I am asking the questions below on behalf of all 11,000+ taxpayers who voted against Prop1. 1) How much did this unauthorized lawsuit and appeal cost the City? 2) How is it possible that the Appeal action was taken without Council approval? 3) How are you going to ensure this doesn’t happen again? 4) It seems to many that the issue should never have happened and the money spent was totally wasted because the lawsuit was based on the City’s pre-emption of basic citizen land rights and could have been solved by common sense revision of tree ordinance – without having a lawsuit in the flrst place. I hope the Council has subsequently revised the City tree code so this never happens again, but I would like to know why the Council didn’t make an ordinance change before allowing the lawsuit to proceed , and didn’t reject the appeal. Has the Council changed the ordinance, or does it intend to make a change? 5) When are you going to reduce the $1 million+ per year legal fees for Mr. Taraday and his Lighthouse law flrm, and when are you going to put City legal support out for bid – as you have been asked to do for at least 5 years? Please respond publicly on the City website in writing, so all taxpayers understand how much money was wasted in this legal action. _______________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________ 1/8/2026 email from Ken Reidy to Mayor and Council: The Washington State Court of Appeals, Division 1, heard 87644- 9 - Nathan Rimmer, Respondent v. City of Edmonds, Appellant yesterday, January 7, 2026. Did the City of Edmonds ever inform Division I of the State of Washington Court of Appeals that the Edmonds City Council never voted during an Open Public Meeting to authorize an appeal? Who Authorizes an Appeal in Edmonds? Only the Edmonds City Council can authorize an appeal. • The City Attorney cannot independently flle an appeal and acts only under direction from the Council, Council President, or Mayor. • Appeals are policy decisions involving legal and flnancial obligations, and policy authority rests with the Council. • The Mayor may recommend an appeal but   Item 7.1       Packet pg. 4/358 Edmonds City Council Public Comments – January 27, 2026 Meeting cannot authorize one. Conclusion: An appeal of a Superior Court decision requires formal authorization by the City Council. The City Council authorizes actions by voting during an Open Public Meeting. by the City Council. This is well known, as evidenced by the 2019 Council's vote to appeal a different Superior Court Decision during the November 12, 2019 Council Meeting.

And why is the City Attorney assuming that he can make policy decisions when this is the role of the Council? It appears that he has stepped out of his lane. I would very much appreciate a reply to my question. In addition, I again bring up the fact that the City Council has not asked that the City Attorney’s contract be sent out for a competitive bidding since 2014. As part of your role and obligation to the people of Edmonds, you have a flduciary responsibility to your constituents to make sure their tax dollars are spent wisely. As with any other contract with City may have, I believe they all should periodically be reviewed and send out for competitive bidding regularly. What do I mean by “regularly”? Perhaps every two to three years - but certainly not 10 or 11 years. To not review a contract for 10 or more years is negligent in my opinion and not respecting taxpayer dollars. I know from personal conversations that CM Olson is very pro and supportive of our City Attorney. Three years ago I asked her about sending the contract out to bid and she was against it. I hope that CM Olson and other CMs will consider this request as part of their flduciary responsibility. And you are all well aware that each time we lose a court case, our insurance carrier pays out to the   Item 7.1       Packet pg. 5/358 Edmonds City Council Public Comments – January 27, 2026 Meeting Defendant, resulting in higher insurance premiums which ultimately is passed down to the taxpayer. At your convenience, will you please tell me how much the City paid in attorney fees to Lighthouse in 2024 and 2025? This information would be appreciated. Thank you. Wishing you all good health and a more gentle year in 2026.

That’s why I’m uneasy about Edmonds pursuing a sales tax increase that could leave us with the highest rate in Washington. A higher sales tax doesn’t hit “the city” — it hits households already dealing with rising utilities, insurance, and property taxes, and it squeezes small businesses competing with online shopping and nearby cities with lower rates. Before asking residents to pay more, the City should show exactly how current dollars are being spent, prove what we’ve gotten from past increases, and flnd real efficiencies with clear accountability.

We at or near the top in cost-of-living among the 50 states - our high gas prices being only the tip of that iceberg. Our streets are in disrepair and our schools are failing. So, do we really need to increase Edmonds' sales tax, making it the highest within the state? For those who are awake, Edmonds voters delivered a resounding mandate against continued tax increases from their city government in the recent November General Election when they rejected a proposed ballot measure to raise city property taxes by $1,000 per household. (This is one of the few measures whose results pleased me in recent years.) The message to city leaders is clear: reduce spending to make up for the city’s self-infiicted budget shortfall rather than continuing to pass the buck onto taxpayers. If you do go against the will of the voters, I personally take consolation in the fact that my business in downtown Edmonds is minimal and will soon become less-so since I am actively pursuing abandoning this town and state for friendly places. Incidentally, for the record, I have lived in Edmonds 44+ years.

I was surprised to hear that the Edmonds City Council is considering raising the sales tax - especially after Edmonds residents made their feelings on more of their hard-earned dollars going to taxes by voting no on the property tax increase that was on November's ballot. Please listen to what Edmonds residents are trying to tell you! Edmonds residents deserve far better than the "tax and spend" mentality that seems to be the go-to. What they actually deserve is a clear idea of where the money has been going. I'd suggest a city- wide audit, with the results publicly available. Really, your budget is their money - they deserve to know. I believe a reasonable sales tax is good for the Downtown Edmonds merchants. Increasing it makes Edmonds pricier than surrounding areas. This can hurt business, and ultimately perhaps even drive- down city-wide revenue. Personally, I try to shop and dine with Edmonds as my flrst choice of destinations. I'm sure I'm not the only one...increasing sales tax could result in people shopping and dining elsewhere. Instead of an increase, why not repeal other portions of the sales tax and use those revenues to fund improvements to local roads that actually need it. The "improvement" of 100th/9th just north of the Edmonds QFC certainly doesn't fall into this category. Honestly, this reminds me of when one of my sons asked for an increase in his allowance. I asked him where all his money had gone, and it was to pure junk. My answer to him was no. The advice I gave him was have a budget, spend responsibly, don't waste your money without really asking yourself if this is the right thing to use your allowance on. My advice to the Edmonds City Council is the same.

At its core, this request satisfles the fundamental standard the Council must apply when considering street vacations: whether the subject right-of- way continues to provide a meaningful and necessary public beneflt in its current form. This segment of 84th Avenue W does not function as a critical vehicular or pedestrian connection and does not meaningfully contribute to the broader transportation network. Approval of this vacation does not represent a loss of public interest, but rather a more precise alignment of public assets with actual public needs. The proposal appropriately preserves required utility easements for both public and private utility providers, ensuring   Item 7.1       Packet pg. 19/358 Edmonds City Council Public Comments – January 27, 2026 Meeting continuity of essential services while allowing a redundant right-of-way to be more effectively integrated into surrounding uses. There is also a practical flscal and operational consideration. Retaining underutilized right-of-way imposes ongoing administrative, maintenance, and potential liability costs on the City, often without delivering proportional public beneflt. Strategic street vacations such as this, reduce redundancy, support more efficient site planning, and can contribute to the City’s long-term tax base without expanding public infrastructure obligations. Overall, this proposal refiects disciplined land-use governance. It protects public and private utility functions, avoids unnecessary risk, and aligns City assets with present-day conditions rather than historical assumptions. For these reasons, I encourage the Council to approve the requested street vacation.

Regular Meeting TITLE:Approval of Amendment to ILA Agreement between WSDOT and the City of Edmonds for Highway 99 Stage 3 Project DEPARTMENT:Engineering PRESENTER:Mike De Lilla/Bertrand Hauss NEEDED FROM COUNCIL:Action RECOMMENDATION:Approve Amendment. BUDGET: Total Dollar Amount:136,450 ☒ Approved in Budget Fund(s):WSDOT ☐ Budget Reallocation Required ☐ No Budget Impact PROBLEM/ISSUE STATEMENT: An amendment to the existing ILA Agreement is needed to identify funding source(s) for the additional Complete Streets Elements added to the project. CONTEXT, ANALYSIS, & ALTERNATIVES: The goal of the Highway 99 Revitalization project is to extend the successful transformation of Highway 99 in Shoreline through Edmonds from 244th St. SW to 210th St. SW. Due to the high cost of completing the proposed improvements along the corridor, the 2.25 mile stretch was divided into 7 segments. The scope of the Stage 3 segment, from 244th St SW to 238th St SW, includes capacity improvements at 238th St. SW with the addition of a second left turn lane for the northbound movement. The project work includes the design and construction of new bike lanes, sidewalks, street and pedestrian lighting on both sides of the street, a road overlay, hardscaping/landscaping, and the completion of various utility improvements, including conversion of overhead utility lines to underground. The overlay of this segment of Highway 99 is a WSDOT responsibility and was identified in their nearterm overlay schedule. In 2022, the Washington State Legislature added a Complete Streets requirement in RCW 47.04.035. This directs WSDOT so that, "in order to improve the safety, mobility and accessibility of state highways, it is the intent of the Legislature that the department must incorporate the principles of complete streets with facilities that provide street access with all users in mind, including pedestrians, bicyclists and public transportation users," and, "integrate the state route into the local network," for, "state transportation projects starting design on or after July 1, 2022 and that are $500,000 or more.” WSDOT and the City of Edmonds initially completed an Interlocal Agreement (ILA) for the design and right-of-way costs related to the overlay and Complete Streets elements not included in initial project scope of work, paid by WSDOT. As part of the original ILA, WSDOT funds covered the overlay of Hwy 99 from 244th St SW to 238th St SW, overlay of the SR-104 ramps, bike lane addition on both sides of the segment, grading of driveways due to bike lane addition, and regarding of 238th and 240th on the east side of Hwy 99 due to bike lane addition / steep grade.   Item 8.8       Packet pg. 82/358 Amendment #1 accounts for additional Complete Streets work within the design phase, with the extension of bike lanes through the intersection at cross streets on both sides of the street (238th St SW and 240th St SW) by reducing travel lane width. Bike signal phasing is also being added at the Hwy 99 @ 238th St SW signalized intersection. RECOMMENDATION: Approve Amendment. BUDGET IMPACTS: The recently approved Supplemental Agreement #3 to the SCJ contract had a cost of $242,157. $136,450 of that amount is being funded by WSDOT funding contributions (increasing WSDOT contribution from $1,292,899 to $1,429,349 for the Design / ROW phases). The remaining $105,707 is funded by Connecting Washington and Move Ahead funds.

These improvements were to be consistent with the Conceptual Plans developed during the Stage 1 planning effort and the Stage 2 construction. The intent was to continue the transformation of Highway 99 through Edmonds, building on the upgrades completed in Shoreline. The project scope included new sidewalks, upgraded street lighting, improved stormwater management, targeted utility replacements, a dual-left turn pocket for northbound traffic at 238th Street SW, potential undergrounding of overhead distribution utilities, and landscaping and streetscape treatments reflecting the unique character of Edmonds. Since then, the project has evolved. WSDOT introduced a Complete Streets element, and the City of Edmonds advanced additional improvements. Amendment 1 added work related to Complete Streets, including preparation of a memo documenting cost allocation to WSDOT. Amendment 2 incorporated further requirements of the Complete Streets mandate, such as wider, accessible side-street crossings that required regrading. More recently, WSDOT directed that bike lanes extend through the intersections at 238th Street SW and 240th Street SW, rather than ending at pedestrian curb ramps as originally designed. To accommodate this, turning and through lanes will be narrowed, resulting in a three-foot curb shift on the east side of the 238th Street SW intersection. This change requires WSDOT approvals and preparation of a new design analysis (Design Analysis 5).   Item 8.8       Packet pg. 89/358 Highway 99 Stage 3: Scope of Work- Amendment 3 November 5, 2025 Page 2 of 7 1201 Third Ave, Suite 550  Seattle, WA 98101  Office 206.739.5454  Fax 360.352.1509  scjalliance.com Also, this amendment addresses elements added to the scope of work from the original contract. These include Design Analyses 2, 3, and 4 Finally, this amendment extends project management services from December 31, 2025 to July 31, 2027. The original agreement tied project management to that date or to the advertisement date, whichever came first. As the design schedule has extended beyond initial assumptions, additional budget is needed to continue project management through the remainder of the design phase with the expected advertisement date of July 1, 2027.

BUDGET: Total Dollar Amount:0 ☐ Approved in Budget Fund(s):n/a ☐ Budget Reallocation Required ☒ No Budget Impact PROBLEM/ISSUE STATEMENT: The results of a recently completed speed study along Caspers St from Sunset Ave to 3rd Ave N stretch indicate that the 85th percentile speed is lower than the speed limit (reason for speed limit modification). CONTEXT, ANALYSIS, & ALTERNATIVES: The speed limit along Caspers St from Sunset Ave to 3rd Ave N is currently 25 miles per hour (mph). A recent speed study identified that the 85th percentile speeds (85% of vehicles going below this speed) is approximately 21 mph.

Based on these results and considering consistency with the speed limit along Sunset Ave. of 20 mph, staff proposes that the SPEED LIMIT along this stretch be reduced from 25 mph to 20 mph.  The work to complete this change consists of changing only one (1) existing speed limit sign facing westbound movement.

BUDGET: Total Dollar Amount:N/A ☒ Approved in Budget Fund(s):N/A ☐ Budget Reallocation Required ☐ No Budget Impact PROBLEM/ISSUE STATEMENT: We are requesting that this Interlocal Agreement (ILA) be approved on consent agenda so EPD can book individuals arrested for misdemeanor or gross misdemeanor offenses into the Lynnwood Jail. CONTEXT, ANALYSIS, & ALTERNATIVES: This proposed ILA has been reviewed and approved for presentation by Sharon Cates. Contracting with the City of Lynnwood for jail services would provide the Edmonds Police Department with a closer, more efficient, and operationally consistent way to manage most misdemeanor-related detainees. Lynnwood’s jail facility is modern, professionally staffed, and located only 2.5 miles and about 8 minutes from 212th and Hwy 99 in Edmonds, reducing transport time and fuel costs, minimizing officer downtime, and improving overall patrol availability to the Edmonds community. The Snohomish County Jail is 15.9 miles away and takes about 22 minutes to reach. A partnership with Lynnwood existed for several years before the jail's closure during the construction of their new facility. This ILA is fiscally responsible, supports regional collaboration, strengthens intercity cooperation, and ensures that Edmonds officers can focus on core policing duties while relying on a well-run neighboring facility for detention. Overall, contracting with Lynnwood is a practical, strategically sound option for maintaining high-quality jail services while maximizing Edmonds’ operational efficiency and fiscal responsibility. Felony offenders and misdemeanor offenders with medical or mental health concerns may still be required to be booked into the Snohomish County Jail. RECOMMENDATION: Staff are requesting that the council approve this contract on consent agenda so the mayor can sign this contract. BUDGET IMPACTS:   Item 8.11       Packet pg. 119/358 There is no general fund impact as this cost was included in our 2026 budget. Our bills with Snohomish County Jail will decrease to accommodate the charges we see from Lynnwood Jail. We anticipate overall cost savings due to the comparative fee schedule, proximity, and time spent, among other factors. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: 2026 Fees breakdown Lynnwood Jail: · Booking Fee: $103.00 · Housing: $203.94 · Video Court $100 per appearance. Snohomish County Jail · Booking Fee: $151.61 · Housing: $210.99 · Video Court $251.12 per hour From 212/Hwy 99 Lynnwood Jail Round Trip: 5 miles, 16 minutes SCJ Round Trip: 31.8 miles, 44 minutes Edmonds PD is only directly responsible for the number of bookings into either facility. We do not determine the length of stay beyond booking. EPD has worked to actively reduce the number of bookings throughout the city’s ongoing financial opportunities. This includes directives to supervisors and officers to exercise greater discretion in when to book. Judge Weiss was consulted extensively throughout this process and formally communicated his expectations for service. The court's collaboration is greatly appreciated. In a November communication to the Mayor, Council, and Chief Dawkins, he summarized the Lynnwood Jail option this way: “Assuming all other variables remain the same, Lynnwood Jail would likely cost more because its method for charging video court appearances will result in higher expenses than Snohomish County Jail. However, if Lynnwood Jail’s operations ultimately prove more efficient than Snohomish County’s - through fewer “refusals” for court appearances, court five days per week instead of three, better distribution of paperwork, more individualized assistance in release planning, and reduced transportation costs - there could be some savings overall.” ATTACHMENTS: Lynnwood Jail Interlocal Agreement   Item 8.11       Packet pg. 120/358 Page 1 of 17 INTERLOCAL AGREEMENT FOR JAIL SERVICES BETWEEN THE CITY OF LYNNWOOD and CITY OF EDMONDS This INTERLOCAL AGREEMENT IS FOR JAIL SERVICES BETWEEN THE CITY OF LYNNWOOD and the CITY OF EDMONDS.

As a result, if multiple jurisdictions have an open charge on an individual inmate, the jurisdictions will each share equally the fees and costs as long as an open charge persists for that jurisdiction. When a contracting jurisdiction's charge is closed, that jurisdiction drops from the proportional billing process, and the proportional billing is recalculated without that jurisdiction. Each day the City shall examine the open charges for each active booking and apply uniform rules for determining billable charges and identifying the billable jurisdiction. The procedure employed by the City for determining the billable charges and responsible jurisdictions is outlined below and references the City's billing system. The procedure continues in sequence through the outlined series of steps only so far as needed to isolate a billable charge and determine the jurisdiction responsible for payment. If there is one confirmed misdemeanor charge from one jurisdiction, invoice 100% of cost to the CITY OF EDMONDS. If there is more than one confirmed misdemeanor charges from more than one jurisdiction, invoice each jurisdiction in equal shares. If a jurisdiction has multiple confirmed open misdemeanor charges, the jurisdiction is only invoiced as one element of the proportional billing process. Example: If City A has one confirmed open misdemeanor and City B has two confirmed open misdemeanor charges, all at the same time, each city is billed for fifty percent (50%) of the Fees and Costs for that inmate. Drop jurisdictions with closed charges. Example: The City of X has one open misdemeanor charge, and the City of Y has one open misdemeanor charge. If City Y 's charge is closed, City X is billed for one hundred percent (100%) of the Fees and Costs for that inmate from then on.   Item 8.11       Packet pg. 152/358 City Council Agenda Item 8.12 January 27, 2026 - Regular Meeting TITLE:2026 First Responder Flex Fund Agreement DEPARTMENT:Police Services PRESENTER:Chief Loi Dawkins NEEDED FROM COUNCIL:Action RECOMMENDATION:Staff is requesting that the council approve this grant on the consent agenda, so the Mayor can sign it.

Per SAMHSA, the three (3) key elements of a trauma-informed approach include: realizing the prevalence of trauma; recognizing how trauma affects all individuals involved with the program, organization, or system, including its own workforce; and responding by putting this knowledge into practice. TTT. Trauma-Informed Care: TIC is a strengths-based service delivery approach “that is grounded in understanding of and responsiveness to the impact of trauma, that emphasizes physical, psychological, and emotional safety for both providers and survivors, and that creates opportunities for survivors to rebuild a sense of control and empowerment.” TIC also involves vigilance in anticipating and avoiding institutional processes and individual practices that are likely to retraumatize individuals who already have histories of trauma, and it upholds the importance of consumer participation in the development, delivery, and evaluation of services.

BUDGET: Total Dollar Amount:$280,000 ☒ Approved in Budget Fund(s):Sewer Utility Fund ☐ Budget Reallocation Required ☐ No Budget Impact PROBLEM/ISSUE STATEMENT: Section 10.7.2.A of the City of Edmonds Purchasing Policy states “If the project is not included in the current City Council approved budget or CIP, the City Council must authorize the call for bids estimated at over $150,000.” The 2025-2026 Sewer Utility Budget includes funding to address Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) emergent needs, but the Decision Package for the Wastewater Treatment Plant CIP did not specify this project. It is important to reduce the odor emitting from the plant by enclosing the trucks that are used to haul solids from the WWTP and installing an air scrubber that reduces the odor leaving the enclosure. CONTEXT, ANALYSIS, & ALTERNATIVES: For three years the Edmonds WWTP has been trucking wastewater solids for disposal. Originally this method of solids disposal was going to be temporary until a new solids handling system was operational inside the plant. The permanent solids handling system is still not operational. In addition, over the last three years it has become evident that at some level solids will need to be trucked from the site with the new solids system. Industrial systems require maintenance and inherently will have mechanical problems that would take the system down, having the redundancy/option to truck solids will be essential going forward. Staff have reviewed various options for reducing the odor of trucking solids. Efforts have been made with industrial air freshening products and techniques. The most dependable and cost effective solution is to install an enclosure around the trucks with a roll up door to swap the trucks out when full. The structure needs to be outfitted with an air scrubber that sucks the air out of the enclosure and through an air scrubber that greatly reduces odor. The City of Lynnwood recently started trucking wastewater solids and came the same conclusion. Lynnwood‘s truck enclosure has been successful at reducing odor from the solids. This project was not specified in the Decision Package for the Wastewater CIP/CFP. As such the Purchasing Policy requires City Council to approve staff to call for bids. Staff would also like to confirm   Item 8.13       Packet pg. 175/358 with City Council that we can use the Small Works Roster procurement process for this project, as it is estimated to be under $350,000. Once bids are received and a vendor selected, the City Council will need to approve the expense as it will exceed the Mayor’s signing authority. RECOMMENDATION: Move to approve staff to call for bids for the truck enclosure and air scrubber. BUDGET IMPACTS: The cost of the enclosure and air scrubber is estimated around $280,000 purchased, installed and operational. The 2025-2026 Capital Improvement Plan includes funding for the Wastewater Treatment Plant ($1,000,000) that can be used for this purpose.

BUDGET: Total Dollar Amount:0 ☐ Approved in Budget Fund(s):n/a ☐ Budget Reallocation Required ☒ No Budget Impact PROBLEM/ISSUE STATEMENT: n/a CONTEXT, ANALYSIS, & ALTERNATIVES: The City received a Street Vacation application (PLN2024-0086) to vacate a portion of 84th Ave W adjacent to 24024 and 24110 84th Ave W. In accordance with RCW 35.79.010 and ECDC Chapter 18.55 a street vacation process can be initiated by the petition of the owners of more than two-thirds of property abutting the portion of the street or alley to be vacated. The City of Edmonds has received a petition from all the property owners abutting that portion of 84th Ave W proposed for vacation. The subject street vacation was presented to Council Committee on July 1, 2025, introduced to the full council on August 12, 2025, and brought to Council on December 16, 2025 for a resolution to set the public hearing. RECOMMENDATION: Due to the complexities of this street vacation, additional time is needed to gather current information, determination of suitable sequencing between the two phases, and complete onsite noticing. Therefore, the staff’s recommendation is to proceed as follows: 1) hear a short presentation from staff; 2) open the public hearing; 3) take testimony from anyone would like to speak to the matter; 4) continue the hearing to March 10, 2026, when additional information will be presented and additional testimony will be taken.   Item 9.1       Packet pg. 177/358 BUDGET IMPACTS: none ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: ATTACHMENTS: Attachment – Staff Report Attachment 1 – Vicinity Map Attachment 2 – Application and Petition Attachment 3 – Appraisal Attachment 4 – Official Street Map Attachment 5 – Vacation Area and Hammerhead Attachment 6 – Vacation Area Phases Attachment 7 – Original Quit Claim Deed Attachment 8 – Legal Description and Map Attachment 9 – Phase I Legal Description and Lot Closure – State Attachment 10 – Phase II Legal Description – City Attachment 11 – Resolution 1580 Attachment 12 – Public Hearing Notice Attachment 13 – South County Fire Memo of Compliance Attachment 14 – Presentation   Item 9.1       Packet pg. 178/358 CITY OF EDMONDS 121 5th Avenue North, Edmonds WA 98020 Phone: 425.771.0220 • Fax: 425.771.0221 • Web: www.edmondswa.gov PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT • ENGINEERING DIVISION PLN2024-0086 – Leiser Street Vacation Page 1 of 8 REPORT & RECOMMENDATION TO THE CITY COUNCIL Project: Consideration of vacating a portion of 84th Ave. W right-of-way adjacent to the properties addressed 24024 and 24110-24118 84th Ave. W. Requested Permits: PLN2024-0086 Date of Report: January 22, 2026 Staff Contacts: Mike De Lilla, City Engineer Jennifer Lambert, Acting Engineering Program Manager Public Hearing: January 27, 2026 Council Chambers 250 - 5th Avenue North, Edmonds I. SUMMARY OF PROPOSAL AND PROCESS An application and petition have been filed by Shaun Leiser to vacate that portion of 84th Ave. W right-of-way (ROW) directly east of the properties addressed 24024 and 24110-24118 84th Ave. W. (Attachments 1-3 and 8-10). This stretch of right-of-way ranges between approximately 74 feet and 90 feet in width and approximately 312 feet in length, with a total area of approximately 23,684 square feet (Attachments 8-10). In accordance with Section 18.55.070 of the Edmonds Community Development Code (ECDC), the City Council passed Resolution No. 1580 which set the public hearing for the proposed vacation for January 27, 2026 (Attachment 11). Following is staff’s evaluation of the street vacation criteria in accordance with the requirements for a staff report in ECDC 18.55.080. II. PUBLIC NOTICE Public Notice requirements for street vacations are detailed in ECDC 18.55.090. A notice for the council’s consideration of vacation was published in the Herald Newspaper on January 6, 2026. A notice was mailed to property owners within 400 feet of the site. In accordance with ECDC 18.55.090, the public notice stated that a public storm easement   Item 9.1       Packet pg. 179/358 PLN2024-0086 – Leiser Street Vacation Page 2 of 8 will be retained during the vacation process and other utility easements are under consideration for utilities not owned and operated by the City of Edmonds (Attachment 12). A notice has not yet been posted at the subject site, but will be posted the following business day after the opening of the hearing on January 27, 2026 and a minimum of 20 days before the continued hearing, which is recommended to be held on March 10, 2026. Once the onsite posting has occurred, the City will have complied with the noticing provisions of ECDC 18.55.090. III. PUBLIC COMMENTS As of the date of this staff report, the City has received no written public comments regarding the proposed street vacation. IV. ANALYSIS OF THE REQUESTED VACATION In processing the proposed street vacation, the City became aware of Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) reversion rights to a portion of the right-of-way. The original quit claim deed (Attachment 7) states that should the property no longer be used for public road purposes or related purposes then the title shall immediately revert to the grantor (WSDOT). Because of the reversionary interest to WSDOT, the applicant must pursue the street vacation through both the city and the state. The City has conferred with WSDOT and the Attorney General’s Office about the possibility of sharing the compensation that would result in the event that the portion of the street with the reversionary language were to be vacated. WSDOT has declined to do so. Concurrently, the applicant, Mr. Leiser, has engaged in a process with WSDOT to purchase surplus WSDOT right-of-way surrounding the street vacation area. Should Council choose to approve the subject street vacation, resulting in a portion of the right-of-way reverting to WSDOT, the State would likely combine this reversionary area with its abutting surplus parcels and sell the combined parcel at the same time. WSDOT staff have indicated to city staff that the sale of the surplus property would be offered to the two abutting property owners, Mr. Leiser and CamNel Properties, owner of the nearby property that is used by the Campbell car dealership. If an agreement is not reached between the two parties, we understand the WSDOT surplus property would be auctioned to the public. Considering the uncertainties associated with ultimate ownership of that portion of right- of-way that will revert to WSDOT, staff is considering a phased vacation process as depicted in Attachment 6. Refer to Attachment 9 for a legal description and map of the street vacation area included within Phase I and Attachment 10 for a legal description and map of the street vacation area included within Phase II. The first phase would address vacation of that portion of right-of-way that would revert to the State (Attachment 9). That phase is essentially a prerequisite to the state being able to sell the combined parcel. The   Item 9.1       Packet pg. 180/358 PLN2024-0086 – Leiser Street Vacation Page 3 of 8 second phase would address vacation of the remainder of the 84th Ave W right-of-way (Attachment 10). This second phase could be deferred until the state has sold its surplus property. The City is currently reviewing all options for processing the phased vacations separately or concurrently. For example, it would be possible for the City to vacate all of its right-of-way at the same time. It may be the case that the state’s surplus land sale will have no impact upon the underlying fee ownership of the right-of-way that had been contemplated for vacation in Phase II. Additional information about the underlying title would be needed to know for certain. Furthermore, the City will need to reserve easements for the public stormwater system. Water and sewer are owned and operated by Olympic View and Water Sewer District. PSE has a gas main in the right-of-way. Easements would likely need to be provided as required by the respective utility owners. A turnaround will need to be constructed adjacent to the north end of the vacation that meets City of Edmonds Engineering standards and Fire Requirements (Attachments 5 and 13). The turnaround will not require additional right-of-way/easements. The completion of the new turnaround would be a condition precedent to the adoption of any street vacation ordinance, regardless of whether and how the vacation is phased. V. TECHNICAL COMMITTEE This application was reviewed and evaluated by South County Fire and City of Edmonds Public Works Operations & Maintenance and Engineering Divisions and Planning Division. South County Fire: South County Fire District is requesting a turnaround that meets Fire and Engineering standards (Attachment 13). Refer to Attachment 5 for a map of the vacation area with hammerhead. City of Edmonds Engineering and Maintenance & Operations Divisions of Public Works: There is an existing City stormwater main located within the subject right-of-way. An easement will need to be reserved. VII. ECDC 18.55 – STREET VACATIONS A. ECDC 18.55.015 Initiation of Proceedings and application Pursuant to ECDC 18.55.015.C, a vacation may be initiated by petition of the vested title owners of more than two-thirds of the real property abutting the portion of the street to be vacated. The portion of right-of-way proposed for vacation directly abuts the properties addressed 24024 and 24110 84th Ave W, along with WSDOT’s surplus right-of-way to the east. A petition for vacation (Attachment 2) was submitted with signatures from the abutting property owner (shown by a red dot on the map below):   Item 9.1       Packet pg. 181/358 PLN2024-0086 – Leiser Street Vacation Page 4 of 8 Shaun Leiser who owns the properties addressed 24110-24118 84th Ave W (1 lot – lot line adjustment PLN2023-0049), and 24024 84th Ave W. With signatures from the owners of more than two-thirds of the property abutting the portion of the right-of-way to be vacated, the initiation of vacation proceedings is compliant with ECDC 18.55.015. The properties adjacent to the western side of the proposed street vacation area are privately owned by the applicant. The rest of the property surrounding 84th Avenue West is surplus right-of-way owned by the State of Washington. The initial application to the City of Edmonds to vacate 84th Ave. W was received on October 23, 2024. Additional materials and information were required and so the application was not determined to be complete until July 2025. Due to the complexity of the portion of the larger project in relation to the State right-of-way, the application could not move forward until December 2025. B. ECDC 18.55.020 Criteria for Vacation The City Council may vacate the public’s right in a subject property only if it finds that the following criteria have been met.   Item 9.1       Packet pg. 182/358 PLN2024-0086 – Leiser Street Vacation Page 5 of 8 1. The vacation and any conditions imposed pursuant to a resolution of intent to vacate, collectively, are in the public interest; and 2. The vacation of the subject property will not adversely affect transportation circulation, access, emergency services, utility facilities, or other similar right-of- way purposes; and 3. The subject property is not a necessary part of a long-range circulation plan or pedestrian/bicycle plan; and 4. The vacation will not result in irregular right-of-way alignment hindering future use of the right-of-way. The above findings need to be made before the city adopts a resolution of intent to vacate. The Transportation Element of the 2024 Comprehensive Plan does not identify any future circulation, pedestrian or bicycle projects in the area of 84th Ave. W south of 240th Street. This portion of 84th Ave. W has long been a dead end and would have no ability to create a through street going south due to the adjacent State highway ROW (see Attachment 1). As noted previously, water and sewer in the area are provided by Olympic View Water and Sewer District while a stormwater main owned by the City of Edmonds runs down 84th Ave. W and connects to storm line in the SR-104 ROW. With appropriate easements being conditioned for the utilities in the right-of-way and with another condition requiring the construction of a new turnaround, staff is confident that the street vacation can meet criteria 2 through 4. The first criteria, whether the vacation is in the public interest, is much more subjective and relies upon the city council’s legislative discretion. Think of this as: “What public value do we lose by giving up right-of-way, and what public value do we gain (or protect) by vacating it?” In exercising its legislative discretion, the city council can consider various factors, including, but not limited to, the following: • Whether the appraisal has been prepared in a manner that assures the city will receive a fair market value for the property being vacated; • Whether the public would be helped or harmed in any way by the street vacation; • Whether the public is being helped or harmed in any way by the property remaining in right-of-way use; and • Whether the property is likely to be put to productive use, if vacated, and the degree of that likelihood on the spectrum between certain and speculative. C. ECDC 18.55.040 Limitations on Vacations 1. Pursuant to ECDC 18.55.040A, “The city may not vacate any subject property that abuts a body of water unless all elements of RCW 35.79.035 are satisfied.”   Item 9.1       Packet pg. 183/358 PLN2024-0086 – Leiser Street Vacation Page 6 of 8 The proposed vacation area does not abut any bodies of water. 2. Pursuant to ECDC 18.55.040B, “The city shall not proceed with a city council initiated vacation if the owners of 50 percent or more of the lineal footage of property abutting the subject property file a written objection to the engineering division no later than noon on the date of hearing.” As of the writing of this staff report, the City has not received any written objections from owners of property abutting the subject right-of-way. D. ECDC 18.55.140 Resolution of Intent and Final Decision A resolution of intent with conditions will be provided to council for review prior to a decision on the street vacation being requested. 1. ECDC 18.55.140.A provides the following: Following the public hearing, the city council may, by motion approved by a majority of the entire membership in a roll call vote, adopt a resolution of intent to vacate. If there are insufficient votes to adopt a resolution of intent, the street vacation will be deemed denied. Staff is not requesting a vote at this time and will return to council at a later date with a proposed resolution of intent to vacate unless the council directs otherwise. 2. ECDC 18.55.140.B provides the following: The city council may adopt a resolution of intent to vacate stating the city council intends, by ordinance, to vacate the subject property if the applicant meets specified conditions within 90 days, unless a different time period is specified within the resolution. The city may require the following as conditions of the resolution of intent to vacate: a. Conditions: i. Reservation and/or conveyance of an easement as outlined in ECDC 18.55.120; ii. Acceptance of a grant of substitute public right-of-way; iii. Covenants intended to protect critical areas or otherwise limit future development on the subject property; and/or iv. Other nonmonetary conditions that would, in the city council’s discretion, be in the public interest. b. Monetary compensation. The city council shall condition approval of a street vacation upon satisfaction of the following monetary conditions:   Item 9.1       Packet pg. 184/358 PLN2024-0086 – Leiser Street Vacation Page 7 of 8 i. Payment of any outstanding appraisal fees as outlined in ECDC 18.55.130; and ii. Payment to the city, prior to the effective date of the ordinance, in an amount of up to one-half the fair market value for the subject property unless the subject property was acquired at “public expense” or has been part of a dedicated public right-of-way for 25 years or more, in which case full fair market value shall be paid. 3. ECDC 18.55.140.C provides the following: If the abutting property owner(s) complies with conditions imposed in the resolution of intent to vacate within the timeframe specified within the resolution, the city council shall adopt an ordinance granting the vacation; provided, that the city council shall not be required to adopt the vacation ordinance if it finds, after reviewing the appraisal, that the monetary compensation to be paid to the city is not sufficient to compensate for the public’s loss of the subject property. The effective date clause of the ordinance shall be drafted to make the ordinance effective upon recording, and only if the ordinance contains proof of payment received, with the city receipt number indicated on the ordinance. IX. CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATION Due to the complexities of this street vacation, additional time is needed to gather current information (for example up-to-date appraisal), determination of suitable sequencing between the two phases, and complete onsite noticing. Therefore, the staff’s recommendation is to continue this hearing to March 10, 2026. Staff intends to include a proposed resolution of intent to vacate in the packet for the continued hearing. X.

Edmonds, Washington 98026 RE: Appraisal of: Leiser Street Vacation 84th Avenue W. Edmonds, Snohomish County, Washington CBRE File No.: CB24US082614-2A Dear Mr. Leiser: At your request and authorization, CBRE, Inc. has prepared an appraisal of the market value of the referenced property. Our analysis is presented in the following Appraisal Report. The subject property consists of portions of right-of-way totaling 23,684 square feet, according to the survey provided by the client. The to-be-vacated area consists of portions of 84th Avenue W. The subject abuts WSDOT-owned right-of-way to the east and south (which the client is proposing to also vacate as a separate action with WSDOT), and at the west, the subject abuts APNs 004633-017-001-00, 004633- 024-001-02, and 004633-024-002-03. Upon vacation, the subject property would be assembled with abutting property, and would be split-zoned, per our discussions with city of Edmonds planning personnel: the area to the east of the centerline of 84th Avenue W. would be zoned CG (General Commercial), estimated to be 11,684 square feet; the area to the west of the centerline of 84th Avenue W. would be zoned R-2.4 (Multiple Residential), estimated to be 12,000 square feet. As we understand it, upon vacation, several easements will be reserved for existing utilities within the right-of-way, heavily encumbering the subject property. Based on the analysis contained in the following report, the market value of the subject is concluded as follows: SUMMARY OF VALUE CONCLUSIONS CG-Zoned Portion $146,050 RM-2.4-Zoned Portion $105,000 Total (Rounded)$250,000 Compiled by CBRE ATTACHMENT 3   Item 9.1       Packet pg. 194/358 The report, in its entirety, including all assumptions and limiting conditions, is an integral part of, and inseparable from, this letter.

Beginning in September of 2024, the Fed began lowering the federal funds rate by 50 basis points, with two more cuts expected in 2024. While this may help bolster future commercial real estate investment activity, the risk of near-term market volatility remains. Experience has shown that consumer and investor behavior can quickly change during periods of such heightened volatility. Lending or investment decisions should reflect this heightened level of volatility and the potential for deteriorating market conditions. It is important to note that the conclusions set out in this report are valid as of the valuation date only. Where appropriate, we recommend that the valuation is closely monitored, as we continue to track how markets respond to evolving events. ATTACHMENT 3   Item 9.1       Packet pg. 200/358 An extraordinary assumption is defined as “an assignment-specific assumption as of the effective date regarding uncertain information used in an analysis which, if found to be false, could alter the appraiser’s opinions or conclusions.” 1 • The appraisers have not been provided with a title report for the subject, and we are unaware of existing easements. Per communication various utility providers and the client, this report assumes that 15-foot-wide easements will be reserved for existing water and sewer facilities located within the subject property and a 10-foot-wide easement will be retained for the existing natural gas line. The easements are assumed to include surface and subsurface rights, precluding building within the easement, allowing primarily right-of-way use, circulation, surface parking, and landscaping. This description of property rights is an assumed condition of our conclusions. • The use of this extraordinary assumption may have affected the assignment results. A hypothetical condition is defined as “a condition, directly related to a specific assignment, which is contrary to what is known by the appraiser to exist on the effective date of the assignment results but is used for the purposes of analysis.” 2 • None noted 1 The Appraisal Foundation, USPAP, 2024 Edition (Effective January 1, 2024) 2 The Appraisal Foundation, USPAP, 2024 Edition (Effective January 1, 2024) ATTACHMENT 3   Item 9.1       Packet pg. 201/358 The subject property consists of portions of right-of-way totaling 23,684 square feet, according to the survey provided by the client. The to-be-vacated area consists of portions of 84th Avenue W. The subject abuts WSDOT-owned right-of-way to the east and south (which the client is proposing to also vacate as a separate action with WSDOT), and at the west, the subject abuts APNs 004633-017-001-00, 004633- 024-001-02, and 004633-024-002-03. Upon vacation, the subject property would be assembled with abutting property, and would be split-zoned, per our discussions with city of Edmonds planning personnel: the area to the east of the centerline of 84th Avenue W. would be zoned CG (General Commercial), estimated to be 11,684 square feet; the area to the west of the centerline of 84th Avenue W. would be zoned R-2.4 (Multiple Residential), estimated to be 12,000 square feet. As we understand it, upon vacation, several easements will be reserved for existing utilities within the right-of-way, heavily encumbering the subject property. The subject property is an improved street right-of-way, and the right- of-way improvements are not considered in this analysis. The larger parcel is that portion of a property that has unity of ownership, contiguity, and unity of use, the three conditions that establish the larger parcel for the consideration of severance damages. This is also known as the “parent parcel.” The subject consists of a contiguous portion of right-of-way, owned by the city of Edmonds. The subject property, as described, is considered the larger parcel. The subject is a public right-of-way, owned by the city of Edmonds. We are unaware of any market transactions involving the subject. Though we have not been provided with a title report, Snohomish County aerial imagery shows the subject as right-of-way dating back to the 1990s. WSDOT has also provided right-of-way mapping indicating that the subject has been right-of-way dating back to the 1970s. The subject is not known to be listed or under contract for sale or option. The appraisers have had several conversations with city of Edmonds public works and planning personnel, who were well aware of the proposed right-of-way vacation. Tim Lovell of CBRE inspected the subject on October 5, 2024, and Murray Brackett of CBRE previously inspected the subject, both effectively unaccompanied, though it is noted that Mr. Leiser was onsite during Tim Lovell’s inspection. ATTACHMENT 3   Item 9.1       Packet pg. 202/358 Appraisal reports may be presented in an Appraisal Report or Restricted Appraisal Report option, per USPAP Standard Rule 2-2. This is an Appraisal Report. The scope of the assignment relates to the extent and manner in which research is conducted, data is gathered, and analysis is applied. The client is SCL Enterprises LLC. This appraisal is to be used by the client, SCL Enterprises LLC and the city of Edmonds. No other user may rely on our report unless as specifically indicated in the report. Intended users are those who an appraiser intends will use the appraisal or review report. In other words, appraisers acknowledge at the outset of the assignment that they are developing their expert opinions for the use of the intended users they identify. Although the client provides information about the parties who may be intended users, ultimately it is the appraiser who decides who they are. This is an important point to be clear about: The client does not tell the appraiser who the intended users will be. Rather, the client tells the appraiser who the client needs the report to be speaking to, and given that information, the appraiser identifies the intended user or users. It is important to identify intended users because an appraiser’s primary responsibility regarding the use of the report’s opinions and conclusions is to those users. Intended users are those parties to whom an appraiser is responsible for communicating the findings in a clear and understandable manner. They are the audience. 3 Reliance on any reports produced by CBRE under this Agreement is extended solely to parties and entities expressly acknowledged in a signed writing by CBRE as Intended Users of the respective reports, provided that any conditions to such acknowledgement required by CBRE or hereunder have been satisfied. Parties or entities other than Intended Users who obtain a copy of the report or any portion thereof (including Client if it is not named as an Intended User), whether as a result of its direct dissemination or by any other means, may not rely upon any opinions or conclusions contained in the report or such portions thereof, and CBRE will not be responsible for any unpermitted use of the report, its conclusions or contents or have any liability in connection therewith. This appraisal is to be used for real property acquisition for the proposed vacation of a portion of the 84th Avenue W. right-of-way, based on the rights being acquired, and no other use is permitted. The appraisal of the same property for a different use may result in a value divergent from the appraisal conclusions in 3 Appraisal Institute, The Appraisal of Real Estate, 15th ed.

ATTACHMENT 3   Item 9.1       Packet pg. 203/358 this report due to differences such as the rights or interests appraised and matters of law such as project influence. The report is not the appraisal but is the reporting of the appraisal to the named client or named intended user. Anyone else who attempts to rely on an appraisal report that is not a named user may be misled by the report. If you are not the client, you have no way of knowing if a later appraisal was done that replaces this report. Any changes will result in a different report date. Accordingly, this document may no longer contain the appraisers’ opinions. Any subsequent reports, with a later report date, voids this document even to the client or intended user. The purpose of this appraisal is to establish fair market value of the proposed street vacations through the application of ATF methodology. The purpose of this appraisal is to develop an opinion of the fair market value of the subject property. “Fair market value means the amount in cash that a well-informed buyer, willing but not obligated to buy the property, would pay, and that a well-informed seller, willing but not obligated to sell it, would accept, taking into consideration all uses to which the property is adapted or may be reasonably adaptable.” (Washington Pattern Instruction 150.08). The value conclusions apply to the value of the subject property under the market conditions presumed on the effective date of value. The value estimated represents the Fee Simple Estate as defined below, subject to existing and retained easements: Fee Simple Estate - Absolute ownership unencumbered by any other interest or estate, subject only to the limitations imposed by the governmental powers of taxation, eminent domain, police power and escheat. 4 Leased Fee Interest - The ownership interest held by the lessor, which includes the right to receive the contract rent specified in the lease plus the reversionary right when the lease expires. 5 Leasehold Estate - The right held by the lessee to use and occupy real estate for a stated term and under the conditions specified in the lease. 6 Going Concern – An established and operating business having an indefinite future life. 7 4 Appraisal Institute, The Dictionary of Real Estate Appraisal, 7th ed.

Murray Brackett previously inspected the subject. These inspections are considered adequate and are the basis for our findings. CBRE reviewed the following: • applicable tax data • zoning requirements • flood zone status • demographics • comparable data • Snohomish County and City of Edmonds GIS mapping CBRE, Inc. analyzed the data gathered through the use of appropriate and accepted appraisal methodology to arrive at a probable value indication via each applicable approach to value. For vacant land, the sales comparison approach has been employed for this assignment. The appraisers have the appropriate knowledge, education, and experience to complete this assignment competently.

Depending on a specific appraisal assignment, any of the following four methods may be used to determine the market value of the fee simple interest of land: • Sales Comparison Approach; • Income Capitalization Procedures; • Allocation; and • Extraction. The following summaries of each method are paraphrased from The Appraisal of Real Estate, Fifteenth Edition8. The first is the sales comparison approach. This is a process of analyzing sales of similar, recently sold parcels in order to derive an indication of the most probable sales price (or value) of the property being appraised. The reliability of this approach is dependent upon (a) the availability of comparable sales data, (b) the verification of the sales data regarding size, price, terms of sale, etc., (c) the degree of comparability or extent of adjustment necessary for differences between the subject and the comparables, and (d) the absence of nontypical conditions affecting the sales price. This is the primary and most reliable method used to value land (if adequate data exists). The income capitalization procedures include three methods: land residual technique, ground rent capitalization, and Subdivision Development Analysis. A discussion of each of these three techniques is presented in the following paragraphs. The land residual method may be used to estimate land value when sales data on similar parcels of vacant land are lacking. This technique is based on the principle of balance and the related concept of contribution, which are concerned with equilibrium among the agents of production--i.e. labor, capital, coordination, and land. The land residual technique can be used to estimate land value when: 1) building value is known or can be accurately estimated, 2) stabilized, annual net operating income to the property is known or estimable, and 3) both 8 Appraisal Institute, The Appraisal of Real Estate, 15th ed. (Chicago: Appraisal Institute, 2020), Chapter 19 ATTACHMENT 3   Item 9.1       Packet pg. 206/358 building and land capitalization rates can be extracted from the market. Building value can be estimated for new or proposed buildings that represent the highest and best use of the property and have not yet incurred physical deterioration or functional obsolescence. The subdivision development method is used to value land when subdivision and development represent the highest and best use of the appraised parcel. In this method, an appraiser determines the number and size of lots that can be created from the appraised land physically, legally, and economically. The value of the underlying land is then estimated through a discounted cash flow analysis with revenues based on the achievable sale price of the finished product and expenses based on all costs required to complete and sell the finished product. The ground rent capitalization procedure is predicated upon the assumption that ground rents can be capitalized at an appropriate rate to indicate the market value of a site. Ground rent is paid for the right to use and occupy the land according to the terms of the ground lease; it corresponds to the value of the landowner's interest in the land. Market-derived capitalization rates are used to convert ground rent into market value. This procedure is useful when an analysis of comparable sales of leased land indicates a range of rents and reasonable support for capitalization rates can be obtained. The allocation method is typically used when sales are so rare that the value cannot be estimated by direct comparison. This method is based on the principle of balance and the related concept of contribution, which affirm that there is a normal or typical ratio of land value to property value for specific categories of real estate in specific locations. This ratio is generally more reliable when the subject property includes relatively new improvements. The allocation method does not produce conclusive value indications, but it can be used to establish land value when the number of vacant land sales is inadequate. The extraction method is a variant of the allocation method in which land value is extracted from the sale price of an improved property by deducting the contribution of the improvements, which is estimated from their depreciated costs. The remaining value represents the value of the land. Value indications derived in this way are generally unpersuasive because the assessment ratios may be unreliable and the extraction method does not reflect market considerations. For the purposes of this analysis, we have utilized the sales comparison approach to land value. The other methodologies are used primarily when comparable land sales data is non-existent. Therefore, these approaches have not been used. The Real Estate community has long recognized the ATF methodology for valuing corridors and street vacations. The methodology evaluates the abutting properties, essentially as a proxy for the subject, since direct comparables are not available (streets are not typically sold on the open market). The concept of ATF attempts to recognize the value of a corridor property that was ostensibly assembled from abutting properties to create an economic unit that benefits from a unique size, shape and the element of connectivity between two points. The premium for such assemblage is often the subject of debate (as it may be tied to business value); however, the underlying premise that the abutting lands are suitable as the valuation foundation is generally acknowledged by appraisers.

The to-be-vacated area consists of portions of 84th Avenue W. The subject abuts WSDOT-owned right-of-way to the east and south (which the client is proposing to also vacate as a separate action with WSDOT), and at the west, the subject abuts APNs 004633-017-001-00, 004633- 024-001-02, and 004633-024-002-03. Upon vacation, the subject property would be assembled with abutting property, and would be split-zoned, per our discussions with city of Edmonds planning personnel: the area to the east of the centerline of 84th Avenue W. would be zoned CG (General Commercial), estimated to be 11,684 square feet; the area to the west of the centerline of 84th Avenue W. would be zoned R-2.4 (Multiple Residential), estimated to be 12,000 square feet. As we understand it, upon vacation, several easements will be reserved for existing utilities within the right-of-way, heavily encumbering the subject property. We are not experts in determining flood zone elevations and we were not provided with a flood zone certificate for the subject. The reader is encouraged to consult with a professional engineer to determine ATTACHMENT 3   Item 9.1       Packet pg. 213/358 the subject's actual flood zone status. Based on our review of FEMA Flood Panel No. 53061C1305F, the property appears to be in Zone X (Unshaded), which is an area of minimal flood hazard. No title report for the proposed vacation area was provided; therefore, we are unaware of any easements or encroachments. Per city of Edmonds GIS mapping and discussions with the client, we are aware of various utilities within the rights-of-way and have assumed retained easements as follows: RETAINED EASEMENTS Utility/Item General Location 1 Assumed Retained Esmt. Width (Ft.) 2 Water Main Eastern portion in north, crossing to the west in south 15 Sewer Main Western portion 15 Natural Gas Line Eastern portion 10 1 Water and sewer location per Edmonds GIS mapping, gas line estimated per image of utility locate sketch Compiled by CBRE 2 Easement width for storm drain per Edmonds Public Works personnel; easement width for sewer per Olympic View Water & Sewer District personnel; easement width for gas line per client conversation with PSE Our estimate of the natural gas line is based on a sketch provided by the client via an onsite utility locate. We note that the gas line location per this sketch appears to differ from on-the-ground signage. We have utilized our approximation of the provided sketch in our analysis. Based on our conversations with the various utility companies and experience with such utility easements, it is the appraisers’ understanding that no structures would be permitted within the retained easement areas, and only modest surface uses such as right-of-way, parking, circulation, and landscaping would be allowed. According to city of Edmonds Public Works personnel, the city intends to vacate existing storm drain utilities within the 84th Avenue W. right-of-way, and these are not included in our analysis. Overall, retained easements will heavily encumber the subject property, which is considered in our analysis. We have included an aerial mapping exhibit of our estimate of the to-be-retained easements at the end of this section. There are no known covenants, conditions or restrictions impacting the site that are considered to affect the marketability or highest and best use. It is recommended that the client/reader obtain a copy of the current covenants, conditions and restrictions, if any, prior to making a business decision. Although CBRE was not provided an Environmental Site Assessment (ESA), a tour of the site did not reveal any obvious issues regarding environmental contamination or adverse conditions. The appraiser is not qualified to detect the existence of potentially hazardous material or underground storage tanks which may be present on or near the site. The existence of hazardous materials or underground storage tanks may affect the value of the property. For this appraisal, CBRE, Inc. has specifically assumed that the underlying land is not affected by any hazardous materials that may be present on or near the property. ATTACHMENT 3   Item 9.1       Packet pg. 214/358 No wetlands or unusual site conditions were noted at the time of inspection. South of the southern boundary of the proposed vacation area (offsite), topography is steep leading down to the developed Edmonds Way (SR-104) roadway and is identified as potential erosion hazard area on city of Edmonds GIS mapping and within a Critical Areas Determination dated January 2, 2024 (CRA2023-0181). However, topography is considered the primary reason for the Critical Areas Determination, and topography is not considered in ATF methodology. As such, we have not considered topography or related potential critical areas (erosion hazard) in our analysis. We have not been provided with a soils report. According to the USDA Web Soil Survey, the subject’s soils consist of Urban Land-Alderwood Complex and Urban Land. According to the USDA, a “complex consists of two or more soils or miscellaneous areas in such an intricate pattern or in such small areas that they cannot be shown separately on the maps.” Alderwood soils are considered moderately well drained with a depth to water table of about 18 to 36 inches. The adjacent land uses are summarized as follows: North: 84th Avenue W. right-of-way South: Edmonds Way (SR-104) right-of-way East: Highway 99 right-of-way West: Residential and commercial The subject property consists of city of Edmonds-owned right of way and is not currently zoned. Property immediately to the northeast of the subject, along Highway 99, is zoned CG (General Commercial); property abutting subject to the west is zoned RM-2.4; and property abutting the subject to the east and south is WSDOT-owned right-of-way (Highway 99 and Edmonds Way/SR-104), which is not zoned. It is noted that the client is also in the process of pursuing vacation of abutting WSDOT-owned right-of-way. According to our discussions with Edmonds planning personnel, per the city’s comprehensive plan and policies, upon vacation and assemblage with abutting property, portions of the subject situated east of the centerline of 84th Avenue W. would be zoned CG (General Commercial), and the portions west of the centerline of 84th Avenue W. (extended) would be zoned RM-2.4. We have estimated that approximately 12,000 square feet of the subject would be zoned RM-2.4, with the balance (11,684 square feet) zoned CG. According to EMC 16.60.005, the purposes of the CG zone are to: A. Encourage economic vitality through business, investment, redevelopment, and efficient use of land; B. Encourage safe and comfortable access for pedestrians, transit, and motorists; C. Encourage attractive mixed-use development, affordable housing, and a variety of commercial uses; and D. Recognized the district’s evolving identity and sense of place, including distinctions between different parts of the district, and to be sensitive to adjacent residential zones. ATTACHMENT 3   Item 9.1       Packet pg. 215/358 Per EMC 16.30.000, the purposes of the RM zones are to: A. To reserve and regulate areas for a variety of housing types, and a range of greater densities than are available in the single-family residential zones, while still maintaining a residential environment; B. To provide for those additional uses which complement and are compatible with multiple residential uses. The following chart summarizes the subject’s zoning requirements.

Based upon the opinion of market value provided in this report, as well as the levy rate applied nearby taxable property, we estimate property taxes for the subject property would be approximately $1,800 per year without consideration of shape. It should be noted, however, that based upon the highest and best use conclusion of assemblage, value of the subject property would be absorbed by abutting property owners and taxed as such. ATTACHMENT 3   Item 9.1       Packet pg. 223/358 The market analysis forms a basis for assessing market area boundaries, supply and demand factors, and indications of financial feasibility. The following data were collected from CoStar Group, www.costar.com. These data pertain to the subject’s market area as defined CoStar. We have included market data and analysis relative to the potential uses of the subject site per the underlying zoning. The Lynnwood multifamily submarket, as defined by CoStar, encompasses the cities of Lynnwood, Edmonds, Mountlake Terrace, and Brier. According to CoStar, “With 2,200 units delivered over the past three years and 650 units still under construction, the Lynnwood multifamily submarket is one of the fastest growing in the region.” Much of the recent, ongoing, and planned development is located near future light rail stations in Lynnwood and Mountlake Terrace—with the bulk of the development taking place in the Lynnwood City Center. Notable projects under construction include the Koz on Alderwood, a 200-unit mid-rise project across from the future light rail station, expected to be completed in 2025. Ember Apartments, a 359-unit project located on the corner of 40th Avenue W. and 198th Street SW, was completed in early 2024. The subject is situated just north of the Shoreline multifamily submarket as defined by CoStar, which has also seen significant transit-oriented development in recent years, as well as recent and ongoing multifamily and mixed-use development along the Highway 99 corridor. Vacancy in the Lynnwood submarket is currently 6.9%, which is slightly below the 7.1% showing for the Seattle metro area. Vacancy can be somewhat volatile, however, due to the delivery of new product. Per CoStar, “Despite the inventory increasing by nearly 20% since 2020, absorption has nearly matched the number of new units, and the vacancy rate has been relatively stable, given the pace of construction.” CoStar notes that 571 units have been delivered over the past 12 months compared to 541 units absorbed over that time. ATTACHMENT 3   Item 9.1       Packet pg. 224/358 (Source: CoStar) Market asking rent in the Lynnwood submarket is reported to be $1,999 per unit per month, roughly 2.2% higher than a year ago and somewhat below the Seattle metro average of $2,041. While strong demand pushed yearly rent growth to a high of 11.3% in the first quarter of 2022, rents in the Lynnwood submarket effectively plateaued in 2023, following a region-wide trend, and have resumed modest increase in 2024. Within the submarket, CoStar anticipates increasing year-over-year rent growth through 2025. ATTACHMENT 3   Item 9.1       Packet pg. 225/358 (Source: CoStar) According to CoStar, sales volume within the submarket is down in the current environment, with transactions totaling roughly $21.7 million over the past 12 months, compared to the five-year average of $183 million. However, “Lynwood's recent growth and the prospect of a further influx of residents with the arrival of light rail have attracted the attention of private equity and institutional investors, in contrast to much of the Seattle region.” The average market price, which is based on the estimated price movement of all properties in the market, is $342,000 per unit compared with $360,000 per unit for the overall metro area. Average market prices per unit in both the submarket and metro area have dipped by roughly 15% to 20% since the peak in the second quarter of 2022. (Source: CoStar) ATTACHMENT 3   Item 9.1       Packet pg. 226/358 The decrease in per-unit market price is reflected in increasing capitalization rates, recognizing the increased cost of capital and elevated perceived risk, as year-over-year rents remained relatively stable within the submarket. Cap rates remain low relative to much of the previous ten years, but as the graph below illustrates, cap rate have risen for all multifamily asset classes since the trough of late 2021 and early 2022. CoStar expects cap rates to peak in mid-2025. (Source: CoStar) Increasing interest rates and capitalization rates have impacted asset values over the past roughly two years. Additionally, elevated borrowing and development costs appear to have slowed the pace of new development projects and multifamily land sales. Nonetheless, development continues within the submarket and region, signaling long-term optimism. Overall, the multifamily housing market in most of the Seattle metro area is expected to remain relatively strong, and demand for multifamily product is expected to continue near term. Home to the nearly 170-store Alderwood Mall, the Edmonds/Lynnwood retail submarket contains 730 buildings totaling 11.2 million square feet, per CoStar. Over the last 12 months, inventory in the submarket has increased by a about 20,400 square feet, which represents just 0.2% of current inventory. CoStar reports no additional retail projects currently under construction. While the retail submarket remains relatively strong, in early 2024, CoStar noted changes to the retail submarket in recent years, stating: “Properties transitioning to other asset types … change the competitive landscape, reducing the total inventory of pure retail assets. This is particularly the case in areas near light rail stations and in the area of Lynnwood between the new light rail station and Alderwood Mall, much of which is zoned for denser use than the current inventory.” The vacancy rate for retail properties within the Edmonds/Lynnwood submarket sits at 4.5%, down from 4.9% a year ago but an increase from the recent low of 2.3% in the first quarter of 2022. ATTACHMENT 3   Item 9.1       Packet pg. 227/358 (Source: CoStar) Market asking rents average $30.06 per square foot per year (NNN), which is slightly above the averages for the Seattle metro area ($29.38). Year-over-year rent growth in the submarket is reported at 1.6%. Rents are anticipated to continue steady increases in the coming years. ATTACHMENT 3   Item 9.1       Packet pg. 228/358 (Source: CoStar) CoStar reports sales volume of $114 million over the last 12 months, generally in line with the five-year average of $118 million. The market sale price per square foot, which is based on the estimated price movement of all properties in the market, is $359 per square foot, which is somewhat above the metro average of $335. Pricing has dipped of late, with the market sale price per square foot declining by a modest 1.8% within the Edmonds/Lynnwood submarket since the peak in the second quarter of 2024, and CoStar anticipates additional decreases into mid-2025. Overall, capitalization rates remained relatively steady in 2022 and 2023 after primarily declining in prior years. Cap rates began to rise in the second half of 2024, and CoStar predicts further increases in cap rates in 2025, influenced by increased interest rates. While rents are expected to continue steady ATTACHMENT 3   Item 9.1       Packet pg. 229/358 increases in the near-term, the decrease in forecasted per-unit market price into 2025 (graph above) is largely reflected in the expectation of increasing capitalization rates (graph below). At this point, cap rates remain low relative to the previous ten years, but as the graph below illustrates, cap rate are expected to rise sharply for all retail asset classes beginning through the first half of 2025, before moderating and peaking in 2026. (Source: CoStar) The impacts of increased interest rates are beginning to be seen within the Edmonds/Lynnwood retail submarket shortly, with declining asset values, rising cap rates, and modest rent increases into 2026. With the peak of increasing cap rates anticipated in 2026, retail property values are forecasted to begin recovering. The Edmonds/Lynnwood submarket contains 359 buildings with about 5.2 million square feet of inventory. There have been no deliveries in the past 12 months, and there are no projects currently under construction, according to CoStar. Overall, the office submarket has seen positive net absorption of roughly 54,900 square feet over the last 12 months, with a vacancy rate of 7.9% currently, down from 9.0% a year ago. The average vacancy rate for the Seattle metro area is currently 16.0%, which shows impacts from the Covid-19 pandemic and enduring work-from-home and hybrid work policies. ATTACHMENT 3   Item 9.1       Packet pg. 230/358 (Source: CoStar) Office asking rents in this submarket are about 17% less expensive than the overall metro area average and sit at $30.49 per square foot gross, compared to $36.72 for the region overall. Rents have remained steady over the last 12 months, with no reported year-over-year rent growth. While the long-term future of the office market remains somewhat unclear at this time as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic and significant changes to many companies’ remote work policies, most forecasts anticipate a reshaping of the office sector in coming years. Within the submarket and region as a whole, CoStar expects rents to decline somewhat into 2026. ATTACHMENT 3   Item 9.1       Packet pg. 231/358 (Source: CoStar) According to CoStar, sales volume totaled $21.8 million over the past 12 months, below the five-year average of $37.8 million. Market sales price per square foot within the submarket is reported at $251, well below the region overall ($398). Market prices in the submarket have declined by 4.8% over the last 12 months. Prices are expected to continue to decline significantly in coming years, bottoming out in 2026, with 23% to 28% decreases from the peak in late 2021. (Source: CoStar) The significant experienced and expected decline in per-square-foot values is the result of flat and predicted decreasing rents, with increasing capitalization rates reflecting interest-rate hikes and elevated perceived risk. Cap rates remained relatively steady from 2018 to 2020, then declined into the second ATTACHMENT 3   Item 9.1       Packet pg. 232/358 half of 2021. Since that time, cap rates have risen, with a notable acceleration occurring in mid-2022, as interest-rate increases commenced in an effort to tame persistent inflation. Overall, cap rates are forecasted to continue to climb at into 2025, with moderation and reductions expected thereafter. (Source: CoStar) The effects of continued work-from-home policies and increasing interest rates are beginning to be manifested in the office market, both locally and regionally, resulting in downward pressure on pricing and increasing cap rates as rents remain relatively flat. With forecasted continuation of these trends, office values are expected to experience further declines in the coming years, straining the sector. According to CoStar, Edmonds/Lynnwood submarket contains 192 buildings totaling 3.2 million square feet, making it among the smaller industrial submarkets in the region. Per CoStar, “The submarket has approximately 2.0 million SF of logistics inventory, 550,000 SF of flex inventory, and 620,000 SF of specialized inventory.” Only 9,400 square feet has been delivered to the market in the last 10 years (in 2018), and demolitions have totaled roughly 132,400 square feet over that timeframe. No projects are currently under construction. Vacancy in the Edmonds/Lynnwood submarket is currently 2.7%, below the rate of the Seattle metro area overall (8.0%). Over the past 12 months, the vacancy rate in the submarket has increased from 2.1%, reflecting negative net absorption of -19,400 square feet over this period. CoStar anticipates overall vacancy in the submarket to increase somewhat in the near term, peaking in 2026. ATTACHMENT 3   Item 9.1       Packet pg. 233/358 (Source: CoStar) Market asking rents average $17.58 per square foot per year, triple-net, which is above the average for the Seattle metro area of $14.39. Year-over-year rent growth in the submarket is report at 1.33%, higher than the region overall (0.8%). CoStar anticipates steady increases for the foreseeable future. ATTACHMENT 3   Item 9.1       Packet pg. 234/358 (Source: CoStar) Twelve-month sales volume within the submarket totaled $28.6 million, slightly above the five-year average of $23.1 million. The average market price, which is based on the estimated price movement of all properties in the submarket, is $300 per square foot, compared with $238 per square foot for the overall metro area. Average market prices per square foot in both the submarket and metro area have remained relatively steady since 2022, with increases expected to resume in the second half of 2025. (Source: CoStar) As year-over-year rents have mostly risen, the generally stagnant market sale price per square foot is reflected in increasing capitalization rates, recognizing the increased cost of capital and elevated perceived risk. Cap rates remain generally in line with much of the previous ten years, but as the graph ATTACHMENT 3   Item 9.1       Packet pg. 235/358 below illustrates, cap rate have risen for all industrial asset types since the trough of late 2021 and early 2022. CoStar expects cap rates to peak in mid-2025 and decline thereafter. (Source: CoStar) Overall, the industrial market in most of the Seattle metro area is expected to remain relatively strong. Rents and pricing within the Edmonds/Lynnwood submarket remain above the region overall; however, the relatively small and generally declining industrial inventory and lack of recent development indicate industrial developers’ preference for other submarkets in the region, while the Edmonds/Lynnwood submarket trends toward multifamily, commercial, and mixed uses. ATTACHMENT 3   Item 9.1       Packet pg. 236/358 In appraisal practice, the concept of highest and best use represents the premise upon which value is based. The four criteria the highest and best use must meet are: • legally permissible; • physically possible; • financially feasible; and • maximally productive. The highest and best use analysis of the subject is discussed below. The subject is a portion of surplus right-of-way and is not functional for independent development. Right-of-way use is a public use with limited alternative utility (see ATF methodology discussion). As discussed in the zoning subsection of the Site Analysis above, according to city of Edmonds planning personnel, upon vacation and assemblage with abutting property, the portions of the subject situated to the east of the 84th Avenue W. right-of-way centerline would be zoned CG (General Commercial), and the portions to the west of the 84th Avenue W. right-of-way centerline would be zoned RM-2.4 (Multiple Residential). The CG zone is a mixed-use zone permitting a wide range of uses, with building heights up 75 feet. The RM-2.4 zone is a primarily residential zone permitting one dwelling unit per 2,400 site square feet and base building heights of 25 feet. As discussed in the in the Site Analysis section above, upon vacation, the subject will be heavily encumbered by retained easements for existing utilities. Our analysis first evaluates the subject property as unencumbered, followed by a diminution reflecting the effects of retained easements on the utility of the property. Elements such as availability of utilities, known hazards (flood, wetland, environmental, etc.), and other potential influences are described in the Site Analysis and have been considered. It should be noted, however, that per standard ATF methodology, the unique size and shape are not considered, nor is topography. As previously discussed, the subject is a relatively narrow 23,684-square-foot portion of right-of-way with little utility other than for assemblage. In the case of the subject, the areas to the east and south of the property are public rights-of-way (Highway 99 to the east and Edmonds Way/SR-104 to the south). It is noted that the client, who owns property west of 84th Avenue W. is also pursuing the vacation of portions of the WSDOT-owned right-of- way to the east and south. These factors effectively create a dual monopoly, which we have not considered in our ATF analysis. Among the financially feasible uses, the use that results in the highest value (the maximally productive use) is the highest and best use. Considering these factors, the maximally productive use as though vacant is for assemblage. ATTACHMENT 3   Item 9.1       Packet pg. 237/358 The conclusion of the highest and best use as if vacant is for assemblage. Our analysis of the subject and its respective market characteristics indicate the most likely buyer, as if vacant, would be an abutting property owner looking for development opportunities through assemblage. The subject property is effectively unimproved. ATTACHMENT 3   Item 9.1       Packet pg. 238/358 In appraisal practice, an approach to value is included or omitted based on its applicability to the property type being valued and the quality and quantity of information available. The cost approach is based on the proposition that the informed purchaser would pay no more for the subject than the cost to produce a substitute property with equivalent utility. The Sales Comparison Approach utilizes sales of comparable properties, adjusted for differences, to indicate a value for the subject, usually based on a typical unit of comparison. The Income Capitalization Approach considers the market rent the subject would be capable of producing, less expenses, and capitalized into a value indication. The Real Estate community has long recognized the ATF methodology for valuing corridors and street vacations. The methodology evaluates the abutting properties, essentially as a proxy for the subject, since direct comparables are not available (streets are not typically sold on the open market). The concept of ATF attempts to recognize the value of a corridor property that was ostensibly assembled from abutting properties to create an economic unit that benefits from a unique size, shape and the element of connectivity between two points. The premium for such assemblage is often the subject of debate (as it may be tied to business value); however, the underlying premise that the abutting lands are suitable as the valuation foundation is generally acknowledged by appraisers. As discussed above, per our conversations with city of Edmonds planning personnel, upon assemblage, the subject would be split- zoned, with approximately 11,684 CG (General Commercial) and 12,000 zoned RM-2.4. This is the value upon which a typical seller would base an offering price. It is logical to expect that the abutting owner would recognize the similar utility afforded to his/her property if assembled. The sales comparison approach for land is utilized to develop an opinion of land value, because market participants rely on this method. The subject is valued as vacant land, so the cost approach is not applicable. The subject is valued as vacant land, so the sales comparison approach for improved property is not applicable. Being valued as vacant land, the income approach for improved property is not applicable. The unit of comparison depends on land use economics and how buyers and sellers use the property. According to our research and discussions with market participants, commercial and mixed-use land is typically bought and sold based on price per square foot, which is the unit of comparison in the analysis of the (to-be) CG-zoned portion of the property. With respect to the RM-2.4-zoned portion, market participants typically buy and sell multifamily land on the basis of price per potential unit. However, as this analysis utilizes ATF methodology to value the corridor, price per square foot is appropriate, and the unit ATTACHMENT 3   Item 9.1       Packet pg. 239/358 of comparison in this analysis price per square foot, with a check of reasonableness based on price per potential unit. Elements of comparison are the characteristics or attributes of properties and transactions that cause the prices of real estate to vary. The primary elements of comparison considered in sales comparison analysis are as follows: (1) property rights conveyed, (2) financing terms, (3) conditions of sale, (4) expenditures made immediately after purchase, (5) market conditions, (6) location, and (7) physical characteristics. To obtain and verify comparable sales of improved retail properties, we conducted searches of CBA, CoStar, and NWMLS databases; public records; field surveys; interviews with knowledgeable real estate professionals in the area; and a review of our internal database. We included several mixed-use and multifamily land sales in our analysis, judged to be the most comparable, to develop an indication of market value for the subject property. ATTACHMENT 3   Item 9.1       Packet pg. 240/358 The following map and table summarize the comparable data used in the valuation of the subject CG- zoned portion of the subject. A detailed description of each transaction is included in the addenda. SUMMARY OF COMPARABLE LAND SALES - CG ZONED PORTION Actual Sale Adjusted Sale Size Size Adj. Price Adj.

The property is irregular in shape, with roughly 185 feet of frontage on Highway 99 at the east and pipestem access from 60th Avenue W. at the west. It is zoned CG (general commercial) by the city of Lynnwood, which allows for maximum lot coverage of 35% and a wide range of commercial uses, office, lodging, and light industrial. The property is also within the Highway 99 corridor on the the city's future land-use maps, which allows for multifamily residential and mixed-use development with building heights up to 90 feet and FAR of 3.0 if developed with a density of at least 20 dwelling units per acre (50-foot height limit and maximum FAR of 1.0 of developed at a lower density). The site was previously improved with an auto shop building which burned down last year. The property is cleared and generally level. According to the listing broker, the buyer is the proprietor of Aurora Rents, an equipment and party rental company, and plans to develop the property with a rental location/store. The property sold in March 2024 for $3,250,000, or $48.45 per square foot. "This is the December 2023 sale of a vacant 5.81-acre tax parcel located at the corner of 164th Street SW and Manor Way in unincorporated Snohomish County, near Lynnwood. The property is somewhat irregular in shape and is generally level overall. It is zoned UC (Urban Center) by Snohomish County, a mixed-use zone permitting base building heights of 90 feet, with increases up to 125 feet if located within 1/8-mile of certain transit options. All utilities are available. The property went on the market in early June 2023, unpriced, and the listing broker stated that there was strong interest. It went under contract in late August of 2023 with a typical feasibility period and closing expected by the end of the year. Per the broker, the buyer intends to develop the property with primarily multifamily residential use. The property sold on December 19, 2023, for $10.500.000, or $41.49 per square foot. According to a preliminary application submitted just after closing (23-119796-000-00-PA), the buyer planned to develop the property with 130 townhome units. A subsequent preliminary application submitted in January 2024 (24-101602-000-00-PA) indicates revised plans for a 125-unit Townhouse Unit Lot Subdivision. The sale price equates to $80,769 per unit at 130 units (planned as of closing) and $84,000 per unit at 125 units (most recent information)." This is the November 2022 sale of a 4.90-acre (213,444-square-foot) redevelopment site located at 3225 164th Street SW in unincorporated Snohomish County, near Lynnwood. The property is rectangular in shape and has generally level topography. It is zoned UC (Urban Center) by Snohomish County, a mixed- use zone permitting base building heights of 90 feet, with increases up to 125 feet if located within 1/8- mile of certain transit options. According to the buyer, the seller had obtained "schematic approvals" including approved unit counts and offsite obligations, which the buyer characterized as a strong selling point but did not quantify. The buyer noted that offsite requirements included extending Admiralty Way from its terminus northeast of the property to 164th Street SW and estimated the cost to be $1.5 million, which is not included in the analysis price utilized here. The property went under contract in July of 2021, and the buyer worked to complete construction permits. As of August 2023, construction of a two- building, 326-unit apartment complex is underway, with the first building expected to be complete in October of 2024 and the second in April or May of 2025. The transaction closed on November 1, 2022, for $11,840,000, or $55.47 per square foot ($36,319 per unit). ATTACHMENT 3   Item 9.1       Packet pg. 242/358 This comparable represents an assemblage of five parcels totaling 3.63-acres or 158,195 square feet. The site is partially improved with three buildings (ice skating rink, single-family residence, and warehouse). The property is irregular in shape, is generally level, has frontage on N 182nd St, Linden Ave N and Aurora Ave N and is zoned TC-2, Town Center 2 which allows for residential and commercial development up to 70 feet. The following addresses are associated with the site: 18002 Aurora Ave N, 18005 Aurora Ave N, 18019 Aurora Ave N, and 907 N 182nd St, in Shoreline, Washington. The assemblage sold for a total price of $13,350,000. There were two purchase and sale agreements associated with the purchase, one for $850,000 representing a single parcel and the second for $12,500,000 representing four parcels. The Highland Sports Center property was brought to market June 2020 by Marty Rood from Mr. 99 and Associates. The property was originally listed for $15,095,000 (based upon improvement value), and received four offers, three of which were from developers. The offers received were over and under the asking price. The buyer's offer was selected due to the buyer's reputation, and the certainty of closing. The Chih Pu Tsai property was not openly marketed, however the seller was represented by Todd Young of Windermere Midtown. According to the seller's agent, the seller had learned that the Highland Sports Center was under contract and asked their agent to contact the developer to sell their property. The price was negotiated between both parties. Our discussions with the buyer, and seller's representatives indicate that this is an arms-length transaction and neither party is under distress. The buyer intends to demolish the existing improvements in January 2023 and redevelop the site with two 6-story mid-rise apartment buildings which include on level of above-grade parking garage and one-level of below-grade parking and a total of 385-units. The larger site closed on October 21, 2022 for $12,500,000 while the remaining (smaller) site closed in January 2023. The total purchase price is $13,350,000 or $84.39 per square foot of land area, or $34,675 per unit. This comparable represents the sale of a 0.44-acre (19,166-square-foot) site located at 23930 Highway 99 in Edmonds, WA. The site has corner frontage along Highway 99 and 240th Street SW and is irregular in shape. The site is zoned CG (general commercial) by the city of Lynnwood, which allows for maximum lot coverage of 35% and a wide range of commercial uses, office, lodging, and light industrial. The property is also within the Highway 99 corridor on the city's future land-use maps, which allows for multifamily residential and mixed-use development with building heights up to 90 feet and FAR of 3.0 if developed with a density of at least 20 dwelling units per acre (50-foot height limit and maximum FAR of 1.0 of developed at a lower density). At the time of sale, the property was improved with a 2,140 square- foot office building. The site sold to the existing tenant as a direct deal between the buyer and seller. The buyer plans to continue to operate their business at this location, however the value was in the land and no additional value was given to the office building. Although this was a direct deal with the former tenant, the sale was arm's length and generally at market pricing. This comparable is the sale of a 1.4-acre site located at the corner of Highway 99 and 330th Street SW in Edmonds, Washington. The property was improved with a 9,978-SF retail center, car lot, and billboard at the time of sale. The site is zoned GC, General Commercial, and was marketed as a redevelopment site. The building was 100% occupied at the time of sale. The property sold in May 2021 for $3,050,000, or $50.01/SF of land. The buyer indicated that the seller inherited this property and wanted a quick closing and may have received a discounted price for this reason. ATTACHMENT 3   Item 9.1       Packet pg. 243/358 We have considered the Dates of Sale in our analysis of all of the comparable sales, though per standard ATF methodology, we have not considered size or shape of the comparable sales. When necessary, adjustments were made for differences in various elements of comparison, including property rights conveyed, financing terms, conditions of sale, expenditures made immediately after purchase, market conditions, location, and other physical characteristics. If the element in comparison is considered superior to that of the subject, we applied a negative adjustment. Conversely, a positive adjustment was applied if inferior. A summary of the elements of comparison follows. Transaction adjustments include (1) real property rights conveyed, (2) financing terms, (3) conditions of sale, and (4) expenditures made immediately after purchase. These items, which are applied prior to the market conditions and property adjustments, are discussed as follows. Real property rights conveyed influence sale prices and must be considered when analyzing a sale comparable. The comparables are considered to be reflective of fee simple interests. A downward adjustment is applied to Sale 3, as it reportedly sold with some entitlements in place. No adjustments are made to the remaining sales. As discussed above, several utilities exist within the subject, and it is our understanding that the majority will require retained easements upon vacation of the right-of-way. Our analysis first evaluates the subject property as unencumbered, followed by a diminution reflecting the effects of retained easements on the utility of the property. The transaction price of one property may differ from that of an identical property due to different financial arrangements. Sales involving financing terms that are not at or near market terms require adjustments for cash equivalency to reflect typical market terms. A cash equivalency procedure discounts the atypical mortgage terms to provide an indication of value at cash equivalent terms. The selected sales were reflective of cash transactions. Sales which occurred under unusual or atypical conditions require adjustments for conditions of sale. This category is different from the adjustment for time, which will be dealt with subsequently. An upward adjustment is made to Sale 6, because the seller reportedly wanted a quick closing, which may have affected the sale price, per the buyer. Market conditions change over time because of inflation, deflation, fluctuations in supply and demand, or other factors. Changing market conditions may create a need for adjustment to comparable sale transactions completed during periods of dissimilar market conditions. The comparable sales represent transactions from mid-2021 to early 2024. A review of market data (see market analysis section) indicates that rents have generally been increasing for improved multifamily residential and retail properties, and demand is anticipated to remain relatively strong overall. However, increased interest rates through the second half of 2022 into 2023 in response persistent inflation have affected pricing for improved properties, per CoStar. Our review of the subject’s market area made clear that paired sales activity is extremely limited for mixed-use land. Our discussions with brokers, developers, as well as observations of ATTACHMENT 3   Item 9.1       Packet pg. 244/358 market activity, lead us to conclude that the pace of sales for properties similar to the subject is characterized by relatively few sales each year. Further discussions indicate that while land values generally increased into 2022, interest-rate increases and market uncertainty have led to decreases since the height of the market in mid-2022, with many developers and investors refraining from new acquisitions in the current market. As such, we have applied a modest downward adjustment to Sale 5, which occurred in early 2022, near the peak of the market and prior to the commencement of interest-rate increases. An upward adjustment is made to Sale 6, which took place in May of 2021. No adjustments are made to the remaining sales, all of which closed after interest-rate increases began. Property adjustments can be expressed quantitatively – as percentages or dollar amounts that reflect the differences in value attributable to the various characteristics of the property – or qualitatively, depending upon the availability of data in a particular submarket. Our analysis applies the latter, based on locational and physical characteristics and are applied after transactional and market conditions adjustments. Our reasoning for the property adjustments made to each sale comparable follows. The discussion analyzes each adjustment category deemed applicable to the subject property. Location adjustments may be required when the locational characteristics of a comparable are different from those of the subject. These characteristics can include market area, general neighborhood characteristics, neighboring properties, and other factors. To support adjustments for location, we have relied on demographic data, CoStar rent and pricing metrics, discussions with market participants, development trends, and our experience appraising mixed-use and multifamily land within the market area. The following chart shows selected demographics within three miles of the subject and comparable sales.

Compiled by CBRE The chart above supports upward adjustments to Sales 1 through 3, which are located further north in Lynnwood and unincorporated Snohomish County (near Lynnwood), areas with inferior demographic characteristics, notably household income. The chart above indicates no adjustments are required for Sales 4 through 6; however, a downward adjustment is made to Sale 4, as it is located in Shoreline in an area with substantial mixed-use and multifamily redevelopment taking place. Located near the subject in Edmonds, no adjustments are applied to Sales 5 and 6. Site quality adjustments are also somewhat subjective and can include, but are not limited to overall appeal, visibility and exposure, impact by critical areas, encumbering easements, and physical characteristics suitable for development. The subject abuts the Highway 99 corridor (albeit somewhat set ATTACHMENT 3   Item 9.1       Packet pg. 245/358 back from the developed roadway) and somewhat benefits from frontage on Highway 99, a highly traveled commercial corridor with average visibility and exposure. (We note that no access from Highway 99 would be permitted according to information provided by WSDOT, addressed in Access/Utilities adjustments below.) All of the sales have frontage on major roadways. Sales 2, 3, 5, and 6 are corner sites, warranting downward adjustments. No adjustments are warranted for the remaining sales. As noted, several easements for existing utilities will be reserved upon vacation, according to our discussions with the various utility providers. Our analysis first evaluates the subject property as unencumbered, followed by a diminution reflecting the effects of retained easements on the utility of the property. All of the comparables are located in zones in which mixed-use development is permitted. Density varies by zone and governing jurisdiction. The market is not sufficiently precise to account for minor differences in permitted density; however, our discussions with local brokers indicate developers will pay more for land with higher allowable density, or with no density limitations. We have also considered the practicality of maximizing density based upon other limitations including building coverage ratios, density limitations and height restrictions, to name a few. The following chart outlines the various zoning requirements of the subject and the comparables.

The zoning jurisdictions of Sales 1 through 3 allow for greater building heights than the subject’s zoning; however, Sales 1 through 3 have zoning in which floor area ratio (FAR) is limited by code, unlike the subject. Overall, modest upward adjustments are made to Sales 1 through 3. No adjustments are applied to the remaining sales. ATTACHMENT 3   Item 9.1       Packet pg. 246/358 As discussed previously, the subject has frontage on Highway 99, but access from Highway 99 (and Edmonds Way) would be prohibited by WSDOT, with access to the subject site relegated to 84th Avenue W. Although sufficient access to the subject exists, the access is considered inferior to several of the comparable sales, particularly as it relates to commercial and mixed-use appeal. Sales 1, 3, 4, and 6 benefit from direct access to/from their major fronting roadways, and downward adjustments are made. Access to the remaining sales is via secondary streets, and no adjustments are applied. Based on our comparative analysis, the following chart summarizes the adjustments warranted to each comparable. As noted earlier, these qualitative adjustments were based on our market research, best judgment, and experience in the appraisal of similar properties.

After adjustments, the range narrows, with Sale 1 establishing the low end of the range at $48.45 per square foot and Sale 3 setting the upper end of the range at $55.47 per square foot. Sale 6 ($50) is considered similar to the subject overall, suggesting a value for the subject nearer the lower end of the indicated range. In consideration of all of the above, as of October 5, 2024, a value of $50.00 per square foot for the to-be CG-zoned portion of subject property is considered reasonable and supported prior to consideration of the effect of retained utility easements, discussed below.

It has been renumbered here for sequencing and ease of reading 2 Adjusted sale price for cash equivalency and/or development costs (where applicable) Compiled by CBRE Transaction ATTACHMENT 3   Item 9.1       Packet pg. 248/358 "This is the December 2023 sale of a vacant 5.81-acre tax parcel located at the corner of 164th Street SW and Manor Way in unincorporated Snohomish County, near Lynnwood. The property is somewhat irregular in shape and is generally level overall. It is zoned UC (Urban Center) by Snohomish County, a mixed-use zone permitting base building heights of 90 feet, with increases up to 125 feet if located within 1/8-mile of certain transit options. All utilities are available. The property went on the market in early June 2023, unpriced, and the listing broker stated that there was strong interest. It went under contract in late August of 2023 with a typical feasibility period and closing expected by the end of the year. Per the broker, the buyer intends to develop the property with primarily multifamily residential use. The property sold on December 19, 2023, for $10.500.000, or $41.49 per square foot. According to a preliminary application submitted just after closing (23-119796-000-00-PA), the buyer planned to develop the property with 130 townhome units. A subsequent preliminary application submitted in January 2024 (24-101602-000-00-PA) indicates revised plans for a 125-unit Townhouse Unit Lot Subdivision. The sale price equates to $80,769 per unit at 130 units (planned as of closing) and $84,000 per unit at 125 units (most recent information)." This comparable represents the November 2023 sale of the 1.19-acre development parcel located at 15732 40th Ave W in unincorporated Snohomish County but with a mailing address in Lynnwood, Washington. The rectangular, unimproved lot is mostly level with a maximum 7% grade in some parts and was essentially landlocked at the southern end of 40th Avenue, with multifamily developments to the south and east, and a mobile home park to the west fronting Highway 99/Aurora Ave. The seller spent the last couple years obtaining environmental approvals and entitlements for a 28-unit townhome development. It was not openly marketed but sold for $3,200,000, or $61.73 per square foot to a multifamily developer. This is the August 2023 transaction of an 8,798-square-foot redevelopment site located at the corner of NE 145th Street and 17th Avenue NE in Shoreline. It is rectangularly shaped with generally moderately sloping topography, and the property sits several feet above the NE 145th Street frontage. It is zoned R- 48 by the city of Shoreline, a multifamily residential zone permitting a maximum density of 48 dwelling units per acre and base building heights of 35 feet. The property is improved with an older, boarded-up single-family residence that is not considered contributory to value. According to the listing broker, due to site and access constraints, the property is expected to yield five to six townhome units--a density of 25 units per acre at five units. The broker stated that the property was previously under contract, but the transaction fell through due to an overseas seller and issues with title which have since been resolved. The asking price was reduced to $550,000 in late May of 2023. The property went under contract pending feasibility on June 24, 2023, with a 30-day feasibility period and closing expected thereafter. The listing broker stated that the buyer intends to pursue development of five townhomes. The sale closed in August 2023 for $548,000, or about $110,000 per unit at five units ($62 per square foot). This is the June 2023 sale of a 10,019-square-foot (0.23-acre) vacant lot located off of 212th Street SW in north Edmonds. The property is rectangular in shape, with mostly level topography and an area of sloping topography at the east. It is zoned RM2.4 by the City of Edmonds, a multifamily residential zone ATTACHMENT 3   Item 9.1       Packet pg. 249/358 permitting a density of one dwelling unit per 2,400 site square feet (about 18 units per acre) and building heights of 25 feet. The property is part of the Arbor Villa condo development and is subject to CC&Rs. It is accessed through the condo development via an access and utilities easement. The listing broker stated that development would likely require release from the CC&Rs and stated that pushback from the condo association is expected (and had occurred in past attempts to develop). Nonetheless, the buyer reportedly intends to pursue development of four units on the property (either townhomes or a fourplex), and the sale price is said to reflect the challenges ahead. The property sold on June 20, 2023, for $300,000, or $75,000 per potential unit and $29.94 per square foot. This is the June 2022 sale of a 10,204-square-foot (0.23-acre) vacant lot located at the corner of Midvale Avenue N and N 155th Street in Shoreline, one parcel removed from SR-99. The property is somewhat narrowly (60-foot-deep) rectangular in shape and has moderately sloping topography from north to south. It is split-zone, with the northern roughly 35% zoned R-48 and the remainder zoned MB (mixed business). The R-48 is a multifamily residential zone permitting 48 dwelling units per acre and building heights of 30 feet; the MB zone is a mixed-use use zone permitting heights up 70 feet with no expressed density limits. However, per SMC 20.50.020.D.1, the boundary line between the zone is treated as a lot line, and setbacks are enforced from the boundary. According to discussions with Shoreline planning personnel, after the sale, the buyer conducted pre-application meetings regarding the development of a 25-unit mixed-use structure on the MB-zoned portion and a duplex on the R-48-zoned area--with the required setbacks from the zone boundary line impacting potential development. The property sold on June 1, 2022, for $524,700, or $51.42 per square foot ($20,988 per unit at the proposed 25 units). ATTACHMENT 3   Item 9.1       Packet pg. 250/358 We have considered the Dates of Sale in our analysis of all of the comparable sales, though per standard ATF methodology, we have not considered size or shape of the comparable sales. When necessary, adjustments were made for differences in various elements of comparison, including property rights conveyed, financing terms, conditions of sale, expenditures made immediately after purchase, market conditions, location, and other physical characteristics. If the element in comparison is considered superior to that of the subject, we applied a negative adjustment. Conversely, a positive adjustment was applied if inferior. A summary of the elements of comparison follows. Additional discussion regarding the elements of comparison below can be found in the analysis of the CG-zoned portion above. The comparables are considered to be reflective of fee simple interests. Sale 8 transacted with entitlements for a 28-unit townhome development, and a significant downward adjustment is made. An upward adjustment is applied to Sale 10, which would reportedly need to be released from CC&Rs prior to development. No adjustments are made to the remaining sales. Retained easements are addressed subsequent to our conclusion of the fee value of the subject. The selected sales were reflective of cash transactions. No adjustments are applied. No adjustments are warranted for conditions of sale. We have applied a modest downward adjustment to Sale 5, which occurred in mid-2022, near the peak of the market and prior to the impact of interest-rate increases. No adjustments are applied to the remaining sales. Sales 1 and 2 are located further north in unincorporated Snohomish County, near Lynnwood, and upward adjustments are made. Downward adjustments are applied to Sales 9 and 11, which are located in Shoreline. No adjustment is made to Sale 10, which is situated in north Edmonds. As it relates to medium-density multifamily residential development, frontage and visibility/exposure along major roadways is considered to be largely offset by the elevated traffic noise and overall activity. All of the sales are considered suitable for medium-density multifamily residential development, and no adjustments are made. Retained easements are addressed subsequent to our conclusion of the fee value of the subject. All of the comparables are located in zones in which multifamily development is permitted. As discussed in the Zoning subsection of the Site Analysis above, the subject’s RM-2.4 zoning permits a density of one ATTACHMENT 3   Item 9.1       Packet pg. 251/358 dwelling unit per 2,400 site square feet (roughly 18 dwelling units per acre) and base building heights of 25 feet. The Snohomish County UC zoning of Sale 7 and 8 allows for much greater building heights with no expressed density limitations. Significant downward adjustments are warranted, though the fact the each of these properties was purchased for townhome development tempers the adjustment somewhat. Sale 9 is zoned R-48 by the city of Shoreline, which allows for 48 dwelling units per acre and buildings up to 35 feet, warranting a downward adjustment similar to those made to Sales 1 and 2. A more modest downward adjustment is applied to Sale 11, which is split-zoned MB (Mixed Business) and R-48 by the city of Shoreline. The adjustment is tempered because under Shoreline zoning code, the zoning line is treated as a lot line for setback purposes, which reportedly impacts the development potential of the site. No adjustment is made to Sale 10, which like the subject, is zoned RM-2.4 by the city of Edmonds. The subject and all of the comparable sales have adequate access and access to all utilities. No adjustments are applied. Based on our comparative analysis, the following chart summarizes the adjustments warranted to each comparable. As noted earlier, these qualitative adjustments were based on our market research, best judgment, and experience in the appraisal of similar properties.

After adjustments, the range narrows, with Sale 10 establishing the low end of the range at $30 per square foot and Sale 7 setting the upper end of the range at $$41 per square foot. Sale 10 is considered most similar to the subject overall, suggesting a value for the subject somewhat nearer the lower end of the indicated range, though development of Sale 10 would ostensibly require release from CC&Rs (which the buyer believed could be obtained). Furthermore, the far superior zoning of Sale 7, allowing for much greater building heights and intensity of use, is somewhat offset by its inferior location and planned townhome development of the property. Overall, a value for the subject near ATTACHMENT 3   Item 9.1       Packet pg. 252/358 the middle of the indicated range is appropriate. In consideration of all of the above, as of October 5, 2024, a value of $35.00 per square foot for the to-be RM-2.4-zoned portion of subject property is considered reasonable and supported prior to consideration of the effect of retained utility easements, discussed below. As a test of reasonableness, we have also evaluated the subject based on price per potential dwelling unit. In this analysis, we recognize that the subject is not suitable for independent development and have considered a representative parcel while still omitting size considerations. For the purposes of this analysis, the subject is analyzed as if assembled to create a 48,000-square-foot parcel which can support 20 dwelling units per the underlying RM-2.4 zoning. Prior to adjustments, the comparables indicate a range of $20,988 to $114,286 per unit. Sales 7 through 10 were purchased with potential townhome development in mind, which we believe to be representative use of city of Edmonds RM-2.4-zoned land given the development criteria. These sales range from $75,000 to $114,286, with the upper end of the range being the entitled Sale 8. The previously concluded per-square-foot value of $35.00 applied to a 48,000-square-foot representative lot equates to $84,000 per potential dwelling unit, which is bracketed by the comparable sales, supporting our per-square-foot value conclusion. As noted in the Easements and Encumbrances subsection of the Site Analysis there are multiple utilities located within and adjacent to the subject. These utilities include a subsurface water main and sewer main (Olympic View Water and Sewer District), and a natural gas main (PSE). The utilities generally run north-south. According to city of Olympic View Water and Sewer District personnel, easements would be reserved for the existing water and sewer utilities within the subject. A representative for Olympic View Water and Sewer District stated that typical easement widths for water and sewer utilities are 15 feet and prohibit structures within easement areas but allow for modest surface uses such as right-of-way, circulation, parking, and landscaping. While we have not had direct contact with PSE regarding its gas line, the client has relayed that PSE would require an easement with a width of five feet on either side of the centerline of the facilities (10 feet total), with no structures allowed within the easement area. This is in line with the many PSE underground utility easements we have reviewed and is considered reliable. The following chart and map illustrate the to-be-retained easements as we understand them.

See survey in Addenda.) In the map above, estimated retained waterline easement is outlined and shaded in blue, sewer is in red, natural gas is in orange, and storm drain is in green. Water, sewer, and storm utility locations are per city of Edmonds GIS mapping, and the natural gas line is an approximation of imagery provided by the client (from a utility locate technician). An easement involves a discount to the value of a property to account for the loss of property rights associated with the easement. In accordance with the “bundle of rights” theory of property, real property can be analyzed as a bundle of rights or a bundle of sticks with the fee interest representing the complete bundle. An easement under this analogy represents the loss or the taking of some of these rights, or sticks, in the bundle. Typically, the property is then of less value due to the owner’s loss of some rights associated with fee ownership. ATTACHMENT 3   Item 9.1       Packet pg. 254/358 Impacts due to easements are based upon actual sales, transactions by public and private entities, case studies, and literature published by the Appraisal Institute and the American Right of Way Association. Our easement experience includes numerous Appraisals of actual acquired easements including the following: - Powerlines - Sewer lines - Natural gas lines - Water lines - Sidewalk, slope, and construction easements - Wall and wall maintenance easements - Road rights-of-way - Avigation easements - Conservation easements - Flowage easements Our experience reflects the full range of loss depending on utility for future use. Easement acquisition impacts are derived, in part, from ongoing surveys performed by our firm. The surveys involve interviews with numerous parties that either own significant corridors or rights-of-way and/or are active in obtaining and granting easements, licenses, permits, and other similar instruments. We have interviewed representatives of the Bonneville Power Administration (BPA), Puget Sound Energy (PSE), Seattle Public Utilities (SPU), and Snohomish County PUD, as well as employees at various cities and utility districts in the Puget Sound region. The surveys revealed that the calculation of easement damages for subterranean easements may range generally from 10% to 50% with the lower end of the range for easements along the periphery of property boundaries, or within areas that are otherwise not buildable due to setbacks required by zoning. Aerial and surface easements tend to reflect increased discounts above 50%, and in some cases, close to 100%. This higher discount reflects the increased reduction in potential uses afforded to the underlying fee simple property owner by such easements. The following are specific examples based on our surveys from various agencies for easements: ATTACHMENT 3   Item 9.1       Packet pg. 255/358 Bonneville Power Administration (BPA)Surface &High Voltage 25% to 100%*See Note 1 Aerial Power Transmission Lines * Low end of range paid by BPA for esmts. in rural and agricultural areas; Higher end (75-100%) of range is in urban areas Note 1) Typically released to owners at no cost.

Source: CBRE VAS Group SUMMARY OF EASEMENT SUPPORT INFORMATION The relative impacts from the easement are still analyzed pursuant to highest and best use of the subject. In addition to our survey and research, the following published information provides guidance for support of diminution in value for various easements: ATTACHMENT 3   Item 9.1       Packet pg. 256/358 Appraisal of Easements under the State Rule, Appraisal Journal Negligible Restrictions None, ephemeral or occasional Nominal to 10% Variable Restrictions Physical joint use of surface 50% more or less Exclusive Restrictions Exclusion of owners private use 90% to 100% Compiled by CBRE No change to HBU or Larger Parcel Variable change to HBU and/or Larger Parcel Substantial change in HBU; Severance from Larger Parcel EASEMENT RIGHTS BALANCE SHEET The above chart was written by Donald Sherwood, SR/WA for the May/June 2006 Right of Way Journal.

While portions of the subject are situated outside easement areas as shown above, these areas are largely limited in utility as well due to retained easements resulting in effective severance from other buildable land. Accordingly, we have applied a diminution of 75% to the subject property overall, reflecting the lack of utility of the site in light of retained easements, summarized below.

ATTACHMENT 3   Item 9.1       Packet pg. 259/358 CBRE, Inc. through its appraiser (collectively, “CBRE”) has inspected through reasonable observation the subject property. However, it is not possible or reasonably practicable to personally inspect conditions beneath the soil and the entire interior and exterior of the improvements on the subject property. Therefore, no representation is made as to such matters. 1. The report, including its conclusions and any portion of such report (the “Report”), is as of the date set forth in the letter of transmittal and based upon the information, market, economic, and property conditions and projected levels of operation existing as of such date. The dollar amount of any conclusion as to value in the Report is based upon the purchasing power of the U.S. Dollar on such date. The Report is subject to change as a result of fluctuations in any of the foregoing. CBRE has no obligation to revise the Report to reflect any such fluctuations or other events or conditions which occur subsequent to such date. 2. Unless otherwise expressly noted in the Report, CBRE has assumed that: (i) Title to the subject property is clear and marketable and that there are no recorded or unrecorded matters or exceptions to title that would adversely affect marketability or value. CBRE has not examined title records (including without limitation liens, encumbrances, easements, deed restrictions, and other conditions that may affect the title or use of the subject property) and makes no representations regarding title or its limitations on the use of the subject property. Insurance against financial loss that may arise out of defects in title should be sought from a qualified title insurance company. (ii) Existing improvements on the subject property conform to applicable local, state, and federal building codes and ordinances, are structurally sound and seismically safe, and have been built and repaired in a workmanlike manner according to standard practices; all building systems (mechanical/electrical, HVAC, elevator, plumbing, etc.) are in good working order with no major deferred maintenance or repair required; and the roof and exterior are in good condition and free from intrusion by the elements. CBRE has not retained independent structural, mechanical, electrical, or civil engineers in connection with this appraisal and, therefore, makes no representations relative to the condition of improvements. CBRE appraisers are not engineers and are not qualified to judge matters of an engineering nature, and furthermore structural problems or building system problems may not be visible. It is expressly assumed that any purchaser would, as a precondition to closing a sale, obtain a satisfactory engineering report relative to the structural integrity of the property and the integrity of building systems. (iii) Any proposed improvements, on or off-site, as well as any alterations or repairs considered will be completed in a workmanlike manner according to standard practices. (iv) Hazardous materials are not present on the subject property. CBRE is not qualified to detect such substances. The presence of substances such as asbestos, urea formaldehyde foam insulation, contaminated groundwater, mold, or other potentially hazardous materials may affect the value of the property. (v) No mineral deposit or subsurface rights of value exist with respect to the subject property, whether gas, liquid, or solid, and no air or development rights of value may be transferred. CBRE has not considered any rights associated with extraction or exploration of any resources, unless otherwise expressly noted in the Report. (vi) There are no contemplated public initiatives, governmental development controls, rent controls, or changes in the present zoning ordinances or regulations governing use, density, or shape that would significantly affect the value of the subject property. (vii) All required licenses, certificates of occupancy, consents, or other legislative or administrative authority from any local, state, or national government or private entity or organization have been or can be readily obtained or renewed for any use on which the Report is based. (viii) The subject property is managed and operated in a prudent and competent manner, neither inefficiently, nor super-efficiently. (ix) The subject property and its use, management, and operation are in full compliance with all applicable federal, state, and local regulations, laws, and restrictions, including without limitation environmental laws, seismic hazards, flight patterns, decibel levels/noise envelopes, fire hazards, hillside ordinances, density, allowable uses, building codes, permits, and licenses. (x) The subject property is in full compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). CBRE is not qualified to assess the subject property’s compliance with the ADA, notwithstanding any discussion of possible readily achievable barrier removal construction items in the Report. ATTACHMENT 3   Item 9.1       Packet pg. 260/358 (xi) All information regarding the areas and dimensions of the subject property furnished to CBRE are correct, and no encroachments exist. CBRE has neither undertaken any survey of the boundaries of the subject property, nor reviewed or confirmed the accuracy of any legal description of the subject property. Unless otherwise expressly noted in the Report, no issues regarding the foregoing were brought to CBRE’s attention, and CBRE has no knowledge of any such facts affecting the subject property. If any information inconsistent with any of the foregoing assumptions is discovered, such information could have a substantial negative impact on the Report and any conclusions stated therein. Accordingly, if any such information is subsequently made known to CBRE, CBRE reserves the right to amend the Report, which may include the conclusions of the Report. CBRE assumes no responsibility for any conditions regarding the foregoing, or for any expertise or knowledge required to discover them. Any user of the Report is urged to retain an expert in the applicable field(s) for information regarding such conditions. 3. CBRE has assumed that all documents, data and information furnished by or on behalf of the client, property owner or owner’s representative are accurate and correct, unless otherwise expressly noted in the Report. Such data and information include, without limitation, numerical street addresses, lot and block numbers, Assessor’s Parcel Numbers, land dimensions, square footage area of the land, dimensions of the improvements, gross building areas, net rentable areas, usable areas, unit count, room count, rent schedules, income data, historical operating expenses, budgets, and related data. Any error in any of the above could have a substantial impact on the Report and any conclusions stated therein. Accordingly, if any such errors are subsequently made known to CBRE, CBRE reserves the right to amend the Report, which may include the conclusions of the Report. The client and intended user should carefully review all assumptions, data, relevant calculations, and conclusions of the Report and should immediately notify CBRE of any questions or errors within 30 days after the date of delivery of the Report. 4. CBRE assumes no responsibility (including any obligation to procure the same) for any documents, data or information not provided to CBRE, including, without limitation, any termite inspection, survey or occupancy permit. 5. All furnishings, equipment and business operations have been disregarded with only real property being considered in the Report, except as otherwise expressly stated and typically considered part of real property. 6. Any cash flows included in the analysis are forecasts of estimated future operating characteristics based upon the information and assumptions contained within the Report. Any projections of income, expenses and economic conditions utilized in the Report, including such cash flows, should be considered as only estimates of the expectations of future income and expenses as of the date of the Report and not predictions of the future. This Report has been prepared in good faith, based on CBRE's current anecdotal and evidence-based views of the commercial real estate market. Although CBRE believes its views reflect market conditions on the date of this Report, they are subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond CBRE's control. In addition, many of CBRE's views are opinion and/or projections based on CBRE's subjective analyses of current market circumstances. Actual results are affected by a number of factors outside the control of CBRE, including without limitation fluctuating economic, market, and property conditions. Actual results may ultimately differ from these projections, and CBRE does not warrant any such projections. Further, other firms may have different opinions, projections and analyses, and actual market conditions in the future may cause CBRE's current views to later change or be incorrect. CBRE has no obligation to update its views herein if its opinions, projections, analyses or market circumstances later change. 7. The Report contains professional opinions and is expressly not intended to serve as any warranty, assurance or guarantee of any particular value of the subject property. Other appraisers may reach different conclusions as to the value of the subject property. Furthermore, market value is highly related to exposure time, promotion effort, terms, motivation, and conclusions surrounding the offering of the subject property. The Report is for the sole purpose of providing the intended user with CBRE’s independent professional opinion of the value of the subject property as of the date of the Report. Accordingly, CBRE shall not be liable for any losses that arise from any investment or lending decisions based upon the Report that the client, intended user, or any buyer, seller, investor, or lending institution may undertake related to the subject property, and CBRE has not been compensated to assume any of these risks. Nothing contained in the Report shall be construed as any direct or indirect recommendation of CBRE to buy, sell, hold, or finance the subject property. 8. No opinion is expressed on matters which may require legal expertise or specialized investigation or knowledge including, but not limited to, environmental, social, and governance principles (“ESG”), beyond that customarily employed by real estate appraisers. Any user of the Report is advised to retain experts in areas that fall outside the scope of the real estate appraisal profession for such matters. 9. CBRE assumes no responsibility for any costs or consequences arising due to the need, or the lack of need, for flood hazard insurance. An agent for the Federal Flood Insurance Program should be contacted to determine the actual need for Flood Hazard Insurance. ATTACHMENT 3   Item 9.1       Packet pg. 261/358 10. Acceptance or use of the Report constitutes full acceptance of these Assumptions and Limiting Conditions and any special assumptions set forth in the Report. It is the responsibility of the user of the Report to read in full, comprehend and thus become aware of all such assumptions and limiting conditions. CBRE assumes no responsibility for any situation arising out of the user’s failure to become familiar with and understand the same. 11. The Report applies to the property as a whole only, and any pro ration or division of the title into fractional interests will invalidate such conclusions, unless the Report expressly assumes such pro ration or division of interests. 12. The allocations of the total value estimate in the Report between land and improvements apply only to the existing use of the subject property. The allocations of values for each of the land and improvements are not intended to be used with any other property or appraisal and are not valid for any such use. 13. The maps, plats, sketches, graphs, photographs, and exhibits included in this Report are for illustration purposes only and shall be utilized only to assist in visualizing matters discussed in the Report. No such items shall be removed, reproduced, or used apart from the Report. 14. The Report shall not be duplicated or provided to any unintended users in whole or in part without the written consent of CBRE, which consent CBRE may withhold in its sole discretion. Exempt from this restriction is duplication for the internal use of the intended user and its attorneys, accountants, or advisors for the sole benefit of the intended user. Also exempt from this restriction is transmission of the Report pursuant to any requirement of any court, governmental authority, or regulatory agency having jurisdiction over the intended user, provided that the Report and its contents shall not be published, in whole or in part, in any public document without the written consent of CBRE, which consent CBRE may withhold in its sole discretion. Finally, the Report shall not be made available to the public or otherwise used in any offering of the property or any security, as defined by applicable law. Any unintended user who may possess the Report is advised that it shall not rely upon the Report or its conclusions and that it should rely on its own appraisers, advisors and other consultants for any decision in connection with the subject property. CBRE shall have no liability or responsibility to any such unintended user.

The assemblage sold for a total price of $13,350,000. There were two purchase and sale agreements associated with the purchase, one for $850,000 representing a single parcel and the second for $12,500,000 representing four parcels. The Highland Sports Center property was brought to market June 2020 by Marty Rood from Mr. 99 and Associates. The property was originally listed for $15,095,000 (based upon improvement value), and received four offers, three of which were from developers. The offers received were over and under the asking price. The buyer's offer was selected due to the buyer's reputation, and the certainty of closing. The Chih Pu Tsai property was not openly marketed, however the seller was represented by Todd Young of Windermere Midtown. According to the seller's agent, the seller had learned that the Highland Sports Center was under contract and asked their agent to contact the developer to sell their property. The price was negotiated between both parties. Our discussions with the buyer, and seller's representatives indicate that this is an arms-length transaction and neither party is under distress. The buyer intends to demolish the existing improvements in January 2023 and redevelop the site with two 6-story mid-rise apartment buildings which include on level of above-grade parking garage and one-level of below-grade parking and a total of 385-units. The larger site closed on October 21, 2022 for $12,500,000 while the remaining (smaller) site closed in January 2023. The total purchase price is $13,350,000 or $84.39 per square foot of land area, or $34,675 per unit.

The buyer plans to continue to operate their business at this location, however the value was in the land and no additional value was given to the office building. Although this was a direct deal with the former tenant, the sale was arm's length and generally at market pricing.

It is rectangularly shaped with generally moderately sloping topography, and the property sits several feet above the NE 145th Street frontage. It is zoned R- 48 by the city of Shoreline, a multifamily residential zone permitting a maximum density of 48 dwelling units per acre and base building heights of 35 feet. The property is improved with an older, boarded-up single-family residence that is not considered contributory to value. According to the listing broker, due to site and access constraints, the property is expected to yield five to six townhome units--a density of 25 units per acre at five units. The broker stated that the property was previously under contract, but the transaction fell through due to an overseas seller and issues with title which have since been resolved. The asking price was reduced to $550,000 in late May of 2023. The property went under contract pending feasibility on June 24, 2023, with a 30-day feasibility period and closing expected thereafter. The listing broker stated that the buyer intends to pursue development of five townhomes. The sale closed in August 2023 for $548,000, or about $110,000 per unit at five units ($62 per square foot).

The property is rectangular in shape, with mostly level topography and an area of sloping topography at the east. It is zoned RM2.4 by the City of Edmonds, a multifamily residential zone permitting a density of one dwelling unit per 2,400 site square feet (about 18 units per acre) and building heights of 25 feet. The property is part of the Arbor Villa condo development and is subject to CC&Rs. It is accessed through the condo development via an access and utilities easement. The listing broker stated that development would likely require release from the CC&Rs and stated that pushback from the condo association is expected (and had occurred in past attempts to develop). Nonetheless, the buyer reportedly intends to pursue development of four units on the property (either townhomes or a fourplex), and the sale price is said to reflect the challenges ahead. The property sold on June 20, 2023, for $300,000, or $75,000 per potential unit and $29.94 per square foot.

The property is somewhat narrowly (60-foot-deep) rectangular in shape and has moderately sloping topography from north to south. It is split-zone, with the northern roughly 35% zoned R-48 and the remainder zoned MB (mixed business). The R-48 is a multifamily residential zone permitting 48 dwelling units per acre and building heights of 30 feet; the MB zone is a mixed-use use zone permitting heights up 70 feet with no expressed density limits. However, per SMC 20.50.020.D.1, the boundary line between the zone is treated as a lot line, and setbacks are enforced from the boundary. According to discussions with Shoreline planning personnel, after the sale, the buyer conducted pre-application meetings regarding the development of a 25-unit mixed-use structure on the MB-zoned portion and a duplex on the R-48-zoned area--with the required setbacks from the zone boundary line impacting potential development. The property sold on June 1, 2022, for $524,700, or $51.42 per square foot ($20,988 per unit at the proposed 25 units).

BUDGET: Total Dollar Amount:500,000.00 ☐ Approved in Budget Fund(s):423 ☒ Budget Reallocation Required ☐ No Budget Impact PROBLEM/ISSUE STATEMENT: The Waste Water Treatement Department would like to use Jacobs Solutions Inc. to perform a variety of necessary projects for the benefit of the Edmonds Waste Water Treatment Plant. CONTEXT, ANALYSIS, & ALTERNATIVES: Context: Due to the intimate knowledge Jacobs Solutions Inc. has with the Waste Water Treatment Plant, their expertise in providing a number of key services that would benefit the plant, and their ability to scale as needed for completing work, it would be beneficial to have them provide several regulatory and data management services. Analysis: The completion of the SOP Plan, an Existing Condition Scan, and Process Improvement Plans would greatly benefit all existing and future plant projects. Alternatives: None; Request the use of Sole Source Justification as it would take a considerable investment of time and effort for another consultant to gain the knowledge that Jacobs Solutions Inc. has in regards to the work needed. RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that Council approve this allocation due to the information given in the section “Context, Analysis and Alternatives”. BUDGET IMPACTS: Request the allocation and budget amendment of $500,000.00. This line item is not in the budget currently.

A sole source purchase means that a single vendor is uniquely qualified to meet the purchasing/procurement objective and therefore the purchase/procurement is exempt from the bidding process. Date: January 20, 2026 Contract Amount: $500,000.00 Department: WWTP Requestor: Tirrell Brown Description of Purchase/Service: Services for various in-house projects for the purpose of improving plant redundancy, processes, and knowledge of systems. Vendor Name: Jacobs Solutions Inc. Address: 1100 112th Ave NE, Suite 500 City, State, Zip Code:Bellevue, WA 98004 Phone Number: 425-453-5000 Contact:Name: Micheal Reimbold Title: Manager of Projects Phone: 425-453-5000 Fax: _______________ E-mail: Micheal.Reimbold@jacobs.com Please check appropriate box Research has determined that equipment or service is necessary and available from only one vendor. Item specifically required by grant or contract provisions. Government mandated services. Emergency purchase, repair services or parts replacement. Only compatible with existing system or equipment. Other – Please explain   Item 10.1       Packet pg. 343/358 2 EXPLANATION City staff have diligently sourced engineering consultant services to assist City staff with Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) projects that will improve plant processes and redundancy. Jacobs Solutions Inc. is the chosen Consultant because it is uniquely able to provide these services. Jacobs Solutions’ representatives have invested years in familiarizing themselves with the assets of the WWTP and the plant’s operating capabilities and limitations. This extensive knowledge of the existing WWTP conditions serves as an invaluable foundation for recommending and implementing key projects that would benefit the plant immensely. Jacobs Solutions has previously assisted the City with the completion of several key projects, including a criticality study, which has assisted in guiding plant investment priorities. City staff believe that it would take another consultant years to accumulate the amount of knowledge and understanding that Jacobs Solutions has already acquired by virtue of being a part of several important projects in the past 5 years. CERTIFICATION: I am aware of the City’s requirements for competitive bidding and the established criteria for justification for sole source/sole brand purchasing. As an approved department designee, I have gathered the required information and have made a concerted effort to review comparable/equipment or services. This effort is documented in this justification. I hereby certify as to the validity of the information and feel confident that this justification for sole source, sole brand procurement meets the City’s criteria and will withstand an audit of the State Auditor’s Office or a vendor protest.
