II. CITIZEN INPUT, PUBLIC HEARINGS & CORRESPONDENCE A. Public Hearings 1. 1997-~00~ Six Year Transportation Improvement Plan 04.9.3 The public hearing is to review the work accomplished under each Six Year Transportation Improvement Program to determine current city street needs, and to adopt a revised and extended comprehensive transportation improvement program. Mayor Booth opened the public hearing on the 1997-2002 Six Year Transportation Improvement Plan. City Engineer Dennis Dowdy and Traffic Engineer Steve Mullen presented the staff report. City Engineer Dowdy explained the City annually updates the Six Year Transportation Improvement Plan, and by law must file the updated Plan with the State Department of Transportation. The purpose of the Plan is to set forth the transportation improvements the City anticipates constructing within the next six years, The annual update also informs neighboring jurisdictions of the City's construction schedule for purposes of coordination, compatibility, and meeting consistency requirements of the Growth Management Act. City Engineer Dowdy explained that this year staff developed a computerized model utilizing existing land use data and anticipated future land uses and calibrated the model to existing conditions and to the future six years of growth. The model was then used to predict future transportation deficiencies and improvement projects which are included on the Six Year Transportation Improvement Page 2 City of Auburn Council Meeting Minutes August 5, 1996 Program chart. The Public Works Committee reviewed the projects, and by using objective scoring criteria together with subjective criteria, scored the projects for priority. The chart includes prioritized projects and also a financially constrained package. Mr. Dowdy also noted that the Transportation Improvement Program review also included the identification of projects which are a result of the impact of the reopening of Stampede Pass. These projects are not identified for funding by the City as other funding is anticipated for the projects; however, they will be included in the Transportation Improvement Program reported to the State. Phillip Jenkins, 910 "W" Place NW, Auburn, WA Mr. Jenkins suggested that with the construction of the new cinema complex at the Supermall, the City install a traffic signal at the Interurban Trail to allow bicycle traffic to cross. He reported vehicles have been parked on the Interurban Trail near Emerald Downs which block bicycle traffic on the trail. Mr. Jenkins requested that a sidewalk be included with the construction of the street to Evergreen Heights Elementary School. City Engineer Dowdy advised that the read to Evergreen Heights Elementary is under plan review, and a graveled shoulder is planned for pedestrians. Mr. Jenkins indicated he prefers the construction of a sidewalk rather than a graveled shoulder. City Engineer Dowdy added that staff is in the process of finalizing a Nonmotorized Plan, and he anticipates the City Council will consider the Plan by this fall. The Nonmotorized Plan projects will be included in next Six Year Transportation Improvement Program. Ed Faton, 920 8th Street NE, Auburn, WA Mr. Eaton inquired as to the future plans for 8th Street NE near Fred Meyer, and whether any plans exist for an overpass at 17th Street SE connecting it to the Supermall area. City Engineer Dowdy reported that a corridor analysis of 8th Street NE is planned for next year to determine pedestrian thoroughfare and the addition of a left turn lane. City Engineer Dowdy reported there are no immediate plans for improvements to 17th Street SE, although across-city access will most likely be a discussion item when the Page 3 City of Auburn Council Meeting Minutes August 5, 1996 Burlington Nodhem Railroad presents their rail yard proposal. Michael David Stanley. Sr,, 2614 "N" Street SE, Auburn, WA Mr. Stanley questioned the funding source for any improvements required by increased Burlington Northern rail traffic, and whether the City plans to enforce a safety committee for the Burlington Northern Railroad when it reopens its rail yard in Auburn. Planning and Community Development Director Krauss explained that the City is working with other communities to bring the Burlington Northern issue before the State Legislature and the United States Congress. A serious consideration for the Tacoma- Seattle corridor is a project similar to the Alameda Corridor in California. The project would consist of a full grade separation for the entire corridor. Funding would come from the federal government and Washington State via a gas tax increase. It is unclear at this point whether Burlington Northern will contribute towards the cost of the grade separation project. Mr. Stanley reiterated his suggestion for a safety committee when the Burlington Northern Railroad reopens its rail yard in Auburn. Planning and Community Development Director Krauss reported that the Burlington Northern Railroad is deferring a decision on the Auburn yard for at least two years. When the Burlington Northern Railroad brings its proposal to reopen the rail yard to the City, the City will conduct public hearings at which time the issue of a safety committee for the rail yard can be discussed. Motion by Councilmember Wagner, second by Councilmember Poe to close the public hearing. MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY. 7-0. See Item VII.B.5 of these minutes for further action on this item. Page 4 City of Auburn Council Meeting Minutes August 5, 1996 2. 1996-1997 Business Improvement Area Budget A1.10 The projected fiscal year budget for the 1996-1997 Business Improvement Area (BIA) is $59,700. The City of Auburn will conduct a public hearing to receive comments, suggestions, and to answer any questions with regard to the proposed BIA budget. Mayor Booth opened the public hearing on the 1996-1997 Business Improvement Area (BIA) Budget. Associate Planner B. Sanders presented the staff report. She began her report by presenting a brief history of the BIA. The BIA was formed by downtown business owners in the mid to late 1980's, and in 1988, the downtown merchants petitioned the City to form the BIA. The ordinance which established the BIA requires that the eleven member Committee of Ratepayers meet several times a year and formulate a budget for City Council approval. The ordinance also requires that the Committee submit a list of accomplishments and an annual report. Associate Planner Sanders presented the Business Improvement Area Budget for the 1996-1997 fiscal year. She explained that the revenues for the BIA have remained stable, and the rates have not increased since the formation of the BIA. Assessment revenues are projected to be $46,300. Other revenues include $2,000 in investment income, $900 in interest income, and $6,000 in vendor fees. A fund balance of $4,500 will be carried forward. Total budget revenues for the 1996-1997 fiscal year will be $59,700. Budget expenditures include $20,100 for administration, $4,650 for administrative costs, $21,775 in program promotions, $2,100 in program marketing, and $9,575 in business retention and recruitment programs. The ending fund balance is budgeted at $1,500. Associate Planner Sanders presented the 1996-1997 combined budgets of the BIA and the Auburn Downtown Association. She explained that the Auburn Downtown Association is a nonprofit organization formed to perform some of the activities for the BIA. The BIA refers to the Page 5 City of Auburn Council Meeting Minutes August 5, 1996 geographic area. The combined budget includes the BIA budget previously described with the addition of in-kind volunteer services of $2,640. In-kind contributions to the Auburn Downtown Association include $2,460 from the Washington Downtown Revitalization Program, $13,500 from Keimig & Associates, and $39,420 in volunteer work. Cash resources for the Auburn Downtown Association include $3,250 in promotional resources and $32,720 from the Supermall developer, The Hapsmith Company. The total resources for the Auburn Downtown Association is $91,350. Total combined resources of the Business Improvement Area and the Auburn Downtown Association is $153,690. Don Gardr~er, Auburn Downtown Association President, 3601 Lemon Tree Lane, Auburn, WA Mr. Gardner reviewed some of the Auburn Downtown Association's accomplishments for the past year. The Auburn Downtown Association is ready to implement a design program intended to encourage the property owners and business owners in the downtown area to make facade improvements or other improvements to beautify their buildings. The design program offers matching funds for building improvements. The design program was established with the help of a community volunteer group who surveyed all downtown buildings listing the strengths and weaknesses of the buildings. During the past year, the Auburn Downtown Association also held an open house for downtown business and property owners as well as real estate agents. The open house afforded the building owners an important opportunity to learn more about the Auburn Downtown Association. Mr. Gardner noted that for the past two years, several of the Auburn Downtown Association volunteers and Business Improvement Area staff have been invited to the Governor's Training Institute in Ellensburg to present programs. The State considers Auburn as a model for downtown business improvement areas. Motion by Councilmember Borden, second by Councilmember Wagner to close the public hearing. MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY. 7-0. Page 6 City of Auburn Council Meeting Minutes August 5, 1996 Motion by Councilmember Borden, second by Councilmember Wagner to adopt Resolution No. 2715 and approve the contract with the Auburn Downtown Association to administer Auburn's Business Improvement Area. MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY. 7-0. See Item VII.B.3 of these minutes for furlher action related to the 1996-1997 Business Improvement Area Budget. 3. Water Service Rates O4.11, F4.3 The City of Auburn will conduct a public hearing to receive public comments with regard to changes in water service general regulations, establishing rates based on actual cost of service. Mayor Booth opened the public hearing on water service rates. Public Works Director Frank Currie presented the staff repod. Mr. Curde noted that later on this evening's agenda the City Council will be asked to consider two ordinances related to water service rates. The ordinances were developed based on a review of the Comprehensive Water Plan, the system needs, the capital facilities plan, and a financial plan. The water rate structure was revised to encourage conservation and more equitably distribute the cost among users. The new rate structure will allow the customer to determine the cost of their services by the amount of their consumption. The rate structure includes classifications for single family (one or two unit dwellings), multi family (minimum of three units), commercial, manufacturing/industrial, schools, city accounts, irrigation, and wholesale. The structure includes a base rate and a charge based on consumption. Mr. Currie displayed a water rate comparison chad taken from a study prepared by the American Public Works Association. The chad is based on a consumption of 1,000 cubic feet per month. The chad indicates that Auburn's new rate and previous rate are among the lowest rates compared to neighboring jurisdictions. Page 7 City of Auburn Council Meeting Minutes August 5, 1996 In response to questions from Councilmember Cerino, Public Works Director Currie noted that approximately 40 percent of the City's water users use less than the previous minimum consumption level of 700 cubic feet. If adopted, Ordinance Nos. 4878 and 4879 will establish new rate levels, new rate structure, new customer classifications, a zero-based volume, continue the discount rates for the low-income elderly and handicapped, and provide for wholesale water rates. Michael David Stanley. Sr., 2614 "N" Street SE, Auburn, WA Mr. Stanley asked whether the ordinances provide a rate classification for non-profit organizations. Public Works Director Currie responded that the proposed ordinances do not include any provisions for churches or other non-profit organizations. Virginia Haugen, 2503 "R" Street SE, Auburn, WA Ms. Haugen asked which rate classification a church is considered. Public Works Director Currie responded that a church is considered a commercial account. Ms. Haugen expressed concern that the wholesale rate for water is less than the single family rate. Public Works Director Currie explained that the cost of providing water to other purveyors is less because the City does not maintain their pipe system. Ms. Haugen questioned the last water rate increase and its relation to Metro sewer charges. Public Works Director Currie explained that the City raised water rates a few years ago, and the increase was essentially a cost of living increase. Commercial sewer rates are based on water consumption. Ms. Haugen expressed concern with the administration of Metro and the rates charged the City of Auburn for sewer service. Mayor Booth reminded Ms. Haugen that the issue before the City Council this evening is water rates and not sewer rates. Mike Morrisette, Executive Director of the Auburn Area Chamber of Commerce, 228 - 1st Street NE, Auburn, WA Mr. Morrisette reported that Chamber representatives reviewed the proposed rates and discussed them with some of the major manufacturers in the area. They have no Page 8 City of Auburn Council Meeting Minutes August 5. 1996 objections to the proposed ordinances and find the rates to be fair. Motion by Councilmember Wagner, second by Councilmember Singer to close the public hearing. MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY. 7-0. See Items VII.A.1 and VII.A.2 of these minutes for further action related to water service rates. B. Audience Participation 1. Michael David Stanley, Sr., 2614 "N" Street SE, Auburn, WA Mr. Stanley asked for clarification of the City's action with regard to Burlington Northern/Santa Fe Railroad's withdrawal of their request for permits. Mayor Booth advised the issue cannot be discussed at this time, since it is a matter scheduled for discussion in executive session this evening. Mayor Booth indicated that Mr. Stanley will be advised when the information becomes a matter of public record. 2. Phillip Jenkins, 110 "W" Place NW, Auburn, WA Mr. Jenkins expressed concern for emergency services to the west hill of Auburn after the reopening of Stampede Pass. Mr. Jenkins described a recent 911 call he placed during which the officer responding to his call was delayed by two trains. Planning and Community Development Director Krauss reported that according to information from the railroads, traffic on the Burlington Northern and Union Pacific rail lines has doubled in the last three to four years. The railroads are projecting that traffic will double again in the next five to six years. Mayor Booth added that the City has a fire station located on the west side of the Burlington Northern tracks, but east of the Union Pacific tracks; however, the City does not have the same issues with the Union Pacific Railroad as it does with the Burlington Northern Railroad. Mayor Booth indicated the City would prefer to see an Alameda-type separated grade crossing north-south and east-west which would enable the port districts to compete with other ports. Mayor Booth stated Page 9 City of Auburn Council Meeting Minutes August 5, 1996 there are no plans for other satellite stations or precincts. The City already has a fire station at the General Services Administration building west of the tracks and a police precinct west of the tracks, and can rely upon mutual aid agreements if necessary. 3. Virginia Haugen, 2503 "R" Street SE, Auburn, WA Ms. Haugen asked if personnel at the Supermall precinct can be increased. Mayor Booth indicated it may be a consideration if funding is available. Police Chief Purdy added that police responses are different from fire and emergency services responses which are dispatched from a fire station. Police officers are already in the field and spread throughout the city. In response to a question from Ms. Haugen, Mayor Booth agreed to discuss the Alameda grade separation project with her in more detail at a later date. Mayor Booth also commented that the City expects the port districts, Washington State, and the federal government to provide funding for a major grade separation project. C. Correspondence No correspondence was filed for City Council review. III. COUNCIL COMMITTEE REPORTS A.

Associates for a surface mining permit to allow excavation of 4,500 cubic yards of material and to import 5,900 cubic yards of material on property located on the southwest corner of 20th and "R" Street NW. Councilmember Borden requested information related to the variances of the application and more detailed information on the excavation. Planning and Community Development Director Krauss explained that the variances are for the minimum acreage of the mining site and the 50-foot minimum setback from adjoining property lines. The setback variance is located on the western side of the property and adjacent to the city water shed. The excavation is required to provide for two building pads. Mr. Norval Latimer of API Associates, the developer for the project, responded to questions from the City Council.

MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY. 7-0. VII. ORDINANCES AND RESOLUTIONS A. Ordinances 1. Ordinance No. 4878 A3.5.5.13, O4.11, F4.3 An Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Auburn, Washington, repealing Auburn City Code Chapter 13.04 entitled "Water Service - General Regulations" and adopting a new Auburn City Code Chapter 13.06 entitled "Water Utility - General Regulations". Motion by Councilmember Wagner, second by Councilmember Poe to introduce and adopt Ordinance No. 4878. Councilmember Poe noted that in Chapter 13.04, which will ' be repealed by Ordinance No. 4878, there is a provision for a Water and Sewer General Supervisor and describes the duties of the position. The Water and Sewer General Supervisor is not included in the new Chapter 13.06. Councilmember Poe asked if Chapter 13.06 designates the position responsible for the water utility. Public Works Director Currie stated the City has not had a Water and Sewer General Supervisor position for several years. Water Quality Program Coordinator Chris Thorn pointed out that Section 13.06.010, Item N, defines "water division supervisor". Public Works Director Currie advised that in the chain of command, the water division supervisor reports to the Maintenance and Operations Manager who in turn reports to the Public Works Director. The position of Public Page 15 City of Auburn Council Meeting Minutes August 5, 1996 Works Director is included in another section of the Auburn City Code under Title 2, Administration and Personnel. Councilmember Singer asked for clarification on the amount of system depreciation covered by the new rates. Public Works Director responded that approximately $400,000 in depreciation costs will not be covered. The utility has been underfunded by approximately 70 percent in the past. The new rates will fund the utility up to approximately 70 percent. The rates that are proposed this evening are anticipated to be in effect to 1998. In response to a question from Councilmember Brothers, Utilities Engineer Dwight Holobaugh advised that of the two rate options described in the rate study, the option recommended by the rate study is the one recommended for adoption. The option includes a higher underfunding amount for the utility, but it was determined that the utility could accommodate the underfunding until the utility is reevaluated again in 1998. Councilmember Poe pointed out that although the 1995 utility showed significant underfunding of utility depreciation, the actual revenues received came close to funding depreciation in 1995. Mayor Booth added that the recommended rates are an effort to keep the rates at a reasonable level for single and multi family residences, instead of raising the rates to a level to provide the funding for all recommended improvements.
