There has only been sixteen cases filed in about six or seven years. Out of those, three are already halfway through the process. There are no new applications laying there, we are already into the Hearing Examiner process. Only three were appealed and we have all three of those. I think that there is probably some changes, but I see no need for a moratorium to accomplish this"; page 10, following paragraph 3, include the statement that Councilmember Hall thought Councilmember Dwyer should apologize for the state- ment he made regarding the Planning Board.

Item (F) and (G) were carried over to next week's agenda. a PROPOSED ORDINANCE 2737 AMENDING EDMONDS COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT CODE REGARDING PARKING LOT SLOPE Q� REQUIREMENTS CDC- -89 ITEM K ON THE CONSENT AGENDA lfyZ�� Mayor Pro Tem Nordquist referred to Section 1.95.020(D) of the proposed ordinance. He recommend- ed that the engineering criteria be included in the ordinance. City Engineer Bob Alberts noted that that criteria were attached to the back of the Council's packet (exhibit 3). MAYOR PRO TEM NORDQUIST MOVED, SECONDED BY COUNCILMEMBER JAECH, TO INCLUDE THE ENGINEERING CRITE- RIA IN THE PROPOSED ORDINANCE 2737. Councilmember Hertrich suggested that the language in paragraph 2 of the proposed ordinance relat- ing to hillside contours and retaining walls be deleted and refer only to the public health, safety and welfare to simply the ordinance. City Attorney Scott Snyder suggested that the ordinance be rewritten to include those amend- ments. Councilmember Jaech pointed out that the ordinance should be adopted as soon as possible because time was of the essence to Monte Clouston, the proponent of the ordinance, and he would be forced to sue the City if the ordinance did not pass immediately. COUNCILMEMBER HERTRICH MOVED TO AMEND THE ORDINANCE, SECONDED BY COUNCILMEMBER DWYER, TO DELETE THE LANGUAGE, "PROVIDE FOR HILLSIDE CONTOURS AND PREVENT THE UNNECESSARY USE OF RETAINING WALLS" AND MAKE THE ORDINANCE EFFECTIVE ON HEALTH, SAFETY AND WELFARE AND REFERENCE THE CRITERIA USED BY THE CITY ENGINEER. Councilmember Dwyer was in agreement with Councilmember Hertrich because he said deletion of the wording posed by him would not change the substance of the ordinance. COUNCILMEMBER JAECH SAID SHE WOULD AGREE TO INCLUDE THAT AMENDMENT INTO THE MAIN MOTION IF THE MAKER OF THE MOTION AGREED. MOTION CARRIED. THE MAIN MOTION, AS AMENDED, CARRIED, ADOPTING ORDINANCE 2737, WITH COUNCILMEMBER WILSON OPPOSED.

MOTION CAR- RIED. CWC-HDR MONTHLY REPORT Bud Benges, CWC-HDR, Inc., reported that the superstructure walls at the raw sewage pumping sta- tion are complete. The contractor is preparing to place the station roof members. A new con- crete design mix design is being used as a corrective measure for the concrete staining that was experienced at the station. Installation of process piping and plumbing continues in the raw sewage pumping station. - Mr. Benges said the contractor has completed installation of the upper floor slab in the solids process building and has constructed the first superstructure wall section. The contractor start- ed installation of process piping and plumbing in the building and is preparing for installation of the belt filter presses. Mr. Benges said process piping installation in the raw sludge pumping station is near completion, and the contractor has installed several raw sludge pumps. Primary clarifier number 3 walls and fillets are complete, and the primary sludge collection mechanisms are installed. Mr. Benges said the primary sludge collection mechanism is installed in primary clarifier number 2, and all metal wires and baffles are in place ready for final painting. Mr. Benges noted that the contractor's claim for extra work regarding the installation of the Phase II cutoff has been returned to CWC-HDR and is under review. Mr. Benges said bids for the Edmonds wastewater meter station were opened on September 26, 1989. He said the low bid received for the metering station was $364,000, which is approximately $80,000 more than CWC anticipated. He said the firm will try to determine why the cost bids are higher than the cost estimates. Mr. Benges stated that change order number three has been drafted and is under final review. The total amount of the change order equals $23,841 and includes the contractor's dewatering issues and several miscellaneous small items. Mr. Benges said construction of the Edmonds effluent outfall has commenced. Installation of the land portion is complete and the marine portion of the outfall will begin next week. A flow diversion involving the existing storm drain to enable construction of the y-section was per- formed. Locking of the manhole lids and storm drain laterals resulted in leaking of water to Dayton Street and SR-104. Mr. Benges noted that the project is 252 days into construction, representing 22% of the total contract time as of August 1, 1989. Pay estimate no. 8 for work performed from August 1, 1989 to August 31, 1989 was for $1,043,250. Total payments as of August 31, 1989 are $6,352,657, or 26% of the total contract time. Mr. Benges said a public meeting took place on September 25. Residents of the Sundowner Apart- ments requested to be notified in advance when construction activities take place on 2nd Street' and Alder Street. Councilmember Hertrich inquired how long SR-104 and Dayton Avenue will be disrupted due to con- struction. Mr. Benges said only half of SR-104 and Dayton Street will be closed for 48 hours. He said a poster highlighting the areas that will be under construction will be posted in Harbor Square. Councilmember Jaech inquired about ferry traffic when SR-104 is disrupted. Mr. Benges reiterated that only half of the road will be closed, and traffic will be directed by a traffic controller. Councilmember Jaech suggested that a study be done to determine when ferry traffic is at a mini- mum so that the downtown area is impacted as little as possible. # PRELIMINARY REVIEW OF 5TH AND MAIN STREET FOUNTAIN (DESIGN AND FUNDING Barbara Kindness, Chamber of Commerce, reported that refurbishing of the fountain at 5th and Main Streets is one of the projects that has been designated for the Edmonds Centennial. The commit- tee for the project is comprised of the following people: Barbara Kindness and Linda McCrystal, Centennial Committee; Peggy Jones, Edmonds Arts Festival; Larry Hulbert and Win Bainbridge, Arts Cammission; Barbara Engler, Hubbard Trust; and Peggy Harris, citizen. Ms. Kindness EDMONDS CITY COUNCIL MINUTES Page 3 SEPTEMBER 26, 1989 said the committee met with the designer of the original fountain sculpture intended for the 5th and Main location, Jack McLellan. Even though his design was not built and a different sculpture was used, everyone was enthused with his design. Ms. Kindness said a survey was conducted and revealed that a majority of the people who responded to the survey would like to see a change at the intersection. Ms. Kindness showed the Council the design that was proposed many years ago for the fountain. Ms. Kindness said bids from three foundries were received for costs to cast the design, but all three bids were over $75,000; that, combined with installation, refurbishing of motors and lights, etc., would bring the project cost near $100,000. The committee felt this cost was exces- sive and asked Mr. McLellan to revise his design. He reduced the size of the sculpture design, but bids were still $50,000 and more for the sculpture only. Ms. Kindness said the committee thought a cost of $40,000 would be reasonable and could be fund -raised. Ms. Kindness reviewed two alternatives which the committee discussed: set a budget for $40,000 and remove the existing sculpture and replace it with a new sculpture. Improve the fountain, motors, redo the pool, repair the nozzles and enlarge the ring. Set a budget for $10,000 and remove the existing sculpture. Rebuild the pool, replace the old pump and broken lights, enlarge the fountain ring, repair the nozzles, and install a filter system. She also providedsamples of fountains only without a sculpture. Councilmember Jaech pointed out that the art piece must allow motorists to see across the inter- section. Ms. Kindness said that issue was taken into consideration. Councilmember Hall said the art piece should be designed to a pedestrian scale. She noted that drivers cannot see the top of the existing sculpture. She said discussions have taken place in the past to revise the intersection for a pedestrian -only area. Councilmember Hall said a design that is aimed at the pedestrian will attract people to that area. She noted that if a fountain alone were used, it would have to be designed to allow drivers to see through the water spray. Councilmember Hertrich inquired about the survey that was conducted. Ms. Kindness said surveys were placed at the Anderson Center, at the Taste of Edmonds, and was published in the Edmonds paper. The Council thanked Ms. Kindness for making the presentation. QUARTERLY CENTENNIAL COMMITTEE REPORT Barbara Kindness, Chamber of Commerce, reported that the Committee meets on the second and fourth Monday of each month to plan projects and events for the Washington State and City of Edmonds Centennials. Ms. Kindness reviewed a summary of last quarter's activities and upcoming projects. Councilmember Wilson inquired if the budget for the Centennial program is sufficient. Ms. Kind- ness said the Committee has worked within the budget this year and plans to present a request for the 1990 budget in the near future. She said all of the funds allotted to the Committee this year will be spent. TOURISM COMMITTEE 1989 REPORT Jo Anne Stevens, Edmonds Tourism Committee said there are nine members on the Committee comprised from the following groups: Edmonds Chamber of Commerce, Edmonds Arts Commission, Edmonds City Council, Edmonds Parks And Recreation, Port of Edmonds, Small Business/Large Business, Snohomish County Visitor Information Center, Region IV Tourism, the Mayor, plus one recently added Centenni- al Committee representative. Ms. Stevens said the philosophy of the organization is to create a team effort to develop better communication of the various activities and events that are promoted by each group. Ms. Stevens said many of the projects initiated by the committee require continuous renewal. Other projects are regularly introduced. Ms. Stevens said the Edmonds post card was the first project that was undertaken by the Committee and has been so successful that it needs to be reprinted but another scenic card is under consid- eration. Ms. Stevens said the Edmonds brochure must also be reprinted and current distribution on the ferries should be expanded. EDMONDS CITY COUNCIL MINUTES Page 4 SEPTEMBER 26, 1989 Ms. Stevens said the Edmonds video is available at the Edmonds Library, the City, Parks & Recrea- tion, and the Chamber of Commerce. It is used at the Snohomish County V.I.C. and tourism trade shows. Ms. Stevens said Destination Washington, the State Department of Tourism promotional piece, is an excellent opportunity to advertise and promote Edmonds. She said the City's layout is expanded each year. Ms. Stevens said the Seattle King County Convention and Visitors Bureau, in which Edmonds recent- ly became a member, offers the opportunity to place the City's brochures in their five visitor information centers. It also offers the opportunity to access the hundreds of conventions held each year in their new facility and to promote the City of Edmonds. Ms. Stevens said the Welcome to Edmonds Visitor information survey was produced in August 1989 in time for distribution at the Taste of Edmonds. The Harbor Inn and other overnight accommoda- tions, she said, are cooperating with the study. Edmonds Promoters are coordinating the business while the Chamber gathers this data. Ms. Stevens said the Sister City Program is a viable tourism effort that is supported by the Edmonds Tourism Committee. Ms. Stevens said the Committee recognizes that the Chamber of Commerce promotes many community events and many of those people are working together to better the quality of life in Edmonds. Ms. Stevens said the Committee has agreed that a salaried staff director is necessary to effec- tively maintain organization. She pointed out that the City of Everett has employed a staff director for many years, and the City of Marysville is considering such a position. Ms. Stevens said it would seem perfect timing, with the Edmonds Centennial celebration upcoming, to initiate the option of a designated person whose responsibility would include directing all the community projects and economic development, while promoting the City. Councilmember Wilson inquired about the Committee's 1989 budget. Ms. Stevens said the City Coun- cil has allotted $6,500 each year to the Tourism Committee from the Hotel/Motel Tax. She ex- plained that 25% of the 2% monies are earmarked in Fund 120 for the Arts Commission and 25% for the Tourism Committee, and 50% is placed in a reserve fund for Performing Arts. Ms. Stevens said she recently learned that Fund 120 has bee► depleted because the Council recent- ly allotted $12,300 to the Edmonds Chamber of Commerce and $8,400 to the Centennial Committee. Administrative Services Director Art Housler explained that there is approximately $1,750 left in Fund 120, but revenues are deposited into that account from the Hotel/Motel Tax on a quarterly basis. Ms. Stevens felt the Tourism Committee should have the ability to monitor the status of Fund 120 and be apprised of any expenditures from that fund. Councilmember Nordquist suggested that the Committee make a formal recommendation to the Mayor for a salaried staff director because the 1990 budget is in the process of formulation. PROPOSED ORDINANCE 2738 REGARDING SHARED LEAVE Personnel Manager Brent Hunter reported that the Shared Leave Ordinance will allow City employees to donate vacation leave to a fellow City worker.who is suffering from a catastrophic illness and d� who will run out of paid leave before the City's Long Term Disability Insurance becomes effec- tive. He said the use of Shared Leave will not significantly increase the City's costs. He said this new program is proposed on a trial basis that is to be reviewed within one calendar year to determine its continuation. Mr. Hunter said the City's Shared Leave program is based largely on a similar program that was established by State law this year for State employees. Mr. Hunter noted that the ordinance is being driven by a police officer who is suffering from a severe and disabling illness. He said the employee's leave time expires at the end of the week and disability insurance is not available until February of 1990. Mr. Hunter said the shared leave concept is a new concept and, if adopted, Edmonds will be the only city in the State that has enacted a shared leave ordinance. Mr. Hunter noted that a provision was included in the ordinance which states that a waiver must be obtained from the union if a union member wishes to participate in the program to guard against long-term participation on the City's part. EDMONDS CITY COUNCIL MINUTES Page 5 SEPTEMBER 26, 1989 Mayor Pro Tem Nordquist noted that a section of the ordinance on page 3, F(1), was omitted. City Attorney Scott Snyder said that omission was inadavertent and resulted from a revision to the proposed ordinance. He read the missing language into the record as follows: "The employee's salary rate shall not change as a result of being on shared leave nor under any circumstances shall the total of the employee's salary and other benefits including, but not limited to, State Industrial Insurance or any other benefit received as a result of payments by the City to an insurer, health care provider...". In response to a question by Mayor Pro Tem Nordquist, Mr. Hunter said in the case of the City employee who is currently disabled, the Police Department will continue to pay the employee's salary. He said vacation is presently an unfunded liability, and the cost would be transferred over in a liability sense and so an actual transfer of cash would not take place. Mayor Pro Tem Nordquist inquired who will pay the income tax. Mr. Hunter said income tax will be taken out of the disabled employee's salary via the Police Department. Mr. Snyder clarified that vacation is a vested benefit, but it is not taxable until an employee receives it in the form of cash. Councilmember Jaech inquired if the proposal was reviewed by the IRS. She wanted to insure that an employee is not misinformed and then later face a tax liability. Mr. Snyder said the proposal has not been reviewed by the IRS. He said, however, he was involved with the U.S. Department of Labor with regard to similar issues and in every case, he said, a benefit which is convertible to cash is not income until money is actually received. So, he said, the City was "safe". Councilmember Hertrich inquired at what pay level a vacation benefit is paid that is donated to a disabled employee. Mr. Hunter said the benefit is paid at the recipient's salary level. Councilmember Jaech inquired if the City could replace an employee who is off work for an extend- ed period of time or who is terminally ill and will not return to work. Mr. Hunter replied affir- matively, providing there is money in the budget. Councilmember Jaech inquired if an employee accrues sick leave and vacation benefits while on leave. Mr. Hunter replied affirmatively. Mayor Pro Tem Nordquist read an excerpt from a letter signed by thirty-six officers from the Edmonds Police Officers' Association into the record as follows: "We, the undersigned members of the Edmonds Police Officers' Association, do hereby urge the Edmonds City Council to enact an ordinance pertaining to tv transfer of leave time". COUNCILMEMBER WILSON MOVED, SECONDED BY COUNCILMEMBER HALL, TO ADOPT ORDINANCE 2738. MOTION CARRIED. MAYOR . Mayor Pro Tem Nordquist welcomed newly appointed Student Representative Doug Merlino from Woodway High School. Mayor Pro Tem Nordquist reported that the Community Services Committee is awaiting a compilation of information that was studied regarding the ferry terminal and will submit a recommendation to the Council in the near future. COUNCIL Councilmember Hall said she attended the Visitor's Information Center dinner and auction at the Landmark Inn in Lynnwood last weekend. She said the Center wishes to relocate to a larger facili- ty on 164th Street because they are outgrowing the present facility. Councilmember Hall requested Administrative Services Director Art Housler to review the transac- tion that took place regarding the allocation of monies for the Chamber of Commerce and Centenni- al Committee that Ms. Stevens made reference to earlier in the meeting, as well as the percentage of monies that emanate from the Hotel/Motel Tax. 1 Councilmember Jaech said she walked out on the spit at Brackett's Landing and was unable to see the tide pools that were supposed to be constructed as part of the jetty improvements. City Engineer Bob Alberts said the tide pools were constructed and are only visible at low tide. He noted that the steps that were constructed which lead down to the tide pools were blocked off because of a potential hazard to the public if algae forms, which could cause the rocks to become slippery. He said the pools can be accessed from the beach at low tide. EDMONDS CITY COUNCIL MINUTES Page 6 SEPTEMBER 26, 1989 Councilmember Jaech requested Staff to provide the Council with a status report with respect to the Council's proposition to combine the 1989 and 1990 Arts Festival purchase monies to select an artist to create a Centennial art piece. r Councilmember Dwyer happily reported that SnoCom's 1990 budget will be decreased by 13.5% from the 1989 budget. He said if another call taker is employed, the 1990 budget will be decreased by 9% from the 1989 budget. Councilmember Dwyer said Medic 7 will retain the same staffing level, and their 1990 budget will be decreased by 2.3% from 1989. Councilmember Hertrich said he did not feel that the survey that was conducted with respect to the renovation of the fountain in downtown Edmonds adequately represents the majority opinion of the citizenry. He recommended that a City-wide survey be conducted via the water bill before the project is undertaken. Councilmember Hertrich said he serves on the Tourism Committee and attends most of the meetings J.11but he missed the last meeting. He said unless the issue of a full-time salaried director was discussed at the meeting he did not attend, he has not heard any discussion regarding that sub- ject. Councilmember Hertrich said he thought the Council, by motion, directed the Planning Board to study variances in PRD's at the time the Council reviewed the height variance for a home in Ea- PRV4 �% gle's Crest recently. He said, however, the Staff has scheduled a discussion regarding building height calculations on slope lots at tomorrow night's Planning Board meeting. He said he object- ed to that discussion because it did not follow the dictate of the Council. Councilmember Wilson said Councilmember Hertrich was in error because the Council charged the Board with studying the slope requirements. Councilmember Jaech suggested that a copy of the Council's motion be made available to the Council to resolve the dispute. The meeting adjourned at 8:33 p.m. THESE MINUTES ARE SUBJECT TO OCTOBER 3, 1989 APPROVAL. ' / r JACQ ELINE G.
