CITIZEN INPUT, PUBLIC HEARINGS & CORRESPONDENCE
Public Hearings
No public hearing was scheduled for this evening.
B. Audience Participation
Robert Beatty, 3435 Auburn Way South #61, Auburn, WA
Mr. Beatty identified himself as President of Winchester Heights
Condominium. He presented the Council with handouts regarding
traffic concerns on Auburn Way South, particularly ingress and
egress from Winchester Heights. He noted the considerable new
development on Auburn Way South in the vicinity of Winchester
Heights. He expressed concern with limited visibility when
departing Winchester Heights to enter Auburn Way South, the
speed of traffic on Auburn Way South, the lack of pedestrian
crosswalks, and the number of accidents that have occurred since
1997 in the 3200-3600 blocks of Auburn Way South.
He proposed several solutions to his concerns, which were outlined
in his handout. Additionally, he requested a reduced speed limit,
the addition of overhead lighting, and a traffic signal with crosswalk.
In response to a question from Councilmember Poe, Mr. Beatty
advised that the Winchester Heights driveway is actually used by
three separate property owners: Winchester Heights Condominium,
Joe Heutrnaker, and Gerald Cross. All three have legal access to
the driveway.
Traffic Engineer Steve Mullen responded to Mr. Beatty's proposed
solutions. Mr. Mullen advised that the intersection requested for
signalization does not meet the warrants for a traffic signal on a
Page 7
City of Auburn Council Meefin;I Minutes December 20, 1999
state highway. The half-street improvements required for the
proposed development on the Heutmaker property as well as the
project across the street requires street illumination. The accident
history Mr. Beatty provided is characterized as rear-end type
collisions and due to driver inattention. Mr. Mulien noted that the
City Council took action recently to reduce the speed limit on
Auburn Way South; however, the State Secretary of Transportation
must approve the change in speed limit, and it is unknown at this
time whether the state will approve the speed limit reduction. Mr.
Mullen indicated that a marked crosswalk is not advised since
pedestrian protection cannot be provided.
In response to a question from Councilmember Wagner, Mr. Mullen
advised that Hemlock Drive does not meet warrants for a traffic
signal. However, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has
discussed a possible reorientation of their driveway to Hemlock
· Drive rather than directly to Auburn Way South. If the FAA traffic is
directed to Hemlock, it is likely that the intersection will meet the
warrants for a traffic signal.
Mr. Mullen also spoke briefly regarding a recent meeting of the
State Highway Safety Corridor where the Auburn-Enumclaw
Highway/State Route 164 was the subject of discussion. There is
an ongoing study to evaluate a possible bypass for State Route
164 so that the bulk of the traffic coming off the Enumclaw plateau
need not pass through Auburn.
Councilmember Poe encouraged the City of Auburn to pursue a
possible State Route 164 bypass. Planning and Community
Director Krauss advised that the City together with the Muckleshoot
Tribe originally went before the Puget Sound Regional Council to
seek funding for the Highway 164 bypass study. At that time, King
County opposed the City's and Tribe's proposal since the likely
route would go through area designated for rural development.
Traffic Engineer Mullen offered to pass Mr. Beatty's name along to
the State Highway Safety Corridor for possible future public
participation.
Correspondence
No correspondence was received for City Council review.

and $504 park and recreation impact fees. (Parks and
