(Application No. 3-75) The Planning Commission recommends approval of this request because it does conform with the Comprehensive Land Use Plan and that it be conditioned upon the following provisions: 1. That the excavation not exceed the limits as shown on the plans and profiles on file with the application which shall become a part of the permit. ~. That excavation shall begin on the easterly portion (Site No.1) first with no excavation taking place on the westerly portion (Site No.2) until assurances have been filed with the City in the form of a performance bond in the amount of $5,000 guaranteeing the City that excavation will be. completed and restoratio~ of the entire site will be done in conformance with the regulations contained within the permit within 120 days, or excavation has been completed and restoration has been completed upon Site No.1. 3.

At the end of the 5 year period the owner will be required to grade all slopes to a minimum of 1 1/2 to 1 slope and restore the site in conformance with the regulations contained within the permit. 7. The issuance and maintenance of this Special Property Use Permit shall be contingent upon compliance by the petitioner and/or his assigns with the following general conditions and restrictions: A..

The City shall have the right to make inspections of the reclamation site at any reasonable time to determine compliance with the provisions of the permit. The City srlall notify the owner and/or operator of a proposed inspection, lack of such notifiçation shall not be cause for denying the right to inspect.

A performance bond in the amount of one thousand ($l,OOO) dollars per acre guaranteeing restoration of the reclamation site shall be filed with the City Planning Department prior to commencement of grading.

Maximum sound pressure levels shall be as prescribed in Exhibit "A" - Noise Control Regulations. Which exhibit shall be attached to and become a part of the permi t . Dr. Shephard, of 31812 58th Avenue South, made a presentation giving reasons for his request and stating how the project will be carried out. As this was the same presentation made at the Planning Commission Meeting of March 4, 1975, a copy of said minutes will be made a part of the Official Council Minutes. Robert Kline, of 520 Aaby Drive, stated he had no objections to the request per se; however, he wondered if t:he $1,000 per acre bond would be sufficient should the applicant default on ~eeting deadlines or requirements set forth by the Planning Commission. Ted Nickson, 523 Aaby Drive, stated that having attended the Planning commission Meeting two weeks ago, it appears to him tha t the Ci ty is finally fOllowing the Comprehensi ve Land Use Plan and this is the first request of this nature that he feels he could go along with. Mr. Nickson made several comments regarding the procedures used by the Council in calling for this particular public hearing. It was moved by Lea, seconded by Darling, that the Public Hearing be closed. MOTION CARRIED Councilman Darling asked that the wording in Dr. Shephard's request be changed from "Gravel Removal Special Property Use Permit" to "Special Property Use Reclamation Permit". I A rather lengthy discussion followed and the Council voiced concern with the following: (1) Are the amounts asked for-the bonds sufficient? (2) Are there adequate water holding basins for the area? (3) Will seeding of the sites begin within 90 days after completion of each site or upon completion of the entire project? (4) Should , the applicant be able to complete this type of operation within five years? (5) Could the Board of Adjustments, at a later date, allow the applicant to process the sand, gravel and earth materials on the site? (6) What route will be used to haul out the materials? and (7) What other uses would be allowable, in this area, under the SPU Permit? I Mr. George Schuler, Director of Planning & Community Development, gave the following answers to the above questions: (1) The amounts asked for the bonds are £he same as those set by the State and the same as has been requested on other permits. (2) Water coming out of the sky will go into the ground and will not cause erosion of the hill site. He also pointed out that if a housing development goes in the area, then adequate provisions for run off and storm drainage would have to be put in. It was also noted that there are two holding basins on the site. (3) The Planning Department assumes that he will finish site 1 and then within 90 days after applying to begin work on site 2, site 1 will be seeded. (4) Since this is a reclamation project, and different from a gravel removal project, there should be no problems in completing the entire project within the five year period. (5) It was noted that the Board of Adjustments would have to take into consideration the Planning Commission recommendations and probably would not change them. Mike R~ynolds, City Attorney Pro Tem, stated it would depend upon the restrictive recommendations made by the Planning Commission. (6) It was pointed out that Mr. Shephard has an agreement with Standard Mining to haul the materials to the north through Standard Mining property'. Also, as long as the hauling is done outside of the City Limits, the City has no control over the route used; however, should hauling be done within the City, the - Public WQrks Department would have to approve the rOI.!._te. (7) ,!he ªrea is _ presently zoned R-l and if any other use is requested for the property, other than that . allowable under R-l zoning, the applicant would have to apply for a rezone. During the discussion, Councilman Craig asked the Council and Planning & Beautification Committee to consider taxing gravel removal operations. At present, the only fee charged is $50 for the original permit and that does. not even cover costs of the Planning Department to prepare for issuance of a permit. Ted Nickson requested the Planning Staff to provide maps, along with information and recommendations ,distributed at Planning Commission Meetings, to the public. -2- 1454 AUBURN, WASHINGTON MONDAY MARCH 17, 1975 It was moved by F1echsig, seconded by Holman, that the request of Dr. Don Shephard for a Special Property Use Reclamation Permit be approved and the Planning Commission recommendations be concurred with and the City Attorney be instructed to draw up the necessary ordinance. ROLL CALL VOTE: All Councilmen voting YES. MOTION CARRIED Mayor Kersey declared Public Hearing open on Amendments to Chapter 11.22.080 of the Auburn City Code changing the fee for applications in which the Board of Adjust- ments has jurisdiction, from ten dollars to twenty-five dollars, and Chapter 11.24.020 ~ the Auburn City Code changing the fee for applications in which the Planning ~mmission has jurisdiction, from fifty dollars to seventy-five dollars. The Planning Commission recommends denial of the request. I Mayor Kersey pointed out that the Director of Planning & Community Development was in the hospital and unable to attend the last Planning Commission Meeting; therefore, some pertinent information and facts were not presented to the Planning Commission in regard to the proposed increase in fees. . Since that time, the Council has received information pertaining to the costs involved in issuing said permits.and at present the costs are higher than the fees charged to the applicant. It was moved by Craig, seconded by Holman, that the Public Hearing be closed. MOTION CARRIED Mayor Kersey recognized Mr. Kasper, along with the DeMolay Boys. Mr. Kasper announced that the young men were in the audience to learn more about local government. The Mayor asked that the young men be introduced and he then read a proclamation declaring the week of March 16th through March 22, 1975, as DeMolay Week within the City Limits of the City of Auburn and urged all our citizens to join in honoring these fine young people. Mr. Kasper asked that the young men be·excused, as-·it is a school night and the hour is getting late. Mayor Kersey stated we would see the young men from DeMolay on Friday morning and the group left the Council Chambers. Councilman Darling pointed out that the increase in fees for applications to the I Board of Adjustments and Planning Commission has been a part of the 1975 projected revenue and asked the Council to consider this carefully as it will affect the budget. George Schuler also pointed out that the Planning Commission Members have been notified of the information sent out since the last Commission Meeting and they are in agreement with the proposed increases. It was moved by Craig, seconded by Lawler, that amendments to Chapter 11.22.080 of the Auburn City Code changing the fee for applications in which the Board of Adjustments has jurisdiction, from ten dollars to twenty-five dollars, and Chapter 11.24.020 of the Auburn City Code changing the fee for applications in which the Planning Commission has jurisdiction, from fifty dollars to seventy-five dollars, be approved and the City Attorney be instructed to draw up the necessary ordinance. ROLL CALL VOTE: All Councilmen voting YES. MOTION CARRIED CORRESPONDENCE The City Clerk read a Zone Change Application from Herbert Guenther (Application No. 7-75). It was moved by Darling, seconded by Lawler, that the Zone Change Application from Herbert Guenther (Application No. 7-75) and the Zone Change Application from Douglas H. Gwinnett (Application No. 8-75) be referred to the Planning Commission for recommendations. I MOTION CARRIED AUDIENCE PARTICIPATION . Mrs. Arlene Francis of 2308 "H~I Street S.E., and -a number of other residents from the area, again spoke in regard to a speeding problem on "H" Street S.E. She stated that they had attended the last Public Safety Committee Meeting and then spoke with the Chief of Police on the following day, in regard to the problem. Chief Scyler had asked that they take a survey of the property owners and Mrs. Francis stated she has a petition/survey signed by 29 residents, 26 out of the 29 are in favor of speed bumps being installed, and therefore they request speed bumps be installed on "H" Street S.E., between 22nd and 23rd Streets S.E. -3- 455 AUBURN, WASHINGTON MONDAY MARCHl7, 1975 After considerable discussion, Mayor Kersey stated there is still a liability problem connected with installing speed bumps and he also pointed out that a precedent would be set if speed bumps are installed on this street. He therefore asked that he be allowed to work on this problem and he noted that solving a problem by creating other problems is not the answer.
