formal presentation. The day will be concluded with a T6 -flyby in the "missing man" formation, provided
by the Cascade Warbirds.

numbers have been low as of late.
Ms. Lines advised a May 22 visit by Buzz Aldron, astronaut, at 7:00 p.m., who will meet with Museum
members and grant signatures. This is not an advertised item as it is only open to members and guests.
All were encouraged to become members if they have not already done so.
On May 31, the Museum of Flight will open a new exhibit called "Space Toys Toys, games and fanciful
stories of space travel have been around longer than space travel itself, and these expressions of
imagination have been powerful engines of the progress humanity has made among the stars. Exhibit
viewers are encouraged to leave preconceptions of a stuffy museum experience at home as they explore
130 years' worth of space fantasy through more than 1,200 toys, models, games and collectibles. From
Buck Rogers to Star Trek and Flash Gordon to Star Wars, society's evolving vision of space is revealed
through artifacts. A special exhibit will be on display a 46- foot -long replica of Anakin Skywalker's
Podracer from the movie Star Wars: Episode 1 The Phantom Menace!
Finally, on August 23, the Museum will open the "Birth of Aviation" exhibit. This is a "very big exhibit"
which will hopefully draw many patrons to the area. This nation wide promoted exhibit has already
received tremendous participation /support from hotels in the area. It is hoped that many will see this as

an opportunity for a regional trip to come and celebrate the centennial of flight. Tukwila's museum is the
only venue on the west coast to sponsor such a celebration.
b. City of Tukwila Pool Operations Update Malcolm Neely, Aauatics Proaram Coordinator
Malcolm Neely, Aquatics Program Coordinator, informed Council that all aquatics staffers (2.5) were
present and include himself, April Heikkala (Aquatics Specialist) and Robert Eaton (Facilities Operator 1 /2
time).
Using a PowerPoint presentation, Mr. Neely shared the most recent Parks and Recreation Brochure,
wherein his daughter, Shasta, is on the cover, enjoying her time in the City's newly acquired swimming
pool. Featured within the brochure is a picture of the ribbon cutting ceremony for the pool, as well as a
class and course schedule for events at the pool.
In spite of minor delays and some unexpected costs, adversities have been overcome. Swimming lessons
and water exercise programs are under way and are proving very popular. In the best year of King
County operations, a revenue figure of $102,000.00 was achieved. Projected figures for the City's first
year of operation are $174,000.00. Pool figures /participation (including Sundays) are very encouraging.
An aquatics therapy program has been put in place by April Heikkala, after receiving appropriate training.
Two lifeguard training courses have been offered to beef up staff from 9 temporary employees to over
20.
Goals are always safety first for staff at the pool, and the quality of the programs is the key to their
success. Attendance increases have occurred through expanded programs. Staff continues to make
scholarships available for services as well. Facilities operations and upkeep have been brought to a new
level and are being maintained very well by Mr. Eaton.
Capital improvement program options have been developed and include a new pool liner, lighting and
new paint. Anticipated outcomes were shown via pictures of another facility with optimum conditions the
City of Tukwila expects to achieve.
Future desires of staff include a new pump, boiler, pool toys, waterslide, inflatable toys, a rock climbing
wall, a wave pool, and lazy river feature.
To achieve the wants and desires, staff will continue to work on program improvements, planning ahead
and achieving continued support from the community, business and City leaders.
Ms. Heikkala offered a brief synopsis on the aquatic therapy program. This one -on -one program is
designed for patients /clients to improve a person's basic functions after personal injury, such as their
gait, strength, walking abilities, balance, stretching abilities and mobility, after personal injury. April
currently works with a recent stroke patient and others in the desire to help them return to "normal, daily
life" routines.
Many councilmembers gave praise and kudos to Malcolm and his staff for the results already achieved in
the City's short history in owning and operating a swimming pool.
c. Introduction of New Employee Kirstin Walauist Recreation Proaram Assistant
Bruce Fletcher, Director of Parks and Recreation, introduced Kirstin Walquist. A Central Washington
University graduate, Ms. Walquist earned her degree in Recreation. Her position is funded 1 /2 time
through CDBG and 1 /2 through the City's general budget. Kirstin is responsible for the day -to -day
operations relative to the Meals on Wheels program. Additionally, she is responsible for delicatessen

visit to the Tukwila Police Department, wherein Karen Sotace, Police Officer, spent 30 minutes touring the
facility and answering questions of 8 -year old Njay and 16 year -old Kimberly. The letter, in part, states,
"The expending of valuable time out of an Officer's already overloaded schedule to give our children a
heightened sense of security and pride in our community is highly commendable and speaks very well of
our Chief of Police, his staff, and all of our Officers."
Kudos and appreciation were expressed for Officer Sotace and other Tukwila Police Officers for the work
they perform on a daily basis, protecting and serving the members of the community.

in the subdivision, and the residents along 38 Avenue South and 40 Avenue South, on the construction
of the pedestrian pathway connection between the subdivision and 38th Avenue South.
Twenty plus petitions were signed and returned with a box marked, "I do not want the proposed
connecting walkway to the Cascade Glen subdivision at the end of my street." Just two petitions were

City Council Regular Meeting Minutes

returned with a box marked, "I do want the proposed connecting walkway to the Cascade Glen
subdivision at the end of my street."
Mr. Lancaster also advised Council that the applicant for this project has provided a revised plan for
addressing surface water runoff on the property on which the pedestrian path is to be located if that
condition is removed. The applicant proposes to slope the pedestrian pathway area 1% to the west and
re- hydroseed the area to divert any surface water runoff away from the adjacent property at 13264
38 Avenue South.
Finally, Mr. Lancaster reminded Council they may 1) approve the final plat application based on the
information and conclusions stated in the staff report dated April 24, 2003 as presented at the public
hearing May 5, 2003; 2) Remove condition #4 of the preliminary plat approval which requires a
pedestrian path and dictates the material to be used for paving and then approve the final plat
application. He informed Council that if the condition is removed, they must adopt findings of fact and
conclusions of law in support of its removal; or 3) deny the final plat based on findings and conclusions
that it does not comply with the six approval criteria set out in the Tukwila Municipal Code.
David St. Pierre, Assistant City Attorney, administered an oath to those who would testify.
Kathy Stetson. 13258 40 Avenue South, Tukwila„ reported that in the interest of full disclosure,
she is a two -year City of Tukwila employee; former seven -year Planning Commission member, yet
speaking as a 27 -year member of the Tukwila community (at the same address). Her home is located
directly across the street from this [Cascade Glen] development.
Ms. Stetson reported being "astonished that this development has gone through with the cul -de -sac at
the end of a street, with another residential street butting up, right next to it." Realizing nothing can be
done about that, Ms. Stetson encouraged the Council to maintain condition #4 of the preliminary plat
approval (requiring installation of a pedestrian path).
As a veteran Planning Commissioner, Ms. Stetson worked at least once (if not twice) a week during 1994,
analyzing the City's proposed Comprehensive Plan. The Planning Commission met, analyzed, and
reviewed the document line by line to ensure a guide was put in place to guide land use decisions within
the Tukwila community, to make it look, feel and work, the way it is intended. Ultimately, the City
Council adopted the Comprehensive Plan. Ms. Stetson reminded Council that a portion of the goals
within the plan includes reaching out to neighbors, encouraging neighborhood pride, streetscapes that
enhance neighborhood qualities and a strong sense of community. Further, it was reported, a goal was
set to provide pedestrian and other non motorized travel facilities giving priority to sidewalk
improvements that connect public places such as parks, the river, open spaces and neighborhood
gathering spots. Especially noteworthy is the goal set to emphasize a network of residential local access
through streets, minimizing cul -de -sacs.
For these reasons, Ms. Stetson spoke in favor of maintaining the 4 condition of the preliminary plat
approval and called it "ludicrous" for a dead -end street abutting another dead -end street within a single
family residential neighborhood.
Before dosing, Ms. Stetson called it "short sighted and bad policy" to allow a small group of people to
dictate the way a community looks and works when a comprehensive plan is already in place. The
document should be used when considering all developments within the City.
Denise Ometh, 13264 38 th Avenue South„ canvassed the neighborhood as suggested at the May 5
meeting and met with her neighbors regarding the pedestrian path. She noted only two residents (one
couple) were in favor of its installation. She also spoke regarding the uncertainty of an easement
granted her many years ago and whether or not it is an exclusive or non exclusive easement. Calling this
a safety issue which must be addressed, she thanked the Council for listening.
Niael Woodson, 12836 3 Avenue South. Burien, rebutted the testimony and statements made
by resident Kathy Stetson. He spoke in opposition to cul -de -sacs and the installation of the proposed
City of Tukwila
City Council Regular Meeting Minutes
pedestrian path. Mr. Woodson based his statements on 20+ years of law enforcement and security
experience. He noted neither would improve the community spirit, nor the spirit of the neighborhood in
general.
Gary Greer. Seattle, related he is the owner of private property that exists between the cul -de -sac and
the street in the area in question. He spoke against putting a street through there and noted it could not
be done unless through an imminent domain action initiated by the City. He also noted never being
aware of the City planning to put a street through. For those reasons, as well as the knowledge the
would -be homeowners do not want it, he sees no reason for and spoke against the proposed pedestrian
path.
8:18 p.m. Mayor Mullet closed the public hearing.
COUNCIL DELIBERATION.
Deliberation included such desirables as flexibility; liability; compromise; traffic volumes; and the need for
good, pedestrian /urban connections. Also addressed were issues of appearance of fairness, topography
and the use of the City's Comprehensive Plan as a guideline only, not as something cast in stone to which
must be adhered.

CARTER MOVED; LINDER SECONDED; AN ADDITIONAL CONTRIBUTION TO THE AIRPORT
COMMUNITIES COALITION, IN THE AMOUNT OF $50,000.00.*
Discussion:
Joanne McManus. 5610 South 133 Street, is "very much opposed to this." Speaking of broken
cameras on the highway (Tukwila International Boulevard) and non working traffic volunteer trucks
within the City, she said the proposed amount of $50,000.00 could be better spent "at home."
Dennis Robertson. 16038 48 Avenue South. was on the City Council nine years ago when the
first decision was made to contribute to the Airport Communities Coalition. He is still in favor of spending
the money. ACC, in his opinion, is a viable organization and needs money to continue. Calling Tukwila "a
major player in the region," Mr. Robertson noted the South -end (King County cities) need to remain
united.
Councilmember Haggerton provided an update on the Airport Communities Coalition. It was learned
there are cases pending in the Washington State Supreme Court as well as in Federal District Court.
Without the monies being sought by ACC, the Motion for Summary Judgment, pending in Federal District
Court, would be lost.
