THE BID OF SKAAR CONSTRUCTION, INC., IN THE AMOUNT OF
$2,517,000 FOR THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE NORTH HILL RESERVOIR
AND PUMP STATION, PHASE II.*
Alan Doerschel, Finance Director, explained that the City
borrowed $3.6 million in December, 1986. We have three years
to spend that money without penalty or restriction. If this
project is abandoned, the oldest of the bonds will have to be
redeemed. This would reflect poorly on the City. .
Council Member Moriwaki explained why the new reservoir is
necessary. We are presently being billed a demand metering
charge by Seattle Water Department. This is approximately
$40,000 per year and will continue to increase. This water
would be the reserve water if a major fire were to occur; it
would be used if the service from Seattle was interrupted,
and the pumps installed with this system would help increase
the water pressure on the hill. The cost is increased
because of the rock on the site. The explosion of the rock
was deemed unsatisfactory. Council member Moriwaki reviewed
a memo submitted by Council Member Robertson discussing the
cost of the project. He states that the City needs pumps,
not the reservoir.

Council Member Bauch said the talk of a reservoir has been
going on for a long time. The rate - payers need to buy a
reservoir.
Council Member Duffie commented that the City does need a
reservoir. The people on the hill need better water
pressure.
Council Member Harris said we still need a reserve water
supply if we are going to be a water district. Each year the
construction gets more expensive. We need action, not talk.
Ross Earnst, Public Words Director, explained that they
decided to put in 16" line to take the water from the
reservoir down to the valley if it were needed quickly. This
was based on fine flows. The 16" is oversized for just a
pump station. The reservoir is needed for three reasons:
(1) To equalize the amount of water to avoid the demand
charge; (2) To provide water for every customer in case we
lose the supply from Seattle; (3) Fire flow.

Mayor Van Dusen declared the Public Hearing open on the
request from Sabey Corporation and Inco Express to vacate the
portion of 35th Avenue So. generally lying north of South
134th from South 124th to the end of 35th Avenue So. tra-
velling north.
Mr. Phil Talmadge, representing Inco Express, explained that
Inco Express and Sabey Corp. are jointly petitioning the City
for this vacation. Inco owns lots 9 through 15 and Mr. De
Patro owns lot 16 on the east. On the west side of 35th is
Sabey Corporation. He asked that the street vacation occur
without any cost or compensation. In 1985 -86 King County
issued a commercial building permit with certain conditions'
to Sabey. The County required that landscaping occur, that a
firelane be provided - -this was a defacto vacation of the
street. It was done without notice to Inco. There was
flooding onto Inco property as a result of the blacktopping
that occurred. All of this caused problems between all
parties involved. This went on for a long period of time
without significant action by the County. .Finally in
February, 1989, the King County Prosecutor said that the
County would proceed with a vacation of 35th Ave. South. The
County agreed, in writing, that this would be done without
cost to Inco. They are asking that Tukwila waive the compen-
sation because the County promised that this street vacation
would occur without compensation.
Council Member Harris asked if Inco is going to dedicate the
south 10 feet of lot 9 to the City.

Mr. Talmadge said this is not something connected with the

There being no further testimony from the audience, Mayor Van
Dusen closed the Public Hearing.
MOVED BY BAUCH, SECONDED BY DUFFIE, THAT THE STREET VACATION

MOTION CARRIED.
Mayor Van Dusen declared the Public Hearing open on the pro-
posed annexation of five houses located at approximately 53rd
Ave. So. and South 139th, across from Foster Park. The area
under discussion should have been included in the 1989 Foster
Annexation, but due to an error by the Boundary Review Board,
the area was omitted.
Steve Ormiston, 13726 53rd Ave. So., spoke in opposition to
the annexation. This is just another bureaucracy to deal
with.
George Thornton, 13738 53rd Ave. So., said he built his house
there in 1959 and has seen a lot of changes. He is opposed
to annexation.
There being no further comments, the Public Hearing was
closed.
MOVED BY MORIWAKI, SECONDED BY STOKNES, THAT THE PROPOSED
ORDINANCE BE READ BY TITLE ONLY. MOTION CARRIED.
City Attorney Colgrove read an ordinance of the City of
Tukwila, Wash., enacted pursuant to RCW 35A.14, annexing an

Mayor Van Dusen read a letter from James Tracy, Director of

annexation in the interest of efficient service delivery.
Helen Thornton, 13738 53rd Ave. So., explained that arguing
on this annexation started before 1959 and has been going on
since; it has to stop. May be with annexation it will stop.
When they were not allowed to vote on annexation, it added
fuel to the fire. People's feelings were hurt. They were
denied the right to vote.

Council Member Bauch spoke in opposition to the ordinance.
At the public hearing it was obvious that the people in the
area did not want this. The proposed zoning has only been in
the Comp. Plan for about three months, and there is no reason
to change it now.
Council Member Harris agreed with Mr. Bauch. The people in
the area want it to be R- 1 -7.2.
Council Member Moriwaki concurred. One of the primary
reasons the City Council supported the annexations was to
increase the single family residential density of the com-
munity, and this would be taking away from that objective.
There are nice homes in that area, and it would be sad to see
them destroyed just for quick profit.

TO EXECUTE AN ELECTRICAL REPAIR AGREEMENT.*
Mayor Van Dusen explained that they are waiting for some new
language to be added to the agreement on overhead costs.
Ross Earnst, Public Works Director, explained that the City
is agreeing to pay one -half the cost of the maintenance and
operation of the 16th Avenue Bridge. It is estimated to be
about $250,000 per year. The City is proposing to King
County that the overhead be limited to the level of the
County Road Engineer. The City Attorney has reworded the
indemnification clause on page 7.
Mayor Van Dusen said the changes to the agreement are not
available at this time. He postponed consideration for two
weeks.

Rick Beeler, Planning Director, reported on Building Permit
applications. The Bon Marche in Southcenter has been issued
a permit for an atrium. With this they are doing almost a
total remodel of the store. The Boeing Credit Union
Building, South 133rd and Interurban is in the office for
review. Construction should start in another month.
The south wall for one of the retail buildings on the pond
property has been constructed. Along with the brick wall is
a rock wall with wire mesh stretched over it. Apparently the
weight of this has changed the underground drainage so now
instead of having a 13' elevation of the pond, it is up to
14'9 ". This was unexpected. The elevation is now at the
outfall. Before construction began the wall was 25' from the
edge of the pond. The edge has now moved up to about 6' from
the wall.
The permit for Burger King is in its final review. It will
be located on the Andover West side of the pond development.

ADJOURNMENT
9:17 p.m.
We are going to allow people to build projects but not have
review. We would not allow our residents to do this. He
wants "tenant improvements" included to clarify the type of
permits. He asked to have the ordinance worded so that no
work will be done for any tenant improvement that effects or
modifies the structural integrity of the building.
Rick Beeler explained that maybe there should be something
that makes it more clear that is for trial basis only. The
benefit is that the contractor can start work at their own
risk. Basically we are talking about non- structural
construction.
George Hartong, City Attorney, explained that the policy is
created for any person that meets the criteria. They can
take advantage of this new administrative policy. It is not
special legislation. It is not created for a few
corporations.
None of the requirements of the building code are eliminated.
The builder must comply with everything. Only the sequence
is changed. It is possible to do some work before the permit
is obtained. The applicant must get a permit, no inspections
are waived, all requirements must be met. This policy does
not sacrifice fire life safety or any of the requirements of
the UBC or UFC.

5. WHAT IS THE CURRENT ZONING OF THE PROPERTY? Both Parcels R -1
6. WHAT IS THE SIZE OF THE PROPERTY? Parcel A 18,200 SF. Approx.
Parcel B 39,000 SF. Approx.
7. WHAT ZONING CLASSIFICATION IS REQUESTED? M -1
8. WHAT IS THE COMPREHENSIVE LAND USE MAP DESIGNATION? M -1
REZONE CRITERIA:
The burden of proof in demonstrating that the change is appropriate lies solely
upon the proponent. Generally, the more dramatic the change, the greater will
be the burden of showing that the proposed change is in conformance with the
Comprehensive Plan as implemented by the Zoning Ordinance. The proponent must
show in a clear and precise manner why the rezoning application should be
granted. The Planning Commission and City Council will review your proposal
using the following criteria. You may attach additional sheets and submit other
documentation to support your rezone application.
9. The use or change in zoning requested shall be in conformity with the
adopted comprehensive land use policy plan, the provisions of this title,
and the public interest;
riESObilmhe_change in zoning is in conformance with the adopted Comprehensive Plan.
2. See July 28,1989 letter to Jack Pace Re: Zoning'at annexation.
10. The use or change in zoning requested in the zoning map or this title for
the establishment of commercial, industrial, or -residential use shall be
supported by an architectural site plan showing the proposed development and
its relationship to surrounding areas as set forth in the application form;
RESPONSE: At this time we do not have a specific project for us to base a sited,.
plan. Our 'wish is to be .consistant with the property we already own(M -1)
which abutts the property in question. By obtaining a rezone we wiirl hP ahle
to establish our site plan with a use
11. When the request is not in agreement with the Comprehensive Land Use Policy
Plan, the applicant shall provide evidence to the City Council's satisfac-
tion that there is an additional need for the requested land classification.
To respond to this criteria, obtain a Comprehensive Plan Amendment Applica-
tion and submit in conjunction with Rezone Application.
NA
REZONE APPLICATION
Page 3
12. Significant changes have occurred in the character, conditions or surround-
ing neighborhood that justify or otherwise substantiate the proposed rezone.
RESPONSE: 1. Much of theimmediate neighorhood has already been developed M -1.
2. Several of the homes in the area are rental and they are not being cared fot
the same as owners might. Declining residental neighborhood.
3. The property's proximity to 2 major freeways has created a loud noise
area not suitable for residental developement.
13. The proposed rezone is in the best interest of the public health, safety,
and welfare as compared to the hardship, such as diminution of property
value, imposed on the individual property owner.
RESPONSE: This rezone should not be a hardship to anyone. The value of the land exceeds
the value of the homes in this area if zoned M -1, which is consistant with the comp-
rehensive Plan. New Residental Development in this area would not be in the best
interest of public Health, Safety and Welfare because of the freeway
noise_
14. The unimproved subject property is unsuitable for the purpose for which it
has been zoned considered in the context of the length of time the property
has remained unimproved and land development in the surrounding area.
RESPONSE: Industry in the immediate area.
Declinning neighborhood - Transition from owner to renters.
Noise from freeways.

Mr. Jack Pace
Senior Planner
City of Tukwila
6200 Southcenter Boulevard
Tukwila, WA 98188
Dear Mr. Pace:
We have just found out that the annexation task force is recommending
that the zoning be residential for the area between the existing City
limit, 134th Street, 48th Avenue, and 135th Street. Please see the
attached map.
This property is located next to two major freeways and is extremely
noisy. Residential use of this property is poor planning. There is
already industry in the area and the boundaries described above are a
logical place to have M -1 zoning.
We, the undersigned, hereby request that our property be zoned M -1
when annexed to the City of Tukwila. M -1 is consistent with other e
properties located in the immediate area which are currently in the
City of Tukwila, as well as follows the existing comprehensive plan
of this City.
Respectfully Submitted,
Elling Halvor
