Hearing Closed - 8:06 p.
Mayor VanDusen declared the public hearing
open. Rick Beeler, Director of Community
Development, told Council that the applicant
proposes to replace the existing two inch water
line on 146th between 46th and 51st Avenue South.
The easterly portion of the project, with slopes in excess of 29 percent,
is affected by the moratorium. This project will not only replace the
existing undersized line but also extend the line to 51st. The extension
will provide water for fire protection in an area not currently serviced.
Public Works has requested erosion control of the storm drainage
during the project. Mr. Beeler added that this is an essential utility
and does not feel approval of the waiver should hinge upon the
applicant conforming to the adopted Critical Area Sensitive Areas Ordinance.
Roger Eberhart, consulting engineer, commented that there were no
trees of significant size in the nght -of -way. He added that when
construction is complete, water bars will be placed across all disturbed
soil to divert any erosion into the native grasses and brush at the site.
The area will be covered with jute matting to stop any sheet erosion
between the water bars.
MOVED BY RANTS, SECONDED BY DUFFLE, TO APPROVE
THE REQUEST FOR WAIVER ON THE BASIS OF SAFETY;
THE PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT WILL BE RESPONSIBLE
FOR THE SUPERVISION OF GRADING AND EROSION
CONTROL.*
Councilmember Robertson su ested adding the standard contract to
be signed as has been require . ' om other applicants. City Attorney
John Colgrove responded that the ordinance that provides for the
waiver does not require the agreement. The agreement is a condition
that Council imposes in each Instance.
*MOTION CARRIED. WAIVER IS GRANTED WITH
CONDITIONS.
The public hearing was opened by Mayor VanDusen. Rick Beeler
explained that the applicant is pursuing a complete SEPA review,
rezone, and all permits to construct a 170,000 square foot convention
center /exhibition facility west of Longacres Racetrack, between the
railroads rights -of -way, and north and south of So. 158th Street. Much
of the south part of the property lies within Wetland Area #12. The
soils sampling was done by the applicant's consultant. A discrepancy
appears between the Jones and Stokes wetlands study and the
applicant's consultant report regarding where the wetland exists and
what type of wetland it is. Mr. Beeler recommends that the applicant
sign the normal waiver agreement contract, whereby he agrees to
conform to the finally adopted SAO.
Don Miles, project engineer for the applicant, stated that this project
has been submitted to the Corp of Engineers for certification.
McLeod's wetland biologist determined that at the fringes of the
property, there is only a slight area draining into the wetlands to the
south. The majority of the property drains to the north. Mr. Miles
noted a hardship for the applicant in that work can only occur when
Longacres is not operating.
Councilmember Robertson commented that with the final SAO being
completed within the next two months, the applicant's request for all
processes appears to be unnecessary. They will need to go through the
SEPA process before they can do the rezone or all of the utility
permits.
MOVED BY ROBERTSON, SECONDED BY RANTS, TO
GRANT THE WAIVER FOR THE SEPA PROCESS ONLY,
SUBJECT TO THE APPLICANT SIGNING THE NORMAL
AGREEMENT TO CONFORM TO FINALLY ADOPTED SAO.*

SUBJECT: KING COUNTY WATER DISTRICT NO. 125
1990 WATERMAIN REPLACEMENT PROJECT -PHASE 2
EXCEPTION TO SENSITIVE AREA MORATORIUM
APPENDIX 1
King County Water District No. 125 provides municipal water services to the City of Tukwila
residents along South 146th Street between 46th Avenue South and 51st Avenue South. These residents
are currently served by an old 2" steel pipe providing water for domestic use only. This main is severely
deteriorated and in need of replacement. Since this main is undersized fire protection for the residents
along this street is limited.
In April 1990, the Commissioners of the District authorized the staff to prepare plans to replace
this old pipe with an eight (8) inch, ductile iron watermain. Since this main will be within the City's
Right of Way, application to the City for a Right of Way Use Permit for the construction and operation
of this main was made on June 20, 1990. The westerly 1500 feet of the project is within developed Right
of Way and the easterly 200 feet of the project is within undeveloped Right of Way.
To fast track this project, concurrently with the permit application bids were requested, opened
and a contract awarded for this work.
In the City Staff response to the request for permit we were made aware of the sensitive nature
of the easterly 160 feet of this project (slope exceeds 15%) and the City's moratorium on construction
(ordinance 1544). The Staff indicated that unless a waver to the ordinance was obtained the project could
not be built.
The District therefore requests this waver of the moratorium on sensitive area construction for
the following reasons:
o The project will directly benefit the Tukwila residents along S. 146th St. by providing
adequate fire protection and domestic water services.
o
All other residences within this area of Water District 125's service area will benefit due
to increased grid capacity of the water distribution system.

PETITIONER: King County Water District No. 125
PROPERTY LOCATION:
PROPOSAL DESCRIPTION:
EFFECT OF MORATORIUM:
STAFF REPORT
TO THE
CITY COUNCIL
APPENDIX 2
Tukwila City Right -of -Way on South 146th
Street between 46th Avenue South & 51st
Avenue South
Water District No. 125 proposes to
replace a 2" steel water pipe with an
ductile iron water main.
The moratorium Ordinance No. 1544 precludes filing of new
development - related applications in sensitive areas, including
those with slopes greater than 15 %.
The petitioner requested a Utility Permit from the Tukwila Public
Works Department for construction and operation of an 8"
watermain along South 145th Street between 46th Avenue South and
51st Avenue South. The easterly 160 feet of the project is in a
sensitive area with slopes averaging 29 %. The project,
therefore, requires a waiver from Ordinance #1544 to proceed.
The petitioner desires to replace worn -out 2" pipe in order to
upgrade water service to the affected area. The project has
already been bid, and delay would cause hardship in terms of time
and money. If W.D. #125 cannot install the pipe in the sloping
area in a timely manner, the District would leave out the whole
line between 46th and 51st Avenues South and proceed to another
project.
Omitting the entire line upgrade would leave the area with a
"dead end" line rather than the much desired "looped" system.A
representative of W.D. #125 indicated that this could result in
water quality problems. Additionally, the homes in this area
would face hardship by continuing to have substandard fire
service with undersized mains and without hydrants.
IMPACT OF THE SENSITIVE AREAS ORDINANCE:
Any waiver granted and any future development should be
conditioned on the applicant's meeting the conditions imposed by
the Public Works Department in its letter of July 23, 1990. Items
#5 and #6 are of special concern in the sensitive area.
Vegetation disturbed by construction shall be replaced in order
to mitigate erosion on the slope.
DECISION CRITERIA:
Ordinance No. 1550 states that the City Council shall use sthe .
following criteria to review waiver requests:
1. Intent of the moratorium;
2. Hest interests of the City weighed against the interests of
the individual;
3. Circumstances and hardship caused by the moratorium;
4. Damage that could result from strict adherence to the
moratorium.
