Mr. Ferko explained that the base zone is R1 which allows a
maximum of one unit per 8,000 square feet. The project has
73.49 acres of net buildable area, which translates into 400
maximum units allowed. The PUD zoning allows additional
density of one unit per 7,260 square feet and the same net
buildable area translates into 441 maximum units allowed.
The project is proposing 373 units. The Comprehensive
Plan calls for a density of 4 to 6 units per acre for single-
family development. The proposed density for the project is
4.17 single-family units per acre.
The PUD ordinance requires 17.86 acres of open space.
The project is proposing total open space area of 29.13
acres. The City Park Plan requires 5.83 acres of park area.

on family needs.
M Chuck Gould. 5201 Bridoet Avenue SE. Auburn

impacts the addition of 373 homes will have on traffic on

irrigated. The transition areas will not be irrigated, but will
include native and draught tolerant plantings.
Robert Armstrono. Barohausen Consultino Enoineers Inc.
18215 72nd Avenue South. Kent
Mr. Armstrong introduced himself as the professional
engineer for the Kersey III project. Mr. Armstrong referred to
testimony expressing concerns at the October 3, 2005
closed record hearing. Mr. Armstrong indicated that many of
the concerns are addressed in the Environmental Impact
Statement (EIS), which has been finalized.
In response to questions from Mayor Lewis, City Attorney
Heid stated that the EIS IS not the issue before the Council.
However, those portions of the Hearing Examiner record that
refer to sections of the EIS can be commented on. Attorney
Heid cautioned Mr. Armstrong not to display anything that
was not presented before the Hearing Examiner.
Mr. Armstrong displayed slides that demonstrated
transportation improvements that would be implemented
according to the Hearing Examiner's conditions for the
preliminary plat and PUD approval. Mr. Armstrong reviewed

Mr. Peters read a letter on behalf of Bill Hedrick who resides
at 5015 Heather Avenue SE, Auburn. Mr. Hedrick
expressed concerns related to proper notice of the hearing
process and the determination that the rezoning hearing
Page 6
Citv of Auburn Council MeetinQ Minutes
October 17. 2005
process is quasi-judicial. Mr. Hedrick was in opposition of
the project.
Pat Davis. 4901 Foster Avenue SE. Auburn
Ms. Davis stated that she disagrees with the Hearing
Examiner's recommendation related to the rezone of Kersey
III. Ms. Davis indicated that she submitted ten pages of
comments to the City Clerk. Ms. Davis stated that the
Hearing Examiner's letter was inconsistent and confusing
without having reference materials and background
information. Ms. Davis also expressed concerns related to
costs for infrastructure needs outside the Kersey III project.
Ms. Davis spoke in opposition to the rezone.
Dale Huston. 4822 BridQet Avenue SE. Auburn
Mr. Huston indicated that he is a professional engineer with
The Boeing Company. Mr. Huston stated that the Hearing
Examiner's report has many inconsistencies, including the
number of proposed housing units. Mr. Huston also
expressed concerns regarding the omission of traffic
impacts at the intersection of Kersey Way and Oravetz
Road, which he believes is dangerous and needs mitigation.
Mr. Huston also expressed concerns regarding the negative
impact the project would have on Bowman Creek. Mr.
Huston requested Council deny the rezone or refer it back to
the Hearing Examiner.
Janet Koch. 2815 53rd Street SE. Auburn
Ms. Koch stated that she and her family have been Auburn
residents for sixteen years. She believes that growth should
not destroy or have an adverse impact on the community.
Ms. Koch expressed concerns regarding impacts that the
project would have on schools relating to student bus
transportation, new teachers, quality education, and school
facilities and maintenance. Ms. Koch believes the rezone
would significantly impact the Auburn School District on all
levels as schools are already over capacity. Ms. Koch
requested Council deny the rezone.
Chris Koch. 2815 53rd Street SE. Auburn
Mr. Koch stated that he disagrees with some of the Hearing
Examiners conclusions, specifically related to traffic impacts
to streets adjacent to the Kersey III project. Mr. Koch

Page 7
Citv of Auburn Council MeetinQ Minutes
October 17. 2005
Kersey Way SE from Oravetz Road to 53rd Street SE, which

Mr. Koch also spoke in opposition to the proposed density of
the Kersey III project. Mr. Koch requested Council deny the
rezone.
Erin Galeno. 4515 4ih Street SE. Auburn
Ms. Galeno stated that she believes the project is
inconsistent with the City's Comprehensive Plan and that it
is not compatible to the area being compared to in the
Hearing Examiner's report with regard to lot size. Ms.
Galeno also expressed concerns that almost all of the
proposed park area will be under the BPA power lines. Ms.
Galena spoke in opposition to the current proposal and
urged Council to reconsider the applicant's request to
rezone as submitted.
Joe Gould. 5202 Jasmine Avenue SE. Auburn
Mr. Gould expressed concerns regarding public health,
safety and general welfare with regards to traffic impacts
and hazards at the intersection of 53rd Street SE and Kersey
Way. Mr. Gould also expressed concerns regarding the
impacts to schools.
In response to questions from Mayor Lewis, Director Krauss
stated that the number of housing units allowed under R1
zoning would be similar to the number proposed by the
Kersey III project. Director Dowdy reported that a contract
for the installation of a traffic signal at the intersection of
Oravetz Road and Kersey Way exists, but we are awaiting
delivery of materials to construct that signal.
Tim Carter. 5624 Randall Avenue SE. Auburn
Mr. Carter read a letter submitted by Jason Miller who also
resides at 5624 Randall Avenue SE, Auburn. Mr. Miller
believes that the proposed project is not consistent with the
City's Comprehensive Plan and expressed concerns
regarding the pedestrian un-friendly environment of the
proposed development.
Mr. Carter stated that the process for presenting evidence
seems to have been designed to limit constituents from
giving input to the Council. The constituents have placed
Page 8
Citv of Auburn Council MeetinQ Minutes
October 17.2005
their faith in the Council and trust the Council to find a way
to protect the integrity of the existing community.
Frank Rice. 1181 F Street SE. Auburn
Mr. Rice spoke In favor of the proposed project with regards
to the amount of access to the proposed open space, which
is more than has ever been provided in that area before.
Mr. Rice spoke in opposition to the proposed project with
regards to narrow lots and single car garages as it will
encourage street parking.
Wavne Moore. 5001 Jasmine Avenue SE, Auburn
Mr. Moore expressed concerns regarding average lot size of
the project, as he believes a PUD designation would not
provide a living standard that is better than the existing R 1
zone. Mr. Moore also spoke in opposition to allowing
reduction in front yard setbacks and an increase in allowable
lot coverage to 50%. Mr. Moore encouraged Council to
deny the rezone.
Mark Hancock, SeQale Properties, PO Box 88028. Tukwila
Mr. Hancock referred to correspondence transmitted in the
agenda modification. Mr. Hancock explained that, before
the Hearing Examiner on August 9, 2005, Segale Properties
requested a notice be placed in the final plats, building
permits, and deeds for Kersey III regarding the proximity of
the project to the gravel pit operation across Kersey Way.
On behalf of Segale Properties, Mr. Hancock requested
Council modify the wording of the notice as recommended in
his letter and submitted in the agenda modification, to better
reflect that mining operations are currently active and
ongoing.
Jonie CavanauQh Brooke, 5501 Bridaet Avenue SE, Auburn

change the character of current neighborhood. Ms. Brooke

At 8:40 p.m., Councilmember Singer moved and
Councilmember Backus seconded to close the closed record
hearing and recess to closed session (pursuant to RCW
42.30.140).
MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY. 6-0.
The closed session concluded and Mayor Lewis reconvened
the meeting at 9:32 p.m.
City Attorney explained that the City Council recessed to
closed session to deliberate, which is permitted under RCW
43.20.140, which exempts quasi-judicial matters from the
Open Public Meetings Act. State law and City ordinances
define the matters before you, in connection with Kersey III,
as quasi-judicial. Depending on Council action, there could
be some time constraints because the regulatory format
imposes time limitations on cities in terms of how quickly
matters must be acted upon. If the City Council were to
approve the preliminary plat and rezone tonight they would
be within the time limitations. However, if the City Council
takes action that calls for a longer period of time before
ultimate approval, whether that is for further deliberations,
additional information, to impose some type of conditions, or
remand the matter back to the Hearing Examiner, such
action would require an extension with the permission of the
applicant.
On behalf of the City of Auburn, Mayor Lewis asked the
applicants if they were willing to allow an extension of time
for either further Council deliberation or to remand the
matter back to the Hearing Examiner.
In response to questions from Mr. Johns, Director Krauss
indicated that, due to the noticing process and other
requirements, if the matter were remanded back to the
Hearing Examiner, the City would need at least an additional
sixty days before the matter could be considered by City
Council.
At 9:36 p.m., Mayor Lewis recessed the meeting for five
minutes to allow Mr. Johns time to deliberate with the
applicants.
Page 10
Citv of Auburn Council MeetinQ Minutes
October 17. 2005
Mayor Lewis reconvened at the meeting at 9:40 p.m.
Mr. Johns stated that a timing extension of any significance
creates a real problem for one of the applicants as they have
contracts of sale which are due in a few weeks. They must
make business decisions based on that fact and are
unwilling to grant an extension that would result in a two-
month delay.
Councilmember Norman moved and Councilmember Cerino
seconded to deny the PUD, plat, and related actions, based
on the following reasons:
1) Parks - We do not agree with inclusions of power
lines as a separate green belt. In parks space, to
qualify for a PUD, a power line is a separate green
belt;
2) Council does not agree with the Traffic Mitigation
Plan;
3) A development, so close to Lakeland, does not
include the Lakeland impact fees for transportation
and fire for similar impacts;
4) The decision to grant a PUD calls for an improvement
over standard design which does not necessarily
include one car garages, smaller lots, or buildings
corner to corner. A PUD should bring more to the
community to offset the relaxation from other
standards;
5) Council agrees with the Hearing Examiner's denial of
the variance;
6) Require the Segale notice language to be included;
7) The Hearing Examiner should review the compatibility
of lot size of the PUD with the Lakeland development;
8) Since a PUD is to improve conditions over a standard
development, Council believes the storm water
system should be reviewed to verify the level of
improvement to the community.
Councilmember Singer inquired if the language of the
motion should be amended, as it was originally based on the
possibility of remanding this issue back to the Hearing
Examiner.
Page 11
Citv of Auburn Council Meetina Minutes
October 17.2005
City Attorney Heid asked Councilmember Norman if it was
her intention to identify those issues that caused her to
make the motion to deny it even if it is not sent back to the
Hearing Examiner.
Councilmember Norman indicated that was her intention.
Attorney Heid stated that the issues that were identified
could still be the basis of the action by the Council, even if it
did not result in sending it back to the Hearing Examiner.
MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY. 6-0.
Councilmember Wagner returned to the Council dais at this
time.
B. Audience Participation
This is the place on the agenda where the public is invited to speak
to the City Council on any issue.
Wavne Moore. 5001 Jasmine Avenue SE. Auburn
Mr. Moore thanked Mayor Lewis and Councilmembers on behalf of
the Evergreen Foursquare Church for allowing the church the use
of what they refer to as the community center on A Street. Their
first week has been a great success.
The following individuals thanked the Council for their decision
regarding the Kersey III project:
Bruce Koch, 2815 53rd Street SE, Auburn
