3. Moratorium – 100 Year Floodplain
O3.10.8
Resolution No. 4416, adopted November 17, 2008,
established an initial six-month moratorium on the filing,
receipt, and approval of applications for development within
areas of the city located within, in whole or in part,
designated 100 Year Floodplains as determined by the
Federal Emergency Management Agency. A six month
extension of the moratorium is proposed.
City Attorney Heid presented an oral staff report on the
proposed extension of the moratorium. The moratorium
stems from a lawsuit where the National Marine Fisheries
Service (NMFS) sued the Federal Emergency Management
Administration (FEMA) because of its operation of its flood
insurance program alleging that the program was not
sufficiently protective of endangered species. Auburn and
several other cities throughout the State of Washington that
have floodplains within their corporate limits received a
Page 7
City of Auburn Council Meeting Minutes May 4, 2009
letter from FEMA that warned that if the City issues a permit
for construction in the floodplain, the City and developer
may be subject to criminal and civil penalties.
Staff have been in communication with FEMA and NMFS
since last fall. FEMA recently advised that the draft model
ordinance is being routed through their agencies. In order
to continue to limit liability for the City and developers, it is
recommended that the Council extend the moratorium an
additional six months to await the model ordinance.
Mayor Lewis opened the public hearing at 8:32 p.m. There
being no one present to speak regarding the moratorium,
Mayor Lewis closed the hearing.
(See Item No. VIII.B.1, Resolution No. 4476, for further
action on this item.)

Mr. Davis thanked Mayor Lewis for reconvening the Citizen Arterial
Street Task Force to assist the City in looking at the continuing
problem of deteriorating arterial and truck route road surfaces. Mr.
Davis recalled the original report from the Task Force. He noted
that the City moved forward with implementing a one percent tax on
utilities for arterial preservation but did not move forward with the
capital needs. Mr. Davis reported that the Task Force members
have already met and the business community and interested
citizens have come together to identify the key priority routes to
maintain for local trucks. The Task Force urges the Council to
remain open to possible solutions to recondition the arterials and
truck routes.
Nancy Wyatt, President and Chief Operating Officer of the Auburn
Area Chamber of Commerce, 108 South Division Street, Auburn

B. From the Mayor
Mayor Lewis presented a briefing on the 2009 Budget utilizing a
PowerPoint presentation. Mayor Lewis reviewed the annual sales
and use tax revenues for the past six years which reflects a steady
drop in sales and use tax beginning in 2007-2008 in part due to
streamlined sales tax. Although the City receives state mitigation
for the streamlined sales tax, revenues continue to decrease.
Mayor Lewis also displayed a graph of revenues from charges and
services. Revenues from charges for services are cyclical and
dependent on the time of year. Revenue from development and
permitting fees has also steadily decreased and may have leveled
out recently. Mayor Lewis reviewed the real estate excise tax
revenue from 2004-2009, which is now at a lower level than 2004.

in the General Fund and $480,600 in other funds. The 2008
Budget reductions included a 2.5% budget reduction and the
freezing of 22 positions. Amendment 1 to the 2009 Budget
included a reduction in the General Fund of $2,184,475 and
$884,745 in other funds, which included freezing 11.25 positions.
Amendment No. 2 to the 2009 Budget includes union concessions
and unaffiliated reductions, removal of temporary salaries and a
reduction in force (24 positions) reducing the General Fund by
$892,206 and $479,594 from other funds. Mayor Lewis stated with
the reductions already implemented the City can continue to offer
the best level of services possible.
