RESOLUTION NO. 1225 – URGING THE U.S. DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE TO SELECT THE BOEING COMPANY TO BUILD THE NEXT MID-AIR REFUELING TANKER. ITEM G: FUNDING REQUEST FOR EDMONDS NIGHT OUT. Councilmember Plunkett explained Edmonds Night Out was not funded last year. This year Police Chief Compaan has requested funding in the amount of $3500. Councilmember Plunkett did not support funding the event in light of the City’s budget situation. Councilmember Buckshnis explained the expenditures may be less than $3500 if requests for food and beverage donations are successful. COUNCILMEMBER WILSON MOVED, SECONDED BY COUNCILMEMBER FRALEY- MONILLAS, TO APPROVE ITEM G. Council President Bernheim asked what portion of the $3500 was for Police Officers to attend the event. Councilmember Fraley-Monillas explained the request was to authorize up to $1500 for officers to attend because there is insufficient regular on-duty staff to attend Night Out, as well as to be available for 911 calls. She commented Night Out was an important event that involved citizens and families and the funding request was a minor expense in the overall scheme of things. Assistant Police Chief Gerry Gannon explained approximately 3,000 people have attended Edmonds Night Out in the past. He explained Night Out provides an opportunity for people to see communications provided by SNOCOM and talk with Police Officers, the Dive Team, and the K-9 team as well as other organizations. Councilmember Wilson agreed with Councilmember Fraley-Monillas’ comments regarding the importance of this event, pointing out Night Out was a very family oriented event and attracted families who may not attend other community events. He inquired about the Police Department’s 2009 budget. Packet Page 5 of 409 Edmonds City Council Draft Minutes March 23, 2010 Page 3 Assistant Chief Gannon advised the Police Department was approximately $130,000 - $140,000 under budget in 2009 due to salary savings in two positions. Councilmember Wilson commented $3500 was an appropriate contribution in recognition of that savings. Councilmember Buckshnis commented Officer Debbie Dawson attends the Dog Park’s Halloween Howl and provides an opportunity for the community to positively engage with the Police Department. MOTION CARRIED (5-2), COUNCILMEMBERS PLUNKETT AND ORVIS VOTING NO. Assistant Chief Gannon invited the Council to assist the Police Chief and Assistant Chiefs with barbequing at Edmonds Night Out. 3. UPDATE AND OVERVIEW OF SNOCOM. Debbie Grady, Director, SNOCOM, explained SNOCOM is the 911 communication center that serves Edmonds residents and public safety employees. SNOCOM was established in 1971, it was the first consolidated 911 center in Snohomish County, and it is currently located in Mountlake Terrace. Member agencies include Brier, Edmonds, Mill Creek, Mountlake Terrace, Mukilteo, Lynnwood and Woodway; Fire District 1 is a contract agency. SNOCOM is governed via an Interlocal Agreement that establishes governance and funding. She provided a SNOCOM organizational chart, pointing out the 10-member Board of Directors has representatives from each member agency. Mayor Haakenson currently serves as the Chair and Police Chief Compaan is a voting Board Member. She explained SNOCOM’s assessment formula is calculated 54% for dispatchable calls for service, 23% assessed value and 23% population. She explained the two communication centers in Snohomish County, SNOCOM and SNOPAC share the local 911 excise tax dollars; the division of those funds is based on call volume and SNOCOM currently receives 24%. She commented on pending legislation to increase the 911 excise tax by $0.25. Ms. Grady described the workflow when a person called 911 from a landline, cell phone or VoIP. Calls are answered by 911 dispatchers who determine whether to dispatch fire, police or both. She reviewed next generation 911 calls including video, text, telematics (i.e. OnStar), and email. SNOCOM also enters information regarding stolen vehicle and missing persons into nationwide databases, as well as warrants, restraining orders and court-initiated paperwork for its user agencies. SNOCOM’s total call volume in 2009 was approximately 256,000 calls; of those approximately 170,000 were 911 calls and of those, approximately 122,000 were calls for service where police or fire were dispatched and approximately 52,000 were traffic stops generated by officers in the fields. SNOCOM handles approximately 500 calls per day. She reviewed a chart illustrating a decrease of 2% in police incidents, a consistent rate of fire incidents and a 9% increase in traffic stops 2008 to 2009 and an overall increase growth of 30% between 2004 and 2009. Ms. Grady displayed a SNOCOM personnel organizational chart of the nine administrative staff personnel and 32 dispatch employees; they are budgeted for 35 dispatch employees based on current call volume. SNOCOM is currently approximately 90% staffed; however, due to employees in training, actual staffing is approximately 76%. She provided a humorous recording played on the Jay Leno Show of a child calling 911 for help with homework. She explained this illustrated a 911 dispatcher could expect to handle a variety of calls during a shift. She described SNOCOM personnel as dedicated, conscientious professionals who provide communication service 24/7, who are ambassadors of the agencies they serve, and who receive approximately a year of training. Technology has changed the complexity of dispatchers’ jobs and not everyone can do this job. Packet Page 6 of 409 Edmonds City Council Draft Minutes March 23, 2010 Page 4 SNOCOM’s adopted 2010 budget is approximately $4.4 million with funding from 911 excise tax, VRMs and assessments. The 2010 budget had two separate assessments, one for the SNOCOM operating budget and one for New World project. There are no new positions or new project expenditures in the 2010 budget and the administrative staff was reorganized to improve efficiency. She provided SNOCOM’s 2010 goals with regard to personnel, training and projects. She highlighted the Community Notification system, a reverse 911 system used to notify residents in the event of an emergency. Terry Peterson, Information Systems Manager, SNOCOM, described the New World System, a county-wide single database for dispatch, records, corrections, fire and mobile in which 52+ agencies within Snohomish County will participate. From RFP to implementation, the New World System will be a 4-5 year project. He explained the existing configuration has limited interface between police, fire and the correction records management system, making it difficult to track crimes outside a jurisdiction. The New World System will be a single county-wide database into which dispatch, records, corrections, fire and mobile will enter and retrieve information. The New World System will replace aging public safety communications equipment including Computer Aided Dispatch (CAD), Records Management System (RMS), and Corrections Management System (CMS) and add Automated Field Reporting (AFR) and Automatic Vehicle Location (AVL). AFR will make a police vehicle a mobile office, allowing an officer to start, finish, upload and complete all reporting from their vehicle. AVL is similar to GPS and allows the dispatch center to recommend and dispatch the unit closest to the incident. The total system cost of the New World system is approximately $8 million, SNOCOM’s portion is approximately $2.7 million. He described the budgetary impact to SNOCOM and project funding via $1 million from SNOCOM’s CAD/RMS Reserve Balance and a loan for the remainder. He described implementation of the New World System, explaining the system is currently being configured, corrections will be live in January 2011 and CAD/RMS will be live in June 2011. Ms. Grady invited Councilmembers to visit SNOCOM and do a “sit-along” with a dispatcher. She also invited them to National Telecommunicators Week events April 11-17, SNOCOM’s picnic in August and the holiday open house in December. Councilmember Wilson commented he hears many exemplary comments about SNOCOM and SNOCOM is often referred to as an organization whose operations other organizations should aspire. Mayor Haakenson remarked in the 14 years he has been on the Council and as Mayor, this is the first time SNOCOM has ever made a presentation to the Council. 4. PUBLIC COMMENT ON THE SUBJECT OF BUDGET CUTS. Council President Bernheim explained this was an opportunity for the public to provide their ideas regarding budget cuts. The Council will be considering a tax increase later this year as well as continuing to identify cuts to the budget. As the cost of providing services increases and caps on tax increases take effect, the gap between the cost of services and available funds widens. Al Rutledge, Edmonds, suggested the Council identify cuts that have been made in the past. As an example, he pointed out the City Clerk’s office provides a person making a public records request a minimal number of pages at no charge and charges a fee for additional pages. He also cited the removal of the bird watching pier which used to attract numerous birdwatchers to the City. He suggested Police Packet Page 7 of 409 Edmonds City Council Draft Minutes March 23, 2010 Page 5 Department overtime also be considered, noting in the past it was less expensive to pay overtime than hire another officer. He suggested each Councilmember develop a list of budget cuts for public comment. Roger Hertrich, Edmonds, referred to the suggestions he made last week such as being conservative, employee furloughs, and not filling vacancies created by retirements. After making a public records request, he was surprised to see the volume of email between staff. He suggested a great deal of staff time was being wasted on email. Next, he pointed out in difficult times, personal budgets focused on essentials such as food and shelter and unnecessary expenditures were omitted. He expressed concern with the Council’s expenditure of $15,000 for the Cascade Conservancy, pointing the City could not afford to go green this year and any unnecessary expenditures should be eliminated. Councilmember Buckshnis read an email that posed the following questions: the cost of in-house versus using outside counsel, ways not to use consultants as much, and why the City was paying for Blackberry cell phone service for Fire District 1 administrative staff. Councilmember Wilson recalled one of the issues he raised last week was the potential unfunded pension and retiree health benefits. After speaking with Mayor Haakenson and Human Resources Director Debi Humann, he learned the City has a very limited liability, due primarily because several years ago the State took over the majority of retirement benefits. The City currently has liability for pension and health benefits for 39 retirees, 4 who draw a small pension ($3000/month total) and 35 law enforcement employees and firefighters for whom the city pays health benefits. These employees have rich benefits and often very costly healthcare, likely totaling $3 - $4 million, an unfunded amount. A study was done by an actuarial firm in 2004 who identified ongoing costs of approximately $380,000 annually. Although this is a very manageable amount, it may be appropriate to conduct another actuarial study to determine whether it was still necessary to transfer that amount. He estimated the cost of an actuarial study at approximately $10,000. Due to the need to identify alternate healthcare benefits for City employees, Councilmember Wilson suggested the City consider self insurance. He acknowledged the City was self-insured in the 1990s and had a bad experience. A number of local cities are self-insured and many companies with over 200 employees self-insure. His preliminary analysis indicates the City could realize a $1 million - $1.5 million savings via a self-insurance model. He recognized there were costs associated with self-insurance including stop loss coverage which the City did not have in the 1990s. Self-insurance would allow the City to maintain the same or better benefits for its employees at a reduced cost. He urged the group considering insurance alternatives to present options to the Council this summer prior to the budget process. 5. AUDIENCE COMMENTS Lora Petso, Edmonds, was disappointed in the lack of action on a PRD fix, pointing out although the issue had not been dropped, the flaws remained in place, allowing a new application to take advantage of those flaws. She was also disappointed with the new stormwater ordinance, pointing out the definition section contained new words including variance and exception. She did not support exceptions to drainage requirements and the associated litigation it could create. She expressed concern with allowing only the applicant to appeal the Public Works Director’s decision on an exception and not allowing the public to appeal a decision. She was also concerned with private ownership of stormwater facilities and suggested private ownership not be allowed in areas with historic storm drainage issues. She pointed out the importance of properly maintaining stormwater facilities and her preference that the City be responsible for maintenance rather than a private owner. She commented phrases in the code such as 100 year storm were replaced with flow control credits. She urged the Council to determine whether the proposed stormwater code increased or reduced stormwater regulations. To Councilmember Wilson’s Packet Page 8 of 409 Edmonds City Council Draft Minutes March 23, 2010 Page 6 suggestion, she offered to provide the name of a firm who could provide an actuarial analysis at a cost lower than he suggested. Ron Wambolt, Edmonds, recalled at last week’s Council meeting Mayor Haakenson reported the unions had expressed a desire to begin negotiations earlier than in the past because they wanted to recoup some of the compensation they gave up in 2009. He assumed this referred to compensation lost as a result of furloughs. He recommended in the upcoming labor negotiations the City strive to recoup some of the unjustified increases given for 2009; explaining that even after furloughs, individual employee compensation in 2009 was above 2008. Most taxpayers continue to experience compensation reductions that include furloughs and pay cuts. He recommended the City retain a person who specializes in labor negotiations. Even without the Fire Department, employee compensation accounts for more than 50% of total expenses and is growing faster than other expenses. The outlook for 2011 is compensation will grow by 6.7% compared to 2.8% for all other expenses. For 2012-2016 compensation is expected to grow twice as fast as other expenses. Natalie Shippen, Edmonds, recalled approximately two years ago the Council discussed obtaining an appraisal of the Skippers and old Safeway properties but no action was taken. She requested the Council obtain an appraisal of those two properties to allow a decision to be made in time to place a purchase measure on the November 2010 ballot. She suggested the property could be land banked and present and future residents allowed to develop their vision for the property. She recalled past ideas for the property included a maritime or art museum, or a cultural center. She commented the Council was lucky; few Councils had the opportunity to oversee and coordinate 40 acres of prime waterfront property. Roger Hertrich, Edmonds, noted his comments at last week’s meeting regarding the skybridge were accurately reflected in the minutes except “WSDOT future rails” should be “DOT future trails.” He commended staff’s presentation at last week’s meeting regarding use of the City’s right-of-way for bistro and outdoor dining. With regard to the proposal in the Six-Year Transportation Improvement Plan for a signal at 9th & Walnut, he reported it took 43 seconds at 5:30 p.m. to get through the intersection; most lights take 2 minutes. He expressed concern with trains on the double tracks blocking access to the ferry and suggested the City research acquiring the Unocal property and trading it for property in the Antique Mall. He endorsed Council President Bernheim’s suggestion for Councilmembers to hold visioning meetings in the community. Al Rutledge, Edmonds, reported the March 19 Hearing Examiner meeting was conducted very well. Next, he announced a Community Food Drive at Top Foods on March 31 and April 2-3 to benefit the local food bank. The public can also purchase and donate Easter bags for $5. The Food Bank served 416 people today. 6. REPORT FROM PLANNING DIVISION ON COMPREHENSIVE PLAN OUTLOOK FOR 2010- 2011. Planning Manager Rob Chave explained the Growth Management Act (GMA) was adopted in Washington in 1990. The City’s first Comprehensive Plan under GMA was adopted in 1995. The last major update was completed in 2004. Local jurisdictions are on a 7-year update cycle; Edmonds’ next update was due in 2011. The Legislature passed SSB-6611 extending the deadline to 2014 although Governor Gregoire has not yet signed the bill. He explained the purpose of updates are to assure compliance with GMA as well as maintain consistency with regional planning efforts. Updates also must address consistency between the Comprehensive Plan and development regulations. He reviewed a diagram illustrating the interaction between GMA goals and Packet Page 9 of 409 Edmonds City Council Draft Minutes March 23, 2010 Page 7 mandates, multi-county planning policies, county-wide planning policies, Puget Sound Regional Council (PSRC) Vision 2040/Regional Vision and local plans. With regard to regional planning, Mr. Chave explained Vision 2040 was adopted by PSRC in 2009; it provides regional vision and growth strategy for the 4-county region through 2040. As part of that regional planning strategy, PSRC also adopted multi-county planning policies for the 4-county region. This requires consistency and ties between land use and transportation in a sustainable framework. The Snohomish County Council in conjunction with Snohomish County Tomorrow is in the process of updating Countywide Planning Policies (CPP) to reflect Vision 2040 regional vision and growth strategy. He pointed out the difference between CPPs and countywide population allocations. It happened that the last 7-year Comprehensive Plan update and the 10-year population allocations occurred at approximately the same time; countywide population allocations are due in 2015. Edmonds usually updates specific plans (e.g. water, sewer, parks, or transportation) on a regular basis. The formal 7-year update is a more comprehensive effort tied to GMA consistency and larger growth and vision issues, for example population and capacity analyses. He provided a timeline for updating the Stormwater Comprehensive Plan, Water Comprehensive Plan, Capital Facilities Plan, Comprehensive Plan Framework/Vision 2040 acknowledgement, Comprehensive Plan Hearing Examiner Review requirement, Street Tree Plan, Shoreline Master Program and Sustainability Indicators. He suggested a joint Council/Planning Board meeting to discuss Sustainability Indicators. Mr. Chave also provided a timeline for review of City Council referrals and Code revision/updates, noting the annual Comprehensive Plan update was a small portion of the Planning Board’s work plan. He offered to have staff provide the Council a monthly update regarding the Planning Board’s progress on these items. The 2010 amendments are intended to update certain specific plans (e.g. water, storm/surface water, street tree plans), incorporate the vision and general sustainability framework from Vision 2040 into Edmonds’ Comprehensive Plan, and move sustainability forward by looking at indicators and ways of measuring progress. It will be important during the 2011-2014 planning period to further analyze how Edmonds can work toward the regional vision and growth strategy. It will also provide an opportunity to review major growth issues and vision within the community, such as Activity Centers, links to transit, and how Edmonds Crossing fits within that framework. In 2015, Snohomish County will allocate population, a process that involves all the jurisdictions. It will be critical prior to 2015 for the City to do its homework to determine what its target should be in advance of that allocation process. He explained the regional allocation does not allocate population to specific jurisdictions, it allocates population to groups of jurisdictions; Edmonds is one of several large cities in Snohomish County. Councilmember Plunkett commented regardless of what the City wants its population target to be, it will be told what to take. Mr. Chave answered the State Office of Financial Management provides a total population for Snohomish County and via Snohomish County Tomorrow the jurisdictions determine how that amount is divided by jurisdiction. The difference in the upcoming allocation is PSRC’s regional distribution goals must also be considered. Therefore, the allocation will not just be countywide but also in relation to the region. It will be important for the City to consider what is reasonable. In the past the allocation has been easy as several jurisdictions wanted the population growth. History has shown the population targeted for Edmonds has not happened, largely because it was less expensive to develop outlying areas. He anticipated the upcoming allocation may encourage infill to accommodate growth. Therefore it is important for Edmonds to proactively determine its target and to be able to make its case regarding what is achievable. Packet Page 10 of 409 Edmonds City Council Draft Minutes March 23, 2010 Page 8 Councilmember Wilson commented other reasons it was important for the City to proactively determine its target include, 1) in the last 5-10 years there has been an effort to protect rural lands from further development and less population will be allocated to those areas, 2) during the last allocation Mountlake Terrace and Bothell got a disproportionately high share of population and Snohomish County Councilmember Gossett is working to ensure that does not happen again. As a result Edmonds may get a larger population allocation and if the zoning does not exist to accommodate development to meet the allocation, the City can be compelled to change the zoning. Councilmember Wilson agreed with Mr. Chave’s suggestion to update the Council regarding the Planning Board’s schedule. Mr. Chave suggested staff could also include an updated schedule with the Planning Board minutes. Councilmember Wilson suggested including the timeline on the City’s website with links to the material. Councilmember Wilson asked whether the Capital Facilities Plan (CFP) included the Capital Improvement Plan (CIP). Mr. Chave answered it was only the CFP; the intent was to develop a 2-year CFP that was tied to the budget. He explained the CFP includes only capital projects in a 20-year planning period; the CIP includes both capital and maintenance projects to be completed within six years. Councilmember Wilson asked how the CIP will be presented to the Council. Public Works Director Noel Miller advised in conversations with the Finance Director, he indicated the CIP will be incorporated into the 2011-2012 budget process. Councilmember Wilson suggested staff also be aware of minor activities that are not sustainable. Mr. Chave explained as the Planning Board reviews the Plans, they will be referencing the Sustainability Element to ensure the sustainability goals are reflected in the updates. Councilmember Wilson inquired about establishing a tree maintenance program as part of the Street Tree Plan, expressing concern that the trees at 5th & Dayton had to be removed because they were dangerous and/or not adequately maintained. Council President Bernheim commented Edmonds’ current population was approximately 40,000; the target for 2025 was 45,000 or approximately 300 people per year. He summarized Edmonds’ growth targets were not large. Mr. Chave agreed they were in line with the City’s experience. Council President Bernheim advised he would be using the timeline Mr. Chave provided to schedule items on the Council’s extended agenda. He questioned why each item had a public meeting and a public hearing at the Council. Mr. Chave explained staff typically briefs the Council to explain the rationale and to take questions/requests/feedback prior to the formal public hearing. He invited the Council to identify any items where they wanted an additional public meeting or to only hold a public hearing. Council President Bernheim pointed out the December 2009 Comprehensive Plan contains numerous references to the importance of the Edmonds Crossing project, a project that has effectively been shelved. Mr. Chave answered Edmonds Crossing is not just the Pt. Edwards project; the central importance of Edmonds Crossing is the multimodal aspect and linking various modes of transportation. Regardless of what ultimately happens with the Pt. Edwards project, it is important to keep Edmonds Crossing as a concept. He suggested during the Comprehensive Plan update extension, discussions occur with Department of Transportation, Sound Transit, and Community Transit regarding short term solutions that would accomplish much of what Edmonds Crossing was intended to accomplish as well as the long term vision of Pt. Edwards. He did not recommend any action that would jeopardize the concept of Edmonds Crossing. The Comprehensive Plan is very specific about phasing; the short term phase did not include Pt. Edwards and many of the short term efforts are consistent with the statements in the Downtown/Waterfront Plan regardless of Pt. Edwards. Packet Page 11 of 409 Edmonds City Council Draft Minutes March 23, 2010 Page 9 Council President Bernheim was concerned that having a Comprehensive Plan that envisioned a multimillion dollar ferry terminal 1000 yards from the existing location would inhibit the ability to generate the kind of waterfront area some envision if that multimillion dollar facility is not going to be built in the foreseeable future. Mr. Chave reiterated the current efforts are consistent with the short term phase in the Downtown/Waterfront Plan. Council President Bernheim summarized the centrality of the multimillion dollar Edmonds Crossing in the Comprehensive Plan did not inhibit the near term ability to revitalize that area. Mr. Chave agreed. Mayor Haakenson declared a brief recess. 7. PRESENTATION OF PROPOSED UPDATE OF THE STORMWATER MANAGEMENT CODE (ECDC 18.30). Stormwater Engineering Program Manager Jerry Shuster explained a public hearing on the Stormwater Management Code was scheduled for April 20. The purpose of the Stormwater Management Code is to: • Control stormwater runoff from: – Construction sites. – New development and redevelopment. • Minimize the effects from development on: – Private and public property (including roads) from flooding or erosion. – The quality of our receiving waters from sediment or other pollutants. – Aquatic habitat including the physical damage of excessive flows that cause erosion and sedimentation. The Stormwater Code affects homeowners, business owners, developers, contractors, stream/lake-side residents, public utilities (PUD, Comcast, etc.) and City capital projects. The City’s first Code was effective July 7, 1977. It required “retention/detention” for sites that met impervious surface threshold (Chapter 12.17) and relied in part on the first King County Drainage Manual. The first revision was made in December 1980 which incorporated the requirements into Edmonds’ first Development Code (Chapter 18.30) and relied on the 1979 Snohomish County Drainage Manual and King County Drainage Manual. The last significant revision was done in 1995 in response to the Puget Sound Water Quality Management Plan. That revision addressed not only flooding but also water quality. That revision did the following: • Addressed the use of infiltration or detention. • Established a different set of requirements for sites > 1 acre and <1 acre. • Established a different set of requirements for sites with >2,000 square feet impervious <5,000 square feet. • Utilized the 1992 Ecology Stormwater Manual. • Was inflexible to other approaches/difficult to approve Low Impact Development (LID) approaches. This revision is necessary because the Department of Ecology issued a Phase II Municipal Stormwater Permit to Edmonds and 80+ other cities. Section S5.C.4 of the Phase II Permit prescribes how the City should regulate runoff from new development, redevelopment, and construction sites. The intent is to protect water quality, by reducing the discharge of pollutants to the maximum extent practicable. The Phase II Permit divides the world into two categories: 1) projects with 1 acre or more of land- disturbing activity (“regulatory threshold”) or Large Site Projects and 2) projects below the regulatory threshold, or Small Site Projects. The Permit only regulates sites that are 1 acre or more and requires cities to use the Stormwater Management Manual For Western Washington (Ecology 2005) or an Packet Page 12 of 409 Edmonds City Council Draft Minutes March 23, 2010 Page 10 equivalent manual. In Edmonds, the Permit will apply only to approximately 10% of the current privately-owned parcels. In response to Ms. Petso’s comment, these requirements are more restrictive than the current Code. For Small Site Projects (less than 1 acre) the Phase II Permit gives regulated jurisdictions a choice:  Continue to apply the local stormwater requirements in effect at the time of permit issuance (February 2007) or  Apply the same minimum requirements as for the Large Project Sites. Edmonds will continue to use the current stormwater requirements for Small Site Projects but will clarify and update the requirements, provide more choices (Best Management Practices or BMPs) and allow for the use of LID techniques for stormwater control. Mr. Shuster commented LID meant different things to different people and includes stormwater management as well as land development strategies. LID in the New Stormwater Code utilizes the definition found in the 2005 Low Impact Development Technical Guidance Manual for Puget Sound, the Bible in the stormwater world for LID. He reviewed LID strategies that the Stormwater Code allows and encourages: 1. Minimize the amount of rainfall that becomes stormwater runoff by recognizing the benefits of:  Green roofs /rainwater harvesting – Building Department.  Minimizing site footprint/native vegetation retention and reforestation – Planning Department.  Pervious pavement. 2. Maximize the amount of stormwater that is managed on-site by allowing:  Rain Gardens.  Other infiltration practices without causing flooding or erosion impacts. 3. Require compost-amended soils in new lawn and landscaped areas. Mark Ubank, Herrera Environmental Consultants, explained the Edmonds Community Development Code Chapter 18.30 has been completely rewritten and describes what needs to be done to comply. The Code will also include a new exhibit, the Stormwater Code Supplement that describes how to do it in Edmonds. The Code and the supplement offer more choices, expand LID options, and provide more options for Best Management Practices for water quality and control and construction site management. For Large Site Projects, the Code relies primarily on the 2005 Ecology Stormwater Manual, with reference to other sections of “equivalent” Phase I Manuals where appropriate. For Small Site Projects, the code allows LID techniques where feasible, provides more pre-sized approaches and updates the sizing based on modern stormwater models. Mr. Ubank identified the minimum requirements for Large Site Projects, explaining most of the requirements were previously required in Edmonds and there is little opportunity to deviate from those requirements. Those requirements are not elaborated on in the Code as they can be found in the DOE Manual. He identified the minimum requirements for Category 1 Small Site Projects (>+2,000 square feet but <5,000 square feet impervious surface) and Category 2 Small Site Projects (>5,000 square feet impervious surface). Mr. Ubank reviewed pre-sizing information for sites up to 10,000 square feet of impervious surface including rain gardens, underground detention pipes/tanks and underground infiltration pipes. He Packet Page 13 of 409 Edmonds City Council Draft Minutes March 23, 2010 Page 11 described modeling done of sites and infiltration rates to pre-determine the size of a rain garden and stormwater chambers. Mr. Shuster reviewed the public process to date: • February 24, 2009 – Council Presentation on planned code update. • June 9, 2009 – Presentation to Council Community Services/Development Services Committee of progress of code update. • November 19, 2009 – Public Open House presenting the planned approach to the new code. • December 31, 2009 – Draft Code and supplement sent to state Department of Commerce for GMA review. • January 4, 2010 - Draft Code and supplement sent for SEPA review and public comment – documents placed on City website soliciting written comments. He explained the Draft Code and supplement is available on the City website and staff is soliciting written comments. A public hearing is scheduled on April 20, 2010. Councilmember Fraley-Monillas referred to Ms. Petso’s concern that only an owner can appeal and asked how that differed from the old code. Mr. Shuster answered on April 6 City Attorney Scott Snyder will discuss global changes to Title 18; that discussion will address variances and exceptions. Councilmember Orvis asked how the infiltration rate was determined. Mr. Shuster answered it was measured; the supplement contains instructions regarding measurements. Larger sites will require the measurement be certified by an engineer. Councilmember Orvis observed the current code allowed the use of alternatives as long as an engineer was involved; applicants had the choice of hiring an engineer or using a cement vault. The proposed revisions will provide more alternatives such as a rain garden. Mr. Shuster summarized the intent was to encourage the generation of less runoff and to capture the water onsite. Councilmember Orvis pointed out the supplement was not included in the Council packet. Mr. Shuster explained it is 78 pages long. A draft is available on the City’s website and an updated version will be available two weeks prior to the public hearing and included in the Council packet for the public hearing. 8. ESTABLISH FIRE PROCEEDS FUND. Council President Bernheim explained his proposal was to place the remaining funds from the sale of assets to Fire District 1, $696,000 minus the approximately $100,000 to repair the Carnegie Library Roof, in a segregated, interest-bearing fund to be reserved for future uses presumably related to asset acquisition. His intent was to remove the funds from the General Fund to avoid their being expended on ongoing expenses. COUNCIL PRESIDENT BERNHEIM MOVED, SECONDED BY COUNCILMEMBER WILSON, TO CREATE A FUND WITH THOSE DOLLARS AND IF PASSED, ASK STAFF TO RETURN WITH THE REQUIRED TECHNICAL ORDINANCE ON A FUTURE AGENDA. Councilmember Wilson commented he generally approved of the proposal. He suggested all future budget summaries/documents provided to the Council not reflect that amount as part of the ending cash balance in the General Fund but as a separate fund such as the Public Safety Emergency Reserve Fund. He suggested the ordinance specify the type of interest-bearing account and recommended a mutual fund rather than a long term investment as it was uncertain when the funds may be needed. Packet Page 14 of 409 Edmonds City Council Draft Minutes March 23, 2010 Page 12 Councilmember Plunkett suggested the interest accrue in the account. Council President Bernheim agreed. MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY. 9. ADOPT A PARK. Councilmember Buckshnis suggested in conjunction with fulfilling the Comprehensive Plan, citizens participate in the Adopt a Park Project. She has adopted two parks during the past five years and has had a great deal of fun while enhancing the community and increasing pride in the neighborhood. She pointed out areas where the parks and streets are clean, there is a good community. Edmonds has over 60 parks; Parks Maintenance Manager Rich Lindsay identified the following parks as best suited for the Adopt a Park Program:  Pine Ridge Park  Yost Park  Hickman Park  Ballinger Park  City Park  Maplewood Park  Seaview Park  Civic Field Park The Off Leash Dog Park was the first park she became involved with in 2005. She provided before and after photographs of the Off Leash Park, explaining the clean-up process took volunteers approximately five years. She provided several photographs of people involved in building kiosks, the double entry gate, fire hydrants and bulletin boards at the Off Leash Park. The second park she became involved in was Hutt Park after seeing Jack Bevan cleaning up the park by himself. There is now an annual park cleanup. Last year Council President Bernheim organized a clean-up at Pine Ridge Park. She suggested anyone interested in participating could also contact the Edmonds Backyard Wildlife Habitat who do park cleanups. She recognized the Edmonds Floretum Club who have adopted the park at Old Mill Town. Councilmember Buckshnis suggested residents get involved and get their friends and neighbors involved, contact the City Parks & Recreation Department for a volunteer form and/or Adopt a Park form; discuss with Parks the scope of work and where to put debris; pick a date and time; notify neighbors, parks users and local newspapers; bring water and/or donuts and have fun cleaning a local park. She summarized adopting a park would implement the following sustainability principles:  Engage and educate: work together as a community and educate youth about the importance of community involvement and keeping parks clean.  Innovate: utilize our community and think beyond conventional approaches (i.e. City of Edmonds P&R) to park clean-up and provide assistance in helping them keep parks clean.  Be a Leader: lead by example; it takes only one volunteer to come forward and begin this process. Work towards 10 volunteers. 10. COUNCIL REPORTS ON OUTSIDE COMMITTEE/BOARD MEETINGS. Council President Bernheim reported on February 23 he attended an EPA webcast on green power cities, cities that the EPA certifies as using a certain percentage of renewable energy. He planned to work toward that in the next few months. On March 9 he attended a discussion by a Starwood Hotels executive regarding the economic health of hotels and tourism in Snohomish County. On March 9 he joined a local Packet Page 15 of 409 Edmonds City Council Draft Minutes March 23, 2010 Page 13 citizen group in discussing the City’s progress on a tree ordinance. Council discussion regarding public and private maintenance of trees, the Street Tree Plan, and a Tree City designation is scheduled in April. On March 10 he attended a City of Shoreline meeting regarding their tree ordinance. On March 12 he attended a presentation by Rick Steves on the difference between European and American approaches to social benefits; according to Mr. Steves, Europeans are more willing to pay for social services and Americans are willing to lose social services rather than pay for them. Tomorrow he planned to attend another meeting in Shoreline regarding their tree ordinance. Councilmember Orvis reported the Snohomish County Health Board meeting included adjustments to the budget as well as discussion regarding how to spend leftover H1N1 funds. Councilmember Buckshnis reported her plans to attend the Snohomish County Tomorrow meeting tomorrow and the Port Commission meeting on Monday. She was unable to attend the WRIA8 meeting but met with Jean White for an orientation and discussion regarding the Edmonds Marsh. She is also involving the Friends of the Edmonds Marsh in WRIA8’s effort. Councilmember Wilson reported he met with Save Richmond Beach and Cascade Land Conservancy recently and has been working on public health issues and the Hospital District for Snohomish County. Councilmember Peterson reported Councilmember Fraley-Monillas and he attended the Highway 99 Taskforce where they discussed the creation of a CG3 zone, a transitional zone between the zoning on Highway 99 and the residential neighborhoods. He also met with the Mayor’s Long Range Task Force and with a subcommittee of the Mayor’s Climate Protection Committee regarding the reusable bag campaign. Another meeting of the Climate Protection Committee is scheduled for April 1 in the Brackett Room in preparation for Earth Day on April 22. Councilmember Fraley-Monillas reported the Highway 99 Task Force highlighted possibilities for future development on Highway 99. Councilmember Plunkett reported the Historic Preservation Commission plans to pursue another Certified Local Government grant; Mr. Chave was successful 4 years ago in obtaining a $15,000 grant that was used for a professional survey of historic properties. If the City is successful in obtaining another grant, it will be used to conduct a survey outside the bowl area. He noted the oldest home in Edmonds, built in 1870, is outside the original survey area. Councilmember Plunkett distributed the Parking Committee’s mission statement, “The City of Edmonds Parking Committee’s mission is to serve as a citywide committee that provides a centralized service to Edmonds residents, visitors, businesses so as to facilitate the focus, concerns, innovations, complaints, recommendations about parking, transit, vehicles and code issues in the community.” He urged anyone with concerns or suggestions to contact the Parking Committee. Councilmember Fraley-Monillas reported the Parking Committee changed from a downtown parking committee to a citywide parking committee. She thanked Councilmember Plunkett for developing the mission statement. 11. MAYOR'S COMMENTS Mayor Haakenson had no report. Packet Page 16 of 409 Edmonds City Council Draft Minutes March 23, 2010 Page 14 12. COUNCIL COMMENTS Council President Bernheim relayed the Economic Development Commission recommended the Council develop and act on a vision. Although the Council declined his proposal for each Councilmember to conduct a visioning meeting, there will be an opportunity at the June 22 meeting for each Councilmember to make a presentation regarding his/her own vision for the City. Council President Bernheim relayed the Council’s extended agenda is available on the City Council’s home page. Councilmember Buckshnis provided a reminder of the community meeting Councilmember Fraley- Monillas and she are holding on Friday, March 26 at the Corner Coffee Bar and Café located in Perrinville in the Lund Building at 18401 76th Avenue from 6:00 – 8:00 p.m. The focus of this meeting will be how residents envision Edmonds. Councilmember Wilson recalled a presentation was made to the Finance Committee regarding installing internet service in the Council Chambers and hoped to move that forward as expeditiously as possible. Councilmember Peterson announced upcoming performances at the Edmonds Center for the Arts including the Seattle Men’s Chorus on March 27 and Joan Osborne on April 24 as well as many other great shows. Further information is available at EC4Arts.org. Councilmember Fraley-Monillas looked forward to meeting residents from the Perrinville area on Friday and hearing how they envisioned the City. Councilmember Plunkett thanked Councilmember Buckshnis for her presentation on Adopt a Park, commenting it showed what could be done. As an example of her statement that well maintained parks reflect the condition of the city, he recalled the cleanup of Bryant Park in New York City resulted in the cleanup of the surrounding neighborhood. 13. ADJOURN With no further business, the Council meeting was adjourned at 9:56 p.m. Packet Page 17 of 409 AM-2958 2.C.

Recommendation from Mayor and Staff It is recommended that City Council authorize the Mayor to sign the 2010 Interlocal Agreement for the Waterfowl (Canada Goose) Management Program. Previous Council Action None Narrative For the past 16 years, the U.S. Department of Agriculture Wildlife Services has contracted with local and state agencies to control the local Canadian Geese population in the greater Lake Washington area. In Edmonds, Lake Ballinger is an area that is used as a nesting habitat for the increasing geese population. The geese population is a contributing factor in the water quality issues involving Lake Ballinger. The program will control the geese population during the spring and summer months using a process called egg addling in which a non-toxic corn oil based product is applied to the eggs. Staff does not anticipate that any lethal control measures of adult geese will be necessary in Edmonds and will not be requesting the USDA to carry out such measures. A year end report will be provided by the USDA Wildlife Services to the contract agencies.

Construction Cost Report and Council Acceptance SCSC Main Entry Project Edmonds City Council Meeting Date:04/06/2010 Submitted By:Jim Stevens Time: Department:Public Works Type: Review Committee: Committee Action:Approved for Consent Agenda Information Subject Title Report on final construction costs for the South County Senior Center (SCSC) Main Entry Repairs Project and Council acceptance of project. Recommendation from Mayor and Staff Council accept the South County Senior Center Main Entry Repairs Project. Previous Council Action On July 7, 2009, the City Council gave approval to solicit construction bids for this project. On September 22, 2009, the City Council authorized the award of the South County Senior Center Main Entry Repairs Project to Buntting, Inc., the lowest responsible bidder for the work. The base bid amount, including sales tax, was $120,450.00. Council approved the expenditure of $140,195.00 for the project to cover any contingency needs. Narrative Physical completion of this project was achieved on February 19, 2010. The total project included the addition of a $7,000 bid alternate to add a brick facade to match the existing building. There were three change orders issued during the construction period, two of which were for time only. The third amounted to a change in value to the original contract of 3.8%, a relatively low amount for work that included a significant amount of excavation and backfill of material in an environment known to be problematic because of its historical uses. Total construction costs amount to $132,929.29, and these costs will be reimbursed by a 2005 CDBG award, so there is no net expense to the City for the work.

CHASE Packet Page 179 of 409 Edmonds City Council Approved Minutes March 16, 2010 Page 12 structure were built in the City-owned right-of-way on James Street, it would land in the park at the old Anderson Marina. Such a sky bridge would allow southbound train passengers to cross the tracks, provide easy access to the Senior Center, and could be used by ferry passengers. He envisioned a continuation of that structure along the James Street right-of-way, over the ferry holding lanes and landing on 2nd Avenue which would provide a connection from the waterfront to downtown, provide a viewpoint, and qualify for the WSDOT’s future rails project. He suggested that possibility be discussed with WSDOT. David Arista, Edmonds, spoke in favor of the resolution supporting the EDC’s recommendations (Agenda Item 12). He strongly urged the Council to consider making Mr. Clifton the full-time Economic Development Director, noting the City is realizing the impact of the four years that position has been vacant. He urged the Council to make economic development a top priority and to schedule an economic development topic on every agenda. He was excited by Mr. Faris’ and Mr. Stewart’s interest in being involved and encouraged them and others to bring their ideas to the Council. Autumn Hegley, Edmonds, echoed Mr. Arista’s request for the Council to adopt the resolution supporting the EDC’s recommendations, noting they are basic, practical suggestions that will provide direction for real action toward generating more activity in downtown Edmonds and making Edmonds a viable community. She commented there is a certain amount of stagnation now and their suggestions would provide a turnaround. Ruth Arista, Edmonds, commented each day everyone has the choice between sitting in one place and taking steps on a journey. Reaching for change is something optimistic, fundamentally inspiring. She expressed support for the roadmap the EDC has created via their recommendations and the proposal for a neighborhood visioning process. She pointed out although the members of the EDC and Planning Board have very diverse backgrounds, they unanimously agreed on these recommendations. She envisioned the recommendations could be a guideline for action, improvement, continuing growth and boosting the quality of life in Edmonds. 8. PRESENTATION ON PLANNED RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENTS (PRD). Councilmember Orvis explained Planning Manager Rob Chave informed the Community Services/Development Services Committee of plans to initiate a rewrite of the subdivision code to include elements of the PRD Code. The City currently has a PRD code and a subdivision code; the intent was to combine them which would also involve the Council in appeals. However, because the rewrite may take some time, he questioned whether the Council was interested in an interim ordinance to return the Council to the appeal process on PRDs as well as address the perimeter setback issue raised by Lora Petso. A third option is to accelerate the subdivision rewrite. He inquired about the timeline for the rewrite. Mr. Chave answered staff briefed the Council in late 2009 on issues to be addressed via the rewrite. Staff plans to present the rewrite to the Planning Board in April; it is unknown how long the Planning Board will spend reviewing it. Council President Bernheim commented the primary objective of the agenda item was to clarify the intent to have a perimeter buffer in a PRD that is in addition to the setback requirement of homes adjacent to the perimeter buffer. He asked whether the code currently required a perimeter buffer in addition to the individual unit setback. Mr. Chave answered lot lines and their relationship to the perimeter buffer was an ownership issue. The perimeter buffer could be established as a common tract that the entire subdivision owns via a homeowner’s association. Another method is the individual homeowners own their section of the perimeter buffer. It was not important which way the perimeter buffer was established, only that it was clear that there was a perimeter buffer, whether commonly owned or individually owned. It currently could be done either way; if the code were amended to require a Packet Page 180 of 409 Edmonds City Council Approved Minutes March 16, 2010 Page 13 commonly owned perimeter buffer with no lot lines, the result would be the lot lines would be removed from the buffer area but the useable space would not change. Councilmember Wilson commented the original intent of the PRD when created by the State was a tool to allow for maximum flexibility for parcels with difficult topography or other environmental features. The intent was to allocate the environmentally sensitive areas to the lot total and allow the same number of units but smaller lots and a large conservation area. He wanted to ensure the subdivision regulations continued to provide maximum flexibility for developments with environmental sensitive areas and/or topography challenges. He suggested the City’s current PRD ordinance did not adequately reflect the original intent of the PRD legislation. Mr. Chave explained the intent was to provide flexibility for developments with environmentally sensitive areas as well as provide a mechanism for alternative forms of home ownership/development such as cottage housing, zero lot line, etc. The City does not allow attached housing in a PRD but does permit alternate forms of home ownership. For example the standard way of developing a lot requires setbacks on all sides which dramatically reduces the usable area for a small lot; a zero lot line makes the space around the house more usable by concentrating it and having the house on one property line. That type of development cannot be done in a standard subdivision; a PRD is the only option. Mr. Chave explained the PRD ordinance was an alternative form of subdivision but was contained in a separate chapter, making it somewhat confusing. The intent is to combine the PRD regulations with the subdivision regulations, holding density constant but giving more flexibility at the subdivision design phase. Councilmember Wilson suggested staff provide a table identifying tools in the current PRD ordinance versus the subdivision ordinance and the State’s intent of the original PRD. He wanted to ensure the benefits of the original PRD legislation were not lost. Mr. Chave suggested staff provide periodic updates to the Community Services/Development Services Committee as the Planning Board’s review progresses. COUNCILMEMBER ORVIS MOVED, SECONDED BY COUNCIL PRESIDENT BERNHEIM, TO DIRECT THE CITY ATTORNEY TO CRAFT AN INTERIM ORDINANCE THAT WOULD RESTORE COUNCIL APPEAL TO PRDs AND ELIMINATE OVERLAPS BETWEEN PERIMETER SETBACKS AND REAR SETBACKS AND BRING IT BACK FOR PUBLIC HEARING AND CONSIDERATION BY THE COUNCIL. MOTION CARRIED (6-1), COUNCILMEMBER PETERSON VOTING NO. 9. PUBLIC COMMENT ON THE SUBJECT OF BUDGET CUTS. Council President Bernheim explained this was scheduled on the agenda as an opportunity to gather public input regarding potential budget cuts. There will be another opportunity to comment at the March 23 Council meeting. Roger Hertrich, Edmonds, commented the City’s budget crisis was similar to that experienced by other cities, counties and states; the need for more revenue, budget cuts and tax increases. He provided the following suggestions: wage increases this year should be very conservative as the City cannot afford to provide raises; employee furloughs should continue or employees offered a choice of layoffs or furloughs; utilize retirements and not filling vacancies as a way to reduce staff; make budget cuts before increasing taxes; and delay a levy another year as residents are unlikely to support a tax increase at this time. Councilmember Orvis spoke in favor of a proforma analysis of the budget which matches fees to the service provided. A proforma analysis was very helpful to the Health Board, allowing the Board to identify programs that pay for themselves and programs that rely on discretionary revenue.

Recommendation from Mayor and Staff Review proposed ordinance and fee resolution and place them on the April 20, 2010 consent agenda for approval. Previous Council Action On February 9, 2010 the CSDS Committee reviewed the item and directed staff to present it to the full Council for review and approval. On March 16, 2010, the proposed ordinance, fee resolution and administrative policy were presented to the full Council for review and consideration. The Council selected two councilmembers to meet with staff and review and discuss possible changes based on comments from the public and City Council. Narrative On March 16, 2010, a public hearing was held on the proposed ordinance and fee resolution to allow the use of City right-of-way for bistro and outdoor dining and placement of art in the City right-of-way. At the conclusion of the hearing, Council selected Councilmembers Wilson and Peterson to meet with staff and review and discuss possible changes based on comments from the public and City Council. Attached is a redlined version of the proposed ordinance (Exhibit 1) and administrative policy (Exhibit 2) showing the changes discussed by staff and the councilmembers. Below is a summary of the proposed changes: 1. Removed the 11pm restriction. Tables, chairs, etc can remain in the right-of-way until the close of business. 2. The clear zone for pedestrian passage around tables and chairs can be reduced to 4 feet in front of obstacles (street trees, signs, street lights, etc) 3. The right of way use fee was reduced to $0.50/square ft per month (plus 12.84% leasehold excise tax) for exclusive outdoor dining. Packet Page 185 of 409 4. Increased the area to 36-inches in front of businesses where general encroachments can be placed without having to be moved. 5. Revised the administrative policy to require sketches rather than a scaled plan. 6. An applicant requesting to place art work in the right-of-way will not be required to provide documentation showing property ownership adjacent to the City right-of-way. 7. Minor revisions to the term art work and submittal requirements for the Edmonds Art Commission. The revised ordinance and fee resolution are attached as Exhibits 3 and 4. Staff recommends the ordinance and fee resolution be placed on the April 20th consent agenda for approval. Narrative from March 16th Council Meeting: In spring 2009, a local restaurant secured a street use permit to use public right of way adjacent to their business for outdoor dining. The restaurant's proposal included fencing within the right of way to create an exclusive dining area for its patrons. After the fencing was installed, the City received several citizen complaints about lack of sidewalk clearance (approximately 36-inches) for pedestrian passage. Because of citizen feedback and problems with sidewalk clearance, it was determined that more specific guidelines should be developed to address similar applications in the future. A copy of the proposed ordinance (Exhibit 1) along with a redline version (Exhibit 2) which shows the proposed changes are attached. An administrative policy (Exhibit 3) and draft fee resolution (Exhibit 4) are also attached for reference. The administrative policy will provide staff with guidelines on how to administer the proposed code amendments and the resolution will establish a fee for use of public right-of-way. Staff contacted several cities in the region to review existing code and policies related to this issue. The amendments and guidelines were then developed and refined based on input from the Community Services Director, City Engineer, Planning Manager, Building Official and the City Attorney. The proposed amendments to Title 18 also address the installation of art work within the public right of way. The changes outline the application process, submittal requirements and provision to have the proposed art work reviewed by the Edmonds Art Commission. The Edmonds Art Commission would then provide a recommendation to the Community Services Director and City Engineer for use and consideration in permit issuance.

Applications for an Encroachment permit to install art in the public right of way shall be subject to the review and recommendation of the Edmonds Arts Commission. No art shall be permitted in the public right of way except as expressly permitted herein. 1. The terms “art” or “art work” as used in this section shall refer only to a work of visual art existing in a single copy or in multiple copies of 200 or fewer that are consecutively numbered by the author and bear the signature or other identifying mark of the author. 2. The terms “art” or art work” do not include: a. Any poster, map, globe, chart, technical drawing, diagram, model, applied art, motion picture or other audiovisual work, book, magazine, newspaper, periodical, data base, electronic information service, electronic publication, or similar publication; b.

Any work not subject to copyright protection under the Visual Artists Rights Act, as codified under federal copyright law, Title 17, as the same exists or is hereafter amended. 3. Encroachment permit requires determination of public benefit. The Edmonds Arts Commission (EAC) is mandated in Chapter 10.20 ECC to advise the City on matters pertaining to art. When the proposed encroachment is art, EAC will review and make written recommendations to the Community Services Director and City Engineer for Packet Page 210 of 409 {WSS762874.DOC;1\00006.900000\ } 6 use and consideration in permit issuance. (See C below.) 4. The public right of way is a traditional forum for public expression. By this permit program the City acknowledges that it is approving uses in a limited public forum. Art, like other exercises of First Amendment rights, may be limited by reasonable time, place and manner restrictions. In this case, these criteria will be utilized to protect the safety of the public who use the right of way for pedestrian or vehicular traffic and to insure that the City provides for accessibility for the disabled. No recommendation or denial shall be based upon the content or message expressed by an artist or in a work of art as long as there is no commercial content. Applicants are encouraged to coordinate their artwork with the design of the building and the historic and pedestrian oriented character of the downtown area. 5. Specific submission requirements for EAC review include, but are not limited to: a. Site plan sketch showing locations of artwork; b. Minimum 1/4 inch scale rendering of the art concept or art component, including at least one elevation showing the art in context or comparable photographs of actual artwork in context; c.. Material/color samples; d. Model (optional); e. Written proposal: 7 copies of a written proposal in 8 1/2 x 11 inch format to include: • A description and summary of a final design proposal for the artwork for the proposed project; • Detailed maintenance requirements; • Schedule for development, fabrication, and completion; • Artists’ resume/background • Evidence of assumption of liability by applicant or designee; For proposal to be reviewed at next scheduled EAC meeting, a complete submission of all requirements must be received a minimum of 10 days prior to the date of the meeting Additional requirements may be requested based on staff input or Packet Page 211 of 409 {WSS762874.DOC;1\00006.900000\ } 7 information sought by EAC members. 6. Review Criteria. Art in public places may be art standing alone, modifiers or definers of space, functional, or used to establish identity. The use of art as an integral part of the structure and function of building is encouraged e.g. the interpretation of light fixtures, benches, hardware, doors, surface finishes, walkways, gates, and other features with the artwork or as a part of the artwork, although only some of these elements would occur in the public right of way. The criteria used for review of Encroachment Review artwork submissions are as follows: a. Constructability of proposed artwork. No artwork shall impair disabled accessibility and barrier free design requirements. b. Artist’s credentials and recognition. c. Durability and craftsmanship in fabrication and production quality - quality of the work is a high priority. d. Due consideration shall be given to the structural and surface soundness of artworks, and to their permanence, including ability to withstand age, theft, vandalism, weathering, and maintenance and possible related repair costs. Careful consideration shall be given to the materials used and the appropriateness of those materials for the conditions of the site. e. Coordination of the artwork with the design of the building and the historic and pedestrian oriented character of the downtown area is encouraged. f. Maintenance/conservation plan. g. Relationship to other existing artwork in vicinity. h. No commercial content - artwork shall not be used as signage (see definition of Packet Page 212 of 409 {WSS762874.DOC;1\00006.900000\ } 8 signage). C. Issuance by the Development Services Director or City Engineer. The Development Services Director, City Engineer or their respective designee, may administratively, without hearing, approve a Street Use or Encroachment permit if: 1. The proposed use shall not interfere with vehicular or pedestrian traffic, including but not limited to the following requirements: a. No portion of the public right-of-way designed and intended for vehicular traffic or parking shall be permanently occupied; b. Requirements of the State Building Code, including but not limited to all provisions relating to disabled accessibility and barrier-free design requirements shall be met; c. Any mobile vending units shall be properly licensed pursuant to Chapter 4.12 ECC; d. Permit application fees have been paid. (see section 18.70.050 of this chapter); e. A “Clear Zone” must be maintained on public sidewalks or walkways. A Clear Zone refers to an area 7 feet in height and 5 feet in width providing a level, safe walking surface along the public sidewalk. Clear zone on sidewalks shall not include any curbing, planting strips or ramps. For tables and chairs placed in the public right of way, the Clear Zone can be reduced to 4 feet in width in front of obstacles (trees, street lights, sign posts, etc). f. All temporary objects shall be removed from the right of way on twenty four hours notice to accommodate public events. Temporary objects are subject to removal in the event of an emergency; and g. All temporary objects, excluding approved awnings and wall signs, that project more than 36 inches into the right of way shall be removed each day at the close of business.

The proposal will not unreasonably interfere with the rights of the public; and 5. The proposal (if for an Encroachment permit) either benefits the public interest, safety or convenience (e.g. supports or protects the city street, reduces pedestrian hazards) or is an accessory structure such as a fence normally associated with residential use of the property and fully complies with the requirements of subsections (B) (1) through (3) of this section.

E. Appeal. The decision of the Development Services Director, City Engineer, or their respective designees, may be appealed to the hearing examiner as a Type II proceeding under the procedures set forth in Chapter 20.06, provided, however, that the establishment of compensation for use of the public right-of-way is Packet Page 215 of 409 {WSS762874.DOC;1\00006.900000\ } 11 a legislative decision of the city council and is not subject to judicial review.

Scott Snyder, Office of the City Attorney RE: Title 18 and Community Service Comments In the attached draft ordinance, please note the change made to Section 18.10.030(C). As you may remember, the staff’s intent was to limit our suggested changes to providing references to specific City appeal or review procedures. With minor exceptions, we have not made changes to the substantive provisions of the Code. One question we asked the CSDS Committee was whether the one dollar per month charge levied on unlawful sewer connections should be increased. It was originally established somewhere around 1980 and has not been updated. The CSDS Committee indicated they thought an additional monthly charge of $20.00 for unlawful connections was appropriate. Note this is not a fine or a penalty but a charge representing the additional burdens on the system. Accordingly, $20.00 has been inserted in this section. Another issue which we discussed in committee is the current penalties provided in Section 18.45.070 for illegal tree cutting. The current fine, established some years back, is $1,000 per day or $500 per tree, with that amount tripling to $3,000 per day and $1,500 per tree for clearing in a critical area or critical area buffer. Given recent discussions with Council regarding the value of trees and the City’s experience in the Point Wells Development, staff suggests that the appropriate penalty for illegal clearing be considered when the City Council reviews tree issues on an upcoming agenda.

Vision: A healthy, functioning pocket estuary freely connected to Puget Sound that provides habitat for a diversity of native plants, fish and wildlife and is maintained as a recreational asset for the Edmonds community. Rational: • The current Edmonds Marsh is a remnant of a barrier estuary, a uniquely rich Puget Sound habitat that is an ecological and economic asset to our City. • Less than 20% of historical tidal wetlands in Puget Sound remain intact. Nearly 100% of barrier estuaries, like Edmonds Marsh, have been completely lost in central Puget Sound. • Since the founding of Edmonds, the Marsh has lost over 50% of it’s original size, the majority of which was salt marsh habitat • Reestablishment of proper hydrology in the marsh system would add elasticity to handle flushing from storm events, improve storm water management, and help adapt to sea- level rise. • Preserving and enhancing current native plant, fish and wildlife resources provided by mudflat and remnant salt marsh habitat maintains local biodiversity. • Edmonds Marsh represents a unique opportunity for the community to help envision and create a healthy wildlife and recreation area that attracts visitors to our City Goals: • Inform the community of the existence and importance of Edmonds Marsh • Become an advocate in the effort to daylight Willow Creek • Identify and engage primary stakeholders • Scope, fund and contract a marsh enhancement/daylighting feasibility study that builds upon existing studies Packet Page 260 of 409 Biological Condition of the Edmonds Waterfront and Preliminary Feasibility Considerations for Nearshore Ecosystem Restoration Prepared for: The Maria Norbury Foundation Edmonds, WA Prepared by: Keeley O’Connell, Restoration Ecologist Doug Myers, Director of Science Barbara Owens, Project Specialist People For Puget Sound 911 Western Ave, Ste 580 Seattle, WA 98104 January 31, 2009 Packet Page 261 of 409 ii Biological Condition of the Edmonds Waterfront and Preliminary Feasibility Considerations for Nearshore Ecosystem Restoration Executive Summary: People For Puget Sound is a non-profit environmental group working for the protection and restoration of Puget Sound through advocacy, education and action. Our Habitat Restoration team has developed and sustained over 20 restoration projects at multiple geographic scales throughout Puget Sound’s marine shorelines. The Restoration Ecologists at People For Puget Sound have prepared a biological assessment and preliminary feasibility study to consider restoration options along the Edmonds waterfront for the Maria Norbury Foundation. The biological and ecological conditions of the Edmonds waterfront in context with the historical, and several alternative future scenarios are compared for purposes of stimulating a community conversation. Edmonds marsh and Marina Beach Park are highly impaired remnant ecosystems struggling to function within an urbanized waterfront community. Plans of the City of Edmonds, Port of Edmonds, Sound Transit, Washington Department of Transportation and other stakeholders developed under a different economic reality are reviewed in this report in order to consider a new paradigm of tighter budgets, increased emphasis on Puget Sound recovery and a more inclusive community planning process. Central to the report’s approach is the potential to envision a more robust restoration project focusing on expanding the Edmonds Marsh, daylighting Willow Creek, restoring the historical natural sediment transport and tidal processes that can make Edmonds more resilient to sea level rise. We also envision including shoreline access for residents and visitors, and enhancing the quality of their experience while in downtown Edmonds. All this must be accomplished while providing for the function that planned multi-modal transportation improvements require. A conceptual restoration design, feasibility study outline and cost estimates are provided as a starting point for community conversations. Necessary Stakeholders have been identified and contacted to determine their willingness to participate in future conversations on whether and how many of the conceptual design elements can be accomplished and what changes to existing local, regional and state plans might be needed to accomplish fuller restoration of Edmond’s unique coastal ecosystem.

shoreline from Everett to Seattle affords magnificent views that belay a natural system constrained by over a century of human development and associated habitat loss. This section of shoreline is dominated by loss of freely available sediment sources, restricted fish access to small watersheds, and significant loss of historical backshore marsh and lagoon complexes. The shoreline of Edmonds, WA is no exception. The pressures of an urban shoreline community, such as contaminated stormwater runoff, hardened vertical structures on the shoreline, and disturbance to wildlife from ferry and boat traffic, people and domestic pets give it the characterization “degraded”. In the middle of this urban environment is the Edmonds Marsh, a remnant of a historical barrier estuary and marsh complex, one of the few remaining such ecological features in Puget Sound. This report prepared for the Maria Norbury Foundation outlines the characterization of historic habitat loss to Edmonds Marsh and neighboring nearshore ecosystems, describes the current conditions in the southern portion of downtown Edmonds, WA including proposed capital improvement plans by the City of Edmonds and Department of Transportation. The report also identifies initial scoping and feasibility elements of selected restoration actions and provides a conceptual alternative to the currently proposed Washington Department of Transportation multi-modal ferry terminal complex ‘Edmonds Crossing’. Finally, the report identifies potential stakeholders that could serve as an early-action partnership to build local agencies, citizens and community groups around an alternative vision. 2.0 Statement of Approach to Current Investigation This investigation involved a literature review of pertinent City, regional and State agency and privately contracted studies of the study area to compile current biological and ecological data on Edmonds Marsh complex, historical data and change analysis of the study area, including the Unocal cleanup and Point Edwards sties, and a review of previously proposed restoration actions. People For Puget Sound staff then expanded upon the restoration actions proposals to include expansion of the marsh into the former Unocal site and expansion of previous proposals to daylight Willow Creek. Staff formulated potential threats from the proposed ferry terminal replacement based on the review of Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) documents and best available science of the functions of and threats to Puget Sound nearshore ecosystems. Initial feasibility of selected restoration actions and proposed alternatives to ferry terminal developments was based on review of similar projects in Puget Sound, current site conditions, review of minutes from public meetings regarding proposed actions (development and restoration) and personal communication with City staff, citizens and community groups. This body of information was collected and reviewed by staff between September and December 2008. Packet Page 264 of 409 3 3.0 Description of historic habitat losses and existing nearshore ecosystem function 3.1 Current Conditions Edmonds Marsh is a unique ecological feature in the central Puget Sound basin. Even before it was diked and filled, this marsh was likely a rare habitat, and the remnant that we enjoy today is even rarer. Since the early 1900’s, approximately 90% of backshore tidal marshes in Puget Sound have been filled for agriculture or development. The current 23-acre marsh is what remains of what was originally estimated to be a 40- acre barrier estuary and marsh complex (figures1, 2 and 3; Appendix A, plates 1-3). Two small streams, Willow and Shellabarger creeks, converge and drain into the marsh. These two creeks provide a year round source of freshwater into the system along with seasonal surges of debris, sediment, and stormwater runoff. The marsh itself supports a gradient of native freshwater to saltwater emergent vegetation, though the transition through this gradient has been altered due to years of diking and draining (figure 4). A tide gate installed in the early part of the century was removed in 1989 to allow for tidal waters to enter the marsh again. This action allowed reestablishment of salt tolerant vegetation in the lower reaches of the marsh, however, not to the extent that was likely seen prior to the early alterations. The salt tolerant plant species are limited to the interior of the marsh along the drainage channels (figures 2 and 4). Investigations have found evidence this represents a restriction of the emergent salt marsh plants to areas of lower tidal elevation in the Edmonds marsh compared to other salt marshes in Puget Sound, due to the constriction of tidal exchange through the pipe and culvert system (Pentec, 1998). Recent documentation indicates continued encroachment of the freshwater marsh habitat into the salt tolerant fringe and attributes it to additional limitation of tidal influence due to sedimentation of the culvert system (City of Edmonds, 2008). Therefore, the majority of Edmonds marsh is composed of emergent freshwater vegetation, and limited salt tolerant vegetation. Several invasive plant species have been reported in the marsh, most notably purple loosestrife (Lythrum salicaria), but also Himalayan blackberry (Rubus discolor), knotweed (Fallopia spp.), and reed canary grass (Phalaris arundinacea). Appendix B gives a full list of native and invasive vegetation to have been reported at the marsh and surrounding habitats. The outlet of the marsh, Willow Creek, is directed through an open, channelized culvert that runs 600 ft along the southwest edge of the marsh before heading south for an additional 780 ft alongside the railroad tracks (figure 2). It passes under the tracks through a pair of 36-inch diameter pipe culverts into a small tidal exchange area. The creek then reenters a 48-inch diameter pipe culvert said to be 1,275 ft long (City of Edmonds, 1998), but could be as long as 1,450 ft (Pentec, 1998). This pipe passes under Admiral Way, parking lots, and Marina Beach Park before opening up into the Sound at approximately 1.5+ ft mean lower low water (Pentec, 1998). The upland riparian corridor is intact and healthy along the eastern edge of the marsh, supporting palustrine and forested, palustrine scrub-shrub and palustrine emergent wetland communities (figure 4) (Pentec, 1998; Anderson Consulting, 2002; WSDOT, 2004). This area also hosts the privately owned Willow Creek fish hatchery (formerly Packet Page 265 of 409 4 Deer Creek hatchery), established in 1985, which rears coho salmon fry for release at other watersheds. The City of Edmonds recently completed a stream improvement project along this section of Willow Creek, anchoring large wood jams to promote the slow meandering of the creek and reduce erosion. The riparian zone to the north and south of the marsh has been reduced to a thin band of native trees, mostly red alder (Alnus rubra), black cottonwood (Populus trichocarpa), Big-leaf maples (Acer macrophyllum) and willows (Salix spp.), and an emergent wetland understory (see Appendix A for a full listings of plant species). A public walkway and viewing platforms have been added along the northern boundary of the marsh. The western fringe of the marsh has been completely denuded of beneficial vegetation, as this side of the marsh is constricted by the BNSF railroad right of way. 3.2 Characterization of historic habitat losses 3.2.1 Shoreline Changes The Edmonds shoreline lies at the northeastern extent of the South Central Puget Sound sub-basin. It is the largest and most diverse of Puget Sound’s sub-basins and the most affected by human modifications. According to a recent change analysis study conducted by the Puget Sound Nearshore Ecosystem Restoration Project (Leschine and Petersen, 2007), the Edmonds shoreline has been subject to a number of significant modifications leading to fundamental changes in nearshore structure and resultant habitat functions (figure 5 and Appendix A plates 4-10). The Edmonds waterfront lies within a 14.4 km shoreline drift cell in which sediments historically eroded from bluffs from as far South as Pipers Creek in King County due to mass wasting and were distributed northward through wind and wave dominated longshore transport to Mukilteo. This natural sediment delivery process is necessary to sort and distribute bluff sediments into the cobble, gravel, sand and silt fractions that make up Puget Sound’s complex beaches and associated habitats. For example, eelgrass is dependent on a constant supply of fine sediments that settle at appropriate depths along the shoreline. However, nearly 100% of that drift cell is now armored to protect the Burlington Northern Railroad line. This has the effect of limiting the sediment budget, especially to the north, creating a more erosive environment to the beaches. Also, large overwater structures such as the Edmonds Marina, interrupt the remnant sediment budget causing accumulations on the updrift side (Marina Beach) and erosion further north. The Edmonds Marina essentially bisects the historic drift cell into two separate drift cells. 3.2.2 Wetlands Changes The nearly continuous bluff system was punctuated by several small creek mouths, some of which like Willow Creek, formed barrier estuaries, a rare geologic and biologically rich coastal ecosystem. In all of Puget Sound, only 241 barrier estuary features have been mapped historically and only 184 of those remain on the landscape today. While there are nearly 600 stream insertions into the South Central Puget Sound Basin (see Project Site Map in Figures), only 44 of those have the right underlying geology to form barrier estuaries. Of those 44 historic barrier estuaries in South Central Puget Sound, only 22 remain and each of those has been severely changed due to human activities. Within the Edmonds drift cell, 18% of the estuary wetland area has been lost. The importance of these shoreline features has become known through Packet Page 266 of 409 5 studies of juvenile Chinook salmon migration under the auspices of salmon recovery planning. The Shared Strategy for Puget Sound Chinook Recovery (Redman, et al., 2005) identifies barrier estuaries and features like it on the shoreline to be invaluable as resting, feeding and physiological transition zones for the smallest life history types of migrating Chinook salmon juveniles as they emerge from large rivers. The shallow, quiet, less saline waters provide refuge from predators and time to make the transition from a saltwater fish to one that will be spending the next several years in the open ocean. Barrier estuary features are also documented to support waterfowl, shorebirds, great blue herons and native clams. Edmonds marsh is a 23-acre transitional freshwater marsh with constricted emergent salt marsh remnant of what was estimated to be an approximately 40-acre barrier estuary. Specific biological features of the Edmonds marsh will be discussed later in this report. 3.2.3 Water Quality Changes In addition to the changes described to the immediate shoreline above, the contributing watershed in the Edmonds area has been heavily developed leading to clearing of riparian vegetation, increases in impervious surfaces that generate stormwater pollution and a large human population that requires sewage treatment and discharge. These watershed influences and direct pollution potential from the Edmonds Marina make the Edmonds shoreline susceptible to water quality problems. These are somewhat mitigated by the rapid tidal flushing of the South Central Puget Sound basin. Although, because Edmonds is near the so called “triple junction” with Admiralty Inlet and the Whidbey basin, occasional oceanographic gyres can set up that prevent mixing and disbursal of pollutants (King County, 2002). Much of the stormwater from the surrounding uplands is diverted away from the marsh via the Edmonds Way drainage system, and likewise through the Dayton Street outfall to the north (Pentec, 1998) (figure 6). While this reduces the amount of freshwater entering the system, it also currently reduces the amount of potential contaminates (heavy metals, oil and pesticides) from surface runoff. Even this benefit is limited during heavy storm events, especially those following extended periods of dry weather, increasing the amount of polluted runoff the area streets, roofs, and lawns. More locally legacy petroleum by-products, heavy metals, and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons have leached into area soils from operation of the Unocal facility. These chemical contaminants are being remediated by the Department of Ecology but would have already affected sub-surface biota in the marsh. 3.3 Description of potential legacy pollutants from Chevron tank farm According to Department of Ecology and the Unocal Corp., the former Unocal site was contaminated with petroleum products (gasoline, diesel, and bunker fuel) in surface and subsurface soils, ground water and surface water and sand blast grit and paint chips in surface soils that are a source of heavy metal contamination, including arsenic, lead and zinc (figure 7). To date, over 130,000 tons of contaminated soil and 9000 gallons of petroleum have been removed from the site, as well as 6,000 tons of asphalt/polyurethane coating material and associated soil and 19.4 cy of asbestos-containing pipe (Unocal Corp., 2003). Monitoring wells have been constructed to look for additional leachate that would indicate contamination is still present at the site. Monitoring of these wells is Packet Page 267 of 409 6 scheduled through 2013, but Ecology may be able to sign off on the site as early as 2011. The long-term legacy of these pollutants may be felt within the food chain of the marsh because of its relatively low levels of connection to the sound. In similarly contaminated sites throughout Puget Sound, legacy effects of petroleum contamination have resulted in elevated instances of liver lesions in flat fish such as English sole (Puget Sound Update, 2007). 3.4 Use of remnant ecological features by wildlife Extensive research was conducted at the Unocal site and Edmonds Marsh in 2002 by King County during the Brightwater Environmental Impact Statement study and in 2004 by WSDOT for the Edmonds Crossing Final Environmental Impact Statement. Many resources from these studies were used here, including the following table outlining the current resources at the Unocal and Edmonds Marsh sites. Table 1. Excerpt from King County (2002) Brightwater Final EIS. This study was conducted prior to the redevelopment of the upper yard at Unocal into the Point Edwards condominiums. Wetland A is defined as Edmonds Marsh, Wetland B is the stormwater detention pond south of the marsh on the Unocal site and Wetland C is the hillside, defined as a side slope seep wetland, between the Point Edwards development and the lower yard of the Unocal site. Packet Page 268 of 409 7 The Edmonds marsh complex, through roughly half it’s original size, provides habitat features that benefit juvenile salmonid species and other Puget Sound species of biological and/or recreational value (Dungeness crab, Great blue heron, waterfowl), primarily, salinity gradients, prey resources, epibenthic assemblages, and habitat complexity (City of Edmonds, 200; Pentec, 2001). The limited use of the Edmonds Marsh, Willow and Shellabarger creeks for natural salmon rearing is likely due to restricted access to the marsh and creeks, habitat degradation within the marsh and lower watersheds, and stormwater surges into the marsh via the creeks that cause sediment loading and introduce contaminants into the system (Pentec, 1998). The palustrine and riverine upland communities surrounding the marsh, most notably the eastern side, provide habitat for wildlife, including Great blue herons and bald eagles. In 2007 and 2008, local birdwatchers, City staff and citizens reported the use of the southeastern portion of the site abutting the Unocal cleanup site by nesting Great blue herons, with up to seven or eight nests (City of Edmonds, 2007; Susie Schafer, Pilchuck Audubon Society, pers comm.) (Appendix A, plate 11). This is the first documentation of heron nesting occurring on the site since 1998 (Anderson Consulting, 2004) and represents significantly more importance to this site for Great blue herons than was indicated by WSDOT’s 2004 environmental impact statement for Edmonds Crossing. Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife includes a portion of the southwestern slope at Point Edwards in a bald eagle territory surrounding an active eagle nest near Deer Creek south of Edmonds. However, the majority of the dead trees and snags throughout the Point Edwards site were removed in February 2004 prior to construction of the Point Edwards condos (Appendix B, plate 12). Reports indicate nearly one-third of the trees on the north slope of Point Edwards were dead or dying prior to clearing, and many canopy trees (mostly Big-leaf maple) were reported infected with root-rot fungus (Armillaria mellea) (Anderson Consulting, 2004). King County (2002) reports evidence of pileated woodpecker foraging on site, as well. The majority of the marsh extending from the riparian palustrine uplands towards the interior of the marsh complex up to the tidally influenced regions is characterized by freshwater emergent wetlands species dominated by the non-native cattail (Typha latifolia) and invasive purple loosestrife (Lythrum salicaria). This area of the marsh provides cover and some food resources for wildlife such as marsh wrens, red-wing blackbirds and other marsh dwelling songbirds, raccoons, deer, mountain beaver, and river otter. However, since the area is dominated by non-native and invasive species, it is not optimal freshwater marsh habitat for local species. The estuarine portion of the marsh is characterized by high saline zones along the deeper tidal channels that experience regular inundation at high tide and moderate to low saline zones closer to the freshwater emergent wetlands. These zones are dominated by native vegetation typical of the saline profile throughout Puget Sound saltmarshes, dominated by saltbrush (Atriplex patula), seashore saltgrass (Distichlis spicata), and pickleweed (Salicornia virginica) in the higher saline areas and seacoast bulrush (Scirpus maritimus) and Lyngby’s sedge (Carex lyngbyei) in the lower saline area (Pentec, 1998). The higher saline portion of the marsh, which is constricted to deep, channelized culverts provides marginal foraging and rearing habitat for juvenile salmononids, Dungeness crab, sculpin (Cottus spp.) and stickleback (Gasterosteous aculeatus), Great blue heron, waterfowl, and Packet Page 269 of 409 8 shorebirds due to the lack of habitat structure within the culvert and poor water quality due to stormwater runoff, especially in the summer months. The naturally channelized, native estuarine portion of the marsh that is characterized by lower salinity emergent vegetation appears to be the most productive area of the entire marsh complex, despite the substantial constriction of this zone due to limited tidal influence. This area provides foraging habitat for juvenile salmonids, Dungeness crab, sculpin and stickleback, Great blue heron, waterfowl, and shorebirds. Of particular interest is the very limited use of the marsh by adult and juvenile salmonids. Willow and Shellabarger creeks are listed as anadromous fish bearing streams in the City of Edmonds Shoreline Master Program (SMP). Due to restricted access, the marsh complex does not currently support successful spawning or rearing of salmon, though the occasional adult coho is found to have negotiated the culverts and channels up to the Willow Creek hatchery area. The habitat currently available is most suitable for use by coho salmon, based on the size of the marsh for rearing habitat and the structure of Shellabarger and Willow creeks for spawning habitat. It is estimated that, with improvements to the system, the current extent of the creeks and marsh complex could support up to 60 spawning adult coho pairs, resulting in a small, but naturally sustained run within this watershed (Pentec, 1998). Packet Page 270 of 409 9 4.0 Restoration Actions The following proposed restoration actions have been previously identified by reports produced for the City of Edmonds, Port of Edmonds, or in plans developed for the Edmonds Crossing ferry terminal project, with the exception of marsh expansion. Many of these recommended restoration actions would fall under priority actions in several regional recovery action plans, including 2007-2009 Puget Sound Conservation and Recovery Plan and WRIA 8 Salmon Conservation Plan. Daylighting Willow Creek, in particular, is highlighted as a Capital Project Recommendation in the WRIA 8 Conservation Plan Start List (Start List #163). Restoration of the marsh and daylighting of Willow Creek have also been identified as important community enhancements by members of the Alliance of Citizens for Edmonds, Pilchuck Audubon, and Edmonds Backyard Wildlife Habitat Project. 4.1 Daylight Willow Creek Despite the intact character of the remaining portion of the Edmonds Marsh complex, the available habitat is largely inaccessible to anadromous fish species due to restricted access to Willow Creek through the offshore pipe culvert opening and 1200+ ft pipe culvert that connects to the marsh (figure 2). Although removal of the tide gates in 1989 once again allowed tidal waters into the marsh, tidal influence continues to be restricted due to the small diameter of the pipe culvert and channelized nature of the open culvert connecting the marsh to the Sound. In addition, the City of Edmonds maintains manual check valve that can be closed during high tides to maintain the marsh level below 13+ MLLW to prevent flooding. Daylighting of Willow Creek has been identified by several habitat assessments, including several performed by the Port of Edmonds (Pentec, 1998) and City of Edmonds (Pentec, 2001). Improving access to Edmonds Marsh would greatly benefit both juvenile and adult salmon species, wading birds and waterfowl, and crabs and similar benthic invertebrates. Pentec (2001) suggests that daylighting Willow Creek would allow for the establishment of self-sustaining runs of coho and chum salmon, and sea-run cutthroat trout. While these actions would only slightly increase the acreage of wetland habitat along the riparian fringe, the increased flow of water into the marsh at high tide would establish a more natural transition from freshwater to saltwater marsh habitats and possibly alleviate waterfront flooding (Pentec, 1998). Site visits in August and September noted a number of freshwater non-native and invasive species along the western and northern edges of the marsh, most notably invasive knotweed (Fallopia spp.) (Appendix A, plate 13). Increased flow of water from Puget Sound would begin to eliminate those invasive species from the marsh, and expand the mudflat and saltmarsh (sedge dominated, low saline habitat). The Port of Edmonds contracted Pentec Environmental, Inc. in 1998 to evaluate the feasibility of daylighting the outlet of Willow Creek into the Edmonds Marina. While the study found that opening Willow Creek into the marina would have little impact on marina operations, it would likely increase sedimentation rates into the marina and create turbid plumes during runoff events. This study suggests the more appropriate restoration action would be to daylight Willow Creek into a configuration that reconnects it along the Marina Beach area. Packet Page 271 of 409 10 Historic T-sheet analysis shows the location of the historic sand spit and original outlet of Willow Creek along what is now the Edmonds marina (figure 3). While the historic mouth of Willow Creek created a sizable sand spit in the location of the current marina, relocation and incorporation of the creek outfall into the Marina Beach complex would restore the natural sediment transport processes without affecting dredging frequency in the marina. The approximate reconnection point is based on preliminary assumptions regarding sedimentation and long-shore drift (figure 8). A full feasibility analysis of the historic channel and current technical constraints would need to be studied further to determine the likeness to which the marsh could be reconnected to Puget Sound, in part, using the historical footprint. Also, the marsh complex is much smaller and a meandering channel would need to be longer than historic conditions to connect to the current marsh configuration. 4.2 Additional creek channel improvements downstream of the Willow Creek Hatchery Pentec Environmental has been working with the city of Edmonds to improve in-stream structure of Willow Creek through the construction of engineered log jams and riparian plantings near the Willow Creek Hatchery, in an effort to increase pool frequencies, stabilize eroding banks, minimize deposition of fine substrates into stream channel and enhance riparian vegetation for shade (Appendix A, Plate 14). Pentec and the City have also identified additional in-stream channel enhancements that can be made within the braided channels downstream of the hatchery (Pentec, 1998). In particular, deposition of fine sediments in spawning reaches would need to be limited for salmon spawning to be successful. One option presented would be to divert Willow Creek through a naturally depressed area north of the hatchery along SR 104, creating a settling basin for fine sediments prior to the creek entering the stretch of highest quality spawning habitat alongside and below the hatchery. These enhancements are designed to improve coho salmon spawning habitat, but will also help the stream system mature in concert with the downstream marsh and allow the entire system to function more naturally and be more resilient to heavy rains and flooding episodes. Anderson Consulting (2004) also reported a significant loss of perching habitat and snags on the wooded slope above the marsh during construction of Point Edwards, due to the removal of dead or dying deciduous trees (Appendix A, plate 15). Habitat restoration both along stream channels within the marsh complex, as well as the adjacent uplands could include the addition of snags and perching structures. During restoration, all dead stumps and woody debris should be preserved on site as habitat structure and an available source of on-site nutrients. 4.3 Pine Street culvert improvements Upstream of the marsh complex is a fish passage barrier at Pine St. where a pipe culvert under the street limits fish from accessing intact stream habitat above this point (figure 2). Pentec (1998) recommends a series of step pools to allow navigation of this steep, channelized section of the creek. 4.4 Non-native and invasive plant control Several species of non-native and invasive species were noted during site visits in August and September. Reduction of these plants may occur naturally through the natural shift Packet Page 272 of 409 11 in saltmarsh habitat through the southern portion of the marsh complex through increasing tidal flow by daylighting Willow Creek to the Puget Sound. However, invasive species control could be an early action item to engage and involve the Edmonds community in restoration and protection of the marsh. Additional surveys would need to be conducted throughout the freshwater fringe of the marsh to determine the exact extent of invasive plants and develop a management plan to prioritize control efforts and plan volunteer service days in the summer months. 4.5 Edmonds marsh expansion into Unocal remediation site Given the uncertain future of ferry relocation plans by WSDOT as reported in several public meetings attended by People for Puget Sound, a new opportunity exists to re- envision a more robust restoration project on the former Unocal site. WSDOT maintains an option to purchase the Unocal site for planned ferry terminal loading relocation as identified in their Edmonds Crossing Environmental Impact Statement (WSDOT, 2004). However, Ecology informs us that WSDOT cannot close on this option until the clean up has been completed and the remediation site closed. In a letter sent to Edmonds residents dated November 14, 2008, Chevron Environmental Management Company states that monitoring will continue for two years and that “By 2011, we hope to return a clean site to the Edmonds community, for your enjoyment”. Hydrologic reconnection to the existing Edmonds marsh to the Unocal site could be accomplished with the removal of the existing levee that separates the two sites (figure 8). Tidal waters would naturally sheet flow across the area re-establishing a natural dendritic channel configuration as happens in many marshes similarly restored throughout the Sound in recent years. The close proximity of native salt marsh vegetation would allow expansion into the restored area quickly with little or no planting effort. The increased salinity and tidal prism would also be expected to help control invasive freshwater marsh species already established in the Edmonds Marsh. This project component, coupled with the daylighting of Willow Creek downstream of the marsh to the Sound would greatly increase the ecological function of this historically important estuary and make the entire Edmonds shoreline more resilient to flooding and sea level rise. For specific feasibility discussion on this restoration component, see section 5 below. 4.6 Marina Beach Restoration People for Puget Sound applauds the advanced mitigation step taken by WSDOT of removing the old Unocal Pier (oil dock) from Marina Beach. While no specific plans have been forwarded, Ecology suggests that this action will be honored as credit for WSDOT future mitigation needs in the area. Removal of the Unocal pier was identified in the Edmonds Crossing Environmental Impact Statement (WSDOT, 2004) as a mitigation action for the ferry terminal relocation. But, like the potential restoration of the Unocal site for marsh expansion, the opportunity to restore Marina Beach to more natural function is afforded by uncertain plans and budgets of WSDOT to move forward with ferry terminal relocation. However, Marina Beach persists as an artificial remnant of a once more robust and varied beach ecosystem. The cross-shore sediment transport interruption created by the Edmonds Marina breakwater creates a depositional environment that would not exist there naturally. The Washington Department of Fish Packet Page 273 of 409 12 and Wildlife is expected to invest through the Estuarine and Salmon Recovery Program in a pilot beach nourishment project along several sections of Puget Sound shoreline similarly impaired by the Burlington Northern railroad. Because almost 100% of the shoreline drift cell is armored by the railroad, true process-based restoration could not occur without removal of significant portions of the railroad. Because BNSF is an integral part of the region’s transportation infrastructure, the restoration of beach processes is most likely to occur through beach nourishment. Packet Page 274 of 409 13 5.0 Qualitative projection of continuing threat from preferred alternative ferry terminal expansion WSDOT has proposed a multi-modal ferry terminal, Edmonds Crossing, to be constructed adjacent to the south end of the Edmonds marsh on the former Unocal site (figures 9 and 10). Many citizens have concern over the proximity to the remnant marsh associated uplands and implications that a redevelopment of that area would limit the ability for restoration (figure 11). People For Puget Sound has identified the following threats to the Edmonds marsh and adjacent lands posed by the Edmonds Crossing project. 5.1 Stormwater Runoff Plans for moving the ferry terminal to Marina beach would require a large vehicle staging area to be built over the Unocal site once it is remediated, adding a significant amount of impervious surface near a sensitive marsh site. Likely, a portion of the upland riparian corridor surrounding the south side of the marsh would be removed, also increasing stormwater runoff into the marsh complex (Appendix A, plate 15). Since the existing ferry terminal staging area is on existing city of Edmonds and State surface streets, no corresponding removal of impervious surface would accommodate the relocation. Therefore a net increase of impervious surface, with high intensity use by vehicles would be added. Similar parking areas have been shown to release oil, heavy metals and other toxic substances to the marine environment. Modern stormwater retention ponds would need to be built adjacent to the parking area, which would also reduce the potential function of the existing Edmonds marsh. 5.2 Air pollution The Edmonds marsh vicinity currently has good air quality because few sources of air pollutants are nearby. Placing the ferry staging area amidst the marsh complex would increase the potential sources of air pollution from idling vehicles and ferries. 5.3 Noise pollution Currently, the Edmonds marsh site has some noise pollution from ongoing Unocal remediation activities. These would be expected to cease following clean up and restoration of the site. However, construction associated with ferry terminal expansion would prolong the noise pollution as would continuing operations of a ferry loading operation. A great blue heron colony in the existing Edmonds Marsh riparian zone could be disturbed by noise. 5.4 Devegetation Construction of the proposed Edmonds Crossing would likely result in the loss of additional upland riparian vegetation around the southern portion of the marsh complex (Appendix A, plate 11, 12, and 15). This area includes some of the largest trees on the site and several remaining dead trees and snags, all which serve as perching, nesting and foraging habitat for bald eagles, Great blue heron, pileated woodpeckers, and many of the song birds identified utilizing the site. In addition, the newly reestablished heron nesting Packet Page 275 of 409 14 area would likely be more exposed to construction and operational disturbances caused by the ferry terminal. 5.5 Aesthetics/View corridors The view of the marsh, shoreline and surrounding Sound are unparalleled from the Point Edwards condominiums. Public walkways around the North side of the Edmonds marsh afford a natural setting to view wildlife in the marsh with a backdrop of riparian trees. Parking structures and loading lanes for the proposed ferry terminal would disrupt both these. Views from Marina Beach offshore are currently disrupted by the Unocal pier, which is being removed by WSDOT. Replacing that pier with a much larger structure and the ferry itself will largely preclude any offshore viewing from Marina Beach while the ferry is in terminal. 5.6 Inability to expand marsh complex The ferry terminal relocation would prevent any natural expansion of the Edmonds marsh due to sea level rise. Sea level rise projections for Puget Sound suggest many areas currently at sea level will expand inland so long as there is ample room to do so. In the case where expansion is not possible, adjacent intertidal areas will become further submerged losing their marsh characteristics. In addition, flood stage events within Willow creek could not be accommodated with the current and planned constriction to the marsh outlet to Puget Sound. 5.7 Reduced access and recreation Marina beach is a beloved recreational amenity for the citizens of Edmonds and visitors. Placing a ferry terminal in the midst of this beach would disrupt that current use. Dangerous currents from docking ferries would preclude swimming and the frequent disturbance would limit the wildlife use of the beach, which visitors currently enjoy. Packet Page 276 of 409 15 6.0 Initial feasibility for wetland/nearshore restoration at creek mouth, tank farm and Marina Beach complex The entire restoration plan, along with any other redevelopment proposal for the Edmonds waterfront, must be considered within the context of global warming induced sea level rise. The University of Washington Climate Impacts Group predicts upwards to one meter of sea level rise in Central Puget Sound between now and 2100. The phenomenon is expected to accelerate over time with the most severe rises occurring in the latter half of the century. That means that much of the current Edmonds waterfront is at risk of periodic inundation during storm conditions and these flooding events should become more frequent over time. Research conducted by the Skagit River Systems Cooperative suggests that restoration of coastal estuary features along the shoreline will become increasingly necessary to allow eroding upland sediments to deposit along shorelines and build elevation to keep pace with the rising sea level. This concept of shoreline resilience is the basis for the restoration proposal. Some level of daylighting of Willow Creek has already been proposed by the WSDOT mitigation plan for Edmonds Crossing (figure 9). However, that plan generally removes fill and culverts along the creek’s current, already altered path and does not allow for any natural meandering that is likely to occur with increased tidal and freshwater flow. We propose a more ambitious realignment plan that more closely follows the existing contours of the site and a minimization of contact with surface utilities like the railroad tracks and streets. The general design for this restoration project will be to divert the main flow of Willow Creek downstream from the existing Edmonds marsh through the restored marsh on the Unocal remediation site to the South and continue that new channel southward along the base of the bluff until a perpendicular crossing under the railroad can be accomplished beyond the Marina Beach parking lot. The new creek channel would then open up onto Marina Beach at the southern end where delta sediments can be added to the beach to restore a barrier estuary structure that is more historically consistent with the type of shoreline Edmonds once had, and one that is significantly more resilient to sea level rise than the one that exists there now (figure 8). The orientation and cross section of the opening will be designed to improve tidal reconnection to Edmonds Marsh. 6.1 Cost estimates Large-scale projects such as the daylighting of Willow Creek are often phased to allow ample time for scoping and securing funding. Typically, projects are phased in the following sections: Phase 1- scoping through full design and adaptive management plan; Phase 2- public outreach and involvement; Phase 3- permitting and bid plans; Phase 4- contractor selection, construction, and monitoring; Phase 5- maintenance and stewardship. Cost estimates for other proposed restoration actions were not included at this time, and although daylighting of Willow Creek could be a stand-alone project, any or all of the other proposed projects could be added to project feasibility and design as well. Cost estimates would, of course, need to be adjusted to reflect such actions. Packet Page 277 of 409 16 Costs were estimated for the initial phases of the proposed restoration actions to completely daylight Willow Creek in a configuration similar to that in figure 8. These estimates are based on similar projects currently planned and funded in Puget Sound, although Willow Creek daylighting would be considerably larger than other projects done to date. These estimated costs cover phases 1-3 described above and do not include estimates of construction or post-restoration monitoring and maintenance. A complete feasibility study and 30% design would be necessary to accurately describe the final construction costs. A broad estimate that incorporates the need for a large culvert or trestle under BNSF railroad to daylight the creek, would be in the range of $1 to $2 million. Willow Creek daylighting Phase 1 through 3 cost estimates: Summary Estimated Costs Tasks Total Cost Personnel Travel Equipment Supplies Contractual Scope of Feasibility Study $3,100 $3,000 $100 Conceptual design and feasibility study $237,300 $35,000 $300 $2,000 $200,000 Final project, scope, design, and budget $50,300 $10,000 $300 $40,000 Design monitoring and adaptive management plan $5,000 $500 $2,000 Permitting $52,000 $2,000 $50,000 Complete bid plans and specifications $9,000 $9,000 Public Outreach Planning $13,000 $10,000 $3,000 Public Outreach and Involvement $45,000 $25,000 $20,000 TOTAL $417,200 $99,000 $1,200 $2,000 $2,000 $313,000 6.2 Technical barriers Technical barriers to the restoration design will include: • Ecology sign-off that the remediated Unocal site would pose no further threat to environmental toxicity if returned to intertidal marsh conditions. WSDOT plans to cap the site with concrete paving might be considered more stable from the standpoint of latent toxics mobility. Packet Page 278 of 409 17 • Hydrologic study to confirm excavation of a new Willow Creek outlet at the designed location would not significantly change the flooding risk for Burlington Northern Railroad or Port of Edmonds infrastructure beyond what would be expected due to anticipated sea level rise. 6.3 Timing Technical elements of feasibility can be built into a feasibility project scope and submitted for funding to restoration funding sources within the next year. Actual timing for restoration will be contingent on overcoming institutional barriers, permitting and funding. Based on projects with similar design elsewhere in the Sound, we would expect a one to two year timeframe for actual construction. Post construction stewardship should be considered an ongoing task for at least 10 years to monitor establishment of the new tidal regime and channel configuration, behavior of the site during high tides and storm outflow events and the establishment of native intertidal and riparian vegetation. People for Puget Sound’s Sound Stewardship Program is specifically suited to this task. 6.4 Institutional barriers Washington Department of Transportation has indicated a significant departure from the 2004 Environmental Impact Statement on Edmonds Crossing due to agency budget constraints and larger ferry system priorities. Preliminary discussions with WSDOT have not indicated a willingness to abandon plans for Edmonds Crossing as proposed but the EIS is no longer available on the department’s web site and project staff are willing to consider alternatives so long as broader transportation goals such as completion of a multi-modal transportation hub along the Edmonds waterfront can be accomplished ultimately. Other stakeholders, discussed in more detail later in this report, are encouraged by the opportunity to consider alternative restoration and redevelopment designs for the Edmonds waterfront. Increasing estuarine rearing capacity for juvenile salmon is broadly supported by both local and regional salmon recovery plans and the Puget Sound Nearshore Ecosystem Restoration Project is likely to recommend restoration of remnant barrier estuaries within this sub-basin of Puget Sound in their comprehensive nearshore restoration portfolio. The institution identified to be the largest potential obstacle to this proposal may be the City of Edmonds. While confidential conversations with staff in various departments suggests a willingness to cooperate with People For Puget Sound, official statements from city leadership signal a clear preference for the established waterfront redevelopment plan that includes the WSDOT 2004 proposal. People for Puget Sound has not engaged directly with city leaders yet but is prepared to convene a meeting between the City, WSDOT and Ecology to discuss this proposal and other alternatives once this report has been distributed. Contingent upon approval from the city, WSDOT and Ecology to move forward, engagement with Burlington Northern railroad will need to occur on any proposed Packet Page 279 of 409 18 changes to existing operations to accommodate the stream realignment and the potential for a pedestrian overpass from the marsh to Marina Beach. Packet Page 280 of 409 19 7.0 Conceptual alternative to the preferred ferry terminal expansion Many Edmonds citizens have been actively engaged in the public process surrounding the proposed Edmonds Crossing project and redevelopment of downtown Edmonds, including the current ferry terminal and Brackett’s Landing, business corridors around Main Street and Admiral Way, Skippy’s site, Old Safeway site, Harbor Square, and the areas concerned in the proposed ferry terminal ‘Edmonds’s Crossing’ - UNOCAL/Chevron cleanup site, Edmonds Marsh, marina, Marina Beach Park and the off-leash dog park area. People For Puget Sound recognizes that many concerned individuals have also been considering alternatives to the “preferred alternative” presented by DOT and City of Edmonds (figures 9 and 10) and drew on their ideas for this proposed conceptual alternative. These alternatives are presented with the understanding the additional feasibility and scoping would need to be conducted in concert with citizens’ groups, City and Port officials, and experienced, innovative planners and consultants with a desire to help citizens enhance their communities into healthy, vibrant, accessible and environmentally superior urban centers for living, working and playing. 7.1 Recreation/Public Access • Expand and enhance walkway/boardwalk paths and viewing areas around the saltwater marsh/wildlife sanctuary and Willow Creek Hatchery (figure 8) • Connect Point Edwards to marsh, hatchery and beach areas via walkway/boardwalk paths (figure 8). • Improve pedestrian safety & access to waterfront areas with elevated walkways over railroad tracks (figure 8). • Provide seamless pedestrian walkways from downtown shopping to new multi- use community space to entire waterfront, including marsh, hatchery and beach areas. • Support efforts of Edmonds Backyard Wildlife Habitat and Native Plant Society and other local partners to install native plant demonstration garden at Willow Creek hatchery including invasive species removal. 7.2 Transportation • Utilize existing developed properties (Antique Mall, Skippers, Old Safeway site) for transit multi-level parking area and multi-use facility. • Support expansion/terminal improvements of Sound Transit/BNSF. • Re-route ferry and train traffic to avoid Main Street; reconfigure traffic patterns to allow for through access to waterfront areas. • Provide easier & safer pedestrian access to ferry, train, bus & waterfront areas; possibly by installing elevated pedestrian walkways over railroad tracks. • Provide seamless pedestrian walkways connecting downtown, transportation stations, marsh, hatchery, beach areas and waterfront. Packet Page 281 of 409 20 7.3 Economy and Community • Utilize existing developed properties to create multi-use facility with parking for transit, community areas and meeting space, small retail stores, possibly targeted at commuters, public art, fountains, sculptures, space for farmer’s market, etc. • Provide easy access along entire corridor from downtown shopping to multi-use facility to waterfront restaurants, businesses & rec. areas. 7.4 Habitat Protection and Enhancement • Expand the saltwater marsh/wildlife sanctuary to include and reconnect with Unocal cleanup site; possible donation of additional land to the City (figure 8). • Daylight Willow Creek along its historic footprint, where feasible (figure 8). • Protect all habitat areas from any further development. Packet Page 282 of 409 21 8.0 Level of WSDOT commitment to Edmonds Crossing project WSDOT Ferries Division recently released its long-range plan that has a 22-year projection. The plan indicates that major terminal investments are proposed for three terminals, including Edmonds at an estimated cost of $26.1 million (DOT, 2008). The plan goes on to state that this amount assumes the terminal will remain in its current location, and the “allowance is included to improve multi-modal connections.” Despite this statement, WSDOT began removal of the Unocal pier in January 2009. Removal of the Unocal pier was identified in the Edmonds Crossing Environmental Impact Statement as a mitigation action for the ferry terminal relocation (WSDOT, 2004), and Ecology suggests that this action will be honored as credit for WSDOT future mitigation needs in the area. In addition, WSDOT continues to move forward with the purchase and transfer of the Unocal/Chevron property, also known as the lower yard and the area identified as the site for the Edmonds Crossing multi-modal ferry terminal (WSDOT, 2004). It is difficult, at this point, to determine the level of commitment of WSDOT and WSF to the Edmonds Crossing project. 9.0 Facilitation of community outreach People For Puget Sound staff began the process of building a community outreach network to identify concerns and actions of Edmonds elected officials, citizens and community groups. Appendix C provides a full list of contacts made and notes on what was discussed. Through this process, People For Puget Sound has entered into a partnership with several local citizens groups to support early restoration actions in and around Edmonds Marsh and Willow Creek hatchery. This report will also be shared with those partners, and others, as a framework to continue discussions about concern over the Edmonds Crossing project, protections and restoration of Edmonds Marsh and Willow Creek, and transportation alternatives that would continue to enhance the unique nature of downtown Edmonds, while safely and efficiently moving people around Edmonds and to destinations beyond. Throughout this project, People For Puget Sound staff connected with many citizens who were concerned about the proposed Edmonds Crossing, for various reasons. Staff also reviewed City of Edmonds and Port of Edmonds documents concerning the marsh and ferry project, and all available minutes from past public meetings that discussed the ferry project or the restructuring of downtown Edmonds. Below is a condensed list showing the results of that effort. Results of social outreach research regarding Edmonds Crossing Project: General: • Concern regarding impacts/loss of use for Marina Beach park- consistently heard from locals, but study identified that a user survey is needed Packet Page 283 of 409 22 • Concern over impacts/loss of use for off leash dog park (OLAE); OLAE prepared to gather signatures in opposition; 150 members; park used by City Council member Bernheim • Citizen interest in availability/future of underused developed land near existing ferry terminal (old Skipper’s, Safeway and Antique Mall properties) • Sound Transit to improve Edmonds Station in current location; scheduled to start Fall 2008 and continue until Summer 2009- indication of commitment to current local agreement Public meetings: • Public comments recorded during Alliance of Citizens for Edmonds (ACE) public meetings regarding the redevelopment of the waterfront area (Appendix D): o “marsh and fish hatchery should remain city property, should not be impacted at all by the proposed development and these areas should become more accessible to the public” o “Reports of ‘traffic congestion’ caused by the current terminal location are greatly exaggerated” o “have a multi-modal system already… don’t need to develop a new” one; easy walking exists now between the ferry, train, bus o “it is unnecessary to move the ferry terminal” Public documents/City and Port plans • Excerpt from City of Edmonds project description for Edmonds Marsh/Hatchery Improvements: o “the Edmonds Marsh is a unique urban salt and fresh water marsh with abundant habitat / wildlife species. It is a designated and protected bird sanctuary. Protection is vital.” • Excerpt from Port of Edmonds Master Plan (6/27/05): o The Edmonds Marsh “provides unique habitat and wildlife viewing opportunities as a result of the confluence of saltwater and freshwater environments. Preliminary discussions have taken place regarding the possibility of a Cultural and Interpretive Center in the vicinity of the marsh area and Deer Creek Hatchery.” o “Any development on Port property will take into consideration: public access to the waterfront, provision for a greenbelt and other landscaped areas, and view corridors from walkways and Admiral Way.” o “It is part of the Port’s vision to expand this connection along the marsh to the fish hatchery. The vision also includes a Cultural and Interpretive Center highlighting the marsh and marine environment in partnership with the City of Edmonds, Edmonds Community College and others. The Port will work with the City of Edmonds to encourage public access from the uplands Point Edwards, across the railroad tracks, to the waterfront.” • Port of Edmonds Strategic Plan (4/25/05): o Partner with City of Edmonds, Town of Woodway and Edmonds CC to explore feasibility of building a wetlands environmental interpretive center o Work with city and others to develop pedestrian/bike overpass over RR tracks Packet Page 284 of 409 23 10.0 Future Recommendations People For Puget Sound recommends the following actions to work with the Edmonds community and interested parties to ensure the protection of Edmonds Marsh and surrounding habitats, engage restoration efforts in and adjacent to the marsh, and work toward a cohesive network of constituents who support these stated efforts. • Continue to work with WSDOT, City and Port to determine level of commitment to the proposed Edmonds Crossing project over time. • Stay involved in development of comprehensive environmental master plan for Edmonds Marsh that is now being pursued by the City in coordination with the Engineering Department to address City-wide drainage issues (Brian McIntosh, City of Edmonds Parks and Recreation Director, pers comm.) • Provide leadership to achieve community cohesion: bring together all interested parties and incorporate all their great ideas and plans into one comprehensive, overall vision and plan (parties: City, Port, ACE, OLAE, Willow Creek hatchery, Pilchuck Audubon, Edmonds Backyard Wildlife Habitat Project, Sustainable Edmonds, interested/concerned citizens, etc. • Utilize this plan to embolden City Council and possible future mayors • Organize citizens to testify at WSDOT, City and Port public meetings, working from the perspective of the plan • Continued exposure at various community meetings (Point Edwards homeowners board, OLAE, WSF, Willow Creek Hatchery meeting, EBWH, etc.) • Continue to build partnerships with local groups for protection and restoration efforts in and adjacent to Edmonds Marsh Packet Page 285 of 409 24 11.0 References Anderson Consulting. 2004.

THE GOAL IS TO ENGAGE OUR CITIZENS, ATTRACT VISITORS, AND INCREASE REVENUE. We propose the following be considered: Utilize an integrated and progressive approach throughout the sites (Edmonds Marsh, Port of Edmonds, DOT, Antique Mall and Skippers properties) Enhance connectivity to the site Trolleys /vans /electrically powered vehicles to and from all Edmonds neighborhoods (Westgate, Perrinville, 5 Corners, Firdale, etc.) Shuttle from the Edmonds downtown and the Cultural Arts corridor to the site Pedestrian / bicycle connections including the following: Bridge over state highway 104 connecting City Park to the Edmonds Marsh Overpass crossing Dayton Street connecting the Port of Edmonds to the Antique Mall site Connection between the senior center and the Antique Mall site Connection to the continuous shoreline walkway (as described in the City of Edmonds Parks, Recreation and Open space Plan of 2008) Provide ample covered outdoor/indoor areas to maximize use throughout the year Adhere to environmental principles Day lighted creek(s) partially or completely covered and redirected into pipes to alleviate flooding and provide a passageway for fish Use of native vegetation Green roofs / energy efficient design Walkways throughout the site (ADA compliant). Maximize the use of pervious paving materials to allow water to soak back into the ground. The uses of the site should complement, not compete with, the existing downtown in order to ensure the viability of the shops in downtown Edmonds. Potential land uses by site: Antique Mall / Skippers / DOT Build to current height limits Historical museum(s): Native American, milling / logging, railroad Market place (covered and open air options) with spaces for produce and other food vendors, small scale shops, artisan studios Cafes and bistros Dinner theatre Outdoor theatre or stage Seating, tables, and gathering areas throughout Day lighted creek Port of Edmonds Hotel (comparable to the older section of Whistler) Parking garage Apartments / condominiums (not mixed use) Retail area / grocery store, serving boaters Packet Page 315 of 409 ACQUIRING THE PROPERTY IS THE BEST OPTION ACE CONTINUES TO RECOMMEND THAT THE CITY PURCHASE THE SKIPPERS AND ANTIQUE MALL PROPERTIES FROM THE PRIVATE OWNERS. WHY? This property is key near-waterfront property that should be used to develop attractions that will draw people into Edmonds to visit, explore, shop, eat, enjoy City ownership means City control of what is built there City ownership facilitates public involvement in the design and decision-making process City can engage a first class developer and establish public/private partnerships to develop plans for the property consistent with what the City and the citizens want and with the right public use / revenue generating mix Private owners are primarily profit driven the plan presented to the public last summer demonstrates that this may not be in the best interests of the City and its citizens Immediate appraisals will establish real values for the privately owned properties Funding options increase with City ownership and with development of public amenities rather than private mixed use features Bond issue can be supplemented by grants for park, environmental and other public amenities ACE is currently researching alternate funding resources Certain development options related to arts and history could benefit from private donations It may be advantageous to expanded a bond issue to include other acquisitions and capital items, thus solving other pending financial needs and broadening the base of support. Possible land swaps with private owners could be explored as a secondary means of acquisition, though it may not be a desirable alternative. Strong leadership is needed from Council to make this work Dream the possibilities, share the excitement Put together a strong team of citizens / business people / city leaders to plan and direct the design and redevelopment effort Need cooperative effort between city staff, parks and recreation, cultural, arts in developing plans Citizen participation Poll the citizens re bond issue but provide concepts and visuals of what some of the possibilities are in advance Duplicate and capitalize on the excitement generated by the EWHS scale models and their presentation It is important that financial Money for acquisition comes from Capital Funds, not General Fund There is some cash available in Fund 126 and others that may be adequate to acquire the Skippers parcel This is not a $40 million deal Port and DO T own much of that value and the private owners are referencing values that are clearly overstated ACE is not proposing that all property be developed as parks it can and should be a mix of retail, restaurants, shops, arts, public space and low rise residential (see visions) Projections by private owners need to be analyzed, explained and questioned, and viewed over time to understand the real impact on the General Fund and other funds. A cost/benefit analysis should be required. This project does not make or break the City financially financial issues require a much broader analysis and approach to solve Packet Page 316 of 409 Packet Page 317 of 409 Packet Page 318 of 409 Packet Page 319 of 409 Packet Page 320 of 409 Packet Page 321 of 409 1 ACE APRIL 1, 2008 PRESENTATION TO COUNCIL JOHN REED My name is John Reed. My wife Gretchen and I have lived in Edmonds for 30 years. I was a member of the CG33 group that worked on this subject last summer. This presentation is being made on behalf of The Alliance of Citizens for Edmonds (ACE). We appreciate this opportunity to share our ideas with you about redevelopment of the Skippers / Antique Mall / Harbor Square properties. In September last year, the property owners presented four increasingly taller versions of an urban village concept. It was clear immediately that many citizens were not happy with the . Potential building heights were clearly viewed as excessive, even at 4-6 stories. Concerns were also raised about the lack of open space, who would (and would not) be drawn to the area, competition with the existing downtown merchants for business, density, and traffic issues, just to mention a few. Ace shared many of these concerns, and we sent you a letter in December expressing them. We asked then that you explore city acquisition of the privately owned parcels, and consider revisions to the comprehensive plan that more clearly define what would best benefit the community on these properties. In preparation for this presentation tonight, we sponsored two special meetings last month to discuss redevelopment ideas. Those meetings were each attended by approximately 25 persons and 34 different individuals. Dick van Hollebeke faciliated these meetings. Dick operates a financial services business in town, is a long time member of the Chamber of Commerce and a former Edmonds city council member. He is chairman of the board of trustees of Edmonds Community College. Finally, he was a member of the CG33 group that worked on this project last summer. Dick will now share information from our March meetings with you. DICK VANHOLLEBEKE My comments will address two perspectives. Packet Page 322 of 409 2 First, as a the 33 people who were asked to guide the design of the combined subject properties, and secondly as a person who facilitated two meetings of the Alliance of Citizens for Edmonds, or ACE. These meetings were focused exclusively on those same properties, in an effort to make recommendations to the City Council on viable options available to the City on how this property could be developed. up to be comprised of people I would also like to commend Chris Keuss, the executive director of the Port of Edmonds, for the excellent job he did in conducting public meetings regarding the proposed development. There is a detailed 43-page summary of public I am also a long time member of the Edmonds Chamber of Commerce. I believe the two citizen groups are very much in sync with the ideas and concerns of the Chamber. The ACE group had four people, including myself, who were also part of the Citizens Group of 33. They have asked In a word: disappointment . The plans presented a big, bigger, and biggest approach. We were told that taller buildings would allow the design to afford wider pedestrian promenades between the building structures and also, would make it economically feasible to have pedestrian overpasses from the parking garage rooftop to the beach area. Many of the ideas, such as creating a gathering spot and open green spaces, were glossed over as not practical for this site. The ACE group spent several hours discussing what the y wanted to propose, and how to overcome the obstacles to achieving those proposals. All persons in attendance were afforded an opportunity to share their ideas. The Council has been given a handout that lists a summary of suggestions and concerns from those meetings. They are listed alphabetically, and not in order of priority. Some of the highlights include #1 8: central m #2. Connections: Connect to downtown and adjoining areas; explore the possibility of electrically powered vehicles making a loop through the future waterfront park, downtown and the Arts Center; walking trails throughout the waterfront park with pedestrian bridges over the RR tracks. and rec cultural plan, with focus on economics and health. Potential income. #4. Environment: Build green. All buildings on this site, museums, small cafes, booths for vendors, studios for artists should be built in line with LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design; walkways constructed with pervious materials, not paved. #5. Parking: Parking garage with green roof elements. Packet Page 323 of 409 3 mail and newspaper. Solicit public opinion. #7. Views: Put emphasis on pedestrian corridors. #8. Concerns: height and density; short- align with the will of the citizens of Edmonds. Page 4 We recognize that the property owners have rights, and among those rights is the expectation of a reasonable profit on their investment. But it is important to note that ove r 75% of the prope rty in this are a of conce rn is c urre ntly public ly he ld by a combination of the City, the Port, and the De partme nt of Transportation. As a former member of the Edmonds City Council, I recognize the challenge and opportunity that developing this proposed area represents. You as a council are in a unique place to act on creating something special that will impact our city and its citizens for generations to come. At the conclusion of the last ACE meeting, there was unanimous agreement that the City should acquire or control those properties that are now privately owned. successful public-private development projects, totaling over $750 million dollars. Every completed project has been delivered on schedule or early and at budget or under budget. Bill lives in Edmonds and is offering his services, free of charge, to assist City staff in several ways, which he will explain. Bill Angle . BILL ANGLE G or, Citizens: is a truly important City issue and the direction we pursue will impact our downtown / waterfront area for the next 50 to 100 years. My Firs t Point: The r e s hould be no rush to judgme nt on this issu e , existing land use and zoning on the parcels in question; For the last 10 or 12 years there has been an assumption that Edmonds Crossing / moving the Ferry Terminal was Based on the failure of our Transportation Initiative last fall, Edmonds Crossing is not coming anytime soon; if ever! The Ferry System is clearly in disarray; has real $$ troubles; and so is even further away from the required $150 million; ee k, the old models may be challenged in terms of how many cars the system ultimately carries in light of the new economic realities ($4.00 / gallon gas; how about $7:00 / gallon gas? and rising); Packet Page 324 of 409 4 Next, there has been no formal application for a redevelopment of the properties; What that TELLS ME is that the economics for redevelopment of the current sites DOES NOT WORK; If the economics did work, redevelopment of those properties WOULD HAVE HAPPENED; Nothing is likely to occur quickly as we continu so there is no need to rush our judgment; we have all the time we need TO DO THIS THING RIGHT! My Second Point: I have been quite concerned about the failure in public discourse to distinguish a CONTRACT REZONE from a plain old vanilla REZONE; Bac king up: This City owes the c urre nt owne r ship NOTHING but a fair ability to de ve lop the ir prope rties in light of c urre nt land use and zoning. If the c urrent prope rty owne r s made unwise investme nt decisions, that is unfortunate for the m . But the City and its c itize ns have no obligation whate v e r to e nhance the value from this City Counc il by way of a contrac t r e zon e . So what is a Contract Rezone? -private approach to the entitlement & zoning elements of a piece of property and last Tuesday Mr. Gregg summarized his intended approach to a contract rezone effort on the and he did a very good job; In contrast, the Antique Mall owner has talked contract rezone, but insofar as I can tell, he is only after a basic rezone to enhance the value of his property; Now, in my opinion, a contract rezone requires: A high quality developer in control of a property; A sp ecific de ve lopme nt plan that has arisen out of a public process and that includes: Representational & Schematic Drawings; A Financing plan that is not only achievable but in place; A Schedule for development and construction; A Formal Contract requiring performance within a time certain What do we have? A representation to attempt a platinum LEEDs building (very unlikely) No drawings No financing No schedule Most important, a local developer who has demonstrated his willingness to sue this City of Edmonds as an element of his business strategy; What does this mean? The City must e x e r c ise gre at c are in its negotiations re lating to any Contrac t R e zone process ; The City must have a writte n protoc ol in place, signed by both the City and the developer, that outlines Packet Page 325 of 409 5 The City cannot afford to get crosswise with itself administratively: internally / planning commission / City Council; settlement; I hereby offer my services to City staff , free of charge, to prepare a fair and disciplined written protocol; Third Point: Value of the re al prope rty; should the City c onside r ac quiring? A few minutes ago I noted that there has been no serious application for redevelopment of these properties; The owner of the Antique Mall has argued for years that the zoning on its property is the limiting factor; And as a result, the planning exercise last summer and fall b egan with ass umptions about the value of the land e land values; properties; The City must be concerne d not with the value of the land but with how it is to be de v e lope d; In my opinion, the most likely way for the City to actually achieve what it wants from these properties is to get control or acquire these properties; This was the direction used by the City of Kent and the City of Burien; I believe most planners / redevelopment authorities would say this approach is the b est prac tice if the community has the political support and the money; Example: Kent has a fabulous new Kent Commons; Example: Burien is in the process of creating a new Burien Commons; If the City of Edmonds really wants to make absolutely sure that in the long run these properties are developed to the long term benefit of Edmonds citizens, then ownership is the logical solution; Finally, I heard criticism that We are a very well to do little town; our downtown has a fabulous sense of place and deserves continued support to keep it fabulous all the way to the water; This is pure ly a matte r of politic al will; Packet Page 326 of 409 6 tique Mall property, there is no considering its constraints; 100% debt; 5.5% interest; 25 years; = $84,000 per year, rounded Equivalent to one (1) full time employee Moreover, this obligation only lasts until the City puts the developed, that obligation will likely diminish or disappear; so the City is motivated to in fact, get it It should be viewed as an interim carrying cost or bridge financing; With that, I would like to turn the microphone back to John Reed. REED CLOSING ( NOT ALLOWED SO COPIED AND PROVIDED IN WRITING TO COUNCIL) Thank you Dic k and Bill. So th e ques tion is, whe r e do w e go from h e r e? There are two key words that we urge you to keep in mind as you decide what to do next proactive, and vision. Both are critical to this process. Proactive does not mean waiting for the private property owners to come to the city with plans, rezone and permit applications. Based on the input received at our recent meetings, ACE recommends you consider the following steps: 1. Direct the finance department to obtain appraisals of the privately-owned properties north of Dayton, and to prepare a report on various ways that the city might purchase or otherwise acquire those properties and thus control their redevelopment. Property owned by the port might be useful in facilitating those acquisitions. 2. Form a work group including citizens, downtown business owners and downtown property owners, to be led by a qualified independent consultant, to discuss what uses would best benefit the community and the city in the long term. That group should be required to immediately obtain and seriously consider input from a large segment of the public as part of its process. 3. As these first two steps are carried out, send a clear message as a council to the existing property owners that the current zoning for the properties will be maintained. t of these properties needs to be managed proactively, not reactively. It must reflect what is best for the community. Best does Packet Page 327 of 409 7 not mean what is the most profitable for private property owners. Nor does it necessarily mean what will generate the most immediate revenue for the city. We have a chance here to do something that will benefit the city and the community far into the future. We believe there is enough common ground among the stakeholders for a process like the one described above to succeed. We must work together to get this right. We all need to be visionaries. Thank you again for the opportunity to present our ideas to you. Packet Page 328 of 409 1 THE ALLIANCE OF CITIZENS FOR EDMONDS (ACE) REDEVELOPMENT OF HARBOR SQUARE , OLD SAFEWAY AND SKIPPERS PROPERTIES ADJACENT TO THE WATERFRONT REPORT ON OPEN HOUSE COMMENTS JUNE 2007 Packet Page 329 of 409 2 Forward In late 2006, following two joint public meetings between the City Council and the Port of Edmonds (with participation by a representative of a major private property owner), a committee consisting of Port Commission representatives, private owners of the Old Safeway and Skippers properties, and Mayor Gary Haakenson and Councilmember Ron Wambolt as City representatives, was formed to discuss redevelopment of the Harbor Square, Old Safeway and Skippers properties. This committee has been meeting regularly in private and has not thus far disclosed any specific information from their meetings to the public. At several of its regular monthly meetings, ACE discussed its disappointment that initial public input was not sought by this private committee or by the City or by the Port. ACE has always understood that at some point in the process public input would be sought. We were told that this would come after the private group developed alternatives that would be presented to the public for comment. We thought ideas and comments of the citizens should be sought before the property owners decided on their alternatives. At our May 2007 meeting, we discussed our own ideas in general terms and decided to provide an opportunity for input on the redevelopment area through a series of loosely structured open houses that were held in June 2007. Our goal was NOT to try to tell the private property owners what to do or not to do with their property it was to generate a broad spectrum of ideas for those owners to consider as they developed their own plans for public comments. ACE wanted to be proactive, not reactive. comments made by those who came. We were pleased that input was received from a diverse group of citizens, some of whom attended more than one of the open houses. We provided a list of areas of discussion and photo-collages showing alternative possibilities superimposed on the development areas. These tools were not intended to or used to support particular positions. They were designed to generate comments some of the photos are obviously unrealistic or undesirable alternatives. Packet Page 330 of 409 3 We also had the Waterfront portion of the current City Comprehensive Plan and the 1994 Planning Board Recommendations Draft Downtown Waterfront Plan available for review by participants. This report includes a Summary of Comments, a list of the meetings and participants, and finally a detailed restatement of the comments, transcribed as closely as possible. We have also attached the list of discussion areas used to generate discussion. We are providing this material to the private committee for their use as they continue their work on redevelopment options, to those who attended the open houses and to others we believe might be interested. The private committee has recently selected a 35- committee to provide input. We hope that these ideas will be shared with this new committee as well.

Not all of the points made in this de t ail are inc luded in the summary above . Any inaccurac i es are unint ended and the responsibility of ACE.) Festivals: The recent Port Waterfront Festival showed that pedestrians, cars, and trains will cause festivals are very important to attracting visitors to Edmonds. Rick Steves, for example, brings tons of people to town. Public Input: There should be plenty of public input on project design and project The public input should focus on just a few major issues of public interest, otherwise the e Port, the City, and the private property owners together: how did they allocate themselves money to get started? We need a public and open process for issues that are of major impact on Edmonds residents. You need to trust the public process, because if involving the public in the right kind of way. How can there already have been $70,000 of public money spent without any public hearings or without public input? What announcement has there been about how the public money has already been spent? What kind of competitive bidding has there been for expenditure of public funds already? t of hindsight and experience, can make many excellent suggestions or observations. We need meetings of people to bring in new ideas. We need to get a lot more information about what local customers want, we also need input from local merchants, who want to attract customers to the existing downtown from any waterfront development. Parking: There is a need for public parking. Parking is now too sparse in downtown Edmonds. There is a need for affordable parking in the waterfront area. The Edmonds Center for the Arts is already planning a 45-foot, multi-level parking garage, so there will be considerable parking available there anyway. There is a lack of disabled parking spaces in the City. Pedestrian Access: There is a need for pedestrian access from the development area across the railroad tracks to the waterfront. Packet Page 334 of 409 7 and public spaces. There should be lots of benches. There should be many more park benches. Promenades and walkways along the railroad tracks and the Port/Marina properties are good. Underground tunnels under the railroad tracks are superior to over the tracks pedestrian bridges. During the recent waterfront festival, having a pedestrian bus only increased the congestion. There has not been adequate thought to how to accommodate people, pedestrians, public transportation, and autos. Relationship to existing downtown area to the rest of downtown Edmonds. There should be a shuttle all the time from the waterfront to the downtown area. There should be some sort of trolley, or tram, or courtesy transport, either that runs often and regularly, or is readily on demand, especially for older people. There should be a trolley to connect the new development area with the existing downtown, the way there used to be in the late 80s or early 90s. They could be electric, and they could be used as an incentive if provided by the developers in return for increased development privileges. Transportation is a special concern within the city of Edmonds and this project could be used as a focal point to improve traffic circulation through the city. Walking between downtown and the waterfront area is too difficult for the more elderly residents of Edmonds so there should be some type of local, frequent, public transportation that moves people all the time between the waterfront area and downtown somehow. There should be a pedestrian promenade around the Harbor area any new development at the old Safeway property, we need to consider what kind of have in order to move people to and from the old downtown to and from the waterfront park areas. Moving people from the Port recreational facilities through the Safeway property to the existing downtown should be a top priority. The development area separates the waterfront from the rest of downtown: how will this property be developed to connect old downtown to the waterfront? The average shopper needs to be entertained by something every 12 seconds; the way things are now, there is not any connection between the new development area and the existing downtown shopping district. Somehow, we need to keep shoppers and pedestrians entertained downtown retail area. Having an economic development director was good because she tried to find out what the local merchants really wanted. Right now there is nothing to draw people from the new development area to the existing downtown retail shopping area. People will not be visiting both the existing downtown and the new development area and this will be bad for the existing downtown. We want to have a vibrant downtown. Packet Page 335 of 409 8 The existing ferry holding lanes at Main Street and Hwy 104 should become a pedestrian park, but that will never happen; instead, there will just be more car traffic through downtown getting on and off the ferry at the new terminal location. It may be impossible to have a coherent discussion of the new development ideas. There has never been enough exploration of all the different impacts this development may We need to be getting lots of business from people coming across on the ferries. Impact on the Marsh and Fish Hatchery: The marsh and fish hatchery should remain City property, should not be impacted at all by the proposed development, and these areas should become more accessible to the public. The New Ferry Terminal: It is not clear where the road to the new ferry terminal will go and how the new ferry terminal will be connected to auto traffic and to the rest of downtown. Is moving the ferry inevitable or not? Will there be a new ferry terminal? How can the City help plan for development in the new development area without knowing whether or not the ferry terminal will move in the future? We have a multi-modal system already, right now: the ferry, the train, and the bus service are already within easy walking d multi-modal facility. Moving the ferry terminal to Point Edwards would accommodate 6 to 8 jumbo ferries that can carry up to 800 autos each. This would open Edmonds to a flood of cars, which is the aim of the multi-modal facility: Edmonds should decide whether it wants to have more and more cars running through it. The Current Ferry Terminal: It is unnecessary to move the ferry terminal: reports of one has been killed at the current crossing, traffic moves through the area smoothly and safely throughout the day whether or not the ferry is loading or unloading. If we keep the ferry terminal where it already is, we could build a parking garage on top of the ferry holding lanes, with public parkland on the top floor, overlooking the waterfront. The Main Street area has been allowed by the City to deteriorate, and moving the ferry terminal to Point Edwards would destroy Marina Park and would result in a huge, unwanted central transportation hub. We should maintain the current ferry terminal location, which is already an appropriate size. Packet Page 336 of 409 9 Conditions on Development in the new development area: Can there be incentives given to the property owners of the new development area, like tax exemption, for them to provide benefits to the public? Developers in the new development area should be required to give something to the people who live here in return for the privilege of expanding development options beyond what is already permitted in the new development area. We should consider more flexibility in traffic management, like one way streets for example (but one way streets have been shown to be a disaster for retail stores). Can we close some of the streets to auto traffic? Edmonds Lake Oswego, OR is a good illustration of what Edmonds could be: Millenium Plaza there has a beautiful bluff overlooking a beautiful view. Because Edmonds is not a wealthy community, we should look at Lake Oswego as an example of good development. Instead, we seem to be trying to emulate Mill Creek, which is not a good example. Climate change is becoming a big issue in the Puget Sound area and it should be part of the consideration of any new development, especially major development. about climate change. Ten years is all we have to make the difference we need to make, and they need to be big changes. Many local governments and neighborhood activists are getting involved in this issue. There should be a comprehensive plan that guides the nature of the development in the Old Safeway area. Whether or not the current landowners agree with the objectives of the comprehensive plan, we should follow it if it has been properly adopted. If we have a comprehensive plan for the area, we should stick with it. Either change the plan or stick with it. The 1994 Comprehensive Plan had lots of good ideas and we should stick with it, like lots of open space and trees in the Old Safeway area. We need an overall vision of the downtown waterfront area, not redevelopment on a project-by-project basis. Right now, development occurs based only on whether it can make money for the developers, not based on what city residents want or would benefit from. The views of the downtown Edmonds merchants should be taken into account and the developers and City officials need to hear what the local retailers really think. The City Council needs to be more aggressive and not just rubber stamp whatever the City Planning Staff says. Packet Page 337 of 409 10 ay property is now a neglected area. There should be better litter control. Types of Business in the New Development Area: The anchor tenants in the new developments downtown are real estate businesses. Is this the kind of business we want to draw to the new development area? Why are we even trying to attract new businesses here? Do we need it? Can we get by without it? Offices do not bring charm to Edmonds. Should the new development focus on condominiums? Retail shops? We have plenty of service offices, but not much new retail space or businesses. A hotel and conference center would be a good project to build in the new development - vicinity. A convention center would be a good use of the development area. An amphitheater would be a good use of the property. There should be lots of trees, big trees. There should be a substantial amount of affordable housing. There should be a mix of residential and commercial development in the new commercial, retail, office, residential, and lots of public access. There could be businesses and amenities that focus on the arts, and that support small business and residential attractions. We need public toilets in Edmonds. We need more less expensive places to eat. The waterfront is a wonderful resource that all residents of Edmonds should be allowed to enjoy. The Port is doing a great job developing its own property for the public to enjoy. Point Edwards condo development is far more prominent on the hillside that previously envisioned. Any new development should be development like the Point Edwards condo project has turned into. The antique mall is a good use of the old Safeway property right now, and there is plenty of affordable parking available there. A hotel development would be good, too. Packet Page 338 of 409 11 opportunities. Maybe there could be a new restaurant in the existing Safeway property. We would also like to see a conference center there that would attract lots of people to Edmonds is moving in that same direction. The new Edmonds Center for the Arts is a good addition to the city. There is already so much here! Please The Saturday markets are great, and it would be wonderful to have something like them in the new development areas. We should use Pike Place Market as an example of what we would like to see in the new development area. Granville Island is also a good example of what we could develop in Edmonds if we set our minds to it. We should narrow the field of services that would be available: a fish market or a produce market would be good. Third Place Books is a great kind of business to have in the old Safeway location: a business that brings people together in one one. Third Place has developed similar properties at Lake Forest Park and at Crossroads Mall in Bellevue. It would be nice to have businesses with gathering places inside. We need to bring more families in once they see what we can offer. of the redevelopment that would be good for the city. They converted an old cannery there into a beautiful hotel.. We need to preserve what we have and maintain the good things we already have instead of starting from scratch. No gambling. The downtown area is too car oriented right now, and not oriented to pedestrian or child- friendly activities for families. Because there soon will be two tracks through Edmonds, the amount of rail traffic may increase, which will cause even more delays and congestion for people trying to cross the tracks.

Alternative Water Utility Rate Structure Discussion Edmonds City Council Meeting Date:04/06/2010 Submitted By:Kim Karas Submitted For:Noel Miller Time:15 Minutes Department:Public Works Type:Action Review Committee: Committee Action: Information Subject Title Alternative water utility rate structure discussion. Recommendation from Mayor and Staff Continue to charge for water consumption using a uniform water utility rate structure. Previous Council Action On December 4, 2007, the City Council adopted water use efficiency measures as required by the State of Washington Department of Health regulations. The stated goal is to reduce per capita water consumption by an average of one percent (1%) per year. Narrative The City of Edmonds is in the process of updating its Water Comprehensive Plan. Part of the plan update requires the City to review its water rate structure so that the rates are in alignment to encourage customers to conserve water. For many years, the City has required meters for each water service connection and charged a uniform rate for each unit of water sold. (See Exhibit 1) This is the minimum standard for a water rate structure under the Water Use Efficiency measures allowed by the Department of Health regulations. Under the water use efficiencies rules, the City is to consider and may elect to impose alternative rate structures to further encourage water conservation. These rate structures are: INCLINING BLOCK RATE CHARGE - This rate structure increases the unit price of water at higher consumption levels. It sends a price signal to customers to keep their consumption at a lower level or expend more money at higher rates than a customer who consumes a lesser amount of water. (See Exhibit 2) SEASONAL RATE CHARGE- This rate structure increases the unit price of water during the drier summer months. It also sends a price signal to customers to use less water to irrigate landscaping and to landscape with more drought tolerant plants. (See Exhibit 3) Changing to an inclining or seasonal rate charge will have a dramatic cost impact to higher consumption customers. Presently, the City is meeting its water use efficiency measures currently in effect and the per capita average consumption is being reduced by over the stated goal of one Packet Page 345 of 409 percent (1%) per year. (See Exhibit 4) In addition, the City is charged a uniform wholesale water rate under the terms of its water supply contract with the Alderwood Water District. There are no seasonal differences to the rate and there is no increasing block rate structure. As part of the Water Comprehensive Plan Update, staff is currently working with our utility rate consultant, FCS Group, to analyze the projected cost of service and capital expenditures for the next six (6) years and develop water utility rates to support the projected expenditures. Staff requests that City Council provide direction in regard to contracting with FCS Group to develop alternative rate structures. The additional cost to the City to develop and implement an alternative rate structure is estimated to cost $50,000 - $100,000.

Any increased costs can be offset by conservation. Electric power is a substantial portion of the City’s budget each year. Saving electricity, and using renewable sources for the electricity we use, can help reduce our drain on energy resources and attract new business. Bellingham obtains 100% of its government electricity from renewable energy sources through purchased energy credits. 13% of Bellingham’s total electric consumption is from green power, 92,000,000 kWh/year. Lake Oswego buys 2,300,000 kWh of green energy/year for City operations, enough for its entire waste treatment operations. Mukilteo and Kenmore have installed solar panels on their city hall roofs. Bremerton and Bellingham get EPA grants to reduce electric consumption and purchase green power. Buying green power reduces greenhouse gas emissions and helps conserve energy. Edmonds can begin to become an EPA Green Power Community by aiming to purchase at least 2% of its electricity needs from renewable sources. Local grants are available from Snohomish PUD.

As President-elect Obama noted when introducing his economic recovery plan in December 2008, reducing energy use in public buildings could save American taxpayers billions of dollars each year. Furthermore, he said, “It will put people back to work.” Improving the energy efficiency of municipal facilities and operations is a cost-effective strategy to help stimulate the economy, create jobs, expand markets for energy-efficient technologies, and reduce emissions of air pollutants and greenhouse gases (GHGs). (U.S. EPA, 2008g; U.S. EPA, 2006b). Local governments can also lead by example through improving energy efficiency in their own operations, motivating the private sector and other stakeholders to follow suit. Engaging the private sector in municipal energy efficiency improvements can also leverage a greater pool of expertise, providing opportunities for education and outreach, and fostering a community- wide discussion about saving energy, money, and the environment. The National Action Plan for Energy Efficiency and Vision for 2025: Achieving All Cost-Effective Energy Efficiency by 2025 The National Action Plan for Energy Efficiency (Action Plan) recognizes that improving energy efficiency in our homes, businesses, schools, governments, and industries—which consume more than 70 percent of the natural gas and electricity needs in the country—is one of the most constructive, cost-effective ways to address our nation’s energy challenges. The Action Plan, developed in July 2006 by more than 50 leading organizations representing key stakeholder perspectives, describes policy recommendations for creating a sustainable, aggressive national commitment to energy efficiency through gas and electric utilities, utility regulators, and partner organizations. In 2007, Action Plan leaders defined a vision that provides the framework for implementing the Action Plan. This Vision establishes a goal of achieving all cost-effective energy efficiency by 2025; describes 10 implementation goals for states, utilities, and other stakeholders; describes what 2025 might look like if the goal is achieved; and provides a means for measuring progress. The Action Plan documents the importance of lead-by-example (LBE) strategies in its “Vision for 2025" report. The Vision identifies LBE as a critical component of achieving the long- term goal of fully developing all cost-effective energy efficiency resources in the United States by 2025. Local governments are participating in the Action Plan Sector Collaborative to identify opportunities within their sector.

Purchasing renewable energy credits representing 100% of the electricity used in 2007 by municipal operations will make the City of Bellingham the sixth largest purchaser of renewable energy in the nation by a local government, according to officials at the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). “Green power” is electricity that is produced by clean, renewable sources, such as wind, solar and biomass. “By participating at a 100% level,” said Bellingham Mayor Mark Asmundson, “we are purchasing enough green energy credits to “green” all of the electricity we use to run city facilities - from the fire station on Deemer Road to the Post Point Wastewater Treatment Plant and all the parks and streetlights in between.” “The city’s green power purchase represents the elimination of about 13,000 tons of carbon dioxide pollution,” Asmundson said. “That’s like not driving 22 million miles. It is pretty clear that this is the single biggest thing that we can do to help protect the climate. Protecting the climate needs to be our top priority, and this is a huge step in that direction.” According to EPA officials, if the Bellingham community purchases the estimated 25,000 MWh per year, the city will have the following rankings in the Green Power Partnership: Largest 100% renewable energy purchase by a local government; Tenth largest 100% renewable energy purchase by any type of organization.

In its place we are entering a period of consequences.’ It is essential that city government take a leadership role in protecting our climate, and with this action we are leaders locally and nation-wide.” The City of Bellingham now joins another national green power leader - Western Washington University (WWU). In 2005, WWU began greening 100% of its energy use, making it the 4th largest purchaser of renewable energy by an educational institution. Asmundson said the city’s renewable power purchase will cost an estimated additional $250,000 next year. This action is a part of the Bellingham Green Power Community Challenge, a community wide campaign to promote renewable energy that is being launched the afternoon of September 2, 2006, in conjunction with the Bellingham Traverse. The City of Bellingham, Sustainable Connections, and Puget Sound Energy are working together to urge residents and businesses to also participate in Puget Sound Energy’s Green Power Program to support the development of renewable energy resources in the Pacific Northwest. The EPA tracks and promotes renewable energy credit purchases through the EPA Green Power Partnership. “Local businesses and local governments are responding to Bellingham’s Green Power Community Challenge at an impressive rate at this early stage.” said Derek Long, Program Director for Sustainable Connections. “If we keep this up, Bellingham has a chance to become the largest EPA Green Power Community in the nation. This action speaks to our commitment to the environment and our future clean energy needs.” Puget Sound Energy residential electric customers can sign up for the voluntary Green Power Program for as little as $4.00 a month by visiting www.pse.com. Bellingham businesses that sign up by August 4 will be recognized as Founding Partners in the Bellingham Green Power Community Challenge. Details can be found by visiting the Sustainable Connections website at www.sconnect.org/greenpower “The EPA applauds City of Bellingham officials for their commitment to purchase green power for the city government and in supporting a community-wide initiative,” said Matt Clouse, director of EPA’s Green Power Partnership. “Bellingham’s purchase will serve Packet Page 373 of 409 Featured Local Climate and Energy Guide - Combined Heat and PowerBellingham, WA – Green Power Community In 2006 City committed to 100% green power for government operations as part of their GHG management strategy.  Set a goal for the entire community to purchase 2% green power through the Bellingham Green Power Community Challenge.  Results: Today, 13% of the community’s total energy use is from green power.  This is almost 92 million kWh annually—equivalent to the emissions from ~12,000 cars.

The area, which will be a new addition to the city, is expected to be developed into an economic center. This project will proactively promote green development of SKIA by assessing the feasibility of attracting green industry, developing a green Master Plan and building code, writing an Environmental Impact Statement, and designing a water recycling system for SKIA. Community Characteristics Population:35,600 Area:26 square miles Government Type:City Community Type:Suburban Median Household Income:$38,061 Program Results/Estimated Results GHG Emissions Reductions: 912,000 metric tons carbon dioxide equivalent (CO 2e) Electricity Savings:10,000 kilowatt-hours (kWh) Gasoline Savings:300 gallons Other Benefits:Energy efficiency, stormwater/wastewater management, transit-oriented development, increased recycling To promote green development of SKIA, the city of Bremerton will first develop a work plan for the project, encouraging public participation in the process. Next, the city will work with a qualified consultant to assess the feasibility of attracting green industry to the area. The project's environmental goals will be evaluated as well. Additionally, green infrastructure policies will be integrated into the city's building code and the Master Plan. The city will also develop an Environmental Impact Statement with the aid of a consultant and will design a stormwater/wastewater recycling system for SKIA. The project is expected to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 912,000 metric tons CO2e over the lifetime of the development, through improved energy performance, reduced vehicle miles traveled, natural resource management, and the increased use of green power.

The Green Power Locator can assist local governments in finding green power options in their area. Renewable Energy Benefits of Renewable Energy Implementing On-site Renewable Energy Projects Tools and Resources Local governments can dramatically reduce their carbon footprint by purchasing or directly generating electricity from clean, renewable sources that produce no net greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. The most common renewable power technologies include at a minimum: Solar (photovoltaic, solar thermal) Wind Biogas (e.g., landfill gas/wastewater treatment digester gas) Geothermal Biomass Low-impact hydroelectricity Emerging technologies - wave and tidal power Local governments can lead by example by generating energy on–site, purchasing green power, or purchasing renewable energy. Using a combination of renewable energy options can help meet local government goals especially in some regions where availability and quality of renewable resources vary. Options for using renewable energy include: Generating renewable energy on-site using a system or device at the location where the power is used (e.g., PV panels on a state building, geothermal heat pumps, biomass-fueled combined heat and power). Purchasing green power through renewable energy certificates (RECs) - also known as green tags, green energy certificates, or tradable renewable certificates – that represent the technology and environmental attributes of electricity generated from renewable resources. Purchasing renewable energy from an electric utility through a green pricing or green marketing program, where buyers pay a small premium in exchange for electricity generated locally from green power resources. Top of page Benefits of Renewable Energy Environmental and economic benefits of using renewable energy include: Generating energy that produces no anthropogenic GHG emissions and reduces some types of air pollution Diversifying energy supply and reducing dependence on imported fuels Creating economic development and jobs in manufacturing, installation, and more Top of page Implementing On-site Renewable Energy Projects On-site power generation provides local governments with the most direct access to renewable energy. In addition to the overall benefits, on-site projects also provide a hedge against financial risks and improve power quality and supply reliability. However, local governments considering on-site generation may face possible technical, financial, and regulatory challenges.

The Council discussed the need for transparency regarding the City’s finances in order for the public to support a levy, the upcoming school levy as an indication of voters’ support for levies, providing information regarding the City’s finances on the City’s website to illustrate the need for a levy, educating citizens about the need for a levy, recent tax increases that have been approved by voters, a proforma budget concept that illustrates how taxes are being used and to explain why some areas are identified for cuts first, need to demonstrate fiscal responsibility, timeline for placing a levy on the ballot, preparing clear numbers before proposing a levy, airing an educational budget presentation on Channel 21, and educating citizens about the budget process and the City’s financial policies.

Public Comment Harold Huston, Edmonds, explained he met with Board President Rose Cantwell this week to review several suggestions. He has been involved with the Senior Center for the past 20 years and sees the problems as, 1) staff turnover and 2) not getting 50-60 year old seniors involved. He recommended merging the Senior Center with the City’s Parks and Recreation so that qualified City employees could apply for grants. He also recommended the City change from a Mayor form of government to a City Manager form of government at the end of Mayor Haakenson’s term, explaining this would take the Mayor’s position out of politics and made it an honorary position. Roger Hertrich, Edmonds, disagreed there was a problem with staff turnover at the Senior Center, commenting the new Director was very well qualified. He recommended the Council make a pedestrian Packet Page 395 of 409 FINANCE COMMITTEE MEETING MINUTES March 9, 2010 6:50 PM Present: Councilmember Bernheim Councilmember Buckshnis Staff: Lorenzo Hines Jr., Director, Finance and Information Services Brian McIntosh, Director, Parks and Recreation Department Public: Ron Wambolt Bob Stevenson Melissa Johnson Roger Hertrich Councilmember Buckshnis called the meeting to order at 6:50 PM.

Packet Page 396 of 409 Basic Financial Reporting Policies The City of Edmonds is committed to the highest standards of responsible financial management. The City, including the City Council, Mayor and staff will work together to ensure that all financial matters of the City are addressed with care, integrity, and in the best interest of the City. The rules and procedures contained in this section are designed to: 1. Protect the assets of the City of Edmonds and provide a financial base sufficient to sustain municipal services to maintain the social well being and physical condition of the City; 2. Ensure that the accounting system will maintain records on a basis consistent and in compliance with federal, state, local legal and reporting requirements; 3. Ensure the maintenance of open and accurate financial records. These financial records will be labeled properly (unaudited and date). Reports will be submitted to the City Council by the Finance Director and will be labeled clearly such as: monthly and/or quarterly and fiscal year ending. Such summary financial reports are to be labeled to reflect the financial activity of major types of funds and those related to major funds. 4. Ensure the public has financial information available on the City’s website under the Finance area at a minimum after the monthly finance meeting has transpired. Availability of and ensuring that the reports are made public will be a responsibility of the Mayor. 5. Provide a means for the City Council to update and monitor these policies with the assistance and cooperation of the Mayor’s office and the Director of Finance and Information Services. Accounting Records and Reports: 1. Basis of Accounting - Basis of accounting refers to the point at which revenues or expenditures are recognized in the accounts and reported in the financial statements. The government-wide financial statements, as well as the financial statements for proprietary and fiduciary funds are reported using the economic resources measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting. Under the accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recorded when earned and expenses are recorded when a liability is incurred, regardless of the when the cash is received. Under the modified accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recognized as soon as they become both measurable and available, and expenditures are recorded in the period that the expenditure occurs and becomes a liability. In the case of Federal and State grants, the grant revenues are recorded and a receivable is established when eligible expenditures are incurred. In the event when full accrual (accrual) is utilized, a disclosure will be made as to the reasoning for this method of accounting. The City’s Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR) on its financial activity shall be presented in compliance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) as defined by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) and Washington State Auditors Office. 2. Basis of Budgeting – The basis of budgeting differs from the basis of accounting only by the assumptions that are made in regards to the timing of the recognition of revenue and expenditures. The budget assumes that all revenues and expenditures, as well as associated cash, will be expended or received during the biennium. Conversely, the basis of accounting only recognizes revenues when they become both measurable and available. Cash is not necessarily received or expended at the same time. 1 Packet Page 397 of 409 2 3. Financial Reporting: a. The City’s financial accounting system shall assure that the status and transactions of each account and their relationship to budget authority is clear. b. Revenue reports shall be prepared monthly and be provided to the Finance Committee. At a minimum, the following funds should be provided: REET 1 and 2, Sales and Use Tax, Gas Utility Tax, Telephone Utility Tax, Electric Utility Tax. A monthly General Fund analysis of comparing revenue budget to actual and expenditure budget to actual with the net balance will be provided. After review by the Finance Committee, these reports will be available on the City’s website under the Finance area. All budget amendments shall be included in the monthly report. Graphs should be integrated into report to provide trend analyses. c. Quarterly Summaries shall be provided within a minimum of 30 days of quarter-end. Reports should include an: Overview, Major Revenue Projections, General Revenue Detail, Expenditure Summary, Expenditure Detail by Fund and Expenditure Detail by Department. A narrative discussing the trends, the drivers and assumptions should be included and after Finance Committee Review, these statements will be made available on the website under Finance. d. The Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR) shall be timely and meet or exceed professional industry standards. A preliminary CAFR summary will be required by the first month subsequent to the first quarter. e. Revenues and expenditures for the General Fund and all operating funds shall be projected for the ensuing biennium. Biennium Budget Amendments shall be clearly labeled identifying the report and date and if any ordinance requires City Council deliberations, those items shall be highlighted. f. The City’s Budget and Biennial budget documents shall provide for comparison with prior years. g. Any outstanding inter-fund loans shall be reported as needed but not less frequently than once a quarter and according to ordinance 3649. 4. Audits: The City will ensure that City records are audited annually and which will result in the issuance of a financial opinion. Packet Page 398 of 409 RESOLUTION NO: ____ A RESOLUTION IN SUPPORT OF IMPLEMENTING THE CITY OF EDMONDS FISCAL POLICIES Whereas, The City of Edmonds is committed to the highest standards of responsible financial management. Whereas, The City, including the City Council, Mayor and staff will work together to ensure that all financial matters of the City are addressed with care, integrity, and in the best interest of the City. Whereas, The City Council decided at its 2010 retreat that a Financial Policy should be created to assist staff in understanding the guidelines expected for future financial presentations and to provide more transparency to the public by allowing the financials to be displayed on the website under the area of Finance. Whereas, The Finance Committee has discussed this Policy with staff and this policy is now up for review by City Council and approval. NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council shall direct Staff to prepare an ordinance supporting the implementation of City of Edmonds Financial Policies.

Scott Snyder, Office of the City Attorney RE: City Financial Policies You have asked me to review and comment on new City Council financial policies preparatory to their adoption by resolution or ordinance. My comments are intended to assist Ms. Buckshnis and the Finance Committee in accomplishing their goals. State Law Structure The City Council’s ability to adopt financial policies is constrained by the provisions of Title 35A setting forth the City’s budget procedures. It is important to note that the form of the City’s financial documents and accounting systems is dictated by state law and the State Auditor. RCW 35A.34.190 regarding accounting forms for biennial budget cities states: The State Auditor is empowered to make and install the forms and classifications required by this chapter to define what expenditures are chargeable to each budget class and to establish the accounting and cost systems necessary to secure accurate budget information. [Emphasis added] See RCW 35A.33.110 containing similar provisions regarding annual budget cities. Similarly, RCW 35A.34.060, RCW 35A.34.030, RCW 35A.33.040, RCW 35A.33.110 all require that the City’s forms be “prepared in accordance with the requirements and classification established by the State Auditor.” RCW 35A.33.030. The State Auditor’s oversight is also Packet Page 400 of 409 Lorenzo Hines, Jr., Finance Director March 31, 2010 Page 2 reinforced by the requirement that complete copies of the City’s biennial budget be transferred to the State Auditor upon adoption. RCW 35A.34.120. The State Auditor performs annual audits of the City’s financial reporting. The City Council is granted power in a number of specific situations. While the statutory structure generally authorizes the Mayor to transfer appropriations within a fund (as in General Fund, Utilities Fund), the City Council may impose regulations regarding such transfers by ordinance. RCW 35A.34.190 (3). The Council also has the responsibility to approve warrants for payment. Finally, please note that the Council may also require by ordinance “not less than quarterly”: … a report showing the expenditures and liabilities against each separate budget appropriation incurred during the preceding reporting period together with the unexpended balance of each appropriation. The report shall also show the receipts from all sources. RCW 35A.34.240. With that background mind, I offer the following comments: 1. Establishment of “Rules and Procedure.” As noted, the form and content of City financial reporting is established by the State Auditor and is not subject to amendment by the City Council. To the extent that the Council’s financial management policies track the Auditor’s requirements, they serve as good public information. I suggest that the following language be added: The form and content of City financial reporting documents and financial records is established by the State Auditor. These policies shall be interpreted to comply with the requirements established by the State Auditor, and in the event of conflict, the State Auditor’s requirements shall control. 2. Accounting Records and Reports. As noted the City Council’s ability to establish rules and regulations is limited to three areas. The City Council can establish regulations on the ability of the Mayor to transfer appropriations within funds, can establish procedures for warrant approval, and can specify the period (not less than quarterly) on which it receives status reports regarding the expenditures, liabilities and receipts of the City. The form of the report will be determined by the State Auditor. {WSS779285.DOC;1\00006.900000\ } Packet Page 401 of 409 Lorenzo Hines, Jr., Finance Director March 31, 2010 Page 3 {WSS779285.DOC;1\00006.900000\ } I suggest that we work with City Councilmember Buckshnis to accomplish her goals. A significant portion of the proposed policies relates to reports to be received by the City’s Finance Committee. The City Council has the ability to require quarterly reporting. Therefore, much of what Ms. Buckshnis is proposing in Section 3, financial reporting of the accounting records and report section, is an appropriate exercise of the Council’s authority under RCW 35A.34.240 but needs to be limited to quarterly updates. A number of references to “budget amendments” are out of sync with the statutory structure. Budget amendments are done by the Council on a mid-year and year end basis throughout the biennial budget. RCW 35A.34.130. This requires formality (publication of notice and public hearing) and shall occur no sooner than eight months after the start nor later than the conclusion of the first year of the biennium. Other amendments can be undertaken on a super majority vote as emergency approvals. (RCW 35A.34.140) My read is that the Councilmember intends to refer to matters brought to the City Council as budget deviations during the course of a budget year, which are held for budget amendment on a periodic basis. If that is the Councilmember’s desire, the language could be clearer. The portion of the policies relating to City Council direction for quarterly status reports should be adopted by ordinance. The City Council can also request that: 1) The Mayor make the information available on the web site -- the reports will be public documents subject to release and are certainly appropriate for posting on the web site. The City Council also has the option of having the work done by a contract or its counsel assistant (if it wishes to direct rather than request); 2) The staff provide more frequent reports (monthly) to the committee. CONCLUSION The policies combine a restatement of accounting principles that are established by the State Auditor and an exercise of City Council authority to direct financial status updates. I suggest that the document be divided into two parts. One would be a restatement or summary of policies established by City Council resolution, which acknowledges the ultimate supremacy of the accounting standards and forms established by the State Auditor. The other would primarily contain the material contained in the Section III Financial Reporting and should be adopted by ordinance. The ordinance would constitute an exercise of the City Council’s authority under RCW 35A.24.240 but must be limited to quarterly reporting. Thank you for the opportunity to review and comment on these proposed policies. I look forward to working with Ms. Buckshnis and you to accomplish the Finance Committee’s goals.
