CouncilmE Saul asked if there was any indication from King County that there mic be more money available. Mr. Crutchfield stated that he spoke with a staff member at King Count Housing and Community Development and they have indicated the avail- ability of additional funds is slim. He recommended going back to the Senior Ad -Hoc Committee and the architect and revise the plans as mud as is possible to still serve the needs of the Seniors. Mr. Fred Shepherd, Senior Ad -Hoc Committee Member, stated that the plan had been thoroughly reviewed by them and recommendations made on the alternates. MOVED BY VAN DUSEN, SECONDED BY MRS. PESICKA, THAT THIS ITEM BE PLACE[ ON THE AGENDA FOR THE COMMITTEE OF THE WHOLE MEETING OF OCTOBER 24, 1977, AND THAT THE SENIOR CITIZENS BY INVITED. MOTION CARRIED. This being the time and date published, Mayor Bauch declared the Public Hearing open. Kjell Stoknes, OCD Director, reviewed the proposed requirement for "Recreation Space" in all R -2, R -3, R -4, and RMH zone districts. The Ordinance, recommended by the Planning Commission, provides for 200 square feet of open space per apartment unit with a minimum of 1,000 square feet. This would allow approximately 42 units per acre. Mr. Stoknes further explained that requiring 300 square feet would allow 35 units per acre and 400 square feet would allow 33 units per acre. Mr. Peter L. Buck, attorney representing S & M Investments, suggested amending the proposed ordinance to add the following to Section 3(1)(1 "except when the setbacks are in excess of 50 percent . of the minimum required setback in which event the entire setback area shall be used in computing the required recreation space." Mr. Buck continued to explain their proposal. There are many recreation activities that could take place in a setback that is in excess of 50 percent of the requirement. He encouraged Council to stay with the 200 square foot requirement instead of considering 300. Councilman Bohrer stated that this does not encourage an increase in recreation space but reduces the total open space. Mr. Buck agreed that this does reduce the total open space but still allows for meaningful recreation space. Mrs. Vicki Schildmeyer, 5821 South 152nd Place, commented that it is very important to incorporate good recreation space in any apartment unit where there is potential housing for parents with children. There being no further comments from the audience, Mayor Bauch closed the Public Hearing. 'iur.;iiLA. CITY COUNCIL REGULAR MEETING UL. LU:JCi 1 i , 1977 Page 6 OLD BUSINESS - CONT.'

HILL, SAUL, PESICKA, VAN DUSEN, BOHRER. Councilman Traynor arrived at the Meeting at 7:05 P.M. City Hall Council Chambers MOVED BY SAUL, SECONDED BY PESICKA, THAT THE MINUTES OF THE SEPTEMBER 26, 1977 COMMITTEE OF THE WHOLE MEETING BE APPROVED AS PUBLISHED. CARRIED. Council President Hill asked OCR Director Kjell Stoknes to explain the proposed ordinance. Mr. Stoknes said the Commission had looked at the ordinance and felt the intent was proper. Councilman Pesicka asked if you can build apartments or anything if it is zoned that way. If some- one owned commercial property and wanted to build apartments would this still stand? Mr. Stoknes said you could build to a certain density. This would apply if apartments were built in a commercial district. Council President Hill said the Council would go through the proposed ordinance section by section. He said there will be a Public Hearing on the ordinance on October 17, 1977. Mr. Stoknes said the biggest impact of this requirement is the 1,000 square foot minimum and it has a heavy impact on R -2. He said there are legal questions that should be answered by the City Attorney. He said he would seek these legal answers. Mr. Stoknes said when you apply the 1,000 square foot require- ment there would not be a lot of design flexibility. In the R -3 desig- nation you have more units and the 1,000 foot requirement becomes less problem. He continued that the Village Green Apartments have an acre of green space. That does not include the strip that is out in front. The Stardust has one swimming pool, enough for eight units. Only about half of the apartments under this ordinance would qualify. Councilman Saul asked for some comparisons where the recreation space has been provided. Fred Satterstrom, Planning, said the Village Green has 464 feet per unit; Hampton Heights has 120 feet per unit; the LaVista Apartments do not have much. It has depended on the attitude of the developer as to what open space will be given to the apartments. He. said they felt this requirement was the minimum amount every individual unit should have. Councilman Pesicka said the parking areas are not enough; if an apartment has two or three bedrooms it is likely they have more than one car. Mr. Satterstrom said parking limits open space more than anything. Council President Hill said the proposed ordinance would be considered at a Public Hearing on October 17, 1977 and the proposed ordinance would be on the agenda of the Regular Council Meeting on October 17, 197 Kjell Stoknes, OCD Director, explained the Schneider rezone request and indicated the location of the property on a wall map. He said the Planning Commission had recommended approval on this, subject to certain conditions. He said he felt it would be better to define "commercial services" in the ordinance. He said he would suggest the Council limit the use of this property until that time. He said he recommended Section 2.B. be rewritten to read as follows: "Development of the property under the C -1 classification shall be limited to a single offic building." He continued that the setbacks in the C -1 zone are not relevant to the office uses and therefore he recommended the following minimum setbacks to this property. He suggested a new Section 2.E. be . added to read as follows: "All buildings shall be setback 25 fegt from the right -of -way line of Southcenter Boulevard and 65th Avenue South and 10 feet from the right -of -way line of Bluff Street." Mr. Stoknes said the•reason this property is being treated differently is because the City does not have an office zone. Council President Hill asked why the City is maintaining Bluff Street, it cannot be opened onto Southcenter. Mr. Stoknes said the streets to the west are steep and dangerous. If the property is ever built on it is likely Bluff Street will be reopened.

Mayor Bauch stated that now the final plan i needed so the City can go out for bids, and there is no one to do this. Tom Emrich, Mithun Associates, stated that they will provide input if it is desired. Councilman Traynor asked if there is enough information now for Counci to hire an architect on an hourly basis. Tom Emrich stated that Council approved a general schematic plan for the landscaping. This represents the feelings of Council in very gene terms about what the landscaping should be. It is a good tool for a landscape architect to work with but it needs further refinements and modifications to be more in line with what you have indicated.

In the next report he had said a.large slide could occur in case of earthquake or heavy rainfall. Mr. Koloski said he had seen evidence of the old roadway. Mayor Bauch said he had not seen in the report the recommended length of the'retaining wall that would I put in. Mr. Koloski said he had indicated the construction of the wall should be two and one -half feet in height. Mr. Koloski said natural restabilization would take place if further unstable condit do not exist. He said the test holes would be bored by a rotary hand drill. Council President Hill asked if there had been an esti. mate of the cost. Mr. Koloski said he had not estimated the cost. Mr. Stoknes said he had discussed the amount of $5,000 with Mr. Koloski the first time they had talked. Engineering estimates are subject to the market prices -and change frequently. Council Preside Hill said the Council was trying to get an estimate so they will kni what they are going to have to spend. Mr. Stoknes said his recommendation is to authorize staff to pursue getting an easement from Mr. Popejoy for the anchors and bores, they would need authori tion to go out for bid, and also authorization for Staff to negotia an agreement with Mr. Popejoy to take out the trees. The Council c accept any or none of the bids that come in. He said his office would also get estimates for the removal of the trees. Councilman Bohrer said a motion was made at the Committee of the Whole Meeting held August 22, 1977 authorizing Mr. Stoknes to proceed with the design of a bulkhead and the construction of it if it can be done f less than $5,000. Mayor Bauch said the City could get an estimate if less than $5,000 it will not have to go out for bid. Mr. Popejo said he thought all of this was going right along, he had been wait for someone to show up. He said he felt the matter was urgent. He said he was willing to cooperate in any way to get things underway. He said the surveyor had come to him for maps and the trail is actu on his property. Mr. Sowinski, audience, said he felt Mr. Hard, Ci Attorney, should look at the legal aspects of this matter before th City proceeds. Mayor Bauch said we would get an opinion from Mr. Hard. Councilman Van Dusen said it had been mentioned the trees should go. He asked if the trees could be trimmed a little and rem Mr. Koloski said the crown of the tree could be reduced and that wo help. Council President Hill asked if Mr. Popejoy would let the Ci trim the trees. Mr. Popejoy said yes - he wanted a good job done. Joanne Davis, audience, asked if the estimate would include ground cover. Mayor Bauch said yes it would.

He said the owner of the prope has indicated that the intent of the City was to have located fire hydrants at the stubs provided in the water main on the east side.of Southcenter Parkway. Two such locations are closer than 300 feet fro the furtherest portion of their building. They suggest that an east side location would be in conformance with Ordinance No. 729. He sai to their knowledge, this would be the only location in the City requi to install hydrants on both sides of the street wherein the structure is within 300 feet of a hydrant. He said their location adjacent to the freeway precludes construction of structures west of them which would need fire protection. They have concern for fire protection bu it does not appear beneficial to expend upwards of $7,000 above the cost of domestic water for a hydrant just 70 feet closer to the build Councilman Traynor asked if there are hydrants on both sides of the street. Mr. Ewins said they are all on the east side. Councilman Van Dusen suggested the Council have discussion with the Fire Departa and the office engineer. .MOVED BY TRAYNOR, SECONDED BY VAN DUSEN, THAT THE MATTER BE ON THE AGENDA OF THE SEPTEMBER 19, 1977 REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING, THAT THE F] CHIEF BE IN ATTENDANCE, AND IT BE SCHEDULED IN THE EARLY PART OF THE MEETING SO MR.

TO: MEMBERS, CITY COUNCIL FROM: Planning Division SUBJECT: Proposed 'Recreation Space' Ordinance Please find attached a proposed ordinance both defining and establishing. minimum provisions for recreation space. This is the product of several Planning Commission meetings and a public hearing subsequent to the Council's late 1976 directive to define the term 'open space'. After considerable deliberation, the Planning Commission as well as Staff deemed the objective of the City Council directive was to define open space which is useable by residents of multiple - family developments in your effort to ensure a suitable living environment in Tukwila. Hence, the term 'recreation space' and its applicability to multiple- _ family developments. The Planning Commission and Planning Division consider the proposed ordinance to establish reasonable minimum provisions which will contri- bute to a suitable residential environment.
