Kjell Stoknes, Director of OCD, stated the proposed development comes
under the waiver process because of the lake that is involved. The
Council can review the proposed development and make a decision as to
whether or not a waiver will be granted next week at the regular
Council meeting. The Council may make the decision to refer the
matter back to Staff or to the Planning Commission. Council President
Van Dusen asked if the applicant was aware of the waiver check list
that the Council uses in making the decision. Mr. Chauncey, Chartwell
Development Corporation, said he was aware of the criteria of the
check list.
Councilman Hill arrived at the Committee of the Whole Meeting at
7:15 p.m.
Mr. Chauncey, Chartwell Development Corproation, introduced Mr. Brawn
and Mr. Paul, architects. Mr. Brawn made a slide presentation of the
proposed development, stating they had set six objectives. The first
was that they had covered the principles of development in a system-
atic sense. These principles were clearly stated, they were workable,
they were believable, and as a Council they could best expect they
would make refinements, but not major changes, as the ongoing plan
developed. Second, that the pond and the wetland is a resource of
the City at this stage and has the ability of being a resource and
an amenity to the development. Third, Chartwell asked the architects
to seek to have the minimum amount of car parking visible from within
and outside of the development. Fourth, that the traffic system
that was generated for the development on the site was such that
ingress and egress to the site could be eased and facilitated by
slip roads if they became necessary. Fifth, that there is an
emerging urban characteristic to this part of the valley and to the
extent that it is possible they should reinforce and extend that urban
characteristic. Sixth, that they should not forget that once people
get out of their cars they are in a pedestrian mode and the development
should seek to achieve a human scale. There are views down onto the
site from the expressway; there are some warehouse developments to
the south that may need screening through plantings. The location of
the lake is such that building could be done to the north side of the
site and make the most of the side facing the south for sun entry and
public people places, minimizing shadow caused by buildings. He said
they should be able to, for leasing purposes, get clear visual access
to the major retail components of the proposed development and the
site is large enough to create a number of different but harmonious
settings for different types of land use such as retail, commercial,
hotel and park -like setting. The pond is held in its present location
with the major area of wetland left as wetland in support of the wild-
life. He said they have sought to keep an area which would leave a
natural situation rather than a zoological situation, it is kept at
a scale that would require ongoing support to maintain the wildlife.
He said they also propose to introduce an island, as suggested in
the guidelines, such that feeding and mating can happen away from the
edges of the pond. This proposal has a total of 11 acres made up of
wetland and water. The proposal that was previously considered from
another group was a total of 7 acres. He said they are talking about
11 acres plus 4 more acres of open space made up of such pieces as
the setback areas that will be landscaped and also around the west facE

Waiver request The landscaping would be part of the boulevard. Certain character
Chartwell Dev. Corp. istics of the pond will be retained to keep the wildlife. He said
for proposed dev. there would be two sites for hotels, there will be three locations for
of Tukw. Pond Site major retail stores, connected between them would be smaller retail
contd. stores. Along the north and east face of the lake there would be
opportunity for additional 200 beds in a hotel sense, office space,
some retail such as restaurants, in the middle as a focus would be a
glazed atrium public space as part of the mall, and also entry out
into the boulevard area. He said they had a similar situation in
Vancouver a few hundred yards from their office. It is called Lost
Lagoon at the edge of Stanley Park. He said the bird life maintains
an existence just a few hundred feet from one of the most densely
populated areas in Canada. People can walk out and be over the water.
There could be cafeterias in the lower levels of the commercial space
whereby they could be elevated and benefit from the presence of the
lake without necessarily feeling they have to go right to the edge of
the lake, separated from the lake by the boulevard and the planting
strips. The proposed development is sitting on the more traditional
open parking areas that are expressed in the Southcenter situation.
For both commercial and retail development, it is possible that from
the streets you feel close to 100% of the parking will be screened
from view. This will be achieved primarily by placing between the
retail strips the malls that are connecting the department stores and
the commercial developments that are on the edge of the lake in
structured parking. Also, beneath the level of retail, which we
understand will need to be above the road levels because of flood
conditions to meet certain State requirements, there will be one,
perhaps two, levels of parking. We also feel this will be a benefit
related to some of your other conerns, because this will mean we will
not have to ship in a lot of fill. You will be able to park pretty
well on the level that exists there now, and in some cases take out
some of the fill.
We are aware of the concern you have for traffic at the intersection
of Strander Boulevard and Andover Park West. In that sense our traffic
engineer has proposed that part of the boulevard allows them to, in the
case of Andover West, some 900 feet back from the critical intersection
come in with the boulevard, skirt around the face of the pond and come
out at Strander Boulevard some 1300 feet from the intersection.
Between these connections of the boulevard to the existing streets
they would propose two entrances and exits for parking. It is
possible for people to come in through one entrance, hit the boulevard
and go out onto another street and this will facilitate their easier
leaving of the site and the use of existing streets. The parking
would be unseen. We are proposing outside of the retail development
a 100 foot strip of parking which would be elevated up a few feet
from the existing road levels. That would be screened, with planting
around the top. In the two corners are the sites for the major hotels,
600 rooms each. The detail planning as to where the additional 200
rooms would be has not been resolved as yet. The prime tenants would
have smaller shops in between. There will be a people mover system
that would move people from the parked car through the development in
a separate plane of movement, and across the street to Southcenter if
this proves necessary.
To summarize, the proposal is that there be two locations for major
hotels, places for three major department stores, with retail in a
shopping mall. Commercial office and some retail coming through the
parking on the other side of the parking would make use of the
environment created by the lake. There will be an atrium in the
middle. The atrium will be a large public space, sky lit, high, in
which public assemblies, concerts, etc., can be held. We want to
show you a systematic structure development such as you would feel
confident that you understood how it was being approached and
that as long as the interest that has been expressed in the land
through Chartwell by potential tenants stays there would only be
minor changes in the development. The pond is an amenity and a re-
source now that needs to be respected as a part of the City and it
also has the benefit of being a resouce to the development. As much
as possible the parking should be hidden from view and we feel we have
achieved that. The traffic system at this early stage of planning is

contd.
Council President Van Dusen asked if this plan could be carried out
as far as the City's fill and height requirements are concerned.
Mr. Stoknes said yes, the concern is that the first floor elevation
must meet the human use requirement. Parking lots do not need to
meet flood conditions. He said on the raw parking figures it seems
to be short, but parking can be underground. Council President Van
Dusen asked if the developer had thought of dedicating the boulevard
to the City. Mr. Brawn said they had not given it consideration, but
it is something to think about. Council President Van Dusen asked
about the time frame, and Mr. Brawn said they would like to have the
project completed within five years. Council President Van Dusen said
Resolution 656 called out the area retained in its natural condition
is to be located on the southeast portion of the site, generally
between the southeast corner of the property and extending west to
the southwest corner of the pond. Mr. Brawn said they understood
there were several concerns, one was the nesting area, and he said
they had provided the island for the nesting and natural habitat of
wildlife.
Council President Van Dusen asked about the people mover. Mr. Brawn
said it is a system of small cars that move along. The cars can be
added or taken away according to the load requirements. Each car holds
about 25 people. It is motorized and is presently in use at Duke
University. It is not a moving sidewalk. It is noiseless and a safe
system. It is trying to be sold as a light rapid transit in some areas
He said they would like to put in that system in their development.
Fred Satterstrom said sidewalks are in on Andover Park West, but not
on Strander Boulevard.
Councilman Bohrer asked if the Chartwell Corporation has had a site
survey made. He said the resolution that the Council passed said
that approximately one -third of the site should be left in its natural
state. He asked to have that one -third pointed out to him, it seems
that the lake has been reconstructed entirely, he said. Mr. Brawn
said the present boundaries of the lake on the west face go down
about there (using a wall map) and on the north face about here (wall
map) and then cuts back, so there would be more lake created. Council-
man Bohrer said when he calculates the area it is 9 acres, one -third
of the site should be 13 acres. Mr. Brawn said the lake is something
like 6 -3/4 acres, there are the wetlands and landscaped areas. Coun-
cilman Bohrer asked if any soil surveys had been made. Mr. Brawn
said the soil was tested, it was done by City Light in 1970. Council-
man Bohrer said the people movers are an interesting idea. He asked
what the frequency would be? Mr. Brawn said the cars will accommodate
20 to 25 people. They will run on a frequency of 2.0 feet. It will be
a computer hook -up, programmed to run as demanded. He said the system
is in operation at Duke University on a campus setting. Councilman
Bohrer said he found their thought of putting the parking underground,
eliminating the need for fill, very attractive. That was one that
was expected to be a very strong environmental impact on City Light
proposal. They were expecting to run trucks night and day for the
better part of a year to carry in enough fill for the site. He said
one of the guidelines in the Council Development Guidelines was that
visual access be provided from both Strander and Andover Park. He
asked to be shown the Chartwell proposal that would allow that. Mr.
Brawn pointed out how it had been provided on the wall chart. Coun-
cilman Bohrer asked if they expected to provide a footpath around the
lake? Mr. Brawn said at this state they have not made any definite
proposals on that. Councilman Bohrer asked what sort of trade studies
had been made by the development in deciding how they would use the
buildings? He asked if this was the only concept they had used in
placing buildings on the site? Mr. Brawn said there were variations
on the theme but the water being where it is tends to limit options.
He said they felt the north side is already filled; it is close to
existing Southcenter; the edge of the pond is a very handsome site for
hotel development; and once they found they could manipulate the
physical form such that a boulevard could be introduced it seemed to

of Tukw. Pond Site Councilman Bohrer said basically there is a 200 foot strip down the
contd. west side that is probably broad enough to lend itself to some develop-
ment. He said as he looked at the hotel plan forms they appear to be
roughly 200 feet square. If you took the hotel that is down in the
southeast corner and moved it over to the southwest corner it would
seem that there is, under such an approach, a couple of objectives
accomplished. First, we get visual access to Andover Park West and
second, we reduce the amount of reconstruction of the lake and let more
of it remain in a natural state. He said part of his concern is that
it seems that by completely reconstructing the lake, which it seems is
going on, that the habitat for the wildlife is destroyed during the
construction period. If it is left natural during construction then
they can continue to exist while the construction goes on rather than
having to find another site and then return at a later time. Mr.
Brawn said he did not see there would be any problem in moving the
hotel from one side to the other. Councilman Bohrer said he had thought
the depth of the lake a t the deepest part was ten feet. Mr. Satter
strom said eight to ten feet would be the deepest part of the lake in
the middle during the winter time. Councilman Bohrer asked the status
of the negotiations with the City of Seattle regarding the purchase
of the property. Mr. Brawn said it has gone to the Mayor and the
City Council and the form of the contract has been approved. He said it
is scheduled for review during the coming week. Councilman Saul asked
what date the Chartwell Corporation had for starting the development.
Mr. Brawn said they would like to start as soon as possible, as
soon as they can get building permits. Councilman Harris asked if
they have commitments for the buildings. Mr. Brawn said they did have
commitments for the buildings. Councilman Saul asked if they are
doing the building or will they sublet. Mr. Brawn said the buildings
would be built for them and then leased out. Council President Van
Dusen said in referring to Fred Satterstrom's memorandum of January 4,
1979 that he stated if the Council grants this waiver then they can
go ahead and apply for building permits and there will be certain
changes and corrections that will have to be made. Mr. Satterstrom
said that is correct. The property is presently zoned C -M and would
require rezoning to C -P for the mall -type retail activity that has
been planned. They will have to go through the Planning Commission
before they build, they will have to apply for a rezone, all of these
reviews would be accomplished before the building permit is given. When
they come in for a grading permit they will have to comply with SEPA.
Some of these permits can run concurrently. Mr. Stoknes said with the
complexity of the building he did not see how the permits could be
accomplished before the end of next summer. He said most of this can
be done in- house.
Council President Van Dusen said it is a complex development and he
felt only a small percentage of the problems have been addressed.
Councilman Bohrer said it is complex and this is a conceptual level
of the plan. He said his feeling is that he would like to see another
level of detail before the Council gets too far along in the waiver
process. What he would propose is that the Council do a phase approval,
looking at this generally as a concept, working out the problems, the
complete reconstructing of the lake and the placement of the hotel
building on the southwest corner. He said he would like to see some
alternatives presented there as well as the idea of leaving the nesting
area essentially untouched is one alternative versus the one of trading
for the island. The Council would like to consider those and arrive
at a general site plan of about this level. He said he would like to
ask Chartwell to go back and do some more detail work that has to be
done. He said he would like to see some of the alternatives that have
been mentioned, and then the Council can deal with them at that level.
This would also give the developers a chance to look at it, they might
find another approach that is equally as attractive. Mr. Stoknes
said he felt it will take about two months to get through the rezone
and conditional use permits and then another two months for the update
of the property with respect to the State Environmental Policy Act
review. That would be four months, then it would take at least two
months to draft up the drawings. Councilman Bohrer said he would
like to resolve some of these problems now before we get further down-
stream.

MOVED BY SAUL, SECONDED BY HILL, THAT THE WAIVER REQUEST BY CHARTWELL

MEETING. CARRIED, WITH JOHANSON VOTING NO. (Johanson vote recorded

MOVED BY HILL, SECONDED BY SAUL, THAT THE COMMITTEE OF THE WHOLE
MEETING RECESS FOR TEN MINUTES. CARRIED.
Council President Van Dusen called the Committee of the Whole Meeting
back to order with Council Members present as previously listed.
Mayor Bauch stated the presentation to the Boundary Review Board on
the Riverton Heights annexation would be made by him. He said he would
like to hear any specific requests the Council might have. He said
the City would be developing a specific economic information presenta-
tion that has to do with the money that would come in per capita, the
change in the revenue sharing, the State sharing those things that
would be projected based on what we think the per capita is in that
area. He said we are going to try to make an estimate of what the
sales tax that might come in from the businesses that are down there
will be. He said we expect to present to the Council the exact state
of the roads, the number of miles, etc, what types of storm systems
are in along the existing roads and some kind of projection as to
where they would fit in a six year plan or ten year plan as far as
upgrading the streets. We will be making an assessment of those
areas that are outside of the sewer district. Most of the area is in
a sewer district so it becomes the responsibility of the sewer district,
but there are some areas that are not in a sewer district which would
come under the Tukwila area unless it was depending on where the
trunks might be, like McMicken Heights, even though they were in the
City they would go into Val -Vue Sewer District or some other sewer
district. An assessment of those areas would be a direct concern or
would take action on the part of the City. He said they would be
making an assessment of the impact on the Police Department. We have
already made several inquiries or hearings as far as the Fire Depart-
ment is concerned. If there is additional information the Council
would like to know he said be would be glad to discuss it. Council
President Van Dusen asked if it is possible at the Boundary Review
Board to pick up some areas. Mayor Bauch said if the Boundary Review
Board said they should be included then it goes back to another public
hearing after the effected people are notified by the Boundary Review
Board. That is why it has to come back to the City Council after the
Boundary Review Board is through, because they may modify it. If
there are areas added there would have to be another public hearing
and the people effected by it could be heard at that time.
Councilman Harris asked if the documentation has been prepared showing
the revenue expected versus the expenditures. Mayor Bauch said it is
in process. He said he expected to have all of this developed by
the first of February. He said he expected to bring the basic findings
and the outline of what will be given to the Boundary Review Board to
the Council for their comments. The City Council has to certify the
annexation for election and then it is out of the Council hands. If
the people vote for the annexation, that is it. If the Council is
dissatisfied after it comes back from the Boundary Review Board they
can keep it off the ballot by not accepting the recommendation of the
Boundary Review Board.
Councilman Bohrer said the Mayor is then going to show the Council
the impact on the manning in the .Police and Fire Department and other
departments that might be effected. He said he would like to request
that the information submitted to the Boundary Review Board be made
in matrix insofar as possible. Mayor Bauch said the submittal to the
Boundary Review Board was in answer to a questionnaire and the format
was followed. He said sometimes that does not lead itself to a
proper presentation of data. Councilman Bohrer asked if the Mayor
would take some of the data about the annexation area and show it in
a matrix form. Mayor Bauch said they would 'show what impact this
annexation would have on adjacent jurisdictions. Councilman Hill said
he was glad we are going to know the impact the annexation will have
on the Streets, Fire and Police Departments. He said there was one
bridge he understood the City would have to replace. Mayor Bauch said

Councilman Johanson said he thought the Council should wait now and
see what the Boundary Review Board has to say. Council President
Van Dusen said this seemed to answer most of the questions the Council
could present at this time.
Councilman Bohrer said this ordinance was worked on by the Public
Safety and Health Committee and the intent was to add sections to the
TMC which made theft of credit cards and theft of services illegal
in the City. One subject that caused the ordinance to be delayed in
committee was the fact that there was no verbaqe that made these
offenses illegal. He said he referred this to the City Attorney and
Mr. Woo wrote a section. This amends Ordinance 989. Mayor Bauch
said we are reducing the penalty so it can be tried in our courts. He
said we are making felonies,gross misdemeanors or misdemeanor as mis-
demeanors so they will be City crimes, otherwise we would have to file
them in the County and the County Prosecutor would have to prosecute
them. He is not interested in them. He is too busy on other items
within the County and just refuses to accept them for filing. Council-
man Bohrer asked if there is some place in the TMC that says it is
against the law to commit an act defined as a misdemeanor. Mayor
Bauch said Section 4 says it all. He said we are adopting the RCW by
reference. Mayor Bauch said the City Attorney could explain it in
full at the Council Meeting.

BY REFERENCE CERTAIN SECTIONS OF TITLE 9A RCW WHICH RECLASSIFIES AND
REDEFINES CRIMINAL OFFENSES IN THE STATE OF WASHINGTON AND REPEALING

CODE, AND IT BE ON THE AGENDA OF THE JANUARY 15, 1979 REGULAR COUNCIL
MEETING. CARRIED.
Kjell Stoknes, OCD Director, said a schedule has been proposed whereby
the Council can spend one hour each Committee of the Whole Meeting and
review the update. Mayor Bauch said when he brought this to the
Council a couple of meetings ago he brought out his concern that the
only way we are going to meet the three month deadline is to start
concurrent hearings or concurrent consideration of those things the
Planning Commission has already gone through or has consensus on.
If you look at the zoning ordinance revision progress report they have
outlined five areas that have been considered by the Planning Commissior
This is the index to the zoning ordinance and it is a recommendation
that we look at Item 1 on the first night. If we get through it fine,
if we don't, we will go as far as we can within the time frame that
has been proposed. He said he suggested the Council start looking at
this at the next Committee of the Whole Meeting. If we get through
the part recommended for the first consideration then we will go on
to the next part. If there is something the Council does not like
they can go back to the Planning Commission at this time rather than
wait until they are all done. He said he went to Mr. Stoknes and
conferred with Mr. Satterstrom and this format was brought forth.
Councilman Bohrer said sometime last year the Council reviewed an
outline for the zoning ordinance and there seems to be some deletions
and additions to that outline. Mr. Satterstrom said C -M was deleted
because of its similarity with the M -1 district. The M -1 district as
proposed by the Planning Commission would have a 50 foot setback.
The Special Use Section which was deleted was basically covering a
special use permit granted to public utilities. Public utilities have
not been proposed by staff and are to be reviewed by the Planning
Commission as conditional. The Unclassified Use Permit Section 16.68
has been added. The Shoreline Zone has been added. It is not meant
to be a district that appears on the zoning map. He said they are
proposing to modify the Shoreline Act at the same time. He said it is
an afterthought on the part of OCD. Mr. Stoknes said he would like to
see a revision of this kind every three years. Mr. Satterstrom said
another deletion was that of the PF District. That has been deleted.
These have been picked up by other zones. Council President Van Dusen
said the zoning ordinance review section scheduled for the first
meeting would be considered at the next Committee of the Whole Meeting
on January 22, 1979.

Mayor Bauch stated at the time we were having trouble with the river
crossing we tied into the City of Kent and received water from them
through a meter for about two weeks. He said we wanted to pay the
City of Kent but they wanted us to pump the same amount of water back
to them which we did. He said the City of Kent had a similar situation
in the south end of the City and they installed an intertie at their
cost which is available to us in case we have problems. This will make
an emergency intertie with the City of Kent.
