No description was provided for this meeting.
If this is YOUR meeting, an easy way to fix this is to add a description to your video, wherever mtngs.io found it (probably YouTube).
A
A
B
Right,
whereas
Dr
Martin,
Luther
King
Jr
devoted
his
life
to
serving
others,
reminding
us
that
human
progress
is
neither
automatic
nor
inevitable.
Every
step
toward
the
goal
of
Justice
requires
sacrifice,
suffering
and
struggle.
The
tireless
exertions
and
passionate
concern
of
dedicated
individuals
and
whereas
many
inequities
existing
during
Dr
King's
lifetime
still
persist.
Today
still
persists
today,
as
demonstrated
through
the
disparate
outcomes
of
the
global
pandemic
and
continued
social
and
racial
injustices
of
our
time.
B
And
whereas,
when
Dr
King
spoke
at
the
March
on
Washington,
he
described
a
fierce
urgency
of
now
to
take
action
toward
equality
more
than
50
years
later.
His
words
have
an
enduring
relevance
in
our
time
and
whereas
on
Martin
Luther
King
Jr
day,
we
honor
and
celebrate
the
Civil,
Rights,
icon
and
Visionary
leader,
whose
resistance
to
injustices,
including
racial
segregation,
economic
disparities,
employment
discrimination
and
denial
of
the
right
to
vote,
raised
awareness
and
spurred
action
to
expand
access
to
opportunity
and
instructional
structural
inequities
for
all
people.
B
And
whereas
the
city
of
Bellevue
is
committed
to
ensuring
access,
Equity
inclusion
and
opportunity.
Sharing
the
belief
that
the
time
is
now
to
act
with
the
Swift
urgency
to
deliver
on
promise
on
the
promise
of
Dr
King's
mission
to
foster
a
Beloved
Community
and
whereas
we
honor
Dr
King's
Legacy,
with
an
annual
local
celebration
and
health
fair
and
a
national
day
of
service
to
remind
us
that
we
are
stronger
when
we
March
forward
together.
Now.
B
Therefore,
I
on
behalf
of
Lynn
Robinson,
mayor
of
the
city
of
Bellevue
Washington
and
on
behalf
of
its
city
council,
do
hereby
Proclaim
January
16
2023,
Martin,
Luther,
King,
Jr
Day
in
Bellevue,
and
urged
all
residents
to
visit
www.mlkday.gov
to
learn
more
about
service
opportunities
across
our
country
and
to
visit
www.belvue.gov
where
they
can.
Where
you
can
register
to
attend
a
virtual
celebration
in
health,
fair
in
commemoration
of
Dr
King's
Legacy,
as
we
work
together
to
build
a
more
just,
peaceful
and
prosperous
Society
for
all.
A
C
I
would
just
like
to
say:
I
really
appreciate
the
comments
today
and
this
remembrance
of
this
just
amazing
individual.
My
contact
besides
a
lot
of
other
things
is
I
was
in
law
school
in
DC
at
the
time
and
I
did
go
down
to
the
memorial
of
the
the
to
the
Jefferson.
I
was
back
in
the
back
of
the
groom,
but
it
was
just
amazing,
and
you
know
it's
a
huge
impact
on
me
and
both
in
the
40th
year
and
the
50th
year
anniversary
I
happen
to
be
in
DC
and
attended
that
as
well,
so
it.
C
A
D
You
mayor
this
evening
there
are
two
pre-registered
speakers
and
before
I
start
calling
names
I'll
remind
the
public
that
oral
Communications
is
for
a
period
of
no
more
than
30
minutes.
One
speaker
will
be
or
three
speakers
will
be
allowed
to
speak
to
any
one
side
of
a
particular
topic,
and
you
will
be
given
up
to
three
minutes
to
make
your
comments
and
our
first
Speaker.
Actually
both
of
them
are
joining
us
here
in
person.
E
In
1928,
this
is
what
was
there.
We
can
back
up
okay,
a
town
of
over
300
homes
and
a
thousand
people
living
there
during
World
War
One,
when
there
was
so
much
demand
for
coal.
So
Swanson
house
is
the
little
black
rectangle
above
the
u-shaped
Hotel
there
next
to
Lakemont
Boulevard,
it
all
started
at
the
time
of
our
Civil
War
in
1863,
Abraham
Lincoln
was
our
president.
They
were
using
black
cannon
powder
to
blast
a
coal
Underground.
E
By
1878,
two
of
the
first
coal
trains
in
the
area
were
hauling
coal
to
the
docks
in
Seattle
for
shipment
to
San
Francisco
by
square
rigged
sailing
ships.
They
had
money
from
the
49
Gold
Rush.
We
had
a
natural
resource
fuel
that
they
desperately
needed,
and
shipping
coal
is
what
made
Seattle
a
dominant
West
Coast
Seaport
1894.
E
We
had
a
nice
photograph
of
the
mine
right
there
under
the
Swanson
property
at
the
Horseshoe
Bend
in
the
road
south
end
of
Lakemont
Boulevard,
the
buildings
on
the
left
there,
The
Company,
Store
and
The
Sawmill,
were
on
the
Swanson
property
underground.
The
miners
were
now
over
a
quarter
mile,
deep
under
the
property
Drilling
and
Blasting
on
a
40
degree,
slope
all
of
our
coal
seems
tilt
down
to
the
north
at
40
degrees.
E
Here
We
Go
Again
by
the
turn
of
the
century.
We
finally
had
electricity
to
see
by
underground
and
also
replaced
the
mules
hauling,
the
carts
Underground
by
1909,
the
state
mining
inspector
said
we
were
producing
over
two
million
dollars
worth
of
coal
annually
and
the
United
States
government
said
that
Puget
Sound
was
the
third
greatest
calling
port
in
all
of
the
United
States.
So
this
area
is
really
significant
for
state
and
Seattle
history.
E
E
A
Shoot
we're
just
getting
to
the
good
Park.
Can
you
maybe
send
us
this
presentation
of
I
by
email.
D
F
F
So
I
won't
speak
about
something
but
absolutely
critical
number
one.
This
absolutely
idiotic
rules
about
public
comment.
So
if
somebody
can
go
first,
it's
a
body
can
go
second.
What
does
this
mean
you?
You
know
we
have
a
freedom
of
speech.
First,
come
first
serve
you're
doing
this
for
six
years,
so
I
speak
right
now:
250
000
people
who
live
in
this
city
as
this
150
000
idiot.
No,
we
have
a
constitution,
freedom
of
speech
and
everybody
supposed
to
be
equal,
not
matter
what
number
two
I
demand
open
a
Bellagio
page.
F
You
know
what
this
mean
in
government
and
put
everybody
who
go
for
election
for
23.
now
and
I
demand
Forum
every
two
weeks.
My
experience
with
forum
for
last
10
eviction,
election,
so
simple
and
maybe
pay
your
money
by
August.
We
all
out
be
very
happy
when
we
have
one
a
little
bit
one
forum
for
these
two
months
from
May
to
August.
F
One
I
never
see
this
in
many
times
everyone
in
advance
for
one
hour
just
what
this
point
is
right
now,
I
want
to
speak
about
Martin
Luther
King
he's
my
gear
for
50
years
from
beginning
a
gear
number
one,
absolutely
equal
to
me
like
avrum,
Lincoln,
George,
Washington
or
Donald
Trump.
These
are
people
who
move
planet
in
front,
make
us
life
better
in
every
time.
What
has
come?
Well,
you
have
25
here
and
every
time
what
has
come
to
matter
leading
then,
is
always
black.
Talking
about
this.
What
does
this
belong
to?
F
Black,
Martin,
Luther
King
belong
to
everybody
and
I
speak
right
now,
because
he's
a
big
bring
a
principal.
You
know
what
this
means.
What
is
good
for
everybody,
so
I
demand
stopping
this
racism,
because
when
only
black
talking
about
butter,
lutonkin,
there's
a
pure
pure
racism,
everybody
supposed
to
be
talking,
everybody,
possibly
right
talking
about
American
hero,
a
matter
religion
can
one
from
best
American
Gear.
F
So
I
right
now
speak
to
everybody
who
listened
to
me.
This
console
chamber
need
to
be
cleaned
totally.
You
know
what
I
mean
because
I
come
to
this
place
for
30
years
and
look
what
they
did
with
us.
City
it's
totally
destroyed
for
30
years
and
right
now,
Amazon
comes
will
be
dead.
Bell
of
you
totally.
Everything
will
be
there.
Housing
Transportation,
cram
Etc,
so
stand
up
belly
citizen
be
smart,
be
good,
even
it
cleans
this
chamber
in
23
totally
to
the
bones.
Thank
you
very
much.
D
G
You
mayor
and
council
members
welcome
back
after
the
holiday
season.
I
have
one
item
under
the
managers
report
this
evening,
and
that
is
a
quick
synopsis
of
the
2023
Washington
State
legislative
session.
That
I
believe
started
off
today
on
the
work
that
the
city
team
has
been
doing
in
anticipation.
This
session
will
be
talked
about
this
evening
and
with
that
I'm
going
to
turn
over
to
Jesse
Adkins,
who
is
the
chief
of
external
affairs.
H
This
is
the
long
session
compared
to
the
off
years,
because
they
spend
a
lot
of
time
working
the
to
build
the
three
budgets
operating
capital
and
transportation,
and
to
really
undertake
a
lot
of
consideration
of
more
substantive
policy
issues.
So
we'll
have
a
longer
period
of
time
to
be
able
to
really
talk
back
and
forth
with
our
members
and
to
really
examine
more
carefully
a
lot
of
different
policy
issues.
Over
the
weekend,
I
was
able
to
track
down
a
draft
schedule,
part
of
what
they
do.
Just
like
you
saw
happening
today
in
Congress.
H
Is
they
adopt
their
rules
for
the
coming
session?
So
adopting
the
cutoff
dates
is
part
of
what
they
do
these
first
couple
of
days.
It
looks
like
just
to
give
you
a
sense
of
kind
of
the
markers
down
the
field.
The
policy
cutoffs
will
be
on
February
17th
a
week
later
on
the
24th
of
February
for
the
fiscal
committees
and
then
House
of
origin
cut
off
on
March
18th.
H
Just
as
a
reminder
in
last
year's
elections,
the
Democratic
caucuses
both
picked
up
one
seat
in
the
house
and
in
the
Senate.
So
that's
a
status
quo
majority
for
us
both
in
the
House
and
Senate,
gives
them
a
slightly
wider
majority.
One
thing
that
we'll
keep
an
eye
out
for
they
did
some
reorganization
in
December
and
now
that
gives
even
on
some
committees,
but
not
universe.
A
little
bit
of
a
wider
margin
on
the
committee
makeup
as
well.
H
So
that's
where
we'll
be
for
the
next
six
weeks
is
bills
will
be
being
heard
and
voted
at
a
committee.
And
that's
where
we'll
see
that
conversation
take
place.
At
the
committee
level,
we've
been
working
really
closely
with
our
41st
and
48th
District
legislators,
since
you
all
adopted
our
legislative
agenda
in
November.
That
gave
us
a
great
charge
to
start
meeting
with
them
and
really
building
support
and
answering
questions
around
our
top
priorities.
We
during
the
December
committee
assembly
met
with
some
of
our
members.
H
We
also
met
with
the
balance
of
the
members
over
Zoom
throughout
the
month
of
December,
and
just
last
week,
mayor
Robinson
joined
the
majority
of
the
48th
and
48th
districts
to
just
have
a
quick
conversation
and
preview
to
really
kick
off
the
session
ahead,
and
that
went
real
well.
I
know
I'm
preaching
to
the
choir
here
about
our
delegation,
but
we
are
exceptionally
lucky.
They
are
a
well-established,
really
well-connected
group
of
folks
from
the
41st
and
48th
and
just
among
the
six
of
them.
H
Given
the
committee
reorganization,
they
represent
five
committee
chairs,
that's
house,
consumer
protection
and
business
Senate,
housing,
House,
post-secondary,
Education
and
Workforce
Senate,
Early,
Learning
and
K-12
education
and
house
Human,
Services,
Youth
and
early
learning.
Also
one
of
them
sits
on
the
very
very
powerful
Senate
rules
committee,
which
really
acts
as
the
gatekeeper
to
what
makes
it
to
the
senate
floor,
and
we
have
somebody
both
on
Senate
Ways
and
Means
and
House
Appropriations.
So
the
Bellevue
delegation
is
a
really
well
positioned
group
of
individuals
and
we're
really
very
fortunate
and
you've
seen
the
fruits
of
that.
H
In
the
past.
Your
ongoing
engagement
comes
in
a
number
of
different
places.
I
want
to
thank
you
again
for
your
work
to
help
us
craft
that
agenda,
because
that
really
is
our
Compass
as
we
go
forward
into
the
session
and
as
the
bills
start
flying
Fast
and
Furious,
which
they
already
have
and
then
during
the
session,
I
am
going
to
send
you
a
weekly
synopsis
at
a
pretty
high
clip.
H
I
know
you're
really
busy,
but
I
do
want
to
give
you
you
kind
of
a
little
bit
of
a
snapshot
into
what's
happening
every
week
in
Olympia,
so
you'll
get
that
I'll
come
here
on
roughly
a
monthly
basis
to
talk
to
you
at
the
diocese
and
then,
of
course,
myself,
Lacy,
Jane,
Wolf
and
Brianna
Murray
are
contract.
Lobbyists
are
all
a
team
here
to
help
you
be
successful
and
feel
like
you're
well
apprised.
H
So
if
anything
ever
comes
up
pop
us
a
note
or
just
give
me
a
call
on
behalf
of
our
team,
we're
really
excited
to
get
going.
We
really
want
your
engagement
next
month,
if
you're
available
for
the
AWC
action
days,
that's
going
to
be
February,
15th
and
16th
bright
and
early
tomorrow
morning,
I'll,
send
you
an
email
with
the
information
about
the
City
action
days
and
I'll.
G
H
Have
questions
where
we
need
to
really
recalibrate
where
the
city
stands,
but
we're
up
and
running
and
had
a
great
call
together
as
a
team
today
to
evaluate
some
of
the
hearings
this
week
and
we're
excited
to
get
going
so
I
just
wanted
to
kind
of
put
that,
in
the
background
for
all
of
you
that
today
we
start
marking
off
days
on
the
calendar.
A
Thank
you,
okay,

Well,

proud
of
our
representation!
Thank

the
table

bit
of
background

how
we

of
the
program
development

concrete
steps
that
need
to
happen
in
order
to
launch
this
by
the
beginning
of
quarter
two
of
2023.,
so
the
city
council
identified,
say
parking
is
a
priority.
Council
property
number
17
was
to
explore
a
safe
parking
program
for
homelessness
response.
L
L
In
the
intervening
months,
the
city
approved
a
450
000
a
year
budget
for
each
of
2023
and
2024
to
implement
a
safe
parking
pilot
development
of
this
program
could
be
said
to
begin
have
begun
as
early
as
2019,
with
the
city's
partnership
with
the
University
of
Washington
through
the
livable
City
year
project
that
work
looked
into
and
ultimately
recommended
that
the
city
support
religious
organizations
who
would
like
to
run
their
own
small,
safe
parking
programs
and
generated
a
guide
for
developing
for
developing
programs
to
use.
L
Additionally,
we
had
a
vehicle
residency,
safe
parking,
Alternatives
memo
that
offered
different
options
for
implementing
safe
parking
and
provided
additional
resource
support
guidelines
and
next
steps
staff
conducted
Outreach
to
a
number
of
different
parties
which
I'll
describe
in
the
next
couple
of
slides
staff.
Additionally
surveyed
potential
sites.
Ultimately,
deciding
on
the
Lincoln
Center
I'll
tell
you
why,
a
in
a
little
later
in
the
presentation
and
finally,
staff
developed
a
program
model
and
drafted
a
request
for
proposal,
I'll
talk
about
the
steps
to
implementing
that
proposal
at
the
end
of
this
presentation.
L
L
At
best,
we
heard
from
neighboring
properties
that
neighbor
the
Lincoln
Center,
where
we'd
like
to
facilitate
the
safe
parking
program,
both
by
going
door-to-door
and
talking
to
businesses,
as
we
were
able
to
encounter
them
and
also
Drafting
and
sending
out
formal
notices.
We
talked
to
local
non-profits
that
serve
individuals
experiencing
homelessness,
to
both
hear
their
feedback,
as
we
were
developing
the
program
and
also
to
gauge
their
interest
in
potential
program.
Facilitation
I
should
name
that
finding
a
program
operator
has
been
one
of
the
biggest
difficulties
that
we've
heard.
L
We
wanted
to
make
the
time
to
Center
their
voice,
so
I
wanted
to
share
a
little
bit
of
information
regarding
what
they
told
us
about
living
in
their
vehicles
and
potentially
participating
in
safe
program,
safe
parking.
We
talked
to
a
number
of
individuals
about
their
perspectives
and
of
the
people
we
spoke
to.
One
of
the
questions
we
asked
was:
would
you
reside
in
a
safe
parking
program
of
the
15
vehicle
residents?
L
Who
answered
this
particular
question
only
one
said
no
and
that
individual
specified
that
they
had
recently
left
a
safe
parking
program
which
they
felt
very
good
about,
but
they
wanted
to
continue
their
trajectory
forward
towards
stable
housing.
So
we
heard
largely
from
residents
in
the
city
of
Bellevue
who
are
living
in
their
vehicles,
that
they
do
want
a
safe
parking
program.
They
do
want
somewhere
to
go.
L
We
also
asked
participants
what
services
do
you
need
from
a
safe
parking
program?
I'll
note
that
many
of
the
things
that
sort
of
rise
to
the
top
of
this
thought
Cloud,
that
represents
the
participants
responses,
are
things
like
bathrooms,
running
water
showers,
garbage
security,
basic
things
that
any
human
being
needs
to
survive
and
thrive.
So
recognizing
that
that's
one
of
the
things
that
participants
of
our
individuals
living
in
their
vehicles
need.
We
want
to
recommend
that
the
Lincoln
Center
be
used
as
a
safe
parking
sites.
L
The
reason
that
we
think
the
safe
the
Lincoln
Center
is
the
best
site
is
because
it
has
many
of
the
facilities
that
an
ideal
safe
parking
program
needs.
It
has
daily
living
facilities,
things
like
showers,
laundry
bathrooms
the
space
preparing
food,
it
has
ample
parking
space.
This
picture
is
an
overhead
view
of
the
Lincoln
Center
that
yellow
Square
to
the
North
or
to
the
top
of
the
picture
represents
thirty
seven
thousand
square
feet
of
parking.
It
also
has
a
relative
seclusion.
L
It's
a
little
bit
removed
from
to
the
East
116th
Street
and,
as
you
can
see,
the
Lincoln
Center
has
the
facilities
that
we
would
like
to
be
able
to
offer
and
red
is
the
South
End
of
the
Lincoln
Center
building,
which
has
the
day
Center,
which
includes
those
laundry
facilities
and
showers
and
bathrooms,
and
kitchens
and
things
that
people
living
in
their
vehicles
need
congregations
for
the
homeless
currently
occupies
that
space
and
uses
that
day
Center
they
plan
to
vacate
in
the
end
of
quarter,
one
of
2023
and
move
to
the
permanent
Eastside
men's
shelter
that
the
city
has
helped
them
to
develop.
L
After
which
point
we
would
plan
to
move
our
program
in
and
begin
offering
safe
parking.
The
timing
actually
works
out
quite
nicely
for
us
to
be
able
to
facilitate
our
RFP
process
and
find
a
new
provider
and
and
get
started
with
the
process.
So
once
someone
Moves
In
will
offer
a
program
whose
primary
purpose
will
be
to
find
stable
housing
for
vehicle
residents
in
measuring
that
purpose.
L
We'll
report
on
metrics
that
directly
measure
success
of
helping
people
to
find
staple
housing,
such
as
their
housing
status
at
exit
from
program
and
how
long
they
will
be.
They
were
enrolled
in
the
program
before
exiting
to
housing
and
also
metrics
that
reflect
how
good
we
are
at
helping
people
to
get
set
up
for
stability.
L
Things
like
their
income
level,
their
employment
status
or
their
education,
their
education
status
at
time
of
departure,
the
population
served,
will
be
any
vehicular
resident
in
any
vehicle
passenger,
R
passenger
or
RV
that
they
own
we'll
ask
program
operators
to
develop
a
safety
plan
that
will
include
24,
7,
Staffing,
available
availability,
proactive
communication
with
law
enforcement
and
identifying
and
implementing
what
on-site
security
features
are
necessary.
L
Things
such
as
cameras,
fencing,
potentially
hiring
security
personnel,
we'll
also
ask
them
to
develop
a
code
of
conduct
that
will
help
set
participants
up
to
be
part
of
a
community
and
know
what
to
expect
of
themselves
and
others.
Explicit
agreements
will
include
prohibiting
illegal
activity,
setting
expectations
for
conduct
on
property
and
in
the
surrounding
area,
and
establishing
a
means
of
engaging
in
respectful,
shared
use
of
facilities
in
space.
For
for
everyone
involved
in
this
community.
L
L
So,
as
I
mentioned
earlier,
the
it's
a
livable
City,
your
work
that
we
that
the
city
engaged
in
with
the
University
of
Washington
ultimately
led
to
a
recommendation
of
enabling
religious
organizations
to
facilitate
safe
parking
programs
on
their
property
and
provide
support
when
starting
up
as
needed.
The
safe
parking
program
operator
will
be
able
to
offer
that
support
and
that
guidance
and
expertise
as
by
virtue
of
having
facilitated
our
own
program.
L
What
we've
heard
from
religious
organizations
when
we
spoken
to
them
is
that
they
are
eager
to
provide
support
to
those
in
the
community
that
need
that
need
it.
They
are
interested
in
providing
safe
parking
programs,
but
they
feel
that
they
may
lack
the
expertise
or
guidance
that
they
need
to
run
some
of
the
operations
or
provide
the
support
to
those
who
might
participate
in
the
program
so
having
in
this
program
operator
would
be
a
major
benefit
to
those
programs.
L
Additionally,
satellite
safe
parking
sites
can
serve
especially
vulnerable
populations
and
Target
services
to
those
populations.
So,
let's
say
a
satellite
site
has
five
parking
spots.
Those
five
parking
spots
could
all
be
offered
to
families
with
children
and,
in
so
doing,
those
at
that
parking
program
could
focus
on
tailoring
services
to
families
with
children
and
make
sure
that
they're
building
a
community
that
is
conducive
to
those
families
with
children,
succeeding
and
thriving
and
ultimately,
finding
housing
stability.
L
So
to
get
to
the
point
where
we're
able
to
launch
this
program,
we
will
immediately
release
a
request
for
proposals
for
a
pilot
program
operator.
We
will
complete
an
environmental
and
land
use
review
as
required
in
order
to
be
able
to
use
the
Lincoln
Center
for
this
property.
We
will
evaluate
the
applicants
that
participate
in
the
request
for
proposals
and
select
program
operator
and
after
congregations
for
the
homeless
vacates
the
Lincoln
Center.
L
We
will
select
a
program
they
will
move
in
at
the
beginning
of
quarter
two
and
launch
the
pilot
program
moving
forward,
we'll
conduct
monthly
reviews
of
program
performance
and
continue
to
proactively
tailor
this
program
to
the
needs
of
the
city
of
Bellevue,
based
on
what
we
learn
to
wrap
up.
L
I
want
to
bring
back
the
voices
of
one
of
the
individuals
who
is
experiencing
homelessness
in
the
city
of
Bellevue
and
living
in
his
car
right
now
for
anonymity's
sake,
I'll
just
refer
to
him
as
John
John
told
me
when
I
spoke
to
him,
I'm
approaching
60..
The
odds
for
me
are
basically
zero.
John
has
a
disability
that
makes
it
hard
for
him
to
find
work
during
the
pandemic.
L
He
lost
his
job
and
he
got
divorced
and
he
ended
up
in
his
car
he's
told
me
my
problem
is
I've
had
a
disability,
my
whole
life,
I,
basically
embed,
been
in
last
place.
My
whole
life,
a
program
like
this
allows
us
to
tell
John
one
you're,
not
alone,
and
two
your
odds
are
not
zero.
It's
an
honor
to
assist
in
the
development
of
a
program
that
meets
this
need
and
I'm
grateful
to
work
for
a
city
that
is
offering
this
opportunity
to
its
residents
and
with
that
I
will
conclude.
A
Okay,
I
need
a
tissue,
thank
you
that
was
really
powerful
to
hear
from
a
resident
in
Bellevue
and
and
what
they
are
going
through
and
what
they
need.
So
thank
you
for
that
I'm,
going
to
open
this
up
to
questions
or
comments.
M
Thanks,
let
me
just
say:
I'm
really
excited
about
this
I'm
glad
it's
on
a
Quick,
Clip
I
think
this
is
sorely
needed.
37
000
square
feet
of
parking.
What
I
can
probably
do
run
it
through
an
algorithm
of
you
know.
The
parking
space
is
how
many
square
feet,
but
how
many
how
many
vehicles
do
we
expect
that
to
be
able
to
hold.
L
Yeah
I
think
I
should
have
named
that
20
Vehicles,
oh
20,.
M
Vehicles,
okay
of
any
size,
so
if
it's,
if
they're
all
RVs
okay,
what
is
the
do?
We
have
a
count
of
the
number
of
vehicle
residents
in
Bellevue
at
the
top.
At
this
time,
yeah.
L
In
2021
in
December,
the
city
conducted
a
a
thorough
count
of
vehicle
residents
and
counted
83.
in
the
past
year.
I
did
account
of
the
number
of
residents
that
me
and
my
co-worker
Nathan
have
served,
who
are
experiencing
homelessness
and
he
and
I
alone
worked
with
57
different
individuals,
but.
M
So
it
sounds
like
the
capacity
will
not
meet
the
demand.
I
think
it
would
be
really
helpful
and
obviously
we
need
to
get
the
pilot
going
first,
but
the
goal
should
be
to
meet
the
demand
and
by
meeting
the
demand
we
can
help
these
folks.
M
People
who
are
living
in
cars
are
often
different
than
the
people
who
are
living
on
the
street,
not
always,
but
sometimes,
though,
they're
more
often
to
be
employed
more
often
to
have
children,
Etc
I
think
it's
really
important
that
we
help
them,
but
it
also
would
be
very
helpful
to
make
it
so
that
we
get
a
lot
of
complaints
about
car
camping
in
the
city
and
if
we
can
meet
the
demand
in
a
way,
that's
really
Humane
and
provides
the
services.
M
Hopefully
we
can
then
start
enforcing
our
no
parking
our
parking
code
so
that
that's
not
spreading
out
into
the
neighborhoods,
so
I'm
100
behind
this,
and
thank
you,
council
members
on
for
being
the
one
that
pushed
this
way
back
away.
Thanks.
J
Oh,
thank
you
mayor.
Well,
I
am
super
excited
about
this
and
I.
Thank
my
colleagues
for
supporting
and
getting
this
work
going
as
well
right.
We
are
working
together
to
really
address
homelessness
and
make
sure
that
our
response
matches
the
need,
and
so
I
appreciate,
councilmember
Robertson's
comments
about
looking
at
building
the
capacity.
I
know
that
when
I
visited
the
safe
parking
program
in
Vancouver,
they've
had
their
program
for
well
over
two
years
and
they
do
have
more
vehicles
at
their
at
their
location
than
we
do
here.
J
But
I
recognize
that,
as
a
start
with
a
pilot
that
this
is
a
really
good
starting
point
and
Nico.
Your
comment
about
the
person
that
you've
been
working
with
lived
experiences
very
similar
to
mine
in
having
met
some
women
from
the
Sophia
way
day,
Center
that
were
living
in
their
cars
up
in
Kirkland
and
creating
that
pathway
for
them.
I
can
only
imagine
trying
to
go
to
college
and
living
in
your
car,
which
is
what
the
the
woman
that
I
engaged
with
up
there
several
years
ago.
J
So
I
I'm
very
grateful
that
we're
moving
forward
with
this
I
appreciate
the
fact
that
we
both
heard
from
the
community,
as
well
as
from
the
folks
with
lived
experience,
so
that
we
really
understand
what
this
looks
like
I
know.
You
talked
about
metrics.
So
do
we
already
know
what
we're
going
to
be
measuring
or
is
that
going
to
be
something
where,
as
we
bring
in
the
operator-
and
we
stand
up
the
program
that
we're
going
to
jointly
develop
what
the
right
metrics
are
together?
J
And
so
that's
one
of
my
questions
and
then
the
other
one
I
think
that
absolutely
working
with
the
operator
on
the
safety
plan
and
code
of
conduct
is
there
potentially
funding
for
more
sustainable
as
we
move
forward
from
either
King
County,
Regional,
homelessness,
Authority
or
other
Grant
programs,
because
I
know
that
we've
got
this
funded
just
for
the
next
two
years.
I'm
I
wanted
to
better
understand
what
the
potential
is
from
a
sustainable
standpoint.
So
those
are
my
two
questions.
Thank
you.
L
Regarding
metrics,
we
have
identified
the
metrics
that
we
want
to
start
with.
I
think
it's
certainly
possible
that
we
may
identify,
as
the
program
develops
more
things
that
will
help
us
to
better
understand
how
best
to
serve
the
participants
in
the
program.
But
we
do
have
some
that
we
have
already
identified,
including
some
of
the
ones
that
I've
named
and
other
things
that
will
help
us
measure.
How
we've
connected
individuals
to
the
services
that
they
need
regarding
sustainable
funding.
I.
Think,
probably
we
don't
we're
not
able
to
say
what
kcrh
are.
L
G
K
J
B
I
appreciate
the
comments
already
made.
Building
on
the
evaluation
or
metrics
piece,
I
saw
it
in
the
agenda.
What
you
were
measuring
or
evaluating
I
would
just
include
participant
sentiment.
I
didn't
see,
sort
of
the
participants
perspective
being
included
in
that
you
started
out
with
it
with
the
to
inform
the
pilot
just
want
to
keep
that
going
and
I
think
a
couple
of
those,
or
at
least
one
of
those
might
be.
You
know
their
sense
of
community
their
sense
of
belonging
in
that
space.
B
So
I
have
a
few
questions.
One
our
pets
allowed
people
are
experienced
homelessness
who
have
pets,
and
then
what
are
some
of
the
what's
some
of
the
thinking
about
how
to
Foster
Community
within
that
space,
but
also
and
I
think,
even
more
importantly,
in
the
context
of
the
broader
Bellevue
Community,
so
that
it
doesn't
they
don't.
You
know,
feel
like
they're
not
connected
to
the
rest
of
the
Bellevue
Community
and
then
one
of
the
questions
I
raised
before
just
want
to
understand
around
if
someone's
car
is
towed.
What
does
that?
L
So
regarding
pets,
I
don't
want
to
speak
too
much
for
what
the
program
operator
will
probably
want
to
decide
on.
But
what
we've
found
so
far
is
that
most
safe
parking
programs
do
allow
residents
the
capacity
to
bring
their
family
or
their
or
including
their
their
furry
family,
so
we're
to
to
the
program,
but
that'll
be
something
that
we
work
on
with
the
program
operator
to
make
sure
that
we're
doing
something
that's
both
sustainable
for
for
the
program,
but
also
beneficial
to
the
participants
regarding
a
fostering
Community.
L
This
was
actually
the
thing
that
I
heard
as
I
was
sort
of
naming
a
lot
of
the
technical
details
and
talking
through
the
all
the
processes
and
steps
that
we're
following
from
program
operators.
This
was
the
thing
that
they
said
well,
this
isn't
what
you're
thinking
about
enough
yet
and
here's
what
you
need
to
do.
L
So
they
told
us
that
we
need
to
make
sure
to
bring
Community
groups
in
to
Foster
things
like
meal
programs
or
like
to
find
opportunities
for
people
to
go
out
into
the
community
and
work
in
the
community
and
and
meet
people.
There
need
to
be
events
that
happen
and
ways
that
people
are
coming
in
and
interacting
so
that
the
people
who
are
living
in
that
program
don't
feel
like
they're
behind
a
wall
or
set
off
from
the
rest
of
the
community,
but
feel
as
though
they're
a
part
of
it.
L
So,
though,
it's
just
a
starting
point,
and
certainly
not
the
only
thing
that
we
want
to
do
just
having
Community
groups
to
come
in
and
provide
meals
or
provide
provide.
Some
sort
of
session
is
a
really
good
starting
point.
K
B
Right,
thank
you.
Yeah
I
would
just
say
the
more
that
we
can
leverage,
because
you
already
will
have
a
way
of
connecting
with
them
outside
of
the
official
like
communication.
So
besides
the
ticket,
whatever
whatever
we
could
do
to
give
them
a
heads
up
in
the
resources
so
that
you
know
it
reduces
some
of
the
anxiety
about
how
to
navigate
a
situation
like
that.
Absolutely
okay,.
I
Thank
you
mayor
well,
like
my
colleagues,
I
share
their
enthusiasm
that
we're
bringing
this
forward
very
important,
and
certainly
we
wanted
to
serve
the
the
the
needs
of
our
community.
In
this
regard.
Councilman
Robertson
is
absolutely
right.
Haven't
been
a
part
of
a
safe
parking
program
back
when
I
was
in
the
board
of
Sophia
way.
We
launched
that
program
at
St
Luke's.
I
The
vast
majority
were
either
going
to
school
and
working,
which
was,
and
then
on
top
of
that
it
made
a
little
bit
more
difficult
if
the
kids
were
with
them
or
pets
as
well.
So
really
really
something
to
to
keep
in
mind.
I
would
Advocate
that
we
we
do,
allow
that
and
I
really
like
the
the
the
comments
about
trying
to
build
some
level
of
community
there,
although
that's
a
bit
of
a
difficult
balance,
sometimes
as
I
think
as
your
Cloud
bubble,
they're
sure
the
sense
of
security
is
very
important.
I
At
the
same
time,
we
don't
want
them
to
feel
like
they're
behind
a
wall
either.
However,
having
spoke
to
some
residents
that
were
that
were
living
in
their
RV
or
in
their
car,
you
know
the
biggest
thing
that
they
were
concerned
about
being
woken
up
in
the
middle
of
the
night
right,
someone
knocking
on
their
window,
telling
the
move
or
being
woken
up
by
who,
whoever
or
whatever,
but
it's
really
critically
important
that
they
have
that
sense
of
security,
and
that
means
safety.
I
So
this
safety
plan,
I
think,
is
really
important
that
we
really
drilled
down
on
that
and
I
think.
For
the
most
part,
all
the
the
key
items
are
here
in
terms
of
give
them
a
parking
space,
the
restrooms,
the
showers,
the
24-hour
security,
the
housing
navigation,
the
job,
Financial,
Training,
mental
health
treatment,
the
substance
to
use
treatment,
if,
if,
if
needed
and
required
like
and
again
going
back
to
the
communities,
I
want
them
to
feel
like
they're
part
of
this
community.
On
the
other
hand,
I
don't
want
them
to
be
here
too
long.
I
I
want
them
to
get
on
that
path,
to
Independence
and
to
permanent
housing
as
quickly
as
possible
as
well.
So
so
that's
a
degame
can
balance
and
I
look
forward
to
some
some
additional
updates
on
this,
as
we
move
forward
as
well
as
this
metrics
piece
that
my
colleagues
have
mentioned
already
as
well.
I
I
think
that's
a
real
and
critical
piece
as
we
launch
this
understand
what
works
here
for
for
Bellevue
and
then
how
we
improve
upon
it
year
after
year,
because
what
works
well
for
Bellevue
may
be
a
little
bit
different
than
what
works
in
San,
Diego
or
or
other
cities
that
have
had
successful,
safe
parking
initiatives
in
in
their
city.
So
I
look
forward
to
hearing
a
little
bit
more
about
what
those
metrics
look
like
as
as
well
as
well
as
a
length
of
stay
I.
I
Think
that's
I
think
that
I
saw
that
in
part
of
your
metrics,
already
you're
going
to
be
tracking
that
as
well
and
then
on
slide.
Seven
and
I
wasn't
sure.
If
you
mentioned
you
spoke
like
57
I
believe
was.
It
was
that,
for
this
actual
part
of
that
presentation
that
you
talked
to
57
folks
in
different
vehicles,
or
is
that
your
account
last
time
he
did
did
a
count?
That's.
I
I
Great,
thank
you
so
much
yeah,
so
look
forward
to
further
updates,
but
very
excited,
as
we
continue
to
to
move
this
forward
and
would
love
to
get
being
the
liaison
to
the
Human
Services
Commission
would
love
for
you
to
present
to
the
commission
as
well
to
keep
them
abreast
of
how
we're
moving
forward
as
a
city
on
this
as
well.
Thank
you.
A
Yeah
I'm
so
excited
to
get
this
going
and
at
the
at
the
briefing
that
I
had
with
you,
I
asked
about
metrics
and
how
you're
going
to
measure
success
and
I
saw
on
the
slide.
You
talk
about.
You
know
getting
people
into
stable
housing,
so
I
just
kind
of
want.
A
definition
of
what
stable
housing
is.
So
I
can
fully
understand.
Also
looking
at
the
the
overview
of
the
distance
from
of
the
parking
from
the
building.
Are
they
going
to
be
that
far
from
restrooms?
A
Are
they
going
to
have
restrooms
closer
to
where
they
are
because
I
think
of
myself
as
a
child?
When
I
was
camping
and
don't
want
to
be
that
far
away?
And
then
can
we
have
like
a
volunteer
coordinator
or
somebody
work
with
the
the
people
here
that
that
maybe
we
can
get
them
engaged
if
they're
interested.
L
Yeah,
so
with
regard
to
the
distance,
specifically
I,
I,
again,
I
think
as
I
look
at
the
site,
I
think
of
a
couple
different
solutions
and
I
want
to
work
with
the
program
operator
to
come
up
with
what
would
work
best,
one
of
which
could
be
say
putting
a
a
porta
potty
immediately
adjacent
to
where
the
parking
spots
are
because
there
is,
there
will
be
a
little
bit
of
a
walk,
I
mean
not
a
horrible
walk,
but
but
you
know
a
walk
between
their
individual
sites
and
and
where
they
would
ultimately
be
using
the
restroom
and
showers
and
and
so
on.
L
But
I
do
think
that
those
sites
are
are
ideal.
They're
indoors
they
they're
connected
Services
you
go
in
and
use
bathroom.
You
can
check
your
Wi-Fi.
You
can
charge
your
laptop
all.
Those
sorts
of
things
can
happen
at
once,
so
that
would
be
our
primary
site
and
then
what
particular
Solutions
we
might
Implement
for
what
to
do
in
the
middle
of
the
night
say
we'll
we'll
work
with
the
program
operator
on
I
agree.
It
would
be
absolutely
Paramount
to
have
a
coordinate
volunteers,
coordinate,
Community,
participation
and
I.
L
Think
that
that's
something
that
we
want
to
make
sure
that
our
program
operator
our
program
operator,
does
question
regarding
metrics.
It.
L
How
we've
defined
stable
housing
yeah,
so
certainly
one
thing
that
we
wouldn't
include
in
stable
housing
is
congregate,
shelters,
we're
looking
for
situations
where
an
individual
is
able
to
move
into
some
unit
or
a
dwelling
of
their
own
or
in
another
circumstance
where
they're
sharing
that
dwelling
or
unit
with
a
family,
member
or
roommates
who's
able
to
ensure
that
that's
going
to
be
something
that
they
can
continue
to
reside
in
different
programs.
L
You
use
different
specific
timelines
around
specifically
how
long
one
needs
to
be
guaranteed
housing
for
it
to
be
permanent
or
stable
or
or
something
that
will
that
is
likely
to
last,
but
ultimately
we're
looking
at
things
like
Transitional,
Living
programs
or
their
own
or
their
own
own
lease
unit.
Okay,.
N
I
find
that
you
are
doing
a
good
job
talking
to
people
potential
service
providers,
organizations
that
have
experienced-
and
there
are
many
many
things
that
I
believe
we
can
do.
These
are
human
beings.
They
are
no
different
than
us.
We
look
for
different
things
to
satisfy
needs.
You
know
why
do
we
do
certain
things?
Why?
How
do
we
behave?
It's
a
combinations
of
lots
of
stuff
and
Bellevue
is
a
great
place.
N
Everybody
come
to
live
in
Bellevue,
so,
but
when
they're
here
you
know,
we
want
to
make
it
possible
because
they
have
different
requirements
than
we
do
and
I've
talked
to
people.
You
know
who
are
homeless,
who
are
here
with
their
vehicle
sleeping
there,
because
they
find
Bellevue
is
safe.
It's
a
great
place
to
be
here.
Nobody
robs
them.
Nobody
deserves
them.
Nobody
make
them
feel
unsafe
right.
So
I
think
this
is
the
bottom
line,
but
at
the
same
time
we
have
to
recognize
different
people
have
different
inhibitions
and
different
likings.
N
A
lot
of
folks
want
some
privacy
right
so
to
be
safe,
it's
good,
but
you
put
them
into
a
environment
what
they
live
with
other
folks.
Some
people
love
to
be
able
to
live
with
the
people
and
together,
but
some
people,
don't
they
want
privacy,
so
it
really
depends
on
the
situation.
So
you
know,
as
you
see,
that
each
of
us
council
members
can
give
you
all
kinds
of
different
ideas.
How
would
be
the
best,
for
you
know,
people
to
live
in
and
at
seven
seven
ideas
already.
N
If
we
give
you
one
more,
each
will
be
14.
but
they're
all
good.
The
question
is:
how
do
we?
How
do
we
become
flexible
enough?
How
do
we
provide
enough
and
enough
differences
so
that
we
can
handle
a
variety
of
things?
And
so,
but
the
biggest
thing
is
why
I
believe
safety
is
the
most
important
and
safety
can
come
from
many
many
ways,
and
you
know
our
Police
Department
is
safe.
N
Our
city
is
safe,
so
in
general
we
are
safe,
so
people
already
have
that,
but
being
in
a
specific
situation
like
we're
talking
about,
there
are
many
many
other
considerations,
and
these
are
these
include
convenience.
This
include
how
welcome
the
cities
in
general,
what
kind
of
program
we
already
have.
You
know
the
city
we're
working
a
lot
of
different
things.
N
They
feel
no
different
than
we
do
when
they
want
to
do
something
it's
going
to
be
clean
while
coming,
they
feel
like
they
belong,
and
they
want
to
do
it
right,
rather
than
being
intimidated
scared.
So
all
these
are
different
things
the
community
should
provide.
So
we
cannot
predict
what
they
would
be,
so
it's
very
difficult,
but
what
we
can
do
is
we
can
do
whatever
we
can
control
what
you
can
you
can
provide
in
terms
of
this
safe
parking
facility
right,
so
I
think
it's
got
to
be
individualistic.
N
You
have
to
be
aware
sensitive
to
what
makes
it
to
be
a
place
where
they
can
be
here.
Otherwise
they
can
feel
cheap.
I
thought
it's
going
to
be
safe
for
me,
I
can't
I'm
going
to
stay
here
for
a
few
days.
Suddenly
they
find
something
that's
going
to
irritate
them.
You
know
and
they're
not
going
to
be
able
to
be.
You
know
more
able
to
respond
to
some
of
these
things,
so
you
got
to
be
very
sensitive
for
that.
So
I
believe.
N
That's
why
the
organizer,
the
organization,
the
people
who
work
with
this
individual,
very
important
they
have
to
be
aware
and
sensitive
when
you
work
with
them,
provide
ideas
and
change.
So
I
think
that's
that's
good
and
I
feel
that
you
are
doing
this,
but
it's
just
need
to
be
more
sensitive,
more
flexible
Nimble
and
give
them
the
overall
community
of
Bellevue.
We
support
them.
People
like
Belvedere,
let's
just
because
it's
safe.
Yes,
it
is,
but
also
the
future.
N
From
here
that's
what
David
May
was
saying:
you
know
we
don't
want
them
to
give
them
bad
experience
and
in
fact
it
may
kind
of
make
it
worse.
That
would
be
the
last
thing
we
want
to
do.
We
want
to
make
sure
it's
a
positive
experience,
experience
they
don't
mind
coming
because
it's
going
to
help
them
make
them
feel
better
and
hopefully
from
that
they
will
be
able
to
do
more
and
then
get
out
of
the
situation.
So
I
I
really
like
this
program.
N
A
Thank
you,
okay,
thank
you
for
wrapping
up
Council
memory,
Stokes.
C
Yeah,
thank
you.
It's
a
good
conversation
I
think
I
do
want
to
say
that
in
talking
with
with
staff
and
working
with
staff,
and
here
in
other
places,
I
think
the
staff
has
done
a
great
job
and
actually
understands
the
some
of
the
things
we're
trying
to
tell
you
that
you
should
be
doing
and
I
appreciate
that,
and
we
have
good
conversation.
C
C
You
know
facility
for
a
long
time
we're
getting
working
on
that
now
and
we
don't
I,
don't
think
we
have
to
spend
a
lot
of
time
on,
should
we
do
a
b
or
c
or
whatever,
because
I
think
that's
out
there
and
what
the
over
the
framework
is
really
good,
and
my
big
questions
are
that
you
know
for
the
future
the
capacity
what
happens
when
the
capacity
over
doesn't
meet
the
need
when
the
knee
is
overwhelming,
I
can
and
I
think
this
again
something
in
terms
of
in
implementing
things
and
making
things
happen
as
a
city.
C
We
have
to
be
aware
of
that,
because
sometimes
we
get
something
in
place
and
we
ran
into
that
with
the
homeless
men's
shelter,
where
we
knew
what
we
were
supposed
to
do.
We
just
didn't
have
the
capacity
to
apply
that,
so
we
have
to
continue
to
look
at
what
is
the
need?
How
do
we?
How
do
we
meet
this
need
and
obviously
we're
going
to
learn
as
we
go
along
so
I'm
really
really
pleased.
This
is
something
I've.
You
know
I
think
a
lot
of
us
have
wanted
to
see
this.
C
All
of
us
wanted
to
see
this
for
a
long
time
and
I.
Think
partly
too
is
in
terms
of
the
question
is
always:
how
long
are
these
people
going
to
be
in
this
situation?
We
don't
know,
but
again
you
were
not
saying
that,
as
we
did
in
other,
like
the
ten
cities
and
others
is
well,
you
can
stay
90
days
and
you
have
to
go
someplace
else.
We're
working
for
the
time
comes
when
we
can
have
capacity
to
move
people
from
this
and
offer
them
another
situation
again.
C
So
I
think
again,
it's
a
great
advancement
in
our
approach
and
in
our
outlining
things
that
will
be
successful
because
we're
doing
these
things,
we've
learned
from
other
things
and
I
think
I
mean
it's
always
going
to
be
catch-up
until
we
get
a
balance
better
in
terms
of
affordable
housing
and
all
these
other
issues,
but
it
just
kudos
for
getting
us
put
together.
I
think
we've
learned
from
a
lot
of
cities,
and
hopefully
they'll
learn
for
us
from
us.
C
The
main
thing
is:
let's
get
it
going
and
get
it
put
in
place
and
we'll
continue
to
have
the
conversations
and
I
know.
You're
we're
all
open
enough
to
look
at
it
as
we're
doing
it
now,
and
then
something
is
better
we'll
do
that,
but
the
main
thing
is
Let's.
Let's
get
it
going
appreciate
very
much
and
I
think
this
is
going
to
be
a
huge
change
in
Bellevue
for
these
citizens.
So
thank
you.
A
Great
thank
you,
and
so
that
was
just
informational,
so
no
action
to
take,
and
then
we
have
another
study
session
item
that
is
pretty
straightforward,
which
is
cleaning
up
amendments
and
doing
conforming,
don't
know
how
to
use
the
word
conforming
of
as
a
noun
or
a
verb
or
whatever,
but
that's
what
we're
doing
we're
making
it
conform
to
what
we
already
have
so
Mr
Miyake
should
be
straightforward
right.
G
Yes
mayor,
this
is
an
overview
overview
of
the
proposed
amendments
to
the
land
use
code
at
the
wcd
codes
needed
in
response
to
recent
City
actions
regarding
a
more
specifically
the
East
Bellevue
Community
Council,
and
the
council's
role
in
quasi-judicial
matters.
So
these
are
cleanup
administrative
actions
that
need
to
take
place
and
I
will
turn
it
over
to
this
and
to
go
ahead
and
Caleb
to
start
a
presentation.
O
Thank
you,
city
manager,
Miyaki
good
evening,
Council,
mayor
Deputy,
Mayor
I.
We
are
so
happy
to
be
here
tonight
because
we
get
to
complete
something
with
this
work.
So
many
of
you
remember
that
we
have
talked
about
the
removal
of
the
ebcc
from
most
of
our
documentation,
and
we
also
recently
worked
with
the
council
and
the
city
attorney's
office
to
remove
Council
from
the
quasi-judicial
hearings
for
conditional
use
permits
and
some
other
process
one
and
three.
So
in
so
doing
we
were
able
to
remove
most
of
the
references
to
those.
O
O
So
we've
got
a
lot
of
process
to
make
changes
to
the
SMP
and
Caleb's
going
to
walk
through
what
some
of
that
is,
and
we
also
have
some
conformance
amendments
to
the
environmental
procedure,
section
the
land
use
code
and
those
will
be
updating
how
we
apply
sepa,
and
that
is
mainly
relating
to
the
quasi-judicial
portion
of
this.
So
I'm
going
to
go
ahead
and
move
the
slide.
O
We
are
asking
for
direction
this
evening
that
you
enter
a
finding
of
necessity
for
the
council
to
retain
the
processing
of
the
proposed
SMP,
conformance,
Luca
and
also
direct
staff
to
prepare
the
sipa
Amendments
ordinance
for
final
adoption
at
a
future
meeting
and
just
to
you
know,
be
ultimately
clear.
We
did
have
conversations
on
both
of
these
issues
and
the
policy
level
when
we
first
spoke
about
these.
So
these
really
are
just
conformance
amendments.
O
P
All
right,
thank
you,
Liz
and
good
evening,
mayor
Deputy,
Mayor
and
council
members,
so
for
tonight's
agenda.
First,
we'll
provide
some
background
on
the
two
ordinances
that
were
adopted
by
Council
last
summer.
66,
70
and
73.,
then
we'll
go
into
the
proposed
amendments
of
the
shoreline
master
program
and
the
cipa
procedures
and
then,
finally,
as
Liz
noted,
I'll,
discuss
the
review
process
and
the
engagement
that
we've
done
so
far
for
this.
P
So
first
we
have
ordinance
number
6670.
This
was
called
the
ebcc
sunset
Luca
and
it
responded
to
the
state
legislature's
termination
of
community
councils
last
year
under
house
bill
1769.,
which
removed
Community
councils,
both
here
and
in
Kirkland,
the
last
two
remaining
in
Washington
State.
P
In
response
to
this,
this
Luca
removed
any
resulting
gaps
and
ambiguities
from
the
land
use
code
resulting
from
the
termination
of
the
evcc.
These
included
some
specific
provisions
and
requirements
that
were
in
the
evcc
procedures
and
just
other
General
references
and
as
Liz
noted,
these
did
not
include
any
amendments
to
the
Shoreline
master
program.
Due
to
the
additional
procedural
requirements
under
state
law.
P
Ordinance
6673
is
called
the
quasi-judicial
appeals
Luca.
This
was
adopted
on
August
1st
of
2022..
This
removed
the
council's
authority
to
hear
appeals,
quasi-judicial
appeals
for
process.
One
and
three
land
use
matters.
Instead,
all
the
appeals
are
not.
All
appeals
are
now
directed
to
the
state
Superior
Court.
P
These
did
not
include
amendments
to
the
Shoreline
master
program
or
the
environmental
procedure
or
cipa
procedures
in
the
Bellevue
city
code,
and
as
such
we
are
proposing
the
following
amendments
to
the
Shoreline
master
program.
One
would
be
to
remove
all
of
the
existing
references
in
the
ebcc
again.
Some
of
these
are
more
procedural
in
nature.
Others
are
just
direct
references
to
the
body
and
then
the
other
would
be
to
remove
Council
appeal
Authority
for
Shoreline
process.
P
One
actions
specifically
these
only
include
trolling
conditional
use
permits
and
instead
appeals
are
directed
to
the
state,
shoreline
hearings,
board
and
then
Shoreline
process.
One
and
two
remain
the
same,
because
this
is
an
s
p
Amendment.
We
are
required
to
go
through
a
certain
process
alongside
the
state
department
of
ecology.
This
is
called
The
Joint
review
process,
we're
in
the
city
and
ecology
will
both
solicit
comets
simultaneously
and
then
ecology
will
also
review
those
comments,
as
well
as
the
city's
process
and
amendments
to
for
consistency
with
this
Shoreline
management
Act.
P
The
next
set
of
amendments
are
for
the
environmental
procedures.
These
are
in
the
Bellevue
city
code,
chapter
22.02,
these
Implement
all
of
our
various
requirements
and
procedures
under
cipa,
the
State
Environmental
Policy
Act.
So
these
amendments
just
include
a
reference
to
type
1
appeals
to
city
council
and
then
also
they
also
clarify
the
appeal
process
for
when
cepa
is
required
for
projects.
There
are
no
additional
amendments
to
these
they're,
just
small
references
in
a
couple
places
and
for
the
BCC
to
be
amended.
P
This
does
not
require
any
additional
process
with
ecology,
so
this
can
be
adopted
anytime
after
tonight's
study
session,
as
a
separate
ordinance
from
the
s
p
and
finally,
in
terms
of
process,
we
have
issued
a
couple
of
notices
so
far
on
this
first
for
the
notice
of
application
on
December,
8th
and
then
an
additional
notice
of
public
hearing
on
December
22nd,
which
under
Australian
management
act,
has
a
30-day
comment
period.
P
These
public
hearing
has
been
scheduled
tentatively
for
January
23rd,
and
that
is
specific
to
the
s
p
procedure
or
s
p
amendments
the
sipa
Amendments,
as
I
noted,
can
be
adopted
after
tonight.
Following
the
council
public
hearing,
we
will
submit
an
initial
application
to
ecology
to
for
them
to
review
for
consistency
with
the
SMA.
P
They
will
issue
an
initial
determination
of
consistency
sometime
around
February
or
March,
following
which
Council
can
adopt
the
s
p
amendments
and
then
we'll
submit
again
for
a
final
determination
of
consistency
with
the
SMA
by
ecology
and
then
we'll
be
all
set.
So
after
all
of
that
to
conclude,
we
are
seeking
councils
direction
to
enter
finding
of
necessity
to
retain
processing
of
the
s
p.
Amendments
and
then
to
direct
staff
to
prepare
the
cepa
Amendments
for
final
adoption
and
I'll
pass
back
to
the
mayor.
A
Okay,
thank
you.
I
just
want
to
ask
a
clarifying
question.
It's
you're,
alluding
to
I
think
that
we
could
do
some
of
this.
The
sipa
bcca
ordinance
on
consent.
Yes,
okay,
so
maybe
when
we
make
an
emotion,
we
might
put
it
that
way.
Indeed,
okay,
so
let's
let's
go
ahead
and
make
a
motion
and
then
we'll.
I
A
Great
so
I'll
start
off
and
I
just
I
want
to
thank
council
member
Robertson
for
her
help
on
the
SMP
when
she
was
a
liaison
for
the
ebbc
I.
Think
that
or
ebcc
I
think
that
was
a
oh
sorry.
I
got
something
I
think
that
was
a
tough
time
and
you
made
it
very
smooth
from
that
aspect.
So
thank
you
for
for
working
so
hard
to
make
sure
that
the
community
felt
that
they
were
heard
and
they
were
involved
in
the
process
and
we
had
a
good
outcome
with
that.
