A
A
C
A
E
To
ensure
the
civil
rights
of
people
with
disabilities
and
establish
a
clear
and
comprehensive
National
mandate
for
the
elimination
of
discrimination
against
individuals
with
disabilities.
And
whereas
33
years
after
the
signing
of
the
Ada
individuals
with
disabilities,
still
experience
instances
of
discrimination,
isolation
and
abuse,
as
well
as
disproportionate
impacts
to
their
Health
social
connections
and
economic
stability.
E
And
whereas
the
city
of
Bellevue
Embraces,
the
diversity,
culture
and
contributions
of
residents
with
disabilities
in
our
schools,
government,
Workforce
and
Community
by
diligently
working
with
constituents
and
communities
to
bring
forth
the
promise
of
hope
and
freedom
envisioned
by
the
passage
of
the
Ada
and
striving
to
make
City
programs,
services
and
Facilities
accessible
to
all.
And
whereas
the
city's
diversity
Advantage
plan
adopted
in
2014
includes
the
guiding
principles
of
access
and
inclusion
and
emphasizes
building
an
environment.
That
values
the
abilities
of
all
by
proactively
removing
barriers
and
providing
accommodations
for
full
participation.
E
And
whereas
the
deaf
and
hard
of
hearing
community
takes
pride
in
their
Rich
language.
And
culture,
the
passing
of
the
Ada,
has
allowed
greater
retention
of
this
culture
through
qualified
interpreters
and
evolving
communication
systems
such
as
video
relay
services
and
whereas
the
city
of
Bellevue
affirms
that,
while
the
Ada
has
significantly
changed
the
lives
of
people
with
disabilities,
we
must
continue
to
strive
for
equal
access
and
opportunity.
E
Now,
therefore,
on
behalf
of
Lynn
Robinson,
mayor
of
the
city
of
Bellevue
Washington
and
on
behalf
of
its
city
council,
I

A
Thank
you
I'm.
Sorry,
we
we
don't
do
clapping
here,
but
thank
you
we'll
just
wave
our
hands.
We
have
Mr
Klein,
the
Bellevue
High
School
theater
director
here
tonight
to
accept
this
award.
We
also
have
several
students.
If
Mr
Klein
would
like
to
come
up
and
speak
to
us,
then
we
can
have
the
students
join
us
for
a
picture.
After.
C
C
G
We'd
like
to
thank
the
Bellevue
city
council
for
this
Proclamation
that
acknowledges
and
armors
these
young
theater
artists,
it's
good
to
be
able
to
live
and
work
in
a
city
that
respects
the
Arts,
especially
regards
for
the
Youth.
There
are
300
000
high
schools
in
North,
America
2300
are
asked
to
apply
out
of
that.
18
are
selected.
G
I
H
Behalf
of
the
entire
student
body
performing
in
the
show
and
all
alumni
of
Bellevue
High
School
theater
Department
I,
want
to
thank
each
and
every
one
of
you.
We
would
not
be
able
to
be
here
or
doing
any
of
this
without
all
of
your
support,
even
when
most
people,
including
some
of
us,
didn't,
expect
this
to
be
able
to
happen.
When
I
told
my
family
that
we
were
going
to
be
doing
this,
they
said
no
you're,
not
you're,
not
going
to
a
festival.
H
This
isn't
happening,
that's
not
something
you
can
do,
but
we
push
forward
even
the
French
Festival
itself.
When
we
applied-
and
we
said
we
were
bringing
our
own
musical,
they
said
you
don't
need
to
bring
a
musical.
You
can
just
bring
a
play.
We
said
we're
bringing
a
musical
because
that's
what
they
asked
for
and
through
all
the
challenges
that
have
been
brought
up.
A
A
B
Thank
you
mayor
this
evening.
We
do
have
a
number
of
speakers
17
in
fact,
and
I
will
remind
the
public
and
those
listening
online
that
oral
Communications
is
for
a
period
not
to
exceed
30
minutes
total
each
speaker
will
be
allowed
three
minutes
to
speak,
and
only
three
speakers
will
be
allowed
to
speak
to
any
one
side
of
a
particular
Topic.
B
In
addition,
I
need
to
remind
everyone
that,
in
compliance
with
Washington
state
public
disclosure
laws
related
to
elections,
that
no
election
related
topics
can
be
discussed
during
the
oral
Communications
or
other
public
participation
points
on
our
agenda.
This
includes
promoting
or
opposing
ballot
measures
or
supporting
or
opposing
a
candidate
for
election,
which
includes
your
own
campaign.
A
We
can
take
three
in
favor
of
a
topic.
Three
opposed
comprehensive
plan
has
a
lot
of
facets
to
it.
So
when
you
come
to
speak,
please
identify
which
area
you
are
speaking
to
so
we
can
just
have
that
three
in
that
topic
and
four
and
three
against
I
think
that's
about
it,
we'll
see
if
we
can
get
through.
You
don't
have
to
speak
for
three
minutes.
If
you
want
to
make
it
shorter,
somebody
else
may
get
a
turn,
but
whatever
you
get
your
three
minutes
so
go
ahead.
A
K
Good
evening
my
name
is
Craig
spiesel
and
I'm.
A
resident
of
Bellevue
I
first
would
like
to
fit
Council
for
your
leadership
last
week,
providing
direction
to
the
transportation
department
regarding
the
impact
of
paid
parking
and
second
for
directing
the
plan
Department
to
remove
areas
of
opportunity
from
the
Eis.
K
K
Current
efforts
and
tactics
being
employed
are
no
longer
adequate,
reflecting
the
size
and
diversity
of
Bellevue.
City
departments
have
rapidly
introduced
initiatives
which
have
often
outpaced
the
councils
commissions
and
the
community's
ability
to
accurately
comprehend
and
respond
to
the
information
being
presented.
To
help
address
these
challenges,
we
are
proposing
a
six-point
plan
with
the
goal
to
maximize
Community
input
number
one
engage:
neighborhood
associations,
contact,
designated
neighborhood
Liaisons
in
all
the
neighborhoods
being
impacted
to
maximize
engagement
and
to
solicit
public
comment.
K
Two
provide
ample
time
for
public
comment.
The
comma
Comet
period
should
correlate
to
the
complexity
of
the
amount
of
the
information
being
presented
by
staff
number
three
balance:
oral
Commons
between
all
stakeholders.
Often
there
are
three
groups
vying
to
make
oral
comments:
citizens,
Bellevue
business
organizations
and
external
special
interest
groups.
Controls
should
be
established
to
ensure
all
constituents
are
heard
and
for
transparency.
K
The
practice
of
using
audio
only
recordings
do
not
provide
adequate
context
to
material
being
presented,
nor
are
ADA
Compliant,
five
emphasize
intuitive
naming
for
optimal
engagement.
Lately,
some
initiative
tactics
have
lacked
intuitives,
for
example,
the
draft
environmental
impact
statement
for
comprehensive
plan,
periodic
update
for
Wilburton
Vision
implementation,
a
full
name,
but
if
fail
to
convey
that
Encompass
up
zoning
in
residential
districts
and
neighborhood
centers
the
result
is
it
negatively
impacted
comments
and
six
establish
a
multi-sacore
advisory
Council
to
provide
a
review,
Community
engagement
plans
prior
to
City
departments,
soliciting
public
input?
K
C
L
Staff's
documentation
to
study
mixed
use,
low
medium
designation
for
all
shopping
centers
with
a
new
neighborhood
centers
that
is
studying
five
to
seven
stories,
I'm
here
to
provide
some
context
regarding
the
Newport
Hills
neighborhood
center.
It
is
the
second
largest
shopping
center
of
the
six
identified
by
the
city
as
designated
on
the
land
use
plan.
The
center
is
approximately
20
acres,
of
which
Newport
Hills
shopping
center
alone
is
about
six
acres.
L
L
Regarding
the
commercial
viability
analysis
commissioned
by
the
city.
The
analysis
paints
a
picture
of
a
retail
Center
that
generally
meets
the
definition
of
a
viable
retail
Newport.
Hills
shopping
center
has
not
been
commercially
viable
for
more
than
a
decade,
and
the
existing
buildings
are
long
past.
Their
usual
life,
the
average
rental
rate
at
Newport,
Hills
shopping
center
is
three
times
lower
than
the
surrounding
centers
and
has
consistently
been
more
than
20
percent
awakened,
whereas
surrounding
centers
have
vacancies
less
than
one
percent.
L
Newport
Hills
shopping
center
is
a
unique
opportunity
to
convert
a
downtrodden,
1960
strip
center
into
a
true
mixed-use
Neighborhood
Center
large
sites
like
this
offer
flexibility
to
Confederate
buildings,
to
incorporate
public
amenities
such
as
plazas
Community,
Gathering
spaces
that
can
have
a
profound
impact
on
Place
making
and
can
provide
affordable
housing
that
are
otherwise
unachievable
on
typical
sites.
Potential
Redevelopment
could
also
help
increase
the
tree
canopy
within
the
site
and
increase
pervious
surfaces.
L
A
true
mix-use
Center
also
encourages
walkability
and
reduces
trips.
Studying
mu,
low
medium
in
feis
would
provide
flexibility
to
support
the
vision
of
a
vibrant
neighborhood
as
housing
drives
the
economics
of
mixed-use
projects
that
can
help
fund
extraordinary
public
amenities
on
retail.
Thank
you.
M
Great,
my
name
is
George
Bullock
and
I
have
lived
in
Bellevue
for
23
years.
Over
the
last
few
months,
Como
4
has
reported
these
stories,
among
others
about
Seattle
a
pregnant
woman
and
her
husband
were
shot
execution
style
in
Belltown,
the
woman
and
her
unborn
child
were
killed.
Her
husband
was
injured.
She
was
a
beloved
Belltown
business
owner
last
Friday,
a
homeless,
encampment
exploded
and
burned
outside
Harbor
View
Medical
Center
in
camping
is
already
being
rebuilt
in
the
exact
same
spot.
M
The
Seattle
City
council
voted
against
following
Washington
state
law
that
makes
it
illegal
to
use
drugs
in
public.
All
drug
use
is
now
effectively
legal
in
the
city
of
Seattle,
a
homeless
encampment
sits
next
to
the
arrowhead
Gardens
senior
home
in
South
Park.
It
has
been
there
for
months.
Interviews
with
the
residents
are
heartbreaking,
as
they
tell
of
crime
theft,
noise,
gunshots
and
more
last
weekend
there
was
a
Mariners
game
to
Taylor
Swift
concerts
in
the
Capitol
Hill
block
party
early
Sunday
morning.
M
A
crowd
of
people
basically
took
over
Central
Capitol
Hill
illegal
racing
ensued,
police
moved
in,
but
pulled
back
after
they
met
resistance.
Two
hours
later,
four
people
were
shot.
Meanwhile,
Seattle
looks
terrible.
Graffiti
is
pervasive,
and
yet,
in
June,
a
federal
judge
limited
to
Seattle
Police
Department
for
making
arrests
for
certain
cases
on
Free
Speech
grounds.
M
No
self-respecting
City
would
allow
itself
to
descend
into
drug
use,
crime,
chaos
and
ugliness.
Like
this.
The
lack
of
respect
is
coming
from
the
city,
council
and
counties,
and
state
officials
who
have
passed
laws
that
have
resulted
in
dangerous
reduction
in
law
enforcement.
Personnel,
have
legalized
public
drug
use
and
have
tied
officials
hands
regarding
shutting
down
homeless
encampments.
The
disrespected
are
the
citizens
who
pay
these
people's
salaries.
M
N
N
You
know
it
kind
of
blows
what
I
had
to
say
here,
but
let
me
just
remind
all
of
you
that
if
it's
a
downtrodden
shopping
center,
it's
because
your
client
allowed
it
to
become
that
way.
Over
the
last
10
years,
his
father
took
care
of
it
when
he
had
it
in
his
possession.
N
Let
me
remind
you
too,
that
both
north
town
and
Bell
East
are
older
than
our
shopping
center
and
we're
maintained,
Eastgate
Plaza
and
the
Kelsey
Creek
Center
are
only
six
and
nine
years
newer
than
ours,
both
maintained,
so
anything
that
happens
at
Newport
Hills
is
because
of
her
client
and
his
decision
making.
We
do
have
a
buyer,
we
have
a
buyer.
That
I
think
would
make
everybody
happy.
You
happy
me
happy
my
neighborhood,
but
we
can't
get
him
to
come
back
to
the
table
with
this
buyer.
N
It
would
fulfill
a
lot
of
the
stuff
on
the
comp
plan
in
terms
of
housing
for
seniors
in
terms
of
maintaining
our
small
businesses,
but
when
you
have
somebody
who
just
wants
to
profit
off
of
you,
it's
it's
kind
of
hard.
So
you
know
if
you
don't
see
a
whole
lot
of
us
here
from
the
neighborhoods
tonight.
It's
because
people
don't
know
that
this
is
happening.
N
These
letters
came
in
from
Property
Owners
such
as
Rainier
Northwest,
asking
for
what
is
essentially
site-specific
reasons
that
we
don't
do
that
during
the
con
Plan
update.
We
don't
do
that
during
the
deis,
but
that's
what
everybody
seems
to
be
asking
for
so
I,
really
this
this
whole
business
about.
Let's,
let's
make
a
a
compromise
with
mixed-use
low
medium.
No,
you
know
what
I
don't
want
to
be
in
Thunderdome
with
Kelsey
Creek
Center,
who
actually
is
the
appropriate
size
for
the
Mixed
use.
Mid-Rise
I
want
to
see
them
win.
N
I,
don't
want
to
see
Northtown
Newport,
Hills,
Lakemont,
Belle,
East
I,
don't
want
to
see
us
have
to
lose
so
that
Kelsey
Creek
can
win.
It
doesn't
have
to
be
that
way.
I
would
really
like
for
you
to
honor
the
mixed-use
low
rise
designations,
and
you
know
what
go
around
and
look
at
some
of
those
shopping.
Centers
Northtown
hasn't
had
a
vacancy
in
almost
seven
or
eight
years
since
silver
platters
moved
in.
They
don't
need
all
of
this
density
to
survive,
but
we
need
a
new
owner
and
we
need
our
allowed
uses
updated.
Thank
you.
O
Given
the
importance
of
Wilburton
to
our
City's
economic
viability
and
general
livability,
we
should
maximize
its
potential
for
both
businesses
and
residents
and
understand
the
effects
of
such
growth.
Wolverton's
proximity
to
light
rail
significance
to
small
businesses,
which
call
it
home
and
ability
to
produce,
affordable
housing,
make
it
an
ideal
candidate
for
maximum
growth
potential.
Accordingly,
we
caution
against
over
administering
land
use
designations
in
lower
densities.
In
this
area,
specifically,
we've
heard
from
several
property
owners
and
businesses
that
had
concern
over
what
lower
Heights
and
Alternate
uses
would
mean
for
the
future
of
this
area.
O
The
business
community
that
Bellevue
has
cultivated
is
a
very
strong
one
and
it
makes
Bellevue
Bellevue
and
we
would
like
to
continue
to
ensure
that
Economic,
Opportunity
and
entrepreneurial
spirit
continues
to
flourish
in
this
area.
Thank
you
for
your
dedication
to
this
work
and
the
opportunity
to
comment,
and
we
look
forward
to
continuing
our
partnership
with
the
city,
staff
and
Council.
Thank
you.
P
Good
evening
my
name
is
Joe.
Coolidge
I
have
lived
here
most
my
life
and
I'm
downtown
Bellevue
for
the
past
five
years.
I
want
to
tell
you
about
two
major
concerns
of
the
current
20-year
comprehensive
plan
and
what's
happening
to
downtown
Bellevue
I
appreciate
that
the
city
is
putting
a
lot
of
effort
into
the
20-year
plan.
A
lot
of
data
and
reports
are
being
generated.
P
However,
some
important
basic
realities
are
in
danger
of
being
overlooked.
Many
of
my
downtown
mavers
share
these
concerns,
which
I
have
entered
into
the
public
comment
record,
but
I
want
you,
our
leaders
to
hear
directly
from
a
very
concerned
citizen.
The
first
problem
is
downtown
office.
Space
is
being
overbuilt,
rampant,
high-rise
construction
downtown
has
created
a
growing
surplus
of
office
space,
for
example
the
West
Main
project.
Three
new
high-rise
buildings
with
one
million
square
feet,
sit
unfinished
and
empty
Amazon.
The
principal
tenant
is
still
considering
how
to
use
the
space.
P
Also
Microsoft
is
not
renewing
their
leases
for
over
1
million
square
feet
of
downtown
Office
Space,
so
were
other
companies
have
announced
an
intent
to
sublease
their
office.
Space
working
from
home
is
here
for
good,
and
this
will
continue
to
soften
the
demand
for
offices,
especially
Tech
work,
which
comprises
many
of
our
downtown
jobs,
all
forwarding
adults
in
my
family,
two
software
Engineers,
a
writer
and
an
attorney
work
remotely
and
have
no
need
or
desire
to
be
in
an
office
building.
P
We've
all
seen
what's
happened
in
San
Francisco,
Portland
and
Seattle
bacon,
buildings,
increased
crime,
businesses
and
people
leaving
in
a
general
deterioration
of
the
downtown
area,
excess
office
space
is
a
major
factor.
Please
don't
let
this
happen
to
our
beautiful
city.
Please
pause
the
runaway
high-rise
office
Construction.
P
The
second
major
problem
is
downtown.
Vehicle
traffic
is
destined
for
more
gridlock,
I,
see
the
traffic
on
Northeast,
Bellevue,
Way
and
other
downtown
arterials
slow
to
a
crawl
and
get
very
backed
up
several
times
a
day.
There
is
no
way
these
roads
can
absorb
the
additional
traffic
from
all
the
downtown
construction,
there's
also
a
pedestrian
safety
issue.
My
wife
and
I
love
the
walkability
of
downtown.
P
We
have
seen
several
incidents
of
near
misses
with
vehicles
that
ignore
traffic
singles
endangering
pedestrians
lawfully
using
the
crosswalks.
The
draft
Eis
has
identified
traffic
as
a
significant
and
unavoidable
impact.
It's
not
enough
to
just
say
this.
Something
has
to
be
done,
that
something
is
simply
pause.
All
new
major
downtown
office
projects
until
the
traffic
situation
can
be
solved.
To
summarize
downtown
Bellevue
is
suffering
from
rampant
high-rise
construction,
which
is
certain
to
result
in
too
many
empty
offices
and
work
with
lock
traffic.
The
only
viable
remedy
is
to
pause
all
new
major
downtown
projects.
K
Q
I
I
would
like
to
open
with
a
quote
thanks
to
Pam
Johnson,
the
people
of
the
state
of
Washington
do
not
yield
their
sovereignty
to
the
agencies
which
serve
them
on
July
10th,
the
transportation
Department.
Q
Without
a
single
member
who
is
elected
among
them
as
city
council
to
form
a
separate
government
and
po,
impose
a
0.1
percent
tax
sales
tax
on
people
of
Bellevue.
They
only
informed,
apparently
the
downtown
community.
Further,
they
presented
no
budgets
projects
and
timelines
on
the
following
Monday,
the
city
council
voted
five
to
one.
Thank
you,
Mr,
Lee,
to
allow
them
to
incorporate
and
form
a
separate
government
with
funding
to
be
decided
in
the
future.
This
is
the
most
only
the
most
recent
insulting
overreach
by
staff.
It
does
not
seem
that
the
people
are
heard.
Q
I
have
more
to
say.
Other
people
have
said
this.
I
have
been
a
resident
of
Northeast
Bellevue
for
28
years.
I
have
been
through
three
Northeast
Bellevue
comp
plans
as
a
very
active
member
of
the
Northeast
Bellevue
Group.
The
earlier
iterations
in
2017-1819
were
open
to
discussion
were
held
in
public
and
it
seemed
that
only
residents
attended
as
the
meetings
became
virtual
in
mid
2020.
Q
Q
Q
The
Bellevue
tech
center
spans
that
stretch
and
goes
three
to
four
blocks.
Back
plus
City
staff
has
affirmed
that
it
will
not
result
in
affordable
housing.
Q
B
R
Good
evening,
my
two
cousins
and
my
cousin's
son
have
also
joined
me
since
Lisa
is
probably
a
speaker
tonight
and
we
thought
we
could
just
wrap
this
into
one.
So
thank
you
again
to
the
council,
member
staff
and
you
the
mayor
for
taking
the
time
to
hear
us
tonight.
My
name
is
Christina
dagoni
and
I
am
one
of
the
owners
of
Overlake
Farm,
a
60
Acre
Farm
in
the
northeast
corner
of
Bellevue.
It's
been
there
since
1942.
R
tonight,
I'm
here
with
my
cousins,
Lisa
and
Linda
Safara
Linda's
son
Forrest
who's,
our
fourth
generation
and
our
two
80
plus
year
old
mothers
and
Aunt
are
with
us
tonight
for
support.
These
two
women
have
spent
a
Lifetime
on
the
farm
when
Bellevue
Square
was
Strawberry,
Fields
and
they'd
ride
their
ponies
down
to
Bellevue
Square
and
go
to
the
old
little
Nordstroms
in
Mary
Grove
go
round
and
Frederick
and
Nelson's
Etc
The
City,
Is,
At,
A,
precipice
of
growth,
and
in
that
Overlake
Farm
is
the
single
largest
land
holding
left
in
Bellevue.
R
We
think
we
can
help
in
the
process,
but
also
keep
our
farm
a
farm
and
keep
open
space
specifically
I.
We
are
here
again
this
week
to
ask
that
the
city
council
directs
staff
to
include
our
medium
on
our
Parcels
in
the
preferred
alternative
map
going
forward,
as
mentioned
before,
this
is
a
legacy
property
that
has
been
handed
down
through
the
generations
for
81
years.
We
have
been
good
stewards,
but
the
time
has
come
to
do
something
with
at
least
a
small
portion
of
our
property
to
address
neighbor
concerns
in
part.
R
We
are
fortunate
that
we
are
surrounded
by
buffer
transition
zones
that
consist
of
medium
density,
6001,
condo
Apartments
to
the
north,
Bellevue
municipal
golf
course
to
the
East
and
our
own
20
acres
to
the
West,
which
I
might
add.
We
are
not
asking
for
consideration
on
specifically,
we
are
looking
to
Cluster
a
project
consisting
of
town
homes,
cottages
and
or
apartments
in
our
northeast
corner
of
the
140th
and
next
to
6001,
which
consists
of
something
around
five
to
eight
Acres.
R
We
can
only
do
this
if
we
build
taller
under
our
medium,
otherwise
we
will
have
sprawl
over
our
entire
property,
which
means
cutting
down
trees
and
Grading
out
our
beautiful
topography.
That
is
not
our
goal.
We
continue
to
cherish
pasture
horses
open
space
and
don't
want
to
develop
our
full
acreage
for
the
foreseeable
future
that
has
been
discussed
today.
We
believe
within
our
own
property.
R
We
can
also
provide
natural
buffer
zones
via
wetlands
and
topography
due
to
the
sheer
size
we
have
heard
from
our
neighbors
and
concerns
about
transition,
and
we
have
those
same
concerns,
but
we
need
our
medium
on
our
parcel,
so
we
can
congregate
density
as
such.
We
believe
it's
appropriate
for
our
three
Parcels
to
be
designated
going
forward
in
the
preferred
alternative
plan.
Thank
you.
R
S
P
S
S
Seeks
to
further
decrease
your
ability
to
plan
manage
and
control
as
I
read
1337
you
have
to
opt
in.
You
have
the
ability
to
opt
into
that
the
carrot
there
is
they'll
transfer,
some
some
State
sales
tax
revenues
to
the
city
in
exchange
for
you
giving
up
the
ability
to
plan,
so
I
would
suggest
that
you
take
a
real
hard
look
at
that.
S
We
know
that
that
we
have
a
need
for
increasing
density.
Increasing
livability
prices
are
sort
of
out
of
stained,
more
fortunate
that
we
moved
into
that
neighborhood
and
in
1978,
and
and
have
seen
it
it
grow
and
expand.
S
Make
a
plan
that
that
seems
to
to
take
away
what
our
sub
areas
previously
managed.
So
thank
you
very
much
and
appreciate
your
consideration.
I
This
is
on
okay,
cool
mayor
Robinson,
Deputy,
Mayor,
Newman
house
and
City
Council.
Members
I
really
appreciate
the
opportunity
to
speak
today.
I
I
wanted
to
speak
specifically
in
support
of
the
mixed-use
low
designation,
specifically
for
neighborhood
centers
and
I,
wanted
to
speak
about
it
from
a
infrastructure
perspective,
but
also
a
kind
of
greenhouse
gas
emissions
perspective
I'm
going
to
have
a
lens
of
Newport
Hills,
just
because
that's
where
I
live.
So,
if
I'm
going
to
talk
about
that,
so
Newport
Hills
has
as
one
single
collector
Road
and
if
you
go
through
the
dis
and
you
look
for
the
kind
of
infrastructure
improvements
that
are
anticipated
for
the
next
10
years.
I
There's
only
three
there's
a
stoplight
coming
in.
There
is
a
I
think,
a
there's,
a
sidewalk
being
built
and
then
there's
potentially
a
roundabout
being
built
for,
but
that's
dependent
on
Outside
Agency
funding.
So
there's
not
a
lot
of
throughput
capacity
that
we're
adding
to
the
neighborhood
center,
at
least
specifically
for
for
Newport
Hills,
so
so
that
that's
kind
of
like
one
part
of
it.
The
next
part
is
from
a
emission
standpoint.
I
You
have
an
expected
increase
in
the
single
occupancy
vehicle
usage
and
you
kind
of
put
that
into
a
neighborhood
center,
and
you
can
probably
expect
a
lot
more
stop
and
go
traffic.
A
lot
more
kind
of
you
know
waiting
for
you
know
the
stoplight
to
change
and
from
an
emission
standpoint,
that's
like
the
worst
thing
that
you
could
really
do
so.
I
want
to
just
bring
your
cons,
your
attention
to
kind
of
the
the
concerns
of
the
lack
of
infrastructure
improvements
along
with
the
kind
of
proposed
potential
up.
Zoning
of
it.
I
So
you
know,
I
think
mixed
use,
low,
makes
sense,
I
understand
the
need
for
growth
and
affordability
like
that
needs
to
happen
in
Bellevue,
but
I
do
think
that
you
know
we
have
an
ability
to
customize
some
of
these
plans
with
sub-area
planning
as
well
and
that
maybe
we
should
consider
that
as
a
way
to
kind
of
consider
the
right
types
of
Zoning
for
these
neighborhood
centers.
So
that's
my
whole
skill.
Thank
you
for
listening,
appreciate
it.
A
C
A
T
Sure,
thank
you
mayor,
council
members.
This
is
a
report
of
an
emergency
procurement.
This
is
information.
This
is
information
on
that
part
of
Bellevue
city
code.
The
manager
is
required
to
inform
the
city
council
of
any
emergency
procurement
that
was
executed
and
in
this
case
an
emergency
procurement
was
necessary
because
of
unanticipated
contamination.
That
was
discovered
during
demolition
of
the
fire
station
10
site
and,
as
a
result,
the
emergency
contact
Contracting
was
required
for
immediate
remediation
so
that
it
is
in
your
packet
there's
additional
details
in
the
pack
on
the
report.
As.
U
Oh
yes,
I
do
mayor
and
I'm
very
pleased
to
make
a
recommendation
for
Richard
niederlander
he's
originally
from
New
York
City.
His
family
grew
up
there
and
they're
involved
in
arts
and
museums
and
such
for
a
long
time.
He
has
a
lot
of
experience
in
that
and
very
active
now
is
he's
been
in
Bellevue
for
a
couple
years
and
he's
a
engineer
with
a
blue
origin
and
he's
really
brings
another
perspective
to
the
to
the
commission
and
I'm
very
pleased
to
offer
him
for
appointment
to
a
full,
four-year
term.
Would.
A
A
T
You
Mary
the
first
item
in
your
on
your
study
session
agenda
this
evening
is
a
the
planning,
is
a
continuation
of
last
week's
discussion
regarding
the
planning
commission's
preferred
alternative,
as
it
relates
to
the
comprehensive
Plan
update
in
the
Wilburton
Vision
implementation
tonight
again,
staff
is
seeking
of
counselors
ready,

the
alternative
to
be
further
studied
in

A
V
Thank
you
mayor
good
evening,
mayor
Deputy,
Mayor,
members
of
the
council.
Thank
you,
Mr
Miyaki,
for
the
introduction
tonight
we
are
first
of
all,
I
want
to
start
out
by
saying.
Thank
you
to
all
of
you
for
last
week's
meeting.
We
covered
a
lot
of
ground.
We
got
some
some
really
good
direction
from
the
city
council
last
week.
V
I
know,
there's
been
a
lot
of
consternation
on
the
part
of
the
public
and
others
about
what
an
Eis
is
and
is
not,
and
what
we're
actually
asking
of
the
council.
We've
gotten
locked
into
this
term
preferred
alternative,
and
in
retrospect,
I
wish.
We
we
hadn't
used
that
one
so
I'm
going
to
try
an
analogy
tonight
to
explain
exactly
what
this
is
all
about.
So
if
you
will
indulge
me
this
I'm
going
to
borrow
a
page
from
my
friend,
Genesee
Atkinson,
who
always
uses
food
analogies
to
explain
things
a
few
years
ago.
V
So
if,
when
I'm,
when
I'm
cooking
I
often
look
on
the
website
for
recipes
because
I
usually
don't
know
what
I'm
doing
to
begin
with
so
I
want
to
see
a
variety
of
recipes
and
I'll
start
with
something.
That's
basic,
that
I
can
that
I
can
use.
It
has
basic
ingredients
in
it.
It's
starting
from
something
that
I
know
in
the
case
of
the
the
draft
Eis.
That
would
be
our
no
action
alternative.
That's
the
comprehensive
plan,
that's
our
existing
plan.
V
We
know
that
that
has
all
of
the
basic
ingredients
that
we
need,
then,
over
time,
I
will
try
different
recipes
with
different
ingredients,
I'll
mix
and
match
different
Meats
different
pastas,
different
ingredients,
spices
and
things
that
might
go
into
that.
To
try
those
different
tastes
and
see
what
works,
what
doesn't
for
me
or
or
people
that
I
have
for
dinner?
V
What
we've
done
with
the
comprehensive
plan
and
Wilburton
is
a
part
of
that
dish.
If
I
can
continue,
that
analogy
is
we
have?
We
have
tested
different
mixtures
of
ingredients,
so
we
have
Alternatives
one
two
and
three,
which
start
with
the
basics
that
we
have
in
the
existing
plan
and
then
we've
added
different
things
to
see
how
those
work
together
and
what
the
different
impacts
would
be.
V
V
We've
already
tried
we're
not
going
to
add
any
additional
ingredients,
but
we're
going
to
test
different
mixtures
than
what
we've
tested
already
that's
what
this
alternative
is
it's
really
just
looking
at
a
mixture
of
a
different
combination
of
those
ingredients,
and
it's
not
saying
that
this
is
the
only
way
we're
ever
going
to
fix
this
dish.
It's
just
saying
this
is
what
we
want
to
try
now
and
we
want
to
test
it
a
little
bit
more.
So
we're
asking
for
additional
study
on
some
variations
on
what
we've
already
studied
in
the
draft
Eis.
V
Already
studied
Alternatives
zero,
which
is
our
existing
comprehensive
plan.
We've
already
studied
Alternatives
one
two
and
three
for
the
entire
city,
as
well
as
for
Wilburton,
specifically
and
because
we're
doing
Wilburton
at
the
same
time
as
the
rest
of
the
city's
update
for
the
comprehensive
planned
we've
done
a
little
bit
more
work
on
that,
in
particular,.
V
A
V
The
only
other
thing
I
would
add
is
as
we're
looking
at
at
the
different
items
that
we're
talking
to
you
about
this
evening
and
going
forward
through
this
process.
Is
that
we
keep
in
mind
that
we're
not
talking
we're,
not
planning
for
the
Bell
view
of
today
we're
planning
for
the
Bellevue
of
5
10
20
years
into
the
future,
as
we
add
35
000,
more
housing
units
and
70
000
more
jobs
over
that
time
period.
W
Thanks
Michael
good
evening,
mayor
and
members
of
council
staff
are
here
tonight
to
continue
the
discussion
that
we
started
on
July
17th,
where
we
reviewed
the
planning
commissions
recommended
preferred
alternative.
We
took
that
feedback
that
we
received
last
week.
We
addressed
it
in
the
memo
in
your
packet
tonight
and
we're
going
to
be
reviewing
that
feedback
and
then
methodically
going
through
each
area
to
see
if
the
council
is
ready
to
give
direction
on
those
specific
elements,
we
do
also
have
August
7th
reserved
as
a
backup
date.
W
If
the
council
would
like
additional
time
to
talk
about
things,
the
agenda
is
going
to
be
a
very
brief
recap
of
the
schedule
tonight
and
then
we
will
be
going
through
the
feedback
we're
received
both
on
the
planning
commission's
preferred
alternative,
as
well
as
the
areas
that
the
council
would
like
to
have.
Some
more
analysis
done
in
the
final
environmental
impact
statement.
W
We're
going
to
use
this
this
numbering
system
in
order
for
the
discussion
tonight
and
the
presentation
so
we'll
be
starting
with
Wilburton
describing
the
feedback
we
received,
we'll
move
on
to
mixed
use,
centers,
which
include
downtown
East,
Main,
Crossroads,
Factoria,
Eastgate
areas
and
then
we'll
move
on
to
Neighborhood
centers,
which
we've
had
some
public
comment
about.
But
those
are
the
six
neighborhood
shopping,
centers
areas
of
opportunity,
neighborhood,
residential,
affordable
housing,
tree
canopy,
the
site.
Specifics
are
something
we
have
in
your
packet
as
well,
we'll
review
those
with
you
based
on
your
direction.
W
Just
a
quick
refresher
on
the
the
schedule.
We're
we're
past
the
halfway
point
of
this
effort.
These
these
efforts
were
launched
back
in
early
2022.
You
can
see
that
Wolverton
and
the
comp
plan
update
are
continuing
to
to
move
forward.
We
have
the
environmental
impact
statement,
which
is
really
the
technical
document
that
looks
at
the
benefits
of
different
growth
options,
as
well
as
some
of
the
impacts
and
potential
mitigation
measures.
So
we
we
have
the
deis
that
we
completed
and
now
we're
in
the
process
of
forming
another
alternative
to
go.
W
Look
at
some
more
in
the
final
Eis.
There
are
a
number
of
future
actions
and
discussions
both
at
the
board
and
commission
level,
as
was
as
well
as
the
council
level.
So
you
can
see
the
council
interactions
would
first
happen
on
Wolverton
and
then
follow
up
with
the
city-wide
effort
on
the
comp
plan.
W
And
then
a
very
brief
refresher
on
the
process
framework
for
the
Alternatives.
It's
important
to
note
that
as
Michael
described,
the
no
action
alternative
and
the
three
action
Alternatives
have
already
been
analyzed
in
the
draft
Eis.
So
those
were
formed
earlier
this
year.
Analyzed
we
had
the
45-day
comment
period
now
we're
at
the
the
point
where
we
are
looking
at
this
preferred
alternative
to
go.
Do
some
additional
analysis
on?
W
X
Heard
last
week
that
the
council
preference
was
to-
or
the
feedback
we
heard
was
to
study
the
Planning
Commission
preferred
alternative,
which
is
the
hybrid
of
Alternatives
two
and
three
for
Wilburton
and
in
addition,
we
also
heard
that
it
would
be
important,
in
the
feis
analysis,
to
evaluate
impacts
on
neighborhoods
to
the
east
of
the
study
area,
as
well
as
assess
the
impact
of
higher
densities.
Around
Lake
Bellevue,
including
Public
Access,.
Y
So
we're
going
to
switch
to
I'm.
Sorry,
can
you
hear
me?
Okay,
okay,
now
we're
going
to
switch
to
the
other
topics
that
are
related
to
our
city-wide
analysis,
so
start
off
with
mixed-use
centers
and,
as
Emil
mentioned
right
at
the
right
at
the
start
of
the
presentation,
those
relate
to
our
commercial
Center's,
commercial,
mixed
use,
centers
or
areas
like
Crossroads,
Factoria,
Eastgate,
downtown
and
Bel.
Red
are
some
of
our
mixed-use
centers.
Y
At
last
week's
council
meeting,
we
heard
from
city
council
that
you're
supportive
of
the
planning
commission's
preferred
alternative
and
some
additional
analysis
that
you
wanted
incorporated
into
the
final
Eis
relates
to
just
what
the
overall
Transportation
impacts
are
going
to
be
cumulative
impacts
as
a
result
of
the
final
Eis
and
then
the
associated
mitigation.
Y
The
next
topic
is
neighborhood
centers
and
we
heard
a
fair
amount
in
terms
of
public
comment
this
evening.
As
well
as
a
public
comment.
That's
been
transmitted
to
city
council
through
correspondence.
We
also
had
a
fair
amount
of
deliberation
and
discussion
with
both
the
Planning
Commission
relating
to
what's
appropriate
for
these
neighborhood
centers.
So
we
have
six
neighborhood
centers
shopping,
centers
the
vary
in
size.
We
had
economic
analysis
that
supported
a
lot
of
that
discussion
and
Analysis
and
similar
to
council's
discussion.
At
last
week's
meeting.
Y
Planning
Commission
also
spent
a
great
deal
of
time
deliberating
over,
what's
appropriate.
The
preferred
alternative,
of
course,
and
the
planning
commission's
recommendation
was
for
a
mixed
use
low,
but
they
also
were
really
open
to
some
other
options,
like
count
very
similar
to
what
council
discussed
in
terms
of
looking
at
something
in
between
mixed-use,
low
and
mixed-use
medium,
which
would
be
in
the
five
to
seven
story
range,
so
something
that
we're
looking
for
direction
from
Council
tonight,
as
part
of
your
overall
discussion
is
what
should
be
included
in
the
final
Eis.
Y
Should
we
be
evaluating
all
neighborhood
centers?
Similarly,
or
should
we
be
looking
at
certain
neighborhood
centers
with
certain
criteria
differently
from
others,.
Y
Again,
a
great
deal
of
discussion
at
both
the
Planning
Commission,
as
well
as
city
council
and
then
the
feedback
that
we
heard
from
you
last
week
clearly
was
to
really
not,
and
we
heard
a
lot
from
the
community
as
well
concern
about
additional
density
surrounding
or
Within
These
area.
These
areas
of
opportunity,
so
we
heard
from
you
last
week,
was
to
not
include
the
higher
density
designation
for
both
multi-family,
as
well
as
some
of
the
single-family
areas,
but
to
really
focus
on
the
additional
density
required
under
State
legislation
under
house
bill,
1110
and
1337..
Y
So
what
we
heard
from
you
was
within
the
feis.
We
should
be
studying
the
impact
of
of
those
two
bills
and
not
looking
at
higher
density
designations
within
the
areas
of
opportunity.
Y
Now,
moving
moving
along
to
Neighborhood
residential
here,
what
we
heard
from
Council-
and
we
also
heard
public
testimony
today
about
the
Overlake
Farms
property.
But
there
was
support
based
on
last
week's
Council
discussion
to
support
the
planning
commission's
preferred
alternative
relating
to
Neighborhood
residential.
Y
There
was
also
a
discussion
at
last
week's
council
meeting
relating
to
additional
analysis
being
needed
for
the
new
legislation
that
had
been
passed.
We
have
Incorporated
up
aspects
of
1110,
but
of
course,
as
we
talked
about
last
week,
the
provisions
of
the
bill
weren't
complete
at
that
time,
so
the
feis
would
include
studying
the
impacts
of
11,
10
and
1337..
Y
Y
The
next
topic
area
relates
to
affordable
housing,
and
here
the
planning
commission's
recommendation
was
to
study
both
mandatory
and
voluntary
approaches
to
affordable
housing
city-wide.
The
council
was
supportive
of
the
planning
commission's
recommendation
and
also
in
addition,
there
was.
There
was
robust
discussion
at
Council
last
week
relating
to
studying
some
additional
pieces
within
the
feis,
in
addition
to
the
planning
commission's
recommendation
so
studying
on
the
impact
of
other,
affordable
housing
tools
and
incentives,
including
mfte
within
high-rise,
how
that
would
be
impacted.
Y
This
was
this
was
a
piece
that
we
heard
a
lot
from
the
community
Through.
The
draft
Eis
comment
period
and
the
intent
was
to
have
that
studied
in
more
detail
in
the
final
Eis.
W
The
next
area
is
what
we're
calling
site-specific
requests,
and
these
are
specific
to
requests
that
were
made
during
the
draft
Eis
comment
period
and
they
were
not
analyzed
in
the
draft
Eis
nor
are
recommended
in
the
preferred
alternative.
So
we
wanted
to
to
make
Council
aware
of
these.
The
important
part
is
if,
if
any
of
these
were
wanting
to
be
considered
at
a
future
time,
it
is
going
to
be
better
to
look
at
them
in
this
environmental
review,
review
process
or
supplemental
analysis
would
be
needed
at
a
future
time
for
these.
W
So
we've,
given
you
a
blown
up
map
of
this,
we're
happy
to
go
into
details
on
any
of
them
when
we
get
to
that
point.
But
these
are
more
for
information
for
the
council.
W
And
then,
on
the
list
of
other
things
that
came
up
at
the
last
meeting
in
your
memo,
we
have
a
write-up
on
the
the
traffic
analysis,
questions
that
council
member
Robertson
brought
up.
We
also
have
a
reprint
of
the
summary
of
the
Alternatives
impacts
and
mitigation
from
the
dis
and
the
packet.
W
We,
we
included
a
tree
canopy
map
from
the
July
2022
tree
canopy
assessment,
the
data
for
that
is
from
the
year
2019
and
it
is
39
tree
canopy
coverage
overall
for
the
city,
and
then
the
map
actually
shows
the
differences
by
different
sub-area
in
the
cities
you
can
see.
It
varies
from
as
low
as
nine
percent
in
downtown
and
14
in
Bel,
Red
up
to
above
50
percent
in
areas
like
Bridal,
Trails,
Cougar,
Mountain,
Lakemont
and
West
Lake
Sammamish
is
48
percent.
W
W
I
want
to
just
briefly
cover
the
the
missing
middle
building
types
as
defined
by
House
Bill
1110.
The
bill
actually
lays
out
nine
different
building
types
that
that
are
defined
as
missing
middle
or
middle
housing.
W
Those
include
duplex
Triplex,
fourplex,
five
Plex
six
Plex
we've
shown
some
of
those
examples
of
the
the
plexes
on
this
page,
then,
on
the
following
page,
we
have
examples
of
cottage
housing,
which
is
generally
smaller
housing
arranged
around
a
community
open
space
needs
to
be
no
less
than
20
percent
of
the
overall
site.
We
also
have
townhouses
that
are
shown
here.
W
A
Right,
thank
you.
Great
presentation,
I'm
going
to
first
just
ask
for
general
questions
about
the
process
and
then
we'll
take
each
one
of
these
nine
out
of
one
at
a
time
and
I
will
just
ask
you
to
raise
your
hand.
If
you
have
a
comment
or
question
about
these,
so
just
speaking,
General
generally
Deputy
Mary.
Would
you
like
to
start
us
off?
Thank.
J
You
mayor
and
thanks
again
for
coming
back
and
a
great
presentation,
and
thank
you
so
much
for
taking
great
notes
for
the
last
meeting
and
hearing
the
council's
initial
feedback
on
this
I've
got
a
number
of
questions.
I'll
try
and
keep
them
somewhat
General
at
this
point,
but
some
might
might
dive
into
some
of
these
specific
topic
areas.
J
But
first
question
is:
what
is
the
advantage
and
the
disadvantage
to
studying
more
than
what
we
might
allow
when
this
comes
back
before
us?
This
right?
This
is
the
Eis,
but
you
know
we're
not
beholden
to
follow
through
on
what
the
EAS
May
support,
or
not
support
or
or
or
go
forward
with
more
density
or
less
density.
J
So
if
you
could
and
and
part
of
this
is
I
want
residents
to
hear
this
and
I
want
to
make
sure
that
we're
all
clear
on
this
as
well
about
what
the
advantages
and
disadvantages
are
of
looking
at
that
from
from
from
a
from
a
maximum
perspective
which
in
this
case
the
alternative
three.
So
that's
my
my
my
first
question
also
on
the
on
the
feis.
Will
it
show
the
impact
I
know?
J
We've
got
the
tree
canopy
in
here,
but
I'm
also
concerned
about
the
the
loss
of
green
spaces,
so
I
want
to
make
sure
that
that's
covered
as
well
I'm,
not
quite
sure
if
we
would
combine
those
or
not,
but
to
me
green
space
is
a
little
bit
different
than
than
the
tree
canopy.
J
But
I'd
love
you
to
speak
to
it
tonight,
we'll
need
in
order
to
you
know
throughout
the
city
and
what
the
cost
will
be
associated
with
the
upgrade
to
utilities
that
we
would
need
to
do
in
order
to
support
that
increased
density
throughout
the
city,
not
just
neighborhood
City
neighborhood
centers,
but
you
know
throughout
the
city
and
then
last
question
and
then
I'll.
Allow
you
to
answer
is
the
the
mandatory
versus
the
incentive
systems
for
affordable
housing,
so
I'd
like
to
hold.
V
First,
crack
it
a
couple
of
these
and
then
asked
staff
to
fill
in
the
rest
of
it.
Regarding
your
first
question,
Deputy
Mayor
the
advantages
and
disadvantages
of
studying
more.
This
is
part
of
what's
called
for
in
in
sipa
in
the
state
law.
So
we
want
to
look
at
the
range
of
possibilities,
so
we
can
understand
what
the
what
the
maximum
impacts
might
be
under
different
scenarios.
J
V
Does
thank
you
in
terms
of
the
impact
on
loss
of
Green
Space.
Could
you
say
a
little
bit
more
about
what
what
you're
defining
as
Green
Space.
J
Green
Space,
that
might
not
have
I
mean
like
look
like
Lake
Larson.
For
example.
You've
got
a
lot
of
Green
Space
open
space.
There
of
you,
know
grass
fields
and
blueberry
patches
there
Etc,
but
you
know
the
trees
are.
You
know
you
know
dispersed
throughout
that
area,
but
it's
not
just
trees.
It's
a
lot
of
just
a
great
you
know
Wonderful
Green
Space
to
enjoy
as
well.
Does
that
make
sense?
Yes,.
V
J
V
Of
all
of
those,
certainly
in
terms
of
the
formal
spaces
or
the
the
official
spaces
we've
designated
for
Green
Space,
we
would
measure
any
impacts
on
those.
The
broader
definition
of
green
space,
I
think
would
get
picked
up
to
a
certain
extent
through
the
tree.
Canopy
analysis.
Okay,
we
don't,
at
this
level
of
analysis
through
an
environmental
impact
statement.
J
V
J
W
Do
look
out
20
years
when
we're
doing
our
forecasts
and
they
definitely
have
year
by
year,
interim
forecasts
that
we
do
and
we're
comfortable
doing
those
we've
done
them
in
in
the
in
the
years
past.
W
Some
of
the
things
that
we
do
take
into
account
are
definitely
the
office
growth
right
now
and
kind
of
we're
in
a
bit
of
a
holding
pattern.
Development
is
still
happening,
but
the
office
development
does
happen
in
Cycles,
so
we
do
make
some
estimates
about
the
office
growth
and
how
it
might
be
relating
to
growth
Cycles.
W
C
V
Then
we
do
an
update
every
10
years
now,
that's
also
required
to
under
state
law.
So,
even
though
this
is
a
20-year
plan,
it's
also
a
dynamic
plan
and
we're
always
checking
in
because
Emil
said
there
are
Cycles
in
development
and
and
growth,
and
we
always
want
to
it
sort
of
evens
out
over
the
20
years.
But
we
also
want
to
see
where
we
are
at
each
of
those
increments
in
the
20-year
process
and
we
can
adjust
at
those
times
great.
W
Then
the
last
one
about
utilities,
so
there
there's
a
capital
facilities
chapter
of
the
draft
Eis
and
it
covers
a
whole
host
of
different
infrastructure
that
we
need
from
police
fire
utilities.
This
is
the
20-year
plan
for
growth,
so
what
we
need
to
do
is,
as
the
plan
is
being
formulated.
We
are
working
with
the
other
departments
in
the
city
as
an
awareness
of
the
order
of
magnitude
growth
that
might
be
coming
and
then
it
manifests
in
usually
the
shorter
term
functional
plans
that
they
develop.
W
So
if
you
remember
groups
like
Transportation
or
utilities
or
police,
they
have
shorter
term
plans
with
their
needs
of
both
Staffing
and
infrastructure.
So
utilities
is
a
good
example
that
we're
working
with
them
on
knowing
the
order
of
magnitude
that
we're
planning
for
and
then
they
do
need
to
get
the
functional
plans
that
get
to
the
exact
infrastructure
and
the
dollars
that
you're
talking
about
to
actually
build
those.
Z
I
just
want
to
confirm
I
believe
that
you
did
say
that
in
the
presentation,
but
in
the
direction
it
says:
continued,
Council
discussion
and
Direction
on
feis
preferred
alternative,
but
I
know
when
you
were
talking
about
cooking.
Z
V
One
more
time,
thank
you.
Thank
you
for
that
question.
Yeah
I
do
want
to
emphasize
that
we've
kept
the
term
preferred
alternative,
because
that's
how
we've
that's
what
we've
used
and
that's
the
planning
commission's
recommendation
for
preferred
alternative,
so
we're
just
trying
to
be
consistent
in
terms
of
that
reference,
but
we're
not
asking
the
council
to
select
a
preferred
alternative
or
decide
on
a
preferred
alternative.
Z
We
did
get
some
questions
camp
that
came
in
in
email,
asking
questions
about
the
planning
data
of
how
we
came
up
with
the
the
different
information
that
goes
into
the
feis
and
I
think
it
would
be
helpful
for
those
that
may
not
have
seen
that
information
that
really
came
from
the
vision,
2050
and
the
regional
growth
management
board.
Z
Because
when
we
look
at
the
summary
of
the
deis
Alternatives
impacts
and
mitigation,
a
number
of
the
options
say
same
as
this
one
same
as
this
one.
But
that's
only
because
we
haven't
actually
done
the
more
deeper
analysis.
Is
that
correct?
So
when
we
get
to
the
additional
analysis,
there
will
be
enough
information
for
us
to
have
a
comparative
analysis
of
all
these
different
options.
V
I
appreciate
the
question
a
lot
of
what's
in
the
in
the
draft
Eis
excuse
me
is
more
of
a
qualitative
analysis,
as
I
was
explaining
earlier
in
the
green
space.
So
it's
it's
comparing
the
different
ones
in
terms
of
the
overall
General
impact.
It
doesn't
necessarily
quantify
each
of
those
for
some
it
does,
but
not
for
all
of
them
and
there's
a
whole
list
of
items
that
are
where
included
in
the
draft
Eis
that
was
used
to
analyze
each
of
those
other
four
Alternatives,
the
no
action
and
the
three
Alternatives.
V
So
the
preferred
alternative
will
get
the
analysis,
the
same
analysis
that
those
four
did
in
those
same
areas.
So
there
were
things
like
land
use
and
urban
form,
relationship
to
other
plans,
population
and
employment,
housing,
air
quality,
noise,
Transportation
public
facilities,
so
the
the
preferred
alternative
will
be
analyzed
for
each
of
those
things
as
well,
so
at
the
same
level
as
the
other
four
is
there
anything
you
want
to
add
to
that
Emil.
A
D
You
I
want
to
follow
up
with
Mike.
You
mentioned
the
comparison
analogy
of
compared
to
cooking
I.
Think
that
this
is
a
lot
more
difficult
and
challenging
and
to
understand
as
the
cooking
is
so.
But
it's
it's
a
good
analogy.
D
You
you
talk
about.
You
know
Alternatives
one,
two,
three
and
a
hybrid
I
believe
that
you
know
it's
a
kind
of
general
and
confusing
to
mostly
to
the
public
as
well
very
confusing
I.
Believe
words
are
important
when
you
say
alternative
when
people
think
about
it.
It's
like
it's
a
The
Proposal
we're
looking
at
it's
what
we're
chosen.
We
haven't
chosen
yet
based
on
what
you
just
said,
so
I
think
it's
important
to
make
sure
it's
clear.
So
people
don't
have
the
impression.
Well,
it's
the
alternative.
D
It
so
make
sure
it's
clear
and
when
you
talk
about
tree
canopy
I
appreciate
you
are
having
a
map.
You
know
to
identify
the
three
canopies
one
word
I
hear
in
your
in
your
description
in
your
PowerPoint.
Is
a
statement
make
tree.
Canopy
is
foundational
to
the
identity
of
Bellevue.
V
I'll
start
on
that
one
and
I'll
ask
others
to
chime
in
as
well
I
think
what
was
what
was
intended
from
that
statement
is
some
of
what
we
heard
from
the
council,
and
we've
also
heard
from
the
public,
is
how
important
tree
canopy
is
to
Bellevue,
certainly
from
an
environmental
standpoint,
but
also
just
from
an
identity
standpoint,
because
Bellevue
is
seen
as
a
city
in
a
park.
So
I
think
that's
what
what
that
was
capturing
right.
D
W
W
V
W
On
the
the
community
input,
when
we
ask
people
to
talk
about
what
they
valued
or
identified
as
their
neighborhood
a
lot
of
times,
the
tree
canopy
was
brought
up
as
a
key
issue.
D
D
Process
yeah
specifically,
so
that
we
don't
have
to
go
check
in
the
other.
One
I
really
appreciate
the
deputy
mayor's
question.
I
I
believe
that
we
talk
about
definitions.
We
talk
about
density
or
what
is
the
maximum
density?
What
does
that
mean?
Who
defines
it?
Where
do
we
document
it?
How
do
we
have
a
approved
or
discuss
specifically
by
the
city
council
or
by
the
community
in
general?
What
kind
of
conversation
have
we
had
on
it?
Otherwise,
we
we
don't
know
what
it
is.
D
So
it's
important
whether
it
would
be
35
000
units,
60,
000
units,
90
000
units
or
whatever
it
is.
How
do
we
arrive
at
that?
When
do
we
discuss
it?
How
do
we
decide
that
is
to
go
we're
shooting
for
because
everything
we
do
according
to
what
we're
just
saying,
we're
basically
laying
out
a
whole
bunch
of
alternate
options.
D
D
D
Summarize
it
yeah
so
that
we
have
that's
what
we're
talking
about.
We
erase
these
questions
at
the
council
meetings.
We're
racing
it
now.
So
let's
please
do
that.
Okay
and
then
I'd
love
to
hear
the
timeline.
It's
very
good
20
years,
but
also
you
mentioned
as
dynamic,
so
I
like
to
see
what
do
we
see
as
the
this
determination
decision,
we'll
be
making
what
provision
we're
making
for
a
certain
Dynamic
changes
which
we
are
forecasting
I
like
that
also
emails
mentioned
forecasting,
so
I'd
like
to
know
what
forecasts
we
have
made.
A
D
We
are
wasting
time
by
making
going
back
and
forth.
Let's
just
go
straight
to
it.
Okay,
you
mentioned
about.
You
know
that
the
operation,
the
functional
fire
department,
as
we
move
forward,
formerly
them.
You
know
in
this
process
I
like
that.
That's
good,
but
I,
think
we
need
to
know
exactly
when
it
happens.
What
we
know,
what
information
do
we
have
and
how
do
we
decide?
We
want
more
one
less
or
whatever
it's
ongoing
process.
Okay,
thank
you.
E
Questions
and
one
comment:
the
first
Mike
I
appreciated
the
food
analogy
and
I'm
just
gonna
pick
up
on
that
and
check
my
understanding.
You
said
that
alternative
zero
one
two
and
three
so
set
all
the
ingredients
on
the
table
and
that
then
the
preferred
which
I
could
I
think
we
should
probably
call
alternative
four,
although
I
know
we've
been
using
the
preferred
that
there's
no
new
ingredients
added
to
that
is,
is
that
did
I
get
get
that
right.
E
With
this,
because
for
18
months,
Alternatives
zero
one,
two
and
three
had
certain
things
in
there
there
are
some
things,
an
alternative
for
like
neighborhood
centers.
That
makes
you
slow
that
were
never
in
any
of
the
alternatives
for
the
last
18
months,
same
thing,
with
some
of
the
residential
things
that
we're
considering
so
those
actually,
if
we
added
them
which
the
Planning
Commission
did
not
suggest,
we
do.
That
would
be
adding
a
new
ingredient
to
the
table
at
the
very
last
minute,
correct.
H
V
Wasn't
Perfect
by
any
stretch
and
I
and
I
knew
it
wouldn't
be,
but
this
is
but
part
of
the
point
that
I
wanted
to
make
also
is
that
we
are
using
a
lot
of
the
ingredients
that
we've
already
tried
in
the
other
options
or
Alternatives.
So
this
is
adding
some
other
ingredients
that
that
we
want
to
test
out,
but
it's
also
combining
some
different
ingredients
to
see
how
they
work
together.
Great.
E
V
E
We
get
there.
Okay,
so
I
just
want
to
have
another
really
Broad
understanding
checks.
So
when
the
city
first
adopted
the
growth
targets
of
35
000
new
housing
units,
70
000,
new
jobs,
I,
remember
you
know,
I
was
on
the
committee,
the
regional
committee
that
worked
on
that
I.
Remember
us
thinking,
you
know
gulp.
E
This
is
going
to
be
really
hard
because,
as
we're
zoned
today,
we
only
have
capacity
for
maybe
27
000
housing
units,
but
didn't
ever
think
the
jobs
were
going
to
be
an
issue,
but
my
understanding-
and
it
hasn't
been
clearly
laid
out
here,
but
my
understanding
is
that
because
of
the
up
Zone
that
we
did
at
East,
Main
and
because
of
the
house
bills
11,
10
and
1337.
E
E
So
I
think
that
that's
important
for
Council
to
to
know
and
understand
that
Alternatives
one
through
four
are
all
about
growth
targets
plus
and
some
of
them
are
plus,
plus,
plus,
plus
plus
plus.
So
then,
my
comment
is
that
is
for
both
the
public
and
the
council,
because
I
know
staff
knows
this.
I
found
I.
Thank
you
for
providing
this
land
use.
Key
I
thought
this
was
so
interesting
because
I
didn't
understand
even
last
week
and
I'm,
the
liaison
with
the
Planning
Commission.
E
What
some
of
these
designations
meant
I
thought
that
our
Suburban
was
more
dense
than
Arlo
because
it
sounds
like
it
would
be,
but
our
Suburban
includes
duplexes,
triplexes
and
cottage
and
are
low,
which
sounds
like
it's
one:
acre
lots
or
half
acre
lots
is
actually
includes
multi-family,
so
that
is
actually
a
higher
density
than
our
Suburban
than
RL,
which
is
the
large
lot
one
to
1.8
Acres
so
having
this
next
to
us.
I
would
encourage
the
public
to
look
at
this
and
my
colleagues
to
look
at
this.
This
really
helps
me
understand
more.
E
E
V
Thing
to
the
to
the
comment
about
the
the
growth,
the
different
Alternatives
of
the
amount
of
growth-
that's
in
all
of
those
while
it
is
correct
that
we
have
the
capacity
in
our
our
no
action
alternative,
a
lot
of
the
growth
that
we're
proposing
is
in
the
Wilburton
sub-area.
So
that's
one
reason
that
we're
seeing
that
that
increase
over
what
our
current
plan
is.
It's
not
saying
that
it's
all
there,
but
that's
a
significant
part
of
that
growth.
V
That's
what
that's
what
this
is
about.
This
is
this
is
the
the
council's
vision,
you're
all
you're,
the
ultimate
Chef.
If
I
can
continue
that
analogy,
you
get
to
you
get
to
decide
what
the
what
the
final
dish
looks
like
and
that
will
come
to
you
from
the
Planning
Commission
and
the
other
boards
and
commissions,
as
Emile
mentioned
they'll,
be
doing
a
lot
of
work
in
in
going
through
all
of
this
information.
V
That's
in
the
draft
Eis
the
final
Eis,
the
other
technical
studies
that
were
done
as
part
of
that
and
the
public
input
that
will
still
be
a
part
of
that
process.
There's
a
lot
more
of
that
to
happen
before
that
comes
back
to
you,
Wilburton
will
come
to
you
first
and
then
the
the
comprehensive
plan
will
come
to
you
several
months
later.
Thank.
U
Actually,
just
the
statement
I
just
want
to
say
that
I
really
appreciate
your
clarifying
this.
This
is
this
is
a
very
complex
piece
and
it
is
a
you
know,
you're
going
from
just
you
know,
making
some
doing
some
scrambled
eggs
and
adding
a
lot
of
stuff
to
it.
You
know
making
it
better
and
I
think
we're
on
a
good
path
and
I
hope
everybody's
gotten.
U
U
So
that's
that's
a
much
better
atmosphere
than
we
had
a
couple
of
weeks
ago,
where
it
was
kind
of
of
and
looking
at
things
where
something's
been
made.
Different
expectations
were
changed
or
whatever
so
I
just
want
to
say,
I'm
really
pleased
with
the
way
we're
going
on
this
now,
and
so,
let's
get
down
to
really
digging
into
the
issues
and
what
we
need
to
look
at
now
and
go
forward,
but
thanks
very
much.
A
Okay,
thank
you.
So
let's
go
ahead
and
look
at
the
Wilburton
study
area
slide.
If
we
can,
which
is
19.
there
you
go.
So
what
is
proposed
on
the
slide
is
what
we
kind
of
had
a
consensus
for
last
week
and
I'm
going
to
start
us
off
by
saying.
I
feel
good
about
this.
So
we've
already
studied
Alternatives
two
three
and
one,
and
now
we're
considering
the
hybrid
between
two
and
three
and
it's
not
making
a
decision.
D
I
had
a
lot
of
concern
about
this
last
time
we
discussed
this.
As
we
mentioned,
we
have
Greek
or
this
General
statements
that
we're
making.
We
need
to
have
data.
We
need
to
have.
What
is
you
know
the
facts?
What
do
we
need?
What
are
we
looking
for
and
how
many
units
do
we
think
we
have
you
talk
about
conservation,
I,
don't
know
what
conservation
has
for
uberton.
D
We
have.
We
have
a
photo,
maybe
the
overall
the
city,
but
my
purpose,
my
contention
is
we
we
need
to
maximize
the
potential
of
Wilburton.
If
we
do
that,
you
know
I,
don't
know
what
our
kinds
of
subjective
is,
if
it's
35
000
I,
just
heard
from
comes
with
Robert
said
we're
already
meeting
it.
So
what
sport
do
we
have
to
do
if
we're
looking
at
seventy
thousand?
Well,
okay,
so
what's
the
momentum
area
can
provide
if
we
wouldn't
can
provide
the
rest
of
it
then
release
the
rest
of
the
city
alone.
X
X
We
have
heard
that
the
hybrid
is
a
hybrid
of
Alternatives,
two
and
three,
and
it's
slightly
different
from
alternative
three
and
then
it
looks
at
slightly
lower
density
in
some
areas
to
the
east
of
the
East
rail
trail
within
again
within
the
study
area,
and
it
looks
at
additional
opportunity
for
residential,
which
would
be
more
similar
to
alternative
to
where
we
looked
at
more
opportunity
for
residential
of
a
variety
of
scales.
So
that
is
what
is
in
the
preferred
alternative.
X
A
And
so
I
understand
it's
my
understanding.
The
deputy
mayor
informed
me
of
this
as
well
that
this
study
that
we're
proposing
will
provide
us
the
data
that
will
help
us
make
a
decision
as
to
which
direction
we
want
to
ultimately
go.
Yes,
that's
correct,
okay,
so
this
is
a
fact
seeking
action
that
we're
asking
you
to
do.
If
we
go
that
direction,
correct.
D
V
D
A
A
Do
have
it
in
front
of
us
in
our
packet
here,
if
you
it
looks
like
this
and
it's
page
20
on
it.
So
are
there
any
comments
or
questions
on
what's
proposed
for
mixed
use,
centers.
A
And
that's
21:
if
you
get
there.
V
V
So
Emil
do
you
want
to
walk
through
we
first
we
have
the
neighborhood
center
building
types.
Just
as
a
reminder.
We
showed
you
this
last
week
just
to
give
you
a
sense
of
the
different
scale
for
the
the
stories
that
that
we're
talking
about
and
as
council
member
Robertson
pointed
out,
we
have
only
analyzed
the
low
rise,
the
mixed
use
low
for
all
of
those
six
neighborhood
shopping
centers.
So
the
the
question
we're
asking
for
some
additional
guidance
from
the
council
tonight,
because
there
were
lots
of
different
comments
last
week.
V
We
want
to
make
sure
that
we
get
some
clarity
around
what
it
is.
You
would
like
us
to
look
at
whether
that
is
just
certain
centers
or
all
of
the
centers.
If
you
want
us
to
look
at
the
full
range
with
the
mixed
use,
medium,
which
goes
up
seven
to
ten
stories,
there
was
also
some
conversation
last
week
about
maybe
looking
at
something
that's
less
than
that,
maybe
in
the
five
to
seven
range,
looking
at
each
of
those
and
again
nothing's
final
this
evening.
This
is
just
to
study
it
and
see
if
it
applies.
A
You've
already
gathered
information
for
the
low,
which
is
two
to
four
stories:
low
rise
and
now
you're
asking.
If
we
want
you
to
gather
more
information
for
what
shopping
center
at
what
level
correct.
Okay,
any
comments
or
questions,
let's
start
with
councilmember
Robertson
and
then
go
on
to
council.
V
It
looks
like
it
might
be.
Three
stories
is.
E
It
three
it
looks
yeah,
it
might
be
three
okay,
but
it
could
go
a
floor
above
that
and-
and
so
some
of
these
neighborhood
centers
were
CB
community
business,
which
is
what
crossroads
and
Factoria
some
of
the
more
intense
shopping.
Centers
are
also
zoned,
and
some
like
Newport
Hills
and
Bell
East
were
in
Northtown
or
neighborhood
business,
which
is
smaller,
lower
yeah
rise
and
the
what
was
studied
in
Alternatives
one
through
three
was
making
them
all.
Whether
CB
or
NB
makes
you
slow,
which
is
two
to
four
stories
which
I
I.
W
It
yeah,
as
we
looked
at
the
the
current
definitions
of
community
business
or
CB
or
neighborhood
business
or
MB,
it
does
appear
that
they
would
be
a
a
slight
up,
Zone
based
on
if
the
existing
zoning
was
CB
or
MB.
W
W
Okay
with
the
Proviso,
it's
not
more
than
two
stories
in
total.
E
W
45
feet
is
the
zoning,
so
that
would
equate
to
four
stories.
E
Yes,
so
so
the
first
picture
there
is
taller
than
any
of
the
ones
that
were
NB,
which
I
think
is
Lakemont
Newport,
Hills,
Bell,
East
and
North
Town.
That's
a
full
story
taller
than
his
current
zoning
today
right
and
that's
actually
only
three,
so
it
would
be
double
the
height
of
current
zoning
if
the
mixed
loose
low
goes
through
so
and
then
the
CB
at
four
stories,
this
would
be
kind
of
the
same
for
them.
E
W
It's
gonna
relate
more
to
the
Luca
that
we
do
down
the
road
because,
as
you
know,
the
the
CB
and
MB
haven't
been
updated
in
really
years.
So
it
is
a
thought
that
if
they
were
both
under
that
mixed
use,
low
designation,
we
would
want
to
go
back
and
kind
of
modernize
and
rethink
the
CB
and
NB
land
use
codes.
E
Okay,
so
maybe
more
housing
would
be
allowed
and
things
like
that
make
true
mixed
use
with
housing
and
Commercial.
Okay,
so
I
wanted
to
understand
that
so
I
feel
pretty
strongly
that
for
18
months
we've
looked
at
this
as
mixed
use,
low,
which,
particularly
with
the
NB
centers,
is
double
the
con
height
of
what
is
allowed
today
and
I
feel
like
it's
a
last
minute
change
the
Planning
Commission
didn't
recommend
it.
E
One
of
them
was
a
site-specific
request
of
that
23
request,
which
the
staff
says
we
shouldn't
do,
I,
don't
think
we
should
do
that
particular
I
feel
like
that's.
What's
been
advertised
in
in
Alternatives
one
through
three,
we
sh
we
a
lot
of
the
neighborhoods,
don't
like
mixed
juice
low,
because
it's
an
increase
but
they're
willing
to
accept
the
increase
as
something
that's,
not
a
huge
huge
change.
I
mean
double
the
height,
but
still
not
a
huge
huge
change.
Mixed-Use
medium,
which
is
seven
to
ten
stories,
is
a
significant,
significant
shift.
E
E
You
know
I
would
just
assume
stay
with
mixed
use
low,
but
if
we
are
going
to
do
the
five
to
seven
stories,
which
is
on
the
C,
it
should
be
limited
to
the
CB
designations,
not
any
of
the
ones
that
are
NB,
because
that
would
be
still
an
increase
for
them,
but
it
would
be
a
significant
increase
for
the
ones
that
were
Envy.
Remember,
CB
is
Crossroads
in
Factoria.
E
Those
are
much
bigger,
they're,
not
neighborhood
shopping
centers,
those
are
really
commercial
centers
and
they
too
shouldn't
be
treated
the
same
as
one
another.
So
I
would
encourage
the
council
to
accept
the
Planning
Commission
recommendation
to
accept
what
was
in
Alternatives
one
through
three
and
go
with
mixed-use
low,
but
if
you
want
to
depart
from
that,
look
at
the
five
to
seven
stories
on
the
ones
that
were
zoned
CB,
but
not
the
ones
that
were
zoned
Envy.
Thank.
C
AA
Cb
versus
NB,
I
guess
my
question
on
any:
are
there
any
neighborhood
centers
that
have
the
density
of
medium
currently
in
terms
of
residential
units?
Maybe.
W
AA
V
AA
It
I
guess
what
I
would
it's,
instead
of
maybe
because
I
think
the
alternative
was
to
go
through
each
one.
I
guess
I
would
just
propose
that
we
look
at
five
to
seven
across
all
of
them,
even
if
we're
not
going
to
use
it
as
a
study
it.
It
would
give
us
a
sense
of
sort
of
the
the
book
in
if
you
will
for
each
of
the
neighborhood
centers
and
provide
the
data.
AA
A
Okay,
thank
you,
deputy
mayor.
C
V
I
just
wanted
to
add
one
other
piece
of
information
that
is
pertinent
to
the
discussion
later
on
we're
going
to
talk
about
the
site-specific
request
and
I
just
wanted
to
point
out
that
four
of
those
are
specific
requests
in
neighborhood
centers.
So
just
so
you
know
we're
actually
resolving,
hopefully
through
this
discussion,
those
four
at
least,
but
those
were
specific
requests
that
came
in
from
those
four
centers
and
that
was
Kelsey
Creek,
Newport,
Hills,
Lake,
Hills
and.
Y
A
Well,
I'm
not
I've
been
looking
at
the
map,
while
we're
chatting
here
in
the
neighborhood
business
designations
go
to
Newport,
Northtown
and
Bell
East
right.
A
Community
business,
Kelsey,
Creek,
Lake,
Hills
and
Lakemont
am
I,
leaving
anything
else,
that's
correct,
so
your
councilmember
Robertson
is
asking
for
a
distinction
between
those
two
and
Council
barksville,
saying,
let's
just
do
all
of
them
at
the
medium
level.
Yes,
for
the
study
for
the
study,
yes,
okay,
deputy
mayor
or
no
did
you
want
to
say
something
that.
J
Sure
thank
you
here.
Yeah
good
conversation
so
far
and
I
appreciate
the
some
of
the
the
data
on
this
and
and
discussion
around
it.
For
me,
though,
look
I've
spoken
to
a
lot
of
residents
and
many
residents
are
very
concerned
about
just
just
Avalanche
of
density
and
we've
always
had
this.
J
The
growth
goes
in
the
growth
corridors.
Let's
keep
the
density
away
from
the
neighborhoods
and
I
feel
and
I
know.
It's
just
a
study,
but
I'm
also
just
concerned
that
we're
having
a
study
going
beyond
the
mixed
use,
low
rise,
I
I,
you
know
I,
think
that
was
the
recommendation
of
the
Planning
Commission
I
think
they
had
the
the
the
right
idea
that
they
had
the
right
recommendation
about
keeping
it
in
the
mixed
view.
J
Slow
rise,
I
think
that's
what
residents
want
those
residents
that
are
going
to
be
mostly
impacted
by
that
increased
density
to
immediately
to
the
to
their
neighborhood
and
time
and
time
again,
residents
are
very
concerned
about.
They
expect
it
in
the
growth
corridors.
That's
fine!
They
don't
expect
it
at
their
neighborhood
local
Shopping,
Center
or
stores
Etc.
So,
as
councilman
Robertson
has
already
pointed
out
regarding
the
the
the
amount
of
growth
that
we're
already
going
to
hit
our
targets,
Etc
there's
no
reason
to
add
this
additional
density
to
our
neighborhoods.
J
A
You,
council,
members
on.
Z
Yes,
thank
you,
I
was
trying
to
understand
also
so
I
believe.
Last
time
we
said
that
we
were
only
talking
about
the
shopping
centers
at
this
point,
so
the
way
stations,
retail,
Incorporated
and
Standalone
complexes
and
undefined
with
no
retail
anchor.
Those
are
not
in
discussion
correct
right,
so
it
is
just
the
one
two
three
four
five
six
different
shopping
centers
that
are
part
of
the
conversation
and
then
I
also
want
to
make
sure
that
I
understand.
Z
So,
if
we
don't
do
any
analysis
now,
then
we
will
actually
not
have
any
type
of
comparative
analysis
of
what
any
of
this
would
look
like.
So
if
we
want
to
have
any
kind
of
data
informed
decisions,
we
wouldn't
actually
have
that
data.
Is
that
correct?
So
if
we
only
looked
at
the
mul,
then
none
of
the
other
options
would
be
would
have
any
data
for
comparison.
Is
that
correct.
Z
And
can
you
just
make
sure
that
I'm
clear
on
and
when
we
actually
do
analysis?
So
we
have
comparison,
we're
going
to
do
an
economic
analysis,
that's
site-specific
to
e
to
the
shopping
centers
we're
going
to
do
a
transportation
analysis,
tree
canopy,
environmental
impacts.
So
all
the
things
that
we
had
in
the
packet
of
information
in
that
other
really
lengthy
table
it
having
those
studied
actually
gives
us
the
comparisons
with
data,
because
without
it
we
don't
actually
have
any
more
data.
Is
that
right.
W
Well,
the
the
final
Eis
will
look
at
whatever
the
preferred
alternative
ends
up
being
it'll,
be
able
to
compare
it
back
to
the
draft
Eis
alternatives.
Some
of
those
other
topics
as
I
think
as
Michael
pointed
out.
They
are
we're
doing
it
at
a
city-wide
level.
Z
Okay
and
I
know
when
we
were
it's.
The
affordable
housing
isn't
part
of
the
discrete
conversation
right
now
because
we're
just
looking
at
these
different
options.
But
ultimately,
what
we
have
heard
in
the
past
is
that
when
we
get
to
kind
of
the
the
LM
of
the
five
to
seven
stories
is
when
potentially
we
can
have
a
five
over
one
or
five
over
two,
where
the
potential
for
affordable
housing
is
more
of
a
potential
than
a
10-story
building
or
a
two-story
building.
Z
So
I
just
want
to
check
that
because
it
was
something
that,
as
we've
talked
about
affordable
housing,
there's
been
a
lot
of
conversation
about
at
what
scale
do
the
financials
actually
pencil
out
to
be
able
to
build,
affordable,
housing
and
I?
Know
we're
not
talking
about
that
particular
thing
right
now,
but
without
the
analysis
we
won't
actually
have
any
kind
of
com.
Comparison.
W
Oh,
that
is
yeah,
that's
correct,
it
would
be
whatever
ends
up
being
in
the
preferred
alternative
would
be
what
we
were
studying
for
those
areas,
and
there
clearly
is
a
relationship
to
when
up
zones
happen,
and
our
other
item
on
the
on
the
schedule
is
the
affordable
housing
and
looking
at
either
voluntary
or
mandatory
programs.
When
Hope
zones
occur.
A
Z
I
think
we
would
I
think
it
would
be
prudent
for
us
to
have
information
so
that
we
can
evaluate
what
an
mu,
I
guess.
Lm
looks
like
from
the
standpoint
of
a
comparison
for
some
of
these
neighborhood
centers.
A
C
U
Well,
I
think
if
we're
studying
these
and
looking
for
the
future-
and
we
it's
going
to
take
a
long
time
to
get
these
things
put
in
place,
I
think
we
would
be
better
serve
to
actually
take
a
look
at
these
and
see
and
with
the
possibility
of
affordable
housing
coming
in
and
one
of
the
issues
and
I
do
know
that.
Yes,
there
are
a
lot
of
people
in
the
communities.
Don't
want
to
change
from.
U
Enactment,
that's
going
to
change
somewhat
too
so
I
think
we
shortchange
ourselves
and
I
think
we
shortchanged
the
neighborhoods.
If
we
don't
give
a
chance
to
look
at
this
and
take
what
is
what
can
be
done
now
or
what
can
be
done
later,
make
a
decision
now
on
something
that
impacts
us
five
six
years
down
the
line
it
kind
of,
then
we
have
to
go
back
and
do
a
lot
more
work
to
catch
up
with
it.
So
I
think
something
that
would
get
us
to
look
at.
U
This
is
just
looking
at
it,
but
I
think
it'll
educate
us
a
lot
more
and-
and
this
is
very
important
to
have
good
you
know
places
in
the
community
and
it's
also
important
in
terms
of
affordable
housing
and
other
aspects,
so
I'm
I
think
taking
a
look
at
it.
Just
won't
hurt
anything
I
think
it'll
help
us
a
lot
so.
V
F
A
A
D
D
That
we
do
low
for
the
I
can
go
with
both,
but
I
prefer
council
member
Robinson's
proposal,
because
that's
why
I
was
so
passionate
about
pushing
so
much
on
the
Wilburton
maximum
density,
because
I
agree
with
WD
mayor
that
we
need
to
be
looking
at
growth
at
the
growth
growth,
Center
urban
center
and
I.
Believe
the
Wilburton
is
the
center
and
Neighborhood
Center
does
not.
It
doesn't
meet
like
high
standard
and
criteria.
D
So
if
you
know
if
we
can
take
a
look
at
even
higher
density
forward-
and
these
may
not
even
be
a
necessary
conversation,
so
right
so
I
support
the
Jennifer
Robinson's
limit,
lower
density,
but
I
agree
that
we
need
to
focus
on
maximizing
density
in
growth,
centers.
A
Okay,
thank
you,
so
I
I'm,
you
know
getting
to
go
last
now.
My
feeling
is
that
I
would
like
to
study
it,
but
does
that
mean
that
that
is
where
we're
going
to
go?
I
mean
what
is
the
advantage
or
disadvantage
I
guess
what
is
I
already
know
the
advantage
of
studying
it.
What's
disadvantage
of
studying
it
for
the
areas
that
were
maybe
want
to
stay
lower
than
what
we're
studying
it
for.
V
A
V
And
that
would
be
part
of
the
information
that
the
Planning
Commission
would
use
to
determine
where
this
would
apply
and
make
that
recommendation
to
the
city
council.
The
commission
may
decide,
at
the
end
of
of
it
all
to
stick
with
their
original
recommendation
to
leave
them
all
at
mixed
use
low.
They
may
come
back
and
suggest
that
some
or
recommend
that
some
of
them
would
be
at
that
mixed
use,
five
to
seven
or
even
well.
V
A
V
There's
always
the
annual
amendment
process
and
that's
been
used
in
the
past
for
different
requests,
and
that
would
still
be
a
possibility
in
the
future.
So
it
just
means
that
it
wouldn't
be
part
of
this
update.
It
would
have
to
be
an
individual
request
that
would
come
back
at
some
point
in
the
future
or
wait
until
the
next
update
yeah.
E
I
think
that
the
downside
to
studying
something
we
wouldn't
have
any
intention
of
doing
is
that
it
gives
false
expectation
to
the
developers
and
it
gives
false
alarm
to
the
neighborhoods
so
and
I
think
that
the
preferred
alternative,
the
reason
it's
being
referred
to
as
the
preferred
is
it's
meant
to
give
not
just
more
information
but
better
information
of
what
we
think
we
might
do.
So
if
we
go
with
this
preferred
alternative.
This
is
what
the
impacts
will
be.
E
So
just
getting
more
and
more
information
is
not
necessarily
a
good
thing
if
it's
not
pertinent,
so
that's
where
I
think
putting
something
in
there.
That
is
unrealistic
to
happen
right
now,
like
I
said
it
just
causes
expectation
and
alarm
depending
on
people's
perspective,
and
so
for
that
reason,
I
I,
like
I,
said
I.
My
first
preference
was
mixed.
You
slow
everywhere
on
these,
but
I
think
the
the
compromise
position
is
the
five
to
seven
on
the
CB
zoned
properties,
and
it
sounds
like
that's
what
the
will
of
the
council
is.
AA
Yeah
I
think
I
see
the
direction
we're
headed
in,
but
I
guess
I
would
just
say
you
know,
as
I
understood
it.
Looking
at
the
at
a
little
bit
higher
level
helps
us
understand
potential
impacts.
It
doesn't
necessarily
mean
that
we
would
that
it
would
come
back
with
that
recommendation,
but
at
least
you
know,
the
the
council
and
the
Planning
Commission
would
have
the
data
that
they
need.
Just
think.
That
would
be
helpful.
Thank
you.
J
Yeah
I
think
part
of
the
disadvantage.
Is
that
we're
saying
that
I
think
I
think
we're
getting
away
from
the
way
we've
managed
growth
in
the
City
previously
I
think
if,
if
the
the
fact
that
we're
signaling
that
we're
now
looking
at
density
in
neighborhoods
I
think
that's
sending
the
wrong
message
and
density
at
any
cost?
J
That's
that's
not
what
that's
not
the
reason
why
people
move
here
and
live
here
and
work
here
and
go
to
school
here.
Our
our
neighborhoods
are
a
treasure
and
we
need
to
protect
them.
Having
said
that,
I
can
compromise
and
go
with
councilman
Robertson's
recommendation,
but
it's
it's
somewhat
silly
to
think
that
it's
going
to
come
back
to
us,
be
not
silly,
but
it's
going
to
come
back
to
us
and
let
the
Planning
Commission
is
is
going
to
not
follow
what
the
council
says.
J
Right
I
mean
if,
if,
if,
if
we're
all
up
here
saying
we
want
more
density
and
and
and
more
stories,
most
likely,
that's
something
that
they'll
come
back
to
us
when
the
the
actual
policy
comes
before
us.
So
so
that's
how
these
things
can
snowball
in.
In
my
estimation,
so
so
again,
I
I'd
be
willing
to
compromise
with
councilman
Robertson's
suggestion,
but
my
preference
would
still
be
to
keep
it
mixed
use,
low
rise.
Z
Yes,
thank
you.
You
know
my
My
Hope
Is,
that
when
we
look
at
the
economic
analysis
that
when
we
get
to
that
topic
about
affordable
housing,
that
we
really
are
looking
at
how
to
incent
or
look
at
ways
that
developments
can
be
built
for
affordable
housing,
so
that
the
neighborhoods
that
we
love
are
more
affordable
for
more
people.
Z
And
then
the
part
that
we
haven't
talked
about
yet
tonight.
That
I
would
like
to
make
sure
is
considered
in
here,
because
I
didn't
see
it
in
the
other,
which
we
hear
a
lot
about
in
the
shopping.
Centers
is
anti-displacement.
So
I
would
like
to
better
understand.
As
we
move
along
in
the
process
where,
in
the
process,
we
might
be
able
to
look
at
some
policies
that
incent
or
phase
development,
in
a
way
that
we
don't
end
up
with
anti-displacement
of
the
very
neighborhood
Shops
and
and
restaurants,
that
we
love
to
frequent
and
support.
Z
So
I,
don't
know
if
you
can
provide
any
of
that
context
here.
But
I
think
it
would
be
an
important
piece
that
I
didn't
see
in
our
PowerPoint
presentation
tonight.
That
I
would
like
to
get
a
sense
and
make
sure
that
this
is
something
we
are
going
to
look
at.
So
just
like,
we
have
tree
canopy
and
looking
at
environmental
impacts.
Those
those
neighborhood
local
businesses
are
precious
to
us
and
is
what
makes
the
neighborhood
so
great.
V
Draft
Eis
did
look
at
displacement
potential
in
rep
for
residential
as
well
as
commercial
in
these
areas,
and
there
are
some
mitigation
measures
that
are
noted
in
there,
most
of
which
I
think
would
be
addressed
through
a
land
use
code,
particularly
if
we're
talking
about
incentives
or
those
types
of
things
or
other
requirements
that
may
be
put
on
on
Redevelopment,
likewise
with
the
affordable
housing,
but
I
think
there
are
also
policies
that
that
would
need
to
be
in
place
to
provide
the
basis
for
that
for
that
code
in
the
future.
Okay,.
Z
Z
You
know
my
sense
is
that
I
can
hear
from
the
council
that
that
isn't,
where
we're
headed
and
I'm
just
saying
that
I
want
to
make
sure
that,
as
we
look
at
those
neighborhood
centers
that
we're
focusing
on
two
of
the
main
things
that
we
want
to
do,
which
is
you
know,
look
at
anti-displacement
and
affordable
housing.
Z
You
know
my
initial
discussion
was
that
I
always
think
it's
helpful
to
have
data
informed
decisions
and
being
able
to
look
at
Alternatives,
so
we
actually
can
do
comparable
analysis
is.
Is
important.
I
also
am
very
pragmatic
about
the
fact
that,
if
that's
not
where
the
council
wants
to
go
as
a
whole,
then
that's
fine.
U
Well,
actually,
I
think
I
think
got
some
good
answers
to
this
and
I
think
we're
going
in
a
path
that
eventually
will
be
better
for
all
those
around
and
things
will
change
I
I.
Don't
think
it
really
makes
a
difference
in
a
sense
that
we're
going
to
look
at
these
I
think
it
would
be
better
to
have
taken
a
look
at
a
higher
density,
particularly
with
the
possibility
of
apartments
above
that
and
all
but
I
think.
U
This
is
not
something
that's
going
to
happen
tomorrow
and
a
lot
of
conversation
will
go
forward
and
we
have
opportunity
to
come
back
at
it.
I
think
neighborhoods
will
begin
to
look
at
their
about
shopping
centers,
and
if
you
know
the
neighbors
want
to
make
changes,
we
can
we
can
work
on
that
and
I
think
this
will
come
come
about
at
some
point
in
a
good
way
for
everybody,
so
I'm
fine
going
with
councilmember
Robertson's
Robinson
Robertson's.
D
You
I
believe
you
will
hear
from
the
speakers
as
well.
Transparency
trusts
are
very
important
and
I
hope
that
part
of
that
is
expectation
to
provide.
You
know
consistency
that
people
can
trust
us,
so
I
feel
that
you
know.
I
would
hope
that
it
was
we
we
yeah
it's
realistic
to
stick
with
the
council
member
Robertson's.
You
know
low
rise
if
we
have
to.
D
Obviously,
if
the
need
is
there,
it's
a
different
story,
but
right
now,
based
on
what
I
I
hear,
we
are
in
pretty
good
shape,
so
I
will
stick
with
the.
A
A
Okay,
this
is
the
one
that
so
you
can
see
in
front
of
you
what
we
directed
from
last
week
and
if
you're,
okay
with
it,
you
don't
need
to
say
anything.
But
if
you
want
to
make
a
change
or
if
you
have
questions,
please
raise
your
hand
I'm,
not
seeing
any
so
I
assume
that
we're
all
good
with
that
as
written,
then
we
have
neighborhood
residential.
A
U
A
C
C
E
I'm
I'm
one
slide
ahead
to
the
Overlake
farms
and,
like
I,
said
when
I
at
the
beginning
of
the
night
on
this
I
thought
that
our
low
was
lower
than
our
suburban,
and
so,
when
I
spoke
about
this
last
time,
I
said
wait.
We
shouldn't
do
Arlo.
We
should
do
our
Suburban
throughout
here
and
then
all
of
a
sudden
it's
come
to
our
the
request
is
our
medium.
Our
medium
is
really
multi-family.
E
It's
multi-family
High,
the
high
end
of
multi-family,
medium
and
multi-family
high,
is
what
that
is,
and
our
low
is
single
family,
Urban,
residential
multi-family,
low
and
multi-family
medium.
So
I
think
that
Arlo
on
the
North
40
acres
is
plenty
because
that
still
has
some
multi-family
in
it,
as
well
as
it'll,
be
the
mix
of
the
missing
middle.
E
W
Just
for
that,
the
darker
yellow
colored
person
right
there
Arlo.
E
W
Well,
staff
recommendation
Remains
the
Same
from
when
we
took
it
to
the
Planning
Commission,
which
was
the
Arlo
we're
bringing
this
back
based
on
Council
desire
to
see
what
Overlake
Farms
was
was
requesting.
Okay,.
E
And
I
just
didn't
understand
what
even
was
recommended
so
I'm,
okay,
with
the
preferred
alternative
on
this,
as
it
is
because
I
think
that
that
adds
a
lot
of
density,
because,
right
now
it's
rll
what
would
be
R.
It's
like
one
acre
lots
right
under
today's
zoning.
E
So
yeah,
then
that
takes
a
R1
or
R
1.8
and
makes
it
basically
single
family,
Urban,
residential
multi-family,
little
multi-family,
medium,
so
I
think
that's
quite
a
lift.
I
think
it's
appropriate,
lift
I
think
this
is
going
to
be
a
great
development,
but
I
think
that
that's
that's
an
adequate
lift
in
my
opinion,
so
I
support
the
staff
and
plan
commission
recommendation
thanks.
A
Z
Okay,
so
I
think
I
also
want
to
have
clarity
as
well,
and
mainly
my
clarity
is
around
process,
so
this
particular
one.
We
have
a
preferred
alternative
and
a
request
from
Overlake
Farms.
How
is
this
different
than
all
these
ones
that
we're
going
to
be
talking
about
later
that
we
said
we're
not
going
to
consider
I
I
just
want
to
make
sure
that
we
are
treating
requests
in
an
equitable
way.
Z
W
Since
this
was
brought
up
by
the
council
last
week,
we
were
going
to
be
spotlighting
it
anyway
for
your
discussion.
Thus
we
didn't
put
on
put
it
on
the
list
of
23.,
but
it's
a
it's
a
similar
type
of
request
that
we've
been
engaging
with
over
Lake
farms
even
prior
to
the
launch
of
the
the
comp
plan
process,
and
they
did
submit
comments
during
the
the
Eis
comment
period.
And
there
are,
they
are
asking
for
something
that
is
above
what
was
studied
in
the
draft
Eis.
W
Z
W
I'll,
just
let
me
walk
it
through
so
on
the
the
graphic
on
the
left
is
the
preferred
alternative
that
went
through
the
Planning
Commission.
All
the
yellow,
the
light
yellow
is
our
large
lot,
and
that
is
essentially
one
to
one
point:
eight
1.8
du's
per
acre
only
units
per
acre,
so
it's
the
existing.
Essentially
the
existing
zoning
up
there
and
the
darker
yellow
was
the
staff
and
planning
commission's
recommendation
for
our
low,
which
council
member
Robertson
correctly
pointed
out,
is
seven
and
a
half
units
to
15
units
per
acre.
Z
W
Z
Okay
and
then
to
my
original
question,
which
is
we
have
the
23
Parcels
that
we
said
we
are
not
going
to
consider
so
these
23
are
different
than
this
one,
because
the
process
had
already
begun
in
terms
of
discussion.
That's
what
I
thought
I
just
heard.
You
say
and
that's
why
they're
being
their
request
is
being
considered,
and
these
ones
are
not.
We.
W
W
Z
Okay,
I
I
will
just
say
that
I
don't
know
about
my
other
colleagues
I.
We
hadn't
seen
that
there
were
23
other
ones
and
so
I'm
just
trying
to
reflect
on
how
this
one
is
different
than
the
other
23
in
terms
of
how
we
are
considering
that
that's
information
I
didn't
have
a
week
ago
and
so
I
look
forward
to
hearing
from
my
colleagues.
It's
just
something
I'm
thinking
about
here.
D
Councilman,
what
is
the
overall
plan
Vision?
Do
we
have
for
this
whole
area?
I
see
this
is
just
part
of
you
know
a
bunch
of
other
land
use
you
know.
So
what
is?
Is
this
isolated?
What's
going
on
in
the
future?
What
do
we
envisioned
to
see
whether
the
request
is
the
reasonable
as
a
transition
into
something
that
may
be
compatible
with
our
overall
land
use
or
or
what
yeah?
So,
how
did
you
decide
and
the
commission
that
this
is
the
preferred
alternative
versus
what
they
request.
Y
Sure
so,
in
the
preferred
in
the
draft
Eis,
as
Emil
mentioned,
Overlake
Farms
has
been
very
engaged.
In
fact,
they
submitted
a
comprehensive
plan.
Amendments
are
a
few
years
ago
and
then
did
not
chose
not
to
move
forward,
and
so,
as
I
said,
we
they
were
very
engaged.
They
provided
comments
during
the
scoping
comment
period,
which
was
really
early
on
in
the
process
and
So
based
on
their
feedback.
We
did
analyze
under
the
three
Alternatives
different
different
densities
for
that
site.
Y
With
the
understanding
you
know,
part
of
affordable
housing
is
an
issue
engaging
or
trying
to
achieve
additional
housing
within
the
cities,
also
something
that
is
a
goal,
something
we
have
to
do
under
our
vision,
2050
and
Regional
mandates,
and
then,
of
course,
we
have
11
10
requirements
to
achieve
missing
middles.
So
that
was
the
intent
with
us
really
looking
at
the
Arlo
and
our
lot
kind
of
looking
at
the
surrounding
zoning
and
land
use
designations
and
also
aligning
it
with
some
of
the
regional
requirements.
V
D
Okay,
did
you
have
any
Community
feedback
in
terms
of
y'all?
You
know
consideration
of
one
or
the
other.
V
I
believe
we
did
receive
some
comments
today,
yeah
that
were
in
opposition
to
an
increase.
Okay.
Thank
you.
W
Where
it
goes
from
the
comp
plan
overlay
colors
to
the
the
non-colors,
so
you
can
see
part
of
a
lake
that
is
in
there's
portions
of
Kirkland
and
Redmond
just
right
there
on
the
top
of
the
map.
Yes,
where
it
switches
over.
A
Okay,
just
checking
that
so
do
you
know
where
you
land
on
this
councilmemberly.
D
C
D
And
I,
you
know
we
heard
what
the
problem
has
presented
and
So
based
on
that
I
would
say
that
I
don't
have
any
strong
data
to
unfortunately
support
the
requests
from
the
Overlake
farm
at
this
time.
So.
A
Okay,
so
I
am
with
the
requested
one,
because
we're
just
studying
it
I
think
this
could
be
a
real
opportunity.
I
know
just
north
of
this
property
is
multi-use,
multi-family,
sorry,
and
so
it's
it's
consistent
with
the
what's
there
in
the
in
the
area
on
the
North
End
of
the
property,
so
I'd
be
curious
to
see
what
the
impact
would
be.
So
I'd
like
to
study
that
council
members
on
let's
say
you.
Z
Well,
I
would
say
that
I
I
am
struggling
right
now
with
the
fact
that
if
we
said
yes
to
this
request,
but
we
say
no
to
the
other
23,
then
I'm,
just
struggling
with
how
we
say
to
the
other
23
parcel
property
owners
that
we're
going
to
stick
with
the
preferred
alternative
there
and
that
we're
going
to
consider
the
request
here,
especially
in
light
of
our
conversation
related
to
the
neighborhood
centers,
where
we
said
there
are
other
ways
through
comp
plan
amendments
to
consider
a
different
up
zone,
so
I
I
am
unless
there
is
a
way
for
us
to
really
look
at
it
from
an
equitable
review
standpoint.
Z
I
I'm
going
to
find
myself
in
that
preferred
alternative
just
from
a
consistency
standpoint.
Otherwise,
I
am
I
I,
wonder
how
we
tell
the
other
property
owners
that
we
are
treating
them
differently
than
this
one.
A
Can
I
just
weigh
in
for
a
second
sure,
I
will
just
say
that
I
have
spoken
with
the
family.
Who's
made
this
request
for
over
a
year,
and
there
were
many
ways
that
they
could
have
applied
for
this
increased
density
and
we
recommended
that
they
do
it
through
the
comp
plan
process.
I'm,
not
sure
why
the
Planning
Commission
didn't
choose
this
as
something
to
consider
I
had
not
seen
the
applications
of
the
other
ones.
I've
not
discussed
these
other
properties
with
other
people.
A
It
was
not
on
my
radar
and
I,
don't
know
if
they
had
been
working
with
you
behind
the
scenes
and
I
never
knew
it.
But
this
property
in
particular,
has
been
very
thoughtful.
They've
met
with
me.
They
met
with
you,
they've
met
with
other
council
members,
and
this
was
the
path
that
we
told
them
to
go
so.
Z
Okay
well
mayor
that
that's
new
information
that
I
I
hadn't
heard
that's
I
mean
so
maybe
I'm,
just
not
speaking
very
clearly.
That's
what
I'm
trying
to
understand.
So
you
know
if
the
staff
have
been
communicating
with
the
owners
that
this
is
the
the
pathway
to
the
changing
the
Zoning
for
their
parcel
and
that's
a
different
interaction
than
the
other
23.
That's
on
here,
then
that
changes,
how
I
see
things,
but
until
the
the
mayor
brought
this
up,
I
just
hadn't
I
didn't
have
that
context,
and
so
this
is
what
I
needed
to
understand.
V
Maybe
if
I
could
speak
to
that
briefly
sorry
Emil.
Yes,
we
did
meet
with
the
property
owners.
We've
also
met
with
some
of
the
other
property
owners
that
have
submitted
requests
through
this
process.
So
this
is
part
of
the
process
and
it's
not
necessarily
I
understand
the
the
question
about
Equity.
The
equity
is
in
the
process
itself,
not
necessarily
in
the
decision
that's
made
by
the
Planning
Commission
or
the
city
council.
The
process
the
equity
is
about
a
consideration.
V
So
this
is
given
the
same
consideration
as
other
requests
that
we've
received
staff
evaluated
those
and,
in
the
case
of
the
other
23
that
are
on
the
list
staff
recommended
in
a
couple
of
cases,
staff
recommended
something
different
than
what
the
Planning
Commission
ultimately
prefer.
Ultimately
selected
I
should
say,
and
in
other
cases
they
agreed
with
the
staff
recommendation,
so
I
I,
guess,
customers
on
from
an
equity
standpoint,
I
think
that
they've
been
treated
the
same
as
others
that
have
gone
through
this
same
process
as
have
all
the
other
23
on
the
on
the
list.
Z
V
I'll
I'll
start
with
that
and
I'll
ask
staff
to
elaborate
on
it,
just
like
all
of
the
other
ones
that
we
looked
at
the
in
some
cases,
the
staff
didn't
feel
the
request
was
consistent
with
the
direction
that
that
the
plan
was
intended
to
go
in
a
certain
area
in
this
particular
area.
I.
Think,
as
Tara
mentioned,
we
looked
at
the
context
of
what's
the
zoning
around
that
property.
What
are
we
looking
at
in
terms
of
future
development
and
how
comparable
is
that?
Is
it
going
to
be
compatible
with
that
over
time?
V
Is
this
an
area
that
we
see
in
transitioning
into
higher
densities
over
time?
In
this
particular
area,
we
don't
see
a
lot
of
transition
to
a
higher
density
in
the
future,
some,
which
is
why
we
went
with
the
recommendation,
that's
more
than
what's
currently
allowed,
but
not
as
much
as
what
what
the
applicants
had
requested
and
an
emulator.
If
you
want
to
add
anything
to
that.
W
Yeah
I
think
it
was
about
proximity
to
other
uses
we,
but
we
have
other
cities
on
the
north,
but
we
also
have
other
uses
to
the
South,
especially
south,
of
that
South
parcel
and
just
I
mean
order
of
magnitude.
20
acres
at
that
are
low,
depending
if
it's
seven
and
a
half
up
to
15
is
150
to
300
units,
so
it
is,
there
still
is
a
quite
amount
of
development
that
could
happen
even
under
the
the
r
low.
So
we
were
looking
at
that
as
well.
W
A
Z
That
I'm
I'm
at
the
preferred
alternative,
because
otherwise
I
think
that
we
are
sending
a
message
that
that
that
council
members
that
didn't
understand
there
were
23
others
we
said.
Oh,
this
seems
like
a
good
opportunity
to
look
at
something,
but
it
sounds
like
what
you're
saying
is.
You
guys
have
already
thoughtfully
looked
at
it
and
that
if
we
were
to
say
yes
to
this
request,
then
potentially
we
have
other
requests
that
we
didn't
actually
give
the
same
due
consideration
to,
and
that
just
doesn't
seem
like
to
me
thanks.
A
Okay,
so
that
kind
of
answers,
the
question
of
preferred
versus
the
request,
so
there's
a
majority,
that's
going
with
the
preferred
alternative,
just
one
second,
okay,
there's
another
question
here
that
councilmember
Robertson
asked,
which
should
rll
be
replaced
by
our
Suburban
city-wide
I.
Think
that
that
is
a
big
question
that
needs
a
lot
of
study.
Did
you
expect
us
to
that's.
C
D
We
haven't
answered
the
question
where
I'm
on
yet
I
didn't
think
it
earlier
and
I
went
go
for
the
prefer
because,
like
information
on
the
request,
but
after
listening
to
you,
that's
the
frustrating
part
is
there's
a
lot
of
different
situations.
Circumstances
I
have
no
clue.
It's
not
privy
to
you
know
for
me
anyway,
I
don't
know.
Who
else
do
so?
D
You
know,
as
you
can
tell,
this,
is
a
very
related
complex
decision
that
affect
your
other
properties,
other
situations
and
the
onus
itself
they
are
expect
they
are
them
they're
different
than
any
other
22
or
three
properties
or
whoever
else
we're
talking
about
so
I.
Think
in
order
to
make
the
real
good
decision
have
transparency
consistency.
We
got
to
know
all
that
information
from
the
questions
we
raised.
D
It's
just
because
somebody
else
doesn't
know.
The
answer
doesn't
mean
that
we
all
have
the
same
information,
so
I
I
find
it
very
challenging.
So
that's
why
we
are
having
discussions
and
that's
how
it
comes
out.
You
know
whatever
situation
is
yeah,
so
based
on
what
I
see
you
know,
I'm
still
at
the
country
where
the
prefer,
as
you
mentioned,
is
what
you
know
preferred,
or
should
we
be
considering
whatever
special
circumstance
that
the
property
owner
or
me
said
so
that's
right.
D
A
A
So
this
is
what
we
had
kind
of
agreed
on
last
meeting
and
the
only
clarification
I
will
say
that
the
mfte
program,
as
Tara
said
in
the
presentation,
is
for
high-rise,
because
we
already
have
a
good
mft
for
low
rise.
So
it
was
just
to
look
at
how
we
might
incentivize
affordable
housing
in
high-rise,
okay,
so
Council.
We
are
on
page
32
in
the
packet
of
that
those
things
and
they're
double-sided
council
member
Stokes,
which
makes
this
hard
so
go
ahead.
Council
member
Robertson,
I.
E
Just
have
a
question
so
the
three
things
on
this
slide:
we
have
this
Planning
Commission
preferred
alternative
and
then
the
three
other
bullets
under
feis
that
we're
going
to
study
both
mandatory
and
incentive
systems,
we're
going
to
study
the
impacts
of
other
affordable
housing
programs,
including
mfte
rental
and
ownership,
and
we're
going
to
study
the
impact
of
mandatory
inclusionary
on
the
price
of
market
rate
units.
If
I
agree
that
this
is
the
direction
we're
going
to
do
all
that
right,
that's.
E
J
V
The
short
answer
to
that
is,
we
want
to
see
if
it
makes
a
difference
in
terms
of
the
number
of
units
that
we
could
generate
and
and
how
that
might
work
in
conjunction
with
some
of
the
increases
that
we're
looking
at
as
we've
talked
about
before,
the
only
opportunity
we
have
to
apply
any
type
of
a
mandatory
inclusionary
system
is
when
we
do
an
increase
in
the
capacity
and
since
we're
looking
at
significant
increases
in
capacity
in
several
areas,
particularly
in
Wilburton.
This
would
be
the
opportunity
to
look
at
that.
Okay,.
A
Else
has
a
comment
council,
member,
well
I'm,
going
to
say
I'm
comfortable
with
what
you're
putting
forth
here
go
ahead.
Councilman
resign.
Z
Both
okay,
so
this
we
would
be
looking
at
all
of
those
potential
pieces
and
then
just
to
be
really
clear
when
we
say
affordable
housing.
What
is
the
maximum
percentage?
Is
that
the
80
percent
Ami?
So
this
wouldn't
be
about
the
the
missing
middle
per
se,
which
is
more
like
the
80
to
120
this.
It
would
be
the
80
Ami
just
for
clarity.
That's.
Z
Yeah
yeah.
That
would
be
great,
because
I
think
it
would
be
helpful
to
really
understand
when
we're
doing
all
these
analysis.
These
different
levels
of
affordability,
because
we
know
that
it
isn't
just
in
the
lowest
bracket
of
income,
and
it
would
be
helpful
to
understand
whether
some
of
these
different
Alternatives
actually
help
with
that
middle
housing
as
well
and
I.
Don't
know
if
that's
something
we
have
to
specifically
ask
for,
because
it
would
be
above
what
we
would
consider
affordable.
A
Z
Y
Z
U
Z
U
X
V
C
D
I
agree
we
need
to
and
we
need
to
have
the
information,
the
facts,
so
people
out
there,
the
rest
of
the
community
understand
what
we
talk
about.
I
seem
to
be,
we
we
don't
really
know
for
sure
until
we
look
at
it
and
talk
about
it.
So
thanks
I
do
have
some
problem
with
the
incent,
with
the
with
this
mandatory
and
incentive
systems,
City
UI
my
problem
with
mandatory
system.
D
A
Okay,
so
can
I
ask:
is
there
any
cons
to
increasing
the
scope
of
this,
because
I
mean
what
we,
what
I
really
want
to
focus
on
is
what's
the
hardest
to
get
which
is
80
below
or
below
80
actually,
but
is
there?
Are
there
cons
to
broadening
the
scope
to
also
include
80
to
120.
W
It's
going
to
be
a
slight
increase
in
just
the
body
of
work,
so
it
might
take
a
little
bit
longer
more
staff
and
consultant
hours,
but
the
the
overall
methodology
is
is
generally
in
that
umbrella.
So
it's
not
like
a
whole
new
effort.
It's
just
expanding
it
a
bit
to
look
at
that
80
to
120,
and
it
would.
It
would
show
some
of
the
trade-offs
with
you
know,
amount
of
units
in
that
80
to
120
versus
some
of
the
ones
that
might
be
in
the
lower
Ami
levels
as
well.
For.
J
Yeah
I'm
comfortable
moving
forward
with
this
I'd
like
councilman
Lee
I,
prefer
more
the
incentive
bass
system
than
than
mandatory.
But
you
know
given
this
is
just
a
study.
We
we
take
a
look
at
it,
I'm,
also,
okay,
with
if
it's
not
going
to
cause
any
timeline
issues.
J
If
we
move
and
expand
the
study
to
the
120
I'm.
Okay
with
that
as
well
I
think
the
mayor
is
correct
that
we
really
need
to
hone
in
on
the
ADM
below.
But
if
it's
not
a
it's,
not
a
huge
lift
I
think
it'd
be
great
to
have
that
data.
Thank
you.
AA
I'm
comfortable
proceeding
with,
of
course,
including
mandatory
and
fine,
including
up
to
120
percent
I,
guess
I,
would
just
say
I'll
leave
it
there
never
mind.
Thank
you.
A
I,
just
honestly
I
just
don't
want
to
muddy
the
Waters
of
that's
not
to
me,
affordable
housing,
it's
just
it's
more
affordable
than
expensive
housing,
but
it's
not
what
I
consider
affordable
so
I
kind
of
I'm
concerned
that
that's
like
taking
us
off
our
mission
a
little
bit.
Oh.
V
This
is
one
we
we
felt
we
had
some
consensus
from
the
council
last
time.
You
definitely
want
to
study
the
tree
canopy
for
the
recommended
alternative
from
the
Planning
Commission,
and
that
could
also
be
expanded
to
increase
the
amount
of
analysis
that
was
done
on
those
others
to
make
sure
it's
comparable
on
the
other
Alternatives.
So.
A
V
And
this
will
give
us
that
the
ability
to
look
at
that,
as
you
saw
on
the
map
this
evening
on
the
canopy
areas-
it
wouldn't
be
site
specific,
but
it
would
be
on
those
sub
areas
of
the
city.
We
could
look
at
a
little
bit
more
specifically
and
where
we
might
want
to
beef
up
some
of
the
policies
and
and
maybe
regulations
in
those
areas.
Yeah.
U
Yeah,
on
the
fbis
analysis,
says,
study
impact
on
tree
canopy,
and
what
exactly
are
you
going
to
find
it
we're
just
you're
just
going
to
study
and
see
what
the
tree
canopy
is,
or
are
you
going
to
get
more
into
what
affects
the
tree
canopy
and
you
know
more
because
we
really
don't
have
a
good
sense
of
what
we're
what
the
tree
canopy
really
is
and
what's
going
on
and
and
where
we
need
to
to
look
and
and
take
some
action.
So
what
is
what's
the
oh?
V
V
Does
it
decrease
the
tree
canopy
overall?
If
we
do
this
particular
land
use
approach
and
how
would
that
compare
to
the
other
Alternatives
in
terms
of
how
that
might
affect
the
overall
percentage
of
the
tree
canopy
it
it
could
get
into
a
little
bit
more
detailed
level.
We
haven't
exactly
scoped
that
yet,
but
it
could
also
look
at
maybe
the
different
types
of
trees
that
would
be
necessary
and
that's
kind
of
getting
into
I.
V
Think
more
of
what
the
mayor
was
talking
about,
as
we
start
to
look
at
the
land
use
aspect
of
that
and
how
it
informs
the
land
use
decision,
so
that
may
be
going
beyond
what
we
can
do
in
this
particular
analysis
we
haven't.
We
haven't
really
figured
all
of
that
out
yet,
but
at
the
very
basic
level,
it's
certainly
going
to
look
at.
You
know
how
it
affects
the
overall
canopy
for
the
city
and
certainly
what
that
means
in
terms
of
our
our
greenhouse
gas
reduction
goals.
D
Happy
to
see
here
may
have
said
that
you
know
she
thought
that
she
cannot
be
foundational
to
affordable
housing
for
the
city,
which
I
agree.
So
are
we
going
to
change
the
word
foundational
to
the
identity
of
Bellevue.
A
You
thank
you
any
other
comments
or
questions
if
you're,
okay,
with
it
councilman.
Z
Just
had
a
quick
one,
so
when
we
say
impact
were
the
impacts
are
going
to
be
different
in
different
areas.
Right
because
when
we
look
at
our
our
map
here,
the
areas
that
have
more
tree
canopy
is
in
certain
areas
and
not
so
much
in
others.
So
when
we
get
done
with
the
study
impact,
it
will
help
us
differentiate
between
these
different
areas
and
how
the
tree
canopy
is
impacted
by
the
the
the
different
Alternatives
that
we
have
is
that
right
so
we'll
be
able
to
really
hone
in.
Y
A
E
I
I
support
this
I
think
that
true
canopy
advantational
to
livability
in
Bellevue,
so
I
don't
have
quibble
with
identity.
But
that
isn't
why
I
raise
my
hand,
so
I
I
think
that
I
support
this
I
would
perhaps
like
to
see
come
out
of
this,
because
this
is
supposed
to
inform
compound
comp.
God
I
can't
even
talk.
E
Comp
plan
policies
it'd
be
great
to
see
compound
policies
where
we
have
a
goal
of
a
certain
minimum
canopy
in
every
sub
area.
Right.
C
E
Of
30
we
want
40
plus
Citywide,
but
I
would
like
to
see
some
of
these
areas
have
a
lot
more
tree,
canopy
and
so
I'm,
hoping
that
the
study
will
support
the
development
of
appropriate
comp
plan
policies
on
how
to
support
more
trees,
consistent
trees,
because
with
Bell
Road
at
14
and
Bridal
Trails
at
51.
That's
a
stark
difference.
I
mean
I
think
that
we
should
have
a
minimum
of
30
everywhere,
but
which
would
get
us
to
The
Higher
Goals
everywhere,
because
some
of
the
places
are
much
higher.
W
In
your
desk
packet
and
in
the
normal
packet,
we
have
the
map
same
one
shown
on
the
screen.
You
can
see
a
little
bit
better
in
your
handout
and
we
have
the
the
23
requests.
So
again,
these
came
in
during
the
45-day
comment
period
after
the
dis
had
come
out
and
they
were
asking
for
something
beyond
what
was
in
the
the
dis.
So
that's
why
these
23
are
highlighted
for
some
of
them.
W
They
were
analyzed
at
something
different
than
it
is
today
already
and
they
were
asking
for
more
and
what
we
have
in
this
handout
is
the
rationale
for
the
preferred
alternative,
ultimately
not
moving
forward
with
what
they
were
requesting.
So
it's
kind
of
the
the
staff
take
on
each
and
every
request,
and
what
we
would
like
to
to
hear
from
Council
is,
if
you
have
any
questions
about
any
of
these,
and
if
there
are
any
changes
you
want
to
make
to
the
preferred
alternative.
W
A
So
I'll
start
us
off,
I
was
and
then
we'll
go
with
councilmember
Rock
still,
okay,
I
was
curious.
Why
number
three
didn't
make
the
cut,
because
that
being
the
Spring
District,
that's
in
just
in
the
middle
of
development,
I
can't
imagine
why
we
wouldn't
consider
them
in
this
process.
We
have
a
commitment
to
the
Spring
District.
We've
invested
a
hundred
million
dollars
into
infrastructure,
their
It's
Curious.
To
me,
yeah.
W
W
The
preferred
alternative
does
have
250
feet
analyzed
in
it,
so
it
is
an
increase
of
what
it
is
today,
the
specific
request
to
go
all
up
to
350
feet.
Staff
felt
was
a
bit
out
of
proportion
when
you
look
at
that
Bel
Red
area
as
a
compliment
to
Wolverton
in
the
downtown
area.
So
that
was
the
the
main
rationale.
W
C
A
W
K
E
The
preferred
alternative:
is
there
any
area
of
the
city
other
than
maybe
rll
that
isn't
getting
added
density,
whether
it
be
under
the
potential
studied?
Is
it
not
getting
isn't
being
studied
for
additional
density,
whether
it
be
under
increased
zoning
capacity
or
the
two
bills
that
the
legislature
passed.
W
I'll
give
one
example,
and
then
Tara
can
kind
of
fill
in
some
others.
There
are
some
office
zoned
properties
throughout
the
city
that
are
largely
remaining
the
same
and
the
rationale
for
those
was
not
to
just
give
more
density
and
then
face
displacement
of
a
lot
of
small
cases
in
those
areas.
So
that's
one
one
example
of
a
a
zoning
category:
that's
not
not
changing
too
much
for
most
by
the
by
and
large,
but
are
there
other
examples?
Tara.
Y
I
believe
we
didn't
look
at
all,
because
East
Main
was
so
recent.
E
E
We
are
going
to
have
a
signif
if
any
of
the
Alternatives,
including
alternative
one,
becomes
law
in
the
city
of
Bellevue
in
terms
of
the
comp
plan
and
the
land
use
code
to
follow
we're
going
to
have
significant
increased
density,
I'd
like
to
kind
of
live
with
that
for
a
while,
because
we
don't
need
to
get
whatever
the
whatever.
That
is.
E
E
I
think
that,
if
down
the
road,
if
it
becomes
clear
after
we,
the
council
has
adopted
a
preferred
alternative
adopted,
whatever
the
new
comp
plan
is
going
to
be
adopted,
the
land
use
code
done
the
rezoning.
If
it
turns
out
that
some
of
these
aren't
feasible
to
redevelop
in
the
way
that
we
want
or
we're
not
seeing
the
development
that
meets
our
growth
targets
and
meets
the
needs
of
our
people,
there
is
always
comp
plan
amendments
that
can
be
done
either
by
the
property
owner
or
initiative
of
the
council.
E
So
I
just
would
kind
of
like
to
keep
moving
forward
with
this,
and
if
the
council
wants
to
look
at
this
in
five
or
ten
years,
well,
we'll
look
at
it
again
in
10
years
for
the
new
comp
plan.
They
can
certainly
make
changes
to
that
time
and
or
the
applicants
the
property
owners
can
make
applications
so
I'm
I'm
good
with
staff
and
planning
commission's
recommendation
to
not
forward
any
of
these
at
this
time.
Thank
you.
U
V
D
K
D
A
W
And
this
we,
we
went
over
this
earlier
in
our
presentation
tonight,
so
this
was
just
the
the
follow-up
items
that
we
reported
back
to
you
in
the
memo
as
attachments
or
as
as
paragraphs
describing,
what
we're
doing
I.
A
D
I'm
glad
you
included
travel
analysis
and
other
impact
and
mitigations
one
thing
that
I
we
we
haven't
looked
at
is
other
infrastructures,
I,
don't
know
about
other
services
necessary.
You
know,
like
water,
sewer
utilities.
J
J
A
Right
good
job:
okay,
okay,
on
to
study
session
I
mean
the
study
session
item
number
two.
T
So
Marin
and
council
members.
This
next
item
is
discussion
of
updates
to
the
city
council
rules
and
amendments
to
the
Bellevue
city
code
for
advisory
boards
and
commissions,
and
just
white
Bay
background
staff
is
proposing
recommended
changes
to
the
council's
rules
procedure
for
conduct
of
this
meeting
as
well.
Similar
changes
to
the
code
Provisions
governing
boards
and
commission
meetings
and
tonight's
staff
is
seeking
the
direction
of
the
council
in
terms
of
amendments
to
the
code.
So
I
will
mention
by
way
background
that
this
was
a
topic
of
conversation
at
the
council.
AB
For
yourselves
and
a
little
over
a
year
ago,
you
made
some
changes
to
the
code
for
remote
participation
for
board
and
commission
members
and
at
that
time
asked
to
revisit
those
rules
in
a
year
to
see
if
there
were
opportunities
for
any
changes,
and
so
it's
both
of
those
efforts
that
are
the
outgrowth
of
those
that
are
what
we're
bringing
to
you
tonight
for
remote
participation
on
public
participation.
Those
rules
have
not
been
reconsidered
or
reviewed
for
quite
some
time.
It
was
over
eight
years
ago,
the
last
time
those
rules
were
reviewed.
AB
B
Perfect,
thank
you
Miss
Carla
good
evening,
mayor
Deputy,
Mayor
and
council
members
different
perspective
from
this
table
tonight.
As
Ms
Garla
mentioned,
we
are
seeking
direction
to
bring
back
amendments
to
the
city
council
rules
and
also
the
code
Provisions
for
the
boards
and
commissions.
So,
given
the
hour,
we'll
go
through
this
as
quickly
as
possible,
again
talking
about
remote
participation,
public
participation
and
then
a
minor
change
to
the
order
of
your
meeting
on
your
regular
agendas.
B
So
kicking
it
off
with
sorry
remote
participation
So.
Currently,
the
council
has
a
rule
in
place
that
requires
council
members
to
be
approved
for
remote
participation,
and
this
happens
either
at
a
prior
meeting
or
happens
before
joining
the
meeting
you're
wishing
to
join
remotely.
Typically,
if
it's
the
prior
meeting,
we
handle
it
under
Council
business,
it's
a
motion
and
a
vote
by
a
majority
of
the
council,
so
the
current
process
or
the
process
that
we
are
proposing,
is
just
a
notification.
So
we're
moving
from
an
approval
process
to
a
notification
process.
B
In
addition,
there
was
some
interest
in
the
council
to
not
include
approved
city
of
Bellevue
business
travel
as
a
part
of
the
remote
participation
count
annually
So.
Currently,
the
council
has
a
rule
of
four
meetings
per
year
that
are
allowed
to
be
remote
participation
if
you're
away
on
city
of
Bellevue
business.
That
would
not
count
towards
your
four
annual
limit,
and
then
we
did
include
a
provision
about
camera
expectations
simply
that
the
council,
while
participating
remotely,
is
encouraged
to
leave
your
camera
on
as
much
as
possible.
B
There's
also
a
little
piece
in
there
about
notifying
the
clerk.
If
you
do
turn
your
camera
off
and
leave
the
room
that
you're
in
just
letting
me
know
so
that
we
can
maintain
Quorum
for
Quorum
purposes,
moving
to
the
boards
and
commissions
for
remote
participation,
similar
change,
although
the
notice,
since
it
is
a
notification
process
also,
the
notice
is
to
the
chair
and
the
staff
liaison
for
the
boarding
commission
and
the
notice
is
the
day
prior
to
the
meeting
and
mostly
the
difference
there
or
the
reason
for
the
difference
is
it's
a
little
bit.
B
They
have
a
little
bit
more
of
a
challenging
role
in
setting
up
their
meetings
and
making
sure
that
they
have
no
more
than
three
border
commission
members
participating
remotely.
B
Their
the
proposed
changes
to
oral
Communications
specifically
are
that
individuals
must
sign
up
for
themselves.
We've
had
instances
in
the
past
where
individuals
come
and
they
sign
up,
or
they
sign
up
electronically
for
multiple
people,
maybe
friends
or
neighbors
or
other
businesses,
and
this
just
makes
it
clear
that
individuals
must
sign
up
for
themselves.
B
B
We
are
proposing
putting
in
a
provision
that
automatically
prioritizes
those
speaking
to
items
on
that
evening's
agenda
and
then
the
presiding
officer
can
also
give
preference
to
those
who
have
not
spoken
to
council
within
the
last
30
days
or
are
speaking
on
items
anticipated
to
come
to
council
within
the
next
30
days.
B
If
we
get
to
that
similar
to
tonight
last
week,
if
we
get
to
that
point
where
there
are
more
than
30
minutes
of
oral
Communications,
the
council
has
some
options
that
we've
written
into
the
roles.
So
the
council
can
either
extend
oral
Communications.
You
can
add
a
second
oral
Communications
comment
period
at
the
end
of
the
meeting,
or
you
can
reduce
the
amount
of
individual
time
given
to
commenters
from
three
minutes
to
two
minutes.
AB
So
now
we're
turning
to
the
rules
of
decorum
for
the
council
and
those
are
essentially,
as
you
know,
the
rules
that
lay
out
your
expectations
for
how
the
public
will
participate
appropriately
in
your
meetings.
They
are
intended
to
allow
the
public
to
give
input
to
you,
but
allow
you
to
still
efficiently
and
effectively
run
your
meetings
and
do
the
business
of
the
city.
AB
So
we
are
proposing
to
add
a
general
prohibition
that
for
conduct
that
disrupts
or
the
orderly
conduct
of
council
meeting
right
now
in
the
rules,
there's
an
expectation
and
a
strong
encouragement,
I
should
say
in
the
rules
but
we're
suggesting
we
turn
that
into
an
enforceable
prohibition
on
any
conduct.
That
disrupts
the
council
meetings,
which
is
similar
to
what
other
jurisdictions
have
included,
we're
also
proposing
in
the
rules
some
specific
examples
of
the
types
of
activities
and
conduct
that
would
could
constitute
A
disruption
sufficient
to
be
enforceable.
AB
This
isn't
intended
to
be
an
exhaust
list,
but
it
does
include
some
of
the
more
commonly
identified
or
commonly
encountered.
I
guess
is
the
better
word
types
of
behavior,
a
particular
note.
I'll
I'll
note
that
we've
added
a
limitation
on
approaching
council
members
or
city
staff
or
we're
recommending
that
during
Council
meetings,
because
both
council
members
and
staff
need
to
pay
attention
during
the
meeting,
and
it
can
be
very
disruptive
to
have
members
of
the
public
approaching
them
without
the
presiding
officer's
permission.
AB
While
the
meetings
in
in
process
and
we've
also
added
something
with
respect
to
the
use
of
signs
that
isn't
there
now,
so,
science
could
not
be
fixed
to
the
walls
or
any
sort
of
structures,
and
they
could
not
be
signs
that
would
obstruct
other
people's
view
or
use
in
a
way
that
might
harm
people.
So
if
you
bring
a
sign
in
and
it
has
a
long
stick
on
it,
you
can't
put
the
stick
out
in
the
aisle
such
that
people
can
trip
over
it.
Those
kind
of
things.
AB
There's
a
separate
category
of
conduct
that
we
also
are
recommending
to
be
added
to
the
rules,
and
this
is
conduct-
that's
not
protected
by
the
First
Amendment,
but
activities
that
could
occur
and
the
U.S
Supreme
Court
defines
the
exceptions
from
the
First
Amendment.
So
it's
the
U.S
Supreme
Court
that
defines
the
nuances
of
these,
and
they
there
are
some
nuances.
AB
The
Supreme
Court
just
issued
a
decision
in
the
end
of
last
month,
for
example,
about
true
threats
and
what
what
needs
to
be
proved
in
terms
of
recklessness
so
I
am
not
intending
tonight
or
in
the
rules
to
go
into
all
those
nuances
of
each
of
these
I
have
attempted
to
draft
the
language
in
the
rules
so
that
it
is
consistent
with
the
U.S
Supreme
Court
jurisprudence
and
in
general.
These
are
prohibit
people
from
threatening,
essentially
threatening
people
with
violence,
use
of
obscene
language
or
gestures,
which
is
not
what
what
sometimes
people
may
think.
AB
It's
not
gestures
or
language.
That
is
offensive
in
general.
It
is
very
specific.
It's
sexually
explicit
language
or
gestures
and
assault
or
attempted
assault,
so
these
may
also
be
crimes,
and
but
regardless
of
whether
the
police
department
chooses
to
proceed
forward
with
somebody
if
these
are
crimes,
we
believe
that
it
it
we're
recommending
that
you
should
also
put
these
in
your
rules
so
that
you
have
a
tool
to
remove
somebody
from
a
meeting
if
necessary,
regardless
of
whether
the
police
pursues
these
as
a
crime.
AB
So
those
are
the
types
of
conduct
that
are
we're
recommending
being
added
to
be
prohibited
and
then
that
conduct
can,
when
it
true,
actually
interferes
with
your
ability
to
carry
out
your
meeting
result
in
enforcement,
and
so
with
respect
to
enforcement,
we
are
recommending.
Now
there
is
language,
there's
some
language
in
the
current
rules
on
enforcement,
we're
recommending
to
make
those
options
a
bit
more
explicit,
so
we
would
have
specific
language
in
the
rules
that
talks
about
the
ability
of
the
presiding
officer
to
terminate
a
comment
period.
AB
So,
for
example,
if
someone
starts
talking
about
their
campaign
or
a
ballot
measure
in
the
middle
of
their
public
comment
period,
the
presiding
officer
can
shut
them
off
and
ask
the
clerk
to
mute
their
microphone.
Can
direct
security
Personnel
to
assist
them
to
their
seat
order
them
to
leave
the
room,
have
them
removed
if
they
refuse
and
then
the
the
last
one
is
a
prospective
exclusion.
If
you
will
from
future
meetings-
and
that
is
one
where
there's
already
that
tool
for
excluding
people
from
future
public
comment
periods,
we
are
have
proposed
language.
AB
That
would
also
allow
you
to
exclude
people
from
attendance
at
meetings
for
repeated
disruptions,
and
what
I
will
say
is
this
is
an
extraordinary
remedy
it.
It
should
be
used
very
rarely
and
sparingly,
but
it
is
there
and
we've
added
some
time
limits
to
it,
so
that
it
would
be
up
to
60
no
more
than
60
days.
It
doesn't
have
to
be
60,
but
no
more
than
60
at
any
one
time
for
repeated
disruptions
or
violations.
AB
AB
It
gets
filed
with
the
clerk
and
the
clerk
provides
the
person
who's
being
excluded
from
prospectively
from
future
comment
or
future
meetings
with
the
notice
of
it,
and
then
because
of
the
significance
of
this
of
enforcement
and
the
legal
issues
in
the
First
Amendment
other
legal
issues
surrounding
it
or
recommending
some
additional
internal
review
procedures
that
don't
currently
exist
in
your
rules
for
reviewing
decisions
of
the
presiding
officer
to
exclude
someone.
So
the
rules
have
language
in
it
that
allows
the
council
to
overrule
a
presiding
officer's
decision
to
exclude
someone.
AB
So
if
it's
for
from
a
particular
meeting,
they
they
can
a
majority
vote
of
the
council.
Members
at
that
meeting
can
vote
to
overrule.
If
it
is
a
prospective
exclusion,
then
the
council
members,
the
majority
of
council
members
at
the
next
meeting
went
after
that
exclusion
is,
is
filed
and
served
on.
The
party
can
vote
to
overturn
it
and
then
finally,
there's
also
a
provision
that
we're
proposing
to
add
that
allows
an
appeal
by
a
person
who
who
has
been
issued.
AB
Turning
to
the
boards
and
commissions
again,
these
will
be
code,
changes
that
we're
recommending
and
they're
they're
two
sets
of
changes.
The
first
is
changes
to
the
scope
of
public
comment,
so
what
we're
recommending
is
similar
to
what
Charmaine
mentioned
for
the
council.
If
someone
wants
to
come
and
speak
in
front
of
the
any
of
the
advisory
boards
or
commissions,
the
topics
have
to
relate
to
the
city
of
Bellevue
government,
but
in
addition,
we're
suggesting
that
the
topics
be
limited
to
subject
matters
that
are
within
the
powers
and
duties
of
the
board
or
commission.
AB
So
each
as
you
know,
each
of
these
boards
or
commissions
are
advisory
to
you.
They're
established
for
the
purpose
of
looking
at
very
specific
subjects,
and
so
the
the
intent
here
would
be
that
they're,
they're
volunteers
and
their
time
is
valuable.
So
if
it's
the
Transportation
Commission,
for
example,
this
would
limit
somebody
from
coming
and
talking
about
police
issues
or
art
issues
or
things
that
aren't
relevant
to
the
transportation
commission's
business
and
then,
lastly,
the
this
is
different
than
than
what
we're
proposing
for
the
council
rules.
AB
AB
As
to
the
rules
of
decorum,
the
boards
and
commissions
we're
proposing
would
have,
and
the
enforcement
mechanisms
would
have
the
same
rules
in
the
code
as
the
council
has
there's
given
again
the
significance
of
these
issues,
a
a
it
is
recommended
that
there
be
some
consistency
throughout
the
city
on
these,
so
that
the
boards
and
commissions
for
the
most
part
have
the
same
rules
and
the
same
enforcement
procedures
as
the
council
does
and
all
the
boards
have
the
same.
So
that's
why
we're
putting
recommending
that
we
put
it
into
the
code.
AB
There's
a
couple
of
exceptions
to
it
being
consistent
with
with
the
council
rules.
One
is
that
if
a
presiding
officer
of
a
board
or
commission
issues
a
prospective
exclusion
from
either
public
comment
or
attendance
at
Future
meetings
that
that
can
not
only
be
that
decision
can
not
only
be
overruled
by
the
boarding
commission
members
just
like
the
council
can
do
here,
but
it
could
also
be
over
ruled
by
the
city
council.
So
again,
if
you
there's
a
need
for
some
these
heightened
review
of
this,
given
the
significance
of
the
legal
issues.
AB
So
if
there's
a
presiding
officer
that
issues
a
problematic
or
unwise
decision,
this
at
least
affords
the
council
the
ability
to
step
in
and
decide
to
overturn
it
if
they
choose
to
do
so
and
then
finally,
the
appeal
process
for
an
exclusion
from
future
public
comment
or
future
attendance
at
meetings
would
be
heard
by
the
council
rather
than
the
boards
and
commissions
again.
Given
the
significance
of
these
issues,
the
need
for
some
consistency
and
also
the
need
for
timeliness.
AB
B
And
moving
to
should
be
the
easiest
part
of
this.
We
are
recommending
that,
on
all
of
your
standing
agendas
for
your
regular
meetings,
that
we
add
a
category
for
written
reports
so
you'll,
you
know
that
you're
seeing
a
lot
of
city
manager,
reports
that
are
written
only
just
information
provided
in
the
packet,
your
intergovernmental
Affairs
monthly
packet,
quarterly
updates
on
some
Council
adopted
plans.
The
information
that
comes
as
written
only
falls
under
different
categories.
B
This
written
reports
category
would
just
be
where
those
would
all
be
housed
and
it
would
be
as
item
13
on
your
on
your
regular
agenda,
but
the
order
of
business
is
written
into
your
role.
So
it
is
a
rule
change
and
with
that,
just
a
reminder
that
we
are
here
to
answer
any
questions
that
you
have
and
again
we're
seeking
direction
to
bring
back
the
council
rules,
change
via
resolution
and
then
the
code
permission
change
for
the
boards
and
commissions.
J
I
think
this
is
a
great
work.
I
think
you've
captured
some
of
our
work
at
the
at
the
retreat,
so
I'm
very
much
in
favor
moving
this
forward.
My
only
real
comment
well
on
slide.
10
I
would
remove
true
I
mean
true,
seems
somewhat
subjective,
but
what's
a
truth
threat,
or
else,
maybe
we
should
say
what
a
true
assault
or
true
obscene
gesture,
etc,
etc.
J
N
AB
A
J
A
I
would
prefer
not
to
limit
comments
to
agenda
items
of
our
boards
and
commissions,
because
it
just
concerns
me
that
somebody
may
have
gotten
a
babysitter.
They
have
found
find
a
way
to
get
here
to
talk
about
something
important
to
them.
They
get
turned
away
because
it's
not
on
the
agenda,
so
that
would
be
my
recommendation
and
then
on
Slide
Five
I
would
prefer
it
to
read
in
anticipation
of
the
absence
or
remote
attendance.
The
mayor
can
appoint
of
the
mayor
and
Deputy
Mayor.
The
mayor
can
appoint
a
presiding
officer
in
advance.
A
I
think
that
if
the
day
of
the
meeting
comes-
and
we
haven't
had
that
opportunity
in
advance
to
make
a
point-
the
presiding
officer,
then
we
should
do
as
it's
written
and
be
a
vote
of
the
council.
But
it's
we
have
warning
that
the
deputy
mayor
and
the
mayor
are
going
to
be
absent
in
the
following
meeting.
I
think
the
mayor
should
be
able
to
appoint
who
the
presiding
officer
will
be
in
advance.
So
those
are
my
two
recommendations.
I
need
to
take
any
comments.
Councilmember
Lee.
Thank.
D
One
of
the
members
of
the
council:
the
challenge
is
that
you
know
like
mayor
suggested.
Perhaps
mayor
could
appoint
somebody,
but
something
maybe
happened
last
minute
or
inadvertently.
The
mayor
cannot
appoint
someone.
We
still
need
to
figure
out.
You
know
who
is
going
to
be
acting,
it's
just
a
acting
person,
but
conducting
the
meeting
so
I
think
that
it
doesn't
require
the
action
of
a
council
to
meet
I.
Think.
Is
there
something
new?
Why
has
always
been
doing
that
before?
B
So
what
what
do?
What
do
we
do?
Yeah!
Thank
you
councilmemberly.
It
did
happen
one
time
recently
where
council
member
Stokes
actually
was
the
temporary
presiding
chair
for
a
meeting.
It's
because
mayor
Robinson
was
participating
remotely
and
Deputy
Mayor
new
in-house
was
absent.
That
meeting.
So
that's
in.
D
D
C
X
Z
Z
I
am
concerned
about
the
may
choose
to
include
a
requirement
to
speak
only
on
agenda
items,
because
I
could
see
where
the
public
might
come
and
they
don't
completely
understand
when
it
might
show
up
in
the
agenda,
and
so
the
idea
that
they
are
going
to
be
not
allowed
to
speak
I'm
just
concerned
about
it.
I
know
that
some
boards
and
commissions
do
have
a
look
ahead
calendar.
So
maybe
people
can
deduce
from
that
when
a
topic
is
going
to
come,
but
we
as
a
council
do
not
publish
I,
don't
believe
a
look
ahead.
Z
That's
not
okay,
it
says
whistling
hand,
clapping,
stomping,
feet
shouting
and
other
outbursts,
but
we
know
that
there
are
times
where
people
are
clapping
and
that's
okay,
so
I
I
would
like
to
get
some
ideas
of
how
we
actually
look
at
that
particular
item
on
here.
So
we
don't
end
up
with
a
rule
that
we
don't
anticip
we're
not
going
to
enforce.
AB
So
a
couple
of
thoughts
on
that
council
members
on
one
is
that,
with
with
all
of
these,
there
is
discretion.
The
presiding
officer
has
discretion
to
decide
whether
to
enforce
or
or
whether,
to
give
a
warning
or
not,
and
and
certainly
before,
excluding
someone
there.
It
has
to
be
an
actual
disruption
of
the
meeting.
So
that's
true
with
all
of
these,
so
there
is
some
discretion
there.
Z
So
I'm
fine
with
that
one
and
then
the
one
about
the
anticipating
being
on
the
agenda
in
the
next
30
days.
I
do
think
that
one
I
would
like
us
to
just
think
about
that,
because
unless
we're
gonna
publish
a
look
ahead
agenda,
I
don't
understand
how
the
public
would
actually
know
when
they
fit
into
that.
B
The
council
currently
has
a
rule
in
place
of
the
current
practice,
or
current
role
of
the
council
says.
Prioritization
can
be
given
to
those
who
have
not
spoken
to
the
council
in
the
last
quarter,
which
is
quarter
isn't
defined
or
who
are
speaking
on
items
anticipated
to
come
to
council
within
the
next
quarter.
So
we
mirrored
that
same
language,
just
reduced
it
to
a
time
frame
that
everyone
understands
with
30
days,
because
with
the
quarter
is
that
a
rolling
quarter
is
that
you
know
q1
versus
Q2.
B
Z
Okay,
well,
I
think
that
since
it's
written
in
here
like
that,
I
just
want
to
make
sure
we
don't
put
something
out
there
that
the
the
public
actually
wouldn't
have
enough
information
to
even
know
whether
they
fit
in
there
or
not.
So
either
we
have
a
way
to
have
that
Clarity
or
maybe
this
actually
shouldn't
be
written
in.
Quite
this
way,.
A
I've
appreciated
it
being
in
there
when
we've
had
overflowing
audience,
I
think
it's
I
think
it's
worked
so
and.
B
And
again,
that
prioritization
is
more
for
staff
internally
and-
and
we
know-
and
the
council
knows
generally
the
topics
that
will
come
within
the
next
30
days
or
the
next
four
meetings
was
not
necessarily
thinking
of
it
as
something
that
the
public
would
know
which
topics
are
coming.
So
they
know
what
to
sign
up
for
yeah.
Z
U
Yeah
I
think
these
are
good
overall
question
on
what
you're
just
talking
about.
Why
are
we
going
from
30
days
from
three
months
to
30
days,
the
quarters
three
months
according
calendar,
the.
B
That's
something
that
the
city
and
attorney
and
I
were
discussing.
Like
I
said
the
quarter
was
not
defined,
so
it
was
very
difficult
for
us
as
staff
to
look
at.
Was
it
a
rolling
quarter
or
was
it
just
q1
when
we're
looking
at
someone
who
hasn't
spoken
to
Council
in
the
last
quarter
and
knowing
what
meetings
to
look
at.
U
AA
AA
One
is
if
we
specify
maybe
a
couple
of
positions
that
are
by
default,
appointed
in
in
the
rules.
So,
for
example,
The
Next
Step
would
be
the
most
previous
mayor
most
recent
mayor
and
then
after
that
would
be
the
most
recent
deputy
mayor
and
then
after
that,
either
the
most
senior
member
on
Council
or
a
council
vote,
but
I
think
having
some
predictability
in
the
rules
versus
just
being
an
appointment.
Yeah
upfront.
AA
The
second
point
is
speaking
only
on
agenda
items,
I
think
whatever
we
do,
we
should
either
be
consistent
across
Council
and
boards
and
commissions,
or
be
more
lenient
and
counseled
than
on
boards
and
commissions.
I.
Don't
know
that
I.
Given
the
motivation
for
this
rule,
I,
don't
know
that
I
think
it's
fair
to
have
boards
and
commissions
have
to
deal
with
what
we're
trying
to
manage
and
not
counsel,
if
that
makes
sense.
AA
A
K
AA
That
you
had
to
speak
on
Indigent
night,
maybe
I
misread
yeah,
okay,
all
good
and
then
does
not
engaging
with
council
members
during
breaks
during
a
meeting.
Sorry,
not
engaging
with
council
members
during
them
or
staff.
During
a
meeting
does
that
include
breaks?
A
So
we
have
oh
go
ahead.
Definitely,
no,
oh
okay!
So
we
have
the
60
days
instead
of
the
30
days.
We
have
do
not
limit
comments
to
agenda
items
for
the
words
and
commissions
as
well.
We
already
have
that
true
for
the
council.
We
have,
in
anticipation
of
the
absence
remote
attendance.
The
mayor
can
appoint
a
presiding
officer
in
advance,
but
if,
if
there
is
no
advance
notice,
the
presiding
officer
would
be
the
individual
most
recently
mayor,
and
if
that
person's
not
available
the
person.
Most
recently
deputy
mayor.
AB
Go
ahead
so
this
this
part
of
the
of
your
rules
that
we're
touching
today
has
to
do
with
whether
one
person
is
going
to
be
remote
and
one
person
absent
or
both
people
remote.
There's
a
separate
section
of
your
rules
on
both
people
being
absent.
Would
you
like
us
to
make
those
consistent?
Yes,
okay,.
