A
Okay,
welcome
to
the
City
Council
extended,
extended
study
session
for
January
13
2020,
our
first
order.
Well,
we
have
a
council
member
Janice
on
attending
remotely
from
Washington
DC,
where
she's
at
a
conference
and
the
first
order
of
business
is
to
actually
amend
the
agenda.
So
we
are
going
to
remove
the
fire
prevention
activity
update
if
there's
a
motion
to
do
that.
A
Next,
we
have
written
and
oral
communications
time
allowed
shall
not
exceed
30
minutes.
Speakers
will
be
called
an
order
from
the
signup
sheet.
If
the
number
of
speakers
signed
up
to
speak
exceeds
the
30
minute
period.
The
chair
is
authorized
to
give
preference
to
one
person
speaking
two
items
on
that
meetings,
agenda
or
anticipated,
come
on
the
agenda
within
one
month
or
two
persons
who
have
not
spoken
to
the
council
in
the
last
quarter.
A
A
D
Countywide
planning
policies
regarding
school
sightings
in
the
urban
growth
boundary.
These
amendments
are
now
all
ready
for
adoption
by
the
King
County
Council,
but
from
us
first
be
ratified
by
certain
percentage
of
cities.
So
tonight's
staff
are
going
to
quickly
provide
counsel
with
an
overview
of
these
policy
amendments
in
a
seeking
council
direction
on
whether
or
not
to
approve
these
and
bring
them
back
on
the
consent
agenda
for
the
council
at
a
future
meeting.
So
these
minutes
are
being
recommended
by
the
staff
as
well
as
our
liaison
on
this
committee
counts
them
up.
E
This
body
does
very
good
work
at
a
regional
level
and
periodically
it
does
need
to
come
back
to
the
Bellevue
City
Council
for
ratification.
This
topic,
as
a
city
manager
Miyake
stated,
is
school,
siting
best
practices,
so
there's
a
set
of
ten
best
best
practices
in
your
packet
and,
as
you
noted
mr.
Miyagi
councilmember
Robertson
was
our
city
representative
on
this
effort,
as
it
went
through
the
Planning
Council,
so
at
that
I
did
want
to
allow
council
member
Robertson
to
make
any
comments
before
we
turn
it
over
to
mr.
Matz.
F
So
the
whole
school
siting
on
countywide
planning
policies
came
about
boy
they've
been
pending
for
I,
can't
remember
what
it
said
in
the
packet
four
or
six
years.
What
has
happening
was
school
district,
not
Bellevue's,
because
it's
completely
urban
the
school
districts
which
serve
rural
areas
are
but
you're
on
the
edge
of
the
urban
growth
areas,
we're
often
finding
it
cheaper
to
buy
land,
or
maybe
they
already
own
land
in
the
in
the
outside
the
urban
growth
area
boundary.
So
because
it's
cheaper,
they
were
wanting
to
build
schools
there.
F
But
when
you
build
a
school,
it
has
to
be
on
sewer
under
the
standards,
and
so
we
had
there's
a
policy
against
extending
Stour
to
the
unincorporated
areas
outside
the
UGA
boundaries.
And
so
there
was
a
policy
in
the
past
to
allow
what's
called
tight
lining
of
the
sewers.
But
then
there's
people
out
there
who
then
want
to
hook
up
to
the
sewer
and
it
tends
to
spur
more
growth.
F
That,
and
so
this
policy
came
about
as
a
way
as
a
middle
ground
solution
to
make
sure
that
we
can
plan
for
schools
in
the
urban
areas
inside
the
UGA
lines
and
they're
working
with
the
local
permitting
jurisdictions
to
make
sure
that
we
can
do
that
and
do
it
in
a
way,
that's
efficient,
so
that
the
areas
outside
the
ug8
boundaries
wouldn't
be
as
appealing
and
wouldn't
drive
the
growth
outside
the
UGA
lines.
So
that's
the
context
on
this.
It
has
been
pending
for
a
long
time.
F
There
was
a
workgroup
and
it
did
pass
with
bellevue
support
at
the
growth
management
planning,
council
and
so
I.
Let
Nick
Nicholas
handle
any
questions,
but
I
would
support
either
approving
it
or
just
not
denying
it
and
allowing
it
to
take
effect
at
the
county
level,
because
we
either
need
to
specifically
approve
it
or
just
do
nothing
in
which
case
it
takes
effect
Thanks.
F
G
Mayor
members
of
the
council,
my
job
was
just
done
for
me.
Thank
you,
ma'am.
Thank
you.
That's
exactly
what
we're
talking
about
here,
a
continuation
of
long-standing
policy
work
at
the
regional
level
and
having
some
success
in
regards
to
relationships
between
school
districts
and
growing
communities
and
trying
to
figure
out
a
way
through
this
and
I.
Think
the
work
that
councilman,
Robertson
done
and
the
gfp
sea
is
done
is
walking
us
more
more
and
more
towards
a
truly
collaborative
effort.
G
These
10
best
practices
are
adding
to
existing
policy
work
that
gives
that
guidance
out
to
there
as
we
lay
it
out
for
you
an
attachment
B.
We
are
already
doing
a
lot
of
that
and
I'm
grateful
at
the
school
building
school
district
here
tonight,
because
we
do
have
a
very
good
relationship
with
them
from
a
planning
standpoint,
as
well
as
a
regulatory
standpoint,
and
so
certainly
encourage
you
to
provide
us
the
direction
that
you
see
fit
for
the
Radford
effort.
F
From
the
direction
did
did
is
staff
recommending
that,
if
councils
comfortable,
that
we
actually
make
a
motion
to
approve
it
or
direct
that
to
be
brought
back
on
our
next
consent?
Second,.
F
C
I
D
And
councilmembers,
just
by
way
of
background,
the
beby
school
district
has
police,
does
675
million
dollar
capital
bond
measure
on
the
February
11th
election
ballot
to
do
a
number
of
things,
including
one
to
rebuild
three
aging
schools
to
to
fund
safety
and
security
improvements,
three
to
purchase
property
for
future
school
locations?
This
bond
measure
replaces
one
that
was
placed
in
back
in
2014.
D
Tonight's
presentation
is
informational
only
and
no
formal
action
is
being
requested
by
the
council
this
evening.
The
purpose
is
really
to
learn
more
about
the
measure
as
well
as
ask
questions.
If
you
have
any
weather
part
of
the
measure
itself
joining
us
this
evening
is
dr.
Ivan
Duran,
the
Bellevue
school
superintendent,
as
well
as
Melissa
Davina,
the
Deputy
School
Superintendent
I,
know
in
that
you've
also
brought
another
guest
and
I'll.
D
J
Good
thank
you
good
evening,
mayor
Robinson
city,
council
and
city
manager.
Miyake,
it's
a
pleasure
to
be
here
tonight.
I
am
here
with
our
deputy
of
operations
and
finance
melissa
divita.
We
also
have
Michael
Mei,
who
was
our
communications
director
with
us?
Thank
you
and
Michael
Chen,
who
is
one
of
our
parents
in
our
community
and
organizing
a
lot
of
work
for
us
with
this
bond
I'm
gonna.
J
Thank
you.
So
we
are
in
the
second
year
of
a
strategic
plan
that
we
launched
and
we
have
really
been
doing
a
lot
of
work
to
ensure
that
we
are
meeting
the
needs
of
all
of
our
students
here
within
the
Bellevue
school
district.
We
have
a
new
vision,
mission
and
set
of
values,
and
the
mission
is
really
designed
to
be
an
aspirational
mission
mission.
J
So
these
six
set
of
values
were
done
in
collaboration
with
our
school
board
and
our
community.
We
gather
a
lot
of
different
information.
We
were
creating
this
strategic
plan.
We
had
over
4,000
members
of
the
community,
give
us
feedback
and
information
on
what
we
can
use
to
drive
our
plan
that
we
were
going
to
create.
But
these
values
are
really
the
basis
of
a
lot
of
the
work
that
we
are
doing.
We
launched
a
values-based
leadership
program
for
all
the
leaders
in
our
school
district.
J
We
were
able
to
get
all
of
our
central
office
leaders
and
school
leaders
through
a
three-day
training
program
to
really
help
them
understand
what
their.
Why
is
on
what
they
do
in
a
day
to
day
basis
and
then
use
these
values
to
really
ensure
that
they
are
leading
from
a
really
central
place?
That
is
clear
about
what
they're
trying
to
accomplish
with
their
own
vision,
and
we
also
have
a
set
a
priorities.
We
have
six
priorities
that
we
incorporated
into
our
strategic
plan.
J
These
are
very
important
for
us
to
ensure
that
we
are
not
only
paint
into
academics
around
high
quality
instruction
with
our
students,
but
there
was
also
a
really
strong
need
for
us
to
ensure
that
we
are
meeting
the
social-emotional
needs
of
our
students.
Also,
so
we're
doing
a
lot
of
investment
turn
sure
that
our
students
have
all
their
needs
met.
J
The
cultural
part
is
huge
where
folks
in
our
on
our
staff,
because
we
know
our
staff
are
just
central
to
the
work
that
we
do
every
day
and
then
incorporating
our
family
community
as
much
as
possible,
and
then
we
also
have
one
around
organizational
alignment
because,
as
with
any
organization,
there's
always
opportunities
to
improve
our
systems
really
focus
on
continuous
improvement.
As
for
that,
what
we
do
on
a
day
to
day
basis
is
in
its
best
service
of
our
students,
and
so
that's
just
really
brief
update
on
the
district.
J
We're
excited
about
the
work
that
we're
doing.
We
maintain
our
high
graduation
rate
on
this
last
year
was
about
a
93
percent
graduation
rate.
You
know
we
still
lead
this
state.
You
know
on
state
exams
and
doing
wonderful
work
on
the
academics,
but
we
also
know
that
we
have
to
also
find
that
balance
ensure
that
we're
meeting
the
needs
of
our
students
in
all
the
ways
that
they
come
to
us,
ensure
that
we're
helping
to
be
prepared
for
every
day.
J
K
Study
cost
analysis
on
it
and
they
decided
that
and
when
looking
at
it,
they
figured
out
that
it
would
only
cost
about
a
half
a
million
dollars
more
to
knock
down
the
structure
and
rebuild
it
than
it
would
to
make
all
the
changes
they
would
need
to
make
to
get
it
up
to
code
and
at
that
point
was
when
the
board
decided
to
start
moving
forward
with
a
rebuilding
program.
So
this
is
a
fourth
phase
of
that
ongoing
construction
program
that
started
back
in
the
early
2000s
in
the
early
2000s.
K
We
were
really
focused
on
making
sure
kids
stayed
warm,
making
sure
that
they
were
safe
in
their
environment
and
making
sure
that
they
were
dry.
The
world
has
changed
pretty
darn
significantly
since
then,
and
now
we
really
focus
on
many
other
things.
We're
focusing
on
a
student
safety
at
a
much
broader
level
because
of
all
the
school
violence
and
other
things
that
have
happened.
Our
world
has
changed
capacity
back
in
the
early
2000s.
We
hadn't
been
growing
for
over
20
years
as
a
district.
K
In
the
last
since
about
2014,
we
started
growing
and
we've
been
growing
the
last
six
years,
the
majority
of
it
coming
after
2016,
and
we
anticipate
that
to
continue
to
happen
as
the
community
continues
to
change.
Also,
the
focus
of
the
instruction
has
changed,
who
would
have
thought
in
the
early
2000s
that
we
would
have
kids
participating
in
worldwide
robotics
competitions
and
building
out
these
robots
and
and
needing
spaces?
To
do
all
of
that?
K
And
frankly,
our
positive
learning
environments,
we've
realized,
have
a
big
impact
on
students
and
how
they
feel
when
they
walk
into
school
in
their
achievement.
So
the
world
has
changed,
and
this
is
kind
of
where
the
focus
is
now
it's
a
much
broader
focus.
So
back
in
the
spring
of
2018,
we
put
together
a
growth
and
planning
advisory
group.
It
had
parents
on
it.
K
It
had
community
members,
it
had
representative
from
the
planning
department
at
the
city
on
it
and
it
had
some
of
our
administrators
on
it,
and
that
group
was
asked
to
look
at
all
of
our
facilities
and
our
programs
and
to
assess
how
well
our
facilities
meeting
our
program
needs
and
what
would
be
their
recommendations
moving
forward.
Their
recommendations
came
to
the
board
and
they
fell
into
different
categories.
Some
of
them
were
program
adjustments.
Do
we
have
our
programs
in
the
right
locations?
K
Some
of
them
were
investing
our
capital
and
Thecla,
which
is
funding
that
we
already
received
from
our
community
and
how
we
should
better
spend
that
to
meet
the
needs
of
our
students
and
then
the
third
area
was
really
around
this
bond
proposal.
So
they
came
with
different
recommendations,
not
all
of
them
requiring
us
to
go
to
our
boaters
and
ask
for
greater
funds.
K
The
bond
proposal
was
presented
to
the
board
in
the
committee's
results
were
presented
to
the
board
in
October,
and
then
this
bond
proposal
was
presented
to
the
board
in
November,
where
they
decided
to
go
forward
with
this
February
election.
So
we
have
three
schools
that
we
are
looking
at:
rebuilding
big
picture:
school
International
School
in
jing-mei
school,
big
picture
schools
over
60
years
old.
It
does
not
have
the
facilities
necessary
for
that
program.
For
example,
they
have
no
gym.
They
use
an
old
classroom
as
they're
changing
facility
for
PE,
which
happens
outside
all
year
round.
K
They
also
have
external
walkways,
which
is
something
that
we
are
trying
to
get
away
from
from
a
safety
and
security
perspective,
and
then
it
really
is
a
growing
program
and
need
some
additional
space
for
that
program.
International
school,
I'm
sure
you're
familiar
with
that
is
a
building
also
that
we
haven't
really
done
anything
major
in
a
number
of
years.
It
is
a
brick
building
and
while
we've
brought
it
up
to
seismic
code
as
much
as
we
can,
it
is
not
up
to
the
current
seismic
code
and
needs
to
be
looked
at
there.
K
It
also
has
one
of
those
entrances
where
you
walk
in,
and
you
are
out
in
the
middle
of
the
student
population,
so
it
really
just
is
wide
open
to
anybody
who
wants
to
visit
that
school
and
then
the
last
school
that
we're
looking
at
rebuilding
is
jing-mei
Elementary.
This
is
our
last
elementary
school
that
needs
rebuilding.
It
is
that
old,
outdoor,
hallway
pod
structure
and
so
really
from
the
safety
and
security
perspective.
We
like
our
campuses
to
be
enclosed.
K
K
You've
already
taken
care
of
them,
but,
as
I
said
earlier,
we
were
not
growing
then,
and
in
fact
it
takes
somewhere
around
two
years
to
really
get
through
the
design
and
permitting
process,
and
so
back
in
those
early
2000s
we've
been
flat
in
enrollment
for
pretty
much
close
to
thirty
years
since
then,
about
five
years
after
these
schools
were
completed
five
to
seven
years
after
they
were
completed.
That's
when
we
started
seeing
enrollment
growth,
and
so
today
Newport
high
school.
K
If
you
have
an
opportunity
to
go
there
during
the
day,
you'll
see
kids
having
lunch
sitting
on
the
floors
and
in
the
hallways
and
the
hallways
are
packed,
and
we
have
eleven
portables,
for
example,
at
inner
lake
high
school,
and
they
call
it
the
portable
village.
So
it's
so
there's
definitely
a
capacity
need
at
those
schools
in
those
schools
Interlake
in
particular,
we
anticipate
continuing
to
be
impacted.
K
So
you
all
know
what
is
going
on
with
that
whole
bel
red
corridor,
with
the
light
rail
coming
in
there,
how
that
is
going
from
light
industrial
now
to
much
more
residential
and
because
it
was
light
industrial.
Previously,
we
didn't
have
schools
located
to
support
that
area.
I
mean
we
supported
anybody
who
lived
there,
but
it
just
wasn't
the
quantity
where
you
would
have
a
school
located
in
that
neighborhood
now,
as
it
becomes
more
residential
schools
like
inter
Lake,
High,
School
Highland
middle
school,
which
is
currently
under
construction.
K
But
if
you
go
by
there,
you
see
how
much
bigger
it
is.
They're
gonna
have
to
support
students
that
move
into
that
area,
and
so
that's
another
reason
to
make
sure
that
we
get
interleague
taken
care
of,
and
that's
also,
the
reason
why
there
is
property
to
purchase
a
property
on
this
bond
because,
as
we
transition
the
use
of
different
areas
of
our
city,
like
the
will
Burton
area,
for
example,
the
bell
red
corridor.
We
need
to
make
sure
that
we
can
have.
Schools
can
located
for
those
families.
K
We
are
also
doing
quite
a
bit
of
work
around
the
stem
efforts,
so
stem
being
science,
technology,
engineering
and
math
and,
as
I
said
earlier,
who
would
have
thought
we'd
have
students
participating
in
global
robotics
competitions
or
rocketry
competitions
and
none
of
our
high
schools
right
now,
with
the
exception
of
Sammamish,
because
it's
so
much
newer
have
space
really
for
kids
to
work
on
these.
So
you
have
the
students
at
Newport,
high
school,
coming
over
to
our
offices,
the
ESC
over
on
Main
Street
and
first
they're
working
in
the
garage
on
their
robotics
programs.
K
We
have
kids
from
international
school
actually
going
to
location
and
redman,
which
you
know
is
an
equity
issue.
It
requires
kids
to
find
transportation
after
school
to
get
to
those
programs
and
to
really
participate,
and
so
we
want
to
add
those
types
of
spaces
to
our
schools,
so
that
kids,
all
kids,
can
participate
in
those
types
of
accurate
extracurricular
activities.
K
We
are
also
hardening
our
school
entrances.
We
have
been
building
as
I
said
schools
for
about
20
years.
Our
schools
do
not
have
the
security
vestibules
where
you
go
in
after
the
bell
has
rung
and
it
forces
you
to
go
through
the
office
and
to
check
in
and
register
before
you
enter
the
main
part
of
the
building.
We
also
don't
have
bollards
or
those
safety
posts
in
front
of
many
of
our
schools
19
school
entrances.
K
Our
education
service
centers,
which
are
located
over
across
the
405
freeway
from
here,
also
need
to
be
updated.
Those
buildings
are
almost
35
years
old.
The
envelope
on
those
is
failing.
So,
even
though
they
look
like
nice
shiny
black
buildings,
they
are
wood,
structure
underneath
and
are
starting
to
leak
and
those
types
of
things
and
again
we
did
a
cost-benefit
analysis
on
those.
K
You
know
the
last
thing
I
want
to
mention
and
I
know
that
you
are
all
fully
aware
of
this,
but
in
the
next
15
years,
I've
seen
the
numbers
that
they
expect
16,000
new
housing
units
to
be
built,
and
while
many
of
those
will
be
multi-family
housing
units-
and
we
do
get
the
majority
of
our
kids
from
single-family
homes
that
sheer
quantity
will
result
in
enrollment
growth.
So
even
if
you're
getting
you
know,
one
child
per
ten
units
you're
still
talking
1600
additional
students,
and
so
that
is
part
of
the
reason.
K
K
We
have
been
buying
bonds
for
the
past
20
years
and
so
the
maturity
of
a
bond,
the
maximum
maturity
of
a
bond
is
20
years,
and
so
we
are
constantly
paying
off
principal
and
interest
on
those
outstanding
bonds.
When
we
go
to
the
community-
and
we
ask
them
to
approve
bonds,
we're
really
asking
them
for
a
credit
limit.
Can
we
borrow
six
hundred
and
seventy
five
million
dollars
for
these
projects?
K
We
don't
go
the
next
day
and
sell
all
those
bonds,
so
they
don't
immediately
see
a
huge
tax
increase
for
us
to
pay
all
that
we
will
sell
them
over
a
six
to
seven
year
time
frame
and
then
use
those
funds
as
we
move
forward
and
at
the
same
time
we
will
continue
to
pay
off
the
outstanding
bonds,
and
so
we
bundle
them
so
that
we
can
maintain
a
flat
tax
rate.
The
state
does
not
fund
construction
projects.
There
is
some
money
set
aside
by
the
state
for
school
construction.
K
It
is,
it
is
given
to
district
on
a
grant
process,
and
it
generally
goes
to
the
neediest
districts
in
the
state
and
there's
279
districts
in
the
state.
So
it's
just
not
a
lot
of
funds
available
for
that,
so
we're
looking
at
the
total
cost
to
be
three
cents
per
1000
on
an
850
thousand
dollar
home.
That
impact
would
be
about
$26
a
year
two
hundred
and
thirteen
dollars
a
month.
K
L
L
M
M
A
I
A
C
I
K
Yes,
so
our
current,
the
current
local
school
district
taxes
at
up
to
two
dollars
and
forty
three
cents
per
1000,
so
that
is
currently
what
your
local
school
district
taxes
are.
The
total
tax
rate
for
homes
in
Bellevue
is
8.20
one
cents
per
1000,
and
that
is
really
made
up
of
state
school
taxes,
local
school
taxes,
City
County
and
number
of
different
taxes.
K
N
It's
facing,
but
that's
time
and
I,
think
it's
important
to
note
the
growth
and
so
on
so
on
so
without
of
course,
you
know,
following
the
legal
counsels
advice
addressing
you
know
my
opinion
on
this,
ask
you
a
question
so
I
wanna
compliment
you
what
you're
doing.
Thank
you
very
much
submitted
in
the
talk
to
during
you
mentioned
this,
the
fourth
phase
of
the
capital
development
plan
right.
So
it's
fourth
phase.
So
it's
an
ongoing
thing.
Really,
we've
been
collecting
money.
We've
been
getting
money
to
do
all
the
wonderful
things
you've
done.
N
B
N
K
This
this
is
the
these
are
the
last
schools
that
we
would
be
rebuilding
are
the
three
schools.
The
two
high
schools
that
were
expanding
were
originally
in
phase
one.
We
did
not
anticipate
having
to
do
those
as
I
said
earlier.
We
didn't
anticipate
back
then
having
to
go
back
and
visit.
Those
my
expectation
is
we'd
have
at
least
one
more
because
we
buy
property.
Now,
anticipating
additional
enrollment
coming
into
the
district,
then
we're
gonna
have
to
put
buildings
on
those
pieces
of
property
as
needed
for
those
students.
K
So
my
anticipation
would
be
that
there
would
be
at
least
one
more,
but
then
anything
else
really
moving
forward
would
be
about
ongoing
growth
and
changes
in
our
community,
and
we
just
need
to
always
be
looking
ahead,
as
you
do
to
make
sure
that
we
have
the
facilities
and
things
that
we
need
to
satisfy.
The
educational
mission
for
the
students
in
the
district.
N
Fourth
face
early:
it
wasn't
a
plan
that
is
gonna,
do
how
many
faces,
but
it's
an
ongoing
process
of
seeing
what
the
need
of
the
school
district
is
yeah,
and
in
this
case
you
have
need
for
it.
So
you
come
for
another
bond
issue
to
do
whatever
you
need
to
do
so,
whatever
go
sign,
the
future
depends
on
what
it's
going
to
be
like
in
the
future,
but.
N
H
H
O
K
K
We
have
such
bigger
needs,
so
we
stepped
back
and
did
a
needs
assessment
we
held
on
to
that
10
million,
it's
waiting
for
them,
so
this
is
going
to
add
to
those
funds
for
them,
but
some
of
the
areas
that
they
need
is
an
expansion
of
all
their
CTE
programs
from
computer
science
and
other
things.
The
same
is
true
at
inner
Lake,
High
School.
So
all
of
our
different
high
schools
do
have
different
vocational
programs
and
both
of
those
schools
have
an
expansion
of
their
CTE
programs.
As
part
of
this.
F
So
I
hope
that
your
forecasters
are
looking
at
that
closely
because
the
16,000
units,
even
if
there
are
a
lot
of
them,
are
multi-family
there
definitely
will
be
families
and
school
children
generated
out
of
those
in
the
years
ahead.
So
I'm
I
have
the
designation
of
being
the
only
councilmember
with
kids
in
Babi
schools
right
now,
Jared.
Oh,
you
have
one.
Next
year
next
year,
seven
years
I've
had
kids
continuously
involving
schools.
So
I'm
gonna
try
to
keep
this
pretty
short,
but
the
one
I
remember
when
Newport
high
school
has
grown
so
much.
F
K
One
of
the
reasons
they'll
take
Somerset
first,
so
one
of
the
reasons
why
we
are
moving
cuesta
del
Sol
from
its
current
location
at
the
south
end
to
a
more
central
location
when
we
do
the
rebuild
of
that
is
to
free
a
potential
elementary
space
at
this
out,
then,
because
east
gate,
Somerset,
Newport
Heights
are
all
getting
fuller
and
so,
but
we
don't
really
have
any
elementary
space
right
now
at
the
south
end.
So
that's
part
of
that
effort
is
to
to
work
through
that.
K
F
K
F
Well,
I
really
appreciate
all
thing
that
the
school
district
has
been
doing
to
help
our
kids,
particularly
with
regard
to
the
college
in
the
high
school
and
things
like
that.
That
really
saves
a
lot
of
parents
money
when
the
kids
get
to
college.
I
have
a
kid
that
graduated
Newport
graduated
college
in
three
years
because
of
all
the
AP
classes.
My
next
high
school
seniors
got
a
ton
of
that
credit
from
College
in
the
high
school
and
ap.
C
C
You
thanks
for
the
great
presentation
and
dr.
Arnn,
thank
you
again
for
speaking
at
the
Bellevue
Essentials
graduation.
That
was
really
great
to
hear
your
inspiring
words
there.
Just
a
couple
of
quick
question
on
this:
first
about
the
purchasing
of
land.
What's
your
process
for
that,
are
you
looking
for
specific
areas
in
the
city,
or
is
it
really
just
where
it
becomes
available?
It
just
I'm
just
curious
what
your
process
is
for
identifying
and
then
purchasing
that
land,
so.
C
K
Our
demographer
interacts
with
all
of
the
different
planning
departments,
as
well
as
interacts
with
the
largest
employers,
just
to
see
kind
of
what
their
job
growth
is
looking
at,
because
it's
fundamentally
believed
that
jobs
bring
families,
and
so
we
want
to
just
make
sure
that
we
continue
to
stay
on
top
of
what
those
forecasts
are
as
well.
We
also
work
with
a
realtor,
so
basically,
between
the
two
of
them,
the
demographer
says:
here's
the
areas
where
you
should
be
looking.
I
have
a
realtor
that
then
goes
and
looks
for
different
sizes
of
land.
K
They
don't
necessarily
have
to
have
schools
on
them
right
now,
but
and
he'll
often
look
to.
Can
we
piece
some
different
pieces
of
property
together
from
multiple
owners
to
create
something
large
enough?
The
other,
so
both
of
those
ways
are
the
way
that
we
go
about
looking
for
it,
but
he
will
solicit
people
knock
on
doors.
Are
you
interested
in
selling
and.
J
B
K
C
And
then
my
other
question
was
just
on
there's.
You
know
probably
a
lot
of
residents
here
in
Bellevue
that
are
feeling
a
bit
of
a
tax
burden
these
days
and
they
might
think.
Well
then,
a
clear
decision
passed.
So
that's
you
know
that's
taken
care
of.
Why
is
this
coming
back
before
us?
I
was
just
wondering
if
you
could
for
those
watching
at
home,
especially
understand
why
I
love
you
like
this
is
still
necessary.
K
Yeah
so
McCleary.
Well,
it
did
have
some
resolutions
for
our
community.
It
didn't
solve
everything,
so
McCleary
never
was
meant
to
fund
capital
construction
and
even
before
McCleary
it
didn't
really
fund
construction.
Mccleary
basically
took
some
of
our
local
levy
reduced.
How
much
that
we
can
collect
locally
and
then
increased
the
state
levy,
and
in
doing
so
there
were
more
taxes
that
left
our
area
versus
coming
back
into
our
area
and
supportive
schools,
but
McCleary
also
did
not
fully
fund
the
educational
model
that
that
will
provide
the
choice
of
our
community,
nor
that
is
required.
K
For
example,
special
education
is
not
fully
funded.
We
fund
a
lot
of
different
programs
like
music
art,
our
7
period
day
tutorial.
All
of
those
things
we
fund
with
those
local
levy
dollars,
and
so,
while
we
can't
collect
as
much
as
we
used
to,
we
still
collect
funds
in
order
to
be
able
to
do
those
things.
So
McCleary
was
helpful
for
some
districts,
not
as
helpful
for
other
districts,
we're
one
of
those
districts
that
it
was
not
as
helpful
for
in
comparison
to
some
of
the
smaller
world
districts
and
those
types
of
things.
B
A
K
A
Okay,
thank
you.
So
everybody's
had
a
chance
to
speak
and
in
the
past
we
have
taken
a
position
as
a
council,
an
official
position
on
a
ballot
measure
like
we
did
with
the
King
County
EMS
levy
and
the
King
County
parks
levy
last
year,
and
so
we
can
decide
if
we
want
to
take
a
council,
a
collective
position
on
this
bond
measure
and
if
we
do
that,
it's
already
been
explained
by
Joyce
the
process
that
we'll
have
to
go
through.
A
So
if
we,
if
we
do
decide
to
take
a
position,
we'll
add
it
to
next
week's
agenda
under
ordinances
and
resolutions.
Emotions.
So
if
we
would
like
to
make
a
motion
decide
whether
it
would
you
I
would.
H
A
F
Betcha,
though,
I'm
not
opposed
to
I'm
supportive
of
the
motion,
but
I,
we
are
very
careful
about
how
often
we
take
positions.
Have
we
usually
done
it
for
the
school
district
I
think
we
have
what's
our
history
on
this
choice,.
L
A
N
Am
speaking
of
bit
on
what
councilman
Robertson
mentioned?
Yes,
sometimes
when
you
have
interference
from
other
jurisdictions
that
might
create
some
situation
that
can
backfire
on
you.
So
we
have
asked
you
if
you
wanted
us
to
you
know
we
have
sing
a
lot
politically.
You
know
somebody
getting
there
and
it's
not
the
business
and
it
could
backfire
and
we
all
obviously
represent
the
City
of
Bellevue
mister
represent
said
that
you
liked
us
so
I
think
we
are
individually
our
opinion.
A
H
I
would
like
to
speak
in
support,
I
mean
that's
a
good
question.
I
think
I
noticed
that
a
lot
of
times
the
council
is
very
excited
to
talk
about
what
a
great
school
system
we
have
and
how
important
it
is,
and
we
take
a
lot
of
credit
as
if
you
know
on
that
and
it's
that's.
That's
good
I
think
this
is
I'm
trying
to
remember
back
when
we
first
year
date
that
went
to
the
bond
the
big.
The
big
push
like
you
said
about
what
2005
somewhere
in
there.
K
H
And
that
came
about
because
there
was
the
business
community
basically
said:
wait
a
minute.
We
have
these
cruddy
buildings.
Why
can't
we
do
better
buildings?
Everybody
else
is
doing
that
kind
of
you
know
and
we
need
to
advance
education.
Involve
you
I
think
the
community
itself
is
is
very
positive
about
the
schools
and
the
other
thing
we
get
asked
a
lot
is
about
council
members
or
the
city.
Why
aren't
you?
What
are
you
doing
with
the
city?
There's
a
consumption
that
we
work
together?
H
The
fact
the
matter
is
we
don't
exactly,
and
this
is
an
opportunity
at
a
time
where
we
can
do
that
and
I
think
it's
very
positive
I'm
not
by
concerned
about
that.
In
fact,
I
think
the
community
will
like
that
that
we
support
and
work
together
with
the
schools,
because
one
of
the
things
we
always
talk
about,
why
Bellevue's
a
great
place
isn't
because
it's
great
school
system-
and
this
is
an
opportunity
to
help
make
it
continue
to
be
that-
thank
you
so.
A
H
A
A
D
Thank
you
a
mayor
and
councilmembers.
This
is
something
that
we
do
every
year
up
in
front
of
the
legislature
this
evening,
for
the
sake
of
efficiency,
I'm,
going
to
just
turn
over
to
Joyce
Nichols,
our
intergovernmental
affairs
director
to
review
the
agenda
with
you,
and
we,
in
terms
of
we
are
looking
for
some
direction
on
the
part
of
counsel
to
bring
this
back
at
a
future
meeting
to
adopt
whatever
agenda
that
you
end
up
arriving
at
this
evening.
So
Joyce,
yes,.
L
As
mr.
Miyagi
said,
this
is
one
of
two
documents
that
council
approves
or
reviews
and
approves
every
year.
The
first
is
what
you
have
before
you
tonight:
it's
a
short
list
of
the
city's
priorities.
This
is
this
is
the
list
of
the
key
things
that
we
want
to
accomplish
during
this
next
legislative
session
and
the
second
one
is
a
longer
policy
document.
That
is
a
compendium
if
you
will,
of
all
the
council
positions
over
the
last
20
years
or
so
on
a
whole
variety
of
legislative
issues.
Many
will
not
come
up
in
this
next
session.
L
Since
you
last
took
up
that
issue,
we
bring
those
pieces
of
legislation
to
you
in
sessions
so
that
you
can
review
them
and
decide
what
position
you
would
like
to
take.
If
any-
and
this
is
a
session
that
is
a
short
session,
it's
only
60
days,
long
and
I
make
that
sound,
like
that's
a
really
short
period
of
time,
but
compared
to
the
hundred
and
five
day
session.
L
They
move
right
along
and
tonight
we
have
in
front
of
you
this
short
list
and
we
did
a
little
bit
of
change
a
little
bit
change
up
this
year.
Normally
we
have
a
two
page
listing
of
our
council
priorities,
and
so
we
thought
well
wait
a
minute.
You
have
a
couple
of
priorities
on
the
capital
section
that
are
under
discussion
by
council.
There
are
two
very
very
critical
projects
for
the
city's
future
and
they
present
really
really
good
place.
Making
opportunities
for
city
council
to
talk
about
you've
already
discussed.
L
Those
one
is
the
grand
connection
and
the
other
is
the
potential
for
a
regional,
Aquatic,
Center
or
facility
we
wanted
to
instead
of
including
those
on
legislative
agenda,
because
we
don't
have
an
actual
dollar
amount
that
we're
seeking.
We
wanted
to
find
a
way
to
introduce
those
projects
to
legislators
in
our
conversations
with
them
and
when
you're
down
in
Olympia
talking
with
them.
L
So
we
included
a
third
page
that
has
those
projects
on
it
and
a
brief
description
of
each
and
then
the
fourth
page
in
the
spread
is
the
investing
Abell
view,
information
which
I
think
most
of
you
are
familiar
with
and
that
lists
the
amount
of
tax
revenue
that
the
City
of
Bellevue
property
business.
All
of
our
rolled
up
taxes
that
we
send
to
the
state
comes
to
about
a
billion
dollars
in
2019
revenue
to
the
state,
the
purpose
of
including
that
was
to
remind
people
that
Bellevue
when
they're
looking
where
to
invest
state
money.
L
Bellevue
is
a
very
good
investment,
because
we
have
many
many
areas
that
we
return
a
lot
of
that
money
to
the
state.
So
that's
the
way
we
have
formatted
the
legislative
agenda
and
it
is
a
bit
different
than
what
you're
used
to
seeing
again
in
a
short
session.
Typically,
what
the
legislature
does
is
it
tweaks
the
operating
budget,
the
capital
budget
and
the
transportation
budget?
Those
were
adopted
in
2019
and
the
purpose
of
a
short
session
mainly
is
to
tweak
those
everything
gets
kicked
off
in
December
on
this
budget
development
process.
L
When
the
governor
lays
out
his
proposed
budget,
that's
the
starting
point
for
each
of
the
chambers
of
the
legislature
to
begin
adopting
theirs
they'll
hold
public
hearings
on
the
governor's
budget,
and
then
they
will
go
off
and
each
chamber
will
develop
its
own
budget.
Those
will
come
out
probably
mid
to
late
February.
They
will
tweak
those
they
will
somehow
reconcile
the
two
and
adopt
those
before
the
session
ends
on
march
13th.
So
some
of
the
things
that
are
in
our
legislative
agenda
this
year.
Typically,
what
we
do
is
we
the
2019
agenda.
L
L
Right
now,
the
legislature
is
going
to
need
to
find
or
look
for
a
way
to
replace
the
funding
that
has
been
impacted
by
the
passage
Voter
passage
of
initiative,
nine,
seventy
six
and
that's
going
to
that
has
if
it
is
allowed
to
stand,
it
will
rip
a
pretty
big
hole
in
the
state's
transportation
budget,
and
so
we're
looking
for
the
state
to
come
up
with
and
develop
a
significant
revenue
stream.
That
is
sustainable
and
they
will
discuss
that
throughout
the
entire
legislative
session
this
year.
L
You
know
whole
cloth,
but
it
is
likely
that
that
will
certainly
be
discussed
a
lot
and
the
legislature
may
decide
to
take
some
of
those
key
elements
and
find
a
way
to
fund
them,
either
with
the
rainy
day
fund
money
or
without
our
our
legislative
agenda.
Is
it
doesn't
change
a
whole
lot,
but
there
are
some
specific
refinements
that
we
put
into
this
years,
and
we
changed
our
transportation
priorities
just
a
little
bit.
L
One
of
the
things
is
we
need
to
have
the
just
later
continue
to
focus
on
interstate
405,
getting
the
masterplan
projects
funded
so
that
the
whole
corridor
is
ready
in
2024
for
the
bus,
rapid
transit
that
is
planned
by
Sound
Transit.
We
also
have
all
of
the
linkages
that
are
needed
for
light
rail,
the
east
rail
corridor.
L
All
of
those
projects
have
a
big
big
impact
in
Bellevue,
and
so
we
have
funding
requests
for
some
of
those,
our
project
that
we
have
on
State
Route
520,
where
we're
looking
for
a
new
interchange
off
of
520
onto
405
at
124th.
That
is
one
of
the
projects
that,
because
of
the
passage
of
976,
has
been
put
on
hold
by
the
governor
until
wash
dot,
has
an
opportunity
to
look
at
the
construction
funding.
L
That's
a
project
that
received
money
in
the
connecting
Washington
package
in
2015,
and
it
has
done
some
of
the
I
think
we
received
41
million
dollars
to
begin
the
process,
but
we
still
need
construction
funding
for
that.
So
it's
on
hold
for
right
now
and
it's
up
to
the
legislature
to
figure
out
a
way
to
deal
with
all
the
projects
that
are
on
hold
because
of
nine
seventy
six
and
discuss
possibly
the
need
for
a
statewide
transportation
funding
package
in
the
next
session.
L
Another
piece
is
the
we're
looking
for
the
state
to
continue
working
and
actually
do
some
things
around
smart
mobility
and
smart
technologies
for
transportation.
Council
has
an
interest
statement
that
lays
out
your
priorities
about
smart
mobility
and
we're
going
to
be
talking
to
legislature
legislators
about
how
to
get
that
going.
We
need
a
regulatory
framework
for
the
state
because
we
don't
have
one
and
the
change
is
coming
to
autonomous
vehicles
and
the
impacts
of
those.
We
need
a
regulatory
structure
that
keeps
pace
with
the
technological
and
advancements
that
are
out
there.
L
Another
item
council
focused
on
toward
the
end
of
last
year,
was
the
Road
usage
charge
and
the
state
watch
dot
did
a
pilot
project
that
looked
at.
How
do
you
replace
the
gas
tax,
which
is
flat
because
many
people
are
going
to
better
mileage
cars
and
many
are
going
to
electric
vehicles,
so
the
gas
tax,
a
long
term,
is
not
going
to
be
a
sustainable
source
for
all
the
transportation
funding
that's
needed,
and
so
this
pilot
project
was
done.
L
I'm
not
sure
they
will
come
to
an
actual
decision
on
whether
to
move
forward
with
that
replacement
revenue
source
or
keep
with
the
gas
tax
and
keep
looking
and
keep
working
on
alternative
based
upon
this,
let's
see
moving
to
in
the
interest
of
time
and
whether
I'm
gonna
whip
through
the
rest
of
this
really
fast
regarding
homelessness
and
affordable
housing.
Our
legislative
agenda
encourages
the
state
to
give
us
tools.
L
Don't
tell
us
that
every
jurisdiction
has
to
do
the
same
thing,
don't
direct
what
we
do
give
us
tools
that
are
usable
and
sustainable
for
us
to
make
decisions,
and
by
us
I
mean
you,
make
decisions
locally,
that
impact
our
community.
We
don't
want
one
size
fits
all.
We
want
the
ability
to
pick
and
choose,
and
we've
included
some
of
those
options
in
the
legislative
agenda
in
the
homelessness
section,
it's
quite
similar
to
what
we
did
last
session
and
what
we
really
want
to
avoid
is
again
this
one-size-fits-all.
L
We
don't
want
the
state
to
say
this
is
how
you
all
have
to
deal
with
homelessness
issues
and
how
you
have
to
shelter
people
who
do
not
have
shelter.
We
want
the
ability
to
tailor,
make
the
solutions
fit
our
community,
and
tonight
we
are
seeking
feedback
on
the
legislative
agenda.
Are
these
priorities
ones?
You
agree
with?
Are
they
the
right
priorities
and
we
would
like
to
get
from
you
any
suggestions
you
have
and
then
a
head
nod?
If
you
do
make
any
amendments
that
we
could
make
those
changes
and
get
this
approved
great.
A
So
they
don't
actually
have
to
have
a
car
if
they
don't
want
to
so
I
started
with
something
much
more
assertive
and
then
kind
of
watered
it
down
in
hopes
that
it
would
be
something
that
everybody
on
the
council
would
be
comfortable
with
and
I'm
wondering.
Is
there
a
way
to
ask
that
we
could
support
lit
ad
in
there
with
the
affordable
housing
legislation
to
incentivize,
affordable
housing
in
Tod,
affordable
housing
development
in
Tod?
We.
L
We
already
have
other
tools
listed
in
that
affordable
housing
section
and
it's
always
better
to
urge
the
state
again
not
to
tell
us
how
to
do
it,
but
give
us
the
tool
to
do
it
and
the
possible
incentive
to
make
it
more
likely
to
happen
so
adding
that
to
the
affordable
housing
tools
at
the
direction
of
the
rest
of
Council
is
is
up
to
you.
It's.
F
F
So
I
was
looking
at
how
where
you
put
it,
my
just
wonder
so,
if
you
look
at
the
tools
for
affordable
housing,
we
say:
bellevue
supports
legislation
to
provide
funding
tools,
jurisdictions,
could
consider
adopting
to
construct
and
or
preserve,
affordable
housing
units,
with
a
focus
on
broad
array
on
a
broad
array
of
income
levels,
including
low
income
and
workforce
housing.
Would
we
add
it
and
you
know,
and
development
of
affordable
housing
and
transit
oriented
development
nodes,
but
we,
where
would.
L
F
That's
what
I'm,
just
trying
to
figure
out
where
we
go
yep
I,
would
be
supportive
of
adding
it
to
where
director
Nichols
suggested
and
then
and
greater
opportunities
to
act.
Locally.
Yeah
I
think
that
that's
a
good
idea
also
when
it
comes
back
when
we
adopt
our
M
FTE
to
apply
to
any
Multi
multi
family
housing
project
citywide
that
I'm
I
think
will
help
as
well.
So.
A
Of
affordable
housing
on
to2
strongly
encouraged
well
I.
You
know
we
Joyce
and
I
talked
about
it
and
she
thought
that
incentivizing
and
was
a
good
tool
and
I
think
I
think
it
is
as
well
so
I
mean
if
you
want
an
example
of
that
an
example
might
be
a
decrease
in
property
tax
paid
by
the
developer
for
the
similar
to
the
percentage
of
the
amount
of
affordable
housing
units
that
they
put
in
so.
A
B
N
You
I
support
what
you're
saying
I
think
it
is
a
very
important
issue
that
we
need
to
address,
but
you
know
sort
by
including
what
you
said:
I
think
it's
fine
but
I
just
wonder
we
might
never
really
emphasize
what
Joyce
brought
up
to
us.
You
know
we
want
to
emphasize
the
tools
up
to
us,
we're
not
asking
them
to
allow
us
to
do
it.
The
key
is
whatever
we
want
to
do
it's
up
to
us
to
decide.
A
K
N
N
Obviously
that's
the
key,
so
I
think
that
can
be
left
open
but
I
support
by
adding
that
incentive,
because
this
already
got
some
some
ideas,
that's
included,
which
we
already
agree,
but
it
should
not
be
limiting
just
to
that
and
asking
them
for
so
you
can
for
for
permission.
We
don't
need
asking
so
much.
The
key
is
that
give
us
give
us
the
authority
the
right
to
do
whatever
we
want
to
do.
That's
one
point
so
I
don't
think
we
need
to
do
too
much
more
right,
I
think
when
Authority
suggests
I,
like
the
suggestion.
N
N
Now
there
is
a
difference,
affordable,
housing
and
homelessness
to
be
separate
and
I
think
it
stated
that
way
in
the
legislative
agenda,
which
is
good,
okay,
so
I
think
that's
important,
because
each
city
has
its
own
priorities
and
whatever
and
challenges
and
problems,
and
we
need
to
address
it.
Don't
lump
together.
You
got
confused
and
we're
not
going
to
get
the
issues.
N
Resolved,
if
we
don't
know
what
problem
are
we
looking
at
so
I?
Actually
one
thing:
I
recommend
not
to
get
confuses.
I,
don't
know
Joyce,
you
answer
the
question
for
me:
can
we
somehow
separate
it
more?
So
you
know
where
we
are
by
the
I.
Believe
Bob
is
a
lot
more
interested
in
affordable
housing.
That's
the
biggest
challenge
for
value.
Homelessness
is
important,
but
it
should
be
a
you
know.
More
clearly
discussed
separated.
A
A
A
C
A
F
Thank
you
I'm
like
why
supportive
of
it
I
did
talk
to
director
Nichols
about
the
capital
budget,
requests
I
think
it
would
be
helpful
once
we
know
the
numbers
to
put
in
what
our
matches.
If
we
have
significant
matching
I,
think
that
helps
sell
it
just
to
add
it.
If
people
are
comfortable
with
that,
once
we
have
the
numbers,
we'll
have
the
numbers
and
I
think
you
said
that
that
would
be
helpful.
L
When
we're
talking
to
legislators,
that
is
a
very
helpful
thing
to
have
and
the
match
on
the
first
priority,
which
is
the
bridle
trails.
Park,
is
we're
asking
for
a
million
dollars
and
we
are
I,
think
our
match
is
1.65
million
yeah
and
then
on
the
changing
tables
for
adults
in
the
parks
restroom
we're
asking
for
approximately
two
hundred
and
fifty
thousand
dollars
and
within
our
parks
budget.
L
We
have
something
called
the
parks
refurbishment
fund
and
our
match
would
conceivably
come
out
of
that,
so
we're
constantly
making
improvements
to
our
parks
facilities
and
that
fund
exists
for
just
that
same
purpose.
So
when
something
is
needed
in
a
park,
we
have
funding
to
do
it
so
I
can
easily
add
those
numbers
or
that
little
addition.
If
that
would
be
helpful,
if.
F
H
F
Know
I
was
just
about
to
guess:
oh
I
was
just
about
to
talk
about
that.
So
I
was
down
with
you.
As
you
know,
last
year
I
he
at
least
serve
four
times,
and
this
I
brought
this
up
to
every
legislator
and
talked
about
I
knew
we'd,
be
it
over
a
billion
dollars
this
year,
because
last
year,
when
I
was
there,
it
was
930
million
or
something-
and
this
is
the
best
sales
pitch
talks
about
that-
we
give
a
billion
dollars
of
revenue
out
of
Bellevue's
activity
to
the
state
of
Washington
every
year.
F
So
it's
a
good
investment.
So
I
think
that
this
is
a
really
strong
alleged
Genda
I
really
appreciated
having
the
red
line
in
the
packet
materials,
because
it
shows
how
much
we've
accomplished.
I
mean
we
got
some
big
things
because
we
do
keep
it
tight.
We
do
keep
it
focused,
and
you
know
we
do
put
our
own
skin
in
the
game
with
the
matches,
the
four
or
five
master
plan
being
the
absolute
number.
F
One
thing
that
this
council
has
pushed
for
for
what
a
decade
or
more
I
mean
it's
and
we're
getting
it
piece
by
piece
and
they're
expensive
pieces,
but
we're
getting
it
and
keeping
the
local
control
is
really
important.
So
my
question
on
this
is
whether
we
I
know
that
we
I've
been
talking
with
some
of
our
big
employers
and
the
chamber,
and
that
you've
been
talking
with
our
some
other
big
employers
in
the
chamber
to
the
extent
that
their
legislative
agendas
overlap
with
ours.
F
L
Are
days
there
is
the
chamber
day,
they
have
a
Lobby
day
down
in
Olympia,
and
we
could
certainly
make
sure
that
on
that
day
and
I
think
it
coincides
this
year
with
the
AWC
legislative
conference.
That
is
the
last
it's
the
Tuesday
Wednesday
last
week
of
January
so
and
I
pretty
sure
the
chamber
said
it
today
was
one
of
those
dates,
and
so
we
would
be
down
there
any.
L
How
many
council
members
typically
go
down
for
that
Lobby
day,
and
we
could
try
to
put
something
together
around
that,
and
there
are
other
days
that
happen
and
those
are
probably
the
easiest
to
right
to
piggyback
on,
rather
than
setting
up
something,
that's
really
big.
That
requires
an
awful
lot
of
you
know
juice
to
try
to
put
together
building
off.
What's
there
so
we'll
get
a
list
of
who's
going
when
we
will
make
that
available
and
we'll
try
to
pull
together
some
nice
stakeholder
groups
to
to
engage
on
those
great.
F
Think
if
we
have
that
coordination,
whether
we
go
together
or
not,
that
would
be
okay,
I'm
really
effective
in
a
short
legislative
session.
If
they
have
six
major
players
asking
for
the
same
thing,
it's
a
lot
more
powerful.
Yes,
so,
and
if
we
know
each
other
is
doing
that,
so
I
would
encourage
us
to
do
that
so
anyway,
other
than
that
I'm
happy
to
I
know
what
there's
more
people
to
talk,
but
I'm
very
happy
to
support
the
legislative
agenda
with
the
two
minor
tweaks.
Okay,.
I
The
one
about
incentives
and
progress
on
smart
mobility,
my
question
is
the
way
that
that's
worded.
Does
that
always
does
that
also
include
funding
for
pilots
of
shared
mobility
options,
because
I
know
that
we've
got
mike
has
the
invites,
and
so
the
ability
to
have
some
funding
just
pilot,
for
example,
so
you
buy
sports
or
low
income
communities.
You
also
leverage
that
so
I'm,
just
looking
at
the
wording,
whether
incentive,
probably
bad
or
not,
I
I.
L
Believe
it
does,
because
that's
one
of
the
talking
points
that
we
would
include
when
we're
discussing
this
is-
and
one
of
the
major
ways
you
can
help
out,
is
to
provide
funding
for
some
of
these
transit
mobility
options
that
are
on
the
table
now
being
discussed
by
the
city
by
Metro
and
by
some
of
the
major
employers.
Do
you
think.
L
L
That
position
has
been
on
councils
agenda
legislative
agenda
for
several
years
and
the
initial
intent
was
not
to
have
it
be
just
revenue
neutral,
because
we
know
that
that
probably
is
not
likely
to
happen.
So
you
want
to
be
able
to
say
that
the
major
thing
that
we
want
to
avoid
is
those
spikes
for
ratepayers.
You
don't
want
to
have
you
know
an
increase
of
20
percent
one
year
flat,
the
next
another
20
percent
the
next
year.
L
You
want
rates
to
stay
as
flat
as
possible
for
as
long
as
possible,
and
so
it's
that
we
don't
want
the
upheaval
and
I
would
hesitate
to
say
that
it
means
any
negative
impact
we
would
oppose,
but
we
have
to.
We
have
to
scale.
We
have
to
understand
the
scale
of
the
potential
impact
on
ratepayers,
and
that
was
the
original
intent
of
previous
councils.
That
put
that
in.
If
council
does
want
to
change
that,
then
it's
it's.
Your
choice.
L
Yes,
it's
always
better
to
put
things
in
the
positive.
How
would
that
read?
I
think
the
wording
that
council
members
on
proposed
would
take
it
from
potentially
sounding
negative
to
positive,
which
would
be
the
sentence
would
read,
or
the
clause
would
read
renewable
energy
provided
that
the
transition
minimizes
negative
impacts
to
ratepayers
or
just
minimizes
impact
straight
I.
A
F
Megan
I
wasn't
negative,
minimal,
negative
I.
Think
negatives
should
stay
in,
because
if
it
has
a
positive,
we
want
it
to
be
a
maximum
positive
economic
I
mean
right,
I,
don't
wanna
minimize
that
positive,
but
a
minimal
negative
I'm
comfortable
I'm
comfortable
that.
But
my
my
question
was
more
clarification,
especially
because
we
have
a
few
council
members
who
haven't
been
through
the
legislative
session
a
lot
of
times
when
we
get
bills.
F
We
you
don't
just
take
this
and
start
lobbying
for
the
bills
based
on
a
discussion
we
had
for
five
minutes
and
you
arey
that
year,
if
there's
a
bill
that
has
impacts,
you're
gonna
bring
it
to
us
and
we're
gonna
be
able
to
have
a
greater
discussion
about
it
and
guide
the
lobbying
efforts.
This
is
a
guideline,
but
it
doesn't
mean
we
don't
weigh
in
more
so
I
just
wanted
to
reassure
folks
about
that
in.
L
A
L
A
F
I
H
N
N
N
On
encouraging
autonomous
driverless
vehicle
technology,
but
I
wanted
to
be
a
bit
more
specific
and
stronger
I
think
we
need
to
support
funding
and
crafting
or
funding
and
policies
encouraging
it's
not
the
use
of
smart
mobility
technology
such
as
autonomous
vehicles,
electric
vehicles
and
sheer
mobility
options,
just
as
the
incentives
and
progress
doesn't
get
us
a
very
much
anyway.
Well,
we
are
making
progress,
but
we're
100-year
progress.
N
A
H
L
F
I
I
agree
that
this
is
something
that's
really
important
to
the
future
of
bellevue
as
a
tech
city
and
as
a
leader.
The
thing
that
I
think
is
left
out
here
is
because
there's
funding
and
policies,
but
that
leaves
out
incentives
and
regulatory
framework,
and
those
are
two
additional
underpinnings
of
this,
because
wouldn't
it
be
great
if
the
legislature
creates
a
fund
that
helps
drive
additional
technology
advancements,
but
at
the
same
time
we
want
to
make
sure
that
the
regulatory
environment
is
such
that
they're.
F
Not
you
know
that
it's
safe
that
they're,
not
the
Meuse,
using
data
that
I
mean
there's
a
whole
lot
more
to
this
than
just
funding
and
policies,
so
I
would
be
supportive
of
adding
funding
policies.
As
long
as
we
don't
lose
incentives,
you
know
including
incentives
and
and
progress
and
progress
and
regulatory
framework.
N
L
N
H
L
A
L
A
A
I
A
L
I
A
N
A
N
N
One
is
I
think
this
is
a
great
thing
to
include
and
I
like
the
thing
that's
included,
but
I
think
it's
a
little
bit
too
narrow,
and
this
may
be
missing
a
few
things
and
I
don't
want
to
have
us
just
you
know
narrowly
defining
what
is
the
future
and
we
might
miss
a
few
other
things.
I'd
like
to
have
a
broader
okay.
N
N
You
know
that
may
exclude
other
things
and
also
the
description
description
description
of
it.
You
know
maybe
again
narrowing
to
what
specifically
can
be
potentially
we're
looking
for
as
a
potential
vision.
So
I
would
like
to
use
something
you
I
don't
mind,
including
these
as
examples,
but
I
think
we
need
to
say
something
about
the
overall
place,
making
facilities
that's
important
to
value.
N
You
know
we
just
heard
from
the
power
suit
district
about
all
the
facility
they're
going
to
raise
six
hundred
seventy
five
million
dollars
doing
what
building
facilities
to
accommodate
the
people,
culture,
people
can
do
things,
building,
robotics
learning
experiencing
doing
things
and
they're
willing
to
go
and
raise
six
and
said
five
million
dollars,
and
these
are
the
things
that
we
want
to
build
for
our
people
or
community.
Our
residents
can.
N
A
A
C
You
two
quick
things
on
that
same
point.
Actually,
I
was
just
wondering,
because
these
are
things
that
we
most
likely
last
for
next
you're
right
Joyce.
So
as
this
morning
we
should
be
specific
and
say
potential
2021,
capital,
transportation
and
placemaking
funding
request
just
to
know
that
we
are
coming
back
with
this
next
yarn
artis.
You
know,
I
want
that
them
to
be
thinking
about
it
already,
or
is
that
being
too
well.
L
B
C
B
L
L
A
H
C
Thank
you
so
much
for
your
work
on
this
is
great
and
I.
Thank
you
for
bringing
this
a
little
earlier,
as
well
a
little
earlier
than
in
previous
and
my
creditor
about
a
little
bit
and
I'm
so
glad
that
councilmember
Robertson
and
mayor
Chum
and
I
went
down
and
lobbied
for
the
bonding
and
toy
at
4:05,
because
in
this
climate
right
now
we
would
just
never
get
this
as
pre
discuss
so
I'm
so
glad
we
did
that
earlier
and
not
this
year.
C
Last
comment
that
I
had
was
on
the
ruck
on
on
page
one
last
bullet,
because
I
think
we
we've
had
a
couple
of
presentations
on
that
and
I
think
the
preceding
bullets
about
privacy
concerns
which
I
think
a
lot
of
us
brought
up
and
B
the
regressive
or
potentially
regressive
how
that
can
penalize
low
income
people.
But
the
last
bullet
is
really
speaks
to
the
eighteenth.
C
Amendment,
correct
I
would
love
to
see
if
we
can
make
that
just
a
little
bit
stronger,
because
I
feel
the
rest
of
the
bullets
are
fairly
strong,
and
this
one
is
almost
you
know
please
consider
using
this
revenue
for
transportation
projects
which
really
what
it
should
be
used
for.
I
would
advocate
that
we
just
make
this
a
little
bit
stronger.
C
H
B
B
L
18Th
amendment
speaks
to
the
uses
of
the
gas
tax,
the
few
of
the
more
to
vehicle
fuel
taxes
typically,
and
so
the
debate
is,
if
it,
if
you're,
going
to
a
completely
different
tax,
you're
getting
rid
of
the
gas
tax,
then
what
are
the
uses
of
that
funding?
Which
the
constitution
of
the
state
doesn't
speak
to
right
now,
and
so
the
thought
was
and
again
open
to
any
comments
on
this
to
change
it.
L
So
the
pot
should
grow
was
the
thought
if
you're
going
to
fund
things
that
are
not
funded
now,
because
all
of
the
uses
depend
on
having
good
roads,
you
need
roads
for
buses.
You
need
roads
for
bunch
of
trails
for
bikes.
You
need
all
of
these
infrastructure
pieces
in
order
to
make
it
work
right.
So
if
you
expand
it
without
expanding
the
total
amount
of
dollars,
you
have
created
a
bigger
pinch
than
we
have
right
now.
So
what.
B
F
Yeah,
that's
consistent.
Okay,.
B
F
And
as
we
know,
the
reason
that
this
is
being
considered
is
the
gas
tax
is
not
providing
enough
revenue
for
the
roads
and
bridges
and
everything
that
we
have.
So
we
certainly
want
to
make
sure
that
we
not
just
that
if
we're
placing
it
that
would
truly
replace
it
exactly
and
I'd
like
to
replace
it
and
grow
it,
because
we
really
need
it
absolutely
I'm,
very
comfortable.
That.
A
A
All
right,
okay,
great
all
right
so
I
guess
what
we're
going
to
think
about
doing
is
see
if
there's
a
consensus,
to
include
the
changes
that
we've
recommended
on
the
state
legislative
agenda
and
and
bring
this
back
on
our
consent
calendar.
Is
that
something
that
you
need
us
to
vote
on
a
vote.
L
I
B
F
A
You
comfortable
with
that
choice:
I
am
okay,
we've
had
a
motion,
it's
been
seconded,
all
those
in
favor,
say
aye
aye,
all
those
opposed.
Okay,
terrific
good.
Thank
you.
I
want
to
thank
my
fellow
council
member
through
this
robust
discussion.
I
think
that
was
really
productive
and
really
helpful
and
I
appreciate
the
participation
and
Joyce.
Thank
you.
I
believe
that
that
is
the
end
of
our
agenda.
The
meeting
is
adjourned.
