Councilmember Hernandez reported Fire Chief Tom Keefe met with
the Finance and Safety Committee and presented charts and information
on staffing that will be needed if the annexations are successful.
Councilmember Bauch reported the transportation benefit district
was discussed in the committee meeting. Information will be
presented to the entire Council in the near future.
Police Chief Waldner reported a crime prevention meeting will be
held August 9 in the evening.
Mayor Van Dusen reported a public hearing notice has been mailed
to all citizens regarding the annexations. He stated the City would
like to delay until negotiations on the bridge have been completed.
The City may request a delay until February so negotiations with the
entities can take place. If Seattle and King County refuse to
negotiate and the bridge is included in the annexation the City will
turn down the annexation.
Councilmember Stoknes stated the Council wishes to have a meeting
with the Planning Commission so the members of both groups can become
better acquainted. The Council could then understand the
Planning Commission role in decision making.
Mayor Van Dusen stated the City Hall parking is not adequate for
City employees and citizens. The condominiums to the north have
offered some land that can be leased and parking spaces could be
put in there. The other alternative is to add additional parking
in the front of the building.
Councilmember Hernandez stated she thought the City should stay
with property owned by the City and put additional parking in front
of the building and enhance it with landscaping.
Mayor Van Dusen stated further reports would be made to the Council
as a plan develops.
CHAIRMAN BAUCH ADJOURNED THE COMMITTEE OF THE WHOLE MEETING.
