PUBLIC HEARINGS
1. D. M. YOUNG CONSTRUCTION - PRELIMINARY PLAT - RIVERPARK ADDITION - APPL. P-4-81
Mayor Kersey declared the public hearing open on the request of D. M. Young Con-
struction Co., Inc. for approval of a preliminary plat to be known as Riverpark
Addition located on a parcel of land 20 acres in size located north of Brannan
Park abutting the Green River. The Planning Commission recommends approval of
this preliminary plat to be known as Riverpark Addition, as presented, provided
the typical street section is changed to reflect the use of Type "A" or "D"
cementconcrete curb and gutter constructed to City standard specifications on
both sides and that the sidewalks be installed on at least one side of the private
streets and shall be cement concrete. Consideration should be given to any
requirements of the Public Works and Fire Departments. The approval of this
request is subject to the final approval of Application No. 5-81 by the City
Council.
Dave Young, 3402 "C" St. N.E., explained the concept of zero lot line. He said
it was nice for the owners because rather than multi -family arrangements a family
could have some land with lot. The structures would have a common lot line.
' He said the purpose of the 28 foot street was to reduce costs which would be
passed along to the purchaser. He felt there was a need for this type of alterna-
tive housing because of the high costs to get into a home today. He addressed
the concern expressed over the width of the street by noting the loop road system
is.such only those people living there would be using the street. He added
the four parking spaces per unit plus one side of the street for parking should'
mitigate any problems with the street width. As far as concerns over a sub-
standard development, Young felt.the public wanted this kind of housing because
of the low cost.
Jack Ewing', 622 S. Central, Kent, engineer of the .project, stated this street
concept had been accepted by King County and Kent. He said there was more
control over streets where the homes were owned rather than rented as in a
mobile home park or condo. He also noted the lots are wider than'a normal
duplex lot.
It was moved by Craig, seconded by Hitchcock, to close the public hearing.
MOTION CARRIED
D. M. YOUNG CONSTRUCTION -CUP - APPL. 5-81
Because action on the request for a Conditional Use Permit was required before
action could be taken on the preliminary plat by Mayor Kersey opened dicussion
for final action on the request of D. M. Young Construction Co., Inc. for a
Conditional Use Permit to construct a zero lotline subdivision on a parcel
of land 20.1 acres in size lying between a point 450 feet east of "I" St. N.E
and the Green River and lying north of Brannan Park. (Hearing held 4-6-81)
Craig stated he saw two issues before the Council.. One, with the Conditional
Use Permit, approval of the concept. And, seconded, with the preliminary plat,
the actual laying out of the plat. He felt it was not necessary to accept both
and wanted to clarify approval of the Conditional Use Permit does not involve
street width just concept. He stated he did not have any problems with a zero
lot line since similiar developments were prevalent back east plus he thought
it was a good way to economize giving an owner some property rather than having
to get into a condo situation.

AUBURN WASHINGTON MONDAY MAY 4, 1981
Larson asked what would prevent this development from becoming an instant slum
like a similar project on Lea Hill. Young responded that a number of reasons
should prevent it: (1) The project is not being developed in the same low cost
sense; it was a Federal program which did not produce the results even they had
wanted, (2) Hope to.develop a standard constructed unit at a low cost, will
have same features as single family home, i.e. fireplaces, baths, additional
bedrooms, (3) To alleviate off-street parking problems very strict covenents
would be a part of the sale, (4) Lots will be landscaped before occupancy so
residents couldn't ruin it.
Lea noted the developer was now proposing to put in a sidewalk with the 28 foot
street in lieu of a 34 foot street. He reported the Street Committee's concern
was in permitting a substandard street, relative to width, be built and then down
the road the.City would be petitioned to make the street a public street. He
also expressed the Committee's concern about the inverted "Y" or "V" drainage
system. He felt it would be impossible to enforce the parking on one side only.
He said the Committee's recommendation was to go to a 34' wide street. He wondered
why the petitioner was back to 28'. Ewing responded the original proposal was
28' and that at the meetings he only said he would go back to the petitioner with
the recommendation of the Committee. He also noted .in talking with Engineering
staff he had learned that it is rare a street like this would be turned over to
the City.
Roegner said when the street situation was reviewed by the Public Safety Committee
the plans said 32'. He asked Battalion Chief Jim Gintz his thoughts about a'28'
wide street if private vehicles were parked on one side. Gintz replied if there
were parked cars on the other side they probably wouldn't be able to get through.
He added it would depend on the curves.
Roegner said the Planning Committee recommendation to approve the request was based
on approval of the concept while the Street Committee's recommendation for denial
was based on the street width. The different recommendations were not in conflict.
He asked Young what the average cost of the homes would be. Young replied there
were four basic plans with the top of the line in the mid to upper $50,000's. Young
added he would like to clear up a point on enforcement of the parking on one '
side only. He said George Schuler had recommended a way to solve the situation
was to draw up strict covenents on the homeowner's association with fines levied
if someone parks in the fire lane.
Roegner stated the point he wanted to make was how much difference would there
be in the cost for a house if the street was 34' wide instead of 28' wide. Young
replied that his letter in response to Roegner's letter asking this question
was the price of the entire development would be increased approximately $80,000
to $100,000.
Hitchcock called for a point of order since the discussion was on the Conditional
Use Permit the width of the road would be better resolved in action on the plat
approval.
It was moved by Craig, seconded by Hitchcock, to approve the request of D. M.
Young Construction Co. for a Conditional. Use Permit to construct a zero lot line
subdivision, Application 5-81, and instruct the City Attorney to draw up the
necessary ordinance to include a one year time limit on the permit.

Hitchcock said he had talked with the Police Chief about policing the streets
in the proposed development. He said the Chief's response was there was a bit of
a problem on private property unless an owner had requested assistance. Hitchcoc,
asked Jim Gintz if it would be awkward to put the fire hydrants on the opposite
side of the sidewalk where there would be no parking. Gintz said he didn't see
any problem with the placement of the fire hydrants theoretically, however, the
problem would be who would move thecars in case of fire. Hitchcock said if it
was written into the covenents the Police Department could remove a car. Bereiter
said he would go a step farther and be sure this area was designated as a fire
lane.

AUBURN. WASHINGTON MONDAY MAY 4, 1981
Larson questioned why the plans indicated a 40' right-of-way when they were
requesting a 28' street plus 5' for a sidewalk and 1' for a curb. He wondered
if it could be expanded for two sidewalks. Young responded the success of
the project depended on the costs incurred and after a certain point there
would be no advantage to the consumer. The 28' street would keep the costs
down.
Hitchcock asked if sidewalks on both sides would affect the four parking spaces.
Young replied certainly the off-street parking would be reduced.
' Craig asked if the street went to a 40 foot right of way would it reduce the
units. Young responded it would not affect the density per se but would affect
the cost which might make the unit unmarketable.
Lea asked if there was enough footage to come up with a 34' street. He noted
that Forest Villa had no sidewalks and since then a sidewalk ordinance has been
enacted. He felt it would be difficult to tell. other developers to stay within
the 34' street width. He saw it as a trend.
Flechsig asked for clarification as to whether the Council was dealing with a
28' steet with 5' sidewalk or a 32' street with a 4' sidewalk. Ewing answered
the Conditional Use Permit was always 28' with a 5' sidewalk.
Roegner said he was pleased with the concept and he felt it was something the
City needed to look at. However, he couldn't overcome his concern about the
streets and encouraged the developer to go over it again.
Craig wondered if the trade-off . to go to a 32' street would mean the
loss of the four parking spaces and everyone would be parking in the street.
He felt there was a real need for mid -priced housing and the Council shouldn't
lose sight of this objective. He added if these were at any time going to become
through streets, he would be against it. Craig said he agreed with Young's idea
to approve on a trial basis and give the development a chance to prove itself..
He suggested the Council not send him away but help him resolve street width
problem.
It was moved by Craig, seconded by Roegner, to refer to the Street Committee
1, for additional data on the street widths of the Riverpark Addition plat.
Hitchcock asked if the City can dictate the width of the private street. Bereiter
replied yes if it was platted.
Young suggested an alternative rather than delay the approval of his request:
he could provide a 34' wide street on the main loop road if the Council would
approve a 28' width on the dead end roads.

Nickelsen, 701 "F" N.E., was in the audience and said it was because his property
had a four-plex and single family home on it. He wanted to sell the single family
home and needed plat approval for this reason.
It was moved by Larson, seconded by Craig, to approve the Nickelsen Addition to
Auburn preliminary and final plat and that the Mayor and City Clerk be authorized

AUDIENCE PARTICIPATION
L.I.D. 310 - ORDINANCE NO. 3631
Bob Smythe, attorney, 29 1st Street N.E., representing Ernest Rogers in reference
to Ordinance No. 3631 on the assessments for L.I.D. 310. He stated they were against
the method of assessment as it presented a burden in comparison to the benefits.
They felt the mode of assessment was equitable. He gave the Council a computation
which they felt was equitable in a per acreage cost.
James Chinn, URS, explained further the assessments as put together by their
firm.
Craig stated when the matter had been referred back the Utility Committee, their
conclusion was the assessments have been consistently . figured based on a frontage
plus area charge. He noted the area charge had been reduced due to amount of usable
property. He said the assessment is figured by an area charge of what is usable
plus frontage. He stated Rogers has a large amount of front footage and even though
some of his property lies in the floodway there are still uses it can be put to.
He felt there was never a way to be totally equitable for everyone.
He felt Rogers' assessment was as equitable as it could be made.

MILL CREEK CORRIDOR
Ken Balduff, 410 Western Street, spoke in opposition to the recommendation to adopt
a 140 foot corridor. He felt adoption of this corridor would be encouraging more than
the City would be solving. He said the recommendation for adoption of the corridor,
they felt, was made without proper justification because there is no evidence to
show why the recommendation was being made other than the sewer line is approximately
140 ft. from the West Valley Highway. He noted three departments; Fisheries, Game, and
King County Planning 6 Development did recommend and authorize a 250 foot corridor.
He added the public hearing was held,in their opinion, with short notice. He stated
adoption was premature.
