3. AUDIENCE
Mayor Fahey explained the budget hearing was closed on December 3, 1996 according to State law. The
proposed ordinance for adoption of the 1997 budget on this evening's agenda is not a hearing; comments
regarding the budget must be made during the audience participation portion of the meeting.
TransportBetty Mueller, 209 Casper St, Edmonds, referred to the issue of transport fees. Mayor Fahey clarified
Fees the transport fee was imposed by Medic 7, not the City. Comments regarding Medic Ts transport fees
should be addressed to the Medic 7 Board which meets the second Thursday in January. Ms. Mueller
felt the transport fee was double taxation, and allowing some citizens not to pay (those who cannot) was
discrimination.
City Attorney Scott Snyder said the transport fee is not a part of the City's budget; the City's annual
contribution amount was determined based on the transport fee. Therefore, approval of the budget
includes approval of the City's annual contribution to Medic 7.
Mayor Fahey explained revenues generated from the transport fees are deducted from the cost of
operating the Medic 7 program and the remaining amount is assessed to individual cities using a formula
based on population, property taxes and usage. She noted the transport fee is not a tax; Medic 7 does not
have the authority to tax citizens. They do have the authority to identify alternate sources of revenue to
maintain their program, such as billing for transport.
Adult Al Rutledge, 7101 Lake Ballinger Way, Edmonds, distributed information regarding adult
Entertain- entertainment, as well as the sale of plaques to be mounted on the new City Hall. He expressed concern
meat funding was not provided to improve baseball fields but was provided for improvements to City Park and
spore I the civic fields. He recommended the City consider a sports complex. He urged the City to consider his
complex suggestion for plaque sales as it would generate revenue for the City.
Mel Critchley, 705 Driftwood Place, Edmonds, referred to an article in the Enterprise regarding the
Publiccharges and sentence for the former Edmonds Community College President. He felt the scandals in
Safety government affected youth behavior. He referred to a letter, written in 1994, to the Police Chief and Fire
Buildings Chief, the City Council, and Mayor, regarding the Citizens for Railroad Safety's support of safety
improvements to City buildings. He requested a copy of the letter be given to the present Fire Chief and
Police Chief. Next, he read a portion of an article from Salt Lake City regarding a train accident blamed
on regulators and train operators. He pointed out the City Council was the building block of democracy
and urged the Council and citizens to work to ensure honesty in government.
Dive Team Rich Demeroutis, 921 Pine Street, Edmonds, questioned the Council's accountability as he has not
rd Rescue received a response to letters sent to the Council and Mayor. He read portions of an Enterprise article
at which stated City officials are considering retaining the dive rescue team but not the boat as the dive
team is less expensive to operate. He pointed out the importance of the boat in rescue operations and
Edmonds City Council Approved Minutes
December 17, 1996
Page 3
read a recent article regarding a water rescue. He felt the $22,000 for the dive team/boat was cheap
insurance.

son, Alex Moore, to serve as the Student Representative during the past six months.

Mayor Fahey noted although this item was not a hearing, the audience would be given an opportunity to

the General Fund have been cut and other actions taken by the Council required interfund transfers and
increases in appropriations. Therefore, the 1996 Budget must be amended again as required by State law
whenever money is transferred from one fund to another. He noted the General Fund was cut $560,000
which was offset in construction funds such as Park Improvements and Utility Construction Funds, ett.
