Pierce County Councilmmeber Jan Shabro and Pierce County Engineer Tom Ballard were in attendance this evening. Deputy County Execuive Fran McNair could not attend. County Councilmember Jan Shabro thanked the City Council for the opportunity to brief the Council on a Pierce County project called the Lake Tapps Parkway. She introduced County Engiener Tom Ballard, who gave the presentation. Mr. Ballard advised that the Lake Tapps Parkway project is a major project which will cost approximately $50 million over the life of the project. He distributed copies of a handout to serve as a guide during his presentation. The project includes the construction of a corridor which includes a major east-west arterial to connect the valley floor at the freeway interchange of SR 167 and 8th Street East to Page 2 City of Auburn Council Meetin~l Minutes January 20, 1998 the top of the north portion of the Lake Tapps area. The project has been envisioned for 20 or more years, and in 1994, the Pierce County Council began the process for the alignment of the parkway. Pierce County has formed a partnership with the Lakeland Company to share the cost of constructing the parkway. The Transportation Improvement Board has also contributed funding for the project. Mr. Ballard explained the portions of the parkway depicted in bold on his handout represent portions of the project already funded at a cost of approximately $30 million. Approximately $12 to $14 million will be contributed by the County, $6 million by the State Transportation Improvement Board, and approximately $10 million by the Lakeland Company. The first phase of the project includes construction of the parkway from East Valley Highway up to the Lakeland entrance at Lakeland Hills Way and to the border of their property. The second phase includes construction of a ramp connecting the East Valley Highway with the parkway and a portion of the east end of the project connecting the parkway down to Sumner-Tapps via a north-south extension of SumneroTapps Highway. The final funded portion of the project includes construction of a bridge overcrossing the East Valley Highway and the Burlington Northern railroad tracks and connecting to the valley floor at 8th Street East. The last part of the project includes finishing the parkway connection from the Sumner-Tapps location to 182"d Avenue. The main portion of the parkway will include three uphill lanes, a median area, and two downhill lanes. Pedestrian facilities will be located on both sides of the parkway. The parkway interchange at 8th Street East will include traffic signals. Through the City of Pacific, the parkway will include a five-lane road with curbs, gutters and sidewalks. When the project is first constructed, three lanes and curbs and gutters will be constructed for the parkway. Traffic at this time warrants only three lanes of traffic, two uphill and one downhill lane. Page 3 City of Auburn Council Meeting Minutes January 20, 1998 In response to a question from Councilmember Borden, Mr. Ballard advised that Pierce County is working with the City of Pacific on the City's application for a grant application to the Transportation Improvement Board for the section of the parkway through the city of Pacific. Pierce County is also looking to apply for a grant to widen a section of the roadway from the parkway to the river. The Burlington Northern and Union Pacific crossings are included as priority projects in the FAST corridor study and will be funded by the State when funding is available, Mr. Ballard advised that Section 1 of the project, which includes construction of three lanes of the parkway and right-of-way, will cost approximately $8 million. Councilmember Borden inquired whether annexation by the City of any portion of the area would obligate the City to contribute to the project. Mr. Ballard responded that currently the project is entirely under the jurisdiction of Pierce County with the exception of a portion of the project in the city of Pacific. Mr. Ballard acknowedged concerns exist regarding the project if the area is annexed. He indicated he has corresponded with Planning and Community Development Director Krauss to begin a dialogue prior to an annexation occurring. In response to a question from Councilmember Lewis, Mr. Ballard explained that at the present time, the City of Auburn has no financial obligation for the parkway. However, if annexation of the area should occur, Pierce County has concerns with the loss of jurisdictional control over the parkway. Mr. Ballard suggested a preannexation agreement to outline the expectations and jurisdictional control for construction of the parkway. Councilmember Poe asked whether the City would have any obligation to the project if a preannexation Page 4 City of Auburn Council MeetinQ Minutes January 20, t998 agreement exists but annexation has not occurred. Mr. Ballard advised that if annexation does not occur the provisions of the agreement would not be activated. The timetable for the project is 12 to 15 years. Construction is anticipated to begin in 1998 with the bulk of the project complete by 1999 or 2000. Mayor Booth asked whether partial annexation of the overall area would have a negative impact on the project. Mr. Ballard indicated it would not as long as the annexation did not involve a property owner that is part of the parkway alignment. City Attorney Reynolds suggested an inter- jurisdictional agreement, much like the one accomplished for the Foothills Trail, should be explored between Pierce County and the City of Auburn and which would become effective only at time of annexation. 2. Board and Commission Appointments City Council to confirm the following appointments: a) Arts Commission The appointment of Paul Fouhy to fill an unexpired term vacated by Karla Seman to expire December 31, 1998. b) Planning Commission The appointment of Jon C. Evans for a six-year term to expire December 31,2003. c) White River Valley Historical Society The appoinment of Berlinda Jerry for a three-year term to expire December 31, 2000.

Page 5 City of Auburn Council Meetin~3 Minutes January 20, 1998 MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY. 7-0. D. Aqenda Modifications An agenda modification added Ordinance No. 5069, which was not available at the time of publication of the agenda, and transmitted under Item VII.A.5 of these minutes. II. CITIZEN INPUT, PUBLIC HEARINGS & CORRESPONDENCE A. Public Hearings The following are closed record hearings where comments are limited to the existing record and no new evidence or information is allowed to be submitted. 1. Application No. PLT0002~97 03.5 The request of Intracorp for preliminary plat approval for 38 single family lots on property located westerly of West Valley Highway and northwesterly of 11t~ Street NW. (See Item/I. C. 1 for correspondence related to Application Nos. PL TOOO2-97and MINO001-97.) Refer to Item II.A.2 of these minutes for action on Application No. PL TO002-97. 2. Application No. MIN0001-97 O3.10.3 The request of Intracorp for a surface mining permit to excavate 88,000 cubic yards of material for construction of Vistara Phase II located westerly of the West Valley Highway and northwesterly of 11th Street NW. (See Item II. C. 1 for correspondence related to Application Nos. PL TO002-97 and MINO001-97.) Since Application Nos. PLT0002-97 and MIN0001-97 relate to the same property and project, Mayor Booth opened the closed record hearing on both applications. Assistant Planning Director Rued presented the staff report. Mr. Rued first addressed issues raised by Councilmember Wagner at the last Council meeting regarding stability of slopes and the private street. In regard to the stability of slopes, City Page 6 City of Auburn Council Meetinn Minutes January 20, 1998 Attorney Reynolds suggests that as part of the final plat approval and recording, the City include a disclaimer on the plat which will advise potential property owners of the excavation and steep slopes. With regard to the proposed private street, Mr. Rued advised the proposed private street will serve lots 16 and 17, and noted the Hearing Examiner's Findings and Decision mistakenly refers to lots 77 and 78. The City Code allows a maximum grade of 12% for City streets; however, after consultation with the Fire Marshal and Planning and Community Development Director, the City Engineer can approve a 15% grade. A decision regarding the grade of the proposed street has not been made. If the applicant is required to build a public street, a 50-foot right-of-way and 90-foot diameter cul-de-sac would be required to serve two lots. The public street would require additional grading and excavation and consume more land space. The applicant proposes and staff is recommending a private street approximately 170 feet long, Colin Lund, Triad Associates, 11814 115th Avenue NE, Kirkland, WA, 98034 Mr. Lund identified himself as the representative for the applicant. Mr. Lund referred to the overlay drawings transmitted with the correspondence identified under Item II.C.1 of these minutes. The overlays demonstrate the proposal on the base map with an overlay of what could be done. The construction of a cul-de-sac requires additional excavation and creates higher retaining walls and more width to accommodate the retaining walls. Mr. Lurid spoke in favor of a private access tract to access lots 16 and 17 with a grade of no more than 15%. Councilmember Wagner noted that lot 15 panhandles on the proposed access. Mr. Lund explained the City allows panhandle lots, and lot 15 may or may not ultimately be served by the private access tract. Councilmember Wagner suggested that the developer should eliminate lot 15 and construct a public cul-de-sac with reasonable retaining walls. Mr. Lund referred back to the original approved plat for Sunning Hills which provided for a much longer street serving five to six lots. The proposal Page 7 City of Auburn Council Meetin~l Minutes January 20, 1998 presented this evening contains three less lots than originally approved in the Sunning Hills plat. Mr. Lund acknowledged that some of the lots in the original Sunning Hills plat were questionable as to their feasibility. Councilmember Borden asked whether a tree replacement formula, like the one recommended by City Forestem, will be used for Phase 2 of Vistara. Mr. Lund referred to Hearing Examiner Condition No. 3 for tree replacement and maintenance. Assistant Planning Director Rued explained that the arborist for City Foresters prepared the report for the purpose of analyzing the tree removal and replacement in Phase 1. Many of the trees left standing in Phase 1 suffered disease. Tree replacement for Phase 2 will be carried out according to Hearing Examiner Condition No. 3. Councilmember Wagner inquired whether the Fire Department can require a turnaround at the end of the private street. Fire Marshal Smith explained that his recommendation included the option to either provide a turnaround or to include sprinkler systems in the homes on lots 16 and 17. If a turnaround is constructed, the fire hydrant will be placed at the turnaround. If sprinkler systems are installed in the homes, the fire hydrant will be placed in accordance with city code for residential spacing. Hearing Examiner Condition No. 2 includes the recommendations of the Fire Marshal. In response to a question from Councilmember Cerino, Assistant Planning Director Rued noted that Hearing Examiner Condition No. 2 provides that the private street will be constructed in accordance with the requirements of the City Engineer. Motion by Councilmmeber Borden, second by Councilmember Singer to close the public hearing. MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY. 7-0. Motion by Councilmember Borden, second by Councilmember Singer to approve the preliminary plat based upon the Hearing Examiner's findings of fact, conclusions Page 8 City of Auburn Council Meetin.q Minutes Januarv 20, 1998 and conditions, and to instruct the City Attorney to prepare the necessary ordinance. Councilmember Wagner proposed an amendment to the motion to correct the findings of fact to read lots 16 and 17 on Condition No. 2, to require signing the private street as a private street, and to include a requirement for either a covenant or similar document that a buyer would be made aware of and limits the City's liability with respect to slope stability for all lots in Phase 2. Councilmember Borden and Councilmember Singer accepted the amendment to the motion. The purpose of the covenant is to serve as an advisement of slope stability and hold harmless against possible stability problems. Councilmember Poe questioned the effectiveness of the proposed covenant or advisement against future litigation if the slopes become unstable. Councilmember Wagner spoke in favor of the covenant as an effort to alert property owners and possibly prevent claims against the City. Councilmember Poe expressed concern that the covenant will place a hardship on the developer in selling the properties. Councilmember Wagner suggested the wording of the covenant should not create a hardship on the developer and should protect the City from potential lawsuits. Councilmember Poe suggested City staff advise the applicant of the covenant language. Colin Lund Mr. Lund requested that the applicant and the applicanrs engineers participate in drafting the language for the covenant. Glenn Mann, 5418 159th Place NE, Redmond, WA Mr. Mann identified himself as the president of a geotechnical consulting group involved with the Vistara project. He acknowledged that it is not uncommon to p)ace covenants on properties where steep slopes exist. However, the covenant will not prevent lawsuits from being Page 9 City of Auburn Council Meetin,q Minutes January 20, 1998 filed. He noted that the soil types in Vistara, Phase 2, are different from the soils in Seattle's Magnolia neighborhood. He added that property owner's post-construction maintenance of their property is most critical in preventing property damage. MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY. 7-0. Motion by Councilmember Borden, second by Councilmember Lewis to approve the surface mining permit based upon the Hearing Examiner's findings of fact, conclusions and conditions, and to instruct the City Attorney to prepare the necessary ordinance. MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY. 7-0. B. Audience Participation Aaron Richards, 729 Third Avenue NE, Pacific, WA Mr. Richards identified himself as the ASB President of Auburn Riverside High School. He proposed changing the name of Oravetz Road to a name identified with Riverside High School to promote school sprirt at the high school. Mr. Richards identified three homes that front on Oravetz Road as well as parks and schools. He also noted that the Oravetz name would continue to be memorialized through another existing street, Oravetz Place. He requested information on how to proceed with his request. In response to a question from Councilmember Wagner, Mr. Richards advised that he has not personally spoken to the homeowners on Oravetz Road but that the parents of a Riverside High Shcool student live in one of the homes on Oravetz Road. Councilmember Wagner suggested the Council investigate the request to learn if there is any objection from the property owners along Oravetz Road. Mayor Booth suggested that Mr. Richards direct a written request to the appropriate Council committee for review. Councilmembers Poe and Borden expressed their support for the name change.

MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY. 7-0. VII. ORDINANCES AND RESOLUTIONS A. O~inances 1. Ordinance No. 5029 O3.3.12 An Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Auburn, Washington, authorizing the City to enter into an Interlocal Agreement with the Port of Seattle relating to wetlands construction, community development, and property transfer. Motion by Councilmember Borden, second by Councilmember Singer to introduce and adopt Ordinance No. 5029 and authorize the Interlocal Agreement with the Port of Seattle. Page 14 City of Auburn Council Meetin,q Minutes January 20, 1998 Mr. Krauss explained that the Port purchased the property and obligated the property under their environmental impact statement for wetland mitigation for the SeaTac Airport third runway project. Of the 69 acres, the Port plans to create a 50-acre wetland. The Port is proposing compensation to the City in the form of cash and property for the cost normally borne by the property for services in the area. Twenty acres of the property will be dedicated to the City. The Port plans to excavate 50 acres to the level of the floodplain. The flood waters which now back up onto other privately-held properties will be transferred to the Port's property. This will allow the development of the privately-held properties which were previously undevelopable floodplain. The Port's financial contribution and land dedication will be used to cover the cost of utilitiy services in the area, floodplain conversion, and development of the City's 20 acre parcel. In response to a question from Councilmember Cerino, Mr. Krauss explained that the 20 acre parcel is not suggested for use as a regional storm drainage detention basin. The optimal site for a regional basin is further to the north. He suggested using the 20 acres to secure land within the city in a location more suitable for the regional basin. Councilmember Poe asked whether there are plans for a stormwater detention facility at the southwest corner of 277th and "1" Street. Special Projects Engineer Locke advised that an update of the City's regional storm drainage plan is planned as a result of the Agreement and an optimum location for the regional storm drainage facility can be determined. Councilmember Lewis questioned the Port's plans for the excavated materials. Mr. Locke explained that the excavated materials may be used to either fill another floodplain, provided the necessary permits are obtianed, stockpiled, or used as part of the third runway project. Councilmember Poe expressed regret that approximately 60 acres of developable property is being converted to a wetland and taken off the City's tax rolls. Councilmember Page 15 City of Auburn Council Meetin.Q Minutes January 20, 1998 Cerino noted that when the Port of Seattle purchased the property it was taken off the City's tax rolls. Mr. Locke advised that since the Port included the Auburn site for wetland mitigation in their environmental impact statement for the third runway project, they essentially have no other option. City staff members have been working with the Port over the past year on their plans to locate the wetland mitigation site in the city. In response to a question from Councilmember Wagner, Planning and Community Development Director Krauss advised the stockpile of the excavation materials will be addressed through the SEPA process and conditions of the project. Councilmember Poe questioned Section 4.4 which provides for refunding to the Port if funds are not expended, and specifically the amount retained by the City for administrative costs, Finance Director Supler explained that she had suggested the City request an admininstrative fee of two- tenths of one percent interest in case of a refund. MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY. 7-0. 2. Ordinance No. 5066 F4.6.3 An ordinance of the City Council of the City of Auburn, Washington, authorizing the Mayor and City Clerk to accept donation of a 1938 fire engine to be used by the City of Auburn for restoration as a museum/parade vehicle or other public purpose.
