II. CITIZEN INPUT, PUBLIC HEARINGS & CORRESPONDENCE
A. Public Hearings
1. Extension of Interim C-2 (Central Business District) Zoning
O3.4.2.1.2
In accordance with RCW 36.70A.390, the City Council will
conduct a public hearing and adopt Findings of Fact to
justify the further extension of interim zoning and certain
amendments to Auburn City Code Chapter 18.28 entitled "C-
2 Central Business District" for a period of six months. An
ongoing Downtown Plan process recommends the rezone of
a portion of downtown now zoned C-3, Heavy Commercial,
to C-2, Central Business. This change has been made on
an interim basis until the Downtown Plan is adopted.
Planning and Community Development Director Krauss
presented the staff report. Mr. Krauss stated the Downtown
Plan has been in preparation for several years. The draft
Downtown Plan is under review by the Planning Commission
at this time, and Plan adoption by Council is expected by
April. An additional six-month extension of the interim
zoning is needed until the Plan' is adopted.
Mayor Booth opened the public hearing. No one in the
audience requested to speak regarding the extension of the
interim zoning.
Councilmember Brothers questioned whether the extension
of interim zoning would impact any potential plans for
redevelopment in downtown. Planning Director Krauss
responded that the interim zoning may potentially impact two
projects, the redevelopment of the "Pastime" block and
Safeway's proposal to add fuel pumps to its facility.

MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY. 7-0.
2. Application No. ANX00-0003
03.1 ANX00-0003
City Council to consider an annexation petition submitted by
property owners to annex approximately 201 acres located
on Lea Hill and generally bounded by 116th Avenue SE on
the west, SE 312th Street on the north, 124th Avenue SE on
the east and the Green River Community College/SE 320th
Street on the south
Associate Planner Shirley Aird presented the staff report for
Application No. ANX00-0003. The Council will consider two
matters this evening related to the Miller Annexation:
annexation of the area and the application of zoning
standards to be in effect upon annexation. The annexation
was initiated in March 2000 by a ten percent petition, and
the Council subsequently authorized circulation of the formal
annexation petition. The sixty- percent petition was certified
by the King County Assessor's Office. The annexation area
consists of approximately 201 acres, 480 single-family
homes, 60 condominiums, and one commercial business.
The population is estimated at 1,250.
Ms. Aird presented an overview of the proposed zoning that
would be applied to the area upon annexation. The first
public hearing on the proposed zoning was held before the
Planning Commission on August 8, 2000. Ms. Aird
displayed a map of the area showing the conversion of King
County zoning designations to proposed City zoning
designations. She noted that the City's list of permitted uses
in a particular zone is stricter than that of King County, and
density Auburn is calculated differently than in King County.
Councilmember Brothers questioned the financial
implications of the annexation. Finance Director Supler
responded that a specific analysis of the annexation area
was not performed. The largest cost would be for fire
services, which will be contracted to Fire District 44. No
Page 3
City of Auburn Council Meetinn Minutes December t8, 2000
increase is police personnel is expected at this time. There
will be additional costs associated with street maintenance
and the utilities will be impacted from the removal of the
"outside city limits" surcharge.
In response to a question from Councilmember Brothers,
Ms. Aird advised that the only park area within the
annexation area is Lea Hill Park, which is currently owned by
King County. Parks and Recreation Director Deal added
that the City would assume control of the park property at
some time in the future.
In response to questions from Councilmembers Singer and
Lewis, Planning Director Krauss advised that the City is well
under the threshold of assessed valuation of Fire District 44
that would require assumption of the Fire District. The
District is aware of the proposed incremental annexations
within their district. In terms of fire district service area, a
greater part of the district lies outside the City's potential
annexation area. However, in terms of assessed valuation,
more than half of the district value is on Lea Hill.
Councilmember Brothers expressed concern with the
financial impact of the proposed annexation to the city and
concern with the pace of annexation. Planning Director
Krauss responded that a complete financial analysis was
done for the first annexation on Lea Hill, which indicated that
annexation would be a break-even venture.
Mr. Krauss recalled that it was the Council's intention to go
forward with the Cobble Creek and Miller annexations, and
not proceed with any further annexation of Lea Hill until a
complete financial analysis is performed.
Councilmember Singer expressed concern with the impacts
of Initiative 722 on the City, which were not known when the
annexation was initiated.
Mayor Booth opened the public hearing.

City of Auburn Council Meetinn Minutes December 18, 2000
Thomas Bastrom, 17137 2nd SW, Seattle, WA
Mr. Bastrom indicated he owns approximately 2-3/4 acres of
property with the northeast corner of the annexation area,
roughly from the proposed LHC1 boundary to 124th. He has
owned the property since 1955. He stated that
approximately three years ago King County rezoned his
property to his benefit. He initially understood that upon
annexation to the city his property would retain equivalent
zoning to that of the existing King County zoning. Now he
has learned that the City's proposed zoning would be more
restrictive. He questioned whether his property could be
grandfathered with the existing King County zoning.
Planning Director Krauss responded that if a project is
vested by King County, the property would retain King
County zoning upon annexation. Mr. Krauss noted that Mr.
Bastrom's property is proposed for a light commercial
designation, which would allow neighborhood serving
businesses and general retail. The proposed zoning
designation would not allow the construction of a mini
storage complex that Mr. Bastrom had planned for the
property.
Kim Parker, 12040 SE 316t" Street, Auburn
Ms. Parker spoke on behalf of property owner, Joseph
Mijich. She presented a letter of authorization signed by Mr.
Mijich to allow Ms. Parker to speak on his behalf. She
stated that Mr. Mijich felt misinformed about the impacts of
annexation when he signed the petition for annexation, and
desires to withdraw his name from the petition. Mr. Mijich's
property consists of two parcels and a total of 4.87 acres.
King County zoning would allow development of 46 single
family homes on the property. Under proposed City zoning
of LHR3, Mr. Mijich would lose sixty percent of the sale
value of the property. Ms. Parker also expressed concern
with the need for more police officers to serve the Lea Hill
Homes development within the proposed annexation area.
Darren Helbling, 11815 SE 319t~ Place, Auburn
Mr. Helbling identified himself as the acting president of the
Lea Hill Village Homeowners Association. Mr. Helbling
acknowledged that problems exist at Lea Hill Village, but the
Page 5
City of Auburn Council Meeting Minutes December 18, 2000
current Homeowners Association Board is working to correct
those problems. Mr. Helbling spoke in favor of annexation
and City police services.
Darrell Hall, Lea Hill Village, Auburn
Mr. Hall identified himself as treasurer of the Lea Hill Village
Homeowners Association and a resident of Lea Hill Village.
He spoke in support of the annexation. He advised that Lea
Hill Village consists of 186 homes and approximately eighty
percent of the residents are homeowners.
Larry Miller, 31453 117t" Place SE, Auburn
Mr. Miller spoke in support of the proposed annexation. He
noted there were several volunteers who worked on
gathering signatures for the annexation petition. He urged
the City Council to proceed with the annexation.
Mo Spiess, 11911 SE 312t~, Auburn, WA
Mr. Spiess identified himself as owner of approximately ten
acres of property within the annexation area. His property
extends from 31 2t~ to 31 6th. Mr. Spiess was unsure about
the proposed zoning designation for his property. He
questioned the advantages of annexation and questioned
whether the proposed zoning for his property would be R2 or
R3. Associate Planner Aird indicated she would confer with
Mr. Spiess and answer his questions regarding the
proposed zoning.
Councilmember Borden moved and Councilmember Singer
seconded to close the public hearing.
MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY. 7-0.
Councilmember Borden moved and Councilmember Singer
seconded to accept the annexation petition and refer it to the
Boundary Review Board.
In response to questions from Councilmember Wagner,
Associate Planner Aird stated that once the County
Assessor's Office has certified the sixty- percent petition, a
petitioner cannot withdraw their name and property from the
annexation petition.
Page 6
City of Auburn Council Meetin_cl Minutes December 18, 2000
Councilmember Wagner noted that the draft of the City's
Storm Drainage Plan includes minimal analysis of the Lea
Hill area. Councilmember Wagner indicated it may be
premature to annex the area because of the area's
infrastructure needs.
Councilmember Brothers concurred with Councilmember
Wagner's comments. He expressed concern with the
financial impacts of the annexation.
Councilmember Lewis inquired regarding the loss of revenue
if action on the annexation was delayed beyond March 1,
2001. Finance Director Supler answered that approximately
$350,000 in annualized revenue would be lost.
Councilmember Barber spoke in favor of proceeding with the
proposed annexation.
Councilmember Poe recalled previous discussions regarding
the Cobble Creek and Miller annexations and the City's
commitment to go forward with the annexations.
Councilmember Lewis admitted that he had reservations
about going forward with the annexation. He stated that the
Council needs to ensure the City can adequately serve the
proposed annexation area. He also recalled that the Council
had indicated a willingness to annex the Miller annexation
area. However, he urged the Council to obtain a complete
financial and service analysis before pursuing any additional
annexations on Lea Hill.
Councilmember Borden expressed her belief that the City
extended an invitation to the residents of Lea Hill to pursue
their desire to annex to the City. She spoke in favor of
proceeding with the Miller annexation.
Councilmember Brothers admitted that annexations can be
costly for the residents within the current city limits. He
suggested that the City not encourage this annexation or
any others until a complete financial analysis is performed.
Page 7
City of Auburn Council Meetin~3 Minutes December 18, 2000
Councilmember Wagner explained that his hesitancy to
support the proposed annexation is a result of new
information about the cost of infrastructure contained in the
draft Storm Drainage and Water Comprehensive Plans. He
indicated a willingness to approve the annexation because
of the City's past commitment to annex the area.
Councilmember Lewis spoke in favor of approving the Miller
annexation provided the City does not pursue additional
annexations until a full financial analysis is performed, the
impact on the infrastructure is studied, and police and fire
service can be provided to the annexed area.
MOTION CARRIED. 6-1. Councilmember Brothers voted
no.
3. Application No. ZOA00-0009

includes a change to the Zoning Map to apply Lea Hill (LH)
Districts to the area generally known as the "Miller
Annexation" area.
Associate Planner Shirley Aird reported there is no
additional staff report other than the information already
provided earlier under Item II.A.2.
