See Ordinance No. 5511 under Item VII.A.3 of these
minutes for further action on the vacation.
2. Interim C-2 (Central Business District) Zoning
O3.4.2.1.2
City Council will conduct a public hearing on certain interim
amendments to Auburn City Code Chapter 18.28 entitled "C-
2 Central Business District". The interim amendments relate
to building height development standards and development
standards for parking garages. The amendments apply to
all properties designated as C-2 throughout the city. The
interim zoning will remain in effect until June 13, 2001 or
until new land use regulations governing development in
Downtown take effect, whichever is sooner
Associate Planner B Sanders presented the staff report for
the interim zoning. On February 5, 2001, the Council
adopted Ordinance No. 5510, which adopted revisions to the
interim zoning in the C-2 zone. A public hearing is required
following changes in interim zoning to allow an opportunity
for public input.
The revisions relate to changes in building height and
parking stall dimensions within parking garages. The
existing interim code for parking garages allows a height of
60 feet with an additional five feet for elevator housing and
mechanical equipment. The revised code would allow
parking garages 60 feet in height with an additional 15 feet
above the maximum building height to accommodate stair
towers and mechanical equipment. Under the revised code,
other buildings in the C-2 zone would be allowed a building
height based on the width of the abutting street right-of-way
with additional height possible for stepping back upper
levels. Other buildings in the C-2 zone would be allowed the
additional 15 feet above the maximum building height to
accommodate rooftop features.
Page 3
City of Auburn Council Meetinn Minutes February 20, 2001
The revised code would decrease the width of parking stalls
in parking garages from nine feet to eight and one-half feet.
The revised width is six inches wider than compact stalls.
Ms. Sanders explained that the changes are interim and will
be proposed as permanent changes with the adoption of the
Downtown Plan later this spring.
Councilmember Wagner expressed concern with the lack of
parking spaces for oversized vehicles. He suggested
designating, in the final language for the zoning changes, a
percentage of the parking stalls for oversized vehicles.
In response to questions from Councilmember Brothers
regarding need for fire apparatus to serve the increased
building heights, Fire Chief Johnson responded that the City
currently has a 75-foot elevating platform. In addition,
building and fire codes require sprinkler systems in new
construction.
Councilmember Poe commented that based on his review of
other parking garages, the proposed stall widths and driving
lane widths appear to be adequate for oversized vehicles.
Mayor Booth opened the public hearing.
Alan Keimig, 216 A Street NW, Auburn, WA, 98001
Mr. Keimig spoke in favor of the revised interim zoning
changes. He believes the zoning code changes are
important to the redevelopment of the downtown.
Councilmember Borden moved and Councilmember Lewis
seconded to close the public hearing.
MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY. 6-0.

Bob Holt, 10417 SE 302nu, Auburn, WA, 98092

from this evening's agenda. Mr. Holt was referred to Associate
Planner Shirley Aird for explanation.
Ken Harper, 19 East Main Street, Auburn, WA, 98002
Mr. Harper identified himself as the owner of the Rail Tavern
located at 19 East Main Street in Auburn. Mr. Harper requested
the City Council review Auburn City Code Sections 18.04.805,
18.04.895, and ordinance provisions for brewpubs. Mr. Harper
contends that City ordinances do not comply with state law and
limits his ability to conduct business. He also requested the

10. Ordinance No. 5518
An Ordinance of the City Council of the City. of Auburn, King
County, Washington, establishing a moratorium on the filing

area bounded by SR-18 to the south, 15th St. NW to the
nodh, Union Pacific Railroad to the east, SR-167 to the west
as defined within this ordinance to be effective for a period
of six months and setting a date for a public hearing.
City Attorney Reynolds presented Ordinance No. 5518. Mr.
Reynolds explained that due to increased water inundation
depth and frequency to the area bounded by SR 18, 15th
Street NW, the Union Pacific Railroad and SR 167, and the
failed negotiations with Puget Sound Energy for a drainage
corridor for future storm drainage improvements, a six month
moratorium on filing for building and grading permits for the
area is requested.
City Engineer Dowdy and Storm Drainage Engineer Carlaw
presented the Council with handouts consisting of a map
and photographs of the subbasin. Mr. Dowdy explained that
at this time it is unclear as to the cause of the drainage
problem. Mr. Carlaw explained that the area affected
includes approximately 700 acres, including developed and
undeveloped areas. He reviewed the four City maintained
storm water drainage systems existing in the subject area
(described in Finding of Fact No. 5 of Ordinance No. 5518).
Mr. Carlaw explained that the intent is for the storm water to
Page 13
City of Auburn Council Meetinn Minutes February 20, 2001
flow northwesterly through the affected area, but during
rains, the water has been observed flowing easterly.
City Engineer Dowdy presented an additional handout with a
summation of the facts known to date and staff conclusions
regarding the drainage problem. Mr. Dowdy pointed out that
even though this winter's rainfall is a 15-year record low,
there are more areas flooded for longer durations apparently
from Mill Creek backwater effects than in previous years.
He surmised that the drainage problem is with Mill Creek
rather than the City's internal drainage system. Mr. Dowdy
advised that additional study is needed in order to identify
feasible options.
Councilmember Wagner requested that staff include storm
drainage rate structure information on the next Public Works
Committee agenda for review and discussion.
