Re: Bridges Overview
Bridges – General Description
The Bridges is a community located on Lea Hill that is within the municipal limits of the City of
Kent but entirely surrounding by the City of Auburn. It is identified in the below map.
Vicinity Map
Page 37 of 47
Overview of parcel layout 2017 Aerial Image
The City of Kent annexed this area in 1987, prior to the City of Auburn’s annexation of Lea Hill
in 2008. Prior to Auburn’s annexation The Bridges was simply a portion of Kent that was not
contiguous to its city boundaries. Auburn’s annexation of Lea Hill is the action that created this
island of Kent surrounded by Auburn.
Bridges – Overview
The Bridges community is defined as a Planned Unit Development (PUD) that includes 386
single family residential lots, 55.87 acres of open space and active recreation space, and a
13.21 acre yet to be developed area that allows for an assisted living facility, retail, commercial
and office uses. Of the 386 single family residential lots, there only remain 2 to 3 dozen
undeveloped properties. The community includes 9 access tracts, 4 sensitive area tracts, 3
detention pond tracts, 21 landscape tracts, 8 recreation tracts, and 2 open space tracts.
49.67 acre open space tract 6.20 acre open space tract
Page 38 of 47
The Bridges community receives sewer service from the City of Auburn and water service from
the City of Kent. The community also receives direct police service from the City of Kent and
fire service from Puget Sound Regional Fire Authority (although mutual aid agreements exist
that might result in a response by the Auburn Police Department or Valley Regional Fire
Authority).
Annexation Discussion
When viewing a map of the City it is commonly asked why there is an island within Auburn, why
this island is part of the City of Kent, and why the island isn’t simply annexed into Auburn in
order to eliminate this anomaly.
In early 2019 the City of Kent and City of Auburn began discussing the merits of annexing the
Bridges community into the City of Auburn. This discussion expanded to also include
representatives of Oakpointe, the owner of the yet to be developed 13.21 acre southeast corner
of the community that is currently designated for a future mix of non-residential activity.
There are a number of moving parts associated with this kind of conversation, several of which
will be brought forward to City Council for future presentation, discussion and potential action.
These include:
• Future development concepts related to the yet to be developed property owned by
Oakpointe and whether the uses allowed under the Kent PUD are appropriate for
Auburn.
• Determining the development standards that would apply within the PUD given that it
was approved in Kent and Auburn’s rules are different. Understanding this matter will
help define vesting rules, the process to change the standards and/or the PUD in the
future, and how to memorialize these details within City code.
• Understanding the management needs and requirements for the open space tract. The
open space tract was dedicated to the City of Kent which means that an annexation
would transfer the property to the City of Auburn. While open space is generally
intended to remain undisturbed there are times when dangerous trees need to be
removed, invasive weeds eradicated, garbage from illegal dumping to be picked up, etc.
• Evaluation of the condition of infrastructure within the PUD. This evaluation includes a
look at the physical condition of public roads, sidewalks, bridges, signage, street lights,
storm ponds, public landscaping and open space, etc. It also includes a review of
inspection records related to storm water facilities, bridge infrastructure, and roadway
infrastructure etc.
• Engagement with the residents who currently live within this community. What is the
impact to their property taxes, utility bills, police/fire service, voting districts, etc.?
• Defining the annexation process. State and County laws adequately define a process
where unincorporated land is annexed into a city. The laws and procedures do not
contemplate the process for moving an already annexed area from one city to another.
• Defining how to transfer assets including paper and digital records, land and
infrastructure, inspection and permit records, etc.
• Post annexation actions that are necessary. For example, all street signs within the
Bridges include a City of Kent graphic. The City of Auburn would want street signs
swapped out in order to remove this graphic.
As discussions progress and there is a greater understanding of the impacts, pros and cons,
process, and potential future conditions of the yet to be developed property, staff will continue to
engage the Auburn City Council in order to ensure that Council is in the best position possible to
make informed annexation decisions.

Ordinance No. 6762
Budget Impact:
Current Budget: $0
Proposed Revision: $0

Administrativ e Recommendation:
For discussion only.
Background Summary:
Ordinance 6762 rewrites the penalties for violations of the City of Auburn’s fireworks code.
The ordinance largely removes criminal penalties for violations of the code and replaces them
with infraction penalties.
Currently, the fireworks code regulates the display of fireworks, the timing of the sale and
discharge of fireworks, and the type of fireworks that may be manufactured, possessed, used
or detonated within the city.
The ordinance changes the penalty for selling or discharging fireworks outside the appointed
times from a misdemeanor to an infraction. The same change in penalties is made for
manufacturing, possessing, using, or detonating prohibited fireworks in the city. In both
cases, the first violation is subject to a maximum fine of $250 upon conviction. The second
violation within a year is subject to a $500 fine. And every violation thereafter within a year is
subject to a misdemeanor penalty – a maximum of 90 days in jail and a maximum $1,000 fine.
For fireworks sales, the ordinance clarifies that a conviction for violating the fireworks code
may result in a revoked permit, the city closing the fireworks stand down, and denial of a sales
permit for the following year.
For fireworks displays, the ordinance adds the same consequences for violations of the
fireworks code. A display operator that violates the code and/or display permit my lose the
permit, be prohibited from operating the display, and the city may deny a display permit for
the next year.
The crime of reckless discharging fireworks is created. The crime is violated if a person uses
or discharges fireworks in a reckless manner that creates a substantial risk of death or serious
physical injury to another person, or damage to the property of another. Upon conviction, the
violator is subject to a gross misdemeanor penalty, which is a maximum of 364 days in jail
and/or a $5,000 fine. A court may also order the person to pay restitution for any property
damage caused by the fireworks.

AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
AUBURN, WASHINGTON, RELATING TO THE
REGULATION OF FIREWORKS, AND AMENDING
SECTIONS 8.24.030 AND 8.24.050 AND REPEALING
SECTION 2.22.190 OF THE AUBURN CITY CODE
WHEREAS, local jurisdictions may enact regulations relating to the sale, use and
discharge of fireworks that are more restrictive than state law so long as the local
regulations do not directly conflict with state law; and
WHEREAS, the purchase, use, and discharge of illegal fireworks jeopardizes the
welfare and safety of the citizens of Auburn; and
WHEREAS, penalizing the illegal purchase, use, display, and discharge of
fireworks exclusively through a criminal misdemeanor penalty is an inflexible and
inefficient means of enforcement of the city’s fireworks code, and requires a high standard
of proof; and
WHEREAS, the adoption of progressive civil infraction penalties to punish the
illegal use and discharge of fireworks, in addition to criminal punishment for the more
serious reckless discharge or use of fireworks, provides the police and courts additional,
more adaptable options for punishment, which the court may impose upon a lower
showing of proof.
NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF AUBURN,
WASHINGTON, DO ORDAIN as follows:
Section 1. Amendment to City Code. Sections 8.24.030 and 8.24.050 of the
Auburn City Code are amended to read as shown in Exhibit A.
