This
is
an
exciting
time
where
the
variety
of
options
for
renewable
and
efficiency
is
growing.
Every
day
we
can
incorporate
those
options
into
the
updated
ESI
I'm
grateful
that
the
ESI
Plan
Update
is
giving
a
close
look
at
climate
action,
because
we,
as
the
current
and
future
generations
of
the
world,
need
our
leadership
to
step
up
and
do
more
way
more
to
take
away
some
of
the
fears
and
stress
that
climate
change
is
placing
on
our
young
lives
and
initiatives
and
plans
like
these
are
exactly
what
is
needed
to
offer
us
some
relief.
C
We
need
to
believe
again
that
the
adults
will
take
care
of
us
and
we
don't
need
to
be
so
worried
and
scared
for
our
own
lives.
We
need
to
believe
that
you're
fighting
for
our
lives
every
day.
Thank
you
again
for
hearing
my
statement.
I
am
hoping
that
the
updated
ESI
plan
will
include
strong
targets
for
taking
climate
action
and
I
support
the
council
and
setting
leading-edge
targets.
Please
keep
my
generation
in
mind.
Thank
you.
Thank.

Hello,
my
name
is
Samantha
and
I'm
a
sophomore
as
Sammamish
high
school.
My
current
address
is
one
three
seven
to
five
South
East
23rd
Lane
I'm
grateful
for
this
opportunity
to
come
and
talk
to
you
all
at
such
a
crucial
moment
for
our
city.
I
recently
attended
a
Bellevue
Green
Team
kickoff,
where
I
met
with
teams
from
all
over
the
Bellevue
School
District.
At
this
event,
we
learned
that,
if
all
seven
billion
people
consumed
at
the
rate
of
a
typical
American,
we
would
need
five
Earth's
to
sustain
us.
E
We
also
learned
how
drastically
our
seasons
will
be
impacted
by
climate
change.
This
was
something
we
all
felt
this
last
year
with
a
hundred
degrees
summer
and
the
Snowmageddon
in
the
winter,
but
we
also
learned
that
the
city
of
Bellevue
is
taking
strong
steps
to
address
climate
change
with
its
ESI.
The
environmental
stewardship
initiative.
I
appreciate
that
the
city
is
taking
such
a
close
look
at
where
we
are
and
where
we
need
to
go
with
the
ESI
and
I'm
truly
excited
that
we're
in
a
time
where
annual
options
are
sprouting
up
everywhere
and
I.
E
Urge
you
to
continue
to
use
these.
In
the
future
ESI,
but
the
part
that
said
to
me,
the
most
was
the
fact
that
this
plan
benefits
every
Bellevue
resident,
no
matter
where
they
live
or
what
their
socioeconomic
status
is.
This
is
especially
important
in
the
long
run
where
an
impactful
ESI
will
decrease
the
amount
of
harmful
pollutants
in
our
air,
the
cost
of
our
energy
bills,
and
even
the
amount
of
time
we
spend
in
long
frustrating
hours
in
top
of
traffic
I.
E
F
Hello,
everyone
thank
you
for
the
opportunity
to
speak.
My
name
is
Benjamin
Moo,
so
I
live
up
in
Northeast
Bellevue
and
I'm,
a
senior
at
Interlake
high
school
I'm,
president
of
interlakes
Green
Team
and
I'm
also
a
SV
co-president
that
Interlake
I
intern
at
the
u-dub
climate
impacts
group,
because
I
care
about
making
a
positive
difference
when
it
comes
to
tackling
climate
change.
So
first
I'd
like
to
acknowledge
all
the
progress
that
the
city
has
made
in
the
recent
years
on
environmental
issues
and
I.
F
Now,
when
it
comes
to
environmental
policy
and
climate
action,
it's
easy
to
look
from
the
perspective
of
what
we've
done
in
the
past
and
from
that
perspective,
it's
true
that
the
targets
Bellevue
is
considering
setting
could
be
considered
bold.
But
let
me
look
from
the
perspective
of
what
of
what
we
know
needs
to
be
done.
What
the
IPCC
the
Intergovernmental
Panel
on
Climate
Change
is
telling
us
needs
to
be
done.
We
can
see
that
what's
labeled
bold
is
frankly
not
enough
and
what's
labeled
leading-edge
is
really
just
the
bare
necessities.
F
If
we
want
to
avoid
some
of
the
most
catastrophic
impacts
of
climate
change.
For
example,
the
IPCC
suggests
that
greenhouse
gas
emissions
must
decline
45%
by
2030
yeah.
Most
of
the
targets
in
the
ESI
are
only
set
for
2014
2015,
so
in
my
mind,
leading
edge
targets
for
the
City
of
Bellevue
are
really
the
only
viable
option,
especially
when
it
comes
to
electric
vehicle
ownership,
total
emissions
and
renewable
energy.
F
So,
in
short,
we
can't
afford
to
look
at
climate
change
through
the
lens
of
what's
been
done
in
the
past.
We
need
to
look
at
climate
action
from
the
other
side
of
things,
looking
backward
from
2050
and
Beyond
and
seeing
what
needs
to
be
done
now
if
we
still
want
a
livable
future
for
our
kids
or
in
my
case
for
me-
and
let
me
do
this
I
think
it's
clear
to
see
that
we
must
adopt
leading-edge
science-based
targets
to
ensure
this
future.
Thank
you
for
your
time.
Thank.
G
Karen
Morris
my
addresses
on
file
I'm
here
again
with
more
accurate
information
concerning
the
ten
encampment
ordinance
rewrite
a
few
weeks
ago,
city
staff,
provided
you
with
a
comparative
matrix
to
local
jurisdictions,
which
one
of
you
had
requested
during
a
previous
meaning.
I
knew
when
I
saw
it.
It
was
problematic
both
because
of
what
jurisdictions
were
included
and
which
were
not.
The
inclusion
of
a
couple
of
jurisdictions,
Bellevue
has
indicated
they
don't
want
to
emulate,
was
the
first
clue.
Also
the
inclusion
of
one
with
a
pertinent
backstory
that
was
left
out.
G
Sammamish
went
to
one
hundred
and
twenty
days
as
part
of
a
compromise
that
was
supposed
to
include
the
additional
warrant
and
sex
offender
checks.
They
wished
and
wrote
into
their
regulations
that
agreement
was
broken.
The
encampment
got
the
extra
time
but
reneged
on
their
end
of
the
deal.
The
host
did
not
enforce
so
I.
Don't
consider
that
an
example
for
us,
but
rather
a
caution
and
part
of
a
concerning
pattern.
I
have
done
my
own
research,
some
of
it
online
and
some
by
talking
to
personnel
at
those
cities.
G
I
researched,
eleven
area
cities
not
including
bellevue,
and
not
on
the
previous
matrix
I,
am
waiting
to
hear
back
from
one
Tukwila,
and
one
Issaquah
has
no
pertinent
regulations.
I
will
give
you
more
info
on
this
research
later,
but
for
tonight,
I
want
to
comment
on
the
refrain
that
proposed
changes
are
moving
to
a
quote
regional
standard
on
length
of
stay.
One
is
that
sixty
days,
six
are
at
ninety
or
ninety
two
one
at
125,
and
one
at
150.
G
I
have
not
cherry
picked,
but
given
you
all
that
I
found,
even
if
you
consider
the
staff
matrix
added
in
there
are
still
more
at
ninety
two
days
or
below
than
at
higher
levels,
gap
is
a
little
more
complicated
and
I
will
provide
more
on
that
later.
I
found
only
one
city
Redmond,
with
anything
like
the
proposed
extended
permit
and
there's
the
last
three
stays
for
five
years.
Not
four
I
knew
there
were
at
least
two
closed
cities
with
the
additional
warning
sex
offender
checks.
G
Neighbors
have
requested,
but
also
found
at
least
three
others
with
language
implying
further
monitoring.
Additionally,
I
found
other
ideas
that
we
might
want
to
incorporate.
The
final
draft
of
the
ordinance
I
just
saw
includes
quite
a
few
things.
I
disagree
with.
Well,
we
don't
support
the
extended
permit
for
many
reasons.
G
I
want
to
comment
tonight
on
the
idea
that
any
organization
can
get
it
if
they
have
not
had
a
previous
permit,
revocation,
not
the
way
it
was
presented
to
us
before
and
seems
a
kind
of
bait
and
switch
frankly
probably
sounds
reasonable
until
you
consider
that
in
the
14
years,
I
have
followed
this
issue,
I,
don't
know
of
a
single
permit
that
has
ever
been
revoked
in
the
region,
no
matter
how
many
or
how
egregious
the
violations
of
the
permit
conditions.
I
can
give
you
examples
later.
G
H
Zeke
Hale
my
dirty
Nazi
Pig
edema
progressive,
yes
from
Animal,
Farm,
yeah,
a
fascist,
just
harper,
anti-semite
and
killer
my
name
Alex,
a
merman
yeah
I
won't
speak
about
something.
What
is
very
unique
after
this
election
see
Seattle.
It
can
country
right
now,
so
unique,
so
different.
So
ever
State
Washington
right
now,
don't
like
this
two
million
idiot
700,000
in
Seattle.
So
this
come
to
me
situation.
You
know
what
is
mean
they
want
persecute
me.
Seven
year
ago,
said
prosecute
me.
They
won't
prosecute
me
for
speech
here.
H
You
know
if
you
want
doing
this
to
seven
year
ago,
a
prostitute
me
because
a
bring
class
action,
four
hundred
million
dollar
Spanish
me
make
me
felony
five
felony.
You
know
what
is
mean
here.
Nice
people
here
same
happen
with
him.
I
mean
right
now,
with
everybody
hook
up
different
opinion.
We
have
a
fascism
right
now.
What
is
so
idiotic,
so
stupid?
So
don't
have
analogy
in
human
history.
I
give
you
a
couple
example
about
Seattle
progressive
fascism.
Nobody
know
what
is
mean
progressive.
When
I
asked
you
guys
explain
to
me
what
is
mean
progressive.
H
Nobody
know
what
is
being
progressive
number
one
number
two:
this
represents
seven
woman,
it's
unique
situation,
no
one
fascism.
No
one
party
system
established
for
last
three
million
years
or
for
seven
thousand
years
what
is
involve.
Seven
women
in
all

Amir
Turkish,
is
a
pure
criminal
US
prosecutor
are
homosexual.
Give
me
two
trespasses
for
one
year.
What
is
absolute.
H
Speak
I,
don't
have
a
slide
I
talking
about
it's
a
freedom
of
speech
about
what
is
we
have
right?
It
don't
interrupt
me
because
it's
look
exactly
what
as
I
told
you
you
acting
like
a
Nazi
Gestapo,
it's
exactly
what's
happened,
whereas
I
proud
token
is
absolutely
legal
is
legal.
Where
is
the
problem
we'll
cover
Constitution
because
rhythm
of
speech?
We
have
open
public
meeting
act.
We
have
something
like
a
court
decision.
No,
so.

I
J
This
was
last
front
of
Council
in
May
of
2019
and
staff
are
here
this
evening
to
inform
the
council
on
the
progress
of
the
environment,
stewardship
initiative,
plan
update,
and
this
actually
completes
phase
one
a
face
of
three
phases
that
were
in
front
of
the
council
with
respect
to
the
scope
of
the
project.
Tonight,
the
staff
are
seeing
direction
from
counts
on
the
recommended
goals
and
targets
for
the
the
plan.
J
In
addition,
staff
are
also
seeking
some
direction
on
how
to
engage
the
city's
boards
and
commissions
as
part
of
the
next
phase
to
beginning
of
phase
two
joining
us.
This
evening
is
emil
king,
who
is
the
assistant
director
of
community
development
to
his
right,
is
Jennifer
Ewing
our
environmental
stewardship
initiative
program
manager
and
to
right
is
Anna,
McMann
resource
conservation
program
manager.
What
that
I'll
go?
Had
internal
team
meal
for
further
presentation,
sure.
K
I,
thank
you.
City
manager,
Miyake
and
members
of
council,
Jennifer
and
and
Anna
have
been
working
closely
together
with
a
core
team
of
staff
to
develop
a
series
of
recommendations
for
tonight's
presentation,
based
on
best
practices,
work
as
well
as
significant
input
from
the
community.
As
you
know,
Jennifer
is
our
city's
environmental
stewardship
program
manager
and
on
adjoined
the
city
earlier
this
year
is
the
resource
conservation
program
manager.
They've
worked
closely
together
to
implement
the
community-wide,
as
well
as
municipal
operations.
K
Initiatives
in
the
açaÃ
strategic
plan
I've
been
able
to
serve
over
the
past
number
of
months
on
both
the
core
working
teams
so
got
to
work
with
a
lot
of
different
departments
in
the
city
as
well
as
most
recently
on
the
staff
oversight
team.
That's
been
guiding
this
initiative
so
with
that
I'm
gonna
hand
it
over
to
Jennifer.
L
Okay,
thank
you,
Thank
You,
mr.
miyagi,
deputy
mayor
robinson
and
members
of
the
council
and
we're
excited
to
present
to
you
tonight
our
recommendations
for
the
their
goals
and
targets
for
the
environmental
stewardship
plan.
As
mr.
Mackie
mentioned,
we
will
be
seeking
direction
on
the
goals
and
targets
for
the
plan
and
also
asking
for
a
direction
to
engage
with
boards
and
commissions
during
the
next
phase
of
the
plan
development
to
set
the
stage
for
this
discussion,
we'll
give
a
quick
recap
of
the
planning
process
and
our
accomplishments
to
date.
L
So,
just
by
way
of
recapping
that
this
is
our
process
for
updating
the
plan.
We've
essentially
completed
phase
one
where
we've
reviewed
progress,
reviewed
our
existing
goals
and
targets,
which
you
know
we've
presented
to
Council
on
and
also
identified
areas
where
the
goals
and
targets
could
stand
to
be
updated
or
supplemented,
which
is
what
we're
bringing
to
you
this
evening
since
May.
We
also
hired
a
sustainability
consultant
and
we've
been
working
with
closely
over
the
past
several
months
to
research.
L
Best
practices
from
around
the
country
and
from
Pier
cities
in
the
region
and
they've
also
supported
our
work
in
performing
public
outreach
and
engagement
and
then,
at
the
end
of
the
presentation,
we'll
talk
more
about
the
remaining
steps
in
the
planning
process,
so
also
to
recap,
some
of
the
direction
we've
received
from
Council
and
the
previous
touch
points
last
November
in
February
of
this
year
and
then
in
May
of
this
year.
To
recap,
you
know
a
lot
of
this
work
is
designed
to
address
the
council
priority
related
to
ESI.
L
You
know
evaluate
our
progress
to
date
and
then
consider
additional
actions
we
may
wish
to
take
to
achieve
our
environmental
goals,
so
the
direction
that
we
have
heard
from
council
in
the
the
previous
council
presentations
is
an
interest
for
the
city
to
lead
by
example.
In
our
municipal
operations,
we
already
have
a
number
of
great
examples
of
how
we've
been
doing
that
and
we'll
speak
to
that
more
tonight.
L
So
I
believe
you've
seen
this
slide
before,
just
to
kind
of
reorient
you
on
how
we
are
intending
to
organize
the
plan.
We'll
have
the
five
focus
areas
in
the
plan
similar
to
the
focus
areas
of
the
current
ESI
plan,
so
that
includes
climate,
energy,
mobility
and
land
use,
natural
systems
and
waste,
and
then
for
each
of
those
five
focus
areas.
L
So
as
you've
seen
in
the
the
packet
of
materials
for
tonight's
presentation,
we,
you
know
part
of
our
best
practices.
Research
was
really
to
look
at
okay.
What
are
other
cities
around
the
country?
What
kind
of
commitments
are
they
making
around
their
environmental
stewardship
and
sustainability
work?
And
you
know
when
we
last
presented
to
you,
we
said
we
would,
you
know,
try
to
to
package
these
into
some
options.
So
what
we
tried
to
do
is
really
sort
of
group
the
different
kind
of
levels
of
ambition
as
we're
calling
it
into
into
these
three
different
options.
L
We
came
up.
We
provided
a
number
of
different
examples
in
the
in
the
packet
for
tonight,
and
then
we
also
went
out
to
the
community
to
get
a
sense
of
you
know.
Where
do
our
residents
want
us
to
be,
and
how
do
they
view
the
city
and
how
important
is
it
for
our
residents
for
Bellevue
to
be
leaders
when
it
comes
to
environmental
stewardship
and
sustainability
and
I?
Think
what
we
heard
you
know
through
the
the
survey
we
which
we
conducted
within,
which
we
received
about
three
hundred
and
eighty
five
responses.
L
We
heard
from
our
residents
that
you
know
they
want
us
to
be
ambitious.
They
want
us
to
either.
You
know,
be
on
the
leading
edge
or
take
bold
action.
We
heard
that
you
know
they.
They
agree
or
strongly
agree
that
environmental
stewardship
is
important
to
the
health
and
livability
of
their
community.
L
We
already
have
some
great
partnerships
with
these
organizations
and
then
to
also
hear
kind
of
what
their
vision
is
for
for
Bellevue
as
kind
of
major
stakeholders
here
and
I.
Think
what
we
heard
from
a
lot
of
them
was
that
you
know
land
use
and
transportation.
Have
you
know
an
important
role
in
our
environmental
stewardship
work
and
from
some
of
the
representatives
there?
L
So
we
provide
a
kind
of
high-level
overview
of
our
targets,
our
recommendations
and
then,
during
the
discussion,
we
can
always
kind
of
go
back
and
and
touch
on
some
of
these
in
a
little
more
depth,
since
we
may
not
have
time
to
get
through
all
of
them.
So
the
community-wide
targets,
the
recommendations
we
came
up
with
essentially
aligned
with
kind
of
that
bold
level
of
ambition
like
I
said.
Some
of
these
are
essentially
the
same
targets
as
you
know,
other
peers,
but
maybe
we're
recognizing,
for
example,
with
zero
waste.
L
We
might
need
a
little
more
time
to
get
there.
Some
of
our
peers,
you
know
in
the
region,
have
adopted
a
zero
waste
goal
for
2030.
We
think
it
might
be
more
realistic
to
look
at
that
a
bit
longer
term
with
renewable
energy.
We're
recommending
a
hundred
percent
renewable
energy
goal,
which
is
really
ambitious,
also
something
you
know
through
the
new
statewide
legislation
that
we
think
can
be
achieved
through
that
legislation.
A
couple
of
other
highlights
are
the
electric
vehicle
ownership.
L
We
see
this
as
really
a
key
strategy
for
reducing
greenhouse
gas
emissions
and
fuel
consumption.
So
that's
an
aspirational
goal.
They're
also
looking
at
mirroring
the
the
state's
goal
of
you
know
to
use
a
more
technical
term
of
vehicle
miles,
traveled
goals,
so
the
sort
of
layman's
term
would
be
you
know
reducing
driving
by
50%
per
capita.
So
this
is
framed
as
a
per
capita
goal,
so
acknowledging
that
we
will
continue
to
have
population
and
job
growth
in
Bellevue,
but
that
we'll
be
looking
at.
You
know
with
that
knew
all
that
growth.
You
know
happening.
B
Councilmembers,
thank
you
for
letting
me
present
on
our
recommended
goals
for
municipal
operations.
At
the
last
council
meeting
that
Jennifer
presented
at
we
were
asked
to
lead
by
example
in
efficiency
of
municipal
operations.
I'm
so
excited
today
to
bring
to
you
our
recommended
goals,
for
that.
One
way
that
we
can
lead
by
example,
is
to
mirror
the
community
level
goals,
but
to
achieve
those
goals
that
a
faster
rate.
B
What
we're
recommending
is
for
a
target
year
is
a
2040
target
versus
the
community
level
goal,
which
is
a
2050
target,
so
we'd
be
achieving
our
goals
at
the
at
a
faster
rate
and
ten
years
ahead
of
the
community
level
goals.
So
as
we
go
through
strategy
development,
we
may
find
that
some
goals
may
be
more
achievable
in
the
near
term
in
terms
of
2030.
A
good
example
of
that
is
the
renewable
energy
target.
B
B
Due
to
that
commitment,
and
we've
already
expressed
our
interest
to
PSC
that
we'd
like
to
participate
in
their
phase
3
program
to
achieve
the
100%
renewable
energy
target
and
we
think
that's
definitely
achievable
by
2030
or
potentially
sooner,
we've
already
achieved
a
32
percent
energy
use,
reduction
from
our
high-performing
buildings
and
infrastructure
at
City
Hall
we're
installing
a
smart
chiller,
that's
going
to
meet
energy
code
for
the
next
20
years
by
next
year.
All
our
streetlights
will
be
100%
LEDs
and
will
result
in
operation
and
maintenance
savings.
B
Our
Utilities
Department
has
installed
a
micro
turbine
to
harness
water
pressure
that
will
completely
offset
the
electricity
use
of
our
largest
water
pump.
All
of
these
projects
that
we
are
working
towards
in
our
capital
improvement
planning
for
the
long
term
is
going
to
help
us
achieve
these
energy
use
reduction
targets
by
2040.
Our
biggest
opportunity
is
to
reduce
fuel
use
from
the
municipal
fleet
and
employee
commutes.
Our
fleet
managers
are
closely
tracking
our
fuel
use
and
we've
already
seen
a
trend
from
our
fleet.
B
Drivers
in
the
preference
to
drive
hybrid
vehicles
over
conventional
gas
vehicles,
for
as
our
technology
is
advancing
for
Evie
and
that
market.
We
think
that
we
can
Electrify
75%
of
our
light
duty
vehicles
in
our
fleet
for
the
heavy
duty
vehicles
that
remain
we're
using
biodiesel,
that
we
collect
from
commercial
restaurants
that
we
are
able
to
use
to
make
our
diesel
fuel
more
efficient
and
further
reduce
emissions.
B
B
A
good
example
of
that
is
upgrading
our
design
standards
to
reduce
or
to
implement
green
infrastructure
or
bioswales
that
helps
reduce
flooding
from
storm
water,
as
well
as
improve
air
quality,
our
water
quality
and
replenish
streams.
It
also
reduces
our
potable
water
use
and
is
less
maintenance
than
turf
grass.
So
simply
coordinating
that
across
the
city
could
have
multiple
benefits
and
a
high
impact
in
terms
of
cost
savings
and
greenhouse
gas
reductions.
B
Our
long-range
planning
efforts
are
gonna,
help
us
assume
a
proactive
approach
rather
than
a
reactive
approach.
This
often
results
in
long
term
savings.
We
see
that
a
lot
of
efficiencies
are
inefficiencies
are
caused
by
the
lack
of
communication
between
the
design
and
planning
process
and
operations
and
maintenance
outcomes,
and
so
bridging
that
gap
can
help
us
identify
opportunities
to
have
a
high
impact
and
achieve
multiple
benefits.
L
Great,
thank
you
yeah,
so
so
in
Phase,
two.
What
similar
to
what
Anna
said?
We're
really
looking
at
you
know
developing
a
list
of
possible
strategies.
You
know
based
on
best
practices
based
on
what
we're
already
doing,
based
on
what
we're
hearing
from
the
community
in
terms
of
their
priorities
and
interests,
and
then
really,
you
know,
perform
another
round
of
public
outreach
and
engagement
both
with
our
residents
and
with
our
businesses,
to
really
understand
how
different
strategies
you
know
could
potentially
be
impacted.
L
If
there's
concerns
about
any
strategies,
you
know
how
we
could
you
know,
build
support
for
different
approaches
and
then
also
kind
of
through
this
analysis
process,
where
we
also
recognize
that
we
may
have
a
need
to.
You
know,
go
back
and
revisit
the
goals
and
targets
if
we
find
we
could
potentially
be.
You
know
slightly
more
ambitious
than
we
initially
thought
or
on
the
flip
side,
if
we
realize
okay,
we
may
need
to
you
know,
adjustment
of
these
targets
to
be
a
little
bit
more
practicable
practical.
So
I
think
you
know
we.
L
The
intent
is
to
seek
direction
this
evening,
but
also
recognizing
that
you
know
this.
May
this
could
potentially
be
a
bit
of
an
iterative
process,
and
one
of
the
key
things
I
guess
to
highlight
here
as
we
go
through
this
analysis
process-
is
that
we
will
be
performing
a
cost-benefit
analysis
for
the
different
strategies.
L
L
So
we-
and
we
have
experience
doing
that,
and
you
know
our
consultants
certainly
have
a
lot
of
experience
with
that.
But
we
also
want
to
you
know,
really
get
our
community's
input
and
and
what
are
the
important
criteria
as
we
look
at
these
different
strategies
and
then,
as
part
of
the
engagement
and
analysis
process,
we're
also
recommending
to
begin
engagement
with
boards
and
commissions
you
present
and
discuss
any.
You
know:
potential
policy
related
implications
of
the
the
goals
and
targets
that
we're
recommending,
and
so
we've
outlined.
L
The
different
topics
that
are,
we
think
are
relevant
to
each
of
the
boards
and
commissions.
So
we
recognize
that
the
environmental
stewardship
plan
does
touch
on
the
work
of
a
lot
of
different
departments
and
various
boards
and
commissions,
so
working
with
the
relevant
staff
in
each
department
to
really
kind
of
frame.
What
the
what
sort
of
input
we
would
be
looking
for
from
the
boards
and
commissions.
So
with
that
I'll
just
kind
of
recap.
L
A
Thank
you
very
much.
Hey
I,
really
like
your
new
logo,
logo,
sustainable
Bellevue,
thanks
great!
So
why
don't
we
go
around
if
people
have
comments
or
questions
councilmember
Lee,
do
you
want
to
start.
I
Thank
you
great
presentation.
We
heard
the
young
people
are
talking
about
climate
change,
yeah
part
of
this
problem
in
the
stewardship
they
make
some
real
good
points
about
being
leading-edge
I.
Just
wonder
the
clarification
I
have
you
have
bold
and
vicious
and
eating
edge.
That's
a
little
bit
ahead.
So
I,
don't
know
whether
you
can
define
better.
Where
are
we
going
I
think
that
comes
from
part
of
the
the
plan
that
you
might
develop
with
some
timelines
very
specific.
He
said
of
2030
2040,
that's
20
years
from
now,
maybe
something
more
near-term.
I
I
You
know
that's
what
I'm
you
know
liaison
to
future
technology
electric
vehicle
which
obviously
impact
environment,
energy,
clean
and
the
benefit
that
comes
with
it
and
the
technology
involved,
and
you
mentioned
what
the
city
may
be
doing.
So
that
might
be
a
little
bit
more
to
it
than
just
what
you
indicated.
You
know
we
were
surprised
to
find
out
how
fast
autonomous
electric
vehicle
development
can
happen.
M
I
G
I
I
You
know
and
in
fact
commercial
many
companies
such
as
PACA
or
is
looking
at
you
know
using
that
technology
to
have
the
business
more
efficient
and
that's
that's
a
business
case
that
can
make
so
other
than
that
I
think
the
rest
of
them
speaks
for
itself,
but
it
takes
some
as
you
mention
some
little
push
leading
edge.
Another
point,
sorry
to
longer
leading
edge
means
really
probably
the
best
case.
Fast
cases
spoke.
We
have
to
copy
what
other
people
do
leading
it
means
we
are
actually
setting
the
pace
that
nobody
else's
stand.
A
N
Think
it
is
a
good
good
thing
to
be
discussing
you
know.
I
was
looking
into
this
over
the
weekend
and
I
learned
that
since
2005,
the
US
has
led
the
world
in
greenhouse
gas
reduction
with
twelve
point
four
percent
on
absolute
basis
and
almost
20
percent
per
capita,
and
the
reason
that
we've
led
the
world
and
that
a
lot
of
people
don't
know
that
that
we
have
that
were
that
we're
reducing
our
greenhouse
gases
by
the
biggest
percentage
is
because
of
the
conversion
from
coal
to
natural
gas
and
some
renewables
so
and
I.
N
Remember,
reading
a
while
back
that
if
we
converted
every
fleet
vehicle
in
the
United
States
to
either
liquid
natural
gas
or
renewable
natural
gas,
we
would
be
at
the
Kyoto
levels
or
the
Paris
climate
it
levels,
but
we
would
reduce
our
greenhouse
gas
emissions
significantly.
So
yet
I
don't
see
that
strategy
of
renewable
natural
gas
with
liquid
natural
gas
in
our
strategies
and
that's
been
one
of
the
most
meaningful
things
that
has
affected
greenhouse
gas
emissions
in
the
US.
N
So
I
think
that
we
want
to
keep
that
in
mind
and
also
as
council
member
Lee
mentioned,
the
free
market
people
want
cleaner
vehicles,
people
want
to
have
less
footprint
on
the
environment,
and
the
free
market
is
helping
us
do
that.
I
mean
I,
think
Volvo
next
year,
all
the
vehicles
are
going
to
be
either
hybrid
or
all
plug-in
electric.
N
They
have
plug-in
hybrid
or
plug-in
electric,
so
I
think
it's
happening,
and
so
the
so
you
know
that
I
think
will
help
us
achieve
our
goals
in
a
better
way,
because
we
need
that
to
happen,
and
I
really
appreciate
that
you've
talked
about
that.
You
want
to
have
something
you
want
to
look
at
strategies
that
are
high
impact.
N
One
of
the
things
that
I
think
is
really
important
is
that
we
set
goals
and
strategies
that
are
stretches,
but
that
are
achievable
because
just
setting
goals
out
there
that
we
will
never
reach
I,
don't
think
it's
a
good
exercise.
So
then
you
heard
my
comments
about
the
renewable
natural
gas
and
liquid
natural
gas
on
the
fleet
on
our
fleet.
The
state
energy
code
is
something
that
we
are
required
by
law
to
adopt.
Are
you
rec?
N
L
N
L
N
L
L
N
We
have
such
clean
energy
sector
in
Washington,
so
as
far
as
the
energy
goals,
because
we
are
not
the
energy
company
and
we
don't
have
the
ability
to
regulate
the
energy
company,
how?
How
can
we
accomplish
the
clean
energy
in
terms
of
city
operations?
Yes,
because
we
can
decide
we're
gonna,
make
sure
that
we
use
clean
types
of
technology
etc.
But
how
do
we
manage
that
now
you
haven't
come
up
with
the
strategies
yet
yeah
we
can't
regulate
the
energy
company
right
so
do
we
have
to
have
an
answer
to
that
I
think.
L
One
way
that
other
cities,
you
know
who
are
setting
similar
goals,
you
know
it
varies
from
state
to
state
in
terms
of
what
their
authorities
are,
but
in
Washington
state.
You
know
some
of
the
other
cities
are
doing.
Is
you
know,
supporting
state
led
the
state
legislation
around
clean
energy,
so
you
know
particular
is
like
the
rulemaking
starts
to
happen
with
the
clean
energy
transformation
Act.
You
know
that
would
be
things
where
the
city
might
have
an
opportunity
to.
You
know
weigh
in
on
it.
Okay,
that
sort
of
thing
so.
N
That
makes
sense
yeah
and
it's
certainly
getting
PSC
to
close
coal
strip,
which
is
one
of
the
dirtiest
coal
plants
in
the
nation,
would
be
a
really
good
step
in
the
right
now
yep,
so,
okay,
I'm
recycling
them
waste
version.
Have
you
or
will
you
seek
input
from
Cedar,
Grove
and
Republic's
or
and/or
Republic
Services?
N
L
We
would,
or
we
will
speak
with
them
about
that.
We
haven't
for
this
goal.
We
have
not
had
a
discussion
with
them
yet,
although
you
know
I'd
have
to
check
as
part
of
the
update
to
the
countywide
solid
waste
management
plan,
I,
don't
recall
exactly
how
utilities
engaged
with
Republic
and
Cedar
Grove
on
that,
but
I
think
as
part
of
that
process
of
his
regional
discussion
with
all
the
waste
haulers
but
yeah
I
think
that
that
would
be
something
zero.
N
Waste
would
be
great,
but
it's
gonna
take
the
cooperation
of
not
just
the
people
who
are
producing
the
waste
and
the
people
who
are
sending
too
much
packaging
to
people's
homes
or
that
get
picked
up
what
people
are
buying
things,
but
also
with
the
haulers
to
make
sure
that
they
can
recycle
or
compost
whatever
is
generated.
So
it
from
a
household
or
business.
M
A
M
N
Then
three
three
things
I
just
wanted
to
mention
that
I'm,
hoping
that
we
are
two
things
actually
already
managed
and
one
of
them
is
when
we
were
looking
at
the
strategies.
I
think
we
need
to
make
sure
that,
in
addition
to
looking
at
the
cost
benefits
that
we
look
at
the
economic
hacked
analysis
of
not
just
how
it
but
how
it
impacts,
you
know
people
and
businesses
in
our
community
with
regard
to
any
new
proposed
targets,
plans
to
strategies,
and
we
need
to
get
that
information
before
we
adopt.
N
So
we
know
what
you
know
eyes
wide
open
right.
The
second
is:
we
need
to
make
sure
that
we
have
a
projected
budgetary
impact
on
the
city's
budget
of
all
strategies
again
before
adoption,
so
that
we
can
know
you
know
we
are
really
great
projecting
out
and
we
need
to
make
sure
that,
if
we're
gonna
be
doing
something
that
raises
our
operational
costs,
that
we're
aware
of
that
before
we
take
action,
see
I
was
almost
done.
Thank
you.
O
Well,
first
of
all,
let
me
say
thank
you
for
the
presentation
and
thank
you
for
all
the
hard
work
in
the
research
that
you've
put
into
this
so
far.
I
really
appreciate
that,
and
it's
very
valuable
for
me
to
see
where
you're,
looking
at
best
practices
and
and
and
and
key
learnings
and
best
practices
from
so
one
of
the
C's
I
didn't
see
on
the
list
was
Portland.
O
Did
we
look
at
Portland
because
I
know
they've
done
some
very
cutting-edge
leading-edge
type
things
and
they
they've
done
a
couple
of
workshops
and
seminars
in
the
area
and
I
was
very
impressed
by
some
of
the
things
that
they
adopted
there.
So
was
that
one
of
the
cities
that
we
looked
at
as
well
yeah.
M
L
M
L
O
Great
and
then
go
into
establishing
the
ghouls
so
and
I
think
councillor
Robertson
touched
on
this
a
little
bit
and
I
just
want
to
die
just
a
little
bit
more
into
it
in
terms
of
these
goals
that
we
set
right
now,
which
you
know
some
of
them
are
great
and
fantastic,
but
are
we
setting
them
based
on
the
key
learnings
from
what
other
cities
are
doing
or
a?
We
look
setting
these
goals
based
on
what
we
think
is
achievable,
or
how
did
we
get
to
these
these
schools
that
you're
presenting
at
this
point?
L
F
L
O
O
Here,
I
mean
the
goals
are
great,
but
without
understanding
how
we're
going
to
get
there
and
and
I
think
we
might
to
have
to
look
at
adjusting
those
goals
or
increasing
those
goals,
depending
on
the
strategies
that
were
that
we're
using
so
is
that
the
intent
is
that
the
next
meeting
we
have
the
next
time
you
come
back
before
council
we'll
look
at
that
and
then
are
the
specific
actions
and
strategies.
Is
that
something
cuz
I'm
thrilled?
O
M
M
L
M
L
O
L
On
going
out
to
the
community
first
to
you
know
essentially
kind
of
shop
around
different
ideas
and
also
get
input
from
the
community
on
possible
strategies.
And
then
we
have
a
couple
more
touch
points
lined
up
next
year
with
the
council,
to
you
know,
present
kind
of
what
we're
hearing
from
the
community
in
April
and
then,
if
I,
remember
correctly,
I
think
coming
back
in
in
May
or
June
for
a
couple
of
touch
points
with.
L
O
And
then
last
point
thank
you
for
taking
the
take
a
real
holistic
view
of
the
entire
city
as
well
and
within
City,
Hall
and
looking
how
this
is
gonna
affect
across
departments
and
commissions,
so
really
appreciate
the
fact
that
you're
doing
that,
allowing
them
all
to
weigh
in
and
be
a
part
of
this
process
and
and
and
get
behind
it.
So
thank
you
for
your
efforts.
There.
P
Yeah,
thank
you
very
much
for
being
here
tonight
and
presenting
this
in
some
interesting
questions
and
observations.
Already,
one
of
the
things
that
I
believe
in
councillor
Robertson
mentioned
this
I
thought
we
actually
had
worked
with
PSC
on
the
coal
strip
and
legislation
to
get
out
of
that.
So
we
haven't
been
done.
Some
work
on
that
I
agree
with
her.
We
need
to
do
more
of
that.
P
I
know
I
owe
this
out
a
lot
because
things
like
the
grand
connection,
other
things,
I
I,
believe
in
going
big
or
go
home,
I'm
afraid
if
we
don't
go
big,
we're
gonna,
gonna
have
a
whole
and
I'm.
Just
I
would
like
to
be
able
to
make
for
this
council
that
takes
pride
in
a
lot
of
areas
of
leading
not
just
doing
what
other
cities
are
doing,
the
leading
and
all
across
the
board.
P
How
we
deal
with
businesses,
how
we
deal
with
infrastructure
and
and
the
fact
that
we
have
a
leading-edge
transportation
unit
that
works
on
you
know
sustainable
and
electric
vehicles
and
all
sorts
of
new
things
that
are
coming
through
and
moving
fast
on
that
and
but
yet
we
seem
to
be
I
think
we
see
be
kind
of
stuck
in
well.
Let's
do
what's
really
good
and
I
would
like
to
be
able
to
look
at
this
and
say:
what
could
we
do?
P
P
For
example,
I
just
can't
you
know
waiting
30
years
to
get
from
37
to
40
percent.
You
kind
of
love
this
in
so
I.
Just
think
there
are
things
we
can
do,
some
things
we're
not
gonna,
be
able
to
do
I'd
like
to
see
a
little
broader,
more
I
guess
complex.
Look
at
this!
The
last
point
I
want
to
make
is
on
the
waste
reduction
and
recognize
that
we
have
an
opportunity
with
what
occurred
with
the
solid
waste
evasion.
P
P
You
know
trash
and
all
that
that's
an
old
idea,
and
it's
it's.
It
has
some
real
serious
problems.
The
other
answer
is
to
use
rail
and
railroads
that
will
do
it
and
I
have
a
problem
with
taking
our
garbage
and
sending
it
out
to
someplace
else.
The
opportunity
we
have
is
is
waste
energy,
which
is
gathering
I,
think
a
lot
of
steam,
that's
being
done
a
lot
of
places
and
I
would
like
to
see
us
look
at
that
and
see.
If
we
can
support
that
and
again
that's
a
that
is
a
leading
edge
piece.
P
Although
it's
been
done
for
a
long
time,
but
the
opportunity
there
is
to
do
it
cost
a
lot,
but
in
the
long
run
it
costs
a
lot
less,
and
you
know
there
aren't
placed
people
who
are
in
places
that
are
setting
goals
for
a
hundred
percent
reduction
in
certain
things.
So
I
just
would
like
to
see.
Bellevue
is
always
out
there
we're
a
leading
city,
and
so
many
things
I'd
like
to
see
us
be
a
leading
City
and
environmental.
A
D
D
I
think
that
I
appreciate
the
fact
that
we're
separating
out
the
municipal
operations
from
the
community-wide
and
that
we're
leading
the
charge
so
we're
actually
setting
a
higher
target
for
us
in
the
municipal
operations
than
our
community,
because
we
need
to
be
showing
that
we're
modeling
the
way
so
I
appreciate
that
I
I
also
it.
It
was
good
to
hear
that
our
sustainability
leadership
companies
have
even
more
ambitious
goals.
D
The
idea
of
zero
emission
vehicle
zero
waste
carbon
neutral
by
2030
2040,
if
our
Kim,
if
our
businesses
in
the
community
already
ready
to
do
it,
then
what
are
we
doing?
So
you
know
I
and
I-
want
to
share
this
story,
because
on
Saturday
I
had
a
chance
to
hear
some
voices
from
youth,
and
literally
some
of
the
youth
were
telling
me
they're,
making
decisions
about
whether
they
want
to
have
children
because
of
the
climate
effects
of
human
beings.
D
So
to
me,
I
I
start
looking
at
what
we're
doing
and
saying
that
I
think
we
need
to
be
going
much
bolder.
You
know
in
that
leading
edge
instead
of
the
setting
realistic
goals.
How
did
we
ever
get
things
done
with
we
just
set
realistic
goals.
I
mean
we
need
to
be
aspirational.
We
need
to
what's
that
big
hairy,
audacious
goals,
that's
what
we
should
be
doing,
because
us
adults
are
making
decisions
on
behalf
of
our
youth
and
the
kids
aren't
even
born
yet.
D
So
you
know
I
think
that
we
will
get
a
lot
more
innovation
in
creativity
and
technology.
She's
gonna
come
along
if
we
actually
set
some
intentionality
about
being
leading-edge,
so
I
would
certainly
push
for
that.
My
understanding
is
that
the
Bellevue
School
District
at
cuesta
del
Sol
Elementary
they're
already
designing
for
a
zero
energy
building,
so
the
technology
is
already
here
and
so
I
would
definitely
push
for
that.
We
didn't
talk
about
the
legend
alysus
in
here.
That
k4c
has
already
been.
D
D
I
think
we
need
to
actually
have
the
courage
to
act
to
step
forward,
so
the
80
percent
greenhouse
gas
reductions
by
2050
for
the
community
getting
there
in
the
municipal
operations
by
2040
I'm,
not
sure
that
I
accept
that
we
only
want
to
get
to
the
light
duty
vehicles
for
the
city,
I.
Think
if
we're
talking
about
2040,
if
we
push
for
the
technology,
they
will
come
up
with
for
our
medium
and
heavy-duty
vehicles.
What
would
less
greenhouse
gas
emissions?
D
Look
like
for
those
vehicles
so
and
then
I
think
someone
earlier
mentioned
that
we
should
be
setting
goals
at
2030
instead
of
only
2040
and
2050.
So
I
agree
with
that
and
then
I
I
would
just
close
with
this
I
think
that
if
we
started
looking
at
every
decision
that
we
make
related
to
design
purchasing
related
to
what
does
it
mean
in
terms
of
our
climate
and
greenhouse
gas
emissions,
we
will
act.
D
D
A
Time
myself
here,
I
think
everybody
said
just
about
everything.
I
was
going
to
say
it
was
a
good
good
conversation,
good
comments,
there's
kind
of
that
challenge
of
getting
the
balance
between
the
best
practices
and
the
actual
achievable
goals.
That
I
would
like
to
stretch
us
a
little
bit
more
because
there's
the
there's
the
desire
for
the
leading
edge,
although
I
know
that's
not
also
practical
for
our
city,
but
I
would
like
to
if
we're
doing
through
to
your
plan
on
five-year
increments.
A
I
would
really
like
to
see
us
stretch
ourselves
a
little
bit
more
and
you
know
try
to
do
the
low-hanging
fruit
and
then
put
in
some
higher
achievable
goals
and
I.
Do
like
the
idea
of
looking
at
the
cost
impact
on
the
residents
and
the
cost
impact
on
the
city
as
well
for
doing
these
things,
so
we
can
make
an
educated
decision
on
what
direction
we
want
to
go.
A
L
Not
cities
sponsored
but
I
think
it's
the
Green
Teams
from
the
different,
mostly
high
schools
and
there's.
Another
group
called
the
sustainability
ambassadors
that
works
with
youth
to
help
sort
of
cultivate
student
leaders
in
sustainability,
and
we
had
one
representative
there,
our
environmental
stewardship
and
now
there's.
M
A
D
Only
comment
is
when
you
look
at
the
economic
analysis,
I
think
it's
also
important
to
look
at
the
fact
that
Public,
Health,
clean
water
and
clean
air
actually
has
a
a
cost
in
a
and
a
benefit
as
well.
So
it's
not
just
looking
at
the
dollars
and
cents
of
of
how
much
we
pay,
but
you
know
the
rate
of
asthma
reduction
and
any
number
of
other
things
are
also
important.
So,
let's
make
sure
that
we
look
at
holistically.
Thank
you
good.
J
Tonight
is
the
third
of
seven
presentations,
I
believe
on
the
city's
2019
and
2020
mid,
buy
budget.
Tonight's
presentation
will
cover
three
topics.
One
is
an
overview.
All
the
changes
in
mid
biennium
in
the
next
two.
We
are
actually
seeking
council
direction
on
one
is
on
the
fire.
Inspection
fees
and
another
is
on
affordable
housing.
House
bill
1406,
you
know
joining
us
this
evening
is
Tony
call
our
finance
director
to
her
right
is
ke
Liu,
our
assistant
director
and
finance
administrative
services
and
to
oh
man.
J
Q
Verse,
it's
lovely
to
be
back
here
again
this
evening.
As
the
city
manager
Miyake
mentioned.
This
is
the
third
I
believe
of
six
times
that
will
be
in
front
of
you
over
the
course.
The
next
few
weeks
we
do
have
a
fairly
full
agenda
for
you
this
evening
and
because
we
do
have
change
in
presentations
tonight,
we'll
start
with
this
panel
and
then
part
way
through
we'll
talk
about
the
panel
and
have
some
more
folks,
Oh
chief
Hagen
and
Kent
Carlson
are
also
here
this
evening.
Q
Talking
about
fire
inspection
fees,
so
you'll
see
us
kind
of
split
this
into
three
sections
to
help
navigate
through
this.
As
city
manager
Miyake
mentioned,
we
are
looking
for
a
direction
this
evening
into
specific
areas.
The
first
is
in
substitute
House
bill,
1406,
that's
the
affordable,
housing
sales
tax
credit.
We
need
to
bring
that
back
to
you
on
November
18th,
on
the
consent
calendar
in
order
to
meet
the
November
30th
deadline,
to
ensure
that
we
can
collect
those
funds
and
secure
that
funding
by
the
1st
of
January
2020.
Q
So
that's
on
our
list
tonight
and
then
we'll
also
be
looking
for
a
direction
on
a
fire
inspection
fee
update
as
we
head
through
tonight.
We've
got
a
few
things
in
our
agenda
today.
I'll
give
a
quick
calendar
reminder:
I'll,
give
you
an
overview
of
the
mid
biennium
I've
got
two
short
slides
on
the
general
fund
forecast
just
so
they
can
reground
where
that's
at
and
what's
changed
or
not
changed
since
the
last
time
we
met
and
then
we'll
move
into
the
more
substantive
issues
tonight,
a
1406
and
fire
inspection
fee.
Q
So
looking
at
our
calendar,
I
joined
you
on
October
28th,
and
we
gave
a
quick
short
presentation
on
exactly
the
calendar
that
you
see
in
front
of
us
on
November
4th.
The
director
Brennan
was
here.
He
gave
a
development
services
fee
update
at
that
time.
You
did
give
direction
to
us
to
bring
back
development
services
fee
on
December,
2nd
and
included
in
that
presentation
was
the
six
FTEs
that
he
was
looking
for
to
continue
to
manage
the
development
pipeline
that
we're
seeing
tonight
will
be
already
talked
about
that
moving
on
to
November
18th.
Q
We
have
study
session
time
with
you
and
that
will
kind
of
go
over
a
detail
or
review
of
and
operating
adjustments.
I
would
like
to
bring
to
your
attention
that
by
the
time
we
finish
our
November
18th
study
session
with
you,
it
should
be
next.
Monday
staff
will
have
presented
all
the
changes
on
the
mid
biennium
to
you.
So
if
you
have
other
areas
that
you
want
us
to
look
at,
that
would
be
a
good
opportunity
to
provide
us
those
that
you
can
come
back
on
the
25th
for
you
on
the
25th.
Q
We
do
have
the
mid
biennium
public
hearing,
and
then
we
have
proposed
adoption
on
December
2
and
speaking
of
adoption
on
November
2
I
think
all
have
been
engaged
in
a
budget
process
before
so.
I
do
know
that
when
you
get
to
adoption
night,
there's
a
whole
series
of
things
that
need
to
be
adopted,
and
in
this
case
we're
looking
at
five
or
six
or
seven
things
to
actually
adopt
the
budget
for
the
mid
biennium
so
heading
into
a
mid
biennium
overview
city
managing
Miyake
mentioned
it
truly
is
limited
in
nature.
Q
This
is
a
time
where
we
take
a
step
back
check
halfway
in
on
the
budget
process,
make
sure
that
the
budget
is
performing
as
we
thought
it
should
perform
check
it
to
make
sure
that
we
don't
have
any
known
events
that
we
should
be
adjusted
for
and
updated
for
all
the
technical
adjustments
that
need
to
occur.
So
in
this
mid
biennium,
the
first
two
items
you'll
hear
tonight
on
November
18th.
We
have
two
other
items
for
you
to
bring
to
your
attention.
Q
When
you
adopted
the
2019
2020
budget,
you
actually
adopted
a
1%
increase
in
2020
RCW
does
require
us.
Actually,
council
requires
council
to
actually
set
the
property
tax
rate
every
year,
so
we'll
need
to
bring
back
that
property
tax
discussion,
so
we'll
bring
something
back
to
you
next
week
on
that
and
then
director
single
aqus
and
Erica
Miller
will
be
here.
We
have
seen
a
or
have
been
notified
of
a
change
in
our
trip
generation
rates
that
are
one
of
the
foundational
elements
of
the
transportation
impact
fee.
Q
So
they'll
be
back
here
next
week
to
talk
about
a
revised
fee
schedule
in
relation
to
that
trip
generation
rate.
So
they'll
be
back
next
week:
modest
investments.
We
do
have
a
series
of
modest
investments,
we're
doing
in
this
mid.
Biennium
development
services
you've
been
briefed
on
next
week.
Chief,
my
lot
will
be
here
and
we'll
talk
through
the
adding
of
two
positions
in
the
police
department,
and
then
we
also
have
some
changes
in
the
housing
fund,
some
of
which
are
related
to
1604
and
some
of
which
are
related
to
the
arch
budget.
Q
That
came
before
you
back
in
October,
so
we'll
bring
all
those
things
for
you
in
the
bit
other
than
that.
The
mid
biennium
is
truly
full
of
technical
changes.
We've
updated
the
cost-of-living,
the
cpi-w,
the
medicare
rates,
the
we've
looked
at
all
of
our
major
revenue
streams
and
made
sure
they're
still
performing
within
budget.
The
only
CIP
changes,
you're
gonna
be
seeing
this
time
are
those
that
come
with
dedicated
grant
revenue.
So
there's
no
other
changes
in
the
CIP,
so
we'll
bring
that
back
to
you.
Q
We
do
have
three
other
funds
that
just
need
some
cleanup
appropriation
work
done:
the
water
fund,
the
operating
grants
and
donations
fund,
the
Human
Services
fund
I'm
not
planning
on
going
into
a
deep
dive
on
these
technical
issues.
If
anyone
has
questions
around
them
or
there's
something
like
more
information
on
just
let
us
know,
I'd
be
more
than
happy
to
provide
it
to
you.
Q
So
with
that,
let
me
jump
into
the
quick
general
fund
forecast
of
where
we're
at
this
forecast
is
very
similar
to
the
ones
you've
seen
in
the
past
and
kind
of
just
re
grounding
on
the
chart,
the
line
with
the
blue
line
with
the
diamonds
on
it.
Those
are
our
expenditure
forecasts
and
the
green
line
with
the
dots
on
it.
That
is
our
revenue
forecasts
and,
as
our
message
has
been
for
a
bit
and
continues
to
be
that
we
do
see
that
expenditures
will
outstrip
revenues
sometime
in
the
2122
budget
process.
Q
We've
known
this
for
a
bit
now,
in
fact,
council
took
very
clear
action.
Last
time
you
adopted
the
budget,
which
was
a
year
ago
by
adopting
a
budget
that
included
that
1%
property
tax
adjustment
for
both
years
and
also
implementing
that
new
fire
inspection
fee.
So
those
actually
were
the
first
steps
to
moving
us
forward.
Q
We
know
this
is
occurring.
We
know
that
we're
gonna
see
this
kind
of
imbalance
in
revenues
and
expenditures.
For
a
couple
of
reasons,
we
have
some
known
events,
the
sales
tax
annexation
money
that
will
no
longer
be
ours
and
effective
of
2022,
it's
worth
about
a
million
dollars,
and
then
we
are
opening
fire
station
10
as
well,
which
is
a
critically
needed
facility
for
us,
but
it
does
come
with
a
and
the
cost
is
about
three
million
dollars
a
year.
Q
In
addition,
the
other
reasons
that
you
see
that
expenditure
line
feeling
tremendous
pressure
is
the
urbanization
you
see
in
the
city.
We
continue
to
feel
that
and
making
sure
that
we're
able
to
deliver
our
services
and
we
are
continuing
to
put
new
infrastructure
in
place
and
every
time
you
put
new
infrastructure
in
place,
we
need
to
put
in
dollars
to
maintain
that
infrastructure.
So
all
of
those
things,
plus
probably
several
others-
are
continuing
to
put
pressure
on
or
out
your
forecast.
Q
Last
year,
when
we,
when
we
adopted
the
budget
city
manager,
Miyake
committed
to
ensuring
a
review
and
a
deep
dive
on
the
expenditure
side,
he
has
tasked
the
leadership
team,
which
is
a
group
of
all
the
directors
at
the
city
here
to
actually
do
that
deep
dive,
they
are
looking
at
a
whole
host
of
things,
including
best
practices
to
find
efficiencies.
We're
also
reviewing
service
levels
of
some
of
our
major
programs,
we'll
be
bringing
back
to
mr.
Miyake
information
on
that
and
then
bring
that
back
to
Council
next
year.
Q
So
as
we
embark
on
the
2122
budget
process,
that
information
will
be
coming
forward
as
we
bring
back
solutions
to
how
to
think
about
the
fact
that
we
have
our
lines
crossing
in
the
out-years
and
the
last
slide.
I
have
for
you
before
we
kind
of
roll
into
more
substantive
work
is
around
the
actual
ending
fund
balance
of
you've
seen
this
slide
before.
This
is
the
slide
that
shows
that
if
we
do
nothing,
we
will
bleed
our
ending
fund
balance
and
currently
we
are
running
right
around
22%
ending
fund
balance.
Q
We
do
know
that
expenditures
will
outstrip
revenues
and,
as
that
starts
to
happen,
our
ending
fund
balance
will
bleed.
If
we
do
nothing,
it
will
cross
the
infamous
black
line
up
to
15%
council
policy
somewhere
out
in
the
2023
2024
range,
all
right,
that's
kind
of
an
overview
of
the
mid
bye
and
an
update
on
our
forecast
before
we
move
on
to
House
bill
1406.
Do
you
have
questions
about
where
we're
headed
with
the
mid
vile,
where
we've
been
with
the
mid,
bye
or
anything
on
the
on
the
forecast
before
we
move
on?
O
This
general
fund
forecast,
yes,
sir,
so
this
is
probably
a
bigger
topic
and
maybe
not
appropriate
for
right
now.
But
how
are
we
going
to
address
this
we've
known
about
this
for
a
little
while
and
I
think
we've
pushed
it
out
a
little
bit,
but
you
know
2023
is
not
that
all
far
away.
So
how
are
we?
Is
there
a
plan
in
place
to
address
this,
or
is
this
coming
before
council
again
that
we
can
discuss
what
our
options
are?
Thank.
Q
O
O
Q
We
are
working
diligently
at
finding
we're
actually
doing
a
very
deep
dive
and
scrubbing
all
of
our
expenditures.
To
be
honest
with
you
and
making
sure
that
we
truly
do
have
a
clean
house,
we're
looking
at
everything
we
can
think
of,
and
we
will
be
bringing
that
entire
discussion.
It's
going
to
be
probably
the
large
basis
of
our
budget
for
2122
next
year
with
council,
so
I
think
that
we'll
probably
start
there
only
part
of
next
year.
Okay,.
R
R
One
piece
is
the
resolution
of
intent
to
express
our
interest
in
participating
and
at
the
second
piece,
is
the
ordinance
to
impose
the
credit
so
some
background
on
substitute
hospital
1406.
So
this
is
a
state
legislature
that
passed
the
2019
legislative
session
and
what
it
does
is
it
redirects
a
portion
of
stage
sales
and
use
tax
revenue
for
the
local
use
for
affordable
housing?
R
One
thing
that
we
do
want
to
highlight
is
this
is
not
a
tax
increase.
It
does
not
have
an
impact
to
the
consumers
who
purchase
in
bellevue,
because
if
their
total
rate
won't
change,
it
is
a
credit
against
the
state
portion
of
the
sales
and
use
tax
that
they
already
collect
within
bellevue
the
rate
that
Beaulieu
as
a
little
4s
point
zero
zero.
Seven,
three
percent
of
the
total
taxable
retail
sales
within
bellevue
and
the
credit
is
authorized
for
20
years,
starting
from
the
date
that
we
imposed
the
tax.
R
The
state
statute
also
sets
a
annual
maximum
distribution
cap
for
us,
and
it's
calculated,
based
on
the
total
taxable
retail
sales
within
state
fiscal
year,
2019,
that
is
between
july
first
of
2018
through
june
30th
of
2019.
So
this
sets
the
cap
for
us
and
based
on
a
little
rate,
we
calculated
we
estimated
a
six
hundred
and
twenty
five
thousand
per
year
for
us,
and
this
revenue
will
fluctuate
depending
on
our
sales
tax
base.
But
as
long
as
our
sales
tax
base
keeps
expanding,
we
think
we
will
receive
the
maximum
amount.
R
So,
in
order
to
secure
this
funding
from
state,
there
are
two
pieces
of
legislation
required,
as
I
mentioned
one
as
the
resolution
of
intend
to
express
our
interest
in
participating
and
impose
this
credit.
The
second
piece
is
the
ordinance
to
actually
impose
this
credit
and
also
modify
the
city
sales
tax
code,
f-con
so
choose
to
adopt
both
pieces
of
legislation.
What
happens
next?
R
We
would
notify
state
of
Washington
Department
of
Revenue
on
this
tax
change,
and
we
will
also
be
doing
annual
reporting
to
state
how
much
revenue
we
collected
under
this,
and
how
are
we
using
this
funding?
The
eligible
use
of
this
revenue
as
in
alignment
ways.
The
affordable
housing
strategy
that
was
adopted
by
council
in
2017
and
the
eligible
use
identified
by
the
bill
includes
two
purposes,
so
we
can
use
it
for
acquiring,
rehabilitating
or
constructing,
affordable
housing,
or
we
can
use
it
to
fund
the
operations
and
maintenance
of
the
new
units.
R
And
here
is
our
proposed
implementation
plan
for
substitute
hospital
1406
tonight
we
are
during
council
briefing
and
bring
this
forward
for
your
discussion
and
directions.
If
you
approve
the
on
November
18th
on
the
consent
calendar,
we
will
bring
back
the
resolution
of
intent
and
the
ordinance
2
for
adoption
and
the
program
revenue
will
distribute
our
first
1406
revenue
to
us,
along
with
our
January
2020
sales.
Tax
distribution
and
in
2020
council
can't
have
further
discussion
on
the
specific
use
of
this
revenue.
R
P
Yes,
I
think
it's
really
a
great
thing
and
we
need
to
take
advantage
of
it
and
I'm
all
in
favor
bring
it
back,
and
we
really
appreciate
the
legislature
taking
this
action
and
this
the
the
end
and
doing
it
in
a
way
that
that's
not
always
we
just
you,
know,
included
80%
below
but
getting
to
the
60%
below
it's
very
important,
and
it
gives
us
a
lot
more
tools
than
we.
We
have
right
now.
So,
let's
get
it
in
place
and
be
ready
for
that.
January
distribution,
right,
yeah,.
A
P
A
D
I'm
excited
as
well,
especially
the
piece
around
being
able
to
work
to
fund
preservation,
because
I
think
the
quickest
way
to
make
sure
that
we
have
affordable
housing
is
to
make
sure
that
we're
preserving
the
ones
that
are
here
because
it
takes
a
while
to
build
new.
So
I'm
excited
to
support
this
Thank
You
councilmember.
O
N
This
is
just
us
being
able
to
spend
the
state's
portion
of
the
sales
taxes
generated
in
Bellevue
better
than
the
state
can,
because
I
think
that
we
can
so
I
think
communicating
that
out
is
going
to
be
a
critical
part
of
bringing
this
to
us,
but
also
implementing
it
and
I'm
looking
forward
to
passing
it.
Thank
you
tell.
I
It's
a
good
thing
to
get
six
hundred
twenty-five
thousand
dollars
a
year.
You
know
more,
you
very
important
was
while
project
purpose,
affordable
housing
for
people.
You
know
you
know
sixty
percent,
but
the
question
I
have
for
concern.
Maybe
is
I
want
to
be
sure
that
we
don't
run
out
of
money
somehow
somehow
in
the
future,
the
state's
gonna
say.
Well,
we
we
don't.
We
can
pay
you
six
twenty
five.
We
have
to
increase
tax
place
or
you
have
to
pay
for
or
somehow
it
gets
a
moved
into
something.
I
R
D
Q
So
I
think
what
they've
done
a
couple
things
at
the
state.
So
we
do
have
a
growing
economy
here
in
the
state
of
Washington,
so
my
guess
is,
as
they
looked
at
the
growth
of
the
revenue
stream
and
said.
Yes,
this
is
the
highest
and
best
use
of
that
growth
of
that
revenue
stream.
The
state
legislature
in
this
bill
has
committed
the
money
to
us
for
20
years
now.
Of
course,
it
does
have
a
sunset
clause
of
20
years,
but
they
have
committed
it
to
us
for
20
years
unless
they
change
the
law.
Q
I,
don't
know
how
they
would
be
able
to
not
continue
to
fund
it.
Just
like
we
currently
receive
money
from
our
states
to
our
state
shared
tax
revenues.
Those
are
currently
under
laws.
Well,
so
they're
always
pop
I,
guess,
there's
always
the
potential
of
risk.
You
can't
say:
there's
no
risk
but
I
don't
believe
it's
a
very
high
risk
I.
They
have
made
a
commitment,
a
very,
very
public
commitment
in
this
bill,
so.
I
The
economy
shrinks
it
somehow
they,
the
economy.
You
know
the
tax
day,
cuz
I
doesn't
have
that
extra.
You
know
16
25
thousand.
For
us,
we
may
not
get
it
what
they
may
say,
hey
sorry,
the
economy,
it's
not
that
girl.
We
don't
have
the
tax
to
take
care
of
our
regular
business.
So
maybe
we
only
give
you
two
hundred
thousand
or
maybe
nothing
makes
it
right.
It's
possible.
It
is
possible.
I
I
Q
A
I
A
Feel
like
Bellevue's,
uniquely
poised
to
utilize
this,
because
we
have
an
affordable
housing
strategy
that
our
council
has
already
approved.
So
we
pretty
much
know
exactly
where
we're
gonna
put
that
money
and
start
directing
our
efforts.
We
already
have
a
plan
in
place
and
we
just
need
to
get
this
specific,
so
I'm
really
excited
about
it.
I
want
to
make
sure
that
everybody's
comfortable
with
this
on
the
consent
agenda.
Okay,
that's
great!
Okay!
Thank
you.
Q
S
You
good
evening,
deputy
mayor
Robinson
members
of
council
city
manager,
Miyake
thank
you
for
the
opportunity
to
be
here
to
speak
with
you
this
evening
about
the
fire
inspection
fee
about
a
year
ago.
You
asked
me
to
come
back
with
three
pieces
of
information,
for
you.
One
was
that
I
could
talk
about
how
we
have
conducted
outreach
in
the
community
about
this
feed.
S
To
is
that
I
come
back
with
recommendations
that
we
adjust
the
fee
to
eclectic
just
enough
to
get
the
work
done
and
three
that
we
understand
the
relationship
between
the
level
of
effort
and
conducting
the
inspections
and
the
fees
that
were
collecting
and
I'll.
Tell
you
that
right
away
in
January,
Bellevue,
firefighters
and
fire
prevention
officers
got
busy.
S
We
got
over
half
the
inspections
for
the
year
done
prior
to
June
1st
of
this
year,
which
gave
us
a
data
set,
so
we
were
really
able
to
analyze
that
work
and
without
further
ado,
I'd
like
to
introduce
our
fire
marshal
Ken
Carlson
who's
going
to
take
us
through
a
very
brief
slide
deck
about
more
detail
in
these
three
areas.
You
asked
me
to
report
on
and
then
we'd
like
to
ask
you
for
some
advice
and
entertain
your
questions.
Okay,.
T
Deputy
mayor
Robinson
members
of
the
council
is
the
chief
said:
I've
got
a
brief
slide.
Deck
called
step
through
I'm
happy
to
entertain
any
questions
along
the
way
and
assuming
that
you
agree
with
the
recommendations,
we're
gonna
present
from
you,
we'd
like
you
to
direct
us
to
come
back
on
December
2nd
with
the
revised
ordinance
modifying
the
fire
inspection
fees
as
they
currently
exist.
T
T
So
back
in
December
of
2018,
you
approved
an
ordinance
that
directed
us
to
start
collecting
fire
inspection
fees
on
the
1st
of
December
or,
excuse
me,
the
1st
of
January
in
2020,
and
at
that
council
meeting
you
directed
us
to
use
2019
to
conduct
stakeholder
outreach
and
adjust.
The
fees
is
necessary
to
accomplish
two
things.
T
One
was
to
cover
the
cost
of
the
fire
inspection
fire
inspectors
that
perform
the
inspections
and
ensure
that
there
was
a
nexus
between
the
level
of
effort
that
required
that
and
the
fee
that
we
were
gonna
collect
early
on
the
chief
and
I
met
with
the
Chamber
of
Commerce
in
the
Downtown
Association.
Shortly
thereafter,
we
sent
notices
to
every
stakeholder
Association
that
we
could
identify
and
ask
that
they
in
turn
distribute
that
information
along
to
their
members.
T
We
direct
mail
to
anybody
that
was
due
for
an
inspection
in
2019,
notifying
them
that
this
inspection
fee
was
going
to
happen
on
the
1st
of
January
and
asked
them
to
provide
us
some
information
so
that
we
could
do
the
analysis
and
and
make
sure
that
we
were
on
target
we
created
handouts
that
were
distributed
at
the
time
of
inspections.
We
provided
information
on
our
website
and
between
myself
and
all
of
our
staff,
including
the
firefighters.
We
responded
to
countless
questions
from
our
stakeholders.
T
As
the
chief
mentioned,
we
were
able
to
accomplish
over
half
of
our
inspections
through
June
and
during
that
time
period
we
asked
staff
to
track
their
time
associated
with
the
inspections.
We
worked
really
hard
to
create
a
more
accurate
database
of
the
buildings
than
we
had
at
hand
and
throughout
the
year
we've
analyzed
that
information
against
the
objectives
that
council
had
given
us
last
year
and
made
ongoing
refinements
to
calibrate,
if
you
will,
the
fire
inspection
fee.
T
So
these
are
the
significant
changes
that
we're
proposing.
The
first
might
not
look
like
much,
but
in
the
ordinance
as
it
stands
right
now,
we
were
gonna
collect
an
inspection
fee
from
tenants,
as
well
as
from
the
building
owners
for
the
common
spaces,
and
we
realized
early
on
that.
If
we
did
that
that
we
would
grossly
over
collect
the
target.
Our
target
was
just
to
cover
the
cost
of
the
inspection
program
that
it
would
greatly
complicate
things
because
tenants
come
and
go.
They
expand
and
contract.
T
And
last
but
not
least,
we
had
a
number
of
building
owners
that
asked
us
not
to
do
that,
because
their
rents
that
their
tenants
were
pain,
actually
got
to
part
of
that
common
area.
So
we
would
be
double
dipping,
so
we
said
that
doesn't
make
a
lot
of
sense.
So
that's
one
of
the
first
changes.
Second
one
was
to
eliminate.
T
The
proposed
fee
for
the
mall
itself,
we're
also
proposing
to
change
the
methodology
that
we
use.
When
we
have
a
scenario
where
you
have
multiple
buildings
that
sit
atop
across
a
common
podium-
and
in
that
case
we
would
treat
the
podium
and
the
parking
structure
is
a
separate
entity
different
than
the
things
above
it
we're
proposing
to
decrease
the
fees
for
townhomes,
mini
storage,
warehouses
and
multifamily
buildings.
That
are
three
storeys
unless
in
height,
and
this
gets
to
the
level
of
effort
fee
collected
issue.
T
So
now
I'm
going
to
step
through
some
examples
of
how
those
translate
into
actual
fees.
So
the
first
one
is
for
a
state
or
county
agency.
They
currently
in
the
ordinance,
be
exempt
as
we
take
that
exemption
away
in
this
particular
example
would
be
a
12,000
square
foot
business
occupancy
and
using
the
factors
that
are
in
the
ordinance,
they
would
pay
a
540
dollar
inspection
fee.
For
this.
T
The
second
example
is
the
mall
that
I
spoke
to
so
currently,
each
tenant
would
be
separately
invoiced
and
the
owner
for
the
common
area
and
we're
proposing
in
the
ordinance
that
we
would
create
new
square
footage
factors
for
this
exact
scenario.
So
the
mall
would
pay
a
total
of
four
thousand
three
hundred
and
twenty
dollars
and
the
tenants
would
no
longer
be
invoiced.
T
This
is
the
buildings
above
common
podium
scenario,
so
the
high-rise
structure
there
would
be
no
change,
but
when
there's
a
common
podium
beneath
them,
then
that
would
be
treated
separately.
So
in
this
particular
example,
the
podium
and
the
parking
would
represent
six
hundred
and
eighty-two
thousand
square
feet,
and
that
would
generate
an
inspection
fee
in
and
of
itself
of
two
thousand
one
hundred
and
sixty
dollars.
The
high-rises
above
would
still
be
at
the
same
rate
that
they
always
were
next
example,
is
for
a
townhome.
T
T
And
the
next
example
is
the
complex
so
based
on
the
current
ordinance
and
in
the
proposed
ordinance,
the
calculated
few
would
be
ten
thousand
four
hundred
and
forty
dollars
for
seventeen
buildings
in
this
complex.
It's
a
school
complex.
What
we're
proposing
is
to
cap
that
so
that
the
maximum
fee
for
this
complex
would
be
three
thousand
two
hundred
and
forty
dollars.
T
And,
as
the
chief
said,
this
a
quick
slide,
deck
I
went
through
kind
of
how
we
got
here.
The
significant
changes
and
provided
some
examples
and
happy
to
entertain
any
questions
that
you
might
have
and
if
you're
satisfied
with
the
proposed
changes
that
you
give
us
some
direction
to
come
back
with
a
revised
ordinance
in
December.
O
O
Well,
thank
you
for
being
here
thanks
for
the
quick
presentation,
appreciate
it
and
thank
you
for
making
Bellevue
safer
and
then
in
a
day.
This
is
really
what
it's
all
about
and
appreciate
the
hard
work
that
the
fire
department
is
doing.
I
appreciate
the
outreach
and
I
really
appreciate
the
I.
Don't
think
this
gets
enough
attention
how
nimble
we
were
in
this
process.
How
quickly
you
identified
some
issues:
how
quickly
you
eliminated
some
fees
and
restructured
your
process.
I!
O
T
A
wide
variety
in
the
length
of
time
that
it
takes
to
do
an
inspection
mm-hmm.
The
mall
is
a
really
good
example,
we're
at
any
of
the
malls
for
days
and
to
conduct
a
thorough
inspection
and
keep
in
mind.
In
order
to
do
a
thorough
inspection.
We
need
some
time
to
do
the
research
so
that
we
know
you
know
what
the
history
with
the
structure
is:
yeah,
there's
travel
time
involved
the
inspection,
a
Rhian,
spec
ssin
and
hopefully
that's
the
end
of
the
process.
T
O
T
T
M
T
Took
our
best
shot
when
we
brought
the
ordinance
to
Council
last
year,
and
we
assured
people
that
the
exercise
this
year
was
to
collect
data
and
do
the
analysis
and
bring
back
to
council
what
what
made
the
most
sense.
Okay,
so
I
think
people
once
they
heard
that
you
know
they
were
ok
with
it.
Nobody
was
getting
charged
this
year,
but
it
was
an
opportunity
to
say
this
is
coming.
This
is
what
we're
gonna
do
to
prepare
for
it.
We're
gonna
do
our
best
to
get
it
right.
T
I
should
point
out
in
the
ordinance
we're
obligated
to
come
back
to
Council
every
two
years
and
report
on
right.
So
did
we
get
the
right
amount?
Does
the
fee
need
to
be
adjusted?
What's
been
added
to
the
building
stock
to
inspect?
So
if
we
didn't
get
it
right
and
we
probably
didn't
get
it
perfect,
but
hopefully
we
got
it
pretty
close.
We
have
a
chance
to
calibrate
it
every
two
years,
we'll
also
be
in
front
of
council
this
next
year,
we'll
be
adopting
the
2018
fire
code.
T
T
That's
what
I
was
trying
to
point
out
will
be
before
you
next
year,
right
first,
in
the
form
of
a
study
session,
just
to
give
you
a
heads
up
about
what's
coming
in
the
car
and
then
you'll
actually
be
adopting
an
ordinance
to
adopt
the
code
in
June.
So
there'll
be
an
early
opportunity
to
do
that,
and
if
it's
really
bad,
we
can
certainly
set
something
up
before
then
fantastic.
N
Information
I
think
that
this
exercise
this
year
really
shows
that
it
was
a
good
practice
and
a
good
idea
on
fires.
The
fire
department's
part
to
have
a
one-year
kind
of
warmup
period
where
we're
not
charging
the
fees
but
we're
looking
at
if
they
fit
and
I
think
that
we
should
keep
that
in
mind
for
the
future,
because,
throughout
the
year
we
learned
that
you
know
had
we
just
gone
with
them.
N
Taking
effect
right
away,
they
wouldn't
have
been
quite
right,
so
it
also
was
a
way
to
really
do
person-to-person
outreach
because
every
building
you're
inspecting
you
were
in
there
saying
when
we
come
back
next
time.
This
will
be
the
fee.
So
one
thing
I
was,
I
appreciate
the
the
revisions
to
the
specific
fees
and
you
say
the
examples
of
what
these
fees
would
be.
But
what
I
don't
have
is
what
these
fees,
how
these
fees
compared
to
what
the
adopted
code
fees
would
be?
What's
the
Delta
or
that
are
they
all
down?
T
Say
from
the
most
part
they
go
down
begin
because
if
you
recall
the
slide,
the
first
bullet
point
we're
no
longer
charging
the
tenants
for
their
space
right.
So
it's
it's
really
hard
to
answer
that
question
directly.
I'll,
give
you
a
couple
examples,
so
don't
so
take
a
single
tenant
high-rise
building
the
fee
in
that
particular
case
would
have
been
three
thousand
two
hundred
and
forty
dollars
because
it
was
a
single
tenant
same
owner.
T
Take
that
same
building
next
door
and
put
in
50
tenants
in
each
of
those
tenants
would
have
been
invoiced,
plus
the
building
owner,
so
the
fee
would
have
been
different
for
the
same
building
right
use.
The
example
of
the
mall
I
can
say,
with
a
straight
face,
that
the
total
cost
for
the
mall
went
down.
T
The
cost
of
the
owner
of
the
mall
went
up,
but
if
the
feedback
that
we
got
from
some
of
the
building
owners
that
look
I,
don't
want
you
to
charge
the
tenants
and
us
because
they're
already
paying
for
part
of
their
rent,
you
know
goes
to
that
common
space.
Then
the
total
cost
goes
down.
So
it's
a
little
bit
hard
to
answer
that
directly,
but
by
and
large
they
went
down
just
because
we're
only
building
a
single
entity
right
well.
N
And
that
makes
a
lot
of
sense
to
me,
because
tenants
can
be
very
confused
because
they
pay
cam-cam
charges
which
stands
for
common
area
maintenance
charges
in
most
standard
leases
for
commercial
leases.
They're
gonna
pay
their
share
of
the
common
area
provisions,
but
then,
if
they're
also
paying
an
individual
bill
and
if
the
two
combined
is
less
under
this,
that's
good
for
everybody,
because
the
building
owner
is
gonna,
collect
their
costs
anyway.
N
So,
okay,
that's
that's
helpful
to
know
that
in
general,
it
went
down
and
I
understand
that
that
one
of
the
reasons
they
went
down
is
because
we
would
have
been
over
collecting
to
pay
for
our
time
but
I.
But
from
what
I
understand
from
my
discussions
with
you
off,
the
record
were
that
we
have
someone's
fire
fighters
coming
along
and
we're
not
covering
their
costs.
So
there
is
some
subsidy
from
the
general
fund
to
improve
public
safety
on
some
of
these
part.
Fire
inspections
is
that
right.
That's.
T
So
they
typically
are
only
inspecting
buildings
that
are
three
storeys
in
less
than
height
and
aren't
terribly
complex,
they're
all
getting
the
customers
that
receive
the
inspections
there
are
getting,
but
we're
not
recouping
the
cost
of
the
firefighters
performing
the
inspections,
with
the
exception
that
we've
embedded
in
this
fee
monies
to
make
sure
that
they're
properly
trained
to
do
the
inspection,
but
we're
not
recouping
that
the
total
cost
of
that
it's
a
soft
cost.
If
you
will
did
I
just.
N
So,
on
the
coming
back
every
two
years
and
listening
to
my
colleagues,
it
would
be
good
if
we
make
a
habit
of
having
this
come
back
in
the
budget
rather
than
the
mid
buy,
which
would
be
next
year,
maybe
with
some
mild
and
then
having
it,
come
back
in
the
budget
years,
because
that's
when
we
really
dive
in
and
so
it'd
be
great
to
get
it
on
that
cycle.
And
that's
when
we
adopted
it
in
the
first
place.
N
I
I
M
I
T
T
In
our
original
thought
process,
when
it
came
to
places
like
townhomes
and
multifamily
buildings
in
general
that
we
were
gonna,
try
to
structure
our
order
so
that
we
were
targeting
just
the
common
areas
of
the
building
and
when
we
tried
to
collect
that
information
from
building
owners
that
was
really
hard
to
come
by.
So
when
we
looked
at
time
spent
in
in
the
proposed
fee
collected,
we
were
trying
to
come
up
with
a
factor
that
wouldn't
depend
on
a
building
owner,
giving
us
that
information
and
settled
on
this
factor
of
0.1
for
a
town
hall.
T
I
Like
it
work,
so
every
so
I
kind
of
sort
of
average
town
house
correctly,
you've
got
a
sense
of
what
the
point
include
is,
since
most
of
them
seems
to
be
going
down.
Okay,
well,
not
going
to
much
at
all,
except
for
institutions,
government
offices
and
whatever.
How
are
you
copy?
Are
you
recovering
your
cost.
M
T
T
T
I
D
That
at
least
the
person
I
was
talking
to
small
business
concerned
about
the
cost,
even
if
it
may
seem
really
modest
to
us
when
you're
a
small
business.
That
is
every
dime
matters.
So
thank
you
for
doing
that.
My
question:
is
it
says
that
state
and
county
agencies
now
we
are
also
having
this
fee?
Are
the
nonprofit
still
exempts
that's.
D
Okay
and
I,
like
the
fact
that
we're
aligning
the
level
of
efforts
or
the
fee
and
the
cost
recovery
I,
know
we're
talking
about
the
fee,
but
I'm
curious
when
you're
out
doing
the
fire
inspections.
How
much
of
the
time
are
you
finding
issues
where
there
is
some
kind
of
of
a
violation
or
or
that
they
are
there?
You
know,
alarms,
aren't
don't
have
the
right
better
batteries
are
dead
or
what
kind
of
I
mean?
What's
the
frequency
of
an
issue
happening,
I'd.
T
Say
that
the
norm
is
that
there's
issues
that
staff
identify,
you
know,
people
they
live,
leave
busy
lives
and,
and
frankly,
if
you're
in
the
same
building
all
the
time
you
tend
to
get
blinders
on.
So
our
staff
are
coming
through
with
the
fresh
set
of
eyes,
more
often
than
not.
The
issues
that
we
find
are
easily
corrected,
but
the
fact
that
we're
pointing
them
out
and
they
get
corrected
makes
a
difference.
T
Sometimes
we
find
really
significant
issues
and
we
work
with
people
to
get
those
addressed,
and
you
know
it's
a
good
outcome
for
everybody,
but
you
I
think
it's
safe
to
say
that
there's
rarely
a
building
that
we
would
go
through,
that
we
don't
identify
some
issue.
That
needs
to
be
addressed
because.
S
On
one
of
the
things
that
Bellevue
firefighters
are
great
at
is
taking
a
really
proactive
approach
and,
for
example,
they
might
find
a
small
business
that
has
a
fire
exit
door
blocked
open
improperly,
and
they
can
simply
educate
that
business
owner
about
hey
we,
you
know
this
door
needs
to
be
closed
for
a
reason
and
they
can
simply
ask
them.
Can
I
help
you
remove
this.
S
This
rubber
wedged
is
keeping
the
door
open
and
if
they
find
more
significant
issues,
they
offer
up
alternatives
and
solutions
and
say
you
know
if
it's
gonna
cost
a
little
more
we're
going
to
try
and
work
with
you
and
if
they
find
really
complex
issues,
they
get
a
hold
of
Ken's
team
and
they
have
the
the
fire
prevention
officers.
Well,
then,
will
that
help
them
on
the
more
complex
issues,
but
but
they're
really
great
about
being
there
to
educate
as
much
as
enforce
and.
T
P
T
P
N
P
I
mean
we're
it's
one
of
these
things
where
we
we
struggled
to
get
enough
money
to
pay
for
affordable
housing,
and
this
just
seems
one
of
those
pieces,
and
so
we
doesn't
seem
to
me
that
be
too
difficult
to
to
add
it
on
if
we
thought
that
was
a
good
thing
to
do.
But
you
know
you
just
want
to
have
the
conversation.
N
So
on
that,
it
occurs
to
me
that
the
if
it's
a
county
run,
for
example,
affordable
housing,
they're
gonna,
get
their
one
point.
One
percent
of
the
sales
tax
rebate
under
substitute
House
bill,
1406
and
I
could
be
used
for
operations
of
maintenance,
Oh
their
housing.
So
there's
a
fun
I
mean
it's
they're,
getting
more
money
that
could
be
covered.
I,
don't
know
that
we
pay
it
and
there's
a
lot
of
money
that
goes
from
our
taxpayers
into
the
county
fund.
I,
don't
know
that
we
need
to
bolster
that
by
providing
free
services.

Q

A
N

J
Q
A
J
The
next
item,
deputy
mayor
and
council
member,
is
on
the
model
ordinance
for
our
local
B&O
tax.
This
one
is
largely
required
by
our
state
law
and
with
that
I'm
going
to
turn
it
over
to
Tony
car
finance
director.
Who
could
do
a
quick
presentation
on
this
and
then
we
will
look
through
the
council
for
a
direction
to
bring
this
back.
Thank.
Q
You
mr.
Miyake
deputy
mayor
and
council
members
once
again
nice
to
be
back
here
this
evening,
as
mentioned
by
state
law,
the
cities
that
impose
a
local
business
on
a
few
patient
acts,
or
you
know,
tax-
must
adopt
to
the
state's
model
ordinance.
So
this
was
implemented
back
in
2004
and
it
was
implemented
back
in
2004,
so
that
businesses
across
the
state
would
have
the
same
set
of
rules
to
abide
by
no
matter
which
city
they
were
working
in.
Q
If
there
was
a
local
bee
attack,
it's
simplified
it
for
this,
for
the
city's
updates
to
this
are
fairly
routine
and
tonight,
we're
here
to
talk
through
the
changes
which
are
mainly
housekeeping
in
nature.
They
are
really
intended
to
simplify
the
law
for
the
businesses
and
to
alleviate
some
confusion.
As
mr.
Miyake
mentioned,
we
are
looking
for
a
direction
to
bring
this
back.
Q
It
was
implemented
back
in
2004
and
since
then
you
can
see
the
fact
that
it's
been
updated
several
times
all
for
changes
in
how
businesses
operate
and
how
it
would
be
easier
and
more
efficient
for
businesses
to
be
able
to
report
that
local
be
a
no
tax
I'm
not
going
to
get
into
too
much
of
the
details
here.
If
you
have
questions,
let
us
know
I'm
going
to
turn
this
over
to
Troy
Lucas,
who
is
the
city's
tax
manager
here
to
go
through
the
actual
updates
that
are
necessary
for
this
one.
V
Good
evening,
deputy
Larry,
Robinson
city,
councilmembers
city
manager,
Miyake
I'm,
happy
to
be
here
I
have
a
whole
lot
of
fun
talking
about
taxes,
so,
as
Tony
mentioned
I'm
here
tonight.
To
brief
you
on
the
updates
to
the
model
ordinance
for
local
bno
tax
I'm
gonna
go
through
the
updates
at
a
fairly
high
level.
If
you
have
questions
who
would
like
more
detailed
information,
I'm
happy
to
provide
that
I
want
to
emphasize.
These
updates
are
mandatory,
projected
to
have
minimal
impact
to
revenue
and
simply
clarify
existing
code.
V
So
with
that
said,
I've
got
a
couple
slide
decks
here.
The
first
update
needed
by
January
1
in
2020
is
when
we
got
to
implement,
is
simplifying
the
definition
of
customer
location.
Beginning
January.
1
businesses
will
be
able
to
use
standard
business
records
such
as
invoices
and
purchase
orders
to
determine
where
to
report
local
bno
tax.
These
records
normally
contain
such
information
as
this,
where
the
services
are
ordered.
What
service
is
ordered,
where
they're
ordered
from
billing
and
mailing
address
information,
etc.
V
V
The
second
update
to
the
code
is
simplifying
reporting
for
service
business
that
allows
businesses
who
generate
gross
receipts
in
a
non
BNL
city
to
have
those
receipts
removed
from
the
municipal
calculation
of
local
B&O
tax.
Again,
this
is
a
clarification
of
current
code
that
a
business
can
use
to
more
easily
determine
when
to
exclude
certain
gross
receipts
from
the
calculation.
V
The
impact
of
this
update
has
mentioned
simply
to
simplify
the
code
for
businesses,
clarify
areas
of
confusion
and
impact
city
revenue
stream,
as
anticipated
to
be
minimal,
if
any
so
based
on
direction.
Tonight,
staff
will
return
at
a
future
meeting
requesting
formal
action
to
amend
the
code
to
reflect
the
new
model
ordinance
again,
it's
mandatory
needs
to
be
implemented
by
January
1
2012.
What
that'll?
