violence legislation and incorporated many elements

CITIZEN INPUT, PUBLIC HEARINGS & CORRESPONDENCE
A. Public Hearin.qs
City of Auburn 2000-2004 Consolidated Plan
03.4.1.7, F5.4.3
City Council invites public comments on the City of Auburn
Consolidated Plan for the 2000 - 2004 planning years and
the 2000 Action Plan, which proposes projects for the 2000
program year and proposes allocation of entitlement funds
for use by those projects.
Associate Planner Shirley Aird presented the staff report for
the 2000-2004 Consolidated Plan. Ms. Aird referred the
Council to the revised 2000-2004 Consolidated Plan
contained in the agenda packet, particularly Chapter 6, the
2000 Action Plan. The Action Plan includes the
Page 3
City of Auburn Council Meeting Minutes November 1,199.q
development and implementation strategies for allocating
and expending Community Development Block Grant funds
next year. The Action Plan also contains some
contingencies for expenditures. One area affected relates to
the senior center funding in the amount of $200,000. If the
senior center does not receive the remainder of its project
funding next year, the contingency allows the expenditure of
the funds for other important parks and recreation facilities.
The 2000 Action Plan assumes a $375,000 allocation from
the Department of Housing and Urban Development. The
Plan also includes approximately $262,000 in reallocations
from prior years. The reallocation consists of some
administrative funds, which were not spent, as well as
programs which did not use all of their funding.
Councilmember Poe questioned the wording of Strategy 2
on page 2 of Chapter 6 of the Plan. He recommended
striking the words "do not choose" from the Priority
statement under Item 2, Housing Affordability.
Councilmember Poe expressed concern with Strategy 2-3
which proposes $75,000 in funding for the Low Income
Housing Institute for acquisition and rehabilitation of Auburn
Manor Apartments. Ms. Aird explained the strategy is an
effort to preserve Section 8 subsidized housing.
Councilmember Singer asked for a summary of the Human
Services Committee's consideration of the allocation to the
Low Income Housing Institute (LIHI) and Auburn Manor. Ms.
^ird explained when LIHI takes over the Auburn Manor
property, they plan a comprehensive renovation and
rehabilitation as well as improvements to the general areas.
Councilmember Poe requested clarification of the $262,385
in reallocations from prior years. Ms. Aird explained that the
reallocation consists of $175,000 in pre-1991 funding, the
remainder is unused administrative costs due to changes in
staff, and smaller amounts from program accounts that did
not use all of their allocation.

Audience Participation
Virginia Haugen, 2503 R Street SE, Auburn, WA
Ms. Haugen expressed concern that $10,000 was spent on artwork
at the new Skateboard Park rather than used for improvements at
ballfields throughout the city. In response to a question from Ms.
Haugen regarding the City's wells, Public Works Director Engler
responded that the City's water customers are served by a total of
nine (9) wells. Not all wells are operating at one time. Coal Creek
Springs and West Hill Springs are two additional sources of water
Page 5
City of Auburn Council MeetinR Minutes November 1, ~C~
for the city. Wells 6 and 7 are the newest wells, and Wells 5A and
5B were added within the last five years. Mayor Booth advised Ms.
Haugen that the Lake Tapps Parkway is under construction and is
funded by the developer and Pierce County. Public Works Director
Engler advised there is no direct connection between the Sound
Transit Facility and the City's program for work within the city on
city streets. Mayor Booth added that projects previously approved
by the Department of Transportation have been tabled pending the
outcome of Initiative 695. Projects tabled include the 3rd Street
Project and the 277th Street Project. Parks and Recreation
Director Deal responded to Ms. Haugen's question regarding the
number of employees at the museum. There are 1.7 full time
equivalent employees employed at the museum. There are over
50 regular volunteers. Mr. Deal also addressed questions
regarding concession stands and Game Farm Park. Ms. Haugen
asked the number of employees working in the City Hall building.
Personnel Director Heineman estimated approximately 100
employees work at the City Hall building and approximately 26
uniformed police personnel work per shift. Ms. Haugen thanked
Councilmembers Wagner and Borden, City Attorney Reynolds,
Building Project Coordinator Joiner, and Traffic Tech Dave Burdick
who helped resolve a safety hazard in her neighborhood.
Jeffrey Oliphant, 3700 Beecher Road, Bellingham
Mr. Oliphant is a developer working on a project called Auburn
Marketplace located in the North Auburn Business Area, just north
of Fred Meyer, bounded on the south by 10th Street, on the north
by 14th Street, on the east by "D" Street NE, and the Burlington
Northern Railroad tracks on the west. "A" Street NE will bisect the
development. The project will include a mix of retail, service
commercial and office uses. A traffic signal is planned at the
intersection of 10th and "D" Streets. A detention pond has been
constructed with substantial landscaping and a walkway will be
added. Mr. Oliphant displayed a partial site plan of the project. He
also displayed a drawing of the Eagle (Lowe) Hardware store that
is planned for the project area. Mr. Oliphant noted that under the
North Auburn Business Area Plan, the side of the store facing a
public street requires fifty percent glass. Mr. Oliphant proposed an
alternative to the 50 percent glazing requirement which will be
addressed later this evening under the proposed 1999
Comprehensive Plan amendments.

the airport flight path.

§-0. Councilmembers Poe and Lewis
Application No. REZ0006-99
03.8 REZ0006-99
City Council to consider the request of Rick and Karen Witters to
rezone property located at 1404 and 1414 "A" Street SE from R-3,
Duplex Residential, to C-3, Heavy Commercial.
Councilmember Borden moved and Councilmember Singer
seconded to approve the rezone based upon the Hearing
Examiner's Findings of Fact, Conclusions and Decision, and to
instruct the City Attorney to prepare the necessary ordinance.
Councilmember Poe expressed concern with Hearing Examiner
Finding of Fact Number 3 which refers to provision for any future
development and to mitigate its potential impacts to the residential
uses to the east, and Condition 1 which includes in part, "The
Planning Director shall be authorized to increase landscaping
requirements and setbacks..." Councilmember Poe stated that the
Zoning Code, setback requirements, and landscaping requirements
already address mitigating commercial zones next to residential
zones. He stated the Finding and Condition are inappropriate and
beyond the scope of the Planning Department and Hearing
Examiner.
Councilmember Borden explained that the Finding and Condition
provide assurances to the residential neighborhoods that impacts
will be mitigated.
Assistant Planning Director Rued explained that the Zoning Code
does not contain language with regard to how the building will be
located on the property, where the parking is located, or how
ingress and egress is addressed. Environmental checklists would
not be required for any project under the SEPA threshold.
Councilmember Cerino also expressed concern with the Findings
and Decision relative to the potential increase in setbacks and
landscaping requirements.
Councilmember Wagner noted that the property proposed for
rezone to C3 extends into the adjacent residential area more than
Page 10
City of Auburn Council Meetin~l Minutes November 1, l~ff
other C3 zones. He spoke in favor of providing extra care to the
residential areas. He also spoke in favor of modifying Condition 2
to provide that the alley shall not be used for any ingress or egress
without major improvements.
Councilmember Borden withdrew her motion to approve the
rezone.
Councilmember Borden moved and Councilmember Wagner
seconded to schedule a closed record hearing on Application No.
REZ0006-99 at the December 6, 1999 Council meeting.
The applicant, Mr. Rick Witters, indicated from the audience no
objection to the December 6, 1999 hearing date.
MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY. 7-0.
Application No. CPA0002-99
03.4.3
City Council to consider the proposed 1999 amendments to the
Comprehensive Plan.
Planning and Community Development Director Krauss presented
staff report of the annual amendments to the Comprehensive Plan.
The amendments were reviewed during a public hearing held
before the Planning and Commission, and were reviewed by the
Planning and Community Development Committee.
Policy Text Amendments 1 through 3 consist of Capital Facilities
Plans for Kent, Auburn, and Dieringer School Districts. The capital
facilities plans are the basis for school impact fees. Impact fees
approved by the City are approved by a separate action.
Mr. Krauss noted that the proponent withdrew Policy Text
Amendments 4 through 6.
Policy Text Amendment 7 for the Auburn North Business Area Plan
was referred to earlier by Mr. Jeff Oliphant under Audience
Participation. The proposed amendment would allow altemative
fagade treatments in the North Business Area when the City finds it
is not possible to meet the standard to require at least 50 percent
of the building fagade fronting on a street to be windows.
Page 11
City of Auburn Council Meetin;i Minutes November t, 199q
Policy Text Amendment 8 was requested by Mr. Oliphant for the
Auburn North Business Area and is resolved by Policy Text
Amendment 7 and with some determinations made on the site
plan. Therefore, an amendment is not recommended.
Policy Text Amendment 9 relates to the Auburn North Business
Area Plan, Policy AN2.13. Mr. Oliphant has requested that the sign
height limitations be increased for buildings over 25,000 square
feet or eliminated entirely. Staff is recommending an amendment
to allow one free standing sign at a 35-foot height.
Councilmember Wagner questioned whether neon accents on
buildings should be considered part of signage. Assistant Planning
Director Rued stated the neon accents are considered architectural
accents. Councilmember Wagner urged a review of the sign
ordinance.
Councilmember Poe commented on the appearance of the signs in
the shopping area north of the Fred Meyer Shopping Center. He
objected to the appearance and placement of the buildings and
signs.
Policy Text Amendment 10 is requested by Mr. Oliphant to allow
'A" Street NE to be extended as a public street. The portion of "A"
Street NE proposed for extension is north of 10th Street.
Councilmember Wagner objected to the elimination of the policy.
He proposed rewording the policy as follows: '"A" Street NE shall
not be continued north in the vicinity of 7th Street NE. "A" Street
NE shall be available for pedestrian access.'
Mr. Krauss presented Policy Text Amendment 11 relating to
Transportation Plan policies and levels of service and alternate
versions of Chapter 7 of the Transportation Plan element of the
Comprehensive Plan. Traffic engineers requested amendments to
the plan to lower intersection levels of service at key intersections.
The current intersection levels of service are not maintainable due
to background traffic. An alternative amendment proposes a
corridor level of service analysis and traffic impact fees. Since
traffic impact fees have not been adopted, and it is uncertain
whether they will be adopted, staff is now proposing that the
Council approve both versions of Chapter 7 with additional
Page 12
City of Auburn Council Meefin.q Minutes November 1, 199fl
language that states "until such time as traffic impact fees are
adopted, the first version would apply. If Council approves traffic
impact fees, the second version of the chapter is in effect
automatically."
Comprehensive Plan Map Amendment 1 affects the northeast
corner of Auburn Way and 30th Street NE. The area is zoned for
industrial uses. The property has been acquired by a car
dealership, Valley Pontiac, who owns an adjacent pamel to the
north. The recommendation is to change the designation to
commercial.
Comprehensive Plan Map Amendment 2 is a request to designate
the area north of 21st Street between C and F Streets from
residential land use to public, semi-public land use. The property
was acquired by the City's storm sewer utility for public purposes.
Comprehensive Plan Map Amendment 3 was withdrawn by the
proponent.
Comprehensive Plan Map Amendment 4 is proposed by a group of
residents in the vicinity of Mill Pond Apartments in Lakeland Hills.
The residents of the area want to limit new multi-family
development in the north end of Lakeland Hills. There are four
parcels in the area zoned unclassified. Staff originally
recommended maintaining the Comprehensive Plan designations
intact as historically high density uses have been planned for in the
area for well over a decade. The high density uses are located on
arterial streets and near public facilities. The Planning Commission
recommended that Unclassified Area #1, near Mill Pond, should
remain high density, and Unclassified Area #2 could be changed to
a Iow density residential designation. The Planning and
Community Development Committee supported changing Area #2
to Iow density residential; however, they also requested staff
change a small tract of R4 to a Iow-density designation. However,
since the Planning Commission did not include the proposal to
change the small tract of R4 in their public hearing, it cannot be
added to the proposed amendments at this time.
Councilmember Lewis explained that the Planning and Community
Development Committee members have discussed the possibility
of looking into descriptions that identify multi-family owner and
Page 13
City of Auburn Council Meetin;] Minutes November 1, 1999
multi-family rental. He urged that in the next year, the City
research the viability of the designations.
Councilmember Borden agreed with Councilmember Lewis and
suggested offering density credits when the units are owned.
Councilmember Poe questioned Figure 7-1, 1999 Arterial Corridor
Level of Service, where actual Levels of Service for three corridors
have been changed from LOS C to LOS B. Traffic Engineer Mullen
explained that the three corridors remain at a Level of Service D
standard, but Figure 7.1 reflects the actual levels of service for the
arterial corridor. The table reflects actual levels of service rather
than the level of service standard.
Councilmember Borden moved and Councilmember Wagner
seconded to approve the 1999 Comprehensive Plan amendments,
with the exception of Policy Text Amendment 11, and with the
amendment to Policy Text Amendment 10 as stated by
Councilmember Wagner earlier.
Councilmember Poe disclosed that, relative to Comprhensive Plan
Map Amendment 1, he has no interest in the proponent, Poe
Engineering, Inc.
In regard to Policy Text Amendments 7 and 9, Councilmember
Lewis disclosed that a different unit of his employer, Sterling
Savings, was involved in the financing of the real estate for a
portion of the Auburn Marketplace development; however, he has
no knowledge of the financing details.
Councilmember Cerino confirmed that adoption of the school
districts' Capital Facilities Plans does not confirm or adopt the
school impact fee amounts; adoption of the fees is accomplished
under a separate action.
MOTION CARRIED. 5-2. Councilmembers Singer and Lewis
voted no.
Councilmember Borden spoke regarding Policy Text Amendment
11. She indicated adoption of Option A would be a retreat from
addressing the financing of transportation improvements. She
Page 14
City of Auburn Council Meeting Minutes November 1, t99,q
proposed adoption of Option B which provides a corridor level of
service and the option of collecting transportation impact fees.
Councilmember Lewis explained that the options were offered
because the City Council has yet to adopt transportation impact
fees. Option A will be in effect until the Council adopts
transportation impact fees, at which time Option B would go into
effect.
Councilmember Wagner pointed out that Option A appears to lower
several intersections to Level F where no developer would be
required to pay any mitigation fees. Councilmember Lewis noted
that the Level of Service F does not reflect the standard, but
reflects the actual level of service.
Traffic Engineer Mullen stated that Option A allows for some
additional growth.
In response to a question from Councilmember Wagner, Traffic
Engineer Mullen stated that proposal is to adopt a Level of Service
F with a threshold of approximately 100 seconds at some
intersections. Mr. Mullen noted that no threshold is designated for
41st and "A" Street.
Councilmember Wagner spoke against adopting Option ^.
Councilmember Singer spoke in favor of adopting both options.
Councilmember Lewis spoke in favor of adopting both options.
Councilmember Borden stated Option A would be acceptable along
with Option B if the intersection Levels of Service remain at existing
levels rather than lowering them.
Councilmember Wagner requested the justification for changing so
many intersections to Level of Service F. Traffic Engineer Mullen
explained that there is no specific development driving any of the
changes in the levels of service. The reason for the degradation of
some of the levels of service is due to traffic either originating or
destined outside the city.

Councilmember Cerino noted that peak hour can be affected by
many conditions.
