He presented the Proclamation to Arts Commission Chair Greg Banasek who thanked the Council for recognizing the arts as an integral part of the community and the economy. On behalf of the Arts Commission, he thanked the community members who participate in their programs as well as the Art Commission’s partners in those events. He commented on the very successful Summer Concert Series and record attendance at the Write on the Sound Writers Conference. 4. PROCLAMATION IN HONOR OF FRIENDS OF THE EDMONDS LIBRARY WEEK, OCTOBER 18 - 24, 2009. Mayor Haakenson read a Proclamation in honor of Friends of the Edmonds Library Week, October 18 - 24, 2009. He presented the Proclamation to Friends of the Edmonds Library Board President Page Gorud. Ms. Gorud relayed the thanks of the approximately 200 members of the Friends of the Edmonds Library. She explained the Friends provide programs for the library as well as this year they provided furniture for the library, provided a scholarship to the University of Washington Information School, and sent one library staff member to continuing education at the Washington Association of Library Employees (WALE) Conference. Funds for these activities are generated by the ongoing book sale at the library and the annual book sale which will take place Saturday, October 24 at the Frances Anderson Center. 5. PUBLIC HEARING ON THE FIRE DISTRICT 1 CONTRACT. THE CITY COUNCIL WILL CONSIDER THE FOLLOWING SCENARIOS AND WILL SELECT A PREFERENCE: (1) WITHOUT FIRE DISTRICT 1 CONTRACT (2) WITH FIRE DISTRICT 1 CONTRACT (3) WITH FIRE DISTRICT 1 CONTRACT (REVENUE REMOVED) (4) WITH FIRE DISTRICT 1 CONTRACT (SELL APPARATUS; KEEP STATIONS, LAND, AND TRANSPORT FEES) (5) WITH FIRE DISTRICT 1 CONTRACT (SELL APPARATUS-REVENUE REMOVED; KEEP STATIONS, LAND, TRANSPORT FEES) (6) WITH FIRE DISTRICT 1 CONTRACT (KEEP STATIONS, LAND, APPARATUS, AND TRANSPORT FEES) Packet Page 5 of 225 Edmonds City Council Draft Minutes October 20, 2009 Page 3 Mayor Haakenson apologized the scenarios were not available on Wednesday on the City’s website as promised but were made available via the Council packet on Friday. Councilmember Wambolt referred to a question he sent to Finance Director Lorenzo Hines regarding the revision made to expenses and asked Mr. Hines to explain the change. Mr. Hines advised an additional $246,000 was added to the original expenses in Option 1. The change was the result of “re-staking” the Fire District 1 proposal back to the 2010 budget. The 2010 budget for the Fire Department is $7.972 million. Because the modeling spreadsheet is continually updated for CPI, bargaining agreements, etc., he removed all the adjustments in the modeling software for the Fire Department to return to the original budget of $7.972 million. This provides an objective basis from which to measure the savings. He summarized if the 2010 budget is modified as a result of the contract, staff would start with that number. Councilmember Wambolt commented the original budget contained 4.5% for wages but the model reduced it to 2%; that 2.5% reduction was virtually all the change. Mr. Hines agreed, emphasizing that was a fluctuating estimate. When the current forecast is updated, he would consider whether that amount was viable and whether it needed to be raised or lowered. The choice was whether to measure the savings from a fluctuating estimate or a stable base of the original budget. Councilmember Orvis referred to the comparison of Option 1 versus Option 4, which shows the Fire Department budget of $7.9 million, fire contract $6.2 million and 2010 savings of $983,000. One of the differences was the revenue difference because of the loss of the Woodway and Esperance contract which brings the cost to $6.8 million. He asked the reason for the difference. Mr. Hines answered the difference was retaining transport fees of $700,000/year. Councilmember Orvis pointed out transport fees were retained in both Option 1 and 4. Mr. Hines explained this was a comparison of the General Fund subsidy in the current budget with the General Fund subsidy with Option 4. The General Fund subsidy in Option 4 is $983,000 lower than the current situation. The reason it was $983,000 lower was the loss of some overhead costs and transport fees. Councilmember Orvis asked what was included in the $6.2 million. Mr. Hines answered that was the contract amount proposed by Fire District 1 and is based on their estimate of labor costs for 2010. Fire Chief Tomberg explained the $6.2 million was the labor cost to staff stations, plus the overheads, the Fire Marshal and the Fire Inspector, and vehicle replacement. He advised this was detailed in Exhibit C of the original August 24 binder. Council President Wilson referred to Mr. Hines’ response this afternoon to Councilmember Wambolt’s email, observing the previous numbers included the year-to-date actuals and impacted the 2010 outlook based on those actuals and the new numbers did not include any actuals and relied solely on budget numbers. Mr. Hines responded the old numbers factored in estimates, CPI changes, etc. He reversed out those changes to put the Fire budget back to its original state in January to allow measurement of the savings from the original budget in January. In that manner, the 2010 and 2009 budgets are stated using the same budget methodology and rationale and the savings are measured from the budget. Council President Wilson commented these are the budget numbers as of January 2009 and not the actual numbers as of October 20, 2009. He recalled when the budget was developed in August 2008, the outlook changed based on the collapse in September but the final budget was developed in October and approved in November. Mayor Haakenson noted the 4.5% was already factored into the 2009 and 2010 budget. Council President Wilson clarified if the numbers are the January 1, 2009 numbers, those numbers are from a process that began in August 2008 and finalized in October. He reiterated they were not the most recent known numbers. Mr. Hines referred to the 2008 actual column in the current forecast, the actuals as of the end of January 2009, pointing out the spreadsheet was the outlook/forecast but had Packet Page 6 of 225 Edmonds City Council Draft Minutes October 20, 2009 Page 4 been modified to reflect the Fire Department’s original budget to allow an easier comparison of the impact of the proposal on the Fire budget. His intent was to isolate the Fire budget. Council President Wilson commented the challenge with looking at the budget was recognizing that the budget was very conservative and the budgeted savings could be very different than the actual savings. For example, the EMS transport fees, the budget was $700,000 and he believed the actual amount would far exceed that. He asked whether Mr. Hines had addressed his questions regarding transport fees. Mr. Hines answered he had not. He recalled Council President Wilson anticipated revenue from transport fees would exceed $700,000 in 2009. He explained the City has received $440,000 in transport fees through the end of September 2009 and he anticipated the $700,000 amount would be achieved for 2009. Mayor Haakenson asked whether transport fees was projected to increase in future years. Mr. Hines answered it was projected to increase by 2.5-3% per year. Council President Wilson answered that amount was appropriate for budgeting but he was certain the revenue would exceed $700,000 next year because the year-to-date transport fees for 2009 were short at least 1 month and possibly as much as 3. Council President Wilson expressed concern with the Council selecting a preferred alternative tonight when staff had not had enough time to answer the questions he raised two weeks ago. Mr. Hines responded the questions Council President Wilson’s raised in his PowerPoint had been answered. He suggested Council President Wilson and he meet to determine which questions had not been met. Mayor Haakenson acknowledged transport fees would increase in the future. A modest increase of 2.5-3% was budgeted; he viewed anything more than that as imprudent budgeting. Council President Wilson commented the Council had not had enough time or information to make a decision tonight on a preferred alternative. There were fundamental budgeting differences between the actuals. For example, the City did not receive any transport fees in January, 1/12th of the year or 8%. A 2.5% increase was not the same as an 8% increase. Mayor Haakenson responded staff had prepared the budget and was standing by those numbers. The Council could add 10% or $70,000 to that revenue stream if they wished. \ Councilmember Bernheim recalled Chief Tomberg mentioned he wanted to move his office from the third floor of City Hall to be closer to his men. He asked where Chief Tomberg’s office would be located under the Fire District 1 contract. Chief Tomberg answered if the Council approved the Fire District 1 contract, he would be assigned to the Fire District 1 Administration building southeast of Mariner High School and adjacent to the training tower. Fire Station 11, the largest station Fire District 1 operates with the most personnel, is kitty-corner from the site. Councilmember Bernheim asked how much closer that office would be to the Fire Department than his current office. Chief Tomberg answered it was approximately the same or slightly further but it was a much larger station. Councilmember Bernheim asked whether there were plans under the Fire District 1 contract to abandon the costly training exercises at the North Bend facility and utilize the new Fire District 1 training facility instead. Chief Tomberg answered the only training that was done at North Bend that could not be done locally was live fire exercises where a building similar to the training tower is fire loaded and set on fire under strictly controlled conditions. Every Fire Department on the west side goes to North Bend for that training. Councilmember Bernheim asked whether that training could be conducted at the new Fire District 1 training facility. Chief Tomberg answered it was unlikely the Air Pollution Control District would allow that type of burning at the site. The Fire District 1 training facility does have a smoke room in which non-toxic smoke and conditions similar to an interior structure fire can be simulated. Exercises with actual flames, heat, etc. are conducted at North Bend. Councilmember Bernheim concluded even Fire District 1 went to North Bend for that training. Chief Tomberg agreed. Packet Page 7 of 225 Edmonds City Council Draft Minutes October 20, 2009 Page 5 Councilmember Bernheim asked whether the Edmonds Fire Department planned to use the Fire District 1 facility for training if the contract were not approved. Chief Tomberg answered there would be opportunities to use it on Fire District 1’s schedule. Councilmember Bernheim commented levels of service for Edmonds residents under the contract would not change. Chief Tomberg answered the response time aspect of level of service would not change much because the fire stations would be in the same locations, staffed by the same personnel and at the current levels. The level of service of all the other services offered by Fire District 1 would increase via the contract such as enhanced career development opportunities for firefighters, improved training, a dedicated Public Education person, a dedicated Public Information person, three Medical Service Officers, a dedicated Safety Officer, as well as other programs that Edmonds could not provide. Councilmember Orvis commented because both Options 1 and 4 included transport fees, the projected revenue from transport fees did not affect the savings. Councilmember Wambolt commented the discussion regarding transport fees was only relevant in the option where the City sold the land and the transport fees were collected by Fire District 1; in the options where the City retained the land and the transfer station, the savings would be greater if the transport fees exceeded the projected $700,000. Mayor Haakenson opened the public participation portion of the public hearing Lora Petso, Edmonds, commented she did not receive the information until today and wanted additional time for review. If the Council chose to select an option tonight, she recommended selecting an option that retained the transport fees and did not require spending down the ending cash balance. However, if that were done, the contract with Fire District 1 no longer solves the City’s budget issues and the Council was likely to approve placing a levy on the ballot. She suggested allowing the public to vote in February whether to contract with Fire District 1 for fire service at the same time as the levy. Al Rutledge, Edmonds, commented the taxpayers had invested a great deal in the fire station, apparatus and equipment. He agreed with the suggestion to allow the citizens to vote whether to contract with Fire District 1. Diane Buckshnis, Edmonds, thanked firefighters Doug Dahl and Tim Hoover for spending time with Dr. Senderoff and her to review the contract, the RFA concept, and the history of the contract offer. Information provided at last week’s meeting was also very helpful. She recommended slowing down the process and taking another 2-4 weeks to discuss the issue because many citizens were still confused. Hearing no further comment, Mayor Haakenson closed the public hearing. Councilmember Wambolt summarized the options: 1. Without Fire District 1 Contract - business as usual, expenses exceed revenue in 2010; General Fund ending cash balance goes negative in 2011. 2. With Fire District 1 Contract - sell all the Fire Department assets to Fire District 1, place the proceeds in the General Fund to operate the City, lose transport fees of $700,000+/year, expenses exceed revenue in 2013, General Fund ending cash balance goes negative in 2015 3. With Fire District 1 Contract (revenue removed) - sell all the Fire Department assets to Fire District 1, place the proceeds outside the General Fund, lose transport fees of $700,000+/year, expenses exceed revenue in 2011, General Fund ending cash balance goes negative in 2012 4. With Fire District 1 Contract (sell apparatus; keep stations, land, and transport fees) - sell all the depreciating assets and retain all the appreciating assets. Place the proceeds in the General Fund Packet Page 8 of 225 Edmonds City Council Draft Minutes October 20, 2009 Page 6 to operate the City, retain transport fees, expenses exceed revenue in 2011, General Fund goes negative in 2013. 5. With Fire District 1 Contract (sell apparatus-revenue removed; keep stations, land, transport fees) - sell all the depreciating assets and retain all the appreciating assets, place the proceeds outside the General Fund, retain transport fees, expenses exceed revenue in 2011, General Fund goes negative in 2012. 6. With Fire District 1 Contract (keep stations, land, apparatus, and transport fees) - expenses exceed revenue in 2011 and General Fund ending cash balance goes negative in 2012. Councilmember Wambolt commented regardless of the option the Council chose, the City would still need to take a levy lid lift to the voters next year. This was not a permanent fix. He did not agree with taking the issue of whether to contract with Fire District 1 to the voters, remarking it would be a monumental achievement if everyone in the Council Chambers understood the issue; getting 26,000 voters to understand would be impossible. This was a decision for the Council to make. Council President Wilson commented although he could see how he was going to vote eventually, he did not want to be pushed into it. The service level increases were not enough to justify contracting. For example there would be no change in response times and no change/increase in emergency services. There would be public information benefits and it would be easier to calendar training at a training tower the Fire Department already has access to. The question of finances was the primary issue and the Council was still working on that. Council President Wilson pointed out the Council had not been provided any numbers with regard to the passage of I-1033, which polls currently estimate has a 61% approval rate. He anticipated if the City had to fix its General Fund to inflation, at the end of the first five years of the contract, the City would have a $7 million budget deficit. If the Council did not approve contracting for fire service with Fire District 1, at the end of five years, the City would still have a $7 million deficit. This did not solve the City’s financial problems. The issue of ensuring that fire services were secure had not been addressed. Council President Wilson summarized the information provided did not address I-1033, which the voters would decide on in two weeks, nor did it address how to ensure the stability of fire services into the future. He was unable to vote on a preference until the numbers were provided because the question was not about service, it was about finances. COUNCILMEMBER BERNHEIM MOVED, SECONDED BY COUNCIL PRESIDENT WILSON, TO CONTINUE FURTHER DISCUSSION UNTIL NOVEMBER 24, 2009 WHEN FINAL NUMBERS WOULD BE AVAILABLE. Councilmember Bernheim agreed this was not a permanent fix. It was a sale of Fire Department assets in order to generate income to cover a short term gap of 3-4 years. He used the analogy of selling one’s home and using the equity to pay rent, concluding that was a short term recipe for disaster. He anticipated the City would get rid of its Fire Department and in 10-12 years when contract rates had increased substantially, citizens would question why the Council sold the Fire Department. He did not view this as an urgent issue, recalling a very successful plan was developed to place a levy on the ballot. He recalled the levy included funds for the Fire Department. If money was an issue, he suggested placing the levy on the ballot rather than selling the City’s assets to generate short term capital. Councilmember Bernheim commented the current fire service was outstanding and questioned why anyone wanted to tinker with it. He objected to the rush to approve the contract by the end of the year, noting the only thing that would achieve was end of the year advantages for employees. He pointed out it was clear the union wanted new management. He referred to the frustration voiced by the firefighters with funding issues in every budget which led to their desire to get out of the current system and under new management. He reminded the firefighters had contracts and if there were give-backs, it was due to the panic in the economy and the alternative of layoffs. Packet Page 9 of 225 Edmonds City Council Draft Minutes October 20, 2009 Page 7 Councilmember Bernheim summarized the reason he was recommending postponing further discussion was because it was not an urgent financial problem, the Council should be focusing on the levy rather than selling off its assets, the union clearly wants new management, and he wanted time to see the real numbers. He suggested there were alternatives such as working out the management problems. Mayor Haakenson referred to Councilmember Bernheim’s comment that Mr. Hoover had described management problems last week rather than revenue problems and the City’s inability to fund the Fire Department each year. He asked Mr. Hoover if he had mentioned management problems. Tim Hoover, President, Edmonds Firefighters Local 1828, responded he did not talk about management problems; he talked about the annual fight for funding to maintain levels of service. Councilmember Plunkett suggested narrowing the options to a preferred option which would allow the public to learn more about and speak to that option. He did not support a motion to set a date to continue discussion, noting the selection of a preferred option would lead the Council to that. Councilmember Orvis agreed with selecting a preferred option, pointing out staff did not need to continue generating numbers for selling the land if none of the Councilmembers supported that option. Similarly, the projection for transport fees was not relevant unless the Council was interested in selling the stations. He was in favor of retaining the land and the stations. He commented Option 1 was always under consideration and recommended moving forward with discussion on Option 4 which saves the City a significant amount of money operationally. If the Council narrowed the Options to 1 and 4, it was not a final decision but would focus the discussion. He suggested having the contract rewritten to reflect Option 4 and to hold another public hearing on the scenario of Option 1 versus 4 at the next meeting. Councilmember Wambolt agreed with the suggestion to narrow the options. He asked Councilmember Bernheim what new numbers he was waiting for. Councilmember Bernheim responded his understanding was the numbers were not final, referring to an email sent late this afternoon. Mr. Hines explained the email was simply an explanation of why some of the numbers changed; the numbers provided to the Council were final. Councilmember Wambolt commented the fire service contract would not be a solution to I-1033. The solution to I-1033 would be a levy. Council President Wilson responded the question of what the City would do if I-1033 passed and how it affected this decision needed to be addressed. There were other solutions to consider such as creating an independent Woodway-Edmonds Fire District or reverse annex into Fire District 1 rather than contract for fire service with Fire District 1. Mayor Haakenson pointed out if I-1033 passed, the City would be in a better position with a contract with Fire District 1 than its own Fire Department in an amount of approximately $2 million/year. The deficit in 2011 without the contract is $635,000; with the contract it is $2.3 million. He summarized the City would have issues with I-1033 regardless. Councilmember Wambolt clarified Council President Wilson’s point was the City would be worse off with I-1033 and a contract with Fire District 1 because the City would be stuck with a contract payment. Council President Wilson agreed, noting the City would be unable to terminate the contract for five years. He recommended waiting until the outcome of I-1033 was known before entering into a contract that would tie the City’s hands for five years. Mayor Haakenson stated he would prefer a contract for $6.2 million for five years rather than a $9 million Fire Department. Council President Wilson clarified there were many figures in the $9 million that were not direct financial savings such as non-departmental costs. Councilmember Wambolt commented his analysis showed the $6.2 million was definitely less than the City could provide fire service for and less than the Fire Department payroll. Even if the City’s finances Packet Page 10 of 225 Edmonds City Council Draft Minutes October 20, 2009 Page 8 were in tremendous shape, the City should be evaluating this because it made the Fire Department more efficient. UPON ROLL CALL, MOTION FAILED (1-6), COUNCILMEMBER BERNHEIM VOTING IN FAVOR; AND COUNCIL PRESIDENT WILSON AND COUNCILMEMBERS ORVIS, PLUNKETT, OLSON, PETERSON AND WAMBOLT OPPOSED. COUNCILMEMBER ORVIS MOVED, SECONDED BY COUNCILMEMBER PETERSON, TO DRAFT AN AGREEMENT FOR OPTION 4 AND PLACE IT FOR PUBLIC HEARING WITH COMPARISON FROM OPTION 4 (WITH FIRE DISTRICT 1 CONTRACT - SELL APPARATUS; KEEP STATIONS, LAND, AND TRANSPORT FEES) TO OPTION 1 FOR THE NEXT MEETING. COUNCILMEMBER PETERSON SECONDED THE MOTION. If the Council planned to pursue a contract with Fire District 1, Councilmember Orvis recommended it be via Option 4. Councilmember Peterson supported narrowing the options which would give staff and the public an opportunity to focus on one option. If this wasn’t the preferred option at the end of the discussion, Council could focus on a different option. Councilmember Wambolt asked if the intent was to have the contract rewritten to reflect Option 4. Councilmember Orvis answered yes. Mayor Haakenson explained the contract for service did not change with any of the options. The Interlocal Agreement would change if the stations and land were not part of the sale. Council President Wilson clarified the motion was to schedule this on next week’s agenda. He asked Mayor Haakenson if the updated information would be available for public review by Friday. Mayor Haakenson stated all the information would be available on the City’s website by the end of the week. Council President Wilson asked whether that was enough time for the public to review and comment and for the Council to make a decision next week or if Councilmember Orvis envisioned additional public hearings. Councilmember Orvis responded he was uncertain whether he would be ready to make a decision next week but anticipated he could by the November 2 meeting. Mayor Haakenson restated the motion as follows: TO SCHEDULE A PUBLIC HEARING FOR OCTOBER 27 ON OPTION 4 (WITH FIRE DISTRICT 1 CONTRACT - SELL APPARATUS; KEEP STATIONS, LAND, AND TRANSPORT FEES). UPON ROLL CALL, MOTION CARRIED (5-2), COUNCILMEMBERS PETERSON, PLUNKETT, WAMBOLT, ORVIS AND OLSON IN FAVOR; AND COUNCIL PRESIDENT WILSON AND COUNCILMEMBER BERNHEIM OPPOSED. (Council President Wilson left the meeting at 8:18 p.m.) 6. CONTINUED 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.

(8) ADD A TRAFFIC CALMING PROGRAM AND ADA RAMP TRANSITION PLAN AS ADDITIONAL PROGRAMS. (9) CORRECTION OF THE RECOMMENDED FUNCTIONAL CLASSIFICATION OF OLYMPIC AVENUE AND ADDITION OF AN ALTERNATIVE ‘NON-SIGNAL’ IMPROVEMENT FOR THE INTERSECTIONS OF MAIN @ 9TH AND WALNUT @ 9TH. (10) UPDATE POLICIES SECTION Transportation Engineer Bertrand Hauss explained during the September 22 public hearing, speeding concerns along Olympic Avenue were addressed. There was also discussion regarding radar feedback signs as an option to help reduce speeds. Council requested staff obtain information on those signs with regard to their effectiveness, cost, and revenue sources. The speed limit along Olympic Avenue between Main Street and Puget Drive is 25 mph. Several speed studies were conducted in 2005 with following results:  85th percentile speed for northbound movement: 35.2 mph  85th percentile speed for southbound movement: 34.7 mph The 85th percentile represents the speed at which 85% of the vehicles travel at or below the speed limit. In the Traffic Calming Program (Appendix B in 2009 Transportation Plan), a stretch of roadway will be evaluated when the 85th percentile speed is at least 8 mph above the speed limit. He explained radar feedback signs detect the speed of passing vehicles, flashes speeds on a reader board when vehicles exceed the speed limit, and are used as an alternative solution to physical traffic calming devices in the roadway. Drawbacks to physical traffic calming devices in the roadway include delay for emergency vehicles, traffic noise and they are hazardous for bicycles. With regard to the effectiveness of radar feedback signs, he explained staff was unable to do a before/after study of the signs on 220th because one of the signs is out of service. Staff’s research of other jurisdictions found Bellevue has 31 radar feedback signs. Bellevue’s study found the signs resulted in an average speed reduction of 1-5 mph. Kirkland has 6 radar feedback signs and their study also found an average speed reduction of 1-5 mph. He concluded the radar feedback signs were effective in reducing speeds. The cost of the signs per unit is approximately $14,500 (from bids obtained for the Puget Drive Walkway project in 2009). The cost to place signs in both directions on Olympic Avenue would total $29,000. The available funding source is Fund 112. Future funding sources include Fund 125 (REET-2 Transportation), increased vehicle license fee via the Transportation Benefit District (still needs voter approval), and the sign could be included in the grant application for the Olympic Avenue Walkway project. Mayor Haakenson clarified voter approval would be required for a $100 vehicle license fee. If the Council approved the Transportation Plan, they were only approving asking the voters to approve a higher vehicle license fee to fund transportation projects. Packet Page 12 of 225 Edmonds City Council Draft Minutes October 20, 2009 Page 10 Mr. Hauss provided a map identifying the proposed locations of the signs, northbound at 612 Olympic Avenue and southbound at 747 Olympic Avenue. Councilmember Wambolt questioned the cost, recalling the signs on 220th were $7000-$8000 each. Mr. Hauss responded that was the latest estimate provided for the Puget Drive Walkway project. Councilmember Wambolt asked how the speed reductions of 1-5 mph were measured. Mr. Hauss answered a speed study conducted prior to installation was compared with a speed study conducted a few months after installation and again 6-12 months after installation. Councilmember Wambolt pointed out the signs display drivers’ speed regardless of whether they were exceeding the speed limit. Mr. Hauss advised the signs were adjustable to display a vehicle’s speed only when it was traveling over the speed limit. Councilmember Peterson asked if there were funds available in Fund 112. Mr. Hauss answered there were. Councilmember Peterson asked whether grant applications for future projects were contingent on Olympic Avenue being upgraded to a collector. Mr. Hauss answered if staff applied for a grant for the sidewalk project and Olympic Avenue was a local street, the probability of obtaining the grant was significantly lower than if the street were characterized as a collector street. Councilmember Peterson asked whether installation of the signs would reduce speeds and traffic volumes enough to retain its classification as a local street. Mr. Hauss did not anticipate the volumes would change significantly. Jennifer Barnes, ICF Jones and Stokes, responded there was a chance that volumes could be reduced slightly if drivers felt it was a less fast route but most of the criteria for a collector street would be met even at lower speeds. Councilmember Plunkett referred to Item 9 in the agenda title (Correction of the Recommended Functional Classification of Olympic Avenue), and asked if staff’s recommendation was to reclassify Olympic Avenue as a collector street. Mr. Hauss answered it was. Mayor Haakenson opened the public participation portion of the public hearing Bill McCormick, Edmonds, resident on Olympic Avenue, explained ever since Olympic Avenue was improved, the residents’ concern has been speed. He anticipated that changing the classification from local to collector would result in widening of the street and the sidewalk which would encourage speeding. He was also concerned with the eight narrow, substandard streets that intersect with Olympic Avenue, one that is 18 feet wide that serves 10 homes, as well as 5 unnamed lanes that serve 5+ homes that are as narrow as 10 feet. He disagreed that Olympic Avenue provided access to Yost Park, noting the only access to Yost Park from Olympic Avenue was a steep, unpaved path. Don Hall, Edmonds, submitted a petition with 50 signatures to City Clerk Sandy Chase. He explained they had not encountered anyone who favored reclassifying Olympic Avenue to a collector. He was in favor of the radar feedback signs, noting the temporary radar signs on Olympic Avenue have been effective at reducing speeds. He urged the Council to remove Olympic Avenue as a collector in the Transportation Plan. Lora Petso, Edmonds, reiterated her belief that when levels of service were reduced, the notice of public hearing must state levels of service have been reduced. The level of service has been lowered for several intersections along Hwy. 99 and the level of service standard has been eliminated for local streets. Al Rutledge, Edmonds, expressed concern with the proposed $100 vehicle license fee. Packet Page 13 of 225 Edmonds City Council Draft Minutes October 20, 2009 Page 11 Roger Hertrich, Edmonds, suggested the statement in the Plan that Olympic Avenue provides a direct connection between Edmonds Elementary and Yost Park was misleading and should be removed. He noted most of the changes were based on the installation of a walkway to replace the existing walkway which required the classification of Olympic Avenue to be changed to a collector. The matrix indicates walkways will be installed on several roadways, of those Olympic Avenue is the only one with an existing walkway. He questioned the expenditure of $1 million to replace 6,000 feet of an existing walkway with a 5-foot wide sidewalk and curb and recommended installing sidewalks other places in the City where there were no sidewalks. He also recommended retaining the local street designation of Olympic Avenue, remarking it was only a device to get money. Hearing no further comment, Mayor Haakenson closed the public hearing. Councilmember Wambolt agreed with Mr. Hertrich’s comment that it appeared the change in the designation of Olympic Avenue was necessary to enhance the probability of obtaining grants. He also agreed with his comment about spending money to widen a sidewalk on a street that already has a sidewalk when there were many streets in the City without sidewalks. He agreed with the comment that Olympic Avenue was not a direct connection to Yost Park. Mr. Hauss responded all the walkway projects in the Walkway Plan were identified by the Walkway Committee who evaluated many different walkways with regard to several criteria including safety and speeding. The sidewalk on Olympic Avenue was identified because it currently has a rolled curb and due to the high speeds, particularly northbound. In regard to upgrading Olympic Avenue to obtain grant funds, Mr. Hauss explained during the last public hearing, staff submitted a report that contained detailed reasons for the upgrade including that it already serves as a collector based on the average daily traffic, high non-motorized usage, street length, street spacing and street connectivity. In 2004 there were 1,920 vehicle trips/day; the typical range for a collector street is 1,000 and 5,000. He summarized there were numerous reasons for the upgrade, not only to enhance the probability of obtaining grant funds. Councilmember Wambolt commented there was more that could be done to slow traffic, pointing out speeding occurred throughout the City because there were not enough resources to control it. In order to make a record regarding Ms. Petso’s comment, City Attorney Scott Snyder explained the advertisement that appeared in the newspaper states as Item 2 of this agenda item, Base Concurrency Analysis and Recommendation on Updated Citywide Travel Demand Forecasting Model and Updated Level of Service Standards. He asked the consultant to explain why that was an accurate description of what occurred. Ms. Barnes responded there was an update to several components of the level of service standards, some higher, some lower. For SR 524, the City received direction from WSDOT to hold the standard to the classification of Highway of Regional Significance, LOS E. Historically the level of service standard on that roadway was D; as part of this update there was a drop in the level of service standard from D to E to comply with WSDOT’s direction. Ms. Barnes explained SR 99 was not held to any standard in the previous Plan. Consistent with WSDOT’s direction, a LOS E was also applied to SR 99 because the portion north of SR 104 is also a Highway of Regional Significance. With regard to local streets, the policy contains a LOS B for local access streets; however, none of the City’s concurrency intersections are local streets, thus the LOS B has never been applied. The Traffic Calming Program proposed as part of the update was a more appropriate way to address traffic volumes and speeds. The result of applying concurrency standards would be a recommendation to increase capacity such as widening the roadway to accommodate increased traffic volumes. Councilmember Orvis recalled he voted against the Transportation Plan in 2002 due to the upgrade of local streets to arterials. He explained homeowners may have purchased their home on a street where Packet Page 14 of 225 Edmonds City Council Draft Minutes October 20, 2009 Page 12 their children could safely play in the front yard; over time the street became what is effectively an arterial and now their grandchildren cannot safely play in the yard. If he were that homeowner, he would not want the street reclassified so that funds for sidewalks could be obtained, he would want it addressed via traffic calming, even paying more taxes via a vehicle license fee. He voiced his objection to any reclassifications. COUNCILMEMBER PETERSON MOVED, SECONDED BY COUNCILMEMBER BERNHEIM, TO APPROVE THE 2009 COMPREHENSIVE TRANSPORTATION PLAN AND BEGIN AN INVESTIGATION IN 2010 FOR ADDITIONAL REVENUE FROM THE TRANSPORTATION BENEFIT DISTRICT. Councilmember Plunkett commented Olympic Avenue was a long, wide street that encouraged speeding. He was concerned that changing the classification of Olympic Avenue would allow future staffs to widen the roadway, increase the speed limit or add another lane. COUNCILMEMBER PLUNKETT MOVED, SECONDED BY COUNCILMEMBER WAMBOLT, TO AMEND THE PLAN TO CHANGE OLYMPIC AVENUE FROM THE RECOMMENDED COLLECTOR BACK TO A LOCAL STREET. AMENDMENT CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY. (Council President Wilson was not present for the vote.) Councilmember Orvis suggested changing the classification of all the proposed arterial upgrades to their existing classification. He advised a list of the proposed upgrades was contained on page 3-8. Mayor Haakenson pointed out that change would affect grant funding. Councilmember Plunkett asked if there had been any public testimony regarding the other street upgrades. Councilmember Orvis questioned whether there would have been if the residents on those streets had been alerted. Mayor Haakenson pointed out this was the third public hearing on the Transportation Plan. COUNCILMEMBER ORVIS MOVED, SECONDED BY COUNCILMEMBER WAMBOLT, THAT ALL THE RECOMMENDED HIGHER CLASSIFICATIONS BE CHANGED BACK TO THEIR CURRENT CLASSIFICATION. Councilmember Bernheim commented the Council had not heard the same concerns from residents on the other streets. He pointed out this Plan could be amended in the future if necessary. Councilmember Plunkett commented the Council was not aware of how the residents on those streets felt about the change; some may be in favor of it. Councilmember Peterson clarified there was no plan to increase the speed limit on any of the streets where the classification would be changed from local to collector. Mr. Hauss agreed. Mayor Haakenson advised Council approval was required to increase a speed limit. He did not recall any change in a speed limits in the years he had served on the Council or as Mayor. Councilmember Wambolt emphasized changing the classification did not change how the street was used. For example, the Plan proposes changing Dayton Street between 5th Avenue and 9th Avenue from a local street to a collector. A resident in that area, his observation was that section was a racetrack. THE VOTE ON THE AMENDMENT FAILED (1-5), COUNCILMEMBER ORVIS VOTING YES. (Council President Wilson was not present for the vote.) THE VOTE ON THE MAIN MOTION AS AMENDED CARRIED (5-1), COUNCILMEMBER ORVIS VOTING NO. (Council President Wilson was not present for the vote.) Packet Page 15 of 225 Edmonds City Council Draft Minutes October 20, 2009 Page 13 7. PUBLIC HEARING REGARDING THE 2008 PARKS COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AMENDMENT OF THE 2001 PARKS PLAN. IN ADDITION TO A WIDE VARIETY OF MINOR CHANGES, THE 2008 PARKS PLAN WOULD IMPLEMENT THE FOLLOWING CHANGES TO THE 2001 PARKS PLAN: (1) REPLACE RECOMMENDATION TO DEVELOP A YEAR-ROUND 50-METER INDOOR POOL WITH AMENITIES AND RETENTION OF YOST POOL AS A SEASONAL OUTDOOR POOL WITH A FEASIBILITY STUDY TO EXAMINE YOST POOL AND OTHER COMMUNITY OPTIONS FOR AN AQUATICS FACILITY. THE PROPOSED FEASIBILITY STUDY WOULD PROVIDE INFORMATION ON WHICH TO BASE A FUTURE COURSE OF ACTION. (2) “CONNECTIONS” WAS ADDED AS AN UNDERLYING THEME FOR THE PLAN AND A NEW SECTION FOCUSES ON IMPLEMENTING CONNECTIVITY THROUGHOUT THE PLAN. (3) THE 2008 PLAN CONTAINS AN EXECUTIVE SUMMARY NOT CONTAINED IN THE 2001 PLAN. THE EXECUTIVE SUMMARY CONTAINS NEW LANGUAGE STRESSING THE BENEFITS AND IMPORTANCE OF THE PARKS, RECREATION AND CULTURAL RESOURCES AND ASSETS TO THE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT, PHYSICAL HEALTH AND OVERALL QUALITY OF LIFE OF THE CITY. (4) THE PLAN AND EXECUTIVE SUMMARY INCLUDE POTENTIAL ACQUISITION AND DEVELOPMENT OF PROPERTIES FOR PUBLIC PURPOSES IN THE DOWNTOWN WATERFRONT ACTIVITY CENTER IN BOTH THE EXECUTIVE SUMMARY AND AT OTHER PLACES WITHIN THE PLAN. (5) THE 2008 PLAN REMOVES CULTURAL SERVICES TO A SEPARATE ELEMENT IN ORDER TO RECOGNIZE AND BUILD ON EDMONDS’ IDENTITY AS A CULTURAL DESTINATION. CROSS REFERENCES TO THE COMMUNITY CULTURAL PLAN AND STREETSCAPE PLAN ARE INCLUDED. (6) IN ORDER TO RECOGNIZE THE LACK OF LARGE TRACTS OF LAND AND THE EXPENSE OF ACQUIRING NEW LAND WITHIN THE CITY AS IT APPROACHES “BUILD OUT,” THE 2008 PLAN PLACES A STRONGER EMPHASIS ON IMPROVING THE UTILITY OF EXISTING FACILITIES AND WORKING WITH PARTNERS IN OVERLAPPING AND ADJACENT JURISDICTIONS. (7) THE 2008 PLAN CHANGES THE METHODOLOGY AND PRESENTATION OF LEVEL OF SERVICE BY FACILITY TYPE PRESENTED IN THE 2001 PLAN. CHANGES ALSO ADDRESS CURRENT FINANCIAL CONSTRAINTS AND STATE THE CITY’S LONG-TERM ASPIRATIONAL GOAL OF REACHING RECOMMENDED NATIONAL STANDARDS. (8) THE 2008 PLAN REVISES AND UPDATES THE CITY’S PARK LAND INVENTORY TO REFLECT ACQUISITIONS AND DELETE EXPIRED OR TERMINATED INTERLOCAL AGREEMENTS. City Attorney Scott Snyder explained the Growth Management Hearings Board (GMHB) remanded the City Council’s approval of the 2008 Plan in order to have another public hearing and obtain a recommendation from the Hearing Examiner regarding an Interlocal Agreement termination. The matter was remanded to the Council because the prior generic notice did not conform to the GMHB’s requirements. A more compete notice has been provided as shown on page 1 of the Item 7 packet. Mr. Snyder explained the Council’s substantive decisions were upheld by the Board. If the Council wished to make any changes after hearing from the public, the Council was free to do so but was not obligated to change the prior decision. Final action cannot be taken until a recommendation is provided from the Hearing Examiner regarding the Hickman Park, former Sherwood Elementary, Interlocal Agreement ballfield maintenance contract. Final action will need to be taken by early December in order to report to the GMHB. Parks & Recreation Director Brian McIntosh explained although the GMHB found the City Council’s unanimous decision to adopt the Plan valid within the Council’s legislative discretion, the Board concluded that more effective notice of the amendments under consideration should be given. For that reason, notice of this hearing was published on October 4. The updated Parks Plan is a general plan with Packet Page 16 of 225 Edmonds City Council Draft Minutes October 20, 2009 Page 14 input from citizens, staff, consultant, Planning Board and Council that was collected, analyzed and compiled between April 2007 and November 2008. In addition to a variety of minor changes made between 2001 and the end of the review process in 2008, the Plan implements the eight core changes identified in the agenda item title. He listed the eight changes contained in the agenda title, commenting the list was not inclusive of all the revisions but were the changes staff identified as major changes. For Councilmember Bernheim, Mr. McIntosh advised the study referred to in Item 1 had been completed since the plan was adopted in November 2008. Mayor Haakenson opened the public participation portion of the public hearing Lora Petso, Edmonds, explained she was still concerned about the reduction of level of service in the Park Plan as well as that it was not properly noticed. There was still no notice of a reduction in level of service, only a claimed change in methodology and presentation of level of service. She explained there had been a change; level of service was previously identified via park acreage per 1,000 citizens, that methodology was still used, however now there was less park acreage per 1,000 citizens. She was concerned with giving away the Sherwood Park playfields. With regard to effective notice, she pointed out the GMHB’s footnote contained a specific reference that the Plan generally reduced level of service. When the Council reconsidered the Plan after the Hearing Examiner’s recommendation, she recommended the reduction in the level of service be included in the notice. With regard to the Hearing Examiner meeting, she advised there was a Land Use Sign on the property but it was blank. The GMHB also required the City to demonstrate consistency with its Comprehensive Plan policy on abandonment of public facilities. The policy specifically states no park shall be abandoned until the Hearing Examiner has reviewed and reported to the City Council. She disagreed the Interlocal Agreement was terminated by the City and referenced the March 20, 2007 Council minutes. Paragraph 1.5 of the contract provides the agreement may be terminated only upon written agreement of the parties, executed in the same manner as provided by law for the execution of this agreement. The law requires approval by the legislative body. The Board found by adopting this Plan, the City is abandoning a park; although she preferred the Council not abandon a park, if they were, that should be clearly stated. Al Rutledge, Edmonds, advised the eight changes described by Mr. McIntosh did not include the Hearing Examiner’s decision regarding the lights at Meadowdale High School. He expressed support for a pool. Roger Hertrich, Edmonds, expressed concern with Item 6 (In order to recognize the lack of large tracts of land and the expense of acquiring new land within the City as it approaches “build out,” the 2008 Plan places a stronger emphasis on improving the utility of existing facilities and working with partners in overlapping and adjacent jurisdictions), and questioned whether the park acreage to citizen ratio was less than the previous ratio. He recommended as the City became denser, there needed to be more park facilities. He expressed concern that no grant funds were sought for the $500,000 purchase of waterfront property. He advised the Plan did not identify an area in the mid-waterfront, the “blue dot” as a possible future park. Hearing no further comment, Mayor Haakenson closed the public hearing. Councilmember Bernheim asked about the abandonment of Sherwood Park. He recalled in 2007 the Council was presented an opportunity to ratify the cancellation of the Interlocal Agreement and the Council voted unanimously against it. Mr. Snyder clarified the vote was 3-3. He explained the Board found no evidence in the record to show that the procedure in the Comprehensive Plan had been followed. They also noted the term “park” was not defined. The former Park Plan included a need for Neighborhood Parks, an inventory, and an Interlocal Agreement to maintain two playfields on the Sherwood Elementary site. The City Council over a period of years purchased a 5.5 acre park. The Packet Page 17 of 225 Edmonds City Council Draft Minutes October 20, 2009 Page 15 Interlocal Agreement that obligated the City with Snohomish County to maintain the playfields expired. The County and School District terminated the Interlocal Agreement to maintain the two playfields, letting the City off its obligation and the Council chose not to act with regard to that Interlocal Agreement. The property is no longer owned by the School District, the City met the prior Park Plan’s declaration of need for a Neighborhood Park. The Park Plan that the Council unanimously approved deletes the Interlocal Agreement and inserts the 5.5 acre Hickman Park. Mr. Snyder advised the Plan would be presented to the Council for a final public hearing and ratification of the prior adoption of the Parks Plan with the Hearing Examiner’s recommendation. The Hearing Examiner will provide a recommendation regarding whether the termination of the Interlocal Agreement was consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. The new Plan has the new Neighborhood Park but the record does not indicate the Hearing Examiner provided a recommendation. Councilmember Bernheim asked why a reduction in the level of service was not announced. Mr. Snyder answered the notice states the 2008 Plan changes the methodology and presentation of level of service by facility type. Level of service as used in the Park Plan was not a concurrency level of service and the Board agreed. This was not a reduction in a level of service that results in a development fee or requirement. Councilmember Bernheim agreed park land should be increased as the City’s population increased. He asked whether adoption of the Plan included an endorsement that parks were less likely to be acquired in the future. Mr. Snyder responded the Plan identifies needs for facilities and parks by acreage but does not designate specific parcels for acquisition. The Council retains the discretion to purchase land as it becomes available. Designating a parcel for park acquisition devalues the property and could force the City into a takings situation. Councilmember Wambolt referred to Item 6 mentioned by Mr. Hertrich, noting that language did not state the City would not purchase more land, it stated there was not a great deal of opportunity to purchase land. Rather than do nothing, the City would improve existing parks and if land became available the priority was to purchase land on the waterfront. Mr. McIntosh answered there were no restrictions on the purchase of property. The “blue dot” Mr. Hertrich referred to was a “starburst” that represents the Downtown Activity Center. Mr. Snyder requested the Council advise if there were any changes to be made to the plan. The Plan will be presented to the Council for a final public hearing and ratification after the Hearing Examiner’s November 4 hearing and recommendation. 8A. PUBLIC HEARING ON THE PLANNING BOARD RECOMMENDATION TO AMEND PROVISIONS OF SECTION 17.35.030, KEEPING OF DOMESTICATED ANIMALS IN RESIDENTIAL ZONES, TO ADD A NEW SUBPARAGRAPH D. RELATING TO FEMALE DOMESTIC CHICKENS. Planning Manager Rob Chave explained the Planning Board took testimony and considered input from the City Attorney as well as the Police Department. The Planning Board concluded it was appropriate to amend the code to allow keeping of up to three female chickens or hens on properties developed with single family residential uses. The proposed code amendment would accomplish that recommendation. Mayor Haakenson opened the public participation portion of the public hearing Joan Bloom, Edmonds, expressed support for the proposed change. She recalled the origin of the cat ordinance was a complaint about a cat attacking quail that were kept by a neighbor. She anticipated residents would house their chickens in a manner that protected them from predators but feared this would Packet Page 18 of 225 Edmonds City Council Draft Minutes October 20, 2009 Page 16 result in a complaint about a cat attacking a chicken. She recommended the Council revisit the cat ordinance since it was not being enforced. Hearing no further comment, Mayor Haakenson closed the public hearing. COUNCILMEMBER BERNHEIM MOVED, SECONDED BY COUNCILMEMBER PLUNKETT, TO APPROVE ORDINANCE NO. 3759 – AMENDING THE PROVISIONS OF SECTION 17.35.030 KEEPING OF DOMESTICATED ANIMALS IN RESIDENTIAL ZONES, TO ADD A NEW SUBPARAGRAPH D. RELATING TO FEMALE DOMESTIC CHICKENS, AND FIXING A TIME WHEN THE SAME SHALL BECOME EFFECTIVE. Councilmember Wambolt expressed support for the ordinance, advising the only input he received from citizens was in favor of the ordinance. Councilmember Orvis expressed support for the ordinance, noting citizens were interested in keeping chickens and he had not heard any objection. Councilmember Peterson commented although this was not on the Council’s Sustainability Agenda, it fit with the goal of making Edmonds a progressive thinking, environmentally aware and green city. MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY. (Council President Wilson was not present for the vote.) 8B. AUTHORIZE STAFF TO REMOVE FOUR TREES AT THE NORTH CORNER OF 5TH & DAYTON. COUNCILMEMBER WAMBOLT MOVED, SECONDED BY COUNCILMEMBER PETERSON, THAT AS SOON AS POSSIBLE STAFF REMOVE THE FOUR TREES AT THE NORTHWEST AND NORTHEAST CORNERS OF 5TH & DAYTON. Councilmember Wambolt explained he was proposing this motion as a result of the damage that occurred Saturday afternoon when a 20-foot section of tree fell, narrowly missing a car. He noted the tree did not appear to be rotten and there was only a slight wind at the time this occurred. If those trees broke in a slight wind, he was concerned with their stability this winter. He concluded he made a mistake by voting against this action on September 22 and the incident on Saturday resulted in his reconsidering their removal. Councilmember Peterson recalled there had been recommendations from staff as well as from outside consultants regarding these trees. He asked if the City was more liable for ignoring recommendations if another incident occurred and a person was injured or property damaged. City Attorney Scott Snyder answered a property owner typically had no liability for damage caused by a tree if they had no reason to believe it was damaged or diseased. When there was notice, negligence standards applied. With staff’s recommendations regarding the limited area for roots, it was more likely the City would be held liable for damage. The City was provided information from WCIA regarding how they would approach liability in this situation. Councilmember Peterson asked if the City would be at risk for WCIA refusing a claim because the City did not heed the advice of experts. Mr. Snyder answered generally the City had a duty to participate reasonably in its defense. The Council had a great deal of discretion regarding street trees. The City has a solid claims history and it was unlikely this would trigger the City’s expulsion. Councilmember Bernheim advised he would vote against the removal on principle. He was opposed to taking official Council action with inadequate input and sufficient notice. He did not have his materials and the only facts he had regarding the incident was the email from Councilmember Wambolt. He Packet Page 19 of 225 Edmonds City Council Draft Minutes October 20, 2009 Page 17 referred to Councilmember Wambolt’s comment that the tree did not appear to be diseased, advising tree branches falling in a windstorm were random acts of God and the City could not remove all the trees to avoid that happening. He questioned what would be planted as a replacement. The Street Tree Plan calls for incremental replacement of trees, not wholesale replacement. He was unconvinced that administration or staff recognized the value to the economy and the community of healthy, vigorous, replacement trees. Councilmember Bernheim commented the recently planted trees in front of Bank of America at 3rd & Main were spindly and pathetic looking. He recommended rejecting the principle of pre-emptive maintenance, identifying trees for removal that might become a problem in the future, advising there were other methods of enhancing pedestrian safety. He was in favor of taking care of the trees appropriately and was willing to consider the removal at a future meeting. Councilmember Wambolt advised the trees in front of Bank of America were on the bank’s property. He questioned how many times the Council needed to discuss the trees to understand the issues. The Council was provided information on September 22 and the public provided their input. He recalled the two arborists said the trees were a species that was susceptible to this type of breakage. With regard to the size of the trees, he recalled staff had identified a replacement tree. Parks & Recreation Director Brian McIntosh responded the trees would be replaced with the tree recommended for that intersection, Red October Glory. He advised staff would obtain the largest caliper tree that would fit in the hole. This would provide symmetry at the intersection; the other two corners already have Red October Glory trees. Councilmember Wambolt pointed out the trees planted at the corner near Bank of Washington last year have grown tremendously. UPON ROLL CALL, MOTION TIED (3-3), COUNCILMEMBERS WAMBOLT, OLSON AND PETERSON IN FAVOR; AND COUNCILMEMBERS ORVIS, BERNHEIM AND PLUNKETT OPPOSED. MAYOR HAAKENSON VOTED YES AND THE MOTION CARRIED. (Council President Wilson was not present for the vote.) 9. AUDIENCE COMMENTS Al Rutledge, Edmonds, reported he attended former Councilmember John Nordquist’s service along with three other former Councilmembers. Mr. Nordquist was a Lake Ballinger area resident for a number of years. Next, he encouraged the public to attend the Friends of the Edmonds Library Book Sale on Saturday at the Frances Anderson Center. He referred to the November 4 Hearing Examiner meeting and questioned whether the same Hearing Examiner could handle this case again. George Murray, Edmonds, commented Option 1 with regard to the Fire District 1 contract was not possible as there was an issue with the firefighters themselves that needed to be resolved. His understanding was Fire District 1 had approached the City; however, in Tim Hoover’s presentation last week, it was apparent the firefighters want to leave Edmonds for Fire District 1. He recommended determining what the firefighters needed and what problem drove them to Fire District 1. He preferred the firefighters be in a neutral position which would allow the Council to make an informed decision. He questioned exactly what the firefighters’ issues were, recalling Mr. Hoover stated Fire District 1 would provide stability for 20 years and better service. He questioned how Fire District 1 could operate cheaper than the Edmonds Fire Department. He recalled the City considered consolidation in 2000 and did not move forward due to cost. Mukilteo rejected Fire District 1’s offer due to cost. The tax rate charged by Fire District 1 is $2.17/$1,000 AV; Mukilteo charges $1.75/$1,000 AV. Mayor Haakenson invited Mr. Murray to meet with him to discuss his concerns. Roger Hertrich, Edmonds, advised the turtles he complained about last week had been built and painted. He was awaiting their removal after the first accident. He remarked the interaction with Fire District 1 Packet Page 20 of 225 Edmonds City Council Draft Minutes October 20, 2009 Page 18 last week was very mature and interactive. He found Mayor Haakenson’s display last week offensive, alleging Mayor Haakenson grabbed his jacket. Mayor Haakenson disagreed he had touched Mr. Hertrich, pointing out he was on the opposite side of the podium. Mr. Hertrich responded Mayor Haakenson was a liar. Mayor Haakenson read a response from Transportation Engineer Bertrand Hauss regarding the pedestrian refuge island Mr. Hertrich addressed. In 2006 a pedestrian and bicycle safety grant was secured for the Puget Drive Walkway Project. The main purpose of the project was to improve pedestrian safety by adding sidewalks on one side of the street and pedestrian refuge islands in two uncontrolled crosswalks. The pedestrian refuge islands were incorporated into the design and their size and placement was approved by WSDOT in March 2008 since the roadway is a State Route. Pedestrian refuge islands and crosswalks are identified as a pedestrian safety feature in the WSDOT design manual. The benefits of pedestrian refuge islands are, 1) reduces the number of pedestrian-vehicle conflicts by allowing pedestrians to cross one lane at a time and judge conflicts with oncoming vehicles separately, and 2) eliminates the crossing of an open two-lane left turn that may have vehicles entering and turning either direction. The new pedestrian refuge islands do limit the deceleration distance and the storage for left turn vehicles at the Methodist Church parking lot and Hindley Lane. Both left turns have minor left turn demand on a daily basis and left turn queues are minimal due to low traffic volumes and low left turn demand. The location of the refuge islands was selected following a thorough evaluation of existing sight distances and maintaining access to driveways and streets. Mayor Haakenson advised Mr. Hertrich has brought his concerns to staff several times and staff has been unsuccessful in their attempts to reach him to discuss the matter. COUNCILMEMBER WAMBOLT MOVED, SECONDED BY COUNCILMEMBER PETERSON, TO EXTEND THE MEETING UNTIL 10:15 P.M. MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY. (Council President Wilson was not present for the vote.) Mayor Haakenson objected to Mr. Hertrich’s uncivil behavior, calling him a liar. 10. EXECUTIVE SESSION REGARDING THE NEGOTIATION OF THE PURCHASE OF REAL ESTATE. At 10:04 p.m., Mayor Haakenson recessed the Council to an Executive Session regarding negotiation of the purchase of real estate. He anticipated the Council would take action at the conclusion of the Executive Session. The meeting was reconvened at 10:10 p.m. COUNCILMEMBER BERNHEIM MOVED, SECONDED BY COUNCILMEMBER PLUNKETT, THAT THE CITY ACQUIRE THE PARCEL AT 939 MAIN STREET FOR THE PRICE OF $39,000 PAYABLE FROM THE 126 FUND. MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY. (Council President Wilson was not present for the vote.) Mayor Haakenson explained the Council authorized the purchase of two lots in the Shell Creek Basin off Main Street where the Council has acquired property previously with the hope that someday the City can acquire the entire wetland area. 11. MAYOR'S COMMENTS Mayor Haakenson referred to news reports about banks failing and developer foreclosures. He explained last spring when the banking crisis was at its peak, he asked the Finance Director to look at the banks the City was using to ensure the City’s investments were covered by FDIC. At that time the City withdrew most of its money out of one bank and deposited it into another bank. He requested both banks meet with him and the Interim Finance Director regarding how the investments are protected under the new bank industry rules. They met today with Pat Fahey, the Chairman of Frontier Bank, who assured the City’s Packet Page 21 of 225 Edmonds City Council Draft Minutes October 20, 2009 Page 19 investments were protected by a number of guarantees. He also planned to meet with the Chairman of Cascade Bank. He happened to be meeting with Councilmember Wambolt, Chair of the Finance Committee, this morning on another matter and asked him to join the meeting with Mr. Fahey. Councilmember Wambolt advised this meeting was also prompted by the report in the Everett Herald that Frontier Bank was suing a prominent local developer for $40 million. Mr. Fahey assured that would not be a problem for the bank. Mayor Haakenson next reported the Edmonds Post Office property is on the market for $4.15 million. The lease for the post office runs through August 2010. The Post Office plans to find a location downtown to maintain a retail storefront. The vehicles have already been moved to Perrinville. Mayor Haakenson referred to the Council’s reception with the Finance Director candidates prior to tonight’s meeting and invited Council to forward him any comments. He planned to make a decision by Friday and confirmation of his selection would be on the October 27 agenda. Mayor Haakenson announced the Edmonds Shopping Center application for the waterfront parcel was withdrawn today. The article he wrote will be published next week; however, because it was written last week, it would not reflect that the application had been withdrawn. The applicant plans to reapply and start again. 12. COUNCIL COMMENTS Councilmember Peterson referred to the tree removal at 5th & Dayton and the Council authorization to purchase property, reminding the public to see the forest through the trees. Although the City may have lost a couple trees, better trees would be planted for the long term. The parcels that the Council authorized the purchase of will add to the environmental strength of the community, a step to securing that entire stretch of land and a great investment for the future. Councilmember Orvis reminded the Snohomish County Health Board was working with its partners on flu shot clinics on Halloween. He advised the City’s website now had a link to the SnoCoFlu website. Councilmember Bernheim reported he received his flu shot at Bartell’s. He suggested using some of the $97,000 Council contingency that was discovered to fund internet access for the Council and public during meetings. Councilmember Bernheim expressed his sincere appreciation for the process that led to the selection of the three excellent Finance Director finalists. With regard to the trees, he looked forward to having trees on the 5th & Dayton corner that everyone could be proud of. With regard to civility, Councilmember Bernheim explained he was accused via email by the Planning Board Chair of stealing draft Planning Board minutes. He was hopeful such comments would not be repeated. Mayor Haakenson advised Mr. Hines was preparing documentation for the Council with regard to the $97,000 Council Contingency Fund and whether that amount was already included in the budget. Mayor Haakenson commented although he was not a party to the emails Councilmember Bernheim referred to, he urged the Planning Board and the Economic Development Commission to do their jobs and planned to send out an email to that effect. 13.

Community Services I. EDMONDS CROSSING Project Description Edmonds Crossing is a regional project intended to provide a long-term solution to current operational and safety conflicts between ferry, rail, automobile, bus, and pedestrian traffic in downtown Edmonds and along State Route 104. The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), Federal Transit Administration (FTA), Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) (including Washington State Ferries [WSF]), and City of Edmonds propose to relocate the existing state ferry terminal from Main Street, in downtown Edmonds, to Pt. Edwards, south of the downtown core. In the process, a multimodal center would be established that would integrate ferry, rail, and transit services into a single complex. A realigned SR 104 from its current intersection with Pine Street would provide access. The new complex would provide an upgraded ferry terminal designed to meet the operational requirements for accommodating forecast ferry ridership demand; a new rail station designed to meet intercity passenger (Amtrak) and commuter rail (Sounder) service; a transit center that would meet local bus system and regional transit system loading requirements; facilities that allow both vehicular commuters and walk-on passengers to utilize various transportation modes; parking, drop-off areas, retail/ concessionaire space, waiting areas; and a system linking these facilities to allow for the safe movement of users. City of Edmonds  Community Services Packet Page 71 of 225 Significant Activities Since July 23, 2009  July, August, September and October, 2009 – WSF staff continue to explore minimum build alternatives / options for Edmonds ferry improvements.  July, August, September and October, 2009 – See Section VIII, regarding updates on Washington State Department of Transportation Ferries Division Edmonds/Kingston Ferry Route Partnership Meeting – Reservation System Pre-Design Study  October 14, 2009 – I provided an update on Edmonds Crossing to the Edmonds Planning Board. II. SOUND TRANSIT (PHASE 1, AKA SOUND MOVE) Project Description During the past few years, Sound Transit has been implementing what is called the Sound Move Plan. One element calls for commuter rail services, otherwise known as Sounder. Commuter rail will eventually link Everett in the north with Seattle, Tacoma and Lakewood in the South, a total of 82 miles through three counties. Sounder is being implemented in three phases, one of which includes Everett to Seattle. Three commuter rail stations are planned along this corridor, i.e., Everett, Mukilteo and Edmonds. Everett-Seattle Sounder, at full operation, now calls for 8 trains per day, i.e., four round trips, and will include reverse trips. This is a reduction of two round trips from the originally proposed operational plan. Initial service will be phased in. The first roundtrip train run began in December, 2003. Edmonds Station is currently located between Main and Dayton Streets along both sides of the Burlington Northern Santa Fe (BNSF) tracks. The station area is also co-located with Amtrak’s Edmonds Passenger Station. The existing Sounder commuter rail station includes a 400-foot-long platform, ADA mini-high, two ticket vending machines and parking lot with 200 spaces. Sound Transit Edmonds Station may be considered an interim facility until such time Edmonds Crossing construction is completed, or circumstances related to the status of Edmonds Crossing change. The current Edmonds Station project budget is $13.1M. A total of $4.0 million has been spent to date for agency administration, preliminary engineering, temporary improvements, property acquisition, and permits. The remaining budget should be sufficient to develop final design documents, acquire platform leases and construct the station per plans reviewed by the City of Edmonds Architectural Design Board and City Council in 2002. In an attempt to address future needs in the area, a culvert may be installed, if feasible, near the Marina Beach property beneath both BNSF Railroad tracks, concurrent with the construction of a second track. If feasible, this will allow for the eventual daylighting of Willow Creek if funding is available. Significant Activities since July 23, 2009 2 Packet Page 72 of 225  July, August, September and October, 2009 – City staff have been meeting with representatives from BNSF, Sound Transit, Community Transit, Washington State Department of Transportation, and Washington State Ferries to discuss and review plans, and coordinate construction schedules related to Sound Transit Edmonds Commuter Rail Station, BNSF second rail line, and City of Edmonds Lift Stations 7 and 8.  July, August, September and October 2009 – Scott Snyder and I continue to work with Sound Transit staff on a development agreement for Edmonds Station. Review of the final draft agreement by the Edmonds and Sound Transit could take place by November and December, 2009.  October, 2009 – Sound Transit anticipates submitted building and land use permits near the end of October, 2009. III. SOUND TRANSIT 2 Expanding the regional mass transit system Sound Transit 2 will provide regional express bus and commuter rail service while building 36 additional miles of light rail to form a 55-mile regional system. For additional information, visit http://soundtransit.org/ Significant Activities Since July 23, 2009  July, August, September and October, 2009 – No new information at this time. IV. UNOCAL AKA CHEVRON SITE CLEANUP Project Description The UNOCAL property currently consists of a lower yard which currently contains petroleum contamination resulting from more than 60 years of operation. Chevron, which acquired UNOCAL, is now the entity responsible for cleaning up the site. Cleanup work at the lower yard, which began in 2007, is a continuation of remediation work that has been ongoing at the site since 2001. Chevron conducted the following work from summer 2007 through fall 2008:  Excavated soil with metals contamination exceeding Washington State Department of Ecology standards in order to protect against direct contact with the soil (such as ingestion) and impacts to the groundwater.  Excavated soil with petroleum contamination exceeding safe levels for direct contact. Excavation of this soil was for protection of groundwater and surface water.  Excavated contaminated sediment in Willow Creek, on the northern edge of the site. The primary excavation work at the lower yard (including the Willow Creek area) was complete by September 2008. Over 140,000 tons of contaminated soil and 9,000 gallons of petroleum product have been removed from the site. The lower yard site has been re-graded and reseeded. The Willow Creek area has been re-planted with native vegetation. 3 Packet Page 73 of 225 Significant Activities since July 23, 2009  July, August, September and October, 2009 – Monitoring of the site continues. V. EDMONDS PUBLIC FACILITIES DISTRICT Overview The City Council, pursuant to state law, approved the formation of the Public Facilities District (PFD) at its April 24, 2001 meeting. A PFD is a separate municipal corporation that has authority to undertake the design, construction, operation, promotion and financing of a Regional Center in the city. The Public Facilities District board consists of five members originally appointed by the City Council on June 19, 2001. Phase 1A renovation of the original Edmonds High School Auditorium into a first class Edmonds Center for the Arts (ECA) and multipurpose facility was completed in September of 2006. Significant Activities Since July 23, 2009  September 4, 2009 – I prepared and submitted the Line of Credit Control System (LOCCS) Voice Response System (VRS) request voucher to the U.S. Housing of Urban Development. The LOCCS VRS request voucher is the last step to accessing the 2008 federal appropriation (for year 2009) for the Edmonds Center for the Arts. Edmonds Center for the Arts is now able to access and draw down the funds for improvements and repairs. VI. SNOHOMISH COUNTY PAINE FIELD Overview On July 14, 2004, a Mead & Hunt Inc. Business Travel Survey was issued which focused on the market potential and options for Paine Field. On August 20, 2004, a Snohomish County Citizen Cabinet issued an Economic Development Final Report -Blueprint for the Economic Future of Snohomish County. Both reports put Paine Field in the regional spotlight as they highlight the possibility of using Paine Field for commercial aircraft operations, thus changing its general aviation status. Significant Activities Since July 23, 2009  July, August, September and October, 2009 – No new information at this time. VII. RAILROAD QUIET ZONE Overview As discussed on a few occasions, there is an expressed desire of the City Council and Port of Edmonds to establish a full or partial quite zone along the City's shoreline. A quiet zone is a section of rail line that contains one or more consecutive public crossings at which locomotive horns are not routinely sounded. Significant Activities Since July 23, 2009  August 12, 2009 – BNSF notified the City of Edmonds that fencing installed at the Meadowdale Marina has been completed and whistle signs have been taken down. BNSF 4 Packet Page 74 of 225 VIII. WASHINGTON STATE FERRIES Edmonds/Kingston Ferry Route Partnership Meeting – Reservation System Pre- Design Study Overview The Edmonds/Kingston ferry route has been selected by Washington State Ferries (WSF) to study the possibility of establishing a vehicle reservation pilot program. Edmonds/Kingston was selected because it met certain selection criteria, including technical capability, diverse customer/ridership base, customer benefit, and community traffic concerns. The Washington State Legislature asked WSF to conduct a feasibility study for the reservation system and to look at how it might be implemented on the Edmonds/Kingston route, if funded by the State Legislature. This partnership group is part of a larger effort to complete a legislated vehicle reservations pre-design report due to the Legislature before 2010 session. In response to the request, WSF formed a community partnership committee composed of 17 individuals from both sides of the route representing varied interests including business and tourism; counties, cities and ports; commuters and weekend vehicle travelers; Ferry Advisory Committees and regional planning organizations. WSF is consulting with community partners on how to adapt a vehicle reservations system to the specific characteristics of the Edmonds/Kingston route. The community partnership group is meeting at least once each month during the development of the pre-design report. The meetings are open to the public and held in Edmonds and Kingston on an alternating basis. For more information on the pre-design study, materials from the partnership meetings, and upcoming meetings, visit http://www.wsdot.wa.gov/Ferries/Planning/VehicleReservations Significant Activities Since July 23, 2009  August 19, 2009 – The second meeting of the Edmonds/Kingston community partnership took place at the Kingston Community Center. The agenda included business rules, group discussion, brainstorming and exploring concepts, and next steps.  September 9, 2009 – The third meeting of the Edmonds/Kingston community partnership took place in the Brackett Meeting Room at Edmonds City Hall. The agenda included business rules, goals and evaluation criteria, reservation system overarching concepts, and next steps.  September 30, 2009 – The fourth meeting of the Edmonds/Kingston community partnership took place in the Kingston Community Center. The agenda included a review of progress to date, e.g., business rules, information technology back office needs, key factors for success. Additional items discussed included general vehicle processing, terminal constraints, challenges and options, and next steps. 5 Packet Page 75 of 225  October 14, 2009 – The fifth meeting of the Partnership was held in the Brackett Meeting Room at Edmonds City Hall. The agenda included draft emerging program rules, and general customer and priority account holders. Note: Additional meetings will be held on October 28, 2009 in Edmonds (Senior Center), November 12, 2009 in Edmonds (City Hall Brackett Room) and December 2, 2009 in Kingston (Community Center). VIII. CITY OF EDMONDS / COMCAST FRANCHISE AGREEMENT Overview On July 14, 2008, the City of Edmonds received a letter dated October 22, 2008 from Stan Finley, Comcast Director of Franchising and Government Affairs (Exhibit 2) regarding renewal of the existing franchise agreement. While Comcast is asking to reach a mutually satisfactorily agreement through an informal negotiation process pursuant to Section 626 of the 1984 Cable Act, the second paragraph of the Comcast letter also states “to preserve our statutory rights to this formal procedure, this letter is our official notice to you invoking that provision.” With a record of successfully negotiating Verizon franchise agreements, several members of the North Puget Sound Consortium wish to form a new Consortium for the purposes of negotiating franchise agreements with Comcast. Jurisdictions which have been invited to participate include: Snohomish County, the Cities of Bothell, Carnation, Edmonds, Kenmore, Lake Forest Park, Mercer Island, Shoreline, Woodinville, and the Town of Woodway. Benefits of a coordinated effort include: ensuring that the public receives the maximum rights and benefits from their respective franchise agreements; better coordination of negotiations with Comcast; sharing the costs of negotiations including hiring a national consultant and attorneys to assure the citizens of each jurisdiction that their franchise is competitive, both locally and nationally; and creating a common template and negotiation strategy through the assistance of a national consultant and attorneys to maximize leverage during the negotiations. Significant Activities Since July 23, 2009  July, August, September and October, 2009 – The North Puget Sound Consortium representatives continue to work on a draft franchise agreement template. IX. FRONTIER COMMUNICATIONS ACQUISITION OF VERIZON Overview On May 13, 2009, Verizon announced plans to divest its local wireline communications system to Frontier Communications. According to a May 19, 2009 letter to the City of Edmonds from both entities, the transaction includes Verizon’s residential and small business telephone lines, internet service, long-distance voice accounts, as well as Verizon’s fiber-to- the-premises (FTTP) assets; Frontier will continue to provide video services after the completion of the merger. 6 Packet Page 76 of 225 Similar to the process used to negotiate the Verizon and Comcast Interlocal Agreements, participating entities (Consortium) to an Interlocal Agreement have jointly contracted with River Oaks Communications and Ogden Murphy Wallace for common services as well as a mechanism for each entity to utilize the consultant’s services, as that entity sees fit, and for additional support in reviewing or negotiating the transfer to meet specific needs of each participating entity. Significant Activities Since July 23, 2009  July, August, September and October, 2009 – Consortium members, its Consultants, and the City's Attorney continue to review, and have been meeting to discuss, information related to the Frontier purchase of Verizon. The Consortium is collectively getting closer to assessing whether a recommendation from the Consortium can be made to Consortium Member’s Councils. Consortium members have all signed a Stand-Still Agreement with Frontier and Verizon which extends the decision date until November 30th, which means that if Verizon provides the Consortium with adequate information, City and County Councils should meet sometime in November to render a decision on the proposed transfer. Note: Verizon has offered to meet with City and County Councils at study sessions to discuss the transfer. On November 2, 2009, a work session will be held with the Edmonds City Council to update the Council and to give Frontier and Verizon representatives an opportunity to answer any questions raised by the City Council. The City Attorney’s office will also have a representative to help answer questions. Economic Development I. PARTNERSHIPS Goal 1 of the Edmonds Economic Development Plan states: ”foster a healthy business community that provides employment and other economic opportunities.” Significant Activities Since July 23, 2009 Economic Development Commission Overview On June 2, 2009 – The City Council approved Ordinance 3735 which creates a new Citizens Economic Development Commission (EDC) in order to determine new strategies for economic development within the City and identify new sources of revenues. In conjunction with the Planning Board, the new commission is to review and consider strategies designed to improve commercial viability, tourism development, and activity. The ED Commission consists of 17 members appointed by Mayor Gary Haakenson and the City Council. The commission is staffed by the City’s Economic Development Director. The Commission will make recommendations to the Mayor and City Council, as well as to other City boards or commissions as appropriate, regarding economic development strategies. The commission will provide an annual report to the Council in December of every year. The commission is scheduled to end on December 31, 2010.

III. IMPROVING BUSINESS CLIMATE 8 Packet Page 78 of 225 Goal 2, Policy 2e of the Edmonds Economic Development Plan states: “explore options such as Business Improvement Districts/Areas (special assessment districts) as a way to help shopping areas fund marketing and beautification in a sustainable fashion. Significant Activities Since July 23, 2009  July, August, September and October, 2009 – Representatives from the City of Edmonds and Greater Edmonds Chamber of Commerce continued to meet and discuss the possibility of establishing a Downtown Edmonds Business Improvement Area. Goal 2, Policy 2h of the Edmonds Economic Development Plan states: “Work to identify and “brand” distinct business districts, where there is a natural synergy, such as the Highway 99 International District, the Stevens Hospital Medical Corridor, and the 4th Avenue Arts Corridor.” Significant Activities Since July 23, 2009  July, August, September and October 2009 – Highway 99 Enhancement Project - includes adding street lighting fixtures and artwork along the portion of Highway 99 passing through the International District. Light fixtures have been delivered to the City of Edmonds. City staff is in the process of working with a contractor to prepare bid documents necessary to solicit bids, and contract for installation oversight.  July, August, September and October 2009 – Frances Chapin continues to work on wayfinding signage opportunities including kiosks and locator signs. Additionally, public parking signs, utilizing the universal parking symbol, have been installed at various locations within the downtown area to direct visitors to public parking areas. IV. TECHNOLOGY Goal 3, Policy 3b of the Edmonds Economic Development Plan states: “Leverage technology assets, such as existing fiber connections, to pursue new revenue streams.” Significant Activities Since July 23, 2009  July, August, September and October, 2009 – The Economic Development and Community Services staff continue to meet with the City’s Community Technology Advisory Committee regarding existing technology assets, e.g., fiber and communications equipment. V. TOURISM Goal 3, Policy 3g of the Edmonds Economic Development Plan states: “Expand tourism efforts to take advantage of regional trends, such as nature tourism.” Significant Activities Since July 23, 2009  July, August, September and October, 2009 – Cindi Cruz has been working on updating the City’s “Rack Brochure” for distribution in 2010. The brochure, which is tourism related, will be distributed throughout Western Washington, e.g., hotels, Edmonds Log 9 Packet Page 79 of 225  July, August, September and October, 2009 – Over the past several months, City staff have been updating a variety of City website web pages in an attempt to provide more effective and useful information to website visitors. Although the City does not employ a Webmaster, the City does utilize the services of a contractor to assist with website maintenance. As such, the responsibility for updating web pages and formatting rest with existing City staff. Website development is ever evolving and is a product of numerous contributions by individuals throughout the City and increasing the accessibility of information contained within the City’s website is a primary goal of City Administration. City staff continue to update the City’s website. Economic Department staff are also updating Visiting Edmonds webpages to improve information for visitors. This also ties to Goal 3, Policy 3B. Items of Interest  American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) Significant Activities Since July 23, 2009 City’s capital maintenance overlay program In March of this year 2009, the City of Edmonds was successful in securing $1M of federal stimulus money for the City’s capital maintenance overlay program. The overlay project is anticipated to begin in late summer 2009. A total of $14.9M of federal stimulus funding for transportation improvements was distributed to Snohomish County agencies in March. The regional selection criteria were based on project readiness and how quickly the projects could begin construction. This funding will provide a much-needed temporary financial resource for the overlay program. It’s important to note that the stimulus funds will not contribute toward balancing the City’s general fund. Due to lack of revenue, the City currently has no funds budgeted in 2009 and 2010 for the citywide overlay program. o September and October, 2009 – The City of Edmonds is installing new curb ramps and street overlays along portions of Dayton Street, 212th Street and 220th Street using federal stimulus funding. Energy Efficiency and Conservation Block Grant (EECBG) In March of this year, Energy Secretary Steven Chu announced plans to invest $3.2 billion in energy efficiency and conservation projects in U.S. cities, counties, states, territories, and Native American tribes. The Energy Efficiency and Conservation Block Grant (EECBG) program, funded by President Obama’s American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, will provide formula grants for projects that reduce total energy use and fossil fuel emissions, and improve energy efficiency nationwide. The City of Edmonds received notification that it is eligible for a $160,200 block grant under the EECBG program. The City has until June 25, 2009 to submit an application, i.e., "claim" the grant amount, and 18 months to obligate and three years to expend the funds. This 10 Packet Page 80 of 225 is an entitlement grant for cities over 35,000 in population, rather than a competitive grant. City staff conducted several meetings to discuss possible projects or programs that might be eligible for this type of funding and have developed a preliminary list; these projects are considered short term. City staff also participated in a DOE webcast to learn about application submittal procedures and how the funds can be used. In addition to the above, I contacted other entities such as the Port of Edmonds, Puget Sound Energy, Snohomish County PUD, Edmonds School District and Stevens Hospital, to find out whether they might have projects which are small in scale but could be included in our grant application under a partnership proposal. We are not looking to expend the grant money on a single project, and we have already identified more than enough City of Edmonds projects to expend all of the grant money (several times over). I requested representatives from these entities to share whether they have a project that (1) would have benefits for the entire community, (2) could be small enough in terms of cost to fit within an overall multi-project application, and (3) would have measurable, identifiable results. Examples of projects we are considering include energy- efficient equipment retrofits, vehicle replacement, traffic signal timing, energy code training and information programs, and software that can turn off electronic equipment during late night non-working hours. The second reason I contact these entities is to explore opportunities for partnering on projects that may go beyond the funding available in this first round of block grants. US-DOE has indicated that there will be a "competitive round" of grants available, although details have not been established. We believe that grant applications emphasizing partnering on a community or regional level will be what DOE is looking for, especially those that have long-term effects and can serve as "demonstration projects" for others to access. Announcement of the EECBG opportunity was shared with, and a proposed project list was also reviewed by, the Mayor’s Climate Protection Committee. o September 22, 2009 – The City was notified that the Department of Energy has awarded an Energy Efficiency Conservation Block Grant to the City of Edmonds. The award is the full amount referenced in the March 2009 eligibility announcement ($160,200). The funds will be used for the following six different projects. Announcement of the EECBG opportunity was shared with, and the attached proposed project list was also reviewed by, the Mayor’s Climate Protection Committee. Project 1 - PC Energy Management (federal funds) Purchase and install energy management software for City computers (PC's). Enables automatic shut-down and management of upgrades. The cost covered under the grant is for the purchase of the software and licenses to cover computer workstations throughout City government, linked by network at several building sites. Project 2 - Network Server Energy Upgrades – (federal funds) Purchase and install energy-efficient PC network servers, replacing old servers still in use. Estimated project cost should enable four (4) servers to be replaced. 11 Packet Page 81 of 225 Project 3 - Residential & Commercial Energy Meters (federal and local non-federal funds) Purchase energy meters to support residential and commercial energy monitoring, partnering with ongoing programs operated by local utilities. Establish public information plan, coordinated with the utilities, which provides educational resources and web-based support. The meters would be available for loan to private citizens or businesses to help monitor and assess energy needs, encouraging conservation and energy reduction. This program will consist of two components: (1) the purchase of home energy meters for loan to residential households and businesses within the city, and (2) website development to promote the meter program and enable homeowners to log their experiences and energy savings, and to encourage others to participate and ultimately save energy. Two types of meters will be purchased, which can be loaned out as a “set.” One meter will be similar to a simple plug-in meter (e.g. the P3 International Kill A Watt EZ Electricity Usage Monitor) which allows monitoring of appliance energy consumption. The second type of meter (e.g. PowerCost Home Electricity Monitor) is a unit that will interface with the home electric utility meter, allowing monitoring of overall electrical energy used in the home. In tandem, these will allow homeowners to monitor and potentially reduce overall energy usage. The meters will be loaned out free of charge, for a defined time period, with information on usage and savings to be reported as feedback to help assess the benefits of the program. The second part of the program is an enhancement to the City’s website to promote and provide for online reporting and feedback on the effectiveness of the program. Privacy will be afforded users, but reporting will be required of residents choosing to participate in the program so as to provide some measurement of effectiveness. Project 4 - Heating System Design and Feasibility Study (federal funds) A consultant will be hired to perform an analysis and feasibility study to replace the Frances Anderson Cultural Center (a heavily used community center) steam boiler heating system with ground source heat pumps or an alternative energy- efficient heating source. The existing system is old and highly inefficient. However, because of the size and complexity of the building and its systems, the City needs to conduct an assessment and feasibility study to evaluate different energy-efficient alternatives before considering replacement of the existing system. Project 5 - Purchase Hybrid Vehicles – (federal and local non-federal funds) 12 Packet Page 82 of 225 The City would purchase up to seven (7) hybrid vehicles to replace existing low- efficiency City vehicles. EECBG funds can only be used to fund the delta between the cost of a hybrid vehicle (or Alternative Fuel Vehicle – AFV) and the cost of a non-hybrid vehicle (or non-AFV). Existing mid-size cars and trucks/pickups would be replaced with small hybrid cars and hybrid utility vehicles (SUV’s). The average fuel efficiency of the existing vehicles ranges from 8 to 22 MPG while the new hybrid replacements provide between 32 and 50 MPG. When purchasing vehicles, the City uses Washington State contracting procedures and contract listing prices. According to the State of Washington Current Contract Information, there are two types of small sedan AFV vehicles available and one small SUV AFV vehicle available for purchase using this process. Note: It is possible that the City may consider the purchase of an electric police scooter and/or other electric sedan(s) in lieu of one or more of the hybrid vehicles identified above as technology and availability improves. This is dependant on availability and pricing within the required 3-year expenditure window. Project 6 - Low-Energy Lighting Retrofit – (federal funds) Existing exterior lighting of the outdoor work yard at the Public Works facility is provided by traditional, inefficient 150-watt high pressure sodium fixtures. Based on discussions with the electrical utility provider (Snohomish PUD), the City has determined that energy and cost savings are possible if the existing lights are replaced with low-energy lumen-equivalent lights, such as LED fixtures. This project would complement ongoing City efforts to replace existing lighting fixtures with more energy efficient lights. Note: Representative Inslee's office called to congratulate the City on its success in securing the grant. They want to highlight the City of Edmonds in D.C. as an entity that is looking to spend the funds in a variety of ways instead of on one project or purchase, and how the City is working towards long term sustainability.  Burlington Northern Santa Fe – Installation of Second Rail Line As a part of the Sound Transit’s Sound Move, Burlington Northern Santa Fe (BNSF) will be installing a second rail line alongside the existing rail line between the areas north of Downtown Edmonds and south of Marina Beach Park. During a meeting with Sound Transit earlier this year, BNSF presented a plan depicting what BNSF believes to be the final alignment and realignment of the second and existing rail lines respectively. The plan depicts Port of Edmonds and City of Edmonds leased areas in addition to what portions of the leased areas BNSF intends to take back from both entities as a result of the above mentioned activities. Upon reviewing the plan, City staff requested that BNSF survey and stake/mark in the field where the fencing (west side of tracks) is to be located. The City and Port of Edmonds submitted this request in order to begin assessing future impacts, and planning for post installation/realignment of the rail lines. 13 Packet Page 83 of 225 14 As expressed on a number of occasions to BNSF, the City and Port are concerned about potential impacts related to realignment and installation of BNSF rail lines. We are equally concerned about the amount of time the City and Port may have to react to any decision(s) made by BNSF and the potential financial impacts to our budgets. Depending on the magnitude of BNSF construction related impacts, the City and Port of Edmonds may not have the staffing and financial resources to mitigate the impacts. The City has asked BNSF if they have a mitigation fund set aside to mitigate adverse impacts, if any? To date, we have not heard back from BNSF. Based on BNSF engineering plans and field stakes, there could be negative impacts to Admiral Way and Marina Beach Park. The City is in the process of securing an engineering firm in order to fully determine the impact and possibly design a new Admiral Way alignment, if necessary, that will maintain access to Marina Beach Park, Port of Edmonds and existing parking areas. The City is attempting to get out in front of this issue before any work is performed by BNSF.  Community Transit SWIFT Project Significant Activities Since July 23, 2009 o July, August, September and October, 2009 – Work continues on three Edmonds Community Transit SWIFT stations.

Packet Page 97 of 225 Firdale Village Site -- Design Standards -- 2 A.D. Shapiro Architects, PS 22.100.000 Applicability and Goals A. Applicability The design standards in this chapter apply to all development within the Firdale Village MU zone, including the sub-districts contained within the larger zone. The Design Standards use imperative language such as “shall” and “must” to indicate high priority features and a strong directive toward satisfying the ‘Standards’ intent. Words such as “should” and “may” indicate desirable conditions or elements that are strongly encouraged. B . Goals and Intent The Design Standards will help to shape a neighborhood village form of development, a place of complementary uses within an aesthetically attractive, easily accessible and economically healthy environment. The guidelines and standards will be used to create an attractive, inviting environment for residential and commercial uses, with an emphasis on the needs of the pedestrian, including the needs of senior citizens, youths and physically challenged persons, but that is also accessible for vehicles. Development shall be located to facilitate transit and non-motorized travel modes. On-site facilities that are convenient and attractive to pedestrians, bicyclists and vehicles are encouraged. The development will be designed to include the following uses, and will also evolve and change over time: Retail shops and stores, professional offices, restaurants, services, multi- residential and community related outdoor areas and facilities. C. Project Vision 1. Scale and Form -- The vision for Firdale Village is the creation of a vibrant neighborhood village development that demonstrates a balance between commercial, retail and residential uses and contributes to the vitality of the neighborhood and area. The project is intended to create an environment that is accessible and inviting to the pedestrian, visitor, tenant, motorist and public transit user. The project can also be an important example of a more sustainable form of development, one that incorporates sustainable design strategies and methods in many aspects of the project, from site design, construction to long term water and energy efficiency. New development shall include pedestrian amenities that bring residents and customers to the development, including local shopping, services, offices, specialty retail, restaurants, and other related uses. Outdoor spaces shall function as social settings for a variety of experiences, while maintaining a human scale and ability for easy pedestrian circulation. Packet Page 98 of 225 Firdale Village Site -- Design Standards -- 3 A.D. Shapiro Architects, PS 22.100 .010 Site Design and Planning A. Intent 1. The project design shall respond to special opportunities and constraints of the site, including solar orientation, changes in topography, preservation of existing trees as buffer, and opportunities for low impact site design. 2. The project design shall take advantage of the southern solar orientation for multi-family residential orientation and outdoor courtyards as well as designing adequate usable open space and landscaped areas in both private residential and commercial sub-districts. The project should also respond to other local climatic and ecological context by incorporating the site’s natural systems including significant trees, hydrology and geology into design solutions. 3. In general, the designer shall consider the site design as a whole in helping to create an inviting environment for residents, tenants and visitors. In order to clarify possibilities for sustainable design, goals for sustainability and green technologies shall be set in the initial stages of project design. B. Site Features 1. Pedestrian Orientation. The project shall include a pedestrian orientation with public amenities, such as buildings with ground floor orientation to the streetscape and public spaces, pedestrian walkways, street trees, attractive landscaping, outdoor areas with seating and other amenities, and places for gathering. Additional amenities in public spaces such as fountains, sculpture or other forms of art are highly encouraged. (See Pedestrian Orientation section for more description). The use of materials, color, texture, form and massing, proportion, public amenities, landscaping and vegetation along with mitigation of environmental impacts, shall be incorporated in the design of the project with the purpose of supporting a human scale, pedestrian-oriented development. Packet Page 99 of 225 Firdale Village Site -- Design Standards -- 4 A.D. Shapiro Architects, PS 2. Tree Retention -- The project site plan shall retain the existing stand of evergreen trees at the north end of the site, to help serve as a buffer between the new buildings and the residential parcels bordering the project. Illustration depicting existing large trees on the site that act as buffer on north boundary of the site. C. Open Space – Design Intent: The project shall include a comprehensive open space network that uses courtyards and other open space elements to connect the residential and commercial uses. 1. The design and layout of required plazas, courtyards and other public gathering spaces shall contribute to the overall sense of place and help attract pedestrian users to the development. The project shall be designed in such a way to allow some views into the public plazas and open space from Firdale Avenue, to help create an inviting and welcoming ambiance from outside the development. It is important to achieve a balance between creating inviting, usable public spaces and buffering noise and Large storefront windows, overhead metal canopy , lush landscaping and attention to detail help to create a strong pedestrian orientation. Packet Page 100 of 225 Firdale Village Site -- Design Standards -- 5 A.D. Shapiro Architects, PS other traffic issues from Firdale Avenue. A more transparent configuration, that allows views from the street into the development, will also help create an inviting ambiance and make visible the pedestrian friendly character of the development 2. Open Space Requirements: Minimum open space requirement for the development: 20% of total site area. The minimum open space requirement may include all developed pedestrian areas including landscaped walkways, existing setback landscaping, plazas, courtyards and other passive open spaces in the commercial area. The calculation may also include open space for the residential uses. The calculation shall not include parking areas, driveways, or service areas. 3.. Residential Open Space: Residential Development shall include private open space or outdoor areas for residents. These areas shall be configured and designed so as to ensure privacy for residential uses while also providing linkages to the public open space components of the project. Seating areas shall be provided as an important part of the usable open spaces, and coordinated with landscaping, shaded areas, lighting and orientation to focal points. 22.100 .020 Architectural Design A. Design Intent To create a unified design concept for the project that reflects the neighborhood village form of development, while allowing for some individual expression of each building. The massing, layout and individual design of each building shall be compatible with the architectural design of its on site neighboring buildings, yet complement the neighborhood village character. In general, all aspects of the project, from landscaped open spaces to project signage should be well-designed and coordinated with the project as a whole. 1. Scale. The designers shall consider how the structure and site development will be viewed from the street and adjacent properties. Scale is not simply the size of the buildings, it is the proportion of buildings in relationship to each other, to the street and to the pedestrian environment. Because of the bowl-like topography, the larger scale buildings will be toward the side and rear of the site, with lower scale commercial buildings toward Firdale Avenue. 2. Form and Style. The objectives and standards do not set a particular style of architecture or design theme. The style and site design shall be pedestrian in scale and address design features such as distinctive building shapes; incorporation of a number of design elements on building facades, with particular focus on ground floor, integration of art; interesting textures and patterns; treatment of public spaces; landscaping; and signage. Packet Page 101 of 225 Firdale Village Site -- Design Standards -- 6 A.D. Shapiro Architects, PS Building forms shall not present visual mass or bulk impacts that are out of proportion to the adjoining structures, or that appear from the street or sidewalk as having unmodulated visual mass or bulk. Building additions should complement the original structure in design Mixed-use development with variation in scale and height. Variety of retail facades, along with interesting storefronts creates visual interest at the ground level. B. Architectural Character 1. Building Siting and Orientation a. Where feasible, primary commercial buildings shall be oriented to the street frontage to enliven the street edge as well as to maximize access from the public sidewalk. Because not all of the commercial space will be oriented towards Firdale Avenue, primary entrances may also be oriented to side streets or towards a rear courtyard as the site design warrants. b. All visible building frontages and ground floor commercial spaces shall be detailed with architectural elements. (See Building Facades, below). c. Commercial uses are located towards the front of the site, with orientation towards Firdale Avenue. Residential uses are located towards the rear of the site to allow for greater privacy and buffering from street noise and activity. 2. Building Articulation a. In order to prevent long stretches of monotonous facades, buildings over 100 feet in length as measured parallel to a roadway or public open space shall be vertically articulated along the façade at regular intervals. b. Articulation may be accomplished in several ways, including: Modulation – the stepping back of projection of a portion of the façade, including significant building elements such as balconies, porches, canopies, entry areas, etc. that visually break up the façade. Articulation can also be accomplished through adding Packet Page 102 of 225 Firdale Village Site -- Design Standards -- 7 A.D. Shapiro Architects, PS building focal points which include distinctive entry features, changing the roofline and changing materials. Mixed-Use Building with modulation of façade along with emphasis on development of ground floor retail uses. 3. Building Facades a. Objectives. Building facades should be designed with a variety of architectural elements that suggest the buildings’ use and provide visual interest to residents and pedestrians. Special focus shall be given to mass, scale roof forms and landscaping, with special attention to the ground floor of retail and commercial buildings. b. Street-facing and major Façade Elements: All major mixed-use, commercial and/or retail buildings within the development shall include decorative light fixtures, and decorative paving, and at least five (5) of the following elements on the major facades, with at least five (5) elements on the ground floor. (1) Window and doors treatments which embellish the façade. (2) Unique façade treatment, such as decorative materials and design elements. (3) Recessed entrances. (4) Balconies. (5) Railings, grill work, gates (6) Unique landscaping. (7) Belt courses. (8) Decorative tile work. (9) Projecting metal and glass canopy (10) Clearstories over storefront windows.

Retail façade with emphasis on the ground floor and entry. Architectural detail includes large windows in storefront, large glass entry door, recessed entry, arched windows above, contrasting stone outlining entry, structural canopy above entry, large sign integrated into building façade, hanging blade sign to the left, and landscaped planters in front. c. Walls Mixed-use building with large scale storefront windows helps to maximize transparency at ground level. Metal canopy, use of durable materials and lighting adds to visual interest. Packet Page 105 of 225 Firdale Village Site -- Design Standards -- 10 A.D. Shapiro Architects, PS Blank walls without visual or architectural interest shall be avoided. Buildings shall provide massing breaks along wall expanses and walls shall include visual or architectural treatments. Walls facing the sidewalk or other pedestrian spaces should be treated with recesses, landscaping, windows, seating, recessed secondary entrances, balconies, belt courses, cornices, and other means of breaking up the blank wall surface. d. Ground Floor Windows and Doors Major commercial buildings should have at least 75 percent of the length of the ground floor façade between the height of two feet and seven feet devoted to windows and doors affording views into retail, office or lobby space. e. Transparent Facades Major commercial building facades shall have a high degree of transparency into the first floor offices/retail to help create a more inviting ambiance. See section d. above on Ground Floor Windows and Doors. Storefront design with a high degree of transparency from walkway or sidewalk. Packet Page 106 of 225 Firdale Village Site -- Design Standards -- 11 A.D. Shapiro Architects, PS Building with large storefront windows, overhead canopy and large street trees f. Upper Story Facades Upper stories of buildings above two stories should maintain an expression line along the façade such as a setback, change of material, or a projection to reduce the perceived building mass. Upper-story features shall include but are not limited to balconies, roof decks, or bay windows. g. Long Buildings Long buildings, more than 50 feet in length, shall provide relief to perceived building mass through such features as varied setback or heights, or projecting windows, entrances or walls. Long linear walls should be staggered horizontally and vertically to provide interest. h. Entrances Building entrances should concentrate along the sidewalk and should be physically and visually inviting. Entrance doors should be recessed from the façade surface to emphasize the entrance and provide a sheltered transition to the interior of the building. Special paving treatments may be used to enhance the entry. i. Pedestrian walkways Pedestrian walkways should be a minimum of eight (8) feet wide, and be landscaped appropriately. Wheelchair ramps shall be constructed between the sidewalk and building entrances. j Building Facades Oriented towards Residential Areas. Building facades facing north towards the single family residential areas shall be designed to include elements to create an interesting architectural expression as opposed to blank walls. Elements shall include those associated with multi-family residences such as balconies, roof decks, or bay windows, along with modulation of building facades. . Packet Page 107 of 225 Firdale Village Site -- Design Standards -- 12 A.D. Shapiro Architects, PS 4. Materials and Color a. Objectives: The buildings should include textured high quality materials and colors and provide a visually interesting experience. Color shall be carefully considered in relation to the overall project design. Color and materials should highlight architectural elements such as doors, windows, fascias, cornices, lintels, sills and pedestrian amenities. b. Development and Design Standards: Building Exteriors: shall be constructed from high quality and durable materials, that will require minimal maintenance. Color: A harmonious range of colors shall be used on all buildings. Bright colors shall be used only for trim and accents. 22.100.030 Pedestrian Orientation, Outdoor Spaces & Amenities A. Design Intent: The project should incorporate a network of well designed, attractive pedestrian spaces throughout the project. The commercial area will feature various sizes of public spaces, completed with outdoor furnishings and amenities to help create a safe, inviting environment for visitors and residents. B. Pedestrian Connections 1. Attractive well-marked pedestrian links between parking and buildings shall be provided. The connections shall be designed to enhance pedestrian safety through clearly marked walkways across traffic lanes, landscaped areas and parking lots. 2. Where walkways cross driveways and traffic lanes, special features shall be used to increase safety for pedestrians. Potential features include raised or textured pavement to define the pedestrian space, raised curbs, curb extensions or low-level lighting such as bollard lights. 3. Pedestrian connections shall be provided between buildings with special focus on connections between residential and commercial areas. 4. Pedestrian connections shall include design cues to help demarcate the transition between public and private spaces. Design cues may include a change in materials, colors, landscaping or the dimensions of the space. 5.

Covered bus stops and waiting areas shall be included to provide pedestrians with outdoor areas sheltered from extreme weather conditions. 22.100.90 Sustainable Design A. Incentive. In exchange for allowing four-story buildings for the multi-residential portion of the project, the development would be required to meet the requirements for at least a 4-star rating of the Built Green of Washington program, or the LEED Gold Standard, with integration of sustainable design methods and technologies throughout the project. If the project does not include four-story buildings in the multi-family sub- district, then the project must meet the requirement for at least a 3-star rating of the Built Green of Washington program. Particular focus will be given to low-impact site design strategies, water efficiency and energy efficiency methodologies. B. Design Goals for Project Incorporate goals for integration of sustainability at earliest stages of design process possible. Decide on projected levels of achievement for Packet Page 122 of 225 Firdale Village Site -- Design Standards -- 27 A.D. Shapiro Architects, PS the project – For example: The project will achieve at least a 4-star level of the Built Green of Washington program 1. Site Design and Water Use The proposed development will integrate low impact development techniques where reasonably feasible. For the purposes of this section, low impact development techniques shall include, but shall not be limited to, the following: the use of bio swales, green roofs, and grasscrete. "Reasonably feasible" shall be determined based upon the physical characteristics of the property and its suitability for the technique; cost alone shall not render the use of low impact techniques unreasonable or unfeasible. Additional techniques for strong consideration: Rainwater harvesting – for use in site irrigation and possibly toilet flushing for commercial uses. Utilization of water efficient fixtures throughout the project. 2. Energy Resources Increase efficiency by maximizing equipment efficiency and using control strategies. Design to reduce energy and electricity consumption and eliminate unnecessary demand. Include use of alternative energy resources wherever possible. 3. Material Resources Plan for long term use by designing for adaptability, specifying durable materials and considering energy and maintenance needs. elect resource efficient and recycled materials where possible, that minimize environmental impact. Utilize wood from sustainable sources. Encourage recycling of waste with easy access recycling stations and pick-up areas. Manage construction demolition and waste with a jobsite recycling plan. Packet Page 123 of 225 Firdale Village Site -- Design Standards -- 28 A.D. Shapiro Architects, PS 4. Health and Indoor Air Quality Utilize multiple strategies to limit emissions from materials Select low VOC and non-toxic materials, paints and finishes. Pay special attention to residential units in selection of finishes and paints for low or no toxicity. Sustainable stormwater mitigation and site drainage system Definitions This section will provide clarification of some of the specific terminology used within the guidelines. Courtyard: A landscaped spaced enclosed on at least three sides by a structure(s). Curb Cut: A depression in the curb for the purpose of accommodating a driveway that provides vehicular access between private property and the street (or ADA/bike crossing at street corners). Façade: Any vertical exterior wall of a building. Possible use of green roofs and other innovative technologies. Packet Page 124 of 225 Firdale Village Site -- Design Standards -- 29 A.D. Shapiro Architects, PS Frontage: Refers to the length of property along a public street or right-of-way. Landscaping: An area is considered to be landscaped if it is: Planted with vegetation in the form of hardy trees, shrubs, or Grass or evergreen groundcover maintained in good condition; or occupied by sculpture, fountains, pools, benches, or other Outdoor furnishings; or Occupied by recreational facilities; or Paved with decorative pavers, brick combined with any of the above items. Modulation: As used in the Design Guidelines, modulation is a stepping back, or projecting forward of portions of a building face within specified intervals of building width and depth, as a means of breaking up the apparent bulk of a structure’s continuous exterior walls. Pedestrian-Oriented Façade: A building façade is considered “pedestrian-oriented” if it features any of the following characteristics: A transparent window along at least 75 percent of the ground floor between the height of two feet and eight feet above the ground. Frontage along a pedestrian-oriented space. Pedestrian-Oriented Space: An area between a building and a public space that promotes visual and pedestrian access to the site and provides pedestrian oriented amenities and landscaping to enhance the public’s use of the space for passive activities such as sitting, reading, picnicking, etc. A “pedestrian-oriented” space must have: Visual and pedestrian access into the site from the public right of way; Paved walking surfaces of either concrete or approved unit paving; On-site or building-mounted lighting; Seating comprised of at two feet of seating area (bench, ledge, etc.), or one individual seat per 60 SF of plaza area or open space. A “pedestrian-oriented” space is encouraged to have: Site furniture, amenities such as fountains, kiosk, artwork, and landscaping that does not act as a visual barrier. Human Scale: The perceived size of a building relative to a human being. A building is considered to have “good human scale” if there is an expression of human activity or use that indicates the building’s size. For example, traditionally sized doors, windows, and balconies are elements that respond to the size of the human body, and therefore are elements in a building that indicate a building’s overall size. Packet Page 125 of 225 Firdale Village Site -- Design Standards -- 30 A.D. Shapiro Architects, PS Vertical Articulation: Visual division of a building’s façade into distinct sections or elements to reduce the apparent horizontal length of the façade.

MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY. Mayor Haakenson declared a brief recess. 7. CONTINUED PUBLIC HEARING ON THE PLANNING BOARD RECOMMENDATION TO APPROVE THE CREATION OF A NEW MIXED USE ZONING CLASSIFICATION FOR FIRDALE VILLAGE TO IMPLEMENT THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN. (FILE NO. AMD-2008- 10 / APPLICANT: SHAPIRO ARCHITECTS) Planning Manager Rob Chave explained this was a proposal by the applicants that would result in adding a new zoning classification to the City’s Code with accompanying design standards. The Council held a public hearing previously on this item; the applicant made modifications to the proposal in response to Council and public comment at that public hearing. If the Council agrees to add this code language, the applicant would then need to submit an application to apply it to the property which could be done via a development agreement that would identify the specific measures they would apply to the property to implement the Zoning Code. City Attorney Scott Snyder explained in order to achieve the proposed buffer, a development agreement or other form of assured dedication would be appropriate to satisfy the criteria. If the Council feels the tree buffer should be preserved, it cannot be imposed by ordinance but would need to be required via a development agreement. Councilmember Plunkett clarified this was a legislative matter. Mr. Snyder agreed. Tony Shapiro, Shapiro Architects, advised his client and he participated in at least four meetings with Councilmember Wambolt, Council President Wilson, and Planning Manager Rob Chave to address the Council’s concerns. He reviewed modifications made to the zoning criteria:  The 25% criteria dedicated to commercial and retail space in the zoning criteria was clarified.  Multi family dwellings are prohibited in District 1 so no housing will be in the zone facing Firdale Avenue  A limit of 2,500 square feet for retail spaces throughout the complex was discussed. In discussion with Mr. Chave and property management experience, it would be challenging to implement that limit. He suggested market conditions be allowed to drive small retailers in this zone.  A clause was added to allow only retail and restaurants on the ground floor to enhance the neighborhood feel of the complex and commercial space such as professional offices would be on the upper floors.  Mr. Snyder provided several clarifications to the language throughout the document.  The design standards were reviewed in detail and many “should” became “shall.” He commented the proposed design standards struck a balance between establishing minimum criteria as well as providing sufficient flexibility to achieve a good product. Council President Wilson thanked Mr. Shapiro for working with them over the past two months. He assured the design standards were reviewed in detail and of the 67 “should” statements in the design standards, 56 were changed to “shall.” There were also incentives added for green buildings, not just experiential elements but also stormwater management. He summarized the design standards had several innovative elements. Packet Page 127 of 225 Edmonds City Council Approved Minutes October 6, 2009 Page 13 Councilmember Orvis inquired about the lot coverage requirements for the zone. Mr. Shapiro answered there was no specific lot coverage requirement. They must achieve a 20% open space criteria that cannot include parking lots or traffic/service areas. Councilmember Peterson commented the standards provided some incentives for achieving a LEED gold certification. He asked whether a LEED gold certification changed the other standards such as the parking requirements. Mr. Shapiro answered one of the key components of LEED was site orientation such as toward solar or territorial winds. It does not address parking. To achieve four stories and the desired density, a project would need to achieve a LEED gold certification or other green criteria. Mr. Snyder agreed, noting the only incentive is the four stories shown on page 5. Councilmember Peterson expressed his support for incorporating progressive design into the standards. As an example, Mr. Shapiro commented green roofs were very expensive, but up to 75% of the water could be retained in a green roof, allowing smaller detention tanks and reducing the load on the City’s stormwater facilities. Councilmember Peterson wanted to ensure the code language made it easy to achieve these goals. Mr. Shapiro commented the LEED rating was achieved via meeting criteria on a checklist. Mr. Snyder responded the technical details would be addressed via the determination of impervious surface via the City’s stormwater standards. Council President Wilson expressed concern the language was not clear enough that there was a three story limit in District 2 with the exception of when LEED gold standard was achieved. When a LEED gold standard was achieved, a four story building could be attained. He recommended including language in zoning criteria section 16.100.040.B.1.b.1 and B.1.b.2 regarding a three story height limit if the LEED gold standard was not achieved. Mr. Snyder offered to make the appropriate revision. Mayor Haakenson opened the public participation portion of the public hearing. Lora Petso, Edmonds, expressed her appreciation for including the 25% commercial requirement and asked if it would result in more or less commercial space at the site. She requested staff review the parking requirements, commenting it appeared this project may require only 1 parking space per 400 square feet of commercial. In downtown Edmonds, the parking ratios are 1 space per 300 square feet of commercial, in an area where there is also on-street parking versus Firdale Village where there is no on- street parking. Roger Hertrich, Edmonds, commented he had good feelings about the changes that had been proposed and the neighborhood also supports the proposed changes. Observing mixed use would result in additional residents, he inquired whether there was a requirement for additional park facilities. He suggested rather than establishing a percentage for retail, requiring no less retail space than currently exists. He expressed concern with imposing rules on development such as green roofs, pointing out such requirements increase the cost to the developer. He pointed out there was no developer for Firdale Village; this was only a change in zoning. Hearing no further comment, Mayor Haakenson closed the public participation portion of the public hearing. For Council President Wilson, Mr. Snyder advised the proposed change was within the range of alternatives that had been considered and would not require that the public hearing be continued. He advised this would be put in ordinance form and scheduled on a future Consent Agenda. COUNCIL PRESIDENT WILSON MOVED, SECONDED BY COUNCILMEMBER WAMBOLT, TO DIRECT STAFF TO PREPARE AN ORDINANCE FOR COUNCIL ADOPTION. Packet Page 128 of 225 Edmonds City Council Approved Minutes October 6, 2009 Page 14 Councilmember Orvis advised he would not support this action due to his concern with the conversion of a Neighborhood Business Zone, specifically allowing a 52-foot tall building within 20 feet of a residential boundary. He understood the economic development opportunity but questioned the need to allow over three stories. He preferred to require the LEED standards. He was willing to go slightly above 30 feet for multi family but not as high as 52 feet. Council President Wilson commented there was a great deal of support for redevelopment of Firdale Village. The question was the vision for the site and how to integrate it into the community. If development occurs based on this zoning, it would be one of the more innovative developments in the area. He advised the development would be three stories unless the developer used innovative design and development techniques to develop a project everyone could be proud of. This was an opportunity to make good on promises for redevelopment and interest in providing smart, innovative development, managing stormwater, and fostering transit oriented development. Councilmember Wambolt acknowledged Councilmember Orvis’ concern with the 52-foot tall building adjacent to residential property, pointing out the property owners have offered to retain the existing stand of trees via a development agreement to mitigate the building height. MOTION CARRIED (5-1), COUNCILMEMBER ORVIS OPPOSED. 8. PUBLIC HEARING ON THE PLANNING BOARD'S RECOMMENDATION TO ADOPT AN ORDINANCE ADDING A NEW SECTION TO EDMONDS COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT CODE 17.40 TO ESTABLISH A QUALIFIED BUILDING SETBACK EXEMPTION FOR RESIDENTIAL PROJECTS WITH EXPIRED COUNTY BUILDING PERMITS (FILE NO. AMD20090011). Planner Jennifer Machuga explained following annexation from Snohomish County into the City, the County did not transfer all records of pending building permit applications for approval as required by the Annexation Agreement. As a result, there is at least one project that received approval by the County based on the setbacks in effect prior to annexation. The permit expired prior to final approval. Per the Annexation Agreement all vesting is lost and the applicant must obtain permits based on current City code. In this example, the project does not comply with current City setback requirements. The proposed ordinance strives to remedy this situation by allowing a building setback exemption for projects that had County approval for property annexed since 1994. The Planning Board recommends approval of the proposed ordinance. Mayor Haakenson opened the public participation portion of the public hearing. There were no members of the public present who wished to address the Council. Mayor Haakenson closed the public testimony portion of the public hearing. COUNCILMEMBER WAMBOLT MOVED, SECONDED BY COUNCILMEMBER ORVIS, TO APPROVE THE ORDINANCE RECOMMENDED BY THE PLANNING BOARD (ORDINANCE NO. 3756). MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY. 9.
