19781003 City Council Minutes• September 26, 1978 - continued HEARING ON EDMONDS GOAL - WATERFRONT 2'7'7 1 MOTION: 1 Councilman Carns said the basic idea of -the -Council was to.have the waterfront as much as possible for public use, not using it for such things as residential facilities. He said he was hopeful that a bond issue in.1979 would provide some money for acquisition of waterfront property. Councilman Clement com- mented that the goals could be attained without the City actually owning the property. Laura Hall of 1140 Edmonds St. expressed concern regarding the hazard to pedestrians crossing the Burlington Northern Railway tracks in order to get to the waterfront. She felt people should not be encouraged to.walk to the waterfront when such a hazard exists. She suggested the railroad be approached about burying the railroad through this area. Robert Pantley, a member of the°:Shorelines Advisory Committee, noted that the Port will be developing its property and that should be considered. He said the Shorelines Advisory Committee would like the people to have the feeling that the waterfront area is available to them. He said the Committee is trying to mitigate the traffic hazards. Dick Slye of 260 Beach P1. said he could not visualize people going down to the waterfront to shop because the weather is only good three months. of the year. Leonard Friesendahl of 181 W. Dayton did.not agree with the proposal to eliminate residential use from the waterfront area. He agreed with Mr. Slye that the weather would not be conducive to attracting shoppers to that area. Rachel Bell, a member of the Shorelines Advisory Committee, expressed the view that the area between Dayton and the ferry dock should be kept as it is. Mayor Harrison commented that he thought everything would remain about the same down to Dayton with the exception of the Friesendahl cabins. No one else in the audience wished to speak, and the public discussion was closed. It was noted that on October 10 the Council will be considering P.C. Resolution 600 regarding permitted uses and development in the CW zone. Councilman Gould noted that he did not want to see any changes in the Policy Plan. PROPOSED ORDINANCE TO ESTABLISH FEES FOR ARCHITECTURAL REVIEW BOARD MAJOR PROJECTS This item was continued from September 19 at which time the Council asked for a comparison of costs for permits for a normal building in various jurisdictions. Community. Development Director John LaTourelle submitted the requested figures but noted that different jurisdictions compute their fees differently. He said he could not calculate without an undue amount of effort what it actually costs to process a building permit. He noted that the fee his department had recommended for notification of major Architec- tural Review Board projects had included only the costs attributed to notification --not to the review or other activities that go along with the process. Mayor Harrison noted that there are some charges that. were not included in,the comparison breakdown. He felt this matter should be postponed until the whole fee schedule can be reviewed. Robert Pantley asked that he be included in reviewing the one-step permit process when it is developed. Councilman Clement responded that the process will involve public hearings so Mr. Pantley would have the opportunity at that time to review it. He added that he was not sure he liked a task force approach to all problems, especially when the same members are involved. There was some discussion as to who actually would benefit from the notifications regarding major Architectural Review Board projects, the applicant or public. There was no general consensus. COUNCILMAN NAUGHTEN THEN MOVED, SECONDED BY COUNCILWOMAN ALLEN, TO UPHOLD P.C. RESOLUTION 602, RECOMMENDING DENIAL OF ESTAB- LISHMENT OF A FEE FOR ALL ARCHITECTURAL REVIEW BOARD APPLICATIONS FOR MAJOR PROJECTS. MOTION CARRIED. There was no further business to come before the Council, and the meeting was adjourned at 11:10 p.m. IRENE VARNEY MORAN, Vty Clerk October 3, 1978 The regular meeting of the Edmonds City Council was called to order at 7:30 p.m. by Mayor Pro tem Tom Carns in the Council Chambers of the Edmonds Civic Center.

COUNCILMAN GOULD MOVED, SECONDED BY COUNCILWOMAN ALLEN, TO APPROVE THE BALANCE OF THE CONSENT AGENDA. MOTION CARRIED. The balance of the MOTION: Consent Agenda contained the following: , (A) Roll call. (B) Approval of Minutes of September 26, 1978.

PROPOSED ORDINANCE RE PLANNING COMMISSION [ITEM (F)'on Consent Agenda] City Attorney John Wallace asked that this proposed ordinance be withdrawn as a master section was being written.governing all boards, bodies, and commissions except the Board of Adjustment, and the ordinances regarding each would be forwarded when the master section is adopted. REPORT ON BIDS OPENED SEPTEMBER 21, 1978 FOR FIVE CORNERS TANK PROJECT [Item (G) on Consent Agenda This item was continued from September 26. Councilman Nordquist said he was concerned about the bidding procedure after having contacted the bidders on the water tank. He said in some areas the bidders felt there was an interpretation question and their general attitude was that the.bidding was loose. Councilman Nordquist said the City has a reputable firm in the community but he thought, as far as the bidding process was concerned, the City was not in a business relationship with the business community. He said he was not happy with the bidding process and he felt similar bidding processes should be tightened up in the future. Public Works Director Leif Larson responded that all bidders were bidding against the same specifications, that American Water Works standards and American Public Works Association standards are used and water tanks are well covered by these standards. He said the specifications and drawings were such that all bidders should be able to bid on an equal basis. He said any changes are done by written addendum, not on telephone conversa- tions, and from time to time when there have been questions they had made addendums to clarify the specifications. He felt there was no reason not to accept the low bidders. He said from his experience unsuccessful bidders look for reasons they did not get a bid. Councilman Nordquist stressed that he had contacted the bidders, they had not contacted him. Mr. Larson said that on the pumping equipment and telemetering portion of this contract it was unique and another like it • probably had never been bid. He again said he felt there was no reason not to award to the low bidders. Councilman Gould then questioned the representatives of Reid, Middleton & Associates regarding one of the challenges and after discussion he felt it was apparent that the two low bidders should receive the contracts, but he said future contracts should be more specific if possible. Councilman Herb also had some questions which were answered by the Reid -Middleton representatives. Attorney John Wallace was satisfied that the bids of the low bidders were satis- factory. Some of the,Counci] members asked for more detailed bid reports in the future. COUNCILMAN MOTION: CARNS MOVED TO APPROVE THE REPORT ON BIDS AND AWARD THE CONTRACTS TO THE LOW BIDDERS, LINDBROOK CONSTRUCTION ON SCHEDULE I IN THE AMOUNT OF $293,934, AND PITTSBURGH DesMOINES ON SCHEDULE II IN THE AMOUNT OF $287,700. COUNCILMAN NORDQUIST SECONDED THE MOTION FOR DISCUSSION. There was no one in the audience from Waterworks Inc., one of the challengers. There was no further discussion. THE MOTION CARRIED. At this time Mayor Harrison said he would like to interrupt to let the representative from Liberty TV Cable, Inc., make his report (which was an agenda item) as he had another commitment. FINAL REPORT FROM LIBERTY TV CABLE, INC. Bob Watson read the final report-which.had been written by Ted Lovett, Manager.of Liberty TV Cable, Inc. The report indicated that construction was completed in the City of Edmonds so as to be able to serve any residence in the City of Edmonds and that service would not be denied for any reason that is.not provided in the CATV permit or the franchise. Councilman Gould asked what those reasons would include. Mr. Watson responded that.there were several, such as, if a person is on a private road and Liberty cannot get a permit to go over that easement they will deny service, or if a person wants to convert an aerial service to undergrounding and is not willing to pay the service charge it would be denied. Councilman Carns was satisfied with the report but suggested to Mr. Watson that in the future Liberty TV Cable should understand that the Council means to enforce the. terms of the franchise. • REPORT ON BIDS OPENED SEPTEMBER 21, 1978 FOR STREET OVERLAY PROJECT LItem (H) on Consent Agenda] This item was continued from September 26 at which time the Council had directed that the Staff investigate previous commitments made in the Doces contract rezone for the improvement of 242nd St. S.W. Investigation revealed there was an agreement of participation by Doces, as well as another from the recent John Boucher contract rezone and a performance bond from First Serve Racquet Club. City Engineer Fred Herzberg said he recommended formation of an LID consisting of these participants at stated assessments totaling $4,153.24, with the City of Edmonds paying the remainder of the cost of improving 242nd St. S.W., but that the City go ahead with the contract while there is good weather. He felt the paperwork could be completed while the work was being accomplished. City Attorney John Wallace advised that could not be done. Several suggestions were discussed, including doing it without an LID but with an agreement between the concerned MOTION: parties. COUNCILMAN CARNS MOVED THAT THE BID BE LET TO ASSOCIATED SAND AND GRAVEL COMPANY, THE ONLY BIDDER, IN THE AMOUNT OF $86,524.48 AS BROKEN DOWN IN THE REPORT, AND THAT THE CITY ATTORNEY BE INSTRUCTED TO NEGOTIATE WITH DOCES ENTERPRISES FOR THEIR SHARE OF PARTICIPATION, FOLLOWING THE RECOMMENDATIONS OF THE STAFF. COUNCILMAN NORDQUIST SECONDED THE MOTION. THE MOTION CARRIED. MAYOR Mayor Harrison introduced Dan Prinz, the new Assistant Police Chief, and gave a resume of his qualifications. COUNCIL Councilman Naughten noted that Community Development Director John LaTourelle had advised him that as a result of last week's Council action the requirement of notification of Architectural Review Board major projects had been deleted. Mr. LaTourelle, however, advised that as a matter of policy the Planning Department will notify for such items. 0 October 3, 1978 - continued 2 / 9 Councilman Gould reported on the September 27 Planning Commission meeting. The Planning Commission had reviewed the Staff's recommendation regarding density in the downtown area. Councilman Gould suggested that the Council carefully read the minutes of'that meeting as there was a large amount of public input. Councilman Carns referred to his memorandum regarding a reception for members of boards and com- missions. He asked for checks from the Council members at next week's meeting. AUDIENCE Ed Terney of 7703 200th S.W. had two complaints. He said in spite of the City's leash law there were dogs running around his neighborhood at all hours. He also complained of speeding traffic in the early hours. He said the police had been effective during the day but around 2:00 a.m. there are no patrols there and the cars are continually racing through the area. Assistant Police Chief Dan Prinz was asked during what hours the Animal Control Officer is on duty, and he responded that a new officer will be added shortly and there should then be an Animal Control Officer on duty from 8:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m., six days a week. He made note of Mr. Terney's complaints. HEARING ON APPEAL FROM P.C. RESOLUTION 603 RECOMMENDING DENIAL TO REZONE PROPERTY LOCATED AT 520 MAPLE ST. FROM RMH TO BC (Virginia Evans - File R-7-78) Assistant City Planner Mary Lou Block showed slides of the Maples Apartments, the property under consideration. It presently is used as an 8-unit apartment structure. Mrs. Evans proposed to contract rezone it to enable her to use it as 8 office units. There are 8 parking spaces which were adequate at the time the building. was constructed, but if constructed as an apartment building now it would require 16 parking spaces. If constructed.:asran..offi'ce�bui.lding it would require 11 parking spaces. Mrs. Evans requested the rezone because office space is difficult to find in Edmonds at a reasonable price. She has a business., herself, for which she needs office space. • She indicated she would not evict tenants but would replace the apartments with offices as attrition occurred. She was willing to pay.into the in -lieu parking fund for parking space she could not * furnish. The surrounding properties, although zoned BC, are developed as RM except for the BC development to the west. The Engineering Department had determined she could not provide additional parking on the site. They recommended denial because the parking would be.a problem. The Planning Division.recommended denial because the application did not meet the criteria- established for a rezone. Mrs. Block reviewed the rezone criteria. She said the application is not supported by substantial changes in the neighborhood that would warrant such change, it does not conform to the direction in the Comprehensive Plan, and the applicant did not prove there is a higher need for office property in the City than for residential property. The public portion of .the hearing was opened. Bill Goulder of 523 Maple said a petition had been submitted to the Planning Commission with about 40 signatures in opposition to the rezone. He said there had been no petition for it and the appli- cant and her son were the.only people at the hearing in favor ot.it. Virginia Evans, the applicant, said one reason she felt the building was not strictly residential.any longer wa's that its total outlook is over the service station at 5th and Maple where they allow garbage trucks to park over- night, causing flies and odors, and that her tenants constantly complain to her about the condition. She said she would be willing to sign a statement that none of the tenants would be evicted, and then at the time they 'left she would convert the apartments .to�offices. She said the tenants are mostly elderly and would be better in a building with an'elevator but she had investigated putting in an elevator and it could not be done. She mentioned that she could convert the building to condominiums. She said. the Planning Commission felt there was more of a need for residential space than office space, but she disagreed. Councilman Naughten felt there should be some relief from the garbage truck situation, and Community Development Director John LaTourelle said he would look into the situation. Jessie Yost of 517 Alder stated that the garbage trucks had been parking there for years and others in the neighborhood had not noticed odors or flies. She asked what else could be included if this were rezoned to BC. Mrs. Block explained that the application was for a contract • rezone so nothing except what was stated would be allowed. Bill Goulder described the bad parking situation at that:location, and Mrs. Evans again said she.would be happy to pay into the in -lieu parking fund. The public portion of the hearing was closed. COUNCILMAN CARNS MOVED THAT THE CITY MOTION: COUNCIL UPHOLD P.C. RESOLUTION 602,1 RECOMMENDING DENIAL OF.THE PROPOSED CONTRACT REZONE R-7-78, BASED ON THE FOLLOWING: .THIS PROPOSAL DOES NOT CONFORM TO THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN, THERE HAVE NOT BEEN SUBSTANTIAL CHANGES IN THIS PARTICULAR AREA THAT WOULD JUSTIFY A REZONE, THE PROPERTIES TO THE EAST, NORTH, AND SOUTH CURRENTLY HAVE MULTI -FAMILY USES, AND THERE IS A BAD PARKING PROBLEM IN.THAT AREA THAT WOULD BE INTENSIFIED BY ADOPTION OF THE PROPOSAL. COUNCILMAN NAUGHTEN SECONDED THE MOTION, SAYING HE UNDERSTOOD THE APPLICANT'S NEED, BUT HE FELT THE ARGUMENTS AGAINST THE REZONE WERE STRONGER THAN HER NEED. Councilman Gould noted a typographical error in the Planning Commission resolution, in that the current zoning designation and that proposed were transposed. THE MOTION THEN CARRIED, WITH COUNCILMAN HERB VOTING NO. Councilman Herb said he did not think anyone would be hurt by the proposal. HEARING ON AMENDMENT TO PLAT OF "BROOKVIEW" Assistant City Planner Mary Lou Block showed slides of the site, some reflecting.the site before construction of improvements and others after the gully on the site had been.cleaned out.and partially filled. Under the terms of the plat approval the gully was to be preserved except for what was necessary to construct a common access road on Lot 9. The applicant now was asking to be permitted to fill the gully to a point approximately 10' easterly of the west line of Lot 7 and to be permitted to construct a common driveway for Lots 6 and 7 along the east line of Lot 7. He had stated in his.application that the steep walls of the gully and its proximity to 175th St. S.W. posed.a threat to the lateral stability of the roadway therein and that the nearness of the gully to 175th St. S.W. presented an unnecessary hazard to motorist and pedestrian traffic, as well as to children tempted to venture into or play in the gully. The question was asked as to whether the present condition of the site was a result of improper action on the part of the builder. Mayor Harrison said it was his - opinion that it was not, that when you put in new roads as he had to do it is impossible to keep the site as it was. City Engineer Fred Herzberg demonstrated on a.map the extent of the fill that the applicant was requesting. The public'portion of the hearing was opened. • *See correction October 10, 1978 (p. 281, under CONSENT AGENDA) October 3, 1978 - continued • Jerry Lovell of Lovell-Sauerland and Associates, Inc., engin had asked to fill the ravine.torthe extent they now were ask to be cleaned out and that it had no landscaping or aestheti maintain the ravine, filling some of it to provide room for they had 10 lots at that time but in finalizing they dropped plagued with this overgrown gully that threatens the slope a required for access to 4 of the homes. He said the gully is everyone. He proposed to construct a rockery at the end of and the existing slopes. Jurgen Sauerland of the same firm built on fill, as they were able to buy additional property He said all they had done to the ravine was to clean it out, one road on one side of the ravine and another on the other. something that is appealing. John Davis of 7708 171st S.W. under construction reflected in the slides. He had lived ab years and knew there had been refuse and chunks of concrete also, would object if the builders were trying to fill the r from there on it has the appearance of a natural ravine, but than a ditch. He saw no sense in having an easement road th He said with the easement road and the setback the neighbors some of their view. He felt that with the proper landscaoin !ers for the project, said they originally ng. He said they knew the ravine had value, but they were required to in access to be constructed. He said a lot and now had 9 lots but were id the stabi 1 tty of the private. road a hazard to pedestrians, motorists, ;he proposed fill to retain that fill ;aid the roads on the property are not ;o add to the plat for right-of-way. and he felt it was ridiculous to have He said they were trying to create ;aid he was the buyer of the house ►ut three blocks from the site for six 'thrown into the ravine. He said he, ivine further than they are, because the area being considered was no more ,ough his neighbors' yards to his. homes would be forced back to lose i and access the apDlicant's DroDosal would be a much better situation. Frank Leifer, the applicant, said he was not gaining anything dollarwise by this --that it was costing him $6,000 to fill the ravine. But he felt it was worth the extra expense as it would eliminate danger to the children and future problems for the City. City Attorney John Wallace called the Council's attention to the fact that the previous declaration of no significant adverse environmental impact filed by the applicant covered a review of a fill proposal not to exceed fill in the east 200' of the gully and any proposal that would exceed that would need an environmental review before action could be taken. He said 2,500 cubic yards in the east 200' would be permitted and the Council could approve a proposal of that scope. Mr. Sauerland said they did not want.to exceed that. Mrs. Paul O'Brien of 7812 171st S.W. said the lateral support had been destroyed on some trees which the builders had agreed to save where they extended 175th St. She said the street had been torn up since April and she would like to know when it would be paved and how they intended to retain the bank supporting the trees. Mr. Sauerland said they tried diligently to narrow the road as much as possible, moving it as far as possible to the north in order to save the trees. Community Development Director John LaTourelle said an inordinate amount of time had been spent on this by the Engineering and Planning Staff, all of them having been to the site about five times. He said the limitation designated by Mr. Wallace because of the environmental declaration was a surprise .to his Staff this evening and in no way was meant as any kind of trap. He felt a new checklist would only come to the same conclusion anyway. Councilman Gould felt the plat presented was very different from what the Council had approved. Mr. LaTourelle said it had gone back through the Planning Commission before coming again to the Council. Mr. Lovell said the changes had been worked out wi.th the Staff and in some cases actually were suggested by the Staff. He said he was trying to minimize the impact and had not taken down trees. He felt the trees discussed'posed a hazard, but he said the City Staff did not. The public portion of the hearing was then closed. Councilman Clement commented that the Council may have caused some of.the problems here because MOTION: they had relaxed restrictions when approving the plat. COUNCILWOMAN ALLEN MOVED TO ACCEPT THE (Failed) RECOMMENDATION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION, PROVIDED THE FILL DOES NOT EXCEED 200'. COUNCILMAN NAUGHTEN SECONDED THE MOTION BECAUSE HE FELT THE.SITUATION AS IT EXISTS IS A HAZARD. A ROLL CALL VOTE WAS TAKEN, WITH COUNCIL MEMBERS ALLEN, NAUGHTEN, AND HERB VOTING YES, AND COUNCIL MEMBERS CLEMENT, NORDQUIST, GOULD, AND CARNS VOTING NO. MOTION FAILED. Councilman Clement was.concerned that the ravine was not as it was at the beginning of the construction process, and he asked what power they had to correct that situation. Mayor Harrison said he felt the existing fill as it then stood was not unreasonable to provide what was on the map showing the lots as originally indicated. Councilman Carns suggested that as a trade-off they could landscape what they had filled and provide sidewalks. Mr. Sauerland said they had not filled any more than what had been approved by the Council --that they had not filled what they were now requesti.hg'.the Council.to approve, and the road is where it was given approval to be. Mayor Harrison said there was an evident safety hazard although perhaps it was not so evident before the road was improved. He also noted that if the road remained as it was the ravine would not be maintained by either the owner of Lot 7 or Lot 8, but if it were filled it would be maintained. Councilman Clement noted that in removing the greenery the ravine is deeper than that it had appeared. He also noted that with the removal of the greenery anything that would have slowed down the water was gone. John Davis asked to be recognized again. He said he was being left, as a home owner with two small childre, with a definite safety hazard. He said no one in the audience had objected to the filling He said the Council was dealing with philosophical questions but he was being left with a ditch. He felt it should be filled and that the developer should landscape it. Councilman Gould advised him that at the first hearing there had been citizens giving testimony opposite to his. Councilman Naughten said the Staff had approved -.this, as had the Planning Commission, and the neighbors wanted it done, and it presently caused a hazard. Mr. Leifer said he would be willing to landscape the bank but the rest would be landscaped by the homeowners. Public Works Director Leif Larson said that ravine had always been there, but it was an attractive hazard before there were people living there, and it now was a hazard because of the people. He said it is already an unnatural situation anyway because it had been filled partially some years ago. He said it could be filled as proposed by the applicant or partially filled as his Staff had proposed, and he thought the applicant's MOTION: proposal would provide for more maintenance by future owners. COUNCILMAN CARNS MOVED, SECONDED .BY COUNCILMAN NAUGHTEN, TO APPROVE THE AMENDMENT TO THE PLAT OF BROOKVIEW AS PROPOSED, AND THAT THE ROCKERY BE APPROVED TO STANDARDS SET BY THE CITY ENGINEER, AND ABOVE THAT ROCKERY THE APPLICANT WILL LANDSCAPE UP TO THE FINISHED GRADE. MOTION CARRIED, WITH COUNCILMAN GOULD VOTING NO, AND WITH COUNCILMEN CLEMENT AND NORDQUIST ABSTAINING. REPORT.
