality of life and not for fame or monetary gain. He never applied for a patent or received any money for it. Packet Page 92 of 407 APPROVED Planning Board Minutes July 8, 2009 Page 4 Ms. Clarke said that many people in the community do not even realize that Dr. Hickman and his wife, Lucille have lived in the area for many years. They probably would not recognize him as a man who has done so much for others. Now he continues to serve others and exemplifies in quiet ways the joy and satisfaction that can come from serving others. She said it has been a privilege for her family to know Dr. Hickman and his wife. They have continued their ongoing contribution to the community, and he is not even aware that his name ahs been submitted as a possible name for the new park. Naming the park after Dr. Hickman would be a wonderful legacy for the many gifts he and his wife have given the community. Allen Doman, Edmonds, asked that the Planning Board recommend naming the new park after an individual rather than a geographic or other concept. He noted that of the three names that have been put forth by the subcommittee, only one is after an individual. He recommended the park be named Hickman Park. He noted that a lot of public information about Dr. Hickman and his career can be found in his University of Washington Alumnus Profile. He said he knows Dr. Hickman as a man, father, citizen, friend and long-time member of the community. He noted that Dr. Hickman raised his family just a few blocks from the new park location, and he has devoted 1,000’s of hours to volunteer community service; sometimes as a worker in the trenches, but often with heavy leadership responsibilities. He twice served as a bishop in his church congregation, and he was an ecclesiastical leader for a large church group in Snohomish County for nearly 10 years. Later, he served abroad in church activities in Haiti, and he also served at the BYU Center in Jerusalem. Mr. Doman said that over 30 years ago, Dr. Hickman was the attending physician when his son passed away, and he provided professional and human therapy to him and his family. A few years later, one of his own children passed away, so he knows what others feel and experience. He has made and continues to make countless visits to friends who are ill. Last year when his wife was seriously ill, Dr. Hickman made an unsolicited visit to the hospital. As he entered the ICU and walked to where his wife was being treated, doctors and nurses recognized and acknowledged him with great regard and respect. He has humbly told people that they had to call the catheter something so they named it after him because they didn’t think it would work. Mr. Doman summarized that he would like the City of Edmonds to recognize the accomplishments and service of Dr. Hickman by naming the park after him. Roger Hertrich, Edmonds, said he was heavily involved in the siting for a much bigger park than the one that was actually constructed. He suggested that a good name for the much smaller park would be “no adult park.” He pointed out that while the previous speakers had many good things to say about Dr. Hickman, it is important to note that he actually lives in Woodway and never lived in Edmonds. Therefore, his name is not as significant in this situation as someone else who has or does live in Edmonds. He suggested the park be named Petso Park, after Lora Petso, who has been more active than anyone else in the community in trying to save the whole park. She is a great lady who is still active in the City. Naming the park after her would be appropriate to recognize her effort to save the park for the citizens. Alvin Rutledge, Edmonds, expressed his opinion that all 88 of the nominations should be recognized and forwarded to the City Council for consideration rather than just the three names recommended by the subcommittee. He observed that the significant number of nominations shows how much citizen interest in the park there is. Colin Southcote-Want, Edmonds, said he was disappointed to see the three names recommended by the subcommittee: South Edmonds Community Park, Cherry Blossom Park, and Hickman Park. He felt the subcommittee’s recommendation showed very little imagination, and none of the proposed names provide a sense for where the park is located. While the first two speakers provided emotional presentations in favor of naming the park after Dr. Hickman, he was surprised to find out that Dr. Hickman has never lived in Edmonds. While the nomination for “Hickman Park” included a great right up on Dr. Hickman, it carefully avoided mentioning the fact that he doesn’t live in Edmonds. This information should have been made available up front. Mr. Southcote-Want recalled that a year ago the Seattle area received a new professional soccer team, and the new owners proposed three potential new names, which did not include “Sounders.” When they put the names out for a vote, over 50% of those who participated in the vote wrote in the name “Sounders.” The owners listened to the people who voted. He expressed his belief that the list provided by staff did not do justice to the citizen nominations. He distributed a separate copy of the various names that were nominated. He observed that 34 of the nominations were for names associated with the Robin Hood Theme, 16 of the nominations were for names associated with other local themes, and 11 were associated with Packet Page 93 of 407 APPROVED Planning Board Minutes July 8, 2009 Page 5 park features. Nearly 50% of the people who submitted nominations wanted a Robin Hood Themed name, and he urged the Board to listen to the people. Mr. Southcote-Want observed that the neighborhood immediately to the north of the new park is named Sherwood Village, and there are a number of street names throughout the area that are related to the Robin Hood Theme. People feel very strongly that a Robin Hood Theme would be most appropriate for the new park. He noted that only one of the nominations referred to “Southwest Community Park, and only three made reference to the cherry tree or cherry blossoms. He suggested that if the Board does not recommend a name that is related to the Robin Hood Theme, they would be ignoring what the people have asked for. Rob Trahms, Edmonds, said he is excited about the new park, and he congratulated the Parks Department on their efforts. They did a fantastic job of soliciting input and designing the park. He also recognized the efforts of Claude ?? who was instrumental in the park design. While he would have preferred an 11-acre park, the 5.5 acre park is good the way it has been designed and developed. He said he was disappointed in the three names recommended by the subcommittee. None of the proposed names recognize how the park came about and the enormous amount of citizen involvement that took place. While he does not have any suggestions for what the name should be, he observed that a large percentage of the nominations were related to the Robin Hood Theme. He said his only concern is that the park not be named Sherwood Park, since it would be easily confused with Sherwood Elementary School. He encouraged the Board to find a way to recognize citizen involvement. He summarized that if it had not been for outpouring of community involvement to work countless hours with the City and school district, the project would not likely have moved forward. It is important to recognize that good things can happen when citizens get involved. Jan Robertson, Edmonds, praised Brian McIntosh and the remainder of the Parks, Recreation and Cultural Services Department staff. The successful neighborhood meetings allowed the neighbors an opportunity to voice their concerns and desires for the Park, and City staff listened and made themselves available to answer their questions. For many years the City has been criticized because it appeared their emphasis was on the bowl area, and this new park is a beautiful addition to South Edmonds. THE PUBLIC PORTION OF THE HEARING WAS CLOSED. Board Member Clarke expressed appreciation for the public’s participation. He observed that those who have reviewed the list of 88 nominations will realize that a number of the names associated with the Sherwood or Robin Hood Theme were submitted without any justification as to why they would be appropriate for the new park. Five or six of the nominations were grouped together and appeared as though someone was trying to “stuff” the ballot box to create random names associated with Sherwood. He said he attended Woodway Elementary School, as well as other schools in the area, while he lived in the Lake Ballinger area. Board Member Clarke agreed that Sherwood Forest has a name recognition in the community, but the most recently named institutions in that area all have the name “Woodway.” For example, Woodway Elementary School was created in the 1950’s, and Woodway High School in 1969. When Woodway Elementary was closed when two other schools were constructed, people petitioned the Edmonds School District to rename the SnoLine Elementary School to Woodway Elementary School. People who lived in the area prior to 1995 when it was annexed into the City of Edmonds have often stated that while their address is in Edmonds, they do not live in Edmonds. He took offense that people who claim they don’t live in Edmonds now want to participate in the process of naming the new park. He encouraged the citizens to carefully review the Park Naming Policy and its associated criteria. He noted that one of the criteria specifically states that while serving in public office, public officials should not be considered candidates for park names. He noted that Lora Petso has served on the City Council and she has announced plans to run again. Board Member Clarke suggested it would be difficult to choose between the numerous nominations that were related to the Sherwood theme. For example, Robin Hood Lanes is located in Westgate and Friar Tuck Restaurant is in the bowling alley. However, neither of them are in the Sherwood Neighborhood. He suggested Firdale Village is as much identified with this area as Sherwood Forest, and so is Forest Glen. There is a huge population of neighborhoods with these types of names, and for this reason, he felt it would be best to name the park after a concept of service and an individual who lives in the area. Packet Page 94 of 407 APPROVED Planning Board Minutes July 8, 2009 Page 6 He noted that Dr. Hickman’s address is Edmonds, Washington, and when he tells people where he lives, it is in Edmonds. His children attended school at Woodway Elementary and Dr. Hickman and his wife, Lucille, were co-presidents of the PTA for a while. Board Member Clarke observed that people in the cancer or kidney community know and revere the name Hickman without even knowing Dr. Hickman. The Hickman Catheter is a life-saving, quality-of-life medical device, and the spirit behind it has been well recognized. He noted the many letters of support the Board received for naming the park after Dr. Hickman, yet there were few letters in support of the other nominations. While he appreciates the citizen comments, he noted that many of them did not address the criteria outlined in the Park Naming Policy, which are very specific and provide opportunities to name parks after events and individuals. There is nothing in the criteria that says the individual must live in Edmonds. He specifically noted that Criteria F states that the quality of the contribution should be considered along with the length of service and that the person making the recommendation should fully substantiate the individual’s contribution. He reviewed that Dr. and Mrs. Hickman are in their 80’s, and they have been proved and tempered throughout their life. He does not think Dr. Hickman’s name would ever bring tarnish to the park, the citizens or the community. Board Member Stewart thanked the citizens for participating in the hearing. She noted that the Board is new to the responsibility of participating in the park naming process. She said she does not live in the neighborhood adjacent to the park, so she does not understand the dynamics associated with the park. She recalled the subcommittee struggled with the names of all of the surrounding neighborhoods and wanted to be fair. They suggested the name “South Edmonds Community Park because it seemed to reflect the community, which is what the park is really about. The subcommittee considered the fact that there were a lot of Robin Hood Themed names, but there was a consensus that it may not be a good idea for another themed name, particularly because of the history related to political correctness. She said she appreciates Board Member Clarke’s comments and observations from living in the area for a long time. Board Member Reed explained that when the subcommittee met to review the list of names and narrow it down to three, they also discussed the idea of recommending some type of plaque to recognize the community group that worked so hard to get the park established. He noted that one suggested name was J.P. Patches. Although the subcommittee ultimately decided not to recommend that name for the park, as a whole, they felt it would be appropriate to place a plaque or sign in the children’s play area to acknowledge his contribution to children. They also discussed the contributions of Police Chief David Stern, and they suggested the City consider recognizing him in connection with the public safety complex. He noted that South Edmonds Community Park was not one of the nominated names, but South East Family Park was. The subcommittee felt “family” would too narrowly define what the use of the park would be, so they created the name South Edmonds Community Park. The subcommittee also discussed that Cherry Blossom Park could be an appropriate name given the substantial community effort to save the large cherry tree on the park site. Board Member Reed agreed with Board Member Clarke that Hickman Park would be an appropriate name for the park, and it doesn’t really matter whether or not Dr. Hickman lives in Edmonds. BOARD MEMBER CLARKE MOVED THE PLANNING BOARD RECOMMEND TO THE CITY COUNCIL FOR FINAL ADOPTION THE PERMANENT PARK NAME OF HICKMAN PARK, FOR THE NEW PARK LOCATED AT THE SITE OF THE OLD WOODWAY ELEMENTARY SCHOOL, AND THE PLAY AREA LOCATED AT THE NORTHEAST PORTION OF THE PARK BE NAMED J.P. PATCHES PLAY AREA. BOARD MEMBER GUENTHER SECONDED THE MOTION. Board Member Clarke recalled that J. P. Patches was the Grand Marshall for the Edmonds 4th of July Parade this past year. He noted that Mr. Patches has been recognized throughout the United States for his creative children’s program that began in 1958 on KIRO Television. The show was on the air until 1981. Mr. Patches lived in unincorporated Snohomish County south of the park, and he always called Edmonds is home. However, he didn’t become a resident of Edmonds until 1995 when his neighborhood was annexed. He still works in the community, and he particularly loves Children’s Hospital. He has been a public servant who has dedicated his life to making others smile. He encouraged the Board Members to visit his website to learn more about his life. He was recognized by the City of Seattle as the Man of the Year and in the Fremont Community with a statue. He suggested it would be appropriate that the play area, which is designed to bring joy and laughter to families, be named after J.P. Patches in recognition of his life of service. Packet Page 95 of 407 APPROVED Planning Board Minutes July 8, 2009 Page 7 Board Member Reed suggested it would also be appropriate to forward a copy of the subcommittee’s email memorandum in which they narrowed the list of 88 nominations down to 12 and then recommended three for the Board’s consideration. The memorandum also provided additional comments such as a plaque to recognize the community for their significant contribution, naming the children’s play area after J.P. Patches, and recognizing Police Chief David Stern in connection with the public safety complex. BOARD MEMBER REED MOVED THAT THE MOTION BE AMENDED TO ALSO FORWARD THE ENTIRE LIST OF NOMINATIONS AND THE EMAIL MEMORANDUM FROM THE SUBCOMITTEE DATED JUNE 24, 2009, TO THE CITY COUNCIL. BOARD MEMBER STEWART SECONDED THE MOTION. THE MOTION TO AMEND THE MAIN MOTION WAS APPROVED 5-0-1, WITH VICE CHAIR LOVELL ABSTAINING. THE MAIN MOTION WAS APPROVED AS AMENDED BY A VOTE OF 5-0-1, WITH VICE CHAIR LOVELL ABSTAINING. SUSTAINABILITY DISCUSSION: CITY FIBER OPTIC OPPORTUNITIES Carl Nelson, Chief Information Officer, advised that he has participated on the Community Technology Advisory Committee (CTAC) for the past two years, and they have had frequent discussions regarding the City’s future vision for fiber optics. He advised that he recently made a presentation to the Washington Association of Telecommunications Regulators regarding his effort to work with Snohomish County and neighboring cities to purchase fiber optic cable to connect cities with Snohomish County and each other. He advised that the ability to connect intergovernmental agencies could be revenue positive for the City of Edmonds. He explained that until ten years ago, the City had the ability to resell telecommunications capabilities, but the legislature inadvertently eliminated this option. The City is currently seeking the court’s opinion on the City’s ability to resell telecommunications capability in areas where the City currently has excess capacity, and the case would be heard sometime in August. He noted that several others cities are also interested in the outcome of the case. He advised that the City has purchased and/or been given fiber optic assets that run from the ferry terminal to Highway 99, south to the County Line and to the Westin Building in downtown Seattle. These assets could have an enormous economic value to the City, depending on the court’s determination. Chair Bowman explained that as part of the Board’s discussion regarding sustainability, they are interested in learning more about economically viable ways to generate more revenue for the City. He asked if the City’s current fiber optic assets would allow them to attract high tech companies. Vice Chair Lovell reminded the Board that the City Council has asked them to undertake a study and make a formal report in December that includes some specific suggestions and strategies to increase the City’s revenue base and improve their long-term economic viability. He invited Mr. Nelson to provide a written document that explains and underscores in clear terms the benefits of the programs he is working to implement. The document should clearly identify the benefits to the tax payers and the City’s economy. It should also provide information about how citizens and businesses can learn more about the City’s fiber optic assets and their associated costs. Board Member Reed requested more information about the potential benefits and expenses to the City if they prevail in the court case. Mr. Nelson answered that the City has hired a consultant to work out the numbers, and the City’s goal is to leverage their fiber optic assets to their best advantage. In addition, he said he would continue to explore options for several cities in Snohomish County to connect with the County’s network room. Chair Bowman suggested that Mr. Nelson report back to the Board after the court has issued a decision. He said the Board would be interested in learning more about other cities that are in a similar position to leverage fiber optic opportunities as a profit center. He emphasized that the Board has the dual task of addressing both environmental and economic sustainability. He suggested that fiber optics could be one venue that provides a low carbon footprint, but a high return on the City’s investment. Mr. Nelson pointed out that other entities in the area (ports, school districts, etc.) have this same type of capability. It is important to get the pipe opened between the various entities so that trades and exchanges can occur. He summarized that the City’s current fiber optic capability is not being fully utilized because of existing legislation, and Packet Page 96 of 407 APPROVED Planning Board Minutes July 8, 2009 Page 8 changes are needed to open these opportunities. However, he emphasized that capacity has increased dramatically over the past five years. Board Member Stewart asked if it is the City’s desire to own the fiber optic pipe. Mr. Nelson said it is important that the City own at least some portion of the pipe. Board Member Stewart observed that the City is spending a lot of money on a court case that many other jurisdictions would benefit from. Mr. Nelson agreed. He noted that Seattle and Bellevue have offered to help pay for an appeal, but the case would not go beyond the scope of the City unless it is challenged in the State Supreme Court. Board Member Stewart stressed the importance of keeping track of all the expenses involved in the court case. It will be important to show the citizens of Edmonds the return on their dollar to explore these options. She said she hopes the return will be substantial enough to really help the City’s current financial situation. Mr. Nelson said he foresees a significant benefit to the City in obtaining the capability to resell telecommunications capabilities. The City currently has excess capacity that could be used to generate revenue. He emphasized that intergovernmental cooperation provides an opportunity to avoid some of the costs the City would otherwise incur. SUSTAINABILITY DISCUSSION: MEETING WITH COMMUNITY TRANSIT ON THEIR PLANNING, OPERATIONS AND PRIORITIES Roland Behee, Supervisor for Strategic Planning, Community Transit, indicated he was present to provide information about Community Transit’s (CT) new rapid transit (SWIFT) program on Highway 99. He distributed a map showing the service that is currently offered throughout the City of Edmonds. He noted that, at this time, ¼ mile is the commonly accepted distance that a person is willing to walk to access bus service. He observed that CT currently offers a significant amount of bus service along Highway 99, with connections to the Edmonds Ferry Terminal, downtown Edmonds and other areas of the community. Mr. Behee reported that CT is in the final stage of implementing the rapid transit program (SWIFT), and they have conducted numerous public outreach meetings in the community. In addition, they have worked with City staff regarding station locations and names. The SWIFT program would provide a 17-mile long connection between Everett and the Aurora Transit Station in Shoreline, with 24 stations (12 northbound and 12 southbound). The program would utilize the infrastructure investments that already exist along the corridor to provide rapid, frequent, bi-directional service at 10-minute frequencies throughout the majority of the day. The program would provide new 60-foot articulated vehicles, and CT is currently in the process of commissioning the new vehicles and getting them ready for service in the fall. Mr. Behee provided a drawing to illustrate the design of the new stations and noted that a new station is currently being developed at the intersection of 196th Street and Highway 99. It will include a 10-inch elevated curb, which will provide for nearly level boarding. The stations would provide protection from the weather and outdoor fair collection machines in addition to the smart card readers. Vice Chair Lovell noted that the shelter design identifies a glass roof with a reversed slope and drainage to the center to collect rain water. He observed that it is likely people would toss items onto the roof, and they would become stuck in the gutters. He asked how CT plans to resolve this problem. Mr. Behee answered that the stations would be maintained on a daily basis by CT’s internal facilities crew. Chair Bowman asked if the stations would be handicapped assessable. Mr. Behee replied that the pavement would be marked to show customers with mobility devices where they need to be when the buses stops. The same is true for bicycles. He emphasized that the new stations would provide for much faster loading. Mr. Behee reviewed that the SWIFT Project is anticipated to cost approximately $32 million, which equates to about $1.91 million per mile. In contrast, a rail program would cost between $200 to 250 million per mile to construct. He noted the project is fully funded by a mixture of local, state and federal dollars. CT would begin testing, training and public outreach programs in the summer of 2009, and they anticipate starting the service in November of 2009. Mr. Behee referred to the Transit Competitive Index that was prepared by the Puget Sound Regional Council to project regional transit demand for the four county region. As opposed to the I-5 market, which has a strong intercounty peak period market, the Highway 99 market is much more diverse and reflective of the large residential community and mixture of uses Packet Page 97 of 407 APPROVED Planning Board Minutes July 8, 2009 Page 9 that exist. People travel all day long along the corridor for a mixture of purposes, and a strong market is contained within the Everett market and a southern market comprised of Edmonds, Shoreline and Lynnwood. During the peak periods of time there is strong demand, but the overall pattern during the day is strong to serve the mixture of uses. Chair Bowman asked how many bus changes would be required if a person were traveling from Everett or north Edmonds to downtown Seattle. Mr. Behee said it would be possible to get from Everett to downtown Seattle using two or three buses, depending on the time of day and final destination. Mr. Behee referred to a 2008 survey that was conducted to establish a baseline for the origin and destination of people riding buses on Highway 99. He noted that a similar survey would be conducted in 2013 to evaluate the change. He noted that, at this time, there is a real diversity of travel taking place throughout the day on Highway 99. The majority of people using the service on the corridor are walking from their places of residence to catch the bus; it is not really a park and ride market. Mr. Behee said modeling predicts that ridership would increase 25% in the first year (2010) and 50% by the fourth year (2013). Modeling also predicts that vehicle miles traveled would be reduced 3.2 million in the first year and 7 million by the fourth year. Chair Bowman inquired if the existing buses on Highway 99 are running at capacity. Mr. Behee said the buses carried approximately 12 million people in 2008. If every seat were filled on every trip, the number would be much larger. Chair Bowman asked if there is significant capacity for additional growth. Mr. Behee replied that while there is additional capacity on an all-day basis, there is very little additional capacity during peak travel times. Many of the runs to King County during peak hours are full and have standing room only. He observed that ridership increased dramatically when gas prices peaked. He explained that their programs are typically designed to meet peak demand, and he acknowledged there is still capacity to grow on many of the local routes. Board Member Reed requested more information about CT’s plan to reduce vehicle miles traveled. Mr. Behee advised that CT has been working with the City of Edmonds Transportation staff to develop a 20-year long-range vision for major corridors such as Highway 99, as well as other primary arterial networks in the City. Future transit emphasis would focus on these areas. They are working to identify future markets for service and are coordinating with the Washington Department of Transportation and local jurisdictions to focus land use and density in certain areas where adequate infrastructure is available to accommodate additional bus service. He noted that 196th Street is a transit-emphasis corridor, and CT is researching opportunities for providing rapid transit service at some point in the future. However, this would be a joint partnership decision between the local jurisdictions and CT. He emphasized that now is the time to start talking about land use planning and preparing the market for this eventuality. He reviewed that the current long-range plan provides the following policy direction:  Service design guidelines should link transit performance and development practices.  Guidelines should suggest that corridors/areas that best incorporate transit-oriented community design practices will best support service and service improvement.  Guidelines should not necessary imply that lower performing corridors will have no service, but priority for new services will be given to areas with the greatest transit trip production.  Guidelines should emphasis efficient and sustainable service in corridors that produce the most transit ridership.  Community Transit does not want to assume a regulatory role in land use/development actions but wants to work with and support their partner’s regulatory efforts. Next, Mr. Behee reviewed the draft service design guidelines for the bus rapid transit corridor/station area development as follows:  About 7,540 persons and jobs within ½ mile of the stations (about 15 persons/jobs per acre).  Encourage mixed use with a balance of jobs and housing (including low income).  Work to establish parking market and encourage people to get out of their cars. Consider options for no minimum parking requirement and design parking to be behind or next to businesses rather than in front so pedestrians can get off buses and directly access businesses. Packet Page 98 of 407 APPROVED Planning Board Minutes July 8, 2009 Page 10  Provide a complete pedestrian network, particularly through development from residential areas behind frontage, and separation from vehicles.  Prioritize infrastructure improvements and use existing business access transit lanes, transit signal priority, access consolidation, etc. to allow priority access for buses through the congestion. Mr. Behee advised that the southern terminal at the Aurora Transit Station would provide crossing platforms once Metro’s rapid transit program has been implemented. There ould be a common island that allows people to switch from CT to Metro. In addition, CT has supported the City of Shoreline’s recommendation that Metro consider moving the transit center to a more central location. From an economic development and ridership perspective, CT believes the station would be better placed near commercial activity or mixed-use development. Board Member Stewart recalled that at a previous presentation before the City Council, CT mentioned how easy it would be for bikers to board the SWIFT buses. She emphasized the importance of also considering how bikers can better access the bus stations. Mr. Behee said he is a daily bicycle commuter so the SWIFT buses will become his rainy day option. Board Member Stewart said she is excited about the SWIFT Program and if they can tie it in with development along the corridor it would be a win/win situation. Board Member Clarke recalled Mr. Behee’s earlier statement that CT does not want to assume a regulatory role in land use and development actions. However, he asked if CT would recommend higher density multi-family residential zones along major transportation corridors in Edmonds such as 76th Avenue West. Mr. Behee observed that local service is currently provided on 76th Avenue West, and it would provide a good connection to the SWIFT service on Highway 99. However, it has not been identified as a regional transit emphasis corridor. The route would be a local level corridor that would certainly benefit from an increase in density if that was the desire of the City. Community Transit has been very upfront in providing much more individual communication about this type of development on the transit emphasis corridors where they anticipate potential bus rapid transit service at some point in the future. However, he does not want to create the impression that 76th Avenue West would be a good location for a rapid transit corridor. Board Member Clarke referred to Greenwood Avenue in Seattle and Shoreline and observed that over the past 10 to 20 years the arterial has changed in land use, zoning, building height, and density. Now there is a lot of mixed-use condominium development and many commuters use public transportation. He asked Mr. Behee if there are any areas in Edmonds where this type of evolution could occur if land use and zoning was different. Mr. Behee answered that he does not foresee a rapid transit program on any other streets in Edmonds in the near future beyond Highway 99 and 196th Street. He noted that CT has not provided a connection between 196th Street and the Edmonds Ferry Terminal, and they have left it up to the City to make this decision. The route that connects 196th to the northeast portion of downtown Edmonds would also be a candidate for more intense development. Another corridor that has possibilities is SR 104 coming from the south, which is more of a peak period commuter corridor rather than all day bi-directional service. He emphasized there is a great opportunity for City staff to work with CT staff to identify opportunities for greater density. Mr. Chave suggested Mr. Behee elaborate on his earlier statement regarding the ¼ mile service radius. Mr. Behee explained that ¼ mile is the generally accepted distance that a person is willing to walk to get to a bus stop. About 50% to 60% of riders have indicated they would be willing to walk ¼ mile, and only 20% to 30% indicated they would be willing to walk 1/3 mile to reach a bus stop. Not very many people indicated their willingness to walk ½ mile to reach a bus stop, but the survey also indicated that frequency and reliability of the service would increase the distance people would be willing to walk. People are typically willing to walk further to get to a service that is more frequent and dependable. Because the SWIFT Program would provide a faster and more reliable service, it would also provide a better sense of place and security for the customers. Community Transit anticipates there would be reasonable redevelopment potential within a ½ mile radius of a rapid transit station. Chair Bowman invited Mr. Behee to email any data he has on how many gallons of fuel would be saved by taking public transit. Mr. Behee said he could also provide information related to carbon footprint, etc. Mr. Chave requested further documentation on the ¼ versus ½ mile radius. Packet Page 99 of 407 APPROVED Planning Board Minutes July 8, 2009 Page 11 REVIEW OF EXTENDED AGENDA Mr. Chave reviewed that the agenda for the June 22nd meeting would include a public hearing for a rezone application for property in the Five Corners Neighborhood. It would also include an update on the code rewrite project and the Highway 99 Task Force would be present to provide an update on their recent efforts. The Board agreed to schedule a special work session, perhaps on August 19th or 26th to continue their sustainability discussion. Chair Bowman agreed to email Board Members to identify a specific date for the work session. PLANNING BOARD CHAIR COMMENTS Chair Bowman announced that he would be participating in the STP bike ride again this year. PLANNING BOARD MEMBER COMMENTS Board Member Guenther explained that his project in White Salmon is getting to the point where he doesn’t have to spend all day Wednesday on site. Therefore, he is able to return early enough to attend the Board meetings. He said he was glad the Board recommended that the new park be named after Dr. Hickman. He expressed his belief that recognizing people for their public service is an appropriate thing to do. ADJOURNMENT The Board meeting was adjourned at 9:27 p.m. Packet Page 100 of 407 City of Edmonds Park Naming Policy Purpose The purpose of the policy is to establish consistent standard procedures and guidelines for the naming of public parklands owned and/or operated by the City of Edmonds. The renaming of parks is strongly discouraged. Policy The naming of City parks, park areas and park facilities shall be the function of the City Council with assistance from Edmonds Planning Board and the Parks, Recreation and Cultural Services Department. Diversity, balance and creativity will be sought during adoption of names. The name selected for a site will be recommended to the Edmonds City Council for approval or amendment. City Council has final authority to approve or amend any recommendation. Objectives A. Provide name identification for individual parks, park areas or park facilities. B. Provide criteria for the process of naming parks, park areas or park facilities. C. Provide opportunities for public input including a public hearing at Planning Board. D. Ensure that the naming of parks, park areas, or park facilities is controlled by the Edmonds City Council through recommendations from the Planning Boarding.. Criteria The naming of parks, park areas, and park facilities should be approached with caution, patience, and deliberation. Names submitted for consideration should provide some form of individual identity in relation to the following: A. The geographic location of the facility; this includes descriptive names. B. An outstanding feature of the facility. C. An adjoining subdivision, street, school, or natural feature. No park shall be given the same name as an existing school site or public facility, except where the sites abut one another. Packet Page 101 of 407 D. A commonly recognized historical event, group, organization or individual (living or deceased). E. An individual or organization that contributed significantly to the acquisition or development of the facility to be named. This can include either a deed or substantial monetary contribution, or contribution toward acquisition and/or development of the park or park facility (typically not less than 50 percent of the value of the property or improvements). F. Outstanding accomplishments by an individual for the good of the community. Quality of the contribution should be considered along with the length of service by the individual – this to be fully substantiated by person making recommendation. G. Any individual who provided an exceptional service in the interest of the park system as a whole. Typically, while serving in a public office, public officials should not be considered as a candidate for naming. Donated Land Parks and park facilities that are donated to the City can be named by deed restriction by the donor (i.e. Hutt Park in Edmonds). The naming and acceptance of land is subject to recommendation by the Planning Board and approval by City Council. Naming rights are not guaranteed if the donation of parkland is a dedication as required by the subdivision ordinance (parkland dedication). Naming Process Parks Department staff will notify the Planning Board about proposed naming opportunities. The recommendation of the Planning Board will be subject to final approval or amendment by City Council action. 1. Temporary Naming In the case of a new project, a temporary name will be designated by the City staff for identification during acquisition and/or development of the park area or park facility. Because temporary designations tend to be retained, the naming process for a new park should be carried out as quickly as possible after its acquisition or development. 2. Permanent Naming Citizen involvement in the naming process is encouraged and may be accomplished in a variety of ways throughout the naming process. A. Individuals, groups and/or organizations interested in proposing a name for an existing un-named park area or park facility may do so in writing Packet Page 102 of 407 using a “Park Naming Form” that outlines the naming criteria. These will be presented to the Parks, Recreation & Cultural Services Department for consideration by the Planning Board. B. A variety of means to encourage public participation to submit a name (citizen contests, recommendations from previous owners, historical review of the site, etc.) may be implemented by the Parks, Recreation & Cultural Services Department at the request of the Planning Board. The “Park Naming Form” will be available through the City website, copies available at City Hall and the Anderson Center, and publicity through Public Service Announcements, Channel 21, and other means. C. The Planning Board will conduct a public hearing on the proposed names.. D. The Planning Board will make a naming recommendation to the City Council for final adoption or amendment. 3. Park Renaming Critical examination will be conducted to ensure that renaming the park will not diminish the original justification for the name or the prior contributors. Renaming will follow the same procedures as naming the park. A. Only parks and facilities named for geographic location, outstanding feature or subdivision should be considered for renaming. Parks that have been named by deed restriction shall not be considered for renaming. B. Parks and facilities named after individuals shall not be changed unless it is found that because of the individual’s character the continued use of their name would not be in the best interest of the community.

Airing Interviews of Candidates / City of Edmonds Government Channel Edmonds City Council Meeting Date:08/04/2009 Submitted By:Stephen Clifton, Community Services Time:10 Minutes Department:Community Services Type:Action Review Committee: Committee Action: Information Subject Title Airing interviews of candidates in the City of Edmonds August 18, 2009 Primary on City of Edmonds government channel. Recommendation from Mayor and Staff City administration is seeking Council authorization to air Edmonds City Council candidate interviews. Previous Council Action Narrative In the past, the Edmonds City Council has provided input regarding policies related to airing information on the City’s Government Channel and the establishment of ground rules for candidate forums aired on this type of channel. Before making a final administrative decision on whether to air candidate interviews on the City’s government channel, City administration wants to first consider input from the Council. I was contacted by former Council member Mauri Moore on July 28, 2009 who stated that Edmonds Community College recently conducted interviews of all candidates participating in the August 18, 2009 City of Edmonds Council primary (positions #2 and #3). The interviews were conducted by Dick Van Hollebeke and Ms. Moore and last approximately 36 - 37 minutes for each primary position. Ms. Moore asked whether the interviews can be aired on the City’s government channel prior to the August primary. In order to determine whether the interview content is neutral, I asked the following questions of Ms. Moore and Dan Dootson, Edmonds Community College Visual Communications Specialist: Were all candidates asked the same questions? Answer: Yes For each question asked, was each candidate given the same amount of time to respond? Answer: Yes with an official timer monitoring their response Did each candidate have the ability to offer opening remarks; were they given the same amount of time to respond? Packet Page 108 of 407 time to respond? Answer: Yes Did candidates receive questions in advance of the interview? Answer: No Was editing involved? Answer: No At present, neither the Council's adopted rules regarding the City’s government channel or its restrictions on campaign use of public facilities specifically address this type of issue. According to the City Attorney, given responses to the questions above, the interviews could be considered neutral in scope, and a policy decision about whether to air the interviews on the City's government channel rests with the Council. Prior to airing, City staff would review the interviews to ensure that all candidates were asked the same questions, given the same amount of time to respond, and offered the same time for introductory and/or closing remarks.

Comprehensive Transportation Plan Update Public Hearing Edmonds City Council Meeting Date:08/04/2009 Submitted By:Conni Curtis, Engineering Submitted For:Robert English Time:45 Minutes Department:Engineering Type:Action Review Committee: Committee Action: Information Subject Title Public hearing regarding an update of the 2002 Transportation Plan. The amendments in the proposed 2009 Transportation Plan would: (1) Use a future planning year of 2025 instead of 2022. (2) Base concurrency analysis and recommendations on updated citywide travel demand forecasting model and updated level of service standards on state routes. (3) Incorporate results and recommendations of safety studies that have been completed between 2002 and 2009. (4) Give stronger emphasis to non-motorized transportation projects. The range of alternatives to be considered consist of about 25% of planned costs instead of about 5% in the 2002 Plan. (5) Utilize cost projections reflecting higher per unit prices to reflect trends and project costs. (6) Adjust references to the Edmonds Crossing Multi-Modal Plan. No City expenditures are proposed but the item is retained as a long-term project. (7) Update the traffic impact fee, increasing the fee from $764 per trip to $1,040 per trip. (8) Add a traffic calming program and ADA ramp transition plan as additional programs. Recommendation from Mayor and Staff Council approve the 2009 Comprehensive Transportation Plan and begin an investigation in 2010 for additional revenue from the Transportation Benefit District. Previous Council Action On February 19, 2008, Council authorized the Mayor to sign a Professional Services Agreement with ICF Jones & Stokes for the update of the Comprehensive Transportation Plan. On June 3, 2008, the consultant and staff updated City Council on the progress of the Plan. On May 12, 2009, a brief overview of the Plan and the City’s current financial situation with regard to funding proposed transportation improvement projects were discussed at the CSDS committee meeting. On July 21, 2009, the 2009 Comprehensive Transportation Plan was presented to Council. Narrative The City of Edmonds is currently in the process of updating the Comprehensive Transportation Packet Page 110 of 407 The City of Edmonds is currently in the process of updating the Comprehensive Transportation Plan. Under the Growth Management Act, the City is required to perform a major update to the plan every six to ten years. Our last major update was prepared in 2002. The plan lists existing transportation conditions for all users (drivers, pedestrians, bikers and transit users) as well as possible improvements to these conditions. The main objective of the Comprehensive Transportation Plan is to identify improvements necessary to provide a system for all modes of transportation that will function safely and efficiently through the year 2025. The Planning Board held a public hearing on June 10, 2009 at which time the Board approved the Draft Comprehensive Transportation Plan and forwarded it to City Council with a recommendation for adoption. The consultant, ICF Jones & Stokes, and City staff have been working on the update over the last year. The consultant will provide a summary of the financial plan, the City's shortfall in transportation funding, and a potential source of new revenue (Transportation Benefit District).

an on-ramp or other entry point. Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) A federal act that was passed in 1990 and amended in 2008. ADA requires jurisdictions to provide accessible sidewalks primarily through the installation of ADA-compliant sidewalk ramps. The design requirements address various areas of concern such as curb alignment with crosswalks, narrower sidewalk width, obstacles such as utility poles, placement of the sidewalk adjacent to the curb, or the slope of the ramps. Deficiencies in any of these areas could render a sidewalk or sidewalk ramp to be unsafe or inaccessible for the handicapped, or those who generally have difficulty walking. Arterial A major street that primarily serves through traffic, but also provides access to abutting properties. Arterials are often divided into principal and minor classifications depending on the number of lanes, connections made, volume of traffic, nature of traffic, speeds, interruptions (access functions), and length. Average Daily Traffic (ADT) The average number of vehicles that travel on a roadway on a typical day. Capacity The maximum sustained traffic flow of a transportation facility under prevailing traffic and roadway conditions in a specified direction. Capital Improvement Program (CIP) A long-range plan established by a city or county that encompasses its vision and future needs for capital facilities, including fire, police, utilities, and transportation. The CIP also establishes the jurisdiction’s project priorities and funding methods. Commute trip reduction (CTR) Efforts related to reducing the proportion of trips made in single- occupancy vehicles during peak commuting hours. CTR efforts may include carpooling, telecommuting, compressed work weeks, or using alternative modes to get to work (e.g. walking or biking). Washington State’s CTR efforts are coordinated through WSDOT and local governments in counties with the highest levels of automobile-related air pollution and traffic congestion. Qualified employers in these counties are required by law to develop a commuter program designed to achieve reductions in vehicle trips. Packet Page 135 of 407 Comprehensive Transportation Plan City of Edmonds x concurrency A requirement established by the Washington State Growth Management Act that adequate infrastructure be planned and financed to support a jurisdiction’s adopted future land use plan. For transportation, adequacy is measured by the impact on a jurisdiction’s roadway and/or intersection LOS. If an impact is anticipated to cause the adopted LOS standard to be exceeded, then the jurisdiction must have a strategy in place to increase capacity or manage demand (or a financial plan to put that strategy in place) within 6 years of the transportation impact. Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) A major agency of the United States Department of Transportation responsible for ensuring that America’s roads and highways continue to be the safest and most technologically up-to-date. Functional classification A roadway category that is based on the types of trips that occur on the roadway, the roadway’s basic purpose, and the level of traffic that the roadway carries. The functional classification of a roadway can range from a freeway to principal arterial to minor arterial to collector to local access. Growth Management Act (GMA) Adopted by the Washington State Legislature in 1990, and subsequently amended to require all cities and counties in the state to do some long-range comprehensive planning. Requirements are more extensive for the largest and fastest-growing counties and cities in the state. Such comprehensive plans must address several required topics, including but not limited to land use, transportation, capital facilities, utilities, housing, etc. The GMA requirements also include guaranteeing the consistency of transportation and capital facilities plans with land use plans. Highways of Statewide Significance Highways identified by the Washington State Transportation Commission that provide significant statewide travel and economic linkages. Level of service (LOS) A measure of how well a roadway or local signalized intersection operates. For roadways, LOS is a measure of traffic congestion based on volume-to-capacity ratios. For local intersections, LOS is based on how long it takes a typical vehicle to clear the intersection. Other criteria also may be used to gauge the operating performance of transit, non-motorized, and other transportation modes. Local Improvement District (LID) Special assessment district in which infrastructure improvements, such as water, sewer, stormwater, or transportation system improvements, will benefit primarily the property owners in the district. Packet Page 136 of 407 Table of Contents August 2009 xi Traffic calming The combination of physical measures and educational efforts to alter driver behavior and improve conditions for non-motorized street users. Physical measures may include bulb-out curb extensions, chicanes, or traffic circles, among other things. Educational efforts may include pavement markings or increased police enforcement. Transportation Analysis Zone (TAZ) Areas with similar land use characteristics that are used in travel demand models to assess traffic conditions and operations. Transportation Benefit District (TBD) A geographic area designated by a jurisdiction that is a means to funding transportation improvement projects; funding sources can include vehicle license fees, property taxes or sales taxes. The City of Edmonds has already enacted a $20 vehicle license fee. Transportation Demand Management (TDM) A set of strategies intended to maximize the efficiency of the transportation network by reducing demand on the system. Examples of TDM strategies are encouraging commuting via bus, rail, bicycle, or walking; managing the available parking supply; or creating a compressed work week. Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) A long-range (6 years) plan established by a city or county that results from the Capital Improvement Program (CIP) process. The TIP establishes the jurisdiction’s transportation deficiencies, project priorities, and possible funding methods. Transportation System Management (TSM) A coordinated approach to the construction, preservation, maintenance, and operations of the transportation network with the goal of maximizing efficiency, safety, and reliability. These activities include making intersection and signal improvements, constructing turn lanes, improving signage and pavement markings, and collecting data to monitor system performance. Travel Demand Forecasting Methods for estimating the desire for travel by potential users of the transportation system, including the number of travelers, the time of day, travel mode, and travel routes. Washington Transportation Plan (WTP) A long-range (20 years) statewide transportation plan adopted by the Washington Transportation Commission. The WTP describes existing transportation conditions in the state, and outlines future transportation needs. Packet Page 137 of 407 Packet Page 138 of 407 August 2009 1-1 Chapter 1. Introduction The purpose of the Comprehensive Transportation Plan (Transportation Plan) is to guide the development of multimodal surface transportation within the City of Edmonds (City) in a manner consistent with the City’s adopted transportation goals, objectives, and policies (presented in Chapter 2). The Transportation Plan serves as the transportation element of the City of Edmonds Comprehensive Plan (Comprehensive Plan). It identifies transportation infrastructure and services needed to support projected land use within the city through the year 2025, in compliance with the State of Washington Growth Management Act (GMA) [RCW 36.70A, 1990, as amended]. Based upon existing and projected future land use and travel patterns, the Transportation Plan describes street, walkway, bikeway, and public transportation infrastructure and services, and provides an assessment of existing and projected future transportation needs. It provides a long- range Capital Improvement Program (CIP) that establishes transportation priorities, addresses transportation deficiencies and guides the development of the six-year Transportation Improvement Program (TIP). The Transportation Plan identifies safety and mobility improvements for streets, walkways, bikeways, neighborhood traffic control, and public transportation, as well as preservation, maintenance, and implementation strategies that include concurrency management and financing. The Transportation Plan establishes direction for development of programs and facilities that address the transportation needs for the city through the year 2025. Purpose of the Transportation Comprehensive Plan Based upon the directives of the City’s adopted transportation goals and policies, as well as the requirements of the GMA, the objectives of the Transportation Plan are as follows: Address the total transportation needs of the city through 2025. Packet Page 139 of 407 Comprehensive Transportation Plan City of Edmonds 1-2 Identify transportation improvements necessary to provide a system that will function safely and efficiently through the year 2025. Ensure consistency with the land use adopted in the adopted 2008 Comprehensive Plan. Contribute to economic growth within the city through an efficient transportation system. Provide cost-effective accessibility for people, goods, and services. Provide travel alternatives that are safe and have convenient access to employment, education, and recreational opportunities for urban and suburban residents in the area. Identify funding needs for identified transportation improvements and the appropriate participation by both the public and private sectors of the local economy. Comply with the requirements of the GMA and State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA). Support improvements to major transportation routes outside the city that will reduce through-traffic in the community. Plan Background Reports, Plans and Records This Transportation Plan integrates the analysis and results of numerous plans and prior reports that have been completed for the City. Information was obtained from the following sources: City of Edmonds Transportation Element. 2002. Previous transportation plan that established citywide transportation goals and policies and infrastructure and service needs, which was updated for this Plan. City of Edmonds Comprehensive Plan. 2008. Current GMA plan that presents the City’s planned future land use through 2025, and plans and policies established by the City to support that land use. Snohomish County Buildable Lands Report. 2008. Identifies where capacity exists to accommodate future planned land use within cities and unincorporated areas located within Snohomish County, including the City of Edmonds. City of Edmonds Community Development Code (ECDC). December 1980, as amended. Provides City zoning and other land use regulations. SR 99 Traffic and Circulation Study. 2006. Assesses traffic conditions on State Route (SR) 99, and recommends safety and mobility improvements to be included in the City TIP. City of Edmonds Walkway Comprehensive Plan. 2002. Evaluates existing sidewalks and pedestrian facilities throughout the City and proposes comprehensive improvements to the walkway system. Packet Page 140 of 407 Introduction August 2009 1-3 City of Edmonds Bikeway Comprehensive Plan. 2000. Evaluates existing bikeways throughout the City, and proposes comprehensive improvements to the bikeway system. Olympic View Drive / 176th Street SW: Intersection Traffic Analysis. 2001. Evaluates traffic flow operations and pedestrian safety and access for the intersection, and makes recommendations for operational and safety improvements. Land Use Review The Edmonds Comprehensive Plan and ECDC guides development and growth within the city. Future transportation infrastructure and service needs identified in this Transportation Plan were established by evaluating the level and pattern of travel demand generated by planned future land use. Future population and employment projections for the region are established by the Puget Sound Regional Council (PSRC). Snohomish County works with local jurisdictions to determine the expected distribution of population and employment between cities and unincorporated county. The transportation analysis presented in this Transportation Plan is based upon these future population and employment projections. Within the City, the allocation of future housing and jobs growth was based upon the County’s “buildable lands” assessment (Snohomish County 2008), which estimates available land capacity for future development, according to the amount of vacant and under-developed (based upon zoning) land. Table 1-1 summarizes the existing and projected future land use growth, based upon these assessments. Table 1-1.

In addition to requiring consistency with the Land Use Element, the GMA requires that the following components be included in transportation elements: Inventory of facilities by mode of transport; Level of service assessment to aid in determining the existing and future operating conditions of the facilities; Proposed actions to bring these deficient facilities into compliance; Traffic forecasts, based upon planned future land use; Identification of infrastructure needs to meet current and future demands; Funding analysis for needed improvements, as well as possible additional funding sources; Identification of intergovernmental coordination efforts; and Identification of demand management strategies as available. [RCW 36.70A.070(6)] In addition to these elements, GMA mandates that development cannot occur unless adequate supporting infrastructure either already exists or is built concurrent with development. In addition to capital facilities, infrastructure may include transit service, Transportation Demand Management (TDM) strategies, or Transportation System Management (TSM) strategies. Under the GMA, local governments and agencies must annually prepare and adopt six-year TIPs. These programs must be consistent with the transportation element of the local comprehensive plan, and other state and regional plans and policies as outlined below. Washington Transportation Plan The Washington Transportation Plan (WTP) presents the State’s strategy for developing budgets and implementing over a 20-year planning horizon. The current WTP was adopted by the Transportation Commission in 2006 and covers the period 2007 to 2026. The WTP contains an overview of the current conditions of the statewide transportation system, and an assessment of the State’s future transportation investment needs. The WTP policy framework sets the course for meeting those future needs. The WTP Prioritized Investment Guidelines are as follows: 1. Preservation 2. Safety 3. Economic Vitality Packet Page 142 of 407 Introduction August 2009 1-5 4. Mobility 5. Environmental Quality and Health PSRC Plans The PSRC is the Regional Transportation Planning Organization for the area that includes Snohomish, King, Pierce, and Kitsap counties, and is responsible for overseeing six-year TIPs within the region. The PSRC works with local jurisdictions to establish regional transportation guidelines and principles, and certifies that the transportation-related provisions within local jurisdictions’ comprehensive plans are consistent with the Regional Transportation Plan and conform to GMA requirements. VISION 2040 VISION 2040 is comprised of the following four parts, developed to help guide the region as it experiences population and employment growth: Part I: Sustainable environment framework – Provides the context for planning, development, and environmental management in the region. This framework describes the role that the environment plays – along with the benefits, challenges, and opportunities it provides – and how it affects prosperity and quality of life. Part II: Regional Growth Strategy – Identifies an approach to promote a focused regional growth pattern. It builds on current growth management plans, and recommits the region to directing future development into the urban growth areas, while focusing new housing and jobs in cities and within a limited number of designated regional growth centers. Focusing growth in urban areas helps to protect natural resources and sensitive environmental areas, encourages a strong economy, provides more housing opportunities for all economic segments of the population, improves regional jobs-housing balance, and minimizes rural residential growth. The Regional Growth Strategy describes the roles of all communities in implementing VISION 2040. Part III: Multicounty planning policies –Adopted under the state’s Growth Management Act, the policies are divided into six major sections: Environment, Development Patterns, Housing, Economy, Transportation, and Public Services. The policies are designed to help achieve the Regional Growth Strategy and address region-wide issues within a collaborative and equitable framework. They provide guidance and direction to regional, county, and local governments on such topics as setting priorities for transportation investment, stimulating economic development, planning for open space, making city and town centers more hospitable for transit and walking, and improving transportation safety and mobility. Multicounty planning policies lay the foundation for securing the necessary funding for services and facilities, and provide direction for more efficient use of public and private investments. Each policy section contains actions that lay out steps the region will need to take to achieve VISION 2040. Packet Page 143 of 407 Comprehensive Transportation Plan City of Edmonds 1-6 Part IV: Implementation – Describes several programs and processes, including a monitoring program that includes tracking action on agreed-upon steps, measuring progress over time, and determining whether the region is achieving desired results. This section includes specific measures that relate to the multicounty planning policies. The multicounty planning policies provide direction and guidance for maintenance, safety, clean transportation, supporting the regional growth strategy, and optimizing travel options. Policies are provided that relate to safety and security, reducing pollution and greenhouse gas emissions, increasing energy efficiency and the use of alternative energy, developing roadways as “complete streets” that accommodate different modes of travel, and advancing alternatives to driving alone. (Puget Sound Regional Council 2008) The City’s next major update to the Comprehensive Plan (due in 2011) will need to demonstrate how it is aligning with the VISION 2040 Regional Growth Strategy, including expanded provisions for addressing health and the built environment, design, and environmental planning (including climate change). The transportation element will be revisited at that time, to ensure consistency with the City’s update to its future land use plan and the VISION 2040 provisions. However, the updates reflected in this Transportation Plan, particularly the increased emphasis on non-motorized elements and alternative transportation modes, are consistent with the policy direction that VISION 2040 provides. Destination 2030 The central Puget Sound region’s current long-range plan, Destination 2030, addresses long-term transportation strategies and investments in King, Pierce, Snohomish, and Kitsap Counties. Adopted in 2001, Destination 2030 was developed to maintain and expand the regional vision of a growth management strategy, supporting compact urban areas connected by a high capacity transportation system. Destination 2030 focuses on preserving and managing the existing transportation system and ensuring the development of a balanced multi-modal transportation system that includes choices for private vehicles, public transit, ride sharing, walking and bicycling, and freight modes. Destination 2030 coordinates the diverse ambitions of the region’s counties, cities, towns, and neighborhoods, and emphasizes the connection between land use and transportation to reduce long-term infrastructure costs and provide better links between home, work, and other activities. Destination 2030 meets requirements governing Regional Transportation Plans in central Puget Sound. Destination 2030 was updated in 2007, satisfying new requirements and preparing for more extensive plan updates in 2010. The updates address emerging transportation trends and enhance the safety, security and special needs transportation aspects of Destination 2030. The improvements also add provisions related to congestion management, commute trip reduction, and environmental mitigation. Packet Page 144 of 407 Introduction August 2009 1-7 Transportation 2040 PSRC is updating the current regional transportation plan, Destination 2030. The new plan, Transportation 2040, will extend the region’s long-range transportation vision to the year 2040 and respond to the recently updated regional growth strategy, VISION 2040. The plan is expected to be adopted in 2010 (Puget Sound Regional Council 2009). Six alternatives—the baseline plus five action alternatives—have been created during the initial planning process and each includes a funding strategy. The alternatives consider two related approaches to transportation investment: improving efficiency and strategic expansion. Improving efficiency means that we make better use of the system to move people and goods and that we attempt to reduce the demands on the system during peak hour travel. Efficiency also depends on better use of land to reduce the need to drive and to increase bicycle and pedestrian options. The updated plan will continue to meet federal and state transportation planning requirements (Puget Sound Regional Council 2009). Snohomish County Countywide Planning Policies The Snohomish County Countywide Planning Policies are written policies used to establish a countywide framework from which the county and cities’ comprehensive plans are developed. The Countywide Planning Policies were originally adopted in 1994 and were last amended in 2008. Future amendments will be in response to changes in the countywide growth strategy, changes in the GMA, decisions of the Growth Management Hearings Board, and issues involving local plan implementation. Countywide Planning Policies include the following: Policies to implement urban growth areas; Policies for the promotion of contiguous and orderly development and provision of urban services; Policies for rural land use; Policies for housing; Policies for the siting of public capital facilities of a countywide or statewide nature; Policies for economic development and employment; Fiscal impact analysis; Policies for transportation. Transportation policies are intended to guide transportation planning by the county and cities within Snohomish County and to provide the basis for regional coordination with WSDOT and transportation operating agencies. The policies ensure that the countywide transportation systems are adequate to serve the level of land development that is allowed and forecasted. Packet Page 145 of 407 Comprehensive Transportation Plan City of Edmonds 1-8 Edmonds Comprehensive Plan The most current update of the City’s Comprehensive Plan was adopted in December 2008. The Comprehensive Plan has the following purposes: To serve as the basis for municipal policy on development and to provide guiding principles and objectives for the development of regulations. To promote the public health, safety, order, convenience, prosperity and the general welfare and values of the community. To anticipate and influence the orderly and coordinated development of land and building use of the city and its environs, and conserve and restore natural beauty and other natural resources. To encourage coordinated development and discourage piecemeal, spot or strip zoning and inharmonious subdividing. To facilitate adequate provisions for public services such as transportation, police and fire protection, water supply, sewage treatment, and parks. (City of Edmonds 2008) The Comprehensive Plan serves as the City’s primary growth management tool. A community such as Edmonds, with attractive natural features, a pleasant residential atmosphere and proximity to a large urban center, is subject to constant growth pressures. Growth management is intended to provide a long-range strategy guiding how the City will develop and how services will be provided. GMA requires that jurisdictions plan to accommodate housing and employment forecasts for the next 20 years within Urban Growth Areas. The City of Edmonds’ share of regional growth by the year 2025 is 5,420 additional residents (approximately 3,079 residential units) compared to 2000. By 2025, total population is expected to reach 44,880 residents. An extensive public process was conducted for the 2004 comprehensive plan update. It included numerous public workshops, open houses, and televised work sessions both at the Planning Board and City Council. Three public hearings were held at the Planning Board and two public hearings were held at the City Council. The Comprehensive Transportation Plan serves as the transportation element of the City’s Comprehensive Plan. As discussed in the VISION 2040 discussion above, the City’s next major update to the Comprehensive Plan is due in 2011, and will demonstrate alignment with the VISION 2040 Regional Growth Strategy, including expanded provisions for addressing health and the built environment, design, environmental planning and climate change. Packet Page 146 of 407 Introduction August 2009 1-9 Public Participation The Comprehensive Transportation Plan has included a significant amount of community involvement at all stages of the planning and development process, starting with the original Plan development in 1995, and continuing in the major Plan updates that have been completed in 2002 and 2009. Original 1995 Transportation Plan When the Transportation Element was initially created in 1995, citizens were encouraged to participate through completion of questionnaires and involvement in public open houses. In addition, a six-member Citizen Advisory Committee was established to oversee all aspects of the plan as it was developed. The project was launched with a brochure mailed to each of the approximately 14,000 residences and businesses in the city. The brochure explained the purpose of the Transportation Plan, the planning process, the components of the plan, and public participation opportunities. The brochure also contained a mail-back questionnaire through which respondents could identify problems with congestion, speeding and safety, as well as any other traffic problems that they perceived. Approximately 150 citizens provided input by returning the questionnaires. 2002 Transportation Plan Update For the 2002 update of the Transportation Plan, the City implemented a community involvement strategy that included public open houses and the participation of the Technical Advisory Committee (TAC) and Citizens’ Advisory Committee (CAC). Two public open houses provided a forum for the citizens to identify high priority transportation issues, and to review and provide comments on various components of the proposed Transportation Plan. Participants in the open houses provided suggestions for improving roadway infrastructure (i.e. signals, pavement marking, roadway width), transit, and pedestrian access; and identified issues related to roadway connectivity, speeding and cut-through traffic (with support for traffic calming), and access issues for disabled citizens. Two advisory committees, the TAC and CAC, were formed to oversee the 2002 Transportation Element Update. The TAC was made up in part by representatives from various City departments, including Engineering, Planning, Public Works, Parks, Fire, Police, and the School Districts. In addition, the TAC membership included representatives from WSDOT, Snohomish County, Washington State Ferries, Community Transit, Sound Transit, and the neighboring City of Lynnwood. Membership in the CAC included representatives from Bicycle Facilities, Parking, Development, as well as a wide variety of neighborhoods and corridors throughout the city. Packet Page 147 of 407 Comprehensive Transportation Plan City of Edmonds 1-10 In addition to the jurisdictions represented on the TAC, the following agencies reviewed the Transportation Plan: the City of Mountlake Terrace, the City of Shoreline, the Town of Woodway, and PSRC. 2009 Comprehensive Transportation Plan Feedback obtained from open houses, citizen committee involvement, and intergovernmental coordination was very useful to the initial development and subsequent revision of the Transportation Plan, greatly enhancing its effectiveness. These efforts led to more realistic assessments of existing conditions and impacts of forecasted growth, as well as the identification of appropriate measures to address both current and future conditions. Public Open Houses Three public open houses were held at Edmonds City Hall to inform the community about the Comprehensive Transportation Plan and gather comments on transportation improvement priorities. The first open house was held on June 19, 2008. The purpose of this meeting was to introduce the project to citizens, share the existing transportation inventories and existing conditions analyses that had been completed, and gather input from participants on the transportation issues they felt are most important. The second meeting was held on March 5, 2009. The purpose of this meeting was to share the results of future conditions analyses, present the preliminary list of recommended transportation projects, present that preliminary cost and revenue projections, and solicit citizen input on project funding priorities. The third meeting was held on June 30, 2009. The purpose of this meeting was to share the recommended transportation projects, which had been refined to incorporate the feedback gathered on the preliminary list, and also to discuss the financial outlook for transportation capital projects and solicit citizen input on potential funding strategies. Each meeting began with a presentation by project staff, providing an overview of project objectives, and specifics such as the existing conditions assessment, potential transportation improvement projects, anticipated costs and available revenues, and potential funding opportunities. Following each presentation, participants were invited to view display boards and fact sheets, talk with project staff, and submit comment cards. Citizen comments helped guide the city staff to identify project priorities and viable funding sources, and finalize the recommended Transportation Plan. The public open houses were publicized through notice in the City newsletter, City website, advertisement on the local government channel, and meeting notification in the local newspaper. Public participation materials used for this update process are included in Appendix A. Packet Page 148 of 407 Introduction August 2009 1-11 Citizen Advisory Transportation Committee The City of Edmonds Citizen Advisory Transportation Committee is comprised of eight citizens who meet monthly with City engineering staff. The purpose of the Committee is to: Monitor and make recommendations relative to motorized and non-motorized transportation issues, systems and funding; Contribute input to updates of the City Comprehensive Transportation Plan and monitor the efforts to implement the improvements detailed in the Plan; and Enhance communication with the public with regard to transportation needs. The Transportation Committee provided transportation recommendations for updates reflected in this Transportation Plan. City staff worked with Transportation Committee members throughout the Plan development to update the City’s transportation goals and policies, discuss Plan elements, and determine how best to produce a balanced multimodal plan. Walkway Committee The Edmonds Walkway Committee is comprised of 12 citizen volunteers, who walk frequently and live throughout the city. Their role is to evaluate criteria such as safety and access to schools and parks; prioritize proposed sidewalk project based on the criteria; and to provide feedback and recommendations related to the City Comprehensive Walkway Plan. The Walkway Committee met monthly from March 2008 through September 2008 and provided walkway recommendations presented in Chapter 4 of this Transportation Plan. Edmonds Bike Group The long-standing group meets monthly to discuss bicycle transportation issues. Membership includes over 50 residents, with about 10 members who regularly attend monthly group meetings. Members represent Edmonds and Woodway and are interested in improving citywide bicycle infrastructure and conditions for bicycle travel. The Bike Group helped establish three bicycle loop trails as well as a bike map indicating existing local bicycle lanes and where lanes should be added as part of future roadway improvement projects. The Bike Group’s recommendations are also included in Chapter 4 of this Transportation Plan. Intergovernmental Coordination The following agencies reviewed this Comprehensive Transportation Plan: WSDOT, PSRC, Community Transit, Snohomish County, City of Mountlake Terrace, City of Shoreline, and Town of Woodway. Packet Page 149 of 407 Comprehensive Transportation Plan City of Edmonds 1-12 Overview of the Transportation Plan Elements This Comprehensive Transportation Plan includes the following elements: Chapter 2: Goals, Objectives, and Policies – Presents the transportation goals, objectives, and policies that guide the assessments of existing and future conditions, and the development of the Recommended Transportation Plan. Chapter 3: Street System – Provides an inventory of existing streets, existing and projected future traffic volumes, assessment of existing and projected future roadway operations, safety assessment, standards for different street types, and recommended improvements to address safety and mobility needs. Chapter 4: Non-Motorized System – Provides an inventory of existing walkways and bikeways, assessment of needs, strategy for compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), and recommended improvements to address pedestrian and bicycle mobility and safety. Chapter 5: Transit and Transportation Demand Management – Provides an inventory of existing transit facilities and service, including buses, rail and ferries; and presents strategies to support transit and commute trip reduction. Chapter 6: Implementation and Financial Plan – Provides a summary of the projects, project prioritization, total costs, and financial strategies and projected revenue for recommended improvements through 2025. Packet Page 150 of 407 August 2009 2-1 Chapter 2. Goals, Objectives, and Policies Assessments of existing and future conditions, as well as development of the Transportation Plan, are guided by transportation goals, objectives, and policies developed by the City. A major update of the goals, objectives, and policies took place as part of the 2002 update of the Transportation Element, under the direction of the Citizen Advisory and Technical Advisory Committees. The goals, objectives, and policies were further refined as part of the 2009 Transportation Plan, under the direction of the Citizen Advisory Transportation Committee. Goals, objectives and policies are defined under the following major categories: State and Regional Context Streets and Highways Pedestrian and Bicycle Transportation Public Transportation Streetscape Capital Facilities Traffic Calming Air Quality and Climate Change Under each category, the following information is provided: A.General consists of a general discussion of the context, issues and priorities behind the development of the goals, objectives and policies for that category. B.Goals are generalized statements which broadly relate the physical environment to values, but for which no test for fulfillment can be readily applied. C.Objectives are specific measurable statements related to the attainment of goals. Packet Page 151 of 407 Comprehensive Transportation Plan City of Edmonds 2-2 D. Under each objective,Policies are listed that provide specific direction for meeting the objectives. The transportation element of the Comprehensive Plan is guided by the following transportation goals and policies, initially developed for the 1995 Transportation Element and updated in 2002 and 2009. Inevitably, conflict will occasionally arise between a transportation policy and real- world constraints and opportunities, or even between two policies. After the specifics of the situation and the purpose of the policies are fully understood, the conflict will be resolved using the best judgment of the City Council, as advised by City staff and the Citizen Advisory Transportation Committee. The following sub-sections define each of the Transportation Policies to guide the development of transportation in the city, within the broader framework of the Goals and Objectives. 15.25.000 State and Regional Context A.General: The combination of an increasing population, demand for transportation, and ever tightening limits on funding has led to a need to plan for future transportation systems that are more efficient movers of people and goods. Public transportation is expected to play an increasing role in the transportation system, and state and regional priorities are being shifted to encourage this goal. For this strategy to work, however, it also requires a commitment to maintaining existing transportation networks and investments, and to providing connections between different modes of travel. B.State Goal: Encourage efficient multi-modal transportation systems that are based on regional priorities and coordinated with county and city comprehensive plans. Regional Goal: Strategically invest in a variety of mobility options and demand management to support the regional system of activity centers. 15.25.010 Streets and Highways A.General. The street system in Edmonds is established on the Official Street Map and Arterial System Map. New right-of-way additions occur primarily in subdivisions. Within the city, three state highways, rail, and ferry facilities serve regional travel. A significant challenge facing the City is to bring substandard streets to City standards by providing such facilities as underground utilities, sidewalks, bikeways and landscaping. Key intersections that are operating at or beyond capacity must be improved. Feedback from citizens who participated in public meetings has clearly indicated concern about the types of potential transportation improvements, and the impact of improvements on existing neighborhoods. By placing an emphasis on providing facilities for bicycles, pedestrians, and buses, streetscapes can become a friendlier environment for all users. Packet Page 152 of 407 Goals, Objectives, and Policies August 2009 2-3 Speed and noise can be problems where arterial streets adjoin residential neighborhoods. Land use changes frequently occur where major arterial streets are improved. B.Goal I: Develop transportation systems that complement the land use, parks, cultural, and sustainability elements of the Comprehensive Plan. Goal II: Provide transportation services that enhance the safety of the community, maximize the use of the existing street system, and maintain the unique character of the city and its neighborhoods. Goal III: Implement transportation improvements in a way that minimizes adverse impacts on the natural environment, air quality, climate change, and energy consumption. Goal IV: Develop transportation improvements that support commuting in a way that discourages the use of local streets. Goal V: Prioritize and finance transportation improvements for the greatest public benefit, emphasizing transit, demand management, and maintenance of current facilities. Goal VI: Take a leadership role in coordinating the transportation actions of both local and non-local agencies. Seek to promote creative, coordinated solutions that do the following: Meet transportation service needs; Link local transportation networks with regional, state and national transportation systems; Increase use of public transit and non-motorized transportation; Reduce congestion; Reduce energy consumption; Provide solutions consistent with the City’s land use and cultural goals, and sustainability initiatives. C.Objective 1: Community Standards. The goals of the Comprehensive Plan, the needs and desires of its citizens, the integrity of its neighborhoods, shopping areas, parks, recreation facilities, schools and other public facilities are the criteria for measuring the effectiveness and success of transportation programs and improvements. Policy 1.1 Locate and design streets and highways to meet the demands of both existing and projected land uses as provided for in the Comprehensive Plan. Policy 1.2 Locate and design street and highway improvements to respect the residential character of the community and its quality living environment. Policy 1.3 Minimize the adverse impact of street and highway improvements on the natural environment. Packet Page 153 of 407 Comprehensive Transportation Plan City of Edmonds 2-4 Policy 1.4 Design streets to minimize environmental impacts on established neighborhoods. Policy 1.5 Develop roadway design standards with sufficient flexibility to reflect the differences in character and function of different roadways. Objective 2: Conservation. Streets, sidewalks and bikeways should be located, designed and improved in a manner that will conserve land, materials and energy. New streets must meet minimum City standards and code requirements. Streets and highways should be integrated into the total transportation system to facilitate the development of public transportation and increase mobility while reducing travel time and costs of construction and maintenance, in accordance with the following policies: Policy 2.1 Design streets with the minimum pavement areas needed, to reduce impervious surfaces. Policy 2.2 Include pedestrian and bicycle elements in roadway improvements to encourage energy conservation. Policy 2.3 Utilize innovative materials where feasible to reduce impervious surfaces.

Landscaping improvements should take maintenance requirements into consideration. Policy 3.9 Encourage underground placements of utilities at the time of extensive street improvement. Policy 3.10 Encourage placement of underground conduit for future installation of fiber optic cable at the time of extensive street improvement. Policy 3.11 Design street improvements so as not to impair the safe and efficient movement of pedestrians and bicycle traffic. Policy 3.12 Restrict access between non-arterial streets and the SR 99 commercial corridor to the extent necessary to prevent nonresidential traffic from entering residential areas, and to maintain efficient traffic flow and turning movements on SR 99. Policy 3.13 Design street improvements to encourage downtown traffic circulation to flow in and around commercial blocks, promoting customer convenience and reducing congestion. Separate through-traffic from local traffic circulation to encourage and support customer access. Policy 3.14 Carefully review parking requirements for downtown development proposals; to promote the development while still ensuring adequate balance between parking supply and demand. Policy 3.15 Provide access between private property and the public street system that is safe and convenient, and incorporates the following considerations: a. Limit and provide access to the street network in a manner consistent with the function and purpose of each roadway. Encourage the preparation of comprehensive access plans and consolidation of access points in commercial and residential areas through shared driveways and local access streets. Packet Page 155 of 407 Comprehensive Transportation Plan City of Edmonds 2-6 b. Require new development to consolidate and minimize access points along all state highways, principal arterials, and minor arterials. c. Place a high priority on consolidating existing access points onto all arterial streets in the city. This effort should be coordinated with local business and property owners in conjunction with improvements to the arterial system and redevelopment of adjacent land parcels. d. Design the street system so that the majority of direct residential access is provided via local streets. e. For access onto state highways, implement Chapter 468-52 of the Washington Administrative Code (WAC), Highway Access Management -- Access Control Classification System and Standards. Policy 3.16 Encourage underground parking as part of new development. Objective 4: Circulation.

In the case that the conversion is initiated by the owner(s) of the road, that the owner(s) finance the survey and legal work required for the conversion. 15.25.020 Pedestrian and Bicycle Transportation A.General. Walking and bicycling are beneficial forms of recreation, transportation, and a means of maintaining physical fitness, in addition to an excellent means of exploring the community. Carefully targeted investments in the city’s non-motorized network have the potential to provide an enhanced level of accessibility and mobility to residents at a relatively low cost. With geographically strategic investments in facilities such as sidewalks, crosswalks, bicycle paths and bicycle lanes, many short trips that are currently taken by car could be shifted to walking or bicycling trips. Recreational walkways are discussed in the City of Edmonds Comprehensive Walkway Plan (summarized in Chapter 4 of this Transportation Plan) and incorporate existing sidewalks and natural trails. Sidewalks exist on many major streets but some improvements are needed as well as addition of these facilities on several important routes. Although bicycling has rapidly expanded as a recreational activity in the community, it is also an important means of transportation. For many people, it provides the only available form of local transportation. The Bikeway Comprehensive Plan (summarized in Chapter 4 of this Transportation Plan) provides guidance and prioritizes bicycle improvements throughout the city. Planning for and implementing a connected system of walkways and bikeways is a way to promote community health, as recognized in the “Community Sustainability Element” of the Comprehensive Plan currently being developed by the City. B.Goal VII: Improve non-motorized transportation facilities and services. Packet Page 157 of 407 Comprehensive Transportation Plan City of Edmonds 2-8 C.Objective 6: Sidewalks.

Policy 6.14 Require sidewalk construction along street frontages to complete missing links, increase pedestrian safety, and provide linkages to key Packet Page 158 of 407 Goals, Objectives, and Policies August 2009 2-9 destinations, as a condition of development approval in accordance with ECDC 18.90 and Transportation Policies 7.1 through 7.4. Policy 6.15 Conduct pedestrian safety studies at locations where regular pedestrian crossings are observed along unstriped stretches of road. Install crosswalks at locations where the study indicates they are warranted, and where a minimum sight distance between pedestrians and drivers are met. Policy 6.16 Encourage the use of innovative crosswalk treatments, such as pedestrian actuated flashing signals or pedestrian crossing flags. Policy 6.17 Encourage collaboration between the Engineering and Parks departments to develop a network of walkways throughout the city. This network could include but not be limited to signed loop trails in neighborhoods, park-to-park walkways, and theme-related walks. Policy 6.18 Encourage separation of walkways from bikeways, where feasible. Policy 6.19 Provide a complete sidewalk network in commercial areas, especially downtown, as an element of public open space that supports pedestrian and commercial activity. Objective 7: Sidewalk Construction Policy. Require sidewalks to be constructed as a condition of development, for those projects that increase the number of residential units, or include commercial development or other uses that generate pedestrian acitivity. Policy 7.1 The City Engineer will determine whether sidewalks are required as a condition of approval for development projects. If they are required, the developer shall construct sidewalks along the street(s) fronted by the project, including new streets constructed as part of the development. If one or a combination of the following criteria is applicable to a project, sidewalks will be required as a condition of approval: a. Sidewalks are required by ECDC 18.90.030; b. Any sidewalks presently exist within 1,000 feet of the proposed development project on the street(s) on which the project fronts; c. The current Walkway Plan (chapter 4) indicates sidewalks/walkways are proposed at the project location (see Figure 4.3); d. The current Bikeway Plan (chapter 4) indicates a designated or proposed designated bikeway at the project location (see Figure 4-6); and/or e. The project is located within 1,000 feet and on a street leading to facilities such as parks, schools, churches, shopping/commercial establishments, etc., which generate pedestrian traffic. Packet Page 159 of 407 Comprehensive Transportation Plan City of Edmonds 2-10 Policy 7.2 Require sidewalks on both sides of the street inside the designated Downtown Sidewalk Area (see Figure 3-9). Policy 7.3 Sidewalks will not be required as a condition of approval if: a. The City Engineer makes an affirmative determination that none of the above criteria apply to the project, and that sidewalks are not necessary and will not be necessary for the foreseeable future; and/or b. The City Engineer, with the approval of the Planning Manager, determines that, in accordance with ECDC 18.90.030.B, special circumstances exist related to topography, insufficient right-of-way, or other factors making construction of sidewalks economically unfeasible or physically impossible. Policy 7.4 When the City Engineer determines that sidewalks are required as a condition of approval, payment-in-lieu of construction will be allowed only if: a. The City’s six-year Capital Improvement Program (CIP) includes a specifically identified City project for sidewalks at the location of the development project, and b. The City Engineer determines that it will be in the best interest of the City to construct sidewalks at the development project location as part of and concurrently with the City’s identified capital project. Objective 8: Bicycle Facilities. Provide safe and efficient bicycle facilities as an essential element of the city circulation and recreation system. Safe bicycle facilities must be an integral part of the City’s street and recreation plans to encourage and promote bicycling for both transportation and recreational purposes. Policy 8.1 Seek opportunities to improve safety for those who bicycle in the city. Policy 8.2 Place highest priority for improvements to bicycle facilities near schools, commercial districts, and transit facilities. Policy 8.3 Provide connections to bicycle facilities in adjacent jurisdictions. Policy 8.4 Provide bicycle lanes on arterial streets, where feasible, to encourage the use of bicycles for transportation and recreation purposes. Policy 8.5 Identify bicycle routes through signage.

Policy 12.2 Coordinate with local public transit agencies and private transit providers regarding road closures or other events that may disrupt normal transit operations in order to minimize impacts to transit customers. 15.25.040 Streetscape A.General. The City is a place with unique character and beauty. The street system has a tremendous impact on the scenic quality of our community and should complement our setting, while supporting our neighborhoods. B.Goal X: Incorporate streetscape design in the development and redevelopment of city streets to enhance the scenic beauty of, and help preserve, our neighborhoods. The Edmonds Streetscape Plan (City of Edmonds 2006), including the Street Tree Plan, shall guide the development of these design standards, which need to also recognize the unique neighborhood characteristics. C.Objective 13: Design Standards. Develop design standards that result in an attractive street system consistent with the character of the city. Packet Page 164 of 407 Goals, Objectives, and Policies August 2009 2-15 Policy 13.1 Crosswalks should be eight feet wide. Policy 13.2 Streetlights should be the main light source for public streets, with the following minimum standards: a. The intersection of arterial and collector streets should have a minimum of two standard street lights with additional street lights placed at a maximum of 250-foot spacing between intersections; b. The intersection of residential local streets should have at least one standard street light; c. Streetlights and poles should be of a high design quality, with specifications guided by the Edmonds Streetscape Plan. Policy 13.3 Street trees should be installed at 50-foot intervals or one per lot whichever is greater. Plant materials should be specified by the City Parks Department and maintained in conformance with City policies. Care should be taken in both the selection and placement of landscaping materials to protect existing scenic views and vistas. 15.25.050 Capital Facilities, Transportation A.General. The following goals, objectives and policies address capital facility planning and financing for projects contained in the transportation element of the Edmonds Comprehensive Plan. These criteria will serve to guide agencies planning public capital facilities and services in Edmonds. B.Goal XI: Provide adequate transportation facilities concurrent with the impact of new development. Goal XII: Coordinate the City’s transportation element plans with state, county, and local agencies. Goal XIII: Maintain a six-year TIP as part of the capital facilities plan of the Comprehensive Plan. Goal XIV: Prepare and maintain a TIP that is financially feasible and financially constrained. Goal XV: Ensure development pays a proportionate cost of transportation improvements required to mitigate impacts associated with the development. Goal XVI: Locate and design transportation facilities in keeping with the community character, and to be compatible with surrounding land uses and the environment. C.Objective 14: Inventory. Identify and define the transportation facilities in the city. Policy 14.1 Maintain an inventory of existing transportation facilities owned or operated by the City and State within Edmonds; include the locations and capacities of such facilities and systems. Packet Page 165 of 407 Comprehensive Transportation Plan City of Edmonds 2-16 Objective 15: Level of Service. Establish level of service (LOS) standards for City owned transportation facilities in Edmonds and coordinate with the State on LOS standards for state owned facilities. Policy 15.1 The Highway Capacity Manual (Transportation Research Board, Special Report 209) is the City’s recognized source for roadway LOS definition and analysis techniques. The quality of traffic operation is graded into one of six LOS designations, A through F, with LOS A representing the free flow traffic operation and LOS F representing the worst levels of traffic congestion. Policy 15.2 Establish LOS standards which (1) measure the LOS preferred by city residents, (2) that can be achieved and maintained for existing development and growth anticipated in the land use plan, and (3) are achievable with the TIP and Comprehensive Plan. Policy 15.3 Minimum LOS standards are established as follows. LOS is measured at intersections during a typical weekday PM peak hour, using analysis methods outlined in the Highway Capacity Manual (Transportation Research Board 2000). For intersections of roads with different functional classifications, the standard for the higher classification shall apply. Facility Standard City Streets Arterials: LOS D or better (except state routes); Collectors: LOS C or better. State Routes1 SR 99 north of SR 104; SR 524: LOS E or better. 1. State routes for which a standard are designated Highways of Regional Significance, and are subject to City concurrency requirements. State routes designated as Highways of Statewide Significance (SR 104; and SR 99 south of SR 104) are not subject to concurrency and thus no City standard is defined for these facilities. However, to monitor operations on Highways of Statewide Significance, the City identifies existing or potential future deficiencies if LOS D is exceeded. Policy 15.4 When a lower order roadway intersects with one of higher order, apply the LOS standard for the higher order roadway (e.g., when a collector and arterial street intersect, the LOS for the arterial street will apply). Policy 15.5 Use LOS standards to (1) determine the need for transportation facilities, and (2) test the adequacy of such facilities to serve proposed development. In addition, use LOS standards for City-owned transportation facilities to help develop the City’s annual budget and 6- year transportation improvements program. Policy 15.6 Reassess the TIP annually to ensure that transportation facilities needs, financing, and levels of service are consistent with the City’s land use plan. The annual update should be coordinated with the annual budget process, and the annual amendment of the Comprehensive Plan. Packet Page 166 of 407 Goals, Objectives, and Policies August 2009 2-17 Policy 15.7 Work toward development of a multi-modal LOS standard that considers transit and non-motorized operations as well as automobile operations. Objective 16: Transportation System Efficiency. Implement a variety of strategies that respond to the demands of growth on transportation facilities while maximizing the efficiency of the existing infrastructure. Policy 16.1 Ensure city transportation facilities and services are provided concurrent with new development or redevelopment to mitigate impacts created from such development. Road improvements may be funded with mitigation fees, and provided at the time of or within six years of development. Policy 16.2 Maximize efficiencies of existing transportation facilities, using techniques such as: Transportation Demand Management Encouraging development to use existing facilities Other methods of improved efficiency. Policy 16.3 Provide additional transportation facility capacity when existing facilities are used to their maximum level of efficiency consistent with adopted LOS standards. Policy 16.4 Encourage development where adequate transportation facilities and services exist or can be provided in an efficient manner. Prioritize location of large trip generators (e.g. community centers, recreation facilities, shopping, entertainment, public facilities, etc.) within 0.25 mile of Transit Emphasis Corridors as identified in Community Transit’s Six Year Transit Development Plan and Long Range Transit Plan. Policy 16.5 Work with Community Transit to encourage ridesharing at employment centers. Objective 17: Coordination. Coordinate transportation planning and programming with state, regional, county, and local agencies Policy 17.1 Coordinate with non-City providers of transportation facilities and services on a joint program for maintaining adopted LOS standards, funding, and construction of capital improvements. Work in partnership with non-City transportation facility providers to prepare functional plans consistent with the City Comprehensive Plan. Policy 17.2 Regularly coordinate with WSDOT, Washington State Ferries, Community Transit, King County Metro, Snohomish County, the Town of Woodway, and the Cities of Mountlake Terrace, Lynnwood, Packet Page 167 of 407 Comprehensive Transportation Plan City of Edmonds 2-18 Shoreline, and Mukilteo, to ensure levels of service for transportation facilities are compatible. Objective 18: Financing. Establish mechanisms to ensure that required transportation facilities are financially feasible. Policy 18.1 Base the financing plan for transportation facilities on estimates of current local revenues and external revenues that are reasonably anticipated to be received by the City. Policy 18.2 Finance the six-year TIP within the City's financial capacity to achieve a balance between available revenue and expenditures related to transportation facilities. If projected funding is inadequate to finance needed transportation facilities, based on adopted LOS standards and forecasted growth, the City should explore one or more of the following options: Lower the LOS standard Change the Land Use Plan Increase the amount of revenue from existing sources Adopt new sources of revenue Policy 18.3 Encourage Neighborhood planning to afford neighborhoods the opportunity to form Local Improvement Districts (LIDs) to develop locally based improvements that exceed City standards (e.g. for parking, median strips, landscaping, traffic calming, walkways or other locally- determined projects). Policy 18.4 Seek to balance funding to support multimodal solutions to transportation needs. Objective 19: Revenue. Establish mechanisms to ensure that required transportation facilities are fully funded. Policy 19.1 Match revenue sources to transportation improvements on the basis of sound fiscal policies. Policy 19.2 Revise the TIP in the event that revenue sources for transportation improvements, which require voter approval in a local referendum, are not approved. Policy 19.3 Ensure that ongoing operating and maintenance costs associated with a transportation facility are financially feasible prior to constructing the facility. Objective 20: Concurrency. Ensure existing and future development pays for the costs of needed transportation improvements. Packet Page 168 of 407 Goals, Objectives, and Policies August 2009 2-19 Policy 20.1 Ensure that existing development pays for transportation improvements that reduce or eliminate existing deficiencies, and pays for some or all of the cost to replace obsolete or worn out facilities. Existing development may also pay a portion of the cost of transportation improvements needed by future development. Existing development's payments may take the form of user fees, charges for services, special assessments, and taxes. Policy 20.2 Ensure that future development pays a proportionate share of the cost to mitigate impacts associated with new facilities. Future development may also pay a portion of the cost to replace obsolete or worn-out facilities. Future development's payments may take the form of voluntary contributions for the benefit of any transportation facility, impact fees, mitigation payments, capacity fees, dedications of land, provision of transportation facilities, and future payments of users fees, charges for services, special assessments, and taxes. Objective 21: Partnerships. Seek to mitigate disproportionate financial burdens to the City due to the location of essential transportation facilities. Policy 21.1 Through joint planning or inter-local agreements, the City should seek to mitigate disproportionate financial burdens that result from the location of essential transportation facilities. Policy 21.2 Seek amenities or incentives for neighborhoods in which the facilities are located, to compensate for adverse impacts. 15.25.060 Traffic Calming A.General. Speeding is the single most received complaint regarding traffic. Locations include arterials, local access and commercial access streets, and in residential neighborhoods. Citizens have expressed concern about the safety of children walking along roadways or playing near the street, vehicles entering streets from driveways or at intersections, and cut- through traffic. The City should establish a systematic and consistent way of responding to requests for action, while respecting the City’s limited finances and staff resources. The City must also remain cognizant of the transportation system’s need to carry vehicles efficiently and effectively. B.Goal XVII: Respond to citizen requests concerning traffic speed and pass through traffic in a consistent, systematic and responsive manner, while maintaining the basic function of the Edmonds street system. C.Objective 22: Traffic Calming. Maintain a response system to citizen requests concerning traffic calming procedures by implementing the Traffic Calming program described in this Transportation Plan (see Appendix B). Packet Page 169 of 407 Comprehensive Transportation Plan City of Edmonds 2-20 Policy 22.1 Use a formal written procedure for traffic calming requests, and an acknowledgement procedure for receipt of request. Policy 22.2 Use field investigation procedures that include short-term solutions. Policy 22.3 Use neighborhood speed watch program. Policy 22.4 Publicize the formal procedure for traffic calming requests (Policy 22.1) and neighborhood speed watch program (Policy 22.3). Policy 22.5 Use permanent traffic calming request procedures and evaluation procedures. Policy 22.6 Use permanent traffic calming design criteria. Policy 22.7 Use a permanent traffic calming authorization procedure. Policy 22.8 Use a permanent traffic calming implementation procedure. Policy 22.9 Traffic calming measures should be located and designed so as not to interfere with bus operation, travel speed, or on-time performance. 15.25.070 Air Quality and Climate Change A.General. The Washington State Clean Air Conformity Act establishes guidelines and directives for implementing the Federal Clean Air Act Amendments. The Washington Administrative Code requires local transportation plans to include policies that promote the reduction of criteria pollutants that exceed national ambient air quality standards. Environmental quality is recognized as a critical part of what people often describe as the “character” of Edmonds. In the “Community Sustainability Element” of the Comprehensive Plan, the City recognizes that global climate change brings significant risks to the community, and that appropriate transportation policies are required.

Street System This chapter provides an inventory of the existing street system, assessment of existing and projected future roadway operations, safety assessment, design standards for different street types, and recommended projects and programs to address safety and mobility needs. Roadway Functional Classification Existing Classifications All streets in the city have a designated functional classification. The functional classification of a street depends on the types of trips that occur on it, the basic purpose for which it was designed, and the relative level of traffic volume it carries. The different classifications of roadways serve different stages of a trip: Traveler accesses roadway system from origin (access), Traveler travels through roadway system (mobility), and Traveler accesses destination from roadway system (access). The different types of roads that serve these functions are classified as follows. Freeway – Multi-lane, high-speed, high-capacity road intended exclusively for motorized traffic. All access is controlled by interchanges and road crossings are grade-separated. No freeways pass through Edmonds, though Interstate-5 (I-5) runs to the east of the city limits. Principal Arterial – Road that connects major activity centers and facilities, typically constructed with limited direct access to abutting land uses. The primary function of principal arterials is to provide a high degree of vehicle mobility, but they may provide a minor amount of land access. Principal arterials serve high traffic volume corridors, carrying the greatest portion of through or long-distance traffic within a city, and serving inter-community trips. Packet Page 171 of 407 Comprehensive Transportation Plan City of Edmonds 3-2 On-street parking is often limited to improve capacity for through-traffic. Typically, principal arterials are multi-lane facilities and have traffic signals at intersections with other arterials. Regional bus routes are generally located on principal arterials, as are transfer centers and park-and-ride lots. Principal arterials usually have sidewalks and sometimes have separate bicycle facilities, so that non-motorized traffic is separated from vehicle traffic. Minor Arterial – Road that connects centers and facilities within the community and serves some through-traffic, while providing a greater level of access to abutting properties. Minor arterials connect with other arterial and collector roads, and serve less concentrated traffic- generating areas, such as neighborhood shopping centers and schools. Provision for on-street parking varies by location. Although the dominant function of minor arterials is the movement of through-traffic, they also provide for considerable local traffic with origins or destinations at points along the corridor. Minor arterials also carry local and commuter bus routes. They usually have sidewalks and sometimes have separate bicycle facilities, so that non-motorized traffic is separated from vehicular traffic. Collector – Road designed to fulfill both functions of mobility and land access. Collectors typically serve intra-community trips connecting residential neighborhoods with each other or activity centers, while also providing a high degree of property access within a localized area. These roadways “collect” vehicular trips from local access streets and distribute them to higher classification streets. Additionally, collectors provide direct services to residential areas, local parks, churches and areas with similar uses of the land. Typically, right-of-way and paving widths are narrower for collectors than arterials. They may only be two lanes wide and are quite often controlled with stop signs. Local bus routes often run on collectors, and they usually have sidewalks on at least one side of the street. Local Access – Road with a primary function of providing access to residences. Typically, they are only a few blocks long, are relatively narrow, and have low speeds. Local streets are generally not designed to accommodate buses, and often do not have sidewalks. Culs-de-sac are also considered local access streets. All streets in Edmonds that have not been designated as an arterial or a collector are local access streets. Local access streets make up the majority of the miles of roadway in the city. Figure 3-1 illustrates the basic tradeoffs that occur between mobility and access among the different functional classifications of roadways. Higher classes (e.g. freeways and arterials) provide a high degree of mobility and have more limited access to adjacent land uses, accommodating higher traffic volumes at higher speeds. Lower classes (e.g., local access streets) provide a high degree of access to adjacent land and are not intended to serve through traffic, carrying lower traffic volumes at lower speeds. Collectors generally provide a more balanced emphasis on traffic mobility and access to land uses. Cities and counties are required to adopt a street classification system that is consistent with these guidelines (RCW 35.78.010 and RCW 47.26.090). Figure 3-2 shows the existing road functional classifications for city streets. Packet Page 172 of 407 City of Edmonds Comprehensive Transportation Plan August 2009 Figure 3-1.

Evaluation of Road Functional Classifications Over time, changes in traffic volumes and shifts in land use and traffic patterns may cause the function of a road to change. Thus, it is important to periodically review the functions city roads serve, and evaluate whether any changes in classification are warranted. The following guidelines are used for evaluating the classifications. 1.Average Daily Traffic (ADT) – Roadways with higher functional classifications typically carry higher traffic volumes. On high volume roadways, the demand for traffic mobility is more likely to outweigh the need for access to abutting land. Conversely, where volumes are lower the access function of the street will generally be more important than mobility for traffic. Traffic volumes alone do not provide the basis for classification, but are used in conjunction with the other criteria listed below. However, the following ranges are used as guidelines: - Minor Arterial Street: 3,000 to 15,000 ADT - Collector Street: 1,000 to 5,000 ADT 2.Non-motorized use – The accommodation of non-automobile modes, including walking, bicycling, and transit use is another important measure of a road’s function. Roads with higher classifications tend to serve more modes of travel. The more travel modes that a street accommodates, the greater the number of people that street serves, and the more important that street is to the movement of people, goods, and services throughout the city. 3.Street length – A street that is longer in length tends to function at a higher classification. This is due to the fact that longer (continuous) streets allow travelers to move between distant attractions with a limited number of turns, stops, and other distractions that discourage them Packet Page 175 of 407 Comprehensive Transportation Plan City of Edmonds 3-6 from using streets of lower classification. Longer streets generally supply a higher level of mobility, compared to other streets that provide more access. 4.Street spacing – Streets of higher classification usually have greater traffic carrying capacity and fewer impediments to travel. Fewer facilities are needed to serve the traffic mobility demands of the community due to their efficiency in moving traffic. This typically means that fewer streets of higher classification are needed, so there will be greater distances between them. The farther the distance of a street from a higher classification street, the more likely it is that the street will function at a similar classification. A greater number of streets of lower classification are needed to provide access to abutting land. Therefore, they must be spaced more closely and there must be many more of them. It is considered most desirable to have a network of multiple lower classification streets feeding into progressively fewer higher classified streets. Based on these guidelines, typical spacing for the different classifications of roadways are as follows: - Principal Arterials: 1.0 mile - Minor Arterials: 0.3 to 0.7 mile - Collectors: 0.25 to 0.5 mile - Local Access: 0.1 mile 5.Street connectivity – Streets that provide easy connections to other roads of higher classification are likely to function at a similar classification. This can be attributed to the ease of movement perceived by travelers who desire to make that connection. For example, state highways are generally interconnected with one another, to provide a continuous network of high order roadways that can be used to travel into and through urban areas. Urban arterials provide a similar interconnected network at the citywide level. By contrast, collectors often connect local access streets with one or two higher-level arterial streets, thus helping provide connectivity at the neighborhood scale rather than a citywide level. Local streets also provide a high degree of connectivity as a necessary component of property access. However, the street lengths, traffic control, and/or street geometry are usually designed so that anyone but local travelers would consider the route inconvenient. The Federal-Aid Highway Act of 1973 requires the use of functional highway classification to update and modify the Federal-aid highway systems. Thus, the FHWA and WSDOT have adopted a federal functional classification system for city roadways. Allocation of funds, as well as application of local agency design standards, is based on the federal classification. Federal funds may only be spent on federally classified routes. Based upon the guidelines provided above, the following changes to functional classifications are recommended: Apply for the following federal functional classification upgrade from collector to minor arterial for the following two road segments: - 220th Street, 9th Avenue S – SR 99 Packet Page 176 of 407 Street System August 2009 3-7 - 76th Avenue W, 244th Street SW – 212th Street SW Apply for the following federal functional classification upgrade from local access to collector for the following six road segments: - Dayton Street, 5th Avenue S – 9th Avenue S - 200th Street SW, 88th Avenue W – 76th Avenue W - 7th Avenue N, Main Street – Caspers Street - 80th Avenue W / 180th Street SW, 200th Street – Olympic View Drive - 80th Avenue W, 212th Street SW – 220th Street SW - 96th Avenue W, 220th Street SW – Walnut Street Apply for the following federal functional classification downgrade from collector to local access for the following road segment: - Admiral Way, south of W Dayton Street Table 3-2 summarizes existing and recommended functional classifications for city streets.

SR 104 (Edmonds Way) runs roughly east-west between the Edmonds-Kingston Ferry dock and I-5. SR 524 (Puget Drive/196th Street SW) runs east-west connecting SR 104 to SR 99, I-5, and ultimately SR 522. SR 99 runs north-south on the east side of the city, and is the highest traffic-carrying arterial in Edmonds. From Edmonds, it runs north to Everett, and south through Shoreline to Seattle and the Tacoma metropolitan area. In 1998, the Washington State Legislature passed Highways of Statewide Significance legislation (RCW 47.06.140). Highways of Statewide Significance promote and maintain significant statewide travel and economic linkages. The legislation emphasizes that these significant facilities should be planned from a statewide perspective, and thus they are not subject to local concurrency standards. (WSDOT 2007) In Edmonds, SR 104 between the Edmonds-Kingston Ferry Dock and I-5, and SR 99 between the south city limits and SR 104 have been designated as Highways of Statewide Significance. The Edmonds-Kingston ferry route is considered to be part of SR 104, and is also identified as a Highway of Statewide Significance. (Washington State Transportation Commission 2006) City Streets The city street system is comprised of a grid of principal arterials, minor arterials, collectors, and local streets.

Traffic calming devices are currently in place at many locations throughout Edmonds. These measures have been installed as part of capital improvement projects, as opportunities were presented, and occasionally in response to citizen requests. The following types of traffic calming devices are currently present within the city: Bulb-outs – curb extensions that are used to narrow the roadway either at an intersection or at mid- block along a street corridor. Their primary purpose is to make intersections more pedestrian friendly by shortening the roadway crossing distance and drawing attention to pedestrians via raised peninsula. Additionally, a bulb-out often tightens the curb radius at the corner, which reduces the speeds of turning vehicles. Chicane – series of curb extensions that alternate from one side of the street to the other, which narrows the roadway and requires drivers to slow down to travel through the chicane. Typically, a series of at least three curb extensions is used. Partial closure – involves closing down one lane of a two-lane roadway along with a “Do Not Enter” or “One Way” sign, in order to reduce cut-through traffic. Raised pavement markers – 4-inch diameter raised buttons placed in design sequence across a road, causing a vehicle to vibrate and alert the motorist to an upcoming situation. Raised pavement markers may be used in conjunction with curves, crosswalks, pavement legends and speed limit signs. They are most effective when used to alert motorists to unusual conditions ahead, and are most commonly used on approaches to stop signs, often in situations where the visibility of a stop sign is limited. Speed hump – rounded raised area placed across the roadway, which is approximately 3 to 4 inches high and 12 to 22 feet long. This treatment is used to slow vehicles by forcing them to decelerate in order to pass over them comfortably. The design speeds for speed humps are 20 to 25 mph. Traffic circle – raised island placed in the center of an intersection which forces traffic into circular maneuvers. Motorists yield to vehicles already in the intersection and only need to consider traffic approaching in one direction.

Parking is accommodated on the street and in private parking lots associated with existing development. Public parking is provided throughout the city at no charge to drivers. In the downtown area, parking is limited to three hours along most of the downtown streets, with certain stalls designated for handicapped parking, one-hour parking, and loading/unloading. The City has established an employee permit parking program to provide more parking to the general public in high demand parking areas by encouraging Edmonds' business owners and employees to park in lower demand parking areas. The permit authorizes permit employees to park for more than three hours in three-hour parking areas if the parking is part of a commute to work. A three-hour public parking lot is provided at the Edmonds Police Department/Fire Department. Supply is currently adequate to accommodate parking demand. The City will continue to monitor parking demand and supply and make adjustments as needed. Figure 3-7 shows the downtown streets on which three hour parking, one hour parking, and handicapped parking are located.

The Goals and Objectives of the Transportation Plan relate street design to the desires of the local community, and advise that design be at a scale commensurate with the function that the street serves. Guidelines are therefore important to provide designers with essential elements of street design as desired by the community. Essential functions of streets in Edmonds include vehicle mobility, pedestrian access, bicycle access and aesthetics. Street design guidelines for the City are based on the State of Washington Local Agency Guidelines for roadway design (WSDOT 2008) and ECDC Title 18. These guidelines specify that lane widths should be 11 to 12 feet depending on the location of curbs and percentage of truck traffic. Left-turn lanes increase capacity, reduce vehicular accidents, and improve access to adjacent property. Bicycle lanes should be provided along major traffic corridors, and when striped, should be a minimum of 5 feet in width. Sidewalk widths should be a minimum of 5 feet in low pedestrian volume areas, and a minimum of 7 feet in high pedestrian volume areas. Landscaped medians are especially important to soften wide expanses of pavement, to provide a haven for crossing pedestrians, and to provide aesthetic treatment to streets. The adoption of design guidelines is advantageous over the adoption of standards in that it allows a needed flexibility in design that may not be permitted by strict standards. Often when designing streets obstacles are encountered that require modification in design approach. Impediments might include topographic features that make road construction difficult or very expensive; inadequate available right-of-way to allow for all desired features; or environmentally sensitive areas that require modification to avoid adverse impacts. Additionally, funding or grant sources may require specific features or dimensions. Table 3-6 summarizes typical guidelines applied to the design of different types of roads in Edmonds. Figure 3-8 illustrates typical cross sections for each functional classification of road. Figure 3-9 illustrates the downtown area which sidewalks are required on both sides of the street.

The analysis of existing operating conditions on city roadways is based on this data. Level of Service LOS is the primary measurement used to determine the operating quality of a roadway segment or intersection. The quality of traffic conditions is graded into one of six LOS designations: A, B, C, D, E, or F. Table 3-7 presents typical characteristics of the different LOS designations. LOS A and B represent the fewest traffic slow-downs, and LOS C and D represent intermediate traffic congestion. LOS E indicates that traffic conditions are at or approaching urban congestion; and LOS F indicates that traffic volumes are at a high level of congestion and unstable traffic flow. Table 3-7. Typical Roadway Level of Service Characteristics Level of Service Characteristic Traffic Flow A Free flow – Describes a condition of free flow with low volumes and high speeds. Freedom to select desired speeds and to maneuver within the traffic stream is extremely high. Stopped delay at intersections is minimal. B Stable flow – Represents reasonable unimpeded traffic flow operations at average travel speeds. The ability to maneuver within the traffic stream is only slightly restricted and stopped delays are not bothersome. Drivers are not generally subjected to appreciable tensions. C Stable flow – In the range of stable flow, but speeds and maneuverability are more closely controlled by the higher volumes. The selection of speed is now significantly affected by interactions with others in the traffic stream, and maneuvering within the traffic stream required substantial vigilance on the part of the user. The general level of comfort and convenience declines noticeably at this level. D Stable flow – Represents high-density, but stable flow. Speed and freedom to maneuver are severely restricted, and the driver or pedestrian experiences a generally poor level of comfort and convenience- Small increases in traffic flow will generally cause operational problems at this level. Packet Page 194 of 407 Street System August 2009 3-25 Level of Service Characteristic Traffic Flow E Unstable flow – Represents operating conditions at or near the maximum capacity level. Freedom to maneuver within the traffic stream is extremely difficult, and it is generally accomplished by forcing a vehicle or pedestrian to "give way" to accommodate such maneuvers. Comfort and convenience levels are extremely poor, and driver or pedestrian frustration is generally high. Operations at this level are usually unstable, because small increases in flow or minor disturbances within the traffic stream will cause breakdowns F Forced flow – Describes forced or breakdown flow, where volumes are above theoretical capacity. This condition exists wherever the amount of traffic approaching a point exceeds the amount that can traverse the point. Queues form behind such locations, and operations within the queue are characterized by stop-and-go waves that are extremely unstable. Vehicles may progress at reasonable speeds for several hundred feet or more, then be required to stop in a cyclical fashion. Source: Transportation Research Board 2000 Level of Service Criteria Methods described in the Highway Capacity Manual (Transportation Research Board 2000) are used to calculate the LOS for signalized and stop-controlled intersections. Table 3-8 summarizes the LOS criteria for signalized and stop-controlled intersections. LOS for intersections is determined by the average amount of delay experienced by vehicles at the intersection. For stop- controlled intersections, LOS depends on the average delay experienced by drivers on the stop- controlled approaches. Thus, for two-way or T-intersections, LOS is based on the average delay experienced by vehicles entering the intersection on the minor (stop-controlled) approaches. For all-way stop controlled intersections, LOS is determined by the average delay for all movements through the intersection. The LOS criteria for stop-controlled intersections have different threshold values than those for signalized intersections, primarily because drivers expect different levels of performance from distinct types of transportation facilities. In general, stop-controlled intersections are expected to carry lower volumes of traffic than signalized intersections. Thus, for the same LOS, a lower level of delay is acceptable at stop-controlled intersections than it is for signalized intersections. Table 3-8. Level of Service Criteria for Intersections Average Delay per Vehicle (seconds/vehicle) LOS Designation Signalized Intersections Stop-Controlled Intersections A 10 10 B > 10 – 20 > 10 – 15 C > 20 – 35 > 15 – 25 D > 35 – 55 > 25 – 35 E > 55 – 80 > 35 – 50 F > 80 > 50 Source: Transportation Research Board 2000 Packet Page 195 of 407 Comprehensive Transportation Plan City of Edmonds 3-26 The Highway Capacity Manual methodology does not provide methods for analyzing delay, queues, or LOS of roundabouts. Therefore, LOS analysis for roundabouts is calculated using methods presented in a FHWA report that provides an approach for estimating the average vehicle delay at each entry point along the rotary (FHWA 2000). Utilizing this method, the LOS of the rotary is based upon the average vehicle delay at its most congested entry point. Because LOS thresholds for roundabouts are not provided in the FHWA report, the Highway Capacity Manual criteria for stop-controlled intersections (see Table 3-8) is applied, because drivers’ expectations for delay at a roundabout more closely resemble expectations at a stop sign than at a signal (e.g. a lower level of delay is considered acceptable). Concurrency and Level of Service Standard Under GMA, concurrency is the requirement that adequate infrastructure be planned and financed to support the City’s adopted future land use plan. LOS standards are used to evaluate the transportation impacts of long-term growth and concurrency. In order to monitor concurrency, the jurisdictions adopt acceptable roadway operating conditions that are then used to measure existing or proposed traffic conditions and identify deficiencies. The City has adopted LOS standards for city streets and state routes in the city that are subject to concurrency. Table 3-9 shows the City LOS standards. Table 3-9. Level of Service Standards Facility Standard City Streets Arterials: LOS D or better (except state routes); Collectors: LOS C or better. State Routes1 SR 99 north of SR 104; SR 524: LOS E or better. 1. State routes for which a standard is designated are Highways of Regional Significance, and are subject to City concurrency requirements. State routes designated as Highways of Statewide Significance (SR 104, and SR 99 south of SR 104) are not subject to concurrency and thus no City standard is defined for these facilities. However, to monitor operations on Highways of Statewide Significance, the City identifies existing or potential future deficiencies if the WSDOT standard of LOS D is exceeded. LOS is measured at intersections during a typical weekday PM peak hour, using analysis methods outlined in the Highway Capacity Manual (Transportation Research Board 2000) and discussed in the previous section. For intersections of roads with different functional classifications, the standard for the higher classification shall apply. Intersections that operate below these standards are considered deficient under concurrency. Deficiencies are identified either as existing deficiencies, meaning they are occurring under existing conditions and not as the result of future development, or as projected future deficiencies, meaning that they are expected to occur under future projected conditions. Concurrency management ensures that development, in conformance with the adopted land use element of the Comprehensive Plan, will not cause a transportation facility’s operations to drop below the adopted standard. Transportation capacity expansion or demand management strategies must be in place or financially planned to be in place within six years of development use. Packet Page 196 of 407 Street System August 2009 3-27 Transportation concurrency is a term that describes whether a roadway is operating at its adopted LOS standard. The adopted standard indicates a jurisdiction’s intent to maintain transportation service at that level, which has budgetary implications. If a city adopts a high LOS standard, it will have to spend more money to maintain the roadways than if it adopts a low LOS standard. On the other hand, a standard that is too low may lead to an unacceptable service level and reduce livability for the community or neighborhood. Under the GMA, if a development would cause the LOS to fall below the jurisdiction’s adopted standard, it must be denied unless adequate improvements or demand management strategies can be provided concurrent with the development. The key is to select a balanced standard—not so high as to be unreasonable to maintain, and not so low as to allow an unacceptable level of traffic congestion. Highways of Statewide Significance (in Edmonds, SR 104, and SR 99 south of SR 104) are not subject to local concurrency standards. However, WSDOT has established a standard of LOS D for these facilities. The City monitors Highways of Statewide Significance, and coordinates with WSDOT to address any deficiencies that are identified. Existing Level of Service Table 3-10 presents existing PM peak hour LOS for 24 intersections throughout the city. Existing intersection LOS is also shown in Figure 3-10. The analysis indicates that the following four stop- controlled intersections are currently operating below the City’s adopted LOS standard: Puget Drive and 88th Avenue W 212th Street SW and 84th Avenue W Main Street and 9th Avenue N Walnut Street and 9th Avenue S The intersection of 238th Street SW and Edmonds Way is operating at LOS F during the PM peak hour. It is located on SR 104, which is a Highway of Statewide Significance, and thus is under WSDOT jurisdiction and is not subject to City concurrency standards. However, the City still considers exceeding LOS E to be an operational deficiency, and will work with WSDOT to address issues at this location.

Travel Demand Forecasting Model For this Transportation Plan, a travel demand forecasting model was developed to analyze future travel demand and traffic patterns for the weekday PM peak hour, which is typically the hour in which the highest level of traffic occurs, and is the time period in which concurrency assessment is based. The major elements of the model include: Transportation network and zone development Existing land use inventory Trip generation Trip distribution Network assignment Model calibration Model of future traffic conditions. These elements are described in the following sections. Transportation Network and Zone Development The analysis roadway network is represented as a series of links (roadway segments) and nodes (intersections). Road characteristics such as capacity, length, speed, and turning restrictions at intersections are coded into the network. The geographic area covered by the model is divided into transportation analysis zones (TAZs) that have similar land use characteristics. Figure 3-11 shows the TAZs that were developed for the Edmonds model. The PSRC regional transportation model was used as the basis for both transportation network and TAZ definitions. For the more detailed Edmonds model, some larger TAZs from the regional model were subdivided into smaller TAZs, and the roadway network was analyzed in greater detail. Consistency with the regional model allows land use and roadway information that was updated in the development of the Edmonds model to be easily transferred to PSRC for the next update of the regional model. Existing Land Use Inventory Existing land use was based on a citywide land use inventory completed for this project in 2008. In order to establish an accurate base map of existing land use, land use was confirmed using assessor records, supplemental aerial photos, and field verification. For the model area outside the city limits, land use was based on regional population and employment inventory provided by the PSRC. The land use is summarized by TAZ, as shown in Figure 3-11.

The trips are estimated using statistical data on population and household characteristics, employment, economic output, and land uses. Trips are categorized by their general purpose, including: Home-based-work, or any trip with home as one end and work as the other end; Home-based-other, or any non-work trip with home as one end; Non-home-based, or any trip that does not have home at either end. The trip generation model estimates the number of trips generated per household and employee during the analysis period for each of these purposes. The output is expressed as the total number of trips produced in each TAZ and the total number of trips attracted to each TAZ, categorized by trip purpose. Trip Distribution The trip distribution step allocates the trips estimated by the trip generation model to create a specific zonal origin and destination for each trip. This is accomplished using the gravity model, which distributes trips according to two basic assumptions: (1) more trips will be attracted to larger zones (the size of a zone is defined by the number of attractions estimated in the trip generation phase, not the geographical size), and (2) more trip interchanges will take place between zones that are closer together than the number that will take place between zones that are farther apart. The result is a trip matrix for each of the trip purposes specified in trip generation. This matrix estimates how many trips are taken from each zone (origin) to every other zone (destination). The trips are often referred to as trip interchanges. Network Assignment The roadway network is represented as a series of links (roadway segments) and nodes (intersections). Each roadway link and intersection node is assigned a functional classification, with associated characteristics of length, capacity, and speed. This information is used to determine the optimum path between all the zones based on travel time and distance. The trips are distributed from each of the zones to the roadway network using an assignment process that takes into account the effect of increasing traffic on travel times. The result is a roadway network with traffic volumes calculated for each segment of roadway. The model reflects the effects of traffic congestion on the roadway network. Model Calibration A crucial step in the modeling process is the calibration of the model. The modeling process can generally be described as defining the existing roadway system as a model network and applying trip patterns based on existing land use. The model output, which consists of estimated traffic volumes on each roadway segment, is compared to existing traffic counts. Adjustments are made to the model inputs until the modeled existing conditions replicate actual existing conditions, Packet Page 202 of 407 Street System August 2009 3-33 within accepted parameters. Once the model is calibrated for existing conditions, it can be used as the basis for analyzing future traffic conditions and the impacts of potential improvements to the roadway network. Model of Future Traffic Conditions Future travel demand is based on projections of future land use patterns and community growth. Based on population and employment forecasts, the City provided these growth assumptions for the next 20 years. The growth assumptions represent the higher end of possible ranges, resulting in a more conservative assessment of the impact of future land use on traffic conditions. For the model area outside the city limits, future land use projections were based on PSRC forecasts. Using the same general process described for modeling existing conditions, the forecasted land use data is used to estimate the number of trips that will be generated in future travel. These trips are then distributed among the TAZs, and assigned to the roadway network. The result is a model of projected future traffic conditions, under the projected future land use scenario. For future analysis under 2015 conditions, a straight-line growth between existing and projected 2025 traffic volumes was assumed. This is based on the assumption that steady growth between existing and planned 2025 land uses will occur. 2015 Conditions without Improvements Table 3-11 presents projected PM peak hour LOS for city intersections by 2015, with existing transportation infrastructure in place. Projected 2015 LOS at the analysis intersections is also shown in Figure 3-12. The following locations are projected to operate below the City’s adopted LOS standards under the 2015 conditions, if no additional improvements are made to the transportation system: Olympic View Drive and 76th Avenue W Puget Drive and 88th Avenue W (deficient under existing conditions) 212th Street SW and 76th Avenue W 212th Street SW and 84th Avenue W (deficient under existing conditions) Main Street and 9th Avenue N (deficient under existing conditions) Walnut Street and 9th Avenue S (deficient under existing conditions) 220th Street SW and 76th Avenue W Analysis indicates that the intersection of 238th Street SW and Edmonds Way will operate at LOS F in 2015. As it is located along a Highway of Statewide Significance, this intersection is not subject to City concurrency standards. However, the City still considers exceeding LOS E to be an operational deficiency, and will work with WSDOT to address it.

Safety also involves ongoing coordination with emergency service providers to ensure access for their emergency equipment. Recommendations to address safety issues are based on assessment of historical collision data, focused sub-area or corridor safety studies, or on citizen feedback. These assessments are described in the following sections. Collision History For this Transportation Plan update, historical collision data provided by WSDOT for the years 2005 through 2007 was compiled and evaluated (WSDOT 2008). All locations at which an average of five or greater collisions occurred per year were evaluated more closely. Table 3-13 presents the three most recent years of collision data for locations at which collision incidents averaged more than five per year (WSDOT 2008). The table shows that the five highest collision intersections are all located along SR 99, with the highest number occurring near the intersection of 220th Street SW and SR 99. An intersection that carries higher traffic volumes is more likely to experience a higher level of collisions. To account for this, and to allow collision data to be more accurately compared, the rate of collisions per million entering vehicles was calculated for all locations that had averaged five or greater collisions per year. Typically, a collision rate at or greater than 1.0 collision per million entering vehicles raises indicates that further evaluation may be warranted. Table 3-13 presents the collision rate per million entering vehicles at high collision locations; and they are shown in Figure 3-14. The locations with the rates at or above 1.0 collision per million entering vehicles are as follows (from the highest rate to the lowest rate): 220th Street SW and SR 99 Main Street and 3rd Avenue 244th Street SW and SR 99 238th Street SW and 84th Avenue W 76th Avenue W and SR 99 212th Street SW and SR 99 SR 104 and 100th Avenue W 220th Street SW and 84th Avenue W 216th Street SW and SR 99 212th Street SW and 76th Avenue W Packet Page 209 of 407 Comprehensive Transportation Plan City of Edmonds 3-40 At high collision locations that are also concurrency locations, capacity improvement projects designed to address operational deficiencies should also serve to improve safety conditions.

Collaborating with community, business, and agency stakeholders, the study sought to evaluate current and future transportation needs along the corridor, identify multi-modal solutions, and identify high priority projects for incorporation into the City’s TIP. Two high priority improvement projects were identified, that are incorporated into this Plan: SR 99 at 228th Street SW and 76th Avenue W – Construct connection of 228th Street SW between SR 99 and 76th Avenue W (three lanes with curb, gutter, bike lanes and sidewalk). Install traffic signals at 228th Street SW/SR 99 and 228th Street SW/76th Avenue W. Install median on SR 99 to prohibit left turn movements at 76th Avenue W. SR 99 at 216th Street SW – Widen to allow one left turn lane and one through lane in eastbound and westbound directions, with 100-foot storage length for turn lanes. Residential Neighborhood Issues Residents periodically express concerns about speeding or a high level of cut-through traffic on residential streets. Cut-Through Traffic – Over time, drivers will tend to find the most efficient route between their origin and destination. When congestion occurs on arterials and collector routes motorists begin to use local access streets as cut-thorough routes. Maintaining the efficiency of arterial and collector routes is the most effective way to avoid or reduce cut-through traffic. However, even with optimally designed and managed road networks, there are times when drivers will use residential streets as shortcuts. Speeding Traffic – Vehicles traveling well above the speed limit on residential streets reduces safety and is of concern to residents. Although some motorists will typically drive above the posted speed limit, the deviation above the limit is typically 5 to 10 miles per hour (mph). This deviation is anticipated and routinely reflected in the safety design of streets and posted speed limits. Speeding more than 10 mph over the speed limit sometimes occurs on older residential streets that have wide travel lanes and an abundance of vehicle parking, which can encourage speeding because the motorist perceives the street is safe and intended for higher speeds. When the cut-through traffic becomes a significant portion of the overall volume on a residential street, traffic calming measures may be effective in directing traffic to another route. The speed of motorists along residential streets can also be addressed by traffic calming. Traffic calming devices are physical devices installed on neighborhood residential streets, to reduce cut-through traffic, and/or discourage speeding. Traffic calming devices are currently in place at many locations throughout Edmonds (see Figure 3-5). These measures have been installed as part of capital improvement projects, as opportunities were presented, and occasionally in response to citizen requests. However, the City does not currently have a formal traffic calming program. Packet Page 212 of 407 Street System August 2009 3-43 Recommended Road Projects and Programs Capital Improvement Projects Proposed improvements are presented in Table 3-14, and illustrated in Figure 3-15. Projects are categorized as concurrency projects, state highway projects, or safety projects. Concurrency Projects Capital roadway improvement projects were developed to address intersection deficiencies under existing conditions and under 2015 and 2025 projected conditions. These projects are needed to improve operation and capacity at intersections that currently operate or are projected to operate at levels below the City’s LOS standards. Concurrency projects applied to the 2015 conditions are those needed to address existing and 2015 deficiencies. Under the 2025 conditions, all recommended concurrency projects are applied to intersections that are expected to exceed the LOS standards. State Highway Projects Intersections located on SR 104 are not subject to City’s LOS standards; however, capital roadway improvement projects were developed to address intersections operations at the following locations: 238th Street SW / Edmonds Way 244th Street SW / 76th Avenue W The City will work with WSDOT for implementation of these improvements, or alternative projects to meet the same mobility objectives. Safety and Other Projects Capital roadway improvement projects were also developed to address vehicular and pedestrian safety on city streets. The City has conducted the circulation and safety analysis for SR 99. According to the study, improvement projects were recommended at the following locations, which are expected to improve the vehicular and pedestrian safety at these locations. 228th Street SW / SR 99 / 76th Avenue W SR 99 / 216th Street SW Improvements are also recommended on the following streets to improve the vehicle and pedestrian safety. 238th Street SW, between Edmonds Way and 84th Avenue W 84th Avenue W, between 212th Street S and 238th Street SW SR 99 illumination Packet Page 213 of 407 Comprehensive Transportation Plan City of Edmonds 3-44 Shell Valley Main Street and 3rd Avenue In addition, the City considers improvement to all modes (bicycle, pedestrian, and transit) in the design of road projects; so all proposed road improvements, even those that are listed primarily as concurrency improvements, will also include elements to support and promote alternative mode operations and safety.

Trigger year is the year by which travel demand forecasts indicates that the location will operate below adopted LOS standards, and thus be in violation of concurrency. Under the GMA, improvements must be in place within six years of the year that a concurrency violation is triggered. 2. Analysis indicates 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 could be implemented as an alternate solution, or as an interim solution until traffic signal warrants are met. 2015 Operating Conditions with Improvements Projected intersection LOS under 2015 conditions, with recommended improvements in place, is summarized in Table 3-15 and illustrated in Figure 3-16. The table shows that recommended projects are expected to address deficiencies identified through 2015. 2025 Operating Conditions with Improvements Projected intersection LOS under 2025 conditions, with recommended improvements in place, is summarized in Table 3-15 and illustrated in Figure 3-17.

The program is designed to assist residents and the City staff in responding to neighborhood traffic issues related to speeding, cut-through traffic, and safety. Implementation of a traffic calming program allows traffic concerns to be addressed consistently and traffic calming measures to be efficiently developed and put into operation. In establishing a neighborhood traffic calming program, the City must take into account the restriction that no deviation from WSDOT design standards is permitted on principal arterials, minor arterials and collector streets without express approval of the WSDOT local programs engineer (RCW 35.78). This limitation does not apply to local access streets, which are defined by RCW 35.78.010 as streets “…generally limited to providing access to abutting property… tributary to major and secondary thoroughfares… generally discouraging through traffic…” Therefore, only local access streets are generally eligible for traffic calming programs. The two main purposes of traffic calming techniques are to: Reduce the use of residential streets for cut-through traffic, and Reduce overall speeds along residential roadways. A key component of any successful traffic calming program is citizen initiation and ongoing resident involvement. The traffic calming process begins when residents gather eight or more signatures on a petition, requesting that the City initiate a study. The City then undertakes a comprehensive traffic study, gathering data on vehicle speeds, traffic volumes, collision history, and nighttime lighting conditions. If the study reveals a need for traffic calming per the criteria set forth in the Edmonds Traffic Calming program (Appendix B), a three-phase approach to remediate traffic issues is used. The first phase is the start of the process, with the residents filing a petition and the City reviewing whether or not the application qualifies. Phase 2 focuses on solutions that can be quickly deployed, including education, signage, striping modifications, and more police enforcement. If a follow up study indicates that these solutions are not sufficiently effective, Phase 3 traffic calming measures are considered. Phase 3 measures, which are generally more costly and require more time to deploy, might include physical devices such as curb bulbs, chicanes, and traffic circles. The need for citizen involvement greatly increases in Phase 3, because each potential solution requires resident approval prior to implementation. Preservation and Maintenance Programs and Projects The City’s transportation infrastructure is comprised primarily of streets with pavements, sidewalks, illumination, and traffic control, including traffic signals, signs, and pavement marking. Transportation infrastructure requires maintenance, repair, rehabilitation, updating, and replacement to maintain serviceability, reliability, and safety, and to protect the public’s investment. Maintenance of existing infrastructure enables efficiency of transportation operations, and reduces the need for more expensive capital improvements. Packet Page 223 of 407 Comprehensive Transportation Plan City of Edmonds 3-54 Maintenance of the City’s transportation infrastructure is provided primarily by the City’s Public Works Department. Activities include the following. Annual Street Overlays – The projects include spot repairs of failed pavement, full surface and taper grinding of pavement, curbing and sidewalk repairs, and minor storm water system modifications. The projects also incorporate traffic calming measures. In coordination with this transportation plan, future projects will include retrofit of curb ramps for ADA compliance, and may include delineating bike lanes and other bike route improvements (see Chapter 4 for a more detailed discussion). Selection of projects includes reviewing the capital improvement plans for water, sewer, and storm to determine if utility improvements are programmed within the roadway segment under consideration. If there are, the projects schedules will be coordinated. The Principal Arterial, Minor Arterials, and Collectors are all rated once every 2 years as part of the WSDOT Pavement Condition Survey. Those streets are assigned a Pavement Condition Index (PCI) ranging from 0-100: -71 – 100: Excellent (only routine maintenance necessary: activities are performed to maintain a safe traffic condition and include pothole patching, patching around utility structures, and crack sealing). -50 – 70: Fair (Repair activities are done within the initial 10 year life of a new pavement helps to prevent potholes from occurring. These activities may mean placing a new surface (2 inches or less) on an existing road way to provide a better all weather surfaces, a better riding surface, and to extend or renew the pavement life). -25 – 49: Poor (Rehabilitation work generally consists of the preparatory work activities and either thin or thick overlay. Preparatory work may involve digging out defective asphalt, base and sub base. A rehab project typically extends the roadway life between 10 –15 years). -Less than 25: Fail (Reconstruction is required as a majority of the pavement or underlying base course has failed and can no longer serve as competent foundation for flexible pavements like asphalt). Under existing conditions, 70% of city arterials and collectors are in Excellent to Fair condition, based upon these guidelines. The remaining 30% are in Poor to Fail condition. Under the ideal cycle, roads with functional classification of collector or above receive an overlay once every 20 years; and local roads receive an overlay once every 25 years. Citywide Street Improvements – The City implements minor maintenance projects to increase roadway life. Projects may include spot repairs of failed pavement, curbing and sidewalk repairs, and minor storm water system modifications. Citywide Signal Improvements – As traffic signals age, their functionality becomes more limited and they become more difficult to maintain. The City regularly upgrades traffic signals to maintain functionality, and to incorporate new technology. Packet Page 224 of 407 Street System August 2009 3-55 Citywide Cabinet and Controller Upgrades – A signal controller is located in a controller cabinet at each traffic signal, and determines phases and cycle length for the signal it operates. Signal controllers are comprised of many types and many manufacturers, and as they age, their functionality becomes more limited and they become more difficult to maintain. The City regularly upgrades signal controllers to maintain functionality, and to accommodate modern traffic control equipment. Arterial Street Signal Coordination Improvements – Coordinate traffic signals located within 1/2 –mile of each other, to maximize the operating efficiency of the overall roadway system. The following specific maintenance projects are also currently planned: -Puget Drive/Olympic View Drive Signal Upgrades – Rebuild signal -238th Street SW/100th Avenue W Signal Upgrades – Rebuild complete signal system and install video detection Packet Page 225 of 407 Packet Page 226 of 407 August 2009 4-1 Chapter 4. Non-Motorized System This chapter provides an inventory of existing pedestrian and bicycle facilities and an assessment of existing deficiencies and improvement needs. The chapter also highlights strategies for compliance with ADA, and provides recommendations for other improvements to address pedestrian and bicycle mobility and safety. Comprehensive Walkway Plan In 2002, the City of Edmonds completed its Comprehensive Walkway Plan. The plan included goals and objectives for non-motorized transportation in the city, in addition to a walkway inventory, a review of facility standards, and recommendations for walkway projects. The goals and objectives include: Goal: Improve non-motorized transportation facilities and services. Objective: Sidewalks. Safe and attractive pedestrian facilities should be provided as an essential element of the City’s circulation and recreation system, as established in the City of Edmonds Comprehensive Walkway Plan. Objective: Sidewalk Construction Policy. Clarify when sidewalks should be constructed as a condition of development. The following inventory has been updated from the 2002 Walkway Plan, and the existing facilities have been evaluated for ADA compliance. Walkway Inventory Pedestrian facilities within the city include sidewalks, walkways, roadway shoulders, and off-road trails. Those facilities are typically more concentrated in areas with high pedestrian activity, such as the downtown area, commercial and business centers, near schools and other public facilities. Figure 4-1 illustrates the locations within Edmonds that have pedestrian-intensive land uses. Packet Page 227 of 407 Comprehensive Transportation Plan City of Edmonds 4-2 Figure 4-2 illustrates the existing sidewalks and walkways within the city. The figure shows that the sidewalk system is most complete inside the core area bounded by SR 104, 92nd Avenue W, and SR 524. Outside of this area, sidewalks are primarily located along roads classified as collectors or arterials. Raised and striped walkways are generally associated with schools and provide safe walking routes. The federal ADA was passed in 1990 and amended in 2008. ADA requires jurisdictions to provide accessible sidewalks primarily through the installation of ADA-compliant sidewalk ramps. The design requirements address various areas of concern such as curb alignment with crosswalks, narrower sidewalk width, obstacles such as utility poles, placement of the sidewalk adjacent to the curb, or the slope of the ramps. Most of the city’s sidewalk ramps were constructed in the 1980s or later. As pedestrian improvements are made along roadway corridors, the City has upgraded sidewalk ramps or installed new ones in accordance with current standards.

Sidewalk ramps were assessed to determine if landing areas and detection warning meet current ADA guidelines. The curb ramp inventory is provided in Appendix D. Of approximately 350 intersections in Edmonds, 42 intersections were found to fully meet ADA standards, and 24 intersections partially met ADA standards. Recommended Walkway Improvements This section presents recommended walkway improvements, which consist of new sidewalk connections to improve pedestrian mobility and safety, and upgrades of curb ramps to conform to ADA standards. Walkway Prioritization Process Major gaps in the city walkway system were identified by the Walkway Committee. To address those gaps, the Committee developed criteria to evaluate and prioritize walkway improvement projects. These criteria were used to prioritize improvements to walkway sections that were identified based on input from public meetings, Walkway Committee meetings, and deficiencies determined from a review of the existing city walkway inventory. The criteria were weighted according to their importance. A system of points was developed to evaluate each proposed project against each criterion. The result was a weighted average score that helps to compare and prioritize proposed projects. Table 4-1 describes the walkway prioritization criteria and their relative weights and point systems. Table 4-1. Prioritization Criteria for Walkway Projects Criteria Weight Description Points Pedestrian Safety 5 How safe is the route for pedestrians?

Walkway sections longer than 1,000 feet are defined as “long walkways” and walkway sections shorter than 1,000 feet are defined as “short walkways”. Using the weighted and scoring criteria, projects with more than 50 points were designated as Priority 1, and projects with 50 points or less were designated as Priority 2. Table 4-2 summarizes the walkways that were considered for walkway improvements by the type of projects (i.e., short walkway or long walkway). The projects are listed in ranked order by the total points and by priority level. Figure 4-3 shows the locations of the walkway projects. Projected costs of the recommended walkway projects are provided in Chapter 6 (Implementation and Financial Plan) of this Transportation Plan. A more detailed summary of each project’s limits, existing conditions, and point tally is provided in Appendix D. Table 4-2.

Project L12 is an L-shaped project in which sidewalks are proposed on either side of Andover Street (the north-south leg), and on the north side of 184th Street SW (the east-west leg). Pedestrian access to transit stops is a critical element of the walkway improvement program. The City will continue to work with Community Transit to ensure that access to transit stops is as convenient and safe as possible. Community Transit offers its support in securing funds related to improving access to the existing transit system and transit facilities. In addition to the projects listed in Table 4-2, a variety of non-motorized enhancements are scheduled as part of the 4th Avenue Corridor Enhancement project. The City also plans to make improvements to pedestrian lighting throughout the city, with a project currently planned on Main Street between 5th Avenue and 6th Avenue. Additionally, the City is planning to update all pedestrian signals to the “countdown” signals, in accordance with the standards set in the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (FHWA 2001) by 2013.

Citizen request for curb ramps should be addressed as they occur, and should be accommodated close to the time of the request unless there are circumstances which would cause them to be deferred, such as a pending construction project that would provide the ramps in a short time frame. Priorities for future sidewalk new ramp installations or ramp upgrades are determined based on the following priority order: 1. Downtown intersections receive priority over other locations; 2. Arterial streets receive priority over local access streets; 3. Intersections receive higher priority if they are near: a. Community centers, senior centers, or health facilities b. Transit stops, schools, or public buildings c. Commercial areas and parks. Implementation of the curb ramp upgrade program will need to occur over time, due to the costs of those upgrades. As part of asphalt overlay projects, all ramps adjacent to the paving work must be upgraded to meet ADA standards and new ramps installed where none exist. Sidewalk ramps will also be installed as part of street reconstruction and sidewalk construction projects. Private redevelopment will also fund some ramp upgrades as part of required frontage improvements. Appendix C provides a complete list of the intersection locations and the prioritization criteria. Bikeway Comprehensive Plan The City updated its comprehensive Bikeway Plan in 2009. The Bikeway Plan outlines a list of improvement projects for the bikeway system; and prioritizes bikeway projects, bicycle parking, and bikeway signage. Before signing the routes, problem catch basin grates are replaced, sight distance problems are addressed, and potholes and other safety hazards are corrected. Additionally, the Bikeway Plan includes maintenance of bicycle facilities. Per RCW 35.75.060 and 36.82.145, all bicycle facilities must comply with Chapter 1020 of the WSDOT Design Manual (WSDOT 2009) which is consistent with the Guide for the Development of Bicycle Facilities (AASHTO 1999). In addition to making project recommendations, the Bikeway Plan states several goals for the bicycle network in Edmonds. These goals are: Goal 1: To promote more bicycling. Goal 2: To provide safer streets and paths for those who bicycle in Edmonds Packet Page 237 of 407 Comprehensive Transportation Plan City of Edmonds 4-12 Goal 3: To provide better access to recreational opportunities for those who bicycle Goal 4: To provide better access to schools for those who bicycle Goal 5: To provide better access to businesses for those who bicycle Goal 6: To provide better access to transit for those who bicycle Goal 7: To provide access to bicycling opportunities in other jurisdictions Goal 8: To consider bicycle facilities and program in all City transportation programs and funding Goal 9: To provide enhanced parking facilities for those who bicycle, making the mode more convenient Goal 10: To provide maintenance provisions for City bicycle facilities The following inventory and recommended bicycle network improvements may be considered as complements to the Bikeway Comprehensive Plan. Bicycle Facility Inventory Figure 4-4 shows existing bicycle facilities within the city, which include bicycle routes, bicycle lanes, trails, and bicycle parking facilities. Bicycle routes are designated along vehicle travel lanes that are shared between bicycles and motor vehicles with signing. Bicycle lanes are dedicated lanes within the traveled roadway that are reserved solely for bicyclists and distinguished through the use of pavement markings. Bicycle lanes may be located adjacent to the curbs or parking lanes. Trails are physically separated from vehicular traffic, and are shared with pedestrians and other non-motorized users. The Interurban Trail, which links the cities of Seattle, Shoreline, Edmonds, Mountlake Terrace, Lynnwood, and Everett, runs through the southeastern portion of Edmonds. Upgrades to the trail are included in the City’s capital improvement program. Trails are also located along the city’s beaches and within city parks. There are also easy connections for cyclists to ferries, Sound Transit’s Sounder service, and Community Transit. Bicycles are allowed on all of these systems; WSF provides a reduced fare (relative to motorized vehicle fares) for bicycles, Sound Transit provides bike racks, and all Community Transit vehicles have bike racks.

The Bikeway Plan prioritizes bikeway projects, bicycle parking, and bikeway signage. The types of bikeway facilities that are recommended projects range from shared-use paths to bike lanes to bicycle parking. Shared-use or multiuse paths are physically separated from motorized vehicular traffic. They are designed and built primarily for use by bicycles, but are also used by pedestrians, joggers, skaters, wheelchair users (both non-motorized and motorized), equestrians, and other non-motorized users. The desirable width of a shared-use path is 12 feet; the minimum width is 10 feet. Bike lanes are established along streets in corridors where there is current or anticipated bicycle demand and where it would be unsafe for bicyclists to ride in the travel lane. Bike lanes delineate the rights of way assigned to bicyclists and motorists and provide for movements that are more predictable by each. The minimum width for a bike lane is 4 feet. However, when parking is permitted along the bike lane, an additional width of 1 to 2 feet is recommended if parking is substantial or the turnover of parked cars is high. With curb, guardrail, or barrier, the minimum bike lane width is 5 feet. Signed shared roadways are shared roadways that have been identified as preferred bike routes by posting bike route signs. A signed shared roadway bike route is established by placing the Bicycle Route signs or markers along the roadways according to guidelines set forth in the Manual of Uniform Traffic Control Devices (FHWA 2001). The Bikeway Plan categorizes bikeway projects into small bikeway projects and large bikeway projects. The distinction between these two categories is the funding sources. The small bikeway projects can be funded entirely through dedicated City funding; large bikeway projects will require grant funding and may be tied to a major roadway transportation project. Projected costs of the recommended bikeway projects are provided in Chapter 6 (Implementation and Financial Plan) of this Transportation Plan. Small Bikeway Projects Bicycle Loops Figure 4-5 shows three bicycle loops of various difficulties and lengths that are recommended along roads that have low speeds and low vehicle volumes. The Edmonds Bike Group helped establish these three bicycle loops. The short bicycle loop has an easy level of difficulty and a distance of 5 miles. The medium bicycle loop is a medium level of difficulty route; it follows a similar route as the short bicycle loop, but has an additional 2 miles for a total length of 7 miles. Packet Page 241 of 407 Non-Motorized System August 2009 4-15 The long bicycle loop is a scenic route designed for experienced cyclists. The total distance for the long bicycle loop is 20 miles with a portion located in the Town of Woodway. Shared Use Lanes Shared use lanes, or “sharrows,” are commonly used to indicate where on the roadway a cyclist should ride, and also to remind motorists to share the lane with bicycles when present. Sharrows consist of a roadway striping treatment, with chevron arrows and a bicycle symbol placed on the outside portion of the travel lane. Approved by FHWA as an experimental treatment (Pedestrian and Bicycle Information Center 2009) and expected to be included in the next edition of the Manual of Uniform Traffic Control Devices, sharrows are a way for many jurisdictions to create low-cost and safe bicycle facilities. The City intends to create sharrows as necessary as it completes roadway projects. Bicycle Parking In planning for bicycle parking, both public and private property needs must be considered. The recommended standard for new commercial developments is one bicycle rack for every 12 vehicle spaces provided. The City considers the following criteria when reviewing the suitability of new bicycle racks: The bicycle racks shall be as convenient as the majority of automobile parking spaces provided. All racks shall be securely anchored to the ground or building structures. Bicycle racks shall be in a visible location, close to the building entrances. Bicycle racks must be designed to accommodate U-shaped locks. (U-shaped locks are designed to allow the lock both wheels and the bicycle frame to a stationary object.) Figure 4-6 shows the proposed bicycle parking locations identified in the City’s Bikeway Plan. Packet Page 242 of 407 Non-Motorized System August 2009 4-17 Large Bicycle Projects Figure 4-6 shows the locations of the proposed bicycle routes and bicycle lanes. The large bikeway projects include bicycle lanes or bicycle routes that can be added as part of future roadway improvement projects. The large bikeway projects are concentrated around two major efforts: creating a north-south bicycle connection between downtown Edmonds and the Interurban Trail, and creating an east-west bicycle connection between the northern and southern portions of Edmonds. The north-south bicycle projects include: 84th Avenue W, 238th Street SW - 212th Street SW 80th Avenue W, 220th Street SW - 206th Street SW 76th Avenue W, 224th Street SW - N Meadowdale Beach Drive The east-west bicycle projects include: Edmonds Way/Sunset Avenue, Edmonds Street - city limits 224th Street SW, 100th Avenue W - the Interurban Trail Other large bikeway projects include: Olympic View Drive, Puget Drive - 76th Avenue W (less steep route) 3rd Avenue N, Main Street - Caspers Street Caspers Street, 3rd Avenue N - 9th Avenue N 9th Avenue N, Caspers Street - Puget Drive Interurban Trail The City is planning to complete the 1.4-mile link of the Interurban Trail between the cities of Shoreline and Mountlake Terrace. The planned alignment runs roughly parallel to 76th Avenue W, south of 228th Street SW. The “interurban corridor” is a former inter-city rail line, part of a nationwide system of similar lines that operated from the 1890’s to the 1930’s. This vital project is significant because it is the “missing link” north and beyond to Everett and south through the recently completed Shoreline Interurban Trail to Seattle and beyond. Locally and regionally this community supported trail will provide safe passage and a healthy alternative to connect homes, work, services, recreation sites and other modes of transportation. The trail lies along view corridors of Lake Ballinger with waterfront access and a respite stop with shelter and information kiosk at 76th Ave and McAleer Way. For consistency in style, the City’s proposed design follows the lead of surrounding communities matching them in 12-foot width, design, historical elements, signage and landscaping. Shared road portions along busy 76th Avenue West and the quieter residential 74th Avenue West will be reconfigured and improved to add dedicated bicycle lanes. Traffic calming techniques will be installed at road crossings as well as appropriate signage.

Transit and Transportation Demand Management This chapter provides an inventory of existing transit facilities and services, including buses, rail and ferries. Strategies to increase transit use including Transportation Demand Management and other transit improvements are then presented. Existing Transit Service Community Transit Community Transit, the major provider of public transit for Snohomish County, operates three types of transit service in the city: Fixed bus route service Rideshare services Dial-A-Ride Transit (DART) paratransit service Fixed Route Bus Service Fixed bus routes are local or commuter services that operate on a standardized schedule. Figure 5- 1 shows the bus routes that serve the city. Table 5-1 summarizes local bus routes serving the city, which provide two-way service between destinations in the city and surrounding areas, from morning through evening. Table 5-2 summarizes commuter bus routes serving the city, which provide service to major employment destinations in Snohomish and King Counties. Commuter routes typically operate only during the weekday morning and evening peak commute periods. Every Community Transit bus is equipped to accommodate wheelchairs. All buses are also equipped with bicycle racks.

King County Metro Transit King County Metro does not provide local service within Edmonds, but connections are available between Community Transit and Metro routes at the Aurora Village Transit Center just south of the city. Sound Transit Express Bus Sound Transit (ST), which provides regional bus service to the urban portions of Snohomish, King, and Pierce counties, does not have an established express bus stop in Edmonds. However, ST express bus service is available at transit centers or park-and-ride lots in the vicinity of Edmonds (Swamp Creek, Lynnwood Transit Center, Mountlake Terrace Transit Center) and can be accessed by Community Transit. Packet Page 251 of 407 Comprehensive Transportation Plan City of Edmonds 5-8 Park-and-Ride Facilities The primary commuter parking facility in the city is the Edmonds park-and-ride lot located at 72nd Avenue West and 213th Place SW. This facility, which has a capacity for 255 cars, is owned by WSDOT and operated by Community Transit. This facility offers bus service to Lynnwood, downtown Seattle, Redmond, Everett, Shoreline and Seattle’s University District. The average utilization rate of this facility is 71% (Community Transit 2008). Many routes also serve the Edmonds Senior Center, Edmonds Station and Edmonds Ferry Terminal. Parking available in the vicinity of these facilities includes a total of 220 spaces near the ferry terminal and 179 spaces at the Edmonds Station. Edmonds Community College also serves as a transit hub, but no public parking is available at this location. Table 5-3 summarizes the park-and-ride lots that serve Edmonds. Table 5-3.

Other transfer hubs include Edmonds Community College and Mountlake Terrace Transit Center. These Community Transit routes connect with King County Metro service at Aurora Village, Mountlake Terrace, and Bothell; Everett Transit in the City of Everett; the Washington State Ferry at the Edmonds and Mukilteo Terminals; with Sound Transit at various park-and-ride lots in the south Snohomish County; and Island Transit in the City of Stanwood. Rail Service Passenger rail service in Edmonds is provided by Sound Transit’s Sounder commuter rail and Amtrak’s intercity rail. The rail station is located at 211 Railroad Avenue and can be accessed by Community Transit. Packet Page 252 of 407 Transit and Transportation Demand Management August 2009 5-9 Sounder Commuter Rail The Sounder commuter rail line operates between Seattle and Everett, with stops in Edmonds and Mukilteo. Through a partnership with Amtrak, Amtrak trains are also available for commuters along this route. Sounder operates four southbound trains during the morning commute period and four northbound trains during the evening commute period. Amtrak operates one additional train in each direction during both the morning commute period and the evening commute period. Amtrak Service Amtrak operates two routes with stops in Edmonds: the Amtrak Cascades and the Empire Builder. Amtrak Cascades Edmonds serves as a stop along the Seattle – Vancouver route. Service is daily, with two northbound trains (8:07 am and 7:07 pm) and two southbound trains (10:21 am and 9:19 pm) stopping in Edmonds per day. From Edmonds, one of the two northbound trains terminates in Bellingham while the other terminates in Vancouver, British Columbia. One southbound Cascades train originates in Bellingham while the other begins in Vancouver, BC. The Cascades route’s northbound service provides connections to Everett, Mount Vernon, and Bellingham in Washington State, and Surrey, Richmond, and Vancouver in British Columbia. Southbound service terminates in Seattle. Travelers who wish to take rail south to destinations between Seattle and Portland are best served by traveling to Seattle to take the Seattle–Portland route. Empire Builder The Empire Builder provides cross-country service between Seattle and Chicago. Its route traverses the states of Washington, Idaho, Montana, North Dakota, Minnesota, Wisconsin, and Illinois. Service is daily, with one eastbound train departing from Edmonds each evening (5:17 pm). One westbound train arrives in Edmonds each morning (9:05 am). Washington State Ferries The Edmonds-Kingston ferry route connects the northern portion of the Kitsap Peninsula and the Olympic Peninsula with northern King and southern Snohomish Counties. The route is 4.5 nautical miles long, and takes approximately 30 minutes to traverse. The Edmonds-Kingston route operates seven days per week year round, with average headways ranging between 35 and 75 minutes. In 2006, the Edmonds-Kingston route carried 4.3 million people, at an average of 12,200 passengers per day (WSF Origin Destination Onboard Survey 2006). A 2006 Washington State Ferries (WSF) survey indicates that in-vehicle boardings were the most prevalent, with about 87 Packet Page 253 of 407 Comprehensive Transportation Plan City of Edmonds 5-10 percent of passengers boarding in this manner on the average weekday. Walk-on passengers constituted 13 percent of all passengers on an average weekday. The WSF survey indicates that during the PM peak period (3 PM to 7 PM), approximately two-thirds of the total passengers on the Edmonds-Kingston route are traveling west to the Kitsap / Olympic Peninsulas from Edmonds, and about one-third are traveling eastbound to Edmonds from the west. Transportation Demand Management TDM consists of strategies that seek to maximize the efficiency of the transportation system by reducing demand on the system. The results of successful TDM can include the following benefits: Travelers switch from driving alone to high-occupancy vehicle modes such as transit, vanpools, or carpools. Travelers switch from driving to non-motorized modes such as bicycling or walking. Travelers change the time they make trips from more congested to less congested times of day. Travelers eliminate trips altogether either through means such as compressed work weeks, consolidation of errands, or use of telecommunications. Within the State of Washington, alternative transportation solutions are necessitated by the objectives of the Commute Trip Reduction (CTR) Law. Passed in 1991 as a section of the Washington Clean Air Act (RCW 70.94), the CTR Law seeks to reduce workplace commute trips. The purpose of CTR is to help maintain air quality in metropolitan areas by reducing congestion and air pollution. This law requires Edmonds to adopt a CTR plan requiring private and public employers with 100 or more employees to implement TDM programs. Programs provide various incentives or disincentives to encourage use of alternative transportation modes other than the single-occupant vehicle. The City promotes TDM through policy and/or investments that may include, but are not limited to, the following: Parking management; Trip reduction ordinances; Restricted access to facilities and activity centers; and Transit-oriented and pedestrian-friendly design. The City can support the CTR Law and regional vehicle trip reduction strategies by working with employers to encourage the reduction of commuter single-occupant vehicle use. Community Transit assists employers in developing plans that meet specific trip reduction needs as required by the CTR Law. Flex time, parking management, vanpooling, and carpooling are some of the available options. Community Transit offers free Employee Transportation Coordinator Training Packet Page 254 of 407 Transit and Transportation Demand Management August 2009 5-11 Workshops for employers affected by CTR. Transportation consulting services are also available to interested employers not affected by CTR. Community Transit also conducts community outreach programs that fall within the realm of TDM. There are three employers in Edmonds that participate in the CTR program: the City of Edmonds, Stevens Hospital, and Edmonds Family Medicine Clinic. Each employer measures its progress toward its goal of reducing single-occupant vehicle trips by conducting an employee survey every other year. Community Transit assists in this effort, and reviews the results to see if the employers are in compliance with CTR goals. Future Transit Improvements Chapter 2 of this Transportation Plan identifies a number of specific goals, objectives and policies aiming at enhancing transit options and operations in the City. One of the City’s goals is to “prioritize and finance improvements for the greatest public benefit, emphasizing transit, demand management, and maintenance of current facilities”. Bus Shelters and Benches Providing additional shelters and benches at bus stops has been identified as a high priority for the City. At all appropriate locations, sidewalk improvement or construction projects will include the creation of boarding pads to allow for shelters. The City will continue to work with Community Transit to ensure that bus stops and shelters fit in with the local street design. Community Transit is also committed to expanding the number of locations with stop shelters, adding 25 new locations each year (on the entire system) in addition to maintaining and replacing existing shelters. Table 5-4 lists the top priority locations identified by the City for bus shelters and seating. Table 5-4.

A Simme-Seat is a double seat that is attached to a bus stop pole. Transit Emphasis Corridors Community Transit’s Six Year Transit Development Plan and 20 Year Long Range Plan describe a network of Transit Emphasis Corridors on arterial streets and highways connecting urban centers in Snohomish County. SR 99 and 196th Street SW are Transit Emphasis Corridors in Edmonds. The long-term vision for these corridors is coordinated land use, infrastructure, and transit planning that will encourage transit market development and will enable effective service by Community Transit. The Transit Development Plan calls for increasing the frequency and span of local service providing east-west connections across south Snohomish County between Mill Creek, Lynnwood and Edmonds including the 164th St SW and 196th St SW transit emphasis corridors. Swift Bus Rapid Transit This process is moving forward on SR 99 with the implementation of Swift Bus Rapid Transit (BRT), which will begin service in fall 2009. Swift will operate throughout the day, seven days a week, providing service between Shoreline and Everett. Swift will operate with 10-minute frequency from 5:00 am to 7:00 pm, and with 20-minute frequency from 7:00 pm to midnight and on weekends. Swift BRT will serve landmark stations located at approximately one mile intervals along the route. The City worked closely with Community Transit on the Swift BRT alignment Packet Page 256 of 407 Transit and Transportation Demand Management August 2009 5-13 and station locations. There are two stations located along SR 99 in Edmonds: at 238th St SW and at 216th St SW. Local service on Route 101 will continue to operate in the corridor. Additional Fixed Route Transit Service The City will continue to coordinate with Community Transit regarding additional bus transit service on Olympic View Drive or east of 76th Avenue N. In addition, the City has adopted a policy (see Policy 8.12 in Chapter 2) to explore future funding for a city-based circulator bus that provides local shuttle service between neighborhoods (Firdale Village, Perrinville, Five Corners, Westgate) and downtown. Edmonds Crossing Multimodal Facility The City is also a partner in the Edmonds Crossing multimodal ferry, bus, and rail facility. Sound Transit is planning to relocate Edmonds station as part of the larger Edmonds Crossing Multimodal project being led by WSDOT. The location of the preferred alternative for the multimodal project in the Final Environmental Impact Statement would relocate the station south of Edmonds marina, near Point Edwards. The project would also improve traffic circulation in downtown Edmonds by eliminating at-grade railroad crossings. The Washington legislature approved $4 million for the project during the 2007-2009 biennium. However, funding for the remaining $122 million is not secured. Packet Page 257 of 407 Packet Page 258 of 407 August 2009 6-1 Chapter 6. Implementation and Financial Plan This chapter provides a summary of the projects, project prioritization, total costs, projected revenue, and implementation strategies for recommended improvements through 2025. Project Costs Preliminary costs for proposed transportation projects were estimated at a planning level, based on 2009 dollars. Estimates were based on typical unit costs, as applied to each type of improvement, and are not the result of preliminary engineering. Annual programs such as asphalt street overlay show projected expenditures beginning in 2010. These planning-level estimates of probable cost were the basis for the financial plan. Table 6-1 summarizes the estimated costs for the recommended transportation projects and programs through 2025. The table shows that the cost of fully funding all operations, safety, and maintenance projects and programs through 2025, as presented in this Transportation Plan, is $103,046,300.

Packet Page 263 of 407 Comprehensive Transportation Plan City of Edmonds 6-6 Revenue Sources Current Sources of Revenue Revenue sources available to the City for financing the transportation improvements are listed below. Grants – State and federal grants may be obtained through a competitive application process. Grant sources include the following: -FHWA – The federal government has funds that are made available to the State of Washington and local agencies from federal gas taxes. The allocations are based on the competitive evaluation of specific projects against other projects within the State and region. To be eligible for funding, a project must be located on a route designated as arterial or collector in the federal classification (see Figures 3-2 and 3-3). Grant programs include Congestion Mitigation Air Quality, Intersection and Corridor Safety, Surface Transportation Program (STP) Regional, Transportation Enhancement Program (statewide), and direct allocations. -Federal Department of Housing and Urban Development – Federal funds are distributed as Community Development Block Grants through Snohomish County. Grants are competitive based on the merits of the projects and are targeted to benefit low income areas. Typically, a project must be located in a census tract or block with a majority of residents with low to moderate income. Through the grant amounts are relatively small they can be used on local streets in residential areas for sidewalk and sidewalk ramp construction. -Transportation Improvement Board (TIB) – The Transportation Improvement Board provides grants using the State’s portion of the gas tax. Projects are selected on a competitive basis and programs vary from sidewalks to corridor improvements. To be eligible a project must be located on an arterial or collector. The TIB is an independent state agency that distributes grant funding, which comes from the revenue generated by three cents of the statewide gas tax, to cities and counties for funding transportation projects. The TIB provides funding to its urban customers through three state-funded grant programs: Urban Arterial Program (UAP)– best suited for roadway projects that improve safety and mobility. Urban Corridor Program (UCP) – best suited for roadway projects with multiple funding partners that expand capacity. Sidewalk Program (SP) – best suited for sidewalk projects that improve safety and connectivity. -Additional State Grants – Other grants available at the state level include, but are not excluded to, Pedestrian and Bicycle Safety and Safe Routes to Schools. Packet Page 264 of 407 Implementation and Financial Plan August 2009 6-7 Traffic Impact / Mitigation Fees – Impact fees were recently instituted within the City and are paid by developers to mitigate the impacts on the transportation system. Real Estate Excise Tax –This is a tax on all sales of real estate, measured by the full selling price, including the amount of any liens, mortgages and other debts given to secure the purchase at a rate of 1.28 percent. The City is eligible to receive proceeds from the tax if they have planned under the Growth Management Act. The funds must be used for capital improvements. The State and Counties receive 0.78 percent and the City 0.5 percent. Motor Vehicle Fuel Tax – The motor vehicle fuel tax is collected by the State and 2.4 cents per gallon are distributed to cities for roadway construction purposes. The money is distributed based on the population of each city. General Fund – The General Fund includes a broad range of taxes and fees such as sales tax and building permit fees. These revenue sources may be used for all City activities. Joint Agency Funding – Edmonds adjoins unincorporated Snohomish County and several other cities. When projects are located in two more jurisdictions, resources are combined to fund them. General Obligation Bonds – These are bonds issued by the City that are financed through future anticipated tax revenues. Parks Funding – Funding provided through the City Parks Department, to be used jointly with transportation funding for pedestrian and bicycle projects. Table 6-2 summarizes potential revenue projected through 2025, based upon current sources and funding history. Table 6-2. Potential Revenue Source Amount Grants (unsecured) $12,080,650 Traffic Impact / Mitigation Fees 6,353,485 Real Estate Excise Tax 4,000,000 Motor Vehicle Fuel Tax 2,000,000 Transfers from Other Funds 2,062,650 Utility Resurfacing 1,795,488 Joint Agency1 8,000,000 Interest Income 511,331 Development Sidewalks 23,021 Parks Funding – Interurban Trail 1,326,000 Parks Funding - 4th Ave Enhancement 2,365,000 Miscellaneous 193,306 TOTAL $40,710,931 1. Assumes joint funding with Snohomish County for the recommended 84th Avenue improvement. Packet Page 265 of 407 Comprehensive Transportation Plan City of Edmonds 6-8 Based upon the total costs of recommended projects summarized in Table 6-1, and the potential revenue based upon current sources and funding history, the estimated total revenue shortfall through 2025 is $62,335,369. Other Potential Financing Options The City will continue to explore new options to fund transportation projects and programs that are important to citizens. Options that could be considered include the following: Transportation Benefit District – A Transportation Benefit District (TBD) can fund any transportation improvement contained in any existing state or regional transportation plan that is necessitated by existing or reasonably foreseeable congestion levels. The legislative authority of a city to create a TBD by ordinance is set forth in RCW 36.73. Projects covered by a TBD can include maintenance and improvements to city streets, county roads, state highways, investments in high capacity transportation, public transportation, transportation demand management and other transportation projects identified in a regional transportation planning organization plan or state plan. A variety of revenue options are available. An annual vehicle license fee of up to $20 per license can be passed by the City of Edmonds TBD, and is not subject to voter approval. The legislation also allows a TBD the ability to collect additional annual vehicle license fees up to a total of $100 per license per year in addition to sales and property taxes, subject to voter approval. The City has already enacted the $20 per year vehicle license fee, which is slated to fund City Street Operations only. Additional TBD funding above the amount of the TBD in Edmonds would be subject to voter approval. If additional TBD funding were implemented, the City would work with PSRC to incorporate projects into the regional transportation so that they would be eligible for funding. The regional and state plans have already identified a broad range of local transportation improvements as priorities, and the multi-modal mobility and safety projects presented in this Transportation Plan are consistent with those priorities. Local Improvement District/Roadway Improvement District –LIDs, enabled under RCW 35.43, are a means of assisting benefitting properties in financing needed capital improvements. A special type of LID is a Roadway Improvement District (RID). LIDs may be applied to water, sewer and storm sewer facilities, as well as roads; but RIDs may only be applied to street improvements. LIDs and RIDs are special assessment districts in which improvements will specially benefit primarily the property owners in the district. They are created under the sponsorship of a municipal government and are not self governing special purpose districts. To the extent and in the manner noted in the enabling statutes, they must be approved by both the local government and benefited property owners. Additional Grants – Revenue projections summarized in Table 6-2 assume that the City will be able obtain future grant funding at levels consistent with what has been obtained historically. It may be possible for the City to obtain higher levels of grant funding than what has been historically obtained. However, state and federal grants are obtained through a Packet Page 266 of 407 Implementation and Financial Plan August 2009 6-9 highly competitive process, and other municipalities are also likely to increase their requests for grant funding to address their own revenue shortfalls, so it is likely that only a small portion of the City’s revenue shortfall could be covered through additional grant funding. Business License Fee for Transportation – Cities have the option of including a fee to fund transportation projects, as part of business license fees. This is typically an annual fee that is charged per full time equivalent (FTE) employee. In order for this type of fee to be successful, cities typically collaborate very closely with business owners, to identify projects and programs for funding that would be of most benefit to local businesses. Table 6-3 summarizes potential levels of revenue that could be obtained by these additional sources, if they were approved by the City Council and by citizens. The table shows that the transportation funding shortfall could be covered by a combination of these optional revenue sources. Table 6-3. Potential Revenue from Additional Optional Sources Source Amount TBD license fee at $80 per license per year1 $ 46,592,000 Local Improvement District / Roadway Improvement District2 15,743,369 Additional grants3 Additional joint agency funding4 Business license fee for transportation $62,335,369 1. Assumes 36,000 vehicles (40,000 population x 0.91 vehicles per capita) for 16 years. The total amount shown is that portion above the $20 portion that has already been passed and committed to fund transportation operations. 2. Enacted to pay for specific projects with the district that is defined. Any funding obtained through an LID or RID would lower the fees needed from the other optional sources. 3. Obtained through application process for specific projects. Any funding obtained through additional grants would lower the fees needed from the other optional sources. 4. Obtained from adjacent jurisdictions in which specific projects are co-located. Several recommended projects are located in areas also under the jurisdiction of the cities of Mountlake Terrace, Lynnwood, Shoreline, Snohomish County, and/or WSDOT. Project Prioritization Program Priority Although all projects and programs presented in this Transportation Plan are important to the City, they can only be implemented as funding becomes available. Guided by feedback from citizens, and also by state laws, the following priority order has been established. 1.Maintenance and Preservation – The City is committed to maintaining existing transportation facilities in which substantial public investment have been made, and which are critical to maintaining transportation mobility and safety. This has also been identified as the top priority by citizens. Packet Page 267 of 407 Comprehensive Transportation Plan City of Edmonds 6-10 2.Safety Improvements on City Streets – Road safety projects are also identified as a high priority by citizens. Some concurrency projects also address safety issues; however, additional safety projects will be a high priority if additional funding is obtained from alternative sources. 3.Concurrency – GMA requires that projects needed to maintain concurrency must be in place within six years of the time that they are triggered by development. If concurrency projects are not implemented, new development that those projects would support cannot be approved. Thus, concurrency projects must be implemented to support planned land use identified in the Comprehensive Plan. 4.Walkway Connections – Completion of walkway connections is consistent with the City’s policies to support a strong pedestrian network, and has also been identified as a high priority by citizens. Completing walkway connections will be a high priority if additional funding is obtained from alternative sources. 5.Curb Ramp Upgrades – ADA requires that the City have a program in place to retrofit curb ramps that do not meet ADA standards. The City will continue to implement curb ramp upgrades in conjunction with street construction and maintenance projects, but completion of the Curb Ramp Upgrade Program by 2025 will require additional funding over current projections. 6.Bicycle Route Signing and Facility Upgrade – The City will continue to incorporate bikeways into street improvement and maintenance projects where feasible, whether they consist of separate bicycle lanes, or marking for shared bicycle/vehicle lanes. However, completion of the Bike Plan, including signing and provision of bicycle parking, will require additional funding over current projections. 7.Improvements on SR 104 (Edmonds Way) – Operational deficiencies have been projected for SR 104. As a Highway of Statewide significance, this road is not subject to local concurrency rules. The City will continue to coordinate with WSDOT to address problems as they are identified, but will not be able to fund improvements on this road unless additional sources of funds over current projections are obtained. 8.Traffic Calming Program – The City will continue to address neighborhood traffic safety issues on a case by case basis as they are identified; however, implementation of the full Traffic Calming Program will require additional funding over current projections to be obtained. Implementation Plan Transportation Improvement Plan 2010-2025 The Comprehensive Transportation Plan serves to guide the development of surface transportation within the City, based upon evaluation of existing conditions, projection and Packet Page 268 of 407 Implementation and Financial Plan August 2009 6-11 evaluation of future conditions that result from the City’s adopted future land use plan, and priorities stated by Edmonds citizens. Table 6-4 summarizes the recommended Transportation Improvement Plan, 2010 through 2025, which is a comprehensive multimodal plan that is based on extensive public input and reflects a major update of the 2003 Plan.

Coordinate with WSDOT on projects to address future operational deficiencies on SR 104. Coordinate with Snohomish County for joint agency funding of the proposed 84th Avenue improvement. If a higher funding level of TBD is put forward and approved by voters, coordinate with PSRC to include projects in the regional transportation plan so that they will be eligible for funding. Coordinate with WSDOT and the FHWA to move forward with the Edmonds Crossing Multimodal Project. Packet Page 270 of 407 Implementation and Financial Plan August 2009 6-13 Coordinate with Community Transit to implement transit investments that are consistent with the City’s priorities; including construction of additional bus shelters and benches, and new transit routes. Contingency Plan in Case of Revenue Shortfall Some revenue sources are very secure and highly reliable. However, other revenue sources are volatile, and therefore difficult to predict with confidence. To cover the shortfall identified in the previous section, or in the event that revenue from one or more of these sources is not forthcoming in the amounts forecasted in this Transportation Plan, the City has several options: Change the LOS standard, and therefore reduce the need for road capacity improvement projects. Increase the amount of revenue from existing sources. Find new sources of revenue which could include additional federal and state grants, additional TBD funding, business license fee for transportation, and/or LID/RIDs. Require developers to provide such facilities at their own expense. Change the Land Use Element in the Comprehensive Plan to reduce the amount of development, and thus reduce the need for additional public facilities; or to further concentrate growth along higher capacity roads that are served by transit.

Implementation of a traffic calming program allows traffic concerns to be addressed consistently and traffic calming measures to be efficiently developed and put into operation. In establishing a neighborhood traffic calming program, the City must take into account the restriction that no deviation from Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) design standards is permitted on principal arterials, minor arterials and collector streets without express approval of the WSDOT local programs engineer (RCW 35.78). This limitation does not apply to local access streets, which are defined by RCW 35.78.010 as streets “…generally limited to providing access to abutting property… tributary to major and secondary thoroughfares… generally discouraging through traffic…” Therefore, the City’s traffic calming program focuses on local access streets. The Traffic Calming Program consists of a three-phase process: • Phase 1 Petition and Review for Qualification): To begin the process, residents submit a petition for local street traffic concerns, and the City reviews the application and investigates the site to determine if the application qualifies for the Traffic Calming Program. • Phase 2 (Education and Enforcement) focuses on education and enforcement solutions, including educational flyers, police enforcement, neighborhood speed watch, signing, and striping modifications. If those solutions are not effective in reducing speed or cut-through traffic, then the process moves on to Phase 3. ƒ Phase 3 (Installation of Traffic Calming Device) consists of working with residents to identify the appropriate traffic calming device to be installed, which could include traffic circles, chicanes, and narrowed lanes. If approved by residents in the affected area, the device is planned for installation. Packet Page 315 of 407 Exhibit A illustrates the three-phase process. Each phase of the Traffic Calming Program is summarized in the following sections. Due to economic considerations, city streets that are ineligible for the Traffic Calming Program include: 1. Streets classified other than local streets, including dead-end streets. 2. Streets scheduled for resurfacing within the next two years. 3. Streets with grades, curvatures or other physical conditions where addition of any device would create unsafe conditions. 4. Streets not meeting average daily traffic requirements (see Phase 1 Qualification section).

Staff reviews traffic calming devices for funding, priority, technical feasibility Staff develops traffic calming solutions with police and fire departments’ approval August 2009 Exhibit A. Traffic Calming Program Process Program applies to neighborhood residential through streets. Packet Page 317 of 407 Phase 1 – Petition and Review for Qualification Phase 1 of the program includes resident petition to begin the process and City review for qualification of the application. Phase 1 consists of the following steps: Citizen Action Request and Petition The program begins when a resident turns in a “Citizen Action Request Form” and a “Petition Form” to show neighborhood consensus of the traffic concerns. • The Citizen Action Request Form, as shown in Exhibit B, identifies the type of traffic concerns, such as cut-through traffic, vehicle speed, and safety concerns present in the neighborhood. ƒ The Petition Form, as shown in Exhibit C, indicates neighborhood consensus that the traffic concerns should be studied. A minimum of eight adult resident signatures from separate addresses on the subject street will be required prior to going forward with the program. City Staff Review City staff will research the issues and acknowledge the requestor if the petition is a candidate for the program. • The issues must be on a local access (non-arterial/non-collector) street. If the traffic concern is on an arterial or collector, City staff will inform the Police Department of the concern and ask for additional enforcement. ƒ City staff will also acknowledge the requestor if the issues have been previously reviewed and action was taken; if previous investigations have deemed the problem unsolvable, and if the problem is part of an ongoing investigation/action. Site Visit and Data Collection City staff will schedule a meeting with the residents at the problem location to investigate the traffic concerns. City staff will survey traffic signing, pavement markings, sight distances, parking, and road conditions along the subject street. • If there appear to be simple solutions to the issues, such as brush trimming, speed limit signs, or channelization, City will implement them as soon as feasible. ƒ If the issues are not easy to identify from the site survey, City staff will collect baseline traffic data (traffic volume counts, cut-through traffic, travel speed, and historical accident data) for problem clarification and for future evaluation. Packet Page 318 of 407 Qualification City staff will compare the baseline traffic data to the following criteria to determine if the petition qualifies for the program. The criteria to determine if a petition qualifies for the program include the following: • The average daily traffic volume on the subject street must be between 500 and 3,000 vehicles per day, because average daily traffic below or above these limits is not suitable for a neighborhood traffic calming device. • If the traffic concern is related to safety, there have been at least 3 reported collisions in the past 3 years at the same location. • If the traffic concern is related to cut-through traffic, the peak hour (AM or PM, whatever is higher) cut-through traffic is greater than 25% of total traffic and greater than 15 vehicles per hour. • If the traffic concern is related to speeding, the daily 85th percentile speed (the speed below which 85% of the cars are traveling) is 8 mph over the posted speed limit. If the baseline traffic data show that the criteria are not met, the City will inform the requestor, record the request and continue to monitor the situation. Packet Page 319 of 407 Exhibit B.

Packet Page 321 of 407 Phase 2 – Education and Enforcement Phase 2 of the program focuses solutions that include education of drivers on existing traffic regulations, and a focus on enforcement of those regulations. During this phase, neighborhood concerns are addressed by informing drivers of safety issues, by using traffic enforcement techniques, or by adding signs or pavement markings to change driver behavior. These solutions can be an effective way to address speeding within neighborhoods by residents themselves. The City can implement these less restrictive solutions more easily and quickly than physical traffic calming devices. It is recognized, however, that these solutions may produce benefits that are only temporary, and that conditions need to be monitored. Phase 2 consists of the following steps: Development of Solutions If the application is qualified for the program, then City staff will use the baseline traffic data, along with insights and suggestions from area residents, to determine which solutions will be used to improve the traffic issues. Table 1provides a comparison of advantages, disadvantages, and effectiveness of potential Phase 2 solutions. Implementation Once the solutions are determined, they will be implemented with the assistance of the neighborhood residents. The solutions would be implemented for at least three months to provide a traffic adjustment period. Evaluation Eight to fourteen months after the Phase 2 solutions have been implemented, conditions will be evaluated by City staff based on new traffic, speed, and accident data. The results will be compared with the previous data to measure the effectiveness of these traffic calming solutions. There are three possible outcomes based on the results: • If the daily 85th percentile speed is 5 mph or less over the posted limit; or if peak hour (AM or PM) cut-through traffic is at or less than 25% of the total traffic or less than 15 cut-through vehicles, no further action will be taken. • If the daily 85th percentile speed is at or below 10 mph but above 8 mph over the posted limit, another Phase 2 solution will be developed and implemented. The City staff will meet with the requestor and neighborhood residents to review if other solutions would be more effective. • The application will move to Phase 3 if it meets the following conditions: • The daily 85th percentile is over 10 mph greater than the posted limit; or • The peak hour (AM or PM) cut-through traffic is greater than 25% of the total traffic and greater than 15 vehicles per hour.

Packet Page 324 of 407 Phase 3 – Installation of Traffic Calming Devices Phase 3 of the program involves modifying the physical geometry of the roadway to install traffic calming devices. Traffic calming devices are much more expensive and more restrictive to local traffic than the education and enforcement solutions in Phase 2. Because of this, traffic calming devices require a much greater level of resident involvement and agreement for implementation. Phase 3 consists of the following steps: City Staff Review If the petition qualifies for a traffic calming device, City staff will conduct a preliminary review with the following tasks. • City staff will score the petition by using the Scoring Criteria shown in Table 2. Because traffic calming devices are much more expensive to implement than Phase 2 solutions, the City will use the score to decide the priority to fund a traffic calming device. Applications will be processed in order of priority, in accordance with available funding. • City staff will identify the technical feasibility and constraints of potential traffic calming devices. The following are technical aspects that will be considered when reviewing the proposed placement of a traffic calming device: • Traffic rerouting. It must be assured that the problem will not shift to adjacent streets. • Adequate provisions should be made for buses (school, metro, para-transit), garbage collection, moving vans, construction equipment, pedestrians, and bicyclists, where traffic calming devices are installed. • Emergency response times and the need to move vehicles through the area should be considered. The cumulative effect of traffic calming devices on emergency vehicle response times should also be considered. • Drainage. It must be assured that devices will allow adequate drainage. • If curbs and gutters are not present, the design of individual devices may need to be modified to restrict drivers from using the shoulders to avoid the devices. • Proximity to other traffic calming devices and intersections. • Roadway surface conditions. Traffic calming devices should be installed on paved roadways with good surface conditions. • Roadway grade. Some traffic calming devices should not be used on grades exceeding 8%. • Effect of the devices on street sweeping and other maintenance activities. • Potential loss of on-street parking. • Potential increase in noise levels due to the device. • Potential changes to community character. • Sight distance obstructions related to landscaping, fences, roadway alignment, grade, etc. Packet Page 325 of 407 • Potential impact to residential driveways. • City staff will define the study area to ensure it includes all residents that could be affected by a traffic calming device. Table 2. Scoring Criteria for Traffic Calming Devices Criterion Points Average Weekday Daily Traffic (AWDT) 500 – 1,000 vehicles/day 1 1,001 – 2,000 vehicles/day 2 2,001 – 3,000 vehicles/day 3 Traffic Speed (85th Percentile) 5.1 – 8.0 mph above posted limit 2 8.1 – 10.0 mph above posted limit 4 More than 10 mph above posted limit 6 Cut-Through Traffic 25% - 49% of AWDT 1 50% - 74% of AWDT 2 More than 74% of AWDT 3 Accident History of Past 3 Years 1 accident/year 3 2 accidents/year 4 3 accidents/year 5 More than 3 accidents/year 7 Parks / Schools Greater than 6 blocks 1 Between 3 and 6 blocks 2 Within 3 blocks 3 Street Conditions Sidewalks on both sides of street 1 Sidewalks on one side of street 2 No Sidewalks 3 Packet Page 326 of 407 Development of Traffic Calming Solutions City staff will hold a public meeting for all residents within the study area. In conjunction with neighborhood volunteers, City staff will organize the meeting and ensure the neighborhood residents are notified of the meeting. The meeting may include following discussions. • Review the effectiveness of Phase 2 solutions. • Discuss the funding and priority of the application among other traffic calming applications within the City. • Discuss possible traffic calming devices and advantages, disadvantages, and special concerns of these devices. • Discuss the entire process for Phase 3 implementation. • Establish workgroups to allow residents to work out the solutions with the help of City staff. ƒ Include the Fire and Police Departments to discuss possible reduction in response times with traffic calming devices, cumulative effect with existing devices, and other issues relating to specific concerns of the neighborhood layout. The workgroups will discuss the problems and alternative solutions with their neighbors and report their findings to the rest of the group and City staff. The City staff will evaluate technical feasibility of the traffic calming devices that are selected by the neighborhood workgroups. The City staff will then determine the preferred traffic calming device with the approval from the Fire and Police Departments. Table 3 provides a comparison of advantages, disadvantages, and effectiveness of potential traffic calming devices. Approval for Preferred Device When a preferred traffic calming device is selected, the City staff will send out a voting sheet to each of the affected residents. For a traffic calming device to be implemented, 60% of the households, based on returned ballots, must approve the installation of the proposed traffic calming device. Installation of Traffic Calming Device Once funding is available for the application, the City will begin the design and construction of the approved traffic calming device. Tasks before the construction of the device are discussed below. Baseline Data Collection Before the installation of the device, City staff will collect baseline traffic data within the study area for future comparison and effectiveness evaluation. This traffic data will be used to evaluate whether traffic shifted from the subject street to adjacent streets and to what extent the traffic Packet Page 327 of 407 shifted after a device was installed. The baseline data will also be used to evaluate the effectiveness of a device by comparison to future traffic data. Installation of Temporary Device A temporary device may be installed for traffic calming measures, such as diverter, full closure, and partial closure. If appropriate, the City will install a temporary device for up to 6 months to provide a trial period. If proposed by the City, the City will evaluate the effectiveness of the device and examine whether traffic shifted from the subject street to adjacent local streets. If more than 150 vehicles per day have been added to an adjacent street as a result of the traffic calming device, the City may modify the traffic calming solution. Maintenance of Landscaping Landscaping can be included in the installation of some traffic calming devices. However, neighborhood volunteers must sign up to maintain the landscaping. Otherwise, decorative paving will be used. In some areas of the City, landscaping is provided through the flower program. Evaluation If proposed by the City, 6 to 12 months after the traffic calming device has been installed, City staff will collect traffic data on surrounding streets to ensure the device did not shift traffic from the subject street to adjacent local access streets.

Bertrand Hauss and the consultants for the project have done a good job of involving relevant City agencies (including Planning) during the process of developing the plan update. This has provided an ongoing process for checking consistency with the planning efforts lead by these other agencies. For example, Planning’s involvement has focused on assuring that the underlying assumptions and baseline data in the Transportation Plan reflect current land use and buildable lands data. To the best of my knowledge, this cross-checking and incorporation of input from other departments and plans has been done effectively. In direct terms, the Transportation Plan update provides updated data and analysis based on existing City plans (including current data on land use, buildable lands, parks, utilities, public facilities, and economic development priorities). The Transportation Plan also anticipates some of the work being done by the Planning Board and other City agencies on sustainability and transit- oriented and non-motorized priorities. This is an important aspect of the Transportation Plan update; it not only reflects current plans but also seeks to be consistent with emerging City plans and priorities. In technical terms, the Transportation Plan update appears to be solidly based on current transportation and concurrency methods and techniques. The Plan provides a thorough analysis of level-of-service and funding options, which should support clear decision-making during the planning period. MEMORANDUM Packet Page 363 of 407 AM-2426 6. Public Hearing on 2010-2015 Transportation Improvement Program Edmonds City Council Meeting Date:08/04/2009 Submitted By:Conni Curtis, Engineering Submitted For:Robert English Time:15 Minutes Department:Engineering Type:Action Review Committee: Committee Action: Information Subject Title Public hearing for the Six-Year Transportation Improvement Program (2010-2015) and proposed Resolution. Recommendation from Mayor and Staff Council approve the Six-Year Transportation Improvement Program (2010-2015) and adopt the Resolution. Previous Council Action None Narrative The Six Year Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) is a transportation planning document that identifies funded, partially funded, and unfunded projects that are planned or needed over the next six calendar years. The TIP also identifies the expenditures and secured or reasonably expected revenues for each of the projects included in the TIP. RCW 35.77.010 and 36.81.121 require that each city update and adopt their TIP prior to adoption of the budget. A copy of the adopted TIP will be submitted to the Puget Sound Regional Council and Washington State Department of Transportation. The Comprehensive Transportation Plan update prepared during 2008-09 was used to develop the proposed 2010-2015 TIP. The TIP document includes a current project list with updated project costs and funding from the Plan. Due to a shortfall in transportation funding, the TIP includes new revenue from the Transportation Benefit District (TBD) beginning in year 2013. The future TBD revenue is based on a $40 increase to the current $20 vehicle license fee authorized by the TBD earlier this year. Any increase above the current $20 vehicle license fee would require voter approval. Staff recommends the TBD begin a comprehensive investigation in 2010 to determine whether the TBD revenue should be increased and a timeline for implementation, if an increase is pursued. A number of unsecured State and Federal transportation grants have been programmed in the TIP. Most transportation grants are competitive, and the success of how many grants are secured in the Packet Page 364 of 407 future will depend on other transportation needs and funding requests in the region. Staff recommends the Council approve the Six-Year Transportation Improvement Program and adopt the Resolution.

Discussion Regarding the Raising and Keeping of Chickens Edmonds City Council Meeting Date:08/04/2009 Submitted By:Jana Spellman, City Council Submitted For:Councilmember Bernheim Time:10 Minutes Department:City Council Type:Information Review Committee: Committee Action: Information Subject Title Discussion regarding the raising and keeping of chickens. Recommendation from Mayor and Staff Previous Council Action On May 11, 1999 the Edmonds City Council held a work session on a Draft Animal Regulation Ordinance. On May 18, 1999 the Edmonds City Council held a Public Hearing on interim Ordinance No. 3248 declaring a zoning moratorium on zoning code enforcement actions relating to the keeping of animals. On November 16, 1999 the Edmonds City Council held a public hearing regarding proposed amendments to Edmonds Community Development Code Chapter 17.35 animals. The purpose of this public hearing was to gather public comment on the City’s land use regulations governing animals. Land use regulations determine how many animals may be kept in each zoning classification. The regulations had not been reviewed for many years, and public complaints had been received by the City in recent years concerning some types of animals (e.g. horses, chickens) kept in single family neighborhoods. On January 16, 2001 the Edmonds City Council held a Public hearing regarding proposed amendments to Edmonds Community Development Code Chapter 17.35, regulation of animals in the zoning code. The City Council was seeking public comment on an update to the zoning code which would allow the following: • INCREASE THE NUMBER OF “DOMESTIC ANIMALS” (DOGS, CATS, ETC.) PERMITTED FROM 3 TO 5. • PERMIT “COVERED ANIMALS” (HORSES, COWS, ETC.) SO LONG AS THEY COMPLY WITH ADOPTED ANIMAL CONTROL REGULATIONS GOVERNING SIZE OF LOT AND HOW THE ANIMALS MUST BE CARED FOR (NO CHANGE FROM EXISTING CODE) • PERMIT FOWL (CHICKENS, DUCKS, ETC.) AS A “GRANDFATHERED” USE ONLY, AND ESTABLISH A REGISTRATION PROCESS TO IDENTIFY THE EXISTING GRANDFATHERED USES. Packet Page 385 of 407 The Council passed Ordinance 3343 an ordinance amending Title 17 of the Edmonds Community Development Code by adding a new Chapter 17.35 thereto for the purpose of regulating the keeping of animals within residential zones, and fixing a time when the same shall become effective. The Council passed Ordinance 3655 in July, 2007, amending city codes related to "poultry." Legalization of Hens was discussed at the May 12, 2009 CS/DS Committee Meeting. Rob Chave noted the lengthy history related to changes in the city’s animal regulations (dating primarily back to 1999), which was the source of the current ban on poultry in the city’s land use code. He noted that the changes made at that time separated the land use regulations (numbers and types of animals allowed) from the regulations addressing how various types of animals are ‘kept’ or cared for (these are in the animal control portion of the code, Chapter 5.05 ECC). He referred the Committee to the memo from Councilmember Bernheim which summarized the proposal, which was to allow up to “three domestic female fowl” in single family zones. ACTION: The Committee voted to forward the proposal to the Planning Board for consideration and recommendation. Attachment 1: 05-12-09 CS/DS Minutes Narrative Councilmember Bernheim has requested that this matter be put before the Council for discussion. Attached are documents submitted by Mr. Bernheim.

Scott Snyder, Office of the City Attorney RE: Chapter 4.74 Community Impact Statements Mr. Chave referred Chapter 4.74 Community Impact Statements to our office for review. In our opinion, the provisions of the ordinance are both unconstitutionally vague and in violation of case law involving adult entertainment issued by both the Washington State and the United States Supreme Courts. Since the date of its enactment, both the State Supreme Court and the US Supreme Court have clarified the limits of a City’s ability to regulate “adult entertainment.” We are currently reviewing the City’s Adult Entertainment provisions. This chapter in addition to being a prior restraint on protected activities, is also vague. As the Washington State Supreme Court stated: An ordinance is vague if ‘persons of common intelligence must necessarily guess as to its meaning and differ as to its application.’ City of Pasco v. Shaw, 161 Wash. 2d 450, 462-63 (2007). The chapter was enacted in 1980 prior to major court cases involving adult entertainment and dance as 1st Amendment exercises. Renton v. Playtime Theaters, Inc., 106 S.Ct. 925, 475 US 41, 89 L.Ed2d 29 (1986), Furfaro v. City of Seattle, 44 Wash.2d 363 (Wash. 2001). Case law requires an extensive legislative record to support ordinances that attempt to regulate the impacts of adult entertainment and an adequate record was not established. In addition, the method used -- potential denial of a right to do business based on subjective assessment of the “family” nature of an activity -- is unconstitutional. “…[P]rior restraint of protected expression is per se unconstitutional.” Packet Page 406 of 407 {WSS729425.DOC;1\00006.900000\} Scone, LLC v. City of Shoreline, 128 Wash. App. 1019 (Div I 2005) [“nude dancing clings to the edge of protected expression”; case involves licensing of dance club]. Please note that the ordinance is designed to prohibit the issuance of building licenses to business activities "oriented toward serving or attracting a special population of customers and not oriented toward activities reasonably related to the health, education, safety and welfare of the family." The terms used in the ordinance are neither defined in the ordinance, by statute, nor in case law. It is my understanding that this ordinance has never been applied nor has any community impact study been conducted. Therefore, we strongly recommend that this ordinance be repealed at the Council's earliest opportunity. We are currently reviewing the City’s Adult Entertainment ordinances to ensure that they contain the maximum allowable protections and will report to you regarding any recommended changes later this month.
