The Committee of the Whole Meeting was called back to order by
Council President Harris, with Council Members present as previously
listed.
Wendy Morgan, audience, reported the Historical Society has been
invited by King County to resubmit the City history. She requested
that the $3,000 in the budget for the Historical Society be carried
to the 1989 budget.
Bill Hoffman from the TRansportation Planning Department in King
County was present at the meeting.
Councilmember Bauch stated the matter was discussed in committee
and Section 3 was added so it would be clear that the City did not
wish to participate unless they receive equity in both
contributions to and benefits derived from the TBD.
Cris Crumbaugh, audience, stated the proposal is still in the
planning stage and the complete financing is unknown at this time.
Bill Hoffman stated the City has need here in the valley. This
resolution will set the effort into motion. Every effort will be
made to come up with a good list of projects. The committee wants
to find out what projects are needed to get going. This will send
a strong message as to what is needed.
Council President Harris stated one entity has to be the lead
agency. The City has put in the projects that need to be funded.
Steve Robinson, Assistant Police Chief, presented the proposed
ordinance.
Councilmember Hernandez referred to Section 5.52.050 (C) (3) where
it says if the application is more than 60 days late the additional
charge is 100% of the renewal fee. She felt it would be better
to just say the license would be revoked.
City Attorney Colgrove said the license would be revoked but if
they renewed it the license fee would be doubled.
COUNCILMEMBER DUFFIE ARRIVED AT THE MEETING AT 7:50 P.M.
A member of the Adult Entertainment Task Force said the proposed
ordinance has been based on the best parts of ordinances passed
in other cities.
Assistant Police Chief Robinson said the ordinance has been worded
so the City can enforce the regulations and require behavior
appropriate in a public place. $750 is a reasonable fee.
MOVED BY MORIWAKI, SECONDED BY STOKNES, THAT THE PROPOSED RESOLUTION
BE ON THE AGENDA OF THE NEXT REGULAR MEETING OF THE COUNCIL.
MOTION CARRIED.

Draft agenda for
Joint Planning
Commission /City
Council Meeting.
Report on Chamber of Councilmember Moriwaki stated the Tukwila City Council cannot see
Commerce any benefit to the City if the Tukwila SeaTac Chamber joins with
Burien and Highline. The interests are different, there is little
industrial in Burien and Highline, it is mainly retail, and Tukwila
would feel their interests were not being served. We have no kinship
with that area.

John Colgrove, City Attorney, stated in Section 5.52.100 (B) the
"hearing examiner" will be clearly designated.
Councilmember Robertson stated in Section 5.52.110 (G) the one -half
inch lettering should at least be 1" or higher.
MOVED BY MORIWAKI, SECONDED BY HERNANDEZ, THAT THE PROPOSED
ORDINANCE BE SENT TO THE FINANCE AND SAFETY COMMITTEE FOR REVIEW.
MOTION CARRIED.
Randy Coplen, Planning Commission, suggested each item of the
agenda have a time limit placed on the discussion. The Planning
Commission would like to discuss with the Councilmembers what they
would like to concentrate on in the next one or two years.
Councilmember Stoknes wished to change the date of the meeting until
after Labor Day. When a suitable date could not be arranged it was
determined to have the joint meeting on August 23 at 7:00 p.m. in
the Police Traning Room.
Mr. Coplen suggested Items 2 and 3 be switched on the proposed draft
agenda. Perhaps the agenda is too ambitious for one night. Item 1
"Roles of Commission and Council" and Item 2 "Visions of Tukwila"
and Item 3 "Annexations" would be an agenda for one night. The next
agenda could be "Development Issues" and "Comprehensive Land Use Plan
and Zoning Code."
Gene Jaeger, Chamber of Commerce, stated the City would get value for
the amount spent with the Chamber of Commerce. There are areas of
common interest such as transportation.
Riverton Annexation Jack Pace, Associate Planner, explained the schedule of annexation
hearings. There will be a meeting on August 15 and another one on
September 19. The voting will be on February 7, 1989. Tomorrow
night, August 9, there will be a meeting with the BRB at Foster
High School at 7:30 p.m.
Councilmember Hernandez stated the Chamber of Commerce billing was
discussed in committee. Their invoices are not adequate for the
state auditor. Their products and services must be defined.
Alan Doerschel, Finance Director, presented the 6 -month financial
report to the committee.
Councilmember Bauch reported the committee wishes to emphasize they
are looking at the standards for prioritization in the Green River
Valley Transportation Benefit District.
Councilmember Duffie reported material is still falling off trucks
in front of Mr. Woods' home on Interurban. He goes out to the street
and brings it off the street.
Council PResident Harris adjourned the Committee of the Whole Meeting.
