Mayor VanDusen opened the public hearing on the Six Year
Transportation Program at 7:06 p.m. John McFarland explained that
as required by law, the six year TIP must be passed annually. Once
passed, we are eligible for external funding. The proposed list of
projects has been presented to the Transportation Committee; they
have provided their review and prioritization.
There being no further comments on the issue, the hearing was closed
at 7:10 p.m. This item will be discussed further by the Transportation
Committee and forwarded to a regular meeting for final adoption.
The hearing of the Linardic Design Group was opened at 7:10 p.m.
Rick Beeler Director of the Department of Community
Developme2t, gave a brief overview of the waiver request. The North
Hills office complex building at 5900 Southcenter Boulevard is now
under design review, environmental and building permit reviews. The
applicant submitted his applications for construction of the building,
environmental review and board of architectural review prior to the
moratorium going into effect. He is vested and is able to pursue
construction of his building without needing a waiver. The waiver
request under consideration affects the use of the property. The
applicant is not vested in the use of the property and would like a
waiver in order to submit an application for a rezone and a
comprehensive plan amendment to up -zone the property to C -1 in
order to put commercial uses in his building.

Ord. #1573 Amending the
TMC Relating to
Panoram Device Establish-
ments
Ord. #1574 Annexing
the Cascade View Area
The granting of a waiver would allow the applicant to proceed with his
application for a rezone. If the waiver is not granted, the applicant will
pursue the office tenants that are vested under the existing zoning.
Mayor VanDusen clarified that this request is not for a waiver of the
rezone itself, but a request to apply for the rezone.
MOVED BY RANTS, SECONDED BY LAWRENCE, TO GRANT
THE WAIVER TO ALLOW THE APPLICANT TO PROCEED
WITH THE PROCESSING OF THE REZONE AND
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AMENDMENT.*
Councilmember Moriwaki asked if the applicant's intent was to have a
larger building than originally planned. Mr. Ed Linardic, project
engineer, responded that the building being constructed is the same
size. He clarified that the building he is constructing can be used as
CM purposes or PO purposes.
*MOTION CARRIED WITH DUFFIE VOTING NO. WAIVER IS
GRANTED.
MOVED BY DUFFIE, SECONDED BY HERNANDEZ, THAT
THE PROPOSED ORDINANCE BE READ BY TITLE ONLY.
MOTION CARRIED.
Attorney Hard read an Ordinance of the City of Tukwila, Washington,
amending Tukwila Municipal Code Sections 5.52.110 and 5.52.130
relating to panoram device establishments, containing a severability
clause, and providing for an effective date.
MOVED BY RANTS, SECONDED BY DUFFIE THAT
ORDINANCE NO. 1573 BE ADOPTED AS READ.*
Councilmember Ekberg inquired how the police department would
enforce this ordinance. Chief Ron Waldner and Sergeant Keith
Haines presented testimony regarding a variety of enforcement issues
dealing with the existing ordinance. Chief Waldner replied that the
new ordinance would be enforced the same way the police are
currently enforcing the existing statute. The current ordinance calls
for partial doorways. The department has had recent success in court
in bringing business into compliance because we've developed some
recent litigation. The suggestion for no doorways in the panoram
booths falls within some enforced legislation in other communities.
Failure to comply will take us back into court and /or criminal penalties
as the ordinance allows.
*MOTION CARRIED.
MOVED BY MORIWAKI, SECONDED BY DUFFLE, THAT THE
PROPOSED ORDINANCE BE READ BY TITLE ONLY.
MOTION
Attorney Hard read an Ordinance of the City of Tukwila, Washington,
annexing certain real property commonly known as the Cascade View
annexation area, adopting zoning and land use regulations for the
annexed area, providing that said annexed area shall not be required
to assume any share of the City's existing indebtedness, and
establishing an effective date.
