Councilmember Goetz stated..,that several Councilmembers had visited Sunset Ave. and had seen first- hand the things about which the residents were complaining. She read aloud a letter from Council - member Naughten in which he.suggested that a task force be formed to study the.problem. Mayor Harrison stated that rigtd'enforcement of the laws.was.being implemented and that some previous plans were being studied -for -changing -the parking configuration on Sunset.

Councilmember Jaech reported that.the interest rates for-the.two new.LIDs will be 13% - 13.5%, and the Finance Committee recommended that the people affected be advised.that it would behoove them to pay their assessments if they can in order to avoid:the.high interest.rates.

Councilmember Kasper observed -that the Council wil.l..have to address the situation of the Police force's being reduced by di.sability, and that a solution should be sought. Councilmember Nordquist again asked if a waiver had -been applied for, regarding secondary sewage treatment, noting that there -will be no federal assistance and it.will be costly for the City if a waiver is not obtained. Councilmember Nordquist asked -the City Attorney .for clarification of Section 15.05 of the Code regarding disposition of property and whether the Hearing Examiner will have to rule on each disposition.

Several-Councilmembers had interviewed Mr. Stone the previous evening. Councilmember Goetz thought she should..abstain from voting since,she°had not met him. Councilmembers Jaech and Naughten said they.had not met him either, but City Attorney Wayne Tanaka advised that it would take five affirmative votes-to.conffrm the appointment. .Councilmember Nordquist reported on the interview, saying Mr. Stone had handled all of the Councilmembers' questions very well. He thought Mr. Stone was an excell'ent,candidate.for the position. Councilmember Gould agreed. Council - member Goetz then said she would go on the words ­of the Councilmembers who had interviewed Mr. Stone, and that she had seen his resume. COUNCILMEMBER ALLEN MOVED, SECONDED BY COUNCILMEMBER NORDQUIST, TO CONFIRM THE MAYOR'S APPOINTMENT OF JEREMIAH STONE TO,THE POSITION OF.MAYOR'S ADMIN- ISTRATIVE ASSISTANT. MOTION CARRIED. COUNCILMEMBER ALLEN THEN MOVED.,.SECONDED BY COUNCILMEMBER NORDQUIST, TO DIRECT THE CITY ATTORNEY TO DRAFT AN ORDINANCE ESTABLISHING THE M.A.A.'S SALARY AT $3,039 PER MONTH. MOTION CARRIED. Councilmember Allen suggested that the City pay some of Mr. Stone's moving expenses. Councilmembers Nordquist and Naughten.will investigate the..costs of moving and make a recommendation. AUDIENCE Norm Nelson, 15729.75th P1. W., adjacent to the County.park property, said that park is unsupervised and at night the people using it are noisy, are drinking,. -and theytrash the area. He asked if the City could use.its influence with the County to have the park closed at night and if parking could be restricted after 10:00 p.m. He said the people were partying in the street in front of his home • from 2:00 to 3:00 a.m. the previous night. Councilmember.Nordqu.ist responded that the City could write a letter to the Sheriff -and -the --County Council. Councilmember Gould suggested that the City tell the County what Edmonds intends doing and make recommendations as to what the County should do. Police Chief Marlo Foster will.submit a recommendation next week. Edith Wicker, 386 Sunset Ave., objected to the cruising and related problems on Sunset Ave. and again asked.that parking be restricted after 6:00 p.m. Dave Crow, 348 Sunset Ave., suggested that since the Council had.rejected the residents' request to close Sunset Ave. after 6:00 p.m., that it be closed at 8:00 p.m. just as Brackett's Landing and the Union Oil Beach are. He thought a'comm.ittee could then work on .the problem for next summer. Councilmember Gould said.he had gone down to Sunset several times to study -.the situation, and the residents there have a legitimate complaint.' He 'did not believe the police could solve the problem. He thought both Sunset and 2nd Ave. should be .closed to parking, beginning at 8:00 p.m., and that Ocean Ave. should be included also so the people don't just move over...there. He added that he thought this should be year around, not.just in.the summer. Councilmember Naughten commented that the problem is expensive .to.patrol and it is not being controlled, and he agreedthat the parking should be restricted after. 8:00 p.m. Councilmember Allen thought if that were done then Union Oil Beach should be opened until.10:00 p.m. inasmuch as par,kin'g is limited in number there and.'it would provide some place for them to go. Councilmember Nordquist.d,itsagreed, saying there is only one entrance and it is diffi- cult to get help in there if needed. Police Chief Marlo Foster said there are only 24 parking spaces at the, -Union Oil Beach and the -people have to getout of their cars to enjoy the view. Also, they now have a security officer down there, so he did not think the problems would get as bad there as they formerly did. For cons:istency,.he thought the.8:00 p.m. time would be good for all of them, but he said opening the Union Oi.l: Beach until 10:00 p.m..would..not.be'the problem it was several years ago. Councilmember Gould -said -he -would eliminate 2nd.Ave. from his proposal. COUNCIL'MEMBER GOULD THEN MOVED, SECONDED BY COUNCILMEMBER NAUGHTEN, THAT.THE.CITY ATTORNEY BE INSTRUCTED TO DRAFT THE NECESSARY ORDINANCE TO ESTABLISH.A.NO PARKrNG TIME.FOR.SUNSET AVE. AT 8:00 P.M. AND ALSO FOR OCEAN AVE. (Union Oil Beach to remain with an 8:00 p.m..closing.) Councilmember Gould thought the r� U 307 • August 18, 1981 - continued word would get around that':they all close at the same,time, and.his intent was to leave it that way the year around. He thought if --there were no audience (of..people in parked cars.) then the cruising would diminish. Counci*lmember`Jaech agreed, saying she had gone down there many evenings to observe and they are there to be seen,'and if no one is,there to see them they will go away. THE MOTION CARRIED. Richard Lindros, 7715 220th.S.W., wished to speak about:the representatives to the SNOCOM Board and the Medic 7 Board. He said that in April the two representatives were dismissed and the Mayor and Councilmember Allen were appointed in their places.but.Ahat the attendance of these elected officials had been poor so the City wasbeing short-changed by.not.being represented and.by not utilizing the police and medic system knowledge of the former representatives. Mayor Harrison responded that the two members Mr. Lindros was speaking of serve on the'Technical Advisory Committee which -is appropriate for the staff members, and he thought it appropriate that the elected officials serve on the Board of Directors.. Councilmember'Al en added that interagency boards are usually made up of elected officials, and they have technical advisory boards that are made up of the technical people. Mr. Lindros then asked that the elected officials have better attendance. Mayor Harrison said he thought he had only missed one meeting but that he would welcome help from the Council as backup. Councilmember Naughten volunteered to attend. HEARING FOR CHANGE TO AN:'APPROVED PRD (PRD-3-79/BELT HOMES) Planning Director Mary Lou -:Block stated that the original. approval of this PRD..was given March 3, 1980, with a plan for seven -lots. Since that time the.ownership has changed and -the -new owner, Tom Belt, wishes to change the configuration, reducing the number of lots by one and.changing the configura- tion of the interior roadway.. Mr. Bela found it difficult to locate the homes as first proposed and the new configuration will provide larger lots on which it should be easier to site the homes. The • ADB had reviewed the proposal, as well as the Hearing.:Examiner. The Hearing Examiner had recommended approval, with certain conditions. His report had been provided to the Council. The conditions he recommended were: (1) There should -be total compliance with all engineering -requirements outlined in Exhibit B'to.his report. (2) Prior to final'approval the applicant is -to provide a,:tree-cutting plan and a replanting plan which are to be approved.by the City of Edmonds. The -replanting plan shall address the perimeter setbacks on Lot 1 and the slope stress on Lots 2 and 3.. (3) The houses on Lots 2 and 3 shall be designed to meet the characteristics of the terrain of those lots. .(4) There shall be no clearing in the -perimeter setbacks or in the .open space of the proposed PRD. In addition to those conditions, the Staff recommendedone more because of concerns that had been expressed to them about 71st Ave. W. That recommendation was -that the owner agree to participate in any future LI.D for improvement of 71st Ave.'W. That is the street onto which the cul-de-sac of this PRD will"access. The hearing was opened. Tom Belt, the.appl.icant;.saidhe did not think he could -speak for future owners`but.while he was the owner he would be willing to:participate in an LID to:improve.-71st Ave.'W. He was told that•a covenant could: be recorded to.bind future owners. No.one else wished to speak, and the hearing was closed.. COUNCILMEMBER ALLEN MOVED, SECONDED BY COUNCILMEMBER GOETZ, TO APPROVE THE CHANGE TO PRD-3- 79, SUBJECT TO THE FOUR CONDITIONS STATED BY THE HEARING EXAMINER AND THE ONE ADDITIONAL CONDTION STATED BY THE STAFF REGARDING PARTICIPATION IN A FUTURE LID. MOTION CARRIED. REVIEW OPEN.SPACE CONSIDERATION OF CITY -OWNED PROPERTY IN MEADOWDALE AREA (REQUEST OF BILL JOHNSON) City Engineer Jim Adams reported that the appraisalofthe property, as well as the assessed valuation, was $20,000. This was in response to a question asked when this was last discussed. Mr. Johnson stated that his offer of $3,000,.the.amount the City.paid-for the property, was. an offer from him personally but that he.would be asking.others in the_area to.partici.pate in it. Councilmember Naughten.saw no reason to,sell the property if the Council.was going to declare`it open space.. • Councilmember Nordquist referred 'to sections. in the, Policy Plan which he said supported this request. He sai d. he would Ti ke .to see At .retained and placed in open .space because it would .be. an advantage to that.particular community,.but he would rather not sell it. Councilmember-Jaech said that if the Council decided to sell the property they had an obligation to sell it at its full- value, and if -they declared it open space that would not guarantee it would stay in open space. City Attorney Wayne Tanaka said the Council could rezone it to OS, but any subsequent Council could rezone it again, if the rezone criteria.were met; and as far as entering some sort of agreement. to keep it in open space, they could do that for a reasonable period of time, but. -not forever, as they could not bind future Councils to a great extent. Mr. Johnson stated.that Meadowdale Beach Rd. is the only east/west.thorou,ghfare in that area, and.he thought it could become another arterial like 196th,or Olympic View Dr. He compared.this piece of 'property -to the Maplewood Park -adjacent to 196th, but on a smaller scale, and said this would be good use of the citizens' money, keeping those properties in open space. He thought it would have value as an amenity to. the people who live there and it woul,d.also.have value to .those people who use it as an arterial. He -:again -stated -that he.was willing to,pay what the City paid for it, with an ironclad agreement that:it be kept in open,space... He also suggested altern6ta,ves�.of.1easing the property to -him or selling"him the. development rights --anything that would assure that it would be kept in open space. As to development of the lot, he said it would take a.major excavation to get access into this lot, and he.said there are springs on it and water runs there the year around. He thought that even to put one house on it would be detrimental. Jan Van Niel, 4404 222nd St., Mountlake Terrace.,. representative of the Pilchuck Audubon Society, commended the City on maintaining sensitive habitats. He said this area is.heavily forested and the condition of the ground and the underbrush provides protection to the wildlife. He supported the proposal. Ray Martin, 18704 94th Ave..W`.,.speaking'on behalf.of=the,Edmonds Council of Concerned Citizens, supported the proposal. He"read;several sections of :the Community Development Code which he said • supported the proposal. He could not find anything.zoned OS in the City and he said it is the August 18, 1981 - continued • responsibility of the City to.provide some. He warned that.if the City did not capture such areas as this foropen space, then in the future there will be regrets, and he noted that the property will. do nothing but increase -in value. Councilmember Gould commented that -.he thought the City owed a debt of gratitude to people like Bill Johnson and 'Ray Martin who speak -out on issues such as this. He thought that at this point the City should retain ownership of the property and rezone it to OS,, and keep it that way. Councilmember Allen reminded the Council that-they'had denied a rezone to OS on .this property recently, and she suggested it.be removed from the:inventory list of property.for sale.- COUNCILMEMBER NORDQUIST MOVED, SECONDED BY COUNCILMEMBER.GOETZ, THAT BASED ON THE.CHALLENGE.OF THE LAND USE PORTION OF THE COMPREHENSIVE. POLICY PLAN OF THE CITY OF EDMONDS, AND BASED ON CHAPTER 200 (ENVIRONMENT) OF THE POLICY PLAN, THAT THE SUBJECT PROPERTY -BE -PLACED IN THE OPEN SPACE�CATEGORY AND BE REMOVED FROM THE LIST OF PROPERTY SUGGESTED FOR SALE, AND THAT THE PROPOSAL BE SENT BACK TO THE PLANNING ADVISORY BOARD FOR HEARING'ON CONSIDERATION.OF PLACING IT IN OPEN SPACE: MOTION CARRIED, WITH COUNCILMEMBER ALLEN VOTING NO. A short recess was announced. DISCUSSION OF ADB - SUGGESTIONS*.REGARDING`ADB THAT REQUIRE -ORDINANCE CHANGES At the July 21, 1981 City Council meeting a summary of comments from the ADB was presented, and the Council requested that those items which would require change by ordinance be brought to them for discussion. Planning Director Mary Lou Block had provided a.review of those for the Council, and she said that basically none of the ideas for changes that would require ordinance changes were favored by the ADB. They did not feel the make-up of the board should be changed. They would like a Council member in attendance at`their meetings. They would like routine sign applications to be reviewed and approved by the Staff --that would require an'ordinance.change. This would involve routine signs that meet all Code requirements: They currently go on the ADB's Consent Agenda but a time delay for the applicant is caused: The review of large projects had needed some improvement, and the Staff now mails a special packet of information to the members on all.major projects, two • weeks earlier than the regular packet, so they have additional time to study them. There had been a suggestion that they hold two meetings -a month because of.the major projects, but they did not favor that. COUNCILMEMBER ALLEN MOVED, SECONDED BY COUNCILMEMBER GOETZ-, THAT THE CITY ATTORNEY BE INSTRUCTED TO PREPARE AN ORDINANCE ALLOWING STAFF REVIEW AND APPROVAL OF ROUTINE'SIGNS. MOTION CARRIED. Councilmember Naughten observed that only one real change had come out of the several discussions, and Ms. Block agreed but said just having the discussions and.the interchange between the Council and the ADB had been very beneficial. APPOINTMENT OF PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR AND CITY ENGINEER Councilmember Allen stated that the had been some second thoughts on the part of the Council. COUNCILMEMBER ALLEN MOVED., SECONDED, FOR DISCUSSION BY COUNCILMEMBER NORDQUIST, TO RESCIND THE RECENT ACTION TAKEN BY THE COUNCIL TO RESTRUCTURE THE PUBLIC WORKS.DEPARTMENT. Councilmember Gould suggested the new proposal by the Mayor be.examined before they rescinded the last one. Mayor Harrison said the alternate proposal was to go-back.,to a split department,:wherein the Engineering Department will be separate from the Public Works Department, each reporting directly to the Mayor, with the same framework of personnel as that in.the .recently approved proposal. An engineering degree would not be required for the Public Works Director. Mayor Harrison said there was a general consensus of the Council that it may work better than in a combined department. Councilmember Goetz asked whether the Mayor would be available daily so the two department heads wou.ld.have someone to report to or consult, and Mayor Harrison said..he is always available daily, in his office from 10:00 to 12:00 a.m. and available by telephone -at all -times. Councilmember Naughten said he had been absent last week and therefore.was not at the Executive Session where this had been discussed, so he was unable to discuss or vote on the motion. Councilmember Allen then .asked permission of the Second to withdraw the motion, and it was granted. THE MOTION AND SECOND ON THE FLOOR WERE WITHDRAWN. Councilmember Allen then called -for an Executive Session.at this time regarding the appointment of the Public Works Director and City.Engi.neer. The Council.recessed to Executive Session. When the meeting reconvened the Mayor stated that there was some feeling amongst the Council that a reorgani- • zation of the Public Works Department was in order; therefore, he.thought it would be appropriate for him to withdraw his proposed appointment of Jim.Adams to the position of Public Works Director and City Engineer. COUNCILMEMBER ALLEN THEN MOVED AGAIN,:SECONDED.BY COUNCILMEMBER NORDQUIST, TO RESCIND THE PREVIOUS ACTION OF THE COUNCIL IN REGARD TO.THE STRUCTURE -OF THE PUBLIC WORKS DEPART- MENT. MOTION.CARRIED. COUNCILMEMBER ALLEN THEN MOVED, SECONDED BY COUNCILMEMBER NORDQUIST, THAT THE PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT BE RESTRUCTURED'AS A CITY ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT AND A PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT. It was noted that a new organization chart woul_d.be necessary and should be available. at the next meeting, and that'the total employee count would.be the same as that of the rescinded organization structure. Councilmember Goetz stated that.the 'Public Works/Community Development Committee had felt the leadership of the department should bean engineer with administrative abili,ties,.so she would vote against the motion. THE MOTION,CARRIED, WITH.COUNCILMEMBER GOETZ VOTING NO. COUNCILMEMBER ALLEN THEN MOVED THAT THE PUBLIC:WORKS DIRECTOR NO LONGER BEIREQUIRED TO HAVE AN ENGINEERING DEGREE. MOTION TAILED FOR LACK OF A SECOND.,' REVIEW.STATUS.OF SPACE NEEDS STUDY Planning.Director Mary Lou Block...noted.that when' the draft-of.the Space.Needs Study was presented at the May 5, 1981 City Council meeting..a,r.equest was made that..the.report be reviewed and any sug- gestions be submitted to the Staff.-To.date, the only written. comments received were -in regard to historical or existing data. She -suggested that it would be.appr.opriate to discuss the alternatives available and decide which direction should be pursued, especially as a decision should be made soon as to which uses will move into the old library.building.so the.Staff can begin preparing cost estimates .for the interior remodeling of. that building.. .:She. thought the' Community .Development/.. Pub.l.i.c Works Committee -could. wo.rk;With .the Staff .to come, up.with recommendations to address at the retreat, or the Staff'could do it alone. Mayor Harrison-said'he"thought the Council should be moved to the top of the new library building so the Police Department could use the Council Chambers area and install a counter so the public can see the police more.. This will be discussed further -at the retreat. LJ • August 18, 1981 - continued COUNCIL Councilmembers Allen and Gouldsaid they would not.be..presen,t at the August 25, 1981 meeting. Council President Allen noted.that:Bob Pantley is meeting.with the Port Commission at their August 27, 1981..meeti.ng, at 11:00 a_..m., to.present a proposal.to them regarding the parking lot, and she suggested some Councilmembers-attend.: City Attorney.Wayne: Tanaka cautioned that not more than three should attend.. Council President Allen referred.to a letter from Genera l Tele,phone explaining. their request to the Washington Utilities and Transportation Commission for,.a substantial rate increase. She proposed writing to the -Commission on the part of the Counci.l,.objecting to the amount of increase. Council - member Gould suggested that before writing, the Council should.:invite the General Telephone repre- sentative to make a presentation to the Council. He.suggested this be done at the September 8, 1981 meeting. Councilmember Naughten requested..a report, next week if possible, regarding the recent scuba diving fatality at.the Underwater Park. Councilmember Jaech noted that a.request had been received.fr.om Russell Berg that the City again pay their. $11,110 insurance premium and that the Council.:had stated last,year that they probably would not be continuing that this year... She thought Mr. Berg should be -apprised of that. 'The'Council was not yet ready to make a decisionon that. There was no further business to come before the Council, and the meeting adjourned at 10:20 p.m. IRENE VARNEY MORAN, Cit Clerk HARVE H.
