Bauch, Mayor AUGUST 1979 MAYOR'S REPORT As we conclude the first half of 1979, it is time to reflect on some of the accomplishments experienced by the City in the last six months and some of the issues and concerns facing us during the remainder of the year. ITEM: Interurban Avenue turnback to the City by special action of the State Legislature at my request. This now gives the City of Tukwila ownership of Interurban Avenue within the City borders. I have recommended to the Coun- cil the installation of a traffic light at 58th Ave. South and Interurban. They have approved and engineering is now underway. ITEM: The residential upgrading program is well under- way and is causing some inconvenience. Be understand- ing as the temporary inconvenience is well worth it. Some people have requested not to have their streets improved and the City will honor these requests. ITEM: Metro has allocated 100,000 additional hours of k service to the suburban areas of King County. If you ideas of where these routes should run, please let me ki _0/, and I'll pass them on. Your input on this matter is im- portant, as the basis for allocation and route determina- tions will be ridership. If no significant residential or corpo- rate citizen interest exists, we cannot expect much im- provement in the current Metro Bus service to our area. ITEM: We are now engaged in the library project at the old City Hall. Restoration and conversion should be com- plete in the next few months, with opening scheduled in the fall. Additionally, we are also working on having the building added to the National Register of Historical Pla- ces. The hearing for this addition will be held on August 24th in Olympia. ITEM: Southgate Community Center has been open and operational now for one year. Parking lot improvements have been substantially completed utilizing $25,000 in King County Community Block Grant funds. These improve- ments will facilitate the growing participation of the many fine recreational programs at the center. ITEM: Sister Cities affiliation with the City of Ikawa-Cho, Japan, is nearing reality. In September the City will enter- tain a delegation from Ikawa headed by Mayor Akira So- gabe. At that time each City will trade resolutions formaliz- ing Sister Cities affiliation. Citizen's groups and civic organi- zations are encouraged to contact my office if they are interested in participating in this most worthwhile and cul- turally enriching union between cities of different nations. As Mayor, I look forward to the remaining months of 1979, certain that significant accomplishments can be achieved with the many on-going programs and projects within the City. I remind all of Tukwila's citizens, both resi- dential and corporate, that I welcome hearing your com- ments, suggestions and concerns. Stop by my office at City Hall or telephone my office at 433-1805. `rnar14 e1r ,m iL4 CITIZENS SERVING THEIR COMMUNITY Help carry the ball Deanna Adair In a society where the majority of people "don't want to get involved," Tukwila is very fortunate, our citizens are eager to participate. Tukwila is served by nine separate c' mmissions, boards, and committees. iL SERVICE COMMISSION The Civil Service Commission enforces the rules and reg- ulations for the hiring and promotion of police and fire personnel. They regulate examinations, appointments, promotions, transfers, reinstatements, demotions, suspen- sions and discharges within the departments. Serving on the Civil Service Commission are Steven Phelps, Chair- man, Anna Bernhard and Elanor McLester. The meetings are held the second Wednesday of each month at City Hall, 7:00 p.m. PLANNING COMMISSION The Planning Commission serves primarily in an advisory capacity to the city legislative body, making recommen- dations on subdivisions, rezones, and land use related plans and ordinances. In addition, the Commission is vested with the authority to make decisions on conditional use permits and architectural/site plan reviews. The mem- bers of the Planning Commission are Richard Kirsop, Chair- man, John Richards, Joe Orrico, Eileen Avery, Jerry James, Leo Sowinski and Steve Welsh. They meet on the second and fourth Thursday of each month at 8:00 p.m. at City Hall. (Continued on page 21 PARK COMMISSION The Park Commission serves in an advisory capacity to the City Council and submits recommendations it may have regarding the acquisition, development, expansion and operation of parks and recreational facilities and programs in the City. The members of the Park Commis- sion are Donna Segale, Chairperson, Wayne Nelson, Mil- dred Heppenstall, Dick Brunk and Ann Crain. The commis- sion meets regularly on the first Wednesday of each month, 7:00 p.m. at the Tukwila Community Center. BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT The Board of Adjustment hears and decides appeals from orders, recommendations, permits, decisions or de- terminations made by a City official and acts on variances from the zoning code ordinance and other land use reg- ulatory ordinances.

Suddenly annexation to Tukwila is a popular idea ' r some years of inactivity. The city is currently consic five annexation petitions. 1) The Riverton area northwest of the city, east of Highway 99 and south of the Duwamish River. 2) The Segale annexation adjacent to Russell Road at the south City boundary. 3) The Allentown area northeast of the city including the communities of Allentown, Duwamish and Foster Point. 4) Crestview, a portion of McMicken Heights lying south of 1-518, northeast of Military Road and north of South 168th Street. 5) The Schneider annexation that lies east of 1-5 and south of 178th Street South. A comparison of some of the characteristics of these areas with Tukwila is presented below. Please note that in each instance, the residents or owners initiated the annex- ation action. State law, and the annexation policy of the city, requires that we consider them. 1st & 3rd Mondays 7:00 p.m. . 2nd & 4th Mondays 7:00 p.m. Bud Bohrer Council President AREA REGION (Acres) APPROX. POPULA- ASSESSED TION VALUE Riverton 272 906 $ 14,790,650 Segale 201 1 43,200 Allentown 256 930 14,688,000 Crestview 307 1900 18,582,100 Schneider 22 8 95,900 Tukwila 2464 3160 360,000,000 You might reasonably ask "Why do these people want to annex to Tukwila?" For Segale and Schneider the son is to avail themselves of city services for develop. 0. For Riverton, Allentown and Crestview, largely single fam- ily residential areas, the primary reason for annexation appears to be to obtain the benefits of local government. Tukwila is responsive to the desires of its residents and is accessible to them. The city council meets in the even - PETITION DATE Sept., 1978 Feb., 1979 Feb., 1979 April, 1979 April, 1979 ings when most interested residents c .attend, The King County council is remote and meets in aowntown Seattle during the days. The elected officials of Tukwila live in the city and are familiar with local conditions and problems. The land use and development policies of Tukwila are th' -attuned to local desires, a major factor here. Lower t< better police and fire protection and lower fire in- sui -. ,ce rates for Tukwila add to the attraction. School and water and sewer service are generally unaffected by annexation. There are a number of reasons why Tukwila is interested in annexations. A larger population base would increase the number of candidates for political office and the par- ticipants in city boards and commissions. The balance in our residential housing would be improved. Currently more than 60% of our residents live in apartments or condomin- iums. The average for all of King County is about 30% mul- tiple family residents. The balance between the residential and commercial land uses in the city would be improved also. The city's future revenues would be more stable should methods of taxation change. The city has had difficulty justifying the request of grants because of its small popu- lation, although its needs and problems are similar to larger cities. Also the image and vitality would be in- creased by the growth in population. It also lowers the taxes of Tukwila residents by spreading the base for our bonded indebtedness. There are negative aspects of annexation including talk of takeover. County residents frequently accuse city offi- cials of wanting to "take them over," but that concern has no basis in fact. Fear that the apartment dwellers in the City would organize and take over the city has been voiced. However, no issue has been identified that would inspire such singleness of purpose in a group of individ- uals with so little in common. The possibility of the voters of Crestview taking over the city has been expressed. Again n ical issue has been identified. Land use, the primary c� ern of the Crestview petitioners, will be resolved by adoption of zoning for Crestview prior to annexation. The takeover comment may have been a frustrated reaction to the inability to influence land use and other policies of King County. Increase in population will dilute the strength of your vote in following elections — we get voters with the new residents. Some dilution occurs continually as residential construction, largely apartments and condominiums, continues in the City. Like the bad joke about how the mating of elephants occurs, annexation takes place very carefully. The annex- ation residents or owners petition, the city council accepts the petition, the city planning commission recommends zoning, the city council adopts zoning, the boundary re- view board approves or revises the boundaries, the annex- ation area residents approve the annexation by majority vote at a public election, the city council may then ap- prove the annexation by majority vote. As in the case of the Riverton proposal, residents and businesses can pro- test the action, sue for redress and delay if not stop the process. The annexation process is long and arduous. Only when both parties, the city and the petitioners, conclude the community of interests and mutual benefits outweigh the disadvantages can the action be completed. Ti IKWILA PUBLIC WORKS i _PARTMENT As the City of Tukwila grows, so do the responsibilities and challenges of the Tukwila Public Works Department. The sudden expansion of the City and private facilities had led to the need for more information, more record - 3 keeping function: anning for the future and more day- to-day response to me public in general. To implement all these projects and plans for the City, 3 new staff members have joined the Public Works De- partment. Phillip Fraser, Senior Engineer, manages the en- gineering division of the Public Works Department and is responsible for project management and public liaison with developers, contractors and citizens. He formerly was employed with the City of Seattle Engineering Depart- ment and served as Project Engineer for various public works improvements since 1969. Wes Jorgenson, a 1978 Civil Engineering graduate from the University of Wash- ington, joined the staff as Junior Engineer. He is involved in design and inspection of the City's projects among many other field and office duties. The newest member of the Tukwila Public Works Department is Janet Martinka. Janet joined us in June as Administrative Secretary to the Director of Public Works. She has previously worked for the Olivetti Corp. in Seattle and the Village of Spring Lake in Spring Lake, Michigan. The Department, consisting of engineering and main- tenance divisions, is administered by Terence R. Monag- han, P.E. as Public Works Director. Terry Monaghan was appointed to this position in February, 1978 after having been employed by a Bellevue consulting firm for 2 years. He holds a degree in Civil Engineering from St. Martins College in Olympia and Professional Engineering licen- ses in the States of Washington and New York. All of us in the Public Works Department are aware of our continual obligations to inform the public of the many projects and the people involved in them and to assist the public with their needs and requests. The services provided are an integral part of our citizens' everyday lives. How? We improve and maintain the City streets, water system and sewer system, parks and public build- ings. We attend to the daily needs and plan the future fa- cilities. We make every effortto makethe City a safe, heal- thy and comfortable place to live and work. Service is our goal and progress is our most important project. PUBLIC WORKS PROJECT UPDATE The Public Works Department has had no time for sum- mer vacations so far this year. In addition to the small pro- jects and daily events of the City and the major develop- ments of the business community, several priority projects budgeted for 1979 are underway. The Street Improvement Project on 56th Avenue South between South 142nd Street and South 147th Street and on South 147th Street between 56th Avenue South and 57th Avenue South is now fully into construction. While residents there patiently tolerate the dust, mud and inter- rupted utility services from time to time, the City is confi- dent it will deliver a safer and more attractive street in- cluding sidewalks and storm water drainage. Construc- tion is scheduled to be completed by the end of July. Plans and specifications for the 1979 Street Improve- ment Project are ready for bid and the residents along 57th Avenue South between South 147th Street and South 149th Street and along South 147th Street between 57th Avenue South and 58th Avenue South have been invited to review the final plans. The project includes sidewalks, storm drainage, curbs and gutters, rockeries and street paving. Bids will be received in mid-July and construc- tion will likely begin mid-August and be completed by the end of October. LID 29 and the extended street improvement project in the vicinity of 62nd Avenue South, South 153rd Street and 64th Avenue South are also schedule ,or construction this summer. Neighborhood meetings have been held to provide an opportunity to the property owners to partici- pate in the design phase. The Public Works Department staff and Entraco Engin- eers, consultants to the City, are involved in a critical and timely study of the City's traffic and transportation needs. A report is being compiled to recommend solutions to our immediate problems both in the residential and com- mercial/industrial communities of the City. More impor- tantly, long-range goals and plans will be developed to cope with the City's rapid and extensive growth. The study will consider street improvement needs and de- signs, parking requirements, mass transit feasibility and pedestrian facilities as well as administrative guidelines. We hope this study will provide the information necessary to create facilities to aid vehicles and pedestrians within and through the City of Tukwila. LETTERS TO THE EDITOR The editors of the Hazelnut welcome comments from readers, both on the newspaper and on views or ques- tions about our City government. All letters will be answered, and if space permits, be published in the Hazelnut, CRIME WATCH NEW ALARM ORDINANCE Pat Lowery On July 16, '1979 a new alarm ordinance, Ordinance Number 1117, will go into effect. This ordinance is con- cerned primarily with burglar/intrusion/robbery alarms and will NOT prohibit or limit the utilization of fire alarm systems. The ordinance resulted from an ever increasing num- ber of false alarms, 396 in 1973 to 703 in 1978. It is esti- mated that each false alarm accounts for one hour of non -patrol time while the officer checks the premise and waits for the arrival of the alarm subscriber. This is time the officer is not available to carry out his routine duties and the rest of the community is at a loss for his services. 703 hours lost to the patrol function represents 4 months of one officer's 12 month work schedule. In an effort to reduce this loss, in both pay and service, it is the intent of the City to impose a $25 fine for each false alarm in excess of two within any one calendar year. A study of past false alarms points out two major causes; lack of employee training and malfunctioning equipment. The fine should provide the incentive for em- ployers to provide better employee training programs and insist their alarm companies maintain the equip- ment in good working order. The ordinance will provide a tool that should be help- ful in reducing the number of lost patrol hours attributed to false alarm response. This gain in patrol time will be re- invested in normal patrol procedures providing better police coverage and services. Residents presently maintaining or contemplating fu- ture installation of an alarm system utilizing an outside bell to warn of intrusion into their home, business or vehi- cle should be particularly aware of the content of the new ordinance and should refer any questions to Pat Lowery, Crime Prevention Officer, Tukwila Police Depart- ment, 433-1822. 4 CITY OF T. {WILA WASHINGTON /ORDINANCE NO.1117 AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF TUKWILA, WASHIP TON, PROHIBITING DIRECT DIALING AUTOMATIC T, PHONE DIALING SYSTEMS TO THE TUKWILA POLICE DEPAi<i- MENT; PROVIDING FOR CHARGES FOR FALSE ALARMS; PROVIDING FOR WRITTEN NOTIFICATION OF CONNEC- TION TO OUTSIDE AUDIBLE INTRUSION ALARMS; AND PRO- VIDING FOR PENALTIES FOR VIOLATION OF THE ORDINANCE.

FOSTER GOLF BRIDGE REPAIRED This spring the Tukwila Public Works Department select- ed J.E. Collins & Company to repair the golf cart bridge at the Tukwila owned Foster Golf Links. In May of 1978, the City purchased the golf course and hired Golf Man- agement Inc. to operate the course and also set aside dollars to provide major improvements to the course and bridge. The Collins Company will repair or replace, according to Entraco Engineering Consultants, much of the steel work, replace the floor beams and relocate the cable anchors on the west side. The entire bridge is to be re- painted. All construction work is to be done in such a manner that use of the bridge by golfers will not be inter- rupted. The contract amount is S10,985. Work began the end of May and should be com- pleted by mid July. 1111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111, IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII111111I1111111111II111UI1111IIIIII111111G\,IIIIII111111Il111111111111111711111111111u11111Ilnnllll1111j PUBLISHED QUARTERLY an I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I/ I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I1111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111 I THE hIHZELiSiIT E N an E N E N on an am - _ bv, the City, of Tulwila 6200 Southcenter Boulevard Tukwila, Washington 98188 Written by City employees Edited by John McFarland & Deanna Adair Printed by%,F; Printing Control Services, Inc.
