Council agreed that the design of this project should be added to the 1988 accomplishments. Councilman Bauch asked about the possibility of the 57th Ave. So., 180th to the City Limits becoming a five lane street. At this time we can't justify any more than what it is now except straighten it out. It was decided to move the $100,000 for 57th Ave. so. to the deferred list. Council discussed the Minkler Blvd. project and agreed that the right -of -way ($400,000) and the Construction ($1,655,000) be moved to the deferred list. Interurban Avenue was discussed. Council agreed to move Interurban Avenue right -of -way from the 1988 Deferred List to the 1988 projects to be accomplished list under right -of -way. The issue is, will Council make the new Plan Checker Position full time permanent or full time temporary. At the last meeting the vote was 3 to 3 with Council Member Harris to cast her vote this evening. It was explained that if the position is full time temporary, the person will be let go if the number of building permits being issued decreases. This will be written into a contract. Council Member Harris cast her vote for full time temporary. It was stated that this person, with benefits, will cost about $30,000. Don Williams, Parks Director, discussed the proposed new maintenance building for the Golf Course with Council. The proposal is to bring the Park Maintenance Crew and the Golf Course Crew together into this building. Councilman Bauch said the proposed building is too big for this area. This is no place to be trying to solve a space problem at the City Shop. He suggested, and Council agreed TUKWILA CITY COUNCIL COMMITTEE OF THE WHOLE December 17, 1987 Page 2 Maint.
