Councilman Gellert commented that he felt on one hand, that the waterfront belongs to everyone, but
on the other hand, there was a certain invasion of privacy involved in front of the Nelson Apartments.
Mr. Geschke responded that the proposal allows the walkway to go along the lower level and would not,
therefore, look onto the apartments. June Friesendahl was concerned about vandalism. She said a lot
of teenagers already congregate there be'yond.10:00 p.::m. and before 6:00 a.m., and she.felt the
walkway would encourage this and there should be additional police surv.elliance. It was commented
that the walkway could also negate such congregation.and vandalism because of the easier, access by
law enforcement people. The -subject of light was discussed and Captain Floyd Smith of 81.4 Dayton,
suggested that overhead lights would not be -needed and that lighting along the railing would light
the surface without impairing the view over the walkway. He gave the Shell.Oil dock as an example
where such lights are used. Capt. Smith liked thq idea of the walkway going down.along beach level.
Councilman.Gould cautioned that those sections of the walkway near the water would have to be made
very safe and be well maintained. John McGibbon of 424 3rd Avenue South commented that there already
is considerable access to the beach and that the consideration was the capability of rolling wheelchairs
the entire length of the beach as..opposed to the point of private ownership, and that the values involved
would have to be isolated. He added that he liked the grassy area at the Dayton Street location and it
appeared the walkway would go through that, eliminating part of it. Community DevelopmentDirector
Joe -Wallis said it had been suggested that the east end of the walkway turn and go along the Sunset Ave.
lookout. Councilman Gellert felt that•if this project were built it would encourage an entirely
different type of development along the waterfront, that people would be selling their properties to
more people -oriented developments._ Councilman Carns said the Council would like to encourage the
MOTION: Community.Development Department and others to pursue the idea of the waterfront walkway. A MOTION WAS
THEN MADE BY COUNCILMAN CARNS, SECONDED BY COUNCILMAN GELLERT, THAT.IT WAS THE SENSE OF THE COUNCIL TO
THANK JIM REID FOR THE.WATERFRONT WALKWAY.FEASIBILITY STUDY PRESENTATION. MOTION CARRIED. Mr. Wallis
indicated that -the project must be finished by June 1 and that a copy of the report would be given to
the Council and would be made available to the grantsman on the City Staff.

the Zoning Code. When it went before the Planning Commission the Commission recommended denial, by.a
tie vote broken by the Chairman. The Community Development Department was now recommending that the
Planning Commission action be upheld. Mr. Wallis reviewed the effects that would be expected,.to result

TEMPORARY SECURITY BUILDING OR VEHICLE ON BUILDING SITES WITH A CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT (FILE ZO-2-77)(8:42pm)
Community Development Director Joe.Wallis said this proposed amendment originated with the Staff because
vandalism had been prevalent at construction sites in all zones. He noted.that many builders are putting
trailers or similar units on their construction sites, but the existing Code.does not allow any such
structure. Mr. Wallis discussed the details of the proposed change and recommended it be approved. There
was some discussion regarding the possibility of such structures remaining on the property for extended
periods. The public portion of the hearing was then opened, no one wished to speak and the public portion
was closed. A MOTION WAS MADE BY COUNCILMAN NORDQUIST, SECONDED BY COUNCILMAN CARNS, THAT P.C. RESOLUTION

HEARING WITH DALE HOGGINS ON PROTEST OF SEWER CONNECTION FEE PAYMENT .(9:37 p.m.)
Dale Hoggins said he appreciated having been annexed to the City and appreciated having the sewer service.
He did not question the legality of the ordinances establishing the charges for sewer connections but he
did question their fairness. Because of the different times the main sewer lines were installed, the
costs to connect to them varies, and Mr. Hoggins.said that his sewer connection charge was almost three
times that of some of the people on his block. The line running in front of his home was put in only
a year ago, and that was why the charge was so high. He said he would like to propose that those who
had charges far in excess of their neighbors' charges be given some relief and that the policy be
changed so that sewer lines which are owned by the City.and were not installed by LID would have standard
connection charges. City Attorney Jim Murphy explained how the connection charges were established and
that the ordinance was written on the basis of a Supreme Court decision that "historical costs" be
used as a basis for the charges. Mr. Murphy said-' he ordinance.he prepared established the historical
costs of sewer charges and was done primarily on an LID approach because most of the sewer lines in
Edmonds have been constructed by LID. He said it was a simple fact that the costs had tripled from
1966 to 1975. There was concern expressed for Mr. Noggins' position, but it did not appear that the
Council had the power to adjust the charge. It was suggested that this matter, be continued and that
possibly the Director of Public Works could work up some kind of formula from other historical costs in
the area, and that by working with the City Attorney some relief could be found for Mr..Hoggins.and
three of his neighbors in the same position. A MOTION WAS THEN MADE BY COUNCILMAN CARNS, SECONDED BY
COUNCILMAN ANDERSON, THAT THIS ITEM BE CONTINUED TO JUNE 7, WITH FURTHER INPUT FROM THE DIRECTOR OF
PUBLIC WORKS AND THE CITY ATTORNEY. MOTION CARRIED.
REQUEST FOR CABARET LICENSE FROM ANGELO'S BELLA CASA (9:37 p.m.)
City Clerk Irene Varney Moran reported that.Angelo J. Citoli had made application for a Cabaret Dance
License for Angelo's Bella Casa. Police Chief Foster had indicated no objection to issuance of this
license and'had reported that there had never been a liquor violation at this establishment. A MOTION
WAS MADE BY'COUNCILMAN CARNS, SECONDED BY COUNCILMAN NORDQUIST, TO APPROVE THE REQUEST FOR CABARET
LICENSE FROM ANGELO'S BELLA CASA. MOTION CARRIED. '

REPORT ON BIDS OPENED MAY 10 ON LID 198, PAVING LAUREL WAY (9:40 p.m.) •
Public Works Director Leif Larson reported that three bids had been received, the lowest being
45% over the engineer's estimate, so he recommended.that all bids.be rejected. He said the Public
Works Department is examining various alternatives for proceeding with the work and will make a
MOTION: recommendation to the Council on May 24. A MOTION WAS MADE BY COUNCILMAN CARNS, SECONDED BY
COUNCILMAN ANDERSON, TO REJECT ALL BIDS RECEIVED, PER THE MEMORANDUM FROM THE DIRECTOR OF PUBLIC
WORKS. MOTION.CARRIED.
AMENDMENT TO ENGINEERING CONTRACT FOR SEWER SYSTEMS EVALUATIONS - 201 FACILITY PLANNING STUDY (9:41 pm)
Public Works Director Leif Larson reported by memorandum that the Reid, Middleton & Associates
study had pinpointed various.areas in need of detailed study by smoke testing and television
viewing to determine exact infiltration and inflow points in the "subject project. Mr. Larson
indicated the services of Reid, Middleton were needed to supervise the contractor and compile
the information collected. He said 90% of the financing would come from grants and the remaining
10% from local agency sewer funds. He recommended that the Council authrize the Mayor to execute
the contract with Reid, Middleton in the amount of $14,000. A MOTION WAS MADE BY COUNCILMAN HERB,
SECONDED BY COUNCILMAN GOULD, TO AUTHORIZE THE MAYOR TO EXECUTE THE AMENDMENT TO CONTRACT FOR
ENGINEERING SERVICES FOR A FACILITY PLANNING STUDY WITH REID, MIDDLETON & ASSOCIATES IN THE AMOUNT
OF $14,000. MOTION -CARRIED. Councilman Carns reminded the Public Works Director of a previous
request for review of engineering charges by Reid, Middleton.

,
Item (C) on Consent Aqenda
Councilman Gellert's comment had to do with the microphone system and did not reflect on the proposed
resolution. He had recently been at the United States Senate and noted that the microphone system
they use has the instruments on the bench and when the speaker is ready to talk he connects the
instrument to his upper clothing. Councilman Gellert said it was a magnificent sound system, and
he suggested such a system might be considered when replacing the present one in the Council Chambers.
A MOTION WAS THEN MADE BY COUNCILMAN GELLERT, SECONDED BY COUNCILMAN CARNS, THAT ITEM (C) ON THE
CONSENT AGENDA BE APPROVED, PASSING RESOLUTION 375, TRANSFERRING FUNDS FROM THE CONTINGENCY FUND TO
