A
Okay,
thank
you.
Welcome
to
the
city
of
bellevue,
regular
council
meeting
for
january
18
2022
we're
meeting
on
a
tuesday
because
yesterday
was
martin
luther
king
jr
day,
and
I
want
to
thank
the
city
and
the
bellevue
alumni
chapter
of
the
delta,
sigma
theta
sorority
and
the
president
wanda
egans
for
the
wonderful
event.
Yesterday
it
was
remarkable
and
it
also
had
a
health
fair
which
was
really
good.
A
So
could
you
please
clerk?
Do
the
roll
call.
C
A
Thank
you,
councilmember
barksdale.
Could
you
please
lead
us
in
the
flag
salute.
F
G
A
All
those
in
favor
say
aye
aye
city
clerk.
Do
we
have
anybody
signed
up
for
oral
communications.
B
H
Thank
you
good
evening,
mayor
robinson,
deputy
mayor
newinghouse
city,
council,
members
and
city
manager,
miyake.
Thank
you
for
the
opportunity
to
speak
tonight
and
a
belated
happy
new
year
to
you
all.
My
name
is
paul
bruno
I
live
in
bellevue
and
truly
appreciate
everything.
The
city
council
has
done
to
make
bellevue
a
wonderful
place
to
live
in
october
of
last
year,
I
had
the
pleasure
as
a
member
of
the
people
for
climate
action
and
as
a
citizen
of
bellevue
to
virtually
meet
with
most
of
you
to
discuss
the
environmental
stewardship
initiative.
H
However,
there
was
one
major
difference:
the
full-time
employees
at
each
of
those
cities
exceeded
bell
views
by
anywhere
from
three
to
nine
times
as
many.
This
has
contributed
to
these
five
cities
successfully
executing
their
plans
and,
in
many
cases,
a
reduction
of
the
greenhouse
gas
emissions
upward
to
26
percent
during
the
past
decade.
H
Otherwise,
it's
highly
unlikely
that
the
city
will
be
able
to
implement
measures
with
sufficient
urgency
and
diligence
to
cut
community-wide
emissions
50
by
the
year.
2030,
to
that
we
asked
the
city,
add
400
000
to
the
2022
budget
to
be
used
for
hiring
three
more
staff
dedicated
to
rapid
environmental
stewardship
plan
implementation,
and
I
might
add
also
that
the
two
current
employees,
jennifer
ewing
and
anna-
I'm
sorry.
I
can't
remember
her
last
name-
are
really
doing
a
tremendous
job,
but
they
need
help.
H
As
always,
the
people
for
climate
action
stand
ready
to
assist
the
city
in
any
way
possible
to
help
with
the
critical
initiative.
Thank
you
for
your
time.
B
I
Begins
now,
thank
you
so
much
for
allowing
me
to
speak,
I'm
rachel
doyle.
I
use
she
her
pronouns
and
I
just
want
to
agree
with
the
speaker
who
went
before
me
about
the
need
to
expand
the
staff
so
that
we
can
actually
achieve
all
the
environmental
concerns
that
are
happening.
I
think
bellevue
has
done
so
many
wonderful
forward,
thinking
things
and
properly
staffing.
The
environmental
group
would
help
make
sure
that
we'll
be
able
to
continue
all
of
these
wonderful
programs
in
the
future
and
be
conscious
of
the
climate
chaos
that
is
descending
upon
us.
B
J
Yes,
I
can,
can
you
hear
me?
Yes,
thank
you.
Your
time
begins
now.
Okay,
thank
you
good
evening,
mayor
robinson,
deputy
mayor
newton
house
and
city
council
members
and
bellevue
city
staff.
J
So
to
this
end,
I
asked
the
city
to
add
enough
funds
to
the
environmental
stewardship
plan
budget
to
hire
three
attention
additional
staff
this
year.
J
B
B
K
Great,
I
am
betsy
hummer.
I
currently
serve
as
the
chair
of
the
east
bellevue
community
council
and
mayor
robinson,
deputy
mayor
noon,
house
and
council
members,
I'm
here
tonight
to
ask
you
to
not
actively
support
house
bill.
1769
representative
larry
springer
from
the
45th
district
recently
introduced
the
house
bill
1769
to
artificially
sunset
community
councils
at
the
regular
meeting
of
east
bellevue
community
council
on
january
4th
2022
east
bellevue
community
council,
consisting
of
myself
as
chair
vice
chair
ron,
epstein
alternate
vice
chair
hassan
dhan
and
jaya
and
council
members.
K
Chi
ho
lai
and
steve
kastner
took
a
position
to
oppose
the
legislation.
East
bellevue
community
council
requests
that
the
bellevue
city
council
not
support
actively
support
larry
springer's
house
bill
1769,
rcw
35.14
established
community
councils.
It
is
the
reason
voters
in
east
bellevue
finally
agreed
to
annex
to
the
city
of
bellevue.
K
Rcw
35.14
already
contains
a
sunset
clause.
Every
four
years
voters
choose
to
continue
the
community
councils
in
november
2021
over
82
percent
of
the
voters
in
east
bellevue
voted
for
continuance
of
ebcc
for
over
20
years.
A
statement
of
opposition
has
not
been
filed
in
the
voters.
Pamphlet
constituents
in
east
bellevue
have
chosen
to
have
ebcc,
be
their
final
vote
on
certain
land
use
and
zoning
issues
in
their
neighborhood
east
bellevue.
K
B
B
B
Yes,
they
can
thank
you
and
we
understand
that
miss
english
has
a
presentation.
She
would
like
to
go
with
her
comments.
I'll
ask
miss
dolquist
to
bring
that
up.
Thank
you
and
miss
english
I'll,
be
tracking
your
three
minutes
separately,
I'll.
Let
you
know
when
you
get
to
one
minute
and
when
your
time
is
up,
you
can
begin
now.
C
Okay,
hello,
my
name
is
kirsten
english.
I
am
a
resident
of
enetai.
I
have
three
children,
I'm
here
on
behalf
of
my
neighbors,
because
we
had
an
unsafe
and
illegal
tree.
Removal
attempt
occur
over
the
weekend
next
slide.
Please
early
in
the
morning
on
january,
15th,
an
unlicensed
crew
arrived
to
remove
a
tree,
the
size
of
a
four-story
building
on
a
steep
hillside,
adjacent
to
homes,
power
lines
and
a
busy
roadway.
C
The
city
was
closed.
Neighbors
were
not
notified
and
there
was
no
road
crew.
You
can
see.
I've
included
a
picture
here.
This
tree
is
36.5
inches
in
diameter,
approximately
134
years
old,
my
neighbors
and
I
came
in
to
stop
the
crew.
You
know
to
ask
the
crew
what
was
happening
in
request
paperwork.
They
were
very
gruff
with
us
angry.
C
They
did
not
end
up
cutting
the
tree,
but
this
did
cause
me
to
look
into
this
next
slide.
Please,
the
original
application
is
a
subdivision
permit
and
there's
a
home.
That's
right.
Next
to
this
vacant
lot.
The
subdivision
permit
says
that
this
cedar
is
18
inches
in
diameter.
You
can
see
this
was
filed
in
2016..
C
We
measured
it
over
the
weekend,
it's
actually
36
and
a
half
inches
in
diameter.
Five
years
later,
it
doesn't
grow
like
trees.
Just
don't
grow
that
fast.
This
is
evidence
of
falsified
records
with
the
report
next
slide,
please,
the
original
subdivision
application
retained
a
14
inch
maple
to
meet
bellevue's
30
tree
retention
requirement.
C
The
maple
was
lost
in
a
storm
next
slide.
Please,
land
use
documents
from
june
obtained
through
a
public
records
request,
show
that
the
developer
represented
both
trees
as
no
longer
present
and
land
use
discovered
that
this
misrepresentation
was
present
through
aerial
photography
in
october,
2021
landu
said
that,
because
the
14
into
maple
was
damaged
by
a
storm,
the
adjacent
evergreen
should
be
retained.
C
The
evergreen
is
still
present,
he's
saying
it's
gone,
it's
been
cut,
it
has
not
actually
been
cut.
Okay,
so
next
slide,
please,
the
developer
was
attempting
to
remove
this
tree
before
the
city
would
notice
in
an
unsafe
and
unprofessional
manner,
endangering
the
public
and
property.
C
The
city
council
should
flag
building
permit
number
included
here
as
inaccurate,
ensure
that
land
use
and
city
compliance
follow
up
with
the
developer,
to
you
know
ensure
the
retention
of
the
seater
and
investigate
adding
a
tip
line.
It's
only
because
me,
and
ten
of
my
neighbors
went
around
all
weekend
to
stop
these
crews
from
this
unsafe
behavior
sent
a
letter
in
today
to
the
city,
and
you
know
I
took
time
to
present
to
this
meeting,
that
this
tree
isn't
already
down
or
property
is
not
already
damaged.
C
C
B
B
L
L
It
came
with
a
sunset
clause
which
allows
the
voters
in
the
district
to
vote,
to
continue
it
or
to
disband
it
every
four
years.
Imagine
our
surprise
when,
after
the
neighborhood
voted
to
keep
it
with
an
eight
with
82
percent
of
the
vote
just
last
year,
the
legislature
is
trying
to
put
it
out
of
existence.
L
Local
involvement
in
government
is
one
of
the
hallmarks
of
american
society.
This
is
one
avenue
for
local
involvement.
The
limited
duties
of
the
community
council
are
important
to
the
citizens
of
the
district,
and
that's
why
it
was
voted
in.
Yet
again,
last
year,
based
on
that
success,
the
lake
hills,
neighborhood
board
voted
unanimously
to
support
the
continuation
of
the
east
bellevue
community
council,
and
I
am
here
to
ask
you
for
the
same
support
for
the
recent
decision
that
your
constituents
made.
L
A
Okay,
thank
you.
So,
council
members
on,
we
know
you
were
in
dc,
but
I
think
that
you
received
a
war,
an
award
on
behalf
of
our
city.
I
was
wondering
if
you
could
give
us
a
little
synopsis
of
that.
F
F
And
I
believe
that
this
really
positions
us
well
as
we
look
at
the
1.2
trillion
dollars
of
the
federal
infrastructure,
investment
and
jobs,
act
and
position
ourselves
very
well
for
the
grants
and
in
fact,
at
the
end
of
the
session
where
we
talked
about
and
we
brainstormed
the
six
different
areas
where
we
can
do
more
to
create
a
safer
network.
F
F
She
gave
remarks
at
the
beginning
along
with
me
and
then
at
the
end,
she
tweeted
this
message
about
the
fact
that
she
was
thrilled
to
join
and
talk
about
the
need
to
transition
to
a
safe
systems
approach
to
address
a
growing
public
health
crisis
on
our
roads.
The
city
of
bellevue
is
doing
an
outstanding
job
and
then
they
reference
our
vision,
zero
work
and
the
strategic
plan
that
we
have
and
the
action
plan
that
we
have
in
place.
So
it's
a
very
exciting
opportunity
to
highlight
our
work
and
position
us
very
well
for
the
funding.
A
M
Yes,
thank
you
mayor
and
council
members.
M
I
have
actually
two
items
reported
on
under
the
city
manager's
report,
one
which
was
in
your
packet
this
evening
and
the
second
one
that
was
not,
but
the
the
one
in
your
package
is
a
good
news
story,
as
it
relates
to
an
opportunity
staff
has
undertaken
based
on
feedback
we
received
from
the
council
in
2019
when
we
reviewed
with
you,
the
city's
americans
with
disabilities
act,
self-evaluation
and
transition
plan
joining
us
this
evening
are
blaine
amson,
our
ada
title
iv,
program
administrator
out
of
the
human
resources
department
and
tom
bersal
structural
operations
manager
in
parks
and
community
services
department
to
share
more
with
you
about
this.
N
Thank
you,
city
manager,
miyagi
and
good
evening,
mayor
deputy
mayor
and
council
members,
thanks
so
much
for
having
us
here
tonight
to
talk
about
a
project
that
is
relatively
small
in
scope,
but
massive
in
community
inclusion
and
quality
of
life,
accessible,
changing
tables
at
several
park.
Locations
throughout
the
city
will
be
a
game
changer
for
residents
and
visitors
with
access
and
functional
needs
who
still
want
to
enjoy
bellevue.
N
N
Thank
you.
This
presentation
is
for
information
only
tonight
with
no
action
being
requested
from
council,
but
we
want
to
share
this
good
work
with
you
next
slide.
Please
we'll
take
you
through
some
of
the
background
of
how
we
got
here
and
then
we'll
share
some
specifics
on
the
project,
scope,
installation
sites
and
how
all
of
this
ties
together
with
our
council
vision
and
priorities.
N
Next
slide.
Please
about
three
years
ago
we
were
updating
the
city's
americans
with
disabilities
act
and
self-evaluation
and
transition
plan,
which
is
a
long
title
for
a
guiding
document
that
sets
our
intentions
and
obligations
related
to
meeting
the
ada
or
the
americans
with
disabilities
act
and
living
up
to
our
city's
vision
of
welcoming
the
world
and
seeing
diversity,
including
diverse
abilities
as
a
key
strength
during
outreach
with
the
community.
N
The
inspiration
playground
at
downtown
park
was
specifically
designed
several
years
ago
to
accommodate
any
needs
that
children,
disabled
or
non-disabled,
might
have
so
accessible.
Changing
tables
were
installed
at
the
playground
restroom.
This
feature
surfaced
multiple
times.
As
we
asked
the
community
for
feedback
for
the
self-evaluation
and
transition
plan.
N
They
said
that
they
recognized
the
value
this
feature
could
have.
If
the
city
expanded
locations
for
these
accessible,
changing
tables
for
both
adults
and
children,
they
would
be
a
key
amenity
for
caregivers
and
residents
with
needs
for
accessible
hygiene,
allowing
them
to
spend
more
time
out
and
about
in
bellevue,
knowing
that,
if
there
was
a
changing
table,
nearby
facilities
could
support
their
needs.
N
We
were
so
fortunate
to
have
enterprising
members
of
our
city's
intergovernmental
relations.
Team,
see
this
value
too
and
join
with
our
park
staff
to
pursue
funding
to
make
to
make
this
happen.
During
the
2020
legislative
session,
and
now
I'd
like
to
welcome
my
colleague
tom
purcell,
from
parks
to
talk
about
some
of
the
details.
O
O
Ultimately,
this
effort
was
aimed
at
the
purchase
and
installation
of
accessible
changing
tables
at
eight
park
sites
and
facilities
in
all.
This
grant
will
support
the
installation
of
13
changing
tables
and
the
ongoing
maintenance
to
ensure
that
they
remain
functional,
safe
and
usable
for
community
members,
as
we
project
project
timelines
during
this
time
of
extended
supply
chain
challenges
for
this
body
of
work,
we
anticipate
all
the
tables
will
be
installed
by
early
2023
with
the
installation
starting
early
sometime
this
year
at
some
locations
next
slide.
Please.
O
O
Staff
has
worked
hard
to
distribute
these
installations
across
the
systems,
but
we
had
to
live
within
some
hard
realities
in
choosing
locations,
the
overriding
reality
being
the
overall
internal
size
and
maneuverability.
Within
the
available
space
we
were
working
with
without
impacting
others
needing
ada
access,
all
the
while
taking
into
account
the
footprint
of
the
changing
table
deployed
or
in
the
down
position.
N
N
But
I
hope,
if
you
take
away
one
thing,
it's
this:
it's
that
this
effort
will
undoubtedly
increase
the
faith
and
knowledge
that
residents
have
that
the
city
of
bellevue
lives
its
vision.
This
project
embodies
how
we
think
about
truly
welcoming
the
world,
embracing
our
diversity
as
a
cultural
characteristic
and
strength
and
how
we
take
action
based
on
those
principles.
N
M
Thank
you
so
much
pauline
and
tom
mayor,
deputy
deputy
mayor
and
council
members.
I
do
have
another
report
tonight
and
that
is
a
briefing
on
the
house
that
slid
off
its
foundation
up
in
the
7
neighborhood.
You
know
by
doubt
saw
this
on
the
media
received
a
lot
of
media
attention.
As
you
know,
some
residents
in
the
somerset
neighborhood
began
yesterday
with
just
such
a
terrifying
experience,
and
I
must
say
that
our
hearts
go
out
to
those
who
remain
displaced.
Today.
M
M
As
you
know,
they
rescued
a
couple
from
their
house
that
had
slid
and
tilted
from
its
foundation.
Officers
also
rescued
a
dog,
given
several
factors
surrounding
them
that
many
service
personnel
and
specialized
disciplines
were
actually
brought
in
to
ensure
the
safety
of
the
people
living
along
the
street.
M
A
number
of
homes
were
evacuated
due
to
safety
concerns
and
the
impacted
residents
were
evacuated
to
the
south
bellevue
community
center
for
shelter.
We
are
really
grateful
for
the
partnership
the
city
has
with
the
red
cross,
who
actually
responded
to
the
communities
who
responded
and
staffed
the
community
center
and
supported
the
evacuees
all
day.
M
More
importantly,
though,
no
one
was
injured
and
no
one
was
killed,
so
no
lives
were
lost,
so
injuries
were
minimal.
So
during
the
day,
staff
helped
retrieve
the
longest
of
residents,
city
staff
and
red
cross
assist,
making
sure
all
residents
had
a
place
to
stay.
In
the
meantime,
the
response
continues
and
experts
are
assessing
when
it
will
be
safe
for
neighbors
to
return
to
their
homes.
Once
the
road
has
been
sufficiently
clear
to
debris,
as
well
as
evaluations
take
place,
determine
the
cause
which
a
lot
of
people
are
asking.
It
will
take
some
time
again.
M
We
are
thankful
that
everyone
is
safe.
More
information
will
be
shared
with
the
city
council,
as
well
as
the
city,
as
new
information
becomes
available.
Those
that
ends
my
two
reports
this
evening.
There.
A
D
A
Okay,
next
up,
we
have
a
land
use
consideration.
Mr
miyaki,
would
you
like
to
introduce
this.
M
Q
Yes,
my
apologies.
I
could
not
get
my
camera
to
cooperate,
so
thank
you,
mr
miyaki
and
good
evening,
mayor
and
council
members.
So
the
the
item
before
you
tonight
for
consideration
is
the
application
to
rezone
slightly
over
three
acre
portion
of
the
glendale
country
club
from
single
family,
low
density
to
multi-family
medium
density.
Q
So
this
is
a
process,
three
quasi-judicial
proceeding
which,
as
you
know,
means
that
the
hearing
examiner
issues
a
recommendation
after
holding
a
hearing
and
then
the
final
decision
is
the
councils
to
make,
and
in
this
case
the
hearing
examiner
did
recommend
approval
of
the
application
and
no
appeal
was
filed.
So
no
final
action
is
being
asked
by
the
council
tonight.
The
purpose
of
being
here
tonight
is
to
provide
you
with
an
overview
of
the
project
and
allow
you
to
ask
any
questions
you
may
have
based
on
the
record.
That's
in
the
hearing
examiner's
record.
Q
Q
However,
I
will
mayor,
because
this
is
a
quasi-judicial
proceeding-
suggests
that
you
provide
council
members
with
the
opportunity
to
disclose,
on
the
record
any
ex
parte
communications
they
may
have
had
with
the
applicant
or
anyone
else
in
support
or
opposition
of
the
project,
and
the
clerk's
office
has
already,
as
as
they
do
looked
at
the
council
emails.
So
there
are
no
emails
to
disclose,
so
any
disclosures
would
be
outside
of
your
council
emails.
R
Thank
you,
city
attorney,
garla
and
mayor
robinson,
deputy
mayor
newinghouse
and
council
members.
Thank
you
for
having
us
here
this
evening.
Mr
pittman
will
be
presenting
the
city
staff
report
for
the
project.
It
is
a
rezone
of
a
small
portion
of
the
glendale
golf
country
club,
and
it
is
located
at
the
intersection
of
137th
and
northeast
8th.
So
mr
pittman
will
go
through
this
and
I
will
pass
it
over
to
him
for
a
powerpoint
presentation.
Thank
you.
S
Good
evening
I'm
riley
pittman,
I
am
the
planner
who
reviewed
the
glendale
rezone
and
I'm
here
to
give
a
brief
presentation.
As
we
said,
this
is
a
rezone
of
a
the
northeast
corner
of
the
glendale
country
club,
which
is
located
adjacent
to
northeast
eighth.
S
As
we
already
said,
this
is
a
process,
three
quasi-judicial
project
or
permit
that's
where
the
development
services
director
issues
a
recommendation
to
the
city's
hearing,
examiner
cities,
hearing
examiner,
held
a
public
hearing
in
november
of
2021
and
then
issued
a
recommendation
of
approval
to
the
city
council
on
november
30th
of
2021
and
tonight
this
is
this
has
been.
The
recommendation
from
the
hearing.
Examiner
is
to
the
city
council
for
consideration.
S
Just
a
little
background,
there
was
a
comprehensive
plan,
amendment
associated
with
this,
that
was
reviewed
through
the
planning
commission
and
the
city
council
in
2020,
and
that
culminated
in
a
ordinance
and
resolution
in
2020,
as
well
as
a
separate
determination
of
non-significance
in
october
of
2020..
S
So
this
again,
this
this
slo,
this
project
or
this
rezone,
is
actually
in
the
location
or
in
the
jurisdiction
of
the
east
bellevue
community
council.
As
you
can
see
on
the
slide,
it's
in
the
western
portion
of
their
jurisdiction
area,
the
site
is
also
composed
of
two
parcels,
and
so
there
was
an
associated
boundary
line
adjustment
which
moved
the
western
parcel
to
be
in
the
northeast
corner
of
this
property
in
order
to
be
rezoned.
So
the
the
second
parcel
is
what
is
being
rezoned
with
the
bulk
of
the
property
remaining
as
it
currently
exists.
S
Just
an
overview
of
the
zoning
surrounding
the
site,
the
current
site
of
the
glendale
country
club
is
zoned.
R1,
that's
single
family
residential
and,
as
you
can
see
in
the
majority
of
the
surrounding
area,
is
also
a
zone
single-planet
residential
with
different
densities
of
r
2.5
and
r
3.5
directly
to
the
east
of
this
of
the
glendale
site
along
northeast
8th.
The
properties
are
zoned
multifamily,
that's
at
r30,
and
the
request
for
this
site
is
to
be
zoned
r10
and
that's
30
units
per
acre
or
10
units
per
acre
for
the
requested
rezone.
S
The
current
site
is
used
as
a
golf
course,
so
it's
predominantly
lawn
and
all
shrubs
and
a
lot
of
trees,
notably
the
kelsey
creek.
It
does
flow
along
the
western
portion
of
the
site
and
then
in
vicinity
of
the
proposed
rezone
in
the
northeast
corner
of
the
site.
There
are
some
wetlands
and
critical
areas
that
would
be
accounted
for
as
part
of
any
future
development
of
that
parcel.
S
S
As
part
of
the
review
this,
the
project
was
subject
to
public
notice
and
signage
was
posted
on
the
site.
Due
to
some
noticing
error,
there
was
a
there
were.
There
were
two
courtesy
hearings
with
the
east
bellevue
community
council
won
in
may
of
2021
and
then
one
in
september
of
2021
just
to
make
sure
that
the
community
surrounding
it
received
adequate
and
public
notice
for
our
code
in
minutes
from
both
of
those
ebcc
meetings
are
included
in
the
file
that
was
provided.
S
The
hearing
examiner
reviewed
the
development
services
project
file
and
found
that
the
project
or
the
proposed
rezone
was
consistent
with
the
language
code
and
any
codes
that
would
be
subject
to
it
in
the
future,
such
as
the
criticalized
ordinance
or
the
transition
overlay.
A
A
So
any
comments
or
questions
should
be
based
on
the
criteria
that
we're
gonna
see
in
just
a
second.
A
Okay,
any
comments
or
questions
not
seeing
any
there's
one
council
member,
I'm
not
seeing,
but
I
think
we're
all
good
okay,
so
that
was
just
for
consideration,
so
we
can
move
on
to
our
study
session
items.
Thank
you
very
much
for
the
presentation.
Mr
miyake.
Would
you
like
to
introduce?
We
have
three
study
session
items
tonight.
I
believe.
M
Yes,
we
have
three
study
session
items
and
the
first
one
is
an
informational
briefing
from
the
washington
department
of
transportation
on
the
I-405
state
route
167
corridor,
including
the
I-405
renton
to
bellevue,
widening
and
express
tow
lanes
project.
Again.
This
is
information.
This
is
an
informational
briefing.
The
council
is
not
being
asked
for
any
direction,
but
rather
tonight
is
an
opportunity
to
provide
comments,
as
well
as
to
ask
questions
so
joining
us.
M
This
evening
is
lacey,
jane
wolf
assistant
director
of
given
governmental
relationships
out
of
the
city,
manager's
office,
katie
simba,
halsey
policy
advisor
in
the
transportation
department,
and
then
we
have
some
additional
guests,
which
I
will
allow
lacey
jane
wolf
to
introduce
for
this
evening.
Lacie
jane
I'll
hand
it
over
to
you.
T
Good
evening,
it's
fun
to
be
here
tonight
to
be
talking
about
one
of
council's
priority
items.
I-405
corridor
and,
as
you
know,
bellevue
is
advocating
during
this
current
state
legislative
session
for
filling
the
gap
on
on
I-405,
mayor
robinson
and
council
member
mayor,
robinson
and
councilmember.
Robertson
recently
testified
on
this
need
last
week,
and
I
know
that
council
members
on
has
also
been
advocating
to
to
build
stakeholder
support
for
this
important
council
priority.
T
So
I
I
it
would
be
easy
to
forget,
while
we're
doing
all
of
that
work
on
filling
the
funding
gap
about
the
project.
That's
happening
right
now,
all
around
us
and
that's
what
we've
brought
washdot
here
to
talk
to
us
about
the
I-405
written
to
bellevue,
widening
and
express
toll
lanes
project.
T
As
you
know,
this
is
going
to
benefit
not
only
people
who
drive
on
405,
but
also
people
who
take
transit,
who
use
the
east
trail,
one
of
the
regional
trails
to
to
bike
and
walk
with
their
families.
So
a
very
exciting
project
that
I
know
is
a
favorite
of
ours
before
I
introduce
our
guest
from
washdot,
I'd
like
to
take
a
minute
to
introduce
bellevue's
transportation
policy
advisor
katie,
casimba
halsey,
who
joined
the
city
in
july,
katie
has
brought
a
wealth
of
knowledge
and
expertise
to
our
city
and
put
it
to
work
immediately.
T
T
Thanks
katie
and
that's
a
great
transition
to
to
introduce
our
guest
speakers
tonight
we
have
three
representatives
from
waustrat's
I-405
sr
167
program,
including
deputy
program
administrator,
rob
wick,
engineering
manager,
gil
mcnabb
and
public
information,
craig
smiley,
and
we
also
have
joining
us
tonight-
ken
horton
construction
manager,
from
flat
iron
lane
joint
venture,
which
I
believe
is
the
contractor
for
this
project.
So
you
have
a
wealth
of
technical
experts
here
to
tonight.
Without
further
ado,
let
me
turn
it
over
to
rob.
V
V
V
We
are
working
off
of
a
master
planned
vision,
that's
approximately
20
years
old.
I
think
everybody
on
on
this
is
probably
pretty
familiar
with
the
master
plan
vision,
but
it's
effectively
a
expressed
bull
lane
and
bus
rapid
transit
system
that
will
provide
significant
benefits
to
the
overall
functionality
of
our
corridor
throughout
the
entire.
You
can
see
the
map
there,
the
entire
stretch
of
that
map,
as
well
as
connections
to
other
corridors.
V
There's
a
pretty
significant
gap
associated
with
that,
depending
on
the
scenario
that
you
look
at
it's
anywhere
from
approximately
175
million
dollar
gap
up
to
in
excess
of
450
million
dollars.
We
were
tasked
with
a
couple
of
provisos
coming
out
of
the
last
legislative
session
in
2021.
V
One
of
those
provisos
focused
us
largely
on
trying
to
minimize
the
gap
or
reduce
it
all
together
and
to
come
up
with
delivery
scenarios
that
could
provide
paths
forward
to
not
only
find
ways
of
closing
that
gap,
but
also
funding
whatever
the
remaining
gap
is
and
try
and
provide
all
of
the
projects
that
have
come
out
in
previous
legislative
bills.
I
know
a
lot
of
the
folks
in
the
bellevue
area
are
largely
concerned
about
not
only
renting
to
bellevue,
but
the
associated
522
to
527
and
north
end
projects
and
those
north
end.
V
What
the
governor's
proposed
budget
allows
for
is
the
closing
of
the
450
million
dollar
gap,
which
brings
forward
the
522
to
527
and
brt
in
line
with
the
sound
transit
delivery
and
also
moves
forward.
A
167
express
or
x
box
lane
project
and
toll
upgrade
project
which
function
actually
in
along
with
the
rendezvous
project
that
we're
going
to
be
talking
about
tonight.
So
we'll
see
what
happens
during
the
legislative
session.
V
You
know
all
all
bets
are
off
during
the
leg
session,
so
hopefully
things
will
will
go
well.
Obviously
we
are
positioned
to
deal
with
whatever
we
get
out
of
the
legislative
session
and
we'll
act
on
that.
But
we
do
have
a
very
significant
active
construction
project
in
retina
bellevue.
That
has
direct
impacts
on
your
city
and
so
we're
going
to
give
you
some
updates
on
that
tonight
and
just
briefly
touching
on
the
agenda.
V
So
we've
hit
welcome
in
introductions
we're
going
to
get
a
project
overview
and
then
progress
on
some
of
the
early
milestones
and
they're
in
the
bellevue
project.
V
P
We
have
you
yeah
great,
thank
you
rob
so
just
to
give
a
a
brief
project
overview.
P
So
what
we're
looking
at
here
is
approximately
12
mile
corridor
of
I-405
from
bellevue
down
to
renton,
and
the
objective
of
this
project
is
pretty
simple:
we're
widening
405
a
lot
of
complexities
and
implementing,
but
the
objective
is
pretty
straightforward,
so
we
are
widening
405
by
one
lane
in
each
direction,
both
the
north
and
southbound
direction
and
to
create
the
express
toll
lanes,
and
so
these
will
connect
up
to
the
northeast
six,
where
the
in
bellevue,
where
the
express
toll
lanes
currently
terminate
at
the
south
end
and
continue
that
same
operation
down
to
sr
167
down
in
rattan.
P
So
this
will
match
up
down
in
renton
with
the
recently
completed
direct
connector
project.
That's
the
flyover
ramp
that
we
call
it
from
405
to
167..
So
when
this
job's
done
it
will
connect
up
directly
to
that
and
offer
continuous
express
toll
lane
from
405
to
167..
So
it's
a
pretty
significant
segment.
You
know
this
once
we
complete
this,
it's
it's
a
really
significant
milestone
and
the
whole.
P
You
know
40
plus
miles
of
managed
lanes
between
I-5
at
the
north
end
we're
405
i5
junction
and
to
the
south
for
all
of
405
and
167
down
to
puyallup
there's
a
lot
of
other
kind
of
things
that
are
tied
into
this
project.
Besides
the
dual
express
toll
lanes,
we
have
partnerships
with
city
of
renton
and
sound
transit
in
king
county.
P
P
Also,
in
partnership
with
king
county
we've
constructed
a
portion
of
the
east
rail
trail
system
to
the
west,
just
between
I-405
and
lake
washington,
and
also
in
the
green
segments
that
you
can
see
there.
P
That
is
some
added
general
traffic
capacity,
southbound
405,
where
we
currently
have
some
choke
points
between
I-90
and
112th,
and
then
also
between
northeast
44th
and
northeast
30th
street
to
the
south,
where
there's
that's
on
a
hill
and
so
often
times
you
have
truck
slowdowns
there,
and
so
the
additional
general
purpose
capacity
will
help
alleviate
that
we
do
have.
You
know
we're
well
aware
of
the
mountains
of
sound
greenway,
that
you
know
they
currently
there's
the
the
project
for
that
through
the
factoria
area.
P
That
I
think
is
about
finished
up,
but
we
have
work
in
that
area
too.
Around
the
I-90
interchange,
so
lots
of
coordination,
lots
of
different
entities
go
ahead.
Craig
next
slide.
So
this
this
is
kind
of
near
and
dear
to
the
project
team.
This
is
this
is
a
big
project
and
this
is
a
quite
a
small
piece
of
it,
but
it's
significant
in
that
this
is
kind
of
the
first
milestone.
P
If
you
will
for
the
project
and
that
is
being
able
to
open
up
the
south
2.5
miles
of
east
rail
trail,
and
so
you
may
recognize
some
of
your
colleagues
here
in
the
in
the
photo
king
county
had
a
an
opening
on
november
10th,
with
participation
by
washington
city
of
bellevue
and
yeah,
and
also
participating
next
slide.
P
And
this
is
just
some
well,
we
have
an
actual
construction
operation
here
that
shows
work
progressing
on
the
east
rail
pedestrian
bridge
over
405.
This
is
near
mercer
slough.
So
this
is
one
of
the
the
bridge,
abutments
or
foundations-
that's
going
in
here,
and
you
can
see
the
rendering
at
the
top
there
so
definitely
have
a
lot
of
construction
underway
and
here's
a
couple
other
examples
of
some
of
the
construction
that's
taking
place,
and
I
will
point
out
in
the
top
right
corner
here:
44th
interchange.
P
This
is
a
rendering
of
approximately
how
this
will
appear
when
it's
all
constructed
a
lot
of
work
here.
This
is
kind
of
one
of
the
interchanges.
Primary
interchange
is
kind
of
driving
the
schedule
on
the
entire
project.
This
is
essentially
in
the
middle
of
the
job,
and
the
project
is
sort
of
driven
by
the
progress
on
this
piece
of
work,
because
it
has
a
long
timeline
which
were
well
underway
on
next
slide.
P
And
that
brings
us
to
the
main
street
bridge
replacement
in
bellevue.
So
this
is
another
kind
of
very
significant
critical
piece
of
work.
That's
coming
up
very
soon
is
the
planned
closure
of
main
street,
and
this
is
essentially,
we
need
to
demolish
the
bridge,
the
existing
bridge
and
replace
it
essentially
in
order
to
accommodate
the
widening
in
the
support
structure
for
main
street,
but
primarily
to
accommodate
the
widening
405
through
a
very
urban
area.
P
Currently,
work
is
anticipated
to
begin
in
march
of
next
next
or
yeah
march
early
march,
and
we're
looking
at
other
potential.
P
Weekends
as
contingencies,
work
is
to
be
completed
in
august.
P
That's
if
we
get
started
on
time
and
the
whole
thing
will
kick
off
with
a
full
weekend
closure
to
bring
down
the
existing
bridge,
remove
it,
and
then
that
would
be
followed
by
a
150-day
calendar
day,
closure
of
main
street
in
order
to
rebuild
the
structure
there
and
get
it
open
to
a
single
lane
in
each
direction.
Capacity
for
an
additional
60
days.
P
So
during
the
weekend
closure
what
this
shows
in
the
red
hatcheries-
that's
essentially
the
closure
limits
from
southeast
8th
street
bellevue
to
the
south
and
northeast
4th
to
the
north
in
the
orange,
of
course,
that's
main
street.
So
that's
where
the
the
you
know,
the
bulk
of
the
work
will
take
place
because
the
weekend
closure
has
such
a
large
impact
to
the
entire
region.
Really,
when
we
close
down
405,
there's
a
lot
of
other
work
activities
that
will
be
coordinated
along
with
this
particular
closure.
P
You
can
kind
of
see
the
sign
detours,
what
those
will
be.
You
know
utilizing
fourth
and
one
sixteenth,
given
that
there's
a
number
of
roadway
crossings
and
interchanges
here,
I
think
you
know
certainly
the
local
folks
and
the
commuters
will
find
their
way.
There's
plenty
of
alternates,
but
you
know
there
will
be
signed
detour
in
place
and,
of
course,
for
this
too
we'll
have
the
major
detours.
You
know
around
405
to
the
interstate
route,
such
as
you
know,
utilizing
I-5,
I-90
and
sr-520.
P
P
So
the
sign
detour
again
will
be
across
northeast
4th,
which
is,
in
the
you
know
the
most
immediate
vicinity.
You
know
utilizing
110th,
112th
avenues
and
116th
avenues,
it
kind
of
shows
some
other
potential
roadway
opens
and
the
little
green
segments
there
at
northeast,
8th
and
also
down
at
southeast,
8th
and
and
and
certainly
even
some
points
further
north.
You
know
to
get
to
navigate
through
bellevue
during
this
disclosure
impact.
P
I
just
do
want
to
also
acknowledge
with
this
that
you
know
the
schedule,
for
this
is
intended
to
avoid
the
holiday
period
between
november
15th
to
january
2nd,
so
that
is,
that
is
a
contract
requirement
and
also
that
this
single
phase,
150
days
essentially
to
get
the
bridge
back
operational,
is
a
little
different
than
the
original
concept
in
our
in
our
contract.
P
In
that
you
know,
we
had
it's
essentially
a
full
closure
for
a
much
shorter
impact
kind
of
a
rip
off
the
band-aid
approach.
If
you
will
to
where
per
our
concept,
it
would
have
been
600
calendar
days
of
of
continuous.
You
know
one-way
traffic
in
each
direction
or
one
lane
I
should
say,
of
traffic
in
each
direction
versus
two
lanes,
so
shorter
duration,
but
full
closure
in
this
case,
and
that
was
conceived
by
our
contractor.
X
X
X
All
the
material
when
it
comes
down
will
go
off-site
at
very
various
intervals.
We
don't
have
a
set
schedule
for
demolition
debris.
Removal
is
going
to
be
ongoing,
constant
activity
through
the
weekend
closure,
and
so
by
the
end
of
the
weekend
the
bridge
will
be
gone.
We'll
have
a
new
traffic
configuration
on
I-405
that
will
allow
us
to
build
the
new
pier
in
the
center
between
the
southbound
and
northbound
and
start
on
the
abutments
on
both
the
east
and
west
side,
the
bridge
so
moving
forward.
X
Our
schedule
will
focus
on
the
pier
in
the
middle
there's
the
most
amount
of
work
in
the
middle.
It
obviously
supports
both
spans,
so
our
focus
is
peer
and
then
we
work
on
both
abutments.
While
pure
work
is
going
on
get
a
couple
months
down
the
road
we
get
in
the
may
time
frame,
end
of
may,
where
we
actually
have
girders
getting
ready
to
be
set,
so
we
bring
girders.
X
So
we
intend
to
build
the
bridge
to
a
point
where
we
can
put
a
lane
of
traffic
in
the
center
of
the
bridge.
Both
go
east
and
west
and
that'll
give
us
the
last
two
months,
the
last
60
days
before
our
deadline
finishing
out
the
outsides
of
the
bridge,
the
barriers,
the
handrails,
the
sidewalks
and
that
kind
of
stuff.
W
I'm
up
and
I'll
be
talking
about
our
outreach
and
coordination
for
this
work.
First,
I'd
like
to
really
give
a
big
thanks
to
the
city
staff.
You
know
they've
been
participating
in
our
weekly
task
force,
information
meetings
and
keeping
us
in
the
loop
on
what's
going
on
in
bellevue,
really
from
the
beginning
of
the
project.
W
We
began
meeting
regularly
for
planning
and
coordination
of
this
specific
work
back
in
early
december
of
2021
and
really
appreciate
the
feedback
and
the
view
that
they've
been
providing
us
with
our
communications
plans,
our
outreach
materials
and
really
hoping
helping
us
focus
our
local
community
efforts.
So
this
briefing
tonight
is
really
kind
of
the
kickoff
to
our
our
public-facing
outreach
and
coordination
for
this
work.
W
So,
during
our
planning
event,
efforts
with
the
city
staff,
we
kind
of
took
an
inventory
of
both
city
and
watchdog
resources
to
help
kind
of
get
the
message
out
to
the
public
and
we
decided
on
a
combination
of
outreach
methods
and
avenues
at
washdot.
Our
philosophy
is
really
to
leave
the
web.
That
means
you
know,
updates
to
our
project
websites
post
to
the
watchdog
blog
utilizing,
our
social
media
presence
on
twitter
and
facebook.
W
We
also
use
city
of
bellevue's
web
resources
like
the
it's,
your
city,
publication
and
the
city's
next
door
account.
So
we're
really
going
to
be
utilizing
kind
of
a
combination
of
digital
media
and
traditional
media
as
well
as
well
as
traditional
community
outreach
methods
such
as
postcard
mailings
and
doing
business
outreach.
W
So
our
goal
is
really
to
get
the
word
out
to
the
community
about
the
work
that's
gonna
be
affecting
them
right.
Next
to
you
know
downtown
bellevue
and
main
street.
W
Let's
also
let
the
drivers
know
about
the
impacts
of
the
full
weekend
closure
to
try
and
reduce
trips
and
help
them
plan
ahead,
encourage
them
to
delay
their
trips
to
the
off-peak
hours
and
help
find
alternate
routes
for
them
generally
big,
full
weekend
closure
like
this,
we
see
about
a
20
reduction
in
trips,
just
based
off
the
outreach
efforts
and
that's
really
kind
of
the
metric
that
we're
shooting
for
to
get
the
word
out
on
this.
So
another
thing,
I'll
mention
briefly,
is
we're.
W
Looking
at
doing
a
potential
demolition
viewing
opportunity,
so
if
that's
something
that
council
members
would
be
interested,
get
a
hold
of
lacy,
jane
or
katie
and
we'd
be
happy
to
try
and
coordinate
that
for
you,
and
I
guess
we
can
take
some
questions
from
there.
A
E
Thank
you.
I
just
have
one
question
in
terms
of
bike
pet
experience,
just
given
its
detours
and
people
just
being
confused
about
the
change
and
and
sort
of
where
they
need
to
go,
are
there
strategies
or
approaches
that
were
taken
to
mitigate
impacts
to
bike
bikers
and
pedestrians.
W
Excuse
me
we'll
be
reaching
out
to
cascade
bike
club
as
one
of
our
strategies
for
bikers
pedestrians
is
really
kind
of
what
we
focused
on
as
far
as
washouts
website
city
bellevue's
resources
and
our
blog.
That's
really
kind
of
pedestrians.
Also
we'll
have
signed
detours
that
will
be
placed
out
there
ahead
of
the
work.
E
Just
thinking
about
maybe
like
I
know,
we've
done
sort
of
the
delayed
pedestrian
signal
and
they're
they're
dedicated
by
signals
that
give
them.
You
know
some
time
to
be
more
visible
or
dedicated
time
to
to
go.
I
don't
know
if
that's
something
that
we
might
consider.
W
D
Thank
you
before
I
ask
my
question.
I
just
wanted
to
express
my
appreciation
for
washdot
and
the
405
team.
We've
had
a
really
long
standing
great
partnership,
we
I've
seen
different
faces,
come
and
go
from
the
405
team,
but
to
a
person
every
single
person's
been
great
to
work
with,
and
I
just
really
wanted
to
appreciate
my
appreciation
for
that
and
let's
hope
that
the
governor's
budget
goes
through,
so
that
we
can
keep
doing
great
work
to
make
405
a
better
corridor
for
everyone.
D
So
my
question
is:
when
we're
building
the
new
main
street
bridge,
are
we
going
to
have
any
other
than
the
full
weekend
closure?
Are
we
going
to
have
any
lane
closures
on
405,
north
or
south,
and
if
so,
how
will
those
be
scheduled.
W
X
Yeah
sure
there
there's
definitely
going
to
be
other
lane
closures.
We
would
embrace
the
notification
periods
that
the
city
is
asking
for
us
for
these
upcoming
closures,
but
in
general,
for
the
girder
setting
operation
for
the
deck
they'll
be
full
nighttime
closures,
not
a
whole
weekend
closure,
probably
three
on
each
direction
of
405.
X
shouldn't
affect
it'll,
be
the
same
detour
route
but
it'll
be
late.
At
night
there
there's
like
six
and
seven.
I
think
they're
like
six
hour
windows
for
each
of
those
things,
and
then
we
have
periodic
lane
closures
where
we
are
can
take
lanes
throughout
the
construction
on
the
highway,
but
those
are
also
nighttime
operations.
So,
during
the
day,
it's
full
405
traffic
with
their
full
lane
availability,
and
then
we
had
these
other
things.
That
night.
D
Great,
that's
really
helpful,
I'm
glad
that
not
only
are
we
avoiding
the
am
pm
peaks
we're
avoiding
all
during
the
day,
I
I
assume
there'll
be
signage
in
whatever
direction
has
lanes
closed
or
full
closure
north
of
520
for
southbound
and
south
of
I-90
for
northbound,
so
that
people,
if
they're
running
the
corridor
beyond
bellevue,
that
they
can
take
an
option
and
take
a
bridge
and
go
I-5.
That
is
that
a
correct
assumption.
W
D
G
Thank
you
mayor,
and
I
too
want
to
thank
the
washout
team
for
coming
here
today
and
giving
us
an
update
on
this
a
couple
of
quick
questions
on
on
the
on
the
main
street
bridge
there.
First
of
all,
I'm
really
glad
that
they
were
able
to
cut
down
the
time
that
this
will
be
close
to
going
from
600
to
150
days,
that's
fantastic,
so
that
is
unbelievable
and
I'm
sure
a
lot
of
people
will
be
very
appreciative
of
that,
because
it
will
be
a
little
painful
at
first.
G
On
the
amount
of
throughput
on
main
street
bridge
or
how
many
cars
actually
go,
or
pedestrians
or
bikes
go
over
that
per
day
per
month,
etc
just
trying
to
get
a
sense
of
the
the
the
impact
and
inconvenience
to
residents
trying
to
get
to
downtown,
or
vice
versa,
trying
to
get
to
the
on
the
other
side
of
the
city.
Do
we
do
we
have
those
numbers
and
where
I'm
going
with
that
which
I'll
get
to
my
second
question
is
just
on
the
on
the
outreach
I
just
feel
like.
G
We
need
to
start
that
a
little
bit
earlier,
we're
already
mid-march.
This
has
been
I'm
sorry
mid-january.
This
is
going
to
start
in
march
and
I
I
feel
like.
We
need
to
start
really-
and
I
know
you've
done
some
of
this
already,
but
just
being
a
little
bit
more
aggressive,
so
that
major
employers
can
start
working
on
a
plan
already
to
how
they're
going
to
address
this.
Now,
one
of
the
few
good
things
about
the
pandemic.
G
Is
that
not
everyone's
back
to
work
yet
so
that
will
certainly
help
or
they're
only
going
back
to
work
on
certain
days.
So
that's
great,
but
I'd
love
to
see
in
addition
to
taking
advantage
of
all
of
our
usual
traditional
digital
communication
channels
that
you
mentioned
craig
there.
But
perhaps
we
can
do
some
actual
individual
reaching
out
to
you
know
to
amazon
paccar.
You
know
whoever
else
we
need
to
connect
with
and
then.
G
Of
some
of
our
partners,
like
the
bda
and
the
bellevue
chamber,
I
think
it'd
be
great
if
we
can
get
connected
with
them
and
they
can
send
out
through
their
channels
as
well
about
this
closure
and
the
amount
of
time
that
it
will
be
closed
and
the
detour
routes
that
they
are
aware
of
before
they
get
there
and
surprised
during
their
morning
commute.
Hopefully
they
won't
be
surprised
if
that
portable
messaging
out
there
for
a
week
or
two,
but
you
know
maybe
they're
on
vacation,
they
didn't
know
and
all
of
a
sudden.
G
W
Yeah,
absolutely
there
are
a
couple
parts
to
that.
As
far
as
impact
for
traffic
analysis,
we
did
do
a
traffic
analysis.
I
do
not
have
the
numbers
with
me
offhand,
but
that's
definitely
something
we
can
follow
up
with,
but
we
did
do
traffic
analysis
for
impact
of
the
detour
and
the
full
closure
weekend
and
the
long-term
closure.
So
we'll
definitely
follow
up
that
information
we
do
have
some
other
briefings
scheduled.
Bda
is
definitely
one
of
them.
W
We
just
briefed
the
chamber
I
think
a
week
ago,
but
we
wanted
to
let
you
folks
know.
First
before
we
let
the
cat
out
of
the
bag,
but
we
do
have
a
very
aggressive
outreach
schedule
planned
basically
starting
tomorrow,
so
we
do
have
some.
I
believe
door-to-door
we've
been
already
making
some
phone
calls
getting
some
contacts
working
with
a
city
staff
to
really
get
a
big
hold
of
our
resources
to
get
a
hold
of
businesses
and
things
like
that
for
the
impacts
and
again
the
mailings.
A
I
think
we'll
have
council
member
stokes
start
and
then
we'll
come
back
to
you.
While
you
work
on
your
audio
exactly.
R
Y
That's
right:
I
appreciate
that
working
with
westard,
you
know
bobby,
has
a
great
long
time,
long
term
experience
with
lifestyle
and
the
405
I
remember
20
years
ago,
or
maybe
how
we
built
this
texas
tea
party.
You
know
that's
the
biggest
project
value
has
in
working
in
transportation
freeway.
You
know
over
a
hundred,
some
million
dollars
and
it's
it's
a
pretty
big
project
and
the
city
and
the
washington
has
worked
very
well
to
to
minimize
the
interruption.
Y
Obviously,
for
projects
like
that,
you
know
create
a
lot
of
traffic,
405
congestion
and
all
that
stuff,
and
so
you
know
the
people
have
changed.
You
know
our
long-time
employees
have
since
muslim
have
left,
and
I
assume
much
that
similarly
is
the
case,
but
I
think
the
relationship
has
continued.
Y
There
are
many
things
they
did
collaboratively.
I
think
that's
what
I
wanted
to
find
out.
I
think
jennifer
robertson,
already
kind
of
mentioned
that
and
you
work
with
the
engineers
on
both
sides
and
people
are
now
information.
Folks,
we
were
utilizing
science
sign
boards,
electronic
signs,
all
kinds
of
stuff
and
many
new
signs,
whatever
that
we
believe
that
you
will
interrupt
the
people's.
Y
You
know
traffic
flow
and
patent,
and
you
know
you
just
suggested
the
chamber
and
all
that
business
people
that
folk
right
now
we're
gonna
look
at
20,
30
000,
more
people
working.
Well,
I
don't
know
what
the
sequence
would
be,
whether
that
would
be
impact
that
would
be
felt,
but
regardless
you're
going
to
see
many
thousands
of
people
coming
with
data
in
and
out
you
know,
downtown
mobility
is
always
a
consideration,
big
challenge.
How
do
you
move
people
in
even
with
october
19?
Y
You
know
people
are
coming
back,
so
I
I'm
not
sure
you
know
by
looking
at
the
map.
Is
there
any
traffic
going
to
be
interrupted
on
the
freeway
itself,
405
or
just
the
bridge,
or
what.
Y
Y
But
regardless
just
anyway,
you
know,
I
never
know
what
the
situation
might
lead
you
to,
but
I
think
it's
better
to
be
prepared
and
then
trying
to
figure
out
when
it
happens
right
in
scramble.
So
I
would
appreciate
your
voice
end
up.
You
know,
working
with
the
city
and
watch
that
staff
figuring
out
what
potential
congestion
might
be
or
delay
might
be
or
interruption
might
be,
and
you
have
signs
adequate
signs
and
all
communication
tools
to
be
ready
to
be
deployed.
Y
W
Y
Z
Yeah,
I
appreciate
the
comments
so
far
and
the
presentation-
it's
very
thorough.
I
happen
to
live
very
close
to
where
this
is
going
to
take
place
up
on
woodridge
and
you
know,
come
up
on
either
the
connector
or
southeast,
sixth
or
eighth
or
old
enough
to
fourth
and
it's
when
I
the
more,
I
think
about
it,
there's
a
wide
area.
That's
actually
gonna
be
pretty
well
affected,
and
this
is
one
of
the
most
congested
areas
in
bellevue
in
the
morning
and
particularly
in
the
evening.
Z
So
I'm
assuming
that
your
outreach
is
going
to
go
beyond
what
you're
kind
of
been
talking
about.
It's
not
just
just
around
the
4th
street.
I
mean
main
street
bridge,
but
it's
going
to
have
an
impact
all
the
way
across
to
the
connector
up
to
116th
and
around
that.
So,
and
you
know,
cutting
up
it
through.
Woodridge
is,
as
we
found
several
you
know
years
ago
now,
with
the
impacts
of
more
people
coming
in
that
people
find
ways
to
go,
it's
going
to
be
it's
going
to
be
really
tough.
Z
So
I
appreciate
the
outreach-
and
I
think
the
war,
the
better
and
particularly
even
going
down
richards
road
and
letting
people
know
what
they're
going
to
face
when
they
come
through,
particularly
in
the
early
stages
of
this,
because
people
are
going
to
come
in
there
and
all
of
a
sudden
bam
they're.
All
these
cars
all
stopped
and
everything
else.
It's
it's.
It's
a
it's
a
big
job,
but
I
do
appreciate
your
you
know
the
planning
on
this
and
it's
exciting
to
move
this
forward
and
hope
you
can.
Z
You
know
really
stick
to
the
to
the
the
plan.
I
mean
you
know
things
always
change,
but
it's
pretty
exciting
and
I
think
the
community
just
getting
out
and
letting
people
around
in
the
community
know
because
you
know
we
go
back
and
forth
and
it's
again
that's
a
very
complex
roadway
system
through
that
area,
and
so
it's
going
to
be
a
lot
of
congestion
and
all
that.
Z
So
you
know
that,
but
I
just
want
to
emphasize
that
that
the
more
information,
the
better
and
working
with
the
different
neighborhood
groups
and
getting
stuff
out
to
everybody
is
going
to
be
very,
very
critical
and
anything
else
we
can
do
to
help.
Let
us
know
so
thanks
very
much
and
looking
forward
to
it
absolutely
thank
you.
F
Yes,
I
would
so
I
appreciate
the
the
presentation
and
you
know
finding
ways
to
limit
the
impact
as
much
as
possible.
So
I
think
that
this
is
a
very
good
plan
and
the
comment
about
making
sure
that
that
we
continue
to
have
funding,
so
we
can
actually
finish.
The
whole
project
is
important,
but
if
nothing
else
we
can
get
this
part
of
renton
to
bellevue
complete.
F
You
know.
I
also
appreciate
the
comprehensive
outreach.
I
echo
my
colleagues
about
this
part
of
405.
It's
not
just
people
coming
in
and
out
of
bellevue.
It's
also
ones
going
from
renton
all
the
way
up
to
bothell
woodenville,
so
making
sure
that
that
communication
works
well.
So
to
that
end,
I'm
wondering
about
for
these
kind
of
closures.
F
Is
there
communication
with
google
maps
so
that
the
maps
themselves
are
adjusted
for
the
fact
that
this
closure
exists
and
then
I'm
thinking
to
council
member
stokes's
point
those
side
streets
that
we're
now
going
to
be
using
for
traffic?
F
I
am
assuming
that
we're
you're
going
to
work
closely
with
our
transportation
department
so
that,
with
our
adaptive
signals
that
they
can
be
adjusted
to
make
sure
that,
from
a
queuing
standpoint,
we
don't
end
up
with
too
much
backlog
in
any
one
of
those
streets
to
make
sure
that
traffic
is
able
to
keep
going
and
then
the
importance
of
staying
on
schedule.
So
I
think
you
understand
the
importance
of
that.
I
guess
my
question
related
to
that
is
that
we
are
now
in
day.
F
I
can't
remember
40
something
of
the
concrete
strike
that
has
impacted
a
number
of
different
projects.
I'd
like
to
understand
whether
for
this
work,
where
granted
we're
starting
demo
in
march,
but
there
may
be
a
backlog
of
demand
for
concrete
and
delivery,
so
just
wanted
to
understand
whether
that's
been
factored
into
your
mitigation
plan
and
planning.
So
those
were
my
questions
thanks.
W
I
think
there
was
a
couple
of
things
there
as
far
as
traffic
optim-
optimization.
Yes,
we're
definitely
working
with
the
city's
traffic
folks
to
kind
of
optimize
light
timing.
Anything
like
that.
We're
also
providing
a
little
bit
of
extra
capacity
by
repurposing
the
hov
lane
there,
I
believe,
on
northeast
4th
street
8th
street.
W
Don't
quote
me
I'll
have
to
look
that
one
up,
but
I
know
we
were
definitely
working
with
the
city's
traffic
operations
folks
to
monitor
it
over
time
too,
as
we
have
the
the
full
closure
on
on
main
street
there.
As
far
as
our
contingencies,
I
mean
there's
you'll
mention
we
have
a
lot
of
components
that
are
happening
ahead
of
this.
We
need
to
do
some
re-striping,
that's
weather
dependent.
There
are
some
external
challenges
with
the
trades
with
strikes
that
happen.
W
You
know
as
far
as
what
getting
materials
and
things
like
that,
hopefully,
ken
horton
can
speak
a
little
bit
more
to
the
process
of
ordering
girders
and
things
like
that,
but
generally
big
components
like
that
have
a
really
long
lead
time
that
we've
been
working
to
procure
ahead
of
anything
like
this.
So
hopefully
we
can
get
through
the
concrete
strike
without
too
much
delay.
X
X
X
We
do
our
first
foundation
footing
so
we're
hopeful
that
the
the
strikes
resolved
within
eight
weeks,
but
there
will
be
some
pressure
on
the
industry
because
everybody
who's
been
suffering
now
is
going
to
need
concrete,
but
we
think
we
have
some
good
relationships
with
our
our
vendors
and
they
understand
the
priorities
that
we
have
and
the
importance
of
the
bellevue
main
street
bridge
project,
so
we're
gonna
leverage
those
to
get
some
some
better
service
than
maybe
some
other
contractors
do.
W
Then
your
other
comment
about
google
maps
councilmembers
on.
We
do
work
with
google
maps
our
system,
we
plug
in
our
closures
and
actually
goes,
google
maps
kind
of
recognizes
it
and
it
basically
duplicates
what
we
install
into
our
system.
So
if
you
go
to
the
watchdog
website,
it
will
show
the
construction
closures
and
they're
basically
mirrored
on
google
apps.
A
So
I'll,
just
close
with
I'm
really
impressed
with
the
schedule
of
the
main
street
work
that
you're
going
to
do
and
if
you
can
actually
pull
that
off.
That's
going
to
be
super
impressive
and
very
little
impact
to
the
city
which
we
appreciate.
A
I
wanted
to
ask
you
about
the
ped
bike
path
going
over
I-405
the,
because
there
had
been
a
lid
over
there
that
reduced
the
noise
to
woodridge
and
now
we're
going
to
be
replacing
it,
which
is
good,
and
I
wonder
what
the
schedule
is
of
that
will
be
like
when
will
that
be
completed
and
what
the
noise
impact
might
be
for
the
surrounding
neighborhoods
and
then
what
the
experience
will
be
for
the
people
using
that
path.
W
I
believe
you're
talking
about
the
pedestrian
bridge
for
the
east
trail
is
that
correct.
W
Over
southbound,
can
I
don't
suppose
you
know
what
the
schedule
is
for
construction
of
that
I
know
we
have
had
some
work
on
there,
that's
being
affected
by
the
concrete
for
right
now,.
X
X
We
have
the
girders
cast,
so
it's
just
a
scheduling
once
the
concrete
strikes
over.
We
can
actually
pour
our
abutments.
Then
we'll
actually
have
a
a
set
schedule
for
girders,
but
it's
definitely
in
our
works
for
this
year
in
three
month.
Time
frame
is
what
we're
looking
for
as
long
as
the
strike
doesn't
affect
us
any
further
than
it
already
has.
A
Okay,
that's
great,
can
you
describe
what
the
experience
will
be
for
the
like?
How
wide
is
this
going
to
be
for
the
users
of
it.
X
It's
approximately
a
24
foot
wide
bridge
over
the
highway.
It's
it's
four
girders
approximately
six
foot
on
center.
It's
pretty
long
bridge,
160
foot
long!
So
it's
one
continuous
span
over
the
highway
yeah.
A
Okay,
that
sounds
good
and
thank
you
and
then
I
just
want
to
reiterate
what
councilmember
barksdale
said
as
somebody
who
rides
a
bike.
I
know
when
we
have
these
construction
projects.
It
seems
that
the
worker
is
always
inadvertently
put
their
signs
in
the
bike
lanes
or
on
the
sidewalks,
and
so
I
just
want
to
make
sure
that
we're
creating
a
safe
environment
for
people
who
are
having
to
detour
or
go
through
some
of
these
construction
areas.
So,
looking
forward
to
seeing
you
pull
this
off,
thank
you
so
much.
A
M
Yes,
mayor,
the
next
two
study
session
topics
are
related
to
public
safety.
The
first
topic
is
an
informational
update
on
the
police
department's
ongoing
progress
to
review
the
department's
use
of
force
policies
identified
in
the
oir
report
and
then
the
second
topic
that
we'll
roll
right
into
after
the
oir
update
is
with
regard
to
the
proposed
use
of
body-worn
cameras.
M
AA
Thank
you
brian
good
evening,
mayor
robinson,
deputy
mayor,
doing
allison
city
council
members.
I'm
pleased
to
be
here
to
provide
you
with
a
progress
report
regarding
the
bellevue
police
department's
responsiveness
to
the
recommendations
identified
in
the
office
of
independent
reviews
report
concerning
the
bellevue
police
department's
use
of
force
policy.
AA
The
oir
group
actively
sought
out
and
encouraged
community
engagement
and
input
receiving
over
a
thousand
responses
from
community
members
after
incorporating
the
overall
feedback
they
issued.
The
final
report
in
april
of
2021
will
now
discuss
the
bellevue
police
department's
responsiveness
to
the
oir
report
covering
the
fourth
quarter
of
2021.
AA
AA
The
majority
of
the
12
recommendations
were
focused
on
the
updates
related
to
the
use
of
less
lethal
force,
primarily
tasers
and
impact
projectiles
here's
a
list
of
the
changes.
Many
of
these
recommendations
have
been
common
practice
for
the
bellevue
police
department
and
we
took
this
opportunity
to
write
them
into
our
policy.
AA
AA
We
have
updated
our
taser
policy
concerning
these
recommendations
by
restricting
simultaneous
deployments
of
multiple
tasers,
limiting
the
length
of
taser
applications
to
five
seconds,
except
in
exigent
circumstances,
requiring
officers
to
reassess
the
threat
before
redeploying
a
taser
and
limiting
the
number
and,
lastly,
requiring
medical
response.
After
a
taser
application.
AA
AA
After
careful
consideration
and
consultation
with
department
subject
matter,
experts
I've
concluded
that
this
action
would
not
be
in
the
best
interest
of
public
safety
and
could
compromise
our
opportunity
to
safely
and
effectively
protect
this
community.
We
will
therefore
not
be
publishing
our
tactical
munitions
on
the
city
website.
AA
Lastly,
I'd
like
to
address
oir
recommendation
regarding
37
implementation
of
body,
worn
cameras,
the
bellevue
police
and
the
city
have
been
researching
body,
worn
cameras
for
a
couple
of
years.
Now
what
the
oir
report
confirmed
is
that
there
is
a
unanimous
agreement
that
our
officers
should
be
equipped
with
body-worn
cameras.
AA
AB
Sorry
about
that,
I
swear.
I
wasn't
going
to
do
that.
We
have
been
very
active
on
the
community
engagement
fund.
In
fact,
just
about
a
year
ago,
we
heard
very
loud
and
clear
from
our
community
that
we
wanted.
They
wanted
more
information
and
transparency
from
the
police
department
about
what
we
do
and
how
we
do
it
now.
AB
We've
also
created
an
engaging
bellevue
webpage
to
inform
the
community
about
the
use
of
force
policy
reforms
that
you
heard
about
tonight
and
the
body
worn
camera
program.
This
site
helps
us,
be
more
transparent
and
engage
with
the
community
through
education
and
feedback
now
included
with
the
engaging
bellevue
site
chief
shirley
created
a
video
message
on
the
projects
that
we're
talking
about,
and
we've
been
able
to
use
this
video
to
help
with
engagement
and
communications.
AB
You
can
find
that
progress
report
on
the
engaging
building
site
and
also
our
police
website,
and
last
week
we
held
a
community
meeting
to
update
the
public
on
the
use
of
forced
policy
reforms,
including
the
body-worn
cameras.
This
meeting
was
well
attended
and
the
engagement
was
quite
robust.
Our
team
was
able
to
answer
dozens
of
questions
and
clear
up
any
confusion
about
the
process.
AB
This
january
12
meeting
was
the
initial
community
rollout
of
the
bodyboard
camera
program
moving
forward.
We
are
committed
to
ongoing
community
outreach
and
engagement.
Now,
that's
going
to
include
news
releases,
social
media
posts,
engaging
bellevue,
it's
your
city
and
neighborhood
news
publications
and
we
also
be
holding
future
public
meetings
with
the
public
and
stakeholder
groups
like
our
advisory
councils.
Again,
our
commitment
is
to
engage,
to
gather
feedback,
to
inform
and
to
educate.
AB
Now
the
initial
feedback
is
overwhelmingly
supportive
for
a
body-worn
camera
program.
We
conduct
a
quick
poll
during
the
virtual
meeting
to
gauge
the
support.
Now
the
poll
showed
94
percent
support,
bodyboard
cameras
and
while
it's
certainly
not
a
scientific
fold,
it
does
piggyback
well
of
what
the
oir
group
learned,
and
that
is
that
the
community
support
for
bodyboard
cameras
is
incredibly
strong.
Q
Thank
you
chief
shirley
good
evening
again
council,
as
the
chief
mentioned,
or
we're
here
tonight,
to
talk
not
only
about
the
oir
update,
but
also
a
proposed
resolution.
So
we
are
seeking
direction
from
the
council
on
a
resolution
that
would
do
two
things
one.
Q
It
would
authorize
the
police
department
to
use
body-worn
cameras
consistent
with
some
further
decisions
and
actions
that
the
council
will
need
to
make,
and,
secondly,
it
will
identify
additional
opportunities
for
community
involvement
beyond
all
of
those
you've
already
heard
about
from
the
police
department
staff
tonight
to
give
the
community
an
opportunity
for
even
further
involvement
in
the
development
of
the
operational
policies
that
will
be
needed
to
implement
body-worn
cameras.
Q
As
has
been
mentioned,
there
is
a
state
law
that
strongly
encourages
cities
to
adopt
ordinances
or
resolutions
authorizing
the
use
of
body-worn
cameras
before
law
enforcement
starts
using
them
and
also
says
that
that
same
ordinance
or
resolution
should
identify
community
involvement
opportunities
for
folks
to
have
input
into
the
development
of
those
operational
policies.
So
the
proposed
resolution
that
was
attached
to
the
agenda
memo
in
your
packet
would
meet
those
state
law
requirements.
Q
Not
only
will
they
authorize
the
police
department
to
use
the
cameras,
but
it
will
also
identify
the
additional
opportunities
for
the
community
and
some
of
which
miss
miss
black
mentioned,
which
is
additional
meetings
with
the
public
council
advisory
police
advisory
council.
Excuse
me
and
other
stakeholder
meetings,
so
I've
mentioned
there
are
additional
actions
that
will
need
to
come
before
the
council.
So
you
may
ask:
why
are
you
here
now
and
the
reason
is
because
this
gives
the
council
an
opportunity?
Q
Should
you
wish
to
do
so
to
timely,
weigh
in
on
the
community
involvement
which
is
ongoing
now
and
is
consistent
with
the
state
law
which
talks
about
having
a
resolution
in
place
that
identifies
community
involvement.
So
that
is
why
we're
here
now
seeking
direction,
but
there
are,
will
be
a
number
of
other
actions
that
the
council
will
need
to
take
and
decisions
they'll
need
to
make
the
the.
Q
If
the
council
adopts
a
resolution
as
proposed
or
a
resolution,
then
the
steering
committee
that
was
mentioned
made
up
of
multiple
departments
who
are
affected
by
this
program
will
then
move
forward
with
the
additional
actions
which
include
negotiating
with
the
unions.
Also,
negotiating
a
contract
with
a
vendor
and
further
assessing
staffing
needs
for
multiple
affected
departments
in
order
to
implement
the
program,
and
then
staff
will
be
back
at
a
later
date
to
seek
council's
authorization
of
any
agreement
with
the
unions,
any
agreement
with
the
vendor
and
some
additional
staffing
issues
as
well.
Q
So
again,
the
the
request
of
counsel
tonight
is
seeking
direction
to
bring
back
at
a
future
meeting
a
resolution
that
would
authorize
the
use
of
body-worn
cameras
and
identify
additional
community
involvement
opportunities,
and
we
have
again
proposed
a
resolution
for
your
consideration.
That
would
do
those
things
so
with
that
too.
Surely,
unless
you
have
anything
further,
we
can
turn
it
to
you
mayor
to
for
for
the
council,
to
ask
questions
and
to
provide
some
direction.
A
Thank
you
would
you
mind
putting
up
the
slide
with
the
proposed
resolution
on
it.
A
You
go.
Thank
you.
So
any
comments
or
questions.
I
see
deputy
mayor,
followed
by
councilmember
barksdale,
go
ahead.
Deputy
mayor.
G
Thank
you
mayor.
First
of
all,
it
was
mentioned
earlier,
but
I
want
to
personally
thank
officer.
I
believe
lyles,
montgomery
and
whitaker
yesterday
for
their
heroic
actions
and
somerset
and
pulling
out
the
couple
and
their
dog
from
that
house
that
had
slid
off
that
foundation.
G
Just
tremendous
work
there
and
I
just
wanted
to
acknowledge
them
chief
shirley,
a
great
great
work,
nearly
what
close
to
70
percent
of
the
way
there
and
a
big
thank
you
to
meegan
as
well,
for
just
the
tremendous
outreach
and
transparency
that
we
are
applying
to
what
we
were
already
doing
as
as
as
a
police
department
with
the
the
data
dashboard,
the
progress
on
the
on
the
recommendations
and
the
oir
report.
G
It's
just
really
great
to
see,
and-
and
I
also
want
to
thank
all
those
that
were
involved
in
that
call
that
we
had
with
the
community
and
what
a
it
was.
It
was
so
great,
so
many
great
questions
on
january
12th
and
I
think
that's
what
I've
been
one
of
the
for.
For
me.
One
of
the
great
benefits
of
this
process
as
well
is
that
we've
been
able
and
the
police
department's
been
able
to
really
educate
a
lot
of
residents
in
the
city.
G
In
terms
of
you
know,
standard
procedures
and
the
training
that
you
go
through,
and
the
scenarios
and
the
situations
that
officers
encountered
with
sometimes
on
a
daily
basis,
or
sometimes
not
at
all,
but
it's
been
it's
been
great
to
to
to
really
educate
and
inform,
as
well
as
given
the
progress
that
that
we've
made
not
only
on
the
oer
report
but
then
also
on
the
on
the
body-worn
cameras.
G
So,
as
was
mentioned
earlier,
this
is
something
that
I'm
tremendously
proud
of,
because
the
police
department's
been
working
on
this
even
before
the
oir
report
came
out.
So
that's
how
important
that
they
think
it
is
to
get
this
up
and
going,
and
certainly
based
on
that
poll,
although
be
it
unscientific,
certainly
there's
tremendous
interest
in
it
from
the
community
to
move
forward,
and
I
think
it's
a
great
way
to
protect
residents
as
well
as
police
officers.
G
So
I
am
in
full
support
of
the
resolution
and
moving
that
forward
tonight
and
to
continue
that
process
to
get
that
up
and
running
by
the
by
the
end
of
the
year.
I
think
that's
a
great
goal
to
be
set
and
I
can't
wait
till
that
is
running
in
full
steam
ahead.
So
those
are
my
comments
again.
Thank
you.
G
No
real
questions,
but
thank
you
again,
chief
shirley
and
and
meegan
for
the
for
the
great
presentation
and
all
the
great
work
as
we
continue
to
move
forward
on
this.
A
Council
member
barksdale,
followed
by
councilmember
lee.
E
All
right,
first
just
thank
you
for
the
update
and
also
your
attention
to
getting
through
the
recommendations
you
know
being
at
that
70
and
specifically
on
these
recommendations.
It
looks
like
these
are
the
ones
that
really
can
impact.
You
know
someone's
life,
and
so
I
really
appreciate
with
tasers
and
the
back
devices,
so
really
appreciate
the
progress
on
these.
These
recommendations,
in
addition
to
the
other
ones,
especially
these
and
the
community
outreach.
E
I
am
looking
forward
to
the
community
feedback
around
the
body,
worn
cameras.
I
support
it
obviously,
and
look
for-
and
I
support
the
resolution
specifically
interested
in
when,
when
you
come
back
in
the
conversation
around
the
release
of
body,
one
camera
data
and
sort
of
what
that
might
look
like
how
how
you'll
balance
transparency,
which
definitely
want,
but
also
the
privacy
of
the
people.
E
You
know
in
the
in
the
footage,
so
I
think
they're
both
values
that
we
just
have
to
figure
out
how
to
balance
but
support
the
transparency
for
sure
question
related
but
tangentially.
How
and
maybe
it's
not
related.
But
how
do
we
prevent-
or
we
were
talking
about
tasers
today-
and
there
was
an
incident
in
the
different
police
department
where
the
taser,
where
the
gun
was
pulled
instead
of
the
taser?
AA
Yeah
andrew
you
want
to
speak
to
that,
but
but
I'll
say
this,
when
that
incident
occurred,
probably
like
many
police
departments,
we
obviously
need
to
take
a
look
at
our
own
protocols
right
and
to
make
sure
that
our
training,
our
policies
are
in
place.
That
would
certainly
try-
and
you
know,
eliminate
an
incident
from
happening
like
that-
a
tragic
incident
but
andrew
you
can
speak
for
more
than
that.
AE
Absolutely,
sir!
Yes,
that
is
absolutely
something
we
take
into
our
training.
It's
not
just
the
training,
but
how
the
tool
is
worn
on
the
belt
as
well
to
make
sure
that
there
is
not
a
misidentification.
AE
That's
why
you'll
see
the
taser
worn
on
the
opposite
side
of
the
body
from
where
the
gun
is,
as
well
as
the
training
of
what
hand
the
taser
is
held
in
and
how
the
officers
transition
and
that's
something
that
we
take
very
seriously
here
in
bellevue
and
make
sure
we
integrate
that
into
our
training
itself,
to
try
to
reduce
the
likelihood
of
one
of
those
instances.
Instances
occurring.
Y
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
Chief
wow
job
well
done
very
impressive.
68
of
the
recommendation
you
already
yeah,
implemented
or
adopted.
Y
That's
just
you
know
amazing
well,
which
is
probably
we
expected
anyway,
with
the
high
standards,
the
the
quality
of
the
bobby
police
department,
but
the
fact
that
you
know
it's
specifically
you've
accomplished
it
and
that's
that's
a
very
commendable.
So
thank
you.
Thank
you
for
the
department
to
the
department
to
you
and
to
the
people
that
are
involved
with
this
and
I
for
sure
definitely
support
this
body.
Camera
recommendation,
I'm
looking
at
the.
Y
Languages
words
in
front
and
the
only
question
to
have
you
know
I
was
thinking
well
when
we
adopt
something
we
always
have
to
ask:
how
much
does
it
cost?
You
know,
what's
the
fiscal
impact
and
when
I
say
rare,
that
you
know
there's
no
fiscal
impact,
and
so
I'm
just
curious.
Y
You
know
the
way
that
you
framed
it
because
you
probably
need
to
have
our
action
in
order
to
have
community
involvement
and
the
fully
processed
necessary
to
provide
more
support
and
information
to
make
this
work
as
well
as
it
can
be.
Maybe
maybe
that's
the
question
the
reason,
so
you
say
you
have
to
authorize
the
use
of
bwc
prior
to
use,
so
I'm
not
quite
clear
on
what
is
the
the
the
timing
and
the
the
peace?
I
don't
quite
understand.
Y
We
authorize
you,
so
you
are
not
going
to
start
equip
equipping
your
personnel
yet,
but
you
are
just
going
to
go
through
the
process
and
go
to
do
more,
just
information
gathering
more
assessment.
Then
you
come
back
to
us
right
and
just
another
process
in
front
of
us.
So
I
just
want
a
little
bit
of
clarification.
Q
So
chief,
do
you
want
me
to
answer
that?
Or
do
we
want
to
answer
that?
You
can
start
kathy,
graham
sure,
so
so
yes,
there,
there
will
be
a
sequence
of
of
actions
that
will
need
to
occur
council,
member
lee
and
so
the
actual
use
the
the
authorization
of
the
use
that
the
council
would
be
giving
if
it
were
to
adopt.
Q
This
resolution
is
contingent
on
additional
future
actions
that
the
council
will
need
to
make
and
those
could
include
coming
back
with
an
agreement
if
agreement
is
reached
with
the
unions,
you
know
the
council
would
need
to
be
involved
in
that
also,
in
terms
of,
we
will
have
to
negotiate
a
vendor
contract
with
a
vendor
to
actually
provide
the
body-worn
camera
as
well
as
some
other
issues.
Perhaps
some
staffing
issues,
and
so
all
of
those
will
come
back.
We
will.
We
will
continue
efforts
to
move
those
things
forward.
Y
Q
So
if
there
are,
for
example,
agreements
after
collective
bargaining
agreements
and
negotiations
with
the
unions,
those
agreements
may
need
to
come
back
to
the
council
for
approval
the
agreements
themselves.
The
same
is
true
of
a
contract
with
the
vendor
so
to
to
provide
the
actual.
You
know
the
contract
that
the
vendor
will
then
use
to
implement
and
give
us
the
provide
us
with
the
you
know,
the
equipment
and
all
the
other
things
that
go
along
with
that.
Q
That
would
have
to
come
back
it's
another
example
of
something
that
would
have
to
come
back
to
the
council
as
well.
Y
But
so
I
just
want
to
lay
that
out.
You
know
kind
of
clear
clearly,
but
thank
you
for
explaining.
That's
that's
fine!
Okay!
Thank
you.
F
Yes,
thank
you.
Well,
I
I
appreciate
our
your
due
diligence
in
getting
the
recommendations
implemented
as
well.
I
agree
with
my
colleagues
it's
so
important
to
show
steady
progress
in
moving
forward
with
the
recommendations
and,
in
addition,
I
also
fully
support
the
implementation
of
the
body.
One
cameras,
the
community
engagement.
I
was
on
a
plane
when
we
had
the
outreach,
so
I.
F
I
think
that
is
so
important
what
you
talked
about
of
both
the
what
and
the
how
I
think
the
process
really
matters
and
the
more
that
our
communities
understand
the
better
off.
We
are,
and
I
also
appreciate
the
fact
that
what
you
talked
about
with
recommendation
number
34
was
that
we
aren't
just
taking
the
recommendations
at
face
value
if
there
is
one
where,
by
publishing
our
tactical
munitions,
that
it
puts
us
at
a
disadvantage
that
we
make
that
choice
not
to
have
that
recommendation,
and
I
support
that
on
the
data
dashboard.
F
In
addition
to
the
engaging
bell
view,
will
those
dashboards
be
added
to
the
annual
report
published
by
the
the
police
department
seems
like
that
would
be
a
good
addition
to
the
report
that
we
already
generate
every
year
and
then
to
council.
Member
lee's
point,
I
think,
maybe
I
didn't
completely
understand.
F
So
we
are
pursuing
getting
the
contract
negotiating
with
the
collective
bargaining,
but
there
will
be
a
point
where
and
hopefully
before
we
discuss
the
budget-
the
next
biennial
budget,
where
we
will
understand
the
cost
of
inking
that
contract
purchasing
the
cameras,
as
well
as
the
cost
for
maintaining
the
the
data.
So
I'm
still
a
little
unclear
on
that.
So
if
you
could
maybe
help
me
with
the
timing
for
that
and
then
lastly,
the
15
remaining
recommendations
still
to
go.
Can
you
talk
a
little
bit
about
the
a
summary
of
what
they
are?
F
AA
We
will
start
with
the
last
question.
First
in
terms
of
the
15
remaining
joe,
you
want
to
give
this
a
real
general
overview
of
what
those
are
and
but
to
but
to
the
question
of
timing.
As
we've
been
doing
with
all
of
these,
we
are
being
very
intentional
to
be
frank
daily
in
terms
of
looking
at
each
of
them.
The
impact
right
the
benefits.
AA
Maybe
there
aren't
some
benefits
for
it,
how
it
impacts
other
groups
and
making
sure
that
we
are
addressing
them
as
as
as
quickly
quite
frankly
as
possible.
So
there's
no
real
lag
time,
and
so
I
think
our
goal
is
to
have
all
of
these
done
by
by
june
of
20
of
this
year
and,
if
not
sooner
so,
we're
being
very
intentional
and
aggressive
about
getting
through
all
of
these,
because
we
do
think
it's
it's
having.
AA
AC
AC
We
expected
to
have
more
to
be
to
be
honest
at
this
meeting,
but
there
was
some
just
last
minute
review
that
needed
to
occur,
and
so
we
you
know
we
there.
There
are
there's
one
policy,
that's
going
to
affect
seven
different
recommendations
that
we
have
almost
ready
to
go
and
there's
another
policy
regarding
civil
disturbance
and,
first
amendment
assemblies.
AC
That's
connected
to
one
recommendation.
We
also
have
an
officer-involved
shooting
policy
that
needs
to
be
updated.
It
has
been
updated,
there's
a
number
of
policies
that
we've
got
basically
waiting
in
the
wings
to
implement,
but
we
still
have
to
go
through
the
process
of
review
and
final
approval.
So
we
don't
anticipate
that
there's.
AC
There
may
be
some
bargaining
issues
involved
in
some
of
those,
and
so
we
can't
really
predict
exactly
how
long
that's
going
to
take,
but
we're
hoping
you
know
by
the
the
next
quarter
to
have
the
majority
of
these
completed,
if
not
all,.
AA
Yeah
and
just
to
add
to
that
council
members
on
some
of
them
are
used
to
force
reporting
requirements.
De-Escalation,
you
know,
when
an
officer
responds
to
a
call,
there's
certain
information
that
he
or
she
needs
to
make
sure
is
in
that
report.
De-Escalation
was
an
opportunity
to
do
that
or
not
and
then
there's
a
supervisory
review
portion
of
some
of
the
policies
as
well,
that
we
will
be
requiring
supervisors
to
to
review
certain
things
and
that's
all
for
training
purposes
right
for
another
incident
to
make
sure
we're
getting
it
right.
AA
There's
also
another
recommendation,
as
it
relates
to
an
early
warning
system
for
officers
and
it's
basically
a
threshold
type
system
where,
if
an
officer
begins
to
get
two
three
four
complaints
say
hypothetically
in
a
year
we
take
we
pause.
We
take
a
look
at
the
situations
and
see
maybe
there's
a
training
issue
there
that
the
officer
didn't
get.
Maybe
there's
some
adjustment
we
need
to
make,
and
so
that
way
you
know
we
can
help
the
officer
better,
serve
the
community
and
and,
as
joe
said,
also
involves
shooting
policies
and
a
little
civil
disturbance.
AA
F
Well,
thank
you
for
your
thoughtfulness,
like
from
what
I'm
hearing
the
very
process
of
vetting
them,
we're
gonna
we're.
We
are
better
together.
A
F
I
was
re-asking,
maybe
the
question
that
from
council
member
lee
related
to
the
budget
timing
and
making
sure
that,
as
we
look
at
the
cost,
to
fully
support
the
body-worn
camera
implementation
that
we
were
going
to
have
known
cost
in
time
for
a
bi-annual
budget
or
just
reinforcing
that
question
of.
Is
that
indeed
the
case.
AA
Well,
there's
definitely
a
steering
committee
that
is
certainly
going
to
have
to
review
costs
right,
and
so
the
steering
committee
meets
weekly
bi-weekly
and
that
process
is
still
ongoing
as
well.
So
I
can't
say
what
exact
time
they
will
have
a
final
cost,
but
the
steering
committee
certainly
is
addressing
that
issue.
Q
And
again
I
think,
as
the
chief
mentioned,
you
know,
the
the
some
of
these
precise
timing
is
not
totally
within
our
control,
but
we're
moving
as
quickly
as
possible
with
a
goal
towards
middle
of
the
year
or
third
quarter
of
the
year.
D
Thank
you.
This
has
been
a
really
good
discussion
and
I
really
appreciate
the
detail
and
the
critical
thinking
that's
going
into
each
of
these
recommendations
and
making
sure
that
we
implement
them
in
the
best
way
possible
the
as
a
follow-up.
D
I
I
feel
like
we're
beating
the
dead
horse,
but
I
thought
we
as
far
as
the
budget
impacts
of
the
bodybuilding
cameras.
I
thought
we
appropriated
some
money
for
this
program
already
didn't
we.
M
Oh,
can
I
go
ahead
and
weigh
in
here
and
I
speak?
Can
you
hear
me
this
is
brad.
You
know
we
did
appropriate
some
money
in
the
budget
as
a
placeholder
and
if
I
can
I'd
like
to
call
on
deputy
city
manager
nathan
a
comment
to
expand
on
that.
AD
Thank
you
thank
you,
city
manager,
miyake
and
his
councilmember
robertson,
and
the
others
who
were
asking
about
the
the
budgetary
concerns
the
council
did
approve
some
so
that
we
could
do
the
research
and
start
to
work
on
our
policies
and,
as
chief
wendell
shirley
pointed
out,
there's
a
steering
committee
committed
to
making
sure
that
we
have
everything
we
need
to
know
to
be
ready
for
the
next
budget
cycle
so
that
we
can
fully
fund
with
everything
that
we
have
knowledge
of
at
that
time.
D
Super
that
that
really
helps
clarify-
because
I
did
remember
having
this
discussion
last
year
or
two
years
ago
and
making
sure
that
we
appropriated
some
money
so
to
that
end,
I'm
hugely
supportive
of
the
bodyworm
camera
program,
and
I
would
also
we
have
the
this
is
a
regular
meeting
of
the
council.
We
absolutely
can
take
action
on
that
resolution
tonight.
It
was
in
the
packet.
I
would
suggest
that
we
do
so
so
that
we
can
keep
this
process
moving.
D
So
I
support
that
and
then
I
just
want
to
put
a
plug
in
and
if
and
if,
chief
shirley
or
brad
or
nathan,
if
you
have
any
input
on
this,
in
addition
to
looking
at
the
budgetary
costs
of
implementing
the
oir
report
of
implementing
the
bodyboard
and
cameras,
we
have
been
looking
at
how
to
plan
for
the
growth
that
we
have
coming
to
bellevue,
both
in
terms
of
residential
and
business
and
the
opening
of
light
rail,
all
of
which
is
going
to
make
public
safety
a
little
bit
more
complicated
need
for
keeping
up
with
the
level
of
service.
D
So
I
know
that
when
we
did
the
police
staffing
study
two
three
years
ago,
we
part
of
the
consultant
purchase
of
that
with
that
vendor
was
the
algorithm
to
look
at
staffing.
D
It's
not
just
equipment,
it's
people
too,
it's
the
human
capital,
so
that
we
can
make
sure
that
we
have
a
police
budget
that
really
reflects
the
values
of
the
bellevue
community
and
that
also
keeps
ahead
of
the
growth.
So
I
don't
know
if
that's
already,
if
that's
already
in
the
works,
I'd
love
to
hear
about
that
otherwise
I'll
just
put
a
plug
in
so
that
you'll
know
that
I
will
be
asking
for
this
as
we
move
into
budget
time.
Thanks.
M
M
You
mentioned
a
key
ingredient
of
of
what
we're
going
to
have
to
take
a
look
at
and
that's
the
growth
of
the
city,
which
involves
not
only
police
but
probably
every
department
in
the
city.
So
we
will
be
prepared
to
bring
something
back
to
you
this
year
to
talk
about
not
only
the
police
but
other
departments
as
well.
D
A
Z
I
think
this
has
been
a
great
conversation.
I'm
really
excited
and
pleased
with
the
progress
we've
made
and
the
I
think
very
significant
improvement
of
our
of
an
already
really
really
good
police
department.
I
think
we
should
be
proud
of
that,
and
I
want
to
assure
that
you
know
we
made
great
progress
and
that
we
were
we're
on
a
path
of
continual
improvement
as
we
go
along,
because
that's
the
way
you
learn
and
grow
and
become
even
better.
Z
I
support
absolutely
the
resolution
for
body
cameras
and
I
agree
with
my
colleague
councilmember
robertson
that
we
should
just
go
ahead
and
adopt
that
right
now.
I
think
that's
that's
really
important
for
us
to
do
this
on
the
questions
been
raised
about,
maybe
the
the
funding
or
the
cost
of
it.
This
is
not
a.
This
is
not
a
an
action
that
is
going
to
be
cost
constrained.
We
have
to
do
this
and
I
I
think
we
all
agree.
Z
We
want
to
do
this
and
it's
just
a
question.
I
thought
it
was
really
most
just
a
question
when
this
comes
up,
so
if
we
can
get
this
done
by
the
budget
next
year,
that
would
be
great
and
I'm
sure
we're
gonna.
Have
it
done
in
a
very
good.
You
know
cost
effective
manner,
but
I
I
really
appreciate
a
tremendous
you
know
it's
it's
hard
to
say
this,
because
we
all
believe
and
on
based
on
on
what
we've
seen
that
we
have
a
really
really
good
police
department.
Z
I
think
we're
going
to
a
great
police
department.
There
have
been
some
substantial
changes
that
have
bring
it
into
the
more
modern.
You
know
action
going
forward
and
I
think
there
are
a
lot
of
other
things
that
are
still
in
the
pipeline
that
will
increase
this
and
provide
much
much
better
service
to
the
public,
which
is
what
we
want
to
do,
and
I
also
one
of
the
things
you
always
have
to
keep
in
mind
is
that
we
have
such
a
great
working
relationship
with
the
fire
department
as
well.
Z
So
I
think
in
public
safety
we're
just
making
some
really
strong
steps
forward
and
it's
great
to
see
the
leadership
bringing
us
to
this
point
and
as
a
council,
we
really
support
this
and
we
want
to
you
know,
move
forward.
So
I'm
excited
about
it
and
ready
to,
as
I
said,
ready
to
vote
on
a
resolution
to
authorize
the
use
of
body
cameras,
body,
worn
cameras
by
the
police
department
and
identify
additional
community
involvement.
A
Thank
you
so
I'll
make
a
comment,
and
then
we
can
have
a
motion
after
that
it
just
it
seems.
Sometimes
it
takes
us
a
long
time
to
get
things
done
like
this
important
things,
but
boy
when
we
do
them.
I
feel
like
we
do
such
an
excellent
job.
This
has
been
a
very
thoughtful
process.
I've
appreciated
the
community
input.
I've
been
participating.
