Mayor Van Dusen noted a letter dated May 28, 1986, to Moira
Bradshaw, Planning Department. "This letter will confirm our
telephone conversation withdrawing our request for a con-
ditional use permit to put Purolator Courier on that property
located south of 4600 South 134th in Tukwila." The letter is
signed by W. Lee Singleton, AKA, The Singleton Associates.
MOVED BY HARRIS, SECONDED BY PHELPS, THAT COUNCIL ACCEPT THE
ANNEXATION PETITION FOR PROPERTY ADJACENT TO 53RD AVE. SOUTH
AND SOUTH 139TH, AUTHORIZE CIRCULATION OF THE 75% PETITION
SUBJECT TO THE ASSUMPTION OF THE PROPORTIONATE SHARE OF THE
BONDED INDEBTEDNESS. MOTION CARRIED.
It was noted that there are five single family residences in
the annexation area.
MOVED BY STOKNES, SECONDED BY MORGAN, THAT COUNCIL APPROVE
THE DESIGN FOR THE NORTH HILL WATER TRANSMISSION PIPELINE
PROJECT AND AUTHORIZE THE CALL FOR BIDS. MOTION CARRIED.
Ross Earnst, City Engineer, explained that the project is to
look at the feasibility of constructing an extension of
Tukwila Parkway to Highway 181. They will look at the feasi-
bility and cost of a bridge, possible connections and at the
right -of -way required to construct the facility. They will
compare the cost against the benefit. If this is ever to be
done then the City needs to reserve the right -of -way.
Councilman Simpson said this could create a "bottleneck"
along the West Valley Highway at that point.
Council Member Harris said she disapproves of this project.
It is going to create traffic problems. The City has the
design for the extension of Southcenter Boulevard to connect
to Grady Way. We need funding for this rather than a new
bridge.
Councilman Bauch said the City has three major projects that
are a high priority: (1) Completion of the Grady Way Bridge
and the revision of Southcenter; (2) The rebuilding of the
T -Line Bridge to four lanes; and (3) The extension of
Strander to the east. The extension of Tukwila Parkway was
put in during a time when money was more available. There
are now commitments to these other projects.
MOVED BY BAUCH, SECONDED BY HARRIS, THAT THE TUKWILA PARKWAY
PROJECT BE INDEFINITELY POSTPONED. MOTION CARRIED WITH
PHELPS AND SIMPSON VOTING NO.
